EPISODE #195: THE WAXING MOON: UFOs & THEIR PENTAGON PROPAGANDISTS

, ,

The United States military branches and intelligence agencies do not control what happens around the world all the time, much as they’d like to. Now is the time for EPISODE #195: THE WAXING MOON.

The things we call UFOs occur in the backwoods and on backroads, over the lonely desert playas and mountain lakes, eternally floating around the sacred springs and sacred groves and sacred mountains of every culture and continent, for as long as human beings have existed. If you want to see something supernatural, go somewhere quiet, put down your camera-phone, take out your earbuds, and tune in. ALSO: Some trouble with lemurs down in old San Antone, and the wonders of an 86% full moon on an August night in a high-desert small town.

EPISODE #194: WHERE THEY MADE THE BOMB

, ,

TRINITY TEST, New Mexico

If you want to cool off in this brutal desert summer, you need to get up someplace higher, around 7,000 feet up — the high-desert plateau around Los Alamos is real nice, at an elevation of 7,320 ft.

Lots of people have fallen in love with the climate and clean dry air up there, such as J. Robert Oppenheimer & Gore Vidal & William S. Burroughs. Burroughs was supposed to be a War Captain, following orders, but it never quite worked out that way. Instead, he would go to war with Human Language . . . using the weapon of the oppressor.

EPISODE #193: THE WITCH BEAT

, , ,

Tonight we are talking about witches. And interesting religions, new & old.

Happy Birthday to Us, by the way. This radio show went on the air six years ago, in mid-June of 2017. And here we are. Some of us, anyway.

Welcome to the American Desert, where we’ve got a “champagne climate” (nine months of brutal summer), David Hockney’s hidden Pearblossom Highway artworks, and wild gunfights in the streets of yore. But springtime is very lovely, if you can catch it. With new soundscapes by RedBlueBlackSilver.

EPISODE #189: THE HAUNTED HIGHWAY

There are no visitor facilities. Roads are mostly washed-out jeep tracks. There is no water. And there’s no way out, unless you come back the way you came in. The state line between Nevada and California is unmarked in the Mojave Wilderness, so it’s up to you to know what’s legal or not. Do not make a mistake.

EPISODE #188: THRU-HIKING WITH TAHQUITZ

, , ,

Where is she, tonight? It has been a month and ten days since she mailed this postcard from Idyllwild to Joshua Tree. All we can do is hope that the monster did not put an early end to her Pacific Crest Trail adventure, as so often happens in those movies with Reese Witherspoon. Because there’s a real monster in the mountains around San Jacinto Peak, a real monster who murders people & eats their souls for dessert. It is called the Tahquitz.
