Budd Hopkins' Missing Time Part 1

About this episode

The episode explores Budd Hopkins' work on UFO abductions and the concept of 'Missing Time' through hypnotic regression.

What if the most significant events of your life were hidden from you, tucked away in a gap of "Missing Time"? In the 1970s and 80s, Budd Hopkins proposed this was happening to thousands, and he held the key: hypnotic regression. His work propelled the UFO abduction phenomenon from fringe speculation into a terrifying, personal reality for many. But as we follow the trail of lost hours and recovered memories, we must confront a difficult mystery: are we hearing the whispers of a non-human intelligence, or the echo of the investigator's own leading questions? Join me and let’s explore the shadowy intersection where memory, trauma, and the unknown collide.
