He is also a member of the Roswell Dream Team, which has been tied to the investigation, and recent unraveling, of photographs that were purported to show an alien body from the Roswell crash in 1947. So who is the Roswell Dream Team, and why do there seem to be members of this team debunking the slides, and others supporting the idea that they show something anomalous? In this interview, we ask Kevin those questions while examining what happened, and the discoveries that have shown the alien to actually be the mummified body of a young boy.

Larry Holcombe took up writing after retiring from a long career in sales. He has had a lifetime interest in the UFO topic, so his first book The Great River Disclosure was a fiction based off of his UFO beleifs. Having done well as an author, Holcombe proposed to his literary agent the idea of doing a non-fiction book on UFOs. He had been told an amazing story about how Nixon's reelection committee had wanted a movie on UFOs to be made and proposed it include real UFO film provided by the Air Force. This idea expanded into a book not just about Nixon's UFO interests, but all Presidents from FDR to Obama. The idea was picked up St. Martin's Press, and his book The Presidents and UFOs:A Secret History from FDR to Obama came out on March 17, 2015. In this interview, we talk to Holcombe about the making of the book, the research he conducted to write the book, and some of the amazing stories in the book.

Jack Weiner along with his twin brother, Jim, and his friends Chuck Foltz and Charles Rak believe they were abducted during a kayaking trip in Maine in 1976. They had an incredible UFO encounter, and when some of them began having nightmares, they underwent regression therapy, separately. Their accounts of what happened during their UFO encounter in 1976, which they had not remembered consciously, were remarkably similar. Last week we aired an interview with Jim Weiner. This week we interview his brother, Jack, to get his perspective. Medical issues have prevented Jack from being able to travel with his brother to participate in lectures on their experiences. That makes this a rare interview with one of the key figures of the Allagash Abductions. For more about Jack, Jim, their experiences, and their art, visit: www.allagashufotwins.com.
