The Saucer Life

We’re taking a quick break from the 1990s to break our no guests rule and ask five great writers/ thinkers/podcasters/pals about their favorite flying saucer story. I was able to spend some time with Tim Binnall, Greg Bishop, Walter Bosley, Micah Hanks, and Ryan Sprague, and at Esotericon in Halifax recently and got their pick for […]

It’s been a while since we’ve done one of these, so in this Encounter, I’m going to tell you about four books from the 1990s and tell you why you should read them. Revelations: Alien Contact and Human Deception by Jacques Vallee Alien Agenda by Jim Marrs Saucers of the Illuminati by Jim Keith Aliens […]

In this encounter we’re going to be looking at two very different interpretations of the meaning of these experiences from that decade. Note- I’m using some new equipment and haven’t quite got […]

Not to get all nostalgic, but that first season of The X-Files takes me back, I tell you what.

Coast to Coast AM’s obituary of Art Bell Whitley Strieber on […]

We’re finishing off Series 4 by increasing the pace of releases from every two weeks to every ten days or so. We think this will be sustainable, so hang on! Weekly would be ideal but, alas, our production team have day jobs… This time we look at notions of the hollow earth and their connections […]

I’m in Chicago, briefly, for stuff, so I thought I’d bring you a very brief Chicago-related saucer story from 2006. Website: saucerlife.com Twitter: @saucerlife Instagram: saucerlife Facebook

In this Encounter, we’re looking at a few examples of what was out there on the earlier, pre-www Internet. From jokey posts clearly not meant to be taken seriously, to intriguing supposed revelations of “the truth,” Usenet, and specialty networks like the Paranet BBS, many of use who are now fairly elderly, started our Saucer […]

In this installment, we’re looking at the theory that Marilyn Monroe was murdered to prevent her from revealing the truth about the government flying saucer cover-up! We’ve got a book, a questionable CIA document, some unquestionable State Department documents, and some very, very strained logic. Hang on! UFOs and the Murder of Marilyn Monroe by […]
