Magical Mystery Radio: Conspiracy & Paranormal Review

Happy Halloween! What was the real-life inspiration for THE EXORCIST? What really happened in AMITYVILLE? Was THE ENTITY a demon, spirit, or poltergeist? Who haunts the HOLLYWOOD SIGN? What silent stars STILL can't rest in peace?

Adam and John chew on HOLLYWOOD GHOST STORIES (1986), a delicious slice of vintage 80s direct-to-video cheese.

COVID-19. Coronavirus. What else is there to talk about?

It's end of the world as we know it, and we feel mostly pretty okay.

• The WEIRDEST inventions of all time.
• John revises his predictions for the upcoming year.
• When you're too stupid to know you're stupid...
• "Mad Mike" Hughes - why the words "homemade" and "rocket" should never appear together in the same sentence (except maybe this one).
• John and Adam discuss 80s horror (plus War of the Worlds).
• Breaking: Man throws snowball at this friend and hits him in the face!

Thirty years of Simpsons predictions: Did the venerable animated series really forecast Kobe's helicopter crash, the coronavirus epidemic, and Disney's acquisition of Fox (not to mention a bunch of other stuff)? The Cotopaxi went missing in the Bermuda Triangle nearly a century ago. Now it's been found. You know it as the ship the aliens dropped in the desert in Spielberg's Close Encounters of the Third Kind. What's the REAL story?

The US government declares that releasing any further information about the Nimitz UFO sightings would "gravely damage" national security. Why? What are they hiding?

Adam revisits the films of John Hughes. This turns into a discussion of evolving ethical standards in media - and of diversity in the arts.

And John talks about Bigfoot. Again.

From August 2, 2017: We interview writer and historian Francis Richard Conolly, the filmmaker behind the explosive documentary and viral sensation, JFK to 9/11: Everything Is a Rich Man's Trick. Released in 2014, it has garnered rave reviews since its release and, probably more than a little consternation from the, "powers that be", as it explains and synthesizes a tremendous amount of information that the elite don't want you to be aware of, let alone understand. Clocking in at 3 1/2 hours, Everything Is a Rich Man's Trick, takes you on a journey from WWI up the present day, explaining the, "who, how & why of the JFK assassination", and the likelihood that many of the same players (or at least the same playbook) were behind 9/11. It's not only deeply informative, but riveting as well, and we couldn't recommend it any higher for those interested in how the "real world" works.
