00:01:31,109 --> 00:01:29,439 you know just because we needed somebody 33 00:01:33,510 --> 00:01:31,119 to fill the time but we had to have 34 00:01:35,350 --> 00:01:33,520 somebody who does it has the chops 35 00:01:37,910 --> 00:01:35,360 to get in here without a lot of 36 00:01:39,670 --> 00:01:37,920 preparation or advanced warning and come 37 00:01:41,749 --> 00:01:39,680 up to speed speaking of coming up to 38 00:01:44,710 --> 00:01:41,759 speed don't know if you've listened to 39 00:01:47,749 --> 00:01:44,720 the recent episodes but we get in 40 00:01:51,109 --> 00:01:47,759 trouble on the power cast chris and i 41 00:01:52,789 --> 00:01:51,119 when we mention politics oh you too huh 42 00:01:54,389 --> 00:01:52,799 oh it happens to you 43 00:01:56,389 --> 00:01:54,399 oh yes 44 00:01:58,310 --> 00:01:56,399 all right tell us some war stories here 45 00:02:01,270 --> 00:01:58,320 and i'll give you a few of ours 46 00:02:04,469 --> 00:02:01,280 well you know i do a a decidedly 47 00:02:06,310 --> 00:02:04,479 unapologetically uh centrist podcast 48 00:02:08,790 --> 00:02:06,320 every week called middle theory and the 49 00:02:10,550 --> 00:02:08,800 reason i do that is because on my 50 00:02:12,390 --> 00:02:10,560 primary podcast the grayling report 51 00:02:14,150 --> 00:02:12,400 which i've been doing gosh for five or 52 00:02:15,990 --> 00:02:14,160 six maybe seven years now 53 00:02:17,430 --> 00:02:16,000 if i ever would bring up politics we did 54 00:02:19,990 --> 00:02:17,440 a whole episode for instance back when 55 00:02:21,350 --> 00:02:20,000 the benghazi scandal came out 56 00:02:24,070 --> 00:02:21,360 and i thought that this would be an 57 00:02:25,270 --> 00:02:24,080 interesting way to infuse a little news 58 00:02:27,030 --> 00:02:25,280 and current events and maybe some 59 00:02:28,229 --> 00:02:27,040 discussion of conspiracy into a show 60 00:02:29,670 --> 00:02:28,239 that already 61 00:02:31,589 --> 00:02:29,680 in the introduction says where 62 00:02:34,150 --> 00:02:31,599 conspiracy theory becomes conspiracy 63 00:02:35,430 --> 00:02:34,160 fact but the listenership is quick to do 64 00:02:37,750 --> 00:02:35,440 one of two things we love them and want 65 00:02:39,589 --> 00:02:37,760 to hear more of it or the other 50 who 66 00:02:41,990 --> 00:02:39,599 say we never want to hear politics again 67 00:02:43,910 --> 00:02:42,000 are listening to a show that deals with 68 00:02:45,990 --> 00:02:43,920 supernatural and unexplained and strange 69 00:02:47,910 --> 00:02:46,000 topics this is something that is 70 00:02:49,589 --> 00:02:47,920 repassed for us a break 71 00:02:50,949 --> 00:02:49,599 from the 24-hour news cycles and the 72 00:02:52,150 --> 00:02:50,959 spin cycles 73 00:02:53,830 --> 00:02:52,160 that are going on out there so we don't 74 00:02:55,270 --> 00:02:53,840 want to hear that and so i i can 75 00:02:57,030 --> 00:02:55,280 sympathize with you guys when you say 76 00:02:58,869 --> 00:02:57,040 that you know you're castigated for 77 00:03:00,390 --> 00:02:58,879 discussing those things but you know you 78 00:03:02,070 --> 00:03:00,400 win some you lose some you're going to 79 00:03:03,430 --> 00:03:02,080 be castigated no matter what and so i 80 00:03:05,270 --> 00:03:03,440 figured i'll at least move those 81 00:03:06,790 --> 00:03:05,280 subjects to a different format 82 00:03:08,790 --> 00:03:06,800 altogether and that's why i do middle 83 00:03:09,670 --> 00:03:08,800 theory but even on middle theory trying 84 00:03:11,910 --> 00:03:09,680 to be 85 00:03:14,149 --> 00:03:11,920 centrist and approaching the news 86 00:03:15,670 --> 00:03:14,159 without putting a heavy bias on it i 87 00:03:17,110 --> 00:03:15,680 still will get it from both sides people 88 00:03:19,110 --> 00:03:17,120 will say well mikey you've got a leftist 89 00:03:21,670 --> 00:03:19,120 agenda i get that an awful lot that's 90 00:03:24,390 --> 00:03:21,680 part of the problem here especially on 91 00:03:25,110 --> 00:03:24,400 the more conservative shows anyone who 92 00:03:26,790 --> 00:03:25,120 is 93 00:03:28,710 --> 00:03:26,800 somewhat to the left even at their 94 00:03:31,830 --> 00:03:28,720 centrist or right of center 95 00:03:34,390 --> 00:03:31,840 becomes a flaming liberal all democrats 96 00:03:35,430 --> 00:03:34,400 have to be flaming liberals they can't 97 00:03:37,589 --> 00:03:35,440 just be 98 00:03:39,589 --> 00:03:37,599 people who have moderate views on 99 00:03:41,670 --> 00:03:39,599 different subjects and some are more 100 00:03:44,390 --> 00:03:41,680 left some are more right i mean that's 101 00:03:45,750 --> 00:03:44,400 what's so ridiculous about how that 102 00:03:48,229 --> 00:03:45,760 works but the more important thing is 103 00:03:50,390 --> 00:03:48,239 when it comes to the paranormal world 104 00:03:52,390 --> 00:03:50,400 i don't think you can separate politics 105 00:03:54,550 --> 00:03:52,400 because look at all the people who are 106 00:03:56,229 --> 00:03:54,560 asking for ufo disclosure who's going to 107 00:03:57,509 --> 00:03:56,239 disclose ufos 108 00:03:59,350 --> 00:03:57,519 governments 109 00:04:00,630 --> 00:03:59,360 who runs the government of course the 110 00:04:02,390 --> 00:04:00,640 politicians 111 00:04:05,030 --> 00:04:02,400 so suddenly you are in the political 112 00:04:07,509 --> 00:04:05,040 realm or for example when 113 00:04:10,550 --> 00:04:07,519 secretary clinton running for president 114 00:04:13,110 --> 00:04:10,560 promises to look into the ufo matter or 115 00:04:15,030 --> 00:04:13,120 her chairman of her campaign committee 116 00:04:18,069 --> 00:04:15,040 john podesta who's been doing it for 20 117 00:04:20,310 --> 00:04:18,079 years he's been interested in ufos and 118 00:04:21,990 --> 00:04:20,320 made no bones about it when they start 119 00:04:23,670 --> 00:04:22,000 talking ufos 120 00:04:26,629 --> 00:04:23,680 these are politicians 121 00:04:28,710 --> 00:04:26,639 talking ufos if you ever read a book by 122 00:04:31,749 --> 00:04:28,720 major donald kehoe the pioneer in the 123 00:04:34,230 --> 00:04:31,759 ufo field it was very very much about 124 00:04:36,230 --> 00:04:34,240 politics about the silence group about 125 00:04:38,710 --> 00:04:36,240 the forces within the government who 126 00:04:41,350 --> 00:04:38,720 might be keeping the ufo secret how do 127 00:04:43,189 --> 00:04:41,360 you leave politics out of it anyway well 128 00:04:45,270 --> 00:04:43,199 i don't really think that you can coming 129 00:04:47,189 --> 00:04:45,280 back to what you said earlier about you 130 00:04:48,950 --> 00:04:47,199 express a particular position on an 131 00:04:50,790 --> 00:04:48,960 issue and suddenly this is something 132 00:04:52,469 --> 00:04:50,800 that is touted as being either a liberal 133 00:04:54,550 --> 00:04:52,479 or a conservative issue and you're 134 00:04:57,270 --> 00:04:54,560 suddenly branded as being of that 135 00:04:59,430 --> 00:04:57,280 particular ideology and usually to the 136 00:05:01,110 --> 00:04:59,440 extreme whereas really i know in my case 137 00:05:03,749 --> 00:05:01,120 this is true i may just hold a 138 00:05:06,469 --> 00:05:03,759 particular view about a social issue or 139 00:05:08,629 --> 00:05:06,479 an economic issue that happens to fall 140 00:05:10,310 --> 00:05:08,639 into the general ideology of liberal or 141 00:05:12,070 --> 00:05:10,320 conservative in america today but the 142 00:05:14,550 --> 00:05:12,080 polarization is where the problem is now 143 00:05:16,950 --> 00:05:14,560 coming to kehoe and the history of 144 00:05:19,990 --> 00:05:16,960 politics involved with the ufo subject 145 00:05:21,830 --> 00:05:20,000 absolutely the two are inseparable and 146 00:05:23,430 --> 00:05:21,840 that's the modern exopolitical movement 147 00:05:25,430 --> 00:05:23,440 or the disclosure movement that we see 148 00:05:27,510 --> 00:05:25,440 again you know i am very careful gene 149 00:05:29,110 --> 00:05:27,520 about giving myself to the idea that 150 00:05:30,150 --> 00:05:29,120 aliens from space are what we're dealing 151 00:05:32,310 --> 00:05:30,160 with here i think that there are a lot 152 00:05:33,590 --> 00:05:32,320 of varieties of potentials but kehoe 153 00:05:35,350 --> 00:05:33,600 keep in mind he wrote that book i have 154 00:05:37,590 --> 00:05:35,360 that on my shelf over here 155 00:05:39,110 --> 00:05:37,600 aliens from space he was very much of 156 00:05:40,950 --> 00:05:39,120 the mind that this phenomena could not 157 00:05:42,390 --> 00:05:40,960 be explained in any other way 158 00:05:44,870 --> 00:05:42,400 we had to be dealing with something that 159 00:05:46,870 --> 00:05:44,880 was in likelihood extraterrestrial 160 00:05:49,029 --> 00:05:46,880 and yes that there was or it needed to 161 00:05:50,950 --> 00:05:49,039 be a political movement behind 162 00:05:51,909 --> 00:05:50,960 acquisition of that data from whoever 163 00:05:53,350 --> 00:05:51,919 may be 164 00:05:54,790 --> 00:05:53,360 withholding from the public the real 165 00:05:57,110 --> 00:05:54,800 information about what we're dealing 166 00:05:59,590 --> 00:05:57,120 with so reading his stuff years after 167 00:06:01,430 --> 00:05:59,600 the fact is not only very interesting 168 00:06:03,670 --> 00:06:01,440 but it does put in perspective the 169 00:06:05,990 --> 00:06:03,680 necessary understanding of how politics 170 00:06:07,909 --> 00:06:06,000 fits into the ufo subject and vice versa 171 00:06:09,670 --> 00:06:07,919 which again like you're discussing with 172 00:06:11,990 --> 00:06:09,680 clinton and podesta yeah we see it very 173 00:06:14,870 --> 00:06:12,000 much in the 2016 election i'm just 174 00:06:16,309 --> 00:06:14,880 surprised here that trump isn't tweeting 175 00:06:19,830 --> 00:06:16,319 back and forth he's talking about 176 00:06:22,150 --> 00:06:19,840 crooked hillary lock her up how about 177 00:06:23,749 --> 00:06:22,160 spaced out hillary because she wants to 178 00:06:25,430 --> 00:06:23,759 look into ufos 179 00:06:27,270 --> 00:06:25,440 i'm surprised he hasn't latched on to 180 00:06:29,909 --> 00:06:27,280 that but it is interesting that people 181 00:06:32,070 --> 00:06:29,919 don't seem to attack her very much over 182 00:06:34,150 --> 00:06:32,080 what again the scientific establishment 183 00:06:35,990 --> 00:06:34,160 would consider an extremely silly 184 00:06:37,590 --> 00:06:36,000 position to hold it there's nothing to 185 00:06:39,029 --> 00:06:37,600 see here therefore why would you 186 00:06:41,510 --> 00:06:39,039 investigate and try to call for 187 00:06:44,070 --> 00:06:41,520 disclosure of government uh ufo files 188 00:06:45,990 --> 00:06:44,080 she said during her uh dnc speech her 189 00:06:47,510 --> 00:06:46,000 acceptance speech the other night quote 190 00:06:49,189 --> 00:06:47,520 i believe in science and then she kind 191 00:06:50,629 --> 00:06:49,199 of giggled and of course people in the 192 00:06:51,749 --> 00:06:50,639 scientific establishment gave her some 193 00:06:53,270 --> 00:06:51,759 trouble over that because they said well 194 00:06:55,270 --> 00:06:53,280 science isn't about belief hillary look 195 00:06:57,590 --> 00:06:55,280 come on i understand what she was trying 196 00:07:00,070 --> 00:06:57,600 to say because we have a political party 197 00:07:02,629 --> 00:07:00,080 that makes up science they don't accept 198 00:07:04,629 --> 00:07:02,639 science i mean it's one thing to 199 00:07:05,670 --> 00:07:04,639 disagree with scientific findings 200 00:07:08,469 --> 00:07:05,680 especially if you know what you're 201 00:07:10,629 --> 00:07:08,479 talking about yeah but not to take 202 00:07:12,870 --> 00:07:10,639 accepted science 203 00:07:14,390 --> 00:07:12,880 and just make up things really in 204 00:07:17,110 --> 00:07:14,400 fairness would say i see a little of it 205 00:07:19,430 --> 00:07:17,120 on both sides of the political spectrum 206 00:07:21,270 --> 00:07:19,440 i think that coming to ufos that that 207 00:07:22,790 --> 00:07:21,280 can be something that can be discussed 208 00:07:24,950 --> 00:07:22,800 both politically 209 00:07:26,950 --> 00:07:24,960 and scientifically and so that's what's 210 00:07:29,589 --> 00:07:26,960 interesting about clinton's advocacy of 211 00:07:30,950 --> 00:07:29,599 ufo disclosure is that she is being 212 00:07:32,070 --> 00:07:30,960 touted right now as the science 213 00:07:33,990 --> 00:07:32,080 candidate and yet the scientific 214 00:07:35,990 --> 00:07:34,000 establishment seems to be saying very 215 00:07:37,990 --> 00:07:36,000 little about or expressing very little 216 00:07:40,150 --> 00:07:38,000 concern about her interest in ufos so 217 00:07:42,550 --> 00:07:40,160 maybe the question here is does she 218 00:07:44,629 --> 00:07:42,560 bring do people like she and podesta 219 00:07:46,550 --> 00:07:44,639 bring an air of credibility to the 220 00:07:48,710 --> 00:07:46,560 scientific discussion and the political 221 00:07:49,430 --> 00:07:48,720 discussion of the ufo subject now take 222 00:07:52,309 --> 00:07:49,440 it 223 00:07:54,390 --> 00:07:52,319 endorsement i'm just saying she very 224 00:07:55,670 --> 00:07:54,400 well may be able to do that but and i do 225 00:07:56,950 --> 00:07:55,680 find that interesting again this is 226 00:07:57,990 --> 00:07:56,960 something that you don't hear an awful 227 00:07:59,350 --> 00:07:58,000 lot about and i think you're right to 228 00:08:01,510 --> 00:07:59,360 point that out so why is she not 229 00:08:03,350 --> 00:08:01,520 attacked by trump or whoever else for 230 00:08:05,909 --> 00:08:03,360 holding that position that's interesting 231 00:08:09,189 --> 00:08:05,919 it may be that trump is focusing 232 00:08:10,629 --> 00:08:09,199 a narrow area of attack and this is kind 233 00:08:12,550 --> 00:08:10,639 of out of his 234 00:08:15,350 --> 00:08:12,560 radar he doesn't see this because it's 235 00:08:16,950 --> 00:08:15,360 not something he concentrates into he'll 236 00:08:19,670 --> 00:08:16,960 talk about crooked hillary about the 237 00:08:21,270 --> 00:08:19,680 email he'll talk about her being the 238 00:08:23,430 --> 00:08:21,280 person who started isis that's one of 239 00:08:27,110 --> 00:08:23,440 the recent charges he's made 240 00:08:28,390 --> 00:08:27,120 but ufos is something so far beyond his 241 00:08:30,869 --> 00:08:28,400 attention 242 00:08:32,550 --> 00:08:30,879 he hasn't ever focused on it has nothing 243 00:08:34,149 --> 00:08:32,560 to do with his experience 244 00:08:35,750 --> 00:08:34,159 and so therefore 245 00:08:36,949 --> 00:08:35,760 it is to him 246 00:08:39,589 --> 00:08:36,959 alien 247 00:08:42,070 --> 00:08:39,599 yes i suppose so bernie sanders earlier 248 00:08:45,350 --> 00:08:42,080 in the primaries had been asked about 249 00:08:47,190 --> 00:08:45,360 his interest in ufos and he essentially 250 00:08:49,190 --> 00:08:47,200 put that subject down and said i don't 251 00:08:51,110 --> 00:08:49,200 have any interest in that that's not 252 00:08:53,509 --> 00:08:51,120 going to be a fundamental tenet of my 253 00:08:55,269 --> 00:08:53,519 campaign and when we go back to 2008 254 00:08:56,630 --> 00:08:55,279 barack obama had expressed a similar 255 00:08:59,030 --> 00:08:56,640 sentiment during one of the debates that 256 00:09:00,310 --> 00:08:59,040 was televised he was asked essentially 257 00:09:01,509 --> 00:09:00,320 what do you think about alien life he 258 00:09:03,590 --> 00:09:01,519 says look i don't know if there's life 259 00:09:05,509 --> 00:09:03,600 out there but i do know life exists here 260 00:09:07,269 --> 00:09:05,519 on earth and as president i'm going to 261 00:09:09,590 --> 00:09:07,279 address that first so in terms of the 262 00:09:12,230 --> 00:09:09,600 hierarchy of concerns i realize 263 00:09:14,150 --> 00:09:12,240 politicians left or right are not going 264 00:09:16,389 --> 00:09:14,160 to be typically of a mind to say that 265 00:09:18,790 --> 00:09:16,399 ufos are the fundamental tenet of my 266 00:09:22,150 --> 00:09:18,800 campaign but gene who is that guys and 267 00:09:23,829 --> 00:09:22,160 uh um visagio yeah uh yeah of andrew 268 00:09:25,430 --> 00:09:23,839 basajio i think 269 00:09:27,110 --> 00:09:25,440 he's talking about having been one of 270 00:09:28,630 --> 00:09:27,120 these time travelers he wants ufo 271 00:09:31,430 --> 00:09:28,640 disclosure and all this you know who i'm 272 00:09:33,750 --> 00:09:31,440 talking about i do we had thought from 273 00:09:35,590 --> 00:09:33,760 time to time to bring him on the show 274 00:09:37,190 --> 00:09:35,600 but it would be something that would end 275 00:09:38,710 --> 00:09:37,200 up being a bloodbath and i'll give you 276 00:09:40,389 --> 00:09:38,720 an example of that we'll take it into 277 00:09:42,150 --> 00:09:40,399 the next segment when we bring 278

talk 413 00:15:31,829 --> 00:15:29,440 about politics even if it's politics as 414 00:15:33,590 --> 00:15:31,839 related to the paranormal 415 00:15:35,030 --> 00:15:33,600 because as soon as you talk about ufo 416 00:15:36,389 --> 00:15:35,040 disclosure you're dealing with 417 00:15:38,230 --> 00:15:36,399 politicians 418 00:15:40,710 --> 00:15:38,240 as soon as you find a politician who 419 00:15:42,550 --> 00:15:40,720 promises to get to the bottom of it like 420 00:15:45,350 --> 00:15:42,560 a certain former secretary of state 421 00:15:47,670 --> 00:15:45,360 clinton you have politics as soon as you 422 00:15:49,670 --> 00:15:47,680 read a book from major donald kehoe 423 00:15:50,870 --> 00:15:49,680 and even the book by the late captain 424 00:15:53,189 --> 00:15:50,880 rupelt 425 00:15:56,389 --> 00:15:53,199 politics gets into it 426 00:15:59,110 --> 00:15:56,399 so what do i do randall well that's okay 427 00:16:00,310 --> 00:15:59,120 sue you started off that's fine 428 00:16:02,470 --> 00:16:00,320 i think 429 00:16:04,949 --> 00:16:02,480 there's a perfectly valid entrance for 430 00:16:07,430 --> 00:16:04,959 talking about politics with regard to 431 00:16:11,030 --> 00:16:07,440 ufos when it comes to disclosure because 432 00:16:13,110 --> 00:16:11,040 you've kind of got two competing lenses 433 00:16:15,910 --> 00:16:13,120 aimed at the same topic 434 00:16:17,430 --> 00:16:15,920 there's a whole ufo angle on the matter 435 00:16:20,069 --> 00:16:17,440 and then you have to take into account 436 00:16:23,110 --> 00:16:20,079 the way the world of real politics 437 00:16:25,030 --> 00:16:23,120 works and and kind of triangulate the 438 00:16:27,350 --> 00:16:25,040 two and see how well they fit over one 439 00:16:28,870 --> 00:16:27,360 another that's my first impression that 440 00:16:31,829 --> 00:16:28,880 kind of discussion i think is really 441 00:16:33,509 --> 00:16:31,839 interesting and fruitful uh randall your 442 00:16:34,790 --> 00:16:33,519 thoughts 443 00:16:36,870 --> 00:16:34,800 actually i 444 00:16:38,550 --> 00:16:36,880 agree with you completely i i think it's 445 00:16:39,990 --> 00:16:38,560 part of the way that politics is 446 00:16:42,389 --> 00:16:40,000 structured you can 447 00:16:44,710 --> 00:16:42,399 follow all of the candidates around and 448 00:16:45,990 --> 00:16:44,720 and you know that wherever they go 449 00:16:48,150 --> 00:16:46,000 they've got people who are looking at 450 00:16:49,829 --> 00:16:48,160 the demographics and what people think 451 00:16:52,310 --> 00:16:49,839 and so when they're in a place where 452 00:16:54,629 --> 00:16:52,320 people want to hear a certain thing they 453 00:16:56,230 --> 00:16:54,639 say what those people want to hear 454 00:16:58,389 --> 00:16:56,240 and of course that's why you get all of 455 00:16:59,910 --> 00:16:58,399 the contradictions because in one place 456 00:17:01,590 --> 00:16:59,920 some people are going to think something 457 00:17:03,670 --> 00:17:01,600 different and in another place they'll 458 00:17:06,470 --> 00:17:03,680 think something different again 459 00:17:08,390 --> 00:17:06,480 so when they're around where people 460 00:17:10,069 --> 00:17:08,400 want to know about ufos they're going to 461 00:17:12,069 --> 00:17:10,079 tell them what they want to hear and 462 00:17:13,990 --> 00:17:12,079 then when they get into office like 463 00:17:15,189 --> 00:17:14,000 everything else they just do what they 464 00:17:16,390 --> 00:17:15,199 want to do 465 00:17:18,309 --> 00:17:16,400 or they do 466 00:17:20,069 --> 00:17:18,319 what the person who contributed 100 467 00:17:21,110 --> 00:17:20,079 million dollars to their campaign wants 468 00:17:23,510 --> 00:17:21,120 them to do 469 00:17:25,750 --> 00:17:23,520 and there's no ufo lobby of that size if 470 00:17:27,990 --> 00:17:25,760 stephen bassett could raise 471 00:17:29,990 --> 00:17:28,000 100 million dollars for a political 472 00:17:33,350 --> 00:17:30,000 action committee to 473 00:17:35,510 --> 00:17:33,360 put money into the particular candidate 474 00:17:37,430 --> 00:17:35,520 that he prefers 475 00:17:38,630 --> 00:17:37,440 then i assure you the ufo lobby would 476 00:17:40,789 --> 00:17:38,640 get attention 477 00:17:42,950 --> 00:17:40,799 well that kind of raises a question for 478 00:17:45,590 --> 00:17:42,960 me with all the increase in the private 479 00:17:47,270 --> 00:17:45,600 space program stuff going on 480 00:17:50,230 --> 00:17:47,280 is that going to mean that there are 481 00:17:52,789 --> 00:17:50,240 going to be more reports of sightings 482 00:17:53,909 --> 00:17:52,799 coming from those avenues or would they 483 00:17:55,430 --> 00:17:53,919 not reach 484 00:17:58,070 --> 00:17:55,440 the public because they're from 485 00:18:00,390 --> 00:17:58,080 privately funded ventures you know what 486 00:18:02,390 --> 00:18:00,400 i mean they have no obligation to tell 487 00:18:04,710 --> 00:18:02,400 anybody anything they're private but 488 00:18:07,190 --> 00:18:04,720 they might want to talk about it anyway 489 00:18:09,110 --> 00:18:07,200 we've already had that happening with 490 00:18:11,029 --> 00:18:09,120 several companies 491 00:18:12,470 --> 00:18:11,039 but no ufos yet 492 00:18:14,549 --> 00:18:12,480 you know one thing i'm reminded of guys 493 00:18:16,630 --> 00:18:14,559 is uh robert bigelow and of course 494 00:18:18,150 --> 00:18:16,640 bigelow aerospace he is one of these 495 00:18:19,510 --> 00:18:18,160 private companies and before that he of 496 00:18:21,350 --> 00:18:19,520 course had the national institute for 497 00:18:23,430 --> 00:18:21,360 discovery science and they 498 00:18:25,270 --> 00:18:23,440 sometimes did uh reveal 499 00:18:27,110 --> 00:18:25,280 some of their findings in public uh 500 00:18:30,549 --> 00:18:27,120 reports but then again there's also the 501 00:18:32,230 --> 00:18:30,559 other side of that coin in which bigelow 502 00:18:34,230 --> 00:18:32,240 certainly kept some of his findings and 503 00:18:35,830 --> 00:18:34,240 research away from public eyes and 504 00:18:37,270 --> 00:18:35,840 furthermore had hoped to try and work 505 00:18:38,789 --> 00:18:37,280 with mufon 506 00:18:40,390 --> 00:18:38,799 in order to be able to gain access to 507 00:18:43,750 --> 00:18:40,400 their information and again a civil 508 00:18:46,150 --> 00:18:43,760 civilian group as mufon is they also 509 00:18:48,070 --> 00:18:46,160 for a variety of reasons but namely of 510 00:18:50,549 --> 00:18:48,080 course because they are a membership 511 00:18:51,990 --> 00:18:50,559 organization they also and i think 512 00:18:54,470 --> 00:18:52,000 perhaps with good reason keep some of 513 00:18:56,390 --> 00:18:54,480 their files private just as well in 514 00:18:58,390 --> 00:18:56,400 other words how else would they appeal 515 00:19:00,070 --> 00:18:58,400 to new membership if they didn't so 516 00:19:02,150 --> 00:19:00,080 there are a variety of reasons why 517 00:19:04,310 --> 00:19:02,160 private entity would maybe keep certain 518 00:19:05,029 --> 00:19:04,320 things off record so to speak just as 519 00:19:07,350 --> 00:19:05,039 well 520 00:19:10,150 --> 00:19:07,360 i guess the question is is is there 521 00:19:11,990 --> 00:19:10,160 therefore a cause for some sort of a 522 00:19:14,630 --> 00:19:12,000 non-profit organization that would be 523 00:19:15,909 --> 00:19:14,640 completely 100 transparent about its 524 00:19:17,830 --> 00:19:15,919 findings that would be able to try and 525 00:19:20,150 --> 00:19:17,840 glean interest and and funding and 526 00:19:22,710 --> 00:19:20,160 scientific research into ufos that would 527 00:19:24,470 --> 00:19:22,720 truly fairly present and uh and be 528 00:19:26,470 --> 00:19:24,480 entirely forthcoming with information 529 00:19:27,830 --> 00:19:26,480 found in terms of the way it 530 00:19:29,270 --> 00:19:27,840 communicates with the public could that 531 00:19:30,310 --> 00:19:29,280 kind of a thing really realistically 532 00:19:32,470 --> 00:19:30,320 happen 533 00:19:34,390 --> 00:19:32,480 i think so i know that's what i've been 534 00:19:37,110 --> 00:19:34,400 trying to do with the group that i've 535 00:19:39,430 --> 00:19:37,120 got here and i don't charge anything to 536 00:19:42,230 --> 00:19:39,440 be part of our website or 537 00:19:44,150 --> 00:19:42,240 membership in in the group or anything 538 00:19:46,549 --> 00:19:44,160 like that but the trick is getting 539 00:19:48,549 --> 00:19:46,559 people actually involved who want to 540 00:19:49,830 --> 00:19:48,559 spend the time everyone has a lot of 541 00:19:51,990 --> 00:19:49,840 good ideas 542 00:19:53,909 --> 00:19:52,000 but getting them off the couch is pretty 543 00:19:55,909 --> 00:19:53,919 tough sometimes randall can you recap 544 00:19:58,230 --> 00:19:55,919 what your group is and what you do oh 545 00:19:59,909 --> 00:19:58,240 it's the ufology society international 546 00:20:02,390 --> 00:19:59,919 i've had it for 547 00:20:05,510 --> 00:20:02,400 oh nearly 30 years now 548 00:20:08,070 --> 00:20:05,520 and we've got a few thousand members in 549 00:20:10,310 --> 00:20:08,080 about 20 25 countries 550 00:20:12,789 --> 00:20:10,320 around the world and everyone loves to 551 00:20:15,029 --> 00:20:12,799 support the idea in principle but 552 00:20:17,830 --> 00:20:15,039 getting someone who is willing to take 553 00:20:20,630 --> 00:20:17,840 even just time to put into write 554 00:20:23,110 --> 00:20:20,640 articles to do some research to 555 00:20:25,590 --> 00:20:23,120 to do more than just support the cause 556 00:20:28,470 --> 00:20:25,600 and principle that's really tough 557 00:20:30,310 --> 00:20:28,480 yeah certainly is thank you by the way 558 00:20:33,190 --> 00:20:30,320 but we look at this here 559 00:20:35,830 --> 00:20:33,200 i don't foresee ever 560 00:20:38,149 --> 00:20:35,840 ufo disclosure i think if there is a 561 00:20:40,390 --> 00:20:38,159 revelation about ufos it would be 562 00:20:42,230 --> 00:20:40,400 externally driven but the other thing to 563 00:20:44,549 --> 00:20:42,240 bear in mind here is 564 00:20:46,789 --> 00:20:44,559 if you put all or a lot of the key 565 00:20:49,029 --> 00:20:46,799 elements of ufo research from the 566 00:20:50,390 --> 00:20:49,039 government into the private sector 567 00:20:52,870 --> 00:20:50,400 immediately they don't have the 568 00:20:55,430 --> 00:20:52,880 obligation to tell you bob bigelow does 569 00:20:56,310 --> 00:20:55,440 not have the obligation to tell you elon 570 00:20:58,390 --> 00:20:56,320 musk 571 00:21:00,149 --> 00:20:58,400 doesn't have to tell you a thing even 572 00:21:02,230 --> 00:21:00,159 though spacex is 573 00:21:03,110 --> 00:21:02,240 taking off and landing and he plans to 574 00:21:05,190 --> 00:21:03,120 send 575 00:21:07,990 --> 00:21:05,200 men to mars 576 00:21:09,830 --> 00:21:08,000 10 15 years ahead of nasa he's got all 577 00:21:12,710 --> 00:21:09,840 this stuff going on 578 00:21:14,549 --> 00:21:12,720 but if there were ufo sightings 579 00:21:16,390 --> 00:21:14,559 he's not public official he can do what 580 00:21:19,270 --> 00:21:16,400 he wants as long as it's not against the 581 00:21:22,149 --> 00:21:19,280 law and even then you wonder 582 00:21:23,990 --> 00:21:22,159 well yeah i remember when um 583 00:21:25,590 --> 00:21:24,000 we were talking about bigelow one time 584 00:21:28,070 --> 00:21:25,600 so i went to his website and he was 585 00:21:29,669 --> 00:21:28,080 actually recruiting people to work for 586 00:21:33,110 --> 00:21:29,679 him on 587 00:21:34,710 --> 00:21:33,120 discovering how ufos work and he was 588 00:21:36,870 --> 00:21:34,720 really focusing on their propulsion 589 00:21:38,710 --> 00:21:36,880 systems and you can imagine 590 00:21:40,230 --> 00:21:38,720 what a benefit that could be to a 591 00:21:42,549 --> 00:21:40,240 private corporation if they were able to 592 00:21:46,230 --> 00:21:42,559 figure that out and i remember him 593 00:21:48,630 --> 00:21:46,240 advertising for outside the box thinkers 594 00:21:51,510 --> 00:21:48,640 and when i went to look at what he 595 00:21:53,750 --> 00:21:51,520 wanted in terms of credentials they were 596 00:21:54,789 --> 00:21:53,760 all inside the box credentials people 597 00:21:58,230 --> 00:21:54,799 with 598 00:22:00,230 --> 00:21:58,240 degrees in physics or math or whatever 599 00:22:02,310 --> 00:22:00,240 it happened to be so you have 600 00:22:04,390 --> 00:22:02,320 this person who wants to think outside 601 00:22:06,950 --> 00:22:04,400 the box but is only hiring people who 602 00:22:09,029 --> 00:22:06,960 think inside the box to get it done 603 00:22:11,190 --> 00:22:09,039 and i thought that was a little ironic 604 00:22:12,789 --> 00:22:11,200 yeah that's an interesting point yeah 605 00:22:14,789 --> 00:22:12,799 yeah sue go ahead i'm sorry i think i 606 00:22:15,990 --> 00:22:14,799 may have cut you off by the way oh i was 607 00:22:17,590 --> 00:22:16,000 just i 608 00:22:20,149 --> 00:22:17,600 thought that was an interesting point 609 00:22:22,390 --> 00:22:20,159 and i wonder if i could kind of pose a 610 00:22:24,149 --> 00:22:22,400 question putting it in broader context 611 00:22:26,310 --> 00:22:24,159 because i'm not 612 00:22:27,830 --> 00:22:26,320 super familiar with the history of ufos 613 00:22:30,149 --> 00:22:27,840 but

