Keith Thompson is the author of The UFO Paradox: The Celestial and Symbolic World of Unidentified Aerial Phenomena. As a lifetime researcher of contact lore and a student of philosophy, psychology, and mythology, Keith Thompson is just the man for the job when it comes to wrapping our minds around these the strange reports of non-human intelligences & UAPs. Folding in depth psychology, Jungian archetypes, synchronicity, and the evidence of latent human superpowers, this episode goes a long way past the "little green men from Mars," trope, into the uncharted territory of the collective unconscious.

In the Plus+ Extension, we consider the myth of Proteus in the context of "the phenomena" and its shapeshifting manifestations, exploring the constructive & correlative elements of intelligence in general. We investigate why scientific empiricism is so antithetical to the fundamental novelty of contact, and continue pulling the Jungian thread to determine if the external world can truly be mapped by uncovering the depth of the human psyche.
