1 00:00:06,950 --> 00:00:05,120 welcome to tales from the rabbit hole my 2 00:00:09,080 --> 00:00:06,960 guest today is a repeat guest 3 00:00:11,690 --> 00:00:09,090 Stian Arneson who I believe was on 4 00:00:13,820 --> 00:00:11,700 episodes two and three or three and four 5 00:00:15,200 --> 00:00:13,830 we have very long conversation right 6 00:00:17,689 --> 00:00:15,210 back in the early days of the podcast 7 00:00:19,460 --> 00:00:17,699 where we talked mostly about 9/11 and 8 00:00:22,519 --> 00:00:19,470 some other things like crop circles and 9 00:00:25,460 --> 00:00:22,529 whatnot and I said stay in a copy of my 10 00:00:27,050 --> 00:00:25,470 book and he's been perusing it and he 11 00:00:28,550 --> 00:00:27,060 has a few notes and a few questions for 12 00:00:30,320 --> 00:00:28,560 me so we're gonna talk about that and 13 00:00:32,620 --> 00:00:30,330 maybe a little bit more about some of 14 00:00:34,639 --> 00:00:32,630 the other topics like 9/11 and whatnot 15 00:00:36,530 --> 00:00:34,649 dusty and welcome to tales from the 16 00:00:38,330 --> 00:00:36,540 rabbit hole thank you thank you good 17 00:00:40,549 --> 00:00:38,340 it'd be good to be back yeah it's good 18 00:00:42,130 --> 00:00:40,559 to see you again oh yeah I don't know 19 00:00:44,840 --> 00:00:42,140 where to start from 20 00:00:47,830 --> 00:00:44,850 but I got one question I really want to 21 00:00:52,939 --> 00:00:47,840 shoot off if that's okay go for it um 22 00:00:56,119 --> 00:00:52,949 you I gotta ask how would you define the 23 00:00:58,069 --> 00:00:56,129 term debunked what do you put into that 24 00:01:00,680 --> 00:00:58,079 what does that mean that something has 25 00:01:04,369 --> 00:01:00,690 been debunked well it means that one 26 00:01:07,609 --> 00:01:04,379 explanation for an event has been shown 27 00:01:10,820 --> 00:01:07,619 to be wrong so someone says I was 28 00:01:12,800 --> 00:01:10,830 abducted with aliens last night and you 29 00:01:14,359 --> 00:01:12,810 show the camera footage that share that 30 00:01:15,820 --> 00:01:14,369 they were just having a nightmare they 31 00:01:18,890 --> 00:01:15,830 were laying in the bed thrashing around 32 00:01:21,980 --> 00:01:18,900 that would be evidence that their claim 33 00:01:23,240 --> 00:01:21,990 was wrong or their claim about what 34 00:01:25,219 --> 00:01:23,250 happened that night was wrong instead of 35 00:01:26,719 --> 00:01:25,229 them being abducted they you know they 36 00:01:28,429 --> 00:01:26,729 are having a nightmare and you can prove 37 00:01:30,469 --> 00:01:28,439 this to them by showing them the video 38 00:01:32,840 --> 00:01:30,479 yes it's like debunking an explanation 39 00:01:34,490 --> 00:01:32,850 as or something a lot of people I think 40 00:01:36,020 --> 00:01:34,500 they get like when I say something's 41 00:01:38,749 --> 00:01:36,030 been debunked they think I mean the 42 00:01:40,730 --> 00:01:38,759 entire topic so now it's like say 43 00:01:42,649 --> 00:01:40,740 chemtrails like that I wouldn't say I've 44 00:01:44,899 --> 00:01:42,659 debunked chemtrails because that's kind 45 00:01:47,060 --> 00:01:44,909 of an impossible thing to do but you can 46 00:01:50,539 --> 00:01:47,070 debunk individual claims like if someone 47 00:01:52,609 --> 00:01:50,549 says contrails never persisted you can 48 00:01:54,560 --> 00:01:52,619 show them evidence that contrails did 49 00:01:56,600 --> 00:01:54,570 persist and then you could say that 50 00:01:59,209 --> 00:01:56,610 claim has been debunked that one small 51 00:02:02,139 --> 00:01:59,219 thing has been debunked so it's showing 52 00:02:04,969 --> 00:02:02,149 like individual things to be wrong 53 00:02:08,109 --> 00:02:04,979 essentially right right is it but is it 54 00:02:12,290 --> 00:02:08,119 possible that the term the bunk can be 55 00:02:13,809 --> 00:02:12,300 overly used in a way in regards to maybe 56 00:02:16,449 --> 00:02:13,819 that what is actually happening is 57 00:02:19,390 --> 00:02:16,459 you in some cases are presenting 58 00:02:21,940 --> 00:02:19,400 alternative theories to explain a 59 00:02:24,819 --> 00:02:21,950 phenomenon but that it is in fact maybe 60 00:02:27,339 --> 00:02:24,829 not debunked in some cases but that it 61 00:02:29,559 --> 00:02:27,349 is because I've seen through the book 62 00:02:32,190 --> 00:02:29,569 that you when you use the term in in 63 00:02:34,420 --> 00:02:32,200 many occasions I find it completely 64 00:02:36,729 --> 00:02:34,430 objectively correct to use the term 65 00:02:40,000 --> 00:02:36,739 debunked like just example you gave that 66 00:02:43,270 --> 00:02:40,010 you can you can give such a radical 67 00:02:45,520 --> 00:02:43,280 different explanation but very heavy 68 00:02:47,409 --> 00:02:45,530 weighing evidence which is like for 69 00:02:49,869 --> 00:02:47,419 example filming this individual having 70 00:02:53,050 --> 00:02:49,879 an alien abduction but when you're 71 00:02:54,159 --> 00:02:53,060 talking about for example a collapse of 72 00:02:57,009 --> 00:02:54,169 the clean towers 73 00:02:58,750 --> 00:02:57,019 then you're presenting a what I would 74 00:03:02,649 --> 00:02:58,760 consider to be an alternative 75 00:03:06,429 --> 00:03:02,659 explanation and maybe not debunked I 76 00:03:11,619 --> 00:03:06,439 would consider that a an ultimate kind 77 00:03:14,050 --> 00:03:11,629 of term to use almost like a paryanthaam 78 00:03:17,259 --> 00:03:14,060 in regards to the subject in and of 79 00:03:19,659 --> 00:03:17,269 itself because none of us have are there 80 00:03:22,360 --> 00:03:19,669 physically none of us have been there 81 00:03:26,080 --> 00:03:22,370 none of us are able to go in today and 82 00:03:28,929 --> 00:03:26,090 see what was really going on so all were 83 00:03:32,819 --> 00:03:28,939 left with his pieces and a puzzle and I 84 00:03:37,119 --> 00:03:32,829 think your theories are parts of a 85 00:03:38,949 --> 00:03:37,129 pieces of that puzzle that can maybe fit 86 00:03:41,890 --> 00:03:38,959 into explaining what we're actually 87 00:03:43,629 --> 00:03:41,900 seeing well I don't think it's been 88 00:03:45,249 --> 00:03:43,639 debunked if you know what yeah it's no I 89 00:03:47,020 --> 00:03:45,259 I think I think I know what you mean 90 00:03:50,020 --> 00:03:47,030 like I know obviously that the title of 91 00:03:51,939 --> 00:03:50,030 my book escaping the rabbit hole is how 92 00:03:54,249 --> 00:03:51,949 to debunk conspiracy theories using 93 00:03:57,399 --> 00:03:54,259 facts logic and respect now I can see 94 00:03:59,530 --> 00:03:57,409 out on that that's that subtitle seems 95 00:04:02,080 --> 00:03:59,540 like it's an overarching thing like I've 96 00:04:03,580 --> 00:04:02,090 debunked 9/11 or I've debunked this or 97 00:04:06,309 --> 00:04:03,590 that right debunked the controlled 98 00:04:08,499 --> 00:04:06,319 demolition theory of 9/11 when you know 99 00:04:11,020 --> 00:04:08,509 really I haven't I'm gonna pretend about 100 00:04:13,270 --> 00:04:11,030 it well and what I've done really is 101 00:04:15,399 --> 00:04:13,280 just examine the various claims of 102 00:04:18,249 --> 00:04:15,409 evidence behind the conspiracy theory 103 00:04:20,770 --> 00:04:18,259 and where possible I've shown that these 104 00:04:22,839 --> 00:04:20,780 these claims of evidence don't hold up 105 00:04:25,510 --> 00:04:22,849 or I provided an alternative explanation 106 00:04:27,280 --> 00:04:25,520 free I'd take for example the claim 107 00:04:29,410 --> 00:04:27,290 that's these little 108 00:04:31,810 --> 00:04:29,420 red and gray flakes that people are 109 00:04:34,600 --> 00:04:31,820 found in the dust of World Trade Center 110 00:04:36,970 --> 00:04:34,610 the book Trade Center site people claim 111 00:04:39,100 --> 00:04:36,980 that these these these things are 112 00:04:41,230 --> 00:04:39,110 exploding absolutely so kind of yet some 113 00:04:42,280 --> 00:04:41,240 kind of evidence of permitting material 114 00:04:44,020 --> 00:04:42,290 they they say it's not actually 115 00:04:45,610 --> 00:04:44,030 explosives it's just something that when 116 00:04:47,530 --> 00:04:45,620 you heat it up it catches fire and it 117 00:04:49,380 --> 00:04:47,540 burns and they describe it as being 118 00:04:52,630 --> 00:04:49,390 Fermi tick and they say this is evidence 119 00:04:55,060 --> 00:04:52,640 because there's so much of it that it is 120 00:04:56,920 --> 00:04:55,070 you know there are explosives and have I 121 00:04:58,530 --> 00:04:56,930 don't that and you not really know I 122 00:05:02,080 --> 00:04:58,540 mean I've put forward an alternative 123 00:05:04,420 --> 00:05:02,090 hypothesis that it's paint you know and 124 00:05:07,590 --> 00:05:04,430 I offer as evidence the fact that when I 125 00:05:11,080 --> 00:05:07,600 hit my my wheelbarrow with a hammer 126 00:05:12,520 --> 00:05:11,090 identical-looking flakes like fell off 127 00:05:15,370 --> 00:05:12,530 my wheelbarrow have a red painted 128 00:05:17,260 --> 00:05:15,380 wheelbarrow is the exact same color as 129 00:05:21,010 --> 00:05:17,270 the steel in the World Trade Center 130 00:05:23,680 --> 00:05:21,020 I haven't debunked that theory there's 131 00:05:25,840 --> 00:05:23,690 an alternative explanation and I pointed 132 00:05:28,270 --> 00:05:25,850 out kind of the where the evidence is 133 00:05:29,530 --> 00:05:28,280 lacking for one theory but yeah I 134 00:05:31,090 --> 00:05:29,540 wouldn't say I approved a hundred 135 00:05:33,070 --> 00:05:31,100 percent that every single red and gray 136 00:05:35,890 --> 00:05:33,080 flake in the dust is actually paint 137 00:05:37,750 --> 00:05:35,900 obviously some of them are going to be 138 00:05:39,160 --> 00:05:37,760 paint because they have the same paint 139 00:05:40,680 --> 00:05:39,170 on the steel as they have on my 140 00:05:43,990 --> 00:05:40,690 wheelbarrow and when you knock it off 141 00:05:47,440 --> 00:05:44,000 you will get these these paint things so 142 00:05:49,870 --> 00:05:47,450 yeah I see I do see your problems with 143 00:05:51,430 --> 00:05:49,880 using the term debunked and you know to 144 00:05:54,280 --> 00:05:51,440 be honest I'm kind of shying away from 145 00:05:57,100 --> 00:05:54,290 it a bit nowadays simply because I can't 146 00:05:59,590 --> 00:05:57,110 people do react against it so I I do 147 00:06:02,860 --> 00:05:59,600 things like I will title things with a 148 00:06:03,520 --> 00:06:02,870 question like here's this really this 149 00:06:07,630 --> 00:06:03,530 yeah 150 00:06:11,200 --> 00:06:07,640 like for example and then examine the 151 00:06:13,150 --> 00:06:11,210 evidence so yeah it's a problem you talk 152 00:06:15,220 --> 00:06:13,160 a lot about a group psychology in the 153 00:06:17,830 --> 00:06:15,230 book and it's been it's brought up many 154 00:06:21,960 --> 00:06:17,840 times and I enjoy that quite a bit but I 155 00:06:25,860 --> 00:06:21,970 also see that in in in the group mind of 156 00:06:29,200 --> 00:06:25,870 skeptics or so-called debunk news they 157 00:06:31,270 --> 00:06:29,210 they cling on to what you say and they 158 00:06:34,120 --> 00:06:31,280 bring it forth in discussions and 159 00:06:36,220 --> 00:06:34,130 debates and they use the term well this 160 00:06:38,710 --> 00:06:36,230 has been debunked just check here make 161 00:06:40,840 --> 00:06:38,720 West blah blah blah this and this so you 162 00:06:41,080 --> 00:06:40,850 get this groupthink within your own and 163 00:06:44,680 --> 00:06:41,090 by 164 00:06:48,070 --> 00:06:44,690 I feel people they do look up to your 165 00:06:51,510 --> 00:06:48,080 analysis and ways of explanations and 166 00:06:56,280 --> 00:06:51,520 and they take the same kind of 167 00:06:58,629 --> 00:06:56,290 uncritical path I feel to do kind of 168 00:07:00,219 --> 00:06:58,639 where they take their explanations and 169 00:07:02,200 --> 00:07:00,229 feel like ok it's just been explained 170 00:07:04,629 --> 00:07:02,210 away now I can go back to my everyday 171 00:07:06,219 --> 00:07:04,639 routine and you know everything's fine 172 00:07:09,189 --> 00:07:06,229 it's not it's not you know it's not what 173 00:07:12,040 --> 00:07:09,199 I used to think it was and I find that 174 00:07:14,260 --> 00:07:12,050 to be part of the same phenomenon that 175 00:07:16,719 --> 00:07:14,270 you see within these conspiratorial 176 00:07:19,270 --> 00:07:16,729 groups as well that they they find 177 00:07:22,390 --> 00:07:19,280 allies of how they want to view the 178 00:07:24,129 --> 00:07:22,400 world and when they do that they become 179 00:07:24,670 --> 00:07:24,139 uncritical you become part of a group 180 00:07:27,730 --> 00:07:24,680 think 181 00:07:29,469 --> 00:07:27,740 do you see that in a way I do actually 182 00:07:32,260 --> 00:07:29,479 yeah and actually funny you should 183 00:07:35,080 --> 00:07:32,270 mention this topic because it came up 184 00:07:38,440 --> 00:07:35,090 recently someone D and me on Twitter and 185 00:07:42,070 --> 00:07:38,450 they pointed to the French Wikipedia 186 00:07:44,379 --> 00:07:42,080 page for these the the UFO the nimitz 187 00:07:47,379 --> 00:07:44,389 UFO thing where in these these videos of 188 00:07:49,300 --> 00:07:47,389 UFOs have been released like like like a 189 00:07:51,610 --> 00:07:49,310 year or so ago and people say it's like 190 00:07:54,700 --> 00:07:51,620 real evidence of UFOs so one on the 191 00:07:57,790 --> 00:07:54,710 french wikipedia page posted a link to 192 00:07:59,529 --> 00:07:57,800 my site on in the article and said meta 193 00:08:01,540 --> 00:07:59,539 bank has done an analysis of these 194 00:08:04,150 --> 00:08:01,550 videos and shown them to be a hoax 195 00:08:05,080 --> 00:08:04,160 which isn't what i did i didn't show 196 00:08:07,510 --> 00:08:05,090 them to be a hoax 197 00:08:09,310 --> 00:08:07,520 I presented alternative explanations for 198 00:08:11,140 --> 00:08:09,320 what they'd be like you know it's 199 00:08:13,180 --> 00:08:11,150 probably not a UFO is probably a distal 200 00:08:15,510 --> 00:08:13,190 plane or this other video it's a balloon 201 00:08:17,950 --> 00:08:15,520 I didn't say any of them were a hoax 202 00:08:19,420 --> 00:08:17,960 mm-hmm and then then there's some kind 203 00:08:21,310 --> 00:08:19,430 of edit war going on apparently on the 204 00:08:23,800 --> 00:08:21,320 French Wikipedia page and of course it's 205 00:08:25,839 --> 00:08:23,810 in French yeah yeah and it's about about 206 00:08:28,450 --> 00:08:25,849 me anyway so I can't really edit it but 207 00:08:30,550 --> 00:08:28,460 people have taken what I've said and 208 00:08:33,550 --> 00:08:30,560 they've kind of misconstrued it as being 209 00:08:35,350 --> 00:08:33,560 you know 100% evidence for their point 210 00:08:37,659 --> 00:08:35,360 of view so these people obviously UFO 211 00:08:39,760 --> 00:08:37,669 skeptics and they go that's a hoax like 212 00:08:41,860 --> 00:08:39,770 Nick West or Medibank is proved it with 213 00:08:44,170 --> 00:08:41,870 his videos which which I'll show you in 214 00:08:47,320 --> 00:08:44,180 my video is how titles like is the 215 00:08:49,690 --> 00:08:47,330 nimitz UFO a plane not like exactly fo 216 00:08:52,930 --> 00:08:49,700 nimitz is video is a hoax 217 00:08:54,220 --> 00:08:52,940 so yeah grass bones or the other 218 00:08:58,000 --> 00:08:54,230 explanation 219 00:08:59,740 --> 00:08:58,010 yeah it's it's so similar to what 220 00:09:01,930 --> 00:08:59,750 someone would say that went on YouTube 221 00:09:04,000 --> 00:09:01,940 and just saw a video that oh I saw this 222 00:09:05,830 --> 00:09:04,010 video explaining and proving that 9/11 223 00:09:09,010 --> 00:09:05,840 was an inside job I mean it's you've got 224 00:09:13,030 --> 00:09:09,020 hundreds of scientists saying it is it's 225 00:09:15,190 --> 00:09:13,040 its side of human mentality that it 226 00:09:18,120 --> 00:09:15,200 creates teams and when you talk about 227 00:09:20,260 --> 00:09:18,130 polarization I see that your followers 228 00:09:22,630 --> 00:09:20,270 quote/unquote take part in that same 229 00:09:25,440 --> 00:09:22,640 game where they pick a team and they 230 00:09:28,990 --> 00:09:25,450 take part in that skepticism team and 231 00:09:32,500 --> 00:09:29,000 when when that happens they you get this 232 00:09:34,930 --> 00:09:32,510 opposition and you get this very what 233 00:09:36,700 --> 00:09:34,940 would you say intense and not practical 234 00:09:39,130 --> 00:09:36,710 debate on the Internet because you get 235 00:09:41,500 --> 00:09:39,140 these two sides that have kind of their 236 00:09:43,030 --> 00:09:41,510 idols like you become in a way to these 237 00:09:45,150 --> 00:09:43,040 people because I see more and more 238 00:09:48,430 --> 00:09:45,160 quoting you just like you mentioned and 239 00:09:52,210 --> 00:09:48,440 I'm wondering if your readers of your 240 00:09:54,610 --> 00:09:52,220 debunks are not critical towards you as 241 00:09:58,210 --> 00:09:54,620 well or your theories then then it 242 00:10:00,820 --> 00:09:58,220 becomes a team issue I feel for example 243 00:10:04,060 --> 00:10:00,830 you you say that you you write in your 244 00:10:06,700 --> 00:10:04,070 book that I bother ID bunk to stave off 245 00:10:08,220 --> 00:10:06,710 and spare others from this harm of 246 00:10:10,920 --> 00:10:08,230 getting into the rabbit hole 247 00:10:14,500 --> 00:10:10,930 uncritically of conspiracy theories 248 00:10:16,390 --> 00:10:14,510 quote while it is perhaps just a drop in 249 00:10:19,870 --> 00:10:16,400 the ocean to make the world a better 250 00:10:21,400 --> 00:10:19,880 place but I think that in that process 251 00:10:23,530 --> 00:10:21,410 of trying to make the world a better 252 00:10:27,130 --> 00:10:23,540 place the solutions that we come up with 253 00:10:29,680 --> 00:10:27,140 have unimaginable consequences as to how 254 00:10:32,080 --> 00:10:29,690 people perceive your ways of 255 00:10:36,070 --> 00:10:32,090 interpreting and projecting new theories 256 00:10:38,170 --> 00:10:36,080 they it becomes the palette Aryan in a 257 00:10:40,570 --> 00:10:38,180 way comes a hundred percent they feel it 258 00:10:41,230 --> 00:10:40,580 seems well yeah that's obviously not my 259 00:10:43,870 --> 00:10:41,240 intent 260 00:10:45,760 --> 00:10:43,880 but I think it's inevitable that you're 261 00:10:47,860 --> 00:10:45,770 gonna get a range of interpretations of 262 00:10:51,240 --> 00:10:47,870 things and you know most people don't 263 00:10:54,610 --> 00:10:51,250 spend very much time on these topics 264 00:10:57,010 --> 00:10:54,620 like you and I were very interested in 265 00:11:01,000 --> 00:10:57,020 these topics near strange esoteric 266 00:11:03,640 --> 00:11:01,010 topics like 9/11 and like like UFOs even 267 00:11:06,300 --> 00:11:03,650 and so we personally have spent many 268 00:11:07,929 --> 00:11:06,310 many hours and days you know years 269 00:11:11,199 --> 00:11:07,939 reading about them 270 00:11:13,449 --> 00:11:11,209 very familiar with them most people are 271 00:11:16,119 --> 00:11:13,459 not and they just have a passing 272 00:11:17,919 --> 00:11:16,129 acquaintance with with the topic and 273 00:11:20,379 --> 00:11:17,929 they already have a preformed opinion 274 00:11:22,389 --> 00:11:20,389 one way or the other about what what the 275 00:11:23,769 --> 00:11:22,399 reality is they think yeah the UFO it's 276 00:11:25,449 --> 00:11:23,779 a silly nonsense or do you think oh 277 00:11:27,339 --> 00:11:25,459 there's probably aliens out there or 278 00:11:28,689 --> 00:11:27,349 they think oh yeah yeah aliens are 279 00:11:31,359 --> 00:11:28,699 definitely visiting us because I've seen 280 00:11:32,889 --> 00:11:31,369 it on on the History Channel and yeah 281 00:11:34,299 --> 00:11:32,899 they have these you know simplistic 282 00:11:35,859 --> 00:11:34,309 interpretations but they're not really 283 00:11:39,009 --> 00:11:35,869 familiar with the real depth of the 284 00:11:40,359 --> 00:11:39,019 evidence and so they won't tend to when 285 00:11:43,059 --> 00:11:40,369 they get in into an argument with 286 00:11:46,799 --> 00:11:43,069 somebody they will they will gravitate 287 00:11:49,509 --> 00:11:46,809 to someone else who gives an explanation 288 00:11:51,669 --> 00:11:49,519 so they will say like you know look at 289 00:11:53,619 --> 00:11:51,679 architects and engineers for 9/11 truth 290 00:11:54,609 --> 00:11:53,629 they've they've explained it all you 291 00:11:56,499 --> 00:11:54,619 know I haven't read any of their 292 00:11:58,059 --> 00:11:56,509 explanations but I know that there's 293 00:11:59,829 --> 00:11:58,069 lots of them and they've explained or 294 00:12:01,899 --> 00:11:59,839 you know look at Mickey West he's got 295 00:12:05,349 --> 00:12:01,909 like you know 15 videos explaining why 296 00:12:07,359 --> 00:12:05,359 those UFOs or just plain some things so 297 00:12:09,809 --> 00:12:07,369 you know that's just who I'm gonna go 298 00:12:13,359 --> 00:12:09,819 with I think the people who actually 299 00:12:16,059 --> 00:12:13,369 look into it in into more depth realize 300 00:12:18,159 --> 00:12:16,069 that you don't get absolute answers on 301 00:12:20,559 --> 00:12:18,169 one side or the other mm-hmm but there's 302 