The Moreland Mystery: A New Zealand Encounter of the Cold War Kind

<p>On episode 393, Ryan presents an exclusive audio documentary based on a relatively unknown UFO event that occurred in New Zealand in 1959. Eileen Moreland went out to milk the cows one morning in the South Island town of Blenheim. She returned home about eighty minutes later with an extraordinary story. "You may think I am mad,” she told police, “but I saw a flying saucer." After reporting the incident to the police, the local Air Force Base got involved and began to privately investigate the report. What they uncovered, and the events that followed, would both haunt the Air Force investigators and the Moreland family for many years to come.</p><br><p>Special thanks to our voiceover talents: Jim Rees, Megan Mazzoccone, and Steve Mazzoccone.</p><br><p>Book Ryan on CAMEO at: <a href="https://bit.ly/3kwz3DO" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://bit.ly/3kwz3DO</a></p><p>Patreon: <a href="http://www.patreon.com/somewhereskies" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">http://www.patreon.com/somewhereskies</a></p><p>ByMeACoffee: <a href="http://www.buymeacoffee.com/UFxzyzHOaQ" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">http://www.buymeacoffee.com/UFxzyzHOaQ</a></p><p>PayPal: [email protected]</p><p>Discord: <a href="https://discord.gg/NTkmuwyB4F" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://discord.gg/NTkmuwyB4F</a></p><p>Bluesky: <a href="https://bsky.app/profile/ryansprague.bsky.social" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://bsky.app/profile/ryansprague.bsky.social</a></p><p>Twitter: <a href="https://twitter.com/SomewhereSkies" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://twitter.com/SomewhereSkies</a></p><p>Instagram: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/somewhereskiespod/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.instagram.com/somewhereskiespod/</a></p><p>Letterboxd: <a href="https://letterboxd.com/Sprague51/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://letterboxd.com/Sprague51/</a></p><p>Order Ryan’s new book: <a href="https://a.co/d/4KNQnM4" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://a.co/d/4KNQnM4</a></p><p>Order Ryan’s older book: <a href="https://amzn.to/3PmydYC" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://amzn.to/3PmydYC</a></p><p>Store: <a href="http://tee.pub/lic/ULZAy7IY12U" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">http://tee.pub/lic/ULZAy7IY12U</a></p><p>Read Ryan’s articles at: <a href="https://medium.com/@ryan-sprague51" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://medium.com/@ryan-sprague51</a></p><p>Opening Theme Song, "Ephemeral Reign" by Per Kiilstofte</p><p>Produced by LIONSGATE</p><p>Copyright © 2024 Ryan Sprague.
