just a 128 00:07:44,970 --> 00:07:40,270 chance meeting back in 1992 I organized 129 00:07:49,320 --> 00:07:44,980 an event I believe it was in June of the 130 00:07:52,800 --> 00:07:49,330 year in Palm Springs California the 131 00:07:57,320 --> 00:07:52,810 event was a celebration of the fiftieth 132 00:08:01,110 --> 00:07:57,330 year a half-century of the UFO contactee 133 00:08:04,820 --> 00:08:01,120 movement and we invited the people like 134 00:08:08,640 --> 00:08:04,830 Gabriel Greene who ran for president in 135 00:08:12,480 --> 00:08:08,650 1964 it was a burr you know in 64 and 136 00:08:16,080 --> 00:08:12,490 then gayben 64 century apart but what 137 00:08:18,810 --> 00:08:16,090 the heck is the difference right and who 138 00:08:23,340 --> 00:08:18,820 else did we had we had the nephew of 139 00:08:26,910 --> 00:08:23,350 George Van Tassel who of course had many 140 00:08:29,370 --> 00:08:26,920 contacts there near giant rock in the 141 00:08:32,510 --> 00:08:29,380 mojave desert just outside of Joshua 142 00:08:35,940 --> 00:08:32,520 Tree and a whole bevy of other 143 00:08:39,930 --> 00:08:35,950 contactees and alumina alumina Rees from 144 00:08:44,010 --> 00:08:39,940 the world of flying saucer dumb with a 145 00:08:45,570 --> 00:08:44,020 concentration on the earlier years not 146 00:08:48,060 --> 00:08:45,580 that I've ever been a big believer 147 00:08:50,310 --> 00:08:48,070 necessarily in the contactees but it was 148 00:08:53,580 --> 00:08:50,320 a very interesting movement and it 149 00:08:55,530 --> 00:08:53,590 certainly harmed no one I mean what is a 150 00:08:57,960 --> 00:08:55,540 prophet by any of the selling a few of 151 00:09:00,390 --> 00:08:57,970 books if in order to do that they'd have 152 00:09:02,430 --> 00:09:00,400 to set out at George Van Tassel's giant 153 00:09:05,390 --> 00:09:02,440 rock airport in the hundred and five 154 00:09:09,240 --> 00:09:05,400 degree heat so that's certainly 155 00:09:11,130 --> 00:09:09,250 certainly no big scam and in my eyes and 156 00:09:13,590 --> 00:09:11,140 of course George Van Tassel built his 157 00:09:16,790 --> 00:09:13,600 integratron out there in Landers 158 00:09:19,850 --> 00:09:16,800 California it still stands to this day 159 00:09:24,410 --> 00:09:19,860 anyway it was a weekend long conference 160 00:09:27,810 --> 00:09:24,420 and we started setting

that had taken the rooms in the 164 00:09:36,810 --> 00:09:34,660 hotel and and people were starting to 165 00:09:39,060 --> 00:09:36,820 wander around and of course people were 166 00:09:40,820 --> 00:09:39,070 downstairs where we were setting up the 167 00:09:44,130 --> 00:09:40,830 vendors tables in the ticket area 168 00:09:45,720 --> 00:09:44,140 watching me unpack the books not helping 169 00:09:49,050 --> 00:09:45,730 necessarily but what should we impact 170 00:09:51,090 --> 00:09:49,060 the books along with our Mightiest they 171 00:09:53,870 --> 00:09:51,100 have like blue ocean

00:09:59,050 started setting up the the vendors 175 00:10:04,440 --> 00:10:01,840 tables people you know from the public 176 00:10:06,870 --> 00:10:04,450 started the wandering through and 177 00:10:10,230 --> 00:10:06,880 started looking at some of the crystals 178 00:10:11,970 --> 00:10:10,240 on the tables and paging through the our 179 00:10:15,990 --> 00:10:11,980 books which I hoped that they would buy 180 00:10:19,320 --> 00:10:16,000 later on in the weekend and a gentleman 181 00:10:21,690 --> 00:10:19,330 passed by our table stopped to look at a 182 00:10:24,690 --> 00:10:21,700 couple of the books and then continued 183 00:10:27,750 --> 00:10:24,700 on his way well now I noticed after a 184 00:10:32,310 --> 00:10:27,760 minute or so that he had left behind a 185 00:10:34,350 --> 00:10:32,320 stack of mail and obviously he had just 186 00:10:36,030 --> 00:10:34,360 come from the post office because there 187 00:10:39,120 --> 00:10:36,040 was a rubber band around it and it was 188 00:10:41,580 --> 00:10:39,130 maybe 10 or 15 and letters there and I 189 00:10:44,400 --> 00:10:41,590 figure oh my goodness a guy left his his 190 00:10:46,950 --> 00:10:44,410 his mail here so I I could see him that 191 00:10:49,050 --> 00:10:46,960 he was still wandering down the down the 192 00:10:52,110 --> 00:10:49,060 hallway but kind of added towards the 193 00:10:55,920 --> 00:10:52,120 exit so I followed him down now on the 194 00:10:57,930 --> 00:10:55,930 way up to catch up with him I happened 195 00:11:02,100 --> 00:10:57,940 to look down at the top envelope and I 196 00:11:03,330 --> 00:11:02,110 saw that the envelopes were addressed to 197 00:11:11,220 --> 00:11:03,340 Kenneth Anger 198 00:11:13,950 --> 00:11:11,230 know was I I guess he's an occult icon 199 00:11:17,840 --> 00:11:13,960 he did a number of what I would consider 200 00:11:21,150 --> 00:11:17,850 to be underground very artsy occult 201 00:11:24,360 --> 00:11:21,160 movies Scorpio Rising Lucifer rising 202 00:11:27,930 --> 00:11:24,370 they are on the Internet he was a 203 00:11:30,840 --> 00:11:27,940 student of Aleister Crowley and some 204 00:11:33,840 --> 00:11:30,850 accused him of being a Satanist which I 205 00:11:36,990 --> 00:11:33,850 don't think is necessarily true but you 206 00:11:38,430 --> 00:11:37,000 know how people make up the things that 207 00:11:40,620 --> 00:11:38,440 they don't understand or if they have a 208 00:11:41,580 --> 00:11:40,630 prejudice against you they'll say almost 209 00:11:46,050 --> 00:11:41,590 anything that they 210 00:11:49,410 --> 00:11:46,060 and without you know checking the the 211 00:11:51,240 --> 00:11:49,420 facts of the details anyway so I ran up 212 00:11:55,050 --> 00:11:51,250 to him and I said excuse me sir you know 213 00:11:57,300 --> 00:11:55,060 you left your mail behind here and then 214 00:12:00,480 --> 00:11:57,310 I asked him very politely I said are you 215 00:12:02,220 --> 00:12:00,490 do you happen to be Kenneth Anger the 216 00:12:04,770 --> 00:12:02,230 moviemaker the film the underground 217 00:12:05,970 --> 00:12:04,780 filmmaker and he said oh yes I am and I 218 00:12:08,970 --> 00:12:05,980 said well are you coming to our 219 00:12:11,310 --> 00:12:08,980 conference over the weekend and he said 220 00:12:13,950 --> 00:12:11,320 oh I would like to but I I don't really 221 00:12:17,610 --> 00:12:13,960 have the money to attend and I said well 222 00:12:20,340 --> 00:12:17,620 you know Kenneth I'm a fan of yours 223 00:12:24,300 --> 00:12:20,350 I invite you I will comp you for the the 224 00:12:28,460 --> 00:12:24,310 weekend give you a guest pass and so our 225 00:12:32,040 --> 00:12:28,470 keynote speaker was Robert Weiss who did 226 00:12:35,760 --> 00:12:32,050 the Day the Earth Stood Still the cat 227 00:12:37,860 --> 00:12:35,770 and any other number of movies and I set 228 00:12:40,710 --> 00:12:37,870 the two of them together at the main at 229 00:12:44,270 --> 00:12:40,720 the head table and I got to introduce 230 00:12:50,120 --> 00:12:44,280 both Kenneth Anger the king of 231 00:12:52,650 --> 00:12:50,130 underground films and Robert Weiss the 232 00:12:56,460 --> 00:12:52,660 producer director from the Hollywood 233 00:12:59,250 --> 00:12:56,470 decide on the cinema business so I 234 00:13:01,470 --> 00:12:59,260 consider that certainly a synchronicity 235 00:13:04,410 --> 00:13:01,480 that he would be passing by and I did 236 00:13:06,300 --> 00:13:04,420 ask Kenneth I did ask him if he knew he 237 00:13:10,740 --> 00:13:06,310 had an interest in UFOs obviously you 238 00:13:12,900 --> 00:13:10,750 see Lucifer rising it at the end of the 239 00:13:15,120 --> 00:13:12,910 film there's a giant UFO that passes 240 00:13:18,330 --> 00:13:15,130 over oh I think the Sphinx of the 241 00:13:21,000 --> 00:13:18,340 Pyramid in Egypt in a the imagery of the 242 00:13:23,970 --> 00:13:21,010 UFO isn't a lot of whatever it is that 243 00:13:27,420 --> 00:13:23,980 he's you know is create his creative 244 00:13:29,040 --> 00:13:27,430 juices and and so that I found that to 245 00:13:30,480 --> 00:13:29,050 be a very interesting a synchronously 246 00:13:33,930 --> 00:13:30,490 and of course I've had other 247 00:13:36,750 --> 00:13:33,940 synchronicities along that along that 248 00:13:39,780 --> 00:13:36,760 line but I was very pleased to have this 249 00:13:42,330 --> 00:13:39,790 one and I did ask him about any UFO 250 00:13:45,660 --> 00:13:42,340 sightings and he said yes he had had one 251 00:13:47,580 --> 00:13:45,670 oh just a month or so before our by 252 00:13:50,850 --> 00:13:47,590 chance and I used that in quotes a 253 00:13:53,700 --> 00:13:50,860 meeting there in Palm Springs he was an 254 00:13:55,449 --> 00:13:53,710 early riser and he was pedaling his 255 00:13:57,340 --> 00:13:55,459 bicycle 256 00:13:59,019 --> 00:13:57,350 along he was living in the house at the 257 00:14:03,549 --> 00:13:59,029 time that had once been owned by al 258 00:14:05,139 --> 00:14:03,559 jolson al Johnson and he was out 259 00:14:06,999 --> 00:14:05,149 pedaling his bike I don't know before 260 00:14:09,489 --> 00:14:07,009 dawn I guess or just around dawn and 261 00:14:14,249 --> 00:14:09,499 there was a UFO that was keeping pace 262 00:14:17,919 --> 00:14:14,259 with him so that indeed is our 263 00:14:20,470 --> 00:14:17,929 synchronicity with Kenneth Anger and 264 00:14:22,960 --> 00:14:20,480 we'll be discussing him you know it is 265 00:14:29,199 --> 00:14:22,970 the evening of proceeds along with some 266 00:14:31,900 --> 00:14:29,209 of these other giant icons of the occult 267 00:14:33,629 --> 00:14:31,910 and I want to start out I think it Tim 268 00:14:37,720 --> 00:14:33,639 we should introduce we should bring 269 00:14:40,299 --> 00:14:37,730 Valerie into the onto the microphone 270 00:14:43,769 --> 00:14:40,309 here and sort our conversation was her 271 00:14:47,889 --> 00:14:43,779 you know I was when I was preparing the 272 00:14:49,419 --> 00:14:47,899 book on the philip k dick I was you know 273 00:14:50,919 --> 00:14:49,429 looking at through the internet to see 274 00:14:54,150 --> 00:14:50,929 what other people had written on the 275 00:14:57,220 --> 00:14:54,160 subject and I came across Valerie's a 276 00:14:58,269 --> 00:14:57,230 butterfly language blog and she had 277 00:15:02,710 --> 00:14:58,279 written some things in there about 278 00:15:05,710 --> 00:15:02,720 Robert Anton Wilson and oh the David 279 00:15:07,449 --> 00:15:05,720 Bowie and philip k dick and I said well 280 00:15:09,699 --> 00:15:07,459 this is really fascinating stuff she 281 00:15:11,739 --> 00:15:09,709 really seems to know her business so I 282 00:15:13,600 --> 00:15:11,749 got in touch with her and I asked their 283 00:15:15,519 --> 00:15:13,610 permission if we could use some of the 284 00:15:18,660 --> 00:15:15,529 material in the book and there's a 285 00:15:21,280 --> 00:15:18,670 chapter that she submitted called divine 286 00:15:26,319 --> 00:15:21,290 invasions philip k dick Robert Anton 287 00:15:29,710 --> 00:15:26,329 Wilson and alien contact in the 1970s so 288 00:15:32,679 --> 00:15:29,720 what I would have welcomed a Valerie to 289 00:15:35,410 --> 00:15:32,689 our microphones here on exploring the 290 00:15:40,169 --> 00:15:35,420 bizarre so very nice to speak to you 291 00:15:43,359 --> 00:15:40,179 finally uh about beer yeah how did you 292 00:15:45,429 --> 00:15:43,369 get involved in all of this I I see 293 00:15:50,410 --> 00:15:45,439 you've worked up did