00:12:22,749 --> 00:12:20,569 certainly a danger for people who are 303 00:12:24,309 --> 00:12:22,759 just kind of have a passing acquaintance 304 00:12:26,219 --> 00:12:24,319 with the theory and who just want to 305 00:12:28,479 --> 00:12:26,229 like slap somebody down on on Twitter 306 00:12:30,849 --> 00:12:28,489 they're gonna just grab something and 307 00:12:33,699 --> 00:12:30,859 then sailing a look at this video but 308 00:12:35,619 --> 00:12:33,709 yeah I don't really see the totalitarian 309 00:12:37,779 --> 00:12:35,629 aspects of it that you're saying because 310 00:12:39,969 --> 00:12:37,789 it's it's not like my I have this horde 311 00:12:42,489 --> 00:12:39,979 of followers who are all you know ditto 312 00:12:45,399 --> 00:12:42,499 heads like they say for followers of run 313 00:12:46,779 --> 00:12:45,409 by a detailee so if they say the same I 314 00:12:47,919 --> 00:12:46,789 agree with whatever this person says 315 00:12:49,479 --> 00:12:47,929 that you know I don't get that i 316 00:12:52,029 --> 00:12:49,489 actually get because i cover lots of 317 00:12:54,339 --> 00:12:52,039 different topics i get some people who 318 00:12:55,960 --> 00:12:54,349 believe me strongly on one topic and 319 00:12:58,779 --> 00:12:55,970 then think I'm a complete idiot 320 00:13:01,779 --> 00:12:58,789 on another topic yeah give this the UFO 321 00:13:04,299 --> 00:13:01,789 people are generally on board with my 322 00:13:05,739 --> 00:13:04,309 chemtrail and 9/11 debunking but they 323 00:13:08,079 --> 00:13:05,749 think I'm a complete idiot for not 324 00:13:10,299 --> 00:13:08,089 believing in UFOs and conversely a lot 325 00:13:12,999 --> 00:13:10,309 of the 9/11 people are not UFO people 326 00:13:14,949 --> 00:13:13,009 and they think that UFOs are just like 327 00:13:17,949 --> 00:13:14,959 silly nonsense that distracts from the 328 00:13:19,869 --> 00:13:17,959 serious issue of 9/11 so I don't have 329 00:13:21,440 --> 00:13:19,879 this monolithic following who believes 330 00:13:22,880 --> 00:13:21,450 everything that I say no 331 00:13:25,460 --> 00:13:22,890 I don't think you have either it's just 332 00:13:27,680 --> 00:13:25,470 I don't know an attitude from those 333 00:13:30,130 --> 00:13:27,690 different groupings that do support some 334 00:13:32,720 --> 00:13:30,140 of your theories that become 335 00:13:35,330 --> 00:13:32,730 totalitarian when they tried to convey 336 00:13:37,880 --> 00:13:35,340 their message as in totalitarian in a 337 00:13:41,210 --> 00:13:37,890 way of as if you had the ultimate 338 00:13:45,980 --> 00:13:41,220 explanation of this just one theory or 339 00:13:49,670 --> 00:13:45,990 this theory or you talked about how the 340 00:13:51,740 --> 00:13:49,680 term conspiracy theorist is according to 341 00:13:54,140 --> 00:13:51,750 a scientist that I completely forgot the 342 00:13:57,350 --> 00:13:54,150 name of now in your book that he thinks 343 00:14:00,470 --> 00:13:57,360 that the perm conspiracy theorist is is 344 00:14:04,330 --> 00:14:00,480 neutral in its rhetoric term it's it's 345 00:14:06,560 --> 00:14:04,340 not belittling anyone it's not it's not 346 00:14:10,820 --> 00:14:06,570 thinking of someone as stupid or 347 00:14:16,700 --> 00:14:10,830 anything in that way but it has by I 348 00:14:21,260 --> 00:14:16,710 think culture and by people and media 349 00:14:23,390 --> 00:14:21,270 and and and this sceptics and even by 350 00:14:25,160 --> 00:14:23,400 some governments that the term 351 00:14:31,550 --> 00:14:25,170 conspiracy theorist have has been 352 00:14:34,460 --> 00:14:31,560 twisted into this taboo case stamp on 353 00:14:36,830 --> 00:14:34,470 people who are associated with that term 354 00:14:38,870 --> 00:14:36,840 conspiracy theorists and and I have a 355 00:14:40,550 --> 00:14:38,880 compassion for those people in a way 356 00:14:44,780 --> 00:14:40,560 where they are trying to communicate 357 00:14:46,340 --> 00:14:44,790 real conspiracies like for example we 358 00:14:48,920 --> 00:14:46,350 talked about this last time as well but 359 00:14:52,220 --> 00:14:48,930 now with Julian Assange a situation in 360 00:14:55,180 --> 00:14:52,230 the UK and the rape case being dropped 361 00:14:57,830 --> 00:14:55,190 and how this case has developed what 362 00:14:59,270 --> 00:14:57,840 information has come out that emails 363 00:15:02,120 --> 00:14:59,280 were deleted from the Justice Department 364 00:15:04,280 --> 00:15:02,130 in in the UK as to how what 365 00:15:06,860 --> 00:15:04,290 communication and they had with the UK 366 00:15:09,020 --> 00:15:06,870 government and how they were pushing 367 00:15:10,580 --> 00:15:09,030 Swedish authorities to pursue this rape 368 00:15:12,590 --> 00:15:10,590 case and so on and so on real 369 00:15:15,920 --> 00:15:12,600 conspiracies but if you bring these 370 00:15:18,440 --> 00:15:15,930 issues up in certain media channels and 371 00:15:21,050 --> 00:15:18,450 so in political arenas you are stamping 372 00:15:23,990 --> 00:15:21,060 conspiracy theorists and I think that 373 00:15:26,240 --> 00:15:24,000 there is a real danger in that stamp 374 00:15:30,830 --> 00:15:26,250 because it did not bringing up real 375 00:15:33,320 --> 00:15:30,840 debate actually rose yeah it's a label 376 00:15:34,040 --> 00:15:33,330 and I know and I did discuss this in the 377 00:15:35,929 --> 00:15:34,050 book 378 00:15:38,329 --> 00:15:35,939 I mean that what it boils down to is is 379 00:15:40,489 --> 00:15:38,339 what term are you going to use instead 380 00:15:43,970 --> 00:15:40,499 or are you going to use no term and and 381 00:15:46,729 --> 00:15:43,980 not try to classify people who believe 382 00:15:49,309 --> 00:15:46,739 in 9/11 and chemtrails or secret 383 00:15:51,319 --> 00:15:49,319 government plots and things like that do 384 00:15:54,350 --> 00:15:51,329 we just simply not have a term that 385 00:15:56,210 --> 00:15:54,360 encompasses them you know 9/11 truth 386 00:15:57,499 --> 00:15:56,220 people call themselves 387 00:16:03,439 --> 00:15:57,509 I don't know that call themself truth 388 00:16:06,579 --> 00:16:03,449 activists ruthless truthers but some 389 00:16:10,519 --> 00:16:06,589 people think that truthers is is 390 00:16:12,769 --> 00:16:10,529 acquired a derogatory term as well yeah 391 00:16:15,530 --> 00:16:12,779 I've heard that from people who are in 392 00:16:17,179 --> 00:16:15,540 9/11 truthers and then they say well 393 00:16:19,249 --> 00:16:17,189 don't call me a truther because that's 394 00:16:21,079 --> 00:16:19,259 just like what they call the crazy 395 00:16:22,989 --> 00:16:21,089 people like they say that the people who 396 00:16:26,479 --> 00:16:22,999 believe the towers were evaporated are 397 00:16:27,919 --> 00:16:26,489 truthers and so my association it gets 398 00:16:29,809 --> 00:16:27,929 this stigma and that's kind of what 399 00:16:31,669 --> 00:16:29,819 happened with conspiracy theorists is 400 00:16:34,609 --> 00:16:31,679 that because it encompasses the entire 401 00:16:37,090 --> 00:16:34,619 spectrum of conspiracy theories like 402 00:16:40,699 --> 00:16:37,100 everything up to you know the Flat Earth 403 00:16:42,410 --> 00:16:40,709 it taints everything below that and I 404 00:16:44,569 --> 00:16:42,420 know this for everybody who is a 405 00:16:46,429 --> 00:16:44,579 conspiracy theorist without you know any 406 00:16:47,419 --> 00:16:46,439 stigma attached to that term someone who 407 00:16:48,829 --> 00:16:47,429 believes in some kind of conspiracy 408 00:16:49,879 --> 00:16:48,839 because there are real conspiracies 409 00:16:51,949 --> 00:16:49,889 obviously there's lots of real 410 00:16:53,389 --> 00:16:51,959 conspiracies lots of corruption in the 411 00:16:56,119 --> 00:16:53,399 government there's lots of you know 412 00:16:57,499 --> 00:16:56,129 people self-dealing I see it all the 413 00:17:00,169 --> 00:16:57,509 time there's very for struck for stating 414 00:17:03,019 --> 00:17:00,179 frustrating for them yeah that they they 415 00:17:04,879 --> 00:17:03,029 they get labeled as something which they 416 00:17:08,029 --> 00:17:04,889 don't feel that they are they feel that 417 00:17:10,159 --> 00:17:08,039 they are very genuine concerned yeah you 418 00:17:11,689 --> 00:17:10,169 know again it's a term that's reasonably 419 00:17:13,309 --> 00:17:11,699 well understood as to what we're talking 420 00:17:15,379 --> 00:17:13,319 about there's people who are saying 421 00:17:17,510 --> 00:17:15,389 there's a big conspiracy at the upper 422 00:17:20,329 --> 00:17:17,520 levels of government that explains these 423 00:17:22,730 --> 00:17:20,339 events yeah and how else are we going to 424 00:17:25,750 --> 00:17:22,740 refer to these types of theories in 425 00:17:28,850 --> 00:17:25,760 general other than busy theories like 426 00:17:30,860 --> 00:17:28,860 government theories or power theories or 427 00:17:32,990 --> 00:17:30,870 you know you just come up with some new 428 00:17:35,720 --> 00:17:33,000 term and like I say in the book you come 429 00:17:38,090 --> 00:17:35,730 up with a new term to explain it and 430 00:17:40,279 --> 00:17:38,100 then that's a like truther acquires some 431 00:17:42,529 --> 00:17:40,289 kind of stigma because you know it's 432 00:17:42,980 --> 00:17:42,539 only go somewhere that's a bit a bit 433 00:17:45,580 --> 00:17:42,990 extreme 434 00:17:47,930 --> 00:17:45,590 it's like inevitable in a way that you 435 00:17:51,710 --> 00:17:47,940 yeah whatever term you come up with 436 00:17:54,169 --> 00:17:51,720 you can always find it I'll get Cory but 437 00:17:56,509 --> 00:17:54,179 but but the the conspiracy theorist term 438 00:18:00,019 --> 00:17:56,519 in you said that it's a well-established 439 00:18:02,480 --> 00:18:00,029 and understood term but if I go on the 440 00:18:04,549 --> 00:18:02,490 street or if I go out and have a beer 441 00:18:06,470 --> 00:18:04,559 with random people and I ask them what 442 00:18:08,659 --> 00:18:06,480 do you what do you think of conspiracy 443 00:18:10,789 --> 00:18:08,669 theorists is what do you associate with 444 00:18:13,610 --> 00:18:10,799 that and then they immediately think of 445 00:18:17,690 --> 00:18:13,620 maybe Flat Earth we didn't land on the 446 00:18:20,240 --> 00:18:17,700 moon they had this general idea given to 447 00:18:24,320 --> 00:18:20,250 them usually from my interpretation the 448 00:18:27,769 --> 00:18:24,330 media that is serving them the label in 449 00:18:30,019 --> 00:18:27,779 an uncritical way because if if I was to 450 00:18:32,590 --> 00:18:30,029 call myself a conspiracy theorist if I 451 00:18:36,289 --> 00:18:32,600 investigate government corruption then 452 00:18:38,779 --> 00:18:36,299 that can't even be associated with Flat 453 00:18:41,690 --> 00:18:38,789 Earth and and the moon landings being 454 00:18:44,389 --> 00:18:41,700 staged in my opinion so yeah I think 455 00:18:46,940 --> 00:18:44,399 it's a I don't think it is a well 456 00:18:50,570 --> 00:18:46,950 understood term I think it is a term 457 00:18:53,360 --> 00:18:50,580 that has been manipulated and twisted 458 00:18:56,600 --> 00:18:53,370 and by both natural and human causes and 459 00:19:00,080 --> 00:18:56,610 and maybe by even sinister causes to 460 00:19:04,310 --> 00:19:00,090 create perhaps confusion in in the land 461 00:19:07,340 --> 00:19:04,320 of labels so to speak do well yeah we're 462 00:19:09,440 --> 00:19:07,350 possible I try to use a more precise 463 00:19:13,009 --> 00:19:09,450 term like if I'm talking about 9/11 464 00:19:15,799 --> 00:19:13,019 truth I will usually refer them to them 465 00:19:18,019 --> 00:19:15,809 as truthers if it's a more extreme 466 00:19:22,009 --> 00:19:18,029 conspiracy theory I will say things like 467 00:19:24,169 --> 00:19:22,019 a 9/11 conspiracy theorist and like and 468 00:19:26,810 --> 00:19:24,179 the controlled demolition theory I 469 00:19:29,749 --> 00:19:26,820 considered that to be here something 470 00:19:33,080 --> 00:19:29,759 that is from my perspective demonstrated 471 00:19:35,269 --> 00:19:33,090 to be completely baseless and I would 472 00:19:37,009 --> 00:19:35,279 describe that as a conspiracy theory 473 00:19:39,560 --> 00:19:37,019 without reservation and that I think 474 00:19:40,970 --> 00:19:39,570 that it is you know it's this extreme 475 00:19:42,590 --> 00:19:40,980 theory about the upper levels of 476 00:19:43,850 --> 00:19:42,600 government doing this incredible thing 477 00:19:47,509 --> 00:19:43,860 that was really really difficult to pull 478 00:19:49,249 --> 00:19:47,519 off and it's all covered up and the the 479 00:19:52,100 --> 00:19:49,259 events of 9/11 all explained by this 480 00:19:54,110 --> 00:19:52,110 this convoluted conspiracy theory that 481 00:19:55,570 --> 00:19:54,120 involves pre planting explosives in the 482 00:19:57,889 --> 00:19:55,580 World Trade Center and having planes 483 00:19:59,749 --> 00:19:57,899 piloted by remote control flying into 484 00:20:00,840 --> 00:19:59,759 them at the right point having the the 485 00:20:02,340 --> 00:20:00,850 floors burned for 486 00:20:03,870 --> 00:20:02,350 an hour and then having the buildings 487 00:20:08,190 --> 00:20:03,880 collapse starting on the floors that 488 00:20:09,750 --> 00:20:08,200 were on liar weather plane hit and then 489 00:20:12,720 --> 00:20:09,760 pretty much nobody in the engineering 490 00:20:14,850 --> 00:20:12,730 community noticing this the FBI 491 00:20:17,970 --> 00:20:14,860 pretending to investigate for two years 492 00:20:19,740 --> 00:20:17,980 the cost of billions of dollars and not 493 00:20:22,470 --> 00:20:19,750 finding anything you know that I think 494 00:20:23,940 --> 00:20:22,480 is a conspiracy theory yeah prom-prom my 495 00:20:26,340 --> 00:20:23,950 perspective but obviously from the 496 00:20:28,110 --> 00:20:26,350 perspective of people who are convinced 497 00:20:30,060 --> 00:20:28,120 that that theory is true like say 498 00:20:31,410 --> 00:20:30,070 richard gage who was the head of 499 00:20:34,110 --> 00:20:31,420 architects and engineers for 9/11 truth 500 00:20:37,860 --> 00:20:34,120 mmm he's gonna say that i'm calling it a 501 00:20:40,290 --> 00:20:37,870 conspiracy theory to belittle it so you 502 00:20:42,510 --> 00:20:40,300 know took to label it with the same 503 00:20:43,890 --> 00:20:42,520 thing as like the queen is an alien or 504 00:20:46,040 --> 00:20:43,900 the earth is flat and things like that 505 00:20:48,660 --> 00:20:46,050 so he's that's what he's gonna receive 506 00:20:49,950 --> 00:20:48,670 but as you know i've actually like spent 507 00:20:52,230 --> 00:20:49,960 a lot of time looking at the actual 508 00:20:54,210 --> 00:20:52,240 evidence behind this this theory and i 509 00:20:56,940 --> 00:20:54,220 feel like you know after looking at it 510 00:20:59,490 --> 00:20:56,950 for you know 10 years or so the my 511 00:21:02,460 --> 00:20:59,500 conclusion is that it is just a 512 00:21:04,890 --> 00:21:02,470 conspiracy theory means oh that's what 513 00:21:07,880 --> 00:21:04,900 i'm gonna keep calling it but in regards 514 00:21:12,030 --> 00:21:07,890 to the explosive theory if you were to 515 00:21:14,370 --> 00:21:12,040 remove any any association with the idea 516 00:21:18,120 --> 00:21:14,380 of governments high-level people being 517 00:21:20,700 --> 00:21:18,130 involved and that you just remove all of 518 00:21:23,330 --> 00:21:20,710 the foundations that it's currently 519 00:21:26,070 --> 00:21:23,340 standing on and just think of the 520 00:21:29,550 --> 00:21:26,080 explosive theory regardless of who was 521 00:21:30,120 --> 00:21:29,560 behind it or involved or what whatever 522 00:21:38,940 --> 00:21:30,130 it 523 00:21:40,560 --> 00:21:38,950 you've also talked about that yeah we 524 00:21:42,210 --> 00:21:40,570 don't understand everything about it but 525 00:21:46,760 --> 00:21:42,220 that doesn't mean that it's a conspiracy 526 00:21:50,210 --> 00:21:46,770 theory and i agree but the the room of 527 00:21:52,860 --> 00:21:50,220 abnormalities in the collapse and the 528 00:21:56,280 --> 00:21:52,870 visual aspect of the collapse which 529 00:21:58,760 --> 00:21:56,290 understandably can too many people be 530 00:22:02,850 --> 00:21:58,770 communicated as an explosive collapse 531 00:22:06,780 --> 00:22:02,860 how do you do you leave room for doubt 532 00:22:09,120 --> 00:22:06,790 that it may be all of the theories 533 00:22:11,340 --> 00:22:09,130 presented today in regards to explosives 534 00:22:14,400 --> 00:22:11,350 can be dismissed with an alternative 535 00:22:16,380 --> 00:22:14,410 theory but not may be debunked are you 536 00:22:19,220 --> 00:22:16,390 open or you have room for doubt that 537 00:22:21,780 --> 00:22:19,230 it's possible that it could have been 538 00:22:25,560 --> 00:22:21,790 sinister purposes behind it regardless 539 00:22:29,850 --> 00:22:25,570 of who was behind it other than 9 when I 540 00:22:32,160 --> 00:22:29,860 get ya to a to a degree to a degree but 541 00:22:34,710 --> 00:22:32,170 a small degree now I think you know you 542 00:22:36,360 --> 00:22:34,720 say like we don't really understand 543 00:22:38,190 --> 00:22:36,370 everything about the collapse and now I 544 00:22:39,270 --> 00:22:38,200 think that statement kind of should be 545 00:22:42,080 --> 00:22:39,280 looked into a little bit because I 546 00:22:45,510 --> 00:22:42,090 wouldn't say that there are aspects of 547 00:22:47,040 --> 00:22:45,520 the collapse that we don't understand in 548 00:22:49,320 --> 00:22:47,050 the sense of like you know why could 549 00:22:50,850 --> 00:22:49,330 this possibly have happened we can come 550 00:22:53,160 --> 00:22:50,860 up with reasonable hypotheses for 551 00:22:55,860 --> 00:22:53,170 everything did you know this it fell 552 00:22:58,680 --> 00:22:55,870 rapidly there was a explosive ejections 553 00:23:00,090 --> 00:22:58,690 of material things things like that 554 00:23:02,940 --> 00:23:00,100 they're the things that people bring up 555 00:23:04,530 --> 00:23:02,950 as being being issues I'd say we didn't 556 00:23:06,360 --> 00:23:04,540 understand that in the sense that we 557 00:23:08,490 --> 00:23:06,370 don't know exactly which beam hit which 558 00:23:10,980 --> 00:23:08,500 other beam and you know you know which 559 00:23:13,220 --> 00:23:10,990 order the columns collapsed in and you 560 00:23:16,830 --> 00:23:13,230 know how far down was the collapse wave 561 00:23:19,200 --> 00:23:16,840 inside the building but we can come up 562 00:23:21,420 --> 00:23:19,210 with a plausible hypothesis that 563 00:23:22,680 --> 00:23:21,430 explains it and the engineers like they 564 00:23:25,410 --> 00:23:22,690 have no problem you know the building 565 00:23:30,240 --> 00:23:25,420 just fell down into itself and fell to 566 00:23:32,700 --> 00:23:30,250 pieces possible hypothesis is it like 567 00:23:34,740 --> 00:23:32,710 plausible hypotheses that could also be 568 00:23:37,020 --> 00:23:34,750 a part of explosives could it not 569 00:23:39,660 --> 00:23:37,030 I mean plausible is that sinister people 570 00:23:41,550 --> 00:23:39,670 have been listening as a plausible isn't 571 00:23:43,170 --> 00:23:41,560 a binary thing though it's not like you 572 00:23:45,930 --> 00:23:43,180 know this this is plausible this is 573 00:23:48,240 --> 00:23:45,940 implausible and explosives like you know 574 00:23:52,560 --> 00:23:48,250 make it onto the plausible site it's 575 00:23:54,420 --> 00:23:52,570 like you could like if you if you defy 576 00:23:55,830 --> 00:23:54,430 the operatory criteria and you say 577 00:23:58,110 --> 00:23:55,840 something's plausible but you know you 578 00:23:59,850 --> 00:23:58,120 can ask how plausible is something if 579 00:24:01,200 --> 00:23:59,860 you can actually ask how how plausible 580 00:24:03,660 --> 00:24:01,210 is it that means you can kind of put a 581 00:24:06,630 --> 00:24:03,670 number on it and how likely do you think 582 00:24:08,280 --> 00:24:06,640 it actually is if he has a possibility 583 00:24:11,070 --> 00:24:08,290 of like you know a thousandth of a 584 00:24:13,410 --> 00:24:11,080 percent it's still plausible yeah but 585 00:24:16,290 --> 00:24:13,420 not very likely finds what is plausible 586 00:24:18,690 --> 00:24:16,300 who gets that nobody sitting through it 587 00:24:22,530 --> 00:24:18,700 nobody defines it it's not a there's not 588 00:24:25,410 --> 00:24:22,540 a thing that you can define yeah it's 589 00:24:28,180 --> 00:24:25,420 like whoever would define it as to how 590 00:24:30,100 --> 00:24:28,190 possible it would be they would have 591 00:24:32,260 --> 00:24:30,110 of the world and how its put together 592 00:24:34,330 --> 00:24:32,270 and what interests there are in the 593 00:24:35,950 --> 00:24:34,340 world and what kind of power and ability 594 00:24:37,780 --> 00:24:35,960 they would have to do something like 595 00:24:40,600 --> 00:24:37,790 that to get away with and how do you 596 00:24:45,550 --> 00:24:40,610 even like how do you even calculate that 597 00:24:48,220 --> 00:24:45,560 it's it's like yeah but it's so to me 598 00:24:51,130 --> 00:24:48,230 leave room for doubt that it's that it 599 00:24:53,530 --> 00:24:51,140 is possible and it