00:03:18,070 --> 00:03:16,130 something that Ryan and I did was lead 74 00:03:20,200 --> 00:03:18,080 an experience or session to let people 75 00:03:22,060 --> 00:03:20,210 come in and share their experiences 76 00:03:23,740 --> 00:03:22,070 because something we point we've pointed 77 00:03:26,800 --> 00:03:23,750 out before that we'd really love about 78 00:03:29,920 --> 00:03:26,810 this type of event is it's a pop culture 79 00:03:32,200 --> 00:03:29,930 event and a lot of the people who come 80 00:03:35,140 --> 00:03:32,210 here come to come to events like alien 81 00:03:37,330 --> 00:03:35,150 con haven't really ever talked about the 82 00:03:39,880 --> 00:03:37,340 subject of UFOs or extraterrestrials in 83 00:03:42,880 --> 00:03:39,890 public you know to any friends or 84 00:03:45,610 --> 00:03:42,890 relatives even if they feel they've had 85 00:03:48,310 --> 00:03:45,620 some sort of major experience you know 86 00:03:51,250 --> 00:03:48,320 contact or anything traumatic they've 87 00:03:53,110 --> 00:03:51,260 never told anybody so you know that's 88 00:03:54,790 --> 00:03:53,120 the extreme then even on the casual and 89 00:03:58,390 --> 00:03:54,800 people who just like have a casual 90 00:03:59,980 --> 00:03:58,400 interest in the topic of UFOs because of 91 00:04:02,890 --> 00:03:59,990 the the stigma surrounding the topic 92 00:04:05,650 --> 00:04:02,900 they feel that they can't admit that to 93 00:04:08,440 --> 00:04:05,660 people lest they be made fun of so you 94 00:04:10,090 --> 00:04:08,450 get this whole mix of people who have 95 00:04:12,310 --> 00:04:10,100 this interest in the topic for one 96 00:04:14,110 --> 00:04:12,320 reason or another yet they haven't 97 00:04:17,110 --> 00:04:14,120 discussed it in public so they come to 98 00:04:19,449 --> 00:04:17,120 alien con where they have this safe 99 00:04:21,190 --> 00:04:19,459 space in quotes where they you know are 100 00:04:23,320 --> 00:04:21,200 surrounded by like-minded people and 101 00:04:25,090 --> 00:04:23,330 feel they can open up and so in the 102 00:04:28,020 --> 00:04:25,100 experience or session or in any of the 103 00:04:31,720 --> 00:04:28,030 panels or podcast recordings we held and 104 00:04:34,750 --> 00:04:31,730 invited people to openly discuss or 105 00:04:38,590 --> 00:04:34,760 share personal stories it is just 106 00:04:40,720 --> 00:04:38,600 fascinating seeing these people open up 107 00:04:43,930 --> 00:04:40,730 because you can just see like the layers 108 00:04:45,730 --> 00:04:43,940 melt off and they're all wow this is 109 00:04:48,010 --> 00:04:45,740 kind of unreal I've never talked about 110 00:04:50,830 --> 00:04:48,020 this before and I can talk about it here 111 00:04:51,879 --> 00:04:50,840 and people aren't laughing at me yeah it 112 00:04:54,070 --> 00:04:51,889 was awesome 113 00:04:57,399 --> 00:04:54,080 I mean they were like three or four 114 00:05:00,249 --> 00:04:57,409 people who said you know I've never told 115 00:05:02,170 --> 00:05:00,259 anyone but my husband or my wife about 116 00:05:05,110 --> 00:05:02,180 this you know and and yet they were 117 00:05:07,209 --> 00:05:05,120 walking up to a microphone in front of 118 00:05:10,689 --> 00:05:07,219 you know fifty hundred people whatever 119 00:05:12,790 --> 00:05:10,699 it was and in in let it rip and I I was 120 00:05:15,429 --> 00:05:12,800 just so impressed how brave people were 121 00:05:18,249 --> 00:05:15,439 and then you could really see how you 122 00:05:20,369 --> 00:05:18,259 know the emotional impact on them and it 123 00:05:22,990 --> 00:05:20,379 was