Podcasts about close encounters

1989: Bob Lazar brought UFO tourism to the quaint town of Rachel, Nevada. 2022: An Area 51 researcher in Rachel was raided by the FBI. NOW, this quaint town is back in the news.

In this episode of Investigate Earth, we sit down with Brittani and Sheri to hear their first-hand experiences with orbs, UFOs, and unexplained encounters that challenge everything we think we know about reality. Brittani shares chilling stories of strange lights and feelings she can't quite explain — are they visitors from another dimension, or something more sinister? Sheri opens up about her own encounters and the questions they've left her with about good, evil, and what might be watching us from beyond. Are these mysterious phenomena harmless glimpses into other realms… or signs of something darker? Join us as we explore the possibilities — interdimensional beings, spiritual entities, or even evil forces hiding in plain sight.Check out our merchandise: https://investigateearthstore.com

Don't Whistle at Night welcomes Benjamin Smith Date: July 6th, 2025 EP: 11 Topic: Benjamin will be discussing his close encounters with a lizard, man, witchcraft, and Bigfoot! About Our Guest: Benjamin Smith is an experienced Navajo bow hunter and resident. He is no stranger to the highly strange events and occurrences which encompass The Navajo Nation. Benjamin has had a close call with a Lizard man, witchcraft encounters and a very personal “ up way too close “ encounter with a Bigfoot. He is an active team member of Álílee Na'alkaah .

A 16th-century witch hunter believed each person is caught between a guardian angel and their own personal demon — one who knows their deepest habits and weaknesses — and he mapped out the seven princes of Hell who rule over humanity's sins.Join the DARKNESS SYNDICATE: https://weirddarkness.com/syndicateIN THIS EPISODE: You might have heard someone say during a severe storm, “it's raining cats and dogs out there!” Of course, it wasn't really raining felines and Fidos. But there have been instances of it raining frogs and fish. But did you hear about the time when for two-weeks straight it rained rocks and stones? (Raining Rocks, Storming Stones) *** In the film “Close Encounters of the Third Kind” the ending… sorry, spoiler here, but it has been since 1977 so you have had plenty of time to see it… at the end of the film, the aliens drop off dozens of humans that they've abducted over the years, and then welcome a volunteer human to leave with them – like an extraterrestrial foreign exchange student program. It's a fascinating concept, an extremely well-written premise for the film… but could that actually happen? Better question… has it already happened? (The Zeta Reticuli and Project Serpo) *** It could be argued that while William H. Bonney, better known as Billy the Kid, was a real person in history – that his story is more legend than fact. But then, being a notorious outlaw, pretending to die, and convincing everyone you are dead – then living out the rest of your life until you were an old man… that does probably deserve the label of “legend'. Is that story the fact… or is it fiction? (The Billy The Kid Conspiracy) *** Stories of giant, winged predators in the sky streaking down and attacking children and even full-grown men have been around since… well… ever. Some don't believe it possible, but if you do a Google search for “man-eating bird” you'll quickly find out they were not only real – but alive not that long ago. Or, perhaps… still soaring the skies, looking for their next meal… especially in and around New England. (Man-Eating Thunderbirds of New England) *** We've all heard of guardian angels – the idea that each one of us has a personal, supernatural protector following us at all times, battling for our souls to keep us from spiritual harm, if not physical. But if that's true – could we also each have a personal demon as well? A being also battling for our souls to send us to hell? One famous witch hunter believed exactly that.

Two of the most well known and documented cases of Close Encounters of the 2nd Kind... The Socorro Incident and The Rendlesham Forest Incident

From the dawn of time, man has been fascinated by the stars and what — or more importantly, who — is out there. Unsurprisingly, from the dawn of filmmaking, Hollywood has been also been fascinated by visiting (and visitors from) other worlds. One of the earliest silent films, A Trip to the Moon, was about shooting astronauts to the moon (using a cannon) and the alien creatures they find. There are countless movies about aliens and here are four I think you should watch.Close Encounters of the Third Kind (1977)Roy Neary's life is turned upside-down after having a close encounter with a UFO. After being tormented by visions and a need to know more, Roy meets others experiencing the same thing and travels to Devil's Tower in Wyoming where Roy, the government, and the aliens all arrive for a monumental concert. Directed by Steven Spielberg and starring Richard Dreyfuss, Teri Garr, and Melinda Dillion, Close Encounters of the Third Kind is one of the greatest films about alien encounters ever made. A must watch, no matter what planet you're from.Starcrash (1978)Hot on the heels of 1977's Star Wars came a wave of films “influenced” by George Lucas's masterpiece. In Starcrash, a smuggler and her alien sidekick go on a mission to rescue a prince from an evil character with a gigantic space weapon that can destroy planets. Sound familiar? Did I mention the alien sidekick uses a lightsaber? Perhaps “influenced” is too light of a word. Starcrash is not the best space opera of all time, but it's an interesting time capsule from 1978; one of many movies that also took place in a galaxy far, far away. Starcrash features great sets, a goofy plot… and David Hasselhoff. The Last Starfighter (1984)Alex Rogan wants nothing more than to escape his small town and that opportunity presents itself after he beats the world record on an arcade game called The Last Starfighter. The arcade game is actually a recruiting tool, and before long a shifty alien named Centauri arrives to take Alex to space where he will become a Starfighter — for real! Featuring (then) groundbreaking CGI, lots of alien action, and the final theatrical performance of Robert Preston.Naked Space/Spaceship/The Creature Wasn't Nice (1981)No matter what name you see this movie under, they're all the same… and none of them are good! This “horror/comedy” that loosely parodies Alien stars Leslie Nielson, Cindy Williams, Gerrit Graham, Patrick Macnee, and (writer/director) Bruce Kimmel. After exploring a newly discovered planet, the crew of the Spaceship Vertigo bring a small organism (goo) on board that quickly grows into a large monster. When Dr. Stark figures out a way to connect the monster's brain to the ship's computer, they are able for the first time to hear the monster's thoughts. And boy, is that monster hungry…Movies about aliens and outer space are always fun summer viewing. Rent one of these films and pop an extra bucket of popcorn, just in case someone from “out there” stops by to join you.Thanks for reading Video Store Podcast!

