In this video Dan Akyroyd describes how his SciFI television series "Out There" (about UFOs and abductions) was abruptly cancelled - without explanation - only hours after his bizarre encounter with a menacing looking man who emerged from a black sedan, on a New Your street. The men in the car and the vehicle, according to Akroyd, practically vanished in front of his eyes as he took a smoke break during taping of the final episode of the show. The show was cancelled, two hours later, and no episodes have ever been aired.
Dan Akroyd has seen four UFO sightings in his lifetime and on Sway in the Morning, he tells the story behind each one.

Aykroyd displays an encyclopedic knowledge of both physics and UFO history/culture, and bends thoughts and possibilities in ways only he could do, and at times with an uncomfortable (even to Dan!) sense of dark humor for which he is world renown. Who are they? What are they? Why are they here? How do they come and go? Are we their future lunch? Are they here to save us from ourselves? Or are we going to step right into the Twilight Zone and experience a cosmic hoodwink? Sereda masterfully intrigues Aykroyd with all the right elements, and Dan just pours forth an unabashed, intellectually inspiring examination of the big issues in UFOlogy like a seasoned professor. There's not a dull moment in this superb interview which is interspliced with fascinating UFO footage and visuals. Aykroyd come...
