it's very, very likely there's life outside our solar system, but I don't have any evidence of it

If there's no evidence of it (circumstantial evidence included), what makes you think it's very likely?

I assume they meant direct evidence. It's truth or falseness do not affect us, we must extrapolate from our knowledge of the structure of the universe.
