In this bonus episode of the Close Encounter Club, I’m joined by Josh Barretto as we dive into a fascinating and eye-opening conversation with Matt Hurley, the creator of BadAliens.info (VIEWER DISCRETION ADVISED). Matt shares his journey into UFO research, his skepticism, and the discoveries that led him to explore the darker aspects of alien encounters—abductions, mutilations, and the chilling "human mutilation" phenomenon.
We discuss the possible motives behind extraterrestrial activity, theories of hybridization programs, and the striking parallels between historical accounts and modern experiences. Matt also offers his unique perspective on disclosure, cryptids, and the intersection of UFOs with paranormal phenomena.
This is an unfiltered and thought-provoking discussion that challenges the conventional narratives surrounding the UFO phenomenon. Listen now and let us know what you think!
