we all die 50 00:03:24,530 --> 00:03:20,580 alone 51 00:03:29,990 --> 00:03:27,170 started off I I like we were talking 52 00:03:31,610 --> 00:03:30,000 about earlier uh before the show I I'm 53 00:03:34,309 --> 00:03:31,620 unstuck from time so I don't really 54 00:03:37,430 --> 00:03:34,319 realize what happened in 2022 55 00:03:38,869 --> 00:03:37,440 . and so many friends did yes there's 56 00:03:40,729 --> 00:03:38,879 been I mean I even just think about 57 00:03:44,750 --> 00:03:40,739 since the last time we had an episode 58 00:03:47,089 --> 00:03:44,760 how much has actually transpired true 59 00:03:48,770 --> 00:03:47,099 it's been a busy couple weeks in ufology 60 00:03:51,949 --> 00:03:48,780 particularly I would say our little 61 00:03:53,570 --> 00:03:51,959 microcosm of UFO Twitter that's true 62 00:03:56,170 --> 00:03:53,580 um 63 00:03:59,509 --> 00:03:56,180 yeah and I think that uh we can make a 64 00:04:01,789 --> 00:03:59,519 significant delineation between the 65 00:04:03,410 --> 00:04:01,799 culture stuff going on on like the UFO 66 00:04:05,869 --> 00:04:03,420 Twitter side and then like the big 67 00:04:07,910 --> 00:04:05,879 picture stuff and uh based on the topics 68 00:04:10,130 --> 00:04:07,920 we've come brought together to go over 69 00:04:11,990 --> 00:04:10,140 tonight that that seems like kind of the 70 00:04:13,789 --> 00:04:12,000 the two things that are the broad 71 00:04:15,649 --> 00:04:13,799 subjects in what we're going to talk 72 00:04:18,530 --> 00:04:15,659 about 73 00:04:20,210 --> 00:04:18,540 yes yeah 74 00:04:22,189 --> 00:04:20,220 well are we going to start with actual 75 00:04:25,189 --> 00:04:22,199 UFO news stuff or are we going to start 76 00:04:26,930 --> 00:04:25,199 with the Twitter stuff 77 00:04:29,629 --> 00:04:26,940 let's start with 78 00:04:32,270 --> 00:04:29,639 um actual UFO stuff I think that seems 79 00:04:33,590 --> 00:04:32,280 more appropriate and more palatable 80 00:04:35,270 --> 00:04:33,600 um and just so you gentlemen know I have 81 00:04:36,909 --> 00:04:35,280 shared out the stream yard link so we're 82 00:04:39,890 --> 00:04:36,919 going to open up I think talking about 83 00:04:42,230 --> 00:04:39,900 uh on our Google doc we have the Calvin 84 00:04:43,670 --> 00:04:42,240 UFO photo that's a good one to start 85 00:04:46,129 --> 00:04:43,680 with yeah I think that's really good 86 00:04:48,710 --> 00:04:46,139 because that's also as part of the big 87 00:04:50,510 --> 00:04:48,720 phone home three we came together and 88 00:04:51,890 --> 00:04:50,520 we're in that hour panel talking about 89 00:04:53,530 --> 00:04:51,900 it as one of the first things we did 90 00:04:55,670 --> 00:04:53,540 together as the invisible night school 91 00:04:58,310 --> 00:04:55,680 that's true 92 00:05:00,650 --> 00:04:58,320 um now correct me if I'm wrong uh Nick 93 00:05:02,689 --> 00:05:00,660 Pope who was heavily involved with this 94 00:05:04,610 --> 00:05:02,699 whole Calvin story and kind of he was 95 00:05:06,650 --> 00:05:04,620 the impetus of it that's how anyone even 96 00:05:09,409 --> 00:05:06,660 knows that there was a missing photo or 97 00:05:12,170 --> 00:05:09,419 photos he still hasn't made a comment on 98 00:05:14,030 --> 00:05:12,180 this right like to this date 99 00:05:15,890 --> 00:05:14,040 I'm not aware of it making any comments 100 00:05:18,290 --> 00:05:15,900 I don't think so someone in the chat 101 00:05:21,230 --> 00:05:18,300 chime in if I'm wrong but I'm like 99 102 00:05:23,870 --> 00:05:21,240 sure he still will not comment on this 103 00:05:25,550 --> 00:05:23,880 however uh 104 00:05:26,570 --> 00:05:25,560 I noticed during the time that it was 105 00:05:28,010 --> 00:05:26,580 floating around 106 00:05:29,749 --> 00:05:28,020 um and then it was 107 00:05:32,749 --> 00:05:29,759 being talked about 108 00:05:35,029 --> 00:05:32,759 um he 109 00:05:37,070 --> 00:05:35,039 he kept putting he kept posting that uh 110 00:05:40,129 --> 00:05:37,080 that Recreation and talking about the 111 00:05:41,930 --> 00:05:40,139 the mountains and the the landscape in 112 00:05:44,810 --> 00:05:41,940 the photo which is clearly missing from 113 00:05:47,270 --> 00:05:44,820 that new photo that new photo newly 114 00:05:49,490 --> 00:05:47,280 released photo so it makes me wonder if 115 00:05:53,029 --> 00:05:49,500 he's like kind of sub-vocally saying 116 00:05:55,790 --> 00:05:53,039 that like no this isn't it I mean 117 00:05:57,290 --> 00:05:55,800 um to me that photo isn't 118 00:05:58,969 --> 00:05:57,300 I don't necessarily think it's very 119 00:06:00,650 --> 00:05:58,979 significant 120 00:06:02,390 --> 00:06:00,660 um you you can't take anything away from 121 00:06:04,550 --> 00:06:02,400 it it's an anomalous photo whether it is 122 00:06:06,710 --> 00:06:04,560 a hoax or you know actually something 123 00:06:08,450 --> 00:06:06,720 hanging there I 124 00:06:11,029 --> 00:06:08,460 I was really partial to the reflection 125 00:06:12,830 --> 00:06:11,039 in the pond Theory until I saw that uh 126 00:06:15,290 --> 00:06:12,840 star-shaped Christmas ornament which 127 00:06:18,770 --> 00:06:15,300 seemed to check all the boxes for me too 128 00:06:20,450 --> 00:06:18,780 so that that's where I'm at with it um 129 00:06:22,129 --> 00:06:20,460 like what can you draw from that really 130 00:06:23,390 --> 00:06:22,139 I know a lot of people went out to the 131 00:06:24,710 --> 00:06:23,400 location we're trying to find the exact 132 00:06:26,930 --> 00:06:24,720 shot it was 133 00:06:28,070 --> 00:06:26,940 or the exact position that the photo was 134 00:06:30,170 --> 00:06:28,080 shot and stuff like that I don't know if 135 00:06:32,090 --> 00:06:30,180 they ever came to any agreement on that 136 00:06:34,370 --> 00:06:32,100 but like what can you even take away 137 00:06:37,370 --> 00:06:34,380 anything from a single photo 138 00:06:39,770 --> 00:06:37,380 no certainly not uh but but it was a 139 00:06:41,749 --> 00:06:39,780 really interesting photo because when I 140 00:06:42,950 --> 00:06:41,759 first started reading about UFO stuff 141 00:06:47,990 --> 00:06:42,960 trying to figure out what was going on 142 00:06:50,570 --> 00:06:48,000 the Calvin uh photo Saga did come up and 143 00:06:52,670 --> 00:06:50,580 I was pretty excited when I heard that 144 00:06:55,309 --> 00:06:52,680 it came out just to sort of see from a 145 00:06:58,370 --> 00:06:55,319 historical perspective what all the fuss 146 00:07:01,670 --> 00:06:58,380 was about uh what Nick Pope had pushed 147 00:07:04,550 --> 00:07:01,680 uh this whole side of things so much uh 148 00:07:08,330 --> 00:07:04,560 just in terms of Nick Poe he worked at 149 00:07:10,850 --> 00:07:08,340 the UK Ministry of defenses UFO desk 150 00:07:12,110 --> 00:07:10,860 which was the public facing desk for the 151 00:07:14,270 --> 00:07:12,120 ministry of Defense where they would 152 00:07:16,309 --> 00:07:14,280 collect the reports and send them around 153 00:07:18,170 --> 00:07:16,319 inside the government when he quit there 154 00:07:19,909 --> 00:07:18,180 he then moved into writing books about 155 00:07:22,430 --> 00:07:19,919 being a UFO investigator there's no 156 00:07:24,170 --> 00:07:22,440 evidence of that he uh infamously called 157 00:07:26,689 --> 00:07:24,180 himself the fox Mulder of like the 158 00:07:29,990 --> 00:07:26,699 administrative defense or whatever 159 00:07:32,749 --> 00:07:30,000 um he made a lot of claims and now he's 160 00:07:35,510 --> 00:07:32,759 sort of just this uh long-term figure in 161 00:07:38,330 --> 00:07:35,520 the UFO Community who is certainly I 162 00:07:40,730 --> 00:07:38,340 would say on the non-human intelligence 163 00:07:42,529 --> 00:07:40,740 side of things but he also is a little 164 00:07:44,330 --> 00:07:42,539 bit slippery with his views he doesn't 165 00:07:48,409 --> 00:07:44,340 like to get locked down 166 00:07:50,749 --> 00:07:48,419 yeah that's yeah that's accurate 167 00:07:52,430 --> 00:07:50,759 now I either you you mentioned that it 168 00:07:53,749 --> 00:07:52,440 hasn't been proven that he investigated 169 00:07:55,850 --> 00:07:53,759 these cases yeah I've heard some 170 00:07:57,830 --> 00:07:55,860 contention about his even even his role 171 00:07:59,350 --> 00:07:57,840 in the mod I heard he that he may have 172 00:08:02,450 --> 00:07:59,360 just been a desk clerk 173 00:08:06,409 --> 00:08:02,460 effectively that's correct yes okay 174 00:08:08,150 --> 00:08:06,419 I I even like I I didn't dive in Fox 175 00:08:10,550 --> 00:08:08,160 Mulder was in the basement with all the 176 00:08:12,469 --> 00:08:10,560 file folders so perhaps the uh 177 00:08:14,689 --> 00:08:12,479 comparison is more apt than we're 178 00:08:19,249 --> 00:08:14,699 willing to give credit right now yeah no 179 00:08:22,550 --> 00:08:19,259 it would be a literal real fox model and 180 00:08:24,050 --> 00:08:22,560 that sucks so what was his what was kind 181 00:08:26,450 --> 00:08:24,060 of like the outline of his story right 182 00:08:29,150 --> 00:08:26,460 he uh while he was working in in this 183 00:08:30,890 --> 00:08:29,160 desk job this UFO desk 184 00:08:33,949 --> 00:08:30,900 um he claimed that some of the guys had 185 00:08:37,370 --> 00:08:33,959 the photo of this Calvin UFO he claimed 186 00:08:39,949 --> 00:08:37,380 the office manager had a poster of it on 187 00:08:42,769 --> 00:08:39,959 the wall of the office yeah 188 00:08:46,070 --> 00:08:42,779 and then it got mysteriously taken down 189 00:08:48,590 --> 00:08:46,080 right yeah um which which adds some 190 00:08:50,329 --> 00:08:48,600 Mystique to the story of course but like 191 00:08:51,590 --> 00:08:50,339 still isn't painting a full enough 192 00:08:54,470 --> 00:08:51,600 picture to like 193 00:08:56,329 --> 00:08:54,480 take anything away from this story right 194 00:08:58,430 --> 00:08:56,339 yeah we also have a comment here from 195 00:09:00,470 --> 00:08:58,440 spooky that Pope claimed to have 196 00:09:02,750 --> 00:09:00,480 investigated crop circles though the mod 197 00:09:04,970 --> 00:09:02,760 said this never happened 198 00:09:06,290 --> 00:09:04,980 um what I would say though isn't it of 199 00:09:07,850 --> 00:09:06,300 course right they would never admit to 200 00:09:09,230 --> 00:09:07,860 this stuff kidding 201 00:09:12,290 --> 00:09:09,240 but yeah 202 00:09:14,090 --> 00:09:12,300 that's interesting I was gonna say so I 203 00:09:15,290 --> 00:09:14,100 have waiting backstage one of my friends 204 00:09:16,550 --> 00:09:15,300 Luke 205 00:09:19,490 --> 00:09:16,560 um I was

00:13:33,060 across this really cool video of what 319 00:13:39,829 --> 00:13:35,459 looked like a UFO through like the 320 00:13:41,629 --> 00:13:39,839 window of an airplane and I shared it on 321 00:13:43,790 --> 00:13:41,639 Reddit or something and one of the first 322 00:13:46,430 --> 00:13:43,800 comments was like holy crap this might 323 00:13:48,470 --> 00:13:46,440 be the most convincing footage I've ever 324 00:13:50,269 --> 00:13:48,480 seen and it made me feel kind of weird 325 00:13:53,629 --> 00:13:50,279 so I pulled it down and I lost the link 326 00:13:56,210 --> 00:13:53,639

leading 358 00:15:10,970 --> 00:15:09,360 hypothesis for what it might be if it's 359 00:15:13,009 --> 00:15:10,980 not um 360 00:15:13,970 --> 00:15:13,019 uh these one of you said that like the 361

00:15:25,250 --> 00:15:22,320 now I mean you ask yeah it's strikingly 365 00:15:26,930 --> 00:15:25,260 similar to a a standard five-point star 366 00:15:29,030 --> 00:15:26,940 Christmas ornament turned on its side 367 00:15:31,550 --> 00:15:29,040 including the little nub that you hang 368 00:15:35,090 --> 00:15:31,560 the little liner Hook from to hang from 369 00:15:35,740 --> 00:15:35,100 a tree I mean it it's it's pretty pretty 370 00:15:36,410 --> 00:15:35,750 similar 371 00:15:40,430 --> 00:15:36,420 [Music] 372 00:15:46,490 --> 00:15:43,490 who knows who knows it's not very 373 00:15:50,269 --> 00:15:46,500 convincing to me it does not yeah it 374 00:15:52,790 --> 00:15:50,279 depends on uh who you ask for Dr David 375 00:15:54,110 --> 00:15:52,800 Clark the uh assistant professor at 376 00:15:56,030 --> 00:15:54,120 Sheffield Holland University in 377 00:15:59,810 --> 00:15:56,040 journalism he's the one who uh 378 00:16:00,829 --> 00:15:59,820 originally foiled the uh the original he 379 00:16:03,170 --> 00:16:00,839 was actually hired by the national 380 00:16:04,970 --> 00:16:03,180 archives in the UK after he successfully 381 00:16:06,230 --> 00:16:04,980 Floyd some of their sensitive documents 382 00:16:08,449 --> 00:16:06,240 they brought him on and he actually 383 00:16:10,430 --> 00:16:08,459 worked with them to declassify things 384 00:16:12,829 --> 00:16:10,440 and he found evidence that this photo 385 00:16:15,050 --> 00:16:12,839 existed in that time period of it 15 386 00:16:16,670 --> 00:16:15,060 years ago and he actually was heavily 387 00:16:18,710 --> 00:16:16,680 involved in the release of it now and he 388 00:16:20,150 --> 00:16:18,720 thinks and I don't support his view but 389 00:16:22,069 --> 00:16:20,160 he thinks the most likely explanation 390 00:16:24,949 --> 00:16:22,079 for what we're looking at here is a 391 00:16:26,329 --> 00:16:24,959 American uh black Tech project uh that 392 00:16:27,889 --> 00:16:26,339 he thinks it's the uh I can't remember 393 00:16:31,009 --> 00:16:27,899 what they call the Aurora or something 394 00:16:33,050 --> 00:16:31,019 the Imagine or you know the thick the 395 00:16:34,970 --> 00:16:33,060 don't want to be offensive here uh the 396 00:16:36,650 --> 00:16:34,980 the thing that is speculated to uh 397 00:16:38,829 --> 00:16:36,660 explain a lot of these uh triangles in 398 00:16:41,329 --> 00:16:38,839 the sky but um 399 00:16:43,430 --> 00:16:41,339 yes thank you 400 00:16:44,749 --> 00:16:43,440 I don't know about all that no I don't 401 00:16:47,749 --> 00:16:44,759 accept that but that's the the 402 00:16:49,910 --> 00:16:47,759 researcher who's actually a professor uh 403 00:16:51,650 --> 00:16:49,920 you know it thinks that uh I don't 404 00:16:52,970 --> 00:16:51,660 accept it so it really depends who you 405 00:16:55,850 --> 00:16:52,980 ask 406 00:16:58,850 --> 00:16:55,860 is this the same photo that he alludes 407 00:17:00,110 --> 00:16:58,860 to in um his uh chapter in Leslie 408 00:17:09,530 --> 00:17:00,120 Keane's book 409 00:17:11,809 --> 00:17:10,069 um 410 00:17:14,870 --> 00:17:11,819 Nick Pope had a chapter that he 411 00:17:17,270 --> 00:17:14,880 contributed and he had some photo that 412 00:17:19,549 --> 00:17:17,280 he thinks is like maybe the best 413 00:17:22,010 --> 00:17:19,559 evidence that the mod had is that the 414 00:17:24,409 --> 00:17:22,020 one if it was powerful then yes but like 415 00:17:27,470 --> 00:17:24,419 I said he hasn't specifically said if 416 00:17:29,810 --> 00:17:27,480 this was actually the one which I think 417 00:17:31,430 --> 00:17:29,820 he's being very careful about doing and 418 00:17:33,710 --> 00:17:31,440 it seems very intentional he can just 419 00:17:37,669 --> 00:17:33,720 kind of play up that mystery right 420 00:17:40,250 --> 00:17:37,679 yep yep so we just had avocado jump into 421 00:17:41,630 --> 00:17:40,260 the Green Room salute thank you so much 422

