Summary

EPISODE #825 UFOS, THE OCCULT AND METAPHYSICS Richard welcomes an expert in the occult to discuss such topics as UFOs and ESP research covered in his new book of essays. GUEST: Mitch Horowitz was raised in a world of Bigfoot stories, UFO sightings, and Carlos Castaneda books. He grew determined to find the truth behind it all—and today Mitch is a PEN Award-winning historian and the author of books including Occult America; One Simple Idea: How Positive Thinking Reshaped Modern Life; and Mind As Builder: The Positive-Mind Metaphysics of Edgar Cayce. Mitch has written on everything from the war on witches to the secret life of Ronald Reagan for The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, Salon, and Politico. The Washington Post says Mitch “treats esoteric ideas and movements with an even-handed intellectual studiousness that is too often lost in today’s raised-voice discussions.” He is the voice of popular audio books including Alcoholics Anonymous. A longtime publishing executive, Mitch has published authors, living and dead, including David Lynch and Manly P. Hall.
