00:02:21,599 up there now just uh from this week the 56 00:02:26,630 --> 00:02:22,959 asparagus 57 00:02:30,790 --> 00:02:28,949 i kind of had heard of that story and i 58 00:02:32,309 --> 00:02:30,800 said let me check that out i love weird 59 00:02:36,070 --> 00:02:32,319 creature stories 60 00:02:38,229 --> 00:02:36,080 uh and yeah it turned out to be bogus 61 00:02:40,790 --> 00:02:38,239 but there's a story behind that uh 62 00:02:44,070 --> 00:02:40,800 basically where it came from was a um 63 00:02:45,190 --> 00:02:44,080 a male pope magazine and so that's a 64 00:02:47,670 --> 00:02:45,200 whole nother subject 65 00:02:48,309 --> 00:02:47,680 i really didn't know all that much about 66 00:02:52,070 --> 00:02:48,319 uh 67 00:02:54,790 --> 00:02:52,080 so actually quite a few ufo stories have 68 00:02:57,110 --> 00:02:54,800 come from those pulp magazines and uh 69 00:02:58,070 --> 00:02:57,120 they still live on today uh that the 70 00:02:59,990 --> 00:02:58,080 asparagus 71 00:03:01,270 --> 00:03:00,000 uh people are known as the georgia 72 00:03:03,830 --> 00:03:01,280 stalks 73 00:03:05,670 --> 00:03:03,840 uh so they're not super wide spread but 74 00:03:07,350 --> 00:03:05,680 you can kind of find them in the little 75 00:03:10,550 --> 00:03:07,360 corners of the web on lists 76 00:03:12,869 --> 00:03:10,560 and uh of strange creatures

possibly make that 83 00:03:29,190 --> 00:03:25,920 up but obviously 84 00:03:31,670 --> 00:03:29,200 they made this stuff up and uh yeah 85 00:03:33,670 --> 00:03:31,680 yeah but you know when you get stories 86 00:03:35,030 --> 00:03:33,680 like the uh kelly goblins and the 87 00:03:38,710 --> 00:03:35,040 flatwoods monster 88 00:03:39,190 --> 00:03:38,720 and uh real but super bizarre story

this there 124 00:05:12,070 --> 00:05:09,360 are reports to the department of defense 125 00:05:13,909 --> 00:05:12,080 from the cabin yari which is the uh the 126 00:05:16,070 --> 00:05:13,919 italian state police 127 00:05:16,950 --> 00:05:16,080 and it's a crazy story it was written up 128 00:05:20,629 --> 00:05:16,960 in a book by 129 00:05:22,629 --> 00:05:20,639 uh reno di stefano um

it the 248 00:10:02,230 --> 00:10:01,120 thing went international and he had 249 00:10:05,590 --> 00:10:02,240 hundreds of 250 00:10:06,630 --> 00:10:05,600 members all over the globe so this thing 251 00:10:10,310 --> 00:10:06,640 got really big 252 00:10:17,910 --> 00:10:14,790 so parker 253 00:10:20,710 --> 00:10:17,920 a weird thing happened in his town um 254 00:10:23,910 --> 00:10:20,720 some guy had an epileptic seizure 255 00:10:26,710 --> 00:10:23,920 somebody lifted his wallet and the guy 256 00:10:28,630 --> 00:10:26,720 had no idea on him but he did have 257 00:10:31,350 --> 00:10:28,640 grey barker's international flying 258 00:10:34,310 --> 00:10:31,360 saucer bureau business card on him 259 00:10:34,710 --> 00:10:34,320 so an official goes to barker's house to 260 00:10:38,550 --> 00:10:34,720 uh 261 00:10:42,069 --> 00:10:38,560 talk to him barker got paranoid 262 00:10:45,350 --> 00:10:42,079 and he started calling uh his fellow uh 263 00:10:47,110 --> 00:10:45,360 flying saucer