totally different 741 00:28:01,029 --> 00:27:59,200 so last week for example this is where 742 00:28:03,269 --> 00:28:01,039 we got in trouble with chris we're 743 00:28:05,110 --> 00:28:03,279 talking about the possibility that major 744 00:28:08,149 --> 00:28:05,120 political upheavals 745 00:28:10,149 --> 00:28:08,159 or major events that change things a lot 746 00:28:11,909 --> 00:28:10,159 will bring with them 747 00:28:13,029 --> 00:28:11,919 lots and lots of sightings so for 748 00:28:15,750 --> 00:28:13,039 example 749 00:28:18,870 --> 00:28:15,760 when we had all the things around the 750 00:28:21,590 --> 00:28:18,880 watergate episode in the early 70s think 751 00:28:22,630 --> 00:28:21,600 about the ufo flaps all over the place 752 00:28:25,669 --> 00:28:22,640 or when 753 00:28:26,789 --> 00:28:25,679 reagan was elected president in 1980 a 754 00:28:29,190 --> 00:28:26,799 lot of 755 00:28:32,149 --> 00:28:29,200 changes in the way the political 756 00:28:34,470 --> 00:28:32,159 structure was run in the u.s and various 757 00:28:36,549 --> 00:28:34,480 programs and everything lots of 758 00:28:38,310 --> 00:28:36,559 paranormal events so that was one 759 00:28:41,110 --> 00:28:38,320 particular thing right there 760 00:28:43,029 --> 00:28:41,120 that great change politically after 761 00:28:44,389 --> 00:28:43,039 world war ii of course 762 00:28:45,750 --> 00:28:44,399 will often 763 00:28:47,990 --> 00:28:45,760 bring about 764 00:28:49,990 --> 00:28:48,000 an increase in paranormal events and 765 00:28:52,549 --> 00:28:50,000 that might be the only 766 00:28:54,710 --> 00:28:52,559 sort of pattern we see 767 00:28:58,070 --> 00:28:54,720 in any case to learn more about the 768 00:29:01,029 --> 00:28:58,080 powercast plus go to plus.powercast.com 769 00:29:03,110 --> 00:29:01,039 it is spelled p l u s dot the 770 00:29:05,750 --> 00:29:03,120 powercast.com 771 00:29:07,110 --> 00:29:05,760 now you've had your organization going 772 00:29:08,549 --> 00:29:07,120 randall for 773 00:29:11,190 --> 00:29:08,559 several decades 774 00:29:12,950 --> 00:29:11,200 right have you seen a pattern in ufos we 775 00:29:14,389 --> 00:29:12,960 used to have ley lines we used to have 776 00:29:16,710 --> 00:29:14,399 seven year 777 00:29:19,430 --> 00:29:16,720 flaps five year flaps 778 00:29:21,909 --> 00:29:19,440 but every time you try to hone in on one 779 00:29:23,909 --> 00:29:21,919 of those patterns it changes 780 00:29:25,510 --> 00:29:23,919 it seems to me and this is the biggest 781 00:29:27,590 --> 00:29:25,520 pattern that i've noticed is that in the 782 00:29:30,310 --> 00:29:27,600 beginning of the modern era 783 00:29:33,110 --> 00:29:30,320 they were a lot more visible to us they 784 00:29:35,990 --> 00:29:33,120 were elusive still but they didn't seem 785 00:29:39,190 --> 00:29:36,000 to do the vanishing act that we see and 786 00:29:40,630 --> 00:29:39,200 it seems that as our technology to 787 00:29:42,310 --> 00:29:40,640 detect them has increased in 788 00:29:45,029 --> 00:29:42,320 sophistication 789 00:29:47,029 --> 00:29:45,039 they've increased their ability to avoid 790 00:29:48,950 --> 00:29:47,039 that detection sounds like kind of the 791 00:29:50,549 --> 00:29:48,960 trickster element there that chris often 792 00:29:51,750 --> 00:29:50,559 talks about but that's an interesting 793 00:29:53,990 --> 00:29:51,760 point to raise and i'll ask your 794 00:29:55,990 --> 00:29:54,000 opinions about it on the power cast 795 00:29:57,990 --> 00:29:56,000 we've talked to people who are working 796 00:30:00,310 --> 00:29:58,000 on ufo detectors 797 00:30:01,830 --> 00:30:00,320 like this group from canada that is 798 00:30:04,549 --> 00:30:01,840 going to launch 799 00:30:07,510 --> 00:30:04,559 a low earth orbit satellite or marked 800 00:30:09,430 --> 00:30:07,520 antonio and doug trumbull doing 801 00:30:10,630 --> 00:30:09,440 their particular 802 00:30:15,669 --> 00:30:10,640 ufo 803 00:30:17,590 --> 00:30:15,679 with leslie kane 804 00:30:19,350 --> 00:30:17,600 and a number of people from the center 805 00:30:20,870 --> 00:30:19,360 for ufo studies 806 00:30:23,350 --> 00:30:20,880 so do you think having all this 807 00:30:26,950 --> 00:30:23,360 technology at our beck and call we get 808 00:30:29,350 --> 00:30:26,960 this ufo detector system up the ufo or 809 00:30:31,510 --> 00:30:29,360 those responsible for the ufo 810 00:30:34,310 --> 00:30:31,520 presence they'll just change their 811 00:30:35,909 --> 00:30:34,320 methodology well i think that's what 812 00:30:37,669 --> 00:30:35,919 they've been doing all along and that's 813 00:30:40,310 --> 00:30:37,679 been the pattern 814 00:30:41,990 --> 00:30:40,320 so really it seems that it's up to them 815 00:30:43,990 --> 00:30:42,000 to decide whether or not they want to 816 00:30:46,630 --> 00:30:44,000 reveal themselves to us 817 00:30:48,549 --> 00:30:46,640 it might increase the chances that 818 00:30:50,470 --> 00:30:48,559 if they make a mistake or they're not 819 00:30:52,710 --> 00:30:50,480 fully prepared that we might catch 820 00:30:55,029 --> 00:30:52,720 something by accident but that kind of 821 00:30:57,990 --> 00:30:55,039 leads into the whole concept of well how 822 00:30:59,750 --> 00:30:58,000 much more proof do we really need now 823 00:31:01,669 --> 00:30:59,760 there's those who 824 00:31:04,470 --> 00:31:01,679 are willing to accept that alien 825 00:31:06,870 --> 00:31:04,480 visitation is a reality and those who 826 00:31:08,870 --> 00:31:06,880 are skeptical about it and and will 827 00:31:10,789 --> 00:31:08,880 refuse to believe probably 828 00:31:13,990 --> 00:31:10,799 unless they were given a free pass to a 829 00:31:16,230 --> 00:31:14,000 mothership tour so that sounds like fun 830 00:31:19,190 --> 00:31:16,240 you know and and even then i'm not sure 831 00:31:21,430 --> 00:31:19,200 that they would actually believe so 832 00:31:23,830 --> 00:31:21,440 my questioning of the whole disclosure 833 00:31:25,669 --> 00:31:23,840 thing is is it really necessary or 834 00:31:26,710 --> 00:31:25,679 should those of us who already know 835 00:31:29,750 --> 00:31:26,720 they're here 836 00:31:31,269 --> 00:31:29,760 try to get on with the business of doing 837 00:31:33,430 --> 00:31:31,279 what we would do 838 00:31:35,830 --> 00:31:33,440 on the assumption that they are already 839 00:31:38,070 --> 00:31:35,840 here what next yeah but doesn't that 840 00:31:39,750 --> 00:31:38,080 also create the climate for making ufos 841 00:31:40,950 --> 00:31:39,760 into a religion we already believe 842 00:31:43,750 --> 00:31:40,960 they're here 843 00:31:45,430 --> 00:31:43,760 it's like saying we believe god is here 844 00:31:46,870 --> 00:31:45,440 and i'm not attacking any particular 845 00:31:48,549 --> 00:31:46,880 religion i'm just 846 00:31:50,950 --> 00:31:48,559 making them 847 00:31:53,750 --> 00:31:50,960 similar that we know 848 00:31:56,389 --> 00:31:53,760 god is here that god is watching us we 849 00:31:57,830 --> 00:31:56,399 know the ufos are here we know ufos are 850 00:31:59,590 --> 00:31:57,840 watching us 851 00:32:02,070 --> 00:31:59,600 i think we have to go to the next step 852 00:32:03,190 --> 00:32:02,080 it's not about belief it's about what we 853 00:32:06,310 --> 00:32:03,200 can prove 854 00:32:08,470 --> 00:32:06,320 well i think that it's reasonable 855 00:32:10,870 --> 00:32:08,480 to believe that they're here based on 856 00:32:12,789 --> 00:32:10,880 the evidence that's out there and 857 00:32:14,789 --> 00:32:12,799 scientific evidence isn't the only 858 00:32:16,549 --> 00:32:14,799 standard by which it's reasonable to 859 00:32:18,549 --> 00:32:16,559 believe things 860 00:32:20,630 --> 00:32:18,559 religion on the other hand 861 00:32:24,389 --> 00:32:20,640 is involved with a lot of mythology and 862 00:32:26,870 --> 00:32:24,399 there's just not enough good evidence to 863 00:32:27,750 --> 00:32:26,880 support a belief in 864 00:32:30,149 --> 00:32:27,760 certain 865 00:32:31,909 --> 00:32:30,159 kinds of religious deities 866 00:32:33,669 --> 00:32:31,919 so i think you make a really good point 867 00:32:35,029 --> 00:32:33,679 that we have to be careful not to make 868 00:32:37,190 --> 00:32:35,039 up things 869 00:32:38,470 --> 00:32:37,200 that aren't reasonable or logically 870 00:32:39,669 --> 00:32:38,480 consistent 871 00:32:41,509 --> 00:32:39,679 but if we 872 00:32:44,710 --> 00:32:41,519 be really careful about walking that 873 00:32:46,470 --> 00:32:44,720 line and don't go over it into the cult 874 00:32:48,310 --> 00:32:46,480 of personality or they 875 00:32:49,990 --> 00:32:48,320 want to believe that their space brother 876 00:32:52,870 --> 00:32:50,000 is here to save the planet type of thing 877 00:32:55,110 --> 00:32:52,880 i think that we can still 878 00:32:57,509 --> 00:32:55,120 have a world view that includes the 879 00:32:58,549 --> 00:32:57,519 reality of alien visitation as opposed 880 00:33:00,470 --> 00:32:58,559 to being 881 00:33:03,669 --> 00:33:00,480 simply unsure that it really exists 882 00:33:05,830 --> 00:33:03,679 because we can't scientifically prove it 883 00:33:08,149 --> 00:33:05,840 i love the standard of logical 884 00:33:09,269 --> 00:33:08,159 consistency applied to the presence of 885 00:33:11,669 --> 00:33:09,279 aliens 886 00:33:13,830 --> 00:33:11,679 the problem i have with the argument 887 00:33:15,029 --> 00:33:13,840 that there's enough to believe that 888 00:33:17,190 --> 00:33:15,039 they're here 889 00:33:18,950 --> 00:33:17,200 without getting into the argument itself 890 00:33:21,909 --> 00:33:18,960 is that there are a lot of people who 891 00:33:23,590 --> 00:33:21,919 disagree so what to make of their 892 00:33:27,750 --> 00:33:23,600 disagreement 893 00:33:30,230 --> 00:33:27,760 are they all just wrong to me that's 894 00:33:34,230 --> 00:33:30,240 a reason to reflect further and not rush 895 00:33:37,110 --> 00:33:34,240 to belief for on my own part but i think 896 00:33:39,350 --> 00:33:37,120 you know the criteria of having logical 897 00:33:41,590 --> 00:33:39,360 logical consistency and plausible 898 00:33:43,190 --> 00:33:41,600 arguments can only 899 00:33:44,710 --> 00:33:43,200 forward things 900 00:33:46,789 --> 00:33:44,720 you know what sue's talking about right 901 00:33:48,070 --> 00:33:46,799 there brings us back to us a subject 902 00:33:50,549 --> 00:33:48,080 that you and i've addressed in the past 903 00:33:53,509 --> 00:33:50,559 before here on the pericast gene which 904 00:33:54,950 --> 00:33:53,519 is how can science be applied to a 905 00:33:56,789 --> 00:33:54,960 methodology for the study of this 906 00:33:59,669 --> 00:33:56,799 phenomena and one of the issues i think 907 00:34:01,350 --> 00:33:59,679 that we face with ufos is quite simply 908 00:34:03,430 --> 00:34:01,360 unlike in the scientific community where 909 00:34:05,909 --> 00:34:03,440 we look at the data and we say well with 910 00:34:07,269 --> 00:34:05,919 this data we have a consensus opinion 911 00:34:09,349 --> 00:34:07,279 based on what is most likely and 912 00:34:11,430 --> 00:34:09,359 therefore this is what science holds to 913 00:34:14,389 --> 00:34:11,440 be true based on our observations with 914 00:34:15,669 --> 00:34:14,399 ufos is sue outlines and i think coming 915 00:34:18,069 --> 00:34:15,679 back to randall's statements about there 916 00:34:19,829 --> 00:34:18,079 does seem to be enough to qualify for a 917 00:34:21,030 --> 00:34:19,839 discussion and yes we can make certain 918 00:34:22,629 --> 00:34:21,040 determinations about that but there 919 00:34:24,950 --> 00:34:22,639 doesn't seem to really be a consensus 920 00:34:26,869 --> 00:34:24,960 opinion about what exactly the nature of 921 00:34:28,470 --> 00:34:26,879 ufos if we take this to be anything i 922 00:34:29,990 --> 00:34:28,480 would say alien maybe rather than 923 00:34:32,710 --> 00:34:30,000 extraterrestrial just because that would 924 00:34:34,230 --> 00:34:32,720 account for a number of non-human things 925 00:34:35,990 --> 00:34:34,240 and that's still distinctly a 926 00:34:38,389 --> 00:34:36,000 hypothetical to me but again we don't 927 00:34:40,230 --> 00:34:38,399 seem to have that consensus opinion 928 00:34:41,909 --> 00:34:40,240 among ufologists about what exactly 929 00:34:44,310 --> 00:34:41,919 we're dealing with i mean again 930 00:34:46,550 --> 00:34:44,320 extra-dimensional phenomena man-made 931 00:34:48,790 --> 00:34:46,560 technologies that are kept off the books 932 00:34:50,629 --> 00:34:48,800 alien visitation time travelers from the 933 00:34:51,909 --> 00:34:50,639 future some of this may sound absurd to 934 00:34:53,109 --> 00:34:51,919 the more skeptical thinkers but 935 00:34:54,790 --> 00:34:53,119 nonetheless these are all things that 936 00:34:56,310 --> 00:34:54,800 have made their way into the discussion 937 00:34:58,470 --> 00:34:56,320 and really there still seems to be no 938 00:35:00,069 --> 00:34:58,480 real hard consensus about this is most 939 00:35:01,990 --> 00:35:00,079 likely what's going on many would argue 940 00:35:04,310 --> 00:35:02,000 that extraterrestrial visitation is that 941 00:35:05,670 --> 00:35:04,320 consensus and for the ufological 942 00:35:07,750 --> 00:35:05,680 community on the whole maybe it is but 943 00:35:09,510 --> 00:35:07,760 again i i sort of still abstain from 944 00:35:11,109 --> 00:35:09,520 judgment because there are so many 945 00:35:13,589 --> 00:35:11,119 different varieties of things that ufos 946 00:35:15,589 --> 00:35:13,599 still seem to be capable of being and so 947 00:35:17,270 --> 00:35:15,599 perhaps that consensus 948 00:35:19,030 --> 00:35:17,280 does elude us in a sense and that would 949 00:35:21,589 --> 00:35:19,040 maybe be the difference between the 950 00:35:23,190 --> 00:35:21,599 scientific worldview versus you know the 951 00:35:25,109 --> 00:35:23,200 actual intelligence that we have about 952 00:35:27,510 --> 00:35:25,119 ufos and what to do with it 953 00:35:29,190 --> 00:35:27,520 oh some great points there micah i 954 00:35:31,430 --> 00:35:29,200 happen to agree with you completely that 955 00:35:32,710 --> 00:35:31,440 using the word alien is the way to go 956 00:35:35,750 --> 00:35:32,720 with it because 957 00:35:37,750 --> 00:35:35,760 however it boils down once we begin 958 00:35:40,790 --> 00:35:37,760 talking about the subject matter 959 00:35:41,829 --> 00:35:40,800 in terms of ufos what people were seeing 960 00:35:44,150 --> 00:35:41,839 and 961 00:35:45,910 --> 00:35:44,160 investigating back when the term was 962 00:35:48,310 --> 00:35:45,920 first coined we were talking about 963 00:35:49,670 --> 00:35:48,320 flying saucers ufos and flying saucers 964 00:35:51,910 --> 00:35:49,680 are essentially 965 00:35:54,310 --> 00:35:51,920 the same thing ufo became a euphemism 966 00:35:56,150 --> 00:35:54,320 for flying saucers and we don't know 967 00:35:58,470 --> 00:35:56,160 exactly where they come from but we sure 968 00:36:00,710 --> 00:35:58,480 know they don't come from around here at 969 00:36:03,670 --> 00:36:00,720 least within the bounds of our known 970 00:36:05,510 --> 00:36:03,680 civilization and by every definition 971 00:36:07,349 --> 00:36:05,520 wherever they come from that does make 972 00:36:10,069 --> 00:36:07,359 them alien 973 00:36:12,790 --> 00:36:10,079 yeah very good points there randall 974 00:36:13,990 --> 00:36:12,800 we assume that alien doesn't necessarily 975 00:36:15,910 --> 00:36:14,000 mean 976 00:36:17,910 --> 00:36:15,920 from another planet 977 00:36:18,870 --> 00:36:17,920 exactly it could be an alien race that 978 00:36:22,310 --> 00:36:18,880 is 979 00:36:24,150 --> 00:36:22,320 local to us but alien in the sense that 980 00:36:25,990 --> 00:36:24,160 it's not something that 981 00:36:28,150 --> 00:36:26,000 is part of any particular country i mean 982 00:36:30,630 --> 00:36:28,160 we refer to 983 00:36:34,069 --> 00:36:30,640 immigrants at times as aliens you know 984 00:36:35,829 --> 00:36:34,079 one of the pejorative terms for 985 00:36:38,829 --> 00:36:35,839 immigrants that 986 00:36:41,510 --> 00:36:38,839 are undocumented in the us is illegal 987 00:36:43,349 --> 00:36:41,520 aliens and i think okay well maybe we're 988 00:36:45,190 --> 00:36:43,359 talking about the ones who have gray 989 00:36:47,270 --> 00:36:45,200 skins and they're short 990 00:36:48,790 --> 00:36:47,280 we have randall we have sue we have 991

