  • Loving the Alien: Three Days in the Mirror World of Modern UFOlogy (w/ Eric Benson)

    Loving the Alien: Three Days in the Mirror World of Modern UFOlogy (w/ Eric Benson)
    Aug 24 2025
    We are joined by investigative reporter, writer, and podcast creator, Eric Benson. Benson is well-known for his hit podcasts, Project Unabom, Suspect, and Death County, PA. However, he recently dipped his toes into the murky waters of UFOlogy, having embedded himself in a UFO conference recently held at Rice University. In his fascinating long-form article for Baffler, titled, "Loving the Alien: Three Days in the Mirror World of UFOlogy, he describes his experiences at the "UFO and the Impossible" conference, where a diverse mix of scientists, experiencers, and spiritual seekers gathered to explore UFOs (or UAPs) through both empirical and mystical lenses. As Benson will discuss, he found the conference's blend of rigorous science, conspiratorial narratives, and deeply personal testimonies a bit unsettling, but nonetheless, compelling. This is no more apparent than when he meets Nancy, an artist who shared both skepticism and raw vulnerability. We break down the piece and where he stands today on the fascinating community we call "home."Read the article: https://thebaffler.com/latest/loving-the-alien-bensonFind Eric's work at: https://ericbensonwriter.com/Please take a moment to rate and review us on Spotify and Apple.Book Ryan on CAMEO at: https://bit.ly/3kwz3DOPatreon: http://www.patreon.com/somewhereskiesByMeACoffee: http://www.buymeacoffee.com/UFxzyzHOaQPayPal: sprague51@hotmail.comEmail: Ryan.Sprague51@gmail.comDiscord: https://discord.gg/NTkmuwyB4FBluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/ryansprague.bsky.socialTwitter: https://twitter.com/SomewhereSkiesInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/somewhereskiespod/Tik Tok: https://www.tiktok.com/@ryansprague51Order Ryan’s new book: https://a.co/d/4KNQnM4Order Ryan’s older book: https://amzn.to/3PmydYCStore: http://tee.pub/lic/ULZAy7IY12UProud member of SpectreVision Radio: https://www.spectrevision.com/podcastsRead Ryan’s articles at: https://medium.com/@ryan-sprague51Opening Theme Song by SeptembryoCopyright © 2025 Ryan Sprague.

    Just Another Tin Foil Hat | The Meridian Flying Machine
    Aug 21 2025

    Melvin Stevens, a truck driver for the Cook Truck Line, was on the road from Memphis, Tennessee to Meridian, Mississippi. Suddenly, up ahead, he saw a large silver, egg shaped object on the road in front of him. Thinking it was a weather balloon, he got out of the vehicle, only to be met by four strange men, coming out of the object.