obvious when they were you know 124 00:05:24,580 --> 00:05:23,000 recounting what had happened so and the 125 00:05:28,119 --> 00:05:24,590 audience was really great too they were 126 00:05:30,309 --> 00:05:28,129 real you know empathetic and you know 127 00:05:32,559 --> 00:05:30,319 plotted for these people and so it was 128 00:05:35,140 --> 00:05:32,569 you know I thought that was just awesome 129 00:05:37,209 --> 00:05:35,150 I'm always so glad to see that to you 130 00:05:38,559 --> 00:05:37,219 and that happens because you know I'm 131 00:05:41,459 --> 00:05:38,569 always worried there's gonna be some 132 00:05:43,990 --> 00:05:41,469 jerk who just wants to be an and 133 00:05:45,939 --> 00:05:44,000 make fun of these people or make some 134 00:05:48,490 --> 00:05:45,949 comment like hurry up other people want 135 00:05:50,080 --> 00:05:48,500 to talk and some of these people like 136 00:05:53,050 --> 00:05:50,090 you said Shane you can tell that they 137 00:05:55,540 --> 00:05:53,060 are there visibly visibly fragile and 138 00:05:56,950 --> 00:05:55,550 they it's taken all of their courage to 139 00:05:59,110 --> 00:05:56,960 get up in front of this crowd first of 140 00:06:01,420 --> 00:05:59,120 all and then to share something that 141 00:06:04,450 --> 00:06:01,430 they've held in for the in some cases 142 00:06:06,399 --> 00:06:04,460 their entire lives um you know so it's 143 00:06:08,230 --> 00:06:06,409 it's taken a lot of bravery for them to 144 00:06:10,149 --> 00:06:08,240 be up there and they're in a really 145 00:06:11,499 --> 00:06:10,159 fragile state so I'm always worried that 146 00:06:14,050 --> 00:06:11,509 somebody's going to do something stupid 147 00:06:15,700 --> 00:06:14,060 but

within that app of people who are at 228 00:09:17,250 --> 00:09:16,269 alien con and it's really cool to see 229 00:09:25,680 --> 00:09:17,260 yeah 230 00:09:28,380 --> 00:09:25,690 was neat well alright let's get into our 231 00:09:31,050 --> 00:09:28,390 unidentified conversation but first 232 00:09:34,500 --> 00:09:31,060 here's a brief recap of what episode 233 00:09:37,200 --> 00:09:34,510 four of unidentified showed us so in the 234 00:09:39,510 --> 00:09:37,210 first three episodes of this show they 235 00:09:41,760 --> 00:09:39,520 primarily focused on what is known as 236 00:09:44,250 --> 00:09:41,770 the Tic Tac incident a navy UFO 237 00:09:46,830 --> 00:09:44,260 encounter that occurred back in 2004 off 238 00:09:49,140 --> 00:09:46,840 the coast of San Diego but in Episode 239 00:09:52,920 --> 00:09:49,150 four the show's investigator Lou 240 00:09:55,500 --> 00:09:52,930 Elizondo heads east to meet up with two 241 00:09:58,770 --> 00:09:55,510 active Navy servicemen who say they were 242 00:10:02,130 --> 00:09:58,780 personally involved in UFO incidents 243 00:10:04,950 --> 00:10:02,140 that occurred in 2014 and 2015 off the 244 00:10:08,000 --> 00:10:04,960 East Coast these pilots are lieutenant 245 00:10:11,190 --> 00:10:08,010 Ryan graves and Lieutenant Danny a coin 246 00:10:14,280 --> 00:10:11,200 these pilots share their assertions that 247 00:10:17,490 --> 00:10:14,290 UFOs followed the Navy strike group up 248 00:10:19,800 --> 00:10:17,500 and down the coast for months and even 249 00:10:23,100 --> 00:10:19,810 reappeared when the strike group was 250 00:10:25,290 --> 00:10:23,110 deployed to the Arabian Gulf at one 251 00:10:28,500 --> 00:10:25,300 point lieutenant a coin even asserts 252 00:10:32,940 --> 00:10:28,510 that at least 50 others aboard the USS 253 00:10:37,140 --> 00:10:32,950 Roosevelt that he knew of at