most important stories i've ever broken 65 00:02:48,070 --> 00:02:46,560 was a story that assisted me in the work 66 00:02:50,229 --> 00:02:48,080 that i'm doing at the moment which was 67 00:02:53,509 --> 00:02:50,239 an investigation into the five eyes 68 00:02:56,390 --> 00:02:53,519 alliance the yakuza agreement 69 00:02:58,309 --> 00:02:56,400 the uk usa agreement was signed 70 00:03:01,430 --> 00:02:58,319 immediately after world war ii 71 00:03:02,470 --> 00:03:01,440 between the uk usa new zealand and 72 00:03:04,070 --> 00:03:02,480 canada 73 00:03:05,670 --> 00:03:04,080 and essentially it was a collaborative 74 00:03:09,110 --> 00:03:05,680 intelligence sharing agreement 75 00:03:11,030 --> 00:03:09,120 and uh i broke the story with a guy 76 00:03:12,710 --> 00:03:11,040 called duncan campbell a british 77 00:03:16,390 --> 00:03:12,720 investigative journalist 78 00:03:19,350 --> 00:03:16,400 about the existence of the echelon 79 00:03:20,869 --> 00:03:19,360 five eyes communication system which 80 00:03:23,270 --> 00:03:20,879 essentially monitors 81 00:03:24,470 --> 00:03:23,280 um telecommunications surveillance all 82 00:03:26,789 --> 00:03:24,480 around the world 83 00:03:29,509 --> 00:03:26,799 the fact of the existence of the system 84 00:03:32,390 --> 00:03:29,519 was confirmed for the first time by 85 00:03:33,509 --> 00:03:32,400 uh interviewing one of my stories i 86 00:03:35,110 --> 00:03:33,519 guess that's one of the things that's 87 00:03:36,229 --> 00:03:35,120 made me realize the extent of 88 00:03:39,830 --> 00:03:36,239 intelligent sharing 89 00:03:42,229 --> 00:03:39,840 between australia and the us and uk 90 00:03:44,470 --> 00:03:42,239 and it kind of focused my interest in 91 00:03:46,789 --> 00:03:44,480 the uap subject because 92 00:03:48,070 --> 00:03:46,799 i had sources in defense here in 93 00:03:50,869 --> 00:03:48,080 australia who were 94 00:03:52,949 --> 00:03:50,879 encouraging me to take a look at the uap 95 00:03:55,910 --> 00:03:52,959 phenomenon especially after the 96 00:03:57,429 --> 00:03:55,920 new york times stories uh when leslie 97 00:04:00,949 --> 00:03:57,439 kane ralph blumenthal and 98 00:04:03,670 --> 00:04:00,959 elaine cooper broke the superb december 99 00:04:04,710 --> 00:04:03,680 2017 expose that revealed the existence 100 00:04:08,149 --> 00:04:04,720 of the 101 00:04:13,589 --> 00:04:08,159 pentagon uap program 102 00:04:15,830 --> 00:04:13,599 and also the the fact of the uss limits 103 00:04:16,870 --> 00:04:15,840 tech ufo incident and then the 104 00:04:21,349 --> 00:04:16,880 subsequent gimbal 105 00:04:23,590 --> 00:04:21,359 and go fast videos and 106 00:04:25,350 --> 00:04:23,600 i basically learned a great deal about 107 00:04:29,270 --> 00:04:25,360 the uh 108 00:04:31,510 --> 00:04:29,280 the ufo phenomenon by engaging with 109 00:04:33,110 --> 00:04:31,520 researchers both here in australia bill 110 00:04:36,230 --> 00:04:33,120 chalker keith basterfield 111 00:04:37,990 --> 00:04:36,240 james reagan paul dean uh 112 00:04:39,350 --> 00:04:38,000 really lovely people top shelf people 113 00:04:41,270 --> 00:04:39,360 who've basically been doing a lot of 114 00:04:43,189 --> 00:04:41,280 work behind the scenes for many many 115 00:04:45,270 --> 00:04:43,199 years 116 00:04:46,870 --> 00:04:45,280 and they woke me up to the fact that 117 00:04:50,070 --> 00:04:46,880 this wasn't some kind of 118 00:04:52,070 --> 00:04:50,080 lunatic fringe thing for that crazy uh 119 00:04:55,030 --> 00:04:52,080 predilection 120 00:04:57,110 --> 00:04:55,040 and i also had when i was working for 121 00:04:59,590 --> 00:04:57,120 four corners which is australia's 122 00:05:02,070 --> 00:04:59,600 probably most prestigious public affairs 123 00:05:03,749 --> 00:05:02,080 tv show 124 00:05:05,909 --> 00:05:03,759 i was doing a story on the year force 125 00:05:07,749 --> 00:05:05,919 and i can't name it but there were 126 00:05:10,469 --> 00:05:07,759 two very senior officers of the 127 00:05:11,430 --> 00:05:10,479 australian air force school engaging 128 00:05:13,510 --> 00:05:11,440 with me 129 00:05:15,430 --> 00:05:13,520 for the story and we were sitting in a 130 00:05:17,110 --> 00:05:15,440 mess a bar 131 00:05:18,629 --> 00:05:17,120 one evening after doing some filming 132 00:05:20,790 --> 00:05:18,639 with them and 133 00:05:22,830 --> 00:05:20,800 they just got me engaged on the subject 134 00:05:25,909 --> 00:05:22,840 of ufos 135 00:05:26,230 --> 00:05:25,919 uaps and it was interesting because in 136 00:05:29,990 --> 00:05:26,240 the 137 00:05:32,469 --> 00:05:30,000 private forum of a an air force bar 138 00:05:34,150 --> 00:05:32,479 there was a willingness by military 139 00:05:36,950 --> 00:05:34,160 pilots to engage with me 140 00:05:38,070 --> 00:05:36,960 about what they were seeing and it 141 00:05:40,870 --> 00:05:38,080 struck me as amazing 142 00:05:42,710 --> 00:05:40,880 that that there was this cognitive 143 00:05:43,990 --> 00:05:42,720 dissonance between what the public are 144 00:05:45,909 --> 00:05:44,000 being told 145 00:05:47,510 --> 00:05:45,919 which is essentially has essentially 146 00:05:50,790 --> 00:05:47,520 been a tool very recently that 147 00:05:52,469 --> 00:05:50,800 ufos of bunker uh that 148 00:05:55,749 --> 00:05:52,479 they can largely be prosaically 149 00:05:58,710 --> 00:05:55,759 explained and more importantly that um 150 00:06:00,309 --> 00:05:58,720 they pose no national security issue uh 151 00:06:01,830 --> 00:06:00,319 in contradiction to that i was being 152 00:06:03,749 --> 00:06:01,840 told by 153 00:06:06,070 --> 00:06:03,759 senior officials in our defence and 154 00:06:08,309 --> 00:06:06,080 intelligence services 155 00:06:09,430 --> 00:06:08,319 former retired squadron leaders in our 156 00:06:13,110 --> 00:06:09,440 air force 157 00:06:15,909 --> 00:06:13,120 commercial pilots that encounters with 158 00:06:19,029 --> 00:06:15,919 uaps an identified aerial phenomena i 159 00:06:21,670 --> 00:06:19,039 prefer that too because it's less loaded 160 00:06:22,550 --> 00:06:21,680 they were very common and there was a 161 00:06:24,790 --> 00:06:22,560 big 162 00:06:26,150 --> 00:06:24,800 perceived problem with potential for 163 00:06:28,940 --> 00:06:26,160 near-misses and 164 00:06:29,990 --> 00:06:28,950 and also a clear link between 165 00:06:32,550 --> 00:06:30,000 [Music] 166 00:06:33,990 --> 00:06:32,560 these strange anomalous objects and 167 00:06:36,309 --> 00:06:34,000 sensitive military facilities 168 00:06:38,070 --> 00:06:36,319 many of which in australia are linked 169 00:06:40,309 --> 00:06:38,080 into the american 170 00:06:41,670 --> 00:06:40,319 strategic nuclear deterrence places like 171 00:06:43,749 --> 00:06:41,680 pine gap 172 00:06:45,270 --> 00:06:43,759 which is the base in the middle of 173 00:06:48,710 --> 00:06:45,280 central australia 174 00:06:51,430 --> 00:06:48,720 and also the lesser harold e 175 00:06:53,270 --> 00:06:51,440 holt naval communications station far up 176 00:06:56,150 --> 00:06:53,280 in a very remote part of 177 00:06:57,350 --> 00:06:56,160 western australia called north west cape 178 00:07:00,950 --> 00:06:57,360 near the town of 179 00:07:02,790 --> 00:07:00,960 exmath and these two bases which 180 00:07:03,990 --> 00:07:02,800 i've since discovered are very very 181 00:07:07,749 --> 00:07:04,000 closely uh 182 00:07:09,430 --> 00:07:07,759 linked into america's um icbm and 183 00:07:11,029 --> 00:07:09,440 nuclear weapons surveillance all over 184 00:07:15,350 --> 00:07:11,039 the planet um 185 00:07:17,749 --> 00:07:15,360 they and also space object monitoring 186 00:07:19,430 --> 00:07:17,759 they they've frequently seen strange 187 00:07:20,550 --> 00:07:19,440 anomalous objects going back many 188 00:07:23,670 --> 00:07:20,560 decades 189 00:07:25,110 --> 00:07:23,680 and uh i was also another thing that 190 00:07:28,629 --> 00:07:25,120 really brought me into 191 00:07:30,390 --> 00:07:28,639 this area was the history and 192 00:07:32,070 --> 00:07:30,400 i've written history books myself i'm 193 00:07:33,670 --> 00:07:32,080 quite a serious historian i've written 194 00:07:36,390 --> 00:07:33,680 books about the first world war 195 00:07:38,790 --> 00:07:36,400 and i know how to use archives i use a 196 00:07:41,270 --> 00:07:38,800 lot of archival research both here 197 00:07:42,710 --> 00:07:41,280 overseas and i was quite struck when i 198 00:07:45,830 --> 00:07:42,720 went through the australian 199 00:07:47,189 --> 00:07:45,840 national archives at the counter-factual 200 00:07:48,710 --> 00:07:47,199 history if you like the 201 00:07:50,629 --> 00:07:48,720 the history that was different to what 202 00:07:52,390 --> 00:07:50,639 were being told publicly 203 00:07:54,869 --> 00:07:52,400 which was that our air force at least 204 00:07:56,309 --> 00:07:54,879 until the 1970s which was the files that 205 00:07:58,550 --> 00:07:56,319 i could see 206 00:08:00,070 --> 00:07:58,560 had right from the 1940s monitored the 207 00:08:02,390 --> 00:08:00,080 ufo phenomenon 208 00:08:03,189 --> 00:08:02,400 and taken a grave and very serious 209 00:08:06,150 --> 00:08:03,199 interest in it 210 00:08:07,110 --> 00:08:06,160 and that indeed at one stage in the 211 00:08:09,990 --> 00:08:07,120 defence 212 00:08:10,790 --> 00:08:10,000 science area of our defense department 213 00:08:12,710 --> 00:08:10,800 there were 214 00:08:14,469 --> 00:08:12,720 there was one very senior scientist 215 00:08:16,869 --> 00:08:14,479 called harry turner 216 00:08:18,309 --> 00:08:16,879 who was heavily involved through the 217 00:08:20,309 --> 00:08:18,319 joint intelligence 218 00:08:22,309 --> 00:08:20,319 organization of the australian defense 219 00:08:24,150 --> 00:08:22,319 department in pushing for 220 00:08:25,589 --> 00:08:24,160 essentially a rapid response unit to 221 00:08:29,029 --> 00:08:25,599 respond to 222 00:08:31,670 --> 00:08:29,039 uap sightings because he'd seen objects 223 00:08:33,029 --> 00:08:31,680 during the the british nuclear testing 224 00:08:36,389 --> 00:08:33,039 at maralinga 225 00:08:38,230 --> 00:08:36,399 in south australia in the 1950s and uh 226 00:08:40,389 --> 00:08:38,240 he'd also witnessed strange objects 227 00:08:42,790 --> 00:08:40,399 hovering over the icbm 228 00:08:45,590 --> 00:08:42,800 testing that they'd done at the rocket 229 00:08:48,550 --> 00:08:45,600 range as well in the 1960s 230 00:08:50,150 --> 00:08:48,560 so with that all sort of under my belt i 231 00:08:51,590 --> 00:08:50,160 i've had a long 232 00:08:53,030 --> 00:08:51,600 interest in the phenomenon i've done a 233 00:08:54,550 --> 00:08:53,040 couple of stories about it as a 234 00:08:57,350 --> 00:08:54,560 journalist and 235 00:08:58,389 --> 00:08:57,360 it it sharpened my awareness of the 236 00:09:00,389 --> 00:08:58,399 issue and 237 00:09:03,110 --> 00:09:00,399 i guess also i'm a natural rebel because 238 00:09:03,910 --> 00:09:03,120 i was also frequently told by editors 239 00:09:06,870 --> 00:09:03,920 and 240 00:09:08,310 --> 00:09:06,880 executive producers that ufos weren't a 241 00:09:11,110 --> 00:09:08,320 story but they were all 242 00:09:11,750 --> 00:09:11,120 rubbish and they should be ridiculed and 243 00:09:16,630 --> 00:09:11,760 uh 244 00:09:19,829 --> 00:09:16,640 that taboo stigma fascinated me 245 00:09:21,910 --> 00:09:19,839 and one of the things about your book 246 00:09:23,829 --> 00:09:21,920 and i do want to get into how you 247 00:09:25,190 --> 00:09:23,839 started writing letters but 248 00:09:27,030 --> 00:09:25,200 one of the great things about your book 249 00:09:28,790 --> 00:09:27,040 for people it's great for new people and 250 00:09:29,990 --> 00:09:28,800 great for people who like me 251 00:09:31,110 --> 00:09:30,000 who've been in this for a while because 252 00:09:32,630 --> 00:09:31,120 there's a lot of stuff in your book i'm 253 00:09:34,470 --> 00:09:32,640 like i didn't know that there's a lot of 254 00:09:35,670 --> 00:09:34,480 history i don't know 255 00:09:37,190 --> 00:09:35,680 and one of the things the things that 256 00:09:38,870 --> 00:09:37,200 always comes up when you talk about this 257 00:09:40,310 --> 00:09:38,880 subject people are like 258 00:09:43,030 --> 00:09:40,320 right away i get this from people new 259 00:09:45,509 --> 00:09:43,040 they go it's probably black budget 260 00:09:48,150 --> 00:09:45,519 so can you talk about in the book you 261 00:09:51,829 --> 00:09:48,160 start with the aboriginal stories 262 00:09:55,190 --> 00:09:51,839 and blue bob i think his nickname was 263 00:09:57,269 --> 00:09:55,200 and also 1930 there was 264 00:09:59,190 --> 00:09:57,279 two oh just the aboriginal cases and 265 00:10:02,710 --> 00:09:59,200 then the two cases from 266 00:10:04,949 --> 00:10:02,720 george jones and francis chichester 267 00:10:05,990 --> 00:10:04,959 yeah well i mean one of the things i was 268 00:10:07,829 --> 00:10:06,000 fascinated by 269 00:10:09,430 --> 00:10:07,839 is whatever this phenomenon is i'd 270 00:10:11,350 --> 00:10:09,440 naturally assume like a lot of people 271 00:10:12,550 --> 00:10:11,360 that the most plausible explanation must 272 00:10:14,870 --> 00:10:12,560 be that this 273 00:10:15,750 --> 00:10:14,880 technology it's a clear technology these 274 00:10:23,030 --> 00:10:15,760 are clearly 275 00:10:26,230 --> 00:10:24,790 they're responding in an intelligent way 276 00:10:28,069 --> 00:10:26,240 and they've been around 277 00:10:30,069 --> 00:10:28,079 not just in the last few years they've 278 00:10:32,790 --> 00:10:30,079 been around for decades 279 00:10:34,230 --> 00:10:32,800 and one of the things that fascinated me 280 00:10:36,550 --> 00:10:34,240 was um 281 00:10:38,550 --> 00:10:36,560 uh i had the privilege of going way way 282 00:10:41,350 --> 00:10:38,560 up into the gulf of carpentaria 283 00:10:42,710 --> 00:10:41,360 in uh far north queensland and the 284 00:10:45,430 --> 00:10:42,720 northern territory 285 00:10:47,110 --> 00:10:45,440 real outback country red dirt country 286 00:10:47,990 --> 00:10:47,120 and we were with a mining company doing 287 00:10:50,949 --> 00:10:48,000 a story about 288 00:10:52,069 --> 00:10:50,959 aboriginal sacred sites aboriginal 289 00:10:55,110 --> 00:10:52,079 indigenous people 290 00:10:56,949 --> 00:10:55,120 of australia and um one of the people 291 00:10:59,990 --> 00:10:56,959 that was there was a lovely man who 292 00:11:02,230 -->

was um you know treated with 296 00:11:10,870 --> 00:11:08,640 reverence by the mining company because 297 00:11:13,269 --> 00:11:10,880 he had this almost mystical ability to 298 00:11:15,509 --> 00:11:13,279 navigate across the landscape just using 299 00:11:18,310 --> 00:11:15,519 his dream time stories the aboriginal 300 00:11:19,269 --> 00:11:18,320 oral history is here and the chopper 301

--> 00:11:28,640 us to go that way 308 00:11:32,630 --> 00:11:30,880 and uh that's exactly what he did and it 309 00:11:35,509 --> 00:11:32,640 was fascinating because uh 310 00:11:36,550 --> 00:11:35,519 contrary to what i expected um uh every 311 00:11:38,949 --> 00:11:36,560 time 312 00:11:41,030 --> 00:11:38,959 we bob pointed out a sensitive area or a 313 00:11:42,870 --> 00:11:41,040 sacred site that was done 314 00:11:44,790 --> 00:11:42,880 obviously wanting to be protected under 315 00:11:46,790 --> 00:11:44,800 the natural heritage laws 316 00:11:48,630 --> 00:11:46,800 i

already gone through a chartered 323 00:12:00,870 --> 00:11:59,600 all these and found them in their 324 00:12:01,430 --> 00:12:00,880 research and they were trying to find 325 00:12:03,350 --> 00:12:01,440 out 326 00:12:05,269 --> 00:12:03,360 what the sacred sites were and they were 327 00:12:06,069 --> 00:12:05,279 they were keen to demonstrate some years 328 00:12:07,509 --> 00:12:06,079 of 329 00:12:09,990 --> 00:12:07,519 sensitivity to making sure they 330 00:12:11,350 --> 00:12:10,000 protected sacred sites 331 00:12:13,750 --> 00:12:11,360 but one of the things we did was we 332 00:12:18,069 --> 00:12:13,760 landed in a billabong a beautiful 333 00:12:20,230 --> 00:12:18,079 oasis if you like uh and um 334 00:12:21,870 --> 00:12:20,240 i got the opportunity to blue bob and i

00:12:40,710 --> 00:12:40,000 and they kind of hover around campsites 345 00:12:43,190 --> 00:12:40,720 and they 346 00:12:44,710 --> 00:12:43,200 apparently intelligently engage and take 347 00:12:47,990 --> 00:12:44,720 an interest in 348 00:12:49,670 --> 00:12:48,000 people there and um i asked blue bob i 349 00:12:53,190 --> 00:12:49,680 said you know these mythical 350 00:12:53,509

laughed and laughed he 360 00:13:11,910 --> 00:13:11,120 thought it was very because he 361 00:13:13,590 --> 00:13:11,920 said 362 00:13:15,030 --> 00:13:13,600 there weren't many trucks around three 363 00:13:17,509 --> 00:13:15,040 thousand years ago and 364 00:13:24,230 --> 00:13:17,519 um and he told me that it was part of 365 00:13:27,990 --> 00:13:25,750 and more importantly the whole 366 00:13:28,470 --> 00:13:28,000 aboriginal mythology of the one january 367 00:13:31,829 --> 00:13:28,480 pool 368 00:13:33,509 --> 00:13:31,839 is way way up in the kimberley area of 369 00:13:36,550

00:13:41,920 and these amazing rock art pictures that 373 00:13:46,629 --> 00:13:43,279 are really quite astonishing 374 00:13:48,310 --> 00:13:46,639 with beings entities that 375 00:13:50,710 --> 00:13:48,320 according to aboriginal mythology came 376 00:13:54,069 --> 00:13:50,720 down from the sky and they have this 377 00:13:56,949 --> 00:13:54,079 big head with big eyes and um 378 00:13:59,110 --> 00:13:56,959 quite alarmingly similar if you like to 379 00:14:00,949 --> 00:13:59,120 the uh the rendition of greys as 380 00:14:04,389 --> 00:14:00,959 described by many 381 00:14:06,949 --> 00:14:04,399 experiences and it's very much part of 382 00:14:09,430 --> 00:14:06,959 aboriginal mythology that there is 383 00:14:10,870 --> 00:14:09,440 a kinship between human beings and the 384 00:14:12,710 --> 00:14:10,880 sky people 385 00:14:14,829 --> 00:14:12,720 and the wanjina beings are part of that 386 00:14:18,150 --> 00:14:14,839 mythology 387 00:14:20,470 --> 00:14:18,160 so then uh as part of my research i just 388 00:14:22,710 --> 00:14:20,480 started looking at the history of 389 00:14:24,790 --> 00:14:22,720 anomalous sightings and it fascinated me 390 00:14:26,550 --> 00:14:24,800 that it was a guy who went on to become 391 00:14:28,310 --> 00:14:26,560 the head of australia's air force guy 392 00:14:31,189 --> 00:14:28,320 called george jones 393

00:14:41,110 --> 00:14:37,199 part of victoria 397 00:14:42,949 --> 00:14:41,120 in southeast of australia and um 398 00:14:44,790 --> 00:14:42,959 huge numbers of residents in the files 399 00:14:48,150 --> 00:14:44,800 that i've seen were seeing 400 00:14:51,030 --> 00:14:48,160 anomalous craft objects metallic 401 00:14:52,790 --> 00:14:51,040 craft hovering over the community and 402 00:14:55,110 --> 00:14:52,800 they were lights as well that were 403 00:14:56,870 --> 00:14:55,120 moving incredibly rapid speeds 404 00:14:58,550 --> 00:14:56,880 and george jones was sent out to 405 00:15:00,710 --> 00:14:58,560 investigate as a young squadron leader 406 00:15:03,030 --> 00:15:00,720 because of the coverage at the time and 407 00:15:04,710 --> 00:15:03,040 i found the local newspaper reference to 408 00:15:06,790 --> 00:15:04,720 this investigation 409 00:15:09,030 --> 00:15:06,800 it was never it was never resolved and 410 00:15:12,870 --> 00:15:09,040 george jones later on in life 411 00:15:13,590 --> 00:15:12,880 admitted that as a pilot himself he'd 412 00:15:16,870 --> 00:15:13,600 seen 413 00:15:17,269 --> 00:15:16,880 strange objects while he was flying and 414 00:15:19,110 --> 00:15:17,279 uh 415 00:15:21,110 --> 00:15:19,120 he went on to become australia's chief 416 00:15:23,990 --> 00:15:21,120 of air staff the head of the 417 00:15:25,189 -->

was in civilian life after retirement 421 00:15:36,069 --> 00:15:33,120 so there's those stories as well and it 422 00:15:38,069 --> 00:15:36,079 fascinated me that history and then 423 00:15:40,470 --> 00:15:38,079 i loved when i was a little boy i just 424 00:15:41,749 --> 00:15:40,480 loved reading the lonely sea in the sky 425 00:15:45,189 --> 00:15:41,759 which is a beautiful 426 00:15:47,110 --> 00:15:45,199 autobiography written by a british 427 00:15:49,829 --> 00:15:47,120 sailor called francis chichester 428 00:15:51,110 --> 00:15:49,839 now known as francis chagista since 429 00:15:53,509 --> 00:15:51,120 passed on 430 00:15:54,629 --> 00:15:53,519 but he was a legend because he'd he'd 431 00:15:57,749 --> 00:15:54,639 sailed this 432 00:15:59,350 --> 00:15:57,759 little boat called gypsy uh moth i think 433 00:16:01,189 --> 00:15:59,360 it was 434 00:16:03,509 --> 00:16:01,199 in the plane but he flew around the 435 00:16:06,710 --> 00:16:03,519 world and he sailed around the world 436 00:16:08,870 --> 00:16:06,720 and um in the plane that he was flying 437 00:16:12,310 --> 00:16:08,880 when he was flying across the tasman 438 00:16:15,189 --> 00:16:12,320 in the 1930s he saw 439 00:16:16,710 --> 00:16:15,199 what sounds like a tic tac uh a 440 00:16:19,590 --> 00:16:16,720 cylindrical 441 00:16:22,310 --> 00:16:19,600 uh tubular sort of shaped object that 442 00:16:25,269 --> 00:16:22,320 came out of nowhere um uh 443 00:16:27,430 --> 00:16:25,279 dazzled him with its luminescence and um 444 00:16:28,230 --> 00:16:27,440 he couldn't explain what it was but as 445 00:16:30,550 --> 00:16:28,240 he acknowledged 446 00:16:33,110 --> 00:16:30,560 his autobiography it appeared to be what 447 00:16:36,710 --> 00:16:33,120 people these days would call 448 00:16:40,550 --> 00:16:36,720 a flying saucer and it fascinated me 449 00:16:42,629 --> 00:16:40,560 that australia's um recent history 450 00:16:43,670 --> 00:16:42,639 going back to the 1930s was recording 451 00:16:46,389 --> 00:16:43,680 these incidents and 452 00:16:47,269 --> 00:16:46,399 um then when i started going through the 453 00:16:50,949 --> 00:16:47,279 files of 454 00:16:53,189 --> 00:16:50,959 the aptly named daffy the department of 455 00:16:54,790 --> 00:16:53,199 air force intelligence in australia 456 00:16:56,949 --> 00:16:54,800 god knows why they ever gave themselves 457 00:17:00,150 --> 00:16:56,959 that name um they uh 458 00:17:02,230 --> 00:17:00,160 daffy uh had numerous filings reports 459 00:17:05,350 --> 00:17:02,240 and sightings reports that showed that 460 00:17:07,590 --> 00:17:05,360 there was a real concern about um 461 00:17:09,270 --> 00:17:07,600 anomalous objects that were being seen 462 00:17:10,789 --> 00:17:09,280 all across australia 463 00:17:15,029 --> 00:17:10,799 and one of the ones that really caught 464 00:17:19,350 --> 00:17:16,630 period i think it was about three or 465 00:17:21,350 --> 00:17:19,360 four weeks prior to the roswell sighting 466 00:17:23,110 --> 00:17:21,360 in 1947. 467 00:17:25,270 --> 00:17:23,120 there were so many sightings i think 468 00:17:25,590 --> 00:17:25,280 there were three independent sightings 469 00:17:28,630 --> 00:17:25,600 of 470 00:17:31,990 --> 00:17:28,640 five egg-shaped objects that came 471 00:17:33,669 --> 00:17:32,000 up out of the ocean near flinders ranges 472 00:17:36,789 --> 00:17:33,679 in south australia 473 00:17:39,669 --> 00:17:36,799 and these um egg-shaped 474 00:17:42,310 --> 00:17:39,679 objects were apparently intelligently 475 00:17:44,950 --> 00:17:42,320 controlled craft they were seen by 476 00:17:46,789 --> 00:17:44,960 three independent sets of witnesses each 477 00:17:48,630 --> 00:17:46,799 of whom corroborated each other about 478 00:17:50,630 --> 00:17:48,640 the spies and the shape 479 00:17:51,909 --> 00:17:50,640 and the incredible speeds of what they 480 00:17:54,310 --> 00:17:51,919 saw 481 00:17:56,310 --> 00:17:54,320 and uh it just fascinated me that these 482 00:17:58,710 --> 00:17:56,320 objects were being seen in that period 483 00:18:02,230 --> 00:17:58,720 immediately prior to what you now know 484 00:18:05,750 --> 00:18:02,240 as the mythical roswell sighting and 485 00:18:08,150 --> 00:18:05,760 like practically every sighting in the 486 00:18:09,990 --> 00:18:08,160 in the history uh especially when the 487 00:18:11,909 --> 00:18:10,000 british moved in and they very kindly 488 00:18:12,630 --> 00:18:11,919 decided to let their nuclear bombs off 489 00:18:15,990 --> 00:18:12,640 in 490 00:18:18,870 --> 00:18:16,000 complete bloody mess 491 00:18:20,789 --> 00:18:18,880 um there's this huge big empty area of 492 00:18:22,630 --> 00:18:20,799 desert in south australia that the 493 00:18:24,710 --> 00:18:22,640 position of the netherlands decided to 494 00:18:27,909 --> 00:18:24,720 use for nuclear weapons testing 495 00:18:31,270 --> 00:18:27,919 after the second world war and 496 00:18:34,470 --> 00:18:31,280 during those nuclear tests 497 00:18:38,150 --> 00:18:34,480 the number of sightings of 498 00:18:39,110 --> 00:18:38,160 strange anomalous craft or objects or 499 00:18:42,310 --> 00:18:39,120 lights was just 500 00:18:43,350 --> 00:18:42,320 extraordinary and they were all reported 501 00:18:45,830 --> 00:18:43,360 because this was a 502 00:18:47,750 --> 00:18:45,840 highly secure range with top of the line 503 00:18:49,669 --> 00:18:47,760 1940s radar 504 00:18:50,870 --> 00:18:49,679 these objects were being tracked flying 505 00:18:53,430 --> 00:18:50,880 in many cases at 506 00:18:55,590 --> 00:18:53,440 thousands of miles an hour and there was 507 00:18:57,750 --> 00:18:55,600 a genuine security concern that 508 00:18:58,630 --> 00:18:57,760 some foreign nation might be monitoring 509 00:19:01,990 --> 00:18:58,640 the british 510 00:19:04,470 --> 00:19:02,000 nuclear testing and a lot of work was 511 00:19:06,630 --> 00:19:04,480 put into investigating these 512 00:19:07,830 --> 00:19:06,640 these incidents and funnily enough when 513 00:19:10,070 --> 00:19:07,840 i was investigating 514 00:19:11,190 --> 00:19:10,080 my research i actually found a very old 515 00:19:14,870 --> 00:19:11,200 gentleman who 516 00:19:17,270 --> 00:19:14,880 remembered being at some of these tests 517 00:19:18,630 --> 00:19:17,280 in the 1960s i think they were rocket 518 00:19:21,750 --> 00:19:18,640 tests at the 519 00:19:23,830 --> 00:19:21,760 rocket range and he told me that 520 00:19:25,909 --> 00:19:23,840 he was scrambled because he was a 521 00:19:28,150 --> 00:19:25,919 physicist and he was scrambled to go and 522 00:19:30,310 --> 00:19:28,160 investigate a local woman 523 00:19:31,669 --> 00:19:30,320 who'd been walking with her dog and she 524 00:19:35,029 --> 00:19:31,679 claimed to have seen 525 00:19:37,430 --> 00:19:35,039 a tripod shaped craft 526 00:19:38,630 --> 00:19:37,440 i would say a tripod legged craft with a 527 00:19:41,909 --> 00:19:38,640 big egg shape 528 00:19:45,029 --> 00:19:41,919 landing in scrub near the uh 529 00:19:47,350 --> 00:19:45,039 the rocket range facility and 530 00:19:49,029 --> 00:19:47,360 it was quite funny because when i looked 531 00:19:51,430 --> 00:19:49,039 at the sightings report 532 00:19:53,110 --> 00:19:51,440 and compared it oh gosh what's the name 533 00:19:55,669 --> 00:19:53,120 of that patrolman who 534 00:19:56,470 --> 00:19:55,679 who saw an egg-shaped object barney 535 00:20:00,230 --> 00:19:56,480 zamora 536 00:20:02,710 --> 00:20:00,240 identical 537 00:20:03,990 --> 00:20:02,720 rendition of the zamora incident and uh 538 00:20:07,430 --> 00:20:04,000 essentially there was this 539 00:20:09,430 --> 00:20:07,440 um tripod crates uh tripod legged 540 00:20:11,590 --> 00:20:09,440 interchange craft that landed in 541 00:20:14,789 --> 00:20:11,600 bushland near the 542 00:20:16,470 --> 00:20:14,799 rocket testing range and uh he got there 543 00:20:18,470 --> 00:20:16,480 too late to actually see the craft 544 00:20:20,230 --> 00:20:18,480 but when he interviewed the woman and 545 00:20:22,470 --> 00:20:20,240 she took him to the place where this 546 00:20:23,590 --> 00:20:22,480 object had allegedly landed he burned 547 00:20:27,190 --> 00:20:23,600 and recorded the 548 00:20:28,950 --> 00:20:27,200 um indentations of the tripod fit 549 00:20:31,110 --> 00:20:28,960 and it really struck me when i looked at 550 00:20:32,710 --> 00:20:31,120 the files of the zamora incident the 551 00:20:35,830 --> 00:20:32,720 loyal incident 552 00:20:36,549 --> 00:20:35,840 the similarities between that object and 553 00:20:40,230 --> 00:20:36,559 what this 554 00:20:43,510 --> 00:20:40,240 person has seen in the 1940s or 50s 555 00:20:46,230 --> 00:20:43,520 and it's quite astonishing because 556 00:20:49,430 --> 00:20:46,240 you know we've all been told especially 557 00:20:50,470 --> 00:20:49,440 since project blue book in 1969 was shut 558 00:20:53,750 --> 00:20:50,480 down 559 00:20:56,310 --> 00:20:53,760 we've all been told that the uap is ufos 560 00:20:58,070 --> 00:20:56,320 and not a national security issue 561 00:20:58,470 --> 00:20:58,080 they're not a flight safety issue 562 00:21:01,190 --> 00:20:58,480 they're 563 00:21:02,950 --> 00:21:01,200 not really an area of concern at all and 564 00:21:06,310 --> 00:21:02,960 you can treat them with a degree of 565 00:21:08,549 --> 00:21:06,320 visible content or mockery because 566 00:21:09,830 --> 00:21:08,559 it's all rubbish you know authoritative 567 00:21:12,549 --> 00:21:09,840 scientists say so 568 00:21:15,750 --> 00:21:12,559 in your story and it fascinated me to 569 00:21:17,990 --> 00:21:15,760 speak that in the historical record 570 00:21:19,590 --> 00:21:18,000 incredibly secret formerly once 571 00:21:21,190 --> 00:21:19,600 incredibly secret archives of our 572 00:21:23,830 --> 00:21:21,200 defense department 573 00:21:26,070 --> 00:21:23,840 there was indeed a huge body of evidence 574 00:21:28,149 --> 00:21:26,080 as there is in your archives to show 575 00:21:29,510 --> 00:21:28,159 that science was taking it incredibly 576 00:21:31,990 --> 00:21:29,520 seriously indeed 577 00:21:33,590 --> 00:21:32,000 and there was a a huge concern about 578 00:21:36,549 --> 00:21:33,600 these objects that would clean 579 00:21:38,070 --> 00:21:36,559 breaching airspace in highly sensitive 580 00:21:39,990 --> 00:21:38,080 military areas 581 00:21:41,510 --> 00:21:40,000 and more importantly there was a clear 582 00:21:44,070 --> 00:21:41,520 expression of concern 583 00:21:44,950 --> 00:21:44,080 for a potential national security issue 584 00:21:49,190 --> 00:21:44,960 as 585 00:21:52,310 --> 00:21:49,200 indeed 76 years later 586 00:21:57,909 --> 00:21:52,320 the report to the 587 00:21:59,110 --> 00:21:57,919 congress has essentially acknowledged 588 00:22:00,710 --> 00:21:59,120 and 589 00:22:02,549 --> 00:22:00,720 one of the things you moved on to into 590 00:22:04,149 --> 00:22:02,559 the book you you went you went into uh 591 00:22:05,830 --> 00:22:04,159 roswell let me get back to what you just 592 00:22:07,669 --> 00:22:05,840 said one thing as far as 593 00:22:09,830 --> 00:22:07,679 meet you know military whether or not 594 00:22:12,070 --> 00:22:09,840 there's a cover-up and then 595 00:22:13,750 --> 00:22:12,080 people also talk about the media cover 596 00:22:15,669 --> 00:22:13,760 and i know you believe that it's more of 597 00:22:16,630 --> 00:22:15,679 a stigma issue with the media but what 598 00:22:18,230 --> 00:22:16,640 is your opinion on 599 00:22:20,870 --> 00:22:18,240 you know a lot of people have written 600 00:22:23,350 --> 00:22:20,880 and spoken about project mockingbird 601 00:22:24,870 --> 00:22:23,360 where they cia infiltrated the media and 602 00:22:27,190 --> 00:22:24,880 put people into certain places 603 00:22:28,310 --> 00:22:27,200 covering you know trying to manage the 604 00:22:30,789 --> 00:22:28,320 news do you think there's any do you 605 00:22:32,710 --> 00:22:30,799 think that may be going on now as far as 606 00:22:34,549 --> 00:22:32,720 you know managing the the news and we've 607 00:22:36,549 --> 00:22:34,559 we've spoken about maybe 608 00:22:38,630 --> 00:22:36,559 there is some influence with certain 609 00:22:41,750 --> 00:22:38,640 defense reporters maybe 610 00:22:43,909 --> 00:22:41,760 you know trying to placate their sources 611 00:22:45,350 --> 00:22:43,919 maybe with you know the 2020 new york 612 00:22:46,950 --> 00:22:45,360 times article because we 613 00:22:48,789 --> 00:22:46,960 i think we both know there was a lot 614 00:22:49,990 --> 00:22:48,799 more to that article that did not make 615 00:22:52,070 --> 00:22:50,000 it in i mean 616 00:22:53,750 --> 00:22:52,080 we know unfortunately when ralph 617 00:22:54,310 --> 00:22:53,760 blumenthal went live on facebook by 618 00:22:56,149 --> 00:22:54,320 mistake 619 00:22:57,510 --> 00:22:56,159 he was talking about wilson davis so 620 00:22:59,110 --> 00:22:57,520 they looked into that i know they looked 621 00:23:02,149 --> 00:22:59,120 into the 1961 622 00:23:04,230 --> 00:23:02,159 mj-12 document which never made it in so 623 00:23:05,669 --> 00:23:04,240 how much management i know i know you 624 00:23:07,350 --> 00:23:05,679 said you don't think there's a 625 00:23:08,630 --> 00:23:07,360 conspiracy in the media and i agree with 626 00:23:10,230 --> 00:23:08,640 you but how much management do you think 627 00:23:12,070 --> 00:23:10,240 there's going on at the higher levels 628 00:23:14,789 --> 00:23:12,080 like something at the new york times 629 00:23:17,510 --> 00:23:14,799 look uh i'll be honest with you i i 630 00:23:19,430 --> 00:23:17,520 truly don't believe that there are 631 00:23:22,149 --> 00:23:19,440 agents of our intelligence services 632 00:23:23,909 --> 00:23:22,159 going around gagging edges in newspapers 633 00:23:25,510 --> 00:23:23,919 uh i suspect there might have been i 634 00:23:27,270 --> 00:23:25,520 think the evidence is strong to show 635 00:23:30,310 --> 00:23:27,280 that back in the 636 00:23:32,710 --> 00:23:30,320 50s and the 60s there was an intelligent 637 00:23:33,110 --> 00:23:32,720 service presence in media organizations 638 00:23:34,789 --> 00:23:33,120 and 639 00:23:36,230 --> 00:23:34,799 i'm aware of the fact that our public 640 00:23:39,830 --> 00:23:36,240 broadcaster in australia 641 00:23:41,669 --> 00:23:39,840 it had tacit links with the intelligence 642 00:23:43,510 --> 00:23:41,679 services so that it made it very hard 643 00:23:45,510 --> 00:23:43,520 especially during the cold war 644 00:23:47,110 --> 00:23:45,520 the journalists break stories that were 645 00:23:47,350 --> 00:23:47,120 nationally sensitive because they were 646 00:23:50,470 --> 00:23:47,360 all 647 00:23:51,750 --> 00:23:50,480 vetted by a denoted committing under a 648 00:23:54,470 --> 00:23:51,760 very british system 649 00:23:56,549 --> 00:23:54,480 it was kind of like oh chap please bring 650 00:23:57,590 --> 00:23:56,559 me your stories that might expose issues 651 00:23:59,190 --> 00:23:57,600 of nationals 652 00:24:01,510 --> 00:23:59,200 will tell you whether or not you can run 653 00:24:03,110 --> 00:24:01,520 them and and i know that's changed 654 00:24:04,710 --> 00:24:03,120 because when i worked for 655 00:24:07,190 --> 00:24:04,720 the public broadcaster i did a big 656 00:24:07,990 --> 00:24:07,200 expose on our equivalent of the cia 657 00:24:11,029 --> 00:24:08,000 which 658 00:24:13,110 --> 00:24:11,039 infuriated our government and um very 659 00:24:15,269 --> 00:24:13,120 narrowly avoided me getting prosecuted 660 00:24:16,950 --> 00:24:15,279 supposedly revealing national security 661 00:24:18,070 --> 00:24:16,960 secrets but um 662 00:24:20,149 --> 00:24:18,080 you know there was a huge royal 663 00:24:21,990 --> 00:24:20,159 commission and it exposed all manner of 664 00:24:24,549 --> 00:24:22,000 issues and problems in our intelligence 665 00:24:27,029 --> 00:24:24,559 services which were remedied as a result 666 00:24:28,310 --> 00:24:27,039 but um to be honest with you as a 667 00:24:30,070 --> 00:24:28,320 journalist who's covered 668 00:24:31,750 --> 00:24:30,080 national security intelligence and 669 00:24:34,870 --> 00:24:31,760 defence issues 670 00:24:36,710 --> 00:24:34,880 the bigger issue frankly with ufos 671 00:24:39,029 --> 00:24:36,720 is the stigma and the contempt in the 672 00:24:42,230 --> 00:24:39,039 ridicule that's attached to the subject 673 00:24:45,110 --> 00:24:42,240 such that editors are acculturated who 674 00:24:47,430 --> 00:24:45,120 treat the subject with 675 00:24:48,630 --> 00:24:47,440 to do they just don't think that ufos 676 00:24:51,029 --> 00:24:48,640 are a story 677 00:24:53,510 --> 00:24:51,039 and this permeates not just newspapers 678 00:24:55,029 --> 00:24:53,520 and television but also the entire media 679 00:24:56,789 --> 00:24:55,039 and publishing industry 680 00:24:59,269 --> 00:24:56,799 i can tell you it's been a hard road to 681 00:25:00,470 --> 00:24:59,279 persuade a a major publisher like heart 682 00:25:02,549 --> 00:25:00,480 of papa collins 683 00:25:03,510 --> 00:25:02,559 to their credit to take this issue 684 00:25:05,590 --> 00:25:03,520 seriously 685 00:25:06,789 --> 00:25:05,600 and to let a journalist like me write a 686 00:25:09,269 --> 00:25:06,799 book 687 00:25:10,390 --> 00:25:09,279 which is a serious insect journalists 688 00:25:13,110 --> 00:25:10,400 take on the 689 00:25:14,230 --> 00:25:13,120 phenomenon and i was laughing this 690 00:25:17,990 --> 00:25:14,240 morning because 691 00:25:21,110 --> 00:25:18,000 even amazon categorized my book under um 692 00:25:25,269 --> 00:25:21,120 ufos and new age 693 00:25:27,350 --> 00:25:25,279 and uh i was in i was in 694 00:25:29,029 --> 00:25:27,360 the strand books one of my favorite book 695 00:25:30,310 --> 00:25:29,039 shops in the world in new york a few 696 00:25:31,990 --> 00:25:30,320 weeks ago 697 00:25:33,750 --> 00:25:32,000 and uh it's on fifth avenue it's the 698 00:25:35,990 --> 00:25:33,760 world's biggest bookshop i think but 699 00:25:38,390 --> 00:25:36,000 it's just such a magnificent bookshop 700 00:25:41,190 --> 00:25:38,400 love it but i was infuriated because i 701 00:25:42,789 --> 00:25:41,200 was trying to find the ufo section and 702 00:25:44,070 --> 00:25:42,799 i said to them i said where's your ufo 703 00:25:44,870 --> 00:25:44,080 section and then they gave me this kind 704 00:25:48,149 --> 00:25:44,880 of 705 00:25:50,630 --> 00:25:48,159 i look at those and um and 706 00:25:51,830 --> 00:25:50,640 uh i was shown into the fantasy section 707 00:25:53,350 --> 00:25:51,840 of strand books 708 00:25:54,870 --> 00:25:53,360 right up the back with all the dirty 709 00:25:55,990 --> 00:25:54,880 books and all the weird sort of 710 00:25:59,029 --> 00:25:56,000 psychological new 711 00:25:59,750 --> 00:25:59,039 age mysticism books and uh i actually 712 00:26:01,269 --> 00:25:59,760 said to the 713 00:26:03,750 --> 00:26:01,279 guy who showed me i said why don't you 714 00:26:05,190 --> 00:26:03,760 put all the ufo books here and you have 715 00:26:07,510 --> 00:26:05,200 that's where we put all the weird 716 00:26:10,310 --> 00:26:07,520 you know 717 00:26:10,789 --> 00:26:10,320 i think i think there is a stigma and uh 718 00:26:14,390 --> 00:26:10,799 i 719 00:26:16,630 --> 00:26:14,400 um 720 00:26:18,789 --> 00:26:16,640 i am aware and i've written about it in 721 00:26:21,110 --> 00:26:18,799 my book i am aware that there was 722 00:26:21,909 --> 00:26:21,120 historically intelligent service 723 00:26:24,149 --> 00:26:21,919 meddling 724 00:26:26,470 --> 00:26:24,159 in the phenomenon and try to suppress 725 00:26:28,230 --> 00:26:26,480 public coverage and awareness of it 726 00:26:29,990 --> 00:26:28,240 um to the extent that if you go to the 727 00:26:31,669 --> 00:26:30,000 cia's library 728 00:26:33,029 --> 00:26:31,679 and and you know there are books that 729 00:26:35,110 --> 00:26:33,039 have been written about this issue 730 00:26:36,789 --> 00:26:35,120 creditable books i think tell the story 731 00:26:39,669 --> 00:26:36,799 much better than i do 732 00:26:40,710 --> 00:26:39,679 um the cia made a conscious decision to 733 00:26:44,310 --> 00:26:40,720 shut down 734 00:26:44,789 --> 00:26:44,320 public awareness of ufos a decision was 735 00:26:48,230 --> 00:26:44,799 made 736 00:26:50,549 --> 00:26:48,240 that this was a subject matter that was 737 00:26:52,070 --> 00:26:50,559 not publicly discussed and so they 738 00:26:54,070 --> 00:26:52,080 adopted a deliberate policy 739 00:26:56,310 --> 00:26:54,080 of stigmatizing and ridiculing the 740 00:26:58,549 --> 00:26:56,320 subject and that's the problem 741 00:27:00,470 --> 00:26:58,559 that's the problem at the desk level in 742 00:27:02,390 --> 00:27:00,480 the newspaper that when a reporter like 743 00:27:05,430 --> 00:27:02,400 me would walk in and say 744 00:27:07,590 --> 00:27:05,440 i've got a ufo story or a 745 00:27:08,470 --> 00:27:07,600 story about an anomalous phenomena or an 746 00:27:11,830 --> 00:27:08,480 object that's been 747 00:27:13,909 --> 00:27:11,840 seen in the sky the default mode 748 00:27:17,269 --> 00:27:13,919 inside the newspaper was to treat it 749 00:27:19,029 --> 00:27:17,279 with extreme ridicule and skepticism 750 00:27:21,110 --> 00:27:19,039 to the extent that you know as happened 751 00:27:21,990 --> 00:27:21,120 to dave fraver and the pilots on the us 752 00:27:23,830 --> 00:27:22,000 estimates 753 00:27:25,590 --> 00:27:23,840 you know people would wear tinfoil hats 754 00:27:26,149 --> 00:27:25,600 or leave a tinfoil hat on your desk you 755 00:27:29,029 --> 00:27:26,159 know 756 00:27:29,830 --> 00:27:29,039 it's um there's something about it that 757 00:27:32,230 --> 00:27:29,840 invites 758 00:27:34,789 --> 00:27:32,240 ridicule and the irony is the thing that 759 00:27:36,870 --> 00:27:34,799 i find fascinating i've realized there's 760 00:27:37,909 --> 00:27:36,880 a huge cognitive dissonance between what 761 00:27:40,070 --> 00:27:37,919 the public actually 762 00:27:43,029 --> 00:27:40,080 thinks of this subject matter and what 763 00:27:45,190 --> 00:27:43,039 the evidence actually showed 764 00:27:46,470 --> 00:27:45,200 no i agree and my first starting news 765 00:27:48,789 --> 00:27:46,480 was back in the 80s and 766 00:27:50,549 --> 00:27:48,799 the only time i would see a ufo story 767 00:27:51,990 --> 00:27:50,559 was that the last you know the last 30 768 00:27:53,190 --> 00:27:52,000 minutes in the united states it's called 769 00:27:54,389 --> 00:27:53,200 a kicker story 770 00:27:56,310 --> 00:27:54,399 you know and they'd play some weird 771 00:27:58,710 --> 00:27:56,320 music and they'd make a joke about it 772 00:27:59,510 --> 00:27:58,720 and we've come a long way since then so 773 00:28:00,950 --> 00:27:59,520 um 774 00:28:02,549 --> 00:28:00,960 well it was funny i was only watching 775 00:28:03,110 --> 00:28:02,559 last night joe there's this amazing 776 00:28:05,510 --> 00:28:03,120 story 777 00:28:06,230 --> 00:28:05,520 and it's on youtube and there's a 778 00:28:08,149 --> 00:28:06,240 gentleman 779 00:28:10,470 --> 00:28:08,159 who i think he's part of some kind of 780 00:28:13,669 --> 00:28:10,480 religious organization but he's a 781 00:28:16,149 --> 00:28:13,679 very large african-american man 782 00:28:17,510 --> 00:28:16,159 and he's wearing a robe and the reporter 783 00:28:20,070 --> 00:28:17,520 is invited to a park 784 00:28:22,470 --> 00:28:20,080 and the gentleman summons a ufo have you 785 00:28:25,110 --> 00:28:22,480 seen that imagery it's project yahweh 786 00:28:26,070 --> 00:28:25,120 and um yeah yeah and it's hilarious 787 00:28:27,990 --> 00:28:26,080 because 788 00:28:29,110 --> 00:28:28,000 i mean the news organization belittled 789 00:28:31,430 --> 00:28:29,120 the whole story 790 00:28:32,549 --> 00:28:31,440 but the hilarious thing is the guy 791 00:28:35,830 --> 00:28:32,559 really did 792 00:28:38,549 --> 00:28:35,840 apparently summons some kind of object 793 00:28:40,230 --> 00:28:38,559 yeah i thought people i think i think 794 00:28:40,870 --> 00:28:40,240 they were balloons i think people have 795 00:28:44,470 --> 00:28:40,880 debunked 796 00:28:46,549 --> 00:28:44,480 him specifically but yeah but i mean 797 00:28:48,789 --> 00:28:46,559 there are other people that i've seen 798 00:28:49,669 --> 00:28:48,799 claim to do that george knapp just did a 799 00:28:51,669 -->

