In 1957 a sharply dressed stranger named Valiant Thor reportedly stepped out of a shiny craft in Virginia, talked his way into the White House, and spent the next three years living beneath the Pentagon pitching humanity on a full‑blown makeover—think “end disease, erase poverty, shelve those nukes" kinda vibe. Naturally, the government said no.

This episode walks you through that whole bizarre saga: the goverments rejection, the Reddit AMA that put Thor back on Ufology’s radar and who the heck this humanoid appearing alien calling himself "Valiant Thor" actually was.

Strap in—if an alien really did try to rescue Earth with a PowerPoint, the least we can do is give him 20 minutes of podcast glory.

Is your favorite celebrity an alien? Could you be one too? In this episode, we dive into the Starseed Theory — the idea that millions of aliens have chosen to reincarnate as humans. From Jim Morrison to David Bowie to your upstairs neighbor who’s always seemed a little off, we’re breaking down alleged alien races, celebrity starseeds, and how to know if you’re one too. Buckle up, my friends.

No term is more recognizable in Ufology than “The Greys,” and yes, I’m here to talk about them on yet another podcast—for the 13 millionth time. Lucky you! But instead of the typical dark, creepy and terrifying details, which don't worry, we'll still get into—I tried to bring some comedy to our ol' grey friends. Plot twist, they totally aren't our friends. Freakin' pricks.

If you know anything about the Greys, you know their sightings had been reported for years. And beyond their massive heads, enormous black eyes and general coldness—they also seemed intent on (allegedly) co-creating with humans. Bow chicka wow wow! Sorry. Turns out, this co-creation didn’t make “starseeds” (we’ll get into those next episode). Nope, it made hybrids. Part Grey alien, part human. DUN DUN DUN!

Is it true? Am I mentally unwell? I suppose those two things can, and probably do, co-exist. But regardless, the Greys are an arguably necessary, if not overdone, topic in the alien world, and chances are you’ve heard of them whether you’re into this stuff or not.

So let’s evaluate the Greys—who, for many years, were anything but conspicuous and definitely got people talking...especially after casually landing at an elementary school in South Africa and striking up a conversation with some students. No big deal.

It's a question you'll inevitably find yourself asking if you listen to this podcast or even engage in conversation with me, "Seth, how the hell did we end up here?" In fact, that phrase was nearly chosen as the quote for my high school yearbook. Instead, I went with "If you can't handle me at my worst, then you sure as hell don't deserve me at my best.” Thank you Marilyn Monroe for seeing and hearing me.

Regardless, it was an experience with a psychic medium that I dragged my feet to thinking I was about to be scrammed and walked out thinking, "My entire life has been a lie." And from that moment on, I was hooked.
