On episode 53 of SOMEWHERE IN THE SKIES, Ryan is joined once again by academic, author, and researcher, MJ Banias. Whiskey in hand, they dig deep into the human side of UFO experiences. Where do we fit into the entire UFO mystery? What motivations could the source (or sources) of UFO phenomena have in the way we interpret and experience their presence in our lives? And just exactly how much whiskey does it take to hear Stan Romanek's name brought up again in UFO discourse? The answer is in this second installment of Somewhere in the Whiskey. Cheers! Guest Bio: MJ Banias is a writer and blogger who critically and philosophically examines the weird, the strange and the anomalous. He was a former field investigator with MUFON, has been featured on multiple podcasts and radio shows, and contributes to Mysterious Universe and Rogue Planet. His work has been included in FATE Magazine, and in a new book entitled UFOs: Reframing the Debate. His work can be found at: www.terraobscura.net Additional music in this episode was provided by Rogue Diplomats.
