that their 99 00:04:19,159 --> 00:04:17,310 stories are all kind of ridiculous 100 00:04:23,659 --> 00:04:19,169 they're they're really poor videos or 101 00:04:25,100 --> 00:04:23,669 hoax hoax

let's have it this first one I 105 00:04:35,899 --> 00:04:34,229 just wanted to mention it's kind of an 106 00:04:39,320 --> 00:04:35,909 honorable mention because it's not 107 00:04:42,110 --> 00:04:39,330 necessarily UFOs but it's at area 51 and 108 00:04:44,600 --> 00:04:42,120 this video is so much fun so there was 109 00:04:46,850 --> 00:04:44,610 this guy again Glen Campbell and then 110 00:04:50,709 --> 00:04:46,860 the 90s he was a big area 51 researcher 111 00:04:53,149 --> 00:04:50,719 this is this guy's really interesting he 112 00:04:54,950 --> 00:04:53,159 doesn't own a home he's a homeless 113 00:04:57,170 --> 00:04:54,960 person he's very proud of that he always 114 00:05:00,800 --> 00:04:57,180 lives out of his car he used to live 115 00:05:03,170 --> 00:05:00,810 near area 51 and get take videos and 116 00:05:04,249 --> 00:05:03,180 trying to bug the security guards and 117 00:05:07,519 --> 00:05:04,259 stuff like that 118 00:05:09,200 --> 00:05:07,529 and did a lot of stuff on area 51 had 119 00:05:11,300 --> 00:05:09,210 some really good information and 120 00:05:12,980 --> 00:05:11,310 photographs and stuff like that but it's 121 00:05:14,779 --> 00:05:12,990 been a while since he's done this sort 122 00:05:16,969 --> 00:05:14,789 of work he's still homeless he says but 123 00:05:19,040 --> 00:05:16,979 now he's an author and he's doing a lot 124 00:05:22,550 --> 00:05:19,050 of other stuff well he went back to area 125 00:05:25,610 --> 00:05:22,560 51 to take some video just for old time 126 00:05:28,640 --> 00:05:25,620 sakes he says and that he got harassed 127 00:05:31,820 --> 00:05:28,650 by the security guards and it the video 128 00:05:36,379 --> 00:05:31,830 is really funny so he's there and he's 129 00:05:38,390 --> 00:05:36,389 on he says you know nan you know he's 130 00:05:42,829 --> 00:05:38,400 not on the base so he's on this side of 131 00:05:44,600 --> 00:05:42,839 the signs and you see this truck and as 132 00:05:46,879 --> 00:05:44,610 soon as he puts his camera on the truck 133 00:05:49,700 --> 00:05:46,889 the truck kind of backs up and hides 134 00:05:51,589 --> 00:05:49,710 behind this bush and it's really 135 00:05:54,019 --> 00:05:51,599 ridiculous like I wrote in my story 136 00:05:55,519 --> 00:05:54,029 about it it reminds me of the cat's you 137 00:05:57,709 --> 00:05:55,529 know how a cat will kind of hide its 138 00:05:59,240 --> 00:05:57,719 head and think that it's hidden and you 139 00:06:01,399 --> 00:05:59,250 can see its entire body 140 00:06:04,249 --> 00:06:01,409 yeah it's that sort of thing so it's 141 00:06:06,439 --> 00:06:04,259 really silly so then he decided to trick 142 00:06:09,050 --> 00:06:06,449 him and he went and he parked and he 143 00:06:09,649 --> 00:06:09,060 walked up this hill so and they sure not 144 00:06:11,779 --> 00:06:09,659 followed 145 00:06:13,700 --> 00:06:11,789 but then he backtracked on the other 146 00:06:15,649 --> 00:06:13,710 side of the hill came around behind 147 00:06:17,360 --> 00:06:15,659 these guys in their truck and he's 148 00:06:19,909 --> 00:06:17,370 filming and he's kind of giggling as 149 00:06:21,829 --> 00:06:19,919 he's sneaking up on him and he gets like 150 00:06:23,689 --> 00:06:21,839 really close to the truck he's 151 00:06:25,249 --> 00:06:23,699 practically right in front of the truck 152 00:06:27,110 --> 00:06:25,259 before they notice they're just kind of 153 00:06:29,450 --> 00:06:27,120 blabbing away it looks like holding the 154 00:06:32,029 --> 00:06:29,460 conversation and talking when he comes 155 00:06:33,589 --> 00:06:32,039 around and finally they spot him and one 156 00:06:35,240 --> 00:06:33,599 of them jumps out of the truck and says 157 00:06:37,070 --> 00:06:35,250 hey you want me to take that camera and 158 00:06:38,330 --> 00:06:37,080 he runs away and he's like you can't 159 00:06:40,670 --> 00:06:38,340 take my camera and 160 00:06:42,830 --> 00:06:40,680 and he said that he kept running and 161 00:06:45,290 --> 00:06:42,840 they went their way and he went his that 162 00:06:48,200 --> 00:06:45,300 the video is just hilarious it should 163 00:06:50,210 --> 00:06:48,210 have a Benny Hill soundtrack behind it 164 00:06:52,159 --> 00:06:50,220 but it's really good I think that people 165 00:06:54,560 --> 00:06:52,169 would have a lot of fun and you can 166 00:06:56,510 --> 00:06:54,570 check it out and you get it a close look 167 00:06:58,730 --> 00:06:56,520 at those cool trucks that they drive 168 00:07:01,700 --> 00:06:58,740 that you see up on the hill when you go 169 00:07:04,310 --> 00:07:01,710 to visit their roads going to area 51 so 170 00:07:06,200 --> 00:07:04,320 that is for the listener that video will 171 00:07:08,510 --> 00:07:06,210 be linked right in our show notes which 172 00:07:11,180 --> 00:07:08,520 will bring you over to open mind start 173 00:07:12,530 --> 00:07:11,190 TV and you can watch that and I'm 174 00:07:14,780 --> 00:07:12,540 looking forward to watching that myself 175 00:07:16,600 --> 00:07:14,790 yeah it's a lot of fun you've got to see 176 00:07:21,560 --> 00:07:16,610 it you love you'll love it yeah 177 00:07:24,409 --> 00:07:21,570 otherwise in UFO news actually we wrote 178 00:07:26,750 --> 00:07:24,419 a lot of stuff about triangles there's 179 00:07:28,909 --> 00:07:26,760 been a lot of triangular UFOs seen in 180 00:07:31,909 --> 00:07:28,919 the news lately and so this is kind of 181 00:07:33,800 --> 00:07:31,919 interesting so the first story I wanted 182 00:07:36,529 --> 00:07:33,810 to mention is this gentleman with a 183 00:07:40,040 --> 00:07:36,539 military background he says that he was 184 00:07:42,710 --> 00:07:40,050 formerly in Navy rescue and so he knows 185 00:07:44,360 --> 00:07:42,720 aircraft warning lights but he had seen 186 00:07:47,600 --> 00:07:44,370 some strange lights at about 8:00 p.m. 187 00:07:50,270 --> 00:07:47,610 on June 11th that he could not explain 188 00:07:52,370 --> 00:07:50,280 he got a little bit of video of them and 189 00:07:55,270 --> 00:07:52,380 you see these three lights that are in a 190 00:07:58,820 --> 00:07:55,280 triangular formation kind of blinking 191 00:08:03,080 --> 00:07:58,830 strangely kind of an odd video it's a 192 00:08:05,420 --> 00:08:03,090 pretty short video but he was able to 193 00:08:06,529 --> 00:08:05,430 get video of this and he's just saying 194 00:08:09,219 --> 00:08:06,539 that you know he thinks it's really 195 00:08:13,879 --> 00:08:09,229 weird he doesn't know what it was and 196 00:08:15,890 --> 00:08:13,889 this was in North Carolina in the story 197 00:08:19,640 --> 00:08:15,900 that Roger Marsh had written about this 198 00:08:22,279 --> 00:08:19,650 he noted that he had contacted Sandford 199 00:08:24,350 --> 00:08:22,289 Davis who is the MUFON Carolina North 200 00:08:26,510 --> 00:08:24,360 Carolina investigator who looked at it 201 00:08:28,550 --> 00:08:26,520 and she had closed it as an unknown he 202 00:08:31,700 --> 00:08:28,560 couldn't figure out what it was and that 203 00:08:34,719 --> 00:08:31,710 there was another sighting soon after 204 00:08:37,760 --> 00:08:34,729 just a few days later in the same area 205 00:08:40,850 --> 00:08:37,770 Davis suggested that perhaps it was 206 00:08:44,320 --> 00:08:40,860 military and some kind of black project 207 00:08:47,180 --> 00:08:44,330 perhaps a variation of the Astra tr-3b 208 00:08:49,579 --> 00:08:47,190 which there is no evidence exists but 209 00:08:52,070 --> 00:08:49,589 it's kind of a mythology out there but 210 00:08:55,220 --> 00:08:52,080 still you know it's certainly possible 211 00:08:58,130 --> 00:08:55,230 and there are I know for a fact we have 212 00:09:00,800 --> 00:08:58,140 found Inklings of triangular-shaped 213 00:09:03,260 --> 00:09:00,810 secret aircraft that is out there so 214 00:09:06,560 --> 00:09:03,270 there's something whether or not it's an 215 00:09:07,400 --> 00:09:06,570 unconventional in nature that's to be 216 00:09:09,980 --> 00:09:07,410 foreseen 217 00:09:13,070 --> 00:09:09,990 however there were another couple of 218 00:09:15,590 --> 00:09:13,080 triangular sightings that Roger had 219 00:09:18,710 --> 00:09:15,600 written about it open mind stat TV one 220 00:09:21,110 --> 00:09:18,720 of the more recent one was around Kansas 221 00:09:24,620 --> 00:09:21,120 City and this was a very bright light 222 00:09:26,570 --> 00:09:24,630 that someone had seen on August 14 it 223 00:09:31,910 --> 00:09:26,580 was coming towards them it was going 224 00:09:34,880 --> 00:09:31,920 slowly and it was or it was moving fast 225 00:09:36,800 --> 00:09:34,890 and very close to the ground so this 226 00:09:38,210 --> 00:09:36,810 person says at first it was in the 227 00:09:40,540 --> 00:09:38,220 direction of the airport so they didn't 228 00:09:43,010 --> 00:09:40,550 think much of it then they parked 229 00:09:45,560 --> 00:09:43,020 because it looked like this was a 230 00:09:47,540 --> 00:09:45,570 airplane that was about to crash so they 231 00:09:49,400 --> 00:09:47,550 parked to take a look at it and it got 232 00:09:52,010 --> 00:09:49,410 closer and closer and the light actually 233 00:09:54,110 --> 00:09:52,020 zoomed overhead and that's when this 234 00:09:57,200 --> 00:09:54,120 person could see it was actually three 235 00:09:58,690 --> 00:09:57,210 lights in a triangular formation so that 236 00:10:00,620 --> 00:09:58,700 was kind of a weird story 237 00:10:03,020 --> 00:10:00,630 now do you know if that one in 238 00:10:04,460 --> 00:10:03,030 particular made any noise a great 239 00:10:06,500 --> 00:10:04,470 question it did not make any noise 240 00:10:08,180 --> 00:10:06,510 that's why they thought it was a plane 241 00:10:11,030 --> 00:10:08,190 crashing because there were no engine 242 00:10:14,300 --> 00:10:11,040 sounds dog just ash whooshing of air 243 00:10:15,710 --> 00:10:14,310 they said moving through the air you 244 00:10:18,290 --> 00:10:15,720 know it's funny a lot of times you never 245 00:10:18,980 --> 00:10:18,300 hear of anybody even saying that yeah 246 00:10:21,470 --> 00:10:18,990 you're right 247 00:10:23,960 --> 00:10:21,480 the schooch are there yeah and yeah 248 00:10:27,980 --> 00:10:23,970 you're right which is of odd this is 249 00:10:34,220 --> 00:10:27,990 true or real word actually they used to 250 00:10:36,770 --> 00:10:34,230 switch swish like okay so I haven't 251 00:10:39,620 --> 00:10:36,780 googled that to find if it's a real word 252 00:10:41,600 --> 00:10:39,630 I don't think it is but you know what's 253 00:10:44,180 --> 00:10:41,610 funny these days I don't I don't think 254 00:10:46,490 --> 00:10:44,190 there's an age I remember growing up it 255 00:10:49,250 --> 00:10:46,500 was not like this when that worked there 256 00:10:51,290 --> 00:10:49,260 was words added to the dictionary would 257 00:10:52,850 --> 00:10:51,300 be a big deal there'd be a new story you 258 00:10:54,170 --> 00:10:52,860 know you'd see all about it there just 259 00:10:56,990 --> 00:10:54,180 be a couple right it would be 260 00:11:00,890 --> 00:10:57,000 controversial these days they're adding 261 00:11:03,020 --> 00:11:00,900 you know words like crazy like every 262 00:11:05,000 --> 00:11:03,030 word someone makes up so that it's 263 00:11:07,640 --> 00:11:05,010 shorter for them to tweet it 264 00:11:11,150 --> 00:11:07,650 it gets in the dictionary so I'm sure 265 00:11:13,250 --> 00:11:11,160 sure if we start using swish in fact 266 00:11:15,890 --> 00:11:13,260 especially if we started hashtagging it 267 00:11:18,620 --> 00:11:15,900 we can get it in the dictionary in no 268 00:11:19,700 --> 00:11:18,630 time I think we should we should get on 269 00:11:22,040 --> 00:11:19,710 this and get it done 270 00:11:24,230 --> 00:11:22,050 one last triangular UFO sighting I 271 00:11:28,100 --> 00:11:24,240 wanted to talk about was seen at on 272 00:11:30,260 --> 00:11:28,110 August 19th and this is in the Austin 273 00:11:33,530 --> 00:11:30,270 Texas area this one's a little more 274 00:11:36,230 --> 00:11:33,540 exciting because it was 644 a.m. so it 275 00:11:39,950 --> 00:11:36,240 was during daylight hours and this was a 276 00:11:42,620 --> 00:11:39,960 guy who says he was outside and looking 277 00:11:44,540 --> 00:11:42,630 at a squirrel on an apartment rooftop 278 00:11:47,060 --> 00:11:44,550 which kind of reminds that's it it's 279 00:11:49,400 --> 00:11:47,070 like me in the morning my brain takes 280 00:11:52,280 --> 00:11:49,410 forever to warm up so my I'm like a 281 00:11:54,410 --> 00:11:52,290 zombie and that's like about as much 282 00:11:56,330 --> 00:11:54,420 input as I can kind of comprehend in the 283 00:11:58,580 --> 00:11:56,340 morning I can see myself sitting there 284 00:12:00,770 --> 00:11:58,590 in the morning watching a squirrel you 285 00:12:04,730 --> 00:12:00,780 know like a dog just watching and going 286 00:12:06,290 --> 00:12:04,740 back and forth but anyway I think that's 287 00:12:07,670 --> 00:12:06,300 what I'm guessing that's what this guy 288 00:12:09,590 --> 00:12:07,680 was doing trying to wake up in the 289 00:12:12,290 --> 00:12:09,600 morning he's watching the squirrel run 290 00:12:15,650 --> 00:12:12,300 around and then beyond the squirrel he 291 00:12:17,540 --> 00:12:15,660 noticed a triangular shaped object that 292 00:12:21,050 --> 00:12:17,550 he said was coming towards him 293 00:12:23,120 --> 00:12:21,060 at a high rate of speed he said what was 294 00:12:26,720 --> 00:12:23,130 interesting is that the body of the 295 00:12:29,930 --> 00:12:26,730 object appeared transparent like it was 296 00:12:32,720 --> 00:12:29,940 changing colors it actually flew over 297 00:12:35,150 --> 00:12:32,730 him he said it was cloudy and he 298 00:12:37,040 --> 00:12:35,160 estimated the clouds were around 13,000 299 00:12:39,560 --> 00:12:37,050 feet so he thinks this was a bit lower 300 00:12:42,200 --> 00:12:39,570 than that because he could see it but 301 00:12:45,980 --> 00:12:42,210 yeah the strange object he felt was kind 302 00:12:47,630 --> 00:12:45,990 of stealthy even had some kind of color 303 00:12:51,080 --> 00:12:47,640 changing properties that zoomed right 304 00:12:53,500 --> 00:12:51,090 over his head well well is that it for 305 00:12:56,720 --> 00:12:53,510 this week that's it for this week 306 00:12:58,250 --> 00:12:56,730 triangles on parade I know and it seemed 307 00:13:00,970 --> 00:12:58,260 like there are a couple of stories we 308 00:13:03,920 --> 00:13:00,980 had the week before more and more and 309 00:13:06,110 --> 00:13:03,930 millat of triangular sightings so really 310 00:13:08,300 --> 00:13:06,120 interesting stuff and I have heard from 311 00:13:11,240 --> 00:13:08,310 David Mayer and that should get back to 312 00:13:13,100 --> 00:13:11,250 him he of course it's a guy who wrote a 313 00:13:15,890 --> 00:13:13,110 book on triangles that I would recommend 314 00:13:18,720 --> 00:13:15,900 you had him on your show he's got some 315 00:13:21,660 --> 00:13:18,730 new stuff out there too so 316 00:13:23,640 --> 00:13:21,670 yeah yeah about that

