Podcasts about close encounters

My guest for this episode is author and historian Karl Bell, who joined me to talk about his new book, The Perilous Deep: A Supernatural History of the Atlantic. Karl is Associate Professor in Cultural and Social History and Co-Director of the Centre for Port Cities and Maritime Cultures at the University of Portsmouth. Prior to his latest work, he wrote The Legend of Spring-Heeled Jack, which was winner of the 2013 Katharine Briggs Award. As its title mentions, The Perilous Deep focuses on the Atlantic Ocean. This is a place whose vastness and unfathomable depths have inspired tales of ghost ships, reports of encounters with mermaids and sea monsters, and legends of mysterious islands for centuries. These stories were told by both seafarers and coastal communities and formed an important part of their culture. In the book, Karl explores why these stories were told, how they were repeated and mutated and what fears, anxieties and desires they helped to express. It offers an insight into the supernatural history of the Atlantic Ocean and some of its neighbouring seas, showing how seafaring peoples have developed knowledge and a sense of control over nature through myths and legends. The Perilous Deep is published by Reaktion Books - further details are available at https://reaktionbooks.co.uk/work/the-perilous-deep.

Jose Lugo grew up in one of Los Angeles' toughest neighborhoods, where violence, broken family, and survival shaped his early life. After joining the Crips in high school, Jose got caught up in a string of robberies and was sentenced to 5 years in prison. From the brutal reality of L.A. County Jail to life inside a California state prison as a gang member, Jose reveals what it was really like behind bars — and what it took to walk away from the streets. In this raw and emotional interview, he shares the painful process of self-forgiveness, leaving the gang life behind, and how he's fighting for redemption every single day. #GangLife #CripsStory #LifeAfterPrison #LACountyJail #CaliforniaPrison #PrisonRedemption #StreetToRedemption #lockedinpodcast Connect with Jose Lugo: https://therealjoselugo.com/ Hosted, Executive Produced & Edited By Ian Bick: https://www.instagram.com/ian_bick/?hl=en https://ianbick.com/ Get 50% off the Magic Mind offer here: https://www.magicmind.com/IANB50. #magicmind #mentalwealth #mentalperformance Presented by Tyson 2.0 & Wooooo Energy: https://tyson20.com/ https://woooooenergy.com/ Buy Merch: http://www.ianbick.com/shop Timestamps: 00:00:00 Jose Lugo's Struggles and Upbringing 00:05:44 Family Struggles and Foster Care Fears 00:11:38 Early School Challenges and Homeschooling 00:17:37 Understanding Intense Racial Dynamics 00:23:32 Life After High School: A Turning Point 00:30:07 Close Encounter at the Store 00:36:23 Intense Police Standoff Experience 00:42:40 Navigating Racial Dynamics in Jail 00:48:21 Navigating Early Gang Dynamics in County Jail 00:54:46 Surviving a Brutal Attack: A Raw Account 01:01:01 Finding Inner Strength and Support 01:06:59 Realizations on Gang Life and Change 01:13:01 Overcoming Anxiety and Announcing Non-Activity 01:18:49 Life Under Threat: Surviving Gang Politics 01:25:15 Embracing a New Life Away from Violence 01:31:33 Overcoming Desperation and Finding Faith 01:38:05 Finding Clarity Amidst the Noise Powered by: Just Media House : https://www.justmediahouse.com/ Creative direction, design, assets, support by FWRD: https://www.fwrd.co Learn more about your ad choices.

Don't Whistle at Night welcomes Benjamin Smith Date: July 6th, 2025 EP: 11 Topic: Benjamin will be discussing his close encounters with a lizard, man, witchcraft, and Bigfoot! About Our Guest: Benjamin Smith is an experienced Navajo bow hunter and resident. He is no stranger to the highly strange events and occurrences which encompass The Navajo Nation. Benjamin has had a close call with a Lizard man, witchcraft encounters and a very personal “ up way too close “ encounter with a Bigfoot. He is an active team member of Álílee Na'alkaah .

