This week on BoA: The Revival, UFO historian Jeff Knox returns to the show for a fun conversation about curious cases from his flying saucer files, including an array of odd hoaxes & 'entities,' Australia's Knowles Family UFO Incident, and a whole bunch more. open.spotify.com/episode/6Lbn...
This is the case mentioned in Chapter 6 of @jackbrewer.bsky.social 's book Wayward Sons. With the letter from Amoss in the thread.
just finished reading Joseph L. Flatley's book New Age Grifter: The True Story of Gabriel of Urantia and his Cosmic Family. What a fantastic read. I highly recommend. #ufosky #ufo #ufobooks #ufocults #uforelgion #nrm
