On April 24 1964, a quiet New York farmer claimed to speak for nearly two hours with two small beings in silvery suits while an egg-shaped craft hovered over his field. That same day, Lonnie Zamora witnessed an almost identical object in Socorro, New Mexico.In this episode, we read directly from Dr. Berthold E. Schwarz’s 1969 “UFO Percipients” report, a rare document detailing Gary Wilcox’s psychiatric evaluation, personality testing, and interviews conducted years after the event. What did the doctors find? Was he delusional, deceptive, or telling the truth?We’ll explore the strange overlap between these two legendary cases, the forgotten investigator Priscilla Baldwin, and how early researchers tried to separate psychology from the unexplained.

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist

It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
