High Strange Season 2, Episode 1 - Friendly Universe

High Strange Season 2 goes deeper into real encounters, credible witnesses, and the explanations that never seem to stick. More firsthand accounts. Bigger moments. And more times where the official story starts to wobble.
This isn’t about believing everything. It’s about following the story until it actually makes sense… or until it gets too strange to ignore.
New season. Same curiosity. Same skepticism.
Still probably not a weather balloon.
