The Micah Hanks Program

In 1973, a bizarre encounter allegedly unfolded on the Isle of Wight, involving two children who claimed to meet an odd, clown-like humanoid figure near Sandown, England. Speaking in odd phrases and appearing to inhabit a strange, makeshift dwelling, the being called itself "All Colors Sam," and despite the obscure origins of the tale, it would eventually gain a cult following within the annals of UFO and high-strangeness lore, remembered today as the story of Sam "The Sandown Clown."
Joining us this week on The Micah Hanks Program to discuss this case from ufology's "Odd Files" is Ryan Whalen, a Brooklyn-based researcher, science reporter, and college instructor who holds an MA in History and a Master of Library and Information Science with a certificate in Data Science. Whalen, who also co-hosts the podcast "Cease to Exist", reveals what he and his colleagues recently uncovered about this bizarre 1973 urban legend. What new details have emerged about the case, and one of the alleged witnesses to these eerie events that have since become a mainstay in modern UFO folklore?

In recent weeks, a growing number of news outlets have picked up the mysterious story of missing scientists, contractors, and government officials associated with some of the United States' most secretive technologies who have vanished or died under unusual circumstances. As the web of incidents continues to expand, current theories claim that nearly a dozen scientists may be involved, all with possible links to UFO secrets. So what is really going on?
This week on The Micah Hanks Program, we examine the latest UFO conspiracy theory to gain traction in the mainstream media, which has even led to purported briefings at the White House. What does a closer examination of the situation reveal about these claims and the ideas driving such beliefs in the UFO community today?

If all records and information related to UFOs that the U.S. government currently withholds were to be released, what would it disclose about the phenomenon? Would the undeniable reality of unidentified anomalous phenomena finally be laid bare, or would it only foment new questions about what aerial mysteries? 
This week on The Micah Hanks Program, we analyze the ongoing riddle of the Defense Intelligence Program's (DIA) Advanced Aerospace Weapons Systems Application Program (AAWSAP) and its enigmatic former director, Dr. James Lacatski, whose recent statements have raised new questions about "disclosure," as well as information leaks and espionage efforts that may have been underway during the secretive Pentagon UAP investigation.

What is the real truth about UFOs? Today, theories widely circulated online range from the controversial—and often questionable—including viral "alien mummy" discoveries in South America, to conspiracy-driven narratives about secret briefings, missing scientists, and even alleged "alien speeches" tied to political figures. Is it possible to make sense of the madness that often populates the modern UFO landscape, as represented by dialogue online?
This week on The Micah Hanks Program, we wade into the madness and, drawing on firsthand experiences and widely reported cases, attempt to separate speculation from substantiated fact, and explore how easily misinformation—and potentially even disinformation—can be incubated within even the most unusual "side quests" of the contemporary UFO conversation.

America's enigmatic Adena culture, which flourished in the Ohio Valley between roughly 1000 BCE and 200 BCE, is best known for its sophisticated burial practices and monumental earthworks. While much about the Adena is known to modern archaeologists, a number of questions linger about this mysterious ancient culture, the remarkable monuments they left to time, and the curious tablets that have been recovered from famous Adena sites.
This week on The Micah Hanks Program, we are joined by researcher Jason Pentrail to discuss his new two-volume book series Adena: Mound Builders of the Ohio Valley. From Ohio's mysterious Serpent Mound to the controversies associated with finds like the famous tablet retrieved from West Virginia's Grave Creek Mound, we explore many of the great mysteries about one of America's true great "lost" ancient cultures.
