Not Alone: Recent Episodes

Not Alone

Not Alone is a weekly podcast covering all things mysterious and unexplained. Your hosts, Sam and Jason, have been called 'the Siskel & Ebert of things strange', and others with interest in the paranormal saying that 'as a fellow believer in the weird, it's like coming home'. Join us as we reveal to you the hidden realm of the paranormal, nestled within the so called Real World. From stories you've never heard of, to ones you know by heart, we hope our variety of topics, from Curses to Cryptids to UFOS and back again, will provide something for the True Believer and Diehard Skeptic alike. And until next time, remember. We are Not Alone.

We hope you'll enjoy.

View Details

This week on the podcast we cover the direct lead up to the writing of the seminal work of Crowley's life, the foundation of his philosophical magical system, Thelema. It, of course, comes through being a completely extra weirdo who is obsessed with being the smartest one in the room, as we'll see. We hope you enjoy!

View Details

This week we start the true descent into madness as we being a nosedive towards Crowley's supposed career in Espionage, as he leaves the organization he fought so hard to be a part of (or to make parts out of) in order to sojourn on a brief vacation before getting down to the grueling business of writing scripture and constructing a religion. We hope you'll enjoy!

View Details

This week we examine the way that an institution that had been in place for over a decade suddenly seemed to self-destruct as soon as Crowley get his grubby little hands on it. The dissolution of the Golden Dawn kicks off Crowley's career as a world class Magician, and set the stage for all that would come after. But is it possible there was more at play than Blood, Sex, and Magic? Could there also be.........espionage? We hope you'll enjoy.

View Details

This week we examine the reincarnated Scottish Wizard King who served as mentor and magical master to Crowley in the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn, as well as dive pretty deeply into the practice of the Neophyte Initiation ritual, just so we all know what level of nerddom we're looking at here with these secret societies. We hope you'll enjoy!

View Details

View Details

This week we begin an expedition that will surely lead us nowhere but our own, hubristic doom. We begin to walk a lonely road, the only one that the Great Beast, had ever known. A road which leads directly to the Crowley Zone. We start our examination by casting an eye towards the wickedest baby the world has ever known, who grows into the wickedest young man the world has ever known, before turning into the wickedest college student the world has ever known, and along the way we learn a valuable lesson about labeling people and what it can lead to: a whole new way of doing Magick. We hope you'll enjoy!

View Details

This week we cover one of the most intriguing of all the First Peoples' legends, the Thunderbird. We explore it's legendary origins, and its significance as advocate and judge of humankind. Jason talks a whole lot about birds. We examine accounts of beasts with 20 foot wingspans, terrorizing the skies above Alaska. Jason talks a whole lot more about birds. A wonderful time was had by all. We hope you'll enjoy!

This week we return with another Jason Special. Jason shines his light of examination on tales of creepy crawly cave creatures, including one of the escape anthropomorphic nightmares from the 2019 movie Cats, something called a Grootslag, and eyeless, translucent horrors from the darkest places on earth. We hope you'll enjoy!

View Details

This week we examine the account of the Flatwoods Monster, surely one of the most shocking and intriguing events in ufology. What appears at first sight as an obvious case of hysteria begins to unravel when some of its loose threads are tugged on, revealing at last a fascinating, albeit convoluted, hypothesis: That the United States Government was and may still be at war with UFOs and their occupants. Our journey, which begins and ends in Braxton County, West Virginia, brings us face-to-face with the incredible and truly terrifying. We hope you'll enjoy.

This week we're revisiting one of the most popular phenomena of all time, the Mothman! We'll be exploring his antics over the last 50 or so years, starting in Russia and then settling back in the good old U.S. of A. From the dubious accounts of a great, 20 foot long black bird, flying through the smoke of Chernobyl, to the more credible omens before the beginning of a major war, to overseeing shipping operations in the Windy City, our boy has been popping in and out of the pages of history for quick some time now. We hope you'll enjoy!

This week we near the end of our series on the Miracle of the Sun by taking a look at the broader phenomena of which it is a part: Miracles and Marian Apparitions. We go as far back as we can, to before the death of Mary, to bring you tales of miraculous apparitions, from Egypt, Japan, Central America, and more. We also take a quick look at what a miracle is, how they work, and why they are so inherently connected with Sainthoood. We hope you enjoy!

