| #239 Vampire Shoemaker of Breslau | 29 Aug 2024 | 00:40:44 | |
The paranormal comedy podcast where we probe events of 1591 Breslau, Poland whereby a deceased gentleman just wouldn’t stay deceased. The man passed in what at the time was considered an unholy manner yet was given a holy burial and this, allegedly, resulted in this man becoming stuck between life and the afterlife. Truthfully. The town struggled to understand how to deal with this matter until the man’s wife came clean… It wasn’t even just the man for when the man’s wife passed, assaults on the living continued. Then the man’s previous servant passed on. Assaults continued. How could this one be explained? All that and more on this week’s file.

| #238 Poland’s Most Famous Aliens? Jan Wolski and the Emilcin Abduction of 1978 | 22 Aug 2024 | 00:44:19 | |
The extraterrestrial comedy podcast where we probe Jan Wolski’s alleged abduction. Jan was a farmer in his 70’s during the 70’s. A career around farm chemicals and hard work had left Jan pretty much prepared for anything. Anything but this. For Jan would be accompanied on his cart by two green people who would end up taking Jan to their slab-lab. This one went on to become one of Poland’s most famous extraterrestrial encounters. But were Jan’s balls scanned? Alongside that we ponder whether one would recall time-travelling if one time-travelled? All that and more on this week’s file.

| #229 Curse of Ötzi the Iceman | 20 Jun 2024 | 00:46:22 | |
The extraterrestrial comedy podcast where we probe whether a body preserved from the late neolithic period known today as Ötzi is tracking down and killing those who disturbed Ötzi’s several thousand year resting place. Discovered in September 1991, many who were involved in this frozen discovery have since passed away. Is this one truly a curse, or is nature just taking its natural course? Remember that calling BS on a curse is a BAD MOVE. Alongside all that we ponder… Would Kev and G survive in the Copper Age? All that and more on this week’s probe.

| #139 Roger S and the Room Shifters | 06 Oct 2022 | 00:36:11 | |
The extraterrestrial comedy podcast where we probe Roger, a ten year old with some unusual experiences. Creatures surrounded Roger’s bed and put Roger on a slab, but did they slab Roger? What they did do, is teach Roger the rules of reincarnation. The creatures also showed Roger that NASA are involved somehow, alongside showing Roger some kind of zoo. No, this isn’t Flight Of The Navigator. All that and more on this weeks file.

| #138 Carlos Mercado’s Big Night Out - Puerto Rico’s Underground Alien Base | 29 Sep 2022 | 00:46:22 | |
The extraterrestrial comedy podcast where we probe Carlos Mercado’s big night out. In July 1988, Carlos alleges, truthfully, that a group of aliens knocked on his window and offered to take him for a spin. Carlos would see many amazing sights, allegedly truthfully, but following his experiences Carlos did not dare tell a soul. That is, until Carlos experienced another sighting and met some researchers investigating. What type of aliens are being covered today, we hear you ask… It’s SEXY GREYS. Lots of telepathic aliens have been covered on this podcast but what if that’s wrong? What if aliens aren’t telepathic but are actually ventriloquists? What even happened to Carlos anyway? Before all of that, it is debated as to what Moonwalker would do were he to hear the sound of someone breaking in to his home… Screw your coffee table down, folks. Does Greybeard own a turtleneck? All that and more on this week’s file.

| #136 Giant Gnomes - Wauwatosa Night Visitors (naked Legolas) | 15 Sep 2022 | 00:42:36 | |
The extraterrestrial comedy podcast where we probe a couple of Tosser’s aka Tosa’s (we’re British after all). But what happened to these Tosser’s we hear you ask? Well, they just may have been visited by a group of Gandalf Gnomes playing knock and don’t run on the elderly couple’s door. Aka cherry knocking. Aka gnoming, coincidently. You know that to be a true Gandalf the White, you need a staff but what exactly does that staff do? What if you tap the staff twice? Before we really get in to the case though, we cover the important matters in life. For example, what people do when they retire. What does Guardians of the Galaxy’s Groot’s ballsack look like? Do some people really, really enjoy The Lord of the Rings? Like, really. Back on the case, if an unknown and potentially hostile extraterrestrial figure knocks on your door, you probably shouldn’t open wide to confront it but that is exactly what happened in this probe. But why were the Worzel Gummidge Gandalf gnome aliens here? Was this a prank or was this just literally a social visit? Alongside all of that, we ponder… What is the point of porches? Ultimately, does any of this even matter? All that and more on this week’s file.

Music: Music created via Garageband. Additional music via: https://freepd.com - thank you most kindly good people. Of course when discussing our horrid Lord of The Rings sex cult concept, there was a theme (hopefully) from 2001’s Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring soundtrack, called Concerning Hobbits. The movies were directed by Peter Jackson with music by Howard Shore and we’d like to apologise to everyone involved in the making of these movies for what we came up with in this episode. There was also a tune from show favourite Beetlejuice by Tim Burton called ‘The Book! - Obituaries’ (distributed by Warner Bros. Pictures). This was composed by an absolute genius called Danny Elfman. Finally, there was a track from Kev’s favourite Buffy the Vampire Slayer episode which features The Gentlemen - Hush (season 4 episode 10). This was directed by Joss Whedon. Christophe Beck composed the theme used (which we believe to be called Enter the Gentlemen. | |||
| #135 Flashlight Fernandes - he didn’t do much, but still | 08 Sep 2022 | 00:30:00 | |
The extraterrestrial comedy podcast where we probe farmer Luis Fernandes who heard a buzzing whilst out for a walk. What was it? Bee? Fly? Wasp? Vibrator? Whatever it was, the object was a grower (from Fernandes’ perspective). After encountering the object, Fernandes was confronted by some creatures who shined a flashlight at Fernandes. Fernandes, became unwell. Very unwell. What actually happened? Along the way, we ponder how walkie-talkie’s were named. But what happened to Donkey? All that and more on this weeks file.

| #134 Is The Loch Ness Monster an Alien? The Saga of B-Otters and B-Eels | 01 Sep 2022 | 00:49:34 | |
The extraterrestrial comedy podcast where we probe Scotlands most famous resident, the Loch Ness Monster. There’s of course a lot of visual evidence of Nessie including THAT photo (the Surgeon’s Photograph) but is this evidence honourable and trustworthy? Many believe that the monster is a plesiosaur but is that even possible? This is explored along with other theories. But where did it all begin? Well, this episode covers that too for you see, around 565 CE Saint Columba had what is believed to be the first ever encounter with the Loch Ness monster, at River Ness. Being a saint, would the power of the cross protect Columba? If not a plesiosaur, could Nessie be a buff eel, or a buff otter? What about a Tully Monster and speaking of Tullies, did the historic residents of Atlantis used to ride Tully Monsters? Could dolphins and Nessie be working together using crystals (calling back to a previous episode on dolphins)? Marine biologists will probably be disgusted by what they hear in this episode but sometimes, you’ve just got to open your mind. On the note of opening your mind, what if Pokemon were real and do Magikarp utilise performance enhancing drugs? If you really, really open your mind, just wait until you get a load of what History’s Ancient Aliens think about the origins of the Loch Ness monster… But could these ideas, linked to electromagnetic energies in deep bodies of water, explain the frequency of alien sightings around watery bodies? All that and more on this week’s file.

