Probing Ancient Aliens
by Probing Ancient Aliens
The History Channel's Ancient Aliens is a divisive show, to say the least, but science (and sci-fi) obsessed nerds, Steve & Joey, are exploring each episode of everyone’s favorite show about Ancient Astronaut Theory with equal parts love and skepticism...as well as the quirky researchers and experts that evangelize it. What has mainstream science debunked about Ancient Aliens in the years since it premiered? And what mysterious aspects of humanity’s origins are still best explained by theorists like Georgios Tsoukalos, Erich von Daniken, and the rest of this passionate crew of explorers?
Episodes
-
Jacques Vallee: UFO Pioneer - S20E15
A tribute to the Magonia Man himself - this is more of a short tribute/documentary to Jacques Vallee, and we think Ancient Aliens is all the better for it. Maybe one of the most worthwhile episodes to watch in the last 5 seasons.
-
Contact in the Desert 2025 Review Discussion!
We recap Steve's recent trip to Contact in the Desert 2025! Is the show still worth attending? Will we be back next year? Did he end up almost shitting his pants the second half of the trip - tune in and find out!

Mysteries of Scotland - S20E9
We're back again - with a dip of a prolapsed anus into ol' Loch Ness, and the rest of wet, moist, damp, beautiful Scotland!
-
S20E7: Secrets of the Sumerians
We just couldn't stay away from Tsouks, Childress, and Von Daniken n'crew forever! We're checking back in with Ancient Aliens after a couple years off and many changes in our personal lives. How has the show evolved in our time away? How much deeper are the bacon canyons in the brows and cheeks…

-
Hungry for Skinwalker Ranch - S4E11: In the Heat of the Night
This episode is chock-full of experimental goodness and actually feels like the culmination of most of the experiments surrounding "the blob" that came before it! Plus: rockets, flamethrowers, and tesla guns...need we say more?
-
Hungry For Skinwalker Ranch - S4E10: A Frequency Occurence
"HUNGRY FOR SKINWALKER RANCH": presented by Probing Ancient Aliens! It’s all about acoustic portal-opening soundscapes this episode - a welcome change of pace from just shooting rockets into the sky (though there’s still a little of that too!) - especially since they use an indigenous band called...

-
Hungry For Skinwalker Ranch - S4E9: Something's Up
Last week we were jamming stuff in the ground around The Mesa, and this week - what else? - we're shootin' rockets and fireworks into the sky above The Mesa. It's a delicate, precise dance with Travis Taylor as he relies on his tried and true method of blowin' shit up and measuring the weird…
more -
Hungry For Skinwalker Ranch - S4E8: Between the Lines
"HUNGRY FOR SKINWALKER RANCH": presented by Probing Ancient Aliens! This episode asks us to read between the lines…but joke’s on them! We can’t even read! Only write! Regardless, this ep gives us more drilling, more drones, more diggin’, and more bones - everything a Skinwalker Rancher could ask...

Hungry For Skinwalker Ranch - S4E6: What a Mesa
Travis and the boys get drillin', and the the drill gets...nothin'? At least, not so far, though there is one weird phenomena happening here with the drill bit that can't be explained. Still, this episode feels like more filler, almost like this season is the Netflix season of Arrested…

-
Hungry for Skinwalker Ranch - S4E5: Here's The Drill
"HUNGRY FOR SKINWALKER RANCH": presented by Probing Ancient Aliens! We suspect that this is a true “filler” episode. The continuity and the editing is weird, and we never actually see any drilling! That being said, Thomas Winterton actually seems sober and awake, and they do have an interesting...
-
Hungry for Skinwalker Ranch - S4E4: The Watchers
"HUNGRY FOR SKINWALKER RANCH": presented by Probing Ancient Aliens! A bit of an aimless episode (literally) as a helicopter can’t seem to maintain control while driving through portal-infused airspace. There are NO ROCKETS - REPEAT: NOOOOO ROCKETS launched in this episode! BUT, the hunky ginger...

Probing Gaia: David Icke's "Escape the Matrix - the Illusion of Normal"
Do you like Icke? David Icke, that is! Gaia has seen fit to put the controversial and multi-banned mouthpiece on their streaming network, and giving him a platform to tell the story of his own reality, and all of reality. It's our first real exposure to the Icke-man (who cometh?), so please...

