6 Degrees of John Keel

Stephanie Quick returns to the podcast with Barbara and Kendra to talk about a series of synchronicities she had involving Sasquatch sexuality. It starts with a scholarly paper, believe it or not, and goes from there. Adult themes are present in this episode, since we are talking about sex, and there are words like breasts, penis and erection present in the discussion.

Fiction author, podcaster, musician and experiencer Phil Rossi of the "Don't Turn Around" podcast comes on the show to talk about his experiences with the paranormal with all three hosts, and lots of supernatural fun ensues.

Author Joshua Cutchin joins all three hosts to discuss the possibility that the "gray aliens" popularly associated with UFOs might be hungry ghosts, which are a concept from Buddhist traditions.

Woodsman and researcher Chad Redding of The Strange Familiars Podcast talks with Barbara and Morganna about meeting the Other out in the wilderness.

Author, Jungian Therapist and Ritualist Andy Mercer joins hosts Morganna and Barbara and talks about the contact of non-human intelligences through the historically ancient yet thoroughly modern method of ritual magic.

Author Greg Bishop joins all three hosts to discuss the recent UFO disclosure by the Pentagon. Conspiracies, truths, untruths and ideas about science and the removal of the social stigma surrounding UFOs are exchanged, then the discussion turns towards art. Yes, art. And then back to UFO's with Dr. Jacques Vallee's newest book.

Kendra and Barbara are joined by author and investigator Brent Raynes for a look at his introduction to Keel's concepts of "window areas," where a variety of high strangeness events occur repeatedly over time. Inspired by his correspondence with Keel, Brent investigated several window areas over the years, and has many stories to tell.

Morganna and Barbara welcome Dr. C. S. Matthews, author of Mysterious Beauty: Living With The Paranormal in the Hudson Valley, also known as Professor WHAM, and the trio discuss the similarities and differences between the Athens Ohio and Hudson River Valley window areas. There is a great emphasis placed on Native American knowledge, history and lore in this episode.

Kendra and Barbara welcome noted Near Death Experience researcher Barbara Mango back to the podcast. She and Kendra discuss how their experiences of sitting with parents while they are in the process of dying has affected them and has led both of them to an interest in working for more widely available compassionate end of life care.

Morganna and Barbara welcome Shamanic Practitioner and teacher Bekki Shining Bearheart, who's spent much of her life in Athens, to talk about contacting and communing with the spirits of place. As always, the conversation takes a few turns and twists, but it all comes back around in the end.

Kendra and Barbara talk about their 1994 graduation party in Athens, and how some uninvited guests arrived and everything took a turn for the weird. A cautionary tale about the Good Folk, and what happens if you forget to honor Them with libations.

Morganna and Barbara greet and talk with author and expert on fairy folklore, Morgan Daimler. They talk about the old fairy beliefs and modern pop culture understandings of The Good Folk. Fact, fiction, and personal experience blend into a grand, meandering, pixy-led conversation.

Morganna and Barbara welcome Anthropologist, author and instructor at the University of Wales Trinity St. David, Dr. Jack Hunter. They start off discussing his most recent book, "Manifesting Spirits: An Anthropological Study of Mediumship and the Paranormal," but very quickly the topic broadens out into a discussion of how high strangeness becomes domesticated once it becomes part of an establishe...

Author, Magical Practitioner, Activist and Speaker, Michael M. Hughes joins all three hosts (Kendra's back!) to talk about all facets of growing up weird, synchronicities, signs and portents, the UFO phenomena, and magical practice.

Join Morganna and Barbara as they explore extraordinary experiences in non-local consciousness with experiencer, author and NDE researcher, Barbara Mango.

Author, biologist and experiencer Lynn Miller talks about her experiences travelling out of body and how it has affected her viewpoint and her life.

Author and experiencer Susan Demeter shares how a UFO sighting served as an initiatory experience in her journey as a Cosmic Witch. She and Barbara talk all about large and small anomalous lights, the spirits of place and how they differ around the world, the practice of changing reality through the use of magic, the creation of tulpas, and as always, there are many books to discuss--both inspirat...

Barbara and Morganna talk with Athens County resident Ali. Trained in Anthropology, Ali's family has been in Athens since the early 19th century and when she came back, she found herself at home and her second sight blossoming.

In this episode, Barbara and Morganna are joined by author, artist, poet, experiencer and tarot reader, Regan Lee to talk about how her many UFO and entity experiences have defined her creative life.

Our hosts discuss the mechanics of human vision, art and how those relate to UFO's, but the conversation ranges far afield. As Greg says, "Everything should be off topic," and so no one should be surprised that food, cooking, family stories, books and cattle mutilations are touched upon as we galumph along.

Barbara and Morganna talk with Geraldine Sutton Stith, daughter and granddaughter of primary witnesses to the case of the Kelly-Hopkinsville Goblins case of 1955, a classic early UFOnaut encounter.

Stephanie Quick joins our hosts for a dive into women in the paranormal field past and present, with discussion of misogyny then and now. If discussion of female anatomy bothers you, maybe you should pass on this episode.

In celebration of John Keel's Birthday on March 25th, the hosts of the 6 Degrees of John Keel podcast team up with authors, thinkers and podcasters to talk about what made Keel special and his impact on the paranormal field.

Joshua Cutchin carries on a freeform, wide-ranging discussion with hosts Barbara and Morganna. It starts with modern fairy-lore base fiction books, dances on through Bigfoot, modern trickster figures, the Wild Hunt, Wendigo, pareidolia, dreams, and then lands feet first into the realm of the soul, the afterlife and death.

Morganna and Barbara talk to a long-time Athens Ohio resident, Jazz, who has experienced hauntings, shadow people and other strangeness in this exceedingly odd small college town.
