67 - The Weight of Destiny
On this episode we continue our South American odyssey as we finish our breakdown of Ardy Sixkiller Clarke's 'Sky People: Untold Stories of Alien Encounters In Mesoamerica'. Join us as we discuss if belief can be separated from the cultures that formed them, how we might apply a cultural myth to a broader understanding of humanity as a whole, and if we can connect with an older way of life or culture without discarding our technological advancements.

64 - 74 Paranormal Hamsters
Death is the only true constant of our world. It's all around us, haunting us, a constant reminder of our own mortality. Some endeavor to explore its mysteries through science or religion. Some, like the author of this month's book, go right to the source.
Join us as Rory leads the crew, and special guests Nicole and Noelle of the Quite Unusual Podcast, on part 1 of the journey through Adam Berry's book "Goodbye Hello: Processing Grief and Understanding Death through the Paranormal". We discuss how we got into the paranormal, what the afterlife might be, and why 74 is simply too many hamsters.

63 - You Can't Have Shit on Earth
Welcome to part 2 of our breakdown of the cryptozoological classic 'Serpents of the Sky, Dragons of the Earth' by F.W Holiday! On this episode Jay takes us into weirder waters. Listen in as we spin off from UFOs to the afterlife, the fey, angelic bigfoot, and ghost diners.
Links to Organizations mentioned by Jay:
Non profit dedicated to preserving Native art forms post-genocide
Non profit group primarily focused on fighting financial inequality via grants, job training, and research projects.
Action group dedicated to addressing systemic injustice, such as fighting treaty violations, returning stolen children, and elevating Native voices in policy.
Non profit dedicated to providing strong legal representation to native Americans, their tribes, and their organizations.
This is the tribe that Stephanie Meyer exploited for her Twilight werewolves. Global warming has made their current territory unsafe and they can't afford to move somewhere more secure, so, they're raising money.

Customer Reviews
Great podcast. Fascinating and Fun
Enlightening, entertaining and often amusing, the crew of Noctivagant energetically discuss both classic and current books about a range of topics concerning the Phenomenon. I have to admit I learned that descriptor from listening to this podcast! Their thorough research and deep understanding of the material are evident and they consistently make their discussions of even the driest of books compelling and fun to listen to. I always come away with something new to think about and a better understanding of just how much I don’t know. Their fairly recent addition of interviews with both authors of the books they’ve covered on the show and other experts in the field (Midnight Chats) are smoothly run, well organized and definitely worth the listen.