00:41:29,349 --> 00:41:21,440 ufo.com you're listening to the paracast 1111 00:41:34,230 --> 00:41:30,950 listener round table with our guest 1112 00:41:35,190 --> 00:41:34,240 co-host micah hanks ensue 1113 00:41:45,589 --> 00:41:35,200 and 1114 00:41:47,990 --> 00:41:45,599 indications of exoplanets we were 1115 00:41:50,390 --> 00:41:48,000 talking to mark d'antonio 1116 00:41:52,950 --> 00:41:50,400 astronomer last week about this 1117 00:41:54,230 --> 00:41:52,960 more and more planets out there in the 1118 00:41:56,150 --> 00:41:54,240 cosmos 1119 00:41:58,630 --> 00:41:56,160 that may have conditions suitable to 1120 00:42:00,710 --> 00:41:58,640 life and maybe we are a bunch of happy 1121 00:42:02,230 --> 00:42:00,720 accidents here to get where we are 1122 00:42:03,670 --> 00:42:02,240 although some people think this is a 1123 00:42:06,069 --> 00:42:03,680 kind of accident that needs to be 1124 00:42:08,950 --> 00:42:06,079 cleaned up regardless 1125 00:42:11,270 --> 00:42:08,960 it does create at least the mathematical 1126 00:42:13,030 --> 00:42:11,280 possibility that's happened elsewhere 1127 00:42:15,670 --> 00:42:13,040 and maybe very often 1128 00:42:17,990 --> 00:42:15,680 so it was an excellent show 1129 00:42:19,270 --> 00:42:18,000 by the way excellent guest excellent 1130 00:42:20,309 --> 00:42:19,280 show 1131 00:42:21,589 --> 00:42:20,319 so 1132 00:42:23,910 --> 00:42:21,599 what do we do 1133 00:42:25,349 --> 00:42:23,920 well i think the eth is 1134 00:42:27,270 --> 00:42:25,359 reasonably 1135 00:42:28,790 --> 00:42:27,280 the most logical 1136 00:42:31,430 --> 00:42:28,800 way to look at the 1137 00:42:34,230 --> 00:42:31,440 situation but it's not the only one as 1138 00:42:37,750 --> 00:42:34,240 micah said the eth is logical it has 1139 00:42:39,589 --> 00:42:37,760 logical consistency it has plausibility 1140 00:42:41,990 --> 00:42:39,599 we look to be doing 1141 00:42:43,750 --> 00:42:42,000 the same thing ourselves in the future 1142 00:42:45,589 --> 00:42:43,760 traveling out to other star systems so 1143 00:42:47,990 --> 00:42:45,599 there's not much reason to think that 1144 00:42:49,829 --> 00:42:48,000 they might not be coming here on the 1145 00:42:51,510 --> 00:42:49,839 other hand things like 1146 00:42:54,069 --> 00:42:51,520 extra dimensional 1147 00:42:56,230 --> 00:42:54,079 or time travelers although we see that a 1148 00:42:59,030 --> 00:42:56,240 lot in science fiction and there is some 1149 00:43:01,190 --> 00:42:59,040 science mostly pop science that claims 1150 00:43:03,349 --> 00:43:01,200 it's possible really when you look at it 1151 00:43:06,069 --> 00:43:03,359 from a logical consistency point of view 1152 00:43:08,069 --> 00:43:06,079 it's not really possible not in the way 1153 00:43:10,470 --> 00:43:08,079 people think of it so i think we can 1154 00:43:12,470 --> 00:43:10,480 rule out some things and say other 1155 00:43:14,150 --> 00:43:12,480 things are more favorable 1156 00:43:16,630 --> 00:43:14,160 yeah i think it's important by the way 1157 00:43:17,349 --> 00:43:16,640 is we're all having this conversation uh 1158 00:43:21,270 --> 00:43:17,359 to 1159 00:43:22,950 --> 00:43:21,280 potentials and possibilities i you know 1160 00:43:24,870 --> 00:43:22,960 i can sense that all of us are putting 1161 00:43:26,390 --> 00:43:24,880 forward ideas and we're fairly 1162 00:43:29,750 --> 00:43:26,400 discussing things that like you say 1163 00:43:31,670 --> 00:43:29,760 randall maybe they are not as logically 1164 00:43:33,349 --> 00:43:31,680 plausible as certain other potentials 1165 00:43:34,870 --> 00:43:33,359 and you know because in the past for 1166 00:43:36,390 --> 00:43:34,880 instance and i wrote a book a few years 1167 00:43:37,430 --> 00:43:36,400 ago called the ufo singularity that 1168 00:43:39,510 --> 00:43:37,440 looked it well 1169 00:43:41,109 --> 00:43:39,520 let's look at some hypotheticals if we 1170 00:43:44,069 --> 00:43:41,119 were talking about for instance alien 1171 00:43:46,390 --> 00:43:44,079 visitation we are now seeing the rigors 1172 00:43:47,109 --> 00:43:46,400 of space travel before us and the kinds 1173 00:43:49,190 --> 00:43:47,119 of 1174 00:43:50,870 --> 00:43:49,200 things that happen to biological life 1175 00:43:51,829 --> 00:43:50,880 that spends time in space i mean we see 1176 00:43:53,589 --> 00:43:51,839 swelling 1177 00:43:56,550 --> 00:43:53,599 of the eyes and other organs we see 1178 00:43:59,030 --> 00:43:56,560 atrophy of musculature we see a lot of 1179 00:44:01,910 --> 00:43:59,040 things that are negatively impacting 1180 00:44:03,030 --> 00:44:01,920 biology when we presumably humans or 1181 00:44:04,950 --> 00:44:03,040 anyone else or any other kind of 1182 00:44:07,030 --> 00:44:04,960 biological life form spends time off 1183 00:44:10,309 --> 00:44:07,040 planet because we evolved to exist in 1184 00:44:12,630 --> 00:44:10,319 this habitat in this gravitational uh 1185 00:44:13,910 --> 00:44:12,640 environment here on planet earth 1186 00:44:15,510 --> 00:44:13,920 that's one example of a number of 1187 00:44:17,990 --> 00:44:15,520 different things the rigors of space 1188 00:44:19,670 --> 00:44:18,000 travel may present in terms of issues we 1189 00:44:21,430 --> 00:44:19,680 would face trying to become a space 1190 00:44:22,630 --> 00:44:21,440 faring civilization ourselves so as a 1191 00:44:23,910 --> 00:44:22,640 hypothetical 1192 00:44:25,349 --> 00:44:23,920 with that book and i didn't want it to 1193 00:44:26,710 --> 00:44:25,359 be called the ufo singularity i've 1194 00:44:29,030 --> 00:44:26,720 talked about this many times my 1195 00:44:30,150 --> 00:44:29,040 wonderful publishers and i mean that in 1196 00:44:31,910 --> 00:44:30,160 in true love because they're wonderful 1197 00:44:33,349 --> 00:44:31,920 people and i'm friends with them but you 1198 00:44:34,950 --> 00:44:33,359 know publishers do tend to pick out the 1199 00:44:37,910 --> 00:44:34,960 titles of books and they wanted ufo in 1200 00:44:39,510 --> 00:44:37,920 the title therefore many interpreted the 1201 00:44:42,550 --> 00:44:39,520 meaning of that book as being this is 1202 00:44:45,270 --> 00:44:42,560 what micah hanks believes or if i didn't 1203 00:44:47,430 --> 00:44:45,280 seem to state it as belief that ufos are 1204 00:44:49,589 --> 00:44:47,440 some roboticized intelligence that has 1205 00:44:51,750 --> 00:44:49,599 augmented itself perhaps post 1206 00:44:54,230 --> 00:44:51,760 biologically which is why the book was 1207 00:44:56,150 --> 00:44:54,240 called ufo singularity it did bring into 1208 00:44:58,230 --> 00:44:56,160 the discussion artificial intelligence 1209 00:45:01,510 --> 00:44:58,240 and transhumanism these seem like 1210 00:45:03,910 --> 00:45:01,520 logical things that would probably befit 1211 00:45:06,069 --> 00:45:03,920 an advanced civilization in order for 1212 00:45:08,550 --> 00:45:06,079 them to be able to become uh 1213 00:45:09,270 --> 00:45:08,560 interstellarly mobile we'll say 1214 00:45:10,710 --> 00:45:09,280 but again you know these are 1215 00:45:12,630 --> 00:45:10,720 hypotheticals and i think it's fair to 1216 00:45:14,309 --> 00:45:12,640 be able to talk about hypotheticals and 1217 00:45:15,910 --> 00:45:14,319 look at the likelies versus the more 1218 00:45:17,190 --> 00:45:15,920 unlikely and still have a fair 1219 00:45:18,630 --> 00:45:17,200 discussion i'm glad we're having this 1220 00:45:20,630 --> 00:45:18,640 discussion but i just want to point out 1221 00:45:22,230 --> 00:45:20,640 that as much as i in my own book whereas 1222 00:45:24,390 --> 00:45:22,240 randall discusses these things you know 1223 00:45:26,230 --> 00:45:24,400 or is sue brings certain points to the 1224 00:45:27,270 --> 00:45:26,240 table here uh or even gene for that 1225 00:45:28,870 --> 00:45:27,280 matter i mean we can have that 1226 00:45:30,470 --> 00:45:28,880 discussion without saying this is what 1227 00:45:32,550 --> 00:45:30,480 we believe i'm sure someone will listen 1228 00:45:34,150 --> 00:45:32,560 to this roundtable discussion at some 1229 00:45:35,829 --> 00:45:34,160 point and say well you know randall 1230 00:45:37,670 --> 00:45:35,839 seems to believe this or sue seemed to 1231 00:45:38,790 --> 00:45:37,680 think that it's important to have this 1232 00:45:40,790 --> 00:45:38,800 discussion and look at these 1233 00:45:43,430 --> 00:45:40,800 possibilities outside of what the most 1234 00:45:45,109 --> 00:45:43,440 logical primaries may be and i think 1235 00:45:47,190 --> 00:45:45,119 that that's great that you bring up time 1236 00:45:48,710 --> 00:45:47,200 travel in that context because yeah 1237 00:45:50,790 --> 00:45:48,720 while it does seem to be a generic 1238 00:45:53,270 --> 00:45:50,800 feature of relativity and it does seem 1239 00:45:55,430 --> 00:45:53,280 to be consistent with relativistic views 1240 00:45:57,990 --> 00:45:55,440 on physics it does not seem likely that 1241 00:46:00,790 --> 00:45:58,000 is it is something that at least in any 1242 00:46:01,670 --> 00:46:00,800 any future sense that we might all live 1243 00:46:03,430 --> 00:46:01,680 to see 1244 00:46:05,750 --> 00:46:03,440 that will become something that is a 1245 00:46:07,510 --> 00:46:05,760 actual reality i.e time travelers from 1246 00:46:09,750 --> 00:46:07,520 the future and many argue we haven't 1247 00:46:11,510 --> 00:46:09,760 seen any evidence of them either unless 1248 00:46:14,150 --> 00:46:11,520 of course and even carl sagan pointed 1249 00:46:16,150 --> 00:46:14,160 this out we have mistaken some phenomena 1250 00:46:18,069 --> 00:46:16,160 for being something else rather than 1251 00:46:19,910 --> 00:46:18,079 that and he had even said at times 1252 00:46:21,829 --> 00:46:19,920 perhaps ufos ghosts something along 1253 00:46:23,910 --> 00:46:21,839 those lines could be that evidence of 1254 00:46:25,589 --> 00:46:23,920 the time travelers we have mistaken it 1255 00:46:27,030 --> 00:46:25,599 as being something else who knows i 1256 00:46:28,470 --> 00:46:27,040 think it's fair to be open-minded about 1257 00:46:29,750 --> 00:46:28,480 these kind of things and sure have the 1258 00:46:31,750 --> 00:46:29,760 discussion 1259 00:46:34,230 --> 00:46:31,760 yeah exploring the possibilities is what 1260 00:46:35,750 --> 00:46:34,240 makes ufos fun 1261 00:46:38,550 --> 00:46:35,760 absolutely 1262 00:46:41,270 --> 00:46:38,560 and great points micah well thank you i 1263 00:46:42,710 --> 00:46:41,280 certainly don't know for sure myself 1264 00:46:45,030 --> 00:46:42,720 where they come from 1265 00:46:47,109 --> 00:46:45,040 but i certainly do believe they're here 1266 00:46:48,069 --> 00:46:47,119 or at least have been here in the recent 1267 00:46:51,670 --> 00:46:48,079 future 1268 00:46:55,910 --> 00:46:53,750 i i also want to say one theory that 1269 00:46:57,750 --> 00:46:55,920 hasn't reached the table first and sue 1270 00:46:59,430 --> 00:46:57,760 maybe we'll go to you first on this one 1271 00:47:01,990 --> 00:46:59,440 walter bosley recently appeared on the 1272 00:47:03,829 --> 00:47:02,000 pericast here and he was discussing and 1273 00:47:06,630 --> 00:47:03,839 he's often said the same thing hey i 1274 00:47:08,630 --> 00:47:06,640 like to put hypotheticals on the table 1275 00:47:10,630 --> 00:47:08,640 people are constantly nitpicking over he 1276 00:47:12,950 --> 00:47:10,640 says being able to express different 1277 00:47:14,630 --> 00:47:12,960 ideas sometimes those which sure may 1278 00:47:16,470 --> 00:47:14,640 fall outside the general discussion of 1279 00:47:18,069 --> 00:47:16,480 modern science it's fun to be able to 1280 00:47:19,589 --> 00:47:18,079 have these conversations so let's have 1281 00:47:21,670 --> 00:47:19,599 them and one thing that he's brought to 1282 00:47:24,390 --> 00:47:21,680 the table as far as his own 1283 00:47:26,390 --> 00:47:24,400 interests is this idea of some sort of a 1284 00:47:29,030 --> 00:47:26,400 indigenous civilization a crypto 1285 00:47:31,510 --> 00:47:29,040 terrestrial civilization or maybe a 1286 00:47:33,510 --> 00:47:31,520 breakaway civilization and how this has 1287 00:47:35,510 --> 00:47:33,520 something to do with the ufo phenomena 1288 00:47:36,790 --> 00:47:35,520 sue or randall or both what are your 1289 00:47:38,390 --> 00:47:36,800 thoughts about this 1290 00:47:40,950 --> 00:47:38,400 breakaway civilization 1291 00:47:43,670 --> 00:47:40,960 is a really new idea to me i don't know 1292 00:47:46,550 --> 00:47:43,680 how comfortable i am with it i haven't 1293 00:47:49,109 --> 00:47:46,560 read much or listened to much so i can't 1294 00:47:51,270 --> 00:47:49,119 really do it justice i think my initial 1295 00:47:53,510 --> 00:47:51,280 reaction would be to say that it's good 1296 00:47:56,390 --> 00:47:53,520 to be open-minded about 1297 00:47:58,630 --> 00:47:56,400 another order of existence out there 1298 00:48:01,030 --> 00:47:58,640 that is separate from what we think of 1299 00:48:03,670 --> 00:48:01,040 as the way things must be 1300 00:48:05,910 --> 00:48:03,680 and i always enjoy walter bosley's stuff 1301 00:48:08,150 --> 00:48:05,920 because he comes up with such crazy 1302 00:48:10,790 --> 00:48:08,160 ideas and he makes such good arguments 1303 00:48:13,750 --> 00:48:10,800 for them it's it's a lot of fun to read 1304 00:48:15,990 --> 00:48:13,760 yeah sure it is fun and bosley's an 1305 00:48:18,630 --> 00:48:16,000 interesting character but i don't buy 1306 00:48:20,390 --> 00:48:18,640 into the breakaway civilization thing 1307 00:48:22,710 --> 00:48:20,400 although there have been some people 1308 00:48:25,670 --> 00:48:22,720 who've looked at it not so much as a 1309 00:48:27,109 --> 00:48:25,680 separate civilization say living on an 1310 00:48:28,549 --> 00:48:27,119 island someplace that we haven't 1311 00:48:30,470 --> 00:48:28,559 discovered yet but 1312 00:48:32,710 --> 00:48:30,480 actually mixed in 1313 00:48:35,030 --> 00:48:32,720 within our own society in ways that 1314 00:48:36,549 --> 00:48:35,040 we're not immediately aware of through 1315 00:48:38,309 --> 00:48:36,559 secrecy and 1316 00:48:39,750 --> 00:48:38,319 corporate and government projects and 1317 00:48:41,349 --> 00:48:39,760 that sort of thing 1318 00:48:43,510 --> 00:48:41,359 but i think those it's important to 1319 00:48:45,270 --> 00:48:43,520 separate those two ideas 1320 00:48:47,109 --> 00:48:45,280 in either case i don't think there's 1321 00:48:49,589 --> 00:48:47,119 enough evidence for it simply because 1322 00:48:52,069 --> 00:48:49,599 the technology that the ufos have 1323 00:48:53,510 --> 00:48:52,079 demonstrated is just so far beyond 1324 00:48:56,069 --> 00:48:53,520 anything that 1325 00:48:58,470 --> 00:48:56,079 we've developed ourselves even since the 1326 00:49:00,549 --> 00:48:58,480 beginning of flight that would mean that 1327 00:49:02,309 --> 00:49:00,559 wherever they come from if they come 1328 00:49:03,990 --> 00:49:02,319 from earth they must have come from some 1329 00:49:05,990 --> 00:49:04,000 distant past and there's not enough 1330 00:49:08,630 --> 00:49:06,000 archaeological evidence to support that 1331 00:49:10,870 --> 00:49:08,640 either it would require a large 1332 00:49:13,349 --> 00:49:10,880 civilization and a lot of infrastructure 1333 00:49:14,790 --> 00:49:13,359 and there just simply isn't any evidence 1334 00:49:16,630 --> 00:49:14,800 of it so 1335 00:49:18,549 --> 00:49:16,640 the ancient aliens 1336 00:49:20,549 --> 00:49:18,559 i'm sorry to have to say for those who 1337 00:49:22,549 --> 00:49:20,559 are listening go on to youtube and look 1338 00:49:25,910 --> 00:49:22,559 up a video called ancient aliens 1339 00:49:28,230 --> 00:49:25,920 debunked and it is really good counter 1340 00:49:30,630 --> 00:49:28,240 to the ancient aliens hypothesis it's 1341 00:49:32,069 --> 00:49:30,640 very sensible and scientific and anyone 1342 00:49:34,309 --> 00:49:32,079 who believes in the ancient aliens 1343 00:49:36,790 --> 00:49:34,319 hypothesis should have a look at that 1344 00:49:38,470 --> 00:49:36,800 yeah i often get a lot of flack for 1345 00:49:40,470 --> 00:49:38,480 being so dismissive of the ancient alien 1346 00:49:42,309 --> 00:49:40,480 hypothesis when asked to come on that 1347 00:49:44,470 --> 00:49:42,319 program the first question of course you 1348 00:49:46,069 --> 00:49:44,480 were typically asked by the producers is 1349 00:49:48,069 --> 00:49:46,079 uh are you an advocate of the ancient 1350 00:49:49,750 --> 00:49:48,079 alien hypothesis and so when asked that 1351 00:49:51,589 --> 00:49:49,760 question myself of course my response 1352 00:49:53,270 --> 00:49:51,599 was well no but i think i could offer 1353 00:49:54,870 --> 00:49:53,280 some good skeptical positions on that 1354 00:49:56,630 --> 00:49:54,880 and of course i wasn't invited back to 1355 00:49:58,790 --> 00:49:56,640 be on the show but the producers and i 1356 00:50:01,109 --> 00:49:58,800 had a nice conversation nonetheless 1357 00:50:03,270 --> 00:50:01,119 i'll say that if we were to redefine 1358 00:50:04,790 --> 00:50:03,280 breakaway civilization and put it in a 1359 00:50:06,710 --> 00:50:04,800 slightly different context once again 1360 00:50:08,470 --> 00:50:06,720 much like ufos perhaps the problem is we 1361 00:50:09,990 --> 00:50:08,480 don't have a real consensus idea of what 1362 00:50:11,190 --> 00:50:10,000 exactly we mean when we say that when 1363 00:50:12,470 --> 00:50:11,200 richard dolan 1364 00:50:14,309 --> 00:50:12,480 brought that idea 1365 00:50:15,910 --> 00:50:14,319 into the dialogue a few years ago he 1366 00:50:17,430 --> 00:50:15,920 said i just put it out as just again a 1367 00:50:18,309 --> 00:50:17,440 hypothetical i had no idea that there 1368 00:50:19,670 --> 00:50:18,319 would be 1369 00:50:20,870 --> 00:50:19,680 conferences that were built around it 1370 00:50:22,630 --> 00:50:20,880 and other authors would take up the 1371 00:50:24,230 --> 00:50:22,640 mantle and write books about it and he 1372 00:50:25,750 --> 00:50:24,240 says and i don't necessarily endorse the 1373 00:50:27,430 --> 00:50:25,760 idea but what if a breakaway 1374 00:50:29,510 --> 00:50:27,440 civilization rather than being something 1375 00:50:31,510 --> 00:50:29,520 ancient which i agree randall seems far 1376 00:50:33,589 --> 00:50:31,520 from likely to me what if it were a 1377 00:50:35,829 --> 00:50:33,599 technological presence within our 1378 00:50:39,190 --> 00:50:35,839 existing international political 1379 00:50:41,349 --> 00:50:39,200 economic intel a technological sphere 1380 00:50:43,190 --> 00:50:41,359 something that is kept off the books but 1381 00:50:44,870 --> 00:50:43,200 once again is representative of an 1382 00:50:47,030 --> 00:50:44,880 element within 1383 00:50:49,750 --> 00:50:47,040 earth civilization today that is moving 1384 00:50:52,710 --> 00:50:49,760 apart from an undercover secrecy many 1385 00:50:54,549 --> 00:50:52,720 think that that is entirely unlikely but 1386 00:50:57,430 --> 00:50:54,559 i would say it must be at least as 1387 00:51:00,069 --> 00:50:57,440 plausible as the idea of et visitation 1388 00:51:01,990 --> 00:51:00,079 to earth it would seem unusual that such 1389 00:51:03,430 --> 00:51:02,000 things would be kept from the public but 1390 00:51:05,589 --> 00:51:03,440 once again this brings us back to the 1391 00:51:06,950 --> 00:51:05,599 discussion of innumerable things that 1392 00:51:09,510 --> 00:51:06,960 have been kept from public knowledge 1393 00:51:11,510 --> 00:51:09,520 think about mk ultra they had hoped the 1394 00:51:13,030 --> 00:51:11,520 cia that the documents that actually 1395 00:51:15,109 --> 00:51:13,040 detailed the atrocities that occurred 1396 00:51:17,030 --> 00:51:15,119 the illegal activities they had hoped 1397 00:51:19,190 --> 00:51:17,040 that they would be destroyed before they 1398 00:51:21,030 --> 00:51:19,200 could actually be released to the public 1399 00:51:23,349 --> 00:51:21,040 a few of the documents were not and made 1400 00:51:25,190 --> 00:51:23,359 it to the congressional uh review that 1401 00:51:27,270 --> 00:51:25,200 occurred a few years later and that's 1402 00:51:29,270 --> 00:51:27,280 how we even know about it and yes and so 1403 00:51:31,910 --> 00:51:29,280 that discourse has at very least been 1404 00:51:34,150 --> 00:51:31,920 kept mostly off the record 1405 00:51:36,390 --> 00:51:34,160 our guest co-host is micah hanks we have 1406 00:51:38,150 --> 00:51:36,400 ufology ensue as part of our listener 1407

00:52:12,069 --> 00:52:09,520 officer is haunted by intense dreams 1418 00:52:14,470 --> 00:52:12,079 about a beautiful woman pleading for his 1419 00:52:15,510 --> 00:52:14,480 help after a terrible battle in outer 1420 00:52:17,670 --> 00:52:15,520 space 1421 00:52:19,670 --> 00:52:17,680 but the dreams turn out to be true and 1422 00:52:22,390 --> 00:52:19,680 thrust him into a telepathic love

