Show notes

Gene and Randall introduce Gray Scott, a futurist, philosopher, and artist who specializes in the philosophy of technology, digital consciousness, and humanity's technological evolution.

From the Saturn hexagon to African fractals to the Fibonacci sequence found in the growth patterns of every plant on Earth, we are surrounded by geometric, repetitive, numerical patterns—patterns we have only begun to recognize and quantify.” During the interview, Gray reveals his long-time interest in the paranormal and experiencers, UFO intelligences and the nature of the contact experience.

December 13, 2020 — Preston Dennett Dec 13, 2020

Show notes

UFO researcher and author Preston Dennett visits Gene and Randall and brings with him a number of the sightings he’s written about over the years. He focuses primarily on his 2020 book, “UFOs at the Drive-In” covering sightings by movie-watchers over the years in the U.S. Just imagine: you’re watching your favorite movie at the local drive-in theater when suddenly you see a strange flying object swoop down from above and hover right over the movie screen. The object is metallic, saucer-shaped, with portholes and colored lights, and is totally silent. It’s a UFO! Cars start honking and flashing their lights. People exit their cars, pointing and screaming. Some drive away in terror. Then the UFO starts to move around over the theater putting on a show that’s far more interesting than the movie itself! It may sound like science fiction, except it’s true! Preston is a field investigator for the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON), a ghost hunter, a paranormal researcher, and the author of more than 24 books and more than 100 articles about UFOs and the paranormal.