bureau members uh telling 264 00:10:50,470 --> 00:10:47,120 them uh 265 00:10:54,069 --> 00:10:50,480 um you uh 266 00:10:56,949 --> 00:10:54,079 expect to be uh investigated by the fbi 267 00:10:57,269 --> 00:10:56,959 uh this guy whether this guy ever showed 268 00:10:59,110 --> 00:10:57,279 it 269 00:11:01,590 --> 00:10:59,120 barker claimed the guy showed him fbi 270 00:11:05,269 --> 00:11:01,600 credentials but whether he did or not is 271 00:11:08,389 --> 00:11:05,279 up to anybody's guess um 272 00:11:10,310 --> 00:11:08,399 so he tried to call bender bender was 273 00:11:13,990 --> 00:11:10,320 out on vacation 274 00:11:16,389 --> 00:11:14,000 um so he called another 275 00:11:18,470 --> 00:11:16,399 member uh the reverend s l dahl based in 276 00:11:21,590 --> 00:11:18,480 washington dc 277 00:11:22,870 --> 00:11:21,600 uh and told him you know expect to be 278 00:11:25,670 --> 00:11:22,880 investigated 279 00:11:27,590 --> 00:11:25,680 well it turns out that dahl was seeing 280 00:11:28,310 --> 00:11:27,600 flying saucers everywhere and taking 281 00:11:32,150 --> 00:11:28,320 pictures 282 00:11:36,550 --> 00:11:32,160 was taking 283 00:11:39,590 --> 00:11:36,560 were at a restricted installation 284 00:11:41,350 --> 00:11:39,600 so three fbi agents actually did come 285 00:11:43,590 --> 00:11:41,360 and interview him 286 00:11:45,910 --> 00:11:43,600 so he wrote a letter to bender as well 287 00:11:47,190 --> 00:11:45,920 so bender came home and saw these two 288 00:11:50,389 --> 00:11:47,200 letters 289 00:11:53,670 --> 00:11:50,399 uh so there was a conjecture 290 00:11:55,910 --> 00:11:53,680 this was actually uh the guy who 291 00:11:56,710 --> 00:11:55,920 came up with this idea was david houchin 292 00:11:59,750 --> 00:11:56,720 who is the 293 00:12:00,949 --> 00:11:59,760 curator of the gray barker collection at 294 00:12:03,990 --> 00:12:00,959 the 295 00:12:06,470 --> 00:12:04,000 clarksburg harrison public library 296 00:12:07,670 --> 00:12:06,480 his theory is that bender came home saw 297 00:12:11,750 --> 00:12:07,680 these two letters 298 00:12:15,269 --> 00:12:11,760 and panicked and took the 299 00:12:18,389 --> 00:12:15,279 three men visiting 300 00:12:21,269 --> 00:12:18,399 scenario from daw and he turned them 301 00:12:24,550 --> 00:12:21,279 into men in black 302 00:12:26,629 --> 00:12:24,560 he told his members that he'd found the 303 00:12:28,389 --> 00:12:26,639 answer to flying saucers 304 00:12:30,069 --> 00:12:28,399 but he wasn't he was sworn to secrecy 305 00:12:32,470 --> 00:12:30,079 not to tell anybody about it as an 306 00:12:35,910 --> 00:12:32,480 american citizen 307 00:12:39,030 --> 00:12:35,920 so the and he shut down the 308 00:12:41,030 --> 00:12:39,040 bureau shortly thereafter 309 00:12:42,069 --> 00:12:41,040 so that's where the mythos of the men in 310 00:12:44,389 --> 00:12:42,079 black 311 00:12:46,310 --> 00:12:44,399 got its start that's where it started 312 00:12:48,949 --> 00:12:46,320 right there 313 00:12:49,590 --> 00:12:48,959 yeah yeah a lot of people will say that 314 00:12:52,949 --> 00:12:49,600 it 315 00:12:56,150 --> 00:12:52,959 you can kind of right 