Copyright ©2026, Weird Darkness.Originally aired: May 06, 2024This episode of Weird Darkness moves chronologically through ten of history's most frequently cited UFO encounters, opening with a 1947 debris field on a New Mexico ranch and closing with a 2004 Navy radar encounter off the California coast.In July 1947, rancher William "Mac" Brazel discovers unusual metallic debris scattered across the Foster homestead north of Roswell, New Mexico, and reports it to Sheriff George Wilcox, who alerts the Roswell Army Air Field. Intelligence officer Major Jesse Marcel collects the material, and on July 8th the RAAF issues a press release announcing the recovery of a "flying disc." The story runs in newspapers nationwide before General Roger Ramey holds a press conference the next day identifying the debris as a weather balloon. The retraction does little to end the speculation; decades later, ufologists raise claims of recovered alien bodies and a government cover-up, and in 1994 the Air Force publishes "Case Closed: Final Report on the Roswell Crash," attributing the debris to the classified high-altitude balloon program Project Mogul.From there, the episode moves to April 6th, 1966, when more than two hundred students, teachers, and residents near Westall High School in the Melbourne suburb of Westall, Australia, watch a gray, saucer-shaped craft descend, hover for roughly twenty minutes, and shoot skyward at high speed after a second object appears to intercept it. Students who walk into the nearby field known as The Grange afterward find circular patches of flattened grass. Australian authorities attribute the sighting to a weather balloon, an explanation many witnesses reject, and researcher Shane Ryan later interviews dozens of them for the documentary "Westall '66: A Suburban UFO Mystery."Next comes the Pascagoula Abduction: shipyard coworkers Charles Hickson and Calvin Parker are fishing on the Pascagoula River in Mississippi on the night of October 11th, 1973, when a whirring oval craft with flashing lights hovers roughly forty feet above them and three robotic, wrinkled-skinned beings pull them aboard for what they describe as a twenty-minute physical examination. The men report the encounter to the local sheriff's office, which secretly records their conversation while leaving them alone in a room, capturing Hickson's visible distress rather than any hint of a hoax. Both men pass polygraph tests and undergo hypnosis, and UFO researchers J. Allen Hynek and James Harder investigate the case and find no evidence of fabrication.A similar pattern surfaces three years later in Maine, where twin brothers Jack and Jim Weiner and fellow art students Chuck Rak and Charlie Foltz are camping on Eagle Lake in the Allagash wilderness in August 1976 when a glowing orb appears to follow their canoe. After Charlie Foltz signals it with a flashlight, the light expands and engulfs the group, and the men find themselves back at a campsite fire that has burned down to embers with no memory of the intervening time. Years later, recurring nightmares send the four men to psychiatrist and UFO researcher Dr. Raymond Fowler, whose hypnotic regression sessions produce matching accounts of grey-alien medical examinations aboard a craft, a story that eventually reaches national audiences through "Unsolved Mysteries" and multiple books.Military personnel take center

Our guest on this week's episode is Maxime Darmet, senior economist at Allianz Trade. One week ago here in the U.S., we saw former trade tariffs expiring and a host of new tariffs being slapped on most of our trading partners. These new tariffs are attempting to tie these countries to not doing enough to prevent forced labor in the production of their products, though those allegations are extremely hard to prove. Our guest shares about these new tariffs, their impacts to our supply chains, and he compares them to previous tariffs. We also look at how business margins have been affected by the various tariffs of the past year and a half.We cover a lot of cool technology for logistics and one of the most space-age is the idea of delivering parcels with flying autonomous drones. This week, we saw two new advances in drone delivery. One for small items and one for large items.More warehouses are implementing automated packaging solutions these days—and as they do, they are demanding a higher level of collaboration with equipment vendors. The trend reflects a growing demand for automated packaging systems that easily integrate with existing warehouse automation systems—and that signals a shift in the way many vendors are approaching the market.Articles and resources mentioned in this episode:Allianz TradeArmy drone delivers cargo in autonomous demoFederal regulators approve DoorDash plan for drone deliveryFinding the right fitVisit DC VelocityVisit Supply Chain XchangeSend feedback about this podcast to podcast@agilebme.com

Tired of generic corporate flight simulators? Step inside an incredible labour of love in the Cheshire countryside at the 744 Experience, where real sections of the retired British Airways "Queen of the Skies" have been meticulously resurrected. Witness a standard simulator transformed by advanced engineering and 7km of wiring, allowing aviation fans to operate authentic, functional aircraft hardware linked to custom software networks. Sam sits down with founder Dan Chang to discuss the wild journey of rescuing pieces of aviation history from scrapyards before they were crushed. From a single passenger window to a fully responsive flight simulator complex complete with functioning plumbing, Dan shares the logistical nightmares, the passion of his engineering team, and what it feels like to win the 2026 Tourism Award for a project that never had a business plan. KEY TAKEAWAYS Born out of a pandemic hobby that escalated from buying a single cockpit window, this project rescued two fuselages before they were crushed at St Athan. Unlike standard flat-screen simulators, this custom build relies on SimStack IO boards and 7 kilometers of complex wiring to interface real aircraft hardware with flight training software. Built with no formal business plan, the overarching goal of the facility is to promote aviation heritage and share the magic of the "Queen of the Skies" with standard enthusiasts, not purely for commercial gain. The experience maps multiple consumer interests by pairing standard flight sessions with bespoke first-class cabin dining events, mimicking classic international routes.

