Are we being visited by aliens? Are there craft in our skies that perform manoeuvres beyond human technology? Do people get abducted by ETs?

My mission is to investigate all things that are part of the wider the UFO phenomena. Each week I look into a different aspect of this fascinating field and go in depth into the evidence that is all around us. I am looking at UFO sightings, alien abduction, historic cases and other related phenomena. I interview researchers in the field and people who have had very real experiences.

    Extra Episode | UFO and Paranormal Experiences

    Extra Episode | UFO and Paranormal Experiences

    In this episode I am talking to Leigh Thatcher about his book 'Distant Machines'.

    Distant Machines is the biography of Leigh Thatcher's varied and obscure UFO and paranormal experiences, from a childhood UFO encounter-to a reoccurring abduction nightmare-to his adult life where he's experienced  communication with a biological UFO, which proves the link between the UFO phenomena and crop circles. 
    There's something for everyone in this book who has an interest in all things Paranormal; Light anomalies, UFOs,  chemtrails, synchronicity, ghosts, remote viewing and a possible fairy-but that's for you to decided.
    Leigh's biography will take you on a journey through his turbulent childhood growing up in the 80's-setting the scene for his first encounter at the age of ten. His chaotic upbringing paves the way for more sightings and communication with UFOs as an adult, which concludes with Leigh trying to make sense of what he's experienced. 
    Leigh has been interviewed many times for radio and podcasts regarding his encounters and has been a guest speaker at the UFO academy conference in Watford, England back in 2014 . He's conducted many lectures on his experiences to both UFO and paranormal groups and has also run his own Remote Viewing group. Leigh also runs a UFO/Paranormal Facebook group, set-up to encourage others to come forward to tell their stories.
     
    Bio
    Leigh was born in south east London and moved to Birmingham at the age of fourteen. Having had a UFO encounter when he was ten, he developed an avid interest in the subject. In 2012 all manner of supernatural occurrences took place which set him further on a journey of discovery, trying to piece together what was unfolding.

    The CIA, Army Intelligence and Psychic Spies

    The CIA, Army Intelligence and Psychic Spies

    This week I am talking to Jeffrey Mishlove and Russell Targ about their book 'Russell Targ: Ninety Years of Remote Viewing, ESP, and Timeless Awareness'.

    A childhood magician, raconteur, laser pioneer, physicist, parapsychologist, and psychic spy, Russell Targ has enjoyed an illustrious career spanning more than six decades. Now in his ninetieth year, Russell is still active and his work in consciousness research and extra sensory perception is more relevant than ever.
    Along with physicist Harold Puthoff, Targ created the now famous remote viewing program at Stanford Research Institute (SRI). The psychic intelligence-gathering program known as Grill flame, Stargate (and other names) was funded by the CIA and other US government agencies for 23 years, and brought ESP research into the mainstream, much to the dismay of materialist scientists.
    Those findings convinced him of the reality of non-dualism and he became a practicing Buddhist.
    This book dialogues 15 conversations with Jeffrey Mishlove, the veteran parapsychologist and host of the New Thinking Allowed YouTube channel, in which they delve into remote viewing by military intelligence, precognitive dreaming, ESP, and much, much more.

    Jeffrey Bio
    New Thinking Allowed host, Jeffrey Mishlove, PhD, is author of The Roots of Consciousness, Psi Development Systems, The PK Man, and the New Thinking Allowed Dialogues series: Is There Life After Death? UFOs and UAP: Are we Really Alone? and Russell Targ: Ninety Years of Remote Viewing, ESP, and Timeless Awareness. He is the recipient of the only doctoral diploma in the world from an accredited university that says, “Parapsychology.” It was awarded from the University of California, Berkeley, in 1980. He is also the Grand Prize winner of the Bigelow Institute essay competition regarding postmortem survival of human consciousness.

    Russell Bio
    Russell Targ is a physicist and author who has devoted much of his professional career to the research of the human capacity for psychic ability. In 1972, he co-founded the Stanford Research Institute's federally-funded program that investigated psychic abilities in humans. The program provided invaluable information and techniques to various government intelligence agencies, including the DIA, the CIA, NASA, and Army Intelligence. In his ten years with the program, Targ co-published his findings in some of the most prestigious scientific journals. He is the co-author, with Jane Katra, of five books about psychic abilities, two of which are: Miracles of Mind: Exploring Non-local Consciousness & Spiritual Healing, and The Heart of the Mind: How to Experience God Without Belief (both New World Library.). Targ was also quite active in the development of the laser and its various applications, having written over fifty articles on advanced laser research. He is a Senior Member of the Institute of Electrical Engineers and has received two NASA awards for inventions and contributions in laser and laser communications. Recently retiring from his position as senior staff scientist at Lockheed Martin, Targ now devotes his time to ESP research and offering workshops on remote viewing and spiritual healing. He lives in Palo Alto, California.

    UFO Encounters Ep37 | The ETs Healed Her Longterm Illness

    UFO Encounters Ep37 | The ETs Healed Her Longterm Illness

    This week I'm reading from Kathleen Marden's book 'Forbidden Knowledge: A Personal Journey from Alien Abduction to Spiritual Transformation'.

