87: The UFOs of Sweden with Fred Andersson

Often when UFO cases are written about in journals and reviews, particularly when they're from other countries, there is a lack of nuance and cultural background. They are experienced in a vacuum.

On today's episode writer, author, and television producer, Fred Andersson joins the pod to talk about some of Sweden's most fascinating, bizarre and absurd UFO cases. We explore the differences between American contactees v. Swedish ones, as well an interesting theory that Fred has about what attracts UFOs to a particular area.
