  • Love and Saucers | The Bizarre Alien Encounters of David Huggins

    What happens when a man claims to have spent his entire life in contact with extraterrestrials, including an intimate relationship with an alien woman? Ryan welcomes filmmaker Brad Abrahams to discuss his documentary, Love and Saucers, which follows David Huggins, a 72-year-old artist who claims to have experienced hundreds of alien encounters throughout his life. Through surreal paintings, Huggins reveals a bizarre and deeply personal world few have ever seen.

  • Will the U.S. Midterms Help or Hurt UFO Disclosure?

    What does the future of UFO disclosure look like in the wake of the U.S. midterm elections? Ryan breaks down how shifting political power in Washington could impact congressional UFO hearings, whistleblower protections, and Trump's PURSUE initiative.


    Then, Ryan shares extraordinary firsthand UFO encounters from his bestselling book, Stories from Somewhere in the Skies. From a mysterious spinning craft over Scotland and a black triangle in England to unexplained lights over El Salvador and a massive diamond-shaped UFO witnessed by a former sheriff near North Dakota's nuclear installations, these accounts challenge what we think we know about our skies.

  • Incident 88

    Buried deep within the declassified Project Blue Book files lies a mysterious UFO case known only as “Incident 88.” What really happened, and why has this extraordinary case remained largely forgotten?


    In this classic episode, we welcome The Debrief contributing writer, the late Jazz Shaw, to uncover the startling details of his investigation, including his search for an elusive eyewitness who may hold the key to the mystery.


    We then revisit the remarkable 1994 Lake Michigan UFO sightings, exploring new evidence and a possible explanation for one of the most compelling and credible UFO encounters in American history.

  • Jay Stratton: Out of the Shadows

    Ryan takes a deep dive into Out of the Shadows, the new book from former Pentagon UFO investigator, Jay Stratton. From alleged recovered alien spacecraft and non-human bodies to secret reverse-engineering programs, encounters with extraterrestrial beings, and government cover-ups, Stratton makes some extraordinary claims. But does he provide the evidence to back them up, or does his book raise more questions than answers?


    We also examine new developments surrounding the alleged UFO luring operation at White Sands Missile Range, including claims of mysterious orbs and unreleased military footage. Plus, a former Army sniper shares a shocking story of U.S. soldiers allegedly battling reptilian beings near Area 51. Could these claims connect to David Grusch's recent revelations?


    We also pay tribute to Mario Woods, a former U.S. Air Force nuclear security officer, UFO witness, and past guest of the show, who sadly passed away this week.

  • Jacques Vallée: 60 Years of UFO Secrets, Science, and a Final Search for Truth

    Legendary UFO researcher and author Jacques Vallee returns to discuss his latest book, Forbidden Science 7: The Final Report, and the future of UFO research. Together, he and Ryan explore the realities of UFO disclosure, Vallee's ongoing analysis of mysterious materials with Dr. Garry Nolan, and the possible connections between consciousness and non-human intelligence. He also revisits the controversial Trinity UFO crash, the possibility that certain UFO crashes were deliberate, and why government revelations may raise more questions than answers. After more than six decades investigating the unexplained, Vallée reflects on his remarkable career, the mysteries that remain, and why the next generation of researchers may need to rethink everything they believe about UFOs.

  • The Birth of the Black-Eyed Kids | Brian Bethel’s Terrifying Encounter (SITS CLASSIC)

    In this episode of Somewhere in the Skies Classics, Ryan speaks with Brian Bethel, the man behind one of the earliest and most chilling accounts of the Black-Eyed Kids. In 1996, Bethel was sitting alone in his car in Abilene, Texas, when two young boys approached asking for a ride. Something about them filled him with overwhelming fear, then he saw their completely black eyes. Bethel recounts the terrifying encounter, how his story spread across the early internet and helped ignite the BEK phenomenon, and what he believes may lurk behind those dark, soulless eyes.