A 16th-century witch hunter believed each person is caught between a guardian angel and their own personal demon — one who knows their deepest habits and weaknesses — and he mapped out the seven princes of Hell who rule over humanity's sins.Join the DARKNESS SYNDICATE: https://weirddarkness.com/syndicateIN THIS EPISODE: You might have heard someone say during a severe storm, “it's raining cats and dogs out there!” Of course, it wasn't really raining felines and Fidos. But there have been instances of it raining frogs and fish. But did you hear about the time when for two-weeks straight it rained rocks and stones? (Raining Rocks, Storming Stones) *** In the film “Close Encounters of the Third Kind” the ending… sorry, spoiler here, but it has been since 1977 so you have had plenty of time to see it… at the end of the film, the aliens drop off dozens of humans that they've abducted over the years, and then welcome a volunteer human to leave with them – like an extraterrestrial foreign exchange student program. It's a fascinating concept, an extremely well-written premise for the film… but could that actually happen? Better question… has it already happened? (The Zeta Reticuli and Project Serpo) *** It could be argued that while William H. Bonney, better known as Billy the Kid, was a real person in history – that his story is more legend than fact. But then, being a notorious outlaw, pretending to die, and convincing everyone you are dead – then living out the rest of your life until you were an old man… that does probably deserve the label of “legend'. Is that story the fact… or is it fiction? (The Billy The Kid Conspiracy) *** Stories of giant, winged predators in the sky streaking down and attacking children and even full-grown men have been around since… well… ever. Some don't believe it possible, but if you do a Google search for “man-eating bird” you'll quickly find out they were not only real – but alive not that long ago. Or, perhaps… still soaring the skies, looking for their next meal… especially in and around New England. (Man-Eating Thunderbirds of New England) *** We've all heard of guardian angels – the idea that each one of us has a personal, supernatural protector following us at all times, battling for our souls to keep us from spiritual harm, if not physical. But if that's true – could we also each have a personal demon as well? A being also battling for our souls to send us to hell? One famous witch hunter believed exactly that.

Two of the most well known and documented cases of Close Encounters of the 2nd Kind... The Socorro Incident and The Rendlesham Forest Incident

From the dawn of time, man has been fascinated by the stars and what — or more importantly, who — is out there. Unsurprisingly, from the dawn of filmmaking, Hollywood has been also been fascinated by visiting (and visitors from) other worlds. One of the earliest silent films, A Trip to the Moon, was about shooting astronauts to the moon (using a cannon) and the alien creatures they find. There are countless movies about aliens and here are four I think you should watch.Close Encounters of the Third Kind (1977)Roy Neary's life is turned upside-down after having a close encounter with a UFO. After being tormented by visions and a need to know more, Roy meets others experiencing the same thing and travels to Devil's Tower in Wyoming where Roy, the government, and the aliens all arrive for a monumental concert. Directed by Steven Spielberg and starring Richard Dreyfuss, Teri Garr, and Melinda Dillion, Close Encounters of the Third Kind is one of the greatest films about alien encounters ever made. A must watch, no matter what planet you're from.Starcrash (1978)Hot on the heels of 1977's Star Wars came a wave of films “influenced” by George Lucas's masterpiece. In Starcrash, a smuggler and her alien sidekick go on a mission to rescue a prince from an evil character with a gigantic space weapon that can destroy planets. Sound familiar? Did I mention the alien sidekick uses a lightsaber? Perhaps “influenced” is too light of a word. Starcrash is not the best space opera of all time, but it's an interesting time capsule from 1978; one of many movies that also took place in a galaxy far, far away. Starcrash features great sets, a goofy plot… and David Hasselhoff. The Last Starfighter (1984)Alex Rogan wants nothing more than to escape his small town and that opportunity presents itself after he beats the world record on an arcade game called The Last Starfighter. The arcade game is actually a recruiting tool, and before long a shifty alien named Centauri arrives to take Alex to space where he will become a Starfighter — for real! Featuring (then) groundbreaking CGI, lots of alien action, and the final theatrical performance of Robert Preston.Naked Space/Spaceship/The Creature Wasn't Nice (1981)No matter what name you see this movie under, they're all the same… and none of them are good! This “horror/comedy” that loosely parodies Alien stars Leslie Nielson, Cindy Williams, Gerrit Graham, Patrick Macnee, and (writer/director) Bruce Kimmel. After exploring a newly discovered planet, the crew of the Spaceship Vertigo bring a small organism (goo) on board that quickly grows into a large monster. When Dr. Stark figures out a way to connect the monster's brain to the ship's computer, they are able for the first time to hear the monster's thoughts. And boy, is that monster hungry…Movies about aliens and outer space are always fun summer viewing. Rent one of these films and pop an extra bucket of popcorn, just in case someone from “out there” stops by to join you.Thanks for reading Video Store Podcast!

