--> 00:01:01,440 that saw the light of day last week 23 00:01:04,789 --> 00:01:03,199 of course we're talking about the ufo 24 00:01:06,070 --> 00:01:04,799 report from the office of the director 25 00:01:07,670 --> 00:01:06,080 of national intelligence 26 00:01:09,109 --> 00:01:07,680 the one that was requested by the senate 27 00:01:10,070 --> 00:01:09,119 select committee on intelligence last 28 00:01:12,230 --> 00:01:10,080 summer 29 00:01:14,070 --> 00:01:12,240 a classified version of this report was 30 00:01:14,950 --> 00:01:14,080 delivered to congress on friday june 31 00:01:16,870 --> 00:01:14,960 25th 32 00:01:19,350 --> 00:01:16,880 and the unclassified version was also 33 00:01:21,590 --> 00:01:19,360 released to the public on that same day 34 00:01:24,149 --> 00:01:21,600 the report officially titled preliminary 35 00:01:26,950 --> 00:01:24,159 report unidentified aerial phenomena 36 00:01:29,190 --> 00:01:26,960 is just nine concise pages but there's 37 00:01:30,950 --> 00:01:29,200 plenty of good information in this thing 38 00:01:32,469 --> 00:01:30,960 we'll talk about some specific items in 39 00:01:34,630 --> 00:01:32,479 the report but 40 00:01:35,910 --> 00:01:34,640 before we do i want to give us all an 41 00:01:38,710 --> 00:01:35,920 opportunity to share 42 00:01:40,550 --> 00:01:38,720 our individual initial reactions to 43 00:01:43,270 --> 00:01:40,560 reading this ufo report 44 00:01:44,870 --> 00:01:43,280 so ryan why don't you start uh what did 45 00:01:46,870 --> 00:01:44,880 you think buddy after 46 00:01:48,069 --> 00:01:46,880 reading this thing for the first time 47 00:01:50,069 --> 00:01:48,079 yeah i mean 48 00:01:51,910 --> 00:01:50,079 you know everyone's kind of comparing it 49 00:01:53,590 --> 00:01:51,920 to christmas like we are waiting 50 00:01:56,069 --> 00:01:53,600 it's like christmas eve waiting to open 51 00:01:59,429 --> 00:01:56,079 the present and then the present came 52 00:02:00,389 --> 00:01:59,439 and i will say you know the first time i 53 00:02:02,950 --> 00:02:00,399 read it 54 00:02:04,630 --> 00:02:02,960 it was kind of like i i keep to 55 00:02:07,429 --> 00:02:04,640 comparing it to like 56 00:02:08,229 --> 00:02:07,439 you wanted a playstation 5 and you got a 57 00:02:11,350 --> 00:02:08,239 cartridge 58 00:02:13,030 --> 00:02:11,360 to like an atari or something and the 59 00:02:16,869 --> 00:02:13,040 first time i read it 60 00:02:17,990 --> 00:02:16,879 i was like okay one was a cover page one 61 00:02:20,470 --> 00:02:18,000 was an appendix 62 00:02:21,350 --> 00:02:20,480 so really it was like seven pages of 63 00:02:24,710 --> 00:02:21,360 material 64 00:02:25,589 --> 00:02:24,720 but initial reactions uh i felt pretty 65 00:02:27,750 --> 00:02:25,599 deflated 66 00:02:29,910 --> 00:02:27,760 and let down and i sure will get into 67 00:02:31,110 --> 00:02:29,920 you know upon reading in a second or 68 00:02:33,589 --> 00:02:31,120 third or fourth time 69 00:02:34,229 --> 00:02:33,599 you start to really find some nuggets in 70 00:02:36,790 --> 00:02:34,239 there 71 00:02:37,509 --> 00:02:36,800 and i'll say right now at least fast 72 00:02:39,030 --> 00:02:37,519 forward 73 00:02:40,630 --> 00:02:39,040 i feel pretty damn good about it i 74 00:02:41,350 --> 00:02:40,640 thought there was some some good stuff 75 00:02:44,309 --> 00:02:41,360 in there 76 00:02:46,229 --> 00:02:44,319 um so yeah at first you know atari 77 00:02:48,869 --> 00:02:46,239 cartridge but now i'm at like uh 78 00:02:49,990 --> 00:02:48,879 maybe a super nintendo sega genesis 79 00:02:51,750 --> 00:02:50,000 maybe 80 00:02:52,949 --> 00:02:51,760 nice moving up yeah how about you 81 00:02:54,470 --> 00:02:52,959 maureen what do you think about this i 82 00:02:56,070 --> 00:02:54,480 think there's nothing surprising for 83 00:02:59,110 --> 00:02:56,080 most of us in here i 84 00:03:01,270 --> 00:02:59,120 had very very low expectations so 85 00:03:03,589 --> 00:03:01,280 um to me this is a lot of stuff we 86 00:03:07,509 --> 00:03:03,599 already knew was going on or happening 87 00:03:07,910 --> 00:03:07,519 but there are some some positive things 88 00:03:09,750 --> 00:03:07,920 that 89 00:03:11,190 --> 00:03:09,760 are you know the government's 90 00:03:14,550 --> 00:03:11,200 recognizing that 91 00:03:16,550 --> 00:03:14,560 yes this centralized reporting is super 92 00:03:18,149 --> 00:03:16,560 needed from different organizations and 93 00:03:21,030 --> 00:03:18,159 they need to get their act together 94 00:03:22,229 --> 00:03:21,040 i mean we've been slowly reporting not 95 00:03:25,509 --> 00:03:22,239 just in the government 96 00:03:27,110 --> 00:03:25,519 about when official organizations or you 97 00:03:28,630 --> 00:03:27,120 know like 98 00:03:31,270 --> 00:03:28,640 i don't remember what it was like the 99 00:03:33,030 --> 00:03:31,280 fire department of 100 00:03:35,110 --> 00:03:33,040 somewhere that all of a sudden they'll 101 00:03:38,070 --> 00:03:35,120 start adding in little 102 00:03:40,070 --> 00:03:38,080 clips that that are how to report on on 103 00:03:42,390 --> 00:03:40,080 ufos or uav 104 00:03:43,750 --> 00:03:42,400 um so this is good and it's a positive 105 00:03:45,750 --> 00:03:43,760 move forward 106 00:03:46,949 --> 00:03:45,760 from what we're seeing now and again as 107 00:03:50,949 --> 00:03:46,959 you mentioned 108 00:03:54,710 --> 00:03:50,959 we we got seven pages of content 109 00:03:57,190 --> 00:03:54,720 they got a lot more that went in depth 110 00:03:58,309 --> 00:03:57,200 um and when i first read it i was 111 00:03:59,670 --> 00:03:58,319 waiting i was 112 00:04:01,429 --> 00:03:59,680 when they start talking