is plausible in a way 600 00:24:58,030 --> 00:24:53,540 it is just as plausible as it falling 601 00:25:00,520 --> 00:24:58,040 down and by without explosives it I feel 602 00:25:02,880 --> 00:25:00,530 if I have to be completely I don't know 603 00:25:04,930 --> 00:25:02,890 if I can claim that that would be being 604 00:25:08,860 --> 00:25:04,940 intellectually honest with myself that 605 00:25:12,940 --> 00:25:08,870 it is possible but I don't find evidence 606 00:25:17,170 --> 00:25:12,950 yet to support that theory is that maybe 607 00:25:20,470 --> 00:25:17,180 a way there's a thing in in skepticism 608 00:25:23,440 --> 00:25:20,480 called false balance which we constantly 609 00:25:25,630 --> 00:25:23,450 rail against which is where you present 610 00:25:28,300 --> 00:25:25,640 both sides of the argument which seems 611 00:25:30,400 --> 00:25:28,310 like a fair way of doing things that you 612 00:25:31,870 --> 00:25:30,410 have an expert on to say something and 613 00:25:34,540 --> 00:25:31,880 then you have another expert on putting 614 00:25:36,340 --> 00:25:34,550 the other side of the argument but if 615 00:25:40,090 --> 00:25:36,350 you look at things like say you know 616 00:25:42,340 --> 00:25:40,100 chemtrails and you get on like one guy a 617 00:25:44,260 --> 00:25:42,350 scientist with a PhD who saves 618 00:25:46,530 --> 00:25:44,270 chemtrails are real and then you get on 619 00:25:48,730 --> 00:25:46,540 another guy with a PhD who says that 620 00:25:51,610 --> 00:25:48,740 chemtrails are not real they're just 621 00:25:53,530 --> 00:25:51,620 contrails it makes it seem like things 622 00:25:56,050 --> 00:25:53,540 are 5050 it makes it seem like the 623 00:25:58,000 --> 00:25:56,060 argument is is is you know kind of open 624 00:25:59,470 --> 00:25:58,010 for debate no one really knows like you 625 00:26:02,050 --> 00:25:59,480 know half the scientists say there's the 626 00:26:04,240 --> 00:26:02,060 other half say that but you really don't 627 00:26:06,550 --> 00:26:04,250 have that 50/50 split in these things 628 00:26:09,280 --> 00:26:06,560 with chemtrails I was involved in a 629 00:26:13,150 --> 00:26:09,290 survey of atmospheric scientists and we 630 00:26:14,740 --> 00:26:13,160 serve aids like 70 scientists and 76 of 631 00:26:16,420 --> 00:26:14,750 them were 100% no these are just 632 00:26:18,700 --> 00:26:16,430 contrails one guy was like oh I'm not 633 00:26:21,640 --> 00:26:18,710 entirely sure about this one test but 634 00:26:24,430 --> 00:26:21,650 basically you don't have this split you 635 00:26:25,720 --> 00:26:24,440 have 99 percent of scientists on one 636 00:26:29,470 --> 00:26:25,730 thing and you have one percent on the 637 00:26:31,930 --> 00:26:29,480 other thing and you can't have on a talk 638 00:26:33,850 --> 00:26:31,940 show host one scientist on one side and 639 00:26:35,230 --> 00:26:33,860 then 99 scientists on the other side 640 00:26:37,930 --> 00:26:35,240 because they wouldn't fit in the studio 641 00:26:40,420 --> 00:26:37,940 but that's really what the actual 642 00:26:42,040 --> 00:26:40,430 balance is I see me so when you talk 643 00:26:44,410 --> 00:26:42,050 about like something like 644 00:26:47,140 --> 00:26:44,420 eleven you got you got a similar problem 645 00:26:50,140 --> 00:26:47,150 there yeah I interviewed on this podcast 646 00:26:53,040 --> 00:26:50,150 a while ago a structural engineer from 647 00:26:55,930 --> 00:26:53,050 New York who worked on the 9/11 site and 648 00:26:57,730 --> 00:26:55,940 he said he knows lots of structural 649 00:26:59,680 --> 00:26:57,740 engineers in New York he's a senior guy 650 00:27:01,420 --> 00:26:59,690 it's like been working in New York for 651 00:27:03,310 --> 00:27:01,430 like 30 years in structural engineering 652 00:27:04,630 --> 00:27:03,320 he knows probably hundreds of structural 653 00:27:07,480 --> 00:27:04,640 engineers in New York he doesn't know 654 00:27:09,610 --> 00:27:07,490 anybody any structural engineer in New 655 00:27:11,470 --> 00:27:09,620 York who believes in the controlled 656 00:27:14,740 --> 00:27:11,480 demolition theory so you know you've got 657 00:27:16,960 --> 00:27:14,750 this this this false balance and you 658 00:27:18,700 --> 00:27:16,970 can't say that we have to be more 659 00:27:20,680 --> 00:27:18,710 even-handed in fact we probably have to 660 00:27:23,500 --> 00:27:20,690 be less even-handed we need to like say 661 00:27:26,050 --> 00:27:23,510 what the actual balance is so saying 662 00:27:27,880 --> 00:27:26,060 something is plausible doesn't mean it's 663 00:27:29,740 --> 00:27:27,890 like a 50-50 thing likes either this or 664 00:27:31,240 --> 00:27:29,750 this I don't know which one it is it's 665 00:27:34,750 --> 00:27:31,250 they're saying there's a small chance 666 00:27:36,220 --> 00:27:34,760 this is small possibility the explosives 667 00:27:39,250 --> 00:27:36,230 were pre planted in the building and 668 00:27:41,080 --> 00:27:39,260 were timed exactly to go off to make it 669 00:27:43,000 --> 00:27:41,090 look like to all the world's scientists 670 00:27:46,480 --> 00:27:43,010 that it was a normal gravity driven 671 00:27:48,460 --> 00:27:46,490 collapse and you know that that's that's 672 00:27:50,980 --> 00:27:48,470 what happened but there's no real 673 00:27:52,300 --> 00:27:50,990 evidence of it but it's plausible there 674 00:27:54,310 --> 00:27:52,310 really it's not it's not that plausible 675 00:27:56,880 --> 00:27:54,320 this there's tiny little possibility 676 00:27:59,020 --> 00:27:56,890 that that might have happened but it's 677 00:28:01,650 --> 00:27:59,030 money bottling the things that would 678 00:28:05,770 --> 00:28:01,660 have to go on for it to actually exist 679 00:28:10,360 --> 00:28:05,780 yeah I can see what you are pointing out 680 00:28:13,030 --> 00:28:10,370 in regards to the that it is and what 681 00:28:15,610 --> 00:28:13,040 I'm worried about is is who who is going 682 00:28:18,700 --> 00:28:15,620 to get to define what is the right 683 00:28:20,620 --> 00:28:18,710 balance and who are those people gonna 684 00:28:23,020 --> 00:28:20,630 be and what trust is going to be put 685 00:28:26,020 --> 00:28:23,030 into those people that what balance is 686 00:28:29,820 --> 00:28:26,030 given to us will be what is the real 687 00:28:32,950 --> 00:28:29,830 truth and historically science is 688 00:28:35,140 --> 00:28:32,960 luckily many it many times wrong and it 689 00:28:38,200 --> 00:28:35,150 needs to be corrected and developed and 690 00:28:40,570 --> 00:28:38,210 evolved and by now oh the only process 691 00:28:43,270 --> 00:28:40,580 we know how to do that is to have the 692 00:28:46,600 --> 00:28:43,280 debates and the comparisons of data and 693 00:28:49,630 --> 00:28:46,610 I mean to the viewer viewing the debate 694 00:28:52,930 --> 00:28:49,640 or the arguments or the the issues it 695 00:28:55,030 --> 00:28:52,940 seems like an uneven balance like like 696 00:28:55,990 --> 00:28:55,040 you explained that it is like this to 697 00:28:58,840 --> 00:28:56,000 scientists 698 00:29:01,360 --> 00:28:58,850 having having an argument but the idea 699 00:29:03,070 --> 00:29:01,370 that science isn't really done by debate 700 00:29:05,650 --> 00:29:03,080 though science is done by showing 701 00:29:07,540 --> 00:29:05,660 evidence and yeah when you get 702 00:29:09,250 --> 00:29:07,550 revolutions in science they don't come 703 00:29:10,900 --> 00:29:09,260 about by people sitting in a room and 704 00:29:13,270 --> 00:29:10,910 like one side debating the other like 705 00:29:15,220 --> 00:29:13,280 Copernicus didn't like just have a 706 00:29:16,900 --> 00:29:15,230 simple debate he actually bill these 707 00:29:18,490 --> 00:29:16,910 observations and he showed other people 708 00:29:20,110 --> 00:29:18,500 how to do the same observations and he 709 00:29:21,190 --> 00:29:20,120 showed them the math and they were able 710 00:29:23,350 --> 00:29:21,200 to look at it 711 00:29:26,620 --> 00:29:23,360 auu actual evidence like the guy who 712 00:29:28,660 --> 00:29:26,630 discovered the bacteria cause ulcers he 713 00:29:31,450 --> 00:29:28,670 did an experiment by actually drinking 714 00:29:32,500 --> 00:29:31,460 some some bacteria and seeing that it 715 00:29:33,760 --> 00:29:32,510 also has formed in his stomach 716 00:29:36,100 --> 00:29:33,770 afterwards so he had he did this 717 00:29:39,550 --> 00:29:36,110 physical demonstration I go around to 718 00:29:40,960 --> 00:29:39,560 those red chips yeah that's a piece of 719 00:29:44,410 --> 00:29:40,970 evidence like people debate about 720 00:29:46,540 --> 00:29:44,420 whether these things were explosives or 721 00:29:48,340 --> 00:29:46,550 not but this little plenty of dust 722 00:29:49,750 --> 00:29:48,350 around there still people have like 723 00:29:51,160 --> 00:29:49,760 items of clothing of things that are 724 00:29:53,080 --> 00:29:51,170 covered in dust they have samples of 725 00:29:54,760 --> 00:29:53,090 dust all over the place like even people 726 00:29:56,500 --> 00:29:54,770 in the 9/11 truth community say that 727 00:29:58,810 --> 00:29:56,510 they're they have samples and dust if 728 00:30:00,580 --> 00:29:58,820 you actually have samples of dust that 729 00:30:02,980 --> 00:30:00,590 demonstrates that there were explosives 730 00:30:05,350 --> 00:30:02,990 in the dust why don't you get it tested 731 00:30:07,300 --> 00:30:05,360 why don't you actually you get an 732 00:30:09,280 --> 00:30:07,310 independent lab to verify that this 733 00:30:11,110 --> 00:30:09,290 house as dusting test ten different 734 00:30:12,280 --> 00:30:11,120 samples from different locations and 735 00:30:15,040 --> 00:30:12,290 then you go you got a hundred percent 736 00:30:16,960 --> 00:30:15,050 proof this hasn't been done even though 737 00:30:18,460 --> 00:30:16,970 like people say though they said years 738 00:30:20,530 --> 00:30:18,470 ago they were going to do this testing 739 00:30:22,360 --> 00:30:20,540 yeah the only what happened is I did 740 00:30:24,550 --> 00:30:22,370 they didn't do the testing for some 741 00:30:26,380 --> 00:30:24,560 reason or they did the testing it didn't 742 00:30:28,030 --> 00:30:26,390 show what they wanted it to show and so 743 00:30:31,650 --> 00:30:28,040 they didn't do it but you don't do 744 00:30:34,750 --> 00:30:31,660 science by debate you do science by 745 00:30:36,940 --> 00:30:34,760 presenting evidence and having other 746 00:30:39,010 --> 00:30:36,950 people verify that you have very 747 00:30:41,500 --> 00:30:39,020 reliable tests and things that you can 748 00:30:43,300 --> 00:30:41,510 do you could have people build models of 749 00:30:45,070 --> 00:30:43,310 the World Trade Center for example which 750 00:30:46,720 --> 00:30:45,080 is something that's this being done so 751 00:30:48,520 --> 00:30:46,730 multiple people could do that and you 752 00:30:50,680 --> 00:30:48,530 could like have other people might look 753 00:30:53,050 --> 00:30:50,690 at those results and see yeah whether 754 00:30:55,900 --> 00:30:53,060 they are they are or they show one thing 755 00:30:59,070 --> 00:30:55,910 or the other but as we know data can 756 00:31:04,570 --> 00:30:59,080 also be misinterpreted and as through 757 00:31:06,940 --> 00:31:04,580 scientific former consensus is is 758 00:31:09,039 --> 00:31:06,950 that if you have a scientific consensus 759 00:31:10,509 --> 00:31:09,049 on something you have scientists saying 760 00:31:13,629 --> 00:31:10,519 that that's even dangerous because 761 00:31:16,060 --> 00:31:13,639 you're leaving out the room for having a 762 00:31:20,259 --> 00:31:16,070 discussion about the data you're leaving 763 00:31:22,239 --> 00:31:20,269 out the ability to to have a what I 764 00:31:24,190 --> 00:31:22,249 would call they'll call a debate about 765 00:31:25,899 --> 00:31:24,200 the data that we have and how to 766 00:31:28,479 --> 00:31:25,909 interpret the data and what it is 767 00:31:30,219 --> 00:31:28,489 showing us then anything stopping you 768 00:31:31,779 --> 00:31:30,229 from having the discussion you don't 769 00:31:34,570 --> 00:31:31,789 have to have it with other scientists 770 00:31:38,169 --> 00:31:34,580 but you can still present this science 771 00:31:40,119 --> 00:31:38,179 yeah yeah why do you think that say the 772 00:31:43,209 --> 00:31:40,129 papers that have been written about 911 773 00:31:44,709 --> 00:31:43,219 physics haven't been very well received 774 00:31:47,409 --> 00:31:44,719 you think it's they're being suppressed 775 00:31:49,269 --> 00:31:47,419 yep it there are scientists saying that 776 00:31:51,430 --> 00:31:49,279 the buildings collapsed too fast and 777 00:31:53,499 --> 00:31:51,440 things like that or you know just have 778 00:31:55,839 --> 00:31:53,509 explosives in it and they've actually 779 00:31:57,879 --> 00:31:55,849 written scientific papers so the co 780 00:32:00,579 --> 00:31:57,889 they're still participating in the 781 00:32:03,249 --> 00:32:00,589 process but yeah definitely I think that 782 00:32:06,789 --> 00:32:03,259 perhaps they misinterpret the lack of 783 00:32:10,299 --> 00:32:06,799 interest in their papers for some kind 784 00:32:12,129 --> 00:32:10,309 of suppression all those papers for and 785 00:32:14,379 --> 00:32:12,139 from my perspective it isn't really a 786 00:32:16,229 --> 00:32:14,389 suppression issue it's more of a a lack 787 00:32:18,459 --> 00:32:16,239 of interest because they think it's just 788 00:32:20,440 --> 00:32:18,469 but you know I see I see you at your 789 00:32:22,949 --> 00:32:20,450 pointers that you you you think that the 790 00:32:27,069 --> 00:32:22,959 it's not a level playing field yeah yeah 791 00:32:29,639 --> 00:32:27,079 yeah I think it never will be and but 792 00:32:32,049 --> 00:32:29,649 you know science if something is 793 00:32:34,089 --> 00:32:32,059 demonstrable if you can show that it is 794 00:32:36,609 --> 00:32:34,099 true in a way that's verifiable and 795 00:32:39,729 --> 00:32:36,619 repeatable test and verifiable and 796 00:32:41,859 --> 00:32:39,739 repeatable then you can't ignore that 797 00:32:43,419 --> 00:32:41,869 you know science can't say like oh 798 00:32:44,709 --> 00:32:43,429 that's not true even though it's you 799 00:32:46,060 --> 00:32:44,719 know you can repeat the experiment it 800 00:32:48,819 --> 00:32:46,070 shows the same thing over and over again 801 00:32:52,329 --> 00:32:48,829 or you know this math works out if 802 00:32:54,489 --> 00:32:52,339 something was actual real science a real 803 00:32:56,079 --> 00:32:54,499 a real engineering issue a real 804 00:32:58,719 --> 00:32:56,089 structural engineering calculation that 805 00:32:59,919 --> 00:32:58,729 people have done isn't something that 806 00:33:04,060 --> 00:32:59,929 could be ignored 807 00:33:06,009 --> 00:33:04,070 is this this pure absolute thing that 808 00:33:09,969 --> 00:33:06,019 you can just put out there and explain 809 00:33:12,009 --> 00:33:09,979 to people and any other scientist if you 810 00:33:13,180 --> 00:33:12,019 have a have it explained to them they 811 00:33:15,190 --> 00:33:13,190 will see you know this is these are 812 00:33:16,779 --> 00:33:15,200 facts you can't argue with these things 813 00:33:18,250 --> 00:33:16,789 here here's the moons of Jupiter 814 00:33:20,350 --> 00:33:18,260 rotating around you which 815 00:33:22,750 --> 00:33:20,360 you know Kanna proves that you know 816 00:33:24,789 --> 00:33:22,760 gravity works in a certain way because 817 00:33:26,409 --> 00:33:24,799 you know you can't like you with with 818 00:33:28,900 --> 00:33:26,419 these observations but what observations 819 00:33:35,100 --> 00:33:28,910 do you have from 9/11 that are equally 820 00:33:40,600 --> 00:33:38,020 to the same to the same degree that if 821 00:33:42,610 --> 00:33:40,610 you see if you're seeing new you track 822 00:33:44,500 --> 00:33:42,620 the orbits of the planets and you see 823 00:33:48,340 --> 00:33:44,510 the old form ellipses around the Sun 824 00:33:51,730 --> 00:33:48,350 that tell is exactly with Newton's laws 825 00:33:53,740 --> 00:33:51,740 of gravity mm-hmm and so that's gonna be 826 00:33:57,789 --> 00:33:53,750 in arguable observation the the world 827 00:33:59,650 --> 00:33:57,799 fits this model I don't I don't know you 828 00:34:02,890 --> 00:33:59,660 it's not evil it's an arguable that it 829 00:34:05,140 --> 00:34:02,900 fits yes yes that is inarguable yes I 830 00:34:07,539 --> 00:34:05,150 agree that isn't arguable but it's not 831 00:34:09,940 --> 00:34:07,549 an arguable that there can be an 832 00:34:11,290 --> 00:34:09,950 alternative interpretation of those 833 00:34:13,270 --> 00:34:11,300 physical phenomenons 834 00:34:15,310 --> 00:34:13,280 you know I mean this is this false 835 00:34:17,409 --> 00:34:15,320 balance that you talk about to me is I 836 00:34:21,129 --> 00:34:17,419 think it's correct that it does become a 837 00:34:25,060 --> 00:34:21,139 false balance but I think it still needs 838 00:34:27,220 --> 00:34:25,070 to be entrusted into the viewer that 839 00:34:30,970 --> 00:34:27,230 they have to be able to make up their 840 00:34:33,099 --> 00:34:30,980 own mind if we are to approach a world 841 00:34:36,180 --> 00:34:33,109 where someone will be given the 842 00:34:38,619 --> 00:34:36,190 authority to define what is to be 843 00:34:42,250 --> 00:34:38,629 debated or discussed and talked about 844 00:34:45,909 --> 00:34:42,260 because it's might not be scientifically 845 00:34:48,430 --> 00:34:45,919 even in the debate spectrum then I I'm 846 00:34:50,230 --> 00:34:48,440 afraid of those people because I I don't 847 00:34:53,560 --> 00:34:50,240 have a guarantee that those people in 848 00:34:55,599 --> 00:34:53,570 charge of regulating the spectrum of 849 00:34:58,900 --> 00:34:55,609 debate will always have genuine 850 00:35:00,640 --> 00:34:58,910 interests in or since their interests in 851 00:35:04,030 --> 00:35:00,650 regulating it in an objective and 852 00:35:07,530 --> 00:35:04,040 neutral way so right now as you're 853 00:35:09,490 --> 00:35:07,540 talking about YouTube and Facebook and 854 00:35:12,190 --> 00:35:09,500 Google exam Twitter 855 00:35:15,880 --> 00:35:12,200 answer ship yeah they're the people now 856 00:35:17,950 --> 00:35:15,890 who are essentially regulating I 857 00:35:19,720 --> 00:35:17,960 wouldn't say they're regulating debates 858 00:35:23,590 --> 00:35:19,730 cuz you can still have debate but they 859 00:35:26,770 --> 00:35:23,600 do things now like they will they will 860 00:35:28,330 --> 00:35:26,780 do rank videos on the water so if you 861 00:35:31,090 --> 00:35:28,340 search for Flat Earth videos now you 862 00:35:34,210 --> 00:35:31,100 hardly find any you know Flat Earth 863 00:35:36,910 --> 00:35:34,220 truth videos and similarly they're not 864 00:35:38,170 --> 00:35:36,920 to the same extent with 911 if you 865 00:35:39,870 --> 00:35:38,180 search for 911 866 00:35:44,770 --> 00:35:39,880 you used to get lots more videos 867 00:35:47,260 --> 00:35:44,780 discussing your the 911 theories and you 868 00:35:49,600 --> 00:35:47,270 don't hear that now and and I'm not 869 00:35:50,800 --> 00:35:49,610 entirely sure that's that's that's a 870 00:35:54,430 --> 00:35:50,810 good thing because I think it's kind of 871 00:35:57,160 --> 00:35:54,440 pushing things underground I do feel the 872 00:35:59,710 --> 00:35:57,170 way things stand right now it's it's 873 00:36:01,990 --> 00:35:59,720 okay because they are targeting things 874 00:36:04,000 --> 00:36:02,000 that are you know pretty much just 875 00:36:06,160 --> 00:36:04,010 continual misinformation being put out 876 00:36:09,190 --> 00:36:06,170 there but I think it's kind of in a 877 00:36:11,200 --> 00:36:09,200 waste of slippery slope yeah where do 878 00:36:13,390 --> 00:36:11,210 you draw the line where do you say this 879 00:36:15,820 --> 00:36:13,400 is a conspiracy theory that is 880 00:36:17,560 --> 00:36:15,830 demonstrably false or you know this is 881 00:36:19,780 --> 00:36:17,570 just people who are suspicious of people 882 00:36:22,990 --> 00:36:19,790 in power so we shouldn't let them have 883 00:36:25,630 --> 00:36:23,000 that discussion so yeah yeah I I would 884 00:36:27,160 --> 00:36:25,640 agree and I I you know I've been 885 00:36:28,780 --> 00:36:27,170 following the whole thing I talked a 886 00:36:31,210 --> 00:36:28,790 little bit about it in the book like you 887 00:36:33,850 --> 00:36:31,220 know with the censorship for the social 888 00:36:35,820 --> 00:36:33,860 media companies yeah that a lot of them 889 00:36:37,630 --> 00:36:35,830 are doing it now for advertising 890 00:36:41,470 --> 00:36:37,640 advertisers don't like being associated 891 00:36:42,970 --> 00:36:41,480 with fringe topics yeah and yeah they 892 00:36:45,250 --> 00:36:42,980 did say it wasn't interesting like the 893 00:36:46,990 --> 00:36:45,260 amount of Fringe material that they have 894 00:36:48,760 --> 00:36:47,000 on YouTube I think they they said it 895 00:36:51,760 --> 00:36:48,770 accounted for something like three 896 00:36:53,200 --> 00:36:51,770 percent or something of Vol views or 897 00:36:55,090 --> 00:36:53,210 maybe like even less than that one 898 00:36:56,530 --> 00:36:55,100 percent it was like a very very small 899 00:36:59,050 --> 00:36:56,540 amount so it didn't actually change 900 00:37:01,210 --> 00:36:59,060 things that much rather than Isis but 901 00:37:03,610 --> 00:37:01,220 they don't actually they still don't 902 00:37:04,780 --> 00:37:03,620 want their our adverts showing up on 903 00:37:08,980 --> 00:37:04,790 these videos as opposed they could just 904 00:37:11,920 --> 00:37:08,990 take the adverts off person it's a 905 00:37:15,100 --> 00:37:11,930 tricky one yeah definitely is and it's 906 00:37:17,950 --> 00:37:15,110 far it's hard to know what principles to 907 00:37:20,380 --> 00:37:17,960 follow to regulate the transfer of 908 00:37:22,000 --> 00:37:20,390 information correctly and whoever gets 909 00:37:24,970 --> 00:37:22,010 to define that what is the correct 910 00:37:28,000 --> 00:37:24,980 information to transfer across the world 911 00:37:29,770 --> 00:37:28,010 is authoritarian in a way to me I mean 912 00:37:33,870 --> 00:37:29,780 when you get private corporations 913 00:37:36,760 --> 00:37:33,880 regulating information in that way i i i 914 00:37:42,490 --> 00:37:36,770 I don't I don't look brightly at the 915 00:37:44,880 --> 00:37:42,500 future then I die it's and then you know 916 00:37:47,970 --> 00:37:44,890 part of where they're coming from 917 00:37:49,620 --> 00:37:47,980 the YouTube people there's youtubers 918 00:37:51,960 --> 00:37:49,630 being used as a recruitment tool for 919 00:37:54,090 --> 00:37:51,970 jihadists and that they were put up 920 00:37:56,460 --> 00:37:54,100 these these videos and I see what they 921 00:37:58,920 --> 00:37:56,470 used to he not do it anymore 922 00:38:02,790 --> 00:37:58,930 and they would put up sometimes private 923 00:38:05,160 --> 00:38:02,800 videos and they would be shown to 924 00:38:08,460 --> 00:38:05,170 impressionable young men who would later 925 00:38:12,000 --> 00:38:08,470 turn into jihadists sometimes suicide 926 00:38:13,350 --> 00:38:12,010 bombers they you know the the stuff that 927 00:38:15,450 --> 00:38:13,360 they were with in these videos was 928 00:38:16,800 --> 00:38:15,460 essentially conspiracy theories in a way 929 00:38:18,600 --> 00:38:16,810 like you know they would they would they 930 00:38:20,130 --> 00:38:18,610 would repeat things like the 9/11 truth 931 00:38:21,900 --> 00:38:20,140 conspiracy theory like say look what 932 00:38:24,030 --> 00:38:21,910 America will do to its own people like 933 00:38:26,220 --> 00:38:24,040 they are evil and instead we're 934 00:38:29,130 --> 00:38:26,230 justified in in kicking him out of Saudi 935 00:38:32,070 --> 00:38:29,140 Arabia or whatever and they do I think 936 00:38:34,620 --> 00:38:32,080 where the the YouTube stuff kind of 937 00:38:37,230 --> 00:38:34,630 started the clamping down thing was with 938 00:38:39,690 --> 00:38:37,240 these kind of extremist violence stuff 939 00:38:41,160 --> 00:38:39,700 and then they've they've seen like like 940 00:38:44,250 --> 00:38:41,170 you're some kind of correlation between 941 00:38:47,340 --> 00:38:44,260 conspiracy theories in general and this 942 00:38:49,830 --> 00:38:47,350 type of of extremist behavior I you see 943 00:38:51,990 --> 00:38:49,840 it like in America conspiracy theories 944 00:38:54,900 --> 00:38:52,000 have this strong rooting and it's the 945 00:38:57,270 --> 00:38:54,910 extreme right which tends to be people 946 00:38:59,040 --> 00:38:57,280 like malicious yeah things like they 947 00:39:00,510 --> 00:38:59,050 talk about the Waco Siege and I feel 948 00:39:02,760 --> 00:39:00,520 familiar with that that was like a yeah 949 00:39:04,980 --> 00:39:02,770 very famous thing in American history 950 00:39:06,690 --> 00:39:04,990 where there was a siege of a religious 951 00:39:08,820 --> 00:39:06,700 compound where they were had lots of 952 00:39:12,000 --> 00:39:08,830 guns in it and then they burnt down and 953 00:39:14,700 --> 00:39:12,010 lost people died and that's that's 954 00:39:17,099 --> 00:39:14,710 become part of the fabric of right-wing 955 00:39:18,750 --> 00:39:17,109 conspiracy theorists and the militia and 956 00:39:21,680 --> 00:39:18,760 everything and then you can in domestic 957 00:39:24,720 --> 00:39:21,690 terrorism because you got this this 958 00:39:26,880 --> 00:39:24,730 mythology built up around how we're 959 00:39:29,700 --> 00:39:26,890 fighting the evil government and that we 960 00:39:32,040 --> 00:39:29,710 need to start doing things like bombing 961 00:39:33,810 --> 00:39:32,050 the Oklahoma City Federal Building which 962 00:39:36,420 --> 00:39:33,820 is something that happened by guys who 963 00:39:38,580 --> 00:39:36,430 believed in conspiracy theories yeah 964 00:39:41,160 --> 00:39:38,590 back then yuichi wasn't such a big thing 965 00:39:43,620 --> 00:39:41,170 but now like if you get people who buy 966 00:39:45,120 --> 00:39:43,630 into these these conspiracy theories 967 00:39:47,550 --> 00:39:45,130 they might think that they need to take 968 00:39:49,440 --> 00:39:47,560 action on it and you might get like more 969 00:39:50,580 --> 00:39:49,450 domestic terrorism based on this so I 970 00:39:52,800 --> 00:39:50,590 think that's part of what they are 971 00:39:55,349 --> 00:39:52,810 thinking about they're trying to prevent 972 00:39:57,420 --> 00:39:55,359 prevent extremist violence but of course 973 00:39:58,360 --> 00:39:57,430 that doesn't help like you know me and 974 00:40:01,330 --> 00:39:58,370 you know just 975 00:40:03,100 --> 00:40:01,340 we want to talk about the actual topics 976 00:40:05,700 --> 00:40:03,110 from a scientific point of view yeah 977 00:40:08,830 --> 00:40:05,710 yeah and the the the for example the 978 00:40:10,930 --> 00:40:08,840 example of right-wing extremism in the 979 00:40:12,940 --> 00:40:10,940 United States like right after you wake 980 00:40:15,760 --> 00:40:12,950 oh you had the Ruby bridge instant 981 00:40:19,200 --> 00:40:15,770 incident where people got shot as well 982 00:40:21,640 --> 00:40:19,210 by the police and there was a standoff I 983 00:40:23,650 --> 00:40:21,650 it's it's when it comes to right-wing 984 00:40:26,050 --> 00:40:23,660 extremists for example when they talk 985 00:40:29,140 --> 00:40:26,060 about Waco incident and how that whole 986 00:40:30,940 --> 00:40:29,150 process when and how the police behaved 987 00:40:33,550 --> 00:40:30,950 and has been made movies and 988 00:40:35,410 --> 00:40:33,560 documentaries and leaks of information 989 00:40:37,750 --> 00:40:35,420 and all kinds of stuff and it's there 990 00:40:40,810 --> 00:40:37,760 are points where the right-wing 991 00:40:44,470 --> 00:40:40,820 extremist takes something that is true 992 00:40:47,770 --> 00:40:44,480 that that is true in regards to certain 993 00:40:50,650 --> 00:40:47,780 areas of what happened in Waco but then 994 00:40:54,250 --> 00:40:50,660 they use that to fuel a political and 995 00:40:57,820 --> 00:40:54,260 emotional and ideological state of mind 996 00:41:01,960 --> 00:40:57,830 to to justify radical changes that they 997 00:41:04,210 --> 00:41:01,970 want to you know push on the world and I 998 00:41:06,790 --> 00:41:04,220 find that the only way to approach these 999 00:41:08,800 --> 00:41:06,800 people is to like you talked about find 1000 00:41:10,270 --> 00:41:08,810 common ground tell them that yeah you 1001 00:41:12,040 --> 00:41:10,280 were right about this stuff yeah you're 1002 00:41:14,770 --> 00:41:12,050 right about this and this happened and 1003 00:41:16,810 --> 00:41:14,780 but not not this and maybe you're doing 1004 00:41:19,510 --> 00:41:16,820 this too but just to are over 1005 00:41:23,830 --> 00:41:19,520 interpreting this so I find that that is 1006 00:41:25,750 --> 00:41:23,840 the only way to kind of make people drop 1007 00:41:28,000 --> 00:41:25,760 their guns in a way because I feel that 1008 00:41:31,450 --> 00:41:28,010 the extreme right when they bring up 1009 00:41:33,880 --> 00:41:31,460 these topics you find that some parts of 1010 00:41:36,160 --> 00:41:33,890 the media in the unit in the US are sort 1011 00:41:39,100 --> 00:41:36,170 of on their side on and have reported 1012 00:41:41,860 --> 00:41:39,110 what happened at Waco and and and and 1013 00:41:44,050 --> 00:41:41,870 what critiques you could give to the FBI 1014 00:41:46,330 --> 00:41:44,060 and the hostage negotiation and the way 1015 00:41:48,640 --> 00:41:46,340 they were behaving while approaching the 1016 00:41:49,960 --> 00:41:48,650 compound and all that stuff but and then 1017 00:41:52,030 --> 00:41:49,970 you have other media channels saying 1018 00:41:54,400 --> 00:41:52,040 that the people who are arguing the Waco 1019 00:41:55,960 --> 00:41:54,410 incident at all Looney Tunes and that 1020 00:41:57,880 --> 00:41:55,970 they're conspiratorial right-wing 1021 00:41:59,890 --> 00:41:57,890 extremists and that's the only term they 1022 00:42:01,720 --> 00:41:59,900 get and I think that's dangerous because 1023 00:42:03,910 --> 00:42:01,730 it's not having a conversation with the 1024 00:42:06,550 --> 00:42:03,920 people so they become just more extreme 1025 00:42:08,710 --> 00:42:06,560 and then if you remove all of their ways 1026 00:42:10,810 --> 00:42:08,720 of communicating with each other and the 1027 00:42:12,100 --> 00:42:10,820 idea is that they are communicating like 1028 00:42:14,860 --> 00:42:12,110 you say you push them on the ground 1029 00:42:17,770 --> 00:42:14,870 you're censoring them you are you are 1030 00:42:20,800 --> 00:42:17,780 making it harder for the public and for 1031 00:42:23,530 --> 00:42:20,810 everyone else to see what is the status 1032 00:42:25,990 --> 00:42:23,540 quo of the world what is what are the 1033 00:42:29,020 --> 00:42:26,000 opinions out there what what do we need 1034 00:42:31,420 --> 00:42:29,030 to worry about and and III think that's 1035 00:42:33,940 --> 00:42:31,430 I think that's even more dangerous to 1036 00:42:36,130 --> 00:42:33,950 not know what they worry about the most 1037 00:42:40,600 --> 00:42:36,140 in the world because certain topics have 1038 00:42:43,540 --> 00:42:40,610 been removed from the public view and I 1039 00:42:46,450 --> 00:42:43,550 think repression as for Robert Kennedy 1040 00:42:50,710 --> 00:42:46,460 said repression breeds retaliation it 1041 00:42:53,080 --> 00:42:50,720 just increases friction it doesn't calm 1042 00:42:55,180 --> 00:42:53,090 people down and they get an argument to 1043 00:42:58,090 --> 00:42:55,190 say that look they censored us like Alex 1044 00:43:01,600 --> 00:42:58,100 Jones says now we've he makes it into a 1045 00:43:02,260 --> 00:43:01,610 point and an argument in his case and 1046 00:43:05,680 --> 00:43:02,270 he's right 1047 00:43:07,540 --> 00:43:05,690 he has been censored he has been yes but 1048 00:43:09,790 --> 00:43:07,550 I think you gotta ask the we stay with 1049 00:43:12,640 --> 00:43:09,800 Alex Jones say someone who's obviously 1050 00:43:14,200 --> 00:43:12,650 like you know kind of a deep conspiracy 1051 00:43:16,930 --> 00:43:14,210 theorist but who someone who does use 1052 00:43:19,810 --> 00:43:16,940 like you know valid criticism to frame 1053 00:43:21,550 --> 00:43:19,820 his is crazier a serious like like yes 1054 00:43:25,870 --> 00:43:21,560 Sandy Hook being being fake and stuff 1055 00:43:28,450 --> 00:43:25,880 I think if Alex Jones is deep platformed 1056 00:43:30,700 --> 00:43:28,460 what is the net effect of that is it a 1057 00:43:32,110 --> 00:43:30,710 good effect or is it a bad effect you 1058 00:43:34,390 --> 00:43:32,120 know you're is gonna have some some 1059 00:43:35,950 --> 00:43:34,400 negative effects from that and people 1060 00:43:37,900 --> 00:43:35,960 will think oh that this proves the 1061 00:43:40,480 --> 00:43:37,910 government is evil and they've you know 1062 00:43:41,770 --> 00:43:40,490 they push Alex Jones off therefore like 1063 00:43:44,680 --> 00:43:41,780 I'm gonna follow him wherever he goes 1064 00:43:46,930 --> 00:43:44,690 and onto the dark web and then you've 1065 00:43:49,210 --> 00:43:46,940 got thousands or millions of people who 1066 00:43:51,070 --> 00:43:49,220 don't see Alex Jones anymore and don't 1067 00:43:53,700 --> 00:43:51,080 he'll is drip drip drip for Alex Jones 1068 00:43:58,060 --> 00:43:53,710 like dropping poison into their minds 1069 00:44:00,700 --> 00:43:58,070 yeah so I'm not entirely sure within 1070 00:44:02,290 --> 00:44:00,710 that particular case like whether it's a 1071 00:44:04,270 --> 00:44:02,300 good thing or a bad thing I kind of I 1072 00:44:05,920 --> 00:44:04,280 kind of tend to think that it's a good 1073 00:44:08,440 --> 00:44:05,930 thing that he doesn't have a platform 1074 00:44:09,250 --> 00:44:08,450 even though there are these obvious 1075 00:44:11,680 --> 00:44:09,260 negatives 1076 00:44:13,470 --> 00:44:11,690 I think that's there's a worry that's 1077 00:44:15,810 --> 00:44:13,480 you know what comes after Alex Jones 1078 00:44:19,950 --> 00:44:15,820 Alex Jones like is a fairly clear-cut 1079 00:44:23,050 --> 00:44:19,960 case yeah I who was harassing parents of 1080 00:44:25,270 --> 00:44:23,060 the Sandy Hook victim saying it was it 1081 00:44:25,960 --> 00:44:25,280 was fake and all kinds of you know if 1082 00:44:27,310 --> 00:44:25,970 you look into the people 1083 00:44:30,040 --> 00:44:27,320 used to work with them as all kinds of 1084 00:44:33,130 --> 00:44:30,050 bad stuff which is on those four as well 1085 00:44:38,440 --> 00:44:33,140 no guys now that it's been he has been 1086 00:44:40,030 --> 00:44:38,450 taken to court and now from what I've 1087 00:44:41,890 --> 00:44:40,040 seen though he has been he's been under 1088 00:44:45,670 --> 00:44:41,900 Joe Rogan experience a couple of times 1089 00:44:49,420 --> 00:44:45,680 after after that happened he has it been 1090 00:44:52,810 --> 00:44:49,430 an admission of guilt in a way and I 1091 00:44:54,670 --> 00:44:52,820 feel that if if you when you ban people 1092 00:44:56,530 --> 00:44:54,680 permanently you don't give them an 1093 00:44:58,660 --> 00:44:56,540 opportunity to correct themselves and 1094 00:45:01,000 --> 00:44:58,670 come back and say you know I was wrong 1095 00:45:03,190 --> 00:45:01,010 about this and actually tell people that 1096 00:45:05,740 --> 00:45:03,200 I was wrong about saying you you're 1097 00:45:06,960 --> 00:45:05,750 being denied the opportunity for what 1098 00:45:10,450 --> 00:45:06,970 would you call it 1099 00:45:11,980 --> 00:45:10,460 Redemption emption yeah yeah I like to 1100 00:45:14,260 --> 00:45:11,990 give people a second chance myself when 1101 00:45:16,150 --> 00:45:14,270 I I banned people from my site Medibank 1102 00:45:17,620 --> 00:45:16,160 here when they overstepped the line 1103 00:45:18,730 --> 00:45:17,630 which is usually when they there are 1104 00:45:20,140 --> 00:45:18,740 they're not following the posting 1105 00:45:21,940 --> 00:45:20,150 guidelines they just post lots of stuff 1106 00:45:24,130 --> 00:45:21,950 or they're especially rude like they 1107 00:45:26,920 --> 00:45:24,140 start insulting year yeah there's people 1108 00:45:29,080 --> 00:45:26,930 that I banned and then I do a temporary 1109 00:45:32,710 --> 00:45:29,090 ban and then let them back and then I'll 1110 00:45:33,880 --> 00:45:32,720 do like a one-year ban and then I'll let 1111 00:45:36,099 --> 00:45:33,890 them back oh then I'll just do an 1112 00:45:39,099 --> 00:45:36,109 indefinite ban and I'll let them back 1113 00:45:39,520 --> 00:45:39,109 this there's one guy who was a 9/11 1114 00:45:41,349 --> 00:45:39,530 truther 1115 00:45:42,730 --> 00:45:41,359 he might have heard it I won't mention 1116 00:45:45,790 --> 00:45:42,740 him now because he tends to get very 1117 00:45:48,040 --> 00:45:45,800 upset whenever I mention his name but 1118 00:45:50,710 --> 00:45:48,050 you know I banned him I think like five 1119 00:45:52,750 --> 00:45:50,720 years ago that and then he came back the 1120 00:45:54,339 --> 00:45:52,760 next year and he was more contrite and 1121 00:45:55,599 --> 00:45:54,349 then there was that like a listless chat 1122 00:45:57,250 --> 00:45:55,609 and you know we had some reasonable 1123 00:45:59,079 --> 00:45:57,260 conversations and then he stayed going 1124 00:46:02,140 --> 00:45:59,089 off again and then he started like 1125 00:46:03,849 --> 00:46:02,150 sending me these there's these 1126 00:46:06,520 --> 00:46:03,859 aggressive PM's 1127 00:46:08,920 --> 00:46:06,530 and so I plant them again and then yeah 1128 00:46:10,210 --> 00:46:08,930 a year later he came back and like he 1129 00:46:12,880 --> 00:46:10,220 seemed fine you know so I let him on 1130 00:46:14,500 --> 00:46:12,890 again and as guilty of that and now I 1131 00:46:15,940 --> 00:46:14,510 kind of chat to him on on Twitter 1132 00:46:18,870 --> 00:46:15,950 occasionally and you know he's still 1133 00:46:21,940 --> 00:46:18,880 banned but it's not like I flows off all 1134 00:46:25,920 --> 00:46:21,950 all I mean used so what you say you 1135 00:46:29,710 --> 00:46:25,930 would like that you get banned ya know 1136 00:46:32,500 --> 00:46:29,720 that after your one of you Joe Rogan 1137 00:46:33,870 --> 00:46:32,510 experiences and I was I was so mad at 1138 00:46:38,380 --> 00:46:33,880 you for the way you were communicating 1139 00:46:39,289 --> 00:46:38,390 the again totalitarian alternative of 1140 00:46:42,679 --> 00:46:39,299 had 1141 00:46:44,479 --> 00:46:42,689 you know the bong 911 and and I was I 1142 00:46:47,089 --> 00:46:44,489 remember that I was I was really really 1143 00:46:50,839 --> 00:46:47,099 frustrated as to the way it was being 1144 00:46:55,269 --> 00:46:50,849 communicated and and even perhaps you 1145 00:46:58,370 --> 00:46:55,279 would maybe today convey or communicated 1146 00:47:00,069 --> 00:46:58,380 differently in a way I don't know it I 1147 00:47:03,439 --> 00:47:00,079 think it's evolved 1148 00:47:06,559 --> 00:47:03,449 my approach has evolved so how I talk to 1149 00:47:09,019 --> 00:47:06,569 people and I think you know I'd I've 1150 00:47:10,789 --> 00:47:09,029 since that time I've started this 1151 00:47:12,259 --> 00:47:10,799 podcast which has been going on about 1152 00:47:15,469 --> 00:47:12,269 and in now seven or eight months or so I 1153 00:47:17,739 --> 00:47:15,479 got this is episode 34 that we recording 1154 00:47:20,239 --> 00:47:17,749 right now and it's what is January 1155 00:47:21,769 --> 00:47:20,249 January the 5th right now and I think I 1156 00:47:26,179 --> 00:47:21,779 started it back in June or something 1157 00:47:28,039 --> 00:47:26,189 like that and things have evolved I I 1158 00:47:29,929 --> 00:47:28,049 talk to people a bit differently and you 1159 00:47:32,929 --> 00:47:29,939 know it listened a bit more than I used 1160 00:47:34,999 --> 00:47:32,939 to to people and you know try to let 1161 00:47:37,759 --> 00:47:35,009 them have their say and understand them 1162 00:47:39,739 --> 00:47:37,769 more you know I still did that back then 1163 00:47:41,809 --> 00:47:39,749 but I think I I do it more now and 1164 00:47:44,479 --> 00:47:41,819 certainly a lot more now than I did say 1165 00:47:46,309 --> 00:47:44,489 five years ago and definitely more than 1166 00:47:49,269 --> 00:47:46,319 when I started out doing debunking like 1167 00:47:52,309 --> 00:47:49,279 10 years ago when I was you know almost 1168 00:47:53,870 --> 00:47:52,319 dismissive of these crazy theories and 1169 00:47:56,509 --> 00:47:53,880 saying oh it's obviously this and things 1170 00:47:59,629 --> 00:47:56,519 like that so yeah I think I've evolved 1171 00:48:02,209 --> 00:47:59,639 simply because one approach works better 1172 00:48:05,120 --> 00:48:02,219 than the other approach and yeah yeah 1173 00:48:07,999 --> 00:48:05,130 yeah it's just it's really good not to 1174 00:48:09,679 --> 00:48:08,009 be static and I wonder how things are 1175 00:48:14,209 --> 00:48:09,689 gonna change in the future and I am I 1176 00:48:16,339 --> 00:48:14,219 going to continue to evolve even more 1177 00:48:19,370 --> 00:48:16,349 reasonable and nicer and just let other 1178 00:48:21,709 --> 00:48:19,380 people talk all the time or back and 1179 00:48:24,259 --> 00:48:21,719 start being a more aggressive 1180 00:48:28,849 --> 00:48:24,269 will say it is spooky to think of the 1181 00:48:30,199 --> 00:48:28,859 future it really is yeah yeah and you 1182 00:48:33,079 --> 00:48:30,209 think it'd be in terms of things like 1183 00:48:37,729 --> 00:48:33,089 say 9/11 truth and how long it has been 1184 00:48:39,439 --> 00:48:37,739 since 9/11 nineteen years yeah we were 1185 00:48:44,719 --> 00:48:39,449 having similar discussions about the 1186 00:48:46,669 --> 00:48:44,729 evidence 18 years ago yeah how how are 1187 00:48:48,620 --> 00:48:46,679 things actually evolved have they 1188 00:48:51,919 --> 00:48:48,630 actually evolved why is it taking 19 1189 00:48:52,610 --> 00:48:51,929 years to get to where we are now and 1190 00:48:55,730 --> 00:48:52,620 we're really know 1191 00:48:57,200 --> 00:48:55,740 anywhere in particular in terms of 9/11 1192 00:49:00,740 --> 00:48:57,210 truth and where are we going to get over 1193 00:49:03,290 --> 00:49:00,750 