This week, Charlamagne Tha God and Andrew Schulz dives deep (pun intended) into the world of UFOs, unexplained aerial phenomena (UAPs), and the possibility of alien encounters. From childhood sightings to government conspiracy theories, they question it all—why Jersey, why now, and what’s with the probes? The classic Brilliant Idiots banter is back as they explore what could unite humanity: aliens or nukes? They also tackle the philosophical question of what extraterrestrials might find fascinating about Earth—doodoo?
