Updates from the World of UFOs and Close Encounters of the Third Kind with Whitley Strieber

Alien abductions, spooky sightings, inexplicable events, and supernatural experiences – are they just figments of overactive imaginations? Or, should we be taking this as serious evidence that the paranormal is real?

This week, the bestselling author of Communion, Whitley Strieber, joins Sandie to discuss his latest book, The Super Natural – A New Look at the Unexplained, co-authored with Rice University Professor of Religion Jeffrey J. Kripal, in which they offer an unprecedented and intellectually vibrant new framing of inexplicable events and experiences to demonstrate that all kinds of “impossible” things, from extra-dimensional beings to bilocation to bumps in the night, are not impossible at all, but rather are a part of our natural world.
