Episode 263: Crop Circles: Global Hoax or Supernatural Phenom?

Subscribe: TuneIn | RSS

On this episode of The Sofa King Podcast, we look at the global phenomenon of Crop Circles. Also called “The Devil’s Circles,” these often massive shapes appear in crops all over the world, most commonly in Southern England. They range from simple circles in the crops to multiple circles inside of circles and even massive mathematical equations rendered in the fields of unwitting farmers. They are enormous arrangements, sometimes hundreds of feet wide, and the way the stalks of the crops are bent but not destroyed is a bit of a mystery to most researchers.

While Crop Circles were first photographed in the 1970s, some claim references of them go all the way back to the 1600s and even earlier. Back then, they were attributed to the devil or fairies, but now they are of course blamed on UFOs, space aliens, and shadow governments. At the peak of their occurrence in the late 1990s (back in X-Files Times), thousands of them appeared through all of Europe every year.

Of course, while many point to the supernatural as the cause of the Crip Circles, many humans claim to have made them. Doug Bower and Dave Chorley famously claimed to have created some of the most important Crop Circles in England and are infamous hoaxers and the best human Circle creators known. Many people have recreated Circles using things as sophisticated as microwave transmissions or as basic as a rope and a length of wood.

But claims that they appear in some circumstances in mere minutes and footage of unidentified flying objects over the new Crop Circles make some of the hoax assertions harder to believe. The famous footage of the 1990 UFOs over the Milk Hill Crop Circle is one solid example.

However, true cereologists claim that while these hoaxes exist, true Crop Circles—ones that emit radiation and often glow—are not of human design. So, what else could cause them? What countries are they found in? Why would someone go through the trouble? Listen, laugh, learn.