Music: Music created via Garageband. Additional music via: https://freepd.com - thank you most kindly good people. There was also a segment whereby we uncovered the truth behind the Surgeon’s Photo in which the backing music to this section was Lurking In The Darkness, a tune from the Square Enix masterpiece Final Fantasy 7. The original soundtrack was composed by Nobuo Uematsu and produced by Uematsu along with Minoru Akao. Alongside that, you may have noticed the wonderful Dire, Dire Docks theme from Super Mario 64 courtesy of Nintendo and composed by legendary Koji Kondo. You know by now that we love to stick in special memories from our childhood and this one is particularly beautiful. On the note of beautiful, as we discussed Zora (again), there was a segment including the Zora’s Domain theme from Nintendo’s The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time (originally composed by Kōji Kondō). Finally, you may have heard Nintendo’s Pokemon theme thrown in there as Pokemon was discussed - created via Nintendo, Game Freak and original composer Junichi Masuda from whom’s work the Pokemon series music grew. Thank you, everyone.

| #133 Is Stranger Things Real? Project Montauk | 25 Aug 2022 | 01:03:51 | |
The extraterrestrial comedy podcast where we probe the Montauk Project - the alleged real life inspiration behind Stranger Things. This episode gets a little dark in places. In this episode we are talking government shenanigans, we are talking conspiracies, we are talking mind control, we are talking teleportation, we are even talking time travel. We’ve all heard the rumours of America discovering Nazi gold at the end of World War Two, but have you heard the rumours about where America spent the money? Was contact made and technology exchanged with Reptilian aliens? Was Stranger Things’ Eleven really a Montauk Boy experimented upon in The Montauk Chair during a secret exploration of psychological warfare? Did this experimentation manifest creatures from the minds of children or from another dimension and does this explain the Montauk Monster which washed up on the Montauk shore in 2008? Are the U.S. Department of Energy, who own the nearby Brookhaven National Laboratory, to blame? Can we trust what the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider, a particle accelerator, is up to (just like CERN)? Or is all of this actually being released by government agencies to cover up the truth of what is going on at these sites, involving nuclear activity or possibly LSD experimentation? This episode connects closely to one of our upcoming Patreon exclusive episodes (at time of recording), the Philadelphia Experiment. This may be among the most confusing and hardest to follow episodes we have yet completed but all that and more on this week’s file.

| #132 Pilot Fires at UFO - The Tehran UAP Incident | 18 Aug 2022 | 00:45:31 | |
The extraterrestrial comedy podcast where we probe the pilot who fired at a UFO. Would the UFO let that happen though? If you’re going to see a potential friendly, should you take your weapons or would that antagonise the situation? This episode will answer that very question as the case of Major Jafari of the Imperial Iranian Air Force, whom encountered such a dilemma during 1976 in the skies above Iran, is probed. A question that won’t be answered however is whether there is a difference between radar lock and missile lock. This one contains allegedly true evidence and eye witness accounts. Unless it doesn’t. If we’ve learnt anything on this podcast, it’s that when you have a case with legitimate evidence and the military get involved, soon enough people are saying it’s Jupiter and meteor showers but will that be the case here? Along the way we discover what just happens to be Greybeard’s middle name. Plus what is allegedly truthfully Greybeard’s first name. All that and more on this week’s file.

| #131 The Saga of Sid and the Dick Nosed Aliens | 11 Aug 2022 | 00:32:36 | |
The extraterrestrial comedy podcast where we probe an extraterrestrial species with an unfortunate nose. This tale begins with a romantic walk along the seaside, an area frequented by seagulls back in 1965 (and also today). Seagulls, with more than chippies, on their mind. Believe it or not, there’s also aliens in this one and they sound extremely intimidating. They look… Well, it’s in the title isn’t it. These things basically look like a real life Waluigi starring in adult films. With looks like this, it couldn’t be made up could it? Or could it? All that and more on this weeks file.

| #130 Indiana Greybeard and the Rhodope Skull | 04 Aug 2022 | 00:36:35 | |
The extraterrestrial comedy podcast where we probe the Rhodope Skull. Kev shares his non-podcast experiences as famed archaeologist Indiana Greybeard, as Kev introduces us to the tale of a skull of an allegedly unexplained origin. Aliens? Predator? Aliens Vs Predator? Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull? Is life imitating art here as this Bulgarian mystery is explored? There is a lot of evidence in this episode as the origin of this skull is debated. Moonwalker has all sorts of ideas on what the skull could be made of, though Moonwalker may miss the one idea hiding in plain sight (that the skull is made of skull). Is skullduggery afoot? Is Danny Glover real? It’s pondered as to whether this skull is a remnant of the Atlanteans of Atlantis and their genetic experimentation (an outside theory on the Rhodope Skull). When you think about it, that Atlantis theory isn’t too far from the concept of Predators altering DNA to create the ultimate species and now that we mention it, this skull does kind of look like a… If that theory isn’t accurate, could this one actually be explained by secret military activity, or even Nazi military activity? Or land-octopuses? If only we could just get our hands on this skull and undertake some DNA analysis oh wait, somebody did. But just when answers were about to be reached, things became even more mysterious. Can the answers be found in what remains? Take a leap of faith with the probers as we cover all that and more on this week’s file.