about the 113 00:04:01,910 --> 00:04:01,439 different things they've decided you 114 00:04:04,229 --> 00:04:01,920 know 115 00:04:05,110 --> 00:04:04,239 there's going to be these five sections 116 00:04:06,789 --> 00:04:05,120 uh 117 00:04:08,630 --> 00:04:06,799 that they believe that they're going to 118 00:04:10,710 --> 00:04:08,640 be able to categorize 119 00:04:11,830 --> 00:04:10,720 everything and that's including the 120 00:04:15,030 --> 00:04:11,840 mysterious other 121 00:04:17,430 --> 00:04:15,040 obviously which is where 122 00:04:18,949 --> 00:04:17,440 traditional uip reporting of what if 123 00:04:19,670 --> 00:04:18,959 it's extraterrestrial in nature will 124 00:04:22,230 --> 00:04:19,680 fall 125 00:04:23,510 --> 00:04:22,240 however i kept waiting for i saw a 126 00:04:24,790 --> 00:04:23,520 natural atmospheric 127 00:04:26,870 --> 00:04:24,800 phenomenon and i was like where's the 128 00:04:29,270 --> 00:04:26,880 small gas and uh 129 00:04:30,629 --> 00:04:29,280 instead i got instead i got ice crystals 130 00:04:37,670 --> 00:04:30,639 so 131 00:04:40,310 --> 00:04:37,680 like ryan said 132 00:04:42,150 --> 00:04:40,320 there are some little nuggets in there i 133 00:04:44,390 --> 00:04:42,160 think one of the most exciting 134 00:04:45,590 --> 00:04:44,400 things is they're realizing hey we can 135 00:04:49,350 --> 00:04:45,600 use machine learning 136 00:04:52,310 --> 00:04:49,360 and ai to our benefit to 137 00:04:52,710 --> 00:04:52,320 try to begin to learn and categorize 138 00:04:55,590 --> 00:04:52,720 about 139 00:04:56,390 --> 00:04:55,600 reports and understand what's happening 140 00:04:59,350 --> 00:04:56,400 and 141 00:05:00,230 --> 00:04:59,360 i think by you know how how crazy 142 00:05:02,790 --> 00:05:00,240 machine learning 143 00:05:03,830 --> 00:05:02,800 ai is that we may be able to come up 144 00:05:06,310 --> 00:05:03,840 with some sort of 145 00:05:07,830 --> 00:05:06,320 graph that helps us learn and explain 146 00:05:10,870 --> 00:05:07,840 what some of these 147 00:05:13,029 --> 00:05:10,880 objects might be 148 00:05:14,070 --> 00:05:13,039 yeah very cool how about you shane what 149 00:05:15,830 --> 00:05:14,080 were your initial 150 00:05:17,510 --> 00:05:15,840 thoughts or reactions to reading this 151 00:05:19,830 --> 00:05:17,520 report 152 00:05:21,189 --> 00:05:19,840 yeah i think it's you know what we all 153 00:05:25,749 --> 00:05:21,199 expected it to be 154 00:05:28,550 --> 00:05:25,759 it was you know fairly political 155 00:05:29,430 --> 00:05:28,560 it had a little bit of technical to it 156 00:05:32,870 --> 00:05:29,440 it was really 157 00:05:36,469 --> 00:05:32,880 written in a way i think for the public 158 00:05:38,230 --> 00:05:36,479 to consume it as well as for political 159 00:05:40,390 --> 00:05:38,240 leaders to consume that 160 00:05:41,909 --> 00:05:40,400 even the public version and i was 161 00:05:45,350 --> 00:05:41,919 actually thrilled 162 00:05:48,310 --> 00:05:45,360 in that i i had the scary thought 163 00:05:49,990 --> 00:05:48,320 a la blue book that they would come out 164 00:05:52,550 --> 00:05:50,000 and pull the rug out from us 165 00:05:53,189 --> 00:05:52,560 under us and say we've identified all of 166 00:05:55,350 --> 00:05:53,199 this it's 167 00:05:56,950 --> 00:05:55,360 ours it's blah blah blah you know i i 168 00:06:00,150 --> 00:05:56,960 have expected that 169 00:06:01,510 --> 00:06:00,160 so i'm pretty pleased that um with what 170 00:06:03,189 --> 00:06:01,520 they presented 171 00:06:05,189 --> 00:06:03,199 i mean it was really about you know 172 00:06:08,550 --> 00:06:05,199 setting up a um 173 00:06:11,909 --> 00:06:08,560 you know an institutionalized effort to 174 00:06:13,430 --> 00:06:11,919 you know investigate and analyze and 175 00:06:14,150 --> 00:06:13,440 report and do all those things which is 176 00:06:15,990 --> 00:06:14,160 great 177 00:06:17,430 --> 00:06:16,000 i you know i felt like it was written in 178 00:06:19,670 --> 00:06:17,440 a way that they were 179 00:06:21,029 --> 00:06:19,680 they were doing exactly what the bill 180 00:06:23,749 --> 00:06:21,039 asked them to do 181 00:06:25,029 --> 00:06:23,759 no more no less you know it was it just 182 00:06:26,790 --> 00:06:25,039 seemed very careful 183 00:06:28,629 --> 00:06:26,800 carefully done which you know that 184 00:06:32,150 --> 00:06:28,639 that's reasonable fair enough 185 00:06:32,629 --> 00:06:32,160 um but i too thought there were a lot of 186 00:06:35,909 --> 00:06:32,639 things 187 00:06:37,990 --> 00:06:35,919 in there that were of value 188 00:06:39,749 --> 00:06:38,000 and it was it was one of those documents 189 00:06:41,189 --> 00:06:39,759 where i felt like there was as much said 190 00:06:44,070 --> 00:06:41,199 between the lines 191 00:06:44,390 --> 00:06:44,080 than what was actually stated and so i 192 00:06:48,070 --> 00:06:44,400 think 193 00:06:51,029 --> 00:06:48,080 you know we we should be fairly 194 00:06:52,309 --> 00:06:51,039 you know pleased with it i mean it was 195 00:06:54,469 --> 00:06:52,319 light on technical i 196 00:06:55,990 --> 00:06:54,479 i was i was really confounded in the 197 00:06:58,390 --> 00:06:56,000 fact that they didn't really 198 00:06:59,749 --> 00:06:58,400 provide any case data the only reference 199 00:07:02,309 --> 00:06:59,759 to cases was 200 00:07:03,430 --> 00:07:02,319 we looked at this body between 2004 and 201 00:07:06,550 --> 00:07:03,440 2021 202 00:07:08,230 --> 00:07:06,560 and one case was a balloon okay 203 00:07:10,230 --> 00:07:08,240 that when i read that at first i'm like 204 00:07:11,749 --> 00:07:10,240 oh no and then the other thing that 205 