you start your 294 00:15:52,629 --> 00:15:50,420 career working in comics yes I did I got 295 00:15:57,759 --> 00:15:52,639 my first job in comics right out of 296 00:16:02,139 --> 00:15:57,769 college and Adam claimed comics and then 297 00:16:05,499 --> 00:16:02,149 from there I went on to DC Comics to 298 00:16:08,450 --> 00:16:05,509 edit JLA and Batman titles and then 299 00:16:13,100 --> 00:16:08,460 later on I wrote some comics for Marvel 300 00:16:14,600 --> 00:16:13,110 comics and other publishers and and this 301 00:16:17,690 --> 00:16:14,610 was where right out of college you 302 00:16:19,580 --> 00:16:17,700 started doing this uh yeah yeah right 303 00:16:23,900 --> 00:16:19,590 out of college though I've been a 304 00:16:28,160 --> 00:16:23,910 lifelong sort of reader and researcher 305 00:16:29,600 --> 00:16:28,170 of the esoteric and UFOs and conspiracy 306 00:16:31,910 --> 00:16:29,610 theories and all that what students I 307 00:16:34,790 --> 00:16:31,920 was able to read I start off about that 308 00:16:37,880 --> 00:16:34,800 wonderful and and how about as far is 309 00:16:40,610 --> 00:16:37,890 like these a cult icons that you 310 00:16:43,430 --> 00:16:40,620 mentioned in in a couple of your your 311 00:16:46,340 --> 00:16:43,440 blogs until I now who are your favorite 312 00:16:48,430 --> 00:16:46,350 icons would you say in exactly why well 313 00:16:50,630 --> 00:16:48,440 let's start out for example with 314 00:16:53,930 --> 00:16:50,640 well-filled Kay dick since that's the 315 00:16:57,230 --> 00:16:53,940 subject in the book sure um 316 00:16:58,820 --> 00:16:57,240 I first encountered silicate Nick's work 317 00:17:02,720 --> 00:16:58,830 outside of knowing that he was connected 318 00:17:06,410 --> 00:17:02,730 to a wave runner when I watched the 2001 319 00:17:10,610 --> 00:17:06,420 movie waking life by a Richard Linklater 320 00:17:14,030 --> 00:17:10,620 and it had a portion about the flow my 321 00:17:18,110 --> 00:17:14,040 tears the policeman said incident the 322 00:17:21,400 --> 00:17:18,120 philip k dick reported where he had sort 323 00:17:25,460 --> 00:17:21,410 of predicted events that later happened 324 00:17:27,920 --> 00:17:25,470 through one of his novels and that 325 00:17:29,510 --> 00:17:27,930 passage really sort of fascinated me and 326 00:17:31,940 --> 00:17:29,520 i want and i wondered you know was it 327 00:17:34,070 --> 00:17:31,950 really true and so I started doing 328 00:17:36,110 --> 00:17:34,080 research based off of just watching that 329 00:17:39,350 --> 00:17:36,120 one segment from that movie and then it 330 00:17:41,480 --> 00:17:39,360 was just a whole rabbit hole of this 331 00:17:44,330 --> 00:17:41,490 fascinating stuff I think we should 332 00:17:48,050 --> 00:17:44,340 mention that unlike other science 333 00:17:49,610 --> 00:17:48,060 fiction writers who show very little 334 00:17:51,740 --> 00:17:49,620 interest and certainly are very 335 00:17:56,900 --> 00:17:51,750 skeptical when it comes to things like 336 00:17:59,020 --> 00:17:56,910 UFOs and the the paranormal in fact they 337 00:18:02,030 --> 00:17:59,030 are blatantly hostile in a lot of cases 338 00:18:07,400 --> 00:18:02,040 to the to the subject like arthur c 339 00:18:11,870 --> 00:18:07,410 clarke and Ray Bradbury and Isaac Asimov 340 00:18:13,700 --> 00:18:11,880 I mean and these are the type of writers 341 00:18:16,570 --> 00:18:13,710 and icons in the science-fiction world 342 00:18:19,320 --> 00:18:16,580 who seem to have their followers on a 343 00:18:22,379 --> 00:18:19,330 very tight leash 344 00:18:26,519 --> 00:18:22,389 and but don't a dick wasn't was it like 345 00:18:30,960 --> 00:18:26,529 that uh in fact he talked about multiple 346 00:18:35,369 --> 00:18:30,970 universes he said that he believed now 347 00:18:37,739 --> 00:18:35,379 this is going back to 1977 I think it 348 00:18:40,919 --> 00:18:37,749 was he was delivering and I addressed in 349 00:18:44,879 --> 00:18:40,929 France and it was at a press conference 350 00:18:48,450 --> 00:18:44,889 and he told the the the people gathered 351 00:18:50,700 --> 00:18:48,460 their fans and press that he believed 352 00:18:54,200 --> 00:18:50,710 that we were living in a multi universe 353 00:18:55,889 --> 00:18:54,210 and that we were part of a computer 354 00:18:59,460 --> 00:18:55,899 simulation 355 00:19:01,499 --> 00:18:59,470 now that today probably doesn't seem 356 00:19:04,799 --> 00:19:01,509 that far-fetched we even have physicists 357 00:19:11,279 --> 00:19:04,809 that are discussing the the topic now in 358 00:19:13,889 --> 00:19:11,289 somewhat serious tones but back in 1977 359 00:19:17,070 --> 00:19:13,899 that certainly was a far-fetched idea 360 00:19:18,989 --> 00:19:17,080 and you could tell from the expression 361 00:19:23,009 --> 00:19:18,999 on the faces of those in the audience 362 00:19:25,200 --> 00:19:23,019 that they were gathered early oh yes I 363 00:19:27,539 --> 00:19:25,210 see that obviously on YouTube in fact 364 00:19:29,609 --> 00:19:27,549 it's yeah we've had tested it one of his 365 00:19:32,430 --> 00:19:29,619 wives on the program we showed that on 366 00:19:33,720 --> 00:19:32,440 our YouTube we have that little three or 367 00:19:36,330 --> 00:19:33,730 four minute section there they looked at 368 00:19:38,070 --> 00:19:36,340 him like he was various crazy or 369 00:19:41,129 --> 00:19:38,080 something like that why didn't you tell 370 00:19:43,229 --> 00:19:41,139 us so a little bit about now Valles was 371 00:19:45,619 --> 00:19:43,239 of course is important but how did it 372 00:19:50,279 --> 00:19:45,629 lead up to all of this I know he had a 373 00:19:55,049 --> 00:19:50,289 so-called encounter yeah the the first 374 00:20:00,570 --> 00:19:55,059 one yes he calls it the the 2-3 - 74 375 00:20:03,659 --> 00:20:00,580 encounters and in February of 1974 he 376 00:20:07,229 --> 00:20:03,669 was opening the door to pick up like a 377 00:20:09,210 --> 00:20:07,239 delivery woman with some medicine for 378 00:20:12,029 --> 00:20:09,220 his like a toothache and the woman was 379 00:20:15,389 --> 00:20:12,039 out the door she had a golden fish 380 00:20:17,220 --> 00:20:15,399 pendant and the light he described with 381 00:20:19,529 --> 00:20:17,230 the light sort of bounced off that 382 00:20:22,619 --> 00:20:19,539 pendant in a certain way and he just 383 00:20:25,529 --> 00:20:22,629 suddenly had a sort of like a vision 384 00:20:29,460 --> 00:20:25,539 that you know everybody was I think like 385 00:20:32,249 --> 00:20:29,470 living in 200 AD it just sort of got a 386 00:20:33,270 --> 00:20:32,259 download of information just from at one 387 00:20:36,990 --> 00:20:33,280 moment 388 00:20:38,820 --> 00:20:37,000 or two times actually yeah yeah like if 389 00:20:41,520 --> 00:20:38,830 that's what really kicked it off and 390 00:20:45,780 --> 00:20:41,530 then there was like a bunch of a series 391 00:20:49,350 --> 00:20:45,790 of by talking in tongues being you know 392 00:20:51,360 --> 00:20:49,360 basically contacted slash possessed by 393 00:20:55,620 --> 00:20:51,370 this entity that he variously called 394 00:20:58,290 --> 00:20:55,630 zebra and valise and it's basically kind 395 00:21:02,430 --> 00:20:58,300 of having a relationship with this 396 00:21:04,650 --> 00:21:02,440 entity which he knew it a mostly 397 00:21:07,830 --> 00:21:04,660 positive one from what I can gather but 398 00:21:10,170 --> 00:21:07,840 ah well wasn't there an incident where I 399 00:21:13,140 --> 00:21:10,180 guess telepathically or maybe he was 400 00:21:16,080 --> 00:21:13,150 child channeling this entity that they 401 00:21:17,790 --> 00:21:16,090 told him that his son was seriously ill 402 00:21:20,640 --> 00:21:17,800 even though the doctors had said that 403 00:21:22,740 --> 00:21:20,650 there was nothing wrong with him yep 404 00:21:24,990 --> 00:21:22,750 that's absolutely that absolutely 405 00:21:27,240 --> 00:21:25,000 happened he got the sudden intuition 406 00:21:30,540 --> 00:21:27,250 that it son had it's very specific 407 00:21:31,980 --> 00:21:30,550 I think hernia type condition that if it 408 00:21:33,630 --> 00:21:31,990 wasn't treated right away he would die 409 00:21:35,670 --> 00:21:33,640 and he just sort of kind of had an 410 00:21:37,620 --> 00:21:35,680 intuition said it we've got it taken to 411 00:21:40,050 --> 00:21:37,630 the hospital and they took him to the 412 00:21:43,590 --> 00:21:40,060 hospital and lo and behold his son to 413 00:21:48,330 --> 00:21:43,600 have that exact medical condition and 414 00:21:51,060 --> 00:21:48,340 any no I was just going to say now what 415 00:21:53,490 --> 00:21:51,070 okay he also I remember a reading and I 416 00:21:54,990 --> 00:21:53,500 think it's in the book that he of course 417 00:21:59,580 --> 00:21:55,000 you talk about Donald Trump talks about 418 00:22:01,890 --> 00:21:59,590 the microwave being used as a device to 419 00:22:04,040 --> 00:22:01,900 spy on people but he had he had all 420 00:22:06,540 --> 00:22:04,050 kinds of kind of like paranoid 421 00:22:08,550 --> 00:22:06,550 experiences in his life and I think one 422 00:22:11,940 --> 00:22:08,560 of them actually did involve the 423 00:22:13,800 --> 00:22:11,950 microwave and all have the TV he thought 424 00:22:16,290 --> 00:22:13,810 that the children were being programmed 425 00:22:19,500 --> 00:22:16,300 through the television set which is not 426 00:22:23,550 --> 00:22:19,510 too far-fetched certainly what what 427 00:22:28,250 --> 00:22:23,560 other paranoia is a do you think that he 428 00:22:30,390 --> 00:22:28,260 had or did he write about ah he believed 429 00:22:33,450 --> 00:22:30,400 he believed that like I think the 430 00:22:35,760 --> 00:22:33,460 Russians were sort of beaming stuff like 431 00:22:39,510 --> 00:22:35,770 you know to the United States or into 432 00:22:41,190 --> 00:22:39,520 his brain he had a safe broken into he 433 00:22:43,440 --> 00:22:41,200 came home a neat clean but the safest 434 00:22:46,860 --> 00:22:43,450 broken into it's important papers were 435 00:22:48,630 --> 00:22:46,870 stolen and data he had a weird 436 00:22:50,790 --> 00:22:48,640 letter that was mailed to him that had 437 00:22:52,020 --> 00:22:50,800 some sort of like prophetic information 438 00:22:55,230 --> 00:22:52,030 or something that he didn't even want to 439 00:22:57,450 --> 00:22:55,240 talk about but I freaked him out a lot 440 00:22:59,820 --> 00:22:57,460 and he was but he was also very yeah 441 00:23:02,630 --> 00:22:59,830 yeah well I do know that he contacted 442 00:23:05,940 --> 00:23:02,640 the FBI because he claims he did 443 00:23:07,950 --> 00:23:05,950 neo-nazi group was I don't know if they 444 00:23:10,620 --> 00:23:07,960 were threatening him but they wanted him 445 00:23:12,510 --> 00:23:10,630 to write some material in his literature 446 00:23:15,240 --> 00:23:12,520 that other people reading the books were 447 00:23:18,420 --> 00:23:15,250 like a secret code or something along 448 00:23:21,510 --> 00:23:18,430 that line anyway I hear I hear the voice 449 00:23:24,360 --> 00:23:21,520 in the background like Thor the God of 450 00:23:26,370 --> 00:23:24,370 Thunder lightning and harassment and so 451 00:23:29,750 --> 00:23:26,380 we'll be back after a very short break 452 00:23:40,610 -->

