Episode 62: The Superspectrum of High Strangeness with Steve Ward
The Superspectrum of High Strangeness: Mixed Media painting by Barbara Fisher 2022.
Steve H. S. Ward (he says his middle name is High Strangeness) is a wonderful podcaster and was the first podcaster to interview us and promote our podcast when we first started out.
A fellow Keelian, Steve is remarkably well read and is a prolific presenter at gatherings and conventions, as well as being a veteran investigator. He always has good stories to tell.
He mentions a lot of books—within the first 15 minutes of this podcast, he mentions 9 books. Don’t worry. I wrote the titles and authors all down for you!
What do we talk about?
Everything!
John Keel, Jacques Vallee, the Contactees of the 1950s. babysitting in a haunted house, anomalous voices and sounds, Indrid Cold, Mothman, channelling, disembodied voices, Dogman, and seeing alligators come out of your faucets (Wolf, my younger child says that is leveling up from the childhood fear of alligators coming up from the sewers to bite your butt while you’re on the toilet).
And we talk about bunches of other stuff besides. The discussion is fast and furious, and ever so much fun.
I hope y’all have as good a time listening as we did talking with Steve. He’s a hoot!
