1 00:00:00,060 --> 00:00:00,780 foreign 2 00:00:07,680 --> 00:00:14,580 this is need to know real talk about the\h reality of unidentified aerial phenomenon\h\h 3 00:00:15,960 --> 00:00:21,000 from Australia Ross Colt\h art from the U.S Bryce zabel 4 00:00:23,760 --> 00:00:31,020 hello and welcome to this special edition of\h need to know we're literally doing this within\h\h 5 00:00:31,020 --> 00:00:40,500 24 hours of the release to Congress of the UAP\h the unidentified anomalous phenomena report to\h\h 6 00:00:40,500 --> 00:00:47,220 Congress which was tabled in the Congress finally\h I think either on the evening of Friday the\h\h 7 00:00:47,220 --> 00:00:51,960 12th or the morning of Friday the 13th I can't\h figure it out where I am in Australia but it's\h\h 8 00:00:51,960 --> 00:00:59,460 an auspicious moment because this is the the one\h of the very first reports from the UAP task forces\h\h 9 00:00:59,460 --> 00:01:09,240 known as Arrow aaro the all domain anomalous oh\h Christ Bryce help me here I've forgotten I keep on\h\h 10 00:01:09,240 --> 00:01:17,820 forgetting what is it is the all domain anomalous\h resolution anomaly resolution office all domain\h\h 11 00:01:17,820 --> 00:01:24,960 anomaly resolution such a simple acronym it's\h fantastic I just wanted Point as you were saying\h\h 12 00:01:24,960 --> 00:01:31,560 that though let's let's be clear this thing was\h mandated by law to be delivered on October 31st\h\h 13 00:01:31,560 --> 00:01:35,340 and so we thought when it was late well it'll be\h a few days they'll come up with it it actually\h\h 14 00:01:35,340 --> 00:01:41,280 took them 73 days um to come up with this and\h by the way what a difference a week makes Ross\h\h 15 00:01:41,280 --> 00:01:46,380 we were on here last week apologizing that we've\h been off for too long because we were on holiday\h\h 16 00:01:46,380 --> 00:01:53,880 and and since we've been back now we're we're\h on within less than a week but this thing man uh\h\h 17 00:01:54,420 --> 00:02:01,080 okay I wanted more I didn't get what I wanted\h exactly but as we break this down I think there\h\h 18 00:02:01,080 --> 00:02:06,000 are some things that are probably worth mentioning\h from it now listen I thought quite an auspicious\h\h 19 00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:11,100 time to start way to start this would be to\h talk about the fact that it's Friday the 13th in\h\h 20 00:02:11,100 --> 00:02:19,080 America isn't it yes wow do you know the origins\h of Friday the 13th I I don't but be and you're\h\h 21 00:02:19,080 --> 00:02:24,300 going to tell us but one quick question do they\h have it do you guys in Australia have a Friday the\h\h 22 00:02:24,300 --> 00:02:29,640 13th kind of yeah we do yeah it's recognized all\h over the world and the reason people talk about\h\h 23 00:02:29,640 --> 00:02:38,820 Friday the 13th being a day of bad luck is because\h on this day in 1307 Pope Clement and King Philip\h\h 24 00:02:38,820 --> 00:02:44,580 had the leader of the Knights Templar arrested\h and along with other Knights burned at the stake\h\h 25 00:02:45,120 --> 00:02:52,320 and as he was dying the lead Knight cursed them\h from the stake and both were dead within a year\h\h 26 00:02:52,320 --> 00:02:59,160 hence the origins of Friday the 13th being a day\h of bad luck and it reminded me it's a good way of\h\h 27 00:02:59,160 --> 00:03:05,880 kicking off this episode it reminded me of the\h notorious debunker the skeptic Philip class you\h\h 28 00:03:05,880 --> 00:03:13,860 know his UFO curse this is what he said after his\h death he cursed ufologists and he said no matter\h\h 29 00:03:13,860 --> 00:03:20,760 how long you live you will never know any more\h about UFOs than you know today you will never\h\h 30 00:03:20,760 --> 00:03:27,720 know any more about what UFOs really are or where\h they come from you will never know any more about\h\h 31 00:03:27,720 --> 00:03:35,340 what the US government really knows about UFOs\h than you know today as you lie on your own death\h\h 32 00:03:35,340 --> 00:03:45,060 bid you will be as mystified about UFOs as you\h are today and you will remember this curse said\h\h 33 00:03:45,060 --> 00:03:51,720 the world class that is a great rendition of what\h Philip Glass said I didn't like it when he said it\h\h 34 00:03:51,720 --> 00:03:57,900 I don't like to hear it anymore uh now because the\h truth of the matter is there are a lot of people\h\h 35 00:03:57,900 --> 00:04:02,640 that know a lot about this topic now uh they just\h haven't shared their work over the years and I\h\h 36 00:04:02,640 --> 00:04:07,980 think that part of the concern here was were\h we actually going to get a report that began\h\h 37 00:04:07,980 --> 00:04:13,080 to peel back the onion a little bit and lets the\h government show some of the work it's been going\h\h 38 00:04:13,080 --> 00:04:19,140 through for the past 80 years I don't think this\h particularly does it but if I could just sort of\h\h 39 00:04:19,140 --> 00:04:25,440 do the hits runs and errors for a moment um it\h is a I forget how many pages I guess with the 11\h\h 40 00:04:25,440 --> 00:04:34,080 pages with the appendix but there apparently have\h been 366 new cases since that preliminary report\h\h 41 00:04:34,080 --> 00:04:43,680 that had come out uh in in June of 2021 of those\h 366 as they break it down 26 were what they would\h\h 42 00:04:43,680 --> 00:04:53,520 call drones 100 163 were balloons or balloon-like\h entities I guess six were clutter in the air like\h\h 43 00:04:53,520 --> 00:04:59,580 birds or weather or debris and you know what\h that sounds a little depressing 47 percent\h\h 44 00:05:00,360 --> 00:05:05,040 47 percent of the new cases were the so-called un\h\h 45 00:05:06,180 --> 00:05:12,480 characterized and unaffiliated cases which\h we'll have to say are unknown and that means\h\h 46 00:05:12,480 --> 00:05:18,300 half the cases that are breaking that they're\h finding with their sensors and the radar and\h\h 47 00:05:18,300 --> 00:05:24,120 all of these things that we have to go look for\h these things 47 percent of them half of them are\h\h 48 00:05:24,120 --> 00:05:30,300 unidentified so that is significant and I think\h what's also significant before we even get into\h\h 49 00:05:30,300 --> 00:05:38,160 the nitty-gritty of this report is the mere fact\h that the Congress is receiving reports on uaps\h\h 50 00:05:38,160 --> 00:05:44,520 unidentified and anomalous phenomena the mere fact\h that this is a public document that there are now\h\h 51 00:05:44,520 --> 00:05:53,040 reports on CNN the New York Times Politico CBS IBC\h and BC the fact that this is being