On episode 201 of SOMEWHERE IN THE SKIES, we are joined by author, Tea Krulos, to discuss his latest book, American Madness: The Story of the Phantom Patriot and How Conspiracy Theories Hijacked American Consciousness. Q-Anon. Fake News. Bohemian Grove. False flag attacks. Deep state. Crisis actors. Whatever Gate. Is any conspiracy worth the life of a believer? Richard McCaslin was a loner who wandered through life aimlessly. His only two interested were comic books and conspiracy theories. This led to his alter-ego, a conspiracy-busting super-hero, The Phantom Patriot. After learning of the elite meetings taking place at the Bohemian Grove, and the far-out rumors of satanic rituals and human sacrifice, McCaslin snuck in and attempted to burn it to the ground. And this is only the beginning of McCaslin's descent down the rabbit-hole of conspiracy theories fueled by the rhetoric of conspiracy theorists, Alex Jones and David Icke. How does this incredible story play in to the greater concerns of the conspiracy

On episode 197 of SOMEWHERE IN THE SKIES, we are joined by author and researcher, Paul Blake Smith, to discuss his new book, 'President Eisenhower's Close Encounters'. Did former U.S. President Dwight D. Eisenhower have a meeting, or several meetings, with extraterrestrials? It's been said that Eisenhower interrupted his vacation in Palm Springs, California, to make a secret nocturnal trip to nearby Edwards Air Force base to meet a race of human-like extraterrestrials who wanted to make a deal. But what exactly was that deal? Did Eisenhower go for it? What happened before, during, and after the meeting? And did any of this actually happen? Paul Blake Smith walks us through that tumultuous weekend where, on top of possibly meeting aliens, Eisenhower also had an emergency dental appointment, and was also declared dead by the Associated Press! No matter what the truth is, it was one hell of a weekend for the 34th President of the United States, and this is one hell of a convincing conversation about Eisenhower's

On episode 196 of SOMEWHERE IN THE SKIES, we are joined by first-time guests, Luis Elizondo and Sean Cahill. In 2017, the New York Times published a story that exposed a highly secretive Pentagon unit that studied UFOs. It was known as AATIP, The Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Program. It was directed by a man named Luis Elizondo, a former Special Agent and senior counterintelligence officer for the Department of Defense. After leaving the program, Elizondo helped facilitate the release of three videos taken by Navy pilots of unidentified aerial objects, which were officially released by the Department of Defense and acknowledged as genuine unknown aerial phenomena. One of the cases Elizondo investigated while in the Pentagon and one of the videos he would subsequently help release, was from an event known as the Nimitz UFO incident. For several days in November 2004, a Navy missile cruiser sailing around 100 miles off the coast of southern California detected strange radar signals emanating from an

On episode 195 of SOMEWHERE IN THE SKIES, we welcome Harvard Professor and astrophysicist, Avi Loeb. Loeb made international headlines in 2017 when a strange interstellar object passed through our solar system for the first time in recorded history. He published a controversial paper theorizing that this object, named 'Oumuamua (Hawaiian for "scout") could possibly have been a piece of advanced technology created by a distant alien civilization. He expands on these theories in a new book titled, Extraterrestrial: The First Sign of Intelligent Life Beyond Earth. Loeb discusses his theories and then dives deep in to the lack of wonder and risks in today's mainstream scientific community and what must change as we move forward in the ever-changing world and universe around us. It's an episode unlike any other and a conversation that lay somewhere in our interstellar skies.

On episode 194 of SOMEWHERE IN THE SKIES, Ryan welcomes return guest, Steven Greenstreet. Greenstreet is a news reporter for the NY Post and a freelance filmmaker. He hosts the popular NY Post web series, The Basement Office. Today, he shares with us some stunning evidence from the 2006 O'Hare Airport UFO incident that he obtained through the Freedom of Information Act. It was November 7th, 2006 when a United Airlines employee on the tarmac at Gate C17 at O'Hare Airport in Chicago. Suddenly, he noticed a dark grey metallic craft hovering below the cloud cover. He reported it to the tower, and suddenly dozens of people began witnessing the craft. The witnesses say it hovered for about five minutes before shooting upward, where it broke a hole in the clouds—enough that pilots and mechanics could see the blue sky. The news report became the most-read story on The Chicago Tribune’s website to that date and made international news. However, because the UFO was not seen on radar, the FAA called it a “weather phenom

He writes about UFOs and related defense issues on his website, Strategic Doubt.
