This episode will be posted Monday afternoon/evening.

THIS WEEK: Philip Spencer, The Wildman of Kentucky: Mystery of Panther Rock, www.philipspencer.net

BoA:Audio takes a journey into the strange world of Kentucky's Anderson County, also known as the "Frazier Land," with researcher Philip Spencer. Philip will detail some of the many bizarre sightings and events in the Anderson County area, notably the hotbed of activity around the site known as "Panther Rock." We'll find out about reports of Bigfoot in the area (including Philip's own sighting), learn about the odd "Frazier Mud Track," ponder if there is a paranormal element at work in the area (ala Skinwalker Ranch), hear the "Frazier Howl," discuss stories of "wolfman" and big cat sightings, get Philip's take on the "kill v. no kill" debate in Bigfoot research, and tons more.

It's an episode that shines a spotlight on the paranormal hotbed that is Anderson County, Kentucky, with Philip Spencer, a man who was born and raised in the Frazier Land.

NEXT WEEK: The 3rd Annual BoA:Audio Baseball Special featuring Richard Dolan, Paul Kimball, Loren Coleman, and other special guests.

For the third year in a row, the stars of esoterica step away from UFOs, Bigfoot, and ghosts and, instead, let their hair down for some discussion on the world of baseball. Tapings for the special are ongoing right now, but so far we can tease that esteemed UFO historian Richard Dolan will be talking about his beloved NY Yankees, their new stadium, their off-season signings, the A-Rod steroid scandal, whether Joba Chamberlain should be a starter or a reliever, and the rise of the Tampa Bay Rays. Additionally, Paul Kimball will talk about the World Baseball Classic, why he is a huge fan of the concept, and how he sees it as a model for the future of Major League Baseball.

And, much like last year, all of our guests (and binnall) will share their predictions for the 2009 MLB season.

You can be a part of our 2009 MLB Predictions contest and match wits against the esoteric stars of the BoA:Audio Baseball Special by joining up @ the official BoA forum theusofe.com and posting your picks in the official thread for this year's contest.

3.22.9: Andrew Barnes & Paul Taitt on BoA:Audio :: Preview


This episode will be posted Monday night.

THIS WEEK: Andrew Barnes & Paul Taitt, Your Worst Nightmare -- Sleep Paralysis & Supernatural Assault, soulsmack.com

It's another BoA:Audio dual-guest interview, as we welcome Andrew Barnes & Paul Taitt, creators of the film Your Worst Nightmare which details the sleep paralysis and supernatural assault phenomena. The duo will explain just what these incidents are, how one seems to lead to the other, what "experiencers" of the phenomenon say happens when they are attacked, has anyone tried to communicate with the attacking entities, what proof do we have that these things are real, what the clergy says about it, how the phenomenon has been erased from the Western world, shadow entitites, OBEs, the Cambodian connection, the "God Helmet," and a bizarre moment of technical difficulties that will either make you laugh or spook you out.

It's a highly entertaining edition of BoA:Audio that covers a ton of ground in an otherwise fringe genre of esoterica: sleep paralysis & supernatural assault.

THIS WEEK: Adam Gorightly, James Shelby Downard's Mystical War, gorightly.wordpress.com

This episode will be posted Monday evening.

THIS WEEK: Ann Druffel (Part 3 of 3), Firestorm: Dr. James E. McDonald's Fight for UFO Science, www.anndruffel.com

We wrap up our Ann Druffel "miniseries" with the second half of our discussion on Firestorm: Dr. James E. McDonald's Fight for UFO Science. We'll be covering McDonald's goals for a national UFO monitoring system, the unspoken pressure on McDonald to provide a UFO "breakthrough," how much Hynek may have known about other government agencies investigating UFOs, the Condon Report, in-depth, including the "Low memo" and how McDonald was responsible for that document getting widely released, the reaction of Ufology to the Condon Report and if Ann thinks the UFO field was permanently damaged by the series of events that befell it in the late '60s / early '70's.

We'll also examine the folding of NICAP, and the events that led up to McDonald's death, beginning with his clandestine meeting with "top government officials," the SST Congressional hearings which saw McDonald publicly ridiculed by a Congressman, family issues that plagued McDonald towards the end of his life, and his subsequent suicide and Ann's thoughts on what may have been behind it and the result of McDonald's mysterious death on other scientists who may have been interested in UFOs. Plus, much more in this comprehensive interview.