Tonight on Veritas our special guest is Trey Hudson, director of the Anomalous Studies and Observation Group and guardian of a hidden clearing whispered about as “the South's Skinwalker Ranch.” Picture this: you push through a wall of pine needles, the moon erased, your breath loud in your ears. The forest suddenly drops away and you step into a meadow so silent it feels unplugged. No insects, no wind, only a charged hush. Without warning a cube of crimson light blinks on ten feet above the grass. There is no lamp, no shadow. You raise a thermal scope that should blaze white, yet the teammates standing beside you have vanished from the screen. Two endless minutes crawl by before they fade back in, insisting they never moved. That was the first night. Since then Trey's team of soldiers, medics, and physicists has logged hundreds of anomalies. Plasma spheres drifting like watchful lanterns. A midnight visitor in a tailored suit stepping from the trees to demand an escort down a one-way track. Radios that spit phrases in forgotten tongues. One teammate who, on thermal video, briefly transformed into a globe of light and then returned to flesh. To confront the unknown the group carries contact plaques modeled on NASA probes, practices Close Encounter of the Fifth Kind meditation, and trains in military remote viewing. More than once they have awakened with the words “Nox Magbee,” said to mean kin of the night goddess, echoing in their minds. Is this meadow a doorway, a mirror, or bait? Why does it echo the notorious ranch in Utah yet hide beneath the Mason–Dixon line? And what happens when human curiosity meets something that can rewrite time itself? Tonight we crack open the Meadow diaries, shadow Trey Hudson into the unknown, and ask if we are pushing the frontier, or trespassing on ground already claimed by something waiting in the dark.

In this episode, two of Justin's close-range UFO encounters are shared. The first took place during a quiet evening on the front porch of his home, when he looked up to see a large, disc-shaped craft hovering low over the neighborhood. It moved slowly, completely silent, with a ring of white lights underneath and a strange, circuit-like texture across its surface. The second encounter happened a few years later. While riding as a passenger in his sister's car, Justin witnessed an enormous triangular craft drifting just above the treetops. Despite its massive size, it moved slowly and silently. Both sightings left a lasting impression on Justin. But first, before we hear from Justin, we have two voice submissions sent in from Ben in the UK and Bob in the US.More information on this episode on the podcast website:https://ufochroniclespodcast.com/ep-339-the-georgia-skies/Hidden Cults (Promo)It is a documentary-style podcast that digs deep into the world's most extreme, elusive, and explosive fringe groups.

For Father's Day lets give an award to the craziest Sci-Fi Dads! We look at a gaggle of papas, both good and bad on Enjoy Stuff! Who had the most traumatizing parenting moment? Who should never use time travel? These are the important questions we answer during the Enjoy Stuff Sci-Fi Dad awards.    Check out our TeePublic store for some enjoyable swag and all the latest fashion trends What we're Enjoying Jay has a problem and no one else can help, but don't worry, he found the A-Team! He's been watching the first season of the classic 80s series with Mr. T, George Peppard, Dirk Benedict, and Dwight Schultz. It's tons of nostalgic fun! Shua had a ton of nostalgic fun seeing Karate Kid: Legends, with Jackie Chan and Ralph Macchio. It was a smooth blending of the two franchises with that legendary karate tournament storyline. In theaters now.      Sci-Fi Saturdays This week on Sci-Fi Saturdays Jay links to a Jaeger to fight Kaiju in the 2012 monster story Pacific Rim. It was a good romp with giants, starring Idris Elba, Charlie Hunnam, and Rinko Kikuchi. Read his article on RetroZap.com. And make sure to play around with the interactive map on MCULocationScout.com. Plus, you can tune in to SHIELD: Case Files where Jay and Shua talk about great stuff in the MCU. Enjoy Dads!  We all came from somewhere, and one half that made that possible was your Dad, even in science fiction. We found dozens of Sci-Fi Fathers and chose the ones that deserve awards.