engaged with by\h\h 52 00:05:53,040 --> 00:05:59,580 mainstream media and even being talked about is a\h light year Paradigm leap it's very very important\h\h 53 00:05:59,580 --> 00:06:06,120 and I I know I'm guilty of it myself the one\h thing that we often feel is a sense of despondency\h\h 54 00:06:06,120 --> 00:06:12,240 knowing what we believe we know about what's\h really going on inside the US government a\h\h 55 00:06:12,240 --> 00:06:17,400 sense of despondency often hits a lot of us that\h you know really not much is happening you know\h\h 56 00:06:17,400 --> 00:06:22,380 it's all going to be put back in the Box uh\h whatever disclosure will happen is going to\h\h 57 00:06:22,380 --> 00:06:28,320 be underwhelming but really this is significant\h we should stop and take stock of the faculture\h\h 58 00:06:28,320 --> 00:06:35,760 that that the mere fact that there is a public\h document tabled in the Congress that is actually\h\h 59 00:06:35,760 --> 00:06:43,500 investigating this issue tabulating Europe\h UAP reports UFO reports and actually taking\h\h 60 00:06:43,500 --> 00:06:51,180 the issue seriously this is a big moment that this\h is important and frankly okay it's a dog turd of\h\h 61 00:06:51,180 --> 00:06:55,920 a report frankly I think it was written it was\h written in the It Was Written in the technical\h\h 62 00:06:55,920 --> 00:07:04,620 Congress report it was I I literally think whoever\h wrote this report basically wrote it on his lap\h\h 63 00:07:04,620 --> 00:07:09,540 sitting in the loo in Congress before he bolted\h into the intelligence committee you know it's it\h\h 64 00:07:09,540 --> 00:07:15,360 really is it could have been written on the on the\h world lie sitting on the steps of the Congress uh\h\h 65 00:07:15,360 --> 00:07:20,160 before you bolted in well the office as you've\h pointed out in some of our previous shows has\h\h 66 00:07:20,160 --> 00:07:25,680 not been well staffed and is Staffing up even\h as we speak you know the other thing is I agree\h\h 67 00:07:25,680 --> 00:07:30,600 with you there's some media things we should talk\h about let's table those for a moment and focus on\h\h 68 00:07:30,600 --> 00:07:37,140 explaining what the report is or says or whatever\h and then talk about how it was covered but\h\h 69 00:07:37,140 --> 00:07:43,500 okay yeah I guess uh there are there's an argument\h to be made for the dog turd theory of this report\h\h 70 00:07:43,500 --> 00:07:50,580 the truth is it is a little bit like uh paint\h drying it is not exciting given what the topic\h\h 71 00:07:50,580 --> 00:07:55,800 is it ought to be a lot more exciting I found a\h couple of uh things as I read it the the first\h\h 72 00:07:55,800 --> 00:08:02,820 thing was that by reducing it only to the numbers\h and throwing in a whole lot of bureaucratic kind\h\h 73 00:08:02,820 --> 00:08:09,300 of uh language in in terms of their descriptions\h it does make it a lot more boring read you have to\h\h 74 00:08:09,300 --> 00:08:13,920 really go in and pull out things to get excited\h about one of the things I thought for future\h\h 75 00:08:13,920 --> 00:08:21,780 reports or maybe they didn't do it for a reason\h but if you're going to say that uh 171 new cases\h\h 76 00:08:21,780 --> 00:08:28,320 that are unidentified have occurred since the last\h report can't we get a little taste of what some of\h\h 77 00:08:28,320 --> 00:08:34,200 those were why not tell us some of the examples\h why not lay that out because I guarantee I have\h\h 78 00:08:34,200 --> 00:08:39,420 a lot of friends who if I start talking about a\h report uh they're like well okay whatever you know\h\h 79 00:08:39,420 --> 00:08:43,680 and and if I give them some numbers then that's\h interesting maybe you got something there but\h\h 80 00:08:43,680 --> 00:08:49,620 if you start telling people the actual cases they\h start to freak out because these are unusual cases\h\h 81 00:08:50,400 --> 00:08:55,800 I agree I mean there's no explanation here of the\h methodology and and that's important particularly\h\h 82 00:08:55,800 --> 00:09:04,560 with these 171 unexplained sightings quote some of\h which appear to have demonstrated unusual flight\h\h 83 00:09:04,560 --> 00:09:11,280 characteristics or performance capabilities it's\h very very important because in the methodology\h\h 84 00:09:11,280 --> 00:09:16,380 I'm sure there's a methodology or at least I\h hope there is a methodology that the UAP task\h\h 85 00:09:16,380 --> 00:09:21,060 force is using there's some good people on that\h task force there's some very dedicated people\h\h 86 00:09:21,060 --> 00:09:27,120 who are genuinely trying to get to the answers\h and the thing that for example really irritated\h\h 87 00:09:27,120 --> 00:09:37,440 me is that 163 of the investigated sightings\h were labeled balloons or balloon-like entities\h\h 88 00:09:39,060 --> 00:09:46,740 I mean what does it belong empathy okay first of\h all balloons have been part of the ufology for\h\h 89 00:09:46,740 --> 00:09:54,240 years going back uh really to the the Roswell case\h where uh first it was a flying disc and then the\h\h 90 00:09:54,240 --> 00:09:59,520 government said no it's a it's a weather balloon\h so weather balloons balloons uh are certainly\h\h 91 00:09:59,520 --> 00:10:06,180 loaded words but another loaded word is entity\h what a weird choice of of a way to describe it\h\h 92 00:10:06,180 --> 00:10:13,560 balloon-like entities when I think of it yeah what\h that tells me Bryce is they don't know what it is\h\h 93 00:10:14,100 --> 00:10:20,280 and unless they explain unless they explain their\h methodology I mean to me bloom-like entities is\h\h 94 00:10:20,280 --> 00:10:25,200 a bit like saying oh it's a it's a something\h something you know it's kind of like a loony\h\h 95 00:10:25,200 --> 00:10:30,000 sort of thingy Bobby but that I've explained it\h now so go away and leave me alone and let me get\h\h 96 00:10:30,000 --> 00:10:35,340 on with doing what I've been doing for the last\h 70 years which is covering this issue up well I\h\h 97 00:10:35,340 --> 00:10:42,540 really think we have to call it I mean I'm not\h questioning the motives of the individuals that\h\h 98 00:10:42,540 --> 00:10:48,720 run the aaro because I'm I'm hearing good things\h about them I'm hearing that they are dedicated\h\h 99 00:10:48,720 --> 00:10:54,780 people who are doing good work but you can't\h do anything about the Dead Hand of the Pentagon\h\h 100 00:10:54,780 --> 00:11:01,500 PR machine that wants to dampen this down and\h that's my concern and Chris Mellon the the former\h\h 101 00:11:01,500 --> 00:11:07,440 um Deputy assistant um secretary of