00:15:32,850 how you started having an interest in 345 00:15:42,220 --> 00:15:37,440 UFOs and alike well my interest in UFOs 346 00:15:45,520 --> 00:15:42,230 actually went goes back to when I was 347 00:15:50,470 --> 00:15:45,530 excuse me a teenager I had a rather 348 00:15:53,900 --> 00:15:50,480 exciting sighting in December of 1966 349 00:15:56,230 --> 00:15:53,910 I'm originally from the east coast from 350 00:16:01,190 --> 00:15:56,240 Pennsylvania I live in California now 351 00:16:04,060 --> 00:16:01,200 but in December especially during that 352 00:16:08,150 --> 00:16:04,070 period of time I was in high school and 353 00:16:11,780 --> 00:16:08,160 I was on a deer hunting trip with four 354 00:16:16,420 --> 00:16:11,790 friends when we were coming back late in 355 00:16:18,010 --> 00:16:16,430 the afternoon we were over flown by for 356 00:16:22,280 --> 00:16:18,020 brilliant 357 00:16:26,840 --> 00:16:22,290 Arclight type lights and one of my 358 00:16:29,000 --> 00:16:26,850 friends saw them first and yelled and we 359 00:16:31,550 --> 00:16:29,010 all jumped turned around and these 360 00:16:34,760 --> 00:16:31,560 lights were and they were not low they 361 00:16:39,060 --> 00:16:34,770 were probably I'm gonna guess somewhere 362 00:16:42,480 --> 00:16:39,070 between twelve fifteen thousand feet 363 00:16:45,630 --> 00:16:42,490 perhaps but they were striking I mean 364 00:16:48,030 --> 00:16:45,640 just absolutely striking and as they 365 00:16:49,740 --> 00:16:48,040 overflow it's the one light in the rear 366 00:16:53,070 --> 00:16:49,750 they originally were in a diamond 367 00:16:55,560 --> 00:16:53,080 formation suddenly shot straight up in 368 00:16:58,740 --> 00:16:55,570 the skies so that's when I knew that 369 00:17:00,900 --> 00:16:58,750 there was as far as I was concerned you 370 00:17:09,410 --> 00:17:00,910 bet there was something to the 371 00:17:13,920 --> 00:17:09,420 phenomenon so I guess it was in 1982 372 00:17:16,319 --> 00:17:13,930 although I was not then consciously 373 00:17:19,829 --> 00:17:16,329 aware of it but I was a criminal 374 00:17:22,590 --> 00:17:19,839 investigator a policeman and I had been 375 00:17:26,610 --> 00:17:22,600 called out - this was in the state of 376 00:17:29,970 --> 00:17:26,620 Idaho I had been called out on an 377 00:17:35,720 --> 00:17:29,980 agricultural crime I had been sent out 378 00:17:41,130 --> 00:17:35,730 because a farmer had reported a dead cow 379 00:17:45,980 --> 00:17:41,140 one of his cattle that was only maybe 35 380 00:17:49,920 --> 00:17:45,990 yards or so from the rear of his house 381 00:17:52,080 --> 00:17:49,930 in other words it had happened literally 382 00:17:56,880 --> 00:17:52,090 on top of his house and it was a classic 383 00:18:00,830 --> 00:17:56,890 mutilation and the guy had several kids 384 00:18:05,990 --> 00:18:00,840 he was married he had a couple of dogs 385 00:18:09,950 --> 00:18:06,000 nothing had alerted any of the dogs or 386 00:18:13,890 --> 00:18:09,960 himself or his family when this happened 387 00:18:18,570 --> 00:18:13,900 apparently sometime during the night so 388 00:18:21,510 --> 00:18:18,580 that case was was never solved and it 389 00:18:24,480 --> 00:18:21,520 wasn't until a number of years later I 390 00:18:29,610 --> 00:18:24,490 was I was wounded in the line of duty 391 00:18:32,520 --> 00:18:29,620 ended up medically retiring in 1986 and 392 00:18:36,090 --> 00:18:32,530 the following year while I was going 393 00:18:39,470 --> 00:18:36,100 through physical rehab to keep myself 394 00:18:43,800 --> 00:18:39,480 busy I bought my first computer system 395 00:18:47,340 --> 00:18:43,810 wow that's early 1986 seven yeah that's 396 00:18:50,520 --> 00:18:47,350 pretty early and then I compounded that 397 00:18:52,280 --> 00:18:50,530 error error that Martin by buying a 398 00:18:55,760 --> 00:18:52,290 modem 399 00:18:59,300 --> 00:18:55,770 and I discovered CompuServe - the - yeah 400 00:19:01,850 --> 00:18:59,310 six dollars forty cents an hour at 300 401 00:19:06,620 --> 00:19:01,860 baud okay now if you don't know what 300 402 00:19:09,320 --> 00:19:06,630 baud is you're lucky that was a 403 00:19:11,780 --> 00:19:09,330 chiseling you know chiseling words into 404 00:19:13,940 --> 00:19:11,790 a chunk of granite watching the Morton 405 00:19:18,200 --> 00:19:13,950 scroll across your screen but at any 406 00:19:21,890 --> 00:19:18,210 rate I came across a forum on CompuServe 407 00:19:24,500 --> 00:19:21,900 called the issues forum and there were a 408 00:19:28,190 --> 00:19:24,510 number of files in there on various 409 00:19:32,020 --> 00:19:28,200 things like UFOs cases that at that time 410 00:19:35,270 --> 00:19:32,030 or current and some cattle mutilation 411 00:19:38,440 --> 00:19:35,280 files and suddenly the light went on in 412 00:19:41,090 --> 00:19:38,450 my head and I said oh my god that's 413 00:19:43,550 --> 00:19:41,100 apparently what what I had been involved 414 00:19:48,140 --> 00:19:43,560 in so that that's basically how I got my 415 00:19:52,640 --> 00:19:48,150 start Wow you know there's that really 416 00:19:54,680 --> 00:19:52,650 is a weird subject I've weird another 417 00:19:56,450 --> 00:19:54,690 weird thing to look into is the whole 418 00:19:57,920 --> 00:19:56,460 cattle mutilations 419 00:20:00,860 --> 00:19:57,930 you know that's come up a couple times 420 00:20:02,210 --> 00:20:00,870 on shows in the past and you know 421 00:20:04,700 --> 00:20:02,220 there's some people that have done some 422 00:20:08,480 --> 00:20:04,710 great research and I thought Linda 423 00:20:11,240 --> 00:20:08,490 Moulton Howe way back when did a really 424 00:20:13,610 --> 00:20:11,250 good you know a documentary on that and 425 00:20:16,310 --> 00:20:13,620 a few other people haven't investigated 426 00:20:18,110 --> 00:20:16,320 it and some people it comes back to a 427 00:20:20,450 --> 00:20:18,120 lot of people are still saying you know 428 00:20:25,070 --> 00:20:20,460 this is people that are doing this this 429 00:20:27,560 --> 00:20:25,080 is you know it all comes back to its 430 00:20:31,360 --> 00:20:27,570 kind of unexplainable if you ask me the 431 00:20:34,310 --> 00:20:31,370 incisions the precision of all the 432 00:20:36,950 --> 00:20:34,320 things that are done on these animals 433 00:20:41,600 --> 00:20:36,960 now you actually saw this with your own 434 00:20:43,670 --> 00:20:41,610 eyes so what was that like well I didn't 435 00:20:47,230 --> 00:20:43,680 know what it was at the time it was 436 00:20:49,910 --> 00:20:47,240 obvious that it was that it was 437 00:20:52,910 --> 00:20:49,920 intentionally done by someone or 438 00:20:56,210 --> 00:20:52,920 something now you know you bring up a 439 00:21:00,260 --> 00:20:56,220 very interesting point because this is 440 00:21:04,430 --> 00:21:00,270 something that I have I have stressed 441 00:21:06,109 --> 00:21:04,440 time and time again if this were a human 442 00:21:10,069 --> 00:21:06,119 agency there 443 00:21:14,809 --> 00:21:10,079 was conducting these mutilations okay 444 00:21:19,219 --> 00:21:14,819 you're talking about a national or even 445 00:21:23,119 --> 00:21:19,229 international consortium that would have 446 00:21:25,879 --> 00:21:23,129 to be doing this why do I say that well 447 00:21:30,019 --> 00:21:25,889 it's not located to one 448 00:21:33,339 --> 00:21:30,029 just one small geographic area this has 449 00:21:35,539 --> 00:21:33,349 been nationwide it has stretched 450 00:21:39,529 --> 00:21:35,549 literally from the states of Washington 451 00:21:45,049 --> 00:21:39,539 and Oregon and Idaho and Nevada and 452 00:21:49,869 --> 00:21:45,059 Montana and Utah and Oklahoma and Texas 453 00:21:54,259 --> 00:21:49,879 I mean all across the United States and 454 00:21:58,189 --> 00:21:54,269 in all the years that those cases have 455 00:22:01,969 --> 00:21:58,199 been reported and we're going back 50 60 456 00:22:05,289 --> 00:22:01,979 or more years here's the one thing to 457 00:22:09,289 --> 00:22:05,299 keep in mind no one has ever been 458 00:22:12,249 --> 00:22:09,299 arrested or successfully prosecuted now 459 00:22:16,369 --> 00:22:12,259 I was a I was a law enforcement agent 460 00:22:19,459 --> 00:22:16,379 out here in the West and let me tell you 461 00:22:23,599 --> 00:22:19,469 when you're talking about ranchers and 462 00:22:26,719 --> 00:22:23,609 farmers that have cattle you're talking 463 00:22:30,109 --> 00:22:26,729 about huge financial investments and 464 00:22:33,889 --> 00:22:30,119 very protective to and these guys and 465 00:22:36,949 --> 00:22:33,899 women will not Brook any interference 466 00:22:40,669 --> 00:22:36,959 with their with their animals and that 467 00:22:44,989 --> 00:22:40,679 includes going out with lethal weapons 468 00:22:48,379 --> 00:22:44,999 with with rifles shotguns to defend and 469 00:22:51,049 --> 00:22:48,389 protect their animals and you know this 470 00:22:54,139 --> 00:22:51,059 is just something that I could never 471 00:22:56,329 --> 00:22:54,149 fathom would be able to be carried on as 472 00:23:00,019 --> 00:22:56,339 long as it could and if this were a 473 00:23:03,409 --> 00:23:00,029 human agency someone not get shot or 474 00:23:05,749 --> 00:23:03,419 arrested or prosecuted and it just 475 00:23:08,809 --> 00:23:05,759 hasn't happened I think I've heard the 476 00:23:12,499 --> 00:23:08,819 theory from someone that it is 477 00:23:14,989 --> 00:23:12,509 government of the government is checking 478 00:23:18,079 --> 00:23:14,999 to see what nuclear I mean radiation 479 00:23:19,970 --> 00:23:18,089 effects are having on you know 480 00:23:22,820 --> 00:23:19,980 biological entities like cop 481 00:23:24,740 --> 00:23:22,830 you know animals in areas and that's why 482 00:23:26,690 --> 00:23:24,750 they're doing it about that I'm sure 483 00:23:29,090 --> 00:23:26,700 you've heard that one too it makes it 484 00:23:31,100 --> 00:23:29,100 doesn't make any sense to me well that's 485 00:23:31,970 --> 00:23:31,110 not to say that it may have never 486 00:23:34,250 --> 00:23:31,980 happened 487 00:23:38,240 --> 00:23:34,260 that is certainly it's not something I 488 00:23:41,930 --> 00:23:38,250 would throw out but it is not the only 489 00:23:45,470 --> 00:23:41,940 answer it can't be right 490 00:23:48,230 --> 00:23:45,480 and you know what are your thoughts on 491 00:23:51,880 --> 00:23:48,240 it I mean you know what a lot of people 492 00:23:53,539 --> 00:23:51,890 think it's tied to the UFO you know to 493 00:23:56,240 --> 00:23:53,549 extraterrestrial 494 00:23:58,430 --> 00:23:56,250 I mean it's to me I think it's just one 495 00:24:02,240 --> 00:23:58,440 of those unexplainable Zhai I don't know 496 00:24:03,919 --> 00:24:02,250 and in your research that you have done 497 00:24:06,530 --> 00:24:03,929 where there are a number of cases where 498 00:24:09,530 --> 00:24:06,540 there was a UFO sighting at the same 499 00:24:12,470 --> 00:24:09,540 time or ahead of time sure sure now I 500 00:24:15,020 --> 00:24:12,480 you know back when I was active in for 501 00:24:18,560 --> 00:24:15,030 the first I'm gonna say four or five 502 00:24:22,850 --> 00:24:18,570 years that I was involved with UFO 503 00:24:26,030 --> 00:24:22,860 magazine that is what my research was 504 00:24:30,159 --> 00:24:26,040 known for was mutilations not only 505 00:24:34,909 --> 00:24:30,169 animal mutilations but also human 506 00:24:37,280 --> 00:24:34,919 mutilations and I wrote a number of 507 00:24:39,590 --> 00:24:37,290 papers that can still be found on the 508 00:24:44,330 --> 00:24:39,600 web about that this is one I was when I 509 00:24:49,180 --> 00:24:44,340 was daily I was really dwell delving 510 00:24:53,450 --> 00:24:49,190 into this into this subject now the 511 00:24:57,799 --> 00:24:53,460 various theories that I have heard over 512 00:25:00,620 --> 00:24:57,809 all those years are legion for example 513 00:25:05,930 --> 00:25:00,630 one of the people that that I knew very 514 00:25:09,890 --> 00:25:05,940 well and I had a lot of chats with them 515 00:25:13,669 --> 00:25:09,900 as a matter of fact I interviewed him on 516 00:25:17,450 --> 00:25:13,679 my first in the pages of UFO magazine 517 00:25:20,930 --> 00:25:17,460 when my wife and I were publishing that 518 00:25:25,220 --> 00:25:20,940 and also when I began my broadcast 519 00:25:29,120 --> 00:25:25,230 career back in 1991 okay I had him on 520 00:25:32,440 --> 00:25:29,130 the radio with me was noted author and 521 00:25:38,440 --> 00:25:32,450 14 researcher John keel 522 00:25:41,080 --> 00:25:38,450 now keel back in the 60s and 70s was a 523 00:25:44,039 --> 00:25:41,090 prolific author I'm sure you're aware of 524 00:25:47,859 --> 00:25:44,049 him right yes mm-hmm 525 00:25:52,060 --> 00:25:47,869 had written a book that when I first 526 00:25:54,340 --> 00:25:52,070 read about it in the mid 1970s I 527 00:25:56,830 --> 00:25:54,350 immediately went out to my local 528 00:26:00,759 --> 00:25:56,840 bookstore ordered a copy it was titled 529 00:26:03,820 --> 00:26:00,769 the Mothman Prophecies because the case 530 00:26:06,609 --> 00:26:03,830 that he was talking about took place not 531 00:26:09,879 --> 00:26:06,619 very far from where I grew up at in 532 00:26:11,889 --> 00:26:09,889 central western Pennsylvania the case 533 00:26:15,669 --> 00:26:11,899 took place in Point Pleasant West 534 00:26:17,979 --> 00:26:15,679 Virginia and the Ohio Valley which as 535 00:26:22,659 --> 00:26:17,989 the crow flies was was pretty close to 536 00:26:26,769 --> 00:26:22,669 me and I can recall at the time that 537 00:26:30,899 --> 00:26:26,779 this was ongoing hearing about it in the 538 00:26:32,940 --> 00:26:30,909 news because people were seeing a 539 00:26:34,389 --> 00:26:32,950 cryptozoological apparently a 540 00:26:36,960 --> 00:26:34,399 cryptozoological 541 00:26:43,649 --> 00:26:36,970 creature that they called the Mothman 542 00:26:48,869 --> 00:26:43,659 down in that area and this creature was 543 00:26:52,779 --> 00:26:48,879 involved in scores of cases of missing 544 00:26:57,129 --> 00:26:52,789 dogs I mean and some of this stuff is 545 00:26:59,590 --> 00:26:57,139 going to sound pretty crazy but I got 546 00:27:02,379 --> 00:26:59,600 this directly from Keele and he was 547 00:27:06,899 --> 00:27:02,389 still at that time when I was talking to 548 00:27:09,549 --> 00:27:06,909 him was still flummoxed by what he had 549 00:27:13,419 --> 00:27:09,559 encountered during that period of time 550 00:27:15,820 --> 00:27:13,429 talk about strange occurrences and I 551 00:27:18,430 --> 00:27:15,830 think about it today and I'll be honest 552 00:27:23,039 --> 00:27:18,440 it still can give me a chill when I 553 00:27:25,840 --> 00:27:23,049 think about it but this creature and the 554 00:27:28,570 --> 00:27:25,850 events that were happening during that 555 00:27:31,840 --> 00:27:28,580 period of time included among other 556 00:27:34,529 --> 00:27:31,850 things not only missing animals 557 00:27:38,680 --> 00:27:34,539 livestock and what have you 558 00:27:41,139 --> 00:27:38,690 domesticated pets but also mutilations 559 00:27:43,330 --> 00:27:41,149 and we're talking about animal you know 560 00:27:45,950 --> 00:27:43,340 cows we're talking about stuff like that 561 00:27:51,230 --> 00:27:45,960 now kill 562 00:27:53,540 --> 00:27:51,240 had a very interesting theory and he 563 00:27:56,420 --> 00:27:53,550 bounced it off me I didn't know what to 564 00:27:59,750 --> 00:27:56,430 think about it and as a matter of fact 565 00:28:05,180 --> 00:27:59,760 he had written about it in his book 566 00:28:08,470 --> 00:28:05,190 Mothman but he although originally 567 00:28:12,110 --> 00:28:08,480 considered UFOs to be potentially 568 00:28:14,740 --> 00:28:12,120 extraterrestrial finally came to the 569 00:28:18,310 --> 00:28:14,750 conclusion that they were not 570 00:28:22,160 --> 00:28:18,320 extraterrestrial he coined the term 571 00:28:28,180 --> 00:28:22,170 ultra terrestrial now what what does 572 00:28:32,630 --> 00:28:28,190 that in effect mean he thought they were 573 00:28:35,180 --> 00:28:32,640 interdimensional now to me okay 574 00:28:38,030 --> 00:28:35,190 alien is alien is alien all right 575 00:28:41,840 --> 00:28:38,040 whether it comes from another star 576 00:28:44,900 --> 00:28:41,850 system or another dimension or another 577 00:28:49,190 --> 00:28:44,910 universe I mean I don't see you know 578 00:28:51,530 --> 00:28:49,200 what what the cymatics matter you know 579 00:28:54,460 --> 00:28:51,540 if you're talking about something that 580 00:28:59,030 --> 00:28:54,470 that is coming here from somewhere else 581 00:29:03,620 --> 00:28:59,040 but he'll came up with the theory that 582 00:29:07,370 --> 00:29:03,630 these ultra terrestrials with all this 583 00:29:13,340 --> 00:29:07,380 missing biological material animals 584 00:29:16,990 --> 00:29:13,350 blood various other items that you know 585 00:29:21,770 --> 00:29:17,000 were missing and involved in these cases 586 00:29:26,419 --> 00:29:21,780 that perhaps these entities were using 587 00:29:30,500 --> 00:29:26,429 them to construct biological entities to 588 00:29:34,460 --> 00:29:30,510 be able to operate in our domain here in 589 00:29:37,340 --> 00:29:34,470 our universe in our on our planet now 590 00:29:41,690 --> 00:29:37,350 one of the things that he used to 591 00:29:46,549 --> 00:29:41,700 support his theory were tales of the 592 00:29:50,090 --> 00:29:46,559 infamous men in black the MIB s now at 593 00:29:54,260 --> 00:29:50,100 that period of time the mi B's were not 594 00:29:59,049 --> 00:29:54,270 you know Will Smith and Tommy Tommy Lee 595 00:30:02,560 --> 00:29:59,059 Jones they were actually terrifying 596 00:30:06,970 --> 00:30:02,570 Tootie's that often showed up in the 597 00:30:10,749 --> 00:30:06,980 event the aftermath of UFO cases and in 598 00:30:13,720 --> 00:30:10,759 one famous case that qu'il talked about 599 00:30:16,330 --> 00:30:13,730 in his book were some people down in 600 00:30:21,480 --> 00:30:16,340 West Virginia that had had a UFO 601 00:30:26,440 --> 00:30:21,490 sighting and a day or two later this 602 00:30:31,419 --> 00:30:26,450 monstrosity of a looking man showed up 603 00:30:33,430 --> 00:30:31,429 at their door a huge guy he told the 604 00:30:36,639 --> 00:30:33,440 knocked on the door and they opened it 605 00:30:38,859 --> 00:30:36,649 up and he said he was there too 606 00:30:42,430 --> 00:30:38,869 if I remember correctly and it's been a 607 00:30:44,169 --> 00:30:42,440 while since I've read Kiehl's book but 608 00:30:46,690 --> 00:30:44,179 he was there to find out if they might 609 00:30:49,869 --> 00:30:46,700 have been heirs to somebody that had 610 00:30:53,220 --> 00:30:49,879 recently died that was his excuse for 611 00:30:58,330 --> 00:30:53,230 getting in the house but his suit was 612 00:31:00,789 --> 00:30:58,340 ill-fitting the guy was was bald extra 613 00:31:04,629 --> 00:31:00,799 pale I mean he could have maybe passed 614 00:31:07,960 --> 00:31:04,639 for a vampire and he came in sat down 615 00:31:11,169 --> 00:31:07,970 the pants that he was wearing rode up 616 00:31:15,159 --> 00:31:11,179 his leg and I believe it was the wife 617 00:31:20,519 --> 00:31:15,169 noticed what appeared to be a green wire 618 00:31:23,739 --> 00:31:20,529 or cable that was inserted into his leg 619 00:31:24,580 --> 00:31:23,749 now you know when you hear stories like 620 00:31:28,330 --> 00:31:24,590 that 621 00:31:31,869 --> 00:31:28,340 I mean sure at first blush you go oh 622 00:31:35,139 --> 00:31:31,879 [\h__\h] you know but the fact the 623 00:31:37,989 --> 00:31:35,149 matter was that this was not the only 624 00:31:43,359 --> 00:31:37,999 case where something like that happened 625 00:31:46,539 --> 00:31:43,369 and you know when the individual finally 626 00:31:50,799 --> 00:31:46,549 left their house and he walked outside 627 00:31:53,499 --> 00:31:50,809 he almost immediately disappeared gone I 628 00:31:56,950 --> 00:31:53,509 mean gone okay 629 00:31:58,960 --> 00:31:56,960 just like he vanished into thin air so 630 00:32:01,180 --> 00:31:58,970 there was something with a high degree 631 00:32:05,529 --> 00:32:01,190 of strangeness that was going on down 632 00:32:09,009 --> 00:32:05,539 there that keel had chronicled and of 633 00:32:11,769 --> 00:32:09,019 course he wrote oh my lord he wrote a 634 00:32:12,810 --> 00:32:11,779 number of books where he talked about 635 00:32:16,980 --> 00:32:12,820 cases 636 00:32:20,249 --> 00:32:16,990 like this and that's basically where he 637 00:32:22,470 --> 00:32:20,259 was coming from and his explanation for 638 00:32:25,710 --> 00:32:22,480 why they might have been mutilating 639 00:32:28,499 --> 00:32:25,720 these animals and taking other items 640 00:32:31,799 --> 00:32:28,509 like blood now I heard another theory 641 00:32:35,210 --> 00:32:31,809 back then about the missing blood and 642 00:32:39,019 --> 00:32:35,220 this was one of the staples in in 643 00:32:42,930 --> 00:32:39,029 mutilation cases especially with cattle 644 00:32:45,360 --> 00:32:42,940 if it was a genuine mutilation almost 645 00:32:48,389 --> 00:32:45,370 invariably the blood would seemingly 646 00:32:52,320 --> 00:32:48,399 disappear who was exsanguinated from the 647 00:32:54,360 --> 00:32:52,330 from the carcass and there were stories 648 00:32:58,009 --> 00:32:54,370 that were floating around and even made 649 00:33:03,840 --> 00:32:58,019 it into the pages of numerous newspapers 650 00:33:09,200 --> 00:33:03,850 that there was a process where bovine 651 00:33:13,409 --> 00:33:09,210 blood cattle blood okay could be used 652 00:33:17,669 --> 00:33:13,419 the the plasma at any rate in the event 653 00:33:21,810 --> 00:33:17,679 of a national emergency all right this 654 00:33:23,340 --> 00:33:21,820 could be used as a blood substitute so 655 00:33:26,249 --> 00:33:23,350 there were a lot of people with a lot of 656 00:33:28,740 --> 00:33:26,259 theories on what this all may have been 657 00:33:32,279 --> 00:33:28,750 but those were just a couple of them 658 00:33:35,879 --> 00:33:32,289 that I came across in the years well now 659 00:33:38,070 --> 00:33:35,889 let's talk about your background as in 660 00:33:40,639 --> 00:33:38,080 law enforcement because I'm sure that 661 00:33:43,379 --> 00:33:40,649 really helped you with all the type of 662 00:33:47,789 --> 00:33:43,389 the research you did in the following 663 00:33:49,950 --> 00:33:47,799 years yeah sure it did and is that how 664 00:33:51,360 --> 00:33:49,960 you conduct did you conduct your these 665 00:33:54,330 --> 00:33:51,370 cases that you were researching 666 00:33:58,190 --> 00:33:54,340 basically the same way as you would in 667 00:34:01,230 --> 00:33:58,200 your profession absolutely absolutely 668 00:34:05,460 --> 00:34:01,240 over the years you know I mean that 669 00:34:08,700 --> 00:34:05,470 that's one knack if I if I can you know 670 00:34:12,149 --> 00:34:08,710 be so specific that I always thought was 671 00:34:15,270 --> 00:34:12,159 of great benefit to me over the years 672 00:34:18,089 --> 00:34:15,280 I've interviewed and investigated 673 00:34:20,040 --> 00:34:18,099 hundreds and I'm not just talking about 674 00:34:22,680 --> 00:34:20,050 UFOs I'm talking about when I was 675 00:34:25,649 --> 00:34:22,690 involved in in Criminal Investigations 676 00:34:28,740 --> 00:34:25,659 mm-hmm cases 677 00:34:30,990 --> 00:34:28,750 where you know we we would go out and we 678 00:34:34,859 --> 00:34:31,000 would be looking for a perpetrator to a 679 00:34:39,799 --> 00:34:34,869 crime in it they the crimes Rea ranged 680 00:34:44,549 --> 00:34:39,809 from narcotics to staffs 681 00:34:48,359 --> 00:34:44,559 robberies homicides rapes you know it's 682 00:34:51,059 --> 00:34:48,369 it's just the whole spectrum of the 683 00:34:52,529 --> 00:34:51,069 types of things that you know that cops 684 00:34:57,900 --> 00:34:52,539 come across every day 685 00:35:02,160 --> 00:34:57,910 and I'm not going to say I was a hundred 686 00:35:05,700 --> 00:35:02,170 percent always on the money but I could 687 00:35:10,740 --> 00:35:05,710 generally tell if somebody were trying 688 00:35:14,190 --> 00:35:10,750 to spin a story on me and when it came 689 00:35:17,160 --> 00:35:14,200 to the UFO field that was generally a 690 00:35:20,150 --> 00:35:17,170 great benefit I'll never forget back 691 00:35:24,210 --> 00:35:20,160 when Vicky my wife Vicky who was the 692 00:35:27,420 --> 00:35:24,220 founder of UFO magazine and I were 693 00:35:31,319 --> 00:35:27,430 publishing we were our offices were in 694 00:35:35,010 --> 00:35:31,329 Sunland California and I had

