Men in Black
Who exactly are the Men in Black? This week, we dive deep into the uncanny history of the world's most unsettling, pale-skinned party poopers. We look at the very first MIB encounter during the 1947 Maury Island incident, an incredibly bizarre 1976 visit involving disappearing coins and drawn-on lipstick, and the sheer chaos they caused during the Mothman sightings in Point Pleasant—including attempting to drink Jell-O and vanishing from basements. Are they interdimensional "ultra-terrestrials" playing cosmic tricks on our limited senses? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
Celebrity UFO Encounters
Do aliens seek out the rich and famous, or are they the ones pulling the strings in Hollywood? This week we explore the strange world of celebrity UFO sightings, from Kurt Russell being the first pilot to report the 1997 Phoenix Lights to Goldie Hawn’s “benevolent” encounter with silver beings in the back of a car. We also discuss Elvis’s telepathic visions, Dan Aykroyd’s run-in with a Man in Black, and John Lennon’s naked UFO spotting in New York City. Hosted on Acast.

The Varginha Incident
This week we’re traveling to 1996 Brazil to dive into the Varginha incident, famously known as "Brazil’s Roswell." Did a cigar-shaped craft crash in the mountains, leaving behind pieces of "memory metal" that defied the laws of physics? We discuss the three young women who came face-to-face with a brown, oily creature with three horns and glowing red eyes, and the tragic story of the military policeman who allegedly died after handling the being with his bare hands. Also, Tom explains why his podcasting skills make him the perfect candidate to lead the FBI, and we look into the recent string of disappearing scientists with high-level security clearance.

Levitation
It’s one of humanity's most elusive superpowers: levitation. This week dive into the life of St. Joseph of Cupertino, the 17th-century "Flying Friar" whose flights were witnessed by hundreds—including a stunned Pope Urban VIII—and eventually got him sequestered by a very skeptical Church. Also, Tom recounts a Transcendental Meditation training video featuring "yogic flying" that looked suspiciously like a room full of people hopping cross-legged on mattresses. Hosted on Acast.

Bob Lazar is Full of Shit
Since 1989, Lazar has claimed he was recruited to reverse-engineer alien spacecraft at S4, a secret facility near Area 51, where he encountered a sleek "sports model" saucer powered by element 115. But is Bob Lazar a misunderstood genius whose records were scrubbed by the government, or is he just the UFO community’s most committed bullshitter?

Havana Syndrome
This week we’re investigating the unsettling mystery of Havana Syndrome, the series of “Anomalous Health Incidents” that have plagued US diplomats and CIA agents around the globe. Is it a clandestine Russian microwave weapon that can fit in a backpack? We explore the history of the Moscow Signal, the terrifying potential of “voice to skull” technology, and why Laura Bush might have been an early target. Hosted on Acast.