defense for\h intelligence and security he he made this comment\h\h 102 00:11:07,440 --> 00:11:13,500 about the report he said the government has again\h demonstrated its unique and uncanny ability to\h\h 103 00:11:13,500 --> 00:11:20,880 transform an inherently fascinating topic into\h vexing bureaucratic jargon if the intent was to\h\h 104 00:11:20,880 --> 00:11:28,260 make the reporters Anodyne unremarkable and boring\h as possible the authors did exceptionally well I\h\h 105 00:11:28,260 --> 00:11:34,800 say this partly in jest but in truth it appears\h efforts were made to minimize the impact of the\h\h 106 00:11:34,800 --> 00:11:41,340 data for example there's an incredibly stark\h contrast between the stunning testimony of UAP\h\h 107 00:11:41,340 --> 00:11:49,020 capabilities reported by Navy Pilots for example\h something not from this earth and the flaccid\h\h 108 00:11:49,020 --> 00:11:57,360 lovely language flaccid UAP report language which\h by contrast asserts some of these uncharacterized\h\h 109 00:11:57,360 --> 00:12:02,700 UAP appear to have demonstrated unusual flight\h characteristics or performance capabilities and\h\h 110 00:12:02,700 --> 00:12:08,820 require further analysis pretty boring stuff it's\h like one of those AI computer voices reading a\h\h 111 00:12:08,820 --> 00:12:15,960 book or something nicely done listen I talked to\h Chris Mellon today before we went on and uh you\h\h 112 00:12:15,960 --> 00:12:23,280 know that is pretty much his point of view however\h I I also sense that he reads the thing as some of\h\h 113 00:12:23,280 --> 00:12:28,200 some a lot of people do and say there's some\h buried things that are and I want to reference\h\h 114 00:12:28,200 --> 00:12:32,520 what you had talked about earlier where you said\h well it is kind of interesting that they're even\h\h 115 00:12:32,520 --> 00:12:36,720 doing this when you get to the summary of this\h thing and we'll go back into the details but at\h\h 116 00:12:36,720 --> 00:12:42,060 the summary actually bolds three different things\h that that they're talking about which actually are\h\h 117 00:12:42,060 --> 00:12:48,540 the change that you were talking about the first\h was UAP continue to represent a hazard to flight\h\h 118 00:12:48,540 --> 00:12:55,500 safety and pose a possible adversary collection\h threat well that's that's pretty stunning for the\h\h 119 00:12:55,500 --> 00:12:59,460 government to say okay we they're still not\h saying what it is but they're saying it's a\h\h 120 00:12:59,460 --> 00:13:04,860 hazard of flight safety that's interesting then\h the second was Arrow has been established as\h\h 121 00:13:04,860 --> 00:13:10,680 the dod focal point for UAP now we are getting to\h the place where in that simple sentence there are\h\h 122 00:13:10,680 --> 00:13:16,980 three things people could go what is that arrow\h is the all domain anomaly resolution office which\h\h 123 00:13:16,980 --> 00:13:25,020 at this point is sort of the uh Wellhead if you\h will of all things euphological in the government\h\h 124 00:13:25,020 --> 00:13:31,380 or at least they say DOD of course Department\h of Defense UAP used to be unidentified aerial\h\h 125 00:13:31,380 --> 00:13:36,420 phenomena now they're calling it unidentified\h anomalous phenomena okay that was number two\h\h 126 00:13:36,420 --> 00:13:42,420 number three coordinated efforts between the\h dod the IC that's the intelligence community and\h\h 127 00:13:42,420 --> 00:13:48,060 other government agencies to collect and Report\h UAP events have resulted in increased data sets\h\h 128 00:13:48,060 --> 00:13:54,360 spanning multiple security domains so let me break\h that down into English first they're saying these\h\h 129 00:13:54,360 --> 00:14:01,320 things could potentially be scary and dangerous\h one two um we've got a place where we're trying\h\h 130 00:14:01,320 --> 00:14:07,440 to get everybody to talk to at the same time so\h that we can draw some conclusions and three we are\h\h 131 00:14:07,440 --> 00:14:12,840 coordinating efforts uh between all these people\h so that we can get more data you know we can put\h\h 132 00:14:12,840 --> 00:14:18,720 more data in so that can we get more conclusions\h out if all of that is true you know that's nice I\h\h 133 00:14:18,720 --> 00:14:24,300 don't know that it's an update because we've sort\h of known that's been happening but again it's not\h\h 134 00:14:24,300 --> 00:14:29,400 the worst news in the world it's it's good to see\h the government instead of saying nothing to see\h\h 135 00:14:29,400 --> 00:14:36,840 here which they've done for since like 1969. it's\h it's nice to see them admitting there is indeed\h\h 136 00:14:36,840 --> 00:14:41,760 something to see there and it's a threat and\h it's a flight safety threat and it's a national\h\h 137 00:14:41,760 --> 00:14:46,440 security threaten there's a couple of things that\h are buried in here and I think you you also have\h\h 138 00:14:46,440 --> 00:14:51,360 to add the weights of Granny New York Times to\h this because they've had background briefings from\h\h 139 00:14:51,360 --> 00:14:56,340 Ron Moultrie for that special breast proof press\h briefing that happened back late late last year\h\h 140 00:14:56,940 --> 00:15:03,300 the New York Times and indeed this report make\h much of the fact that a lot of the prosaically\h\h 141 00:15:03,300 --> 00:15:10,500 explained sightings by after investigation have\h come out to be Chinese drones now that's really\h\h 142 00:15:10,500 --> 00:15:14,880 interesting and I'm waiting to see what our\h friend and colleague Jeremy corbill comes\h\h 143 00:15:14,880 --> 00:15:20,880 up with in response to that because whatever the\h hell those drones are yes I I do think that some\h\h 144 00:15:20,880 --> 00:15:26,460 of the objects that were seen by the U.S Navy\h off the California coast especially in that uh\h\h 145 00:15:26,460 --> 00:15:35,460 2018-2019 period that Jeremy featured in some\h of his uh exposes they they are clearly drone\h\h 146 00:15:35,460 --> 00:15:43,080 objects you can see them in the photographs but\h there are clear bits of evidence that um have come\h\h 147 00:15:43,080 --> 00:15:48,180 up not just from Jeremy but from other sources\h in those sightings which suggests that whatever\h\h 148 00:15:48,180 --> 00:15:57,000 these drones were or are they're doing things that\h just aren't normal drones they're they're moving\h\h 149 00:15:57,000 --> 00:16:02,820 doing Maneuvers that are quite extraordinary\h they're operating far out in the ocean with\h\h 150 00:16:02,820 --> 00:16:09,300 no apparent base from whence they come whatever\h the hell this is the