Summary

On episode 27 of SOMEWHERE IN THE SKIES, Ryan first discusses the recent announcement made by Tom DeLonge regarding his new endeavor, the To the Stars Academy of Arts and Science. The academy has mobilized a team of the most experienced, connected and passionately curious minds from the US intelligence community, including the CIA and Department of Defense that have been operating under the shadows of top-secrecy for decades.   The team members all share a common thread of frustration and determination to disrupt the status quo, wanting to use their expertise and credibility to bring transformative science and engineering out of the shadows and collaborate with global citizens to apply that knowledge in a way that benefits humanity. Then Ryan speaks with Aaron Mahnke, creator, and host of the critically acclaimed LORE Podcast. With the recent release of the Amazon television adaptation, Mahnke and Ryan discuss the power of storytelling and that the mysteries of humankind can often be much scarier than anything we could conjure up in our minds. Guest Bio: Aaron is the writer, host, and producer of Lore, as well as the author of a number of supernatural thrillers. Aaron has a deep love of the mysterious and frightening that began with Unsolved Mysteries and The X-Files - a love that continues to this day. Basically, he's a nerd for anything unexplainable or supernatural. He lives with his family in the historic Boston area, in the very heart of Lovecraft Country and the epicenter of the Salem witch trials. This episode is brought to you by HelloFresh.