said but I just came 706 00:36:16,710 --> 00:36:12,510 across the guy who was out in the 707 00:36:20,700 --> 00:36:16,720 California desert close to the Nevada 708 00:36:26,180 --> 00:36:20,710 border and there's a very famous area 709 00:36:27,299 --> 00:36:26,190 out there Martin called Zzyzx Road okay 710 00:36:30,180 --> 00:36:27,309 hmm 711 00:36:34,260 --> 00:36:30,190 and it's a very spooky spot and a number 712 00:36:36,539 --> 00:36:34,270 of years ago excuse me my very close 713 00:36:38,580 --> 00:36:36,549 friend and Friday night co-host on my 714 00:36:41,930 -->

--> 00:36:49,240 investigation on and on the way back we 718 00:36:55,020 --> 00:36:52,780 had a rather amazing sighting we had 719 00:36:58,560 --> 00:36:55,030 pulled off on this 720 00:37:02,940 --> 00:36:58,570 Zzyzx Road for a comfort stop okay 721 00:37:05,250 --> 00:37:02,950 and we had an amazing UFO sighting out 722 00:37:09,930 --> 00:37:05,260 there this was in the middle of the 723 00:37:12,470 --> 00:37:09,940 night and in the desert it was it was 724 00:37:16,320 --> 00:37:12,480 rather extraordinary but at any rate my 725 00:37:18,510 --> 00:37:16,330 producer friend told me about this guy 726 00:37:21,150 --> 00:37:18,520 that lived out in that area so I said 727 00:37:23,250 --> 00:37:21,160 well Russ I said what was the story what 728 00:37:26,310 --> 00:37:23,260 did

00:37:32,410 well this is what the guy claimed he 732 00:37:37,770 --> 00:37:33,970 said he was sitting in his living room 733 00:37:39,630 --> 00:37:37,780 and he was watching TV and he had his 734 00:37:42,600 --> 00:37:39,640 Polaroid camera there was a Polaroid 735 00:37:45,330 --> 00:37:42,610 photograph by the way you know the 736 00:37:47,580 --> 00:37:45,340 Instamatic thing yeah shot and it would 737 00:37:52,350 --> 00:37:47,590 slip out and a minute or so later you'd 738 00:37:54,450 --> 00:37:52,360 have a have a photo and he said while he 739 00:38:00,630 --> 00:37:54,460 was sitting there he thought he could 740 00:38:03,510 --> 00:38:00,640 feel eyes upon him and he said he turned 741 00:38:06,060 --> 00:38:03,520 around and looked out the window and he 742 00:38:09,630 --> 00:38:06,070 said what he told me Don was that there 743 00:38:13,080 --> 00:38:09,640 was a gray alien out there staring at 744 00:38:15,560 --> 00:38:13,090 him through the window and he grabbed 745 00:38:21,170 --> 00:38:15,570 the camera and he took a picture of it 746 00:38:25,110 --> 00:38:21,180 well I got to tell you my BS indicator 747 00:38:27,140 --> 00:38:25,120 started clanging and I said okay I mean 748 00:38:30,300 --> 00:38:27,150 you you never want to go into any any 749 00:38:34,140 --> 00:38:30,310 situation Martin if you're an honest 750 00:38:38,310 --> 00:38:34,150 legitimate researcher investigator and 751 00:38:41,070 --> 00:38:38,320 allow your preconceived notions okay to 752 00:38:43,830 --> 00:38:41,080 to control what you do I mean that's not 753 00:38:46,980 --> 00:38:43,840 what an investigator does now you may 754 00:38:50,400 --> 00:38:46,990 have suspicions and believe me when I 755 00:38:52,200 --> 00:38:50,410 heard that story I did but you you 756 00:38:54,690 --> 00:38:52,210 follow it through to conclusion 757 00:38:59,250 --> 00:38:54,700 so my buddy said I'll bring the photo 758 00:39:01,800 --> 00:38:59,260 over to you and I

this photograph and I looked at it and 762 00:39:14,460 --> 00:39:11,520 it was kind of a blurry image and yeah 763 00:39:20,070 --> 00:39:14,470 it sure looked like a gray but that 764 00:39:25,170 --> 00:39:20,080 wasn't all on on the picture it looked 765 00:39:28,650 --> 00:39:25,180 like somebody had vomited on this 766 00:39:31,950 --> 00:39:28,660 photograph and then wiped it off I kid 767 00:39:34,380 --> 00:39:31,960 you not so I looked at Russ and I said 768 00:39:37,470 --> 00:39:34,390 Russ I said what is that stuff he said 769 00:39:39,270 --> 00:39:37,480 well he said when he he

first looked at the photograph he 773 00:39:54,180 --> 00:39:47,980 said he was so shocked that he won and 774 00:39:57,480 --> 00:39:54,190 he blew cereal on it so we took that 775 00:39:59,760 --> 00:39:57,490 photograph and Russ had some equipment I 776 00:40:02,760 --> 00:39:59,770 had some equipment we started examining 777 00:40:05,339 --> 00:40:02,770 this and I said well I want to talk to

