On episode 145 of SOMEWHERE IN THE SKIES, Ryan is joined by filmmaker, Project Blue Book consultant, and professor, Paul Hynek. In this conversation, Paul talks about what it was like growing up in a home where UFOs were everyday conversation over the dinner table. We then hear all about his father's experiences working with the U.S. Air Force in their official investigation of UFOs; Project Blue Book. What does Paul think of how the History Channel television series has treated his father's life and career? And what memorable moments does he have from his father's extensive look in to some of the most famous UFO cases of all time?