implications of this report\h\h 151 00:16:09,300 --> 00:16:17,580 in terms of just simple analog human technology\h are awesome because it does mean that what this\h\h 152 00:16:17,580 --> 00:16:25,680 uaap report has exposed is that the Pentagon is\h leading us to the line that there is some kind\h\h 153 00:16:25,680 --> 00:16:34,800 of unknown Chinese technology which is capable of\h buzzing U.S Navy vessels with impunity and that in\h\h 154 00:16:34,800 --> 00:16:41,400 and of itself is an enormous national security\h threat that we now only know about because of\h\h 155 00:16:41,400 --> 00:16:50,400 this UAP report investigation and so in that alone\h Arrow has proved its worth and and this is where\h\h 156 00:16:50,400 --> 00:16:56,940 even though we gave them an F last week I give\h them a pass mark on doing things that are crazy\h\h 157 00:16:56,940 --> 00:17:03,840 editorable in in terms of alerting the Pentagon\h to threats that think frankly I think was sitting\h\h 158 00:17:03,840 --> 00:17:09,060 under the radar I'm going to so stipulate\h everything you just said and still tell you\h\h 159 00:17:09,060 --> 00:17:15,840 why I'm I'm angry I'm angry about the context we\h cannot keep laying okay there are Chinese drones\h\h 160 00:17:15,840 --> 00:17:23,280 uh they're an adversary uh they're messing around\h in our protected airspace quite probably it's good\h\h 161 00:17:23,280 --> 00:17:29,760 that we know that but that doesn't explain the\h phenomena because folks there were no Chinese\h\h 162 00:17:29,760 --> 00:17:37,740 drones in 1947 and in the 1950s and if there were\h drones and there weren't they weren't doing these\h\h 163 00:17:37,740 --> 00:17:44,700 improbable and impossible Maneuvers out there\h so again with the report has as its essential\h\h 164 00:17:44,700 --> 00:17:52,200 flaw that hopefully will be fixed going forward\h is a sense of context you know how would Chinese\h\h 165 00:17:52,200 --> 00:18:01,500 drones explain the thousands and thousands of\h cases in the 40s 50s 60s 70s 80s 90s odds what\h\h 166 00:18:01,500 --> 00:18:07,500 about all those cases what about them so I will\h just say okay that's me that's my rant for the\h\h 167 00:18:07,500 --> 00:18:12,420 day here's here's the lighter moment uh our you\h were talking about our friend uh here's another\h\h 168 00:18:12,420 --> 00:18:18,060 friend of ours Gary Nolan and I I thought I saw\h his tweet and I thought it was really funny and at\h\h 169 00:18:18,060 --> 00:18:24,480 the same time incredibly insightful his tweet was\h chat GPT prompt and of course he's talking about\h\h 170 00:18:24,480 --> 00:18:29,820 artificial intelligence an AI that can write\h things in any way this is what the prompt was\h\h 171 00:18:30,540 --> 00:18:38,280 write a 2022 UAP Report with as few specifics\h as you can and hide the anomalous findings in\h\h 172 00:18:38,280 --> 00:18:45,660 a paragraph as an obtuse reference deep in the\h output well that's kind of what it looks like to\h\h 173 00:18:45,660 --> 00:18:52,320 me I mean it almost has that to be honest with you\h Russ an AI would have written a livelier report\h\h 174 00:18:53,400 --> 00:18:57,240 I I completely agree with you I completely\h agree with you now listen one of the things\h\h 175 00:18:57,240 --> 00:19:02,160 last week that we were lamenting was that all\h of the politicians in Congress who'd previously\h\h 176 00:19:02,160 --> 00:19:08,280 espoused a great interest in uaps had suddenly\h gone quiet for the last six months and I would\h\h 177 00:19:08,280 --> 00:19:12,540 have put it on record that there's been some\h really interesting comments from a lot of the\h\h 178 00:19:12,540 --> 00:19:17,940 major players in the last day or so Mike Gallagher\h the the person who actually put the representative\h\h 179 00:19:17,940 --> 00:19:25,020 who put the UAP Clauses the the new Clauses into\h the National Defense authorization Act passed in\h\h 180 00:19:25,020 --> 00:19:32,700 December he put a statement down after the release\h of the UAP report he said the dni's most recent\h\h 181 00:19:32,700 --> 00:19:39,600 UAP report reinforces what we already know that\h we must figure out what our military aviators\h\h 182 00:19:39,600 --> 00:19:44,880 are observing in our airspace The Whistleblower\h protections and he's talking about these new laws\h\h 183 00:19:44,880 --> 00:19:50,340 that have been put into the defense authorization\h act recently passed into law are an essential step\h\h 184 00:19:50,340 --> 00:19:57,060 forward to solving this decades-long mystery and\h will ensure that those entrusted with defending\h\h 185 00:19:57,060 --> 00:20:02,640 America from potential threats have all the\h required information historical context and\h\h 186 00:20:02,640 --> 00:20:09,240 scientific resources to do so now that that's\h a very positive thing the mere fact that Mike\h\h 187 00:20:09,240 --> 00:20:16,200 Gallagher is still prepared to speak out publicly\h and espouse support for probing investigations\h\h 188 00:20:16,200 --> 00:20:25,020 into the UAP issue that really matters I also want\h to put on the record that Senator Mark Warner the\h\h 189 00:20:25,020 --> 00:20:31,920 Senate intelligence chair he's also said today's\h report reflects a step forward in understanding\h\h 190 00:20:31,920 --> 00:20:37,920 and addressing risks to aviators overall I'm\h encouraged to see an increase in UAP reporting\h\h 191 00:20:37,920 --> 00:20:43,620 a sign of decreased stigma among pilots who are\h aware of the Potential Threat that uaps can pose\h\h 192 00:20:43,620 --> 00:20:50,340 I'm proud to have passed language in the financial\h year 23 intelligence authorization act that will\h\h 193 00:20:50,340 --> 00:20:56,400 empower the all domain anomaly resolution\h office Arrow to rigorously investigate and\h\h 194 00:20:56,400 --> 00:21:01,860 bring resources to bear on this challenge I look\h forward to seeing continued cooperation between\h\h 195 00:21:01,860 --> 00:21:06,780 the Department of Defense the intelligence\h community and other key government Partners\h\h 196 00:21:06,780 --> 00:21:13,740 as we work to focus resources on UAP reports\h that remain uncharacterized and unattributed\h\h 197 00:21:14,280 --> 00:21:21,240 they've still got their teeth in the game Bryce\h they're not dropping this it sounds lovely uh\h\h 198 00:21:21,240 --> 00:21:27,420 and and I I take no exception with that I'm\h glad that that kind of dialogue is out there I\h\h 199 00:21:27,420 --> 00:21:32,520 just have a question and it's it's a hypothetical\h but it kind of goes to the essence of what we're\h\h 200 00:21:32,520 --> 00:21:37,140 we're living