industry magazine had this 806 00:42:12,529 --> 00:42:07,779 full-page ad which used the UFO ET theme 807 00:42:16,859 --> 00:42:12,539 in this ad and I mean they had on the 808 00:42:20,729 --> 00:42:16,869 photograph a large representation of a 809 00:42:24,749 --> 00:42:20,739 typical gray alien and I looked at that 810 00:42:28,079 --> 00:42:24,759 picture I'm talking about in the 811 00:42:30,930 --> 00:42:28,089 magazine and I looked at this this 812 00:42:35,189 --> 00:42:30,940 photograph that Russ had brought to me 813 00:42:38,609 --> 00:42:35,199 and they were identical this guy was 814 00:42:41,939 --> 00:42:38,619 trying to float a hoax where he 815 00:42:44,069 --> 00:42:41,949 apparently had a copy of that got the 816 00:42:46,799 --> 00:42:44,079 alien out of it okay 817 00:42:51,420 --> 00:42:46,809 then threw some screens or something 818 00:42:53,160 --> 00:42:51,430 shot this Polaroid photograph and I mean 819 00:42:56,009 --> 00:42:53,170 you know those are the kind of things 820 00:42:59,519 --> 00:42:56,019 that that you run into all the time and 821 00:43:02,189 --> 00:42:59,529 but we were able to bust it at the 822 00:43:03,989 --> 00:43:02,199 source and then I had my answer why this 823 00:43:06,180 --> 00:43:03,999 guy didn't even want to talk to me on 824 00:43:09,959 --> 00:43:06,190 the on the telephone much less meet me 825 00:43:13,469 --> 00:43:09,969 so Wow that's the kind of stuff that we 826 00:43:16,229 --> 00:43:13,479 would do and you know we we would bust 827 00:43:19,560 --> 00:43:16,239 yeah well that that is an amazing one 828 00:43:21,750 --> 00:43:19,570 and let's talk about when you 829 00:43:24,120 --> 00:43:21,760 the magazine what that was like I mean 830 00:43:27,000 --> 00:43:24,130 that's that is grueling with deadlines 831 00:43:31,200 --> 00:43:27,010 and everything isn't it oh yeah yeah it 832 00:43:33,720 --> 00:43:31,210 sure was but I'll tell you it was one of 833 00:43:37,290 --> 00:43:33,730 the jobs the few jobs in my life that I 834 00:43:40,230 --> 00:43:37,300 actually I looked forward to bouncing 835 00:43:43,470 --> 00:43:40,240 out of bed in the morning and going to 836 00:43:46,380 --> 00:43:43,480 work because it was fascinating hmm 837 00:43:50,100 --> 00:43:46,390 not only did I get a chance to meet 838 00:43:54,780 --> 00:43:50,110 literally people from all over the globe 839 00:43:58,380 --> 00:43:54,790 all around the world okay but some of 840 00:44:01,380 --> 00:43:58,390 the most fascinating cases and some of 841 00:44:06,120 --> 00:44:01,390 the most fascinating hoaxes you could 842 00:44:09,240 --> 00:44:06,130 ever hope to encounter Wow and so this 843 00:44:12,840 --> 00:44:09,250 is going back you know kind of like the 844 00:44:15,690 --> 00:44:12,850 during the birth of the internet about 845 00:44:20,010 --> 00:44:15,700 that same time isn't it so oh yeah yeah 846 00:44:21,480 --> 00:44:20,020 and you know I'd like to talk I don't 847 00:44:24,690 --> 00:44:21,490 know if that's gonna be this hour in X 848 00:44:29,520 --> 00:44:24,700 hour about you know all the UFO hoaxes 849 00:44:32,190 --> 00:44:29,530 on YouTube it's almost it's almost we 850 00:44:34,890 --> 00:44:32,200 I've talked to actually other old 851 00:44:37,380 --> 00:44:34,900 longtime researchers about this and 852 00:44:41,880 --> 00:44:37,390 forming a group that would basically 853 00:44:44,970 --> 00:44:41,890 call out hoaxes and that would be that 854 00:44:48,300 --> 00:44:44,980 would be very difficult to do especially 855 00:44:52,980 --> 00:44:48,310 these days as we've all been watching 856 00:44:56,520 --> 00:44:52,990 technology grow and grow and CGI and and 857 00:44:58,140 --> 00:44:56,530 then in today's world it's harder and 858 00:45:00,690 --> 00:44:58,150 harder as what I'm I'm getting yeah 859 00:45:02,570 --> 00:45:00,700 here's the bottom line on a lot of that 860 00:45:07,700 --> 00:45:02,580 yes you are correct 861 00:45:10,950 --> 00:45:07,710 CGI today is in some cases almost 862 00:45:13,890 --> 00:45:10,960 indistinguishable from reality but 863 00:45:19,590 --> 00:45:13,900 here's something else and I've heard 864 00:45:25,610 --> 00:45:19,600 very few people mention this okay I was 865 00:45:30,870 --> 00:45:25,620 involved in a case back in the very late 866 00:45:34,019 --> 00:45:30,880 1980s very very early 1990s 867 00:45:38,160 --> 00:45:34,029 that in that was involved and ended up 868 00:45:43,440 --> 00:45:38,170 being the f-117 stealth fighter case all 869 00:45:50,549 --> 00:45:43,450 right now one of the people that that I 870 00:45:54,329 --> 00:45:50,559 knew then and was an invaluable source 871 00:45:57,150 --> 00:45:54,339 of technology was a guy that worked for 872 00:46:01,410 --> 00:45:57,160 Aerojet well an aerospace company out 873 00:46:06,809 --> 00:46:01,420 here in Southern California and this guy 874 00:46:11,309 --> 00:46:06,819 had a B of his bonnet about the UFO 875 00:46:14,370 --> 00:46:11,319 thing and he was continuously snowing 876 00:46:17,819 --> 00:46:14,380 the DoD and the Air Force and other 877 00:46:26,279 --> 00:46:17,829 government agencies including the CIA 878 00:46:30,349 --> 00:46:26,289 and the NSA with FOIA requests I mean a 879 00:46:36,029 --> 00:46:30,359 literal snowstorm that went on for years 880 00:46:39,539 --> 00:46:36,039 and this was a case that that I broke in 881 00:46:41,880 --> 00:46:39,549 the pages of UFO magazine and on my 882 00:46:45,420 --> 00:46:41,890 original radio show 883 00:46:50,430 --> 00:46:45,430 UFOs tonight which was on the CRN 884 00:46:55,339 --> 00:46:50,440 Network okay and what they did they 885 00:46:59,480 --> 00:46:55,349 being the government set this guy up 886 00:47:03,900 --> 00:46:59,490 with an Air Force general incommunicado 887 00:47:08,670 --> 00:47:03,910 and an FBI agent came to his place of 888 00:47:11,249 --> 00:47:08,680 business deliberately exposed him to 889 00:47:14,039 --> 00:47:11,259 classified information that he did not 890 00:47:19,259 --> 00:47:14,049 have a need to know and then tried to 891 00:47:24,890 --> 00:47:19,269 get him fired okay now it involved the 892 00:47:27,980 --> 00:47:24,900 f-117 just before the f-117 went public 893 00:47:33,059 --> 00:47:27,990 so I guess they felt safe in doing that 894 00:47:37,259 --> 00:47:33,069 now this is the kind of stuff the red 895 00:47:39,690 --> 00:47:37,269 meat that I sunk my teeth in now when I 896 00:47:42,539 --> 00:47:39,700 was in the military okay 897 00:47:44,610 --> 00:47:42,549 I was a Vietnam veteran I was in the 898 00:47:47,220 --> 00:47:44,620 military I was involved in military 899 00:47:50,250 --> 00:47:47,230 intelligence I had a top secret 900 00:47:53,340 --> 00:47:50,260 clearance with a crypto access now all 901 00:47:58,920 --> 00:47:53,350 that meant was in the course of my 902 00:48:02,550 --> 00:47:58,930 duties if I had a need to know certain 903 00:48:06,030 --> 00:48:02,560 classified information I could be given 904 00:48:09,510 --> 00:48:06,040 that classified information because it 905 00:48:13,350 --> 00:48:09,520 was involved in whatever it was I was 906 00:48:17,460 --> 00:48:13,360 doing however if I did not have a need 907 00:48:20,630 --> 00:48:17,470 to know then that TSC clearance meant no 908 00:48:23,820 --> 00:48:20,640 more to me than it would do you okay 909 00:48:25,410 --> 00:48:23,830 in other words if I didn't have I need 910 00:48:30,260 --> 00:48:25,420 to know I wouldn't be shown the 911 00:48:34,560 --> 00:48:30,270 information that cut-and-dried now the 912 00:48:36,720 --> 00:48:34,570 f-117 was actually an aircraft that had 913 00:48:45,860 --> 00:48:36,730 its development all the way back in the 914 00:48:49,620 --> 00:48:45,870 1970s now my point is that aircraft 915 00:48:54,540 --> 00:48:49,630 technology what we see flying around in 916 00:49:00,080 --> 00:48:54,550 the skies any day of the week ok if you 917 00:49:03,600 --> 00:49:00,090 think that that is the cutting edge that 918 00:49:05,250 --> 00:49:03,610 aerospace is working on then I'm going 919 00:49:07,350 --> 00:49:05,260 to let you go back to you to your 920 00:49:11,760 --> 00:49:07,360 correspondence with the Easter Bunny and 921 00:49:14,970 --> 00:49:11,770 Santa Claus because anything that we see 922 00:49:19,710 --> 00:49:14,980 flying the cutting edge and you can take 923 00:49:24,270 --> 00:49:19,720 this to the bank is at least 30 years or 924 00:49:25,080 --> 00:49:24,280 more in advance of what you're seeing my 925 00:49:29,510 --> 00:49:25,090 god 926 00:49:33,230 --> 00:49:29,520 the sr-71 the Blackbird ok the aircraft 927 00:49:39,470 --> 00:49:33,240 that I used to watch flying out of 928 00:49:45,270 --> 00:49:39,480 Okinawa ok to go to North Vietnam China 929 00:49:48,930 --> 00:49:45,280 Korea ok was an aircraft that's still 930 00:49:51,270 --> 00:49:48,940 today officially its speed record or its 931 00:49:54,680 --> 00:49:51,280 height that it could fly at has never 932 00:49:58,470 --> 00:49:54,690 been broken although I'm sure it has but 933 00:50:01,260 --> 00:49:58,480 officially this aircraft is still 934 00:50:03,780 --> 00:50:01,270 faster higher than anything else flying 935 00:50:07,050 --> 00:50:03,790 that was developed in the 1950s 936 00:50:10,920 --> 00:50:07,060 now do you honestly believe that that 937 00:50:13,590 --> 00:50:10,930 was the cutting edge I mean and that was 938 00:50:16,500 --> 00:50:13,600 all the way back then what we have today 939 00:50:18,810 --> 00:50:16,510 for all I know they're working on an 940 00:50:22,370 --> 00:50:18,820 interstellar Drive you see what I'm 941 00:50:25,099 --> 00:50:22,380 saying so what we see in the sky today 942 00:50:29,010 --> 00:50:25,109 it's really hard to make that 943 00:50:32,700 --> 00:50:29,020 distinction between what we could be 944 00:50:35,340 --> 00:50:32,710 flying and what somebody else is flying 945 00:50:36,810 --> 00:50:35,350 now I heard what what you're your 946 00:50:41,099 --> 00:50:36,820 co-host there at the beginning of the 947 00:50:44,400 --> 00:50:41,109 program was talking about triangles cram 948 00:50:47,130 --> 00:50:44,410 it's flying around lots of them there 949 00:50:52,230 --> 00:50:47,140 have been triangle craft that has been 950 00:50:56,070 --> 00:50:52,240 flying around for 30 plus years in the 951 00:50:58,590 --> 00:50:56,080 skies above above the United States and 952 00:51:03,930 --> 00:50:58,600 other places around the world and these 953 00:51:07,950 --> 00:51:03,940 craft and I was still 15 years ago on 954 00:51:12,359 --> 00:51:07,960 good authority that these were extremely 955 00:51:16,950 --> 00:51:12,369 advanced military flying machines that 956 00:51:19,400 --> 00:51:16,960 the US Armed Forces were flying now is 957 00:51:23,400 --> 00:51:19,410 that the bottom line no of course not 958 00:51:26,400 --> 00:51:23,410 perhaps they saw something in the sky at 959 00:51:30,500 --> 00:51:26,410 one point and they tried to emulate it I 960 00:51:33,210 --> 00:51:30,510 mean that's always possible also but 961 00:51:36,540 --> 00:51:33,220 anything that you see flying that you 962 00:51:40,859 --> 00:51:36,550 think might be alien well you know these 963 00:51:42,810 --> 00:51:40,869 days it's really hard to say right the 964 00:51:46,470 --> 00:51:42,820 one thing that is very puzzling 965 00:51:48,780 --> 00:51:46,480 of course you you can hear people talk 966 00:51:51,780 --> 00:51:48,790 about they've already discovered an 967 00:51:53,520 --> 00:51:51,790 antigravity you know vehicle that's why 968 00:51:55,500 --> 00:51:53,530 that's not making any noise but that is 969 00:51:57,420 --> 00:51:55,510 the curious thing there's a lot of 970 00:52:02,430 --> 00:51:57,430 people that talk about these triangles 971 00:52:04,440 --> 00:52:02,440 that see them fairly close or as far as 972 00:52:07,620 --> 00:52:04,450 I know mostly say that they hear no 973 00:52:12,120 --> 00:52:07,630 noise at all yeah well I mean that I'm 974 00:52:16,880 --> 00:52:12,130 not surprised by that I mean the techno 975 00:52:20,220 --> 00:52:16,890 oh gee look look at our defense budget 976 00:52:24,270 --> 00:52:20,230 yearly mmm I'm talking about I'm talking 977 00:52:26,600 --> 00:52:24,280 about what is publicly discussed right 978 00:52:31,380 --> 00:52:26,610 I'm not talking about the black budget 979 00:52:36,300 --> 00:52:31,390 okay that is explained away with $5,000 980 00:52:38,370 --> 00:52:36,310 toilet seats and $3,500 hammers you know 981 00:52:41,400 --> 00:52:38,380 and a thousand-dollar screwdriver you 982 00:52:45,270 --> 00:52:41,410 know what I'm saying right so you know 983 00:52:49,140 --> 00:52:45,280 what the black budget I mean I go I go 984 00:52:53,750 --> 00:52:49,150 all the way back to 1988 when George 985 00:52:57,500 --> 00:52:53,760 Knapp broke the first story on area 51 986 00:52:58,770 --> 00:52:57,510 publicly okay and the Bob Lazar saga 987 00:53:02,880 --> 00:52:58,780 okay 988 00:53:06,110 --> 00:53:02,890 Lazar claimed was out there in those in 989 00:53:10,020 --> 00:53:06,120 those mountains in underground hangars 990 00:53:11,850 --> 00:53:10,030 is something like that possible well as 991 00:53:15,150 --> 00:53:11,860 far as I'm concerned you bet it's 992 00:53:17,850 --> 00:53:15,160 possible all right and I was was 993 00:53:21,870 --> 00:53:17,860 involved with that story almost since 994 00:53:23,400 --> 00:53:21,880 the very beginning of it and I couldn't 995 00:53:28,500 --> 00:53:23,410 tell you how many times I've talked to 996 00:53:31,950 --> 00:53:28,510 Knapp and also Lazar about that 997 00:53:33,900 --> 00:53:31,960 particular story but the bottom line to 998 00:53:37,680 --> 00:53:33,910 take away from that whether you believe 999 00:53:40,190 --> 00:53:37,690 it or not is the fact that if the 1000 00:53:44,810 --> 00:53:40,200 government had their hands on something 1001 00:53:47,970 --> 00:53:44,820

