This is a bit of a sequel to our 2020 episode about Greta Woodrew, (Why do Birdlike Aliens Suddenly Appear?)and focuses on some newly available issues of her Woodrew Update newsletter from the 1980s. From Earth Changes to prepper-behavior, to the (not so) subtle bragging on her genius children, these newsletters provided an interesting window into a woman who was one of the most atypical contactees out there.

The Alien Abduction Survival Guide by Michelle LaVigne is... not entirely what it sounds like. While there are several tips for coping with one's abduction experiences, the most interesting aspect of the book is the manner in which the author positions herself within the shared experiences of humans and their alien mentors.

Recounting a contactee tale that took place in 1955, Oscar F. Knight's booklet "The Wolverton Trail Event" is a unique story that exudes sincerity. Regardless of the saucer content, this is fascinating account!

In this episode, I asked myself some questions that I’ve always wanted the answers to. Well, at least my answers on this particular day. These answer may change in the future. What’s the deal with Roswell? Least favorite episode of my own podcast? Favorite UFO book? Believe me when I say that I wasn’t sure how I’d answer when I asked myself!

As we wrap up our deep dive into the third issue of (California) UFO Magazine, we find ourselves knee-deep in tales of UFO talk at the Whole Life Expo. Then, we're off to the wilderness where we make contact with the elusive families of Space Sasquatches.

Next, we take a philosophical detour with a mind-bending column by the one and only Terrence McKenna. And then, drumroll, please, we look at a review of Strieber's "Communion". which at the time was so fresh off the presses, you could practically smell the ink. And finally, we explore the dolphin-alien connection, complete with dolphin channelling.

It’s back to the early days of UFO Magazine or (California UFO Magazine) for a fairly lighthearted romp through a publication that did its best to provide insight into all aspects of the UFO culture of the time, much to the chagrin of the buttoned-up nuts-and-bolts time. That tension, between “scientific” and “new age” approaches is very much apparent in this issue!

In fact, there’s so much good stuff in here, that we’ll be finishing it up on the next episode!  The documentary mentioned—_UFOs and Channelling—_can be found on Youtube:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fy92Xz6jyI4
