Perik 14 00:00:48,970 --> 00:00:47,000 am the famous power cast community forum 15 00:00:51,490 --> 00:00:48,980 so I want to talk about and preface this 16 00:00:53,590 --> 00:00:51,500 Paul we had an episode a couple of weeks 17 00:00:56,410 --> 00:00:53,600 back featuring Frank Warren and Scott 18 00:00:59,170 --> 00:00:56,420 Ramsey about the Aztek case which 19 00:01:01,990 --> 00:00:59,180 obviously you know by and one of the 20 00:01:03,969 --> 00:01:02,000 points you raised was some background 21 00:01:06,490 --> 00:01:03,979 about Frank Scully now we all know Frank 22 00:01:07,810 --> 00:01:06,500 Scully was a variety columnist and a 23 00:01:10,149 --> 00:01:07,820 couple of things I read from him he 24 00:01:12,160 --> 00:01:10,159 seemed like a pretty straight guy but he 25 00:01:14,380 --> 00:01:12,170 had a pretty wacky background didn't he 26 00:01:16,899 --> 00:01:14,390 yeah I've been long running sort of 27 00:01:19,450 --> 00:01:16,909 tete-a-tete with Scott and Frank and 28 00:01:22,539 --> 00:01:19,460 Scott I worked on a film with him the 29 00:01:24,190 --> 00:01:22,549 Aztek 1948 film I actually made it back 30 00:01:25,990 --> 00:01:24,200 I think five or six years ago and 31 00:01:27,940 --> 00:01:26,000 they're very nice guys so it's not 32 00:01:30,399 --> 00:01:27,950 personal but I think they're just dead 33 00:01:32,140 --> 00:01:30,409 wrong about the Aztek case and so does 34 00:01:34,149 --> 00:01:32,150 pretty much everybody else has ever 35 00:01:36,520 --> 00:01:34,159 looked into it I've called the ethology 36 00:01:38,440 --> 00:01:36,530 Streck EULA because it seems to be the 37 00:01:40,860 --> 00:01:38,450 one case that you can stick a stake in 38 00:01:43,690 --> 00:01:40,870 it like JP Cohn did back in the 50s 39 00:01:45,399 --> 00:01:43,700 literally how can you get a bigger stake 40 00:01:48,070 --> 00:01:45,409 than you know the two guys that are 41 00:01:50,530 --> 00:01:48,080 perpetrating this thing are frauds and 42 00:01:52,510 --> 00:01:50,540 con men and the guy who's telling the 43 00:01:55,510 --> 00:01:52,520 story Frank Scully with a wink and a 44 00:01:57,430 --> 00:01:55,520 nudge is despite what Scott will say and 45 00:01:59,560 --> 00:01:57,440 he said it in the film sort of their 46 00:02:02,020 --> 00:01:59,570 version of the Peter Jennings Tom Brokaw 47 00:02:04,930 --> 00:02:02,030 dan Rather if their day when in fact 48 00:02:08,199 --> 00:02:04,940 it's probably more appropriate to call 49 00:02:10,449 --> 00:02:08,209 him the Pat O'Brien Glenn Beck Bill 50 00:02:12,520 --> 00:02:10,459 O'Reilly Jay Leno of his day you know 51 00:02:15,850 --> 00:02:12,530 kind of a bit of all of that stuff the 52 00:02:19,539 --> 00:02:15,860 man wasn't a journalist he was a gossip 53 00:02:21,369 --> 00:02:19,549 columnist he was a humorous reasonably 54 00:02:25,179 --> 00:02:21,379 decent writer when it came to stuff like 55 00:02:28,809 --> 00:02:25,189 that but to call Frank Scully a serious 56 00:02:29,990 --> 00:02:28,819 journalist is not just a stretch in 57 00:02:32,900 --> 00:02:30,000 logic 58 00:02:33,800 --> 00:02:32,910 patently false then there's nothing that 59 00:02:37,520 --> 00:02:33,810 can back that up 60 00:02:40,910 --> 00:02:37,530 but because so much of the Aztec case in 61 00:02:42,980 --> 00:02:40,920 a sense hangs on Scully's credibility as 62 00:02:45,140 --> 00:02:42,990 a person who could read 63 00:02:47,270 --> 00:02:45,150 Silas Newton and read Leo G Bauer and 64 00:02:48,650 --> 00:02:47,280 read these guys who could sift through 65 00:02:50,570 --> 00:02:48,660 the information who you know couldn't 66 00:02:52,520 --> 00:02:50,580 possibly have been fooled by these 67 00:02:54,680 --> 00:02:52,530 people I mean how could he be so 68 00:02:57,560 --> 00:02:54,690 gullible he was the Dan Rather or Peter 69 00:02:59,210 --> 00:02:57,570 Jennings of his day well they kind of 70 00:03:02,780 --> 00:02:59,220 need that in order to buttress their 71 00:03:05,570 --> 00:03:02,790 claims but it's just not true and so I 72 00:03:07,100 --> 00:03:05,580 did after I made the film and like any 73 00:03:09,949 --> 00:03:07,110 filmmaker you can make a film without 74 00:03:11,990 --> 00:03:09,959 agreeing with what either side says so 75 00:03:14,060 --> 00:03:12,000 in the film Scott gives his take on it 76 00:03:15,830 --> 00:03:14,070 but we also have Carl flocks at the lake 77 00:03:18,440 --> 00:03:15,840 Karl flock who's a good friend of mine 78 00:03:20,060 --> 00:03:18,450 sitting there saying well okay no look 79 00:03:22,430 --> 00:03:20,070 here's who Silas Newton really was 80 00:03:24,500 --> 00:03:22,440 here's who Leo Gbowee really was here's 81 00:03:28,280 --> 00:03:24,510 who Frank Scully really was here's how 82 00:03:29,900 --> 00:03:28,290 JP Khan and others exposed that and it 83 00:03:31,850 --> 00:03:29,910 was all hoax and a scam and the 84 00:03:34,310 --> 00:03:31,860 interesting thing Jean to digress for a 85 00:03:36,020 --> 00:03:34,320 little bit is Karl often had a 86 00:03:38,690 --> 00:03:36,030 reputation of being a debunker because 87 00:03:40,490 --> 00:03:38,700 he was one of the foremost proponents of 88 00:03:42,830 --> 00:03:40,500 the Mogul explanation for the Roswell 89 00:03:45,890 --> 00:03:42,840 case and he certainly was very vehement 90 00:03:48,199 --> 00:03:45,900 about Aztec being a hoax but Karl's 91 00:03:50,180 --> 00:03:48,209 point was often overlooked he said we'll 92 00:03:52,850 --> 00:03:50,190 look why would you talk about the Aztec 93 00:03:55,340 --> 00:03:52,860 case which was Buncombe when just down 94 00:03:57,680 --> 00:03:55,350 the road in Farmington New Mexico there 95 00:04:00,020 --> 00:03:57,690 was a case in 1950 the so-called 96 00:04:02,210 --> 00:04:00,030 Farmington Armada which karl took very 97 00:04:04,250 --> 00:04:02,220 seriously where dozens of people 98 00:04:06,680 --> 00:04:04,260 reported i guess the only way you could 99 00:04:09,410 --> 00:04:06,690 describe it would be a fleet of strange 100 00:04:10,940 --> 00:04:09,420 craft or something UFOs flying over the 101 00:04:13,550 --> 00:04:10,950 town of Farmington and then it was 102 00:04:16,159 --> 00:04:13,560 reported in another section of the state 103 00:04:18,380 --> 00:04:16,169 Las Vegas Nevada but Las Vegas New 104 00:04:20,960 --> 00:04:18,390 Mexico by other people shortly 105 00:04:22,670 --> 00:04:20,970 thereafter so Karl far from being a 106 00:04:24,890 --> 00:04:22,680 debunker was a guy who said look no I 107 00:04:27,860 --> 00:04:24,900 believe in good UFO cases he thought the 108 00:04:30,200 --> 00:04:27,870 Farmington case was a good UFO case but 109 00:04:32,840 --> 00:04:30,210 his problem was that cases like Aztec 110 00:04:35,840 --> 00:04:32,850 would come along the sexy flying saucer 111 00:04:37,969 --> 00:04:35,850 crashed bodies recovered case and with 112 00:04:39,620 --> 00:04:37,979 very little or no evidence you know 113 00:04:41,480 --> 00:04:39,630 people would get sucked into that and it 114 00:04:42,500 --> 00:04:41,490 would distract them from good solid UFO 115 00:04:44,480 --> 00:04:42,510 cases which is 116 00:04:48,470 --> 00:04:44,490 by Carl and I get along so well the one 117 00:04:51,620 --> 00:04:48,480 thing here about Aztec and this is what 118 00:04:53,510 --> 00:04:51,630 has to be if we take that book behind 119 00:04:55,730 --> 00:04:53,520 the flying saucers out of the picture 120 00:04:58,340 --> 00:04:55,740 and Frank Scully never existed 121 00:05:00,890 --> 00:04:58,350 is there an Aztec UFO case obviously 122 00:05:03,350 --> 00:05:00,900 Frank Warren and Scott Ramsey will say 123 00:05:05,240 --> 00:05:03,360 well they interviewed witnesses in Aztec 124 00:05:07,370 --> 00:05:05,250 New Mexico that gave them information 125 00:05:09,710 --> 00:05:07,380 that corroborated everything they would 126 00:05:12,050 --> 00:05:09,720 say that of course but I would encourage 127 00:05:15,590 --> 00:05:12,060 people to go to my blog read star films 128 00:05:17,630 --> 00:05:15,600 blog spot.com go back to 2005 when I 129 00:05:20,090 --> 00:05:17,640 wrote an awful lot about the Aztec case 130 00:05:22,750 --> 00:05:20,100 because Scott is not the first guy did 131 00:05:25,910 --> 00:05:22,760 Eden magically rediscover Aztec in the 132 00:05:28,190 --> 00:05:25,920 1990s after it had lied dead for forty 133 00:05:30,200 --> 00:05:28,200 years various other people had brought 134 00:05:32,840 --> 00:05:30,210 the Aztec case back to life again 135 00:05:34,670 --> 00:05:32,850 ufologist Dracula the most notorious of 136 00:05:37,760 --> 00:05:34,680 which was a guy named William Steinman 137 00:05:40,640 --> 00:05:37,770 who wrote a huge book called UFO crash 138 00:05:43,310 --> 00:05:40,650 at Aztec in the 1980s and what Steinman 139 00:05:45,620 --> 00:05:43,320 did is he and I carry with the exact how 140 00:05:47,540 --> 00:05:45,630 he got on to the Aztec case but he went 141 00:05:49,430 --> 00:05:47,550 as tech he did basically what Scott is 142 00:05:50,840 --> 00:05:49,440 saying he did went around interviewed a 143 00:05:53,240 --> 00:05:50,850 whole bunch of people stirred up a 144 00:05:56,480 --> 00:05:53,250 hornet's nest frankly ticked a few 145 00:05:58,580 --> 00:05:56,490 people off too and if you read the book 146 00:06:00,440 --> 00:05:58,590 and you go through it I wrote a series I 147 00:06:03,080 --> 00:06:00,450 think a four-part series on William 148 00:06:05,240 --> 00:06:03,090 Simon's research a fair bit of which 149 00:06:07,520 --> 00:06:05,250 mirrors the kind of research that Scott 150 00:06:09,650 --> 00:06:07,530 and I presume Frank have done in the 151 00:06:11,060 --> 00:06:09,660 last say 10 years and you can see the 152 00:06:14,600 --> 00:06:11,070 flaws not only in his research 153 00:06:16,310 --> 00:06:14,610 methodology but in his conclusions it's 154 00:06:18,680 --> 00:06:16,320 clear that he was a believer who was 155 00:06:21,200 --> 00:06:18,690 looking to find he found the answer that 156 00:06:23,480 --> 00:06:21,210 he was looking to find so where's the 157 00:06:25,880 --> 00:06:23,490 witnesses then you go I would encourage 158 00:06:27,950 --> 00:06:25,890 people to go to the it's 2005 you can 159 00:06:30,440 --> 00:06:27,960 find in my archive section witnesses 160 00:06:32,270 --> 00:06:30,450 like Fred Reed and Scott used to and I 161 00:06:33,710 --> 00:06:32,280 honestly haven't talked to Scott in a 162 00:06:35,390 --> 00:06:33,720 couple years I don't know if he still 163 00:06:38,390 --> 00:06:35,400 does but he used to tout a guy named 164 00:06:40,880 --> 00:06:38,400 Fred Reed as a credible witness and 165 00:06:42,260 --> 00:06:40,890 people bandy that term witness around 166 00:06:44,900 --> 00:06:42,270 witness means you saw the Flying Saucer 167 00:06:46,580 --> 00:06:44,910 none of these people were witnesses what 168 00:06:49,250 --> 00:06:46,590 they were defend were people who had 169 00:06:50,780 --> 00:06:49,260 heard the story or were aware of some 170 00:06:52,410 --> 00:06:50,790 aspect of the story so they're not true 171 00:06:54,090 --> 00:06:52,420 witnesses there 172 00:06:55,980 --> 00:06:54,100 can hand witnesses to the story if you 173 00:06:59,010 --> 00:06:55,990 will anyway he claimed that Reid was an 174 00:07:02,400 --> 00:06:59,020 actual witness though and I deconstruct 175 00:07:04,080 --> 00:07:02,410 Fred Reid's story in about you know a 176 00:07:06,870 --> 00:07:04,090 page and a half or two pages worth of 177 00:07:09,630 --> 00:07:06,880 text and it's something that a basic you 178 00:07:11,700 --> 00:07:09,640 know investigation 101 if you were 179 00:07:13,950 --> 00:07:11,710 looking at it objectively there should 180 00:07:15,780 --> 00:07:13,960 have been immediately red flags raised 181 00:07:18,060 --> 00:07:15,790 with a guy like Fred Reid or other 182 00:07:19,500 --> 00:07:18,070 people and again it's the same kind of 183 00:07:21,450 --> 00:07:19,510 thing that's happened in Roswell it's 184 00:07:23,940 --> 00:07:21,460 what Karl did with Roswell you hear 185 00:07:25,830 --> 00:07:23,950 these claims of dozens or hundreds of 186 00:07:27,540 --> 00:07:25,840 witnesses and yet when you actually go 187 00:07:29,400 --> 00:07:27,550 through and you say well look let's line 188 00:07:32,130 --> 00:07:29,410 these witnesses up and let's look at 189 00:07:33,870 --> 00:07:32,140 them individually case by case what did 190 00:07:35,940 --> 00:07:33,880 they witness are they credible you know 191 00:07:37,830 --> 00:07:35,950 does this story hold up all of a sudden 192 00:07:40,290 --> 00:07:37,840 the hundreds of witnesses or the dozens 193 00:07:44,010 --> 00:07:40,300 of witnesses get whittled down to well 194 00:07:46,290 --> 00:07:44,020 okay maybe two or three witnesses and in 195 00:07:49,050 --> 00:07:46,300 Roswell or maybe five or six the key is 196 00:07:50,880 --> 00:07:49,060 here palm to kind of know there's no 197 00:07:52,140 --> 00:07:50,890 witness as an Aztek that's okay that's 198 00:07:54,270 --> 00:07:52,150 the key the key is you're taking a 199 00:07:56,520 --> 00:07:54,280 handful of witnesses a handful of 200 00:08:00,180 --> 00:07:56,530 witnesses and a bunch of people who say 201 00:08:02,910 --> 00:08:00,190 we heard what they heard where they said 202 00:08:05,190 --> 00:08:02,920 this to me but in the case of Aztec you 203 00:08:07,950 --> 00:08:05,200 say there's no direct witness to this 204 00:08:11,000 --> 00:08:07,960 crash or this landing whatever it was 205 00:08:15,090 --> 00:08:11,010 name one I would say to Scott or to 206 00:08:18,630 --> 00:08:15,100 Frank name one credible proven witness 207 00:08:21,030 --> 00:08:18,640 who saw anything anyone give me a name 208 00:08:23,220 --> 00:08:21,040 that we can track down that we can check 209 00:08:25,350 --> 00:08:23,230 ourselves Fred Reed was one that Scott 210 00:08:28,770 --> 00:08:25,360 floated a few years ago I checked and 211 00:08:30,570 --> 00:08:28,780 that's not a credible story so I suppose 212 00:08:32,610 --> 00:08:30,580 all we can do is wait for Scott's book 213 00:08:34,500 --> 00:08:32,620 but you know Scott's been writing that 214 00:08:37,050 --> 00:08:34,510 book for seven or eight years now and 215 00:08:38,010 --> 00:08:37,060 eventually you know published or parish 216 00:08:40,770 --> 00:08:38,020 put up or shut up 217 00:08:42,450 --> 00:08:40,780 so you carry this case on you do radio 218 00:08:46,380 --> 00:08:42,460 appearances and conference appearances 219 00:08:49,770 --> 00:08:46,390 and aztecs been around for 60 years I 220 00:08:51,630 --> 00:08:49,780 can't see how they're uncomforted hasn't 221 00:08:53,700 --> 00:08:51,640 been uncovered before so I think it's 222 00:08:55,500 --> 00:08:53,710 probably time for Scott to actually 223 00:08:58,320 --> 00:08:55,510 publish this book and say here's what 224 00:09:00,360 --> 00:08:58,330 I've got and it's either good or it's 225 00:09:02,370 --> 00:09:00,370 bad I'm sure it's bad because I'm pretty 226 00:09:03,810 --> 00:09:02,380 I know what he's got but put it out 227 00:09:04,980 --> 00:09:03,820 there instead of just showing up on a 228 00:09:06,269 --> 00:09:04,990 radio show and 229 00:09:08,280 --> 00:09:06,279 keeping the same stories that have been 230 00:09:10,769 --> 00:09:08,290 told for 60 years and if that sounds 231 00:09:12,570 --> 00:09:10,779 harsh I'm sorry but it's not the case 232 00:09:14,850 --> 00:09:12,580 with a lot of these cases here we have 233 00:09:17,490 --> 00:09:14,860 this ancient history and the same is 234 00:09:19,470 --> 00:09:17,500 true with Roswell we have a handful of 235 00:09:21,329 --> 00:09:19,480 witnesses direct witnesses so-called 236 00:09:23,100 --> 00:09:21,339 direct witnesses a lot of indirect 237 00:09:26,010 --> 00:09:23,110 witnesses a lot of second-hand stuff 238 00:09:29,880 --> 00:09:26,020 people remembering what has passed 239 00:09:32,639 --> 00:09:29,890 through the telling the retelling of 50 240 00:09:33,810 --> 00:09:32,649 60 years there's no hope is there that 241 00:09:37,110 --> 00:09:33,820 we'll ever get to the bottom of that 242 00:09:39,630 --> 00:09:37,120 well I think in the case of Aztec we got 243 00:09:41,130 --> 00:09:39,640 to the bottom of a long time ago and so 244 00:09:43,949 --> 00:09:41,140 all they're trying to do is dredge up in 245 00:09:46,290 --> 00:09:43,959 case that was dead back in the 1950s in 246 00:09:48,360 --> 00:09:46,300 the case of Roswell Roswell is a little 247 00:09:50,579 --> 00:09:48,370 more complicated than Aztec I mean Aztec 248 00:09:51,449 --> 00:09:50,589 is opening shot unless you desperately 249 00:09:54,389 --> 00:09:51,459 want to believe 250 00:09:56,760 --> 00:09:54,399 Roswell there's still a hint I think 251 00:09:58,440 --> 00:09:56,770 even for skeptics that something 252 00:10:00,449 --> 00:09:58,450 happened at Roswell it might not have 253 00:10:03,000 --> 00:10:00,459 been aliens from Zeta Reticuli but maybe 254 00:10:05,130 --> 00:10:03,010 something crashed there there was some 255 00:10:07,440 --> 00:10:05,140 secrecy perhaps even a cover up whatever 256 00:10:09,360 --> 00:10:07,450 was mogul its top secret government 257 00:10:11,550 --> 00:10:09,370 experiment of snick red friends posited 258 00:10:14,639 --> 00:10:11,560 or you know Stan Friedman's aliens who 259 00:10:16,949 --> 00:10:14,649 knows and so assuming we don't have the 260 00:10:18,990 --> 00:10:16,959 answer yet or assuming the answers there 261 00:10:21,300 --> 00:10:19,000 but 60 or 80 percent of the people don't 262 00:10:22,920 --> 00:10:21,310 accept it as Nick Redfern once said to 263 00:10:24,750 --> 00:10:22,930 me and I agree with them all heartedly 264 00:10:27,090 --> 00:10:24,760 we'll never know you're quite right Jean 265 00:10:29,639 --> 00:10:27,100 Roswell has now drifted into the realm 266 00:10:32,040 --> 00:10:29,649 of legend and myth it is you follow geez 267 00:10:34,470 --> 00:10:32,050 Camelot King Arthur Robin Hood whatever 268 00:10:36,180 --> 00:10:34,480 you want to call it and there's nothing 269 00:10:38,490 --> 00:10:36,190 more to be gleaned there all that people 270 00:10:40,410 --> 00:10:38,500 are doing is arguing over things that 271 00:10:42,750 --> 00:10:40,420 have been it out there for 30 years 272 00:10:45,389 --> 00:10:42,760 the the Ramey memo is a perfect example 273 00:10:47,310 --> 00:10:45,399 guys like David Rudy AK argued with 274 00:10:49,410 --> 00:10:47,320 other people about the Ramey Men memo 275 00:10:52,380 --> 00:10:49,420 and they've been arguing about that for 276 00:10:54,960 --> 00:10:52,390 20 or 30 years and they're never going 277 00:10:57,030 --> 00:10:54,970 to change each other's minds so it's 278 00:10:58,860 --> 00:10:57,040 time for you follow G to get out of the 279 00:10:59,550 --> 00:10:58,870 time-warp it's like being caught on a 280 00:11:01,380 --> 00:10:59,560 Star Trek 281 00:11:02,970 --> 00:11:01,390 temporal loops where you just keep 282 00:11:05,130 --> 00:11:02,980 repeating the day over and over and over 283 00:11:06,949 --> 00:11:05,140 again eventually you have to get the 284 00:11:09,810 --> 00:11:06,959 enterprise out of the temporal loop 285 00:11:12,569 --> 00:11:09,820 it'll be Groundhog Day where the Murray 286 00:11:15,269 --> 00:11:12,579 has to become a mensch before the day 287 00:11:16,940 --> 00:11:15,279 ever ends we have to mention Phi F ology 288 00:11:19,580 --> 00:11:16,950 exactly okay so 289 00:11:21,710 --> 00:11:19,590 my apology and then we'll stop talking 290 00:11:23,300 --> 00:11:21,720 about Roswell stop talking about Azteca 291 00:11:25,580 --> 00:11:23,310 and I'll tell you the reason I even 292 00:11:27,260 --> 00:11:25,590 brought the subject in talking with 293 00:11:29,300 --> 00:11:27,270 Frank Warren about guest hosting some 294 00:11:31,040 --> 00:11:29,310 episodes and he'll be doing more the 295 00:11:33,860 --> 00:11:31,050 reason I brought up this particular one 296 00:11:35,690 --> 00:11:33,870 is because we had Kevin Randle on the 297 00:11:37,070 --> 00:11:35,700 show Kevin Randall put it down I said 298 00:11:39,380 --> 00:11:37,080 well okay well Kevin Randall's saying 299 00:11:41,390 --> 00:11:39,390 there's nothing to it let's get the 300 00:11:42,470 --> 00:11:41,400 people who think otherwise to express 301 00:11:45,290 --> 00:11:42,480 their point of view 302 00:11:46,640 --> 00:11:45,300 give them their two hours and then let 303 00:11:48,920 --> 00:11:46,650 the chips fall where they may and 304 00:11:51,380 --> 00:11:48,930 certainly we know where you stand okay 305 00:11:53,180 --> 00:11:51,390 Paul Campbell who do you have in store 306 00:11:54,890 --> 00:11:53,190 for us on this week's episode we're 307 00:11:56,360 --> 00:11:54,900 doing an episode oh I

