We kick off this extra long episode with a question of synchronicities. And then we talk about the culture of dumb people inhabiting our favorite paranormal subculture. And then what? This episode is 2 1/2 hours long--surely we will talk about the most paranormal event of 2016: the rise of Donald Trump and the enigma of Bernie Sanders. And then bag on Richard Dolan for a while before dismantling the Roswell slides. I mean, why not?

After a brief chat about weird coincidences devolves into a bittersweet nostalgia trip, we talk about just how entrenched flying disks have been in our psyches predating ufology. And that stream of consciousness dumps us into a much larger ocean of super natural discussion.