-
Probing Gaia: 'Bigfoot's Reflection'
This 2007 Bigfoot documentary is great if you're new to the world of the "hairy wild man" of the Pacific Northwest, and would be much more at home as an episode of Ancient Aliens or some other History/Travel/Discovery channel show. The logo IS pretty cool though, and I would be interested in a...

Probing Gaia: David Wilcock - 'Crop Circle Prophecies, 31680, and the New Jerusalem'
Wil-to-the-power-of-COCK is back baby! Old Five Heads at Freddies himself rears all five tanned, toothy faces here - with a seemingly failed perm, to boot - to discuss the quantum meanings behind crop circles, a very big arbitrary number that he says is the key to unlocking the “New Jerusalem,”…
more -
Probing Gaia: 'Mystery Teachings - Accessing the Quantum Gap' w/ Dr. Theresa Bullard
We dive back into the quantum realm with Ant-Man, the Wasp, Michael Douglas…and Dr. Theresa Bullard!

-
Probing Gaia: 'Crystals: Healing, Manifestation, and Alchemy'
We dive into the first two episodes of a brand new Gaia-exclusive series all about crystals! Being that crystals are the core symbol of the "new age" movement, we thought this series was a cool idea - but how much is actual scientifically researched fact, and how much is porn doctors trying to…

-
Probing Gaia: 'Consciousness Connection with Anthony Peake'
We go deep into the PEAKE of the current space of philosophic thought - Anthony Peake, that is! This 2014 appearance on a strange Gaia show hosted by a French woman named Lilou is a great introduction to the wide-ranging “Cheating the Ferryman” philosophy that Peake has created (and heavily...

Probing Gaia: 'Widsdom Teachings: Special Q&A with David Wilcock'
It’s been a while since we’ve seen ol’ “Five Heads at Freddy’s,” and we even get into the real story behind why he seemingly imploded in 2018 from his two biggest platforms (Gaia and Ancient Aliens). Hint: he thought Gaia was full of satan-worshippers and that Ancient Aliens supported pedophiles....

Probing Gaia: 'Gregg Braden: Neurons, Bones, and Robots - the Battle for our Humanness'
The Gaia network's very own "pseudo-Tsoukalos" is a geologist-turned-spiritualist, Gregg Braden. He's got the big hair, and talks a big game about the merging of science and spiritulality. This presentation from 2020's Conscious Life Expo goes over his premise that the human being is the most...
-
Probing Gaia - 'Ancient Civilizations' S1E2: Gnostic Origins
NEXT EPISODE: We dive head first into what, at first glance, seems like an Ancient Aliens clone on Gaia - but as we watched, we realized that this is the show that Ancient Aliens secretly wishes it could be, but is shackled by the need to constantly prove the ancient astronaut theory. This…

Probing Gaia - 'Mystery Teachings' S1E1 (and E5!)Consciousness in the Quantum Paradigm
We jump into the mind of Physicist and New Age Quantum Consciousness advocate, Dr. Theresa Bullard, in the first (and fifth, due to an error Joey made pasting the right link to Steve) episode of her show, Mystery Teachings. Each episode blends Quantum Theory with the nature of Consciousness and…

Probing Gaia - 'Billy Carson: Thoth and the Annunaki' (from 'Beyond Belief')
Billy Carson has a mouth on him - not the mouth of a sailor…but the mouth of diarrhea. It never ends. Put a microphone in front of him and he will overwhelm you with “facts” he’s gleaned from his “research” until your mind is too exhausted to question what’s true and what’s bullshit. That’s…where...

Probing Gaia - 'William Henry: AI, Technology, and the New Humanity' Review Discussion
William Henry (AKA “Medallion Man, AKA “Amulet Asshole”) is FIRED up at the Conscious Life Expo 2020, taking a vehement anti-AI and anti-Transhumanism stance in front of a crowd (maybe) 18 people! This is a side of ol’ Bill that we never see on Ancient Aliens, and from that standpoint alone this…

The Time Benders - S18E10
Our final episode covering Ancient Aliens (don't worry - we'll be covering many of the same people and expanded content on this same podcast feed where we cover the Gaia Network1) is a perfect example of why it's our last: zero new content from the minds of the Ancient Aliens writers and crew…