00:15:26,520 and said he's coming and so i set up 381 00:15:31,220 --> 00:15:29,400 like a radio talk show with a bank of 382 00:15:33,380 --> 00:15:31,230 microphones an old-fashioned analogue 383 00:15:35,060 --> 00:15:33,390 tape recorder perfectly decent guy 384 00:15:36,710 --> 00:15:35,070 I think his publisher may have been with 385 00:15:39,440 --> 00:15:36,720 him at the time Jim Warren where I met 386 00:15:42,200 --> 00:15:39,450 him in other circumstances but anyway we 387 00:15:44,300 --> 00:15:42,210 had a pleasant couple of hours pleasant 388 00:15:46,370 --> 00:15:44,310 lunch and a few years later I was a 389 00:15:47,750 --> 00:15:46,380 commercial radio broadcaster but that's 390 00:15:49,970 --> 00:15:47,760 where it all began and now you know the 391 00:15:53,150 --> 00:15:49,980 rest of the story tell us you are forry 392 00:15:54,800 --> 00:15:53,160 ackerman story uncle Rory actually I 393 00:15:57,190 --> 00:15:54,810 didn't read famous monster to come win 394 00:16:00,080 --> 00:15:57,200 when I was younger I am you know and 395 00:16:01,370 --> 00:16:00,090 probably look through one that at the 396 00:16:03,010 --> 00:16:01,380 store but I never actually bought one 397 00:16:05,300 --> 00:16:03,020 but I wasn't a monster movies 398 00:16:07,220 --> 00:16:05,310 particularly in the Frankenstein and 399 00:16:09,070 --> 00:16:07,230 Dracula or the Universal Pictures and 400 00:16:11,120 --> 00:16:09,080 some of the newer stuff too at the time 401 00:16:13,670 --> 00:16:11,130 talking about the late sixties early 402 00:16:15,200 --> 00:16:13,680 seventies but it was actually in I did a 403 00:16:17,000 --> 00:16:15,210 film called visions from the edge the 404 00:16:19,310 --> 00:16:17,010 art of science fiction tonight and I 405 00:16:22,160 --> 00:16:19,320 went out and I found people who were 406 00:16:24,320 --> 00:16:22,170 doing cover for books and posters in the 407 00:16:26,150 --> 00:16:24,330 science fiction genre and I wanted to 408 00:16:28,550 --> 00:16:26,160 break the documentary up and somebody 409 00:16:30,310 --> 00:16:28,560 had written my friend Ian Johnson and my 410 00:16:32,019 --> 00:16:30,320 filmmaking partner Ian Johnson 411 00:16:34,780 --> 00:16:32,029 it suggested forry ackerman's me because 412 00:16:36,819 --> 00:16:34,790 he had no Nefarian with monster so I 413 00:16:38,860 --> 00:16:36,829 actually had him in the film it's 414 00:16:40,780 --> 00:16:38,870 showing his collection of sci-fi art and 415 00:16:42,819 --> 00:16:40,790 of course the other memorabilia before 416 00:16:45,850 --> 00:16:42,829 even really I really had a clear idea of 417 00:16:47,620 --> 00:16:45,860 who he was it wasn't until a couple 418 00:16:50,199 --> 00:16:47,630 years later that I actually made a film 419 00:16:52,120 --> 00:16:50,209 about what should we know about forry 420 00:16:54,550 --> 00:16:52,130 ackerman he actually had a paranormal 421 00:16:56,889 --> 00:16:54,560 experience one or two during his 422 00:16:59,850 --> 00:16:56,899 lifetime didn't he I don't know but for 423 00:17:02,860 --> 00:16:59,860 he was always very circumspect about the 424 00:17:05,230 --> 00:17:02,870 paranormal and he like science fiction 425 00:17:07,809 --> 00:17:05,240 he liked the stories he liked the idea 426 00:17:10,090 --> 00:17:07,819 of space platforms on the moon and 427 00:17:12,549 --> 00:17:10,100 rocket ships he liked the idea of 428 00:17:15,189 --> 00:17:12,559 monsters but when it came to the 429 00:17:17,500 --> 00:17:15,199 afterlife in peril for he didn't say a 430 00:17:19,990 --> 00:17:17,510 lot at least to me he didn't believe in 431 00:17:22,990 --> 00:17:20,000 the afterlife which I found kind of 432 00:17:26,500 --> 00:17:23,000 striking and odd considering for his 433 00:17:28,630 --> 00:17:26,510 otherwise extremely outgoing and and 434 00:17:30,310 --> 00:17:28,640 permissive view of the world let me name 435 00:17:32,980 --> 00:17:30,320 is stéphanie just a guy you know for his 436 00:17:35,320 --> 00:17:32,990 feet Esperanto yes I did yes along with 437 00:17:37,510 --> 00:17:35,330 William Shatner there's a few people on 438 00:17:39,430 --> 00:17:37,520 this planet know what Esperanto is 439 00:17:44,710 --> 00:17:39,440 anymore I know my first wife could speak 440 00:17:46,419 --> 00:17:44,720 Esperanto so 4e was a big fan of Incubus 441 00:17:47,770 --> 00:17:46,429 then that was the film Shatner did 442 00:17:50,020 --> 00:17:47,780 wasn't it that where they did the whole 443 00:17:55,090 --> 00:17:50,030 thing in Esperanto it was an incubus I 444 00:17:57,490 --> 00:17:55,100 think it was he quoted to me where lying 445 00:18:01,659 --> 00:17:57,500 beautiful lines from The Invisible Man 446 00:18:02,649 --> 00:18:01,669 and from Frankenstein anyway I had him 447 00:18:04,630 --> 00:18:02,659 in this film I thought it was a 448 00:18:07,210 --> 00:18:04,640 wonderful guy and I did have a good idea 449 00:18:09,700 --> 00:18:07,220 of who he was but Ian Johnston in 450 00:18:11,110 --> 00:18:09,710 Toronto he's my writing partner and a 451 00:18:13,750 --> 00:18:11,120 filmmaking partner 452 00:18:14,799 --> 00:18:13,760 we both did famous monster Forrest J 453 00:18:17,100 --> 00:18:14,809 Ackerman together 454 00:18:19,600 --> 00:18:17,110 Ian knew a lot more about Corey and 455 00:18:21,460 --> 00:18:19,610 educated me on for Ian became tricks and 456 00:18:24,100 --> 00:18:21,470 I had many trips before his place even a 457 00:18:25,690 --> 00:18:24,110 house of pies and we've had I've watched 458 00:18:28,530 --> 00:18:25,700 40 pick a party a couple of hamburgers 459 00:18:30,970 --> 00:18:28,540 my god so I got to know him more on a 460 00:18:33,250 --> 00:18:30,980 you know oh you're the very interesting 461 00:18:34,510 --> 00:18:33,260 guy and he was very respectful to be and 462 00:18:36,730 --> 00:18:34,520 know where we were absolutely making 463 00:18:38,350 --> 00:18:36,740 this film but in a way it was just sort 464 00:18:39,669 --> 00:18:38,360 of for him it was a natural thing he 465 00:18:41,110 --> 00:18:39,679 didn't make a big deal about it it's 466 00:18:43,330 --> 00:18:41,120 like okay you're here you making a phone 467 00:18:47,169 --> 00:18:43,340 bumping let's go eat and 468 00:18:48,940 --> 00:18:47,179 the quarry iPad um it's sad while you 469 00:18:50,440 --> 00:18:48,950 were talking Mike I checked on the the 470 00:18:52,239 --> 00:18:50,450 internet and what said is I'm such a 471 00:18:54,610 --> 00:18:52,249 William Shatner fan that I actually was 472 00:18:56,379 --> 00:18:54,620 right I know the name of the film that 473 00:19:01,330 --> 00:18:56,389 he was in where he spoke Esperanto it's 474 00:19:05,350 --> 00:19:01,340 it's this 1965 black and white classic 475 00:19:07,060 --> 00:19:05,360 and I use the term class yeah no it's 476 00:19:09,039 --> 00:19:07,070 it's it's actually kind of fun but they 477 00:19:10,389 --> 00:19:09,049 do it pretty much all in Esperanto so 478 00:19:13,600 --> 00:19:10,399 I'm sure Ackerman would have known about 479 00:19:15,129 --> 00:19:13,610 it my sort of question to you is I 480 00:19:18,960 --> 00:19:15,139 remember seeing your film and I'm pretty 481 00:19:23,919 --> 00:19:18,970 sure I saw this didn't he have a full 482 00:19:26,710 --> 00:19:23,929 Cylon warrior in his house wasn't a 483 00:19:28,690 --> 00:19:26,720 Cylon and it's great and get on this 484 00:19:30,369 --> 00:19:28,700 it's actually a different robot from a 485 00:19:32,889 --> 00:19:30,379 different film that although it does 486 00:19:35,590 --> 00:19:32,899 resemble a Cylon and yes he didn't have 487 00:19:37,239 --> 00:19:35,600 it there okay cuz not Robbie the robot 488 00:19:41,649 --> 00:19:37,249 from Forbidden Planet 489 00:19:44,109 --> 00:19:41,659 no but he did have but he did have a 490 00:19:45,549 --> 00:19:44,119 drink in his chair which he M guiltily 491 00:19:49,889 --> 00:19:45,559 went and sat a World War II wasn't 492 00:19:53,200 --> 00:19:49,899 looking and of course he had the 493 00:19:55,810 --> 00:19:53,210 Dracula's ring which by the way is in 494 00:19:58,539 --> 00:19:55,820 Halifax and owned by a local sculptor 495 00:20:01,539 --> 00:19:58,549 actually world renowned sculptor do I 496 00:20:03,609 --> 00:20:01,549 work for the White House I actually saw 497 00:20:05,320 --> 00:20:03,619 this ring I see this very more than once 498 00:20:10,840 --> 00:20:05,330 not on for his finger because he had it 499 00:20:13,239 --> 00:20:10,850 in the glass well I did see him Eric 500 00:20:16,090 --> 00:20:13,249 when he visited us in New York he was 501 00:20:18,489 --> 00:20:16,100 wearing it and that's weird do you 502 00:20:20,350 --> 00:20:18,499 mention that because we'll know in fact 503 00:20:22,149 --> 00:20:20,360 David manners the actor who played 504 00:20:32,560 --> 00:20:22,159 Jonathan Harker in the original Dracula 505 00:20:33,879 --> 00:20:32,570 was originally from Halifax that was the 506 00:20:35,230 --> 00:20:33,889 great thing about making this film I 507 00:20:36,999 --> 00:20:35,240 can't talk enough with the things about 508 00:20:39,730 --> 00:20:37,009 this guy where she was on the show but 509 00:20:41,440 --> 00:20:39,740 this guy knows Hollywood and and he had 510 00:20:43,509 --> 00:20:41,450 a particularly love of horror and sci-fi 511 00:20:45,940 --> 00:20:43,519 and it's because of our collaboration 512 00:20:48,639 --> 00:20:45,950 that we knew were the only people to 513 00:20:51,039 --> 00:20:48,649 make a film about four Ackerman 514 00:20:53,409 --> 00:20:51,049 exclusively and have a broadcast and we 515 00:20:56,190 --> 00:20:53,419 get it before he died and it's sort of a 516 00:20:58,799 --> 00:20:56,200 it's sort of a bittersweet 517 00:21:00,930 --> 00:20:58,809 and I'm glad that I was I sort of was 518 00:21:02,879 --> 00:21:00,940 the last one to serve film him in his 519 00:21:04,529 --> 00:21:02,889 last days and he was told by other crews 520 00:21:06,840 --> 00:21:04,539 for different purposes but they could do 521 00:21:09,330 --> 00:21:06,850 an entire film on him and you know 522 00:21:11,609 --> 00:21:09,340 here's the funny stories those who know 523 00:21:13,739 --> 00:21:11,619 out there in radioland forest actor they 524 00:21:16,409 --> 00:21:13,749 know that he was the congenial uncle of 525 00:21:18,960 --> 00:21:16,419 science fiction horror an editor of a 526 00:21:20,700 --> 00:21:18,970 magazine that people that kids would be 527 00:21:22,859 --> 00:21:20,710 able to write in like Joe Dante wrote a 528 00:21:26,789 --> 00:21:22,869 piece of the 50 worst film dude ever 529 00:21:29,369 --> 00:21:26,799 seen in his life before he turned the 530 00:21:32,099 --> 00:21:29,379 venue and article so he took care of 531 00:21:36,149 --> 00:21:32,109 these young minds like Stephen King and 532 00:21:38,909 --> 00:21:36,159 George Lucas and David show and and and 533 00:21:40,769 --> 00:21:38,919 and Roebuck and all these great 534 00:21:43,710 --> 00:21:40,779 filmmakers and actors that are out there 535 00:21:45,989 --> 00:21:43,720 right now he there's a big influence in 536 00:21:49,019 --> 00:21:45,999 their life mostly by the simple fact 537 00:21:51,749 --> 00:21:49,029 that he was a very kind man who really 538 00:21:54,749 --> 00:21:51,759 loved people's enthusiasm that matched 539 00:21:57,509 --> 00:21:54,759 his or any kind of enthusiasm and was 540 00:22:00,509 --> 00:21:57,519 its very humble and always welcomed them 541 00:22:02,460 --> 00:22:00,519 into his life in his house that's the 542 00:22:05,159 --> 00:22:02,470 man for sacrum it just happened to be 543 00:22:07,440 --> 00:22:05,169 side by heart now did you ever ask him 544 00:22:09,389 --> 00:22:07,450 about the because you've made a number 545 00:22:11,580 --> 00:22:09,399 of films about the UFO phenomenon and 546 00:22:13,979 --> 00:22:11,590 had before you made the the Ackerman 547 00:22:16,320 --> 00:22:13,989 film did you ever talk to him or ask him 548 00:22:18,330 --> 00:22:16,330 about what he thought of the UFO 549 00:22:21,769 --> 00:22:18,340 phenomenon because there's always been a 550 00:22:24,930 --> 00:22:21,779 very and best not it well yeah sometimes 551 00:22:26,609 --> 00:22:24,940 antagonistic but a leery relationship is 552 00:22:30,269 --> 00:22:26,619 sort of standoffish relationship between 553 00:22:31,919 --> 00:22:30,279 science fiction and ufology ufologists 554 00:22:34,200 --> 00:22:31,929 so did you did you ever talk to him 555 00:22:35,369 --> 00:22:34,210 about the UFO phenomenon well yeah in a 556 00:22:38,129 --> 00:22:35,379 roundabout way we talked about 557 00:22:40,529 --> 00:22:38,139 Scientology and l ron Hubbard and that 558 00:22:42,180 --> 00:22:40,539 was a supposed to be God and of

00:24:46,260 --> 00:24:43,030 chunks that were auctioned off or he had 609 00:24:49,140 --> 00:24:46,270 a list of 99 I think or you know what I 610 00:24:51,750 --> 00:24:49,150 don't know could be

called 685 00:28:17,340 --> 00:28:15,639 Supernatural investigative and that 686 00:28:19,499 --> 00:28:17,350 particular episode we were shooting was 687 00:28:21,090 --> 00:28:19,509 called life from other planets the 688 00:28:21,720 --> 00:28:21,100 original premise of the series was be 689 00:28:27,180 --> 00:28:21,730 believed in 690 00:28:27,930 --> 00:28:27,190 other planets not on

back and very quickly we hand it off and 700 00:28:51,749 --> 00:28:50,139 we did the research upfront and he was 701 00:28:53,099 --> 00:28:51,759 approved by the network in a couple of 702 00:28:55,460 --> 00:28:53,109 months we find ourselves there you know 703 00:28:59,700 --> 00:28:55,470 down in Arizona and California and 704 00:29:02,430 --> 00:28:59,710 Wyoming shooting this

would work for now so yeah I'm a trooper 708 00:29:15,129 --> 00:29:11,769 don't yeah an espresso or whatever 709 00:29:16,840 --> 00:29:15,139 yeah Mac and I had both had love of 710 00:29:18,669 --> 00:29:16,850 espresso so wherever we went we would 711 00:29:20,889 --> 00:29:18,679 find in this first place and disappear 712 00:29:22,840 --> 00:29:20,899 and I had like cigarette and espressos 713

