Michel Whittington has compiled an ode to such unexplainables in a book called “Close Encounters of the Texas Kind”. Its pages are the inspiration and contain the stories brought forth for this episode. From the first reported flying saucer, before Kenneth Arnold, to death from above, to the most bizarre series of encounters with an unexplainable technological wonder that remains a mystery which continues to amaze and delight to this day.

Then for our Plus+ Extension, we piece together the story of the Gulf Breeze Six, a crazy story about six military intelligence analysts who went AWOL because of messages received during ouija board sessions. Their mission? To stop the impending arrival of the Antichrist! Were these the collective delusions of young, impressionable soldiers? Or was it yet another example of low level entities sending their victims on a wild goose chase?
