Topic: Robert Newport

In 2000, Adam Gorightly was contacted by Robert Newport, a founding member of the Discordian Society who had rescued Greg Hill's personal archives from being discarded. Newport provided Gorightly with boxes of materials, including the long-lost first edition of the Principia Discordia and documents related to the Garrison investigation. This archive serves as the primary source for Gorightly's books, including the upcoming Caught in the Crossfire.

Following the interview, Adam Gorightly shares personal stories of synchronicity involving his research into Kerry Thornley. He describes receiving an unsolicited email from Discordian co-founder Bob Newport, which led to him acquiring the original Discordian archives. Gorightly and Carlwood discuss whether these events are meticulously planned or a natural mechanism of the universe.
