The one where we cap off Season 3 (we really mean it this time!) with an essay on the evolution of ufology and how left-wing and right-wing ufologists (e.g., David Icke and Jim Keith) became almost indecipherable. Inspired by the research of prof. Michael Barkun. This episode also contains a musical hommage to our favorite Montreal-born space traveller, William Shatner.

Brought to you by the sweet and melodic sounds of the Paranoid Planet Abducted Childen's Choir, Virtual Blues Band, and Space Captain Spoken-Word Musical Theatre Coalition.
