    Avi Loeb - Are Aliens Coming to Save Us?

    In this season finale, we’ve saved one of our best conversations for last! Join me, Lisa Camillo, anthropologist and filmmaker, as I sit down with world-renowned Harvard astrophysicist Professor Avi Loeb. We dive deep into the mysteries of the cosmos and ask the question on everyone's mind: Are aliens coming to save us? Professor Loeb discusses his groundbreaking research into Oumuamua—the mysterious interstellar object—and whether extraterrestrial life might already be out there. From alien spacecrafts possibly crashing into our oceans to the secrets of Area 51, we explore whether we might not be "attractive enough" for a visit from our galactic neighbors and how they could bring peace. Tune in for a thought-provoking (and otherworldly!) conversation as we wrap up Season 1 with a bang.
