Let's Do a Podcast About...The Known Unknown and Knowing (with Greg Eghigian)

In this episode of Let’s Do a Podcast About…, Winchester 7 speaks with historian and professor Greg Eghigian, author of After the Flying Saucers Came, about how societies respond to unusual ideas — and what those responses reveal about media, institutions, and belief. Shifting away from investigation and toward interpretation, this conversation explores how we make sense of uncertainty. From Cold War secrecy to modern cultural moments like major film releases, Greg examines the gap between disclosure and consensus, the role media plays in shaping legitimacy, and why debates around ambiguity often fluctuate between extremes of certainty. The discussion broadens into larger questions: • How institutions handle ambiguity • Why alternative narratives become compelling when official explanations feel incomplete • How emerging technologies like AI may accelerate interpretation faster than ever At its core, this episode asks: Why do these kind of unresolved questions hold our attention so strongly — and what does that say about human curiosity? 📘 After the Flying Saucers Came by Greg Eghigian: https://www.amazon.com/dp/0190869876 This is Let’s Do a Podcast About… The Known, Unknown, and Knowing.

Let's Do a Podcast About...UFOs (with Ron James of MUFON)

In this episode, Winchester 7 speaks with Ron James of MUFON about how UFO and UAP investigations actually work, how investigators distinguish between debunked claims and unresolved cases, and why some stories endure even when evidence remains incomplete. We discuss: What MUFON is and how UFO/UAP investigations are conducted The difference between unresolved cases and those that have been debunked Well-known controversies, hoaxes, and why some narratives refuse to disappear Government secrecy, public hearings, and the role of skepticism How media, pop culture, and sci-fi shape public expectations Why modern technology does not always produce clearer answers Where curiosity ends and belief begins How emerging tools, including AI, complicate investigation and interpretation   Ron also discusses his documentary work, including Accidental Truth: UFO Revelations, and his upcoming follow-up film, Accidental Truth: Next, which continues his exploration of evidence, testimony, and public discourse surrounding UFOs. This is a wide-ranging conversation focused less on definitive answers and more on how we ask questions when evidence is incomplete and curiosity runs ahead of certainty.
