Aliens, Ghosts… and Our Vanishing Co-Host?!

Ricky’s missing. Lights. Woods. No texts back. So John taps guest host Drew while producer Matt rides shotgun as the guys launch the first episode under the new name—and dive straight into aliens, UFOs, and ghost stories (plus a Phoenix trip, a brutal round of golf, and bar trivia redemption). From frat-house sky zigzags to Starlink “train” sightings, abduction hot spots, and the eternal debate—haunted house overnight or alien abduction if you’re guaranteed to survive?—this one’s peak dad-brain curiosity with plenty of laughs, skepticism, and just enough creep factor to keep you listening. Highlights include: • Ricky’s mysterious disappearance — was he possibly abducted by aliens? • Starlink vs. real UFO sightings • Our favorite alien movies • More ghost stories and a creepy sleep paralysis moment • Another round of Can You Name ’Em — Alien & Ghost Edition • Alien abduction or night at a haunted house — what would you choose? Whether you’re into the paranormal, dad humor, or just love a wild story, this episode delivers.
