1 00:00:09,150 --> 00:00:21,710 [Music] 2 00:00:28,580 --> 00:00:24,990 you're in the para cast the gold 3 00:00:33,810 --> 00:00:28,590 standard of paranormal radio and now 4 00:00:36,119 --> 00:00:33,820 here's Jeanne Steinberg what a 5 00:00:38,220 --> 00:00:36,129 difference a week makes so one week we 6 00:00:41,009 --> 00:00:38,230 have Robert Shaffer basically saying 7 00:00:43,110 --> 00:00:41,019 that if you saw a UFO you're mistaken 8 00:00:45,360 --> 00:00:43,120 or maybe you're a liar a liar Yeah right 9 00:00:48,000 --> 00:00:45,370 you know and even then he kind of 10 00:00:51,060 --> 00:00:48,010 disputed the extent of the line so Myka 11 00:00:53,220 --> 00:00:51,070 Hanks was supposedly told by him that a 12 00:00:55,560 --> 00:00:53,230 lot of these people liars he said no no 13 00:00:57,420 --> 00:00:55,570 no well maybe some heart but there you 14 00:00:59,760 --> 00:00:57,430 go that's eyewitness testimony for you 15 00:01:03,029 --> 00:00:59,770 you can't trust it and then we get a 16 00:01:07,230 --> 00:01:03,039 real class act chris Rutkowski you know 17 00:01:10,800 --> 00:01:07,240 this is a scientist he's done 25 years 18 00:01:13,520 --> 00:01:10,810 of UFO research captain to this document 19 00:01:17,730 --> 00:01:13,530 with he and his colleagues explore 20 00:01:20,249 --> 00:01:17,740 15,000 UFO cases very careful about what 21 00:01:24,140 --> 00:01:20,259 this testimony and we noticed that the 22 00:01:26,670 --> 00:01:24,150 vast vast majority of those stories were 23 00:01:29,850 --> 00:01:26,680 rejected as something conventional early 24 00:01:32,910 --> 00:01:29,860 on and the stuff that passed muster has 25 00:01:35,280 --> 00:01:32,920 got to be really good yeah but I don't 26 00:01:39,600 --> 00:01:35,290 think it was 14,000 some odd hundred 27 00:01:41,460 --> 00:01:39,610 people that were lying right all I want 28 00:01:44,249 --> 00:01:41,470 to do ladies and gentlemen is to 29 00:01:47,340 --> 00:01:44,259 fabricate a UFO sighting my life depends 30 00:01:50,880 --> 00:01:47,350 on fabricating a UFO sighting I try gene 31 00:01:54,990 --> 00:01:50,890 I tried but unfortunately my my sense of 32 00:01:56,999 --> 00:01:55,000 duty and honesty I called it an IFO when 33 00:01:59,310 --> 00:01:57,009 I posted it online but I hope still 34 00:02:02,039 --> 00:01:59,320 really good I think really good UFO 35 00:02:04,770 --> 00:02:02,049 footage and I think I may have come up 36 00:02:06,719 --> 00:02:04,780 with a possible way to explain the very 37 00:02:09,990 --> 00:02:06,729 famous tim edwards footage that was 38 00:02:14,400 --> 00:02:10,000 captured in august i think of south 95 39 00:02:16,470 --> 00:02:14,410 or was it 94 men years fly to fly by 40 00:02:18,360 --> 00:02:16,480 here 20 years ago for the edwards 41 00:02:20,310 --> 00:02:18,370 footage the daylight footage of the 42 00:02:23,660 --> 00:02:20,320 object skipping around in the air above 43 00:02:26,760 --> 00:02:23,670 Salida Colorado okay I found this 44 00:02:29,010 --> 00:02:26,770 spiderweb that was strung between a tree 45 00:02:32,040 --> 00:02:29,020 in my house and it was perfectly backlit 46 00:02:34,560 --> 00:02:32,050 by the Sun and where the Sun the Sun 47 00:02:36,990 --> 00:02:34,570 appeared that the light refracting 48 00:02:38,610 --> 00:02:37,000 through the the spiderweb because of a 49 00:02:40,440 --> 00:02:38,620 slight breeze the spider would would 50 00:02:43,020 --> 00:02:40,450 move and that light would go up and down 51 00:02:44,790 --> 00:02:43,030 this strand and I grabbed my video 52 00:02:46,500 --> 00:02:44,800 camera and got some incredible footage 53 00:02:49,200 --> 00:02:46,510 it looks just like the Tim Edwards 54 00:02:53,660 --> 00:02:49,210 footage so I really appreciate people 55 00:02:56,010 --> 00:02:53,670 like today's guest Ben Radford who 56 00:02:58,530 --> 00:02:56,020 attempt to apply the scientific method 57 00:03:01,770 --> 00:02:58,540 to explain some of these mysteries that 58 00:03:03,900 --> 00:03:01,780 were also intrigued by but well we'll 59 00:03:07,220 --> 00:03:03,910 get into this later I just I don't like 60 00:03:10,550 --> 00:03:07,230 people that rain on parades and possibly 61 00:03:14,550 --> 00:03:10,560 misrepresent themselves in in some ways 62 00:03:16,560 --> 00:03:14,560 anyway it's gonna be fun I love our 63 00:03:18,750 --> 00:03:16,570 up-and-down teeter-totter act that we've 64 00:03:20,430 --> 00:03:18,760 been doing here the last few you weeks 65 00:03:23,280 --> 00:03:20,440 with this skeptic and then a really good 66 00:03:25,500 --> 00:03:23,290 scientist and this kept ik and I just 67 00:03:28,500 --> 00:03:25,510 love the pair cast for that we we do 68 00:03:31,710 --> 00:03:28,510 kind of go a band flow and up and down 69 00:03:34,560 --> 00:03:31,720 it's really fun now Ben Radford's book 70 00:03:36,750 --> 00:03:34,570 is called mysterious New Mexico so in a 71 00:03:38,910 --> 00:03:36,760 sense he's kind of raining on Chris's 72 00:03:41,430 --> 00:03:38,920 parade there because he's covering some 73 00:03:42,990 --> 00:03:41,440 of the areas that Chris is covered in 74 00:03:44,580 --> 00:03:43,000 the mysterious Valley but he also has a 75 00:03:46,050 --> 00:03:44,590 chapter in here by the way in the book 76 00:03:49,140 --> 00:03:46,060 and weird I asked him about this later 77 00:03:51,660 --> 00:03:49,150 on a chapter on the Aztec New Mexico 78 00:03:53,850 --> 00:03:51,670 case he only mentions Roswell in 79 00:03:56,010 --> 00:03:53,860 connection with a stack but he kind of 80 00:03:57,900 --> 00:03:56,020 gets his facts wrong I don't claim to be 81 00:04:01,680 --> 00:03:57,910 an expert on Aztec but we have had 82 00:04:04,110 --> 00:04:01,690 extensive discussions yes on that 83 00:04:07,380 --> 00:04:04,120 particular case here we've featured 84 00:04:10,199 --> 00:04:07,390 Frank Warren and Scott Ramsey we 85 00:04:13,440 --> 00:04:10,209 featured Kevin Randall we had one of our 86 00:04:16,020 --> 00:04:13,450 former co-host referring to Aztec is the 87 00:04:18,960 --> 00:04:16,030 case that's kind of like Dracula you 88 00:04:23,730 --> 00:04:18,970 drive a stake through it but it always 89 00:04:25,470 --> 00:04:23,740 seems to come back so we'll get into 90 00:04:27,510 --> 00:04:25,480 that and we'll talk about that could be 91 00:04:29,760 --> 00:04:27,520 fascinating but it's interesting when 92 00:04:32,490 --> 00:04:29,770 you do this kind of discussion about the 93 00:04:36,360 --> 00:04:32,500 fact that for the most part the people 94 00:04:38,909 --> 00:04:36,370 who are like a Chris roots Kowski where 95 00:04:40,950 --> 00:04:38,919 they accumulate lots of cases and 96 00:04:43,140 --> 00:04:40,960 thoroughly study them they go out and 97 00:04:44,460 --> 00:04:43,150 actually investigate things they don't 98 00:04:45,550 --> 00:04:44,470 just sit there in the armchair and say 99 00:04:48,010 --> 00:04:45,560 oh it's this it's 100 00:04:50,470 --> 00:04:48,020 the other thing Robert Schaeffer sits 101 00:04:53,080 --> 00:04:50,480 back I don't know how many cases he ever 102 00:04:55,960 --> 00:04:53,090 explored looks like Ben Radford did a 103 00:04:57,430 --> 00:04:55,970 little investigation there I don't know 104 00:05:00,010 --> 00:04:57,440 we'll have to find out more detail about 105 00:05:02,620 --> 00:05:00,020 it but I don't see how you can dismiss 106 00:05:04,510 --> 00:05:02,630 something without investigating you know 107 00:05:08,260 --> 00:05:04,520 I don't know its intellectual dishonesty 108 00:05:11,830 --> 00:05:08,270 I think in many ways especially when you 109 00:05:14,830 --> 00:05:11,840 go out to look into a current case Oh a 110 00:05:17,770 --> 00:05:14,840 case that's you know in in in the fairly 111 00:05:20,560 --> 00:05:17,780 recent past there are so people out 112 00:05:24,070 --> 00:05:20,570 there that can be contacted and you can 113 00:05:26,170 --> 00:05:24,080 go out to particular sites and get the 114 00:05:27,460 --> 00:05:26,180 lay of the land you know and I think 115 00:05:29,890 --> 00:05:27,470 that that's really important boots on 116 00:05:32,320 --> 00:05:29,900 the ground there is no substitute for 117 00:05:34,270 --> 00:05:32,330 that and there's also no substitute for 118 00:05:37,360 --> 00:05:34,280 bringing to bear the scientific method 119 00:05:39,250 --> 00:05:37,370 on the types of cases that we doesn't 120 00:05:42,159 --> 00:05:39,260 discuss here on the podcast and it's 121 00:05:47,250 --> 00:05:42,169 important to to be intellectually honest 122 00:05:49,840 --> 00:05:47,260 with yourself and not be exclusive with 123 00:05:53,230 --> 00:05:49,850 selecting particular data points you 124 00:05:55,330 --> 00:05:53,240 have to look at all the data you can't 125 00:05:58,480 --> 00:05:55,340 just look at a particular slice of that 126 00:06:00,790 --> 00:05:58,490 data that conforms to your potentially 127 00:06:02,490 --> 00:06:00,800 foregone conclusion it's something I've 128 00:06:05,260 --> 00:06:02,500 been harping on here ever since I 129 00:06:07,870 --> 00:06:05,270 started on the pair of cast and I will 130 00:06:11,890 --> 00:06:07,880 continue to do some well the point is 131 00:06:14,320 --> 00:06:11,900 here is that in any particular cases you 132 00:06:19,029 --> 00:06:14,330 investigate you want to look for a 133 00:06:21,969 --> 00:06:19,039 possible mundane answers well sure maybe 134 00:06:23,650 --> 00:06:21,979 UFO photo is something conventional 135 00:06:26,260 --> 00:06:23,660 maybe some people faked the photo 136 00:06:28,480 --> 00:06:26,270 maybe people misidentified something 137 00:06:31,930 --> 00:06:28,490 maybe the apparition they saw is 138 00:06:34,690 --> 00:06:31,940 something particularly mundane get that 139 00:06:36,730 --> 00:06:34,700 out of the way first once you get it out 140 00:06:39,310 --> 00:06:36,740 of the way then you can sit back and 141 00:06:41,350 --> 00:06:39,320 concentrate on the unknowns and see how 142 00:06:43,480 --> 00:06:41,360 many of those cases still pass muster 143 00:06:46,540 --> 00:06:43,490 and you keep reviewing them and 144 00:06:48,790 --> 00:06:46,550 reviewing them as much as possible until 145 00:06:50,710 --> 00:06:48,800 you reach the point of no-return there's 146 00:06:53,260 --> 00:06:50,720 no more information I think in a case 147 00:06:55,600 --> 00:06:53,270 like Roswell I think we've reached the 148 00:06:57,270 --> 00:06:55,610 point long ago where there's no more 149 00:07:00,390 --> 00:06:57,280 information to be had 150 00:07:03,290 --> 00:07:00,400 no even this dream team what have they 151 00:07:06,659 --> 00:07:03,300 produced somebody finds alleged 152 00:07:10,650 --> 00:07:06,669 Kodachrome slides in an attic yeah I 153 00:07:13,970 --> 00:07:10,660 like the Roswell rock it's kind of 154 00:07:17,070 --> 00:07:13,980 resurfacing right now as a news item and 155 00:07:19,680 --> 00:07:17,080 I think somebody is duplicated it 156 00:07:22,940 --> 00:07:19,690 they've gone to the trouble of actually 157 00:07:25,470 --> 00:07:22,950 carving this enigmatic symbol into a 158 00:07:28,620 --> 00:07:25,480 piece of stone I haven't really read 159 00:07:30,270 --> 00:07:28,630 these articles yet but they have to come 160 00:07:33,659 --> 00:07:30,280 up with something new with Roswell so 161 00:07:36,390 --> 00:07:33,669 let's dig up a rock that mirrors uh you 162 00:07:38,909 --> 00:07:36,400 know some crop circle design by hoaxers 163 00:07:42,720 --> 00:07:38,919 in England I'll tell you this is gonna 164 00:07:44,930 --> 00:07:42,730 be the ultimate pun okay the reason they 165 00:07:50,010 --> 00:07:44,940 did that is because they were between a 166 00:07:52,159 --> 00:07:50,020 rock in Roswell even better the article 167 00:07:55,350 --> 00:07:52,169 by the way is called the Roswell rock 168 00:07:59,100 --> 00:07:55,360 over at Kevin Randall's different 169 00:08:01,500 --> 00:07:59,110 perspective blog just Google Kevin 170 00:08:04,310 --> 00:08:01,510 Randle or different perspective the 171 00:08:07,110 --> 00:08:04,320 article is dated Sunday August 31st and 172 00:08:09,930 --> 00:08:07,120 Kevin by the way is kind of 173 00:08:11,100 --> 00:08:09,940 misrepresented in this book by Radford 174 00:08:13,560 --> 00:08:11,110 that's one of the things we're gonna ask 175 00:08:15,870 --> 00:08:13,570 him about what Kevin is a pretty 176 00:08:18,090 --> 00:08:15,880 skeptical guy you think well he believes 177 00:08:23,370 --> 00:08:18,100 in Roswell he's got to be kind of a 178 00:08:26,310 --> 00:08:23,380 gullible guy well no not at all he very 179 00:08:29,909 --> 00:08:26,320 much questions his own believes his own 180 00:08:32,579 --> 00:08:29,919 viewpoints yeah you know uh jingly 181 00:08:35,640 --> 00:08:32,589 fashion very much so he's always a great 182 00:08:37,770 --> 00:08:35,650 guest so for example maybe at one time 183 00:08:40,140 --> 00:08:37,780 he believed in Aztec but he sure doesn't 184 00:08:42,240 --> 00:08:40,150 now in fact we had a very spirited 185 00:08:46,380 --> 00:08:42,250 discussion between him and Scott Ramsey 186 00:08:49,890 --> 00:08:46,390 on a stick now maybe Ramsey had all the 187 00:08:51,930 --> 00:08:49,900 minutiae there that Randall didn't have 188 00:08:55,230 --> 00:08:51,940 but it's still a matter of where is the 189 00:08:57,030 --> 00:08:55,240 evidence at this late stage certainly if 190 00:08:59,610 --> 00:08:57,040 you can't get evidence on Roswell except 191 00:09:03,870 --> 00:08:59,620 for rocks and Kodachrome slides and 192 00:09:06,990 --> 00:09:03,880 someone's attic in a box it's less so 193 00:09:11,070 --> 00:09:07,000 for Aztec or any of those cases I mean 194 00:09:13,290 --> 00:09:11,080 right now with what thirty four years 195 00:09:15,570 --> 00:09:13,300 behind us we got to start cleaning up 196 00:09:17,610 --> 00:09:15,580 Rendlesham and that's another case is 197 00:09:19,380 --> 00:09:17,620 very important by the way Peter Robbins 198 00:09:22,320 --> 00:09:19,390 who was the co-author of left of East 199 00:09:25,320 --> 00:09:22,330 Gate has a new ebook or set of ebook 200 00:09:26,820 --> 00:09:25,330 chapters out covering Rendlesham very 201 00:09:29,180 --> 00:09:26,830 important and we're gonna have Peter 202 00:09:32,010 --> 00:09:29,190 back on

lake monster mysteries to media 407 00:18:31,590 --> 00:18:29,450 panics and hoaxes and this and that and 408 00:18:33,160 --> 00:18:31,600 he said well you know you've done this 409 00:18:34,900 --> 00:18:33,170 investigations all over the world 410 00:18:35,740 --> 00:18:34,910 including you know Loch Ness in Africa 411 00:18:37,540 --> 00:18:35,750 and South America 412 00:18:40,240 --> 00:18:37,550 what about here in New Mexico about our 413 00:18:41,620 --> 00:18:40,250 own home state and he said you know 414 00:18:43,750 --> 00:18:41,630 there's there's no shortage of weirdness 415 00:18:45,490 --> 00:18:43,760 here and I said that that you got that 416 00:18:50,350 --> 00:18:45,500 right well Chris doesn't live there 417 00:18:52,270 --> 00:18:50,360 anymore so I never did that just that 418 00:18:53,680 --> 00:18:52,280 just made it all the more strange so 419 00:18:55,900 --> 00:18:53,690 they said yes so why don't we go ahead 420 00:18:58,060 --> 00:18:55,910 and do some investigations and I had 421 00:18:59,440 --> 00:18:58,070 already to be honest I've already some 422 00:19:01,630 --> 00:18:59,450 of these though I mean the book is a 423 00:19:02,950 --> 00:19:01,640 collection of 13 investigations I've 424 00:19:04,299 --> 00:19:02,960 done over the year so it's not like I 425 00:19:06,730 --> 00:19:04,309 did all these within the last few years 426 00:19:08,110 --> 00:19:06,740 although some of them I did and so it 427 00:19:10,330 --> 00:19:08,120 was basically an opportunity for me to 428 00:19:13,690 --> 00:19:10,340 collect mysteries and miracles and 429 00:19:15,070 --> 00:19:13,700 unusual cases that either had these are 430 00:19:18,040 --> 00:19:15,080 were here in New Mexico most of them 431 00:19:19,750 --> 00:19:18,050 were or had some fairly significant New 432 00:19:22,660 --> 00:19:19,760 Mexico connection for example the 433 00:19:25,570 --> 00:19:22,670 crystal skulls case is primarily to be 434 00:19:27,490 --> 00:19:25,580 fair primarily a Colorado but as Chris 435 00:19:29,650 --> 00:19:27,500 knows but it does have some connections 436 00:19:31,090 --> 00:19:29,660 to New Mexico so I felt it was it was 437 00:19:33,580 --> 00:19:31,100 interesting and unique enough and had 438 00:19:34,510 --> 00:19:33,590 enough New Mexico connections to include 439 00:19:36,370 --> 00:19:34,520 it okay 440 00:19:40,270 --> 00:19:36,380 now I'm just curious about one thing 441 00:19:43,870 --> 00:19:40,280 here in mysterious New Mexico you have a 442 00:19:46,180 --> 00:19:43,880 chapter on the Aztec UFO but not about 443 00:19:48,460 --> 00:19:46,190 Roswell except to mention it a number of 444 00:19:50,169 --> 00:19:48,470 times in connection with a snake is 445 00:19:51,580 --> 00:19:50,179 there a reason for that yeah there's 446 00:19:54,580 --> 00:19:51,590 actually a couple reasons for that one 447 00:19:57,250 --> 00:19:54,590 was that what I try to do in and my 448 00:19:59,080 --> 00:19:57,260 research in my my work is to I try not 449 00:20:01,030 --> 00:19:59,090 to reinvent the wheel and there's lots 450 00:20:04,150 --> 00:20:01,040 and lots and lots of places where you 451 00:20:07,210 --> 00:20:04,160 can find information some good some bad 452 00:20:10,690 --> 00:20:07,220 on Roswell crash the Roswell crash in 453 00:20:12,610 --> 00:20:10,700 1947 here in New Mexico is is pretty 454 00:20:15,669 --> 00:20:12,620 well picked over that doesn't of course 455 00:20:18,310 --> 00:20:15,679 stop UFO proponents from cranking out a 456 00:20:21,310 --> 00:20:18,320 new untold secrets of Roswell every 457 00:20:23,470 --> 00:20:21,320 every year or two but the simple fact is 458 00:20:24,940 --> 00:20:23,480 that for the most part that the skeptics 459 00:20:28,000 --> 00:20:24,950 and skeptical community have done a 460 00:20:29,650 --> 00:20:28,010 pretty robust job between Robert Schafer 461 00:20:31,810 --> 00:20:29,660 and Dave Thomas and Phil class and 462 00:20:34,540 --> 00:20:31,820 others of addressing that the roswell 463 00:20:36,010 --> 00:20:34,550 claims and i know quite a bit about it 464 00:20:37,049 --> 00:20:36,020 it's just not something that i really 465 00:20:38,580 --> 00:20:37,059 was it 466 00:20:40,889 --> 00:20:38,590 doing partly because again it's already 467 00:20:43,289 --> 00:20:40,899 been done it's already been buried but 468 00:20:45,210 --> 00:20:43,299 the other thing about it is that you 469 00:20:46,889 --> 00:20:45,220 still hear the stories like Kevin Randle 470 00:20:49,320 --> 00:20:46,899 covers this silly story about this 471 00:20:52,019 --> 00:20:49,330 Roswell rock but nobody could possibly 472 00:20:53,759 --> 00:20:52,029 believe and remember we understand here 473 00:20:57,269 --> 00:20:53,769 Kevin is a guy who thinks something 474 00:20:59,279 --> 00:20:57,279 alien happened at Roswell but he's still 475 00:21:00,930 --> 00:20:59,289 not going to accept everything right 476 00:21:04,320 --> 00:21:00,940 he's going to be pretty sensible about 477 00:21:06,480 --> 00:21:04,330 it but isn't also true that Aztec has 478 00:21:08,700 --> 00:21:06,490 been pretty well covered over and over 479 00:21:10,649 --> 00:21:08,710 and really hasn't been given much 480 00:21:14,039 --> 00:21:10,659 credibility except by a small number of 481 00:21:16,499 --> 00:21:14,049 people so why bring up Aztec you see 482 00:21:18,269 --> 00:21:16,509 Roswell at least even if there's not new 483 00:21:20,639 --> 00:21:18,279 evidence we can debate the meaning of 484 00:21:23,009 --> 00:21:20,649 what there is but as text seems to be so 485 00:21:25,680 --> 00:21:23,019 much of a lesser story well it's a 486 00:21:27,810 --> 00:21:25,690 lesser story within the within the UFO 487 00:21:29,820 --> 00:21:27,820 community I mean this is the thing to 488 00:21:32,129 --> 00:21:29,830 recognize that mysterious New Mexico is 489 00:21:35,430 --> 00:21:32,139 intended to be a sort of a lay audience 490 00:21:37,619 --> 00:21:35,440 general audience and so you're exactly 491 00:21:38,460 --> 00:21:37,629 right you know within within skeptics in 492 00:21:41,850 --> 00:21:38,470 the UFO community 493 00:21:44,249 --> 00:21:41,860 the Aztec is null is his old hat but I 494 00:21:45,419 --> 00:21:44,259 can tell you over and over again the 495 00:21:47,820 --> 00:21:45,429 book has now been out for about six 496 00:21:49,350 --> 00:21:47,830 weeks now and I've had several people 497 00:21:51,720 --> 00:21:49,360 come up to me and say wow I've never 498 00:21:54,239 --> 00:21:51,730 even heard of Aztec I had you know I 499 00:21:57,029 --> 00:21:54,249 everyone always thinks of UFO crashes 500 00:21:59,460 --> 00:21:57,039 and Roswell and so I've had lots of 501 00:22:01,049 --> 00:21:59,470 people who never even heard of the story 502 00:22:03,509 --> 00:22:01,059 much less you know all its intricacies 503 00:22:05,129 --> 00:22:03,519 and so because the book is aimed at a 504 00:22:07,440 --> 00:22:05,139 broader audience of people who are 505 00:22:09,090 --> 00:22:07,450 interested in you know unusual and 506 00:22:11,279 --> 00:22:09,100 strange occurrences in New Mexico and 507 00:22:13,710 --> 00:22:11,289 and certainly at the Aztec UFO crash 508 00:22:16,590 --> 00:22:13,720 whether you're a believer of skeptic I 509 00:22:19,139 --> 00:22:16,600 mean it's a bizarre story either way and 510 00:22:20,669 --> 00:22:19,149 and therefore warrants a chapter in 511 00:22:22,019 --> 00:22:20,679 there a couple of things I wanted to ask 512 00:22:24,419 --> 00:22:22,029 you about that because I was confused 513 00:22:26,999 --> 00:22:24,429 about some of the items so we have the 514 00:22:30,119 --> 00:22:27,009 gentleman who worked for a San Francisco 515 00:22:33,239 --> 00:22:30,129 newspaper JP Kahn and he writes an 516 00:22:35,489 --> 00:22:33,249 expose of Frank Scully's book behind the 517 00:22:36,930 --> 00:22:35,499 flying saucers now that's the beginning 518 00:22:39,389 --> 00:22:36,940 of the framing of the question I'll ask 519 00:22:41,399 --> 00:22:39,399 you more in our next segment Benjamin 520

