Dean is best known to many in the UFO world for The McPherson Tape and Alien Abduction: Incident in Lake County, two cult projects that blurred the line between fiction, found footage and UFO folklore. In this conversation, we get into why he turned his attention to experiencers and abduction accounts, the challenge of handling such a divisive part of the topic, Betty and Barney Hill, Travis Walton, Terry Lovelace, hybrid claims, hypnosis, evidence, high strangeness and why Dean believes abductions may be the real elephant in the room. A fascinating discussion on one of the most controversial areas of the UFO subject. The Experiencers: Full Disclosure is available now. https://www.experiencersmovie.com/ πŸ”₯ Support the show & get bonus content: πŸ›Έ YouTube Memberships: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCHw9Lru3EcpRQyM7AI5TlmA/join πŸ›Έ Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/c/ThatUFOPodcast πŸ›Έ Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/that-ufo-podcast/id1511121397 πŸ›Έ Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/7wnXUAQ3vwdsX1BoyaEvjZ πŸ›Έ Buy Me a Coffee: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/ThatUFOPodcast πŸ“² Connect with the show: Twitter: @UFOUAPAM Facebook, Instagram & YouTube: That UFO Podcast YouTube: YouTube.com/c/ThatUFOPodcast Email: UFOUAPAM@gmail.com All links: https://linktr.ee/ufouapam Official Website: ThatUFOPodcast.com πŸ‘ Don’t forget to subscribe, like & leave a review β€” it really helps!
