Gavrilo Princip probably wasn't munching on a sandwich when he decided to kick off World War I. This, along with other thrilling things we did wrong, is in this one. We'll also explore how we managed to confuse rocks, misplace a few billion dollars in military spending, and accidentally transport a moustached TV host to the Mexican desert - all in a day's work.

Teotihuacán is a city that "millions of people around the world" believe looks like a computer chip. So it must be, apparently. We're joined by Quintin Smith who is much more generous than we are.

This is the big one! Was Die Glocke real? What did it do? And is "anti-gravity" the bad boy of physics?

Obviously not. But this raises an interesting question about why pop culture has painted nazis in this treasure-hunting way.

Turns out, nearly every seemingly innocuous new age-y thing is linked back to nazi ideology. So that's no good.

So far, we've debunked Ancient Aliens' claims that Nazi Germany got help from alien technology. But now we're tackling the much grosser belief that the aryan race was actual aliens.

Wernher von Braun didn't care who he made rockets for or for what those people used his rockets. Nazi Germany? The United States? Didn't matter to him. Cool guy.

Are you sensing a theme yet? Because apparently the V-1 and V-2 rocket programs during WWII were also inspired by extra-terrestrials.

We continue our dive into Ancient Aliens and the Third Reich (yay?) by covering the myth about how Germany definitely got aliens to build nuclear weapons for them during World War II.

We're (unfortunately) starting a new series on Ancient Aliens and Nazi Germany. And where better to start than Victor Schauberger — a guy who definitely wasn't a nazi and definitely invented a flying saucer.

We're diving into the symbolism of ants and snakes throughout history, religion, and culture because a bad tv show is convinced they're connected to aliens.

The year is 7023. Humanity has admittedly had a rough go of it. Last christmas, a shapeshifting alien from Earth disguising itself as Santa wreaked havoc on the X Intellectual Conference at the X Convention Center, in X City. Nobody is sure how it got there, but everyone knows it was stopped by two brave heroes: Derrick Von Erican and Indianapolis Dave. Interestingly enough, those two JUST came back from Earth, and stories of their time there have been wildly published, generating more interest in the Pale Grey Dot.
General Michael Ivan Cochran is the head of the Martian Military, which accounts for 60% of the Martian annual budget to protect from extra-terrestrial threats. That WILL show up. Any. Day. Now. MIC has reason to suspect there are actually ALIENS on the Earth, and even scarier: GIANT aliens, and even scarier still UNDERWATER GIANT ALIENS. Around the end of the year, they assemble some sort of alien instrument with various pieces around a giant tree. Now, this COULD just be a community sharing gifts with each other for a winter holiday… or it COULD be an alien super weapon meant to destroy all of Mars. the ONLY way to be safe, is to send a small strike team of two HEROES back to Earth, to steal the pieces of this super weapon before all of Mars can be destroyed. And who better than the heroes who saved last Christmas, and also, ENTIRELY COINCIDENTALLY, went to Earth around the same time? This is: Its Probably Not Aliens: Protocol Atlantis.
It's that time of year we put aside our chrome tabs for dice and 3 grown adults play pretend on a microphone for the entertainment of dozens. Happy holidays!

In our first issue of the GALACTIC GAZETTE, We learn that the new speaker of the house doen't understand basic stuff about Roman history, and that NASA concluded that they are probably good people for studying the sky and space.
