    What role did Wisconsin play in the Roswell mythos?

    What landed at the Baker's farm in Wisconsin's Northwoods?

  • Wisconsin UFOs - Part One
    2023/11/16

    Wisconsin has played an outsized role in the history of ufology.

    Mike and Jeff discuss the early years of Wisconsin UFO sightings with the "airship" flap of 1897. Can these be dismissed as hysteria or was something otherworldy appearing in the skies over Chicago, Milwaukee, Madison, and as far north as Wausau?

    How did a solitary building on the shores of Lake Geneva play a role in the life of the "Father of Ufology"?

    How did a chance sighting in Barron, WI directly inspire the work of MUFON?

    Did aliens really bring pancakes to a plumber in the Northwoods?

  • The Mad City Murders - The Capital City Slayings
    2023/11/02

    Madison is best known for being a college town and the state capital of Wisconsin.

    It's usually characterized by raucous crowds at Camp Randall, its lakes, reveling on State Street, and the picturesque backdrops of photo-ops like the Capitol Building, the Monona Terrace, the Union Terrace, and Bascom Hill.

    But, few know that Madison was the setting for a string of unsolved murders not too long ago.

    "The Mad City Murders" or "Capital City Killings" spanned fourteen bloody years from 1968 to 1982.

    Mike and Jeff take a deep dive into the string of murders and speculate who might be responsible and what set off the phenomenon.