19 1997 1018 00:54:32,589 --> 00:54:30,619 Oh my wife and I okay after 11 years of 1019 00:54:35,260 --> 00:54:32,599 publishing the magazine we ran into 1020 00:54:40,210 --> 00:54:35,270 financial problems now the publishing 1021 00:54:44,020 --> 00:54:40,220 game is a very hard game okay and you've 1022 00:54:46,240 --> 00:54:44,030 got to have a lot of income because the 1023 00:54:50,950 --> 00:54:46,250 money that you're making is not the 1024 00:54:55,720 --> 00:54:50,960 money from the last issue published okay 1025 00:54:58,300 --> 00:54:55,730 you get a magazine out all right it goes 1026 00:55:01,240 --> 00:54:58,310 out to the distributor's then it goes 1027 00:55:03,040 --> 00:55:01,250 out to wherever the the subscribers it 1028 00:55:06,940 --> 00:55:03,050 goes out to the places where it's 1029 00:55:10,510 --> 00:55:06,950 distributed and you don't see any money 1030 00:55:13,960 --> 00:55:10,520 of that for at least the next two to 1031 00:55:16,420 --> 00:55:13,970 three issues so you're always running on 1032 00:55:18,960 --> 00:55:16,430 fumes you see what I'm saying oh yeah 1033 00:55:21,849 --> 00:55:18,970 the bottom line the bottom line was by 1034 00:55:27,880 --> 00:55:21,859 97 we were financially at the breaking 1035 00:55:31,990 --> 00:55:27,890 point now we knew bill birnes bill was 1036 00:55:35,800 --> 00:55:32,000 very interested in not seeing UFO 1037 00:55:41,160 --> 00:55:35,810 magazine wander he introduced us to some 1038 00:55:43,960 --> 00:55:41,170 media people in the Hollywood arena okay 1039 00:55:48,310 --> 00:55:43,970 so we took some meetings with them went 1040 00:55:49,240 --> 00:55:48,320 down and they took over the publication 1041 00:55:52,900 --> 00:55:49,250 all right 1042 00:55:55,839 --> 00:55:52,910 and kept Vicky on is the editor I was on 1043 00:55:58,660 --> 00:55:55,849 as the director of research bill was 1044 00:56:02,339 --> 00:55:58,670 listed as a publisher although at that 1045 00:56:07,180 --> 00:56:02,349 time he did not have any financial 1046 00:56:10,630 --> 00:56:07,190 considerations in it well they kept it 1047 00:56:13,660 --> 00:56:10,640 up for five years and incidentally these 1048 00:56:18,010 --> 00:56:13,670 people even though Vicky my wife and I 1049 00:56:23,220 --> 00:56:18,020 had been reading this for 10 11 years 1050 00:56:27,160 --> 00:56:23,230 all right never wanted any input from us 1051 00:56:29,500 --> 00:56:27,170 not any input I couldn't tell you how 1052 00:56:32,109 --> 00:56:29,510 many times we would go in there with 1053 00:56:34,570 --> 00:56:32,119 some ideas to do this that or something 1054 00:56:36,849 --> 00:56:34,580 else and what gets shot down so I said 1055 00:56:38,470 --> 00:56:36,859 fine you know that's I mean they're 1056 00:56:41,580 --> 00:56:38,480 they're footing the bills 1057 00:56:45,640 --> 00:56:41,590 okay let him do it well after five years 1058 00:56:49,120 --> 00:56:45,650 they basically said well we've lost too 1059 00:56:54,550 --> 00:56:49,130 much money we're going to shut the 1060 00:56:58,359 --> 00:56:54,560 magazine down however if you and Vicky 1061 00:57:00,870 --> 00:56:58,369 and Bill and his wife want to take it 1062 00:57:06,359 --> 00:57:00,880 over we'll allow you to keep publishing 1063 00:57:10,990 --> 00:57:06,369 well we did up until about 2006 however 1064 00:57:13,690 --> 00:57:11,000 up to that point it was becoming 1065 00:57:17,320 --> 00:57:13,700 increasingly harder and harder to work 1066 00:57:22,750 --> 00:57:17,330 with Bill and his wife Nancy and quite 1067 00:57:26,560 --> 00:57:22,760 frankly Nancy and I had clashed on a 1068 00:57:29,080 --> 00:57:26,570 couple of occasions over inconsequential 1069 00:57:33,460 --> 00:57:29,090 things I'm not going to go into that but 1070 00:57:37,150 --> 00:57:33,470 finally I just had my fill of it my wife 1071 00:57:41,320 --> 00:57:37,160 after 20 years had her fill of it 1072 00:57:45,040 --> 00:57:41,330 and we bailed out okay 1073 00:57:48,040 --> 00:57:45,050 in 2006 the very beginning of 2007 and 1074 00:57:52,570 --> 00:57:48,050 the burns took it on they were going to 1075 00:58:00,160 --> 00:57:52,580 be the sole publishers well they kept 1076 00:58:03,070 --> 00:58:00,170 missing deadlines and the the copy of 1077 00:58:05,230 --> 00:58:03,080 the of the magazine for the next few 1078 00:58:08,320 --> 00:58:05,240 issues they didn't have any proof 1079 00:58:11,830 --> 00:58:08,330 readers or if they did they were missing 1080 00:58:13,270 --> 00:58:11,840 stuff all the time in the proofing of 1081 00:58:16,359 --> 00:58:13,280 the magazine there were a lot of 1082 00:58:19,720 --> 00:58:16,369 egregious errors that popped up and here 1083 00:58:24,099 --> 00:58:19,730 was the other thing as you can tell I 1084 00:58:31,060 --> 00:58:24,109 was pretty factually oriented and I gave 1085 00:58:34,030 --> 00:58:31,070 short shrift to a lot of these let me 1086 00:58:36,760 --> 00:58:34,040 let me think of a very polite way to say 1087 00:58:41,109 --> 00:58:36,770 it these pie-in-the-sky unicorn 1088 00:58:45,700 --> 00:58:41,119 searching so-called UFO researchers and 1089 00:58:48,960 --> 00:58:45,710 they began running a lot of copy in the 1090 00:58:52,300 --> 00:58:48,970 magazine that I found particularly 1091 00:58:56,040 --> 00:58:52,310 offensive and when I say offense 1092 00:58:59,830 --> 00:58:56,050 I'm talking about cases that had been 1093 00:59:02,530 --> 00:58:59,840 disproven years before that suddenly 1094 00:59:07,620 --> 00:59:02,540 started popping up now I attributed that 1095 00:59:12,310 --> 00:59:07,630 to the fact that bill was an academic 1096 00:59:16,720 --> 00:59:12,320 okay Nancy who who really fancied 1097 00:59:20,740 --> 00:59:16,730 herself as an ace publisher just quite 1098 00:59:23,410 --> 00:59:20,750 simply didn't know the field like Vicki 1099 00:59:27,720 --> 00:59:23,420 and I had and they would have things in 1100 00:59:31,420 --> 00:59:27,730 there routinely like the Dulce base 1101 00:59:35,230 --> 00:59:31,430 shootout now that's a story that goes 1102 00:59:39,910 --> 00:59:35,240 back basically to Paul bennewitz right 1103 00:59:44,080 --> 00:59:39,920 could be a whole show or series of shows 1104 00:59:47,620 --> 00:59:44,090 in itself know where this poor guy was 1105 00:59:50,970 --> 00:59:47,630 dissin formed to the point where he 1106 00:59:54,100 --> 00:59:50,980 ended up in a mental hospital by 1107 00:59:57,910 --> 00:59:54,110 government disinformation agents and I 1108 01:00:00,840 --> 00:59:57,920 don't say that in a throwaway manner I'm 1109 01:00:04,150 --> 01:00:00,850 talking about actual disinformation 1110 01:00:07,290 --> 01:00:04,160 agents all right one of them named Rick 1111 01:00:12,940 --> 01:00:07,300 Doty right who's with AF OSI at the time 1112 01:00:15,610 --> 01:00:12,950 now these cases were proven hoaxes but 1113 01:00:18,490 --> 01:00:15,620 they were now making it in pages of UFO 1114 01:00:21,580 --> 01:00:18,500 magazine and I got to be honest - I was 1115 01:00:23,170 --> 01:00:21,590 not quiet about it all right when 1116 01:00:24,700 --> 01:00:23,180 something like that would happen I 1117 01:00:28,630 --> 01:00:24,710 probably should have kept my mouth shut 1118 01:00:32,200 --> 01:00:28,640 but I couldn't okay because I saw what 1119 01:00:37,990 --> 01:00:32,210 had been our baby going to hell and then 1120 01:00:40,240 --> 01:00:38,000 Nancy decided to take a year off and not 1121 01:00:44,500 --> 01:00:40,250 publish the magazine even though they 1122 01:00:46,120 --> 01:00:44,510 were still taking subscriptions okay 1123 01:00:46,870 --> 01:00:46,130 from people that were expecting a 1124 01:00:49,780 --> 01:00:46,880 magazine 1125 01:00:52,060 --> 01:00:49,790 she took a year off to write a novel and 1126 01:00:55,290 --> 01:00:52,070 not long after that the whole thing 1127 01:00:58,510 --> 01:00:55,300 folded so there it is well nutshell 1128 01:00:59,680 --> 01:00:58,520 thank you for that done and and we're 1129 01:01:01,150 --> 01:00:59,690 right at the

01:01:05,240 about how 1133 01:01:13,330 --> 01:01:09,260 a lot of times the myths become seeming 1134 01:01:14,830 --> 01:01:13,340 realities and and why people get fed up 1135 01:01:16,570 -->

been 1152 01:02:41,700 --> 01:02:38,740 around really focusing on this field 1153 01:02:45,260 --> 01:02:41,710 which is only since around 2006 or so 1154 01:02:49,500 --> 01:02:45,270 I've seen a lot of times where say 1155 01:02:50,720 --> 01:02:49,510 someone that is you and I chatted 1156 01:02:54,870 --> 01:02:50,730 quickly about this this afternoon 1157 01:02:57,420 --> 01:02:54,880 someone that say they have a book on a 1158 01:02:58,770 --> 01:02:57,430 certain case and so they've made a 1159 01:03:00,059 --> 01:02:58,780 little bit of money you know books 1160 01:03:01,470 --> 01:03:00,069 really don't make a lot of money but 1161 01:03:03,089 --> 01:03:01,480 they made some money but they're 1162 01:03:06,359 --> 01:03:03,099 dedicated to that case and then they 1163 01:03:09,000 --> 01:03:06,369 they go to different conferences and 1164 01:03:11,670 --> 01:03:09,010 that's their baby they talk about it and 1165 01:03:14,010 --> 01:03:11,680 then all of a sudden sudden some 1166 01:03:19,170 --> 01:03:14,020 evidence comes up that the whole thing 1167 01:03:21,000 --> 01:03:19,180 was explainable or maybe even a hoax or 1168 01:03:24,690 --> 01:03:21,010 something like that and they have a real 1169 01:03:26,490 --> 01:03:24,700 hard time letting go I want to I'm sure 1170 01:03:30,680 --> 01:03:26,500 you've seen this and I want to talk 1171 01:03:34,740 --> 01:03:30,690 about why this seems to happen a lot 1172 01:03:38,819 --> 01:03:34,750 absolutely and all you got to do is go 1173 01:03:41,390 --> 01:03:38,829 back to the 90s to the

flexible if new 1182 01:04:19,839 --> 01:04:16,440 information surfaces new factual 1183 01:04:23,809 --> 01:04:19,849 information that prove that the 1184 01:04:29,390 --> 01:04:23,819 assumption you were working on is all 1185 01:04:32,690 --> 01:04:29,400 wrong is wet is not tenable anymore you 1186 01:04:35,349 --> 01:04:32,700 have to be willing to discard that and 1187 01:04:38,359 --> 01:04:35,359 work with the new information and people 1188 01:04:42,739 --> 01:04:38,369 enlarge are not willing to do that they 1189 01:04:46,309 --> 01:04:42,749 have too much of themselves too much of 1190 01:04:49,430 --> 01:04:46,319 their ego too much of their personal 1191 01:04:52,279 --> 01:04:49,440 belief system embedded in these things 1192 01:04:55,249 --> 01:04:52,289 there's a guy on on the circuit he's a 1193 01:04:58,430 --> 01:04:55,259 perennial been around forever by the 1194 01:05:02,839 --> 01:04:58,440 name of Mike horn who a proponent of the 1195 01:05:06,319 -->