Music: Music created via Garageband. Additional music via: https://freepd.com - thank you most kindly good people. This episode was somewhat inspired by/parodying Indiana Jones and so of course the theme song aka The Raiders March had to be included, composed and conducted via legendary John Williams and courtesy of Polygram, Sony Music and Colombia Records. Hopefully the creators enjoy the shoutout rather than targeting us like the MiB’s. There was also a snippet, as is often the case when visions are discussed, of the Fortune Telling House Theme from the The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past. This is one of Kev’s favourite themes to include with the game having originally been released on the Super Nintendo Entertainment System aka SNES in 1991 (Japan) and 1992 (North America and the United Kingdom/Europe). The music was composed by the legendary Kōji Kondō. Kōji Kondō also composed the very brief treasure sound effect which played when the Rhodope Skull was first discovered, courtesy of 1998’s The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. When discussing the skulls resemblance to Davy Jones from the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise, there was a section of the ‘Shipwrecks’ theme from Sea Of Thieves courtesy of Rare and Microsoft and composed by musical genius, Robin Beanland.

| #228 Trout Lake - The Anonymous Sisters | 13 Jun 2024 | 00:30:07 | |
The extraterrestrial comedy podcast where we probe two sisters at Trout Lake, Canada in 2005. What these people saw was oh so much more than fish. Dolphins, perhaps? Pokemon? Or was it god damn aliens? Alongside that we ponder what keeps Greybeard running during these sleepy times? All that and more on this episode.

| #129 Val Johnson Incident | 28 Jul 2022 | 00:32:06 | |
The extraterrestrial comedy podcast where we probe Val John’s patrol of Marshall County Minnesota in 1979. This patrol was unlike any other patrol for Johnson, saw bright lights in the sky. These lights were not stars, unless they were, but then stars don’t damn well collide with cars! Was Johnson a Deputy Sheriff or an Officer? Marshall County Officer Everett Doolittle can talk to the animals and may also have been Deputy Sheriff. Who was the one true Deputy? We don’t know. But what we do know is that Johnson’s car was absolutely merked. All that and more on this weeks file.

| #128 Maintland Lights and the 1926 Hide and Seek Encounter | 21 Jul 2022 | 00:36:30 | |
The extraterrestrial comedy podcast where we probe the 1926 Maitland Lights. But what if there were more sightings this year? What if they were connected? What if they occurred not just in Brockville, Canada, but in China, Mongolia and the United Kingdom too? Can we prove that numerous sightings that year were connected? Will we even try? One of those connections may be a little-known case from Lancashire, England in the UK during November 1926 - did Henry Thomas get away from whatever Henry saw? Along the way, we ponder what Moonwalker has been guzzling. We also learn a little about prohibition and Harry Houdini (who we have since learned may have been struck before he was prepared). We also, also, explore whether cows lay down when it is going to rain and indeed, whether cows can forecast the weather. Most importantly, who were Nicholas Roerich’s team? Oh and how does all this connect to the Mafia? All that and more on this week’s file.

| #127 Whorsebane - Tin Foil Alien | 14 Jul 2022 | 00:27:35 | |
The extraterrestrial comedy podcast where we probe tin foil hats. Or, allegedly truthfully, entirely tin foil creatures. Yes, there may be aliens in this episode but don’t worry, dear probers, because the police are on hand. Not just any police, for today the experience of one police chief, Greenhaw, is covered. On that note, what is the highest rank one can achieve in the police? Regardless, the police are on hand to investigate a case with elements of Home Alone and E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial. Today, some of the most honourable and trustworthy evidence yet covered on the podcast is uncovered. Along the way, some questions pondered include… Do alien eyes work like our own? When were shell suits invented? When was Thriller released? All that and (possibly not) more on this weeks file.

| #126 Space Penguins of Tuscumbia | 07 Jul 2022 | 00:37:52 | |
The extraterrestrial comedy podcast where we probe Space Penguins. Are penguins really as cute as many people believe? Possibly not, it turns out. You won’t learn this stuff in Happy Feet! Is it possible that ancient penguins developed space flight and left the earth only to then return many years in the future? How would a tough 1967 SOB farmer react should those Space Penguins return on the farmers land? Would the farmer hide, or try to save the moo moo’s? We head on over to Tuscumbia, Missouri in the United States of America to find out. On this episode we may aka will encounter a new form of alien - the grey-green. Greyeen. When you’re dealing with extraterrestrial entities, violence is never the answer. Or is it? Questions we ponder in this episode include whether cars are born and why penguins smell so bad… LOOK AT THAT HOLE. All that and more on this week’s file.

| #125 Jennie Henderson’s Repeat Alien Abduction | 30 Jun 2022 | 00:46:33 | |
The extraterrestrial comedy podcast where we probe Jennie Henderson’s lifetime experiences. Jennie was visited repeatedly and we may discover this pretty early on because on this episode, we begin, with hypnotic regression. Correct, this one is definitely allegedly true. Also true is the fact that humans were chased by dinosaurs. Did Jennie go face to face with a grey though? Sadly, this one does include someone being disturbed whilst watching over a child and someone may allegedly truthfully have part of an alien inserted inside of them. Allegedly. Truthfully. This one also has the characteristic of the most legitimate of alien abductions - lost time, babbyyyyyyy. Along with the case, we get distracted (for a change) debating what we really imagine when we think of aliens. Xenomorph? Independence Day? Little green people simply messing with humans one at a time? All that and more on this weeks file.

| #124 Fort Benning - Military UFO Battle or Army Experimentation? | 23 Jun 2022 | 00:51:02 | |
The extraterrestrial comedy podcast where we probe Fort Benning. Before we get to that, we have the giggles so apologies about that, you may want to skip 1 minutes 50 seconds in. Oopsies. Anyhow… Mystery surrounds Fort Benning - some, believe it to be the site of advanced military experimentation but others believe it to be the location of an allegedly true battle between a brave unit of human military and aliens. Private John was a brave, brave solider and would be up to either challenge - taking the bravest of action. If this one was an alien attack, what form of attack would the aliens choose though and would it involve their 4-5? If it was aliens, what is getting ‘slabbed’ and how will an honourable John cope? Can rats astral project other people? This one has a bit of everything - force fields, clones/doppelgängers, a missile fired at a UFO, even JAWS and in a roundabout kind of way, Kevin Smith. Or, was this a case of mass hysteria after military substance experimentation to see what certain drugs would do and how different soldiers would cope? Ultimately, this one may come down to whether John, is honourable and trustworthy… All that and more on this week’s file.

