Flash Forward is a show about possible (and not so possible) future scenarios. What would the warranty on a sex robot look like? How would diplomacy work if we couldn’t lie? Could there ever be a fecal transplant black market? (Complicated, it wouldn’t, and yes, respectively, in case you’re curious.)

Charles Lear has been writing about flying saucers/UFOs for several years and still finds the subject, and the stories of the people involved, fascinating. Besides his interest in all things fortean, his pursuits include paleontology, geology, hiking, bad movies, and mid-20th century electronic music. He has been a theatre person for most of his life. As a performer, he sticks to Shakespeare, and he makes his living as an I.A.T.S.E. Local One welder/carpenter in the construction shop of the Metropolitan Opera. This is the 2nd edition of “The Flying Saucer Investigators,” and he has another saucer/UFO-related book available, titled “Crashed Saucers and Malevolent Aliens.”

Charles visits with Dean to commemorate the 78th anniversary of the start of 1947's "Summer of the Saucers", as well as the beginning of the modern UFO era, when pilot Kenneth Arnold reported seeing nine metallic-looking objects flying in formation, and at incredible speeds, near Mount Rainier, Washington. Arnold, after being hired by Raymond B. Palmer, became the world's first "flying saucer investigator". Charles talks about Palmer, Arnold, and many of the other significant researchers and writers in the early days of Ufology.
This is a fascinating conversation, do not miss it!
