HOST: George Knapp
GUESTS: Robert Hastings, Tony Kail
Following the publication of his 2008 book, UFOs and Nukes, Robert Hastings has
been approached by dozens of military veterans who were involved in UFO
incidents at nuclear weapons sites. In the first half, he joined George Knapp to
discuss these testimonies. UFOs have clearly made a point of monitoring and in
some cases even tampering with nuclear weapons around the world, he noted. In
many instances, he added, with the crafts' flashing lights or zig zag movements,
it's like they want to be noticed or have attention called to what they're
doing.
In a 1977 case, Mario Woods, a missile security policeman at Ellsworth AFB in
South Dakota may have been abducted by aliens in tandem with a sighting he had
at the launch control facility, Hastings reported. He initially flashed security
lights at an unknown aerial craft that seemed to be moving closer. There were
suddenly alarms on one of the missiles, as the strange light was directly above
the missile site. Woods described the object as spherical, silent, and a
swirling orange in color. He and his partner went to investigate in a truck,
experienced suffocation, and fell into a daze, and then Woods began to hear
voices in his head, repeatedly saying "do not fear." He believes he saw little
beings coming toward them. The two were recovered after four hours by other base
members, but had no recall of what happened during their missing time, Hastings
recounted. For more, check out his video, UFOs and Nukes, where you can use

In the latter half, author and ethnographer Tony Kail detailed the fascinating
history of the Southern folk magic known as Hoodoo, which blends together
various traditions, and developed across juke joints and Spirit churches across
the deep South. Hoodoo, he explained, is a system of magic that typically
focuses on matters relating to luck, love, protection, and in some cases
revenge, whereas Voodoo is a religious tradition with a specific practice.
Hoodoo, also called "rootworking' or "conjure" has been practiced for hundreds
of years, and was brought to the US by African slaves who worked in southern
plantations.
Hoodoo has been adapted to include different influences depending on the
geographical region, Kail pointed out. Generally though, it follows the
"doctrine of signatures," which suggests that roots and herbs which resemble
different body parts can be used to treat those specific parts. Such items might
be placed in a "mojo bag" to enable magic or spells, Kail continued. He has
focused in particular on the Hoodoo culture of Memphis, and specifically Beale
St., which was an influential nexus for African Americans, blues music, early
rock 'n' roll, and Hoodoo.
