00:05:46,310 --> 00:05:43,600 the last 50 years that i've been 127 00:05:47,029 --> 00:05:46,320 involved with reading and researching 128 00:05:50,790 --> 00:05:47,039 and 129 00:05:52,870 --> 00:05:50,800 about ufos 130 00:05:55,510 --> 00:05:52,880 and and i remember when i first started 131 00:05:57,029 --> 00:05:55,520 out my attitude was oh they must be from 132 00:05:59,350 --> 00:05:57,039 alpha centauri 133 00:06:02,309 --> 00:05:59,360 they must be from the pleiades or why 134 00:06:04,469 --> 00:06:02,319 not zeta reticuli yeah uh 135 00:06:07,189 --> 00:06:04,479 and and my attitude was 136 00:06:10,309 --> 00:06:07,199 this technology must mean they have to 137 00:06:12,710 --> 00:06:10,319 be coming from other planets now 138 00:06:14,629 --> 00:06:12,720 i've sort of modified that 139 00:06:17,749 --> 00:06:14,639 i think that some 140 00:06:20,469 --> 00:06:17,759 ufos like uh our old friend nuclear 141 00:06:22,629 --> 00:06:20,479 physicist stan friedman you used to say 142 00:06:25,029 --> 00:06:22,639 and says on the album that we're talking 143 00:06:27,029 --> 00:06:25,039 about tonight he starts it off by saying 144 00:06:29,830 --> 00:06:27,039 some ufos 145 00:06:32,870 --> 00:06:29,840 are uh definitely you know intelligently 146 00:06:37,430 --> 00:06:32,880 controlled extraterrestrial vehicles yes 147 00:06:41,110 --> 00:06:37,440 uh and i believe that i don't think all 148 00:06:43,350 --> 00:06:41,120 unexplained ufos are that because 149 00:06:45,510 --> 00:06:43,360 geez as we now know 150 00:06:46,870 --> 00:06:45,520 is there anybody out there who hasn't 151 00:06:49,430 --> 00:06:46,880 yet seen 152 00:06:52,390 --> 00:06:49,440 the new images from the james webb space 153 00:06:54,950 --> 00:06:52,400 telescope they're just beautiful wow 154 00:06:57,670 --> 00:06:54,960 yeah i mean this this to me 155 00:06:59,350 --> 00:06:57,680 if anyone ever says to me hey what do 156 00:07:01,189 --> 00:06:59,360 you think is proof that we're not out 157 00:07:02,469 --> 00:07:01,199 that we're not alone 158 00:07:05,749 --> 00:07:02,479 that's proof 159 00:07:07,430 --> 00:07:05,759 look at the images and what it's showing 160 00:07:09,350 --> 00:07:07,440 and it will make 161 00:07:10,309 --> 00:07:09,360 all of us seem 162 00:07:12,070 --> 00:07:10,319 so 163 00:07:13,589 --> 00:07:12,080 insignificant i was going to say 164 00:07:15,029 --> 00:07:13,599 insignificant but maybe that's not the 165 00:07:17,189 --> 00:07:15,039 appropriate word 166 00:07:19,670 --> 00:07:17,199 to use because i don't want us to think 167 00:07:20,390 --> 00:07:19,680 that we're insignificant 168 00:07:21,749 --> 00:07:20,400 but 169 00:07:24,390 --> 00:07:21,759 oh my god 170 00:07:25,749 --> 00:07:24,400 the images are now showing and and the 171 00:07:27,029 --> 00:07:25,759 scientists 172 00:07:29,270 --> 00:07:27,039 are saying 173 00:07:31,270 --> 00:07:29,280 without denying it yeah we're definitely 174 00:07:33,350 --> 00:07:31,280 not alone because look at who our 175 00:07:36,230 --> 00:07:33,360 neighbors are they're everywhere 176 00:07:39,510 --> 00:07:36,240 everywhere we look now and now we can 177 00:07:40,390 --> 00:07:39,520 see right there we're looking at a very 178 00:07:42,469 --> 00:07:40,400 very 179 00:07:44,710 --> 00:07:42,479 tiny tiny 180 00:07:45,749 --> 00:07:44,720 grain of sand 181 00:07:48,469 --> 00:07:45,759 image 182 00:07:51,350 --> 00:07:48,479 of outer space that shows 183 00:07:53,830 --> 00:07:51,360 thousands of galaxies 184 00:07:55,909 --> 00:07:53,840 and and people have to understand if 185 00:07:59,350 --> 00:07:55,919 they don't know what a galaxy is 186 00:08:02,230 --> 00:07:59,360 we live on a planet our planet is one of 187 00:08:05,510 --> 00:08:02,240 several that is in orbit around what we 188 00:08:08,710 --> 00:08:05,520 call the sun but the sun is a star 189 00:08:11,990 --> 00:08:08,720 we know that galaxies are made up of 190 00:08:14,869 --> 00:08:12,000 like billions and billions of stars and 191 00:08:17,749 --> 00:08:14,879 now astronomy is telling us 192 00:08:19,830 --> 00:08:17,759 those billions and billions of stars in 193 00:08:20,950 --> 00:08:19,840 each galaxy 194 00:08:25,189 --> 00:08:20,960 contain 195 00:08:29,589 --> 00:08:25,199 they have planets orbiting them 196 00:08:31,589 --> 00:08:29,599 and and so the numbers are are so s 197 00:08:33,990 --> 00:08:31,599 it's not scattered it's just 198 00:08:35,190 --> 00:08:34,000 mind-boggling we we almost can't 199 00:08:37,509 --> 00:08:35,200 conceive 200 00:08:38,870 --> 00:08:37,519 of what we're talking about here that 201 00:08:40,709 --> 00:08:38,880 that we 202 00:08:42,949 --> 00:08:40,719 i don't think anybody 203 00:08:45,430 --> 00:08:42,959 that logically thinks about this will 204 00:08:47,670 --> 00:08:45,440 say yeah we're the only ones out here no 205 00:08:50,150 --> 00:08:47,680 we couldn't possibly been 206 00:08:53,750 --> 00:08:50,160 would a creator of the entire universe 207 00:08:56,630 --> 00:08:53,760 have only chosen our little

a book 285 00:12:03,590 --> 00:12:01,440 actually know maybe a little earlier the 286 00:12:07,910 --> 00:12:03,600 book called the interrupted journey by 287 00:12:10,710 --> 00:12:07,920 john fuller yep in which he described 288 00:12:11,509 --> 00:12:10,720 the amazing story of betty and barney 289 00:12:13,110 --> 00:12:11,519 hill 290 00:12:15,509 --> 00:12:13,120 of new hampshire and i grew

for a vinyl documentary 624 00:25:05,669 --> 00:25:04,159 recording that i was going to produce 625 00:25:07,590 --> 00:25:05,679 for cbs 626 00:25:09,510 --> 00:25:07,600 and people said sure 627 00:25:11,350 --> 00:25:09,520 and we worked out the deal 628 00:25:13,750 --> 00:25:11,360 so that uh 629 00:25:15,669 --> 00:25:13,760 if if they bought the record album from 630 00:25:16,710 --> 00:25:15,679 the tv commercial we ended up having for 631 00:25:19,269 --> 00:25:16,720 it 632 00:25:20,630 --> 00:25:19,279 uh if you didn't like the album or the 633 00:25:22,870 --> 00:25:20,640 eight-track tape 634 00:25:25,269 --> 00:25:22,880 well okay you could send the album back 635 00:25:29,750 --> 00:25:25,279 to us but keep the book keep the ralph 636 00:25:34,310 --> 00:25:31,510 you know you don't see much of that kind 637 00:25:35,669 --> 00:25:34,320 of stuff anymore no no but it was the 638 00:25:37,750 --> 00:25:35,679 first time 639 00:25:39,510 --> 00:25:37,760 uh it kind of became an instant classic 640 00:25:40,830 --> 00:25:39,520 in in ufology 641 00:25:43,590 --> 00:25:40,840 it was the first time that a major 642 00:25:46,870 --> 00:25:43,600 recording company like cbs 643 00:25:49,269 --> 00:25:46,880 offered a ufo product to the public 644 00:25:50,789 --> 00:25:49,279 it was the first time that a ufo 645 00:25:52,950 --> 00:25:50,799 documentary 646 00:25:55,190 --> 00:25:52,960 was presented on tv in a two-minute 647 00:25:57,110 --> 00:25:55,200 infomercial 648 00:26:00,870 --> 00:25:57,120 and it was one of the first 649 00:26:01,909 --> 00:26:00,880 ufo products that dr j allen heineck 650 00:26:03,750 --> 00:26:01,919 chose 651 00:26:06,549 --> 00:26:03,760 that was offered for sale in the 652 00:26:07,750 --> 00:26:06,559 renowned edmond scientific catalog at 653 00:26:09,430 --> 00:26:07,760 the time 654 00:26:11,269 --> 00:26:09,440 edmund scientific 655 00:26:13,190 --> 00:26:11,279 approached dr heineck and asked him if 656 00:26:15,350 --> 00:26:13,200 he would choose some products related to 657 00:26:18,149 --> 00:26:15,360 ufos because they wanted to devote an 658 00:26:20,310 --> 00:26:18,159 entire section and page in their science 659 00:26:22,789 --> 00:26:20,320 catalog 660 00:26:25,510 --> 00:26:22,799 and so he chose a variety of things like 661 00:26:27,750 --> 00:26:25,520 best books he liked best slide shows and 662 00:26:31,269 --> 00:26:27,760 mine was the only record that was 663 00:26:34,470 --> 00:26:31,279 offered and it was like wow 664 00:26:36,630 --> 00:26:34,480 it was just i couldn't believe my luck 665 00:26:38,710 --> 00:26:36,640 of getting that far 666 00:26:41,190 --> 00:26:38,720 so quickly and so 667 00:26:43,269 --> 00:26:41,200 okay i came to new york with a guitar 668

singing it was 671 00:26:51,430 --> 00:26:49,679 about chasing extraterrestrials go 672 00:26:53,590 --> 00:26:51,440 figure 673 00:26:55,350 --> 00:26:53,600 well it's great and i'd like to play i'd