Music: Music created via Garageband. Additional music via: https://freepd.com - thank you most kindly good people. As we covered possible visions in to the future during this episode, you will also have heard the Fortune Telling House Theme from the The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past (not for the first time on the podcast). That marvellous all-timer video game was released on the Super Nintendo Entertainment System aka SNES in 1991 (Japan) and 1992 (North America and the United Kingdom/Europe). The music was composed by the legendary Kōji Kondō. We love to include little Easter eggs and pop culture references on the podcast and this is one of our favourite semi-recurring themes. There was also a segment from the Halo Theme as we discussed soldiers playing Halo. This theme was composed by Martin O'Donnell and Michael Salvatori and was the theme from Bungie’s Halo: Combat Evolved and subsequent releases, with 343 Industries now at the helm for Microsoft and Xbox Game Studios. | |||
| #123 The Rapture - Thomas Family Get Slabbed | 16 Jun 2022 | 00:31:58 | |
The extraterrestrial comedy podcast where we probe mother and daughter Carol and Helen Thomas and their strange experience, as probed by UFO researcher Tony Dodd aka Hot Dod. Mother and daughter were out for a walk in 1988 Birmingham, England, when suddenly there was a loud hum, a flash of light and then Carol and Helen were wet when it was dry. Repercussions included blisters, nose bleeds and discharge - this one had all the trademarks of an alien abduction. But was it really a case of egg-thieves? Along the way, we debate the Rapture. On that note, would you kindly leave us a five star rating on your podcast player of choice? All that and more on this weeks file.

| #122 Blackbeard’s Hole - The Ghost of a Pirate Legend (Blackbeard part 2) | 09 Jun 2022 | 00:47:14 | |
The extraterrestrial, or today, paranormal comedy podcast where we finish off probing the worlds most famous pirate, Blackbeard (who isn’t an alien, but may be a ghost). Was Blackbeards life sufficient that his spirit, his ghost, was left behind? Or was it his passing that would both make Blackbeard a legend and leave behind unfinished business? Before we get there, we cover what happened to Blackbeard and Gentleman Pirate Steve Bonnet’s pirate partnership. Would it end in plunder or peril? As we get towards the end of this pirates tale, we discover whether Blackbeard would ever give up his pirates life and accept the Kings Pardon. Could a man like Blackbeard really settle down, marry and live the family life? Never trust a pirate! What would the governors do if Blackbeard didn’t settle down? Or even if he did. The governor of Virginia, Alexander Spotswood, was desperate for his man and breaking a little law here and there was just a price that would have to be paid. There’s a battle coming. When the time finally did come, what were Blackbeards real last words? This one has been a deep, deep investigation. All that and more on this week’s file. OH CROW’S COCK! May we just add, Sea of Thieves is available for FREE on Game Pass (though Kev brought the game day one). With a group of friends this game can give you as much fun as anything made in years, it is truly a joy. There are rumours that Greybeard can be found sailing the seas after one too many rums and will tuck, unbeknownst to other crews, before breaking out in to song during the tensest moments.

Music: Music created via Garageband. Additional music via: https://freepd.com - thank you most kindly good people. Again, we utilised some Sea of Thieves music in this one, composed by Robin Beanland with the game courtesy of Rare and Microsoft. Themes included ‘Becalmed’ (which has to be played when you sink your ship - them’s the rules), ’Summon the Megalodon’ and ‘Maiden Voyage.’ As stated in this episode, this truly is Kev’s favourite current game and probably in his top 3 of all time (jumbled alongside Super Metroid and Zelda’s Breath of the Wild and A Link to the Past - Kev pleads with you not to make him pick only 3). Kev adores Rare and sincerely hopes that they don’t mind the little snippets. There was also a tiny midi snippet from the Righteous Brothers’ Unchained Melody. This was a midi as we say, just as we discussed the movie but the original song deserves a shout out for helping many a pottery session turn sexual. Finally, there was a midi snippet of the Pirates of the Caribbean theme called He’s a Pirate, which as we said in the first Blackbeard episode was composed in 2003 by Klaus Badelt and Hans Zimmer (though this was just a midi). Thank you to all for entertaining us and for our audience, please check all these franchises out if you haven’t. Savvy?

| #121 Blackbeard’s Hole - The Ghost of a Pirate Legend (Blackbeard part 1) | 02 Jun 2022 | 00:39:26 | |
The extraterrestrial comedy podcast where we probe a pirate legend from the Golden Age of Piracy, Blackbeard. Whilst we usually cover aliens, Kev stages an intervention in this episode to try to turn Granville’s souring, skeptical mood by regaling Mr Moonwalker with an actual true tale. A pirates life, if you will? Blackbeard, may have started his life as Edward Thatch before that surname was misspelt as Teach in a Newspaper, later becoming the most popular spelling of this pirates allegedly true name. Blackbeard, is believed to have begun his venture towards the pirate haven of Nassau, New Providence in the Bahamas with Benjamin Hornigold, forming the Pirates Republic before Gentleman Pirate Steve Bonnet, whom Moonwalker suspects he may be related to, landed in the lap of Blackbeard. We cover the pirate life of Blackbeard in detail as Blackbeard sets out to become legend. What were Blackbeard’s most daring deeds? Did Blackbeard stick matches in his hair and if so, did his head burn? We also debate pirate names, which by the way are difficult to come up with ‘on the spot’ - is Probe McButt-Smash even a pirates name? What about Captain Prick? Anyway… Was Blackbeard as fearsome as the legends make out? Were Blackbeard and/or his crew carrying sexually transmitted diseases and would this inspire Blackbeard to commit his most notorious and dastardly act? Do we even get to Teach’s, or Blackbeards Hole today? All that and more on this week’s file.

Music: Music created via Garageband. Additional music via: https://freepd.com - thank you most kindly good people. Kev’s favourite modern game is Sea Of Thieves (is BOTW modern?) so of course we also had to include some music from this wonderful, joyous game. Thank you Rare - Kev considers becoming a year one Pirate Legend among his greatest achievements in life. The themes we used included ‘Maiden Voyage’ and ‘Shipwrecks’ - this music is courtesy of Microsoft and they will probably make us take this down but we really wanted to include some pirate easter eggs and bring some attention to this amazing game at the same time. Special mention to Robin Beanland whom composed the game music and whom also had a hand in Donkey Kong Country and Conker’s Bad Fur Day back in the day; another two games around Kev’s personal top 10. “I, am, the Great Mighty Poo…” Of course, we had to include the theme tune to Pirates of the Caribbean too, entitled ‘He’s a Pirate’ which was composed in 2003 by Klaus Badelt and Hans Zimmer for Disney. Again, if Microsoft don’t have our butts and make us remove this, Disney certainly will but it simply felt wrong to do an episode on pirates without the famous pirate theme. Go and watch the films, savvy?

| #120 Gary Wilcox and the Fertiliser Buddies - Newark Valley Farm Affair | 26 May 2022 | 00:34:55 | |
The extraterrestrial comedy podcast where we probe a little farm in Newark Valley, New York in the USA. Moooo. Baaa. Neigh. Etc etc. It’s 1964 so obviously there were monkeys on the farm. There was also a UFO. Is this a Predator visiting? More importantly, why do aliens visit farms? Is it for the fertiliser? Does this explain why cows also go missing (for their cow poops)? This one involves beings and radiation burns so you know that things get serious. Do you want to believe? All that and more on this weeks episode.

