I’m finally joined by the show's first guests, archeologist Colin and historian Reid. We are beginning a journey that will last throughout the autumn. Stepping through The Stargate, to ask questions about a sus séance unit found in a thick, real X-files dossier within the MIC. Staring broad, introducing forgotten names, decrypting old messages  from hijacked TV broadcasts, wondering about  the sensory deprivation of space ships, about how long before you go insane on a nuclear submarine and why the Pentagon were hypnotising space children. We felt it was of out-most emergency in our contemporary mess of psychedelic revivalism to ask why in the end of the 40s, during the paperclip briefings, Operation Artichoke doctors went looking for Aztec truth serums, plants and seeds in the footsteps of Ahnenerbe expeditions? Seriously, why did NASA and Jim Jones both pick the year 1963 to go to Brazil to  find psychic shamans, don't they know that you should never channel the spirits of surgeons called Adolf Fritz? Was someone "beaming thoughts into their heads" with hidden dental radio transmitters? Finally like others since 1976 we asked: How did the Dogon People of Mali know that Sirus has an invisible twin star, before the invention of the telescope? In short, we're checkin out the show, with a glassy eye, looking at the sun dancing through the sky, did they come by UFO?
