Episode notes

I have a library. Three, four thousand volumes in my office here. And I have just one whole bookcase of just UFO books. Here is a book called Abduction by John Mack, human encounters with aliens. This is the Harvard psychiatrist who wrote this debrief story. He's not just making this up. It's a true account of factual experience. There he is. There's the spaceship. Let's double check what year this was published just to show you how far back this goes. 1955, George Odamsky. A bored, a flying saucer. Okay. Truman Botherum. Notice at the bottom they put nonfiction. Not fiction. We are not alone

A commentary on the latest UAP/UFO story about the whistleblower and the government UFO retrieval program.

In this special episode of The Michael Shermer Show, Dr. Shermer addresses the latest claims by a whistleblower that the U.S. government and its allies has spacecraft that are “off-world,” meaning extraterrestrial in nature.

If true, it would be one of the greatest discoveries in human history, but is it, in fact, true?

Very very unlikely, for a number of reasons that Dr. Shermer considers as he puts this story into historical context after 30+ years of studying UFOs, a topic of regular coverage in Skeptic magazine.

Also, read Dr. Shermer’s article in Quillette: “Aliens…Again! This time, they always say, it could be different.”