Is there a ghostly gorilla roaming the lands of the Shropshire Union Canal? Does this creature stalk those who pass Bridge 39? Is this creature cold? Or is the creature responsible for these several shocks actually the lingering spirit of a deceased workman from the area, as the police of the day seemed to believe? Or perhaps a gorilla on horseback roams the British countryside to this day? Was this thing a Pokemon? Alongside that it is pondered as to what gorilla’s like to do with bananas… HERE HE COMES BANANA SLAMMA KONGO BONGO’s HERO. All that and more on this week’s file.

| #119 Tomino’s Hell - Cursed Japanese Poem | 19 May 2022 | 00:42:46 | |
WARNING: We allegedly truthfully read a real Japanese cursed poem during todays episode.
The paranormal comedy podcast where we probe sweet little Tomino as they allegedly truthfully journey in to hell. But why? Or is this all some kind of twisted metaphor? Before that, Kev gives Granville the choice that Kev, never, had, because yes indeed folks, it is Moonwalkers birthday 2022. Will Moonwalker decide to be brave and read the Japanese curse out aloud, or will Moonwalker choose to take a shot instead? Is there even a choice at all? In this episode we cover what Mr Moonwalker would choose to say to the world of the living, if he were in the world of the deceased. We then move on to discover what would happen once this old Japanese cursed poem, originally written down on paper, was translated and released on to the internet. This one does leave us with some questions. For example, who even was Tomino? How severe is the curse? Does Kev want Moonwalker dead? All that and more on this week’s file.
For those interested, Granville’s rules for this episode were as follows:
That may be confusing so to summarise, G had to do a shot for being cautious or two shots for being too brave.

| #118 Pimp yo Garden - The Amaranth UFO | 12 May 2022 | 00:25:36 | |
The extraterrestrial comedy podcast where we probe a pimped out UFO (which probably wasn’t pimped out). Back in ‘82 in Laxou, France, a man saw a ufo. A man, with a camera. Do we have reliable evidence today? Allegedly truthfully, we may… Along the way we also discover whether aliens fly cars. “Ay yo dawg, you want a goldfish in that car?” We had to cut about 20 minutes of Xzibit quotes out of this episode and the episode still mainly consisted of Xzibit quotes. Did the aliens pimp their rides? Regardless, this one was serious enough to involve the police and we encounter some evidence that simply can’t be explained (but also may have a simple explanation). But would this one turn out to have a more nefarious explanation overall, relating to Henri’s garden preferences? All that and more on this weeks file.

We know on this podcast that children, never, lie, so how do we explain what the children we meet today saw in Japan? Why would an orangutan wear a silver suit? Who’s the whinier little turd - Harry Potter or Voldemort? Is Tinkerbell involved? Is Jabba the Hutt involved? Meanwhile, this episode questions who the aliens are if you land on another planet - who are the ‘lings? I suppose that we should also allude to what this episode actually covers… Two Japanese children may or may not have allegedly truthfully seen an orange/silver UFO. A flying saucer, if you will. Not only that, but creatures, may have descended from the craft. Did these aliens know karate? Would they be confronted by a group of mums? It was down to a school to use their finest tools to investigate. All that and more on this week’s file.

This was conducted by Mr Williams along with William Ross, performed by the London Symphony Orchestra. Magical. Harryyyyyyyyyyyy. Finally, during our Mortal Kombat discussion (Kev 1 - 0 Granville) the Mortal Kombat theme accompanied this segment. We’ve mentioned before that we’re not entirely sure on the credits for this song. The internet tells us that this theme is called Techno Syndrome and was written by Oliver Adams, published via Virgin Records but as always, if that is not accurate, our sincerest apologies. Mr Moonwalker absolutely loves that franchise but please Mr Boon and company, don’t mess with Kung Lao. | |||

But what interrupted this moment and was it an air bus? What would the police do if they became involved? What about the Air Force? Enter Captain James A. Dorsey and his special piece of equipment. Operation Blue Book picked this one up but will the big timers believe it? Well, moderately big timers. Average timers. Ok ok, the little guys. Along the way we wonder who you’d rather see getting jacked by a milking machine? Can a Bull be milked? Do Bulls get jealous? All that and more on this weeks file.

| #115 Aliens Hack Television Broadcasts - Vrillon of Ashtar Galactic Command and Max Headroom’s butt | 21 Apr 2022 | 00:42:58 | |
The extraterrestrial comedy podcast where we probe Vrillon, a representative of Ashtar Galactic Command. We also probe Max Headroom’s bare buttocks. We’ve covered Ashtar before and this is where it led us. If aliens were to make contact with humanity, would it be through radio and television? What happened to Max Headroom once his butt was out? Before all that, we ponder for what reason an individual may take a magazine and venture in to a bush. We also wonder why aliens bring messages of peace around human weaponry - can the aliens see the future or have they just experienced similar in their own past? Moonwalker ponders how aliens may make contact and decides that he has a message for all the aliens unwilling or unable to clearly present themselves to humans… All that and more on this week’s file.

The object, was carrying a mysterious female potentially not of this earth. An extraterrestrial origin you see, is the only possible explanation for red hair. This one gets a little bit fishy in plaices as Kev puns himself out. As the tale moves on, an old man comes, to see what all the fuss is about and develops a theory. The old man knew that there was only one way to deal with these types of incidents… Is this case connected to the Rendlesham Forest incident? Does Japan have a nip-on? Who put a toe in who?

Despite what Mr Moonwalker will have you believe, this man may have been the precursor to all. Well, Van Tassel may not have been the first to see UFO’s as such, but he may have been the first to hear from them. Allegedly truthfully. Or would it turn out that Van Tassel is full of BS? What would Van Tassel do if other people claimed to hear from Ashtar? What is the Integratron? Did Van Tassel and George Adamski cross paths? Before all that, we learn about the best tools to use if you’re carving out delicate rooms underground. Moonwalker teaches us a new allegedly truthful fact about tortoises. We also uncover The Rock Dwayne Johnson’s final form (because The Rock is a Pokemon obviously). All that and more on this week’s file.

