#056: SNAKESGIVING DAY WEEKEND


Snakesgiving is the holiday so nice, we celebrate it twice. Once when they come out, once when they go back in the ground.

“The snake giveth, the snake taketh away.”—Elozah 6:16.

Some grooving new spooky soundscapes from You Know Who: RedBlueBlackSilver. And Brendan Maze returns to talk about his backup plan, now that it looks like the evil Cadiz Desert-Killing Scheme is “dead in the water.” Want to read our pocket-sized field guide you hear so much about these days, from those certain people? Well just click here and subscribe, or buy whatever back issues we have left. Want to subscribe to our podcast of our KCDZ FM broadcast? So very easy, and entirely free! iTunes or Stitcher or Spotify or etc.

#055: THE GOOFBALL FACTOR

Every weird story that you almost want to believe is required, by cosmic law, to have a Goofball Factor. What is the Goofball Factor? And how does it end up on the front page of the New York Times?

New episode tonight, 10 p.m. on KCDZ 107.7 FM in Joshua Tree, with (mostly) new sounds from RedBlueBlackSilver, plus this weird goblin recording we got off the radio driving through the Owens Valley a few years ago.

Don’t forget the UFO SOCIAL CLUB at the airport bar (on the airstrip in Yucca Valley), Thursday 5/16 at 7 or so. Maybe 8. It’s not a performance. You will have to entertain yourself. Which is the best way to get it done. And yes we are busily mailing out subscriber copies of ISSUE #8. Order a subscription if you don’t already have one. Or pick up a copy at your favorite Hi-Dez shop. It’s our “revenue stream.” (Sometimes.)

Subscribe to the podcast wherever you get ’em: iTunes or Stitcher or Spotify or etc. And did you know we are on Instagram for some reason? (The reason is crass self-promotion.)

#054: EARTH DAY’S HIPPIE KILLER + THE APOSTLE OF THE CACTI

Let’s tell some Campfire Stories, shall we? How about an Earth Day murder story? Listen on the radio, 10PM in the High Desert Z107.7FM. Are the Orcs on the way?

Subscribe to the podcast wherever you get ’em: iTunes or Stitcher or Spotify or etc. And did you know we are, despite our better judgment, take part in the Instagram situation? We do.

#053: REDACTED (BY THE ALIENS)


10 p.m. tonight, Z 107.7 FM, it’s a new episode all about the conspiracies. We speak with Anna Merlan about her new book, REPUBLIC OF LIES. There was apparently a “UFO social club” in the High Desert, too, and we have the proof. Unless it has been redacted. (And why was Jeremy Corbell phoning in??)

#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!

#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.
