In recent years, many media outlets and UFO researchers alike have been enthusiastically presenting “UAP” as the new term of choice by the US government when referring to UFOs. That’s not entirely accurate. In fact, the US military was using “unidentified aerial phenomena” terminology before they used “UFO.”

Welcome to UFO? UAP? WTF? (formerly UNKNOWN)! This episode is the first under the rebranded name. Host Jason McClellan kicks things off with a primer and introduction to the new show by providing an introduction—an honest, unsensational introduction—to UFOs for 2023.

In continuing this year's study of the 1947 Roswell UFO Incident, this episode explores the assertion that, not only did an extraterrestrial-piloted craft crash in the New Mexico desert, but the bodies of those extraterrestrials were also recovered by the military.

Continuing this season's exploration of the 1947 Roswell UFO Incident, on this episode, Jason McClellan relays the basic story of what allegedly transpired back in 1947, laying the groundwork to dive into claims of alien bodies, witness silencing, and other alleged elements of this fascinating historical UFO case.

It's a new year, and a new season of UNKNOWN. We’re doing something different this year on UNKNOWN. Rather than each episode focusing on a new topic, case, person, or current event, we’re focusing the entire year on revisiting the infamous 1947 Roswell UFO crash. This episode provides a look at what's coming this season, as well as a very brief overview of what the Roswell UFO Incident is.

On June 8th, Washington Post congressional correspondent Jacqueline Alemany interviewed Luis Elizondo, the individual who administered the Pentagon’s now-defunct UFO project known as the Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Program. During the interview, Elizondo asserted that China is working to bring the UFO issue to the United Nations. There have been plenty of people opining recently that the topic of UFOs should be addressed at the U.N. Most people don’t realize, however, that it already has been . . . back in 1978. This special UN UFO event and an associated press conference included astronaut Gordon Cooper, and famed UFO researchers Jacques Vallee and J. Allen Hynek. And the individual who produced this UFO presentation at the United Nations is our guest today, veteran UFO journalist Lee Speigel.