in any particular detail 636 00:27:58,200 --> 00:27:56,170 in a book by Frank Scully called behind 637 00:28:00,750 --> 00:27:58,210 the flying saucers and let's explain who 638 00:28:04,410 --> 00:28:00,760 Frank Scully was he was a gossip 639 00:28:06,480 --> 00:28:04,420 columnist for variety now I don't know 640 00:28:08,310 --> 00:28:06,490 about you but you know we're talking 641 00:28:10,080 --> 00:28:08,320 about an entertainment reporter here a 642 00:28:12,780 --> 00:28:10,090 gossip columnist you know he maybe in 643 00:28:14,520 --> 00:28:12,790 the late 40s early 50s he'll tell you 644 00:28:17,340 --> 00:28:14,530 who Frank Sinatra was dating at the time 645 00:28:19,680 --> 00:28:17,350 exactly that that's his beats because 646 00:28:22,200 --> 00:28:19,690 that was his beat he was not a serious 647 00:28:22,850 --> 00:28:22,210 journalist didn't pretend to be but then 648 00:28:25,610 --> 00:28:22,860 it comes out 649 00:28:28,759 --> 00:28:25,620 with behind the flying saucers and my 650 00:28:29,090 --> 00:28:28,769 impression of this is that he believed 651 00:28:31,100 --> 00:28:29,100 it 652 00:28:32,690 --> 00:28:31,110 mm-hmm you could say he's gullible you 653 00:28:35,180 --> 00:28:32,700 can say he was taken in by a couple of 654 00:28:35,870 --> 00:28:35,190 con men but he believed it it no pun 655 00:28:43,130 --> 00:28:35,880 intended 656 00:28:46,060 --> 00:28:43,140 yes I I'm getting married this as I get 657 00:28:49,430 --> 00:28:46,070 older I get worse at this no seriously 658 00:28:51,380 --> 00:28:49,440 okay so he's second in by this con man 659 00:28:53,750 --> 00:28:51,390 then another guy named con from San 660 00:28:57,799 --> 00:28:53,760 Francisco exposes it his articles were 661 00:28:59,870 --> 00:28:57,809 in true magazine around 1952 sounds 662 00:29:01,009 --> 00:28:59,880 about right and it was true magazine for 663 00:29:03,740 --> 00:29:01,019 those who wonder what I'm talking about 664 00:29:07,519 --> 00:29:03,750 true magazine what's that well back in 665 00:29:09,320 --> 00:29:07,529 the early days in the 20th century you 666 00:29:11,330 --> 00:29:09,330 had these so-called men's action 667 00:29:13,820 --> 00:29:11,340 magazines men of action 668 00:29:16,879 --> 00:29:13,830 and it was true it was Argosy it was 669 00:29:19,519 --> 00:29:16,889 saga and they would also cover UFOs 670 00:29:22,340 --> 00:29:19,529 paranormal stuff but the most famous 671 00:29:24,799 --> 00:29:22,350 thing is that kind of magazine featured 672 00:29:27,049 --> 00:29:24,809 the first stories by Edgar Rice 673 00:29:30,289 --> 00:29:27,059 Burroughs if the early part of the 20th 674 00:29:32,810 --> 00:29:30,299 century Tarzan John Carter of Mars they 675 00:29:36,850 --> 00:29:32,820 came out in these men's magazines so 676 00:29:40,669 --> 00:29:36,860 true magazine carries a story in 1952 677 00:29:44,450 --> 00:29:40,679 exposing the Aztec case and the main 678 00:29:48,500 --> 00:29:44,460 reason is the two major sources G Bower 679 00:29:50,240 --> 00:29:48,510 in Newton work on men the confidence men 680 00:29:52,850 --> 00:29:50,250 they're fooling people they're taking 681 00:29:56,799 --> 00:29:52,860 their money and you mentioned in the 682 00:29:59,690 --> 00:29:56,809 book also that they were found guilty 683 00:30:03,889 --> 00:29:59,700 mm-hmm they were they're found guilty 684 00:30:05,389 --> 00:30:03,899 and that they were convicted of crimes 685 00:30:06,860 --> 00:30:05,399 where they could spend many years in 686 00:30:08,180 --> 00:30:06,870 jail but I understand they never 687 00:30:11,450 --> 00:30:08,190 actually spent time in jail is that 688 00:30:14,539 --> 00:30:11,460 correct you know I I don't remember the 689 00:30:18,049 --> 00:30:14,549 the exact follow-up to the to the Newton 690 00:30:20,539 --> 00:30:18,059 in our criminal trial in many ways 691 00:30:23,659 --> 00:30:20,549 partly because it's it's actually not 692 00:30:25,549 --> 00:30:23,669 that relevant to to the whole UFO crash 693 00:30:28,100 --> 00:30:25,559 and in terms of we we know for a fact 694 00:30:31,039 --> 00:30:28,110 that they were con men we know for a 695 00:30:33,350 --> 00:30:31,049 fact that they fed the story to to 696 00:30:36,080 --> 00:30:33,360 Scully and then con you know when did 697 00:30:36,740 --> 00:30:36,090 research on that and so you know taints 698 00:30:38,270 --> 00:30:36,750 your question I 699 00:30:41,210 --> 00:30:38,280 I've forgotten off the top my head 700 00:30:43,720 --> 00:30:41,220 exactly you know who spent what time in 701 00:30:46,730 --> 00:30:43,730 jail just cuz it's not actually that 702 00:30:47,930 --> 00:30:46,740 relevant to the whole UFO cover-up story 703 00:30:51,530 --> 00:30:47,940 it's sort of you know an interesting 704 00:30:53,900 --> 00:30:51,540 after part but but certainly we you know 705 00:30:55,250 --> 00:30:53,910 they were convicted and you know part of 706 00:30:57,260 --> 00:30:55,260 the problem isn't interesting because if 707 00:30:59,180 --> 00:30:57,270 you look at the timeline on this there 708 00:31:00,890 --> 00:30:59,190 was I think about over a decade or 709 00:31:02,630 --> 00:31:00,900 nearly a decade between the time when 710 00:31:04,580 --> 00:31:02,640 they were finally essentially caught and 711 00:31:06,470 --> 00:31:04,590 the time they were convicted so I I 712 00:31:09,260 --> 00:31:06,480 actually don't know why it took so long 713 00:31:11,350 --> 00:31:09,270 and when I was talking to two robber 714 00:31:14,960 --> 00:31:11,360 Shaffir and going through Kahn's work 715 00:31:16,940 --> 00:31:14,970 now he does talk about how there were 716 00:31:18,530 --> 00:31:16,950 problems in assembling the case against 717 00:31:20,840 --> 00:31:18,540 these two con men partly because for 718 00:31:22,400 --> 00:31:20,850 example people were reluctant to come 719 00:31:25,190 --> 00:31:22,410 forward they they didn't want to admit 720 00:31:26,270 --> 00:31:25,200 that they and you know what we're 721 00:31:27,590 --> 00:31:26,280 talking about now I wasn't gonna make 722 00:31:28,700 --> 00:31:27,600 sense to people who haven't read the 723 00:31:30,590 --> 00:31:28,710 chapter who don't know the whole story 724 00:31:32,810 --> 00:31:30,600 but they for example didn't want to 725 00:31:34,970 --> 00:31:32,820 admit that they'd been scammed by these 726 00:31:37,610 --> 00:31:34,980 con men who were selling them technology 727 00:31:39,860 --> 00:31:37,620 allegedly from Venus and so there there 728 00:31:41,660 --> 00:31:39,870 was a reluctance to sort of come forward 729 00:31:44,060 --> 00:31:41,670 and so Pete some people have to sort of 730 00:31:45,440 --> 00:31:44,070 be you know say well look you know we 731 00:31:47,210 --> 00:31:45,450 need someone to testify against these 732 00:31:47,840 --> 00:31:47,220 people so I think that that's part of 733 00:31:51,560 --> 00:31:47,850 the story 734 00:31:54,080 --> 00:31:51,570 okay so in passing though it might have 735 00:31:56,270 --> 00:31:54,090 been worth adding a sentence or checking 736 00:31:58,100 --> 00:31:56,280 it out no despite being convicted they 737 00:31:59,900 --> 00:31:58,110 really didn't go to jail but let's look 738 00:32:01,790 --> 00:31:59,910 at the case itself mm-hmm because this 739 00:32:05,210 --> 00:32:01,800 is it be interesting now let's continue 740 00:32:09,470 --> 00:32:05,220 okay all right so we have the situation 741 00:32:11,600 --> 00:32:09,480 here where you imply that Kevin Randle 742 00:32:14,210 --> 00:32:11,610 believes in this and maybe he did 25 743 00:32:16,790 --> 00:32:14,220 years ago but he's famously been on the 744 00:32:18,710 --> 00:32:16,800 power cast a few times and written 745 00:32:21,760 --> 00:32:18,720 extensively in his blog a different 746 00:32:24,430 --> 00:32:21,770 perspective but he doesn't by Astec 747 00:32:26,540 --> 00:32:24,440 mmm-hmm you're aware of that right I 748 00:32:29,740 --> 00:32:26,550 didn't get that impression from the book 749 00:32:34,010 --> 00:32:29,750 right I'm trying to remember what what 750 00:32:35,570 --> 00:32:34,020 what exactly you know when was his 751 00:32:38,120 --> 00:32:35,580 change of heart do you when can you tell 752 00:32:40,820 --> 00:32:38,130 when was that you know I wouldn't put a 753 00:32:43,340 --> 00:32:40,830 time on I know that since we've been 754 00:32:45,890 --> 00:32:43,350 doing the power cast since 2006 when we 755 00:32:47,780 --> 00:32:45,900 have talked to Randall about that case 756 00:32:50,300 --> 00:32:47,790 he's been skeptical so I wouldn't 757 00:32:51,860 --> 00:32:50,310 attempt to frame the extent of his dis 758 00:32:54,470 --> 00:32:51,870 belief you can probably check his blog 759 00:32:56,380 --> 00:32:54,480 to get more information mm-hmm these are 760 00:32:59,480 --> 00:32:56,390 the last few years that we know him 761 00:33:01,310 --> 00:32:59,490 actively because of the show he was not 762 00:33:03,170 --> 00:33:01,320 a believer in Astec and the main 763 00:33:05,570 --> 00:33:03,180 believer currently the guy now who 764 00:33:08,720 --> 00:33:05,580 really supports his Scott Ramsey right 765 00:33:10,700 --> 00:33:08,730 who I quote in the book right now the 766 00:33:12,800 --> 00:33:10,710 thing here of course is that in his book 767 00:33:17,840 --> 00:33:12,810 he also tries to resurrect the 768 00:33:21,410 --> 00:33:17,850 reputation of Scully mmm and even jib 769 00:33:23,660 --> 00:33:21,420 our and even Newton he tries to make it 770 00:33:25,250 --> 00:33:23,670 look as if that some of those claims 771 00:33:26,990 --> 00:33:25,260 were unsupported and maybe the 772 00:33:29,960 --> 00:33:27,000 authorities were going after them but 773 00:33:32,510 --> 00:33:29,970 that's a little bit murky so yeah I mean 774 00:33:34,610 --> 00:33:32,520 I to be honest I was I was astonished 775 00:33:36,770 --> 00:33:34,620 from reading about Scott Ramsey's you 776 00:33:38,900 --> 00:33:36,780 know he his attempt to as you sort of 777 00:33:40,940 --> 00:33:38,910 said just for resurrect this thing he's 778 00:33:44,060 --> 00:33:40,950 like oh no you know it really happened 779 00:33:45,220 --> 00:33:44,070 and and again it's like it's crystal 780 00:33:48,820 --> 00:33:45,230 clear I mean it is absolutely 781 00:33:52,430 --> 00:33:48,830 indisputable that that's that you know 782 00:33:55,790 --> 00:33:52,440 it's for 2 con men who made up the story 783 00:33:57,920 --> 00:33:55,800 and but basically his Ramses premise 784 00:34:01,610 --> 00:33:57,930 unless I'm badly misunderstanding it his 785 00:34:03,770 --> 00:34:01,620 sort basically saying well you know yes 786 00:34:06,140 --> 00:34:03,780 yo these guys were liars and yes they 787 00:34:07,820 --> 00:34:06,150 were con man but this was all sort of 788 00:34:09,950 --> 00:34:07,830 you know a cover story for something 789 00:34:12,140 --> 00:34:09,960 that actually happened and he goes into 790 00:34:14,240 --> 00:34:12,150 you know talking about and you sort of 791 00:34:16,520 --> 00:34:14,250 brought this up before he spent months 792 00:34:19,760 --> 00:34:16,530 trying to trying to track down some 793 00:34:22,850 --> 00:34:19,770 weird mysterious sort of conspiracy 794 00:34:25,670 --> 00:34:22,860 theory about some reporter of the 795 00:34:27,980 --> 00:34:25,680 Baltimore Sun Times or which is what he 796 00:34:31,040 --> 00:34:27,990 said section out the name of paper who 797 00:34:33,350 --> 00:34:31,050 had was trying to track down a UFO photo 798 00:34:35,600 --> 00:34:33,360 it's just this bizarre thing and if you 799 00:34:37,010 --> 00:34:35,610 listen to this listen the the interview 800 00:34:39,230 --> 00:34:37,020 in the podcast and they scored in there 801 00:34:41,060 --> 00:34:39,240 he says well you know I'm confused I 802 00:34:43,250 --> 00:34:41,070 have no idea what all this means and and 803 00:34:44,990 --> 00:34:43,260 it's like well look dude if you if you 804 00:34:46,430 --> 00:34:45,000 have all if you've done if you spent so 805 00:34:48,740 --> 00:34:46,440 much time on this months and years of 806 00:34:50,180 --> 00:34:48,750 research and you and you have this this 807 00:34:52,090 --> 00:34:50,190 piece of information that doesn't fit 808 00:34:54,290 --> 00:34:52,100 everything else then maybe it's wrong 809 00:34:56,030 --> 00:34:54,300 maybe you got the information wrong 810 00:34:57,830 --> 00:34:56,040 maybe it's all you know it's it's all 811 00:35:01,520 --> 00:34:57,840 one of many red herrings in this whole 812 00:35:03,470 --> 00:35:01,530 story and so it just astonished me that 813 00:35:05,990 --> 00:35:03,480 this this this writer 814 00:35:08,089 --> 00:35:06,000 oh yeah well you know III can't make 815 00:35:10,490 --> 00:35:08,099 heads or tail this well that's that's a 816 00:35:13,190 --> 00:35:10,500 red flag that the information you're 817 00:35:14,870 --> 00:35:13,200 pursuing is false which is it's not it's 818 00:35:17,240 --> 00:35:14,880 not a discredit to you there's lots of 819 00:35:19,550 --> 00:35:17,250 misinformation both intentional and 820 00:35:21,050 --> 00:35:19,560 accidental throughout you apology you 821 00:35:23,420 --> 00:35:21,060 guys know this and he should know this 822 00:35:23,839 --> 00:35:23,430 and yet you know he sort of tries to do 823 00:35:27,349 --> 00:35:23,849 this 824 00:35:30,050 --> 00:35:27,359 all true in the end it's like dude come 825 00:35:33,500 --> 00:35:30,060 on give it up I kind of look at it as 826 00:35:35,599 --> 00:35:33,510 maybe this is the prosecution the 827 00:35:39,319 --> 00:35:35,609 prosecution's trying to assemble a case 828 00:35:41,859 --> 00:35:39,329 in favor of Aztec and discredit the 829 00:35:46,160 --> 00:35:41,869 defense the people saying no is his a 830 00:35:48,260 --> 00:35:46,170 fake and I guess he goes as far as is 831 00:35:50,540 --> 00:35:48,270 humanly possible now he told me 832 00:35:53,089 --> 00:35:50,550 personally he told us on the show that 833 00:35:54,620 --> 00:35:53,099 he spent over half a million dollars of 834 00:35:56,960 --> 00:35:54,630 his personal money and he's a 835 00:35:59,810 --> 00:35:56,970 businessman I guess he's decently 836 00:36:02,089 --> 00:35:59,820 well-off he spent a lot of this money to 837 00:36:04,040 --> 00:36:02,099 do the research and that's a commendable 838 00:36:07,849 --> 00:36:04,050 effort but after spending all that money 839 00:36:10,160 --> 00:36:07,859 if this is all you can come up with as a 840 00:36:13,160 --> 00:36:10,170