very great I'm 716 00:29:30,340 --> 00:29:29,299 assuming that most people were a lot of 717 00:29:32,139 --> 00:29:30,350 people that are listening to the show 718 00:29:33,970 --> 00:29:32,149 probably know of Mac or they know 719 00:29:35,980 --> 00:29:33,980 somebody should set them up well you 720 00:29:38,499 --> 00:29:35,990 know why of course we've had several 721 00:29:41,019 --> 00:29:38,509 shows about Mac Mac was on the show and 722 00:29:44,220 --> 00:29:41,029 after he died we had Paul and Greg 723 00:29:46,869 --> 00:29:44,230 Bishop and Nick Redfern on board to do 724 00:29:50,919 --> 00:29:46,879 remembrance a celebration of Mac's life 725 00:29:53,759 --> 00:29:50,929 yeah when you guys were traveling around 726 00:29:58,200 --> 00:29:53,769 one of the people that you ran into in 727 00:30:01,480 --> 00:29:58,210 Wyoming was dr. Leo sprinkle right yes 728 00:30:03,759 --> 00:30:01,490 tell us a bit about how you ran into dr. 729 00:30:10,810 --> 00:30:03,769 sprinkle and and how Mac you know 730 00:30:13,060 --> 00:30:10,820 interacted with them we were we were 731 00:30:15,039 --> 00:30:13,070 filming around Wyoming we were going up 732 00:30:16,509 --> 00:30:15,049 to the infrared telescope and filming 733 00:30:19,810 --> 00:30:16,519 the sequence there with the astronomers 734 00:30:22,210 --> 00:30:19,820 and during a break period Mac was of 735 00:30:24,460 --> 00:30:22,220 course blogging and clearing and all 736 00:30:26,970 --> 00:30:24,470 that stuff and had gotten and Leo had 737 00:30:29,830 --> 00:30:26,980 gotten ahold of him at some holiday and 738 00:30:32,769 --> 00:30:29,840 the same town and so very quickly we 739 00:30:34,720 --> 00:30:32,779 added it to the schedule and do much 740 00:30:36,430 --> 00:30:34,730 with Leo we we did an interview we 741 00:30:38,440 --> 00:30:36,440 showed up at this place and Mac 742 00:30:41,369 --> 00:30:38,450 community with him but that was great 743 00:30:44,139 --> 00:30:41,379 that was a great example of holiday its 744 00:30:46,990 --> 00:30:44,149 internet 2.0 it really makes know baking 745 00:30:49,029 --> 00:30:47,000 a lot more yeah what did you talk to 746 00:30:51,450 --> 00:30:49,039 sprinkle about specifically or what did 747 00:30:53,649 --> 00:30:51,460 Mac talk to sprinkle about you know 748 00:30:55,060 --> 00:30:53,659 there was some tension in the episode 749 00:30:55,899 --> 00:30:55,070 because we were trying to deal with some 750 00:30:57,909 --> 00:30:55,909 people from the Jet Propulsion 751 00:30:59,889 --> 00:30:57,919 Laboratory we're dealing with people 752 00:31:01,570 --> 00:30:59,899 from the city and they were concerned 753 00:31:04,600 --> 00:31:01,580 that we were going to discuss the 754 00:31:06,759 --> 00:31:04,610 paranormal asketh aspect of UFOs or the 755 00:31:08,049 --> 00:31:06,769 supernatural aspect of UFOs probably 756 00:31:11,649 --> 00:31:08,059 more than that they were comfortable 757 00:31:13,720 --> 00:31:11,659 with to be associated with and so Leo 758 00:31:18,100 --> 00:31:13,730 was just a great fine because of course 759 00:31:20,230 --> 00:31:18,110 Leo as personal experiences and has very 760 00:31:22,780 --> 00:31:20,240 strong opinions about the UFO phenomena 761 00:31:25,510 --> 00:31:22,790 so worked out really great and 762 00:31:27,760 --> 00:31:25,520 provided in that episode you know a 763 00:31:29,470 --> 00:31:27,770 discussion that you know would have been 764 00:31:30,460 --> 00:31:29,480 difficult to get to otherwise because it 765 00:31:33,040 --> 00:31:30,470 means when you're doing a documentary 766 00:31:34,900 --> 00:31:33,050 like this you can just blab and talk and 767 00:31:36,670 --> 00:31:34,910 profit eyes on the screen you know or 768 00:31:38,380 --> 00:31:36,680 you can get involved with people and get 769 00:31:40,360 --> 00:31:38,390 their opinions and listen to them and we 770 00:31:41,830 --> 00:31:40,370 were kind of heavy on the science and 771 00:31:44,530 --> 00:31:41,840 and we wanted to have something on the 772 00:31:46,870 --> 00:31:44,540 on the UF o-- / paranormal weirdness and 773 00:31:50,620 --> 00:31:46,880 night I mean that in them in the nicest 774 00:31:52,660 --> 00:31:50,630 way but so real was sort of just because 775 00:31:55,420 --> 00:31:52,670 of the internet and because of max 776 00:31:57,400 --> 00:31:55,430 blogging and online presence you know it 777 00:31:58,870 --> 00:31:57,410 worked out just perfectly first I mean 778 00:32:01,780 --> 00:31:58,880 you know here we are in Laramie Wyoming 779 00:32:04,150 --> 00:32:01,790 and an interview pops up out of nowhere 780 00:32:07,060 --> 00:32:04,160 was awesome with Leo sprinkle of all 781 00:32:09,370 --> 00:32:07,070 people yeah what was max final 782 00:32:10,990 --> 00:32:09,380 conclusions he talked to Seth Shostak 783 00:32:12,880 --> 00:32:11,000 didn't mean wasn't he one of the guys on 784 00:32:15,100 --> 00:32:12,890 your list your hit list of people to 785 00:32:17,560 --> 00:32:15,110 chat with there's some 42 on the cutting 786 00:32:19,780 --> 00:32:17,570 room floor of Mack and Seth when things 787 00:32:22,060 --> 00:32:19,790 started getting heated up they had those 788 00:32:24,900 --> 00:32:22,070 two inspired you know in his you know on 789 00:32:27,640 --> 00:32:24,910 the internet before I was yeah and 790 00:32:29,560 --> 00:32:27,650 honestly I hadn't loved the stuff and 791 00:32:33,010 --> 00:32:29,570 Mac had some pretty strong opinions and 792 00:32:34,570 --> 00:32:33,020 of course sort of said so there were 793 00:32:36,990 --> 00:32:34,580 stuff that was said that never made it 794 00:32:39,700 --> 00:32:37,000 through the show but basically you know 795 00:32:41,770 --> 00:32:39,710 in the show we just got said his point 796 00:32:44,620 --> 00:32:41,780 of view and there wasn't there wasn't a 797 00:32:46,540 --> 00:32:44,630 heck of a lot of commentary going on it 798 00:32:49,300 --> 00:32:46,550 could have gone another way but you know 799 00:32:51,130 --> 00:32:49,310 we were doing three episodes if we were 800 00:32:52,600 --> 00:32:51,140 spending a year doing a documentary on 801 00:32:54,430 --> 00:32:52,610 this subject you would have been totally 802 00:32:56,320 --> 00:32:54,440 different oh yeah we would have 803 00:32:58,870 --> 00:32:56,330 definitely made people uncomfortable you 804 00:33:01,090 --> 00:32:58,880 know God down Rose that probably you 805 00:33:02,500 --> 00:33:01,100 know Robottom by some people but you 806 00:33:04,450 --> 00:33:02,510 know they get kind of roped into it cuz 807 00:33:07,050 --> 00:33:04,460 they're on camera but because of the 808 00:33:09,640 --> 00:33:07,060 nature of the series that we were doing 809 00:33:11,950 --> 00:33:09,650 but we don't so let's go down that road 810 00:33:15,160 --> 00:33:11,960 briefly yeah 811 00:33:17,710 --> 00:33:15,170 we're not so briefly what did Matt yeah 812 00:33:20,500 --> 00:33:17,720 I can imagine because I'm well aware I 813 00:33:23,320 --> 00:33:20,510 talked Mac at length about SETI and 814 00:33:26,290 --> 00:33:23,330 Shostak in particular and he had a he 815 00:33:28,930 --> 00:33:26,300 had a very sort of heavy disdain for dr. 816 00:33:30,160 --> 00:33:28,940 Shostak while at the same time he would 817 00:33:32,680 --> 00:33:30,170 say look he's obviously an intelligent 818 00:33:34,690 --> 00:33:32,690 man and he's certainly well-spoken and 819 00:33:37,659 --> 00:33:34,700 he's wonderful on television 820 00:33:39,750 --> 00:33:37,669 but that's it and then it was a basic 821 00:33:42,310 --> 00:33:39,760 opinion about it was it comes down to 822 00:33:44,649 --> 00:33:42,320 you know are you doing science because 823 00:33:45,820 --> 00:33:44,659 you want to do exploration you didn't 824 00:33:47,230 --> 00:33:45,830 want to push the boundaries or are you 825 00:33:51,730 --> 00:33:47,240 doing science so that you can pay for 826 00:33:54,010 --> 00:33:51,740 your Beamer and then she can keep high I 827 00:33:55,529 --> 00:33:54,020 mean it can really to be and honestly I 828 00:33:57,279 --> 00:33:55,539 tried to stay out of it because I was 829 00:33:59,110 --> 00:33:57,289 writing and working light another 830 00:34:03,630 --> 00:33:59,120 episode in the series and I was just 831 00:34:11,740 --> 00:34:06,310 did he actually say that to show sack 832 00:34:16,540 --> 00:34:11,750 that you know that's you know the sort 833 00:34:19,000 --> 00:34:16,550 of gloves off argument that happens I 834 00:34:21,250 --> 00:34:19,010 think people when when he passed away 835 00:34:23,230 --> 00:34:21,260 they had this impression and people's 836 00:34:25,720 --> 00:34:23,240 opinions of people changed after they 837 00:34:28,450 --> 00:34:25,730 died that Mack Bailey was he was a 838 00:34:31,359 --> 00:34:28,460 genuinely nice person but that he was so 839 00:34:33,339 --> 00:34:31,369 nice that he would just kind of he was 840 00:34:37,659 --> 00:34:33,349 agreeable and the truth is he was a very 841 00:34:40,060 --> 00:34:37,669 disagreeable person just that Mac would 842 00:34:42,369 --> 00:34:40,070 would always defer to the louder person 843 00:34:44,470 --> 00:34:42,379 in a conversation and occasionally Mac 844 00:34:47,290 --> 00:34:44,480 would get his ire up and speak a word 845 00:34:49,450 --> 00:34:47,300 but you know in the sort of higher a 846 00:34:51,250 --> 00:34:49,460 conversation sometimes Mac Mike Mac is a 847 00:34:54,190 --> 00:34:51,260 humble guy and you know it's interesting 848 00:34:56,440 --> 00:34:54,200 is and even though Mac and Seth did sort 849 00:34:58,720 --> 00:34:56,450 of like have a face on face for it was 850 00:35:01,870 --> 00:34:58,730 it wasn't all that heavy weight I mean 851 00:35:04,480 --> 00:35:01,880 the producer Jen Jennifer at the time 852 00:35:06,310 --> 00:35:04,490 thought it was potentially gonna go get 853 00:35:08,050 --> 00:35:06,320 a little bit too kinda heavy duty but 854 00:35:10,000 --> 00:35:08,060 there was a good amount of respect 855 00:35:11,950 --> 00:35:10,010 between the thing guys like that's 856 00:35:14,170 --> 00:35:11,960 everything book back and actually is it 857 00:35:16,960 --> 00:35:14,180 should be in my opinion cassette food 858 00:35:20,370 --> 00:35:16,970 they respected each other and that 859 00:35:23,410 --> 00:35:20,380 actually showed them around quite a bit 860 00:35:25,300 --> 00:35:23,420 yeah well you know if Seth Shostak and 861 00:35:26,710 --> 00:35:25,310 Stan Friedman could do a cruise across 862 00:35:29,410 --> 00:35:26,720 the Atlantic and have a series of 863 00:35:30,849 --> 00:35:29,420 debates about SETI and UFOs I think Seth 864 00:35:32,800 --> 00:35:30,859 can get along with anyone he's always 865 00:35:34,540 --> 00:35:32,810 seemed to be you know pretty agreeable 866 00:35:37,560 --> 00:35:34,550 and opinionated and I guess that's what 867 00:35:39,820 --> 00:35:37,570 Mac was too agreeable and opinionated 868 00:35:43,300 --> 00:35:39,830 should I ask about some of these house 869 00:35:44,890 --> 00:35:43,310 critics are they really critical of this 870 00:35:47,170 --> 00:35:44,900 stuff or they just 871 00:35:48,760 --> 00:35:47,180 doing a show well yeah there's a certain 872 00:35:50,230 --> 00:35:48,770 show business aspect to it I mean you 873 00:35:52,599 --> 00:35:50,240 know there's people coming and going at 874 00:35:54,279 --> 00:35:52,609 the city all the time there's people who 875 00:35:55,720 --> 00:35:54,289 actually put put their money into it 876 00:35:58,900 --> 00:35:55,730 they come in you know have a look around 877 00:36:00,220 --> 00:35:58,910 and and but you know by their own 878 00:36:02,289 --> 00:36:00,230 admission said he knows that they're 879 00:36:04,599 --> 00:36:02,299 only looking at an extremely tiny slice 880 00:36:09,220 --> 00:36:04,609 of the spectrum let alone you know the 881 00:36:10,930 --> 00:36:09,230 physical locations and you know I don't 882 00:36:13,420 --> 00:36:10,940 really personally get the impression 883 00:36:15,670 --> 00:36:13,430 that they were trying to put across that 884 00:36:17,980 --> 00:36:15,680 you know they were reveal and end all of 885 00:36:20,319 --> 00:36:17,990 this immediately finding out was like 886 00:36:22,779 --> 00:36:20,329 fun other planets but there's a certain 887 00:36:25,480 --> 00:36:22,789 sort of you know justification in their 888 00:36:27,370 --> 00:36:25,490 minds to what they were doing that would 889 00:36:28,569 --> 00:36:27,380 it be non sequitur to people who are 890 00:36:31,630 --> 00:36:28,579 thinking of outside of the box 891 00:36:33,370 --> 00:36:31,640 approaches to alien contact but the 892 00:36:35,440 --> 00:36:33,380 thing I also bothered to me here is that 893 00:36:36,760 --> 00:36:35,450 if they actually get the signal 894 00:36:39,130 --> 00:36:36,770 you know because you think of a scene an 895 00:36:41,230 --> 00:36:39,140 independent state we get the signal from 896 00:36:43,059 --> 00:36:41,240 outer space they're out of business 897 00:36:47,470 --> 00:36:43,069 because then other scientific 898 00:36:49,240 --> 00:36:47,480 disciplines take over because I think 899 00:36:51,579 --> 00:36:49,250 that if anything it would be a boon to 900 00:36:53,440 --> 00:36:51,589 their business because first of all they 901 00:36:56,440 --> 00:36:53,450 would actually have hard data they could 902 00:36:58,599 --> 00:36:56,450 actually focus their research rather 903 00:37:02,049 --> 00:36:58,609 than the random and sort of calculating 904 00:37:03,309 --> 00:37:02,059 way and I think I actually added well 905 00:37:05,950 --> 00:37:03,319 see do any good they're in a more 906 00:37:07,839 --> 00:37:05,960 tenuous position right now and they it's 907 00:37:09,849 --> 00:37:07,849 not that they make contact plenty of 908 00:37:12,010 --> 00:37:09,859 bursts of information or things that 909 00:37:13,809 --> 00:37:12,020 look like information and all kinds of 910 00:37:17,019 --> 00:37:13,819 events that we don't hear about that 911 00:37:19,539 --> 00:37:17,029 they met and then discard or save for 912 00:37:22,690 --> 00:37:19,549 later and we mean like we may have 913 00:37:25,210 --> 00:37:22,700 actually picked out something years ago 914 00:37:27,609 --> 00:37:25,220 yeah I know what jeans saying though and 915 00:37:29,109 --> 00:37:27,619 I think it's I think his point is valid 916 00:37:31,210 --> 00:37:29,119 in the sense that if you actually made 917 00:37:34,299 --> 00:37:31,220 contact with an alien civilization 918 00:37:35,680 --> 00:37:34,309 they're good scientists at SETI but all 919 00:37:37,210 --> 00:37:35,690 of a sudden there's an awful lot of good 920 00:37:39,069 --> 00:37:37,220 scientists on this planet that are 921 00:37:40,930 --> 00:37:39,079 working in a lot of other things that 922 00:37:44,049 --> 00:37:40,940 would become very very interested in 923 00:37:45,609 --> 00:37:44,059 that very quickly who might not be 924 00:37:49,359 --> 00:37:45,619 interested in it right now because it 925 00:37:52,390 --> 00:37:49,369 obviously that's like like the geologist 926 00:37:54,519 --> 00:37:52,400 and you know the paleontologists and and 927 00:37:57,190 --> 00:37:54,529 all of these ologists will be in there 928 00:37:58,299 --> 00:37:57,200 like like you know flies on bed rest 929 00:37:59,679 --> 00:37:58,309 pretty sure 930 00:38:02,229 --> 00:37:59,689 the only ones who wouldn't be invited 931 00:38:03,579 --> 00:38:02,239 would be ufologists never invited to 932 00:38:05,739 --> 00:38:03,589 anything I'll tell you that's the 933 00:38:09,459 --> 00:38:05,749 problem here nobody will ever take us 934 00:38:11,499 --> 00:38:09,469 seriously yeah well we take our they 935 00:38:13,449 --> 00:38:11,509 take themselves so seriously that I I 936 00:38:14,499 --> 00:38:13,459 think they've got the taking seriously 937 00:38:17,109 --> 00:38:14,509 part of it covered 938 00:38:19,120 --> 00:38:17,119 so it's interesting though a little ears 939 00:38:21,789 --> 00:38:19,130 a little Mac tidbit for you and Sethi 940 00:38:24,189 --> 00:38:21,799 when we were co-writing the the feature 941 00:38:26,140 --> 00:38:24,199 film I'm doing later this year doing 942 00:38:27,939 --> 00:38:26,150 time the sci-fi film there was a 943 00:38:29,799 --> 00:38:27,949 villainous character that was required 944 00:38:32,049 --> 00:38:29,809 and Mac and I had long conversations 945 00:38:35,370 --> 00:38:32,059 about this and we finally turned him 946 00:38:38,049 --> 00:38:35,380 into basically Seth Shostak so there's 947 00:38:39,429 --> 00:38:38,059 there's a character shows up from what 948 00:38:43,839 --> 00:38:39,439 do we call the signed the space 949 00:38:45,549 --> 00:38:43,849 exploration foundation Seth and the guy 950 00:38:46,269 --> 00:38:45,559 who shows up is this sort of fiftyish 951 00:38:48,609 --> 00:38:46,279 scientist 952 00:38:50,650 --> 00:38:48,619 and he seems very nice and friendly but 953 00:38:51,939 --> 00:38:50,660 it turns out he's the bad guy not and I 954 00:38:54,339 --> 00:38:51,949 don't want to ruin the film but there it 955 00:38:57,429 --> 00:38:54,349 is and Mac Mac and I had an awful lot of 956 00:38:59,199 --> 00:38:57,439 good chuckles about that and we sort of 957 00:39:00,789 --> 00:38:59,209 thought are we gonna get sued and then 958 00:39:02,620 --> 00:39:00,799 we said nah nobody'll know and 959 00:39:04,929 --> 00:39:02,630 unfortunately now they're gonna know so 960 00:39:06,459 --> 00:39:04,939 if he knows maybe he liked the idea you 961 00:39:10,029 --> 00:39:06,469 know his ego would be kind of filled 962 00:39:11,620 --> 00:39:10,039 with the knowledge that his villain 963 00:39:13,479 --> 00:39:11,630 well he's kind of like a Darth Vader he 964 00:39:15,309 --> 00:39:13,489 sort of turns you know maybe he turns 965 00:39:18,069 --> 00:39:15,319 good in the end I don't know yeah it's 966 00:39:20,259 --> 00:39:18,079 the cultural impact though of Seti very 967 00:39:22,509 --> 00:39:20,269 little money relatively speaking goes 968 00:39:25,059 --> 00:39:22,519 into SETI I mean compared to other 969 00:39:26,949 --> 00:39:25,069 expenses on developing bombers and stuff 970 00:39:28,719 --> 00:39:26,959 and you know they're searching for a 971 00:39:29,769 --> 00:39:28,729 needle in a haystack and they don't even 972 00:39:32,049 --> 00:39:29,779 know if the needles in the haystack 973 00:39:35,019 --> 00:39:32,059 although they think it is and yet 974 00:39:37,029 --> 00:39:35,029 they've Perfetti has permeated I think 975 00:39:39,069 --> 00:39:37,039 American culture certainly and probably 976 00:39:40,509 --> 00:39:39,079 most of Western culture so that I think 977 00:39:42,880 --> 00:39:40,519 if you ask most people they might at 978 00:39:45,699 --> 00:39:42,890 least have heard of it or seen it and if 979 00:39:49,989 --> 00:39:45,709 nothing else SETI is a tremendous public 980 00:39:51,699 --> 00:39:49,999 relations bonanza triumph for them that 981 00:39:54,339 --> 00:39:51,709 ufology has just never been able to 982 00:39:56,289 --> 00:39:54,349 muster and I've always wondered why and 983 00:39:58,569 --> 00:39:56,299 I think part of it is because the SETI 984 00:40:01,419 --> 00:39:58,579 guys are just so disciplined they stay 985 00:40:02,949 --> 00:40:01,429 on message consistently they sound 986 00:40:05,349 --> 00:40:02,959 intelligent and articulate and they 987 00:40:08,079 --> 00:40:05,359 generally speaking only put the best 988 00:40:10,179 --> 00:40:08,089 most well spoken of their members out 989 00:40:11,420 --> 00:40:10,189 front to the media whereas ufology is 990 00:40:13,400 --> 00:40:11,430 like herding cats 991 00:40:15,500 --> 00:40:13,410 so every now and then you'll get a smart 992 00:40:17,329 --> 00:40:15,510 guy like Jerry Clark or Stan Friedman 993 00:40:19,760 --> 00:40:17,339 who even if you disagree they sound 994 00:40:22,819 --> 00:40:19,770 smart but then you know 18 other cats 995 00:40:23,809 --> 00:40:22,829 come in and ruin it for everybody it's 996 00:40:25,940 --> 00:40:23,819 always struck me the difference between 997 00:40:28,160 --> 00:40:25,950 SETI and ufology they're not that 998 00:40:31,309 --> 00:40:28,170 different in terms of a what they're 999 00:40:32,690 --> 00:40:31,319 looking for and B I would argue sort of 1000 00:40:34,730 --> 00:40:32,700 the scientific merit of how they're 1001 00:40:36,859 --> 00:40:34,740 going about doing it and yet one of them 1002 00:40:38,990 --> 00:40:36,869 gets millions of dollars and scientific 1003 00:40:41,569 --> 00:40:39,000 respect and another one even though it 1004 00:40:42,230 --> 00:40:41,579 has scientists attached to it gets no 1005 00:40:44,029 --> 00:40:42,240 respect 1006 00:40:45,920 --> 00:40:44,039 and I've always wondered about that I 1007 00:40:49,190 --> 00:40:45,930 sometimes think it's more ufology fault 1008 00:40:51,170 --> 00:40:49,200 than anybody else's perhaps some 1009 00:40:53,299 --> 00:40:51,180 sponsors of SETI Ames Research Center 1010 00:40:55,250 --> 00:40:53,309 NASA headquarters National Science 1011