    Kathleen Marden's amazing life as the niece of Betty and Barney Hill, the first scientifically investigated case of alien abduction, sent her on a lifelong search for answers. Her extensive investigation of their events developed into a career as a respected UFO investigator, researcher, author, and leader in her field. She has devoted years to investigation, research, and experimentation always following the evidence wherever it led and sharing her findings with her readers.

    In 1991, she joined the Mutual UFO Network, the world's largest civilian investigative organization. Her active involvement led to twenty years of volunteerism at a national level. As the Founder of MUFON's Experiencer Resource Team, she and her fellow investigators enabled thousands of UFO abductees and experiencers of contact with nonhumans to confidentially speak of their often troubling experiences with compassionate, knowledgeable, nonjudgmental listeners.
    Her collaboration on three major studies of nearly five thousand people who believe they have experienced nonhuman contact generated new insight into the commonalities shared by these participants in a mystifying alternate reality.

    When she discovered information that transcended the limits of conservative Ufology the information she possessed was no longer acceptable to self-appointed gatekeepers who sought to control the narrative. However, the investigation of unexplained phenomena is legitimate in a free and open society, and you the reader deserve access to the truth. This is her story.

    Bio
    Kathleen Marden is a researcher, author, on camera expert, conference presenter, experiencer advocate, hypnosis practitioner and support group facilitator. She is known as one of the leading UFO contact researchers of our time. Since 1990, she has researched the perplexing nature of UFOs and the non-human entities associated with highly advanced aerial vehicles via her own groundbreaking research, investigation, and experimentation. Her research has extended to archival collections and the US government’s involvement in the investigation of UFOs and its major studies. This has combined to give her a depth of knowledge that few possess. She is the 2013 recipient of MUFON's "Researcher of the Year" award and the 2021 recipient of the International UFO Congress "Lifetime Achievement Award".

    She earned a B.A. degree in social work and was employed as an educator and education services coordinator while attending graduate school. She is a certified practitioner of regression hypnosis and the Quantum Healing Hypnosis Technique. She has worked on three social research studies, on experiencers of ET contact, two with Ph.D. social scientists. Additionally, she offers the Awakening Souls support group for experiencers who feel an intense calling to be part of the answer and to assist others who are beginning to awaken to their relationship with Non-human intelligence.

    Her interest in UFOs and contact began in 1961, when her aunt and uncle, Betty and Barney Hill had a close encounter and subsequent abduction in New Hampshire’s White Mountains. She spent fifteen years in painstaking investigation of the Hill abduction case and continues to seek the scientific analysis of the compelling evidence.

    Her bestseller with nuclear physicist Stanton T. Friedman (1934-2019) is “Captured! The Betty and Barney Hill UFO Experience”. She and Stanton worked together for nearly 14 years and collaborated on two additional books “Science Was Wrong” and “Fact, Fiction, and Flying Saucers”. Her book with Denise Stoner “The Alien Abduction Files” includes her investigation of six intergenerational cases of abduction/contact. Her fifth book “Extra Terrestrial Contact: What to Do When You’ve Been Abducted” is a...

    UFO Encounters Ep35 | Triangular and Boomerang UFOs

    UFO Encounters Ep35 | Triangular and Boomerang UFOs

    This week I'm reading from Lisey Clarkson's book 'Ordinary People and UFOs: A Memoir of Contact'.

    Having experienced over a dozen encounters with craft not of this world, Lisey Clarkson is now compelled to share these startling events as the topic emerges to the foreground of public acceptability.
    At times witnessed by her two daughters, she outlines how the silent observers were mostly present during mental disciplines, to which she critically attributes their timely appearances.
    Explicit details of their varying sizes, materials, agility, and ability to appear on cue, are explored alongside tumultuous life experiences to provide an analysis of what was so worthy of observing.
    Determined to deliver vivid accounts of close encounters with UFOs, she does not apologise for her honest inclusion of occasional coarse language, and sometimes uncomfortable situations that precipitated the desire to challenge her mind.
    This book is about – and for – ordinary people, all of whom have something extraordinary in their design.
    Bio
    Lisey was a high school teacher and has experienced UFO phenomena her whole life.

Kobayashi ,

Best produced show on the topic

Simon actually reads the authors book(s), actively listens to what they are saying and asks appropriate follow-up questions. He demonstrates a genuine curiosity in the topic. He shares his own experiences and observations with guests but generally doesn’t overly interject too much of himself during an interview, allowing the interviewee to fully express themselves. It’s truly a revelation.

Autjor ,

Meh

Like some other reviewers mentioned, the host almost exclusively interviews authors about their books. I’ve noticed that most of the paranormal podcasts start strong and eventually devolve into these inteviews, it honestly feels like all the good stories get covered early and then the rest is blah…feels like little to no effort on production? I really appreciate podcasts like ‘spooked’ because of the effort they put into the story…I’ll still subscribe and listen though, I love all things paranormal!

Best interviews and best podcast on this subject I have yet to find. Absolutely a must listen to.
