00:02:45,020 --> 00:02:43,350 is the source of the band's name some of 64 00:02:47,360 --> 00:02:45,030 you are probably aware the Dave Grohl 65 00:02:50,480 --> 00:02:47,370 the frontman of the band

00:03:12,620 --> 00:03:10,140 phenomenon not the band Maureen is going 75 00:03:14,900 --> 00:03:12,630 to give us a brief overview of the real 76 00:03:18,530 --> 00:03:14,910 Foo Fighter phenomenon Maureen sure well 77 00:03:21,610 --> 00:03:18,540 first off this is a day early but I 78 00:03:24,830 --> 00:03:21,620 believe this Tuesday is extraterrestrial 79 00:03:32,090 --> 00:03:24,840 culture day so happy extraterrestrial 80 00:03:34,640 --> 00:03:32,100 culture day is really will participate 81 00:03:36,949 --> 00:03:34,650 so yeah the Foo Fighters is was kind of 82 00:03:41,360 --> 00:03:36,959 a common phenomenon especially during 83 00:03:43,070 --> 00:03:41,370 World War 2 area times so spotted all 84 00:03:45,770 --> 00:03:43,080 over the world pretty much but there are 85 00:03:48,370 --> 00:03:45,780 some main cases and I'll just cover 86 00:03:51,160 --> 00:03:48,380 super briefly that the most popular 87 00:03:55,460 --> 00:03:51,170 incident that happened in November of 88 00:03:57,710 --> 00:03:55,470 1944 but basically there were reports 89 00:04:00,800 --> 00:03:57,720 coming in from the 415 night fighter 90 00:04:03,650 --> 00:04:00,810 squadron that there were red and orange 91 00:04:07,610 --> 00:04:03,660 like fireballs that were chasing their 92 00:04:10,970 --> 00:04:07,620 planes and out maneuvering them and they 93 00:04:13,880 --> 00:04:10,980 weren't spotted on radar or scene from 94 00:04:15,830 --> 00:04:13,890 other places and they said that they 95 00:04:17,680 --> 00:04:15,840 spotted these objects moving about 200 96 00:04:21,409 --> 00:04:17,690 miles per hour next to the planes and 97 00:04:24,350 --> 00:04:21,419 had no idea what they were so this gets 98 00:04:27,200 --> 00:04:24,360 talked about these are pilots they're 99 00:04:29,450 --> 00:04:27,210 trained to identify things in the sky 100 00:04:33,020 --> 00:04:29,460 they were really concerned they were 101 00:04:34,700 --> 00:04:33,030 scared they didn't know what it was many 102 00:04:37,310 --> 00:04:34,710 people you know once this started 103 00:04:40,700 --> 00:04:37,320 getting press the term Foo Fighters I 104 00:04:43,760 --> 00:04:40,710 should say comes from a comic strip so 105 00:04:47,740 --> 00:04:43,770 the one of the pilots called them Foo 106 00:04:51,260 --> 00:04:47,750 Fighters off of this this smokey Stover 107 00:04:52,909 --> 00:04:51,270 comic and which he was a fan of so you 108 00:04:54,500 --> 00:04:52,919 know kind of unknown fireball kind of 109 00:04:55,010 --> 00:04:54,510 thing and people didn't know what it was 110 00:04:59,180 --> 00:04:55,020 this is 111 00:05:03,110 --> 00:04:59,190 during war so they it wasn't really like 112 00:05:05,659 --> 00:05:03,120 these were aggressive things firing at 113 00:05:08,089 --> 00:05:05,669 them but they were concerned you know is 114 00:05:10,159 --> 00:05:08,099 this military weapon of some sort we do 115 00:05:15,520 --> 00:05:10,169 not know and it was generally thought 116 00:05:18,680 --> 00:05:15,530 that perhaps it was a German secret 117 00:05:21,529 --> 00:05:18,690 weapon that wasn't really attacking you 118 00:05:22,820 --> 00:05:21,539 know being tested or other people have 119 00:05:25,610 --> 00:05:22,830 suggested you know this is something 