00:07:12,390 --> 00:07:11,759 bothers me we'll talk more about it 206 00:07:14,469 --> 00:07:12,400 later 207 00:07:15,749 --> 00:07:14,479 is that other category and i'll tell you 208 00:07:18,309 --> 00:07:15,759 why from an i.t 209 00:07:19,189 --> 00:07:18,319 perspective but but you know overall i'm 210 00:07:21,110 --> 00:07:19,199 pleased with it 211 00:07:23,670 --> 00:07:21,120 it's a good first step i think it's a 212 00:07:26,070 --> 00:07:23,680 baby step and boy i would love to see 213 00:07:29,350 --> 00:07:26,080 the classified version because 214 00:07:30,790 --> 00:07:29,360 hopefully i hope that they provided real 215 00:07:33,510 --> 00:07:30,800 data in there that 216 00:07:35,749 --> 00:07:33,520 that will paint the correct picture uh 217 00:07:36,469 --> 00:07:35,759 for the for the decision makers those in 218 00:07:39,830 --> 00:07:36,479 congress 219 00:07:41,430 --> 00:07:39,840 etc absolutely and i i agree with with 220 00:07:43,350 --> 00:07:41,440 all of your reactions i mean that's 221 00:07:44,869 --> 00:07:43,360 basically what how i reacted as well 222 00:07:47,029 --> 00:07:44,879 reading this um 223 00:07:48,720 --> 00:07:47,039 we'll say it was again went in with low 224 00:07:50,070 --> 00:07:48,730 expectations and came out 225 00:07:53,430 --> 00:07:50,080 [Music] 226 00:07:55,430 --> 00:07:53,440 very uh it surprised myself but uh 227 00:07:56,629 --> 00:07:55,440 pleasantly surprised it was certainly 228 00:07:59,189 --> 00:07:56,639 not what i was expecting 229 00:08:00,550 --> 00:07:59,199 at all a lot of good things in here 230 00:08:03,029 --> 00:08:00,560 certainly a lot a lot missing 231 00:08:03,749 --> 00:08:03,039 as you pointed out shane but let's go 232 00:08:05,990 --> 00:08:03,759 through some of the 233 00:08:07,270 --> 00:08:06,000 some of the you know notable things in 234 00:08:10,150 --> 00:08:07,280 this report 235 00:08:11,670 --> 00:08:10,160 um and i do like how you mentioned that 236 00:08:13,350 --> 00:08:11,680 it seemed like it was 237 00:08:14,790 --> 00:08:13,360 you know it's not technical at all 238 00:08:17,189 --> 00:08:14,800 written for the public 239 00:08:18,230 --> 00:08:17,199 and that is very clear certainly by the 240 00:08:20,950 --> 00:08:18,240 fact that 241 00:08:22,869 --> 00:08:20,960 they published this thing to the public 242 00:08:24,950 --> 00:08:22,879 on the same day it was released 243 00:08:26,869 --> 00:08:24,960 you know the same day they they sent it 244 00:08:29,430 --> 00:08:26,879 to to congress 245 00:08:30,309 --> 00:08:29,440 um that was surprising to me because 246 00:08:31,830 --> 00:08:30,319 again 247 00:08:34,389 --> 00:08:31,840 there was a lot of hype and a lot of 248 00:08:36,230 --> 00:08:34,399 expectations built up with no foundation 249 00:08:37,670 --> 00:08:36,240 no basis for assuming this was going to 250 00:08:39,909 --> 00:08:37,680 be released to the public 251 00:08:42,310 --> 00:08:39,919 because all it said was there should be 252 00:08:44,070 --> 00:08:42,320 an unclassified version of this report 253 00:08:46,070 --> 00:08:44,080 that doesn't mean public we know that 254 00:08:47,750 --> 00:08:46,080 but it was released and published to the 255 00:08:49,350 --> 00:08:47,760 public that exact same day so i think it 256 00:08:52,829 --> 00:08:49,360 was written for the public 257 00:08:56,470 --> 00:08:52,839 um interesting point number one 258 00:08:59,269 --> 00:08:56,480 um the data gatherers catch a 259 00:08:59,590 --> 00:08:59,279 very much uh wider net than was asked 260 00:09:02,389 --> 00:08:59,600 for 261 00:09:02,870 --> 00:09:02,399 by the report which you know was one of 262 00:09:05,590 --> 00:09:02,880 my 263 00:09:06,790 --> 00:09:05,600 uh very big problem points with the 264 00:09:10,230 --> 00:09:06,800 report request 265 00:09:13,350 --> 00:09:10,240 it just asks for basically navy data 266 00:09:14,949 --> 00:09:13,360 and fbi data which if you really want to 267 00:09:16,310 --> 00:09:14,959 look at the whole picture of ufos and 268 00:09:18,150 --> 00:09:16,320 try to figure this thing out 269 00:09:19,590 --> 00:09:18,160 that's not really doing it it's not 270 00:09:22,710 --> 00:09:19,600 going to get you very far 271 00:09:23,269 --> 00:09:22,720 but in for this report the the navy and 272 00:09:26,310 --> 00:09:23,279 fbi 273 00:09:27,350 --> 00:09:26,320 uh deity was there sure plus army air 274 00:09:30,550 --> 00:09:27,360 force nsa 275 00:09:33,350 --> 00:09:30,560 darpa the faa and many more agencies 276 00:09:34,470 --> 00:09:33,360 so that was great to see but still with 277 00:09:39,590 --> 00:09:34,480 this added data 278 00:09:43,110 --> 00:09:39,600 the focus really still was only on 144 279 00:09:45,110 --> 00:09:43,120 recent military sightings so 280 00:09:46,310 --> 00:09:45,120 still a long way to go but with that 281 00:09:47,910 --> 00:09:46,320 large data pool 282 00:09:50,310 --> 00:09:47,920 i don't know about you guys but that was 283 00:09:52,389 --> 00:09:50,320 a very pleasant surprise 284 00:09:54,070 --> 00:09:52,399 uh i i was just gonna say you know one 285 00:09:55,509 --> 00:09:54,080 thing there there were all these 286 00:09:59,110 --> 00:09:55,519 different agencies and i 287 00:10:02,630 --> 00:09:59,120 100 understand why it's 288 00:10:03,990 --> 00:10:02,640 more limited to situations of like 289 00:10:06,710 --> 00:10:04,000 trained aviation pilots 290 00:10:08,470 --> 00:10:06,720 and things like that or or out there but 291 00:10:11,509 --> 00:10:08,480 i really would 292 00:10:14,949 --> 00:10:11,519 like this to include the nps too 293 00:10:16,310 --> 00:10:14,959 i mean national parks are a source of 