   The Most Hated Man in Ufology w/ Martin Cannon

   Even amongst heterodox researchers there can develop a kind of orthodoxy. Supposed free thinkers who subscribe to their own brand of groupthink. This becomes readily apparent to anyone who spends enough time in a conspiracy community. Go against their common wisdom and suddenly you’re a disinformation agent, a CIA asset, or, worst of all, a skeptic. My guest for this episode has been labeled all of those things and more during his time as a Fortean researcher and writer on the subject of UFOs. Martin Cannon joins me to talk about his controversial career, death threats from publishers, and his new book investigating Marian apparitions. Martin has a personal Substack named Strange Tales (https://substack.com/profile/103975666-strange-tales). He also just self-published Mysterialis: Untold Stores of Apparitions (https://www.amazon.com/Mysterialis-Stories-Apparitions-Miracles-Madness/dp/B0HGDG13JL/ref=sr_1_1?crid=R6EC0LQ493GA&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.aKdwgKE1m8cT1orraL_s0bKWFeVI7UxEHz56QSWSfiuwNtjCV-58shMUPZ3Ek5cBMn05YjNgglQKuCMTz8JDFA5KuN8WU7Y1oFQwWQnNMfOm65_qrdBYK8kZKezdyRlSs6Jo1VN1rtLbIvbP9IsIYNB_-FQY11ObrgvVE7E-rTDq1Ys-Van97BHQevXH9Sz2dYt8vskzvmfeApgJPUvUTHFnOuDVXgCBZD5zFVFOnj0.CZRrwQket47jWgr7sgFikfm9lLpYFx9RMx7V3vujss0&dib_tag=se&keywords=mysterialis&qid=1793879451&sprefix=mysterialis%2Caps%2C137&sr=8-1), Miracles, and Madness (https://www.amazon.com/Mysterialis-Stories-Apparitions-Miracles-Madness/dp/B0HGDG13JL/ref=sr_1_1?crid=R6EC0LQ493GA&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.aKdwgKE1m8cT1orraL_s0bKWFeVI7UxEHz56QSWSfiuwNtjCV-58shMUPZ3Ek5cBMn05YjNgglQKuCMTz8JDFA5KuN8WU7Y1oFQwWQnNMfOm65_qrdBYK8kZKezdyRlSs6Jo1VN1rtLbIvbP9IsIYNB_-FQY11ObrgvVE7E-rTDq1Ys-Van97BHQevXH9Sz2dYt8vskzvmfeApgJPUvUTHFnOuDVXgCBZD5zFVFOnj0.CZRrwQket47jWgr7sgFikfm9lLpYFx9RMx7V3vujss0&dib_tag=se&keywords=mysterialis&qid=1793879451&sprefix=mysterialis%2Caps%2C137&sr=8-1).

   The Sus Files: Jose Chung’s From Outer Space w/ Tanner Boyle and Bradley Plaisier

   Paid subscribers gain early access to this episode. It goes live for everyone else on other podcast platforms on October 30th. Halloween comes early as I kick off a new recurring series for the pod with two UFO researchers. On September 10, 1993, The X-Files premiered on the Fox Network, exposing millions of Americans for the first time to a shadow world of government agents, secretive cabals, and labyrinth-like conspiracies. The date of the show’s premiere, in fact, would obtain greater significance, and lend credence to some of its more conspiratorial plot lines, years later, when on September 11, 2001, one day after its eighth anniversary, two jet airliners were hijacked and flown into the World Trade Center. What was odd is that the show’s creators seemingly predicted the attack months earlier, during an episode of series spinoff The Lonegunmen, when they scripted an identical attack on the World Trade Center with a remote-controlled airplane. Moments like this seem to happen with an alarming regularity for The X-Files. In 2016, during its first revival, an episode dealt with a virus that targets the immune system. The spread of the virus quickly overwhelms hospitals, resulting in a public panic that can only be stopped with the creation of a special vaccine. Sounds familiar, doesn’t it? Researchers Tanner F. Boyle (https://substack.com/profile/245271803-tanner-f-boyle) and Bradley Plaiser join me to see if the truth really is out there. You can follow Tanner at @tannerfboyle1 (https://x.com/TannerFBoyle1) and Bradley at @bpleasies (https://x.com/bpleasies)on X. Tanner is on Blusky at @tannerfboyle.bsky.social (https://bsky.app/profile/tannerfboyle.bsky.social).

   BCCI: The Bank of Clark Clifford International

   Author Devin Thomas O'Shea (https://substack.com/profile/1441504-devin-thomas-oshea) hops on the pod to talk about his new book, The Veiled Prophet: Secret Societies, White Supremacy, and the Struggle for St. Louis (https://www.haymarketbooks.org/books/2770-the-veiled-prophet), which details some of the exploits of Washington fixer Clark Clifford.Like so many powerful men, Clifford found his way to the world of politics through his connections. After joining the Veiled Prophet Society, a notorious secret society for St. Louis elites, he got a commission in the Navy, and was assigned as a military aide to President Harry Truman. He leveraged his position in the White House to build a career as a power broker spanning decades. Devin helps me unravel how a seemingly inauspicious beginning led to a life of high finance and low morals. You can follow Devin at @devintohsea (https://x.com/devintoshea) on X, @devintoshea.bsky.social (https://bsky.app/profile/devintoshea.bsky.social) on Bluesky, and @devintoshea (https://www.instagram.com/devintoshea/) on Instagram.