least were 254 00:10:39,540 --> 00:10:37,150 aware of this UFO activity also in the 255 00:10:41,850 --> 00:10:39,550 episode we see lieutenant graves 256 00:10:44,670 --> 00:10:41,860 summoned to Washington DC to give a 257 00:10:48,150 --> 00:10:44,680 secret closed-door briefing about these 258 00:10:50,340 --> 00:10:48,160 UFO incidents so that's pretty cool and 259 00:10:53,820 --> 00:10:50,350 we've known this was coming it was cool 260 00:10:55,530 --> 00:10:53,830 to see it presented on the show what do 261 00:10:58,050 --> 00:10:55,540 you think of the episode Shane yeah I 262 00:10:59,520 --> 00:10:58,060 thought it was great because I first of 263 00:11:02,100 --> 00:10:59,530 all like you said mostly all we've heard 264 00:11:03,960 --> 00:11:02,110 about is the 2004 Nimitz case which is 265 00:11:05,340 --> 00:11:03,970 awesome right but we knew these other 266 00:11:07,830 --> 00:11:05,350 videos were out there and that they 267 00:11:09,690 --> 00:11:07,840 weren't part of that sighting so we 268 00:11:13,230 --> 00:11:09,700 really got some real confirmation 269 00:11:15,300 --> 00:11:13,240 information about this activity on the 270 00:11:17,820 --> 00:11:15,310 East Coast and so I like what they did 271 00:11:20,910 --> 00:11:17,830 with the episode date I like that they 272 00:11:25,200 --> 00:11:20,920 that Lou took Dave flavour with him and 273 00:11:27,240 --> 00:11:25,210 perform the interview on nine graves and 274 00:11:29,370 --> 00:11:27,250 then later on Danny 275 00:11:31,620 --> 00:11:29,380 ah coin as well 276 00:11:33,509 --> 00:11:31,630 and they get you know got the testimony 277 00:11:35,519 --> 00:11:33,519 from these pilots and then they got a 278 00:11:37,710 --> 00:11:35,529 lot of information that correlated stuff 279 00:11:40,769 --> 00:11:37,720 so you know that that whole thing about 280 00:11:43,980 --> 00:11:40,779 I think identified you know the the the 281 00:11:46,590 --> 00:11:43,990 gimbal video is basically a saucer they 282 00:11:48,870 --> 00:11:46,600 had the cube with a sphere around it and 283 00:11:51,329 --> 00:11:48,880 then the go-fast was another round 284 00:11:54,540 --> 00:11:51,339 spherical object so three different 285 00:11:56,490 --> 00:11:54,550 objects so we got that kind of explained 286 00:11:58,199 --> 00:11:56,500 I thought that was good and then the 287 00:12:00,660 --> 00:11:58,209 fact that they're saying that you know 288 00:12:02,460 --> 00:12:00,670 this was happening on a daily basis for 289 00:12:04,410 --> 00:12:02,470 months and months yeah that's a 290 00:12:07,410 --> 00:12:04,420 mind-blower that's not a you know a 291 00:12:09,990 --> 00:12:07,420 fluke or freak signing or I mean that 292 00:12:12,300 --> 00:12:10,000 that is that's heavy-duty contact you 293 00:12:15,180 --> 00:12:12,310 know and in fact I think that way they 294 00:12:18,090 --> 00:12:15,190 put it is they said we were stocked for 295 00:12:19,889 --> 00:12:18,100 months by these things so that is that's 296 00:12:21,900 --> 00:12:19,899 a that's a concerning thing especially 297 00:12:24,870 --> 00:12:21,910 when you're in the military and you're 298 00:12:26,879 --> 00:12:24,880 operating a you know practicing for war 299 00:12:29,519 --> 00:12:26,889 and you have you're being stalked by 300 00:12:33,329 --> 00:12:29,529 these things I'm sure that made quite an 301 00:12:35,400 --> 00:12:33,339 impression on them absolutely and you 302 00:12:37,470 --> 00:12:35,410 know it's great to see more pilots on 303 00:12:39,360 --> 00:12:37,480 the show talking about their personal 304 00:12:42,449 --> 00:12:39,370 encounters that's something you know 305 00:12:45,740 --> 00:12:42,459 that the the show is is you know very 306 00:12:50,460 --> 00:12:45,750 firmly behind they want to help these 307 00:12:53,400 --> 00:12:50,470 active and former military service 308 00:12:55,559 --> 00:12:53,410 people to be able to come out and talk 309 00:12:58,980 --> 00:12:55,569 about experiences they've had because 310 00:13:00,600 --> 00:12:58,990 like we're seeing it's it's common yeah 311 00:13:02,639 --> 00:13:00,610 people are has seeing these strange 312 00:13:04,259 --> 00:13:02,649 things they can't explain all the time 313 00:13:07,829 --> 00:13:04,269 and it's not just a handful of people 314 00:13:10,019 --> 00:13:07,839 here and there it's a lot of people who 315 00:13:12,660 --> 00:13:10,029 do during their service are seeing these 316 00:13:16,170 --> 00:13:12,670 things in the sky yeah think about the 317 00:13:18,720 --> 00:13:16,180 power of that testimony from those kinds 318 00:13:21,809 --> 00:13:18,730 of people those witnesses that's that is 319 00:13:23,490 --> 00:13:21,819 strong evidence right and we do want to 320 00:13:25,679 --> 00:13:23,500 point out you know we have to remember 321 00:13:28,410 --> 00:13:25,689 that everything these guys are saying on 322 00:13:30,720 --> 00:13:28,420 the show because their active duty has 323 00:13:33,059 --> 00:13:30,730 to be okayed by the Navy and the DoD so 324 00:13:35,370 --> 00:13:33,069 the DoD okayed what we're seeing on the 325 00:13:37,980 --> 00:13:35,380 show just keep that in mind yeah good 326 00:13:40,980 --> 00:13:37,990 point and you know something I like 327 00:13:42,780 --> 00:13:40,990 seeing too but it's also you know a 328 00:13:45,990 --> 00:13:42,790 little confusing 329 00:13:49,470 --> 00:13:46,000 I understand why but we see Luz 330 00:13:51,600 --> 00:13:49,480 continuing a struggle and frustration 331 00:13:54,120 --> 00:13:51,610 with his efforts 332 00:13:55,790 --> 00:13:54,130 you know worrying that he you know 333 00:13:58,770 --> 00:13:55,800 through these efforts he's going to look 334 00:14:01,080 --> 00:13:58,780 disingenuous in his quest right because 335 00:14:03,330 --> 00:14:01,090 he keeps getting up the fact that you 336 00:14:04,800 --> 00:14:03,340 know he can't disclose or he can't break 337 00:14:08,100 --> 00:14:04,810 his his security oaths 338 00:14:11,100 --> 00:14:08,110 he may know other things but he can't 339 00:14:12,870 --> 00:14:11,110 divulge that but he still has to go down 340 00:14:15,210 --> 00:14:12,880 this this course and try to find 341 00:14:18,630 --> 00:14:15,220 information even though he might already 342 00:14:20,430 --> 00:14:18,640 have the information so you know he's 343 00:14:23,430 --> 00:14:20,440 self identifying that that's a problem 344 00:14:25,860 --> 00:14:23,440 but it is kind of a confusing problem 345 00:14:27,960 --> 00:14:25,870 right this is the lead investigator on 346 00:14:30,150 --> 00:14:27,970 this show leading the viewer through 347 00:14:33,510 --> 00:14:30,160 this quest but at the same time he's 348 00:14:36,300 --> 00:14:33,520 kind of saying yeah I've done this and I 349 00:14:38,550 --> 00:14:36,310 kind of know some answers yeah I thought 350 00:14:40,710 --> 00:14:38,560 that was fascinating in fact he kind of 351 00:14:43,770 --> 00:14:40,720 got a little emotional I think along 352 00:14:48,000 --> 00:14:43,780 with that and you know but you know I 353 00:14:50,490 --> 00:14:48,010 think the the explanation for that that 354 00:14:53,400 --> 00:14:50,500 that to me it hit home and