294 00:10:17,910 --> 00:10:16,320 high strangeness 295 00:10:19,990 --> 00:10:17,920 that we know that there's a lot of 296 00:10:22,230 --> 00:10:20,000 unidentified objects 297 00:10:23,750 --> 00:10:22,240 that people spot out there and that's a 298 00:10:25,430 --> 00:10:23,760 government organization 299 00:10:27,670 --> 00:10:25,440 i would like to see data from that as 300 00:10:29,190 --> 00:10:27,680 well and a few others i'm not saying 301 00:10:30,710 --> 00:10:29,200 that that's not necessarily something 302 00:10:35,430 --> 00:10:30,720 they've considered but 303 00:10:38,550 --> 00:10:35,440 um it was notable to me missing 304 00:10:41,110 --> 00:10:38,560 interesting yeah i i i think to 305 00:10:42,710 --> 00:10:41,120 the the two that i really wanted to hear 306 00:10:45,990 --> 00:10:42,720 from that weren't in there were 307 00:10:47,990 --> 00:10:46,000 nasa and um the doe 308 00:10:49,190 --> 00:10:48,000 like we hear that a lot of these things 309 00:10:51,829 --> 00:10:49,200 are you know 310 00:10:54,150 --> 00:10:51,839 sent to the doe when it comes to nuclear 311 00:10:55,190 --> 00:10:54,160 incidents with incursions over nuclear 312 00:10:57,269 --> 00:10:55,200 installations 313 00:10:58,790 --> 00:10:57,279 so i wasn't surprised it wasn't there 314 00:11:00,150 --> 00:10:58,800 because they don't really answer to 315 00:11:02,150 --> 00:11:00,160 anyone apparently 316 00:11:03,190 --> 00:11:02,160 um but i was hoping that there would be 317 00:11:05,990 --> 00:11:03,200 some sort of 318 00:11:07,110 --> 00:11:06,000 integration with nasa which maybe we'll 319 00:11:09,030 --> 00:11:07,120 get in the future 320 00:11:10,230 --> 00:11:09,040 i don't know but i think they're they 321 00:11:12,550 --> 00:11:10,240 need to be 322 00:11:13,990 --> 00:11:12,560 briefed on these things they it's their 323 00:11:16,389 --> 00:11:14,000 job to know what's in our 324 00:11:17,269 --> 00:11:16,399 skies and what's going on on our planet 325 00:11:19,190 --> 00:11:17,279 so um 326 00:11:21,350 --> 00:11:19,200 i think yeah while i was i was surprised 327 00:11:23,750 --> 00:11:21,360 darpa was there i was let down 328 00:11:24,870 --> 00:11:23,760 that the d.o.e or nasa's are much more 329 00:11:35,829 --> 00:11:24,880 logical 330 00:11:39,269 --> 00:11:38,790 uh i was thinking too that in in the 331 00:11:42,470 --> 00:11:39,279 report 332 00:11:45,990 --> 00:11:42,480 they talked about this collection bias 333 00:11:47,750 --> 00:11:46,000 that they may have in that that 334 00:11:49,350 --> 00:11:47,760 and this this is one of the problems i 335 00:11:50,310 --> 00:11:49,360 have with this but i think they're going 336 00:11:52,949 --> 00:11:50,320 to be okay 337 00:11:54,790 --> 00:11:52,959 and that is they say hey look uh we can 338 00:11:56,230 --> 00:11:54,800 only work with the data we got and 339 00:11:58,069 --> 00:11:56,240 they're complaining on the one hand we 340 00:12:00,069 --> 00:11:58,079 don't really have the data our sensors 341 00:12:01,829 --> 00:12:00,079 aren't calibrated for this and 342 00:12:04,230 --> 00:12:01,839 we don't have the staff and blah blah 343 00:12:06,389 --> 00:12:04,240 that to me was political pitch for 344 00:12:08,310 --> 00:12:06,399 money to to create a program which is 345 00:12:10,150 --> 00:12:08,320 fine that's what they need to do 346 00:12:11,430 --> 00:12:10,160 but on the one hand they're complaining 347 00:12:14,550 --> 00:12:11,440 about that then they're saying 348 00:12:17,750 --> 00:12:14,560 and there's collection bias well i 349 00:12:18,069 --> 00:12:17,760 i'm sorry but you know you make it sound 350 00:12:20,949 --> 00:12:18,079 like 351 00:12:22,710 --> 00:12:20,959 only ufos are in military training we'll 352 00:12:25,910 --> 00:12:22,720 certainly talk about that more soon 353 00:12:28,949 --> 00:12:25,920 and i'll i'll say mufon for example yeah 354 00:12:31,670 --> 00:12:28,959 5000 we get 5000 cases a year 355 00:12:32,710 --> 00:12:31,680 in non-military settings so if you want 356 00:12:35,269 --> 00:12:32,720 some more data 357 00:12:37,110 --> 00:12:35,279 to help you know you get your footing 358 00:12:40,230 --> 00:12:37,120 maybe you can go to narcap 359 00:12:43,430 --> 00:12:40,240 you know maybe you can go to mufon or 360 00:12:44,310 --> 00:12:43,440 or whatever source but i i get while 361 00:12:46,389 --> 00:12:44,320 they're saying 362 00:12:48,470 --> 00:12:46,399 hey we're only looking at our stuff 363 00:12:49,910 --> 00:12:48,480 because they have the sensors and that 364 00:12:51,430 --> 00:12:49,920 this is their world and 365 00:12:53,910 --> 00:12:51,440 you know they're interjected in their 366 00:12:54,710 --> 00:12:53,920 world so yes they should handle that 367 00:12:57,430 --> 00:12:54,720 first but 368 00:12:58,389 --> 00:12:57,440 i mean on a long term basis on a 369 00:13:01,509 --> 00:12:58,399 programmatic 370 00:13:02,470 --> 00:13:01,519 scale when you're doing your analysis 371 00:13:04,710 --> 00:13:02,480 you need to bring in 372 00:13:06,230 --> 00:13:04,720 more data than just the things that are 373 00:13:07,829 --> 00:13:06,240 happening to you because there's a great 374 00:13:10,870 --> 00:13:07,839 big old wide world 375 00:13:13,910 --> 00:13:10,880 other nations other militaries 376 00:13:15,190 --> 00:13:13,920 you know civilian uh civilian aircraft 377 00:13:17,990 --> 00:13:15,200 all those things 378 00:13:20,710 --> 00:13:18,000 have have these encounters and and there 379 00:13:21,590 --> 00:13:20,720 are reports out there so you know i just 380 00:13:23,990 --> 00:13:21,600 hope that they 381 00:13:25,350 --> 00:13:24,000 set up a true uh investigative 382 