    Deep Space Confidential-Levelland

    04/04/2026 | 1h
    This week we kick of a new segment looking at UFO sightings in the mid-century and the strange goings on in Levelland that caused cars to stop one evening.

    We have a letter to the show from a listener who took my advice but now regrets it and an interesting new bio pic coming out which has upset the person it is all about ..plus the story of Deli meat on a space craft that went wrong.
