  • S2E4: UFO Skepticism Is the Real Fringe Theory
    Jul 2 2024

    Send us a Text Message.

    The logical argument that UFOs are non-human objects is extremely strong.

    The very short version goes like this:

    1. UFOs demonstrate advanced propulsion
    2. UFOs have been doing that for 80 years
    3. It's extremely unlikely that humans invented advanced propulsion in the 1940s
    4. It's extremely likely that UFOs are non-human

  • S2E1: NASA Panel Recommends Investigating UFOs
    Jun 1 2024

    Send us a Text Message.

    In September, 2023, the NASA UAP Independent Study Team released its report. They recommended that NASA investigate UAP, and made detailed proposals about how NASA can generate scientific advances on this topic.

    I found this report refreshingly rigorous. Some outlets covered it as a dismissal of the subject, but I read it as a roadmap to serious research.

  • S1E13: If UFOs Weren't NHI, What Else Would Have To Be True?
    May 27 2024

    Send us a Text Message.

    If UFOs aren't NHI, some other weird things must be happening. Given what we know is definitely true, we imagine the potential alternate explanations for UFOs, creature encounters, and coverup allegations. To cap it off, we use our trusty Occam's razor to cut through the chaos.

  • S1E12: 7 Assumptions UFO Skeptics Make
    May 27 2024

    Send us a Text Message.

    They don't teach UFOs in school, so most people don't know much about them. Because of that, most people make a series of assumptions about UFOs that aren't necessarily well-founded.