00:29:51,190 --> 00:29:47,679 have stumbled across evidence of the 831 00:29:53,269 --> 00:29:51,200 american retrieval of a ufo program and 832 00:29:54,149 --> 00:29:53,279 its attempts to re-engineer it and he 833 00:29:57,750 --> 00:29:54,159 told 834 00:29:59,350 --> 00:29:57,760 his canadian uh government masters 835 00:30:02,310 --> 00:29:59,360 in a memo that has since been 836

even than 839 00:30:11,590 --> 00:30:08,159 the h-bomb and 840 00:30:12,630 --> 00:30:11,600 uh this was a memo that was recovered i 841 00:30:14,710 --> 00:30:12,640 think actually after 842 00:30:16,549 --> 00:30:14,720 smith's death but essentially it's been 843 00:30:20,070 --> 00:30:16,559 verified by his son 844 00:30:22,549 --> 00:30:20,080 and indeed by other people that he was 845 00:30:23,190 --> 00:30:22,559 indeed introduced to people in the 846 00:30:25,110 --> 00:30:23,200 american 847 00:30:27,190 --> 00:30:25,120 military industrial establishment in the 848 00:30:32,310 --> 00:30:27,200 1940s and 50s who 849 00:30:34,789 --> 00:30:32,320 um were allegedly reportedly involved in 850 00:30:37,190 --> 00:30:34,799 gotta say a crash retrieval a ufo crash 851 00:30:40,149 --> 00:30:37,200 retrieval program that was attempting to 852 00:30:40,870 --> 00:30:40,159 back engineer this technology and uh one 853 00:30:43,590 --> 00:30:40,880 of the people 854 00:30:44,470 --> 00:30:43,600 who acknowledged fascinatingly that he 855 00:30:47,269 --> 00:30:44,480 engaged 856 00:30:49,990 --> 00:30:47,279 with mr dart this work was a guy called 857 00:30:50,870 --> 00:30:50,000 robert sebastian who was a professor at 858 00:30:54,070 --> 00:30:50,880 a very eminent 859 00:30:55,750 --> 00:30:54,080 university and as i've often found in my 860 00:30:56,310 --> 00:30:55,760 research a lot of the work's been done 861 00:30:59,669 --> 00:30:56,320 before 862 00:31:02,710 --> 00:30:59,679 right by very dogged and dedicated 863 00:31:04,230 --> 00:31:02,720 uh researchers in the ufo field and he 864 00:31:06,470 --> 00:31:04,240 was written a letter uh 865 00:31:07,669 --> 00:31:06,480 and asked you know had he engaged with 866 00:31:09,909 --> 00:31:07,679 the smith character and 867 00:31:11,110 --> 00:31:09,919 um you know was he aware of this program 868 00:31:12,870 --> 00:31:11,120 that was going on and 869 00:31:15,350 --> 00:31:12,880 sebastian i can't remember the exact 870 00:31:18,149 --> 00:31:15,360 form of words but he basically admitted 871 00:31:18,950 --> 00:31:18,159 that there was this program and that you 872 00:31:21,509 --> 00:31:18,960 can understand 873 00:31:23,190 --> 00:31:21,519 why it was being kept secret and i 874 00:31:26,710 --> 00:31:23,200 noticed that there's been other 875 00:31:28,230 --> 00:31:26,720 people in the um american military and 876 00:31:31,509 --> 00:31:28,240 industrial establishment who basically 877 00:31:33,269 --> 00:31:31,519 acknowledged implicitly or explicitly 878 00:31:36,149 --> 00:31:33,279 the existence of this 879 00:31:36,630 --> 00:31:36,159 program if you like uh over the years 880 00:31:38,630 --> 00:31:36,640 and 881 00:31:40,870 --> 00:31:38,640 i notice also that it's been explicitly 882 00:31:43,029 --> 00:31:40,880 and categorically denied by 883 00:31:44,230 --> 00:31:43,039 i think the obama white house among 884 00:31:47,830 --> 00:31:44,240 others um 885 00:31:50,549 --> 00:31:47,840 in a press release uh and ultimately 886 00:31:52,950 --> 00:31:50,559 in the face of those denials you have 887 00:31:54,470 --> 00:31:52,960 evidence from people like robert sabacho 888 00:31:57,669 --> 00:31:54,480 wilbert smith 889 00:32:00,230 --> 00:31:57,679 and a sort of a slow 890 00:32:02,470 --> 00:32:00,240 concatenation of evidence that suggests 891 00:32:04,549 --> 00:32:02,480 that there is an alternative narrative 892 00:32:07,029 --> 00:32:04,559 and look you know i've i've been lied to 893 00:32:09,029 --> 00:32:07,039 before as a journalist i've seen 894 00:32:11,909 --> 00:32:09,039 military cover-ups i've seen government 895 00:32:14,549 --> 00:32:11,919 cover-ups governments do by 896 00:32:16,389 --> 00:32:14,559 part of running a country that sometimes 897 00:32:17,990 --> 00:32:16,399 you do lie to protect the national 898 00:32:20,549 --> 00:32:18,000 security interest 899 00:32:22,710 --> 00:32:20,559 and so i understand that and i don't 900 00:32:25,750 --> 00:32:22,720 think it's entirely outside the realm of 901 00:32:29,029 --> 00:32:25,760 possibility that the american government 902 00:32:31,269 --> 00:32:29,039 is and has been concealing for some time 903 00:32:33,029 --> 00:32:31,279 some kind of secret program involving 904 00:32:35,830 --> 00:32:33,039 the retrieval of 905 00:32:38,070 --> 00:32:35,840 non-human technology and the reason i 906 00:32:41,350 --> 00:32:38,080 say that is because of what i've 907 00:32:44,789 --> 00:32:41,360 discovered i've talked to 908 00:32:46,630 --> 00:32:44,799 quite a few people in my book uh 909 00:32:48,870 --> 00:32:46,640 and i've quoted people on the record 910 00:32:52,070 --> 00:32:48,880 who've made public comments 911 00:32:54,870 --> 00:32:52,080 uh notably level zondo chris mellon eric 912 00:32:56,310 --> 00:32:54,880 davis dr eric davis whom i know you know 913 00:32:58,310 --> 00:32:56,320 and these people are very highly 914 00:32:59,590 --> 00:32:58,320 regarded people who've worked inside the 915 00:33:01,909 --> 00:32:59,600 military industrial 916 00:33:02,710 --> 00:33:01,919 intelligence establishment and they 917 00:33:04,789 --> 00:33:02,720 they're saying 918 00:33:06,630 --> 00:33:04,799 the us has recovered some kind of 919 00:33:09,350 --> 00:33:06,640 advanced technology that 920 00:33:10,789 --> 00:33:09,360 amd or indeed in some cases they're 921 00:33:14,950 --> 00:33:10,799 flatly asserting 922 00:33:17,190 --> 00:33:14,960 is off this world it's not human um 923 00:33:19,110 --> 00:33:17,200 i i just find that amazing and when 924 00:33:20,389 --> 00:33:19,120 you've got a paper of the reputation of 925 00:33:22,230 --> 00:33:20,399 the new york times 926 00:33:24,630 --> 00:33:22,240 running a story i think in july last 927 00:33:27,990 --> 00:33:24,640 year basically saying 928 00:33:29,350 --> 00:33:28,000 that they're aware of allegations of 929 00:33:32,389 --> 00:33:29,360 recovered non-human 930 00:33:33,990 --> 00:33:32,399 advanced technology of craft being 931 00:33:35,990 --> 00:33:34,000 recovered 932 00:33:37,669 --> 00:33:36,000 this needs to be taken seriously and 933 00:33:39,590 --> 00:33:37,679 there's a the thing that really strikes 934 00:33:40,389 --> 00:33:39,600 me is the evidence from wilbur smith and 935 00:33:43,029 --> 00:33:40,399 sebastian 936 00:33:44,470 --> 00:33:43,039 and edgar mitchell the former astronaut 937 00:33:48,470 --> 00:33:44,480 there's there's a body of evidence to 938 00:33:52,870 --> 00:33:48,480 support the notion that there has been 939 00:33:55,669 --> 00:33:52,880 recoveries and i i followed um 940 00:33:57,269 --> 00:33:55,679 the interesting story of the history of 941 00:34:00,789 --> 00:33:57,279 the aztec 942 00:34:03,750 --> 00:34:00,799 alleged ufo flying saucer retrieval as 943 00:34:06,630 --> 00:34:03,760 part of a documentary that i made in may 944 00:34:07,590 --> 00:34:06,640 and i spent some time with scott and 945 00:34:10,149 --> 00:34:07,600 suzanne 946 00:34:11,030 --> 00:34:10,159 ramsey and um went through the evidence 947 00:34:14,230 --> 00:34:11,040 that they've 948 00:34:15,829 --> 00:34:14,240 collected um going right back to the uh 949 00:34:19,190 --> 00:34:15,839 you know the books that were written in 950 00:34:19,589 --> 00:34:19,200 the 1950s that suggested that there had 951 00:34:22,869 --> 00:34:19,599 been 952 00:34:25,589 --> 00:34:22,879 crash retrievals including a retrieval 953 00:34:26,069 --> 00:34:25,599 near the town of aztec and new mexico 954 00:34:29,109 --> 00:34:26,079 and 955 00:34:29,750 --> 00:34:29,119 it fascinated me because i i can't say i 956 00:34:32,310 --> 00:34:29,760 believe 957 00:34:34,149 --> 00:34:32,320 absolutely that a gigantic flying saucer 958 00:34:37,270 --> 00:34:34,159 was recovered by the u.s military 959 00:34:39,270 --> 00:34:37,280 air force uh in that period 960 00:34:41,430 --> 00:34:39,280 but i do think there's a body of 961 00:34:42,710 --> 00:34:41,440 evidence there that any reasonable 962 00:34:43,990 --> 00:34:42,720 journalist or any reasonable 963 00:34:46,950 --> 00:34:44,000 investigator would think 964 00:34:48,389 --> 00:34:46,960 amongst to a circumstantial prima facie 965 00:34:50,869 --> 00:34:48,399 case that should be 966 00:34:52,790 --> 00:34:50,879 investigated and i don't believe it can 967 00:34:54,629 --> 00:34:52,800 be dismissed out of hand 968 00:34:56,869 --> 00:34:54,639 and this is the thing that really shocks 969 00:35:00,790 --> 00:34:56,879 me is that there was a moment 970 00:35:02,390 --> 00:35:00,800 in my research where i've been resisting 971 00:35:04,630 --> 00:35:02,400 the possibility in my head i've been 972 00:35:06,390 --> 00:35:04,640 thinking okay i can i can handle the 973 00:35:08,870 --> 00:35:06,400 notion of 974 00:35:10,710 --> 00:35:08,880 possible aliens extraterrestrials 975 00:35:12,470 --> 00:35:10,720 visiting planet earth but 976 00:35:14,550 --> 00:35:12,480 you know in my head it just didn't seem 977 00:35:15,349 --> 00:35:14,560 plausible to me that the us could have 978 00:35:17,750 --> 00:35:15,359 recovered 979 00:35:19,349 --> 00:35:17,760 craft and i i kind of implicitly 980 00:35:21,670 --> 00:35:19,359 dismissed roswell and 981 00:35:22,710 --> 00:35:21,680 aztec and del rio and all of these other 982 00:35:25,030 --> 00:35:22,720 cases 983 00:35:26,470 --> 00:35:25,040 you know trinity i noticed yuck valet 984 00:35:27,430 --> 00:35:26,480 and paula harris have done their 985 00:35:29,349 --> 00:35:27,440 excellent look on 986 00:35:31,670 --> 00:35:29,359 another another crash that allegedly 987 00:35:34,230 --> 00:35:31,680 occurred shortly um 988 00:35:36,950 --> 00:35:34,240 after the trinity explosion the atomic 989 00:35:39,190 --> 00:35:36,960 explosion in 1945 990 00:35:41,270 --> 00:35:39,200 you can't dismiss these cases out of 991 00:35:42,790 --> 00:35:41,280 hand because the historical record has 992 00:35:46,630 --> 00:35:42,800 left a trail 993 00:35:48,230 --> 00:35:46,640 and there are arms of the american 994 00:35:49,589 --> 00:35:48,240 government that have tried to obscure 995 00:35:51,270 --> 00:35:49,599 that trail 996 00:35:53,349 --> 00:35:51,280 that they've tried to put people off 997 00:35:55,190 --> 00:35:53,359 they've tried to discredit people 998 00:35:57,270 --> 00:35:55,200 like frank scully the guy who wrote the 999 00:36:00,470 --> 00:35:57,280 book behind the flying sources 1000 00:36:03,510 --> 00:36:00,480 but the the interesting thing is that 1001 00:36:05,670 --> 00:36:03,520 i i think there is evidence there 1002 00:36:08,069 --> 00:36:05,680 that suggests that the united states 1003 00:36:11,910 --> 00:36:08,079 government may well have recovered 1004 00:36:13,910 --> 00:36:11,920 as i think chris mellon has described it 1005 00:36:15,349 --> 00:36:13,920 or actually louis lozando exotic 1006 00:36:20,550 --> 00:36:15,359 technology 1007 00:36:22,069 --> 00:36:20,560 think is worthy of intense investigation 1008 00:36:23,910 --> 00:36:22,079 is there another country in the world 1009 00:36:25,990 --> 00:36:23,920 that has suddenly made an incredible 1010 00:36:29,030 --> 00:36:26,000 advancement in technology to the extent 1011 00:36:30,150 --> 00:36:29,040 that it's operating gra craft that 1012 00:36:32,950 --> 00:36:30,160 appear to be 1013 00:36:35,750 --> 00:36:32,960 capable of anti-gravity propulsion of 1014 00:36:37,589 --> 00:36:35,760 extraordinary speeds and maneuvers where 1015 00:36:38,950 --> 00:36:37,599 the occupants of the craft don't appear 1016 00:36:41,190 --> 00:36:38,960 to be suffering any kind of 1017 00:36:42,950 --> 00:36:41,200 key courses i mean the only plausible 1018 00:36:44,710 --> 00:36:42,960 explanation for the kind of technology 1019 00:36:47,430 --> 00:36:44,720 that we're seeing is that 1020 00:36:48,950 --> 00:36:47,440 someone or something has made some kind 1021 00:36:51,670 --> 00:36:48,960 of incredible 1022 00:36:52,390 --> 00:36:51,680 technological advancement far beyond 1023 00:36:56,069 --> 00:36:52,400 known 1024 00:36:58,630 --> 00:36:56,079 human science that's why i find what 1025 00:36:59,910 --> 00:36:58,640 the pentagon has essentially admitted in 1026 00:37:03,190 --> 00:36:59,920 the last two years 1027 00:37:06,310 --> 00:37:03,200 so exciting and fascinating because 1028 00:37:07,990 --> 00:37:06,320 they're slowly dribbling out admissions 1029 00:37:08,710 --> 00:37:08,000 that when you put them together even 1030 00:37:11,270 --> 00:37:08,720 though they're not 1031 00:37:12,470 --> 00:37:11,280 directly saying it when you put them 1032 00:37:14,390 --> 00:37:12,480 together 1033 00:37:15,750 --> 00:37:14,400 you're led to only one logical 1034 00:37:19,430 --> 00:37:15,760 conclusion 1035 00:37:22,470 --> 00:37:19,440 that there is an anomalous 1036 00:37:24,150 --> 00:37:22,480 phenomenon occurring 1037 00:37:25,670 --> 00:37:24,160 not only in our atmosphere it's 1038 00:37:28,790 --> 00:37:25,680 occurring in the water as well 1039 00:37:32,870 --> 00:37:28,800 underwater i believe it's also occurring 1040 00:37:36,630 --> 00:37:32,880 in space in orbit and it's displaying 1041 00:37:39,750 --> 00:37:36,640 speeds far far beyond known human 1042 00:37:42,950 --> 00:37:39,760 technology maneuvers that are impossible 1043 00:37:46,150 --> 00:37:42,960 with classic aerospace or rocket or 1044 00:37:52,870 --> 00:37:49,510 it appears to be following those 1045 00:37:54,390 --> 00:37:52,880 observables that lou elizonto has so 1046 00:37:57,030 --> 00:37:54,400 well described you know 1047 00:37:57,950 --> 00:37:57,040 it's capable of stealth it's capable of 1048 00:38:00,150 --> 00:37:57,960 interfering 1049 00:38:01,990 --> 00:38:00,160 electromagnetically with the the radar 1050 00:38:03,270 --> 00:38:02,000 system with the observational sensor 1051 00:38:05,670 --> 00:38:03,280 systems of 1052 00:38:07,030 --> 00:38:05,680 terrestrial technology this is 1053 00:38:09,270 --> 00:38:07,040 fascinating whatever this 1054 00:38:10,390 --> 00:38:09,280 is it's way way more advanced than what 1055 00:38:13,430 --> 00:38:10,400 we've got 1056 00:38:15,510 --> 00:38:13,440 so this is now an acknowledged 1057 00:38:16,950 --> 00:38:15,520 possible probable national security 1058 00:38:20,470 --> 00:38:16,960 issue officially 1059 00:38:22,230 --> 00:38:20,480 by the uap task force in its advice to 1060 00:38:24,470 --> 00:38:22,240 congress it's acknowledging that there's 1061 00:38:25,430 --> 00:38:24,480 a plausible national security concern 1062 00:38:27,510 --> 00:38:25,440 here 1063 00:38:28,870 --> 00:38:27,520 it is also flatly acknowledged that 1064 00:38:31,829 --> 00:38:28,880 because of the 11 1065 00:38:33,430 --> 00:38:31,839 near misses that have been reported by 1066 00:38:36,069 --> 00:38:33,440 u.s pilots 1067 00:38:38,790 --> 00:38:36,079 in the 144 incidents that that 1068 00:38:40,470 --> 00:38:38,800 preliminary report did investigate 1069 00:38:41,990 --> 00:38:40,480 it's acknowledged that this is a flight 1070 00:38:44,390 --> 00:38:42,000 safety issue 1071 00:38:46,710 --> 00:38:44,400 so there you have it after 60 years of 1072 00:38:48,950 --> 00:38:46,720 denials since project bluebook that the 1073 00:38:50,550 --> 00:38:48,960 us is interested in ufos 1074 00:38:53,589 --> 00:38:50,560 it turns out it's been investigating 1075 00:38:55,349 --> 00:38:53,599 them all along it turns out that the um 1076 00:38:57,910 --> 00:38:55,359 the phenomenon has been a subject of 1077 00:39:00,069 --> 00:38:57,920 very very active interest by the us 1078 00:39:01,829 --> 00:39:00,079 government and different agencies 1079 00:39:03,589 --> 00:39:01,839 and more importantly there's a clear 1080 00:39:05,349 --> 00:39:03,599 understanding that it represents both a 1081 00:39:06,630 --> 00:39:05,359 flight safety and a national security 1082 00:39:09,670 --> 00:39:06,640 concern 1083 00:39:11,670 --> 00:39:09,680 so why the deceit why the lying and 1084 00:39:13,510 --> 00:39:11,680 and i think we're at a very interesting 1085 00:39:17,670 --> 00:39:13,520 paradigm now a turning point 1086 00:39:20,470 --> 00:39:17,680 shift in um in thinking and i i do think 1087 00:39:21,430 --> 00:39:20,480 that there are people in the government 1088 00:39:23,990 --> 00:39:21,440 in your government 1089 00:39:25,750 --> 00:39:24,000 and possibly also in mine who are 1090 00:39:28,870 --> 00:39:25,760 consciously preparing the public 1091 00:39:30,870 --> 00:39:28,880 for further revelations yeah it does 1092 00:39:32,390 --> 00:39:30,880 it definitely seems that way and as far 1093 00:39:34,870 --> 00:39:32,400 as crash retrieval i 1094 00:39:36,710 --> 00:39:34,880 i told people a couple of years ago when 1095 00:39:38,230 --> 00:39:36,720 eric davis was working for earth tech 1096 00:39:39,829 --> 00:39:38,240 and how put off 1097 00:39:41,270 --> 00:39:39,839 i asked him and i said i told people i 1098 00:39:43,030 --> 00:39:41,280 would give the answer i said as far as 1099 00:39:45,349 --> 00:39:43,040 the crash retrieval program 1100 00:39:47,190 --> 00:39:45,359 how confident are you that it's real on 1101 00:39:49,349 --> 00:39:47,200 a scale of one to ten 1102 00:39:50,390 --> 00:39:49,359 and how many others are as confident as 1103 00:39:52,390 --> 00:39:50,400 you 1104 00:39:54,550 --> 00:39:52,400 and i haven't shared this before but i 1105 00:39:57,589 --> 00:39:54,560 feel comfortable sharing this he said 1106 00:40:01,109 --> 00:39:57,599 on a scale of one to ten a hundred 1107 00:40:04,309 --> 00:40:01,119 i mean and he said several others most 1108 00:40:07,670 --> 00:40:04,319 dead now are a hundred on the same scale 1109 00:40:08,470 --> 00:40:07,680 so it's like you know i see that i see 1110 00:40:10,550 --> 00:40:08,480 the comments by 1111 00:40:12,950 --> 00:40:10,560 christopher mellon by luis elizondo i 1112 00:40:15,190 --> 00:40:12,960 see the sarbaca comments you know 1113 00:40:17,190 --> 00:40:15,200 there's so much smoke we don't have the 1114 00:40:19,589 --> 00:40:17,200 fire we don't have the craft and i know 1115 00:40:21,349 --> 00:40:19,599 for you you know you and i do i want to 1116 00:40:22,230 --> 00:40:21,359 see it too i can't say i know that we 1117 00:40:24,630 --> 00:40:22,240 have a craft 1118 00:40:25,430 --> 00:40:24,640 i do believe we have we have more than 1119 00:40:27,589 --> 00:40:25,440 materials 1120 00:40:29,190 --> 00:40:27,599 but it's funny to watch you you talk 1121 00:40:30,550 --> 00:40:29,200 about and you've talked you've spoken to 1122 00:40:32,550 --> 00:40:30,560 so many people who have 1123 00:40:34,069 --> 00:40:32,560 shared information you know sources but 1124 00:40:34,470 --> 00:40:34,079 you're still hesitant i see it when you 1125 00:40:39,109 --> 00:40:34,480 say 1126 00:40:40,790 --> 00:40:39,119 retrievals and and 1127 00:40:43,030 --> 00:40:40,800 is that the reason because in history 1128 00:40:44,630 --> 00:40:43,040 yeah i've been on the receiving end of 1129 00:40:46,790 --> 00:40:44,640 government disinformation 1130 00:40:47,910 --> 00:40:46,800 in the past you know i've stumbled 1131 00:40:49,589 --> 00:40:47,920 across 1132 00:40:52,069 --> 00:40:49,599 things that i shouldn't have stumbled 1133 00:40:54,390 --> 00:40:52,079 across i once stumbled across a thing 1134 00:40:57,430 --> 00:40:54,400 that our government was involved in 1135 00:40:59,670 --> 00:40:57,440 where we were disrupting 1136 00:41:00,870 --> 00:40:59,680 people smugglers operating in indonesia 1137 00:41:02,950 --> 00:41:00,880 bringing refugee 1138 00:41:05,030 --> 00:41:02,960 aspirants across the straits from 1139 00:41:07,109 --> 00:41:05,040 indonesia to australia 1140 00:41:09,190 --> 00:41:07,119 our intelligence services were basically 1141 00:41:10,950 --> 00:41:09,200 working with the indonesians to run what 1142 00:41:11,750 --> 00:41:10,960 was essentially quite a dirty little 1143 00:41:14,870 --> 00:41:11,760 operation 1144 00:41:16,790 --> 00:41:14,880 to stop boats from leaving indonesia and 1145 00:41:19,030 --> 00:41:16,800 i suspect that involves the sinking of 1146 00:41:20,390 --> 00:41:19,040 boats on occasion in port not killing 1147 00:41:21,990 --> 00:41:20,400 people at sea but 1148 00:41:23,589 --> 00:41:22,000 i do think that there was this dirty 1149 00:41:25,349 --> 00:41:23,599 operation going on and i kind of 1150 00:41:28,470 --> 00:41:25,359 stumbled across it 1151 00:41:30,470 --> 00:41:28,480 and i think one of the most scary times 1152 00:41:31,990 --> 00:41:30,480 as a journalist was when i realized that 1153 00:41:34,710 --> 00:41:32,000 i was on the receiving end 1154 00:41:36,630 --> 00:41:34,720 of essentially a black disinformation 1155 00:41:37,510 --> 00:41:36,640 operation by people in our intelligence 1156 00:41:40,550 --> 00:41:37,520 services 1157 00:41:42,630 --> 00:41:40,560 who decided to take me out and i was the 1158 00:41:44,630 --> 00:41:42,640 subject of false allegations that i'd 1159 00:41:45,750 --> 00:41:44,640 paid witnesses to give evidence that was 1160 00:41:48,470 --> 00:41:45,760 false and 1161 00:41:48,870 --> 00:41:48,480 you know it was horrible it was a really 1162 00:41:52,309 --> 00:41:48,880 really 1163 00:41:54,230 --> 00:41:52,319 nasty time and i realized wow the state 1164 00:41:56,150 --> 00:41:54,240 wants to stop something coming out 1165 00:41:58,550 --> 00:41:56,160 especially a black operation 1166 00:42:00,550 --> 00:41:58,560 they'll do anything and it was a really 1167 00:42:01,990 --> 00:42:00,560 sobering experience for me and i was the 1168 00:42:05,510 --> 00:42:02,000 father of young children 1169 00:42:07,430 --> 00:42:05,520 and i was scared i was really scared 1170 00:42:08,950 --> 00:42:07,440 and i've spoken to people in the course 1171 00:42:12,470 --> 00:42:08,960 of my research 1172 00:42:16,470 --> 00:42:15,510 have told me that they are on what they 1173 00:42:19,990 --> 00:42:16,480 refer to 1174 00:42:23,750 --> 00:42:20,000 as the program that the scientists 1175 00:42:27,589 --> 00:42:23,760 or people in the military who 1176 00:42:31,670 --> 00:42:27,599 have been involved in compartmentalized 1177 00:42:34,069 --> 00:42:31,680 efforts to reproduce technology 1178 00:42:34,790 --> 00:42:34,079 or to secure technology that they 1179 00:42:37,910 --> 00:42:34,800 believe 1180 00:42:41,190 --> 00:42:37,920 is of non-human origin 1181 00:42:43,109 --> 00:42:41,200 and frankly i believe there's a body of 1182 00:42:44,870 --> 00:42:43,119 evidence to support the fact that the us 1183 00:42:47,589 --> 00:42:44,880 government has been lying 1184 00:42:48,470 --> 00:42:47,599 for probably seven decades since world 1185 00:42:51,910 --> 00:42:48,480 war ii to 1186 00:42:55,190 --> 00:42:51,920 conceal stuff that it has recovered 1187 00:42:57,910 --> 00:42:55,200 but frankly because of the risk of 1188 00:42:59,430 --> 00:42:57,920 disinformation because i've seen before 1189 00:43:02,150 --> 00:42:59,440 lies being told 1190 00:43:03,829 --> 00:43:02,160 to push a military or a national 1191 00:43:06,150 --> 00:43:03,839 security imperative 1192 00:43:07,349 --> 00:43:06,160 i will never believe it absolutely 1193 00:43:10,150 --> 00:43:07,359 certainly until 1194 00:43:10,630 --> 00:43:10,160 i'm literally looking at that tr-3b or 1195 00:43:13,510 --> 00:43:10,640 that 1196 00:43:14,069 --> 00:43:13,520 alien reproduction vehicle sitting in a 1197 00:43:16,630 --> 00:43:14,079 hover 1198 00:43:18,550 --> 00:43:16,640 in a cave somewhere in area 51 with 1199 00:43:19,270 --> 00:43:18,560 glowing luminescent purple lights 1200 00:43:21,750 --> 00:43:19,280 underneath it 1201 00:43:23,349 --> 00:43:21,760 and scientists basically pushing buttons 1202 00:43:26,550 --> 00:43:23,359 to figure out how it works 1203 00:43:29,430 --> 00:43:26,560 because frankly there's always the risk 1204 00:43:31,510 --> 00:43:29,440 that even though i followed a quite a 1205 00:43:33,829 --> 00:43:31,520 clever strategy to try and engage 1206 00:43:36,230 --> 00:43:33,839 people directly to invite them to talk 1207 00:43:37,750 --> 00:43:36,240 to me about what they allegedly knew 1208 00:43:39,270 --> 00:43:37,760 there's always the risk that i'm the 1209 00:43:40,230 --> 00:43:39,280 victim of a concerted government 1210 00:43:42,230 --> 00:43:40,240 disinformation 1211 00:43:43,990 --> 00:43:42,240 program that the americans for example 1212 00:43:46,069 --> 00:43:44,000 are trying to 1213 00:43:47,670 --> 00:43:46,079 leave their rivals with a perception 1214 00:43:49,430 --> 00:43:47,680 that they're more advanced than they 1215 00:43:51,430 --> 00:43:49,440 really are 1216 00:43:53,990 --> 00:43:51,440 and yes my default is i think the 1217 00:43:55,829 --> 00:43:54,000 americans have recovered technology uh 1218 00:43:57,430 --> 00:43:55,839 i don't know if that involves craft 1219 00:43:59,270 --> 00:43:57,440 necessarily but i do believe they've 1220 00:44:00,710 --> 00:43:59,280 recovered technology that they believe 1221 00:44:02,870 --> 00:44:00,720 is not human 1222 00:44:04,710 --> 00:44:02,880 i don't care if people laugh at that i i 1223 00:44:06,829 --> 00:44:04,720 know it to be honest i know it's 1224 00:44:07,990 --> 00:44:06,839 for real i've been told it by too many 1225 00:44:09,829 --> 00:44:08,000 people 1226 00:44:11,349 --> 00:44:09,839 the issue in my mind and i think this is 1227 00:44:13,349 --> 00:44:11,359 where your friend 1228 00:44:15,109 --> 00:44:13,359 and somebody i respect enormously dr 1229 00:44:17,109 --> 00:44:15,119 eric davis comes in 1230 00:44:19,190 --> 00:44:17,119 the guy who's now working for aerospace 1231 00:44:21,750 --> 00:44:19,200 corporation so he's still got 1232 00:44:23,589 --> 00:44:21,760 a top secret sci clearance now he's 1233 00:44:25,349 --> 00:44:23,599 still somebody who's respected and 1234 00:44:27,510 --> 00:44:25,359 is protected and within the national 1235 00:44:30,470 --> 00:44:27,520 security infrastructure 1236 00:44:30,950 --> 00:44:30,480 of america respected as somebody who's 1237 00:44:33,349 --> 00:44:30,960 um 1238 00:44:35,670 --> 00:44:33,359 you know knows what he's doing he has 1239 00:44:38,630 --> 00:44:35,680 gone on the record 1240 00:44:39,910 --> 00:44:38,640 to talk about crashed recovered and 1241 00:44:43,270 --> 00:44:39,920 landed 1242 00:44:45,510 --> 00:44:43,280 ufo technology you know he's basically 1243 00:44:47,030 --> 00:44:45,520 flatly asserted that there are off-world 1244 00:44:50,470 --> 00:44:47,040 craft 1245 00:44:52,309 --> 00:44:50,480 that are held by america 1246 00:44:53,589 --> 00:44:52,319 and i've spoken to people in the 1247 00:44:55,430 --> 00:44:53,599 congress 1248 00:44:57,349 --> 00:44:55,440 who are aware of briefings that were 1249 00:45:01,030 --> 00:44:57,359 given by dr eric davis 1250 00:45:02,870 --> 00:45:01,040 and others who've told the congress that 1251 00:45:04,550 --> 00:45:02,880 the united states is in possession of 1252 00:45:08,470 --> 00:45:04,560 non-terrestrial technology 1253 00:45:10,470 --> 00:45:08,480 off-world vehicles that's mind-blowing 1254 00:45:11,990 --> 00:45:10,480 and this is the thing that i find 1255 00:45:14,309 --> 00:45:12,000 interesting is i mean i've had 1256 00:45:16,790 --> 00:45:14,319 conversations with journalists from 1257 00:45:18,710 --> 00:45:16,800 washington dc who run me confidentially 1258 00:45:20,230 --> 00:45:18,720 i also had a conversation a couple of 1259 00:45:21,910 --> 00:45:20,240 days ago with a british journalist who 1260 00:45:24,550 --> 00:45:21,920 rang me who 1261 00:45:25,510 --> 00:45:24,560 was also interestingly chasing this 1262 00:45:27,430 --> 00:45:25,520 issue 1263 00:45:29,990 --> 00:45:27,440 and there's there's the beginning of an 1264 00:45:31,430 --> 00:45:30,000 engagement with this area where 1265 00:45:33,190 --> 00:45:31,440 journalists are sort of nervously 1266 00:45:34,390 --> 00:45:33,200 putting their toes in the water going 1267 00:45:36,309 --> 00:45:34,400 gosh 1268 00:45:37,829 --> 00:45:36,319 this is this is really interesting you 1269 00:45:38,950 --> 00:45:37,839 know as ross has pointed out because a 1270 00:45:40,150 --> 00:45:38,960 couple of them have read my book and 1271 00:45:41,910 --> 00:45:40,160 they've gone gee 1272 00:45:43,589 --> 00:45:41,920 when you actually look at the the 1273 00:45:45,430 --> 00:45:43,599 evidence ross has got a point you know 1274 00:45:46,950 --> 00:45:45,440 there is a circumstantial case to show 1275 00:45:48,470 --> 00:45:46,960 that there really potentially is 1276 00:45:51,190 --> 00:45:48,480 something to this 1277 00:45:53,349 --> 00:45:51,200 and so what's stopping them though 1278 00:45:54,710 --> 00:45:53,359 what's still hindering them is that fear 1279 00:45:56,710 --> 00:45:54,720 that they're going to be 1280 00:45:58,069 --> 00:45:56,720 bollocked or ridiculed for revealing 1281 00:46:00,309 --> 00:45:58,079 what they know 1282 00:46:02,150 --> 00:46:00,319 i don't think are men in back black 1283 00:46:03,910 --> 00:46:02,160 sitting in their editor's office saying 1284 00:46:05,190 --> 00:46:03,920 you shall not run this story 1285 00:46:07,190 --> 00:46:05,200 i still think that's quite possible 1286 00:46:08,069 --> 00:46:07,200 though but i think also one of the 1287 00:46:10,390 --> 00:46:08,079 problems that 1288 00:46:11,829 --> 00:46:10,400 that stops the media from engaging this 1289 00:46:15,990 --> 00:46:11,839 and taking it seriously 1290 00:46:18,870 --> 00:46:16,000 is it's a huge problem in mass media 1291 00:46:20,069 --> 00:46:18,880 mass media tends to think in a pack 1292 00:46:23,589 --> 00:46:20,079 witness what happened 1293 00:46:25,670 --> 00:46:23,599 with the failure to question 1294 00:46:27,589 --> 00:46:25,680 about weapons of mass destruction going 1295 00:46:30,470 --> 00:46:27,599 into the iraq war 1296 00:46:32,150 --> 00:46:30,480 you know we all in the media glibly 1297 00:46:33,990 --> 00:46:32,160 accepted the assurances that we were 1298 00:46:36,150 --> 00:46:34,000 given by general colin powell 1299 00:46:37,750 --> 00:46:36,160 and so did he for that matter he was 1300 00:46:41,030 --> 00:46:37,760 given them by the cia and 1301 00:46:43,349 --> 00:46:41,040 apparently flatly lied to um you know 1302 00:46:46,390 --> 00:46:43,359 our intelligence services essentially 1303 00:46:48,630 --> 00:46:46,400 or your and our intelligence services 1304 00:46:51,190 --> 00:46:48,640 probably in a kind of a mass group thing 1305 00:46:54,390 --> 00:46:51,200 colluded in self-deception 1306 00:46:57,829 --> 00:46:54,400 and if that can happen 1307 00:47:00,870 --> 00:46:57,839 they're also capable i think of 1308 00:47:04,309 --> 00:47:00,880 deceiving the media about 1309 00:47:07,109 --> 00:47:04,319 a covert ufo crash retrieval program 1310 00:47:08,550 --> 00:47:07,119 and i i think one of the things that the 1311 00:47:10,069 --> 00:47:08,560 media need to start doing is 1312 00:47:11,589 --> 00:47:10,079 looking at the breadcrumbs looking at 1313 00:47:13,750 --> 00:47:11,599 the trail and actually saying 1314 00:47:15,270 --> 00:47:13,760 look there's something more to this you 1315 00:47:18,230 --> 00:47:15,280 know cooltart's got a point 1316 00:47:18,630 --> 00:47:18,240 joe murgy has got a point there really 1317 00:47:20,630 --> 00:47:18,640 is 1318 00:47:22,309 --> 00:47:20,640 a body of circumstantial evidence to 1319 00:47:24,390 --> 00:47:22,319 show that historically 1320 00:47:26,549 --> 00:47:24,400 a lot of creditable people with 1321 00:47:27,670 --> 00:47:26,559 reputations have come out and basically 1322 00:47:29,190 --> 00:47:27,680 said 1323 00:47:30,790 --> 00:47:29,200 there's something to this crash 1324 00:47:32,870 --> 00:47:30,800 retrieval issue and 1325 00:47:35,030 --> 00:47:32,880 instead of giggling and sort of 1326 00:47:37,829 --> 00:47:35,040 ridiculing and treating with taboo and 1327 00:47:39,510 --> 00:47:37,839 stigma this issue every time it's raised 1328 00:47:41,270 --> 00:47:39,520 i think it's time people seriously 1329 00:47:42,470 --> 00:47:41,280 started asking questions at white house 1330 00:47:43,829 --> 00:47:42,480 press conferences 1331 00:47:45,750 --> 00:47:43,839 you know mr president what are you going 1332 00:47:47,750 --> 00:47:45,760 to be doing about the uap report 1333 00:47:50,150 --> 00:47:47,760 mr president there are allegations on 1334 00:47:52,549 --> 00:47:50,160 the public record from public officials 1335 00:47:53,910 --> 00:47:52,559 who have said that the us has recovered 1336 00:47:56,630 --> 00:47:53,920 non-human technology 1337 00:47:57,670 --> 00:47:56,640 what do you say to that do you deny it 1338 00:47:59,430 --> 00:47:57,680 yeah he's been asked 1339 00:48:01,190 --> 00:47:59,440 he's only been asked once and he he 1340 00:48:02,630 --> 00:48:01,200 laughed and walked away and he said ask 1341 00:48:04,069 --> 00:48:02,640 obama so it's like that was 1342 00:48:06,309 --> 00:48:04,079 disappointing and 1343 00:48:08,150 --> 00:48:06,319 i'm hoping your book opens the door for 1344 00:48:10,230 --> 00:48:08,160 more mainstream journalists national 1345 00:48:11,990 --> 00:48:10,240 level journalists and it it has 1346 00:48:13,589 --> 00:48:12,000 but it's died down again which we always 1347 00:48:14,470 --> 00:48:13,599 see we see the ebb and flow and right 1348 00:48:20,470 --> 00:48:14,480 now it's 1349 00:48:21,910 --> 00:48:20,480 it's at a lull right now um but your 1350 00:48:23,589 --> 00:48:21,920 book just came out 1351 00:48:25,910 --> 00:48:23,599 look i know i actually know a lot's 1352 00:48:27,109 --> 00:48:25,920 going on um i think one of the things 1353 00:48:28,470 --> 00:48:27,119 gonna that's gonna be interesting to 1354 00:48:30,950 --> 00:48:28,480 watch is we've got this 1355 00:48:32,390 --> 00:48:30,960 i think there is an indication that 1356 00:48:35,990 --> 00:48:32,400 there's going to be a further 1357 00:48:38,069 --> 00:48:36,000 report from the uap task force but 1358 00:48:39,910 --> 00:48:38,079 i mean for anybody listening to this the 1359 00:48:42,309 --> 00:48:39,920 the thing i'm really worried about 1360 00:48:43,109 --> 00:48:42,319 is we've seen this issue shut down 1361 00:48:45,030 --> 00:48:43,119 before 1362 00:48:46,950 --> 00:48:45,040 i mean the us air force very 1363 00:48:48,790 --> 00:48:46,960 successfully shut down project blue book 1364 00:48:51,510 --> 00:48:48,800 in the late 1960s 1365 00:48:53,270 --> 00:48:51,520 um you know the the public has been very 1366 00:48:56,630 --> 00:48:53,280 very effectively snowed for 1367 00:48:57,910 --> 00:48:56,640 much of the past 70 years um it could 1368 00:49:00,390 --> 00:48:57,920 happen again 1369 00:49:02,870 --> 00:49:00,400 uh you know i don't think that this is 1370 00:49:04,710 --> 00:49:02,880 yet engaging in the mainstream in a way 1371 00:49:06,309 --> 00:49:04,720 that means that there's momentum in the 1372 00:49:08,630 --> 00:49:06,319 congress to actually get 1373 00:49:10,309 --> 00:49:08,640 public hearings i'm very skeptical about 1374 00:49:12,230 --> 00:49:10,319 that i know i i am too 1375 00:49:14,069 --> 00:49:12,240 i know louis lozando and chris mellon 1376 00:49:16,950 --> 00:49:14,079 are pushing and pushing but 1377 00:49:18,630 --> 00:49:16,960 um from my reading of the different 1378 00:49:20,870 --> 00:49:18,640 senators and congressmen who 1379 00:49:21,829 --> 00:49:20,880 basically made public comments about 1380 00:49:24,150 --> 00:49:21,839 this 1381 00:49:25,990 --> 00:49:24,160 my attempt to kind of fuel pulse of 1382 00:49:28,150 --> 00:49:26,000 other people in that place 1383 00:49:30,470 --> 00:49:28,160 um i don't get the impression that this 1384 00:49:33,270 --> 00:49:30,480 is a political imperative 1385 00:49:36,390 --> 00:49:33,280 especially not at a time of grave 1386 00:49:39,670 --> 00:49:36,400 sensitivities with china 1387 00:49:41,270 --> 00:49:39,680 because you know essentially you know 1388 00:49:42,710 --> 00:49:41,280 we are slowly drifting into a 1389 00:49:45,190 --> 00:49:42,720 confrontation with china 1390 00:49:47,030 --> 00:49:45,200 and i can understand why the military 1391 00:49:48,870 --> 00:49:47,040 defence establishment might want to keep 1392 00:49:50,950 --> 00:49:48,880 secret technologies that it's developing 1393 00:49:52,710 --> 00:49:50,960 in the black 1394 00:49:54,309 --> 00:49:52,720 and you know i know a lot of people are 1395 00:49:55,750 --> 00:49:54,319 going to hate me for this but when i'm i 1396 00:49:57,910 --> 00:49:55,760 was reading your book 1397 00:49:59,030 --> 00:49:57,920 i'm reading about and let's talk about 1398 00:50:01,270 --> 00:49:59,040 go back a little bit 1399 00:50:02,950 --> 00:50:01,280 rosco hillen cotter because as i'm 1400 00:50:05,910 --> 00:50:02,960 reading about him 1401 00:50:06,790 --> 00:50:05,920 and nightcap i wrote down in big letters 1402 00:50:10,069 --> 00:50:06,800 i'm like 1403 00:50:11,190 --> 00:50:10,079 helen cutter is elizondo i mean the 1404 00:50:13,510 --> 00:50:11,200 similarities 1405 00:50:15,030 --> 00:50:13,520 it's it's and i heard you talk about it 1406 00:50:16,790 --> 00:50:15,040 yesterday and i was like 1407 00:50:18,309 --> 00:50:16,800 i can't believe you know and how did i 1408 00:50:19,030 --> 00:50:18,319 miss that the similarities and other 1409 00:50:20,470 --> 00:50:19,040 people's hat 1410 00:50:22,230 --> 00:50:20,480 other people have mentioned it so i'm 1411 00:50:23,510 --> 00:50:22,240 not the first person so that does 1412 00:50:25,349 --> 00:50:23,520 concern me 1413 00:50:26,790 --> 00:50:25,359 that's what amazes me is when i actually 1414 00:50:29,349 --> 00:50:26,800 went through your history 1415 00:50:30,390 --> 00:50:29,359 your defense archives you know it's 1416 00:50:32,230 --> 00:50:30,400 amazing to me 1417 00:50:34,549 --> 00:50:32,240 that the history shows that there were 1418 00:50:38,309 --> 00:50:34,559 very very senior officials 1419 00:50:40,549 --> 00:50:38,319