I thought was 355 00:14:56,820 --> 00:14:53,410 very reasonable and solid was was that 356 00:14:59,550 --> 00:14:56,830 what their effort really is is an effort 357 00:15:02,940 --> 00:14:59,560 to get Congress to listen to these 358 00:15:04,350 --> 00:15:02,950 accounts and when when he he was 359 00:15:06,630 --> 00:15:04,360 speaking there Chris Mellon they're 360 00:15:09,780 --> 00:15:06,640 explaining that you know this is a 361 00:15:11,820 --> 00:15:09,790 system and you have to work within the 362 00:15:14,730 --> 00:15:11,830 framework of that system so you just 363 00:15:17,280 --> 00:15:14,740 can't go thrown out the alien thing all 364 00:15:20,310 --> 00:15:17,290 the time you know you yet you know 365 00:15:22,580 --> 00:15:20,320 there's a specific way and specific 366 00:15:25,530 --> 00:15:22,590 words that you use when you approach 367 00:15:27,960 --> 00:15:25,540 Congress and these people so that you 368 00:15:31,350 --> 00:15:27,970 don't look crazy right that you're not 369 00:15:33,180 --> 00:15:31,360 violating your security oath but that 370 00:15:36,630 --> 00:15:33,190 you're bringing forth you know good 371 00:15:38,910 --> 00:15:36,640 witnesses and good data data and I think 372 00:15:40,380 --> 00:15:38,920 even one of the pilots said it was 373 00:15:43,740 --> 00:15:40,390 graves that you know he wants to 374 00:15:45,810 --> 00:15:43,750 communicate to to Congress that you know 375 00:15:48,480 --> 00:15:45,820 I'm bringing you the facts of the things 376 00:15:50,670 --> 00:15:48,490 that I saw I'm bringing you the data I'm 377 00:15:53,100 --> 00:15:50,680 not giving you an opinion on what it was 378 00:15:54,720 --> 00:15:53,110 and you you need to make that decision 379 00:15:56,160 --> 00:15:54,730 you know so I thought that was really 380 00:15:58,320 --> 00:15:56,170 good explaining why 381 00:16:01,560 --> 00:15:58,330 they're tippy-toeing all around this 382 00:16:04,020 --> 00:16:01,570 thing it's because the ultimate goal is 383 00:16:06,180 --> 00:16:04,030 to get Congress to take some action and 384 00:16:08,970 --> 00:16:06,190 to do that you just got it you got to 385 00:16:10,980 --> 00:16:08,980 work within the framework of the system 386 00:16:14,490 --> 00:16:10,990 so I really thought that was an 387 00:16:17,430 --> 00:16:14,500 excellent explanation right and we saw 388 00:16:19,010 --> 00:16:17,440 mellon bring up a point that we've made 389 00:16:24,060 --> 00:16:19,020 on a previous episode and that is 390 00:16:25,500 --> 00:16:24,070 Congress is the place you go to when you 391 00:16:28,860 --> 00:16:25,510 want money right there that there the 392 00:16:31,340 --> 00:16:28,870 cheque writers so you know to get things 393 00:16:34,140 --> 00:16:31,350 done you've got to convince Congress and 394 00:16:35,550 --> 00:16:34,150 this is the whole funny thing to like 395 00:16:38,730 --> 00:16:35,560 try to wrap your head around in this 396 00:16:41,540 --> 00:16:38,740 whole unraveling or trying to unravel 397 00:16:46,020 --> 00:16:41,550 this mystery and that is keep in mind 398 00:16:48,030 --> 00:16:46,030 according to Lou and other people 399 00:16:50,460 --> 00:16:48,040 involved the Pentagon is still running 400 00:16:52,230 --> 00:16:50,470 its UFO program so yeah they already 401 00:16:55,800 --> 00:16:52,240 have people on the inside who are 402 00:16:57,480 --> 00:16:55,810 looking into the UFOs and they're 403 00:17:01,830 --> 00:16:57,490 already aware of it they're already 404 00:17:04,560 --> 00:17:01,840 doing whatever they're doing so you know 405 00:17:06,630 --> 