  • Conversation 20 - Airman Pat at Cannon AFB in the 70s

    Conversation 20 - Airman Pat at Cannon AFB in the 70s
    Jul 30 2023

    Released: 30 July 2023

    Duration: 54 Minutes 21 Seconds

    This is our first anonymous API Conversation, although we are using his real first name of our Witness. A former Air Force F111 technician tells us his story about a UFO encounter captured on RADAR at Cannon Air Force base in New Mexico in the mid 1970s, and what followed after that.

    If you served with Airman Pat at Cannon AFB in the mid 1970s, or if you were in Clovis, NM at that time, we’d like to hear your side of the story.

    Music by the Mini Vandals and Carl Goddeu.

  • Conversation 19 - Dr. Joan R. Bird

    Conversation 19 - Dr. Joan R. Bird
    Jun 25 2022
    Recorded: May 5, 2022 Duration: 1 hour 47 minutes Marsha Barnhart talks to Dr. Joan Bird, author of the book Montana UFOs and Extraterrestrials: Extraordinary Stories of Documented Sightings and Encounters. \ Dr. Bird is a Zoologist who specialized in animal behavior. She moved to Montana in 1973 to pursue graduate studies in zoology at the University of Montana, and in 1983 she completed her Ph.D. on inter-island variation in West Indian finches. Dr. Bird worked as a conservation biologist for the Montana Environmental Information Center, The Nature Conservancy, and Montana Department of Fish, Wildlife and Parks. She has also worked as a fire lookout in both Washington and Montana. Joan freelanced as a nature interpretation writer and has written numerous articles for scientific and conservation publications. Actively involved in women’s empowerment, she was a columnist for Crone Magazine. A lifelong student of unexplained phenomena and long-time member of the Institute of Noetic Sciences, she has worked as a community educator and change agent.  When Joan was a teenager, her mother had a near death experience. This engendered a lifelong interest in exploring paranormal and esoteric subjects. And, although steeped in scientific materialism from her academic training, Dr. Bird eventually began to study and attempt to understand the inexplicable. In this episode of API Conversations, Marsha and Dr. Bird discuss the contents of her book, Montana UFOs and Extraterrestrials, and delve into a host of related philosophies, concepts and theories regarding UFO’s, the ET Hypothesis, the Nature of Reality, the possibility of Past Lives and the value of Consciousness Studies.    Links Transcript of this Episode: https://docs.google.com/document/d/e/2PACX-1vRpBKZRw1Vsa6JDRKwHzyAuyS59xy-xWrSb2p9qIBf2GhfLsJOE0HIAK6OWqL_zF1szBNpgVah3-ef9/pub Dr. Joan R Bird, Montana UFOs and Extraterrestrials: https://www.amazon.com/Montana-UFOs-Extraterrestrials-Extraordinary-Documented/dp/1606390570 https://www.humanitiesmontana.org/programs/ufos-and-extraterrestrials-in-montana-with-joan-bird/ The Nick Mariana UFO Incident: https://commons.m.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Nick_Mariana_UFO_Footage_1950_Great_Falls_Montana.webm https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mariana_UFO_incident The Malmstrom AFB UFO Incident https://www.cufon.org/cufon/malmstrom/malm1.htm https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VgziDyPSUog http://documents.theblackvault.com/documents/ufos/malmstromufo.pdf ET 101 The Cosmic Instruction Manual: https://www.amazon.com/T-101-Instruction- There is a River, the Story of Edgar Cayce: https://www.amazon.com/Story-Edgar-Cayce-There- Passport to the Cosmos: https://www.amazon.com/Passport-Cosmos-Human-Transformation-Encounters/dp/0609805576 The More Beautiful World: https://www.amazon.com/Beautiful-Hearts-Possible-Sacred-Activism/dp/1583947248 Credits Producer and host: Marsha Barnhart Music credits: D.J.

  • Episode 18 - Orbs ‘a Plenty

    Episode 18 - Orbs ‘a Plenty
    Jul 26 2021

    Released: 26 July 2021

    Duration: 42 minutes, 41 seconds

    This episode of API Case Files covers three recent cases.

    Paul reports on a daylight sighting from the Isle of Man (Case 21-023) detailing how two men pursued three orbs until the lights disappeared. This encounter took place May 27th, 2021 and is especially provocative because a day before some else on the Island of Man saw and reported a single orb just like what our Witness saw.

    Two days before the Isle of Man sighting, a Witness in Brooklyn, NY shot footage of three self-illuminated orbs in a triangle configuration cruising up the East River towards Manhattan. Marsha interviewed the Witness in that case.

    Marsha also details a case from central Ohio of a mother and son who had a close encounter that so startled their senses they became sick to their stomachs for several hours afterwards.
