Podcasts about third kind

Many people who have more than a passing interest in the UFO subject might be aware that the scene in Steven Spielberg's 1977 movie, Close Encounters of the Third Kind, where several UFOs go speeding by the main character's stalled car, followed by police cars in hot pursuit, was based on a real case. This was the 1966 incident where police officers Dale Spaur and Wilbur “Barney” Neff reportedly chased a single UFO at high speed across the state of Ohio into Pennsylvania, with other officers joining them in the chase. However, another scene in the movie, where a house occupied by a mother and son is flooded with light from a UFO, was also inspired by a real case, but this one is not nearly so well known.The front-page headline of the November 1963 APRO Bulletin is “Family Beseiged [sic] by Discs.” According to the article, on October 21, 1963, at his ranch near Tranca, Argentina, Antonio de Moreno was woken up by a fifteen-year-old employee who told him there seemed to have been an accident at the railway tracks about a half mile away from the house, as, in the reporter's words, “there was a lot of light and people moving around at that location.” Read more →Thank you for Supporting Us! ~ Stay Connected!

Join us as we take a deep dive back to 1977 with a review for Steven Spielberg's “CLOSE ENCOUNTERS OF THE THIRD KIND.' + Pop culture news and recommendations for both, TV and film. Mixed and edited by: Wesley Swanson.

On this jam-packed episode of Talking Guitars and Music News, we kicked things off with the world premiere of my brand-new demo/review for the Lock-It Guitar Strap—fresh from a local music shop right here in Santa Cruz. I put it through its paces, even testing it out on a killer Hondo Revival Explorer I spotted at the shop. That guitar had some serious vibes… and yes, I might be going back for it!

This week we dive headlong into one of the most baffling 80's video store hits, The Wraith, in which Charlie Sheen is a ghost or an alien or a ghost alien who gets revenge on the wily gang of Arizona cretins that murdered him by running them over with his magic ghost alien car. The Wraith is a lot of things. Good is not one of them but it has a certain ineffable charm that makes it tremendously fun to watch in spite of its story being positively incidental to the rest of the movie. It casts the widest possible net to remind you of movies like Close Encounters of the Third Kind, Death Wish 3, and The Road Warrior. Do you like cool cars? Do you like explosions? Do you like aliens, ghosts, or ghost aliens? Are you willing to let slide about a dozen totally unresolved plot points and completely ignore the fact that this movie leaves you with more questions than answers? You will probably love The Wraith.The soundtrack rules. Sheen seems completely unaware of the movie he's in. A pre-Twin Peaks Sherilyn Fenn is doing her best with what she has. Clint Howard gloriously answers our question: is it a wig? All this and more in our exhaustive breakdown of The Wraith from director Mike Marvin.Want to try Bring Me The Axe premium content for a month at no charge?

Considering that it seems most people go to Wyoming to be left alone, it's somewhat surprising that the overarching theme of this week's movies is people having their peace stolen from them. Whether it's drunken murderers, aliens looking for an EDM concert or a small child driving a man to triple homicide with his incessant questions - Wyoming has something for everyone Learn more about your ad choices.

Currently Chris is focusing more on historical research as well as archaeology in the Northeast – particularly in regards to Native American sites and stone structures. The two discuss punk rock and the divisiveness in the scene nowadays – as well as general divisiveness in the country;  covid stuff; Chris's background in paranormal research – how he got into it, his experiences with it, and a real heavy discussion about the experiences that led to why Chris chose to stop actively investigating UFO's; regression analysis; negative experiences/encounters with non-human intelligences, bigfoot tie-ins, synchronicity, the Bridgewater Triangle and the strange phenomena there, and his current interests in regards to historical / colonial UFO cases as well as Northeastern archaeology/Native American sites.  For more info on Chris: IG: @amongthedeadcities / @fromantquity http://www.cellarwalls.com http://www.cellarwalls.com/ufo   As always, please hit the subscribe button if you like and support what we do!

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. (The Witch Hunter List of Seven Princes In Hell)ABOUT WEIRD DARKNESS: Weird Darkness is a true crime and paranormal podcast narrated by professional award-winning voice actor, Darren Marlar.
