Have you ever wondered where all the typical alien tropes in movies and TV shows come from? Well look no further than the abduction that started them all! A belated honeymoon delayed by most people's worst nightmare - this week we discuss the abduction of Betty and Barney Hill.
As a note to our listeners: apologies for the audio quality on last week's episode, we're trying to fix it but something was wrong with our recording equipment. Thank you all for sticking around and supporting!
