Why is Florida a magnet for alien encounters? Is it because Florida is sandwiched between two huge bodies of water? Or it's space activity on the east coast? Or the dynamic nature of the state with visitors, residents and tourists drawn to this slim patch of land from across the globe?
This episode shares the data, reports from locals, and then takes a broader look at the impact seeing something supernatural can have on a person.
Let's get into it.
(And hang on after the final music for a juicy bonus tidbit!)