We head back to March 1967 as Carroll heads towards some unusual lights in an abandoned farm. What would happen? This one may involve a bullet-shaped object - something mechanical in nature. A rigorous physical examination may or may not take place. Later, or perhaps earlier, the Air Force hear of this one and take action - things get serious. Sort of. Does Moonwalker fill in gaps in the narrative? What was Kevin up to in Vegas in 1967. All that and more on this weeks file.

| #111 Supersonic Spheres of Wales | 24 Mar 2022 | 00:50:45 | |
The extraterrestrial comedy podcast where we probe Supersonic Spheres sighted by many witnesses in Wales. Allegedly. Before we’ve barely introduced the location of todays events (Great Orme/Little Orme), Moonwalker shares some personal woes in the first five minutes. Then as the probe begins, we explore what happened to a family driving down a long and lonesome road. Why would this family incur the wrath of the RAF? What was there a bug? If so, was it a bug of earthly or extraterrestrial origin, or was it a peppercorn? Only the dentist knows. After 1997, we pop back to 1982 and you know that Moonwalker has issues when we head back to ’82. We also touch base in 2015 so this one gets around. You know what that means? Loads of credible evidence. This place is clearly a hot bed of UFO activity (Wales, that is - Greybeard definitely didn’t get confused with a previous probe). All that and more on this week’s file.

But not us, for we are sure that this case involves an alien Bop It. How do you complete Bop It? This question leads down a dark and immature pathway in to the meaning of bop. Let’s bring the word ‘bop’ back! So, urm, yeah… We got really hung up on Bop It today. Anyway, this one entails something metallic in the sky. What could it be? Are the Symes, being watched? Ultimately, this one comes down to whether we’d put our reputation on the line for a John? All that and more on this week’s file.

| #109 Igor Terzic, Barry Macdonald and an Orange Light (Tribute) | 10 Mar 2022 | 00:50:10 | |
The extraterrestrial comedy podcast where we probe Igor Terzic. We also probe Barry Macdonald. Are the tales of these two gentlemen connected? Before that though, we get sidetracked on the facts of Glasgow and the worlds biggest drinking bars. We then get back to Igor, in the middle, of the road… On that note, did Igor drive a 1967 Shelby GT and is this a lovely motor or a pile of rusting trash? Whilst taking this ride, we also ponder whether Moonwalker would make love to a car and whether Greybeard is the Butt Smasher (of House Butt Smash - remember the previous episode). Just to add folks, we are aware that whales don’t really have huge gaping butts. We know whales do mushy scale 5-6 poops and we don’t really think that a human could be digested, pass through and come out of a whale whole. But Moonwalker could. We mean my gosh, have you seen the man? Knight Rider somehow comes up as we move on and we ask you, loyal probers, will Moonwalker review the whole series? We have some time left over after Igor vanishes so we then briefly covered Barry Macdonald and a sighting Barry was able to record due to going on a secluded wander with his lady-friend and coincidently having a video camera set up and ready to go. There’s nothing suspicious there, folks. We watched the UK television show footage courtesy of GMTV before drawing our conclusions. All that and more on this week’s file.

Music: Music created via Garageband. Additional music via: https://freepd.com - thank you most kindly good people. Of course, as we parodied the story we couldn’t resist an instrumental snippet from Kyle Gass and Jack Black’s rocking band Tenacious D’s first single from their self-titled 2001 album, Tribute. Which is not the greatest song in the world, no, it’s just a tribute. That song resides under Epic labels catalogue and was produced by the Dust Brothers. Check it out on all good streaming platforms, what a song! A bit of trivia for our UK listeners - Tribute was never actually released as a single in the UK despite its massive air time and popularity. Alongside that there was an ever so brief snippet from Mario Kart 64’s Toad’s Turnpike courtesy of Nintendo (and composed by Kenta Nagata) as we discussed traffic coming towards Igor. We also included, mainly for Moonwalker’s benefit, a snippet of the Stuart Phillips composition, the theme from 1980’s television staple Knight Rider starring David Hasselhoff. Wikipedia also lists Glen A. Larson as a composer of that iconic theme. | |||
| #108 Eat your Vegetables - Green Children of Woolpit and the Georgia Stalks | 03 Mar 2022 | 00:42:16 | |
The extraterrestrial comedy podcast where we probe two mysterious green children who turned up, unexplained, in Woolpit, Suffolk. The 1100’s aren’t the best-recorded of times but this tale is recorded none the less. Where did these young children come from? Why were they green? Was it BROAD BEANS? Do forest people exist? If not, why don’t these children like pizza? Is this case evidence that you are indeed what you eat? Have you ever heard of an undercow? There’s a lot of learning to be had on this episode as we explore theories of the extraterrestrial, parallel universes, an underworld, forest folk, Planet X, underwater civilisations aka Wakandawater and people from other earthly lands. Ever heard of House Butt Smasher? After all of that, we briefly cover Fred Reagan and the Georgia Stalks - peculiar aliens of which information is scarce. Anyone fancy some asparagus? All that and more on this weeks file.

| #107 Hamilton: (Not) An Extraterrestrial Musical | 24 Feb 2022 | 00:52:01 | |
The extraterrestrial comedy podcast where we probe Alexander Hamilton. No, not that one. This one, you haven’t heard of because this is a probe we have not done. Well, we have because you’re reading the show notes for it, but we hadn’t. Alexander Hamilton, his name was Alexander Hamilton, an honourable and trustworthy pillar of the Leroyyyyyyyyyy community in 1897. But the question is, when Hamilton’s cow was taken, would Hamilton throw away his shot? Or do we mean axe? This case has some of our favourite UFO features - a craft, cow abduction… Well, that’s it really. Oh and a bloody good alternative hypothesis. We love these olden times cases. Were locals experimenting on cows with… Gas… Urm… Nope. I refuse to put that theory down in writing. A more credible thought - do cows know karate? Hamilton was so honourable that he was vouched for by a dozen further honourable and trustworthy citizens, but were they in the field where it happened? If you want to know what happened, you better be willing to wait for it. All that and more on this week’s file and we hope that you’ll be back after what we did at the end here…

When discussing Lon Lon Ranch, you may have noticed the Lon Lon Ranch theme from 1998’s The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, composed by Kōji Kondō. This game was and remains wonderful. Towards the end in exploring the ‘club’ theory, you may have noticed Lurking In The Darkness from the Final Fantasy 7 original soundtrack. This was composed by Nobuo Uematsu and produced by Uematsu and Minoru Akao. The Final Fantasy 7 soundtrack was released on 10/02/1997 and later re-released directly by Square Enix on 10/05/2004. A special thank you, the most special thank you for this episode in fact, must go to Lin-Manuel Miranda as well as the Original Broadway Cast of Hamilton (via Atlantic Records) for both their music and the inspiration for massive chunks of this episode (especially that closing number). Thank you. If by some peculiar series of events any of those involved in the production of Hamilton ever stumble across this podcast episode, we sincerely hope that you enjoyed our take and were not offended in any way, shape or form by this alien parody because we love Hamilton. | |||
| #106 A Stoners Tale Part 2 | 17 Feb 2022 | 00:45:57 | |
The extraterrestrial comedy podcast where we probe the Stoner’s, again. Check last weeks episode if this is your first time joining us because this episode is part 2 of a two-parter in to a couple, called, Stoner. We see where the rabbit hole (or is that whole) goes. Will Moonwalker explain Humpty Dumpty? How does this case connect to a sex-chair? On that note, what is a sex-chair? Did grandad throw a pigskin a quarter mile? Sex-chair. I wonder if you Google sex-chair, one day this episode will show up in the results? Anyhow… A tall, skinny figure with skinny arms. That can’t be anything but aliens, right? Three shades of alien. It’s time to conclude on these pillars of the community. Will the MiBbins get in to MUFON? All that and more on this weeks file.