00:17:04,570 that's interesting but yeah we're doing 406 00:17:09,329 --> 00:17:06,640 this end around trying to get Congress 407 00:17:12,210 --> 00:17:09,339 to do something that maybe is different 408 00:17:15,170 --> 00:17:12,220 from what the Pentagon's are doing well 409 00:17:17,970 --> 00:17:15,180 yeah it's it's really to move it from 410 00:17:20,189 --> 00:17:17,980 secrecy to public right that I mean that 411 00:17:21,449 --> 00:17:20,199 that's that's that the real effort and 412 00:17:23,400 --> 00:17:21,459 that's probably what Lou is talking 413 00:17:25,620 --> 00:17:23,410 about when he's saying you know I know 414 00:17:27,990 --> 00:17:25,630 things I can't divulge I mean it's the 415 00:17:30,780 --> 00:17:28,000 secret part or sensitive or whatever 416 00:17:33,510 --> 00:17:30,790 term you want to use that you just can't 417 00:17:35,220 --> 00:17:33,520 blurt out yet and even within Congress 418 00:17:37,650 --> 00:17:35,230 you've got to bring those people along 419 00:17:39,600 --> 00:17:37,660 carefully so and then you know the other 420 00:17:40,800 --> 00:17:39,610 thing that was kind of interesting is we 421 00:17:43,650 --> 00:17:40,810 got to see a little more of that 422 00:17:46,100 --> 00:17:43,660 Steve justice I'm thinking yep that's a 423 00:17:48,780 --> 00:17:46,110 serious dude right there just his whole 424 00:17:51,180 --> 00:17:48,790 mannerism and and the way he was 425 00:17:53,370 --> 00:17:51,190 speaking you know and he impressed me as 426 00:17:56,760 --> 00:17:53,380 a guy that you know he knows some stuff 427 00:17:59,130 --> 00:17:56,770 - oh absolutely he does yeah I loved 428 00:18:00,960 --> 00:17:59,140 when when I see these - justice come on 429 00:18:04,200 --> 00:18:00,970 this Korean well oh yay talk to that guy 430 00:18:05,470 --> 00:18:04,210 more yeah he's serious as a heart attack 431 00:18:08,350 --> 00:18:05,480 but you know 432 00:18:10,539 --> 00:18:08,360 I like I like to the way that the their 433 00:18:12,430 --> 00:18:10,549 conversation went the work we're at 434 00:18:14,669 --> 00:18:12,440 first are kind of talking about the 435 00:18:18,190 --> 00:18:14,679 possibility of this being you know 436 00:18:19,899 --> 00:18:18,200 American or Chinese or Russian and you 437 00:18:21,610 --> 00:18:19,909 know we can't discount that possibility 438 00:18:24,340 --> 00:18:21,620 and they kind of flirt with that for a 439 00:18:26,169 --> 00:18:24,350 minute or two but then they they you 440 00:18:28,990 --> 00:18:26,179 know kind of flip it around say but you 441 00:18:30,850 --> 00:18:29,000 know really the evidence suggests that 442 00:18:32,860 --> 00:18:30,860 that's not the case in fact I think Lou 443 00:18:35,440 --> 00:18:32,870 even said look the Russians and in 444 00:18:37,360 --> 00:18:35,450 Chinese they're in the same boat we are 445 00:18:39,190 --> 00:18:37,370 we don't know what this is 446 00:18:41,620 --> 00:18:39,200 so yeah but that that was kind of a cool 447 00:18:44,169 --> 00:18:41,630 little clue right there right but at the 448 00:18:47,529 --> 00:18:44,179 same time we're seeing them float that 449 00:18:49,269 --> 00:18:47,539 more and more I am noticing that that 450 00:18:52,120 --> 00:18:49,279 they're they're bringing up the the 451 00:18:54,639 --> 00:18:52,130 terrestrial explanation more and more 452 00:18:56,169 --> 00:18:54,649 and so are the mainstream articles that 453 00:18:59,950 --> 00:18:56,179 we're seeing pushed out in conjunction 454 00:19:01,930 --> 00:18:59,960 with us and so that is interesting so 455 00:19:04,750 --> 00:19:01,940 