  • 22: Inside Crop Circles - paranormal encounters in the fields
    Apr 15 2025

    In this episode, I speak with an ex crop circle maker who goes by the pseudonym “D.” While many still associate crop circles with extraterrestrials, D argues that humans play a pivotal role in their creation—and that the real mystery begins during the making of these formations.

    Over the course of several summers in Wiltshire, a region in the southwest of England long associated with ancient monuments and mysterious phenomena, D helped create dozens of crop circles. What he encountered during those nights in the fields defies easy explanation: flashes of light, floating orbs, strange synchronicities, and unsettling energies that lingered long after the work was done.

    We explore the technical and creative process behind crop circle construction and ask: What draws certain people to this work? Why does Wiltshire seem to act as a hotspot for high strangeness? And could the very act of making crop circles be a form of contact with something beyond ourselves?

    D’s perspective challenges the tidy divide between hoax and mystery, man-made and paranormal. Whether you’re a skeptic or a believer, this conversation invites you to rethink the nature of the phenomenon.

  • 21: Lights in the Cold War Sky - The Soesterberg Sighting(s)
    Mar 4 2025

    In this episode, I speak with filmmaker and UFO researcher Bram Roza about his new documentary, The UFO’s of Soesterberg, which explores one of the most remarkable mass military UFO sightings in European history. On February 3rd, 1979, twelve military police officers stationed at Soesterberg Air Base in the Netherlands reported witnessing a gigantic, dark triangular craft hovering silently over the base. The incident, which took place at the height of the Cold War, remains one of the best-documented UFO cases in the Netherlands.

    We explore the key details of the Soesterberg case, including the official military response, how the event was reported in the media, and the involvement of Dutch and U.S. forces at the base. Bram shares insights from his extensive research, including interviews with former military personnel who saw the craft firsthand, as well as other previously unknown encounters from the region.

    What really happened that night at Soesterberg? Was this a secret military craft, a case of mistaken identity, or something far more mysterious? Join us as we unravel one of the most compelling UFO cases in European history.

  • 20: Italy's most bizarre UFO abduction case
    Feb 3 2025

    In this episode, I speak with journalist Rino Di Stefano, who originally covered and later wrote a book about the Zanfretta case, one of Europe’s most astonishing and well-documented UFO abduction cases. Between 1978 and 1980, Pier Fortunato Zanfretta, a security guard in the Genoa region of northern Italy, reported multiple abductions by towering reptilian beings. His terrifying encounters sparked official investigations, drew the attention of the Italian Carabinieri, and left behind physical traces that continue to puzzle researchers to this day.

    We explore the key events of the case, from Zanfretta’s first abduction in 1978 to his final (official) disappearance in 1980, analyzing eyewitness accounts, forensic evidence, and hypnosis sessions conducted by leading medical professionals. Di Stefano shares his first-hand experiences investigating the case, including his participation in a rescue operation after one of Zanfretta’s vanishings.

    Was this a genuine case of extraterrestrial contact, a psychological phenomenon, or something else entirely? Join us as we dive deep into the mystery of the Zanfretta abductions and the lasting impact they had on those involved.

  • 19: Czech UFOs and Project Záře (Project Glow)
    Nov 27 2024

    In this episode, I speak with Martin Chlebovský, a veteran ufologist and leading member of Project Záře (Project Glow) in the Czech Republic. We delve into the often-overlooked region of Central Europe in UFO research, exploring Martin's early fascination with UFOs that began in the 1970s.

    Our discussion traces the evolution of UFO research in the Czech Republic, from its clandestine beginnings under the communist regime to the post-Velvet Revolution era, where newfound freedoms allowed researchers to organize and publish their findings. Martin shares insights into the methodologies employed by Project Glow, which investigated not only UFO sightings but also poltergeist phenomena, spontaneous human combustion, and other unexplained mysteries.

    We also highlight a small but compelling percentage of cases that defy conventional explanation. Whether you're a seasoned UFO enthusiast or new to the field, this episode is packed with intriguing stories from a region rarely featured in mainstream UFO discourse.

    In this episode, I speak with Joachim Dekkers, the founder of UAP Coalition Netherlands. We delve into his journey, starting with how the 2017 New York Times article about U.S. Navy pilots encountering UAP sparked his interest. Joachim shares how this curiosity led him to explore similar cases in Europe and ultimately form a coalition focused on UAP from the perspectives of law enforcement, aviation, and military professionals.

    Our conversation covers his mission to remove the stigma surrounding UAP experiences and his push for serious research and cooperation with government bodies. We discuss the coalition's work with European institutions, the importance of flight safety, and efforts to improve UAP reporting across Europe.

    Overall, this episode offers a fascinating look at how personal ambition can evolve into a full-scale movement aimed at fostering transparency and policy change in the realm of UAP.

With a career that includes interviews with prominent figures like the Dalai Lama and Karl Popper, Ferrari is no stranger to exploring the frontiers of science and the mysteries of consciousness.

    Together, we explore intriguing questions: How are UFOs connected to our state of consciousness? Can specific protocols be developed to engage with these phenomena? And what is the relationship between the physical aspects of UFOs and their reported spiritual qualities?

    This episode is presented in German. For those interested, a translated transcript is available upon request. Join us for a deep dive into the complex and mysterious world of UFOs and consciousness.

  • 15: A sober look at the evidence
    Jul 9 2024

    In this episode, we delve into the scientific study of UFOs with Karl Svozil, a distinguished Austrian physicist and retired professor from the Institute for Theoretical Physics at Vienna Technical University. Despite the scarcity of rigorous studies on UFOs due to the ambiguous nature of the data and the often subjective interpretations within ufology, Svozil's new book, "UFOs: Unidentified Aerial Phenomena: Observations, Explanations, and Speculations," stands out as a beacon of rationality.

    Join us as we explore Svozil's meticulous research and his efforts to bring scientific rigour to the study of UFOs. With a background that includes significant contributions to quantum theory and theoretical physics, Svozil applies his expertise to UFOs. We discuss the key findings of his book and how they contribute to a clearer understanding of UFO phenomena, cutting through the haze of dubious claims and speculative theories.
