We talked facts about alien encounters, why aliens are our dads, shared some UFO stories from our listeners (follow @NatalieDee if you want to participate next time!) and both of us laid out never-before-heard theories about extraterrestrial life. There may or may not be content about kicking ET’s ass. You’ll have to listen to find out.

Here are the videos Natalie mentioned - the first is from 2004 and the second is from 2015. They’re recently declassified Navy footage from fighter planes. Listen to the episode to get the full story of what these UFOs were doing.

Horehound! Rock candy! Candy corn! Salty candy! Drowning ET in a trash can! Throwing books on ET and drowning him! And swedish fish! It’s all about candy, and nothing else, especially not murdering Spielberg aliens from 1982, and it’s on this week’s free episode of Garbage Brain University.
