    From Silver Flying Saucers to Metallic Beings: Investigating Kentucky's Fascinating UFO Encounter of 1955
    May 8 2025

    What really happened on that fateful night in 1955 when a family in Kelly, Kentucky, encountered strange, humanoid creatures? Join host Simon Bown in episode 84 of the Alien UFO Podcast as he uncovers the chilling details of the infamous Kentucky Goblins case, a story that has captivated UFO enthusiasts and paranormal investigators alike. Drawing from Charles Lear's compelling book, The Flying Saucer Investigators, Bown brings to life the harrowing experiences of witnesses, including Benny Ray Taylor, who first reported seeing a silver flying saucer hovering ominously over their farmhouse.

    As the night unfolds, the tension escalates with multiple sightings of small, metallic aliens, leading to frantic moments filled with fear and gunfire. What drove this family to take such drastic measures? The episode dives deep into the chaos that ensued, revealing how a simple rural setting became the backdrop for high strangeness phenomena that still baffle investigators today. Bown also sheds light on the police investigation that followed, highlighting the challenges faced in gathering concrete evidence of these bizarre occurrences.

    But this episode is more than just a recounting of an extraordinary event; it serves as a lens through which we can explore the broader implications of UFO sightings and encounters in American folklore. How do these stories shape our understanding of extraterrestrial life? What can they teach us about the history of UFOs and the ongoing discussions within the UFO community? Bown encourages listeners to reflect on these questions as he navigates the complexities of alien visitation theories and the evidence of alien life that continues to elude us.

    Bio

    CHARLES LEAR has many interests, of which UFOs take up more than a little of his time. His main interests in the UFO subject are in the documented history the phenomenon has spawned and the people who investigate it, as this book reflects. Charles’ other interests are geology and paleontology and his familiarity with science and its disciplines informs his approach to the UFO subject. Having lived most of his life in New York City, where he made his living as a union stagehand and was involved in other aspects of theatre as a playwright, producer, director and Shakespearean actor, Charles now resides in New York, USA.

  • Investigating Flying Saucers

    Investigating Flying Saucers
    May 4 2025

    Flying saucers were a brand-new mystery in the late 1940s and early 1950s. After the initial excitement known as “saucer mania” that started in the summer of 1947 had died down, the U.S. Air Force had an active investigation program that operated after 1952 as Project Blue Book, and private saucer investigation groups formed that same year. Both the Air Force and the private investigators felt that an answer was within reach, and there were those who felt that it might involve creatures from other planets or even other dimensions.

    This book looks at the recorded history left behind by the investigators. It also looks at the interactions among them, as well as the interactions between them and a public that was sometimes skeptical and at other times accused the Air Force, and even the private investigators, of a cover-up. The story of the flying saucer investigators is as much about the people who investigated the saucers as it is about the saucers and who or what might be behind them.

    My name is Reinerio (Rey) Hernandez and I was a Ph.D. Candidate at the University of California at Berkeley where I was the recipient of a National Science Foundation Ph.D. Fellowship. I am also an “Experiencer” of the paranormal Contact Modalities.This is a book about my personal experiences via the Contact Modalities, titled A Greater Reality: One Man’s Journey of Discovery. This book discusses many of my personal experiences that I have kept hidden for many years because of fear that I would lose my law license and any academic credibility that I might have accumulated over many years of academic research. The book not only discusses the details of some of my most important bizarre experiences via the Contact Modalities, it also presents various theoretical hypotheses about the “Contact Phenomenon”, based upon my personal experiences, such as:1) that all of the Contact Modalities, including UFOs, have the ability to manipulate Space-Time;2) that the perceived physical beings we are experiencing, via NDEs, OBEs, UFO contact experiences, etc., and the telepathic communications we are receiving, are all “Holographic Projections” from an external non-physical source;3) that the intelligence behind the UFO contact phenomenon can “control” your conscious thoughts and even to “project” mental images and thoughts into your “Mind”;4) and many other hypotheses on the relationship between Consciousness and the Contact Modalities.I am currently the Director of the Consciousness and Contact Research Institute, or CCRI, an academic research institute comprised of more than 25 Ph.D. academics, medical doctors, and researchers whose mission is to explore the findings of consciousness research and the phenomenology of “paranormal experiences”, what CCRI calls “The Contact Modalities, a term I coined in 2013. The term “Contact Modalities” is defined as “all of the diverse ways that humans are ‘piercing the veil’ of our physical reality and having perceived contact with consciousness-based Higher Forms of Intelligence”, also called “Non-Human Intelligence”. Examples of the Contact Modalities are as follows: Near-Death Experiences (NDEs), Out of Body Experiences (OBEs), Astral Travel Experiences (ATE), (which are very different from OBEs), Conscious Aerial Phenomena (CAP-UFOs), (commonly called UFOs or UAPs), contact experiences with perceived deceased humans (commonly called Ghosts or Spirits), contact experiences via Hallucinogenic Journeys (via entheogens such as DMT, Psilocybin, LSD, etc.), contact experiences via Remote Viewing or other forms of clairvoyance, contact experiences via Channeling or Mediumship, contact via the many forms of Post Death Communications, contact experiences via Lucid Dreams, contact via perceived Poltergeists experiences or spiritual attachments, and many other types of “paranormal” contact experiences with tens of thousands of diverse forms of Non-Human Intelligence, whether they be perceived as physical or non-physical.I, and a professional documentary team that has produced 10 Star Trek documentaries with William Shatner, have recorded hundreds of commercials, rock concerts, TV commercials, Super Bowl events, and other events, and have been working on a 2-hour documentary over the last 6 years. We have filmed and interviewed, across the United States, over 50 Ph.D. academics, medical doctors, researchers and more than 100 "Experiencers" of the Contact Modalities for our documentary. The documentary, which also shares the same name as my book, A Greater Reality: One Man’s Journey of Discovery, will be released in 2025.

  • From Naval Intelligence to Personal ET Encounters

    From Naval Intelligence to Personal ET Encounters
    Apr 24 2025

    In 2015, Matthew Roberts was a US Naval service member stationed onboard the USS Theodore Roosevelt. The events that transpired during their 2015 workup cycle brought us the first-ever declassified footage of unidentified aerial phenomenon (UAP)and the New York Times article titled: “Glowing Auras and ‘Black Money’: The Pentagon’s Mysterious U.F.O. Program.” Subsequently, he transferred to the Office of Naval Intelligence in Washington D.C. where he began to have frequent, and often intense, personal experiences with the phenomenon.

    He discovered through a long, painful, and terrifying journey that the truth of the phenomenon has deep and profound implications for the future of the human race. It may seem like a bold statement but the ultimate universal truth that underlies the phenomenon is captured in the simple yet eloquent words of Mark Twain, “The two most important days in your life are the day you are born, and the day you find out why.”
