00:00:12,070 --> 00:00:09,270
hello

3
00:00:14,150 --> 00:00:12,080
and welcome to episode number 32 of the

4
00:00:18,790 --> 00:00:14,160
point of convergence podcast

5
00:00:20,870 --> 00:00:18,800
as always i am your host exo academian

6
00:00:23,109 --> 00:00:20,880
for those of us intimately familiar with

7
00:00:25,029 --> 00:00:23,119
the details of the ufo phenomenon

8
00:00:26,470 --> 00:00:25,039
it has been exciting to see both our

9
00:00:28,630 --> 00:00:26,480
elected officials

10
00:00:30,870 --> 00:00:28,640
some of them anyway and the public at

11
00:00:32,790 --> 00:00:30,880
large some of it anyway

12
00:00:34,310 --> 00:00:32,800
finally beginning to take the entire

13
00:00:36,549 --> 00:00:34,320
matter seriously

14
00:00:38,790 --> 00:00:36,559
to us the notion that the human race is

15
00:00:39,670 --> 00:00:38,800
not only not the only true intelligent

16
00:00:42,069 --> 00:00:39,680
species

17
00:00:44,389 --> 00:00:42,079
in the cosmic neighborhood but perhaps

18
00:00:46,869 --> 00:00:44,399
playing second fiddle to intelligences

19
00:00:49,270 --> 00:00:46,879
so advanced that they run circles around

20
00:00:51,590 --> 00:00:49,280
both our most state-of-the-art aircraft

21
00:00:53,590 --> 00:00:51,600
and seemingly around our very ability to

22
00:00:54,310 --> 00:00:53,600
perceive and discern the reality around

23
00:00:59,029 --> 00:00:54,320
us

24
00:01:00,709 --> 00:00:59,039
should be the story of the century

25
00:01:02,869 --> 00:01:00,719
add in the fact that a close and

26
00:01:03,590 --> 00:01:02,879
exhaustive reading of our distant human

27
00:01:05,429 --> 00:01:03,600
lore

28
00:01:07,590 --> 00:01:05,439
suggests that human beings may have been

29
00:01:09,990 --> 00:01:07,600
interacting with these intelligences

30
00:01:11,270 --> 00:01:10,000
since basically the very beginning of

31
00:01:13,350 --> 00:01:11,280
the very beginning

32
00:01:15,429 --> 00:01:13,360
and that perhaps the very meaning models

33
00:01:17,270 --> 00:01:15,439
we look to to make sense of the world

34
00:01:20,149 --> 00:01:17,280
here i speak of our religious traditions

35
00:01:20,950 --> 00:01:20,159
etc may have been spawned by these very

36
00:01:22,950 --> 00:01:20,960
others

37
00:01:23,990 --> 00:01:22,960
this quickly becomes not just the story

38
00:01:26,469 --> 00:01:24,000
of the century

39
00:01:27,990 --> 00:01:26,479
but of all time who wouldn't want to

40
00:01:28,710 --> 00:01:28,000
delve into the very depths of this

41
00:01:31,910 --> 00:01:28,720
subject

42
00:01:32,710 --> 00:01:31,920
investigating every nook and cranny well

43
00:01:34,149 --> 00:01:32,720
as i say

44
00:01:35,830 --> 00:01:34,159
while the public and our elected

45
00:01:37,350 --> 00:01:35,840
officials have a long way to go in

46
00:01:39,990 --> 00:01:37,360
really becoming familiar

47
00:01:42,069 --> 00:01:40,000
with the nuance history of this topic

48
00:01:44,710 --> 00:01:42,079
the conversation has begun

49
00:01:47,670 --> 00:01:44,720
undoubtedly so largely spurred by

50
00:01:49,429 --> 00:01:47,680
revelations that emerged in 2017

51
00:01:54,149 --> 00:01:49,439
and have been rolling out at a fairly

52
00:01:56,310 --> 00:01:54,159
steady clip ever since

53
00:01:58,709 --> 00:01:56,320
this past week marks another important

54
00:02:00,230 --> 00:01:58,719
milestone in that march towards growing

55
00:02:03,270 --> 00:02:00,240
public awareness that

56
00:02:05,270 --> 00:02:03,280
one hopes might lead eventually to the

57
00:02:06,149 --> 00:02:05,280
disclosure many of us have been waiting

58
00:02:07,990 --> 00:02:06,159
for

59
00:02:09,510 --> 00:02:08,000
here i speak of the publication of the

60
00:02:11,990 --> 00:02:09,520
book in plain sight

61
00:02:13,670 --> 00:02:12,000
an investigation into ufos and

62
00:02:16,070 --> 00:02:13,680
impossible science

63
00:02:17,430 --> 00:02:16,080
by award-winning veteran investigative

64
00:02:20,710 --> 00:02:17,440
australian journalist

65
00:02:23,190 --> 00:02:20,720
ross coulthart in the line of books by

66
00:02:25,670 --> 00:02:23,200
american journalists such as leslie kane

67
00:02:27,750 --> 00:02:25,680
and ralph blumenthal this book seeks to

68
00:02:28,710 --> 00:02:27,760
take a nuanced historically rich

69
00:02:31,270 --> 00:02:28,720
discussion

70
00:02:35,110 --> 00:02:31,280
about the ufo phenomenon right into the

71
00:02:36,790 --> 00:02:35,120
town square of public conversation

72
00:02:38,229 --> 00:02:36,800
while there may have been more books

73
00:02:40,949 --> 00:02:38,239
written about ufos and

74
00:02:42,390 --> 00:02:40,959
alien contact than grains of sand on

75
00:02:45,190 --> 00:02:42,400
your local beach

76
00:02:47,190 --> 00:02:45,200
this new release by coldheart is special

77
00:02:48,550 --> 00:02:47,200
because it has the opportunity to reach

78
00:02:50,949 --> 00:02:48,560
a much more mainstream

79
00:02:52,390 --> 00:02:50,959
audience not the least of which includes

80
00:02:54,630 --> 00:02:52,400
cooltart's professional

81
00:02:56,630 --> 00:02:54,640
colleagues in the up until now

82
00:02:57,910 --> 00:02:56,640
notoriously dismissive field of

83
00:02:59,430 --> 00:02:57,920
journalism

84
00:03:01,509 --> 00:02:59,440
in other words this book has the

85
00:03:03,270 --> 00:03:01,519
potential to take a subject that has

86
00:03:03,990 --> 00:03:03,280
been gaining steam over the last few

87
00:03:06,070 --> 00:03:04,000
years

88
00:03:07,670 --> 00:03:06,080
and elevate it into the stratosphere of

89
00:03:09,110 --> 00:03:07,680
public conversation

90
00:03:11,350 --> 00:03:09,120
and that is something to be excited

91
00:03:13,430 --> 00:03:11,360
about to be sure

92
00:03:15,509 --> 00:03:13,440
furthermore what gives this book even

93
00:03:17,509 --> 00:03:15,519
more teeth one might say

94
00:03:20,229 --> 00:03:17,519
is that ross coldheart has done his

95
00:03:22,869 --> 00:03:20,239
homework he's taken years to carefully

96
00:03:25,110 --> 00:03:22,879
meticulously craft a book that not only

97
00:03:26,869 --> 00:03:25,120
accurately depicts ufo events

98
00:03:28,390 --> 00:03:26,879
throughout the course of history

99
00:03:29,350 --> 00:03:28,400
including events from his native

100
00:03:31,270 --> 00:03:29,360
australia

101
00:03:32,550 --> 00:03:31,280
that many american audiences will have

102
00:03:34,470 --> 00:03:32,560
never heard about

103
00:03:35,990 --> 00:03:34,480
but he has done so with a depth of

104
00:03:38,390 --> 00:03:36,000
penetrating analysis

105
00:03:39,030 --> 00:03:38,400
that makes apparent to even a naive

106
00:03:41,589 --> 00:03:39,040
reader

107
00:03:42,630 --> 00:03:41,599
just how shocking preposterous and

108
00:03:44,789 --> 00:03:42,640
disturbing

109
00:03:46,470 --> 00:03:44,799
the government treatment and cover-up of

110
00:03:48,390 --> 00:03:46,480
this essential topic

111
00:03:51,509 --> 00:03:48,400
has been over the course of the last

112
00:03:53,509 --> 00:03:51,519
eight decades or so

113
00:03:55,750 --> 00:03:53,519
not shying away from delving into even

114
00:03:58,229 --> 00:03:55,760
the most controversial but compelling

115
00:04:01,270 --> 00:03:58,239
aspects of the history of this topic

116
00:04:03,270 --> 00:04:01,280
including crashed and landed retrievals

117
00:04:06,070 --> 00:04:03,280
of apparently alien vehicles

118
00:04:07,990 --> 00:04:06,080
and their non-human pilots cool tart has

119
00:04:09,670 --> 00:04:08,000
put together an exemplary reed

120
00:04:11,589 --> 00:04:09,680
that has the potential to serve the

121
00:04:12,470 --> 00:04:11,599
cause of pushing the rock of

122
00:04:14,949 --> 00:04:12,480
confirmation

123
00:04:17,110 --> 00:04:14,959
and eventually perhaps disclosure over

124
00:04:19,189 --> 00:04:17,120
that proverbial hill

125
00:04:21,590 --> 00:04:19,199
coulthard himself finishes his book by

126
00:04:23,110 --> 00:04:21,600
claiming we may seemingly be at the cusp

127
00:04:25,030 --> 00:04:23,120
of a public revelation

128
00:04:28,150 --> 00:04:25,040
that has the potential to change the

129
00:04:30,469 --> 00:04:28,160
world ross coulthart's stellar new book

130
00:04:31,430 --> 00:04:30,479
in plain sight an investigation into

131
00:04:33,909 --> 00:04:31,440
ufos

132
00:04:34,469 --> 00:04:33,919
and impossible science and the shocking

133
00:04:37,030 --> 00:04:34,479
events

134
00:04:38,150 --> 00:04:37,040
from our shared history it uncovers of

135
00:04:40,469 --> 00:04:38,160
the topic of this

136
00:04:44,950 --> 00:04:40,479
the 32nd episode of the point of

137
00:04:51,030 --> 00:04:49,030
[Music]

