The Paracast

Gene and Randall present researcher and author Tim Swartz, who will talk to us about the latest scuttlebutt in the UFO field, including the first report from the Pentagon UAP Task Force, and provide remembrances of the late Tim “Mr. UFO” Beckley, with whom he worked closely for many years. Tim is an Indiana native and Emmy-Award winning television producer/videographer. He is also the author of a number of popular books including “The Lost Journals of Nikola Tesla,” “America’s Strange and Supernatural History,” and “Time Travel: Fact Not Fiction!” Tim is also the writer and editor of the online newsletter Conspiracy Journal; a free, weekly e-mail newsletter, considered essential reading by paranormal researchers worldwide.

UFO researcher and historian Curt Collins returns to talk about the implications of the Pentagon UAP Task Force’s “waffling” report that, according to published reports, neither confirmed nor denied an ET origin for the phenomenon. In 2015 Curt was on the investigative team, the Roswell Slides Research Group, which exposed the BeWitness alien photo fiasco. More recently, he launched The Saucers That Time Forgot with Claude Falkstrom, focused on unearthing “tales that UFO history has overlooked or would rather forget.” Curt lives in the southern United States, near Jackson, Mississippi.

Gene and Randall present the return of Gary Voorhis Jr., a firsthand witness to part of the the U.S.S. Nimitz “tic-tac” UFO events during the week of the 14th of November 2004. He was a fire controlman and Aegis Computer/ CEC technician onboard the U.S.S. Princeton. In addition to recounting his experience and background, he provides fascinating insights into the modern sightings that even the U.S. government acknowledges as something real. There will also be comments about the early reports of the work of the Pentagon UAP Task Force and whether it helps fulfill hopes for disclosure. Gary is President and Co-Founder of UAPx.

Author and researcher Preston Dennett joins Gene and Randall to discuss his latest book, “Wondrous: 25 True UFO Encounters.” He’ll report more incredible cases involving possible UFO contact and offer his views on whether the Pentagon UAP Task Force really means potential disclosure, at long last. Preston remains a field investigator for the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON), a ghost hunter, a paranormal researcher, and the author of more than two dozen books and more than 100 articles about UFOs and the paranormal. An avowed advocate of the extraterrestrial theory for UFOs, Preston asks: Who are they visiting our planet? What is their agenda? Are they friendly or hostile?

Gene and Randall present Jonathan Lace, the Public Relations Officer for the Scientific Coalition for UAP Studies (SCU). As expectations rise over what the Pentagon will reveal to the U.S. Congress about its UAP investigation in June, we will focus on the state of UFO research, and the hopes that disclosure may be imminent. This interview will also focus on key sightings that ther SCU has investigated. Jonathan served in the United States Air Force as a Computer Systems Operator at the United States Strategic Command. For the last 14 years he has taught at Seton Hall Preparatory School, where he is currently Chair of Computer Science & Technology. His interest in the UFO phenomenon stems from his early interest in aeronautics and the space program.

Very prolific author Nick Redfern returns to The Paracast. He’ll discuss the ongoing expectations for UFO disclosure in light of the Pentagon UAP Task Force and the positive statements about the phenomenon from present and former government people. Nick will also talk about his latest book, as of this episode, “Diary of Secrets: UFO Conspiracies & the Mysterious Death of Marilyn Monroe,” described as a deep look into the claims that she may have been murdered for what she knew about UFOs, aliens, Area 51 and more. This is a story that has circulated since the 1990s. However, Nick has uncovered enough material to write a full-length book on the subject. Nick calls it “”A big story!” Cold-hearted murders made to look like suicides and accidents. He is the author of more than 60 books. He’s been featured on a number of radio and TV shows, and is a frequent guest on The Paracast.

Gene and Randall present author A.R. Roberts, author of “From Adam to Omega: An Anatomy Of UFO Phenomena.” A second edition, this body/mind/spirit book offers updated information about UFO phenomena, documenting past, present, and previously unknown data. The summary of hundreds of books of major thought leaders in the field are intricately woven into his work. Even the Bible plays a major role in establishing credibility to all of the working theories presented. Allen R. Roberts was a musician in the 1960’s and traveled the country with different groups, one of which appeared on the Ed Sullivan Show in December, 1964. He later worked in the hotel industry before opening a photography studio. He became interested in UFO phenomena in 1954 while serving as a volunteer in the Ground Observer Corps. Roberts is now semi-retired and lives in Florida.

Gene and Randall present a UFO reality check with author and researcher Kevin D. Randle. Kevin will provide a update on what he expects may or may not come from the Pentagon UAP Task Force, which was supposed to deliver a report on its investigations in June 2021. Kevin is considered the foremost living expert on the Roswell incident. is the author of of such books as “Project Moondust,” Conspiracy of Silence,” “A History of UFO Crashes” “Roswell in the 21st Century, and “UFOs and the Deep State: A History of the Military and Shadow Government’s War Against the Truth.” He also served in the United States Army during both the Vietnam War and the Second Gulf War. After the 9/11 attacks on the World Trade Center, Randle joined the Iowa National Guard as an intelligence officer. He retired from the Iowa National Guard as a lieutenant colonel in 2009.
