Description

In January 1996, three teenage girls in the quiet Brazilian city of Varginha reported seeing a strange creature crouched in an alley — brown, oily skin, red eyes, and a head too large for its body. Within hours, the military rolled in, witnesses claimed a crash outside town, and a young soldier allegedly died after contact with “the being.”

Neal and Andrew dig into Brazil’s most famous UFO case — from the alleged crash site and witness statements to government cover-ups, secret autopsies, and new testimony revealed in James Fox’s Moment of Contact.

Was it a true alien encounter, a military accident, or a case of small-town hysteria?
Listen as the hosts weigh the evidence and decide:
Is this a Mostly True Alien Story… or not?