138
00:04:52,070 --> 00:04:51,040
as we begin this week's episode i would

139
00:04:54,469 --> 00:04:52,080
just like to say

140
00:04:55,270 --> 00:04:54,479
go and buy this book it is a compelling

141
00:04:57,670 --> 00:04:55,280
read

142
00:04:58,710 --> 00:04:57,680
and we want to support people like ross

143
00:05:00,310 --> 00:04:58,720
coulthart

144
00:05:02,310 --> 00:05:00,320
investigative journalists coming from

145
00:05:03,270 --> 00:05:02,320
the mainstream who are willing to tackle

146
00:05:06,550 --> 00:05:03,280
this topic

147
00:05:09,110 --> 00:05:06,560
head on in a really serious way that's

148
00:05:11,430 --> 00:05:09,120
exactly what ross has done

149
00:05:13,350 --> 00:05:11,440
many who have touched on this topic in a

150
00:05:16,390 --> 00:05:13,360
cursory kind of way from the mainstream

151
00:05:18,950 --> 00:05:16,400
previously often gloss over it they

152
00:05:21,189 --> 00:05:18,960
don't really pick up on the implications

153
00:05:22,790 --> 00:05:21,199
one has to really dig deep and read

154
00:05:23,990 --> 00:05:22,800
between the lines because again the

155
00:05:26,390 --> 00:05:24,000
government has not been

156
00:05:28,070 --> 00:05:26,400
forthcoming historically about its

157
00:05:29,189 --> 00:05:28,080
knowledge and involvement with this

158
00:05:32,070 --> 00:05:29,199
topic

159
00:05:32,950 --> 00:05:32,080
one really does have to dig ross has

160
00:05:35,189 --> 00:05:32,960
done that

161
00:05:36,950 --> 00:05:35,199
he's used his seasoned understanding of

162
00:05:38,710 --> 00:05:36,960
how to really dig deep

163
00:05:40,390 --> 00:05:38,720
when you're trying to uncover truth that

164
00:05:42,629 --> 00:05:40,400
is buried deliberately

165
00:05:43,830 --> 00:05:42,639
by governments and he's come up with

166
00:05:47,909 --> 00:05:43,840
some amazing

167
00:05:50,830 --> 00:05:47,919
details this is all in his book

168
00:05:52,950 --> 00:05:50,840
in plain sight excellent book go and buy

169
00:05:54,790 --> 00:05:52,960
it

170
00:05:57,350 --> 00:05:54,800
coldheart coming from mainstream

171
00:05:59,189 --> 00:05:57,360
journalism is in a unique position

172
00:06:01,430 --> 00:05:59,199
to see how this topic has been viewed

173
00:06:03,909 --> 00:06:01,440
historically both in the public

174
00:06:05,189 --> 00:06:03,919
and in domains such as academia and

175
00:06:07,350 --> 00:06:05,199
journalism

176
00:06:09,110 --> 00:06:07,360
he acknowledges he has seen time and

177
00:06:12,870 --> 00:06:09,120
time again that this topic

178
00:06:14,469 --> 00:06:12,880
is the great taboo he writes quote

179
00:06:16,309 --> 00:06:14,479
polls show more than two-thirds of

180
00:06:18,309 --> 00:06:16,319
americans believe the u.s government

181
00:06:20,790 --> 00:06:18,319
knows more than it is letting on

182
00:06:23,110 --> 00:06:20,800
about the phenomenon although to be sure

183
00:06:24,870 --> 00:06:23,120
that does not make their belief true

184
00:06:26,629 --> 00:06:24,880
an enormous number of people believe

185
00:06:28,670 --> 00:06:26,639
there is a vast conspiracy at the

186
00:06:31,430 --> 00:06:28,680
highest levels of the u.s

187
00:06:32,150 --> 00:06:31,440
military-industrial complex concealing

188
00:06:34,790 --> 00:06:32,160
recovered

189
00:06:37,029 --> 00:06:34,800
extraterrestrial craft and perhaps even

190
00:06:39,590 --> 00:06:37,039
the existence of aliens

191
00:06:40,870 --> 00:06:39,600
i suspect scientists reluctance to

192
00:06:41,909 --> 00:06:40,880
intellectually engage with the

193
00:06:43,749 --> 00:06:41,919
phenomenon

194
00:06:46,550 --> 00:06:43,759
and their quick dismissal of any

195
00:06:49,430 --> 00:06:46,560
incidents without serious investigation

196
00:06:51,749 --> 00:06:49,440
accompanied by ridicule and mockery is

197
00:06:52,950 --> 00:06:51,759
actually encouraging this conspiratorial

198
00:06:54,950 --> 00:06:52,960
thinking

199
00:06:56,230 --> 00:06:54,960
in mainstream journalism the dominant

200
00:06:58,629 --> 00:06:56,240
view has always been

201
00:07:00,790 --> 00:06:58,639
and generally continues to be that such

202
00:07:03,670 --> 00:07:00,800
notions of dark conspiracies

203
00:07:04,710 --> 00:07:03,680
are batshit crazy and heaven help you if

204
00:07:07,909 --> 00:07:04,720
you transgress

205
00:07:11,909 --> 00:07:10,950
unquote for many americans as well as

206
00:07:13,589 --> 00:07:11,919
non-americans

207
00:07:16,150 --> 00:07:13,599
used to seeing this topic covered

208
00:07:18,230 --> 00:07:16,160
through the lens of american history

209
00:07:19,510 --> 00:07:18,240
it can be revelatory to see just how

210
00:07:21,909 --> 00:07:19,520
much these events

211
00:07:23,430 --> 00:07:21,919
have been happening historically right

212
00:07:25,670 --> 00:07:23,440
around the world

213
00:07:26,469 --> 00:07:25,680
cool tart gives many of us a new glimpse

214
00:07:28,309 --> 00:07:26,479
into events

215
00:07:29,510 --> 00:07:28,319
that were happening for instance in

216
00:07:31,430 --> 00:07:29,520
australia

217
00:07:32,710 --> 00:07:31,440
just prior to and sometimes

218
00:07:34,790 --> 00:07:32,720
contemporaneous

219
00:07:36,070 --> 00:07:34,800
to famous events happening in the united

220
00:07:38,390 --> 00:07:36,080
states

221
00:07:40,629 --> 00:07:38,400
from his book i quote again quote

222
00:07:42,070 --> 00:07:40,639
strange objects were also being seen in

223
00:07:44,629 --> 00:07:42,080
the southern hemisphere

224
00:07:46,950 --> 00:07:44,639
in february 1947 there were three

225
00:07:48,950 --> 00:07:46,960
independent and well-verified sightings

226
00:07:51,670 --> 00:07:48,960
of a formation of five egg-shaped

227
00:07:52,950 --> 00:07:51,680
wingless and tailless craft flying over

228
00:07:55,909 --> 00:07:52,960
southern australia

229
00:07:57,589 --> 00:07:55,919
which defied official explanation a

230
00:08:00,550 --> 00:07:57,599
farmer on south australia's

231
00:08:01,110 --> 00:08:00,560
ahri peninsula reported seeing five

232
00:08:03,909 --> 00:08:01,120
strange

233
00:08:05,589 --> 00:08:03,919
oblong shaped objects with narrow points

234
00:08:08,629 --> 00:08:05,599
coming up out of the sea

235
00:08:09,990 --> 00:08:08,639
with a smoky grayish color around them i

236
00:08:12,309 --> 00:08:10,000
saw them quite plainly

237
00:08:13,990 --> 00:08:12,319