usually just 428 00:18:01,909 --> 00:17:58,860 admire you from afar the kind of 429 00:18:04,330 --> 00:18:01,919 prototypical Twitter social relationship 430 00:18:07,070 --> 00:18:04,340 I'm a real human not a cat 431 00:18:09,409 --> 00:18:07,080 yeah I'm not a cat yeah thanks for 432 00:18:12,049 --> 00:18:09,419 finally making the show live too 433 00:18:14,029 --> 00:18:12,059 yeah of course 434 00:18:15,890 --> 00:18:14,039 you know I have not read your paper on 435 00:18:19,010 --> 00:18:15,900 glossolalia yet 436 00:18:21,710 --> 00:18:19,020 it's you know it's like 12 to 13 pages 437 00:18:24,350 --> 00:18:21,720 so it's it's kind of dense I get it I 438 00:18:26,210 --> 00:18:24,360 just you know I'm lazy about reading 439 00:18:28,010 --> 00:18:26,220 I'll get to it I promise and we'll 440 00:18:30,650 --> 00:18:28,020 probably talk about on here some really 441 00:18:33,049 --> 00:18:30,660 what's the abstract 442 00:18:35,270 --> 00:18:33,059 yeah so essentially um what I did was 443 00:18:37,850 --> 00:18:35,280 look at psychological implications 444 00:18:40,490 --> 00:18:37,860 for glossolalia um looking at past 445 00:18:41,570 --> 00:18:40,500 research and then current research 446 00:18:43,490 --> 00:18:41,580 um 447 00:18:44,930 --> 00:18:43,500 and it kind of the past research kind of 448 00:18:49,850 --> 00:18:44,940 falls into 449 00:18:51,470 --> 00:18:49,860 issues that a lot of religious phenomena 450 00:18:53,750 --> 00:18:51,480 go through where you get a lot of people 451 00:18:55,730 --> 00:18:53,760 who already have preset beliefs going 452 00:18:57,909 --> 00:18:55,740 into the research which kind of 453 00:19:00,850 --> 00:18:57,919 dominated the field of psychology 454 00:19:03,409 --> 00:19:00,860 especially in the like 40s 50s and 60s 455 00:19:04,310 --> 00:19:03,419 as like theories and methods we're still 456 00:19:07,010 --> 00:19:04,320 kind of being 457 00:19:09,350 --> 00:19:07,020 laid out and tested 458 00:19:12,409 --> 00:19:09,360 um so originally it was looked at as 459 00:19:15,470 --> 00:19:12,419 some kind of 460 00:19:17,049 --> 00:19:15,480 uh what's the word I'm looking for here 461 00:19:20,330 --> 00:19:17,059 um 462 00:19:21,950 --> 00:19:20,340 psychogenetic like illnesses essentially 463 00:19:24,409 --> 00:19:21,960 um 464 00:19:27,529 --> 00:19:24,419 it was look at as could potentially be 465 00:19:29,090 --> 00:19:27,539 schizophrenia hysteria a lot of things 466 00:19:30,770 --> 00:19:29,100 like that and then it eventually moved 467 00:19:32,870 --> 00:19:30,780 into more 468 00:19:34,549 --> 00:19:32,880 behavioral and personality disorder 469 00:19:36,770 --> 00:19:34,559 issues 470 00:19:39,350 --> 00:19:36,780 um and now it's moved into 471 00:19:40,870 --> 00:19:39,360 a focus of it seems to be more of like a 472 00:19:43,370 --> 00:19:40,880 social contagion 473 00:19:47,210 --> 00:19:43,380 this sounds like Morgellons 474 00:19:48,770 --> 00:19:47,220 too yeah a little bit yeah um and it's 475 00:19:50,270 --> 00:19:48,780 kind of branched off two ways where you 476 00:19:53,870 --> 00:19:50,280 have this kind of social context 477 00:19:55,909 --> 00:19:53,880 depending glossolalia and then you have 478 00:19:57,529 --> 00:19:55,919 um contextless 479 00:20:00,289 --> 00:19:57,539 it's oscillating essentially which would 480 00:20:02,330 --> 00:20:00,299 be um spontaneous glossalega this is 481 00:20:04,450 --> 00:20:02,340 more associated with like shamanic 482 00:20:08,150 --> 00:20:04,460 cultures would you be able to Define 483 00:20:09,890 --> 00:20:08,160 glossolalia for me and um your education 484 00:20:11,090 --> 00:20:09,900 background it's in religious studies or 485 00:20:13,010 --> 00:20:11,100 something is that right 486 00:20:14,870 --> 00:20:13,020 yeah so I've got I've currently got a 487 00:20:16,909 --> 00:20:14,880 bachelor's in psychology and religious 488 00:20:21,650 --> 00:20:16,919 studies 489 00:20:23,570 --> 00:20:21,660 so glossolalia is the enunciation the 490 00:20:25,490 --> 00:20:23,580 true definition is the spontaneous 491 00:20:27,350 --> 00:20:25,500 enunciation of 492 00:20:29,090 --> 00:20:27,360 sounds and noises that have no 493 00:20:30,289 --> 00:20:29,100 discernible meaning 494 00:20:32,990 --> 00:20:30,299 um 495 00:20:34,730 --> 00:20:33,000 as opposed to xenolalia 496 00:20:36,789 --> 00:20:34,740 which is speaking in actual language 497 00:20:39,529 --> 00:20:36,799 spontaneously that you don't know 498 00:20:41,029 --> 00:20:39,539 xenialalia is seen a little bit in the 499 00:20:43,549 --> 00:20:41,039 book of Acts 500 00:20:45,890 --> 00:20:43,559 and then it very quickly in the Bible 501 00:20:48,350 --> 00:20:45,900 morphs into glossolalia 502 00:20:51,169 --> 00:20:48,360 um there's a lot of debate Within 503 00:20:52,130 --> 00:20:51,179 Christian scholarship as to why that 504 00:20:52,850 --> 00:20:52,140 happened 505 00:20:55,490 --> 00:20:52,860 um 506 00:20:57,950 --> 00:20:55,500 more so I would say it runs in the fact 507 00:20:59,590 --> 00:20:57,960 that Xena lalia is almost impossible to 508 00:21:01,610 --> 00:20:59,600 happen so 509 00:21:02,870 --> 00:21:01,620 glossolalia is the true thing that was 510 00:21:04,190 --> 00:21:02,880 going on 511 00:21:06,110 --> 00:21:04,200 um I think it just through 512 00:21:08,450 --> 00:21:06,120 interpretation of Storytelling turned 513 00:21:11,150 --> 00:21:08,460 into some xenolalia Tales 514 00:21:12,730 --> 00:21:11,160 but the modern research 515 00:21:15,890 --> 00:21:12,740 like I said sees more of that 516 00:21:18,049 --> 00:21:15,900 spontaneous glossolalia in 517 00:21:20,390 --> 00:21:18,059 shamanic cultures and then in certain 518 00:21:22,970 --> 00:21:20,400 Christian Traditions um a lot of them 519 00:21:27,669 --> 00:21:22,980 like charismatic Pentecostal Traditions 520 00:21:31,070 --> 00:21:27,679 during like uh baptism of the Holy Ghost 521 00:21:33,289 --> 00:21:31,080 and a lot of times it starts there and 522 00:21:35,750 --> 00:21:33,299 then it becomes a social 523 00:21:40,010 --> 00:21:35,760 context dependent issue 524 00:21:45,350 --> 00:21:43,010 obviously there is like a 525 00:21:47,630 --> 00:21:45,360 phenomenon that exists as far as the 526 00:21:49,310 --> 00:21:47,640 spontaneous but then the the social 527 00:21:50,350 --> 00:21:49,320 aspect of it I think is what's more 528 00:21:52,970 --> 00:21:50,360 interesting 529 00:21:54,529 --> 00:21:52,980 and how you're able to practice this 530 00:21:56,090 --> 00:21:54,539 afterwards while you're doing mundane 531 00:21:58,250 --> 00:21:56,100 tasks and it shows that there's like a 532 00:22:00,409 --> 00:21:58,260 disassociation from the original 533 00:22:02,029 --> 00:22:00,419 phenomenon itself 534 00:22:03,770 --> 00:22:02,039 I think the form that most people would 535 00:22:05,330 --> 00:22:03,780 be familiar with is like in the large 536 00:22:07,370 --> 00:22:05,340 churches the speaking in tongues and 537 00:22:09,110 --> 00:22:07,380 I've always kind of without looking into 538 00:22:11,570 --> 00:22:09,120 it just kind of Presumed it works in a 539 00:22:13,190 --> 00:22:11,580 similar fashion to State hypnotism where 540 00:22:14,930 --> 00:22:13,200 the like the individual who's being 541 00:22:16,730 --> 00:22:14,940 focused on kind of 542 00:22:19,490 --> 00:22:16,740 um is trying to acclimate to the crowd 543 00:22:21,169 --> 00:22:19,500 and self-appease everybody 544 00:22:23,510 --> 00:22:21,179 um you know what I mean what you you 545 00:22:26,210 --> 00:22:23,520 kind of subconscious consciously play 546 00:22:28,970 --> 00:22:26,220 along to just fit into a crowd and you 547 00:22:30,830 --> 00:22:28,980 kind of um maybe even unaware that 548 00:22:33,230 --> 00:22:30,840 you're doing it yourself but it's just 549 00:22:36,049 --> 00:22:33,240 kind of a feedback loop yeah exactly 550 00:22:37,970 --> 00:22:36,059 it's it's very highly as expected in 551 00:22:39,470 --> 00:22:37,980 those churches that usually practice it 552 00:22:41,270 --> 00:22:39,480 um 553 00:22:44,390 --> 00:22:41,280 I know in in the tradition that I was 554 00:22:46,130 --> 00:22:44,400 raised in like Word of Faith charismatic 555 00:22:49,810 --> 00:22:46,140 it's an essential part of the theology 556 00:22:52,850 --> 00:22:49,820 so it's an essential part of 557 00:22:55,270 --> 00:22:52,860 your outward expression of your faith is 558 00:22:57,890 --> 00:22:55,280 to be able to have gifts of the Spirit 559 00:23:00,350 --> 00:22:57,900 uh tongues being one of them 560 00:23:02,390 --> 00:23:00,360 so it's and it's tongues usually looked 561 00:23:05,270 --> 00:23:02,400 at as like the highest gift 562 00:23:06,169 --> 00:23:05,280 so to not be able to speak in tongues 563 00:23:08,390 --> 00:23:06,179 would 564 00:23:10,210 --> 00:23:08,400 essentially put you in like a lower part 565 00:23:12,409 --> 00:23:10,220 of the caste system within the church 566 00:23:15,230 --> 00:23:12,419 and the social group within that church 567 00:23:17,690 --> 00:23:15,240 so it's very expected to be able to do 568 00:23:19,810 --> 00:23:17,700 it and 569 00:23:22,789 --> 00:23:19,820 you kind of find that there's almost 570 00:23:24,770 --> 00:23:22,799 dialects of tongues that exist within 571 00:23:27,169 --> 00:23:24,780 certain like church groups interesting 572 00:23:28,610 --> 00:23:27,179 so if you go to like one Church you'll 573 00:23:31,490 --> 00:23:28,620 notice that they all kind of use the 574 00:23:34,250 --> 00:23:31,500 same like syllables and the same um 575 00:23:35,810 --> 00:23:34,260 consonant spaces and stuff like that so 576 00:23:37,190 --> 00:23:35,820 it's really fascinating 577 00:23:39,770 --> 00:23:37,200 um 578 00:23:42,289 --> 00:23:39,780 something that we've locked in on a lot 579 00:23:44,810 --> 00:23:42,299 here as you certainly know is this uh 580 00:23:48,289 --> 00:23:44,820 circumstance of observation versus 581 00:23:52,190 --> 00:23:48,299 interpretation of the observation and 582 00:23:54,110 --> 00:23:52,200 how important the interpretation is to 583 00:23:56,510 --> 00:23:54,120 accepting whether the observation 584 00:23:57,470 --> 00:23:56,520 occurred which you know it doesn't make 585 00:23:59,149 --> 00:23:57,480 sense obviously but that's just 586 00:24:02,090 --> 00:23:59,159 seemingly the way the human brain works 587 00:24:03,710 --> 00:24:02,100 so it's neat that you have a sort of a 588 00:24:05,630 --> 00:24:03,720 specialization in this like and your 589 00:24:08,330 --> 00:24:05,640 focus historically has been religious 590 00:24:11,090 --> 00:24:08,340 studies um you also have the I presume 591 00:24:13,610 --> 00:24:11,100 some interest in UFO studies how do you 592 00:24:16,130 --> 00:24:13,620 see your uh knowledge of this subject 593 00:24:20,149 --> 00:24:16,140 helping you to understand what's going 594 00:24:21,890 --> 00:24:20,159 on in the UFO Community these days 595 00:24:23,270 --> 00:24:21,900 it's a good question 596 00:24:26,630 --> 00:24:23,280 um 597 00:24:29,810 --> 00:24:26,640 belief is a big part of it 598 00:24:34,270 --> 00:24:31,730 growing up in like a fundamentalist 599 00:24:36,770 --> 00:24:34,280 Christian Church like I did 600 00:24:38,210 --> 00:24:36,780 falling out of that 601 00:24:42,289 --> 00:24:38,220 um 602 00:24:44,090 --> 00:24:42,299 goes along with having your entire 603 00:24:46,070 --> 00:24:44,100 world view and narrative creation 604 00:24:47,630 --> 00:24:46,080 mechanism to just be ripped out from 605 00:24:50,390 --> 00:24:47,640 under you 606 00:24:52,549 --> 00:24:50,400 and how for most people they will 607 00:24:53,930 --> 00:24:52,559 do everything in their power to fight 608 00:25:00,649 --> 00:24:53,940 that 609 00:25:03,770 --> 00:25:00,659 and so when presented with 610 00:25:05,690 --> 00:25:03,780 contrary information that contradicts 611 00:25:10,549 --> 00:25:05,700 their belief system 612 00:25:12,049 --> 00:25:10,559 they usually Resort in anger and denial 613 00:25:13,909 --> 00:25:12,059 and so that's kind of what brought me to 614 00:25:15,649 --> 00:25:13,919 the UFO 615 00:25:17,630 --> 00:25:15,659 Topic at hand I mean I've always kind of 616 00:25:20,570 --> 00:25:17,640 been interested in space and 617 00:25:23,450 --> 00:25:20,580 and the idea of extraterrestrials 618 00:25:25,669 --> 00:25:23,460 and then the whole 2017 flap I kind of 619 00:25:28,430 --> 00:25:25,679 saw the New York Times article it's like 620 00:25:30,710 --> 00:25:28,440 this is kind of interesting 621 00:25:33,549 --> 00:25:30,720 um so started following it got on the 622 00:25:36,289 --> 00:25:33,559 UFO Twitter probably about 623 00:25:39,710 --> 00:25:36,299 2019 to our 2020 when they released the 624 00:25:45,590 --> 00:25:42,169 quickly saw through 625 00:25:46,490 --> 00:25:45,600 you know Elizondo stuff 626 00:25:48,289 --> 00:25:46,500 um 627 00:25:49,909 --> 00:25:48,299 he reminded me a lot of a lot of 628 00:25:51,250 --> 00:25:49,919 religious leaders that I was around just 629 00:25:53,230 --> 00:25:51,260 a lot of the same 630 00:25:55,970 --> 00:25:53,240 vernacularly used 631 00:25:59,630 --> 00:25:55,980 and so then I got very fascinated in 632 00:26:00,890 --> 00:25:59,640 watching what happened within that space 633 00:26:02,810 --> 00:26:00,900 um 634 00:26:04,430 --> 00:26:02,820 After People kind of started attacking 635 00:26:05,930 --> 00:26:04,440 Lou and started attacking the whole 636 00:26:08,210 --> 00:26:05,940 narrative 637 00:26:10,490 --> 00:26:08,220 that's where I got interested in how his 638 00:26:11,870 --> 00:26:10,500 people's belief systems gonna uphold 639 00:26:13,490 --> 00:26:11,880 here how are they going to fight this 640 00:26:15,370 --> 00:26:13,500 and so that's kind of what I've been 641 00:26:18,470 --> 00:26:15,380 watching from afar 642 00:26:20,769 --> 00:26:18,480 I was I was going to ask you what your 643 00:26:25,029 --> 00:26:20,779 thoughts are and how this community 644 00:26:29,870 --> 00:26:25,039 is or represents like an emergent 645 00:26:34,610 --> 00:26:32,630 um I would say that it was 646 00:26:37,970 --> 00:26:34,620 its own religion 647 00:26:41,090 --> 00:26:37,980 um I would say UFO Twitter itself 648 00:26:43,190 --> 00:26:41,100 is its own uh independent religion 649 00:26:47,149 --> 00:26:43,200 kind of existed within this 650 00:26:49,730 --> 00:26:47,159 grouping of uh UFO related religions 651 00:26:54,529 --> 00:26:51,710 there seemed to be such a quick 652 00:26:55,930 --> 00:26:54,539 hierarchy built and personalities and 653 00:27:00,549 --> 00:26:55,940 leaders 654 00:27:06,350 --> 00:27:03,169 establishing a beliefs and uh like a 655 00:27:08,090 --> 00:27:06,360 Mythos and a cultists and all these 656 00:27:10,370 --> 00:27:08,100 things that kind of essentialize what a 657 00:27:12,409 --> 00:27:10,380 new religious movement is I kind of just 658 00:27:14,630 --> 00:27:12,419 see in all of the boxes just slow to get 659 00:27:16,789 --> 00:27:14,640 checked off as as kind of the attacks 660 00:27:21,289 --> 00:27:16,799 rolled in it solidified itself as a 661 00:27:25,850 --> 00:27:23,210 so you think the the attacks themselves 662 00:27:27,610 --> 00:27:25,860 are kind of an integral part of um 663 00:27:32,450 --> 00:27:27,620 forming that religion 664 00:27:34,250 --> 00:27:32,460 solidifying it yeah I gave 665 00:27:35,570 --> 00:27:34,260 religious groups usually Thrive 666 00:27:38,090 --> 00:27:35,580 especially 667 00:27:39,769 --> 00:27:38,100 Cults new religious movements that 668 00:27:41,810 --> 00:27:39,779 thrive off of attention with greater 669 00:27:43,370 --> 00:27:41,820 Society yeah that's kind of what bonds 670 00:27:45,350 --> 00:27:43,380 them together 671 00:27:49,549 --> 00:27:45,360 um the higher the tension the higher the 672 00:27:51,169 --> 00:27:49,559 cohesion within that group and so as 673 00:27:53,870 --> 00:27:51,179 I think as you've had personalities like 674 00:27:55,070 --> 00:27:53,880 Green Street flip and start attacking 675 00:27:56,029 --> 00:27:55,080 the narrative that he kind of helped 676 00:27:57,830 --> 00:27:56,039 build 677 00:28:03,110 --> 00:27:57,840 that was kind of the taking of the 678 00:28:04,130 --> 00:28:03,120 Domino as as to the cohesion and the 679 00:28:05,930 --> 00:28:04,140 um 680 00:28:10,669 --> 00:28:05,940 kind of centralizing around a certain 681 00:28:15,110 --> 00:28:13,549 well the I think the Calvin photo was a 682 00:28:17,690 --> 00:28:15,120 good example of that because we 683 00:28:20,149 --> 00:28:17,700 immediately uh saw the Community start 684 00:28:22,789 --> 00:28:20,159 to fight about what was the most likely 685 00:28:25,789 --> 00:28:22,799 explanation and it's just the synopsis 686 00:28:28,610 --> 00:28:25,799 of the whole thing in a nutshell right 687 00:28:31,130 --> 00:28:28,620 that everybody like even within the 688 00:28:33,049 --> 00:28:31,140 community can't agree on what it is that 689 00:28:34,010 --> 00:28:33,059 they believe in so it's like what what 690 00:28:36,049 --> 00:28:34,020 is what's holding this community 691 00:28:38,390 --> 00:28:36,059 together and it does make sense to me 692 00:28:41,330 --> 00:28:38,400 that some degree of that is the external 693 00:28:43,730 --> 00:28:41,340 tension pushing all of these sort of 694 00:28:47,409 --> 00:28:43,740 Divergent beliefs together into this 695 00:28:50,630 --> 00:28:47,419 nucleus that we're sort of talking about 696 00:28:52,669 --> 00:28:50,640 yep yep 697 00:28:54,950 --> 00:28:52,679 excellent cool 698 00:28:56,570 --> 00:28:54,960 well avocado thank you so much for 699 00:28:58,370 --> 00:28:56,580 dropping

