Avi Loeb is quite good at talking reasonably about treating extraterrestrial intelligence as an actual possibility for some observed phenomenon or other (anomalous acceleration seen in the extrasolar object ʻOumuamua as an example) in a way that sounds rational to me and also gets him tons of media attention.
