It Gets Weird
Hey there friends and weirdos! This week we begin our exploration of an infamous text in ufology: Martin Cannon's "The Controllers." We've talked a lot in the past about the extraterrestrial hypothesis of UFOs, but what about a human hypothesis? This is where Cannon's book comes in: a paranoid, human-centric view of the UFO questions, starting with "alien implants." What Earth forces could be putting implants inside of abductees, and how? We discuss all this and much more!

It Gets Weird
Hey there friends and weirdos! This week we add a little entomology creamer into our New Age spiritual enlightenment coffee with the tale of...the Butterfly People. When a massive crop circle depicting the Vitruvian Man as a Butterfly Man pops up in the Netherlands, skeptics and believers alike are baffled. Was this design man-made, as the lying media would like to suggest? Or is it alien, perhaps even cosmic, in its design? We tie this event into a bizarre phenomenon that would occur only a few years later: the Butterfly People of Joplin. All this and much more!