looked over the 1014 00:41:04,849 --> 00:41:02,849 packet morning there was Mary Hewitt so 1015 00:41:07,069 --> 00:41:04,859 these individuals in this tenders 1016 00:41:08,990 --> 00:41:07,079 there's Institute's they get funding 1017 00:41:11,029 --> 00:41:09,000 from a lot of different sources and I 1018 00:41:11,960 --> 00:41:11,039 mean they are in the in a way they're 1019 00:41:14,120 --> 00:41:11,970 sort of like that 1020 00:41:15,380 --> 00:41:14,130 sort of like a professional machine I 1021 00:41:17,779 --> 00:41:15,390 mean as long as they don't find anything 1022 00:41:19,279 --> 00:41:17,789 we can keep on going and when they do 1023 00:41:21,260 --> 00:41:19,289 you find something things will 1024 00:41:22,730 --> 00:41:21,270 fundamentally change if they do find 1025 00:41:23,900 --> 00:41:22,740 something they probably would have 1026 00:41:26,299 --> 00:41:23,910 already if they were going to find 1027 00:41:27,859 --> 00:41:26,309 something like anybody well it comes 1028 00:41:30,349 --> 00:41:27,869 back to the same issue again if they 1029 00:41:32,150 --> 00:41:30,359 found something would that mean that 1030 00:41:35,539 --> 00:41:32,160 they would have further research to do 1031 00:41:37,849 --> 00:41:35,549 or does that put the closing sign on the 1032 00:41:39,440 --> 00:41:37,859 door saying eventually you shut down and 1033

history of UFOs goes back 1064 00:43:20,680 --> 00:43:18,859 to as far as I can remember as a matter 1065 00:43:23,709 --> 00:43:20,690 of fact there's even an episode of my 1066 00:43:25,779 --> 00:43:23,719 life a dream that I had that you know 1067 00:43:29,979 --> 00:43:25,789 when I was just a small child 1068 00:43:33,809 --> 00:43:29,989 that's featured in Maxim is broken 1069 00:43:36,099 --> 00:43:33,819 stories crypto terrestrials yes right 1070 00:43:38,079 --> 00:43:36,109 you know tell us about the incident 1071 00:43:39,670 --> 00:43:38,089 because we are going to discuss the book 1072 00:43:42,759 --> 00:43:39,680 on a future episode of the parent cast 1073 00:43:46,150 --> 00:43:42,769 well it's a dream my head that I always 1074 00:43:48,069 --> 00:43:46,160 remember and the dream I'm standing in a 1075 00:43:50,019 --> 00:43:48,079 cave I'm very young like we're talking 1076 00:43:52,989 --> 00:43:50,029 four or five years old standing in a 1077 00:43:55,120 --> 00:43:52,999 cave with my father and my father is 1078 00:43:58,029 --> 00:43:55,130 extremely upset I'm sad when 1079 00:44:00,670 --> 00:43:58,039 unsettlingly upset today I look over I 1080 00:44:04,709 --> 00:44:00,680 glanced over to my left and they're 1081 00:44:08,709 --> 00:44:04,719 sitting on a I guess a rock thrown is a 1082 00:44:09,940 --> 00:44:08,719 large pansy flower like the kinds of 1083 00:44:11,609 --> 00:44:09,950 pansies that when you look at them they 1084 00:44:14,229 --> 00:44:11,619 look like they have the guys and 1085 00:44:17,410 --> 00:44:14,239 emanating from this creature this being 1086 00:44:19,299 --> 00:44:17,420 is disdain you know to the nth power 1087 00:44:22,499 --> 00:44:19,309 that's sort of the basic sort of 1088 00:44:25,180 --> 00:44:22,509 emotional its disdain and its areas and 1089 00:44:28,359 --> 00:44:25,190 it's not friendly but it's not 1090 00:44:30,999 --> 00:44:28,369 necessarily an imminent physical threat 1091 00:44:32,799 --> 00:44:31,009 and that's all it is it's a dream that 1092 00:44:34,719 --> 00:44:32,809 stuck with me but the striking thing 1093 00:44:37,599 --> 00:44:34,729 about it is that it's early early early 1094 00:44:40,630 --> 00:44:37,609 like that stuck with me you know and 1095 00:44:42,819 --> 00:44:40,640 remember you know possibly you know it's 1096 00:44:44,829 --> 00:44:42,829 very bare minimum yearly in my life is 1097 00:44:47,739 --> 00:44:44,839 got more somehow I ended up in that book 1098 00:44:49,359 --> 00:44:47,749 you don't know what the context of how 1099 00:44:50,720 --> 00:44:49,369 we use I haven't read his book yet it's 1100 00:44:54,770 --> 00:44:50,730 on its way to me you don't know what 1101 00:44:56,210 --> 00:44:54,780 I know it's a bike well and contacted me 1102 00:45:00,520 --> 00:44:56,220 cos Mike and I have met through a blog 1103 00:45:02,870 --> 00:45:00,530 and Mike's thing is synchronicity and 1104 00:45:07,550 --> 00:45:02,880 wonderful vlogs he has a really 1105 00:45:10,069 --> 00:45:07,560 interesting thinking guy you could say 1106 00:45:13,010 --> 00:45:10,079 thirteen is an illustrator public good 1107 00:45:15,950 --> 00:45:13,020 of everything I had mentioned that dream 1108 00:45:18,109 --> 00:45:15,960 in one of my blog entries on on the 1109 00:45:20,329 --> 00:45:18,119 paranormal and I think he picked up on 1110 00:45:22,670 --> 00:45:20,339 that and then just sort of decided and 1111 00:45:24,560 --> 00:45:22,680 and that can make comment about the good 1112 00:45:26,900 --> 00:45:24,570 blog and I think the two have been made 1113 00:45:28,550 --> 00:45:26,910 it together really well by the way Mike 1114 00:45:30,819 --> 00:45:28,560 did the illustrations for the book 1115 00:45:32,900 --> 00:45:30,829 that's written really really fascinating 1116 00:45:34,310 --> 00:45:32,910 illustrations and Mike has also been on 1117 00:45:36,800 --> 00:45:34,320 her show a couple of times because he's 1118 00:45:39,230 --> 00:45:36,810 had some of these weird synchronicity 1119 00:45:41,329 --> 00:45:39,240 type experiences over his lifetime 1120 00:45:44,480 --> 00:45:41,339 in any case Michael you never had 1121 00:45:50,390 --> 00:45:44,490 another dream or weird thing happened to 1122 00:45:54,020 --> 00:45:50,400 you then okay let's sear this you know 1123 00:45:55,970 --> 00:45:54,030 nothing in particular that alone that 1124 00:45:57,920 --> 00:45:55,980 you can take but if you look at over the 1125 00:46:00,819 --> 00:45:57,930 lifetime experience it just sort of adds 1126 00:46:03,200 --> 00:46:00,829 up like why was i interested in UFOs and 1127 00:46:05,480 --> 00:46:03,210 aliens for so long in my life 1128 00:46:10,700 --> 00:46:05,490 sure I grew up with Star Trek was in its 1129 00:46:13,160 --> 00:46:10,710 first run okay watch it and legs are on 1130 00:46:18,230 --> 00:46:13,170 and and all of those TV shows and the 1131 00:46:20,690 --> 00:46:18,240 media and names were friendly so I 1132 00:46:22,609 --> 00:46:20,700 haven't exposed to that all my life but 1133 00:46:24,740 --> 00:46:22,619 a multi had like sort of experiences 1134 00:46:26,960 --> 00:46:24,750 over my life that I don't necessarily 1135 00:46:29,030 --> 00:46:26,970 quite directly feel like I wouldn't go 1136 00:46:30,620 --> 00:46:29,040 up to Dave David say hey Dave you took 1137 00:46:34,220 --> 00:46:30,630 me out that might have passed away I 1138 00:46:37,370 --> 00:46:34,230 don't think I go that far but you know I 1139 00:46:39,710 --> 00:46:37,380 mean the world is it's not all that you 1140 00:46:42,380 --> 00:46:39,720 see and touch and people have 1141 00:46:44,930 --> 00:46:42,390 connections with each other that are you 1142 00:46:47,780 --> 00:46:44,940 know considered to be a psycho or a 1143 00:46:49,990 --> 00:46:47,790 paranormal nature there's ghost advance 1144 00:46:51,980 --> 00:46:50,000 if you evolve into the only events 1145 00:46:55,130 --> 00:46:51,990 Mothman there's there's 1146 00:46:57,329 --> 00:46:55,140 popular culture into something and the 1147 00:47:00,650 --> 00:46:57,339 the subconscious the collective 1148 00:47:03,719 --> 00:47:00,660 subconscious so I think that 1149 00:47:07,499 --> 00:47:03,729 synchronicities is my calling I think 1150 00:47:08,880 --> 00:47:07,509 really quite quite succinctly sums it up 1151 00:47:11,009 --> 00:47:08,890 is that it really does come down to 1152 00:47:13,979 --> 00:47:11,019 synchronicity that's why I love its 1153 00:47:16,289 --> 00:47:13,989 blogs too much and you notice how the 1154 00:47:18,599 --> 00:47:16,299 subjects in his blog are quite wide and 1155 00:47:20,759 --> 00:47:18,609 varied but all following fall under that 1156 00:47:25,349 --> 00:47:20,769 sort of synchronistic sort of aspect so 1157 00:47:27,569 --> 00:47:25,359 I definitely I'm actually gotten quite 1158 00:47:30,089 --> 00:47:27,579 sick of talking about UFOs in the aliens 1159 00:47:32,039 --> 00:47:30,099 and I and I joke about it because I 1160 00:47:34,620 --> 00:47:32,049 guess I come to the conclusion is that 1161 00:47:36,209 --> 00:47:34,630 you know it's all well and good but I've 1162 00:47:42,599 --> 00:47:36,219 been reading everybody's opinion for the 1163 00:47:45,150 --> 00:47:42,609 last 25 years everybody and everybody's 1164 00:47:47,909 --> 00:47:45,160 got you know a point or two and strong 1165 00:47:49,559 --> 00:47:47,919 convictions and like geez II know I 1166 00:47:52,919 --> 00:47:49,569 don't think in my lifetime I'm ever 1167 00:47:55,019 --> 00:47:52,929 gonna know and so that's sort of initial 1168 00:47:56,870 --> 00:47:55,029 so I think you can find out I think they 1169 00:48:00,929 --> 00:47:56,880 can find out it's sort of faded away 1170 00:48:03,120 --> 00:48:00,939 cynicism I hate to say it you know what 1171 00:48:04,949 --> 00:48:03,130 that's like a lot of people are awful 1172 00:48:07,140 --> 00:48:04,959 number of people awful large number of 1173 00:48:09,120 --> 00:48:07,150 people Michael have exactly the same 1174 00:48:10,799 --> 00:48:09,130 opinion they get involved in this very 1175 00:48:12,870 --> 00:48:10,809 enthusiastic Wow 1176 00:48:16,439 --> 00:48:12,880 it's the aliens we're going to discover 1177 00:48:19,709 --> 00:48:16,449 et or whatever it is and then it just 1178 00:48:22,439 --> 00:48:19,719 gets dragged into the mud and I know 1179 00:48:25,199 --> 00:48:22,449 that our listeners have heard the story 1180 00:48:27,929 --> 00:48:25,209 before I got involved with UFOs early on 1181 00:48:30,209 --> 00:48:27,939 I got out of it I felt it was toxic I 1182 00:48:32,939 --> 00:48:30,219 got back into it again and Here I am 1183 00:48:35,069 --> 00:48:32,949 again and I finally realized as I get 1184 00:48:37,229 --> 00:48:35,079 older that might as well just go with 1185 00:48:40,649 --> 00:48:37,239 the flow see where it takes us and maybe 1186 00:48:42,919 --> 00:48:40,659 the discovery is its own reward now yeah 1187 00:48:45,239 --> 00:48:42,929 exactly and the other thing too is that 1188 00:48:47,279 --> 00:48:45,249 and this happens a lot is that there's 1189 00:48:48,870 --> 00:48:47,289 discussions between people there's all 1190 00:48:50,519 --> 00:48:48,880 kind of you know it's just normal human 1191 00:48:51,599 --> 00:48:50,529 interaction kind of stuff that happens 1192 00:48:53,130 --> 00:48:51,609 and people decide they don't like 1193 00:48:54,899 --> 00:48:53,140 something that somebody said they don't 1194 00:48:56,819 --> 00:48:54,909 like but look at somebody or whatever 1195 00:48:59,069 --> 00:48:56,829 and they get into these arguments and 1196 00:49:01,019 --> 00:48:59,079 the great thing but the way I look at it 1197 00:49:02,669 --> 00:49:01,029 from my position is is that I can just 1198 00:49:04,529 --> 00:49:02,679 sort of sit back and try to take from 1199 00:49:06,530 --> 00:49:04,539 these areas what I agree with what I 1200 00:49:09,050 --> 00:49:06,540 don't agree with without gaining 1201 00:49:11,360 --> 00:49:09,060 I didn't want to get involved in it and 1202 00:49:13,790 --> 00:49:11,370 I'd believe me I mean I hosted a UFO 1203 00:49:15,830 --> 00:49:13,800 conference here here in Halifax in 2003 1204 00:49:20,150 --> 00:49:15,840 was a successful conference a beef 1205 00:49:25,720 --> 00:49:20,160 Jacobs I had gone later for styles and I 1206 00:49:29,830 --> 00:49:25,730 had and I shouldn't have you fall yeah 1207 00:49:33,370 --> 00:49:29,840 anyhow you know I we were accosted by 1208 00:49:36,740 --> 00:49:33,380 billy meier disciples I mean you know 1209 00:49:37,940 --> 00:49:36,750 hands out in criticizes a purpose I 1210 00:49:38,930 --> 00:49:37,950 thought we got into his apartment he 1211 00:49:40,670 --> 00:49:38,940 went into his apartment to pick 1212 00:49:42,530 --> 00:49:40,680 something up I'm taking them around I'm 1213 00:49:44,690 --> 00:49:42,540 press junkets to impress junk instead of 1214 00:49:46,940 --> 00:49:44,700 takin him around and he opens up his 1215 00:49:48,830 --> 00:49:46,950 apartment and there's two or three older 1216 00:49:50,030 --> 00:49:48,840 people in their 60s sitting in his 1217 00:49:53,240 --> 00:49:50,040 apartment on his couch 1218 00:49:54,920 --> 00:49:53,250 I know wanting an answer or actually 1219 00:49:56,720 --> 00:49:54,930 wanting him to listen to their answer 1220 00:49:59,600 --> 00:49:56,730 probably more the better way today and 1221 00:50:01,250 --> 00:49:59,610 that's it Chris to his credit he's a 1222 00:50:03,140 --> 00:50:01,260 cool cucumber let me tell you this guy's 1223 00:50:04,970 --> 00:50:03,150 been around he says he looks at me says 1224 00:50:06,920 --> 00:50:04,980 I don't know who we are I don't know 1225 00:50:08,120 --> 00:50:06,930 what you're up to but I just want to 1226 00:50:10,330 --> 00:50:08,130 tell you this I want you out of my 1227 00:50:13,450 --> 00:50:10,340 apartment before I get back I gotta go I 1228 00:50:16,940 --> 00:50:13,460 [Laughter] 1229 00:50:19,790 --> 00:50:16,950 know people like that I was looking at 1230 00:50:21,560 --> 00:50:19,800 the list of some of the documentaries 1231 00:50:24,020 --> 00:50:21,570 you've done and this is one which has 1232 00:50:26,360 --> 00:50:24,030 gotten really hot and heavy over and our 1233 00:50:29,050 --> 00:50:26,370 forms we have it at the forum got the 1234 00:50:33,080 --> 00:50:29,060 power cast calm and it concerns 1235 00:50:34,850 --> 00:50:33,090 intruders abductees speak out oh yeah 1236 00:50:37,270 --> 00:50:34,860 all right so then of course gets to be 1237 00:50:39,950 --> 00:50:37,280 very controversial because not just 1238 00:50:42,890 --> 00:50:39,960 people being abducted but the 1239 00:50:46,120 --> 00:50:42,900 methodology in researching this so how 1240 00:50:50,780 --> 00:50:46,130 did you approach this subject 1241 00:50:52,820 --> 00:50:50,790 well I decided that in the time and the 1242 00:50:54,560 --> 00:50:52,830 money that I had I could interview I 1243 00:50:57,310 --> 00:50:54,570 could get hold of certain people and 1244 00:50:59,990 --> 00:50:57,320 when it came to duck shion's I thought 1245 00:51:03,080 --> 00:51:00,000 about Hopkins I thought it'd be Jenkins 1246 00:51:07,070 --> 00:51:03,090 I contacted them they were available I 1247 00:51:09,680 --> 00:51:07,080 actually had David down two before to 1248 00:51:11,870 --> 00:51:09,690 the UFO conference in my head so I knew 1249 00:51:15,590 --> 00:51:11,880 David I thought what he was talking 1250 00:51:18,140 --> 00:51:15,600 about was extremely unsettling and in 1251 00:51:18,769 --> 00:51:18,150 terms of is his research methodology I 1252 00:51:20,839 --> 00:51:18,779 can 1253 00:51:23,449 --> 00:51:20,849 really common too much artists because 1254 00:51:25,370 --> 00:51:23,459 you know I have a Ford Seeley files but 1255 00:51:28,399 --> 00:51:25,380 we didn't actually have in the 1256 00:51:30,589 --> 00:51:28,409 documentary the lady from the US who 1257 00:51:35,959 --> 00:51:30,599 have been treated by Dave Jacobs or 1258 00:51:38,599 --> 00:51:35,969 listen to no I don't aired on American 1259 00:51:46,969 --> 00:51:38,609 TV has it I just wonder whether is that 1260 00:51:48,469 --> 00:51:46,979 there is that other thing or a bad thing 1261 00:51:53,659 --> 00:51:48,479 does it bring more attention to what you 1262 00:51:54,799 --> 00:51:53,669 do or just deprive you of income it does 1263 00:51:57,649 --> 00:51:54,809 both 1264 00:51:59,059 --> 00:51:57,659 you know I translated in the Russian go 1265 00:52:00,349 --> 00:51:59,069 through all like all that job well I'd 1266 00:52:02,209 --> 00:52:00,359 prefer like at least they have the 1267 00:52:05,899 --> 00:52:02,219 credits that I gave myself instead of 1268 00:52:07,339 --> 00:52:05,909 being called away yeah it's it's 1269 00:52:09,319 --> 00:52:07,349 interesting because Mike and I had a 1270 00:52:12,499 --> 00:52:09,329 brief falling out we're all friends now 1271 00:52:15,049 --> 00:52:12,509 again a couple of beer but we're good 1272 00:52:17,599 --> 00:52:15,059 but of all things over alien abductions 1273 00:52:19,519 --> 00:52:17,609 or the abduction phenomenon because as I 1274 00:52:21,769 --> 00:52:19,529 recall Mike you put some posting up on 1275 00:52:24,289 --> 00:52:21,779 your Facebook page and I made some 1276 00:52:26,749 --> 00:52:24,299 remarks about how and people would know 1277 00:52:29,899 --> 00:52:26,759 I have troubles with the methodology and 1278 00:52:31,729 --> 00:52:29,909 and all of that and Facebook is not the 1279 00:52:33,529 --> 00:52:31,739 place to have those debates that's 1280 00:52:35,839 --> 00:52:33,539 that's the one thing I think we can 1281 00:52:44,269 --> 00:52:35,849 agree on but it's a very touchy subject 1282 00:52:46,849 --> 00:52:44,279 even with these like what I don't know 1283 00:52:48,499 --> 00:52:46,859 that's yeah you don't face it's not for 1284 00:52:50,989 --> 00:52:48,509 Facebook I don't know if we want to 1285 00:52:53,539 --> 00:52:50,999 replay the debate but you just peaked my 1286 00:52:55,909 --> 00:52:53,549 interest guys so all right we know that 1287 00:52:58,329 --> 00:52:55,919 oh yeah you're already dancing around 1288 00:53:01,159 --> 00:52:58,339 the bush it's it's all about Dana Jacobs 1289 00:53:03,140 --> 00:53:01,169 methodology and buttons as well okay 1290 00:53:05,479 --> 00:53:03,150 well here's the thing that we kind of 1291 00:53:08,539 --> 00:53:05,489 know where Paul stands on this which is 1292 00:53:10,279 --> 00:53:08,549 well we're going to ask if we need to 1293 00:53:13,249 --> 00:53:10,289 explain to our listeners so what do you 1294 00:53:16,729 --> 00:53:13,259 think here do you think that it makes 1295 00:53:18,469 --> 00:53:16,739 sense at all to try to use hypnotic 1296 00:53:19,609 --> 00:53:18,479 regression to get this information is 1297 00:53:21,380 --> 00:53:19,619 there any hope of getting accurate 1298 00:53:24,469 --> 00:53:21,390 information or is it just feeding the 1299 00:53:26,419 --> 00:53:24,479 fantasy that's a great question that's a 1300 00:53:28,549 --> 00:53:26,429 great question what do you think'll it's 1301 00:53:30,709 --> 00:53:28,559 just feeding the fantasy my problem is 1302 00:53:31,120 --> 00:53:30,719 not with Jacobs personally or Hopkins or 1303 00:53:33,460 --> 00:53:31,130 any of the 1304 00:53:35,530 --> 00:53:33,470 as people and the thing that I've 1305 00:53:37,240 --> 00:53:35,540 noticed on the para caste forum is it's 1306 00:53:39,760 --> 00:53:37,250 become in other forms it's become very 1307 00:53:41,890 --> 00:53:39,770 personal there because of this dispute 1308 00:53:44,710 --> 00:53:41,900 that Jacobs is involved in now they're 1309 00:53:46,570 --> 00:53:44,720 attacking him personally and eventually 1310 00:53:48,100 --> 00:53:46,580 I think they'll start attacking all of 1311 00:53:50,260 --> 00:53:48,110 these people personally for me it's not 1312 00:53:53,980 --> 00:53:50,270 personal its professional and I do not 1313 00:53:56,500 --> 00:53:53,990 believe that hypnosis is a valid tool 1314 00:53:58,870 --> 00:53:56,510 for recovering memories there's reason 1315 00:54:00,040 --> 00:53:58,880 why hypnotically induced testimony isn't 1316 00:54:04,210 --> 00:54:00,050 allowed mid court of law for instance 1317 00:54:06,160 --> 00:54:04,220 you can go to the Crown Prosecution 1318 00:54:08,320 --> 00:54:06,170 Service website in the United Kingdom 1319 00:54:11,350 --> 00:54:08,330 for instance and take a look at exactly 1320 00:54:12,700 --> 00:54:11,360 how they deal with hypnosis now the 1321 00:54:15,280 --> 00:54:12,710 interesting thing is you can't use 1322 00:54:18,340 --> 00:54:15,290 hypnotically induced testimony in a 1323 00:54:23,160 --> 00:54:18,350 trial but the police will use hypnosis 1324 00:54:26,050 --> 00:54:23,170 as an investigative tool the tool right 1325 00:54:27,070 --> 00:54:26,060 well I was just gonna say how how valid 1326 00:54:28,930 --> 00:54:27,080 is that though because the police 1327 00:54:33,880 --> 00:54:28,940 sometimes occasionally will use psychics 1328 00:54:36,070 --> 00:54:33,890 but that points out to me like I would 1329 00:54:38,140 --> 00:54:36,080 not use hypnosis as a tool for 1330 00:54:40,750 --> 00:54:38,150 investigation I think especially in some 1331 00:54:43,030 --> 00:54:40,760 child abuse cases in Canada there was a 1332 00:54:45,730 --> 00:54:43,040 very famous case in Saskatchewan years 1333 00:54:48,460 --> 00:54:45,740 ago where you know it almost became like 1334 00:54:51,040 --> 00:54:48,470 the Salem witch trials where children's 1335 00:54:53,100 --> 00:54:51,050 testimony was being colored in that sort 1336 00:54:56,560 --> 00:54:53,110 of thing I think it's a very dangerous 1337 00:54:59,500 --> 00:54:56,570 tool when especially when used by people 1338 00:55:01,600 --> 00:54:59,510 who are not trained as psychologists or 1339 00:55:03,640 --> 00:55:01,610 psychiatrists if you haven't got like 1340 00:55:05,110 --> 00:55:03,650 john mack who went at harvard he went 1341 00:55:06,550 --> 00:55:05,120 through an entire review of what he was 1342 00:55:08,650 --> 00:55:06,560 doing and they said while there were a 1343 00:55:10,540 --> 00:55:08,660 few methodological things that they 1344 00:55:12,100 --> 00:55:10,550 perhaps didn't agree with you know he 1345 00:55:14,590 --> 00:55:12,110 hadn't breached any ethics what he was 1346 00:55:16,660 --> 00:55:14,600 doing was perfectly perfectly fine mack 1347 00:55:19,180 --> 00:55:16,670 is on one hand because you know that's 1348 00:55:21,190 --> 00:55:19,190 what he did but when you take a guy and 1349 00:55:22,780 --> 00:55:21,200 this is not meant as a personal attack 1350 00:55:25,840 --> 00:55:22,790 but when you take a guy who's a history 1351 00:55:27,700 --> 00:55:25,850 professor like jacobs or an artist like 1352 00:55:30,370 --> 00:55:27,710 Budd Hopkins and all of a sudden they're 1353 00:55:32,620 --> 00:55:30,380 going around hypnotizing people I think 1354 00:55:33,850 --> 00:55:32,630 that's very dangerous and especially 1355 00:55:37,120 --> 00:55:33,860 when you might be dealing with people 1356 00:55:39,190 --> 00:55:37,130 who have you know in some cases severe 1357 00:55:40,870 --> 00:55:39,200 mental problems severe psychiatric 1358 00:55:44,380 --> 00:55:40,880 issues 1359 00:55:48,279 --> 00:55:44,390 and that's the problem I have with the 1360 00:55:50,380 --> 00:55:48,289 abduction phenomenon and people hear me 1361 00:55:53,499 --> 00:55:50,390 say that and I've talked to people in 1362 00:55:55,690 --> 00:55:53,509 the UFO field and they it's amazing 1363 00:55:57,999 --> 00:55:55,700 they will trot out the D bunker label 1364 00:55:59,049 --> 00:55:58,009 and I know Kevin Randle took hits for 1365 00:56:01,180 --> 00:55:59,059 this when he wrote his book the 1366 00:56:03,640 --> 00:56:01,190 abduction enigma and basically came to 1367 00:56:07,569 --> 00:56:03,650 the same conclusion about hypnosis but I 1368 00:56:10,359 --> 00:56:07,579 say that if you take all of that out you 1369 00:56:12,309 --> 00:56:10,369 still have as with the UFO phenomenon 1370 00:56:14,230 --> 00:56:12,319 itself I think you still have a small 1371 00:56:16,779 --> 00:56:14,240 number of cases much smaller than 1372 00:56:18,490 --> 00:56:16,789 Hopkins or Jacobson will well sort of 1373 00:56:21,099 --> 00:56:18,500 assert but you still have a small number 1374 00:56:23,200 --> 00:56:21,109 of cases that he can explain and this I 1375 00:56:25,150 --> 00:56:23,210 think was John Mack's conclusion that 1376 00:56:27,339 --> 00:56:25,160 are very interesting that deserve 1377 00:56:28,630 --> 00:56:27,349 further research serious scientific 1378 00:56:30,549 --> 00:56:28,640 research because there might be 1379 00:56:33,700 --> 00:56:30,559 something going on and we might learn 1380 00:56:36,160 --> 00:56:33,710 something but it doesn't mean that 1381 00:56:37,390 --> 00:56:36,170 they're hybrids from Zeta Reticuli or 1382 00:56:39,819 --> 00:56:37,400 whatever that are planning on taking 1383 00:56:41,620 --> 00:56:39,829 over the earth so the real problem I 1384 00:56:44,589 --> 00:56:41,630 have I suppose is the methodology and 1385 00:56:48,309 --> 00:56:44,599 then also as is the case with so much in 1386 00:56:50,710 --> 00:56:48,319 ufology people taking a certain piece of 1387 00:56:52,599 --> 00:56:50,720 evidence or a certain group of evidence 1388 00:56:54,400 --> 00:56:52,609 and then drawing a conclusion from it 1389 00:56:57,430 --> 00:56:54,410 and saying okay well here's this and 1390 00:57:00,069 --> 00:56:57,440 then it has to be this and I know that's 1391 00:57:02,529 --> 00:57:00,079 one of the things that always annoyed 1392 00:57:04,569 --> 00:57:02,539 Mac and it annoys Greg and Nick and I 1393 00:57:06,160 --> 00:57:04,579 and that's why we all got along so well 1394 00:57:08,019 --> 00:57:06,170 because we would look at the evidence 1395 00:57:09,400 --> 00:57:08,029 and say well okay yeah it could be that 1396 00:57:11,200 --> 00:57:09,410 or then it could be that or it could be 1397 00:57:12,609 --> 00:57:11,210 that or it could be that and so I don't 1398 00:57:14,680 --> 00:57:12,619 like the conclusions that I don't like 1399 00:57:17,049 --> 00:57:14,690 the methodology even though I think 1400 00:57:19,509 --> 00:57:17,059 there's still an enigma there that 1401 00:57:22,509 --> 00:57:19,519 deserves serious scientific study so 1402 00:57:25,720 --> 00:57:22,519 there that's that's my decisions he has 1403 00:57:29,019 --> 00:57:25,730 right what the Jacobs conclusion is if 1404 00:57:35,410 --> 00:57:29,029 we might recollection pretty wild is 1405 00:57:37,809 --> 00:57:35,420 that the infiltrated by aliens or 1406 00:57:40,299 --> 00:57:37,819 created hybrids they're doing this since 1407 00:57:41,410 --> 00:57:40,309 the late 1870s and at this rate they'll 1408 00:57:45,430 --> 00:57:41,420 have X amount of the population 1409 00:57:48,609 --> 00:57:45,440 converted by exp and holy mackerel look 1410 00:57:50,769 --> 00:57:48,619 out and that's was the basic message and 1411 00:57:52,960 --> 00:57:50,779 I feel like this like kind of outlandish 1412 00:57:54,710 --> 00:57:52,970 but at the same time I'm like well you 1413 00:57:57,950 --> 00:57:54,720 know God knows the mania 1414 00:58:00,770 --> 00:57:57,960 who knows that they you know how based 1415 00:58:06,650 --> 00:58:00,780 on you know to me I just looked at it as 1416 00:58:10,700 --> 00:58:06,660 he is assured his public that he has 1417 00:58:12,800 --> 00:58:10,710 witnessed has studied many cases and has 1418 00:58:16,270 --> 00:58:12,810 found correlations and has controlled 1419 00:58:19,430 --> 00:58:16,280 questions that weed out obvious face and 1420 00:58:22,700 --> 00:58:19,440 and personally I mean I haven't gone 1421 00:58:24,080 --> 00:58:22,710 through his files there's not a lot of 1422 00:58:26,390 --> 00:58:24,090 people who are willing to put what they 1423 00:58:29,090 --> 00:58:26,400 have to say and you know quote unquote 1424 00:58:30,980 --> 00:58:29,100 back it up with research out there in 1425 00:58:33,350 --> 00:58:30,990 book form and on the internet and on the 1426 00:58:35,090 --> 00:58:33,360 lecture circuit you know from my point 1427 00:58:36,380 --> 00:58:35,100 of view as a filmmaker what am I 1428 00:58:39,500 --> 00:58:36,390 supposed to do I mean Who am I supposed 1429 00:58:42,980 --> 00:58:39,510 to talk to you know I mean this guy is a 1430 00:58:44,510 --> 00:58:42,990 widely published and some would say 1431 00:58:47,480 --> 00:58:44,520 somebody who is going out on a limb 1432 00:58:49,790 --> 00:58:47,490 considering exact identity sector in the 1433 00:58:51,350 --> 00:58:49,800 field you know why wouldn't we at least 1434 00:58:52,940 --> 00:58:51,360 take a look at what he's saying and I 1435 00:58:54,980 --> 00:58:52,950 think Paul you agree with that it's just 1436 00:58:57,200 --> 00:58:54,990 you're questioning his methodology which 1437 00:58:58,670 --> 00:58:57,210 I can't really comment on I mean I agree 1438 00:58:59,630 --> 00:58:58,680 with a lot of things you say it there 1439 00:59:02,630 --> 00:58:59,640 you know there's nothing I really 1440 00:59:06,770 --> 00:59:02,640 disagree with other than the fact that 1441 00:59:10,190 --> 00:59:06,780 I'm not so sure that hypnosis is suggest 1442 00:59:11,660 --> 00:59:10,200 is as suggestive as maybe you are I'm 1443 00:59:13,040 --> 00:59:11,670 not so sure about that 1444 00:59:14,990 --> 00:59:13,050 and that's something we'll have to 1445 00:59:17,390 --> 00:59:15,000 debate I think a bit more on the other 1446 00:59:18,740 --> 00:59:17,400 side of the show