the other one is uh is about four 680 00:27:10,549 --> 00:27:09,200 minutes but this is six and a half 681 00:27:11,990 --> 00:27:10,559 minutes i'll play it right now here it 682 00:27:15,190 --> 00:27:12,000 goes 683 00:27:16,870 --> 00:27:15,200 october 18 1973 684 00:27:18,630 --> 00:27:16,880 a terrifying encounter takes place 685 00:27:21,190 --> 00:27:18,640 between a four-man crew aboard an army 686 00:27:23,350 --> 00:27:21,200 helicopter and a ufo 687 00:27:25,350 --> 00:27:23,360 while the crew is on route to cleveland 688 00:27:27,350 --> 00:27:25,360 ohio from columbus 689 00:27:29,430 --> 00:27:27,360 this mid-air drama is witnessed by 690 00:27:30,630 --> 00:27:29,440 several ground observers and is 691 00:27:33,269 --> 00:27:30,640 considered to be one of the most 692 00:27:35,590 --> 00:27:33,279 impressive sightings in history 693 00:27:37,510 --> 00:27:35,600 the commander of the helicopter major 694 00:27:39,909 --> 00:27:37,520 larry coyne and his crew 695 00:27:43,029 --> 00:27:39,919 thought at first that the light on the 696 00:27:45,190 --> 00:27:43,039 horizon was a radio tower beacon the 697 00:27:48,549 --> 00:27:45,200 crew chief on the helicopter observed a 698 00:27:51,029 --> 00:27:48,559 light a red light on the east horizon 699 00:27:53,190 --> 00:27:51,039 he then informed me that the light was 700 00:27:56,070 --> 00:27:53,200 closing on the helicopter that it was 701 00:27:58,310 --> 00:27:56,080 coming at us on a collision course 702 00:28:00,149 --> 00:27:58,320 and i looked to the right and i observed 703 00:28:02,870 --> 00:28:00,159 that the object became bigger and the 704 00:28:04,789 --> 00:28:02,880 light became brighter and i began to 705 00:28:06,549 --> 00:28:04,799 descend the helicopter towards the 706 00:28:09,029 --> 00:28:06,559 ground to get out of the collision 707 00:28:11,029 --> 00:28:09,039 course path this object continued to 708 00:28:12,470 --> 00:28:11,039 come directly at the aircraft it was 709 00:28:14,549 --> 00:28:12,480 like a missile locked onto the 710 00:28:16,630 --> 00:28:14,559 helicopter it looked like we were going 711 00:28:19,350 --> 00:28:16,640 to collide with it and we braced for 712 00:28:21,350 --> 00:28:19,360 impact then i heard the crewmen in the 713 00:28:23,669 --> 00:28:21,360 back say look up and i did and i 714 00:28:24,710 --> 00:28:23,679 observed this crap stopped directly in 715 00:28:26,310 --> 00:28:24,720 front of us 716 00:28:27,830 --> 00:28:26,320 it was hovering right over the 717 00:28:29,669 --> 00:28:27,840 helicopter 718 00:28:31,269 --> 00:28:29,679 we assumed it was a high performance 719 00:28:33,110 --> 00:28:31,279 fighter but when it stopped directly in 720 00:28:36,149 --> 00:28:33,120 front of us all four of us realized was 721 00:28:37,990 --> 00:28:36,159 no high performance aircraft this crab 722 00:28:39,110 --> 00:28:38,000 from the angle we thought was cigar 723 00:28:41,750 --> 00:28:39,120 shaped 724 00:28:42,870 --> 00:28:41,760 these four men are trained military 725 00:28:44,950 --> 00:28:42,880 personnel 726 00:28:46,549 --> 00:28:44,960 with thousands of hours of flying time 727 00:28:48,149 --> 00:28:46,559 behind them 728 00:28:49,590 --> 00:28:48,159 what occurred next might seem like 729 00:28:53,110 --> 00:28:49,600 science fiction 730 00:28:54,470 --> 00:28:53,120 but it happened we were 1700 feet 731 00:28:56,310 --> 00:28:54,480 at this time i was worried we were going 732 00:28:58,950 --> 00:28:56,320 to hit the ground and i looked at my 733 00:29:01,029 --> 00:28:58,960 altimeter and the our helicopter was 734 00:29:03,110 --> 00:29:01,039 three thousand five hundred feet 735 00:29:05,669 --> 00:29:03,120 climbing a thousand feet a minute with 736 00:29:07,669 --> 00:29:05,679 no changes in the control we went from 737 00:29:09,590 --> 00:29:07,679 seventeen hundred feet to three thousand 738 00:29:11,029 --> 00:29:09,600 five hundred feet in a matter of seconds 739 00:29:12,389 --> 00:29:11,039 and never knew it 740 00:29:14,310 --> 00:29:12,399 there was a bump 741 00:29:15,909 --> 00:29:14,320 like turbulence at which time we had 742 00:29:17,750 --> 00:29:15,919 control of the aircraft again then we 743 00:29:20,149 --> 00:29:17,760 continued on to cleveland 744 00:29:22,149 --> 00:29:20,159 to encounter a ufo when it does approach 745 00:29:23,830 --> 00:29:22,159 the aircraft you have no idea what it is 746 00:29:25,350 --> 00:29:23,840 well i think if it wanted to collide 747 00:29:26,710 --> 00:29:25,360 with us it could have but you can't get 748 00:29:28,789 --> 00:29:26,720 away from it you don't have that much 749 00:29:30,549 --> 00:29:28,799 time to respond 750 00:29:32,549 --> 00:29:30,559 some ufos 751 00:29:34,870 --> 00:29:32,559 are really flying saucers in other words 752 00:29:36,070 --> 00:29:34,880 are really somebody else's spacecraft 753 00:29:38,710 --> 00:29:36,080 intelligently controlled 754 00:29:41,190 --> 00:29:38,720 extraterrestrial vehicles stanton 755 00:29:42,870 --> 00:29:41,200 friedman nuclear physicist who says we 756 00:29:44,630 --> 00:29:42,880 must keep open minds regarding the 757 00:29:46,470 --> 00:29:44,640 reality of ufos coming from other 758 00:29:48,310 --> 00:29:46,480 planets they probably come from a 759 00:29:49,750 --> 00:29:48,320 variety of sources for a variety of 760 00:29:51,669 --> 00:29:49,760 purposes certainly there's an 761 00:29:53,909 --> 00:29:51,679 intelligence behind the maneuverability 762 00:29:55,269 --> 00:29:53,919 and one of the places where even people 763 00:29:57,190 --> 00:29:55,279 who want to believe in ufos come a 764 00:29:59,110 --> 00:29:57,200 cropper as they don't understand the 765 00:30:00,470 --> 00:29:59,120 maneuverability that's not mystery it's 766 00:30:02,310 --> 00:30:00,480 technology 767 00:30:05,029 --> 00:30:02,320 when somebody says that that bit of ufo 768 00:30:06,630 --> 00:30:05,039 behavior is impossible what they mean is 769 00:30:08,149 --> 00:30:06,640 i don't know how to do that and if i 770 00:30:10,149 --> 00:30:08,159 don't know how to do it it must be 771 00:30:11,830 --> 00:30:10,159 impossible well that kind of approach is 772 00:30:14,870 --> 00:30:11,840 obviously ridiculous i mean it's not 773 00:30:19,590 --> 00:30:17,510 in our own space program many ufos have 774 00:30:21,750 --> 00:30:19,600 been reported by the astronauts 775 00:30:25,430 --> 00:30:21,760 the first sighting took place in june of 776 00:30:28,070 --> 00:30:25,440 1965 on the gemini 4 mission 777 00:30:31,029 --> 00:30:28,080 astronaut jim mcdivitt caught sight of a 778 00:30:32,710 --> 00:30:31,039 strange-looking object out in space 779 00:30:33,909 --> 00:30:32,720 at the time that i saw it i said there 780 00:30:35,430 --> 00:30:33,919 was something up in front of me that 781 00:30:36,870 --> 00:30:35,440 were outside the spacecraft that i 782 00:30:38,470 --> 00:30:36,880 couldn't identify 783 00:30:40,389 --> 00:30:38,480 and i never have been able to identify 784 00:30:42,470 --> 00:30:40,399 and i don't think anybody ever will 785 00:30:44,710 --> 00:30:42,480 we were in drifting flight and my 786 00:30:46,710 --> 00:30:44,720 partner ed white was asleep spacecraft 787 00:30:48,630 --> 00:30:46,720 was drifting around and as it was 788 00:30:50,389 --> 00:30:48,640 rotating around i noticed something out 789 00:30:52,389 --> 00:30:50,399 in front that was a white cylindrical 790 00:30:53,830 --> 00:30:52,399 shape with a white pole sticking out of 791 00:30:55,590 --> 00:30:53,840 one corner of it 792 00:30:58,070 --> 00:30:55,600 it had about the same dimensional 793 00:31:00,230 --> 00:30:58,080 relationship as a beer can with a smooth 794 00:31:01,830 --> 00:31:00,240 pencil sticking out one corner of it 795 00:31:03,750 --> 00:31:01,840 i couldn't tell how close it was and i 796 00:31:05,430 --> 00:31:03,760 couldn't tell what the size was 797 00:31:07,509 --> 00:31:05,440 i thought i might run into it so i 798 00:31:09,430 --> 00:31:07,519 turned on the flight control system and 799 00:31:11,110 --> 00:31:09,440 in the meantime i grabbed two cameras 800 00:31:13,190 --> 00:31:11,120 which were floating in the spacecraft 801 00:31:14,630 --> 00:31:13,200 and i grabbed one and took a picture and 802 00:31:16,470 --> 00:31:14,640 i let go of it and i grabbed the other 803 00:31:17,909 --> 00:31:16,480 one took a picture as the sun's showing 804 00:31:19,669 --> 00:31:17,919 on the window i could no longer see out 805 00:31:21,990 --> 00:31:19,679 and the thing just disappeared i never 806 00:31:24,549 --> 00:31:22,000 did find out what it was and nobody else 807 00:31:26,870 --> 00:31:24,559 ever did either they checked the norad 808 00:31:28,549 --> 00:31:26,880 records to see what they had up on radar 809 00:31:30,630 --> 00:31:28,559 and there wasn't anything within a very 810 00:31:31,669 --> 00:31:30,640 close range of us i've seen the photos 811 00:31:33,909 --> 00:31:31,679 that were released i've seen them 812 00:31:36,070 --> 00:31:33,919 published in magazines and newspapers 813 00:31:37,909 --> 00:31:36,080 now i went back and went through each 814 00:31:39,509 --> 00:31:37,919 frame of all the pictures that we took 815 00:31:42,149 --> 00:31:39,519 after the flight and there wasn't 816 00:31:44,870 --> 00:31:42,159 anything in there like what i had seen 817 00:31:45,830 --> 00:31:44,880 general mcdivot has made it absolutely 818 00:31:48,389 --> 00:31:45,840 clear 819 00:31:50,470 --> 00:31:48,399 that nasa never did show him any 820 00:31:52,070 --> 00:31:50,480 pictures of the object which he 821 00:31:54,549 --> 00:31:52,080 photographed 822 00:31:56,389 --> 00:31:54,559 another astronaut colonel gordon cooper 823 00:31:59,750 --> 00:31:56,399 originally was assigned to a jet fighter 824 00:32:02,230 --> 00:31:59,760 group in germany during the early 1950s 825 00:32:04,870 --> 00:32:02,240 he recounts the day a group of circular 826 00:32:06,870 --> 00:32:04,880 objects passed over the air base 827 00:32:08,870 --> 00:32:06,880 a weatherman spotted some strange 828 00:32:10,470 --> 00:32:08,880 objects flying apparently fairly high 829 00:32:12,470 --> 00:32:10,480 altitude with some large binoculars 830 00:32:14,710 --> 00:32:12,480 while tracking a weather balloon before 831 00:32:16,710 --> 00:32:14,720 long the entire fighter group was out 832 00:32:19,750 --> 00:32:16,720 peering through binoculars at these 833 00:32:21,830 --> 00:32:19,760 groups of objects coming over and all in 834 00:32:23,430 --> 00:32:21,840 very strange patterns resembling fighter 835 00:32:25,509 --> 00:32:23,440 formations 836 00:32:27,190 --> 00:32:25,519 but unlike fighters they would almost 837 00:32:29,750 --> 00:32:27,200 stop in their forward velocity and 838 00:32:31,029 --> 00:32:29,760 chains 90 degrees sometimes in their 839 00:32:32,870 --> 00:32:31,039 flight path 840 00:32:35,190 --> 00:32:32,880 we never could get close enough really 841 00:32:37,430 --> 00:32:35,200 to pin them down but they were round in 842 00:32:39,750 --> 00:32:37,440 shape and very metallic looking 843 00:32:41,509 --> 00:32:39,760 personally i believe in ufos and my 844 00:32:42,549 --> 00:32:41,519 personal opinion is that i think that 845 00:32:45,110 --> 00:32:42,559 they are 846 00:32:47,269 --> 00:32:45,120 very likely travelers from some other 847 00:32:49,750 --> 00:32:47,279 planet if not in our galaxy in a 848 00:32:51,590 --> 00:32:49,760 neighboring galaxy blisters from some 849 00:32:54,230 --> 00:32:51,600 planet that is hundreds or thousands of 850 00:32:56,149 --> 00:32:54,240 years more developed than we are 851 00:32:58,149 --> 00:32:56,159 i think we can navigate equally as well 852 00:33:00,230 --> 00:32:58,159 as they do but we certainly don't have 853 00:33:02,149 --> 00:33:00,240 the sophisticated propulsion systems 854 00:33:04,710 --> 00:33:02,159 that they apparently do 855 00:33:06,630 --> 00:33:04,720 colonel cooper also recalls an incident 856 00:33:09,509 --> 00:33:06,640 that took place at the edwards air force 857 00:33:11,029 --> 00:33:09,519 base flight test center in