Summary

Darkness Radio Presents: The Legacy of Erich Von Daniken & The First 12 Days w/Scotty Roberts!

This past weekend, Erich Von Daniken, Author of Chariots of the Gods , and the father of the Ancient Astronauts theory, passed away at the age of 90 years old. Despite his controversial views in the eyes of scientists, he was revered in the eyes of the Paranormal community. In 2012, Von Daniken was brought in by visionary promoter Scotty Roberts for his first appearance in 12 years in America for the Paradigm Symposium, which was leaps and bounds before it's time.

On Today's Show, Tim sits down with Scotty to talk a vit about Erich Von Daniken, the man, Scotty's experience's with him, and Von Daniken's legacy. In the second half of the program, we turn the spotlight on Scotty, and talk about a moving new book that he has written after an extreme health crisis where he ended up having his leg amputated, and his wife leaving him, all within the space of 12 days!
