The Moonlight Serenaders 14-lice big band has been around for decades. The group plays a free concert in Rice Park in Saint Paul, next Wednesday, August 5, 7 to 9pm. The group's current director, percussionist Dan Marrs, and former director and current trumpeter, Linda Ness, talked to Phil Nusbaum about the group. To a greater degree than much contemporary jazz, a big band relies on all the players reading what's been composed and arranged. So Phil asked Dan and Linda about keeping everybody focused on the arrangement.

André Holland has built an acclaimed career through performances in Moonlight, Selma, The Knick, High Flying Bird, and more—but his deepest calling reaches far beyond the screen. In this conversation with Mick Hunt, André shares how his parents and his Bessemer, Alabama community taught him to move with integrity, care for his gifts, and stay shoulder to shoulder with the people who helped him flourish. He opens up about the teacher who made him feel truly seen, the responsibility he feels to create opportunities for emerging voices, and why commitment is the word he hopes will define his life. André also discusses They Fight, his preparation as a character actor, Harper Road, and the Holland Project's restoration of Bessemer's historic Lincoln Theatre. This is a conversation about calling, craft, second chances, community, and planting trees whose fruit may belong to the next generation. WHAT YOU'LL LEARN • Why André describes storytelling and service as a calling • How his parents and Alabama roots shaped his civic responsibility • Why opportunity—not a lack of talent—often separates people from their potential • The NYU classroom moment that changed André's view of his own stories • How he approaches character work with research, vulnerability, and faith • Why They Fight resonated with him as a story of mentorship and second chances • How the Holland Project and Harper Road are creating room for new voices • Why “committed” is the word André wants attached to his legacy LISTENER OFFER / FEATURED PROMOTION Watch They Fight on Hulu: https://www.hulu.com/movie/they-fight-a1bba82e-2550-4ffc-81df- b973b9c85339 Discover the Holland Project and Lincoln Theatre restoration: https://www.birminghamtimes.com/2024/10/renovating-bessemers-lincoln-theatre-andre-hollands-next- act/ CHAPTERS Timing is grounded in the supplied transcript.

Pennsylvania has played an important part in America's History. And Bucks County hosted one of the most famous moments of our country's founding, Washington crossing the Delaware in December 1776. But there's a history of high strangeness in Bucks County, too, including ghost stories, haunted houses, UFO sightings, and of course, Bigfoot sightings. This week I'm looking at some of the ape-like creatures residents have been seeing there for decades. So sit back and enjoy some of the strangest Bigfoot sightings I've covered yet...Chapters:0:00 - Bucks County: From Washington's Crossing to Bigfoot road crossings3:13 - Late-night road crossing of a Bigfoot with glowing blue eyes near Levittown11:27 -Bow hunter sees Sasquatch near Argus17:02 - Teen girl riding her bike has strange sighting in Tohickon Valley Park27:36 - Camper sees beige ape-like animal near logging road in Quakertown33:34 - Two teenagers bowhunting near Levittown see Bigfoot watching them while it eats something46:18 - Strange Bigfoot in Bucks County: Blue eyes, mindspeak & telepathy, unusual colors, and more#bigfoot #pennsylvania #cryptozoologyLinks!Follow us on Social media!Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/oddanduntold/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/oddanduntoldWebsite: https://www.oddanduntold.comMerch Store: https://oddanduntold-shop.fourthwall.com/Email me! : jason@oddanduntold.comBigfoot Sighting in Pennsylvania with Josh from York County: https://youtu.be/nLEzEzG1BPk?si=prhb09gc_uOEBvYSBigfoot Sightings in Pennsylvania | Lycoming County: https://youtu.be/pmvQT-jUOY8?si=opw7d_0IC8A-Wp2MUFO Sightings in Pennsylvania | Bucks County & Doylestown: https://youtu.be/AyVqDllDd_g?si=1W62nXI-tK8zvtsaCentralia and Other Pennsylvania Ghost Towns: https://youtu.be/dcuYEkUOF-8?si=aOyZN6VlvIcQwChdCheck out Riversend, the band behind "Moonlight," our awesome theme music!Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/track/1yIwfeu2cH1kDZaMYxKOUe?si=NIUijnmsQe6LNWOsfZ2jPwRiversend Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/RiversendbandRiversend Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/riversendband/
Step into the shadowy fringes of the unknown with My Dark Path as we unravel one of the most terrifying monster encounters of 1952—the night the Flatwoods Monster descended on West Virginia.Host MF Thomas transports you to the misty hills of Flatwoods, Braxton County, where a group of boys playing football spot a fiery object streaking across the twilight sky and crashing on a remote hillside. Joined by their mother Kathleen May and young National Guardsman Gene Lemon with his dog, they climb toward a pulsing red flare—only to confront a towering 12-foot entity with an ace-of-spades shaped hood, glowing greenish-orange eyes like searchlights, a metallic body that hovers just above the ground, and a sickening metallic stench like burning electronics. The dog flees in terror, witnesses suffer immediate nausea and raw throats, while skid marks, oily residues, strange metal fragments, and mysterious federal agents posing as reporters swarm the town—complete with vanished evidence and media frenzy that still defy explanation decades later.Was the Flatwoods Monster a genuine extraterrestrial visitor, a mechanical probe from another world, a secret government missile test and cover-up, or simply mass hysteria triggered by a meteor?This episode blends eerie narration with historical context, skeptical scrutiny, and believer's evidence. Perfect for fans of unsolved enigmas, cryptids, and the paranormal.