00:13:28,550 --> 00:13:25,360 organization and 383 00:13:31,990 --> 00:13:28,560 and um provide real analysis based on a 384 00:13:33,350 --> 00:13:32,000 broader base of case data than just 385 00:13:35,030 --> 00:13:33,360 what's happening with them but i 386 00:13:36,790 --> 00:13:35,040 absolutely get that's what their first 387 00:13:38,550 --> 00:13:36,800 concern should be 388 00:13:40,389 --> 00:13:38,560 and is and i understand that but i just 389 00:13:42,470 --> 00:13:40,399 hope i completely agree and we'll we'll 390 00:13:45,509 --> 00:13:42,480 uh come back to that point in a minute 391 00:13:48,470 --> 00:13:45,519 but uh another interesting thing is 392 00:13:51,269 --> 00:13:48,480 as we already pointed out out of the 144 393 00:13:53,509 --> 00:13:51,279 cases they looked at 394 00:13:55,590 --> 00:13:53,519 they were all essentially still 395 00:13:57,269 --> 00:13:55,600 unidentified which is crazy they are 396 00:14:01,189 --> 00:13:57,279 only able to identify 397 00:14:04,230 --> 00:14:01,199 one out of 144 which is strange because 398 00:14:05,269 --> 00:14:04,240 if you're doing a real look at ufos as 399 00:14:08,310 --> 00:14:05,279 we all know 400 00:14:10,710 --> 00:14:08,320 90 to 95 of those are going to be 401 00:14:12,310 --> 00:14:10,720 able to be identified but in this case 402 00:14:13,030 --> 00:14:12,320 not so much because they're only looking 403 00:14:17,110 --> 00:14:13,040 at 404 00:14:19,430 --> 00:14:17,120 these total unknowns but in 18 out of 405 00:14:22,389 --> 00:14:19,440 the 144 cases examined 406 00:14:23,750 --> 00:14:22,399 the ufo seemed to demonstrate advanced 407 00:14:26,150 --> 00:14:23,760 technology 408 00:14:27,670 --> 00:14:26,160 about 12 and a half percent of the cases 409 00:14:30,150 --> 00:14:27,680 they looked at 410 00:14:31,990 --> 00:14:30,160 and that's probably you know the most 411 00:14:32,470 --> 00:14:32,000 exciting part of the report for a lot of 412 00:14:34,150 --> 00:14:32,480 people 413 00:14:36,310 --> 00:14:34,160 because of course we're talking about 414 00:14:38,550 --> 00:14:36,320 ufos we want the ones that seem exotic 415 00:14:41,829 --> 00:14:38,560 or more exciting or hard to explain 416 00:14:44,069 --> 00:14:41,839 so 18 out of 144 cases seem to 417 00:14:44,710 --> 00:14:44,079 demonstrate advanced technology that's 418 00:14:47,750 --> 00:14:44,720 kind of cool 419 00:14:48,710 --> 00:14:47,760 yeah i think too the um the aircraft 420 00:14:52,710 --> 00:14:48,720 systems 421 00:14:54,870 --> 00:14:52,720 in a small number they said were uh 422 00:14:57,030 --> 00:14:54,880 military aircraft systems processed 423 00:14:59,509 --> 00:14:57,040 radio frequency energy 424 00:15:00,949 --> 00:14:59,519 associated with the uap sightings that i 425 00:15:04,470 --> 00:15:00,959 that that like 426 00:15:06,710 --> 00:15:04,480 when i first read it i kind of like went 427 00:15:08,150 --> 00:15:06,720 just didn't understand it and then when 428 00:15:09,430 --> 00:15:08,160 i went back and actually like thought 429 00:15:12,069 --> 00:15:09,440 about that i'm like huh 430 00:15:14,069 --> 00:15:12,079 that's an interesting observation for 431 00:15:15,750 --> 00:15:14,079 them to make and to put in the 432 00:15:17,750 --> 00:15:15,760 the public report i thought that was 433 00:15:19,189 --> 00:15:17,760 pretty fascinating when it came to 434 00:15:21,430 --> 00:15:19,199 you know catching these things on 435 00:15:22,629 --> 00:15:21,440 multiple sensors too so we know they're 436 00:15:23,870 --> 00:15:22,639 physical objects 437 00:15:26,389 --> 00:15:23,880 this wasn't just like a 438 00:15:28,150 --> 00:15:26,399 misidentification or like 439 00:15:29,430 --> 00:15:28,160 you know a problem with a camera these 440 00:15:31,110 --> 00:15:29,440 were physical objects 441 00:15:32,870 --> 00:15:31,120 and that some of them process radio 442 00:15:34,150 --> 00:15:32,880 frequencies um 443 00:15:35,749 --> 00:15:34,160 you know when dealing with that so i 444 00:15:37,590 --> 00:15:35,759 thought that was pretty cool wasn't 445 00:15:39,110 --> 00:15:37,600 expecting that 446 00:15:41,350 --> 00:15:39,120 but at the same time it made me 447 00:15:44,389 --> 00:15:41,360 immediately think of drones 448 00:15:46,150 --> 00:15:44,399 yeah that's that's a good point too yeah 449 00:15:47,430 --> 00:15:46,160 there's very cool technology out there 450 00:15:48,629 --> 00:15:47,440 but yeah i agree ryan that was one of 451 00:15:50,629 --> 00:15:48,639 the cool points is 452 00:15:51,670 --> 00:15:50,639 is mentioning that they detected rf 453 00:15:54,629 --> 00:15:51,680 frequencies 454 00:15:55,990 --> 00:15:54,639 from some of these hard to explain 455 00:15:57,590 --> 00:15:56,000 incidents 456 00:16:01,509 --> 00:15:57,600 i think one of the things that people 457 00:16:04,629 --> 00:16:01,519 will probably criticize is that 458 00:16:05,110 --> 00:16:04,639 any explanation of you know exotic 459 00:16:08,389 --> 00:16:05,120 current 460 00:16:11,189 --> 00:16:08,399 technology explaining these things fall 461 00:16:12,310 --> 00:16:11,199 short when you really look at the fact 462 00:16:15,110 --> 00:16:12,320 that these things 463 00:16:15,910 --> 00:16:15,120 have been happening since 1947 sure 464 00:16:19,749 --> 00:16:15,920 right 465 00:16:22,870 --> 00:16:19,759 so you know that's not going to be 466 00:16:26,069 --> 00:16:22,880 a panacea explanation for this 467 00:16:29,269 --> 00:16:26,079 um there and and i think we've seen 468 00:16:32,230 --> 00:16:29,279 like chris mellon and and um lou 469 00:16:33,030 --> 00:16:32,240 make comments to that that effect that 470 00:16:36,790 --> 00:16:33,040 um 