the next ten years you think that's like 1194 00:49:06,410 --> 00:49:03,300 the state of 9/11 truth right now and 1195 00:49:09,830 --> 00:49:06,420 where it's where it's heading I find 1196 00:49:15,740 --> 00:49:09,840 that it's a movement that is kind of 1197 00:49:18,950 --> 00:49:15,750 slowly very slowly dying off a little 1198 00:49:22,070 --> 00:49:18,960 bit but the architects and engineers for 1199 00:49:24,230 --> 00:49:22,080 9/11 truth is definitely a really 1200 00:49:27,550 --> 00:49:24,240 powerful movement because they have 1201 00:49:31,100 --> 00:49:27,560 credentials they have people who are 1202 00:49:32,690 --> 00:49:31,110 almost dedicated their lives to 1203 00:49:35,480 --> 00:49:32,700 something that they really do believe 1204 00:49:39,860 --> 00:49:35,490 and that movement I think will persist 1205 00:49:44,030 --> 00:49:39,870 for many many years to come and I I have 1206 00:49:46,580 --> 00:49:44,040 to say that I I think they some of the 1207 00:49:48,050 --> 00:49:46,590 people in 9/11 true or not 9/11 truth 1208 00:49:49,550 --> 00:49:48,060 but the architects and engineers who are 1209 00:49:51,560 --> 00:49:49,560 in that group some of them you can have 1210 00:49:54,710 --> 00:49:51,570 very reasonable debates and you know 1211 00:49:57,920 --> 00:49:54,720 conversations and lively discussions 1212 00:50:01,910 --> 00:49:57,930 with and I I find that to be important 1213 00:50:06,110 --> 00:50:01,920 and I think it's um I think it's if I do 1214 00:50:10,640 --> 00:50:06,120 it from a societal function as having 1215 00:50:13,460 --> 00:50:10,650 that group or a e-911 that opposite poll 1216 00:50:16,660 --> 00:50:13,470 that group of people who is able to 1217 00:50:20,360 --> 00:50:16,670 question the narrative of a or a 1218 00:50:23,630 --> 00:50:20,370 consensus of a incidence of such as 9/11 1219 00:50:25,880 --> 00:50:23,640 and you put questions up and some of the 1220 00:50:28,010 --> 00:50:25,890 questions can be more legitimate 1221 00:50:31,850 --> 00:50:28,020 questions than others and I think that's 1222 00:50:35,050 --> 00:50:31,860 important to have that sort of growth 1223 00:50:37,820 --> 00:50:35,060 but the problems arise where you have 1224 00:50:39,800 --> 00:50:37,830 their own way of being behaving 1225 00:50:43,130 --> 00:50:39,810 totalitarian in their opinions and their 1226 00:50:45,860 --> 00:50:43,140 ways of interpreting evidence where like 1227 00:50:50,270 --> 00:50:45,870 other people do look at it as facts and 1228 00:50:53,390 --> 00:50:50,280 as proven and they rail and they they 1229 00:50:55,640 --> 00:50:53,400 get together and they it creates an 1230 00:50:57,500 --> 00:50:55,650 image of the world where yeah you don't 1231 00:51:00,260 --> 00:50:57,510 get much faith in the world if you want 1232 00:51:03,080 --> 00:51:00,270 to get into you know really start 1233 00:51:04,310 --> 00:51:03,090 believing what they are saying but I 1234 00:51:05,720 --> 00:51:04,320 think they have an important function 1235 00:51:06,530 --> 00:51:05,730 that's what I'm trying to get to it's 1236 00:51:10,070 --> 00:51:06,540 it's an important 1237 00:51:12,710 --> 00:51:10,080 function2 to have the ability in the 1238 00:51:16,100 --> 00:51:12,720 society to to talk about these issues 1239 00:51:18,380 --> 00:51:16,110 and to even have those opinions of 9/11 1240 00:51:20,900 --> 00:51:18,390 I think it's really important because if 1241 00:51:25,670 --> 00:51:20,910 I need to be able to make up my mind I 1242 00:51:28,610 --> 00:51:25,680 need to have different kinds of views of 1243 00:51:32,510 --> 00:51:28,620 the data out that well would you say 1244 00:51:36,260 --> 00:51:32,520 that the chemtrails people are equally 1245 00:51:37,820 --> 00:51:36,270 important they do engineering watch.org 1246 00:51:39,590 --> 00:51:37,830 this big site that talks about 1247 00:51:41,710 --> 00:51:39,600 chemtrails and lots of people will point 1248 00:51:44,480 --> 00:51:41,720 you to as being this authoritarian site 1249 00:51:47,360 --> 00:51:44,490 giving the the other side of the story 1250 00:51:48,950 --> 00:51:47,370 on chemtrails is that as important as 1251 00:51:53,210 --> 00:51:48,960 the architects and engineers for 9/11 1252 00:51:57,320 --> 00:51:53,220 truth I haven't dug too much into the 1253 00:52:00,820 --> 00:51:57,330 chemtrail debate but for example where 1254 00:52:03,500 --> 00:52:00,830 they where I do think they have a 1255 00:52:04,520 --> 00:52:03,510 perhaps hypothetically now I'm not 1256 00:52:05,870 --> 00:52:04,530 saying that they do have but 1257 00:52:09,320 --> 00:52:05,880 hypothetically where they could have a 1258 00:52:11,990 --> 00:52:09,330 good function for example they could use 1259 00:52:15,340 --> 00:52:12,000 arguments like that the army sprayed 1260 00:52:18,250 --> 00:52:15,350 Saint Louis with toxic aerosol during 1261 00:52:23,150 --> 00:52:18,260 1950 s which is documented and proven 1262 00:52:25,490 --> 00:52:23,160 but if if if that's something that the 1263 00:52:27,380 --> 00:52:25,500 government could do in one incident and 1264 00:52:29,600 --> 00:52:27,390 that's all that happened and it hasn't 1265 00:52:31,460 --> 00:52:29,610 repeated since it was an experiment for 1266 00:52:35,570 --> 00:52:31,470 completely different purposes than 1267 00:52:39,170 --> 00:52:35,580 chemtrails in that in that sense then I 1268 00:52:41,060 --> 00:52:39,180 think it's good to have that group who 1269 00:52:43,310 --> 00:52:41,070 can bring up that issue and remember it 1270 00:52:45,830 --> 00:52:43,320 and and talk about it and communicate it 1271 00:52:48,080 --> 00:52:45,840 regardless of how radical their 1272 00:52:50,110 --> 00:52:48,090 viewpoints otherwise are because I want 1273 00:52:52,670 --> 00:52:50,120 to look at this group and I want to hear 1274 00:52:54,740 --> 00:52:52,680 what is this group saying what are they 1275 00:52:58,430 --> 00:52:54,750 right about what are they wrong about 1276 00:53:03,230 --> 00:52:58,440 and then again the common ground but if 1277 00:53:05,180 --> 00:53:03,240 you if if I think it's more damaging for 1278 00:53:07,270 --> 00:53:05,190 them to exist and talk the way they do 1279 00:53:11,089 --> 00:53:07,280 or if it's 1280 00:53:13,160 --> 00:53:11,099 it's really hard to answer that and yeah 1281 00:53:15,020 --> 00:53:13,170 I can't say yes or no I mean you you 1282 00:53:18,039 --> 00:53:15,030 it's not like saying they're damaging or 1283 00:53:21,410 --> 00:53:18,049 or constructive I mean it could be like 1284 00:53:24,109 --> 00:53:21,420 neutral or constructive like if is there 1285 00:53:26,599 --> 00:53:24,119 an actual reason for them existing you 1286 00:53:28,640 --> 00:53:26,609 gave this example of the toxic spraying 1287 00:53:30,530 --> 00:53:28,650 over st. Louis but you know that 1288 00:53:32,270 --> 00:53:30,540 actually what this sprayed wasn't 1289 00:53:34,370 --> 00:53:32,280 actually toxic it was just kind of these 1290 00:53:36,470 --> 00:53:34,380 tracer things that they were using to 1291 00:53:37,910 --> 00:53:36,480 see how far things spread and they they 1292 00:53:39,410 --> 00:53:37,920 didn't think at the time that it was 1293 00:53:42,230 --> 00:53:39,420 toxic and then you know they later 1294 00:53:44,150 --> 00:53:42,240 discovered it was toxic in in the same 1295 00:53:46,760 --> 00:53:44,160 to the same degree as secondhand smoke 1296 00:53:48,260 --> 00:53:46,770 is toxic it's got this you know today's 1297 00:53:49,940 --> 00:53:48,270 standard they wouldn't they wouldn't 1298 00:53:51,910 --> 00:53:49,950 allow it to it to be sprayed in the air 1299 00:53:55,460 --> 00:53:51,920 because it's got this is very very minor 1300 00:53:58,030 --> 00:53:55,470 effect but you know so that that's a bit 1301 00:54:00,799 --> 00:53:58,040 of misinformation in itself that the 1302 00:54:04,130 --> 00:54:00,809 misinformation well if they're saying 1303 00:54:06,859 --> 00:54:04,140 that the US government sprayed the US 1304 00:54:09,260 --> 00:54:06,869 population with biological weapons which 1305 00:54:11,030 --> 00:54:09,270 is what they say then yeah yeah that's 1306 00:54:12,500 --> 00:54:11,040 misinformation it's because that's not 1307 00:54:14,930 --> 00:54:12,510 what actually happened they sprayed them 1308 00:54:16,460 --> 00:54:14,940 with what they call analogues of toxic 1309 00:54:18,920 --> 00:54:16,470 weapons which is something there's an 1310 00:54:21,770 --> 00:54:18,930 analogous to the toxic weapon like they 1311 00:54:23,990 --> 00:54:21,780 use a a harmless bacteria or the years 1312 00:54:26,990 --> 00:54:24,000 this zinc cadmium sulfate which is this 1313 00:54:28,880 --> 00:54:27,000 very slightly fluorescent chemical that 1314 00:54:31,010 --> 00:54:28,890 you spray which you know like I say is 1315 00:54:32,630 --> 00:54:31,020 it's very very slightly carcinogenic 1316 00:54:34,970 --> 00:54:32,640 like secondhand smoke is cussing a Jake 1317 00:54:36,680 --> 00:54:34,980 or in your number of pollutants are 1318 00:54:39,230 --> 00:54:36,690 carcinogenic and they probably wouldn't 1319 00:54:40,670 --> 00:54:39,240 use that now but when it's rated at the 1320 00:54:42,410 --> 00:54:40,680 time they thought that it was just this 1321 00:54:44,030 --> 00:54:42,420 harmless little fluorescent dye that 1322 00:54:47,480 --> 00:54:44,040 they could spray and see how far things 1323 00:54:50,960 --> 00:54:47,490 spread but I guess misrepresented as 1324 00:54:52,940 --> 00:54:50,970 being mrs. Madison a spray biological 1325 00:54:54,109 --> 00:54:52,950 weapons on as before therefore that 1326 00:54:56,660 --> 00:54:54,119 you're probably doing it now and these 1327 00:54:58,700 --> 00:54:56,670 lines that we see in the sky may well be 1328 00:55:01,970 --> 00:54:58,710 them spraying those biological weapons 1329 00:55:03,950 --> 00:55:01,980 like they did back then so yes sure I 1330 00:55:05,720 --> 00:55:03,960 it's great to present information like 1331 00:55:07,370 --> 00:55:05,730 that but you know that that's it's in 1332 00:55:09,049 --> 00:55:07,380 the Wikipedia article and there's lots 1333 00:55:11,210 --> 00:55:09,059 of other there's lots of histories of 1334 00:55:12,680 --> 00:55:11,220 that type of thing now yeah it's not 1335 00:55:16,130 --> 00:55:12,690 like you need the chem trail people to 1336 00:55:18,200 --> 00:55:16,140 tell you about about these things no no 1337 00:55:19,910 --> 00:55:18,210 it's it's not but it's it's still those 1338 00:55:21,050 --> 00:55:19,920 people that you get to hear it from I've 1339 00:55:23,240 --> 00:55:21,060 never actually heard of that 1340 00:55:25,250 --> 00:55:23,250 incident until I actually go into one of 1341 00:55:27,770 --> 00:55:25,260 these groups and then see what they but 1342 00:55:29,720 --> 00:55:27,780 I agree they do they do misrepresent the 1343 00:55:31,790 --> 00:55:29,730 information especially with the title 1344 00:55:33,500 --> 00:55:31,800 that you gave to for example the 1345 00:55:35,030 --> 00:55:33,510 incident as they had sprayed the 1346 00:55:37,490 --> 00:55:35,040 population of blah blah blah because it 1347 00:55:40,790 --> 00:55:37,500 it constructs an image of an intent to 1348 00:55:43,010 --> 00:55:40,800 actually really go in and do damage to 1349 00:55:48,200 --> 00:55:43,020 the US population well that wasn't the 1350 00:55:51,980 --> 00:55:48,210 intent the incident in its the way was 1351 00:55:54,590 --> 00:55:51,990 you know it it still happened but how do 1352 00:55:56,990 --> 00:55:54,600 you present the incident in the correct 1353 00:55:59,810 --> 00:55:57,000 way and of course they do misrepresented 1354 00:56:01,580 --> 00:55:59,820 to to justify their cause but it that's 1355 00:56:05,000 --> 00:56:01,590 where again if you talk to these people 1356 00:56:07,460 --> 00:56:05,010 I would just say yeah that incident was 1357 00:56:09,680 --> 00:56:07,470 real I I agree it it's true and just 1358 00:56:12,290 --> 00:56:09,690 saying I agree that what that that 1359 00:56:15,770 --> 00:56:12,300 happened what's the way you are 1360 00:56:18,290 --> 00:56:15,780 presenting it is as if and then have you 1361 00:56:21,440 --> 00:56:18,300 know the common ground of your case and 1362 00:56:24,320 --> 00:56:21,450 your point here is correct but and then 1363 00:56:28,850 --> 00:56:24,330 and instead of just calling them names 1364 00:56:30,740 --> 00:56:28,860 you know like yes no I agree with with 1365 00:56:32,950 --> 00:56:30,750 with with that largely I think like 1366 00:56:35,270 --> 00:56:32,960 people who are conspiracy theorists 1367 00:56:37,190 --> 00:56:35,280 often bring up good points they talk 1368 00:56:39,230 --> 00:56:37,200 about u.s. foreign policy and the 1369 00:56:41,810 --> 00:56:39,240 history of CIA involvement in other 1370 00:56:44,470 --> 00:56:41,820 governments and covert actions that the 1371 00:56:47,690 --> 00:56:44,480 CIA has done within the United States 1372 00:56:51,140 --> 00:56:47,700 dirty dealings like the the CIA's 1373 00:56:54,320 --> 00:56:51,150 invitation of the the media in the 70s 1374 00:56:56,480 --> 00:56:54,330 and yeah 70s Lee overtly ended it in the 1375 00:56:58,310 --> 00:56:56,490 center in the 70s things like that you 1376 00:57:00,800 --> 00:56:58,320 know I I might not have heard of had I 1377 00:57:03,500 --> 00:57:00,810 not been interested in debunking 1378 00:57:05,570 --> 00:57:03,510 conspiracy theories so you know you get 1379 00:57:08,120 --> 00:57:05,580 good information by talking to people 1380 00:57:09,350 --> 00:57:08,130 who are far away from you things that 1381 00:57:11,840 --> 00:57:09,360 you might yeah good even if you don't go 1382 00:57:14,420 --> 00:57:11,850 all the way over there you still you 1383 00:57:17,690 --> 00:57:14,430 still find stuff to this interest from 1384 00:57:20,150 --> 00:57:17,700 those people and yeah and by talking to 1385 00:57:21,590 --> 00:57:20,160 them you can help them clarify their 1386 00:57:23,570 --> 00:57:21,600 understanding of things as well like if 1387 00:57:26,210 --> 00:57:23,580 they're saying things like you know the 1388 00:57:28,580 --> 00:57:26,220 CIA admits that it has control of all 1389 00:57:30,260 --> 00:57:28,590 the newspapers I spin say things like 1390 00:57:32,420 --> 00:57:30,270 that I mean then you say oh well 1391 00:57:35,000 --> 00:57:32,430 actually that's that was something that 1392 00:57:36,590 --> 00:57:35,010 some guy said in 1973 1393 00:57:38,480 --> 00:57:36,600 he was saying it about what happened in 1394 00:57:41,270 --> 00:57:38,490 the fifties and sixties you can give so 1395 00:57:43,010 --> 00:57:41,280 many context to that and yeah maybe they 1396 00:57:44,240 --> 00:57:43,020 do have control now but you know they 1397 00:57:45,950 --> 00:57:44,250 they haven't admitted it in the way that 1398 00:57:48,140 --> 00:57:45,960 you you've just said so you can actually 1399 00:57:50,630 --> 00:57:48,150 you know by having a conversation with 1400 00:57:53,000 --> 00:57:50,640 people it helps both of you you learn 1401 00:57:55,640 --> 00:57:53,010 stuff and they learn stuff and hopefully 1402 00:57:57,140 --> 00:57:55,650 we all move a bit closer together closer 1403 00:58:01,430 --> 00:57:57,150 to a better understanding of the world 1404 00:58:03,710 --> 00:58:01,440 that control the media I agree with you 1405 00:58:05,690 --> 00:58:03,720 but role of the media I mean in in 1406 00:58:08,480 --> 00:58:05,700 government's interest and historically 1407 00:58:12,260 --> 00:58:08,490 the control of media is essential to 1408 00:58:14,750 --> 00:58:12,270 make the population stay in line for the 1409 00:58:17,510 --> 00:58:14,760 society to function the way the elite 1410 00:58:19,990 --> 00:58:17,520 wants the society to go around basically 1411 00:58:23,510 --> 00:58:20,000 I mean just in the Soviet Union 1412 00:58:26,330 --> 00:58:23,520 incidents in the United States and how 1413 00:58:29,840 --> 00:58:26,340 propaganda is used to communicate the 1414 00:58:32,570 --> 00:58:29,850 reasons for war and you know just like a 1415 00:58:36,110 --> 00:58:32,580 few days ago I found out that the United 1416 00:58:40,270 --> 00:58:36,120 States had tried to yet the the UN 1417 00:58:43,910 --> 00:58:40,280 Council the push for war in Iraq in 2000 1418 00:58:46,120 --> 00:58:43,920 2002 and there was a woman working in 1419 00:58:49,310 --> 00:58:46,130 the intelligence community in the UK 1420 00:58:53,210 --> 00:58:49,320 that leaked this document that proved 1421 00:58:56,020 --> 00:58:53,220 that the US was willing and able and 1422 00:58:59,180 --> 00:58:56,030 intentionally trying to disrupt the UN 1423 00:59:02,090 --> 00:58:59,190 conversations to push for basically war 1424 00:59:06,050 --> 00:59:02,100 and and I'm like why isn't this more 1425 00:59:09,320 --> 00:59:06,060 prominent today in the debate of how how 1426 00:59:12,620 --> 00:59:09,330 politics in war and everything revolves 1427 00:59:15,590 --> 00:59:12,630 in in the world why isn't this put in 1428 00:59:18,530 --> 00:59:15,600 the history books why isn't this this 1429 00:59:20,450 --> 00:59:18,540 information available easily for for 1430 00:59:23,240 --> 00:59:20,460 people you know put it in people's faces 1431 00:59:25,820 --> 00:59:23,250 they need to understand that that there 1432 00:59:28,280 --> 00:59:25,830 is a behavior from governments and from 1433 00:59:30,820 --> 00:59:28,290 corporate interests and from military 1434 00:59:35,420 --> 00:59:30,830 people to just get what they want to get 1435 00:59:38,480 --> 00:59:35,430 ego and through ego you you you get 1436 00:59:41,780 --> 00:59:38,490 manifestations of cooperation of a 1437 00:59:44,480 --> 00:59:41,790 common goal which then in turn creates a 1438 00:59:46,610 --> 00:59:44,490 conspiracy and that's where the term 1439 00:59:48,610 --> 00:59:46,620 conspiracy becomes such a loaded term 1440 00:59:51,130 --> 00:59:48,620 because public in 1441 00:59:53,890 --> 00:59:51,140 interpretation of the word that I just 1442 00:59:57,220 --> 00:59:53,900 become worried in regards to the state 1443 01:00:00,310 --> 00:59:57,230 of the media now and how little they do 1444 01:00:03,340 --> 01:00:00,320 touch upon these critical issues and 1445 01:00:05,950 --> 01:00:03,350 instead present you trivial issues such 1446 01:00:08,590 --> 01:00:05,960 as there was a bad weather storm there 1447 01:00:10,690 --> 01:00:08,600 was a there was a drowning incident 1448 01:00:14,260 --> 01:00:10,700 there was a fire there was a it's just 1449 01:00:16,750 --> 01:00:14,270 everyday it doesn't get you anyway it 1450 01:00:19,090 --> 01:00:16,760 doesn't develop you as an individual 1451 01:00:20,350 --> 01:00:19,100 yeah well I kind of agree with that I 1452 01:00:22,900 --> 01:00:20,360 think the media isn't doing a very good 1453 01:00:26,020 --> 01:00:22,910 job of informing the public about what's 1454 01:00:27,550 --> 01:00:26,030 really going on I think yeah when you're 1455 01:00:29,460 --> 01:00:27,560 talking about that it reminds me of the 1456 01:00:33,250 --> 01:00:29,470 the term the military-industrial complex 1457 01:00:35,470 --> 01:00:33,260 he was a term coined by Eisenhower when 1458 01:00:36,670 --> 01:00:35,480 he left office he said be aware of the 1459 01:00:39,580 --> 01:00:36,680 formation of a military-industrial 1460 01:00:43,270 --> 01:00:39,590 complex which is like you know this this 1461 01:00:45,760 --> 01:00:43,280 close symbiotic relationship between the 1462 01:00:48,280 --> 01:00:45,770 military and the industry that supplies 1463 01:00:51,250 --> 01:00:48,290 the military and the government via 1464 01:00:52,810 --> 01:00:51,260 lobbying and the revolving door and this 1465 01:00:55,180 --> 01:00:52,820 is something that's obviously you know 1466 01:00:56,830 --> 01:00:55,190 come to pass and it's something that's 1467 01:00:59,320 --> 01:00:56,840 been around for a long time it is this 1468 01:01:03,780 --> 01:00:59,330 is thing that's kind of underlies a lot 1469 01:01:06,070 --> 01:01:03,790 of American near the American political 1470 01:01:08,020 --> 01:01:06,080 decisions that are made are made because 1471 01:01:09,670 --> 01:01:08,030 of the military industrial complex cause 1472 01:01:12,670 --> 01:01:09,680 us you know where the money is there in 1473 01:01:15,160 --> 01:01:12,680 that and oil is you know what's what 1474 01:01:19,150 --> 01:01:15,170 America is kind of basing all of their 1475 01:01:20,380 --> 01:01:19,160 foreign policy decisions upon so it's a 1476 01:01:23,440 --> 01:01:20,390 real thing and I think that it's 1477 01:01:25,240 --> 01:01:23,450 something that the the media like in a 1478 01:01:28,930 --> 01:01:25,250 way is just kind of like that we talked 1479 01:01:30,760 --> 01:01:28,940 about that in the 70s and here we kind 1480 01:01:32,110 --> 01:01:30,770 of know it more or less exists and now 1481 01:01:33,490 --> 01:01:32,120 we're talking about something else this 1482 01:01:35,230 --> 01:01:33,500 it's like it's just you aren't 1483 01:01:37,120 --> 01:01:35,240 interested anymore yeah you're giving 1484 01:01:41,530 --> 01:01:37,130 the public what they want not that what 1485 01:01:45,040 --> 