Ep. 24 The Aurora Texas UFO

Alien and UFO Encounters Something was laid to rest in a small town cemetery in Aurora, Texas. In 1897, an “airship” collided with Judge Proctors’ windmill, exploding and throwing shards of molten Aluminum and Iron all across his property. A small, humanoid creature was pulled from the wreckage. Some say the body of the alien is still there, buried in the town cemetery.

Ep. 20 The Mystery of the Dyatlov Pass Pt.2

Unsolved Mystery When 9 hikers went missing in the winter of 1959, a search team was dispatched to the Ural Mountains. What they found baffled them. A tattered tent, and 9 bodies in various locations up to a mile away. What happened to these people? Some speculate UFO’s, others the Yeti. In part 2 Jason's power goes out and I try podcasting alone. I wrap up the story from part 1 and then dive into the theories surrounding the death of these hikers.
