Episode 207: The Alien Photo That Shut Down 4Chan

It’s the Season 7 Premiere!! Welcome, Haunties, to “Episode 207: The Alien Photo That Shut Down 4Chan”. On February 22, 2017, a photograph supposedly depicting an alien was posted to 4Chan’s paranormal board, /x/. The post was entitled “24489 Taken approximately 24 miles northwest of Luke Air Force Base Phoenix Arizona Lab H4C”. The picture was online for no more than 30-60 seconds at most before, without warning, the entire 4Chan website crashed and went offline. Since then, hundreds of threads have sprang forth on Reddit, 4Chan, Facebook, Quora, Instagram, TikTok, and more as internet sleuths try to track down the photo and determine its legitimacy. Join us on this wild season opener as we fall down an internet rabbit hole, examine potential recreations of the photo, and even interview a 4Channer who was there when the original post went down!