956 00:41:28,109 --> 00:41:25,779 just one other point I want to ask you 957 00:41:30,720 --> 00:41:28,119 here you said that 958 00:41:33,509 --> 00:41:30,730 Scully's reputation was really tainted 959 00:41:39,059 --> 00:41:33,519 by this how kind of gossip columnist 960 00:41:41,400 --> 00:41:39,069 reputation be tainted by anything no no 961 00:41:44,400 --> 00:41:41,410 it's a fair question I mean you know the 962 00:41:46,680 --> 00:41:44,410 fact is that as I understand and I'm not 963 00:41:49,049 --> 00:41:46,690 a historian on Frank Scully but as I 964 00:41:50,880 --> 00:41:49,059 from the research that I've done is that 965 00:41:52,829 --> 00:41:50,890 even though he was a gossip columnist 966 00:41:55,470 --> 00:41:52,839 and that was sort of again as we said 967 00:41:58,500 --> 00:41:55,480 that was his beat he went out on a limb 968 00:42:00,569 --> 00:41:58,510 with behind the flying saucers he was he 969 00:42:02,430 --> 00:42:00,579 was basically saying yeah okay all this 970 00:42:04,200 --> 00:42:02,440 stuff I was doing before it's all rumor 971 00:42:06,059 --> 00:42:04,210 and gossip and you know celebrity stuff 972 00:42:08,430 --> 00:42:06,069 blah blah and by the way let's not 973 00:42:10,410 --> 00:42:08,440 forget that that much of the stuff he 974 00:42:12,089 --> 00:42:10,420 reported was true 975 00:42:14,339 --> 00:42:12,099 you know Sinatra's love life this and 976 00:42:16,230 --> 00:42:14,349 that it's all rumor and gossip and you 977 00:42:18,059 --> 00:42:16,240 know stuff that's that's inconsequential 978 00:42:20,640 --> 00:42:18,069 but that doesn't make it not true it's 979 00:42:22,559 --> 00:42:20,650 the same way today rumors about you know 980 00:42:24,539 --> 00:42:22,569 oh yeah the first photos of you know 981 00:42:27,299 --> 00:42:24,549 Angelina Jolie's baby or you know what 982 00:42:29,190 --> 00:42:27,309 Mariah was dumped you know this is all 983 00:42:31,259 --> 00:42:29,200 sort of superficial inconsequential 984 00:42:33,630 --> 00:42:31,269 gossip but that doesn't make it not true 985 00:42:35,700 --> 00:42:33,640 Wow first now the big controversy this 986 00:42:37,380 --> 00:42:35,710 week is the alleged nude photos of 987 00:42:40,170 --> 00:42:37,390 Jennifer Lawrence and some other people 988 00:42:43,650 --> 00:42:40,180 and the only response I have to that 989 00:42:45,299 --> 00:42:43,660 before we go on is really are you that 990 00:42:47,130 --> 00:42:45,309 stupid that you're gonna take pictures 991 00:42:48,870 --> 00:42:47,140 like that it doesn't

with with 1000 00:43:10,950 --> 00:43:09,460 behind the Flying Saucer Scully was was 1001 00:43:11,760 --> 00:43:10,960 essentially trying to stake his 1002 00:43:14,280 --> 00:43:11,770 credibility 1003 00:43:15,660 --> 00:43:14,290 journalist I think he was tired of I 1004 00:43:17,400 --> 00:43:15,670 mean he certainly made a good living and 1005 00:43:19,530 --> 00:43:17,410 he was well known in those circles as 1006 00:43:22,200 --> 00:43:19,540 you know celebrity rumor and gossip from 1007 00:43:23,940 --> 00:43:22,210 from that time which is fine but he was 1008 00:43:25,710 --> 00:43:23,950 totally taken in by these guys like look 1009 00:43:27,960 --> 00:43:25,720 you know I'm gonna break this story wide 1010 00:43:29,340 --> 00:43:27,970 open because as as you yourself said he 1011 00:43:30,870 --> 00:43:29,350 apparently believe this he you know I do 1012 00:43:32,310 --> 00:43:30,880 I have no reason to think that Scully 1013 00:43:33,180 --> 00:43:32,320 was in on this I think he believed this 1014 00:43:35,820 --> 00:43:33,190 from start to finish 1015 00:43:37,470 --> 00:43:35,830 and if you take that disa premise and he 1016 00:43:39,360 --> 00:43:37,480 really believes that oh my god you know 1017 00:43:42,420 --> 00:43:39,370 there really was this crash these guys 1018 00:43:45,060 --> 00:43:42,430 seem legitimate this one this one guy's 1019 00:43:47,280 --> 00:43:45,070 got more degrees than the thermometer as 1020 00:43:49,950 --> 00:43:47,290 one as he said and probably worth no 1021 00:43:51,810 --> 00:43:49,960 more than thermometer exactly then then 1022 00:43:54,870 --> 00:43:51,820 then you know you can see why he would 1023 00:43:57,180 --> 00:43:54,880 want to use that book to sort of stake 1024 00:43:59,220 --> 00:43:57,190 out more credibility and so that's why I 1025 00:44:00,990 --> 00:43:59,230 think in the end his credibility was 1026 00:44:03,450 --> 00:44:01,000 tarnished because he had gone out on a 1027 00:44:05,970 --> 00:44:03,460 limb based on these these two con men 1028 00:44:09,150 --> 00:44:05,980 and put his name on it and he was fooled 1029 00:44:11,760 --> 00:44:09,160 and so we consign Aztec to what the 1030 00:44:14,850 --> 00:44:11,770 dustbin of history well you know the 1031 00:44:16,440 --> 00:44:14,860 thing about and as you guys know I mean 1032 00:44:18,330 --> 00:44:16,450 one of the fascinating parts about the 1033 00:44:19,980 --> 00:44:18,340 this these you know paranormal and 1034 00:44:21,780 --> 00:44:19,990 unexplained things is there's rubber 1035 00:44:23,190 --> 00:44:21,790 duck syndrome where it keeps coming up 1036 00:44:25,740 --> 00:44:23,200 it doesn't matter same thing with you 1037 00:44:28,080 --> 00:44:25,750 the ramita triangle the mere triangle is 1038 00:44:30,690 --> 00:44:28,090 essentially debunked in the mid-70s and 1039 00:44:32,790 --> 00:44:30,700 to this day they're still documentaries 1040 00:44:34,740 --> 00:44:32,800 on it they're still occasional you know 1041 00:44:36,720 --> 00:44:34,750 magazine articles books and this and 1042 00:44:38,580 --> 00:44:36,730 that so it's never gonna go away that 1043 00:44:40,890 --> 00:44:38,590 but what I think is most is really 1044 00:44:43,350 --> 00:44:40,900 really fascinating about the the Aztec 1045 00:44:45,000 --> 00:44:43,360 UFO crash is the whole stories the whole 1046 00:44:46,650 --> 00:44:45,010 structure it's not just like ooh this 1047 00:44:49,200 --> 00:44:46,660 was a con it's like it not only was a 1048 00:44:51,150 --> 00:44:49,210 con it was actually the first as far as 1049 00:44:53,700 --> 00:44:51,160 I know it was actually the first case 1050 00:44:56,160 --> 00:44:53,710 where anybody had claimed that the US 1051 00:44:58,410 --> 00:44:56,170 government had retrieved an intact 1052 00:45:01,380 --> 00:44:58,420 flying saucer complete with alien bodies 1053 00:45:02,720 --> 00:45:01,390 and hidden it so it's it's remarkable I 1054 00:45:05,700 --> 00:45:02,730 mean it turned out to be a lie of course 1055 00:45:09,510 --> 00:45:05,710 but it's remarkable for its early date 1056 00:45:11,360 --> 00:45:09,520 1948 and and that fact alone well at 1057 00:45:15,780 --> 00:45:11,370 least one thing we know is that 1058 00:45:18,210 --> 00:45:15,790 obviously stories like that after Aztec 1059 00:45:20,760 --> 00:45:18,220 didn't go anywhere until Roswell was 1060 00:45:22,890 --> 00:45:20,770 resurrected 20-some odd years later in 1061 00:45:24,539 --> 00:45:22,900 any case now to the dustbin of history 1062 00:45:27,299 --> 00:45:24,549 is ask tech I know Scott 1063 00:45:28,890 --> 00:45:27,309 MZ who's a really nice guy is not going 1064 00:45:31,289 --> 00:45:28,900 to like me saying that but Chris and I 1065 00:45:33,479 --> 00:45:31,299 agree this is not the case it should 1066 00:45:35,219 --> 00:45:33,489 rise and fall on now maybe you and I 1067 00:45:38,279 --> 00:45:35,229 would disagree about the worth of 1068 00:45:39,569 --> 00:45:38,289 Roswell but you know I'm not a full-on 1069 00:45:42,089 --> 00:45:39,579 believer in that either 1070 00:45:43,019 --> 00:45:42,099 okay let's explore more of mysterious 1071 00:45:46,679 --> 00:45:43,029 New Mexico 1072 00:45:50,069 --> 00:45:46,689 it doesn't involve crash UFOs okay and 1073 00:45:52,140 --> 00:45:50,079 I'm gonna bring in our expert for such 1074 00:45:54,239 --> 00:45:52,150 matters mr. Chris O'Brien who will 1075 00:45:56,090 --> 00:45:54,249 follow through Chris yeah the jell-o 1076 00:45:59,120 --> 00:45:56,100 slurp and true believer 1077 00:46:02,069 --> 00:45:59,130 [Music] 1078 00:46:04,919 --> 00:46:02,079 yeah I'm beyond kool-aid drinking Ben 1079 00:46:08,359 --> 00:46:04,929 now I'm a jello slurper wow that's 1080 00:46:12,599 --> 00:46:10,949 especially since the original Jonestown 1081 00:46:16,499 --> 00:46:12,609 Massacre was flavor aid not kool-aid 1082 00:46:18,359 --> 00:46:16,509 right yep no there's so many kool-aid 1083 00:46:20,999 --> 00:46:18,369 drinkers out there we tried it we try to 1084 00:46:22,319 --> 00:46:21,009 be all things for all people that's good 1085 00:46:25,890 --> 00:46:22,329 you know it's good that you're out there 1086 00:46:27,539 --> 00:46:25,900 yeah well did they cover your book my my 1087 00:46:30,359 --> 00:46:27,549 friend Susan took one look at it in 1088 00:46:32,910 --> 00:46:30,369 street for those of you that haven't 1089 00:46:36,209 --> 00:46:32,920 seen the cover it's a dead ghoulish 1090 00:46:38,459 --> 00:46:36,219 woman holding a you know sleeping baby 1091 00:46:40,559 --> 00:46:38,469 in her arms and the woman has several 1092 00:46:42,569 --> 00:46:40,569 dozen big spiders coming out of her 1093 00:46:45,229 --> 00:46:42,579 mouth and spreading out around her and 1094 00:46:48,779 --> 00:46:45,239 she she looks like something out of 1095 00:46:51,449 --> 00:46:48,789 walking dead or something it is a 1096 00:46:54,269 --> 00:46:51,459 remarkably creepy cover the so far the 1097 00:46:59,419 --> 00:46:54,279 the reaction I've got is about 70% love 1098 00:47:03,929 --> 00:47:02,039 certain especially coming out of New 1099 00:47:05,729 --> 00:47:03,939 Mexico press I'm surprised that they 1100 00:47:07,469 --> 00:47:05,739 would supply it with a cover like that 1101 00:47:09,269 --> 00:47:07,479 well it's going on the assumption you 1102 00:47:11,219 --> 00:47:09,279 had nothing to do with it which I I'm 1103 00:47:13,019 --> 00:47:11,229 pretty sure you didn't well actually I 1104 00:47:14,789 --> 00:47:13,029 had something to do with it I'll tell 1105 00:47:16,919 --> 00:47:14,799 you a quick story on just cuz might find 1106 00:47:20,549 --> 00:47:16,929 interesting is that I had I was actually 1107 00:47:22,919 --> 00:47:20,559 at a horror and paranormal conference in 1108 00:47:26,880 --> 00:47:22,929 Lexington Kentucky about five or six 1109 00:47:28,709 --> 00:47:26,890 years ago and I was there I was giving a 1110 00:47:30,719 --> 00:47:28,719 talk there and I also had a booth I had 1111 00:47:31,979 --> 00:47:30,729 a board game called playing gods which 1112 00:47:35,640 --> 00:47:31,989 some of you may or may not know about 1113 00:47:36,689 --> 00:47:35,650 and I was you know as conferences are 1114 00:47:37,800 --> 00:47:36,699 you know there are times when there's 1115 00:47:39,090 --> 00:47:37,810 nobody there as you're just 1116 00:47:41,220 --> 00:47:39,100 sitting there unit within your thumbs 1117 00:47:43,470 --> 00:47:41,230 and say I took a break and stretched and 1118 00:47:45,870 --> 00:47:43,480 walked around and I I came across a 1119 00:47:50,100 --> 00:47:45,880 booth from horror photographer Josh ha 1120 00:47:52,080 --> 00:47:50,110 find HOF fi ne and I met him and I saw 1121 00:47:54,050 --> 00:47:52,090 some seen some of his prints and they 1122 00:47:57,060 --> 00:47:54,060 were really sort of creepy interesting 1123 00:47:58,770 --> 00:47:57,070 and he did the cover there and he does 1124 00:48:00,420 --> 00:47:58,780 all sorts of sort of zombie ones and 1125 00:48:03,060 --> 00:48:00,430 it's what's interesting that photography 1126 00:48:08,760 --> 00:48:03,070 is it's all practical he doesn't use CGI 1127 00:48:10,890 --> 00:48:08,770 it's all staged this one yeah and the 1128 00:48:13,020 --> 00:48:10,900 cardinal rule is in Hollywood never work 1129 00:48:14,700 --> 00:48:13,030 with animals or children right here you 1130 00:48:16,740 --> 00:48:14,710 got both old ghouls I don't know about 1131 00:48:19,260 --> 00:48:16,750 ghouls the undead and we got all three 1132 00:48:20,640 --> 00:48:19,270 of those sometimes yeah well you know 1133 00:48:22,620 --> 00:48:20,650 you just get the sedatives in the 1134 00:48:23,910 --> 00:48:22,630 kool-aid and you're fine but I'd met him 1135 00:48:25,500 --> 00:48:23,920 and I talked to him and I actually 1136 00:48:28,320 --> 00:48:25,510 bought a couple of his prints and I've 1137 00:48:29,730 --> 00:48:28,330 got him on my walls and so I stayed in 1138 00:48:32,490 --> 00:48:29,740 touch with him every now and then buy a 1139 00:48:34,380 --> 00:48:32,500 printer or a friend and then when when I 1140 00:48:36,600 --> 00:48:34,390 was finishing mysterious New Mexico 1141 00:48:40,110 --> 00:48:36,610 about row about a year ago now I was 1142 00:48:43,770 --> 00:48:40,120 looking for art for the the chapter on 1143 00:48:45,870 --> 00:48:43,780 La Llorona the whaling woman who kills 1144 00:48:48,900 --> 00:48:45,880 her children and is supposedly said to 1145 00:48:50,100 --> 00:48:48,910 be haunting ditches and waterways around 1146 00:48:52,770 --> 00:48:50,110 the world and particularly in Latin 1147 00:48:54,540 --> 00:48:52,780 America and so I have a fascinating at 1148 00:48:56,640 --> 00:48:54,550 least fascinating to me chapter on later 1149 00:48:58,200 --> 00:48:56,650 on and the folklore and all the actual 1150 00:49:00,210 --> 00:48:58,210 sightings including get into urban 1151 00:49:01,980 --> 00:49:00,220 legends and all this it was kind of a 1152 00:49:03,900 --> 00:49:01,990 difficult thing to illustrate because 1153 00:49:05,340 --> 00:49:03,910 you know no one's ever photographed her 1154 00:49:07,710 --> 00:49:05,350 and it's sort of a you know again an 1155 00:49:09,540 --> 00:49:07,720 urban legend folkloric figure and I 1156 00:49:11,850 --> 00:49:09,550 realized that this photograph that's on 1157 00:49:13,680 --> 00:49:11,860 the cover it's called swarm it covers a 1158 00:49:15,720 --> 00:49:13,690 lot of a lot of the elements of the 1159 00:49:18,030 --> 00:49:15,730 lighter on us so as far as I know it 1160 00:49:19,590 --> 00:49:18,040 wasn't intended to be a you know a 1161 00:49:21,450 --> 00:49:19,600 depiction of La Llorona but it certainly 1162 00:49:23,880 --> 00:49:21,460 is pretty close and then it would work 1163 00:49:25,110 --> 00:49:23,890 for that so I I contacted him and I said 1164 00:49:26,490 --> 00:49:25,120 hey you know I'm doing this book I met 1165 00:49:28,890 --> 00:49:26,500 you before he's like yeah fine whatever 1166 00:49:31,710 --> 00:49:28,900 so that photograph is actually on the 1167 00:49:33,240 --> 00:49:31,720 inside for it so it opens the chapter in 1168 00:49:34,560 --> 00:49:33,250 light aronia and so I was like okay cool 1169 00:49:37,470 --> 00:49:34,570 so I got the information for that and 1170 00:49:39,750 --> 00:49:37,480 then about two months later I got an 1171 00:49:41,490 --> 00:49:39,760 email from the editor of the book and 1172 00:49:44,460 --> 00:49:41,500 she's like yeah what do you think of our 1173 00:49:46,320 --> 00:49:44,470 cover and I looked at it I said that's a 1174 00:49:48,360 --> 00:49:46,330 creepy cover but I don't have permission 1175 00:49:50,520 --> 00:49:48,370 for that I only got permission to do the 1176 00:49:51,420 --> 00:49:50,530 inside to have the image on the inside 1177 00:49:53,460 --> 00:49:51,430 they Oh 1178 00:49:56,190 --> 00:49:53,470 to him he's fine you know he's happy 1179 00:50:01,260 --> 00:49:56,200 with it we're good like all right don't 1180 00:50:04,140 --> 00:50:01,270 you like it don't you yeah yeah it's 1181 00:50:05,190 --> 00:50:04,150 weird you know my concern was and I 1182 00:50:07,410 --> 00:50:05,200 don't I don't mean this in a negative 1183 00:50:09,630 --> 00:50:07,420 way but I was like well you know that 1184 00:50:11,069 --> 00:50:09,640 the title of the book is vertical it 1185 00:50:12,870 --> 00:50:11,079 makes it harder to read because you know 1186 00:50:14,370 --> 00:50:12,880 most both book titles are horizontal 1187 00:50:16,559 --> 00:50:14,380 that's in this particular case because 1188 00:50:18,150 --> 00:50:16,569 the layout of the the book cover it says 1189 00:50:19,819 --> 00:50:18,160 mysteriously Mexico and then I guess my 1190 00:50:22,829 --> 00:50:19,829 name is horizontal and that's important 1191

