kind of 53 00:03:34,850 --> 00:03:32,280 touch on where we're all at like what 54 00:03:37,430 --> 00:03:34,860 what all our takes are on UFOs and 55 00:03:39,290 --> 00:03:37,440 ufology and eventually disclosure to but 56 00:03:41,509 --> 00:03:39,300 I don't want to say what are UFOs 57 00:03:44,210 --> 00:03:41,519 because that's kind of like saying in my 58 00:03:46,009 --> 00:03:44,220 opinion where I lost socks it's a bit of 59 00:03:48,530 --> 00:03:46,019 a similar question 60 00:03:50,809 --> 00:03:48,540 but that kind of brings me to it and um 61 00:03:53,449 --> 00:03:50,819 I want to talk about what ufology is to 62 00:03:55,789 --> 00:03:53,459 each of you and to me and 63 00:04:00,649 --> 00:03:55,799 kind of more interestingly why is 64 00:04:03,890 --> 00:04:00,659 ufology why is there a ufology right so 65 00:04:06,830 --> 00:04:03,900 I'm going to kick that off so what and 66 00:04:08,830 --> 00:04:06,840 why is ufology Campbell 67 00:04:11,210 --> 00:04:08,840 yeah well ufology 68 00:04:15,470 --> 00:04:11,220 uh coming off the top of my head here 69 00:04:18,110 --> 00:04:15,480 it's the study of UFOs uh as a subject 70 00:04:21,890 --> 00:04:18,120 if we look at the most recent article by 71 00:04:24,350 --> 00:04:21,900 Mick West in what is that paper the New 72 00:04:27,909 --> 00:04:24,360 York Post I believe he published yeah 73 00:04:35,450 --> 00:04:32,350 ufology as the study of UFOs as 74 00:04:36,530 --> 00:04:35,460 extraterrestrial objects or craft or 75 00:04:38,450 --> 00:04:36,540 whatever 76 00:04:41,570 --> 00:04:38,460 um I thought that was interesting it 77 00:04:43,730 --> 00:04:41,580 sort of refines it uh also um a lot of 78 00:04:45,950 --> 00:04:43,740 people who study UFOs would be upset 79 00:04:47,629 --> 00:04:45,960 with that because it leaves out the 80 00:04:49,310 --> 00:04:47,639 humans that are interdimensional 81 00:04:50,450 --> 00:04:49,320 visiting us and the time traveling 82 00:04:53,270 --> 00:04:50,460 humans you know it's not just 83 00:04:55,430 --> 00:04:53,280 extraterrestrials here right sure 84 00:04:57,409 --> 00:04:55,440 um so uh but you know generally speaking 85 00:05:00,950 --> 00:04:57,419 I think ufology is like the study of 86 00:05:02,330 --> 00:05:00,960 this distinct category of object kind of 87 00:05:05,210 --> 00:05:02,340 in line with what Mick was saying like 88 00:05:07,790 --> 00:05:05,220 that people have been reporting seeing 89 00:05:09,110 --> 00:05:07,800 for decades and decades now 90 00:05:12,290 --> 00:05:09,120 um yeah what about you Leah what do you 91 00:05:14,210 --> 00:05:12,300 think of you know um oh man there's so 92 00:05:16,790 --> 00:05:14,220 much I could say uh I'm always reminded 93 00:05:19,249 --> 00:05:16,800 of um 94 00:05:21,350 --> 00:05:19,259 Noam Chomsky talking about the frizz 95 00:05:23,390 --> 00:05:21,360 support our troops and this idea that 96 00:05:25,930 --> 00:05:23,400 that phrase itself well no I'm gonna get 97 00:05:29,270 --> 00:05:25,940 there Nick oh no I'm right calm down 98 00:05:31,670 --> 00:05:29,280 everyone's everyone loves your shirt man 99 00:05:33,650 --> 00:05:31,680 yeah people are yeah you were you were 100 00:05:35,270 --> 00:05:33,660 Dressed to Kill for the part 101 00:05:37,010 --> 00:05:35,280 um but like I I 102 00:05:38,270 --> 00:05:37,020 no people are making fun of you they 103 00:05:38,990 --> 00:05:38,280 love you 104 00:05:40,430 --> 00:05:39,000 um 105 00:05:42,290 --> 00:05:40,440 yeah 106 00:05:45,409 --> 00:05:42,300 um anyway I always think of that Noam 107 00:05:48,170 --> 00:05:45,419 Chomsky uh quote about basically how 108 00:05:49,909 --> 00:05:48,180 this phrase support our troops 109 00:05:52,310 --> 00:05:49,919 um is basically this completely 110 00:05:53,930 --> 00:05:52,320 meaningless useless phrase that can be 111 00:05:56,090 --> 00:05:53,940 contorted and applied to basically 112 00:05:58,610 --> 00:05:56,100 anyone of any ideology any place because 113 00:06:00,650 --> 00:05:58,620 who doesn't support the troops right 114 00:06:02,510 --> 00:06:00,660 um and I say this because I think when 115 00:06:04,909 --> 00:06:02,520 we fall into discussing like what 116 00:06:06,790 --> 00:06:04,919 exactly defines ufology we wind up with 117 00:06:08,810 --> 00:06:06,800 these either these extremely literal 118 00:06:10,490 --> 00:06:08,820 definitions that completely fail to 119 00:06:11,450 --> 00:06:10,500 account for the complexity and nuance 120 00:06:13,909 --> 00:06:11,460 and 121 00:06:16,370 --> 00:06:13,919 um sort of like uh qualitative elements 122 00:06:17,810 --> 00:06:16,380 or subjective elements of the subject 123 00:06:18,529 --> 00:06:17,820 um and is really 124 00:06:22,870 --> 00:06:18,539 um 125 00:06:25,129 --> 00:06:22,880 these extremely uh literal definitions 126 00:06:27,050 --> 00:06:25,139 basically failed to account for the 127 00:06:28,309 --> 00:06:27,060 subject and any appreciable way in my 128 00:06:30,710 --> 00:06:28,319 opinion 129 00:06:31,610 --> 00:06:30,720 um but I also think exactly Campbell 130 00:06:34,010 --> 00:06:31,620 said 131 00:06:37,730 --> 00:06:34,020 um when we talk about this subject 132 00:06:40,550 --> 00:06:37,740 um there are definitely basically niches 133 00:06:43,610 --> 00:06:40,560 and sub niches within the entire subject 134 00:06:46,670 --> 00:06:43,620 very nice I have a Seltzer 135 00:06:48,710 --> 00:06:46,680 um but um 136 00:06:51,830 --> 00:06:48,720 niches and sub niches within this 137 00:06:53,809 --> 00:06:51,840 subject that you know in a very general 138 00:06:58,550 --> 00:06:53,819 broad sense Fallen to the subject of 139 00:07:02,210 --> 00:06:58,560 ufology but could very just as much be 140 00:07:04,010 --> 00:07:02,220 considered psychedelia meditation 141 00:07:06,650 --> 00:07:04,020 um spiritual emergence you know these 142 00:07:08,390 --> 00:07:06,660 variety of human experiences that don't 143 00:07:10,010 --> 00:07:08,400 fall strictly into the nuts and bolts or 144 00:07:11,809 --> 00:07:10,020 material phenomena that we hear people 145 00:07:14,330 --> 00:07:11,819 talk about 146 00:07:15,110 --> 00:07:14,340 um you know it and I think 147 00:07:17,570 --> 00:07:15,120 um 148 00:07:19,790 --> 00:07:17,580 it also reminds me of uh seeing people 149 00:07:21,589 --> 00:07:19,800 say things like UFOs are real right like 150 00:07:23,689 --> 00:07:21,599 this is a completely meaningless and 151 00:07:25,430 --> 00:07:23,699 vacuous statement because of course 152 00:07:27,830 --> 00:07:25,440 there are literal UFOs there are things 153 00:07:29,510 --> 00:07:27,840 we see that people see that cannot 154 00:07:30,830 --> 00:07:29,520 literally be identified 155 00:07:32,749 --> 00:07:30,840 um but what does that actually mean 156 00:07:34,670 --> 00:07:32,759 right like what does this notion of uas 157 00:07:37,749 --> 00:07:34,680 UFOs are real what does this actually 158 00:07:39,950 --> 00:07:37,759 imply from an ontological and a a 159 00:07:41,450 --> 00:07:39,960 epistemological perspective 160 00:07:43,930 --> 00:07:41,460 um and of course that necessitates us to 161 00:07:46,909 --> 00:07:43,940 even have some shared consensus 162 00:07:49,850 --> 00:07:46,919 understanding of what UFOs even are 163 00:07:52,150 --> 00:07:49,860 um right so pretty nice are they just 164 00:07:55,189 --> 00:07:52,160 flying saucers Nick 165 00:07:56,809 --> 00:07:55,199 pre-1947 I mean like they're all history 166 00:07:58,809 --> 00:07:56,819 we've been seeing things in the sky that 167 00:08:02,270 --> 00:07:58,819 we can't recognize you know 168 00:08:04,550 --> 00:08:02,280 airships the ghost rockets in 1946 uh 169 00:08:05,870 --> 00:08:04,560 Foo Fighters during the war but they 170 00:08:08,390 --> 00:08:05,880 were never I mean [\h__\h] even stuff 171 00:08:10,490 --> 00:08:08,400 documented uh over Nuremberg in the 16th 172 00:08:12,469 --> 00:08:10,500 century there's all sorts of things but 173 00:08:14,150 --> 00:08:12,479 these were all kind of collected into a 174 00:08:16,670 --> 00:08:14,160 general unknown 175 00:08:18,369 --> 00:08:16,680 um kind of 40 Anna right actually it was 176 00:08:23,529 --> 00:08:18,379 the audience who were like the 177 00:08:26,170 --> 00:08:23,539 proto-u-fologists not the freudians 178 00:08:30,290 --> 00:08:26,180 important distinction but then after 179 00:08:32,089 --> 00:08:30,300 1947 or yeah 1947 it kind of was 180 00:08:35,029 --> 00:08:32,099 re-categorized as its own thing although 181 00:08:36,829 --> 00:08:35,039 I can't point to a specific like 182 00:08:39,769 --> 00:08:36,839 characteristic or trait that's a 183 00:08:40,969 --> 00:08:39,779 criteria to become a UFO uh opposed to 184 00:08:43,010 --> 00:08:40,979 like we were talking to Michael 185 00:08:44,570 --> 00:08:43,020 Huntington uh and I asked him like what 186 00:08:47,030 --> 00:08:44,580 what's the distinction between a spook 187 00:08:49,550 --> 00:08:47,040 light and a UFO 188 00:08:51,710 --> 00:08:49,560 and I wonder I wonder why you guys think 189 00:08:54,889 --> 00:08:51,720 that uh 190 00:08:56,110 --> 00:08:54,899 not what about what was it about 1947 191 00:08:57,949 --> 00:08:56,120 that kind of 192 00:08:59,210 --> 00:08:57,959 re-categorized it and kind of 193 00:09:02,350 --> 00:08:59,220 essentially created what we understand 194 00:09:05,150 --> 00:09:02,360 as you have ufology now 195 00:09:06,710 --> 00:09:05,160 uh I just want to address a question 196 00:09:08,870 --> 00:09:06,720 from one of the viewers right now if he 197 00:09:11,389 --> 00:09:08,880 asks I've heard that word 14 before but 198 00:09:14,210 --> 00:09:11,399 what's it mean it's basically uh an 199 00:09:15,590 --> 00:09:14,220 adjective reference to Charles Fort uh 200 00:09:17,030 --> 00:09:15,600 who wrote the book of the Damned and he 201 00:09:18,710 --> 00:09:17,040 studied a lot of the sort of strange 202 00:09:20,930 --> 00:09:18,720 paranormal 203 00:09:23,090 --> 00:09:20,940 Etc totally worth checking out 204 00:09:25,370 --> 00:09:23,100 um you can get his books on Amazon for 205 00:09:27,850 --> 00:09:25,380 super super inexpensive but I sort of 206 00:09:31,130 --> 00:09:27,860 think of him as the pioneer of modern 207 00:09:33,290 --> 00:09:31,140 paranormal studies or weird studies 208 00:09:35,530 --> 00:09:33,300 um everything from telekinesis 209 00:09:37,690 --> 00:09:35,540 Clairvoyance clairaudience 210 00:09:40,610 --> 00:09:37,700 mediumship 211 00:09:41,870 --> 00:09:40,620 activity yeah reigning frogs any of this 212 00:09:43,790 --> 00:09:41,880 kind of stuff 213 00:09:46,670 --> 00:09:43,800 um totally worth checking out if you 214 00:09:48,170 --> 00:09:46,680 were like kind of in a nutshell what he 215 00:09:50,750 --> 00:09:48,180 thought is he thought the v's like 216 00:09:53,210 --> 00:09:50,760 anomalies or mysteries of Science and 217 00:09:55,430 --> 00:09:53,220 stuff like that all kind of came from 218 00:09:56,690 --> 00:09:55,440 uh play it's where I told you your ring 219 00:09:58,790 --> 00:09:56,700 was from and I can't remember it's the 220 00:10:02,810 --> 00:09:58,800 super something C it was it's 221 00:10:06,110 --> 00:10:02,820 essentially Super sargasso C yes that 222 00:10:07,910 --> 00:10:06,120 swallowed up my engagement ring yeah so 223 00:10:09,889 --> 00:10:07,920 um this concept is something that we saw 224 00:10:12,290 --> 00:10:09,899 when we talked way back in like episode 225 00:10:14,570 --> 00:10:12,300 four about ghosts it's essentially a 226 00:10:17,030 --> 00:10:14,580 reinterpretation of The Ether which is 227 00:10:19,850 --> 00:10:17,040 actually a medieval idea so this idea 228 00:10:22,130 --> 00:10:19,860 that we now kind of um I see people talk 229 00:10:24,590 --> 00:10:22,140 about Consciousness in the same way but 230 00:10:26,810 --> 00:10:24,600 also the extra dimensional hypothesis 231 00:10:29,269 --> 00:10:26,820 are all kind of this same recycled 232 00:10:32,090 --> 00:10:29,279 concept from medieval times of The Ether 233 00:10:33,230 --> 00:10:32,100 this kind of like parallel other space 234 00:10:37,310 --> 00:10:33,240 like a 235 00:10:38,870 --> 00:10:37,320 they come in in and out of and it's 236 00:10:42,769 --> 00:10:38,880 interesting that that 237 00:10:46,009 --> 00:10:42,779 predated the eth essentially I I say 238 00:10:47,990 --> 00:10:46,019 that uh some of uh the 40s under four 239 00:10:52,430 --> 00:10:48,000 kind of proposed the ultra dimensional 240 00:10:54,110 --> 00:10:52,440 hypothesis too but it seems to 241 00:10:55,490 --> 00:10:54,120 it's so murky around them because you 242 00:10:57,710 --> 00:10:55,500 had people like Mead Lane who were doing 243 00:10:58,310 --> 00:10:57,720 the channeling thing which also Echoes 244 00:11:00,230 --> 00:10:58,320 um 245 00:11:03,829 --> 00:11:00,240 spiritualism that we talked about before 246 00:11:05,449 --> 00:11:03,839 but then you had um what's his name uh 247 00:11:08,210 --> 00:11:05,459 Ray Palmer who was writing America or 248 00:11:10,069 --> 00:11:08,220 Amazing Stories basically writing out 249 00:11:12,110 --> 00:11:10,079 the UFO narrative that exists today 250 00:11:14,389 --> 00:11:12,120 essentially The X-Files plotline that 251 00:11:15,590 --> 00:11:14,399 these are craft with extraterrestrials 252 00:11:16,970 --> 00:11:15,600 and the government knows about it and 253 00:11:20,590 --> 00:11:16,980 deciding knowledge I mean he was writing 254 00:11:23,750 --> 00:11:20,600 this back in 1946 so prior to 255 00:11:25,910 --> 00:11:23,760 1947 but what like 256 00:11:28,009 --> 00:11:25,920 what it what is it I I asked this a 257 00:11:30,590 --> 00:11:28,019 minute ago what what was it about that 258 00:11:32,810 --> 00:11:30,600 year or was it even the Kenneth Arnold 259 00:11:34,790 --> 00:11:32,820 citing that kind of re-categorized this 260 00:11:35,810 --> 00:11:34,800 like what do you think 261 00:11:38,030 --> 00:11:35,820 um 262 00:11:39,530 --> 00:11:38,040 well wait can I can I I just want to 263 00:11:42,829 --> 00:11:39,540 sidecar on something you brought up 264 00:11:46,670 --> 00:11:42,839 about this idea of the emergence in the 265 00:11:47,990 --> 00:11:46,680 medieval period of this like like 266 00:11:50,930 --> 00:11:48,000 um 267 00:11:52,970 --> 00:11:50,940 other world or other reality right this 268 00:11:54,769 --> 00:11:52,980 is very much so like when we look at uh 269 00:11:56,509 --> 00:11:54,779 it's sort of and I'm just gonna go a 270 00:11:58,490 --> 00:11:56,519 little bit off the cuff here but it sort 271 00:12:00,230 --> 00:11:58,500 of reminds me about discussions of low 272 00:12:02,210 --> 00:12:00,240 versus high christology right when you 273 00:12:04,370 --> 00:12:02,220 read the really early 274 00:12:06,470 --> 00:12:04,380 um gospels about Christ they're very 275 00:12:08,150 --> 00:12:06,480 like nuts and bolts there's nothing but 276 00:12:10,009 --> 00:12:08,160 a physical or woo-woo about them they're 277 00:12:11,569 --> 00:12:10,019 just like dude got now to a cross died 278 00:12:13,009 --> 00:12:11,579 after three days 279 00:12:14,690 --> 00:12:13,019 um that was kind of it when you read 280 00:12:16,130 --> 00:12:14,700 like some of the later gospels that's 281 00:12:18,170 --> 00:12:16,140 when you start seeing a lot more of this 282 00:12:20,269 --> 00:12:18,180 sort of metaphysical or mysterious or 283 00:12:22,190 --> 00:12:20,279 numinous quality associated with the 284 00:12:23,569 --> 00:12:22,200 death and resurrection of Christ and 285 00:12:25,310 --> 00:12:23,579 also the sort of symbolism that's 286 00:12:27,470 --> 00:12:25,320 associated with this right this is when 287 00:12:28,430 --> 00:12:27,480 like the story of like the dove comes 288 00:12:29,090 --> 00:12:28,440 out 289 00:12:34,250 --> 00:12:29,100 um 290 00:12:36,290 --> 00:12:34,260 particularly 291 00:12:37,610 --> 00:12:36,300 um the medieval Christian experience was 292 00:12:39,829 --> 00:12:37,620 imbued with a lot of these sort of 293 00:12:42,829 --> 00:12:39,839 mystical preoccupations 294 00:12:45,889 --> 00:12:42,839 um and then also uh you see this show up 295 00:12:47,629 --> 00:12:45,899 in a lot of uh like medieval art and in 296 00:12:49,610 --> 00:12:47,639 the Roman Catholic Church which was sort 297 00:12:52,610 --> 00:12:49,620 of the overarching 298 00:12:54,110 --> 00:12:52,620 um uh body 299 00:12:57,769 --> 00:12:54,120 um working 300 00:12:59,329 --> 00:12:57,779 um on defining uh Christianity 301 00:13:01,370 --> 00:12:59,339 um and we see you know we see there's 302 00:13:03,190 --> 00:13:01,380 all these different um artifacts that 303 00:13:06,430 --> 00:13:03,200 are supposedly imbued with this sort of 304 00:13:08,810 --> 00:13:06,440 metaphysical or uh 305 00:13:11,150 --> 00:13:08,820 divine power just by virtue of being 306 00:13:13,069 --> 00:13:11,160 around Christ and this I think 307 00:13:14,990 --> 00:13:13,079 um both from a theological perspective 308 00:13:16,490 --> 00:13:15,000 an Institutional perspective like within 309 00:13:19,250 --> 00:13:16,500 the realm of the Catholic Church itself 310 00:13:20,990 --> 00:13:19,260 but then also um for the followers of 311 00:13:22,850 --> 00:13:21,000 the church the laity 312 00:13:24,410 --> 00:13:22,860 um this idea of like you know the Spear 313 00:13:26,509 --> 00:13:24,420 of Destiny quote unquote the spirit that 314 00:13:28,310 --> 00:13:26,519 was used to pierce Christ's side the 315 00:13:30,290 --> 00:13:28,320 Shroud of Turin 316 00:13:32,389 --> 00:13:30,300 um the the different relics either 317 00:13:34,850 --> 00:13:32,399 Christ relics like pieces of the Cross 318 00:13:37,430 --> 00:13:34,860 or Saints relics you know like bones and 319 00:13:38,569 --> 00:13:37,440 hearts and [\h__\h] like that like this very 320 00:13:41,090 --> 00:13:38,579 much introduced into popular 321 00:13:42,889 --> 00:13:41,100 Consciousness this idea that there is 322 00:13:44,389 --> 00:13:42,899 this sort of other world that even if we 323 00:13:46,310 --> 00:13:44,399 can't physically engage with it and 324 00:13:48,170 --> 00:13:46,320 interact with it what we can do is we 325 00:13:49,430 --> 00:13:48,180 can use this sort of divine artifacts 326 00:13:52,430 --> 00:13:49,440 again through the Catholic Church 327 00:13:54,110 --> 00:13:52,440 obviously like indigenous and Witchcraft 328 00:13:56,750 --> 00:13:54,120 and stuff are also doing this kind of 329 00:13:58,550 --> 00:13:56,760 thing much more surreptitiously but you 330 00:14:01,970 --> 00:13:58,560 can use these artifacts as basically 331 00:14:04,430 --> 00:14:01,980 prisms or gateways into encountering or 332 00:14:06,590 --> 00:14:04,440 understanding or peering into the Divine 333 00:14:08,389 --> 00:14:06,600 or the sort of alternate reality that 334 00:14:09,230 --> 00:14:08,399 exists and I feel like when we think 335 00:14:11,449 --> 00:14:09,240 about 336 00:14:13,370 --> 00:14:11,459 um what sort of primed the Western 337 00:14:15,650 --> 00:14:13,380 modern mind for this kind of thinking 338 00:14:17,389 --> 00:14:15,660 like we have the medieval period And I 339 00:14:18,769 --> 00:14:17,399 mean even we have like