120 00:05:29,350 --> 00:05:25,620 that again was investigated by Blue Book 121 00:05:32,029 --> 00:05:29,360 and was a feature for the Robinson panel 122 00:05:36,320 --> 00:05:32,039 Robertson's panel when that was I think 123 00:05:38,210 --> 00:05:36,330 in the 50s so you know was this static 124 00:05:42,140 --> 00:05:38,220 electricity some people accused it of 125 00:05:44,839 --> 00:05:42,150 being st. st. Elmo's fire some sort of 126 00:05:46,879 --> 00:05:44,849 ball lightning but these were objects 127 00:05:48,890 --> 00:05:46,889 that that you know we're coming up in a 128 00:05:50,990 --> 00:05:48,900 formation of eight to ten sometimes 129 00:05:53,570 --> 00:05:51,000 people spotted them by themselves that 130 00:05:55,939 --> 00:05:53,580 we're moving at extreme rates speed that 131 00:06:00,230 --> 00:05:55,949 were out maneuvering these fighter 132 00:06:04,279 --> 00:06:00,240 pilots so a concern because again 133 00:06:05,749 --> 00:06:04,289 unknown objects in the sky prior to us 134 00:06:08,570 --> 00:06:05,759 talking about this we've talked before 135 00:06:10,100 --> 00:06:08,580 about how if it's a threat in the 136 00:06:13,719 --> 00:06:10,110 airspace if you don't know what exactly 137 00:06:16,430 --> 00:06:13,729 it is so these were really a mysterious 138 00:06:19,219 --> 00:06:16,440 and then have been reported all over the 139 00:06:21,110 --> 00:06:19,229 place since then and there's again like 140 00:06:23,300 --> 00:06:21,120 I said there's these like blanket 141 00:06:26,140 --> 00:06:23,310 explanations people have suggested but 142 00:06:29,029 --> 00:06:26,150 this is still technically an unknown 143 00:06:30,800 --> 00:06:29,039 case that we didn't know what these what 144 00:06:32,510 --> 00:06:30,810 these items were yeah like you said 145 00:06:34,969 --> 00:06:32,520 especially during wartime 146 00:06:36,890 --> 00:06:34,979 you know our thoughts were you know this 147 00:06:39,559 --> 00:06:36,900 must be the other side having some 148 00:06:41,899 --> 00:06:39,569 technology that we don't know about but 149 00:06:43,610 --> 00:06:41,909 at the same time that's what they were 150 00:06:44,870 --> 00:06:43,620 thinking when they were saying that I'm 151 00:06:46,550 --> 00:06:44,880 saying no this must be something the 152 00:06:49,040 --> 00:06:46,560 Americans have we got to figure out what 153 00:06:51,230 --> 00:06:49,050 this is because this clearly isn't us so 154 00:06:53,719 --> 00:06:51,240 if you have all all sides having these 155 00:06:57,170 --> 00:06:53,729 same thoughts and the answer ultimately 156 00:06:59,269 --> 00:06:57,180 was no that's not harsh we don't know 157 00:07:03,999 --> 00:06:59,279 whose it is so yeah in fact I think they 158 00:07:09,270 --> 00:07:07,080 Pacific Theaters so they were you know 159 00:07:13,920 --> 00:07:09,280 wasn't just Germans just Americans but 160 00:07:16,020 --> 00:07:13,930 even included the Japanese yes if I 161 00:07:18,510 --> 00:07:16,030 remember correctly Jason wasn't there 162 00:07:21,629 --> 00:07:18,520 there's a big case of Foo Fighters above 163 00:07:23,610 --> 00:07:21,639 Alaska that was widely reported or am I 164 00:07:26,250 --> 00:07:23,620 making that up no I don't think you're 165 00:07:28,020 --> 00:07:26,260 making that up but I can't recall so I 166 00:07:30,030 --> 00:07:28,030 don't remember that but now that you say 167 00:07:33,659 --> 00:07:30,040 that that definitely rings a bell