00:50:53,990 --> 00:50:52,240 and they were determined to do something 1426 00:50:57,109 --> 00:50:54,000 about it and this is a guy who was 1427 00:50:59,670 --> 00:50:57,119 the founding director of your cia 1428 00:51:00,549 --> 00:50:59,680 you know he created your overseas spy 1429 00:51:02,069 --> 00:51:00,559 service 1430 00:51:04,390 --> 00:51:02,079 um this is a guy who was one of the 1431 00:51:05,030 --> 00:51:04,400 heroes of pearl harbor and went on to 1432 00:51:07,109 --> 00:51:05,040 become a 1433 00:51:08,069 --> 00:51:07,119 i think he was the captain of uss 1434 00:51:11,349

happens to have been a huge proponent 1438 00:51:22,150 --> 00:51:19,920 of expose of what he believes was some 1439 00:51:23,589 --> 00:51:22,160 kind of ufo cover-up going on inside the 1440

00:52:02,870 --> 00:52:00,160 senior staffer on the senate 1460 00:52:05,510 --> 00:52:02,880 intelligence committee back in the 1970s 1461 00:52:06,150 --> 00:52:05,520 making a huge effort to try and crack 1462 00:52:08,470 --> 00:52:06,160 what he 1463 00:52:10,549 --> 00:52:08,480 clearly believed was a to use my friend 1464 00:52:12,230 --> 00:52:10,559 steve bassett's term a truth embargo 1465 00:52:15,030 --> 00:52:12,240 inside the 1466 00:52:16,630 --> 00:52:15,040 the u.s government that was blocking the 1467 00:52:18,230 --> 00:52:16,640 public from knowing what was really 1468 00:52:21,510 --> 00:52:18,240 going on and 1469 00:52:23,750 --> 00:52:21,520 uh he clearly has been 1470 00:52:25,109 --> 00:52:23,760 shut down i mean he now has a statement 1471 00:52:28,549 --> 00:52:25,119 on his 1472 00:52:31,670 --> 00:52:28,559 website where he basically says that uh 1473 00:52:33,349 --> 00:52:31,680 he's got nothing more to add and 1474 00:52:37,030 --> 00:52:33,359 feels nothing could be advanced by 1475 00:52:40,710 --> 00:52:37,040 taking this any further inside the uh 1476 00:52:42,710 --> 00:52:40,720 you know inside the congress so 1477 00:52:44,710 --> 00:52:42,720 what's going on you know why is it that 1478 00:52:46,069 --> 00:52:44,720 people like that periodically hold their 1479 00:52:47,829 --> 00:52:46,079 heads up and basically 1480 00:52:49,349 --> 00:52:47,839 make statements that they think that 1481 00:52:51,750 --> 00:52:49,359 people discover is 1482 00:52:52,630 --> 00:52:51,760 hiding stuff and then they slowly 1483 00:52:54,390 --> 00:52:52,640 disappear 1484 00:52:55,750 --> 00:52:54,400 and i think that could happen again i 1485 00:52:58,150 --> 00:52:55,760 can i can tell you 1486 00:52:58,790 --> 00:52:58,160 seeing the pressure that lou elizondo 1487 00:53:02,790 --> 00:52:58,800 was 1488 00:53:05,510 --> 00:53:02,800 is under when i visited in may 1489 00:53:06,870 --> 00:53:05,520 you know especially when the guy is 1490 00:53:08,950 --> 00:53:06,880 copying it from 1491 00:53:10,630 --> 00:53:08,960 info twitter as much as he's copying it 1492 00:53:13,910 --> 00:53:10,640 from the defense 1493 00:53:14,950 --> 00:53:13,920 um you know black black elements of 1494 00:53:18,069 --> 00:53:14,960 intercourse 1495 00:53:22,470 --> 00:53:18,079 you know this is a guy who's risked 1496 00:53:25,750 --> 00:53:22,480 a lot he's sacrificed a lot to go public 1497 00:53:27,589 --> 00:53:25,760 and to tell the american public that he 1498 00:53:27,990 --> 00:53:27,599 believes the american government he's 1499 00:53:29,910 --> 00:53:28,000 hiding 1500 00:53:31,589 --> 00:53:29,920 stuff and that there needs to be 1501 00:53:34,710 --> 00:53:31,599 accountability and 1502 00:53:36,390 --> 00:53:34,720 transparency and you know for a lot of 1503 00:53:38,230 --> 00:53:36,400 his efforts he's copying a bollocking 1504 00:53:40,710 --> 00:53:38,240 for it as we say in australia you know 1505 00:53:41,589 --> 00:53:40,720 he's just it's making his life very 1506 00:53:43,430 --> 00:53:41,599 miserable 1507 00:53:45,430 --> 00:53:43,440 i can imagine what he would quite like 1508 00:53:47,910 --> 00:53:45,440 to do is retire to his farm 1509 00:53:49,829 --> 00:53:47,920 in the midwest there and put his feet up 1510 00:53:51,270 --> 00:53:49,839 and work on his motorbikes and just 1511 00:53:54,790 --> 00:53:51,280 enjoy life a bit 1512 00:53:55,270 --> 00:53:54,800 and the the thing is it's a thankless 1513 00:53:57,109 --> 00:53:55,280 job 1514 00:53:59,750 --> 00:53:57,119 if you're a public official and you go 1515 00:54:03,109 --> 00:53:59,760 against the grain and basically speak up 1516 00:54:04,630 --> 00:54:03,119 and even eric davis um i noticed that 1517 00:54:07,270 --> 00:54:04,640 all of the interviews and all of the 1518 00:54:10,549 --> 00:54:07,280 commentary that he'd given on this issue 1519 00:54:13,510 --> 00:54:10,559 occurred before he went back into the 1520 00:54:14,750 --> 00:54:13,520 defense world presumably under a 1521 00:54:17,349 --> 00:54:14,760 compartmental and 1522 00:54:18,710 --> 00:54:17,359 compartmentalized intelligence straight 1523 00:54:20,230 --> 00:54:18,720 which essentially stops him from 1524 00:54:22,630 --> 00:54:20,240 speaking publicly 1525 00:54:24,870 --> 00:54:22,640 um aerospace corporation where he's 1526 00:54:26,390 --> 00:54:24,880 working is a federally funded research 1527 00:54:29,430 --> 00:54:26,400 organization 1528 00:54:31,990 --> 00:54:29,440 uh and it's amazing to me 1529 00:54:33,829 --> 00:54:32,000 that somebody like eric a man of great 1530 00:54:36,549 --> 00:54:33,839 reputation 1531 00:54:37,349 --> 00:54:36,559 undoubted ability undoubted scientific 1532 00:54:39,910 --> 00:54:37,359 expertise 1533 00:54:40,630 --> 00:54:39,920 can make the assertion that he believes 1534 00:54:43,109 --> 00:54:40,640 the us 1535 00:54:45,190 --> 00:54:43,119 has recovered alien craft that's 1536 00:54:48,870 --> 00:54:45,200 fundamentally what he's saying 1537 00:54:52,069 --> 00:54:48,880 and it goes out there 1538 00:54:54,710 --> 00:54:52,079 and it disappears that's it you know 1539 00:54:55,990 --> 00:54:54,720 and and i i i wait to see i mean one of 1540 00:54:57,670 --> 00:54:56,000 the things a lot of people have said is 1541 00:55:01,349 --> 00:54:57,680 how good it is that new york times 1542 00:55:01,670 --> 00:55:01,359 has run what it has run and it is good 1543 00:55:05,030 --> 00:55:01,680 but 1544 00:55:07,430 --> 00:55:05,040 i am i'm also aware as you are of 1545 00:55:08,549 --> 00:55:07,440 that leslie kane and ralph blumenthal 1546 00:55:10,549 --> 00:55:08,559 had talked about 1547 00:55:11,750 --> 00:55:10,559 particularly in the social media forums 1548 00:55:14,870 --> 00:55:11,760 that they've engaged with 1549 00:55:15,349 --> 00:55:14,880 um off the main pages of the newspaper 1550 00:55:17,270 --> 00:55:15,359 and 1551 00:55:19,430 --> 00:55:17,280 you know ralph blumenthal particularly 1552 00:55:20,870 --> 00:55:19,440 is hinted very strongly that he thinks 1553 00:55:23,990 --> 00:55:20,880 that the united states 1554 00:55:26,150 --> 00:55:24,000 has recovered craft technology 1555 00:55:29,430 --> 00:55:26,160 this this is an imminent reporter for 1556 00:55:32,309 --> 00:55:29,440 the new york times newspaper 1557 00:55:35,109 --> 00:55:32,319 senior officials in your military 1558 00:55:39,030 --> 00:55:35,119 industrial scientific establishment 1559 00:55:41,349 --> 00:55:39,040 uh louis lozando chris mellon eric davis 1560 00:55:43,430 --> 00:55:41,359 and others that i've spoken to have 1561 00:55:45,750 --> 00:55:43,440 indicated there's something to this even 1562 00:55:47,349 --> 00:55:45,760 president obama former president obama 1563 00:55:48,470 --> 00:55:47,359 when he was doing an interview just very 1564 00:55:51,510 --> 00:55:48,480 recently 1565 00:55:53,990 --> 00:55:51,520 he dropped a huge hint that this is 1566 00:55:56,390 --> 00:55:54,000 worthy of intense investigation 1567 00:55:57,030 --> 00:55:56,400 and even trump your former president 1568 00:56:00,230 --> 00:55:57,040 until 1569 00:56:02,549 --> 00:56:00,240 uh you know earlier this year he he did 1570 00:56:03,030 --> 00:56:02,559 that interview with his son don jr where 1571 00:56:15,270 --> 00:56:03,040 he 1572 00:56:18,309 --> 00:56:17,190 i've spoken to people in your government 1573 00:56:20,390 --> 00:56:18,319 who who 1574 00:56:21,750 --> 00:56:20,400 titted nervously about trump because 1575 00:56:23,670 --> 00:56:21,760 they were really worried he was going to 1576 00:56:25,750 --> 00:56:23,680 say stuff that he shouldn't have 1577 00:56:28,789 --> 00:56:25,760 and ultimately at the bottom of all of 1578 00:56:31,030 --> 00:56:28,799 this joe i have this suspicion 1579 00:56:31,829 --> 00:56:31,040 i like to think the best of the people 1580 00:56:35,589 --> 00:56:31,839 that run 1581 00:56:37,829 --> 00:56:35,599 uh defence intelligence establishment 1582 00:56:39,750 --> 00:56:37,839 i don't think they're evil people uh 1583 00:56:42,069 --> 00:56:39,760 i've been privileged when i did the 1584 00:56:44,630 --> 00:56:42,079 communications surveillance story on 1585 00:56:45,270 --> 00:56:44,640 the echelon communication system i was 1586 00:56:48,150 --> 00:56:45,280 privileged 1587 00:56:49,109 --> 00:56:48,160 to engage with your nsa and also with 1588 00:56:50,950 --> 00:56:49,119 our 1589 00:56:52,789 --> 00:56:50,960 australian signals directorate in the 1590 00:56:55,270 --> 00:56:52,799 defence signals directorate 1591 00:56:57,349 --> 00:56:55,280 and rather than block me off they engage 1592 00:56:58,390 --> 00:56:57,359 with me as a serious and sex journalist 1593 00:57:00,390 --> 00:56:58,400 and 1594 00:57:01,750 --> 00:57:00,400 you know i was concerned for example 1595 00:57:03,750 --> 00:57:01,760 that the communication 1596 00:57:05,990 --> 00:57:03,760 surveillance system i'd been fed a lion 1597 00:57:07,829 --> 00:57:06,000 that america might be misusing this 1598 00:57:09,990 --> 00:57:07,839 tapping technology for 1599 00:57:11,990 --> 00:57:10,000 economic advantage that australia might 1600 00:57:14,470 --> 00:57:12,000 be losing contracts because america 1601 00:57:16,710 --> 00:57:14,480 was essentially using this awesome spy 1602 00:57:18,549 --> 00:57:16,720 system to gain an edge in giving 1603 00:57:19,750 --> 00:57:18,559 companies an advantage against 1604 00:57:21,910 --> 00:57:19,760 australian company 1605 00:57:23,910 --> 00:57:21,920 and so i was questioning as a journalist 1606 00:57:25,430 --> 00:57:23,920 you know why are we part of this five 1607 00:57:28,870 --> 00:57:25,440 eyes alliance 1608 00:57:31,670 --> 00:57:28,880 and so i um 1609 00:57:32,630 --> 00:57:31,680 i was shown or given a briefing about 1610 00:57:35,349 --> 00:57:32,640 the tasking 1611 00:57:37,829 --> 00:57:35,359 for the geraldton satellite interception 1612 00:57:40,069 --> 00:57:37,839 that the yukuta echelon system 1613 00:57:41,430 --> 00:57:40,079 uh operated over the indian ocean that 1614 00:57:43,349 --> 00:57:41,440 was tapping essentially into north 1615 00:57:45,670 --> 00:57:43,359 korean communications 1616 00:57:47,349 --> 00:57:45,680 and i could see that that what we were 1617 00:57:49,349 --> 00:57:47,359 doing was fundamentally 1618 00:57:51,510 --> 00:57:49,359 good stuff you know we were essentially 1619 00:57:53,829 --> 00:57:51,520 monitoring and i'd known this already 1620 00:57:55,430 --> 00:57:53,839 i've spoken to my own sources in the 1621 00:57:57,190 --> 00:57:55,440 intelligence services who'd given me 1622 00:57:59,829 --> 00:57:57,200 their own take on this 1623 00:58:02,069 --> 00:57:59,839 and i like to think in a similar way 1624 00:58:04,150 --> 00:58:02,079 that the reasons why 1625 00:58:05,430 --> 00:58:04,160 there is a cover-up and there is there 1626 00:58:07,349 --> 00:58:05,440 is a cover-up 1627 00:58:09,030 --> 00:58:07,359 i like to think that there's some reason 1628 00:58:11,829 --> 00:58:09,040 that this is being kept secret 1629 00:58:12,630 --> 00:58:11,839 it's more than just embarrassment 1630 00:58:15,990 --> 00:58:12,640 because 1631 00:58:19,270 --> 00:58:16,000 the one thing that worries me 1632 00:58:21,670 --> 00:58:19,280 is that it was kept secret for 1633 00:58:22,789 --> 00:58:21,680 a whole series of slightly lame reasons 1634 00:58:24,549 --> 00:58:22,799 through the cold war 1635 00:58:25,829 --> 00:58:24,559 that you know we didn't want to alarm 1636 00:58:28,710 --> 00:58:25,839 the public 1637 00:58:29,910 --> 00:58:28,720 we uh we had religious objections to 1638 00:58:31,430 --> 00:58:29,920 revealing the existence of 1639 00:58:34,630 --> 00:58:31,440 extraterrestrials if that's 1640 00:58:36,630 --> 00:58:34,640 the case um you know that essentially we 1641 00:58:38,789 --> 00:58:36,640 didn't want to confuse 1642 00:58:40,470 --> 00:58:38,799 early warning systems by having too many 1643 00:58:41,910 --> 00:58:40,480 public sightings on a normal subject 1644 00:58:45,589 --> 00:58:41,920 that we knew were 1645 00:58:47,829 --> 00:58:45,599 others um you know is it is it plausible 1646 00:58:50,630 --> 00:58:47,839 that that benign explanation is the more 1647 00:58:52,470 --> 00:58:50,640 plausible explanation or is it that 1648 00:58:54,470 --> 00:58:52,480 the military just simply doesn't like 1649 00:58:56,630 --> 00:58:54,480 admitting that there is a technology 1650 00:58:57,109 --> 00:58:56,640 that is far more advanced than theirs 1651 00:59:01,510 --> 00:58:57,119 that 1652 00:59:04,870 --> 00:59:01,520 is operating on our planet or 1653 00:59:08,309 --> 00:59:04,880 is it that we are developing technology 1654 00:59:10,309 --> 00:59:08,319 in the black which we haven't cracked 1655 00:59:11,670 --> 00:59:10,319 yet but we're very very close to 1656 00:59:13,589 --> 00:59:11,680 cracking 1657 00:59:15,589 --> 00:59:13,599 and we don't want to give our 1658 00:59:18,630 --> 00:59:15,599 adversaries in those authoritarian 1659 00:59:20,150 --> 00:59:18,640 regimes such as russia such as china 1660 00:59:22,470 --> 00:59:20,160 we don't want to give them a strategic 1661 00:59:25,109 --> 00:59:22,480 advantage by being forced to reveal 1662 00:59:27,349 --> 00:59:25,119 what we do have or what you the american 1663 00:59:30,230 --> 00:59:27,359 government do have 1664 00:59:30,549 --> 00:59:30,240 i don't know which one of those to think 1665 00:59:33,430 --> 00:59:30,559 but 1666 00:59:35,349 --> 00:59:33,440 i like to think the best possible 1667 00:59:36,630 --> 00:59:35,359 interpretation because i don't think 1668 00:59:38,870 --> 00:59:36,640 these are bad people 1669 00:59:40,630 --> 00:59:38,880 yeah you get some rotten generals and 1670 00:59:41,990 --> 00:59:40,640 rotten admirals and rotten air force 1671 00:59:43,750 --> 00:59:42,000 officers 1672 00:59:45,589 --> 00:59:43,760 and yes there are people i suspect in 1673 00:59:47,190 --> 00:59:45,599 the air force who are just kind of 1674 00:59:48,950 --> 00:59:47,200 dampened the whole thing down and would 1675 00:59:50,390 --> 00:59:48,960 rather it just all went away and 1676 00:59:52,870 --> 00:59:50,400 continue doing what they've been doing 1677 00:59:54,870 --> 00:59:52,880 for the last 50 to 70 years 1678 00:59:57,430 --> 00:59:54,880 but i do think and the evidence is borne 1679 00:59:58,829 --> 00:59:57,440 out by the wikileaks emails from the dnc 1680 01:00:02,390 --> 00:59:58,839 database 1681 01:00:04,630 --> 01:00:02,400 the emails that show the links between 1682 01:00:06,870 --> 01:00:04,640 tom delong the punk rock star 1683 01:00:07,990 --> 01:00:06,880 a couple of generals a guy from lockheed 1684 01:00:09,589 --> 01:00:08,000 martin scout works 1685 01:00:11,190 --> 01:00:09,599 and john podesta hillary clinton's 1686 01:00:13,190 --> 01:00:11,200 campaign manager 1687 01:00:15,190 --> 01:00:13,200 i do think the evidence shows that there 1688 01:00:17,109 --> 01:00:15,200 was some in the military who were 1689 01:00:19,270 --> 01:00:17,119 prepared to engage to disclose 1690 01:00:20,789 --> 01:00:19,280 disclosure with hillary clinton 1691 01:00:23,430 --> 01:00:20,799 as a hillary clinton disclosure 1692 01:00:24,710 --> 01:00:23,440 presidency and that's fascinating to me 1693 01:00:26,150 --> 01:00:24,720 you know the fact that there are people 1694 01:00:29,349 --> 01:00:26,160 in our military who are prepared to 1695 01:00:31,030 --> 01:00:29,359 consider transparency and accountability 1696 01:00:32,549 --> 01:00:31,040 what i don't understand is why it's 1697 01:00:35,829 --> 01:00:32,559 still kept secret 1698 01:00:37,430 --> 01:00:35,839 and you know normally a journal like me 1699 01:00:38,870 --> 01:00:37,440 operating at the levels that i've been 1700 01:00:41,270 --> 01:00:38,880 operating at 1701 01:00:43,430 --> 01:00:41,280 i've engaged with some very very senior 1702 01:00:45,190 --> 01:00:43,440 people in your government 1703 01:00:47,030 --> 01:00:45,200 and normally i would have been taken 1704 01:00:49,750 --> 01:00:47,040 aside at some stage and told 1705 01:00:51,910 --> 01:00:49,760 if there was a national security concern 1706 01:00:54,710 --> 01:00:51,920 i would have been told look ross 1707 01:00:58,789 --> 01:00:54,720 the reason we can't reveal this is 1708 01:01:02,789 --> 01:01:01,589 and that hasn't happened and so 1709 01:01:05,510 --> 01:01:02,799 ultimately 1710 01:01:06,549 --> 01:01:05,520 i am led to the view that this is just a 1711 01:01:09,349 --> 01:01:06,559 big embarrassment 1712 01:01:10,950 --> 01:01:09,359 for our military your military uh that 1713 01:01:11,589 --> 01:01:10,960 essentially this has been kept secret 1714 01:01:14,630 --> 01:01:11,599 for far 1715 01:01:16,390 --> 01:01:14,640 too long uh the reasons why they've kept 1716 01:01:17,829 --> 01:01:16,400 it secret are now unsustainable and 1717 01:01:20,150 --> 01:01:17,839 implausible 1718 01:01:21,270 --> 01:01:20,160 and it's time it was brought out and who 1719 01:01:23,190 --> 01:01:21,280 gives a toss if 1720 01:01:24,870 --> 01:01:23,200 a few generals and air force officers 1721 01:01:25,750 --> 01:01:24,880 along the way might be court-martialed 1722 01:01:30,390 --> 01:01:25,760 and 1723 01:01:32,950 --> 01:01:30,400 presidents 1724 01:01:34,069 --> 01:01:32,960 if that's the case what if you were 1725 01:01:36,470 --> 01:01:34,079 pulled aside because i know you've 1726 01:01:38,950 --> 01:01:36,480 spoken about this before and they said 1727 01:01:39,750 --> 01:01:38,960 ross this is the reason it's being kept 1728 01:01:41,670 --> 01:01:39,760 secret 1729 01:01:43,109 --> 01:01:41,680 we need you to not report this and they 1730 01:01:45,349 --> 01:01:43,119 show you something and it's just so 1731 01:01:47,910 --> 01:01:45,359 troubling it's it's something that's 1732 01:01:49,510 --> 01:01:47,920 the majority of human beings would not 1733 01:01:50,069 --> 01:01:49,520 be able to handle would you keep that if 1734 01:01:51,910 --> 01:01:50,079 they said 1735 01:01:53,910 --> 01:01:51,920 here you go but we would wish that you 1736 01:01:54,710 --> 01:01:53,920 do not release this because it could 1737 01:01:57,029 --> 01:01:54,720 cause 1738 01:01:58,390 --> 01:01:57,039 havoc on the globe would you keep it to 1739 01:01:59,670 --> 01:01:58,400 yourself or would you not report that 1740 01:02:01,910 --> 01:01:59,680 would that would you consider that 1741 01:02:03,349 --> 01:02:01,920 enough of a national security issue 1742 01:02:05,109 --> 01:02:03,359 i think just because people might get 1743 01:02:05,990 --> 01:02:05,119 upset by the revelation isn't a reason 1744 01:02:07,510 --> 01:02:06,000 to keep it secret 1745 01:02:09,349 --> 01:02:07,520 i think i'd need some very strong 1746 01:02:10,630 --> 01:02:09,359 evidence to explain to me why it should 1747 01:02:12,870 --> 01:02:10,640 be kept secret 1748 01:02:14,309 --> 01:02:12,880 i mean i look uh i'll give you an 1749 01:02:17,349 --> 01:02:14,319 example joe i mean i've 1750 01:02:19,109 --> 01:02:17,359 uh i'm i've stumbled i worked as a 1751 01:02:21,910 --> 01:02:19,119 foreign correspondent for a while and i 1752 01:02:23,270 --> 01:02:21,920 i knew the names of the cia station 1753 01:02:24,870 --> 01:02:23,280 agents that were operating in a 1754 01:02:28,710 --> 01:02:24,880 particular country 1755 01:02:29,029 --> 01:02:28,720 um i could have i suppose compromised 1756 01:02:30,870 --> 01:02:29,039 them 1757 01:02:32,789 --> 01:02:30,880 and the names of australian and new 1758 01:02:35,430 --> 01:02:32,799 zealand intelligence officers 1759 01:02:37,510 --> 01:02:35,440 that were operating in what i knew was 1760 01:02:39,829 --> 01:02:37,520 an operation that was operating for both 1761 01:02:42,470 --> 01:02:39,839 of our countries mutual interest 1762 01:02:44,630 --> 01:02:42,480 but i chose not to uh because i'm a 1763 01:02:47,670 --> 01:02:44,640 patriotic person i think that 1764 01:02:50,549 --> 01:02:47,680 you know we are engaged as a country as 1765 01:02:53,430 --> 01:02:50,559 a as an alliance 1766 01:02:54,150 --> 01:02:53,440 in a much more serious and sober clash 1767 01:02:56,710 --> 01:02:54,160 with 1768 01:02:58,470 --> 01:02:56,720 authoritarian regimes and downright evil 1769 01:03:00,230 --> 01:02:58,480 terrorist regimes than 1770 01:03:01,510 --> 01:03:00,240 i think publicly many of our governments 1771 01:03:03,589 --> 01:03:01,520 care to admit 1772 01:03:05,349 --> 01:03:03,599 and yes there is a need for national 1773 01:03:07,750 --> 01:03:05,359 security restraints on what 1774 01:03:09,510 --> 01:03:07,760 is published we don't want to compromise 1775 01:03:11,270 --> 01:03:09,520 the names of intelligence officials i 1776 01:03:15,109 --> 01:03:11,280 don't want to compromise 1777 01:03:16,549 --> 01:03:15,119 ongoing intelligence operations and um 1778 01:03:18,630 --> 01:03:16,559 i don't think though that's an excuse to 1779 01:03:22,390 --> 01:03:18,640 conceal something that's embarrassing 1780 01:03:23,029 --> 01:03:22,400 which is distressing uh as i say in my 1781 01:03:25,510 --> 01:03:23,039 book 1782 01:03:27,029 --> 01:03:25,520 we can handle the truth this isn't a 1783 01:03:30,069 --> 01:03:27,039 colonel jessup situation 1784 01:03:32,950 --> 01:03:30,079 where uh you know the public 1785 01:03:33,670 --> 01:03:32,960 can't handle the truth so we really can 1786 01:03:35,670 --> 01:03:33,680 you know if 1787 01:03:36,870 --> 01:03:35,680 if this is something that is purely just 1788 01:03:39,990 --> 01:03:36,880 going to be confronting 1789 01:03:42,230 --> 01:03:40,000 to religious people it might challenge 1790 01:03:44,309 --> 01:03:42,240 our spiritual notions of ourselves 1791 01:03:46,150 --> 01:03:44,319 as human beings our exceptionalism as 1792 01:03:46,789 --> 01:03:46,160 human beings that's not an adequate 1793 01:03:49,109 --> 01:03:46,799 experience 1794 01:03:50,630 --> 01:03:49,119 i take some persuading i suppose that 1795 01:03:51,750 --> 01:03:50,640 it's necessary for this to be kept 1796 01:03:54,390 --> 01:03:51,760 secret 1797 01:03:55,349 --> 01:03:54,400 but if for example let's let's assume 1798 01:03:58,710 --> 01:03:55,359 that 1799 01:04:00,230 --> 01:03:58,720 there's a problem in developing this 1800 01:04:02,630 --> 01:04:00,240 technology because that's what eric 1801 01:04:04,470 --> 01:04:02,640 suggested eric davis has did i think in 1802 01:04:06,710 --> 01:04:04,480 a number of interviews that 1803 01:04:07,910 --> 01:04:06,720 efforts to re-engineer this technology 1804 01:04:13,109 --> 01:04:07,920 stopped around 1805 01:04:17,349 --> 01:04:15,589 yeah eric it's like eric says that and 1806 01:04:19,270 --> 01:04:17,359 there are other people who say that 1807 01:04:20,870 --> 01:04:19,280 um but then you have will miller who i 1808 01:04:22,390 --> 01:04:20,880 interviewed and he's like oh no 1809 01:04:23,829 --> 01:04:22,400 we've got these craft you know he's been 1810 01:04:25,430 --> 01:04:23,839 talking about that for a long time he's 1811 01:04:26,470 --> 01:04:25,440 like we have craft i can go anywhere any 1812 01:04:29,349 --> 01:04:26,480 place 1813 01:04:30,630 --> 01:04:29,359 anytime in the universe so i think do 1814 01:04:32,870 --> 01:04:30,640 you agree with this if 1815 01:04:34,710 --> 01:04:32,880 we if we have that type of technology 1816 01:04:37,270 --> 01:04:34,720 any level between 1817 01:04:38,710 --> 01:04:37,280 you know just some progress to compare 1818 01:04:39,670 --> 01:04:38,720 to what will miller says where we've 1819 01:04:40,789 --> 01:04:39,680 mastered it 1820 01:04:42,549 --> 01:04:40,799 do you think that would be more 1821 01:04:43,990 --> 01:04:42,559 classified than just if ets were 1822 01:04:44,870 --> 01:04:44,000 visiting because i didn't i think it 1823 01:04:47,670 --> 01:04:44,880 would be 1824 01:04:48,870 --> 01:04:47,680 if you had that tag i think frankly i 1825 01:04:50,630 --> 01:04:48,880 don't think most humans would be 1826 01:04:52,069 --> 01:04:50,640 surprised if there were other life forms 1827 01:04:53,349 --> 01:04:52,079 when i think we've been being prepared 1828 01:04:55,190 --> 01:04:53,359 for it for 1829 01:04:57,109 --> 01:04:55,200 popular through popular culture for much 1830 01:04:58,710 --> 01:04:57,119 of the last 40 or 50 years you know our 1831 01:05:00,789 --> 01:04:58,720 society is obsessed 1832 01:05:02,390 --> 01:05:00,799 we're fascinated with the idea that it 1833 01:05:04,470 --> 01:05:02,400 might be other life forms and 1834 01:05:06,150 --> 01:05:04,480 i think largely we tend to see it as 1835 01:05:07,750 --> 01:05:06,160 benevolent even though hollywood's spent 1836 01:05:07,990 --> 01:05:07,760 a large amount of money in the last few 1837 01:05:09,750 --> 01:05:08,000 years 1838 01:05:11,829 --> 01:05:09,760 trying to scare the hell out of us you 1839 01:05:14,230 --> 01:05:11,839 know armageddon independence day 1840 01:05:15,750 --> 01:05:14,240 you know the the notion that that that 1841 01:05:17,829 --> 01:05:15,760 aliens might be a threat 1842 01:05:18,950 --> 01:05:17,839 i think most people don't really think 1843 01:05:21,510 --> 01:05:18,960 that 1844 01:05:22,390 --> 01:05:21,520 one of my favorite movies is a rival 1845 01:05:26,309 --> 01:05:22,400 which i think is 1846 01:05:29,029 --> 01:05:26,319 brilliant really encapsulates in my mind 1847 01:05:29,750 --> 01:05:29,039 the notion that whatever it is the 1848 01:05:31,750 --> 01:05:29,760 intelligence 1849 01:05:33,750 --> 01:05:31,760 that is out there and i think there is 1850 01:05:36,150 --> 01:05:33,760 one i'm sure there is 1851 01:05:37,430 --> 01:05:36,160 um whatever it is part of the issue for 1852 01:05:39,430 --> 01:05:37,440 us is communication 1853 01:05:40,630 --> 01:05:39,440 just understanding how to communicate 1854 01:05:42,470 --> 01:05:40,640 with it 1855 01:05:44,309 --> 01:05:42,480 but let's come back to a moment for what 1856 01:05:46,950 --> 01:05:44,319 you're talking about yes 1857 01:05:47,670 --> 01:05:46,960 if the us is developing this technology 1858 01:05:52,150 --> 01:05:47,680 in the black 1859 01:05:54,870 --> 01:05:52,160 if there is and i think there is 1860 01:05:55,670 --> 01:05:54,880 a huge black program that's trying to 1861 01:05:58,630 --> 01:05:55,680 develop 1862 01:05:58,870 --> 01:05:58,640 this technology i would keep that secret 1863 01:06:02,470 --> 01:05:58,880 as 1864 01:06:04,950 --> 01:06:02,480 that 1865 01:06:05,510 --> 01:06:04,960 has crossed my mind and i start my book 1866 01:06:10,230 --> 01:06:05,520 with 1867 01:06:13,190 --> 01:06:10,240 an incident in north west cape in 1991 1868 01:06:14,549 --> 01:06:13,200 where an australian woman was traveling 1869 01:06:16,470 --> 01:06:14,559 in the company with two 1870 01:06:18,309 --> 01:06:16,480 security policemen from our federal 1871 01:06:20,950 --> 01:06:18,319 police service from 1872 01:06:22,710 --> 01:06:20,960 a u.s base a classified highly top 1873 01:06:26,069 --> 01:06:22,720 secret u.s base 1874 01:06:28,150 --> 01:06:26,079 uh way up in northwest cape in 1875 01:06:29,349 --> 01:06:28,160 australia's north west in western 1876 01:06:31,510 --> 01:06:29,359 australia 1877 01:06:32,470 --> 01:06:31,520 and uh it's a it's a base that's 1878 01:06:34,950 --> 01:06:32,480 targeting 1879 01:06:35,829 --> 01:06:34,960 uh submarines with communications 1880 01:06:40,150 --> 01:06:35,839 signals 1881 01:06:42,549 --> 01:06:40,160 on the huge vlf very low frequency array 1882 01:06:44,829 --> 01:06:42,559 um that's erected hundreds of meters 1883 01:06:47,109 --> 01:06:44,839 into the air in this piece of barren 1884 01:06:49,270 --> 01:06:47,119 land nowhere in australia 1885 01:06:51,270 --> 01:06:49,280 and it communicates with submarines 1886 01:06:51,589 --> 01:06:51,280 notably in the event of nuclear war it's 1887 01:06:53,589 --> 01:06:51,599 where 1888 01:06:55,430 --> 01:06:53,599 your american government sends out the 1889 01:06:58,150 --> 01:06:55,440 signals to launch the missiles 1890 01:06:59,990 --> 01:06:58,160 and it can send these signals underwater 1891 01:07:00,710 --> 01:07:00,000 thereby protecting the submarines from 1892 01:07:04,230 --> 01:07:00,720 detection 1893 01:07:08,549 --> 01:07:04,240 of soviet russian satellites 1894 01:07:12,069 --> 01:07:08,559 and um any store a huge 1895 01:07:14,870 --> 01:07:12,079 triangular black craft hovering 1896 01:07:16,549 --> 01:07:14,880 over their car early one morning as he 1897 01:07:17,670 --> 01:07:16,559 was driving back from this base with 1898 01:07:19,270 --> 01:07:17,680 these two policemen 1899 01:07:21,190 --> 01:07:19,280 and it was a craft that was 1900 01:07:23,589 --> 01:07:21,200 intelligently controlled that 1901 01:07:25,829 --> 01:07:23,599 displayed speeds and maneuvers that were 1902 01:07:27,510 --> 01:07:25,839 just mind-boggling to her 1903 01:07:29,430 --> 01:07:27,520 but the thing that i think about that 1904 01:07:32,549 --> 01:07:29,440 incident fascinates me the most 1905 01:07:35,750 --> 01:07:32,559 is the americans 1906 01:07:37,990 --> 01:07:35,760 weren't so much interested in what 1907 01:07:39,190 --> 01:07:38,000 she could tell them about the object 1908 01:07:42,230 --> 01:07:39,200 they were more interested 1909 01:07:43,990 --> 01:07:42,240 in the not talking about it and her 1910 01:07:45,589 --> 01:07:44,000 walking away with the delusion that it 1911 01:07:48,870 --> 01:07:45,599 was a weather balloon 1912 01:07:50,549 --> 01:07:48,880 they were trying to shut her down and uh 1913 01:07:52,549 --> 01:07:50,559 you know implicitly there was the threat 1914 01:07:54,549 --> 01:07:52,559 that she shouldn't talk about 1915 01:07:56,069 --> 01:07:54,559 and certainly the two policemen that she 1916 01:07:58,069 --> 01:07:56,079 was with were 1917 01:08:00,470 --> 01:07:58,079 bullied and intimidated into keeping 1918 01:08:02,390 --> 01:08:00,480 quiet about what they saw they genuinely 1919 01:08:05,750 --> 01:08:02,400 feared for their lives 1920 01:08:07,589 --> 01:08:05,760 and i'm very 1921 01:08:09,510 --> 01:08:07,599 speculating in my head but i'm very much 1922 01:08:11,670 --> 01:08:09,520 of the view that 1923 01:08:14,390 --> 01:08:11,680 i think it's possible the us has been 1924 01:08:17,669 --> 01:08:14,400 testing technology that it used to test 1925 01:08:19,189 --> 01:08:17,679 at area 51 in northwestern australia in 1926 01:08:20,070 --> 01:08:19,199 one of the most remote parts of the 1927 01:08:22,149 --> 01:08:20,080 world 1928 01:08:24,309 --> 01:08:22,159 at the secure base that it operated 1929 01:08:25,990 --> 01:08:24,319 until 1991 1930 01:08:27,990 --> 01:08:26,000 and i don't think it's any coincidence 1931 01:08:29,829 --> 01:08:28,000 that in and around that time 1932 01:08:32,390 --> 01:08:29,839 this is when george knapp was breaking 1933 01:08:34,550 --> 01:08:32,400 the revelations about area 51 you'd be 1934 01:08:36,390 --> 01:08:34,560 being used for testing 1935 01:08:38,309 --> 01:08:36,400 new and interesting craft you've got the 1936 01:08:41,269 --> 01:08:38,319 bob lazar allegations they put 1937 01:08:41,829 --> 01:08:41,279 one of those but essentially area 51 was 1938 01:08:44,390 --> 01:08:41,839 blown 1939 01:08:46,149 --> 01:08:44,400 as a secret nevada test brain you know 1940 01:08:48,950 --> 01:08:46,159 you couldn't fly 1941 01:08:49,990 --> 01:08:48,960 exotic aerospace craft anymore in and 1942 01:08:51,910 --> 01:08:50,000 around there without 1943 01:08:53,749 --> 01:08:51,920 jim goodall and others having huge 1944 01:08:56,070 --> 01:08:53,759 lenses at the end of runways 1945 01:08:57,910 --> 01:08:56,080 catching snaps of what was coming out 1946 01:09:00,870 --> 01:08:57,920 and so i don't think it's inconceivable 1947 01:09:02,709 --> 01:09:00,880 at all that what the us was 1948 01:09:03,990 --> 01:09:02,719 you know demanding to do was to find a 1949 01:09:07,110 --> 01:09:04,000 different location 1950 01:09:09,349 --> 01:09:07,120 and the way in which the 1951 01:09:10,149 --> 01:09:09,359 investigations into that pyramid look 1952 01:09:13,189 --> 01:09:10,159 triangular 1953 01:09:15,590 --> 01:09:13,199 ufo incident in 1991 1954 01:09:16,229 --> 01:09:15,600 the way those investigations went 1955 01:09:19,189 --> 01:09:16,239 suggests 1956 01:09:19,749 --> 01:09:19,199 to me that it wasn't a surprise to the 1957 01:09:22,390 --> 01:09:19,759 u.s 1958 01:09:23,030 --> 01:09:22,400 what was seen by this person what was a 1959 01:09:25,030 --> 01:09:23,040 concern 1960 01:09:26,950 --> 01:09:25,040 was her talking about it making the 1961 01:09:29,030 --> 01:09:26,960 public aware of it 1962 01:09:31,349 --> 01:09:29,040 and there's a question mark in my mind 1963 01:09:32,950 --> 01:09:31,359 is the u.s testing technology 1964 01:09:35,349 --> 01:09:32,960 in the black and different parts of the 1965 01:09:37,110 --> 01:09:35,359 world um 1966 01:09:38,390 --> 01:09:37,120 i do think it's possible that australia 1967 01:09:39,829 --> 01:09:38,400 has been used for that 1968 01:09:41,749 --> 01:09:39,839 whether our government knows about that 1969 01:09:44,630 --> 01:09:41,759 or not 1970 01:09:45,990 --> 01:09:44,640 that's one of them that that suggests 1971 01:09:48,309 --> 01:09:46,000 that possibly we are 1972 01:09:50,870 --> 01:09:48,319 testing or you are testing technology 1973 01:09:54,310 --> 01:09:50,880 that the world doesn't yet know about 1974 01:09:55,990 --> 01:09:54,320 um which frankly if i was the us air 1975 01:09:58,390 --> 01:09:56,000 force i'd want to keep secret 1976 01:10:00,070 --> 01:09:58,400 you know in the event of a war one of 1977 01:10:01,990 --> 01:10:00,080 the um 1978 01:10:03,990 --> 01:10:02,000 the fundamental principles of war 1979 01:10:05,430 --> 01:10:04,000 fighting is surprise 1980 01:10:07,669 --> 01:10:05,440 you know you don't want your enemy to 1981 01:10:10,149 --> 01:10:07,679 know what your capabilities are 1982 01:10:10,950 --> 01:10:10,159 uh and is it outside the realm of 1983 01:10:14,070 --> 01:10:10,960 possibility 1984 01:10:16,790 --> 01:10:14,080 the us has and is developing 1985 01:10:17,750 --> 01:10:16,800 anti-gravity propulsion technology and 1986 01:10:19,669 --> 01:10:17,760 awesome in 1987 01:10:21,270 --> 01:10:19,679 energy systems and awesome stealth 1988 01:10:23,189 --> 01:10:21,280 systems in the black that they haven't 1989 01:10:25,189 --> 01:10:23,199 yet publicly disclosed 1990 01:10:27,990 --> 01:10:25,199 yes i do i sincerely hope that that's 1991 01:10:29,669 --> 01:10:28,000 the case i really do hope that the us is 1992 01:10:30,470 --> 01:10:29,679 out there doing it because i'd rather 1993 01:10:32,790 --> 01:10:30,480 it's the u.s 1994 01:10:35,110 --> 01:10:32,800 and china or russia it's going to help 1995 01:10:36,870 --> 01:10:35,120 us all if they are 1996 01:10:39,270 --> 01:10:36,880 yeah and along the lines of whether or 1997 01:10:40,149 --> 01:10:39,280 not we have developed that technology 1998 01:10:42,470 --> 01:10:40,159 you know 1999 01:10:44,470 --> 01:10:42,480 i met will miller back in 2000 i didn't 2000 01:10:45,350 --> 01:10:44,480 realize how important of a player he was 2001 01:10:47,270 --> 01:10:45,360 back then 2002 01:10:49,110 --> 01:10:47,280 and um one of the things he said during 2003 01:10:50,790 --> 01:10:49,120 his interviews he said 2004 01:10:52,709 --> 01:10:50,800 he said he met somebody he had a friend 2005 01:10:53,350 --> 01:10:52,719 who worked at area 51 and as the guy was 2006 01:10:56,709 --> 01:10:53,360 leaving 2007 01:10:58,390 --> 01:10:56,719 the guy took him aside and said 2008 01:11:00,790 --> 01:10:58,400 you know will some of the folks you talk 2009 01:11:02,870 --> 01:11:00,800 with maybe some c seti researchers 2010 01:11:03,830 --> 01:11:02,880 and that was dr stephen greer's original 2011 01:11:05,510 --> 01:11:03,840 organization 2012 01:11:06,950 --> 01:11:05,520 so they may see some objects that are 2013 01:11:08,709 --> 01:11:06,960 doing you know mach 9 2014 01:11:09,990 --> 01:11:08,719 and then suddenly make a right right 2015 01:11:11,350 --> 01:11:10,000 angle return and you say 2016 01:11:13,189 --> 01:11:11,360 well gosh that's got to be an 2017 01:11:15,110 --> 01:11:13,199 extraterrestrial craft 2018 01:11:17,110 --> 01:11:15,120 and then he looked at me and he said but 2019 01:11:19,510 --> 01:11:17,120 it's not and he just walked and turned 2020 01:11:23,189 --> 01:11:19,520 he turned and walked away so it's like 2021 01:11:25,590 --> 01:11:23,199 you know i want i see that and i'm like 2022 01:11:27,750 --> 01:11:25,600 maybe we do have this and i and will it 2023 01:11:29,750 --> 01:11:27,760 will is somebody he bucks 2024 01:11:31,430 --> 01:11:29,760 these guys will not talk about that 2025 01:11:33,110 --> 01:11:31,440 stuff i've had nobody else talk to me 2026 01:11:33,990 --> 01:11:33,120 about the possibility of us having this 2027 01:11:38,070 --> 01:11:34,000 kind of 2028 01:11:39,350 --> 01:11:38,080 seems like he believes if 2029 01:11:41,510 --> 01:11:39,360 you know he believes we have it and he 2030 01:11:43,270 --> 01:11:41,520 believes it's our right to know about it 2031 01:11:46,149 --> 01:11:43,280 and he's really pushing the edge 2032 01:11:47,830 --> 01:11:46,159 um obviously i don't think he's yeah 2033 01:11:50,149 --> 01:11:47,840 when you do have people like will 2034 01:11:51,669 --> 01:11:50,159 saying that i mean he was i know part of 2035 01:11:53,590 --> 01:11:51,679 the meeting with stephen greer that went 2036 01:11:54,870 --> 01:11:53,600 into the pentagon to talk to tom wilson 2037 01:11:57,110 --> 01:11:54,880 in 2002 2038 01:11:57,990 --> 01:11:57,120 you know the original meeting where 2039 01:11:59,990 --> 01:11:58,000 allegedly 2040 01:12:01,590 --> 01:12:00,000 the then deputy director of the defense 2041 01:12:03,350 --> 01:12:01,600 intelligence agency 2042 01:12:04,709 --> 01:12:03,360 learned for the first time about the 2043 01:12:07,990 --> 01:12:04,719 existence of 2044 01:12:11,030 --> 01:12:08,000 secret ufo retrieval programs inside 2045 01:12:13,110 --> 01:12:11,040 the military complex that he was part of 2046 01:12:14,950 --> 01:12:13,120 and which he is a j2 had not been 2047 01:12:18,550 --> 01:12:14,960 briefed on 2048 01:12:20,149 --> 01:12:18,560 if that's true but what's interesting is 2049 01:12:23,030 --> 01:12:20,159 i noticed will miller sort of pulled his 2050 01:12:27,270 --> 01:12:23,040 punches since he's kept quiet since 2051 01:12:29,030 --> 01:12:27,280 and look i like to think you know i mean 2052 01:12:31,030 --> 01:12:29,040 i i yeah i mean just coming back for a 2053 01:12:32,870 --> 01:12:31,040 moment to your question if somebody from 2054 01:12:36,470 --> 01:12:32,880 the us government or my government 2055 01:12:39,510 --> 01:12:36,480 contacted me and said ross 2056 01:12:40,630 --> 01:12:39,520 we want you to know that we have this 2057 01:12:45,110 --> 01:12:40,640 technology 2058 01:12:47,910 --> 01:12:45,120 but you can't report this part of it 2059 01:12:51,510 --> 01:12:47,920 because to do that and compromise an 2060 01:12:54,950 --> 01:12:51,520 operation or a national security concern 2061 01:12:55,590 --> 01:12:54,960 every journalist would weigh the public 2062 01:12:57,430 --> 01:12:55,600 interest 2063 01:12:59,910 --> 01:12:57,440 before determining whether or not they 2064 01:13:03,669 --> 01:12:59,920 should publish 2065 01:13:05,669 --> 01:13:03,679 you have to do that i mean i've been 2066 01:13:07,750 --> 01:13:05,679 confronted i remember once 2067 01:13:09,110 --> 01:13:07,760 i can remember once uh i was doing an 2068 01:13:12,470 --> 01:13:09,120 investigation into 2069 01:13:16,229 --> 01:13:12,480 um alleged corruption inside our 2070 01:13:17,990 --> 01:13:16,239 tax office and uh 2071 01:13:20,310 --> 01:13:18,000 this is well before the days of 2072 01:13:21,910 --> 01:13:20,320 wikileaks and things like that but 2073 01:13:23,590 --> 01:13:21,920 i've never been leaked an entire 2074 01:13:25,990 --> 01:13:23,600 database before but 2075 01:13:27,830 --> 01:13:26,000 um i i'd run a couple of stories about 2076 01:13:28,870 --> 01:13:27,840 how there were organized crime figures 2077 01:13:31,510 --> 01:13:28,880 from the italian 2078 01:13:32,709 --> 01:13:31,520 drungata mafia who were actually working 2079 01:13:34,630 --> 01:13:32,719 in the tax office 2080 01:13:36,790 --> 01:13:34,640 and who were doing dodgy things with our 2081 01:13:40,390 --> 01:13:36,800 tax department and um 2082 01:13:43,350 --> 01:13:40,400 one day a high-speed tape 2083 01:13:44,470 --> 01:13:43,360 which was the sort of top backup system 2084 01:13:46,950 --> 01:13:44,480 of the time 2085 01:13:47,590 --> 01:13:46,960 a lunch box full of high-speed tapes 2086 01:13:50,229 --> 01:13:47,600 arrived 2087 01:13:51,910 --> 01:13:50,239 you know post-pac envelope in my office 2088 01:13:53,750 --> 01:13:51,920 and i'd never seen these type of tapes 2089 01:13:55,830 --> 01:13:53,760 before and there was only one place 2090 01:13:57,110 --> 01:13:55,840 in the entire tv network where i worked 2091 01:13:59,910 --> 01:13:57,120 where we could actually 2092 01:14:01,350 --> 01:13:59,920 view these tapes and we could only view 2093 01:14:02,950 --> 01:14:01,360 it for half an hour because it was where 2094 01:14:04,070 --> 01:14:02,960 the corporate backup for the whole 2095 01:14:07,430 --> 01:14:04,080 network was done 2096 01:14:09,430 --> 01:14:07,440 inside this um temperature-controlled 2097 01:14:10,790 --> 01:14:09,440 phylo inside the network which was a 2098 01:14:12,790 --> 01:14:10,800 secure room 2099 01:14:14,550 --> 01:14:12,800 and so the head of it took me and we 2100 01:14:16,709 --> 01:14:14,560 plugged in one of these tapes 2101 01:14:18,470 --> 01:14:16,719 and we started looking at it on a screen 2102 01:14:19,430 --> 01:14:18,480 and we realized that what i was looking 2103 01:14:22,470 --> 01:14:19,440 at 2104 01:14:26,070 --> 01:14:22,480 were the unsecured unencrypted 2105 01:14:29,030 --> 01:14:26,080 names and addresses and tax details of 2106 01:14:30,790 --> 01:14:29,040 very respectable vip public figures 2107 01:14:32,950 --> 01:14:30,800 politicians 2108 01:14:35,110 --> 01:14:32,960 rock stars celebrities all over 2109 01:14:36,950 --> 01:14:35,120 australia and it was their tax records 2110 01:14:38,550 --> 01:14:36,960 i saw some very famous hollywood actors 2111 01:14:41,030 --> 01:14:38,560 names in there 2112 01:14:43,830 --> 01:14:41,040 and we scanned through it for 20 minutes 2113 01:14:46,229 --> 01:14:43,840 and then i looked at him and i said well 2114 01:14:47,189 --> 01:14:46,239 i shouldn't have these and he said no 2115 01:14:49,430 --> 01:14:47,199 you shouldn't 2116 01:14:50,870 --> 01:14:49,440 and i said i can think of about 20 2117 01:14:54,149 --> 01:14:50,880 different laws that we 2118 01:14:56,390 --> 01:14:54,159 committed breaches of budget 2119 01:14:57,669 --> 01:14:56,400 because you know the the tax office in 2120 01:14:59,270 --> 01:14:57,679 australia and i'm sure it's the same 2121 01:15:02,390 --> 01:14:59,280 with your tax office in america 2122 01:15:04,630 --> 01:15:02,400 it's merciless in protecting the um 2123 01:15:06,470 --> 01:15:04,640 the private records of citizens so it 2124 01:15:07,270 --> 01:15:06,480 should be i wouldn't want my tax records 2125 01:15:10,149 --> 01:15:07,280 out there and 2126 01:15:11,750 --> 01:15:10,159 you wouldn't want yours and so it i 2127 01:15:14,870 --> 01:15:11,760 realized that what had happened 2128 01:15:17,030 --> 01:15:14,880 was incredibly back in those days 2129 01:15:19,669 --> 01:15:17,040 companies including the tax office did 2130 01:15:22,070 --> 01:15:19,679 corporate backups of the it systems 2131 01:15:22,870 --> 01:15:22,080 and they would literally leave the 2132 01:15:25,990 --> 01:15:22,880 backups 2133 01:15:27,270 --> 01:15:26,000 in the foyer of the tax office for 2134 01:15:29,430 --> 01:15:27,280 pickup by the 2135 01:15:31,189 --> 01:15:29,440 courier that afternoon and it would just 2136 01:15:32,630 --> 01:15:31,199 be an anonymous lunchbox that was left 2137 01:15:34,630 --> 01:15:32,640 in a corner of the foyer and the 2138 01:15:36,149 --> 01:15:34,640 motorcycle courier would come in 2139 01:15:37,830 --> 01:15:36,159 and it turned out the security guards 2140 01:15:39,430 --> 01:15:37,840 just couldn't be bothered handling the 2141 01:15:40,950 --> 01:15:39,440 paperwork at the deck so they just left 2142 01:15:42,630 --> 01:15:40,960 it in front of the foyer and 2143 01:15:44,790 --> 01:15:42,640 these guys in a helmet would come in and 2144 01:15:46,709 --> 01:15:44,800 just grab the box and go off 2145 01:15:48,870 --> 01:15:46,719 and so some i never found out who the 2146 01:15:49,510 --> 01:15:48,880 source was but some sources realized 2147 01:15:53,270 --> 01:15:49,520 that 2148 01:15:55,430 --> 01:15:53,280 going to piss off the tax office and 2149 01:15:57,590 --> 01:15:55,440 they flopped the lunch box 2150 01:15:59,270 --> 01:15:57,600 and so they'd literally flogged the 2151 01:16:00,390 --> 01:15:59,280 lunch box by just walking in with a 2152 01:16:02,229 --> 01:16:00,400 helmet on me here 2153 01:16:03,910 --> 01:16:02,239 i was told by my sources in the tax 2154 01:16:05,430 --> 01:16:03,920 office when they reviewed the cctv 2155 01:16:07,830 --> 01:16:05,440 vision that's exactly what happened 2156 01:16:11,830 --> 01:16:07,840 because they couldn't identify the guy 2157 01:16:13,270 --> 01:16:11,840 and um i basically said 2158 01:16:14,870 --> 01:16:13,280 to the tax office look i'm giving you 2159 01:16:17,350 --> 01:16:14,880 this box back 2160 01:16:19,110 --> 01:16:17,360 i'm not going to do a story about it i 2161 01:16:21,910 --> 01:16:19,120 haven't kept a backup copy 2162 01:16:22,310 --> 01:16:21,920 and i shouldn't have that information 2163 01:16:24,870 --> 01:16:22,320 and 2164 01:16:26,630 --> 01:16:24,880 as a journalist i could have generated a 2165 01:16:28,390 --> 01:16:26,640 thousand stories 2166 01:16:30,390 --> 01:16:28,400 out of the information that i've been 2167 01:16:33,669 --> 01:16:30,400 leaked but i 2168 01:16:34,390 --> 01:16:33,679 took the decision that the laws are so 2169 01:16:36,950 --> 01:16:34,400 punitive 2170 01:16:39,030 --> 01:16:36,960 the public interest is so immense i 2171 01:16:41,110 --> 01:16:39,040 shouldn't have that information 2172 01:16:42,070 --> 01:16:41,120 did i do the wrong thing some people 2173 01:16:44,950 --> 01:16:42,080 might say that but 2174 01:16:46,149 --> 01:16:44,960 i actually don't think i did i i'm glad 2175 01:16:48,390 --> 01:16:46,159 i gave it back 2176 01:16:49,270 --> 01:16:48,400 yeah you're one of the good people yeah 2177 01:16:51,350 --> 01:16:49,280 but but i 2178 01:16:52,709 --> 01:16:51,360 i i think occasionally in national 2179 01:16:55,270 --> 01:16:52,719 security issues 2180 01:16:57,830 --> 01:16:55,280 if the us has developed anti-gravity 2181 01:17:00,310 --> 01:16:57,840 technology in the back black 2182 01:17:02,390 --> 01:17:00,320 and if we are headed for a confrontation 2183 01:17:04,630 --> 01:17:02,400 in the taiwan strait with china 2184 01:17:06,149 --> 01:17:04,640 i bloody want the americans to have that 2185 01:17:07,830 --> 01:17:06,159 technology 2186 01:17:09,189 --> 01:17:07,840 living daylights out of anyone that 2187 01:17:11,350 --> 01:17:09,199 takes them on 2188 01:17:12,950 --> 01:17:11,360 because my countrymen i've got friends 2189 01:17:14,550 --> 01:17:12,960 that fly fighter aircraft with the 2190 01:17:16,550 --> 01:17:14,560 australian air force i don't want them 2191 01:17:17,990 --> 01:17:16,560 to build in this 2192 01:17:19,830 --> 01:17:18,000 you know i've got mates that have fought 2193 01:17:21,110 --> 01:17:19,840 for the special forces in iraq and 2194 01:17:23,030 --> 01:17:21,120 afghanistan 2195 01:17:25,110 --> 01:17:23,040 with your soldiers and delta and the 2196 01:17:27,669 --> 01:17:25,120 seal teams and i don't want them 2197 01:17:29,270 --> 01:17:27,679 any more than you know is absolutely 2198 01:17:30,790 --> 01:17:29,280 necessary in order to secure our 2199 01:17:32,630 --> 01:17:30,800 national interest 2200 01:17:34,390 --> 01:17:32,640 so yeah i mean i i accept as a 2201 01:17:35,590 --> 01:17:34,400 journalist but occasionally things have 2202 01:17:37,189 --> 01:17:35,600 to be kept secret 2203 01:17:38,870 --> 01:17:37,199 and i've stumbled across things like 2204 01:17:40,470 --> 01:17:38,880 that in my time as a journalist and i've 2205 01:17:43,590 --> 01:17:40,480 kept quiet about them 2206 01:17:44,870 --> 01:17:43,600 but in this case i see no evidence that 2207 01:17:48,550 --> 01:17:44,880 this deserves to 2208 01:17:50,390 --> 01:17:48,560 be kept secret you know uh 2209 01:17:52,229 --> 01:17:50,400 if national security journalists are 2210 01:17:54,149 --> 01:17:52,239 being told that none of the people that 2211 01:17:55,189 --> 01:17:54,159 i've spoken to have told me that i 2212 01:17:56,950 --> 01:17:55,199 understand 2213 01:17:58,470 --> 01:17:56,960 there's a good reason as to why this is 2214 01:18:01,110 --> 01:17:58,480 being kept secret 2215 01:18:01,990 --> 01:18:01,120 i don't think the reason's a good one i 2216 01:18:04,070 --> 01:18:02,000 just think it's 2217 01:18:05,350 --> 01:18:04,080 simple embarrassment right and i think 2218 01:18:08,070 --> 01:18:05,360 there's a bunch of people 2219 01:18:10,310 --> 01:18:08,080 at high levels in the pentagon and more 2220 01:18:12,070 --> 01:18:10,320 likely i suspect in private aerospace 2221 01:18:14,950 --> 01:18:12,080 who are guiding this secret 2222 01:18:16,630 --> 01:18:14,960 who realize they've probably broken laws 2223 01:18:20,550 --> 01:18:16,640 i think there's been a very 2224 01:18:23,750 --> 01:18:20,560 active attempt to mislead the public 2225 01:18:24,950 --> 01:18:23,760 to lie to the public to buy to your 2226 01:18:27,189 --> 01:18:24,960 congress 2227 01:18:29,830 --> 01:18:27,199 and i think on occasion crimes have been 2228 01:18:31,750 --> 01:18:29,840 committed to conceal the secret 2229 01:18:34,149 --> 01:18:31,760 and i think a lot of people are very 2230 01:18:36,070 --> 01:18:34,159 nervous about the consequences of what 2231 01:18:37,910 --> 01:18:36,080 happens if this comes up they're trying 2232 01:18:39,750 --> 01:18:37,920 to control the narrative 2233 01:18:41,669 --> 01:18:39,760 one of the things i suspect is going on 2234 01:18:44,950 --> 01:18:41,679 is they're trying to present it 2235 01:18:47,110 --> 01:18:44,960 as if it all started in 2004 2236 01:18:49,189 --> 01:18:47,120 that way they can avoid any discussions 2237 01:18:51,590 --> 01:18:49,199 about embarrassing things like recovered 2238 01:18:53,590 --> 01:18:51,600 craft and recovered technology 2239 01:18:55,189 --> 01:18:53,600 because i think that they have recovered 2240 01:18:57,270 --> 01:18:55,199 technology i don't think there's too 2241 01:18:58,709 --> 01:18:57,280 much data in my mind about that 2242 01:19:01,590 --> 01:18:58,719 but i don't think they want to admit 2243 01:19:04,550 --> 01:19:01,600 that so it's easier for them to say 2244 01:19:05,830 --> 01:19:04,560 hey you know what people like dave 2245 01:19:07,510 --> 01:19:05,840 fraver are right we 2246 01:19:09,510 --> 01:19:07,520 we have discovered these anomalous 2247 01:19:11,110 --> 01:19:09,520 objects are real you know i know we 2248 01:19:12,550 --> 01:19:11,120 always thought they were nonsense but it 2249 01:19:14,550 --> 01:19:12,560 turns out they are real 2250 01:19:16,149 --> 01:19:14,560 and golly we're going to investigate 2251 01:19:16,870 --> 01:19:16,159 them and we're going to humor the public 2252 01:19:18,790 --> 01:19:16,880 by 2253 01:19:20,550 --> 01:19:18,800 setting up a uap task force which is 2254 01:19:23,350 --> 01:19:20,560 essentially window dressing 2255 01:19:25,030 --> 01:19:23,360 and meanwhile very active investigations 2256 01:19:28,550 --> 01:19:25,040 that have been going on for years behind 2257 01:19:32,790 --> 01:19:31,430 along those lines why would they keep it 2258 01:19:34,390 --> 01:19:32,800 secret it's funny because you know 2259 01:19:36,149 --> 01:19:34,400 there's so many possibilities one of the 2260 01:19:37,669 --> 01:19:36,159 things george knapp spoke about 2261 01:19:39,830 --> 01:19:37,679 a lot of people it's i think it's from 2262 01:19:42,229 --> 01:19:39,840 2007 2008 he said 2263 01:19:43,990 --> 01:19:42,239 he spoke to somebody who was in congress 2264 01:19:45,669 --> 01:19:44,000 either working for congress or in 2265 01:19:47,830 --> 01:19:45,679 congress i think they were in congress 2266 01:19:49,510 --> 01:19:47,840 and that person said the reason it's 2267 01:19:50,790 --> 01:19:49,520 kept secret is because 2268 01:19:52,550 --> 01:19:50,800 a lot of people are going to go to 2269 01:19:54,790 --> 01:19:52,560 prison for stealing