This week, Sam and Jason return to cast a critical eye on the Fatima apparitions. Not as a side-effect of eye damage or mass hallucination, BUT RATHER as a UFO COVER-UP! Sam takes us through some of the discrepancies between the earliest reports of the apparitions and the later, so-called official versions, as well as examining some of the peripheral phenomena which occurred that could very well lend itself to an extra-or-ultra-terrestrial explanation! We hope you'll enjoy!

This week Sam and Jason get to the meat of the Miracle of the Sun, the actual occurrence itself. The day the sun danced in front of 70,000 people in a small Portuguese Village, healing those it came close to, and turning skeptics into believer. The aftermath, both inspiring and tragic. The theory that this all happened because people just looked at the sun for too long. All of this and so much more await.

For the first series of 2020, Sam and Jason are exploring the Miracle of the Sun, one of the most public displays of paranormal phenomena of the 20th century. We begin the story of the day the sun danced by examining the events that led up to the miracle, which was witnessed by some 70,000 people on the 13th of October, 1917. This is the tale of three young shepherds, who were given a powerful and terrifying secret by a beautiful apparition, and told to guard it with their lives. We hope you'll enjoy!

Our main source this episode were the memoirs of St. Lucia herself.

Another excellent source is the EWTN write-up of the apparitions, which was compiled as part of the 100th anniversary of the miracle.

At this most wonderful time of the year, we bring tidings of dread and joy. 

TL;DR

We are not going to be back in the month of December, but at the start of the year will return to providing weekly episodes on a variety of subjects, from Marian Apparitions to Missing 411, Secret Societies to A History of Witchcraft. Enjoy your holidays!

This week we wrap up our series on Alchemy with an exploration of the physical side of alchemy, led by Jason. We explore the way that, through the ages, the alchemist pioneered scientific process and experimentation. After looking at the historical figures involved with alchemy and how it has been accomplished in the modern day, we then turn our attention back in time, to a recipe called 'A Work of Saturn', and do our best to decode it, using the combined few dozen hours of research we have between the two of us. It does not go well. Regardless, we hope you'll enjoy in any case!

View Details

This week we dive deep into the hidden meaning that is layered in the emerald tablet, and talk about how it has served as a guide for those in search of that most elusive of all treasures: The Philosopher's Stone. Then, Sam goes off the deep end and yells for about 7 minutes. Then, we end the episode. Enjoy!

View Details

This week we start what very well could be the end of us, as Sam and Jason attempt to tackle the massive topic of Alchemy. In this first episode of the series, the emphasis is on context and place setting, with Sam taking us from the creation of the world to the fall of the Ptolemaic dynasty as we search for the truth behind Alchemy's most elusive and fundamental figure: Hermes Trismegistus. This melting pot of God and Man, Philosophy and Myth serves as our jumping off point as we dive into what may be the deepest rabbit hole yet. We hope you'll enjoy

This week we wrap up our coverage of the Betz Sphere with an examination of the many examinations that have been undertaken of the mysterious object. From the United States Naval to the National Enquirer, the orb has been the subject of scrutiny by a number of organizations. Where did it come from, and why is it here? Is it an alien artifact? A Doomsday Device? A Pokeball? While there are many questions that remain unanswered to this day, there is no doubt this is something more than a simple steel ball. 

View Details

This week Sam and Jason take a look at one of their weirdest subjects yet! Found unscorched in the remains of a land devouring inferno, the Betz Sphere has fascinated and bewildered skeptics and believers alike since it’s discovery. From autonomous movement which seems to defy the basic laws of physics, to possible attempts at advanced communication, the 8 inch, 22 pound perfectly round stainless steel sphere remains, to this day, an enigma. But what if where everyone is normally looking isn’t the right place to look at all? What other dark secrets may reside in the swamps that produced this haunting orb? We hope you’ll enjoy!

View Details

This week we go over the legend of the Wildman of China, or the Yeren, often thought to be a cousin to the North American Sasquatch. We chronicle it's legendary origins, admiring the monolith of Chinese Myth as we pass it by, and explore some of the accounts of it's salacious activities in years gone by, before turning our focus to the modern day. From Communist Party Secretaries to Peasant Cowherds, we tell the stories that have come out of the 20th century that cement the reality of the Wildman in the minds of the people of China. We hope you'll enjoy

This week we highlight a story from the recent release by friend of the show, Linda S. Godfrey. The book is titled 'I Know What I Saw: Modern-Day Encounters with Monsters of New Urban Legend and Ancient Lore' and our subject this week is just one of dozens of excellent stories that are catalogued within it. The Witchy Wolves of the Omer Plain are one part national tragedy, one part spirit guardian, and 100 percent regional folklore at its finest. However, there very well may be more than meets the eye when it comes to these ferocious Spiritual Beings which are said to haunt the graves of fallen warriors. We hope you'll enjoy.

