Ashtar Watches Over Us

The Saucer Life ·

2017/12/11

In this Encounter, we’ll take a look at the the entity known as Ashtar and the cast of extraterrestrial characters that he commands. From his emergence through the writings and teachings of George van Tassel, the development of the Ashtar “brand” to the concept’s evolution during the following decades, this is a fun jaunt through […]

A Good Old Fashioned Ether Frolic

The Saucer Life ·

2017/12/04

Welcome to series 3, in which we’ll focus on the broad themes of mind, body, and spirit. It’s “mind” this week with Meade Layne, Mark Probert, channeled messages about the Etherians, and a story of some early, somewhat different interpretations of the coming of the saucers. Guest starring the spirits of Lao Tzu and Thomas […]

And then the Feds Showed Up…

The Saucer Life ·

2017/11/27

It’s the Series 2 finale! We’re digging deeper into an entity we saw briefly in Encounter 204:the Detroit Flying Saucer Club. We’ll see one example of “government interest in flying saucers” and why it really was never about the saucers, in some cases. We also look at a useful illustration about the way one story can connect […]

Bonus Encounter 2: I Spoke with an Earth-Man!

The Saucer Life ·

2017/11/22

A quickie that got left on the cutting room floor from Encounter 203 and Encounter 204. It’s a Contactee story in reverse from the pages of Nexus and you’ll probably recognize at least one of the characters. And yes, Melvin Morbid sounds like Johnny from The Room. It was totally unconscious. Have a good Thanksgiving if you’re in […]

Airships over America

The Saucer Life ·

2017/11/20

This week it’s some Flying Saucer pre-history with the Mystery Airship Wave of 1897. There was a bit of this in the talk released here as Bonus Encounter 1, but we’ve got even more aerial weirdness this week. Thanks again to CUFOS for their vast archive of historical UFO goodness. You can find out more about […]

The Zine Scene, 1954 (Part Two)

The Saucer Life ·

2017/11/13

This week, we conclude our epic look at 1954 through four flying saucer zines and newsletters (The APRO Bulletin, Saucerian, Nexus, and Vimana). As last week, much thanks to the online archive of the Center for UFO Studies, for having such a wealth of great information.

The Zine Scene, 1954 (Part One)

The Saucer Life ·

2017/11/06

This week we start our look at 1954 through the pages of four flying saucer newsletters and magazines. While this wasn’t the biggest year for sightings in the US, there was no lack of news or controversy. The Al Bender mystery (see Encounter 102), the growing popularity of contactees (see Encounters 105 and 106), and […]

The Saucer (Love) Life

The Saucer Life ·

2017/10/30

Romance and flying saucers certainly aren’t an unheard-of pairing (check out Encounter 106 if you doubt me) but few interplanetary romances were as intense or interesting as that of South Africa’s Elizabeth Klarer in the 1950s (although she didn’t write her book Beyond the Light Barrier until much later. This week, we’ll be looking at Klarer’s story […]

Will the real OH KRILL Please Stand Up?

The Saucer Life ·

2017/10/23

Welcome to Series 2! In this encounter we travel to the heady days of the 1980s and look at a number of documents, events, and people who would have a lasting effect on the direction of saucer culture. Meet O.H. Krill and his pals John Lear, and Bill Cooper, and learn just why it was […]

“This Queen of Women was the Lady Captain!”

The Saucer Life ·

2017/10/09

One week ahead of schedule–don’t get used to it! This week we meet Truman Bethurum, who was the second contactee and who met a stunning space sister, Captain Aura Rhanes. His story is interesting not only because it features a woman in an authoritative position, but because he sort of seems to have written it to make […]

They Met the Space Brothers (and Sisters)

The Saucer Life ·

2017/10/03

This time around, we’re looking at the contactees–those who thought they had physical or psychic contact with human-appearing space aliens. Their messages were often more earthly than cosmic and they’re a lot of fun. Learn all about George Adamski and tune in next time when we’ll cover some more classic contacteeism. Thanks this time go […]

Bonus Encounter 1: A History of UFO Crashes

The Saucer Life ·

2017/10/02

This is the talk I gave on September 30 at the 50th Anniversary Festival commemorating the Shag Harbour UFO Incident in Shag Harbour, Nova Scotia. A few notes. First, the ending is a bit rushed and lacking detail near the end. For reasons beyond my control, what was supposed to be a 75 minute talk […]

Read These Books!

The Saucer Life ·

2017/09/19

A change of pace this time, as we look at four books that either are–or, I predict, one day will be considered–classics in the realm of flying saucer lore. Purchase the books below, or check out your local library! Messengers of Deception The Gods have Landed Shockingly Close to the Truth The Cryptoterrestrials

“A Creature from the Blackest Memory of your Fears”

The Saucer Life ·

2017/09/04

The Flatwoods Monster appeared in Braxton County, West Virginia in September 1952, at the tail end of a summer full of flying saucers all over the United States. The bizarre sighting drew the attention of people from established saucer figure Donald Keyhoe to neophyte Gray Barker and, even today, the brief incident remains a tourist […]

Of all the Things to Wish upon a Person–Al Bender and...

The Saucer Life ·

2017/08/22

In this episode, we’ll be looking at the story of Albert K. Bender and the origins of the Men in Black strand of flying saucer lore. Bender’s story is an odd one and, in my opinion, oddly touching. As a special treat, we feature some great audio of the man himself speaking in 1967. If […]

General Principles and the Story of Helen

The Saucer Life ·

2017/08/07

Welcome to our first episode! In this brief encounter, we'll introduce the basic idea behind The Saucer Life, explore a flying saucer book I am almost positive you've never even heard of, much less read, and look down the road a bit to upcoming episodes. You can find Helen Gismondi's book on Amazon. You can follow on Twitter (@saucerlife) or on Facebook. Stay tuned for the next installment in about a month!
