Summary

Gene and cohost Tim Swartz present our staff announcer, Bob Zanotti, with another episode of "Voices of the Past." Bob has been interested in the UFO phenomenon from a very young age, back in the 50’s as a pre-teen. In the 1960’s he hosted a New York college radio talk show called “Coffee Klatsch,” which was devoted to the offbeat and the paranormal. As well, Bob often interviewed current UFO personalities. In this episode, you'll hear exclusive audio segments from his radio show, featuring some of the greats and near-greats in the UFO field from the early days. They included Gray Barker, Yonah Fortner, Dominick Lucchesi, Jim Moseley, August C. Roberts, John J. Robinson, Ivan T. Sanderson, and Andy Sinatra, who was also known as "The Mystic Barber." After broadcast journalism studies in New York and Montreal, his calling led Bob to Switzerland, where he was a full-time broadcast journalist and presenter at Swiss Radio International, Switzerland’s international shortwave station. During his 32 years with SRI, Bob also produced a number of features involving the paranormal and the esoteric. One of them featured infamous contactee Billy Meier, which is available for download to subscribers to The Paracast Plus. His website is: www.switzerlandinsound.com
