To ring in the Gnome Year, we begin to answer some questions posed by listeners of the program. This involves catching up by talking about the Montauk Project, CIA magicians, the Canadian tucker convoy, and COVID-19, but we eventually get to two inquiries on our docket: We are joined by the incredible Wendy Painting, PhD (the talented author of a book everyone needs to read: Aberration in the Heartland of the Real) who asks us about David Paulides’ Missing 411 cruise and sticks around before her phone goes kaput. Then another listener makes us bear all and relay our personal experiences with the paranormal.