yeah 168 00:07:36,570 --> 00:07:33,669 I'm pretty sure we did some sort of 169 00:07:41,310 --> 00:07:36,580 article or something on it one day we 170 00:07:43,800 --> 00:07:41,320 did I'm googling this right now yeah 171 00:07:46,020 --> 00:07:43,810 it's so hard and I will say this like I 172 00:07:48,080 --> 00:07:46,030 mentioned to you guys and like Jason 173 00:07:51,540 --> 00:07:48,090 said you know Foo Fighters the band's 174 00:07:53,550 --> 00:07:51,550 name is taken from this so if you're 175 00:07:55,440 --> 00:07:53,560 interested in this case and you want to 176 00:07:57,090 --> 00:07:55,450 do your research on it you have to be a 177 00:07:58,800 --> 00:07:57,100 little more aggressive with your keyword 178 00:08:01,409 --> 00:07:58,810 research because if you search Foo 179 00:08:04,080 --> 00:08:01,419 Fighters or Foo Fighters UFO you're not 180 00:08:08,250 --> 00:08:04,090 going to get a whole ton of information 181 00:08:10,590 --> 00:08:08,260 outside of you know UFO merch on the Foo 182 00:08:12,330 --> 00:08:10,600 Fighters band website there's nothing 183 00:08:14,700 --> 00:08:12,340 wrong with that either yeah that's cool 184 00:08:17,310 --> 00:08:14,710 yeah but it's probably not what you're 185 00:08:19,770 --> 00:08:17,320 looking for well now that we have the 186 00:08:21,240 --> 00:08:19,780 history what did you think of how Foo 187 00:08:23,040 --> 00:08:21,250 Fighters were portrayed in the recent 188 00:08:26,550 --> 00:08:23,050 project Bluebook episode chain yeah I 189 00:08:29,430 --> 00:08:26,560 thought it was pretty cool actually the 190 00:08:32,579 --> 00:08:29,440 entire episode there are a couple things 191 00:08:34,860 --> 00:08:32,589 that caught my eye one was the character 192 00:08:37,409 --> 00:08:34,870 fuller and if you remember he's the 193 00:08:39,990 --> 00:08:37,419 pilot from the Gorman case or Gorman 194 00:08:42,209 --> 00:08:40,000 himself from the very first episode and 195 00:08:44,400 --> 00:08:42,219 I was thinking you know why why didn't 196 00:08:46,650 --> 00:08:44,410 they use this real name you know at the 197 00:08:48,900 --> 00:08:46,660 time it like they're using you know dr. 198 00:08:50,790 --> 00:08:48,910 Hynek and stuff and then I realized you 199 00:08:52,980 --> 00:08:50,800 know this this guy is a fictional 200 00:08:56,070 --> 00:08:52,990 character that's threaded through all of 201 00:08:58,050 --> 00:08:56,080 the episodes so far and so that's 202 00:09:00,120 --> 00:08:58,060 probably why they you know fictionalized 203 00:09:01,860 --> 00:09:00,130 his name so they could continue to use 204 00:09:04,740 --> 00:09:01,870 them throughout you know these episodes 205 00:09:06,329 --> 00:09:04,750 so such that that was kind of cool and 206 00:09:08,460 --> 00:09:06,339 you know that's at the point that it 207 00:09:09,810 --> 00:09:08,470 done done the other thing I thought was 208 00:09:12,510 --> 00:09:09,820 kind of interesting 209 00:09:14,670 --> 00:09:12,520 they dropped by f-bomb in that show I 210 00:09:16,620 --> 00:09:14,680 couldn't believe it I I mean they 211 00:09:18,090 --> 00:09:16,630 there's a little language there but and 212 00:09:21,060 --> 00:09:18,100 it was Quinn who did it did you guys 213 00:09:27,630 --> 00:09:21,070 notice that no I didn't catch that it's 214 00:09:29,660 --> 00:09:27,640 part of it's part of such my everyday no 215 00:09:32,220 --> 00:09:29,670 I just thought that was kind of funny 216 