don't know what it is it 1712 01:10:17,279 --> 01:10:14,889 could be both but there's definitely 1713 01:10:19,649 --> 01:10:17,289 something going on absolutely if you 1714 01:10:22,020 --> 01:10:19,659 look at the information and the stories 1715 01:10:24,870 --> 01:10:22,030 and the data over hundreds and hundreds 1716 01:10:27,899 --> 01:10:24,880 if not longer years it's something going 1717 01:10:29,700 --> 01:10:27,909 on so I definitely took a stand that you 1718 01:10:32,520 --> 01:10:29,710 know you should you should pay attention 1719 01:10:34,049 --> 01:10:32,530 to this it is it is significant and it's 1720 01:10:36,209 --> 01:10:34,059 Chris Kyle said in one of my 1721 01:10:38,060 --> 01:10:36,219 documentaries is that either way it's oh 1722 01:10:40,979 --> 01:10:38,070 it's a knoll it's a no-lose situation 1723 01:10:43,500 --> 01:10:40,989 because it turns out that there are 1724 01:10:45,779 --> 01:10:43,510 aliens in our universe or I should say 1725 01:10:47,370 --> 01:10:45,789 other other civilizations in their 1726 01:10:48,839 --> 01:10:47,380 universe and we get to interface with 1727 01:10:51,000 --> 01:10:48,849 them how amazing is that 1728 01:10:53,939 --> 01:10:51,010 is that an employee chance that we are 1729 01:10:57,359 --> 01:10:53,949 the only ones in the others then how 1730 01:10:59,520 --> 01:10:57,369 precious we are you know and and terms 1731 01:11:02,220 --> 01:10:59,530 of origin in terms of motivations from 1732 01:11:04,589 --> 01:11:02,230 those but I definitely in my in my 1733 01:11:06,629 --> 01:11:04,599 documentaries took the side this is 1734 01:11:08,220 --> 01:11:06,639 important this is not frivolous I'm not 1735 01:11:11,040 --> 01:11:08,230 gonna stand on the fence like a 1736 01:11:13,770 --> 01:11:11,050 journalist on CNN you know you've got 1737 01:11:16,100 --> 01:11:13,780 you need to take notice of it but I try 1738 01:11:19,830 --> 01:11:16,110 my best to just let the people that I 1739 01:11:21,930 --> 01:11:19,840 interview and that I profile to tell 1740 01:11:23,939 --> 01:11:21,940 tell us what they think right I think by 1741 01:11:25,439 --> 01:11:23,949 doing the film's we've already unless 1742 01:11:27,479 --> 01:11:25,449 you think that people are just doing it 1743 01:11:29,009 --> 01:11:27,489 for dirty filthy lucre as they say I 1744 01:11:30,509 --> 01:11:29,019 think you've already taken a position to 1745 01:11:32,819 --> 01:11:30,519 in the sense that you say look this is a 1746 01:11:35,850 --> 01:11:32,829 valuable subject that deserves 1747 01:11:38,550 --> 01:11:35,860 consideration that's a really good thing 1748 01:11:40,860 --> 01:11:38,560 you brought up dirty filthy lucre 1749 01:11:43,890 --> 01:11:40,870 question is and it's a valid question is 1750 01:11:46,170 --> 01:11:43,900 is it wrong to profit you know to make 1751 01:11:48,990 --> 01:11:46,180 money from the research and discussion 1752 01:11:53,730 --> 01:11:49,000 of UFOs and I know that that polarizes 1753 01:11:55,020 --> 01:11:53,740 people my personal opinion is is you 1754 01:11:57,540 --> 01:11:55,030 know every field of research has 1755 01:11:59,640 --> 01:11:57,550 professionals and you know yes it's more 1756 01:12:00,630 --> 01:11:59,650 freelance but you know does that mean 1757 01:12:03,080 --> 01:12:00,640 that because you're actually making 1758 01:12:08,370 --> 01:12:03,090 money selling books like Stan or whoever 1759 01:12:10,080 --> 01:12:08,380 that that you sold out I was just gonna 1760 01:12:11,970 --> 01:12:10,090 say I have a lot of disagreements with 1761 01:12:14,310 --> 01:12:11,980 Stan about substantive issues but the 1762 01:12:16,590 --> 01:12:14,320 one thing that I I will always I think 1763 01:12:18,840 --> 01:12:16,600 Stan's a great guy but you hear people 1764 01:12:20,940 --> 01:12:18,850 criticize him for they say oh well he's 1765 01:12:23,100 --> 01:12:20,950 just in it for the money or his nuclear 1766 01:12:25,110 --> 01:12:23,110 his career in nuclear physics sort of 1767 01:12:27,690 --> 01:12:25,120 blew up no pun intended in the late 60s 1768 01:12:29,010 --> 01:12:27,700 which is true and he went into UFO 1769 01:12:31,110 --> 01:12:29,020 research because he had to pay for the 1770 01:12:32,910 --> 01:12:31,120 house or whatever and I've known stand 1771 01:12:34,410 --> 01:12:32,920 for 30 years yes he makes money off it 1772 01:12:36,960 --> 01:12:34,420 yes he has a nice house in Fredericton 1773 01:12:39,990 --> 01:12:36,970 so what I mean in the end of the day 1774 01:12:43,320 --> 01:12:40,000 nobody says that about Seth Shostak or 1775 01:12:44,880 --> 01:12:43,330 no Misha ikkaku or the guy who's if you 1776 01:12:46,440 --> 01:12:44,890 want to just talk science you know the 1777 01:12:47,550 --> 01:12:46,450 guy who's running the observatory here 1778 01:12:50,340 --> 01:12:47,560 in Halifax at Saint Mary's University 1779 01:12:52,080 --> 01:12:50,350 they make a living off it so why 1780 01:12:54,900 --> 01:12:52,090 shouldn't somebody make living off of 1781 01:12:56,160 --> 01:12:54,910 researching the UFO phenomenon and I 1782 01:12:59,100 --> 01:12:56,170 would say if you can actually make a 1783 01:13:00,510 --> 01:12:59,110 living off it good good for you I mean 1784 01:13:11,430 --> 01:13:00,520 that's if you can actually make a living 1785 01:13:16,959 --> 01:13:14,169 hey neighbors would you like to see the 1786 01:13:18,669 --> 01:13:16,969 power cast live long and prosper well if 1787 01:13:21,009 -->