Step into the shadowy fringes of the unknown with My Dark Path as we unravel the eerie luminous spheres, glowing foo fighters, and humanoid encounters over war-torn Poland during World War II. Host MF Thomas transports you to occupied Warsaw and remote villages where resistance scouts, civilians, and soldiers witnessed the impossible: 18-year-old Kazimierz Bzowski's sighting of a 25-foot metallic sphere with raspberry and bluish-green hues flying low over Bonifraterska Street near the smoldering Warsaw Ghetto, completely impervious to German gunfire before vanishing toward the Old Town; the chilling Nowiny encounter where a 16-year-old and his companion faced a glowing hat-shaped craft and smiling pinkish-grey humanoids who tried to lure them aboard before an invisible force knocked them down; multiple foo fighter reports of intelligent glowing orbs darting playfully over Polish ships and uprising battlefields without hostility; and the fiery brick-red spinning disk rolling horizontally at impossible speeds across the Czudec valley—complete with Bzowski's theories of energetic stitches in Earth's energy web, hints of long-term alien surveillance, striking parallels to modern sphere, disc, and tictac UFOs, and insights from the host's own research journey across Poland. Were these secret Nazi experiments, natural anomalies, misidentified flares, or extraterrestrial observers monitoring humanity's darkest hour? This episode blends eerie narration with historical context, skeptical scrutiny, and believer's evidence. Perfect for fans of unsolved enigmas, WWII UFOs, foo fighters, and the paranormal.