rolling through the 711 00:29:24,710 --> 00:29:23,520 years tomorrow no let's keep rolling 712 00:29:26,269 --> 00:29:24,720 through because we're already at the 713 00:29:27,110 --> 00:29:26,279 bottom of the hour 714 00:29:29,630 --> 00:29:27,120 um 715 00:29:31,850 --> 00:29:29,640 so there's you know we have this kind of 716 00:29:33,830 --> 00:29:31,860 scattershot of different events we have 717 00:29:35,570 --> 00:29:33,840 the Brazilian UFO hearings 718 00:29:37,549 --> 00:29:35,580 um I only I don't know too much about 719 00:29:39,409 --> 00:29:37,559 that um I don't think anything was ever 720 00:29:41,750 --> 00:29:39,419 actually translated or transcribed into 721 00:29:43,970 --> 00:29:41,760 English but it was basically I think a 722 00:29:46,669 --> 00:29:43,980 75th Anniversary after the quote unquote 723 00:29:47,690 --> 00:29:46,679 night of the UFOs in Brazil and it 724 00:29:50,870 --> 00:29:47,700 prompted 725 00:29:54,950 --> 00:29:50,880 um you know I use the term hearings but 726 00:29:56,750 --> 00:29:54,960 it was more I think a opportunity for 727 00:29:59,570 --> 00:29:56,760 um like the septuagenarians and 728 00:30:02,330 --> 00:29:59,580 octogenarians who saw any of this to 729 00:30:04,970 --> 00:30:02,340 kind of talk about it and share it 730 00:30:06,409 --> 00:30:04,980 um and they just made kind of Social and 731 00:30:08,210 --> 00:30:06,419 cultural space 732 00:30:09,769 --> 00:30:08,220 um I think in the U.S right because 733 00:30:11,750 --> 00:30:09,779 we're watching everything unfold on our 734 00:30:14,570 --> 00:30:11,760 side I think people tended to transpose 735 00:30:16,669 --> 00:30:14,580 what's going on here into Brazil but the 736 00:30:19,730 --> 00:30:16,679 reality is it just seems kind of like a 737 00:30:22,430 --> 00:30:19,740 commemorative kind of goofy cultural 738 00:30:23,990 --> 00:30:22,440 thing rather than an actual inquiry 739 00:30:26,630 --> 00:30:24,000 interesting yeah I didn't really follow 740 00:30:30,169 --> 00:30:26,640 it when it came out I think it 741 00:30:32,210 --> 00:30:30,179 just popped up in past like like all the 742 00:30:35,630 --> 00:30:32,220 uh probably all the other things on the 743 00:30:37,549 --> 00:30:35,640 list did too but yes kind of stuck 744 00:30:40,310 --> 00:30:37,559 around for about a week and then we all 745 00:30:42,409 --> 00:30:40,320 moved on right and it's it's like a lot 746 00:30:44,389 --> 00:30:42,419 of things on this where there there 747 00:30:45,889 --> 00:30:44,399 isn't a ton of a substance or the 748 00:30:48,590 --> 00:30:45,899 substance that is there that could be 749 00:30:51,649 --> 00:30:48,600 very interesting from a particular lens 750 00:30:55,010 --> 00:30:51,659 is made into something that's not by the 751 00:30:56,330 --> 00:30:55,020 way it's described so like it's uh like 752 00:30:59,389 --> 00:30:56,340 on Reddit somebody will post to be like 753 00:31:01,549 --> 00:30:59,399 oh Brazilian hearings uh witness says 754 00:31:02,810 --> 00:31:01,559 they see alien or whatever so it's like 755 00:31:04,669 --> 00:31:02,820 oh this came out in a hearing and then 756 00:31:06,590 --> 00:31:04,679 you look it up and it says Leah said 757 00:31:08,990 --> 00:31:06,600 it's uh somebody sort of like just 758 00:31:11,810 --> 00:31:09,000 speaking in front of uh their Congress 759 00:31:13,430 --> 00:31:11,820 and that's a valid activity but it does 760 00:31:15,830 --> 00:31:13,440 cause that disconnect when you see that 761 00:31:18,769 --> 00:31:15,840 it's being falsely uh represented to 762 00:31:22,970 --> 00:31:21,049 what else happened 763 00:31:24,649 --> 00:31:22,980 yeah well that reminds me of the mufon 764 00:31:26,870 --> 00:31:24,659 thing too because it's kind of similar 765 00:31:31,190 --> 00:31:26,880 where it's like a false representation 766 00:31:35,090 --> 00:31:31,200 uh with the story from the Sun uh 767 00:31:37,430 --> 00:31:35,100 in yeah April right and they yeah 768 00:31:39,470 --> 00:31:37,440 they got a pile of documents that they 769 00:31:41,810 --> 00:31:39,480 forwarded from the US government and 770 00:31:44,570 --> 00:31:41,820 within that pile of documents there was 771 00:31:46,310 --> 00:31:44,580 a mufon report and then the Sun 772 00:31:48,529 --> 00:31:46,320 newspaper ran with the contents of the 773 00:31:50,750 --> 00:31:48,539 mufon report as though it was a U.S 774 00:31:53,090 --> 00:31:50,760 government document report yeah Tucker 775 00:31:56,269 --> 00:31:53,100 Carlson covered this as well 776 00:31:58,190 --> 00:31:56,279 um UFOs harming individuals by their 777 00:32:00,669 --> 00:31:58,200 proximity like people coming away from 778 00:32:04,130 --> 00:32:00,679 close encounters with otherworldly craft 779 00:32:06,470 --> 00:32:04,140 being injured was kind of the spin on 780 00:32:09,049 --> 00:32:06,480 this right that was kind of the headline 781 00:32:10,970 --> 00:32:09,059 about this but um when you go through 782 00:32:13,669 --> 00:32:10,980 and look at a lot of those documents 783 00:32:16,010 --> 00:32:13,679 these were these cases were pulled from 784 00:32:18,110 --> 00:32:16,020 like you said mufon studies 785 00:32:19,730 --> 00:32:18,120 um The National Enquirer 786 00:32:22,190 --> 00:32:19,740 uh 787 00:32:26,269 --> 00:32:22,200 like all sorts of different sources in 788 00:32:28,370 --> 00:32:26,279 in in not one of these was their um like 789 00:32:30,590 --> 00:32:28,380 a causal link determined between 790 00:32:32,630 --> 00:32:30,600 whatever this person's experience was 791 00:32:34,970 --> 00:32:32,640 and any type of medical issues they have 792 00:32:37,010 --> 00:32:34,980 right that was kind of the Crux of the 793 00:32:38,570 --> 00:32:37,020 entire thing 794 00:32:40,490 --> 00:32:38,580 is that correct am I remembering the 795 00:32:43,190 --> 00:32:40,500 same event yeah yeah I believe the 796 00:32:45,590 --> 00:32:43,200 medical uh thing was what they ran with 797 00:32:48,710 --> 00:32:45,600 and that's what led to a lot of these uh 798 00:32:51,590 --> 00:32:48,720 interviews with people like Gary Nolan 799 00:32:55,370 --> 00:32:51,600 who was going out and talking about 800 00:32:58,010 --> 00:32:55,380 how he speculates that what seems to be 801 00:33:00,350 --> 00:32:58,020 brain damage is maybe actually a change 802 00:33:03,950 --> 00:33:00,360 from like genetics and that some people 803 00:33:05,990 --> 00:33:03,960 have a receiver in their head to pick up 804 00:33:08,810 --> 00:33:06,000 signals from the you know Universal 805 00:33:11,269 --> 00:33:08,820 inherent intelligence or whatever uh so 806 00:33:14,269 --> 00:33:11,279 so the other problematic things coming 807 00:33:19,190 --> 00:33:14,279 out of that um Louise like you've um 808 00:33:23,950 --> 00:33:19,200 really uh like focused in on these sort 809 00:33:26,990 --> 00:33:23,960 of claims that are close to historically 810 00:33:30,230 --> 00:33:27,000 problematic philosophies kind of like 811 00:33:31,970 --> 00:33:30,240 Eugenics almost when a doctor of like 812 00:33:33,110 --> 00:33:31,980 biology is saying that he thinks that 813 00:33:35,269 --> 00:33:33,120 some people have a genetic 814 00:33:38,149 --> 00:33:35,279 predisposition to speak to the universal 815 00:33:41,090 --> 00:33:38,159 intelligence uh would that not be a uh 816 00:33:43,549 --> 00:33:41,100 you know a superior type of homo 817 00:33:45,830 --> 00:33:43,559 Superior you know like it's problematic 818 00:33:48,110 --> 00:33:45,840 yeah yeah I think so I mean it would be 819 00:33:50,690 --> 00:33:48,120 one thing if they could really provide 820 00:33:53,029 --> 00:33:50,700 evidence for what they're saying yeah it 821 00:33:54,350 --> 00:33:53,039 was like look at my credentials this is 822 00:33:56,389 --> 00:33:54,360 interesting we don't know what all of 823 00:33:57,649 --> 00:33:56,399 DNA does as if that's something 824 00:33:58,970 --> 00:33:57,659 mysterious 825 00:34:00,769 --> 00:33:58,980 and um 826 00:34:02,389 --> 00:34:00,779 they try to weave these stories but 827 00:34:04,730 --> 00:34:02,399 ultimately 828 00:34:05,990 --> 00:34:04,740 what is it based on right and also the 829 00:34:07,490 --> 00:34:06,000 other the other interesting thing is 830 00:34:09,169 --> 00:34:07,500 like how does it or why does it gain 831 00:34:11,690 --> 00:34:09,179 traction 832 00:34:15,530 --> 00:34:11,700 in the absence of evidence uh and what 833 00:34:18,829 --> 00:34:15,540 demographic is most receptive to that 834 00:34:21,290 --> 00:34:18,839 so that's also problematic like do you 835 00:34:22,310 --> 00:34:21,300 have thoughts on that 836 00:34:36,169 --> 00:34:22,320 um 837 00:34:38,210 --> 00:34:36,179 Skinwalker Ranch 838 00:34:40,430 --> 00:34:38,220 uh rural White 839 00:34:42,230 --> 00:34:40,440 conservative 840 00:34:43,849 --> 00:34:42,240 it's going to say the uh the same 841 00:34:48,169 --> 00:34:43,859 demographic that watches things like Fox 842 00:34:50,149 --> 00:34:48,179 News yeah which is itself a carrier of a 843 00:34:53,149 --> 00:34:50,159 lot of um pseudoscientific stuff and 844 00:34:57,050 --> 00:34:53,159 also Tucker Carlson also makes a big hey 845 00:34:59,150 --> 00:34:57,060 about UFOs these days as well 846 00:35:01,010 --> 00:34:59,160 um interesting for reasons which are 847 00:35:02,570 --> 00:35:01,020 probably to do with what color veto has 848 00:35:04,430 --> 00:35:02,580 alluded to 849 00:35:07,750 --> 00:35:04,440 uh Jason kohlovied has written about 850 00:35:10,250 --> 00:35:07,760 sort of the right wing grifting of UFOs 851 00:35:11,690 --> 00:35:10,260 including on Fox 852 00:35:13,910 --> 00:35:11,700 as a way of kind of saying that the 853 00:35:15,829 --> 00:35:13,920 government is not looking after us like 854 00:35:17,810 --> 00:35:15,839 in the sky and the government's just 855 00:35:19,130 --> 00:35:17,820 sort of letting it happen which is like 856 00:35:21,170 --> 00:35:19,140 an analog of 857 00:35:22,849 --> 00:35:21,180 illegal immigrants are coming in and 858 00:35:24,230 --> 00:35:22,859 we're not letting them well we're not 859 00:35:25,670 --> 00:35:24,240 doing anything about it it's always like 860 00:35:28,310 --> 00:35:25,680 a threat narrative 861 00:35:30,530 --> 00:35:28,320 right the criminal illegal aliens yeah 862 00:35:32,030 --> 00:35:30,540 that's right we granted them that's like 863 00:35:34,730 --> 00:35:32,040 George warwell's style stuff the 864 00:35:37,609 --> 00:35:34,740 language does matter yeah but that's a 865 00:35:40,550 --> 00:35:37,619 really interesting connection right 866 00:35:42,770 --> 00:35:40,560 so we have uh talisma 867 00:35:45,530 --> 00:35:42,780 um waiting in the green room also known 868 00:35:47,450 --> 00:35:45,540 as the Earth one of our very 869 00:35:50,569 --> 00:35:47,460 um Regular audience members I'm gonna 870 00:35:52,430 --> 00:35:50,579 bring her right on stream 871 00:35:56,210 --> 00:35:52,440 hey welcome

could you just uh let everybody know 878 00:36:15,890 --> 00:36:13,500 like you have a new podcast that you're 879 00:36:17,990 --> 00:36:15,900 launching uh right uh could you talk 880 00:36:20,569 --> 00:36:18,000 about that a little bit 881 00:36:23,030 --> 00:36:20,579 um yeah it's called the Earth that's uh 882 00:36:25,670 --> 00:36:23,040 also my channel name uh I know that 883 00:36:28,490 --> 00:36:25,680 causes some confusion I'm not actually 884 00:36:32,510 --> 00:36:28,500 the Earth well I mean 885 00:36:33,530 --> 00:36:32,520 technically we all are the earth I guess 886 00:36:36,770 --> 00:36:33,540 um 887 00:36:38,030 --> 00:36:36,780 and uh yeah it's a podcast that uh it's 888 00:36:42,230 --> 00:36:38,040 basically 889 00:36:45,770 --> 00:36:42,240 um it's it's an act of anthropomancy 890 00:36:48,470 --> 00:36:45,780 so it's uh divination 891 00:36:54,950 --> 00:36:51,650 of communicating with humans 892 00:36:57,589 --> 00:36:54,960 to to kind of create uh to reinforce the 893 00:37:02,390 --> 00:36:57,599 enchantment that exists in the world 894 00:37:04,250 --> 00:37:02,400 um uh Brian Estes was on a a few weeks 895 00:37:06,010 --> 00:37:04,260 ago is that his name am I getting the 896 00:37:08,810 --> 00:37:06,020 name right 897 00:37:12,109 --> 00:37:08,820 oh sentence on Art yep yeah brand 898 00:37:14,750 --> 00:37:12,119 centers transposing letters there but he 899 00:37:17,329 --> 00:37:14,760 was talking about uh poesis I believe or 900 00:37:19,730 --> 00:37:17,339 someone in the chat was and it it's kind 901 00:37:23,210 --> 00:37:19,740 of like that so it's basically an it's 902 00:37:25,310 --> 00:37:23,220 it's a performance of magic uh in the 903 00:37:29,390 --> 00:37:25,320 form of Internet content 904 00:37:32,329 --> 00:37:29,400 and I'm co-opting internet content to to 905 00:37:36,050 --> 00:37:32,339 basically and re-enchant the world to to 906 00:37:38,930 --> 00:37:36,060 recreate re-summon the realm of fiery 907 00:37:42,050 --> 00:37:38,940 in the world today and and to end the 908 00:37:44,870 --> 00:37:42,060 human delusion of disenchantment 909 00:37:47,690 --> 00:37:44,880 and I'm doing that through 910 00:37:50,210 --> 00:37:47,700 science communication 911 00:37:51,710 --> 00:37:50,220 I'm communicating about science but 912 00:37:52,849 --> 00:37:51,720 specifically the science of the 913 00:37:56,569 --> 00:37:52,859 Paranormal 914 00:37:57,829 --> 00:37:56,579 interesting very cool is is this 915 00:37:59,990 --> 00:37:57,839 available now 916 00:38:01,190 --> 00:38:00,000 uh yeah absolutely 917 00:38:03,170 --> 00:38:01,200 um 918 00:38:04,730 --> 00:38:03,180 you can go to YouTube I haven't I 919 00:38:07,910 --> 00:38:04,740 haven't actually uploaded the latest 920 00:38:11,569 --> 00:38:07,920 episode to YouTube but I also have 921 00:38:15,829 --> 00:38:11,579 um you can go to anchor.fm slash 922 00:38:20,030 --> 00:38:17,569 yeah and I thought it was a neat uh 923 00:38:22,670 --> 00:38:20,040 project and I liked your philosophy that 924 00:38:25,790 --> 00:38:22,680 you described uh it's being 925 00:38:28,670 --> 00:38:25,800 um considerate and non-judgmental and 926 00:38:30,430 --> 00:38:28,680 engaging with the observations and I 927 00:38:32,630 --> 00:38:30,440 thought it was pretty neat you uh 928 00:38:35,510 --> 00:38:32,640 interviewed or talked side conversations 929 00:38:37,550 --> 00:38:35,520 with a person who uh sees something in 930 00:38:39,109 --> 00:38:37,560 the atmosphere and it's not clear what 931 00:38:41,690 --> 00:38:39,119 it is but then you talk to them about 932 00:38:43,849 --> 00:38:41,700 like how that experience affects their 933 00:38:46,670 --> 00:38:43,859 personality and things like that and 934 00:38:49,130 --> 00:38:46,680 then you uh interviewed me and uh we're 935 00:38:51,530 --> 00:38:49,140 talking about like that what I interpret 936 00:38:53,150 --> 00:38:51,540 as Hypno Palm pick hallucinations and 937 00:38:55,970 --> 00:38:53,160 you're just sticking to the observations 938 00:38:58,130 --> 00:38:55,980 and sort of like seeing how these things 939 00:39:00,589 --> 00:38:58,140 uh cause people to interact with the 940 00:39:02,510 --> 00:39:00,599 world has structure identity around it 941 00:39:04,430 --> 00:39:02,520 um I appreciate that uh focus on the 942 00:39:07,250 --> 00:39:04,440 observation because something that we 943 00:39:09,530 --> 00:39:07,260 focus on so many times is that it there 944 00:39:11,089 --> 00:39:09,540 is a huge issue right now where the 945 00:39:13,190 --> 00:39:11,099 interpretation of what's being observed 946 00:39:15,230 --> 00:39:13,200 affects people's ability to accept that 947 00:39:16,790 --> 00:39:15,240 an observation has been made 948 00:39:21,050 --> 00:39:16,800 to be here 949 00:39:26,510 --> 00:39:23,210 right now it's an interesting time in 950 00:39:28,730 --> 00:39:26,520 human history because I think that the 951 00:39:30,710 --> 00:39:28,740 the fringes of science you know the 952 00:39:32,450 --> 00:39:30,720 frontiers of science people want to 953 00:39:34,069 --> 00:39:32,460 think that the frontiers of science are 954 00:39:36,109 --> 00:39:34,079 you know like 955 00:39:38,870 --> 00:39:36,119 um you know at the bottom of the ocean 956 00:39:41,150 --> 00:39:38,880 or in deep space and I mean those are 957 00:39:44,210 --> 00:39:41,160 Frontiers in science but the real 958 00:39:46,609 --> 00:39:44,220 Frontier in science is really humans and 959 00:39:49,310 --> 00:39:46,619 Human Experience and and things like 960 00:39:52,069 --> 00:39:49,320 human belief and any any form of 961 00:39:54,770 --> 00:39:52,079 anthropology I think those are really 962 00:39:55,910 --> 00:39:54,780 the the most Cutting Edge forms of 963 00:39:57,470 --> 00:39:55,920 science 964 00:40:00,829 --> 00:39:57,480 because 965 00:40:03,349 --> 00:40:00,839 of how incredibly difficult and how many 966 00:40:07,970 --> 00:40:03,359 methodological problems arise from that 967 00:40:12,290 --> 00:40:07,980 and I think I think UFOs are are very 968 00:40:14,930 --> 00:40:12,300 tied up in that because so many times 969 00:40:17,890 --> 00:40:14,940 that people have these experiences they 970 00:40:20,450 --> 00:40:17,900 they correlate them with UFOs 971 00:40:23,990 --> 00:40:20,460 and uh 972 00:40:25,130 --> 00:40:24,000 yeah so uh sorry I totally just lost my 973 00:40:26,349 --> 00:40:25,140 train of thought 974 00:40:30,710 --> 00:40:26,359 um 975 00:40:32,210 --> 00:40:30,720 say that this is the question I keep 976 00:40:34,430 --> 00:40:32,220 coming back to 977 00:40:37,010 --> 00:40:34,440 um I speak with and correspond with a 978 00:40:38,569 --> 00:40:37,020 number of experiencers and I'm always so 979 00:40:40,970 --> 00:40:38,579 curious about how they made the 980 00:40:43,010 --> 00:40:40,980 connection between their experience and 981 00:40:43,910 --> 00:40:43,020 ufology 982 00:40:47,210 --> 00:40:43,920 um 983 00:40:50,810 --> 00:40:47,220 like how what was kind of the cultural 984 00:40:52,730 --> 00:40:50,820 framing or the conversation or the movie 985 00:40:54,589 --> 00:40:52,740 or whatever that they saw or engaged 986 00:40:57,770 --> 00:40:54,599 with that made them connect what 987 00:40:58,730 --> 00:40:57,780 happened to them with ufology and I'm I 988 00:41:01,250 --> 00:40:58,740 also 989 00:41:03,589 --> 00:41:01,260 um totally agree I you know Nick has 990 00:41:05,210 --> 00:41:03,599 brought the point up frequently about 991 00:41:07,970 --> 00:41:05,220 how 992 00:41:10,970 --> 00:41:07,980 the technology that people report around 993 00:41:13,069 --> 00:41:10,980 UFOs is only slightly ahead of the 994 00:41:16,010 --> 00:41:13,079 technology that we currently have right 995 00:41:17,390 --> 00:41:16,020 so airships flying saucers 996 00:41:19,270 --> 00:41:17,400 um sort of 997 00:41:22,370 --> 00:41:19,280 um and on and on and I think 998 00:41:25,310 --> 00:41:22,380 increasingly as we see the 999 00:41:27,950 --> 00:41:25,320 popular conversations in this subject 1000 00:41:31,310 --> 00:41:27,960 start to orient more around questions of 1001 00:41:32,329 --> 00:41:31,320 Consciousness and PSY like that speaks 1002 00:41:34,670 --> 00:41:32,339 to 1003 00:41:36,770 --> 00:41:34,680 um tulisma exactly like what you said 1004 00:41:39,170 --> 00:41:36,780 about 1005 00:41:40,970 --> 00:41:39,180 um the human mind being kind of this or 1006 00:41:43,130 --> 00:41:40,980 The Human Experience being this kind of 1007 00:41:45,950 --> 00:41:43,140 Frontier for Science and study and 1008 00:41:47,930 --> 00:41:45,960 exploration now uh Beyond then or 1009 00:41:49,910 --> 00:41:47,940 further Beyond than what we see and just 1010 00:41:51,890 --> 00:41:49,920 the material exploration of our world 1011 00:41:55,190 --> 00:41:51,900 and even our oceans 1012 00:41:56,990 --> 00:41:55,200 yeah um and you know I do also on the 1013 00:41:59,210 --> 00:41:57,000 other hand though I do think that the 1014 00:42:02,990 --> 00:41:59,220 physical study of UAP and the physical 1015 00:42:05,030 --> 00:42:03,000 study of of preternatural phenomena are 1016 00:42:09,170 --> 00:42:05,040 is very important and 1017 00:42:11,930 --> 00:42:09,180 you know for me I feel that uh um I was 1018 00:42:13,730 --> 00:42:11,940 really influenced by Jenny Randalls who 1019 00:42:16,790 --> 00:42:13,740 uh you know she was the head of the 1020 00:42:18,470 --> 00:42:16,800 British UFO uh research Agency for a 1021 00:42:20,750 --> 00:42:18,480 really long time she published a lot of 1022 00:42:23,089 --> 00:42:20,760 very popular paper box 1023 00:42:27,349 --> 00:42:23,099 um and she 1024 00:42:29,810 --> 00:42:27,359 um she had both like uh you know uh 1025 00:42:32,150 --> 00:42:29,820 experiences that she would regard as 1026 00:42:34,310 --> 00:42:32,160 apparitional or hallucinatory and she 1027 00:42:38,150 --> 00:42:34,320 also had experiences that she described 1028 00:42:40,849 --> 00:42:38,160 as physical phenomena as UAP and she 1029 00:42:42,650 --> 00:42:40,859 felt that she one could with enough 1030 00:42:44,810 --> 00:42:42,660 information distinguish between those 1031 00:42:46,970 --> 00:42:44,820 but she also thought that there might be 1032 00:42:50,990 --> 00:42:46,980 a third category of experience that 1033 00:42:53,510 --> 00:42:51,000 subjectivity and objectivity actually uh 1034 00:42:56,210 --> 00:42:53,520 occur along a spectrum right so that 1035 00:42:58,490 --> 00:42:56,220 it's nothing is purely objective nothing 1036 00:43:01,309 --> 00:42:58,500 is purely subjective we have these 1037 00:43:03,410 --> 00:43:01,319 models being created in our minds and 1038 00:43:06,109 --> 00:43:03,420 and also you know Collective models and 1039 00:43:07,849 --> 00:43:06,119 things like that and so I think that 1040 00:43:10,490 --> 00:43:07,859 that you know 1041 00:43:12,890 --> 00:43:10,500 there's a possibility that that they're 1042 00:43:15,770 --> 00:43:12,900 truly exotic 1043 00:43:17,930 --> 00:43:15,780 phenomena in Earth's atmosphere 1044 00:43:21,710 --> 00:43:17,940 um and but also that there could be 1045 00:43:24,530 --> 00:43:21,720 systems in nature in in the ecosystem 1046 00:43:27,530 --> 00:43:24,540 you know in microbiomes and things like 1047 00:43:30,230 --> 00:43:27,540 that interacting with the human body 1048 00:43:32,270 --> 00:43:30,240 that we don't know about 1049 00:43:33,050 --> 00:43:32,280 mm-hmm that's 1050 00:43:35,510 --> 00:43:33,060 um 1051 00:43:37,450 --> 00:43:35,520 that's Bernardo costrips framing as well 1052 00:43:40,309 --> 00:43:37,460 this sort of 1053 00:43:43,069 --> 00:43:40,319 objectivity versus subjectivity being a 1054 00:43:45,230 --> 00:43:43,079 spectrum and I mean when sentis was only 1055 00:43:47,030 --> 00:43:45,240 talked a lot about philology and how 1056 00:43:49,069 --> 00:43:47,040 language and historical reporting 1057 00:43:51,050 --> 00:43:49,079 differs from how we do it now right how 1058 00:43:54,589 --> 00:43:51,060 we kind of draw clear demarcations 1059 00:43:56,930 --> 00:43:54,599 between fact and fiction in 2022 but 1060 00:43:58,490 --> 00:43:56,940 this was not the standard convention for 1061 00:44:01,490 --> 00:43:58,500 most of human history 1062 00:44:06,230 --> 00:44:04,490 um yeah and uh uh I brought this up in 1063 00:44:08,990 --> 00:44:06,240 the comments before of um in 1064 00:44:09,710 --> 00:44:09,000 anthropology there are these two major 1065 00:44:14,809 --> 00:44:09,720 um 1066 00:44:16,790 --> 00:44:14,819 specific uh methods but just very broad 1067 00:44:20,089 --> 00:44:16,800 approaches one being emic and the other 1068 00:44:21,530 --> 00:44:20,099 being epic and um I always confuse these 1069 00:44:23,630 --> 00:44:21,540 because they're only one letter apart 1070 00:44:25,250 --> 00:44:23,640 but basically emik I believe is the one 1071 00:44:28,609 --> 00:44:25,260 that it's it's basically you're studying 1072 00:44:30,530 --> 00:44:28,619 from the inside of a culture and the 1073 00:44:33,349 --> 00:44:30,540 attic you're studying from the outside 1074 00:44:35,870 --> 00:44:33,359 of the culture basically neither of 1075 00:44:39,170 --> 00:44:35,880 these is purely objective or subjective 1076 00:44:40,970 --> 00:44:39,180 but in order to understand a person's 1077 00:44:43,309 --> 00:44:40,980 experience one also has to understand 1078 00:44:45,770 --> 00:44:43,319 like you know what are the internal 1079 00:44:47,990 --> 00:44:45,780 workings the internal symbiologies of 1080 00:44:50,809 --> 00:44:48,000 that person's life 1081 00:44:53,630 --> 00:44:50,819 um as you know and also having that 1082 00:44:57,230 --> 00:44:53,640 Outsider perspective is also 1083 00:44:59,030 --> 00:44:57,240 um really important as well I was going 1084 00:45:01,809 --> 00:44:59,040 somewhere with that and I totally just 1085 00:45:06,530 --> 00:45:04,550 well maybe this is a good time to uh 1086 00:45:09,050 --> 00:45:06,540 move on to the next one then since we're 1087 00:45:11,030 --> 00:45:09,060 uh running out of time all right well 1088 00:45:13,430 -->