a mr flabble told the adelaide

238
00:08:15,749 --> 00:08:14,000
advertiser newspaper

239
00:08:17,990 --> 00:08:15,759
they seemed to be floating in the air

240
00:08:19,110 --> 00:08:18,000
from northwest to southeast and caused a

241
00:08:21,350 --> 00:08:19,120
shadow

242
00:08:23,830 --> 00:08:21,360
his account corroborated another made

243
00:08:26,710 --> 00:08:23,840
earlier by workmen at port augusta

244
00:08:27,589 --> 00:08:26,720
260 kilometers northeast who also

245
00:08:30,150 --> 00:08:27,599
reported seeing

246
00:08:31,110 --> 00:08:30,160
five white egg-shaped objects flying in

247
00:08:35,990 --> 00:08:31,120
formation

248
00:08:39,269 --> 00:08:37,829
and now jumping to a later section of

249
00:08:41,750 --> 00:08:39,279
the same part of the book

250
00:08:42,949 --> 00:08:41,760
quote the third sighting of a formation

251
00:08:45,829 --> 00:08:42,959
of five weird

252
00:08:46,790 --> 00:08:45,839
high-speed egg-shaped uaps came two

253
00:08:49,190 --> 00:08:46,800
months later

254
00:08:50,470 --> 00:08:49,200
a thousand kilometers east in new south

255
00:08:53,590 --> 00:08:50,480
wales

256
00:08:56,710 --> 00:08:53,600
a golden-3 farmer working on his rice

257
00:08:57,990 --> 00:08:56,720
harvest looked up to also see five metal

258
00:09:00,070 --> 00:08:58,000
bodies flying in v

259
00:09:01,670 --> 00:09:00,080
formation with the sun glistening on

260
00:09:04,630 --> 00:09:01,680
them the farmer

261
00:09:06,630 --> 00:09:04,640
a mr nettlebeck reportedly estimated the

262
00:09:07,750 --> 00:09:06,640
speed at about one thousand miles an

263
00:09:10,070 --> 00:09:07,760
hour

264
00:09:11,590 --> 00:09:10,080
a curious coincidence indeed that three

265
00:09:14,389 --> 00:09:11,600
separate sets of witnesses

266
00:09:14,790 --> 00:09:14,399
independently saw a similar formation of

267
00:09:17,110 --> 00:09:14,800
five

268
00:09:18,230 --> 00:09:17,120
high-speed egg-shaped objects in

269
00:09:21,190 --> 00:09:18,240
different locations

270
00:09:22,870 --> 00:09:21,200
over 1200 kilometers apart across

271
00:09:25,590 --> 00:09:22,880
southern australia

272
00:09:28,310 --> 00:09:25,600
these events also all happen just before

273
00:09:30,949 --> 00:09:28,320
a citing event in new mexico usa

274
00:09:31,910 --> 00:09:30,959
that for many is the origin myth of the

275
00:09:34,710 --> 00:09:31,920
great modern

276
00:09:35,750 --> 00:09:34,720
extraterrestrial conspiracy theory

277
00:09:41,350 --> 00:09:35,760
roswell

278
00:09:43,110 --> 00:09:41,360
cool tart points out that part of what

279
00:09:45,269 --> 00:09:43,120
has only served to feed

280
00:09:47,030 --> 00:09:45,279
not put out the fire of controversy

281
00:09:48,710 --> 00:09:47,040
around what really happened there

282
00:09:50,070 --> 00:09:48,720
is the fact that the u.s government

283
00:09:53,430 --> 00:09:50,080
continues to change

284
00:09:54,790 --> 00:09:53,440
its account of what happened now i don't

285
00:09:56,710 --> 00:09:54,800
want to get too far into the weeds of

286
00:09:59,190 --> 00:09:56,720
the roswell event because that can be an

287
00:10:02,310 --> 00:09:59,200
entire podcast episode on its own

288
00:10:04,949 --> 00:10:02,320
and in fact will be in the coming weeks

289
00:10:06,630 --> 00:10:04,959
but i would like to recount here what

290
00:10:09,430 --> 00:10:06,640
cool tart has to say

291
00:10:11,990 --> 00:10:09,440
quote the strangest irony of the roswell

292
00:10:12,790 --> 00:10:12,000
affair is that the u.s military's clumsy

293
00:10:15,350 --> 00:10:12,800
response

294
00:10:17,190 --> 00:10:15,360
did much to encourage the perception in

295
00:10:18,550 --> 00:10:17,200
the minds of a substantial portion of

296
00:10:20,310 --> 00:10:18,560
the american public

297
00:10:22,949 --> 00:10:20,320
that there was indeed some kind of

298
00:10:23,990 --> 00:10:22,959
cover-up this is because the u.s air

299
00:10:26,550 --> 00:10:24,000
force has given

300
00:10:28,790 --> 00:10:26,560
four different explanations for what

301
00:10:32,870 --> 00:10:28,800
supposedly happened at roswell

302
00:10:36,389 --> 00:10:32,880
in 1947. officials definitely lied

303
00:10:40,470 --> 00:10:36,399
and covered up the big question is why

304
00:10:42,230 --> 00:10:40,480
unquote thus begins the astounding

305
00:10:43,990 --> 00:10:42,240
historical trend where the u.s

306
00:10:46,230 --> 00:10:44,000
government did its damnedest

307
00:10:47,269 --> 00:10:46,240
to downplay and dismiss the ufo

308
00:10:50,389 --> 00:10:47,279
phenomenon

309
00:10:53,110 --> 00:10:50,399
while it simultaneously and covertly

310
00:10:54,949 --> 00:10:53,120
continue to ramp up its intense interest

311
00:10:57,509 --> 00:10:54,959
and study of it

312
00:11:00,069 --> 00:10:57,519
quoting from the book again quote so

313
00:11:03,030 --> 00:11:00,079
began a curious practice that continued

314
00:11:05,110 --> 00:11:03,040
for decades whereby the u.s air force

315
00:11:08,310 --> 00:11:05,120
publicly and aggressively

316
00:11:10,150 --> 00:11:08,320
debunked all uap sightings but inside

317
00:11:11,030 --> 00:11:10,160
america's military and intelligence

318
00:11:13,430 --> 00:11:11,040
services

319
00:11:14,710 --> 00:11:13,440
the issue was actually being taken very

320
00:11:17,590 --> 00:11:14,720
seriously

321
00:11:19,350 --> 00:11:17,600
in late 1949 the air force office of

322
00:11:21,670 --> 00:11:19,360
special investigations

323
00:11:23,110 --> 00:11:21,680
investigating green fireballs seen over

324
00:11:24,949 --> 00:11:23,120
military sites

325
00:11:26,230 --> 00:11:24,959
confidentially reported that the

326
00:11:28,870 --> 00:11:26,240
continued occurrence

327
00:11:30,550 --> 00:11:28,880
of unexplained phenomena of this nature

328
00:11:31,750 --> 00:11:30,560
in the vicinity of sensitive

329
00:11:35,430 --> 00:11:31,760
installations

330
00:11:37,430 --> 00:11:35,440
is cause for concern sightings reports

331
00:11:41,670 --> 00:11:37,440
kept on flooding into the military

332
00:11:43,829 --> 00:11:41,680
especially after marine corps veteran

333
00:11:46,310 --> 00:11:43,839
donald kehoe published his dramatic

334
00:11:48,790 --> 00:11:46,320
article flying saucers are real

335
00:11:50,790 --> 00:11:48,800
in the popular men's magazine true in

336
00:11:52,470 --> 00:11:50,800
late 1949.

