This week: alien disclosure, 23andMe selling your DNA, and alien.gov β€” a Men in Black–styled ICE reporting page dressed up in extraterrestrial clothing.

Captain Ray Tracy and Mr. Green break down the conspiratorial timing of disclosure season, spiral into political distraction cycles, and ask why everything β€” including children carrying groceries β€” eventually gets reduced to a dollar amount.

Meanwhile, a sci-fi narrative about delivering a mysterious box to Brenner 7108-D winds through a space-western saloon standoff, a robot marshal with suspicious interest in the box, skull pirates firing from orbit, and some genuinely questionable drunk piloting advice β€” before revealing it was all Mr. Green's dream after passing out at the Intergalactic House of Waffles.

They close by encouraging you to go do something real offline. But first, send them an email.