we'll keep an eye on that and also 456 00:19:07,899 --> 00:19:04,760 something else too is you know it's 457 00:19:10,750 --> 00:19:07,909 interesting hearing the stories that 458 00:19:13,509 --> 00:19:10,760 came especially from from Danny from 459 00:19:18,299 --> 00:19:13,519 lieutenant coin that you know at least 460 00:19:21,789 --> 00:19:18,309 according to him a lot of people aboard 461 00:19:24,460 --> 00:19:21,799 ship were aware of these UFOs and he 462 00:19:26,379 --> 00:19:24,470 even comments about an admiral who 463 00:19:29,769 --> 00:19:26,389 allegedly came in and watched one of the 464 00:19:32,500 --> 00:19:29,779 videos and was sort of unimpressed or 465 00:19:36,490 --> 00:19:32,510 unfazed like credible and then walked 466 00:19:37,899 --> 00:19:36,500 out yeah so I mean that to me and 467 00:19:40,090 --> 00:19:37,909 especially if these things are happening 468 00:19:42,789 --> 00:19:40,100 on a daily basis with you know multiple 469 00:19:45,669 --> 00:19:42,799 objects and all of your pilots and stuff 470 00:19:48,879 --> 00:19:45,679 and people all over these vessels know 471 00:19:51,190 --> 00:19:48,889 about these objects that tells me that 472 00:19:53,159 --> 00:19:51,200 you know the Navy it's not a not an 473 00:19:55,419 --> 00:19:53,169 issue of pilots not coming forward to 474 00:19:56,860 --> 00:19:55,429 divulge these things it seems like 475 00:19:59,320 --> 00:19:56,870 they're very well aware that they're 476 00:20:01,659 --> 00:19:59,330 there and they just don't care yeah yeah 477 00:20:03,610 --> 00:20:01,669 and I think um I mean honestly this is 478 00:20:06,519 --> 00:20:03,620 kind of just personally my take on that 479 00:20:11,560 --> 00:20:06,529 whole why they keep pushing that is is 480 00:20:14,529 --> 00:20:11,570 again to you know not not run up the 481 00:20:17,409 --> 00:20:14,539 stigma flag but just you know give 482 00:20:17,830 --> 00:20:17,419 people and out you know congressman and 483 00:20:19,899 --> 00:20:17,840 Millett 484 00:20:22,659 --> 00:20:19,909 arian intelligence officials by 485 00:20:25,659 --> 00:20:22,669 continuing to say you know threat and 486 00:20:29,140 --> 00:20:25,669 could be you know Chinese or Russian or 487 00:20:32,019 --> 00:20:29,150 our own that gives people some cover to 488 00:20:33,880 --> 00:20:32,029 to go ahead and openly consider this a 489 00:20:36,460 --> 00:20:33,890 possibility you know I'm saying it's 490 00:20:39,419 --> 00:20:36,470 like it's a safe way it's working within 491 00:20:43,000 --> 00:20:39,429 that framework and that system however 492 00:20:47,039 --> 00:20:43,010 it is curious to me as when the point 493 00:20:49,960 --> 00:20:47,049 comes when that no longer works because 494 00:20:52,870 --> 00:20:49,970 you know that so much data so many 495 00:20:55,299 --> 00:20:52,880 people come forward that the that 496 00:20:57,639 --> 00:20:55,309 explanation is not going to work like 497 00:21:00,310 --> 00:20:57,649 that it'll be interesting to see where 498 00:21:02,529 --> 00:21:00,320 this whole thing goes it will be and you 499 00:21:05,230 --> 00:21:02,539 know I like this approach I really do 500 00:21:08,799 --> 00:21:05,240 but I also have to keep in mind you know 501 00:21:10,389 --> 00:21:08,809 I have a little little bit of fear that 502 00:21:12,669 --> 00:21:10,399 this could all backfire 503 00:21:16,600 --> 00:21:12,679 oh yeah right because I mean if it does 504 00:21:18,460 --> 00:21:16,610 come out that the Navy says hey just 505 00:21:20,380 --> 00:21:18,470 kidding that was our technology we were 506 