  • The Strange Case of Dr. X: UFOs and "Miracle" Healings

    Though we tend to think of "miraculous" healings as the domain of religious miracle workers, a number of UFO witnesses claim to have been spontaneously healed during or after their sightings. By examining these kinds of anomalous effects on witnesses, we probably won't learn where UFOs come from, but we may explain what they are doing here.

  • Medieval UFOs​? The Story of the "Flying Ship" over Ireland

    You may have heard reference to a story told by the 13th-century cleric, Gervase of Tilbury, about a flying ship dropping its anchor in a churchyard, and the ensuing struggle between one of its sailors and the assembled crowd. There are actually many different versions of this story dating back to the middle of the 8th century CE, and together, they tell us a great deal about Medieval cosmology, and they even shed light on the modern UFO phenomenon.

  • UFO Disclosure? Part 1 - Tom DeLonge and AATIP
    A number of fans have asked me my opinion on the recent news around UFOs, and the apparent moves towards UFO disclosure on the part of the US government. I have been extremely skeptical of this “disclosure” campaign from the start, and I think it’s important that students of ufology take a critical look at these developments, and challenge some of the narratives presented. To this end, I’ve decided to do a two-part series on the disclosure campaigns of the 21st century, and how they’re not what they appear to be.
    This is the first of these podcasts, covering the work of Tom DeLonge and To The Stars Academy, as well as the revelation of the AATIP program.
    Special thanks to Robbie Graham for reviewing an earlier draft of this narration. Robbie is an indispensable voice in ufology, and he currently runs August Night Books, which has published some excellent titles in anomalistics.

  • "Foo Fighters" of World War II
    While the US government created the world's first government office to address the UFO question only after Kenneth Arnold's famous sighting in the summer of 1947, it was far from the first time that US officials had been forced to contend with UFO reports. Throughout the Second World War, Allied and German pilots frequently encountered fast-moving balls of light and other strange phenomena over Europe, the Mediterranean, and the South Pacific. The large volume of reports make it abundantly clear that the UFO phenomenon preceded the summer of the flying saucer, and suggest that the US government may have known more than they let on in the wake of Arnold's sighting.

  • Travis Walton Abduction, 1975
    There is probably no case of alien abduction more widely known than that of Travis Walton, a 22-year-old logger from Snowflake, AZ. Travis's case includes a number of details that strongly suggest at the involvement of extraterrestrial beings; but it also has some similarities to older accounts of "abduction" in other times and places.

  • The Mysteries of the Great Pyramid of Giza
    The Great Pyramid of Giza in Egypt is the only one of the seven wonders of the ancient world to survive to the present day, and it remains a marvel of design and execution. Despite this, however, we know very little about its origins, or the purpose of its many peculiar features. Egyptologists generally agree that it was built as a Pharaoh’s tomb, but specialists from a variety of different disciplines have shown it to be vastly more complex than other pyramids, and very different from other tombs, suggesting that it may have had some other function altogether.

  • DMT and Entity Encounters
    Long dismissed as hallucinations, the beings that people see on DMT are attracting more and more scientific interest. These beings, and the ways that they behave, are strikingly similar to those encountered by "alien" abductees, and even biblical prophets.

    People today think of fairies as little winged pixie girls, but this is not how those who saw them in history typically described them. The Reverend Robert Kirk wrote a treatise on the fairy people as they were known in the Scottish lowlands, and offers us a more evidence-based description of these elusive creatures.