california 858 00:33:14,789 --> 00:33:11,039 and to this day 859 00:33:17,029 --> 00:33:14,799 the photographic evidence is unavailable 860 00:33:19,190 --> 00:33:17,039 the case of one that landed out on the 861 00:33:21,190 --> 00:33:19,200 dry lake bed right out from 862 00:33:23,350 --> 00:33:21,200 a number of camera crews we had who 863 00:33:25,430 --> 00:33:23,360 found it and the film was there and sent 864 00:33:37,450 --> 00:33:25,440 forward to a safe keeping somewhere in 865 00:33:37,460 --> 00:33:45,669 [Laughter] 866 00:33:49,830 --> 00:33:47,269 we'll play a clip i'll leave from the 867 00:33:53,029 --> 00:33:49,840 other side in a little bit so this is 868 00:33:55,190 --> 00:33:53,039 just a small clip it's i think it's 869 00:33:56,870 --> 00:33:55,200 20 some odd minutes long and this is 870 00:34:00,230 --> 00:33:56,880 just so that was a six minute clip from 871 00:34:02,070 --> 00:34:00,240 one side uh 20 minutes some 20 some odd 872 00:34:03,029 --> 00:34:02,080 minutes on to each side i believe right 873 00:34:05,909 --> 00:34:03,039 lee 874 00:34:09,349 --> 00:34:05,919 yeah and and you know martin 875 00:34:10,230 --> 00:34:09,359 really for all these years 44 45 years 876 00:34:11,829 --> 00:34:10,240 later 877 00:34:14,149 --> 00:34:11,839 every time 878 00:34:15,750 --> 00:34:14,159 i hear any of these clips or any of 879 00:34:19,109 --> 00:34:15,760 these voices 880 00:34:22,950 --> 00:34:19,119 and it reminds me 881 00:34:25,270 --> 00:34:22,960 how fortunate i was and how lucky i was 882 00:34:27,829 --> 00:34:25,280 to get to meet these people and to talk 883 00:34:33,270 --> 00:34:30,389 and to have them say things 884 00:34:34,470 --> 00:34:33,280 about what they encountered that people 885 00:34:37,829 --> 00:34:34,480 are still 886 00:34:40,470 --> 00:34:37,839 claiming to report today 887 00:34:42,230 --> 00:34:40,480 it's like nothing has changed yeah that 888 00:34:43,669 --> 00:34:42,240 that's that's the most important thing 889 00:34:47,990 --> 00:34:43,679 it's like if i just decided to get 890 00:34:48,710 --> 00:34:48,000 involved with ufos today in 2022 i might 891 00:34:50,790 --> 00:34:48,720 not 892 00:34:52,950 --> 00:34:50,800 have the passion about 893 00:34:55,030 --> 00:34:52,960 wanting to remind people that this is 894 00:34:56,230 --> 00:34:55,040 nothing new that we're hearing about in 895 00:34:58,069 --> 00:34:56,240 the news 896 00:35:00,790 --> 00:34:58,079 it might be new to people who haven't 897 00:35:01,750 --> 00:35:00,800 really spent much time thinking about it 898 00:35:05,030 --> 00:35:01,760 but 899 00:35:07,430 --> 00:35:05,040 everybody needs to be reminded 900 00:35:09,349 --> 00:35:07,440 that this has been going on like as the 901 00:35:11,510 --> 00:35:09,359 air force told the cadets 902 00:35:13,109 --> 00:35:11,520 it's been going on for tens of thousands 903 00:35:14,870 --> 00:35:13,119 of years 904 00:35:17,430 --> 00:35:14,880 and 905 00:35:18,310 --> 00:35:17,440 it's so frustrating to me 906 00:35:20,069 --> 00:35:18,320 that 907 00:35:21,910 --> 00:35:20,079 nothing has changed and yet we get 908 00:35:24,790 --> 00:35:21,920 little bits and pieces the government 909 00:35:28,230 --> 00:35:24,800 now just in the last few years has kind 910 00:35:31,990 --> 00:35:28,240 of acknowledged the reality of ufos 911 00:35:34,230 --> 00:35:32,000 um the navy has shown us their little 912 00:35:37,589 --> 00:35:34,240 videos now everybody's talking about the 913 00:35:41,349 --> 00:35:37,599 tic tac videos the go fast video the 914 00:35:43,030 --> 00:35:41,359 fleer video oh wow okay the navy is like 915 00:35:44,550 --> 00:35:43,040 chasing these things and i keep 916 00:35:46,390 --> 00:35:44,560 wondering now 917 00:35:49,190 --> 00:35:46,400 after all the decades 918 00:35:53,510 --> 00:35:49,200 ever since the united states air force 919 00:35:57,030 --> 00:35:53,520 closed project blue book in 1969 1970 920 00:35:59,270 --> 00:35:57,040 and after decades of denying that that 921 00:36:02,710 --> 00:35:59,280 anything unbelievable happened at 922 00:36:05,829 --> 00:36:02,720 roswell new mexico in 1947 923 00:36:07,910 --> 00:36:05,839 denial denials denials all of a sudden 924 00:36:09,910 --> 00:36:07,920 when the navy started talking about just 925 00:36:12,710 --> 00:36:09,920 over the last few years about their own 926 00:36:15,030 --> 00:36:12,720 jet fighter pilots having encounters 927 00:36:18,230 --> 00:36:15,040 with ufos off the east coast off the 928 00:36:20,230 --> 00:36:18,240 west coast now almost on a daily basis 929 00:36:21,910 --> 00:36:20,240 i'm saying to people where's the air 930 00:36:23,349 --> 00:36:21,920 force 931 00:36:24,829 --> 00:36:23,359 why why haven't we heard from the air 932 00:36:27,430 --> 00:36:24,839 force because 933 00:36:29,829 --> 00:36:27,440 technically isn't the air force 934 00:36:33,270 --> 00:36:29,839 protecting the sky protecting the skies 935 00:36:35,750 --> 00:36:33,280 like hello air force it's it's almost as 936 00:36:37,670 --> 00:36:35,760 if they're saying you know what we've 937 00:36:40,710 --> 00:36:37,680 had enough egg on our face for a long 938 00:36:44,230 --> 00:36:40,720 time let the navy deal with this 939 00:36:46,069 --> 00:36:44,240 that that's what i'm feeling i wonder 940 00:36:48,870 --> 00:36:46,079 it's it's been a puzzle 941 00:36:50,870 --> 00:36:48,880 um why they have not you know i mean you 942 00:36:53,190 --> 00:36:50,880 would think that it would they would be 943 00:36:55,910 --> 00:36:53,200 in the in the front on this 944 00:36:58,870 --> 00:36:55,920 um because it's it's the skies i think 945 00:37:00,870 --> 00:36:58,880 the navy has done a great job yeah 946 00:37:02,310 --> 00:37:00,880 uh and it's it's so weird because you'd 947 00:37:04,550 --> 00:37:02,320 think that they that they would would 948 00:37:07,190 --> 00:37:04,560 want to do something like together okay 949 00:37:09,510 --> 00:37:07,200 air force since we have jurisdiction 950 00:37:11,990 --> 00:37:09,520 over the skies we'll cover all the 951 00:37:14,550 --> 00:37:12,000 things in the skies you navy 952 00:37:18,069 --> 00:37:14,560 you've got the oceans you cover the usos 953 00:37:20,630 --> 00:37:18,079 the unidentified submersible objects 954 00:37:23,109 --> 00:37:20,640 so you know you do the yeah 955 00:37:24,870 --> 00:37:23,119 that makes more sense i know let's work 956 00:37:27,910 --> 00:37:24,880 together but no 957 00:37:29,270 --> 00:37:27,920 the air force is like nowhere to be seen 958 00:37:30,390 --> 00:37:29,280 oh my god 959 00:37:33,670 --> 00:37:30,400 yeah 960 00:37:35,190 --> 00:37:33,680 but uh i think that all reporting now 961 00:37:37,510 --> 00:37:35,200 that there's going there are some 962 00:37:39,349 --> 00:37:37,520 changes so all the re there will not be 963 00:37:40,790 --> 00:37:39,359 the stigma about reporting for the air 964 00:37:42,950 --> 00:37:40,800 force as well 965 00:37:45,030 --> 00:37:42,960 for all military from what i understand 966 00:37:47,990 --> 00:37:45,040 right i mean they're trying to make it 967 00:37:50,390 --> 00:37:48,000 uh more of available to 968 00:37:53,109 --> 00:37:50,400 military personnel who want to report 969 00:37:55,270 --> 00:37:53,119 something give them specific routes and 970 00:37:55,990 --> 00:37:55,280 and places to go to and people to talk 971 00:37:58,310 --> 00:37:56,000 to 972 00:38:00,150 --> 00:37:58,320 but it it doesn't 973 00:38:02,870 --> 00:38:00,160 it doesn't solve 974 00:38:05,030 --> 00:38:02,880 the mystery of what we're talking about 975 00:38:06,950 --> 00:38:05,040 and what we're dealing with here 976 00:38:08,710 --> 00:38:06,960 i don't i don't want to know who to 977 00:38:09,829 --> 00:38:08,720 report something to 978 00:38:12,230 --> 00:38:09,839 i want 979 00:38:14,150 --> 00:38:12,240 someone who's in command 980 00:38:17,190 --> 00:38:14,160 and i don't know if that's anyone who's 981 00:38:19,910 --> 00:38:17,200 in the united states or even in any 982 00:38:23,430 --> 00:38:19,920 country maybe it's a united nations 983 00:38:26,470 --> 00:38:23,440 thing but but i think what the public 984 00:38:29,910 --> 00:38:26,480 really deserves or needs 985 00:38:32,950 --> 00:38:31,430 equilateral 986 00:38:34,069 --> 00:38:32,960 international 987 00:38:36,310 --> 00:38:34,079 voice 988 00:38:39,030 --> 00:38:36,320 something or someone that speaks for the 989 00:38:40,390 --> 00:38:39,040 nations of earth for all the citizens of 990 00:38:42,069 --> 00:38:40,400 earth to say 991 00:38:44,390 --> 00:38:42,079 all right folks 992 00:38:48,310 --> 00:38:44,400 now that we have sort of acknowledged 993 00:38:50,550 --> 00:38:48,320 the reality of many ufos we're not just 994 00:38:52,230 --> 00:38:50,560 ridiculing people anymore 995 00:38:54,230 --> 00:38:52,240 we're not making you think that that 996 00:38:55,910 --> 00:38:54,240 thing that you saw the other night that 997 00:38:57,270 --> 00:38:55,920 was zig-zagging in the sky we're not 998 00:38:58,790 --> 00:38:57,280 going to try and make you believe that 999 00:39:01,589 --> 00:38:58,800 was venus 1000 00:39:03,270 --> 00:39:01,599 venus doesn't behave that way 1001 00:39:05,430 --> 00:39:03,280 you know we're not going to make you 1002 00:39:08,230 --> 00:39:05,440 feel like you don't know what you're 1003 00:39:10,630 --> 00:39:08,240 talking about and we're not going to do 1004 00:39:13,270 --> 00:39:10,640 we're not going to ridicule and ruin 1005 00:39:14,390 --> 00:39:13,280 people's lives anymore like it used to 1006 00:39:16,230 --> 00:39:14,400 happen 1007 00:39:17,670 --> 00:39:16,240 we want to get rid of the stigma and the 1008 00:39:19,910 --> 00:39:17,680 only way to do that 1009 00:39:21,990 --> 00:39:19,920 is to say to you 1010 00:39:23,670 --> 00:39:22,000 we're looking into it we thought at 1011 00:39:25,990 --> 00:39:23,680 first it might be 1012 00:39:28,230 --> 00:39:26,000 russia or china and some advanced 1013 00:39:30,470 --> 00:39:28,240 technology but maybe maybe we're not 1014 00:39:33,030 --> 00:39:30,480 going in that direction because the 1015 00:39:34,390 --> 00:39:33,040 the properties associated with the 1016 00:39:38,390 --> 00:39:34,400 phenomenon 1017 00:39:40,069 --> 00:39:38,400 the maneuverability the characteristics 1018 00:39:42,550 --> 00:39:40,079 are all the same things that were 1019 00:39:45,990 --> 00:39:42,560 described in 1947 1020 00:39:47,190 --> 00:39:46,000 in a memo by air force general nathan 1021 00:39:49,670 --> 00:39:47,200 twining 1022 00:39:51,990 --> 00:39:49,680 to the air material command 1023 00:39:54,390 --> 00:39:52,000 in in fact that was back then they 1024 00:39:57,190 --> 00:39:54,400 weren't even calling them ufos or flying 1025 00:39:59,910 --> 00:39:57,200 saucers they were known as flying discs 1026 00:40:02,950 --> 00:39:59,920 right and and in that that that memo 1027 00:40:06,069 --> 00:40:02,960 begins with the phenomenon reported is 1028 00:40:09,430 --> 00:40:06,079 something real it's not imaginary it's 1029 00:40:11,270 --> 00:40:09,440 not it's not made up it it has objects 1030 00:40:13,910 --> 00:40:11,280 that approximate the size and 1031 00:40:15,910 --> 00:40:13,920 characteristics of man-made aircraft 1032 00:40:17,510 --> 00:40:15,920 that have incredible maneuverability 1033 00:40:19,190 --> 00:40:17,520 blah blah blah especially when 1034 00:40:22,589 --> 00:40:19,200 approached by 1035 00:40:25,990 --> 00:40:22,599 a friendly aircraft they're very evasive 1036 00:40:27,750 --> 00:40:26,000 1947 i love to remind people this was a 1037 00:40:31,270 --> 00:40:27,760 real document 1038 00:40:34,069 --> 00:40:31,280 in 1947 75 years ago 1039 00:40:36,790 --> 00:40:34,079 they the military was talking behind the 1040 00:40:40,069 --> 00:40:36,800 scenes about the things that are still 1041 00:40:42,870 --> 00:40:40,079 being encountered by the military what 1042 00:40:44,950 --> 00:40:42,880 is wrong with this picture 1043 00:40:47,109 --> 00:40:44,960 that's right i mean 1044 00:40:47,910 --> 00:40:47,119 this this long ago 