316 00:12:58,230 --> 00:12:56,160 yeah but 317 00:12:59,269 --> 00:12:58,240 the you know the classic three men in 318 00:13:02,550 --> 00:12:59,279 black 319 00:13:04,310 --> 00:13:02,560 uh really came from bender's experience 320 00:13:06,470 --> 00:13:04,320 and barker really played it up in his 321 00:13:09,269 --> 00:13:06,480 book they knew too much about flying 322 00:13:14,870 --> 00:13:12,629 so yeah yeah 323 00:13:16,150 --> 00:13:14,880 yeah that's that's the story of bender 324 00:13:18,310 --> 00:13:16,160 uh so 325 00:13:19,430 --> 00:13:18,320 uh the other members uh kind of 326 00:13:21,750 --> 00:13:19,440 scattered 327 00:13:24,310 --> 00:13:21,760 uh barker went off on his own he was 328 00:13:27,350 --> 00:13:24,320 publishing the saucerium 329 00:13:28,629 --> 00:13:27,360 which is a real whimsical wonderful uh 330 00:13:30,710 --> 00:13:28,639 publication 331 00:13:32,870 --> 00:13:30,720 uh full of fact and fiction i mean he 332 00:13:36,150 --> 00:13:32,880 has uh ufo reports there from 333 00:13:39,990 --> 00:13:36,160 some of the pulp magazines as well as 334 00:13:43,670 --> 00:13:40,000 you know uh credible reports 335 00:13:45,189 --> 00:13:43,680 um he was definitely a 14 for teams or 336 00:13:47,509 --> 00:13:45,199 people who 337 00:13:49,750 --> 00:13:47,519 collect unusual stories named after 338 00:13:50,790 --> 00:13:49,760 charles fort who was a guy who did that 339 00:13:54,069 --> 00:13:50,800 in the 340 00:13:57,430 --> 00:13:54,079 early uh 20th century um 341 00:14:00,069 --> 00:13:57,440 so barker was definitely a 14 342 00:14:01,110 --> 00:14:00,079 and his magazine reflected that but 343 00:14:05,269 --> 00:14:01,120 other members 344 00:14:08,870 --> 00:14:05,279 auguste c roberts and dom muchesi 345 00:14:12,470 --> 00:14:08,880 they teamed up with james mosley who 346 00:14:14,710 --> 00:14:12,480 put out the publication nexus and 347 00:14:16,870 --> 00:14:14,720 that turned into saucer news and then 348 00:14:19,430 --> 00:14:16,880 saucer smear 349 00:14:21,030 --> 00:14:19,440 so anyway that's basically uh what 350 00:14:23,430 --> 00:14:21,040 happened to the international flying 351 00:14:24,710 --> 00:14:23,440 saucer bureau they only lasted a little 352 00:14:27,990 --> 00:14:24,720 more than a year 353 00:14:30,470 --> 00:14:28,000 ah

a book uh called uh 357 00:14:39,910 --> 00:14:38,480 uh flying saucers and three men which 358 00:14:43,110 --> 00:14:39,920 barker published 359 00:14:44,949 --> 00:14:43,120 and so bender told the story uh all of a 360 00:14:46,870 --> 00:14:44,959 sudden these three men in black turn 361 00:14:47,509 --> 00:14:46,880 into these ethereal creatures from the 362 00:14:51,590 --> 00:14:47,519