01:01:41,540 they need for example if you focused 10% 1486 01:01:47,680 --> 01:01:45,050 or 20% of your energy and time into for 1487 01:01:49,060 --> 01:01:47,690 example digging into that problem that 1488 01:01:52,120 --> 01:01:49,070 you're just talking about in regards to 1489 01:01:55,120 --> 01:01:52,130 media behavior the relationship between 1490 01:01:57,790 --> 01:01:55,130 media military güstrow complex private 1491 01:02:01,220 --> 01:01:57,800 corporation lobbying funding of 1492 01:02:05,890 --> 01:02:01,230 presidential campaigns if you spent 1493 01:02:09,770 --> 01:02:05,900 some energy on that and presented a new 1494 01:02:12,200 --> 01:02:09,780 view of how this relationship functions 1495 01:02:13,910 --> 01:02:12,210 in presumably the United States or in 1496 01:02:16,910 --> 01:02:13,920 the world and how it affects the world 1497 01:02:19,490 --> 01:02:16,920 then I think you would have a common 1498 01:02:22,160 --> 01:02:19,500 ground that you could communicate to 1499 01:02:24,740 --> 01:02:22,170 basically any conspiratorial minded 1500 01:02:29,150 --> 01:02:24,750 person that would find a relationship 1501 01:02:31,750 --> 01:02:29,160 with you and kind of entrusting you with 1502 01:02:34,849 --> 01:02:31,760 that okay this guy really does have a 1503 01:02:37,460 --> 01:02:34,859 analysis of the world that I can relate 1504 01:02:40,640 --> 01:02:37,470 and and a level of communicating on 1505 01:02:44,260 --> 01:02:40,650 because what you've been doing until 1506 01:02:48,020 --> 01:02:44,270 this book I feel is basically just 1507 01:02:51,320 --> 01:02:48,030 disproving most theories that people can 1508 01:02:54,790 --> 01:02:51,330 come up with and without the carrot 1509 01:02:58,340 --> 01:02:54,800 without the alternative view point of 1510 01:02:59,720 --> 01:02:58,350 redirection if you if you only critique 1511 01:03:02,330 --> 01:02:59,730 and debunk them 1512 01:03:04,820 --> 01:03:02,340 you're not leaving them with a what 1513 01:03:06,920 --> 01:03:04,830 would I say a guide to a new path or a 1514 01:03:09,950 --> 01:03:06,930 guide to a new perspective 1515 01:03:12,740 --> 01:03:09,960 you are basically perhaps I'm just 1516 01:03:15,770 --> 01:03:12,750 speculating here absolving them of their 1517 01:03:17,690 --> 01:03:15,780 belief system in a way and for many 1518 01:03:19,700 --> 01:03:17,700 people that can be positive but for some 1519 01:03:21,650 --> 01:03:19,710 people that that's not positive they 1520 01:03:24,590 --> 01:03:21,660 don't have anything to stand on and they 1521 01:03:27,680 --> 01:03:24,600 they go into defensive mode and they 1522 01:03:30,349 --> 01:03:27,690 want to protect that view of the world 1523 01:03:32,660 --> 01:03:30,359 because it's it is their sensation of 1524 01:03:35,570 --> 01:03:32,670 existing in the world in a way and that 1525 01:03:37,430 --> 01:03:35,580 is like a religious defensive mechanism 1526 01:03:39,380 --> 01:03:37,440 in a way almost so what what do you 1527 01:03:40,910 --> 01:03:39,390 think would happen if you spent time 1528 01:03:43,340 --> 01:03:40,920 yeah you know I've always kind of said 1529 01:03:45,800 --> 01:03:43,350 that before there's lots of other people 1530 01:03:47,270 --> 01:03:45,810 looking into these other issues like the 1531 01:03:48,770 --> 01:03:47,280 military industrial complex and 1532 01:03:51,500 --> 01:03:48,780 corruption and things like that or even 1533 01:03:53,480 --> 01:03:51,510 like the more mainstream conspiracy 1534 01:03:54,560 --> 01:03:53,490 theories like vaccines being harmful and 1535 01:03:56,120 --> 01:03:54,570 covered up by the pharmaceutical 1536 01:03:57,440 --> 01:03:56,130 industry life theories like that yeah I 1537 01:03:58,550 --> 01:03:57,450 don't look into those because they're 1538 01:04:01,609 --> 01:03:58,560 mainstream and there's lots of other 1539 01:04:03,770 --> 01:04:01,619 people talking about them but I have 1540 01:04:06,260 --> 01:04:03,780 found that because I haven't looked into 1541 01:04:07,820 --> 01:04:06,270 them it does in a way close off some 1542 01:04:10,160 --> 01:04:07,830 doors to me because people come and they 1543 01:04:12,230 --> 01:04:10,170 want to talk to me about those things 1544 01:04:13,730 --> 01:04:12,240 and yeah I'm not really that familiar 1545 01:04:14,630 --> 01:04:13,740 with and I'm not really familiar with 1546 01:04:16,640 --> 01:04:14,640 the whole 1547 01:04:19,640 --> 01:04:16,650 same thing or even even climate change 1548 01:04:21,800 --> 01:04:19,650 or you know things like that and even 1549 01:04:23,060 --> 01:04:21,810 even things like you know the foreign 1550 01:04:25,010 --> 01:04:23,070 policy and the military-industrial 1551 01:04:27,740 --> 01:04:25,020 complex I'm not that familiar with them 1552 01:04:30,400 --> 01:04:27,750 so I think yeah I think you may be right 1553 01:04:32,840 --> 01:04:30,410 maybe I should spend a bit more time 1554 01:04:34,310 --> 01:04:32,850 maybe maybe writing about them or maybe 1555 01:04:37,550 --> 01:04:34,320 like talking about them or talking to 1556 01:04:39,680 --> 01:04:37,560 people about about these issues so that 1557 01:04:43,190 --> 01:04:39,690 there's a bit more of a shared common 1558 01:04:45,050 --> 01:04:43,200 ground that we can we can get through to 1559 01:04:46,970 --> 01:04:45,060 people on and it's not just simply I'm 1560 01:04:49,220 --> 01:04:46,980 just picking away at the low-hanging 1561 01:04:51,200 --> 01:04:49,230 fruit of their extreme conspiracy 1562 01:04:53,360 --> 01:04:51,210 theorists that there isn't hoping though 1563 01:04:55,790 --> 01:04:53,370 they'll move down you can have a more of 1564 01:04:59,630 --> 01:04:55,800 a basis for for that movement in the 1565 01:05:01,160 --> 01:04:59,640 other direction yeah I imagine being one 1566 01:05:03,260 --> 01:05:01,170 of those people approaching you and 1567 01:05:05,300 --> 01:05:03,270 trying to have a conversation with you 1568 01:05:07,700 --> 01:05:05,310 for example on the issues that are real 1569 01:05:10,760 --> 01:05:07,710 conspiracy conspiracies if you want to 1570 01:05:13,160 --> 01:05:10,770 call it that or and and III think I 1571 01:05:16,430 --> 01:05:13,170 would have the sensation of not being 1572 01:05:18,380 --> 01:05:16,440 able to establish a common ground with 1573 01:05:21,680 --> 01:05:18,390 you if you were not familiar with the 1574 01:05:24,290 --> 01:05:21,690 real what would you call your conspiracy 1575 01:05:26,570 --> 01:05:24,300 theories in the world and if if there's 1576 01:05:29,750 --> 01:05:26,580 not a common ground to be reached on 1577 01:05:32,180 --> 01:05:29,760 uncertain or just the most fundamental 1578 01:05:35,140 --> 01:05:32,190 issues in the world then you are in a 1579 01:05:38,450 --> 01:05:35,150 way maybe alienating them from from 1580 01:05:40,460 --> 01:05:38,460 perhaps even bothering to look further 1581 01:05:43,520 --> 01:05:40,470 into what you're saying as well because 1582 01:05:45,500 --> 01:05:43,530 all they see then is that you dismissing 1583 01:05:48,560 --> 01:05:45,510 a bunch of theories and stuff and they 1584 01:05:50,090 --> 01:05:48,570 it doesn't guy it it can guide them 1585 01:05:52,460 --> 01:05:50,100 somewhere depending on what kind of 1586 01:05:54,080 --> 01:05:52,470 person you are but for some people I can 1587 01:05:56,420 --> 01:05:54,090 imagine it doesn't but it's fascinating 1588 01:05:59,000 --> 01:05:56,430 to me that you've that you've had this 1589 01:06:01,520 --> 01:05:59,010 personal development into this that is 1590 01:06:04,220 --> 01:06:01,530 it is taking you somewhere and I think 1591 01:06:06,850 --> 01:06:04,230 that's really cool it's really beautiful 1592 01:06:09,710 --> 01:06:06,860 and it is like you said I would imagine 1593 01:06:13,250 --> 01:06:09,720 it's not just closing doors but it's 1594 01:06:16,010 --> 01:06:13,260 it's it's also opening doors for you to 1595 01:06:17,330 --> 01:06:16,020 look at things that you like you said 1596 01:06:19,400 --> 01:06:17,340 that you hadn't heard of before you 1597 01:06:21,200 --> 01:06:19,410 hadn't heard of these maybe aerosol 1598 01:06:23,420 --> 01:06:21,210 incident in st. Louis hadn't had been 1599 01:06:27,290 --> 01:06:23,430 for these radicals that communicated in 1600 01:06:28,549 --> 01:06:27,300 an in an extreme way and I think I think 1601 01:06:30,829 --> 01:06:28,559 that's really good I think that's 1602 01:06:33,529 --> 01:06:30,839 healthy and and for a person like you 1603 01:06:35,179 --> 01:06:33,539 you can approach I mean if you went to 1604 01:06:37,689 --> 01:06:35,189 YouTube and Alex Jones was on there 1605 01:06:40,969 --> 01:06:37,699 screaming about some you know a 1606 01:06:44,120 --> 01:06:40,979 multi-dimensional alien reptiles then 1607 01:06:47,150 --> 01:06:44,130 you would you wouldn't trust yourself to 1608 01:06:50,079 --> 01:06:47,160 have the ability to listen to him and to 1609 01:06:52,939 --> 01:06:50,089 basically just take from it what you 1610 01:06:56,299 --> 01:06:52,949 wanted to take because you have that 1611 01:06:59,089 --> 01:06:56,309 mental ability and you could find points 1612 01:07:01,189 --> 01:06:59,099 where maybe he's got a point and where 1613 01:07:04,299 --> 01:07:01,199 he is you know are giving his extreme 1614 01:07:07,489 --> 01:07:04,309 viewpoints from something that is true 1615 01:07:09,439 --> 01:07:07,499 and I think that's that's that's the 1616 01:07:11,420 --> 01:07:09,449 trust that I would want to give everyone 1617 01:07:14,420 --> 01:07:11,430 in the public the same ability that you 1618 01:07:16,339 --> 01:07:14,430 have to to go in there and analyze the 1619 01:07:19,699 --> 01:07:16,349 data that you have being presented but 1620 01:07:21,439 --> 01:07:19,709 it's not it's not it's in it's almost 1621 01:07:23,089 --> 01:07:21,449 naive of me to say that I would trust 1622 01:07:27,069 --> 01:07:23,099 that because of course you have people 1623 01:07:30,289 --> 01:07:27,079 who you know so it's it's really 1624 01:07:33,199 --> 01:07:30,299 difficult for me to to say where I would 1625 01:07:35,179 --> 01:07:33,209 draw the line I think we can't do 1626 01:07:37,489 --> 01:07:35,189 anything else but trust human 1627 01:07:40,759 --> 01:07:37,499 development yeah you kind of hear what 1628 01:07:42,589 --> 01:07:40,769 you're saying it's it's I think 1629 01:07:44,689 --> 01:07:42,599 establishing common ground is is a 1630 01:07:46,579 --> 01:07:44,699 fundamental thing for any conversation 1631 01:07:48,769 --> 01:07:46,589 if you're gonna have a true conversation 1632 01:07:51,679 --> 01:07:48,779 that you could have build rapport it's 1633 01:07:53,299 --> 01:07:51,689 like the first first step I just read a 1634 01:07:58,239 --> 01:07:53,309 book called how to have impossible 1635 01:08:00,890 --> 01:07:58,249 conversations by Peter Bogosian and he 1636 01:08:03,370 --> 01:08:00,900 he gives this this list of things Nate 1637 01:08:05,689 --> 01:08:03,380 and the first step is build rapport 1638 01:08:08,660 --> 01:08:05,699 which is just talk about something that 1639 01:08:10,370 --> 01:08:08,670 you have in common it doesn't have to be 1640 01:08:11,989 --> 01:08:10,380 simply like talking about football or 1641 01:08:13,579 --> 01:08:11,999 talking about the weather it can be it 1642 01:08:15,949 --> 01:08:13,589 can be talking about a topic that is 1643 01:08:17,839 --> 01:08:15,959 closer to the topic you actually want to 1644 01:08:19,669 --> 01:08:17,849 talk about where you you have some 1645 01:08:21,079 --> 01:08:19,679 common ground you know and of course I 1646 01:08:23,870 --> 01:08:21,089 talked about in the book find common 1647 01:08:26,149 --> 01:08:23,880 ground but it's there is usually common 1648 01:08:28,879 --> 01:08:26,159 ground that's close to the conspiracy 1649 01:08:30,349 --> 01:08:28,889 theory so you need there's a range of 1650 01:08:32,450 --> 01:08:30,359 areas where you can get this common 1651 01:08:35,629 --> 01:08:32,460 ground but yeah finding something you 1652 01:08:36,740 --> 01:08:35,639 both agree on that's related to the 1653 01:08:39,979 --> 01:08:36,750 types of things you're talking about 1654 01:08:40,519 --> 01:08:39,989 like say a government corruption of some 1655 01:08:41,809 --> 01:08:40,529 sort 1656 01:08:42,400 --> 01:08:41,819 you both agree that in this government 1657 01:08:44,200 --> 01:08:42,410 corrupt 1658 01:08:46,990 --> 01:08:44,210 and I think that's that's a vital part 1659 01:08:48,130 --> 01:08:47,000 of new establishing rapport if you're 1660 01:08:50,560 --> 01:08:48,140 going to be talking about different 1661 01:08:52,570 --> 01:08:50,570 types of government corruption you start 1662 01:08:54,160 --> 01:08:52,580 out by saying yeah this is some this is 1663 01:08:55,720 --> 01:08:54,170 an area where I think there is genuine 1664 01:08:57,670 --> 01:08:55,730 corruption and this is an area where 1665 01:08:59,560 --> 01:08:57,680 it's being proven that that's Grimpen 1666 01:09:01,210 --> 01:08:59,570 and here it's obvious that there is 1667 01:09:05,350 --> 01:09:01,220 corruption and you know you can agree on 1668 01:09:07,050 --> 01:09:05,360 that so yeah like establishing rapport 1669 01:09:11,050 --> 01:09:07,060 and establishing kind of like a 1670 01:09:13,900 --> 01:09:11,060 foundation for a conversation is better 1671 01:09:15,370 --> 01:09:13,910 than simply throwing out debunks saying 1672 01:09:17,650 --> 01:09:15,380 like you know this thing that you 1673 01:09:19,660 --> 01:09:17,660 claimed to be true is in fact false and 1674 01:09:22,120 --> 01:09:19,670 here is why because of this so we can 1675 01:09:25,480 --> 01:09:22,130 get rid of that so if you start building 1676 01:09:28,360 --> 01:09:25,490 things up it works better than just 1677 01:09:30,070 --> 01:09:28,370 shooting things down yeah yeah because I 1678 01:09:31,240 --> 01:09:30,080 think that's just a sensation that 1679 01:09:35,830 --> 01:09:31,250 they're having that you're shooting it 1680 01:09:37,990 --> 01:09:35,840 down you you are yeah basically yeah 1681 01:09:40,990 --> 01:09:38,000 yeah that's I think that's a good way to 1682 01:09:43,810 --> 01:09:41,000 put are you shooting it down I have to 1683 01:09:47,470 --> 01:09:43,820 ask in regards to the the tick-tack UFO 1684 01:09:49,270 --> 01:09:47,480 incident after after the probably I 1685 01:09:52,750 --> 01:09:49,280 would imagine heavy critique that you 1686 01:09:55,780 --> 01:09:52,760 got for some of your interpretations of 1687 01:09:57,850 --> 01:09:55,790 seagulls and reflections in the cockpit 1688 01:10:00,280 --> 01:09:57,860 which I have to admit made me laugh a 1689 01:10:01,630 --> 01:10:00,290 little bit because if I understand that 1690 01:10:04,720 --> 01:10:01,640 you are presenting an alternative 1691 01:10:06,640 --> 01:10:04,730 explanation to kind of calm with let's 1692 01:10:09,550 --> 01:10:06,650 let's look at it more carefully and 1693 01:10:13,510 --> 01:10:09,560 let's I totally get that but it to 1694 01:10:16,240 --> 01:10:13,520 people who are let's say who have really 1695 01:10:18,190 --> 01:10:16,250 dug into the incident who have listened 1696 01:10:20,500 --> 01:10:18,200 to the witness reports from all of the 1697 01:10:24,730 --> 01:10:20,510 pilots who saw exactly the same thing or 1698 01:10:26,020 --> 01:10:24,740 the the radar where witnesses who was 1699 01:10:28,720 --> 01:10:26,030 sitting at the radar controllers who 1700 01:10:31,780 --> 01:10:28,730 have not come out and you know witness 1701 01:10:32,950 --> 01:10:31,790 that we didn't see this in this and and 1702 01:10:35,770 --> 01:10:32,960 if you take all of this into 1703 01:10:38,520 --> 01:10:35,780 consideration and a correlation of and 1704 01:10:41,110 --> 01:10:38,530 and try to draw a red line through it 1705 01:10:44,620 --> 01:10:41,120 how do you feel now about that incident 1706 01:10:49,750 --> 01:10:44,630 you feel that I think it's it's 1707 01:10:54,670 --> 01:10:49,760 unidentified objects I mean it was 1708 01:10:56,170 --> 01:10:54,680 probably flying I don't know what what's 1709 01:10:57,520 --> 01:10:56,180 what he saw and I've been 1710 01:10:58,690 --> 01:10:57,530 I've still been fairly active like the 1711 01:11:01,230 --> 01:10:58,700 last couple of days I've been spending 1712 01:11:04,720 --> 01:11:01,240 time on Twitter and I actually made a 1713 01:11:08,560 --> 01:11:04,730 small model of the the tic-tac which I 1714 01:11:10,540 --> 01:11:08,570 have right here so I can do some 1715 01:11:12,190 --> 01:11:10,550 experiments with like me and bringing it 1716 01:11:13,930 --> 01:11:12,200 closer to the camera or and bringing it 1717 01:11:15,490 --> 01:11:13,940 further away and seeing what it looks 1718 01:11:17,530 --> 01:11:15,500 like in the distance and seeing if I can 1719 01:11:20,620 --> 01:11:17,540 match up the video so it's still active 1720 01:11:23,470 --> 01:11:20,630 ongoing discussion one of these videos 1721 01:11:25,840 --> 01:11:23,480 show the the eyewitness accounts I think 1722 01:11:28,090 --> 01:11:25,850 are a bit variable like for example 1723 01:11:32,200 --> 01:11:28,100 you've got like an interview with Chad 1724 01:11:34,540 --> 01:11:32,210 Underwood who is a guy who is he took 1725 01:11:37,360 --> 01:11:34,550 the video at the famous video of the the 1726 01:11:39,430 --> 01:11:37,370 tic-tac in the distance and in his 1727 01:11:41,770 --> 01:11:39,440 interview he talks about the incredible 1728 01:11:43,570 --> 01:11:41,780 maneuvers that it made then in the 1729 01:11:45,820 --> 01:11:43,580 interview it makes it seem like he 1730 01:11:47,230 --> 01:11:45,830 actually saw these maneuvers but really 1731 01:11:49,270 --> 01:11:47,240 he's talking about what other people 1732 01:11:51,520 --> 01:11:49,280 said they saw and so you get all this 1733 01:11:54,730 --> 01:11:51,530 kind of conflation of these different 1734 01:11:57,520 --> 01:11:54,740 accounts and it seems like you've got 1735 01:11:59,790 --> 01:11:57,530 this one cohesive whole when really you 1736 01:12:03,130 --> 01:11:59,800 still have really all these separate 1737 01:12:05,560 --> 01:12:03,140 accounts you have the the video which 1738 01:12:07,150 --> 01:12:05,570 shows this black fuzzy dot like far away 1739 01:12:09,220 --> 01:12:07,160 and the distance that kind of jumps 1740 01:12:12,550 --> 01:12:09,230 around as they change the camera zoom 1741 01:12:14,620 --> 01:12:12,560 lenses and the infrared visible yeah you 1742 01:12:18,460 --> 01:12:14,630 have people talking about radar returns 1743 01:12:21,100 --> 01:12:18,470 where this object was at 20,000 feet and 1744 01:12:22,890 --> 01:12:21,110 it dropped to 500 feet and or underneath 1745 01:12:26,970 --> 01:12:22,900 the water depending on who you talk to 1746 01:12:29,770 --> 01:12:26,980 yeah and then you have the accounts of 1747 01:12:32,140 --> 01:12:29,780 commander flavor and the the the other 1748 01:12:35,260 --> 01:12:32,150 pilot who said that they were vetted out 1749 01:12:37,890 --> 01:12:35,270 to a certain location and then it looked 1750 01:12:41,740 --> 01:12:37,900 down and they saw this this this little 1751 01:12:43,930 --> 01:12:41,750 tic-tac thing flying around above the 1752 01:12:46,270 --> 01:12:43,940 surface of the water and then they flew 1753 01:12:49,300 --> 01:12:46,280 down and it flew around them and then it 1754 01:12:51,310 --> 01:12:49,310 zipped off away horizontally these are 1755 01:12:53,710 --> 01:12:51,320 all different things they don't really 1756 01:12:55,750 --> 01:12:53,720 correlate like the you know being 1757 01:12:57,700 --> 01:12:55,760 vectored to a particular location that 1758 01:13:00,190 --> 01:12:57,710 was just you pretty much anywhere within 1759 01:13:02,890 --> 01:13:00,200 like five mile square radius because 1760 01:13:05,260 --> 01:13:02,900 there that they got to the location that 1761 01:13:07,000 --> 01:13:05,270 they're still going at 200 miles an hour 1762 01:13:08,650 --> 01:13:07,010 and it takes a little while before they 1763 01:13:10,030 --> 01:13:08,660 finally spot something and that's like 1764 01:13:12,400 --> 01:13:10,040 20,000 feet down 1765 01:13:14,740 --> 01:13:12,410 which 20,000 fetus is like four miles 1766 01:13:16,860 --> 01:13:14,750 down and you know who knows what angle 1767 01:13:20,020 --> 01:13:16,870 that's that so it's probably miles away 1768 01:13:21,400 --> 01:13:20,030 and that's they didn't see some things 1769 01:13:23,320 --> 01:13:21,410 drop out of the sky which is what the 1770 01:13:24,670 --> 01:13:23,330 radar saw and they didn't see something 1771 01:13:26,500 --> 01:13:24,680 far away in the distance moving very 1772 01:13:29,020 --> 01:13:26,510 slowly which is what Chad Underwood 1773 01:13:29,950 --> 01:13:29,030 filmed in his fuzzy little video so 1774 01:13:31,990 --> 01:13:29,960 you've got all these different things 1775 01:13:33,280 --> 01:13:32,000 and people put them all together and 1776 01:13:35,200 --> 01:13:33,290 then they say like oh people on the ship 1777 01:13:36,850 --> 01:13:35,210 we're using these these big eye 1778 01:13:39,220 --> 01:13:36,860 binoculars to see these little white 1779 