Mac Tonnies's Cryptoterrestrial Hypothesis is a theory first expounded upon in Tonnies's noted book by the same name. It refers to a theory that postulates that our ET visitors are not really what they appear to be, but are actually more humanoid, and more terrestrial than extraterrestrial in nature. In this episode of The Paranormal Nothing podcast, we will discuss Tonnies's seminal work, as well as analyze the validity of this potential theory as an explanation of the origin of the "Others."

Recently, UFO social media has been ablaze regarding the term "non-human intelligences". Some legitimate investigators believe that the "phenomenon" is more than just a physical manifestation, but might really be interdimensional in nature. This is where terms such as consciousness and even crypterrestrials have come into play. In this episode of The Paranormal Nothing podcast, we will take a look at the origins and connections within these labels.

I came across an article recently that talked about how a data scientist had proposed 14 reasons why humanity had not been contacted by aliens. In this podcast episode, I go over these as well as give my opinion/perspectives on this and on the connections with data science/search for ET. 

A quick review of the biographical book on Dr. John Mack, written by Ralph Blumenthal. 

The nearest star system to Earth is Alpha Centauri, composed of three stars (including Proxima Centauri - the closest star to Earth, other than our Sun). We know that there are planets orbiting the stars of Alpha Centauri. Could one or more of the Alpha Centauri stars harbor Earth-like planets? And what are humanity's plans for exploring this system? And... what are its connections to E.T.?

The idea of directly messaging a potential extraterrestrial civilization (sometimes called METI, or active SETI), is a topic for much debate. What is the history of METI? What are some questions that should be asked before executing such a transmission? And more importantly, what are the chances of a not-so-friendly response to our interstellar message?

The concept of a Dyson Sphere was first proposed in a scientific way by late physicist Freeman Dyson. It consists of an idea where an advanced extraterrestrial civilization would have reached the technological level to build a structure (called a Dyson Sphere) that could extract the energy from a star or group of stars. Such activity might be readily detectable by Earth's instruments. What is the history of the concept of the Dyson Sphere, and how close are we to actually detecting one at this time?

On August 15, 1977, astronomers at the Big Ear observatory at Ohio State University captured what appeared to be an artificial radio transmission coming from the direction of the Sagittarius constellation. What is the backstory on this alleged extraterrestrial signal (known as the Wow! Signal)? What made astronomers that detected it so sure that it was not just static or noise coming from natural phenomenon? And more importantly, has ever been detected again?