00:16:28,470 --> 00:16:19,279 real good inside look into uh 399 00:16:33,189 --> 00:16:31,030 he was genuinely mystified uh but he 400 00:16:35,509 --> 00:16:33,199 kept an open mind he 401 00:16:36,629 --> 00:16:35,519 the the air force at the time there were 402 00:16:39,189 --> 00:16:36,639 two factions 403 00:16:39,749 --> 00:16:39,199 uh there were those who believed uh we 404 00:16:42,470 --> 00:16:39,759 were 405 00:16:42,949 --> 00:16:42,480 being visited by uh people from outer 406 00:16:45,189 --> 00:16:42,959 space 407 00:16:47,030 --> 00:16:45,199 and there were those who thought that 408 00:16:50,550 --> 00:16:47,040 you know it's all bunk 409 00:16:53,829 --> 00:16:50,560 um and depending on who was in charge 410 00:16:56,949 --> 00:16:53,839 that's uh the way the uh 411 00:17:00,310 --> 00:16:56,959 the various projects would go uh sign 412 00:17:02,310 --> 00:17:00,320 before and uh grudge uh and then 413 00:17:04,230 --> 00:17:02,320 finally blue

00:17:11,590 --> 00:17:10,559 well staffed or not well staffed so a 418 00:17:15,029 --> 00:17:11,600 lot of people call 419 00:17:17,909 --> 00:17:15,039 rupelts uh he only was director for 420

00:17:28,069 --> 00:17:25,600 he was a hard worker and so you know you 424 00:17:32,310 --> 00:17:28,079 gave him a job and he did it 425 00:17:36,150 --> 00:17:32,320 so he took it seriously and um the 426 00:17:39,430 --> 00:17:36,160 uh the the washington uh 427 00:17:43,830 --> 00:17:39,440 when uh 1952 there was a uh 428 00:17:47,110 --> 00:17:43,840 a flap that was uh so extreme 429 00:17:49,590 --> 00:17:47,120 i think they they had from 430 00:17:50,630 --> 00:17:49,600 i think there were like 1200 reports 431 00:17:52,950 --> 00:17:50,640 over the summer 432 00:17:55,190 --> 00:17:52,960 uh where they normally would have only a 433 00:17:58,549 --> 00:17:55,200 couple hundred during a whole year 434 00:18:00,230 --> 00:17:58,559 yeah and uh they were so it was so 435 00:18:01,190 --> 00:18:00,240 intense he wasn't able to put out any 436 00:18:03,830 --> 00:18:01,200 status reports 437 00:18:05,350 --> 00:18:03,840 in that time oh wow funny you know you 438 00:18:09,430 --> 00:18:05,360 if you know the flaps there and you look 439 00:18:14,230 --> 00:18:12,549 like sorry folks too busy so it 440 00:18:15,830 --> 00:18:14,240 kind of hit its peak with the washington 441 00:18:19,110 --> 00:18:15,840 dc he called it the washington 442 00:18:25,430 --> 00:18:22,390 blip showed up over radar um 443 00:18:28,630 --> 00:18:25,440 and they were also seen by pilots uh 444 00:18:30,070 --> 00:18:28,640 the uh would were scrambled 445 00:18:32,390 --> 00:18:30,080 they'd come in and the blips would 446 00:18:33,990 --> 00:18:32,400 disappear and then they'd leave and the 447 00:18:36,950 --> 00:18:34,000 blips would come back on 448 00:18:37,669 --> 00:18:36,960 so people were extremely concerned 449 00:18:39,190 --> 00:18:37,679 obviously 450 00:18:42,150 --> 00:18:39,200 because it's you know restricted air 451 00:18:45,190 --> 00:18:42,160 space and uh 452 00:18:47,750 --> 00:18:45,200 rupell's uh involvement in that is 453 00:18:49,669 --> 00:18:47,760 uh he couldn't even get a uh he couldn't 454 00:18:52,390 --> 00:18:49,679 manage to get a car 455 00:18:53,190 --> 00:18:52,400 uh requisitioned uh they wouldn't give 456 00:18:54,630 --> 00:18:53,200 it to him 457 00:18:56,230 --> 00:18:54,640 uh because he wasn't supposed to be 458 00:18:58,230 --> 00:18:56,240 there more than a day 459 00:19:02,070 --> 00:18:58,240 and he wanted to investigate so he just 460 00:19:05,669 --> 00:19:02,080 said you