Hey there friends and weirdos! This week Nile tells us the story of the Van Meter Visitor, a bizarre pterodactyl-esque cryptid that terrorized small-town Iowa for five days! What sort of arcane ability allows a giant, winged humanoid to produce a bright, blinding light from a horn on its head?

Episode 341 - An Exopolitical Horse Pill...

It Gets Weird ·

2023/02/12

Hey there friends and weirdos! This week we conclude our journey into the overview of exopolitics with an exploration of the so-called "galactic COINTELPRO." Roll your eyes as hard as you'd like, but there seem to be folks out there who consider the covert psychological operation known as COINTELPRO to be a smokescreen of smokescreens. Was the true goal of COINTELPRO to do a big spooky psyop on UFO and exopolitcal truthers? Probably not, but we try to get to the bottom of the story regardless. All