a little bit yeah I 1294 00:54:55,380 --> 00:54:53,620 mean lion Drona was it was a 1295 00:54:58,350 --> 00:54:55,390 particularly interesting chapter for me 1296 00:55:00,420 --> 00:54:58,360 partly because you know one of the 1297 00:55:02,790 --> 00:55:00,430 things that I do in my my research is 1298 00:55:05,340 --> 00:55:02,800 I'm big on looking into the folklore of 1299 00:55:07,500 --> 00:55:05,350 things and I've researched folklore in 1300 00:55:09,000 --> 00:55:07,510 fact I'm a couple years ago I'm a member 1301 00:55:10,310 --> 00:55:09,010 of the American folklore society and a 1302 00:55:12,900 --> 00:55:10,320 couple years back I gave a talk on 1303 00:55:15,180 --> 00:55:12,910 folklore of the chupacabra at their 1304 00:55:17,430 --> 00:55:15,190 conference and in fact later this year 1305 00:55:19,260 --> 00:55:17,440 in November in Santa Fe I here in New 1306 00:55:21,450 --> 00:55:19,270 Mexico they're having another conference 1307 00:55:23,940 --> 00:55:21,460 and I'm giving a presentation on the 1308 00:55:25,320 --> 00:55:23,950 folklore of organ theft urban legends 1309 00:55:27,330 --> 00:55:25,330 yeah the stories that you know your your 1310 00:55:29,760 --> 00:55:27,340 kidneys gone call 9-1-1 and the idea 1311 00:55:32,100 --> 00:55:29,770 that your kidneys been sold and stolen 1312 00:55:34,200 --> 00:55:32,110 on this so I'm always fascinated by the 1313 00:55:35,970 --> 00:55:34,210 folklore I it's important to me to not 1314 00:55:37,890 --> 00:55:35,980 stop at the folklore which is what a lot 1315 00:55:40,950 --> 00:55:37,900 of ghost hunters and amateurs do is they 1316 00:55:43,050 --> 00:55:40,960 say oh whoa oh yeah we found out that 1317 00:55:45,810 --> 00:55:43,060 there was you know a gunfighter named 1318 00:55:47,250 --> 00:55:45,820 Henry shot here in 1890 and Wow if 1319 00:55:49,080 --> 00:55:47,260 there's a if there's a ghost here it 1320 00:55:51,000 --> 00:55:49,090 must be Henry that's not doing folklore 1321 00:55:53,040 --> 00:55:51,010 that's not how that worked if there's a 1322 00:55:54,420 --> 00:55:53,050 specific ghost claim then you can you 1323 00:55:56,940 --> 00:55:54,430 may or may not be able to tie in some 1324 00:55:59,010 --> 00:55:56,950 actual historical figure but simply sort 1325 00:56:00,780 --> 00:55:59,020 of connecting the two isn't is not good 1326 00:56:03,390 --> 00:56:00,790 research that's not good folklore but 1327 00:56:05,310 --> 00:56:03,400 with La Llorona again I I had heard 1328 00:56:06,810 --> 00:56:05,320 stories later on a growing up here in 1329 00:56:08,370 --> 00:56:06,820 New Mexico I was 1330 00:56:09,560 --> 00:56:08,380 actually born in New York but I spent 1331 00:56:12,030 --> 00:56:09,570 most of my life in here in New Mexico 1332 00:56:13,830 --> 00:56:12,040 and even though I don't come from a 1333 00:56:15,780 --> 00:56:13,840 Hispanic family many of my friends were 1334 00:56:18,120 --> 00:56:15,790 Hispanic and growing up in the small 1335 00:56:20,580 --> 00:56:18,130 town of Corrales near the Rio Grande 1336 00:56:23,760 --> 00:56:20,590 River outside Albuquerque I would hear 1337 00:56:25,440 --> 00:56:23,770 stories of later ona and in fact the 1338 00:56:28,920 --> 00:56:25,450 local government the Albuquerque city 1339 00:56:32,370 --> 00:56:28,930 government would use the image of later 1340 00:56:33,930 --> 00:56:32,380 ona to scare kids there was a public 1341 00:56:36,360 --> 00:56:33,940 service campaign called ditches or 1342 00:56:39,180 --> 00:56:36,370 deadly stay away in the image it had a 1343 00:56:42,270 --> 00:56:39,190 had a sort of menacing cartoonish but 1344 00:56:44,310 --> 00:56:42,280 menacing witch who was you know staring 1345 00:56:46,440 --> 00:56:44,320 at you saying you know don't go near the 1346 00:56:48,780 --> 00:56:46,450 water because you'll you'll die and the 1347 00:56:50,160 --> 00:56:48,790 the implicit message was it's clearly 1348 00:56:52,320 --> 00:56:50,170 like a Rona I mean that that's that's 1349 00:56:54,300 --> 00:56:52,330 the image they were using and they were 1350 00:56:56,790 --> 00:56:54,310 essentially using in sort of co-opting 1351 00:56:59,010 --> 00:56:56,800 interesting folklore of the region in 1352 00:57:01,500 --> 00:56:59,020 order to to tell people to you know it's 1353 00:57:03,300 --> 00:57:01,510 particularly kids to stay away from from 1354 00:57:05,220 --> 00:57:03,310 from ditches drainage ditches because of 1355 00:57:06,390 --> 00:57:05,230 for example flash flood warnings stay 1356 00:57:07,530 --> 00:57:06,400 away from the river things like that 1357 00:57:10,020 --> 00:57:07,540 because of course they could they could 1358 00:57:11,130 --> 00:57:10,030 drown the essential light on the story 1359 00:57:13,260 --> 00:57:11,140 there's there's lots of different 1360 00:57:15,330 --> 00:57:13,270 variations but the basic story is that 1361 00:57:18,540 --> 00:57:15,340 people here in New Mexico and elsewhere 1362 00:57:20,820 --> 00:57:18,550 are are they're told usually it's 1363 00:57:23,040 --> 00:57:20,830 usually its parents telling children not 1364 00:57:24,990 --> 00:57:23,050 to go near the water unattended you know 1365 00:57:27,030 --> 00:57:25,000 be very careful near the water and the 1366 00:57:28,560 --> 00:57:27,040 the the course the real reason is 1367 00:57:30,270 --> 00:57:28,570 because they don't want them to fall in 1368 00:57:32,940 --> 00:57:30,280 and have some bad happen but the the 1369 00:57:36,150 --> 00:57:32,950 sort of more fantastical reason is that 1370 00:57:38,220 --> 00:57:36,160 the story goes that if you are alone 1371 00:57:39,120 --> 00:57:38,230 near the water usually you know there's 1372 00:57:41,190 --> 00:57:39,130 all sorts of again 1373 00:57:44,160 --> 00:57:41,200 also all sorts of variants sometimes 1374 00:57:45,780 --> 00:57:44,170 it's on a on a moonless night and the 1375 00:57:48,510 --> 00:57:45,790 story goes that if you're if you're near 1376 00:57:54,450 --> 00:57:48,520 the water that you you'll sometimes hear 1377 00:57:56,820 --> 00:57:54,460 of a call yeah which means my daughter's 1378 00:57:59,670 --> 00:57:56,830 my daughter's for me host me see host my 1379 00:58:01,320 --> 00:57:59,680 children won't mind my boys and if you 1380 00:58:03,000 --> 00:58:01,330 hear this and sometimes of course is 1381 00:58:04,200 --> 00:58:03,010 combined with rustling in the trees you 1382 00:58:05,370 --> 00:58:04,210 know the wind going through the trees so 1383 00:58:08,040 --> 00:58:05,380 you can sort of interpret the evidence 1384 00:58:10,140 --> 00:58:08,050 either way that if you hear this three 1385 00:58:12,570 --> 00:58:10,150 times lighter onna will come and get you 1386 00:58:15,540 --> 00:58:12,580 and the idea is that she's this woman 1387 00:58:17,970 --> 00:58:15,550 who drowned her children and she's now 1388 00:58:20,250 --> 00:58:17,980 walking the waterways the the ditches 1389 00:58:20,760 --> 00:58:20,260 and rivers and lakes looking for 1390 00:58:22,740 --> 00:58:20,770 children 1391 00:58:25,380 --> 00:58:22,750 grabbed and abduct to replace her own 1392 00:58:26,910 --> 00:58:25,390 children and that the backstory is that 1393 00:58:29,220 --> 00:58:26,920 she was there again there's a couple 1394 00:58:32,100 --> 00:58:29,230 variations but one one common one is 1395 00:58:34,590 --> 00:58:32,110 that she was a beautiful young woman who 1396 00:58:36,360 --> 00:58:34,600 had three children usually three 1397 00:58:39,150 --> 00:58:36,370 sometimes two or four but three is about 1398 00:58:41,760 --> 00:58:39,160 average and that she fell in love with 1399 00:58:44,520 --> 00:58:41,770 her husband had died and she fell in 1400 00:58:46,710 --> 00:58:44,530 love with a young man who would come to 1401 00:58:48,660 --> 00:58:46,720 town but he couldn't accept her children 1402 00:58:50,280 --> 00:58:48,670 he said you know I love you and I want 1403 00:58:51,810 --> 00:58:50,290 to be with you but I I can't I can't 1404 00:58:56,400 --> 00:58:51,820 have a ready-made family like this 1405 00:58:57,960 --> 00:58:56,410 and so yeah in her so she she she ended 1406 00:58:59,880 --> 00:58:57,970 up drowning her children for his love 1407 00:59:02,250 --> 00:58:59,890 and she took him to the river and drown 1408 00:59:04,560 --> 00:59:02,260 them one by one and then they they died 1409 00:59:06,480 --> 00:59:04,570 and then soon she realized the horrific 1410 00:59:10,020 --> 00:59:06,490 crime that she'd done and she became mad 1411 00:59:12,840 --> 00:59:10,030 with grief and to this day she would you 1412 00:59:14,730 --> 00:59:12,850 know be seen in a very very tied in with 1413 00:59:16,770 --> 00:59:14,740 ghosts ghost stories and ghost lore of 1414 00:59:18,660 --> 00:59:16,780 course to this day she's seen up and 1415 00:59:21,270 --> 00:59:18,670 going up and down looking for children 1416 00:59:23,730 --> 00:59:21,280 to abduct yeah I found some very 1417 00:59:26,780 --> 00:59:23,740 interesting historical accounts that 1418 00:59:30,420 --> 00:59:26,790 could be related to proto La Llorona 1419 00:59:32,910 --> 00:59:30,430 Tigers belief going all the way back 1420 00:59:36,750 --> 00:59:32,920 into the Mayan culture in one example 1421 00:59:38,490 --> 00:59:36,760 and then also back to Spain mm-hmm so it 1422 00:59:41,370 --> 00:59:38,500 may have been brought over by the 1423 00:59:44,190 --> 00:59:41,380 conquistadores and and sort of morphed 1424 00:59:46,200 --> 00:59:44,200 in with a Mayan sort of twist to it and 1425 00:59:49,050 --> 00:59:46,210 then it's of course over hundreds of 1426 00:59:50,640 --> 00:59:49,060 years it's grown legs and a life of its 1427 00:59:55,530 --> 00:59:50,650 own and in Colorado it's a little 1428 00:59:57,450 --> 00:59:55,540 different it's a woman who again drowned 1429 01:00:01,140 --> 00:59:57,460 her children but then she drowned 1430 01:00:04,110 --> 01:00:01,150 herself and she is now a ghost wandering 1431 01:00:06,750 --> 01:00:04,120 up and down the canals that shoot off 1432 01:00:08,700 --> 01:00:06,760 the various rivers up in the San Luis 1433 01:00:11,670 --> 01:00:08,710 Valley and I have had a number of 1434 01:00:13,910 --> 01:00:11,680 reports over the years of people mostly 1435 01:00:16,770 --> 01:00:13,920 on the southwest side of the valley and 1436 01:00:20,070 --> 01:00:16,780 predominantly Hispanic area they're 1437 01:00:22,340 --> 01:00:20,080 reporting a very bizarre wailing sound 1438 01:00:25,110 --> 01:00:22,350 that did not conform to any of the local 1439 01:00:28,590 --> 01:00:25,120 wildlife any sort of environmental 1440 01:00:32,010 --> 01:00:28,600 sounds and engine basically they would 1441 01:00:33,570 --> 01:00:32,020 say look I my family and myself have 1442 01:00:34,860 --> 01:00:33,580 never heard anything like this we we 1443 01:00:37,200 --> 01:00:34,870 called our neighbors they went 1444 01:00:40,260 --> 01:00:37,210 outside they heard it too you know we 1445 01:00:46,230 --> 01:00:40,270 can't figure out what it is so it must 1446 01:00:47,880 --> 01:00:46,240 be law your own to get that I know I 1447 01:00:49,620 --> 01:00:47,890 love that sort of story and I heard 1448 01:00:51,150 --> 01:00:49,630 similar things I hear and here in 1449 01:00:53,730 --> 01:00:51,160 Albuquerque when I was interviewing 1450 01:00:55,110 --> 01:00:53,740 people and also I came across a great 1451 01:00:57,390 --> 01:00:55,120 book I don't have write in Fernie but 1452 01:01:00,000 --> 01:00:57,400 there's a great book by to Santa Fe 1453 01:01:02,460 --> 01:01:00,010 researchers who had collected I think 1454 01:01:03,660 --> 01:01:02,470 over 50 stories of later onna like true 1455 01:01:05,310 --> 01:01:03,670 first-hand reports again we're not 1456 01:01:07,020 --> 01:01:05,320 talking like you know it is said that 1457 01:01:08,760 --> 01:01:07,030 these are people who truly which is of 1458 01:01:11,070 --> 01:01:08,770 course is one of the one of the 1459 01:01:12,480 --> 01:01:11,080 characteristics of an urban legend it's 1460 01:01:15,480 --> 01:01:12,490 you know what we call folk tales or a 1461 01:01:18,030 --> 01:01:15,490 friend of a friend fo AF which is you 1462 01:01:19,980 --> 01:01:18,040 know maybe I didn't see La Llorona but 1463 01:01:22,920 --> 01:01:19,990 you know my friends cousins grandmothers 1464 01:01:26,160 --> 01:01:22,930 you know gardeners cab drivers boyfriend 1465 01:01:28,260 --> 01:01:26,170 did or vice versa or in some cases the 1466 01:01:29,730 --> 01:01:28,270 it's actually you huh you have the 1467 01:01:31,770 --> 01:01:29,740 lighter own stories incorporated into 1468 01:01:33,450 --> 01:01:31,780 family lore and so there's a couple 1469 01:01:36,600 --> 01:01:33,460 cases that I actually I actually quote a 1470 01:01:39,480 --> 01:01:36,610 woman at the opening part of the chapter 1471 01:01:42,720 --> 01:01:39,490 who who's who's relating a story told by 1472 01:01:46,170 --> 01:01:42,730 her grandmother and that when she was a 1473 01:01:47,550 --> 01:01:46,180 child in Albuquerque she she went down 1474 01:01:49,950 --> 01:01:47,560 to the river and you know she and her 1475 01:01:50,670 --> 01:01:49,960 brothers were down there and later on I 1476 01:01:53,130 --> 01:01:50,680 came up together 1477 01:01:54,720 --> 01:01:53,140 and and told this whole whole story as a 1478 01:01:55,830 --> 01:01:54,730 first-person story and so it's 1479 01:01:58,110 --> 01:01:55,840 fascinating to sort of look at these 1480 01:02:00,240 --> 01:01:58,120 things and sort of see the see the the 1481 01:02:02,280 --> 01:02:00,250 you know the different variations and 1482 01:02:05,040 --> 01:02:02,290 and you know you were talking about you 1483 01:02:07,770 --> 01:02:05,050 know how people truly believe this and a 1484 01:02:10,920 --> 01:02:07,780 lot of times what happens is that it's 1485 01:02:13,080 --> 01:02:10,930 not just a cautionary tale for children 1486 01:02:14,940 --> 01:02:13,090 I mean many times it is because one of 1487 01:02:16,590 --> 01:02:14,950 the main functions is know trying to 1488 01:02:18,750 --> 01:02:16,600 keep kids safe but what's interesting 1489 01:02:20,250 --> 01:02:18,760 about the law your honor story is that 1490 01:02:22,140 --> 01:02:20,260 it has a message for children the 1491 01:02:24,030 --> 01:02:22,150 message for children is you know don't 1492 01:02:25,410 --> 01:02:24,040 go near a dangerous place because bad 1493 01:02:27,810 --> 01:02:25,420 things can happen to you whether it's 1494 01:02:29,970 --> 01:02:27,820 later on or falling in the river but it 1495 01:02:32,460 --> 01:02:29,980 also at the at the same time has another 1496 01:02:35,190 --> 01:02:32,470 has another context which is a message 1497 01:02:38,970 --> 01:02:35,200 to parents and the message to parents is 1498 01:02:41,280 --> 01:02:38,980 keep an eye on your kids and so by by by 1499 01:02:45,630 --> 01:02:41,290 creating or using this sort of 1500 01:02:48,540 --> 01:02:45,640 independent third third party ghost evil 1501 01:02:50,490 --> 01:02:48,550 spirit then it threatens both of 1502 01:02:53,610 --> 01:02:50,500 and it's a really interesting element of 1503 01:02:55,140 --> 01:02:53,620 social control and and so you sort of 1504 01:02:57,720 --> 01:02:55,150 get messages for both parents and 1505 01:03:00,000 --> 01:02:57,730 children then you've also got people who 1506 01:03:02,400 --> 01:03:00,010 are talking about how as adults they 1507 01:03:03,840 --> 01:03:02,410 were told not to go out because light 1508 01:03:05,400 --> 01:03:03,850 Rona will get you so one of the 1509 01:03:07,560 --> 01:03:05,410 fascinating things is that some of the 1510 01:03:09,660 --> 01:03:07,570 stories are actually of adults through 1511 01:03:11,280 --> 01:03:09,670 being warned so they say you know their 1512 01:03:13,260 --> 01:03:11,290 stories like well yeah my husband used 1513 01:03:14,850 --> 01:03:13,270 to chase girls and drink but then one 1514 01:03:16,620 --> 01:03:14,860 night when he was when he was out there 1515 01:03:18,780 --> 01:03:16,630 doing that he actually saw my Llorona 1516 01:03:21,240 --> 01:03:18,790 and to this day he hasn't touched a drop 1517 01:03:24,060 --> 01:03:21,250 of liquor and he's faithful as ever so 1518 01:03:26,580 -->