00:54:28,870 --> 00:54:27,280 intelligence 1470 00:54:30,950 --> 00:54:28,880 it's the nanites 1471 00:54:34,710 --> 00:54:30,960 is that what it is yep 1472 00:54:39,829 --> 00:54:37,589 as they say nano nano 1473 00:54:41,670 --> 00:54:39,839 that was morgan mindy right 1474 00:54:43,910 --> 00:54:41,680 yes it was 1475 00:54:46,390 --> 00:54:43,920 and originally they hired robin williams 1476 00:54:47,750 --> 00:54:46,400 to do a segment of happy days 1477 00:54:49,270 --> 00:54:47,760 i don't know how much of that he 1478 00:54:51,430 --> 00:54:49,280 improvised and how much of that was 1479 00:54:53,349 --> 00:54:51,440 written in script the other thing about 1480 00:54:56,390 --> 00:54:53,359 it though is that when they went to the 1481 00:54:58,390 --> 00:54:56,400 tv series i always thought it was 1482 00:54:59,990 --> 00:54:58,400 kind of distilled 1483 00:55:01,349 --> 00:55:00,000 it wasn't quite as 1484 00:55:03,910 --> 00:55:01,359 hard-hitting 1485 00:55:06,230 --> 00:55:03,920 or spontaneous perhaps probably because 1486 00:55:07,829 --> 00:55:06,240 you have a 30-minute thing yeah i never 1487 00:55:08,870 --> 00:55:07,839 watched it much actually yeah i didn't 1488 00:55:10,230 --> 00:55:08,880 either 1489 00:55:11,990 --> 00:55:10,240 well i guess i'll have to be the only 1490 00:55:13,990 --> 00:55:12,000 representative late night tv junkie when 1491 00:55:16,470 --> 00:55:14,000 i was a kid growing up nick at night was 1492 00:55:18,470 --> 00:55:16,480 my thing i watched bewitched i dream of 1493 00:55:19,829 --> 00:55:18,480 jeannie the monsters 1494 00:55:21,109 --> 00:55:19,839 all these kind of shows i loved those 1495 00:55:22,870 --> 00:55:21,119 shows when i was a kid these days i 1496 00:55:24,309 --> 00:55:22,880 don't watch as much tv and people always 1497 00:55:26,230 --> 00:55:24,319 laugh and say mikey your favorite show 1498 00:55:27,829 --> 00:55:26,240 must be the x-files right 1499 00:55:29,270 --> 00:55:27,839 and in truth i think i've probably 1500 00:55:30,710 --> 00:55:29,280 watched about three episodes of the 1501 00:55:32,630 --> 00:55:30,720 x-files it's one of those shows i could 1502 00:55:34,470 --> 00:55:32,640 never really get into i'll tell you 1503 00:55:38,309 --> 00:55:34,480 something about the x-files they had a 1504 00:55:40,230 --> 00:55:38,319 six-episode reboot where they come back 1505 00:55:42,390 --> 00:55:40,240 the original characters and they go 1506 00:55:44,549 --> 00:55:42,400 through six stories that supposedly 1507 00:55:45,910 --> 00:55:44,559 echoed the kind of stories they ran as 1508 00:55:47,910 --> 00:55:45,920 part of the original series and the 1509 00:55:50,870 --> 00:55:47,920 ratings are pretty decent you know the 1510 00:55:53,270 --> 00:55:50,880 average tv ratings for a network show is 1511 00:55:54,150 --> 00:55:53,280 much less today than it was 10 15 years 1512 00:55:56,309 --> 00:55:54,160 ago 1513 00:55:59,030 --> 00:55:56,319 and they might do more in a year or two 1514 00:56:01,349 --> 00:55:59,040 but it left off with a cliffhanger with 1515 00:56:03,270 --> 00:56:01,359 no indication they'd ever do it again 1516 00:56:05,589 --> 00:56:03,280 and i think that was kind of unfortunate 1517 00:56:07,589 --> 00:56:05,599 but the thing they did though which 1518 00:56:08,950 --> 00:56:07,599 might be interesting 1519 00:56:10,950 --> 00:56:08,960 is that 1520 00:56:13,990 --> 00:56:10,960 they changed the 1521 00:56:15,109 --> 00:56:14,000 conspiracy before it was e.t doing 1522 00:56:17,430 --> 00:56:15,119 everything 1523 00:56:20,390 --> 00:56:17,440 now it was the government taking 1524 00:56:21,270 --> 00:56:20,400 technology from roswell 1525 00:56:24,470 --> 00:56:21,280 and 1526 00:56:26,069 --> 00:56:24,480 engaging in these conspiratorial acts 1527 00:56:28,390 --> 00:56:26,079 right and that brings us back to what 1528 00:56:30,630 --> 00:56:28,400 mica was talking about in the sort of 1529 00:56:33,270 --> 00:56:30,640 breakaway civilization thing 1530 00:56:34,390 --> 00:56:33,280 and how we look at what the word ufo 1531 00:56:36,470 --> 00:56:34,400 means and 1532 00:56:39,109 --> 00:56:36,480 we at usi we 1533 00:56:42,230 --> 00:56:39,119 consider a ufo to be a craft of alien 1534 00:56:45,190 --> 00:56:42,240 origin well a breakaway civilization 1535 00:56:48,230 --> 00:56:45,200 that is secret from the rest of society 1536 00:56:50,710 --> 00:56:48,240 i think a pretty good case could be made 1537 00:56:53,510 --> 00:56:50,720 to say that yes that is alien to the 1538 00:56:56,230 --> 00:56:53,520 rest of us we don't know about it it's 1539 00:56:58,390 --> 00:56:56,240 from outside the constructs of our 1540 00:57:00,230 --> 00:56:58,400 normal everyday existence and 1541 00:57:02,950 --> 00:57:00,240 in this case it must be outside the 1542 00:57:05,510 --> 00:57:02,960 constructs of even most political 1543 00:57:08,630 --> 00:57:05,520 constructs so i i think it would be fair 1544 00:57:10,309 --> 00:57:08,640 to say that some ufos could be from one 1545 00:57:12,630 --> 00:57:10,319 of these types of 1546 00:57:14,710 --> 00:57:12,640 breakaway civilizations but i don't 1547 00:57:17,109 --> 00:57:14,720 think that covers it all because like 1548 00:57:19,109 --> 00:57:17,119 you're saying there in x-files episode 1549 00:57:22,230 --> 00:57:19,119 they're taking technology that was 1550 00:57:24,309 --> 00:57:22,240 recovered from roswell so it still 1551 00:57:26,150 --> 00:57:24,319 seems to me that even in the reality of 1552 00:57:29,109 --> 00:57:26,160 the thing we're looking at technology 1553 00:57:31,430 --> 00:57:29,119 that is so far beyond what we had back 1554 00:57:33,829 --> 00:57:31,440 in the 50s and 60s and even today for 1555 00:57:35,910 --> 00:57:33,839 that matter that it doesn't seem 1556 00:57:37,829 --> 00:57:35,920 possible that it actually 1557 00:57:38,950 --> 00:57:37,839 is something that we came up with 1558 00:57:40,950 --> 00:57:38,960 ourselves 1559 00:57:42,950 --> 00:57:40,960 you know to that point i would like to 1560 00:57:44,150 --> 00:57:42,960 just really quickly add something and 1561 00:57:46,069 --> 00:57:44,160 then this is just a this is just a 1562 00:57:47,510 --> 00:57:46,079 comparison but but you know let's put 1563 00:57:49,030 --> 00:57:47,520 this on the table when we look at the 1564 00:57:51,430 --> 00:57:49,040 ancient alien hypothesis one of the 1565 00:57:53,670 --> 00:57:51,440 gripes many people have is that well we 1566 00:57:55,589 --> 00:57:53,680 suppose that ancient people could not 1567 00:57:57,589 --> 00:57:55,599 have created a technology like this you 1568 00:57:59,270 --> 00:57:57,599 know to build for instance monuments 1569 00:58:01,589 --> 00:57:59,280 like the pyramids the the great wonders 1570 00:58:03,829 --> 00:58:01,599 of the ancient world uh when we assert 1571 00:58:06,470 --> 00:58:03,839 that aliens had to assist humans we 1572 00:58:08,549 --> 00:58:06,480 undermine human ingenuity now maybe this 1573 00:58:11,109 --> 00:58:08,559 isn't exactly the case but 1574 00:58:13,190 --> 00:58:11,119 would it be fair to ask that to assume 1575 00:58:15,190 --> 00:58:13,200 that for a breakaway civilization to 1576 00:58:17,030 --> 00:58:15,200 exist and to have such technology that 1577 00:58:19,349 --> 00:58:17,040 they had to borrow it from aliens is 1578 00:58:21,030 --> 00:58:19,359 that in the same way maybe rather than 1579 00:58:22,710 --> 00:58:21,040 undermining because i think that has you 1580 00:58:24,549 --> 00:58:22,720 know kind of negative connotations but 1581 00:58:26,630 --> 00:58:24,559 let's say to presume that we had to 1582 00:58:28,789 --> 00:58:26,640 reverse engineer alien craft in order to 1583 00:58:31,829 --> 00:58:28,799 have this technology does that uh once 1584 00:58:33,109 --> 00:58:31,839 again attribute to an unexplainable what 1585 00:58:35,270 --> 00:58:33,119 very well may be something that 1586 00:58:37,430 --> 00:58:35,280 somewhere humans did of their own accord 1587 00:58:38,549 --> 00:58:37,440 with their own intelligence develop i 1588 00:58:40,230 --> 00:58:38,559 mean just looking at that from a 1589 00:58:42,710 --> 00:58:40,240 different angle and playing devil's 1590 00:58:44,950 --> 00:58:42,720 advocate oh absolutely micah i think 1591 00:58:46,630 --> 00:58:44,960 you're correct with that i think quite a 1592 00:58:49,589 --> 00:58:46,640 few the claims that corso makes for 1593 00:58:52,630 --> 00:58:49,599 example were legitimate human scientific 1594 00:58:54,549 --> 00:58:52,640 breakthroughs transistors and so on 1595 00:58:55,990 --> 00:58:54,559 and micro circuits and that sort of 1596 00:58:59,109 --> 00:58:56,000 thing but 1597 00:59:01,349 --> 00:58:59,119 none of those things still explain how a 1598 00:59:03,349 --> 00:59:01,359 craft can be tracked on radar and 1599 00:59:05,430 --> 00:59:03,359 followed by a jet and then have it come 1600 00:59:06,630 --> 00:59:05,440 to an instant stop and then change 1601 00:59:10,069 --> 00:59:06,640 direction 1602 00:59:12,630 --> 00:59:10,079 pretty much instantly and zoom off at uh 1603 00:59:14,630 --> 00:59:12,640 in 20 000 miles an hour it there's 1604 00:59:15,510 --> 00:59:14,640 nothing that we've got that can do that 1605 00:59:18,950 --> 00:59:15,520 yet 1606 00:59:22,390 --> 00:59:18,960 let alone back in the 50s so here's my 1607 00:59:24,549 --> 00:59:22,400 problem with breakaway technology as 1608 00:59:27,510 --> 00:59:24,559 opposed to breakaway civilization which 1609 00:59:30,789 --> 00:59:27,520 i can kind of handle that idea 1610 00:59:34,390 --> 00:59:30,799 breakaway technology i just i'm not sure 1611 00:59:37,430 --> 00:59:34,400 you can hide a whole technology 1612 00:59:39,349 --> 00:59:37,440 and this is like a kind of uninformed 1613 00:59:41,510 --> 00:59:39,359 opinion but i'm 1614 00:59:43,670 --> 00:59:41,520 reasoning from the parallel fact that 1615 00:59:46,309 --> 00:59:43,680 the technology we have in our society 1616 00:59:48,710 --> 00:59:46,319 has such a massive environmental impact 1617 00:59:51,109 --> 00:59:48,720 if you have a hidden secret breakaway 1618 00:59:52,710 --> 00:59:51,119 technology wouldn't you at least see 1619 00:59:55,190 --> 00:59:52,720 some kinds of 1620 00:59:57,910 --> 00:59:55,200 environmental impacts or other trace 1621 00:59:59,829 --> 00:59:57,920 evidence of its existence that's where i 1622 01:00:01,030 --> 00:59:59,839 have problems with the whole breakaway 1623 01:00:02,870 --> 01:00:01,040 idea 1624 01:00:05,670 --> 01:00:02,880 yeah yeah but we both agree that's a 1625 01:00:08,789 --> 01:00:05,680 great point and and um 1626 01:00:10,470 --> 01:00:08,799 someone else i mean just to add to that 1627 01:00:12,710 --> 01:00:10,480 i think someone else would have come up 1628 01:00:13,750 --> 01:00:12,720 with it by now if it was 1629 01:00:17,589 --> 01:00:13,760 that 1630 01:00:19,670 --> 01:00:17,599 technology 1631 01:00:23,030 --> 01:00:19,680 it wouldn't be only the military that's 1632 01:00:24,950 --> 01:00:23,040 had it since the 50s someone else 1633 01:00:27,109 --> 01:00:24,960 would have invented it and made it and 1634 01:00:30,069 --> 01:00:27,119 we'd be seeing it in pretty much 1635 01:00:32,230 --> 01:00:30,079 everyday use somewhere but we don't 1636 01:00:33,910 --> 01:00:32,240 it's it's a very strange 1637 01:00:35,109 --> 01:00:33,920 discussion when we really start breaking 1638 01:00:37,510 --> 01:00:35,119 all this down i like what we're all 1639 01:00:39,510 --> 01:00:37,520 doing here because we are kind of taking 1640 01:00:42,150 --> 01:00:39,520 uh each individual 1641 01:00:44,630 --> 01:00:42,160 hypothetical as related to ufos and 1642 01:00:46,150 --> 01:00:44,640 saying what seems most likely many ufo 1643 01:00:47,510 --> 01:00:46,160 skeptics i know robert shaffer he's been 1644 01:00:50,069 --> 01:00:47,520 a guest on the show and i correspond 1645 01:00:53,109 --> 01:00:50,079 with bob from time to time um 1646 01:00:55,030 --> 01:00:53,119 bob has taken issue uh with one of the 1647 01:00:57,589 --> 01:00:55,040 facts that i presented i'm sorry not a 1648 01:00:59,030 --> 01:00:57,599 fact but a an idea which had been that 1649 01:01:01,910 --> 01:00:59,040 hey some of these things very well may 1650 01:01:03,109 --> 01:01:01,920 be some government technology bob uh 1651 01:01:04,950 --> 01:01:03,119 took issue with that and had said you 1652 01:01:06,710 --> 01:01:04,960 know i think that if that were the case 1653 01:01:08,390 --> 01:01:06,720 there would be either release of that 1654 01:01:10,870 --> 01:01:08,400 information already or there should be 1655 01:01:12,789 --> 01:01:10,880 some other evidence that that technology 1656 01:01:15,270 --> 01:01:12,799 exists which comes back to what uh sue 1657 01:01:17,270 --> 01:01:15,280 was saying but you know so i said 1658 01:01:20,390 --> 01:01:17,280 can we account for there being some 1659 01:01:22,549 --> 01:01:20,400 other explanation for ufos uh again the 1660 01:01:24,950 --> 01:01:22,559 hard-line skeptical stance is generally 1661 01:01:26,549 --> 01:01:24,960 today that um well these are all 1662 01:01:27,829 --> 01:01:26,559 misidentifications 1663 01:01:29,510 --> 01:01:27,839 these are people who may suffer from 1664 01:01:31,750 --> 01:01:29,520 delusions and fantasies and let's be 1665 01:01:33,990 --> 01:01:31,760 fair alan hendry who worked for this uh 1666 01:01:35,510 --> 01:01:34,000 center for ufo studies under jay allen 1667 01:01:37,750 --> 01:01:35,520 heineken wrote a fabulous book back in 1668 01:01:39,109 --> 01:01:37,760 the late 70s called the ufo handbook he 1669 01:01:40,630 --> 01:01:39,119 very fairly explored all those 1670 01:01:43,270 --> 01:01:40,640 possibilities too yes there are 1671 01:01:45,190 --> 01:01:43,280 confabulations delusions fantasies and 1672 01:01:47,589 --> 01:01:45,200 things like this misidentifications and 1673 01:01:48,789 --> 01:01:47,599 certain natural phenomena gene i've got 1674 01:01:50,950 --> 01:01:48,799 an interesting update about the brown 1675 01:01:52,069 --> 01:01:50,960 mountain lights here in a second but uh 1676 01:01:54,150 --> 01:01:52,079 but you know again when we look at all 1677 01:01:56,630 --> 01:01:54,160 these different possible variables what 1678 01:01:59,270 --> 01:01:56,640 we have to accept at some point is what 1679 01:02:01,190 --> 01:01:59,280 is most likely uh which again coming 1680 01:02:03,030 --> 01:02:01,200 back to what randall's kind of driven 1681 01:02:05,190 --> 01:02:03,040 throughout the uh discussion that it 1682 01:02:06,630 --> 01:02:05,200 seems that there is some technology that 1683 01:02:09,589 --> 01:02:06,640 doesn't seem to be accountable easily 1684 01:02:12,390 --> 01:02:09,599 with earthly known technologies 1685 01:02:14,549 --> 01:02:12,400 and yet which also seems to be present 1686 01:02:16,549 --> 01:02:14,559 enough that we can account for the 1687 01:02:18,230 --> 01:02:16,559 existence of something very physical 1688 01:02:20,309 --> 01:02:18,240 intangible here on earth that is 1689 01:02:22,950 --> 01:02:20,319 observed but that is advanced enough 1690 01:02:24,789 --> 01:02:22,960 that it is also difficult to observe and 1691 01:02:26,230 --> 01:02:24,799 thereby explain so 1692 01:02:27,430 --> 01:02:26,240 it's really interesting when we kind of 1693 01:02:29,349 --> 01:02:27,440 circle around and look at all these 1694 01:02:31,910 --> 01:02:29,359 different hypotheticals because while 1695 01:02:33,270 --> 01:02:31,920 each may still have some validity we do 1696 01:02:34,789 --> 01:02:33,280 begin to see that there are certain 1697 01:02:36,309 --> 01:02:34,799 trends that emerge in terms of what is 1698 01:02:37,670 --> 01:02:36,319 most likely 1699 01:02:39,109 --> 01:02:37,680 i guess again i'm comfortable with 1700 01:02:41,750 --> 01:02:39,119 saying that there is seemingly something 1701 01:02:44,390 --> 01:02:41,760 very exotic about the ufo phenomena and 1702 01:02:45,990 --> 01:02:44,400 whatever that is remains extremely 1703 01:02:47,670 --> 01:02:46,000 extremely 1704 01:02:50,390 --> 01:02:47,680 strange to me and i think that's what 1705 01:02:51,990 --> 01:02:50,400 keeps us all so interested in this 1706 01:02:53,190 --> 01:02:52,000 i want to hear about this brown mountain 1707 01:02:54,789 --> 01:02:53,200 light update 1708 01:02:56,789 --> 01:02:54,799 let me yeah okay this is interesting 1709 01:02:58,069 --> 01:02:56,799 gene okay yeah let's be brief about this 1710 01:02:59,910 --> 01:02:58,079 we're going to have to break in a moment 1711 01:03:01,589 --> 01:02:59,920 i want to tell everybody about our 1712 01:03:03,510 --> 01:03:01,599 second

01:07:41,440 minuteman rocket stove is a biomass 1828 01:07:45,510 --> 01:07:43,520 burning cooking stove that only requires 1829 01:07:47,670 --> 01:07:45,520 small quantities of sticks and twigs for 1830 01:07:49,270 --> 01:07:47,680 fuel the minuteman stove is easy to use 1831 01:07:51,270 --> 01:07:49,280 smokeless portable powerful and 1832 01:07:53,190 --> 01:07:51,280 sustainable for the finest and survival 1833 01:07:54,789 --> 01:07:53,200 cooking stoves and fire starters made 1834 01:07:56,470 --> 01:07:54,799 right here in the usa go to 1835 01:08:00,789 --> 01:07:56,480 minutemanstove.com that's 1836 01:08:05,510 --> 01:08:03,029 we'd like to hear from you if you have a 1837 01:08:09,109 --> 01:08:05,520 comment or question about the paracast 1838 01:08:12,309 --> 01:08:09,119 send it to news at theparecast.com 1839 01:08:14,150 --> 01:08:12,319 that's news at the paracast.com 1840 01:08:16,630 --> 01:08:14,160 and don't forget to visit our famous 1841

01:08:25,520 tried to be 1845 01:08:29,430 --> 01:08:28,239 inventive about it okay brown mountain 1846 01:08:31,910 --> 01:08:29,440 lights now 1847 01:08:34,149 --> 01:08:31,920 i went to look at that quite a bit of 1848 01:08:37,149 --> 01:08:34,159 time ago i went to look at the brown 1849 01:08:39,910 --> 01:08:37,159 mountain lights back in i think around 1850 01:08:41,269 --> 01:08:39,920 1969 or 1970 1851 01:08:43,510 --> 01:08:41,279 and i saw 1852 01:08:45,590 --> 01:08:43,520 nothing whatever tell us about the 1853 01:08:47,189 --> 01:08:45,600 update micah well you know i've long 1854 01:08:49,749 --> 01:08:47,199 studied the brown mountain lions they 1855 01:08:52,390 --> 01:08:49,759 are a purported illuminative phenomena 1856 01:08:54,789 --> 01:08:52,400 most likely of natural origin that 1857 01:08:56,309 --> 01:08:54,799 exists in actually just outside what's 1858 01:08:58,149 --> 01:08:56,319 called the linville gorge which is a 1859 01:09:00,149 --> 01:08:58,159 protected wilderness area 1860 01:09:01,829 --> 01:09:00,159 here on the eastern coast we we call 1861 01:09:03,269 --> 01:09:01,839 things gorgeous whereas out west it 1862 01:09:04,870 --> 01:09:03,279 would be a canyon but generally it's the 1863 01:09:06,950 --> 01:09:04,880 same sort of thing slightly different 1864 01:09:09,269 --> 01:09:06,960 geological features based on the the 1865 01:09:11,269 --> 01:09:09,279 location and so the linville gorge 1866 01:09:12,709 --> 01:09:11,279 actually is a great big gorge or canyon 1867 01:09:14,630 --> 01:09:12,719 and it's a beautiful spot you can go up 1868 01:09:16,070 --> 01:09:14,640 to what's called wiseman's view and it's 1869 01:09:18,309 --> 01:09:16,080 named after scotty wiseman and his 1870 01:09:19,910 --> 01:09:18,319 family he wrote a famous song that 1871 01:09:21,189 --> 01:09:19,920 bluegrass singers to this day still seem 1872 01:09:23,430 --> 01:09:21,199 called the legend of the brown mountain 1873 01:09:25,430 --> 01:09:23,440 light i have performed it myself with my 1874 01:09:26,950 --> 01:09:25,440 group and it's long been said that you 1875 01:09:28,950 --> 01:09:26,960 can go to wiseman's view or other 1876 01:09:30,229 --> 01:09:28,960 lookouts in the area and you can look 1877 01:09:31,910 --> 01:09:30,239 off into the distance and you'll see 1878 01:09:34,550 --> 01:09:31,920 lights sometimes that appear on the side 1879 01:09:36,550 --> 01:09:34,560 of brown mountain now i want to be very 1880 01:09:38,229 --> 01:09:36,560 clear that they don't just appear as 1881 01:09:39,669 --> 01:09:38,239 ground-based illuminations some of these 1882 01:09:41,189 --> 01:09:39,679 apparently rise into the sky just as 1883 01:09:42,950 --> 01:09:41,199 well and we'll get to that in a moment 1884 01:09:44,390 --> 01:09:42,960 but um as a researcher into this 1885 01:09:46,390 --> 01:09:44,400 phenomena i've got a lot of friends who 1886 01:09:48,070 --> 01:09:46,400 are really really steeped in belief and 1887 01:09:49,669 --> 01:09:48,080 think that there's a ufo base under the 1888 01:09:51,189 --> 01:09:49,679 mountain i've got friends who are very 1889 01:09:52,709 --> 01:09:51,199 skeptical and say it's all blue ghost 1890 01:09:53,990 --> 01:09:52,719 fireflies that people are seeing and 1891 01:09:55,350 --> 01:09:54,000 mistaking for being a light in the 1892 01:09:56,790 --> 01:09:55,360 distance and then there are the 1893 01:09:58,310 --> 01:09:56,800 scientists who are a little more 1894 01:10:00,310 --> 01:09:58,320 open-minded about things and i've spent 1895 01:10:01,430 --> 01:10:00,320 a lot of time with some of these guys my 1896 01:10:03,750 --> 01:10:01,440 good friends formerly of bell 1897 01:10:04,790 --> 01:10:03,760 laboratories uh bob ashmore and bill fox 1898 01:10:07,030 --> 01:10:04,800 come down about every year from 1899 01:10:08,790 --> 01:10:07,040 pennsylvania we'll spend time up there 1900 01:10:11,110 --> 01:10:08,800 at the weizmann's view 1901 01:10:12,790 --> 01:10:11,120 observing i'm like gene i've seen very 1902 01:10:14,470 --> 01:10:12,800 little there have been a couple of rare 1903 01:10:15,910 --> 01:10:14,480 exceptions to that bill and bob have 1904 01:10:17,350 --> 01:10:15,920 managed to photograph some interesting 1905 01:10:18,470 --> 01:10:17,360 things that even my more skeptical 1906 01:10:19,590 --> 01:10:18,480 friends in the science community have 1907 01:10:21,430 --> 01:10:19,600 said we don't know what it is but i'm 1908 01:10:23,110 --> 01:10:21,440 sure eventually we will and what it all 1909 01:10:25,590 --> 01:10:23,120 seems to point to is that there are 1910 01:10:27,189 --> 01:10:25,600 illuminative phenomena that occur 1911 01:10:29,669 --> 01:10:27,199 there around the linville gorge and also 1912 01:10:31,430 --> 01:10:29,679 of course on the adjacent brown mountain 1913 01:10:33,189 --> 01:10:31,440 ridge which is popularly associated with 1914 01:10:34,870 --> 01:10:33,199 this phenomena but in addition to the 1915 01:10:37,270 --> 01:10:34,880 field work i'm interested in the 1916 01:10:38,950 --> 01:10:37,280 historical work as well and a lot of us 1917 01:10:40,550 --> 01:10:38,960 here in this region namely my good 1918 01:10:42,470 --> 01:10:40,560 friend ed speer who's a retired 1919 01:10:44,550 --> 01:10:42,480 geologist he's one of my skeptic friends 1920 01:10:46,550 --> 01:10:44,560 who does a lot of this research daniel 1921 01:10:48,390 --> 01:10:46,560 kayton who is a physicist at app state 1922 01:10:49,830 --> 01:10:48,400 university we've been involved both with 1923 01:10:52,390 --> 01:10:49,840 field research and also historical 1924 01:10:53,590 --> 01:10:52,400 research and recently a funny thing 1925 01:10:55,350 --> 01:10:53,600 happened as a matter of fact just 1926 01:10:58,550 --> 01:10:55,360 yesterday when it comes to digging 1927 01:11:00,390 --> 01:10:58,560 through archives microfilm data books 1928 01:11:01,750 --> 01:11:00,400 we've tried to find references to the 1929 01:11:03,990 --> 01:11:01,760 brown mountain lights and things like 1930 01:11:05,189 --> 01:11:04,000 travel logs and things that that seem to 1931 01:11:06,709 --> 01:11:05,199 indicate that there was a phenomena 1932 01:11:08,470 --> 01:11:06,719 before the 20th century and really 1933 01:11:10,630 --> 01:11:08,480 there's very little information that 1934 01:11:13,189 --> 01:11:10,640 does suggest that although there was a 1935 01:11:15,669 --> 01:11:13,199 u.s geological survey expedition that 1936 01:11:17,750 --> 01:11:15,679 was conducted and george r mansfield had 1937 01:11:19,750 --> 01:11:17,760 been the scientist sent down by the usgs 1938 01:11:21,110 --> 01:11:19,760 uh who back in the 1920s did collect 1939 01:11:22,790 --> 01:11:21,120 reports that said people had said that 1940 01:11:25,510 --> 01:11:22,800 they'd seen the lights as early as the 1941 01:11:27,910 --> 01:11:25,520 1860s but that also coincided with the 1942 01:11:29,750 --> 01:11:27,920 appearance of railroads and and trains 1943 01:11:30,870 --> 01:11:29,760 in the region and so his determination 1944 01:11:32,709 --> 01:11:30,880 at the time was that these were the 1945 01:11:33,830 --> 01:11:32,719 oncoming lights of local motives people 1946 01:11:35,510 --> 01:11:33,840 were seeing 1947 01:11:37,110 --> 01:11:35,520 if we really do have objects that go 1948 01:11:38,790 --> 01:11:37,120 into the sky there are a couple of 1949 01:11:40,550 --> 01:11:38,800 interesting points that might be made 1950 01:11:42,070 --> 01:11:40,560 one of them being that if mansfield had 1951 01:11:44,149 --> 01:11:42,080 been looking for a terrestrial source of 1952 01:11:44,950 --> 01:11:44,159 the eliminations he and others over the 1953 01:11:46,790 --> 01:11:44,960 years 1954 01:11:48,709 --> 01:11:46,800 might not have been considering looking 1955 01:11:50,470 --> 01:11:48,719 up and there certainly is data that 1956 01:11:52,709 --> 01:11:50,480 suggests that these eliminations both 1957 01:11:54,950 --> 01:11:52,719 appear on the ground in the distance and 1958 01:11:56,870 --> 01:11:54,960 sometimes rise into the sky as well i've 1959 01:11:58,470 --> 01:11:56,880 found a lot of interesting old photos 1960 01:12:00,709 --> 01:11:58,480 over the years of people who have 1961 01:12:02,790 --> 01:12:00,719 photographed the lights both as 1962 01:12:04,550 --> 01:12:02,800 ground-based illuminations and also in 1963 01:12:06,709 --> 01:12:04,560 one notable instance that comes to mind 1964 01:12:08,550 --> 01:12:06,719 appear to be hovering over a ridgeline 1965 01:12:10,070 --> 01:12:08,560 the photo that comes to mind initially 1966 01:12:11,430 --> 01:12:10,080 is that uh that was taken by bruce 1967 01:12:14,229 --> 01:12:11,440 roberts and appeared in one of nancy 1968 01:12:16,310 --> 01:12:14,239 roberts books on ghosts in the carolinas 1969 01:12:17,669 --> 01:12:16,320 from back in the 1950s her husband had 1970 01:12:19,189 --> 01:12:17,679 taken a photo of the lights and they do 1971 01:12:21,350 --> 01:12:19,199 appear to be hovering over the ridge 1972 01:12:22,790 --> 01:12:21,360 line i found a new photo that i'd never 1973 01:12:25,030 --> 01:12:22,800 seen i'm sure someone has seen this 1974 01:12:26,950 --> 01:12:25,040 eventually but i just found it yesterday 1975 01:12:29,750 --> 01:12:26,960 my grandfather died earlier this year on 1976 01:12:31,110 --> 01:12:29,760 his 101st birthday and he often told me 1977 01:12:32,310 --> 01:12:31,120 he'd listened to late night radio and 1978 01:12:33,910 --> 01:12:32,320 things and had a little bit of an 1979 01:12:36,070 --> 01:12:33,920 interest in the unexplained but i would 1980 01:12:37,910 --> 01:12:36,080 always ask him being a world war ii 1981 01:12:39,110 --> 01:12:37,920 historian what do you think about the 1982 01:12:40,630 --> 01:12:39,120 ghost rockets what do you think about 1983 01:12:42,390 --> 01:12:40,640 foo fighters he'd say very little about 1984 01:12:43,910 --> 01:12:42,400 those kind of things and to my knowledge 1985 01:12:45,270 --> 01:12:43,920 he didn't own any kind of literature 1986 01:12:47,990 --> 01:12:45,280 about strange 1987 01:12:49,669 --> 01:12:48,000 happenings lo and behold we were at 1988 01:12:51,430 --> 01:12:49,679 his house yesterday my mother and my 1989 01:12:52,550 --> 01:12:51,440 aunt my father and i and they had asked 1990 01:12:54,470 --> 01:12:52,560 me to come over and go through some of 1991 01:12:56,550 --> 01:12:54,480 his old books and he has a trove of 1992 01:12:58,709 --> 01:12:56,560 books about world war ii and there was a 1993 01:13:01,189 --> 01:12:58,719 little box that my mother and my my uh 1994 01:13:02,550 --> 01:13:01,199 aunt found and they began going through 1995 01:13:03,669 --> 01:13:02,560 uh the box and seeing what was in there 1996 01:13:05,590 --> 01:13:03,679 and there were a bunch of all newspaper 1997 01:13:07,430 --> 01:13:05,600 clippings and things that were folded up 1998 01:13:08,709 --> 01:13:07,440 and here i have in my hands one of the 1999 01:13:11,110 --> 01:13:08,719 newspapers 2000 01:13:14,470 --> 01:13:11,120 that he had kept and this was from 2001 01:13:15,910 --> 01:13:14,480 sunday july 29 1962 i actually have the 2002 01:13:18,390 --> 01:13:15,920 the actual paper here the asheville 2003 01:13:21,510 --> 01:13:18,400 citizen times this was the front page 2004 01:13:23,110 --> 01:13:21,520 story on that sunday edition in 1962 2005 01:13:24,550 --> 01:13:23,120 brown mountain lights remain a mystery 2006 01:13:26,470 --> 01:13:24,560 to viewers and there's a beautiful 2007 01:13:27,990 --> 01:13:26,480 photograph taken by the author jim 2008 01:13:30,229 --> 01:13:28,000 beatty he was a correspondent for the 2009 01:13:32,149 --> 01:13:30,239 paper at the time and it shows a number 2010 01:13:34,149 --> 01:13:32,159 of lights on the ridge line of brown 2011 01:13:35,910 --> 01:13:34,159 mountain and down in the valley and in 2012 01:13:37,750 --> 01:13:35,920 the distance further beyond you also see 2013 01:13:39,270 --> 01:13:37,760 lightning striking it may not be the 2014 01:13:40,709 --> 01:13:39,280 most remarkable photo of something 2015 01:13:42,790 --> 01:13:40,719 alleged to be the brown mountain lights 2016 01:13:44,790 --> 01:13:42,800 but it was front page news in 1962 and 2017 01:13:46,709 --> 01:13:44,800 i'd never seen this photo before and 2018 01:13:47,830 --> 01:13:46,719 what's interesting about it is that many 2019 01:13:49,830 --> 01:13:47,840 theorize that we're dealing with 2020 01:13:51,189 --> 01:13:49,840 something akin to ball lightning 2021 01:13:53,030 --> 01:13:51,199 happening there at brown mountain and 2022 01:13:55,110 --> 01:13:53,040 sure enough this photo seems to have 2023 01:13:56,470 --> 01:13:55,120 been taken during a thunderstorm and you 2024 01:13:58,229 --> 01:13:56,480 can see the lightning striking there in 2025 01:13:59,590 --> 01:13:58,239 the distance so it's kind of interesting 2026 01:14:01,430 --> 01:13:59,600 that after all these years things 2027 01:14:03,270 --> 01:14:01,440 continue to turn up from time to time we 2028 01:14:04,870 --> 01:14:03,280 do find little little bits of 2029 01:14:06,390 --> 01:14:04,880 information that might still be useful 2030 01:14:07,669 --> 01:14:06,400 in the furthering of our understanding 2031 01:14:09,910 --> 01:14:07,679 of what's happening down there at brown 2032 01:14:12,790 --> 01:14:09,920 mountain well thanks for that mike and 2033 01:14:16,070 --> 01:14:12,800 uh condolences on your grandfather fanta 2034 01:14:18,550 --> 01:14:16,080 over 100 years old that's amazing 101 2035 01:14:21,189 --> 01:14:18,560 yeah another quick anecdote when sputnik 2036 01:14:23,830 --> 01:14:21,199 one was launched by the russians in 1957 2037 01:14:25,990 --> 01:14:23,840 he and my uncle had sat outside and and 2038 01:14:27,910 --> 01:14:26,000 observed as it passed over through a 2039 01:14:29,430 --> 01:14:27,920 telescope he had also taken a photograph 2040 01:14:31,350 --> 01:14:29,440 that he wanted me to look at now i 2041 01:14:32,870 --> 01:14:31,360 haven't found this photo it must still 2042 01:14:35,110 --> 01:14:32,880 be in his record someplace but he said i 2043 01:14:36,709 --> 01:14:35,120 took a photo of some very odd contrails 2044 01:14:38,630 --> 01:14:36,719 one day which he kind of alluded to 2045 01:14:40,149 --> 01:14:38,640 having been chemtrails he wanted me to 2046 01:14:42,390 --> 01:14:40,159 have this photo and i haven't uncovered 2047 01:14:44,470 --> 01:14:42,400 that yet in his archives so i hope to be 2048 01:14:47,110 --> 01:14:44,480 able to maybe find that because he was a 2049 01:14:48,550 --> 01:14:47,120 fascinating person and as has come to my 2050 01:14:50,390 --> 01:14:48,560 attention apparently he paid a little 2051 01:14:52,390 --> 01:14:50,400 bit more interest to unusual things than 2052 01:14:54,149 --> 01:14:52,400 i realized you know that wasn't the only 2053 01:14:55,430 --> 01:14:54,159 newspaper dealing with strange phenomena 2054 01:14:56,709 --> 01:14:55,440 that he had kept he'd kept another 2055 01:14:58,550 --> 01:14:56,719 newspaper that talked about fairy 2056 01:15:00,709 --> 01:14:58,560 circles found here in asheville there 2057 01:15:01,669 --> 01:15:00,719 was one written by an author named john 2058 01:15:03,110 --> 01:15:01,679 paris 2059 01:15:04,390 --> 01:15:03,120 that was talking about strange 2060 01:15:05,990 --> 01:15:04,400 happenings 2061 01:15:08,550 --> 01:15:06,000 as it related to a religious group here 2062 01:15:10,550 --> 01:15:08,560 in the area so he had apparently kept 2063 01:15:11,590 --> 01:15:10,560 rather quietly an interest over the 2064 01:15:13,270 --> 01:15:11,600 years in a variety of different 2065 01:15:14,709 --> 01:15:13,280 unexplained things and it just it's very 2066 01:15:16,709 --> 01:15:14,719 funny for me because the more i learn 2067 01:15:18,149 --> 01:15:16,719 about my family members in the past the 2068 01:15:19,350 --> 01:15:18,159 more i find that there's been a long 2069 01:15:21,270 --> 01:15:19,360 tradition whether or not they were very 2070 01:15:22,950 --> 01:15:21,280 vocal about it of people in my family 2071 01:15:25,110 --> 01:15:22,960 who've had these kind of interests well 2072 01:15:27,189 --> 01:15:25,120 that's really true if you actually start 2073 01:15:29,110 --> 01:15:27,199 asking around in your family if you've 2074 01:15:31,590 --> 01:15:29,120 never done it before or even your circle 2075 01:15:32,870 --> 01:15:31,600 of friends what i've found because i'm 2076 01:15:35,590 --> 01:15:32,880 not afraid to 2077 01:15:38,310 --> 01:15:35,600 is that everybody's family or circle of 2078 01:15:40,790 --> 01:15:38,320 friends has a few people in it who have 2079 01:15:42,709 --> 01:15:40,800 had some sort of weird experience and 2080 01:15:44,709 --> 01:15:42,719 they might not talk about it but if once 2081 01:15:46,950 --> 01:15:44,719 you get them talking about it it can be 2082 01:15:47,910 --> 01:15:46,960 really interesting absolutely my uncle 2083 01:15:50,550 --> 01:15:47,920 for instance would have been my 2084 01:15:52,950 --> 01:15:50,560 grandfather's son eldest child my uncle 2085 01:15:54,470 --> 01:15:52,960 had worked back probably the early 70s 2086 01:15:56,550 --> 01:15:54,480 or maybe the late 60s right after he 2087 01:16:00,229 --> 01:15:56,560 graduated from college he had worked for 2088 01:16:02,070 --> 01:16:00,239 a manufacturer of jet components and he 2089 01:16:03,910 --> 01:16:02,080 had said that one evening he got a phone 2090 01:16:05,750 --> 01:16:03,920 call from some of his co-workers and it 2091 01:16:07,430 --> 01:16:05,760 was good commute to where he had to work 2092 01:16:09,430 --> 01:16:07,440 tomorrow he was about 45 minutes away 2093 01:16:10,550 --> 01:16:09,440 from his workplace but they called and 2094 01:16:12,709 --> 01:16:10,560 asked bill would you be interested in 2095 01:16:13,990 --> 01:16:12,719 coming out here there's something that 2096 01:16:15,590 --> 01:16:14,000 we've seen that's hovering over the 2097

