Summary

👽 In this episode of Omnibus, we dive into the mystery of alien abductions, exploring the groundbreaking work of John Mack and Budd Hopkins, and revisiting famous cases like Travis Walton, Betty & Barney Hill, the Brooklyn Bridge abduction, and the Rua, Zimbabwe school encounter. From missing time and hybridization programs to transformative spiritual experiences, we examine how these stories connect, why governments and intelligence agencies remain entangled in the debate, and what these encounters might reveal about UFOs, UAPs, and the human experience.