00:24:56,530 interested in psychedelics and all these 479 00:25:05,940 --> 00:25:00,179 psychedelic pioneers back in the day and 480 00:25:08,160 --> 00:25:05,950 it one area of interest had to do with a 481 00:25:11,640 --> 00:25:08,170 lot of the guys were talking about 482 00:25:16,740 --> 00:25:11,650 tonight Robert Anton Wilson and Larry 483 00:25:20,850 --> 00:25:16,750 and lily and McKenna you know we're all 484 00:25:25,530 --> 00:25:20,860 considered psychedelic pioneers and they 485 00:25:27,930 --> 00:25:25,540 all had UFO experiences quote-unquote 486 00:25:30,990 --> 00:25:27,940 around the same period you know which I 487 00:25:33,780 --> 00:25:31,000 found pretty fascinating at the time you 488 00:25:37,290 --> 00:25:33,790 know I will get into all the specifics 489 00:25:41,130 --> 00:25:37,300 but Robert Anton Wilson had a really 490 00:25:43,770 --> 00:25:41,140 profound experience where he believed or 491 00:25:46,740 --> 00:25:43,780 suspected at one time or another that he 492 00:25:49,110 --> 00:25:46,750 came in contact with entities from the 493 00:25:51,630 --> 00:25:49,120 Sirius Star System and that was going on 494 00:25:53,170 --> 00:25:51,640 the same time Phil dick had his 495 00:25:55,390 --> 00:25:53,180 experiences 496 00:25:59,290 --> 00:25:55,400 Phil dick was also part of you know the 497 00:26:01,600 --> 00:25:59,300 counterculture and he did dabble in LSD 498 00:26:03,820 --> 00:26:01,610 is will a little bit not as much as 499 00:26:06,760 --> 00:26:03,830 these other guys Lily had his experience 500 00:26:10,120 --> 00:26:06,770 around the same time where he was 501 00:26:13,180 --> 00:26:10,130 experimenting with flotation tanks and 502 00:26:16,200 --> 00:26:13,190 ketamine he contacted a group of 503 00:26:19,930 --> 00:26:16,210 entities with the acronym ecco ecco 504 00:26:23,380 --> 00:26:19,940 earth coincidence communication office 505 00:26:26,470 --> 00:26:23,390 or something like that and terence 506 00:26:29,710 --> 00:26:26,480 mckenna's well he and Dennis McKenna 507 00:26:34,390 --> 00:26:29,720 were in the Amazon around that same 508 00:26:36,520 --> 00:26:34,400 period there took some mushrooms and 509 00:26:39,880 --> 00:26:36,530 they witnessed an old-school Adamski 510 00:26:42,460 --> 00:26:39,890 type flying saucer so I found this whole 511 00:26:46,260 --> 00:26:42,470 territory pretty interesting when I was 512 00:26:49,990 --> 00:26:46,270 looking into a lot of these guys and 513 00:26:52,540 --> 00:26:50,000 fears back there was a statistical 514 00:26:54,970 --> 00:26:52,550 analysis done at a web site I don't 515 00:26:57,880 --> 00:26:54,980 think the websites indeed is there 516 00:27:01,570 --> 00:26:57,890 anymore called temporal doorway comm and 517 00:27:04,990 --> 00:27:01,580 it had like peak years of UFO sightings 518 00:27:12,850 --> 00:27:05,000 and one of those peak years was either 519 00:27:15,280 --> 00:27:12,860 at 73 or 74 and I had my own psychedelic 520 00:27:17,980 --> 00:27:15,290 UFO experience and 78 and that was 521 00:27:21,760 --> 00:27:17,990 another one of those peak years so I 522 00:27:24,520 --> 00:27:21,770 think all these things kind of play into 523 00:27:28,020 --> 00:27:24,530 each other but you know that some of my 524 00:27:31,060 --> 00:27:28,030 interests in Lille and all those uh 525 00:27:35,940 --> 00:27:31,070 psychedelic pioneers and how they all 526 00:27:40,680 --> 00:27:35,950 seemed during that period to have these 527 00:27:43,870 --> 00:27:40,690 UFO encounters but I quote unquote firm 528 00:27:46,420 --> 00:27:43,880 well and I don't gosh I wonder how many 529 00:27:49,870 --> 00:27:46,430 people even remember that there was a 530 00:27:51,880 --> 00:27:49,880 movie roughly based on John Lily's 531 00:27:54,880 --> 00:27:51,890 experiments especially with a floatation 532 00:27:57,220 --> 00:27:54,890 tank called the altered states yeah they 533 00:27:59,670 --> 00:27:57,230 didn't talk too much I don't think they 534 00:28:04,960 --> 00:27:59,680 talked at all about ketamine in that 535 00:28:06,600 --> 00:28:04,970 film but Lily and his partner I forget 536 00:28:08,820 --> 00:28:06,610 the guys name now 537 00:28:11,970 --> 00:28:08,830 and one of the early experiments is 538 00:28:15,330 --> 00:28:11,980 partner took some ketamine and went into 539 00:28:18,149 --> 00:28:15,340 the flotation tank and actually had this 540 00:28:20,250 --> 00:28:18,159 vision that he was transformed into an 541 00:28:25,860 --> 00:28:20,260 ape or something of that nature and 542 00:28:29,159 --> 00:28:25,870 that's what part of that movie was based 543 00:28:31,649 --> 00:28:29,169 on that experience so anyway yeah yeah 544 00:28:34,019 --> 00:28:31,659 I'm a movie they they they went to you 545 00:28:36,990 --> 00:28:34,029 know like South America and like imbibed 546 00:28:40,409 --> 00:28:37,000 in some kind of like ayahuasca it all 547 00:28:42,960 --> 00:28:40,419 type of some kind of like noxus looking 548 00:28:44,279 --> 00:28:42,970 little liquid that they drank and that's 549 00:28:46,529 --> 00:28:44,289 right it's been a while since I've seen 550 00:28:48,810 --> 00:28:46,539 that yeah I you know it's funny I just 551 00:28:50,129 --> 00:28:48,820 had to see it it was a you know I call 552 00:28:51,720 --> 00:28:50,139 him one of these streaming channels not 553 00:28:54,299 --> 00:28:51,730 too long ago now I'm like you had been 554 00:28:57,120 --> 00:28:54,309 years since I had seen it but it just 555 00:28:59,310 --> 00:28:57,130 you know brought back you know a lot of 556 00:29:03,509 --> 00:28:59,320 these you know like you know early ideas 557 00:29:05,879 --> 00:29:03,519 of these scientists experimenting with 558 00:29:10,019 --> 00:29:05,889 these psychedelics you know in an 559 00:29:12,830 --> 00:29:10,029 attempt to see if they could you know 560 00:29:15,930 --> 00:29:12,840 contact either other realities or 561 00:29:18,180 --> 00:29:15,940 possibly other intelligences you know in 562 00:29:20,310 --> 00:29:18,190 these other realities you know and 563 00:29:24,539 --> 00:29:20,320 that's that's something that you know 564 00:29:29,519 --> 00:29:24,549 philip k dick was writing about for 565 00:29:31,950 --> 00:29:29,529 years before it was really you know kind 566 00:29:33,840 --> 00:29:31,960 of acceptable it's not quite the right 567 00:29:35,370 --> 00:29:33,850 word but he don't want everybody else 568 00:29:37,409 --> 00:29:35,380 was writing about nuts-and-bolts 569 00:29:41,100 --> 00:29:37,419 spaceships you know colonies on the moon 570 00:29:43,649 --> 00:29:41,110 mars philip k dick was seriously looking 571 00:29:48,779 --> 00:29:43,659 into the idea of the unreality of 572 00:29:51,690 --> 00:29:48,789 reality yeah many ways he was looking 573 00:29:53,460 --> 00:29:51,700 into like human experience I think but 574 00:29:57,180 --> 00:29:53,470 he used got into a lot of these 575 00:29:59,580 --> 00:29:57,190 alternate realities and what what's it 576 00:30:01,519 --> 00:29:59,590 mean to be human I was thinking today 577 00:30:05,700 --> 00:30:01,529 before we did this interview one of my 578 00:30:07,700 --> 00:30:05,710 favorite books is Do Androids Dream of 579 00:30:11,190 --> 00:30:07,710 Electric Sheep which of course 580 00:30:13,860 --> 00:30:11,200 playground er was based on and I think 581 00:30:17,159 --> 00:30:13,870 it was in that book there was a passage 582 00:30:20,159 --> 00:30:17,169 that blew my mind at the time and I 583 00:30:24,720 --> 00:30:20,169 really got into his stuff like 584 00:30:28,440 --> 00:30:24,730 late 70s but he was talking about you 585 00:30:31,950 --> 00:30:28,450 know the replicants the androids and how 586 00:30:34,470 --> 00:30:31,960 they had implanted memories you know 587 00:30:37,710 --> 00:30:34,480 they'd make a replica of Adam go rightly 588 00:30:39,749 --> 00:30:37,720 for instance and they take all the 589 00:30:42,570 --> 00:30:39,759 memories of Adam go right Lee's life's 590 00:30:45,359 --> 00:30:42,580 things that touch him you know when it 591 00:30:48,599 --> 00:30:45,369 might be like a something that touched 592 00:30:51,570 --> 00:30:48,609 him emotionally like a puppy with a 593 00:30:53,249 --> 00:30:51,580 ribbon tied around his neck and 594 00:30:56,310 --> 00:30:53,259 something and would make him cry you 595 00:30:58,560 --> 00:30:56,320 know and those are the types of memories 596 00:31:00,899 --> 00:30:58,570 they implanted in the replicants and 597 00:31:03,989 --> 00:31:00,909 then seeing through the replicants eyes 598 00:31:06,810 --> 00:31:03,999 when they finally came to the 599 00:31:10,220 --> 00:31:06,820 realization that these false memories 600 00:31:14,729 --> 00:31:10,230 were implanted you know it was just 601 00:31:20,279 --> 00:31:14,739 incredible writing well and that's 602 00:31:22,619 --> 00:31:20,289 that's the thing about dicks you know 603 00:31:24,359 --> 00:31:22,629 ideas and writing you know especially 604 00:31:31,340 --> 00:31:24,369 like I said Androids Dream of Electric 605 00:31:35,249 --> 00:31:31,350 Sheep this it was these memories that 606 00:31:37,739 --> 00:31:35,259 that made these replicants human 607 00:31:41,389 --> 00:31:37,749 basically I mean they weren't just 608 00:31:44,249 --> 00:31:41,399 Androids anymore with these memories I 609 00:31:46,830 --> 00:31:44,259 mean they were not able to distinguish 610 00:31:49,109 --> 00:31:46,840 that these weren't their memories these 611 00:31:51,960 --> 00:31:49,119 memories were just as real to them as 612 00:31:54,330 --> 00:31:51,970 our memories are to us and that yeah 613 00:31:58,229 --> 00:31:54,340 yeah go ahead Glenn and even though they 614 00:32:00,509 --> 00:31:58,239 really had no capacity for really human 615 00:32:02,419 --> 00:32:00,519 emotions they've been programmed to 616 00:32:06,210 --> 00:32:02,429 believe they did have that capacity 617 00:32:08,220 --> 00:32:06,220 which if you're a replicant and you come 618 00:32:11,700 --> 00:32:08,230 to this realization somebody reveals 619 00:32:14,180 --> 00:32:11,710 this to you it's like ah boy I would 620 00:32:20,519 --> 00:32:14,190 make my head spin with I was a replicant 621 00:32:23,549 -->

624 00:32:31,529 --> 00:32:27,850 that's one of the things that that dick 625 00:32:33,060 --> 00:32:31,539 you know often touched upon in his 626 00:32:37,289 --> 00:32:33,070 movies and 627