In this Somewhere in the Skies classic, we revisit one of ufology's most enduring mysteries: the alleged meetings between President Dwight D. Eisenhower and extraterrestrials. In light of today's whistleblowers, congressional hearings, and growing discussions surrounding non-human intelligence, Ryan welcomes author Paul Blake Smith back to examine the evidence behind this extraordinary claim. Together, they explore the alleged 1954 meeting at Edwards Air Force Base, secret communications, nuclear warnings, government cover-ups, and why this controversial story continues to resonate more than 70 years later.

Dear Friends,In honor of this very Pluto full Moon, I am releasing a conversation I recorded with Theresa earlier this month. I meant to post this episode two weeks ago, but I was swallowed up first by finals (summer school, ew, gross) and then by my birthday, which was not just any birthday but was, in fact, my 40th birthday—a milestone for which I felt a sort of uncharacteristic reverence that I didn't know how to meet or what to do with.I ended up spending the day with friends and family, and the next morning my boyfriend took this photo of me eating cake for breakfast on the couch. The photo made me smile because, as a child, I was notoriously unable to keep my eyes open for pictures, and I felt, somehow, like I could reach through the image of this forty-and-one-day-old lady into the heart of my inner child (who, by the way, has ALWAYS loved chocolate cake as much as the photo suggests).My boyfriend has a theory about kids who can't keep their eyes open in family photos. He says these little squinters are the “good” kids—the attentive, hyper-attuned, eager-to-please children who wait with their smiles and faces camera-ready while the rest of the group gets wrangled and wrestled into order. By the time the camera flashes, the good kids miss the moment; their eyes flutter shut from the fatigue and unnatural straining. I have no way of assessing the accuracy of his theory, but it certainly falls under the category of feels true. And yesterday, as I relistened to parts of Theresa's and my Pluto conversation, I felt a powerful kinship with the good little kid inside me and a reverence for all the transformation she's undergone to get to where she is today.The truth is I still am the good kid. I am terrified of messing up, of disappointing others, of being misunderstood. There is a part of me that still wants to smile when it's time to smile; to get the best grades; to be the perfect homemaker; to embody the pleasing visage of feminine grace my mother hoped and prayed and begged of me. But my life had different plans for me.In this episode, Theresa and I dive deep into all things Pluto, but if I were to sum up the Lord of the Underworld in one line here, I would say Pluto represents the layers of deeply held, conscious and unconscious fears that barricade our path to transformative change. His transits tend to correspond with one or the other side of this process: encounters with the fear and/or experiences of transformation.This morning, the Moon reaches the apex of her fullness at 6 degrees of Aquarius in conjunction with Pluto, opposite the Sun-Jupiter cazimi. It also happens to be a full Moon on top of my natal Moon, which, for those of you beloved astro nerds who are paying close attention, means I am currently in the throes of an extended Pluto-Moon transit. Pluto has become my Moon's multi-year bedfellow, and today takes a highlighter pen to this very long transit, the transit I believe represents the real force underlying the heavy reverence I felt about turning 40, as well as the weepy, yearning love I feel for that good kid inside me.Robert Hand described the Pluto-Moon conjunction as a powerful transformation of the most intensely personal and preconscious part of the psyche. I was born with Pluto in Scorpio in the 12th house, and I suffered from extreme anxiety and terrifying intrusive thoughts as a child. For the most part, this went unnoticed by others because—hello, Saturn, planet of boundaries and responsibility, on my Ascendant—I wasn't much of an externalizer. I kept my complaints and feelings to myself.What were the root causes of my childhood anxiety? Probably a lot of things, but fundamentalist Christian day-school is high on my list of prime suspects. I was, for better or worse, both an innately spiritual and innately serious child—a perfect storm of vulnerabilities that resulted in my taking the greatest hits of Christian fundamentalism much too much to heart at far too young an age.You were born wrong, bad, sinful, broken. Your mind is not to be trusted. Your heart is corrupt. God can save you, but only if you think the right, rightest, most righteous thoughts and remember to ask forgiveness for the wrong thoughts! That is, if you have time and you don't get caught sinning with your bad, broken mind at the very end—which is totally near, scheduled for a time nobody knows, except for… this fucking thief in the night guy?To a large degree, the 12th house represents the unconscious mechanisms of our psyche that color our experience of our innermost selves. The 12th house contains places of retreat, experiences of isolation, and the mental states and physical places we enter into during forced and voluntary solitude. Sometimes I think of the 12th house very simply as what being alone feels like. And as a child, being alone was the fucking worst. Alone is when my mind would begin to swirl and struggle against the rip current of the underworld. Pluto, through his fear-inspiring religious actors, had managed to isolate me almost entirely from myself. I couldn't trust my own heart; I feared doing wrong; I feared harming others; I feared the end of the world; my mind projected violent, intrusive images of the worst things I could imagine. I felt trapped in a prison inside myself, all the while smiling when I was meant to smile and doing my best to project my perfect, rule-following trustworthiness.In my forty years of life, Pluto has moved through three houses in my chart, and my relationship to these early childhood experiences has transformed and evolved. I no longer feel the acute pain that raged within me throughout my 20s and 30s; I have come to accept that an intense relationship with spirituality is part of my path. I wish it had not started with harm and religious trauma, but the intensity never stopped; it transformed into a deep, profound, personal, sensory, heart-centered relationship with the Divine. And when Pluto opposed my Sun for nearly three years in the early 2020s, I cultivated a unique and personal spiritual practice that I might not have gotten to if I hadn't had the harm to press up against with all the force of my unyielding anger and indignation. But my spiritual practice didn't fix everything. In fact, the most consistent effect of my practice is that it reveals what has yet to be resolved and routinely sets me down new paths of healing, equipped with the internal and external resources I need to help me change myself. (This, by the way, is my definition of grace, but that is the topic of another essay.)What is relevant now is that even though my spiritual trauma is much healed and largely transformed, I am still working on the raw sensations beneath the Christian schoolgirl story. As transiting Pluto comes to sit on my Moon, I am still learning to trust myself. I am still cultivating an inner sense of my own goodness. I am still interrupting both the impulse to seek external validation and the extreme pressure I place on myself to perform—to be insightful, to say only the right, correct thing, and never the wrong, accidentally harmful thing. And as Pluto transits around my chart, he will always bring circumstances to the surface that will threaten to isolate me from myself. How I respond to those circumstances determines if Pluto will tug the knot tighter or loosen its hold.When I turned 40 last week, I moved into a Mars profection year. Mars is a troublemaker, but he is also my favorite of the planetary deities. I love him like you love a brother you're always fighting with. Mars never holds back—not on criticism, conviction, or love.On the eve of my birthday, I went into meditation and found Mars inside myself. I asked him to help me face this very Pluto-Moon year with grace and determination, to help me move through the world with more courage, and to help me overcome the patterns of dissociation I've been running since childhood. I asked Mars to help me learn how to stay in my body when I want to eject, to follow through, to fight for myself, and to believe in the value of my own work.And this, to me, will always be the real value of astrology: not to determine what will be, but to help us strive toward what we wish to become, with the aid of beings who exist beyond us and within us. Between them, they hold expressions of every quality—the familiar and the unfamiliar, that which comes naturally and that which feels distant and inaccessible. We have access to so much help and so many teachers. It is a wonder to live this life. Thank you for being here with me on this very Pluto Full Moon. Here's to another 40 years.

