Coast to Coast AM, a nightly radio talk show, is known for its in-depth exploration of paranormal and unexplained phenomena, often featuring experts and researchers from various fields. In a recent episode, the show delved deep into the world of UFOs and national security with journalist and historian Garrett M. Graff, a Pulitzer Prize finalist known for his meticulous research and insightful analysis.
Graff, in his discussion on Coast to Coast AM, exposed the tangled web of congressional hearings, government actions and the Pentagon’s renewed investigation into unidentified aerial phenomena (UAP). One of the major highlights of his investigation was the attention given to a 2020 statement by former CIA Director John Brennan. Brennan’s comments about unexplained celestial phenomena underscored the complexity and seriousness with which these incidents are now viewed, crossing the realm of hostile technology and entering a space of greater unknowns.
In an age when the existence of extraterrestrial life is a topic of growing interest and debate, Graff’s reflections on the mathematical probability of such life forms offer a new perspective. He points to the abundance of habitable planets as statistical support for the potential for extraterrestrial life, suggesting that the odds may be more in favor of alien life than previously thought.

The conversation on Coast to Coast AM also revisited some of history’s most credible UFO cases. Graff discussed the famous 1964 encounter with police officer Lonnie Zamora, an incident that has stood the test of time as a significant and unexplained UFO sighting. In addition, he delved into the intriguing 1948 case of Captain Thomas Mantell, whose pursuit of a suspected UFO ended tragically, with later revelations linking the incident to a Navy research balloon, as reported in Project Blue Book.
Graff’s insights provided the Coast to Coast AM audience with a mix of historical perspective and current developments in UFO research. His analysis presents a world in which the lines between national security, scientific research and the search for extraterrestrial life increasingly intersect. This episode of Coast to Coast AM not only illuminated the past, but also shed light on the ongoing efforts to understand and confront the mysteries that still hover in our skies.