00:41:28,160 spoken at the house of 805 00:41:33,579 --> 00:41:31,069 lords that she called the local minister 806 00:41:35,890 --> 00:41:33,589 and everybody else that she knew so that 807 00:41:37,839 --> 00:41:35,900 they could come by and say hello and of 808 00:41:39,700 --> 00:41:37,849 course I wanted to know every single 809 00:41:42,789 --> 00:41:39,710 Loch Ness monster have you ever seen a 810 00:41:44,859 --> 00:41:42,799 UFO and I would say I was surprised but 811 00:41:46,870 --> 00:41:44,869 I guess I really wasn't surprised at the 812 00:41:49,089 --> 00:41:46,880 number of people who reported that UFOs 813 00:41:51,970 --> 00:41:49,099 had actually been seen over the Loch and 814 00:41:54,670 --> 00:41:51,980 I remember this one individual he was 815 00:41:56,380 --> 00:41:54,680 the milkman they were still delivering 816 00:41:59,470 --> 00:41:56,390 milk in a you know in vans and trucks 817 00:42:03,069 --> 00:41:59,480 over there and he said well he used to 818 00:42:05,500 --> 00:42:03,079 pass by moleska house but he wouldn't do 819 00:42:08,770 --> 00:42:05,510 it anymore because some weird rock 820 00:42:12,160 --> 00:42:08,780 musician lives there and every time they 821 00:42:14,140 --> 00:42:12,170 went by the place his dog would go 822 00:42:17,309 --> 00:42:14,150 absolutely crazy and start digging up 823 00:42:22,270 --> 00:42:17,319 the carpeting under the front seat so he 824 00:42:23,950 --> 00:42:22,280 avoided the the the mansion and went 825 00:42:26,440 --> 00:42:23,960 around even if it took him a little bit 826 00:42:29,349 --> 00:42:26,450 longer to make his milk delivery route 827 00:42:31,390 --> 00:42:29,359 so now Valerie you wrote in the end the 828 00:42:35,260 --> 00:42:31,400 the chapter here in the book about the 829 00:42:37,660 --> 00:42:35,270 alien contacts of the 1970s could you go 830 00:42:39,940 --> 00:42:37,670 to the little detail about that why 831 00:42:42,849 --> 00:42:39,950 these contacts were taking place and who 832 00:42:46,900 --> 00:42:42,859 was involved in them as far as our cult 833 00:42:49,269 --> 00:42:46,910 icons go sure as Adam had mentioned 834 00:42:51,930 --> 00:42:49,279 before Sir Robert Anton Wilson and 835 00:42:54,730 --> 00:42:51,940 Philip a dick were both apparently 836 00:42:57,970 --> 00:42:54,740 contacted by some types of entities 837 00:42:59,799 --> 00:42:57,980 around the same time kind of giving them 838 00:43:02,680 --> 00:42:59,809 similar information and at the same this 839 00:43:05,950 --> 00:43:02,690 is the early to mid 70s and at the same 840 00:43:09,190 --> 00:43:05,960 time Timothy Leary was receiving his 841 00:43:11,620 --> 00:43:09,200 Starseed transmissions as he called them 842 00:43:15,339 --> 00:43:11,630 I think also some serious like Roberto 843 00:43:17,349 --> 00:43:15,349 Chad Wilson and that information was 844 00:43:19,630 --> 00:43:17,359 kind of similar to what Robert Anton 845 00:43:22,089 --> 00:43:19,640 Wilson and Sergey dick we're getting at 846 00:43:24,430 --> 00:43:22,099 the same time and then the head of the 847 00:43:27,910 --> 00:43:24,440 Heaven's Gate called Marshall Applewhite 848 00:43:30,460 --> 00:43:27,920 was also getting it was also contacted 849 00:43:34,089 --> 00:43:30,470 by these types of alien entities around 850 00:43:35,890 --> 00:43:34,099 the same time period and then I guess I 851 00:43:37,720 --> 00:43:35,900 was a just kind of going down the list 852 00:43:39,770 --> 00:43:37,730 and of how many people exactly were 853 00:43:46,700 --> 00:43:39,780 contacted between 854 00:43:49,220 --> 00:43:46,710 let's say 1972 and 1977 and it was a lot 855 00:43:51,530 --> 00:43:49,230 of people and I just wondered why you 856 00:43:53,960 --> 00:43:51,540 know like why was it all sort of this 857 00:43:56,120 --> 00:43:53,970 mass effort by something to contact all 858 00:44:00,220 --> 00:43:56,130 these people and to contact people who 859 00:44:05,240 --> 00:44:00,230 were the media who were authors and 860 00:44:07,370 --> 00:44:05,250 gurus um he's very fascinating stuff and 861 00:44:11,120 --> 00:44:07,380 of course David Bowie who you mentioned 862 00:44:13,310 --> 00:44:11,130 in the the article by who I had met in 863 00:44:17,870 --> 00:44:13,320 fact has written quite a bit about about 864 00:44:22,460 --> 00:44:17,880 his interest in the occult he actually I 865 00:44:24,410 --> 00:44:22,470 guess it's studied seriously the the 866 00:44:27,200 --> 00:44:24,420 parent of the paranormal and occult in 867 00:44:28,820 --> 00:44:27,210 fact we had a mutual friend they uh the 868 00:44:31,910 --> 00:44:28,830 White Witch of New York a lady by the 869 00:44:33,830 --> 00:44:31,920 name of Wally L Mark and she taught at 870 00:44:37,250 --> 00:44:33,840 the the New York School of Arts and 871 00:44:40,910 --> 00:44:37,260 Sciences which I had founded in the oh I 872 00:44:44,390 --> 00:44:40,920 guess late 1960s and it ran for maybe a 873 00:44:46,550 --> 00:44:44,400 10 years in one form or another and you 874 00:44:49,580 --> 00:44:46,560 know we gave work we had workshops and 875 00:44:51,770 --> 00:44:49,590 lectures and conferences and sometimes 876 00:44:54,620 --> 00:44:51,780 we'd have you know a pretty good 877 00:44:57,260 --> 00:44:54,630 attendance and other times we would just 878 00:44:59,780 --> 00:44:57,270 have a small you know a group of 879 00:45:01,520 --> 00:44:59,790 intimate a gathering of people who 880 00:45:04,610 --> 00:45:01,530 showed up for seances and the take 881 00:45:08,060 --> 00:45:04,620 classes and astral projection and and so 882 00:45:08,990 --> 00:45:08,070 forth anyway a Walia elm like my friend 883 00:45:11,540 --> 00:45:09,000 Wally the witch 884 00:45:14,810 --> 00:45:11,550 I did a column for circus magazine a 885 00:45:17,450 --> 00:45:14,820 circus was kind of the poor man's 886 00:45:20,650 --> 00:45:17,460 equivalent to the Rolling Stones I it 887 00:45:23,810 --> 00:45:20,660 was a glossy magazine with a lot of 888 00:45:25,490 --> 00:45:23,820 headbangers in the heavy metal and I'm 889 00:45:27,080 --> 00:45:25,500 sure that Jimmy Page and Robert Plant 890 00:45:31,400 --> 00:45:27,090 must have been on the the cover of the 891 00:45:36,200 --> 00:45:31,410 magazine dozens and dozens oh yeah dives 892 00:45:39,560 --> 00:45:36,210 right and anyway Bowie was extremely 893 00:45:41,390 --> 00:45:39,570 interested in these subjects and of 894 00:45:44,150 --> 00:45:41,400 course he had any number of UFO 895 00:45:46,280 --> 00:45:44,160 sightings wasn't he also a follower 896 00:45:48,470 --> 00:45:46,290 follower of Aleister Crowley and it 897 00:45:50,450 --> 00:45:48,480 showed up in some of his albums and in 898 00:45:53,510 --> 00:45:50,460 some of the designs of his clothing and 899 00:45:55,850 --> 00:45:53,520 so forth yeah I think there was a 900 00:45:57,980 --> 00:45:55,860 I don't like that like a sort of a 901 00:46:01,400 --> 00:45:57,990 Kabbalah a tree of life in the back of 902 00:46:03,800 --> 00:46:01,410 like one of his albums and yeah I 903 00:46:05,870 --> 00:46:03,810 believe he he was a look at a leg up 904 00:46:08,270 --> 00:46:05,880 into the follower of Crowley but he was 905 00:46:11,180 --> 00:46:08,280 definitely into the occult and he's also 906 00:46:14,960 --> 00:46:11,190 a character in philip k dick book rellis 907 00:46:18,430 --> 00:46:14,970 Oh tell us about that yes yeah yes he 908 00:46:20,390 --> 00:46:18,440 based one of the characters of the um I 909 00:46:23,300 --> 00:46:20,400 forgot his first name last name with a 910 00:46:26,600 --> 00:46:23,310 clamp Caen on Bowie and he was sort of 911 00:46:29,810 --> 00:46:26,610 like he's the de facto father of this 912 00:46:31,490 --> 00:46:29,820 child Messiah called valise 913 00:46:33,770 --> 00:46:31,500 and so it was very interesting but at 914 00:46:35,870 --> 00:46:33,780 the same time David Bowie was paranoid 915 00:46:39,110 --> 00:46:35,880 that he was going to be kidnapped and 916 00:46:43,160 --> 00:46:39,120 forced to father the Messiah that that's 917 00:46:45,620 --> 00:46:43,170 correct by witbier witches I in fact he 918 00:46:48,410 --> 00:46:45,630 was married at the time to Angela Bowie 919 00:46:50,360 --> 00:46:48,420 and they had I guess just bought a house 920 00:46:52,400 --> 00:46:50,370 somewhere out there in California and he 921 00:46:54,290 --> 00:46:52,410 was pretty stoned most of the time I 922 00:46:56,000 --> 00:46:54,300 mean he doesn't even deny it in fact 923 00:46:58,160 --> 00:46:56,010 there's a book that he wrote and he did 924 00:47:01,040 --> 00:46:58,170 a chapter on me and Wally uh in there 925 00:47:02,720 --> 00:47:01,050 you know and he was you know he was 926 00:47:04,490 --> 00:47:02,730 getting messages and of course like you 927 00:47:06,170 --> 00:47:04,500 say he was afraid that he was going to 928 00:47:08,630 --> 00:47:06,180 be kidnapped and they actually had a 929 00:47:10,370 --> 00:47:08,640 demon the face of a demon there the body 930 00:47:12,320 --> 00:47:10,380 of a demon had showed up at the bottom 931 00:47:14,090 --> 00:47:12,330 of the swimming pool and they had an 932 00:47:16,100 --> 00:47:14,100 exorcism they had called my friend Wally 933 00:47:17,720 --> 00:47:16,110 to get that you know of a ritual that 934 00:47:19,550 --> 00:47:17,730 they could repeat to try to get rid of 935 00:47:23,210 --> 00:47:19,560 the demons and in the middle of doing 936 00:47:27,940 --> 00:47:23,220 the ritual the water in the pool started 937 00:47:32,450 --> 00:47:27,950 to bubble so I I would say of all the 938 00:47:34,460 --> 00:47:32,460 musical of cult icon David Bowie was the 939 00:47:37,310 --> 00:47:34,470 the man as far as the occult goes 940 00:47:40,670 --> 00:47:37,320 serious interest in the occult and in 941

00:49:03,950 the the chapter that was included in our 962 00:49:12,029 --> 00:49:08,029 book that were you were writing about a 963 00:49:14,680 --> 00:49:12,039 lot of these basically you know 964 00:49:18,690 --> 00:49:14,690 countercultural leaders in the in the 965 00:49:22,140 --> 00:49:18,700 70s all seem to be you know having these 966 00:49:25,870 --> 00:49:22,150 contacts by you know alleged 967 00:49:29,980 --> 00:49:25,880 extraterrestrials and you made a very 968 00:49:34,720 --> 00:49:29,990 good point I think about one of the 969 00:49:36,220 --> 00:49:34,730 reasons why this may be happening and so 970 00:49:37,450 --> 00:49:36,230 you know I'm giving you a leading 971 00:49:40,210 --> 00:49:37,460 question here and I hope you know what 972 00:49:46,420 --> 00:49:40,220 I'm referring to would you like to 973 00:49:49,000 --> 00:49:46,430 comment on that this um yeah you mean 974 00:49:50,440 --> 00:49:49,010 like uh that they were there being 975 00:49:54,240 --> 00:49:50,450 contacted because they were part of the 976 00:49:57,190 --> 00:49:54,250 media that's what that and that they 977 00:49:59,319 --> 00:49:57,200 they were leaders in you know their 978 00:50:01,089 --> 00:49:59,329 field I mean you know they they really 979 00:50:06,089 --> 00:50:01,099 had a pretty pretty large audience so to 980 00:50:08,140 --> 00:50:06,099 speak absolutely absolutely um I mean 981 00:50:10,359 --> 00:50:08,150 you know I 982 00:50:12,880 --> 00:50:10,369 I try to maintain a certain skeptical 983 00:50:14,799 --> 00:50:12,890 mind of everything but it does seem to 984 00:50:18,670 --> 00:50:14,809 me like it was some sort of concerted 985 00:50:20,559 --> 00:50:18,680 effort to systematically contact people 986 00:50:23,769 --> 00:50:20,569 who would have reached the most amount 987 00:50:25,750 --> 00:50:23,779 of listeners about this sort of 988 00:50:28,900 --> 00:50:25,760 information 989 00:50:31,440 --> 00:50:28,910 so either you know alien coded for 990 00:50:35,349 --> 00:50:31,450 aliens or contacting them or entities or 991 00:50:37,240 --> 00:50:35,359 you know maybe you know or maybe they 992 00:50:39,309 --> 00:50:37,250 were just picking up something of his I 993 00:50:42,190 --> 00:50:39,319 guys but uh but definitely it seemed 994 00:50:43,839 --> 00:50:42,200 like something was happening and I and I 995 00:50:46,809 --> 00:50:43,849 do see ur eyes that I wonder if like 996 00:50:50,799 --> 00:50:46,819 every 20 years or so this type of thing 997 00:50:52,960 --> 00:50:50,809 keeps reoccurring um welcome to day 15 998 00:50:57,279 --> 00:50:52,970 through a lot of UFO contact in the 999 00:51:00,039 --> 00:50:57,289 mid-90s there was a lot of UFO / 1000 00:51:01,510 --> 00:51:00,049 conspiracy / channeling type stuff I'm 1001 00:51:05,319 --> 00:51:01,520 just wondering if it's part of that 1002 00:51:07,420 --> 00:51:05,329 larger pattern now of course just 1003 