Aliens at Canadian Crossroads w/ Zelia Edgar
Somewhere in the SkiesSep 4, 2026
On June 7, 1971, Esther Clapison of Rosedale, Alberta, saw a glowing, open-sided rectangular craft parked at a nearby crossroads, with three small olive-suited beings, one of them apparently gathering rocks. When she looked for the craft's instrument panel, one being hurried to cover it, her dog pushed her back toward the house, and the whole scene vanished, leaving a scorched rectangle in the ground. Host Zelia Edgar argues that the case's space-age details sit on top of much older folklore themes: liminal crossroads, fairy-like beings, mining spirits and forbidden knowledge kept just out of reach.