337
00:11:54,949 --> 00:11:52,480
in his best-selling book of the same

338
00:11:56,470 --> 00:11:54,959
name he claimed the u.s air force knew

339
00:11:57,590 --> 00:11:56,480
that the mystery objects were

340
00:11:59,670 --> 00:11:57,600
extraterrestrial

341
00:12:01,590 --> 00:11:59,680
but that it was playing down reports to

342
00:12:03,670 --> 00:12:01,600
avoid a public panic

343
00:12:05,910 --> 00:12:03,680
in an apparent attempt to quell public

344
00:12:08,310 --> 00:12:05,920
interest the air force's first

345
00:12:09,030 --> 00:12:08,320
project grudge report was published soon

346
00:12:10,389 --> 00:12:09,040
after

347
00:12:12,230 --> 00:12:10,399
announcing that it would stop

348
00:12:13,030 --> 00:12:12,240
investigating unidentified flying

349
00:12:15,190 --> 00:12:13,040
objects

350
00:12:16,310 --> 00:12:15,200
and asserting that all such sightings

351
00:12:18,670 --> 00:12:16,320
were the result of

352
00:12:20,710 --> 00:12:18,680
mass hysteria hoaxes or the

353
00:12:24,310 --> 00:12:20,720
misinterpretation of conventional

354
00:12:27,269 --> 00:12:24,320
objects project grudge was ostensibly

355
00:12:27,509 --> 00:12:27,279
still seriously investigating ufos but

356
00:12:29,750 --> 00:12:27,519
as

357
00:12:30,550 --> 00:12:29,760
project insider edward rupelt later

358
00:12:32,710 --> 00:12:30,560
asserted

359
00:12:35,110 --> 00:12:32,720
there was a widespread view that project

360
00:12:40,629 --> 00:12:35,120
grudge was operating under a directive

361
00:12:44,949 --> 00:12:43,269
as i mentioned earlier while again much

362
00:12:46,389 --> 00:12:44,959
of the literature on the history of the

363
00:12:48,230 --> 00:12:46,399
ufo phenomenon

364
00:12:49,829 --> 00:12:48,240
tends to focus on what has happened in

365
00:12:52,069 --> 00:12:49,839
the united states

366
00:12:53,750 --> 00:12:52,079
cool tart reminds us that this was and

367
00:12:56,710 --> 00:12:53,760
of course continues to be

368
00:12:57,670 --> 00:12:56,720
a worldwide phenomenon quoting from his

369
00:13:00,470 --> 00:12:57,680
book again

370
00:13:02,230 --> 00:13:00,480
quote while the u.s air force's project

371
00:13:03,190 --> 00:13:02,240
blue book investigation was still

372
00:13:05,590 --> 00:13:03,200
ramping up

373
00:13:07,190 --> 00:13:05,600
uaps were unhelpfully frustrating

374
00:13:10,230 --> 00:13:07,200
official efforts to suppress

375
00:13:12,310 --> 00:13:10,240
interest in them by regularly showing up

376
00:13:13,670 --> 00:13:12,320
over sensitive defense sites or buzzing

377
00:13:16,389 --> 00:13:13,680
civilian aircraft in

378
00:13:16,870 --> 00:13:16,399
other parts of the world behind the iron

379
00:13:19,110 --> 00:13:16,880
curtain

380
00:13:20,710 --> 00:13:19,120
the subject of ufos had initially been

381
00:13:22,790 --> 00:13:20,720
greeted with derision

382
00:13:25,030 --> 00:13:22,800
the kremlin's tactic was to publicly

383
00:13:27,750 --> 00:13:25,040
debunk all such sightings

384
00:13:29,110 --> 00:13:27,760
however soviet pilots were also seeing

385
00:13:30,710 --> 00:13:29,120
strange things

386
00:13:32,150 --> 00:13:30,720
although the reports were being

387
00:13:35,750 --> 00:13:32,160
suppressed

388
00:13:37,509 --> 00:13:35,760
in 1955 on a visit to the soviet union

389
00:13:39,509 --> 00:13:37,519
the united states senator richard

390
00:13:40,870 --> 00:13:39,519
russell the head of the powerful armed

391
00:13:42,590 --> 00:13:40,880
services committee

392
00:13:44,310 --> 00:13:42,600
looked out of his train window in the

393
00:13:46,470 --> 00:13:44,320
trans-caucasus region

394
00:13:48,710 --> 00:13:46,480
to see a disc shaped object slowly

395
00:13:50,949 --> 00:13:48,720
ascending vertically with its outer

396
00:13:52,949 --> 00:13:50,959
surface revolving slowly and with two

397
00:13:54,870 --> 00:13:52,959
lights visible on the top

398
00:13:56,389 --> 00:13:54,880
it sped off when it hit about six

399
00:13:58,550 --> 00:13:56,399
thousand feet

400
00:14:00,829 --> 00:13:58,560
as russell and his staffer watched one

401
00:14:02,150 --> 00:14:00,839
minute later another craft made the same

402
00:14:04,150 --> 00:14:02,160
maneuver

403
00:14:06,230 --> 00:14:04,160
panicked soviet staff on the train

404
00:14:07,189 --> 00:14:06,240
reportedly shut the curtains across the

405
00:14:09,509 --> 00:14:07,199
train window

406
00:14:11,350 --> 00:14:09,519
and told the senator and his colleagues

407
00:14:14,790 --> 00:14:11,360
not to look outside again

408
00:14:19,430 --> 00:14:17,030
one aspect of cool tarts journalism that

409
00:14:21,670 --> 00:14:19,440
i really appreciate and respect

410
00:14:23,990 --> 00:14:21,680
is that he is actually suspicious of

411
00:14:26,389 --> 00:14:24,000
mass conspiracy stories

412
00:14:29,030 --> 00:14:26,399
he knows by experience that actually

413
00:14:32,230 --> 00:14:29,040
people don't hold secrets for very long

414
00:14:34,710 --> 00:14:32,240
especially large groups of people now

415
00:14:36,710 --> 00:14:34,720
speaking of conspiracies though one of

416
00:14:38,470 --> 00:14:36,720
the questions that arises from many

417
00:14:40,870 --> 00:14:38,480
people when they consider a possible

418
00:14:42,949 --> 00:14:40,880
long-term conspiracy of cover-up within

419
00:14:44,550 --> 00:14:42,959
the u.s and other governments

420
00:14:47,030 --> 00:14:44,560
is how would that kind of secret

421
00:14:49,189 --> 00:14:47,040
possibly be kept wrapped up

422
00:14:50,870 --> 00:14:49,199
wouldn't say an elected official like a

423
00:14:52,230 --> 00:14:50,880
president the supposed leader of

424
00:14:54,310 --> 00:14:52,240
american government

425
00:14:55,430 --> 00:14:54,320
when briefed on such matters decide

426
00:14:58,230 --> 00:14:55,440
enough is enough

427
00:14:58,949 --> 00:14:58,240
let's take this truth to the people well

428
00:15:02,069 --> 00:14:58,959
alas

429
00:15:04,069 --> 00:15:02,079
it's not that simple what we find is a

430
00:15:05,829 --> 00:15:04,079
siloing of information

431
00:15:07,670 --> 00:15:05,839
we're talking about the strictest form

432
00:15:10,310 --> 00:15:07,680
of compartmentalization

433
00:15:12,069 --> 00:15:10,320
where very very few people are even made

434
00:15:15,189 --> 00:15:12,079
aware of the existence

435
00:15:17,269 --> 00:15:15,199
of such programs indeed cooltart

436
00:15:19,990 --> 00:15:17,279
recounts one historical occurrence

437
00:15:22,069 --> 00:15:20,000
when incoming president jimmy carter

438
00:15:24,310 --> 00:15:22,079
famous of course partly for having had

439
00:15:25,750 --> 00:15:24,320
his own personal ufo sighting

440
00:15:30,150 --> 00:15:25,760
sought to learn more about the

441
00:15:34,389 --> 00:15:32,389
quoting from the book again quote

442
00:15:34,949 --> 00:15:34,399
according to celebrated civil rights

443
00:15:37,829 --> 00:15:34,959
attorney

444
00:15:39,030 --> 00:15:37,839
daniel sheehan before carter's january

445
00:15:40,790 --> 00:15:39,040
inauguration

446
00:15:42,550 --> 00:15:40,800
he sought a meeting with the then

447
00:15:44,790 --> 00:15:42,560
director of the cia

448
00:15:46,389 --> 00:15:44,800
george herbert walker bush later the

449
00:15:48,949 --> 00:15:46,399
41st president

450
00:15:50,389 --> 00:15:48,959
but the cia director flatly refused to

451
00:15:53,509 --> 00:15:50,399
give the president-elect

452
00:15:57,350 --> 00:15:53,519
a briefing on ufos telling carter

453
00:15:59,509 --> 00:15:57,360
he had no need to know bush's term as

454
00:16:02,870 --> 00:15:59,519
cia director ended just before the

455
00:16:05,189 --> 00:16:02,880
inauguration in january 1977.