just 2273 01:20:01,110 --> 01:19:59,520 horrendous for people to handle it's all 2274 01:20:01,750 --> 01:20:01,120 about stuff like that that's what that 2275 01:20:02,630 --> 01:20:01,760 person 2276 01:20:04,310 --> 01:20:02,640 but it's you know it's really 2277 01:20:05,910 --> 01:20:04,320 interesting joe because i one of the 2278 01:20:08,310 --> 01:20:05,920 first questions i asked both louis 2279 01:20:10,870 --> 01:20:08,320 lozando and chris mellon 2280 01:20:11,750 --> 01:20:10,880 was i i presented them with the fact 2281 01:20:13,669 --> 01:20:11,760 that 2282 01:20:15,270 --> 01:20:13,679 there's clearly a cover-up going on and 2283 01:20:17,590 --> 01:20:15,280 and um 2284 01:20:19,270 --> 01:20:17,600 i said let's hypothetically assume that 2285 01:20:22,390 --> 01:20:19,280 this has been kept secret 2286 01:20:25,669 --> 01:20:22,400 illegally and they said why illegally 2287 01:20:28,229 --> 01:20:25,679 what's illegal about lying to congress 2288 01:20:29,590 --> 01:20:28,239 governments lie all the time and and the 2289 01:20:31,430 --> 01:20:29,600 reality is 2290 01:20:33,350 --> 01:20:31,440 lying's not illegal it's not illegal to 2291 01:20:35,110 --> 01:20:33,360 mislead a congressman 2292 01:20:36,950 --> 01:20:35,120 there's no law that says i mean it's 2293 01:20:38,470 --> 01:20:36,960 possibly a contempt of the congress 2294 01:20:40,870 --> 01:20:38,480 if the congress has asked a specific 2295 01:20:42,950 --> 01:20:40,880 question but how many times has your 2296 01:20:44,790 --> 01:20:42,960 your congress or our parliament 2297 01:20:47,110 --> 01:20:44,800 prosecuted somebody for lying to the 2298 01:20:49,510 --> 01:20:47,120 parliament or lying to the congress 2299 01:20:51,430 --> 01:20:49,520 i mean the reality is that yeah i mean 2300 01:20:52,550 --> 01:20:51,440 there's behavior like the kind of a 2301 01:20:54,470 --> 01:20:52,560 fosse 2302 01:20:55,590 --> 01:20:54,480 officer therefore special investigations 2303 01:20:58,790 --> 01:20:55,600 misbehavior where they've 2304 01:21:01,030 --> 01:20:58,800 actively you know perpetrated 2305 01:21:02,629 --> 01:21:01,040 i think intelligence operations arguably 2306 01:21:05,990 --> 01:21:02,639 illegally against people like 2307 01:21:07,189 --> 01:21:06,000 um benowitz paul benowitz um i don't 2308 01:21:09,270 --> 01:21:07,199 think there's any doubt that 2309 01:21:10,390 --> 01:21:09,280 intelligence services have been deployed 2310 01:21:12,830 --> 01:21:10,400 illegally on 2311 01:21:13,750 --> 01:21:12,840 american soil domestic operations of the 2312 01:21:15,350 --> 01:21:13,760 cia and 2313 01:21:16,870 --> 01:21:15,360 the national security agency against 2314 01:21:18,790 --> 01:21:16,880 american citizens 2315 01:21:20,229 --> 01:21:18,800 in order to protect a secret i suspect 2316 01:21:22,229 --> 01:21:20,239 that will come up 2317 01:21:23,270 --> 01:21:22,239 but really in the long run a lot of 2318 01:21:25,430 --> 01:21:23,280 what's been done 2319 01:21:27,030 --> 01:21:25,440 has been done in the national interest 2320 01:21:27,669 --> 01:21:27,040 if you can do things under an executive 2321 01:21:29,350 --> 01:21:27,679 order 2322 01:21:30,950 --> 01:21:29,360 under your constitution the president 2323 01:21:33,990 --> 01:21:30,960 can authorize 2324 01:21:38,070 --> 01:21:36,310 for people who have not heard the story 2325 01:21:40,310 --> 01:21:38,080 i really make sure we got to get to 2326 01:21:41,510 --> 01:21:40,320 the story of the man who called you in 2327 01:21:44,149 --> 01:21:41,520 the park 2328 01:21:44,629 --> 01:21:44,159 and and the man who said ask the 2329 01:21:48,470 --> 01:21:44,639 question 2330 01:21:52,070 --> 01:21:48,480 yeah if you could 2331 01:21:53,350 --> 01:21:52,080 go ahead sorry i um i sat down at the 2332 01:21:54,629 --> 01:21:53,360 very beginning of all of this and i 2333 01:21:57,110 --> 01:21:54,639 asked myself the question 2334 01:21:57,669 --> 01:21:57,120 which any journalist like me always asks 2335 01:22:00,470 --> 01:21:57,679 which is 2336 01:22:02,070 --> 01:22:00,480 how do you begin to investigate 2337 01:22:04,790 --> 01:22:02,080 something which is true 2338 01:22:06,229 --> 01:22:04,800 is being kept incredibly secret by the 2339 01:22:09,030 --> 01:22:06,239 us government because 2340 01:22:10,950 --> 01:22:09,040 my reading had convinced me by viewing 2341 01:22:12,149 --> 01:22:10,960 and reading and just talking to various 2342 01:22:13,990 --> 01:22:12,159 people that convinced me that there 2343 01:22:15,910 --> 01:22:14,000 really is something to this but i 2344 01:22:17,510 --> 01:22:15,920 i wanted to take it further i wanted to 2345 01:22:19,990 --> 01:22:17,520 advance it and so i 2346 01:22:22,310 --> 01:22:20,000 i sat down and i went through defense 2347 01:22:25,750 --> 01:22:22,320 reports 2348 01:22:26,870 --> 01:22:25,760 books inquiries and i thought about all 2349 01:22:29,669 --> 01:22:26,880 of the people who 2350 01:22:31,669 --> 01:22:29,679 could potentially help me if they were 2351 01:22:33,270 --> 01:22:31,679 engaged with in a way that protected 2352 01:22:35,270 --> 01:22:33,280 their anonymity 2353 01:22:38,070 --> 01:22:35,280 and so i thought about the fact that i 2354 01:22:40,790 --> 01:22:38,080 know about how easy it is to 2355 01:22:41,110 --> 01:22:40,800 track metadata of digital communications 2356 01:22:43,910 --> 01:22:41,120 i mean 2357 01:22:45,830 --> 01:22:43,920 essentially you know these mobile phones 2358 01:22:47,669 --> 01:22:45,840 there's nothing you can do with mobile 2359 01:22:49,270 --> 01:22:47,679 phones they're totally insecure 2360 01:22:51,590 --> 01:22:49,280 and and if anybody thinks they can 2361 01:22:52,629 --> 01:22:51,600 communicate as a journalist on a mobile 2362 01:22:54,629 --> 01:22:52,639 phone or by an 2363 01:22:56,229 --> 01:22:54,639 email or by any kind of comms on a 2364 01:22:57,830 --> 01:22:56,239 mobile you're screwed 2365 01:23:00,550 --> 01:22:57,840 you're immediately compromising your 2366 01:23:02,950 --> 01:23:00,560 source so i um 2367 01:23:04,709 --> 01:23:02,960 i wrote letters i sat down and i figured 2368 01:23:06,149 --> 01:23:04,719 out the home addresses of people all 2369 01:23:07,830 --> 01:23:06,159 over north america and 2370 01:23:09,590 --> 01:23:07,840 in different parts of the world who i 2371 01:23:11,110 --> 01:23:09,600 suspected might have known something 2372 01:23:15,430 --> 01:23:11,120 about this issue 2373 01:23:19,430 --> 01:23:17,510 sorry sorry i'm talking to the dog go 2374 01:23:22,390 --> 01:23:19,440 ahead okay sorry 2375 01:23:22,950 --> 01:23:22,400 um and so i um i basically wrote letters 2376 01:23:26,709 --> 01:23:22,960 to people 2377 01:23:27,189 --> 01:23:26,719 and i uh i invited them to correspond 2378 01:23:29,510 --> 01:23:27,199 with me 2379 01:23:31,430 --> 01:23:29,520 on telegram which is an encrypted app or 2380 01:23:35,590 --> 01:23:31,440 signal another encrypted app or 2381 01:23:38,550 --> 01:23:35,600 on pgp encryption or proton mail 2382 01:23:40,229 --> 01:23:38,560 or just to give me a letter back and 2383 01:23:43,270 --> 01:23:40,239 after a few months people did 2384 01:23:44,870 --> 01:23:43,280 they started responding and some of 2385 01:23:46,470 --> 01:23:44,880 those people 2386 01:23:48,070 --> 01:23:46,480 one of them in particular who was one of 2387 01:23:52,070 --> 01:23:48,080 the first to call me 2388 01:23:54,950 --> 01:23:52,080 he called me on my signal app 2389 01:23:56,470 --> 01:23:54,960 and i could hear he was clearly in a 2390 01:23:58,870 --> 01:23:56,480 park or something because i could hear 2391 01:24:01,270 --> 01:23:58,880 birds and i could hear kids playing 2392 01:24:01,990 --> 01:24:01,280 and it was his lunch hour and he come 2393 01:24:04,870 --> 01:24:02,000 out from 2394 01:24:05,750 --> 01:24:04,880 the aerospace contractor complex where 2395 01:24:08,709 --> 01:24:05,760 he was working 2396 01:24:09,830 --> 01:24:08,719 where he told me he worked on what he 2397 01:24:13,830 --> 01:24:09,840 called 2398 01:24:17,430 --> 01:24:13,840 the program and uh he 2399 01:24:20,070 --> 01:24:17,440 purported to be working on recovered 2400 01:24:22,310 --> 01:24:20,080 technology in a very compartmentalized 2401 01:24:26,070 --> 01:24:22,320 area of that 2402 01:24:28,950 --> 01:24:26,080 of that classified operation 2403 01:24:29,990 --> 01:24:28,960 and he was absolutely terrified to make 2404 01:24:33,189 --> 01:24:30,000 sure that 2405 01:24:35,910 --> 01:24:33,199 whilst i knew that this existed that he 2406 01:24:37,430 --> 01:24:35,920 not be compromised 2407 01:24:39,270 --> 01:24:37,440 but he thought there was a public 2408 01:24:40,709 --> 01:24:39,280 interest in the public knowing about 2409 01:24:44,149 --> 01:24:40,719 this 2410 01:24:47,830 --> 01:24:44,159 and then one of the people who called me 2411 01:24:51,189 --> 01:24:47,840 um to my amazement 2412 01:24:51,910 --> 01:24:51,199 was a guy called nat kobits the former 2413 01:24:54,550

done 2426 01:25:21,430 --> 01:25:19,120 as an american citizen serviceman 2427 01:25:23,830 --> 01:25:21,440 working with military to develop 2428 01:25:25,030 --> 01:25:23,840 cutting edge navy technology he'd been 2429 01:25:27,350 --> 01:25:25,040 involved in 2430 01:25:28,870 --> 01:25:27,360 early drone technology he'd been 2431 01:25:31,750 --> 01:25:28,880 involved in the development

the things that he explained 2441 01:25:52,709 --> 01:25:51,520 to me was that a lot of these programs 2442 01:25:54,149 --> 01:25:52,719 that he was aware of 2443 01:25:56,149 --> 01:25:54,159 he wouldn't talk about it because he'd 2444 01:25:58,229 --> 01:25:56,159 been read into them 2445 01:26:00,390 --> 01:25:58,239 he'd been security briefed into them and 2446 01:26:02,430 -->

security information and he made it very 2450 01:26:08,070 --> 01:26:07,520 clear to me that he wasn't going to 2451 01:26:09,990 --> 01:26:08,080 compromise 2452 01:26:13,510 --> 01:26:10,000 that information and i wasn't going to 2453 01:26:18,149 --> 01:26:16,070 but what was interesting was we'd kind 2454 01:26:18,709 --> 01:26:18,159 of agreed about parameters for what he 2455 01:26:23,590 --> 01:26:18,719 was 2456 01:26:26,870 --> 01:26:23,600 to him that 2457 01:26:30,950 --> 01:26:26,880 were you ever read into 2458 01:26:32,149 --> 01:26:30,960 any program which involved the

