<p>What if someone went missing… and actually came back?</p><p>This week, we head into the mountains of Wyoming to look at a case that starts off simple - just a guy taking a day off to go elk hunting -and turns into something that <em>doesn’t</em> fit neatly into <em>any</em> explanation.</p><p>Because at some point during that hunt… something happens. Something that affects the environment around him. Something he can’t explain.</p><p>And something that, by all accounts, shouldn’t be possible.</p><p>What follows is one of the strangest encounters we’ve ever covered - filled with moments that feel grounded and real… right up until they don’t.</p><p>And then it just keeps going.</p><p>The deeper you get into this story, the harder it is to pin down what actually happened, and maybe more importantly… what almost happened.</p><p>Because this isn’t just a story about an encounter. It’s a story about what comes after.</p><p>What it’s like to come back from something you can’t explain. </p><p>What it does to your memory. Your sense of reality. Your understanding of what’s possible.</p><p>And whether or not you ever really leave it behind.</p><p>We also zoom out and look at how this case fits into a much bigger picture.</p><p>Other strange incidents in remote wilderness areas.</p><p>Stories that share similar details, even when they’re separated by decades.</p><p>And the uncomfortable possibility that this might not be as isolated as it seems.</p><p>This episode is about:<br />A hunting trip that takes a turn into something unexplainable.A moment where the normal rules… stop applying.An encounter that feels just close enough to reality to be unsettling.And the question of what it really means to come back from something like this.</p><p>Because sometimes the strangest part of a story… isn’t what happens.</p><p>It’s what almost happened.</p><p>If you’ve ever heard a case and thought, “there’s more to this than we’re being told…”</p><p>This one’s for you.</p><p><strong>Stay curious.Stay weird.Be Forever Rad.</strong></p><p><br /></p><p><strong>CONNECT WITH US</strong></p><p>📲 Instagram: @thatwouldberadTag us or DM your favorite alien encounters, sci-fi theories, or movie rabbit holes.</p><p>🎙 Share a Story / Send a Voice Message:<a href="⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠thatwouldberadpodcast.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠thatwouldberadpodcast.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠</a></p><p>✉️ Email:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠<a href="mailto:[email protected]" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">⁠[email protected]⁠</a>⁠⁠</p><p>SHOW INFO</p><p>Hosts &amp; Producers: Woody Brown &amp; Tyler BenceRecorded At: Midnight Radio Studios</p><p>Sound Wizardry:• Woody Brown — Sound Design, Editing, &amp; Music• Tyler Bence — Mixing, Mastering, &amp; Art Design</p><p>Outro Jam: “Ghost Story” by The Modern Society</p><p><strong>RAD WAYS TO SUPPORT OUR SHOW</strong></p><p>🎧 Join Our Patreon: Exclusive episodes, bonus content, and behind-the-scenes weirdness —<a href="⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠patreon.com/thatwouldberad⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠patreon.com/thatwouldberad⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠</a></p><p>☕️ Buy Us a Coffee: Fuel our late-night deep dives —<a href="⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠buymeacoffee.com/thatwouldberad⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠buymeacoffee.com/thatwouldberad⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠</a></p><p>🛍 Check Out Our Merch: Grab official RAD gear —<a href="⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠thatwouldberad.myspreadshop.com⁠⁠" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠thatwouldberad.myspreadshop.com⁠⁠</a></p>