| #105 A Stoners Tale | 10 Feb 2022 | 00:37:06 | |
The extraterrestrial comedy podcast where we probe a couple of Stoners. That’s right, it’s a couple with the surname Stoner. What were you thinking? We begin todays episode in West Virginia with Humpty Dumpty and an incredible memory. There is also an incredibly calm Grand Papa who has seen it all. Apologies for getting sidetracked back in ‘82 on this one. Anyway... Denise Stoner, would recall much of todays case via hypnotic regression with Kathleen Marden. Lost time. Mysterious lights. Jelly-like substances. Creatures not of this world. Links to earlier probes. This one has it all. One question that pops up today though… Are aliens blue da ba dee da ba daaai? This one, may get dark so apologies about that but we cover all that and more on this weeks file.

| #104 German Sky War - Nuremberg UFO Battle of 1561 | 03 Feb 2022 | 00:42:57 | |
The extraterrestrial comedy podcast where we probe the allegedly truthful space battle in the skies above Nuremberg, Germany in 1561. But before that, we learn the REAL words to Prince’s classic, Purple Rain, along with the dangerous and horrid Purple Rain drinking game. Don’t do it, folks. Anyway… We begin the actual case today with a bang. Well, more of a pop (and we’re not talking about Moonwalkers balls). Because we have some visual evidence. Evidence of a possible war above Earth which definitely couldn’t have been between Earthlings. So was this an alien battle? Or was it actually a warning from God? A demonstration of God’s wrath should their people not be honourable and trustworthy. Or were more natural forces at play? Meanwhile, tune in and you can learn all about the allegedly truthful 1500’s German farm, Farm Farm. Finally, a question… Are Greybeard and Moonwalker honourable and trustworthy enough to wield Excalibur or the Master Sword? All that and more on this week’s file.

Music: Music created via Garageband. Additional music via: https://freepd.com - thank you most kindly good people. Of course, when mentioning Lon Lon Ranch we had to sneak in the Lon Lon Ranch theme from from 1998’s The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, composed by Kōji Kondō. Later on, we also attached some Legend of Zelda: Link to the Past music also by Kōji Kondō - the Lost Woods, Master Sword and Hyrule Overworld themes. This accompanied our discussion of pulling the Master Sword, or Excalibur, from its resting place. What a moment. Before that however, because it just felt right, we opened today’s case with a clip of the Prelude theme from the wondrous Fantasy 7 original soundtrack, composed by Nobuo Uematsu and produced by Uematsu alongside Minoru Akao. During Moonwalker’s button-popping strip, we utilised a very quick snippet from The Stripper instrumental by David Rose, recorded originally in 1958 and courtesy of label MGM. We obviously don’t own the rights to this and used a quick clip as part of a self-satirical section, please don’t send your agents for us. | |||
| #103 Air Force Gone | 27 Jan 2022 | 00:33:04 | |

What happened to the blip? Was it swallowed? When the Air Force start retracting statements you know that it’s suspicious. 23. 22. Zebra. But who is Soo Locks? All that and more on this weeks file.

| #102 Stonehenge and George O’Barski 1975 | 20 Jan 2022 | 00:52:39 | |
The extraterrestrial comedy podcast where we probe George O’Barski’s Stonehenge sighting. No, not that Stonehenge. The other one. The apartment complex in New Jersey. Before we get in to that we cover whether it would be wise to have a Predator as a pet. This one starts out like any typical sighting but rather than run and hide, George decided to get in closer to probe. George was greeted by the sight of… Lifeforms. Were the lifeforms seen in todays episode Alakazam’s? Or Tonberry’s? On that note, what do Tonberry’s eat? Another question asked today is whether a glass window can shatter on its own? How does this relate to Moonwalker being probed? Yes, today we cover the fact that Moonwalker has definitely been probed. The case we cover today has had MUFON and CUFOS all over it. But why didn’t it make national headlines? All that and more on this week’s file.

Music: Music created via Garageband. Additional music via: https://freepd.com - thank you most kindly good people. Nintendo’s Pokemon theme was also snuck in today - thank you to Nintendo, Game Freak and the original composer Junichi Masuda from whom’s work the Pokemon series music grew - another franchise that enlightened our childhood and which we reference regularly on the show. We couldn’t resist sticking in a snippet from the Final Fantasy 7 original soundtrack, Let The Battles Begin, composed by Nobuo Uematsu and produced by Uematsu and Minoru Akao. Because we’d utilised that, later on we snuck a second clip from the soundtrack entitled Lurking In The Darkness. Finally, because we got all nostalgic after the other two themes, the sad Aerith’s Theme was also included at the end. To this day this one still hits us right in the feels. The Final Fantasy 7 soundtrack was released on 10/02/1997 and later rereleased directly by Square Enix on 10/05/2004. This Playstation game is in almost everybody’s top 5 video games of all time list so thank you, Square Enix, on behalf of the world. Just before Aerith’s Theme, whilst Mulder’ing up, the famous X-Files tune from the television series played. The famous instrumental, usually known as ‘The X-Files’ was composed by Mark Snow. Thank you to Mark Snow and also show creator Chris Carter - whilst we parody at times, the show was a huge inspiration for this podcast as well as much of the modern paranormal field in general. | |||
| #101 The Honourable John‘s | 13 Jan 2022 | 00:33:17 | |
The extraterrestrial comedy podcast where we probe honourable John and honourable John. Yes, that’s right, two honourable John’s. There may even have been a third but unfortunately we don’t get to meet him. This episode takes us way back (or is that waaaaaay back) to 1988. Will the subjects of todays case be truly honourable and trustworthy? Will this be aliens, or will this be witchcraft? Meanwhile, tune in today and you’ll also learn how to really do a Tequila shot. Can aliens cure substance addiction and encourage body hair growth? Find out all this and more on this weeks file.

| #100 Here Come the Men in Black | 06 Jan 2022 | 01:18:19 | |
The extraterrestrial comedy podcast where we probe the Men in Black. Wow, one hundred episodes! Thank you for joining us on this ride. For episode 100, we thought rather than patting each other on the back, we’d bring to you a feature length presentation on our previous employers, the MiB. The Mibs. We roll through several cases associated with these nefarious individuals from Harold Dahl’s famous account in 1947 all the way to a Niagara Falls hotel sighting in 2008. Along the way, Moonwalker realises that he’s the sceptical one and has a change of heart. Can Moonie keep it up? We discover the real, serious business that the Men in Black cover. We ponder whether MiB’s wear human suits or simply take over human consciousness? On the note of suits, is there a MiB uniform and as a new MiB is it the last suit you’ll ever wear? We ask ourselves why dogs may not like MiB’s and come up with an allegedly truthful answer. How does this all tie to Dan Aykroyd? All that and more on this week’s lengthy, large, monster of a file.