Today we look back, reminiscing as friends and partners, over the first 100 episodes of this ridiculous podcast. We field a few questions, and go on a whole lot of tangents. Thanks for 101 excellent episodes. Here's looking to 101 more.

This week we conclude our two partner on Lunar Conspiracy with some of the most notable theories we've ever covered on the show. From attempting to open a channel of communication with a long dead God, to keeping the entirety of humankind under the thumb of our scaly overlords, and so much more, we present a veritable buffet of madness, in honor of that great big, lie in the sky, Moon. We hope you'll enjoy.

WE DID IT! We make it to episode number 100! Who would have guessed it? Not us. Not us. That's for darn sure. Thank you so much for everyone who has listened!

This week we're kicking off our Lunar Tales episodes with a critical, some may say exhaustive, look at the theory that Stanley Kubrick faked the moon landing. We examine the narrative of the faking, and then the revelation, to the world, that Kubrick tried to tell us all but we were too foolish to see. We'll point out waaaaay too many things about the Shining, and give you a walk through of film manipulation techniques, like front screen projection, as we try to explore why anyone would think that the moon landings weren't real to begin with, and then that Kubrick was the one to fake them. We hope you'll enjoy.

This week Jason, for the tenth time, takes command of the show to educate us all about the highly controversial document known as the Piri Reis map. This piece of cartography, which was produced in the 16th century, has been purported to show the coastline of Antartica as it would have appear without its ice cap, millions of years ago. This has lead to a number of speculations, regarding advanced civilizations surviving apocalypse level events and global ice ages, as well as a transmission of knowledge which goes back thousand of years. We hope you'll enjoy as we dive into the mystery that is the Piri Reis map!

View Details

This week we dive back into one of Sam's favorite subjects, Jewish mysticism, by way of one of its most fascinating and unique phenomena, The Golem. The clay man, who serves as the supernatural protector of the downtrodden Jews throughout the Diaspora, has long captivated the imagination of the public. We trace it's lineage through the Hebrew Bible, to the Talmud, and then examine it under the peculiar light of the dark ages and renaissance practices of Kabbalah. By the time we're done, we cover everything from Quentin Tarantino to King David. We hope you'll enjoy!

View Details

This week we wrap up our two-parter on Borley Rectory by examining the ongoing relationship between it and the grand-daddy of all Ghost Hunters, Harry Price! We start by diving into Price's long and impressive history of debunking suspicious spirits, slandering the good name of one of England's best known novelists along the way, then we turn our attention back to that blasted manor house, Borley Rectory. By examining Price's examination, and then the blowback that followed, and finally the Rectory's tragic, if fitting, demise, we put the whole thing to rest, then unceremoniously dig it back up with more cases of slander. We hope you'll enjoy!

View Details

This week we explore the history behind the most haunted house in all of England in our first episode on the historic Borley Rectory! From the 11th century building recorded on the site in the Domesday Book, to the stories of haunting that accompanied the generations of Priests who lived in the manor house throughout the 20th century, we'll be exploring the whole story of Monks, Nuns, Headless Horsemen, Disappearing and Reappearing Objects, and Psychic Writing in this location that has over 2,000 recorded instances of Poltergeist Activity. We hope you'll enjoy!

View Details

Today we look at one of the grosser and more unsettling phenomena we've ever turned our gaze towards, the Mongolian Death Worm! Often described as having the appearance of a long intestine overflowing with blood, whose movements are almost always characterized by 'writhing' or 'wriggling', it's no wonder we almost couldn't make it through this one. We'll take you on a grand adventure through time in the Gobi Desert, that funhouse of horrors deep in Mongolia. We'll explore the most important people connected with the Worm, this Olgoi-Khorkhoi, as we make our own expedition to get to the bottom of what's really going on around here. We hope you'll enjoy!

This week, Jason wrestles the microphone back for another of his excellent specials. The target of his scientific ire this time? Fairies. These ancient, ill-defined, intentionally vague creatures which seem to have somehow slipped into the modern world with alarming ease, sneaking in through our childhood and then hiding in the dark places, across the threshold of civilization, where the wild things lurk. Then Sam waxes a little too poetic about the interconnectedness of all things, Jason talks about King Arthur for much too short a time, and both agree that just because the creator of the most famous detective of all time thinks something is true doesn't mean you should trust him. Then, just like a midsummer's nights dream, it's all over. We hope you'll enjoy!

