Great horned owls? A terrifying case of mistaken identity? Or something even stranger?This week on Never A Straight Answer, we head to Kelly, Kentucky, and revisit the bizarre story of the Kelly–Hopkinsville Goblins — one of the most famous close encounters of the 1950s.Because sometimes... the things knocking at your window aren't there to sell you double glazing.🛸 The Encounter 🎙️ Listen & Subscribe: Spotify Apple Podcasts Amazon Music YouTube Google Podcasts (deprecated – now YouTube Music) RSS Feed 🛍️ Merch: NASApodcast Store – T-shirts, stickers & more paranormal gear 💸 Support the show: <a href="https://word-edit.officeapps.live.com/we/wordeditorframe.aspx?ui=en-GB&rs=en-GB&wopisrc=https%3A%2F%2Fmy.microsoftpersonalcontent.com%2Fpersonal%2Fc7a88c5dac1707da%2F_vti_bin%2Fwopi.ashx%2Ffiles%2Fac1707da8c5d20a880c7670100000000&wdenableroaming=1&mscc=1&wdodb=1&hid=Smtx8GLf0U%2BfH0DKRaqmJA.0.0&sc=%7B%22pmo%22%3A%22https%3A%2F%2Fonedrive.live.com%22%7D&wdorigin=OFFICECOM-WEB.START.MRU&uih=onedrivecom&jsapi=1&jsapiver=v2&corrid=aacda141-99be-4317-9199-aab0186552e7&usid=aacda141-99be-4317-9199-a

304# The Flannan Isles | Britain's Greatest Maritime Mystery
304# The Flannan Isles | Britain's Greatest Maritime MysteryIn December 1900, three experienced lighthouse keepers arrived for what should have been a routine shift on the remote Flannan Isles, off the rugged west coast of Scotland. Days later, when the relief ship finally reached the island, the lighthouse was operational... but the men had vanished without a trace.With no signs of a struggle, no bodies ever recovered, and only a handful of clues left behind, the disappearance of James Ducat, Thomas Marshall and Donald MacArthur has become one of Britain's greatest unsolved mysteries. Was it a rogue wave? A tragic accident? Foul play? Or has more than a century of folklore transformed a simple explanation into one of the most enduring maritime legends of all time?Join Gaz and Taylor as they navigate the stormy waters of history, separating documented fact from myth while exploring every major theory surrounding the mysterious disappearance of the Flannan Isles lighthouse keepers. From official investigations and eyewitness accounts to paranormal legends and modern interpretations, this is the complete story of the lighthouse that still refuses to give up its secrets.🌊 Was it simply the sea... or is there something more to the story?🎙️ Never A Straight AnswerExploring the mysteries of the universe, the unexplained, conspiracy theories, history, science and everything in between.🌐 Website: https://www.neverastraightanswer.co.uk🎧 Listen & Subscribe: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/never-a-straight-answer--3256296📸 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/neverastraightanswer🎥 YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@NeverAStraightAnswer👍 Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/NeverAStraightAnswer🎵 TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@neverastraightanswer❌ X (Twitter): https://x.com/NASAPodcast⭐ If you enjoyed this episode, don't forget to follow, subscribe and leave us a review.

303# Where Are the Little Green Men? | Terry Adair's Energy Hypothesis
303# Where Are the Little Green Men? | Terry Adair's Energy HypothesisFor decades, scientists have wrestled with the Fermi Paradox: if the universe is so vast and potentially full of life, why haven't we found any evidence of advanced civilisations?In this episode of Never A Straight Answer, we're joined by author Terry Adair to explore his thought-provoking idea known as The Adair Hypothesis. Rather than focusing on intelligence or biology, Terry argues that the real barrier preventing civilisations from reaching the stars is something much more fundamental—energy.Together we explore the Great Filter, the future of humanity, SETI, the challenges every technological civilisation must overcome, and whether our own species is approaching—or struggling through—the same bottleneck that may have silenced countless others across the cosmos.Whether you're fascinated by UFOs, astronomy, physics, or simply love asking the biggest questions imaginable, this is a conversation that will leave you looking at the universe in a completely different way.Find Terry Adair's book Where Are the Little Green Men?