1094 00:45:31,390 --> 00:45:26,819 um uh and it's available on a ton of 1095 00:45:35,510 --> 00:45:34,130 thanks so much for jumping in yeah I'll 1096 00:45:38,630 --> 00:45:35,520 get that added to

00:45:43,560 feel like I want to jump in a little bit 1100 00:45:47,150 --> 00:45:45,720 to the culture side of things if we're 1101 00:45:49,609 --> 00:45:47,160 uh open to that 1102 00:45:50,690 --> 00:45:49,619 okay yeah I think it's again where do 1103 00:45:54,950 --> 00:45:50,700 you want to start 1104 00:45:57,050 --> 00:45:54,960 um 1105 00:46:00,710 --> 00:45:57,060 should we start uh based on the timeline 1106 00:46:03,290 --> 00:46:00,720 through the year yeah yeah okay sure 1107 00:46:06,829 --> 00:46:03,300 so what was the earliest kind of uh 1108 00:46:09,109 --> 00:46:06,839 cultural UFO Twitter Milestone that we 1109 00:46:12,410 --> 00:46:09,119 we experienced this past year 1110 00:46:14,089 --> 00:46:12,420 close up here for me 1111 00:46:17,930 --> 00:46:14,099 um so I wasn't visible in the community 1112 00:46:20,390 --> 00:46:17,940 before like June or July but the first 1113 00:46:25,010 --> 00:46:20,400 episode of UCR that I heard was the one 1114 00:46:26,930 --> 00:46:25,020 the infamous one with Lou Elizondo 1115 00:46:30,650 --> 00:46:26,940 um and I heard it while I was driving 1116 00:46:33,170 --> 00:46:30,660 across the country and 1117 00:46:35,690 --> 00:46:33,180 um that was kind of what got me sucked 1118 00:46:37,730 --> 00:46:35,700 into the existing uh UFO Community 1119 00:46:39,829 --> 00:46:37,740 between this and Twitter spaces and 1120 00:46:41,990 --> 00:46:39,839 having way too much free time no was 1121 00:46:43,750 --> 00:46:42,000 that the discussion about Lou Elizondo 1122 00:46:46,970 --> 00:46:43,760 having sock puppet accounts on Twitter 1123 00:46:49,069 --> 00:46:46,980 yes and you should have seen me because 1124 00:46:51,890 --> 00:46:49,079 I'd be at like a rest stop on my drive 1125 00:46:54,230 --> 00:46:51,900 like looking up who is Lou Elizondo 1126 00:46:55,790 --> 00:46:54,240 who's this guy Lou Jimenez why are they 1127 00:46:57,589 --> 00:46:55,800 talking about you know Stephen Green 1128 00:47:00,950 --> 00:46:57,599 Street I didn't know any of these people 1129 00:47:04,309 --> 00:47:00,960 my My Mind and Spirit was as pure as the 1130 00:47:06,470 --> 00:47:04,319 driven snow like yeah and it's like it's 1131 00:47:08,390 --> 00:47:06,480 such a weird thing because if you just 1132 00:47:10,730 --> 00:47:08,400 step into it from nowhere it's like 1133 00:47:12,890 --> 00:47:10,740 you'd think oh this is the former 1134 00:47:14,030 --> 00:47:12,900 director of like a major Pentagon 1135 00:47:16,550 --> 00:47:14,040 program I know that's not verified 1136 00:47:18,890 --> 00:47:16,560 obviously but that's what you think and 1137 00:47:21,410 --> 00:47:18,900 then he's like on there like just kind 1138 00:47:23,089 --> 00:47:21,420 of berating people who have been 1139 00:47:24,890 --> 00:47:23,099 supporting him for years and you know 1140 00:47:28,849 --> 00:47:24,900 there's backstory and stuff but it was a 1141 00:47:30,890 --> 00:47:28,859 little bit shocking to see the way that 1142 00:47:33,890 --> 00:47:30,900 he sort of held himself through that 1143 00:47:35,930 --> 00:47:33,900 conversation in light of his history of 1144 00:47:37,390 --> 00:47:35,940 man like actually being in the Pentagon 1145 00:47:39,950 --> 00:47:37,400 managing teams 1146 00:47:41,630 --> 00:47:39,960 now and that that spun a lot of 1147 00:47:43,849 --> 00:47:41,640 discussion about 1148 00:47:46,190 --> 00:47:43,859 um what seemed to me like people's 1149 00:47:48,230 --> 00:47:46,200 inability to discern the difference 1150 00:47:49,609 --> 00:47:48,240 between a sock puppet account and an 1151 00:47:52,130 --> 00:47:49,619 anonymous account 1152 00:47:54,050 --> 00:47:52,140 right and I think the major distinction 1153 00:47:56,809 --> 00:47:54,060 here is that like if you're on if you're 1154 00:47:58,670 --> 00:47:56,819 anonymous on Twitter like a good number 1155 00:48:00,470 --> 00:47:58,680 of our friends are you're still 1156 00:48:02,930 --> 00:48:00,480 representing yourself as that Anonymous 1157 00:48:04,550 --> 00:48:02,940 name as that pseudonym when a sock 1158 00:48:06,710 --> 00:48:04,560 puppet account you are pretending to be 1159 00:48:09,170 --> 00:48:06,720 a different person and in fact you 1160 00:48:10,790 --> 00:48:09,180 interact maybe with yourself or with 1161 00:48:13,309 --> 00:48:10,800 other people 1162 00:48:15,770 --> 00:48:13,319 under the guise of being another person 1163 00:48:18,589 --> 00:48:15,780 right and that that was kind of the 1164 00:48:21,609 --> 00:48:18,599 issue with Lou Elizondo he was using 1165 00:48:24,170 --> 00:48:21,619 yeah I I guess it's not like 1166 00:48:26,150 --> 00:48:24,180 conclusively proven but he was uh the 1167 00:48:29,690 --> 00:48:26,160 faceless bureaucrat account also right 1168 00:48:32,690 --> 00:48:29,700 and that person is kind of get into 1169 00:48:35,150 --> 00:48:32,700 fights and uh go after people a little 1170 00:48:37,390 --> 00:48:35,160 bit when he couldn't publicly do that I 1171 00:48:40,970 --> 00:48:37,400 think that was kind of the premise right 1172 00:48:43,190 --> 00:48:40,980 I I have to upfront admit that like 1173 00:48:45,470 --> 00:48:43,200 coming out of the UFO scene after my 1174 00:48:50,329 --> 00:48:45,480 long Hiatus um 1175 00:48:52,370 --> 00:48:50,339 I the the whole atip and ttsa stuff I 1176 00:48:53,870 --> 00:48:52,380 wasn't feeling it from the jump so I 1177 00:48:56,630 --> 00:48:53,880 didn't pay close attention to these 1178 00:48:58,670 --> 00:48:56,640 things uh Elizondo I caught a whiff of 1179 00:49:02,210 --> 00:48:58,680 that and I was just like yeah no 1180 00:49:05,750 --> 00:49:02,220 yeah Leah what about the um the thing 1181 00:49:07,910 --> 00:49:05,760 that you saw with Elizondo on UCR what 1182 00:49:09,290 --> 00:49:07,920 made you wanna this is something I want 1183 00:49:11,809 --> 00:49:09,300 to dive into 1184 00:49:14,690 --> 00:49:11,819 well I mean remember I didn't have any 1185 00:49:16,130 --> 00:49:14,700 of the background or contacts and when I 1186 00:49:18,170 --> 00:49:16,140 listened to it 1187 00:49:20,210 --> 00:49:18,180 frankly it didn't even seem like that 1188 00:49:22,130 --> 00:49:20,220 much of a super contentious conversation 1189 00:49:24,050 --> 00:49:22,140 it got a little heated but I didn't 1190 00:49:28,190 --> 00:49:24,060 listen to it and think 1191 00:49:30,349 --> 00:49:28,200 wow there's a lot of anger and intensity 1192 00:49:32,510 --> 00:49:30,359 here I just thought oh I think there was 1193 00:49:34,190 --> 00:49:32,520 some weird miscommunication going on I 1194 00:49:36,290 --> 00:49:34,200 think you know I think it's also time to 1195 00:49:37,970 --> 00:49:36,300 comment and say that for some and it 1196 00:49:40,010 --> 00:49:37,980 reminds me of how people feel about Mick 1197 00:49:42,530 --> 00:49:40,020 West where there's something about 1198 00:49:44,690 --> 00:49:42,540 rather that seems to just some people 1199 00:49:47,809 --> 00:49:44,700 just don't like this guy and it 1200 00:49:49,609 --> 00:49:47,819 completely mystifies me like yeah you 1201 00:49:51,050 --> 00:49:49,619 know it's like Midwest I think just 1202 00:49:52,849 --> 00:49:51,060 because he has an accent people think 1203 00:49:53,950 --> 00:49:52,859 he's an [\h__\h] 1204 00:49:57,890 --> 00:49:53,960 um 1205 00:49:59,390 --> 00:49:57,900 and I can remember 1206 00:50:01,670 --> 00:49:59,400 listening 1207 00:50:03,670 --> 00:50:01,680 uh shortly thereafter to the interview 1208 00:50:07,309 --> 00:50:03,680 with like John Ramirez 1209 00:50:09,650 --> 00:50:07,319 and also got super contentious over some 1210 00:50:12,770 --> 00:50:09,660 question that to me at the time didn't 1211 00:50:15,470 --> 00:50:12,780 seem like a particularly big deal 1212 00:50:17,809 --> 00:50:15,480 um so I did hear this UCR conversation 1213 00:50:19,730 --> 00:50:17,819 with Elizondo and really what it did was 1214 00:50:21,230 --> 00:50:19,740 it made me spend a lot of time reading 1215 00:50:23,930 --> 00:50:21,240 about who these people actually were 1216 00:50:25,790 --> 00:50:23,940 like who was Lou Elizondo what was his 1217 00:50:28,010 --> 00:50:25,800 involvement in this subject and then 1218 00:50:30,950 --> 00:50:28,020 having to Wade through some of the UCR 1219 00:50:33,109 --> 00:50:30,960 backlog to start piecing together kind 1220 00:50:36,109 --> 00:50:33,119 of the broader narrative that was behind 1221 00:50:39,250 --> 00:50:36,119 that particular episode right 1222 00:50:41,809 --> 00:50:39,260 and then of course uh almost red diet 1223 00:50:43,849 --> 00:50:41,819 led directly into 1224 00:50:47,390 --> 00:50:43,859 um we guess we're calling comma gate on 1225 00:50:50,270 --> 00:50:47,400 our schedule right and this was the um 1226 00:50:52,670 --> 00:50:50,280 the Revelation that Elizondo was 1227 00:50:55,370 --> 00:50:52,680 communicating with certain uh content 1228 00:50:57,290 --> 00:50:55,380 creators uh passing around a list of 1229 00:50:59,270 --> 00:50:57,300 people not to be involved with uh and 1230 00:51:03,470 --> 00:50:59,280 there was some confusion over 1231 00:51:05,450 --> 00:51:03,480 the the there's the term felon five 1232 00:51:07,609 --> 00:51:05,460 yeah and there was some confusion over 1233 00:51:10,910 --> 00:51:07,619 whether that regarded uh five separate 1234 00:51:14,089 --> 00:51:10,920 people or that was uh a nickname for a 1235 00:51:16,970 --> 00:51:14,099 specific an adjectival description for 1236 00:51:19,849 --> 00:51:16,980 one person or a like categorical 1237 00:51:20,690 --> 00:51:19,859 designation for five discreet people I 1238 00:51:23,450 --> 00:51:20,700 think 1239 00:51:26,990 --> 00:51:23,460 um regardless of that uh spreading lists 1240 00:51:28,010 --> 00:51:27,000 around is is a little strange to me 1241 00:51:30,829 --> 00:51:28,020 um 1242 00:51:33,829 --> 00:51:30,839 my two cents uh I'm not really sure what 1243 00:51:36,230 --> 00:51:33,839 being a felon is supposed to mean either 1244 00:51:37,790 --> 00:51:36,240 right is that's that's negative I 1245 00:51:41,270 --> 00:51:37,800 suppose 1246 00:51:44,690 --> 00:51:41,280 yeah well you know you know thing is so 1247 00:51:47,390 --> 00:51:44,700 strange we have somebody Lou Alexander 1248 00:51:48,950 --> 00:51:47,400 who we know worked in the Pentagon we 1249 00:51:51,290 --> 00:51:48,960 don't know exactly what he did he claims 1250 00:51:53,030 --> 00:51:51,300 he was the director of the uh you know 1251 00:51:55,910 --> 00:51:53,040 Advanced airspace threat identification 1252 00:51:57,109 --> 00:51:55,920 program the available reporting on the 1253 00:51:58,250 --> 00:51:57,119 subject suggests that that was 1254 00:51:59,870 --> 00:51:58,260 terminated before he took it over 1255 00:52:01,670 --> 00:51:59,880 there's contention around whether that 1256 00:52:03,349 --> 00:52:01,680 actually happened or not and then he's 1257 00:52:06,770 --> 00:52:03,359 coming on to these shows and then it's 1258 00:52:08,630 --> 00:52:06,780 verified that he he confirms he it you 1259 00:52:10,790 --> 00:52:08,640 know that he's still working for the 1260 00:52:12,410 --> 00:52:10,800 government under contract and then he 1261 00:52:14,390 --> 00:52:12,420 confirms on the show that he's using 1262 00:52:17,210 --> 00:52:14,400 sock puppets to influence the 1263 00:52:18,950 --> 00:52:17,220 community's conversations and then he's 1264 00:52:20,750 --> 00:52:18,960 also acknowledging 1265 00:52:23,270 --> 00:52:20,760 that he or he's also sending around 1266 00:52:25,370 --> 00:52:23,280 lists of things to his content creators 1267 00:52:28,190 --> 00:52:25,380 about who to talk to and not and it's 1268 00:52:30,349 --> 00:52:28,200 like he's doing it in such a strange way 1269 00:52:32,990 --> 00:52:30,359 where it's like in your face but then 1270 00:52:34,849 --> 00:52:33,000 it's like none of it's it I I don't get 1271 00:52:37,130 --> 00:52:34,859 it that's the thing it's so strange it 1272 00:52:39,109 --> 00:52:37,140 doesn't seem like if he was the director 1273 00:52:42,109 --> 00:52:39,119 of this major program and stuff it does 1274 00:52:44,270 --> 00:52:42,119 the behaviors don't really mesh for me 1275 00:52:46,370 --> 00:52:44,280 someone who behaves in that way in my 1276 00:52:48,710 --> 00:52:46,380 opinion is not someone to trust well 1277 00:52:51,049 --> 00:52:48,720 that's certainly true though I mean 1278 00:52:52,970 --> 00:52:51,059 sorry this um 1279 00:52:54,470 --> 00:52:52,980 this goes back to what I harp on 1280 00:52:56,569 --> 00:52:54,480 constantly which is a willingness to 1281 00:52:58,849 --> 00:52:56,579 have hard conversations 1282 00:53:00,950 --> 00:52:58,859 um and the way you build trust or create 1283 00:53:03,530 --> 00:53:00,960 high trust relationships both 1284 00:53:06,650 --> 00:53:03,540 professionally personally romantically 1285 00:53:08,930 --> 00:53:06,660 Etc is to be willing to in good faith 1286 00:53:11,930 --> 00:53:08,940 engage in difficult conversations and 1287 00:53:12,589 --> 00:53:11,940 ask and answer difficult conversations 1288 00:53:17,990 --> 00:53:12,599 um 1289 00:53:21,230 --> 00:53:18,000 from another party right like when when 1290 00:53:23,150 --> 00:53:21,240 I see someone who constantly harps on 1291 00:53:24,470 --> 00:53:23,160 how everyone else is an [\h__\h] all it 1292 00:53:26,750 --> 00:53:24,480 makes me think is that person's an 1293 00:53:29,569 --> 00:53:26,760 [\h__\h] right and 1294 00:53:32,089 --> 00:53:29,579 um like similarly whenever I 1295 00:53:34,670 --> 00:53:32,099 see people refuse to answer questions or 1296 00:53:36,170 --> 00:53:34,680 behave disingenuously or dishonestly it 1297 00:53:37,670 --> 00:53:36,180 makes me think that they have a chip in 1298 00:53:39,589 --> 00:53:37,680 their shoulder and assume everybody else 1299 00:53:42,470 --> 00:53:39,599 is as much of a grifter or dishonest 1300 00:53:46,670 --> 00:53:42,480 person as they are it's projection all 1301 00:53:51,470 --> 00:53:49,190 so that was that was comedy and does 1302 00:53:54,890 --> 00:53:51,480 anybody remember the timing of that 1303 00:53:56,270 --> 00:53:54,900 was it was it was yeah it was like the 1304 00:54:00,109 --> 00:53:56,280 end of May 1305 00:54:01,750 --> 00:54:00,119 man I guess it's a long year okay and 1306 00:54:05,089 --> 00:54:01,760 that means 1307 00:54:08,390 --> 00:54:05,099 and that kind of ties in time line wise 1308 00:54:12,410 --> 00:54:08,400 with the whole Elizondo with his 1309 00:54:16,549 --> 00:54:12,420 um investigator uh uh general report and 1310 00:54:18,470 --> 00:54:16,559 all of the IG report yes yeah and um so 1311 00:54:20,930 --> 00:54:18,480 I think the first time I heard about his 1312 00:54:22,849 --> 00:54:20,940 IG report was the 1313 00:54:26,750 --> 00:54:22,859 I want to say it was a debrief article 1314 00:54:28,790 --> 00:54:26,760 by McMillan about Reed and how he was 1315 00:54:29,450 --> 00:54:28,800 fired from his position 1316 00:54:32,089 --> 00:54:29,460 um 1317 00:54:35,809 --> 00:54:32,099 in the article I want to say implied 1318 00:54:37,490 --> 00:54:35,819 that the IG complaint uh had some 1319 00:54:40,190 --> 00:54:37,500 responsibility in removing him from his 1320 00:54:41,450 --> 00:54:40,200 position as well as uh claims of sexual 1321 00:54:43,069 --> 00:54:41,460 harassment 1322 00:54:49,670 --> 00:54:43,079 now 1323 00:54:52,069 --> 00:54:49,680 is it Gary Reed yeah Gary Reed is in a 1324 00:54:56,089 --> 00:54:54,290 um I don't have any any further 1325 00:54:58,069 --> 00:54:56,099 information from that he was not fired 1326 00:55:00,890 --> 00:54:58,079 it sounds like 1327 00:55:02,690 --> 00:55:00,900 um removed might be the right word or 1328 00:55:03,710 --> 00:55:02,700 transferred might be the right word or 1329 00:55:09,170 --> 00:55:03,720 like 1330 00:55:12,530 --> 00:55:09,180 um and as far as I know that IG 1331 00:55:16,010 --> 00:55:12,540 complaint is not resolved otherwise it 1332 00:55:21,170 --> 00:55:18,530 I don't know honestly like if I remember 1333 00:55:22,730 --> 00:55:21,180 correctly I thought that like doesn't uh 1334 00:55:25,069 --> 00:55:22,740 done a couple journalists actually have 1335 00:55:26,750 --> 00:55:25,079 a full version of it or is it only the 1336 00:55:28,130 --> 00:55:26,760 submission that they have they don't 1337 00:55:30,829 --> 00:55:28,140 actually have a resolution the full 1338 00:55:33,109 --> 00:55:30,839 version was leaked by Green Street 1339 00:55:35,510 --> 00:55:33,119 um on one of his uh basement office 1340 00:55:37,910 --> 00:55:35,520 episodes because he made reference to it 1341 00:55:40,250 --> 00:55:37,920 in that video and a number of us I think 1342 00:55:41,630 --> 00:55:40,260 I included said you need to cite your 1343 00:55:43,490 --> 00:55:41,640 sources 1344 00:55:45,829 --> 00:55:43,500 primarily because I wanted to read it 1345 00:55:48,410 --> 00:55:45,839 myself and then I think about a week 1346 00:55:50,510 --> 00:55:48,420 later after uploading it he updated the 1347 00:55:53,270 --> 00:55:50,520 the sources in that video and it was on 1348 00:55:55,549 --> 00:55:53,280 there that was leaked directly by Green 1349 00:55:56,950 --> 00:55:55,559 Street and he claims that it was given 1350 00:55:59,510 --> 00:55:56,960 to him by 1351 00:56:01,069 --> 00:55:59,520 elizondo's management I suppose that was 1352 00:56:03,170 --> 00:56:01,079 a little unclear about the exact person 1353 00:56:04,549 --> 00:56:03,180 who gave it to him and there was a 1354 00:56:06,049 --> 00:56:04,559 little bit of uh there's a little bit of 1355 00:56:07,309 --> 00:56:06,059 a kerfuffle about that people were 1356 00:56:08,510 --> 00:56:07,319 really upset that he released that 1357 00:56:10,190 --> 00:56:08,520 thinking that maybe he wasn't supposed 1358 00:56:11,569 --> 00:56:10,200 to especially because if it's an ongoing 1359 00:56:13,309 --> 00:56:11,579 investigation 1360 00:56:15,049 --> 00:56:13,319 you know that could be sensitive 1361 00:56:15,890 --> 00:56:15,059 material 1362 00:56:18,230 --> 00:56:15,900 um 1363 00:56:20,750 --> 00:56:18,240 but yeah it's it's out there 1364 00:56:22,010 --> 00:56:20,760 it's I