Lapera cast calm at sales of the power 1796 01:13:53,380 --> 01:13:50,610 this is the bear gasps you never know 1797 01:13:56,850 --> 01:13:53,390 what's next 1798 01:14:01,960 --> 01:13:59,950 we have Paul Kimball's our special guest 1799 01:14:04,360 --> 01:14:01,970 house filmmaker Michael McDonald who 1800 01:14:06,510 --> 01:14:04,370 evidently has made some money on making 1801 01:14:09,670 --> 01:14:06,520 documentary films but that should not 1802 01:14:11,620 --> 01:14:09,680 you know that should not dictate whether 1803 01:14:13,870 --> 01:14:11,630 we believe or accept them or not I mean 1804 01:14:16,780 --> 01:14:13,880 let's look at it this way even though 1805 01:14:19,330 --> 01:14:16,790 there are certain elements of television 1806 01:14:22,960 --> 01:14:19,340 news that we find polarizing the 1807 01:14:24,730 --> 01:14:22,970 mainstream Network newscasters make 1808 01:14:26,290 --> 01:14:24,740 millions of dollars a year but we never 1809 01:14:32,050 --> 01:14:26,300 assume they're just telling us lies 1810 01:14:33,910 --> 01:14:32,060 doing well I do well the whole question 1811 01:14:36,070 --> 01:14:33,920 so basically we now know what's going on 1812 01:14:39,490 --> 01:14:36,080 Paul Campbell says they're telling us 1813 01:14:41,290 --> 01:14:39,500 lies end of story well I just assumed 1814 01:14:42,850 --> 01:14:41,300 that and there I don't assume that 1815 01:14:44,260 --> 01:14:42,860 they're consciously telling us lies I 1816 01:14:46,180 --> 01:14:44,270 think that they think they're telling us 1817 01:14:47,950 --> 01:14:46,190 the truth I just assumed that they're 1818 01:14:50,440 --> 01:14:47,960 probably not telling us the truth now 1819 01:14:52,270 --> 01:14:50,450 I'm always happy to be proven wrong and 1820 01:14:54,280 --> 01:14:52,280 I usually am but I think it's safer that 1821 01:14:56,590 --> 01:14:54,290 we start on the assumption that what 1822 01:14:57,880 --> 01:14:56,600 we're hearing might not be true and then 1823 01:14:59,710 --> 01:14:57,890 let's make sure that they can actually 1824 01:15:02,230 --> 01:14:59,720 show us that it's true as opposed to 1825 01:15:03,880 --> 01:15:02,240 just sitting there and going oh yes that 1826 01:15:06,340 --> 01:15:03,890 must be true because somebody in 1827 01:15:07,960 --> 01:15:06,350 authority said that and in the UFO stuff 1828 01:15:10,270 --> 01:15:07,970 I would say the same thing if Stan 1829 01:15:12,520 --> 01:15:10,280 Friedman I've seen this happen because 1830 01:15:14,920 --> 01:15:12,530 he has such a reputation and largely 1831 01:15:17,860 --> 01:15:14,930 well deserved he can stand in front of a 1832 01:15:20,080 --> 01:15:17,870 crowd and I'm convinced that stand in 1833 01:15:21,820 --> 01:15:20,090 front of many crowds could say up is 1834 01:15:23,290 --> 01:15:21,830 down and down is up black is white and 1835 01:15:25,480 --> 01:15:23,300 white is black and they would believe 1836 01:15:27,910 --> 01:15:25,490 him because it's Stan Friedman telling 1837 01:15:29,740 --> 01:15:27,920 them that and that's a mistake 1838 01:15:31,840 --> 01:15:29,750 you know nobody should get a free pass 1839 01:15:38,860 --> 01:15:31,850 no matter what your credentials are what 1840 01:15:41,200 --> 01:15:38,870 your record is he gets a free pass all 1841 01:15:43,060 --> 01:15:41,210 the time at these UFO conferences I've 1842 01:15:44,680 --> 01:15:43,070 listened to stand more than once and and 1843 01:15:46,630 --> 01:15:44,690 there's some times when I think Stan you 1844 01:15:49,360 --> 01:15:46,640 were the spark of the UFO world you use 1845 01:15:49,870 --> 01:15:49,370 logic in the beautiful ways and and I 1846 01:15:52,420 --> 01:15:49,880 don't 1847 01:15:53,710 --> 01:15:52,430 I couldn't characterize I cut it rather 1848 01:15:55,570 --> 01:15:53,720 than you want to use that where they I 1849 01:15:58,150 --> 01:15:55,580 couldn't characterize what he says in 1850 01:15:59,830 --> 01:15:58,160 that way I mean he does have some points 1851 01:16:02,260 --> 01:15:59,840 there's no doubt about it in a 1852 01:16:04,840 --> 01:16:02,270 technological society if you're - if 1853 01:16:05,950 --> 01:16:04,850 you're trying to you know discover a new 1854 01:16:07,090 --> 01:16:05,960 world one of the first things you're 1855 01:16:09,510 --> 01:16:07,100 going to do is you're going to test the 1856 01:16:11,880 --> 01:16:09,520 defense system so obviously you 1857 01:16:13,890 --> 01:16:11,890 would congregate around the fence 1858 01:16:15,630 --> 01:16:13,900 systems and that they would test defense 1859 01:16:17,550 --> 01:16:15,640 systems why wouldn't you wouldn't you do 1860 01:16:19,140 --> 01:16:17,560 that and you know what whether stances 1861 01:16:21,150 --> 01:16:19,150 or whether I say that's a compelling 1862 01:16:23,100 --> 01:16:21,160 very good well it's it's to a point a 1863 01:16:25,860 --> 01:16:23,110 compelling argument although I would say 1864 01:16:28,200 --> 01:16:25,870 that if the aliens can get here from 1865 01:16:31,380 --> 01:16:28,210 there and let's even assume that there 1866 01:16:33,570 --> 01:16:31,390 is the nearest possible star system they 1867 01:16:37,710 --> 01:16:33,580 are so technologically advanced beyond 1868 01:16:39,570 --> 01:16:37,720 where we are that at best their survey 1869 01:16:42,690 --> 01:16:39,580 of our defensive systems should take 1870 01:16:44,460 --> 01:16:42,700 them a day or two and then at that point 1871 01:16:46,770 --> 01:16:44,470 they would know that nothing we have can 1872 01:16:49,110 --> 01:16:46,780 actually do them any real harm except by 1873 01:16:53,520 --> 01:16:49,120 the way if they send Jeff Goldblum of 1874 01:16:57,330 --> 01:16:53,530 the 1996 PowerBook 500 and connects 1875 01:17:00,000 --> 01:16:57,340 wirelessly to the alien control system 1876 01:17:02,340 --> 01:17:00,010 and then sends a virus and that's it 1877 01:17:04,860 --> 01:17:02,350 that's all we need are you listening 1878 01:17:07,620 --> 01:17:04,870 yeah the savior of humanity Jeff 1879 01:17:09,450 --> 01:17:07,630 Goldblum and Will Smith yeah fascinating 1880 01:17:15,180 --> 01:17:09,460 I do love that movie though where this 1881 01:17:16,230 --> 01:17:15,190 what is he the defense secretary the 1882 01:17:17,460 --> 01:17:16,240 president goes well we've never 1883 01:17:18,990 --> 01:17:17,470 recovered anything in the defense 1884 01:17:22,520 --> 01:17:19,000 secretary Steph's warning to us well mr. 1885 01:17:26,520 --> 01:17:22,530 president that's not actually quite true 1886 01:17:28,680 --> 01:17:26,530 and they're actually at area 51 at 51 1887 01:17:29,640 --> 01:17:28,690 who do they have as a chief scientist at 1888 01:17:33,690 --> 01:17:29,650 area 51 1889 01:17:35,490 --> 01:17:33,700 data from generations I thought it was 1890 01:17:45,090 --> 01:17:35,500 Bob Lazar yeah I think he's playing Bob 1891 01:17:48,980 --> 01:17:45,100 Lazar when a credits minor yeah why does 1892 01:17:51,150 --> 01:17:48,990 he do these days well if you were 1893 01:17:52,650 --> 01:17:51,160 listening to one Twitter it seemed like 1894 01:17:55,410 --> 01:17:52,660 he was living in a hotel for a while but 1895 01:17:56,760 --> 01:17:55,420 I think he was just joking that business 1896 01:18:00,330 --> 01:17:56,770 was so bad that he had to live in the 1897 01:18:02,010 --> 01:18:00,340 hotel on Hollywood Bowl you know I'm 1898 01:18:03,810 --> 01:18:02,020 sure he's getting you know residual 1899 01:18:06,270 --> 01:18:03,820 checks or whatever from Star Trek see 1900 01:18:08,190 --> 01:18:06,280 the abomination ex generation I was 1901 01:18:12,330 --> 01:18:08,200 gonna say the abomination we would have 1902 01:18:14,760 --> 01:18:12,340 learned from the first yeah cuz you 1903 01:18:17,010 --> 01:18:14,770 don't know why you're living in a 1904

people have had UFO 1907 01:18:28,350 --> 01:18:25,900 experiences the weird thing is when you 1908 01:18:30,360 --> 01:18:28,360 talk I've never had one Stan's never had 1909 01:18:33,810 -->

UFO researchers 1915 01:18:50,670 --> 01:18:48,010 with a few exemptions like Don let your 1916 01:18:52,200 --> 01:18:50,680 head one write the shag card and that's 1917 01:18:54,600 --> 01:18:52,210

manner that 1923 01:19:07,920 --> 01:19:05,710 falls into the classification and then 1924 01:19:09,390 --> 01:19:07,930 you know figured out over the years it's 1925 01:19:12,960 --> 01:19:09,400 incredible still happens all the time 1926 01:19:14,430 --> 01:19:12,970 but now with YouTube internet hoaxes out 1927 01:19:16,410 --> 01:19:14,440 there but there's a lot of really 1928 01:19:20,550

01:22:49,949 seen before the fisherman 2019 01:22:54,739 --> 01:22:52,829 in the documentary and a conversation 2020 01:22:56,959 --> 01:22:54,749 that never seen anything like it before 2021 01:22:59,419 --> 01:22:56,969 the DMV search the clerk in the national 2022 01:23:01,790 --> 01:22:59,429 defense searched for several days and 2023 01:23:03,859 --> 01:23:01,800 the brought out some people Sullivan 2024 01:23:06,589 --> 01:23:03,869 would bring out some questionable stuff 2025 01:23:09,290 --> 01:23:06,599 and that was sort of the end of it the 2026 01:23:11,540 --> 01:23:09,300 military admitted that was a UFO in 2027 01:23:13,609 --> 01:23:11,550 their documents under under the fight 2028 01:23:16,429 --> 01:23:13,619 flying object the interesting thing is 2029 01:23:18,290 --> 01:23:16,439 that there was a UFO flap in 1967 all 2030 01:23:20,689 --> 01:23:18,300 across North America and in particular 2031 01:23:22,399 --> 01:23:20,699 in the fall of that year and October 4th 2032 01:23:24,830 --> 01:23:22,409 versus way didn't it smack in the middle 2033 01:23:28,219 --> 01:23:24,840 of that there's the second story in the 2034 01:23:31,159 --> 01:23:28,229 second story is 30 nautical miles up the 2035 01:23:34,159 --> 01:23:31,169 coast east in place called Shelburne 2036 01:23:36,350 --> 01:23:34,169 which was a joint us-canadian top-secret 2037 01:23:39,339 --> 01:23:36,360 military Listening Post for submarines 2038 01:23:41,270 --> 01:23:39,349 to get the submarines crew profiles 2039 01:23:43,310 --> 01:23:41,280 information that was collected to 2040 01:23:45,500 --> 01:23:43,320 identify individual Russian submarines 2041 01:23:48,529 --> 01:23:45,510 and they used what's called the Soo 2042 01:23:52,489 --> 01:23:48,539 sauce net which is under underwater 2043 01:23:54,889 --> 01:23:52,499 sano type of transponder devices they 2044 01:23:56,839 --> 01:23:54,899 can find a receiver that flexes that 2045 01:23:58,669 --> 01:23:56,849 data and it went into a head end at 2046 01:24:00,799 --> 01:23:58,679 Shelburne so there was Americans at 2047 01:24:02,779 --> 01:24:00,809 Canadians working at the space there was 2048 01:24:05,179 --> 01:24:02,789 some boat activity going on there 2049 01:24:06,949 --> 01:24:05,189 normally but all that information was 2050 01:24:09,739 --> 01:24:06,959 collected there is a sensitive place 2051 01:24:11,689 --> 01:24:09,749 from a military point of view as to key 2052 01:24:14,060 --> 01:24:11,699 strategic point of view in the Cold War 2053 01:24:16,399 --> 01:24:14,070 though one of those highly sensitive 2054 01:24:20,750 --> 01:24:16,409 areas like when for example Roswell New 2055 01:24:23,779 --> 01:24:20,760 Mexico with the bombers flooding and so 2056 01:24:25,909 --> 01:24:23,789 the other story is that and I'll just 2057 01:24:27,949 --> 01:24:25,919 tell the story as it was told was that 2058 01:24:30,439 --> 01:24:27,959 this device could potentially have 2059 01:24:33,229 --> 01:24:30,449 actually yes crash to the Chiang Harbor 2060 01:24:36,169 --> 01:24:33,239 and then limped up the coast 32 nautical 2061 01:24:38,239 --> 01:24:36,179 miles the rest off government point 2062 01:24:40,759 --> 01:24:38,249 which is where Canadian Forces station 2063 01:24:43,699 --> 01:24:40,769 shell ver and join us Canadian base was 2064 01:24:48,049 --> 01:24:43,709 located and that they were attended to 2065 01:24:50,149 --> 01:24:48,059 by Canadian and US warships 2066 01:24:53,259 --> 01:24:50,159 while a second craft showed up 2067 01:24:55,429 --> 01:24:53,269 underwater that beings were seen 2068 01:24:57,020 --> 01:24:55,439 surrounding both the crafts and some 2069 01:24:59,600 --> 01:24:57,030 sort of repair operation was taking 2070 01:25:02,719 --> 01:24:59,610 place then a lot of film footage was 2071 01:25:03,529 --> 01:25:02,729 taken that many divers had seen there 2072 01:25:07,250 --> 01:25:03,539 were great 2073 01:25:09,259 --> 01:25:07,260 being flown regularly by Royal Canadian 2074 01:25:10,640 --> 01:25:09,269 Air Force reconnaissance planes at the 2075 01:25:13,040 --> 01:25:10,650 same time a lot of military people 2076 01:25:14,750 --> 01:25:13,050 involved is a debriefing the project 2077 01:25:16,370 --> 01:25:14,760 moonbow mentioned in the United States 2078 01:25:18,020 --> 01:25:16,380 where maybe that they can be United 2079 01:25:21,379 --> 01:25:18,030 States and disease there were sightings 2080 01:25:23,450 --> 01:25:21,389 of alien creatures on land there were 2081 01:25:26,959 --> 01:25:23,460 photographs taken of lights of the night 2082 01:25:32,060 --> 01:25:26,969 of October 4 67 documented photographs a 2083 01:25:35,270 --> 01:25:32,070 lot of government paperwork traffic you 2084 01:25:37,970 --> 01:25:35,280 know was a big event Roswell where 2085 01:25:40,490 --> 01:25:37,980 bigger huh yeah the nice thing about Sag 2086 01:25:44,060 --> 01:25:40,500 Harbor is as opposed to Roswell it took 2087 01:25:45,560 --> 01:25:44,070 place 20 years after Roswell so when the 2088 01:25:48,140 --> 01:25:45,570 investigation is taking place you're a 2089 01:25:50,240 --> 01:25:48,150 little closer in time to when it 2090 01:25:53,990 --> 01:25:50,250 actually occurred there's also as Mike 2091 01:25:56,180 --> 01:25:54,000 mentioned a much more voluminous paper 2092 01:25:58,729 --> 01:25:56,190 trail official paper trail that can be 2093 01:26:01,310 --> 01:25:58,739 documented with shag harbour there's 2094 01:26:04,939 --> 01:26:01,320 there's no question about the witnesses 2095 01:26:06,740 --> 01:26:04,949 the that actually saw the UFO in the sky 2096 01:26:08,450 --> 01:26:06,750 not we're not talking about one or two 2097 01:26:11,149 --> 01:26:08,460 people who claim to recovered records 2098 01:26:12,859 --> 01:26:11,159 you know multiple independent witnesses 2099 01:26:14,899 --> 01:26:12,869 who could all corroborate what the other 2100 01:26:16,250 --> 01:26:14,909 people were saying about what they saw 2101 01:26:18,319 --> 01:26:16,260 in the sky and what happened when it 2102 01:26:22,160 --> 01:26:18,329 went down into the harbor including as I 2103 01:26:24,620 --> 01:26:22,170 recall Mike our CMP officers witnesses 2104 01:26:26,600 --> 01:26:24,630 so I've written about whether or not 2105 01:26:29,240 --> 01:26:26,610 police officers make better witnesses 2106 01:26:31,970 --> 01:26:29,250 but and I don't think they do inherently 2107 01:26:34,879 --> 01:26:31,980 but I also believe that police officers 2108 01:26:36,799 --> 01:26:34,889 are generally honest people who will at 2109 01:26:40,100 --> 01:26:36,809 least honestly report what it is they 2110 01:26:42,049 --> 01:26:40,110 think they're seeing yeah and then 2111 01:26:44,060 --> 01:26:42,059 you've got as Don led you will say one 2112 01:26:46,490 --> 01:26:44,070 of the weirdest things in UFO history 2113 01:26:48,649 --> 01:26:46,500 usually what happens is the witnesses 2114 01:26:50,660 --> 01:26:48,659 will describe what they see as a UFO and 2115 01:26:53,180 --> 01:26:50,670 the government agencies will come in and 2116 01:26:55,100 --> 01:26:53,190 offer an explanation which is in fact 2117 01:26:56,959 --> 01:26:55,110 what happened at Roswell they witnesses 2118 01:26:59,330 --> 01:26:56,969 say we you know we think we got an alien 2119 01:27:01,009 --> 01:26:59,340 spacecraft maybe and the government says 2120 01:27:02,660 --> 01:27:01,019 well not with something else in shag 2121 01:27:04,609 --> 01:27:02,670 harbour it's the exact opposite 2122 01:27:06,740 --> 01:27:04,619 most of the witnesses thought they were 2123 01:27:08,899 --> 01:27:06,750 seeing some sort of crash of an airplane 2124 01:27:10,759 --> 01:27:08,909 in fact as I as I recall that's how it 2125 01:27:13,279 --> 01:27:10,769 was first reported that a plane had 2126 01:27:14,870 --> 01:27:13,289 crashed in the harbor actually though it 2127 01:27:16,490 --> 01:27:14,880 wasn't perfect for that way because it 2128 01:27:17,240 --> 01:27:16,500 wasn't reported to the next day the 2129 01:27:20,030 --> 01:27:17,250 first report 2130 01:27:22,010 --> 01:27:20,040 is something concrete shag harbour and 2131 01:27:24,350 --> 01:27:22,020 it was really but the fact that 2132 01:27:27,700 --> 01:27:24,360 they had already concluded it was in the 2133 01:27:31,700 --> 01:27:27,710 earth plane so the first the first 2134 01:27:35,540 --> 01:27:31,710 release was actually quoting the DND as 2135 01:27:36,920 --> 01:27:35,550 saying that it was no exactly that's the 2136 01:27:39,020 --> 01:27:36,930 point I'm trying to make the witnesses 2137 01:27:41,300 --> 01:27:39,030 themselves when they first reported it 2138 01:27:42,830 --> 01:27:41,310 and I'm pretty sure this was in my film 2139 01:27:44,570 --> 01:27:42,840 best evidence because shag was one of 2140 01:27:45,650 --> 01:27:44,580 the ten best cases and we had done 2141 01:27:47,870 --> 01:27:45,660 talking about it 2142 01:27:49,430 --> 01:27:47,880 the witnesses reported it as they 2143 01:27:52,040 --> 01:27:49,440 thought it was an aircraft it was the 2144 01:27:53,690 --> 01:27:52,050 government and this is this is this rare 2145 01:27:55,130 --> 01:27:53,700 thing it was the military in the 2146 01:27:58,010 --> 01:27:55,140 government that actually characterized 2147 01:27:59,570 --> 01:27:58,020 it as a UFO which is which is kind of 2148 01:28:02,330 --> 01:27:59,580 counterintuitive to how things usually 2149 01:28:03,860 --> 01:28:02,340 roll in these cases well lately and 2150 01:28:10,040 --> 01:28:03,870 Roswell the first press release was 2151 01:28:12,830 --> 01:28:10,050 actually it's a UFO in a sense that's 2152 01:28:14,270 --> 01:28:12,840 the witnesses and in the case you know 2153 01:28:16,490 --> 01:28:14,280 Walter Haught putting out a press 2154 01:28:18,260 --> 01:28:16,500 release saying it's UFO but it's not the 2155 01:28:20,090 --> 01:28:18,270 official government response whereas the 2156 01:28:22,190 --> 01:28:20,100 official government response at shag as 2157 01:28:24,410 --> 01:28:22,200 seen in the documents was very clearly 2158 01:28:27,620 --> 01:28:24,420 you know this is unidentified flying 2159 01:28:30,650 --> 01:28:27,630 object and Canada has a has actually a 2160 01:28:33,220 --> 01:28:30,660 corollary to that with Wilbur Smith when 2161 01:28:36,680 --> 01:28:33,230 Robert Smith had is the UFO research 2162 01:28:39,200 --> 01:28:36,690 detection station just west of Ottawa 2163 01:28:42,140 --> 01:28:39,210 and the detection instruments including 2164 01:28:46,100 --> 01:28:42,150 magnetic anomaly and field disruption 2165 01:28:48,500 --> 01:28:46,110 and all the radio radio receivers were 2166 01:28:50,120 --> 01:28:48,510 tripped unequivocally and their mind 2167 01:28:52,070 --> 01:28:50,130 states that something very unusual had 2168 01:28:55,700 --> 01:28:52,080 passed overhead they released and press 2169 01:28:57,050 --> 01:28:55,710 release to in the same manner and ha you 2170 01:29:00,050 --> 01:28:57,060 know when I was going through through 2171 01:29:01,490 --> 01:29:00,060 channels saying detective you opposed 2172 01:29:03,140 --> 01:29:01,500 you remember that yeah well I don't 2173 01:29:05,540 --> 01:29:03,150 remember personally but ya know I've 2174 01:29:07,340 --> 01:29:05,550 done a little research no no I was there 2175 01:29:10,610 -->