01:08:11,749 cast calm so let me ask you a quick 1626 01:08:16,599 --> 01:08:13,819 question here Ben Radford as we continue 1627 01:08:20,439 --> 01:08:16,609 with mysterious new mexico has there 1628 01:08:23,200 --> 01:08:20,449 ever been an unusual case anywhere that 1629 01:08:25,769 --> 01:08:23,210 you think might be something that cannot 1630 01:08:27,789 --> 01:08:25,779 be explained in a mundane fashion 1631 01:08:31,899 --> 01:08:27,799 inquiring minds want to know 1632 01:08:33,970 --> 01:08:31,909 know it's kind of a hard question to 1633 01:08:36,309 --> 01:08:33,980 answer I mean I'm not trying to evade it 1634 01:08:38,260 --> 01:08:36,319 but it's part of the issue is that in 1635 01:08:40,539 --> 01:08:38,270 virtually every case that I have 1636 01:08:43,149 --> 01:08:40,549 investigated I have found what I 1637 01:08:45,519 --> 01:08:43,159 consider to be a plausible legitimate 1638 01:08:47,620 --> 01:08:45,529 science-based answer now that doesn't 1639 01:08:49,870 --> 01:08:47,630 mean that if I investigate a haunted 1640 01:08:51,399 --> 01:08:49,880 house next week or a ghost sighting you 1641 01:08:53,769 --> 01:08:51,409 know or monster sighting whatever else 1642 01:08:56,349 --> 01:08:53,779 next month or next year it won't be 1643 01:08:59,169 --> 01:08:56,359 paranormal or truly of unknown origin 1644 01:09:00,579 --> 01:08:59,179 but part of the issue is that the cases 1645 01:09:02,109 --> 01:09:00,589 that I choose to spend my time on 1646 01:09:04,180 --> 01:09:02,119 because it's it's very much my own time 1647 01:09:05,620 --> 01:09:04,190 and and this is mostly independently 1648 01:09:07,539 --> 01:09:05,630 funded it's not like I've got you know 1649 01:09:09,279 --> 01:09:07,549 some some foundation throwing the 1650 01:09:10,959 --> 01:09:09,289 thousands of dollars to do these these 1651 01:09:13,329 --> 01:09:10,969 investigations it's pretty much on my 1652 01:09:15,999 --> 01:09:13,339 own time my own time because of that I 1653 01:09:17,979 --> 01:09:16,009 have to choose the cases that are that 1654 01:09:21,039 --> 01:09:17,989 there's good quality evidence for them 1655 01:09:23,169 --> 01:09:21,049 so so because I'm gonna naturally going 1656 01:09:25,059 --> 01:09:23,179 to choose the cases where there's more 1657 01:09:27,039 --> 01:09:25,069 information you know if given the choice 1658 01:09:28,569 --> 01:09:27,049 between someone saying well you know 20 1659 01:09:30,309 --> 01:09:28,579 years ago I was camping in the mountains 1660 01:09:32,799 --> 01:09:30,319 and I saw this weird mysterious thing 1661 01:09:34,029 --> 01:09:32,809 fly overhead and that's it 1662 01:09:35,620 --> 01:09:34,039 you know no one else saw it there's no 1663 01:09:37,720 --> 01:09:35,630 photos and videos there's nothing I can 1664 01:09:39,910 --> 01:09:37,730 do with that it may be totally true it 1665 01:09:41,589 --> 01:09:39,920 could it actually been a UFO but there's 1666 01:09:43,809 --> 01:09:41,599 not enough evidence for me to work from 1667 01:09:46,689 --> 01:09:43,819 I would rather investigate a case where 1668 01:09:47,709 --> 01:09:46,699 yes there's this mysterious hotel and 1669 01:09:49,390 --> 01:09:47,719 there's these videos and all the 1670 01:09:51,039 --> 01:09:49,400 eyewitnesses and so there's there's a 1671 01:09:54,249 --> 01:09:51,049 there's a positive correlation between 1672 01:09:55,779 --> 01:09:54,259 how likely a mystery is to be solved and 1673 01:09:59,799 --> 01:09:55,789 how much evidence there is for it and so 1674 01:10:01,209 --> 01:09:59,809 I select the ones that I that there's 1675 01:10:02,649 --> 01:10:01,219 most evidence for and not search the 1676 01:10:05,109 --> 01:10:02,659 ones that I think I can debunk because I 1677 01:10:07,540 --> 01:10:05,119 I like a challenge I mean I I would love 1678 01:10:09,070 --> 01:10:07,550 to find some mystery though that I can't 1679 01:10:11,230 --> 01:10:09,080 solve and maybe one day I will 1680 01:10:13,810 --> 01:10:11,240 but for the most part the ones I'm 1681 01:10:16,030 --> 01:10:13,820 looking at are ones that that are 1682 01:10:18,420 --> 01:10:16,040 potentially solvable and I'm generally 1683 01:10:21,070 --> 01:10:18,430 successful at it yeah I totally agree 1684 01:10:23,050 --> 01:10:21,080 I've said a number of times over the 1685 01:10:24,580 --> 01:10:23,060 years at conferences and when I've been 1686 01:10:27,610 --> 01:10:24,590 asked have you ever been punked or 1687 01:10:31,870 --> 01:10:27,620 hoaxed I always bring up the the Crystal 1688 01:10:33,940 --> 01:10:31,880 Skull event which I debunked by the way 1689 01:10:35,230 --> 01:10:33,950 which you don't acknowledge that in the 1690 01:10:41,590 --> 01:10:35,240 book you never called me why did you 1691 01:10:44,590 --> 01:10:41,600 call me been givin you a lot of very 1692 01:10:46,540 --> 01:10:44,600 interesting information about finally 1693 01:10:49,150 --> 01:10:46,550 being able to locate the the make of the 1694 01:10:52,960 --> 01:10:49,160 Glasgow I totally gave you credit I mean 1695 01:10:54,460 --> 01:10:52,970 you're you're loud I'm sorry now and you 1696 01:10:56,290 --> 01:10:54,470 love me and we're the true believers you 1697 01:10:59,080 --> 01:10:56,300 did not put my name on the crest own 1698 01:11:01,000 --> 01:10:59,090 Eagle article which exposed the hoax I 1699 01:11:03,010 --> 01:11:01,010 didn't know you wrote the crow no no cuz 1700 01:11:05,800 --> 01:11:03,020 Brad told me that he'd never mentioned 1701 01:11:12,760 --> 01:11:05,810 the second book where I go into detail 1702 01:11:14,830 --> 01:11:12,770 about my debunking of the all right my 1703 01:11:18,340 --> 01:11:14,840 bad you know this this case occurred 1704 01:11:20,800 --> 01:11:18,350 almost 200 miles away from New Mexico as 1705 01:11:22,650 --> 01:11:20,810 well I won't quibble on that one I 1706 01:11:24,910 --> 01:11:22,660 consider the the San Luis Valley 1707 01:11:27,610 --> 01:11:24,920 geologically because the valley actually 1708 01:11:29,200 --> 01:11:27,620 does geologically the tip of it the 1709 01:11:32,260 --> 01:11:29,210 southern tip of it does go down to Taos 1710 01:11:34,150 --> 01:11:32,270 mm-hmm but the actual name San Luis 1711 01:11:36,610 --> 01:11:34,160 Valley only refers to the Colorado 1712 01:11:37,600 --> 01:11:36,620 portion of it I don't want it quits 1713 01:11:39,970 --> 01:11:37,610 right that's fine 1714 01:11:41,440 --> 01:11:39,980 you know I investigated cases outside of 1715 01:11:43,750 --> 01:11:41,450 the valley and referred to it as the 1716 01:11:45,520 --> 01:11:43,760 Greater San Luis Valley so okay anyway 1717 01:11:47,980 --> 01:11:45,530 let's let's talk about the the skull 1718 01:11:49,810 --> 01:11:47,990 case I'd love to hear your synopsis on 1719 01:11:51,790 --> 01:11:49,820 this and then I'll I'll chime in with 1720 01:11:54,250 --> 01:11:51,800 some pertinent details being that I am 1721 01:11:57,040 --> 01:11:54,260 the person that actually publicized this 1722 01:11:58,990 --> 01:11:57,050 particular claim by Donna coach 1723 01:12:00,550 --> 01:11:59,000 absolutely and this is one of the this 1724 01:12:03,250 --> 01:12:00,560 is one of the cool parts about being a 1725 01:12:05,950 --> 01:12:03,260 researcher is being able to to go back 1726 01:12:08,320 --> 01:12:05,960 and you know and and show you know who 1727 01:12:10,450 --> 01:12:08,330 had these different roles in it yeah I 1728 01:12:12,940 --> 01:12:10,460 mean I I've always assumed that that you 1729 01:12:15,100 --> 01:12:12,950 are one of the one of the one of the 1730 01:12:16,030 --> 01:12:15,110 people that put this together i but one 1731 01:12:18,190 --> 01:12:16,040 of the things about thus ensuring that 1732 01:12:20,170 --> 01:12:18,200 this chapter is that I was able 1733 01:12:22,600 --> 01:12:20,180 successfully I think but you may think 1734 01:12:25,240 --> 01:12:22,610 otherwise to tell to pare 1735 01:12:28,840 --> 01:12:25,250 all stories so on one hand we had we had 1736 01:12:29,950 --> 01:12:28,850 Donna coach that's that's okay is how 1737 01:12:32,200 --> 01:12:29,960 she pronounced it yeah 1738 01:12:33,970 --> 01:12:32,210 okay watch some people pronounced it 1739 01:12:36,040 --> 01:12:33,980 Koch's well I like the color brothers 1740 01:12:38,439 --> 01:12:36,050 those are two totally different seasons 1741 01:12:41,709 --> 01:12:38,449 but you met her which one does she say 1742 01:12:43,840 --> 01:12:41,719 she said coach but it's actually 1743 01:12:44,950 --> 01:12:43,850 pronounced coach so you're saying that 1744 01:12:46,930 --> 01:12:44,960 it's actually pronounced differently 1745 01:12:48,910 --> 01:12:46,940 that she pronounced it yeah there's 1746 01:12:53,140 --> 01:12:48,920 there's very there's different ways to 1747 01:12:55,120 --> 01:12:53,150 say it smoke its cook it scotch same 1748 01:12:58,270 --> 01:12:55,130 spelling there's different ways to say 1749 01:13:01,780 --> 01:12:58,280 it well she called herself Donna Koch 1750 01:13:04,629 --> 01:13:01,790 Donna Conover so so we have her her 1751 01:13:06,459 --> 01:13:04,639 crystal skull which of course as as you 1752 01:13:07,660 --> 01:13:06,469 know and others know it was not actually 1753 01:13:09,340 --> 01:13:07,670 crystal but it's you know that was 1754 01:13:10,930 --> 01:13:09,350 certainly the tied in with the whole 1755 01:13:13,450 --> 01:13:10,940 thing and then we have the 1756 01:13:15,310 --> 01:13:13,460 mitchell-hedges skull which is the most 1757 01:13:16,840 --> 01:13:15,320 the most famous one so I tried to sort 1758 01:13:18,970 --> 01:13:16,850 of tell these two parallel stories yes 1759 01:13:21,459 --> 01:13:18,980 it was a good good job doing that by the 1760 01:13:22,689 --> 01:13:21,469 way I like thank you I was trying to 1761 01:13:26,109 --> 01:13:22,699 sort of because it's it's fascinating 1762 01:13:28,810 --> 01:13:26,119 story so this is why you know for 1763 01:13:30,879 --> 01:13:28,820 example the the Crystal Skull story as I 1764 01:13:32,740 --> 01:13:30,889 noted know Aryans you know it as well 1765 01:13:34,629 --> 01:13:32,750 it's not it's not I don't consider that 1766 01:13:36,790 --> 01:13:34,639 to be a certainly uniquely New Mexican 1767 01:13:39,340 --> 01:13:36,800 mystery has has connections you know 1768 01:13:41,379 --> 01:13:39,350 Brad was down here and the skulls were 1769 01:13:44,080 --> 01:13:41,389 here where else but in terms of you know 1770 01:13:49,270 --> 01:13:44,090 it certainly could could be in a book on 1771 01:13:50,350 --> 01:13:49,280 Colorado as well because some people are 1772 01:13:53,430 --> 01:13:50,360 scratching their heads going what the 1773 01:13:55,450 --> 01:13:53,440 heck they died right right so basically 1774 01:13:57,000 --> 01:13:55,460 there's a hint well it's sort of hard to 1775 01:13:59,590 --> 01:13:57,010 figure out where do you start basically 1776 01:14:01,750 --> 01:13:59,600 there's a strong tradition in new-age 1777 01:14:03,310 --> 01:14:01,760 circles of the importance of crystals 1778 01:14:04,540 --> 01:14:03,320 and you know that it's you know all 1779 01:14:06,100 --> 01:14:04,550 these has all

gems in the new-age circles and in 1783 01:14:16,510 --> 01:14:13,040 addition to that you also have these 1784 01:14:18,280 --> 01:14:16,520 skulls that are carved and and other 1785 01:14:20,950 -->

sort of legendary 1799 01:15:00,310 --> 01:14:58,550 context to it you know of course if 1800 01:15:01,450 --> 01:15:00,320 Steven Spielberg and Indiana Jones and 1801 01:15:04,270 --> 01:15:01,460 all this and so there's lots of 1802 01:15:06,250 --> 01:15:04,280 fascinating lore behind these and so the 1803 01:15:08,530 --> 01:15:06,260 story that I that I heard and again here 1804 01:15:10,600 --> 01:15:08,540 Chris you're by far the more expert on 1805 01:15:12,430 --> 01:15:10,610 this and I am so if I made corrections 1806 01:15:14,890 --> 01:15:12,440 please please feel free to chime in 1807 01:15:16,870 --> 01:15:14,900 I'll jump right in I'm sure you will the 1808 01:15:20,590 --> 01:15:16,880 according to one version that I heard 1809 01:15:23,470 --> 01:15:20,600 that the the Donna and a teenage Ranch 1810 01:15:25,480 --> 01:15:23,480 Hand were cruising around her property 1811 01:15:27,340 --> 01:15:25,490 in rural what's what's the name of that 1812 01:15:29,560 --> 01:15:27,350 particular area you have a better than 1813 01:15:31,210 --> 01:15:29,570 often just outside of Moffett Colorado 1814 01:15:32,920 --> 01:15:31,220 just outside them off the Colorado thank 1815 01:15:34,540 --> 01:15:32,930 you and again depending on there's 1816 01:15:36,040 --> 01:15:34,550 there's different versions which is why 1817 01:15:37,720 --> 01:15:36,050 it's sort of hard to tease out and say 1818 01:15:38,800 --> 01:15:37,730 this is the official version because 1819 01:15:40,360 --> 01:15:38,810 there's different people to say 1820 01:15:44,230 --> 01:15:40,370 different things but according to one 1821 01:15:46,390 --> 01:15:44,240 version her ranch hand went over some 1822 01:15:48,370 --> 01:15:46,400 distance and found this this item and 1823 01:15:51,640 --> 01:15:48,380 brought it back to her and it was this 1824 01:15:54,700 --> 01:15:51,650 weird either glass or crystal skull 1825 01:15:57,010 --> 01:15:54,710 looking figure and in another version I 1826 01:15:58,900 --> 01:15:57,020 I read that she herself found it so 1827 01:16:00,940 --> 01:15:58,910 there's some confusion there but she 1828 01:16:03,100 --> 01:16:00,950 then was wondering what is this 1829 01:16:05,530 --> 01:16:03,110 mysterious thing didn't know what it was 1830 01:16:07,930 --> 01:16:05,540 you know it's basically not in the 1831 01:16:10,150 --> 01:16:07,940 middle of nowhere but it's it's not on 1832 01:16:11,740 --> 01:16:10,160 the northeast corner of her property 1833 01:16:15,130 --> 01:16:11,750 northeast corner of her property right 1834 01:16:18,490 --> 01:16:15,140 so this is rural area and she sees this 1835 01:16:20,410 --> 01:16:18,500 and then takes it back home and and says 1836 01:16:22,180 --> 01:16:20,420 you know what

Yucatan and in 1972 01:22:29,740 --> 01:22:28,220 Guatemala and so I called Nick no siree 1973 01:22:31,360 --> 01:22:29,750 know who at the time was considered the 1974 01:22:33,460 --> 01:22:31,370 top expert and he laughed at me he said 1975 01:22:37,900 --> 01:22:33,470 that you know there's just no way that 1976 01:22:40,390 --> 01:22:37,910 that's a genuine hi strange legendary 1977 01:22:42,990 --> 01:22:40,400 crystal skull and so you know I I 1978 01:22:44,710 --> 01:22:43,000 started my investigation automatically 1979 01:22:46,720 --> 01:22:44,720 assuming that there was something 1980 01:22:49,420 --> 01:22:46,730 strange about it but when I went out and 1981 01:22:52,240 --> 01:22:49,430 saw it the second time I went out to 1982 01:22:53,890 --> 01:22:52,250 film it with my video camera I'm not 1983 01:22:55,390 --> 01:22:53,900 sure the sequence of events here but 1984 01:22:59,110 --> 01:22:55,400 Donna said that she had brought it out 1985 01:23:01,210 --> 01:22:59,120 and a tire had exploded I think it was 1986 01:23:03,799 --> 01:23:01,220 on their truck of the trailer that they 1987 01:23:05,540 --> 01:23:03,809 don't know why it exploded it may have 1988 01:23:07,040 --> 01:23:05,550 than the air heating up in there and 1989 01:23:10,990 --> 01:23:07,050 there was a weak point in the tire but 1990 01:23:13,250 --> 01:23:11,000 it exploded I saw the exploded tire also 1991 01:23:15,049 --> 01:23:13,260 she claimed that there's a weird smell 1992 01:23:17,689 --> 01:23:15,059 that she smelled when it was brought out 1993 01:23:21,140 --> 01:23:17,699 from a kitchen cabinet and so she 1994 01:23:23,689 --> 01:23:21,150 started to subscribe to this kind of 1995 01:23:25,580 --> 01:23:23,699 mysteriousness around it and I'm 1996 01:23:27,080 --> 01:23:25,590 listening to all this and I go to to 1997 01:23:29,479 --> 01:23:27,090 start the videotape the skull in my 1998 01:23:31,069 --> 01:23:29,489 video camera was broken it just would 1999 01:23:35,029 --> 01:23:31,079 not work and it never did work after 2000 01:23:38,000 --> 01:23:35,039 that so today I really think that what 2001 01:23:40,160 --> 01:23:38,010 she had found was anything extraordinary 2002 01:23:41,990 --> 01:23:40,170 or by any stretch but then these weird 2003 01:23:43,060 --> 01:23:42,000 coincidences started piling up and I'll 2004 01:23:46,819 --> 01:23:43,070 let you take it from there 2005 01:23:49,520 --> 01:23:46,829 yeah so you had these and it's cool to 2006 01:23:51,830 --> 01:23:49,530 hear that I'm curious by the exploded 2007 01:23:53,720 --> 01:23:51,840 tire did it literally explode it yeah 2008 01:23:56,620 --> 01:23:53,730 yeah it looked like it had blown up from 2009 01:23:59,540 --> 01:23:56,630 the inside out it was on it was on the 2010 01:24:02,600 --> 01:23:59,550 trailer interesting okay because I mean 2011 01:24:10,430 --> 01:24:02,610 normally if if normally a tire wouldn't 2012 01:24:13,549 --> 01:24:10,440 explode I mean if there's so at that 2013 01:24:15,260 --> 01:24:13,559 point then she begins looking into and 2014 01:24:17,120 --> 01:24:15,270 again I'm sort of going by the structure 2015 01:24:19,520 --> 01:24:17,130 of the of the of the Bukit which is 2016 01:24:21,169 --> 01:24:19,530 correct as far as I know that she began 2017 01:24:24,350 --> 01:24:21,179 you know she was consulting with you and 2018 01:24:26,600 --> 01:24:24,360 then you were doing your best to try and 2019 01:24:28,760 --> 01:24:26,610 figure out what was going on well and 2020 01:24:31,339 --> 01:24:28,770 then meanwhile of course and I don't 2021 01:24:32,600 --> 01:24:31,349 know Donna coaches I don't know her 2022 01:24:35,109 --> 01:24:32,610 background in terms of whether she was 2023 01:24:38,620 --> 01:24:35,119 sort of a new age or what what her 2024 01:24:43,270 --> 01:24:38,630 hardscrabble you know French folks yeah 2025 01:24:46,580 --> 01:24:43,280 conservative right right so inclinations 2026 01:24:48,649 --> 01:24:46,590 towards that aspect of belief at all to 2027 01:24:50,750 --> 01:24:48,659 my knowledge right and what's 2028 01:24:52,760 --> 01:24:50,760 interesting about is that over and over 2029 01:24:54,919 --> 01:24:52,770 again in in my research to what happens 2030 01:24:56,510 --> 01:24:54,929 is that someone will find will discover 2031 01:24:59,080 --> 01:24:56,520 something they can't explain some sort 2032 01:25:01,939 --> 01:24:59,090 of unusual object or whatever it is and 2033 01:25:04,189 --> 01:25:01,949 particularly in the last 10-15 years and 2034 01:25:06,620 --> 01:25:04,199 where do they go with it they go to 2035 01:25:09,049 --> 01:25:06,630 internet they go to Google in this case 2036 01:25:10,669 --> 01:25:09,059 that was further back but but you people 2037 01:25:13,129 --> 01:25:10,679 are trying to figure out what's what is 2038 01:25:15,979 --> 01:25:13,139 this thing and these days that's one 2039 01:25:17,660 --> 01:25:15,989 reason for example why a lot of mangy 2040 01:25:20,060 --> 01:25:17,670 dogs and coyotes in Texas and 2041 01:25:22,430 --> 01:25:20,070 elsewhere are called chupacabras because 2042 01:25:23,720 --> 01:25:22,440 someone finds a dead animal they don't 2043 01:25:25,580 --> 01:25:23,730 immediately recognize it and they're 2044 01:25:27,500 --> 01:25:25,590 like well make Google dead weird dead 2045 01:25:29,120 --> 01:25:27,510 animal chupacabra pops up they're like 2046 01:25:32,060 --> 01:25:29,130 well this must be chupacabra like oh 2047 01:25:34,910 --> 01:25:32,070 that's not how that works guilt by 2048 01:25:37,280 --> 01:25:34,920 disassociation exactly yeah well put 2049 01:25:39,290 --> 01:25:37,290 well put but that's what happens even on 2050 01:25:41,630 --> 01:25:39,300 even without the internet you know you 2051 01:25:43,450 --> 01:25:41,640 with books and magazines and there are 2052 01:25:46,910 --> 01:25:43,460 sorts of things if you look up 2053 01:25:48,560 --> 01:25:46,920 mysterious weird crisp glass crystal 2054 01:25:50,600 --> 01:25:48,570 skull whatever else you're going to find 2055 01:25:52,790 --> 01:25:50,610 you can find information about the most 2056 01:25:54,410 --> 01:25:52,800 famous crystal skull in the world which 2057 01:25:56,510 --> 01:25:54,420 is the mitchell-hedges so hedges yeah 2058 01:26:02,150 --> 01:25:56,520 and we don't know if we have time to go 2059 01:26:03,800 --> 01:26:02,160 into that whole story but it's well yeah 2060 01:26:06,860 --> 01:26:03,810 I don't know how much you want to get 2061 01:26:09,500 --> 01:26:06,870 into it just because it's a young I want 2062 01:26:11,240 --> 01:26:09,510 to say that I'm a little taken aback 2063 01:26:13,970 --> 01:26:11,250 that you weren't aware that I debunked 2064 01:26:19,010 --> 01:26:13,980 this whole thing that it was my digging 2065 01:26:22,970 --> 01:26:19,020 I found out about shot as through mutual 2066 01:26:26,240 --> 01:26:22,980 acquaintances I was able to contact him 2067 01:26:27,770 --> 01:26:26,250 and get the lowdown we played phone tag 2068 01:26:29,810 --> 01:26:27,780 a little bit he finally got ahold of me 2069 01:26:33,020 --> 01:26:29,820 I did an extensive interview with him 2070 01:26:35,479 --> 01:26:33,030 and I wrote an entire expose of the 2071 01:26:37,700 --> 01:26:35,489 skull for the crest on Eagle and this 2072 01:26:41,000 --> 01:26:37,710 was the last bit of writing that I did 2073 01:26:44,479 --> 01:26:41,010 for my first book so I literally delayed 2074 01:26:46,760 --> 01:26:44,489 turning in my manuscript prior to 2075 01:26:48,050 --> 01:26:46,770 finding shart shot as I had no choice I 2076 01:26:50,660 --> 01:26:48,060 had to have the book turned in like 2077 01:26:53,090 --> 01:26:50,670 within a matter of days and so I turned 2078 01:26:56,660 --> 01:26:53,100 in the book with this story left hanging 2079 01:26:58,220 --> 01:26:56,670 and then obviously once the I delivered 2080 01:27:00,229 --> 01:26:58,230 it to the manuscript to the publisher 2081 01:27:02,419 --> 01:27:00,239 two years before the book came out and 2082 01:27:03,979 --> 01:27:02,429 of course by then by the time I was able 2083 01:27:06,100 --> 01:27:03,989 to turn in the manuscript for my second 2084 01:27:09,020 --> 01:27:06,110 book I did a complete debunking of the 2085 01:27:11,510 --> 01:27:09,030 mysterious Crystal Skull I'm a little 2086 01:27:13,040 --> 01:27:11,520 saddened that you were not aware of that 2087 01:27:15,590 --> 01:27:13,050 or that she didn't put me as the author 2088 01:27:18,979 --> 01:27:15,600 of the article that finally finally blew 2089 01:27:21,380 --> 01:27:18,989 the lid off brad has read the Rocky 2090 01:27:23,510 --> 01:27:21,390 Mountain news article that came out they 2091 01:27:25,370 --> 01:27:23,520 came down and talked to Donna they were 2092 01:27:26,990 --> 01:27:25,380 doing conferences with this thing people 2093 01:27:28,520 --> 01:27:27,000 were coming from as far away as the east 2094 01:27:30,800 --> 01:27:28,530 coast to meditate with it 2095 01:27:31,130 --> 01:27:30,810 it really grew legs and started to get a 2096 01:27:32,600 --> 01:27:31,140 little 2097 01:27:35,930 --> 01:27:32,610 and that people coming all the way from 2098 01:27:41,930 --> 01:27:35,940 Minnesota to sit with it it became quite 2099 01:27:42,620 --> 01:27:41,940 a celebrated piece of New Age hardware 2100 01:27:44,360 --> 01:27:42,630 if you will 2101 01:27:46,610 --> 01:27:44,370 yeah well I mean let me just say I mean 2102 01:27:49,250 --> 01:27:46,620 I'm certainly for the record I apologize 2103 01:27:51,020 --> 01:27:49,260 if you feel slighted about about your 2104 01:27:53,030 --> 01:27:51,030 role in it so much slide I was just 2105 01:27:55,160 --> 01:27:53,040 surprised because I would figure that 2106 01:28:02,480 --> 01:27:55,170 you know you're a really good researcher 2107 01:28:05,630 --> 01:28:02,490 and the article I have a copy of it I 2108 01:28:07,460 --> 01:28:05,640 had I have a confidence somewhere it's 2109 01:28:10,520 --> 01:28:07,470 in the files but I think the real 2110 01:28:11,300 --> 01:28:10,530 problem honestly is that is that your 2111 01:28:13,070 --> 01:28:11,310 book 2112 01:28:15,590 --> 01:28:13,080 the mysterious valley which I read 2113 01:28:17,540 --> 01:28:15,600 thoroughly doesn't have any of this so I 2114 01:28:20,710 --> 01:28:17,550 mean you can certainly argue that I 2115 01:28:23,300 --> 01:28:20,720 missed the follow-ups but you know I 2116 01:28:26,240 --> 01:28:23,310 that was the main source that I had for 2117 01:28:29,000 --> 01:28:26,250 this right and so and so you know so 2118 01:28:30,710 --> 01:28:29,010 that was your book the main book that I 2119 01:28:35,930 --> 01:28:30,720 used as a source for this didn't have 2120 01:28:39,710 --> 01:28:35,940 all this follow up well I don't have all 2121 01:28:43,070 --> 01:28:39,720 your books I and I know again I'm 2122 01:28:45,350 --> 01:28:43,080 certainly a blog you have to vlog me 2123 01:28:49,700 --> 01:28:45,360 afterwards but but again I mean I mean 2124 01:28:51,830 --> 01:28:49,710 look I I can tell you this you know if 2125 01:28:53,570 --> 01:28:51,840 if that if mysterious the mysterious 2126 01:28:55,130 --> 01:28:53,580 Valley which again I've read through and 2127 01:28:57,500 --> 01:28:55,140 you know I have my shelf right there 2128 01:29:00,050 --> 01:28:57,510 it's it's you know

