UFO expert researcher Ryan Sprague returns, and there’s A LOT to unpack… from viral “aliens are real” comments by Barack Obama to Donald Trump promising full UFO file declassification to the White House quietly buying aliens.gov. Ryan breaks down the latest congressional UFO hearings, whistleblower claims about secret “legacy programs,” and the push to expose private aerospace companies allegedly working on recovered non-human craft. He dives into the mysterious disappearance of Air Force General Neil McCasland, his connection to Tom DeLonge, and what it could mean for disclosure. There’s talk of UFO crashes in Brazil, recovered alien bodies, and the U.S. allegedly retrieving off-world tech. Ryan also shares details about the Calvine UFO photo (the clearest image ever captured) and the decades-long cover-up behind it. Plus, what’s really happening in Hollywood with Steven Spielberg, upcoming “disclosure” movies, and whether entertainment is being used to prepare the public. And Ryan explains the Bob Lazar S4 story, reverse-engineering alien craft, and a new documentary recreating the inside of a secret facility. There’s also the strange new interstellar object “3I Atlas,” and why some scientists think it could be artificial. And if that’s not crazy enough… could UFOs actually be tied to AI? Is the real “alien invasion” coming from technology we created ourselves?

Jamie from True Crimecast returns to break down one of the most calculated and terrifying killers in modern history – Israel Keyes. He didn’t have a victim type, he didn’t follow patterns, and he didn’t stay in one place. Instead, he buried “kill kits” across the country, flew city to city, and randomly selected victims while carefully studying law enforcement tactics to avoid capture. Jamie explains how Keyes operated for years without detection, the shocking methods he used to plan and execute his crimes, and how one single mistake in Anchorage involving victim Samantha Koenig ultimately led to his arrest. From cross-country murder trips and bank robberies used to fund his crimes, to the disturbing details that surfaced after his capture, this case is as methodical as it is horrifying. Plus, why this case remains so chilling, how many victims investigators believe there could be, and the unanswered questions Keyes took with him to the grave.

It’s Friday the 13th… so what better day to dig into the real story behind the most infamous date on the calendar? Chris Jericho welcomes geologist, forensic investigator, and history researcher Scott Wolter to break down the origins of Friday the 13th, the truth about the number 13, and why it became one of the most feared superstitions in the world.

He also discusses his controversial research into the Kensington Runestone, hidden history connected to the Templars, the discovery of the Talpiot tomb in Jerusalem, and why Friday the 13th still sparks fear, fascination, and superstition more than 700 years later.