know forget it i'm going home 461 00:19:07,830 --> 00:19:05,679 but uh that case definitely influenced 462 00:19:09,990 --> 00:19:07,840 him 463 00:19:11,909 --> 00:19:10,000 i'm sure and when you read his book you 464 00:19:14,230 --> 00:19:11,919 can just kind of see where he's going 465 00:19:16,789 --> 00:19:14,240 well you know there's something going on 466 00:19:18,150 --> 00:19:16,799 i can't all be weather balloons and uh 467 00:19:21,990 --> 00:19:18,160 ball lightning 468 00:19:24,150 --> 00:19:22,000 uh so and then after uh he left blue 469 00:19:27,190 --> 00:19:24,160 book he started writing and he 470 00:19:27,669 --> 00:19:27,200 uh he was writing to kehoe and other 471 00:19:30,630 --> 00:19:27,679 people 472 00:19:31,830 --> 00:19:30,640 and uh he was actually trying to turn a 473 00:19:34,870 --> 00:19:31,840 dollar on it 474 00:19:38,070 --> 00:19:34,880 uh you know he's in the writing biz and 475 00:19:39,350 --> 00:19:38,080 his article he wrote an article i forget 476 00:19:43,990 --> 00:19:39,360 for which magazine but 477 00:19:47,110 --> 00:19:44,000 you know it did really well and is uh 478 00:19:48,870 --> 00:19:47,120 you know and then he wrote his book um 479 00:19:50,710 --> 00:19:48,880 which is pretty extraordinary because at 480 00:19:53,029 --> 00:19:50,720 the time you know it was a real inside 481 00:19:53,750 --> 00:19:53,039 look into a classified project which you 482 00:19:55,669 --> 00:19:53,760 know 483 00:19:58,070 --> 00:19:55,679 he got everything cleared by the air 484 00:20:02,070 --> 00:19:58,080 force before he published it 485 00:20:04,549 --> 00:20:02,080 uh so then he went out into the uh 486 00:20:05,190 --> 00:20:04,559 the scene and uh he actually went to the 487 00:20:11,750 --> 00:20:05,200 giant 488 00:20:14,789 --> 00:20:11,760 run by george tassel and 489 00:20:17,830 --> 00:20:14,799 encountered all the contactees 490 00:20:20,870 --> 00:20:17,840 he actually you can hear audio of him 491 00:20:23,510 --> 00:20:20,880 interviewing george damski 492 00:20:24,230 --> 00:20:23,520 uh which is hysterical because adamski 493 00:20:27,590 --> 00:20:24,240 just 494 00:20:29,669 --> 00:20:27,600 blabs on and on and on and uh he's 495 00:20:31,990 --> 00:20:29,679 rupelt is really quite polite and 496 00:20:35,590 --> 00:20:32,000 restrained 497 00:20:38,710 --> 00:20:35,600 and so you've got to know that 498 00:20:42,789 --> 00:20:38,720 that kind of circus uh affected him 499 00:20:43,750 --> 00:20:42,799 and kehoe was just pounding the air 500 00:20:47,909 --> 00:20:43,760 force 501 00:20:49,190 --> 00:20:47,919 uh and using uh you know keto was a 502 00:20:51,190 --> 00:20:49,200 ex-military 503 00:20:53,669 --> 00:20:51,200 and had a lot of uh he had some uh 504 00:20:55,830 --> 00:20:53,679 serious connections and high places 505 00:20:57,750 --> 00:20:55,840 so kehoe was able to pressure the air 506 00:20:58,950 --> 00:20:57,760 force a great deal he was convinced the 507 00:21:02,789 --> 00:20:58,960 air force 508 00:21:04,950 --> 00:21:02,799 knew we were being visited by uh uh 509 00:21:05,909 --> 00:21:04,960 you know beings from outer space and 510 00:21:09,110 --> 00:21:05,919 were uh 511 00:21:10,870 --> 00:21:09,120 hiding things from us yes he put a huge 512 00:21:13,909 --> 00:21:10,880 amount of pressure on the air force and 513 00:21:14,630 --> 00:21:13,919 rupp described him as uh having driven 514 00:21:16,710 --> 00:21:14,640 the deepest 515 00:21:18,470 --> 00:21:16,720 foreign of anybody into the side of the 516 00:21:22,710 --> 00:21:18,480 air force 517 00:21:25,750 --> 00:21:22,720 so you know my thinking is that uh 518 00:21:27,990 --> 00:21:25,760 you know as he wrote his second edition 519 00:21:31,110 --> 00:21:28,000 of the book as an update 520 00:21:33,270 --> 00:21:31,120 um you know he's seeing 521 00:21:34,870 --> 00:21:33,280 the pressure his uh his brothers are 522 00:21:36,390 --> 00:21:34,880 under and uh 523 00:21:38,149 --> 00:21:36,400 you know he just wanted to help his 524 00:21:40,390 --> 00:21:38,159 brothers out and um 525 00:21:41,909 --> 00:21:40,400 and probably he had a little disgust 526 00:21:43,909 --> 00:21:41,919 himself just 527 00:21:45,029 --> 00:21:43,919 you know having endured the circus that 528 00:21:47,750 --> 00:21:45,039 this uh 529 00:21:49,510 --> 00:21:47,760 field can uh turn into sometimes so 530 00:21:51,750 --> 00:21:49,520 that's my take on it i don't think he 531 00:21:52,870 --> 00:21:51,760 was uh directly pressured i think he was 532 00:21:55,430 --> 00:21:52,880 uh 533 00:21:56,549 --> 00:21:55,440 you know at the and maybe you know just 534 00:21:58,950 --> 00:21:56,559 at the time was 535 00:22:00,870 --> 00:21:58,960 feeling that way because i don't know 536 00:22:03,590 --> 00:22:00,880 about you but i i know 537 00:22:04,230 --> 00:22:03,600 you know i've heard from a lot of uh 538 00:22:05,990 --> 00:22:04,240 reds 539 00:22:07,350 --> 00:22:06,000 about you know a lot of other you 540 00:22:08,950 --> 00:22:07,360 followed this kind of 541 00:22:10,710 --> 00:22:08,960 going back and forth sometimes you 542 00:22:12,470 --> 00:22:10,720 believe everything sometimes you believe 543 00:22:13,190 --> 00:22:12,480 some and sometimes you think it's all 544 00:22:15,990 --> 00:22:13,200 just 545 00:22:16,870 --> 00:22:16,000 you know nuts that there's nothing to it 546 00:22:18,630 --> 00:22:16,880 so you know 547 00:22:21,270 --> 00:22:18,640 maybe he was in one of those moods is 548 00:22:24,230 --> 00:22:21,280 another thought of mine on that 549 00:22:25,990 --> 00:22:24,240 yeah yeah and i think anyone that really 550 00:22:29,270 --> 00:22:26,000 looks into this topic 551 00:22:31,830 --> 00:22:29,280 um does have you know peaks and valleys 552 00:22:32,310 -->

fed up with the bureaucratic part of 556 00:22:41,990 --> 00:22:38,559 the way things were going and 557 00:22:43,190 --> 00:22:42,000 um and uh some 558 00:22:45,110 --> 00:22:43,200 you know i'm