471 00:16:39,030 --> 00:16:36,800 you know this technology is not like 472 00:16:40,389 --> 00:16:39,040 just around the corner for mankind 473 00:16:43,189 --> 00:16:40,399 technology or 474 00:16:44,470 --> 00:16:43,199 in development that the capabilities 475 00:16:47,269 --> 00:16:44,480 these are demonstrating 476 00:16:48,389 --> 00:16:47,279 are hundreds or thousands of years ahead 477 00:16:50,629 --> 00:16:48,399 um 478 00:16:52,629 --> 00:16:50,639 and that's been the case from the 40s 479 00:16:55,590 --> 00:16:52,639 and probably way before 480 00:16:56,150 --> 00:16:55,600 we just don't have that documented so i 481 00:17:12,789 --> 00:16:56,160 i 482 00:17:14,710 --> 00:17:12,799 all 483 00:17:15,990 --> 00:17:14,720 and of course with any case with any of 484 00:17:18,150 --> 00:17:16,000 this you know 485 00:17:19,270 --> 00:17:18,160 our discussions are are based on 486 00:17:21,189 --> 00:17:19,280 extremely limited 487 00:17:22,710 --> 00:17:21,199 information even the data we have is 488 00:17:24,870 --> 00:17:22,720 limited yes and 489 00:17:26,789 --> 00:17:24,880 you know with some of these cases where 490 00:17:29,110 --> 00:17:26,799 grand claims are made 491 00:17:30,070 --> 00:17:29,120 though those grand claims are based off 492 00:17:33,350 --> 00:17:30,080 of 493 00:17:35,110 --> 00:17:33,360 you know systems that you know 494 00:17:36,789 --> 00:17:35,120 while doesn't happen often they are 495 00:17:38,950 --> 00:17:36,799 fallible right these 496 00:17:41,110 --> 00:17:38,960 statements about oh it went from you 497 00:17:43,029 --> 00:17:41,120 know the the surface of the ocean up to 498 00:17:44,950 --> 00:17:43,039 60 000 feet in a second 499 00:17:46,470 --> 00:17:44,960 i mean instrumentation is telling them 500 00:17:48,470 --> 00:17:46,480 that you know 501 00:17:50,310 --> 00:17:48,480 it's not something that again and we 502 00:17:52,549 --> 00:17:50,320 haven't seen that data we haven't been 503 00:17:55,669 --> 00:17:52,559 provided with that data to prove that 504 00:17:57,990 --> 00:17:55,679 um but you know people 505 00:18:00,070 --> 00:17:58,000 need to understand that's also based on 506 00:18:02,549 --> 00:18:00,080 on sensors and systems digital 507 00:18:03,190 --> 00:18:02,559 systems relaying that that information 508 00:18:04,789 --> 00:18:03,200 to us 509 00:18:06,549 --> 00:18:04,799 you bring up a great point shane though 510 00:18:09,270 --> 00:18:06,559 and i agree with you that 511 00:18:11,350 --> 00:18:09,280 it's hard to explain it away when these 512 00:18:13,750 --> 00:18:11,360 same types of behaviors 513 00:18:14,549 --> 00:18:13,760 from ufos have been documented and 514 00:18:16,390 --> 00:18:14,559 relayed 515 00:18:17,669 --> 00:18:16,400 for decades and decades and decades and 516 00:18:20,310 --> 00:18:17,679 decades 517 00:18:21,430 --> 00:18:20,320 hard to brush it off yep hard to brush 518 00:18:24,549 --> 00:18:21,440 it off 519 00:18:26,710 --> 00:18:24,559 well another thing that i found 520 00:18:28,150 --> 00:18:26,720 quite surprising to see in this report 521 00:18:30,549 --> 00:18:28,160 because it doesn't get brought up 522 00:18:31,590 --> 00:18:30,559 enough especially in these circles where 523 00:18:34,390 --> 00:18:31,600 they're pushing 524 00:18:35,350 --> 00:18:34,400 national security and and and the threat 525 00:18:37,590 --> 00:18:35,360 narrative 526 00:18:38,710 --> 00:18:37,600 we're looking at potential threats in 527 00:18:41,830 --> 00:18:38,720 this report 528 00:18:43,270 --> 00:18:41,840 it actually separates flight safety from 529 00:18:46,150 --> 00:18:43,280 national security 530 00:18:47,110 --> 00:18:46,160 noting that ufos do threaten flight 531 00:18:49,510 --> 00:18:47,120 safety 532 00:18:50,470 --> 00:18:49,520 i loved seeing that that was one of my 533 00:18:52,150 --> 00:18:50,480 favorite parts 534 00:18:54,230 --> 00:18:52,160 because we don't hear enough about that 535 00:18:55,110 --> 00:18:54,240 yes it's great to talk about this 536 00:18:57,909 --> 00:18:55,120 nebulous 537 00:18:58,549 --> 00:18:57,919 national security thing but flight 538 00:19:01,110 --> 00:18:58,559 safety 539 00:19:02,789 --> 00:19:01,120 that's one of the biggest things because 540 00:19:05,029 --> 00:19:02,799 both military and commercial 541 00:19:06,470 --> 00:19:05,039 and private pilots encounter ufos in the 542 00:19:09,430 --> 00:19:06,480 sky all the time they're near 543 00:19:11,190 --> 00:19:09,440 near misses all the time that's a big 544 00:19:12,710 --> 00:19:11,200 deal when it comes to ufos 545 00:19:14,470 --> 00:19:12,720 and that has always been one of the 546 00:19:16,789 --> 00:19:14,480 biggest head scratchers for me 547 00:19:19,190 --> 00:19:16,799 why the faa doesn't give a [\h__\h] about 548 00:19:21,909 --> 00:19:19,200 ufos 549 00:19:22,870 --> 00:19:21,919 yeah they they even mention 11 near 550 00:19:25,430 --> 00:19:22,880 misses 551 00:19:27,669 --> 00:19:25,440 which is pretty that's a lot for the 552 00:19:29,909 --> 00:19:27,679 hundred and forty four or whatever they 553 00:19:31,669 --> 00:19:29,919 they looked at that's a large fighter 554 00:19:33,190 --> 00:19:31,679 pilots right i mean think about how many 555 00:19:35,190 --> 00:19:33,200 other planes are in the sky 556 00:19:36,789 --> 00:19:35,200 yeah yeah and we don't know i i mean 557 00:19:38,789 --> 00:19:36,799 maybe i'm wrong but 558 00:19:40,470 --> 00:19:38,799 these were all military cases right so 559 00:19:43,669 --> 00:19:40,480 those were just the near misses 560 00:19:46,549 --> 00:19:43,679 with military aircraft imagine you know 561 00:19:48,230 --> 00:19:46,559 what that case that the four