  • Sorry, but…

    I don’t mind the political commentary. I realize that’s probably because I agree with most of it and those who complain about it don’t. If you don’t want to hear it, skip a few seconds. Either way, the high strangeness/ufo/uap information presented, in the manner it’s presented, is excellent and should be appreciated as is. Thank you!

  • Wish the politics would stop

    I don't listen to these types of podcasts to hear politics. Some are unavoidable, like Roswell cover up, but anything else should be left to political podcasts. I like Micah, but not he politics.

  • Getting political

    Loved Micah, but lately he is starting his shows with political propaganda. Please stick to what we tune in for, which is high strangeness.