00:44:22,790 --> 00:44:19,760 also got press coverage 1096 00:44:25,270 --> 00:44:22,800 um so this guy claimed there were 1097 00:44:26,550 --> 00:44:25,280 saucer crashes that had been recovered 1098 00:44:30,069 --> 00:44:26,560 in uh 1099 00:44:32,069 --> 00:44:30,079 here and in africa uh so the news got 1100 00:44:33,349 --> 00:44:32,079 out and the uh hunt was on for uh who 1101 00:44:35,750 --> 00:44:33,359 this guy was 1102 00:44:36,950 --> 00:44:35,760 well they found his name was silas p 1103 00:44:40,870 --> 00:44:36,960 newton 1104 00:44:42,470 --> 00:44:40,880 who is the head of an uh oil exploration 1105 00:44:45,990 --> 00:44:42,480 company 1106 00:44:49,030 --> 00:44:46,000 uh quote unquote and 1107 00:44:49,750 --> 00:44:49,040 he happened to be friends with uh frank 1108 00:44:52,950 --> 00:44:49,760 scully 1109 00:44:54,069 --> 00:44:52,960 who uh wrote for variety magazine knew 1110 00:44:56,870 --> 00:44:54,079 him and thought hmm 1111 00:44:58,950 --> 00:44:56,880 i got a good story on my hands so he 1112 00:45:02,950 --> 00:44:58,960 contacted newton and 1113 00:45:06,230 --> 00:45:02,960 newton uh spun this yarn about um 1114 00:45:10,069 --> 00:45:06,240 him this mysterious dr g 1115 00:45:12,790 --> 00:45:10,079 uh clueing him in uh that there was a 1116 00:45:13,829 --> 00:45:12,800 flying saucer crash in aztec new mexico 1117 00:45:17,030 --> 00:45:13,839 and that it 1118 00:45:19,190 --> 00:45:17,040 had been recovered along with other uh 1119 00:45:21,190 --> 00:45:19,200 craft and now they're areas and that 1120 00:45:24,710 --> 00:45:21,200 they were investigating it 1121 00:45:27,589 --> 00:45:24,720 and had bodies and so 1122 00:45:28,309 --> 00:45:27,599 uh scully wrote it uh wrote it up in the 1123 00:45:30,829 --> 00:45:28,319 book 1124 00:45:33,109 --> 00:45:30,839 uh i think it's called behind the flying 1125 00:45:35,510 --> 00:45:33,119 saucers um 1126 00:45:36,950 --> 00:45:35,520 and basically that's the centerpiece of 1127 00:45:37,270 --> 00:45:36,960 the book the rest of the book's pretty 1128 00:45:41,109 --> 00:45:37,280 much 1129 00:45:44,309 --> 00:45:41,119 filler but he's got an amazing list of 1130 00:45:48,069 --> 00:45:44,319 newspaper reports which just for archive 1131 00:45:53,510 --> 00:45:48,079 sakes is really valuable uh he has some 1132 00:45:57,829 --> 00:45:57,430 and uh some other uh inaccurate views on 1133 00:46:00,710 --> 00:45:57,839 other 1134 00:46:01,829 --> 00:46:00,720 scientific topics but his centerpiece is 1135 00:46:05,670 --> 00:46:01,839 the uh 1136 00:46:10,710 --> 00:46:05,680 the aztec story um 1137 00:46:13,910 --> 00:46:10,720 so a reporter j.p khan looked into this 1138 00:46:15,990 --> 00:46:13,920 khan wrote an article for true magazine 1139 00:46:19,670 --> 00:46:16,000 i believe 1140 00:46:24,390 --> 00:46:19,680 and he 1141 00:46:26,790 --> 00:46:24,400 interviewed scully and newton 1142 00:46:28,150 --> 00:46:26,800 more and more newton's stories started 1143 00:46:31,430 --> 00:46:28,160 to smell 1144 00:46:36,230 --> 00:46:31,440 um and he looked more into newton 1145 00:46:41,670 --> 00:46:39,270 had a a long history as a con man 1146 00:46:44,069 --> 00:46:41,680 and what he was doing at the time was 1147 00:46:47,190 --> 00:46:44,079 bringing 1148 00:46:49,910 --> 00:46:47,200 prospective investors out to 1149 00:46:50,710 --> 00:46:49,920 oil fields and saying he had this device 1150 00:46:54,069 --> 00:46:50,720 that could find 1151 00:46:57,030 --> 00:46:54,079 