through with these reports of which\h we're supposed to get one every year from now on\h\h 201 00:21:37,980 --> 00:21:47,520 let's say that last month an Air Force pilot or\h or a Navy pilot going about their business had an\h\h 202 00:21:47,520 --> 00:21:54,720 up close encounter with some kind of anomalous\h craft and the craft clearly was not a Chinese\h\h 203 00:21:54,720 --> 00:22:02,820 drone it was huge it was uh doing incredible\h Maneuvers and in fact uh he got this pilot he\h\h 204 00:22:02,820 --> 00:22:08,940 or she got images of it that were crystal clear\h and in fact when you looked at those images you\h\h 205 00:22:08,940 --> 00:22:14,280 saw somebody inside this craft an occupant\h that certainly didn't look like a human being\h\h 206 00:22:15,780 --> 00:22:20,640 would it be in this report no\h it wouldn't be in this report so\h\h 207 00:22:21,540 --> 00:22:29,100 how do we ever get to the bottom of the more\h esoteric Parts if whenever we encounter them\h\h 208 00:22:29,100 --> 00:22:37,020 those are called classified there's not even a an\h attempt to describe that they exist they just go\h\h 209 00:22:37,020 --> 00:22:43,020 into the classified report the Congress looks\h at them how are the people to hear about the\h\h 210 00:22:43,020 --> 00:22:48,960 really good cases uh do we have to do all of this\h ourselves uh can we not count on the government\h\h 211 00:22:48,960 --> 00:22:55,260 with all its sensors and data to to help us out\h a little bit why why does it have to be this way\h\h 212 00:22:55,920 --> 00:23:02,940 brush I actually think what you're raising here\h is fundamentally important I think frankly I'm\h\h 213 00:23:02,940 --> 00:23:08,100 increasingly coming to the view that the\h naive idea that we're going to be spoon-fed\h\h 214 00:23:08,100 --> 00:23:15,000 some kind of disclosure on uaps by the political\h representatives of the US people in the Congress\h\h 215 00:23:15,000 --> 00:23:21,000 is utterly naive the idea that the intelligence\h community and the defense department is somehow\h\h 216 00:23:21,000 --> 00:23:27,120 going to fess up and admit that there's been a\h massive cover-up going back decades it ain't going\h\h 217 00:23:27,120 --> 00:23:33,780 to happen and more importantly even the National\h Defense authorization act and intelligence acts\h\h 218 00:23:33,780 --> 00:23:40,500 requirements for uaps that have now been passed\h into law all they're really mandating is that\h\h 219 00:23:40,500 --> 00:23:48,300 Congress be informed about secret programs that\h may or may not exist in relation to recovered\h\h 220 00:23:48,300 --> 00:23:54,360 technology UAP crashes which in and of itself is\h amazing I still every now and then I just pull out\h\h 221 00:23:54,360 --> 00:24:00,300 the I pull out the Congressional Record and look\h at the wording of the legislation that has been\h\h 222 00:24:00,300 --> 00:24:07,560 passed by the U.S Congress referring to recovered\h technology back engineered technology relating\h\h 223 00:24:07,560 --> 00:24:16,140 to uaps you have the the U.S Congress making\h specific written references in-laws to their\h\h 224 00:24:16,140 --> 00:24:22,080 suspicion that somewhere inside the intelligence\h or defense community of the United States there\h\h 225 00:24:22,080 --> 00:24:27,600 are people holding secrets that have been\h illegally and properly withheld from the public\h\h 226 00:24:28,200 --> 00:24:34,320 that's just extraordinary and I I think we do\h owe it to ourselves to remind ourselves of just\h\h 227 00:24:34,320 --> 00:24:40,260 how momentous that is but I do think the notion\h that this is somehow you're going to get some\h\h 228 00:24:40,260 --> 00:24:45,300 intelligence officials sitting down in a church\h committee style hearing and going oh yeah you\h\h 229 00:24:45,300 --> 00:24:52,020 know we've been lying to you guys for 30 40 years\h 70 years actually um you know I just don't think\h\h 230 00:24:52,020 --> 00:24:57,960 that's ever going to happen and I think frankly\h what is going to make a difference is a slow\h\h 231 00:24:57,960 --> 00:25:06,300 waking up by the public a slow realization that\h that you know at the same time we can move now I\h\h 232 00:25:06,300 --> 00:25:11,880 think from the very limited amount of detail that\h we've got in the UAP report to the media coverage\h\h 233 00:25:11,880 --> 00:25:17,760 thereof because let me just let me just throw one\h thought in I agree we should but I just to build\h\h 234 00:25:17,760 --> 00:25:22,740 on what you just said what we are really seeing\h and what you're calling for and what you're saying\h\h 235 00:25:22,740 --> 00:25:29,880 is the potential solution is uh if I can borrow\h from my Hollywood days here um you're thinking\h\h 236 00:25:29,880 --> 00:25:36,780 that we're living through a slow dissolve uh and\h and what a lot of people would prefer is we had a\h\h 237 00:25:36,780 --> 00:25:42,660 hard cut right I know I would I would like it\h if somebody could just say okay yeah uh just\h\h 238 00:25:42,660 --> 00:25:46,800 confirming this stuff is real we're not going to\h tell you all the details yet but yeah you're not\h\h 239 00:25:46,800 --> 00:25:50,940 crazy if you know about it but we're not getting\h that that would be the hard cut so instead we're\h\h 240 00:25:50,940 --> 00:25:55,200 getting the slow dissolve where we have to think\h about it and you know just so people are clear\h\h 241 00:25:55,200 --> 00:25:59,460 there are a lot of different things that work\h here there's this report that Ross and I have\h\h 242 00:25:59,460 --> 00:26:05,640 been talking about that was due on October 31st\h finally 73 days later has come out and it's not\h\h 243 00:26:05,640 --> 00:26:10,200 all that impressive it's not telling us a lot\h of things we don't know but as Ross and I were\h\h 244 00:26:10,200 --> 00:26:16,260 talking about last week there is also the National\h Defense authorization act that just passed uh this\h\h 245 00:26:16,260 --> 00:26:20,820 last month and was signed by the president and\h that one is the one that calls for the protections\h\h 246 00:26:20,820 --> 00:26:28,980 for whistleblowers Etc and we had quoted um excuse\h me Chris Mellon earlier this is what he was saying\h\h 247 00:26:28,980 --> 00:26:34,860 about the ndaa as opposed to the report he said\h the American public can reasonably expect to get\h\h 248 00:26:34,860 --> 00:26:39,900 some answers to questions that have been burning\h in the minds of millions of Americans for many\h\h 249 00:26:39,900 --> 00:26:45,540 years if nothing else this should either clear up\h something that's been a cloud hanging over the Air\h\h 