    Guest Suggestions for The Paracast

    I don't really have a guest suggestion but rather a show suggestion. I think Gene and Chris should do a "off-topic" episode where they discuss a lot of the topics that they allude to in the show.

    The Messengers: Ask Mike Clelland

    First of all I would like to say that the guests that have been on recently, have been amazing... keep it up Paracast!!! From listening to Mike's podcast, I always got the impression that he leaned more to the "love and light" interpretation of the phenomena. I think his views are actually more...

    What's your favorite 1980's sci-fi movie?

    Strange Invaders (1983) It is by no means a masterpiece but a lot of fun. If you like B-movies then you will love it. Basically aliens take over a town with the governments complicity.

    Hallucinations in the general population may be more common than previously thought

    What we don’t really have is a framework for evaluating the various claims. What exists now is a jumble of anecdotal evidence combined with various opinions. No methodical filters... that's the problem.

    Hallucinations in the general population may be more common than previously thought

    I believe that some UFO experiences are genuine and that there is a core phenomena at work here. However I disagree that it is reasonable to think that some of these single witness claims are genuine. This is especially problematic if hallucinations are more common than originally thought. At...

    Ask Stanton T. Friedman

    1. Since Stan is a nuclear physicist I was wondering what he thought of Dr. John Brandenburg's "Mars was nuked" hypothesis? Specifically I wonder what he thinks of the idea that the elevated levels of Xenon in the Mars atmosphere can only be explained by a nuclear bomb. 2. Does Stan give any...

    Movie night recomendations

    I knew that I came to the right place. I can't wait to watch these. Keep them coming.... I was reading about Phase IV on Wikipedia and noticed this: "This is the first film to depict a geometric crop circle, in this case created by super-intelligent ants. The film predates by two years the...

    Hosted on a Mac

    Nice !!! It would be interesting to see what the minimum viable server is. Could you host it on a RasberryPi? Although I'm sure you don't want to experiment with that : )

    Hosted on a Mac

    Are forums also hosted on the Mac mini? It makes sense that the Mac mini would be per-formant as the pages are mostly static. The forum might be a little more taxing as there is slightly more processing going on. Also remember that the i7 and the Xeon are pretty much equivalent (assuming same...
