Talking Queer Hauntings with Ken Summers Jun 15, 2022

Show notes

Queer ghosts are nothing new, even if our conversations about them are. And for Ken Summers, phenomena involving LGBTQ+ has been a long research journey. He is author of "Queer Hauntings: True Tales of Gay and Lesbian Ghosts," and in the latest Talking Strange, Summers talks about historic haunts within the queer community (such as Aleister Crowley's home), as well as cheeky, jealous ghosts. We also explore other queer entities, deities, and folklore. Also, Ken gives his advice to Kristen Stewart for her gay ghosthunting show.

Comedian, writer, producer, and actor Dana Gould has had his comedy-writing hands all over pop culture for the last couple decades.

Talking Ariel Phenomenon with Randall Nickerson May 24, 2022

Show notes

In the new documentary Ariel Phenomenon, director Randall Nickerson tells the story of a mass UFO sighting and supposed alien encounter in Zimbabwe. In 1994, at least 60 students at the Ariel School in Harare witnessed a strange craft land nearby, and observed figures with grey skin, and large, black eyes. The experience lasted about 10-15 minutes, but stayed with them to this day.

Nickerson joined Talking Strange host Aaron Sagers to discuss his nearly 20 year journey making the film, his interviews with the now-grown eyewitnesses, and shares shocking behind-the-scenes details, including about his own alien experiences. Rent Ariel Phenomenon at arielphenomenon.com.
