All rights reserved415. The Pentagon and UFOs: Operators of Deception (w/ Micah Hanks)
01:02:37||Season 1, Ep. 415With proclaimed "bombshell" articles recently released by the Wall Street Journal, it came to light, through an investigation by the Department of Defense's UFO office, AARO, that the United States Air Force, had up until 2023, allegedly faked UFO programs, photos, and videos as a "hazing ritual" for military personnel and to mask top secret programs concerning highly advanced man-made weapons and technology. However, these claims by past AARO directors are nothing new. And today's guest had reported on this almost ten months ago on his podcast. But why is this information being made public now? Does it account for all UFOs or even for the claims brought forward by "UFO Whistleblowers" in recent years? We discuss all of this in-depth with the founder and editor-in-chief of the Debrief, Micah Hanks.Follow all of Micah Hanks' work at: https://www.micahhanks.com/Please take a moment to rate and review us on Spotify and Apple.Book Ryan on CAMEO at: https://bit.ly/3kwz3DOPatreon: http://www.patreon.com/somewhereskiesByMeACoffee: http://www.buymeacoffee.com/UFxzyzHOaQPayPal: Sprague51@hotmail.comDiscord: https://discord.gg/NTkmuwyB4FBluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/ryansprague.bsky.socialTwitter: https://twitter.com/SomewhereSkiesInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/somewhereskiespod/Tik Tok: https://www.tiktok.com/@ryansprague51Order Ryan’s new book: https://a.co/d/4KNQnM4Order Ryan’s older book: https://amzn.to/3PmydYCStore: http://tee.pub/lic/ULZAy7IY12URead Ryan’s articles at: https://medium.com/@ryan-sprague51Opening Theme Song by SeptembryoCopyright © 2025 Ryan Sprague.

03:27:29||Season 1We've been going for over 400 episodes now with the main episodes of Somewhere in the Skies. Some of you have been here from the very beginning. Some met us halfway, and some are brand new. So I'm taking a page from the book of That UFO Podcast with our good friend, Andy McGrillen. And I've decided to do some Omnibus episodes that feature collected interviews with a singular return guest or themed collections. I thought this would be a good way to introduce new listeners to some of our fan-favorites and for a walk down memory lane for the veteran Somewhere in the Skies listeners out there.Today, you'll hear 3 different interviews we conducted with prolific author, Nick Redfern. You'll first hear his controversial research on what the Roswell UFO crash may have actually been. We then move to his equally controversial research on the Rendlesham Forest UFO incident. And then we end with a fascinating in-person interview where Nick discusses UFOs and the Kremlin.Find Nick Redfern's books by CLICKING HEREPlease take a moment to rate and review us on Spotify and Apple.Book Ryan on CAMEO at: https://bit.ly/3kwz3DOPatreon: http://www.patreon.com/somewhereskiesByMeACoffee: http://www.buymeacoffee.com/UFxzyzHOaQPayPal: Sprague51@hotmail.comDiscord: https://discord.gg/NTkmuwyB4FBluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/ryansprague.bsky.socialTwitter: https://twitter.com/SomewhereSkiesInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/somewhereskiespod/Tik Tok: https://www.tiktok.com/@ryansprague51Order Ryan’s new book: https://a.co/d/4KNQnM4Order Ryan’s older book: https://amzn.to/3PmydYCStore: http://tee.pub/lic/ULZAy7IY12URead Ryan’s articles at: https://medium.com/@ryan-sprague51Opening Theme Song by SeptembryoCopyright © 2025 Ryan Sprague.
