  • Jay Stratton: Out of the Shadows

    Jay Stratton: Out of the Shadows
    2026/10/21
    Ryan takes a deep dive into Out of the Shadows, the new book from former Pentagon UFO investigator, Jay Stratton. From alleged recovered alien spacecraft and non-human bodies to secret reverse-engineering programs, encounters with extraterrestrial beings, and government cover-ups, Stratton makes some extraordinary claims. But does he provide the evidence to back them up, or does his book raise more questions than answers? We also examine new developments surrounding the alleged UFO luring operation at White Sands Missile Range, including claims of mysterious orbs and unreleased military footage. Plus, a former Army sniper shares a shocking story of U.S. soldiers allegedly battling reptilian beings near Area 51. Could these claims connect to David Grusch's recent revelations? We also pay tribute to Mario Woods, a former U.S. Air Force nuclear security officer, UFO witness, and past guest of the show, who sadly passed away this week.

    Jacques Vallée: 60 Years of UFO Secrets, Science, and a Final Search for Truth
    2026/10/19
    Legendary UFO researcher and author Jacques Vallee returns to discuss his latest book, Forbidden Science 7: The Final Report, and the future of UFO research. Together, he and Ryan explore the realities of UFO disclosure, Vallee's ongoing analysis of mysterious materials with Dr. Garry Nolan, and the possible connections between consciousness and non-human intelligence. He also revisits the controversial Trinity UFO crash, the possibility that certain UFO crashes were deliberate, and why government revelations may raise more questions than answers. After more than six decades investigating the unexplained, Vallée reflects on his remarkable career, the mysteries that remain, and why the next generation of researchers may need to rethink everything they believe about UFOs.

  • The Birth of the Black-Eyed Kids | Brian Bethel’s Terrifying Encounter (SITS CLASSIC)

    The Birth of the Black-Eyed Kids | Brian Bethel’s Terrifying Encounter (SITS CLASSIC)
    2026/10/16
    In this episode of Somewhere in the Skies Classics, Ryan speaks with Brian Bethel, the man behind one of the earliest and most chilling accounts of the Black-Eyed Kids. In 1996, Bethel was sitting alone in his car in Abilene, Texas, when two young boys approached asking for a ride. Something about them filled him with overwhelming fear, then he saw their completely black eyes. Bethel recounts the terrifying encounter, how his story spread across the early internet and helped ignite the BEK phenomenon, and what he believes may lurk behind those dark, soulless eyes.

    He Knew Too Much: The Mysterious Death of James Forrestal
    2026/10/12
    We are joined by author and researcher, Peter Robbins, to investigate the mysterious death of James Forrestal, America's first Secretary of Defense. On May 22nd, 1949, Forrestal plunged from the sixteenth floor of Bethesda Naval Hospital, sparking decades of controversy and conspiracy theories. With alleged ties to Majestic 12, a rumored secret government group investigating crashed UFOs, questions remain. Did Forrestal know too much about UFOs and extraterrestrial technology? Was his death a tragic suicide, or was something far more sinister at play?

  • She Woke Up to UFOs Outside Her Window w/ Zelia Edgar

    She Woke Up to UFOs Outside Her Window w/ Zelia Edgar
    2026/10/09
    In October 1973, a woman living near Cincinnati, Ohio, awoke in the middle of the night to a brilliant light shining through her bedroom window. Looking outside, she witnessed several glowing UFOs hovering silently above her front lawn. Then, standing beyond the mysterious craft, she saw something even more unsettling. It was a tall humanoid figure watching from the darkness. One of Ohio's most chilling UFO encounters, this little-known case continues to raise questions more than 50 years later.
