For many, one incident brought the UFO topic into the mainstream and even over 70 years later, people can't get enough of it. Of course I am refering to the Roswell incident.

 

July 1947 saw strange reports hit the press, then an official retraction and it seemed the case died down until the late 1970s saw the case re-ignited, primarily by Jesse Marcel who had decided to come clean about the event to ease his concious. 

Since then hundreds of witnessses have come forward but what may surprise you is the number of celebrities, from actors and musicians to investigative journalists and royalty have all become obsessed with Roswell. 

Joining me to discuss his latest book, co-authored with Donald Schmidt is Thomas Carey who has spent years researching the Roswell incident. 

A noted investigator on Roswell, "Touched By Roswell - Crash Encounters of the Rich and Famous introduces us to over 100 notable individuals who all share an connection with that night back in July 1947.

Many of them will surprise you and Thomas and I discuss several of the celebrities he covers in the book and the Roswell case in general. 

A big thank you to Thomas for joining me this week.
