Hey there friends and weirdos! In this one, Nile gives us a new angle on the Ancient Aliens theories, this time from the perspective of Soviet Russia. We learn about Matest Agrest (yes this is his real name) and some of his alternate takes on Ancient Aliens, mostly involving alternate explanations for events in the Bible. Did Ancient Alien theory end up serving as anti-American propaganda? Can we use aliens to push an agenda? Listen and find out!
