Six Months of Encounters USA
Over six months ago, I finished my last interview for Books in Heinessight. It was the first podcast I’d ever done. Unfortunately, I was not only disillusioned, my downloads and views were dropping every month. At the time I didn’t think I would ever say, “aliens, Bigfoot and Dogman – Encounters USA Is Now 6 Months Old!”
Field Investigations
I couldn’t blame anyone but myself. My interest in the books and their authors I was interviewing was sometimes half-hearted at best. It was almost like I was trying to make an uninteresting podcast even more uninteresting.
There was also another variable in the equation. Before long, I noticed I found the paranormal authors I was interviewing on Books in Heinessight somewhat more interesting than other types of authors. I soon saw that many other viewers and listeners had an interest in UFO’s, remote viewing, Bigfoot, and a new phenomenon, the Dogman or Wolfen as well.
I also wanted to get out of the studio
Although I knew how to do a podcast, I didn’t have any idea how to do a paranormal podcast with three different topics. I never heard of anyone trying to incorporate more than one topic, such as UFO’s and Bigfoot. Nevertheless, I was attempting to combine all three seemingly unrelated topics.
As a result, once I began to seriously research them, I came to a rather refreshing conclusion. Maybe Aliens, Bigfoot and Dogman share a common connection after all.
However, I was still left with how to format the show. I didn’t know if I should do field investigations, podcasts and on site interview with investigators.
I wanted to avoid doing dull, traditional podcasts if I could
Since I couldn’t make a decision, I decided to go forward and do all three. Assessing my assets, I had a mobile studio, a four wheel drive and all the camping equipment I needed.
After much thought and contemplation, I organize the show around some in-studio interviews, some in-the-field interviews and conduct my own research.
By incorporating aliens, Bigfoot and Dogman, Encounters USA was a truly revolutionary new kind of podcast. The only question was, would anyone agree?
No Witchcraft Please!
Then I made my first big mistake. I thought I could increase my chances of getting viewers by finding an attractive co-host.
I found a nice looking lady from somewhere in the Mid-West. She had a definite interest in doing the show.
Things went great for the first few episodes. We were having a great time. Then the unexpected happened.
Unfortunately, my co-host invited another woman who was intent on practicing some kind of witchcraft on the show.
It was time to re-think the show format.