IT.

IS.

FINISHED.

Join Sam and Jason with special guest Rob (our very good friend and mortal enemy, respectively) as we wrap up the nightmare that is, was, and will forever be Edward Walters and the Gulf Breeze UFO sightings. We begin with Ed surrendering himself to be abducted, finally decided that if you can't shoot the spacecraft out of the sky, or shout expletives loud enough for it to hear you, ya might as well join them. Jason gives us a lesson on Manipulating Photographs, and Sam talks about the strangest thing to ever happen in Florida (and we know that's a big claim). We hope you'll enjoy!

View Details

This week we wrap up our series on MKUltra by taking a closer look at some of the less confirmable aspects of it, as well as examining why it ended up being shuttered. However, as we navigate stories of witches and psychics, warlocks and warlords, killing machines and hypnotic assassins, it's important that we ask ourselves one last question: Is Ultra over and done with? Or has it just, yet again, changed its name and gone underground, waiting to be exposed as the unbelievable stories of those on the fringes of society are finally validated as true? We may never know. But one thing is for sure: We're sure done talking about it. We hope you'll enjoy!

View Details

This week we begin our deep dive into one of the most shocking and controversial things the United States government has ever been PROVEN to do. Project MKULTRA has become a by-word for conspiracy, cover-up, and fun times LSD testing that only sometimes ends up inadvertently banishing you to the NIGHTMARE REALM FOR THE REST OF YOUR LIFE. While the significance of ULTRA has been downplayed over the last 5 decades, Sam and Jason are here to remind you that people are the absolute worst monsters of them all. Hands down. Wolfmen do not even come close. We begin our journey with collaborated, confirmed reports, and plan to move steady in a downward spiral into complete and total madness over the next few weeks, so stay tuned. We hope you'll enjoy.

This week Jason finally gets to talk to us all about the dangers of eating bread as Sam walks us through 10 days in 1951 when a small village in Southern France lost its collective mind. Join us as we explore tales of people shifting into monsters, grown men believing they were dragonflies, and dogs attacking the invisible. The entire town of Pont-Saint-Esprit found itself beset by visions of serpents and devils, fire and death, hell itself, and when it did, it may or may not have provided valuable information to a certain government agency that is probably listening to us all right now. We hope you'll enjoy.

This week we round out 2018 on the podcast with an in-depth examination of the not so Christian origins of Christmas by Jason and an attempt to revive the lost art of telling Ghost Stories round Christmas Time by Sam. We've so loved having this year with you all, and cannot wait to see what the next one brings. We hope you've enjoyed it as much has we have.

This is it. After all we've gone through, after all we've done, it arrives here. The incredible story of Orfeo Angelucci, the most surprising of all accounts, a truly unique tale which takes us not only far into space and the future of mankind, but also shines a light on our civilizations long forgotten past and origins in places and times much different than our fragile, corrupted planet earth. Here we will see the clearest example of the space brothers, our elder siblings in space-time, shepherding us into the destiny we had long forgotten, to take our place among the perfect, incorruptible masters of the universe. We hope you'll enjoy.

This week we continue our look into the ET Contactees with an episode all about one of the most influential members of its exclusive group, a man without whom the public perception of UFOs and those who study them may be drastically different. George Van Tassel changed the world in his own way on a hot desert night back in 1953, molding the future and providing fundamental ideas and practices not only to ufology, but to a whole group of other people as well. He stands as one of the prophets of the ETs, the establisher of one of the very first UFO religions, and a voice, calling from deep within the Mojave, beckoning us to join him on his wild voyage to worlds unknown. We hope you'll enjoy

Hello! Welcome to Part 3a of our series on the effects that ufology had on the Cold War, and that the Cold War had on ufology. This week we look at some of the first ufologists, members of an exclusive group known as Contactees, mere mortal men who were gifted the ability to save the planet, if only the planet would listen to them. Like the prophets of old, they have been rejected, reviled and mocked by the very people they came to save, and even now their messages cannot even be repeated without an air of levity and laughter. But....what if they were right? These are the stories of Daniel Fry and George Adamski, two of the four men we'll be examining as we do our best to make sense of the Extra-Terrestrial Gospel.

This week we explore two sightings during the Cold War era, foreshadowing things to come either good or bad, and one man's lifelong quest to uncover the truth behind how humanity has survived this long, and what, exactly, our guardian angels have in mind for us next. We'll look on both sides of the iron curtain, with tales of aliens, astronauts, and angels, as we ask the question, what exactly stopped us from blowing each other off the face of the planet? As always, we hope you'll enjoy.