dark object 2103 01:16:25,750 --> 01:16:24,400 came hovering we they never got a good 2104 01:16:27,189 --> 01:16:25,760 look at what it was because it was dark 2105 01:16:28,709 --> 01:16:27,199

breakaway 2227 01:21:44,149 --> 01:21:41,040 civilizations ufo disclosure 2228 01:21:46,550 --> 01:21:44,159 and indeed the brown mountain lights 2229 01:21:47,510 --> 01:21:46,560 i remember we talked to this fellow 2230 01:21:49,590 --> 01:21:47,520 ralph 2231 01:21:52,629 --> 01:21:49,600 lail at the time 2232 01:21:55,270 --> 01:21:52,639 and did you ever meet him micah uh no 2233

a little bit about ralph if you want to 2239 01:22:07,189 --> 01:22:04,960 a little later i do have a funny story 2240 01:22:09,030 --> 01:22:07,199 about that yeah i was just gonna say 2241 01:22:11,270 --> 01:22:09,040 everyone seems to be walking around with 2242 01:22:13,910 --> 01:22:11,280 a story but they seem to be hesitant to 2243 01:22:15,910 --> 01:22:13,920 share them possibly for fear of ridicule 2244 01:22:18,310 --> 01:22:15,920 or just because opening up that kind of 2245 01:22:20,390 --> 01:22:18,320 discussion opens up the unknown as a 2246 01:22:22,390 --> 01:22:20,400 whole and that's a little scary 2247 01:22:24,790 --> 01:22:22,400 and i'm wondering 2248 01:22:27,510 --> 01:22:24,800 do people have any ideas about the best 2249 01:22:29,350 --> 01:22:27,520 ways to kind of get people to 2250 01:22:31,830 --> 01:22:29,360 uh share their stories to get them 2251 01:22:33,430 --> 01:22:31,840 willing to talk about that with you let 2252 01:22:35,189 --> 01:22:33,440 me begin by asking sue have you ever had 2253 01:22:38,470 --> 01:22:35,199 an experience yourself 2254 01:22:39,750 --> 01:22:38,480 oh yeah various sure over the years 2255 01:22:42,229 --> 01:22:39,760 would you would you be comfortable 2256 01:22:44,310 --> 01:22:42,239 giving an example of something 2257 01:22:46,550 --> 01:22:44,320 um no 2258 01:22:48,709 --> 01:22:46,560 see there we go all right yeah it 2259 01:22:50,790 --> 01:22:48,719 doesn't really seem relevant to other 2260 01:22:52,629 --> 01:22:50,800 people it was highly personal in nature 2261 01:22:54,229 --> 01:22:52,639 and i'm not sure that it makes a good 2262 01:22:55,590 --> 01:22:54,239 story story 2263 01:22:58,149 --> 01:22:55,600 i understand well you know that's the 2264 01:23:00,390 --> 01:22:58,159 thing about when i have experiences 2265 01:23:02,229 --> 01:23:00,400 they're typically and again i don't 2266 01:23:03,590 --> 01:23:02,239 consider myself a person who has psychic 2267 01:23:05,189 --> 01:23:03,600 abilities or anything like that i've 2268 01:23:07,510 --> 01:23:05,199 never seen what i could say oh my gosh 2269 01:23:09,910 --> 01:23:07,520 that was a full-blown 2270 01:23:11,350 --> 01:23:09,920 exotic aircraft of some kind a ufo by 2271 01:23:12,709 --> 01:23:11,360 definition 2272 01:23:14,709 --> 01:23:12,719 i haven't had those experiences but i 2273 01:23:16,709 --> 01:23:14,719 tell you what i've had a lot of 2274 01:23:18,310 --> 01:23:16,719 synchronicities and just to give you a 2275 01:23:20,709 --> 01:23:18,320 few examples i mean this is very 2276 01:23:23,030 --> 01:23:20,719 recently i had a dream that a band that 2277 01:23:24,310 --> 01:23:23,040 i used to help out as a guitarist a 2278 01:23:25,430 --> 01:23:24,320 number of years ago was getting back 2279 01:23:27,270 --> 01:23:25,440 together and they couldn't find their 2280 01:23:28,629 --> 01:23:27,280 singer the next day 2281 01:23:30,070 --> 01:23:28,639 the current bass player in my group 2282 01:23:32,149 --> 01:23:30,080 contacted me and said guess who called 2283 01:23:33,669 --> 01:23:32,159 me and wants to do some recording 2284 01:23:35,030 --> 01:23:33,679 the old group and he named the group and 2285 01:23:36,470 --> 01:23:35,040 he said but apparently they're doing it 2286 01:23:38,390 --> 01:23:36,480 this time and justin the singer isn't 2287 01:23:39,510 --> 01:23:38,400 coming back and i thought really and i 2288 01:23:40,629 --> 01:23:39,520 told him about the dream i'd had the 2289 01:23:42,550 --> 01:23:40,639 night before and he didn't really have 2290 01:23:44,470 --> 01:23:42,560 much to say about it so i think that 2291 01:23:45,990 --> 01:23:44,480 sometimes those peculiar little 2292 01:23:46,830 --> 01:23:46,000 coincidences meaningful though they are 2293 01:23:48,709 --> 01:23:46,840 to 2294 01:23:50,550 --> 01:23:48,719 individuals may not have that same 2295 01:23:51,590 --> 01:23:50,560 meaning to other people and that seems 2296 01:23:53,430 --> 01:23:51,600 to 2297 01:23:55,110 --> 01:23:53,440 be the general trend is that these are 2298 01:23:56,310 --> 01:23:55,120 excluded from general conversation 2299 01:23:57,910 --> 01:23:56,320 because those 2300 01:23:59,669 --> 01:23:57,920 i can tell about an experience like that 2301 01:24:01,110 --> 01:23:59,679 somebody might say well that means 2302 01:24:02,470 --> 01:24:01,120 little or nothing 2303 01:24:04,390 --> 01:24:02,480 or they assume that you're trying to 2304 01:24:05,910 --> 01:24:04,400 make some sort of a case for having some 2305 01:24:07,910 --> 01:24:05,920 strange psychic abilities another 2306 01:24:09,830 --> 01:24:07,920 example i was sitting here in my office 2307 01:24:11,590 --> 01:24:09,840 the other day i knew that my friend 2308 01:24:13,990 --> 01:24:11,600 lindsay was going to be coming into town 2309 01:24:14,950 --> 01:24:14,000 soon with her family i thought about the 2310 01:24:16,310 --> 01:24:14,960 fact that they were going to be coming 2311 01:24:18,149 --> 01:24:16,320 into town and i said she'll be 2312 01:24:19,910 --> 01:24:18,159 contacting me really soon to talk about 2313 01:24:21,830 --> 01:24:19,920 this and then my phone rang that instant 2314 01:24:23,590 --> 01:24:21,840 there it was she was calling 2315 01:24:24,950 --> 01:24:23,600 um a lot of people have talked about 2316 01:24:26,870 --> 01:24:24,960 that i know i'm about to hear from 2317 01:24:28,709 --> 01:24:26,880 somebody before the phone rings that's 2318 01:24:30,550 --> 01:24:28,719 probably the most stark and obvious 2319 01:24:32,629 --> 01:24:30,560 instance of that occurring that i've 2320 01:24:33,750 --> 01:24:32,639 experienced in a long time 2321 01:24:35,189 --> 01:24:33,760 and then there are other things that 2322 01:24:37,110 --> 01:24:35,199 have happened just as well i had a dream 2323 01:24:38,550 --> 01:24:37,120 the other night that i was playing a 2324 01:24:40,629 --> 01:24:38,560 show with a couple of musicians a 2325 01:24:42,709 --> 01:24:40,639 particular mandolin player and a fiddler 2326 01:24:44,149 --> 01:24:42,719 we do traditional mountain music here 2327 01:24:45,430 --> 01:24:44,159 but the next day i did not have a gig 2328 01:24:46,629 --> 01:24:45,440 scheduled but the mandolin player from 2329 01:24:48,950 --> 01:24:46,639 the dream the night before called and 2330 01:24:50,790 --> 01:24:48,960 said i realized i had a gig tonight i 2331 01:24:52,310 --> 01:24:50,800 didn't remember it they've called 2332 01:24:54,470 --> 01:24:52,320 wanting to where i am i don't have other 2333 01:24:55,830 --> 01:24:54,480 musicians can you come play and we were 2334 01:24:57,110 --> 01:24:55,840 sitting on stage together at the gig 2335 01:24:58,790 --> 01:24:57,120 later that night and i explained to him 2336 01:25:00,070 --> 01:24:58,800 i said and let's be really careful 2337 01:25:01,270 --> 01:25:00,080 because last night in the dream i had 2338 01:25:03,590 --> 01:25:01,280 were you and i were playing a show my 2339 01:25:05,350 --> 01:25:03,600 guitar neck got broken and he said uh 2340 01:25:06,790 --> 01:25:05,360 well what should we do and i said let's 2341 01:25:08,149 --> 01:25:06,800 hope my guitar neck doesn't get broken 2342 01:25:10,070 --> 01:25:08,159 and it didn't 2343 01:25:11,750 --> 01:25:10,080 but it was funny that you know that that 2344 01:25:14,310 --> 01:25:11,760 would happen and um 2345 01:25:16,629 --> 01:25:14,320 is it only meaningful to me 2346 01:25:17,990 --> 01:25:16,639 or is there legitimately a bizarre 2347 01:25:19,350 --> 01:25:18,000 coincidence occurring there that's 2348 01:25:20,629 --> 01:25:19,360 noteworthy what about you randall you 2349 01:25:23,270 --> 01:25:20,639 ever had an experience of something 2350 01:25:24,950 --> 01:25:23,280 strange along those lines oh yeah all 2351 01:25:27,110 --> 01:25:24,960 kinds of stuff like that 2352 01:25:29,189 --> 01:25:27,120 apart from ufos which 2353 01:25:32,149 --> 01:25:29,199 i i tend to think of as something a 2354 01:25:34,950 --> 01:25:32,159 little bit separate from paranormal 2355 01:25:36,950 --> 01:25:34,960 i've had ghost experiences and 2356 01:25:38,870 --> 01:25:36,960 similar types of dreams 2357 01:25:40,890 --> 01:25:38,880 as you although recently i'm i'm hoping 2358 01:25:42,709 --> 01:25:40,900 none of my dreams come true 2359 01:25:45,830 --> 01:25:42,719 [Music] 2360 01:25:49,189 --> 01:25:45,840 and uh yeah oh yeah definitely 2361 01:25:51,830 --> 01:25:49,199 mib and oh man the list goes on and 2362 01:25:53,669 --> 01:25:51,840 that's why i do believe 2363 01:25:55,990 --> 01:25:53,679 i can't be the only person in the world 2364 01:25:58,229 --> 01:25:56,000 who's experienced these things 2365 01:25:59,430 --> 01:25:58,239 if i've experienced them 2366 01:26:01,270 --> 01:25:59,440 other people 2367 01:26:02,629 --> 01:26:01,280 when they say they have it's just not 2368 01:26:05,030 --> 01:26:02,639 fair to say 2369 01:26:06,310 --> 01:26:05,040 no you haven't you that's all nonsense 2370 01:26:08,870 --> 01:26:06,320 i'm the only person who's ever 2371 01:26:11,110 --> 01:26:08,880 experienced these things so i do believe 2372 01:26:13,270 --> 01:26:11,120 that the phenomena is real i think it's 2373 01:26:14,950 --> 01:26:13,280 just really important how we interpret 2374 01:26:16,310 --> 01:26:14,960 it gene i'm interested though because 2375 01:26:17,750 --> 01:26:16,320 randall just said he had an mib 2376 01:26:19,510 --> 01:26:17,760 experience have you heard this story 2377 01:26:21,590 --> 01:26:19,520 gene you know what i think we're going 2378 01:26:23,910 --> 01:26:21,600 to have to pursue this more we might 2379 01:26:26,070 --> 01:26:23,920 have discussed it on one of our past 2380 01:26:27,189 --> 01:26:26,080 episodes but that's long ago and far 2381 01:26:29,990 --> 01:26:27,199 away and 2382 01:26:32,310 --> 01:26:30,000 we always have a lot of new listeners to 2383 01:26:34,070 --> 01:26:32,320 particular episodes so randall you've 2384 01:26:35,669 -->

basically that were 2389 01:26:45,669 --> 01:26:43,520 rather bizarre but the most bizarre one 2390 01:26:48,550 --> 01:26:45,679 i was working out in bc 2391 01:26:50,629 --> 01:26:48,560 in rogers pass i was a section four man 2392 01:26:52,310 --> 01:26:50,639 out there and it's a fairly lonely 2393 01:26:54,310 --> 01:26:52,320 stretch of highway 2394 01:26:57,590 --> 01:26:54,320 going from there to where my mom lived 2395 01:26:59,030 --> 01:26:57,600 in windermere which is a location where 2396 01:27:01,189 --> 01:26:59,040 a number of things happen in the rocky 2397 01:27:02,950 --> 01:27:01,199 mountain trench you can this this is a 2398 01:27:06,149 --> 01:27:02,960 geological feature you can actually see 2399 01:27:08,310 --> 01:27:06,159 from space and it's also where i saw the 2400 01:27:09,590 --> 01:27:08,320 ufo i saw when i was younger but i was 2401 01:27:11,830 --> 01:27:09,600 driving 2402 01:27:12,790 --> 01:27:11,840 to make a long story short to my mom's 2403 01:27:16,550 --> 01:27:12,800 place 2404 01:27:17,750 --> 01:27:16,560 and uh it was 1977 2405 01:27:24,629 --> 01:27:17,760 and 2406 01:27:26,070 --> 01:27:24,639 just driving along at night when all of 2407 01:27:29,270 --> 01:27:26,080 a sudden 2408 01:27:30,790 --> 01:27:29,280 i saw what looked like a car coming to 2409 01:27:33,830 --> 01:27:30,800 an intersection a 2410 01:27:36,629 --> 01:27:33,840 like a t intersection in front of me 2411 01:27:39,189 --> 01:27:36,639 and i thought well i hope it stops 2412 01:27:40,149 --> 01:27:39,199 but it didn't and so 2413 01:28:37,750 -->

