Our Strange Skies: UFOs Throughout History

On this episode of the Our Strange Skies podcast, we go into the past to find some early UFO sightings, pre-Roswell era stuff. We touch on Ezekiel's Biblical UFOs, the woodcut depiction of celestial phenomena over Nuremberg, Germany, and Basel, Switzerland. Then we dive into some of America's early sightings, including a potential failed alien abduction and one of America's first cattle mutilations. All this and more!

Stray Thoughts

  • I will never read this many accounts from other sources ever again. My tongue is tied!

Minisode One: The Eagle River Incident: Water for (Extra)terrestrial Pancakes

The Eagle River Incident may be the most fun close encounter of the third kind case in existence. Meet Joe Simonton, a sixty year old chicken farmer, who traded water for intergalactic pancakes.
Random Remarks

  • As crazy as this story sounds, I believe Joe. He's a really down to earth guy.
  • I mention Jacques Vallee. He is, what I would consider, part of the Mount Rushmore of UFO research, along with J Allen Hynek, John Keel, and Budd Hopkins.
