Paratopia Episode 36: Author/Reporter Jason Offutt

Author/Reporter Jason Offutt joins us on Paratopia for an entertaining, informative, and thorough discussion of a growing and misunderstood set of phenomena dubbed “Shadow JasonOffutt.jpgPeople.” Then, Jeff finally breaks his silence on the new direction his experiences have taken since a seemingly human man showed up in his home to talk about… well… we’re still bound to silence on the bulk of it, but what he can now share, he does. (This is an afterchat we tried having twice but were ultimately told not to.)

All of that and, honestly?–A WHOLE LOT MORE on this must-listen, game-changing Paratopia.

Paratopia Episode 29: Dr. Bruce Maccabee & The New Zealand UFO Case

In an episode dedicated to the late, great Richard Hall, Dr. Bruce Maccabee takes us to New Zealand to walk us through one of the best-documented UFO cases in history. Then he tells us what Richard Hall meant to him as he reminisces about their early days with NICAP.

“The real question is, Are the unexplained UFO reports describing some presently unrecognized phenomenon? And if so what is the nature and significance of the phenomenon? This cannot be answered by citing percentages and studying only known instances of ‘noise.’”

Richard Hall 1930-2009

Our thoughts, condolences and prayers are with Mr. Hall and his family.

Paratopia Episode 25: Marginality, Anti-Structure and the Paranormal with George Hansen

George Hansen returns to Paratopia for an in-depth look into marginality and anti-structure and it’s relationship to everything from UFOs to ghosts, and those who are involved in the paranormal. Join Jeff and Jeremy for a thought provoking and provocative discussion with George Hansen…this is one not to miss!

George P. Hansen was professionally employed in parapsychology laboratories for eight years—three at the Rhine Research Center in Durham, North Carolina, and five at Psychophysical Research Laboratories in Princeton, New Jersey.  His experiments included remote viewing, card guessing, ganzfeld, electronic random number generators, séance phenomena, and ghosts.  He has been active in a number of psychic, UFO, and New Age organizations, and he helped found a skeptics group.

His papers in scientific journals cover mathematical statistics, fraud and deception, the skeptics movement, conjurors in parapsychology, and exposés of hoaxes.  He is a member of the International Brotherhood of Magicians.

Visit George Hansen’s website for more information or to buy his book “The Trickster and the Paranormal”. You may also contact the author via his website.