insofar 2718 01:40:02,470 --> 01:40:00,880 as he had a tv show and a radio show and 2719 01:40:04,709 --> 01:40:02,480 he got a paycheck 2720 01:40:07,430 --> 01:40:04,719 then he was interested 2721 01:40:10,310 --> 01:40:07,440 other than that you know he was as they 2722 01:40:12,310 --> 01:40:10,320 say a difficult personality 2723 01:40:13,669 --> 01:40:12,320 that's funny well you know gene we 2724 01:40:15,030 --> 01:40:13,679 always hear about the stories about ah 2725 01:40:16,470 --> 01:40:15,040 this researcher or that researcher 2726 01:40:17,750 --> 01:40:16,480 they're just interested in selling books 2727 01:40:20,390 --> 01:40:17,760 and making money 2728 01:40:23,030 --> 01:40:20,400 and to that i always retort well you 2729 01:40:25,510 --> 01:40:23,040 know if you really wanted to make money 2730 01:40:26,870 --> 01:40:25,520 ufos aren't the thing to write about uh 2731 01:40:28,229 --> 01:40:26,880 there are any number of subjects you 2732 01:40:30,870 --> 01:40:28,239 could choose to write about any number 2733 01:40:33,270 --> 01:40:30,880 of controversies or political scandals 2734 01:40:34,470 --> 01:40:33,280 or or celebrity gossip i mean any number 2735 01:40:35,910 --> 01:40:34,480 of things that could be written about if 2736 01:40:38,149 --> 01:40:35,920 you really are just trying to make money 2737 01:40:40,070 --> 01:40:38,159 as a writer so it kind of seems to me 2738 01:40:42,950 --> 01:40:40,080 that uh as far as people just trying to 2739 01:40:45,350 --> 01:40:42,960 cash in on their involvement in the ufo 2740 01:40:46,229 --> 01:40:45,360 uh circles and whatnot uh that uh that 2741 01:40:49,830 --> 01:40:46,239 that 2742 01:40:51,350 --> 01:40:49,840 seems a bit null and void there are much 2743 01:40:54,070 --> 01:40:51,360 better ways to make money than writing 2744 01:40:57,030 --> 01:40:54,080 about ufos i can tell you that 2745 01:40:59,350 --> 01:40:57,040 i think when money was made about ufos 2746 01:41:02,229 --> 01:40:59,360 when people made money writing books it 2747 01:41:05,109 --> 01:41:02,239 was a long time ago the early books 2748 01:41:06,310 --> 01:41:05,119 some of them made money oh i love the 2749 01:41:08,070 --> 01:41:06,320 early books 2750 01:41:09,590 --> 01:41:08,080 kehoe and 2751 01:41:11,590 --> 01:41:09,600 rupault and 2752 01:41:14,950 --> 01:41:11,600 keel and all the rest i've got a huge 2753 01:41:17,030 --> 01:41:14,960 library of all of that stuff edwards 2754 01:41:19,350 --> 01:41:17,040 got a lot of originals what about all 2755 01:41:21,270 --> 01:41:19,360 the early magazines i guess there's a 2756 01:41:22,550 --> 01:41:21,280 lot of stuff that was printed at one 2757 01:41:25,350 --> 01:41:22,560 time and 2758 01:41:27,109 --> 01:41:25,360 really isn't around anymore except maybe 2759 01:41:29,750 --> 01:41:27,119 in digital format 2760 01:41:30,830 --> 01:41:29,760 they are posting more and more 2761 01:41:34,629 --> 01:41:30,840 digital 2762 01:41:36,070 --> 01:41:34,639 versions of the early ufo magazines 2763 01:41:38,790 --> 01:41:36,080 because what i've seen of that really 2764 01:41:40,229 --> 01:41:38,800 captures the flavor of the era 2765 01:41:41,990 --> 01:41:40,239 well the problem of course when you get 2766 01:41:43,830 --> 01:41:42,000 digital is 2767 01:41:46,470 --> 01:41:43,840 they scan them but they never have the 2768 01:41:48,950 --> 01:41:46,480 scans lined up in the scanning machine 2769 01:41:51,350 --> 01:41:48,960 so you see the pages 2770 01:41:52,550 --> 01:41:51,360 skewed off center a little bit you've 2771 01:41:55,430 --> 01:41:52,560 noticed that 2772 01:41:57,750 --> 01:41:55,440 oh yeah you know on that subject guys 2773 01:41:58,790 --> 01:41:57,760 there's some great old magazines and 2774 01:42:00,310 --> 01:41:58,800 journals that a lot of people aren't 2775 01:42:01,590 --> 01:42:00,320 even aware of that have now been 2776 01:42:03,990 --> 01:42:01,600 digitized that are well worth reading 2777 01:42:06,070 --> 01:42:04,000 the old april journals a lot of those 2778 01:42:08,950 --> 01:42:06,080 are online the zetetic scholar that was 2779 01:42:10,709 --> 01:42:08,960 uh published by marcelo chutzi um and 2780 01:42:12,310 --> 01:42:10,719 and one that is still in print gene you 2781 01:42:14,470 --> 01:42:12,320 know this and of course i i'm a 2782 01:42:15,910 --> 01:42:14,480 columnist for the magazine and hoping 2783 01:42:17,750 --> 01:42:15,920 in the coming 2784 01:42:19,910 --> 01:42:17,760 night truly maybe the next few months 2785 01:42:22,870 --> 01:42:19,920 let alone the coming years but uh fate 2786 01:42:24,790 --> 01:42:22,880 magazine which really began in 1948 was 2787 01:42:25,830 --> 01:42:24,800 one of the premier ufo publications of 2788 01:42:27,590 --> 01:42:25,840 the day 2789 01:42:30,470 --> 01:42:27,600 they're still in print phyllis gauldy is 2790 01:42:31,910 --> 01:42:30,480 a good friend i hear rumors she may may 2791 01:42:33,189 --> 01:42:31,920 be moving to my neck of the woods and 2792 01:42:34,870 --> 01:42:33,199 i'm hoping that she and i we've worked 2793 01:42:36,310 --> 01:42:34,880 together with fate for a long time but 2794 01:42:38,709 --> 01:42:36,320 i'm hoping to 2795 01:42:40,950 --> 01:42:38,719 keep that publication running and and uh 2796 01:42:43,430 --> 01:42:40,960 you know see that as something that is 2797 01:42:45,350 --> 01:42:43,440 one of the few continuances i think of 2798 01:42:47,590 --> 01:42:45,360 that era of publishing where these 2799 01:42:49,510 --> 01:42:47,600 subjects uh could be addressed in a in a 2800 01:42:51,510 --> 01:42:49,520 print medium you know the other problem 2801 01:42:52,870 --> 01:42:51,520 with digital gene is that 2802 01:42:54,870 --> 01:42:52,880 you know these days everybody and his 2803 01:42:56,790 --> 01:42:54,880 brother and sister have got a blog or 2804 01:42:58,950 --> 01:42:56,800 you know an online magazine and there's 2805 01:43:01,270 --> 01:42:58,960 so much saturation back in the old days 2806 01:43:02,790 --> 01:43:01,280 these magazines like argosy true fate 2807 01:43:04,870 --> 01:43:02,800 which was devoted solely to the 2808 01:43:06,870 --> 01:43:04,880 unexplained um 2809 01:43:08,709 --> 01:43:06,880 existing publications like fortian times 2810 01:43:10,709 --> 01:43:08,719 in the uk 2811 01:43:11,830 --> 01:43:10,719 they were the only way apart from the 2812 01:43:14,070 --> 01:43:11,840 newsletters 2813 01:43:15,990 --> 01:43:14,080 that uh put individuals like jim mosley 2814 01:43:17,750 --> 01:43:16,000 you course worked for his that they put 2815 01:43:19,189 --> 01:43:17,760 uh those were the only mediums for being 2816 01:43:20,790 --> 01:43:19,199 able to get this kind of information and 2817 01:43:21,750 --> 01:43:20,800 with the web although there's much more 2818 01:43:24,870 --> 01:43:21,760 access 2819 01:43:26,550 --> 01:43:24,880 it's almost kind of oversaturated too so 2820 01:43:28,070 --> 01:43:26,560 you know i do kind of miss the bygone 2821 01:43:29,350 --> 01:43:28,080 era of buying the magazines on the 2822 01:43:31,910 --> 01:43:29,360 stands and having to read about these 2823 01:43:34,390 --> 01:43:31,920 kind of things and print publications 2824 01:43:37,669 --> 01:43:34,400 what bothers me here is 2825 01:43:39,750 --> 01:43:37,679 with the ubiquity the ease of 2826 01:43:43,590 --> 01:43:39,760 online publishing i mean anybody can 2827 01:43:44,950 --> 01:43:43,600 sign up for a free blog at wordpress 2828 01:43:46,790 --> 01:43:44,960 or at 2829 01:43:50,709 --> 01:43:46,800 google blogspot 2830 01:43:52,870 --> 01:43:50,719 the problem is that the quality 2831 01:43:54,070 --> 01:43:52,880 just ain't there anymore 2832 01:43:56,790 --> 01:43:54,080 yeah 2833 01:44:00,149 --> 01:43:56,800 so they're really not a replacement for 2834 01:44:01,189 --> 01:44:00,159 the magazines or the zines of bygone 2835 01:44:03,030 --> 01:44:01,199 years 2836 01:44:05,030 --> 01:44:03,040 because there's no editorial 2837 01:44:06,550 --> 01:44:05,040 control over what goes in there for the 2838 01:44:07,910 --> 01:44:06,560 most part 2839 01:44:10,550 --> 01:44:07,920 yeah well that brings up a really 2840 01:44:12,390 --> 01:44:10,560 interesting point that i ran across oh 2841 01:44:15,910 --> 01:44:12,400 earlier this year actually about 2842 01:44:19,350 --> 01:44:15,920 wikipedia because i had gone on to 2843 01:44:20,390 --> 01:44:19,360 do some editing on the ufo and ufology 2844 01:44:22,149 --> 01:44:20,400 pages 2845 01:44:25,109 --> 01:44:22,159 and i was discovering 2846 01:44:26,550 --> 01:44:25,119 that within hours of me updating them to 2847 01:44:28,229 --> 01:44:26,560 reflect 2848 01:44:29,510 --> 01:44:28,239 what according to the history of the 2849 01:44:32,070 --> 01:44:29,520 subject matter 2850 01:44:34,070 --> 01:44:32,080 an objective look at it 2851 01:44:35,990 --> 01:44:34,080 actually says it would be changed to 2852 01:44:37,590 --> 01:44:36,000 something that was more skeptically 2853 01:44:39,189 --> 01:44:37,600 opinionated 2854 01:44:41,270 --> 01:44:39,199 and i ran across 2855 01:44:43,109 --> 01:44:41,280 in doing this something called the 2856 01:44:45,030 --> 01:44:43,119 gorilla skeptics 2857 01:44:47,669 --> 01:44:45,040 who actually 2858 01:44:49,910 --> 01:44:47,679 go on to the wikipedia and look at all 2859 01:44:52,709 --> 01:44:49,920 the paranormal subjects 2860 01:44:55,350 --> 01:44:52,719 and they have a mandate to get on there 2861 01:44:57,830 --> 01:44:55,360 and change it to their point of view 2862 01:44:59,910 --> 01:44:57,840 as soon as anybody else goes on there 2863 01:45:00,790 --> 01:44:59,920 and updates it to reflect something that 2864 01:45:02,550 --> 01:45:00,800 is 2865 01:45:05,669 --> 01:45:02,560 whatever in their view 2866 01:45:08,390 --> 01:45:05,679 pro paranormal or pro ufo or something 2867 01:45:10,229 --> 01:45:08,400 else they always put this slant 2868 01:45:11,109 --> 01:45:10,239 into it and some of it is just downright 2869 01:45:13,189 --> 01:45:11,119 wrong 2870 01:45:15,189 --> 01:45:13,199 that's the problem with wikipedia and i 2871 01:45:16,870 --> 01:45:15,199 want to get into it in our next

the career of donald menzel one of the 2983 01:49:48,070 --> 01:49:45,679 popular ufo skeptics of the era which 2984 01:49:50,149 --> 01:49:48,080 the era being the 50s and 60s even more 2985 01:49:52,390 --> 01:49:50,159 interesting there had been discussions 2986 01:49:53,990 --> 01:49:52,400 via letters between menzel and 2987 01:49:55,830 --> 01:49:54,000 the man who would go on to become u.s 2988 01:49:58,070 --> 01:49:55,840 president john f kennedy and some of 2989 01:49:59,590 --> 01:49:58,080 these not only discussed uh this the 2990 01:50:02,470 --> 01:49:59,600 interest in astronomy that kennedy had 2991 01:50:03,990 --> 01:50:02,480 had but menzel also says you know in so 2992 01:50:05,270 --> 01:50:04,000 many words to kennedy that you know if 2993 01:50:06,390 --> 01:50:05,280 you had the proper clearance i might be 2994 01:50:07,430 --> 01:50:06,400 able to discuss some of these things 2995 01:50:08,870 --> 01:50:07,440 with you 2996 01:50:10,550 --> 01:50:08,880 so i went online to try and look up 2997 01:50:11,910 --> 01:50:10,560 information about donald menzel in the 2998 01:50:14,470 --> 01:50:11,920 talks section 2999 01:50:16,149 --> 01:50:14,480 on wikipedia you'll often find subjects 3000 01:50:17,590 --> 01:50:16,159 that are being discussed for 3001 01:50:19,590 --> 01:50:17,600 consideration for inclusion in the 3002 01:50:21,669 --> 01:50:19,600 primary article but often aren't 3003 01:50:22,870 --> 01:50:21,679 you'll never find anyone in the skeptic 3004 01:50:24,709 --> 01:50:22,880 camps that are very interested in 3005 01:50:26,950 --> 01:50:24,719 discussing the security clearances that 3006 01:50:29,030 --> 01:50:26,960 menzel had had now again stanton uses 3007 01:50:32,229 --> 01:50:29,040 this as justification for the idea that 3008 01:50:34,149 --> 01:50:32,239 the mj12 papers actually were legitimate 3009 01:50:36,229 --> 01:50:34,159 whether or not that's the case i find 3010 01:50:39,750 --> 01:50:36,239 that not to be so much the point here i 3011 01:50:41,430 --> 01:50:39,760 went to the mj-12 page majestic 12 on 3012 01:50:43,109 --> 01:50:41,440 wikipedia there's very little it's a 3013 01:50:44,790 --> 01:50:43,119 very sparse article and i had remembered 3014 01:50:46,709 --> 01:50:44,800 at one point there were being more and 3015 01:50:48,149 --> 01:50:46,719 so one thing about wikipedia that's 3016 01:50:50,310 --> 01:50:48,159 interesting is you can go back and look 3017 01:50:51,830 --> 01:50:50,320 at the revision history of articles and 3018 01:50:52,950 --> 01:50:51,840 sadly when it comes to these sorts of 3019 01:50:54,950 --> 01:50:52,960 subjects you'll find a lot more 3020 01:50:56,390 --> 01:50:54,960 information by doing that because of 3021 01:50:57,830 --> 01:50:56,400 these so-called guerrilla skeptics 3022 01:50:59,910 --> 01:50:57,840 you're talking about 3023 01:51:02,070 --> 01:50:59,920 there was so much good information at 3024 01:51:05,430 --> 01:51:02,080 one time on that page and much of it was 3025 01:51:07,750 --> 01:51:05,440 skeptical data about mj-12 arguments 3026 01:51:09,030 --> 01:51:07,760 against mj-12 you'd think that this 3027 01:51:10,390 --> 01:51:09,040 would be the kind of thing that skeptics 3028 01:51:11,990 --> 01:51:10,400 would want but not even that is good 3029 01:51:13,669 --> 01:51:12,000 enough they have to trim away all of 3030 01:51:15,750 --> 01:51:13,679 that data as though they don't want the 3031 01:51:17,350 --> 01:51:15,760 discussion to be had in the first place 3032 01:51:19,270 --> 01:51:17,360 it's got to be the short little sparse 3033 01:51:23,350 --> 01:51:19,280 article oh no it's wikipedia we don't 3034 01:51:25,109 --> 01:51:23,360 want woo-woo kapedia so they trim away 3035 01:51:27,189 --> 01:51:25,119 all of this discussion even some of the 3036 01:51:29,669 --> 01:51:27,199 good skeptical data and i find that 3037 01:51:31,750 --> 01:51:29,679 atrocious why is it that not only can we 3038 01:51:34,709 --> 01:51:31,760 not espouse skepticism and belief we 3039 01:51:36,470 --> 01:51:34,719 can't even have a full discussion 3040 01:51:38,149 --> 01:51:36,480 there is an issue here and that is 3041 01:51:39,270 --> 01:51:38,159 definitely something that's concerning 3042 01:51:40,709 --> 01:51:39,280 and i would say 3043 01:51:43,390 --> 01:51:40,719 well and actually there are various 3044 01:51:45,270 --> 01:51:43,400 sites that do just what i'm about to say 3045 01:51:47,350 --> 01:51:45,280 forums.thebarecast.com is one but you 3046 01:51:48,709 --> 01:51:47,360 could go start your own site but again 3047 01:51:50,310 --> 01:51:48,719 the problem is is that if we've already 3048 01:51:52,950 --> 01:51:50,320 got an existing site with the kind of 3049 01:51:54,950 --> 01:51:52,960 broad appeal in the reach of wikipedia 3050 01:51:56,709 --> 01:51:54,960 why is it that certain subjects again 3051 01:51:59,270 --> 01:51:56,719 seem to not only be controlled and 3052 01:52:02,070 --> 01:51:59,280 moderated to the point of extreme bias 3053 01:52:03,589 --> 01:52:02,080 but that even relevant factual skeptical 3054 01:52:05,430 --> 01:52:03,599 data has to be omitted as well that just 3055 01:52:07,350 --> 01:52:05,440 seems strange to me well i think part of 3056 01:52:08,790 --> 01:52:07,360 the problem with wikipedia is there's 3057 01:52:12,229 --> 01:52:08,800 really no 3058 01:52:14,550 --> 01:52:12,239 powerful governing body to edit this 3059 01:52:16,790 --> 01:52:14,560 it's all open source anybody can 3060 01:52:18,470 --> 01:52:16,800 contribute stuff to it there are basic 3061 01:52:20,950 --> 01:52:18,480 minimum standards 3062 01:52:23,430 --> 01:52:20,960 to verify at least with a reference of 3063 01:52:26,229 --> 01:52:23,440 some sort what you post there but there 3064 01:52:29,350 --> 01:52:26,239 are no standards to be met there's no 3065 01:52:30,950 --> 01:52:29,360 governing body to set standards on 3066 01:52:32,550 --> 01:52:30,960 accuracy so 3067 01:52:34,709 --> 01:52:32,560 anything can be there we all use 3068 01:52:37,189 --> 01:52:34,719 wikipedia to look up stuff 3069 01:52:38,550 --> 01:52:37,199 but as a fact of the matter is it 3070 01:52:40,709 --> 01:52:38,560 doesn't mean you're getting much that's 3071 01:52:43,350 --> 01:52:40,719 accurate well we'll say this the 3072 01:52:45,430 --> 01:52:43,360 wikipedia foundation i get their emails 3073 01:52:47,750 --> 01:52:45,440 i donate periodically to wikipedia 3074 01:52:49,189 --> 01:52:47,760 because i do appreciate the information 3075 01:52:51,030 --> 01:52:49,199 that they present and the service they 3076 01:52:52,709 --> 01:52:51,040 provide and i do that despite the fact 3077 01:52:55,189 --> 01:52:52,719 that i happen to know that among the 3078 01:52:57,270 --> 01:52:55,199 wikipedia foundation there jimmy wales 3079 01:52:59,430 --> 01:52:57,280 and many others have very openly 3080 01:53:01,589 --> 01:52:59,440 expressed their attitudes about what 3081 01:53:03,990 --> 01:53:01,599 they deem woo-woo subjects they 3082 01:53:05,910 --> 01:53:04,000 typically are are most concerned about 3083 01:53:07,910 --> 01:53:05,920 things like holistic medicine and these 3084 01:53:10,550 --> 01:53:07,920 kinds of issues but unfortunately we see 3085 01:53:12,709 --> 01:53:10,560 that same sort of biased attitude toward 3086 01:53:14,149 --> 01:53:12,719 again even skeptical discussion of ufos 3087 01:53:16,149 --> 01:53:14,159 otherwise this information wouldn't be 3088 01:53:18,310 --> 01:53:16,159 trimmed and edited out of what could 3089 01:53:19,830 --> 01:53:18,320 otherwise be very long comprehensive 3090 01:53:21,589 --> 01:53:19,840 articles if if we're trying to get 3091 01:53:23,990 --> 01:53:21,599 information the summation of human 3092 01:53:26,470 --> 01:53:24,000 knowledge on this website 3093 01:53:28,550 --> 01:53:26,480 why do those subjects seem to be unfit 3094 01:53:30,629 --> 01:53:28,560 for having a lengthy discussion while 3095 01:53:32,709 --> 01:53:30,639 others again have pages that trail on 3096 01:53:34,470 --> 01:53:32,719 forever we want data don't we well let's 3097 01:53:36,629 --> 01:53:34,480 put the data out there let's not dumb 3098 01:53:38,470 --> 01:53:36,639 down the conversation and trim away all 3099 01:53:39,990 --> 01:53:38,480 as though to edit those conversations 3100 01:53:42,149 --> 01:53:40,000 out almost entirely and that does seem 3101 01:53:44,709 --> 01:53:42,159 to be what wikipedia does at times oh 3102 01:53:46,790 --> 01:53:44,719 definitely and they do tolerate this 3103 01:53:49,669 --> 01:53:46,800 guerrilla skeptic's involvement in the 3104 01:53:52,870 --> 01:53:49,679 wikipedia for sure they allow it to take 3105 01:53:55,189 --> 01:53:52,880 place without any kind of uh criticism i 3106 01:53:56,870 --> 01:53:55,199 know that at one point something that i 3107 01:53:59,109 --> 01:53:56,880 had put in had been taken out by a 3108 01:54:01,350 --> 01:53:59,119 moderator and i asked why i had 3109 01:54:03,910 --> 01:54:01,360 references and so on to 3110 01:54:05,910 --> 01:54:03,920 books that had with the information and 3111 01:54:08,390 --> 01:54:05,920 just like i was supposed to but because 3112 01:54:10,229 --> 01:54:08,400 i put in my own profile 3113 01:54:13,510 --> 01:54:10,239 that i was interested in ufos they 3114 01:54:15,109 --> 01:54:13,520 deemed it to be a biased okay so does 3115 01:54:16,950 --> 01:54:15,119 that mean that 3116 01:54:18,870 --> 01:54:16,960 okay i'm a ufologist 3117 01:54:21,030 --> 01:54:18,880 and i write about ufology and therefore 3118 01:54:23,109 --> 01:54:21,040 i'm biased well does that mean that a 3119 01:54:24,470 --> 01:54:23,119 geologist who writes about geology is 3120 01:54:25,669 --> 01:54:24,480 biased 3121 01:54:27,350 --> 01:54:25,679 so 3122 01:54:29,510 --> 01:54:27,360 why can't the people who have the 3123 01:54:32,229 --> 01:54:29,520 knowledge in the field contribute 3124 01:54:33,830 --> 01:54:32,239 without being perceived as biased 3125 01:54:39,589 --> 01:54:33,840 and yet 3126 01:54:41,030 --> 01:54:39,599 are deemed as not having a bias 3127 01:54:42,790 --> 01:54:41,040 there seems to be a double standard 3128 01:54:44,070 --> 01:54:42,800 there randall if i may i'll give one 3129 01:54:45,589 --> 01:54:44,080 more brief example that's similar to 3130 01:54:47,189 --> 01:54:45,599 what you just described 3131 01:54:49,109 --> 01:54:47,199 with my brown mountain alliance research 3132 01:54:51,270 --> 01:54:49,119 i was very interested in looking at what 3133 01:54:53,030 --> 01:54:51,280 information was not only being discussed 3134 01:54:54,790 --> 01:54:53,040 in the talk page because rather than the 3135 01:54:56,390 --> 01:54:54,800 primary article i'll again drive home 3136 01:54:59,030 --> 01:54:56,400 the point that sometimes you'll find 3137 01:55:00,790 --> 01:54:59,040 better leads in the talk page and in the 3138 01:55:02,229 --> 01:55:00,800 revision history where information has 3139 01:55:04,390 --> 01:55:02,239 been edited out 3140 01:55:05,830 --> 01:55:04,400 i found on one occasion that there was 3141 01:55:07,189 --> 01:55:05,840 an experiment and i happened to know 3142 01:55:08,870 --> 01:55:07,199 this experiment took place because i 3143 01:55:11,350 --> 01:55:08,880 know one of the individuals from oak 3144 01:55:13,109 --> 01:55:11,360 ridge laboratories who had been involved 3145 01:55:16,709 --> 01:55:13,119 but there had been an experiment done 3146 01:55:18,550 --> 01:55:16,719 with a extremely high candle power light 3147 01:55:21,510 --> 01:55:18,560 and they were trying to test their 3148 01:55:23,430 --> 01:55:21,520 refraction theory at brown mountain and 3149 01:55:25,510 --> 01:55:23,440 they had managed to cause the appearance 3150 01:55:27,109 --> 01:55:25,520 of large red illumination over the ridge 3151 01:55:29,430 --> 01:55:27,119 by shining a large 3152 01:55:31,990 --> 01:55:29,440 lamp in that direction anyway long story 3153 01:55:33,750 --> 01:55:32,000 short one of the editors chose to remove 3154 01:55:35,669 --> 01:55:33,760 that content from the primary article 3155 01:55:37,189 --> 01:55:35,679 and said i dread having to do this 3156 01:55:38,550 --> 01:55:37,199 because i actually talked with one of 3157 01:55:40,070 --> 01:55:38,560 the researchers who explained this 3158 01:55:41,830 --> 01:55:40,080 experiment to me years ago and i happen 3159 01:55:44,390 --> 01:55:41,840 to know that it did occur but since i 3160 01:55:45,910 --> 01:55:44,400 can't find any reliable source i won't 3161 01:55:46,709 --> 01:55:45,920 include it the reliable source that had 3162 01:55:48,229 --> 01:55:46,719 been 3163 01:55:49,750 --> 01:55:48,239 used previously and that was 3164 01:55:51,910 --> 01:55:49,760 subsequently removed was one of the 3165 01:55:53,350 --> 01:55:51,920 science frontiers links which of course 3166 01:55:55,589 --> 01:55:53,360 had been one of the websites that had 3167 01:55:57,189 --> 01:55:55,599 presented by william r corliss's data 3168 01:55:59,030 --> 01:55:57,199 over the years this was considered unfit 3169 01:56:00,870 --> 01:55:59,040 for inclusion as a link for source 3170 01:56:02,870 --> 01:56:00,880 material on wikipedia despite the fact 3171 01:56:04,550 --> 01:56:02,880 that the editor knew that the experiment 3172 01:56:06,790 --> 01:56:04,560 in question had taken place he'd met one 3173 01:56:09,510 --> 01:56:06,800 of the experimenters that's ridiculous 3174 01:56:11,109 --> 01:56:09,520 is what that is it's absurd that is as 3175 01:56:12,870 --> 01:56:11,119 much a bias as you being a ufo 3176 01:56:14,310 --> 01:56:12,880 researcher writing about ufos in your 3177 01:56:17,030 --> 01:56:14,320 discussion about geologists writing 3178 01:56:18,070 --> 01:56:17,040 about geology do we not want geologists 3179 01:56:19,990 --> 01:56:18,080 to write about the subject they 3180 01:56:21,350 --> 01:56:20,000 understand the best for fear of bias 3181 01:56:23,350 --> 01:56:21,360 leaking into a scientific article on 3182 01:56:25,189 --> 01:56:23,360 wikipedia sometimes knowledge is 3183 01:56:26,870 --> 01:56:25,199 knowledge and even if it's a position 3184 01:56:28,070 --> 01:56:26,880 you don't agree with we need to be in a 3185 01:56:29,750 --> 01:56:28,080 position where we allow people who 3186 01:56:31,109 --> 01:56:29,760 possess certain knowledge to discuss 3187 01:56:33,430 --> 01:56:31,119 those subjects 3188 01:56:35,350 --> 01:56:33,440 well said that's really the bottom line 3189 01:56:37,189 --> 01:56:35,360 to play devil's advocate though i think 3190 01:56:39,189 --> 01:56:37,199 ufology does have a problem where there 3191 01:56:41,750 --> 01:56:39,199 isn't really a literature that you can 3192 01:56:44,189 --> 01:56:41,760 go into and say i want to see all the 3193 01:56:47,270 --> 01:56:44,199 articles on brown mountain lights from 3194 01:56:48,950 --> 01:56:47,280 1962 onward or i want to see 3195 01:56:50,950 --> 01:56:48,960 everything that people have written on 3196 01:56:53,030 --> 01:56:50,960 this topic so that i can compare the 3197 01:56:54,149 --> 01:56:53,040 different interpretations that have been 3198 01:56:56,390 --> 01:56:54,159 put forth 3199 01:56:58,629 --> 01:56:56,400 there's no good way that i'm aware of to 3200 01:57:00,870 --> 01:56:58,639 kind of build on a foundation of 3201 01:57:02,709 --> 01:57:00,880 knowledge and continually refine it and 3202 01:57:04,870 --> 01:57:02,719 if there is i'd like to know about it 3203 01:57:07,189 --> 01:57:04,880 well that's a fair comment absolutely 3204 01:57:10,950 --> 01:57:07,199 that's what i tried to do with my own 3205 01:57:13,589 --> 01:57:10,960 website and hence why i started the usi 3206 01:57:15,750 --> 01:57:13,599 website because nobody can mess with it 3207

asked for a cracker 3317 02:02:29,109 --> 02:02:24,560 i think that's where it all started all 3318 02:02:33,910 --> 02:02:31,669 i like it you see how that came to a 3319 02:02:35,830 --> 02:02:33,920 dead stop yeah anyway you were telling 3320 02:02:37,589 --> 02:02:35,840 us randall how you try to vet the stuff 3321 02:02:39,510 --> 02:02:37,599 that's on your site we hope 3322