think knows a bit more about this 1368 00:56:31,430 --> 00:56:29,819 I I may be wrong is Steve long who's in 1369 00:56:33,410 --> 00:56:31,440 the chat right now 1370 00:56:35,750 --> 00:56:33,420 he

there's 1430 00:58:57,230 --> 00:58:54,540 a critical need to be more visible in 1431 00:58:58,910 --> 00:58:57,240 that space given the caliber and quality 1432 00:59:00,349 --> 00:58:58,920 of conversation we've heard off that 1433 00:59:03,710 --> 00:59:00,359 platform 1434 00:59:05,630 --> 00:59:03,720 um so I would say to audience folks just 1435 00:59:07,609 --> 00:59:05,640 in general keep your eyes peeled we'll 1436 00:59:10,430 --> 00:59:07,619 start hosting more Twitter spaces some 1437 00:59:13,730 --> 00:59:10,440 of these open Line style stuff just some 1438 00:59:17,809 --> 00:59:13,740 themed conversations but I do still feel 1439 00:59:20,210 --> 00:59:17,819 in my heart that and in my mind that the 1440 00:59:21,829 --> 00:59:20,220 primary goal of this entire project is 1441 00:59:23,630 --> 00:59:21,839 to elevate the conversation on these 1442 00:59:26,390 --> 00:59:23,640 subjects and to bring a little bit more 1443 00:59:28,430 --> 00:59:26,400 intellectual rigor and interrogation and 1444 00:59:31,849 --> 00:59:28,440 seriousness 1445 00:59:33,650 --> 00:59:31,859 um and also in turn to show people what 1446 00:59:36,230 --> 00:59:33,660 it looks like to learn and discuss and 1447 00:59:38,630 --> 00:59:36,240 explore in public rather than just 1448 00:59:40,370 --> 00:59:38,640 consume YouTube videos I guess we're one 1449 00:59:42,710 --> 00:59:40,380 of those but just consume YouTube videos 1450 00:59:45,950 --> 00:59:42,720 and listen to other people spout off 1451 00:59:47,690 --> 00:59:45,960 their own opinions so yeah so oh we're 1452 00:59:50,829 --> 00:59:47,700 just Steve long just joined us backstage 1453 00:59:53,990 --> 00:59:50,839 there we go okay awesome prayers 1454 00:59:55,549 --> 00:59:54,000 Steve thank you so

isn't Lou currently working 1458 01:00:04,309 --> 01:00:01,380 for the space force and didn't Chris 1459 01:00:06,470 --> 01:00:04,319 sharp get Susan Goff to uh confirm that 1460 01:00:08,150 --> 01:00:06,480 uh as I understand yeah he's an advisor 1461 01:00:10,490 --> 01:00:08,160 to the space force or at least was 1462 01:00:14,569 --> 01:00:10,500 though I'm not exactly sure what he'd be 1463 01:00:16,970 --> 01:00:14,579 advising on as he is not a UFO guy 1464 01:00:17,809 --> 01:00:16,980 um maybe it's how to 1465 01:00:21,470 --> 01:00:17,819 um 1466 01:00:24,470 --> 01:00:21,480 what's it called uh sap status maybe 1467 01:00:27,109 --> 01:00:24,480 it's it's uh for securing sap status for 1468 01:00:29,390 --> 01:00:27,119 certain things I know he um he did that 1469 01:00:31,670 --> 01:00:29,400 with ASAP right that's why he was kind 1470 01:00:35,030 --> 01:00:31,680 of brought on as security into secure uh 1471 01:00:37,490 --> 01:00:35,040 intercept status for the project which 1472 01:00:38,990 --> 01:00:37,500 um inevitably failed uh it was I think 1473 01:00:42,049 --> 01:00:39,000 that's actually where the name atip came 1474 01:00:44,390 --> 01:00:42,059 from right was uh Harry Reid Senator 1475 01:00:46,849 --> 01:00:44,400 Harry Reid was trying to file uh sap 1476 01:00:48,890 --> 01:00:46,859 status for OS app and he called it atip 1477 01:00:50,809 --> 01:00:48,900 I think probably to throw people off the 1478 01:00:53,630 --> 01:00:50,819 trail since they didn't really 1479 01:00:55,789 --> 01:00:53,640 um have much to show for what they did 1480 01:00:58,549 --> 01:00:55,799 with that grant money right that's kind 1481 01:01:03,470 --> 01:00:58,559 of my understanding of how that went 1482 01:01:05,210 --> 01:01:03,480 but anyway sorry bring Steve on Steve 1483 01:01:08,630 --> 01:01:05,220 welcome to Invisible night school friend 1484 01:01:14,329 --> 01:01:10,130 no thanks for having me guys can you 1485

Harry Reid um what 1491 01:01:40,250 --> 01:01:38,520 his position actually is what happened 1492 01:01:45,349 --> 01:01:40,260 with him I feel like you knew something 1493 01:01:51,170 --> 01:01:47,930 um I hadn't did a foyer request uh 1494 01:01:53,690 --> 01:01:51,180 trying to uh obtain the the IG report uh 1495 01:01:57,170 --> 01:01:53,700 an unredacted copy of it after Green 1496 01:01:58,849 --> 01:01:57,180 Street uh released his redacted copy 1497 01:02:01,250 --> 01:01:58,859 um and I got a pretty quick response 1498 01:02:04,130 --> 01:02:01,260 back uh denying that and they had cited 1499 01:02:07,010 --> 01:02:04,140 essentially uh the exemption was due to 1500 01:02:09,049 --> 01:02:07,020 uh ongoing investigation and that didn't 1501 01:02:12,049 --> 01:02:09,059 necessarily mean that that 1502 01:02:14,630 --> 01:02:12,059 uh IG was still under investigation or 1503 01:02:15,950 --> 01:02:14,640 that it was even related uh to that 1504 01:02:18,349 --> 01:02:15,960 um and they were very 1505 01:02:20,089 --> 01:02:18,359 um specific I forget the exact wording 1506 01:02:22,250 --> 01:02:20,099 but they were specific to say that you 1507 01:02:23,809 --> 01:02:22,260 know this could be a I mean a whole 1508 01:02:25,130 --> 01:02:23,819 range of Investigations it doesn't have 1509 01:02:27,170 --> 01:02:25,140 to mean something by the federal 1510 01:02:29,109 --> 01:02:27,180 government or by uh 1511 01:02:31,910 --> 01:02:29,119 um having to do with uh even that 1512 01:02:34,730 --> 01:02:31,920 Elizondo IG report 1513 01:02:37,010 --> 01:02:34,740 um which uh I again is just very 1514 01:02:39,049 --> 01:02:37,020 interesting and I you know 1515 01:02:40,370 --> 01:02:39,059 um I just would like to know even 1516 01:02:42,890 --> 01:02:40,380 um and you know Stephen Green Street 1517 01:02:45,170 --> 01:02:42,900 hasn't really clarified unfortunately 1518 01:02:47,690 --> 01:02:45,180 um but when he released uh the IG report 1519 01:02:50,390 --> 01:02:47,700 you know really just in the uh liner 1520 01:02:52,549 --> 01:02:50,400 notes of his YouTube video 1521 01:02:55,250 --> 01:02:52,559 um you know which was very cool uh but 1522 01:02:58,130 --> 01:02:55,260 he had redacted it and you know I'd like 1523 01:02:59,750 --> 01:02:58,140 to know even just the reactions 1524 01:03:02,569 --> 01:02:59,760 um what constituted them and who made 1525 01:03:05,210 --> 01:03:02,579 the decisions was it um was it directed 1526 01:03:07,370 --> 01:03:05,220 by uh you know the New York Post uh did 1527 01:03:09,710 --> 01:03:07,380 we did uh Green Street kind of do it on 1528 01:03:11,390 --> 01:03:09,720 his own was it directed by um whoever he 1529 01:03:12,289 --> 01:03:11,400 got the documents from or by the 1530 01:03:14,569 --> 01:03:12,299 government 1531 01:03:16,789 --> 01:03:14,579 um just you know a lot of valid 1532 01:03:17,690 --> 01:03:16,799 questions I think still remain 1533 01:03:19,970 --> 01:03:17,700 um 1534 01:03:21,230 --> 01:03:19,980 but it's interesting I guess that it you 1535 01:03:23,510 --> 01:03:21,240 know it's still out there and still we 1536 01:03:24,950 --> 01:03:23,520 can't get an unredacted copy one of the 1537 01:03:26,750 --> 01:03:24,960 things that I thought was most uh 1538 01:03:29,510 --> 01:03:26,760 interesting about uh the Gary Reed 1539 01:03:31,789 --> 01:03:29,520 situation that you were talking about uh 1540 01:03:34,609 --> 01:03:31,799 is that you know that in April of this 1541 01:03:36,829 --> 01:03:34,619 year when uh that story broke 1542 01:03:39,289 --> 01:03:36,839 um you know it was very big and uh right 1543 01:03:42,410 --> 01:03:39,299 away anybody who brought any type of 1544 01:03:45,289 --> 01:03:42,420 scrutiny up or uh questioned uh the 1545 01:03:47,750 --> 01:03:45,299 article uh stating that he was fired 1546 01:03:49,309 --> 01:03:47,760 from his responsibilities within the U.S 1547 01:03:51,890 --> 01:03:49,319 government and you know that's the quote 1548 01:03:53,450 --> 01:03:51,900 right there right anybody that that 1549 01:03:55,730 --> 01:03:53,460 questioned that because this was based 1550 01:03:58,549 --> 01:03:55,740 upon just Anonymous sources uh was 1551 01:04:01,670 --> 01:03:58,559 quickly rebuffed um and uh people very 1552 01:04:04,370 --> 01:04:01,680 quickly went to get uh comments uh from 1553 01:04:06,530 --> 01:04:04,380 uh official spokespeople at the U.S 1554 01:04:08,930 --> 01:04:06,540 government and at the Pentagon uh and 1555 01:04:10,609 --> 01:04:08,940 they were not uh lining up with what we 1556 01:04:12,650 --> 01:04:10,619 were being told by say you know Tim 1557 01:04:15,349 --> 01:04:12,660 McMillan it's a debrief or uh Chris 1558 01:04:17,030 --> 01:04:15,359 sharp over collaboration times uh and it 1559 01:04:19,490 --> 01:04:17,040 turned out that Gary Reed was not fired 1560 01:04:21,710 --> 01:04:19,500 he was you know trying transferred to a 1561 01:04:23,690 --> 01:04:21,720 different department and in fact he was 1562 01:04:26,390 --> 01:04:23,700 transferred after that article had come 1563 01:04:27,950 --> 01:04:26,400 out it