01:29:03,240 much more prominent role in it and so I 2132 01:29:07,280 --> 01:29:04,890 certainly did not in any way mean to 2133 01:29:09,320 --> 01:29:07,290 diminish your role in all this at all

2308 01:36:21,750 --> 01:36:19,460 think of Donna's property or the other 2309 01:36:24,220 --> 01:36:21,760 way around it's been 20 years here but 2310 01:36:27,370 --> 01:36:24,230 one thing that I found very intriguing 2311 01:36:28,810 --> 01:36:27,380 is is he we said how do you like these 2312 01:36:30,160 --> 01:36:28,820 weird-looking ones I said yeah and he 2313 01:36:32,830 -->

2316 01:36:40,240 --> 01:36:37,010 things all his rejects I got makes these 2317 01:36:42,250 --> 01:36:40,250 things today the Dead festival this is 2318 01:36:44,230 --> 01:36:42,260 this is great I'd love tell me tell me 2319 01:36:45,370 --> 01:36:44,240 more about the the how the whole what 2320 01:36:46,210 --> 01:36:45,380 the whole fallout was because that 2321 01:36:49,510 --> 01:36:46,220 because I don't I don't know that 2322 01:36:51,310 --> 01:36:49,520 obviously if I'd yeah Brad was really he 2323 01:36:54,160 --> 01:36:51,320 had given the skull to his parents as 2324 01:36:57,010 --> 01:36:54,170 like a lucky charm basically and and 2325 01:36:59,200 --> 01:36:57,020 they had decided to place it on the the 2326 01:37:01,330 --> 01:36:59,210 eastern corner of their ranch I think it 2327 01:37:03,640 --> 01:37:01,340 would have been the north eastern corner 2328 01:37:05,110 --> 01:37:03,650 Donna founded on the South the 2329 01:37:06,100 --> 01:37:05,120 southeastern corner of her property and 2330 01:37:07,629 --> 01:37:06,110 was right there at 2331 01:37:09,040 --> 01:37:07,639 that fence post let me ask you because 2332 01:37:11,229 --> 01:37:09,050 again there's two different versions 2333 01:37:13,720 --> 01:37:11,239 that I've had I heard that that Donna's 2334 01:37:15,760 --> 01:37:13,730 teenage ranch hand found it and brought 2335 01:37:16,990 --> 01:37:15,770 it to her you just said that she found 2336 01:37:18,970 --> 01:37:17,000 it do you know which one it is yeah the 2337 01:37:20,950 --> 01:37:18,980 story I got from Donna was that they 2338 01:37:23,649 --> 01:37:20,960 were out riding the fence line together 2339 01:37:26,260 --> 01:37:23,659 he saw the glint in the Sun she went 2340 01:37:28,570 --> 01:37:26,270 over and picked it up okay now now Brad 2341 01:37:30,189 --> 01:37:28,580 as you know he claimed and he told me I 2342 01:37:32,050 --> 01:37:30,199 assume he told you the same thing that 2343 01:37:34,629 --> 01:37:32,060 he'd actually left it not out in the 2344 01:37:36,399 --> 01:37:34,639 open but inside a Crown Royal bag yeah 2345 01:37:39,129 --> 01:37:36,409 yeah that's what he had told me to so 2346 01:37:43,140 --> 01:37:39,139 okay so so what how do we reconcile that 2347 01:37:51,310 --> 01:37:48,939 mean it was just enough showing that the 2348 01:37:53,740 --> 01:37:51,320 Sun glinted off of it right but look I 2349 01:37:55,479 --> 01:37:53,750 mean you can't you know the the the fact 2350 01:37:59,500 --> 01:37:55,489 that this thing if it wasn't he found 2351 01:38:02,020 --> 01:37:59,510 inside a coin Crown Royal bag sort of 2352 01:38:04,450 --> 01:38:02,030 diminishes its mystical significance I 2353 01:38:06,490 --> 01:38:04,460 mean oh yeah yeah exactly and in the 2354 01:38:09,490 --> 01:38:06,500 fact that that that's what a shot as 2355 01:38:11,260 --> 01:38:09,500 claims was that was the case really does 2356 01:38:15,669 --> 01:38:11,270 point the acrimony a ting finger at 2357 01:38:20,320 --> 01:38:15,679 Donna who who did she knew about this 2358 01:38:22,419 --> 01:38:20,330 for the entire time she wanted to for 2359 01:38:24,930 --> 01:38:22,429 some reason this kind of lust for 2360 01:38:27,189 --> 01:38:24,940 celebrity worthiness issues 2361 01:38:30,399 --> 01:38:27,199 psychologically I think that she had

I would say that that 2365 01:38:38,080 --> 01:38:36,290 would be a potential motivating factor 2366 01:38:40,450 --> 01:38:38,090 in her okay she loved all the the 2367 01:38:41,620 --> 01:38:40,460

01:41:10,530 to do with this it really I was other 2427 01:41:14,959 --> 01:41:12,390 people had taken me to task for even 2428 01:41:16,760 --> 01:41:14,969 publicizing this even though I debunked 2429 01:41:18,979 --> 01:41:16,770 it I was still getting dogged and and I 2430 01:41:22,220 --> 01:41:18,989 think you know there's some legitimate 2431 01:41:25,010 --> 01:41:22,230 justification I think I was when I first 2432 01:41:27,200 --> 01:41:25,020 started out a little bit less skeptical 2433 01:41:29,689 --> 01:41:27,210 than I am now not much less but a little 2434 01:41:31,400 --> 01:41:29,699 less than I am now I'm very skeptical 2435 01:41:33,400 --> 01:41:31,410 you like you been of 2436 01:41:35,960 --> 01:41:33,410 most of what's being palmed off is 2437 01:41:40,030 --> 01:41:35,970 fodder for the true believer crowd yeah 2438 01:41:43,310 --> 01:41:40,040 but I ended up giving all six skulls to 2439 01:41:45,380 --> 01:41:43,320 donna who ran a little crystal shop 2440 01:41:48,350 --> 01:41:45,390 just down the road from Donna 2441 01:41:50,360 --> 01:41:48,360 Koch and she ended up I don't know what 2442 01:41:51,740 --> 01:41:50,370 she did with them but probably sold for 2443 01:41:52,910 --> 01:41:51,750 two million dollars each yes she 2444 01:41:55,640 --> 01:41:52,920 probably sold them for quite a bit of 2445 01:41:57,710 --> 01:41:55,650 money uh does Donna still have hers you 2446 01:42:00,290 --> 01:41:57,720 know I don't know I never spoke with her 2447 01:42:02,630 --> 01:42:00,300 again after I debunked this I you know I 2448 01:42:04,760 --> 01:42:02,640 tried to call her once or twice and was 2449 01:42:06,110 --> 01:42:04,770 pretty much told hey Donna really 2450 01:42:07,730 --> 01:42:06,120 doesn't want to talk to you she's really 2451 01:42:09,050 --> 01:42:07,740 embarrassed blah blah blah blah blah and 2452 01:42:12,380 --> 01:42:09,060 it's like well sorry to rain on your 2453 01:42:14,060 --> 01:42:12,390

involved in all this it really kind of 2462 01:42:34,820 --> 01:42:32,100 rubbed me the wrong way to be honest 2463 01:42:36,410 --> 01:42:34,830 with you no I totally agree and and you 2464 01:42:38,630 --> 01:42:36,420 know I'll go through again I I don't 2465 01:42:40,250 --> 01:42:38,640 recall painting you as you know sort of 2466 01:42:42,470 --> 01:42:40,260 complicit in it I mean

there were some very 2475 01:43:08,150 --> 01:43:04,680 interesting coincidences our baby was uh 2476 01:43:11,240 --> 01:43:08,160 got sick almost immediately after being 2477 01:43:14,110 --> 01:43:11,250 uh allegedly after being around this 2478 01:43:16,880 --> 01:43:14,120 thing there were a number of interesting 2479 01:43:19,370 --> 01:43:16,890 synchronistic coincidences that did 2480 01:43:22,730 --> 01:43:19,380 occur around this thing and before I had 2481 01:43:24,950 --> 01:43:22,740 discovered its origins this was a little 2482 01:43:26,810 --> 01:43:24,960 bit impressive I must admit I was 2483 01:43:29,570 --> 01:43:26,820 impressed by some of the synchronicities 2484 01:43:31,820 --> 01:43:29,580 that were that were present around this 2485 01:43:33,860 --> 01:43:31,830 thing and it just it just made the 2486 01:43:36,500 --> 01:43:33,870 snowball head down that hill that much 2487 01:43:38,330 --> 01:43:36,510 faster really did and and and I'll give 2488 01:43:40,190 --> 01:43:38,340 you all credit for acknowledging that I 2489 01:43:42,440 --> 01:43:40,200 mean I seriously do a lot of people who 2490 01:43:44,299 --> 01:43:42,450 I've talked to you know even if I point 2491 01:43:46,040 --> 01:43:44,309 out to them say look you know 2492 01:43:48,049 --> 01:43:46,050 this is this is not you know it's the 2493 01:43:49,819 --> 01:43:48,059 the fallacy of post hoc ergo propter hoc 2494 01:43:51,469 --> 01:43:49,829 you know after therefore because of it 2495 01:43:53,179 --> 01:43:51,479 you think that you know these things are 2496 01:43:55,609 --> 01:43:53,189 connected it's a very human thing we all 2497 01:43:59,629 --> 01:43:55,619 do it this isn't talked about that in 2498 01:44:01,969 --> 01:43:59,639 the chapter it's not I that's a part of 2499 01:44:03,889 --> 01:44:01,979 human nature exactly and so so I mean to 2500 01:44:05,359 --> 01:44:03,899 be honest if I were your position I 2501 01:44:07,909 --> 01:44:05,369 might have done exactly the same thing 2502 01:44:08,929 --> 01:44:07,919 say wow this is weird because this thing 2503 01:44:12,379 --> 01:44:08,939 shows up and these things are happening 2504 01:44:15,290 --> 01:44:12,389 and you know we all do it and and I give 2505 01:44:16,639 --> 01:44:15,300 you credit for for recognizing that and 2506 01:44:18,979 --> 01:44:16,649 putting it out there so that's this 2507 01:44:20,569 --> 01:44:18,989 whole story is is just a fascinating you 2508 01:44:22,639 --> 01:44:20,579 know on so many levels in terms of you 2509 01:44:25,040 -->

just 2587 01:48:23,200 --> 01:48:21,320 like we've done with crystal skulls 2588 01:48:25,450 --> 01:48:23,210 which is why you'll notice that we only 2589 01:48:26,740 --> 01:48:25,460 have crystal

01:48:38,989 they won't come on the show 2596 01:48:44,109 --> 01:48:42,050 yeah I'm really interested in you know I 2597 01:48:46,300 --> 01:48:44,119 wasn't able to get all the way through 2598 01:48:48,910 --> 01:48:46,310 the book because I do know quite a bit 2599 01:48:50,649 --> 01:48:48,920 about the chaplet chimayo I figured I'd 2600 01:48:52,359 --> 01:48:50,659 save that one for last but let's talk 2601 01:48:54,790 --> 01:48:52,369 about that that is a very very 2602 01:48:56,169 --> 01:48:54,800 intriguing interest in place and it's 2603 01:48:57,399 --> 01:48:56,179 pretty impressive when you walk in there 2604 01:49:00,609 --> 01:48:57,409 and you see all the crutches and canes 2605 01:49:02,050 --> 01:49:00,619 and everything on the walls in the the 2606 01:49:03,640 --> 01:49:02,060 building there why don't you give our 2607 01:49:05,950 --> 01:49:03,650 listeners a quick thumbnail sketch about 2608 01:49:08,800 --> 01:49:05,960 the the legend of the miraculous mud of 2609 01:49:11,080 --> 01:49:08,810 Chimayo this is one of probably I would 2610 01:49:14,530 --> 01:49:11,090 guess probably the most most famous 2611 01:49:17,350 --> 01:49:14,540 healing site in New Mexico maybe in the 2612 01:49:20,080 --> 01:49:17,360 southwest and how you count it but yeah 2613 01:49:22,899 --> 01:49:20,090 it's it's a it's a chapel of Chimayo 2614 01:49:25,359 --> 01:49:22,909 it's a small town in northern New Mexico 2615 01:49:27,430 --> 01:49:25,369 not far from Santa Fe every year they 2616 01:49:29,439 --> 01:49:27,440 have on Good Friday they have pilgrims 2617 01:49:31,780 --> 01:49:29,449 go there and it's a very involved 2618 01:49:34,870 --> 01:49:31,790 process of people who you know they they 2619 01:49:36,399 --> 01:49:34,880 whip themselves the penitentes on their 2620 01:49:38,080 --> 01:49:36,409 way to do the bill the pilgrimage 2621 01:49:39,760 --> 01:49:38,090 they're on Good Friday and they reenact 2622 01:49:41,770 --> 01:49:39,770 of course the that the passion the 2623 01:49:45,330 --> 01:49:41,780 crucifixion in tens of thousands of 2624 01:49:49,510 --> 01:49:45,340 pilgrims visit the shrine of our Lord of 2625 01:49:51,669 --> 01:49:49,520 esquipulas we put a center I really to 2626 01:49:54,010 --> 01:49:51,679 my own it's a you know it's a beautiful 2627 01:49:55,839 --> 01:49:54,020 little place I've been been there 2628 01:49:57,569 --> 01:49:55,849 several times most recently of course 2629 01:50:00,029 --> 01:49:57,579 for my investigation 2630 01:50:02,250 --> 01:50:00,039 book and one of the one of the stories 2631 01:50:04,859 --> 01:50:02,260 behind it is that it has healing dirt 2632 01:50:06,770 --> 01:50:04,869 and there's a particular place there's I 2633 01:50:09,359 --> 01:50:06,780 should I should add there's there's many 2634 01:50:11,339 --> 01:50:09,369 legends and myths supernatural mist 2635 01:50:13,949 --> 01:50:11,349 surrounding it for example there's a 2636 01:50:16,290 --> 01:50:13,959 whole story about the six foot tall 2637 01:50:19,219 --> 01:50:16,300 cross that when it was originally found 2638 01:50:22,619 --> 01:50:19,229 on that site actually and it was it was 2639 01:50:24,599 --> 01:50:22,629 sometime around 1810 and the story goes 2640 01:50:26,549 --> 01:50:24,609 that people these people were in the 2641 01:50:30,149 --> 01:50:26,559 area and they uncovered this cross and 2642 01:50:32,579 --> 01:50:30,159 they moved it to another area a church 2643 01:50:34,500 --> 01:50:32,589 not far away and the next day it 2644 01:50:36,659 --> 01:50:34,510 appeared back where it was where it was 2645 01:50:38,429 --> 01:50:36,669 found and they they said well this is 2646 01:50:41,129 --> 01:50:38,439 this is bizarre and they moved it again 2647 01:50:42,509 --> 01:50:41,139 and once again overnight it reappeared 2648 01:50:44,759 --> 01:50:42,519 and they finally just said okay well 2649 01:50:46,259 --> 01:50:44,769 clearly this is meant to be here and so 2650 01:50:48,119 --> 01:50:46,269 they built that built the church at that 2651 01:50:49,679 --> 01:50:48,129 place because you know God directed them 2652 01:50:53,669 --> 01:50:49,689 to do that so there's there's a handful 2653 01:50:56,729 --> 01:50:53,679 of sort of interesting New Mexico flavor 2654 01:50:58,259 --> 01:50:56,739 legends about about chimayo but probably 2655 01:50:59,909 --> 01:50:58,269 the most famous one is regarding the 2656 01:51:02,909 --> 01:50:59,919 it's it's miracle dirt and there's a 2657 01:51:05,009 --> 01:51:02,919 there's a side room it's not much bigger 2658 01:51:07,770 --> 01:51:05,019 than you know medium sized closet maybe 2659 01:51:10,349 --> 01:51:07,780 a little bigger and has a there's that's 2660 01:51:13,379 --> 01:51:10,359 called a posse toe it's a small hole in 2661 01:51:16,979 --> 01:51:13,389 the ground and there's sand in it and 2662 01:51:19,739 --> 01:51:16,989 the story goes that sand was supposed to 2663 01:51:21,719 --> 01:51:19,749 stay in some dirt and the the claim is 2664 01:51:25,500 --> 01:51:21,729 that many people have been healed of 2665 01:51:25,889 --> 01:51:25,510 various ailments cancers other things 2666 01:51:28,709 --> 01:51:25,899 like that 2667 01:51:31,679 --> 01:51:28,719 through the miracle dirt and so I had 2668 01:51:33,779 --> 01:51:31,689 heard about this for for course many 2669 01:51:37,560 --> 01:51:33,789 years it's many traditions surrounding 2670 01:51:42,239 --> 01:51:37,570 it and I am I'd never actually done any 2671 01:51:45,569 --> 01:51:42,249 research at Chimayo per se until I was I 2672 01:51:47,609 --> 01:51:45,579 got a call from I did appearance on a 2673 01:51:50,189 --> 01:51:47,619 short-lived TV show on the Oprah network 2674 01:51:52,020 --> 01:51:50,199 called miracle detectives it was on for 2675 01:51:54,839 --> 01:51:52,030 I think a season or two and I was on one 2676 01:51:57,299 --> 01:51:54,849 of the episodes and a guy here in 2677 01:51:59,790 --> 01:51:57,309 Albuquerque Armando Cordoba saw me on 2678 01:52:02,609 --> 01:51:59,800 that TV show and he was investigating a 2679 01:52:04,889 --> 01:52:02,619 weeping icon of Jesus and in a shrine 2680 01:52:06,839 --> 01:52:04,899 outside of Cleveland and I was on there 2681 01:52:07,979 --> 01:52:06,849 and as one of the experts investigators 2682 01:52:10,079 --> 01:52:07,989 and he called me up I said you know I 2683 01:52:11,040 --> 01:52:10,089 saw you on on this miracle detectives TV 2684 01:52:13,770 --> 01:52:11,050 show 2685 01:52:15,030 --> 01:52:13,780 I was healed at chimayo would you you 2686 01:52:17,790 --> 01:52:15,040 know can you put me in touch with the 2687 01:52:20,399 --> 01:52:17,800 the TV producers and I said well I 2688 01:52:22,020 --> 01:52:20,409 actually can't partly because the show 2689 01:52:23,669 --> 01:52:22,030 it actually ended at that point if there 2690 01:52:25,200 --> 01:52:23,679 was there's no really nobody who put him 2691 01:52:27,299 --> 01:52:25,210 in touch with but I said but you know 2692 01:52:28,830 --> 01:52:27,309 I'm still I'm you know I'm fairly local 2693 01:52:31,470 --> 01:52:28,840 and it's I'd like to hear your story 2694 01:52:34,260 --> 01:52:31,480 investigate your story and so that's one 2695 01:52:37,049 --> 01:52:34,270 the one of the main one main sections in 2696 01:52:39,899 --> 01:52:37,059 my article on on chimayo do we have any 2697 01:52:41,520 --> 01:52:39,909 sort of numbers in terms of all those 2698 01:52:46,890 --> 01:52:41,530 that the cripples that are supposedly 2699 01:52:48,839 --> 01:52:46,900 now walking all those crutches I thought 2700 01:52:52,109 --> 01:52:48,849 one of the last photos in the chapter is 2701 01:52:54,270 --> 01:52:52,119 of there's a room as you as you exit 2702 01:52:56,399 --> 01:52:54,280 chimayo there's a room where there's 2703 01:52:58,649 --> 01:52:56,409 just lined with crutches on the walls 2704 01:53:02,580 --> 01:52:58,659 and of course the implication is that 2705 01:53:05,310 --> 01:53:02,590 people walked in limping presumably and 2706 01:53:06,930 --> 01:53:05,320 were healed at the at the at the site 2707 01:53:09,089 --> 01:53:06,940 presumably through the the miracle 2708 01:53:10,229 --> 01:53:09,099 diverted Chimayo and you know left their 2709 01:53:13,290 --> 01:53:10,239 crutches there because they didn't need 2710 01:53:15,569 --> 01:53:13,300 them anymore there's no hard numbers on 2711 01:53:17,280 --> 01:53:15,579 it there's no you know you don't you 2712 01:53:19,859 --> 01:53:17,290 don't need to sign in or anything 2713 01:53:22,439 --> 01:53:19,869 there's no there's no ID checks at 2714 01:53:24,479 --> 01:53:22,449 either end of the of the chapel so 2715 01:53:26,970 --> 01:53:24,489 there's really no way to know exactly 2716 01:53:29,189 --> 01:53:26,980 how many people have been claimed to 2717 01:53:31,770 --> 01:53:29,199 have been healed it's certainly hundreds 2718 01:53:33,899 --> 01:53:31,780 if not thousands over the years some 2719 01:53:35,490 --> 01:53:33,909 stories are more dramatic than others 2720 01:53:38,490 --> 01:53:35,500 there was actually a miracle detective 2721 01:53:41,160 --> 01:53:38,500 TV show about a woman named Desiree 2722 01:53:43,379 --> 01:53:41,170 Martinez and she's included in the in 2723 01:53:45,540 --> 01:53:43,389 the chapter they're talking about I 2724 01:53:51,510 --> 01:53:45,550 think she acts from Colorado for not 2725 01:53:53,700 --> 01:53:51,520 mistaken and she and in in 2011 they did 2726 01:53:55,560 --> 01:53:53,710 a show on that and she visited Chimayo 2727 01:53:58,229 --> 01:53:55,570 and she had been diagnosed with cancer 2728 01:54:00,450 --> 01:53:58,239 at the age of 15 and she believed that 2729 01:54:02,939 --> 01:54:00,460 the miracle dirt at Chimayo had had 2730 01:54:04,830 --> 01:54:02,949 healed her so she was she was one of the 2731 01:54:06,629 --> 01:54:04,840 cases I didn't personally investigate 2732 01:54:08,189 --> 01:54:06,639 her I sort of give the results of the 2733 01:54:10,470 --> 01:54:08,199 miracle detectives investigation and 2734 01:54:12,390 --> 01:54:10,480 then I go on to to the case that I 2735 01:54:15,390 --> 01:54:12,400 personally investigated of Armand de 2736 01:54:16,740 --> 01:54:15,400 Cordoba who claimed he money again he 2737 01:54:19,080 --> 01:54:16,750 came to me and he said look you know I 2738 01:54:20,490 --> 01:54:19,090 was healed by this you

