Erik Slader goes down the rabbit hole on some topics on the fringe of history: D.B. Cooper - one of the FBI's greatest mysteries, a conspiracy theory that turned out to be true (MK-Ultra), and the Roswell Incident of 1947 - a potential government coverup where the official story keeps changing, as well as the recent 2023 Congressional Hearing on UAP! ⁠
