Fireside Chats: Linda Napolitano Revisited

This week, we’re sitting down to discuss a series of videos released by Carol Rainey, the wife of Budd Hopkins, that has had a massive impact on our view of the Linda Napolitano abduction case. Linda Napolitano was a simple New York housewife, at least until November 30, 1989, when in the middle of the night she was abducted by aliens and made to float above the Manhattan sky until she entered a UFO. Believe it or not, events only get stranger from there! Information revealed during Carol Rainey’s documentation of interactions between Linda and Budd made things much clearer to us. Join us as we try to make sense of this tangle of bizarre incidents. Campfire: Tales of the Strange and Unsettling is created for adult audiences only. The content and discussion in this show will necessarily engage with various accounts that include violence, anxiety, fear, and occasional body horror. Much of it will be emotionally and intellectually challenging to engage with. We will flag especially graphic or intense content so as to never put you in an uninformed or unprepared position. We will do our best to make this a space where we can engage bravely, empathetically, and thoughtfully with difficult content every week.  This week’s episode includes the following sensitive content:None Check it out! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nCsBPbRXnmY&t=182s https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5iBFES2Frv0 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ovSKRuc2tGY&t=695s  Support Us on Patreon:https://www.patreon.com/campfiretalesofthestrangeandunsettling Satisfy All of Your Merch Needshttps://www.teepublic.com/stores/campfire-tales-of-the-strange-and-unsettling?ref_id=25702 Join the conversation on social media atwww.campfirepodcastnetwork.com  Discord: https://discord.gg/43CPN3rz Instagram:instagram.com/campfire.tales.podcast GoodPods:https://goodpods.app.link/T0qvGnXnplb Twitter:www.twitter.com/campfiretotsau  Facebook:www.facebook.com/campfire.tales.podcast Visit Our Linktree for Any and All Campfire Info: https://linktr.ee/Campfirepodcast Special Thanks: Gregg Martin for music contributions!