Wagner and 340 00:14:20,569 --> 00:14:18,779 parsifal in the ring and stuff like 341 00:14:22,370 --> 00:14:20,579 parsifal is all about this stuff and 342 00:14:23,870 --> 00:14:22,380 that was like one of the main you know 343 00:14:25,910 --> 00:14:23,880 one of the main cultural icons at the 344 00:14:27,530 --> 00:14:25,920 end of the 19th century bringing these 345 00:14:30,230 --> 00:14:27,540 ideas into common kind of Consciousness 346 00:14:32,030 --> 00:14:30,240 along with like romantic nationalism and 347 00:14:34,009 --> 00:14:32,040 things like that but anyway that's 348 00:14:36,410 --> 00:14:34,019 that's what I was thinking of when we 349 00:14:39,650 --> 00:14:36,420 think about how sort of the the common 350 00:14:41,569 --> 00:14:39,660 mind becomes primed to accept and engage 351 00:14:43,490 --> 00:14:41,579 with these ideas of non-physical reality 352 00:14:46,370 --> 00:14:43,500 being around us 353 00:14:47,870 --> 00:14:46,380 um and occasionally also affecting our 354 00:14:49,970 --> 00:14:47,880 physical realities right this is why 355 00:14:51,829 --> 00:14:49,980 people pray to relics or pray for 356 00:14:55,790 --> 00:14:51,839 intercession of the Saints to do things 357 00:14:58,370 --> 00:14:55,800 in our physical reality on our behalves 358 00:15:01,189 --> 00:14:58,380 and I think it's worth noting too like 359 00:15:05,509 --> 00:15:01,199 the idea of The Ether that the ethereum 360 00:15:08,150 --> 00:15:05,519 it's the like uh the domain of light of 361 00:15:10,490 --> 00:15:08,160 goodness from the biblical belief system 362 00:15:14,090 --> 00:15:10,500 and uh these beings from the ethereum 363 00:15:16,009 --> 00:15:14,100 are luminous beings uh light is good 364 00:15:19,129 --> 00:15:16,019 they are pure goodness they're pure 365 00:15:20,509 --> 00:15:19,139 light people uh were committing to these 366 00:15:22,569 --> 00:15:20,519 things because they were seeing things 367 00:15:26,569 --> 00:15:22,579 that they couldn't understand or explain 368 00:15:29,509 --> 00:15:26,579 uh seeing meteors coming down um That's 369 00:15:31,910 --> 00:15:29,519 a classic example you see a group of 370 00:15:34,730 --> 00:15:31,920 meteors a slow falling because they're 371 00:15:36,769 --> 00:15:34,740 coming out at a steep angle you wouldn't 372 00:15:38,750 --> 00:15:36,779 know what that was uh they would look 373 00:15:40,370 --> 00:15:38,760 potentially like beings you know if if 374 00:15:41,870 --> 00:15:40,380 you've been told that there are angels 375 00:15:44,449 --> 00:15:41,880 and they're from the ethereum they're 376 00:15:45,949 --> 00:15:44,459 pure luminosity and perhaps that's the 377 00:15:47,810 --> 00:15:45,959 origin of that description right so 378 00:15:49,970 --> 00:15:47,820 these things emerge and then you want a 379 00:15:53,170 --> 00:15:49,980 description of it and uh you know then 380 00:15:56,030 --> 00:15:53,180 you appeal to your 381 00:15:58,490 --> 00:15:56,040 standards of uh reference from your 382 00:16:01,610 --> 00:15:58,500 community right uh so so there is 383 00:16:04,730 --> 00:16:01,620 sometimes a foundation to these uh these 384 00:16:07,129 --> 00:16:04,740 things as well maybe maybe the criteria 385 00:16:09,470 --> 00:16:07,139 that qualifies ufology moving forward 386 00:16:11,689 --> 00:16:09,480 from fortiennas because 387 00:16:13,370 --> 00:16:11,699 unlike other things that you can that 388 00:16:16,490 --> 00:16:13,380 you don't have a good look at you can go 389 00:16:18,170 --> 00:16:16,500 up and examine but UFO sightings are by 390 00:16:21,710 --> 00:16:18,180 definition Out Of Reach and fleeting 391 00:16:23,870 --> 00:16:21,720 kind of so it perpetuates the mystery uh 392 00:16:26,090 --> 00:16:23,880 moving like to quickly answer the 393 00:16:28,069 --> 00:16:26,100 question I put out to you about 1947 I 394 00:16:29,269 --> 00:16:28,079 think it's all in The Branding I think 395 00:16:31,389 --> 00:16:29,279 the um 396 00:16:34,129 --> 00:16:31,399 the mistaking 397 00:16:35,949 --> 00:16:34,139 press report calling them flying saucers 398 00:16:38,870 --> 00:16:35,959 is really what kind of 399 00:16:41,689 --> 00:16:38,880 beta uh it's a meme yeah it's a meme 400 00:16:44,749 --> 00:16:41,699 it's a meme it was a it was it's like a 401 00:16:48,170 --> 00:16:44,759 jingle or a brand to put it all under 402 00:16:50,030 --> 00:16:48,180 and I think that that is why 1947 is an 403 00:16:52,970 --> 00:16:50,040 important date and kind of what spawned 404 00:16:55,009 --> 00:16:52,980 what we do now to Circle back but what 405 00:16:57,470 --> 00:16:55,019 were you saying Campbell yes 406 00:17:01,310 --> 00:16:57,480 uh just about uh the there are 407 00:17:04,429 --> 00:17:01,320 observations that produce uh these 408 00:17:05,990 --> 00:17:04,439 stories and just another form of 409 00:17:07,850 --> 00:17:06,000 observation from the Middle Ages would 410 00:17:09,350 --> 00:17:07,860 be something that Jacques valet who is 411 00:17:10,730 --> 00:17:09,360 you know a famous ufologist actually 412 00:17:13,270 --> 00:17:10,740 references in one of his most famous 413 00:17:17,210 --> 00:17:13,280 book titles uh passport to Magonia 414 00:17:18,890 --> 00:17:17,220 begonias the other realm where the fairy 415 00:17:20,449 --> 00:17:18,900 folk take you when you pass out or 416 00:17:22,429 --> 00:17:20,459 whatever it is 417 00:17:25,429 --> 00:17:22,439 um and then it's also this idea of the 418 00:17:27,470 --> 00:17:25,439 castles in the sky and that sounds like 419 00:17:29,390 --> 00:17:27,480 an absurd concept that a cast will be in 420 00:17:32,090 --> 00:17:29,400 the sky but we've played the videos of 421 00:17:35,510 --> 00:17:32,100 uh the natural uh atmospheric effect 422 00:17:37,549 --> 00:17:35,520 fata Morgana it's uh 423 00:17:41,390 --> 00:17:37,559 an atmospheric effect that causes light 424 00:17:43,130 --> 00:17:41,400 waves to uh move at a trajectory that 425 00:17:45,289 --> 00:17:43,140 brings them across the Horizon and then 426 00:17:48,049 --> 00:17:45,299 it makes distant objects appear to be 427 00:17:49,669 --> 00:17:48,059 floating and you can produce very 428 00:17:51,409 --> 00:17:49,679 interesting effects that way the image 429 00:17:53,690 --> 00:17:51,419 sometimes gets stacked up in a column 430 00:17:55,850 --> 00:17:53,700 and it can look like a castle in the sky 431 00:17:57,529 --> 00:17:55,860 and so there's a there's a middle ground 432 00:17:58,669 --> 00:17:57,539 there where people are seeing these very 433 00:18:00,350 --> 00:17:58,679 strange things that they can't explain 434 00:18:01,789 --> 00:18:00,360 but then there's folklore about what 435 00:18:03,230 --> 00:18:01,799 they actually you know think that they 436 00:18:05,090 --> 00:18:03,240 are and then there's a consensus that's 437 00:18:06,650 --> 00:18:05,100 built from you know the origin of people 438 00:18:07,850 --> 00:18:06,660 actually seeing something very unusual 439 00:18:09,230 --> 00:18:07,860 and then the larger group of people 440 00:18:10,610 --> 00:18:09,240 believing them who they have close 441 00:18:12,590 --> 00:18:10,620 personal relationships and expands 442 00:18:14,150 --> 00:18:12,600 expands and then there comes a certain 443 00:18:16,789 --> 00:18:14,160 point when you actually have the 444 00:18:19,549 --> 00:18:16,799 capacity through a variety of mechanisms 445 00:18:21,669 --> 00:18:19,559 to investigate and verify what exactly 446 00:18:24,289 --> 00:18:21,679 that is that's occurring 447 00:18:28,130 --> 00:18:24,299 and that's sort of a transformational 448 00:18:30,890 --> 00:18:28,140 thing in the case of 47 nick uh is there 449 00:18:32,450 --> 00:18:30,900 is there a particular pivot other than 450 00:18:34,510 --> 00:18:32,460 just Kenneth Arnold that you're thinking 451 00:18:36,890 --> 00:18:34,520 of specifically that makes it so 452 00:18:38,390 --> 00:18:36,900 defining as a year 453 00:18:40,909 --> 00:18:38,400 well 454 00:18:43,610 --> 00:18:40,919 um what was it it was June 24th 455 00:18:46,669 --> 00:18:43,620 um he saw nine objects that he described 456 00:18:49,190 --> 00:18:46,679 as uh skipping like saucers I believe he 457 00:18:51,529 --> 00:18:49,200 sits there around in front with a 458 00:18:54,590 --> 00:18:51,539 convex triangle on the back they were 459 00:18:58,190 --> 00:18:54,600 not circular they were not discs um 460 00:19:00,350 --> 00:18:58,200 but he was a uh 461 00:19:02,529 --> 00:19:00,360 what everyone would even still call a 462 00:19:06,169 --> 00:19:02,539 reliable witness you know he's a 463 00:19:08,270 --> 00:19:06,179 upstanding citizen I think he is uh I 464 00:19:09,770 --> 00:19:08,280 think he was former military was he I I 465 00:19:11,810 --> 00:19:09,780 couldn't tell you 466 00:19:14,390 --> 00:19:11,820 um bro I 467 00:19:16,490 --> 00:19:14,400 it's hard to say it maybe it was just 468 00:19:18,470 --> 00:19:16,500 that right time 469 00:19:20,870 --> 00:19:18,480 um maybe it's one of the maybe it was a 470 00:19:22,250 --> 00:19:20,880 summer fad the fake callback uh summer 471 00:19:25,669 --> 00:19:22,260 silliness 472 00:19:28,610 --> 00:19:25,679 but immediately after that you had 473 00:19:30,470 --> 00:19:28,620 an enormous wave of people seeing discs 474 00:19:32,630 --> 00:19:30,480 not only disks but spinning discs 475 00:19:34,669 --> 00:19:32,640 usually which is kind of you would 476 00:19:36,169 --> 00:19:34,679 naturally kind of come to the conclusion 477 00:19:39,049 --> 00:19:36,179 that they would just because they are 478 00:19:41,029 --> 00:19:39,059 around but uh 479 00:19:43,310 --> 00:19:41,039 I don't know it's interesting one of one 480 00:19:45,650 --> 00:19:43,320 of the the I think it was within a week 481 00:19:47,450 --> 00:19:45,660 there was a case uh the Maury island 482 00:19:48,890 --> 00:19:47,460 case which turned out to be a hoax I 483 00:19:51,049 --> 00:19:48,900 believe that he got himself involved 484 00:19:53,390 --> 00:19:51,059 with and uh I think one of the people 485 00:19:55,190 --> 00:19:53,400 involved in that case was also um 486 00:19:56,870 --> 00:19:55,200 contributing to America uh Amazing 487 00:19:58,970 --> 00:19:56,880 Stories 488 00:20:01,190 --> 00:19:58,980 I think he claimed to have fought the 489 00:20:03,169 --> 00:20:01,200 Darrow in a cave the Darrow come from 490 00:20:05,750 --> 00:20:03,179 the shaver Mysteries which were oh yeah 491 00:20:07,850 --> 00:20:05,760 the uh Palmer just kind of rewriting 492 00:20:13,070 --> 00:20:07,860 schizophrenic letters 493 00:20:19,430 --> 00:20:16,210 I think that um 494 00:20:20,750 --> 00:20:19,440 1947 there was that was the year the uh 495 00:20:23,450 --> 00:20:20,760 Chuck Yeager broke the song barrier 496 00:20:25,990 --> 00:20:23,460 right yep it was it was this is also 497 00:20:28,070 --> 00:20:26,000 when Roswell happened you know although 498 00:20:30,230 --> 00:20:28,080 but like Roswell didn't really enter 499 00:20:31,970 --> 00:20:30,240 sort of the cultural Zeitgeist in a 500 00:20:33,710 --> 00:20:31,980 meaningful sense into the 80s right yeah 501 00:20:35,570 --> 00:20:33,720 there's this great book on it like the 502 00:20:37,250 --> 00:20:35,580 myth of Roswell or something it's not 503 00:20:38,750 --> 00:20:37,260 about denigrating the contents of the 504 00:20:41,690 --> 00:20:38,760 Roswell narrative but rather to talk 505 00:20:43,430 --> 00:20:41,700 about how it emerged as an American myth 506 00:20:45,230 --> 00:20:43,440 or kind of shared cultural Touchstone 507 00:20:48,230 --> 00:20:45,240 didn't really happen until the mid to 508 00:20:50,090 --> 00:20:48,240 late 80s yeah it was just one of many 509 00:20:51,950 --> 00:20:50,100 um newspaper reports that's the media 510 00:20:53,930 --> 00:20:51,960 really carried this story around and I 511 00:20:55,669 --> 00:20:53,940 think that that is kind of what took off 512 00:20:57,409 --> 00:20:55,679 because like I mentioned the the year 513 00:20:59,090 --> 00:20:57,419 before I think in Scandinavia he had 514 00:21:01,490 --> 00:20:59,100 there was a wave of ghost rocket 515 00:21:04,070 --> 00:21:01,500 sightings 516 00:21:05,690 --> 00:21:04,080 they they're not necessarily considered 517 00:21:08,029 --> 00:21:05,700 the same thing 518 00:21:10,730 --> 00:21:08,039 so I I don't know I think I think it was 519 00:21:12,409 --> 00:21:10,740 that Snappy name really yeah it's a meme 520 00:21:14,210 --> 00:21:12,419 it's catchy right it's like a Burma 521 00:21:14,930 --> 00:21:14,220 shave billboard or something people love 522 00:21:16,310 --> 00:21:14,940 it 523 00:21:17,990 --> 00:21:16,320 um and I mean this is also look this is 524 00:21:20,810 --> 00:21:18,000 the height the other thing going on here 525 00:21:22,850 --> 00:21:20,820 too we're gonna sort of uh look at the 526 00:21:24,230 --> 00:21:22,860 broader kind of landscape this is also a 527 00:21:25,789 --> 00:21:24,240 time it's right after World War II 528 00:21:27,770 --> 00:21:25,799 people are this is sort of the golden 529 00:21:29,270 --> 00:21:27,780 age of technology in the Golden Age of 530 00:21:30,950 --> 00:21:29,280 Science Fiction this is back when things 531 00:21:33,049 --> 00:21:30,960 were still optimistic right we're not 532 00:21:34,789 --> 00:21:33,059 all living in this William Gibson 533 00:21:37,730 --> 00:21:34,799 hallscape we're living in this like 534 00:21:40,909 --> 00:21:37,740 happy Fritz you know 535 00:21:43,490 --> 00:21:40,919 um like Fritz lever pleasure Dome of 536 00:21:44,930 --> 00:21:43,500 like being saved by technology yeah the 537 00:21:46,909 --> 00:21:44,940 dystopia Is Yet To Come yeah the 538 00:21:48,770 --> 00:21:46,919 dystopia is yet to come 539 00:21:51,830 --> 00:21:48,780 um and there's also this I think this 540 00:21:54,049 --> 00:21:51,840 also uh proclivity to see technology as 541 00:21:55,909 --> 00:21:54,059 a benevolent force that intervened on 542 00:21:58,310 --> 00:21:55,919 behalf of saving Humanity right like 543 00:22:01,010 --> 00:21:58,320 this is sort of the raw raw American 544 00:22:03,409 --> 00:22:01,020 view after World War II 545 00:22:05,330 --> 00:22:03,419 um I think people had been accustomed to 546 00:22:08,990 --> 00:22:05,340 technological Marvels at this point and 547 00:22:11,270 --> 00:22:09,000 yeah nothing that the UFOs did then or I 548 00:22:13,610 --> 00:22:11,280 think do now are necessarily outside of 549 00:22:16,010 --> 00:22:13,620 like the imagination of our near future 550 00:22:19,010 --> 00:22:16,020 right you know what I mean like at the 551 00:22:21,649 --> 00:22:19,020 time what were the you know the 552 00:22:23,210 --> 00:22:21,659 properties of the UFO beside it being a 553 00:22:26,029 --> 00:22:23,220 saucer was that it would they would move 554 00:22:27,890 --> 00:22:26,039 extremely quickly I don't even think the 555 00:22:30,110 --> 00:22:27,900 um the odd Maneuvers were necessarily 556 00:22:34,370 --> 00:22:30,120 common yet just that they would take off 557 00:22:36,409 --> 00:22:34,380 essentially like a a jet airplane well 558 00:22:38,270 --> 00:22:36,419 I was just gonna jump in and say too 559 00:22:40,070 --> 00:22:38,280 Jacques valet and Forbidden Science that 560 00:22:42,049 --> 00:22:40,080 first volume he talks about his sighting 561 00:22:43,730 --> 00:22:42,059 and he literally he sees a literal 562 00:22:46,970 --> 00:22:43,740 Flying Saucer that's what he talks about 563 00:22:49,070 --> 00:22:46,980 it's not an orb it's not Arc cigar or 564 00:22:51,470 --> 00:22:49,080 Rod it is a flying saucer and he 565 00:22:55,549 --> 00:22:51,480 observes it and this is like early 1950s 566 00:22:57,950 --> 00:22:55,559 so is it it would be kind of uh kind of 567 00:23:00,950 --> 00:22:57,960 a leap or at least a large coincidence 568 00:23:03,830 --> 00:23:00,960 that um extraterrestrials start visiting 569 00:23:05,690 --> 00:23:03,840 us you know the day after 570 00:23:07,370 --> 00:23:05,700 um Kenneth Arnold has his sighting and 571 00:23:09,169 --> 00:23:07,380 what are you talking about they've been 572 00:23:11,029 --> 00:23:09,179 here for thousands of years 573 00:23:14,710 --> 00:23:11,039 sure 574 00:23:17,570 --> 00:23:14,720 right always kind of mirroring this 575 00:23:20,330 --> 00:23:17,580 yeah right 576 00:23:22,430 --> 00:23:20,340 it's a good point about the timing uh 577 00:23:25,130 --> 00:23:22,440 involved there was so much paranoia 578 00:23:28,549 --> 00:23:25,140 after World War II people were familiar 579 00:23:30,470 --> 00:23:28,559 with the fact that the German uh 580 00:23:32,570 --> 00:23:30,480 military and such had developed 581 00:23:35,029 --> 00:23:32,580 extremely Advanced Weaponry in the form 582 00:23:47,770 --> 00:23:35,039 of the Rockets the v1s and especially 583 00:23:51,770 --> 00:23:50,210 yeah that's that's basically it you've 584 00:23:55,549 --> 00:23:51,780 been saying on the nice part of the UFO 585 00:23:58,190 --> 00:23:55,559 internet yeah yeah that's a benefit and 586 00:24:00,470 --> 00:23:58,200 curse of me sort of jumping in from the 587 00:24:03,890 --> 00:24:00,480 science side don't have this Rich 588 00:24:06,049 --> 00:24:03,900 history of the Nazi conspiracies because 589 00:24:09,890 --> 00:24:06,059 we failed anti-Semitism permeating 590 00:24:12,350 --> 00:24:09,900 everything yes yes but yeah so like the 591 00:24:16,029 --> 00:24:12,360 V2 and it was kind of a novel thing like 592 00:24:18,950 --> 00:24:16,039 the V2 it went so fast that it was 593 00:24:20,810 --> 00:24:18,960 silent until there was a sudden 594 00:24:23,810 --> 00:24:20,820 explosion in front of you that was 595 00:24:25,430 --> 00:24:23,820 extremely doubt had never been occurred 596 00:24:28,310 --> 00:24:25,440 historically and people were completely 597 00:24:30,169 --> 00:24:28,320 blown away by just that on its own that 598 00:24:32,090 --> 00:24:30,179 it's moving so fast or the technology 599 00:24:34,250 --> 00:24:32,100 can produce something like that and then 600 00:24:36,710 --> 00:24:34,260 we had the situation where the Soviets 601 00:24:38,270 --> 00:24:36,720 came in on the East the you know Allied 602 00:24:40,010 --> 00:24:38,280 Powers came in on the west and then we 603 00:24:41,570 --> 00:24:40,020 were snatching up all these scientists 604 00:24:43,990 --> 00:24:41,580 especially in the Rock like we've got a 605 00:24:47,210 --> 00:24:44,000 bunch of the rocketry scientists 606 00:24:48,590 --> 00:24:47,220 and the American government we know from 607 00:24:51,289 --> 00:24:48,600 Declassified documents they were 608 00:24:54,110 --> 00:24:51,299 extremely worried the about the idea 609 00:24:56,450 --> 00:24:54,120 that the Soviets had gotten enough 610 00:24:59,149 --> 00:24:56,460 scientists out of there that they now 611 00:25:02,930 --> 00:24:59,159 had a technological Advance advantage in 612 00:25:05,149 --> 00:25:02,940 rocketry and so when you see Sweden uh 613 00:25:09,289 --> 00:25:05,159 over Sweden the idea of these uh ghost 614 00:25:11,450 --> 00:25:09,299 Rockets the next year in 46 he prevalent 615 00:25:13,610 --> 00:25:11,460 the thought was naturally just like we 616 00:25:15,730 --> 00:25:13,620 saw last year was it with the drones 617 00:25:18,409 --> 00:25:15,740 over the nuclear power plants in Sweden 618 00:25:20,029 --> 00:25:18,419 instantaneously it's our old enemy 619 00:25:21,830 --> 00:25:20,039 Russia you know the Swedish and Russian 620 00:25:23,570 --> 00:25:21,840 Empires were enemies for dead in 621 00:25:25,070 --> 00:25:23,580 centuries and now they you know they 622 00:25:27,590 --> 00:25:25,080 still are very tense 623 00:25:29,210 --> 00:25:27,600 so you know you got this long history if 624 00:25:30,710 --> 00:25:29,220 you're speculating about the Soviets 625 00:25:32,570 --> 00:25:30,720 sort of being responsible for things 626 00:25:34,370 --> 00:25:32,580 that are more advanced than we've ever 627 00:25:36,230 --> 00:25:34,380 seen and when you look at the 628 00:25:38,029 --> 00:25:36,240 Declassified documents from the United 629 00:25:41,210 --> 00:25:38,039 States uh that's that that's what you 630 00:25:44,289 --> 00:25:41,220 see you see them trying to Define what 631 00:25:47,450 --> 00:25:44,299 it is that people are the core residual 632 00:25:49,430 --> 00:25:47,460 that trusted people are seeing and 633 00:25:52,190 --> 00:25:49,440 they're trying to ascertain 634 00:25:54,529 --> 00:25:52,200 there are these things coming from the 635 00:25:56,690 --> 00:25:54,539 Soviet Union do they exist function 636 00:25:59,870 --> 00:25:56,700 fundamentally do they exist if they do 637 00:26:03,230 --> 00:25:59,880 are they still a good technology 638 00:26:04,850 --> 00:26:03,240 leads us into or at least a path towards 639 00:26:05,990 --> 00:26:04,860 talking about disclosure here and that's 640 00:26:07,669 --> 00:26:06,000 the government's involvement 641 00:26:09,010 --> 00:26:07,679 specifically the U.S government's 642 00:26:12,529 --> 00:26:09,020 involvement in 643 00:26:13,250 --> 00:26:12,539 uh a cover-up of this 644 00:26:15,649 --> 00:26:13,260 um 645 00:26:17,210 --> 00:26:15,659 now it's it seems to me now that there's 646 00:26:19,370 --> 00:26:17,220 a lot more government involvement in the 647 00:26:21,529 --> 00:26:19,380 UFO narrative especially lately or you 648 00:26:22,549 --> 00:26:21,539 know the past few years 649 00:26:24,409 --> 00:26:22,559 um 650 00:26:26,690 --> 00:26:24,419 but that that story seems to have kind 651 00:26:29,450 --> 00:26:26,700 of changed hasn't it right like like all 652 00:26:30,950 --> 00:26:29,460 these um all these Secret Pentagon 653 00:26:32,330 --> 00:26:30,960 departments and stuff like that have no 654 00:26:33,890 --> 00:26:32,340 idea what UFOs are and they're still 655 00:26:35,570 --> 00:26:33,900 researching them right 656 00:26:38,529 --> 00:26:35,580 so what what is it that's being 657 00:26:43,549 --> 00:26:41,330 what is being disclosed well very what 658 00:26:45,289 --> 00:26:43,559 like hypothetically ideally what are 659 00:26:48,409 --> 00:26:45,299 what are they disclosing is it the 660 00:26:50,510 --> 00:26:48,419 alleged crash retrieval programs but if 661 00:26:53,090 --> 00:26:50,520 these crash retrieval programs exist why 662 00:26:56,510 --> 00:26:53,100 did something like Leah's muted why did 663 00:27:00,049 --> 00:26:56,520 something like atip exist after the fact 664 00:27:02,269 --> 00:27:00,059 or not atip but ASAP or any of or uh 665 00:27:04,370 --> 00:27:02,279 Arrow now why do we have Arrow now 666 00:27:08,269 --> 00:27:04,380 that's investigating these UFO sightings 667 00:27:11,210 --> 00:27:08,279 when we also in tandem have crashed 668 00:27:13,850 --> 00:27:11,220 what ships crashed ships yeah well 669 00:27:15,950 --> 00:27:13,860 that's interesting I mean that's it gets 670 00:27:18,529 --> 00:27:15,960 all wrapped up together and there are so 671 00:27:20,930 --> 00:27:18,539 many conflicting elements I think it's 672 00:27:23,090 --> 00:27:20,940 important for or at least valuable for 673 00:27:24,950 --> 00:27:23,100 us to Define roughly what disclosure 674 00:27:28,490 --> 00:27:24,960 means for anybody who's not familiar 675 00:27:30,950 --> 00:27:28,500 with the concept disclosure in the UFO 676 00:27:32,870 --> 00:27:30,960 Community is a it's almost like a 677 00:27:34,430 --> 00:27:32,880 judgment day of Kinds but like uh 678 00:27:37,190 --> 00:27:34,440 perceived in a positive way but it's 679 00:27:39,769 --> 00:27:37,200 seen as this sort of inevitable thing in 680 00:27:42,470 --> 00:27:39,779 some of the portion of the community a 681 00:27:43,990 --> 00:27:42,480 day when the government steps forward 682 00:27:47,390 --> 00:27:44,000 and 683 00:27:51,049 --> 00:27:47,400 admits or you know verifies that it's 684 00:27:52,789 --> 00:27:51,059 all been true the abductions the crash 685 00:27:55,549 --> 00:27:52,799 retrievals the secret technology 686 00:27:58,010 --> 00:27:55,559 programs based on UFOs that uh the 687 00:28:00,529 --> 00:27:58,020 aliens are here depending on the exact 688 00:28:01,850 --> 00:28:00,539 narrative you know the beliefs about uh 689 00:28:04,549 --> 00:28:01,860 the presidents of the United States 690 00:28:07,510 --> 00:28:04,559 conspiring with alien races so over 691 00:28:11,930 --> 00:28:07,520 decades so this disclosure day is 692 00:28:13,909 --> 00:28:11,940 verification of The Suite of beliefs 693 00:28:25,930 --> 00:28:13,919 that the particular individual holds 694 00:28:32,750 --> 00:28:29,690 yeah sure I mean I suppose so 695 00:28:35,810 --> 00:28:32,760 can you hear me now exactly yes um oh my 696 00:28:38,510 --> 00:28:35,820 God yes finally so yeah what what has 697 00:28:40,850 --> 00:28:38,520 come from this you know hidden knowledge 698 00:28:43,490 --> 00:28:40,860 that the government's had of either ET 699 00:28:44,510 --> 00:28:43,500 visitation or even crash retrievals do 700 00:28:45,409 --> 00:28:44,520 we have 701 00:28:47,510 --> 00:28:45,419 um 702 00:28:49,070 --> 00:28:47,520 like technology to show for it I've seen 703 00:28:52,730 --> 00:28:49,080 people kind of 704 00:28:55,390 --> 00:28:52,740 um posit that uh fiber optic technology 705 00:28:56,930 --> 00:28:55,400 came from that which 706 00:28:58,549 --> 00:28:56,940 thing 707 00:29:00,769 --> 00:28:58,559 yeah full of course those day after 708 00:29:02,180 --> 00:29:00,779 Roswell contended that that like I think 709 00:29:04,190 --> 00:29:02,190 Wi-Fi 710 00:29:07,730 --> 00:29:04,200 [Music] 711 00:29:09,769 --> 00:29:07,740 um computers like chips yeah 712 00:29:12,230 --> 00:29:09,779 so like I 713 00:29:15,289 --> 00:29:12,240 we're using drones I mean we essentially 714 00:29:16,730 --> 00:29:15,299 understand how drones work what was the 715 00:29:18,529 --> 00:29:16,740 benefit of this knowledge that they've 716 00:29:20,389 --> 00:29:18,539 kept secrets so long that they have yet 717 00:29:22,669 --> 00:29:20,399 to disclose like 718 00:29:24,230 --> 00:29:22,679 are we using in wars and not seeing it 719 00:29:27,710 --> 00:29:24,240 are we are we flying over there in 720 00:29:28,789 --> 00:29:27,720 sports models like what what is this 721 00:29:30,669 --> 00:29:28,799 what is this knowledge that they're 722 00:29:33,409 --> 00:29:30,679 hiding it's simple 723 00:29:35,330 --> 00:29:33,419 it may not be explicit technological 724 00:29:37,370 --> 00:29:35,340 knowledge or information it may be a 725 00:29:39,529 --> 00:29:37,380 broader sort of acknowledgment that 726 00:29:42,529 --> 00:29:39,539 we're not the top man on the totem pole 727 00:29:46,909 --> 00:29:42,539 right and that this is sort of viewed as 728 00:29:49,850 --> 00:29:46,919 an admission or an admission of weakness 729 00:29:51,049 --> 00:29:49,860 that leaves us profoundly exposed to 730 00:29:51,769 --> 00:29:51,059 harm 731 00:29:54,649 --> 00:29:51,779 um 732 00:29:56,990 --> 00:29:54,659 or destruction right that that's sort of 733 00:29:59,870 --> 00:29:57,000 the the reason for not disclosing things 734 00:30:02,330 --> 00:29:59,880 it's not about wartime technology it's 735 00:30:03,649 --> 00:30:02,340 about sort of the broader 736 00:30:07,250 --> 00:30:03,659 um 737 00:30:09,409 --> 00:30:07,260 shift in how we understand our place uh 738 00:30:12,289 --> 00:30:09,419 not just on Earth but literally in the 739 00:30:14,090 --> 00:30:12,299 universe I mean 740 00:30:16,490 --> 00:30:14,100 you remember the pandemic right I mean 741 00:30:20,750 --> 00:30:16,500 like what was the general population I 742 00:30:22,789 --> 00:30:20,760 mean the pandemic exactly exactly so 743 00:30:26,389 --> 00:30:22,799 when I hear a lot of people this is 744 00:30:27,649 --> 00:30:26,399 never gonna share our videos now yeah I 745 00:30:29,269 --> 00:30:27,659 see a lot of people saying the reason 746 00:30:31,549 --> 00:30:29,279 that disclosure has not happened is 747 00:30:32,930 --> 00:30:31,559 because they see the the public would 748 00:30:34,669 --> 00:30:32,940 not be ready for it and there'd be Mass 749 00:30:37,669 --> 00:30:34,679 hysteria and stuff like that but I mean 750 00:30:40,789 --> 00:30:37,679 like that's what the population is even 751 00:30:43,190 --> 00:30:40,799 a virus yeah the Brookings 752 00:30:45,169 --> 00:30:43,200 had that whole report in like the 60s 753 00:30:46,669 --> 00:30:45,179 and 70s about this stuff about basically 754 00:30:47,990 --> 00:30:46,679 saying that even if the government knew 755 00:30:49,850 --> 00:30:48,000 this stuff it should never be disclosed 756 00:30:51,049 --> 00:30:49,860 because of what it would cause from a 757 00:30:52,310 --> 00:30:51,059 social and cultural disruption 758 00:30:54,230 --> 00:30:52,320 perspective 759 00:30:56,269 --> 00:30:54,240 um but yeah Nick I'm with you man like 760 00:30:59,990 --> 00:30:56,279 we don't even have consensus reality 761 00:31:03,169 --> 00:31:00,000 about like you know actually 762 00:31:04,850 --> 00:31:03,179 [\h__\h] yes exactly we are all living in 763 00:31:07,490 --> 00:31:04,860 like highly fractured realities right 764 00:31:10,330 --> 00:31:07,500 now we're living in a post-truth era 765 00:31:17,149 --> 00:31:13,389 this is very upsetting so 766 00:31:19,730 --> 00:31:17,159 I usually ask like what what compelled 767 00:31:22,190 --> 00:31:19,740 us to consider the eth or the nhi 768 00:31:25,430 --> 00:31:22,200 hypothesis in the first place but what 769 00:31:26,810 --> 00:31:25,440 what evidence is there to you even hint 770 00:31:29,330 --> 00:31:26,820 or suggest that the government is 771 00:31:32,269 --> 00:31:29,340 withholding knowledge 772 00:31:35,870 --> 00:31:32,279 well I would say the evidence that the 773 00:31:37,909 --> 00:31:35,880 government is withholding knowledge is I 774 00:31:39,409 --> 00:31:37,919 mean it's simply a fact of history that 775 00:31:40,970 --> 00:31:39,419 the government withholds knowledge so 776 00:31:43,070 --> 00:31:40,980 once again we're sort of stepping into 777 00:31:44,510 --> 00:31:43,080 this territory of like Are UFOs real 778 00:31:46,789 --> 00:31:44,520 well of course anything that's 779 00:31:48,289 --> 00:31:46,799 unidentified in this kind of UFO is the 780 00:31:51,289 --> 00:31:48,299 government withholding things yeah all 781 00:31:53,510 --> 00:31:51,299 the time certainly on the subject of UFO 782 00:31:56,810 --> 00:31:53,520 specifically we actually have a huge 783 00:31:59,450 --> 00:31:56,820 body a large body of a long-standing 784 00:32:01,909 --> 00:31:59,460 verified not confrontational or 785 00:32:03,830 --> 00:32:01,919 challenging evidence that the 786 00:32:06,769 --> 00:32:03,840 government's done a ton of uh secret 787 00:32:08,090 --> 00:32:06,779 work on the study of UFOs to try to take 788 00:32:09,830 --> 00:32:08,100 it seriously and figure out what's going 789 00:32:11,210 --> 00:32:09,840 on and we actually have those reports 790 00:32:13,130 --> 00:32:11,220 and we have the conclusions of those 791 00:32:15,830 --> 00:32:13,140 reports and we have the memos that led 792 00:32:18,289 --> 00:32:15,840 to the production of those reports and 793 00:32:20,510 --> 00:32:18,299 though I mean the narrative that emerges 794 00:32:22,850 --> 00:32:20,520 is pretty coherent it's pretty much 795 00:32:26,029 --> 00:32:22,860 exactly what you would think a 796 00:32:27,049 --> 00:32:26,039 government would do under conditions 797 00:32:29,990 --> 00:32:27,059 where they're trying to behave 798 00:32:34,549 --> 00:32:30,000 responsibly it's exactly what occurred 799 00:32:38,090 --> 00:32:34,559 in the early 50s and onward and you know 800 00:32:40,130 --> 00:32:38,100 is it a conspiracy I mean they're like 801 00:32:41,990 --> 00:32:40,140 there are conspiracies okay so we 802 00:32:45,110 --> 00:32:42,000 mentioned briefly uh maybe it was last 803 00:32:49,370 --> 00:32:45,120 week that or I did anyway that the 804 00:32:52,430 --> 00:32:49,380 American government had sound listening 805 00:32:54,649 --> 00:32:52,440 devices in the Pacific Ocean for decades 806 00:32:56,389 --> 00:32:54,659 through the Cold War and through those 807 00:32:58,430 --> 00:32:56,399 listening devices they were top secret 808 00:33:00,649 --> 00:32:58,440 they were able to pinpoint the exact 809 00:33:01,610 --> 00:33:00,659 location of the entire Soviet nuclear 810 00:33:04,490 --> 00:33:01,620 Fleet 811 00:33:06,889 --> 00:33:04,500 they kept that secret for decades it's 812 00:33:10,070 --> 00:33:06,899 dude we've had drones for like 60 years 813 00:33:12,529 --> 00:33:10,080 yeah but so but speaking so just that 814 00:33:15,409 --> 00:33:12,539 there are these programs with huge 815 00:33:17,630 --> 00:33:15,419 numbers of scientists backing it up uh 816 00:33:19,370 --> 00:33:17,640 totally secrets and uh you know we find 817 00:33:22,310 --> 00:33:19,380 out about it later when the 818 00:33:24,529 --> 00:33:22,320 effectiveness of the system wears off or 819 00:33:27,889 --> 00:33:24,539 a variety of things so there's a long 820 00:33:30,049 --> 00:33:27,899 history of governments uh doing things 821 00:33:33,230 --> 00:33:30,059 in the National Security interests and 822 00:33:34,750 --> 00:33:33,240 the idea you gotta take them to account 823 00:33:37,789 --> 00:33:34,760 you got to make sure that they aren't 824 00:33:40,190 --> 00:33:37,799 abusing that power but there's a long 825 00:33:42,649 --> 00:33:40,200 history of them look doing this kind of 826 00:33:44,750 --> 00:33:42,659 stuff in secret because it's necessary 827 00:33:46,850 --> 00:33:44,760 in the interest of National Security to 828 00:33:48,710 --> 00:33:46,860 do it that way but given that can we 829 00:33:50,210 --> 00:33:48,720 reasonably suspect them of any 830 00:33:52,370 --> 00:33:50,220 conspiracy then 831 00:33:54,110 --> 00:33:52,380 or should there still be you know 832 00:33:55,549 --> 00:33:54,120 something that kind of indicates one way 833 00:33:57,250 --> 00:33:55,559 or the other that led us to that 834 00:34:00,409 --> 00:33:57,260 conclusion 835 00:34:02,810 --> 00:34:00,419 it's also there's also this also 836 00:34:04,490 --> 00:34:02,820 presupposes this notion that the active 837 00:34:06,830 --> 00:34:04,500 disclosure is solely within the hands of 838 00:34:09,829 --> 00:34:06,840 the government and not in the hands of 839 00:34:12,409 --> 00:34:09,839 other other cultural or religious or 840 00:34:14,690 --> 00:34:12,419 academic or private institutions right 841 00:34:16,010 --> 00:34:14,700 like we're all we're all walking around 842 00:34:17,990 --> 00:34:16,020 like oh it's the government's job to 843 00:34:19,609 --> 00:34:18,000 tell us this but the reality is huge 844 00:34:21,230 --> 00:34:19,619 huge amounts 845 00:34:22,849 --> 00:34:21,240 um particularly for our future in 846 00:34:24,230 --> 00:34:22,859 bleeding edge technology has developed 847 00:34:26,210 --> 00:34:24,240 well aside the government's purview 848 00:34:28,190 --> 00:34:26,220 right the government's the one with like 849 00:34:30,829 --> 00:34:28,200 the bottomless pockets for this kind of 850 00:34:32,270 --> 00:34:30,839 stuff and Skunk Works projects but a ton 851 00:34:34,609 --> 00:34:32,280 of this stuff is happening with private 852 00:34:36,889 --> 00:34:34,619 contractors it's happening you know at 853 00:34:38,329 --> 00:34:36,899 Boeing at Lockheed 854 00:34:43,909 --> 00:34:38,339 um 855 00:34:45,649 --> 00:34:43,919 presupposition that this exists within 856 00:34:47,210 --> 00:34:45,659 the hands of the government 857 00:34:48,530 --> 00:34:47,220 um I in a lot of ways I'm much more 858 00:34:50,089 --> 00:34:48,540 inclined to believe this exists in the 859 00:34:51,530 --> 00:34:50,099 hands of the Catholic Church quite 860 00:34:52,849 --> 00:34:51,540 frankly in the government because 861 00:34:54,470 --> 00:34:52,859 there's an organized Collective 862 00:34:56,690 --> 00:34:54,480 institution with an extraordinary 863 00:34:58,370 --> 00:34:56,700 intellectual history 864 00:35:01,609 --> 00:34:58,380 um and extraordinary archives and 865 00:35:03,710 --> 00:35:01,619 resources and money and education uh and 866 00:35:05,030 --> 00:35:03,720 everybody internally being in very 867 00:35:07,010 --> 00:35:05,040 deliberate lockstep with one another 868 00:35:08,930 --> 00:35:07,020 like that seems to me much more 869 00:35:11,450 --> 00:35:08,940 compelling than like a 300 year old 870 00:35:13,910 --> 00:35:11,460 country with a lot of guns and no 871 00:35:15,349 --> 00:35:13,920 socialized Healthcare right like I I 872 00:35:17,329 --> 00:35:15,359 think it's way more compelling to say 873 00:35:19,490 --> 00:35:17,339 this kind of stuff prob may exist in the 874 00:35:21,349 --> 00:35:19,500 hands of the church 875 00:35:23,390 --> 00:35:21,359 um I'm not saying I agree with that but 876 00:35:25,190 --> 00:35:23,400 I am saying that just from the 877 00:35:27,410 --> 00:35:25,200 perspective of this discussion like I'm 878 00:35:28,730 --> 00:35:27,420 not sure I'd even assign this purely to 879 00:35:31,190 --> 00:35:28,740 the government 880 00:35:34,490 --> 00:35:31,200 right I mean that makes sense to me it 881 00:35:37,609 --> 00:35:34,500 depends on yeah what the origin of 882 00:35:39,829 --> 00:35:37,619 disclosure will be what does it look 883 00:35:43,250 --> 00:35:39,839 like for there to be disclosure is it 884 00:35:45,290 --> 00:35:43,260 people just presenting uh with personal 885 00:35:47,150 --> 00:35:45,300 accounts of what they've seen and done 886 00:35:49,550 --> 00:35:47,160 because we've had that enough times dude 887 00:35:52,430 --> 00:35:49,560 well how how extensive does the evidence 888 00:35:54,589 --> 00:35:52,440 actually have to be by what institutions 889 00:35:56,150 --> 00:35:54,599 both governmental private Etc like 890 00:35:58,430 --> 00:35:56,160 before there's actually common 891 00:36:00,829 --> 00:35:58,440 acceptance of this idea right like we 892 00:36:02,810 --> 00:36:00,839 saw with kovid dude like germ Theory 893 00:36:04,790 --> 00:36:02,820 isn't even accepted by huge portions of 894 00:36:06,950 --> 00:36:04,800 the population plus the sort of 895 00:36:08,569 --> 00:36:06,960 anti-intellectual anti-leadist event 896 00:36:10,250 --> 00:36:08,579 that's like super common especially in 897 00:36:13,250 --> 00:36:10,260 America Campbell 898 