Explore the enigmatic realm of unidentified flying objects through three rare, obscure photographs that have intrigued UFO researchers, skeptics, and conspiracy enthusiasts. Captured in a time before digital editing, these images—from snowy Poland, wartime China, and sunny Italy—defy simple explanations and hint at extraterrestrial observers challenging our reality.MF Thomas starts by honoring the infamous 1975 Billy Meier photo from Switzerland: a silver disc "beamship" that inspired The X-Files' "I Want to Believe" poster. Debunked as a hoax with models, strings, and confirmed by his ex-wife Kalliope and experts like Joe Nickell, it contrasts with the episode's more resilient cases.In Part 1, travel to 1959 Muszyna, Poland, where Dr. Stanislaw Kowalczewski photographed a flattened oval UFO during a winter holiday. Emerging from a yellow-orange cloud as a luminous orb, it appeared as a dark saucer on film. Experts in Warsaw papers like Stolica affirmed it 90% likely a self-luminous flying saucer. Linked to Polish UFO lore like Gdynia and Emilcin, it faded under Soviet secrecy—alien craft or artifact?Part 2 delves into WWII Pacific Foo Fighters, focusing on the 1942 Hopeh UFO photo from Tianjin, China, under Japanese occupation. This street-level shot shows a domed silver disc overhead, with pointing pedestrians. Ufologist Shi Bo attributes it to an American witness; analyses dismiss planes or shells. Tied to sightings like Sergeant Brickner's 150+ wobbling objects over Tulagi, it anchors Asian UFO history.In Part 3, relive Italian pilot Giancarlo Cecconi's 1979 Treviso encounter. Radar spotted an erratic object with a blue trail; Cecconi snapped 80+ photos of a 25-foot matte-black cigar-shaped craft with a dome, maneuvering at 300 mph. Backed by witnesses and researcher Antonio Chiumiento, who uncovered potential Ministry cover-ups. Parallels include Chiles-Whitted (1948), RB-47 (1957), and Gemini 4 (1965) cylinders.For all references and music, visit https://www.mydarkpath.com/78-historical-ufo-photosBuy MF Thomas' novels on Amazon.

Send us Fan Mail In this episode, Marty gives Clif the movie Moonlight to watch and Clif gives Marty the movie The Martian to watch. Clif and Marty blast off to Mars before coming back down to Earth for one of the most acclaimed dramas of the last decade.First up is The Martian, where Matt Damon finds himself stranded on the Red Planet with nothing but potatoes, duct tape, disco and an unreasonable amount of optimism. Clif and Marty debate the film's direction, pacing and if the science is 'hard' or not.Then they turn to Moonlight, Barry Jenkin's Academy Award winning coming-of-age drama starring Mahershala Ali. Clif and Marty discuss quiet storytelling, unforgettable performances and how the film's themes of identity and loneliness create a powerful counterpoint to The Martian. Sometimes the biggest journey isn't through space. It's figuring out who you are.Along the way: 1980s slang, listener mail and potatoes as a survival strategy.#TalkingPondo #FilmPodcast #TheMartian #Moonlight #MattDamon #MahershalaAli #MovieReview #SciFiMovies Support the showFind our films here:The Love Song of William H ShawRevenge of ZoeWriting Fren-ZeeMaking Pondo on FacebookX (formerly Twitter):@MakingPondoInstagramMaking Pondo on Letterboxd:Season OneSeason TwoSeason ThreeSeason FourTheme Song "The Rain" by Russ PacePhotos by Geoffrey Notkin

