Show Notes Episode 452: Subterranean Homesick Alien Autopsy
This week Host Dave Bledsoe is back from his tax deductible “research trip” where he was researching a story about a old, fat, drunk man who gets thrown out of bars in a small southeastern Tennessee town screaming “You can’t do this, I was born here!” (He was, and they can.) On the show this week we examine a television show that purported to show an alien autopsy that aired on Fox in 1995. (Fox, bringing the bullshit for over thirty years!)

Along the way we learn that Dave saw a UFO on his flight, or at least what he thought was one. (It wasn’t. He was drunk.) Then we dive right into why Americans Wanted To Believe in UFOs back in the mid 90’s. (It was more that they wanted to have a threesome with Scully and Mulder.) We meet the “brains” behind Alien Autopsy: Fact or Fiction and ask the question, was Jonathan Frakes having money troubles when he did this? From there we introduce you to the English record producer who “accidentally” discovered footage proving that life exists on other planets and were visiting Earth for decades. (They aren’t and he didn’t.) Finally, we discuss WHY people believed it was real. (people are very stupid.)

Our returning Sponsor is Morley Cigarettes, America Smokes a Morely.  We open with the Fox Special and close with Warrenmusic who met a friend on the subway.
