Our fellow weirdos, we have arrived!! And a day early, too! After months of preparation and laying out much of the background information needed to comprehend events, we're finally starting our review of Hellier! In this first part (of three) we look at the first five parts (so, all of Season 1). We dive into the aspects of the case that resonated most with us, dig a little deeper in some instances, and just enjoy the absolutely high strangeness of it all! Welcome, at long last, to Hellier!

Our #RoadToHellier has reached it's last stop before we get to town! This month, we're looking at the various methods of communication that you'll see employed in the documentary, plus a little extra we just find interesting. From the Estes Method to the God Helmet to the Frank's Box and back again, we're exploring the hows and some of the whys behind reaching out and connecting with the Phenomena.

WE ARE READY TO TRANSMIT! WE ARE READY TO TRANSMIT! This month our #RoadtoHellier pulls off to the side of the road to listen in to the Subspace Radio Network as we talk about the late Rev. Robert Short and his experiences channeling the Space Intelligence Korton! As wild as the story may seem, we do recognize that similar elements of Short's story (heh, short story...anyway!) appear in Hellier and in other experiences the Hellier team has had. So break out your copy of "I'm Forever Blowing Bubbles" and let's connect with Central Control!

We can’t properly navigate the #RoadtoHellier without taking a left at Exit 93 and looping our way into the underground. Deros, Teros, a quick pass through downtown Lemuria (be sure to check out the famous Rock Shop) to find ourselves in some serious liminal spaces. Whether Shaver was really whisked away to an underground wonderland where he became a hero and returned with a manifesto and evidence of an ancient mother language or whether it was the product of a mind wracked by grief, both possibilities cause us to wonder about the nature of liminal spaces (physical and non-physical) as well as what it means to have a paranormal experience. Buckle up and grab some road snacks because we're going deeper underground with the Shaver Mystery.

MOTHMAN! He's become the poster child for weirdness these days, but as part of our #RoadToHellier series, we take a look at the massive flap in Point Pleasant, West Virginia between 1966 and 1967. It becomes our launching point for a greater discussion of what the phenomena might be and what the purpose could be for 13 months of panicked fervor in a small town in West Virginia. Along the way, each of our brains totally melt as we try to connect dots and reason out the story of Mothman!

On the evening of November 2nd 1966, Woodrow Derenberger was driving home from his job selling stereos and repairing sewing machines when he was passed by and then stopped by a UFO. The person who stepped forth from that craft communicated telepathically and introduced himself as “Cold”. What proceeded to happen from that point forward is one of the strangest UFO flaps in the history of the phenomena. When Indrid Cold met Woody Derenberger is one of the biggest crossroads on our #RoadToHellier that we had to pull off the highway, put the van in park, and immerse ourselves in the very integral tale that kicked off the Year of the Garuda.

This month our #RoadtoHellier officially kicks off with a look at the Men in Black! These shadowy visitors have been around seemingly as long as the modern era of UFOlogy (perhaps longer, by some accounts)! But who are they? Government agents out to discredit witnesses? A secret government operating outside our own? Could they be, as Keel suggests, occupants of the UFOs themselves?! Join us this month as we explore tales of the Men in Black and being paving the way to talking about Hellier later this year!

The Loveland Frogman! Yes, folks, strange things were definitely afoot in 1955! The same year that brought us the Kelly-Hopkinsville goblins also brought us somewhat similar series of encounters in Loveland, Ohio (right next to the Little Miami River, no less). What was the Frogman? Was he really all that froggy? Why was he seen again in 1972 and during a sweet Pokemon Go sesh in 2016? We investigate all that and more this month as we discuss the Loveland Frogman!

The Future! That's right, friends, we are all interested in the future because that's where you and I are going to spend the rest of our lives! That famous line by The Amazing Criswell permeates our first episode of 2022! And what does the future hold? We're not sure, but we make some predictions and share listener predictions for the new year. We also take a close look at the 1968 book Criswell Predicts: From Now to the Year 2000! to see what he got right, got wrong, and actually got pretty close on!

Regardless of your thoughts about Bob Lazar's story of working at a secretive location inside of Area 51 (S-4), his influence on the pop culture of UFOlogy in undeniable. This month, we take a look at Bob Lazar's story because there's just enough there to make it believable and simultaneously just enough there to make it unbelievable. Seb identifies three avenues that he feels people haven't explored enough in the Lazar tale and together we at least try to find a theory that covers all the aspects of Bob Lazar!