shocked i was really 2469 01:26:57,590 --> 01:26:56,880 shocked you know i've just got the 2470 01:27:02,070 --> 01:26:57,600 director 2471 01:27:04,550 --> 01:27:02,080 technology development the chief geek 2472 01:27:07,270 --> 01:27:04,560 admitted to me that he was read into a 2473 01:27:10,550 --> 01:27:07,280 crash retrieval program 2474 01:27:14,149 --> 01:27:12,229 let's be clear here now you're talking 2475 01:27:17,669 --> 01:27:14,159 about craft 2476 01:27:20,070 --> 01:27:17,679 and he said multiple craft 2477 01:27:22,149 --> 01:27:20,080 and that's pretty much all he was 2478 01:27:23,430 --> 01:27:22,159 prepared to reveal he told me he'd never 2479 01:27:25,910 --> 01:27:23,440 seen 2480 01:27:26,790 --> 01:27:25,920 these craft but he told me that he was 2481 01:27:29,910 --> 01:27:26,800 read into 2482 01:27:31,910 --> 01:27:29,920 a craft retrieval program that he 2483 01:27:33,910 --> 01:27:31,920 is essentially the former head of r d of 2484 01:27:36,470 --> 01:27:33,920 the u.s navy had been read into 2485 01:27:37,510 --> 01:27:36,480 while he was on the job and one of the 2486 01:27:40,550 --> 01:27:37,520 things i asked him 2487 01:27:42,470 --> 01:27:40,560 was is there an active 2488 01:27:44,390 --> 01:27:42,480 re-engineering program where they'd 2489 01:27:45,669 --> 01:27:44,400 actually cracked this technology 2490 01:27:47,669 --> 01:27:45,679 because he acknowledged that there'd 2491 01:27:48,629 --> 01:27:47,679 been a back engineering effort that had 2492 01:27:51,510 --> 01:27:48,639 been going on for 2493 01:27:53,910 --> 01:27:51,520 many many years he'd been briefed about 2494 01:27:55,669 --> 01:27:53,920 it he wouldn't exactly say when but he 2495 01:27:58,870 --> 01:27:55,679 briefed about it during his time and 2496 01:28:01,350 --> 01:27:58,880 that was many many years earlier 2497 01:28:03,189 --> 01:28:01,360 and he went away and asked a number of 2498 01:28:04,870 --> 01:28:03,199 his colleagues whether they were aware 2499 01:28:07,110 --> 01:28:04,880 of this technology had been 2500 01:28:08,709 --> 01:28:07,120 cracked in the black and he came back to 2501 01:28:10,310 --> 01:28:08,719 me and he said ross i don't think we've 2502 01:28:11,990 --> 01:28:10,320 cracked any politics 2503 01:28:13,590 --> 01:28:12,000 he says i think i would know about it i 2504 01:28:13,990 --> 01:28:13,600 would have had to have been told about 2505 01:28:21,669 --> 01:28:14,000 it 2506 01:28:25,990 --> 01:28:21,679 know 2507 01:28:28,470 --> 01:28:26,000 of your good guys and the thing i loved 2508 01:28:30,790 --> 01:28:28,480 about him he was a brooklyn 2509 01:28:31,830 --> 01:28:30,800 jew so he's a wisecracking guy with a 2510 01:28:34,790 --> 01:28:31,840 beautiful accent 2511 01:28:35,990 --> 01:28:34,800 and he was just so proud of the things 2512 01:28:39,669 --> 01:28:36,000 that he'd done 2513 01:28:42,229 --> 01:28:39,679 with your military in 30 or 40 years 2514 01:28:43,590 --> 01:28:42,239 working at the cutting edge of cold war 2515 01:28:46,149 --> 01:28:43,600 research 2516 01:28:47,830 --> 01:28:46,159 and he couldn't see as the way he had 2517 01:28:50,229 --> 01:28:47,840 explained it to me he couldn't see 2518 01:28:52,310 --> 01:28:50,239 any good reason why this could continue 2519 01:28:56,390 --> 01:28:52,320 to be secret 2520 01:28:57,910 --> 01:28:56,400 the fact that they'd recovered craft and 2521 01:28:59,350 --> 01:28:57,920 i mean essentially the best he would 2522 01:29:01,189 --> 01:28:59,360 acknowledge to me was that essentially 2523 01:29:03,350 --> 01:29:01,199 it was impossible to 2524 01:29:05,750 --> 01:29:03,360 you know what this was was so advanced 2525 01:29:07,430 --> 01:29:05,760 that their efforts to replicate it had 2526 01:29:10,310 --> 01:29:07,440 been unsuccessful 2527 01:29:11,110 --> 01:29:10,320 which kind of matched what eric's said 2528 01:29:12,709 --> 01:29:11,120 if you know 2529 01:29:15,270 --> 01:29:12,719 and that that's what was significant to 2530 01:29:16,229 --> 01:29:15,280 me but he seems to be supporting what dr 2531 01:29:18,390 --> 01:29:16,239 eric davis 2532 01:29:20,390 --> 01:29:18,400 said in the number of entities but it 2533 01:29:21,990 --> 01:29:20,400 was essentially shut down 2534 01:29:23,830 --> 01:29:22,000 at the end of the cold war which i 2535 01:29:25,510 --> 01:29:23,840 frankly don't believe i'm sure any 2536 01:29:26,950 --> 01:29:25,520 re-energy re-engineering effort is 2537 01:29:30,550 --> 01:29:26,960 continuing 2538 01:29:33,189 --> 01:29:30,560 but um nat 2539 01:29:35,030 --> 01:29:33,199 was dying and indeed he died in the 2540 01:29:37,830 --> 01:29:35,040 course of our um 2541 01:29:38,629 --> 01:29:37,840 conversations and uh you know a great 2542 01:29:40,629 --> 01:29:38,639 american 2543 01:29:43,750 --> 01:29:40,639 patriot died with him he was a very 2544 01:29:47,110 --> 01:29:43,760 decent man he became quite a good friend 2545 01:29:50,550 --> 01:29:47,120 but he put me on to a 2546 01:29:52,310 --> 01:29:50,560 number of people who will remain and 2547 01:29:54,629 --> 01:29:52,320 continue to remain anonymous and who i 2548 01:29:59,189 --> 01:29:54,639 will protect to the end of my days 2549 01:30:02,629 --> 01:29:59,199 who engaged with me at nat's instigation 2550 01:30:03,750 --> 01:30:02,639 and one of them had been invited onto 2551 01:30:06,229 --> 01:30:03,760 the program 2552 01:30:08,310 --> 01:30:06,239 and had declined but he described the 2553 01:30:11,030 --> 01:30:08,320 process by which people were invited 2554 01:30:13,750 --> 01:30:11,040 onto the program 2555 01:30:15,430 --> 01:30:13,760 and others had been brought into the 2556 01:30:18,070 --> 01:30:15,440 program and were operating 2557 01:30:19,590 --> 01:30:18,080 in compartmentalized areas of the 2558 01:30:21,669 --> 01:30:19,600 program 2559 01:30:23,030 --> 01:30:21,679 but i was left in no doubt whatsoever 2560 01:30:25,189 --> 01:30:23,040 that there was 2561 01:30:27,750 --> 01:30:25,199 a program that the united states 2562 01:30:30,310 --> 01:30:27,760 government was and is actively involved 2563 01:30:32,629 --> 01:30:30,320 in an effort to 2564 01:30:35,189 --> 01:30:32,639 re-engineer or back engineer what it 2565 01:30:37,510 --> 01:30:35,199 thinks is alien technology 2566 01:30:39,030 --> 01:30:37,520 and so the admissions that have been 2567 01:30:42,629 --> 01:30:39,040 made by 2568 01:30:45,270 --> 01:30:42,639 eric davis louis zondo chris mullen 2569 01:30:48,310 --> 01:30:45,280 and others privately to me take on 2570 01:30:50,149 --> 01:30:48,320 special importance when i hear 2571 01:30:52,070 --> 01:30:50,159 what they're saying and compare it to 2572 01:30:55,430 --> 01:30:52,080 what i was told by a man 2573 01:30:57,270 --> 01:30:55,440 who had absolutely no reason to lie 2574 01:30:59,590 --> 01:30:57,280 you know this poor fellow was dying from 2575 01:31:01,830 --> 01:30:59,600 a horrible cancer 2576 01:31:04,629 --> 01:31:01,840 and i think is one of the last gestures 2577 01:31:06,629 --> 01:31:04,639 that he wanted to make before he passed 2578 01:31:08,229 --> 01:31:06,639 he wanted to be truthful with the public 2579 01:31:10,070 --> 01:31:08,239 about something that he could see no 2580 01:31:11,270 --> 01:31:10,080 good reason to be kept confidential for 2581 01:31:12,550 --> 01:31:11,280 much longer 2582 01:31:14,629 --> 01:31:12,560 and i think that's where we're at at the 2583 01:31:16,709 --> 01:31:14,639 moment i i always 2584 01:31:18,709 --> 01:31:16,719 try and think the best of bureaucracies 2585 01:31:20,229 --> 01:31:18,719 and we have a saying in my line of work 2586 01:31:23,270 --> 01:31:20,239 which is always assume 2587 01:31:25,030 --> 01:31:23,280 a screw-up for a conspiracy 2588 01:31:27,030 --> 01:31:25,040 and so i think if there has been a 2589 01:31:30,070 --> 01:31:27,040 conspiracy to conceal 2590 01:31:31,270 --> 01:31:30,080 what's going on i think it's probably an 2591 01:31:34,310 --> 01:31:31,280 accumulation 2592 01:31:36,070 --> 01:31:34,320 of failures by different bureaucrats to 2593 01:31:38,149 --> 01:31:36,080 make a decision about something that was 2594 01:31:39,669 --> 01:31:38,159 difficult to make a decision about 2595 01:31:41,830 --> 01:31:39,679 it's better just to put it in the too 2596 01:31:43,430 --> 01:31:41,840 hard basket and to continue to ignore it 2597 01:31:45,350 --> 01:31:43,440 for another 10 years 2598 01:31:46,950 --> 01:31:45,360 than it is to come to the public and sit 2599 01:31:49,669 --> 01:31:46,960 down in the congress and say 2600 01:31:50,790 --> 01:31:49,679 to richard damatos or the the 2601 01:31:53,110 --> 01:31:50,800 christopher mellons 2602 01:31:55,510 --> 01:31:53,120 hey guys look we just want you to know 2603 01:31:57,189 --> 01:31:55,520 we've been lying to you for the last 76 2604 01:32:01,110 --> 01:31:57,199 years we did recover 2605 01:32:03,510 --> 01:32:01,120 like salsa at roswell in 1947 at del rio 2606 01:32:05,110 --> 01:32:03,520 and at aztec and look we've been trying 2607 01:32:07,590 --> 01:32:05,120 to rebuild the bloody things for the 2608 01:32:09,189 --> 01:32:07,600 last 76 years but it's buggering us and 2609 01:32:11,189 --> 01:32:09,199 we don't know how to do it but 2610 01:32:12,870 --> 01:32:11,199 look we think you should know we do have 2611 01:32:16,790 --> 01:32:12,880 this technology 2612 01:32:18,629 --> 01:32:16,800 i mean i i i have a hunch 2613 01:32:21,189 --> 01:32:18,639 that at some stage that might dribble 2614 01:32:23,030 --> 01:32:21,199 out uh and i think there's also 2615 01:32:24,870 --> 01:32:23,040 significance for what it's worth in the 2616 01:32:27,750 --> 01:32:24,880 doctor's salvatory pay 2617 01:32:29,750 --> 01:32:27,760 patents that the u.s navy has filed i 2618 01:32:31,510 --> 01:32:29,760 don't necessarily believe that the u.s 2619 01:32:33,590 --> 01:32:31,520 navy has actually achieved what it's 2620 01:32:34,550 --> 01:32:33,600 purported to achieve to the u.s patent 2621 01:32:37,110 --> 01:32:34,560 office 2622 01:32:38,950 --> 01:32:37,120 but i do think that it's interesting 2623 01:32:42,470 --> 01:32:38,960 that an effort has been made 2624 01:32:44,310 --> 01:32:42,480 at a point when it's known 2625 01:32:46,709 --> 01:32:44,320 that there's potentially going to be 2626 01:32:48,629 --> 01:32:46,719 disclosure in the congress 2627 01:32:50,709 --> 01:32:48,639 that the u.s navy has gone to the effort 2628 01:32:52,950 --> 01:32:50,719 of patenting this technology through 2629 01:32:54,470 --> 01:32:52,960 one of its doctors one of its senior 2630 01:32:57,590 --> 01:32:54,480 researchers 2631 01:32:58,709 --> 01:32:57,600 so i do think that we're slowly drifting 2632 01:33:01,189 --> 01:32:58,719 towards a point 2633 01:33:03,110 --> 01:33:01,199 where the public may learn something 2634 01:33:04,870 --> 01:33:03,120 very very interesting and i suspect that 2635 01:33:07,430 --> 01:33:04,880 might very well be that we learn 2636 01:33:08,870 --> 01:33:07,440 that we are not alone that there is an 2637 01:33:10,470 --> 01:33:08,880 advanced intelligence that's been 2638 01:33:12,310 --> 01:33:10,480 operating intelligence 2639 01:33:14,470 --> 01:33:12,320 and technology in our atmosphere that's 2640 01:33:16,790 --> 01:33:14,480 far more advanced than ours 2641 01:33:18,629 --> 01:33:16,800 but i'm not persuaded yet that we have 2642 01:33:22,229 --> 01:33:18,639 this technology 2643 01:33:23,830 --> 01:33:22,239 back engineered and developed to the 2644 01:33:26,870 --> 01:33:23,840 point where we can deploy it 2645 01:33:29,110 --> 01:33:26,880 and use it in our own militaries 2646 01:33:30,390 --> 01:33:29,120 back to the gentleman who called you how 2647 01:33:31,990 --> 01:33:30,400 long did you speak with him were you 2648 01:33:33,990 --> 01:33:32,000 and were you able to verify anything 2649 01:33:36,790 --> 01:33:34,000 that he said i mean did he tell you 2650 01:33:38,550 --> 01:33:36,800 what i worked i mean uh i i know where 2651 01:33:41,990 --> 01:33:38,560 he worked but i'm not going to reveal it 2652 01:33:45,189 --> 01:33:42,000 um i um i've since 2653 01:33:47,110 --> 01:33:45,199 verified his position in 2654 01:33:49,110 --> 01:33:47,120 the place where he works and the role 2655 01:33:50,790 --> 01:33:49,120 that he plays is not what he's actually 2656 01:33:54,310 --> 01:33:50,800 told me he does 2657 01:33:56,310 --> 01:33:54,320 and this is one of the things as the guy 2658 01:33:57,669 --> 01:33:56,320 who told me that he was invited into the 2659 01:34:00,870 --> 01:33:57,679 program told me 2660 01:34:04,629 --> 01:34:00,880 the way it works is he was invited 2661 01:34:07,510 --> 01:34:04,639 to the campus of the aerospace company 2662 01:34:07,990 --> 01:34:07,520 he's met at the door taken out into the 2663 01:34:10,870 --> 01:34:08,000 garden 2664 01:34:12,709 --> 01:34:10,880 they sit under a tree and he's basically 2665 01:34:14,790 --> 01:34:12,719 told that 2666 01:34:16,390 --> 01:34:14,800 the united states government is working 2667 01:34:19,270 --> 01:34:16,400 in the black on recovered 2668 01:34:20,070 --> 01:34:19,280 alien technology if he's invited into 2669 01:34:22,310 --> 01:34:20,080 the program 2670 01:34:23,510 --> 01:34:22,320 you take part he'll have an office in 2671 01:34:24,629 --> 01:34:23,520 this building here he'll have a 2672 01:34:26,709 --> 01:34:24,639 secretary 2673 01:34:28,070 --> 01:34:26,719 he'll take calls for him he'll put the 2674 01:34:29,669 --> 01:34:28,080 calls through to him but he won't be 2675 01:34:31,110 --> 01:34:29,679 working here he'll be working somewhere 2676 01:34:35,030 --> 01:34:31,120 else 2677 01:34:38,149 --> 01:34:35,040 uh that's the way it works and it's all 2678 01:34:41,350 --> 01:34:38,159 kept very much inside private aerospace 2679 01:34:42,070 --> 01:34:41,360 um uh they're not subject to the foi 2680 01:34:44,070 --> 01:34:42,080 laws 2681 01:34:45,990 --> 01:34:44,080 uh they're hidden behind multiple 2682 01:34:47,430 --> 01:34:46,000 special access programs that are waived 2683 01:34:49,350 --> 01:34:47,440 and unacknowledged 2684 01:34:51,510 --> 01:34:49,360 most congressmen most senators had 2685 01:34:54,470 --> 01:34:51,520 absolutely no idea of it 2686 01:34:56,629 --> 01:34:54,480 that's the way it was described to me um 2687 01:34:58,709 --> 01:34:56,639 yes i did verify what those people told 2688 01:35:00,149 --> 01:34:58,719 me because i believe what nick hobitz 2689 01:35:01,990 --> 01:35:00,159 told me was a verification 2690 01:35:03,750 --> 01:35:02,000 and i've spoken since to other people 2691 01:35:04,950 --> 01:35:03,760 who report who've been involved in the 2692 01:35:06,950 --> 01:35:04,960 program 2693 01:35:08,629 --> 01:35:06,960 who also verified to me their 2694 01:35:10,790 --> 01:35:08,639 involvement in different aspects 2695 01:35:12,310 --> 01:35:10,800 very heavily compartmentalized areas of 2696 01:35:13,510 --> 01:35:12,320 the program where for example they're 2697 01:35:16,149 --> 01:35:13,520 working on 2698 01:35:16,629 --> 01:35:16,159 for example a piece of technology that 2699 01:35:19,750 --> 01:35:16,639 they 2700 01:35:22,550 --> 01:35:19,760 surmise probably came from 2701 01:35:24,470 --> 01:35:22,560 something that is not human i mean 2702 01:35:26,950 --> 01:35:24,480 imagine being given a mobile phone in 2703 01:35:30,229 --> 01:35:26,960 the 15th century and asked to 2704 01:35:32,390 --> 01:35:30,239 replicate that mobile phone how would 2705 01:35:34,390 --> 01:35:32,400 you even begin to do that 2706 01:35:36,870 --> 01:35:34,400 you know the the technology of silicon 2707 01:35:40,310 --> 01:35:36,880 chips the microscopic 2708 01:35:42,229 --> 01:35:40,320 uh circuitry of an integrated circuit 2709 01:35:44,950 --> 01:35:42,239 how would anybody in elizabeth england 2710 01:35:47,350 --> 01:35:44,960 even be able to understand that 2711 01:35:49,030 --> 01:35:47,360 and i think that's if if this is the 2712 01:35:50,229 --> 01:35:49,040 case if we have recovered this 2713 01:35:55,350 --> 01:35:50,239 technology 2714 01:35:55,990 --> 01:35:55,360 i sincerely hope that there have been 2715 01:35:58,310 --> 01:35:56,000 breakthroughs 2716 01:35:59,430 --> 01:35:58,320 in the black that i i'm led to the 2717 01:36:02,149 --> 01:35:59,440 belief 2718 01:36:03,830 --> 01:36:02,159 as eric davis has inferred that it 2719 01:36:05,109 --> 01:36:03,840 hasn't happened yet 2720 01:36:06,550 --> 01:36:05,119 and maybe that's why there's a 2721 01:36:07,910 --> 01:36:06,560 difference about telling the public 2722 01:36:10,149 --> 01:36:07,920 about it because 2723 01:36:11,430 --> 01:36:10,159 you're losing a strategic advantage by 2724 01:36:14,550 --> 01:36:11,440 being forced 2725 01:36:17,669 --> 01:36:14,560 to talk about it or maybe i mean 2726 01:36:20,790 --> 01:36:17,679 i'm fascinated by the work of dr lee 2727 01:36:22,830 --> 01:36:20,800 a chinese physicist who for a while was 2728 01:36:24,790 --> 01:36:22,840 operating out of huntsville in 2729 01:36:26,470 --> 01:36:24,800 alabama she's kind of dropped off the 2730 01:36:28,070 --> 01:36:26,480 radar she seems to be now working with 2731 01:36:30,390 --> 01:36:28,080 the chinese government 2732 01:36:31,669 --> 01:36:30,400 but for a while she was working with 2733 01:36:33,750 --> 01:36:31,679 your defence department 2734 01:36:36,950 --> 01:36:33,760 in huntsville alabama working on 2735 01:36:39,510 --> 01:36:36,960 anti-gravity research and talking about 2736 01:36:41,510 --> 01:36:39,520 uh implied imminent advances in 2737 01:36:42,950 --> 01:36:41,520 anti-gravity propulsion technology that 2738 01:36:45,030 --> 01:36:42,960 were just around the pool but like 2739 01:36:47,189 --> 01:36:45,040 america was talking about in the 2740 01:36:49,030 --> 01:36:47,199 in the 50s and the 60s and that it all 2741 01:36:53,030 --> 01:36:49,040 also went black 2742 01:36:56,470 --> 01:36:53,040 um if i was america and i knew that 2743 01:36:58,709 --> 01:36:56,480 china was working in the black 2744 01:37:00,390 --> 01:36:58,719 in super secrecy rushing to try and 2745 01:37:02,070 --> 01:37:00,400 develop this technology well the first 2746 01:37:03,030 --> 01:37:02,080 thing i'd be trying to make sure of is 2747 01:37:05,109 --> 01:37:03,040 that 2748 01:37:07,270 --> 01:37:05,119 if the chinese have this breakthrough 2749 01:37:09,030 --> 01:37:07,280 that we also have the right to use this 2750 01:37:11,990 --> 01:37:09,040 intellectual property ourselves 2751 01:37:13,590 --> 01:37:12,000 hence the salvatory pay patents you 2752 01:37:15,990 --> 01:37:13,600 don't want to have to pay the chinese 2753 01:37:17,270 --> 01:37:16,000 the humiliation of paying one of your 2754 01:37:20,790 --> 01:37:17,280 foreign rivals 2755 01:37:22,629 --> 01:37:20,800 to use this technology would be too much 2756 01:37:23,910 --> 01:37:22,639 but i would also try and keep it secret 2757 01:37:27,030 --> 01:37:23,920 as long as possible 2758 01:37:27,990 --> 01:37:27,040 and maybe this is the arrogance of us in 2759 01:37:31,189 --> 01:37:28,000 the um 2760 01:37:32,790 --> 01:37:31,199 the world of uap research that we think 2761 01:37:35,109 --> 01:37:32,800 that governments ought to and 2762 01:37:36,950 --> 01:37:35,119 should properly reveal this when they 2763 01:37:39,189 --> 01:37:36,960 come to know about it 2764 01:37:39,990 --> 01:37:39,199 i'm asking the question maybe there is a 2765 01:37:43,510 --> 01:37:40,000 good reason 2766 01:37:46,550 --> 01:37:43,520 why it's being kept secret um i like to 2767 01:37:49,669 --> 01:37:46,560 think the best of these people you know 2768 01:37:51,669 --> 01:37:49,679 but if it is being kept secret why 2769 01:37:55,430 --> 01:37:51,679 let's assume admiral tom wilson for 2770 01:37:57,990 --> 01:37:55,440 example was being lied to 2771 01:37:58,470 --> 01:37:58,000 if it is the case that the j-2 the 2772 01:38:00,310 --> 01:37:58,480 person 2773 01:38:01,510 --> 01:38:00,320 briefing the joint chiefs of staff and 2774 01:38:04,229 --> 01:38:01,520 intelligence matters 2775 01:38:06,229 --> 01:38:04,239 is being lied to about a secret ufo 2776 01:38:09,430 --> 01:38:06,239 re-engineering program 2777 01:38:09,990 --> 01:38:09,440 why the hell would you do that you know 2778 01:38:13,189 --> 01:38:10,000 what's the 2779 01:38:15,350 --> 01:38:13,199 that secret 2780 01:38:17,270 --> 01:38:15,360 what's why the obsessive secrecy this is 2781 01:38:19,189 --> 01:38:17,280 what i don't understand 2782 01:38:21,990 --> 01:38:19,199 but one of the things i am very very 2783 01:38:23,590 --> 01:38:22,000 sure of is that there is a cover-up 2784 01:38:25,350 --> 01:38:23,600 there are individuals that have gone 2785 01:38:27,750 --> 01:38:25,360 around threatening people trying to shut 2786 01:38:29,830 --> 01:38:27,760 it down 2787 01:38:30,870 --> 01:38:29,840 there are lies that have been told to 2788 01:38:34,149 --> 01:38:30,880 protect this 2789 01:38:37,030 --> 01:38:34,159 uh something's going on 2790 01:38:37,270 --> 01:38:37,040 and i'm genuinely trying to understand 2791 01:38:39,590 --> 01:38:37,280 it 2792 01:38:41,030 --> 01:38:39,600 and i'm puzzled and the interesting 2793 01:38:43,030 --> 01:38:41,040 thing is that if i was 2794 01:38:46,870 --> 01:38:43,040 the person that's the gatekeeper of this 2795 01:38:48,390 --> 01:38:46,880 secret i would now be incredibly nervous 2796 01:38:50,229 --> 01:38:48,400 let's talk for a moment for example 2797 01:38:51,669 --> 01:38:50,239 about the admiral wilson document yes 2798 01:38:54,070 --> 01:38:51,679 that's one thing i want to get to before 2799 01:38:56,070 --> 01:38:54,080 we get before we end in 20 minutes 2800 01:38:57,109 --> 01:38:56,080 yeah sure i mean it will be a real 2801 01:38:58,950 --> 01:38:57,119 document but i 2802 01:39:00,870 --> 01:38:58,960 i mean i think there's a lot of 2803 01:39:02,470 --> 01:39:00,880 questions that still need to be answered 2804 01:39:04,709 --> 01:39:02,480 about that document 2805 01:39:06,149 --> 01:39:04,719 i know for a fact that it came from the 2806 01:39:07,990 --> 01:39:06,159 estate of the late 2807 01:39:10,550 --> 01:39:08,000 edgar mitchell because i've spoken to 2808 01:39:11,590 --> 01:39:10,560 the guy who literally has it sitting in 2809 01:39:14,310 --> 01:39:11,600 his archive 2810 01:39:15,669 --> 01:39:14,320 and he got it directly from edgar 2811 01:39:19,030 --> 01:39:15,679 mitchell's home 2812 01:39:21,750 --> 01:39:19,040 with mitch harkins and his nephew who 2813 01:39:22,709 --> 01:39:21,760 saved the files from edgar's filing 2814 01:39:25,750 --> 01:39:22,719 cabinet 2815 01:39:25,990 --> 01:39:25,760 and that document eric davis you know 2816 01:39:30,310 --> 01:39:26,000 his 2817 01:39:32,390 --> 01:39:30,320 admiral tom wilson at the 2818 01:39:34,629 --> 01:39:32,400 defense intelligence organization in 2819 01:39:37,910 --> 01:39:34,639 2002 in las vegas 2820 01:39:40,629 --> 01:39:37,920 those alleged notes um 2821 01:39:42,149 --> 01:39:40,639 were in the archives of dr edgar 2822 01:39:45,669 --> 01:39:42,159 mitchell that he'd been sent 2823 01:39:48,310 --> 01:39:45,679 by hul put off from the national 2824 01:39:51,109 --> 01:39:48,320 institute of discovery science 2825 01:39:52,149 --> 01:39:51,119 when it was on the science advisory 2826 01:39:55,669 --> 01:39:52,159 board of 2827 01:39:57,830 --> 01:39:55,679 nibs and uh there's a huge body here 2828 01:39:58,709 --> 01:39:57,840 archival evidence called the fact that 2829 01:40:00,870 --> 01:39:58,719 there was a 2830 01:40:01,750 --> 01:40:00,880 a previous and ongoing relationship 2831 01:40:03,910 --> 01:40:01,760 between hull 2832 01:40:05,270 --> 01:40:03,920 and where documents were shared from 2833 01:40:07,669 --> 01:40:05,280 within them 2834 01:40:08,790 --> 01:40:07,679 to individual which some of which i'll 2835 01:40:10,629 --> 01:40:08,800 be 2836 01:40:12,310 --> 01:40:10,639 revealing and releasing in the next few 2837 01:40:14,149 --> 01:40:12,320 months um they make 2838 01:40:15,350 --> 01:40:14,159 really interesting reading they show 2839 01:40:17,830 --> 01:40:15,360 that it 2840 01:40:19,430 --> 01:40:17,840 it was being briefed by hal put off 2841 01:40:23,270 --> 01:40:19,440 about discoveries that 2842 01:40:26,390 --> 01:40:23,280 bigelow's was making and um 2843 01:40:27,510 --> 01:40:26,400 it's fascinating and and one of the one 2844 01:40:31,990 --> 01:40:27,520 of the things that 2845 01:40:36,070 --> 01:40:34,310 hal put off clearly thought that this 2846 01:40:37,189 --> 01:40:36,080 document was so significant that he 2847 01:40:40,229 --> 01:40:37,199 should send it to 2848 01:40:41,750 --> 01:40:40,239 an astronaut who quite openly talked 2849 01:40:43,430 --> 01:40:41,760 about the fact that he thought the u.s 2850 01:40:45,510 --> 01:40:43,440 government was concealing 2851 01:40:47,830 --> 01:40:45,520 a secret about recovered 2852 01:40:51,430 --> 01:40:47,840 extraterrestrial spacecraft 2853 01:40:54,629 --> 01:40:51,440 and edgar told my source 2854 01:40:56,950 --> 01:40:54,639 space man the keeper of the archive that 2855 01:40:59,109 --> 01:40:56,960 as an astronaut he was told it was 2856 01:41:00,550 --> 01:40:59,119 treason to talk about what he knew and 2857 01:41:02,390 --> 01:41:00,560 what he saw 2858 01:41:03,990 --> 01:41:02,400 during the apollo mission but it was 2859 01:41:08,070 --> 01:41:04,000 quite clear that edgar 2860 01:41:11,350 --> 01:41:08,080 was apprised of a whole world 2861 01:41:14,709 --> 01:41:11,360 of us efforts to recover 2862 01:41:16,470 --> 01:41:14,719 craft and to back engineer craft 2863 01:41:18,470 --> 01:41:16,480 and he strongly believed that there was 2864 01:41:19,669 --> 01:41:18,480 an extraterrestrial presence on planet 2865 01:41:22,870 --> 01:41:19,679 earth 2866 01:41:25,189 --> 01:41:22,880 and so let's come to that memo if the 2867 01:41:27,669 --> 01:41:25,199 memo's contents are true and i emphasize 2868 01:41:29,750 --> 01:41:27,679 admiral tom wilson retired of the dia 2869 01:41:31,350 --> 01:41:29,760 says that they are not true that the 2870 01:41:33,189 --> 01:41:31,360 document is a fabrication 2871 01:41:35,270 --> 01:41:33,199 it never happened we never had a meeting 2872 01:41:38,790 --> 01:41:35,280 with dr eric davis 2873 01:41:41,350 --> 01:41:38,800 in las vegas in 2002 met the guy 2874 01:41:43,350 --> 01:41:41,360 but if the document is true it means 2875 01:41:45,830 --> 01:41:43,360 that there is an aerospace company 2876 01:41:47,669 --> 01:41:45,840 that in the black behind multiple 2877 01:41:51,750 --> 01:41:47,679 special access programs 2878 01:41:53,669 --> 01:41:51,760 is concealing recovered alien technology 2879 01:41:55,830 --> 01:41:53,679 which has been kept secret from most of 2880 01:41:58,070 --> 01:41:55,840 the congress most of the military 2881 01:41:59,109 --> 01:41:58,080 and so much so that even the joint 2882 01:42:03,990 --> 01:41:59,119 chiefs of staff 2883 01:42:09,430 --> 01:42:07,350 i'm fascinated because to me 2884 01:42:11,430 --> 01:42:09,440 it represents the most plausible way 2885 01:42:11,990 --> 01:42:11,440 that you could keep something like this 2886 01:42:14,790 --> 01:42:12,000 secret 2887 01:42:16,310 --> 01:42:14,800 if that document is genuine and the 2888 01:42:19,350 --> 01:42:16,320 interesting thing about it to me 2889 01:42:23,430 --> 01:42:19,360 is that the players eric davis 2890 01:42:26,070 --> 01:42:23,440 hal put off you know everybody involved 2891 01:42:27,510 --> 01:42:26,080 in that document with the exclusion of 2892 01:42:30,629 --> 01:42:27,520 admiral tom wilson 2893 01:42:33,830 --> 01:42:30,639 has conspicuously not 2894 01:42:34,950 --> 01:42:33,840 denied its prominence you know they've 2895 01:42:37,270 --> 01:42:34,960 actually 2896 01:42:38,070 --> 01:42:37,280 done nothing they've done everything if 2897 01:42:40,950 --> 01:42:38,080 you like to 2898 01:42:42,310 --> 01:42:40,960 avoid confirming its contents but they 2899 01:42:45,510 --> 01:42:42,320 haven't said it's not 2900 01:42:46,070 --> 01:42:45,520 a real document and that's conspicuous 2901 01:42:48,470 --> 01:42:46,080 to me 2902 01:42:50,070 --> 01:42:48,480 and i i i think there's also been 2903 01:42:51,750 --> 01:42:50,080 acknowledgements by how put off that 2904 01:42:55,030 --> 01:42:51,760 eric davis did 2905 01:42:58,470 --> 01:42:55,040 meet with um 2906 01:42:59,030 --> 01:42:58,480 admiral tom wilson so i don't know what 2907 01:43:01,189 --> 01:42:59,040 to think 2908 01:43:03,030 --> 01:43:01,199 but the bottom line is if that document 2909 01:43:06,149 --> 01:43:03,040 is genuine then it represents 2910 01:43:07,189 --> 01:43:06,159 a perfect explanation for what's going 2911 01:43:09,669 --> 01:43:07,199 on 2912 01:43:10,629 --> 01:43:09,679 that there are people in private 2913 01:43:12,390 --> 01:43:10,639 aerospace 2914 01:43:14,790 --> 01:43:12,400 who are the gatekeepers to this 2915 01:43:17,109 --> 01:43:14,800 information they've been hiding it 2916 01:43:18,629 --> 01:43:17,119 probably since it was passed out of the 2917 01:43:22,870 --> 01:43:18,639 doe when the doe 2918 01:43:25,109 --> 01:43:22,880 came subject to foi laws in the 1970s 2919 01:43:26,470 --> 01:43:25,119 that's the department of energy and if 2920 01:43:28,229 --> 01:43:26,480 you think about it the best place to 2921 01:43:29,910 --> 01:43:28,239 hide this would have been inside the 2922 01:43:30,870 --> 01:43:29,920 department of energy which handles all 2923 01:43:32,550 --> 01:43:30,880 of your 2924 01:43:33,990 --> 01:43:32,560 nuclear weapons and nuclear power 2925 01:43:37,030 --> 01:43:34,000 technology 2926 01:43:38,149 --> 01:43:37,040 so if you were trying to keep something 2927 01:43:39,990 --> 01:43:38,159 super super secret 2928 01:43:41,669 --> 01:43:40,000 inside the american government you'd 2929 01:43:42,629 --> 01:43:41,679 actually keep it outside of even the 2930 01:43:45,669 --> 01:43:42,639 military 2931 01:43:46,390 --> 01:43:45,679 special access program protections you'd 2932 01:43:48,310 --> 01:43:46,400 keep it 2933 01:43:49,830 --> 01:43:48,320 maybe under acute clearance in the 2934 01:43:51,669 --> 01:43:49,840 department of energy 2935 01:43:53,669 --> 01:43:51,679 and certainly you'd have to have one or 2936 01:43:55,109 --> 01:43:53,679 two key military officials who were 2937 01:43:57,270 --> 01:43:55,119 briefed into this but 2938 01:43:59,109 --> 01:43:57,280 maybe you keep them at the level of the 2939 01:43:59,910 --> 01:43:59,119 senior review group of the special 2940 01:44:02,390 --> 01:43:59,920 access program 2941 01:44:04,310 --> 01:44:02,400 oversight committee orally brief them 2942 01:44:05,669 --> 01:44:04,320 have files that are completely separate 2943 01:44:07,510 --> 01:44:05,679 from the mainframe 2944 01:44:10,149 --> 01:44:07,520 and oddly enough that's what the admiral 2945 01:44:11,750 --> 01:44:10,159 tom wilson document describes 2946 01:44:13,189 --> 01:44:11,760 i mean the level of knowledge that's 2947 01:44:15,669 --> 01:44:13,199 required for somebody to have 2948 01:44:17,669 --> 01:44:15,679 constructed a hoax document like that 2949 01:44:18,870 --> 01:44:17,679 and to have had the names that it's got 2950 01:44:20,629 --> 01:44:18,880 within it 2951 01:44:22,310 --> 01:44:20,639 who were people who were operating at 2952 01:44:26,390 --> 01:44:22,320 the time it's a 2953 01:44:28,629 --> 01:44:26,400 masterful hoax if it's a hoax and 2954 01:44:30,790 --> 01:44:28,639 that's why i give credibility to the 2955 01:44:32,149 --> 01:44:30,800 admiral wilson document because i'm 2956 01:44:34,790 --> 01:44:32,159 aware of its providence 2957 01:44:37,669 --> 01:44:34,800 nobody else is you know i know that it 2958 01:44:39,270 --> 01:44:37,679 was in by hell put off 2959 01:44:41,430 --> 01:44:39,280 to edgar mitchell and that edgar 2960 01:44:43,430 --> 01:44:41,440 mitchell regarded it as so important 2961 01:44:44,950 --> 01:44:43,440 he literally stuffed it in his archive 2962 01:44:46,709 --> 01:44:44,960 files right next to 2963 01:44:49,430 --> 01:44:46,719 other documents that he received from 2964 01:44:50,950 --> 01:44:49,440 nibs and he attached great significance 2965 01:44:53,910 --> 01:44:50,960 to it and made sure that it was 2966 01:44:58,790 --> 01:44:53,920 protected and passed on after he died 2967 01:45:01,990 --> 01:45:00,070 the interesting thing though in that 2968 01:45:05,750 --> 01:45:02,000 document is there's no explanation 2969 01:45:07,910 --> 01:45:05,760 as to why it's been kept secret 2970 01:45:09,189 --> 01:45:07,920 i mean why let's assume the us has 2971 01:45:12,070 --> 01:45:09,199 recovered 2972 01:45:15,270 --> 01:45:12,080 alien technology and let's assume that 2973 01:45:18,470 --> 01:45:15,280 they haven't been able to replicate it 2974 01:45:20,709 --> 01:45:18,480 there comes a point i think where 2975 01:45:22,629 --> 01:45:20,719 they're just going to have to admit it 2976 01:45:24,550 --> 01:45:22,639 you know what what is the strategic 2977 01:45:26,470 --> 01:45:24,560 national security advantage in not 2978 01:45:28,950 --> 01:45:26,480 revealing it 2979 01:45:29,990 --> 01:45:28,960 unless we're on the cusp of a 2980 01:45:32,390 --> 01:45:30,000 breakthrough unless we're 2981 01:45:33,669 --> 01:45:32,400 on a cusp of finally achieving this 2982 01:45:37,270 --> 01:45:33,679 technology 2983 01:45:38,950 --> 01:45:37,280 and being able to show our rivals our 2984 01:45:40,709 --> 01:45:38,960 enemies that they can't 2985 01:45:43,750 --> 01:45:40,719 sprew with us because we actually have a 2986 01:45:45,830 --> 01:45:43,760 technology that is far beyond theirs 2987 01:45:48,149 --> 01:45:45,840 that's about the only plausible reason 2988 01:45:52,390 --> 01:45:48,159 that i can see for maintaining the 2989 01:45:54,629 --> 01:45:52,400 the secret uh if it's inconvenient 2990 01:45:55,990 --> 01:45:54,639 to the u.s air force or people inside 2991 01:45:57,590 --> 01:45:56,000 the u.s air force and 2992 01:45:59,189 --> 01:45:57,600 certain elements of the intelligence 2993 01:46:00,629 --> 01:45:59,199 services to reveal this because it's 2994 01:46:02,310 --> 01:46:00,639 kind of embarrassing to them 2995 01:46:05,350 --> 01:46:02,320 because it shows they've been 2996 01:46:06,790 --> 01:46:05,360 dishonorable men by lying 2997 01:46:08,390 --> 01:46:06,800 you know this that comes 2998 01:46:10,310 --> 01:46:08,400 through in the tom the long 2999 01:46:12,070 --> 01:46:10,320 interviews where tom says that they said 3000 01:46:14,950 --> 01:46:12,080 they were protecting the republic 3001 01:46:18,709 --> 01:46:14,960 by not revealing the secret in what way 3002 01:46:21,750 --> 01:46:20,229 you know i think that has to be 3003 01:46:25,910 --> 01:46:21,760 explained 3004 01:46:27,270 --> 01:46:25,920 and um i i think one of the things that 3005 01:46:29,990 --> 01:46:27,280 is going on at the moment 3006 01:46:30,629 --> 01:46:30,000 is whoever it is that is controlling the 3007 01:46:34,390 --> 01:46:30,639 secret 3008 01:46:36,629 --> 01:46:34,400 is trying to constrain the narrative um 3009 01:46:38,790 --> 01:46:36,639 i think they're hoping they can get away 3010 01:46:41,750 --> 01:46:38,800 with not revealing 3011 01:46:43,189 --> 01:46:41,760 recovered technology and i think it's 3012 01:46:44,709 --> 01:46:43,199 inconvenient to them 3013 01:46:46,709 --> 01:46:44,719 for there to be a discussion about 3014 01:46:48,950 --> 01:46:46,719 recovered technology 3015 01:46:50,950 --> 01:46:48,960 and i suspect that's part of the reason 3016 01:46:52,310 --> 01:46:50,960 why things have gone a little bit cold 3017 01:46:54,149 --> 01:46:52,320 because they were thinking they could 3018 01:46:56,950 --> 01:46:54,159 control the narrative 3019 01:46:58,870 --> 01:46:56,960 by revealing the uap task force is 3020 01:46:59,830 --> 01:46:58,880 giving credibility to this enormous 3021 01:47:02,229 --> 01:46:59,840 phenomenon 3022 01:47:03,910 --> 01:47:02,239 and saying wow yes we are going to 3023 01:47:06,390 --> 01:47:03,920 investigate this which essentially 3024 01:47:07,669 --> 01:47:06,400 really is just a recap of what happened 3025 01:47:10,229 --> 01:47:07,679 in the 1950s 3026 01:47:11,669 --> 01:47:10,239 the 1960s with project grudge and 3027 01:47:14,229 --> 01:47:11,679 project blue book 3028 01:47:15,750 --> 01:47:14,239 you know all it is is promises from the 3029 01:47:17,830 --> 01:47:15,760 us military that it's going to 3030 01:47:19,830 --> 01:47:17,840 investigate aerial phenomena 3031 01:47:21,750 --> 01:47:19,840 and that it's a mystery and that it's 3032 01:47:23,030 --> 01:47:21,760 real and that it's a potential national 3033 01:47:24,709 --> 01:47:23,040 security concern 3034 01:47:27,430 --> 01:47:24,719 that is no different from what was 3035 01:47:31,750 --> 01:47:27,440 happening 60 seventy years ago 3036 01:47:37,189 --> 01:47:34,870 and just my personal you know you know 3037 01:47:38,550 --> 01:47:37,199 my personal opinion on the wilson davis 3038 01:47:39,830 --> 01:47:38,560 document 3039 01:47:41,830 --> 01:47:39,840 you know i met eric davis a couple of 3040 01:47:43,109 --> 01:47:41,840 years ago i met will miller in 2000. 