His past work includes books on theology and science fiction, curating exhibitions on Edgar Allan Poe and Mark Twain, and working as part of the editorial team for Philip K. Dick's EXEGESIS. His most recent book is THE SAUCERIAN: UFOs, MEN IN BLACK, AND THE UNBELIEVABLE LIFE OF GRAY BARKER.Visit Gabriel online at: https://gabrielmckee.com/THE SAUCERIAN can be ordered from Amazon here, it will be released on April 22, 2025: https://www.amazon.com/Saucerian-UFOs-Black-Unbelievable-Barker/dp/0262049546/Info about THE SAUCERIAN:Gray Barker (1925–1984) was an eccentric literary outsider, filled with ideas that were out of step with the world. An author and unreliable narrator of implausible stories, Barker founded and operated Saucerian Books, an independent publisher of books about flying saucers and other ideas at the fringes of popular discourse. In The Saucerian, Gabriel Mckee tells the fascinating story of Barker's West Virginia–based press, the unique corpus of materials it published, and how office-copying and self-publishing techniques influenced the spread of paranormal beliefs and conspiratorial worldviews over the last century. Following the development of UFO subculture, Mckee explores the life and career of a larger-than-life hoaxer and originator of pseudoscientific ideas.Ever an entertainer, Barker established his reputation with one of the first flying saucer fanzines, The Saucerian, and with his first book, the conspiratorial and sensationalistic They Knew Too Much about Flying Saucers. By the close of the 1950s, he had established a publishing imprint that brought out some of the strangest UFO-related books of the era, with a particular emphasis on flying saucer contactees. Saucerian Books became a platform for those whose stories were too unusual, implausible, or crudely written for more mainstream publishers. Though Barker himself was a skeptic, he viewed the world of occult believers as a source of ongoing entertainment. He also may have used the perceived eccentricity of flying saucer research, or “ufology,” to obscure his homosexuality from his small-town neighbors. From his place on the fringes of midcentury American culture, Barker left an unmatched legacy in conspiratorial concepts that have become prominent pop-cultural folklore, including the Men in Black, the Mothman, and the Philadelphia Experiment. As a mastermind behind the fantastical, Barker's promotional efforts were the precursor to contemporary conspiracism.Gabriel visits with Talking Weird to chat about the amazing life of Gray Barker, and his profound impact on the development of UFO belief.This is an incredible episode, one filled with stories about early Ufology, that you do not want to miss!

Decades before the 1997 sci-fi comedy "Men In Black" launched a multibillion dollar film franchise, a young folklorist, UFO promoter Gray Barker helped to spread the original MIB concept in a book, They Knew Too Much About Flying Saucers. The details about Barker's colorful life is told in Gabriel Mckee's book, The Saucerian: The Unbelievable Life of Gray Barker (MIT Press). It's the strange, but true biography of a central purveyor and promoter of flying saucer and conspiracist knowledge in the mid-twentieth century. Known mostly to people in the UFO field, Barker (who died in 1984) was an eccentric literary outsider, filled with ideas that were out of step with the world. An author and unreliable narrator of implausible stories, Barker founded and operated Saucerian Books, an independent publisher of books about flying saucers and other ideas at the fringes of popular discourse. In The Saucerian, Gabriel Mckee tells the fascinating story of Barker's West Virginia–based press, the unique corpus of materials it published, and how office-copying and self-publishing techniques influenced the spread of paranormal beliefs and conspiratorial worldviews over the last century. Following the development of UFO subculture, Mckee explores the life and career of a larger-than-life hoaxer and originator of pseudoscientific ideas. In return, Gene and cohost Tim Swartz talk about their own encounters with Barker and his friends over the years. This is an episode you won't want to miss.

Send us a textWhat happens when social media shifts from an obligatory marketing checkbox to a strategic centerpiece of your brand-building efforts? Jen McKee, founder of Kee Hart Marketing, joins Crystal to unpack exactly how contractors and home service businesses can leverage authentic social content to transform their online presence.For too many business owners, social media feels like a frustrating time sink without clear returns. Jen dismantles this misconception by introducing her proven 3S Framework—Show Up, Stand Out, and Scale—a strategic approach that balances engaging content (50%), educational material (30%), and promotional messaging (20%). This intentional mix is what separates social accounts that algorithms love from those that struggle for visibility.The conversation tackles the elephant in the room: ROI expectations for social media. Rather than direct lead attribution, Jen explains how successful social strategies typically progress through three phases—increased visibility among personal networks, enhanced recruitment capabilities, and finally, broader community recognition. This marathon approach takes 6-12 months to fully materialize but creates lasting brand equity no quick-win strategy can match.You'll walk away with immediately actionable insights: scheduling dedicated weekly social media time, determining realistic posting frequency, creating a content calendar using the "Four C's" approach, and focusing on authentic team content rather than generic stock imagery. As Crystal emphasizes, social media doesn't work in isolation—it amplifies every other marketing effort and community involvement initiative.Whether you're struggling to start your social media journey or looking to revitalize a stagnant approach, this conversation provides both the strategic framework and tactical steps to transform your digital presence into a genuine competitive advantage.If you enjoyed this chat From the Yellow Chair, consider joining our newsletter, "Let's Sip Some Lemonade," where you can receive exclusive interviews, our bank of helpful downloadables, and updates on upcoming content.

This week, Dr. Scott McKee explores one of the most personal and powerful lines of Psalm 23: “Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for You are with me.” With heartfelt vulnerability, Dr. McKee shares reflections from his own journey through serious illness and reminds us that valleys—whether of grief, illness, or fear—are never the destination. They are places of God's presence and provision. Through rich imagery, scriptural depth, and pastoral wisdom, this message invites us to rediscover the comfort, strength, and fearless hope found in the Good Shepherd who walks with us always—even through death's shadow. A deeply moving and faith-anchoring sermon for anyone navigating a valley of their own.
