He is an independent videographer, researcher, historian, and the producer of the YouTube series Pacific NorthWEIRD which chronicles the bizarre happenings and history of the Northwest. He also co-produces the Chehalis Flying Saucer Party which celebrates Kenneth Arnold’s historic 1947 flight out of the airport in Chehalis, WA that resulted in a UFO sighting that kickstarted the modern UFO craze.

Vince visits with Talking Weird to chat about the history of flying saucers in the Northwest: an area that spawned the modern UFO phenomenon with Kenneth Arnold's iconic sighting on June 24, 1947, as well as the infamous Maury Island UFO Incident; a UFO "crash" type incident that pre-dated Roswell, and included the first appearance of the Men in Black.

The theme of this year's Flying Saucer Party is "Disclosure", so expect the conversation to also go down that rabbit hole!