456
00:16:07,030 --> 00:16:05,199
bush suggested the incoming president

457
00:16:08,949 --> 00:16:07,040
instead seek a briefing

458
00:16:10,949 --> 00:16:08,959
through the congressional research

459
00:16:13,189 --> 00:16:10,959
service once in office

460
00:16:14,870 --> 00:16:13,199
president carter pressed the issue and

461
00:16:16,629 --> 00:16:14,880
the congressional research

462
00:16:19,030 --> 00:16:16,639
services specialist on space and

463
00:16:22,389 --> 00:16:19,040
aerospace mercia smith

464
00:16:24,870 --> 00:16:22,399
was tasked to investigate unquote

465
00:16:26,629 --> 00:16:24,880
needless to say president carter never

466
00:16:29,910 --> 00:16:26,639
apparently learned what he was looking

467
00:16:34,230 --> 00:16:31,829
now for the sake of time again i'd like

468
00:16:37,030 --> 00:16:34,240
to move forward both in history

469
00:16:37,749 --> 00:16:37,040
and further into the book enter tom

470
00:16:41,590 --> 00:16:37,759
delong

471
00:16:41,990 --> 00:16:41,600
and ttsa now what cool tart has to say

472
00:16:44,150 --> 00:16:42,000
here

473
00:16:45,189 --> 00:16:44,160
as an outsider observing this entire

474
00:16:46,790 --> 00:16:45,199
scenario

475
00:16:49,110 --> 00:16:46,800
with the background of a seasoned

476
00:16:49,430 --> 00:16:49,120
journalist long-schooled in the way that

477
00:16:52,230 --> 00:16:49,440
both

478
00:16:53,030 --> 00:16:52,240
politicians and military officials tend

479
00:16:55,910 --> 00:16:53,040
to handle

480
00:16:57,910 --> 00:16:55,920
i.e spin public affairs to paint a

481
00:16:59,269 --> 00:16:57,920
prettier and even sympathetic picture of

482
00:17:00,870 --> 00:16:59,279
themselves

483
00:17:03,030 --> 00:17:00,880
in other words what i really appreciate

484
00:17:06,549 --> 00:17:03,040
about cool tart is unlike many of

485
00:17:07,829 --> 00:17:06,559
us he can see this objectively he is not

486
00:17:10,789 --> 00:17:07,839
a ttsa

487
00:17:11,189 --> 00:17:10,799
fanboy so to speak he looks at it from

488
00:17:13,270 --> 00:17:11,199
the

489
00:17:16,069 --> 00:17:13,280
lens of history as an investigative

490
00:17:19,429 --> 00:17:17,990
these are some of cooltart's comments

491
00:17:23,590 --> 00:17:19,439
about tom delonge

492
00:17:25,990 --> 00:17:23,600
and ttsa quote rock star tom delong

493
00:17:27,029 --> 00:17:26,000
has given a series of strange rambling

494
00:17:29,830 --> 00:17:27,039
media interviews

495
00:17:32,310 --> 00:17:29,840
about his secret meetings about uaps

496
00:17:34,630 --> 00:17:32,320
with government and corporate officials

497
00:17:36,789 --> 00:17:34,640
perhaps the wackiest one was the one he

498
00:17:38,789 --> 00:17:36,799
recorded with podcast host

499
00:17:39,830 --> 00:17:38,799
comedian and mixed martial artist

500
00:17:42,950 --> 00:17:39,840
commentator

501
00:17:44,070 --> 00:17:42,960
joe rogan de long told rogan on the joe

502
00:17:46,150 --> 00:17:44,080
rogan experience

503
00:17:48,230 --> 00:17:46,160
that he was given the green light by his

504
00:17:49,270 --> 00:17:48,240
defense and intelligence black world

505
00:17:51,669 --> 00:17:49,280
mentors

506
00:17:53,190 --> 00:17:51,679
to spread the word about an imminent us

507
00:17:56,710 --> 00:17:53,200
government disclosure

508
00:17:58,789 --> 00:17:56,720
of amazing ufo secrets he also claimed

509
00:18:00,150 --> 00:17:58,799
he was schooled by them on how not to

510
00:18:02,710 --> 00:18:00,160
reveal too much

511
00:18:04,789 --> 00:18:02,720
of what he now knew he claimed his

512
00:18:07,110 --> 00:18:04,799
military sources even did a mock

513
00:18:09,110 --> 00:18:07,120
newsweek magazine interview with him

514
00:18:10,310 --> 00:18:09,120
so that they could analyze his answers

515
00:18:13,110 --> 00:18:10,320
and rehearse him

516
00:18:15,270 --> 00:18:13,120
before he gave a real interview it is

517
00:18:16,630 --> 00:18:15,280
instructive to get across the detail of

518
00:18:18,950 --> 00:18:16,640
what tom delong

519
00:18:20,070 --> 00:18:18,960
said in his 100 minute duration joe

520
00:18:22,310 --> 00:18:20,080
rogan interview

521
00:18:23,590 --> 00:18:22,320
and a four-hour george knapp interview

522
00:18:26,630 --> 00:18:23,600
because frankly

523
00:18:27,110 --> 00:18:26,640
if any of what he says he was told is

524
00:18:30,070 --> 00:18:27,120
true

525
00:18:30,549 --> 00:18:30,080
the implications are huge i know a lot

526
00:18:33,029 --> 00:18:30,559
of you

527
00:18:34,070 --> 00:18:33,039
will think de long sounds crazy but as

528
00:18:36,070 --> 00:18:34,080
you will see

529
00:18:37,190 --> 00:18:36,080
i believe there is strong evidence that

530
00:18:39,350 --> 00:18:37,200
certain former

531
00:18:41,110 --> 00:18:39,360
and serving senior officials of the u.s

532
00:18:43,350 --> 00:18:41,120
government and military

533
00:18:44,390 --> 00:18:43,360
definitely met with and briefed tom

534
00:18:46,870 --> 00:18:44,400
delonge

535
00:18:48,710 --> 00:18:46,880
the issue to be debated is whether what

536
00:18:52,870 --> 00:18:48,720
he claims they told him

537
00:18:57,190 --> 00:18:54,950
de long claims he was told by these

538
00:18:59,830 --> 00:18:57,200
senior officials that the u.s government

539
00:19:01,190 --> 00:18:59,840
had indeed secretly retrieved alien

540
00:19:03,669 --> 00:19:01,200
spacecraft

541
00:19:05,430 --> 00:19:03,679
and aliens that there is a secret

542
00:19:06,470 --> 00:19:05,440
struggle underway to master the

543
00:19:09,270 --> 00:19:06,480
technology

544
00:19:10,549 --> 00:19:09,280
and to protect humanity from an imminent

545
00:19:13,029 --> 00:19:10,559
threat

546
00:19:13,830 --> 00:19:13,039
i am in no doubt whatsoever that whether

547
00:19:16,470 --> 00:19:13,840
true or not

548
00:19:18,470 --> 00:19:16,480
these briefings happened i have to admit

549
00:19:20,150 --> 00:19:18,480
i still find it extraordinary

550
00:19:22,470 --> 00:19:20,160
that former and serving military

551
00:19:24,789 --> 00:19:22,480
officials decided to brief the long

552
00:19:25,510 --> 00:19:24,799
but maybe they thought what he might say

553
00:19:28,150 --> 00:19:25,520
would sound

554
00:19:28,710 --> 00:19:28,160
so bad crazy that if he went public

555
00:19:33,190 --> 00:19:28,720
with it

556
00:19:34,950 --> 00:19:33,200
no one would believe him anyway unquote

557
00:19:37,590 --> 00:19:34,960
now at this point i'd like to interject

558
00:19:40,390 --> 00:19:37,600
my own opinion about de long

559
00:19:41,669 --> 00:19:40,400
truthfully even back when ttsa was

560
00:19:43,750 --> 00:19:41,679
making headlines

561
00:19:44,950 --> 00:19:43,760
i always thought the long's involvement

562
00:19:46,549 --> 00:19:44,960
was strange

563
00:19:48,150 --> 00:19:46,559
i thought that he was a strange person

564
00:19:49,909 --> 00:19:48,160
to head ttsa

565
00:19:52,390 --> 00:19:49,919
i understand his money was a large

566
00:19:53,590 --> 00:19:52,400
reason why but still he was strange

567
00:19:55,909 --> 00:19:53,600
choice there

568
00:19:57,350 --> 00:19:55,919
and even more so he seemed a very

569
00:19:59,350 --> 00:19:57,360
strange choice

570
00:20:01,590 --> 00:19:59,360
for a u.s government that supposedly

571
00:20:04,470 --> 00:20:01,600
wanted to finally come clean

572
