The Biggest Podcast in the Universe

For the inaugural episode of Gods, Ghosts & UFOs, it seemed fitting to tackle the subject that has been smashing into the walls of consensus reality like a battering ram.

In late 2024, UFO sightings became so pervasive across so much of the country (and, if you were paying attention, in many other parts of the world, too) that the story made headlines in every major news outlet.

Most of these were probably drones and boring old airplanes. But probably not all of them.

So we decided to jump into the conversation by interrogating our own ideas and assumptions, consulting an AI correspondent named Agnes, and calling in an expert on the topic — Kelly Chase, whose very popular UFO Rabbit Hole Podcast recently relaunched as Cosmosis, alongside the release of a truly excellent docu-series of the same name.

Finally, it just so happened that one of our venerable hosts had his first honest-to-goodness UFO sighting during the production of the Pilot. So of course we talked about that, too.

But this is just the first episode…

In the future, we’ll cover everything from cryptids to simulation theory. We’ll explore the nature of consciousness from the perspectives of ancient mythology and modern religion. We’ll get into NDEs, telepathy, synchronicities, and time travel. We’re gonna spend a lot of time with ghosts.

We’re not just interested in UFOs — we want to pry open all the cracks in the dead cosmology of western modernity, and see what’s on the other side. The universe is enchanted, animated by magic, wondrous and frightening.

In other words, we’re not picking a lane, and neither should you.

As much as we love hanging out and talking about this stuff on our own, another big part of why we’re doing this — an even bigger part, honestly — is that we want to meet and talk to other people who are willing to keep their arms and hearts open to the numinous.

People like you.

So talk to us. Leave a comment, send a message, whatever. We want to hear your stories, and we want you to tell us about all the mysteries and magic you find.

The canon is open. Help us fill it to overflowing.
