UTAH MONOLITH - UTAH DPS

What’s going on with that mysterious Utah monolith? What’s going on with Brendan Maze and his new “plague refugee” Substack newsletter? The small-town desert real-estate market is hot, for now, and he’s got some tips on the sorts of under-appreciated properties you might be able to afford. Especially if 10 or 12 of you go in on it, together.

This is Episode #111.

New soundscapes from RedBlueBlackSilver, and don’t forget to check out his new album, Five Flora. You might recognize some of the tracks.

#110: CONCRETE JESUS

desert christ park desert oracle

An orphan child from Cincinnati loved the scriptures and lived a live of gold-mine adventure in the Almost-Old West before winding up in a bomber-plane factory in Los Angeles, creating death-delivery systems for the permanent Cold War. Anxious over this atomic nightmare, yet optimistic enough to think humanity could survive it, Frank Antone Martin built an enormous concrete Jesus in his Inglewood driveway.

Such is the tale. Tune in to hear it all, the whole sordid thing. It’s Episode #110, soundscapes by RedBlueBlackSilver, snow on the western mountaintops.

#106: THE EIGHTH TOWER

Is it UFO season in the desert again? People have sure been seeing a lot of strange things up here around Joshua Tree, and “military flares” is never a good enough answer for all the odd activity in the skies.

Tonight we bring you a campfire story about a particular strange sight in the sky we experienced a few years ago, and as our special guest we have the interesting and engaging Michael Hacker, narrator of eight audiobooks by the late, great John Keel. This means we will be talking about the superspectrum and VALIS and The Eighth Tower.

#105: BETWIXT & BETWEEN

Desert Oracle Radio

In these last days of this cruel summer, as our wilderness burns and our institutions collapse around us, what we can we learn from the Other Life, the world of our pandemic dreams and universally traumatized collective consciousness?

Sometimes, there are signposts in the rubble of the ongoing disaster. Now is the time for Episode #105, “Betwixt and Between.”

#104 MESSAGE DELETED

ARIEL SCHOOL encounter

How are we doing out there? Pretty bad? Well nobody likes to hear “the ultraterrestrial entities told you so,” but, the ultraterrestrial entities told you so. It’s Episode #104, “MESSAGE DELETED.”

It was 27 years ago this month—at the Ariel School in Ruwa, Zimbabwe—that 62 students witnessed a miracle. Of the biblical variety. Several strange, wise entities appeared in their bizarre vessel at the edge of the playground, hovering over the brush the way the White Goddess and the Queen of the Universe and the Virgin of Guadalupe always appear, so often to the relatively pure eyes and hearts of the children.

And they had a message. We did not heed the message.

Strange new soundscapes from RedBlueBlackSilver tonight, a fitting musical environment for tonight’s tales of environmental terror.

#103: SECRETS OF THE SUPERSPECTRUM

Burrowed down through another Extreme Heat Event, we send this radio dispatch to you. The world has gone mad, why not join the fun? Join the revolution.

Well what happened is we were talking about all the desert creatures coming out of their holes at night—literally, the rabbit holes, in the case of our many Mojave cottontails and jackrabbits—and then all the sudden we went down the rabbit hole, too. At least it’s cooler down here!

John Keel, noted Fortean author, mentions in his book Operation Trojan Horse that you’ll find a lot of odd surnames amongst the UFO/mystic world, and few common names. So we did a little research and yep, it’s true. If you enjoy the program, please leave a short review! It really helps spread the word.

#102: DARK PSYCHIC FORCE

Dark Psychic Force Desert Oracle Radio

Remember last August, a year ago, when the national media found it very funny that presidential candidate Marianne Williamson mentioned the “dark psychic force” that had taken hold of America?

Well, here we are. We had better make the best of it. How are you surviving in our New Time? We will talk about some of the ways to make it through, from spiritual revelations to forming little communities with your friends and family. Lots of fine new soundscapes by RedBlueBlackSilver, too. It’s Episode #102.
