Referring to the Barney and Betty Hill story, the podcast host revealed that women’s strawweight fighter Angela Hill was the granddaughter to the duo who were part of a well-known alleged alien abduction news in 1961.

“The signal goes out through the universe, ok these f***ks are blowing themselves up, let’s go visit and that’s the UFO folklore,” he said. “That’s when they all started showing up and that’s when you get like all the different crazy like Betty and Barney Hill, abduction stories, all that stuff.”

That’s when Rogan decided to disclose to Tallent about Angela Hill and her connection to the abduction story of Barney and Betty Hill. “I know one of their granddaughters, Angela Hill. She’s a fighter. She fights in the UFC,” he stated, much to the surprise of his guest.

While this piece of news must have been new for many of Rogan’s listeners; ardent fans of JRE will remember Hill’s earlier appearance at the podcast when she briefly talked about it as well.
