This is part one of two. Below is part two of the interview with Marden ("Richard Dolan interviews Kathleen Marden (Part 2)").
In this part one of the interview, Kathleen Marden is mostly describing and talking about her own and other researchers' studies on the experiencer phenomenon (what I call the "contact aspect" of the UFO-phenomena). Marden defines "experiencers" as "those people who had contact with nonhuman entities." Both positive and negative contacts and experiences. These nonhuman entities are not always necessarily what we would think of as extraterrestrial beings or "aliens", according to Marden's and other researchers' data.
An interesting result of Marden's research is that 88 % of experiencers say that after an UFO-encounter/experience and/or abduction they also start to experience paranormal activity in their homes and lives.
In the first 25 minutes of part one, Marden talks about her recent commonality study were most of the experiencers in the study say that they have become more intuitive and empathic (not the same as "empathetic"), and they ascribe these heighten abilities with their experiences with the nonhuman entities.
Marden also asked the experiencers in her study if they would like their extraordinary experiences to stop. 71 % answered that they did not want their experiences to stop, while a significant minority, 29 %, answered that they wanted their experiences to stop.
Dolan and Marden explore possible answers and interpretations of the statistical data I have mentioned above.
As always; listen with both an open and a skeptical mind. Form your own opinions.
Richard Dolan speaks with Kathleen Marden Leading UFO researcher, author and lecturer, and expert on the Betty and Barney Hill UFO Experience.
This is Part Two of a Two-Part video.
You can skip ahead in the show to 6:30 minutes to avoid the annoying commercial break. In this part two of the interview, Kathleen Marden starts by describing an abduction case with multiple and credible witnesses. This case also shows how paranormal activity can follow - or somehow seems to be triggered by - UFO encounters and/or abduction experiences.
22:30 minutes into the show, Marden shares her own extraordinary experiences that occurred in her childhood and included other members of her family. In relation to her personal story, Marden also talks about the modus operandi of the debunkers of the UFO-phenomenon.
In the second half of this part two, Dolan asks Marden where she thinks the abduction research is today, what the current hypotheses are, and so on. That conversation starts around the 34 minutes mark, but I am not sure if Dolan and Marden really discusses Dolan's above questions. Instead, they go on a tangent - a fascinating tangent - about a woman named Francess Swann (I am unsure of my spelling) who in the 1950´s was in contact with some high-level individuals in the government and the military about the abduction/experiencer phenomena.
Take care!