do is 3325 02:02:47,109 --> 02:02:45,599 they're just happy to get traffic 3326 02:02:49,030 --> 02:02:47,119 that's another problem i think he was 3327 02:02:50,790 --> 02:02:49,040 actually telling us he was a debunker or 3328 02:02:52,470 --> 02:02:50,800 at least has been accused of being one 3329 02:02:55,430 --> 02:02:52,480 well that's the point too yeah well the 3330 02:02:58,629 --> 02:02:55,440 point is here that you're trying to 3331 02:03:01,189 --> 02:02:58,639 present specific presentation 3332 02:03:03,510 --> 02:03:01,199 on your site and trying to be fair about 3333 02:03:05,189 --> 02:03:03,520 everything yeah like sue says you need 3334 02:03:07,350 --> 02:03:05,199 to look at both sides of the issue you 3335 02:03:09,510 --> 02:03:07,360 need to do some cross-referencing 3336 02:03:10,709 --> 02:03:09,520 and before i write anything that's what 3337 02:03:13,430 --> 02:03:10,719 i do 3338 02:03:15,350 --> 02:03:13,440 and so well for example there's the 3339 02:03:18,070 --> 02:03:15,360 sith graves national forest incident 3340 02:03:20,709 --> 02:03:18,080 known as well the travis walton incident 3341 02:03:22,790 --> 02:03:20,719 and i've met many many people who were 3342 02:03:25,910 --> 02:03:22,800 completely convinced that that's a true 3343 02:03:26,950 --> 02:03:25,920 story and yet when you get looking into 3344 02:03:31,750 --> 02:03:26,960 the 3345 02:03:33,830 --> 02:03:31,760 you might not like someone like uh 3346 02:03:35,270 --> 02:03:33,840 philip class he did 3347 02:03:37,830 --> 02:03:35,280 dig up some information on the 3348 02:03:39,830 --> 02:03:37,840 backgrounds of walton and 3349 02:03:41,750 --> 02:03:39,840 made some pretty good points as to well 3350 02:03:43,430 --> 02:03:41,760 really why should we believe this 3351 02:03:45,589 --> 02:03:43,440 person's story and 3352 02:03:47,589 --> 02:03:45,599 i don't want to go into it in detail 3353 02:03:50,470 --> 02:03:47,599 randall why don't we 3354 02:03:51,830 --> 02:03:50,480 cover some of it we had travis walton on 3355 02:03:55,030 --> 02:03:51,840 the power cast 3356 02:03:57,350 --> 02:03:55,040 months and months ago one time only so 3357 02:03:58,870 --> 02:03:57,360 looking at both sides here those who 3358 02:04:01,189 --> 02:03:58,880 favor him 3359 02:04:03,750 --> 02:04:01,199 and the skeptical point of view 3360 02:04:05,750 --> 02:04:03,760 you sound like you have concerns about 3361 02:04:08,229 --> 02:04:05,760 him 3362 02:04:10,550 --> 02:04:08,239 i think anyone should have concerns and 3363 02:04:12,629 --> 02:04:10,560 let's just briefly say that the word 3364 02:04:14,070 --> 02:04:12,639 debunk there's nothing really wrong with 3365 02:04:16,790 --> 02:04:14,080 that if you can debunk something 3366 02:04:18,950 --> 02:04:16,800 legitimately you should if there is a 3367 02:04:20,550 --> 02:04:18,960 truth to be told and a truth to be found 3368 02:04:22,709 --> 02:04:20,560 we should find it and it should be put 3369 02:04:24,790 --> 02:04:22,719 out there debunkers have uncovered 3370 02:04:27,430 --> 02:04:24,800 serious credibility flaws in walton and 3371 02:04:28,950 --> 02:04:27,440 his story he did pass two polygraph 3372 02:04:29,830 --> 02:04:28,960 tests but it was discovered that there 3373 02:04:31,910 --> 02:04:29,840 was a 3374 02:04:33,750 --> 02:04:31,920 previous test from which the polygraph 3375 02:04:35,830 --> 02:04:33,760 examiner concluded that walton was 3376 02:04:37,910 --> 02:04:35,840 attempting to perpetrate a hoax you 3377 02:04:39,589 --> 02:04:37,920 don't hear about that it was discovered 3378 02:04:40,629 --> 02:04:39,599 that the questions used in the later 3379 02:04:42,629 --> 02:04:40,639 tests 3380 02:04:44,470 --> 02:04:42,639 had to be approved by walton himself 3381 02:04:46,550 --> 02:04:44,480 before the test could be administered 3382 02:04:48,149 --> 02:04:46,560 you don't hear about that that's 3383 02:04:51,030 --> 02:04:48,159 actually standard 3384 02:04:52,709 --> 02:04:51,040 lie detector protocol though to agree on 3385 02:04:54,310 --> 02:04:52,719 the questions 3386 02:04:55,510 --> 02:04:54,320 but sorry i didn't mean to sidetrack you 3387 02:04:58,229 --> 02:04:55,520 please continue 3388 02:05:01,589 --> 02:04:58,239 i'm not a polygraph expert but 3389 02:05:02,629 --> 02:05:01,599 i have had a polygraph myself actually 3390 02:05:04,390 --> 02:05:02,639 and 3391 02:05:06,950 --> 02:05:04,400 that was not my experience with it but 3392 02:05:09,669 --> 02:05:06,960 maybe it might depend on what location 3393 02:05:12,229 --> 02:05:09,679 or who's doing the tests true yeah 3394 02:05:13,270 --> 02:05:12,239 he was on a television show with the 3395 02:05:17,589 --> 02:05:13,280 truth 3396 02:05:19,430 -->

--> 02:05:24,400 with them concluded that there was no 3400 02:05:27,910 --> 02:05:26,239 corroborating evidence that walton had 3401 02:05:28,709 --> 02:05:27,920 boarded a ufo 3402 02:05:32,310 --> 02:05:28,719 it 3403 02:05:34,390 --> 02:05:32,320 issues about 3404 02:05:36,870 --> 02:05:34,400 he tried to gain media exposure but was 3405 02:05:40,149 --> 02:05:36,880 turned down by the radio station he'd 3406 02:05:42,629 --> 02:05:40,159 actually been caught pled guilty forging 3407 02:05:45,669 --> 02:05:42,639 payroll checks this is walton 3408 02:05:48,070 --> 02:05:45,679 this is walton okay sure okay so i mean 3409 02:05:51,350 --> 02:05:48,080 this is actually something that you can 3410 02:05:53,109 --> 02:05:51,360 look up and you can find factually so 3411 02:05:55,030 --> 02:05:53,119 yeah it was a moment of truth in which 3412 02:05:55,910 --> 02:05:55,040 he he was asked on whether or not he was 3413 02:05:58,390 --> 02:05:55,920 on a 3414 02:05:59,510 --> 02:05:58,400 a ufo and he said yes and it was scored 3415 02:06:01,350 --> 02:05:59,520 false 3416 02:06:03,589 --> 02:06:01,360 but and then they say well there was no 3417 02:06:05,189 --> 02:06:03,599 money involved but he and his crew stood 3418 02:06:06,709 --> 02:06:05,199 to gain up to a hundred thousand dollars 3419 02:06:08,070 --> 02:06:06,719 for submitting their story to national 3420 02:06:10,070 --> 02:06:08,080 enquirer 3421 02:06:11,830 --> 02:06:10,080 and i mean this just sort of kind of 3422 02:06:13,750 --> 02:06:11,840 goes on and on and on i mean if somebody 3423 02:06:16,550 --> 02:06:13,760 came up to you you know after stealing 3424 02:06:18,790 --> 02:06:16,560 your your checkbook and attempting to 3425 02:06:21,510 --> 02:06:18,800 cash checks and and then said well hey i 3426 02:06:23,030 --> 02:06:21,520 saw a ufo would you give me the uh you 3427 02:06:25,189 --> 02:06:23,040 know can you please give me the prize 3428 02:06:27,030 --> 02:06:25,199 for it or how many people are going to 3429 02:06:29,750 --> 02:06:27,040 be inclined to believe it 3430 02:06:31,669 --> 02:06:29,760 now this could be a case of maybe you 3431 02:06:32,390 --> 02:06:31,679 know boy cried wolf type of thing or 3432 02:06:33,430 --> 02:06:32,400 just 3433 02:06:35,430 --> 02:06:33,440 you know that 3434 02:06:37,910 --> 02:06:35,440 unreliable people can still have genuine 3435 02:06:40,550 --> 02:06:37,920 experiences but it really does cast 3436 02:06:42,709 --> 02:06:40,560 appall of unreliability on the story 3437 02:06:45,109 --> 02:06:42,719 that a lot of people aren't aware of 3438 02:06:47,350 --> 02:06:45,119 now my understanding was that walton had 3439 02:06:48,870 --> 02:06:47,360 taken more than one lie detector test 3440 02:06:51,430 --> 02:06:48,880 and the results 3441 02:06:53,669 --> 02:06:51,440 varied but even then a lie detector is 3442 02:06:54,550 --> 02:06:53,679 not a hundred percent accurate or even 3443 02:06:56,470 --> 02:06:54,560 close 3444 02:06:58,950 --> 02:06:56,480 on the other hand if you see evidence of 3445 02:07:00,390 --> 02:06:58,960 possible deception that has to be an 3446 02:07:01,990 --> 02:07:00,400 area of concern 3447 02:07:04,069 --> 02:07:02,000 oh definitely and 3448 02:07:05,910 --> 02:07:04,079 when you look at what it just boils down 3449 02:07:08,229 --> 02:07:05,920 to is his credibility 3450 02:07:09,270 --> 02:07:08,239 here you have to take him at faith 3451 02:07:12,390 --> 02:07:09,280 because 3452 02:07:15,109 --> 02:07:12,400 he may have disappeared for several days 3453 02:07:18,470 --> 02:07:15,119 but nobody knows what he did during that 3454 02:07:21,350 --> 02:07:18,480 period and by saying i don't remember 3455 02:07:23,510 --> 02:07:21,360 that kind of closes down the discussion 3456 02:07:25,510 --> 02:07:23,520 yeah i think that's the 3457 02:07:28,069 --> 02:07:25,520 the problem here is that there's so much 3458 02:07:30,470 --> 02:07:28,079 material to go through and i 3459 02:07:32,149 --> 02:07:30,480 when i took a look i read the book 3460 02:07:34,069 --> 02:07:32,159 walton wrote and i 3461 02:07:36,149 --> 02:07:34,079 listened to him on a bunch of interviews 3462 02:07:40,390 --> 02:07:36,159 and i kind of looked at everything and i 3463 02:07:42,550 --> 02:07:40,400 really didn't find him incredible 3464 02:07:45,270 --> 02:07:42,560 and i had taken some courses in lie 3465 02:07:48,149 --> 02:07:45,280 detector and interrogation stuff so that 3466 02:07:49,830 --> 02:07:48,159 stuff caught my attention especially 3467 02:07:51,990 --> 02:07:49,840 but you know i can see how people would 3468 02:07:54,069 --> 02:07:52,000 come to different conclusions about this 3469 02:07:55,270 --> 02:07:54,079 given the nature of what he said 3470 02:07:57,669 --> 02:07:55,280 happened 3471 02:07:58,950 --> 02:07:57,679 but i think for people who aren't into 3472 02:08:00,390 --> 02:07:58,960 ufos 3473 02:08:02,950 --> 02:08:00,400 they're not going to want to take the 3474 02:08:04,470 --> 02:08:02,960 time to sift through all this stuff and 3475 02:08:06,550 --> 02:08:04,480 that might be why 3476 02:08:09,030 --> 02:08:06,560 you see a lot of people just kind of 3477 02:08:11,830 --> 02:08:09,040 writing off ufos all together because 3478 02:08:13,990 --> 02:08:11,840 there's massive amounts of materials and 3479 02:08:15,189 --> 02:08:14,000 counter claims and competing claims to 3480 02:08:17,750 --> 02:08:15,199 go through 3481 02:08:19,830 --> 02:08:17,760 even to come to the conclusion that you 3482 02:08:21,589 --> 02:08:19,840 just don't know what happened 3483 02:08:23,430 --> 02:08:21,599 yeah that's true that's why i tried to 3484 02:08:25,109 --> 02:08:23,440 keep the articles on the site fairly 3485 02:08:25,910 --> 02:08:25,119 short and have sifted through all of 3486 02:08:27,510 --> 02:08:25,920 that 3487 02:08:29,189 --> 02:08:27,520 in the first place to sort of show okay 3488 02:08:30,310 --> 02:08:29,199 well there's this and then there's that 3489 02:08:33,270 --> 02:08:30,320 and then there's this and then there's 3490 02:08:35,669 --> 02:08:33,280 that and when you're looking at 3491 02:08:37,350 --> 02:08:35,679 the sort of franchise that walton has on 3492 02:08:38,390 --> 02:08:37,360 the fire in the sky 3493 02:08:41,189 --> 02:08:38,400 thing and 3494 02:08:44,390 --> 02:08:41,199 the his presence out there in the ufo 3495 02:08:46,709 --> 02:08:44,400 community and the number of people who 3496 02:08:49,189 --> 02:08:46,719 see that and not the other side of it 3497 02:08:51,350 --> 02:08:49,199 then you've got a large group of people 3498 02:08:53,270 --> 02:08:51,360 who are believers compared to just a few 3499 02:08:56,069 --> 02:08:53,280 who bothered to dig into it 3500 02:08:57,270 --> 02:08:56,079 and see the other side of it so that's 3501 02:08:59,990 --> 02:08:57,280 why i've been accused of being a 3502 02:09:01,830 --> 02:09:00,000 debunker i'm i'm not making a judgment 3503 02:09:03,830 --> 02:09:01,840 call i don't know maybe this did happen 3504 02:09:06,310 --> 02:09:03,840 to him maybe it didn't but i think 3505 02:09:08,709 --> 02:09:06,320 people should know about the other side 3506 02:09:10,550 --> 02:09:08,719 of things definitely before they 3507 02:09:12,229 --> 02:09:10,560 they make up their mind about what they 3508 02:09:13,510 --> 02:09:12,239 believe 3509 02:09:15,030 --> 02:09:13,520 i think that by the way randall that 3510 02:09:16,550 --> 02:09:15,040 that should be the case with 3511 02:09:18,950 --> 02:09:16,560 virtually anything 3512 02:09:20,470 --> 02:09:18,960 i often call myself a skeptic and uh 3513 02:09:21,669 --> 02:09:20,480 many people say well mikey you know 3514 02:09:24,310 --> 02:09:21,679 you're not a skeptic in the sense of 3515 02:09:26,149 --> 02:09:24,320 like modern skepticism and proudly i 3516 02:09:27,189 --> 02:09:26,159 will retort that 3517 02:09:28,310 --> 02:09:27,199 people who make that assertion are 3518 02:09:29,910 --> 02:09:28,320 correct 3519 02:09:31,430 --> 02:09:29,920 modern skeptics and again marcelo 3520 02:09:32,550 --> 02:09:31,440 troutsey had and i want to come back 3521 02:09:34,069 --> 02:09:32,560 around to travis here in a moment 3522 02:09:35,910 --> 02:09:34,079 because i want to weigh in on that for 3523 02:09:37,109 --> 02:09:35,920 just a moment as well but but i will say 3524 02:09:39,109 --> 02:09:37,119 that there have been many people over 3525 02:09:40,470 --> 02:09:39,119 the years who have been skeptical but 3526 02:09:42,709 --> 02:09:40,480 who feel that there are many in the 3527 02:09:44,870 --> 02:09:42,719 modern skeptic movement that are rather 3528 02:09:47,990 --> 02:09:44,880 than being skeptical are essentially 3529 02:09:51,270 --> 02:09:48,000 playing to their predispositions toward 3530 02:09:53,109 --> 02:09:51,280 belief in disbelief or you know playing 3531 02:09:53,990 --> 02:09:53,119 off of their own biased perspective that 3532 02:09:57,030 --> 02:09:54,000 well 3533 02:09:59,109 --> 02:09:57,040 if all you know if 99 of all ufos can be 3534 02:10:00,709 --> 02:09:59,119 explained then why not 100 percent uh 3535 02:10:03,350 --> 02:10:00,719 trudzy had left 3536 02:10:05,589 --> 02:10:03,360 uh cycop uh just after its founding he 3537 02:10:07,270 --> 02:10:05,599 was one of the early members and he left 3538 02:10:08,550 --> 02:10:07,280 very shortly thereafter because he said 3539 02:10:11,750 --> 02:10:08,560 it was clear to me that rather than 3540 02:10:13,669 --> 02:10:11,760 having a honest skeptical debate many uh 3541 02:10:15,910 --> 02:10:13,679 who were on the class being i think one 3542 02:10:17,589 --> 02:10:15,920 of the people he was discussing many had 3543 02:10:19,510 --> 02:10:17,599 already made up their minds what they 3544 02:10:21,589 --> 02:10:19,520 believed and were not following through 3545 02:10:23,669 --> 02:10:21,599 in a unbiased way they were trying to 3546 02:10:24,950 --> 02:10:23,679 fulfill their expectations based on 3547 02:10:27,589 --> 02:10:24,960 their bias 3548 02:10:29,830 --> 02:10:27,599 now let's break sure we'll continue with 3549 02:10:39,430 --> 02:10:29,840 that with micah

listening to 3655 02:15:00,550 --> 02:14:58,550 you were saying co-host micah hanks i 3656 02:15:02,310 --> 02:15:00,560 was just kind of outlining again that as 3657 02:15:03,990 --> 02:15:02,320 randall had said in the last segment we 3658 02:15:06,390 --> 02:15:04,000 all need to be skeptical about all 3659 02:15:08,149 --> 02:15:06,400 things and and again i think that you 3660 02:15:09,910 --> 02:15:08,159 can be skeptical without being 3661 02:15:11,189 --> 02:15:09,920 predisposed toward 3662 02:15:13,750 --> 02:15:11,199 debunking 3663 02:15:15,589 --> 02:15:13,760 every extraordinary claim uh i'd cited 3664 02:15:17,270 --> 02:15:15,599 marcelo trudzie as being an individual 3665 02:15:18,790 --> 02:15:17,280 who throughout his life had said well 3666 02:15:20,310 --> 02:15:18,800 sometimes and he initially wanted this 3667 02:15:21,910 --> 02:15:20,320 for the cycop journal which i guess 3668 02:15:23,830 --> 02:15:21,920 really i kind of became skeptical 3669 02:15:25,910 --> 02:15:23,840 inquirer he said he wanted there to be a 3670 02:15:28,550 --> 02:15:25,920 journal that could at least look at 3671 02:15:29,990 --> 02:15:28,560 some claims as being extraordinary but 3672 02:15:31,350 --> 02:15:30,000 when there wasn't enough evidence to 3673 02:15:32,709 --> 02:15:31,360 dismiss them outright that we could 3674 02:15:35,270 --> 02:15:32,719 leave open the possibility that there 3675 02:15:36,470 --> 02:15:35,280 was a verifiable phenomena nonetheless 3676 02:15:37,830 --> 02:15:36,480 and he found that many of his fellow 3677 02:15:40,229 --> 02:15:37,840 psychot members 3678 02:15:41,109 --> 02:15:40,239 were unwilling to bend on that and that 3679 02:15:43,830 --> 02:15:41,119 all 3680 02:15:45,589 --> 02:15:43,840 claims had to take a dismissive uh 3681 02:15:48,870 --> 02:15:45,599 skeptical attitude i do think that that 3682 02:15:51,030 --> 02:15:48,880 highlights too much skeptic bias among 3683 02:15:53,510 --> 02:15:51,040 modern skeptics and so in terms of being 3684 02:15:55,510 --> 02:15:53,520 truly skeptical as i like to say that i 3685 02:15:56,790 --> 02:15:55,520 am i try to ask hard questions i'm 3686 02:15:59,030 --> 02:15:56,800 seeing a lot of that from randall and 3687 02:16:01,189 --> 02:15:59,040 sue too that they're willing to ask hard 3688 02:16:02,950 --> 02:16:01,199 questions about a phenomenon whether it 3689 02:16:04,629 --> 02:16:02,960 be ufos or whatever else that we can 3690 02:16:05,430 --> 02:16:04,639 also be willing to accept there may be 3691 02:16:08,149 --> 02:16:05,440 enough 3692 02:16:10,229 --> 02:16:08,159 to discuss apart from those instances 3693 02:16:11,750 --> 02:16:10,239 that we have to be doubtful about now 3694 02:16:13,830 --> 02:16:11,760 coming back to travis walton for a 3695 02:16:15,750 --> 02:16:13,840 second the one time i was compared to 3696 02:16:18,550 --> 02:16:15,760 philip j class was when i wrote an 3697 02:16:20,709 --> 02:16:18,560 article years ago for ufo magazine 3698 02:16:22,470 --> 02:16:20,719 talking about similarities between the 3699 02:16:23,350 --> 02:16:22,480 description of the craft that walton had 3700 02:16:25,510 --> 02:16:23,360 seen 3701 02:16:27,910 --> 02:16:25,520 and various plasma 3702 02:16:29,750 --> 02:16:27,920 formations akin to ball lightning it 3703 02:16:30,870 --> 02:16:29,760 seems obvious to me now why i would have 3704 02:16:32,549 --> 02:16:30,880 written that 3705 02:16:34,070 --> 02:16:32,559 because of my long-held interest in the 3706 02:16:35,750 --> 02:16:34,080 brown mountain lights 3707 02:16:37,110 --> 02:16:35,760 unfortunately philip class had also 3708 02:16:38,230 --> 02:16:37,120 proposed that many ufos could be 3709 02:16:40,549 --> 02:16:38,240 explained 3710 02:16:42,150 --> 02:16:40,559 through various plasmas and hence people 3711 02:16:44,469 --> 02:16:42,160 had said you know you're just as bad as 3712 02:16:46,070 --> 02:16:44,479 philip j class how dare you cast any 3713 02:16:46,950 --> 02:16:46,080 doubt on travis walton well i've got to 3714 02:16:48,870 --> 02:16:46,960 say 3715 02:16:51,270 --> 02:16:48,880 i've met travis on numerous occasions 3716 02:16:53,589 --> 02:16:51,280 i've had dinner with him uh we've sat 3717 02:16:54,870 --> 02:16:53,599 down and had coffee together 3718 02:16:56,790 --> 02:16:54,880 very seldom when we're together do we 3719 02:16:58,790 --> 02:16:56,800 talk about ufos interestingly we are 3720 02:17:01,190 --> 02:16:58,800 usually talking about other things and i 3721 02:17:02,469 --> 02:17:01,200 actually like him a lot i have had no 3722 02:17:04,709 --> 02:17:02,479 reason to 3723 02:17:07,110 --> 02:17:04,719 particularly doubt that he had had some 3724 02:17:09,830 --> 02:17:07,120 experience and that is by the way with 3725 02:17:12,549 --> 02:17:09,840 full knowledge of class and others 3726 02:17:14,469 --> 02:17:12,559 investigations and the the various red 3727 02:17:15,750 --> 02:17:14,479 flags that have been raised you know one 3728 02:17:18,549 --> 02:17:15,760 thing i'll point out for instance is 3729 02:17:19,990 --> 02:17:18,559 that uh travis had apparently had a a 3730 02:17:21,990 --> 02:17:20,000 pact with his brother 3731 02:17:23,750 --> 02:17:22,000 that they ever had an opportunity to see 3732 02:17:25,750 --> 02:17:23,760 a ufo they'd get as close to it as 3733 02:17:27,669 --> 02:17:25,760 possible and some have looked at that as 3734 02:17:28,950 --> 02:17:27,679 being much like they looked at the 3735 02:17:30,549 --> 02:17:28,960 famous disappearance of frederick 3736 02:17:32,309 --> 02:17:30,559 valentich as being well he already had 3737 02:17:34,309 --> 02:17:32,319 an interest in ufos 3738 02:17:36,070 --> 02:17:34,319 prior to this alleged experience that to 3739 02:17:37,910 --> 02:17:36,080 me doesn't necessarily mean that nothing 3740 02:17:39,910 --> 02:17:37,920 actually happened so again i'm not 3741 02:17:42,389 --> 02:17:39,920 trying to necessarily bolster travis's 3742 02:17:44,230 --> 02:17:42,399 claims what i do know is that there are 3743 02:17:46,469 --> 02:17:44,240 some interesting points about his 3744 02:17:48,230 --> 02:17:46,479 experiences that he says have happened 3745 02:17:49,429 --> 02:17:48,240 to him uh there are some questions that 3746 02:17:51,190 --> 02:17:49,439 have been raised by class and others 3747 02:17:52,870 --> 02:17:51,200 over the years i think it's fair to ask 3748 02:17:55,110 --> 02:17:52,880 those questions but by the same token 3749 02:17:56,790 --> 02:17:55,120 knowing travis i find him to be you know 3750 02:17:58,469 --> 02:17:56,800 an interesting person i find him to be a 3751 02:17:59,750 --> 02:17:58,479 person who seems credible 3752 02:18:01,270 --> 02:17:59,760 i've never gotten the impression that he 3753 02:18:02,950 --> 02:18:01,280 was just in this just trying to make 3754 02:18:04,309 --> 02:18:02,960 money but yeah he's written a book and 3755 02:18:05,669 --> 02:18:04,319 he tries to sell books and again i'd 3756 02:18:07,349 --> 02:18:05,679 come back to that same 3757 02:18:09,429 --> 02:18:07,359 argument are there better ways that 3758 02:18:10,790 --> 02:18:09,439 someone could you know make a career 3759 02:18:12,709 --> 02:18:10,800 selling books are there better things 3760 02:18:14,070 --> 02:18:12,719 someone could write about and promote if 3761 02:18:16,230 --> 02:18:14,080 they really were just in this trying to 3762 02:18:17,750 --> 02:18:16,240 make money so maybe that could be said 3763 02:18:19,910 --> 02:18:17,760 about travis as well 3764 02:18:22,870 --> 02:18:19,920 who knows i like him i find him to be a 3765 02:18:25,509 --> 02:18:22,880 nice person and i nonetheless will say 3766 02:18:27,429 --> 02:18:25,519 that it's fair to ask hard questions 3767 02:18:28,950 --> 02:18:27,439 about any ufo claim 3768 02:18:30,469 --> 02:18:28,960 and that's not an attack against him any 3769 02:18:31,910 --> 02:18:30,479 more than it is an endorsement it's just 3770 02:18:33,110 --> 02:18:31,920 that it is fair to ask those kind of 3771 02:18:35,030 --> 02:18:33,120 questions if we're really going to be 3772 02:18:37,349 --> 02:18:35,040 honest as researchers those kind of 3773 02:18:39,509 --> 02:18:37,359 questions have to be asked that said i 3774 02:18:41,669 --> 02:18:39,519 do think there are certain researchers 3775 02:18:43,990 --> 02:18:41,679 these days that based on their pet 3776 02:18:45,349 --> 02:18:44,000 theories about ufos or based on their 3777 02:18:48,150 --> 02:18:45,359 relationships with certain individuals 3778 02:18:51,910 --> 02:18:48,160 in the community they become so 3779 02:18:53,270 --> 02:18:51,920 so beholden to upholding a person or a 3780 02:18:56,230 --> 02:18:53,280 cause that they become almost 3781 02:18:57,509 --> 02:18:56,240 evangelical about their involvement and 3782 02:18:59,110 --> 02:18:57,519 i think that that's kind of a problem 3783 02:19:01,349 --> 02:18:59,120 because when you become 3784 02:19:03,270 --> 02:19:01,359 evangelical and you have to fight for a 3785 02:19:05,349 --> 02:19:03,280 cause and you have to maintain your 3786 02:19:07,110 --> 02:19:05,359 position and hold your ground even if 3787 02:19:10,469 --> 02:19:07,120 there appears to be evidence to the 3788 02:19:12,950 --> 02:19:10,479 contrary that surfaces much later 3789 02:19:15,110 --> 02:19:12,960 that i think is in its own way just as 3790 02:19:16,389 --> 02:19:15,120 dangerous as the kind of extreme bias 3791 02:19:18,150 --> 02:19:16,399 that we find among the quote-unquote 3792 02:19:19,669 --> 02:19:18,160 guerrilla skeptics today so 3793 02:19:21,990 --> 02:19:19,679 we have to be skeptical we have to be 3794 02:19:23,190 --> 02:19:22,000 able to have a fair and very balanced 3795 02:19:24,549 --> 02:19:23,200 argument and we also have to our 3796 02:19:27,190 --> 02:19:24,559 discussion we have to also be able to 3797 02:19:28,230 --> 02:19:27,200 change our views in lieu of new evidence 3798 02:19:30,549 --> 02:19:28,240 here here 3799 02:19:31,750 --> 02:19:30,559 they're there where where 3800 02:19:35,110 --> 02:19:31,760 who who 3801 02:19:38,389 --> 02:19:36,709 i'll just tell you very briefly i'm on 3802 02:19:40,150 --> 02:19:38,399 the fence about 3803 02:19:42,549 --> 02:19:40,160 travis walton he seemed like a nice 3804 02:19:44,549 --> 02:19:42,559 enough guy he seems sincere enough but 3805 02:19:46,549 --> 02:19:44,559 he's been telling the story for decades 3806 02:19:49,590 --> 02:19:46,559 so after you've rehearsed the story for 3807 02:19:52,469 --> 02:19:49,600 decades you can sound quite sincere 3808 02:19:54,710 --> 02:19:52,479 but it also stands alone 3809 02:19:56,710 --> 02:19:54,720 by being someone who 3810 02:19:58,550 --> 02:19:56,720 just disappears somewhere 3811 02:20:01,429 --> 02:19:58,560 and comes back and says well 3812 02:20:03,349 --> 02:20:01,439 i guess i was aboard a ufo right and 3813 02:20:05,510 --> 02:20:03,359 well i mean there have been some people 3814 02:20:08,790 --> 02:20:05,520 who say they even know where he was 3815 02:20:11,030 --> 02:20:08,800 during that time period and it wasn't on 3816 02:20:12,230 --> 02:20:11,040 a ufo and of course 3817 02:20:14,070 --> 02:20:12,240 you can say well you know he didn't 3818 02:20:16,870 --> 02:20:14,080 stand to make much money at it but 3819 02:20:19,030 --> 02:20:16,880 inquirer did pay them all five thousand 3820 02:20:20,790 --> 02:20:19,040 dollars at the time and probably had 3821 02:20:21,910 --> 02:20:20,800 them sign some piece of paper declaring 3822 02:20:23,990 --> 02:20:21,920 it was true 3823 02:20:26,870 --> 02:20:24,000 and fire in the sky did go on to gross 3824 02:20:29,270 --> 02:20:26,880 19 million nearly 20 million dollars 3825 02:20:30,870 --> 02:20:29,280 then it's they released it on vhs and 3826 02:20:33,190 --> 02:20:30,880 now it's being 3827 02:20:36,150 --> 02:20:33,200 released again on dvd and he's talking 3828 02:20:37,670 --> 02:20:36,160 about yet another new movie a remake the 3829 02:20:39,910 --> 02:20:37,680 book itself has been re-released and 3830 02:20:42,230 --> 02:20:39,920 he's still out doing conferences and 3831 02:20:44,150 --> 02:20:42,240 stuff where he gets paid so i mean sure 3832 02:20:46,710 --> 02:20:44,160 maybe he hasn't made millions at it but 3833 02:20:47,990 --> 02:20:46,720 over a number of years it's it's 3834 02:20:49,270 --> 02:20:48,000 turned out to be a pretty good little 3835 02:20:51,830 --> 02:20:49,280 franchise 3836 02:20:54,150 --> 02:20:51,840 well certainly he was a total unknown 3837 02:20:55,349 --> 02:20:54,160 before this happened so he writes a book 3838 02:20:59,270 --> 02:20:55,359 he gets 3839 02:21:02,790 --> 02:20:59,280 public appearances paid lectures he also 3840 02:21:05,030 --> 02:21:02,800 has been running a ufo conference 3841 02:21:07,190 --> 02:21:05,040 now that is not necessarily a big money 3842 02:21:09,270 --> 02:21:07,200 maker but look 3843 02:21:11,830 --> 02:21:09,280 it's giving somebody who otherwise would 3844 02:21:14,550 --> 02:21:11,840 just be another guy 3845 02:21:17,110 --> 02:21:14,560 his not 15 minutes of fame maybe 30 or 3846 02:21:18,389 --> 02:21:17,120 45 minutes well we're looking at 40 3847 02:21:22,070 --> 02:21:18,399 years something 3848 02:21:23,110 --> 02:21:22,080 now right i have to think here over 40 3849 02:21:25,110 --> 02:21:23,120 years 3850 02:21:26,950 --> 02:21:25,120 yeah i can 3851 02:21:28,710 --> 02:21:26,960 tell you how many copies of that book he 3852 02:21:31,590 --> 02:21:28,720 sold but it could be a fairly steady 3853 02:21:33,750 --> 02:21:31,600 seller i don't know but it provides 3854 02:21:34,950 --> 02:21:33,760 something for him 3855 02:21:36,870 --> 02:21:34,960 other than 3856 02:21:38,790 --> 02:21:36,880 his normal stuff which would make him a 3857 02:21:41,349 --> 02:21:38,800 pretty unknown person 3858 02:21:43,750 --> 02:21:41,359 sure and you know all the best con men 3859 02:21:46,150 --> 02:21:43,760 are likable so i mean sure he might be a 3860 02:21:47,750 --> 02:21:46,160 perfectly likable guy and i don't think 3861 02:21:50,389 --> 02:21:47,760 he should necessarily be held 3862 02:21:52,389 --> 02:21:50,399 accountable his personality today for 3863 02:21:55,590 --> 02:21:52,399 something he did a long time ago back in 3864 02:21:57,190 --> 02:21:55,600 the mid 70s you know i i don't like to 3865 02:21:59,750 --> 02:21:57,200 bring that part of it up but you have to 3866 02:22:02,150 --> 02:21:59,760 look at this in terms of the climate of 3867 02:22:03,910 --> 02:22:02,160 the times and what happened at the time 3868 02:22:05,670 --> 02:22:03,920 because that's where it all began you 3869 02:22:07,990 --> 02:22:05,680 can't say well that never happened 3870 02:22:09,830 --> 02:22:08,000 because he's a nice guy now 3871 02:22:12,870 --> 02:22:09,840 the whole thing is one long chain of 3872 02:22:15,510 --> 02:22:12,880 events that really has a questionable 3873 02:22:17,110 --> 02:22:15,520 foundation in my mind and yet still 3874 02:22:18,070 --> 02:22:17,120 could be true i mean 3875 02:22:19,670 --> 02:22:18,080 you know 3876 02:22:21,349 --> 02:22:19,680 it could have been a bunch of guys in a 3877 02:22:24,070 --> 02:22:21,359 chain gang and it could still be have 3878 02:22:25,110 --> 02:22:24,080 been a real ufo i mean we don't we don't 3879 02:22:27,590 --> 02:22:25,120 know 3880 02:22:30,150 --> 02:22:27,600 it could have been a ufo 3881 02:22:31,110 --> 02:22:30,160 it could have been something related 3882 02:22:32,710 --> 02:22:31,120 to 3883 02:22:34,790 --> 02:22:32,720 what he claims the experience and then 3884 02:22:37,349 --> 02:22:34,800 he embellished it over the years or 3885 02:22:39,030 --> 02:22:37,359 embellished at the time to to give maybe 3886 02:22:41,349 --> 02:22:39,040 he hoped more credibility to what 3887 02:22:43,429 --> 02:22:41,359 happened if we're really lucky maybe 3888 02:22:45,349 --> 02:22:43,439 someone will turn up a couple of slides 3889 02:22:47,510 --> 02:22:45,359 and then we'll know for sure 3890 02:22:49,190 --> 02:22:47,520 never happen yes there's always a slide 3891 02:22:52,150 --> 02:22:49,200 in an attic that's the solution right 3892 02:22:53,349 --> 02:22:52,160 there let's look at every attic in the 3893 02:22:55,429 --> 02:22:53,359 world 3894 02:22:57,830 --> 02:22:55,439 and see if there are slides there 3895 02:22:59,590 --> 02:22:57,840 especially those showing visits to 3896 02:23:02,389 --> 02:22:59,600 museums 3897 02:23:04,469 --> 02:23:02,399 oh man you know i mean okay let me just 3898 02:23:06,469 --> 02:23:04,479 put this out there too as far as photos 3899 02:23:08,469 --> 02:23:06,479 that we hope will eventually turn up 3900 02:23:10,070 --> 02:23:08,479 you know one one of the issues i have is 3901 02:23:11,349 --> 02:23:10,080 that uh there have been a few people 3902 02:23:12,710 --> 02:23:11,359 over the years also who have said that 3903 02:23:14,950 --> 02:23:12,720 they do have some pretty good evidence 3904 02:23:16,469 --> 02:23:14,960 of ufos but they don't seem forthcoming 3905 02:23:17,990 --> 02:23:16,479 with that evidence ray stamford has said 3906 02:23:19,429 --> 02:23:18,000 for years that he's got a photograph of 3907 02:23:22,469 --> 02:23:19,439 whatever apparently showed up down there 3908 02:23:25,110 --> 02:23:22,479 that lani zamora saw uh the famous um 3909 02:23:27,190 --> 02:23:25,120 lonnie zamora incident or the socorro 3910 02:23:29,270 --> 02:23:27,200 right score ufo i guess you know again 3911 02:23:31,110 --> 02:23:29,280 all these instances have different names 3912 02:23:33,110 --> 02:23:31,120 but i'm talking about the lonnie zamora 3913 02:23:34,870 --> 02:23:33,120 encounter but you know it it troubles me 3914 02:23:36,950 --> 02:23:34,880 when there are people who say i'm not 3915 02:23:38,630 --> 02:23:36,960 attacking ray either i'm just saying if 3916 02:23:40,389 --> 02:23:38,640 we've got good data 3917 02:23:42,389 --> 02:23:40,399 if we've got any kind of evidence 3918 02:23:44,550 --> 02:23:42,399 photographic or otherwise 3919 02:23:47,349 --> 02:23:44,560 and it's purportedly known to exist why 3920 02:23:49,270 --> 02:23:47,359 is that kept from public view i do sort 3921 02:23:51,670 --> 02:23:49,280 of hope that maybe at some point that a 3922 02:23:53,270 --> 02:23:51,680 slide will turn up a video a piece of 3923 02:23:55,510 --> 02:23:53,280 metallic debris or something that will 3924 02:23:58,070 --> 02:23:55,520 at least lend some sort of physical 3925 02:24:00,070 --> 02:23:58,080 evidence i've been presented with 3926 02:24:02,230 --> 02:24:00,080 purported physical evidence like this in 3927 02:24:03,990 --> 02:24:02,240 the past uh one notable experience 3928 02:24:06,469 --> 02:24:04,000 involving a metallic 3929 02:24:07,750 --> 02:24:06,479 object that uh i don't think uh really 3930 02:24:09,190 --> 02:24:07,760 is best 3931 02:24:11,270 --> 02:24:09,200 discussed as being representative of any 3932 02:24:13,110 -->

