April 24, 2022 — Erica Lukes with Tim Swartz

Gene and guest cohost Tim Swartz present a return visit from UFO researcher Erica Lukes, who will focus on her ongoing archival efforts to preserve the work of the late investigator Ann Druffel and others. During this episode, she’ll also explain why she regards the ongoing Skinwalker Ranch mystery, involving a location of regularly reported paranormal activity, to be nothing more than a hoax. She has an undying passion for the mysteries of the universe, particularly UFO reports and other strange aerial phenomena. Since childhood, she has been fascinated with imagery of how vehicles and beings from space might appear and she pursued this interest quietly but with determination. Additionally, Erica was a team leader for “Project Orange,” a program to study so-called “Balls of Light” phenomenon that have ramification in real-world science in the form of ball lightning and other peculiar luminous phenomena.