00:51:11,529 --> 00:51:07,430 playing devil's advocate here you know 1004 00:51:16,390 --> 00:51:11,539 especially in the 1960s you know the the 1005 00:51:20,260 --> 00:51:16,400 CIA got a lot of LSD from Sandow's 1006 00:51:23,859 --> 00:51:20,270 laboratories specifically to try to 1007 00:51:26,109 --> 00:51:23,869 disarm the anti-war movement that was 1008 00:51:29,190 --> 00:51:26,119 going on by just loading everybody up 1009 00:51:32,529 --> 00:51:29,200 with all kinds of different pom drugs 1010 00:51:35,140 --> 00:51:32,539 you know could could any of this have 1011 00:51:41,440 --> 00:51:35,150 been you know part of a CIA 1012 00:51:44,500 --> 00:51:41,450 you know MKULTRA a type of plot I mean 1013 00:51:47,109 --> 00:51:44,510 it's it's it's very well possible you 1014 00:51:49,089 --> 00:51:47,119 know Peter lives and his excellent book 1015 00:51:52,029 --> 00:51:49,099 series sinister force which kind of goes 1016 00:51:54,730 --> 00:51:52,039 into that question it also goes into the 1017 00:51:56,380 --> 00:51:54,740 question could the CIA have been doing 1018 00:51:59,950 --> 00:51:56,390 this but at the same time sort of 1019 00:52:02,529 --> 00:51:59,960 opening doors to actual paranormal stuff 1020 00:52:05,349 --> 00:52:02,539 on top of it with their use of the LSD 1021 00:52:10,150 --> 00:52:05,359 and and Cayla and stuff like that I mean 1022 00:52:11,740 --> 00:52:10,160 could those hypotheses be true well and 1023 00:52:12,670 --> 00:52:11,750 you have you have people like you know 1024 00:52:17,430 --> 00:52:12,680 Terence Mckenna 1025 00:52:21,039 --> 00:52:17,440 who I mean they he definitely felt that 1026 00:52:25,179 --> 00:52:21,049 using EMT 1027 00:52:28,120 --> 00:52:25,189 open this up to some other type of you 1028 00:52:29,559 --> 00:52:28,130 know intelligence and other reality you 1029 00:52:31,149 --> 00:52:29,569 know he speculated that you know 1030 00:52:34,029 --> 00:52:31,159 mushrooms you know psychedelic your 1031 00:52:36,489 --> 00:52:34,039 suicide in mushrooms could be an 1032 00:52:38,819 --> 00:52:36,499 intelligence in themselves and this was 1033 00:52:44,489 --> 00:52:38,829 the way that they you know would 1034 00:52:47,799 --> 00:52:44,499 communicate with mankind so I think that 1035 00:52:51,130 --> 00:52:47,809 considering all of these uh highly 1036 00:52:53,469 --> 00:52:51,140 influential people who you know who were 1037 00:52:56,319 --> 00:52:53,479 having these kinds of experiences and 1038 00:53:01,299 --> 00:52:56,329 writing about them you know this this 1039 00:53:03,519 --> 00:53:01,309 really opened up a whole new area of 1040 00:53:05,169 --> 00:53:03,529 thought you know not just with these 1041 00:53:07,569 --> 00:53:05,179 people but with their you know they're 1042 00:53:12,189 --> 00:53:07,579 the readers and followers as well well 1043 00:53:15,579 --> 00:53:12,199 you know didn't andre polaric in the I 1044 00:53:18,729 --> 00:53:15,589 guess the early 1950s he worked it with 1045 00:53:20,709 --> 00:53:18,739 the the CIA some people say he was a an 1046 00:53:22,329 --> 00:53:20,719 agent perhaps and I would know him 1047 00:53:24,399 --> 00:53:22,339 writing a book I don't remember the 1048 00:53:26,139 --> 00:53:24,409 exact name but it was the maybe the 1049 00:53:28,809 --> 00:53:26,149 cross of the mushroom is that the name 1050 00:53:31,449 --> 00:53:28,819 do you think Adam the name of the book 1051 00:53:33,639 --> 00:53:31,459 was the sacred mushroom this sacred well 1052 00:53:37,120 --> 00:53:33,649 I got mushroom in there I guess I ate 1053 00:53:38,919 --> 00:53:37,130 the recipe but what what was that you 1054 00:53:42,639 --> 00:53:38,929 remember the concept of the book was 1055 00:53:44,499 --> 00:53:42,649 that that that he had tested mushrooms 1056 00:53:49,059 --> 00:53:44,509 and thought that they uh what a new 1057 00:53:52,179 --> 00:53:49,069 awareness with them ah yeah that's the 1058 00:53:56,409 --> 00:53:52,189 short version and we were talking about 1059 00:53:58,689 --> 00:53:56,419 the you know MKULTRA and the CIA a and P 1060 00:54:03,599 --> 00:53:58,699 Herrick was involved in a lot of that 1061 00:54:07,419 --> 00:54:03,609 stuff he was based out of Fort Detrick 1062 00:54:09,789 --> 00:54:07,429 during the same period that the the you 1063 00:54:13,209 --> 00:54:09,799 know this events happened around his 1064 00:54:17,499 --> 00:54:13,219 book the sacred mushroom so he has he 1065 00:54:20,769 --> 00:54:17,509 had you know he had feet in both worlds 1066 00:54:25,769 --> 00:54:20,779 you know the the occult and also you 1067 00:54:28,329 --> 00:54:25,779 know being a scientist who was involved 1068 00:54:33,239 --> 00:54:28,339 post-world War two and a lot of those 1069 00:54:34,840 --> 00:54:33,249 activities about influencing human 1070 00:54:36,970 --> 00:54:34,850 behavior 1071 00:54:43,120 --> 00:54:36,980 a science and all that stuff but as a 1072 00:54:44,860 --> 00:54:43,130 story goes as I recall around 52 a lot 1073 00:54:48,370 --> 00:54:44,870 of the events and the sacred mushroom 1074 00:54:51,610 --> 00:54:48,380 happened

you how much they're worth 1205 01:01:17,540 --> 01:01:14,890 you know work towards the end the 1206 01:01:20,580 --> 01:01:17,550 organization had no money so I think 1207 01:01:22,740 --> 01:01:20,590 Anton what's his name Antonio who Naas 1208 01:01:24,390 --> 01:01:22,750 they gave him like a piece of paper it 1209 01:01:26,880 --> 01:01:24,400 turned out to be like a squirrel my 1210 01:01:28,680 --> 01:01:26,890 minor plaque went first started out to 1211 01:01:32,190 --> 01:01:28,690 be like a figure of some kind you know 1212 01:01:33,870 --> 01:01:32,200 and then it turned into a a plaque which 1213 01:01:35,250 --> 01:01:33,880 I went out and got myself actually 1214 01:01:37,980 --> 01:01:35,260 because Jim would know even where to get 1215 01:01:41,010 --> 01:01:37,990 a plaque and then it turned into a you 1216 01:01:42,660 --> 01:01:41,020 know a scroll at the at the end so poor 1217 01:01:45,840 --> 01:01:42,670 Antonio got stuck with the squirrel 1218 01:01:47,610 --> 01:01:45,850 instead of a plaque so yeah miles put 1219 01:01:49,590 --> 01:01:47,620 together what was going to be a pretty 1220 01:01:51,450 --> 01:01:49,600 good conference I have a poster for it 1221 01:01:56,490 --> 01:01:51,460 on the wall which course didn't happen 1222 01:01:58,740 --> 01:01:56,500 because 9/11 went down the you know the 1223 01:02:02,490 --> 01:01:58,750 day before it was like well so much for 1224 01:02:06,630 --> 01:02:02,500 my Davis canceled the event nope you 1225 01:02:11,250 --> 01:02:06,640 know airplane flights were canceled for 1226 01:02:13,980 --> 01:02:11,260 a few days there now you know what I 1227 01:02:19,140 --> 01:02:13,990 wanted to get into though - let's talk 1228 01:02:21,300 --> 01:02:19,150 about the dark side of this now how 1229 01:02:23,760 --> 01:02:21,310 about like we've got people like of 1230 01:02:28,800 --> 01:02:23,770 course you've written about the Charles 1231 01:02:30,930 --> 01:02:28,810 Manson and we have Anton LaVey the head 1232 01:02:33,690 --> 01:02:30,940 of the Satanic church 1233 01:02:36,390 --> 01:02:33,700 what other occult figures or cult 1234 01:02:39,000 --> 01:02:36,400 figures would you put in that category 1235 01:02:40,530 --> 01:02:39,010 because certainly all of the figures 1236 01:02:43,830 --> 01:02:40,540 from the 60s and 70s 1237 01:02:45,900 --> 01:02:43,840 we're not sweetness and light the dark 1238 01:02:48,420 --> 01:02:45,910 side of the occult well you could go a 1239 01:02:51,510 --> 01:02:48,430 lot of different directions with like 1240 01:02:52,860 --> 01:02:51,520 and I guess the serial killers and I 1241 01:02:55,830 --> 01:02:52,870 guess it depends on what you consider 1242 01:02:59,630 --> 01:02:55,840 the dark side yeah I mean a lot matters 1243 01:03:03,050 --> 01:02:59,640 there's a lot of Mythology around 1244 01:03:05,850 --> 01:03:03,060 Aleister Crowley how oh yes you know I 1245 01:03:08,670 --> 01:03:05,860 really don't know but yeah there is some 1246 01:03:13,440 --> 01:03:08,680 truth to dabbling in you know these 1247 01:03:18,540 --> 01:03:13,450 areas sometimes you need to be careful 1248 01:03:21,570 --> 01:03:18,550 what you wish for you know to to be able 1249 01:03:23,790 --> 01:03:21,580 to contact these different spirits 1250 01:03:25,660 --> 01:03:23,800 sometimes it doesn't work it out too 1251 01:03:27,799 --> 01:03:25,670 well for folks 1252 01:03:29,839 --> 01:03:27,809 and what were some of the things that 1253 01:03:32,960 --> 01:03:29,849 well a court now did any of the people 1254 01:03:34,910 --> 01:03:32,970 that were involved in the the Charles 1255 01:03:38,089 --> 01:03:34,920 Manson group were they into the occult 1256 01:03:39,620 --> 01:03:38,099 at all I know they talked about the the 1257 01:03:41,930 --> 01:03:39,630 Inner Earth I think was part of their 1258 01:03:43,910 --> 01:03:41,940 picture at one point right oh they were 1259 01:03:46,819 --> 01:03:43,920 totally steeped in the occult for sure 1260 01:03:50,150 --> 01:03:46,829 we talked about Bobby Beausoleil earlier 1261 01:03:53,349 --> 01:03:50,160 he had those Kenneth Anger connections 1262 01:03:57,140 --> 01:03:53,359 and Kenneth Anger turned him on to 1263 01:03:58,940 --> 01:03:57,150 Aleister Crowley also Susan Atkins who 1264 01:04:04,490 --> 01:03:58,950 was one of the Manson Family murders she 1265 01:04:07,990 --> 01:04:04,500 also had a prior relationship with Anton 1266 01:04:13,160 --> 01:04:08,000 LaVey before the Manson Family she was a 1267 01:04:16,099 --> 01:04:13,170 like a topless dancer for a satanic 1268 01:04:17,809 --> 01:04:16,109 review that Anton LaVey put on so 1269 01:04:20,990 --> 01:04:17,819 there's a there there's all kinds of 1270 01:04:24,859 --> 01:04:21,000 those connections related to the Manson 1271 01:04:28,220 --> 01:04:24,869 Family they were definitely into the 1272 01:04:29,380 --> 01:04:28,230 occult which she knows hid knowledge 1273 01:04:33,020 --> 01:04:29,390 secrets 1274 01:04:36,400 --> 01:04:33,030 well I'm sure now Valerie are have you 1275 01:04:39,140 --> 01:04:36,410 ever have you had any synchronicities oh 1276 01:04:42,099 --> 01:04:39,150 I've had tons and tons and tons of 1277 01:04:45,680 --> 01:04:42,109 synchronous well I'm out a few on us 1278 01:04:48,289 --> 01:04:45,690 sure um bloody human connection with the 1279 01:04:51,470 --> 01:04:48,299 UM your your matrix control system 1280 01:04:54,410 --> 01:04:51,480 associated book the morning I received 1281 01:04:57,440 --> 01:04:54,420 the book I had a dream that I found a 1282 01:05:00,319 --> 01:04:57,450 black wallet on the ground and I had to 1283 01:05:03,710 --> 01:05:00,329 give it back to someone and then late 1284 01:05:06,079 --> 01:05:03,720 that day we decided to get to go out and 1285 01:05:08,660 --> 01:05:06,089 get some ice cream at the local 7-eleven 1286 01:05:11,030 --> 01:05:08,670 and in the park and before we got the 1287 01:05:13,069 --> 01:05:11,040 ice cream we noticed that the books had 1288 01:05:15,140 --> 01:05:13,079 just arrived in the mail so I opened up 1289 01:05:17,180 --> 01:05:15,150 the the carton I was like oh I'm so 1290 01:05:19,190 --> 01:05:17,190 excited to finally get this book and 1291 01:05:22,160 --> 01:05:19,200 then we walked to get the ice cream and 1292 01:05:24,559 --> 01:05:22,170 in the parking lot was the black wallet 1293 