00:36:14,990 --> 00:36:13,260 um this notion that like there is any 899 00:36:17,030 --> 00:36:15,000 institution or Collective of 900 00:36:19,190 --> 00:36:17,040 Institutions that could provide any kind 901 00:36:21,530 --> 00:36:19,200 of evidence of any caliber that would 902 00:36:24,410 --> 00:36:21,540 largely convince the human population to 903 00:36:25,970 --> 00:36:24,420 me is like that ship has sailed it just 904 00:36:27,290 --> 00:36:25,980 seems impossible to me at this point I 905 00:36:28,550 --> 00:36:27,300 think we live in such a fractured 906 00:36:31,010 --> 00:36:28,560 reality 907 00:36:33,109 --> 00:36:31,020 um is that there's basically no 908 00:36:34,849 --> 00:36:33,119 narrative that could be presented even 909 00:36:36,710 --> 00:36:34,859 with extremely compelling evidence that 910 00:36:40,150 --> 00:36:36,720 would be understood and believed by even 911 00:36:42,770 --> 00:36:40,160 a majority of the population 912 00:36:44,990 --> 00:36:42,780 sorry I just want to say the UFO subject 913 00:36:47,030 --> 00:36:45,000 is weird in the sense that it's like 914 00:36:48,890 --> 00:36:47,040 maybe one of the only conspiracy 915 00:36:51,470 --> 00:36:48,900 cultures I could think of where the like 916 00:36:55,870 --> 00:36:51,480 the main goal is to like get the 917 00:36:58,190 --> 00:36:55,880 government to validate the views yeah 918 00:36:59,930 --> 00:36:58,200 do you think that that at least in part 919 00:37:01,370 --> 00:36:59,940 comes from that that idea that I talk 920 00:37:03,349 --> 00:37:01,380 about where 921 00:37:05,870 --> 00:37:03,359 um you know in our society we're 922 00:37:07,849 --> 00:37:05,880 accustomed to kind of uh instant instant 923 00:37:10,609 --> 00:37:07,859 gratification and not only that but uh 924 00:37:13,069 --> 00:37:10,619 always seeking an authority and I think 925 00:37:14,329 --> 00:37:13,079 the UFO space kind of has a lack of a 926 00:37:16,550 --> 00:37:14,339 true Authority because there's nothing 927 00:37:18,950 --> 00:37:16,560 yeah we need a daddy to hold our hands 928 00:37:20,569 --> 00:37:18,960 right so not only do we put some of 929 00:37:23,510 --> 00:37:20,579 these figures up on pedestals these 930 00:37:25,190 --> 00:37:23,520 media figures but we also kind of insist 931 00:37:27,530 --> 00:37:25,200 that the government is the authority and 932 00:37:29,450 --> 00:37:27,540 we demand the answer from them I wonder 933 00:37:31,310 --> 00:37:29,460 if that's kind of like the push that's 934 00:37:33,470 --> 00:37:31,320 pushed disclosure around since at least 935 00:37:34,550 --> 00:37:33,480 the 50s like Kehoe and stuff whining 936 00:37:37,069 --> 00:37:34,560 about it 937 00:37:39,710 --> 00:37:37,079 and it's always been kind of imminent 938 00:37:42,650 --> 00:37:39,720 and on that Horizon for 70 plus years 939 00:37:45,410 --> 00:37:42,660 and yes you really don't know anything 940 00:37:47,569 --> 00:37:45,420 else how much does this entire Arc 941 00:37:49,849 --> 00:37:47,579 mirror 942 00:37:51,770 --> 00:37:49,859 um the sort of archetypes associated 943 00:37:53,930 --> 00:37:51,780 with like the Redemption Arc of Christ 944 00:37:56,510 --> 00:37:53,940 right like there is something coming 945 00:37:58,550 --> 00:37:56,520 that is going to redeem us that is going 946 00:38:00,349 --> 00:37:58,560 to explain everything that is literally 947 00:38:01,670 --> 00:38:00,359 going to save us from ourselves right 948 00:38:03,650 --> 00:38:01,680 you see some of these narratives around 949 00:38:04,970 --> 00:38:03,660 like oh they would intervene if there 950 00:38:07,190 --> 00:38:04,980 was a nuclear attack or that would 951 00:38:09,050 --> 00:38:07,200 intervene uh yes we should definitely 952 00:38:11,270 --> 00:38:09,060 get drunk by a campfire sometime I'm a 953 00:38:13,430 --> 00:38:11,280 lot of fun in those circumstances 954 00:38:14,870 --> 00:38:13,440 um we should do we should do an ins ce5 955 00:38:15,670 --> 00:38:14,880 Excursion 956 00:38:18,170 --> 00:38:15,680 um 957 00:38:21,829 --> 00:38:18,180 I lost my train of thought this is what 958 00:38:24,410 --> 00:38:21,839 happens yes people commenting on stuff 959 00:38:30,829 --> 00:38:28,250 yeah UFOs goddamn whatever yeah whatever 960 00:38:32,870 --> 00:38:30,839 well yeah disclosure disclosure is 961 00:38:34,430 --> 00:38:32,880 redemption Arc right this idea that like 962 00:38:36,170 --> 00:38:34,440 this is something that's coming to 963 00:38:37,670 --> 00:38:36,180 basically shoehorn us out of the 964 00:38:39,050 --> 00:38:37,680 absolutely miserable situation we've 965 00:38:42,230 --> 00:38:39,060 managed to put ourselves in the rest of 966 00:38:43,609 --> 00:38:42,240 humanity in yeah um and uh again Nick 967 00:38:45,829 --> 00:38:43,619 this is what you're talking about right 968 00:38:48,170 --> 00:38:45,839 this idea of the UFO daddy that swoops 969 00:38:49,490 --> 00:38:48,180 in you know is the key Authority and 970 00:38:51,530 --> 00:38:49,500 takes care of us and that's it but 971 00:38:53,569 --> 00:38:51,540 that's dude that's such a Christian idea 972 00:38:55,190 --> 00:38:53,579 I say this is a Jew right like that's 973 00:38:57,290 --> 00:38:55,200 such a Christian idea of like having 974 00:39:00,170 --> 00:38:57,300 this Redemptive figure come in and fix 975 00:39:01,609 --> 00:39:00,180 stuff for you instead of being like nope 976 00:39:03,290 --> 00:39:01,619 it is this world and we have to deal 977 00:39:07,069 --> 00:39:03,300 with it right here 978 00:39:08,750 --> 00:39:07,079 you know yeah the history of the subject 979 00:39:11,450 --> 00:39:08,760 as it's treated by the government 980 00:39:14,150 --> 00:39:11,460 certainly contradicts The Core Essence 981 00:39:18,470 --> 00:39:14,160 of the disclosure narrative we have for 982 00:39:22,790 --> 00:39:18,480 example Roswell the you know crash there 983 00:39:25,609 --> 00:39:22,800 is probably the the central unifying 984 00:39:29,329 --> 00:39:25,619 moment in a lot of the modern UFO 985 00:39:31,849 --> 00:39:29,339 cultural uh psychology and the 986 00:39:33,230 --> 00:39:31,859 government was pretty open about that in 987 00:39:35,569 --> 00:39:33,240 the 90s when they actually finally did 988 00:39:38,150 --> 00:39:35,579 an investigation into it right the 989 00:39:39,710 --> 00:39:38,160 Congress and stuff the that came out and 990 00:39:41,750 --> 00:39:39,720 was like oh yeah this is part of this uh 991 00:39:43,069 --> 00:39:41,760 top secret project it's not a weather 992 00:39:46,670 --> 00:39:43,079 balloon because we're tracking weather 993 00:39:48,170 --> 00:39:46,680 it's a much larger kind of balloon uh 994 00:39:49,970 --> 00:39:48,180 with a lot of like radar reflectors and 995 00:39:52,370 --> 00:39:49,980 all this stuff and they got down to the 996 00:39:54,109 --> 00:39:52,380 point where the little icons that people 997 00:39:56,109 --> 00:39:54,119 were drawing from remembering seeing it 998 00:39:58,970 --> 00:39:56,119 on the pieces of 999 00:40:01,310 --> 00:39:58,980 materials from the i-beams it's traced 1000 00:40:03,890 --> 00:40:01,320 back to the the type of tape that was 1001 00:40:05,690 --> 00:40:03,900 used by the scientist who uh put it 1002 00:40:07,970 --> 00:40:05,700 together physically 1003 00:40:12,170 --> 00:40:07,980 um you know a very compelling 1004 00:40:14,390 --> 00:40:12,180 um and that's not accepted at all by the 1005 00:40:17,150 --> 00:40:14,400 majority of this community that is 1006 00:40:19,329 --> 00:40:17,160 looking for disclosure to happen and so 1007 00:40:21,710 --> 00:40:19,339 like there are these very deep 1008 00:40:23,930 --> 00:40:21,720 contradictions where when you get 1009 00:40:27,410 --> 00:40:23,940 something that could be said to be a 1010 00:40:29,930 --> 00:40:27,420 kind of disclosure I.E yeah like 1011 00:40:31,490 --> 00:40:29,940 originally like the base did say it was 1012 00:40:33,470 --> 00:40:31,500 a flying saucer that crashed like 1013 00:40:35,870 --> 00:40:33,480 looking back on it it looks like maybe 1014 00:40:37,910 --> 00:40:35,880 the Intel officer and the commander 1015 00:40:40,370 --> 00:40:37,920 panic because they realized they had 1016 00:40:43,010 --> 00:40:40,380 like a really top secret thing on their 1017 00:40:45,349 --> 00:40:43,020 hands like I don't but it's it's like we 1018 00:40:48,470 --> 00:40:45,359 it sort of flips it around and 1019 00:40:50,990 --> 00:40:48,480 what do we do with that where if if 1020 00:40:53,210 --> 00:40:51,000 disclosure day comes and then you just 1021 00:40:56,050 --> 00:40:53,220 have a panel where people come out and 1022 00:40:57,950 --> 00:40:56,060 sort of say things of 1023 00:41:00,589 --> 00:40:57,960 validating certain beliefs maybe 1024 00:41:02,030 --> 00:41:00,599 rejecting others it's not going to end 1025 00:41:04,010 --> 00:41:02,040 with anything and then there's just 1026 00:41:05,870 --> 00:41:04,020 going to be an endless push forward 1027 00:41:08,390 --> 00:41:05,880 isn't there 1028 00:41:10,670 --> 00:41:08,400 I've noticed that like another cryo kind 1029 00:41:12,290 --> 00:41:10,680 of Tandem with disclosure is for science 1030 00:41:14,150 --> 00:41:12,300 to 1031 00:41:16,190 --> 00:41:14,160 either take this seriously or 1032 00:41:18,530 --> 00:41:16,200 investigate it and I want to know 1033 00:41:20,390 --> 00:41:18,540 uh if either of you have any 1034 00:41:23,450 --> 00:41:20,400 um suggestions on how that would happen 1035 00:41:25,550 --> 00:41:23,460 because I kind of see the entirety of 1036 00:41:28,970 --> 00:41:25,560 the UFO field as 1037 00:41:30,349 --> 00:41:28,980 you know witness testimony solely right 1038 00:41:34,910 --> 00:41:30,359 we don't have any 1039 00:41:35,810 --> 00:41:34,920 UFO residue or pieces really we don't 1040 00:41:39,050 --> 00:41:35,820 have 1041 00:41:41,270 --> 00:41:39,060 um flying sausages yeah any kind of uh 1042 00:41:44,630 --> 00:41:41,280 physical evidence to this so 1043 00:41:46,490 --> 00:41:44,640 so give this problem the 70-year problem 1044 00:41:49,069 --> 00:41:46,500 that we've kind of created not that 1045 00:41:50,630 --> 00:41:49,079 there's strict criteria for what these 1046 00:41:52,790 --> 00:41:50,640 UFOs are but like 1047 00:41:54,109 --> 00:41:52,800 you you have a scientist who's willing 1048 00:41:56,510 --> 00:41:54,119 to look at this what is what does this 1049 00:41:57,950 --> 00:41:56,520 person do what does the scientist do 1050 00:41:59,690 --> 00:41:57,960 right and also how do we bring in 1051 00:42:01,130 --> 00:41:59,700 scientists and academics that are like 1052 00:42:03,530 --> 00:42:01,140 totally [\h__\h] sorry totally 1053 00:42:07,670 --> 00:42:03,540 brainwormed with like 1054 00:42:09,770 --> 00:42:07,680 that's impossible right yeah can I say 1055 00:42:13,550 --> 00:42:09,780 this like I say this as the resident 1056 00:42:14,329 --> 00:42:13,560 like wootard basically like new person 1057 00:42:16,190 --> 00:42:14,339 um 1058 00:42:18,410 --> 00:42:16,200 but like how do we bring in people that 1059 00:42:22,550 --> 00:42:18,420 that like aren't but also on the other 1060 00:42:25,190 --> 00:42:22,560 side aren't so catastrophically 1061 00:42:28,010 --> 00:42:25,200 um welded to 1062 00:42:31,130 --> 00:42:28,020 other particular outcomes that they're 1063 00:42:32,510 --> 00:42:31,140 able to evaluate I mean I Thinking Out 1064 00:42:35,930 --> 00:42:32,520 Loud here I think the real way to do 1065 00:42:37,550 --> 00:42:35,940 this is rather than uh is basically not 1066 00:42:39,290 --> 00:42:37,560 just 1067 00:42:41,210 --> 00:42:39,300 um is through an interdisciplinary 1068 00:42:43,490 --> 00:42:41,220 approach but also through like a 1069 00:42:46,069 --> 00:42:43,500 cross-functional exploration right like 1070 00:42:49,190 --> 00:42:46,079 you have multiple disciplines and 1071 00:42:50,470 --> 00:42:49,200 thinkers in different fields represented 1072 00:42:52,670 --> 00:42:50,480 um 1073 00:42:54,829 --> 00:42:52,680 right like what does it actually mean to 1074 00:42:58,270 --> 00:42:54,839 do this right is it Anthropologist is it 1075 00:43:01,730 --> 00:42:58,280 folklorists is it uh 1076 00:43:04,550 --> 00:43:01,740 who is it from my perspective but but 1077 00:43:05,809 --> 00:43:04,560 like from the perspective of a a truth 1078 00:43:07,010 --> 00:43:05,819 Seeker or you have a Believer or an 1079 00:43:08,089 --> 00:43:07,020 experience or whatever you want to be 1080 00:43:11,450 --> 00:43:08,099 called 1081 00:43:14,030 --> 00:43:11,460 what what is it the the anyone sees 1082 00:43:15,650 --> 00:43:14,040 science doing like does anyone in the 1083 00:43:18,109 --> 00:43:15,660 chat have an idea either like what are 1084 00:43:19,970 --> 00:43:18,119 we doing we're really looking for 1085 00:43:22,069 --> 00:43:19,980 patterns and witness reports right 1086 00:43:23,630 --> 00:43:22,079 because like dude if you asked me like I 1087 00:43:26,150 --> 00:43:23,640 would say the process of like taking 1088 00:43:27,770 --> 00:43:26,160 pictures of the atmosphere is like a 1089 00:43:29,630 --> 00:43:27,780 Fool's errand we already know that 1090 00:43:31,609 --> 00:43:29,640 there's unusual and strange atmospheric 1091 00:43:33,730 --> 00:43:31,619 phenomena we know that there's plasma we 1092 00:43:36,710 --> 00:43:33,740 know that there's Steve 1093 00:43:38,569 --> 00:43:36,720 you know that these things exist 1094 00:43:40,609 --> 00:43:38,579 um that that stuff is completely 1095 00:43:41,690 --> 00:43:40,619 uninteresting and uncompelling to me at 1096 00:43:44,450 --> 00:43:41,700 this point because we've already 1097 00:43:47,210 --> 00:43:44,460 established that even if we can't 1098 00:43:49,990 --> 00:43:47,220 prove the existence of this phenomena to 1099 00:43:51,950 --> 00:43:50,000 the standards of Western Scientific 1100 00:43:54,050 --> 00:43:51,960 empiricism right like we didn't know 1101 00:43:55,790 --> 00:43:54,060 about ball no about ball lightning until 1102 00:43:59,329 --> 00:43:55,800 like 10 years ago 1103 00:44:00,650 --> 00:43:59,339 um like to me it requires 1104 00:44:02,870 --> 00:44:00,660 um 1105 00:44:04,130 --> 00:44:02,880 at the end to me the really cool stuff 1106 00:44:06,050 --> 00:44:04,140 would be if you could get the like 1107 00:44:07,430 --> 00:44:06,060 Raymond booties of the world taking this 1108 00:44:09,050 --> 00:44:07,440 kind of stuff seriously like the guys 1109 00:44:12,349 --> 00:44:09,060 who are studying like near-death 1110 00:44:14,030 --> 00:44:12,359 experiences out of body experiences 1111 00:44:16,130 --> 00:44:14,040 um and Consciousness right like what 1112 00:44:18,410 --> 00:44:16,140 makes the mind or the brain behave and 1113 00:44:20,510 --> 00:44:18,420 act in certain ways under particular 1114 00:44:21,349 --> 00:44:20,520 circumstances 1115 00:44:23,089 --> 00:44:21,359 um 1116 00:44:26,329 --> 00:44:23,099 because I just don't find the like 1117 00:44:29,109 --> 00:44:26,339 material atmospheric physics stuff 1118 00:44:33,770 --> 00:44:32,270 like like there's already tons of 1119 00:44:36,050 --> 00:44:33,780 evidence of this stuff but like there's 1120 00:44:37,849 --> 00:44:36,060 nothing necessarily mysterious about it 1121 00:44:39,829 --> 00:44:37,859 we just we know it exists like the 1122 00:44:42,470 --> 00:44:39,839 hesterlin lights you know well what 1123 00:44:46,190 --> 00:44:42,480 what's what's a falsifiable hypothesis 1124 00:44:54,650 --> 00:44:48,950 don't do this to me man there's the null 1125 00:44:58,970 --> 00:44:56,870 so I mean and that would that would 1126 00:45:00,770 --> 00:44:58,980 essentially be saying like these are 1127 00:45:02,450 --> 00:45:00,780 explainable objects that we don't have 1128 00:45:04,309 --> 00:45:02,460 enough information on and you can look 1129 00:45:06,650 --> 00:45:04,319 into those in some circumstances you can 1130 00:45:10,010 --> 00:45:06,660 solve them that's considered debunking 1131 00:45:12,050 --> 00:45:10,020 but I think that that is the closest way 1132 00:45:14,990 --> 00:45:12,060 you can treat the UFO problem with 1133 00:45:18,290 --> 00:45:15,000 science is by using all hypothesis by 1134 00:45:21,109 --> 00:45:18,300 conventional science yes right yeah so 1135 00:45:23,210 --> 00:45:21,119 it again I I see it more of the demand 1136 00:45:25,370 --> 00:45:23,220 for science is more of just a demand for 1137 00:45:28,250 --> 00:45:25,380 another type of authority to say yes 1138 00:45:31,130 --> 00:45:28,260 you're right that's an alien I confirm 1139 00:45:33,230 --> 00:45:31,140 this right more than actually like 1140 00:45:36,589 --> 00:45:33,240 looking at it scientifically in my 1141 00:45:38,990 --> 00:45:36,599 opinion right well the uh the study 1142 00:45:41,089 --> 00:45:39,000 within the government anyway we can look 1143 00:45:43,010 --> 00:45:41,099 at how how they approached it that it's 1144 00:45:45,890 --> 00:45:43,020 worthwhile taking a look at that they 1145 00:45:47,450 --> 00:45:45,900 started collecting witness reports and 1146 00:45:52,130 --> 00:45:47,460 they started categorizing what people 1147 00:45:54,470 --> 00:45:52,140 were reporting and then in uh it was 51 1148 00:45:57,770 --> 00:45:54,480 if I recall correctly they actually put 1149 00:45:59,569 --> 00:45:57,780 a team of people out at Los Alamos with 1150 00:46:01,370 --> 00:45:59,579 a variety of instruments though they 1151 00:46:03,109 --> 00:46:01,380 didn't provide adequate budgeted funding 1152 00:46:06,890 --> 00:46:03,119 for all of the instruments that were 1153 00:46:09,290 --> 00:46:06,900 requested to stake out the nuclear lab 1154 00:46:10,970 --> 00:46:09,300 where they had scientists reporting 1155 00:46:13,130 --> 00:46:10,980 observations of 1156 00:46:15,790 --> 00:46:13,140 green fireballs and things of that 1157 00:46:19,250 --> 00:46:15,800 nature uh that were behaving strangely 1158 00:46:21,230 --> 00:46:19,260 and they did they report project twinkle 1159 00:46:23,270 --> 00:46:21,240 and what it said was it seems that 1160 00:46:25,250 --> 00:46:23,280 there's something being observed Dr 1161 00:46:27,890 --> 00:46:25,260 Kaplan is one of the nuclear physicists 1162 00:46:29,809 --> 00:46:27,900 believes that they're natural phenomena 1163 00:46:31,910 --> 00:46:29,819 um you know and then they say we're 1164 00:46:34,309 --> 00:46:31,920 taking a serious look at the idea of 1165 00:46:35,930 --> 00:46:34,319 fireballs which Encompass a wide variety 1166 00:46:37,849 --> 00:46:35,940 of atmospheric phenomena including 1167 00:46:39,050 --> 00:46:37,859 meteor coming in and ball lighting and 1168 00:46:41,450 --> 00:46:39,060 things like that they say we're taking 1169 00:46:43,130 --> 00:46:41,460 serious look at this stuff because we're 1170 00:46:46,430 --> 00:46:43,140 worried that the Russians are ahead of 1171 00:46:47,930 --> 00:46:46,440 us on it and so that's that's why 1172 00:46:49,849 --> 00:46:47,940 they're taking it seriously and they say 1173 00:46:51,770 --> 00:46:49,859 uh we haven't made a conclusive 1174 00:46:53,750 --> 00:46:51,780 determination what we have determined is 1175 00:46:55,609 --> 00:46:53,760 