1045 00:40:50,150 --> 00:40:47,920 yeah 1046 00:40:53,030 --> 00:40:50,160 and in the military talking about it and 1047 00:40:53,910 --> 00:40:53,040 yeah a lot of a lot of people have said 1048 00:40:56,309 --> 00:40:53,920 you know 1049 00:40:58,309 --> 00:40:56,319 along the lines of the more things 1050 00:41:01,750 --> 00:40:58,319 change the more they they stay the same 1051 00:41:04,550 --> 00:41:01,760 type oh yeah no yeah i'm gonna pull up 1052 00:41:06,790 --> 00:41:04,560 that the twining member but but um i 1053 00:41:08,390 --> 00:41:06,800 have it here i just have to convert it 1054 00:41:13,829 --> 00:41:08,400 um 1055 00:41:16,069 --> 00:41:13,839 uh are you going are you going to be 1056 00:41:18,710 --> 00:41:16,079 able to offer that yes 1057 00:41:19,910 --> 00:41:18,720 so people can actually listen to it and 1058 00:41:23,030 --> 00:41:19,920 i do have that other clip i'm going to 1059 00:41:26,069 --> 00:41:23,040 play in just a minute okay uh my plan is 1060 00:41:28,630 --> 00:41:26,079 that um because it's still 1061 00:41:30,790 --> 00:41:28,640 relevant everything that's on this album 1062 00:41:33,270 --> 00:41:30,800 all the things that the people mentioned 1063 00:41:34,870 --> 00:41:33,280 talked about it's all relevant all these 1064 00:41:36,230 --> 00:41:34,880 years later and a lot of people have 1065 00:41:39,190 --> 00:41:36,240 been asking me 1066 00:41:42,550 --> 00:41:39,200 um if i'll ever re-release it yes i'm 1067 00:41:44,790 --> 00:41:42,560 going to soon re-release it as like an 1068 00:41:47,990 --> 00:41:44,800 anniversary presentation 1069 00:41:50,950 --> 00:41:48,000 and and what i will do martin is as soon 1070 00:41:53,910 --> 00:41:50,960 as i'm ready to go with that i will let 1071 00:41:54,790 --> 00:41:53,920 you be one of the first people 1072 00:41:56,390 --> 00:41:54,800 um 1073 00:41:58,710 --> 00:41:56,400 that that 1074 00:42:00,630 --> 00:41:58,720 will offer it to you to offer it to your 1075 00:42:03,190 --> 00:42:00,640 your listeners and then we'll put it out 1076 00:42:05,190 --> 00:42:03,200 there we'll post all kinds of notices 1077 00:42:06,870 --> 00:42:05,200 about it we'll do it through the onix 1078 00:42:09,109 --> 00:42:06,880 network that i'm on but 1079 00:42:11,670 --> 00:42:09,119 once i make the decision to do this i 1080 00:42:13,829 --> 00:42:11,680 really want people to hear this because 1081 00:42:16,630 --> 00:42:13,839 every time i hear it and god knows how 1082 00:42:19,270 --> 00:42:16,640 many times i've heard it now over the 1083 00:42:21,670 --> 00:42:19,280 last you know five decades i keep 1084 00:42:24,150 --> 00:42:21,680 thinking my god this is still 1085 00:42:25,589 --> 00:42:24,160 this is still relevant now 1086 00:42:28,630 --> 00:42:25,599 you obviously were right there when 1087 00:42:30,470 --> 00:42:28,640 these people were talking right oh yeah 1088 00:42:33,430 --> 00:42:30,480 there's some icons here jay allen 1089 00:42:36,150 --> 00:42:33,440 heineck of course who you knew oh um who 1090 00:42:38,069 --> 00:42:36,160 you had you know a friendship with um 1091 00:42:39,670 --> 00:42:38,079 but you know gordon cooper i think he 1092 00:42:42,309 --> 00:42:39,680 was an amazing guy 1093 00:42:44,230 --> 00:42:42,319 but he was wonderful and uh several 1094 00:42:46,630 --> 00:42:44,240 other people and i'm going to play your 1095 00:42:48,790 --> 00:42:46,640 your side too this is a shorter clip 1096 00:42:50,550 --> 00:42:48,800 this is only about four minutes on this 1097 00:42:53,030 --> 00:42:50,560 one right here here we go 1098 00:42:55,349 --> 00:42:53,040 congressman j edward rausch the people 1099 00:42:57,430 --> 00:42:55,359 should be told i think there's nothing 1100 00:42:59,829 --> 00:42:57,440 which is more frightening than to be 1101 00:43:02,309 --> 00:42:59,839 confronted with something that is new 1102 00:43:04,230 --> 00:43:02,319 particularly in this area and through 1103 00:43:07,270 --> 00:43:04,240 knowledge we can perhaps relieve the 1104 00:43:10,550 --> 00:43:07,280 fears of a lot of people i want to know 1105 00:43:13,190 --> 00:43:10,560 i should know i deserve to know and this 1106 00:43:15,910 --> 00:43:13,200 curiosity which i have and which is 1107 00:43:18,390 --> 00:43:15,920 sweated by the various sightings is such 1108 00:43:19,910 --> 00:43:18,400 that i want to pursue it just as i think 1109 00:43:22,150 --> 00:43:19,920 the great majority of the american 1110 00:43:23,990 --> 00:43:22,160 people would like to pursue the question 1111 00:43:27,270 --> 00:43:24,000 in order to come to the place where they 1112 00:43:29,030 --> 00:43:27,280 have an answer major donald kehoe 1113 00:43:31,589 --> 00:43:29,040 this thing is building up rapidly you 1114 00:43:33,990 --> 00:43:31,599 have publicity constantly almost every 1115 00:43:36,470 --> 00:43:34,000 day there's something on tv or there's a 1116 00:43:39,109 --> 00:43:36,480 signing report there should be a plan an 1117 00:43:41,109 --> 00:43:39,119 operation a gradual teaching of the 1118 00:43:42,710 --> 00:43:41,119 public what these things are 1119 00:43:45,109 --> 00:43:42,720 building on up to the more serious 1120 00:43:46,710 --> 00:43:45,119 aspects but em emphasizing that there is 1121 00:43:48,550 --> 00:43:46,720 no proof of any danger that's the way it 1122 00:43:51,430 --> 00:43:48,560 should have been done long ago 1123 00:43:53,349 --> 00:43:51,440 astronaut gordon cooper i think people 1124 00:43:55,510 --> 00:43:53,359 are prepared for it if it were done in 1125 00:43:56,950 --> 00:43:55,520 the right manner but i think likewise 1126 00:43:58,950 --> 00:43:56,960 the same way that a lot of people don't 1127 00:44:01,670 --> 00:43:58,960 believe anything about ufos because of 1128 00:44:03,750 --> 00:44:01,680 some of the totally absurd treatises 1129 00:44:06,069 --> 00:44:03,760 that have come out on them everyone's 1130 00:44:07,670 --> 00:44:06,079 afraid of the unknown but the more they 1131 00:44:09,910 --> 00:44:07,680 know about them the more that we have 1132 00:44:11,270 --> 00:44:09,920 the likelihood of somebody treating some 1133 00:44:13,270 --> 00:44:11,280 of these with a little friendlier 1134 00:44:14,870 --> 00:44:13,280 fashion and perhaps less frightened 1135 00:44:16,470 --> 00:44:14,880 fashion and maybe we can begin to find 1136 00:44:18,790 --> 00:44:16,480 out more about them 1137 00:44:21,270 --> 00:44:18,800 astronaut jim mcdivitt there are an 1138 00:44:23,589 --> 00:44:21,280 awful lot of stars in our universe and 1139 00:44:25,349 --> 00:44:23,599 our star our sun has a lot of planets 1140 00:44:27,109 --> 00:44:25,359 around it and it would seem highly 1141 00:44:28,710 --> 00:44:27,119 egotistical i think that if we thought 1142 00:44:31,430 --> 00:44:28,720 that we were the only planet in the 1143 00:44:33,670 --> 00:44:31,440 entire universe that had life on it and 1144 00:44:35,270 --> 00:44:33,680 i can't imagine myself that there aren't 1145 00:44:37,190 --> 00:44:35,280 environments throughout that entire 1146 00:44:38,069 --> 00:44:37,200 universe that are in some way similar to 1147 00:44:39,750 --> 00:44:38,079 ours 1148 00:44:42,150 --> 00:44:39,760 this is betty hill 1149 00:44:44,470 --> 00:44:42,160 knowledge belongs to everyone 1150 00:44:47,829 --> 00:44:44,480 i don't think anyone has the right to 1151 00:44:49,589 --> 00:44:47,839 censor or deny or prevent anyone from 1152 00:44:51,750 --> 00:44:49,599 learning i think the people have the 1153 00:44:53,510 --> 00:44:51,760 right to know because ufos is 1154 00:44:55,750 --> 00:44:53,520 everybody's business 1155 00:44:57,990 --> 00:44:55,760 dr j alan heineck 1156 00:45:01,030 --> 00:44:58,000 the large would depend on how the news 1157 00:45:02,950 --> 00:45:01,040 was broken to us what is the whole point 1158 00:45:05,109 --> 00:45:02,960 if something is so 1159 00:45:07,460 --> 00:45:05,119 good heavens we should be mature enough 1160 00:45:11,910 --> 00:45:07,470 to know what the situation is 1161 00:45:16,470 --> 00:45:13,990 we're just now beginning to explore 1162 00:45:18,470 --> 00:45:16,480 beyond our own planet 1163 00:45:20,309 --> 00:45:18,480 it's not inconceivable that other 1164 00:45:22,630 --> 00:45:20,319 civilizations could have already begun 1165 00:45:25,990 --> 00:45:22,640 their exploration of other planetary 1166 00:45:28,390 --> 00:45:26,000 systems including our own solar system 1167 00:45:30,390 --> 00:45:28,400 it is after all one of the objectives of 1168 00:45:32,630 --> 00:45:30,400 our space program 1169 00:45:34,150 --> 00:45:32,640 to seek out and study other forms of 1170 00:45:35,829 --> 00:45:34,160 life 1171 00:45:37,190 --> 00:45:35,839 i urge you to keep an open mind about 1172 00:45:39,430 --> 00:45:37,200 ufos 1173 00:45:41,349 --> 00:45:39,440 and the probability of the existence of 1174 00:45:43,030 --> 00:45:41,359 other intelligent life throughout the 1175 00:45:44,950 --> 00:45:43,040 universe 1176 00:45:46,710 --> 00:45:44,960 because it is there 1177 00:45:49,190 --> 00:45:46,720 think about that the next time you gaze 1178 00:45:51,510 --> 00:45:49,200 up at the stars on a clear night 1179 00:45:54,630 --> 00:45:51,520 gaze long and hard 1180 00:45:56,950 --> 00:45:54,640 the credibility factor of ufos 1181 00:46:11,430 --> 00:45:56,960 needn't stretch the imagination 1182 00:46:14,710 --> 00:46:13,190 i'll get to it 1183 00:46:17,349 --> 00:46:14,720 oh that was great 1184 00:46:19,589 --> 00:46:17,359 you know with every person who i 1185 00:46:21,109 --> 00:46:19,599 interviewed on that album 1186 00:46:23,109 --> 00:46:21,119 i was sitting there on the other side of 1187 00:46:25,430 --> 00:46:23,119 the microphone and 1188 00:46:27,190 --> 00:46:25,440 while they were answering my questions 1189 00:46:30,710 --> 00:46:27,200 i kept thinking to myself god please 1190 00:46:32,630 --> 00:46:30,720 somebody pinch me this is great stuff 1191 00:46:33,910 --> 00:46:32,640 i'm i'm getting nobody's going to 1192 00:46:36,230 --> 00:46:33,920 believe this 1193 00:46:37,109 --> 00:46:36,240 and and and here's another thing 1194 00:46:38,470 --> 00:46:37,119 that 1195 00:46:39,829 --> 00:46:38,480 people don't realize 1196 00:46:40,870 --> 00:46:39,839 you know when you do an interview with 1197 00:46:42,790 --> 00:46:40,880 someone i mean you're not just going to 1198 00:46:44,230 --> 00:46:42,800 meet them for 10 or 15 minutes you're 1199 00:46:46,150 --> 00:46:44,240 going to sit with them for a while spend 1200 00:46:48,870 --> 00:46:46,160 a day with them and get a lot of 1201 00:46:51,190 --> 00:46:48,880 really good information in an interview 1202 00:46:53,270 --> 00:46:51,200 i can't block them and and and like you 1203 00:46:55,589 --> 00:46:53,280 you do you edit down 1204 00:46:59,990 --> 00:46:55,599 to the most interesting relevant stuff 1205 00:47:01,349 --> 00:47:00,000 to put on on a 40 45 minute album 1206 00:47:03,510 --> 00:47:01,359 and i still have all the original 1207 00:47:06,069 --> 00:47:03,520 interview tapes that have stuff on them 1208 00:47:07,910 --> 00:47:06,079 that no one no one has ever heard i 1209 00:47:11,270 --> 00:47:07,920 haven't even listened to these 1210 00:47:12,230 --> 00:47:11,280 recordings in almost 50 years 1211 00:47:14,550 --> 00:47:12,240 so 1212 00:47:16,470 --> 00:47:14,560 there's a lot of stuff there that is 1213 00:47:18,069 --> 00:47:16,480 just sitting there waiting to be heard 1214 00:47:19,990 --> 00:47:18,079 and i that's 1215 00:47:23,430 --> 00:47:20,000 one of the reasons that it's almost 1216 00:47:25,829 --> 00:47:23,440 forcing me to to re-release this to give 1217 00:47:28,870 --> 00:47:25,839 i guess a new generation of people uh 1218 00:47:31,510 --> 00:47:28,880 maybe another piece of credibility 1219 00:47:33,750 --> 00:47:31,520 in the ufo field that maybe wasn't there 1220 00:47:34,870 --> 00:47:33,760 so i'm proud of it have always been 1221 00:47:36,470 --> 00:47:34,880 proud of this 1222 00:47:38,470 --> 00:47:36,480 and if it wasn't 1223 00:47:40,069 --> 00:47:38,480 for this record