2939 02:03:11,780 --> 02:03:09,840 self selected in that not that I know 2940 02:03:13,370 --> 02:03:11,790 they're you think that they're easy to 2941 02:03:14,900 --> 02:03:13,380 solve because many of the investigations 2942 02:03:17,090 --> 02:03:14,910 I tackle are very difficult to solve 2943 02:03:19,109 --> 02:03:17,100 Chupacabra being one case and others 2944 02:03:21,119 --> 02:03:19,119 that are you know in this new book 2945 02:03:22,649 --> 02:03:21,129 would say the the closest thing that I 2946 02:03:24,810 --> 02:03:22,659 can think of I mean there's certainly 2947 02:03:26,699 --> 02:03:24,820 been in cases for example in my book 2948 02:03:28,649 --> 02:03:26,709 scientific param vestigation I have a 2949 02:03:30,149 --> 02:03:28,659 have a chapter on a haunted house I 2950 02:03:33,270 --> 02:03:30,159 investigated outside the Buffalo New 2951 02:03:34,409 --> 02:03:33,280 York and that was a very complex case I 2952 02:03:36,989 --> 02:03:34,419 won't go into the whole thing here but 2953 02:03:39,989 --> 02:03:36,999 basically one of the main claims was 2954 02:03:41,729 --> 02:03:39,999 that the one of there was it was a 2955 02:03:43,529 --> 02:03:41,739 mother and a father and a young young 2956 02:03:46,290 --> 02:03:43,539 girl I think she was about six or seven 2957 02:03:48,270 --> 02:03:46,300 and he believed that a ghost had 2958 02:03:50,549 --> 02:03:48,280 actually attacked him it was it was 2959 02:03:51,899 --> 02:03:50,559 kicking him and I hadn't I interviewed 2960 02:03:53,819 --> 02:03:51,909 many people who seen ghosts and 2961 02:03:55,379 --> 02:03:53,829 experienced unusual things but he was 2962 02:03:57,509 --> 02:03:55,389 the very first person that I had ever 2963 02:04:00,540 --> 02:03:57,519 spoken to one to one who told me 2964 02:04:02,699 --> 02:04:00,550 flat-out he says a ghost attacked me so 2965 02:04:05,129 --> 02:04:02,709 that was kind of an unusual thing so you 2966 02:04:07,409 --> 02:04:05,139 know he ended up the in a nutshell he 2967 02:04:09,839 --> 02:04:07,419 claimed that a ghost was was kicking him 2968 02:04:12,419 --> 02:04:09,849 as he slept at night as he was going to 2969 02:04:13,739 --> 02:04:12,429 sleep and I ended up solving the case it 2970 02:04:15,389 --> 02:04:13,749 turned out to be that it was it was 2971 02:04:17,250 --> 02:04:15,399 actually restless leg syndrome he was 2972 02:04:19,500 --> 02:04:17,260 sleeping on it on us he was a big guy he 2973 02:04:21,089 --> 02:04:19,510 was the auto worker and he was sleeping 2974 02:04:23,669 --> 02:04:21,099 alone because he had sleep apnea and he 2975 02:04:25,709 --> 02:04:23,679 was on his own little cot bed and as he 2976 02:04:26,969 --> 02:04:25,719 was going to sleep his leg twitch and it 2977 02:04:29,100 --> 02:04:26,979 would wake him up and he interpreted 2978 02:04:30,689 --> 02:04:29,110 because he's a ghost in the house he 2979 02:04:32,069 --> 02:04:30,699 interpreted it as a ghost kicking him 2980 02:04:34,290 --> 02:04:32,079 and and he was too serious 2981 02:04:36,509 --> 02:04:34,300 it was not a joke he was dead serious 2982 02:04:37,729 --> 02:04:36,519 about this and well I I'm later but the 2983 02:04:39,810 --> 02:04:37,739 reason I bring this up is because 2984 02:04:42,089 --> 02:04:39,820 because there were lots of claims about 2985 02:04:43,830 --> 02:04:42,099 that case there were strange that was 2986 02:04:46,020 --> 02:04:43,840 the that was the the holdout that was 2987 02:04:48,000 --> 02:04:46,030 the one that I could not explain for 2988 02:04:50,189 --> 02:04:48,010 weeks I was like I can't figure this out 2989 02:04:52,080 --> 02:04:50,199 this is bizarre until I finally solved 2990 02:04:54,750 --> 02:04:52,090 it oh this is all fits together this is 2991 02:04:56,729 --> 02:04:54,760 what that was so you know is that so 2992 02:04:59,549 --> 02:04:56,739 there are certainly cases where parts of 2993 02:05:01,560 --> 02:04:59,559 a mystery are very difficult to solve 2994 02:05:04,379 --> 02:05:01,570 but in the end I've been able to solve 2995 02:05:05,819 --> 02:05:04,389 them I think that the the other real 2996 02:05:07,589 --> 02:05:05,829 question is you know if someone says 2997 02:05:09,419 --> 02:05:07,599 well is there anything you think can't 2998 02:05:11,100 --> 02:05:09,429 be explained by science and I'm 2999 02:05:13,049 --> 02:05:11,110 generally the position that pretty much 3000 02:05:15,810 --> 02:05:13,059 everything can be explained through 3001 02:05:16,500 --> 02:05:15,820 science if it's part of the natural 3002 02:05:19,589 --> 02:05:16,510 world 3003 02:05:21,750 --> 02:05:19,599 same thing with ghosts so you know I 3004 02:05:24,149 --> 02:05:21,760 would say the of everything in the world 3005 02:05:25,859 --> 02:05:24,159 I would say maybe intuition I think 3006 02:05:28,229 --> 02:05:25,869 maybe intuition might be the closest to 3007 02:05:30,270 --> 02:05:28,239 some sort of unusual paranormal and I 3008 02:05:32,560 --> 02:05:30,280 don't mean intuition in that some sort 3009 02:05:35,230 --> 02:05:32,570 of ESP or sixth sense but in a more 3010 02:05:36,940 --> 02:05:35,240 psychological realm in which we're 3011 02:05:38,620 --> 02:05:36,950 talking about something where we know 3012 02:05:40,450 --> 02:05:38,630 something without knowing how we know it 3013 02:05:42,160 --> 02:05:40,460 and we're picking up cues from the right 3014 02:05:43,150 --> 02:05:42,170 or the feeling of somebody's staring at 3015 02:05:44,950 --> 02:05:43,160 you and then you turn around and 3016 02:05:46,060 --> 02:05:44,960 somebody is there now yeah right exactly 3017 02:05:49,060 --> 02:05:46,070 so and then you sort of get into 3018 02:05:51,580 --> 02:05:49,070 confirmation bias yeah well yeah that's 3019 02:05:55,060 --> 02:05:51,590 a bad example but we're thinking about 3020 02:05:56,920 --> 02:05:55,070 somebody really hard and then they call 3021 02:05:57,640 --> 02:05:56,930 you on the phone if it's not a 3022 02:05:59,470 --> 02:05:57,650 coincidence 3023 02:06:01,300 --> 02:05:59,480 there may be something there well here's 3024 02:06:03,460 --> 02:06:01,310 another question this really kind of 3025 02:06:06,550 --> 02:06:03,470 gets to the heart of why people with 3026 02:06:09,010 --> 02:06:06,560 open minds that that really enjoy these 3027 02:06:10,810 --> 02:06:09,020 paranormal subjects are can get really 3028 02:06:12,580 --> 02:06:10,820 bent out of shape at at the tone 3029 02:06:14,860 --> 02:06:12,590 sometimes that the skeptical community 3030 02:06:17,800 --> 02:06:14,870 uses and Byrne state wants to know if 3031 02:06:20,050 --> 02:06:17,810 you think that skepticism can become too 3032 02:06:22,120 --> 02:06:20,060 rabid as seen in the absolute relish it 3033 02:06:23,800 --> 02:06:22,130 seems to take and mocking anyone who 3034 02:06:25,690 --> 02:06:23,810 takes the UFO phenomenon seriously 3035 02:06:27,520 --> 02:06:25,700 including those who wish to apply 3036 02:06:29,440 --> 02:06:27,530 science to the problem and he gives the 3037 02:06:31,510 --> 02:06:29,450 example of Philip Glass persistently 3038 02:06:34,060 --> 02:06:31,520 hounding and harassing dr. James 3039 02:06:36,550 --> 02:06:34,070 McDonald and he says such activities 3040 02:06:38,770 --> 02:06:36,560 appear to continue to this day in the 3041 02:06:41,410 --> 02:06:38,780 sarcastic tone that your skeptical 3042 02:06:44,170 --> 02:06:41,420 Inquirer applies to all things UFO in 3043 02:06:45,340 --> 02:06:44,180 nature is this a healthy approach and is 3044 02:06:48,130 --> 02:06:45,350 it consistent with choose these 3045 02:06:50,260 --> 02:06:48,140 foundational principles and is etic 3046 02:06:51,730 --> 02:06:50,270 approach to unique phenomenon good 3047 02:06:53,760 --> 02:06:51,740 question yeah that is a good question 3048 02:06:57,670 --> 02:06:53,770 that there's there's a little bit of a 3049 02:07:00,010 --> 02:06:57,680 faulty premise there in that there's not 3050 02:07:02,140 --> 02:07:00,020 a monolithic homogenous skeptical 3051 02:07:04,360 --> 02:07:02,150 community there just isn't it just as 3052 02:07:07,540 --> 02:07:04,370 there's not one monolithic homogenous 3053 02:07:09,310 --> 02:07:07,550 paranormal community or UFO believer 3054 02:07:10,570 --> 02:07:09,320 commune wherever else there's all sorts 3055 02:07:12,460 --> 02:07:10,580 of different people there are people who 3056 02:07:14,650 --> 02:07:12,470 are you know hardcore believers that 3057 02:07:16,420 --> 02:07:14,660 alien abducted abductions are happening 3058 02:07:18,340 --> 02:07:16,430 every second of every day other people 3059 02:07:19,630 --> 02:07:18,350 who think that a lot of it's you know BS 3060 02:07:21,820 --> 02:07:19,640 but there are a couple things that are 3061 02:07:24,160 --> 02:07:21,830 true they stick their belief on the you 3062 02:07:26,260 --> 02:07:24,170 know Betty Barney Hills case we're out 3063 02:07:29,200 --> 02:07:26,270 and so it's a little bit of a fallacy to 3064 02:07:30,910 --> 02:07:29,210 say that skeptics are X because epics 3065 02:07:32,980 --> 02:07:30,920 are not X that you will always have 3066 02:07:35,230 --> 02:07:32,990 individual skeptics within any community 3067 02:07:37,750 --> 02:07:35,240 just as you have individual believers or 3068 02:07:40,450 --> 02:07:37,760 you know take your pick anything else 3069 02:07:41,980 --> 02:07:40,460 engineers take you know lawyers there 3070 02:07:43,450 --> 02:07:41,990 are good lawyers and their shyster 3071 02:07:45,670 --> 02:07:43,460 lawyers there are good doctors and their 3072 02:07:46,330 --> 02:07:45,680 shyster doctors they're not all out you 3073 02:07:48,070 --> 02:07:46,340 know are you 3074 02:07:49,600 --> 02:07:48,080 are you being an apologist for the ones 3075 02:07:51,129 --> 02:07:49,610 that are too rabid or are you saying 3076 02:07:52,540 --> 02:07:51,139 that they're out of line I know I'm 3077 02:07:56,200 --> 02:07:52,550 saying that they're out of line I'm 3078 02:07:58,600 --> 02:07:56,210 saying that okay yeah could really get 3079 02:08:00,580 --> 02:07:58,610 out of line well you really I'll give an 3080 02:08:02,169 --> 02:08:00,590 example in one of my favorite books of 3081 02:08:03,700 --> 02:08:02,179 all time there's written by Carl Sagan 3082 02:08:06,339 --> 02:08:03,710 and he wrote a book called the demon 3083 02:08:09,070 --> 02:08:06,349 haunted world yeah it's a brilliant book 3084 02:08:10,600 --> 02:08:09,080 and I revere Carl sake and I met him 3085 02:08:13,750 --> 02:08:10,610 briefly and he was just a wonderful 3086 02:08:15,580 --> 02:08:13,760 generous man and in that book if you 3087 02:08:18,700 --> 02:08:15,590 read it he actually calls out James 3088 02:08:20,770 --> 02:08:18,710 Randi another one of my heroes who you 3089 02:08:22,479 --> 02:08:20,780 know he has his faults and in in Carl 3090 02:08:25,689 --> 02:08:22,489 Sagan's book is as you know Randy can be 3091 02:08:27,820 --> 02:08:25,699 abrasive he can be rude I don't remember 3092 02:08:30,250 --> 02:08:27,830 the exact quote but he he says look you 3093 02:08:32,770 --> 02:08:30,260 know this is this isn't helpful so I 3094 02:08:33,910 --> 02:08:32,780 guess the the real issue is that in any 3095 02:08:35,589 --> 02:08:33,920 community you're gonna have people who 3096 02:08:36,910 --> 02:08:35,599 are more open-minded about in other 3097 02:08:39,310 --> 02:08:36,920 people who are more debunking and so you 3098 02:08:40,839 --> 02:08:39,320 have people like so for example you have 3099 02:08:44,080 --> 02:08:40,849 Penn & Teller's show called 3100 02:08:47,680 --> 02:08:44,090 well BS that's the name of the show and 3101 02:08:49,570 --> 02:08:47,690 in that in their show they you know they 3102 02:08:52,330 --> 02:08:49,580 they tackle all sorts of paranormal you 3103 02:08:54,669 --> 02:08:52,340 know everything from UFO claims to the 3104 02:08:56,260 --> 02:08:54,679 homeopathy this that any other and their 3105 02:08:58,510 --> 02:08:56,270 style is very different from mine I 3106 02:08:59,950 --> 02:08:58,520 that's that's their thing that's that's 3107 02:09:02,020 --> 02:08:59,960 fine same thing with the South Park guys 3108 02:09:04,689 --> 02:09:02,030 they make fun of all sorts of things 3109 02:09:07,149 --> 02:09:04,699 that I don't make fun of because I part 3110 02:09:08,560 --> 02:09:07,159 of the way that I personally do it is I 3111 02:09:12,040 --> 02:09:08,570 have a have a background in psychology 3112 02:09:13,839 --> 02:09:12,050 and and I I am very sympathetic to 3113 02:09:15,430 --> 02:09:13,849 people who claim to have experiences or 3114 02:09:17,169 --> 02:09:15,440 they sit they think they saw a ghost 3115 02:09:19,390 --> 02:09:17,179 they think it's a lake monster UFO where 3116 02:09:21,790 --> 02:09:19,400 else and my assumption is not that 3117 02:09:23,530 --> 02:09:21,800 they're lying to me my assumption and my 3118 02:09:25,810 --> 02:09:23,540 experience is that most people who claim 3119 02:09:27,850 --> 02:09:25,820 to have these experiences are sincere 3120 02:09:29,620 --> 02:09:27,860 they're they're not crazy they're not 3121 02:09:31,540 --> 02:09:29,630 stupid they're not bad people they've 3122 02:09:33,700 --> 02:09:31,550 truly had some experience they can't 3123 02:09:35,560 --> 02:09:33,710 explain and what I try to do as 3124 02:09:37,750 --> 02:09:35,570 investigators figure out what is that 3125 02:09:39,879 --> 02:09:37,760 experience if that experience truly is a 3126 02:09:42,040 --> 02:09:39,889 ghost if that experience truly is 3127 02:09:43,750 --> 02:09:42,050 psychic powers or

02:17:16,940 --> 02:17:14,729 building bridges between skeptics and 3308 02:17:18,799 --> 02:17:16,950 ufologists is a bit of a pipe dream do 3309 02:17:20,660 --> 02:17:18,809 you feel that the gap