00:20:06,149 --> 00:20:04,480
about his knowledge and involvement with

573
00:20:09,270 --> 00:20:06,159
recovered ufos and

574
00:20:11,350 --> 00:20:09,280
apparently even alien beings

575
00:20:12,549 --> 00:20:11,360
the reason why i found this a stretch is

576
00:20:14,230 --> 00:20:12,559
because the long

577
00:20:16,870 --> 00:20:14,240
it's not that he's not intelligent he is

578
00:20:19,190 --> 00:20:16,880
an intelligent guy he's a thoughtful guy

579
00:20:20,149 --> 00:20:19,200
he seemed to have decades of knowledge

580
00:20:23,270 --> 00:20:20,159
of this particular

581
00:20:25,029 --> 00:20:23,280
topic but he's remarkably careless in

582
00:20:27,590 --> 00:20:25,039
the things he says

583
00:20:28,950 --> 00:20:27,600
if you wanted to handle this carefully

584
00:20:31,270 --> 00:20:28,960
which you would assume these people

585
00:20:32,710 --> 00:20:31,280
would want to do people on the inside

586
00:20:34,549 --> 00:20:32,720
then you would choose someone with the

587
00:20:36,950 --> 00:20:34,559
public relations background

588
00:20:38,070 --> 00:20:36,960
someone who meticulously chooses every

589
00:20:41,430 --> 00:20:38,080
word they speak

590
00:20:42,070 --> 00:20:41,440
or tweet this is clearly not who tom

591
00:20:45,190 --> 00:20:42,080
delong

592
00:20:47,110 --> 00:20:45,200
is now like

593
00:20:48,230 --> 00:20:47,120
cool tart i have no doubt that these

594
00:20:50,630 --> 00:20:48,240
meetings happened

595
00:20:52,870 --> 00:20:50,640
meetings between tom delong and

596
00:20:55,750 --> 00:20:52,880
high-ranking military officials

597
00:20:58,470 --> 00:20:55,760
of course historically russian hackers

598
00:21:01,430 --> 00:20:58,480
hacked into john podesta's emails

599
00:21:02,070 --> 00:21:01,440
and spilled these to the world and here

600
00:21:04,710 --> 00:21:02,080
we see

601
00:21:05,350 --> 00:21:04,720
confirmation of communication between de

602
00:21:07,750 --> 00:21:05,360
long

603
00:21:08,630 --> 00:21:07,760
podesta and high ranking military

604
00:21:10,789 --> 00:21:08,640
officials

605
00:21:12,470 --> 00:21:10,799
so we know these meetings happen the

606
00:21:14,470 --> 00:21:12,480
question has always been

607
00:21:15,669 --> 00:21:14,480
what was the true purpose of these

608
00:21:17,990 --> 00:21:15,679
meetings

609
00:21:20,149 --> 00:21:18,000
i've never bought the idea that these

610
00:21:23,190 --> 00:21:20,159
officials were encouraged because

611
00:21:23,750 --> 00:21:23,200
tom de long had a unique opportunity and

612
00:21:26,230 --> 00:21:23,760
voice

613
00:21:27,270 --> 00:21:26,240
amongst younger people that never really

614
00:21:31,029 --> 00:21:27,280
jived with me

615
00:21:33,110 --> 00:21:31,039
so what was the true purpose

616
00:21:34,789 --> 00:21:33,120
now ross coulthart has his own

617
00:21:35,590 --> 00:21:34,799
interesting theory as to why these

618
00:21:38,470 --> 00:21:35,600
officials

619
00:21:40,630 --> 00:21:38,480
may have suddenly seen tom delonge as an

620
00:21:41,350 --> 00:21:40,640
opportune escape route based on what was

621
00:21:43,510 --> 00:21:41,360
happening

622
00:21:44,630 --> 00:21:43,520
historically at the time and it has a

623
00:21:46,870 --> 00:21:44,640
lot to do with

624
00:21:48,070 --> 00:21:46,880
both hillary clinton and especially john

625
00:21:50,630 --> 00:21:48,080
podesta's

626
00:21:52,149 --> 00:21:50,640
known desire to get this secret out to

627
00:21:55,029 --> 00:21:52,159
the public

628
00:21:57,590 --> 00:21:55,039
quoting from the book quote throughout

629
00:21:59,669 --> 00:21:57,600
2015 and 2016

630
00:22:00,630 --> 00:21:59,679
the media becomes increasingly sure in

631
00:22:02,630 --> 00:22:00,640
its reporting

632
00:22:03,669 --> 00:22:02,640
that hillary clinton is assert for the

633
00:22:06,230 --> 00:22:03,679
presidency

634
00:22:08,390 --> 00:22:06,240
that donald trump does not have a chance

635
00:22:09,510 --> 00:22:08,400
as a gatekeeper you are now getting very

636
00:22:12,950 --> 00:22:09,520
nervous that come

637
00:22:15,350 --> 00:22:12,960
february 2017 post inauguration

638
00:22:16,149 --> 00:22:15,360
it might be you who is hauled in chains

639
00:22:19,029 --> 00:22:16,159
before

640
00:22:19,909 --> 00:22:19,039
a congressional inquiry to explain why

641
00:22:23,830 --> 00:22:19,919
you hid

642
00:22:26,310 --> 00:22:23,840
the big secret then imagine

643
00:22:27,270 --> 00:22:26,320
along comes tom de long he must seem

644
00:22:29,510 --> 00:22:27,280
like a gift

645
00:22:31,270 --> 00:22:29,520
with a wink and a nod he lets you know

646
00:22:33,430 --> 00:22:31,280
that he knows what you know

647
00:22:34,310 --> 00:22:33,440
it is a huge relief to be able to share

648
00:22:37,510 --> 00:22:34,320
your guilty

649
00:22:39,750 --> 00:22:37,520
70 plus years secret with de long

650
00:22:40,870 --> 00:22:39,760
even better he is offering you a way to

651
00:22:42,990 --> 00:22:40,880
let the public know

652
00:22:45,510 --> 00:22:43,000
about it that makes the entire

653
00:22:49,029 --> 00:22:45,520
military-industrial complex cover-up

654
00:22:49,990 --> 00:22:49,039
sound like a bed of roses why the long

655
00:22:52,470 --> 00:22:50,000
even suggests

656
00:22:53,350 --> 00:22:52,480
he can make young millennials actually

657
00:22:55,110 --> 00:22:53,360
like you

658
00:22:57,270 --> 00:22:55,120
he also reassures you that he

659
00:22:57,909 --> 00:22:57,280
understands all this national security

660
00:22:59,830 --> 00:22:57,919
stuff

661
00:23:01,270 --> 00:22:59,840
and that he will seek your permission

662
00:23:03,510 --> 00:23:01,280
and get your approval

663
00:23:04,870 --> 00:23:03,520
for what he is allowed to say about what

664
00:23:07,430 --> 00:23:04,880
you all knew about

665
00:23:09,350 --> 00:23:07,440
the big secret you will get to control

666
00:23:11,750 --> 00:23:09,360
the disclosure narrative

667
00:23:12,470 --> 00:23:11,760
hell yeah this is our sort of guy you

668
00:23:16,149 --> 00:23:12,480
think

669
00:23:19,110 --> 00:23:16,159
unquote now as we all know

670
00:23:19,909 --> 00:23:19,120
history continues to roll on and soon

671
00:23:22,549 --> 00:23:19,919
tom delong

672
00:23:23,510 --> 00:23:22,559
and ttsa announced they have meta

673
00:23:25,350 --> 00:23:23,520
materials

674
00:23:26,789 --> 00:23:25,360
and that they are cooperating with the

675
00:23:30,070 --> 00:23:26,799
us military

676
00:23:31,510 --> 00:23:30,080
to apparently develop reverse engineered

677
00:23:33,830 --> 00:23:31,520
craft

678
00:23:35,590 --> 00:23:33,840
now being the veteran investigative

679
00:23:38,549 --> 00:23:35,600
journalist that ross cool tart

680
00:23:40,630 --> 00:23:38,559
is again with a long story career that

681
00:23:42,070 --> 00:23:40,640
involves seeing how politicians and

682
00:23:44,310 --> 00:23:42,080
military officials

683
00:23:45,990 --> 00:23:44,320
spun events to present their own actions

684
00:23:48,149 --> 00:23:46,000
in a rosier light

685
00:23:49,590 --> 00:23:48,159
cool tart can't help but connect dots

686
00:23:51,669 --> 00:23:49,600
here answering

687
00:23:53,190 --> 00:23:51,679
this intriguing question about why this

688
00:23:56,789 --> 00:23:53,200
partnership would exist

689
00:23:59,269 --> 00:23:56,799
with his own provocative answer quote

