About this listen
In this episode of Unexplained History, we investigate some of the most chilling and unexplained broadcast intrusions ever recorded. From the 1977 Southern Television hijacking where a voice claiming to represent the Ashtar Galactic Command interrupted the news, to the infamous Max Headroom broadcast hijacking that stunned Chicago in 1987, these events shattered public trust in the airwaves.
We explore how pirate signals, satellite hijackings, and mysterious intruders overpowered major broadcasters, baffled engineers, and evaded authorities. Who were the people behind these intrusions? Were they pranksters, protesters, psychological provocateurs—or something stranger?
By examining Cold War paranoia, early satellite technology, official investigations, and unresolved cases, we ask a disturbing question:
If someone can hijack the signal… who really controls reality?
