On episode 115 of SOMEWHERE IN THE SKIES, Ryan pulls a hilarious and detailed review out of the archives from fellow Eone Podcast Network hosts, J.M. McNab, Blain Watters, and Robert LaRonde of the Rewatchability podcast. Rewatchability is a comedic pop-culture podcast focusing on the movies and TV shows of the recent past. Each week, the hosts profile a cherished property from their youths to see if it holds up to the scrutinous eye of today. That movie was SIGNS, the 2002 alien-themed mystery thriller from M. Night Shyamalan. Ryan joined them to give his "alien expertise" and to give his honest opinions of this highly anticipated film. Did it live up to ufological standards? Did the entire group think it was rewatchable? And how the hell do you come to a planet made mostly of water when it's your biggest weakness?Guest(s) Bios: Rewatchability is a comedic pop-culture nostalgia podcast hosted by J.M. McNab, Rob LaRonde, and Blain Watters. It is produced independently in Toronto, ON. The show began in the summer of 2011. In 2012 it was profiled by The A.V. Club and in 2015 our podcast appeared on CBC Radio’s Podcast Playlist. The aim of the show is to re-watch movies and television shows from when we were younger, and review them in an interesting and hopefully humorous way. Hopefully.Patreon: www.patreon.com/somewhereskiesTo watch ROSWELL: MYSTERIES DECODED for free, CLICK HERE Website: www.somewhereintheskies.comYouTube Channel: CLICK HEREOfficial Store: CLICK HEREOrder Ryan's Book by CLICKING HERETwitter: @SomewhereSkiesInstagram: @SomewhereSkiesPodOpening Theme Song, "Ephemeral Reign" by Per KiilstofteSOMEWHERE IN THE SKIES is part of the eOne podcast network.

On episode 113 of SOMEWHERE IN THE SKIES, Ryan is joined by experiencer researcher and witness testimony preserver, NK Kranda. She walks us through her process of interviewing witnesses and experiencers of both UFO and anomalous phenomena. How has her work in psychology, PTSD, and trauma helped her in speaking with witnesses? What are her thoughts on hypnosis regression when trying to uncover suppressed memories? We also hear a few anonymous stories from her archives and just exactly where experiencer preservation lay in the overall study and investigation of UFOs and beyond. It's a powerful interview you won't soon forget.Guest Bio: NK Kranda is a southern California native now living in Texas. She went to school for Horticulture Sciences and graduated with highest honors. She then continued her education in the fields of psychology, PTSD and trauma therapies, art, biology, psychics, history, and shamanism. She currently works in experiencer research and preservation and has the honor of interviewing some of the most incredible people the field has to offer. Her interest in contactees and experiencers began when she volunteered as a MUFON chapter secretary in San Antonio. After writing way too many reports, she found her true interests were in the people that quietly came to meetings to tell an incredible story. She taught them to fight stigma, to never stop telling their story, and to honor themselves because they survived.

On episode 109 of SOMEWHERE IN THE SKIES, we bring you another powerful volume of witness accounts. UFO sightings and otherworldly encounters are life-altering experiences. They challenge our perception, our beliefs, and recalibrate our entire journey in a world we often think is paved out for us. But the accounts in this episode certainly prove otherwise for those who looked up into the skies and realized that the map was yet to be fully navigated.

On episode 107 of SOMEWHERE IN THE SKIES, Ryan brings us the incredible story of Herbert Schirmer. On December 3rd, 1967, Schirmer, a twenty-two-year-old police officer, was driving down a desolate highway in Ashland, Nebraska. He approached a pair of lights that he believed to be a stalled vehicle. When he got closer, he realized it wasn't a vehicle on the road, but a craft hovering in the night sky. After a few moments, the craft shot out of sight and the officer returned to his station, noting the sighting in his logbook. But for Schirmer, there seemed to be a period of missing time between when he first saw the object and when he left the area. And when he finally recalled what had happened in those missing moments, the story became far bigger and stranger than first imagined, prompting the Air Force and Government to investigate.Presented in association with the Omaha World-Herald and including actual audio from Schirmer himself, this is the story of the abduction in Ashland. Use Promo code: SKIES for discount tickets to ALIEN CONPatreon: www.patreon.com/somewhereskiesTo watch ROSWELL: MYSTERIES DECODED for free, CLICK HERE Website: www.somewhereintheskies.comYouTube Channel: CLICK HEREOfficial Store: CLICK HEREOrder Ryan's Book by CLICKING HERETwitter: @SomewhereSkiesInstagram: @SomewhereSkiesPodOpening Theme Song, "Ephemeral Reign" by Per KiilstofteSOMEWHERE IN THE SKIES is part of the eOne podcast network.
