Ken Layne's Desert Oracle radio show is one of my favorite podcasts. It covers desert life, the outdoors, UFOs, weird creatures, true crime, and other things. In some ways I think of it as a spiritual successor to Art Bell. There's also a Desert Oracle print magazine.

More info in this article: https://www.altaonline.com/dispatches/a42052683/an-ode-to-de...

Came here to say this. Ken is the defacto authority on anything supernatural in these parts.

"spiritual successor to Art Bell" is an awesome selling point. I still pull up old episodes of long night drives. Can't wait to check this one out, thanks!

Some say that reality is generated by humans.

So the greater the concentration of humans, the more normal everything is.

And if you go out into the wilderness, where there are no humans, you encounter weird stuff.

And if you are a weird human, well, there you go.
