We've all heard or seen stories over the years that people will swear happened to them or a friend of a friend which on face value seem strange and often weird but if we dig a little deeper, the facts become blurry.

Mysteries and Monsters: Episode 328 Aliens and the Apocalypse with Dr Irena Scott

Jan 26 2025 77 mins

The true story of the “Foo Fighters” goes back much earlier than 1944, involving RAF aircrew operating over Germany and Italy.
