In this episode we'll be discussing the highly probable existence of life on other planets and why no one really seems to care.
The 2023 Unidentified Aerial Phenomena hearings, in which three seemingly plausible US military veterans testified under oath, appeared to confirm that we've already made first contact, and yet this potentially world-changing information was met with an almost universal shrug of indifference.
In an attempt to find out why, we spoke to psychologist David Myers, film critic Eddie Harrison, the esteemed scientist Professor James M. Scobbie, and our resident Gen Z correspondent Sprite Kirkwood.
It's a pretty wild journey.
We'd also like to thank actor Laura Hogg for lending her voice to the episode and, as always, musician Dan Jackson for mixing our theme tune.
