On Saturdays, and only on Saturdays, at 3:33 a.m., you can receive an alien broadcast. You'll need to have a television inside your home. If you meet these conditions, you'll be visited by an eerie alien shape on your TV that's trying to say something. There has been a lot of confusion about what the alien is trying to communicate. Check out the article below; no one knows exactly what it's saying, but there's speculation that the alien is trying to talk about its spaceship.
