But It Was Aliens

#202 Betz Sphere - Space Balls


Listen Later

The extraterrestrial comedy podcast where we probe the Betz Sphere. This metallic bowling ball turned up in Fort George Forman Grill Island in Florida in 1974. Was this sphere responsible for the fire that may or may not have burnt down the Betz’s house? Regardless, the life of the Betz family was thrown in to chaos as the media got hold of this story and sooner or later, Dr J. Allen Hynek got involved. The Navy also took a special interest. Would such bodies be interested if something fishy wasn’t going on? Alongside that this episode ponders Pogs. Do you folks remember Pogs? After the first couple of minutes folks may want to skip to about 10 minutes 30 seconds in because oh my that was a tangent… All that and more on this week’s file.

Towards the end of the episode when discussing a windmill, we couldn’t resist including a small snippet from ‘Windmill Hut’ which is better known as the Song of Storms from 1998’s The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time on the Nintendo 64, composed by hero of sound, Kōji Kondō. Kōji also composed the Staff Roll aka Credits Theme from 1990-1992’s Super Mario World on the Super Nintendo.
