December 29, 2012 – Archives\/Pod Casts\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Hour 1<\/a> –\u00a0\u00a0 Hour 2<\/a> –\u00a0\u00a0 Hour 3<\/a><\/p>\n

Hour 1:\u00a0 Paul Kimball<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/strong>Joining Amerika Now during the first hour of the show is noted filmmaker Paul Kimball<\/strong>, who will be discussing his book, The Other Side of Truth:\u00a0 The Paranormal, The Art of the Imagination, and The Human Condition.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

In The Other Side of Truth<\/em><\/strong>, filmmaker Kimball crosses the Rubicon of the imagination to explore the idea that what we call the \u201cparanormal\u201d is actually a form of performance art created by an advanced non-human intelligence to make us think about who we are, where we have been, and where we are going.\u00a0 Using his own journey of discovery as the backdrop, Kimball puts forward the \u201cother side of truth\u201d \u2013 the world not as we have been told it is, but as we are being encouraged to imagine it could become.<\/p>\n

Paul will demonstrate that there is nothing simple about such matters as the “paranormal,” UFOs, life after death, and synchronicity as he reveals, through his own fascinating experiences, that the journey in search of the answers can be a deeply satisfying one.\u00a0 He will examine issues such as philosophy, consciousness, metaphysics and the nature of reality while fleshing out his insightful theories with details of some of his own bizarre experiences.<\/p>\n

\"\"\u201cIn The Other Side of Truth<\/strong><\/em>, filmmaker Paul Kimball takes his questing intelligence on a trip with an intriguing destination: a better understanding of what constitutes the\u00a0 \u2018paranormal\u2019, and a broader discussion of what constitutes \u2018truth\u2019. Armed with a skeptical outlook but a remarkably open mind, Kimball takes the reader on a unique and entertaining journey through low and high culture \u2013 I love how he sweeps past the difference between the two \u2013 facts and feelings, and many remembrances of strange incidents in his own life, and arrives at a place that allows the \u2018paranormal\u2019 to breathe fresh air for the first time in many years.\u201d
\n– Ron Foley MacDonald, theater \/ film critic and senior programmer of the Atlantic Film Festival.<\/p>\n

Paul Kimball holds an honors degree in history from Acadia University and a law degree from Dalhousie University.\u00a0 He founded Redstar Films in 1999, and has since created a wide range of film and television programming for distributors and networks around the world, including the documentaries Best Evidence:\u00a0 Top 10 UFO Sightings <\/em>and Stanton T.