Step into the shadowy fringes of the unknown with My Dark Path as we unravel the hypnotic revelations of the 1960s with Dr. Leo Sprinkle, the mild-mannered psychologist who became the go-to hypnotist for alien abductees.Host MF Thomas transports you to the quiet campus of the University of Wyoming in Laramie, where soft-spoken Dr. Ronald Leo Sprinkle guides ordinary people into trance to recover memories of the impossible: Nebraska police sergeant Herb Schirmer paralyzed by greenish gas aboard a disc-shaped craft piloted by gray-skinned entities wearing winged serpent emblems and issuing telepathic warnings of a human breeding program, North Dakota mother Sandy Larson lifted by orange spheres to face mummy-wrapped beings with segmented metallic arms who removed and examined her brain through a nostril probe, Wyoming rancher Pat McGuire telepathically instructed to drill a miracle well on his dry land before facing repeated abductions and cattle mutilations, and New Mexico waitress Myrna Hansen witnessing mid-air cattle dissections before descending into the vast caverns of Dulce Base lined with translucent vats of dismembered bodies and floating human-alien hybrid fetuses—complete with government disinformation campaigns, Sprinkle's own childhood abduction memory of a tall mentor aboard a craft, and careers shattered by ridicule that continue to defy explanation.Was Dr. Sprinkle unlocking genuine extraterrestrial encounters through hypnosis, shaping false memories via suggestion, or unwittingly aiding a covert government psy-op that destroyed lives?This episode blends eerie narration with historical context, skeptical scrutiny, and believer's evidence. Perfect for fans of unsolved enigmas, UFO hypnosis, and the paranormal.
Step into the shadowed woods of early 20th-century Italy with My Dark Path as we uncover two extraordinary close encounters that echo the mysteries of the alleged 1933 Magenta RS/33 UFO crash and recovery.Host MF Thomas guides you through the humid Ferretto woods near Terontola, where battle-hardened veteran Astore Chiucini stumbles upon a glowing green circular craft and two hooded figures performing calm, deliberate repairs—before the silent machine rises with an earth-shaking roar and vanishes into the night. Then travel to the damp woodlands outside Abbiate Guazzone in Lombardy, where factory worker Bruno Facchini witnesses a metallic disc with bluish lights and small suited beings. When discovered, one fires a crackling fan of white-blue light that paralyzes and burns him—leaving physical scars, strange lightweight metal fragments, and a lifelong silence broken only years later.These two ordinary Italian men—years apart—described nearly identical scenes: landed circular craft, hooded or helmeted figures in tight suits working on repairs, silent departures defying known aviation, and physical evidence that lingered. Set against the backdrop of secret post-war aircraft testing near SIAI-Marchetti facilities in Vergiate and the rumored RS/33 program, these cases blur the line between coincidence and hidden context. Were they experimental human tech, or something truly not of this world?This episode blends immersive narration, historical context, skeptical analysis, and the enduring power of eyewitness testimony from men who offered to swear oaths or kept fragments hidden under their beds. Perfect for fans of classic UFO close encounters, Italian ufology, physical trace cases, and the unexplained.

What if North Korea tried to capture an asteroid and turn it into a second moon? What if they created their own version of Godzilla — a giant iron-eating monster that leads a peasant revolution?This is the bizarre, wildly imaginative, and heavily propagandistic world of North Korean science fiction.In this episode of My Dark Path, host MF Thomas explores the surprising stories, books, and films created under the Kim regime — from the thrilling asteroid-mining epic Course No. 651 to Pulgasari (North Korea's homegrown kaiju classic), children's propaganda tales, robots, space battles, and how Kim Jong-il personally sparked a sci-fi boom to shape the future.Timestamps:0:00 – Course No. 651: North Korea's Plan to Create a Second Moon4:05 – Welcome to My Dark Path7:10 – The Division of Korea & the Birth of the DPRK12:55 – Socialist Realism and the Rise of North Korean Sci-Fi18:40 – Kim Jong-il's 1988 Speech That Sparked a Sci-Fi Boom24:15 – Robots, Propaganda & Anti-American Themes29:50 – Social Science Fiction & the Politics of NK Sci-Fi35:10 – Children's Sci-Fi: Brainwashing the Next Generation40:05 – Pulgasari: North Korea's Insane Homegrown Godzilla43:35 – Final Thoughts: What North Korean Sci-Fi RevealsIf you love weird history, propaganda deep-dives, and stories that sound too crazy to be true, this episode is for you.

