  • Joshua Cutchin: Fourth Wall Phantoms
    Jun 25 2025

    Holy moly, how is everyone? Great to hear! This week, my guest is my good buddy and brilliant author, Joshua Cutchin! I'm a massive fan of every book he's written, and he has really outdone himself with his newest offering, Fourth Wall Phantoms. Josh and I have a deep discussion about his latest book, without spoiling anything (I promise!). We get into the concept of fictional incursions, the non-physicality of the UFO phenomenon, and why we might just need better stories. I LOVE LOVE LOVE this book so much. I truly can't recommend it enough, my friends. If you were to read one Fortean book this year, this is the one. That's a Bergantee! Enjoy!

    Love, Steve

  • Alex Matsuo: Theater of the Paranormal
    Jun 19 2025

    HI friends! This week, I'm joined by the brilliant, Alex Matsuo! I've wanted to chat with Alex for a long time now, so this was a real thrill for me. Alex is an author, and investigator who delves deep into the paranormal. She walks the walk, and contributes to the field of the strange and unusual in a multitude of wonderful ways. We chat about some of the investigations she's been on, why theaters are a magnet for the paranormal, Shakespheare conspiracies, and much more. Enjoy!

    Love, Steve

  • Bradley Plaisier: Preserving the Past and Other Assorted Tales
    Jun 12 2025

    Hey buds! This week my guest is Bradley Plaisier! Bradley is a true head, and an extremely knowledgeable cat on UFO history, and a lover of gnomes. We get into some of his UFO experiences, the preservation of rare documents, weird Michigan and much more. Bradley was kind of enough to provide some show notes, and links to some of the subjects we cover. What a nice guy! I loved chatting with him so much - he's a kindred spirit. Enjoy, friends!

    Love, Steve


    Here’s all of the Marcello Truzzi material I’ve scanned so far. (Any additional Truzzi stuff I scan will be added to this folder. )

    Truzzi’s excellent essay in The Fringes of Reason, “Skeptics and Pseudo-skeptics”.

    I mentioned that Passport To Magonia was a very formative book for me. Here’s a few more: Franz Hartmann’s Among The Gnomes, Books of Blood (Vol. 1-6) by Clive Barker, Killing Hope by William Blum and, of course, Mirage Men by Mark Pilkington.

    I am begging you, beautiful listener, to please explore The Professor’s wonderful old blog, The Big Study

    And while you’re at it, do yourself a favor and follow my pal @oddoldnews on Twitter and/or subscribe to his substack.