that the sightings when we're actually 1176 00:46:58,130 --> 00:46:55,619 staking it out are at a much reduced 1177 00:47:00,170 --> 00:46:58,140 rate than when the reports are just 1178 00:47:02,390 --> 00:47:00,180 coming in without people staking it out 1179 00:47:03,890 --> 00:47:02,400 and there seemed to be this sort of set 1180 00:47:06,890 --> 00:47:03,900 of features that people are consistent 1181 00:47:08,870 --> 00:47:06,900 with reporting but we can't verify that 1182 00:47:11,210 --> 00:47:08,880 that exists so so they went out there 1183 00:47:14,809 --> 00:47:11,220 with Optical instruments uh they were 1184 00:47:16,790 --> 00:47:14,819 trying to get a shot of the things so so 1185 00:47:18,109 --> 00:47:16,800 they started with that perspective in 1186 00:47:20,329 --> 00:47:18,119 mind 1187 00:47:22,490 --> 00:47:20,339 to like sit there and try to like get a 1188 00:47:24,290 --> 00:47:22,500 photo and and that's something that we 1189 00:47:26,569 --> 00:47:24,300 see continuing 1190 00:47:29,630 --> 00:47:26,579 um into the public sphere when we start 1191 00:47:32,270 --> 00:47:29,640 looking at the origins of Private 1192 00:47:33,710 --> 00:47:32,280 Investigations and the first one that 1193 00:47:36,230 --> 00:47:33,720 was long-standing was the project 1194 00:47:39,890 --> 00:47:36,240 identification uh started by Professor 1195 00:47:42,050 --> 00:47:39,900 Harley Rutledge out of University of uh 1196 00:47:43,609 --> 00:47:42,060 Southeast Missouri if I recall correctly 1197 00:47:46,970 --> 00:47:43,619 I believe it was a solid state physicist 1198 00:47:49,010 --> 00:47:46,980 he stacked out a UFO flap for a couple 1199 00:47:51,109 --> 00:47:49,020 of years wrote a book uh I believe it 1200 00:47:53,750 --> 00:47:51,119 was called project identification he 1201 00:47:55,849 --> 00:47:53,760 reported very similar objects to what 1202 00:47:58,370 --> 00:47:55,859 had been reported previously and then we 1203 00:48:00,470 --> 00:47:58,380 have hezdollen famously or infamously 1204 00:48:03,170 --> 00:48:00,480 Professor erling strand they ended up 1205 00:48:05,870 --> 00:48:03,180 doing long-term surveys there and the 1206 00:48:09,349 --> 00:48:05,880 descriptions were again similar 1207 00:48:10,790 --> 00:48:09,359 um so and then um at hezdalen we had a 1208 00:48:12,950 --> 00:48:10,800 we actually had him as what was the 1209 00:48:18,109 --> 00:48:12,960 first guest on our show uh because of me 1210 00:48:23,329 --> 00:48:20,930 asked him out I'm so glad you did all 1211 00:48:24,950 --> 00:48:23,339 right I said I got him on like four or 1212 00:48:27,190 --> 00:48:24,960 five shows like in one year there 1213 00:48:29,210 --> 00:48:27,200 because 1214 00:48:33,490 --> 00:48:29,220 out of the blank with them to you 1215 00:48:36,349 --> 00:48:33,500 recently uh a while ago yeah in UCR 1216 00:48:39,170 --> 00:48:36,359 is that on ucrb without Singularity lab 1217 00:48:41,030 --> 00:48:39,180 he was scheduled to be on UCR oh yeah 1218 00:48:42,950 --> 00:48:41,040 yeah so he's been he was around 1219 00:48:44,870 --> 00:48:42,960 um but uh anyway and he uh 1220 00:48:47,210 --> 00:48:44,880 astrophysicist he was there for a few 1221 00:48:48,530 --> 00:48:47,220 years in the early 2000s wrote a paper a 1222 00:48:50,089 --> 00:48:48,540 long-term scientific survey of the 1223 00:48:51,950 --> 00:48:50,099 hezdollen light phenomenon it was 1224 00:48:54,530 --> 00:48:51,960 published in the Journal of scientific 1225 00:48:57,230 --> 00:48:54,540 exploration which is not a it is 1226 00:48:59,630 --> 00:48:57,240 peer-reviewed but it produces a variety 1227 00:49:01,609 --> 00:48:59,640 it's not a good standard but it's not 1228 00:49:05,089 --> 00:49:01,619 the worst either it's not a natural 1229 00:49:07,670 --> 00:49:05,099 science yes it's not Natural Science 1230 00:49:08,690 --> 00:49:07,680 it's sort of like Paranormal phenomena 1231 00:49:10,550 --> 00:49:08,700 stuff 1232 00:49:12,770 --> 00:49:10,560 um you know but anyway his reports 1233 00:49:16,190 --> 00:49:12,780 describes very similar characteristics 1234 00:49:17,690 --> 00:49:16,200 but then he says uh you know the most uh 1235 00:49:19,550 --> 00:49:17,700 probable explanation for a number of 1236 00:49:21,650 --> 00:49:19,560 these observations is an electrochemical 1237 00:49:23,030 --> 00:49:21,660 model for ball lightning in any cites a 1238 00:49:24,950 --> 00:49:23,040 variety of the papers over the last 1239 00:49:28,190 --> 00:49:24,960 couple of years that demonstrate the 1240 00:49:30,470 --> 00:49:28,200 plausibility uh mechanistically of an 1241 00:49:32,630 --> 00:49:30,480 object like that occurring and then in 1242 00:49:35,329 --> 00:49:32,640 the decade and a half after that then we 1243 00:49:37,370 --> 00:49:35,339 had a wide variety of replicable 1244 00:49:39,230 --> 00:49:37,380 experiments showing uh plurality of 1245 00:49:41,870 --> 00:49:39,240 different ways of producing all 1246 00:49:43,430 --> 00:49:41,880 lightning phenomena in lab scenarios in 1247 00:49:45,230 --> 00:49:43,440 normal atmospheric conditions that would 1248 00:49:46,910 --> 00:49:45,240 exist in nature and then we have the 1249 00:49:48,050 --> 00:49:46,920 2014 optical and spectral 1250 00:49:50,030 --> 00:49:48,060 characteristics of all lightning 1251 00:49:52,030 --> 00:49:50,040 published in physical review letters 1252 00:49:57,010 --> 00:49:52,040 where they actually got 1253 00:50:00,230 --> 00:49:57,020 this in my ears man am I Whispering yeah 1254 00:50:03,230 --> 00:50:00,240 the optical ones 1255 00:50:04,790 --> 00:50:03,240 it all uh yeah so so there is this sort 1256 00:50:07,790 --> 00:50:04,800 of consistent theme where there's this 1257 00:50:10,790 --> 00:50:07,800 core uh observations 1258 00:50:14,030 --> 00:50:10,800 um it's reminding me of a few of the the 1259 00:50:18,530 --> 00:50:14,040 memos from the CIA relating to the 1260 00:50:22,069 --> 00:50:18,540 Washington uh 1952 uh DC flyover events 1261 00:50:23,329 --> 00:50:22,079 in July when they're uh a bunch of memos 1262 00:50:24,650 --> 00:50:23,339 and they talk about 1263 00:50:26,569 --> 00:50:24,660 um I've gotta actually maybe I'll just 1264 00:50:29,270 --> 00:50:26,579 share the screen and I can show you but 1265 00:50:31,670 --> 00:50:29,280 um it's like they describe what they're 1266 00:50:34,130 --> 00:50:31,680 looking for and it's similar to Dr jail 1267 00:50:36,950 --> 00:50:34,140 and heinek when he describes exactly 1268 00:50:40,790 --> 00:50:36,960 what he believes as the core residual of 1269 00:50:45,290 --> 00:50:40,800 cases with a common set of features 1270 00:50:47,569 --> 00:50:45,300 um let's see here share here we go so 1271 00:50:49,069 --> 00:50:47,579 this is uh yeah the memos computer UFO 1272 00:50:50,450 --> 00:50:49,079 Network out them 1273 00:50:51,829 --> 00:50:50,460 um and here we go let's see I just took 1274 00:50:55,370 --> 00:50:51,839 them out of there but you can go through 1275 00:50:57,650 --> 00:50:55,380 so let's see here grouped broadly as 1276 00:50:59,510 --> 00:50:57,660 visual radar confined visual radar two 1277 00:51:01,190 --> 00:50:59,520 major Clauses first spherical or 1278 00:51:04,549 --> 00:51:01,200 elliptical usually bright or metallic 1279 00:51:07,190 --> 00:51:04,559 luster some small estimated uh you know 1280 00:51:08,930 --> 00:51:07,200 most estimated 100 feet let's see here 1281 00:51:11,390 --> 00:51:08,940 there are variants such as Torpedoes 1282 00:51:13,849 --> 00:51:11,400 triangulars pencils even mattress shapes 1283 00:51:16,190 --> 00:51:13,859 they these are all daylight reportings 1284 00:51:18,950 --> 00:51:16,200 the second visual group all night 1285 00:51:21,109 --> 00:51:18,960 recording consists of lights and very of 1286 00:51:23,329 --> 00:51:21,119 and various luminosities such as green 1287 00:51:25,190 --> 00:51:23,339 flaming red or blue white Fireballs 1288 00:51:26,450 --> 00:51:25,200 moving points of light and luminous 1289 00:51:28,190 --> 00:51:26,460 streamers 1290 00:51:30,170 --> 00:51:28,200 and then it says no no debris or 1291 00:51:34,250 --> 00:51:30,180 material evidence has ever been recorded 1292 00:51:35,870 --> 00:51:34,260 so they are describing something they're 1293 00:51:37,549 --> 00:51:35,880 describing these lights 1294 00:51:40,190 --> 00:51:37,559 when we look at 1295 00:51:41,809 --> 00:51:40,200 you know modern reports we see something 1296 00:51:43,190 --> 00:51:41,819 very similar descriptions of these 1297 00:51:45,470 --> 00:51:43,200 lights 1298 00:51:47,270 --> 00:51:45,480 um when we go to other 1299 00:51:48,410 --> 00:51:47,280 memos and documents from inside the 1300 00:51:49,970 --> 00:51:48,420 government they're describing something 1301 00:51:51,849 --> 00:51:49,980 very similar 1302 00:51:54,290 --> 00:51:51,859 um and if I can just find Jay Dr 1303 00:51:55,910 --> 00:51:54,300 heinek's descriptions here we go yeah 1304 00:51:57,770 --> 00:51:55,920 his descriptions 1305 00:51:59,329 --> 00:51:57,780 the same classification and I don't 1306 00:52:00,650 --> 00:51:59,339 think this was in 72 when he published 1307 00:52:02,390 --> 00:52:00,660 this I'm pretty sure that these CA 1308 00:52:03,770 --> 00:52:02,400 members were not yet actually released I 1309 00:52:05,150 --> 00:52:03,780 believe it was in 79 they got released 1310 00:52:06,770 --> 00:52:05,160 so he actually created a classification 1311 00:52:07,970 --> 00:52:06,780 distinct from the secrets yeah that all 1312 00:52:09,470 --> 00:52:07,980 right is identical 1313 00:52:11,809 --> 00:52:09,480 so he goes nocturnal lights daylight 1314 00:52:14,329 --> 00:52:11,819 discs so then he describes uh 1315 00:52:16,910 --> 00:52:14,339 at night only the brightness color and 1316 00:52:18,589 --> 00:52:16,920 motion of a light are reported rarely is 1317 00:52:20,450 --> 00:52:18,599 the object noted to which the light is 1318 00:52:22,370 --> 00:52:20,460 presumably attached this is purely an 1319 00:52:24,710 --> 00:52:22,380 assumption the UFO may be nothing more 1320 00:52:26,930 --> 00:52:24,720 than the light and you know it just goes 1321 00:52:28,490 --> 00:52:26,940 on but it's like these objects it's like 1322 00:52:31,370 --> 00:52:28,500 it's not a flying software that you 1323 00:52:33,890 --> 00:52:31,380 think of it's a uniformly glowing light 1324 00:52:36,230 --> 00:52:33,900 of various colors that exhibits the 1325 00:52:38,270 --> 00:52:36,240 features that people say the you know 1326 00:52:40,069 --> 00:52:38,280 spaceships are doing 1327 00:52:41,990 --> 00:52:40,079 so you know so when we're looking at 1328 00:52:44,750 --> 00:52:42,000 disclosure what do we uh what do we do 1329 00:52:47,329 --> 00:52:44,760 with that right like that what was the 1330 00:52:49,849 --> 00:52:47,339 reaction to any of these reports from 1331 00:52:52,549 --> 00:52:49,859 the government about UFOs they weren't 1332 00:52:54,950 --> 00:52:52,559 trusted right yes it's only the one that 1333 00:52:56,750 --> 00:52:54,960 confirms uh your suspicions that you're 1334 00:52:58,430 --> 00:52:56,760 going to believe like you have to 1335 00:53:00,829 --> 00:52:58,440 reflect on that and 1336 00:53:04,150 --> 00:53:00,839 be kind of aware 1337 00:53:06,290 --> 00:53:04,160 yes absolutely and uh 1338 00:53:11,470 --> 00:53:06,300 did uh did either of you see that 1339 00:53:16,270 --> 00:53:14,210 what people actually think UFOs are or 1340 00:53:19,370 --> 00:53:16,280 like what percentage 1341 00:53:21,049 --> 00:53:19,380 it was yeah I said what what percentage 1342 00:53:24,170 --> 00:53:21,059 of reported cases do you think are 1343 00:53:25,970 --> 00:53:24,180 misidentifications or hoaxes I think I 1344 00:53:28,490 --> 00:53:25,980 and a lot of people think like hoaxes 1345 00:53:30,710 --> 00:53:28,500 are a very small percentage yes I agree 1346 00:53:32,150 --> 00:53:30,720 I mean like they get a lot of uh 1347 00:53:33,950 --> 00:53:32,160 publicity and stuff like they don't they 1348 00:53:38,210 --> 00:53:33,960 don't make very many reported cases so 1349 00:53:40,190 --> 00:53:38,220 like I I got about 400 replies which you 1350 00:53:42,049 --> 00:53:40,200 know isn't like a huge sample size but 1351 00:53:44,150 --> 00:53:42,059 we are talking about not a huge 1352 00:53:46,849 --> 00:53:44,160 community and the majority of the 1353 00:53:50,829 --> 00:53:46,859 answers were somewhere between 80 to 1354 00:53:53,150 --> 00:53:50,839 like 95 to 99 percent 1355 00:53:55,010 --> 00:53:53,160 meanwhile these and 1356 00:53:57,589 --> 00:53:55,020 these weren't just skeptic responses 1357 00:54:00,230 --> 00:53:57,599 I've got uh friends on all sides of this 1358 00:54:02,390 --> 00:54:00,240 and um they all kind of agree there's a 1359 00:54:04,150 --> 00:54:02,400 consensus between everyone like the 1360 00:54:06,589 --> 00:54:04,160 majority of these are 1361 00:54:08,450 --> 00:54:06,599 misinterpretations misidentifications 1362 00:54:10,910 --> 00:54:08,460 but I think there's some kind of 1363 00:54:12,230 --> 00:54:10,920 Disconnect When the UFO proponents are 1364 00:54:14,390 --> 00:54:12,240 saying this and I did follow up with 1365 00:54:17,930 --> 00:54:14,400 this how does that make you feel about 1366 00:54:20,089 --> 00:54:17,940 witness testimony since the majority if 1367 00:54:22,010 --> 00:54:20,099 you know the overwhelming majority of 1368 00:54:23,510 --> 00:54:22,020 the data in this field is witness 1369 00:54:26,510 --> 00:54:23,520 testimony 1370 00:54:29,870 --> 00:54:26,520 I and I mentioned this in regard to that 1371 00:54:32,630 --> 00:54:29,880 uh that hearing with um Kirkpatrick 1372 00:54:35,150 --> 00:54:32,640 where the majority of these reports 1373 00:54:37,430 --> 00:54:35,160 being reported by service members these 1374 00:54:39,950 --> 00:54:37,440 trained Witnesses are of misidentified 1375 00:54:42,530 --> 00:54:39,960 things it really illustrates how easy 1376 00:54:45,109 --> 00:54:42,540 this is to happen like people don't have 1377 00:54:46,970 --> 00:54:45,119 you know a good look at things in 2020 1378 00:54:48,829 --> 00:54:46,980 Vision constantly you know what I mean 1379 00:54:51,170 --> 00:54:48,839 like you you cannot get good looks at 1380 00:54:52,370 --> 00:54:51,180 things and your brain kind of fills it 1381 00:54:55,849 --> 00:54:52,380 in 1382 00:54:58,790 --> 00:54:55,859 if it's so simple how how can we 1383 00:55:01,250 --> 00:54:58,800 in one hand say that say you know 90 of 1384 00:55:03,349 --> 00:55:01,260 these are misidentifications but we 1385 00:55:04,790 --> 00:55:03,359 we need scientists to look at this data 1386 00:55:07,430 --> 00:55:04,800 but it's all witness testimony like 1387 00:55:09,109 --> 00:55:07,440 witness testimony only gives us 1388 00:55:10,910 --> 00:55:09,119 the witness's interpretation of the 1389 00:55:13,130 --> 00:55:10,920 event not the reality of it but it also 1390 00:55:15,230 --> 00:55:13,140 is subject to change over time to 1391 00:55:18,950 --> 00:55:15,240 exaggerate over time I've shown 1392 00:55:21,109 --> 00:55:18,960 privately you two an example of this 1393 00:55:23,030 --> 00:55:21,119 over the last 20 years a witness 1394 00:55:24,829 --> 00:55:23,040 testimony changing 1395 00:55:26,690 --> 00:55:24,839 it uh it was personal conversation with 1396 00:55:28,190 --> 00:55:26,700 a witness I don't want to show it on 1397 00:55:29,329 --> 00:55:28,200 here or anything but cable you recall 1398 00:55:32,089 --> 00:55:29,339 this right 1399 00:55:35,150 --> 00:55:32,099 had to do with uh the lights being seen 1400 00:55:37,250 --> 00:55:35,160 and how they were depicted later uh via 1401 00:55:39,290 --> 00:55:37,260 CGI if you recall I don't want to get 1402 00:55:41,270 --> 00:55:39,300 too far into that okay yeah you know you 1403 00:55:42,530 --> 00:55:41,280 know what I'm talking about yes yeah we 1404 00:55:43,130 --> 00:55:42,540 have we have 1405 00:55:45,950 --> 00:55:43,140 um 1406 00:55:48,049 --> 00:55:45,960 one of the most imperfect forms of data 1407 00:55:49,849 --> 00:55:48,059 that's you know not only subject to 1408 00:55:51,230 --> 00:55:49,859 interpretation but subject to change 1409 00:55:53,390 --> 00:55:51,240 over time 1410 00:55:55,309 --> 00:55:53,400 Witnesses yeah 1411 00:55:58,490 --> 00:55:55,319 um but that but that's all we have so 1412 00:56:00,349 --> 00:55:58,500 like how would science work with that 1413 00:56:01,849 --> 00:56:00,359 from this standpoint you give this to a 1414 00:56:04,069 --> 00:56:01,859 New Scientist like I was saying earlier 1415 00:56:06,290 --> 00:56:04,079 what are we doing here 1416 00:56:09,109 --> 00:56:06,300 what's what's the 1417 00:56:10,849 --> 00:56:09,119 what do you do with it and why does 1418 00:56:14,950 --> 00:56:10,859 this kind of circles back to the 1419 00:56:17,750 --> 00:56:14,960 beginning what is the purpose of ufology 1420 00:56:20,809 --> 00:56:17,760 why do we why do we do it because what I 1421 00:56:22,910 --> 00:56:20,819 see ufology as is less of a 1422 00:56:26,450 --> 00:56:22,920 less of a academic 1423 00:56:28,130 --> 00:56:26,460 thing or a science and more of a more of 1424 00:56:29,809 --> 00:56:28,140 a fandom honestly and I don't mean to be 1425 00:56:32,569 --> 00:56:29,819 insulting but it's 1426 00:56:35,150 --> 00:56:32,579 it's a community of content consumption 1427 00:56:37,309 --> 00:56:35,160 watching UFO documentaries reading the 1428 00:56:39,470 --> 00:56:37,319 books it's yeah all this content 1429 00:56:42,950 --> 00:56:39,480 consumption and then that makes me 1430 00:56:45,890 --> 00:56:42,960 wonder what we are doing do are we 1431 00:56:47,870 --> 00:56:45,900 feeding the fire by creating content 1432 00:57:01,630 --> 00:56:47,880 just right how do we ethically engage 1433 00:57:04,970 --> 00:57:04,250 right this was you know this was 1434 00:57:10,069 --> 00:57:04,980 something 1435 00:57:12,109 --> 00:57:10,079 about a lot uh with Lou Jimenez 1436 00:57:13,970 --> 00:57:12,119 one-on-one he and I talked a lot about 1437 00:57:15,710 --> 00:57:13,980 sort of the ethics of engaging in this 1438 00:57:17,990 --> 00:57:15,720 kind of subject I mean this is something 1439 00:57:19,670 --> 00:57:18,000 I mean I come out this look 1440 00:57:21,290 --> 00:57:19,680 um in my research and writing on Art 1441 00:57:22,549 --> 00:57:21,300 Bell and Coast to Coast AM this is 1442 00:57:26,690 --> 00:57:22,559 something I struggle with immensely 1443 00:57:29,930 --> 00:57:26,700 because art was phenomenally formative 1444 00:57:31,690 --> 00:57:29,940 um for me both as a media figure and 1445 00:57:36,109 --> 00:57:31,700 intellectual figure and cultural figure 1446 00:57:37,270 --> 00:57:36,119 but also he laid the foundation of this 1447 00:57:39,950 --> 00:57:37,280 sort of 1448 00:57:42,589 --> 00:57:39,960 conspiratorial broad cloth that now 1449 00:57:44,990 --> 00:57:42,599 blankets huge swaths of American culture 1450 00:57:47,150 --> 00:57:45,000 and politics like he was the springboard 1451 00:57:49,069 --> 00:57:47,160 for Alex Jones he was the springboard 1452 00:57:51,950 --> 00:57:49,079 for Jimmy