New episode of the Aliengazing Podcast is up!

This one has been a long time coming, and it’s one of our longer episodes. Titled, “UFOs and Oligarchy,”it features Tom (@dougluggage )and I (@fuzzlaser47 )exploring the question of how true UFO disclosure can happen within the increasingly overt and corruption laden oligarchy we’ve been living through here in the US. It’s a frank conversation I don’t see being brought up enough, so we put a lot of thought and research into this one to shine a light on the situation as best we can, and look for ways the UFO disclosure movement can move forward.

As always we pair this discussion with moments of blissful reprieve in 3 shoegaze tracks from up and coming bands from all corners of the globe. The songs featured on this episode are:

Dreams by @theriversideorca

No Conviction by @nursing.fl

Who You Wish You Were by @supervehicleband

**Link to the podcast can be found in the linktree in our bio 👽**

We hope you enjoy this episode and until next time,
Stay spacey 🌌 and keep gazin’ 🛸🛸🛸

What’s up yall? I wanted to start experimenting with book reviews, and since apparently it’s “alien abduction day” today, might as well start with a review of a UFO literature classic, “Abduction,” written by Harvard psychiatrist, John Mack. #alienabductionday #alienabduction #ufology #booktok #aliens by @fuzzlaser47

New episode of the Aliengazing podcast just dropped today!!

It’s been so gratifying the past couple months bringing the podcast back after taking some time away. This episode also marks the last time Tom and I would be in the studio face to face, ahead of his move to Kentucky. We’ll still be doing episodes together, just over a distance. So, to commemorate the occasion, we do a little check-in toward the end of the episode on our overall thoughts about the UFO mystery after 5 years of doing the podcast together.

“Premiering at SXSW in March 2025, @ageofdisclosure is a documentary that aims to inform its audience about the ongoing push for full government disclosure on the UFO phenomenon. Especially notable is the amount of professional involvement and testimony from over 30 individuals, ranging from physicists, politicians, academics, and armed service members who collectively make the case for the serious nature of the UFO phenomenon, and the struggle to break through 80+ years of government secrecy on the topic.

On this episode Nik (@fuzzlaser47 )and Tom (@dougluggage ) review and break down the documentary, and attempt to answer the question of A) Does the film help move the needle forward for the disclosure movement, and B) Is this documentary itself a form of disclosure.

The playlist on this episode features music from:

We hope you enjoy this episode, and, as always…

Just in time for the holidays we just posted a new episode of the Aliengazing Podcast!

From the episode copy:
“For those who have been paying close attention to the UFO mystery there has been a consistent thread of whistle-blowers, and those supposedly ‘in the know’ who characterize the phenomenon as being something ‘ancient.’
On this episode Nik (@fuzzlaser47 ) and Tom (@dougluggage ) search for clues hidden within various ancient mythologies from Greece to modern Catholicism that might shed light on potential connections to the UFO phenomenon. Combined with a few clips from 2 whistle-blowers and a key figure in the modern UFO Disclosure movement, this episode aims to build on ideas brought up in our previous episode, ‘UFOs and Esotericism.’”

As always we have a playlist of songs from independent shoegaze artists to keep the vibe gliding between existentialist pondering and blissful dreams. On this episode we have music from:

@jeanwilderhd
@animalghostsnoise
@gemsluster

Gotta say this one left both of us positively buzzing and thoroughly mind-f*cked. We’re so excited to share it with you all! Give it a listen while making your holiday travels or share it with your loved ones.

Whatever way you choose, we hope you enjoy this episode of the Aliengazing Podcast, and until next time…

New Episode of The Aliengazing Podcast is up!!!
Link available in the linktree in our bio 🤘

Episode 16 - Esotericism and UFOs: The Chris Bledsoe Story

On this episode Nik (@fuzzlaser47 )and Tom (@dougluggage )delve into the Chris Bledsoe Story.

For those not yet familiar, Bledsoe is most widely known for his 2023 autobiographical account of his experiences with UFOs, titled, UFO Of God. These experiences are what eventually lead him to be able to consistently attract UFOs, which he’s documented extensively on his Instagram account (@christopherlentzbledsoe ).

However what ultimately raises the implications of Bledsoe’s story is the accumulated interest he’s generated in various figures within the CIA and NASA, as well as today’s most prominent UFO researchers.