250 00:26:45,540 --> 00:26:51,660 Force and Department of Defense for decades or\h it might lead in another Direction which could\h\h 251 00:26:51,660 --> 00:26:58,320 be truly incredible his words not mine and he ends\h with there's a lot at stake and I say Amen brother\h\h 252 00:26:58,320 --> 00:27:06,360 amen you know it's funny when I when I read Chris\h mellon's comments his key takeaways from the odni\h\h 253 00:27:06,360 --> 00:27:10,080 report I kind of read it and I thought oh yeah\h that's the sort of thing Chris would say and\h\h 254 00:27:10,080 --> 00:27:15,840 then I I made that journalist's mistake of not\h going to the final paragraph you should always\h\h 255 00:27:15,840 --> 00:27:21,300 read the last line first in any press release\h because it's where the politicians always hide\h\h 256 00:27:21,300 --> 00:27:27,060 stuff that they're a little bit sensitive about so\h I went to the very last line in Chris's statement\h\h 257 00:27:27,060 --> 00:27:35,220 and this is what he said having participated in\h debriefs of military aviators and radar operators\h\h 258 00:27:36,240 --> 00:27:43,320 um I believe this is a genuine possibility\h and he's talking in terms of um uh National\h\h 259 00:27:43,320 --> 00:27:52,680 Security benefiting indeed I've spoken to several\h credible people who claim the U.S has evidence\h\h 260 00:27:52,680 --> 00:28:01,020 of alien technology in its possession and he\h finishes with these are indeed exciting times\h\h 261 00:28:01,980 --> 00:28:08,160 no you know that's a hell of a clanger that is\h a hell of a clanger from a guy who used to be I\h\h 262 00:28:08,160 --> 00:28:14,160 think the number three person in the Pentagon\h cleared to know the secrets of the Pentagon\h\h 263 00:28:14,820 --> 00:28:20,820 it's pretty amazing that that somebody with\h that level of seniority is describing that\h\h 264 00:28:20,820 --> 00:28:27,120 he's spoken to Credible people who claim the\h U.S has evidence of alien technology in its\h\h 265 00:28:27,120 --> 00:28:34,020 possession because remember Ron Moultrie and Scott\h Bray when they gave evidence in May last year in\h\h 266 00:28:34,020 --> 00:28:43,200 2022 specifically denied categorically that the\h United States is in possession of any non-human\h\h 267 00:28:43,200 --> 00:28:50,700 technology so we now have a dichotomy you have\h a member of the defense intelligence industry\h\h 268 00:28:50,700 --> 00:28:56,640 uh the government government agency basically\h categorically denying that we have such things\h\h 269 00:28:56,640 --> 00:29:02,160 and you have Chris Miller asserting that he's\h spoken to Credible Witnesses who say they have\h\h 270 00:29:02,700 --> 00:29:08,640 we now have legislation in the Congress which\h is mandating that the intelligence and defense\h\h 271 00:29:08,640 --> 00:29:15,300 Community tell the truth about this it's really\h quite an extraordinary time to be honest with you\h\h 272 00:29:15,300 --> 00:29:22,560 I mean it's momentous what we're seeing here it is\h a momentous time and and you know um I just want\h\h 273 00:29:22,560 --> 00:29:28,080 to go back to that report for a moment we started\h out and of course I you came up with the famous\h\h 274 00:29:28,080 --> 00:29:36,360 dog what what do you call it dog food yeah a dog\h we had the famous dog turd analysis I forgive him\h\h 275 00:29:36,360 --> 00:29:42,060 I know a lot of you Americans get offended\h by our Australian tendency for vulgarity and\h\h 276 00:29:42,060 --> 00:29:46,860 swearing and I've we've been spanked a few times\h by people on our YouTube channel who say that I\h\h 277 00:29:46,860 --> 00:29:52,080 should just shut up and stop swearing so much but\h frankly it's the way Australians talk and I'm not\h\h 278 00:29:52,080 --> 00:29:59,400 going to apologize for the vernacular itself I\h love your vulgarity and swearing and that's why\h\h 279 00:29:59,400 --> 00:30:04,860 we're good friends so don't uh don't apologize to\h me I think it's uh it's what sets us apart what I\h\h 280 00:30:04,860 --> 00:30:10,140 was just going to say though is there's a danger\h here too I know a lot of people are turning on\h\h 281 00:30:10,140 --> 00:30:15,240 to this topic and you're you're starting to go\h wow there's really something going on here and\h\h 282 00:30:15,240 --> 00:30:22,140 I I just want to tell people that not just to\h watch podcasts our podcast somebody else's or\h\h 283 00:30:22,140 --> 00:30:28,620 read coverage of reports you know this report\h is available you can get it online you can read\h\h 284 00:30:28,620 --> 00:30:32,700 it with your own eyes and I guess I would\h say the same thing it's the equivalent of\h\h 285 00:30:33,480 --> 00:30:39,360 read for yourself if you can if you got the time\h take your your own knowledge up a level and it's\h\h 286 00:30:39,360 --> 00:30:46,200 like um you know a review of a book is interesting\h but the book itself is where you're really going\h\h 287 00:30:46,200 --> 00:30:52,440 to learn more so I just think all of us since\h we can't really count on the government to do\h\h 288 00:30:52,440 --> 00:30:58,140 all the work for us we've got to do it ourselves\h it is good that the government has set up some\h\h 289 00:30:58,140 --> 00:31:03,360 of these institutions and God bless the ndaa\h language and everything and I hope what that\h\h 290 00:31:03,360 --> 00:31:09,060 means is that as these institutions sort of have\h changed and are are being more open to pulling\h\h 291 00:31:09,060 --> 00:31:14,880 in data I hope people will now say okay let's\h push those institutions let's do our own work\h\h 292 00:31:14,880 --> 00:31:22,860 let's bring our own game up because eventually uh\h when that happens uh a report of this level won't\h\h 293 00:31:22,860 --> 00:31:28,260 cut it for the majority of people but instead\h and I'll transition to our media thing instead\h\h 294 00:31:29,040 --> 00:31:35,280 a lot of the articles that got written about it\h focused on those drones and the Chinese drone\h\h 295 00:31:35,280 --> 00:31:41,340 stuff and and made it sound like yeah nothing\h to see here so I I I feel like uh there's a\h\h 296 00:31:41,340 --> 00:31:45,840 lot of room for improvement it's not just in\h the government it's in the media and it's even\h\h 297 00:31:45,840 --> 00:31:50,160 in US those of us who are paying attention to\h it we can all bring the game up a little bit\h\h 298 00:31:51,000 --> 00:31:58,620 now around about I think it's datelined 7 53\h a.m eastern time in the U.S January Friday 13th\h\h 299 00:31:58,620 --> 00:32:04,920 the New York Times wrote this story by a general\h feature reporter called Remy