The Men in Black { M.I.B }
In this episode we examine the possible existence of the Men in Black. No, not Will Smith and Tommy Lee Jones in sleek black suits delivering alien babies in the back seats of cars and turning ‘bad’ aliens into goo. For decades, people have reported encounters with strange men in black after having an extraterrestrial run-in. These secretive agents’ question, control, and even threaten their victims to keep them from sharing their stories. Are these agents’ other conspiracy-theorists? Merely figments of their imagination? Or are they the real Men in Black?
