Riley Martin is the author of the book The Coming of Tan, which describes his life and his abduction by aliens and the host of The Riley Martin Show (aka Hello Earth) on Sirius Satellite Radio. Martin was born in 1946 in Mississippi to a family of sharecroppers of African American and Native American descent. He claims he was first abducted by aliens while living in Arkansas in November of 1953.[1]

Martin describes seven types of extraterrestrial beings who reside in a mother ship near Saturn:

  • the Biaviians, the aliens who have had the most interaction with Martin, who are short with large heads,
  • the Targzissians, who are malevolent reptilians,
  • the Stagyians, who have a bony, leathery appearance and a peaceful and scientific disposition,
  • the Dorians, who resemble blonde-haired, blue-eyed humans (see Nordic aliens),
  • the Insectillians (aka the Skreed), who are "smart bugs" five feet tall,
  • the Nyptonians, who are "water people" with "underwater bases" on Earth,[2]
  • a seventh race of aliens whose name Martin can't pronounce.

See Martin's illustrations of the different intelligent beings.

Martin has characterized his interaction with the aliens as positive. The Biaviian alien O-Qua Tangin Wann (also known as Tan), is listed as the co-author of his book.[3] Martin asserts that knowledge was downloaded into his brain by the aliens. He first appeared on the Howard Stern Show in 1996 and has been a frequent guest on it since as well as on the paranormal-themed show Coast to Coast AM. Howard Stern and his crew enjoy imitating Martin's colorful manner of speaking and drawl.

Martin on Sirius Satellite Radio

On March 272006, Riley Martin was given a one hour tryout radio show entitled Hello Earth (more commonly referred to as The Riley Martin Show) on Sirius Satellite Radio's Howard 101. The show featured Martin telling his story with occasional questions by Curtis "Coopy Coop" Cooperman, his publisher and cohost, and did not feature phone calls. The show was very well received by Howard Stern and his fans.

On April 3, 2006, Martin appeared on an episode of the Sirius radio show Meet the Shrink, which featured an unusual therapy session. Martin spoke of his paranormal experiences and ideas and did great deal of flirting with the therapist, Dr. Leslie Armstrong, who openly supported his paranormal ideas and wasn't entirely unreceptive to his flirting.

The Riley Martin Show returned to Sirius radio on May 1, 2006. Starting with this second show, phone calls were prominently and effectively featured. On May 8, 2006 Martin put forth the idea that alien pioneers came to the Earth in prehistoric times and wiped out the dinosaurs with nuclear weapons, making room for our mammalian ancestors. Martin also plugged his hand drawn symbols, which are available for purchase at his website and can allegedly be used as "tickets" to ride in the mother ship when and if the Earth is destroyed in 2012. On May 23, 2006, when Martin was asked if the Biaviians were Greys, he responded that they are not only different, but that the Grey aliens are a cross between the Targzissians and humans (explaining their unpleasant nature) and live in subterranean caverns on Venus.

On May 24, 2006 Martin called in to the Stern Show to demand more money for his radio show. He showed his angry side, which only comes out occasionally, swearing and raising his voice. He also used racial slurs, calling Stern a "cheap Jew bastard" and Robin Quivers a "house nigger bitch" and played the race card, implying that he is being cheated due to his race.