1198 01:05:14,450 --> 01:05:11,579 the Maier material is real it's real 1199 01:05:17,059 --> 01:05:14,460 it's real it's real and just interrupt 1200 01:05:19,370 --> 01:05:17,069 you for a quick second he has tried to 1201 01:05:20,059 --> 01:05:19,380 invite himself on this show on a number 1202 01:05:23,630 --> 01:05:20,069 of times 1203 01:05:27,859 --> 01:05:23,640 and I almost accept it just to just to 1204 01:05:30,559 --> 01:05:27,869 hear it but I actually asked him not you 1205 01:05:33,559 --> 01:05:30,569 know I didn't invite him on but he has 1206 01:05:35,749 --> 01:05:33,569 contacted us about yeah well three four 1207 01:05:37,759 --> 01:05:35,759 times he was in my back pocket and then 1208 01:05:40,190 --> 01:05:37,769 he tried to get on by trying to insult 1209 01:05:44,509 --> 01:05:40,200 me and I just said look pal let me tell 1210 01:05:47,210 --> 01:05:44,519 you how it is no okay no and that was 1211 01:05:49,670 --> 01:05:47,220 the end of it but here's here's a case 1212 01:05:52,489 --> 01:05:49,680 and believe me Mike horn is not the only 1213 01:05:56,599 --> 01:05:52,499 guy but here's a case where you know 1214 01:06:00,470 --> 01:05:56,609 regardless of how much factual 1215 01:06:03,400 --> 01:06:00,480 information documentation evidence that 1216 01:06:06,920 --> 01:06:03,410 you throw at them that this case is not 1217 01:06:10,549 --> 01:06:06,930 tenable he'll never accept it he has too 1218 01:06:13,089 --> 01:06:10,559 much invested in it and that's been one 1219 01:06:17,599 --> 01:06:13,099 of the problems all across the spectrum 1220 01:06:21,829 --> 01:06:17,609 one of the first one of the very first 1221 01:06:26,829 --> 01:06:21,839 exposes that I did in the pages of UFO 1222 01:06:31,190 --> 01:06:26,839 magazine was a guy at the time that was 1223 01:06:34,099 --> 01:06:31,200 extraordinarily hot on the circuit fella 1224 01:06:36,940 --> 01:06:34,109 by the name of Milton William Cooper now 1225 01:06:38,710 --> 01:06:36,950 bill Cooper as he was commonly known 1226 01:06:44,210 --> 01:06:38,720 okay 1227 01:06:47,839 --> 01:06:44,220 had a long and colorful career and would 1228 01:06:51,079 --> 01:06:47,849 make a flip-flop at a seconds notice 1229 01:06:53,779 --> 01:06:51,089 when he first surfaced in July of 1988 1230 01:06:56,720 --> 01:06:53,789 he surfaced on the old perronnette 1231 01:07:01,220 --> 01:06:56,730 computer information service okay which 1232 01:07:05,680 --> 01:07:01,230 was basically for all those those much 1233 01:07:10,819 --> 01:07:05,690 newer people out here was the petri dish 1234 01:07:13,400 --> 01:07:10,829 that you now are inhabiting this was 1235 01:07:18,799 --> 01:07:13,410 before the open free internet this was a 1236 01:07:21,920 --> 01:07:18,809 BBS system that scanned the globe all 1237 01:07:26,029 --> 01:07:21,930 across the United States in Europe in 1238 01:07:30,200 --> 01:07:26,039 Australia in Japan my god even in Russia 1239 01:07:33,319 --> 01:07:30,210 were perronnette notes and back in the 1240 01:07:36,710 --> 01:07:33,329 day that's how all these cases were 1241 01:07:40,519 --> 01:07:36,720 being sent around exposed to the public 1242 01:07:44,239 --> 01:07:40,529 and being discussed now he came on 1243 01:07:46,819 --> 01:07:44,249 that's that system on the original 1244 01:07:50,059 --> 01:07:46,829 perronnette note down in Fountain Hills 1245 01:07:51,710 --> 01:07:50,069 Arizona the incidentally perronnette was 1246 01:07:52,519 --> 01:07:51,720 started by a guy by the name of Jim 1247 01:07:55,549 --> 01:07:52,529 speiser 1248 01:08:00,170 --> 01:07:55,559 who later a year or two later turned it 1249 01:08:06,009 --> 01:08:00,180 over to Michael Corbin okay who was 1250 01:08:09,519 --> 01:08:06,019 another name known years later as a 1251 01:08:15,550 --> 01:08:09,529 radio host that really took on a lot of 1252 01:08:19,640 --> 01:08:15,560 conspiratorial topics on his show but 1253 01:08:24,590 --> 01:08:19,650 the original story came out that in 1966 1254 01:08:30,260 --> 01:08:24,600 Cooper as a u.s. naval sailor on board a 1255 01:08:31,049 --> 01:08:30,270 diesel submarine the USS Cairo was on 1256 01:08:34,579 --> 01:08:31,059 look 1257 01:08:39,299 --> 01:08:34,589 one morning I believe and he saw this 1258 01:08:43,249 --> 01:08:39,309 gigantic and I'm talking about big okay 1259 01:08:47,129 --> 01:08:43,259 I'm not talking about the size of a 1260 01:08:50,010 --> 01:08:47,139 Greyhound bus I'm talking about as he 1261 01:08:54,240 --> 01:08:50,020 described it the size of an aircraft 1262 01:08:58,470 --> 01:08:54,250 carrier UFO that came blowing out of the 1263 01:09:01,529 --> 01:08:58,480 ocean up into the sky and then a while 1264 01:09:04,890 --> 01:09:01,539 later another one or perhaps the same 1265 01:09:09,260 --> 01:09:04,900 one came back down and re-entered the 1266 01:09:14,760 --> 01:09:09,270 the water now that was originally his 1267 01:09:17,419 --> 01:09:14,770 story okay but then as that garnered 1268 01:09:21,539 --> 01:09:17,429 quite a bit of attention the story 1269 01:09:24,029 --> 01:09:21,549 continued to grow and I'm not going to 1270 01:09:28,769 --> 01:09:24,039 go through all the variations of it but 1271 01:09:32,669 --> 01:09:28,779 one of the hot topics of the day was 1272 01:09:35,970 --> 01:09:32,679 Bill Moore and Jamie Chandra's mj-12 1273 01:09:39,680 --> 01:09:35,980 documents okay are you familiar with 1274 01:09:43,410 --> 01:09:39,690 that yeah all right the mj-12 documents 1275 01:09:47,010 --> 01:09:43,420 and according to Cooper at this time he 1276 01:09:51,539 --> 01:09:47,020 could verify all of it well later when 1277 01:09:56,910 --> 01:09:51,549 the mj-12 documents blew up basically 1278 01:09:59,970 --> 01:09:56,920 blew up in Cooper immediately did a 180 1279 01:10:03,930 --> 01:09:59,980 and started going on about how they were 1280 01:10:04,350 --> 01:10:03,940 all disinformation and he knew it all 1281 01:10:08,270 --> 01:10:04,360 along 1282 01:10:12,060 --> 01:10:08,280 and his story kept flip-flopping and 1283 01:10:17,819 --> 01:10:12,070 changing and the things that he was 1284 01:10:22,290 --> 01:10:17,829 involved in so it all cumulated with the 1285 01:10:28,140 --> 01:10:22,300 Bob Lazar story all right this is when I 1286 01:10:32,640 --> 01:10:28,150 got involved back in 1988 and this was 1287 01:10:37,470 --> 01:10:32,650 before I started my radio broadcasting 1288 01:10:40,799 --> 01:10:37,480 in 91 and before art bell was on the air 1289 01:10:44,030 --> 01:10:40,809 art bell at that time was doing 1290 01:10:47,910 --> 01:10:44,040 political talk radio on satellite 1291 01:10:50,370 --> 01:10:47,920 okay there was a guy out of Las Vegas by 1292 01:10:52,200 --> 01:10:50,380 the name of Billy Goodman he had a radio 1293 01:10:56,990 --> 01:10:52,210 program called the Billy Goodman 1294 01:11:01,320 --> 01:10:57,000 happening and when the Lazar story broke 1295 01:11:04,290 --> 01:11:01,330 Goodman was able through I mean Vegas is 1296 01:11:06,510 --> 01:11:04,300 a very small town may look big but 1297 01:11:08,880 --> 01:11:06,520 believe me it's a small town and 1298 01:11:12,890 --> 01:11:08,890 everybody worth knowing anybody knows 1299 01:11:16,290 --> 01:11:12,900 everybody and Goodman got in touch with 1300 01:11:21,390 --> 01:11:16,300 George Knapp and they were able to get 1301 01:11:25,500 --> 01:11:21,400 Lazar and Jean huh Lazar is friend on 1302 01:11:29,010 --> 01:11:25,510 his show and dad exploded and on that 1303 01:11:32,370 --> 01:11:29,020 first show one of the Collins was bill 1304 01:11:34,500 --> 01:11:32,380 Cooper now bill Cooper then and you've 1305 01:11:36,840 --> 01:11:34,510 got to have some background in this 1306 01:11:39,450 --> 01:11:36,850 Martin I have no idea how much 1307 01:11:44,160 --> 01:11:39,460 background you have but one of the 1308 01:11:46,770 --> 01:11:44,170 players at that time was John Lear John 1309 01:11:51,630 --> 01:11:46,780 Lear son of William layer of Learjet 1310 01:11:54,390 --> 01:11:51,640 corporate corporation John was then one 1311 01:11:57,870 --> 01:11:54,400 of the major UFO players on the UFO 1312 01:12:00,330 --> 01:11:57,880 stage he was being courted and talented 1313 01:12:04,920 --> 01:12:00,340 all across the country he was still 1314 01:12:07,140 --> 01:12:04,930 flying commercial then he was a pilot he 1315 01:12:09,480 --> 01:12:07,150 was still flying commercially he was 1316 01:12:13,020 --> 01:12:09,490 flying as a matter of fact a lot of 1317 01:12:17,640 --> 01:12:13,030 freight but he would be invited to these 1318 01:12:21,090 --> 01:12:17,650 UFO conferences all across the United 1319 01:12:24,870 --> 01:12:21,100 States and he was a big draw at the time 1320 01:12:27,960 --> 01:12:24,880 well through Goodman and George Knapp 1321 01:12:31,140 --> 01:12:27,970 and John Lear and there were others some 1322 01:12:36,240 --> 01:12:31,150 both famous and infamous names 1323 01:12:40,200 --> 01:12:36,250 associated with this Lazar flew Goodman 1324 01:12:42,060 --> 01:12:40,210 show right out of the water suddenly he 1325 01:12:45,780 --> 01:12:42,070 was in Billy Goodman was in a national 1326 01:12:49,170 --> 01:12:45,790 spotlight and his show really took off 1327 01:12:51,540 --> 01:12:49,180 now if you're not familiar with Billy 1328 01:12:54,540 --> 01:12:51,550 Goodman you got to do a little research 1329 01:12:57,180 --> 01:12:54,550 on them because I can remember sitting 1330 01:12:59,490 --> 01:12:57,190 here in LA and I could tune 1331 01:13:03,479 --> 01:12:59,500 in his show the matter of fact I had a 1332 01:13:06,780 --> 01:13:03,489 rather infamous happening one night on 1333 01:13:11,430 --> 01:13:06,790 his show when he had bill Cooper on as a 1334 01:13:15,000 --> 01:13:11,440 guest right after my first part one of 1335 01:13:20,640 --> 01:13:15,010 my expose Helen Cooper first you know 1336 01:13:25,380 --> 01:13:20,650 hit the newsstands but at any rate he 1337 01:13:28,890 --> 01:13:25,390 called a Goodman show and just ranted 1338 01:13:31,290 --> 01:13:28,900 and raved about what a true patriot what 1339 01:13:34,590 --> 01:13:31,300 a wonderful human being what a 1340 01:13:37,380 --> 01:13:34,600 courageous guy the guy that was thumbing 1341 01:13:41,310 --> 01:13:37,390 his nose at the whole secret government 1342 01:13:43,920 --> 01:13:41,320 blah blah blah and I mean I've got I've 1343 01:13:46,950 --> 01:13:43,930 got a copy of that which was a good 1344 01:13:50,100 --> 01:13:46,960 thing I saved that later in retrospect 1345 01:13:53,160 --> 01:13:50,110 but I have a copy of that just counting 1346 01:13:59,780 --> 01:13:53,170 how all red white and blue Bob Lazar 1347 01:14:07,610 --> 01:13:59,790 really was well not long after that okay 1348 01:14:11,130 --> 01:14:07,620 George Knapp had had also a talk show 1349 01:14:13,470 --> 01:14:11,140 television talk show down in Vegas and 1350 01:14:16,200 --> 01:14:13,480 he would occasionally bring on 1351 01:14:18,510 --> 01:14:16,210 newsmakers and whatever the flavor of 1352 01:14:21,689 --> 01:14:18,520 the day was would interview them on his 1353 01:14:24,150 --> 01:14:21,699 show and he brought in John Lear and 1354 01:14:29,670 --> 01:14:24,160 Bill Cooper now the other thing that 1355 01:14:36,840 --> 01:14:29,680 Cooper then was known for was the JFK 1356 01:14:41,459 --> 01:14:36,850 assassination now when I first met John 1357 01:14:46,560 --> 01:14:41,469 Lear in November of 1988 this was after 1358 01:14:53,850 --> 01:14:46,570 my entree into the UFO field I had 1359 01:14:58,530 --> 01:14:53,860 called John John had just recently put a 1360 01:15:01,229 --> 01:14:58,540 file up on the perronnette computer 1361 01:15:07,020 --> 01:15:01,239 service which then ended up on 1362 01:15:10,080 --> 01:15:07,030 CompuServe which was his original it's 1363 01:15:11,040 --> 01:15:10,090 now known as the John Lear document his 1364 01:15:15,090 --> 01:15:11,050 original four 1365 01:15:17,190 --> 01:15:15,100 and paper on the whole UFO thing now I'm 1366 01:15:21,420 --> 01:15:17,200 not gonna bore you with all the details 1367 01:15:26,250 --> 01:15:21,430 but the crux of it was that when he put 1368 01:15:32,640 --> 01:15:26,260 that document up the UFO field ignited 1369 01:15:35,130 --> 01:15:32,650 now it had been not exactly even killed 1370 01:15:39,540 --> 01:15:35,140 up to that point I mean there had been 1371 01:15:42,720 --> 01:15:39,550 cases that have been coming up but two 1372 01:15:48,330 --> 01:15:42,730 things cause the UFO field to ignite 1373 01:15:50,850 --> 01:15:48,340 then we're talking about 88-89 bill 1374 01:15:54,290 --> 01:15:50,860 Moore and Jamie shonduras mj-12 1375 01:15:59,310 --> 01:15:54,300 documents and the John Lear paper and 1376 01:16:04,920 --> 01:15:59,320 suddenly the UFO field divided into 1377 01:16:10,380 --> 01:16:04,930 almost armed camps and the sniping and 1378 01:16:15,600 --> 01:16:10,390 the fire and you know the flaming on the 1379 01:16:20,670 --> 01:16:15,610 nascent web went into overdrive now when 1380 01:16:24,840 --> 01:16:20,680 all that happened bill Cooper basically 1381 01:16:27,860 --> 01:16:24,850 made his appearance and it looked from 1382 01:16:34,020 --> 01:16:27,870 afar that he and John Lear had basically 1383 01:16:39,690 --> 01:16:34,030 allied themselves together however after 1384 01:16:42,510 --> 01:16:39,700 this happened John Lear was invited on 1385 01:16:46,560 --> 01:16:42,520 bill or I'm sorry on George Knapp's 1386 01:16:49,440 --> 01:16:46,570 program and he basically had said a 1387 01:16:52,950 --> 01:16:49,450 couple of things that angered and 1388 01:16:55,610 --> 01:16:52,960 enraged Cooper about Cooper's 1389 01:16:59,130 --> 01:16:55,620 information because it was obvious that 1390 01:17:02,580 --> 01:16:59,140 Cooper was by then plagiarizing and 1391 01:17:05,580 --> 01:17:02,590 fabricating information now prior to 1392 01:17:09,350 --> 01:17:05,590 that happening Lear had been approached 1393 01:17:12,990 --> 01:17:09,360 by a guy by the name of Lars Hanson 1394 01:17:16,890 --> 01:17:13,000 when Lear was at the height of his UFO 1395 01:17:20,480 --> 01:17:16,900 popularity and Lars Hanson was a JFK 1396 01:17:24,120 --> 01:17:20,490 researcher now I knew all these guys 1397 01:17:24,859 --> 01:17:24,130 okay I know them all and as a matter of 1398 01:17:28,160 --> 01:17:24,869 fact 1399 01:17:30,740 --> 01:17:28,170 at one time or another on my radio shows 1400 01:17:34,729 --> 01:17:30,750 or in the pages of UFO magazine I 1401 01:17:37,040 --> 01:17:34,739 interviewed them all and Hansen had been 1402 01:17:40,609 --> 01:17:37,050 working with a couple of other guys on a 1403 01:17:44,419 --> 01:17:40,619 theory that the JFK assassination had 1404 01:17:48,620 --> 01:17:44,429 actually been conducted and the fatal 1405 01:17:53,709 --> 01:17:48,630 head shot had been fired by the driver 1406 01:17:54,890 --> 01:17:53,719 of Kennedy's limousine in Dallas Texas 1407 01:17:57,950 --> 01:17:54,900 okay 1408 01:18:00,379 --> 01:17:57,960 now this video that they had put 1409 01:18:04,089 --> 01:18:00,389 together where they had a fourth or 1410 01:18:07,339 --> 01:18:04,099 fifth copy of the Sapru turf film and 1411 01:18:10,939 --> 01:18:07,349 Hanson and his two can pay tree it's had 1412 01:18:13,879 --> 01:18:10,949 taken it to a professional lab washed 1413 01:18:16,669 --> 01:18:13,889 all the Keller out of the Zapruder film 1414 01:18:20,180 --> 01:18:16,679 which originally was an 8 millimeter in 1415 01:18:22,970 --> 01:18:20,190 Keller 8 or 16-millimeter I forget now 1416 01:18:26,270 --> 01:18:22,980 but it was in Keller and they basically 1417 01:18:30,649 --> 01:18:26,280 turned it into a black and white film so 1418 01:18:34,459 --> 01:18:30,659 they could enhance okay the frames and 1419 01:18:37,129 --> 01:18:34,469 not be misled by the Keller and in one 1420 01:18:40,820 --> 01:18:37,139 of the frames for just a brief second it 1421 01:18:45,109 --> 01:18:40,830 looks like there is the driver is 1422 01:18:47,240 --> 01:18:45,119 holding a handgun now when Lear got this 1423 01:18:49,550 --> 01:18:47,250 when I first went down to meet him that 1424 01:18:51,410 --> 01:18:49,560 was one of the first things he did was 1425 01:18:54,439 --> 01:18:51,420 to show me that and I got to tell you at 1426 01:18:55,310 --> 01:18:54,449 first glance Wow I was kind of blown 1427 01:18:58,220 --> 01:18:55,320 away by it 1428 01:19:03,439 --> 01:18:58,230 and I started asking I went into my cop 1429 01:19:06,470 --> 01:19:03,449 routine and John got cagey okay he got 1430 01:19:09,410 --> 01:19:06,480 cagey I didn't know then although not 1431 01:19:13,850 --> 01:19:09,420 long after that I found out but where he 1432 01:19:17,740 --> 01:19:13,860 got the film but he duplicated that and 1433 01:19:21,669 --> 01:19:17,750 he sent it to bill Cooper and suddenly 1434 01:19:25,600 --> 01:19:21,679 bill Cooper claimed that he had seen 1435 01:19:29,959 --> 01:19:25,610 secret naval intelligence documents 1436 01:19:31,129 --> 01:19:29,969 talking about the hit on JFK and that 1437 01:19:34,760 --> 01:19:31,139 they knew all about it 1438 01:19:37,550 --> 01:19:34,770 and that the driver William Greer was 1439 01:19:39,550 --> 01:19:37,560 the perpetrator now this was simply 1440 01:19:44,030 --> 01:19:39,560 hogwash 1441 01:19:46,850 --> 01:19:44,040 in it 1442 01:19:49,880 --> 01:19:46,860 and incidentally I still will today 1443 01:19:52,490 --> 01:19:49,890 occasionally come across people that 1444 01:19:54,680 --> 01:19:52,500 want to attack me because I'm talking 1445 01:19:57,680 --> 01:19:54,690 about their hero bill Cooper in the JFK 1446 01:20:00,229 --> 01:19:57,690 tape or other things okay that this guy 1447 01:20:03,229 --> 01:20:00,239 was known for now was Bill 1448 01:20:04,520 --> 01:20:03,239 pardon me was built Cooper or we're 1449 01:20:06,620 --> 01:20:04,530 getting a little feedback here I'm not 1450 01:20:11,540 --> 01:20:06,630 sure what that is would you be able to 1451 01:20:13,880 --> 01:20:11,550 turn your turn your volume down on your 1452 01:20:17,209 --> 01:20:13,890 on your headset or whatever you have 1453 01:20:18,290 --> 01:20:17,219 here just a little bit how's that yep 1454 01:20:21,850 --> 01:20:18,300 doesn't sound like it's feeding back 1455 01:20:24,410 --> 01:20:21,860 thank you and sorry for that listeners 1456 01:20:26,510 --> 01:20:24,420 bill Cooper would see the one that 1457 01:20:31,010 --> 01:20:26,520 people talk about that they think he was 1458 01:20:35,270 --> 01:20:31,020 assassinated I'm thinking of yeah yeah 1459 01:20:37,700 --> 01:20:35,280 yeah well he was shot alright okay you 1460 01:20:40,479 --> 01:20:37,710 see here was the other thing about 1461 01:20:46,729 --> 01:20:40,489 Cooper and lo look he's been dead since 1462 01:20:50,060 --> 01:20:46,739 November of 2001 okay and you know I I 1463 01:20:53,900 --> 01:20:50,070 don't want to necessarily bash the guy's 1464 01:20:57,229 --> 01:20:53,910 been dead for almost 14 years but 1465 01:21:00,890 --> 01:20:57,239 unfortunately his disinformation lives 1466 01:21:04,970 --> 01:21:00,900 on now he lived out here in Southern 1467 01:21:07,010 --> 01:21:04,980 California and as you can imagine me 1468 01:21:11,030 --> 01:21:07,020 being a former cop I know a lot of cops 1469 01:21:14,209 --> 01:21:11,040 I had some good friends who were cops 1470 01:21:19,790 --> 01:21:14,219 down were close to where Cooper was then 1471 01:21:23,000 --> 01:21:19,800 living with his wife a a lady that he 1472 01:21:26,770 --> 01:21:23,010 had brought over from Asia okay they had 1473 01:21:28,850 --> 01:21:26,780 a little girl but and I mean hey look I 1474 01:21:31,670 --> 01:21:28,860 didn't come on here to do a whole show 1475 01:21:34,130 --> 01:21:31,680 about Cooper but I could all right but 1476 01:21:37,130 --> 01:21:34,140 here here was the crux of it there's a 1477 01:21:40,790 --> 01:21:37,140 lot more involved than we have time to 1478 01:21:45,500 --> 01:21:40,800 talk about now but he was drinking 1479 01:21:48,950 --> 01:21:45,510 heavily and unfortunately and every 1480 01:21:51,620 --> 01:21:48,960 night I'm talking about okay every night 1481 01:21:54,800 --> 01:21:51,630 and he would get intoxicated to the 1482 01:21:57,530 --> 01:21:54,810 point where he would get violent and 1483 01:22:00,410 --> 01:21:57,540 there had been a number of occasions 1484 01:22:05,030 --> 01:22:00,420 where the police ended up showing up at 1485 01:22:09,440 --> 01:22:05,040 his home and he eventually moved out of 1486 01:22:12,830 --> 01:22:09,450 here down to Arizona and some other 1487 01:22:16,370 --> 01:22:12,840 things happened down there then he was 1488 01:22:21,860 --> 01:22:16,380 wanted for questioning on some things 1489 01:22:26,170 --> 01:22:21,870 including tax evasion bank fraud if I 1490 01:22:32,510 --> 01:22:26,180 recall correctly some other things and 1491 01:22:35,170 --> 01:22:32,520 he publicly posted on his website he had 1492 01:22:39,260 --> 01:22:35,180 a website and he had a shortwave radio 1493 01:22:41,690 --> 01:22:39,270 program for a while called the hour of 1494 01:22:44,540 --> 01:22:41,700 the time where he would go on and he 1495 01:22:47,360 --> 01:22:44,550 would rant about these a lot of these 1496 01:22:50,120 --> 01:22:47,370 government conspiracies and its family 1497 01:22:52,250 --> 01:22:50,130 some of them as a matter of fact I got a 1498 01:22:54,680 --> 01:22:52,260 I got to tell you it probably ended up 1499 01:22:57,650 --> 01:22:54,690 being true but you know what they say 1500 01:23:02,480 --> 01:22:57,660 even a broken clock is Right twice a day 1501 01:23:04,720 --> 01:23:02,490 okay but at any rate his wife ended up 1502 01:23:08,830 --> 01:23:04,730 leaving the country with their daughter 1503 01:23:11,660 --> 01:23:08,840 then he was by himself and he said any 1504 01:23:16,360 --> 01:23:11,670 government agent or whatever that 1505 01:23:20,960 --> 01:23:16,370 attempted to apprehend him would be met 1506 01:23:22,400 --> 01:23:20,970 with armed resistance in other words you 1507 01:23:27,170 --> 01:23:22,410 come up on my property and I'm gonna 1508 01:23:31,250 --> 01:23:27,180 shoot you well it all cumulated when one 1509 01:23:35,930 --> 01:23:31,260 day a guy who instantly was a was a 1510 01:23:38,770 --> 01:23:35,940 physician a doctor an MD okay drove past 1511 01:23:42,670 --> 01:23:38,780 his house apparently I don't know why 1512 01:23:46,130 --> 01:23:42,680 was briefly driving on his property 1513 01:23:49,910 --> 01:23:46,140 Cooper came running out jumped in his 1514 01:23:51,530 --> 01:23:49,920 vehicle chased this man down pulled him 1515 01:23:55,190 --> 01:23:51,540 out of his car at gunpoint 1516 01:23:56,360 --> 01:23:55,200 I guess he terrified this poor guy half 1517 01:24:00,290 --> 01:23:56,370 out of his mind 1518 01:24:01,970 --> 01:24:00,300 and when the when Cooper left the guy 1519 01:24:02,660 --> 01:24:01,980 reported him to the police 1520 01:24:06,740 --> 01:24:02,670 they 1521 01:24:10,790 --> 01:24:06,750 decided to go ahead and effect an arrest 1522 01:24:14,150 --> 01:24:10,800 that night and what they did was they 1523 01:24:17,120 --> 01:24:14,160 had a couple of cops go out in civilian 1524 01:24:21,169 --> 01:24:17,130 clothes get in a pickup truck drive 1525 01:24:26,540 --> 01:24:21,179 across his property Cooper came running 1526 01:24:29,810 --> 01:24:26,550 out and in his vehicle okay 1527 01:24:33,709 --> 01:24:29,820 I guess he almost ran one of these guys 1528 01:24:37,930 --> 01:24:33,719 down went tearing back to his house 1529 01:24:42,410 --> 01:24:37,940 jumped out the police up by his door 1530 01:24:46,640 --> 01:24:42,420 attempted to effect an arrest Cooper 1531 01:24:49,490 --> 01:24:46,650 fired at them shot one police officer in 1532 01:24:54,189 --> 01:24:49,500 the head and they opened up and shot him 1533 01:24:59,180 --> 01:24:54,199 dead now if that equates as 1534 01:25:01,430 --> 01:24:59,190 assassination I guess you know I would 1535 01:25:04,160 --> 01:25:01,440 call it I personally would call it 1536 01:25:09,200 --> 01:25:04,170 resisting arrest and using lethal force 1537 01:25:12,070 --> 01:25:09,210 to resist arrest right right now I want 1538 01:25:15,860 --> 01:25:12,080 to shift gears here a little bit and a 1539 01:25:18,800 --> 01:25:15,870 lot of people that are trying to do good 1540 01:25:20,780 --> 01:25:18,810 honest research that I that I speak with 1541 01:25:23,590 --> 01:25:20,790 actually and have become friends with 1542 01:25:25,550 --> 01:25:23,600 and talked to on the phone a lot 1543 01:25:28,610 --> 01:25:25,560 probably one of them is actually 1544 01:25:31,130 --> 01:25:28,620 listening right now a lot of times they 1545 01:25:37,669 --> 01:25:31,140 get really discouraged in this field in 1546 01:25:39,410 --> 01:25:37,679 many ways it's kind of like oh they just 1547 01:25:44,360 --> 01:25:39,420 get discouraged because of all the let 1548 01:25:46,939 --> 01:25:44,370 downs and I when I was looking for 1549 01:25:48,979 --> 01:25:46,949 specific yeah yeah well I'm gonna 1550 01:25:51,709 --> 01:25:48,989 actually leave that to you because when 1551 01:25:54,260 --> 01:25:51,719 I was looking up information about you 1552 01:25:57,200 --> 01:25:54,270 on the internet before you came on I saw 1553 01:26:01,550 --> 01:25:57,210 where Kevin Randall wrote about you back 1554 01:26:05,390 --> 01:26:01,560 in 2007 and basically the title is Don 1555 01:26:08,930 --> 01:26:05,400 Ecker quits UFO research and I actually 1556 01:26:10,729 --> 01:26:08,940 read the story and I saw a lot of 1557 01:26:13,610 --> 01:26:10,739 parallels to your quotes in there 1558 01:26:16,220 --> 01:26:13,620 compared to what my friends are 1559 01:26:16,680 --> 01:26:16,230 basically saying these days and do you 1560 01:26:20,820 --> 01:26:16,690 want to talk 1561 01:26:26,970 --> 01:26:20,830 about that well yeah sure I mean you 1562 01:26:32,000 --> 01:26:26,980 know before the top of the last hour you 1563 01:26:34,340 --> 01:26:32,010 had a question about my and my wife's 1564 01:26:42,750 --> 01:26:34,350 association with Bill and Nancy burns 1565 01:26:45,750 --> 01:26:42,760 okay I became dissatisfied with what I 1566 01:26:49,650 --> 01:26:45,760 was seeing in UFO research now you know 1567 01:26:54,420 --> 01:26:49,660 back in in the earlier days okay in the 1568 01:26:59,010 --> 01:26:54,430 late 80s the early 90s this was a very 1569 01:27:03,540 --> 01:26:59,020 dynamic field with some very dynamic at 1570 01:27:07,920 --> 01:27:03,550 the time investigators there were people 1571 01:27:11,970 --> 01:27:07,930 like Bruce Maccabee okay a naval optical 1572 01:27:15,570 --> 01:27:11,980 physicist Stanton Friedman there were 1573 01:27:20,280 --> 01:27:15,580 people like Kevin Randle Don Schmidt 1574 01:27:23,040 --> 01:27:20,290 Bill Moore Jaime Chandra before you know 1575 01:27:27,240 --> 01:27:23,050 and John people like John Lear people 1576 01:27:31,229 --> 01:27:27,250 like later Lars Hanson did these people 1577 01:27:34,410 --> 01:27:31,239 that I mentioned and this was before a 1578 01:27:37,050 --> 01:27:34,420 lot of them ended up self-destructing 1579 01:27:40,740 --> 01:27:37,060 for whatever reason Linda Moulton Howe 1580 01:27:44,400 --> 01:27:40,750 okay was was another name that was very 1581 01:27:47,040 --> 01:27:44,410 prominent at the time and you know many 1582 01:27:48,900 --> 01:27:47,050 more I'm sure if i sat here and I really 1583 01:27:51,450 --> 01:27:48,910 thought about