tooman and the the\h\h 300 00:32:04,920 --> 00:32:12,840 headline it's probably backwards on YouTube is\h did aliens land on Earth in 1945 a defense Bill\h\h 301 00:32:12,840 --> 00:32:22,260 seeks answers and frankly it's a very even-handed\h straight report of the enormous implications of\h\h 302 00:32:22,260 --> 00:32:27,240 the issues we're talking about Bryce and\h I think it needs to be put on record that\h\h 303 00:32:27,240 --> 00:32:32,700 um The New York Times has finally since the great\h work done by Leslie Kane and Ralph Blumenthal\h\h 304 00:32:32,700 --> 00:32:39,300 it's it's actually reversed at a propensity\h to basically play down the phenomenon and\h\h 305 00:32:39,300 --> 00:32:45,300 acknowledge what we all know which is that there\h is now a reality here that cannot be ignored that\h\h 306 00:32:45,300 --> 00:32:51,300 in legislation in black and white the Congress\h is clearly suspicious that the United States\h\h 307 00:32:51,300 --> 00:32:57,780 defense and intelligence Community is hiding\h something it's lying and so you know this is\h\h 308 00:32:57,780 --> 00:33:05,880 this is the gray lady this is the New York Times\h basically saying we are reporting a valid story\h\h 309 00:33:05,880 --> 00:33:13,380 that Congress now wants answers that's why this\h whole year is going to be very very interesting\h\h 310 00:33:13,380 --> 00:33:21,540 because there are reporting requirements on the\h aaro the pentagon's UAP investigation office and\h\h 311 00:33:21,540 --> 00:33:27,480 they are going to have to fess up if they are\h hiding something okay um Ross uh you know a lot\h\h 312 00:33:27,480 --> 00:33:31,860 of people who probably watch us think well these\h guys work it all out ahead of time they know who's\h\h 313 00:33:31,860 --> 00:33:36,540 going to say what and it's all scripted no because\h I'm going to disagree with you right now about\h\h 314 00:33:36,540 --> 00:33:45,360 that New York Times article I went ballistic over\h this thing I freaking hated it and here's why in\h\h 315 00:33:45,360 --> 00:33:53,880 the first few sentences in the uh the blurb they\h put under the photo and in the second paragraph\h\h 316 00:33:53,880 --> 00:34:00,000 of the article itself they call people who are\h interested in this topic that is you me the people\h\h 317 00:34:00,000 --> 00:34:06,120 who are listening if you're listening right now\h to this podcast I want you to know that the New\h\h 318 00:34:06,120 --> 00:34:15,960 York Times thinks you are a quote Flying Saucer\h fan or a conspiracy theorist or a UFO enthusiast\h\h 319 00:34:16,500 --> 00:34:24,540 it is so freaking insulting and it reminds me that\h George Carlin the famous uh comedian did an entire\h\h 320 00:34:24,540 --> 00:34:32,280 riff uh in his career on the UFO topic and among\h the things that he took them to tasks for was he\h\h 321 00:34:32,280 --> 00:34:36,720 was tired of being called the UFO buff like it\h wasn't something serious this New York Times\h\h 322 00:34:36,720 --> 00:34:43,020 article doesn't even mention the word UAP there\h it says Flying Saucer fans conspiracy theorists\h\h 323 00:34:43,020 --> 00:34:52,380 UFO enthusiasts and in addition to that did aliens\h land on Earth in 1945 blah blah blah they State as\h\h 324 00:34:52,380 --> 00:35:00,660 fact as fact that the Roswell object turned out to\h be a top secret U.S military balloon that is not a\h\h 325 00:35:00,660 --> 00:35:07,260 fact uh there's nothing factual about that that is\h one uh explanation that the government has offered\h\h 326 00:35:07,260 --> 00:35:14,160 out of four explanations over the years and\h obviously the writer of this article uh Remy tumla\h\h 327 00:35:14,160 --> 00:35:21,180 didn't know that she's new to the topic I guess\h didn't know that and they say again in that very\h\h 328 00:35:21,180 --> 00:35:27,960 first paragraph that Roswell you know was just a\h balloon so you were hearing about Crash wreckage\h\h 329 00:35:27,960 --> 00:35:33,300 and the New York Times is parroting that back\h now okay I said my last one can I can I just\h\h 330 00:35:33,300 --> 00:35:37,260 respond to what you just said then Bryce I mean\h I I actually do agree with you and in fact I was\h\h 331 00:35:37,260 --> 00:35:42,240 going to make some of the points you've just made\h myself what I want to add to what you've just said\h\h 332 00:35:42,240 --> 00:35:49,980 is that continuing the tradition of the apologia\h for the Pentagon PR people Julian Barnes the New\h\h 333 00:35:49,980 --> 00:35:55,380 York Times National Security reporter on the 12th\h of January on I think it was on the evening before\h\h 334 00:35:55,380 --> 00:36:04,740 this Remy tooman story ran he did his own report\h uh curtain raising the coming UAP report and he he\h\h 335 00:36:04,740 --> 00:36:09,660 said things like the failure to categorize many\h incidents has frustrated intelligence officials\h\h 336 00:36:09,660 --> 00:36:15,180 and fueled conspiracy theories but Pentagon\h officials say the income complete findings\h\h 337 00:36:15,180 --> 00:36:21,000 are a result of inadequate sensor collection not\h evidence of advanced technology or any sort of\h\h 338 00:36:21,000 --> 00:36:27,240 government cover-up he's doing his very best on\h behalf of the Pentagon to dampen down speculation\h\h 339 00:36:27,240 --> 00:36:33,120 and I'm really sorry I I think we have to call\h the New York Times ad on this the gray lady is\h\h 340 00:36:33,120 --> 00:36:39,060 being disingenuous he also said things like\h with the release of any government report on\h\h 341 00:36:39,060 --> 00:36:45,360 UFOs officials hope the information will quill\h speculation Around The Unexplained incidents\h\h 342 00:36:45,360 --> 00:36:52,440 but such hopes are inevitably dashed because\h incidents that cannot be categorized fuel new\h\h 343 00:36:52,440 --> 00:37:00,480 rounds of speculation and conspiracy so the Deep\h implication of course is that all of this UFO UAP\h\h 344 00:37:00,480 --> 00:37:07,620 nonsense is just that a baseless conspiracy\h right who needs Pentagon PR when you've got\h\h 345 00:37:07,620 --> 00:37:15,120 Julian Barnes of the New York Times to do the lick\h spittle work of the intelligence Community yeah I\h\h 346 00:37:15,120 --> 00:37:22,500 mean what he conceded was in the UAP report those\h unexplained incidents here then goes on to Dan\h\h 347 00:37:22,500 --> 00:37:29,460 play them as wacky speculation essentially\h by us tin foil hat Nutters he says a portion\h\h 348 00:37:29,460 --> 00:37:34,980 of those unexplained incidents that demonstrate\h unusual flight characteristics but what they will\h\h 349 00:37:34,980 --> 00:37:40,860 