You're probably wondering what this episode is. This is one of my all-time favorite episodes from our friends over at the Alien Theorists Theorizing Podcast! When I'm not researching and creating new episodes of Somewhere in the Skies, I like to unwind with some comedy podcasts. And this is definitely one of those. But I can't quite give up the whole UFO thing either. So this is why I love listening to hosts, Zel, Braden, Andrew, and Dan as they navigate their way through the UFO muck to bring forth some of the most compelling cases, people, and theories in Ufology. Today, I'm dropping one of those episode in the feed so that you can hear these guys in action. I hope you enjoy, and I hope you'll consider subscribing to the Alien Theorists Theorizing podcast today!Episode summary: On September 23, 1980, UFO investigator Leonard Stringfield received a letter that claimed to be from a former military security guard who had witnessed a series of events that sounded like they had come straight out of a science-fiction double feature. Under the pseudonym James Morse, the author of the letter would begin a years long correspondence with Stringfield, that culminated in alleged documentation of military service members coming into direct and violent contact with an extraterrestrial. Morse claimed to have witnessed the final minutes of an unidentifiable creature that had reportedly been shot by security personnel on the grounds of Fort Dix in New Jersey. Morse’s claims would fall in line with a book released in 2019 by a military intelligence officer who claimed to have been stationed on that same base and said they had interviewed a number of personnel who were involved in the events of Jan 18, 1978. This case file, join the Theorists as they shoot first, shoot again, shoot one more time, start to ask questions, but then shoot a couple more times while discussing…The Fort Dix Xenocide!Follow Alien Theorists Theorizing at their Linktree: https://linktr.ee/alientheoristspodcastRyan is now on Cameo!

On episode 274 of SOMEWHERE IN THE SKIES, we are joined by United States Air Force veteran, and former employee of both Area 51 and Skinwalker Ranch, Christopher Bartel. Bartel runs us through his time at both of these highly mysterious locations and the things he witnessed and experienced while working there. Having worked for Robert Bigelow's BAASS for eight years, six of which were spent stationed at Skinwalker Ranch, Bartel created The Skinwalker Ranch Series, a series of landscape photographs taken from 2010 to 2016 that depict the ranch in its raw state, and also function as a visual memoir of the time he spent there. Bartel shares his documentation of the Native American connections to the ranch, and gives his honest thoughts on how the investigations were conducted. He also discusses the highly controversial question of whether it not he and others were used as "guinea pigs" to see how the ranch were affect them physically. It's a wide-ranging discussion with brutal honesty from someone who was there to try to uncover the secret of Skinwalker Ranch.Find all of Chris Bartel's work at: https://www.chrisbartel.com/View the entire Skinwalker Ranch portfolio at: https://www.skinwalkerranchportfolio.org/Ryan is now on Cameo!

On episode 268 of SOMEWHERE IN THE SKIES, we are unlocking one of our most listened to bonus episodes over on Patreon in which we speak with UFO researcher, David Marler. Marler is best known for his black triangle UFO work. However, in this exclusive interview, he shares a fascinating and terrifying case he's recently researched. In 1964 in Hobbs, New Mexico, Charles Keith Davis, a young boy at the time, noticed something strange in the sky that seemed to be getting closer. As it continued descending, Charles noticed a bright flame bursting from it. Soon, he was entirely engulfed in a fiery blaze and that was only the beginning! Marler walks is through the case and shares exclusive audio from the boy's grandmother who rescued him during the event, and exclusive audio from an interview he conducted with the witness almost sixty years after that harrowing day.
