The intro / closing track from E-27 was the track "Don't Ever" by Donna Lewis and it was from her 2008 album "In The Pink." At the time I found and selected the song, I didn't realize that Donna Lewis was the same artist who back in the 90's released the song "I Love You Always Forever."  Go figure? You never know who you're going to come across on MusicAlley.

In this episode we discuss gods and aliens and the ideas surrounding Ancient Astronaut Theory. Do you believe in extra-terrestrials? Do you think they visited and helped ancient human civilizations? Are you a supporter of Ancient Astronaut Theory? If your answer is a resounding YES, then this episode is not for you, because I take a look into some of the propositions made by Ancient Astronaut

During his unusual life, the three books he published during his

For some mysterious reason, the downloads for the show went through the roof today. Nearing 2,000.  A number which is very unusual by a long stretch. Probably the most the show has seen in a single day and so breaking the previous record of 1,837 which happened back on October 31, 2011. Thank you to those who have helped make this possible.