Tonight on Veritas our special guest is Trey Hudson, director of the Anomalous Studies and Observation Group and guardian of a hidden clearing whispered about as “the South's Skinwalker Ranch.” Picture this: you push through a wall of pine needles, the moon erased, your breath loud in your ears. The forest suddenly drops away and you step into a meadow so silent it feels unplugged. No insects, no wind, only a charged hush. Without warning a cube of crimson light blinks on ten feet above the grass. There is no lamp, no shadow. You raise a thermal scope that should blaze white, yet the teammates standing beside you have vanished from the screen. Two endless minutes crawl by before they fade back in, insisting they never moved. That was the first night. Since then Trey's team of soldiers, medics, and physicists has logged hundreds of anomalies. Plasma spheres drifting like watchful lanterns. A midnight visitor in a tailored suit stepping from the trees to demand an escort down a one-way track. Radios that spit phrases in forgotten tongues. One teammate who, on thermal video, briefly transformed into a globe of light and then returned to flesh. To confront the unknown the group carries contact plaques modeled on NASA probes, practices Close Encounter of the Fifth Kind meditation, and trains in military remote viewing. More than once they have awakened with the words “Nox Magbee,” said to mean kin of the night goddess, echoing in their minds. Is this meadow a doorway, a mirror, or bait? Why does it echo the notorious ranch in Utah yet hide beneath the Mason–Dixon line? And what happens when human curiosity meets something that can rewrite time itself? Tonight we crack open the Meadow diaries, shadow Trey Hudson into the unknown, and ask if we are pushing the frontier, or trespassing on ground already claimed by something waiting in the dark.

Two very important Close Encounters experiences... Kenneth Arnold, who coined the term "flying saucer" and the well documented Lubbock Lights.

This episode originally broadcast on May 22, 2025. The original podcast post is here: https://pixelatedgeek.com/2025/05/binary-system-podcast-458-wtnv-268-home-office-and-love-death-and-robots/In this week's recap, Steve Carlsberg is fitting into his job at Labyrinth as well as can be expected. By which we mean he's working himself to death, losing connection with his family, and his attempts at corporate team-building are not appreciated. It's a grim state of affairs, and don't even get us started on the food situation in Night Vale. (Short summary: there isn't any.)And speaking of grim, we watched four episodes of the latest season of Love, Death, and Robots. We don't mean grim as in bad; all four episodes are shining examples of their craft and downright dazzling (even "Close Encounters of the Mini Kind", which is hilarious and really mean-spirited.) But the ending to one of them was...something. And it led to a brief discussion about one of the hazards of pet ownership. Probably nothing to worry about, but go ahead and make sure you have enough pet food, and someone to do regular welfare checks, and everything should be fine. Probably.This week's outro is a clip from TeknoAXE's Robot Chomp, and I swear I didn't realize how appropriate that title is for one of the Love, Death, and Robot episodes until after I'd already downloaded it. The "Spider Rose" episode is based on a short story by Bruce Sterling, who created the Mechanist/Shaper universe that this and "Swarm" is set in.Turns out that yes, the poet in the episode "For He Can Creep" is based on a real Victorian poet who died in debtor's prison. Damn, we can't get away from grim topics this week, can we?Found it! The story Kathryn was thinking of with the windows was Higglety Pigglety Pop or There Must Be More To Life. It is indeed by Maurice Sendak, and it's still just as beautiful and creepy as we remembered.Looking for a present for that hard-to-shop-for person?

