Mysteries and Monsters: Episode 105 June Gossler Anderson

January 11, 2021

This week, we're taken on a trip around some of Ireland's most notable haunted locations in the company of author June Gossler Anderson. June's latest book "Hauntings and History of the Emerald Isle" has just been released via Beyond The Fray Publishing.

Part travelogue and part paranormal investigation, June's book covers her trip to Ireland back in 2015 and looks into more than just the ghosts.

We look at the notorois Leap Castle, the scene of many a brutal murder and home to more than more than one haunting apparition, Enniscorthy Castle which saw tragic events imprint themselves upon the castle walls, June's experiences with table tipping and a rather cheeky set of spirits on a ghost hunt and some of the ghosts residing at Duncannon Fort.

Mysteries and Monsters: Episode 104 Nick Redfern

January 4, 2021

Nick Redfern returns to Mysteries and Monsters to help us kick of the new year in style and act as our guide as we delve into the mysteries of the red planet and his book "The Martians".

Mars has captivated us for centuries, from the Romans and Greeks up to the present day and our current exploration of the planet's surface. Nick and I discuss many of the aspects of his book, from the alleged sightings of canal's upon the surface, weird anomalies sighted in photographs, secret NASA programs and the potential for a civilisation ending event that could have been responsible for the end of a Martian civilisation.

Nick also covers a couple of cases from his preceding book "Monsters Of The Deep" too as we look at strange creatures in the London underground and creepy sandwich stealing ghost in a pit.

It was great to have Nick return to the show and both of his most recent books are highly recommended.

Mysteries and Monsters: Episode 103 Krissy Eliot

December 30, 2020

As we end the year, we welcome back Krissy Eliot to discuss the possibilities of the intelligence of plants. Krissy has just written a fantastic article for Edge Science magazine that looks in to the potential for sentience in plant life.

Whilst these cutting edge theories have been on the fringes of science for centuries, more and more scientists are uncovering some rather intriguing evidence to suggest we know next to nothing about the world of plants and how they actual live.

We cover numerous experiments, discuss the reality of plant networking, support, the response to predators even when unable to see or feel them and many other weird and wonderful discoveries covered in Krissy's outstanding article.

Mysteries and Monsters: Episode 102 American Mysteries

December 28, 2020

On this Christmas special, we have two guests for your entertainment.

In the first hour, we have Mary Joyce discussing her book "Cherokee Little People Were Real". We discuss testimonies of men who discovered ancient little tunnels, small skeletons and even a child-size skull with all its wisdom teeth when they were working on early construction projects at Western Carolina University in Cullowhee, North Carolina.

In the second part of the show, I am joined by Dennis Stone, owner of the enigmatic site near Salem, New Hampshire. Dennis has inherited the site and has spent the best part of 40 years trying to get the bottom of this unusual construction.

To say the site is controversial would be an understatement and Dennis takes us through some of the unusual buildings and investigations carried out during this time.

A big thank you to both my guests for joining me today.

Mysteries and Monsters: Episode 98 Boggy Creek with Lyle Blackburn

November 29, 2020

It's a warm welcome back to one of our favourite guests, the marvellous Lyle Blackburn to discuss his fantastic new book, Boggy Creek Casebook.

Stories of the Fouke Monster came to public attention in the early 70's with both a terrifying incident in 1971 and Charles.B.Pierce's cult classic, The Legend of Boggy Creek in 1972. The success of the film has made Boggy Creek a household name in the world of Cryptozoology.

Yet, as Lyle's book clearly demonstrates, encounters had been occurring for several decades prior to the flap in the 1960's and early 1970's and continue to this day.

Lyle and I discuss his continuing relationship with both the people of Fouke and its infamous cryptid, some of the most notable cases in the book and much more besides.

As always, it was a pleasure to speak with Lyle again and I am sure you'll enjoy our conversation.

You can find all of Lyle's books on his website here:

Smalltown Monsters are here:

A big thank you as always to Lyle for joining me.

Mysteries and Monsters: Episode 97 Russian USOs with Paul Stonehill

November 23, 2020

This week, we return to the world of Ufofology with author and investigator, Paul Stonehill.

Paul has been writing about UFO's and USO's from his home country of Russia for several years and his latest book focuses on encounters and witnesses around the world on Russian ships and submarines.

We discuss several cases included in his book Russia's USO secrets: Unindentified Submersible Objects in Russian and International Waters.

We discuss the mysterious sounds of the Kvakeri, strange sightings in the Pacific and Atlantic oceans and mysterious encounters above the Arctic Circle.

It's a subject we are still uncovering and it is interesting to see just how the former Soviet Union and the modern Russia view the UFO/USO phenomena and how they continued to investigate these cases under the cover of secrecy.

Paul's book's can be found here:

A big thank you to Paul for joining me today.
