  • Did A UFO Kill A Hero Pilot? - The Paranormal Podcast 911
    Nov 4 2025
    Jim talks with filmmaker Seth Breedlove of Small Town Monsters about his new documentary Lost Contact. The film explores the 1948 death of Captain Thomas Mantell, a decorated pilot who died while chasing a mysterious object over Kentucky. Seth shares what drew him to the story, why it remains an overlooked case in UFO history, and how it connects to the broader conversation about secrecy, heroism, and unexplained aerial encounters. Jim and Seth also discuss how different areas of the paranormal world often stay in their own lanes and whether they might share more common ground than people think. They touch on government explanations, the media’s treatment of Mantell, and the human side of the story that deserves to be remembered.