01:28:02,980 didn't pass away until 1986 you know a 1587 01:28:12,200 --> 01:28:06,400 lot of people that were very prominent 1588 01:28:14,689 --> 01:28:12,210 and had been very active in research and 1589 01:28:20,060 --> 01:28:14,699 what do we have today 1590 01:28:24,030 --> 01:28:20,070 can you name you know any of those those 1591 01:28:27,209 --> 01:28:24,040 can you name names today

doing good legitimate 1595 01:28:42,850 --> 01:28:39,050 honest research calling a wart a wart if 1596 01:28:46,810 --> 01:28:42,860 that's what they find there are you know 1597 01:28:48,720 --> 01:28:46,820 I'd say there are a few David Marlar 1598 01:28:52,600 --> 01:28:48,730 comes to mind right up right off the top 1599 01:28:55,000 --> 01:28:52,610 I really have a lot of respect for him 1600 01:28:57,910 --> 01:28:55,010 you know Stanton Friedman still around I 1601 01:29:01,479 --> 01:28:57,920 know we were talking earlier about mj-12 1602 01:29:03,130 --> 01:29:01,489 and and he still stands behind I think 1603 01:29:05,770 --> 01:29:03,140 three documents on that and I know I 1604 01:29:08,050 --> 01:29:05,780 actually brought up the subject to him 1605 01:29:10,510 --> 01:29:08,060 last time I interviewed him and I said 1606 01:29:13,030 --> 01:29:10,520 well being in the fine arts field myself 1607 01:29:16,479 --> 01:29:13,040 when you go into a house and there's a 1608 01:29:18,100 --> 01:29:16,489 fake painting or - fake paintings you 1609 01:29:20,320 --> 01:29:18,110 kind of got a look at every single 1610 01:29:21,850 --> 01:29:20,330 painting because most likely they're all 1611 01:29:24,160 --> 01:29:21,860 fakes you know that's generally how it 1612 01:29:26,320 --> 01:29:24,170 works and he kind of turned that around 1613 01:29:28,390 --> 01:29:26,330 and just said you know no there was 1614 01:29:30,459 --> 01:29:28,400 actually you know three documents that 1615 01:29:33,190 --> 01:29:30,469 actually were you know authentic and you 1616 01:29:36,130 --> 01:29:33,200 know I don't know enough about that to 1617 01:29:38,709 --> 01:29:36,140 talk intelligently about it but I do 1618 01:29:40,090 --> 01:29:38,719 believe that there are still a number of 1619 01:29:41,410 --> 01:29:40,100 them around and there are some of the 1620 01:29:43,930 --> 01:29:41,420 names that you mentioned that I have 1621 01:29:47,800 --> 01:29:43,940 seen gone off the deep end and and I do 1622 01:29:51,220 --> 01:29:47,810 I do pick on Steven Greer quite a bit on 1623 01:29:53,890 --> 01:29:51,230 the show and some he be aware I

were interfacing with all the 1646 01:31:16,420 --> 01:31:12,530 time and continuously now to get to the 1647 01:31:21,580 --> 01:31:16,430 point that I that I wanted to make we 1648 01:31:24,790 --> 01:31:21,590 were contacted by Steven Greer okay he 1649 01:31:29,350 --> 01:31:24,800 wanted to meet us and this was god this 1650 01:31:31,330 --> 01:31:29,360 had to be 90 or 91 so we said sure 1651 01:31:35,530 --> 01:31:31,340 because I mean we were willing to meet 1652 01:31:37,660 --> 01:31:35,540 anybody and we met him downtown in Los 1653 01:31:40,660 --> 01:31:37,670 Angeles at a restaurant we were going to 1654 01:31:42,670 --> 01:31:40,670 have lunch and we sat down we shook 1655 01:31:46,060 --> 01:31:42,680 hands and you know got to know each 1656 01:31:49,480 --> 01:31:46,070 other a little bit and Greer started 1657 01:31:54,640 --> 01:31:49,490 pumping us about what was our take on 1658 01:31:58,510 --> 01:31:54,650 the UFO thing and basically you know I 1659 01:32:01,120 --> 01:31:58,520 told him I said hey I don't know okay 1660 01:32:05,200 --> 01:32:01,130 and if you were to ask me right now 1661 01:32:08,620 --> 01:32:05,210 Martin in 2015 my

01:32:16,000 but anyway 1665 01:32:27,220 --> 01:32:21,620 Greer started pitching this idea of love 1666 01:32:29,950 --> 01:32:27,230 light sunshine and unicorns okay and I 1667 01:32:33,070 --> 01:32:29,960 listened to him and Vicki listen to him 1668 01:32:36,880 --> 01:32:33,080 for a little bit and then I hit him with 1669 01:32:40,300 --> 01:32:36,890 a half-dozen cases where there was