View Details

This week we present the first in our three part series about Extra-Terrestrial interference during the Cold War. Each week will be focused on a different aspect of the Cold War, the first being the arms race. We explore stories from both sides of the iron curtain regarding nuclear weapons being interfered with by forces from beyond this world. Sometimes, the missions appear benign, observational but without any apparent agenda. Other accounts have decidedly more drama, as one might expect with the fate of the world hanging in the balance, and Armageddon around every corner, as even our most secure facilities appear to be at the whim of something beyond our understanding. From Moscow to Washington and back again, we hope you'll enjoy.

This week we reference the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise a record number of times, and in order to do so we turn an eye towards the second best nautically themed legend of all time (the first of course being Captain Jack Sparrow and his rowdy gang of misfits) THE FLYING DUTCHMAN! From Wagner to Spongebob and back again we take a look at the legends origins, how it was solidified into the public consciousness, and finally the shocking true encounters of the dreaded phantom ship on the high seas.

In this episode we explore the many different problems that you, our lovely listener friends, have gone through in your life. And man, some of them are intense. Some of them are funny.

Happy Halloween!

Join us as we reach PEAK derailment discussing the final fate of the Dybbuk box and how it involves on of our favorite musicians, a talented young whippersnapper named Post Malone and a guy who puts WAAAAAAAAAY too much gel in his hair. We also cover the supernatural origin of the box, or better said the entity which resides within it to this day. Racist Nazis, Pop Stars, and more intersect in the most surprising ways that no one could have anticipated. We hope you'll enjoy.

View Details

This week we explore the folklore of the Dybbuk, a unique entity in Hebrew Mysticism, a disembodied human soul too wicked to be allowed to enter the afterlife, but unable to find refuge in this mortal plane. They seek a home in the bodies of unwitting victims, a parasite of the soul, whether human or animal. However, if needs be, they may take up place in something else. Some sort of a inorganic vessel, an object that can house the evil soul until a new host becomes available. In a story that starts before the second world war and continues even now, cursing pop stars and penniless immigrants alike, we see the Dybbuk moving even in this day. We hope you'll enjoy.

This week, Sam becomes the very thing he swore to destroy as he irrationally and angrily denies the Mandela Effect. Also, we learn what Deja Vu ACTUALLY is and have a brief discussion on Parallel Universes and why they probably can't be used to explain away everything.

View Details

This week we dive into one of the most insane and also most compelling accounts of alien contact to grace the modern age. Beyond a simple light in the sky, or even a full blown extra-terrestrial kidnapping, Ed and Frances Walters experienced, over the course of years, repeated contact with what must be acknowledged as just the worst the Aliens had to offer. Bungled abductions, photographic confirmation, and a grand total of over 20 different encounters with the same entities have turned the Gulf Breeze UFO case into one of the most enduring and interesting of our time.

View Details

This week we conclude our series on the Jinn of legend by examining stories of their interactions with humans throughout the ages. Starting in classical Arabia, winding our way through the war on terror, and finally ending our journey at an oasis, a haunted outpost in the unforgiving heat of the desert, we will examine how the stories of the Jinn have in some ways changed with the times, and how in other ways they have, terrifyingly, stayed the same. We hope you’ll enjoy

View Details

This week we explore the lore and legend associated with one of the most unique magical beings of all time, the Jinn, or Genie as many of us know it as. We will explore it's origin in pre-islamic arabia, its codification as truth in the Quran, and it's transformation into the big, blue, vessel for Robin William's soul that we know it to be today. We hope you'll enjoy!

View Details

This week we cover an obscure bit of Californian Folklore, the Dark Watchers. Listen as Sam asks Jason if he's familiar with all sorts of Californian things, and the two of them bond over the atrocities of John Steinbeck, while trying to get to the bottom of stories that have to do with human shadows, unaccompanied by humans, living in the mountains of Big Sur. We hope you'll enjoy!

This week in the thrilling conclusion to our series on Project Pegasus, wrapping up our second 'Conspiracy Jason Just Doesn't Get', we examine the good lawyer/future president's claim that he and Barack Obama have more in common than the presidency. The red planet has often found itself at the center of crazy conspiracy theories worth their weight in untraceable, sequentially numbered bills, and this is no exception. Join us as we explore the TRUTH ABOUT MARS

This week we reprise the wickedly popular format, Conspiracies Jason Just Doesn't Get! This time, we take too close of a look at Project Pegasus, the top secret time travel project built upon the work of Nikola Tesla and Father Ernetti, developed by DARPA in order to give the United States a leg up in the time-space age which began in 1970. We'll explore stories of presidential conspiracy, assassination, and shoe mischief! We hope you enjoy!

