Mystery Drones & Saucer Nests - Guests : Piia Wirsu & Danielle O’Neal

Mystery drones continue to befuddle government officials, law enforcement, and alarmed residents across at least three states. The FBI admits it has no clue who is behind the persistent drone flights in and around New Jersey. Meanwhile, military officials in the UK remain perplexed by unknown objects that violated restricted airspace over three key air bases. In this episode, Jeremy and George explore possible explanations for the mystery drones and the curious lack of a more forceful response. Investigating the unknown can be daunting for professional journalists. In this episode, two courageous journalists from Australia describe their initial skepticism in pursuing a story about a series of bizarre events that troubled residents of one rural community. Danielle O’Neal and Piia Wirsu, reporters for ABC in Australia, found themselves deep down a UFO rabbit hole after asking questions about the appearance of “saucer nests” linked to UFO sightings. As they dug deeper, they discovered connections between the saucer nests of the 1960s and the crop circles that began appearing in large numbers in the 1980s. Reporting on UFO-related topics comes with its own set of risks, but the two persisted and produced a compelling five-part series that delves into the history of UFO lore and features contributions from some of the best-known investigators Down Under. ••• Check out Danielle and Piia’s EXCEPTIONAL journey of hardcore journalism into the wild wild world of all things UFO and SAUCER NESTS by listening to EXPANSE : UNCROPPED here : https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/expanse/id1635088231 ••• Watch the three-part UFO docuseries titled UFO REVOLUTION on TUBI here : tubitv.com/series/300002259 Watch Knapp's six-part UFO docuseries titled ALIEN INVESTIGATION on NETFLIX here : https://www.netflix.com/title/81674441 ••• GOT A TIP?
