Bigelow Podcast | Three beings at the bedside: Bigelow and Nolan's childhood encounters | Oct. 13, 2026

Description:
In this episode of the Bigelow Podcast, Robert Bigelow reveals a childhood experience he kept private for most of his life. At age 8, three short, hooded figures stood beside his bed, silent and motionless. It happened about four times. He wasn't afraid.

His story began earlier. Robert's grandparents were driving home from the mountains when a glowing object grew until it filled their windshield, then vanished with a sharp turn. They arrived home hours late, a classic sign of missing time. They refused to talk about it for the rest of their lives. Days later, Robert's mother and grandparents watched a large craft hover over a mountain before it disappeared.

Then Stanford geneticist Dr. Garry Nolan joins the conversation. Nolan describes nearly the same scene from his own childhood: three figures in his bedroom, pressure on the edge of the bed, and a face at a window far too high for anyone to reach. The two men had never spoken before last week.
