I have a Plus subscription until October. I certainly won't renew it. But I have not listened to an episode in months because they have nothing to offer me. Either it is "old boys week to reminisce, or there is a totally obscure guest that has little to do with ufology - very dry and dull. I bring this up because I wonder how Gene expects to attract new young suckers (often those new to ufology) by offering this bland program week after week. I am 7 years younger than Gene but I feel generations younger. I cannot imagine having my own podcast and then using it to indulge in a nostalgic look back at the 60's. Most of the podcast audience was not even born yet for another 20+ years. Who does Gene think he is broadcasting to, the residents of local Phoenix rest homes? As for merchandise, I am sure Goggs MacKay has purchased plenty of tee-shirts so he can boast in Scottland about being an important host of a huge famous American radio program. I give Goggs a hard time because when a person consciously overlooks evil for their own benefit, then that person is also evil.
I suspect that someone like Gene has mental issues. Just an opinion. There is an intensity and a bone stubborn consistency to his actions that do not reflect a healthy balanced mind in my opinion. I think restaurants are taking a big chance by letting Gene eat with silverware instead of plastic fork, knife and spoon. Just joking, Gene. If you can pay lawyers to harass people, then you can pay your monthly rent.