View Details

This week we focus on one of the most enduring, albeit it improbable, of all modern myths, that of Father Ernetti and the Chronovisor! Join us as we dive into the rich tapestry of mystery which surrounds the supposed invention of a device that can be used for a variety of purposes, from removing the faith in faith-based religious systems, to enforcing  universal dictatorships which could enslave us all at the drop of a hat. We'll cover the story, the evidence, and the major players in this temporal tragedy! We hope you'll enjoy!

This week we cover one of the most convincing, corroborated accounts of an Extra-Terrestrial Encounter that the world has to offer. 62 witnesses, all claiming to see the same thing at the same time, verified to be telling the truth, as best they could, by one of the foremost psychoanalysts of the late 20th century. Stories of ecological doom, technological Armageddon, and specific references to other lesser known alien abductee and contactee symptoms and shared trauma. And whaddya know? Jason still doesn't believe a word of it. But you can't really blame him. Zimbabwe here we come!

This week we explore the insane world of UFHs, Unidentified Flying Humanoids, and literal real life witches in the skies over Mexico. One of the most well documented paranormal phenomena, dozens of videos and photo evidence have been documented to show everything from little strange dots to full blown winged, supernatural beings, fluttering about in the sky. From there, we move forward to examine the eyewitness accounts and trace evidence cases of real-life witches menacing members of law enforcement as well as the general public. It is truly amazing stuff.

This week we return to a topic touched on in earlier episodes, one that gives Sam the absolute spooks and Jason a bad case of sleep paralysis. The folklore surrounding the Skinwalker, the evil entity of First Nations belief, is as chilling as it is resilient. To this day, stories of Skinwalker Encounters come in fresh, and Sam and Jason are going to do your best to teach you some things to be on the lookout when wandering alone at night.

As always, he explains there is nothing to fear but fear itself, and moves us from the Fox Sisters of the 19th century through to the present day. He also introduces one of the show's new catchphrases. We hope you enjoy!

Today, that wish is granted, with great pain. Sam takes Jason through the theory of Reptilian Control, starting with the least crazy aspects and dialing it up as we go. On this, the first of two episodes, we'll be taking you through the origins of the Reptilian Conspiracy theory, and examining the framework of belief that has lead millions of people into thinking literal giant lizard people are controlling everything we see and experience.

Join us today as we explore one of the most enduring legends of all time, the curse of the tomb of Tutankhamen. Stricken from the records of Egyptian Royalty, Tutankhamen and his family was hidden beneath the sands of Egypt for over 3000 years before finally being uncovered in 1922. It is the most significant archaeological find of the 20th century, but sometimes what seems like a blessing turns out to be something else entirely. We catalogue the improbably true story of a curse that has captured the public imagination since day one. We hope you enjoy this chilling story of magic, tragedy and murder.

Tonight, we explore the 'British Roswell', the incidents that occurred in the dense woods of Rendlesham Forest, between December 26th to 28th 1980. One of the most well documented UFO cases in modern history, with evidence from the most credible witnesses, including a Lieutenant Colonel and two Military Policemen stationed at a Royal Airforce Base, supposedly housing the largest stockpile of nuclear weapons in Europe, during the tenuous Cold War. What starts as a simple UFO sighting reveals itself as a massive cover-up by the US and UK governments, and with the help of a hypnotic regression and direct downloads into a human brain, may reveal where we, as a species, are headed.

Show Notes, Episode One We did it! Welcome to the first episode of the Not Alone podcast. We decided to start ourselves off with a pretty widespread topic: Ghosts and Apparitions! Join us as we take a look through history at unexplained apparitions, starting with the Biblical story of Saul and Samuel, moving on to the civil war and everyone's favorite president, and ending in the modern day with some more contemporary stories. Our interview focuses especially on the phenomena of Crisis Apparitions, detailing the fascinating experiences of Michelle, a close friend, who has had more than a few close calls with the mysterious herself. We hope you enjoy it, and if you do let us know! You can find us on Facebook, twitter, and instagram, just by searching Not Alone Podcast, or find links to those pages at NotAlonePodcast.com, under the Follow the Pod! section. The intro music was created by Sam Fredrickson. He is deeply sorry for it.