The Strange Brew - artist stories behind the greatest music ever recorded
Philip Norman returns to talk about Mr. Moonlight, his first book devoted entirely to Brian Epstein, and what emerges from decades of Beatles research focused through a single lens is a portrait more complex than the one most people think they know. Norman reveals the extraordinary story of how the Kray twins plotted to exploit Brian’s gambling addiction and seize control of The Beatles, the antisemitism and homophobia Brian faced even at the peak of his success, and new evidence around the circumstances of his death that raises serious questions about the official verdict. Philip also covers areas that too often gets overlooked: Brian’s family history, his time in the army and at drama school, his instinct for a hit record, and the way he shielded The Beatles from a fame that might otherwise have consumed them. The question Norman keeps returning to is the one that still stings: why, given everything he did, does Brian Epstein undervalued? Further information Philip Norman — Mr. Moonlight: Brian Epstein and the Making of the Beatles Support The Strange Brew Podcasts also available: Philip Norman on the Beatles, Philip Norman on John Lennon, Ray Ennis – The Swinging Blue Jeans, Mike McCartney's Early Liverpool This podcast is also available on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, Google apps and all usual platforms The post Brian Epstein and the Making of the Beatles appeared first on The Strange Brew .

What if Norwegian fighter jets spotted a massive silvery disc crashed in the remote Arctic ice of Spitsbergen? What if it contained revolutionary anti-gravity technology, exotic alloys unknown to Earth science, and markings that sparked Cold War panic?This is the bizarre, shadowy, and endlessly debated tale of the 1952 Spitsbergen UFO incident — one of the earliest and most influential “crashed saucer” stories of the UFO era.In this episode of My Dark Path, host MF Thomas explores the intriguing story behind the Spitsbergen reports — from the sensational German newspaper claims of a spinning disc recovered by Norwegian forces, to descriptions of advanced propulsion systems, possible Soviet or extraterrestrial origins, the rapid spread through global media, and the growing questions about whether any of it was real… or an elaborate hoax born in the paranoia of the early Cold War.**Timestamps:** 0:00 – The 1952 Spitsbergen UFO Crash Report 4:05 – Welcome to My Dark Path 7:10 – The Early 1950s UFO Craze and Cold War Tensions 12:55 – Norwegian Jets Discover the Crashed Disc 18:40 – Exotic Technology Claims: Anti-Gravity, Unknown Alloys, and Mysterious Markings 24:15 – Military Recovery, Investigations, and International Intrigue 29:50 – How the Story Spread and Evolved 35:10 – Unraveling the Hoax: Origins in the German Press 40:05 – Cold War Disinformation, Propaganda, and the Power of Belief 43:35 – Final Thoughts: What the Spitsbergen Hoax Reveals About UFO History If you love weird history, UFO deep-dives, Cold War mysteries, and stories that sound too crazy to be true, this episode is for you.

Philip Norman's latest biography, Mr. Moonlight (DaCapo Press, 2026) is the definitive, comprehensive biography of Brian Epstein--the man who built the Beatles. There will never be another pop manager like Brian Epstein, the young record-retailer from Liverpool behind the 20th century's greatest romance. Having achieved his much-derided aim of making the Beatles "bigger than Elvis," Brian went on to make them bigger than any earthly instrument could measure. Only a handful of years older, he nonetheless referred them as "the Boys," protecting and pampering them like the children he could never hope to have. Due to his homosexuality--and possibly his Jewishness--Brian received no public honor (or even thanks) for this incalculable contribution to Britain's exports, let alone the national morale. He may not have been the best dealmaker for the Beatles, but in his hands, their guiding principles were always good taste, niceness to their fans, and value for money. Yet his only tangible memorials are a blue plaque marking his former office in London's theatreland and a modest bronze statue near the site of his family's electrical goods store in Liverpool. Mr. Moonlight draws on a cache of never-before-heard audio interviews to tell the story of this hugely complex, self-contradictory, and ultimately tragic character. From his Pre-Beatles years--the eight different expensive private schools at which he failed to shine, his problematic career as an army National Serviceman, his vague ambitions to be a couturier--through his management of the Beatles, where he turned a quartet of unruly young musicians in cracked black leather into a worldwide religion, up to his supposedly "incautious" overdoses in 1967 at aged 32, and the calamity that followed. As John Lennon said upon hearing the news, "Then we're fucked!"--and they were. Learn more about your ad choices.
