By popular demand, UFO researcher and Strange Paradigms host Christina Gomez returns to Here’s What We Know. Known for her creative reels and comedic alter egos, Christina has a knack for making the mysterious both accessible and unforgettable.

From the grind of researching cases while juggling three jobs to unpacking the fine line between skepticism and open-mindedness, this conversation dives deep. We explore Project Blue Book and its modern counterpart AARO, NASA’s lukewarm approach to UAPs, and why Bigelow Aerospace’s ties to Skinwalker Ranch still raise eyebrows.

We’re talking global sightings over nuclear sites, mysterious “drones” that defy easy explanation, and the tug-of-war between debunkers and truth seekers. Buckle up,  the search for answers just got a whole lot more interesting.

In This Episode:

  • Why “UFO” became “UAP” and how that shapes the conversation
  • Congressional hearings, NASA briefings, and the private sector’s role in secrecy
  • Historical sightings that predate modern technology
  • The fine line between skepticism and open-minded inquiry
  • Skinwalker Ranch phenomena and high strangeness connections