and and he he was very good at 1431 00:56:07,430 --> 00:56:05,599 you know kind of making me feel like a 1432 00:56:09,670 --> 00:56:07,440 fool for asking some of the questions i 1433 00:56:12,549 --> 00:56:09,680 did but you know now he's part of the 1434 00:56:14,630 --> 00:56:12,559 galileo project with avi loeb 1435 00:56:17,030 --> 00:56:14,640 so i wonder how that's all going well 1436 00:56:18,710 --> 00:56:17,040 you know i don't know who told me this 1437 00:56:20,870 --> 00:56:18,720 but several months ago 1438 00:56:22,950 --> 00:56:20,880 when i first read 1439 00:56:25,670 --> 00:56:22,960 that his name was associated with the 1440 00:56:28,710 --> 00:56:25,680 galileo project someone else told me 1441 00:56:31,430 --> 00:56:28,720 that he's not actually really a part of 1442 00:56:34,069 --> 00:56:31,440 it i don't know that he was even 1443 00:56:36,710 --> 00:56:34,079 invited by 1444 00:56:38,230 --> 00:56:36,720 by dr avi loeb i mean it could be wrong 1445 00:56:41,349 --> 00:56:38,240 but 1446 00:56:44,630 --> 00:56:41,359 seth shostak's overall 1447 00:56:46,549 --> 00:56:44,640 opinion about ufos is that until like 1448 00:56:49,829 --> 00:56:46,559 until the smithsonian has pieces and 1449 00:56:52,230 --> 00:56:49,839 parts from a ufo or flying saucer um 1450 00:56:53,910 --> 00:56:52,240 then there's no evidence at all that we 1451 00:56:54,789 --> 00:56:53,920 should even consider 1452 00:56:56,630 --> 00:56:54,799 that 1453 00:56:58,230 --> 00:56:56,640 something from far away 1454 00:56:59,750 --> 00:56:58,240 is visiting us 1455 00:57:02,230 --> 00:56:59,760 they they just won't consider that and 1456 00:57:05,430 --> 00:57:02,240 avi loeb's opinion is 1457 00:57:07,190 --> 00:57:05,440 we think that something has come past us 1458 00:57:10,549 --> 00:57:07,200 and that there might be other things 1459 00:57:12,710 --> 00:57:10,559 that indicate that we are not alone 1460 00:57:14,630 --> 00:57:12,720 and i wouldn't think that they would 1461 00:57:16,950 --> 00:57:14,640 want anyone 1462 00:57:17,910 --> 00:57:16,960 in that study the galileo study or the 1463 00:57:19,510 --> 00:57:17,920 project 1464 00:57:20,710 --> 00:57:19,520 to to be 1465 00:57:22,549 --> 00:57:20,720 tossing in 1466 00:57:24,230 --> 00:57:22,559 sentences like no 1467 00:57:26,630 --> 00:57:24,240 there is there is no evidence that 1468 00:57:27,990 --> 00:57:26,640 there's any life out there all that 1469 00:57:30,309 --> 00:57:28,000 we're doing is just putting all of our 1470 00:57:32,549 --> 00:57:30,319 money in our funding into listening with 1471 00:57:35,030 --> 00:57:32,559 our little radio telescopes and find a 1472 00:57:37,750 --> 00:57:35,040 signal and and then you say to them okay 1473 00:57:40,549 --> 00:57:37,760 what if we do get a signal from 1474 00:57:43,030 --> 00:57:40,559 somewhere and it's maybe like a 1475 00:57:45,349 --> 00:57:43,040 two or three words like hi 1476 00:57:47,829 --> 00:57:45,359 and we can actually get that signal 1477 00:57:50,069 --> 00:57:47,839 and we can figure out a way of replying 1478 00:57:52,950 --> 00:57:50,079 like hi back to you 1479 00:57:54,710 --> 00:57:52,960 how long would that exchange take how 1480 00:57:57,349 --> 00:57:54,720 many more decades 1481 00:57:59,430 --> 00:57:57,359 would it be to get to the third exchange 1482 00:58:01,910 --> 00:57:59,440 and there'll be none of us left on earth 1483 00:58:04,069 --> 00:58:01,920 anyway who are talking about this now 1484 00:58:07,270 --> 00:58:04,079 and it's like really 1485 00:58:09,750 --> 00:58:07,280 and and i once did a project with dr 1486 00:58:11,990 --> 00:58:09,760 frank drake who created the city 1487 00:58:13,670 --> 00:58:12,000 institute we we worked on a radio show 1488 00:58:16,470 --> 00:58:13,680 together and we were alone in a 1489 00:58:19,589 --> 00:58:16,480 conference room and i said to him frank 1490 00:58:20,789 --> 00:58:19,599 um i i know how the the seti institute 1491 00:58:24,390 --> 00:58:20,799 normally 1492 00:58:26,470 --> 00:58:24,400 likes to avoid talking about ufos 1493 00:58:29,829 --> 00:58:26,480 and how do you feel about it and he said 1494 00:58:31,109 --> 00:58:29,839 to me well i i haven't really been shown 1495 00:58:33,829 --> 00:58:31,119 anything 1496 00:58:36,630 --> 00:58:33,839 by officials that would make me consider 1497 00:58:37,670 --> 00:58:36,640 that something is here and i said but 1498 00:58:41,430 --> 00:58:37,680 frank 1499 00:58:43,270 --> 00:58:41,440 they're landing in people's backyards 1500 00:58:45,829 --> 00:58:43,280 and does that mean that everyone who 1501 00:58:47,910 --> 00:58:45,839 makes these kinds of reports 1502 00:58:48,870 --> 00:58:47,920 are lying that they're out of their 1503 00:58:51,510 --> 00:58:48,880 minds 1504 00:58:53,910 --> 00:58:51,520 they're they're crazy 1505 00:58:57,510 --> 00:58:53,920 they're they're just totally out of out 1506 00:58:59,670 --> 00:58:57,520 of reality we can't continue to have 1507 00:59:03,589 --> 00:58:59,680 that attitude about people there has to 1508 00:59:05,109 --> 00:59:03,599 be a new attitude that requires science 1509 00:59:07,030 --> 00:59:05,119 looking at this 1510 00:59:08,150 --> 00:59:07,040 there's too much going on 1511 00:59:09,990 --> 00:59:08,160 uh 1512 00:59:12,150 --> 00:59:10,000 and i even reminded him like i do all 1513 00:59:15,190 --> 00:59:12,160 the time frank have you ever heard of 1514 00:59:16,390 --> 00:59:15,200 general nathan twining 1947 memo i mean 1515 00:59:19,349 --> 00:59:16,400 come on 1516 00:59:21,109 --> 00:59:19,359 this is nothing new 1517 00:59:22,789 --> 00:59:21,119 i'm glad you asked those questions 1518 00:59:24,950 --> 00:59:22,799 anyway you know and 1519 00:59:26,870 --> 00:59:24,960 um you know i've i've talked to i talked 1520 00:59:28,710 --> 00:59:26,880 to stan freeman many times about seti 1521 00:59:31,190 --> 00:59:28,720 you know and he had that i forgot what 1522 00:59:33,030 --> 00:59:31,200 he called the uh silly 1523 00:59:36,309 --> 00:59:33,040 uh i i forget what he he had a great 1524 00:59:38,710 --> 00:59:36,319 phrase for it but but anyway um you know 1525 00:59:41,349 --> 00:59:38,720 it's it's better than doing nothing 1526 00:59:44,549 --> 00:59:41,359 them yeah at least looking but i mean 1527 00:59:48,150 --> 00:59:46,470 find a radio signal 1528 00:59:50,549 --> 00:59:48,160 we have no idea how they would 1529 00:59:52,630 --> 00:59:50,559 communicate that's right i have no idea 1530 00:59:55,589 --> 00:59:52,640 when and how 1531 00:59:57,670 --> 00:59:55,599 um different society levels can 1532 01:00:00,470 --> 00:59:57,680 pass by each other 1533 01:00:01,670 --> 01:00:00,480 you know for technology or what type of 1534 01:00:03,109 --> 01:00:01,680 technology 1535 01:00:04,950 --> 01:00:03,119 you know are they 1536 01:00:06,150 --> 01:00:04,960 so far advanced that they're using 1537 01:00:08,789 --> 01:00:06,160 something that 1538 01:00:10,870 --> 01:00:08,799 radio signals are passe for for 1539 01:00:13,270 --> 01:00:10,880 thousands of years who knows 1540 01:00:15,109 --> 01:00:13,280 but um if they find something i think 1541 01:00:16,710 --> 01:00:15,119 that james webb has more of a chance in 1542 01:00:19,030 --> 01:00:16,720 finding something then 1543 01:00:20,150 --> 01:00:19,040 um with the atmospheres they they will 1544 01:00:23,190 --> 01:00:20,160 be able to 1545 01:00:25,270 --> 01:00:23,200 detect uh you know pollutions and 1546 01:00:27,589 --> 01:00:25,280 atmospheres i believe by colors or 1547 01:00:29,670 --> 01:00:27,599 something yeah about about a week ago 1548 01:00:32,230 --> 01:00:29,680 one of the one of the first images that 1549 01:00:34,230 --> 01:00:32,240 came back from the web um 1550 01:00:37,270 --> 01:00:34,240 was an image that uh they said they were 1551 01:00:42,069 --> 01:00:37,280 definitely now able to to to know one of 1552 01:00:43,510 --> 01:00:42,079 the large exoplanets around a far sun 1553 01:00:45,829 --> 01:00:43,520 it now shows 1554 01:00:47,109 --> 01:00:45,839 definitely that it has water in its 1555 01:00:49,670 --> 01:00:47,119 atmosphere 1556 01:00:52,789 --> 01:00:49,680 and wow and we didn't know that before 1557 01:00:56,150 --> 01:00:52,799 before james webb got got turned on 1558 01:00:58,630 --> 01:00:56,160 so now it's not to say that this planet 1559 01:01:00,069 --> 01:00:58,640 has life on it or what kind of life it 1560 01:01:03,349 --> 01:01:00,079 is but the fact that 1561 01:01:05,190 --> 01:01:03,359 we're that much closer to even knowing 1562 01:01:06,630 --> 01:01:05,200 but again then you have to 1563 01:01:09,270 --> 01:01:06,640 you have to ask the next question okay 1564 01:01:12,309 --> 01:01:09,280 well so let's say we find whatever maybe 1565 01:01:13,829 --> 01:01:12,319 is the closest exoplanet to earth 1566 01:01:16,950 --> 01:01:13,839 that maybe has 1567 01:01:18,549 --> 01:01:16,960 possible life on it so what 1568 01:01:20,470 --> 01:01:18,559 is my my question 1569 01:01:22,630 --> 01:01:20,480 how do we get there 1570 01:01:27,190 --> 01:01:22,640 we we currently 1571 01:01:29,109 --> 01:01:27,200 don't have the technology the 1572 01:01:33,270 --> 01:01:29,119 the star trek or the star wars 1573 01:01:36,069 --> 01:01:33,280 technology warp speed hyperdrive to get 1574 01:01:38,789 --> 01:01:36,079 us there in a couple of minutes we we 1575 01:01:40,950 --> 01:01:38,799 don't have that but it's like 1576 01:01:42,950 --> 01:01:40,960 every time stanton friedman used to do a 1577 01:01:45,190 --> 01:01:42,960 lecture he would always say to his 1578 01:01:46,309 --> 01:01:45,200 audiences he would say 1579 01:01:49,349 --> 01:01:46,319 all of the 1580 01:01:52,309 --> 01:01:49,359 skeptics the naysayers the debunkers 1581 01:01:54,710 --> 01:01:52,319 they all live by the same mantra and 1582 01:01:56,870 --> 01:01:54,720 that mantra is 1583 01:01:59,109 --> 01:01:56,880 don't bother me with the facts yeah my 1584 01:02:01,670 --> 01:01:59,119 mind is already made up 1585 01:02:03,430 --> 01:02:01,680 or he or he would say another one you 1586 01:02:09,349 --> 01:02:03,440 say 1587 01:02:11,430 --> 01:02:09,359 um 1588 01:02:13,430 --> 01:02:11,440 is impossible what they're really saying 1589 01:02:15,190 --> 01:02:13,440 is i don't know how to do that 1590 01:02:16,710 --> 01:02:15,200 so so if i don't know how to do it that 1591 01:02:17,750 --> 01:02:16,720 means nobody else knows how to do it 1592 01:02:19,029 --> 01:02:17,760 either 1593 01:02:21,589 --> 01:02:19,039 and and 1594 01:02:24,150 --> 01:02:21,599 how long have we been 1595 01:02:26,150 --> 01:02:24,160 with technology that can fly in the 1596 01:02:28,230 --> 01:02:26,160 skies i mean we're talking 1597 01:02:30,950 --> 01:02:28,240 wright brothers or pre-write brothers 1598 01:02:33,510 --> 01:02:30,960 with with aircraft but has it been more 1599 01:02:38,230 --> 01:02:33,520 than 200 years that we've had 1600 01:02:41,190 --> 01:02:38,240 flying ability technology so let's say 1601 01:02:44,309 --> 01:02:41,200 any other planet somewhere out there 1602 01:02:46,950 --> 01:02:44,319 that may be oh let's give them 500 years 1603 01:02:48,950 --> 01:02:46,960 ahead of us well let's let's be let's be 1604 01:02:51,109 --> 01:02:48,960 nice give him a thousand years ahead of 1605 01:02:52,789 --> 01:02:51,119 us do you think someone who's a thousand 1606 01:02:55,910 --> 01:02:52,799 years ahead of us now 1607 01:02:57,829 --> 01:02:55,920 has the ability to do some hopscotching 1608 01:02:59,829 --> 01:02:57,839 through wormholes or 1609 01:03:01,270 --> 01:02:59,839 better yet 1610 01:03:03,990 --> 01:03:01,280 time travel 1611 01:03:06,069 --> 01:03:04,000 the whole michael masters idea of 1612 01:03:07,029 --> 01:03:06,079 many ufos could be 1613 01:03:08,789 --> 01:03:07,039 us 1614 01:03:11,349 --> 01:03:08,799 our descendants 1615 01:03:14,470 --> 01:03:11,359 using time travel technology in the 1616 01:03:17,270 --> 01:03:14,480 distant future to come back in time to 1617 01:03:18,789 --> 01:03:17,280 study their own past 1618 01:03:21,190 --> 01:03:18,799 gotta love that 1619 01:03:23,829 --> 01:03:21,200 yeah yeah i i do love that i think that 1620 01:03:26,150 --> 01:03:23,839 is a fantastic thought 1621 01:03:29,589 --> 01:03:26,160 um so i was i actually got to see the 1622 01:03:31,910 --> 01:03:29,599 james webb uh telescope as it was being 1623 01:03:33,510 --> 01:03:31,920 built how cool and yeah i took a bunch 1624 01:03:35,589 --> 01:03:33,520 of pictures just looking for them now i 1625 01:03:37,430 --> 01:03:35,599 have them somewhere ah and um you know 1626 01:03:39,670 --> 01:03:37,440 people are all dressed up in their like 1627 01:03:41,349 --> 01:03:39,680 hazmat white suits and yeah they were 1628 01:03:43,029 --> 01:03:41,359 very very careful this time because you 1629 01:03:44,870 --> 01:03:43,039 know the hubble space 1630 01:03:47,430 --> 01:03:44,880 craft i mean the hubble telescope when 1631 01:03:49,430 --> 01:03:47,440 that went up it had two microns 1632 01:03:52,710 --> 01:03:49,440 were off in the mirror which caused 1633 01:03:54,710 --> 01:03:52,720 blurriness yeah now the web had a like a 1634 01:03:57,430 --> 01:03:54,720 folding type of mirror 1635 01:03:59,349 --> 01:03:57,440 which is really amazing that everything 1636 01:04:01,990 --> 01:03:59,359 worked perfectly because they only had 1637 01:04:04,230 --> 01:04:02,000 one shot at a million miles away that's 1638 01:04:07,029 --> 01:04:04,240 right no way we could ever get to it to 1639 01:04:09,430 --> 01:04:07,039 to work on it exactly so uh yeah we had 1640 01:04:11,349 --> 01:04:09,440 the one shot and can you imagine with 1641 01:04:14,230 --> 01:04:11,359 the billions of dollars i think it went 1642 01:04:16,390 --> 01:04:14,240 way over budget uh they kept having to 1643 01:04:18,789 --> 01:04:16,400 raise the stakes on that to make sure 1644 01:04:21,829 --> 01:04:18,799 that it it's at a very cold temperature 1645 01:04:23,190 --> 01:04:21,839 something like 300 below zero fahrenheit 1646 01:04:25,190 --> 01:04:23,200 and uh 1647 01:04:27,750 --> 01:04:25,200 it has to re it has to maintain that 1648 01:04:30,549 --> 01:04:27,760 cold temperature in order to work 1649 01:04:31,910 --> 01:04:30,559 properly so there's a shield for the sun 1650 01:04:33,349 --> 01:04:31,920 there's all these different things that 1651 01:04:34,870 --> 01:04:33,359 are involved it's really amazing 1652 01:04:37,270 --> 01:04:34,880 technology 1653 01:04:38,870 --> 01:04:37,280 uh i know and the i think i read an 1654 01:04:41,109 --> 01:04:38,880 early report that once it got out there 1655 01:04:43,109 --> 01:04:41,119 and it unfolded and was getting going 1656 01:04:44,630 --> 01:04:43,119 through all of its early testing 1657 01:04:47,430 --> 01:04:44,640 uh that 1658 01:04:50,870 --> 01:04:47,440 there were a few instances where micro 1659 01:04:51,589 --> 01:04:50,880 micro micro meteoroids had hit it you 1660 01:04:53,910 --> 01:04:51,599 know 1661 01:04:56,549 --> 01:04:53,920 yep uh but didn't they're going like 40 1662 01:04:59,109 --> 01:04:56,559 somewhat thousand miles an hour yeah you 1663 01:05:01,349 --> 01:04:59,119 know and uh yeah a bullet can travels at 1664 01:05:03,109 --> 01:05:01,359 a fraction of that yeah 1665 01:05:04,789 --> 01:05:03,119 it's like so the amount of money and the 1666 01:05:06,549 --> 01:05:04,799 amount of risks 1667 01:05:09,190 --> 01:05:06,559 but so far 1668 01:05:11,750 --> 01:05:09,200 um the rewards have been incredible so 1669 01:05:14,230 --> 01:05:11,760 far i hope we get the 20 years plus out 1670 01:05:16,710 --> 01:05:14,240 of it that would be just amazing 1671 01:05:18,549 --> 01:05:16,720 someone in chat that has asked 1672 01:05:19,990 --> 01:05:18,559 over and over again i i'm not familiar 1673 01:05:23,190 --> 01:05:20,000 with this person maybe it's the first 1674 01:05:25,510 --> 01:05:23,200 time he's visiting uh welcome anyway ray 1675 01:05:26,630 --> 01:05:25,520 nash uh he wants to know why there 1676 01:05:29,829 --> 01:05:26,640 aren't any 1677 01:05:33,430 --> 01:05:29,839 uh interviews with max brazil uh mac 1678 01:05:34,549 --> 01:05:33,440 brazil is it mac brazil from uh