01:06:29,760 would like to propose I now as a total 1619 01:06:34,370 --> 01:06:32,700 Layman like like you guys blow my mind 1620 01:06:36,890 --> 01:06:34,380 on how smart you guys are I can't keep 1621 01:06:39,470 --> 01:06:36,900 up like some of the stuff I'm like we're 1622 01:06:40,789 --> 01:06:39,480 all also Layman don't worry we're just 1623 01:06:44,510 --> 01:06:40,799 playing we just play nerds on the 1624 01:06:46,549 --> 01:06:44,520 internet yeah so like but I I try to 1625 01:06:48,529 --> 01:06:46,559 find the actual studies and the language 1626 01:06:51,010 --> 01:06:48,539 to be able to bridge The Divide right 1627 01:06:54,410 --> 01:06:51,020 and and I'm finding all this stuff on on 1628 01:06:57,230 --> 01:06:54,420 biophotonic reactionary to The Observer 1629 01:06:59,990 --> 01:06:57,240 belief effect uh and and being 1630 01:07:03,109 --> 01:07:00,000 photographed on the photomic on the 1631 01:07:06,890 --> 01:07:03,119 subatomic scales uh carrying this qualia 1632 01:07:09,710 --> 01:07:06,900 and morphing to the observer's belief I 1633 01:07:12,589 --> 01:07:09,720 I feel like there's going to be some of 1634 01:07:14,630 --> 01:07:12,599 that is going to be applicable to some 1635 01:07:17,569 --> 01:07:14,640 of these experiences not all of them buy 1636 01:07:20,270 --> 01:07:17,579 a long shot but like I I don't know it 1637 01:07:22,309 --> 01:07:20,280 it almost feels like some of the stuff 1638 01:07:23,809 --> 01:07:22,319 that people are even getting in the ce5 1639 01:07:26,150 --> 01:07:23,819 and the high stuff right because you 1640 01:07:29,089 --> 01:07:26,160 have all of these different factions and 1641 01:07:31,190 --> 01:07:29,099 they're all getting stuff on film that 1642 01:07:33,890 --> 01:07:31,200 all look alike just like the Bledsoe 1643 01:07:35,750 --> 01:07:33,900 stuff right and and but you have the 1644 01:07:37,130 --> 01:07:35,760 belief is what separates it and that's 1645 01:07:38,630 --> 01:07:37,140 the only thing that separates it and 1646 01:07:41,029 --> 01:07:38,640 it's only in the mind of the holder 1647 01:07:43,010 --> 01:07:41,039 because again it all resembles each 1648 01:07:45,529 --> 01:07:43,020 other on the film 1649 01:07:48,410 --> 01:07:45,539 um but you know you got Greer's team 1650 01:07:51,289 --> 01:07:48,420 that think they're seeing syrians and uh 1651 01:07:53,390 --> 01:07:51,299 Isa and Washington think certain lyrians 1652 01:07:55,430 --> 01:07:53,400 and uh the people's disclosure movement 1653 01:08:00,190 --> 01:07:55,440 I think it's Pleiadians and octurians 1654 01:08:02,809 --> 01:08:00,200 and there's angels and but it feels like 1655 01:08:04,849 --> 01:08:02,819 belief is going to play a much bigger 1656 01:08:06,589 --> 01:08:04,859 role in this than than what we believe 1657 01:08:07,970 --> 01:08:06,599 and I just wanted to get your guys's 1658 01:08:11,690 --> 01:08:07,980 opinions on that 1659 01:08:13,670 --> 01:08:11,700 yeah so first of all like bu and I have 1660 01:08:15,529 --> 01:08:13,680 had some great conversations on this I 1661 01:08:17,030 --> 01:08:15,539 mean you've been so generous in Sharing 1662 01:08:18,169 --> 01:08:17,040 I think it was 1663 01:08:20,510 --> 01:08:18,179 um 1664 01:08:22,970 --> 01:08:20,520 Dr Joseph Burks 1665 01:08:24,530 --> 01:08:22,980 uh blog and papers 1666 01:08:26,329 --> 01:08:24,540 um it and you're you're touching on 1667 01:08:28,430 --> 01:08:26,339 something that I bring up pretty 1668 01:08:31,910 --> 01:08:28,440 frequently which is this kind of the 1669 01:08:34,370 --> 01:08:31,920 universality of these experiences and 1670 01:08:37,550 --> 01:08:34,380 um like you said how people's belief 1671 01:08:38,990 --> 01:08:37,560 systems frame and affect their 1672 01:08:40,669 --> 01:08:39,000 interpretation or sense making 1673 01:08:42,650 --> 01:08:40,679 associated with them 1674 01:08:44,930 --> 01:08:42,660 um I I certainly don't want to speak for 1675 01:08:48,050 --> 01:08:44,940 you but I'm always struck 1676 01:08:50,209 --> 01:08:48,060 um by how similar these experiences are 1677 01:08:52,789 --> 01:08:50,219 across different cultures and histories 1678 01:08:55,189 --> 01:08:52,799 and religions and Frameworks 1679 01:08:57,289 --> 01:08:55,199 um but it feels like different factions 1680 01:08:59,410 --> 01:08:57,299 or groups quote unquote almost talk past 1681 01:09:01,789 --> 01:08:59,420 one another because they can be rigidly 1682 01:09:03,530 --> 01:09:01,799 within the framework of their particular 1683 01:09:05,150 --> 01:09:03,540 discipline 1684 01:09:06,289 --> 01:09:05,160 um and and I do think at the heart of 1685 01:09:08,150 --> 01:09:06,299 all of this 1686 01:09:10,669 --> 01:09:08,160 um is a deeply interdisciplinary and 1687 01:09:12,289 --> 01:09:10,679 cross-disciplinary approach it's not 1688 01:09:14,809 --> 01:09:12,299 going to be limited to just one 1689 01:09:17,829 --> 01:09:14,819 particular field or one particular like 1690 01:09:23,050 --> 01:09:19,370 agreed 1691 01:09:27,289 --> 01:09:25,970 and Moses and Ezekiel we're all doing 1692 01:09:28,570 --> 01:09:27,299 the same thing we're gonna be wrong 1693 01:09:31,550 --> 01:09:28,580 right 1694 01:09:33,470 --> 01:09:31,560 they were all doing hikes but going back 1695 01:09:36,650 --> 01:09:33,480 into the original descriptions of both 1696 01:09:39,110 --> 01:09:36,660 like the Ezekiel will and and Shiva 1697 01:09:42,229 --> 01:09:39,120 their original transcriptions and 1698 01:09:45,050 --> 01:09:42,239 descriptions are much more similar than 1699 01:09:46,789 --> 01:09:45,060 than the translated ones are right and 1700 01:09:48,349 --> 01:09:46,799 it feels like it's just the same thing 1701 01:09:51,349 --> 01:09:48,359 the world over just translated 1702 01:09:52,970 --> 01:09:51,359 differently in the eyes of the beholder 1703 01:09:55,250 --> 01:09:52,980 right I mean this is kind of the same 1704 01:09:57,110 --> 01:09:55,260 way cultures work too right we all have 1705 01:09:58,430 --> 01:09:57,120 kind of that cultural filter that we see 1706 01:10:00,530 --> 01:09:58,440 things through and people on the other 1707 01:10:03,470 --> 01:10:00,540 side of other parts of the world see it 1708 01:10:05,450 --> 01:10:03,480 through a different uh kind of lens also 1709 01:10:06,290 --> 01:10:05,460 when you talk about Ezekiel and the 1710 01:10:07,150 --> 01:10:06,300 wheel 1711 01:10:09,590 --> 01:10:07,160 um 1712 01:10:11,110 --> 01:10:09,600 growing up I wasn't very religious so I 1713 01:10:17,090 --> 01:10:11,120 know 1714 01:10:19,370 --> 01:10:17,100 only a little bit was was that story 1715 01:10:21,709 --> 01:10:19,380 um reporting a sighting or is that more 1716 01:10:26,229 --> 01:10:21,719 of a um was that a vision or was that 1717 01:10:28,370 --> 01:10:26,239 just more of a um a text to kind of 1718 01:10:31,610 --> 01:10:28,380 communicate something communicate a 1719 01:10:33,590 --> 01:10:31,620 concept or or was it a vision or a dream 1720 01:10:37,250 --> 01:10:33,600 you know what are the specifics of the 1721 01:10:39,229 --> 01:10:37,260 uh ezekiel's wheel story do you know 1722 01:10:42,350 --> 01:10:39,239 I mean I'm of course not a scholar 1723 01:10:44,570 --> 01:10:42,360 either but in the descriptions and and 1724 01:10:48,290 --> 01:10:44,580 the translations that that I've read it 1725 01:10:50,270 --> 01:10:48,300 was a real event scene and in the in the 1726 01:10:52,669 --> 01:10:50,280 measurements were an extra step of 1727 01:10:54,890 --> 01:10:52,679 validity in in my mind but then again I 1728 01:10:56,510 --> 01:10:54,900 don't know I haven't studied to see if 1729 01:10:58,010 --> 01:10:56,520 that was inserted later by another 1730 01:10:59,870 --> 01:10:58,020 scribe 1731 01:11:01,370 --> 01:10:59,880 um because we have cognitive dissonance 1732 01:11:03,830 --> 01:11:01,380 amongst these scribes throughout the 1733 01:11:06,410 --> 01:11:03,840 generations re-iterating the 1734 01:11:09,950 --> 01:11:06,420 translations as well and we we do have a 1735 01:11:11,930 --> 01:11:09,960 historical proof of that happening too 1736 01:11:13,910 --> 01:11:11,940 um it's yeah it's really interesting 1737 01:11:15,830 --> 01:11:13,920 that like humans from the beginning of 1738 01:11:17,450 --> 01:11:15,840 time have been seeing things in this guy 1739 01:11:18,290 --> 01:11:17,460 that they don't know and they do kind of 1740 01:11:21,470 --> 01:11:18,300 just 1741 01:11:23,870 --> 01:11:21,480 fit their their kind of cultural view on 1742 01:11:26,810 --> 01:11:23,880 top of it to explain it since we're all 1743 01:11:28,910 --> 01:11:26,820 I think kind of wired to want instant 1744 01:11:30,649 --> 01:11:28,920 gratification and answers and stuff and 1745 01:11:32,270 --> 01:11:30,659 you know that's why we like kind of 1746 01:11:33,590 --> 01:11:32,280 automatically seek out authorities and 1747 01:11:35,450 --> 01:11:33,600 kind of create authorities where there 1748 01:11:37,490 --> 01:11:35,460 are none kind of like what we do in the 1749 01:11:38,209 --> 01:11:37,500 UFO field now 1750 01:11:39,950 --> 01:11:38,219 um 1751 01:11:42,350 --> 01:11:39,960 so yeah I mean I mean that kind of makes 1752 01:11:45,410 --> 01:11:42,360 sense if that was like an actual event 1753 01:11:47,390 --> 01:11:45,420 and not not more of a um 1754 01:11:48,850 --> 01:11:47,400 more of a like a parable or anything 1755 01:11:51,050 --> 01:11:48,860 like that 1756 01:11:53,630 --> 01:11:51,060 there was also another paper I found 1757 01:11:56,149 --> 01:11:53,640 that Thomas Bearden did in 1979 and the 1758 01:11:57,770 --> 01:11:56,159 only reason I found it it was it was 1759 01:11:59,270 --> 01:11:57,780 recommended reading by the U.S Navy 1760 01:12:01,669 --> 01:11:59,280 military 1761 01:12:03,410 --> 01:12:01,679 um actual Government website and and I 1762 01:12:05,149 --> 01:12:03,420 I've got it actually linked on on my 1763 01:12:06,590 --> 01:12:05,159 Twitter too and I'll I'll relocity to 1764 01:12:08,209 --> 01:12:06,600 re-share it too 1765 01:12:10,070 --> 01:12:08,219 um but even back then they were talking 1766 01:12:11,630 --> 01:12:10,080 about the physical manifestation of 1767 01:12:13,729 --> 01:12:11,640 topless 1768 01:12:17,330 --> 01:12:13,739 um based upon a large enough people got 1769 01:12:20,990 --> 01:12:17,340 together with belief and and possible 1770 01:12:23,209 --> 01:12:21,000 trauma to and to instigate the the thing 1771 01:12:25,430 --> 01:12:23,219 right and and then we see him back up 1772 01:12:27,770 --> 01:12:25,440 all these battles and all these these 1773 01:12:31,250 --> 01:12:27,780 flames of Shields and shields of flame 1774 01:12:32,990 --> 01:12:31,260 and uh do you know all of it even the 1775 01:12:34,910 --> 01:12:33,000 Foo Fighters the Foo Fighters me could 1776 01:12:37,250 --> 01:12:34,920 have been just the the air Pilots 1777 01:12:38,870 --> 01:12:37,260 praying for Angels you know and then 1778 01:12:41,330 --> 01:12:38,880 that being that manifestation for them 1779 01:12:44,030 --> 01:12:41,340 you know I don't know you know what this 1780 01:12:46,189 --> 01:12:44,040 reminds me of is that that story about a 1781 01:12:49,209 --> 01:12:46,199 tour of the Hun and we Leo the second 1782 01:12:52,910 --> 01:12:49,219 and how Attila the Hun turned back 1783 01:12:54,890 --> 01:12:52,920 because he saw Peter and Paul with 1784 01:12:57,350 --> 01:12:54,900 flaming swords or something in the sky 1785 01:12:59,510 --> 01:12:57,360 and didn't proceed with the battle you 1786 01:13:01,250 --> 01:12:59,520 know like I whenever I I think about 1787 01:13:04,130 --> 01:13:01,260 these things I keep falling back to what 1788 01:13:07,070 --> 01:13:04,140 Terence McKenna said about sort of 1789 01:13:09,110 --> 01:13:07,080 um you like existing in a complex system 1790 01:13:12,350 --> 01:13:09,120 with different attractors that sort of 1791 01:13:14,390 --> 01:13:12,360 compel human the human trajectory in 1792 01:13:16,310 --> 01:13:14,400 particular directions and I always think 1793 01:13:20,870 --> 01:13:16,320 of that event right or these kind of 1794 01:13:23,689 --> 01:13:20,880 anomalous events in terms of helping to 1795 01:13:26,689 --> 01:13:23,699 shape or refactor the human approach to 1796 01:13:31,330 --> 01:13:26,699 different things and also that exists 1797 01:13:33,530 --> 01:13:31,340 sometimes like this story about Leo II 1798 01:13:35,209 --> 01:13:33,540 in ways that 1799 01:13:36,890 --> 01:13:35,219 we currently now see I mean it's 1800 01:13:38,450 --> 01:13:36,900 effectively an anomalous thing that 1801 01:13:40,430 --> 01:13:38,460 deeply affected the trajectory of 1802 01:13:42,970 --> 01:13:40,440 History like we don't really know what 1803 01:13:46,370 --> 01:13:42,980 was seen or what actually happened 1804 01:13:50,510 --> 01:13:46,380 other than it prevented an enormous 1805 01:13:52,010 --> 01:13:50,520 battle from occurring so I do think 1806 01:13:53,450 --> 01:13:52,020 um and I like the I like that you 1807 01:13:55,729 --> 01:13:53,460 brought up topaz like I think of 1808 01:13:58,370 --> 01:13:55,739 agrigors as well like this sort of 1809 01:14:00,169 --> 01:13:58,380 Community Spirits or forces or energies 1810 01:14:02,630 --> 01:14:00,179 that arise when you're in a group 1811 01:14:03,290 --> 01:14:02,640 practicing in a particular way 1812 01:14:06,590 --> 01:14:03,300 um 1813 01:14:08,209 --> 01:14:06,600 and and just as a a brief aside like I 1814 01:14:09,890 --> 01:14:08,219 spent um 1815 01:14:13,010 --> 01:14:09,900 from Christmas through New Year is that 1816 01:14:14,930 --> 01:14:13,020 a Zen monastic Retreat and I can tell 1817 01:14:17,149 --> 01:14:14,940 you very categorically that the energy 1818 01:14:19,550 --> 01:14:17,159 that you experience or sort of the 1819 01:14:21,350 --> 01:14:19,560 experience of deep meditation in a 1820 01:14:23,990 --> 01:14:21,360 intense group setting is very very 1821 01:14:25,970 --> 01:14:24,000 different than when it's just you 1822 01:14:27,470 --> 01:14:25,980 um and I kept thinking of topos and 1823 01:14:28,729 --> 01:14:27,480 eager girls while I was there because I 1824 01:14:30,709 --> 01:14:28,739 was thinking wow there's this whole 1825 01:14:33,649 --> 01:14:30,719 group of all of us concentrating very 1826 01:14:36,350 --> 01:14:33,659 very hard on one very specific thing for 1827 01:14:37,130 --> 01:14:36,360 a sustained period and how much of I 1828 01:14:41,990 --> 01:14:37,140 guess 1829 01:14:43,970 --> 01:14:42,000 spiritual or internal practice makes use 1830 01:14:45,770 --> 01:14:43,980 of these ideas 1831 01:14:49,130 --> 01:14:45,780 what what's the difference between a 1832 01:14:51,169 --> 01:14:49,140 tall a tall plan and a Gregor and I I 1833 01:14:53,810 --> 01:14:51,179 kind of thought the factors were kind of 1834 01:14:56,390 --> 01:14:53,820 like a misappropriated understanding 1835 01:14:58,370 --> 01:14:56,400 yeah topos are from like uh I think it's 1836 01:15:00,890 --> 01:14:58,380 like a Tibetan occultist 1837 01:15:02,930 --> 01:15:00,900 thing um I don't think it's specifically 1838 01:15:05,270 --> 01:15:02,940 yoked to Buddhism but it's this idea 1839 01:15:07,070 --> 01:15:05,280 that you can basically through the mind 1840 01:15:12,070 --> 01:15:07,080 and through dedicated concentration 1841 01:15:14,810 --> 01:15:12,080 practices manifest like a physical other 1842 01:15:18,350 --> 01:15:14,820 so would you say that like the the kind 1843 01:15:20,090 --> 01:15:18,360 of UFO schema or folklore is one or is 1844 01:15:21,830 --> 01:15:20,100 it does it have to be something like 1845 01:15:23,330 --> 01:15:21,840 completely physical and real 1846 01:15:25,070 --> 01:15:23,340 no it doesn't have to be physically 1847 01:15:26,990 --> 01:15:25,080 unreal it can be just like a community 1848 01:15:28,729 --> 01:15:27,000 spirit it's like an egregor in that 1849 01:15:30,470 --> 01:15:28,739 sense it doesn't have to be 1850 01:15:33,169 --> 01:15:30,480 um material 1851 01:15:35,750 --> 01:15:33,179 um it just has to be kind of this 1852 01:15:37,310 --> 01:15:35,760 almost like a community of spirit that 1853 01:15:38,990 --> 01:15:37,320 arises from 1854 01:15:41,030 --> 01:15:39,000 um a group of people or a social 1855 01:15:42,890 --> 01:15:41,040 Community what about things like 1856 01:15:45,470 --> 01:15:42,900 superstitions and stuff these kind of 1857 01:15:47,149 --> 01:15:45,480 cultural habits that kind of our 1858 01:15:50,390 --> 01:15:47,159 subconscious and go unspoken but get 1859 01:15:52,550 --> 01:15:50,400 picked up in cultures and communities 1860 01:15:54,470 --> 01:15:52,560 um would you consider that one or am I 1861 01:15:55,250 --> 01:15:54,480 still being well to 1862 01:15:57,950 --> 01:15:55,260 um 1863 01:15:59,750 --> 01:15:57,960 nebula you know that's no no you're not 1864 01:16:01,550 --> 01:15:59,760 being nebulous I don't know I don't 1865 01:16:03,530 --> 01:16:01,560 we're reaching the edge of my knowledge 1866 01:16:06,169 --> 01:16:03,540 I don't feel qualified enough to make 1867 01:16:08,030 --> 01:16:06,179 that comparison but I understand why 1868 01:16:09,890 --> 01:16:08,040 you're why you're asking that okay 1869 01:16:11,390 --> 01:16:09,900 because they have kind of like a similar 1870 01:16:14,149 --> 01:16:11,400 Vibe 1871 01:16:16,370 --> 01:16:14,159 um I I think that the whole UFO kind of 1872 01:16:18,169 --> 01:16:16,380 narrative has a similar Vive to or vibe 1873 01:16:19,669 --> 01:16:18,179 to that too you know what I mean we've 1874 01:16:22,070 --> 01:16:19,679 all grown up 1875 01:16:24,110 --> 01:16:22,080 our whole lives thinking or at least 1876 01:16:25,370 --> 01:16:24,120 here in the States you know you see a 1877 01:16:27,050 --> 01:16:25,380 weird light in the sky oh I know what 1878 01:16:29,149 --> 01:16:27,060 that is that's a that's a flying saucer 1879 01:16:31,130 --> 01:16:29,159 that's a a UFO you know a kind of 1880 01:16:33,410 --> 01:16:31,140 interchangeable words at that point and 1881 01:16:36,470 --> 01:16:33,420 we have kind of like a built-in story 1882 01:16:38,209 --> 01:16:36,480 about them all growing up you know 1883 01:16:39,830 --> 01:16:38,219 they're aliens visiting they're they're 1884 01:16:41,750 --> 01:16:39,840 coming to collect samples and do 1885 01:16:43,370 --> 01:16:41,760 scientific research or like genetic 1886 01:16:45,709 --> 01:16:43,380 experiments on us and things like that 1887 01:16:47,870 --> 01:16:45,719 like these are all kind of 1888 01:16:50,209 --> 01:16:47,880 no one taught me that is what I'm saying 1889 01:16:53,270 --> 01:16:50,219 I just kind of picked it up by living 1890 01:16:57,530 --> 01:16:53,280 here and just kind of being in public so 1891 01:16:59,990 --> 01:16:57,540 I wonder if you could then say that the 1892 01:17:04,430 --> 01:17:00,000 whole UFO narrative as Pop Culture knows 1893 01:17:06,470 --> 01:17:04,440 it is a tulpa or a Gregor 1894 01:17:09,050 --> 01:17:06,480 yeah and I I would I would use the word 1895 01:17:11,870 --> 01:17:09,060 to describe it yeah 1896 01:17:14,810 --> 01:17:11,880 what B was touching on there is uh very 1897 01:17:17,330 --> 01:17:14,820 significant in terms of there being an 1898 01:17:19,430 --> 01:17:17,340 important distinction between the kinds 1899 01:17:22,669 --> 01:17:19,440 of phenomena we're talking about some of 1900 01:17:25,669 --> 01:17:22,679 the phenomena are undoubtedly external 1901 01:17:27,709 --> 01:17:25,679 physical phenomena occurring like in 1902 01:17:30,649 --> 01:17:27,719 reality there are other phenomena 1903 01:17:32,630 --> 01:17:30,659 occurring like within the mind and 1904 01:17:35,689 --> 01:17:32,640 they're all sort of put together uh 1905 01:17:38,209 --> 01:17:35,699 these through the lenses so historically 1906 01:17:40,490 --> 01:17:38,219 if you saw and I talked about this yeah 1907 01:17:43,970 --> 01:17:40,500 like previous episode I think if you see 1908 01:17:47,090 --> 01:17:43,980 a big collection of luminous objects 1909 01:17:50,630 --> 01:17:47,100 traveling in unison across the sky in a 1910 01:17:53,510 --> 01:17:50,640 world where Fireball swarms do not exist 1911 01:17:55,430 --> 01:17:53,520 you and you talk to your friends and 1912 01:17:58,130 --> 01:17:55,440 luminous beings are from the celestial 1913 01:17:59,870 --> 01:17:58,140 plane they are Divine because you know 1914 01:18:02,810 --> 01:17:59,880 they're Divine because they are luminous 1915 01:18:04,610 --> 01:18:02,820 beings right so they're Angels so is 1916 01:18:07,490 --> 01:18:04,620 that a physical are angels physical a 1917 01:18:09,830 --> 01:18:07,500 phenomenon or not I mean if the person 1918 01:18:12,410 --> 01:18:09,840 looking at a fireball swarms that those 1919 01:18:14,270 --> 01:18:12,420 are angels is that physical or not it is 1920 01:18:16,010 --> 01:18:14,280 in a sense in another sense they're 1921 01:18:19,010 --> 01:18:16,020 interpreting it through a specific lens 1922 01:18:21,649 --> 01:18:19,020 it's not yeah uh well and also just 1923 01:18:24,649 --> 01:18:21,659 think of how different like the original 1924 01:18:27,050 --> 01:18:24,659 Source Recollections of angels are for 1925 01:18:29,570 --> 01:18:27,060 versus what the kind kind of popular 1926 01:18:32,209 --> 01:18:29,580 imagination angels are right like angels 1927 01:18:35,149 --> 01:18:32,219 are kind of flattened into these very 1928 01:18:36,830 --> 01:18:35,159 pleasant benevolent creatures uh 1929 01:18:38,810 --> 01:18:36,840 sometimes they're cherubs so their baby 1930 01:18:41,270 --> 01:18:38,820 isn't cute but like if you go back to 1931 01:18:42,709 --> 01:18:41,280 the Testaments like they're terrifying 1932 01:18:45,890 --> 01:18:42,719 they have like 1933 01:18:47,810 --> 01:18:45,900 seven sets of wings and 13 eyes and 1934 01:18:49,790 --> 01:18:47,820 they're awesome and tremendous and like 1935 01:18:51,770 --> 01:18:49,800 the original Old Testament senses of 1936 01:18:52,910 --> 01:18:51,780 those words uh you've been reading as 1937 01:18:53,990 --> 01:18:52,920 you're Ezekiel 1938 01:18:56,570 --> 01:18:54,000 yes 1939 01:18:58,550 --> 01:18:56,580 I've been communing with the ineffable 1940 01:18:59,930 --> 01:18:58,560 for a lot of hours in the last couple 1941 01:19:02,330 --> 01:18:59,940 weeks 1942 01:19:03,470 --> 01:19:02,340 um so yeah so B thank you so much for 1943 01:19:04,850 --> 01:19:03,480 dropping in 1944 01:19:06,770 --> 01:19:04,860 um thanks is there anything you want to 1945 01:19:10,850 --> 01:19:06,780 plug before uh 1946 01:19:13,970 --> 01:19:10,860 yeah definitely be Not Afraid right yeah 1947 01:19:18,770 --> 01:19:13,980 yeah I do I do have a couple of videos 1948 01:19:22,729 --> 01:19:18,780 of of uh things that I think could 1949 01:19:24,229 --> 01:19:22,739 be a per chance by chance similarity of 1950 01:19:26,270 --> 01:19:24,239 some of the phenomena they're talking 1951 01:19:28,130 --> 01:19:26,280 about but again I mean I'm not saying 1952 01:19:30,110 --> 01:19:28,140 that their interpretation of it is right 1953 01:19:31,850 --> 01:19:30,120 but there's something that's just 1954 01:19:32,990 --> 01:19:31,860 naturally existed here with us here all 1955 01:19:35,689 --> 01:19:33,000 the time right and we just need to 1956 01:19:38,090 --> 01:19:35,699 figure it out but but you guys are great 1957 01:19:40,850 --> 01:19:38,100 and I really appreciate your povato in 1958 01:19:42,770 --> 01:19:40,860 in the figuring it out so salute 1959 01:19:45,430 --> 01:19:42,780 awesome well thank you thank you B take 1960 01:19:48,169 --> 01:19:45,440 care talk to you soon 1961 01:19:50,870 --> 01:19:48,179 I just have a one paragraph on a read 1962 01:19:53,090 --> 01:19:50,880 here if that's a uh that so I just 1963 01:19:55,370 --> 01:19:53,100 wanted to validate what uh B was saying 1964 01:19:57,169 --> 01:19:55,380 there in part uh this is a Goddard 1965 01:19:58,970 --> 01:19:57,179 Institute for space studies astronomer 1966 01:20:00,530 --> 01:19:58,980 Richard stuthers wrote the paper 1967 01:20:02,689 --> 01:20:00,540 unidentified flying objects in classical 1968 01:20:04,669 --> 01:20:02,699 Antiquity that was published in the 1969 01:20:07,669 --> 01:20:04,679 peer-reviewed classical journal in 2007 1970 01:20:10,310 --> 01:20:07,679 and in that he uh presents a uh 1971 01:20:11,990 --> 01:20:10,320 compelling argument that uh what we 1972 01:20:14,030 --> 01:20:12,000 might call UFOs today many 1973 01:20:15,770 --> 01:20:14,040 conventionally explicable phenomena can 1974 01:20:17,930 --> 01:20:15,780 be weeded out leaving a small residue of 1975 01:20:19,550 --> 01:20:17,940 puzzling reports these fall neatly into 1976 01:20:20,930 --> 01:20:19,560 the same categories as modern UFO 1977 01:20:23,689 --> 01:20:20,940 reports suggesting that the UFO 1978 01:20:26,649 --> 01:20:23,699 phenomenon whatever it may be due to has 1979 01:20:29,270 --> 01:20:26,659 not changed much over to Millennia 1980 01:20:33,709 --> 01:20:29,280 interesting yeah I like that 1981 01:20:35,750 --> 01:20:33,719 is there a danger sorry go ahead Leo I 1982 01:20:37,850 --> 01:20:35,760 was just gonna draw attention to Vapor 1983 01:20:39,470 --> 01:20:37,860 missiles comment here about topos and 1984 01:20:41,930 --> 01:20:39,480 irregories are complex and fascinating 1985 01:20:44,450 --> 01:20:41,940 and as I learn more it gets clearer why 1986 01:20:46,250 --> 01:20:44,460 the topic is taboo for our culture 1987 01:20:48,169 --> 01:20:46,260 it seems like one thing I need to look 1988 01:20:49,490 --> 01:20:48,179 at more because I have Baseline 1989 01:20:51,229 --> 01:20:49,500 understanding and I think someone else 1990 01:20:53,149 --> 01:20:51,239 in the I may have been vaporms on the 1991 01:20:55,430 --> 01:20:53,159 comments like I basically know them from 1992 01:20:57,770 --> 01:20:55,440 Twin Peaks and 1993 01:20:58,930 --> 01:20:57,780 um uh some some lore surrounding 1994 01:21:02,689 --> 01:20:58,940 Slenderman 1995 01:21:05,630 --> 01:21:02,699 what were you saying Louise 1996 01:21:08,689 --> 01:21:05,640 oh um something that b was uh saying 1997 01:21:10,850 --> 01:21:08,699 actually made me think um 1998 01:21:13,430 --> 01:21:10,860 you know these ideas that something or 1999 01:21:14,630 --> 01:21:13,440 other has been with us for Millennia 2000 01:21:16,570 --> 01:21:14,640 um 2001 01:21:18,890 --> 01:21:16,580 this is like meant to 2002 01:21:21,350 --> 01:21:18,900 alludes some sort of continuity in human 2003 01:21:23,110 --> 01:21:21,360 culture or Human Society um history that 2004 01:21:25,250 --> 01:21:23,120 there's been some sort of outside 2005 01:21:26,390 --> 01:21:25,260 influence or force or whatever you call 2006 01:21:28,790 --> 01:21:26,400 it phenomena 2007 01:21:32,450 --> 01:21:28,800 which has been with us all that time but 2008 01:21:35,510 --> 01:21:32,460 um you know there's a danger of uh back 2009 01:21:38,270 --> 01:21:35,520 projecting from our current motifs and 2010 01:21:42,169 --> 01:21:38,280 frame like technology we think of 2011 01:21:44,330 --> 01:21:42,179 spaceships or UFOs as mechanical things 2012 01:21:46,430 --> 01:21:44,340 um and we sometimes forget that um and 2013 01:21:49,669 --> 01:21:46,440 this is something that Brian senti's has 2014 01:21:51,229 --> 01:21:49,679 also talked about is that um 2015 01:21:52,550 --> 01:21:51,239 we can't just assume that they were 2016 01:21:53,930 --> 01:21:52,560 being literal 2017 01:21:55,390 --> 01:21:53,940 um right they also had their own 2018 01:21:57,770 --> 01:21:55,400 allegorical 2019 01:21:59,930 --> 01:21:57,780 ways of speaking right and we have to be 2020 01:22:02,209 --> 01:21:59,940 sensitive to that as well 2021 01:22:04,189 --> 01:22:02,219 yeah I think uh Vancouver guy was like 2022 01:22:07,430 --> 01:22:04,199 slamming on his keyboard in the uh in 2023 01:22:08,630 --> 01:22:07,440 the chat while that's happening yes Jeff 2024 01:22:11,030 --> 01:22:08,640 you're welcome to jump on the stream 2025 01:22:14,689 --> 01:22:11,040 with us 2026 01:22:18,350 --> 01:22:16,130 um the Bible was not a really old 2027 01:22:20,990 --> 01:22:18,360 newspaper as I like to say 2028 01:22:24,169 --> 01:22:21,000 yeah and uh the translation piece is 2029 01:22:27,890 --> 01:22:24,179 very significant too like for example uh 2030 01:22:29,510 --> 01:22:27,900 descriptions in the Icelandic uh books 2031 01:22:31,550 --> 01:22:29,520 about that were written down about their 2032 01:22:33,530 --> 01:22:31,560 old uh religion and they described an 2033 01:22:36,169 --> 01:22:33,540 elves right and there's some controversy 2034 01:22:38,270 --> 01:22:36,179 about how that description is 2035 01:22:41,689 --> 01:22:38,280 more rendered into Modern English 2036 01:22:43,970 --> 01:22:41,699 because the word is uh lee suf that it 2037 01:22:47,510 --> 01:22:43,980 says they stay something more than the 2038 01:22:50,149 --> 01:22:47,520 Sun and then uh so a variety of fjords 2039 01:22:52,610 --> 01:22:50,159 are with that thing are mean shining so 2040 01:22:54,229 --> 01:22:52,620 they Shone brighter than the sun is 2041 01:22:56,030 --> 01:22:54,239 seemingly the actual description that we 2042 01:22:57,590 --> 01:22:56,040 have of what an elf is that's not how 2043 01:22:59,630 --> 01:22:57,600 they're represented anywhere 2044 01:23:00,950 --> 01:22:59,640 interesting and that's literally what 2045 01:23:02,450 --> 01:23:00,960 they call it said they look like like 2046 01:23:05,750 --> 01:23:02,460 the people who believed in them so like 2047 01:23:07,430 --> 01:23:05,760 our perception is totally you know 2048 01:23:09,169 --> 01:23:07,440 removed from the historical reality 2049 01:23:13,010 --> 01:23:09,179 right 2050 01:23:14,750 --> 01:23:13,020 so we have uh Michael Redmond backstage 2051 01:23:16,010 --> 01:23:14,760 um I actually

