SOMEWHERE IN THE DARK SKIES with Andrew Sanford

Season 1, Ep. 155

On episode 155 of SOMEWHERE IN THE SKIES, Andrew Sanford returns to review the 2013 horror/sci-fi film, DARK SKIES. As the Barrett family's peaceful suburban life is rocked by an escalating series of disturbing events, they come to learn that a terrifying and deadly force is after them, one which may have arrived from beyond the stars.

This polarizing film draws on decades of authentic alien abduction cases and research, mashing it in to a smorgasbord of paranormal, supernatural, and ufological goodness and badness. Ryan and Andrew navigate their way through its dark and sometimes laughably absurd plot points, making for a very fun and very opinionated journey. Go watch the film, come back, and enjoy this epic movie review, somewhere in the dark skies!

  • 402. Close Encounters of the Deadly Kind

    01:16:59||Season 1, Ep. 402
    On episode 402, we scour the dark corners of UFO history to bring you a handful of UFO encounters that tragically ended in death. From a pilot who vanished into thin air after leaving a terrifying radio transmission behind to a police detective investigating an apparent murder and ending up being abducted by aliens in the process. From violent attacks by UFOs in Brazil to the gruesome discovery of a hunter who may have become the hunted. Were these incidents connected to some sort of malevolent alien presence? Were the deaths completely by accident or happenstance? Or, were they simply tragedies that had nothing to do with an otherworldly explanation? We bring the darkness into the light and search for answers to these fatal mysteries, one case at a time.Co-researched by Marcus Lowth: www.ufoinsight.comVoiceover by Jane MooreWritten and produced by Ryan SpraguePlease take a moment to rate and review us on Spotify and Apple.Book Ryan on CAMEO at: https://bit.ly/3kwz3DOPatreon: http://www.patreon.com/somewhereskiesByMeACoffee: http://www.buymeacoffee.com/UFxzyzHOaQPayPal: Sprague51@hotmail.comDiscord: https://discord.gg/NTkmuwyB4FBluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/ryansprague.bsky.socialTwitter: https://twitter.com/SomewhereSkiesInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/somewhereskiespod/Tik Tok: https://www.tiktok.com/@ryansprague51Order Ryan’s new book: https://a.co/d/4KNQnM4Order Ryan’s older book: https://amzn.to/3PmydYCStore: http://tee.pub/lic/ULZAy7IY12URead Ryan’s articles at: https://medium.com/@ryan-sprague51Opening Theme Song by SeptembryoCopyright © 2025 Ryan Sprague.

  • 401. Annie Jacobsen: A War of Psionics

    54:19||Season 1, Ep. 401
    On episode 401, we are joined by New York Times Best-Selling author, Annie Jacobsen. With the term "psionics" circling the UFO world as of late, we look back at a book written by Jacobsen called, Phenomena: The Secret History of the U.S. Government's Investigations into Extrasensory Perception. While independent groups are now studying and attempting to use psychic abilities to "summon" UFOs, how did rival nations, during the end of World War 2 and through the Cold War, use similar abilities through various military and intelligence agencies? Why did they invest millions of dollars into classified programs to study mental telepathy, precognition, and extrasensory perception? Was it all for intelligence gathering and defense purposes? Or could there have been more otherworldly reasons as well?Find all of Annie Jacobsen's work at: https://anniejacobsen.com/Please take a moment to rate and review us on Spotify and Apple.Book Ryan on CAMEO at: https://bit.ly/3kwz3DOPatreon: http://www.patreon.com/somewhereskiesByMeACoffee: http://www.buymeacoffee.com/UFxzyzHOaQPayPal: Sprague51@hotmail.comDiscord: https://discord.gg/NTkmuwyB4FBluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/ryansprague.bsky.socialTwitter: https://twitter.com/SomewhereSkiesInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/somewhereskiespod/Tik Tok: https://www.tiktok.com/@ryansprague51Order Ryan’s new book: https://a.co/d/4KNQnM4Order Ryan’s older book: https://amzn.to/3PmydYCStore: http://tee.pub/lic/ULZAy7IY12URead Ryan’s articles at: https://medium.com/@ryan-sprague51Opening Theme Song by SeptembryoCopyright © 2025 Ryan Sprague.