01:05:45,510 --> 01:05:44,480 i have heard audio interviews that he 1683 01:05:46,390 --> 01:05:45,520 had done 1684 01:05:49,109 --> 01:05:46,400 um 1685 01:05:51,589 --> 01:05:49,119 possibly with like one of the local 1686 01:05:55,029 --> 01:05:51,599 roswell radio stations but i believe 1687 01:05:57,829 --> 01:05:55,039 that he did them 1688 01:06:00,630 --> 01:05:57,839 under under the watchful eye 1689 01:06:03,109 --> 01:06:00,640 of whoever was in charge of keeping 1690 01:06:05,910 --> 01:06:03,119 things quiet on what it was that crashed 1691 01:06:07,910 --> 01:06:05,920 on the ranch there in roswell because 1692 01:06:09,750 --> 01:06:07,920 once once he went to the military and 1693 01:06:12,069 --> 01:06:09,760 you know started saying like this thing 1694 01:06:13,750 --> 01:06:12,079 landed and i've got these pieces and and 1695 01:06:15,029 --> 01:06:13,760 i'm going to go to the to the 1696 01:06:16,789 --> 01:06:15,039 authorities or i'm going to go to the 1697 01:06:19,109 --> 01:06:16,799 press and talk about it well then you 1698 01:06:21,910 --> 01:06:19,119 know the authorities as they did the day 1699 01:06:24,309 --> 01:06:21,920 after the initial famous roswell 1700 01:06:26,470 --> 01:06:24,319 uh daily record report you know military 1701 01:06:28,150 --> 01:06:26,480 captures ufo or flying saucer and the 1702 01:06:30,549 --> 01:06:28,160