01:30:16,429 calling me shag harbour UFO incident and 2195 01:30:21,310 --> 01:30:18,739 these two gentlemen both agree this case 2196 01:30:23,319 --> 01:30:21,320 has more compelling evidence than 2197 01:30:25,929 --> 01:30:23,329 Roswell now what does the Canadian 2198 01:30:28,629 --> 01:30:25,939 government say today about this case 2199 01:30:30,279 --> 01:30:28,639 well I'd like to just speak up right 2200 01:30:33,489 --> 01:30:30,289 here because I've been talking to Chris 2201 01:30:35,290 --> 01:30:33,499 Stiles who is the original investigator 2202 01:30:37,509 --> 01:30:35,300 you know along with Don ledger but 2203 01:30:39,520 --> 01:30:37,519 primarily Chris it's done the bulldog 2204 01:30:42,069 --> 01:30:39,530 work of trying to figure out Jay ever 2205 01:30:43,919 --> 01:30:42,079 and continues to do so and Chris even in 2206 01:30:47,589 --> 01:30:43,929 the last couple of years of had 2207 01:30:51,160 --> 01:30:47,599 discussions with with pilots who had 2208 01:30:52,929 --> 01:30:51,170 witnessed UFOs at night he's had a lot 2209 01:30:55,629 --> 01:30:52,939 of corroborating information happen with 2210 01:30:58,089 --> 01:30:55,639 regards to the lighthouse and the logs 2211 01:31:00,250 --> 01:30:58,099 of the Coast Guard which may have been 2212 01:31:02,679 --> 01:31:00,260 altered a lot of weirdness has gone on 2213 01:31:04,689 --> 01:31:02,689 and a lot of corroboration the continual 2214 01:31:07,149 --> 01:31:04,699 corroboration of her earlier testimony 2215 01:31:09,520 --> 01:31:07,159 and evidence still stands up and like 2216 01:31:11,560 --> 01:31:09,530 Chris said back in you know 2001 we did 2217 01:31:14,859 --> 01:31:11,570 that documentary that you know it 2218 01:31:17,290 --> 01:31:14,869 continues to new information continues 2219 01:31:19,239 --> 01:31:17,300 to come out and the story just gets you 2220 01:31:21,759 --> 01:31:19,249 know stronger and stronger and here 2221 01:31:23,709 --> 01:31:21,769 there's 2010 and in the last two years 2222 01:31:26,729 --> 01:31:23,719 you know he's talked to young people you 2223 01:31:29,169 --> 01:31:26,739 know people who were flying in American 2224 01:31:30,580 --> 01:31:29,179 transport machines that night over the 2225 01:31:33,669 --> 01:31:30,590 Gulf of Maine you had Close Encounters 2226 01:31:35,969 --> 01:31:33,679 of UFOs they correlated in time you know 2227 01:31:38,410 --> 01:31:35,979 obviously that night of October 4th 1967 2228 01:31:40,239 --> 01:31:38,420 so this story keeps on going 2229 01:31:41,709 --> 01:31:40,249 you know Roswell hasn't had any new 2230 01:31:43,719 --> 01:31:41,719 information come up other than new 2231 01:31:46,270 --> 01:31:43,729 theories god knows how long 2232 01:31:47,919 --> 01:31:46,280 yeah and I think that's the 20-year time 2233 01:31:49,600 --> 01:31:47,929 lag between the two cases the 2234 01:31:51,790 --> 01:31:49,610 information whether you believe it or 2235 01:31:53,890 --> 01:31:51,800 not for Roswell was going to be coming 2236 01:31:56,140 --> 01:31:53,900 out of the nineteen the 70s in the early 2237 01:31:57,759 --> 01:31:56,150 1980s and then after that if you if 2238 01:31:59,949 --> 01:31:57,769 you're a witness to Roswell and you 2239 01:32:01,779 --> 01:31:59,959 haven't surfaced by 1990 with all the 2240 01:32:04,179 --> 01:32:01,789 media attention it said you're probably 2241 01:32:05,919 --> 01:32:04,189 not gonna surface I am willing to make 2242 01:32:07,660 --> 01:32:05,929 I'm willing to make an exception for one 2243 01:32:10,209 --> 01:32:07,670 or two people it might be very very shy 2244 01:32:12,549 --> 01:32:10,219 but by and large you're probably gonna 2245 01:32:14,439 --> 01:32:12,559 have all the at least witness testimony 2246 01:32:15,969 --> 01:32:14,449 out there and anybody would wonder and 2247 01:32:17,000 --> 01:32:15,979 after that you'd have to be pretty 2248 01:32:19,520 --> 01:32:17,010 suspect 2249 01:32:21,800 --> 01:32:19,530 with shag the story really only broke 2250 01:32:23,540 --> 01:32:21,810 when Don and Chris you know again 2251 01:32:25,760 --> 01:32:23,550 resurfaced when they wrote the book and 2252 01:32:27,350 --> 01:32:25,770 you put your film out and we're dealing 2253 01:32:30,110 --> 01:32:27,360 with sort of the first still the first 2254 01:32:32,150 --> 01:32:30,120 10 or 11 years of the investigation of 2255 01:32:33,860 --> 01:32:32,160 shag and a lot of the people that would 2256 01:32:36,920 --> 01:32:33,870 have been involved would they be older 2257 01:32:40,160 --> 01:32:36,930 now in their 60s maybe 70s but there's 2258 01:32:41,930 --> 01:32:40,170 some people yeah the thing that I don't 2259 01:32:44,570 --> 01:32:41,940 think you mentioned Mike then if you did 2260 01:32:47,060 --> 01:32:44,580 I missed it it wasn't just shag Harbor 2261 01:32:48,890 --> 01:32:47,070 he was cited something was cited flying 2262 01:32:52,100 --> 01:32:48,900 over by an awful lot of people Halifax 2263 01:32:54,830 --> 01:32:52,110 where Stiles it was 13 years old and 2264 01:32:57,110 --> 01:32:54,840 that night he had an extreme close 2265 01:32:59,120 --> 01:32:57,120 encounter with the UFO down at the 2266 01:33:02,480 --> 01:32:59,130 Dartmouth waterfront the same night and 2267 01:33:04,460 --> 01:33:02,490 that's what obviously motivated him gone 2268 01:33:06,590 --> 01:33:04,470 ledger head I think wasn't that night 2269 01:33:08,000 --> 01:33:06,600 but within that week he was selling 2270 01:33:10,250 --> 01:33:08,010 musical instruments and on the road 2271 01:33:11,960 --> 01:33:10,260 these are the so surely an experience 2272 01:33:15,350 --> 01:33:11,970 too so both those guys had personal 2273 01:33:18,580 --> 01:33:15,360 experiences from 67 oh yeah one of my 2274 01:33:21,710 --> 01:33:18,590 best friends is he's I think he's 51 and 2275 01:33:24,260 --> 01:33:21,720 he as he as a kid he remembers seeing it 2276 01:33:26,150 --> 01:33:24,270 because he lived here in Halifax knee he 2277 01:33:29,420 --> 01:33:26,160 remembers it clear as a day he tells me 2278 01:33:30,860 --> 01:33:29,430 all these years later seeing a UFO fly 2279 01:33:33,140 --> 01:33:30,870 over Halifax and it you know eventually 2280 01:33:34,610 --> 01:33:33,150 on its way down to Shelburne Sag Harbor 2281 01:33:36,410 --> 01:33:34,620 which is about you know if you have to 2282 01:33:39,320 --> 01:33:36,420 drive two and a half hours from Halifax 2283 01:33:41,030 --> 01:33:39,330 so whatever was it was not only sighted 2284 01:33:42,470 --> 01:33:41,040 that's part of the story that's often 2285 01:33:44,690 --> 01:33:42,480 missed it wasn't just sighted in Sag 2286 01:33:46,790 --> 01:33:44,700 Harbor it was sighted in other areas of 2287 01:33:48,680 --> 01:33:46,800 the province before it hit shag harbour 2288 01:33:51,200 --> 01:33:48,690 and for Americans that would be kind of 2289 01:33:53,360 --> 01:33:51,210 be like to use Roswell as an example 2290 01:33:55,970 --> 01:33:53,370 people in Albuquerque seeing something 2291 01:33:58,310 --> 01:33:55,980 that then is seen or crashes in Roswell 2292 01:34:00,620 --> 01:33:58,320 you know two and a half hours later way 2293 01:34:02,270 --> 01:34:00,630 by Road so that's the kind of distance 2294 01:34:04,580 --> 01:34:02,280 you're dealing with yeah it just didn't 2295 01:34:06,890 --> 01:34:04,590 pop in it flew you know thrown yeah 2296 01:34:09,290 --> 01:34:06,900 there were sightings all the way from 2297 01:34:11,840 --> 01:34:09,300 Northwest Territories all through 2298 01:34:14,330 --> 01:34:11,850 central Canada and Eastern Canada and 2299 01:34:17,030 --> 01:34:14,340 the Maritimes by pilots and other 2300 01:34:19,400 --> 01:34:17,040 individuals and and that night there was 2301 01:34:21,290 --> 01:34:19,410 a flurry of lights and UFO activities 2302 01:34:24,860 --> 01:34:21,300 all the way from Gatineau Nova Scotia 2303 01:34:27,680 --> 01:34:24,870 but the north western tip Digby neck and 2304 01:34:29,800 --> 01:34:27,690 then down shell burned and then you know 2305 01:34:31,630 --> 01:34:29,810 there's a photograph that was taken in 2306 01:34:33,400 --> 01:34:31,640 bird by a photographer was taking 2307 01:34:35,110 --> 01:34:33,410 picture of an old both of you burning 2308 01:34:37,030 --> 01:34:35,120 and it's a beautiful photograph it's 2309 01:34:38,740 --> 01:34:37,040 just beautiful I mean it's a time-lapse 2310 01:34:40,780 --> 01:34:38,750 it's five minutes so you see the stars 2311 01:34:43,870 --> 01:34:40,790 are all streak the UFOs are in 2312 01:34:46,390 --> 01:34:43,880 geosynchronous exact precise position 2313 01:34:50,740 --> 01:34:46,400 three of them yeah and it's the NVIDIA 2314 01:34:52,540 --> 01:34:50,750 pennant stayed geosynchronous the 2315 01:34:56,020 --> 01:34:52,550 interesting thing comparing again shag 2316 01:34:57,130 --> 01:34:56,030 to Roswell is as far as I know and 2317 01:35:00,220 --> 01:34:57,140 correct me if I'm wrong 2318 01:35:02,650 --> 01:35:00,230 Mike the government has never offered a 2319 01:35:05,470 --> 01:35:02,660 definitive explanation for what happened 2320 01:35:07,180 --> 01:35:05,480 at shag whereas with Roswell whether you 2321 01:35:09,640 --> 01:35:07,190 believe it or not the government has 2322 01:35:11,530 --> 01:35:09,650 trotted out a very large report saying 2323 01:35:13,270 --> 01:35:11,540 well it was project mogul and here's all 2324 01:35:14,440 --> 01:35:13,280 the evidence we have so at least you 2325 01:35:18,130 --> 01:35:14,450 know the government took a position on 2326 01:35:20,200 --> 01:35:18,140 that in Canada 43 years later because I 2327 01:35:23,320 --> 01:35:20,210 was born in 67 I know exactly what that 2328 01:35:25,030 --> 01:35:23,330 number is sadly 43 years later there's 2329 01:35:30,400 --> 01:35:25,040 never been an official explanation as 2330 01:35:32,740 --> 01:35:30,410 far as I know they sorry that will be 2331 01:35:35,830 --> 01:35:32,750 lost on anyone who is not a Canadian but 2332 01:35:37,750 --> 01:35:35,840 that's that's when our prime minister 2333 01:35:40,240 --> 01:35:37,760 can basically suspend democracy in 2334 01:35:47,170 --> 01:35:40,250 Canada which he does it's also a nice 2335 01:35:49,420 --> 01:35:47,180 light snack only in Canada pity yes 2336 01:35:51,160 --> 01:35:49,430 we're hearing some Canadian jokes here 2337 01:35:52,420 --> 01:35:51,170 ladies and gentlemen I do not understand 2338 01:35:54,430 --> 01:35:52,430 anything they're saying they could be 2339 01:35:58,300 --> 01:35:54,440 doing all sorts of weird stuff and I 2340 01:36:00,100 --> 01:35:58,310 have no clue but the point is Jean every 2341 01:36:01,870 --> 01:36:00,110 Canadian almost every Canadian lives 2342 01:36:04,600 --> 01:36:01,880 eventually in Arizona you must know 2343 01:36:06,220 --> 01:36:04,610 millions of them I do yeah all the 2344 01:36:08,590 --> 01:36:06,230 snowbirds they get out when they retain 2345 01:36:11,350 --> 01:36:08,600 the Canadian you should check yeah I 2346 01:36:12,370 --> 01:36:11,360 mean the Arizona is the 11th Canadian 2347 01:36:15,220 --> 01:36:12,380 province as far as we're concerned 2348 01:36:16,720 --> 01:36:15,230 that's where they all go so why aren't 2349 01:36:18,430 --> 01:36:16,730 you down here and we're doing the show 2350 01:36:19,990 --> 01:36:18,440 live and you're sitting across from me 2351 01:36:21,940 --> 01:36:20,000 why aren't you sitting across from me I 2352 01:36:23,620 --> 01:36:21,950 wish I was because then I'd be in 2353 01:36:26,080 --> 01:36:23,630 Arizona where it's presumably a lot 2354 01:36:28,450 --> 01:36:26,090 warmer than it is Nell effects today but 2355 01:36:31,630 --> 01:36:28,460 I'm just raining today in Arizona and 2356 01:36:33,370 --> 01:36:31,640 the temperature was in the 50s well the 2357 01:36:36,850 --> 01:36:33,380 temperature was in the 30s here today so 2358 01:36:39,130 --> 01:36:36,860 there you go highway yes yes you do 2359 01:36:41,310 --> 01:36:39,140 except we didn't have the rain but I 2360 01:36:43,800 --> 01:36:41,320 think it's important 2361 01:36:45,810 --> 01:36:43,810 case my final word on this I don't want 2362 01:36:49,109 --> 01:36:45,820 to ramble on but I think it is there's 2363 01:36:51,600 --> 01:36:49,119 an American sort of centric viewpoint 2364 01:36:53,910 --> 01:36:51,610 particularly amongst Americans when it 2365 01:36:56,010 --> 01:36:53,920 comes to the UFO phenomenon so Roswell 2366 01:36:57,899 --> 01:36:56,020 is such a big case even though all of 2367 01:37:00,180 --> 01:36:57,909 the elements in Roswell pretty much 2368 01:37:03,419 --> 01:37:00,190 exists in shag only better I think and 2369 01:37:05,160 --> 01:37:03,429 you know shag is largely unknown outside 2370 01:37:07,200 --> 01:37:05,170 of Canada and I would suggest even 2371 01:37:09,330 --> 01:37:07,210 within candidates it's not as well-known 2372 01:37:11,189 --> 01:37:09,340 as it could be and that's the case I 2373 01:37:14,129 --> 01:37:11,199 think with a lot of really good UFO 2374 01:37:17,910 --> 01:37:14,139 cases the 1976 Iranian jet fighter case 2375 01:37:21,720 --> 01:37:17,920 in in Iran again largely unknown outside 2376 01:37:22,979 --> 01:37:21,730 of the sort of core UFO field because 2377 01:37:26,729 --> 01:37:22,989 people are so busy talking about 2378 01:37:28,859 --> 01:37:26,739 Kecksburg or Roswell or god forbid Aztec 2379 01:37:31,800 --> 01:37:28,869 but all of them being cases that took 2380 01:37:33,359 --> 01:37:31,810 place where in the United States and I 2381 01:37:35,160 --> 01:37:33,369 think that's that's a shame because it 2382 01:37:37,140 --> 01:37:35,170 sort of puts this veneer of well it's 2383 01:37:38,490 --> 01:37:37,150 just an American thing right and the 2384 01:37:40,530 --> 01:37:38,500 rest of the world then says well it's 2385 01:37:42,450 --> 01:37:40,540 just those crazy Americans whereas in 2386 01:37:45,540 --> 01:37:42,460 the truth it's a it's a worldwide 2387 01:37:47,040 --> 01:37:45,550 phenomenon happening everywhere and I 2388 01:37:48,859 --> 01:37:47,050 think it's important to never lose sight 2389 01:37:51,180 --> 01:37:48,869 of that in cases like shag harbour and 2390 01:37:53,850 --> 01:37:51,190 filmmakers like Mike making films about 2391 01:37:55,589 --> 01:37:53,860 cases like shag harbour remind us of 2392 01:37:57,720 --> 01:37:55,599 that and I think that's very important 2393 01:38:01,350 --> 01:37:57,730 Mike was this film shown in the United 2394 01:38:04,169 --> 01:38:01,360 States no actually my first broadcaster 2395 01:38:07,919 --> 01:38:04,179 was space network in Canada and then 2396 01:38:10,770 --> 01:38:07,929 they got then we sold it to discovery UK 2397 01:38:13,020 --> 01:38:10,780 now discovery UK is not just the United 2398 01:38:15,419 --> 01:38:13,030 Kingdom so then they did a you know 2399 01:38:19,109 --> 01:38:15,429 Eastern European translations of it so 2400 01:38:21,120 --> 01:38:19,119 Europe the United Kingdom and Canada but 2401 01:38:23,520 --> 01:38:21,130 not the United States so I guess we're 2402 01:38:25,439 --> 01:38:23,530 not helping I'm not helping I'm helping 2403 01:38:26,819 --> 01:38:25,449 because you're on the show and even 2404 01:38:28,200 --> 01:38:26,829 though we originated in America we have 2405 01:38:29,490 --> 01:38:28,210 a worldwide audience and one of the 2406 01:38:32,430 --> 01:38:29,500 things we've tried to do in the power 2407 01:38:34,319 --> 01:38:32,440 cast is to emphasize the fact that the 2408 01:38:35,910 --> 01:38:34,329 UFO phenomenon and as a matter of fact 2409 01:38:37,740 --> 01:38:35,920 all the paranormal things that we cover 2410 01:38:40,530 --> 01:38:37,750 happen around the world and certainly 2411 01:38:42,510 --> 01:38:40,540 Paul kept alive because we were talking 2412 01:38:44,550 --> 01:38:42,520 to guests on a previous session from the 2413 01:38:46,800 --> 01:38:44,560 UK we've just had a session with 2414 01:38:48,750 --> 01:38:46,810 Christopher O'Brien on animal 2415 01:38:51,660 --> 01:38:48,760 mutilations where one of our guests was 2416 01:38:53,490 --> 01:38:51,670 a uk-based researcher we've talked to AJ 2417 01:38:53,820 --> 01:38:53,500 curve aired in Brazil we've talked to 2418 01:38:55,680 --> 01:38:53,830 every 2419 01:38:58,200 --> 01:38:55,690 searchers from Australia we're trying to 2420 01:39:00,510 --> 01:38:58,210 emphasize the fact that this happens 2421 01:39:01,920 --> 01:39:00,520 around the world I'll make a pledge I'm 2422 01:39:04,100 --> 01:39:01,930 gonna make a pledge on I'm gonna say it 2423 01:39:07,050 --> 01:39:04,110 out there to the wide public I said 2424 01:39:08,820 --> 01:39:07,060 distribution of small documentary films 2425 01:39:11,160 --> 01:39:08,830 first of all is not an easy thing as 2426 01:39:12,450 --> 01:39:11,170 Paul would definitely say and even when 2427 01:39:14,580 --> 01:39:12,460 you do get a distribution bill the 2428 01:39:17,760 --> 01:39:14,590 actual distribution of the product can 2429 01:39:19,410 --> 01:39:17,770 be you know less than satisfied so what 2430 01:39:21,990 --> 01:39:19,420 I'm going to do is I'm going to take all 2431 01:39:24,780 --> 01:39:22,000 of my UFO films and I'm going to put 2432 01:39:25,950 --> 01:39:24,790 them available for viewing on YouTube 2433 01:39:27,720 --> 01:39:25,960 which means that people have to watch 2434 01:39:30,060 --> 01:39:27,730 them I guess right now in 10 minutes 2435 01:39:30,480 --> 01:39:30,070 chunks and so that will solve the 2436 01:39:33,300 --> 01:39:30,490 problem 2437 01:39:38,520 --> 01:39:33,310 you know of getting a hold of watching 2438 01:39:40,650 --> 01:39:38,530 you know the shaky distribution no you 2439 01:39:43,140 --> 01:39:40,660 know it just doesn't it's it actually 2440 01:39:45,510 --> 01:39:43,150 cost me more money and it's more of a 2441 01:39:49,200 --> 01:39:45,520 pain in the butt than it's worth at the 2442 01:39:51,840 --> 01:39:49,210 BFI you know it would cost me money to 2443 01:39:53,640 --> 01:39:51,850 do it and people write me and they ask 2444 01:39:55,560 --> 01:39:53,650 for copies of DVDs and I don't even 2445 01:39:57,390 --> 01:39:55,570 charge them I send them copy baby babies 2446 01:39:59,610 --> 01:39:57,400 and I'd rather just sort of put it out 2447 01:40:02,430 --> 01:39:59,620 there I've made my money from from the 2448 01:40:04,680 --> 01:40:02,440 films you know realistically they don't 2449 01:40:05,940 --> 01:40:04,690 bring in that much cash you know Famous 2450 01:40:08,280 --> 01:40:05,950 Monsters a slightly different scenario 2451 01:40:10,170 --> 01:40:08,290 and I have a bona fide distributor 2452 01:40:12,030 --> 01:40:10,180 that's handling you know the European 2453 01:40:13,530 --> 01:40:12,040 sales but in North America is it the hot 2454 01:40:18,570 --> 01:40:13,540 nut and crack but it has the 2455 01:40:20,340 --> 01:40:18,580 distribution yeah the US is a tough 2456 01:40:22,680 --> 01:40:20,350 market to crack for anybody who's not 2457 01:40:24,480 --> 01:40:22,690 from the US you know for a country I 2458 01:40:27,540 --> 01:40:24,490 love America don't get me wrong but for 2459 01:40:28,980 --> 01:40:27,550 a country that seemingly all about free 2460 01:40:31,470 --> 01:40:28,990 trade and you know all that sort of 2461 01:40:32,790 --> 01:40:31,480 stuff it's a very protectionist country 2462 01:40:35,790 --> 01:40:32,800 when it comes to the entertainment 2463 01:40:38,520 --> 01:40:35,800 industry very protectionist in the sense 2464 01:40:40,080 --> 01:40:38,530 that very closed-minded you know if we 2465 01:40:42,150 --> 01:40:40,090 haven't made it we don't necessarily 2466 01:40:43,740 --> 01:40:42,160 want to see it and I think you know 2467 01:40:46,440 --> 01:40:43,750 that's a shame it is Mike's quite right 2468 01:40:49,110 --> 01:40:46,450 it's it's relatively easy to sell our 2469 01:40:51,540 --> 01:40:49,120 films with a good distributor into other 2470 01:40:53,490 --> 01:40:51,550 countries like best evidence aired in 2471 01:40:56,010 --> 01:40:53,500 New Zealand on TV and Zedd for instance 2472 01:40:58,830 --> 01:40:56,020 but getting into the u.s. that's 2473 01:41:01,530 --> 01:40:58,840 difficult and the shame is a lot of 2474 01:41:03,000 --> 01:41:01,540 shows gene like yours and others a lot 2475 01:41:04,590 --> 01:41:03,010 of the listeners are Americans and then 2476 01:41:05,180 --> 01:41:04,600 they somebody just on the pair of cast 2477 01:41:06,800 --> 01:41:05,190 forms 2478 01:41:09,020 --> 01:41:06,810 had this thread about where can i buy 2479 01:41:10,460 --> 01:41:09,030 best evidence and I said well you can't 2480 01:41:12,620 --> 01:41:10,470 even buy it from me I don't even have a 2481 01:41:15,320 --> 01:41:12,630 copy I mean I can take the master and go 2482 01:41:17,210 --> 01:41:15,330 make a DVD for myself but I don't have a 2483 01:41:18,920 --> 01:41:17,220 copy sitting around in the house it's 2484 01:41:22,670 --> 01:41:18,930 it's been going through distribution 2485 01:41:24,860 --> 01:41:22,680 hell so to try and even get it on DVD is 2486 01:41:26,720 --> 01:41:24,870 difficult to get it on television in the 2487 01:41:29,090 --> 01:41:26,730 US all I can say is I would

