Derek Hayes and David Flora: The Borrego Triangle

from Hi, Strangeness · host Steve Berg

Hey there, friends! This week my guests are Derek Hayes (Monster Among Us Podcast) and David Flora (Blurry Photos Podcast)! These two upstanding gents  made a fantastic documentary, Shadows in the Desert: High Strangeness in the Borrego Triangle (2024). I really enjoyed this doc, so much so, that I needed to get these two fellow travels on the show right away!We discuss the documentary, without spoilers, and the many manifestations that this desert triangle has going for it: Bigfoot, UFOs, ghosts galore, and so much more! We also talk about some of their personal experience in the realm of the strange and unusual. I really admire what these two dudes did, and how they did it. I highly recommend checking out this film on TUBI, and likely some other streaming services. It's a good one! Love, Steve https://www.borregotriangle.com/where-to-streamDerek Hayes:Derek Hayes is the creator and host of award-winning podcast, Monsters Among Us, a collection of real paranormal stories told by the witnesses themselves.
