  • Heather Moser: Small Town Monstering
    Apr 24 2025

    Hey friends - this week, my guest is Heather Moser! You've seen Heather on many fantastic Small Town Monster productions, and her podcast The Lore You Know. Heather and I get into all sorts of fun stuff: Ohio/Pennsylvania bigfoot, folk magic, folklore, and many other elements of high strangeness. I really admire Heather's work, and she just happens to be a super cool human being too. I hope you all enjoy it!

    Love, Steve

  • Jake Johnson: Cosmic Friendship
    Apr 10 2025

    Hi buddies - this week on Hi, Strangeness, we have on actor, writer, director, and most importantly, my friend, Jake Johnson! Jake and I reminisce about our early days in LA, acting, and doing comedy. However, we quickly delve deep into "what the hell does this all mean!?" territory, and bounce around from life philosophies, giving eulogies, creativity, life after death, and some bits in-between. Jake is one of my best buddies in the world, so I hope you enjoy this little peak into our long friendship. He really is the best! Enjoy, friends!

    Love, Steve

  • Dean Alioto: The Alien Perspective
    Apr 3 2025

    Hey there, friends! This week on Hi, Strangeness, I have on filmmaker and all around great guy, Dean Alioto. We discuss his new film, The Alien Perspective, which flips the often seen point of view from the human side. Dean takes a different approach here, and delves into some different ideas of what could be going on with the UFO phenomenon. We also discuss and pay homage to his genre breaking found footage film, The McPherson Tapes. A classic, in my opinion. It was a blast chatting with Dean! Enjoy!

    Love, Steve

  • Michael Huntington and Joe Tury: Grand Tower
    Mar 20 2025

    Well, I hope everyone is having a groovy day. This week on Hi, Strangeness, I have on Michael Huntington and Joe Tury to discuss their film, Grand Tower: UFOs and Other High Strangeness! Friends, I really loved this doc. Joe directed a detailed historical account of many of the strange and unusual phenomenon reported in Grand Tower and the surrounding area. We're talking UFOs (of course), bigfoot, crytpids and other assorted weirdness. Also, they touch upon some of the history of the area, which beautifully paints a more clear picture of what's been going on in this river town. Get ready to add another window area to your weird bucket list, people! You can find Grand Tower: UFOs and Other High Strangeness on Apple, Amazon, Tubi etc. Enjoy!

    Love, Steve

  • Michael Jasorka: The Herbert Schirmer UFO Experience
    Mar 6 2025

    Hey buddies! This week I have on Michael Jasorka! Michael is a comic artist and expert on the 1967 Herbert Schirmer UFO encounter in Ashland, Nebraska. Michael created an amazing comic depicting (in Herbert's own words) his encounter, in great detail, I might add. As far as I know, Michael knows more about this case than anyone alive. He's one of the rare few who had meaningful correspondence with Herb before he died. This was a special one for me, as I'm obsessed with high strangeness in Nebraska. If you're into the Herb Schirmer story, or UFO history, this one is not to be missed! Enjoy!