church and a lot of these 1453 00:57:53,870 --> 00:57:51,960 characters and like how do I write how 1454 00:57:55,370 --> 00:57:53,880 do I how do I do these things 1455 00:57:57,049 --> 00:57:55,380 simultaneously right like we're 1456 00:57:58,670 --> 00:57:57,059 grown-ups we have we're able to have 1457 00:58:00,650 --> 00:57:58,680 complex thoughts and engage with and 1458 00:58:02,990 --> 00:58:00,660 think about things in a sophisticated 1459 00:58:04,490 --> 00:58:03,000 fashion but like how do I engage and 1460 00:58:06,170 --> 00:58:04,500 think about something that was 1461 00:58:07,670 --> 00:58:06,180 personally so significant and so 1462 00:58:09,170 --> 00:58:07,680 valuable to me 1463 00:58:12,349 --> 00:58:09,180 um and understand it while also being 1464 00:58:15,470 --> 00:58:12,359 deeply critical about the uh long-term 1465 00:58:17,750 --> 00:58:15,480 repercussions of this media figure and 1466 00:58:19,910 --> 00:58:17,760 um how it has encroached on and deeply 1467 00:58:22,490 --> 00:58:19,920 deeply affected huge parts of our 1468 00:58:24,290 --> 00:58:22,500 political and social experience in this 1469 00:58:26,809 --> 00:58:24,300 country right like how can these two 1470 00:58:28,250 --> 00:58:26,819 things be at this be considered at the 1471 00:58:30,530 --> 00:58:28,260 same time 1472 00:58:32,690 --> 00:58:30,540 um and similarly like how do we talk 1473 00:58:35,030 --> 00:58:32,700 about how do we talk about this subject 1474 00:58:37,549 --> 00:58:35,040 and engage with it in good faith right 1475 00:58:39,289 --> 00:58:37,559 not as cynics not as detractors not as 1476 00:58:41,270 --> 00:58:39,299 individuals denigrating the subject or 1477 00:58:43,309 --> 00:58:41,280 experiences or anything else how do we 1478 00:58:45,589 --> 00:58:43,319 engage with this in good faith well also 1479 00:58:48,470 --> 00:58:45,599 being Discerning about the ideas and 1480 00:58:51,829 --> 00:58:48,480 Concepts that we legitimize right like I 1481 00:58:53,809 --> 00:58:51,839 think we do have responsibilities 1482 00:58:55,190 --> 00:58:53,819 um I I don't want to say collectively 1483 00:58:57,289 --> 00:58:55,200 because I do think it's important to 1484 00:58:59,510 --> 00:58:57,299 emphasize we're not monolithic here but 1485 00:59:01,309 --> 00:58:59,520 I I do think we we have an ins 1486 00:59:04,430 --> 00:59:01,319 responsibility and I certainly feel an 1487 00:59:07,370 --> 00:59:04,440 individual responsibility to 1488 00:59:10,970 --> 00:59:07,380 um make appropriate prioritization about 1489 00:59:12,470 --> 00:59:10,980 this subject and what I mean by this is 1490 00:59:16,130 --> 00:59:12,480 to not 1491 00:59:18,010 --> 00:59:16,140 um prioritize this subject over 1492 00:59:20,450 --> 00:59:18,020 um 1493 00:59:23,450 --> 00:59:20,460 views actions 1494 00:59:26,150 --> 00:59:23,460 and ideas that I otherwise find 1495 00:59:27,770 --> 00:59:26,160 abhorrent right so psychology is not a 1496 00:59:30,470 --> 00:59:27,780 trump card yet is what you're saying 1497 00:59:32,930 --> 00:59:30,480 yeah yeah or maybe maybe like Tucker 1498 00:59:34,609 --> 00:59:32,940 Carlson really sucks right like maybe 1499 00:59:36,170 --> 00:59:34,619 Tucker Carlson sucks and we shouldn't be 1500 00:59:38,630 --> 00:59:36,180 retweeting his show or whatever just 1501 00:59:39,250 --> 00:59:38,640 because Gary Nolan's on it 1502 00:59:41,569 --> 00:59:39,260 um 1503 00:59:43,010 --> 00:59:41,579 you know I don't know I it's so 1504 00:59:45,950 --> 00:59:43,020 complicated because it's a subject I 1505 00:59:48,230 --> 00:59:45,960 care deeply about and and personally and 1506 00:59:50,030 --> 00:59:48,240 intellectually so invested in but also I 1507 00:59:51,349 --> 00:59:50,040 struggle with being engaged with in so 1508 00:59:54,230 --> 00:59:51,359 many different levels as well and I'm 1509 00:59:56,329 --> 00:59:54,240 with you dude it is a it is largely a 1510 00:59:58,730 --> 00:59:56,339 community of content consumption but 1511 00:59:59,690 --> 00:59:58,740 that's like basically everything yeah in 1512 01:00:02,210 --> 00:59:59,700 the world 1513 01:00:03,710 --> 01:00:02,220 um I mean my my personal approach is I 1514 01:00:04,730 --> 01:00:03,720 only really engage with other people on 1515 01:00:06,289 --> 01:00:04,740 this subject if they're either 1516 01:00:08,089 --> 01:00:06,299 experiencers and talk to me a lot about 1517 01:00:10,430 --> 01:00:08,099 their stuff cool great love to hear it 1518 01:00:12,410 --> 01:00:10,440 want to talk about it or if there are 1519 01:00:14,870 --> 01:00:12,420 similar creators 1520 01:00:16,609 --> 01:00:14,880 um or thinkers in this space I don't 1521 01:00:18,589 --> 01:00:16,619 I've generally taken the approach of 1522 01:00:20,150 --> 01:00:18,599 like not engaging with the oil paloy of 1523 01:00:21,349 --> 01:00:20,160 people who just want to like blast out 1524 01:00:23,569 --> 01:00:21,359 their shitty opinions all over 1525 01:00:26,569 --> 01:00:23,579 everything like I don't 1526 01:00:30,170 --> 01:00:26,579 remember yeah like the common Folk 1527 01:00:33,650 --> 01:00:32,270 no I love the proletariat this is more 1528 01:00:35,890 --> 01:00:33,660 like the lump and this is more like the 1529 01:00:39,530 --> 01:00:35,900 lump in proletariat right 1530 01:00:40,849 --> 01:00:39,540 not not the proletariat themselves 1531 01:00:42,470 --> 01:00:40,859 um what do you think candle you've been 1532 01:00:46,130 --> 01:00:42,480 quiet for a minute 1533 01:00:49,010 --> 01:00:46,140 uh gosh what'd I think I think that's uh 1534 01:00:53,030 --> 01:00:49,020 my perspective is that I want to treat 1535 01:00:57,890 --> 01:00:53,040 this kind of like uh the history of 1536 01:00:59,930 --> 01:00:57,900 natural philosophy I think Dr heineck uh 1537 01:01:01,910 --> 01:00:59,940 you know as we know he was the chief 1538 01:01:04,730 --> 01:01:01,920 consultant for the Project Blue Book for 1539 01:01:07,130 --> 01:01:04,740 the US Air Force and the chairperson of 1540 01:01:09,010 --> 01:01:07,140 Northwest University's astronomy 1541 01:01:13,549 --> 01:01:09,020 Department Professor there 1542 01:01:15,890 --> 01:01:13,559 he uh frequently cited meteorites as a 1543 01:01:18,049 --> 01:01:15,900 very important thing that we should 1544 01:01:20,230 --> 01:01:18,059 learn from the discovery of meteorites 1545 01:01:24,109 --> 01:01:20,240 as a natural phenomenon 1546 01:01:27,230 --> 01:01:24,119 in 1803 there was something called the 1547 01:01:30,650 --> 01:01:27,240 legler El apostrophe aig-l-e meteor fall 1548 01:01:32,750 --> 01:01:30,660 in France where a meteor exploded in the 1549 01:01:34,670 --> 01:01:32,760 air and thousands of fragments ran down 1550 01:01:36,589 --> 01:01:34,680 that was considered the turning point 1551 01:01:39,470 --> 01:01:36,599 when the national academies of science 1552 01:01:43,089 --> 01:01:39,480 finally accepted that Stones could fall 1553 01:01:46,130 --> 01:01:43,099 from the sky even though there was no 1554 01:01:47,809 --> 01:01:46,140 sufficient plausible explanation for how 1555 01:01:49,010 --> 01:01:47,819 the stones would be in the sky they know 1556 01:01:50,329 --> 01:01:49,020 that gravity wouldn't make any sense for 1557 01:01:51,829 --> 01:01:50,339 the stones to be up there there was no 1558 01:01:53,990 --> 01:01:51,839 compelling explanation for why they 1559 01:01:57,349 --> 01:01:54,000 would be up there therefore you discount 1560 01:01:59,650 --> 01:01:57,359 the claims coming mostly from people in 1561 01:02:02,870 --> 01:01:59,660 the countryside and things like that 1562 01:02:04,849 --> 01:02:02,880 now if we were going out there and 1563 01:02:07,549 --> 01:02:04,859 picking up all these accounts from the 1564 01:02:09,049 --> 01:02:07,559 you know people in the countryside 1565 01:02:10,970 --> 01:02:09,059 they would be saying that they saw 1566 01:02:13,730 --> 01:02:10,980 angels 1567 01:02:17,510 --> 01:02:13,740 they would be saying we've seen them and 1568 01:02:19,970 --> 01:02:17,520 if we as natural philosophers were 1569 01:02:21,230 --> 01:02:19,980 saying well there's some compelling uh 1570 01:02:23,329 --> 01:02:21,240 papers out of the French national 1571 01:02:25,609 --> 01:02:23,339 Academy of Sciences that suggests that 1572 01:02:28,970 --> 01:02:25,619 something called the vacuum could exist 1573 01:02:31,430 --> 01:02:28,980 and maybe this is evidence for that 1574 01:02:32,930 --> 01:02:31,440 and then those people are taking us 1575 01:02:34,910 --> 01:02:32,940 being like we think you might actually 1576 01:02:36,289 --> 01:02:34,920 seen what you saw and then they're 1577 01:02:38,390 --> 01:02:36,299 saying these people these people are 1578 01:02:40,549 --> 01:02:38,400 verifying though we saw angels 1579 01:02:42,470 --> 01:02:40,559 I mean what do you do with that right 1580 01:02:44,870 --> 01:02:42,480 like and then a couple years later it's 1581 01:02:46,190 --> 01:02:44,880 like okay they're actually all these you 1582 01:02:48,650 --> 01:02:46,200 know thousands or whatever people 1583 01:02:50,930 --> 01:02:48,660 actually saw these things and uh you 1584 01:02:52,190 --> 01:02:50,940 know there's no satisfaction for those 1585 01:02:54,289 --> 01:02:52,200 people and then they're still insisting 1586 01:02:56,510 --> 01:02:54,299 with this all angels I imagine I don't 1587 01:02:58,430 --> 01:02:56,520 think that the 1588 01:02:59,750 --> 01:02:58,440 decision of the night that's actually an 1589 01:03:02,750 --> 01:02:59,760 interesting disclosure like the national 1590 01:03:06,130 --> 01:03:02,760 academies of Science in 1803 come out 1591 01:03:09,289 --> 01:03:06,140 and say oh the uh the Ethereal beings 1592 01:03:13,370 --> 01:03:09,299 the pure light beings are real 1593 01:03:16,250 --> 01:03:13,380 oh yeah the extraterrestrials are real 1594 01:03:17,930 --> 01:03:16,260 they aren't uh living but uh we we now 1595 01:03:21,470 --> 01:03:17,940 believe that those things are being seen 1596 01:03:23,990 --> 01:03:21,480 I mean that's a huge pivot and I think 1597 01:03:25,970 --> 01:03:24,000 high neck was right that there's a 1598 01:03:29,030 --> 01:03:25,980 lesson that can be drawn there because 1599 01:03:30,410 --> 01:03:29,040 if we only take the observations there's 1600 01:04:19,490 --> 01:03:30,420 a 1601 01:04:21,410 --> 01:04:19,500 things people just right you know they 1602 01:04:23,690 --> 01:04:21,420 exist but we don't have that exact thing 1603 01:04:25,130 --> 01:04:23,700 but what even when we have that thing we 1604 01:04:28,069 --> 01:04:25,140 already have papers that were published 1605 01:04:30,049 --> 01:04:28,079 by valet uh Dr valet and like the uh I 1606 01:04:32,690 --> 01:04:30,059 think it was what 2003 with Dr Eric 1607 01:04:35,750 --> 01:04:32,700 Davis where they already say 1608 01:04:38,990 --> 01:04:35,760 we think that the UFOs are mimicking 1609 01:04:40,849 --> 01:04:39,000 real natural phenomenon and so there is 1610 01:04:42,650 --> 01:04:40,859 always going to be this uh sort of 1611 01:04:44,569 --> 01:04:42,660 pushing forward of the narrative and 1612 01:04:46,190 --> 01:04:44,579 it's going to escape us uh no matter 1613 01:04:48,170 --> 01:04:46,200 what we do so it's an interesting point 1614 01:04:50,030 --> 01:04:48,180 I think there's value in 1615 01:04:52,190 --> 01:04:50,040 the traditional natural philosophy 1616 01:04:54,410 --> 01:04:52,200 skeptical approach skepticism has always 1617 01:04:57,849 --> 01:04:54,420 traditionally been completely aligned 1618 01:05:00,650 --> 01:04:57,859 with naturalization trying to explain 1619 01:05:04,190 --> 01:05:00,660 observations through 1620 01:05:05,450 --> 01:05:04,200 um yeah not natural means and uh you 1621 01:05:07,270 --> 01:05:05,460 know I think that there is value in 1622 01:05:09,890 --> 01:05:07,280 doing that with the subject 1623 01:05:11,030 --> 01:05:09,900 well Nick what about you uh do you think 1624 01:05:12,589 --> 01:05:11,040 that we're doing more harm than good 1625 01:05:14,109 --> 01:05:12,599 what's your thought 1626 01:05:16,250 --> 01:05:14,119 I don't 1627 01:05:20,210 --> 01:05:16,260 I'm not going to say that we're harming 1628 01:05:25,609 --> 01:05:22,789 um I don't know I don't I don't know 1629 01:05:28,130 --> 01:05:25,619 I don't see youthology or the UFO 1630 01:05:30,890 --> 01:05:28,140 Community changing ever 1631 01:05:32,750 --> 01:05:30,900 um there's always going to be things in 1632 01:05:36,109 --> 01:05:32,760 the air that we can't see because like I 1633 01:05:37,010 --> 01:05:36,119 said they're fleeting and Out Of Reach 1634 01:05:40,190 --> 01:05:37,020 um 1635 01:05:41,569 --> 01:05:40,200 I don't think any you know authority 1636 01:05:42,890 --> 01:05:41,579 figure coming out and saying no these 1637 01:05:45,410 --> 01:05:42,900 are all Mister identifications it's 1638 01:05:47,690 --> 01:05:45,420 going to do any good 1639 01:05:51,230 --> 01:05:47,700 um and while the like 1640 01:05:53,630 --> 01:05:51,240 the finer details in the uh the kind of 1641 01:05:55,730 --> 01:05:53,640 qualities and features of the UFOs might 1642 01:05:59,809 --> 01:05:55,740 change with Society like we're seeing it 1643 01:06:05,270 --> 01:06:02,150 uh I'm trying to think of another word 1644 01:06:07,789 --> 01:06:05,280 besides we but it's becoming more we in 1645 01:06:10,309 --> 01:06:07,799 my opinion the kind of yeah like 1646 01:06:12,770 --> 01:06:10,319 subjective basically so actually yeah 1647 01:06:16,130 --> 01:06:12,780 here's here's an example UFOs haunting 1648 01:06:18,109 --> 01:06:16,140 people I think is kind of a well 1649 01:06:20,150 --> 01:06:18,119 no there was a bit of that during the 1650 01:06:21,710 --> 01:06:20,160 abduction period of the 80s and 90s 1651 01:06:23,030 --> 01:06:21,720 there was like repeat abductors and 1652 01:06:24,589 --> 01:06:23,040 family lines and Bloodlines being 1653 01:06:27,289 --> 01:06:24,599 abducted and stuff like that but I'm 1654 01:06:29,870 --> 01:06:27,299 talking about more you know the uh the 1655 01:06:33,770 --> 01:06:29,880 space Poltergeist kind of aspect of it 1656 01:06:35,870 --> 01:06:33,780 the curse of them yeah so yeah so 1657 01:06:37,730 --> 01:06:35,880 so I see I see little changes like that 1658 01:06:39,230 --> 01:06:37,740 kind of like how you know right after 1659 01:06:41,089 --> 01:06:39,240 Sputnik we started seeing them 1660 01:06:42,770 --> 01:06:41,099 interfering with our cars and before 1661 01:06:45,710 --> 01:06:42,780 those like sensationalist newspaper 1662 01:06:48,349 --> 01:06:45,720 articles about the foreign Army's rays 1663 01:06:51,410 --> 01:06:48,359 that stop tanks and stuff like that so I 1664 01:06:54,349 --> 01:06:51,420 think syndrome will always kind of like 1665 01:06:56,510 --> 01:06:54,359 put our put our ideas of modernity on 1666 01:06:59,029 --> 01:06:56,520 these things near modernity 1667 01:07:01,069 --> 01:06:59,039 um but otherwise no it'll always always 1668 01:07:03,230 --> 01:07:01,079 be the same I think there will always be 1669 01:07:05,690 --> 01:07:03,240 new figures to take in that that 1670 01:07:07,849 --> 01:07:05,700 Authority vacuum I think people always 1671 01:07:11,990 --> 01:07:07,859 misidentify things 1672 01:07:13,789 --> 01:07:12,000 and we're the the whole story of nhi 1673 01:07:15,770 --> 01:07:13,799 coming in crafts and visiting us and 1674 01:07:17,809 --> 01:07:15,780 abducting us or observing us and the 1675 01:07:20,510 --> 01:07:17,819 government knowing is so ingrained in 1676 01:07:22,609 --> 01:07:20,520 our culture it's I I tell you guys this 1677 01:07:25,630 --> 01:07:22,619 all the time I watch uh old compilations 1678 01:07:29,210 --> 01:07:25,640 of commercials from like the 80s and 90s 1679 01:07:31,130 --> 01:07:29,220 you are so cool I watch it on this CR2 1680 01:07:33,710 --> 01:07:31,140 yeah I have a Roku attached to it that I 1681 01:07:35,270 --> 01:07:33,720 run through oh my God but anyway you are 1682 01:07:37,809 --> 01:07:35,280 you are such a type of guy it's 1683 01:07:41,210 --> 01:07:37,819 incredible I love it 1684 01:07:43,970 --> 01:07:41,220 the best time yeah the best type of guy 1685 01:07:46,849 --> 01:07:43,980 to be clear but my point in bringing 1686 01:07:47,870 --> 01:07:46,859 that up is uh that I in every 1687 01:07:50,750 --> 01:07:47,880 compilation there's at least one 1688 01:07:53,210 --> 01:07:50,760 commercial that features a flying saucer 1689 01:07:54,950 --> 01:07:53,220 with aliens coming out of it 1690 01:07:56,450 --> 01:07:54,960 every single one car commercials have 1691 01:07:58,789 --> 01:07:56,460 done this cereal commercials everything 1692 01:08:02,150 --> 01:07:58,799 it's part of our culture TV shows TV 1693 01:08:04,910 --> 01:08:02,160 episodes for disclosure Nick right it's 1694 01:08:05,990 --> 01:08:04,920 that slow drip but like I said I don't I 1695 01:08:08,450 --> 01:08:06,000 don't think that that's true because 1696 01:08:11,329 --> 01:08:08,460 who's doing that who's who's this cabal 1697 01:08:16,430 --> 01:08:14,390 dictating what's in commercials but also 1698 01:08:19,249 --> 01:08:16,440 like works on the crash team retrieval 1699 01:08:20,749 --> 01:08:19,259 unit at the government like 1700 01:08:22,309 --> 01:08:20,759 that doesn't make sense that would 1701 01:08:24,650 --> 01:08:22,319 involve so many people actually already 1702 01:08:28,070 --> 01:08:24,660 knowing that essentially disclosure 1703 01:08:30,349 --> 01:08:28,080 already happened yeah well I didn't uh 1704 01:08:33,229 --> 01:08:30,359 our friend well our friend uh didn't uh 1705 01:08:35,150 --> 01:08:33,239 Mr Elizondo say that disclosures already 1706 01:08:37,610 --> 01:08:35,160 happened like didn't you say something 1707 01:08:39,470 --> 01:08:37,620 like that I keep a question of like what 1708 01:08:40,729 --> 01:08:39,480 even constitutes disclosure right is it 1709 01:08:42,590 --> 01:08:40,739 just acknowledgment that things happen 1710 01:08:44,630 --> 01:08:42,600 that we don't know about or can identify 1711 01:08:46,249 --> 01:08:44,640 them yes it's definitely happened sure 1712 01:08:48,950 --> 01:08:46,259 right 1713 01:08:50,269 --> 01:08:48,960 I just uh yeah that's the other thing 1714 01:08:53,510 --> 01:08:50,279 and I think I've brought this up in 1715 01:08:55,849 --> 01:08:53,520 maybe every episode but the um 1716 01:08:57,650 --> 01:08:55,859 the fuzzy language that we all we all 1717 01:09:00,110 --> 01:08:57,660 use like no one's on the same page with 1718 01:09:02,209 --> 01:09:00,120 any of this stuff like a definition of 1719 01:09:05,329 --> 01:09:02,219 disclosure or what people think of UFOs 1720 01:09:07,370 --> 01:09:05,339 or what what anyone thinks UFOs are real 1721 01:09:08,689 --> 01:09:07,380 means you know you can get a million 1722 01:09:10,910 --> 01:09:08,699 different interpretations out of that 1723 01:09:13,249 --> 01:09:10,920 phrase and some people think that yeah 1724 01:09:15,349 --> 01:09:13,259 that is you know basically disclosure 1725 01:09:17,870 --> 01:09:15,359 when other people realize like 1726 01:09:19,970 --> 01:09:17,880 well yeah duh you know like yeah the 1727 01:09:22,990 --> 01:09:19,980 disclosure only happens when they have 1728 01:09:25,970 --> 01:09:23,000 explicitly disclosed these five things 1729 01:09:28,610 --> 01:09:25,980 right ah here we go 1730 01:09:29,990 --> 01:09:28,620 this sounds like some vague wishy-washy 1731 01:09:34,189 --> 01:09:30,000 [\h__\h] that doesn't actually mean 1732 01:09:38,809 --> 01:09:36,950 yeah yeah disclosures already happen but 1733 01:09:40,249 --> 01:09:38,819 it's also coming and it's also it's a 1734 01:09:41,870 --> 01:09:40,259 marathon and not a race and we're 1735 01:09:43,910 --> 01:09:41,880 nowhere near it and we're in the fifth 1736 01:09:45,349 --> 01:09:43,920 gear and we can only asymptotically 1737 01:09:48,829 --> 01:09:45,359 approach it but kind of are actually 1738 01:09:50,450 --> 01:09:48,839 interested right we're all Sisyphus I 1739 01:09:51,650 --> 01:09:50,460 guess 1740 01:09:54,770 --> 01:09:51,660 um yeah 1741 01:09:56,810 --> 01:09:54,780 I don't know I feel like 1742 01:09:59,090 --> 01:09:56,820 I don't think there's anything left in 1743 01:10:00,530 --> 01:09:59,100 my brain to say about UFOs anymore I 1744 01:10:01,850 --> 01:10:00,540 think I've spit it all out tonight 1745 01:10:04,790 --> 01:10:01,860 finally 1746 01:10:06,590 --> 01:10:04,800 I love it Nick yeah and this is good 1747 01:10:07,970 --> 01:10:06,600 because like we've been I mean we've 1748 01:10:10,070 --> 01:10:07,980 sort of been talking about broadening 1749 01:10:12,590 --> 01:10:10,080 The Horizon of the show right like 1750 01:10:14,750 --> 01:10:12,600 branching off of UFOs getting more into 1751 01:10:17,090 --> 01:10:14,760 like the weird study space I mean very 1752 01:10:19,310 --> 01:10:17,100 candidly just personally 1753 01:10:20,870 --> 01:10:19,320 um I think weird studies people are 1754 01:10:22,610 --> 01:10:20,880 maybe a bit more well-adjusted and less 1755 01:10:25,130 --> 01:10:22,620 psychotic than a lot of the UFO people 1756 01:10:26,689 --> 01:10:25,140 I've met that sounds nice yeah that 1757 01:10:28,669 --> 01:10:26,699 sounds really nice I love engaging with 1758 01:10:29,990 --> 01:10:28,679 like relatively normal well-socialized 1759 01:10:31,910 --> 01:10:30,000 humans 1760 01:10:34,189 --> 01:10:31,920 um but also 1761 01:10:36,290 --> 01:10:34,199 um I mean as I've said time and time 1762 01:10:38,450 --> 01:10:36,300 again like my approach to this subject 1763 01:10:41,750 --> 01:10:38,460 is largely metaphysical spiritual 1764 01:10:43,450 --> 01:10:41,760 immersion psychedelic Etc and like I 1765 01:10:47,390 --> 01:10:43,460 would love to talk more about 1766 01:10:51,649 --> 01:10:47,400 parapsychology and SCI phenomena and uh 1767 01:10:57,410 --> 01:10:53,810 um you know I I finally I can't believe 1768 01:11:00,290 --> 01:10:57,420 J shank isn't