690
00:24:00,230 --> 00:23:59,279
why would a uap disclosure activist

691
00:24:02,710 --> 00:24:00,240
organization

692
00:24:04,230 --> 00:24:02,720
cooperate with the u.s military it has

693
00:24:05,750 --> 00:24:04,240
openly suggested

694
00:24:09,029 --> 00:24:05,760
is hiding these breakthrough

695
00:24:11,269 --> 00:24:09,039
technologies i suspect the real agenda

696
00:24:12,110 --> 00:24:11,279
behind the deal with the military is

697
00:24:15,590 --> 00:24:12,120
that the

698
00:24:17,430 --> 00:24:15,600
crada will finally allow the military

699
00:24:19,510 --> 00:24:17,440
to share at least some of what it has

700
00:24:23,269 --> 00:24:19,520
known about metamaterials

701
00:24:25,669 --> 00:24:23,279
all along unquote

702
00:24:27,350 --> 00:24:25,679
now one question cooltart repeatedly

703
00:24:29,510 --> 00:24:27,360
pursues in this book

704
00:24:31,590 --> 00:24:29,520
is whether or not the us government or

705
00:24:32,390 --> 00:24:31,600
some rogue element that has broken off

706
00:24:35,510 --> 00:24:32,400
from it

707
00:24:37,430 --> 00:24:35,520
has actually recovered downed ufos the

708
00:24:40,310 --> 00:24:37,440
reason why he pursues this question

709
00:24:41,990 --> 00:24:40,320
so doggedly is not just because it keeps

710
00:24:43,909 --> 00:24:42,000
popping up again and again

711
00:24:45,430 --> 00:24:43,919
in the literature and the historical

712
00:24:47,669 --> 00:24:45,440
record but because

713
00:24:49,750 --> 00:24:47,679
coldheart being very familiar with the

714
00:24:52,390 --> 00:24:49,760
taboo nature of this topic

715
00:24:53,590 --> 00:24:52,400
amongst the general public knows that if

716
00:24:55,590 --> 00:24:53,600
proven true

717
00:24:56,710 --> 00:24:55,600
this fact would become the proverbial

718
00:24:59,029 --> 00:24:56,720
golden goose

719
00:25:00,310 --> 00:24:59,039
the game changer the discovery that

720
00:25:02,950 --> 00:25:00,320
forces the public

721
00:25:04,149 --> 00:25:02,960
and our elected officials to face up to

722
00:25:06,710 --> 00:25:04,159
a revelation that

723
00:25:08,950 --> 00:25:06,720
certainly should change our entire

724
00:25:11,510 --> 00:25:08,960
understanding of reality

725
00:25:12,070 --> 00:25:11,520
it would once and for all make what

726
00:25:14,149 --> 00:25:12,080
should be

727
00:25:15,430 --> 00:25:14,159
the story of the millennium and really

728
00:25:19,669 --> 00:25:15,440
of all time

729
00:25:23,430 --> 00:25:19,679
headline news everywhere

730
00:25:26,710 --> 00:25:23,440
now as we all know luis elizondo goes on

731
00:25:29,909 --> 00:25:26,720
to say to tucker carlson on

732
00:25:30,950 --> 00:25:29,919
national tv that it is his opinion his

733
00:25:33,510 --> 00:25:30,960
informed opinion

734
00:25:34,149 --> 00:25:33,520
that yes the us government does have

735
00:25:37,350 --> 00:25:34,159
recovered

736
00:25:40,789 --> 00:25:37,360
alien craft elizondo said the u.s

737
00:25:42,710 --> 00:25:40,799
holds alien technology period

738
00:25:44,149 --> 00:25:42,720
now this is what cool tart says about

739
00:25:47,110 --> 00:25:44,159
this revelation

740
00:25:47,669 --> 00:25:47,120
quote this is big news but there was no

741
00:25:50,630 --> 00:25:47,679
media

742
00:25:51,590 --> 00:25:50,640
apart from researcher james ian doley's

743
00:25:55,110 --> 00:25:51,600
twitter feed

744
00:25:55,990 --> 00:25:55,120
engaging the phenomenon ian doley asked

745
00:25:58,470 --> 00:25:56,000
former bigelow

746
00:25:59,350 --> 00:25:58,480
national institute of discovery science

747
00:26:02,630 --> 00:25:59,360
nids

748
00:26:04,070 --> 00:26:02,640
scientist dr eric davis his views about

749
00:26:06,950 --> 00:26:04,080
elizondo's claim

750
00:26:09,269 --> 00:26:06,960
of recovered extraterrestrial debris

751
00:26:10,230 --> 00:26:09,279
davis sent this intriguingly mischievous

752
00:26:13,029 --> 00:26:10,240
reply

753
00:26:14,950 --> 00:26:13,039
quote luis elizondo's very brief answer

754
00:26:16,870 --> 00:26:14,960
to tucker carlson's question

755
00:26:18,549 --> 00:26:16,880
about whether the u.s government is in

756
00:26:21,750 --> 00:26:18,559
possession of recovered

757
00:26:22,549 --> 00:26:21,760
crashed and landed ufo technology

758
00:26:26,149 --> 00:26:22,559
hardware

759
00:26:27,590 --> 00:26:26,159
is thousand percent accurate my national

760
00:26:29,430 --> 00:26:27,600
security ndas

761
00:26:30,789 --> 00:26:29,440
prevent me from adding any further

762
00:26:33,990 --> 00:26:30,799
comment on this

763
00:26:37,909 --> 00:26:35,830
now parenthetically i would just like to

764
00:26:38,789 --> 00:26:37,919
add that james ian doley is a good

765
00:26:41,110 --> 00:26:38,799
friend of mine

766
00:26:42,470 --> 00:26:41,120
and it's always good to see good friends

767
00:26:44,950 --> 00:26:42,480
who are doing great work

768
00:26:46,630 --> 00:26:44,960
get recognized like james is in this

769
00:26:49,110 --> 00:26:46,640
book

770
00:26:51,590 --> 00:26:49,120
now let's move forward again for the

771
00:26:54,310 --> 00:26:51,600
sake of time

772
00:26:56,630 --> 00:26:54,320
now in the final chapters of the book

773
00:26:58,310 --> 00:26:56,640
ross coulthart continues to doggedly

774
00:26:59,990 --> 00:26:58,320
pursue this question about whether or

775
00:27:03,190 --> 00:27:00,000
not the u.s government

776
00:27:06,710 --> 00:27:03,200
has indeed recovered alien technology

777
00:27:07,669 --> 00:27:06,720
craft even intact and landed craft using

778
00:27:10,789 --> 00:27:07,679
that quote from

779
00:27:11,909 --> 00:27:10,799
eric davis again cooltart goes on to

780
00:27:14,549 --> 00:27:11,919
discuss the famous

781
00:27:16,390 --> 00:27:14,559
admiral wilson documents this is all

782
00:27:18,870 --> 00:27:16,400
about what happened when

783
00:27:20,789 --> 00:27:18,880
after edgar mitchell passed documents

784
00:27:23,830 --> 00:27:20,799
were released from his estate

785
00:27:25,750 --> 00:27:23,840
and one of those documents purportedly

786
00:27:27,029 --> 00:27:25,760
talked about a meeting between eric

787
00:27:30,149 --> 00:27:27,039
davis and

788
00:27:31,269 --> 00:27:30,159
admiral tom wilson where wilson famously

789
00:27:32,950 --> 00:27:31,279
talks about

790
00:27:34,870 --> 00:27:32,960
even though he had a high position where

791
00:27:37,269 --> 00:27:34,880
he should have been able to uncover

792
00:27:38,389 --> 00:27:37,279
any kind of black ops operation and

793
00:27:41,190 --> 00:27:38,399
learn about it

794
00:27:41,990 --> 00:27:41,200
when he pursued this question of trying

795
00:27:45,029 --> 00:27:42,000
to uncover

796
00:27:46,870 --> 00:27:45,039
a supposed alien retrieval

797
00:27:48,230 --> 00:27:46,880
kind of black ops that was now

798
00:27:50,149 --> 00:27:48,240
interested in reverse

799
00:27:52,950 --> 00:27:50,159
engineering these craft he was

800
00:27:54,789 --> 00:27:52,960
stonewalled he was even told his career

801
00:27:57,510 --> 00:27:54,799
would hit a dead end if he continued to

802
00:28:02,549 --> 00:28:00,149
now cooltart also goes on to discuss and

803
00:28:04,310 --> 00:28:02,559
investigate a series of strange

804
00:28:06,789 --> 00:28:04,320
and controversial patents that were

805
00:28:09,029 --> 00:28:06,799
