Remembering Tim Conway / UFOs & Men in Black

Date

Hosted byGeorge Noory

Kelly Conway is a costume designer and the daughter of the now deceased, and very funny, Tim Conway, Sr. In the first half, in a live studio appearance, she talked about her new book "My Dad's Funnier Than Your Dad," (co-written with Caroline St. Clair) which details her relationship with her father, his long comedy career, and the rollercoaster ride that started with her father's illness. Her parents grew up in the Midwest, moving to Hollywood in 1962, when they drove all the way from Chagrin Falls, Ohio in a Volkswagen. His first big hit sitcom was "McHale's Navy" in the early 1960s, and then he found great comic success on The Carol Burnett Show. 

Conway talked about how as one of six children growing up in San Fernando Valley, they had a relatively normal rather than 'Hollywood' lifestyle. She didn't even realize her dad was famous initially. Kelly shared how her father loved to take her and her brothers to the Santa Anita Racetrack, where he taught them the art of betting on the horses. The one dark cloud in her wonderful lifelong relationship with her father was after he was diagnosed with a severe illness in 2017. Her stepmother Charlene was granted conservatorship, and prevented Kelly from seeing him for a time. Charlene had placed him in a skilled nursing facility, while Kelly had advocated for him to remain at home.

American occultist, ceremonial magician, UFO researcher, writer, and editor Allen H. Greenfield has twice been the recipient of the UFOlogist of the Year Award from the National UFO Conference. In the latter half, he talked about where UFOs are typically observed and how his cipher can be used to predict locations for their subsequent appearances. Because unidentified craft are seen in our skies and land, this would suggest they are "ultraterrestrials" and hail from other dimensions rather than distant star systems, he remarked. The Many Worlds Interpretation in quantum mechanics indicates there could be an infinite number of universes, and this may be where such visitors arise. "We can't open portals to there, but I think they open to portals to here," he mused. 

UFOs may travel along telluric currents or ley lines around the Earth to draw energy, he continued. Greenfield said he's one of the few people who have actually had a verifiable interaction with one of the Men in Black (MIB), who showed up at a UFO convention in Charleston, WV, in 1969 during the height of the 'Mothman' controversies. The MIB was following him and some of the other UFO researchers, and Greenfield confronted and photographed him. The man admitted to being "a Man in Black in training," and then took off, and as Greenfield ran after him, he seemed to vanish suddenly. 

During the last half-hour, a replay from 2011 with Brad Steiger discussing alien mysteries was featured.
