120: The Sunderland Family Mysteries with Sam & Sage
🕑 Added 2022-09-23 16:21:03 +0000 UTCOn episode 96, we briefly touched upon the story of the Sunderland family, who'd had a series of encounters with UFOs and aliens in a field near their home. The accounts of Gaynor and Darren Sunderland were very similar; they included strange flying saucers, wobbly walking aliens, and sci-fi ray guns.
Their story first made headlines in 1978 and soon after, investigators began to document continued contacts between these human-like beings, Gaynor and Darren. These contacts included trips to alien worlds, repelling sentient alien planets, and would expand to include "psychic questing," or the act of using chaos magick in the search for historical artifacts and locations.
Sam and Sage from Your Brain on Weird join me to discuss slow moving ray guns, aliens that look like deranged Homer Simpsons, and the quest for the Green Stone!
