Today's Poll Question: Do you agree with Obama on Aliens?
Podcast: The Smerconish PodcastPublished On: Wed Feb 18 2026
Description: Today's Poll Question at Smerconish.com: Do you agree with President Obama who says "The odds are good that there's life out there...but... the chances we've been visited by aliens is low"? After former President Obama reignites curiosity about extraterrestrial life in a recent podcast interview, Michael revisits the alien question through the lens of skepticism, science, and personal experience. Featuring insights from skeptic Michael Shermer and a personal, memorable Oval Office moment involving the “Book of Secrets,” this episode separates the probability of life elsewhere in the universe from claims of UFO visits and government cover-ups. Is believing in alien life reasonable—and is believing they’ve been here a bridge too far? Cast your vote and join the conversation, and please rate, review, and share this podcast!