get further study according to the report but the\h report doesn't outline he says how many incidents\h\h 350 00:37:40,860 --> 00:37:47,400 fall under that category and a mission likely\h to stoke further speculation by people who have\h\h 351 00:37:47,400 --> 00:37:54,000 embraced explanations such as other worldly\h visitors or Advanced unknown technology by\h\h 352 00:37:54,000 --> 00:38:00,780 adversarial Powers the whole thing is a dead hand\h and this is what the gray lady does all the time\h\h 353 00:38:00,780 --> 00:38:06,480 the New York Times you know it's allowed Leslie\h Kane and Ralph Blumenthal because it was a very\h\h 354 00:38:06,480 --> 00:38:13,020 legitimate series of stories to report the fact\h that the Pentagon was secretly investigating UFOs\h\h 355 00:38:13,020 --> 00:38:21,960 uaps but ever since then ever since 2017 under the\h Dead Hand influence of the Pentagon the public has\h\h 356 00:38:21,960 --> 00:38:28,980 been told in the Remy tooman article and also in\h the Julian Barnes article and also in the Holman\h\h 357 00:38:28,980 --> 00:38:35,040 Jenkins article in the Wall Street Journal\h there's been this very clear directorial line\h\h 358 00:38:35,040 --> 00:38:42,000 where National Security correspondence for the two\h major newspapers in Washington they made it's made\h\h 359 00:38:42,000 --> 00:38:46,140 very very clear to them I've been on the receiving\h end of these client of briefings if you don't toe\h\h 360 00:38:46,140 --> 00:38:52,200 the line if you don't parrot what you're told by\h your defense intelligence sources you don't get\h\h 361 00:38:52,200 --> 00:38:57,480 fed in the future so they're doing what they're\h being told they're essentially participating in\h\h 362 00:38:57,480 --> 00:39:03,000 a dampening down of this idea preparing the\h public for the idea that this is all just\h\h 363 00:39:03,000 --> 00:39:08,160 conspiracy nonsense don't you worry eventually\h we're going to be able to prosaically explain\h\h 364 00:39:08,160 --> 00:39:14,100 all of these objects these people who are making\h these wacky claims of other worldly visitors which\h\h 365 00:39:14,100 --> 00:39:18,540 were not by the way we're just saying it's a\h mystery these people who are suggesting that\h\h 366 00:39:18,540 --> 00:39:24,240 there's a real mystery there tell them to go away\h because ultimately it's just a wacky conspiracy\h\h 367 00:39:24,240 --> 00:39:31,560 trust us we're the military yeah well listen just\h to follow up on that and and what I was saying the\h\h 368 00:39:31,560 --> 00:39:38,340 article I put my glasses on and it's Remy tooman\h t-u-m-i-n who actually uh wrote this article and\h\h 369 00:39:38,340 --> 00:39:43,140 here's what's interesting about the article it's\h it's a bifurcated article the first part of it is\h\h 370 00:39:43,140 --> 00:39:47,220 insulting as I already told you the fair you\h know the the blurb that was written for the\h\h 371 00:39:47,220 --> 00:39:52,620 photo in those first two sentences or paragraphs\h but then it gets into a little more even-handed\h\h 372 00:39:52,620 --> 00:39:59,520 and and kind of interesting stuff and it made me\h wonder if this is an example of where uh possibly\h\h 373 00:39:59,520 --> 00:40:07,200 this uh author Remy tooman wrote a good article\h and then the editors uh put their own spin on\h\h 374 00:40:07,200 --> 00:40:12,300 top of it that does happen and uh frankly I may\h call her up and ask about that but I just want\h\h 375 00:40:12,300 --> 00:40:19,200 to say one thing to the New York Times editors\h reporters everybody else at the New York Times\h\h 376 00:40:20,940 --> 00:40:25,740 the sometimes we've had as many as a million\h people watching one of these things we have a\h\h 377 00:40:25,740 --> 00:40:30,960 lot of people that watch they leave comments\h hundreds sometimes thousands of comments on\h\h 378 00:40:30,960 --> 00:40:38,340 these these uh need to know uh podcasts and\h and videos that we've made those people and\h\h 379 00:40:38,340 --> 00:40:47,220 Ross and I are definitively not flying saucer\h fans we are not conspiracy theorists we are not\h\h 380 00:40:47,220 --> 00:40:55,980 UFO enthusiasts what we are are UAP researchers\h and investigators and there is a big difference\h\h 381 00:40:55,980 --> 00:41:02,820 and if you want your credibility to continue New\h York Times you have to figure out how to get away\h\h 382 00:41:02,820 --> 00:41:09,600 from those stereotypes that used to exist and you\h have to start treating the people who care about\h\h 383 00:41:09,600 --> 00:41:15,720 this issue with some more respect because if you\h don't respect us we are not going to respect you\h\h 384 00:41:17,160 --> 00:41:22,800 I think you're right I think as we've observed\h in previous podcast Bryce this is a lamentable\h\h 385 00:41:22,800 --> 00:41:29,340 failure by much of the mainstream media they've\h allowed themselves to be led by the nose and\h\h 386 00:41:29,340 --> 00:41:34,680 the thing that I find fascinating and I really do\h feel this very strongly is that citizen journalism\h\h 387 00:41:35,460 --> 00:41:41,280 citizen activism is going to be what eventually\h reveals this issue I don't think we're going to\h\h 388 00:41:41,280 --> 00:41:48,600 get to hear a lot of what's revealed in camera in\h confidence in Secure compartmentalized information\h\h 389 00:41:48,600 --> 00:41:53,820 facilities inside the Congress I don't think\h those Skiffs are going to release the information\h\h 390 00:41:53,820 --> 00:41:59,880 willingly I think it will eventually leak I\h think this stuff's going to start dribbling out\h\h 391 00:41:59,880 --> 00:42:06,000 you know I'm hearing stories that people have come\h forward to congressional committees with amazing\h\h 392 00:42:06,000 --> 00:42:13,380 allegations claims that should now be properly\h investigated by the aaro but it's incumbent on\h\h 393 00:42:13,380 --> 00:42:18,120 people watching this and listening this to\h tell the Congressional Representatives but\h\h 394 00:42:18,120 --> 00:42:23,460 more importantly maybe the mainstream media\h the Legacy Media that they need to wake up\h\h 395 00:42:23,460 --> 00:42:29,580 to the fact that they can belittle and Mock and\h ridicule this subject matter as much as they like\h\h 396 00:42:30,540 --> 00:42:36,540 but we're not going away well that's a good\h place for us to end Ross we're not going\h\h 397 00:42:36,540 --> 00:42:41,640 to go away we're going to keep doing this\h as regularly as we can and we're going to\h\h 398 00:42:41,640 --> 00:42:45,420 hold people accountable when people do good\h work we're going to praise it when they do\h\h