3041 01:47:44,950 --> 01:47:43,119 those are two of the three 3042 01:47:47,830 --> 01:47:44,960 three people mentioned in the document 3043 01:47:50,149 --> 01:47:47,840 um eric davis has never told me anything 3044 01:47:51,830 --> 01:47:50,159 he said no comment i interviewed will 3045 01:47:53,189 --> 01:47:51,840 miller will miller denied that the 3046 01:47:54,709 --> 01:47:53,199 letter in there was his letter he said 3047 01:47:56,070 --> 01:47:54,719 it was a cut and paste job but when i 3048 01:47:57,669 --> 01:47:56,080 interviewed him 3049 01:47:59,590 --> 01:47:57,679 he did not want to comment about the 3050 01:48:01,030 --> 01:47:59,600 letter which is very telling to me 3051 01:48:03,510 --> 01:48:01,040 um there's other things he could have 3052 01:48:05,270 --> 01:48:03,520 said to and i know joe as well one of 3053 01:48:07,030 --> 01:48:05,280 the things that admiral tom wilson 3054 01:48:09,750 --> 01:48:07,040 actually says in that memo 3055 01:48:11,750 --> 01:48:09,760 reportedly is that if he's ever asked 3056 01:48:14,310 --> 01:48:11,760 about this he would lie about it 3057 01:48:15,750 --> 01:48:14,320 because any honorable officer and i'm 3058 01:48:18,550 --> 01:48:15,760 told tom's a good man 3059 01:48:20,709 --> 01:48:18,560 he's an honorable decent fella any 3060 01:48:23,750 --> 01:48:20,719 honorable person 3061 01:48:26,310 --> 01:48:23,760 tasked with the deed of protecting this 3062 01:48:29,750 --> 01:48:26,320 impulsive national security secret 3063 01:48:30,550 --> 01:48:29,760 has to lie about no i agree and when i 3064 01:48:32,470 --> 01:48:30,560 say 3065 01:48:33,990 --> 01:48:32,480 yeah i mean it's a it's a program he 3066 01:48:34,709 --> 01:48:34,000 can't acknowledge it and when i say he's 3067 01:48:37,270 --> 01:48:34,719 lying i don't 3068 01:48:39,189 --> 01:48:37,280 i don't ever i never say it in some 3069 01:48:39,830 --> 01:48:39,199 negative way he has to do what he has to 3070 01:48:41,510 --> 01:48:39,840 do 3071 01:48:43,669 --> 01:48:41,520 i've seen other things other people have 3072 01:48:45,109 --> 01:48:43,679 shown me things that convince me 3073 01:48:47,270 --> 01:48:45,119 beyond a reasonable doubt that it's a 3074 01:48:49,430 --> 01:48:47,280 legitimate document whether or not 3075 01:48:50,629 --> 01:48:49,440 what's in the document is real well then 3076 01:48:50,870 --> 01:48:50,639 we talked about you know then we talked 3077 01:48:54,629 --> 01:48:50,880 to 3078 01:48:57,350 --> 01:48:54,639 think we have a craft 3079 01:48:58,550 --> 01:48:57,360 um i don't think the document is a movie 3080 01:49:00,709 --> 01:48:58,560 script i don't think 3081 01:49:02,229 --> 01:49:00,719 as somebody suggested eric davis was 3082 01:49:04,629 --> 01:49:02,239 fooled by an imposter 3083 01:49:06,070 --> 01:49:04,639 who only looked like admiral wilson some 3084 01:49:06,950 --> 01:49:06,080 big name in our community and i won't 3085 01:49:09,830 --> 01:49:06,960 mention them there 3086 01:49:10,950 --> 01:49:09,840 here has recommended suggested that so 3087 01:49:13,990 --> 01:49:10,960 that's crazy to me 3088 01:49:15,990 --> 01:49:14,000 um so i do believe that um 3089 01:49:18,470 --> 01:49:16,000 but one thing that you wrote about which 3090 01:49:22,229 --> 01:49:18,480 i am amazed nobody has pointed out 3091 01:49:24,870 --> 01:49:22,239 oak shannon in billy cox interviewed 3092 01:49:26,550 --> 01:49:24,880 wilson a few years ago and he goes 3093 01:49:28,149 --> 01:49:26,560 he interviewed oak shannon and oak 3094 01:49:28,550 --> 01:49:28,159 shannon who was friends with eric davis 3095 01:49:29,910 --> 01:49:28,560 who 3096 01:49:32,229 --> 01:49:29,920 helped set up the meeting with tom 3097 01:49:34,470 --> 01:49:32,239 wilson he said 3098 01:49:35,270 --> 01:49:34,480 oak shannon said if i've i know both of 3099 01:49:37,750 --> 01:49:35,280 those gentlemen 3100 01:49:38,870 --> 01:49:37,760 and if i've caused any embarrassment to 3101 01:49:41,109 --> 01:49:38,880 admiral wilson 3102 01:49:42,790 --> 01:49:41,119 i apologize that wasn't my attention but 3103 01:49:44,070 --> 01:49:42,800 when you spoke to wilson when you got a 3104 01:49:44,870 --> 01:49:44,080 letter from wilson you could tell the 3105 01:49:46,950 --> 01:49:44,880 story 3106 01:49:49,109 --> 01:49:46,960 you know i was under the impression he 3107 01:49:51,910 --> 01:49:49,119 knew oak shannon pretty well 3108 01:49:52,790 --> 01:49:51,920 tom wilson basically denied knowing any 3109 01:49:55,589 --> 01:49:52,800 of these people 3110 01:49:56,070 --> 01:49:55,599 well at all and he basically led me to 3111 01:49:58,629 --> 01:49:56,080 the view 3112 01:50:00,390 --> 01:49:58,639 that um uh you know he didn't have 3113 01:50:01,189 --> 01:50:00,400 friendships with these people it wasn't 3114 01:50:03,430 --> 01:50:01,199 an issue 3115 01:50:06,310 --> 01:50:03,440 and it was quite clear from what oak 3116 01:50:09,669 --> 01:50:06,320 told billy cox the wonderful billy cox 3117 01:50:11,990 --> 01:50:09,679 that um uh that wasn't true um 3118 01:50:13,589 --> 01:50:12,000 that he did know them really well 3119 01:50:15,669 --> 01:50:13,599 particularly 3120 01:50:17,430 --> 01:50:15,679 and uh it was clear that the two of them 3121 01:50:18,149 --> 01:50:17,440 did have a friendship or some kind of 3122 01:50:20,470 --> 01:50:18,159 relationship 3123 01:50:21,750 --> 01:50:20,480 and both acknowledged that his response 3124 01:50:25,910 --> 01:50:21,760 to billy 3125 01:50:29,030 --> 01:50:25,920 so yeah i mean i i don't like speaking 3126 01:50:30,070 --> 01:50:29,040 ill of an american officer because i 3127 01:50:32,870 --> 01:50:30,080 can't understand 3128 01:50:34,950 --> 01:50:32,880 more tom wilson's motives but let's put 3129 01:50:37,830 --> 01:50:34,960 the best possible spin on it 3130 01:50:39,430 --> 01:50:37,840 um he's still bound by his national 3131 01:50:41,430 --> 01:50:39,440 security oath 3132 01:50:44,790 --> 01:50:41,440 he inadvertently because of his own 3133 01:50:46,950 --> 01:50:44,800 inquiries allegedly became aware of 3134 01:50:49,109 --> 01:50:46,960 a secret program that was being kept 3135 01:50:52,149 --> 01:50:49,119 secret even from the j-2 3136 01:50:53,830 --> 01:50:52,159 the joint chiefs of staff the person who 3137 01:50:55,510 --> 01:50:53,840 joined chiefs of staff on intelligent 3138 01:50:58,229 --> 01:50:55,520 matters um 3139 01:51:00,070 --> 01:50:58,239 he because of his perspective and his 3140 01:51:01,350 --> 01:51:00,080 diligence managed to discover this 3141 01:51:04,550 --> 01:51:01,360 secret 3142 01:51:07,750 --> 01:51:04,560 and for 3143 01:51:09,910 --> 01:51:07,760 let's assume for reasons of the good and 3144 01:51:11,270 --> 01:51:09,920 the public interest he decided to brief 3145 01:51:14,950 --> 01:51:11,280 eric davis 3146 01:51:17,189 --> 01:51:14,960 whom he knew was a person who was 3147 01:51:18,470 --> 01:51:17,199 operating under um all manner of 3148 01:51:20,870 --> 01:51:18,480 national security oaths 3149 01:51:23,350 --> 01:51:20,880 in the top sector security constraints 3150 01:51:25,189 --> 01:51:23,360 so he was well recommended by 3151 01:51:27,990 --> 01:51:25,199 oak and other people as a person of 3152 01:51:29,910 --> 01:51:28,000 trust and eric made it clear in his 3153 01:51:31,350 --> 01:51:29,920 exchange with him and he honored that 3154 01:51:33,109 --> 01:51:31,360 that he never intended for this 3155 01:51:34,709 --> 01:51:33,119 information to become public but it was 3156 01:51:37,350 --> 01:51:34,719 for his own research 3157 01:51:39,510 --> 01:51:37,360 i mean the way in which the memo became 3158 01:51:42,790 --> 01:51:39,520 public was completely inadvertent 3159 01:51:44,790 --> 01:51:42,800 because um uh you know 3160 01:51:46,149 --> 01:51:44,800 i i think when hull sent it to indian 3161 01:51:57,510 --> 01:51:46,159 literature it was clearly understood 3162 01:52:00,830 --> 01:51:59,030 he actually mentioned on several 3163 01:52:03,910 --> 01:52:00,840 occasions the fact that 3164 01:52:06,790 --> 01:52:03,920 um edgar mitchell did acknowledge 3165 01:52:08,709 --> 01:52:06,800 uh his awareness of the meeting between 3166 01:52:11,750 --> 01:52:08,719 a very senior pentagon official 3167 01:52:14,390 --> 01:52:11,760 and eric davis 3168 01:52:15,830 --> 01:52:14,400 uh in his lifetime so yeah i mean i 3169 01:52:17,430 --> 01:52:15,840 think there's a body of evidence there 3170 01:52:19,270 --> 01:52:17,440 that at the very least is worthy of 3171 01:52:21,350 --> 01:52:19,280 further investigation 3172 01:52:23,030 --> 01:52:21,360 and this is the difficulty imagine 3173 01:52:25,350 --> 01:52:23,040 you're the keeper of that secret 3174 01:52:26,070 --> 01:52:25,360 and you're now learning that elizondo 3175 01:52:29,830 --> 01:52:26,080 and melon 3176 01:52:32,310 --> 01:52:29,840 are speaking publicly about the covered 3177 01:52:34,149 --> 01:52:32,320 recovered advanced technology meta 3178 01:52:35,910 --> 01:52:34,159 materials that do astonishing things 3179 01:52:36,950 --> 01:52:35,920 when they have a waveform character 3180 01:52:40,070 --> 01:52:36,960 through them 3181 01:52:41,830 --> 01:52:40,080 um you'd freak because it might mean 3182 01:52:43,589 --> 01:52:41,840 that this cover-up of this 3183 01:52:46,070 --> 01:52:43,599 recovered technology is never going to 3184 01:52:48,229 --> 01:52:46,080 come up you can't control this narrative 3185 01:52:49,990 --> 01:52:48,239 but you don't want military witnesses 3186 01:52:52,629 --> 01:52:50,000 giving evidence at a congressional 3187 01:52:54,870 --> 01:52:52,639 inquiry that you can't control 3188 01:52:56,790 --> 01:52:54,880 and that's what i suspect is happening i 3189 01:52:57,270 --> 01:52:56,800 suspect that behind the scenes there are 3190 01:53:00,310 --> 01:52:57,280 people 3191 01:53:03,430 --> 01:53:00,320 who are determined to protect 3192 01:53:05,270 --> 01:53:03,440 this national security inheritance 3193 01:53:06,550 --> 01:53:05,280 who don't want to die they still think 3194 01:53:07,750 --> 01:53:06,560 it's inconvenient for this to be 3195 01:53:10,070 --> 01:53:07,760 revealed 3196 01:53:10,870 --> 01:53:10,080 and i'm not making excuses for them but 3197 01:53:12,550 --> 01:53:10,880 i can understand 3198 01:53:13,990 --> 01:53:12,560 why they might want to do that i don't 3199 01:53:15,669 --> 01:53:14,000 think it's sustainable 3200 01:53:18,390 --> 01:53:15,679 i think there's a momentum now the 3201 01:53:20,390 --> 01:53:18,400 genies out of the bottle 3202 01:53:22,470 --> 01:53:20,400 i agree they're putting the pressure on 3203 01:53:26,629 --> 01:53:22,480 history will judge 3204 01:53:28,550 --> 01:53:26,639 to do the right thing 3205 01:53:31,270 --> 01:53:28,560 let's assume for a moment that tom 3206 01:53:34,709 --> 01:53:31,280 wilson was one of the original muslim 3207 01:53:37,350 --> 01:53:34,719 in his own way inside the constraints 3208 01:53:39,189 --> 01:53:37,360 of his national security oath he felt 3209 01:53:40,470 --> 01:53:39,199 comfortable telling somebody like dr 3210 01:53:42,629 --> 01:53:40,480 eric davis 3211 01:53:43,669 --> 01:53:42,639 what he thought was the reality that he 3212 01:53:46,550 --> 01:53:43,679 discovered 3213 01:53:48,149 --> 01:53:46,560 he wanted an outside organization that 3214 01:53:50,870 --> 01:53:48,159 he viewed as responsible 3215 01:53:51,830 --> 01:53:50,880 and scientific to be aware of what he 3216 01:53:56,390 --> 01:53:51,840 knew 3217 01:53:58,310 --> 01:53:56,400 this film 3218 01:54:00,950 --> 01:53:58,320 i think history would judge him as a 3219 01:54:02,550 --> 01:54:00,960 patriot as a decent man 3220 01:54:04,310 --> 01:54:02,560 who within the constraints of his 3221 01:54:07,430 --> 01:54:04,320 national security guard 3222 01:54:09,109 --> 01:54:07,440 tried to do the right thing but i think 3223 01:54:10,629 --> 01:54:09,119 there are and i'm aware of these people 3224 01:54:11,350 --> 01:54:10,639 i've spoken to some of them i think 3225 01:54:14,390 --> 01:54:11,360 there are people 3226 01:54:17,990 --> 01:54:14,400 inside the program who similarly 3227 01:54:20,629 --> 01:54:18,000 question the utility of keeping it 3228 01:54:22,229 --> 01:54:20,639 secret and this is one of the issues 3229 01:54:24,229 --> 01:54:22,239 that you've been explaining to me 3230 01:54:26,709 --> 01:54:24,239 one scientist i spoke to explains to me 3231 01:54:28,790 --> 01:54:26,719 that a large part of the reason 3232 01:54:29,750 --> 01:54:28,800 why there hasn't been the kind of 3233 01:54:31,750 --> 01:54:29,760 breakthrough 3234 01:54:33,189 --> 01:54:31,760 in the propulsion technology that i 3235 01:54:36,390 --> 01:54:33,199 think the us 3236 01:54:40,030 --> 01:54:36,400 has been striving for over decades 3237 01:54:41,510 --> 01:54:40,040 is because the secret is so heavily 3238 01:54:44,390 --> 01:54:41,520 compartmentalized 3239 01:54:45,510 --> 01:54:44,400 it's so heavily constrained by security 3240 01:54:47,669 --> 01:54:45,520 constraints 3241 01:54:50,149 --> 01:54:47,679 that scientists can't do what scientists 3242 01:54:53,669 --> 01:54:50,159 normally do which is share information 3243 01:54:54,950 --> 01:54:53,679 exchange ideas chew the fat about a 3244 01:54:58,310 --> 01:54:54,960 problem 3245 01:55:01,189 --> 01:54:58,320 and i notice even lazar 3246 01:55:03,189 --> 01:55:01,199 bob lazar he's telling the truth i'm not 3247 01:55:04,950 --> 01:55:03,199 saying he is but let's say 3248 01:55:07,109 --> 01:55:04,960 assume for a moment that he is telling 3249 01:55:08,229 --> 01:55:07,119 the truth he was acknowledging that 3250 01:55:10,790 --> 01:55:08,239 there appeared to be 3251 01:55:11,990 --> 01:55:10,800 frustration uh in the efforts that were 3252 01:55:15,510 --> 01:55:12,000 being made 3253 01:55:17,109 --> 01:55:15,520 the mythical escort to reassemble the 3254 01:55:19,030 --> 01:55:17,119 technology or back engineer the 3255 01:55:20,790 --> 01:55:19,040 technology that was represented by what 3256 01:55:22,790 --> 01:55:20,800 he was asked to look at 3257 01:55:24,870 --> 01:55:22,800 um and that year that he came out is the 3258 01:55:26,390 --> 01:55:24,880 same year that in the document or no the 3259 01:55:27,109 --> 01:55:26,400 same year eric davis has said in 3260 01:55:29,109 --> 01:55:27,119 interviews 3261 01:55:30,709 --> 01:55:29,119 that's when the program was last put 3262 01:55:33,350 --> 01:55:30,719 away 89 which is 3263 01:55:34,229 --> 01:55:33,360 interesting and isn't it interesting 3264 01:55:37,510 --> 01:55:34,239 that probably 3265 01:55:38,310 --> 01:55:37,520 two years after the exposes by george 3266 01:55:40,629 --> 01:55:38,320 knapp 3267 01:55:41,430 --> 01:55:40,639 all of a sudden my sources in australia 3268 01:55:43,830 --> 01:55:41,440 start seeing 3269 01:55:45,990 --> 01:55:43,840 weird triangular objects hovering over 3270 01:55:48,149 --> 01:55:46,000 remote parts of american bases 3271 01:55:50,709 --> 01:55:48,159 in northwestern australia funny 3272 01:55:52,149 --> 01:55:50,719 coincidence huh 3273 01:55:53,830 --> 01:55:52,159 nice coincidence and i know you only 3274 01:55:56,149 --> 01:55:53,840 have five minutes left 3275 01:55:58,310 --> 01:55:56,159 what was it in the book what was not in 3276 01:56:00,310 --> 01:55:58,320 the book what have you learned since 3277 01:56:01,910 --> 01:56:00,320 then since you published that would just 3278 01:56:03,109 --> 01:56:01,920 amaze people something really 3279 01:56:04,390 --> 01:56:03,119 interesting 3280 01:56:07,270 --> 01:56:04,400 i would like to talk about slide nine 3281 01:56:09,510 --> 01:56:07,280 but we do not have time some other time 3282 01:56:11,189 --> 01:56:09,520 yeah well actually one of the things 3283 01:56:15,030 --> 01:56:11,199 that i 3284 01:56:17,990 --> 01:56:15,040 i have learned since i wrote the book is 3285 01:56:18,390 --> 01:56:18,000 that my focus our focus investigating 3286 01:56:21,669 --> 01:56:18,400 this 3287 01:56:25,030 --> 01:56:21,679 needs to be much much more in the field 3288 01:56:27,830 --> 01:56:25,040 of how whatever this 3289 01:56:29,830 --> 01:56:27,840 is is capable of manipulating human 3290 01:56:32,229 --> 01:56:29,840 perception and consciousness 3291 01:56:32,870 --> 01:56:32,239 i do think slide 9 is integral i really 3292 01:56:35,510 --> 01:56:32,880 do 3293 01:56:36,870 --> 01:56:35,520 slide 9 being a powerpoint briefing 3294 01:56:38,070 --> 01:56:36,880 slide that was given to the under 3295 01:56:40,629 --> 01:56:38,080 secretary of the 3296 01:56:42,790 --> 01:56:40,639 defense department which talked as you 3297 01:56:44,950 --> 01:56:42,800 say here that the science exists for an 3298 01:56:47,350 --> 01:56:44,960 enemy of the united states to manipulate 3299 01:56:49,830 --> 01:56:47,360 both physical and cognitive environments 3300 01:56:52,149 --> 01:56:49,840 in order to penetrate u.s facilities 3301 01:56:53,589 --> 01:56:52,159 it was a very clear statement to the 3302 01:56:56,070 --> 01:56:53,599 under secretary for the defense 3303 01:56:59,430 --> 01:56:56,080 department that whatever this technology 3304 01:57:03,430 --> 01:56:59,440 is it is capable of amazing 3305 01:57:06,149 --> 01:57:03,440 things and it was essentially a pitch 3306 01:57:08,229 --> 01:57:06,159 by hatef the advanced aerospace threat 3307 01:57:10,470 --> 01:57:08,239 identification program the people 3308 01:57:12,229 --> 01:57:10,480 investigating the phenomenon for the 3309 01:57:13,270 --> 01:57:12,239 office of the director of national 3310 01:57:15,350 --> 01:57:13,280 intelligence 3311 01:57:16,310 --> 01:57:15,360 it was their pitch to essentially get 3312 01:57:18,950 --> 01:57:16,320 increased funding 3313 01:57:20,950 --> 01:57:18,960 and to argue that this is and this was a 3314 01:57:23,669 --> 01:57:20,960 national security issue 3315 01:57:25,030 --> 01:57:23,679 what this phenomenon is capable of doing 3316 01:57:27,270 --> 01:57:25,040 and 3317 01:57:28,870 --> 01:57:27,280 you know for what it's worth i have 3318 01:57:32,709 --> 01:57:28,880 become more certain 3319 01:57:36,550 --> 01:57:32,719 since i wrote the book that there is uh 3320 01:57:39,750 --> 01:57:36,560 multiple intelligent technologies 3321 01:57:41,430 --> 01:57:39,760 operating here i suspect part of it 3322 01:57:45,510 --> 01:57:41,440 might be experimental u.s 3323 01:57:49,030 --> 01:57:45,520 technology but i don't think it explains 3324 01:57:52,149 --> 01:57:49,040 all of the phenomena and i do think that 3325 01:57:54,629 --> 01:57:52,159 there is quite probably 3326 01:57:55,750 --> 01:57:54,639 uh some kind of intelligence that is not 3327 01:57:59,030 --> 01:57:55,760 human that is 3328 01:58:02,390 --> 01:57:59,040 operating on our planet that is doing 3329 01:58:04,149 --> 01:58:02,400 weird and uh i think slide nine 3330 01:58:06,629 --> 01:58:04,159 pretty much acknowledges that and 3331 01:58:08,310 --> 01:58:06,639 and to me the significance of slight 3332 01:58:10,310 --> 01:58:08,320 nine is that it was intended 3333 01:58:12,229 --> 01:58:10,320 for a classified briefing for the under 3334 01:58:14,790 --> 01:58:12,239 secretary of the defense department 3335 01:58:15,270 --> 01:58:14,800 this is what your defence planners were 3336 01:58:18,629 --> 01:58:15,280 being 3337 01:58:21,430 --> 01:58:18,639 told and it's mind-blowing 3338 01:58:21,910 --> 01:58:21,440 and a large part of what i've learned 3339 01:58:25,270 --> 01:58:21,920 since 3340 01:58:29,270 --> 01:58:25,280 writing the book is that 3341 01:58:31,510 --> 01:58:29,280 a large part of what people are seeing 3342 01:58:33,030 --> 01:58:31,520 and engaging and experiencing with the 3343 01:58:34,550 --> 01:58:33,040 phenomenon 3344 01:58:36,070 --> 01:58:34,560 is something that is capable of 3345 01:58:39,589 --> 01:58:36,080 manipulating 3346 01:58:41,270 --> 01:58:39,599 what we see and that's 3347 01:58:43,350 --> 01:58:41,280 disturbing and more than a little 3348 01:58:46,470 --> 01:58:43,360 frightening because one 3349 01:58:47,990 --> 01:58:46,480 it shows that the united states and any 3350 01:58:48,790 --> 01:58:48,000 military power on the planet is 3351 01:58:51,589 --> 01:58:48,800 completely 3352 01:58:53,510 --> 01:58:51,599 powerless in such a technology and i can 3353 01:58:55,270 --> 01:58:53,520 understand why any country wouldn't want 3354 01:58:56,070 --> 01:58:55,280 to acknowledge that to its citizenry 3355 01:59:00,390 --> 01:58:56,080 because it might 3356 01:59:02,390 --> 01:59:00,400 scare people but two it also raises the 3357 01:59:04,149 --> 01:59:02,400 possibility that there is some kind of 3358 01:59:07,510 --> 01:59:04,159 intelligence that isn't 3359 01:59:09,189 --> 01:59:07,520 extra terrestrial but there's something 3360 01:59:10,950 --> 01:59:09,199 that we share our planet with 3361 01:59:12,550 --> 01:59:10,960 uh and that's something that i noticed 3362 01:59:14,470 --> 01:59:12,560 lou particularly louis 3363 01:59:15,750 --> 01:59:14,480 zondo was hinted at quite strongly in 3364 01:59:17,510 --> 01:59:15,760 the last few months 3365 01:59:20,950 --> 01:59:17,520 he's done a number of identities where 3366 01:59:25,189 --> 01:59:20,960 he's used the word intra-terrestrial 3367 01:59:26,950 --> 01:59:25,199 and uh interdimensional so 3368 01:59:29,109 --> 01:59:26,960 all i can promise you joe is things are 3369 01:59:30,390 --> 01:59:29,119 about to start getting very interesting 3370 01:59:32,229 --> 01:59:30,400 because i don't think the genie is going 3371 01:59:35,669 --> 01:59:32,239 to go back into the bottle i 3372 01:59:37,510 --> 01:59:35,679 really i really do think we're destined 3373 01:59:39,189 --> 01:59:37,520 for interesting times ahead 3374 01:59:40,790 --> 01:59:39,199 i agree i mean as long as much as we 3375 01:59:42,870 --> 01:59:40,800 were worried about this being a repeat 3376 01:59:44,070 --> 01:59:42,880 of the 50s i think 3377 01:59:45,589 --> 01:59:44,080 i'm excited you know i'm still 3378 01:59:47,510 --> 01:59:45,599 open-minded and i'm i'm looking forward 3379 01:59:49,589 --> 01:59:47,520 to what happens we'll see um 3380 01:59:53,430 --> 01:59:49,599 real quick you're open about you're just 3381 01:59:55,030 --> 01:59:53,440 open-minded about abductions and my labs 3382 01:59:56,629 --> 01:59:55,040 i am yeah i mean there's been a 3383 01:59:58,870 --> 01:59:56,639 misconception that i'm dismissive of 3384 02:00:01,350 --> 01:59:58,880 them i'm not i'm also interested in 3385 02:00:03,750 --> 02:00:01,360 cattle mutilations 3386 02:00:04,870 --> 02:00:03,760 i don't know if it's linked to the uap 3387 02:00:07,669 --> 02:00:04,880 phenomenon but 3388 02:00:08,390 --> 02:00:07,679 i suspect that it is i've had some 3389 02:00:11,189 --> 02:00:08,400 awesome 3390 02:00:12,950 --> 02:00:11,199 conversations since i did a story tv 3391 02:00:14,070 --> 02:00:12,960 story about cattle mutilations here in 3392 02:00:15,750 --> 02:00:14,080 australia 3393 02:00:17,189 --> 02:00:15,760 which was kind of like separate from the 3394 02:00:19,109 --> 02:00:17,199 documentary i made 3395 02:00:20,870 --> 02:00:19,119 i think funnily enough the tv station 3396 02:00:22,070 --> 02:00:20,880 that i made the show with were a bit 3397 02:00:23,350 --> 02:00:22,080 embarrassed about putting cattle 3398 02:00:25,910 --> 02:00:23,360 mutilations into the first 3399 02:00:27,510 --> 02:00:25,920 story but oddly when we actually looked 3400 02:00:29,030 --> 02:00:27,520 at the cattle mutilations issue we 3401 02:00:31,830 --> 02:00:29,040 became convinced that 3402 02:00:33,910 --> 02:00:31,840 it is just the most incredible story 3403 02:00:36,709 --> 02:00:33,920 i've had multiple i think six 3404 02:00:37,830 --> 02:00:36,719 veterinarians have told me um that 3405 02:00:41,669 --> 02:00:37,840 they've seen 3406 02:00:44,470 --> 02:00:41,679 anomalous excisions of organs that just 3407 02:00:45,109 --> 02:00:44,480 cannot be explained it's as one of them 3408 02:00:47,990 --> 02:00:45,119 said to me 3409 02:00:49,830 --> 02:00:48,000 it's like they used a laser scalpel and 3410 02:00:53,510 --> 02:00:49,840 authorized the wound 3411 02:00:58,390 --> 02:00:53,520 at a microscopic level where for example 3412 02:01:00,229 --> 02:00:58,400 the entire um rectum and anus of a cow 3413 02:01:02,149 --> 02:01:00,239 including parts of its lower intestine 3414 02:01:06,629 --> 02:01:02,159 were excised 3415 02:01:08,870 --> 02:01:06,639 and removed without any discernable 3416 02:01:09,750 --> 02:01:08,880 excisions on the exterior of the animal 3417 02:01:12,390 --> 02:01:09,760 uh and 3418 02:01:14,390 --> 02:01:12,400 when you internally examined the animal 3419 02:01:17,109 --> 02:01:14,400 adjoining blood vessels that were 3420 02:01:18,550 --> 02:01:17,119 microns thick right next to where this 3421 02:01:22,310 --> 02:01:18,560 organ had been 3422 02:01:24,629 --> 02:01:22,320 was still intact and uh as he said to me 3423 02:01:27,030 --> 02:01:24,639 one said he said look i i can't think of 3424 02:01:30,149 --> 02:01:27,040 any technology that could do 3425 02:01:33,030 --> 02:01:30,159 what that represents it's mind-blowing 3426 02:01:33,669 --> 02:01:33,040 so cattle mutilations is as confronting 3427 02:01:37,270 --> 02:01:33,679 and as 3428 02:01:39,589 --> 02:01:37,280 um disturbing as they are 3429 02:01:41,030 --> 02:01:39,599 i'm sure they're real whatever they are 3430 02:01:43,750 --> 02:01:41,040 and and they're just part of an 3431 02:01:47,270 --> 02:01:43,760 accumulation of phenomena that require 3432 02:01:49,109 --> 02:01:47,280 investigation and i think the longer the 3433 02:01:51,750 --> 02:01:49,119 media giggle and ridicule 3434 02:01:53,030 --> 02:01:51,760 and stigmatize the subject the less 3435 02:01:54,629 --> 02:01:53,040 we're ever going to get a breakthrough 3436 02:01:56,950 --> 02:01:54,639 in the area and 3437 02:01:57,990 --> 02:01:56,960 the one thing i take great apart from 3438 02:02:01,750 --> 02:01:58,000 you know frankly 3439 02:02:04,470 --> 02:02:01,760 is that shows like yours 3440 02:02:05,669 --> 02:02:04,480 forums like social media platforms like 3441 02:02:08,950 --> 02:02:05,679 youtube 3442 02:02:11,270 --> 02:02:08,960 twitter facebook instagram 3443 02:02:12,390 --> 02:02:11,280 they are becoming more important than 3444 02:02:15,669 --> 02:02:12,400 mainstream media 3445 02:02:17,669 --> 02:02:15,679 this issue 3446 02:02:19,350 --> 02:02:17,679 it's ridiculed and stigmatized the 3447 02:02:20,629 --> 02:02:19,360 subject and it's allowed itself to be 3448 02:02:22,790 --> 02:02:20,639 manipulated 3449 02:02:24,229 --> 02:02:22,800 and the gatekeepers of this information 3450 02:02:25,910 --> 02:02:24,239 the people who are trying to keep it 3451 02:02:28,229 --> 02:02:25,920 secret they're in a complete panic 3452 02:02:30,790 --> 02:02:28,239 because they can't do anything to stop 3453 02:02:31,589 --> 02:02:30,800 people like you or me from investigating 3454 02:02:33,109 --> 02:02:31,599 it 3455 02:02:35,430 --> 02:02:33,119 and there's a certain freedom there 3456 02:02:37,669 --> 02:02:35,440 because in the past they could walk into 3457 02:02:39,510 --> 02:02:37,679 the editor of a newspaper and say 3458 02:02:41,270 --> 02:02:39,520 the small chat would be really nice if 3459 02:02:45,030 --> 02:02:41,280 you stopped looking at that 3460 02:02:46,550 --> 02:02:45,040 we're still ufo in melbourne in 1966 you 3461 02:02:47,350 --> 02:02:46,560 know please stop publishing stories 3462 02:02:49,109 --> 02:02:47,360 about that it's 3463 02:02:51,589 --> 02:02:49,119 it's really not good for national 3464 02:02:55,270 --> 02:02:51,599 security 3465 02:02:57,350 --> 02:02:55,280 yes yes of course absolutely 3466 02:02:58,870 --> 02:02:57,360 that that era is over because there's 3467 02:03:00,550 --> 02:02:58,880 now a 3468 02:03:02,229 --> 02:03:00,560 wisdom of the crowd you know there are 3469 02:03:04,149 --> 02:03:02,239 people out there and i've i've been 3470 02:03:07,109 --> 02:03:04,159 really heartened by the fact that 3471 02:03:08,390 --> 02:03:07,119 um you know every day i mean i turned on 3472 02:03:09,990

