Not If but When: UFOs & UAPs with Aliengirl111

UFO Youtuber Aliengirl111 joins the pod tonight for an episode discussing UFO and Unidentified Aerial Phenomena exclusively.

We discuss everything from Little Green Men to what Trump knows to Mormonism as it relates to the UFO world.  

 

It's a decidedly non sports wagering centered Taking the Over.