01:05:26,150 --> 01:05:24,569 and I think you know picked it up and I 1294 01:05:28,579 --> 01:05:26,160 said you know the same thing like in my 1295 01:05:31,220 --> 01:05:28,589 dream oh I've got to give us back to 1296 01:05:36,020 --> 01:05:31,230 this person uh maybe that's what 1297 01:05:37,130 --> 01:05:36,030 happened to bye miss Lee credit card now 1298 01:05:38,750 --> 01:05:37,140 that would have been something you have 1299 01:05:39,200 --> 01:05:38,760 found that in the parking lot because I 1300 01:05:43,910 --> 01:05:39,210 was in 1301 01:05:46,130 --> 01:05:43,920 Brooklyn salcedo Wow that's a good 1302 01:05:49,520 --> 01:05:46,140 synchronicity that is yeah that's 1303 01:05:51,050 --> 01:05:49,530 related to the book to sort of and and 1304 01:05:52,520 --> 01:05:51,060 so what do you what do you what do you 1305 01:05:55,609 --> 01:05:52,530 make of this I mean do you think that 1306 01:05:57,920 --> 01:05:55,619 we're all is somebody going to like like 1307 01:06:00,020 --> 01:05:57,930 a pull the wires of one night and we 1308 01:06:04,250 --> 01:06:00,030 won't be here anymore I mean how how do 1309 01:06:06,230 --> 01:06:04,260 you see this living in a matrix type of 1310 01:06:10,880 --> 01:06:06,240 am indeed do you think we are a computer 1311 01:06:13,670 --> 01:06:10,890 simulation oh well I think that I I mean 1312 01:06:16,040 --> 01:06:13,680 I think everybody has their reality I 1313 01:06:18,680 --> 01:06:16,050 think it's very subjective and then it's 1314 01:06:21,290 --> 01:06:18,690 very subjective to each person I don't 1315 01:06:23,420 --> 01:06:21,300 think we're not all sharing I think the 1316 01:06:25,970 --> 01:06:23,430 same reality for sharing kind of a 1317 01:06:27,829 --> 01:06:25,980 consensus reality so that's like right 1318 01:06:29,210 --> 01:06:27,839 on ground level I think in reality is 1319 01:06:33,020 --> 01:06:29,220 different for every person at least 1320 01:06:34,910 --> 01:06:33,030 slightly and then I mean I I don't know 1321 01:06:38,120 --> 01:06:34,920 for a computer simulation but I think 1322 01:06:40,700 --> 01:06:38,130 you know there's more out there going on 1323 01:06:44,240 --> 01:06:40,710 than you know I think we've been taught 1324 01:06:48,550 --> 01:06:44,250 in school and well that have we ever 1325 01:06:52,490 --> 01:06:48,560 been taught anything in school hahaha 1326 01:06:55,099 --> 01:06:52,500 exactly exactly but yeah I mean and 1327 01:06:57,880 --> 01:06:55,109 synchronicities I think of the way the 1328 01:07:03,050 --> 01:06:57,890 universe tries to get our attention 1329 01:07:05,420 --> 01:07:03,060 about things it's interesting you 1330 01:07:07,550 --> 01:07:05,430 mentioned synchronicity around a book 1331 01:07:10,430 --> 01:07:07,560 projects that that's where a lot of my 1332 01:07:14,079 --> 01:07:10,440 synchronicities have happened related to 1333 01:07:17,320 --> 01:07:14,089 a book project that there's quite a few 1334 01:07:19,940 --> 01:07:17,330 and I you know I I do notice that 1335 01:07:22,130 --> 01:07:19,950 synchronicity you know John keel of 1336 01:07:24,140 --> 01:07:22,140 course who kind of wrote about this you 1337 01:07:27,230 --> 01:07:24,150 know a type of thing he had his super 1338 01:07:29,630 --> 01:07:27,240 spectrum which were like towers that 1339 01:07:32,450 --> 01:07:29,640 were built or underground or something 1340 01:07:34,430 --> 01:07:32,460 in different parts of the world I forget 1341 01:07:36,290 --> 01:07:34,440 exactly what that's pretty close to what 1342 01:07:40,640 --> 01:07:36,300 he says because I remember reading it in 1343 01:07:42,710 --> 01:07:40,650 the and the book here but you know I I 1344 01:07:44,450 --> 01:07:42,720 just I just think that it you know there 1345 01:07:46,579 --> 01:07:44,460 could be two explanations for this it 1346 01:07:49,250 --> 01:07:46,589 could be that somebody like Charles four 1347 01:07:52,640 --> 01:07:49,260 says you know we are under the control 1348 01:07:53,420 --> 01:07:52,650 of some you know a master that we're 1349 01:07:55,130 --> 01:07:53,430 pieces of 1350 01:07:57,799 --> 01:07:55,140 you know we're like on a chessboard you 1351 01:08:01,160 --> 01:07:57,809 know pieces on a chess board or it could 1352 01:08:04,130 --> 01:08:01,170 have been that somewhere at the 1353 01:08:06,589 --> 01:08:04,140 beginning of creation some a group of 1354 01:08:10,670 --> 01:08:06,599 aliens let's go for lack of a better 1355 01:08:12,980 --> 01:08:10,680 term I came along and set up this matrix 1356 01:08:15,559 --> 01:08:12,990 I call it like a giant fish bowl and 1357 01:08:17,900 --> 01:08:15,569 then they had then they left they 1358 01:08:20,959 --> 01:08:17,910 programmed it and perhaps they come back 1359 01:08:25,220 --> 01:08:20,969 every once in a while to check to see if 1360 01:08:27,470 --> 01:08:25,230 their subjects are any more advanced and 1361 01:08:29,809 --> 01:08:27,480 when they find out that there they're 1362 01:08:32,689 --> 01:08:29,819 not they disappear for another couple of 1363 01:08:34,760 --> 01:08:32,699 thousands years you know or maybe at 1364 01:08:36,979 --> 01:08:34,770 four o'clock in the afternoon the kids 1365 01:08:40,280 --> 01:08:36,989 come home from school in the in the 1366 01:08:42,349 --> 01:08:40,290 matrix and decide to play you know the 1367 01:08:46,579 --> 01:08:42,359 play with us or something because some 1368 01:08:48,229 --> 01:08:46,589 of these events certainly are have the 1369 01:08:52,180 --> 01:08:48,239 egg you know the element of tricks 1370 01:08:54,680 --> 01:08:52,190 tourism in there they're made just to I 1371 01:08:58,220 --> 01:08:54,690 know to get our goat maybe I guess 1372 01:09:00,079 --> 01:08:58,230 that's the best way that I can explain 1373 01:09:03,320 --> 01:09:00,089 it you know and people kind of are 1374 01:09:06,410 --> 01:09:03,330 looking for a you know an explanation in 1375 01:09:08,269 --> 01:09:06,420 the area of cosmic consciousness you 1376 01:09:10,729 --> 01:09:08,279 know it shows that we're all linked 1377 01:09:12,890 --> 01:09:10,739 together in some six degrees of 1378 01:09:16,370 --> 01:09:12,900 separation we did write about that in 1379 01:09:20,209 --> 01:09:16,380 the book as well but I think it's a it's 1380 01:09:21,680 --> 01:09:20,219 a lot more random than that you know 1381 01:09:23,479 --> 01:09:21,690 like something is happening and 1382 01:09:25,340 --> 01:09:23,489 something is someone or something is 1383 01:09:27,829 --> 01:09:25,350 behind this but you can't really put 1384 01:09:29,180 --> 01:09:27,839 your your your finger on it because it's 1385 01:09:34,010 --> 01:09:29,190 just like UFOs 1386 01:09:38,209 --> 01:09:34,020 it's very elusive the kids come home to 1387 01:09:40,459 --> 01:09:38,219 play with their sea monkeys yeah no no 1388 01:09:42,439 --> 01:09:40,469 of Valarie you've worked in the area of 1389 01:09:46,370 --> 01:09:42,449 a science fiction and and comic books 1390 01:09:48,019 --> 01:09:46,380 what what seems to be the impression 1391 01:09:50,269 --> 01:09:48,029 that most people you know in those 1392 01:09:52,430 --> 01:09:50,279 especially in the comic book world they 1393 01:09:54,709 --> 01:09:52,440 don't know too many people that are 1394 01:09:57,200 --> 01:09:54,719 involved in the comics although my 1395 01:09:59,450 --> 01:09:57,210 friend that Peter who does the Youtube 1396 01:10:01,669 --> 01:09:59,460 version of the the show has worked in 1397 01:10:06,080 --> 01:10:01,679 the comic book industry and does 1398 01:10:07,250 --> 01:10:06,090 cartoons and has his own animated series 1399 01:10:09,589 --> 01:10:07,260 of All American girls 1400 01:10:11,080 --> 01:10:09,599 I mean what seems to be the consensus 1401 01:10:16,910 --> 01:10:11,090 there do they think that we're all you 1402 01:10:22,069 --> 01:10:16,920 know bats are out on a limb or oh well I 1403 01:10:23,209 --> 01:10:22,079 think a big storyline in in comics one 1404 01:10:26,120 --> 01:10:23,219 of the big storylines is that there are 1405 01:10:28,279 --> 01:10:26,130 multiple universes and they're they're 1406 01:10:30,020 --> 01:10:28,289 sort of infinite different realities and 1407 01:10:32,299 --> 01:10:30,030 universes and each one is slightly 1408 01:10:35,540 --> 01:10:32,309 different and they use that to sort of 1409 01:10:37,939 --> 01:10:35,550 explain why you know comics like comic 1410 01:10:40,479 --> 01:10:37,949 book characters one way in one issue and 1411 01:10:43,299 --> 01:10:40,489 then ten years later is a different way 1412 01:10:46,430 --> 01:10:43,309 so they're very into that multiple 1413 01:10:49,910 --> 01:10:46,440 universes and also playing with time the 1414 01:10:51,979 --> 01:10:49,920 idea of going back in time messing with 1415 01:10:53,600 --> 01:10:51,989 time and so forth 1416 01:10:56,750 --> 01:10:53,610 those are the only big popular 1417 01:10:59,120 --> 01:10:56,760 storylines or we were coming up on our 1418 01:11:01,520 --> 01:10:59,130 last break in the movie we'll be back in 1419 01:11:05,209 --> 01:11:01,530 a few minutes and

wanted to ask a Val 1434 01:12:05,630 --> 01:12:00,930 now considered your history in the comic 1435 01:12:07,130 --> 01:12:05,640 book industry you know I know that you 1436 01:12:11,300 --> 01:12:07,140 know comic books I mean they've there's 1437 01:12:14,060 --> 01:12:11,310 always been an occult elements with them 1438 01:12:17,870 --> 01:12:14,070 but you know now like when I was a kid 1439 01:12:20,030 --> 01:12:17,880 especially you know like in the 60s it 1440 01:12:23,030 --> 01:12:20,040 was it was more about the cakes you know 1441 01:12:25,520 --> 01:12:23,040 superheroes people do people like that 1442 01:12:28,790 --> 01:12:25,530 but it seems to me that around the same 1443 01:12:32,479 --> 01:12:28,800 time that you know when we were talking 1444 01:12:37,189 --> 01:12:32,489 about a lot of these people Robert Anton 1445 01:12:39,439 --> 01:12:37,199 Wilson Timothy Leary you know okay dick 1446 01:12:44,660 --> 01:12:39,449 that you know they were talking about 1447 01:12:48,530 --> 01:12:44,670 their extraterrestrial contacts in the 1448 01:12:53,209 --> 01:12:48,540 70s I seem to remember that there was an 1449 01:12:55,850 --> 01:12:53,219 also resurgence of an interest in the 1450 01:12:58,820 --> 01:12:55,860 occult in the comic books as well along 1451 01:13:00,500 --> 01:12:58,830 rather along that same time oh yeah 1452 01:13:02,900 --> 01:13:00,510 absolutely there's a whole sort of a 1453 01:13:05,479 --> 01:13:02,910 line of occult comic books that um 1454 01:13:07,040 --> 01:13:05,489 especially a Marvel Comics put out and 1455 01:13:10,090 --> 01:13:07,050 are the one that sticks in my mind is on 1456 01:13:14,060 --> 01:13:10,100 is a comic called the son of Satan or 1457 01:13:16,310 --> 01:13:14,070 literally the son knocks it down 1458 01:13:19,010 --> 01:13:16,320 Pentagon on his head a Pentagon it 1459 01:13:21,110 --> 01:13:19,020 carved in his chest and he has a sister 1460 01:13:24,500 --> 01:13:21,120 called st. Anna and there's a whole 1461 01:13:28,709 --> 01:13:24,510 thing in family ah seitan I've seen 1462 01:13:31,200 --> 01:13:28,719 those comic goodness yeah you 1463 01:13:33,390 --> 01:13:31,210 and yeah I was so freaking Vader rampant 1464 01:13:36,900 --> 01:13:33,400 vampire illus yes 1465 01:13:39,300 --> 01:13:36,910 yeah absolutely Vampirella there's 1466 01:13:42,030 --> 01:13:39,310 research