4046 02:28:57,750 --> 02:28:55,750 hi this is joshua p warren author of the 4047 02:29:00,150 --> 02:28:57,760 poor man's paranormal and you're 4048 02:29:03,690 --> 02:29:00,160 listening to the paracast the gold 4049 02:29:11,910 --> 02:29:03,700 standard of paranormal radio 4050 02:29:15,110 --> 02:29:13,510 so you were telling us 4051 02:29:18,230 --> 02:29:15,120 about possible 4052 02:29:19,270 --> 02:29:18,240 physical evidence micah hanks yeah tell 4053 02:29:22,150 --> 02:29:19,280 us more 4054 02:29:23,830 --> 02:29:22,160 i'm really asking is there good evidence 4055 02:29:25,510 --> 02:29:23,840 you know again we hear stories about 4056 02:29:26,870 --> 02:29:25,520 things now i have a few friends who have 4057 02:29:28,550 --> 02:29:26,880 visited with ray stanford and who have 4058 02:29:30,630 --> 02:29:28,560 said that they've seen a photo that uh 4059 02:29:32,790 --> 02:29:30,640 purports to show an object similar to 4060 02:29:35,190 --> 02:29:32,800 that which lani zamora described seeing 4061 02:29:37,349 --> 02:29:35,200 this is one of the classic ufo incidents 4062 02:29:39,429 --> 02:29:37,359 of course this was one that j allen 4063 02:29:41,270 --> 02:29:39,439 heineck had also investigated during his 4064 02:29:44,150 --> 02:29:41,280 time with blue book remains i think one 4065 02:29:45,910 --> 02:29:44,160 of the more fascinating ufo encounters 4066 02:29:47,750 --> 02:29:45,920 of all time and i know that ray stanford 4067 02:29:50,070 --> 02:29:47,760 feels at times that he has been treated 4068 02:29:51,670 --> 02:29:50,080 badly by other researchers and is 4069 02:29:53,830 --> 02:29:51,680 therefore resist or to the idea of 4070 02:29:55,349 --> 02:29:53,840 releasing this photo that he says he has 4071 02:29:56,630 --> 02:29:55,359 so i don't doubt that he has it but i am 4072 02:29:58,469 --> 02:29:56,640 troubled by the idea that there are all 4073 02:30:01,270 --> 02:29:58,479 these instances where there is allegedly 4074 02:30:03,110 --> 02:30:01,280 debris or slag or photos or anything 4075 02:30:04,870 --> 02:30:03,120 that might offer some credible tangible 4076 02:30:06,710 --> 02:30:04,880 evidence of a ufo and then you've got 4077 02:30:08,469 --> 02:30:06,720 guys like david marlar today who i've 4078 02:30:10,070 --> 02:30:08,479 spoken with and he says micah these days 4079 02:30:11,670 --> 02:30:10,080 a photo isn't good enough i mean no 4080 02:30:13,510 --> 02:30:11,680 photo in this age of digital 4081 02:30:16,790 --> 02:30:13,520 manipulation will offer good proof of a 4082 02:30:18,230 --> 02:30:16,800 ufo question really if that's true and i 4083 02:30:20,309 --> 02:30:18,240 can't say that i disagree with him i 4084 02:30:22,070 --> 02:30:20,319 mean how can we find an avenue for 4085 02:30:23,510 --> 02:30:22,080 producing good evidence of a ufo what 4086 02:30:26,070 --> 02:30:23,520 will it take to 4087 02:30:28,230 --> 02:30:26,080 bring physical proof into the equation 4088 02:30:30,230 --> 02:30:28,240 here what or any kind of good evidence 4089 02:30:32,150 --> 02:30:30,240 for that matter what do we have to have 4090 02:30:33,590 --> 02:30:32,160 in this day and age to be able to prove 4091 02:30:36,550 --> 02:30:33,600 to people hey there is some sort of 4092 02:30:38,630 --> 02:30:36,560 tangibility to this phenomenon well that 4093 02:30:41,110 --> 02:30:38,640 hinges like rupell said it hinges on the 4094 02:30:43,190 --> 02:30:41,120 word proof what is proof and 4095 02:30:45,190 --> 02:30:43,200 when asked that a lot of people sort of 4096 02:30:47,670 --> 02:30:45,200 glaze over they become a little confused 4097 02:30:49,830 --> 02:30:47,680 but really it's quite simple proof is 4098 02:30:51,990 --> 02:30:49,840 simply evidence that's sufficient to 4099 02:30:54,870 --> 02:30:52,000 justify the belief in a claim 4100 02:30:56,870 --> 02:30:54,880 now some people are going to find 4101 02:30:58,710 --> 02:30:56,880 some evidence enough and other people 4102 02:31:00,630 --> 02:30:58,720 are going to require more evidence and 4103 02:31:03,510 --> 02:31:00,640 other people are going to have very very 4104 02:31:05,349 --> 02:31:03,520 strict scientific standards 4105 02:31:07,270 --> 02:31:05,359 proof for one person isn't the same as 4106 02:31:08,710 --> 02:31:07,280 proof for another person so at some 4107 02:31:11,910 --> 02:31:08,720 point we have to ask well what's 4108 02:31:14,389 --> 02:31:11,920 reasonable if a hundred thousand people 4109 02:31:17,110 --> 02:31:14,399 say that they've had this experience 4110 02:31:19,990 --> 02:31:17,120 then is that reasonable enough to say 4111 02:31:22,950 --> 02:31:20,000 that something is going on are we being 4112 02:31:25,510 --> 02:31:22,960 visited by some sort of alien craft and 4113 02:31:27,830 --> 02:31:25,520 i think it is i don't think we need hard 4114 02:31:29,910 --> 02:31:27,840 material physical evidence to be 4115 02:31:32,469 --> 02:31:29,920 confident that we're being visited by 4116 02:31:33,670 --> 02:31:32,479 alien craft beyond that i don't know 4117 02:31:36,150 --> 02:31:33,680 where they're coming from like we've 4118 02:31:38,790 --> 02:31:36,160 talked about before but i think it's 4119 02:31:40,230 --> 02:31:38,800 pretty much unreasonable to say it's not 4120 02:31:42,150 --> 02:31:40,240 happening i would agree and randall 4121 02:31:43,990 --> 02:31:42,160 quickly to that point i'll also say 4122 02:31:46,150 --> 02:31:44,000 often cite john napier who is a 4123 02:31:48,309 --> 02:31:46,160 primatologist with the smithsonian wrote 4124 02:31:51,429 --> 02:31:48,319 a great book about bigfoot back in the 4125 02:31:52,630 --> 02:31:51,439 1970s i cite him in this discussion 4126 02:31:55,030 --> 02:31:52,640 unrelated though that subject of 4127 02:31:57,349 --> 02:31:55,040 cryptozoology may seem because as a 4128 02:31:59,030 --> 02:31:57,359 researcher he was largely considered and 4129 02:32:01,030 --> 02:31:59,040 recognized as in his writings show this 4130 02:32:03,830 --> 02:32:01,040 he was very skeptical of the subject he 4131 02:32:06,389 --> 02:32:03,840 wrote about nonetheless he also said if 4132 02:32:08,710 --> 02:32:06,399 we are to discuss something like bigfoot 4133 02:32:10,630 --> 02:32:08,720 which exists apart from consensus 4134 02:32:12,230 --> 02:32:10,640 opinions in modern science we have to 4135 02:32:13,830 --> 02:32:12,240 from time to time step into what he 4136 02:32:15,510 --> 02:32:13,840 called the goblin universe and we have 4137 02:32:17,750 --> 02:32:15,520 to be willing to discuss it on those 4138 02:32:20,469 --> 02:32:17,760 terms and so again i think to discuss a 4139 02:32:23,030 --> 02:32:20,479 subject like ufos for instance is not 4140 02:32:26,389 --> 02:32:23,040 nor it should be misconstrued as being a 4141 02:32:27,670 --> 02:32:26,399 fantastic belief in some fantastic 4142 02:32:29,830 --> 02:32:27,680 possibility for which there's no 4143 02:32:31,190 --> 02:32:29,840 evidence i think that we sometimes have 4144 02:32:33,110 --> 02:32:31,200 to state very clearly that as you've 4145 02:32:34,309 --> 02:32:33,120 pointed out randall and this mirrors 4146 02:32:35,910 --> 02:32:34,319 things that sue has said over the course 4147 02:32:38,070 --> 02:32:35,920 of the conversation too 4148 02:32:40,309 --> 02:32:38,080 we really sometimes need to recognize 4149 02:32:41,670 --> 02:32:40,319 that despite there being that lack of 4150 02:32:43,270 --> 02:32:41,680 proof that would you know satisfy 4151 02:32:44,389 --> 02:32:43,280 physicistic chemists something along 4152 02:32:46,710 --> 02:32:44,399 those lines that there is enough 4153 02:32:48,389 --> 02:32:46,720 anecdotal data to substantiate a 4154 02:32:49,830 --> 02:32:48,399 phenomena does seem to exist and there's 4155 02:32:51,990 --> 02:32:49,840 observational data that should be 4156 02:32:54,150 --> 02:32:52,000 considered and now we can step into that 4157 02:32:56,469 --> 02:32:54,160 realm i call it the goblin universe if 4158 02:32:57,990 --> 02:32:56,479 you want but let's say we have to deal 4159 02:33:00,309 --> 02:32:58,000 with this subject sometimes on its own 4160 02:33:02,070 --> 02:33:00,319 terms which is pre-scientific sort of 4161 02:33:04,070 --> 02:33:02,080 and perhaps the furtherance of our 4162 02:33:05,670 --> 02:33:04,080 knowledge in that realm will allow for 4163 02:33:07,910 --> 02:33:05,680 at some point a broader scientific 4164 02:33:09,349 --> 02:33:07,920 discussion to be had so yes i think that 4165 02:33:10,630 --> 02:33:09,359 it does outline that there are different 4166 02:33:11,830 --> 02:33:10,640 kinds of evidence and different things 4167 02:33:13,670 --> 02:33:11,840 that mean different things different 4168 02:33:15,830 --> 02:33:13,680 people from different ideological and 4169 02:33:18,150 --> 02:33:15,840 intellectual perspectives i like to say 4170 02:33:20,150 --> 02:33:18,160 that i apply the principles of critical 4171 02:33:22,950 --> 02:33:20,160 thinking to the theory and to the 4172 02:33:25,349 --> 02:33:22,960 phenomena itself so there's the 4173 02:33:27,190 --> 02:33:25,359 scientific method and then there's 4174 02:33:28,550 --> 02:33:27,200 critical thinking and both are 4175 02:33:31,510 --> 02:33:28,560 academically 4176 02:33:34,309 --> 02:33:31,520 acceptable forms of analyzing a problem 4177 02:33:36,150 --> 02:33:34,319 both can yield reasonable conclusions 4178 02:33:38,070 --> 02:33:36,160 about what may or may not be taking 4179 02:33:40,950 --> 02:33:38,080 place when we talk about anecdotal 4180 02:33:43,110 --> 02:33:40,960 evidence it's not totally unscientific 4181 02:33:45,670 --> 02:33:43,120 the stimulus response for example in 4182 02:33:47,349 --> 02:33:45,680 terms of when we see something how our 4183 02:33:48,870 --> 02:33:47,359 eye responds is well known it's how 4184 02:33:50,710 --> 02:33:48,880 we're able to make prescriptions for 4185 02:33:53,190 --> 02:33:50,720 glasses and so on 4186 02:33:55,830 --> 02:33:53,200 chances are if someone sees something 4187 02:33:58,389 --> 02:33:55,840 there is some external phenomenon that 4188 02:34:00,550 --> 02:33:58,399 has caused light to enter a person's eye 4189 02:34:02,630 --> 02:34:00,560 and show up as an image on the back and 4190 02:34:05,750 --> 02:34:02,640 be translated into image within our 4191 02:34:07,190 --> 02:34:05,760 consciousness that's well understood for 4192 02:34:08,870 --> 02:34:07,200 hundreds and hundreds of thousands of 4193 02:34:10,950 --> 02:34:08,880 people to see these things and describe 4194 02:34:13,349 --> 02:34:10,960 them and to think that it's all simply 4195 02:34:15,030 --> 02:34:13,359 hallucinations it's just not reasonable 4196 02:34:16,870 --> 02:34:15,040 so it's not like there's no science 4197 02:34:19,590 --> 02:34:16,880 involved there really is science 4198 02:34:22,070 --> 02:34:19,600 involved human beings are fantastic 4199 02:34:24,389 --> 02:34:22,080 recorders of information and perceivers 4200 02:34:27,190 --> 02:34:24,399 of the world around us only recently 4201 02:34:29,590 --> 02:34:27,200 have cameras and such been able to adapt 4202 02:34:31,270 --> 02:34:29,600 to the lighting conditions in a dynamic 4203 02:34:33,429 --> 02:34:31,280 fashion to be able to observe things 4204 02:34:34,309 --> 02:34:33,439 that are moving quickly through dim and 4205 02:34:36,710 --> 02:34:34,319 light 4206 02:34:38,950 --> 02:34:36,720 areas and determine what they are with 4207 02:34:40,950 --> 02:34:38,960 an intelligence for that matter there 4208 02:34:43,349 --> 02:34:40,960 isn't even anything that's intelligent 4209 02:34:45,110 --> 02:34:43,359 or as intelligent as we are to be able 4210 02:34:47,590 --> 02:34:45,120 to do that that's hooked up to any kind 4211 02:34:49,750 --> 02:34:47,600 of sensing mechanism it's really a 4212 02:34:51,590 --> 02:34:49,760 mistake in my view to think that 4213 02:34:54,150 --> 02:34:51,600 people's personal experiences should be 4214 02:34:55,190 --> 02:34:54,160 written off as unreliable enough to 4215 02:34:57,910 --> 02:34:55,200 discount 4216 02:34:59,670 --> 02:34:57,920 the entire phenomena well the issue you 4217 02:35:02,630 --> 02:34:59,680 can argue about here 4218 02:35:03,429 --> 02:35:02,640 is yes they see something what did they 4219 02:35:08,630 --> 02:35:03,439 see 4220 02:35:10,950 --> 02:35:08,640 what the phenomenon is and that's where 4221 02:35:14,790 --> 02:35:10,960 we get into all these ephemeral aspects 4222 02:35:17,270 --> 02:35:14,800 and paranormal aspects that's a physical 4223 02:35:19,270 --> 02:35:17,280 aircraft capable of feasts of 4224 02:35:21,429 --> 02:35:19,280 maneuverability that appear to exceed 4225 02:35:23,110 --> 02:35:21,439 what we can do well you could say well 4226 02:35:26,710 --> 02:35:23,120 some advanced 4227 02:35:27,750 --> 02:35:26,720 civilization did that it may not be a 4228 02:35:29,830 --> 02:35:27,760 secret 4229 02:35:32,710 --> 02:35:29,840 test aircraft here although i suspect 4230 02:35:34,630 --> 02:35:32,720 that was a possible source of a lot of 4231 02:35:37,110 --> 02:35:34,640 ufos over the years 4232 02:35:39,910 --> 02:35:37,120 then this is where the expectation or 4233 02:35:41,990 --> 02:35:39,920 belief in et comes from at the other 4234 02:35:43,990 --> 02:35:42,000 side of the coin well if we're not 4235 02:35:45,990 --> 02:35:44,000 seeing what's there we're only seeing 4236 02:35:48,230 --> 02:35:46,000 our interpretation of what's there 4237 02:35:50,710 --> 02:35:48,240 because there are aspects that just are 4238 02:35:52,710 --> 02:35:50,720 too alien to us or just beyond their 4239 02:35:55,590 --> 02:35:52,720 understanding i don't know i wouldn't 4240 02:35:57,750 --> 02:35:55,600 pretend to know so if we presume to want 4241 02:36:00,230 --> 02:35:57,760 to discuss this on the show we could 4242 02:36:02,469 --> 02:36:00,240 start another episode or maybe continue 4243 02:36:05,510 --> 02:36:02,479 this and after the power cast we can see 4244 02:36:07,429 --> 02:36:05,520 this has been a fun session with micah 4245 02:36:09,190 --> 02:36:07,439 hanks and ufology 4246 02:36:10,150 --> 02:36:09,200 and sue and it's something that we put 4247 02:36:12,870 --> 02:36:10,160 together 4248 02:36:15,510 --> 02:36:12,880 on fairly short notice it's nice to see 4249 02:36:18,790 --> 02:36:15,520 how you guys just are set loose in the 4250 02:36:21,590 --> 02:36:18,800 world and you produce