I've I'll give you an 3326 02:17:57,020 --> 02:17:55,649 example I was a couple years back I was 3327 02:17:59,000 --> 02:17:57,030 talking at a Bigfoot conference in 3328 02:18:00,919 --> 02:17:59,010 Pocatello Idaho I was there with Jeff 3329 02:18:02,690 --> 02:18:00,929 Meldrum and couple others and I was the 3330 02:18:04,219 --> 02:18:02,700 token skeptic and you know that's fine 3331 02:18:05,959 --> 02:18:04,229 whatever I you know most people there 3332 02:18:07,820 --> 02:18:05,969 believed in Bigfoot or had experiences I 3333 02:18:09,679 --> 02:18:07,830 was the guy who was saying look you know 3334 02:18:11,959 --> 02:18:09,689 I think there's reasons to doubt Bigfoot 3335 02:18:14,000 --> 02:18:11,969 I'm addressing the audience of probably 3336 02:18:15,530 --> 02:18:14,010 you know two three hundred people and I 3337 02:18:18,110 --> 02:18:15,540 said look you know I'm not the enemy 3338 02:18:20,330 --> 02:18:18,120 here you know yes I'm trying to bring a 3339 02:18:22,160 --> 02:18:20,340 skeptical point of view to this but I 3340 02:18:23,480 --> 02:18:22,170 said I'm not making fun of you there's 3341 02:18:25,310 --> 02:18:23,490 lots of people out there in the real 3342 02:18:27,020 --> 02:18:25,320 world you know walking down the streets 3343 02:18:28,730 --> 02:18:27,030 who think you guys are crazy is it I I 3344 02:18:30,589 --> 02:18:28,740 will take you seriously I will look at 3345 02:18:32,450 --> 02:18:30,599 your evidence you have big photos you 3346 02:18:35,330 --> 02:18:32,460 have Bigfoot evidence I will look at it 3347 02:18:37,429 --> 02:18:35,340 with an open mind and I said you need to 3348 02:18:39,799 --> 02:18:37,439 understand that that that that building 3349 02:18:41,990 --> 02:18:39,809 bridges to skepticism in - open - 3350 02:18:44,450 --> 02:18:42,000 skeptics is for everyone's benefit and 3351 02:18:45,650 --> 02:18:44,460 so when I talk to Bigfoot believers you 3352 02:18:47,240 --> 02:18:45,660 know when I when I talk to Bigfoot 3353 02:18:49,700 --> 02:18:47,250 community and the ghost hunter community 3354 02:18:51,230 --> 02:18:49,710 and I write a books like like scientific 3355 02:18:53,929 --> 02:18:51,240 para investigation from a couple years 3356 02:18:56,419 --> 02:18:53,939 ago my goal is to bring good science and 3357 02:18:58,280 --> 02:18:56,429 good critical thinking and skepticism to 3358 02:19:00,259 --> 02:18:58,290 the investigation it's not to quash and 3359 02:19:02,179 --> 02:19:00,269 debunk it's not - it's not to sort of 3360 02:19:04,040 --> 02:19:02,189 say all this is too silly no it's 3361 02:19:05,870 --> 02:19:04,050 exactly the opposite saying these are 3362 02:19:08,959 --> 02:19:05,880 fascinating subjects crystal 3363 02:19:09,860 --> 02:19:08,969 skulls UFOs crop circles you know go so 3364 02:19:11,959 --> 02:19:09,870 all these things are really cool 3365 02:19:13,520 --> 02:19:11,969 interest to you and whatever if you're 3366 02:19:15,799 --> 02:19:13,530 gonna reach for scientific credibility 3367 02:19:17,330 --> 02:19:15,809 then you have to use good science you 3368 02:19:19,100 --> 02:19:17,340 have to and this is this is sort of 3369 02:19:21,830 --> 02:19:19,110 thing that that ice I try to do with my 3370 02:19:24,230 --> 02:19:21,840 work is not just sort of debunk and 3371 02:19:26,929 --> 02:19:24,240 dismiss and you know be rude to people I 3372 02:19:28,759 --> 02:19:26,939 you know I actually this were touching 3373 02:19:30,709 --> 02:19:28,769 back on the previous question but you 3374 02:19:32,389 --> 02:19:30,719 know among many skeptics and even many 3375 02:19:34,339 --> 02:19:32,399 believers I'm known as a pretty 3376 02:19:36,500 --> 02:19:34,349 open-minded guy I mean there are more 3377 02:19:38,089 --> 02:19:36,510 abrasive skeptics I'm I'm the guy who's 3378 02:19:39,560 --> 02:19:38,099 like yeah I'll look at this let's you 3379 02:19:42,799 --> 02:19:39,570 know let's let's work this out and so 3380 02:19:45,020 --> 02:19:42,809 you know I would hope that that that you 3381 02:19:46,879 --> 02:19:45,030 know the in the future there could be 3382 02:19:49,520 --> 02:19:46,889 many more bridges between the skeptics 3383 02:19:52,429 --> 02:19:49,530 and believers my concern is that a lot 3384 02:19:54,530 --> 02:19:52,439 of times we're using different standards 3385 02:19:56,540 --> 02:19:54,540 of evidence you know I've had people who 3386 02:19:58,790 --> 02:19:56,550 will say to me you know what I saw a UFO 3387 02:20:00,560 --> 02:19:58,800 and you can't talk me out of it where do 3388 02:20:01,580 --> 02:20:00,570 I go with that whose I'm not trying to 3389 02:20:03,710 --> 02:20:01,590 talk you out of it I'm just trying to 3390 02:20:05,780 --> 02:20:03,720 stand what you saw but but if someone's 3391 02:20:08,270 --> 02:20:05,790 gonna come to me with that position that 3392 02:20:11,330 --> 02:20:08,280 they know for a fact what they saw and 3393 02:20:13,010 --> 02:20:11,340 it was the UFO and then who's being 3394 02:20:14,719 --> 02:20:13,020 hostile here I'm not being hostile I'm 3395 02:20:16,520 --> 02:20:14,729 just saying you know give me evidence in 3396 02:20:18,020 --> 02:20:16,530 there so we're operating on different 3397 02:20:20,060 --> 02:20:18,030 standards evidence so I think one of 3398 02:20:22,370 --> 02:20:20,070 them one of the important platforms that 3399 02:20:24,139 --> 02:20:22,380 you could use to build that bridge is 3400 02:20:26,860 --> 02:20:24,149 trying to come to some consensus about 3401 02:20:29,450 --> 02:20:26,870 what constitutes evidence yeah exactly 3402 02:20:31,250 --> 02:20:29,460 you got to have that established before 3403 02:20:33,020 --> 02:20:31,260 you can even begin to have a dialogue 3404 02:20:36,590 --> 02:20:33,030 exactly specially with with it with a 3405 02:20:39,469 --> 02:20:36,600 scientist you know it's there's a lot of 3406 02:20:41,450 --> 02:20:39,479 ignorance in the true believer crowd out 3407 02:20:45,320 --> 02:20:41,460 there there's a lot of misperceptions 3408 02:20:47,870 --> 02:20:45,330 a lot of lazy intellectual or lazy lack 3409 02:20:51,050 --> 02:20:47,880 of intellectual rigor people like to get 3410 02:20:54,650 --> 02:20:51,060 their their all their facts from you 3411 02:20:57,200 --> 02:20:54,660 know History Channel or HD some of these 3412 02:20:58,370 --> 02:20:57,210 really bizarre shows that are on but you 3413 02:20:59,690 --> 02:20:58,380 know you mentioned you spoke at a 3414 02:21:01,910 --> 02:20:59,700 Bigfoot conference we have a couple of 3415 02:21:02,660 --> 02:21:01,920 questions here that wonder where you 3416 02:21:05,240 --> 02:21:02,670 come down 3417 02:21:09,020 --> 02:21:05,250 vesti high folk has been a post of it 3418 02:21:11,179 --> 02:21:09,030 form dr. Peric ascom since 2010 he's up 3419 02:21:13,400 --> 02:21:11,189 at the 1500 mark and he wonders is there 3420 02:21:15,620 --> 02:21:13,410 any evidence for the existence of 3421 02:21:17,870 --> 02:21:15,630 Bigfoot and he says with most stupas 3422 02:21:20,050 --> 02:21:17,880 being found to be dogs of mange can we 3423 02:21:22,029 --> 02:21:20,060 ride off the troopas being a real 3424 02:21:23,889 --> 02:21:22,039 let's look at Bigfoot first I the 3425 02:21:27,130 --> 02:21:23,899 trooper question is pretty obvious if 3426 02:21:28,779 --> 02:21:27,140 you've read Ben's book but what about 3427 02:21:30,670 --> 02:21:28,789 Bigfoot do you think there's any 3428 02:21:33,760 --> 02:21:30,680 evidence that that's out there 3429 02:21:35,920 --> 02:21:33,770 well that's anecdotal yeah I mean and 3430 02:21:38,559 --> 02:21:35,930 I've written about this before and you 3431 02:21:40,599 --> 02:21:38,569 know my my position is not that Bigfoot 3432 02:21:41,979 --> 02:21:40,609 cannot exist I've had people say oh you 3433 02:21:44,979 --> 02:21:41,989 know I saw you're going to be you said 3434 02:21:47,500 --> 02:21:44,989 Bigfoot designs this and like no I have 3435 02:21:49,569 --> 02:21:47,510 never said Bigfoot design exist you are 3436 02:21:51,010 --> 02:21:49,579 incorrect science seemed ago oh you said 3437 02:21:52,989 --> 02:21:51,020 ghosts no I've never said ghosts don't 3438 02:21:55,630 --> 02:21:52,999 exist that's not a scientific position 3439 02:21:57,939 --> 02:21:55,640 all you can say is that the evidence 3440 02:22:01,059 --> 02:21:57,949 offered so far in my experience in my 3441 02:22:02,889 --> 02:22:01,069 research is either that the evidence you 3442 02:22:05,649 --> 02:22:02,899 know supports the position that Bigfoot 3443 02:22:07,929 --> 02:22:05,659 is likely out there or not and in my 3444 02:22:10,029 --> 02:22:07,939 experience in my research which is being 3445 02:22:12,670 --> 02:22:10,039 on quite a while now I don't see 3446 02:22:14,080 --> 02:22:12,680 compelling scientific evidence that a 3447 02:22:15,189 --> 02:22:14,090 group of Bigfoot remember we're not just 3448 02:22:17,260 --> 02:22:15,199 talking about one creature 3449 02:22:18,609 --> 02:22:17,270 same with Loch Ness major breeding 3450 02:22:21,159 --> 02:22:18,619 population breeding pipe so we're 3451 02:22:23,260 --> 02:22:21,169 talking by some estimates six to ten 3452 02:22:26,109 --> 02:22:23,270 thousand Bigfoot in North America alone 3453 02:22:28,000 --> 02:22:26,119 six to ten thousand of them and the fact 3454 02:22:29,380 --> 02:22:28,010 is that at some point you know they 3455 02:22:31,210 --> 02:22:29,390 should be hit by a car they should die 3456 02:22:34,029 --> 02:22:31,220 of natural causes a hiker should find 3457 02:22:36,099 --> 02:22:34,039 one it's just it is so implausible that 3458 02:22:37,449 --> 02:22:36,109 the these populations of Bigfoot are out 3459 02:22:39,670 --> 02:22:37,459 there particularly North America and 3460 02:22:41,739 --> 02:22:39,680 simply not being found and and I would 3461 02:22:44,290 --> 02:22:41,749 say probably even actually earlier this 3462 02:22:45,760 --> 02:22:44,300 year and none other guys you guys mean 3463 02:22:48,210 --> 02:22:45,770 you mentioned it in a previous show but 3464 02:22:50,889 --> 02:22:48,220 there was some very strong evidence 3465 02:22:52,899 --> 02:22:50,899 about the existence of Bigfoot done by 3466 02:22:55,210 --> 02:22:52,909 Brian Sykes he's an Oxford net assist 3467 02:22:57,210 --> 02:22:55,220 and he did a study who came out I think 3468 02:23:00,159 --> 02:22:57,220 about about a month and a half ago yeah 3469 02:23:02,460 --> 02:23:00,169 you're very recent and he did in a very 3470 02:23:05,409 --> 02:23:02,470 good DNA testing genetic testing of 3471 02:23:08,349 --> 02:23:05,419 alleged bigfoot and yetis throughout the 3472 02:23:10,359 --> 02:23:08,359 world and every single one of them came 3473 02:23:16,000 --> 02:23:10,369 down to a known animal somewhere else 3474 02:23:18,250 --> 02:23:16,010 and he found the hair the one was the 3475 02:23:20,889 --> 02:23:18,260 hair of what he thought was an extinct 3476 02:23:23,019 --> 02:23:20,899 form of polar bear that hasn't been seen 3477 02:23:24,460 --> 02:23:23,029 in the old has been in the Himalayas for 3478 02:23:28,840 --> 02:23:24,470 thousands of years yet that's what the 3479 02:23:32,791 --> 02:23:28,850 genetic sample results were of a extinct 3480 02:23:35,071 --> 02:23:32,801 polar bear well find it this is the 3481 02:23:37,501 --> 02:23:35,081 part is it was identified as a polar 3482 02:23:39,691 --> 02:23:37,511 bear yeah so so right so but that's 3483 02:23:41,850 --> 02:23:39,701 that's my point is that not a single one 3484 02:23:44,041 --> 02:23:41,860 of these hundreds of samples turned out 3485 02:23:46,261 --> 02:23:44,051 to be and by the way that was also in 3486 02:23:47,881 --> 02:23:46,271 Nepal if I'm not mistaken the Himalayas 3487 02:23:49,651 --> 02:23:47,891 so this was not this was that actually 3488 02:23:52,140 --> 02:23:49,661 Bigfoot the Bigfoot is specifically in 3489 02:23:54,631 --> 02:23:52,150 North America that would be a Yeti err 3490 02:23:56,640 --> 02:23:54,641 in honesty but but yeah but my point is 3491 02:23:59,821 --> 02:23:56,650 that is that you know you have pretty 3492 02:24:01,680 --> 02:23:59,831 much ironclad genetics data that shows 3493 02:24:03,841 --> 02:24:01,690 that case after case after case after 3494 02:24:07,111 --> 02:24:03,851 case of what is believed or claim to 3495 02:24:09,751 --> 02:24:07,121 Bigfoot hair turns out it's not you know 3496 02:24:11,191 --> 02:24:09,761 we're gonna have a hairy time here I'm 3497 02:24:15,060 --> 02:24:11,201 sorry about that 3498 02:24:17,671 --> 02:24:15,070 this is the episode of puns it's 3499 02:24:19,531 --> 02:24:17,681 terrible mysterious New Mexico no puns 3500 02:24:27,331 --> 02:24:19,541 Ben Radford joining gene and Chris 3501 02:24:30,301 --> 02:24:27,341 you're in the para cast free from the 3502 02:24:37,201 --> 02:24:30,311

officer is haunted 3508 02:24:51,271 --> 02:24:48,820 by intense dreams about a beautiful 3509 02:24:54,421 --> 02:24:51,281 woman pleading for his help after a 3510 02:24:56,521 --> 02:24:54,431 terrible battle in outer space but the 3511 02:24:58,411 --> 02:24:56,531 dreams turn out to be true and thrust 3512 02:25:01,441 --> 02:24:58,421 him into a telepathic love affair with a 3513

named Bobby Darnell who was killed and 3714 02:33:14,640 --> 02:33:12,250 he actually was killed I mean that's 3715 02:33:17,341 --> 02:33:14,650 part of the historical record in 1952 3716 02:33:19,801 --> 02:33:17,351 people claimed of it to this day that 3717 02:33:22,140 --> 02:33:19,811 that his his ghost haunts the theater 3718 02:33:23,701 --> 02:33:22,150 and people people who give productions 3719 02:33:25,770 --> 02:33:23,711 there and plays there will leave donuts 3720 02:33:27,990 --> 02:33:25,780 as sort of an appeasement for the ghosts 3721 02:33:30,121 --> 02:33:28,000 and it was if is a really interesting 3722 02:33:31,711 --> 02:33:30,131 story just for me personally because it 3723 02:33:34,411 --> 02:33:31,721 was so well known throughout Albuquerque 3724 02:33:37,650 --> 02:33:34,421 but nobody had actually solved the case 3725 02:33:40,081 --> 02:33:37,660 until my myself in the Co investigating 3726 02:33:41,940 --> 02:33:40,091 and Mike Smith I had done research on 3727 02:33:44,100 --> 02:33:41,950 that and so we ended up solving the case 3728 02:33:49,020 --> 02:33:44,110 it was a fascinating sort of collection 3729 02:33:50,850 --> 02:33:49,030 of ghost stories and folklore and and in 3730 02:33:52,350 --> 02:33:50,860 misinformation from ghost hunters and 3731 02:33:54,301 --> 02:33:52,360 this and that so there was that was a 3732 02:33:57,541 --> 02:33:54,311 really fun story and that was actually 3733 02:34:00,570 --> 02:33:57,551 appeared as in 14 times magazine if 3734 02:34:02,911 --> 02:34:00,580 we're not mistaken so guys the Chimayo 3735 02:34:05,220 --> 02:34:02,921 the sound of a courthouse ghost some of 3736 02:34:07,350 --> 02:34:05,230 you may know that that case I 3737 02:34:08,791 --> 02:34:07,360 investigated was actually on CNN there's 3738 02:34:10,261 --> 02:34:08,801 that there's a Wikipedia page I didn't 3739 02:34:12,270 --> 02:34:10,271 make it but there's a Wikipedia page on 3740 02:34:14,100 --> 02:34:12,280 that the Santa Fe courthouse ghost and 3741 02:34:16,020 --> 02:34:14,110 explains there was this mysterious 3742 02:34:19,350 --> 02:34:16,030 ghostly figure in this surveillance 3743 02:34:23,011 --> 02:34:19,360 camera in Santa Fe about I think about 3744 02:34:24,860 --> 02:34:23,021 89 years ago now and I went and 3745 02:34:27,900 --> 02:34:24,870 investigated it and solved that mystery 3746 02:34:30,030 --> 02:34:27,910 there's Loretta slow chapels Monroe Gap 3747 02:34:32,730 --> 02:34:30,040 miraculous staircase it's a double 3748 02:34:35,220 --> 02:34:32,740 spiral staircase but according to some 3749 02:34:36,211 --> 02:34:35,230 people engineers and scientists say 3750 02:34:38,850 --> 02:34:36,221 should 3751 02:34:41,491 --> 02:34:38,860 exist it cannot exist it's it's a it's a 3752 02:34:43,831 --> 02:34:41,501 structural impossibility and there's a 3753 02:34:45,451 --> 02:34:43,841 whole lore behind that about hey you 3754 02:34:47,881 --> 02:34:45,461 know I got a little inside dope on this 3755 02:34:50,430 --> 02:34:47,891 so oh yeah a friend of mine his neighbor 3756 02:34:53,251 --> 02:34:50,440 moved into bought the property next door 3757 02:34:54,991 --> 02:34:53,261 and he was cleaning out an outbuilding 3758 02:34:56,821 --> 02:34:55,001 and he opened up a trunk and found the 3759 02:34:59,701 --> 02:34:56,831 actual architectural designs for that 3760 02:35:05,781 --> 02:34:59,711 staircase Shh don't tell anybody no way 3761 02:35:09,571 --> 02:35:08,191 architect and he went down there and he 3762 02:35:11,671 --> 02:35:09,581 was scratching his head he said man 3763 02:35:15,121 --> 02:35:11,681 whoever did this that they are very 3764 02:35:17,281 --> 02:35:15,131 talented no absolutely I mean your dad 3765 02:35:20,100 --> 02:35:17,291 was exactly right it's just that the 3766 02:35:23,251 --> 02:35:20,110 question is was it st. Joseph or was it 3767 02:35:29,220 --> 02:35:23,261 someone else no dude that showed up and 3768 02:35:31,861 --> 02:35:29,230 said so the miraculous staircase we have 3769 02:35:34,201 --> 02:35:31,871 I have a section on cryptozoologist I 3770 02:35:37,591 --> 02:35:34,211 have a section on Thunderbirds the giant 3771 02:35:41,341 --> 02:35:37,601 perhaps dinosaur like pterodactyl 3772 02:35:44,671 --> 02:35:41,351 dinosaurs in the sky a investigation I 3773 02:35:46,441 --> 02:35:44,681 did into a haunted bar near action north 3774 02:35:48,571 --> 02:35:46,451 of Las Cruces New Mexico 3775 02:35:50,631 --> 02:35:48,581 oh ho calientes healing waters 3776 02:35:52,770 --> 02:35:50,641 labyrinths I have a whole chapter on 3777 02:35:56,100 --> 02:35:52,780 some of the miraculous stories about 3778 02:35:58,230 --> 02:35:56,110 healing labyrinths light Rona Santa Fe's 3779 02:36:00,631 --> 02:35:58,240 haunted La Posada hotel which is one of 3780 02:36:03,781 --> 02:36:00,641 the more famous haunted places in Santa 3781 02:36:06,421 --> 02:36:03,791 Fe and chapter 12 is sort of an outlier 3782 02:36:07,861 --> 02:36:06,431 it's about it's a true case of a serial 3783 02:36:10,381 --> 02:36:07,871 killer I had previously written about a 3784 02:36:13,980 --> 02:36:10,391 serial killer for my book scientific 3785 02:36:16,230 --> 02:36:13,990 investigation but there was a actually 3786 02:36:19,041 --> 02:36:16,240 made international news it was about 3787 02:36:21,270 --> 02:36:19,051 five five years ago there was a 3788 02:36:24,270 --> 02:36:21,280 basically a boneyard that was found and 3789 02:36:25,801 --> 02:36:24,280 there was a seer at work here not too 3790 02:36:28,140 --> 02:36:25,811 far from where I live actually and it's 3791 02:36:30,211 --> 02:36:28,150 kind of an unsolved story but I have I 3792 02:36:32,401 --> 02:36:30,221 have some some of the investigations 3793 02:36:33,871 --> 02:36:32,411 behind it so it's a I'm pretty happy 3794 02:36:36,270 --> 02:36:33,881 with the collection of stuff it's got 3795 02:36:38,551 --> 02:36:36,280 this got folklore it's got ghost just 3796 02:36:39,291 --> 02:36:38,561 got you know I've got some UFO stuff 3797 02:36:41,551 --> 02:36:39,301 it's got 3798 02:36:45,331 --> 02:36:41,561 miracles healings the sort of nice 3799 02:36:47,161 --> 02:36:45,341 collection I think of overview of of a 3800 02:36:48,960 --> 02:36:47,171 high strange weirdness in New Mexico and 3801 02:36:50,309 --> 02:36:48,970 and there's much more 3802 02:36:52,590 --> 02:36:50,319 you know I mean I could easily fill 3803 02:36:53,010 --> 02:36:52,600 another two books and maybe someday I 3804 02:36:54,510 --> 02:36:53,020 will 3805 02:36:57,630 --> 02:36:54,520 how long does it take you to write a 3806 02:37:00,510 --> 02:36:57,640 book of this nature well I that's a good 3807 02:37:03,000 --> 02:37:00,520 question in this particular case a few 3808 02:37:04,410 --> 02:37:03,010 of the chapters are sort of expanded 3809 02:37:06,660 --> 02:37:04,420 chapters of things I had done previously 3810 02:37:09,090 --> 02:37:06,670 and so for example I had previously 3811 02:37:10,650 --> 02:37:09,100 written a little bit about the the santa 3812 02:37:12,840 --> 02:37:10,660 fe courthouse ghosts and about the Kimo 3813 02:37:14,820 --> 02:37:12,850 theater and so those chapters they 3814 02:37:16,950 --> 02:37:14,830 weren't pre written but the you know the 3815 02:37:18,179 --> 02:37:16,960 bulk of it was already there overall 3816 02:37:20,130 --> 02:37:18,189 this book was actually finished about 3817 02:37:22,139 --> 02:37:20,140 two years ago it's sort of settled on 3818 02:37:23,790 --> 02:37:22,149 the Shelf it was being peer reviewed 3819 02:37:26,099 --> 02:37:23,800 through you and Empress because nak an 3820 02:37:28,110 --> 02:37:26,109 academic press and so they wanted it to 3821 02:37:30,360 --> 02:37:28,120 be you know very scholarly and you know 3822 02:37:32,849 --> 02:37:30,370 and have the facts right which is not 3823 02:37:35,429 --> 02:37:32,859 something as you know happens to all 3824 02:37:37,380 --> 02:37:35,439 books oh yeah in fact a lot of books set 3825 02:37:39,300 --> 02:37:37,390 purportedly our mainstream books don't 3826 02:37:41,219 --> 02:37:39,310 get fact checked anymore the book is