oil they're called doodle bugs 1152 00:46:58,950 --> 00:46:57,040 and he claimed this that uh its 1153 00:47:00,550 --> 00:46:58,960 technology was taken from a flying 1154 00:47:04,069 --> 00:47:00,560 saucer 1155 00:47:05,349 --> 00:47:04,079 uh so he actually did get people to 1156 00:47:08,790 --> 00:47:05,359 invest 1157 00:47:11,589 --> 00:47:08,800 um he took one guy for 1158 00:47:12,470 --> 00:47:11,599 over two hundred thousand dollars khan 1159 00:47:14,309 --> 00:47:12,480 found the guy 1160 00:47:15,750 --> 00:47:14,319 and said you want to press charges your 1161 00:47:19,030 --> 00:47:15,760 time's running out 1162 00:47:19,910 --> 00:47:19,040 uh so the guy did and newton went to 1163 00:47:23,270 --> 00:47:19,920 trial 1164 00:47:25,589 --> 00:47:23,280 the mysterious dr g um 1165 00:47:27,910 --> 00:47:25,599 cotton pretty much felt was this guy 1166 00:47:31,430 --> 00:47:27,920 named leo gebauer 1167 00:47:34,950 --> 00:47:31,440 uh bauer was 1168 00:47:38,470 --> 00:47:34,960 a partner with um newton 1169 00:47:39,750 --> 00:47:38,480 in his doodlebug scheme so both of them 1170 00:47:43,109 --> 00:47:39,760 ended up on trial 1171 00:47:46,549 --> 00:47:43,119 and uh they both lost um 1172 00:47:49,589 --> 00:47:46,559 the funny part is that uh 1173 00:47:52,390 --> 00:47:49,599 they were ordered to um 1174 00:47:54,309 --> 00:47:52,400 they were ordered to pay restitution and 1175 00:47:56,549 --> 00:47:54,319 in order to do so 1176 00:47:59,670 --> 00:47:56,559 newton immediately went and sold a bunch 1177 00:48:04,150 --> 00:47:59,680 of worthless uranium stock 1178 00:48:08,549 --> 00:48:04,160 but somehow newton got off off scot-free 1179 00:48:11,750 --> 00:48:08,559 so so that's uh basically the source 1180 00:48:13,829 --> 00:48:11,760 so if that's uh you know a credible 1181 00:48:16,950 --> 00:48:13,839 source 1182 00:48:20,069 --> 00:48:16,960 you know you tell me well i i brought 1183 00:48:23,190 --> 00:48:20,079 i did have the ramses on i don't know 1184 00:48:25,030 --> 00:48:23,200 maybe a year and a half ago or something 1185 00:48:28,069 --> 00:48:25,040 like that i can't remember 1186 00:48:31,750 --> 00:48:28,079 and they've done a deep dive into this 1187 00:48:35,430 --> 00:48:31,760 researching and they they actually think 1188 00:48:37,109 --> 00:48:35,440 that despite all the uh you know the the 1189 00:48:40,470 --> 00:48:37,119 con involved there 1190 00:48:41,109 --> 00:48:40,480 um not uh making a pun of the guy's last 1191 00:48:44,309 --> 00:48:41,119 name 1192 00:48:46,390 --> 00:48:44,319 but um they think that um 1193 00:48:47,430 --> 00:48:46,400 there there was actually something to it 1194 00:48:49,750 --> 00:48:47,440 and i don't know 1195 00:48:50,950 --> 00:48:49,760 i don't

there's 1199 00:49:00,549 --> 00:48:58,720 uh you know that it is wrong but 1200 00:49:02,069 --> 00:49:00,559 there are some people that think there's 1201 00:49:04,870 --> 00:49:02,079 really something to it 1202 00:49:05,910 --> 00:49:04,880 and um you know maybe something worth 1203 00:49:07,349 --> 00:49:05,920 bringing up 1204 00:49:09,109 --> 00:49:07,359 if you ever get real
