EP 106 - The Phoenix Lights!

It's been a while since we’ve talked about aliens and because I’ve been watching Xfiles so much then why don’t we give it a go! So, this week I'd like to reintroduce you to an event that happened in Phoenix, Arizona back in 1997. One night in March during a seemingly quiet evening, there were a string of lights that brightened the night sky in the shape of a V. Eventually disappearing and reappearing a few hours in Phoenix in the shape of an arch. Many people were witness to this historic event and still to this day don’t have an explanation as to how these lights got here. Take a listen to this week's story about the Phoenix Lights and tell me what you think, Enjoy!
