a very skeptical podcast

Talking in depth about ancient astronauts and UFOs.

Speaking of aliens and technology, here's a recent podcast with yours truly about UFOs, the ancient astronaut theory, conspiracies and transhumanism for alternative blog Occult of Personality. It was a very fun and challenging discussion in which host Greg K. put me through my skeptical paces, but be warned that the podcast itself is just over an hour long and we get pretty existential talking about the potential future of humanity, and the idea of our descendants merging with machines centuries from now to redefine what it means to be human in the first place.

We start off with an exploration of the UFO phenomena, top secret projects by the USAF and make our way to legends of ancient astronaut and the numerous conspiracy theories associated with them before heading into Ray Kurzweil territory to consider what humanity might be like in the far future as the show starts to wind down. Tune in, enjoy and let us know what you think!
