Because Alex is away, you get to look behind the Patreon curtain and acquaint your ears to a bonus episode! Back in March (2022), Alex & Christie somewhat celebrated Christie’s birthday on Patreon with her favourite topic - aliens. Well, not really - we actually celebrate it with 5 famous Canadian UFO sightings that happened between 1951 to 1969. Tune in to hear more about these sightings, along with two government funded UFO investigations that come from Canada. Oh, and apologies to Manitoba. Need a distraction? I got you.
