Today on the Somewhere in the Sky's Podcast, we welcome Greg Egygen, Professor of History and

Bioethics at Pennsylvania State University. He is the author of the new book,

After the Flying Saucers Came, a global history of the UFO phenomenon. This is somewhere in the skies with Ryan's bread. Oh, Welcome everyone to Somewhere in the Skyes and a very very warm welcoming for one of our first guests that ever came on somewhere in the skies,

Greg. I don't know if you remember, but I believe you were my third or fourth guest when I first

started the show. I was... I did not know that at the time. I was so

nervous to talk to you. You and I had maybe just met in Phoenix at a

thing and you agreed to come on the show in the early days and I can't thank you enough for that and I can't thank you enough for coming back on the show so welcome back. I'm really happy to do it. Yeah, well, it's good.

Yeah, well, there's a big reason you're back.

You came out with a brand new book that is really making waves inside and outside of the

UFO community, and I want to get the U.S. community.

And I want to get the title right here.

After the Flying Saucers came, a global history of the U.S.

phenomenon.

So we probably talked about this in our our previous interview, but I like to get people

caught up on who our guests are and why they are doing this why they agreed to come onto a UFO

the podcast right so as a history professor at a very well known school

so obvious question first what got you interested in UFOs and on the flip side

what made you want to write this book about you? Yeah right so well I mean I'm like

a lot of people I'm sure it's like you and just a lot of us, very fascinated with the topic when I was growing up,

read just about everything I could get my hands on when I was a kid and movies, TV, anything

related to UFOs and aliens was on my radar.

And I liked all of it.