been listening 2108 01:26:07,970 --> 01:26:05,940 with interest uh I was able only to get 2109 01:26:10,010 --> 01:26:07,980 into the stream maybe 10-15 minutes ago 2110 01:26:14,090 --> 01:26:10,020 I was busy but I see that we're 2111 01:26:16,910 --> 01:26:14,100 discussing Angels which is uh I am well 2112 01:26:19,189 --> 01:26:16,920 acquainted with a uh Lutheran Minister 2113 01:26:21,590 --> 01:26:19,199 by the name of Ray boshay I don't know 2114 01:26:22,729 --> 01:26:21,600 if that is a name that's familiar to any 2115 01:26:24,709 --> 01:26:22,739 of you 2116 01:26:26,990 --> 01:26:24,719 um he is a big paranormal scholar and 2117 01:26:29,209 --> 01:26:27,000 has all kinds of published papers but 2118 01:26:32,590 --> 01:26:29,219 it's interesting to talk to Ray because 2119 01:26:35,990 --> 01:26:32,600 Rey is a conservative Orthodox Christian 2120 01:26:38,570 --> 01:26:36,000 who is of the school that thinks that 2121 01:26:40,270 --> 01:26:38,580 the entire UFO phenomenon is due to dark 2122 01:26:43,490 --> 01:26:40,280 Powers 2123 01:26:46,189 --> 01:26:43,500 right and this is a very intelligent man 2124 01:26:48,050 --> 01:26:46,199 he's this is not a superstitious man but 2125 01:26:49,370 --> 01:26:48,060 as I said he is a minister he's a man of 2126 01:26:51,290 --> 01:26:49,380 Faith 2127 01:26:55,010 --> 01:26:51,300 um and I just find this interesting 2128 01:26:57,770 --> 01:26:55,020 because uh uh I would personally also 2129 01:27:00,530 --> 01:26:57,780 add that possibility onto the list of 2130 01:27:01,910 --> 01:27:00,540 possibles in terms of talking about this 2131 01:27:05,270 --> 01:27:01,920 phenomenon 2132 01:27:06,950 --> 01:27:05,280 um I think it was uh Luis that said 2133 01:27:09,169 --> 01:27:06,960 um there's been some discussion about 2134 01:27:12,550 --> 01:27:09,179 presences being with the human race for 2135 01:27:15,530 --> 01:27:12,560 a very very long time well the religious 2136 01:27:18,290 --> 01:27:15,540 Traditions say exactly that 2137 01:27:20,450 --> 01:27:18,300 that there are good guy uh spirits and 2138 01:27:21,890 --> 01:27:20,460 there are bad guy spirits and they're 2139 01:27:25,250 --> 01:27:21,900 hanging around and getting involved in 2140 01:27:27,950 --> 01:27:25,260 our business so who knows all I can say 2141 01:27:30,229 --> 01:27:27,960 is that if I wanted to pull the wool 2142 01:27:31,970 --> 01:27:30,239 over the eyes of modern man 2143 01:27:34,669 --> 01:27:31,980 and I was some kind of spiritual 2144 01:27:37,070 --> 01:27:34,679 creature with an agenda uh showing up 2145 01:27:39,350 --> 01:27:37,080 looking highly technical highly 2146 01:27:42,050 --> 01:27:39,360 technological would be a great way to do 2147 01:27:44,510 --> 01:27:42,060 it and so I I think it's interesting 2148 01:27:47,030 --> 01:27:44,520 that um they're they're perceived as 2149 01:27:48,890 --> 01:27:47,040 negative or dark as you put it is there 2150 01:27:50,990 --> 01:27:48,900 a reason for that 2151 01:27:52,490 --> 01:27:51,000 um that yes there is 2152 01:27:54,290 --> 01:27:52,500 um 2153 01:27:56,270 --> 01:27:54,300 that requires a knowledge of the 2154 01:28:01,310 --> 01:27:56,280 Christian scriptures 2155 01:28:03,169 --> 01:28:01,320 the end times that uh the forces of 2156 01:28:05,990 --> 01:28:03,179 Darkness will seek to deceive the human 2157 01:28:07,930 --> 01:28:06,000 race into believing all kinds of wrong 2158 01:28:12,229 --> 01:28:07,940 things and harmful things 2159 01:28:16,850 --> 01:28:12,239 uh uh in the run-up to the return of 2160 01:28:19,930 --> 01:28:16,860 Christ and that therefore not only 2161 01:28:23,570 --> 01:28:19,940 um are the bad not only are the bad ETS 2162 01:28:26,750 --> 01:28:23,580 uh uh uh a sign of this but they also 2163 01:28:29,870 --> 01:28:26,760 are a sign that history is about to uh 2164 01:28:34,129 --> 01:28:29,880 move past history into whatever is that 2165 01:28:34,790 --> 01:28:34,139 great and final day of of eschatology 2166 01:28:37,070 --> 01:28:34,800 um 2167 01:28:39,830 --> 01:28:37,080 so if you buy that you buy that if you 2168 01:28:42,890 --> 01:28:39,840 don't you don't right I'm also I'm also 2169 01:28:44,149 --> 01:28:42,900 aware that that uh although Rey is a 2170 01:28:46,669 --> 01:28:44,159 Lutheran and therefore would be 2171 01:28:50,450 --> 01:28:46,679 considered to be a Christian within 2172 01:28:54,410 --> 01:28:50,460 normal limits uh people like Billy 2173 01:28:56,750 --> 01:28:54,420 Graham and others in the fever swap of 2174 01:28:59,570 --> 01:28:56,760 the Christian Evangelical movement also 2175 01:29:04,070 --> 01:28:59,580 make the same argument about about ETS 2176 01:29:07,430 --> 01:29:04,080 and about uh uh UFOs and such there's a 2177 01:29:09,129 --> 01:29:07,440 deception and uh the employer we in 2178 01:29:13,430 --> 01:29:09,139 trouble 2179 01:29:15,709 --> 01:29:13,440 yes it's an interesting uh yeah a point 2180 01:29:17,629 --> 01:29:15,719 um now like the idea of something being 2181 01:29:20,270 --> 01:29:17,639 with us throughout history that's 2182 01:29:22,490 --> 01:29:20,280 something that I personally can relate 2183 01:29:23,990 --> 01:29:22,500 to because like I said like sometimes 2184 01:29:25,610 --> 01:29:24,000 when I wake up five to ten seconds I 2185 01:29:28,370 --> 01:29:25,620 have hallucinations that's just the 2186 01:29:30,590 --> 01:29:28,380 medical condition maybe people and but 2187 01:29:32,870 --> 01:29:30,600 but getting into this community studying 2188 01:29:34,790 --> 01:29:32,880 it I see people and I keep on talking 2189 01:29:35,930 --> 01:29:34,800 about an observation and then an 2190 01:29:38,990 --> 01:29:35,940 interpretation 2191 01:29:41,149 --> 01:29:39,000 so many people I've seen have based not 2192 01:29:43,729 --> 01:29:41,159 only their world view but they're like 2193 01:29:47,270 --> 01:29:43,739 livelihood and their identity around 2194 01:29:49,910 --> 01:29:47,280 experiences that I have basically had 2195 01:29:51,229 --> 01:29:49,920 and I don't even think about them for 2196 01:29:52,669 --> 01:29:51,239 most of my life until I got involved in 2197 01:29:53,750 --> 01:29:52,679 this subject because it wasn't relevant 2198 01:29:55,850 --> 01:29:53,760 to me it was just like oh if I just said 2199 01:29:59,270 --> 01:29:55,860 whatever it doesn't matter how 2200 01:30:01,370 --> 01:29:59,280 throughout history would we like if I 2201 01:30:02,870 --> 01:30:01,380 was born 500 years ago I would assume 2202 01:30:04,189 --> 01:30:02,880 something was like communicating with me 2203 01:30:05,750 --> 01:30:04,199 it would be natural to assume that 2204 01:30:07,970 --> 01:30:05,760 because there was a there's no plausible 2205 01:30:10,129 --> 01:30:07,980 explanation alternative right that's the 2206 01:30:12,290 --> 01:30:10,139 only worldview I have how would we be 2207 01:30:14,090 --> 01:30:12,300 able knowing that we're in a world where 2208 01:30:16,490 --> 01:30:14,100 the human mind can do things like that 2209 01:30:18,669 --> 01:30:16,500 how can we differentiate between those 2210 01:30:23,390 --> 01:30:18,679 things and these things in history that 2211 01:30:28,970 --> 01:30:26,270 um that's that's an interesting topic 2212 01:30:30,169 --> 01:30:28,980 for discussion I don't know but as 2213 01:30:33,770 --> 01:30:30,179 you're aware 2214 01:30:35,570 --> 01:30:33,780 um valet and Magonia basically argues 2215 01:30:37,810 --> 01:30:35,580 that the gods and goddesses of of 2216 01:30:41,570 --> 01:30:37,820 antique times 2217 01:30:45,410 --> 01:30:41,580 are the Angels and Saints of later times 2218 01:30:47,990 --> 01:30:45,420 are the fairies and elves of of the 2219 01:30:50,750 --> 01:30:48,000 Catholic mythology and now we have ETS 2220 01:30:53,750 --> 01:30:50,760 and it's all the same thing it's just 2221 01:30:57,290 --> 01:30:53,760 how we perceive them what we perceive 2222 01:31:00,169 --> 01:30:57,300 them to be is very mediated by culture 2223 01:31:02,750 --> 01:31:00,179 so in the modern times in our in our in 2224 01:31:05,350 --> 01:31:02,760 our technological times uh the 2225 01:31:09,229 --> 01:31:05,360 scientific materialistic technological 2226 01:31:12,590 --> 01:31:09,239 we see spaceships and critters from 2227 01:31:16,070 --> 01:31:12,600 other planets or galaxies but it's the 2228 01:31:18,169 --> 01:31:16,080 same presence having different forms so 2229 01:31:19,850 --> 01:31:18,179 500 years ago Campbell 2230 01:31:22,729 --> 01:31:19,860 uh depending on where you were in the 2231 01:31:25,010 --> 01:31:22,739 world but let's say you were in Europe 2232 01:31:28,310 --> 01:31:25,020 um you would be thinking that you were 2233 01:31:30,229 --> 01:31:28,320 having Angelic visitations or or or 2234 01:31:32,510 --> 01:31:30,239 Saints were appearing to you or 2235 01:31:34,490 --> 01:31:32,520 something like that because you would be 2236 01:31:36,649 --> 01:31:34,500 living 500 years ago in either a 2237 01:31:38,930 --> 01:31:36,659 Catholic or a Protestant culture and 2238 01:31:42,050 --> 01:31:38,940 that would have been in in both those 2239 01:31:43,669 --> 01:31:42,060 cases the modality of understanding such 2240 01:31:46,010 --> 01:31:43,679 an experience 2241 01:31:49,370 --> 01:31:46,020 so I mean I I 2242 01:31:52,370 --> 01:31:49,380 tend to think that the way is on to 2243 01:31:54,169 --> 01:31:52,380 something in this discussion 2244 01:31:55,430 --> 01:31:54,179 um and that we have in fact that there 2245 01:31:58,010 --> 01:31:55,440 has been 2246 01:32:00,050 --> 01:31:58,020 something there for as long as we have 2247 01:32:02,450 --> 01:32:00,060 human history and human culture 2248 01:32:04,070 --> 01:32:02,460 and it's going to be what that something 2249 01:32:05,810 --> 01:32:04,080 is it's one of the reasons we're all 2250 01:32:07,990 --> 01:32:05,820 sitting around talking to try to figure 2251 01:32:12,290 --> 01:32:08,000 it out aren't we 2252 01:32:15,050 --> 01:32:12,300 and isn't it fun yes 2253 01:32:17,090 --> 01:32:15,060 yes it's it's a pit with no bottom 2254 01:32:19,030 --> 01:32:17,100 uh 2255 01:32:23,390 --> 01:32:19,040 maybe 2256 01:32:25,550 --> 01:32:23,400 would you look just quickly relate to us 2257 01:32:27,970 --> 01:32:25,560 how did you get interested in this 2258 01:32:31,430 --> 01:32:27,980 subject initially 2259 01:32:34,790 --> 01:32:31,440 well that's a big question because uh 2260 01:32:37,490 --> 01:32:34,800 when you say this subject it would 2261 01:32:39,350 --> 01:32:37,500 actually be a matter of a plural uh 2262 01:32:40,490 --> 01:32:39,360 situation 2263 01:32:43,070 --> 01:32:40,500 um 2264 01:32:45,649 --> 01:32:43,080 I've always had 2265 01:32:47,810 --> 01:32:45,659 odd experiences 2266 01:32:49,370 --> 01:32:47,820 um going back to childhood 2267 01:32:51,470 --> 01:32:49,380 um friends of mine who say they're 2268 01:32:53,629 --> 01:32:51,480 psychics say that I am psychic I don't 2269 01:32:56,590 --> 01:32:53,639 know what that means so I make no such 2270 01:33:00,530 --> 01:32:56,600 claim It's just sometimes I know stuff 2271 01:33:02,750 --> 01:33:00,540 sometimes I imagine stuff 2272 01:33:04,610 --> 01:33:02,760 and it all happens to work out by 2273 01:33:06,290 --> 01:33:04,620 synchronicity to be 2274 01:33:08,930 --> 01:33:06,300 somehow real 2275 01:33:12,229 --> 01:33:08,940 uh so there was that 2276 01:33:14,350 --> 01:33:12,239 um then um as I posted before out of the 2277 01:33:18,050 --> 01:33:14,360 Clear Blue Sky I would consider myself 2278 01:33:19,370 --> 01:33:18,060 fairly conventional in lifestyle and 2279 01:33:21,169 --> 01:33:19,380 life story 2280 01:33:24,290 --> 01:33:21,179 except that 2281 01:33:26,990 --> 01:33:24,300 um One Fine Day in 1979 my wife and I 2282 01:33:30,770 --> 01:33:27,000 are driving back from an event that we 2283 01:33:33,010 --> 01:33:30,780 had attended and we saw not one UFO but 2284 01:33:37,189 --> 01:33:33,020 two UFOs 2285 01:33:39,290 --> 01:33:37,199 uh it was a very dramatic experience it 2286 01:33:43,310 --> 01:33:39,300 was a sighting it was not an objection 2287 01:33:45,290 --> 01:33:43,320 it was not there was no ATS involved it 2288 01:33:46,870 --> 01:33:45,300 was these these astonishing triangular 2289 01:33:51,229 --> 01:33:46,880 things in the sky 2290 01:33:52,669 --> 01:33:51,239 and uh uh it was 1979 I didn't know what 2291 01:33:54,830 --> 01:33:52,679 to do about this 2292 01:33:56,810 --> 01:33:54,840 uh was this your first time seeing 2293 01:34:00,050 --> 01:33:56,820 something like this yes something like 2294 01:34:02,390 --> 01:34:00,060 that yes yeah absolutely absolutely and 2295 01:34:05,629 --> 01:34:02,400 I I'd have to say that Loretta and I 2296 01:34:06,770 --> 01:34:05,639 have both grown up within 25 miles of 2297 01:34:09,950 --> 01:34:06,780 Manhattan 2298 01:34:14,149 --> 01:34:09,960 uh there are three major airports we 2299 01:34:16,729 --> 01:34:14,159 have seen all manner of flying craft in 2300 01:34:19,850 --> 01:34:16,739 all seasons of the Year all weather 2301 01:34:22,010 --> 01:34:19,860 conditions at all times of day and 2302 01:34:24,110 --> 01:34:22,020 believe me I have not seen anything like 2303 01:34:25,970 --> 01:34:24,120 that before or since 2304 01:34:28,010 --> 01:34:25,980 and it was sufficient enough that I 2305 01:34:30,709 --> 01:34:28,020 could stop the car and get out 2306 01:34:33,290 --> 01:34:30,719 and watch it go actually two of them 2307 01:34:37,010 --> 01:34:33,300 because it was one after the other and 2308 01:34:39,470 --> 01:34:37,020 uh got back in the car and with my good 2309 01:34:42,110 --> 01:34:39,480 journalistic training I said to my wife 2310 01:34:44,330 --> 01:34:42,120 I said we're not talking about this now 2311 01:34:45,830 --> 01:34:44,340 so we drove home in silence and I got 2312 01:34:47,810 --> 01:34:45,840 home in silence I said here's what we're 2313 01:34:49,370 --> 01:34:47,820 going to do I'm going in this room 2314 01:34:52,149 --> 01:34:49,380 you're going in that room and we're 2315 01:34:54,830 --> 01:34:52,159 going to write down what we saw 2316 01:34:58,250 --> 01:34:54,840 right I did this in order to avoid any 2317 01:35:00,590 --> 01:34:58,260 sort of cross-contamination right so I 2318 01:35:02,330 --> 01:35:00,600 did my thing she did her thing then we 2319 01:35:04,090 --> 01:35:02,340 got together and compared notes and we 2320 01:35:07,149 --> 01:35:04,100 whatever it was we saw the same thing 2321 01:35:13,810 --> 01:35:07,159 and and I was such a Boy Scout 2322 01:35:19,550 --> 01:35:16,790 I called the local police and I 2323 01:35:21,350 --> 01:35:19,560 explained to the officer is anybody 2324 01:35:23,330 --> 01:35:21,360 talking about strange lights in the sky 2325 01:35:25,370 --> 01:35:23,340 and I could tell that he was mildly 2326 01:35:27,050 --> 01:35:25,380 amused but very professional and 2327 01:35:29,030 --> 01:35:27,060 courteous and he said no they had been 2328 01:35:32,750 --> 01:35:29,040 receiving no reports 2329 01:35:36,290 --> 01:35:32,760 I said okay thank you uh the next day I 2330 01:35:38,570 --> 01:35:36,300 talked to the aviation beat reporter at 2331 01:35:40,669 --> 01:35:38,580 the major New Jersey newspaper 2332 01:35:41,930 --> 01:35:40,679 and said I want to speak to somebody at 2333 01:35:44,810 --> 01:35:41,940 Newark Airport 2334 01:35:46,910 --> 01:35:44,820 can you do that he said yes 2335 01:35:49,910 --> 01:35:46,920 so I did speak to a gentleman at the 2336 01:35:51,350 --> 01:35:49,920 Newark Airport and after he was 2337 01:35:52,729 --> 01:35:51,360 reassured that there would be no 2338 01:35:56,330 --> 01:35:52,739 publicity 2339 01:35:57,770 --> 01:35:56,340 this was a strictly private inquiry he 2340 01:35:59,810 --> 01:35:57,780 checked 2341 01:36:02,450 --> 01:35:59,820 what there was to check and there was 2342 01:36:05,030 --> 01:36:02,460 nothing to account for what we saw in 2343 01:36:07,310 --> 01:36:05,040 the the data present at what is now 2344 01:36:10,189 --> 01:36:07,320 Newark Liberty International but in 2345 01:36:11,930 --> 01:36:10,199 those days was simply Newark airport so 2346 01:36:14,810 --> 01:36:11,940 then I said to myself next stop would be 2347 01:36:18,110 --> 01:36:14,820 McGuire Air Force Base which is about 60 2348 01:36:19,970 --> 01:36:18,120 miles Southwest of this but I was not so 2349 01:36:21,350 --> 01:36:19,980 naive as to think that I could call up 2350 01:36:23,689 --> 01:36:21,360 the Air Force 2351 01:36:27,050 --> 01:36:23,699 and they would proceed to answer these 2352 01:36:30,169 --> 01:36:27,060 questions so I let it I Let It Go 2353 01:36:33,410 --> 01:36:30,179 um the Ada should be reporter uh Tim Tim 2354 01:36:35,390 --> 01:36:33,420 O'Brien Heaven rest his soul great guy 2355 01:36:37,430 --> 01:36:35,400 um he was the one who turned me on to 2356 01:36:39,590 --> 01:36:37,440 the existence of mufon 2357 01:36:42,350 --> 01:36:39,600 now this is pre-digital this is 2358 01:36:45,709 --> 01:36:42,360 pre-everything I had to find a meeting I 2359 01:36:47,870 --> 01:36:45,719 went to the meeting and never went back 2360 01:36:52,129 --> 01:36:47,880 all right all right UFO people right 2361 01:36:54,050 --> 01:36:52,139 yeah I said I did I I don't think we're 2362 01:36:56,030 --> 01:36:54,060 going to be doing this at all so that's 2363 01:36:59,090 --> 01:36:56,040 a bit of the story but I've had various 2364 01:37:01,250 --> 01:36:59,100 things happen and at the same time I 2365 01:37:04,610 --> 01:37:01,260 have remained a I think a pretty 2366 01:37:07,070 --> 01:37:04,620 committed rationalist a pretty committed 2367 01:37:08,330 --> 01:37:07,080 uh critical thinker evidence-based 2368 01:37:11,689 --> 01:37:08,340 person 2369 01:37:16,430 --> 01:37:11,699 and I've never as I said gotten on to 2370 01:37:19,250 --> 01:37:16,440 any uh uh bandwagon with 2371 01:37:23,149 --> 01:37:19,260 this subject but it has been fascinating 2372 01:37:25,729 --> 01:37:23,159 to meet people to read to study to watch 2373 01:37:28,010 --> 01:37:25,739 uh over the years everything that that 2374 01:37:29,629 --> 01:37:28,020 happened but I really only got into this 2375 01:37:33,110 --> 01:37:29,639 heavily 2376 01:37:35,030 --> 01:37:33,120 um after the famous uh Chicago O'Hare 2377 01:37:38,570 --> 01:37:35,040 Airport sighting that was reported on 2378 01:37:41,629 --> 01:37:38,580 CNN in 2006 when I said all right that's 2379 01:37:42,709 --> 01:37:41,639 all I need to know more and so I've been 2380 01:37:46,250 --> 01:37:42,719 very 2381 01:37:49,010 --> 01:37:46,260 uh plugged in ever since 2006. so that's 2382 01:37:51,110 --> 01:37:49,020 the story yeah uh 2383 01:37:52,910 --> 01:37:51,120 clarifying question about your sighting 2384 01:37:55,370 --> 01:37:52,920 were they triangles or are they v-shaped 2385 01:37:57,110 --> 01:37:55,380 they were triangles okay just they were 2386 01:37:59,510 --> 01:37:57,120 they were they were they were perfect 2387 01:38:02,629 --> 01:37:59,520 equilateral triangles with lights at the 2388 01:38:05,209 --> 01:38:02,639 apices at the at the at the points 2389 01:38:08,030 --> 01:38:05,219 um their Starshine could not be seen 2390 01:38:10,129 --> 01:38:08,040 through the Bodies Okay meaning that's 2391 01:38:12,129 --> 01:38:10,139 driving the uh the Stormville martians 2392 01:38:14,930 --> 01:38:12,139 then yeah yeah 2393 01:38:16,790 --> 01:38:14,940 and and they were I and they were the 2394 01:38:18,649 --> 01:38:16,800 size of my fist at the length of my arm 2395 01:38:21,530 --> 01:38:18,659 they were they were large 2396 01:38:24,649 --> 01:38:21,540 so they were either close or enormous 2397 01:38:27,050 --> 01:38:24,659 because obviously yeah it's 2398 01:38:29,330 --> 01:38:27,060 um visual conditions for this sighting 2399 01:38:32,810 --> 01:38:29,340 were very good 2400 01:38:35,090 --> 01:38:32,820 um uh and I that so so that's it I saw 2401 01:38:37,490 --> 01:38:35,100 that and that's all I've ever seen yeah 2402 01:38:40,370 --> 01:38:37,500 entering in terms of DTS and such when 2403 01:38:47,590 --> 01:38:40,380 was that you might have mentioned in 2404 01:38:54,470 --> 01:38:52,010 Belgian wave hmm yeah um I've seen the 2405 01:38:57,290 --> 01:38:54,480 belt the so-called Belgian pictures and 2406 01:38:59,270 --> 01:38:57,300 that isn't what I saw right right the 2407 01:39:00,890 --> 01:38:59,280 Belgian wave pictures whatever they were 2408 01:39:02,990 --> 01:39:00,900 that whether they're true or false and I 2409 01:39:04,610 --> 01:39:03,000 know about the controversy 2410 01:39:07,189 --> 01:39:04,620 um that was not what I saw what I saw 2411 01:39:09,950 --> 01:39:07,199 was far more geometrical meaning it 2412 01:39:13,129 --> 01:39:09,960 looked like hard lines and there were 2413 01:39:15,770 --> 01:39:13,139 nice bright as I said points at the 2414 01:39:18,669 --> 01:39:15,780 apices uh uh uh but they they weren't 2415 01:39:21,050 --> 01:39:18,679 colored they were white whitish bluish 2416 01:39:23,450 --> 01:39:21,060 uh in in color 2417 01:39:25,850 --> 01:39:23,460 it wasn't that uh 2418 01:39:27,530 --> 01:39:25,860 that rainbow lights that that the 2419 01:39:30,830 --> 01:39:27,540 belgians the Belgian thinks apparently 2420 01:39:36,110 --> 01:39:33,830 description because you clearly have an 2421 01:39:38,689 --> 01:39:36,120 observation of you know what you're 2422 01:39:40,430 --> 01:39:38,699 describing and a significant number of 2423 01:39:42,950 --> 01:39:40,440 people who I've talked to who are in 2424 01:39:45,830 --> 01:39:42,960 this sort of middle uh space that we 2425 01:39:47,810 --> 01:39:45,840 occupy a number of people like uh Jeff 2426 01:39:51,350 --> 01:39:47,820 from strange Rock Recon 2427 01:39:54,290 --> 01:39:51,360 um Steve long they have all seen made an 2428 01:39:56,270 --> 01:39:54,300 observation of oh yeah the black 2429 01:39:58,010 --> 01:39:56,280 triangles Dr Massimo theater Rani our 2430 01:40:00,709 --> 01:39:58,020 first guest he talked in detail about 2431 01:40:04,610 --> 01:40:00,719 how he saw an exact same type of object 2432 01:40:06,410 --> 01:40:04,620 coming come above it so you know it 2433 01:40:07,850 --> 01:40:06,420 makes me wonder about things and uh 2434 01:40:09,350 --> 01:40:07,860 another subject we're going to get into 2435 01:40:12,050 --> 01:40:09,360 actually if we have time was the 2436 01:40:14,330 --> 01:40:12,060 launching of the UAP study group and uh 2437 01:40:17,030 --> 01:40:14,340 just very quickly the top researcher on 2438 01:40:19,010 --> 01:40:17,040 UAP study group uh John Greenwald Jr 2439 01:40:21,830 --> 01:40:19,020 from the black hole successfully foyed 2440 01:40:23,930 --> 01:40:21,840 internal memos from that researcher and 2441 01:40:26,689 --> 01:40:23,940 that researcher and his internal memos 2442 01:40:29,629 --> 01:40:26,699 has uh referenced directly something 2443 01:40:31,610 --> 01:40:29,639 called skirmians which are lab 2444 01:40:34,550 --> 01:40:31,620 reproducible fall lightning phenomena 2445 01:40:36,890 --> 01:40:34,560 that form geometric triangular shapes 2446 01:40:38,810 --> 01:40:36,900 and the UK Ministry of Defense secret 2447 01:40:40,310 --> 01:40:38,820 study on this subject actually said they 2448 01:40:41,450 --> 01:40:40,320 think that that's what people are seeing 2449 01:40:43,430 --> 01:40:41,460 in the atmosphere they think that the 2450 01:40:45,470 --> 01:40:43,440 black triangles are real and that they 2451 01:40:48,470 --> 01:40:45,480 are this electromagnetic thing and the 2452 01:40:50,450 --> 01:40:48,480 UAP study group from NASA guy is citing 2453 01:40:52,070 --> 01:40:50,460 those in his internal memos what do you 2454 01:40:53,689 --> 01:40:52,080 think that that is a possible 2455 01:40:56,030 --> 01:40:53,699 explanation for what you saw or do you 2456 01:40:57,830 --> 01:40:56,040 think that that's all no no absolutely 2457 01:41:00,830 --> 01:40:57,840 that is absolutely a possible 2458 01:41:03,350 --> 01:41:00,840 explanation of what I saw meaning if if 2459 01:41:06,350 --> 01:41:03,360 if proof could be presented to me 2460 01:41:08,629 --> 01:41:06,360 tomorrow that this would scare me on or 2461 01:41:11,510 --> 01:41:08,639 that this was some Advanced Tech secret 2462 01:41:13,370 --> 01:41:11,520 Tech that sort of thing and and I I 2463 01:41:15,850 --> 01:41:13,380 would I would accept that as explaining 2464 01:41:18,590 --> 01:41:15,860 the experience 2465 01:41:21,350 --> 01:41:18,600 that is an amazing thing to hear I think 2466 01:41:23,270 --> 01:41:21,360 that everybody should be taking notes on 2467 01:41:25,669 --> 01:41:23,280 you're from you on how people should 2468 01:41:27,050 --> 01:41:25,679 approach this phenomenon absolutely this 2469 01:41:30,709 --> 01:41:27,060 is why we're all so happy you're here 2470 01:41:35,750 --> 01:41:33,229 when you think back to the sighting we 2471 01:41:38,390 --> 01:41:35,760 had a couple questions from the audience 2472 01:41:39,770 --> 01:41:38,400 um was there sound and how fast did it 2473 01:41:41,390 --> 01:41:39,780 seem to be moving 2474 01:41:43,250 --> 01:41:41,400 um there was no it was soundless which 2475 01:41:45,649 --> 01:41:43,260 was one of the Eerie things 2476 01:41:47,570 --> 01:41:45,659 should you see this big thing up there 2477 01:41:49,850 --> 01:41:47,580 and and it's really to be completely 2478 01:41:52,070 --> 01:41:49,860 soundless although when I say Eerie it 2479 01:41:55,790 --> 01:41:52,080 is eeril only in retrospect 2480 01:41:57,530 --> 01:41:55,800 um we felt no fear or alarm in this 2481 01:42:00,649 --> 01:41:57,540 experience we were basically kind of 2482 01:42:02,810 --> 01:42:00,659 awestruck right to watch it actually all 2483 01:42:05,090 --> 01:42:02,820 right uh we were all struck only later 2484 01:42:07,010 --> 01:42:05,100 did I wonder myself well you know could 2485 01:42:09,109 --> 01:42:07,020 that could could there be could there 2486 01:42:11,629 --> 01:42:09,119 have been danger there but there wasn't 2487 01:42:13,669 --> 01:42:11,639 in the experience I'm just saying it was 2488 01:42:17,629 --> 01:42:13,679 completely silent 2489 01:42:19,729 --> 01:42:17,639 um and let me see uh well the other 2490 01:42:23,209 --> 01:42:19,739 night was it 2491 01:42:25,870 --> 01:42:23,219 um it was um a very clear fall night 2492 01:42:28,189 --> 01:42:25,880 right you know very very Crystal Clear 2493 01:42:31,070 --> 01:42:28,199 fall night 2494 01:42:33,890 --> 01:42:31,080 um I went back in fact and put it 2495 01:42:35,450 --> 01:42:33,900 together what study I did at the time 2496 01:42:37,910 --> 01:42:35,460 and I checked all the weather factors 2497 01:42:39,770 --> 01:42:37,920 and I got that documented and it was you 2498 01:42:41,149 --> 01:42:39,780 know perfectly clear lovely lovely fall 2499 01:42:44,270 --> 01:42:41,159 night 2500 01:42:45,410 --> 01:42:44,280 um you asked about the speed that was 2501 01:42:49,930 --> 01:42:45,420 one of the things that I've never 2502 01:42:53,149 --> 01:42:49,940 forgotten um they moved it seemed to me 2503 01:42:55,550 --> 01:42:53,159 surprisingly slowly and it was the 2504 01:42:57,350 --> 01:42:55,560 quality of the movement that I've never 2505 01:43:00,649 --> 01:42:57,360 seen before since 2506 01:43:02,209 --> 01:43:00,659 they didn't seem to be so much flying as 2507 01:43:04,930 --> 01:43:02,219 floating 2508 01:43:07,490 --> 01:43:04,940 so I've also wondered occasionally about 2509 01:43:10,189 --> 01:43:07,500 uh uh 2510 01:43:12,290 --> 01:43:10,199 the possibility of some kind of 2511 01:43:16,310 --> 01:43:12,300 sophisticated imagery 2512 01:43:20,149 --> 01:43:16,320 happening as opposed to a solid object 2513 01:43:23,090 --> 01:43:20,159 um there was a floating gliding quality 2514 01:43:25,550 --> 01:43:23,100 to the motion that was very strange and 2515 01:43:31,090 --> 01:43:25,560 again again on uh unknown to me before 2516 01:43:34,790 --> 01:43:31,100 or since uh uh but that's all it can say 2517 01:43:37,669 --> 01:43:34,800 uh uh that it happened once 2518 01:43:40,790 --> 01:43:37,679 um I would certainly be open to having 2519 01:43:44,450 --> 01:43:40,800 such an experience again uh if anybody 2520 01:43:47,209 --> 01:43:44,460 out there is listening ho ho ho but I I 2521 01:43:49,129 --> 01:43:47,219 don't pursue these things I mean I'm I'm 2522 01:43:52,550 --> 01:43:49,139 different from people that I've known in 2523 01:43:54,050 --> 01:43:52,560 so far as I don't go searching out in 2524 01:43:57,410 --> 01:43:54,060 the fields in the middle of the night to 2525 01:43:58,090 --> 01:43:57,420 see a UFO or or UAP which I think is 2526 01:43:59,209 --> 01:43:58,100 silly 2527 01:44:02,510 --> 01:43:59,219 [Music] 2528 01:44:04,790 --> 01:44:02,520 um but you know that's the story 2529 01:44:07,250 --> 01:44:04,800 where exactly did it happen can you like 2530 01:44:10,250 --> 01:44:07,260 maybe we can reconstruct on Google Maps 2531 01:44:13,430 --> 01:44:10,260 like where it is I actually I actually 2532 01:44:15,770 --> 01:44:13,440 have have the latitude longitude 2533 01:44:18,830 --> 01:44:15,780 um I can give you that 2534 01:44:21,530 --> 01:44:18,840 um Luis what I've done is I've created a 2535 01:44:23,030 --> 01:44:21,540 thread on UFO Twitter that talks about 2536 01:44:24,770 --> 01:44:23,040 this and it'll give you latitude 2537 01:44:27,410 --> 01:44:24,780 longitude now simply send it to your 2538 01:44:29,330 --> 01:44:27,420 Twitter and it's as I said it's it's 2539 01:44:30,890 --> 01:44:29,340 it's it's open anybody who wants to 2540 01:44:34,850 --> 01:44:30,900 share it can share it there's nothing 2541 01:44:39,370 --> 01:44:34,860 confidential in it I think it's a thread 2542 01:44:42,350 --> 01:44:39,380 of maybe 15 to 20 2543 01:44:44,689 --> 01:44:42,360 items and uh 2544 01:44:46,490 --> 01:44:44,699 did you try to like document what you 2545 01:44:48,709 --> 01:44:46,500 saw like immediately after like when you 2546 01:44:51,770 --> 01:44:48,719 got them maybe you wrote it down see yes 2547 01:44:54,709 --> 01:44:51,780 yes okay yeah yeah 2548 01:44:58,370 --> 01:44:54,719 um um my background is in journalism 2549 01:45:03,229 --> 01:44:58,380 so I I have a uh that's what I naturally 2550 01:45:09,470 --> 01:45:05,930 so I mean I just I did that but did I 2551 01:45:12,649 --> 01:45:09,480 report it to move on no beyond beyond 2552 01:45:15,350 --> 01:45:12,659 calling the cops I did not pursue 2553 01:45:19,729 --> 01:45:15,360 um any follow-up from any 2554 01:45:21,350 --> 01:45:19,739 on any basis of this uh uh there also 2555 01:45:24,950 --> 01:45:21,360 were no reports 2556 01:45:27,290 --> 01:45:24,960 of uh this was a densely uh densely 2557 01:45:29,930 --> 01:45:27,300 congested populated area of Northern New 2558 01:45:31,250 --> 01:45:29,940 Jersey I said within 25 miles of New 2559 01:45:32,290 --> 01:45:31,260 York 2560 01:45:34,970 --> 01:45:32,300 um 2561 01:45:37,790 --> 01:45:34,980 in theory what was up there should have 2562 01:45:39,770 --> 01:45:37,800 been visible to thousands and thousands 2563 01:45:43,689 --> 01:45:39,780 of people right well there were no 2564 01:45:49,129 --> 01:45:46,430 in the aftermath of that night 2565 01:45:50,450 --> 01:45:49,139 was it was it a very late time of night 2566 01:45:52,970 --> 01:45:50,460 or was it like eight o'clock or 2567 01:45:54,649 --> 01:45:52,980 something it was about 11 o'clock oh 2568 01:45:57,229 --> 01:45:54,659 okay so it's not even like it was at 2569 01:45:59,870 --> 01:45:57,239 some crazy time it was late you know 2570 01:46:01,370 --> 01:45:59,880 yeah well you you have to tag Us in this 2571 01:46:02,750 --> 01:46:01,380 thread because I want to know more it 2572 01:46:05,390 --> 01:46:02,760 seems like everybody in the chat wants 2573 01:46:08,990 --> 01:46:05,400 to know more too it sounds like the 2574 01:46:11,149 --> 01:46:09,000 um there is there is some humor here all 2575 01:46:12,709 --> 01:46:11,159 right there there always is 2576 01:46:14,890 --> 01:46:12,719 um it's a long story but I happen to 2577 01:46:19,729 --> 01:46:14,900 have known the poet Alan Ginsberg well 2578 01:46:21,530 --> 01:46:19,739 and Loretta um yeah my wife and I my 2579 01:46:24,970 --> 01:46:21,540 wife and I had actually been to a poetry 2580 01:46:27,590 --> 01:46:24,980 reading that Alan gave excuse me 2581 01:46:31,010 --> 01:46:27,600 in Morris County New Jersey and we were 2582 01:46:33,890 --> 01:46:31,020 coming back from the poetry reading so I 2583 01:46:35,570 --> 01:46:33,900 I I I dropped him a note later that they 2584 01:46:37,970 --> 01:46:35,580 told them the poetry reading had so 2585 01:46:40,129 --> 01:46:37,980 cracked my brain that I had this 2586 01:46:43,870 --> 01:46:40,139 Visionary ecstatic experience in the 2587 01:46:46,250 --> 01:46:43,880 aftermath and he laughed oh my God 2588 01:46:48,290 --> 01:46:46,260 he did he left it 2589 01:46:50,090 --> 01:46:48,300 um uh but the but if you want to talk 2590 01:46:52,850 --> 01:46:50,100 about odd 2591 01:46:54,350 --> 01:46:52,860 um I've sometimes wondered if there 2592 01:46:56,870 --> 01:46:54,360 could not have been something going on 2593 01:46:59,330 --> 01:46:56,880 because he was doing it Allen at that 2594 01:47:06,129 --> 01:46:59,340 time was doing uh chance 2595 01:47:12,430 --> 01:47:10,729 a lot of that program that night was him 2596 01:47:15,410 --> 01:47:12,440 with an harmonian 2597 01:47:17,390 --> 01:47:15,420 him with a harmonium chanting the poems 2598 01:47:20,030 --> 01:47:17,400 of William Blake and if you're gonna see 2599 01:47:21,290 --> 01:47:20,040 angels dancing in the skies Blake is 2600 01:47:26,530 --> 01:47:21,300 perfect 2601 01:47:30,109 --> 01:47:26,540 teed up for a psychedelics yeah 2602 01:47:32,450 --> 01:47:30,119 yeah exactly exactly psychedelic 2603 01:47:34,010 --> 01:47:32,460 experience without psychedelics 2604 01:47:35,209 --> 01:47:34,020 um but that's the only I've often 2605 01:47:38,870 --> 01:47:35,219 wondered 2606 01:47:41,750 --> 01:47:38,880 just out of curiosity if there was any 2607 01:47:43,970 --> 01:47:41,760 precipitating anything that came away 2608 01:47:45,609 --> 01:47:43,980 from the experience of spending the 2609 01:47:48,169 --> 01:47:45,619 better part of an hour or whatever 2610 01:47:50,570 --> 01:47:48,179 getting into getting into

01:48:11,639 no okay when um when the stories were 2620 01:48:14,450 --> 01:48:13,320 coming out about the Hudson Valley 2621 01:48:17,330 --> 01:48:14,460 sightings 2622 01:48:19,129 --> 01:48:17,340
