#203 Is Santa evil?

Thursday Dec 21, 2023

The extraterrestrial comedy podcast where we probe whether Santa Claus is evil. Is Santa an evil alien? This one dates back to before the Common Era and is evidenced in the Bible itself (Jeremiah 7:31, Leviticus 18:21 and Isaiah 63: 2-3). We move from the Bible to modern pop music as we outline a trail of evil hidden in plain sight. Every time Santa did bad and was noticed, Santa changed their name and moved on! Amidst that, we reflect on Christmas past. Alongside this, it is asked… Is Stranger Things worth watching? Mr Moonwalker has yet to confirm that he’s watched Squid Game, either (just saying). Can children sense true evil, before they are corrupted by the world? All that and more on this week’s file. But more importantly, Merry Christmas, ya filthy animals! #probe

#202 Betz Sphere - Space Balls

Thursday Dec 14, 2023

The extraterrestrial comedy podcast where we probe the Betz Sphere. This metallic bowling ball turned up in Fort George Forman Grill Island in Florida in 1974. Was this sphere responsible for the fire that may or may not have burnt down the Betz’s house? Regardless, the life of the Betz family was thrown in to chaos as the media got hold of this story and sooner or later, Dr J. Allen Hynek got involved. The Navy also took a special interest. Would such bodies be interested if something fishy wasn’t going on? Alongside that this episode ponders Pogs. Do you folks remember Pogs? After the first couple of minutes folks may want to skip to about 10 minutes 30 seconds in because oh my that was a tangent… All that and more on this week’s file.

#201 Fargo Encounter of 1948 - George Gorman’s Grill

Thursday Dec 07, 2023

The extraterrestrial comedy podcast where we probe George Gorman’s 1948 cook-off in the sky. Whilst grilling, George Gorman saw a 6-8 inch blinking thing but George was mibbed off when he landed. On that note, how did George Gorman land? George Gorman you see, may have passed out due to the speeds he was travelling which were no match for the speeds of the blinking thing.

#200 Robert The Doll - World’s Most Haunted Doll

Thursday Nov 30, 2023

The extraterrestrial comedy podcast where we probe the most haunted doll in the world, the world famous Robert The Doll. This doll has about four origin stories and we cover the most likely as well as a few less verifiable. Regardless, this is one old and creepy looking thing that has allegedly messed with people for more than a century at time of recording in late 2023. It is said that Robert Eugene ‘Gene’ Otto always had an unhealthy relationship with Robert the Doll and indeed, the doll appears to have been cared for much like a human. Did Robert return that care? There have been hundreds of witnesses to the power of Robert and those powers continue to this day as less thoughtful, less considerate individuals visit Robert in his current residence and take photos of Robert, without asking for permission. Those same individuals can experience misery until they write to Robert The Doll, apologising. The episode covers theories to explain these incidents including a voodoo curse, demon, negative energy manifesting and pure simple bad luck. But is Robert really responsible for misery, injury, divorce and death? All that and more on this week’s file.

#199 Super-powered Psychic Tim Cullen, Invincible Ken and the Alien Implant - Tim-Slipping Timplant

Thursday Nov 23, 2023

The extraterrestrial comedy podcast where we probe the life and times of Tim Cullen, an allegedly true psychic who saw events before they happened and can definitely prove this. It all started on April Fools Day 1978 and went on past 1998 and possibly in to the 2000’s. But did Tim really have a kidney bean removed from his arm aka hand aka pet? How long does it take to be seen in the Hospital Accident and Emergency department? All that and more on this weeks file.

#198 Adlet - Half human, half dog, not the halves you’d expect

Thursday Nov 16, 2023

The extraterrestrial comedy podcast where we probe the ancient First Nation legend of the Adlet. This cryptid is half-human, half-dog and totally crazy. The creature originates from a dalliance between a lady and a dog and from there, it doesn’t get much better. Are these monsters friend or foe? Are Adlet deadly fighters or are they too distractible because some doggy needs simply can’t be silenced? Another possibility is that these things are mixed up with the legend of the Dogman and that of the Werewolf. Or perhaps all these creatures are the same thing? Mr Moonwalker tries to explain this one away but he simply can’t deny the FACTS. Alongside that, we ponder as to whether Mr Moonwalker would be the big spoon or the little spoon (we all know the answer). Do wolves get their butts out? All that and more on this week’s file.

#197 Stede Bonnet - Ghost of a Gentleman Pirate

Thursday Nov 09, 2023

The extraterrestrial comedy podcast where we probe the life and times and afterlife and after times of legendary Gentleman Pirate, Stede Bonnet. Stede is kind of renowned in the 2020’s as having been a bit of a cr*p pirate, but was Stede really that bad? We’ll find out for in this episode we will probe all that Stede got up to from his early life to Stede’s marriage, possible difficulties that Stede had going on as outlined by North Carolina Maritime Museum archaeologist David Moore and that nagging feeling that Stede had. The call of the seas, if you will. Stede would answer that call and we have lots of records of the booty-looting Stede got up to from that point onwards. Along the way, as we’ve covered before, Stede got a little help from his friends. Well, an allegedly true friend, if you will (again). A black bearded friend, if you will, will, will (again, again). But when the heat would be on, the fleet would be gone for that friend had a cunning plan. Stede does not appear to have been party to that plan. But what happened to Stede after that? Stede held a grudge and revenge prospers no person it would appear because two shakes of a Stede later, Stede would be begging for his own life. There may also have been a cunning escape somewhere along the line and this one was the stuff of movies. Ultimately though, Stede would succumb to a grizzly death and be left to roam the world… All that and more on this week’s file.

Thursday Nov 02, 2023

The extraterrestrial comedy podcast where we probe the 1975 extraterrestrial celestial unexplained healing of a future Councilwoman of the New Smyrna Beach area of Florida, Lynne Plaskett. Was Lynne visited by other world entities, or was Lynne looking for votes? Was this the result of an experimental drug, or an elaborate story to garner attention? All that and more on this weeks episode.
