  • Christopher Graybill and Adam Gorightly (sort of): Saucers, Spooks and Kooks: The Movie
    Mar 26 2026

    Howdy there - This week my guests are Christopher Graybill and Adam Gorightly! They join the show to discuss their fantastic new documentary, based off Gorightly's book. You guys, I LOVED this film. I've gushed about Adam's book a lot on the show, and this film is every bit as good. Without spoiling too much, this film delves in the misinformation/disinformation in the UFO scene from the early 80's into the present. Not only is this movie a blast, it's also very important if you care at all about the topic of UFOs. As I mention up top, Adam's internet connection quit on him, so the majority of this episode is just Christopher...which turned out to be a great opportunity to hear all of this from the filmmaker's perspective. Also, such a great guy. Enjoy!

  • David Metcalfe: The UFO Game
    Feb 25 2026

    HI there, friends! This week, David Metcalfe joins me for a good, old fashioned, deep deep deep dive in the UFO game. We get into the socio-cultural implications, how the phenomenon evolves, the mainstream normalization, narratives, trends, tricksterism, and much much more. David, to me, is one of the great modern minds when it comes to the topics we cover on this show. The only reason I waited to have him on, is that I wanted to be ready for him. I think I was, I hope. David is real gem - such an honor to have him on for this lengthy discussion. I hope you enjoy it as much as i did!

    Love, Steve