outreach 3488 02:03:40,390 --> 02:03:36,880 for the information there is a desire 3489 02:03:42,790 --> 02:03:40,400 for um somebody to 3490 02:03:44,229 --> 02:03:42,800 look at this issue and i'm certainly not 3491 02:03:46,229 --> 02:03:44,239 going to be able to do it all myself 3492 02:03:48,310 --> 02:03:46,239 and that's where people like yourself 3493 02:03:49,990 --> 02:03:48,320 and numerous other people who are doing 3494 02:03:53,510 --> 02:03:50,000 great work in social media 3495 02:03:55,910 --> 02:03:53,520 and online you guys matter 3496 02:03:56,709 --> 02:03:55,920 much much more than you realize and and 3497 02:03:59,030 --> 02:03:56,719 um 3498 02:03:59,990 --> 02:03:59,040 i think frankly mainstream masthead 3499 02:04:03,109 --> 02:04:00,000 media matters 3500 02:04:05,030 --> 02:04:03,119 much less than it thinks um it's it's 3501 02:04:07,430 --> 02:04:05,040 far less relevant 3502 02:04:08,709 --> 02:04:07,440 i mean i've i've done interviews 3503 02:04:11,189 --> 02:04:08,719 recently which i know 3504 02:04:12,629 --> 02:04:11,199 have been watched by many many hundreds 3505 02:04:16,390 --> 02:04:12,639 of thousands of people 3506 02:04:19,270 --> 02:04:16,400 and they've been predominantly online 3507 02:04:20,790 --> 02:04:19,280 uh and yet the major mass circulation 3508 02:04:22,550 --> 02:04:20,800 newspapers in my country 3509 02:04:24,069 --> 02:04:22,560 are lucky if they have a circulation of 3510 02:04:27,030 --> 02:04:24,079 more than 100 3511 02:04:28,069 --> 02:04:27,040 000 paid subscribers per day and that's 3512 02:04:29,750 --> 02:04:28,079 pretty much the case 3513 02:04:32,229 --> 02:04:29,760 everywhere in the world including in 3514 02:04:34,709 --> 02:04:32,239 america the masthead media 3515 02:04:36,069 --> 02:04:34,719 really only has the power and the clout 3516 02:04:39,189 --> 02:04:36,079 that it has 3517 02:04:41,910 --> 02:04:39,199 because we assume that it does 3518 02:04:43,189 --> 02:04:41,920 that era is over you know the the 3519 02:04:46,790 --> 02:04:43,199 reality is that 3520 02:04:48,629 --> 02:04:46,800 there is a a delightful tyranny 3521 02:04:49,990 --> 02:04:48,639 a lovely anarchy that's coming with 3522 02:04:52,790 --> 02:04:50,000 social media which 3523 02:04:54,629 --> 02:04:52,800 they can't control and it's no 3524 02:04:56,470 --> 02:04:54,639 coincidence that this 3525 02:04:57,669 --> 02:04:56,480 transparency and accountability is 3526 02:05:00,390 --> 02:04:57,679 beginning to happen 3527 02:05:02,390 --> 02:05:00,400 now at a time when social media is 3528 02:05:05,350 --> 02:05:02,400 assuming a relevance and a dominance 3529 02:05:07,270 --> 02:05:05,360 frankly that it never had before 3530 02:05:08,790 --> 02:05:07,280 it's getting really interesting and 3531 02:05:11,830 --> 02:05:08,800 that's why 3532 02:05:14,310 --> 02:05:11,840 you know you're seeing pushes now for 3533 02:05:15,189 --> 02:05:14,320 facebook to be controlled you know 3534 02:05:16,709 --> 02:05:15,199 congress and 3535 02:05:18,470 --> 02:05:16,719 parliaments and different countries 3536 02:05:19,589 --> 02:05:18,480 you're trying to restrain what people 3537 02:05:22,310 --> 02:05:19,599 can say 3538 02:05:23,669 --> 02:05:22,320 and express on social media and i think 3539 02:05:26,790 --> 02:05:23,679 it's a very dangerous thing 3540 02:05:28,629 --> 02:05:26,800 because it's the forum where 3541 02:05:31,830 --> 02:05:28,639 a lot of these questions are now going 3542 02:05:34,390 --> 02:05:31,840 to begin to be answered 3543 02:05:35,109 --> 02:05:34,400 and you can answer this short ross i 3544 02:05:36,870 --> 02:05:35,119 promised a friend 3545 02:05:38,310 --> 02:05:36,880 answer's short i know i didn't expect 3546 02:05:39,350 --> 02:05:38,320 you to answer the last one so long and i 3547 02:05:41,750 --> 02:05:39,360 don't want to keep you 3548 02:05:43,350 --> 02:05:41,760 your your sources anybody say we're 3549 02:05:44,950 --> 02:05:43,360 dealing with interdimensional 3550 02:05:46,790 --> 02:05:44,960 and has they discussed whether or not 3551 02:05:49,669 --> 02:05:46,800 it's one intelligence 3552 02:05:49,990 --> 02:05:49,679 acting portraying itself as many or is 3553 02:05:51,830 --> 02:05:50,000 it 3554 02:05:53,750 --> 02:05:51,840 several intelligences according to 3555 02:05:56,229 --> 02:05:53,760 various sources you've spoken to 3556 02:05:57,910 --> 02:05:56,239 um i i have not had sources that have 3557 02:06:01,189 --> 02:05:57,920 been categorical with me 3558 02:06:03,030 --> 02:06:01,199 about what the phenomenon is 3559 02:06:05,030 --> 02:06:03,040 that provided this technology they've 3560 02:06:07,669 --> 02:06:05,040 talked about the technology 3561 02:06:09,510 --> 02:06:07,679 and they've talked about how advanced it 3562 02:06:12,069 --> 02:06:09,520 is it represents nothing 3563 02:06:12,629 --> 02:06:12,079 that is known within human science i 3564 02:06:15,350 --> 02:06:12,639 mean 3565 02:06:16,950 --> 02:06:15,360 nat for example nat kobets the director 3566 02:06:18,790 --> 02:06:16,960 of science and technology development 3567 02:06:21,430 --> 02:06:18,800 for the us navy when he 3568 02:06:23,350 --> 02:06:21,440 himself up in private business he 3569 02:06:26,790 --> 02:06:23,360 specialized in a form of 3570 02:06:29,510 --> 02:06:26,800 welding called electron beam welding 3571 02:06:31,270 --> 02:06:29,520 which was a very very high quality super 3572 02:06:34,310 --> 02:06:31,280 strong form of welding which 3573 02:06:36,709 --> 02:06:34,320 doesn't leave the traditional bead that 3574 02:06:37,990 --> 02:06:36,719 is normally left with a conventional 3575 02:06:40,470 --> 02:06:38,000 welder 3576 02:06:41,910 --> 02:06:40,480 and he worked on i think the c4 galaxy 3577 02:06:43,589 --> 02:06:41,920 undercarriage and 3578 02:06:45,510 --> 02:06:43,599 he was well known and well acknowledged 3579 02:06:46,950 --> 02:06:45,520 inside the u.s air force in particular 3580 02:06:50,709 --> 02:06:46,960 as somebody who knew his 3581 02:06:53,750 --> 02:06:50,719 stuff with high quality metal bonding 3582 02:06:55,350 --> 02:06:53,760 and for that reason after he 3583 02:06:57,510 --> 02:06:55,360 went into private enterprise he was 3584 02:07:00,149 --> 02:06:57,520 called by the us air force and asked 3585 02:07:01,510 --> 02:07:00,159 to come to the right patterson air force 3586 02:07:03,030 --> 02:07:01,520 base 3587 02:07:05,030 --> 02:07:03,040 which you and i would know as the 3588 02:07:08,390 --> 02:07:05,040 foreign technology division 3589 02:07:12,229 --> 02:07:08,400 and under heavy security he was shown 3590 02:07:15,030 --> 02:07:12,239 what he described to me as a bulkhead 3591 02:07:15,830 --> 02:07:15,040 and he suspected that it was something 3592 02:07:17,830 --> 02:07:15,840 alien 3593 02:07:19,990 --> 02:07:17,840 he suspected that what he was looking at 3594 02:07:22,069 --> 02:07:20,000 was not this world because 3595 02:07:23,750 --> 02:07:22,079 and and his suspicion was confirmed when 3596 02:07:26,390 --> 02:07:23,760 he looked at it both 3597 02:07:29,030 --> 02:07:26,400 um his own eyes and up close with 3598 02:07:31,270 --> 02:07:29,040 electrons getting microscope because 3599 02:07:33,270 --> 02:07:31,280 they were wanting to know whether it was 3600 02:07:36,709 --> 02:07:33,280 possible that he had been bonded 3601 02:07:37,270 --> 02:07:36,719 using electron beam welding technology 3602 02:07:39,430 --> 02:07:37,280 and 3603 02:07:41,350 --> 02:07:39,440 he could see immediately that it wasn't 3604 02:07:43,109 --> 02:07:41,360 and when he looked at it at a molecular 3605 02:07:45,750 --> 02:07:43,119 microscopic level 3606 02:07:46,950 --> 02:07:45,760 he said it was mind-blowing because 3607 02:07:50,310 --> 02:07:46,960 whatever it was 3608 02:07:53,030 --> 02:07:50,320 it had been bonded at the atomic level 3609 02:07:53,750 --> 02:07:53,040 it was like layers of electrons had been 3610 02:07:57,189 --> 02:07:53,760 bonded 3611 02:07:59,189 --> 02:07:57,199 in a way that he just could not explain 3612 02:08:01,270 --> 02:07:59,199 and that is fascinating to me because 3613 02:08:03,589 --> 02:08:01,280 that was on the record source 3614 02:08:05,189 --> 02:08:03,599 telling me that he'd seen something that 3615 02:08:08,950 --> 02:08:05,199 he suspects 3616 02:08:11,910 --> 02:08:08,960 was not of this world 3617 02:08:12,709 --> 02:08:11,920 and with that amazing piece of 3618 02:08:15,189 --> 02:08:12,719 information 3619 02:08:16,629 --> 02:08:15,199 and i want to thank you for being here i 3620 02:08:19,350 --> 02:08:16,639 want to thank you for the past 3621 02:08:20,870 --> 02:08:19,360 year and whatever it's been answering my 3622 02:08:22,229 --> 02:08:20,880 questions in our conversations because 3623 02:08:23,910 --> 02:08:22,239 you helped me a lot 3624 02:08:25,350 --> 02:08:23,920 and i hope your book your book is 3625 02:08:27,189 --> 02:08:25,360 important i hope a

i mean 3731 02:12:20,709 --> 02:12:20,000 i've spoken about theories from the 90s 3732 02:12:22,229 --> 02:12:20,719 i heard that 3733 02:12:23,830 --> 02:12:22,239 there are certain interdimensionals or 3734 02:12:25,510 --> 02:12:23,840 whatever who here who feed off of our 3735 02:12:26,470 --> 02:12:25,520 negative energy and i got slammed for 3736 02:12:28,470 --> 02:12:26,480 even bringing that up 3737 02:12:29,910 --> 02:12:28,480 i know the long is brought up too but a 3738 02:12:31,189 --> 02:12:29,920 lot of people have spoken about that 3739 02:12:33,270 --> 02:12:31,199 over the years 3740 02:12:34,470 --> 02:12:33,280 back a long time ago that subject came 3741 02:12:35,910 --> 02:12:34,480 up um 3742 02:12:41,830 --> 02:12:35,920 i don't know i know it's controversial 3743 02:12:47,830 --> 02:12:45,830 and i do think you know it's either 3744 02:12:50,229 --> 02:12:47,840 i've i've spoken to people who have 3745 02:12:53,109 --> 02:12:50,239 different theories you know 3746 02:12:55,109 --> 02:12:53,119 sources you know multiple groups here 3747 02:12:57,830 --> 02:12:55,119 interdimensional extraterrestrial 3748 02:13:00,229 --> 02:12:57,840 ultra-terrestrial it's like 3749 02:13:01,430 --> 02:13:00,239 and then you talk to somebody who is 3750 02:13:01,990 --> 02:13:01,440 right in the middle of things and he's 3751 02:13:05,589 --> 02:13:02,000 like the 3752 02:13:07,430 --> 02:13:05,599 the evidence is contradictory um 3753 02:13:09,510 --> 02:13:07,440 and i i've tweeted this before the last 3754 02:13:10,790 --> 02:13:09,520 thing they said after looking at all the 3755 02:13:13,270 --> 02:13:10,800 evidence 3756 02:13:14,950 --> 02:13:13,280 it's a show meaning it's just so 3757 02:13:16,550 --> 02:13:14,960 it's it's just no way to figure it out 3758 02:13:18,069 --> 02:13:16,560 you think you have it figured out 3759 02:13:19,589 --> 02:13:18,079 and then another piece of evidence comes 3760 02:13:22,629 --> 02:13:19,599 in it's like oh that doesn't make sense 3761 02:13:22,639 --> 02:13:25,669 so yeah 3762 02:13:31,189 --> 02:13:29,430 and dr eric davis 3763 02:13:33,430 --> 02:13:31,199 i wish he could speak because he he 3764 02:13:34,870 --> 02:13:33,440 would be on so many shows 3765 02:13:36,229 --> 02:13:34,880 it's just his job you know they don't 3766 02:13:38,950 --> 02:13:36,239 want him to talk about it ever since the 3767 02:13:41,270 --> 02:13:38,960 new york times article came out which 3768 02:13:42,149 --> 02:13:41,280 brian bender has spoken about i'm not a 3769 02:13:45,189 --> 02:13:42,159 big c i 3770

