    Are UFOs and alien life forms real or merely a distraction from the reality of our existence. It seems we here stories in the news on  consistent basis claiming evidence of UAP and alien contact. Are these stories just a distraction from the turmoil in the world today? You have to be the judge of this for yourself. AS for me, I firmly believe we are not alone in the universe. Music for this episode - Backplate by Joseph McDade - found at josephmcdade.com - please support him on his Patreon channel.

    What happens when we die? It's a question I have asked so many times in my life. There are as many varying views on this as there are stars in the sky. Ultimately it comes down to what you have been taught and accepted as your core truth. We all hope that our belief is the right and true understanding of what happens when we die. In the end we are all faced with an understanding that we are uncertain at best. Music for todays episode Halloween Pumpkin credits to Music: https://www.purple-planet.comBackplate - by Joseph McDade found at josephmcdade.com - music for your creations.