00:21:22,210 --> 00:21:20,390 testing this you know secret radar 507 00:21:23,950 --> 00:21:22,220 reflecting technology and that's why it 508 00:21:26,110 --> 00:21:23,960 was at all of our test sites and 509 00:21:28,840 --> 00:21:26,120 following the ships and everything like 510 00:21:30,789 --> 00:21:28,850 and we were just testing how it would 511 00:21:33,730 --> 00:21:30,799 work number one with our technology and 512 00:21:36,220 --> 00:21:33,740 what kind of reaction our own people 513 00:21:38,110 --> 00:21:36,230 would have and you know to this stuff if 514 00:21:41,639 --> 00:21:38,120 that all comes out after all of this 515 00:21:44,230 --> 00:21:41,649 effort that could do more harm than good 516 00:21:45,639 --> 00:21:44,240 building up UFOs and trying to get 517 00:21:47,560 --> 00:21:45,649 people to take it seriously and 518 00:21:49,630 --> 00:21:47,570 demonstrating that there's you know 519 00:21:52,149 --> 00:21:49,640 otherworldly technology at play here 520 00:21:54,940 --> 00:21:52,159 then only to have them say yeah that's 521 00:21:57,310 --> 00:21:54,950 us then that balloon is deflated and I 522 00:22:01,210 --> 00:21:57,320 don't yeah get back up after that no and 523 00:22:03,130 --> 00:22:01,220 that's a right out of the 1953 Robertson 524 00:22:05,350 --> 00:22:03,140 panel playbook yeah absolutely it is 525 00:22:07,779 --> 00:22:05,360 yeah and they've been doing it for 70 526 00:22:10,090 --> 00:22:07,789 years so yeah I don't want to be a 527 00:22:13,419 --> 00:22:10,100 pessimist so I mean optimistic 528 00:22:15,820 --> 00:22:13,429 yeah I agree but you know even if that 529 00:22:18,310 --> 00:22:15,830 does happen the so many seeds have been 530 00:22:22,149 --> 00:22:18,320 planted in so many new people a whole 531 00:22:24,990 --> 00:22:22,159 new generation you know i it won't ever 532 00:22:27,430 --> 00:22:25,000 go away and that if it's if they are 533 00:22:29,799 --> 00:22:27,440 UFOs that there's if there's someone 534 00:22:31,779 --> 00:22:29,809 else they have a say-so to you 535 00:22:35,469 --> 00:22:31,789 absolutely and that's why you know I 536 00:22:37,359 --> 00:22:35,479 really hope people do understand and pay 537 00:22:42,159 --> 00:22:37,369 more attention and and do more research 538 00:22:44,529 --> 00:22:42,169 and understand that it's not just the 539 00:22:46,959 --> 00:22:44,539 military right it's not just maybe 540 00:22:49,989 --> 00:22:46,969 fighter pilots seeing this it's people 541 00:22:51,849 --> 00:22:49,999 all over the world every day seeing 542 00:22:54,609 --> 00:22:51,859 strange things in the sky that can't 543 00:22:58,149 --> 00:22:54,619 explain this is a global thing that 544 00:22:59,469 --> 00:22:58,159 happens to absolutely everybody so even 545 00:23:01,509 --> 00:22:59,479 if the military comes up with an 546 00:23:04,359 --> 00:23:01,519 explanation for what they've been 547 00:23:06,549 --> 00:23:04,369 pushing in three videos that were 548 00:23:08,950 --> 00:23:06,559 released by the Pentagon that doesn't 549 00:23:11,169 --> 00:23:08,960 mean that all UFOs are after s real 550 00:23:14,739 --> 00:23:11,179 origin ya can't just wipe that away 551 00:23:16,810 --> 00:23:14,749 right it'd be probably the equivalent a 552 00:23:19,389 --> 00:23:16,820 modern-day equivalent of the whole swamp 553 00:23:20,469 --> 00:23:19,399 gas thing yeah that's right I think 554 00:23:21,820 --> 00:23:20,479 you're absolutely right 555 00:23:23,769 --> 00:23:21,830 it's not gonna happen Shane we're gonna 556 00:23:26,349 --> 00:23:23,779 keep our fingers crossed that's
