René Barnett returns to radio with NightVision paranormal talk show on Cable Radio Network

SUNLAND, CA. (SPPR) – Controversial documentary filmmaker and reality television producer René Barnett returns to her radio roots with Night Vision, a daring new program that explores the paranormal through conversations with those who claim up close and personal experiences with the unknown.

Conspiracies, extraterrestrial encounters, conversations with the dead, secret societies and cryptozoology are only some of the very edgy topics included in the radio show, which premieres May 29th on the Cable Radio Network and other broadcast stations.

The two-hour program will run live at 9 p.m. Pacific time, and midnight Eastern.

“Because of my work, I’m fortunate to know a lot of name people in these subject areas,” Barnett says. “Night Vision will have authors and experts as guests, but we’re really putting the focus on the eye-witnesses and ‘experiencers’. We’ll hear from the person who was abducted by aliens, saved by an angel, or sucked into another dimension.”

A former radio producer/personality, print journalist and managing editor of UFO magazine, René Barnett is a veteran reality television producer specializing in entertainment specials, series, documentaries and reality-based programming. Her producing credits include some of the premiere specials and series of the reality television genre, including Ripley’s Believe It or Not!, Unmasked: Exposing the Secrets of Deception, Strange Universe, Places of Mystery, Guinness Book of Records Primetime and the highly-rated clip show Busted Everywhere.

Barnett is also producer of the 2008 nonfiction film Bloodline, which caused worldwide controversy by going a step beyond The Da Vinci Code with an exploration of the theory that Jesus Christ married and had a child with Mary Magdalene (“An ambitious, sharply intriguing documentary”– Los Angeles Times).

Says Barnett: “A night vision camera illuminates things hidden in the dark. That’s what this show will do,” Barnett says. “We’re going straight to the people who’ve had firsthand experiences and let them tell their stories. Whether it’s someone who communicates with the dead or was abducted by aliens, we’ll hear their story. Don’t get me wrong, we’re not completely credulous, but I don’t feel it’s our job to debunk them, either. Night Vision will give them a forum.”

The two-hour program will include other unique elements, including a five-minute news segment by Night Vision team member, Alan Maxson “in which you’ll get all the news you won’t hear on CNN and Fox: the sightings, anomalies, earth changes.” The second hour of Night Vision will feature calls from listeners.

The Night Vision team also includes producer Jeff Floro and the Goddess Artemis, “taking your calls.”

NightVision premieres May 29th at 9 pm Pacific time, midnight Eastern.

TRIVIA: René Barnett got her start in radio at KAKC in Tulsa, Oklahoma, as the newscaster who also provided occasional live sound effects on called “Dr. Mazeppa Pompazoidi’s Unfilmy Can Festival,” a zany late night show featuring Tulsa natives Gailard Sartain and Gary Busey. René Barnett was a regular guest on Art Bell’s AM Coast to Coast and Dreamland radio series. René Barnett is creator and executive producer of two cable network reality television series now in production.