Music: Music created via Garageband. Additional music via: https://freepd.com - thank you most kindly good people. Meanwhile, at the mention of Master Chief, we couldn’t help but pop in a clip of the famous Halo Theme. This was composed by Martin O'Donnell and Michael Salvatori and was of course the theme from Bungie’s Halo: Combat Evolved (as well as subsequent releases, with 343 Industries now at the helm courtesy of Microsoft and Xbox Game Studios). Not for Moonwalker so much but Greybeard has wonderful memories of playing through Halo 3 with a friend from university (who grenade-jumped in to the scarab) meanwhile, Greybeard still hasn’t recovered from the emotional impact of playing through Halo: Reach and in particular, the last stand. For the second time in the podcast, you will also have heard the first section of the Lemmiwinks song (The Ballad of Lemmiwinks) from South Park season 6 episode 14. Thank you to Trey Parker and Matt Stone along with everyone at South Park Studios once again for clearly inspiring our humour for decades to come. On the note of inspiration, purely because Greybeard absolutely loves the franchise, we included the Fortune Telling House Theme from the The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past which was released on the Super Nintendo Entertainment System in 1991 (Japan) and 1992 (North America and the United Kingdom/Europe). The music was composed by series legend Kōji Kondō. A bit of But It Was Aliens trivia for you - Greybeard has played through A Link to the Past to completion more than any other game he has ever owned. It holds up. Following on from that, The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time’s Shop Theme was also utilised, again composed by Kōji Kondō. We love Nintendo.

| #225 World's Best Pirate Cursed by a Witch - Black Sam Bellamy and the Witch of Wellfleet | 23 May 2024 | 00:55:16 | |
The extraterrestrial comedy podcast where we probe someone who is officially the most successful pirate in history, Black Sam Bellamy. Black Sam came from humble beginnings, a young British Navy sailor who turned treasure hunter in order to secure the marriage of Sam’s true love (Sam had to get rich or die trying). Things went a bit sideways however when Sam found that the 1715 Treasure Fleet had already been recovered (well, the easy bits at least) meaning that Sam had no quick and easy treasure to achieve his goal. What’s a skilled man of the sea to do when in need of money? That’s right, PIRATE. Black Sam Bellamy would come in to contact with famous pirates Henry Jennings, Benjamin Hornigold and Blackbeard and join the Flying Gang but Sam would become more successful than all of them, depending upon how you define success… From storming ships naked to deceiving ships with fake flags, Sam earned well over one hundred million dollars in today’s currency. At the height of Sam’s success however, Sam longed for love. Allegedly. Truthfully. At this very same moment, it is alleged that Sam’s love, who had encountered misery whilst waiting for Sam, placed a curse on Sam. Sam, unaware of the misery of his love, would one day return but this day may just have been Sam’s last. Was witchcraft responsible? Alongside that, we ask whether a pirate can be truly good if they put everything to the vote… All that and more on this week’s file.

We closed out the episode with the usual ’Staff Roll’ aka credits theme from Nintendo’s 1990-1992 Super Mario World from the Super Nintendo Entertainment System, composed by Hero of Sound Kōji Kondō.

The extraterrestrial comedy podcast where we probe Krampus. Krampus may well predate the year zero yet Krampus has become the somewhat twisted counterpart to Saint Nicholas. How did they become pals? What’s the difference between Saint Nicholas, Santa Claus and Father Christmas? Who were the parents of Krampus? Can you fight Krampus with the gifts Krampus brings? How many Krampus, or Krampi, even are there? What does Santa like to eat whilst doing the rounds? These are just some of the questions we ponder today. But not only do we ponder, we also have some legitimate video evidence to analyse today to which you will find the links below. Warning: the second piece of footage, is vicious. Along the way we also explore some of Greybeard’s employment history (you can’t prove it). What is the best slang word for penis? All that and more on this week’s file. Christmas hog for one and all.

You may also have noticed amongst the standard Christmas folly, a rendition of Frederic Chopin's Nocturne No.2 in E-flat Major. Chopin passed away in 1849 and so this music is now in the public domain. This song brings back happy memories for Greybeard as it is in the opening of Kev’s favourite Christmas movie, Bad Santa starring Billy Bob Thornton and Tony Cox and directed by Terry Zwigoff. What. A. Movie. We also snipped in an extremely swift clip from the themes to the original animated Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles series, composed by Chuck Lorre and Dennis Challen Brown and from the theme to He-Man and the Masters of the Universe, composed by Shuki Levy, Haim Saban and Erika Lane courtesy of Mattel. Right after those, there was a clip from the theme tune to the animated television series Thundercats, composed by Bernard Hoffer and owned by Warner Bros since 1989. They don’t make animated series like they used to! Finally, we included two songs from one of our well-documented favourite ever video games - The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. The Title Theme and the Legend of Hyrule theme. These themes were composed by Kōji Kondō. Thank you to all the folks behind Zelda from Nintendo once again.

| #97 Fight in a Forest - Dr Reed’s Extraterrestrial Encounter | 16 Dec 2021 | 00:42:36 | |
The extraterrestrial comedy podcast where we probe Dr Reed whom encountered an alien in a forest. Today Moonwalker changes and brings Greybeard a serious case as well as a bone. We visit a beautiful, tranquil place in 1996 that could have been created by Bob Ross. But bad things can happen in beautiful places. Dr Reed, in this beautiful place, was prepared with stick in hand, for a bear. But what appeared in front of Dr Reed, wasn’t a bear. So Dr Reed bopped it one. But what would Dr Reed do next, aware that the potential evidence from this encounter could change the world? One important question to ask through all of this… Was Dr Reed really a doctor, or a Reed, at all? All that and more on this weeks file.
