Hey there friends and weirdos! This week Nile gives us another alien primer on the "Nordic" alien phenomenon. Who are these tall, white aliens and why are they visiting Earth? Like so many extraterrestrial visitation truthers, it kinda depends on who you ask. Strangely enough, the whole gamut between hippies and racists are into the "tall white" alien race stories and they all have their own experiences with the intergalactic visitors.