01:13:40,870 --> 01:13:39,230 specks off in the distance those white 1780 01:13:43,330 --> 01:13:40,880 specks I'm afraid to say might have 1781 01:13:44,770 --> 01:13:43,340 actually been seagulls people take all 1782 01:13:45,880 --> 01:13:44,780 these things and they say oh there's all 1783 01:13:48,250 --> 01:13:45,890 these people having all these different 1784 01:13:51,030 --> 01:13:48,260 sightings and that means that there 1785 01:13:54,310 --> 01:13:51,040 definitely was something going on Oh 1786 01:13:55,510 --> 01:13:54,320 does it really mean from what ie from 1787 01:13:57,160 --> 01:13:55,520 what I understand there were three 1788 01:13:58,600 --> 01:13:57,170 different incidents is that correct one 1789 01:14:01,450 --> 01:13:58,610 on the East Coast one on the west coast 1790 01:14:03,340 --> 01:14:01,460 and no two on the west coast and one on 1791 01:14:05,590 --> 01:14:03,350 the East Coast right there is basically 1792 01:14:10,210 --> 01:14:05,600 two incidents those the the nimitz 1793 01:14:11,080 --> 01:14:10,220 incident which happened in 2003 or 1794 01:14:13,180 --> 01:14:11,090 something like that 1795 01:14:14,770 --> 01:14:13,190 quite a while ago and then there's a 1796 01:14:16,630 --> 01:14:14,780 more recent one which happened on the 1797 01:14:18,760 --> 01:14:16,640 East Coast which has two videos called 1798 01:14:21,010 --> 01:14:18,770 the the go-fast video and the gimbal 1799 01:14:22,840 --> 01:14:21,020 video we should be shot within minutes 1800 01:14:24,940 --> 01:14:22,850 of each other and from the same plane 1801 01:14:26,920 --> 01:14:24,950 with the same people and they just 1802 01:14:28,630 --> 01:14:26,930 showed two different unidentified 1803 01:14:29,860 --> 01:14:28,640 objects that they picked up using the 1804 01:14:33,250 --> 01:14:29,870 Fleur system they're forward-looking 1805 01:14:35,020 --> 01:14:33,260 infrared camera the second incident the 1806 01:14:38,200 --> 01:14:35,030 later incident has a different set of 1807 01:14:39,700 --> 01:14:38,210 people entirely and originally it was 1808 01:14:41,170 --> 01:14:39,710 just these two videos but I think some 1809 01:14:43,960 --> 01:14:41,180 guys have stepped forward and said oh 1810 01:14:46,810 --> 01:14:43,970 yeah we occasionally see these weird 1811 01:14:48,820 --> 01:14:46,820 flying objects and they have some 1812 01:14:49,990 --> 01:14:48,830 various accounts of them but the main 1813 01:14:51,430 --> 01:14:50,000 one people are interested in is the 1814 01:14:53,230 --> 01:14:51,440 nimitz incident because there's so many 1815 01:14:55,120 --> 01:14:53,240 different people have come out to 1816 01:14:57,430 --> 01:14:55,130 discuss what they saw or what they heard 1817 01:14:58,810 --> 01:14:57,440 or what it's not on the radar or you 1818 01:15:02,080 --> 01:14:58,820 know some people like say they saw the 1819 01:15:03,010 --> 01:15:02,090 original video and it's more detailed so 1820 01:15:04,990 --> 01:15:03,020 there's a lot more people can be 1821 01:15:06,780 --> 01:15:05,000 involved in that one something I've been 1822 01:15:10,180 --> 01:15:06,790 talking about and that's what the 1823 01:15:12,100 --> 01:15:10,190 tic-tac actually is yeah I took that 1824 01:15:17,410 --> 01:15:12,110 model it's a cute little I gotta make 1825 01:15:20,020 --> 01:15:17,420 more of those is a serious function in 1826 01:15:22,570 --> 01:15:20,030 that I can use it to test our hypotheses 1827 01:15:23,560 --> 01:15:22,580 for what does something look like on 1828 01:15:24,820 --> 01:15:23,570 video Wilson 1829 01:15:27,100 --> 01:15:24,830 thing that shaped like this actually 1830 01:15:30,550 --> 01:15:27,110 creates the shapes that we can see on 1831 01:15:33,340 --> 01:15:30,560 the actual video but yes yeah my ear 1832 01:15:35,200 --> 01:15:33,350 Emmett III I do have a fuller camera 1833 01:15:36,850 --> 01:15:35,210 it's on my desk somewhere down but it's 1834 01:15:38,440 --> 01:15:36,860 not a very high resolution one and it's 1835 01:15:40,450 --> 01:15:38,450 not actually the same wavelength so it 1836 01:15:42,940 --> 01:15:40,460 doesn't actually create the same thing 1837 01:15:44,230 --> 01:15:42,950 however a lot of that video from the 1838 01:15:48,970 --> 01:15:44,240 nimitz encounter is actually in 1839 01:15:51,190 --> 01:15:48,980 invisible light oh yes signature no it's 1840 01:15:54,580 --> 01:15:51,200 just it's just it's the actual object 1841 01:15:56,860 --> 01:15:54,590 itself that you are see okay it's only 1842 01:15:57,730 --> 01:15:56,870 black which means that it's backlit 1843 01:16:00,280 --> 01:15:57,740 which means all you're seeing 1844 01:16:02,200 --> 01:16:00,290 essentially is the shape of the object 1845 01:16:04,150 --> 01:16:02,210 and it's really fuzzy which means it's 1846 01:16:08,380 --> 01:16:04,160 out of focus but because it's so so far 1847 01:16:11,680 --> 01:16:08,390 away so so I can I can actually 1848 01:16:13,690 --> 01:16:11,690 replicate the conditions using a scale 1849 01:16:16,810 --> 01:16:13,700 model this is a reasonable sale scale 1850 01:16:18,880 --> 01:16:16,820 what I used to use my my iPhone earbud 1851 01:16:21,010 --> 01:16:18,890 case and before then I was actually 1852 01:16:22,690 --> 01:16:21,020 using a real tic-tac which which is a 1853 01:16:24,730 --> 01:16:22,700 bit impractical because it's you know 1854 01:16:25,960 --> 01:16:24,740 it's that's not big but yeah it's I'm 1855 01:16:27,190 --> 01:16:25,970 going discussion hopefully I'm going to 1856 01:16:29,670 --> 01:16:27,200 speak to some of the people who were 1857 01:16:33,340 --> 01:16:29,680 involved at some point and maybe we can 1858 01:16:35,350 --> 01:16:33,350 reach some common ground yeah what do 1859 01:16:36,880 --> 01:16:35,360 you like I mean you what you want to get 1860 01:16:39,190 --> 01:16:36,890 to the truth that's that's basically the 1861 01:16:47,230 --> 01:16:39,200 point yeah I guess lutely yet like what 1862 01:16:51,580 --> 01:16:47,240 is the truth and and if am I gonna put 1863 01:16:54,880 --> 01:16:51,590 this if like like the Navy coming out 1864 01:16:56,740 --> 01:16:54,890 and basically saying that yeah these 1865 01:16:59,290 --> 01:16:56,750 videos are real and and and it's 1866 01:17:01,000 --> 01:16:59,300 unidentified and it's and that's that's 1867 01:17:04,870 --> 01:17:01,010 all there is to it 1868 01:17:06,790 --> 01:17:04,880 you feel that it it makes the case more 1869 01:17:08,470 --> 01:17:06,800 serious in a way I've always assumed 1870 01:17:11,320 --> 01:17:08,480 that the videos were real and that they 1871 01:17:13,690 --> 01:17:11,330 show some unidentified object and they 1872 01:17:15,280 --> 01:17:13,700 show little black dots how can you 1873 01:17:18,370 --> 01:17:15,290 identify there's no way of identifying 1874 01:17:20,110 --> 01:17:18,380 it from those videos and people said 1875 01:17:22,390 --> 01:17:20,120 that the videos were hoaxed or faked by 1876 01:17:24,310 --> 01:17:22,400 you know I never saw any indication of 1877 01:17:26,410 --> 01:17:24,320 that before and I always worked with the 1878 01:17:29,590 --> 01:17:26,420 assumption from the very start when the 1879 01:17:30,670 --> 01:17:29,600 videos came out and well that the the 1880 01:17:32,170 --> 01:17:30,680 pneumix when I've been out for a long 1881 01:17:34,300 --> 01:17:32,180 time but the other two came out in 1882 01:17:36,370 --> 01:17:34,310 December 2017 from the very start I was 1883 01:17:37,419 --> 01:17:36,380 analyzing them as if they were genuine 1884 01:17:41,590 --> 01:17:37,429 video shot 1885 01:17:43,510 --> 01:17:41,600 a navy Navy plane with real pilots and 1886 01:17:44,979 --> 01:17:43,520 real objects you know that wasn't that 1887 01:17:48,490 --> 01:17:44,989 changed nothing to me either 1888 01:17:51,669 --> 01:17:48,500 but then people take this this the Navy 1889 01:17:54,040 --> 01:17:51,679 says the videos are real as if it means 1890 01:17:56,290 --> 01:17:54,050 the Navy says that alien space yeah 1891 01:17:59,140 --> 01:17:56,300 after real yeah which is a bit of a leap 1892 01:18:01,870 --> 01:17:59,150 all it means is that Oh a pilot in a 1893 01:18:03,040 --> 01:18:01,880 navy plane shot this video yeah that's 1894 01:18:05,530 --> 01:18:03,050 all it means that we couldn't identify 1895 01:18:07,030 --> 01:18:05,540 this thing it's long as you couldn't 1896 01:18:09,250 --> 01:18:07,040 identify this thing because it was tiny 1897 01:18:11,169 --> 01:18:09,260 I mean you can't identify everything 1898 01:18:12,850 --> 01:18:11,179 that's on the table behind me because 1899 01:18:15,220 --> 01:18:12,860 it's it's just too small to see it's 1900 01:18:16,959 --> 01:18:15,230 just too far away if it's big enough can 1901 01:18:19,810 --> 01:18:16,969 identify it I can bring things closer 1902 01:18:22,840 --> 01:18:19,820 you can identify it you got this typical 1903 01:18:25,000 --> 01:18:22,850 low information situation for all UFOs 1904 01:18:26,080 --> 01:18:25,010 where you you can't identify them and 1905 01:18:27,970 --> 01:18:26,090 they remain unidentified 1906 01:18:29,410 --> 01:18:27,980 not because they're weird shapes or 1907 01:18:31,770 --> 01:18:29,420 anything like that but because they're 1908 01:18:34,750 --> 01:18:31,780 too far away 1909 01:18:37,240 --> 01:18:34,760 it's a have you heard of a group called 1910 01:18:39,399 --> 01:18:37,250 the disclosure project and a character 1911 01:18:39,970 --> 01:18:39,409 called Steven Greer oh yeah yeah I've 1912 01:18:41,260 --> 01:18:39,980 heard of them 1913 01:18:43,330 --> 01:18:41,270 I haven't looked into you too much I 1914 01:18:46,419 --> 01:18:43,340 think I watched the presentation that 1915 01:18:49,140 --> 01:18:46,429 they did where they had a bunch of old 1916 01:18:52,750 --> 01:18:49,150 men old men for want of a better retired 1917 01:18:55,120 --> 01:18:52,760 government and military officials who 1918 01:18:57,550 --> 01:18:55,130 stood up and said I saw a light outside 1919 01:18:59,919 --> 01:18:57,560 a nuclear silo and things like that and 1920 01:19:01,419 --> 01:18:59,929 this went on for some time and you know 1921 01:19:03,850 --> 01:19:01,429 it seemed like it was a big weight of 1922 01:19:08,110 --> 01:19:03,860 evidence there that there were commonly 1923 01:19:11,979 --> 01:19:08,120 mysterious craft buzzing various places 1924 01:19:13,090 --> 01:19:11,989 and sneer gear say this was but then you 1925 01:19:14,830 --> 01:19:13,100 look at some of the other stuff the gear 1926 01:19:17,770 --> 01:19:14,840 puts out like he I think he posted a 1927 01:19:19,780 --> 01:19:17,780 picture of a campfire he and there was 1928 01:19:21,669 --> 01:19:19,790 like a silhouette or something sat in 1929 01:19:23,470 --> 01:19:21,679 one of the chairs around the campfire 1930 01:19:26,229 --> 01:19:23,480 and it's just like you're ridiculous 1931 01:19:27,939 --> 01:19:26,239 nonsense so you don't really make it 1932 01:19:29,740 --> 01:19:27,949 seem I mentioned trust is older stuff 1933 01:19:32,050 --> 01:19:29,750 either I don't know if I told you but I 1934 01:19:35,560 --> 01:19:32,060 was very involved with that group of 1935 01:19:37,120 --> 01:19:35,570 people I traveled to the yeah I talk 1936 01:19:40,780 --> 01:19:37,130 about this in the previous podcast in a 1937 01:19:43,360 --> 01:19:40,790 way I'm wearing two UFOs yeah and 1938 01:19:45,280 --> 01:19:43,370 popsicles heck with them basically we 1939 01:19:48,580 --> 01:19:45,290 were going out doing these meditations 1940 01:19:50,830 --> 01:19:48,590 with Steven gray and it was it was 1941 01:19:51,219 --> 01:19:50,840 basically a cult it really was it was a 1942 01:19:56,799 --> 01:19:51,229 call 1943 01:19:58,209 --> 01:19:56,809 but interesting he um he put out a was 1944 01:20:01,899 --> 01:19:58,219 something that he was worried about 1945 01:20:03,819 --> 01:20:01,909 Stephen gray he put out this he also did 1946 01:20:06,729 --> 01:20:03,829 it during the press conference in 2001 1947 01:20:08,080 --> 01:20:06,739 where he what he's worried about is that 1948 01:20:10,479 --> 01:20:08,090 this is going to end up in military 1949 01:20:12,810 --> 01:20:10,489 hands and that the whole topic is going 1950 01:20:16,089 --> 01:20:12,820 to be basically put into a militarized 1951 01:20:19,660 --> 01:20:16,099 perspective and then I went on History 1952 01:20:22,229 --> 01:20:19,670 Channel and I watched this new blink-182 1953 01:20:27,879 --> 01:20:26,020 Tom DeLonge and this Starlite 1954 01:20:30,129 --> 01:20:27,889 organization and everything and that 1955 01:20:33,339 --> 01:20:30,139 there it's full of former military 1956 01:20:36,759 --> 01:20:33,349 people and Pentagon officials and 1957 01:20:38,680 --> 01:20:36,769 they're going around investigating this 1958 01:20:41,350 --> 01:20:38,690 subject in the wrong way 1959 01:20:43,899 --> 01:20:41,360 trying to get witnesses allegedly 1960 01:20:48,430 --> 01:20:43,909 material and all this stuff but it's 1961 01:20:52,390 --> 01:20:48,440 only a group of military people and the 1962 01:20:54,459 --> 01:20:52,400 whole TV series is the putting on this 1963 01:20:58,169 --> 01:20:54,469 music of course that is really hyped up 1964 01:21:02,500 --> 01:20:58,179 and it's exciting and intense and it's 1965 01:21:05,680 --> 01:21:02,510 spooky and the whole language with with 1966 01:21:07,989 --> 01:21:05,690 with in the TV series and the way that 1967 01:21:10,689 --> 01:21:07,999 they're talking about this subject is as 1968 01:21:14,500 --> 01:21:10,699 if it's the question of a threat the 1969 01:21:17,879 --> 01:21:14,510 question of intent and the possibility 1970 01:21:22,000 --> 01:21:17,889 that they can have with this technology 1971 01:21:24,479 --> 01:21:22,010 if if they are here if you know ETS and 1972 01:21:28,089 --> 01:21:24,489 what what they want to do with us and 1973 01:21:31,629 --> 01:21:28,099 they are communicating this nimitz 1974 01:21:34,689 --> 01:21:31,639 incident as if it was a way of 1975 01:21:39,040 --> 01:21:34,699 demonstrating technology from their side 1976 01:21:41,830 --> 01:21:39,050 and what they're capable of as in a kind 1977 01:21:43,750 --> 01:21:41,840 of a threatening behavior and I'm I have 1978 01:21:47,199 --> 01:21:43,760 to say I'm really worried that this is 1979 01:21:52,000 --> 01:21:47,209 being shown in this way but it's being 1980 01:21:54,969 --> 01:21:52,010 presented in the spooky kind of 1981 01:21:58,149 --> 01:21:54,979 militaristic sense and that this has 1982 01:22:00,669 --> 01:21:58,159 been left to military people I think 1983 01:22:02,589 --> 01:22:00,679 that's the last people who should have 1984 01:22:03,669 --> 01:22:02,599 this issue I'm not sure if I have the 1985 01:22:05,830 --> 01:22:03,679 same 1986 01:22:09,010 --> 01:22:05,840 so that when I look at the to the start 1987 01:22:10,600 --> 01:22:09,020 Academy this is obviously the one 1988 01:22:12,939 --> 01:22:10,610 military guy Lou 1989 01:22:14,820 --> 01:22:12,949 Elizondo he was military but he was 1990 01:22:19,270 --> 01:22:14,830 involved in I think like something like 1991 01:22:21,790 --> 01:22:19,280 bodyguard details and classifying 1992 01:22:23,050 --> 01:22:21,800 documents I mean he wasn't like a secret 1993 01:22:25,930 --> 01:22:23,060 agent or something like that he wasn't 1994 01:22:28,899 --> 01:22:25,940 like you know Navy SEAL only he was like 1995 01:22:31,000 --> 01:22:28,909 a long time ago but yeah he is basically 1996 01:22:34,450 --> 01:22:31,010 a bureaucrat and then you have Chris 1997 01:22:37,930 --> 01:22:34,460 Mellon assistant to the assistant deputy 1998 01:22:38,530 --> 01:22:37,940 secretary for defense which sounds very 1999 01:22:41,680 --> 01:22:38,540 impressive 2000 01:22:43,360 --> 01:22:41,690 but it's yeah yeah down is really down 2001 01:22:46,860 --> 01:22:43,370 the hierarchy there's lots of assistant 2002 01:22:49,060 --> 01:22:46,870 secretaries assistant deputy secretaries 2003 01:22:52,780 --> 01:22:49,070 he's the government guy he's not really 2004 01:22:56,709 --> 01:22:52,790 a military guy and you've got Washington 2005 01:22:59,590 --> 01:22:56,719 named justice Steve just Asst he outside 2006 01:23:01,570 --> 01:22:59,600 I believe at Lockheed Martin headed over 2007 01:23:03,760 --> 01:23:01,580 scope works thank you said luck I think 2008 01:23:08,020 --> 01:23:03,770 he's luck he's not in military you know 2009 01:23:09,669 --> 01:23:08,030 military industrial company and again 2010 01:23:13,720 --> 01:23:09,679 he's not really military he's an 2011 01:23:15,580 --> 01:23:13,730 engineer and an engineering manager for 2012 01:23:17,590 --> 01:23:15,590 the last like 20 years or so he managed 2013 01:23:19,290 --> 01:23:17,600 teams of people he's an engineer he's 2014 01:23:22,600 --> 01:23:19,300 got patents and things he's a clever guy 2015 01:23:24,640 --> 01:23:22,610 and you've got help it off who's not 2016 01:23:26,830 --> 01:23:24,650 military at all unless he did some kind 2017 01:23:30,399 --> 01:23:26,840 of national service a long time ago he's 2018 01:23:33,220 --> 01:23:30,409 a former Scientologists and you know a 2019 01:23:35,979 --> 01:23:33,230 big can I really yeah yeah a long time 2020 01:23:38,169 --> 01:23:35,989 ago he I think he left in the seventies 2021 01:23:40,870 --> 01:23:38,179 he's a guy who basically works in or 2022 01:23:42,850 --> 01:23:40,880 alternative science like theorizing 2023 01:23:45,459 --> 01:23:42,860 about war crimes and things like that 2024 01:23:48,100 --> 01:23:45,469 and he's doing very interested in UFOs 2025 01:23:49,600 --> 01:23:48,110 and there's some other people whose 2026 01:23:50,890 --> 01:23:49,610 names I don't remember but it's not I 2027 01:23:53,560 --> 01:23:50,900 don't really see it as being 2028 01:23:54,729 --> 01:23:53,570 particularly this militaristic thing you 2029 01:23:58,450 --> 01:23:54,739 know they do have these connections to 2030 01:24:01,660 --> 01:23:58,460 the military they they just his he's 2031 01:24:03,490 --> 01:24:01,670 headed by a rock star yeah long from 2032 01:24:04,990 --> 01:24:03,500 blink 182 so that's not military at all 2033 01:24:07,990 --> 01:24:05,000 that you could say that's just some kind 2034 01:24:09,790 --> 01:24:08,000 of shield then they had this recent 2035 01:24:10,780 --> 01:24:09,800 thing where they they signed this I 2036 01:24:12,419 --> 01:24:10,790 think it's called a CRADA 2037 01:24:14,680 --> 01:24:12,429 that's kind of a common research 2038 01:24:16,930 --> 01:24:14,690 application development agreement or 2039 01:24:19,180 --> 01:24:16,940 something either with the earth 2040 01:24:21,700 --> 01:24:19,190 with with the army not the other the 2041 01:24:25,030 --> 01:24:21,710 army okay yes and not just the army 2042 01:24:29,470 --> 01:24:25,040 specifically ground vehicles within the 2043 01:24:31,630 --> 01:24:29,480 army well you think like you but they've 2044 01:24:34,930 --> 01:24:31,640 got UFO technology why are they 2045 01:24:38,370 --> 01:24:34,940 researching it for ground vehicles yeah 2046 01:24:41,530 --> 01:24:38,380 and I think what it actually is is that 2047 01:24:43,420 --> 01:24:41,540 the to the Stars Academy the Tom 2048 01:24:46,060 --> 01:24:43,430 DeLong's company which has all these 2049 01:24:48,280 --> 01:24:46,070 people in it they they figured out the 2050 01:24:49,630 --> 01:24:48,290 way to get into the military was to 2051 01:24:51,580 --> 01:24:49,640 assign one of these these cried 2052 01:24:53,979 --> 01:24:51,590 agreements and the way they figured out 2053 01:24:55,450 --> 01:24:53,989 and doing it was to first of all signed 2054 01:24:58,450 --> 01:24:55,460 a partnership agreement with this other 2055 01:25:00,070 --> 01:24:58,460 company trooper global true cleared 2056 01:25:01,510 --> 01:25:00,080 global as to named this company so the 2057 01:25:04,330 --> 01:25:01,520 to the Stars Academy signs that with 2058 01:25:06,100 --> 01:25:04,340 true clear global truth to Klug Global's 2059 01:25:10,030 --> 01:25:06,110 thing is they they're in advertising 2060 01:25:11,800 --> 01:25:10,040 display company they make projectors and 2061 01:25:13,209 --> 01:25:11,810 screens that people come like project 2062 01:25:16,360 --> 01:25:13,219 things onto the sides of buildings or 2063 01:25:18,700 --> 01:25:16,370 onto screens and things yeah the 2064 01:25:22,420 --> 01:25:18,710 military is interested in what they call 2065 01:25:26,170 --> 01:25:22,430 active camouflage which means in this 2066 01:25:28,450 --> 01:25:26,180 context sometimes projecting images of 2067 01:25:29,920 --> 01:25:28,460 things in front of other things and 2068 01:25:32,320 --> 01:25:29,930 making it look like they're not there 2069 01:25:34,240 --> 01:25:32,330 I say you're a desert you project an 2070 01:25:35,770 --> 01:25:34,250 image of the sky behind tank onto a 2071 01:25:37,930 --> 01:25:35,780 screen in front of the tank and it makes 2072 01:25:40,930 --> 01:25:37,940 it look like that they're not there no 2073 01:25:42,939 --> 01:25:40,940 true clear global has this technology 2074 01:25:44,709 --> 01:25:42,949 and they were just this this little 2075 01:25:47,140 --> 01:25:44,719 