01:11:23,100 against some kind of Sky watching uh 1781 01:11:28,490 --> 01:11:25,260 live stream I believe that no that 1782 01:11:30,950 --> 01:11:28,500 happens right after us that's the woofer 1783 01:11:32,450 --> 01:11:30,960 Wednesday with the weird studies guys 1784 01:11:33,950 --> 01:11:32,460 um we're kind of like the the foreplay 1785 01:11:35,810 --> 01:11:33,960 for that I think you basically go out 1786 01:11:37,490 --> 01:11:35,820 and try to do ce5 with like the other 1787 01:11:38,110 --> 01:11:37,500 podcast nerds 1788 01:11:44,930 --> 01:11:38,120 um 1789 01:11:47,750 --> 01:11:44,940 I was I was up against not having 1790 01:11:50,090 --> 01:11:47,760 Internet so 1791 01:11:52,070 --> 01:11:50,100 um she actually pretty much ruled 1792 01:11:54,290 --> 01:11:52,080 um anyway I digress so I was talking 1793 01:11:56,570 --> 01:11:54,300 about Jay because Jay just finished the 1794 01:11:59,149 --> 01:11:56,580 trickster in the Paranormal by uh 1795 01:12:01,370 --> 01:11:59,159 Gregory Hansen people have not read 1796 01:12:04,010 --> 01:12:01,380 those definitely read it I'm working on 1797 01:12:05,689 --> 01:12:04,020 it right now so first of all it is like 1798 01:12:07,910 --> 01:12:05,699 I had no idea how dense it was it's 1799 01:12:09,950 --> 01:12:07,920 basically like a 500 page academic paper 1800 01:12:12,050 --> 01:12:09,960 very dense very good I feel like I'm 1801 01:12:14,149 --> 01:12:12,060 like making notes on every page 1802 01:12:17,810 --> 01:12:14,159 um but like he he proposes this idea 1803 01:12:25,130 --> 01:12:19,090 um 1804 01:12:28,010 --> 01:12:25,140 basically as the presence and 1805 01:12:30,290 --> 01:12:28,020 um daily involvement with structures 1806 01:12:31,970 --> 01:12:30,300 exist in Modern Life like as we 1807 01:12:34,850 --> 01:12:31,980 increasingly have like well-defined 1808 01:12:37,850 --> 01:12:34,860 systems that run our lives everything 1809 01:12:39,709 --> 01:12:37,860 from like traffic to 1810 01:12:41,450 --> 01:12:39,719 um how we do our work to like the 1811 01:12:43,970 --> 01:12:41,460 predictability of our home environments 1812 01:12:48,350 --> 01:12:43,980 like this kind of like these structures 1813 01:12:50,570 --> 01:12:48,360 and systems kind of crowd out the 1814 01:12:54,709 --> 01:12:50,580 opportunity to have like these liminal 1815 01:12:56,750 --> 01:12:54,719 or strange experiences and he sees the 1816 01:12:58,910 --> 01:12:56,760 liminal or strange experiences and he 1817 01:13:01,070 --> 01:12:58,920 sort of treats like the range of 1818 01:13:04,250 --> 01:13:01,080 paranormal or Supernatural things all 1819 01:13:06,890 --> 01:13:04,260 sort of as a collective artifact of like 1820 01:13:09,830 --> 01:13:06,900 one phenomena right UFOs telekinesis 1821 01:13:12,229 --> 01:13:09,840 Clairvoyance whatever 1822 01:13:14,090 --> 01:13:12,239 um and basically that like as we 1823 01:13:16,490 --> 01:13:14,100 converge towards this increasingly 1824 01:13:20,030 --> 01:13:16,500 structured experience and culture and 1825 01:13:23,510 --> 01:13:20,040 society that like again it marginalizes 1826 01:13:25,370 --> 01:13:23,520 and removes these experiences uh from 1827 01:13:28,729 --> 01:13:25,380 daily life like they become much more 1828 01:13:30,530 --> 01:13:28,739 marginal but that as we see like as we 1829 01:13:33,229 --> 01:13:30,540 see the breakdown of these structures 1830 01:13:35,030 --> 01:13:33,239 even in modern society the uh one of the 1831 01:13:37,010 --> 01:13:35,040 examples he draws upon is the collapse 1832 01:13:38,810 --> 01:13:37,020 of the Soviet Union and the subsequent 1833 01:13:40,669 --> 01:13:38,820 rise and popular interests in the 1834 01:13:43,250 --> 01:13:40,679 Paranormal and psychics and mediumship 1835 01:13:45,830 --> 01:13:43,260 and things like that like basically as 1836 01:13:48,950 --> 01:13:45,840 these structures Decay it increasingly 1837 01:13:51,950 --> 01:13:48,960 opens space for experiences and 1838 01:13:54,590 --> 01:13:51,960 perceptions and beliefs that 1839 01:13:57,350 --> 01:13:54,600 um are uh I don't want to say logically 1840 01:13:59,149 --> 01:13:57,360 inconsistent but do not cohere to the 1841 01:14:01,550 --> 01:13:59,159 structures of daily life 1842 01:14:03,770 --> 01:14:01,560 I see yeah yeah that's an interesting 1843 01:14:05,510 --> 01:14:03,780 fact well that that's a really 1844 01:14:08,630 --> 01:14:05,520 interesting with respect to the Soviet 1845 01:14:11,590 --> 01:14:08,640 Union especially because philosophically 1846 01:14:15,050 --> 01:14:11,600 they were uh you know all purely 1847 01:14:18,649 --> 01:14:15,060 atheistic uh from uh their enculturation 1848 01:14:20,689 --> 01:14:18,659 uh hardcore materialists uh you know 1849 01:14:24,050 --> 01:14:20,699 physicalists and 1850 01:14:26,390 --> 01:14:24,060 I understand that that's right sorry go 1851 01:14:28,310 --> 01:14:26,400 on I was gonna say I'm I'm messaging you 1852 01:14:31,189 --> 01:14:28,320 guys in the private chat an article by 1853 01:14:33,890 --> 01:14:31,199 Hannah gay called psychic healing at the 1854 01:14:37,189 --> 01:14:33,900 end of History which is all about the 1855 01:14:39,669 --> 01:14:37,199 post-soviet obsession with like psychics 1856 01:14:41,750 --> 01:14:39,679 on television after the club 1857 01:14:43,490 --> 01:14:41,760 post it there in case you want to post 1858 01:14:45,709 --> 01:14:43,500 it in the comments anyway sorry Kimball 1859 01:14:48,590 --> 01:14:45,719 no yeah that's a vowel point and and 1860 01:14:50,330 --> 01:14:48,600 there was a dramatic interest or extreme 1861 01:14:52,430 --> 01:14:50,340 interest in the Soviet Union related to 1862 01:14:54,110 --> 01:14:52,440 all of these kinds of phenomena and they 1863 01:14:56,330 --> 01:14:54,120 it I mean it's quite interesting because 1864 01:15:00,110 --> 01:14:56,340 obviously the Soviet Union was a 1865 01:15:02,030 --> 01:15:00,120 criminal evil empire but uh they were 1866 01:15:04,610 --> 01:15:02,040 actually studying these things uh taking 1867 01:15:05,810 --> 01:15:04,620 them more seriously in some ways and uh 1868 01:15:08,270 --> 01:15:05,820 according to our own Declassified 1869 01:15:10,850 --> 01:15:08,280 documents from our governments we 1870 01:15:11,990 --> 01:15:10,860 see that our intelligence agencies were 1871 01:15:13,850 --> 01:15:12,000 worried about playing catch up on some 1872 01:15:15,770 --> 01:15:13,860 of these things so for example a psychic 1873 01:15:17,270 --> 01:15:15,780 phenomena the Soviets were investigating 1874 01:15:19,310 --> 01:15:17,280 it before the CIA the CIA was trying to 1875 01:15:20,630 --> 01:15:19,320 catch up to the Soviets uh because they 1876 01:15:22,070 --> 01:15:20,640 were worried that the Soviets were onto 1877 01:15:23,689 --> 01:15:22,080 something the Soviets were studying it 1878 01:15:25,130 --> 01:15:23,699 from a physicalist materialist 1879 01:15:26,990 --> 01:15:25,140 perspective they were studying it from 1880 01:15:29,630 --> 01:15:27,000 the perspective of like electromagnetism 1881 01:15:32,270 --> 01:15:29,640 and things like that they were trying to 1882 01:15:34,729 --> 01:15:32,280 determine them from a scientific 1883 01:15:37,729 --> 01:15:34,739 perspective if they were real or not and 1884 01:15:40,070 --> 01:15:37,739 you know that also extends into UFOs 1885 01:15:43,010 --> 01:15:40,080 there are massive databases of 1886 01:15:45,590 --> 01:15:43,020 universities in the Soviet former Soviet 1887 01:15:47,390 --> 01:15:45,600 Union uh about all lightning I like it's 1888 01:15:49,370 --> 01:15:47,400 like one of them contains like 10 000 1889 01:15:52,130 --> 01:15:49,380 reports and when you go through those 1890 01:15:55,189 --> 01:15:52,140 reports they are literally identical to 1891 01:15:56,990 --> 01:15:55,199 UFO reports except for the 1892 01:15:58,910 --> 01:15:57,000 interpretation 1893 01:16:02,830 --> 01:15:58,920 in the Soviet Union you have physics 1894 01:16:05,209 --> 01:16:02,840 papers describing uh fluid dynamics 1895 01:16:08,149 --> 01:16:05,219 doing the math showing after an 1896 01:16:10,610 --> 01:16:08,159 observation how the object is exactly 1897 01:16:12,290 --> 01:16:10,620 behaving how you can cause an object to 1898 01:16:15,830 --> 01:16:12,300 behave under the influence of magnetic 1899 01:16:18,410 --> 01:16:15,840 forces and so you know there is this 1900 01:16:21,410 --> 01:16:18,420 natural physical approach that was 1901 01:16:22,970 --> 01:16:21,420 occurring there and then the Western 1902 01:16:24,770 --> 01:16:22,980 sounds a little bit I mean it is 1903 01:16:26,209 --> 01:16:24,780 conspiratorial but the Declassified 1904 01:16:28,130 --> 01:16:26,219 documents that we have especially the 1905 01:16:30,530 --> 01:16:28,140 one from the United Kingdom from 2000 1906 01:16:32,930 --> 01:16:30,540 where they're getting into it they talk 1907 01:16:34,970 --> 01:16:32,940 specifically we're quite concerned that 1908 01:16:36,649 --> 01:16:34,980 the Soviet Union is ahead of us on the 1909 01:16:38,510 --> 01:16:36,659 study of ball lightning we are certain 1910 01:16:40,550 --> 01:16:38,520 that UFOs exist this is the United 1911 01:16:42,410 --> 01:16:40,560 Kingdom's Military Intelligence where 1912 01:16:44,209 --> 01:16:42,420 certain UFOs exist we are almost certain 1913 01:16:47,090 --> 01:16:44,219 they are natural atmospheric phenomena 1914 01:16:48,470 --> 01:16:47,100 we need to study these things because we 1915 01:16:49,850 --> 01:16:48,480 are worried that due to stigma 1916 01:16:51,229 --> 01:16:49,860 associated with UFOs we have not been 1917 01:16:53,149 --> 01:16:51,239 looking at them closely enough and we 1918 01:16:54,410 --> 01:16:53,159 think there's a variety of technological 1919 01:16:56,450 --> 01:16:54,420 advancements that can be achieved by 1920 01:16:57,649 --> 01:16:56,460 understanding while lightning better so 1921 01:16:59,209 --> 01:16:57,659 that you know this is their document 1922 01:17:00,470 --> 01:16:59,219 that wrote it out and they could be 1923 01:17:03,470 --> 01:17:00,480 wrong about that that's just an 1924 01:17:06,110 --> 01:17:03,480 interpretation as well but you see that 1925 01:17:08,390 --> 01:17:06,120 there was this hardcore atheist 1926 01:17:10,550 --> 01:17:08,400 materialist philosophy in the Soviet 1927 01:17:13,130 --> 01:17:10,560 Union that led to them actually trying 1928 01:17:15,830 --> 01:17:13,140 to naturalize these phenomena and you 1929 01:17:17,330 --> 01:17:15,840 see in the historical uh documentary 1930 01:17:19,310 --> 01:17:17,340 record that we have in our national 1931 01:17:20,810 --> 01:17:19,320 archives that our intelligence agencies 1932 01:17:23,810 --> 01:17:20,820 were consistently trying to play 1933 01:17:25,430 --> 01:17:23,820 catch-up it's interesting that they 1934 01:17:27,830 --> 01:17:25,440 still kind of considered that there 1935 01:17:30,410 --> 01:17:27,840 would be a mysterious explanation for 1936 01:17:32,870 --> 01:17:30,420 like a representative number of these 1937 01:17:36,950 --> 01:17:32,880 cases rather than just people 1938 01:17:39,830 --> 01:17:36,960 uh misidentifying things yes the common 1939 01:17:41,270 --> 01:17:39,840 factor but yeah I just want to validate 1940 01:17:43,490 --> 01:17:41,280 what you're saying Nick like it's 1941 01:17:45,470 --> 01:17:43,500 extremely important to remember uh Steve 1942 01:17:47,870 --> 01:17:45,480 long said it in the chat earlier that 1943 01:17:50,510 --> 01:17:47,880 most of the time when there's something 1944 01:17:52,910 --> 01:17:50,520 extraordinary being claimed to exist it 1945 01:17:55,370 --> 01:17:52,920 almost always is not ultimately found to 1946 01:17:58,490 --> 01:17:55,380 be real and so we can't assume that you 1947 01:18:00,590 --> 01:17:58,500 know extraordinary uh claims result in 1948 01:18:03,189 --> 01:18:00,600 extraordinary realities you know 1949 01:18:05,510 --> 01:18:03,199 whatever and messing up the quote 1950 01:18:07,810 --> 01:18:05,520 that with with 1951 01:18:11,510 --> 01:18:07,820 you know convincing evidence from with 1952 01:18:12,890 --> 01:18:11,520 yes evidence exactly you know what I 1953 01:18:15,110 --> 01:18:12,900 mean I'm not against 1954 01:18:17,450 --> 01:18:15,120 these extraordinary claims but it's 1955 01:18:18,649 --> 01:18:17,460 going to take a bit for me to believe it 1956 01:18:21,610 --> 01:18:18,659 other than 1957 01:18:24,709 --> 01:18:21,620 you know kind of an intuitional belief 1958 01:18:26,930 --> 01:18:24,719 based on just the culture I was raised 1959 01:18:29,149 --> 01:18:26,940 in well and I said this last week but uh 1960 01:18:31,610 --> 01:18:29,159 Occam's razor that was created by 1961 01:18:34,490 --> 01:18:31,620 William avakum a friar in the 14th 1962 01:18:36,890 --> 01:18:34,500 century who created it to argue that 1963 01:18:38,870 --> 01:18:36,900 Miracles probably exist it's the 1964 01:18:41,750 --> 01:18:38,880 simplest explanation for the fact that 1965 01:18:43,669 --> 01:18:41,760 you're having common experiences being 1966 01:18:45,709 --> 01:18:43,679 reported across time and place of 1967 01:18:47,030 --> 01:18:45,719 similar uh things and so it's like 1968 01:18:48,649 --> 01:18:47,040 because there's so many people reporting 1969 01:18:51,050 --> 01:18:48,659 something similar 1970 01:18:52,970 --> 01:18:51,060 uh you know discreetly then it's 1971 01:18:55,370 --> 01:18:52,980 reasonable to infer that it's actually 1972 01:18:56,870 --> 01:18:55,380 real and that that's what Occam's razor 1973 01:18:59,750 --> 01:18:56,880 originally was it's the Miracles are 1974 01:19:01,669 --> 01:18:59,760 real uh we know now that's not verified 1975 01:19:03,169 --> 01:19:01,679 that's not supported by the evidence in 1976 01:19:05,090 --> 01:19:03,179 a way you can do the Virgin Mary as well 1977 01:19:08,270 --> 01:19:05,100 you know hundreds upon hundreds of uh 1978 01:19:11,030 --> 01:19:08,280 very intensely investigated uh reports 1979 01:19:12,590 --> 01:19:11,040 by the Catholic church over uh centuries 1980 01:19:14,090 --> 01:19:12,600 and uh you know we don't have evidence 1981 01:19:16,010 --> 01:19:14,100 for that either so you're you're 1982 01:19:18,350 --> 01:19:16,020 absolutely a right neck like there 1983 01:19:20,330 --> 01:19:18,360 there's a good prospect that there isn't 1984 01:19:22,250 --> 01:19:20,340 an actual real thing at the heart of 1985 01:19:25,189 --> 01:19:22,260 many of these reports or any of them it 1986 01:19:29,110 --> 01:19:25,199 brings me back to why we have a ufology 1987 01:19:31,570 --> 01:19:29,120 and why we don't have a lost psychology 1988 01:19:34,130 --> 01:19:31,580 and I think 1989 01:19:36,709 --> 01:19:34,140 and the sports model is expensiveness 1990 01:19:38,570 --> 01:19:36,719 well because we can eventually find the 1991 01:19:40,910 --> 01:19:38,580 socks and then hold them again 1992 01:19:43,189 --> 01:19:40,920 you know we can't catch a UFO it's gone 1993 01:19:46,189 --> 01:19:43,199 it's already in the past we just have 1994 01:19:49,250 --> 01:19:46,199 our memory of it and that's what we want 1995 01:19:51,590 --> 01:19:49,260 to give to science and politicians to 1996 01:19:55,130 --> 01:19:51,600 hold up and validate for us as 1997 01:19:58,370 --> 01:19:55,140 everybody's just stories and memories oh 1998 01:20:00,590 --> 01:19:58,380 Nick I'm becoming a cynical sorry this 1999 01:20:01,790 --> 01:20:00,600 doesn't seem I mean I guess there's a 2000 01:20:03,350 --> 01:20:01,800 flavor of this that could be very 2001 01:20:06,709 --> 01:20:03,360 cynical but none of those pings is 2002 01:20:08,390 --> 01:20:06,719 deeply cynical to me I mean why because 2003 01:20:10,130 --> 01:20:08,400 well no 2004 01:20:12,290 --> 01:20:10,140 now 2005 01:20:14,090 --> 01:20:12,300 um but because I think when particularly 2006 01:20:20,149 --> 01:20:14,100 when people 2007 01:20:22,370 --> 01:20:20,159 break apart their ontologies and 2008 01:20:24,350 --> 01:20:22,380 especially when they're isolated in this 2009 01:20:27,350 --> 01:20:24,360 experience which is very common because 2010 01:20:29,750 --> 01:20:27,360 we have such poor cultural narratives 2011 01:20:33,350 --> 01:20:29,760 for interpreting and metabolizing these 2012 01:20:36,350 --> 01:20:33,360 kinds of things whether uh UFOs or 2013 01:20:38,330 --> 01:20:36,360 Bigfoot or emergence or whatever these 2014 01:20:40,490 --> 01:20:38,340 are deeply isolating and traumatizing 2015 01:20:42,410 --> 01:20:40,500 events for many many people 2016 01:20:45,290 --> 01:20:42,420 um and the idea that they can be seen 2017 01:20:47,330 --> 01:20:45,300 and recognized and validated uh by 2018 01:20:48,950 --> 01:20:47,340 external powers of authority right 2019 01:20:50,990 --> 01:20:48,960 whether it's friends or family or 2020 01:20:52,790 --> 01:20:51,000 doctors or politicians or whatever like 2021 01:20:55,189 --> 01:20:52,800 this is this is 2022 01:20:57,530 --> 01:20:55,199 um in many respects deeply important for 2023 01:20:59,090 --> 01:20:57,540 sort of the individual like I don't want 2024 01:21:00,590 --> 01:20:59,100 to say the healing process but like how 2025 01:21:02,990 --> 01:21:00,600 we metabolize and integrate these 2026 01:21:05,630 --> 01:21:03,000 experiences like being heard and being 2027 01:21:07,550 --> 01:21:05,640 witnessed is deeply powerful for people 2028 01:21:11,209 --> 01:21:07,560 especially when they feel very isolated 2029 01:21:16,189 --> 01:21:11,219 after something that is extraordinary 2030 01:21:21,130 --> 01:21:17,450 we got like 2031 01:21:22,669 --> 01:21:21,140 nine minutes for a final thought 2032 01:21:25,010 --> 01:21:22,679 well 2033 01:21:27,709 --> 01:21:25,020 um I mean what Lee was just saying I can 2034 01:21:29,750 --> 01:21:27,719 relate to in some ways I've talked here 2035 01:21:32,390 --> 01:21:29,760 and there about it but um I sometimes 2036 01:21:34,850 --> 01:21:32,400 have hypnopic uh sleep hallucinations 2037 01:21:37,990 --> 01:21:34,860 it's when you wake up and for five to 2038 01:21:40,310 --> 01:21:38,000 ten seconds the sleeping uh 2039 01:21:42,229 --> 01:21:40,320 hallucinatory state does not completely 2040 01:21:44,270 --> 01:21:42,239 shut off it's just a slight uh 2041 01:21:46,610 --> 01:21:44,280 disconnect they're usually uh associated 2042 01:21:49,310 --> 01:21:46,620 with a stressful experience during the 2043 01:21:52,070 --> 01:21:49,320 day or whatever but uh you know my first 2044 01:21:53,630 --> 01:21:52,080 experience where I acknowledge that or I 2045 01:21:55,669 --> 01:21:53,640 recognize that something weird was 2046 01:21:58,370 --> 01:21:55,679 happening I was like 13 14 I woke up and 2047 01:22:00,530 --> 01:21:58,380 I saw I mean it's such a classic one but 2048 01:22:02,870 --> 01:22:00,540 like what looked like a like a metallic 2049 01:22:04,910 --> 01:22:02,880 sphere thing floating in my bedroom when 2050 01:22:06,530 --> 01:22:04,920 I woke up I thought it was like a robot 2051 01:22:07,729 --> 01:22:06,540 or something I was like I was like 2052 01:22:09,830 --> 01:22:07,739 really into Star Wars I was like what 2053 01:22:12,550 --> 01:22:09,840 the heck that looks like those torture 2054 01:22:14,990 --> 01:22:12,560 Droid from Star Wars what oh yeah yeah 2055 01:22:17,209 --> 01:22:15,000 right yes yes it looked kind of like 2056 01:22:20,149 --> 01:22:17,219 that without the projections or anything 2057 01:22:23,030 --> 01:22:20,159 but um you know the internet existed I 2058 01:22:24,830 --> 01:22:23,040 was I'm young enough that I got up and I 2059 01:22:28,189 --> 01:22:24,840 straight up I went straight to Google 2060 01:22:30,709 --> 01:22:28,199 and just typed in what I experienced and 2061 01:22:33,050 --> 01:22:30,719 then I immediately found a sufficient 2062 01:22:34,070 --> 01:22:33,060 explanation but I also look back on it 2063 01:22:36,830 --> 01:22:34,080 and I think 2064 01:22:38,510 --> 01:22:36,840 if I did not have access to that if I 2065 01:22:40,910 --> 01:22:38,520 couldn't like figure out exactly 2066 01:22:43,070 --> 01:22:40,920 immediately what I had seen I would I 2067 01:22:44,750 --> 01:22:43,080 mean a couple hundred years prior I 2068 01:22:47,330 --> 01:22:44,760 would be convinced that I was being like 2069 01:22:49,669 --> 01:22:47,340 visited by demons or something nearly 2070 01:22:52,910 --> 01:22:49,679 every culture around the world has its 2071 01:22:54,890 --> 01:22:52,920 own like slightly unique specific uh 2072 01:22:59,149 --> 01:22:54,900 Superstition based around sleep 2073 01:23:01,310 --> 01:22:59,159 paralysis old hags karashinari in Japan 2074 01:23:04,490 --> 01:23:01,320 I think that's how you say it like every 2075 01:23:07,070 --> 01:23:04,500 culture has got some kind of entity that 2076 01:23:10,130 --> 01:23:07,080 comes in kind of like explains the 2077 01:23:11,689 --> 01:23:10,140 sensations of a hypnopic or hypnagogic 2078 01:23:14,270 --> 01:23:11,699 uh hallucination along with the 2079 01:23:15,830 --> 01:23:14,280 paralysis and the kind of pushing on the 2080 01:23:19,490 --> 01:23:15,840 chest the Japanese called the choking 2081 01:23:21,890 --> 01:23:19,500 ghost you know uh the term Haggard comes 2082 01:23:23,689 --> 01:23:21,900 from being visited by the old hag which 2083 01:23:25,970 --> 01:23:23,699 was an old superstition about sleep 2084 01:23:28,490 --> 01:23:25,980 paralysis I mean it left you tired in 2085 01:23:31,430 --> 01:23:28,500 the morning so you were Haggard but 2086 01:23:33,410 --> 01:23:31,440 right but like think about that that's a 2087 01:23:35,330 --> 01:23:33,420 natural it's a natural thing that people 2088 01:23:37,430 --> 01:23:35,340 didn't explain and or couldn't explain 2089 01:23:39,110 --> 01:23:37,440 at the time and they've created a 2090 01:23:40,430 --> 01:23:39,120 folklore around it and it just became 2091 01:23:42,290 --> 01:23:40,440 kind of a 2092 01:23:44,750 --> 01:23:42,300 subconsciously known by everybody 2093 01:23:47,270 --> 01:23:44,760 culturally yeah well and it's and it's 2094 01:23:49,130 --> 01:23:47,280 it's uh an interpretive framework that 2095 01:23:51,290 --> 01:23:49,140 allows them to metabolize and integrate 2096 01:23:53,270 --> 01:23:51,300 the experience right it gives them a 2097 01:23:55,790 --> 01:23:53,280 language to talk about it it gives them 2098 01:23:58,070 --> 01:23:55,800 a framework to understand what happened 2099 01:24:00,110 --> 01:23:58,080 even if it's not pleasant right we don't 2100 01:24:01,850 --> 01:24:00,120 even have this [\h__\h] anymore right the 2101 01:24:04,250 --> 01:24:01,860 only places you find this kind of stuff 2102 01:24:06,470 --> 01:24:04,260 is like if you're sitting like if you're 2103 01:24:08,750 --> 01:24:06,480 like deep into the like weird Buddhist 2104 01:24:10,430 --> 01:24:08,760 [\h__\h] that I'm into like you're gonna 2105 01:24:12,290 --> 01:24:10,440 have language and interpretive 2106 01:24:14,689 --> 01:24:12,300 Frameworks for like when you experience 2107 01:24:17,330 --> 01:24:14,699 basically how psychedelic experiences in 2108 01:24:19,310 --> 01:24:17,340 meditation or like but like if I went 2109 01:24:21,770 --> 01:24:19,320 and talked to like the standard issue 2110 01:24:24,430 --> 01:24:21,780 doctor or therapist about this they'd be 2111 01:24:26,990 --> 01:24:24,440 totally pathologize it right like like 2112 01:24:27,709 --> 01:24:27,000 at least having these 2113 01:24:29,330 --> 01:24:27,719 um 2114 01:24:31,130 --> 01:24:29,340 even if it's something that we 2115 01:24:34,010 --> 01:24:31,140 understand from a scientific perspective 2116 01:24:36,590 --> 01:24:34,020 now like having these cultural 2117 01:24:38,990 --> 01:24:36,600 Frameworks to integrate these 2118 01:24:41,330 --> 01:24:39,000 experiences historically are deeply 2119 01:24:42,890 --> 01:24:41,340 powerful and again I think a major 2120 01:24:44,930 --> 01:24:42,900 reason is because it upends that sense 2121 01:24:47,330 --> 01:24:44,940 of isolation or freakishness that kind 2122 01:24:50,390 --> 01:24:47,340 of accompany you know these like these 2123 01:24:53,450 --> 01:24:52,310 okay do you guys are you guys familiar 2124 01:24:57,530 --> 01:24:53,460 at all with 2125 01:24:59,750 --> 01:24:57,540 um Mandela effects oh yeah this this 2126 01:25:02,030 --> 01:24:59,760 kind of meme that's uh oh yeah there's a 2127 01:25:03,229 --> 01:25:02,040 lot of news and stuff bizarre things 2128 01:25:04,729 --> 01:25:03,239 depending on take effect but this is 2129 01:25:07,010 --> 01:25:04,739 kind of like this is almost a new one 2130 01:25:09,830 --> 01:25:07,020 right this is almost a new kind of it's 2131 01:25:10,729 --> 01:25:09,840 a new meme it's coming out over like um 2132 01:25:12,530 --> 01:25:10,739 kind of 2133 01:25:15,590 --> 01:25:12,540 Collective and cultural memories of 2134 01:25:17,689 --> 01:25:15,600 thing like saying um Luke I am your 2135 01:25:19,189 --> 01:25:17,699 father Vader's line he wouldn't say that 2136 01:25:21,290 --> 01:25:19,199 in the line he says no I'm your father 2137 01:25:24,410 --> 01:25:21,300 because it's part of a sentence but if 2138 01:25:26,390 --> 01:25:24,420 you isolate that to kind of convey that 2139 01:25:28,070 --> 01:25:26,400 same scene with without the dialogue on 2140 01:25:30,890 --> 01:25:28,080 either end you say Luke 2141 01:25:34,370 --> 01:25:30,900 yeah that's how the scene is conveyed in 2142 01:25:37,310 --> 01:25:34,380 every other place except the movie so so 2143 01:25:39,590 --> 01:25:37,320 now we have a Superstition that once 2144 01:25:41,689 --> 01:25:39,600 again uh kind of revolves around 2145 01:25:43,370 --> 01:25:41,699 alternate Dimensions or alternate places 2146 01:25:46,550 --> 01:25:43,380 almost 2147 01:25:48,649 --> 01:25:46,560 uh The Ether again once again because 2148 01:25:49,910 --> 01:25:48,659 we're switching between these things I 2149 01:25:50,930 --> 01:25:49,920 think that 2150 01:25:53,689 --> 01:25:50,940 um 2151 01:25:57,050 --> 01:25:53,699 you know pop science magazines and blogs 2152 01:25:58,790 --> 01:25:57,060 uh kind of play into that to we 2153 01:26:00,890 --> 01:25:58,800 we've talked about that a little bit too 2154 01:26:03,530 --> 01:26:00,900 where like you'll get these like 2155 01:26:05,629 --> 01:26:03,540 highly theoretical physical idea is 2156 01:26:07,610 --> 01:26:05,639 getting getting tossed around on blogs 2157 01:26:09,590 --> 01:26:07,620 saying like scientists baffled by 2158 01:26:11,870 --> 01:26:09,600 something that exceeds the the 2159 01:26:13,550 --> 01:26:11,880 brightness uh that we previously oh yeah 2160 01:26:15,410 --> 01:26:13,560 yeah 2161 01:26:16,850 --> 01:26:15,420 all these like kind of pop that sound 2162 01:26:18,050 --> 01:26:16,860 really interesting and they're kind of 2163 01:26:19,550 --> 01:26:18,060 sci-fi and they're weird and they're 2164 01:26:21,590 --> 01:26:19,560 really out there they're not applicable 2165 01:26:23,450 --> 01:26:21,600 but you're serving this to a population 2166 01:26:27,110 --> 01:26:23,460 that doesn't have 2167 01:26:28,990 --> 01:26:27,120 you know a basic science understanding a 2168 01:26:31,129 --> 01:26:29,000 science education do you even like 2169 01:26:34,010 --> 01:26:31,139 interpret this kind of stuff so I think 2170 01:26:36,530 --> 01:26:34,020 that stuff just kind of propagates to 2171 01:26:38,689 --> 01:26:36,540 you know what I mean 2172 01:26:40,370 --> 01:26:38,699 oh go ahead that just kind of feeds into 2173 01:26:43,189 --> 01:26:40,380 the idea and it gives all it gives it 2174 01:26:45,050 --> 01:26:43,199 more places for these um superstitions 2175 01:26:46,970 --> 01:26:45,060 to hide because like we always talked 2176 01:26:49,189 --> 01:26:46,980 about aliens Came From Mars then from 2177 01:26:51,050 --> 01:26:49,199 Venus then the dark side of the moon but 2178 01:26:52,390 --> 01:26:51,060 we started you know sending probes there 2179 01:26:55,070 --> 01:26:52,400 and Landing 2180 01:26:57,770 --> 01:26:55,080 uh Georgia damski said he saw the dark 2181 01:26:59,510 --> 01:26:57,780 the the back side of the moon before we 2182 01:27:01,970 --> 01:26:59,520 sent any Imaging back there and said 2183 01:27:04,910 --> 01:27:01,980 that there were cities but then you know 2184 01:27:06,649 --> 01:27:04,920 our kind of cultural understanding grew 2185 01:27:08,810 --> 01:27:06,659 so they have to hide further and further 2186 01:27:11,090 --> 01:27:08,820 and I think these pop science articles 2187 01:27:12,890 --> 01:27:11,100 and stuff kind of give people because 2188 01:27:14,870 --> 01:27:12,900 they talk about multiverses and things 2189 01:27:16,790 --> 01:27:14,880 like that highly highly hypothetical 2190 01:27:18,709 --> 01:27:16,800 like I said non-phalsifiable things 2191 01:27:21,050 --> 01:27:18,719 really just kind of 2192 01:27:22,910 --> 01:27:21,060 science but then people consume that and 2193 01:27:24,470 --> 01:27:22,920 it becomes part of the lore the lore is 2194 01:27:26,270 --> 01:27:24,480 always changing 2195 01:27:27,950 --> 01:27:26,280 but I mean and that's why we see 2196 01:27:29,870 --> 01:27:27,960 constant different features with UFOs 2197 01:27:32,149 --> 01:27:29,880 like I said now they're um the Space 2198 01:27:34,250 --> 01:27:32,159 Ghost version of UFOs that can haunt 2199 01:27:36,709 --> 01:27:34,260 people it's just a new feature they're 2200 01:27:39,110 --> 01:27:36,719 not really abducting people anymore 2201 01:27:41,330 --> 01:27:39,120 Campbell says they are but don't worry 2202 01:27:44,330 --> 01:27:41,340 yeah Campbell's got some weird beliefs 2203 01:27:46,490 --> 01:27:44,340 about this stuff yeah yeah no hey it's 2204 01:27:49,750 --> 01:27:46,500 coming directly from the UK Ministry of 2205 01:27:52,790 --> 01:27:49,760 defense or I mean uh not me 2206 01:27:55,010 --> 01:27:52,800 uh let me just uh just as a final little 2207 01:27:56,030 --> 01:27:55,020 note about disclosure because um we 2208 01:27:58,129 --> 01:27:56,040 haven't really touched on it too much 2209 01:28:00,169 --> 01:27:58,139 but uh blue like Blue Book led into the 2210 01:28:01,669 --> 01:28:00,179 Condon report which was uh the United 2211 01:28:03,890 --> 01:28:01,679 States Air Force finally was like okay 2212 01:28:04,910 --> 01:28:03,900 we need to stop like bringing in these 2213 01:28:07,129 --> 01:28:04,920 reports we're getting any information 2214 01:28:10,070 --> 01:28:07,139 let's get uh what panel of University 2215 01:28:12,890 --> 01:28:10,080 experts on that they you know right now 2216 01:28:15,169 --> 01:28:12,900 we have the UAP study group in NASA 2217 01:28:18,350 --> 01:28:15,179 they're doing essentially something 2218 01:28:21,229 --> 01:28:18,360 similar at least the preliminary stages 2219 01:28:23,629 --> 01:28:21,239 um so maybe uh I'd love to just bring 2220 01:28:25,669 --> 01:28:23,639 this up it's uh just a little segment 2221 01:28:27,410 --> 01:28:25,679 from my website but the University of 2222 01:28:29,810 --> 01:28:27,420 Colorado and U.S Air Force scientific 2223 01:28:31,550 --> 01:28:29,820 study of unidentified flying objects aka 2224 01:28:35,030 --> 01:28:31,560 the common report 2225 01:28:37,270 --> 01:28:35,040 so the entire chapter seven so this is 2226 01:28:39,770 --> 01:28:37,280 what okay my opinion if we're gonna get 2227 01:28:41,750 --> 01:28:39,780 disclosure this is sort of like they're 2228 01:28:43,250 --> 01:28:41,760 gonna maybe do a repeat of what they've 2229 01:28:45,470 --> 01:28:43,260 already done because it worked it sort 2230 01:28:47,510 --> 01:28:45,480 of made it go away and stuff um so let's 2231 01:28:49,910 --> 01:28:47,520 see a disclosure tonight let's look at 2232 01:28:52,189 --> 01:28:49,920 the Colorado uh Condon report chapter 2233 01:28:54,169 --> 01:28:52,199 seven atmospheric electricity and plasma 2234 01:28:56,930 --> 01:28:54,179 interpretations of UFOs 2235 01:29:00,110 --> 01:28:56,940 so I got a whole chapter here and then 2236 01:29:01,910 --> 01:29:00,120 they just go into the descriptions of 2237 01:29:03,890 --> 01:29:01,920 ball lightning like they conclude the 2238 01:29:06,950 --> 01:29:03,900 objects with these features 2239 01:29:08,629 --> 01:29:06,960 I think they're politics they uh even go 2240 01:29:09,950 --> 01:29:08,639 into how they think electric Fields 2241 01:29:11,390 --> 01:29:09,960 might be related and might be having 2242 01:29:13,790 --> 01:29:11,400 physiological effects some people that's 2243 01:29:17,030 --> 01:29:13,800 not verified even now but in even then 2244 01:29:18,709 --> 01:29:17,040 they were saying that uh yada yada uh 2245 01:29:21,229 --> 01:29:18,719 collisions with aircraft so you got this 2246 01:29:23,149 --> 01:29:21,239 so then we got the National Academy of 2247 01:29:25,790 --> 01:29:23,159 Sciences review of the University of 2248 01:29:27,290 --> 01:29:25,800 Colorado report on unidentified flying 2249 01:29:28,850 --> 01:29:27,300 objects so the National Academy of 2250 01:29:31,669 --> 01:29:28,860 Sciences did a review of the report to 2251 01:29:36,229 --> 01:29:31,679 give an independent interpretation of 2252 01:29:39,050 --> 01:29:36,239 what happened and their conclusions were 2253 01:29:41,090 --> 01:29:39,060 there are important areas of atmospheric 2254 01:29:43,790 --> 01:29:41,100 electricity in which present knowledge 2255 01:29:45,410 --> 01:29:43,800 is quite incomplete these topics came to 2256 01:29:47,870 --> 01:29:45,420 our attention in connection with the 2257 01:29:50,030 --> 01:29:47,880 interpretation of some UFO reports 2258 01:29:51,770 --> 01:29:50,040 research efforts are being carried out 2259 01:29:54,350 --> 01:29:51,780 in these areas by the default Department 2260 01:29:56,330 --> 01:29:54,360 of Defense and the National Aeronautics 2261 01:29:59,570 --> 01:29:56,340 and Space Administration 2262 01:30:01,129 --> 01:29:59,580 and that's how they concluded it so they 2263 01:30:02,750 --> 01:30:01,139 don't say like oh UFOs are real or 2264 01:30:04,430 --> 01:30:02,760 aren't real but the report says like 2265 01:30:06,229 --> 01:30:04,440 well we don't know but you know there 2266 01:30:08,390 --> 01:30:06,239 are these objects they have every 2267 01:30:10,550 --> 01:30:08,400 quality that people are attributing to 2268 01:30:11,750 --> 01:30:10,560 these objects and you know here's the 2269 01:30:14,270 --> 01:30:11,760 independent review by the national 2270 01:30:16,189 --> 01:30:14,280 National Academy of Sciences and they're 2271 01:30:17,930 --> 01:30:16,199 saying these are the important areas and 2272 01:30:20,810 --> 01:30:17,940 they are actually already being 2273 01:30:22,729 --> 01:30:20,820 investigated by the dod in NASA so I 2274 01:30:24,649 --> 01:30:22,739 mean is that disclosure I don't know 2275 01:30:26,510 --> 01:30:24,659 it's kind of disclosure the kind of 2276 01:30:27,229 --> 01:30:26,520 disclosure that we're probably headed 2277 01:30:28,910 --> 01:30:27,239 for 2278 01:30:31,490 --> 01:30:28,920 mm-hmm 2279 01:30:33,649 --> 01:30:31,500 there is no objective disclosure it's 2280 01:30:35,030 --> 01:30:33,659 all subjective to each person based on 2281 01:30:39,770 --> 01:30:35,040 whichever 2282 01:30:43,270 --> 01:30:39,780 flavor of UFOs they like the most yes I 2283 01:30:47,750 --> 01:30:43,280 don't know actually it's coming soon 2284 01:30:50,510 --> 01:30:47,760 it's coming
