VYS0037 | Elvis with a Flaming Sword - Vayse to Face with AP Strange - Show Notes In this episode Vayse welcomes AP Strange, a writer, researcher and blogger with a near encyclopaedic knowledge of all things weird and a wicked sense of humour to go with it. Hine and Buckley shake down AP's voluminous brain on a wide range of bizarre topics and greedily feast on the nuggets of information that fall out, including the answers to such questions as: What were the entities that revealed the future to AP as a child and why did he liken them to Mikey Mouse's gloves? Did AP take a ghost for a spin in his Mustang and what was revealed when he got a tarot reading from this suspected phantom? Why is a sense of humour essential to an open mind and what happens if you don't embrace that? How can we learn to receive messages from the cosmos and allow a little more Strange into our lives? How and why do people so often ignore their own experiences of High Strangeness and should more of us be open to accepting the King of Rock 'n' Roll's Flaming Sword...? (Recorded 18 February 2024) Thanks to AP for generously giving us time from his busy Sunday morning and thanks as always to Keith for his valiant and tireless work on the ever increasing show notes, give the man a follow: @peakflow.bsky.social AP Strange online Website/blog (https://www.apstrange.com/) Twitter (https://twitter.com/AProdigiosus) Instagram (https://www.instagram.com/apstrange23/) Holy Donut Revival Hour - YouTube channel (https://www.youtube.com/@DonutRevival) Holy Donut Revival Hour on Twitter (https://twitter.com/donutrevival) Holy Donut Revival Hour - Patreon (https://www.patreon.com/DonutRevival) AP’s blog posts referenced in the episode My Personal Experience with the Phenomenon, Which I've told on Podcasts Too Many Times (https://www.apstrange.com/p/my-personal-experience-with-phenomenon.html) Emanations From the Clown Realm - Legend Tripping, Hilarious Magic, and Synchronicity (https://www.apstrange.com/search?q=sandown+clown) The Journey of the Fool (https://www.apstrange.com/2023/11/the-journey-of-fool.html) From Brooklyn to Neptune: The Bugs Bunny / UFO Connection!
