For our final week of June reruns, Kendra brings you the story of Travis Walton. Travis went missing for 5 days in the 1970s outside of Snowflake, Arizona. Seven of his coworkers witnessed Travis being struck by a light that was emitted from what they all believed was a flying saucer. When Travis showed back up several days later, disoriented but overall okay, he had a wild tale to share about his time onboard an alien spacecraft. His account would later be made into the 1980s movie Fire in the Sky. 

Listen now for all of the details on this alien abduction story and tune in next week for an all new episode from Jessica!