01:13:51,910 --> 01:13:49,199 was the sound of animals that were very 1900 01:13:53,750 --> 01:13:51,920 nervous about something you could hear 1901 01:13:55,590 --> 01:13:53,760 horses in the darkness you can hear dogs 1902 01:13:56,870 --> 01:13:55,600 barking there's something that was 1903 01:13:58,229 --> 01:13:56,880 bothering them 1904 01:14:00,630 --> 01:13:58,239 and there were no

--> 01:14:09,440 in front of us 1909 01:14:12,630 --> 01:14:11,679 there was a line of trees 1910 01:14:14,550 --> 01:14:12,640 and 1911 01:14:16,709 --> 01:14:14,560 from the left side 1912

01:14:25,990 --> 01:14:22,159 became a red light and then back to 1916 01:14:28,390 --> 01:14:26,000 white and back to red just very slowly 1917 01:14:29,350 --> 01:14:28,400 above the tops of the trees 1918 01:14:31,910 --> 01:14:29,360 moving 1919 01:14:33,910 --> 01:14:31,920 and then at one point it stopped 1920 01:14:37,910 --> 01:14:33,920 and started moving again 1921 01:14:42,870 --> 01:14:40,149 uh and we just stood there and and 1922 01:14:44,950 --> 01:14:42,880 watched it as it came across the field 1923 01:14:46,630 --> 01:14:44,960 getting closer and closer well that 1924 01:14:47,910 --> 01:14:46,640 that's that's actually 1925 01:14:49,350 --> 01:14:47,920 um 1926 01:14:51,189 --> 01:14:49,360 you can keep that one up there for now 1927 01:14:53,030 --> 01:14:51,199

what it looked like as it 1931 01:15:00,470 --> 01:14:58,560 got close to us 1932 01:15:02,070 --> 01:15:00,480 and it stopped 1933 01:15:05,270 --> 01:15:02,080 remember it was 1934 01:15:06,390 --> 01:15:05,280 it wasn't just daylight it was darker at 1935 01:15:09,110 --> 01:15:06,400 the time 1936 01:15:11,910 --> 01:15:09,120 it had a row of white lights up one side 1937 01:15:13,750 --> 01:15:11,920 underneath and red lights with a larger 1938 01:15:15,030 --> 01:15:13,760 light at the apex where the two sides 1939 01:15:16,790 --> 01:15:15,040 came together 1940 01:15:18,470 --> 01:15:16,800 and it just hovered there in the air 1941 01:15:20,070 --> 01:15:18,480 above us 1942 01:15:22,470 --> 01:15:20,080 and 1943 01:15:25,189 --> 01:15:22,480 it made no noise there was no

location 2046 01:18:58,149 --> 01:18:56,000 that got out of his car and flashed a 2047 01:19:00,790 --> 01:18:58,159 light at it or something yeah 2048 01:19:03,590 --> 01:19:00,800 we we kept finding other police officers 2049 01:19:05,430 --> 01:19:03,600 in different counties and uh we stopped 2050 01:19:07,270 --> 01:19:05,440 at one place and found two police 2051 01:19:09,110 --> 01:19:07,280 officers who were out of their car 2052 01:19:10,950 --> 01:19:09,120 and and they they knew that we were 2053 01:19:12,550 --> 01:19:10,960 coming because everybody was connected 2054 01:19:13,990 --> 01:19:12,560 by a police radio 2055 01:19:15,510 --> 01:19:14,000 and they said to me we saw this thing 2056 01:19:17,350 --> 01:19:15,520 coming down the road 2057 01:19:19,189 --> 01:19:17,360 in our direction and it got to a ride 2058 01:19:21,669 --> 01:19:19,199 above our car and without stopping 2059 01:19:24,229 --> 01:19:21,679 without stopping on a dime it made a 90 2060 01:19:25,030 --> 01:19:24,239 degree angle quick turn and went flying 2061 01:19:27,189 --> 01:19:25,040 off 2062 01:19:29,590 --> 01:19:27,199 and i've talked with people who said if 2063 01:19:30,310 --> 01:19:29,600 there was anything living inside this 2064 01:19:32,470 --> 01:19:30,320 thing 2065 01:19:34,390 --> 01:19:32,480 they could not have withstood 2066 01:19:37,189 --> 01:19:34,400 that kind of an immediate 2067 01:19:39,830 --> 01:19:37,199 change of direction but again see we're 2068 01:19:42,070 --> 01:19:39,840 talking this is what we think based on 2069 01:19:44,550 --> 01:19:42,080 our knowledge exactly of how we would 2070 01:19:46,950 --> 01:19:44,560 react in a technology that we don't know 2071 01:19:49,030 --> 01:19:46,960 anything about one thing i'd like to ask 2072 01:19:51,430 --> 01:19:49,040 you lee do you think there was 2073 01:19:53,430 --> 01:19:51,440 uh just because it's something i i i 2074 01:19:55,430 --> 01:19:53,440 hear now and then 2075 01:19:57,590 --> 01:19:55,440 and it's probably a kind of a weird 2076 01:20:01,270 --> 01:19:57,600 thing to say but do you feel there was 2077 01:20:02,390 --> 01:20:01,280 any time dilation of any kind no not not 2078 01:20:04,950 --> 01:20:02,400 that i 2079 01:20:06,790 --> 01:20:04,960 either know of or ever experienced i 2080 01:20:10,629 --> 01:20:06,800 don't think anyone else 2081 01:20:11,669 --> 01:20:10,639 did either i think 2082 01:20:14,149 --> 01:20:11,679 uh 2083 01:20:16,310 --> 01:20:14,159 the whole idea 2084 01:20:18,310 --> 01:20:16,320 of of what we experienced and it wasn't 2085 01:20:19,910 --> 01:20:18,320 just that night i was there maybe on the 2086 01:20:21,750 --> 01:20:19,920 third or fourth night 2087 01:20:23,430 --> 01:20:21,760 when this was happening 2088 01:20:25,189 --> 01:20:23,440 i i often like 2089 01:20:26,950 --> 01:20:25,199 people will often ask me why don't the 2090 01:20:28,629 --> 01:20:26,960 ufos just show themselves everywhere and 2091 01:20:30,709 --> 01:20:28,639 just you know appear over the cities 2092 01:20:33,350 --> 01:20:30,719 like in war of the worlds or 2093 01:20:34,470 --> 01:20:33,360 you know or or independence day or 2094 01:20:36,870 --> 01:20:34,480 whatever 2095 01:20:39,030 --> 01:20:36,880 and and and i keep saying to people 2096 01:20:39,910 --> 01:20:39,040 well they have been showing themselves a 2097 01:20:43,189 --> 01:20:39,920 lot 2098 01:20:46,070 --> 01:20:43,199 and and my response to them is 2099 01:20:48,149 --> 01:20:46,080 if the ufos didn't want to be seen 2100 01:20:50,310 --> 01:20:48,159 especially at night all they have to do 2101 01:20:53,750 --> 01:20:50,320 is turn their lights off 2102 01:20:56,229 --> 01:20:53,760 i mean you know and end of topic but 2103 01:20:58,310 --> 01:20:56,239 they want to be seen 2104 01:20:59,750 --> 01:20:58,320 they know they're being seen how could 2105 01:21:02,390 --> 01:20:59,760 they not 2106 01:21:04,629 --> 01:21:02,400 they they know what they're doing 2107 01:21:07,590 --> 01:21:04,639 and they've always known throughout 2108 01:21:10,550 --> 01:21:07,600 history they they're not trying to hide 2109 01:21:14,229 --> 01:21:10,560 from humans they know what they're doing 2110 01:21:16,390 --> 01:21:14,239 for whatever their reasons 2111 01:21:18,390 --> 01:21:16,400 i mean really yeah 2112 01:21:21,510 --> 01:21:18,400 i can't think of any other way to to 2113 01:21:23,110 --> 01:21:21,520 respond to that and so i think that 2114 01:21:24,629 --> 01:21:23,120 wherever they show up 2115 01:21:26,790 --> 01:21:24,639 you know they showed up they hovered 2116 01:21:29,350 --> 01:21:26,800 above us shot a beam of light down as if 2117 01:21:31,430 --> 01:21:29,360 as if to say when the beam went back up 2118 01:21:33,990 --> 01:21:31,440 and it turned and went away it was as if 2119 01:21:35,110 --> 01:21:34,000 it was saying to us yeah okay i'm done 2120 01:21:37,830 --> 01:21:35,120 with you guys i'm going to go screw 2121 01:21:40,470 --> 01:21:37,840 around with someone else now so we after 2122 01:21:44,149 --> 01:21:40,480 it went after it left i found 2123 01:21:47,350 --> 01:21:44,159 a police chief um sitting in his car 2124 01:21:48,870 --> 01:21:47,360 um beside the road and he knew i was 2125 01:21:50,550 --> 01:21:48,880 coming to ask him some questions so i 2126 01:21:52,310 --> 01:21:50,560 asked him i understand you had a little 2127 01:21:54,629 --> 01:21:52,320 excitement here 2128 01:21:56,790 --> 01:21:54,639 he said yeah i was sitting in the car 2129 01:21:59,350 --> 01:21:56,800 eating my sandwich and the whole inside 2130 01:22:01,110 --> 01:21:59,360 of my car was lit up with some 2131 01:22:03,350 --> 01:22:01,120 bright light 2132 01:22:04,629 --> 01:22:03,360 i said what did you do he said i i 2133 01:22:06,310 --> 01:22:04,639 looked out 2134 01:22:09,350 --> 01:22:06,320 looked up at the sky and there was this 2135 01:22:12,229 --> 01:22:09,360 thing parked in the sky right above my 2136 01:22:14,790 --> 01:22:12,239 car and made me think although no i was 2137 01:22:16,629 --> 01:22:14,800 going to say it made me think of 2138 01:22:18,390 --> 01:22:16,639 the the moment in close encounters of 2139 01:22:20,550 --> 01:22:18,400 the third kind when richard dreyfuss is 2140 01:22:22,830 --> 01:22:20,560 in his truck yeah and he does that but 2141 01:22:25,990 --> 01:22:22,840 then i realized no 2142 01:22:27,669 --> 01:22:26,000 1975 lumberton that was two years before 2143 01:22:30,550

this recently on 2161 01:23:11,350 --> 01:23:08,080 the show where 2162 01:23:12,709 --> 01:23:11,360 the person was doing like the flashing 2163 01:23:14,629 --> 01:23:12,719 and then 2164 01:23:16,149 --> 01:23:14,639 he thought all right now i'm thinking 2165 01:23:18,070 --> 01:23:16,159 i'm going to flash 2166 01:23:19,910 --> 01:23:18,080 and the thing reacted to it that's 2167 01:23:21,510 --> 01:23:19,920 reacted to him thinking about it that 2168 01:23:23,110 --> 01:23:21,520 you know when i say that's funny i don't 2169 01:23:25,910 --> 01:23:23,120 really mean it's