all concentrated 2570 01:44:54,870 --> 01:44:52,570 a small number of owners on everything 2571 01:44:58,470 --> 01:44:54,880 universe alone side play that's right 2572 01:45:02,310 --> 01:44:58,480

work they've done 2578 01:45:14,580 --> 01:45:12,820 and the films will be seen and I'm doing 2579 01:45:16,920 --> 01:45:14,590 this unsolicited they didn't ask me to 2580 01:45:20,210 --> 01:45:16,930 do this by the way by the way Michael 2581 01:45:23,070 --> 01:45:20,220 you owe me well we don't go into that 2582 01:45:25,380 --> 01:45:23,080 you can have 20% of whatever we make 2583 01:45:31,620 --> 01:45:25,390 Jean which will be virtually nothing I 2584 01:45:36,540 --> 01:45:31,630 would just be happy no no no no okay 2585 01:45:38,490 --> 01:45:36,550 well that Lemberg has Bobby I'll send 2586 01:45:40,590 --> 01:45:38,500 you a copy of best evidence most of best 2587 01:45:42,570 --> 01:45:40,600 evidence I like Mike I put it up on 2588 01:45:44,010 --> 01:45:42,580 YouTube but you know it's all I think 2589 01:45:45,990 --> 01:45:44,020 it's always best if you see it on 2590 01:45:47,729 --> 01:45:46,000 television which is where it was meant 2591 01:45:50,940 --> 01:45:47,739 to be seen and said of ten minute chunks 2592 01:45:53,280 --> 01:45:50,950 so you can see it as fronts in its 2593 01:45:54,930 --> 01:45:53,290 continuity in context and actually you 2594 01:45:57,390 --> 01:45:54,940 know frankly the pictures better to 2595 01:45:59,550 --> 01:45:57,400 ascertain that could deal with Netflix 2596 01:46:02,520 --> 01:45:59,560 for something like that you can make all 2597 01:46:05,340 --> 01:46:02,530 sorts of deals but these people talk to 2598 01:46:07,680 --> 01:46:05,350 distributors and not filmmakers so it's 2599 01:46:09,270 --> 01:46:07,690 very hard to distribute your film if you 2600 01:46:11,310 --> 01:46:09,280 don't have a distributor now I for all 2601 01:46:13,290 --> 01:46:11,320 of my films I now have distributors so I 2602 01:46:15,270 --> 01:46:13,300 think you'll actually start to see best 2603 01:46:16,590 --> 01:46:15,280 evidence do you some of the other UFO 2604 01:46:19,770 --> 01:46:16,600 films are actually on 2605 01:46:21,240 --> 01:46:19,780 Stan Friedman is real is on YouTube in 2606 01:46:23,850 --> 01:46:21,250 its entirety from start to finish 2607 01:46:25,920 --> 01:46:23,860 because my distributor paranormal media 2608 01:46:27,900 --> 01:46:25,930 put it up there and they make money off 2609 01:46:29,850 --> 01:46:27,910 advertising and stuff like that but 2610 01:46:31,110 --> 01:46:29,860 here's the crazy thing you know we're 2611 01:46:32,850 --> 01:46:31,120 sort of off topic but I think it's 2612 01:46:34,500 --> 01:46:32,860 important for people to realize when 2613 01:46:36,780 --> 01:46:34,510 they put that up there I went on YouTube 2614 01:46:39,510 --> 01:46:36,790 and I took a look and some of the 2615 01:46:41,250 --> 01:46:39,520 comments people were making is well you 2616 01:46:43,170 --> 01:46:41,260 know I don't watch this because there's 2617 01:46:45,420 --> 01:46:43,180 ads on it and I shouldn't have to watch 2618 01:46:47,430 --> 01:46:45,430 ads on YouTube nothing you don't get 2619 01:46:49,380 --> 01:46:47,440 anything for free people I'm sorry 2620 01:46:50,820 --> 01:46:49,390 people have to make money distributors 2621 01:46:52,620 --> 01:46:50,830 have to make money filmmakers have to 2622 01:46:55,650 --> 01:46:52,630 make money which means you might have to 2623 01:46:57,390 --> 01:46:55,660 sit through a few ads advertisements in 2624 01:46:59,340 --> 01:46:57,400 order to watch my film in its entirety 2625 01:47:00,870 --> 01:46:59,350 and I was just gobsmacked when I saw 2626 01:47:02,790 --> 01:47:00,880 that when I saw person after person 2627 01:47:04,800 --> 01:47:02,800 complaining that they had to sit and 2628 01:47:06,810 --> 01:47:04,810 watch ads on YouTube well then don't 2629 01:47:08,670 --> 01:47:06,820 watch the film I would say to them but 2630 01:47:10,350 --> 01:47:08,680 don't ruin it for everybody else then 2631 01:47:12,120 --> 01:47:10,360 there that's my one little filmmaker 2632 01:47:13,020 --> 01:47:12,130 moment where I say you know sometimes 2633 01:47:14,910 --> 01:47:13,030 you get what you deserve 2634 01:47:17,250 --> 01:47:14,920 well I think it's come to the philosophy 2635 01:47:19,260 --> 01:47:17,260 now that we have a DVR and we just 2636 01:47:21,570 --> 01:47:19,270 record the shows and as a matter of fact 2637 01:47:23,370 --> 01:47:21,580 other shows are really good they get a 2638 01:47:25,710 --> 01:47:23,380 lousy rating and then four million 2639 01:47:27,660 --> 01:47:25,720 people are seeing them on a DVR but 2640 01:47:30,300 --> 01:47:27,670 they're skipping past the commercials of 2641 01:47:32,280 --> 01:47:30,310 course I do that too so I can't stand 2642 01:47:33,750 --> 01:47:32,290 these horrible Windows 7 commercials 2643 01:47:36,030 --> 01:47:33,760 from Microsoft that's the point 2644 01:47:37,500 --> 01:47:36,040 I know filmmakers and people in the film 2645 01:47:39,600 --> 01:47:37,510 industry who down I you know they 2646 01:47:40,920 --> 01:47:39,610 battlestar galactica it was an example I 2647 01:47:42,450 --> 01:47:40,930 said how can you watch Battlestar 2648 01:47:43,860 --> 01:47:42,460 Galactica you don't even have cable you 2649 01:47:46,200 --> 01:47:43,870 know we just download it for free off 2650 01:47:47,760 --> 01:47:46,210 the internet I say do you realize what 2651 01:47:50,250 --> 01:47:47,770 you're doing you're putting yourself out 2652 01:47:52,020 --> 01:47:50,260 of business that's crazy but you know 2653 01:47:53,310 --> 01:47:52,030 even filmmakers are doing it everybody 2654 01:47:55,590 --> 01:47:53,320 thinks they can get something for free 2655 01:47:57,090 --> 01:47:55,600 these days and that's a mistake it takes 2656 01:47:59,130 --> 01:47:57,100 money to go out and do what Mike and I 2657 01:48:00,750 --> 01:47:59,140 have done over the years which is make 2658 01:48:02,670 --> 01:48:00,760 films it takes a lot of money doesn't it 2659 01:48:04,980 --> 01:48:02,680 Mike to do it well thanks hundreds of 2660 01:48:06,840 --> 01:48:04,990 thousands of dollars I always get my 2661 01:48:08,340 --> 01:48:06,850 films from the library or from the video 2662 01:48:09,960 --> 01:48:08,350 rental place because I agree with Paul 2663 01:48:12,300 --> 01:48:09,970 you know I don't really appreciate 2664 01:48:13,890 --> 01:48:12,310 having my stuff being you know ripped 2665 01:48:15,870 --> 01:48:13,900 off for me nothing that happens too much 2666 01:48:17,370 --> 01:48:15,880 but that has happened I can see the 2667 01:48:19,800 --> 01:48:17,380 point of view and this how we biggle 2668 01:48:22,050 --> 01:48:19,810 early will tell you this folks now 2669 01:48:24,420 --> 01:48:22,060 everyone knows about my financial woes 2670 01:48:27,960 --> 01:48:24,430 because they've been spread far and wide 2671 01:48:29,160 --> 01:48:27,970 I still managed to pay for my Netflix 2672 01:48:31,620 --> 01:48:29,170

interesting coincidences and the 2745 01:51:09,610 --> 01:51:07,730 research as I get to in the future I 2746 01:51:11,920 --> 01:51:09,620 have that experience to sort of draw on 2747 01:51:14,610 --> 01:51:11,930 so I'm really thankful for it but by the 2748 01:51:17,380 --> 01:51:14,620 same token I'm done thinking about UFOs 2749 01:51:21,490 --> 01:51:17,390 unless I see one I've been robbed and 2750 01:51:25,930 --> 01:51:21,500 seeing one for 48 years so III until I 2751 01:51:28,210 --> 01:51:25,940 see a UFO let me ask you just before 2752 01:51:30,220 --> 01:51:28,220 gene shuts us down one other thing that 2753 01:51:32,260 --> 01:51:30,230 you did you did the supernatural 2754 01:51:34,840 --> 01:51:32,270 investigator episode with Mack on life 2755 01:51:37,060 --> 01:51:34,850 on other planets but you yourself you 2756 01:51:40,960 --> 01:51:37,070 were actually the subject weren't you of 2757 01:51:43,840 --> 01:51:40,970 another episode on the Antichrist a 2758 01:51:45,730 --> 01:51:43,850 little investigation on the Antichrist 2759 01:51:49,090 --> 01:51:45,740 which was really an investigation in the 2760 01:51:51,220 --> 01:51:49,100 popular culture and theology and so we 2761 01:51:53,440 --> 01:51:51,230 met some interesting characters along 2762 01:51:55,210 --> 01:51:53,450 the way because it was very much a get 2763 01:51:58,780 --> 01:51:55,220 in there and talk to people kind of 2764 01:52:01,540 --> 01:51:58,790 documentary yeah holds a Miranda desu 2765 01:52:03,820 --> 01:52:01,550 check he says that he's you know the 2766 01:52:05,770 --> 01:52:03,830 price for eternity is it about eight 2767 01:52:09,610 --> 01:52:05,780 hundred thousand followers and you know 2768 01:52:13,060 --> 01:52:11,440 I was just gonna ask you having dealt 2769 01:52:15,160 --> 01:52:13,070 with people who sort of her into the 2770 01:52:17,890 --> 01:52:15,170 Antichrist and having dealt with people 2771 01:52:20,500 --> 01:52:17,900 who are into UFOs and met some of the 2772 01:52:22,480 --> 01:52:20,510 weirder people in the UFO field which 2773 01:52:24,400 --> 01:52:22,490 which is weirder you know this sort of 2774 01:52:26,590 --> 01:52:24,410 weirdos in the Antichrist thing or the 2775 01:52:28,540 --> 01:52:26,600 UFO weirdos and I don't mean everybody 2776 01:52:30,790 --> 01:52:28,550 in ufology is weirdo but I mean the 2777 01:52:33,340 --> 01:52:30,800 French I'm raising my hand I'm a weirdo 2778 01:52:34,990 --> 01:52:33,350 I plead guilty go ahead honestly have to 2779 01:52:36,910 --> 01:52:35,000 say that you know when it comes to UFOs 2780 01:52:40,540 --> 01:52:36,920 I think that believe it or not 2781 01:52:41,380 --> 01:52:40,550 saner people prevail compared to what 2782 01:52:47,770 --> 01:52:41,390 the Antichrist 2783 01:52:50,910 --> 01:52:47,780 things like that I I would stake the 2784 01:52:54,580 --> 01:52:50,920 UFOs if you don't feel like this 2785 01:52:57,490 --> 01:52:54,590 honestly I find that that a UFO ufology 2786 01:53:00,370 --> 01:52:57,500 you FRG has developed over the years and 2787 01:53:02,200 --> 01:53:00,380 that it is you know worthy of pursued 2788 01:53:04,240 --> 01:53:02,210 and more and more people who probably 2789 01:53:05,890 --> 01:53:04,250 wouldn't have associated with it before 2790 01:53:08,800 --> 01:53:05,900 in terms of research they're willing to 2791 01:53:10,810 --> 01:53:08,810 look at it and it's acknowledge that 2792 01:53:12,250 --> 01:53:10,820 something's going on when it comes to a 2793 01:53:13,840 --> 01:53:12,260 theological so Jay 2794 01:53:15,610 --> 01:53:13,850 there's a lot of personal hair and 2795 01:53:17,530 --> 01:53:15,620 feelings and emotions that come into 2796 01:53:19,720 --> 01:53:17,540 play and you get a lot more of a fringe 2797 01:53:23,320 --> 01:53:19,730 element quicker in terms of like basic 2798 01:53:25,450 --> 01:53:23,330 research the apology is more developed I 2799 01:53:27,400 --> 01:53:25,460 think are you researching the Antichrist 2800 01:53:29,920 --> 01:53:27,410 is there supposed to be such a character 2801 01:53:31,600 --> 01:53:29,930 or you're just looking well after what 2802 01:53:33,280 --> 01:53:31,610 the Catholic Church might say on the 2803 01:53:35,760 --> 01:53:33,290 subject well there's many writings for 2804 01:53:38,670 --> 01:53:35,770 the Antichrist is basically one of three 2805 01:53:40,990 --> 01:53:38,680 individuals that appear in the 2806 01:53:43,690 --> 01:53:41,000 revelation you know the other one is 2807 01:53:46,240 --> 01:53:43,700 also Satan themselves and the other one 2808 01:53:48,850 --> 01:53:46,250 is the false prophet so they work as a 2809 01:53:51,040 --> 01:53:48,860 sort of a triumvirate of evil which sort 2810 01:53:53,590 --> 01:53:51,050 of offsets the father sending the Holy 2811 01:53:56,050 --> 01:53:53,600 Spirit of the good so the Antichrist is 2812 01:53:58,930 --> 01:53:56,060 given a lot more sort of he's actually a 2813 01:54:00,400 --> 01:53:58,940 second-in-command to Satan when you look 2814 01:54:02,980 --> 01:54:00,410 at it from a theological point of view 2815 01:54:05,710 --> 01:54:02,990 but people automatically equate the 2816 01:54:10,090 --> 01:54:05,720 Antichrist ritzy when in actual fact is 2817 01:54:11,380 --> 01:54:10,100 more like Satan's first well they've 2818 01:54:13,420 --> 01:54:11,390 obviously never seen the devil's 2819 01:54:16,450 --> 01:54:13,430 advocate where Al Pacino plays Satan in 2820 01:54:19,480 --> 01:54:16,460 canto reeves plays the sort of incipient 2821 01:54:22,180 --> 01:54:19,490 antichrist beer when a is that so 2822 01:54:23,440 --> 01:54:22,190 odd because my my limited theological 2823 01:54:26,620 --> 01:54:23,450 understanding and i always get confused 2824 01:54:28,870 --> 01:54:26,630 about the Holy Trinity where God Jesus 2825 01:54:31,900 --> 01:54:28,880 and the Holy Spirit are separate yet the 2826 01:54:33,880 --> 01:54:31,910 same but really isn't Jesus sort of 2827 01:54:36,220 --> 01:54:33,890 God's number two if you sort of divvy 2828 01:54:37,960 --> 01:54:36,230 them up so if you have God and Satan at 2829 01:54:39,580 --> 01:54:37,970 the top then you've got the Antichrist 2830 01:54:41,080 --> 01:54:39,590 isn't the Antichrist sort of my 2831 01:54:46,690 --> 01:54:41,090 understanding always was the sort of 2832 01:54:49,330 --> 01:54:46,700 other side of Jesus a lot of people draw 2833 01:54:51,880 --> 01:54:49,340 that parallel and I think that arguments 2834 01:54:54,160 --> 01:54:51,890 to be made for that who was now when you 2835 01:54:56,170 --> 01:54:54,170 talk to people I would assume you might 2836 01:54:58,270 --> 01:54:56,180 have asked the question hey Frank 2837 01:55:01,510 --> 01:54:58,280 who's the Antichrist what was the 2838 01:55:04,090 --> 01:55:01,520 weirdest by atreya was one answer 2839 01:55:04,630 --> 01:55:04,100 there's a gentleman I met she's I'm 2840 01:55:05,650 --> 01:55:04,640 sorry 2841 01:55:07,360 --> 01:55:05,660 can't remember his name right off the 2842 01:55:11,080 --> 01:55:07,370 bat it'll come to me it looks like dee 2843 01:55:13,240 --> 01:55:11,090 dee Ramone Pastor Harry Walter and you 2844 01:55:15,310 --> 01:55:13,250 can find him on the Internet has to 2845 01:55:18,130 --> 01:55:15,320 Harry Walter he looks just like dee dee 2846 01:55:19,840 --> 01:55:18,140 Ramone and he is using a Hebrew 2847 01:55:22,540 --> 01:55:19,850 calculator because the Hebrew later said 2848 01:55:24,160 --> 01:55:22,550 numeric values and scourging to the 2849 01:55:26,170 --> 01:55:24,170 Bible with the Eber calculator he's 2850 01:55:29,830 --> 01:55:26,180 discovered that my atreya which is a 2851 01:55:31,510 --> 01:55:29,840 Buddhist deity of some sort is the true 2852 01:55:33,790 --> 01:55:31,520 Antichrist and that if you look at his 2853 01:55:35,560 --> 01:55:33,800 his face it looks just like the face on 2854 01:55:38,530 --> 01:55:35,570 Mars and if you look at the Sphinx it 2855 01:55:41,020 --> 01:55:38,540 looks like its face and you know yeah 2856 01:55:42,670 --> 01:55:41,030 and you know and that's you know you get 2857 01:55:46,120 --> 01:55:42,680 that right and you also get that in you 2858 01:55:47,110 --> 01:55:46,130 a whole field believe me do you know I 2859 01:55:49,210 --> 01:55:47,120 mean a lot of people would say that 2860 01:55:50,710 --> 01:55:49,220 field sprinkle is like you know going a 2861 01:55:51,910 --> 01:55:50,720 little bit too far in that direction and 2862 01:55:53,170 --> 01:55:51,920 you know what some of the stuff being 2863 01:55:55,390 --> 01:55:53,180 said in the interview that he didn't use 2864 01:56:00,040 --> 01:55:55,400 I don't know you know maybe maybe 2865 01:56:01,450 --> 01:56:00,050 wouldn't been said that 20 years ago the 2866 01:56:03,940 --> 01:56:01,460 great thing about doing interviews for 2867 01:56:05,980 --> 01:56:03,950 documentaries is all the stuff that you 2868 01:56:08,800 --> 01:56:05,990 see or in the u.s. you don't see on TV 2869 01:56:10,630 --> 01:56:08,810 there's 80 hours sometimes or 60 hours 2870 01:56:12,880 --> 01:56:10,640 of footage that we don't put in the film 2871 01:56:14,800 --> 01:56:12,890 for any one of a number of reasons so 2872 01:56:16,960 --> 01:56:14,810 I've got 18 hours of footage with Stan 2873 01:56:21,990 --> 01:56:16,970 Freedman when I did the Freedman film of 2874 01:56:26,050 --> 01:56:24,400 and never shuts up he's the best 2875 01:56:27,880 --> 01:56:26,060 interview ever and I say that all 2876 01:56:30,940 --> 01:56:27,890 affection you just turned the camera on 2877
