Summary

Today we’re joined by Jesse Michels, host of American Alchemy. A show dedicated to exploring the edges of what we think we know from the mysteries of outer space to the uncharted depths of our oceans, Jesse dives into the growing evidence that we may not be alone. We talk about UFOs spotted near naval bases, the theory that alien craft might be hiding on the ocean floor. We also dive into whistleblowers stepping forward to share what they’ve seen and the real risks they face when going against powerful institutions. We wanted to have this conversation to learn more about some of the wildest stories of our existence.