into no interesting Dracula and 1467 01:13:44,430 --> 01:13:42,040 I believe some of these comic book 1468 01:13:48,090 --> 01:13:44,440 people were also hanging out in occult 1469 01:13:51,750 --> 01:13:48,100 shops in New York City around that same 1470 01:13:53,100 --> 01:13:51,760 time period in the seventies and sort of 1471 01:13:55,200 --> 01:13:53,110 there's kind of a blending I think 1472 01:13:58,050 --> 01:13:55,210 almost of like nil certain occult 1473 01:14:01,910 --> 01:13:58,060 circles and we had we had bubbles we had 1474 01:14:04,979 --> 01:14:01,920 the Warlock shop which Herman Slater ran 1475 01:14:09,330 --> 01:14:04,989 then of course we had my occult the Arts 1476 01:14:12,689 --> 01:14:09,340 and Sciences Center on 14th Street then 1477 01:14:16,770 --> 01:14:12,699 there was the processed Church you must 1478 01:14:19,920 --> 01:14:16,780 know about that Adam right and and then 1479 01:14:22,080 --> 01:14:19,930 there was another a very strange group 1480 01:14:25,110 --> 01:14:22,090 and I can't remember what they called 1481 01:14:26,729 --> 01:14:25,120 themselves but they had a little shop up 1482 01:14:29,729 --> 01:14:26,739 around Oh 1483 01:14:32,340 --> 01:14:29,739 maybe 60th Street or so on the east side 1484 01:14:34,500 --> 01:14:32,350 and it was you know really pitch black 1485 01:14:36,870 --> 01:14:34,510 in there and you could never remember 1486 01:14:39,270 --> 01:14:36,880 the guys the owner or the manager his 1487 01:14:42,840 --> 01:14:39,280 name was Gary but you could never really 1488 01:14:43,530 --> 01:14:42,850 pin him down as to what they were all 1489 01:14:45,720 --> 01:14:43,540 about 1490 01:14:48,150 --> 01:14:45,730 whereas with Herman Slater was pretty 1491 01:14:51,240 --> 01:14:48,160 much a you know of witchcraft a place 1492 01:14:53,670 --> 01:14:51,250 but they sold herbs and oils and they 1493 01:14:56,670 --> 01:14:53,680 sold our you know our books and things 1494 01:14:58,890 --> 01:14:56,680 along that line and of course I was like 1495 01:15:01,740 --> 01:14:58,900 classes and things and then the 1496 01:15:06,630 --> 01:15:01,750 spiritualist movement was still fairly 1497 01:15:11,280 --> 01:15:06,640 large at that point the late 60s and 1498 01:15:13,110 --> 01:15:11,290 early 70s here in New York they had 1499 01:15:16,890 --> 01:15:13,120 their all their meetings at the in 1500 01:15:21,030 --> 01:15:16,900 Soniya hotel was which was up around 73 1501 01:15:25,220 --> 01:15:21,040 to 74th Street and a Broadway and you 1502 01:15:28,500 --> 01:15:25,230 know I even saw a man Lee Palmer Hall 1503 01:15:31,380 --> 01:15:28,510 who of course is one of the greats of a 1504 01:15:36,110 --> 01:15:31,390 I mean there's an occult icon 1505 01:15:38,669 --> 01:15:36,120 certainly endeavor was one and he was a 1506 01:15:40,590 --> 01:15:38,679 mesmerizing speaker for a buck you got 1507 01:15:42,510 --> 01:15:40,600 to set up close because it would 1508 01:15:44,970 --> 01:15:42,520 probably only be about maybe you know 1509 01:15:48,630 --> 01:15:44,980 of 25 or 35 people in the end the place 1510 01:15:50,520 --> 01:15:48,640 and he was a very large man and he set 1511 01:15:53,820 --> 01:15:50,530 up in front of the I think they had a 1512 01:15:55,680 --> 01:15:53,830 little stage and a huge gong behind and 1513 01:15:57,360 --> 01:15:55,690 the two ladies that ran the the group 1514 01:16:01,350 --> 01:15:57,370 they would start out the evenings 1515 01:16:03,780 --> 01:16:01,360 procession by banging the gong and then 1516 01:16:08,400 --> 01:16:03,790 mainly Palmer Hall become a kind of dog 1517 01:16:12,720 --> 01:16:08,410 show mmm the occult gong show that he 1518 01:16:14,850 --> 01:16:12,730 was set up there and and could talk talk 1519 01:16:18,900 --> 01:16:14,860 a blue I was going to say a blue a blue 1520 01:16:22,110 --> 01:16:18,910 streak but he even knew his stuff or he 1521 01:16:24,480 --> 01:16:22,120 was a total BS artist it was one of 1522 01:16:26,310 --> 01:16:24,490 those kind of people that you could 1523 01:16:28,740 --> 01:16:26,320 never really tell I mean he obviously 1524 01:16:31,140 --> 01:16:28,750 know he obviously knew the history of 1525 01:16:35,810 --> 01:16:31,150 the occult and he was one of the few 1526 01:16:38,580 --> 01:16:35,820 people who actually saw saw the the 1527 01:16:40,230 --> 01:16:38,590 Masonic Order as being a very positive 1528 01:16:42,000 --> 01:16:40,240 thing instead of you know a lot of 1529 01:16:46,890 --> 01:16:42,010 people who thought another secret 1530 01:16:49,890 --> 01:16:46,900 society all that mumbo jumbo and he had 1531 01:16:51,240 --> 01:16:49,900 a huge book which sold for $100 in I 1532 01:16:53,730 --> 01:16:51,250 mean that would be the equivalent of 1533 01:16:56,880 --> 01:16:53,740 seven or eight hundred buck bucks today 1534 01:17:01,290 --> 01:16:56,890 huge book printed on very fine paper and 1535 01:17:02,880 --> 01:17:01,300 gold leaf around the edges and there 1536 01:17:06,060 --> 01:17:02,890 were other speakers you could go in and 1537 01:17:09,680 --> 01:17:06,070 hear you know for a dollar me the best I 1538 01:17:13,740 --> 01:17:09,690 could do was get 50 cents for a talk so 1539 01:17:16,710 --> 01:17:13,750 but those were the days of of course you 1540 01:17:19,670 --> 01:17:16,720 could rent a hall you know or a room in 1541 01:17:21,870 --> 01:17:19,680 a hotel for 25 or $30 for the night 1542 01:17:24,210 --> 01:17:21,880 today you couldn't even come close to 1543 01:17:26,610 --> 01:17:24,220 that you know I mean it's a forget about 1544 01:17:30,690 --> 01:17:26,620 it and people want to you know listen to 1545 01:17:34,530 --> 01:17:30,700 their their iPod shows and watch UFO 1546 01:17:37,350 --> 01:17:34,540 Hunters and things along that line I 1547 01:17:40,920 --> 01:17:37,360 mean do you think I'd be Valerie that 1548 01:17:42,570 --> 01:17:40,930 there is more interest in this type of 1549 01:17:45,210 --> 01:17:42,580 subject today than there was then or 1550 01:17:47,189 --> 01:17:45,220 wasn't more hardcore back in the 60s and 1551 01:17:50,580 --> 01:17:47,199 70s 1552 01:17:53,669 --> 01:17:50,590 um that's hard to say I think it's uh in 1553 01:17:56,370 --> 01:17:53,679 some ways I mean the interest is still 1554 01:17:58,680 --> 01:17:56,380 there it's just the the subject matter 1555 01:18:01,590 --> 01:17:58,690 has kind of sort of mutated like you 1556 01:18:03,240 --> 01:18:01,600 know there's definitely a great 1557 01:18:05,550 --> 01:18:03,250 popularity and stuff that are kind of 1558 01:18:09,890 --> 01:18:05,560 like a discordian society but sort of 1559 01:18:13,320 --> 01:18:09,900 translated into a sort of contemporary 1560 01:18:16,439 --> 01:18:13,330 means and symbols um so I think it's 1561 01:18:19,110 --> 01:18:16,449 still there it's just kind of changed a 1562 01:18:21,800 --> 01:18:19,120 bit and the purpose of my my website is 1563 01:18:24,900 --> 01:18:21,810 I really try to bridge that gap between 1564 01:18:27,150 --> 01:18:24,910 this older material and to present it to 1565 01:18:29,400 --> 01:18:27,160 like a new audience to expand that 1566 01:18:31,620 --> 01:18:29,410 audience now who would you say your 1567 01:18:34,200 -->

a 1625 01:21:17,780 --> 01:21:16,390 little background how this all came 1626 01:21:20,430 --> 01:21:17,790 about 1627 01:21:24,680 --> 01:21:20,440 geez how many years now a few years ago 1628 01:21:28,110 --> 01:21:24,690 I came across a collection of photos of 1629 01:21:31,220 --> 01:21:28,120 that were of giant rock you know the is 1630 01:21:34,140 --> 01:21:31,230 in the interplanetary spacecraft 1631 01:21:37,920 --> 01:21:34,150 conventions out there with a George Van 1632 01:21:41,880 --> 01:21:37,930 Tassel unique collection of photos that 1633 01:21:46,790 -->

1639 01:21:59,480 --> 01:21:56,650 another and he had a couple of small 1640 01:22:01,740 --> 01:21:59,490 booklets that he you know he 1641 01:22:04,830 --> 01:22:01,750 self-published and would sell but then 1642 01:22:07,200 --> 01:22:04,840 everybody did a giant rock yeah so there 1643 01:22:08,960 --> 01:22:07,210 was the Beck collection of photos that 1644 01:22:11,520 --> 01:22:08,970 he took over the years amazing 1645 01:22:12,609 --> 01:22:11,530 collection of photos and I saw these 1646 01:22:17,830 --> 01:22:12,619 that 1647 01:22:20,259 --> 01:22:17,840 what happened was a mutual friend of 1648 01:22:26,080 --> 01:22:20,269 myself and Joe FEX published these 1649 01:22:28,449 --> 01:22:26,090 photos you know through Lulu and the 1650 01:22:30,639 --> 01:22:28,459 overall quality of the book you know 1651 01:22:33,100 --> 01:22:30,649 that it was black and white and I didn't 1652 01:22:34,929 --> 01:22:33,110 give a lot of context to the photos but 1653 01:22:37,179 --> 01:22:34,939 I you know I saw they were great photos 1654 01:22:39,850 --> 01:22:37,189 and I contacted these guys and say hey 1655 01:22:43,689 --> 01:22:39,860 I'd like to use this collection of 1656 01:22:46,409 --> 01:22:43,699 photos and put together a book about the 1657 01:22:50,529 --> 01:22:46,419 contactees kind of a who's-who of the 1658 01:22:53,919 --> 01:22:50,539 old school contact mold O'Toole yeah hmm 1659 01:22:57,580 --> 01:22:53,929 so we struck a deal and so what this 1660 01:23:00,699 --> 01:22:57,590 book will be is yes a who's who a 1661 01:23:03,729 --> 01:23:00,709 listing of the the contactees as opposed 1662 01:23:08,080 --> 01:23:03,739 to the abductors we try to delineate 1663 01:23:12,189 --> 01:23:08,090 between the two not you know stray away 1664 01:23:14,589 --> 01:23:12,199 from you know the abductees pretty much 1665 01:23:18,279 --> 01:23:14,599 started at Betty Barney Hilde and you 1666 01:23:22,179 --> 01:23:18,289 know on and on and basically looking at 1667 01:23:28,299 --> 01:23:22,189 the original contactees quote-unquote 1668 01:23:31,899 --> 01:23:28,309 from George Adamski to Truman bathroom 1669 01:23:33,310 --> 01:23:31,909 to go on and on and on so those are some 1670 01:23:36,489 --> 01:23:33,320 of the characters that will be in the 1671 01:23:43,000 --> 01:23:36,499 book each installment for each contact 1672 01:23:46,149 --> 01:23:43,010 is somewhere between 500 to 1500 words 1673 01:23:48,009 --> 01:23:46,159 you know and so that that that is kind 1674 01:23:50,729 --> 01:23:48,019 of the outline of the book and we're 1675 01:23:54,520 --> 01:23:50,739 almost done and we have some other 1676 01:23:59,020 --> 01:23:54,530 contributions between besides myself and 1677 01:24:00,939 --> 01:23:59,030 mr. Bishop so I think well I would never 1678 01:24:03,069 --> 01:24:00,949 be interested in this book well I 1679 01:24:06,939 --> 01:24:03,079 remember we had a conversation about 1680 01:24:08,350 --> 01:24:06,949 Barbour Hudson all that is she in the 1681 01:24:11,469 --> 01:24:08,360 book yes she is 1682 01:24:15,369 --> 01:24:11,479 and I I used some of your commentary oh 1683 01:24:19,299 --> 01:24:15,379 very good very good yes uh-huh but I'm 1684 01:24:21,580 --> 01:24:19,309 gonna talk about her real briefly really 1685 01:24:25,209 --> 01:24:21,590 fascinating characters there wasn't a 1686 01:24:26,310 --> 01:24:25,219 lot of women contact these you know it 1687 01:24:29,080 --> 01:24:26,320 was a 1688 01:24:31,419 --> 01:24:29,090 mostly dominated by men but you know 1689 01:24:34,839 --> 01:24:31,429 there was a handful like Dana Howard oh 1690 01:24:37,479 --> 01:24:34,849 