Show Notes

Before diving into this week's strange encounters, the guys talk about their upcoming appearance at the Ducks Unlimited DUX Expo in Memphis, Tennessee, where they'll be meeting listeners and taking part in one of the biggest outdoor events of the year.

Then it's on to the unexplained.

This episode is packed with bizarre eyewitness accounts and mysterious encounters from around the world. They examine a chilling report of the Fluid Man, a bizarre entity that seems to shift and flow like liquid, before discussing a strange translucent flying creature witnessed gliding silently through the night. From there, they explore another unsettling Not Deer encounter, a terrifying run-in with a Dogman, and a series of eerie stories involving the mysterious Little People.

The guys also take a look at a controversial military account alleging that a covert operation resulted in the deaths of two Bigfoot-like creatures, raising questions about what governments may know about these elusive beings. Finally, they close the show with one of New Zealand's most compelling UFO cases—The Blenheim Encounter—the remarkable story of a dairy farmer who watched a glowing disc descend into a field at dawn and came face-to-face with a silver-suited occupant.

From cryptids and humanoids to military mysteries and classic UFO encounters, this episode is filled with the strange, the mysterious, and the unexplained.
