  • Summary

  • It all started 20 plus years ago, driving home from working a swing shift. I turned on the radio and heard a voice that was electric. It happened during the middle of the segment when the topic was about UFO’s. Next thing I know I’m home. I was pulled into the conversation that I felt like I was with the host and the guest hanging around the water cooler. I would tune into the show nightly until I was moved from swing shift. After that I would tune in from time to time. When Art Bell left the show. Some of the host's fill in were just not the same. Art Bell was able to ask the questions without feeling like he was leaning in any direction. After the Art Bell chapter closed on the show, I would still tune in from time to time. Was it Art or was it the show brand that I loved so much?Fast forward 2020 I was hosting a radio weekend shift at the heritage station in Seattle from 6am to 12pm, When we got rocked with the pandemic I was asked to take a leave from my on air hosting duties till further notice. That's when I came up with the idea to continue with a podcast. My goal was to interview local people and restaurants with a goal to find an amazing place to get good eats. After a couple podcasts during some of the taping it would somehow turn to the paranormal topic. It would spark my interest in what others could learn. It was during an interview with Robert Lang from Lang Studio chatted about the ghosts that sparked me to make the change and rename the show U.S. Phenomenon.

    Apr 11 2024

    As the haunting notes of Nirvana's "Come as You Are" still echo in the hearts of many, we traverse the poignant landscape of Kurt Cobain's enduring influence, marking three decades since his untimely departure. The grunge movement, birthed in the Pacific Northwest, served as a canvas for Cobain's raw and uncensored portrayal of a generation's angst and desires, resonating deeply with my own journey through those transformative years. We invite you to join us in a collective reflection, sharing tales of how a single chord can be a call to arms, a solace in solitude, and a bridge connecting disparate souls.

    Wander with me through the hallowed grounds of Disneyland, as we uncover the spectral whispers that animate the corners of the Happiest Place on Earth. Be it Walt Disney's lingering presence or the Haunted Mansion's otherworldly inhabitants, these tales are a testament to the park's ability to enchant us in the most unexpected ways. Your stories of ghostly encounters and camping escapades further illuminate the tapestry woven from the threads of joy, adventure, and mystery that accompany every visit to Disneyland or a night under the stars.

    As we draw the curtains on this episode, we embrace the emotional candor of Frances Bean Cobain, whose words offer a window into the bittersweet symphony of growing up in the shadow of a legend. With an eye towards the horizon, we tease the unveiling of new collaborations and a dive into Bigfoot conference archives that promise to unlock fresh curiosities. From the enigmatic to the existential, these conversations are an ode to the seekers, the dreamers, and the storytellers who find solace in the skies and the stories etched into our collective consciousness.