yes a few others and there was Barbara 1691 01:24:39,040 --> 01:24:37,489 Hudson who is really interesting for a 1692 01:24:41,109 --> 01:24:39,050 lot of reasons one she was an 1693 01:24:44,350 --> 01:24:41,119 african-american woman yet 1694 01:24:46,089 --> 01:24:44,360 and uh you know she was also part of 1695 01:24:49,000 --> 01:24:46,099 that scene in New York City with 1696 01:24:50,919 --> 01:24:49,010 yourself and Jim Mosely and John keel 1697 01:24:55,060 --> 01:24:50,929 and who else am I forgetting a great 1698 01:24:57,609 --> 01:24:55,070 Barker oh yeah and so she had some 1699 01:25:01,600 --> 01:24:57,619 interesting experiences early on which 1700 01:25:04,270 --> 01:25:01,610 you know about you want to weigh in on 1701 01:25:07,660 --> 01:25:04,280 it why you know I I was going to write a 1702 01:25:10,180 --> 01:25:07,670 book with her and I would visit she she 1703 01:25:12,640 --> 01:25:10,190 lived in Harlem I think like 129th 1704 01:25:15,430 --> 01:25:12,650 Street back when Harlem was not 1705 01:25:16,750 --> 01:25:15,440 particularly a safe neighborhood and I 1706 01:25:19,000 --> 01:25:16,760 would go up there at night you know I'd 1707 01:25:22,120 --> 01:25:19,010 get off the train next to the Apollo 1708 01:25:25,300 --> 01:25:22,130 Theater on 125th Street and walk a few 1709 01:25:27,100 --> 01:25:25,310 blocks to her place now she had a 1710 01:25:30,180 --> 01:25:27,110 daughter there pair I met her parents 1711 01:25:33,220 --> 01:25:30,190 and all I mean outside of her UFO 1712 01:25:36,580 --> 01:25:33,230 experiences I mean she seemed you know 1713 01:25:39,700 --> 01:25:36,590 pretty typical I guess she had first the 1714 01:25:42,790 --> 01:25:39,710 come in contact with us when she 1715 01:25:44,950 --> 01:25:42,800 attended what a Jim Mosley's meetings 1716 01:25:50,050 --> 01:25:44,960 and she kind of you know hooked herself 1717 01:25:52,000 --> 01:25:50,060 onto the onto the the group and not only 1718 01:25:53,200 --> 01:25:52,010 I mean that she attended you a UFO 1719 01:25:56,649 --> 01:25:53,210 meetings and things like that but she 1720 01:25:58,479 --> 01:25:56,659 was you know I am a friend to to most of 1721 01:26:01,330 --> 01:25:58,489 us I mean you know she hung she hung out 1722 01:26:03,580 --> 01:26:01,340 in it we could drink a little and party 1723 01:26:07,270 --> 01:26:03,590 little and all but she she claimed that 1724 01:26:10,270 --> 01:26:07,280 there was a group of visitors and called 1725 01:26:12,609 --> 01:26:10,280 really called the group well I believe 1726 01:26:16,359 --> 01:26:12,619 yeah but that might have been for lack 1727 01:26:19,180 --> 01:26:16,369 of a of a better name she was kind of 1728 01:26:22,060 --> 01:26:19,190 ambiguous about a lot of these things 1729 01:26:27,010 --> 01:26:22,070 but basically they would pick her up in 1730 01:26:29,169 --> 01:26:27,020 a car and take her to a house somewhere 1731 01:26:31,930 --> 01:26:29,179 in New England I don't know if she ever 1732 01:26:34,330 --> 01:26:31,940 said exactly where it was and they would 1733 01:26:36,010 --> 01:26:34,340 have they would have meetings and and 1734 01:26:37,930 --> 01:26:36,020 they would teach her I guess just like 1735 01:26:39,460 --> 01:26:37,940 they did some of the other early 1736 01:26:40,960 --> 01:26:39,470 contactees 1737 01:26:43,120 --> 01:26:40,970 the things about you know life on other 1738 01:26:45,910 --> 01:26:43,130 planets and cosmic awareness and of 1739 01:26:48,760 --> 01:26:45,920 course most of them look the very human 1740 01:26:50,590 --> 01:26:48,770 in in appearance so you would say okay 1741 01:26:52,960 --> 01:26:50,600 she had these she had these stories and 1742 01:26:55,330 --> 01:26:52,970 she kind of fitted with the you know the 1743 01:26:58,270 --> 01:26:55,340 whole UFO contactee thing but she also 1744 01:27:00,430 --> 01:26:58,280 had some really crazy far-out stories 1745 01:27:03,340 --> 01:27:00,440 she claims that when she was a little 1746 01:27:04,600 --> 01:27:03,350 girl she was a coming home with her 1747 01:27:05,380 --> 01:27:04,610 parents that one night and they were 1748 01:27:08,110 --> 01:27:05,390 headed up 1749 01:27:10,420 --> 01:27:08,120 I guess just on the perimeter of Central 1750 01:27:12,820 --> 01:27:10,430 Park and and the military was there with 1751 01:27:16,480 --> 01:27:12,830 tanks and searchlights and all and there 1752 01:27:18,670 --> 01:27:16,490 was part of a wreckage to a UFO that the 1753 01:27:23,050 --> 01:27:18,680 military had shot down over Central Park 1754 01:27:25,420 --> 01:27:23,060 I mean right you know like how can you 1755 01:27:28,090 --> 01:27:25,430 say did you make that up I mean she was 1756 01:27:31,120 --> 01:27:28,100 dead set serious uh you know about it 1757 01:27:36,760 --> 01:27:31,130 then then I guess she had a lot of 1758 01:27:40,540 --> 01:27:36,770 experiences down in Oh help me out here 1759 01:27:42,610 --> 01:27:40,550 uh the the biggest swamp in I guess it 1760 01:27:44,950 --> 01:27:42,620 would be a Virginia or North Gate is 1761 01:27:46,540 --> 01:27:44,960 most swamp did the dismal swamp is no 1762 01:27:48,970 --> 01:27:46,550 slop right and I didn't remember the 1763 01:27:50,440 --> 01:27:48,980 exact particulars of it but I guess 1764 01:27:53,080 --> 01:27:50,450 there were beasties and Ghoulies and 1765 01:27:55,270 --> 01:27:53,090 cryptids and things you know running 1766 01:27:58,150 --> 01:27:55,280 around there was kind of a haunted area 1767 01:28:00,580 --> 01:27:58,160 so she was very well informed on this 1768 01:28:02,650 --> 01:28:00,590 but it didn't seem like she had read a 1769 01:28:04,840 --> 01:28:02,660 lot of the literature I mean she knew 1770 01:28:08,110 --> 01:28:04,850 about George Adamski and and people 1771 01:28:11,260 --> 01:28:08,120 along that line but she had all these 1772 01:28:14,470 --> 01:28:11,270 incredible stories to share and we could 1773 01:28:16,360 --> 01:28:14,480 never really quite figure her out and I 1774 01:28:18,460 --> 01:28:16,370 had a file here which I still have in 1775 01:28:20,950 --> 01:28:18,470 the drawer some of the notes that I took 1776 01:28:22,060 --> 01:28:20,960 they even appeared in her home up there 1777 01:28:23,530 --> 01:28:22,070 in Harlem 1778 01:28:25,180 --> 01:28:23,540 I think they beamed down from the 1779 01:28:27,520 --> 01:28:25,190 ceiling or something like that you know 1780 01:28:30,730 --> 01:28:27,530 yeah there's another yeah that was 1781 01:28:35,770 --> 01:28:30,740 another experience that she had the one 1782 01:28:38,100 --> 01:28:35,780 in Central Park she was like twelve 1783 01:28:42,490 --> 01:28:38,110 years old maybe then the next one was 1784 01:28:45,400 --> 01:28:42,500 she was fifteen where she was in bed one 1785 01:28:49,150 --> 01:28:45,410 night mist there was all kinds of fog 1786 01:28:52,030 --> 01:28:49,160 and mist in the room and some stranger 1787 01:28:53,050 --> 01:28:52,040 interred and they make eye contact and 1788 01:28:55,300 --> 01:28:53,060 he put 1789 01:28:58,570 --> 01:28:55,310 into a trance state and they went up in 1790 01:29:02,140 --> 01:28:58,580 some sort of elevator were beamed up 1791 01:29:04,960 --> 01:29:02,150 into a UFO and had you know kind of the 1792 01:29:08,230 --> 01:29:04,970 typical experience so you know that 1793 01:29:10,780 --> 01:29:08,240 those were some of the stories and you 1794 01:29:12,790 --> 01:29:10,790 know was interesting that she was at 1795 01:29:13,750 --> 01:29:12,800 least according to you and correct me if 1796 01:29:16,720 --> 01:29:13,760 I'm wrong 1797 01:29:20,380 --> 01:29:16,730 she was Jim Mosley's girl friendly well 1798 01:29:22,180 --> 01:29:20,390 yes I guess to some degree you could you 1799 01:29:24,250 --> 01:29:22,190 could say that I mean you know she did 1800 01:29:27,940 --> 01:29:24,260 hang out with him 1801 01:29:29,680 --> 01:29:27,950 the relationship was kind of loosely the 1802 01:29:31,060 --> 01:29:29,690 thing I don't think they were said are 1803 01:29:33,280 --> 01:29:31,070 going out with each other you know I 1804 01:29:36,820 --> 01:29:33,290 mean it was a kind of a free-spirited 1805 01:29:38,980 --> 01:29:36,830 type of you know a thing up Barbara like 1806 01:29:43,420 --> 01:29:38,990 the hanging party I mean yeah about this 1807 01:29:45,070 --> 01:29:43,430 way I get to of it to describe it you 1808 01:29:47,710 --> 01:29:45,080 know but there were they were a lot of 1809 01:29:51,040 --> 01:29:47,720 oddball characters one of my favorites 1810 01:29:53,170 --> 01:29:51,050 of course is buck Nelson yeah yeah he 1811 01:29:56,530 --> 01:29:53,180 hoesley hovered in the book oh he the 1812 01:29:59,590 --> 01:29:56,540 the farmer from Ana where was he for 1813 01:30:03,370 --> 01:29:59,600 Arkansas right was it Arkansas and he 1814 01:30:06,730 --> 01:30:03,380 would have his space craft convention on 1815 01:30:10,660 --> 01:30:06,740 his property every every year and it was 1816 01:30:12,460 --> 01:30:10,670 kind of a makeshift a sort of thing in 1817 01:30:14,410 --> 01:30:12,470 order to cover some expenses I think 1818 01:30:16,300 --> 01:30:14,420 they would even bring in the local 1819 01:30:17,650 --> 01:30:16,310 carnival or something you know there'd 1820 01:30:20,500 --> 01:30:17,660 be a ferris wheel going in the 1821 01:30:22,450 --> 01:30:20,510 background in a tilted war a world while 1822 01:30:24,940 --> 01:30:22,460 one of the speaker's was up on stage 1823 01:30:28,240 --> 01:30:24,950 probably without a microphone telling of 1824 01:30:30,220 --> 01:30:28,250 their contact experiences and I remember 1825 01:30:31,540 --> 01:30:30,230 there was there was a fellow at can't 1826 01:30:35,530 --> 01:30:31,550 remember his name I think it was his 1827 01:30:37,780 --> 01:30:35,540 last name was Hill and he lived nearby 1828 01:30:42,520 --> 01:30:37,790 he was a member a couple UFO groups and 1829 01:30:44,950 --> 01:30:42,530 have some synchronicities involving buck 1830 01:30:49,420 --> 01:30:44,960 Nelson so there was Buck Nelson and then 1831 01:30:52,720 --> 01:30:49,430 there was a princess Nia some ah and and 1832 01:30:55,330 --> 01:30:52,730 and his wife now III do cover them in 1833 01:30:57,340 --> 01:30:55,340 the bed yes prettiest character yes I 1834 01:30:59,200 --> 01:30:57,350 think Prince nism was the only person 1835 01:31:01,600 --> 01:30:59,210 that I could think of warfare that was 1836 01:31:04,420 --> 01:31:01,610 ever unpolite Lee told by Long John 1837 01:31:06,190 --> 01:31:04,430 Neville to leave the studio I think I 1838 01:31:08,470 --> 01:31:06,200 cover that in the book and I probably 1839 01:31:10,330 --> 01:31:08,480 got that anecdote from you oh well there 1840 01:31:12,730 --> 01:31:10,340 you go then you know an edifice that you 1841 01:31:15,100 --> 01:31:12,740 know has to be true well who cares if 1842 01:31:17,200 --> 01:31:15,110 it's right yeah yeah with the contactees 1843 01:31:19,270 --> 01:31:17,210 you got to kind of throw a truth out the 1844 01:31:21,850 --> 01:31:19,280 window the only thing less established 1845 01:31:26,110 --> 01:31:21,860 and the contactee movement would be 1846 01:31:29,110 --> 01:31:26,120 Roswell yeah you know part of the thing 1847 01:31:32,680 --> 01:31:29,120 that drove me on this book was all these 1848 01:31:34,900 --> 01:31:32,690 photos and there is a photo of his name 1849 01:31:38,620 --> 01:31:34,910 was leaked Childers and oh yeah oh
