Listen by joining @ patreon.com/exoacademian If one thing is clear as we look back over the course of 38 episodes of the Point of Convergence podcast, it’s that the so-called UFO Phenomenon is as complex and multifaceted as it is equal parts bewildering and fascinating.

038 ~ A Human/Alien Symbiosis
Listen by joining @ patreon.com/exoacademian The UFO Phenomenon is a topic that has undoubtedly seen a rise in interest amongst the general public in recent years. This of course has much to do with startling videos of officially declared UAP – that is, unidentified aerial phenomena – that were discussed in some detail in a …
036 ~ Transformed by Contact
Listen by joining @ patreon.com/exoacademian In the 1980s a book that seemingly came out of nowhere, a book that the author purportedly had a very difficult time actually finding a publisher for, took the world by storm. The book, with the provocative title of Communion, featured the image of a face of a very peculiar …
035 ~ The Entangled Spectacle
Listen by joining @ patreon.com/exoacademian In last week’s episode of the Point of Convergence podcast we discussed what I consider to be one of the most important cases in the history of the UFO Phenomenon. I speak here of the astounding life and times of Dorothy Izatt, a soft-spoken woman who managed to capture 30,000 …
034 ~ Beholding Beings of Light
Listen by joining @ patreon.com/exoacademian There are a few cases in the lore of the UFO Phenomenon that tend to get a disproportionate amount of attention.

Listen by joining @ patreon.com/exoacademian When it comes to the matter of informing a naive general public about the reality of the UFO Phenomenon, many more familiar with the topic will argue that the way to introduce this topic to the broader population is to begin by focusing on what are – in some ways …
022 ~ UFOs and the Atomic Dawn
Listen by joining @ patreon.com/exoacademian When UFO enthusiasts think back to the origins of the modern UFO Phenomenon, the decade of the 1940s certainly stands out. Of course this was the decade that saw the Roswell event reportedly happen: when a craft, apparently piloted by beings who were decidedly non-human, crashed into the desert of …
021 ~ The Psychokineticon
Listen by joining @ patreon.com/exoacademian For some time now here on the Point of Convergence podcast, we’ve been discussing the many ways that various forms of high strangeness tend to, well, converge. As we’ve discussed previously, often that means an individual who’s experienced one form of high strangeness is quite likely to have experienced others …
016 ~ The Visitors from Beyond
Listen by joining @ patreon.com/exoacademian For almost as long as human beings have been attempting to document and study what is often collectively termed “high strangeness”, it has been assumed that various phenomena should be studied separately, as distinct fields of inquiry. Thus, when researchers wanted to conduct research and/or look for evidence suggesting human …
