681. Professor Simon Holland on UFOs and more
🎙️ Martin interviews Professor Simon Holland in a wide-ranging discussion exploring Rendlesham Forest, government secrecy, and the growing body of evidence pointing toward non-human intelligence. 🔍 Simon shares insights into why certain locations—like Rendlesham, Skinwalker Ranch, and Lourdes—are hotspots for unexplained phenomena, describing them as having a “thin veil” between dimensions. He connects ancient history, cryptid sightings, and UFOs in Suffolk, England, long before the military arrived. 🇺🇸 The conversation delves into the Rendlesham Forest incident, the injuries suffered by U.S. servicemen like John Burroughs, and revelations from the MOD’s Condign Report, which confirmed UAP encounters and injuries at RAF Bentwaters and Woodbridge. 💥 Simon presents startling claims that the Department of Energy (DOE)—not the Pentagon or Navy—may be behind secretive aerospace technologies, including man-made Tic Tac–like craft developed using advanced materials like metallic aerogel. He explains how some sightings could be linked to these high-altitude surveillance platforms, while others defy any known human tech. 🛰️ He raises questions about global responses to the UFO phenomenon, praising France and the EU for transparency while criticizing U.S. secrecy. The discussion also touches on the Vatican’s openness to extraterrestrial life and the silence of institutions like SETI and Breakthrough Listen, who may be holding back early signals of alien contact until full confirmation. 👽 Simon concludes with a provocative thought: Earth may not be particularly special—but we might be troublesome enough to warrant monitoring. Don’t miss this deep dive into high strangeness, government coverups, and the emerging scientific paradigm that suggests we’re not alone.Show NotesSupport the Show & Stay Connected! 👉 Join us on Patreon — Get ad-free podcast episodes (for any media player) for as little as $2/month:https://www.patreon.com/MartinWillisPodcastUFO🛸Did you have a UFO/UAP Encounter?

AudioBlog- A "Typical" UFO Abduction Case Before it was Typical
UFO abduction accounts of grey aliens taking people from their homes and examining them in their spaceships started becoming typical after the publication in 1981 of Budd Hopkins’s book Missing Time. However, there is an early account with these elements in the 1977 book Abducted!: Confrontations With Beings From Outer Space by the founders of the Aerial Phenomena Research Organization, Coral and Jim Lorenzen. The case was investigated by APRO Field Investigator Kevin Randle and APRO Consultant and Director of Research Dr. James Harder. Years later, Randle presented his thoughts on the case, which provide some insight into how the typical UFO abduction narrative might have evolved. Read more →

AudioBlog: A 1989 UFO and Occupant Report From Voronezh, Russia
In 1989, the world was stunned by reports from Voronezh, Russia: a giant glowing UFO lands in a city park, towering aliens with three eyes step out alongside a mysterious robot. Witnesses claimed beams of light, children were paralyzed or turned invisible, and Soviet scientists reported "rocks not found on Earth." But is it real, or sensational journalism gone wild during Russia's glasnost era? In this video, we break down the famous Voronezh UFO landing of October 9, 1989, as reported by Tass, Associated Press, and even The New York Times. We explore the original Soviet accounts, the explosion of international coverage, and the involvement of schoolchildren witnesses whose stories grew more elaborate over time. You'll learn about: The “biolocation” methods used to "confirm" the landing site The alleged alien and robot encounter details How the story evolved in Western media The possible link to Spain's notorious UMMO Affair Jacques Vallée's investigation in Russia The real truth behind the so-called KGB involvement and Russian "occult" researchRead the original Blog by Charles Lear Here: https://podcastufo.com/blog-a-1989-ufo-and-occupant-report-from-voronezh-russia/#more-6824UFO Books by Charles Lear: https://tinyurl.com/mptc57f2

AudioBlog: A Lessor Known Australian UFO Case From 1971
As far as well-known Australian UFO cases go, a 1988 report of an encounter in a desolate area known as the Nullarbor by the Knowles family, a mother and her three adult sons, is on a lot of lists, including Wikipedia. According to the article headlined “UFO Encounter on Nullarbor Plain Reported” in the January 21, 1988, Canberra Times, the family told police in Ceduna that they were chased by a UFO after watching it chase a truck and a car going in the opposite direction. They reported that it picked up their car, shook it violently, and then put it back down facing the other way with such force that one of the tires was blown. Sergeant Fred Longley of the Ceduna Police is quoted as saying “We have to take it seriously, there’s no reason why we shouldn’t. There were too many witnesses, the car was damaged and was covered in ash from the object and they were clearly shaken up.” While there has been much speculation as to what might have happened (and some doubt as to the validity of the story) there was another instance in Australia in 1971, that not only involved a UFO reportedly picking up a car, but seemingly carrying it for long distances.

678. Lori Rehfeldt | Precursor to the Rendlesham Forest Incident
In this compelling episode of Podcast UFO, Martin Willis speaks with Lori Rehfeldt, author of Rendlesham Lone Ranger: Precursor to the Rendlesham Forest Incident. Stationed at the 81st Security Police Squadron at RAF Bentwaters in England, Lori experienced her own UFO encounter in February 1980—months before the now-famous Rendlesham Forest Incident in December 1980, which occurred after she had left the base. Unaware of the second event at the time, she wouldn’t learn about it until discovering a book on the subject in 1997. Lori’s memoir is a unique blend of personal testimony and deep investigation, offering an insider’s view of enigmatic military assignments and unexplained phenomena. From dimensional energy shifts to interactions with non-human intelligences, she takes readers on a road map through her experiences at both RAF Bentwaters and RAF Woodbridge. As an intuitive and empathetic observer, Lori weaves together personal insights, historical context, and patterns that hint at an ancient, ongoing connection between the land and the mysterious forces that shape our reality. Don’t miss this thought-provoking interview about memory, mystery, and the deeper layers of the UFO phenomenon.🔹 Get the book: Rendlesham Lone RangerSHOW NOTES Support the Show & Stay Connected! 👉 Join us on Patreon — Get ad-free podcast episodes (for any media player) for as little as $2/month:https://www.patreon.com/MartinWillisPodcastUFO🧢 Podcast UFO Merch (Shirts, Hats & More):page=1&limit=120&sort_by=category_order&sort_order=asc📬 Sign Up for Our Weekly Newsletter — Get updates on upcoming guests, blog posts, and more:http://eepurl.com/LPHKD🌐 Our Website:https://podcastufo.com📱 Follow us on Social Media:Twitter (X): https://x.com/PodcastUFOFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/PodcastUFO📺 Subscribe on YouTube (It’s Free!):https://www.youtube.com/user/PodcastUFO?sub_confirmation=1📧 Contact:producer@podcastufo.com

AudioBlog: UFO Over Wanaque, New Jersey
New Jersey, as everyone in UFO world is aware, was ground zero for a full-on flap involving what most witnesses reported as mysterious drones. What’s noteworthy is that this same region was where residents panicked during Orson Welles’s radio production of The War of the Worlds in 1938. It’s also the area where there were two flaps in 1966, one in January and another in October, with the most dramatic reports centered around the Wanaque Reservoir. In this blog, we’ll focus on the January flap. At that time, several different investigators arrived on the scene, and as a result, there are several different versions of what happened.Read more →
