About The Guest: Mike is an expert in ultralight backpacking, and is the author and illustrator of a series of instructional books on advanced outdoor techniques, everything from how to cook, how to climb, how to survive and more. He is the author of the highly praised book, The Messengers, in which he explores the mysterious connections between owls, synchronicities, and UFO abductions. In fact, it was his own firsthand experiences with these elusive effects that have been the foundation of his research.In this episode, Mike shares his own experiences, and the fascinating connection between owls and UFOs. The stories he shares are mindboggling and will change the way you feel about the UFO phenomenon.Besides “The Messengers,” he has written the companion book, “Stories from the Messengers” which continues his research into the owl connection. Also “Hidden Experience” about his own personal experiences. As he says, “I wrote about the most difficult time of my life as it was happening, and posted it on a blog. I’d been confronted with a chain of strange events that all pointed to one thing, and I was forced to ask myself, ‘Am I a UFO abductee?’” Most recently he wrote the novel, “The Unseen,” which is a paranormal thriller about a town full of mysteries and secrets, ghosts and premonitions and more! That’s more than 30 books at last count!Mike is a podcaster, and hosted “The Unseen” on Whitley Strieber’s Unknown Country website, and has appeared on Coast to Coast and most of the major UFO/paranormal podcasts.Thank you for tuning into The Light Gate.