filed shortly afterwards

806
00:28:10,710 --> 00:28:09,039
that seemed to discuss a technology that

807
00:28:13,430 --> 00:28:10,720
should not even exist

808
00:28:13,909 --> 00:28:13,440
a technology that purportedly could

809
00:28:16,549 --> 00:28:13,919
propel

810
00:28:18,310 --> 00:28:16,559
something like a tic tac now for those

811
00:28:20,389 --> 00:28:18,320
who believe there actually is

812
00:28:21,830 --> 00:28:20,399
a functional program that has

813
00:28:24,950 --> 00:28:21,840
successfully reverse

814
00:28:26,950 --> 00:28:24,960
engineered alien technology this patent

815
00:28:28,950 --> 00:28:26,960
makes perfect sense

816
00:28:30,710 --> 00:28:28,960
now cool tart leaves open the question

817
00:28:31,350 --> 00:28:30,720
about whether or not these patents are

818
00:28:33,029 --> 00:28:31,360
real

819
00:28:36,070 --> 00:28:33,039
and whether or not they actually are

820
00:28:40,549 --> 00:28:36,080
indicative of something like the tic tac

821
00:28:43,029 --> 00:28:40,559
but quoting from the book again quote

822
00:28:44,870 --> 00:28:43,039
a field generator can create a polarized

823
00:28:46,630 --> 00:28:44,880
energy field that creates a quantum

824
00:28:49,110 --> 00:28:46,640
vacuum around the craft

825
00:28:50,389 --> 00:28:49,120
which allows it to reduce mass this

826
00:28:52,630 --> 00:28:50,399
enables it to repel

827
00:28:54,710 --> 00:28:52,640
any air or water molecules and

828
00:28:57,590 --> 00:28:54,720
supposedly also makes possible

829
00:28:59,510 --> 00:28:57,600
faster than light travel it also means

830
00:29:02,470 --> 00:28:59,520
that any occupant does not feel

831
00:29:04,230 --> 00:29:02,480
aerodynamic or hydrodynamic forces

832
00:29:05,990 --> 00:29:04,240
which would explain why they are not

833
00:29:08,870 --> 00:29:06,000
mashed up into soup

834
00:29:10,149 --> 00:29:08,880
by the extreme g-forces any such craft

835
00:29:13,669 --> 00:29:10,159
would indubitably

836
00:29:16,149 --> 00:29:13,679
inflict unquote

837
00:29:17,029 --> 00:29:16,159
now just to be absolutely clear some of

838
00:29:20,070 --> 00:29:17,039
these patents

839
00:29:21,110 --> 00:29:20,080
were awarded in other words the u.s

840
00:29:23,110 --> 00:29:21,120
patent office said

841
00:29:24,789 --> 00:29:23,120
okay this technology has been

842
00:29:26,389 --> 00:29:24,799
demonstrated to exist

843
00:29:28,789 --> 00:29:26,399
to a degree which we are willing to

844
00:29:30,630 --> 00:29:28,799
grant this patent which in itself is

845
00:29:32,870 --> 00:29:30,640
surprising and hard to understand

846
00:29:34,230 --> 00:29:32,880
because this technology purportedly

847
00:29:37,110 --> 00:29:34,240
doesn't even exist yet

848
00:29:39,029 --> 00:29:37,120
so how is this really demonstrated very

849
00:29:42,470 --> 00:29:39,039
confusing and it makes you wonder what

850
00:29:44,789 --> 00:29:42,480
is really going on behind the scenes

851
00:29:46,950 --> 00:29:44,799
now again the reason why cool tart is

852
00:29:49,990 --> 00:29:46,960
pursuing this series of questions

853
00:29:51,110 --> 00:29:50,000
so doggedly is because he knows if it

854
00:29:52,870 --> 00:29:51,120
can be proven

855
00:29:54,710 --> 00:29:52,880
that this kind of reverse engineered

856
00:29:56,950 --> 00:29:54,720
program does exist

857
00:29:58,950 --> 00:29:56,960
and even more significantly if it has

858
00:30:01,029 --> 00:29:58,960
been successful

859
00:30:02,070 --> 00:30:01,039
then this will change the world this

860
00:30:04,710 --> 00:30:02,080
will force

861
00:30:05,830 --> 00:30:04,720
his journalistic colleagues politicians

862
00:30:09,669 --> 00:30:05,840
and the general public

863
00:30:11,830 --> 00:30:09,679
everywhere to pay attention

864
00:30:13,269 --> 00:30:11,840
and now in conclusion i'd like to share

865
00:30:16,789 --> 00:30:13,279
some of ross cool tart's

866
00:30:17,269 --> 00:30:16,799
final words quote so what do i know for

867
00:30:19,830 --> 00:30:17,279
sure

868
00:30:21,269 --> 00:30:19,840
after two years down the rabbit hole i

869
00:30:23,110 --> 00:30:21,279
have no doubt at all

870
00:30:24,710 --> 00:30:23,120
that the us government is hiding

871
00:30:27,430 --> 00:30:24,720
extraordinary secrets

872
00:30:29,190 --> 00:30:27,440
about the phenomenon the categorical

873
00:30:30,789 --> 00:30:29,200
statements made by defense and

874
00:30:33,909 --> 00:30:30,799
intelligence insiders

875
00:30:36,149 --> 00:30:33,919
dr eric davis and luis elizondo and the

876
00:30:38,870 --> 00:30:36,159
more qualified assertions by christopher

877
00:30:40,870 --> 00:30:38,880
mellon and former senator harry reid

878
00:30:42,389 --> 00:30:40,880
suggests that the united states has

879
00:30:45,029 --> 00:30:42,399
indeed recovered

880
00:30:46,310 --> 00:30:45,039
non-human intelligently manufactured

881
00:30:48,870 --> 00:30:46,320
technology

882
00:30:50,710 --> 00:30:48,880
a conclusion that makes my head spin

883
00:30:53,190 --> 00:30:50,720
unquote

884
00:30:54,310 --> 00:30:53,200
and following this cool tart says this

885
00:30:56,950 --> 00:30:54,320
quote

886
00:30:57,590 --> 00:30:56,960
i venture the u.s has been wrestling for

887
00:30:59,669 --> 00:30:57,600
years

888
00:31:00,950 --> 00:30:59,679
with how to break this shocking news to

889
00:31:03,350 --> 00:31:00,960
the public

890
00:31:04,470 --> 00:31:03,360
not least because it has flatly lied to

891
00:31:07,830 --> 00:31:04,480
its citizens

892
00:31:09,190 --> 00:31:07,840
for 75 years and criminally prosecuted

893
00:31:12,149 --> 00:31:09,200
those who threatened

894
00:31:14,070 --> 00:31:12,159
the big secret too many insiders have

895
00:31:14,630 --> 00:31:14,080
dropped too many hints for me not to

896
00:31:16,789 --> 00:31:14,640
think

897
00:31:18,789 --> 00:31:16,799
that there is a reckoning coming i

898
00:31:21,190 --> 00:31:18,799
suspect the quest to unravel

899
00:31:22,470 --> 00:31:21,200
one of humanity's greatest mysteries

900
00:31:27,110 --> 00:31:22,480
will very soon

901
00:31:29,430 --> 00:31:27,120
have the beginnings of an answer unquote

902
00:31:30,630 --> 00:31:29,440
and on that note we've come to the close

903
00:31:33,509 --> 00:31:30,640
of another edition

904
00:31:34,630 --> 00:31:33,519
of the point of convergence podcast as i

905
00:31:36,789 --> 00:31:34,640
said at the outset

906
00:31:38,789 --> 00:31:36,799
let's support ross coulthart's work

907
00:31:39,590 --> 00:31:38,799
let's go buy this book and share it with

908
00:31:42,950 --> 00:31:39,600
our friends

909
00:31:44,549 --> 00:31:42,960
our family our colleagues etc because of

910
00:31:46,950 --> 00:31:44,559
the nature of this book

911
00:31:47,590 --> 00:31:46,960
it's dogged determinism to get at the

912
00:31:49,190 --> 00:31:47,600
truth

913
00:31:51,590 --> 00:31:49,200
and because it's written by a

914
00:31:53,669 --> 00:31:51,600
well-respected investigative journalist

915
00:31:54,630 --> 00:31:53,679
from the mainstream it has the

916
00:31:56,950 --> 00:31:54,640
opportunity

917
00:31:58,870 --> 00:31:56,960
to take this conversation to an entirely

918
00:32:00,870 --> 00:31:58,880
new level

919
00:32:02,230 --> 00:32:00,880
but until next time friends from deep

920
00:32:05,430 --> 00:32:02,240
within the blue ridge mountains
