The Hudson Valley Lights – Triangular UFOs Over New York (1983–1986)
In this episode of Mysteries of UFOs, we dive into the Hudson Valley UFO wave, a massive series of sightings that stretched from 1983 to 1986 in suburban New York. Thousands of residents—families, police officers, pilots, and commuters—reported seeing a huge, silent triangular or V-shaped craft hovering low over towns, highways, and forests. Witnesses described bright white lights along its edges and a red light at the center, with many insisting the object was the size of a football field or larger. Calls flooded police departments as people watched the craft glide slowly, sometimes appearing to drift deli...

U.S. Army & West Point for an African American Officer (1940s-1970s)
(Previously Aired on 11/10/2020) Col. Clifford Worthy, the great-grandson of slaves, was one of the first African-American men of his generation to be accepted and excel as a Black Knight of the Hudson, a traditional nickname for West Point cadets. In the late 1940s, the doors to the U.S. Military Academy at West Point were closed to most young African-American men. The few who had attended before were subjected to relentless abuse and few survived. Worthy took the chance of reaching out to U.S. Rep. John Dingell Sr., who had been a proud part of the...

S1E1: Hudson Street
“Hudson Street” was an ABC sitcom that aired for one season in 1995. The show starred Tony Danza as a divorced detective in Hoboken, New Jersey. The series also featured Lori Loughlin as Melanie Clifford, an idealistic crime reporter with whom Tony starts a romance. The show initially received good reviews and placed in the top ten (partly due to its placement between “Roseanne” and “Home Improvement”), however, it struggled to hold on to its lead-in audience. A decline in viewership ultimately led to its cancellation. Does "Hudson Street" live up to the standard of the Danza sitcoms that came before it? Listen as...

Psymposia advisory board member and psychedelic researcher, Jae Sevelius, joins us to talk about queer theory, psychedelic research with transgender and gender diverse people, and what happens when political assumptions go unexamined in both research contexts and the world at large. Drawing on the work of Dr. Sevelius, as well as Dr. Devenot and Dr. Ross, we discuss some of the ways that research and social relations reproduce the logic of mainstream culture, and how queering acts as barrier to and disruption of that reproduction.

#32 - It's All Red Flags: 5-MeO-DMT with Dr. Martin Ball
Psymposia editors discuss Dr. Martin Ball's "session info" document that the retired 5-MeO-DMT practitioner sent to Psymposia. Dr. Ball has referenced the document in defense of his practices and cites it as evidence that his clients consented to him touching their genitals or vomiting on them while under the influence of 5-MeO-DMT. Our analysis shows that this isn't actually a consent document. It sets the stage for what is considered normal, and positions Dr. Ball as the ultimate authority on the subject. It creates expectations which render people more vulnerable while filtering out those who are less...

If we know change is coming for us, why not strategically prepare for it?I had the privilege of speaking with the amazing Robert Rosenberg, who just happens to know a thing or two about strategic transition.

#307 The Holland Tunnel: The Wonder of the Jazz Age
EPISODE 307 The Holland Tunnel, connecting Manhattan with Jersey City beneath the Hudson River, is more important to daily life in New York City than people may at first think. Before the creation of the Holland Tunnel, commuters and travelers had painfully few options if they wanted to get to and from Manhattan. And for the city's many waterfront industries, there was mostly only one option --- barges and ferries that carried cargo across the crowded Hudson River, maneuvering through an overcrowded port system which profited from the grotesque congestion.

#6 - Abusing Power: Taking Predatory Daniel Pinchbeck At His Word
Author Daniel Pinchbeck sexually harassed and coerced interns, community members, and those less-powerful than himself, harming untold numbers of women in the psychedelic community. He has described himself as being "sexually fixated, creepy, predatory," using psychedelics as "tools of seduction," "making unwanted advances" towards much younger women, and "seeking sexual contact with volunteers in an organization" that he helped start. Despite this, some individuals and organizations are fixated on defending and rehabilitating Pinchbeck's image rather than meaningfully addressing systemic issues of sexual misconduct and misogyny in the community; promoting a perpetrator while ignoring the victims and survivors.

#2 - Decriminalization Now!
The historical record is clear - drug prohibition is directly connected to the prosecution of minorities: ethnic or political. Not only do we see a complete lack of scientific or evidentiary basis for prohibition and criminalization, we can see it has been a product of white supremacy, xenophobia, misogyny, and imperialism.
