You can buy tickets (likely standing room!) cash at the door, too.

#051: I KNOW WHAT I SAW

UFOs
10 p.m. on your High-Desert radio, Z 107.7 FM, it’s a new episode of Desert Oracle Radio and we are going to deal with this alleged “UFO Religion.” What light? Get the podcast wherever you like but it’s on the radio first tonight, best heard on whatever cheap old radio you’ve got. Like the one in your car, or that shed you never go inside, because of what happened.

Three eerie new tracks by RedBlueBlackSilver tonight. Many modern problems are addressed.

#050 SUPERBLOOM!

The wildflower superbloom is upon us, as is the superbloom mob. St. Minerva help us all!

New soundscapes by RedBlueBlackSilver. And information about the weird event on Saturday, April 27, is here at RedBlueBlackSilver.com.

And thanks for taking us along on your desert travels, Tara K. Shepersky:

#049: DOWN AT THE OLD SCHOOLHOUSE


Due to the government-shutdown emergency, your host was compelled to entertain an audience at the Old Schoolhouse Museum in Twentynine Palms with a series of Strange & Unusual Facts about our desert lands. Listen on IHeartRadio or Spotify or iTunes. Subscribe if you like it. And if you really like it, leave a review.

This was our final event on the Desert Oracle Performance Schedule. Thanks to everybody who came out to all of our events and live shows and Campfire Stories!

#048: HOLY RANGERS

Who will protect the wilderness and public lands, our national parks and monuments, our nature preserves and conservation areas, our wild rivers and mountains and forests? As the nation slips into chaos and decline, we are going to have to take over the stewardship of lands and preserves that will have to survive not just this government but all future governments, of whatever sort.

Listen with your favorite podcast service, maybe Spotify? Maybe iTunes? Listen live on KCDZ 107.7 FM in Joshua Tree and across the Mojave High Desert—from Amboy to Zzyzx. In fact you are going to hear a very raw & early edit of this program on the radio, because we weren’t quite done by the time it was due at the station this afternoon. Pounding on the table with fists and the whole thing, what’s wrong with us.

New good stuff from RedBlueBlackSilver, go take a listen to all his great instrumental and ambient music.

#046: TRAVEL OPTIONS FOR THE COLLAPSE


What happens when a civilization collapses? You can’t go camping in Joshua Tree, that’s what. The national parks are overrun with cretins of both varieties: the willful & the dumb. Well, maybe there’s somewhere else to go, somewhere without ticket booths and reserved campgrounds. Yes we are going to Mojave Trails National Monument and that means Route 66 and the alphabet-railroad towns.

#045: SHUTDOWNS & DATE SHAKES


What a nice holiday present for the High Desert, having the federal government collapse and leaving the Mojave’s national parks unstaffed and abandoned at the busiest time of year. Katherine Spiers, Los Angeles food writer/editor/podcast host, joins us to talk about date shakes. Get our podcast wherever you get the podcasts.