People on both sides of the Canada - U.S. border have been choking on smoke in recent weeks, much of it coming from fires burning in Canada's forests. Now, U.S. President Donald Trump is threatening new, fire-related tariffs in retaliation. Climate scientists like Zeke Hausfather say wildfires in Canada's vast boreal forest are linked to global warming and can't be blamed on just one country. And environmental law expert Godwin Dzah explains, when health hazards cross borders there are ways to hold governments and companies to account. But the question of liability gets hazy when climate change enters the conversation.

Wildfires in Canada have become a major story in the US because the smoke from those fires have traveled a very long way, covering the skies of cities in the Upper Midwest as far south as Chicago, over nearly all of Michigan, and to major population centers in the Northeast. Much media coverage blames the fires on human-caused climate change. But what does the actual data say?On Episode 209 of The Climate Realism Show the Heartland Institute's Anthony Watts, Linnea Lueken, Sterling Burnett, Jim Lakely Heartland UK/Europe's Lois Perry will debunk some myths about the fire and also talk about other Crazy Climate News of the Week. The UK is poised to turn off people's heat pumps right when they need them in the cold of winter. Are rolling blackouts coming to the US because of over-reliance on so-called “green” energy?

Wildfires in Canada have become a major story in the US because the smoke from those fires have traveled a very long way, covering the skies of cities in the Upper Midwest as far south as Chicago, over nearly all of Michigan, and to major population centers in the Northeast. Much media coverage blames the fires on human-caused climate change. But what does the actual data say?On Episode 209 of The Climate Realism Show the Heartland Institute's Anthony Watts, Linnea Lueken, Sterling Burnett, Jim Lakely Heartland UK/Europe's Lois Perry will debunk some myths about the fire and also talk about other Crazy Climate News of the Week. The UK is poised to turn off people's heat pumps right when they need them in the cold of winter. Are rolling blackouts coming to the US because of over-reliance on so-called “green” energy? And we'll look at how much typhoons hate solar power.Join us Friday at 1 p.m. ET on YouTube, Rumble, X, and Facebook.

Dr. Phil continues his coverage of the government's UAP disclosures by speaking with former U.S Navy Lieutenant and F-18 pilot, Ryan Graves, who has over a decade of service, including two deployments in Operation Enduring Freedom and Operation Inherent Resolve. While flying with the NAVY, Ryan witnessed firsthand advanced UAPs and is considered the first active-duty pilot to come forward publicly about regular UAP sightings.
