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

Our Strange Skies: UFOs Throughout History

12/29/20 • 10 min

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.