advertising projection company they 2076 01:25:49,060 --> 01:25:47,150 wanted to get into the military somebody 2077 01:25:51,520 --> 01:25:49,070 knows somebody and they say oh Tom 2078 01:25:53,200 --> 01:25:51,530 DeLonge you know has this Lou Elizondo 2079 01:25:55,840 --> 01:25:53,210 has some contacts in the Pentagon still 2080 01:25:58,750 --> 01:25:55,850 if so we can sign up with two stars 2081 01:26:01,120 --> 01:25:58,760 Academy and then who use his contacts 2082 01:26:03,580 --> 01:26:01,130 just sign this krodha so that the 2083 01:26:04,990 --> 01:26:03,590 military can get this yes active 2084 01:26:06,459 --> 01:26:05,000 camouflage stuff that they're interested 2085 01:26:08,979 --> 01:26:06,469 in which is basically just fancy 2086 01:26:11,740 --> 01:26:08,989 projection screens and yeah icon this 2087 01:26:13,330 --> 01:26:11,750 stuff about analyzing materials onto 2088 01:26:16,570 --> 01:26:13,340 this crud er which gives us access 2089 01:26:17,709 --> 01:26:16,580 government labs and so I think that's 2090 01:26:19,600 --> 01:26:17,719 pretty much what happened I don't think 2091 01:26:22,330 --> 01:26:19,610 the military is really expecting that 2092 01:26:24,100 --> 01:26:22,340 people sending in random bits of metal 2093 01:26:26,050 --> 01:26:24,110 they found on the roadside after they 2094 01:26:29,169 --> 01:26:26,060 think they saw a UFO is really going to 2095 01:26:30,729 --> 01:26:29,179 go anywhere right really interested in 2096 01:26:32,500 --> 01:26:30,739 is just this active 2097 01:26:34,149 --> 01:26:32,510 life's tough and if something comes out 2098 01:26:36,549 --> 01:26:34,159 of the the other stuff that would be 2099 01:26:40,479 --> 01:26:36,559 great but it's not really like the main 2100 01:26:43,149 --> 01:26:40,489 focus so okay it feels like from the 2101 01:26:45,879 --> 01:26:43,159 outside there's this big big thing going 2102 01:26:47,729 --> 01:26:45,889 on like there's this company disclosing 2103 01:26:50,410 --> 01:26:47,739 UFO technology and they've got this 2104 01:26:53,109 --> 01:26:50,420 secret agreement to work with the Army 2105 01:26:55,390 --> 01:26:53,119 in their labs but really the you could 2106 01:26:57,399 --> 01:26:55,400 look into it it doesn't really seem to 2107 01:27:00,009 --> 01:26:57,409 be that much there there's not really 2108 01:27:01,390 --> 01:27:00,019 very much going on military why's there 2109 01:27:06,060 --> 01:27:01,400 there's no real connections to the 2110 01:27:08,709 --> 01:27:06,070 military it's just like oh yeah I'm sure 2111 01:27:10,299 --> 01:27:08,719 maybe there is you know like you said 2112 01:27:11,950 --> 01:27:10,309 earlier like we can't rule things out a 2113 01:27:13,839 --> 01:27:11,960 hundred percent see maybe this is all 2114 01:27:16,629 --> 01:27:13,849 part of some great plot to disclose 2115 01:27:18,939 --> 01:27:16,639 things in a very strange way by first of 2116 01:27:21,069 --> 01:27:18,949 all softening up the public by having 2117 01:27:22,600 --> 01:27:21,079 Tom DeLonge explain things and then the 2118 01:27:24,279 --> 01:27:22,610 aliens will sell off their ship on to 2119 01:27:27,549 --> 01:27:24,289 the White House lawn in a few years time 2120 01:27:30,430 --> 01:27:27,559 I think no I think it's just a bunch of 2121 01:27:31,989 --> 01:27:30,440 guys who are interested in UFOs who 2122 01:27:34,089 --> 01:27:31,999 found themselves in various positions 2123 01:27:36,279 --> 01:27:34,099 and then they got together and they 2124 01:27:38,140 --> 01:27:36,289 thought well let's let's do some more 2125 01:27:40,839 --> 01:27:38,150 UFO stuff it's cool I really am really 2126 01:27:44,169 --> 01:27:40,849 into UFOs Harry Reid a big politician in 2127 01:27:47,859 --> 01:27:44,179 the US for Masada his form of a house 2128 01:27:50,020 --> 01:27:47,869 Majority Leader leader in the house yeah 2129 01:27:51,819 --> 01:27:50,030 so it's like you know he you think he 2130 01:27:54,279 --> 01:27:51,829 would already know if there was a lian's 2131 01:27:55,810 --> 01:27:54,289 up there because he has access to the 2132 01:27:57,160 --> 01:27:55,820 military because he's like the leader of 2133 01:27:59,859 --> 01:27:57,170 the house thing of this leader of the 2134 01:28:01,450 --> 01:27:59,869 Senate I believe if you don't have 2135 01:28:03,100 --> 01:28:01,460 access to all these committees that we 2136 01:28:05,439 --> 01:28:03,110 should know this this secret stuff and 2137 01:28:06,790 --> 01:28:05,449 yeah he's here's his funneling 25 2138 01:28:09,910 --> 01:28:06,800 million dollars to his friends company 2139 01:28:13,390 --> 01:28:09,920 to investigate UFOs this way just cuz 2140 01:28:16,750 --> 01:28:13,400 it's a UFO family yeah yeah yeah but do 2141 01:28:19,750 --> 01:28:16,760 you think regardless of this this human 2142 01:28:21,700 --> 01:28:19,760 behavior in in within these communities 2143 01:28:23,259 --> 01:28:21,710 and groups do you think they're do you 2144 01:28:26,830 --> 01:28:23,269 think it's likely that we are being 2145 01:28:31,359 --> 01:28:26,840 visited now no I don't think it's my 2146 01:28:33,370 --> 01:28:31,369 plane I think the evidence for visitors 2147 01:28:35,919 --> 01:28:33,380 is very sketchy if you look at all the 2148 01:28:37,959 --> 01:28:35,929 things that people say and attribute to 2149 01:28:38,830 --> 01:28:37,969 alien visitations they're all over the 2150 01:28:41,560 --> 01:28:38,840 net there's all kinds of different 2151 01:28:43,629 --> 01:28:41,570 things going on if you think like how 2152 01:28:46,839 --> 01:28:43,639 could aliens get here let's go 2153 01:28:48,879 --> 01:28:46,849 problem like you know it's yeah yeah 2154 01:28:49,899 --> 01:28:48,889 they're gonna they're gonna make maybe 2155 01:28:51,759 --> 01:28:49,909 they've got faster-than-light 2156 01:28:53,350 --> 01:28:51,769 teleportation things maybe I can just 2157 01:28:55,689 --> 01:28:53,360 zip around the universe but you know we 2158 01:28:58,149 --> 01:28:55,699 have no evidence of that so we could 2159 01:29:00,520 --> 01:28:58,159 hypothesize all kinds of magical type 2160 01:29:01,959 --> 01:29:00,530 things that might explain lights in the 2161 01:29:03,549 --> 01:29:01,969 sky but you know why not just say 2162 01:29:05,770 --> 01:29:03,559 they're just lights in the sky and 2163 01:29:07,839 --> 01:29:05,780 mistaken them for something else saying 2164 01:29:09,399 --> 01:29:07,849 we see lights in the sky and we heard 2165 01:29:11,379 --> 01:29:09,409 people being abducted from the bedrooms 2166 01:29:12,639 --> 01:29:11,389 does that mean that aliens are visiting 2167 01:29:15,699 --> 01:29:12,649 us or is there a more prosaic 2168 01:29:17,439 --> 01:29:15,709 explanation here it's possible the 2169 01:29:20,159 --> 01:29:17,449 aliens are visiting is but I don't 2170 01:29:23,739 --> 01:29:20,169 really see any very compelling evidence 2171 01:29:25,870 --> 01:29:23,749 that aliens are visiting us now I know 2172 01:29:28,209 --> 01:29:25,880 other people like you for example will 2173 01:29:30,549 --> 01:29:28,219 probably think there is more compelling 2174 01:29:31,120 --> 01:29:30,559 evidence than than me because I you know 2175 01:29:33,790 --> 01:29:31,130 I just 2176 01:29:35,949 --> 01:29:33,800 perhaps tends to gravitate towards the 2177 01:29:38,979 --> 01:29:35,959 mundane explanation of things which may 2178 01:29:41,169 --> 01:29:38,989 be failing on my part but I think it's 2179 01:29:44,319 --> 01:29:41,179 kind of based on my experience and that 2180 01:29:48,040 --> 01:29:44,329 whenever I look into things they tend to 2181 01:29:49,839 --> 01:29:48,050 the magic falls away they tend to have a 2182 01:29:51,759 --> 01:29:49,849 mundane explanation someone shows the 2183 01:29:53,679 --> 01:29:51,769 picture of ghosts they tend to be not 2184 01:29:54,909 --> 01:29:53,689 bitter of ghosts there's a recent 2185 01:29:56,770 --> 01:29:54,919 there's a thing in the States right now 2186 01:29:59,319 --> 01:29:56,780 where there's people are saying that 2187 01:30:00,209 --> 01:29:59,329 there's a drone swarms going on over I 2188 01:30:03,850 --> 01:30:00,219 think 2189 01:30:06,339 --> 01:30:03,860 Colorado and Oklahoma yeah the middle of 2190 01:30:08,979 --> 01:30:06,349 the middle of the country states and 2191 01:30:10,689 --> 01:30:08,989 then they say oh we saw all this stuff 2192 01:30:12,370 --> 01:30:10,699 and there's thousands of reports the FAA 2193 01:30:13,870 --> 01:30:12,380 is looking into it the FBI is looking 2194 01:30:15,810 --> 01:30:13,880 into it the Sheriff's Department's 2195 01:30:17,949 --> 01:30:15,820 looking into it then the showing videos 2196 01:30:20,109 --> 01:30:17,959 it's like a shaky video of a like a 2197 01:30:21,969 --> 01:30:20,119 light somewhere and like there's one guy 2198 01:30:23,259 --> 01:30:21,979 driving at 70 miles an hour along the 2199 01:30:25,509 --> 01:30:23,269 road chasing a light on the horizon 2200 01:30:27,639 --> 01:30:25,519 which just happens to be where where 2201 01:30:30,009 --> 01:30:27,649 Venus usually is at the time of the 2202 01:30:32,589 --> 01:30:30,019 evening here's some other videos of 2203 01:30:35,109 --> 01:30:32,599 Lights which look exactly like buildings 2204 01:30:37,959 --> 01:30:35,119 on the horizon then there's a photo of 2205 01:30:40,389 --> 01:30:37,969 some lights which which is verifiably is 2206 01:30:42,339 --> 01:30:40,399 a plane even though it looks a bit weird 2207 01:30:44,139 --> 01:30:42,349 because it's where those those where 2208 01:30:45,310 --> 01:30:44,149 there the red central light lights of 2209 01:30:47,229 --> 01:30:45,320 the engine so it looks like you've got 2210 01:30:50,109 --> 01:30:47,239 these kind of weird things on either 2211 01:30:51,699 --> 01:30:50,119 side of this red light which looks like 2212 01:30:53,709 --> 01:30:51,709 some kind of TIE fighter or something 2213 01:30:55,419 --> 01:30:53,719 but yeah it is definitely a plane and 2214 01:30:56,840 --> 01:30:55,429 yet the media is saying this is part of 2215 01:30:59,210 --> 01:30:56,850 the new 2216 01:31:01,040 --> 01:30:59,220 region of the United States so you look 2217 01:31:04,430 --> 01:31:01,050 at I look into these things in my 2218 01:31:05,960 --> 01:31:04,440 experience the magic falls away and your 2219 01:31:08,330 --> 01:31:05,970 life is something that's mundane and so 2220 01:31:10,700 --> 01:31:08,340 I tend to gravitate towards that being 2221 01:31:12,710 --> 01:31:10,710 the default explanation after years and 2222 01:31:15,530 --> 01:31:12,720 years would be actually being the actual 2223 01:31:17,000 --> 01:31:15,540 explanation understandably so but I do 2224 01:31:23,900 --> 01:31:17,010 think that one day there will be an 2225 01:31:26,840 --> 01:31:23,910 exception so be great but have you 2226 01:31:29,240 --> 01:31:26,850 checked out the work of J Allen Hynek 2227 01:31:31,760 --> 01:31:29,250 the astronomer employed in the project 2228 01:31:34,160 --> 01:31:31,770 Bluebook no I really haven't 2229 01:31:37,820 --> 01:31:34,170 and people keep bringing him up but I 2230 01:31:41,690 --> 01:31:37,830 think I tended to shy away from the old 2231 01:31:43,670 --> 01:31:41,700 older stuff because it tends to not be 2232 01:31:45,440 --> 01:31:43,680 very interesting when you look into it 2233 01:31:47,840 --> 01:31:45,450 there isn't really very much there you 2234 01:31:50,030 --> 01:31:47,850 get these accounts that people go on and 2235 01:31:52,610 --> 01:31:50,040 on and on about about like you know some 2236 01:31:54,620 --> 01:31:52,620 guy stops by the side of the road and 2237 01:31:58,070 --> 01:31:54,630 his car got dented and he had these 2238 01:32:08,750 --> 01:31:58,080 burns on his chest or whatever of 2239 01:32:10,220 --> 01:32:08,760 generalisation actual case I mean it's 2240 01:32:11,450 --> 01:32:10,230 been it's been my experience that 2241 01:32:15,020 --> 01:32:11,460 because it's old 2242 01:32:17,570 --> 01:32:15,030 they don't have photographs and you the 2243 01:32:20,240 --> 01:32:17,580 people are often dead by now and so 2244 01:32:22,040 --> 01:32:20,250 you're left with essentially stories 2245 01:32:23,270 --> 01:32:22,050 from the past and what are you gonna do 2246 01:32:26,300 --> 01:32:23,280 with it and this is like an an 2247 01:32:29,180 --> 01:32:26,310 eyewitness who's dead what do we do with 2248 01:32:32,000 --> 01:32:29,190 this is the story that he says what 4050 2249 01:32:34,250 --> 01:32:32,010 years ago right I can okay it can be 2250 01:32:36,860 --> 01:32:34,260 hard to take it anywhere because it's so 2251 01:32:39,230 --> 01:32:36,870 long ago I totally see that but when you 2252 01:32:41,420 --> 01:32:39,240 have for example again like a guy like 2253 01:32:44,120 --> 01:32:41,430 Hynek who was employed to basically 2254 01:32:45,830 --> 01:32:44,130 debunk and and be skeptic of UFO 2255 01:32:49,250 --> 01:32:45,840 incidents and employed by the government 2256 01:32:52,730 --> 01:32:49,260 to do so and later than coming out 2257 01:32:56,990 --> 01:32:52,740 saying that this was actually a 2258 01:33:00,470 --> 01:32:57,000 government sort of plot to calm the 2259 01:33:02,450 --> 01:33:00,480 public down and that the observations 2260 01:33:04,340 --> 01:33:02,460 and what was being seen in the skies all 2261 01:33:06,920 --> 01:33:04,350 across the u.s. at that time the UFO 2262 01:33:10,280 --> 01:33:06,930 waves and all that that many of the 2263 01:33:14,630 --> 01:33:13,010 in admissions from him completely 2264 01:33:18,350 --> 01:33:14,640 unexplainable and that the government 2265 01:33:20,270 --> 01:33:18,360 did tried to find a plausible 2266 01:33:21,800 --> 01:33:20,280 you know down-to-earth explanation just 2267 01:33:25,550 --> 01:33:21,810 to calm people down because there was 2268 01:33:29,150 --> 01:33:25,560 hysterical tendencies back then but he 2269 01:33:31,520 --> 01:33:29,160 saw it as if you read his books is and 2270 01:33:34,370 --> 01:33:31,530 his testimony which I think carries just 2271 01:33:37,580 --> 01:33:34,380 as much weight today as it did back then 2272 01:33:39,890 --> 01:33:37,590 his experience as a transition from 2273 01:33:42,770 --> 01:33:39,900 working from the government being very 2274 01:33:45,229 --> 01:33:42,780 skeptical and very kind of in in his 2275 01:33:47,510 --> 01:33:45,239 words closed-minded previously as to 2276 01:33:50,270 --> 01:33:47,520 what these phenomenons were and then 2277 01:33:52,370 --> 01:33:50,280 moving into that that there is something 2278 01:33:54,530 --> 01:33:52,380 going on and saying that the government 2279 01:33:57,800 --> 01:33:54,540 has actually no clue as to what these 2280 01:34:00,410 --> 01:33:57,810 things are and they they are worried and 2281 01:34:03,590 --> 01:34:00,420 are having trouble understanding what's 2282 01:34:07,160 --> 01:34:03,600 going on and they what they needed him 2283 01:34:10,430 --> 01:34:07,170 for was basically just as a public face 2284 01:34:12,830 --> 01:34:10,440 for the public to identify with and feel 2285 01:34:15,710 --> 01:34:12,840 comforted by and so he could explain 2286 01:34:18,520 --> 01:34:15,720 away and he also talks about how the 2287 01:34:22,850 --> 01:34:18,530 government took the most easily 2288 01:34:25,310 --> 01:34:22,860 explainable cases debunked them and then 2289 01:34:27,800 --> 01:34:25,320 presented it to the media but the 2290 01:34:30,200 --> 01:34:27,810 completely unexplainable ones were left 2291 01:34:34,190 --> 01:34:30,210 untouched and kind of left out of the 2292 01:34:36,020 --> 01:34:34,200 the discussions research and it's I 2293 01:34:39,830 --> 01:34:36,030 think you would find it really worth 2294 01:34:43,850 --> 01:34:39,840 looking into his his story of how the 2295 01:34:46,700 --> 01:34:43,860 government it is he still alive no he 2296 01:34:58,190 --> 01:34:46,710 died he died at sea he was an astronomer 2297 01:35:00,050 --> 01:34:58,200 and physicist and very very well he yeah 2298 01:35:02,890 --> 01:35:00,060 when he was talking about him like you 2299 01:35:05,540 --> 01:35:02,900 know you started out essentially 2300 01:35:07,460 --> 01:35:05,550 debunking these things you know a lot of 2301 01:35:08,990 --> 01:35:07,470 people who do get into strange beliefs 2302 01:35:10,610 --> 01:35:09,000 do actually say they start out trying to 2303 01:35:12,250 --> 01:35:10,620 debunk things obviously different with 2304 01:35:16,040 --> 01:35:12,260 his case because he has all this access 2305 01:35:18,560 --> 01:35:16,050 to information but there were these 2306 01:35:20,360 --> 01:35:18,570 cases that were difficult to explain and 2307 01:35:23,810 --> 01:35:20,370 the government didn't present those to 2308 01:35:25,460 --> 01:35:23,820 people but did he then present those 2309 01:35:28,310 --> 01:35:25,470 in his book and explained what he 2310 01:35:30,350 --> 01:35:28,320 actually were not what 2311 01:35:33,110 --> 01:35:30,360 well no but what's what the evidence was 2312 01:35:36,620 --> 01:35:33,120 and it was it actually photos of craft 2313 01:35:38,990 --> 01:35:36,630 or was it like yes guy yes everything 2314 01:35:42,350 --> 01:35:39,000 forward he came out with what he had 2315 01:35:48,170 --> 01:35:42,360 left of data notes pictures even 2316 01:35:50,690 --> 01:35:48,180 videotapes basically just everything he 2317 01:35:51,020 --> 01:35:50,700 had that he had accumulated Prue project 2318 01:35:53,720 --> 01:35:51,030 Bluebook 2319 01:35:54,980 --> 01:35:53,730 well I probably should read him like for 2320 01:35:57,530 --> 01:35:54,990 the reasons we were just discussing that 2321 01:35:59,960 --> 01:35:57,540 it would be common ground for the the 2322 01:36:03,710 --> 01:35:59,970 UFO people okay I talked to a lot of UFO 2323 01:36:06,320 --> 01:36:03,720 people and they often bring up that um 2324 01:36:08,000 --> 01:36:06,330 him Hynek and does he have more than one 2325 01:36:11,570 --> 01:36:08,010 Booker's I just have one famous bill 2326 01:36:14,540 --> 01:36:11,580 that he's worth probably 10 bucks okay 2327 01:36:19,280 --> 01:36:14,550 he also met with a scientist in France 2328 01:36:22,130 --> 01:36:19,290 called la who was the French government 2329 01:36:25,010 --> 01:36:22,140 and they they Co Co wrote some book 2330 01:36:28,310 --> 01:36:25,020 books together and and had conversations 2331 01:36:30,260 --> 01:36:28,320 about the phenomenon and what they they 2332 01:36:33,080 --> 01:36:30,270 theorized and make made a bunch of 2333 01:36:36,020 --> 01:36:33,090 hypotheses out from the data and it's 2334 01:36:38,480 --> 01:36:36,030 really interesting to to dig into it and 2335 01:36:40,040 --> 01:36:38,490 they're not giving it ultimate terms 2336 01:36:42,440 --> 01:36:40,050 they're not saying it's this or that 2337 01:36:45,080 --> 01:36:42,450 it's just what is going on and what is 2338 01:36:47,270 --> 01:36:45,090 where's the evidence pointing that they 2339 01:36:50,150 --> 01:36:47,280 had a bit I think if I do continue with 2340 01:36:54,110 --> 01:36:50,160 the UFO stuff and I do have experiments 2341 01:36:55,390 --> 01:36:54,120 to do with my I I probably should do a 2342 01:36:58,700 --> 01:36:55,400 little bit more foundational research 2343 01:37:01,070 --> 01:36:58,710 well where we're coming up for heading 2344 01:37:02,450 --> 01:37:01,080 towards two hours again here other is 2345 01:37:03,740 --> 01:37:02,460 there anything else that we that you 2346 01:37:06,650 --> 01:37:03,750 wanted to talk about that we haven't 2347 01:37:17,150 --> 01:37:06,660 touched on yet maybe next time I got a 2348 01:37:20,450 --> 01:37:17,160 bunch of stuff in your the talking and 2349 01:37:23,090 --> 01:37:20,460 it's really it's refreshing to talk to 2350 01:37:25,340 --> 01:37:23,100 you and it's really your I think there 2351 01:37:29,000 --> 01:37:25,350 were very good good and important 2352 01:37:31,850 --> 01:37:29,010 balance and I it's really enjoyable to 2353 01:37:33,980 --> 01:37:31,860 see your development in it as well in 2354 01:37:35,690 --> 01:37:33,990 different ways and I think that's very a 2355 01:37:37,580 --> 01:37:35,700 lot of it's a lot of fun 2356 01:37:40,129 --> 01:37:37,590 you know yeah thank you and 2357 01:37:42,560 --> 01:37:40,139 I really enjoy your perspective on 2358 01:37:43,939 --> 01:37:42,570 things as well and I think it's you know 2359 01:37:46,040 --> 01:37:43,949 it's we could have had like you say we 2360 01:37:48,080 --> 01:37:46,050 could have discussions like this to move 2361 01:37:51,979 --> 01:37:48,090 forward like common ground between the 2362 01:37:56,270 --> 01:37:51,989 two not not sides but perhaps like camps 2363 01:37:58,430 --> 01:37:56,280 in these these discussions so we can we 2364 01:38:01,070 --> 01:37:58,440 can all move forward and maybe we can 2365 01:38:03,979 --> 01:38:01,080 get back together again in a month or so 2366 01:38:06,879 --> 01:38:03,989 and we can we can talk more about about 2367 01:38:09,379 --> 01:38:06,889 these topics and about my book 2368 01:38:13,189 --> 01:38:09,389 definitely give me a few months all 2369 01:38:15,330 --> 01:38:13,199 right all right well thanks a lot soon