00:09:34,410 --> 00:09:32,230 yeah that is funny and it's fun I need 217 00:09:36,510 --> 00:09:34,420 to go back and watch now yeah alright 218 00:09:38,280 --> 00:09:36,520 well I feel like these episodes always 219 00:09:40,740 --> 00:09:38,290 you have to watch them twice because 220 00:09:43,650 --> 00:09:40,750 you're gonna miss things if you just 221 00:09:45,870 --> 00:09:43,660 kind of skim through it yeah you know I 222 00:09:48,930 --> 00:09:45,880 thought was really ridiculous in this 223 00:09:51,030 --> 00:09:48,940 episode as I was laughing I'm like oh 224 00:09:53,580 --> 00:09:51,040 great so now we officially have turned 225 00:09:57,750 --> 00:09:53,590 the food fighter pilots into UFO 226 00:10:00,330 --> 00:09:57,760 summoners yeah oh yeah yeah I thought 227 00:10:00,750 --> 00:10:00,340 that was pretty ridiculous like oh here 228 00:10:06,660 --> 00:10:00,760 they come 229 00:10:09,000 --> 00:10:06,670 with their big antenna in the back of 230 00:10:12,570 --> 00:10:09,010 their pickup yeah from washing machines 231 00:10:14,430 --> 00:10:12,580 and which is a little disappointing for 232 00:10:17,160 --> 00:10:14,440 me because one of the things about the 233 00:10:19,370 --> 00:10:17,170 Foo Fighters sightings and cases is that 234 00:10:24,240 --> 00:10:19,380 these are coming from really credible 235 00:10:26,630 --> 00:10:24,250 witnesses and UFO summoning is not 236 00:10:30,300 --> 00:10:26,640 something I really hold super high 237 00:10:33,300 --> 00:10:30,310 regard of personally so I don't know it 238 00:10:36,060 --> 00:10:33,310 was a little dismissive for me but one 239 00:10:39,030 --> 00:10:36,070 thing I did enjoy in this episode is 240 00:10:42,030 --> 00:10:39,040 because there are so many pilots you 241 00:10:43,530 --> 00:10:42,040 know the character Quinn you can see him 242 00:10:45,120 --> 00:10:43,540 start processing this and saying look 243 00:10:46,980 --> 00:10:45,130 these are the guys that you know I was 244 00:10:49,350 --> 00:10:46,990 in combat with these people these are my 245 00:10:51,390 --> 00:10:49,360 boys you know and I can tell how 246 00:10:54,570 --> 00:10:51,400 affected they are by whatever happened 247 00:10:57,120 --> 00:10:54,580 to them and you know they all have these 248 00:10:59,910 --> 00:10:57,130 similar stories of being taken away and 249 00:11:01,860 --> 00:10:59,920 having your brain wiped and so he starts 250 00:11:04,640 --> 00:11:01,870 realizing that there might be something 251 00:11:06,750 --> 00:11:04,650 to this and you can see he's starting to 252 00:11:09,090 --> 00:11:06,760 understand that maybe the people he's 253 00:11:13,680 --> 00:11:09,100 working for her aren't - aren't such 254 00:11:15,300 --> 00:11:13,690 great guys oh yeah it doesn't think too 255 00:11:16,950 --> 00:11:15,310 that you know I thought was kind of 256 00:11:19,170 --> 00:11:16,960 interesting I don't know maybe I misread 257 00:11:20,430 --> 00:11:19,180 it see what you guys think but did it 258 00:11:23,490 --> 00:11:20,440 look like that they were trying to 259 00:11:26,100 --> 00:11:23,500 incorporate what are they called number 260 00:11:29,040 --> 00:11:26,110 number stations you know over the radio 261 00:11:29,610 --> 00:11:29,050 and where someone this voice just lists 262 00:11:31,470 --> 00:11:29,620 of 263 00:11:33,570 --> 00:11:31,480 several numbers and it repeats and 264 00:11:34,410 --> 00:11:33,580 repeats did you catch that yeah 265 00:11:36,510 --> 00:11:34,420 absolutely 266 00:11:38,940 --> 00:11:36,520 yeah I thought that was interesting and 267 00:11:41,490 --> 00:11:38,950 that that's really you know a tie to the 268 00:11:43,230 --> 00:11:41,500 50s and the whole spy thing where you 269 00:11:44,610 --> 00:11:43,240 know this is codes that are put out in 270 00:11:46,440 --> 00:11:44,620 the receivers know what they mean and 271 00:11:48,480 --> 00:11:46,450 blah blah blah but yeah I thought that's 272 00:11:50,490 --> 00:11:48,490 kind of interesting detail to weave into 273 00:11:52,880 --> 00:11:50,500 this whole thing as well and I'm sure 274 00:11:55,079 --> 00:11:52,890 they just oh go ahead 275 00:11:59,220 --> 00:11:55,089 I like how you bring up that that 276 00:12:00,810 --> 00:11:59,230 weaving because that's a big big focus I 277 00:12:04,800 --> 00:12:00,820 think of the creators here and they're 278 00:12:09,290 --> 00:12:04,810 trying to in their ten episode series to 279 00:12:12,120 --> 00:12:09,300 weave as much as they can into this 280 00:12:15,180 --> 00:12:12,130 storyline into this world that they're 281 00:12:18,269 --> 00:12:15,190 creating and a lot of it you know from 282 00:12:20,160 --> 00:12:18,279 Lou UFO lore just sort of even though it 283 00:12:21,960 --> 00:12:20,170 might not have anything to do with a 284 00:12:24,390 --> 00:12:21,970 particular case that they're they're 285 00:12:26,730 --> 00:12:24,400 using from that particular episode or 286 00:12:28,560 --> 00:12:26,740 the time period that they're necessarily 287 00:12:32,090 --> 00:12:28,570 talking about they're weaving a lot of 288 00:12:34,230 --> 00:12:32,100 stuff from UFO lore into this series and 289 00:12:38,610 --> 00:12:34,240 you know there are plenty of people who 290 00:12:41,460 --> 00:12:38,620 think that is a bad thing because it you 291 00:12:43,680 --> 00:12:41,470 know creates a false impression or or 292 00:12:47,040 --> 00:12:43,690 gives people the wrong information 293 00:12:49,650 --> 00:12:47,050 but honestly anybody who's taking what 294 00:12:52,500 --> 00:12:49,660 they see on TV and using that you know 295 00:12:55,050 --> 00:12:52,510 as real information probably needs a 296 00:12:56,579 --> 00:12:55,060 little help but you know it's a it's a 297 00:12:58,290 --> 00:12:56,589 good in my mind it's a good starting 298 00:13:00,660 --> 00:12:58,300 point for people to get those those 299 00:13:02,880 --> 00:13:00,670 wheels turning and to get the the 300 00:13:04,380 --> 00:13:02,890 interest there so people start doing the 301 00:13:07,140 --> 00:13:04,390 research and looking into these things 302 00:13:10,380 --> 00:13:07,150 themselves looking into you not only the 303 00:13:12,810 --> 00:13:10,390 cases but also these interesting things 304 00:13:16,590 --> 00:13:12,820 that are being woven into the story that 305 00:13:19,019 --> 00:13:16,600 do come from UFO lore so I like it being 306 00:13:20,460 --> 00:13:19,029 a UFO geek I've said it before I enjoy 307 00:13:22,199 --> 00:13:20,470 seeing all those things thrown in there 308 00:13:24,390 --> 00:13:22,209 because you know you watch these these 309 00:13:26,070 --> 00:13:24,400 episodes you know oh yeah they're 310 00:13:29,550 --> 00:13:26,080 pulling that from that particular thing 311 00:13:32,400 --> 00:13:29,560 from from UFO history and it's fun for 312 00:13:34,949 --> 00:13:32,410 me but I can see the other side people 313 00:13:37,440 --> 00:13:34,959 being