It’s a wild and deeply compelling story that may hold an important key to understanding UFOs in the modern age 🛸🛸🛸

This episode features tracks from @cosmoline.band
@totalwife
@skeeverphl

(Sorry it’s been so long yall, we recorded this episode a year ago, and between releasing the album last year and a lot of personal stuff, it just ended up on the back burner. Getting back into it, with plans for more episodes soon 👽)

Hey everyone!

Kinda weird I don’t talk more about my music life on here, but music has been the BIGGEST part of my life since I was a wee lad…

I got a guitar at age 12 and started my first band only months later (though it would be another couple of years before I wrote an actual song lol). Since that time, I’ve always been in bands, writing songs, and playing whatever gigs I could.

It was for my love of music that I became a school teacher back in 2017 so I could have scheduled breaks to plan tours around. But around 2020, I was kinda burnt out from the demands of that job.

While I figured out what my next move was, I got trained as a Guitar Tech through @elcaminoschoolusa and started offering guitar setups and minor repair jobs at a musician-friendly rate.

Then in early 2021, I started teaching guitar and bass at School of Rock Orlando, as well as running a couple Rock 101 and Performance program shows. Since then I’ve gotten the opportunity to share my love of guitar, music, and performing with so many students (ranging from ages 6-60)and it has been the only job I’ve ever ACTUALLY enjoyed doing.

I was really bummed that School of Rock Orlando closed its doors earlier this year, and though I’ve been able to scrape by between private lessons and teaching at two other School of Rock locations, summer has always been a bit of a dry season for lessons. People go away, go on vacation, etc.

I wanted to put this post out there to promote myself as a private instructor for guitar/bass lessons, and also guitar tech work. I can also teach how to set up guitar/bass.

So whether you or someone you know is looking to start playing for the first time, or would just like to workshop song ideas, I’d love to be a part of your musical journey!

Shoot me a message and tell me what your goals are and we can figure out where to go from there :)

(Swipe to see a few phases of my own musical journey. 1 -with my current project @saucersoverwashington 2 -with my college band @thegrizzlyatoms and 3 -me at 12 with my Sony disc-man and side-wrapped headphones, likely with a @blink182 album inside)

Skateboarding update!

Been working on stalls. I was SO STOKED to get my first crook stall on a parking block at my secret bank parking lot spot 🤫

Also been working on 50/50 stalls, and I’m starting to get better at nose manuals. Oddly enough I feel like sometimes I get them better than regular ones somehow 🤷‍♂️ lol

I can feel my progression a lot more this year and it makes me so happy. My biggest goal with skateboarding beyond getting more tricks down is to just be able to keep a level of consistency with all tricks I do get.

That’s all for now, thanks for stopping by 🤓

From Go Skate Day yesterday! I went with @dougluggage and @masonmakesmusic.wav to the new skate park in casselberry, and it was so fun! Park was hella packed but good vibes all around. Mostly stuck to the snake trail.

I’ve got a ton of videos I haven’t posted tracking my skate progress, but I’m still out here trying to keep my sanity from the insane world we’re living through. Skateboarding is one of the few things that allows me to turn everything else off and just try to get a little better every time I step on the board.

I’ll post some more of those videos soon.

Also, please ignore my sweaty sweaty butt 😂

What’s up everyone! Just in time for World UFO Day, We’ve got a special event for UFO seekers and curious minds alike!! Along with @artofmooney and @dougluggage we’re going to be hosting a FREE screening of, in my opinion, one of THE best UFO documentaries out there, The Phenomenon by director/ufologist James Fox.

The event will be at @austinscoffee in Winter Park on Saturday, July 13th.

Come hang out, grab a drink or a treat and sit back and let this doc take you for a ride thru some of the most fascinating UFO encounters from 1947 to the present day. 👽

Happy World UFO Day!!! 🛸🛸🛸

~The truth is not only out there, it’s right here, right now 👽

Still skateboarding! 🛹 Got this one with @dougluggage when we were out checking out some local spots a couple weeks back. As you can hear in the video,
I was so stoked! 🤓

Definitely the biggest gap I’ve ever made so far 🤘

Boneless is getting better, I was working on making sure to get the tail slap ✅ , and now what I’m working on is getting that almost 90 degree tweak that makes it look so good. Still not quite there in this one, but making progress!
