Oddly enough, it was at the exact same point in time. Which led us down a path of discovering the layers of the UFO and abduction phenomenon. We were fascinated that such an experience caused us to keep a secret from each other, without knowing the other was going through the same high strangeness. That further sent us down the rabbit hole of realizing the effects this phenomenon can have on a person's mind, body, and soul. That was the catalyst for starting our podcast. We are on a mission to further normalize the subject. We joke around, get side tracked by songs, may be inappropriate, but we are informative and educated on the entire ufo subject. Ultimately we are just keeping it real. If this sounds like your vibe, come vibe in our tribe.