displeased at the 314 00:13:39,030 --> 00:13:37,450 misrepresentation of history yeah and it 315 00:13:41,220 --> 00:13:39,040 was just announced this weekend that 316 00:13:44,009 --> 00:13:41,230 they got renewed for season two yeah 317 00:13:47,100 --> 00:13:44,019 that's right so 318 00:13:49,759 --> 00:13:47,110 in accuracy and or accuracy coming your 319 00:13:53,009 --> 00:13:49,769 way that's right a whole season yeah 320 00:13:55,590 --> 00:13:53,019 yeah you know there's a lot of programs 321 00:13:58,499 --> 00:13:55,600 on on these channels that are like that 322 00:14:01,530 --> 00:13:58,509 right and and it is oh it's this blend 323 00:14:03,840 --> 00:14:01,540 of you know fact and fiction that that 324 00:14:05,240 --> 00:14:03,850 frankly makes really awesome stories I 325 00:14:07,920 --> 00:14:05,250 mean you know it's great entertainment 326 00:14:10,619 --> 00:14:07,930 but yeah you do have to be discerning 327 00:14:13,230 --> 00:14:10,629 about you know those facts and don't 328 00:14:15,090 --> 00:14:13,240 take it to the bank but thing is is you 329 00:14:17,220 --> 00:14:15,100 know there will be two kinds of people 330 00:14:19,439 --> 00:14:17,230 right those who are intrigued enough to 331 00:14:21,840 --> 00:14:19,449 do some personal research and discover 332 00:14:23,069 --> 00:14:21,850 you know the accuracies and then you 333 00:14:25,769 --> 00:14:23,079 have people that are really just looking 334 00:14:27,360 --> 00:14:25,779 for entertainment and and you know 335 00:14:28,499 --> 00:14:27,370 they'll watch it just for that and 336 00:14:30,420 --> 00:14:28,509 they're not gonna research it any 337 00:14:32,429 --> 00:14:30,430 further and you know that's fine - 338 00:14:35,309 --> 00:14:32,439 that's right Shane both of those are 339 00:14:40,019 --> 00:14:35,319 perfectly fine because you know what not 340 00:14:42,629 --> 00:14:40,029 everybody needs to research UFOs again 341 00:14:45,809 --> 00:14:42,639 we like to say UFOs is not a religion 342 00:14:48,389 --> 00:14:45,819 although a big chunk of it does hinge on 343 00:14:49,829 --> 00:14:48,399 belief it's not a religion and it 344 00:14:52,230 --> 00:14:49,839 doesn't need to be forced down people's 345 00:14:54,689 --> 00:14:52,240 throats and we don't need to convince 346 00:14:56,009 --> 00:14:54,699 people and tell them how they should 347 00:14:58,829 --> 00:14:56,019 believe or what they should believe 348 00:15:00,269 --> 00:14:58,839 that's we're all individuals people need 349 00:15:03,090 --> 00:15:00,279 to make up their own minds and decide 350 00:15:05,160 --> 00:15:03,100 how and what they want to do with this 351 00:15:07,049 --> 00:15:05,170 information if anything at all for a 352 00:15:08,819 --> 00:15:07,059 good chunk of people watching this show 353 00:15:10,559 --> 00:15:08,829 they're enjoying the entertainment value 354 00:15:12,299 --> 00:15:10,569 they're casually interested in the 355 00:15:14,340 --> 00:15:12,309 subject they're enjoying a good show 356 00:15:17,249 --> 00:15:14,350 about that subject if that's what they 357 00:15:18,749 --> 00:15:17,259 want to do that's perfectly fine yeah 358 00:15:20,189 --> 00:15:18,759 and stay away from with the religion 359 00:15:22,199 --> 00:15:20,199 stuff I mean I was just watching a 360 00:15:23,999 --> 00:15:22,209 documentary about Heaven's Gate the 361 00:15:25,949 --> 00:15:24,009 other day if that was it's pretty 362 00:15:28,230 --> 00:15:25,959
