In April of 1966, Portage County police officers were investigating an abandoned car on the side of the road. Suddenly, they heard an electrical humming sound coming from the nearby woods.

Oscar Linke, War Time, and Flying Saucers of Berlin

3/3/2024
This episode is sponsored by BetterHelp. Give online therapy a try at: www.betterhelp.com/skies and get on your way to being your best self. On episode 345 of SOMEWHERE IN THE SKIES, we head to Berlin. Of the many files released by the CIA, one bearing the title, Flying Saucers in East Germany, from July 9th, 1952 is one of the most interesting. The account would find its way to the CIA after the main witness, Oscar Linke would testify of his claims before a judge. What made the Oscar Linke case even more intriguing is that he and his family would escape the oppression of Soviet-controlled East Germany and into the relative freedom of West Germany before the incident became known. Linke knew that what he'd witnessed wasn't a Soviet craft of any kind. In fact, he didn't believe it to be from any country. He believed it to have come from another world.

The Exeter UFO Incident

10/15/2023
On episode 339 of SOMEWHERE IN THE SKIES, we head to Exeter, New Hampshire. In September of 1965, 18-year old Norman Muscarello spotted a massive cylindrical-shaped object hovering in a field in the sleepy town of Exeter. He frantically reported the event to local police. Several officers would accompany Muscarello back to the site to investigate. And the craft, whatever it was, was back. Witnessed by the officers and dozens around town, explanations by the local Air Force base were flat-out rejected by the witnesses. Soon, Project Blue Book would be called in to solve the case once and for all. This is the Exeter UFO incident.

Comedians on UFOs: Part 2

10/3/2023
Welcome to Comedians on UFOs: Part 2! We are joined by Tim Barnes, Michael Ian Black, Brian Huskey, Reggie Watts, Andrew Sanford, and Dean Haglund! UFO accounts can sometimes reminds us of a playful world. A humorous world. A species looking for structure and pattern and constantly being bombarded with both chaos and ridiculousness. And that if most definitely UFOs. And it's also comedy. Comedy gives us a communal experience full of confusion and raw emotional release. It makes us feel more human than ever. So when we're faced with something possibly non-human, we can choose to run away from it or fight it. Or, we can embrace it and sometimes, laugh about it. In this series, Ryan digs into the archives of Somewhere in the Skies to bring you a collection of interviews he's conducted throughout the years with comedians. And, as you'll see, a common thread starts to weave its way through these conversations. Why are comedians drawn to UFOs? How can we use it to both accept and possibly even understand UFO phenomenon?

The Flash UFO Wave of 1993

10/1/2023
On episode 337 of SOMEWHERE IN THE SKIES, we head to Indiana. In 1993, across the state, witnesses in all walks of life would report dozens of UFO sightings for over an hour. All reported similar shaped craft, with red lights being the primary detail that made local authorities believe that everyone was seeing the same thing. The craft seemed to be moving with purpose and destination. But where? And just exactly what was it? Some say it was Apache helicopters. Others believed it to be a craft from another world. But whatever it was, it gripped the entire state of Indiana in what became known as the "Flash UFO Wave of 1993."

UFOs, Cattle Mutilations, and the Mysterious Valley

9/17/2023
On episode 335 of SOMEWHERE IN THE SKIES, we are joined by author and researcher, Christopher O'Brien. From 1992 to 2002, O’Brien investigated over 1,000 paranormal events reported in the San Luis Valley—located in south-central Colorado/north-central New Mexico. Working with law enforcement officials, ex-military, ranchers and an extensive network of skywatchers, he documented what may have been the most intense wave of unexplained activity ever seen in a single region of North America. His ten-year investigation resulted in the three books of his “mysterious valley” trilogy" and a book titled, "Stalking the Herd", which examines our relationship with cattle and how this has manifested into the modern “cattle mutilation” mystery. We will discuss all of this and more on this special livestream episode where we'll also take your listener questions.
