Man Claims Ongoing Communication with Aliens - Shawn Neubauer | ep. 97
"I have I have three police files um over three different times. Um, and when I talked to the Mounties, cuz we're in Canada, the professional who came in who handles it the last time I I talked to somebody, he's like, "I've been doing this for 25 years. I've never seen anything even close to what you have, and that was only one file.""
Neubauer alleges years of “electronic harassment”, including accounts of unauthorised logins and unfamiliar files appearing on his devices. He says he reported the activity to police on three occasions and claims an RCMP officer told him the evidence was unlike anything he had seen in 25 years.

About this episode

Area52 interviews Canadian author Shawn Neubauer, who says he has had ongoing communication with non-human entities since an episode of “missing time” in Cancún around 15 years ago. Neubauer describes hearing voices and seeing imagery he characterises as a “language of memes”, which he says evolved over time into a persistent, on-demand interface. He repeatedly frames his account as an engineering problem and says he sought psychiatric assessment and medical testing; he claims clinicians found no psychiatric disorder.

A central element of his story is a purported physical implant in his lip. Neubauer says it has been imaged (including MRI and X-ray) and alleges it can affect scans. He also alleges sustained “electronic harassment”, including unexplained access to accounts and large volumes of unfamiliar files appearing on his devices, and says he made three police reports.

Beyond personal claims, Neubauer outlines an expansive narrative about extraterrestrials operating in the Solar System for energy resources, including alleged undersea infrastructure and “trickster” behaviour. He argues the entities use implanted devices to collect behavioural data at scale, including to detect deception.

Neubauer says he is attempting to translate what he has learned into technology, including a wireless brain–computer interface aimed initially at sleep modulation, and calls for outside specialists to help validate (or falsify) his technical and forensic claims.