both inside as well as outside of 1784 01:39:24,510 --> 01:39:21,880 government 1785 01:39:26,430 --> 01:39:24,520 we've interfaced and I'm talking about 1786 01:39:29,490 --> 01:39:26,440 when I was with the magazine we've 1787 01:39:30,450 --> 01:39:29,500 interfaced with people in the Department 1788 01:39:33,990 --> 01:39:30,460 of Defense 1789 01:39:36,689 --> 01:39:34,000 we've interfaced with people in 1790 01:39:40,620 --> 01:39:36,699 I've interfaced with people that were 1791 01:39:46,290 --> 01:39:40,630 formerly intelligence operatives 1792 01:39:49,080 --> 01:39:46,300 officers CIA NSA and others some of them 1793 01:39:53,850 --> 01:39:49,090 were actually off the record quite 1794 01:39:56,720 --> 01:39:53,860 forthcoming but the bottom line is I am 1795 01:40:00,300 --> 01:39:56,730 convinced and I said this last night 1796 01:40:04,740 --> 01:40:00,310 that they will go to their grave and 1797 01:40:08,729 --> 01:40:04,750 never disclose a thing there's only one 1798 01:40:12,300 --> 01:40:08,739 thing that might force their hand and 1799 01:40:15,419 --> 01:40:12,310 that's if ET shows up over all the major 1800 01:40:19,200 --> 01:40:15,429 cities on the planet and you know a la 1801 01:40:21,600 --> 01:40:19,210 ID for Independence Day Allah you know 1802 01:40:23,340 --> 01:40:21,610 the end of the of the secrecy built up 1803 01:40:29,580 --> 01:40:23,350 now this is something else I said last 1804 01:40:33,540 --> 01:40:29,590 night that look if the aliens if that's 1805 01:40:37,169 --> 01:40:33,550 in fact what they are ET if that's what 1806 01:40:40,140 --> 01:40:37,179 they are if they wanted to end the 1807 01:40:44,120 --> 01:40:40,150 cover-up they could have done that last 1808 01:40:48,030 --> 01:40:44,130 year or the year before or 50 years ago 1809 01:40:49,620 --> 01:40:48,040 it's obvious that they have no intention 1810 01:40:53,520 --> 01:40:49,630 of doing that 1811 01:40:57,169 --> 01:40:53,530 which tells me after years of looking at 1812 01:41:00,450 --> 01:40:57,179 this that they have an active agenda 1813 01:41:03,180 --> 01:41:00,460 that is much easier to carry out if they 1814 01:41:08,220 --> 01:41:03,190 don't have interference from you know 1815 01:41:11,669 --> 01:41:08,230 reporters from Fox CNN MSNBC ABC you 1816 01:41:15,300 --> 01:41:11,679 know CBS they're going about their 1817 01:41:17,189 --> 01:41:15,310 business very quietly and it's people 1818 01:41:20,640 --> 01:41:17,199 like you and I that are talking about it 1819 01:41:22,910 --> 01:41:20,650 and the fact that we're talking about it 1820 01:41:25,890 --> 01:41:22,920 where do you think the mainstream 1821 01:41:31,470 --> 01:41:25,900 relegate sus Martin yeah we're on the 1822 01:41:36,540 --> 01:41:31,480 fringe regardless of how much thoughtful 1823 01:41:38,939 --> 01:41:36,550 discourse research okay you know this is 1824 01:41:42,750 --> 01:41:38,949 one thing that and I used to do a hell 1825 01:41:46,410 --> 01:41:42,760 of a lot of TV back in the 90s when at 1826 01:41:47,140 --> 01:41:46,420 the height of this I was on TV on it on 1827 01:41:50,200 --> 01:41:47,150 various 1828 01:41:54,280 --> 01:41:50,210 programs several times a week okay and 1829 01:41:57,310 --> 01:41:54,290 it used to irritate me to the maximum 1830 01:42:00,640 --> 01:41:57,320 when I would be referred to as a UFO 1831 01:42:03,520 --> 01:42:00,650 believer and I would get right in their 1832 01:42:06,910 --> 01:42:03,530 face about that believer my butt 1833 01:42:09,160 --> 01:42:06,920 okay I am a researcher do you want to 1834 01:42:11,439 --> 01:42:09,170 see my research and of course the 1835 01:42:14,410 --> 01:42:11,449 majority of these people wouldn't know 1836 01:42:17,380 --> 01:42:14,420 UFOs from a pimple on their tuckus 1837 01:42:20,229 --> 01:42:17,390 that's just the way it is okay this is 1838 01:42:23,020 --> 01:42:20,239 not something that the majority of them 1839 01:42:25,419 --> 01:42:23,030 have any interest in and they don't want 1840 01:42:28,419 --> 01:42:25,429 to take the time to research it that's 1841 01:42:33,130 --> 01:42:28,429 what a journalist does if they don't 1842 01:42:35,860 --> 01:42:33,140 know about a topic or a subject they 1843 01:42:37,870 --> 01:42:35,870 research it but most of these guys and 1844 01:42:41,350 --> 01:42:37,880 gals that are you know doing these 1845 01:42:43,560 --> 01:42:41,360 smirking stories on the local news or 1846 01:42:46,680 --> 01:42:43,570 even the national news upon occasion 1847 01:42:53,860 --> 01:42:46,690 couldn't tell you the difference between 1848 01:42:57,160 --> 01:42:53,870 Roswell and Montauk okay yep one 1849 01:42:59,080 --> 01:42:57,170 question that came up a few minutes ago 1850 01:43:02,500 --> 01:42:59,090 was someone wanted to know on the 1851 01:43:06,490 --> 01:43:02,510 message board what your your favorite 1852 01:43:09,790 --> 01:43:06,500 case or let's say your case you think is 1853 01:43:13,390 --> 01:43:09,800 one of the most legitimate ones two of 1854 01:43:16,570 --> 01:43:13,400 them all right and I broke them okay 1855 01:43:20,560 --> 01:43:16,580 okay I broke them and I broke them on 1856 01:43:24,810 --> 01:43:20,570 national television and these are the 1857 01:43:29,350 --> 01:43:24,820 cases that I have always been most 1858 01:43:34,530 --> 01:43:29,360 interested in because of the as a rule 1859 01:43:41,140 --> 01:43:34,540 the witnesses have involved the military 1860 01:43:45,580 --> 01:43:41,150 okay military personnel and NASA in the 1861 01:43:56,500 --> 01:43:45,590 two cases I broke one as a direct result 1862 01:43:59,290 --> 01:43:56,510 of a NASA live broadcast was sts-48 that 1863 01:44:00,970 --> 01:43:59,300 was a shuttle mission that took place in 1864 01:44:07,840 --> 01:44:00,980 September of 1990 1865 01:44:12,880 --> 01:44:07,850 one and while it was of Australia and 1866 01:44:18,250 --> 01:44:12,890 New Zealand they were sending a live 1867 01:44:21,420 --> 01:44:18,260 stream of a thunderstorm okay back to 1868 01:44:23,979 --> 01:44:21,430 NASA headquarters and a friend of mine 1869 01:44:29,830 --> 01:44:23,989 excuse me a buddy of mine by the name of 1870 01:44:33,850 --> 01:44:29,840 Don Ranch a UFO researcher back in 1871 01:44:36,970 --> 01:44:33,860 Dundalk Maryland had a contact at one of 1872 01:44:42,270 --> 01:44:36,980 the local small cable TV stations and 1873 01:44:45,090 --> 01:44:42,280 they would capture the entire live feed 1874 01:44:47,800 --> 01:44:45,100 that NASA would beam back to the earth 1875 01:44:52,690 --> 01:44:47,810 now we're talking about a live feed 1876 01:44:56,310 --> 01:44:52,700 Martin okay in real time and suddenly 1877 01:45:00,760 --> 01:44:56,320 above the limb of the earth 1878 01:45:03,190 --> 01:45:00,770 this object arose now when you're 1879 01:45:07,960 --> 01:45:03,200 looking at this video there's a lot of 1880 01:45:11,350 --> 01:45:07,970 stuff happening around this shuttle but 1881 01:45:14,860 --> 01:45:11,360 this object rises above the limb of the 1882 01:45:20,470 --> 01:45:14,870 earth and the shuttle is flying along 1883 01:45:24,340 --> 01:45:20,480 and suddenly the whole picture of this 1884 01:45:27,490 --> 01:45:24,350 feed is very momentarily very briefly 1885 01:45:32,520 --> 01:45:27,500 blanked out by a brilliant flash of 1886 01:45:36,790 --> 01:45:32,530 light and suddenly something is 1887 01:45:41,620 --> 01:45:36,800 streaking directly at this unknown blip 1888 01:45:47,040 --> 01:45:41,630 this UFO this unidentified flying object 1889 01:45:52,270 --> 01:45:47,050 and this object makes a dramatic and 1890 01:45:56,820 --> 01:45:52,280 sudden 100 45-degree angle right turn 1891 01:46:02,140 --> 01:45:56,830 and flashes out into space at least 1892 01:46:06,040 --> 01:46:02,150 quadrupling its speed this dream of 1893 01:46:09,700 --> 01:46:06,050 matter that was apparently fired and 1894 01:46:12,820 --> 01:46:09,710 that's the only thing that I can I can 1895 01:46:13,480 --> 01:46:12,830 speculate because back in those days we 1896 01:46:19,480 --> 01:46:13,490 had 1897 01:46:23,560 --> 01:46:19,490 an entire issue of the magazine on Star 1898 01:46:25,510 --> 01:46:23,570 Wars the Star Wars technology that was 1899 01:46:29,770 --> 01:46:25,520 being developed by the Department of the 1900 01:46:31,900 --> 01:46:29,780 defense and the Pentagon remember Ronald 1901 01:46:37,120 --> 01:46:31,910 Reagan's Star Wars shoot down we have a 1902 01:46:39,460 --> 01:46:37,130 mess okay and I think this was a fine 1903 01:46:42,850 --> 01:46:39,470 now this is once again I can't prove 1904 01:46:46,110 --> 01:46:42,860 this but I think it was a firing of a 1905 01:46:51,580 --> 01:46:46,120 technology known as brilliant pebbles 1906 01:46:54,340 --> 01:46:51,590 like a massive huge shotgun blast that 1907 01:46:58,240 --> 01:46:54,350 would be used to take out ICBMs if they 1908 01:47:03,070 --> 01:46:58,250 were ever god forbid launched but then 1909 01:47:05,560 --> 01:47:03,080 this unknown circles back around okay 1910 01:47:09,940 --> 01:47:05,570 and some other things happen but at any 1911 01:47:15,310 --> 01:47:09,950 rate I knew some producers here in town 1912 01:47:18,370 --> 01:47:15,320 and I called the first guy up I knew who 1913 01:47:20,530 --> 01:47:18,380 was it hard copy he came out to the 1914 01:47:24,430 --> 01:47:20,540 office I showed him this video we got 1915 01:47:27,070 --> 01:47:24,440 all excited wanted to do a a show on it 1916 01:47:29,380 --> 01:47:27,080 right away and then I called up another 1917 01:47:32,530 --> 01:47:29,390 producer I knew it Larry King Live back 1918 01:47:35,250 --> 01:47:32,540 in DC now I've been a guest on Larry 1919 01:47:38,500 --> 01:47:35,260 King Live at that point several times 1920 01:47:42,730 --> 01:47:38,510 probably about four or five times but I 1921 01:47:48,610 --> 01:47:42,740 told him about this he had me run down 1922 01:47:51,550 --> 01:47:48,620 to CNN in LA they beamed this back to 1923 01:47:55,440 --> 01:47:51,560 him and they brought me on Larry King 1924 01:47:58,750 --> 01:47:55,450 Live to talk about it now they wanted a 1925 01:48:01,750 --> 01:47:58,760 skeptic that was one thing that used to 1926 01:48:04,240 --> 01:48:01,760 you know em who antagonize me but hey 1927 01:48:08,250 --> 01:48:04,250 what are you gonna do so I recommended 1928 01:48:10,960 --> 01:48:08,260 fill class I'm class at the time and 1929 01:48:15,220 --> 01:48:10,970 gave them classes phone number he 1930 01:48:17,080 --> 01:48:15,230 refused so they got back to me and said 1931 01:48:19,210 --> 01:48:17,090 well he didn't want to do the show you 1932 01:48:24,080 --> 01:48:19,220 know do you know anybody else so I 1933 01:48:26,780 --> 01:48:24,090 recommended dr. Jim over and after 1934 01:48:29,780 --> 01:48:26,790 that show it's kind of the subject of 1935 01:48:32,810 --> 01:48:29,790 legend okay are you did you have you 1936 01:48:35,350 --> 01:48:32,820

--> 01:48:43,010 short one of our contacts back in 1940 01:48:49,760 --> 01:48:46,560 Washington a week after this broadcast 1941 01:48:52,430 --> 01:48:49,770 called us up now he had written several 1942 01:48:56,620 --> 01:48:52,440 articles for UFO magazine he was a 1943 01:48:59,450 --> 01:48:56,630 defense reporter okay a national defense 1944 01:49:02,360 --> 01:48:59,460 reporter but he had written articles for 1945 01:49:03,950 --> 01:49:02,370 the magazine under a pseudonym he didn't 1946 01:49:07,640 --> 01:49:03,960 want to be painted with that fringe 1947 01:49:12,140 --> 01:49:07,650 brush we were just talking about but he 1948 01:49:15,920 --> 01:49:12,150 called up and he said Don he said do you 1949 01:49:18,080 --> 01:49:15,930 know what you did and honestly I didn't 1950 01:49:19,430 --> 01:49:18,090 know what he was talking about and I 1951 01:49:25,610 --> 01:49:19,440 said no what do you what are you talking 1952 01:49:28,610 --> 01:49:25,620 about he said you really saw a bunch of 1953 01:49:29,960 --> 01:49:28,620 people at the Pentagon and I said why 1954 01:49:31,910 --> 01:49:29,970 what are you talking about 1955 01:49:35,720 --> 01:49:31,920 he said you being on Larry King last 1956 01:49:39,650 --> 01:49:35,730 week with that with that sts-48 video he 1957 01:49:42,890 --> 01:49:39,660 said do you know what they did and I 1958 01:49:48,050 --> 01:49:42,900 said no he said they've encrypted that 1959 01:49:52,250 --> 01:49:48,060 live feed and ever since that broadcast 1960 01:49:55,930 --> 01:49:52,260 in June of 92 you have never seen 1961 01:50:00,370 --> 01:49:55,940 another live feed from outer space that 1962 01:50:03,890 --> 01:50:00,380 wasn't either vetted or in time delay 1963 01:50:05,600 --> 01:50:03,900 because of what that video showed now 1964 01:50:08,210 --> 01:50:05,610 that's a little-known fact that a lot of 1965 01:50:10,880 --> 01:50:08,220 people are not aware of but I'm the 1966 01:50:13,370 --> 01:50:10,890 reason Martin that you'll never see a 1967 01:50:15,290 --> 01:50:13,380 live feed from outer space well how 1968 01:50:17,390 --> 01:50:15,300 about that and you know we only have 1969 01:50:20,030 --> 01:50:17,400 about five minutes left so why don't you 1970 01:50:24,770 --> 01:50:20,040 talk about this the second one the 1971 01:50:28,490 --> 01:50:24,780 second one was a space mission that took 1972 01:50:31,760 --> 01:50:28,500 place jointly although at the time it 1973 01:50:37,280 --> 01:50:31,770 was not known it was a joint mission 1974 01:50:40,160 --> 01:50:37,290 between NASA and black cosmos the 1975 01:50:44,870 --> 01:50:40,170 Soviet because it was still then the 1976 01:50:48,860 --> 01:50:44,880 Soviet Union the Soviet space agency it 1977 01:50:52,490 --> 01:50:48,870 was two probes being sent to Mars Phobos 1978 01:50:54,320 --> 01:50:52,500 1 and Phobos 2 which were launched in 1979 01:50:58,910 --> 01:50:54,330 July of 1988 1980 01:51:02,890 --> 01:50:58,920 now this mission was supposed to be a 1981 01:51:09,890 --> 01:51:02,900 Pathfinder mission because at that time 1982 01:51:14,090 --> 01:51:09,900 all right at that time 1987-88 the 1983 01:51:18,070 --> 01:51:14,100 Russians and and NASA were discussing 1984 01:51:21,890 --> 01:51:18,080 the possibility of a joint manned 1985 01:51:24,050 --> 01:51:21,900 mission to Mars and guess what the date 1986 01:51:29,900 --> 01:51:24,060 was that it they were theorizing it 1987 01:51:33,020 --> 01:51:29,910 might take place no idea 2014-2015 okay 1988 01:51:36,620 --> 01:51:33,030 now they sent these probes up now the 1989 01:51:41,950 --> 01:51:36,630 first probe they lost okay if you ever 1990 01:51:43,550 --> 01:51:41,960 look at all the attempts to reach Mars 1991 01:51:47,300 --> 01:51:43,560 okay bye 1992 01:51:51,560 --> 01:51:47,310 of course unmanned space probes only 1993 01:51:54,740 --> 01:51:51,570 about 30% okay ever got through all the 1994 01:51:57,260 --> 01:51:54,750 rest something happened to them there 1995 01:52:00,380 --> 01:51:57,270 used to be a joke called the great 1996 01:52:03,200 --> 01:52:00,390 galactic ghoul was gobbling these probes 1997 01:52:06,920 --> 01:52:03,210 up alright that was the joke now that's 1998 01:52:09,230 --> 01:52:06,930 that's actually that's actually true the 1999 01:52:11,630 --> 01:52:09,240 Russians blamed the loss of the probe on 2000 01:52:14,270 --> 01:52:11,640 a combination of computer and human 2001 01:52:17,360 --> 01:52:14,280 error now on both these probes not only 2002 01:52:21,520 --> 01:52:17,370 Russian technology was on it but also 2003 01:52:24,740 --> 01:52:21,530 NASA technology and all the telemetry 2004 01:52:27,440 --> 01:52:24,750 was being fed back through Goldstone 2005 01:52:31,070 --> 01:52:27,450 okay here in the United States and then 2006 01:52:34,700 --> 01:52:31,080 to the Soviet Union or Russia the second 2007 01:52:38,810 --> 01:52:34,710 probe however got there in January of 89 2008 01:52:43,160 --> 01:52:38,820 okay then the fun began they began 2009 01:52:46,600 --> 01:52:43,170 photographing Mars and they were 2010 01:52:51,109 --> 01:52:46,610 photographing the Martian moon Phobos 2011 01:52:53,839 --> 01:52:51,119 now why were they photographing Phobos 2012 01:52:56,629 --> 01:52:53,849 the thought was then they wanted to have 2013 01:52:59,149 --> 01:52:56,639 number one find out what is Phobos made 2014 01:53:02,950 --> 01:52:59,159 out of them okay because nobody really 2015 01:53:05,959 --> 01:53:02,960 knew hang on a second 2016 01:53:09,080 --> 01:53:05,969 my computer was beeping at me I thought 2017 01:53:11,930 --> 01:53:09,090 somebody was trying to call me oh no I 2018 01:53:13,550 --> 01:53:11,940 know what it is and that's uh we always 2019 01:53:16,189 --> 01:53:13,560 have to I always have to communicate 2020 01:53:18,020 --> 01:53:16,199 with Keith in the wrap up here and 2021 01:53:20,030 --> 01:53:18,030 that's up and when I'm texting in your 2022 01:53:21,530 --> 01:53:20,040 texting is my texting is beeping on your 2023 01:53:23,839 --> 01:53:21,540 skype sorry about that 2024 01:53:27,770 --> 01:53:23,849 okay are we gonna have yeah we have we 2025 01:53:29,899 --> 01:53:27,780 have two minutes left okay so they 2026 01:53:32,300 --> 01:53:29,909 wanted to find out what Phobos the 2027 01:53:34,820 --> 01:53:32,310 moonlit was made out of because that was 2028 01:53:38,149 --> 01:53:34,830 looked to be where the astronauts and 2029 01:53:41,359 --> 01:53:38,159 cosmonauts would touch down and then use 2030 01:53:45,050 --> 01:53:41,369 the Phobos moon as a stepping stone down 2031 01:53:46,640 --> 01:53:45,060 to the planet Mars surface but while all 2032 01:53:50,300 --> 01:53:46,650 this was going on 2033 01:53:53,990 --> 01:53:50,310 they had photographed a number of hot 2034 01:53:56,359 --> 01:53:54,000 spots this was a terminology used on 2035 01:53:59,260 --> 01:53:56,369 Mars hot spots 2036 01:54:04,100 --> 01:53:59,270 now Mars is considered be pretty much 2037 01:54:06,229 --> 01:54:04,110 geologically dead but something down 2038 01:54:10,030 --> 01:54:06,239 there was generating heat then they 2039 01:54:13,040 --> 01:54:10,040 photographed a huge ellipsoid shadow 2040 01:54:15,950 --> 01:54:13,050 that was reflecting back off of the 2041 01:54:17,870 --> 01:54:15,960 Martian atmosphere now Mars does have an 2042 01:54:22,160 --> 01:54:17,880 atmosphere not one that we can breathe 2043 01:54:26,540 --> 01:54:22,170 but nonetheless it's there then they 2044 01:54:31,510 --> 01:54:26,550 photograph something off of the limb of 2045 01:54:35,540 --> 01:54:31,520 foe of Phobos that the Russians said 2046 01:54:42,290 --> 01:54:35,550 unbelievably was 15 and a half miles 2047 01:54:44,510 --> 01:54:42,300 long and a mile in diameter I read about 2048 01:54:46,490 --> 01:54:44,520 this before I know the case I know what 2049 01:54:50,270 --> 01:54:46,500 you're talking about when this object 2050 01:54:54,109 --> 01:54:50,280 turned toward their craft and rammed it 2051 01:54:58,030 --> 01:54:54,119 and destroyed the Phobos two craft right 2052 01:55:02,750 --> 01:54:58,040 now that was I got that directly from 2053 01:55:04,859 --> 01:55:02,760 Colonel marina Popovich who was their 2054 01:55:07,830 --> 01:55:04,869 female version of General 2055 01:55:11,250 --> 01:55:07,840 Chuck Yeager she had more aviation 2056 01:55:13,679 --> 01:55:11,260 records than anybody else in well she's 2057 01:55:16,799 --> 01:55:13,689 one of the top aviators in the world she 2058 01:55:19,889 --> 01:55:16,809 was also a trained cosmonaut and her 2059 01:55:24,299 --> 01:55:19,899 husband ex-husband was general Pavel 2060 01:55:27,659 --> 01:55:24,309 Popovich who until he ran off with his 2061 01:55:29,790 --> 01:55:27,669 secretary and left his wife okay had 2062 01:55:33,049 --> 01:55:29,800 been the first human being to rendezvous 2063 01:55:37,909 --> 01:55:33,059 with another spacecraft in orbit back in 2064 01:55:42,389 --> 01:55:37,919 1962 so this