02:13:59,750 --> 02:13:56,320 don't think it's 3777 02:14:00,950 --> 02:13:59,760 bad thing it's just not my thing 3778 02:14:02,870 --> 02:14:00,960 especially if they can yeah like you 3779 02:14:04,950 --> 02:14:02,880 said if they can manipulate perception 3780 02:14:06,709 --> 02:14:04,960 how can you trust anything and when i 3781 02:14:07,750 --> 02:14:06,719 was on the richard dolan young guns 3782 02:14:09,430 --> 02:14:07,760 panel with 3783 02:14:10,950 --> 02:14:09,440 jay from project unity he's like yeah 3784 02:14:11,990 --> 02:14:10,960 how do you how can you trust any of your 3785 02:14:15,910 --> 02:14:12,000 experience and 3786 02:14:17,990 --> 02:14:15,920 carla turner said there was one uh 3787 02:14:19,510 --> 02:14:18,000 one experiencer abductee who said she 3788 02:14:20,950 --> 02:14:19,520 had this amazing experience they brought 3789 02:14:23,189 --> 02:14:20,960 her and she was in front of 3790 02:14:24,870 --> 02:14:23,199 what's up sean they they brought her in 3791 02:14:26,310 --> 02:14:24,880 front of this crowd and she was speaking 3792 02:14:27,990 --> 02:14:26,320 she had such a great feeling and then 3793 02:14:30,229 --> 02:14:28,000 when she when she 3794 02:14:31,990 --> 02:14:30,239 remembered being back in her car it was 3795 02:14:33,189 --> 02:14:32,000 she did not feel well and she went under 3796 02:14:34,950 --> 02:14:33,199 hypnosis and 3797 02:14:37,589 --> 02:14:34,960 the hypnosis was something really 3798 02:14:39,430 --> 02:14:37,599 negative so if you believe the hypnosis 3799 02:14:41,030 --> 02:14:39,440 the original great memory was just a 3800 02:14:42,709 --> 02:14:41,040 screen memory so it's like 3801 02:14:43,990 --> 02:14:42,719 and carla turner was like we can't trust 3802 02:14:45,270 --> 02:14:44,000 anything she goes i don't know what 3803 02:14:47,430 --> 02:14:45,280 we're dealing with e.t 3804 02:14:48,390 --> 02:14:47,440 interdimensional but sometimes whoever 3805 02:14:50,629 --> 02:14:48,400 they are they lie 3806 02:14:52,069 --> 02:14:50,639 some of them lie and i love carla turner 3807 02:14:54,229 --> 02:14:52,079 and i don't know why i 3808 02:14:55,189 --> 02:14:54,239 rejected her work earlier um there are 3809 02:14:56,709 --> 02:14:55,199 other people i'm going to go back and 3810 02:14:58,390 --> 02:14:56,719 look at some of linda molten howe's work 3811 02:15:00,069 --> 02:14:58,400 because i've looked at that and said 3812 02:15:01,990 --> 02:15:00,079 you know when i read it at the time her 3813 02:15:03,750 --> 02:15:02,000 glimpses of other realities part two 3814 02:15:05,750 --> 02:15:03,760 i was like i liked it but then over the 3815 02:15:07,510 --> 02:15:05,760 years i became more skeptical and 3816 02:15:12,069 --> 02:15:07,520 more conservative but i need to i need 3817 02:15:16,790 --> 02:15:15,030 now jay has said jay may may have had an 3818 02:15:18,470 --> 02:15:16,800 experience but he talked about how you 3819 02:15:20,149 --> 02:15:18,480 cannot trust your experience as far as 3820 02:15:21,109 --> 02:15:20,159 it being a literal representation of 3821 02:15:22,790 --> 02:15:21,119 what you're seeing 3822 02:15:24,790 --> 02:15:22,800 if they because he knows about jane 3823 02:15:26,470 --> 02:15:24,800 knows about slide nine he's asked 3824 02:15:28,069 --> 02:15:26,480 lou about slide nine he's asked ross 3825 02:15:29,510 --> 02:15:28,079 about slide nine so 3826 02:15:31,350 --> 02:15:29,520 it doesn't mean he's not i mean i think 3827 02:15:33,750 --> 02:15:31,360 he's having an experience and i think 3828 02:15:34,709 --> 02:15:33,760 i mean obviously if i think telepathy is 3829 02:15:36,229 --> 02:15:34,719 real which i do 3830 02:15:37,510 --> 02:15:36,239 then if there are other beings here we 3831 02:15:39,270 --> 02:15:37,520 can communicate with them so it's not 3832 02:15:41,030 --> 02:15:39,280 like a big stretch for me to think 3833 02:15:42,629 --> 02:15:41,040 you could try to bring in craft and you 3834 02:15:42,950 --> 02:15:42,639 know people should watch the george 3835 02:15:45,270 --> 02:15:42,960 knapp 3836 02:15:46,790 --> 02:15:45,280

02:15:51,360 is 3840 02:15:55,350 --> 02:15:52,880 really good i mean it's probably one of 3841 02:15:56,870 --> 02:15:55,360 the better home videos i've ever seen 3842 02:15:58,950 --> 02:15:56,880

02:16:01,599 you don't want to listen to them but 3846 02:16:05,030 --> 02:16:03,679 these regular guys doing ce5 type of 3847 02:16:06,390 --> 02:16:05,040 stuff 3848 02:16:08,069 --> 02:16:06,400 do

dummy because i don't think 3896 02:18:09,910 --> 02:18:08,639 so but he goes i was in a place 3897 02:18:11,910 --> 02:18:09,920 i can't tell you what the work was 3898 02:18:13,589 --> 02:18:11,920 because it was classified but it was 3899 02:18:15,509 --> 02:18:13,599 humans and next to them look like 3900 02:18:17,429 --> 02:18:15,519 little grays you know working with them 3901 02:18:18,870 --> 02:18:17,439 totally crazy for a lot of people 3902 02:18:21,110 --> 02:18:18,880 you know it's even crazy for people to 3903 02:18:22,629 --> 02:18:21,120 talk about crash retrievals but 3904 02:18:24,309 --> 02:18:22,639 that's what he said and he said he knew 3905 02:18:26,070 --> 02:18:24,319 other people who other people in the 3906 02:18:27,830 --> 02:18:26,080 military who had experienced it 3907 02:18:34,469 --> 02:18:27,840 and not during remote viewing it was 3908 02:18:39,509 --> 02:18:36,150 how great would it be if neil mccaslin 3909 02:18:42,230 --> 02:18:39,519 came

i'm not sure lou's talking about 3913 02:18:50,309 --> 02:18:46,639 mccaslin but i'm sure lou would be so 3914 02:18:57,830 --> 02:18:54,790 oak shannon um a scientist 3915 02:19:00,790 --> 02:18:57,840 who was friends with dr eric davis 3916 02:19:04,230 --> 02:19:00,800 um he was part of the john alexander 3917 02:19:06,150 --> 02:19:04,240 advanced theoretical physics group 3918 02:19:07,509 --> 02:19:06,160 grant cameron past pasted some of his 3919 02:19:08,790 --> 02:19:07,519 notes recently 3920 02:19:11,830 --> 02:19:08,800 on facebook it may not have been 3921 02:19:15,349 --> 02:19:11,840 recently i saw it recently um 3922 02:19:17,669 --> 02:19:15,359 and he is the one that convinced tom 3923 02:19:19,030 --> 02:19:17,679 wilson to meet with eric davis in 2002 3924 02:19:20,549 --> 02:19:19,040 and like i said to ross the meeting 3925 02:19:21,910 --> 02:19:20,559 happened the notes are real i have zero 3926 02:19:23,830 --> 02:19:21,920 doubt i've seen things which i can't 3927 02:19:25,830 --> 02:19:23,840 talk about but even the stuff publicly 3928 02:19:27,190 --> 02:19:25,840 i mean for me if you look at it it's no 3929 02:19:30,389 --> 02:19:27,200 doubt that they met 3930 02:19:31,589 --> 02:19:30,399 um and oak shannon helped set that 3931 02:19:34,870 --> 02:19:31,599 meeting up 3932 02:19:36,150 --> 02:19:34,880 and oak shannon said 3933 02:19:37,990 --> 02:19:36,160 if he caught you know he introduced 3934 02:19:39,349 --> 02:19:38,000 those two and if he caused any 3935 02:19:41,910 --> 02:19:39,359 embarrassment that he apologized 3936 02:19:43,349 --> 02:19:41,920 you know tom tom wilson is a good man 3937 02:19:43,910 --> 02:19:43,359 and meanwhile and then he tells ross i 3938 02:19:47,429 --> 02:19:43,920 don't know 3939 02:19:49,190 --> 02:19:47,439 shannon is so it's like is tom 3940 02:19:50,870 --> 02:19:49,200 wilson throwing us a bone by saying that 3941 02:19:52,389 --> 02:19:50,880 because it's obvious you know oak 3942 02:19:53,910 --> 02:19:52,399 shannon 3943 02:19:55,910 --> 02:19:53,920 very religious person he's not just 3944 02:19:57,830 --> 02:19:55,920 gonna lie about knowing tom wilson it 3945 02:19:58,469 --> 02:19:57,840 makes zero sense to anybody who looks at 3946 02:20:01,190 --> 02:19:58,479 that 3947 02:20:02,870 --> 02:20:01,200 so um hey joe if the president can't 3948 02:20:04,469 --> 02:20:02,880 discuss ufos what do you think has more 3949 02:20:07,110 --> 02:20:04,479 authority than him 3950 02:20:08,389 --> 02:20:07,120 um i don't know if it's about authority 3951 02:20:10,790 --> 02:20:08,399 i just think he doesn't have 3952 02:20:13,030 --> 02:20:10,800 access and that's that's one thing i 3953 02:20:14,550 --> 02:20:13,040 wasn't obviously i'm very liberal i 3954 02:20:16,150 --> 02:20:14,560 wasn't a trump fan but 3955 02:20:17,910 --> 02:20:16,160 the one thing i wanted trump to do to 3956 02:20:19,190 --> 02:20:17,920 say what do you mean i don't have access 3957 02:20:20,550 --> 02:20:19,200 i'm the president 3958 02:20:22,309 --> 02:20:20,560 get me into that building let me know 3959 02:20:24,309 --> 02:20:22,319 where it is and just bulldoze the door 3960 02:20:29,030 --> 02:20:24,319 down go in and take the craft 3961 02:20:32,070 --> 02:20:30,710 the coincidence between george knapp and 3962 02:20:33,990 --> 02:20:32,080 the triangles 3963 02:20:35,270 --> 02:20:34,000 showing up i'm not really sure you know 3964 02:20:39,190 --> 02:20:35,280 what i mean you mean 3965 02:20:42,230 --> 02:20:39,200 uh i think he meant uh 3966 02:20:43,670 --> 02:20:42,240 89 was when the program supposedly went 3967 02:20:45,030 --> 02:20:43,680 into hibernation and then that's when 3968 02:20:46,630 --> 02:20:45,040 some triangles started showing up in 3969 02:20:48,950 --> 02:20:46,640 australia where ross suspects 3970 02:20:49,910 --> 02:20:48,960 maybe they started testing their advance 3971 02:20:50,870 --> 02:20:49,920 craft out there 3972 02:20:53,910 --> 02:20:50,880 i think that's what he was just 3973 02:20:56,630 --> 02:20:55,510 what's the most important questions for 3974 02:20:58,550 --> 02:20:56,640 you personally would like to have 3975 02:21:01,750 --> 02:20:58,560 answered by folks like lou 3976 02:21:05,270 --> 02:21:01,760 um the one thing 3977 02:21:08,070 --> 02:21:05,280 jeff is do you know do you have 3978 02:21:08,630 --> 02:21:08,080 any hard evidence proof that any of 3979 02:21:11,510 --> 02:21:08,640 these 3980 02:21:12,230 --> 02:21:11,520 groups or intelligences are using us you 3981 02:21:15,429 --> 02:21:12,240 know and 3982 02:21:16,950 --> 02:21:15,439 you know is there any way to stop it and 3983 02:21:17,750 --> 02:21:16,960 are there groups out there that are 3984 02:21:19,990 --> 02:21:17,760 willing to help 3985 02:21:21,510 --> 02:21:20,000 if we reach a critical mass and we reach 3986 02:21:23,110 --> 02:21:21,520 out i think you know the whole prime 3987 02:21:24,230 --> 02:21:23,120 directive i i do think that there's 3988 02:21:26,550 --> 02:21:24,240 something to that 3989 02:21:28,230 --> 02:21:26,560 and if we get to enough people on this 3990 02:21:29,910 --> 02:21:28,240 planet who ask for help i think they 3991 02:21:31,030 --> 02:21:29,920 would step in but without that they're 3992 02:21:32,710 --> 02:21:31,040 not going to step in 3993 02:21:34,710 --> 02:21:32,720 they may shut off nukes and turn on 3994 02:21:37,590 --> 02:21:34,720 nukes i think that's about 3995 02:21:38,790 --> 02:21:37,600 it i mean and then you have i don't but 3996 02:21:40,309 --> 02:21:38,800 i don't know if it's one group or 3997 02:21:41,590 --> 02:21:40,319 multiple groups so it's confusing that's 3998 02:21:42,150 --> 02:21:41,600 another thing you know if they have 3999 02:21:44,309 --> 02:21:42,160 evidence 4000 02:21:46,150 --> 02:21:44,319 100 that it's multiple groups i mean 4001 02:21:46,710 --> 02:21:46,160 james fox is working on a documentary 4002 02:21:49,990 --> 02:21:46,720 about 4003 02:21:53,670 --> 02:21:50,000 vargina so that's a case in the mid 90s 4004 02:21:54,630 --> 02:21:53,680 in i think it's brazil vargina and 4005 02:21:56,550 --> 02:21:54,640 certainly seems like they're 4006 02:21:58,070 --> 02:21:56,560 weird-looking ets you know if that's the 4007 02:21:59,590 --> 02:21:58,080 case then there's multiple groups here 4008 02:22:00,469 --> 02:21:59,600 right away right you know 4009 02:22:01,910 --> 02:22:00,479 and then you've got the 4010 02:22:02,790 --> 02:22:01,920 ultra-terrestrials but i would like to 4011 02:22:04,469 --> 02:22:02,800 know if they had 4012 02:22:06,710 --> 02:22:04,479 hard evidence that any of these groups 4013 02:22:08,469 --> 02:22:06,720 are causing us harm because if they not 4014 02:22:09,830 --> 02:22:08,479 we don't have to worry about it you know 4015 02:22:11,110 --> 02:22:09,840 get us the information out then it's 4016 02:22:16,870 --> 02:22:11,120 only technology they're worried about 4017 02:22:21,270 --> 02:22:19,670 hessdalen i went to norway hutch i 4018 02:22:22,870 --> 02:22:21,280 wanted to visit hesstal and i did not 4019 02:22:23,990 --> 02:22:22,880 get to see it it's really interesting i 4020 02:22:27,830 --> 02:22:24,000 don't know if it has anything 4021 02:22:29,830 --> 02:22:27,840 anything to do with um e.t or non-human 4022 02:22:30,550 --> 02:22:29,840 but it's consistent and it's repeatable 4023 02:22:32,630 --> 02:22:30,560 i mean 4024 02:22:34,870 --> 02:22:32,640 there's a video on youtube where jay 4025 02:22:36,790 --> 02:22:34,880 allen heineck went to hessdalen 4026 02:22:38,150 --> 02:22:36,800 you should check that out um so there's 4027 02:22:40,230 --> 02:22:38,160 definitely a phenomenon there i don't 4028 02:22:44,230 --> 02:22:40,240 know what it is 4029 02:22:48,950 --> 02:22:47,990 um christopher dunn vale's mana 4030 02:22:51,429 --> 02:22:48,960 materials are out 4031 02:22:52,070 --> 02:22:51,439 no but i don't know if you saw on 4032 02:22:53,910 --> 02:22:52,080 youtube 4033 02:22:55,110 --> 02:22:53,920 i mean on twitter the other day dr gary 4034 02:22:57,270 --> 02:22:55,120 nolan has 4035 02:22:58,389 --> 02:22:57,280 was speaking about how his colleagues 4036 02:23:01,830 --> 02:22:58,399 are really a lot 4037 02:23:02,150 --> 02:23:01,840 more open-minded on this subject and i i 4038 02:23:05,750 --> 02:23:02,160 mean 4039 02:23:09,349 --> 02:23:05,760 materials they're being tested 4040 02:23:09,750 --> 02:23:09,359 um but that paper is not that far away i 4041 02:23:12,469 --> 02:23:09,760 believe 4042 02:23:15,500 --> 02:23:12,479 um it'd be great if it was this year 4043 02:23:16,830 --> 02:23:15,510 sometime this year would be awesome 4044 02:23:18,389 --> 02:23:16,840 [Music] 4045 02:23:20,710 --> 02:23:18,399 um 4046 02:23:22,710 --> 02:23:20,720 19 west hall you know i have a westhall 4047 02:23:24,630 --> 02:23:22,720

picture which i did not get to 4051 02:23:31,429 --> 02:23:30,000 which i found today was a drawing from 4052 02:23:35,750 --> 02:23:31,439 one of the witnesses 4053 02:23:39,590 --> 02:23:38,309 it matches what john lennon saw in 74 in 4054 02:23:41,429 --> 02:23:39,600 new york 4055 02:23:42,790 --> 02:23:41,439 he wrote that song nobody told me that 4056 02:23:43,349 --> 02:23:42,800 days like

too surprised so that 4060 02:23:51,030 --> 02:23:48,880 craft seems like it matches what was 4061 02:23:54,469 --> 02:23:51,040 seen in west hall it's pretty 4062 02:23:57,910 --> 02:23:54,479 really close as far as the top but 4063 02:23:59,349 --> 02:23:57,920 um pretty neat west hall is amazing and 4064 02:24:01,910 --> 02:23:59,359 it's another thing i wanted to get into 4065 02:24:04,309 -->

4074 02:24:20,550 --> 02:24:18,080 saying that he ran into a group that 4075 02:24:21,590 --> 02:24:20,560 would grab ufo data before anybody else 4076 02:24:23,030 --> 02:24:21,600 could get to us

02:30:05,760 place if that meeting was not great and 4235 02:30:09,590 --> 02:30:07,680 wasn't impressive to wilson 4236 02:30:11,190 --> 02:30:09,600 his boss wouldn't have had a meeting 4237

02:32:01,280 girl will get a lot of credit i give him 4283 02:32:05,750 --> 02:32:03,359 credit now i mean i'm not one to just 4284 02:32:07,429 --> 02:32:05,760 totally pile on and when i see that i'll 4285 02:32:09,030 --> 02:32:07,439 usually take the other side if if there 4286 02:32:10,790 --> 02:32:09,040 is another side i won't just say it for 4287 02:32:13,590 --> 02:32:10,800 the hell of it grier's done a lot of 4288 02:32:17,270 --> 02:32:13,600 good stuff i mean i do think he met with 4289 02:32:19,030 --> 02:32:17,280 um the cia director woolsey uh 4290 02:32:20,309 --> 02:32:19,040 and um whether or not it was a briefing 4291 02:32:21,110 --> 02:32:20,319 i know woolsey had a problem with that 4292 02:32:23,110 --> 02:32:21,120 but you do not 4293 02:32:24,550 --> 02:32:23,120 invite stephen greer to a dinner that 4294 02:32:25,670 --> 02:32:24,560 was set up by john peterson of the 4295 02:32:27,910 --> 02:32:25,680 arlington institute 4296 02:32:29,590 --> 02:32:27,920 and not expect to talk ufos why would 4297 02:32:29,990 --> 02:32:29,600 you invite him there why so he can talk 4298 02:32:33,110 --> 02:32:30,000 about 4299 02:32:35,349 --> 02:32:33,120 his emergency room procedures 4300 02:32:36,870 --> 02:32:35,359 yeah lou versus mccaslin i don't know i 4301 02:32:37,270 --> 02:32:36,880 know so little about mccaslin i would 4302 02:32:39,830 --> 02:32:37,280 think 4303 02:32:41,110 --> 02:32:39,840 that's a good question good question to 4304 02:32:42,790 --> 02:32:41,120 ask lou i think 4305 02:32:44,710 --> 02:32:42,800 castle is such a mystery i mean it would 4306 02:32:46,469 --> 02:32:44,720 be nice i think the only reason we know 4307 02:32:48,070 --> 02:32:46,479 he was involved is 4308 02:32:49,270 --> 02:32:48,080 the wikileaks stuff i need to go over 4309 02:32:50,710 --> 02:32:49,280 again there's really great stuff in 4310 02:32:52,150 --> 02:32:50,720 wikileaks that i did not even get to 4311 02:32:53,590 --> 02:32:52,160 talk about with ross but it's in the 4312 02:32:55,750 --> 02:32:53,600 book 4313 02:32:58,309 --> 02:32:55,760 it's great stuff i mean talking about 4314 02:32:59,590 --> 02:32:58,319 how the information is there we just 4315 02:33:01,270 --> 02:32:59,600 know you need to know where to look and 4316 02:33:03,510 --> 02:33:01,280 it gets really specific 4317 02:33:04,710 --> 02:33:03,520 i mean he talks about the one thing i 4318 02:33:07,030 --> 02:33:04,720 forget the guy's name 4319 02:33:08,710 --> 02:33:07,040 bob french and he talks about how 4320 02:33:11,030 --> 02:33:08,720 certain ufos coming out of the water 4321 02:33:13,429 --> 02:33:11,040 they put out a certain frequency 4322 02:33:14,630 --> 02:33:13,439 and so our government knows that and 4323 02:33:16,389 --> 02:33:14,640 when they hear that when they see that 4324 02:33:17,990 --> 02:33:16,399 frequency they just don't bother he goes 4325 02:33:19,590 --> 02:33:18,000 but if i were to give you that frequency 4326 02:33:20,230 --> 02:33:19,600 then our adversaries would create a 4327 02:33:22,070 --> 02:33:20,240 craft 4328 02:33:23,349 --> 02:33:22,080 with that frequency knowing that we're 4329 02:33:24,710 --> 02:33:23,359 not going to go after it 4330 02:33:25,750 --> 02:33:24,720 so he wouldn't give that information up 4331 02:33:27,110 --> 02:33:25,760 but it's really good stuff in the 4332 02:33:29,750 --> 02:33:27,120 wikileaks 4333 02:33:30,950 --> 02:33:29,760 um and yeah hillary clinton was the you 4334 02:33:31,910 --> 02:33:30,960 know they were planning on doing stuff 4335 02:33:33,030 --> 02:33:31,920 with hillary 4336 02:33:36,550 --> 02:33:33,040 would have been interesting to see if 4337 02:33:36,560 --> 02:33:40,389 let me see if i'm gonna 4338 02:33:40,399 --> 02:33:45,990 anything else how you doing new york tag 4339 02:33:49,190 --> 02:33:47,590 castle now a member of space force i 4340 02:33:49,750 --> 02:33:49,200 don't know bob fish that was it thank 4341 02:33:52,630 --> 02:33:49,760 you drew 4342 02:33:54,150 --> 02:33:52,640 bob fish that part of the book i didn't 4343 02:33:56,150 --> 02:33:54,160 know that i mean 4344 02:33:57,590 --> 02:33:56,160 i need to go over wikileaks again it's 4345 02:33:59,510 --> 02:33:57,600 another weak point of mine 4346 02:34:00,790 --> 02:33:59,520 besides history and ross's book touches 4347 02:34:03,270 --> 02:34:00,800 enough on history where 4348 02:34:04,389 --> 02:34:03,280 i took a lot of notes that i can refer 4349 02:34:06,630 --> 02:34:04,399 back to 4350 02:34:09,750 --> 02:34:06,640 as far as educating myself in some of 4351 02:34:13,830 --> 02:34:12,150 my question is who at these legacy corps 4352 02:34:15,349 --> 02:34:13,840 knows who at lockheed i don't know how 4353 02:34:16,950 --> 02:34:15,359 many people you would think majority of 4354 02:34:18,150 --> 02:34:16,960 lockheed if there's a craft at lockheed 4355 02:34:21,990 --> 02:34:18,160 or northrup 4356 02:34:24,230 --> 02:34:22,000 um you would think that majority do not 4357 02:34:25,910 --> 02:34:24,240 know you know i would think i don't know 4358 02:34:26,230 --> 02:34:25,920 if even steve justice would be into red 4359 02:34:32,790 --> 02:34:26,240 and 4360 02:34:37,030 --> 02:34:35,110 jeff luis was asked in an interview has 4361 02:34:38,070 --> 02:34:37,040 he ever met mccaslin but he gave a no 4362 02:34:41,349 --> 02:34:38,080 comment 4363 02:34:43,030 --> 02:34:41,359 there you go i would love to transcribe 4364 02:34:44,389 --> 02:34:43,040 all of those interviews there's just so 4365 02:34:46,550 --> 02:34:44,399 many i can do 4366 02:34:48,070 --> 02:34:46,560 all of our eric davis interviews but 4367 02:34:54,790 --> 02:34:48,080 little there's too many 4368 02:34:58,870 --> 02:34:57,190 i wonder why louise is able to talk 4369 02:35:00,469 --> 02:34:58,880 about the 23 minute video 4370 02:35:04,150 --> 02:35:00,479 but he's not allowed to describe the 4371 02:35:09,990 --> 02:35:07,750 yeah i i i agree 4372 02:35:11,349 --> 02:35:10,000 tell us what's in the video tell us what 4373 02:35:12,950 --> 02:35:11,359 i think he's just being careful i think 4374 02:35:16,550 --> 02:35:12,960 he wants some clarification 4375 02:35:19,830 --> 02:35:16,560 i think lou legally can 4376 02:35:20,630 --> 02:35:19,840 can discuss i haven't put any comments 4377 02:35:23,670 --> 02:35:20,640 up but 4378 02:35:25,349 --> 02:35:23,680 that one's going up that have just that 4379 02:35:29,270 --> 02:35:25,359 has ruined the stream 4380 02:35:32,309 --> 02:35:29,280 mr silva um 4381 02:35:33,750 --> 02:35:32,319 nicole did you get an ass 4382 02:35:36,309 --> 02:35:33,760 did he get a chance to ask eric davis if 4383 02:35:37,990 --> 02:35:36,319 he holds patents or has pending i have 4384 02:35:39,590 --> 02:35:38,000 not because he's on vacation right now 4385 02:35:42,070 --> 02:35:39,600 and he's not responding to my 4386 02:35:43,270 --> 02:35:42,080 messages but i will because he hasn't 4387 02:35:44,950 --> 02:35:43,280 looked at my last ones 4388 02:35:47,429 --> 02:35:44,960 when he's on vacation he does the smart 4389 02:35:49,190 --> 02:35:47,439 thing he avoids social media 4390 02:35:51,510 --> 02:35:49,200 which is a good thing to do which i have 4391 02:35:52,950 --> 02:35:51,520 to learn although i don't take vacations 4392 02:35:54,469 --> 02:35:52,960 right now so 4393 02:35:56,150 --> 02:35:54,479 it's tom leaking information in his 4394 02:35:57,670 --> 02:35:56,160 films yeah that's what he said he said 4395 02:35:59,429 --> 02:35:57,680 he's going to try to get information out 4396 02:36:01,030 --> 02:35:59,439 but the whole problem with delong is i 4397 02:36:01,349 --> 02:36:01,040 believe everything de long says as far 4398 02:36:02,950 --> 02:36:01,359 as 4399 02:36:04,710 --> 02:36:02,960 these people told him stuff but did they 4400 02:36:07,590 --> 02:36:04,720 lie to him is the question you know 4401 02:36:09,429 --> 02:36:07,600 kit green and mirageman says that they 4402 02:36:11,030 --> 02:36:09,439 put out this information 4403 02:36:12,550 --> 02:36:11,040 to make us think there's some scary 4404 02:36:14,550 --> 02:36:12,560 story but when the real story comes out 4405 02:36:15,670 --> 02:36:14,560 we'll say oh that's the real story oh i 4406 02:36:16,710 --> 02:36:15,680 thought it was something scary the real 4407 02:36:20,150 --> 02:36:16,720 story isn't that 4408 02:36:22,950 --> 02:36:20,160 that scary and they call it the um 4409 02:36:24,790 --> 02:36:22,960 i think kit called it the uh what the 4410 02:36:26,550 --> 02:36:24,800 heck is it called 4411 02:36:28,389 --> 02:36:26,560 i don't know but it's the base the core 4412 02:36:29,990 --> 02:36:28,399 story the core story 4413 02:36:31,510 --> 02:36:30,000 you know multiple extraterrestrial 4414 02:36:34,830 --> 02:36:31,520 groups we have some of their craft 4415 02:36:41,429 --> 02:36:34,840 they left that's it don't know if that's 4416 02:36:45,190 --> 02:36:43,110 can the stream be viewed later yeah i 4417 02:36:46,710 --> 02:36:45,200 think i think when i cut it off it just 4418 02:36:50,710 --> 02:36:46,720 goes to youtube 4419 02:36:54,309 --> 02:36:50,720 dutch blue eyes um so yeah go to sleep 4420 02:36:58,550 --> 02:36:57,030 i should have just got rid of all my 4421 02:36:59,990 --> 02:36:58,560 history questions and just stuck with 4422 02:37:01,830 --> 02:37:00,000 crash retrievals and i would have gotten 4423 02:37:06,230 --> 02:37:01,840 to more stuff 4424 02:37:15,349 --> 02:37:07,990 next year i mean i'm not going to bother 4425 02:37:18,469 --> 02:37:17,270 could lou be nitpicking with his answer 4426 02:37:20,950 --> 02:37:18,479 about not seeing a 4427 02:37:23,270 --> 02:37:20,960 craft he could be or he's just worried 4428 02:37:25,590 --> 02:37:23,280 about losing his 4429 02:37:27,510 --> 02:37:25,600 pension and his clearance and there's 4430 02:37:27,990 --> 02:37:27,520 absolutely no reason to risk that right 4431 02:37:29,990 --> 02:37:28,000 now 4432 02:37:32,230 --> 02:37:30,000 i think lou will share more and more as 4433 02:37:33,670 --> 02:37:32,240 he's done over the years i mean 4434 02:37:35,190 --> 02:37:33,680 the very beginning he wouldn't even talk 4435 02:37:37,830 --> 02:37:35,200 about the other videos now he's talking 4436 02:37:39,429 --> 02:37:37,840 about a 23-minute video so 4437 02:37:41,110 --> 02:37:39,439 hopefully danny sheen could get more 4438 02:37:43,349 --> 02:37:41,120 clarification on 4439 02:37:44,469 --> 02:37:43,359 the ig investigation and what he can and 4440 02:37:46,309 --> 02:37:44,479 cannot say 4441 02:37:48,309 --> 02:37:46,319 what's your opinion of la's latest book 4442 02:37:51,590 --> 02:37:48,319 i have it i haven't read it 4443 02:37:52,710 --> 02:37:51,600 um yeah and i also have the witnesses 4444 02:37:54,309 --> 02:37:52,720 book too 4445 02:37:56,309 --> 02:37:54,319 forget his name and it's overdue from 4446 02:37:58,230 --> 02:37:56,319 the library from new mexico 4447 02:37:59,830 --> 02:37:58,240 and i have to pay a big fine if i don't 4448 02:38:00,710 --> 02:37:59,840 return it i think it's like a hundred 4449 02:38:03,990 --> 02:38:00,720 bucks 4450 02:38:05,270 --> 02:38:04,000 um which i probably can read quicker 4451 02:38:07,110 --> 02:38:05,280 definitely quicker than ross's book 4452 02:38:10,630 --> 02:38:07,120 ross's book took me a while 4453 02:38:12,309 --> 02:38:10,640 because i'm a slow reader as i get older 4454 02:38:17,270 --> 02:38:12,319 i'm not trying to put up questions i'm 4455 02:38:20,630 --> 02:38:18,870 yeah i don't know what is the specific 4456 02:38:23,030 --> 02:38:20,640 nature of the security clearance in 4457 02:38:24,870 --> 02:38:23,040 terms of what he can and can't say 4458 02:38:26,790 --> 02:38:24,880 i don't know that's that's the question 4459 02:38:27,590 --> 02:38:26,800 you know it's like where does he draw 4460 02:38:29,590 --> 02:38:27,600 the line 4461 02:38:31,270 --> 02:38:29,600 lou elizonda what he can and can't say 4462 02:38:35,270 --> 02:38:31,280 um 4463 02:38:41,910 --> 02:38:38,710 yeah and chad he says luke says 4464 02:38:42,710 --> 02:38:41,920 i should put these things up says uh 4465 02:38:45,030 --> 02:38:42,720 what do i make 4466 02:38:46,630 --> 02:38:45,040 of lucine he believes it's important 4467 02:38:50,150 --> 02:38:46,640 that he says i believe 4468 02:38:51,510 --> 02:38:50,160 he didn't say no um 4469 02:38:53,510 --> 02:38:51,520 there's a difference like when dr eric 4470 02:38:54,870 --> 02:38:53,520 davis talks about meeting people in 4471 02:38:57,110 --> 02:38:54,880 these other programs and they share 4472 02:38:58,950 --> 02:38:57,120 information up to a point on what their 4473 02:39:00,070 --> 02:38:58,960 programs are doing i

02:40:37,269 --> 02:40:35,200 blockbuster 4517 02:40:38,469 --> 02:40:37,279 when i heard about that between that and 4518 02:40:41,429 --> 02:40:38,479 oak shannon 4519 02:40:43,110 --> 02:40:41,439 the wilson which i think is another lie 4520 02:40:44,550 --> 02:40:43,120 saying he doesn't know oak shan and he 4521 02:40:45,830 --> 02:40:44,560 obviously knows oak shannon 4522 02:40:48,550 -->

02:40:57,510 --> 02:40:52,479 towards tom wilson 4526 02:41:04,469 --> 02:40:59,510 corso how does corso fit into the story 4527 02:41:08,389 --> 02:41:06,150 i'll get to that in a second of course 4528 02:41:09,590 --> 02:41:08,399 by the way i bought corso's book sign 4529 02:41:11,030 --> 02:41:09,600 last year because i thought the whole 4530 02:41:12,630 --> 02:41:11,040 thing was going to break open and my 4531 02:41:13,590 --> 02:41:12,640 book would be worth more money but it 4532 02:41:16,230 --> 02:41:13,600 didn't happen 4533 02:41:17,510 --> 02:41:16,240 um corso fits in um i'm drawing a blank 4534 02:41:22,469 --> 02:41:17,520 right now i'll just tell you that 4535 02:41:26,950 --> 02:41:24,070 corso was given the responsibility of 4536 02:41:28,550 --> 02:41:26,960 taking some material from roswell and 4537 02:41:30,230 --> 02:41:28,560 feeding it out to other corporations so 4538 02:41:32,070 --> 02:41:30,240 they could reverse tech you know 4539 02:41:33,750 --> 02:41:32,080 reverse engineer it and some of the 4540 02:41:34,469 --> 02:41:33,760 stuff in the book is not accurate as far 4541 02:41:38,309 --> 02:41:34,479 as 4542 02:41:39,830 --> 02:41:38,319 technology in reverse engineering but 4543 02:41:42,469 --> 02:41:39,840 they're his notes supposedly very 4544 02:41:45,510 --> 02:41:42,479 accurate uh his diary or his journal and 4545 02:41:47,510 --> 02:41:45,520 that's online the book is a lot of added 4546 02:41:47,990 --> 02:41:47,520 stuff bill burns gets a lot of the flack 4547 02:41:50,309 --> 02:41:48,000 for that 4548 02:41:51,830 --> 02:41:50,319 and um so if you could find his and i've 4549 02:41:54,230 --> 02:41:51,840 tweeted out before but it's 4550 02:41:56,230 --> 02:41:54,240 corso's journal which is more concise 4551 02:41:59,030 --> 02:41:56,240 and it has a short part on roswell 4552 02:42:00,790 --> 02:41:59,040 which a lot of people like eric davis 4553 02:42:01,830 --> 02:42:00,800 has spoken about corso and they believe 4554 02:42:04,150 --> 02:42:01,840 him there's some people that don't 4555 02:42:05,910 --> 02:42:04,160 believe him this like john alexander 4556 02:42:08,070 --> 02:42:05,920 doesn't believe that brazil was 4557 02:42:11,030 --> 02:42:08,080 he believes roswell was a mogul balloon 4558 02:42:12,630 --> 02:42:11,040 so eric davis does not 4559 02:42:15,670 --> 02:42:12,640 and the only thing i've heard about 60 4560 02:42:17,190 --> 02:42:15,680 minutes is is uh 4561 02:42:18,790 --> 02:42:17,200 danny sheehan said there are two more 4562 02:42:19,429 --> 02:42:18,800 scheduled

02:44:12,710 --> 02:44:11,040 funny 4614 02:44:14,790 --> 02:44:12,720 melon in one of his interviews i think 4615 02:44:18,389 --> 02:44:14,800 it was with martin 4616 02:44:20,469 --> 02:44:18,399

--> 02:44:23,359 came to congress 4620 02:44:26,070 --> 02:44:24,880 and the representative he was working 4621 02:44:26,950 --> 02:44:26,080 for and he said they went into the 4622 02:44:29,429 --> 02:44:26,960 garbage 4623 02:44:30,550 --> 02:44:29,439 um if there's enough of us though it 4624 02:44:31,990 --> 02:44:30,560 would make a difference i just don't 4625 02:44:35,030 --> 02:44:32,000 think we have enough people 4626 02:44:37,110 --> 02:44:35,040 yet i don't think 4627 02:44:38,950 --> 02:44:37,120 i think we need congress to give 4628 02:44:40,309 --> 02:44:38,960 congress time to digest the info 4629 02:44:41,990 --> 02:44:40,319 with regular people i just think they're 4630 02:44:43,349 --> 02:44:42,000 working their jobs and 4631 02:44:45,030 --> 02:44:43,359 they can't worry about this right now 4632 02:44:46,710 --> 02:44:45,040 they need something to blow them away 4633 02:44:48,790 --> 02:44:46,720 they need the 23-minute video 4634 02:44:50,230 --> 02:44:48,800 if that somehow gets out that really 4635 02:44:52,150 --> 02:44:50,240 could push us to the next level 4636 02:44:57,990 --> 02:44:52,160 what that next level is what third gear 4637 02:45:03,429 --> 02:45:00,389 see ny tag you said thanks i don't even 4638 02:45:06,710 --> 02:45:03,439 remember what i just answered from you 4639 02:45:09,750 --> 02:45:06,720 because my mind is a is a is 4640 02:45:10,870 --> 02:45:09,760 crumbling from the past two days of just 4641 02:45:13,510 --> 02:45:10,880 cramming 4642 02:45:15,910 --> 02:45:13,520 ross's book and taking notes yeah if lou 4643 02:45:17,190 --> 02:45:15,920 ever ran for congress he talks about 4644 02:45:18,790 --> 02:45:17,200 they don't want me in congress they 4645 02:45:20,150 --> 02:45:18,800 don't want a dude like me in congress 4646 02:45:21,429 --> 02:45:20,160 that would be great but i'd rather have 4647 02:45:25,349 --> 02:45:21,439 him doing what he's doing now 4648 02:45:26,870 --> 02:45:25,359 but if he ran for congress and won 4649 02:45:30,710 --> 02:45:26,880 that would be amazing imagine his 4650 02:45:33,910 --> 02:45:30,720 interviews he would get massive coverage 4651 02:45:35,190 --> 02:45:33,920 there's still stigma now but i am going 4652 02:45:37,429 --> 02:45:35,200 to go eat 4653 02:45:39,190 --> 02:45:37,439 thanks everybody for hanging in there 4654 02:45:42,150 --> 02:45:39,200 for