but now you 2173 01:23:37,270 --> 01:23:32,800 hear about 2174 01:23:39,350 --> 01:23:37,280 where a lot of the ufo phenomenon 2175 01:23:41,030 --> 01:23:39,360 is tied into 2176 01:23:43,750 --> 01:23:41,040 the paranormal 2177 01:23:45,189 --> 01:23:43,760 yeah yeah uh and things that people 2178 01:23:47,030 --> 01:23:45,199 describe 2179 01:23:50,149 --> 01:23:47,040 like that that involves thought 2180 01:23:51,510 --> 01:23:50,159 processes or consciousness 2181 01:23:53,430 --> 01:23:51,520 uh and 2182 01:23:56,470 --> 01:23:53,440 and more and more of these stories are 2183 01:23:58,550 --> 01:23:56,480 coming out that that says to me people 2184 01:24:01,430 --> 01:23:58,560 aren't just making this stuff up they're 2185 01:24:03,590 --> 01:24:01,440 really experiencing things 2186 01:24:06,229 --> 01:24:03,600 that have like nothing to do 2187 01:24:08,790 --> 01:24:06,239 with what they're seeing it has a whole 2188 01:24:10,709 --> 01:24:08,800 other possibility 2189 01:24:13,189 --> 01:24:10,719 there were stories that came out of the 2190 01:24:15,350 --> 01:24:13,199 1980 rendelstrom forest 2191 01:24:18,310 --> 01:24:15,360 encounter 2192 01:24:20,870 --> 01:24:18,320 of the bentwaters case where so many 2193 01:24:22,709 --> 01:24:20,880 military eyewitnesses saw things 2194 01:24:24,470 --> 01:24:22,719 in and out of the forest and there were 2195 01:24:26,070 --> 01:24:24,480 reports that some of them saw something 2196 01:24:28,629 --> 01:24:26,080 that was on the ground and 2197 01:24:29,669 --> 01:24:28,639 some claims that some of the military 2198 01:24:32,229 --> 01:24:29,679 personnel 2199 01:24:33,910 --> 01:24:32,239 got close to the object and and what the 2200 01:24:35,910 --> 01:24:33,920 closer they got to it 2201 01:24:38,470 --> 01:24:35,920 it the thing moved out of the way 2202 01:24:39,669 --> 01:24:38,480 it didn't fly out of the way it just 2203 01:24:41,750 --> 01:24:39,679 moved away 2204 01:24:43,590 --> 01:24:41,760 like a living thing would just move and 2205 01:24:45,189 --> 01:24:43,600 didn't want to be touched 2206 01:24:47,910 --> 01:24:45,199 like whoa 2207 01:24:49,270 --> 01:24:47,920 so what are we dealing with here there's 2208 01:24:50,070 --> 01:24:49,280 a lot more 2209 01:24:51,189 --> 01:24:50,080 to 2210 01:24:54,709 --> 01:24:51,199 just 2211 01:24:57,110 --> 01:24:54,719 something that looks like a flying 2212 01:24:59,830 --> 01:24:57,120 saucer or a dorito 2213 01:25:03,830 --> 01:24:59,840 there's something more happening here 2214 01:25:06,709 --> 01:25:05,430 there's a big part of me now that's 2215 01:25:09,669 --> 01:25:06,719 thinking 2216 01:25:11,910 --> 01:25:09,679 maybe this is the reason why 2217 01:25:15,189 --> 01:25:11,920 the governments of the world haven't 2218 01:25:16,950 --> 01:25:15,199 been entirely honest or totally 2219 01:25:18,310 --> 01:25:16,960 transparent 2220 01:25:21,270 --> 01:25:18,320 with the public 2221 01:25:22,629 --> 01:25:21,280 about what's going on because maybe 2222 01:25:25,590 --> 01:25:22,639 this is a little 2223 01:25:27,510 --> 01:25:25,600 more serious than what most people would 2224 01:25:29,510 --> 01:25:27,520 be able to handle 2225 01:25:30,870 --> 01:25:29,520 i never used to think that 2226 01:25:33,430 --> 01:25:30,880 you know it's it's that whole thing well 2227 01:25:35,510 --> 01:25:33,440 with the will the public panic 2228 01:25:39,510 --> 01:25:35,520 i i don't know if panic is the right 2229 01:25:42,870 --> 01:25:39,520 word but will is is the public ready 2230 01:25:44,390 --> 01:25:42,880 to be told what's really behind the 2231 01:25:45,750 --> 01:25:44,400 phenomenon 2232 01:25:49,510 --> 01:25:45,760 do you think they do you think they 2233 01:25:52,070 --> 01:25:49,520 actually know though i i think that 2234 01:25:54,790 --> 01:25:52,080 the governments of the world 2235 01:25:57,189 --> 01:25:54,800 know more than they're saying uh there 2236 01:25:58,149 --> 01:25:57,199 are probably no more than we do yes 2237 01:25:59,990 --> 01:25:58,159 yeah 2238 01:26:01,510 --> 01:26:00,000 but i think that there 2239 01:26:03,030 --> 01:26:01,520 could be a reason 2240 01:26:05,030 --> 01:26:03,040 why 2241 01:26:06,470 --> 01:26:05,040 they're not saying anything more about 2242 01:26:09,189 --> 01:26:06,480 it 2243 01:26:12,310 --> 01:26:09,199 because because once one 2244 01:26:14,149 --> 01:26:12,320 leader of some major country goes 2245 01:26:16,070 --> 01:26:14,159 forward and says oh we're going to just 2246 01:26:19,110 --> 01:26:16,080 release this well then the cat's all out 2247 01:26:20,950 --> 01:26:19,120 of the bag the the pandora's box is open 2248 01:26:22,470 --> 01:26:20,960 and and then what do you do 2249 01:26:24,550 --> 01:26:22,480 then how do you 2250 01:26:26,390 --> 01:26:24,560 respond how is it going to affect 2251 01:26:29,189 --> 01:26:26,400 religion what does the vatican think 2252 01:26:31,189 --> 01:26:29,199 about this why does the vatican have two 2253 01:26:33,430 --> 01:26:31,199 different places where they have 2254 01:26:36,550 --> 01:26:33,440 astronomical observatories and they have 2255 01:26:39,430 --> 01:26:36,560 teams of vatican astronomers and quite 2256 01:26:40,629 --> 01:26:39,440 amazing looking looking looking into the 2257 01:26:43,030 --> 01:26:40,639

or i spoke with someone one of the 2265 01:26:59,030 --> 01:26:57,760 astronomers at one time um i don't think 2266 01:27:01,430 --> 01:26:59,040 i had him on the show i think i'd 2267 01:27:02,950 --> 01:27:01,440 remember that but i was trying to i 2268 01:27:04,870 --> 01:27:02,960 believe which would be really 2269 01:27:07,590 --> 01:27:04,880 fascinating um and that's it somewhere 2270 01:27:08,870 --> 01:27:07,600 in the united states that particular uh 2271 01:27:11,590 --> 01:27:08,880 telescope 2272 01:27:13,830 --> 01:27:11,600 is arizona it's arizona yeah yeah it's 2273

--> 01:27:20,719 that 2277 01:27:24,950 --> 01:27:22,800 i'm going to have colonel chuck halt is 2278 01:27:27,110 --> 01:27:24,960 going to be on my show on thursday night 2279 01:27:28,470 --> 01:27:27,120 yeah he was one of the primary witnesses 2280 01:27:31,430 --> 01:27:28,480 at the randallstrom 2281 01:27:33,110 --> 01:27:31,440 encounter in 1980 and and he's going to 2282 01:27:35,189 --> 01:27:33,120 talk about how 2283 01:27:36,629 --> 01:27:35,199 he believes that there is 2284 01:27:38,070 --> 01:27:36,639 a slow 2285 01:27:40,310 --> 01:27:38,080 disclosure 2286 01:27:42,790 --> 01:27:40,320 going on and i'm going to say to him 2287 01:27:43,990 --> 01:27:42,800 okay but who's in charge of how slow 2288 01:27:46,709 --> 01:27:44,000 should this be 2289 01:27:49,830 --> 01:27:46,719 what will determine when the slowness of 2290 01:27:52,950 --> 01:27:51,350 great questions i can't wait to watch 2291 01:27:55,030 --> 01:27:52,960 that i've had charles on a number of 2292 01:27:57,350 --> 01:27:55,040 times and uh yeah i hope to have him 2293 01:28:00,390 --> 01:27:57,360 back he's he's always uh he's always a 2294 01:28:03,110 --> 01:28:00,400 great guest he's got a lot to say yes 2295 01:28:05,030 --> 01:28:03,120 and and he doesn't mind the controversy 2296 01:28:07,750 --> 01:28:05,040 of what he has to say 2297 01:28:09,189 --> 01:28:07,760 and uh and i i appreciate that i respect 2298 01:28:11,669 --> 01:28:09,199 him for that and he's one of these 2299 01:28:14,550 --> 01:28:11,679 people that wish it never happened 2300 01:28:17,030 --> 01:28:14,560 yeah he's very sincere about that yeah 2301 01:28:19,110 --> 01:28:17,040 so uh because he didn't need it as a 2302 01:28:20,790 --> 01:28:19,120 part of his life and he he's told me 2303 01:28:23,110 --> 01:28:20,800 that he's put it away 2304 01:28:25,189 --> 01:28:23,120 uh for a while sometimes you know kind 2305 01:28:27,350 --> 01:28:25,199 of put it off so he didn't have to deal 2306 01:28:29,590 --> 01:28:27,360 with it but it always he always comes 2307 01:28:32,310 --> 01:28:29,600 back to it it always comes back to him 2308 01:28:34,709 --> 01:28:32,320 actually he told me decades ago when we 2309 01:28:36,870 --> 01:28:34,719 first met he said to me 2310 01:28:39,030 --> 01:28:36,880 all that i will tell you right now is 2311 01:28:40,950 --> 01:28:39,040 that when when the truth finally comes 2312 01:28:44,229 --> 01:28:40,960 out and the public is told what's really 2313 01:28:45,830 --> 01:28:44,239 going on it's going to change reality as 2314 01:28:48,229 --> 01:28:45,840 we know it 2315 01:28:50,470 --> 01:28:48,239 and when he said that to me i went okay 2316 01:28:52,229 --> 01:28:50,480 i accept that and that's a great way to 2317 01:28:55,270 --> 01:28:52,239 end this even interview 2318 01:28:58,229 --> 01:28:55,280 with with him but it was like wow and i 2319 01:28:59,590 --> 01:28:58,239 believe that i think that it will change 2320 01:29:01,990 --> 01:28:59,600 reality 2321 01:29:03,750 --> 01:29:02,000 and and maybe he's right that it'll have 2322 01:29:05,669 --> 01:29:03,760 to be it must be 2323 01:29:07,590 --> 01:29:05,679 slow disclosure 2324 01:29:08,870 --> 01:29:07,600 but you know on the other end of that 2325 01:29:11,750 --> 01:29:08,880 what is it that they're going to 2326 01:29:12,870 --> 01:29:11,760 disclose that requires it to happen 2327 01:29:14,310 --> 01:29:12,880 slowly 2328 01:29:17,990 --> 01:29:14,320 you know i don't know yet 2329 01:29:19,669 --> 01:29:18,000 yeah yeah uh i think also someone 2330 01:29:22,390 --> 01:29:19,679 said something like that and i'm trying 2331 01:29:24,550 --> 01:29:22,400 to remember lou elizondo said it's been 2332 01:29:26,950 --> 01:29:24,560 happening you know i mean and i know you 2333 01:29:28,629 --> 01:29:26,960 you recently i had a meeting with him 2334 01:29:31,030 --> 01:29:28,639 yeah i know you
