Martin Willis is an American broadcaster and independent producer best known for creating and hosting Podcast UFO. With a background that includes art, antiques, and radio, he developed the program into a long-running weekly venue for conversations about unidentified aerial phenomena and their history.

Willis built Podcast UFO into a durable weekly institution through consistency rather than a single breakout case. The program has hosted hundreds of conversations and live shows, giving both celebrated witnesses and obscure local researchers time to describe their work. His relaxed style encourages biography and case history to emerge together. Over years, the archive became a cross-section of the field’s changing priorities, from classic sightings and physical traces to military video, legislation, whistleblowers, and consciousness.

Willis has interviewed military witnesses, pilots, scientists, historians, experiencers, government figures, filmmakers, and skeptical analysts. The show’s longevity gives it archival value: guests can be compared across years as cases evolve, documents emerge, and public positions change. Willis generally acts as a facilitator, allowing interviewees to explain their work or experience in detail rather than imposing a single theory of the phenomenon.

Live audience programs and conference involvement deepened Willis’s role inside the community he covers. He is not simply collecting remote interviews; he has become a familiar moderator who brings competing personalities into the same public space. That continuity gives the show an unusually personal memory of alliances, disagreements, and recurring cases.

Willis has built a substantial oral-history archive through long-form media coverage of UAP. By maintaining a dedicated interview program through changing cycles of public attention, he has recorded researchers, witnesses, authors, and skeptics who might otherwise appear only briefly in the news. That continuity is his principal contribution to the UAP record: preserving how participants describe their work and experiences in their own voices.