More rain likely today…looks like sometime around 11am it should start coming down. We began the morning with the latest news on Iran, a story about a music festival where over 150 people in the crowd were poked by a needle, road buckles in Wisconsin, a new date for a human trafficking trial, and the Wisconsin Supreme Court's ruling on PFAs. In sports, the Brewers beat the Pirates last night, Aaron Rodgers confirms that this is likely his final season in the NFL, ESPN announced this year's host of the ESPY Awards, the Celtics made another trade of a high-profile player, and the sale of the Timberwolves is official! Elsewhere in sports, Khris Middleton is getting PAID, a bettor wagered $8 million on the NBA Finals, and Tyrese Haliburton posted an update after surgery. We let you know what's on TV today/tonight, we talked about some of the things you shouldn't keep next to your bed, and we had a couple of feel-good stories about a UPS driver who got to say goodbye to a couple of dogs on his route, and a parasailer who saved a kayaker's life! A few "Did You Know" stories…including one about Elon's money and another about Close Encounters. In today's "Friggin' Sports", a runner had a bit of a wardrobe malfunction. And during today's edition of "Bad News with Happy Music", we had stories about a guy who got stuck in a chimney, an update on the Looney Tunes guy, a #FloridaMan who shot at a customer in his convenience store when they complained about the price of beer, a snake that got into a power substation and caused a blackout, and a kid in Thailand who got some strippers at his graduation.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this episode, two of Justin's close-range UFO encounters are shared. The first took place during a quiet evening on the front porch of his home, when he looked up to see a large, disc-shaped craft hovering low over the neighborhood. It moved slowly, completely silent, with a ring of white lights underneath and a strange, circuit-like texture across its surface. The second encounter happened a few years later. While riding as a passenger in his sister's car, Justin witnessed an enormous triangular craft drifting just above the treetops. Despite its massive size, it moved slowly and silently. Both sightings left a lasting impression on Justin. But first, before we hear from Justin, we have two voice submissions sent in from Ben in the UK and Bob in the US.More information on this episode on the podcast website:https://ufochroniclespodcast.com/ep-339-the-georgia-skies/Hidden Cults (Promo)It is a documentary-style podcast that digs deep into the world's most extreme, elusive, and explosive fringe groups.

Send us a textClose Encounters of the Absurd Kind! (And Joe's Alien Adventures)This week on The Wednesday Night Podcast, we're setting our sights on the stars as we feature the iconic soundtrack to Close Encounters of the Third Kind. Get ready for some classic John Williams orchestral swells, chilling alien communication, and maybe a sudden urge to sculpt mashed potatoes.But forget the government cover-ups, because the real mystery begins when Joe takes the mic! Inspired by the film's otherworldly vibes, Joe dives deep into his own, shall we say, highly questionable alien encounters. Did he see a UFO? Was it just a really bright drone? Did he accidentally wander into a highly organized backyard barbeque? The lines between reality and... other-reality blur quicker than a spaceship doing warp speed.Prepare for speculative theories, wild anecdotes, and enough chaos to make even the most seasoned Ufologist question everything. Will we finally get to the bottom of Joe's extraterrestrial experiences? Or will he just leave us with more questions than answers (and possibly a craving for Reese's Pieces)? Tune in to find out!#WednesdayNightPodcast #CloseEncounters #AlienEncounters #UFO #JohnWilliams #SciFi #Podcast #ComedyPodcast #ChaosEnsues #BelieveItOrNotwebsite: actonmusicproject.comemail: music@actonmusicproject.comCraig's phone number: ‪(978) 310-1613‬

Joining me for this episode is returning guest Susan Demeter. Susan is a Canadian born author, artist, and witch. The themes of her writing, research and art incorporate a lifelong interest in exceptional human experiences, UFOs, nature, social history, mysteries, and magic. She was previously a guest back in 2021 for episode 62 of Some Other Sphere, where we discussed her book Cosmic Witch: Magic Witchcraft and the Supernatural. This time around, Susan joined me to talk about a recent paper she has written about three roads in Ontario, Canada which each have haunted reputations. The paper explores the paranormal history of these places—Mississauga's Trail, Texas Road, and Buck Hill Road—both through her first-hand observations and research of primary and secondary sources. I begin the interview by talking with Susan about what drew her to this subject matter and her own unusual experiences when visiting Mississauga's Trail. From there the conversation opens out to cover the other two sites included in the paper and consider why some roads seem to attract paranormal phenomena.  We discuss the symbolism present in some of the folklore and otherworldly beings connected to the roads, their role as both practical , imaginal and mythic spaces, the relationship between people and nature and what that all might indicate about the nature of our reality. You can find out more about Susan and her writing at https://susandemeter.wordpress.com/.

On June 6th, 2025, the Wall Street Journal released an article titled The Pentagon Disinformation That Fueled America's UFO Mythology: U.S. military fabricated evidence of alien technology and allowed rumors to fester to cover up real secret-weapons programs. On June 11th, 2025, the New York Post followed that article up with an eerily similar video titled BOMBSHELL: Pentagon created fake UFO evidence, promoted false alien stories.Links:

"We read in the book of Genesis, called Bersheit in Hebrew, that ""Enoch walked with God; and he was not, for God took him"" (Genesis 5:24). In this 14 part series, Rabbi shows how Enoch's experience of walking with God and being taken into His presence, is a symbol and a prophetic type, of God's relationship to us. Rabbi Schneider teaches and brings revelation on how we can more closely ""walk with God and ascend in His presence""." **** BECOME A MONTHLY PARTNER - https://djj.show/YTAPartner **** DONATE - https://djj.show/YTADonate   Visit our website at DiscoveringTheJewishJesus.com