of us 562 00:19:49,430 --> 00:19:48,240 talked about on a previous episode of 563 00:19:52,150 --> 00:19:49,440 unknown was 564 00:19:53,830 --> 00:19:52,160 the one where the guy said the disc went 565 00:19:56,710 --> 00:19:53,840 right past him and 566 00:19:57,750 --> 00:19:56,720 right you know so like again i think the 567 00:20:00,630 --> 00:19:57,760 big thing 568 00:20:01,029 --> 00:20:00,640 and um i'm sure we'll get to it is that 569 00:20:04,070 --> 00:20:01,039 uh 570 00:20:07,110 --> 00:20:04,080 it's making it more possible for 571 00:20:09,510 --> 00:20:07,120 people to report these things um faa 572 00:20:11,430 --> 00:20:09,520 wise and hopefully military-wise too 573 00:20:13,350 --> 00:20:11,440 is the the whole stigma and ridicule 574 00:20:14,310 --> 00:20:13,360 thing they mentioned a couple times in 575 00:20:16,310 --> 00:20:14,320 the report 576 00:20:17,909 --> 00:20:16,320 right i think was pretty awesome too 577 00:20:19,669 --> 00:20:17,919 like it's okay to do this 578 00:20:22,149 --> 00:20:19,679 how many military people come to the 579 00:20:23,510 --> 00:20:22,159 four of us 10 years after the event 580 00:20:24,950 --> 00:20:23,520 she's like oh yeah i didn't want to 581 00:20:25,830 --> 00:20:24,960 report it then but i'll tell you about 582 00:20:27,190 --> 00:20:25,840 it now i'm like 583 00:20:29,510 --> 00:20:27,200 cool what are we going to do with that 584 00:20:30,470 --> 00:20:29,520 data so i think that was pretty cool 585 00:20:33,590 --> 00:20:30,480 that it's like 586 00:20:35,190 --> 00:20:33,600 yeah please report it please yep no and 587 00:20:37,190 --> 00:20:35,200 that's kind of the kind of stuff that 588 00:20:38,710 --> 00:20:37,200 really ufologists have just been asking 589 00:20:42,390 --> 00:20:38,720 for for the whole time 590 00:20:43,590 --> 00:20:42,400 is to um you know be open and 591 00:20:46,070 --> 00:20:43,600 transparent with this 592 00:20:48,070 --> 00:20:46,080 take take it serious and you know the 593 00:20:50,710 --> 00:20:48,080 fact that they're doing that now is 594 00:20:53,110 --> 00:20:50,720 really satisfying and i mean we're not 595 00:20:54,549 --> 00:20:53,120 asking for much more than that really 596 00:20:56,149 --> 00:20:54,559 you think about it is just take it 597 00:20:58,070 --> 00:20:56,159 serious do your job 598 00:20:59,190 --> 00:20:58,080 you know and let us know because this 599 00:21:01,270 --> 00:20:59,200 affects everybody 600 00:21:02,310 --> 00:21:01,280 like you said just commercial air 601 00:21:04,870 --> 00:21:02,320 traffic i mean 602 00:21:07,029 --> 00:21:04,880 my gosh that how many planes are in the 603 00:21:10,630 --> 00:21:07,039 air at any given time thousands right 604 00:21:13,830 --> 00:21:10,640 so i mean that that's super serious so i 605 00:21:16,549 --> 00:21:13,840 i am pleased the way this is headed 606 00:21:16,870 --> 00:21:16,559 unless they do some kind of turnaround 607 00:21:18,789 --> 00:21:16,880 but 608 00:21:20,230 --> 00:21:18,799 yeah we're not predicting the future or 609 00:21:22,789 --> 00:21:20,240 looking ahead to the many 610 00:21:24,549 --> 00:21:22,799 problematic things that are sure to come 611 00:21:26,710 --> 00:21:24,559 just looking at this report alone i 612 00:21:28,390 --> 00:21:26,720 agree with you shane i do 613 00:21:30,230 --> 00:21:28,400 so another thing we learned in this 614 00:21:31,029 --> 00:21:30,240 report just kind of dropped in there 615 00:21:34,310 --> 00:21:31,039 subtly 616 00:21:38,149 --> 00:21:34,320 is that the uap task force 617 00:21:39,110 --> 00:21:38,159 has long-term goals right so 618 00:21:41,190 --> 00:21:39,120 they dropped that they had this 619 00:21:43,029 --> 00:21:41,200 long-term goal to widen the scope of its 620 00:21:46,549 --> 00:21:43,039 work to include additional uap 621 00:21:48,149 --> 00:21:46,559 events documented by a broader swath 622 00:21:50,070 --> 00:21:48,159 that's that's good right we just talked 623 00:21:51,750 --> 00:21:50,080 about that we need to get broader and 624 00:21:52,950 --> 00:21:51,760 stop looking at this from such a narrow 625 00:21:55,750 --> 00:21:52,960 lens 626 00:21:58,390 --> 00:21:55,760 but a broader swath of usg personnel and 627 00:22:01,909 --> 00:21:58,400 technical systems in its analysis so 628 00:22:06,070 --> 00:22:01,919 still keeping the focus on military 629 00:22:08,630 --> 00:22:06,080 but anyway they've got long-term goals 630 00:22:10,390 --> 00:22:08,640 i i partially understand why and this 631 00:22:13,669 --> 00:22:10,400 goes back to what shane was saying 632 00:22:14,710 --> 00:22:13,679 earlier they did not include other 633 00:22:18,070 --> 00:22:14,720 organizations 634 00:22:21,029 --> 00:22:18,080 publicly at this stage at this juncture 635 00:22:22,710 --> 00:22:21,039 you can tell that they were very very 636 00:22:23,669 --> 00:22:22,720 very careful with how they wrote this 637 00:22:26,630 --> 00:22:23,679 report 638 00:22:28,630 --> 00:22:26,640 and i think bringing in agencies which 639 00:22:30,470 --> 00:22:28,640 notoriously 640 00:22:32,870 --> 00:22:30,480 are searching for the truth of 641 00:22:36,350 --> 00:22:32,880 extraterrestrial life instead of 642 00:22:39,350 --> 00:22:36,360 just the broad scope of identifying 643 00:22:41,430 --> 00:22:39,360 unidentified objects um was 644 00:22:42,390 --> 00:22:41,440 was very calculated and they know what 645 00:22:45,990 --> 00:22:42,400 they were doing here 646 00:22:48,230 --> 00:22:46,000 and they mention um that the fact that 647 00:22:50,070 --> 00:22:48,240 that a lot of these trains are pilots 648 00:22:54,390 --> 00:22:50,080 and and military officials 649 00:22:55,430 --> 00:22:54,400 are not reporting on uh uaps because of 650 00:22:57,750 --> 00:22:55,440 the stigma 651 00:23:00,230 --> 00:22:57,760 so i think this this was kind of like 652 00:23:02,789 --> 00:23:00,240 let's lay it out so people know 653 00:23:03,909 --> 00:23:02,799 we're not necessarily talking about the 654 00:23:07,110 --> 00:23:03,919 the more 655 00:23:10,390 --> 00:23:07,120 uh out there topics to start 656 00:23:13,430 --> 00:23:10,400 work that's our catch-all bin um 657 00:23:14,870 --> 00:23:13,440 but this that these could be all these 658 00:23:17,110 --> 00:23:14,880 other different things and 659 00:23:18,870 --> 00:23:17,120 stressing the importance of reporting 660 00:23:23,029 --> 00:23:18,880 and i think that that's a basic 661 00:23:23,350 --> 00:23:23,039 first step obviously in my mind and all 662 00:23:25,029 --> 00:23:23,360 of 663 00:23:27,110 --> 00:23:25,039 you we know how many other credible 664 00:23:29,830 --> 00:23:27,120 sightings there are by civilians 665 00:23:31,190 --> 00:23:29,840 and you know like you said just regular 666 00:23:35,430 --> 00:23:31,200 commercial pilots and 667 00:23:35,990 --> 00:23:35,440 and uh everywhere else across the board 668 00:23:39,110 --> 00:23:36,000 and i 669 00:23:41,269 --> 00:23:39,120 think it would be behoove them to 670 00:23:43,269 --> 00:23:41,279 include a lot of those historic reports 671 00:23:46,149 --> 00:23:43,279 in their machine learning figures 672 00:23:47,110 --> 00:23:46,159 and and go from there but maybe it's you 673 00:23:49,990 --> 00:23:47,120 know 674 00:23:51,750 --> 00:23:50,000 they need to have a separate sort of 675 00:23:55,269 --> 00:23:51,760 bank of information that 676 00:23:58,470 --> 00:23:55,279 they they know can be potentially 677 00:24:00,149 --> 00:23:58,480 unclassified compared to what's going to 678 00:24:03,269 --> 00:24:00,159 happen within 679 00:24:06,390 --> 00:24:03,279 these reports where we will lack 680 00:24:10,070 --> 00:24:06,400 uh you know that we're not going to be 681 00:24:12,070 --> 00:24:10,080 privy to see all this information so 682 00:24:14,230 --> 00:24:12,080 i i get it and yeah you think about all 683 00:24:15,669 --> 00:24:14,240 those past military sightings even if 684 00:24:18,310 --> 00:24:15,679 you look at like 685 00:24:20,950 --> 00:24:18,320 robert salas and and other individuals 686 00:24:24,310 --> 00:24:20,960 who have reported 687 00:24:27,110 --> 00:24:24,320 uh you know lights over nuclear 688 00:24:28,549 --> 00:24:27,120 uh weapons over bases and all these 689 00:24:31,190 --> 00:24:28,559 things are they going to add those 690 00:24:34,230 --> 00:24:31,200 historic reports into their 691 00:24:34,870 --> 00:24:34,240 official reports or not uh i i think 692 00:24:38,070 --> 00:24:34,880 that there's 693 00:24:40,870 --> 00:24:38,080 a few ways they can go and unfortunately 694 00:24:42,630 --> 00:24:40,880 we will likely be in the dark on it and 695 00:24:43,750 --> 00:24:42,640 that's why it's great that civilian 696 00:24:46,870 --> 00:24:43,760 groups like 697 00:24:51,190 --> 00:24:46,880 mufon in other areas exist 698 00:24:54,310 --> 00:24:51,200 so uh i get the bigger picture 699 00:24:55,269 --> 00:24:54,320 but i don't think we're there yet yeah 700 00:24:57,669 --> 00:24:55,279 i'm with you 701 00:24:58,870 --> 00:24:57,679 so we we hit a few few of the highlights 702 00:25:01,190 --> 00:24:58,880 and there are some more but 703 00:25:01,990 --> 00:25:01,200 i want to move on to a couple of the 704 00:25:03,990 --> 00:25:02,000 other 705 00:25:05,350 --> 00:25:04,000 parts of the report that uh you know 706 00:25:07,669 --> 00:25:05,360 there were a few uh 707 00:25:08,789 --> 00:25:07,679 kind of no-brainer comments added to 708 00:25:11,269 --> 00:25:08,799 this report that 709 00:25:11,830 --> 00:25:11,279 at first made me roll my eyes pretty 710 00:25:13,350 --> 00:25:11,840 hard 711 00:25:15,430 --> 00:25:13,360 but then after i thought about them i 712 00:25:18,470 --> 00:25:15,440 was happy to see that they included it 713 00:25:20,149 --> 00:25:18,480 um one of those was um 714 00:25:21,830 --> 00:25:20,159 you mentioned before but the limited 715 00:25:23,510 --> 00:25:21,840 amount of high quality reporting on 716 00:25:25,350 --> 00:25:23,520 unidentified aerial phenomena 717 00:25:27,269 --> 00:25:25,360 hampers our ability to draw firm 718 00:25:29,269 --> 00:25:27,279 conclusions about the nature or intent 719 00:25:32,549 --> 00:25:29,279 of uap 720 00:25:34,470 --> 00:25:32,559 really welcome to ufos right i mean that 721 00:25:34,870 --> 00:25:34,480 is ufo research in a nutshell right 722 00:25:37,510 --> 00:25:34,880 there 723 00:25:38,870 --> 00:25:37,520 like you don't you're not going to have 724 00:25:40,470 --> 00:25:38,880 the data you want you're not going to 725 00:25:42,149 --> 00:25:40,480 have high quality data 726 00:25:44,390 --> 00:25:42,159 and you're not going to be able to draw 727 00:25:47,830 --> 00:25:44,400 firm conclusions about nature or intent 728 00:25:48,310 --> 00:25:47,840 of most your ufos so so that was kind of 729 00:25:51,029 --> 00:25:48,320 funny 730 00:25:51,750 --> 00:25:51,039 um yeah another one in a limited number 731 00:25:54,390 --> 00:25:51,760 of incidents 732 00:25:56,710 --> 00:25:54,400 uap reportedly appeared to exhibit 733 00:25:58,950 --> 00:25:56,720 unusual flight characteristics 734 00:26:00,390 --> 00:25:58,960 these observations could be the result 735 00:26:03,750 --> 00:26:00,400 of sensor errors 736 00:26:07,269 --> 00:26:03,760 spoofing or observer misinterpretations 737 00:26:10,310 --> 00:26:07,279 and require additional rigorous analysis 738 00:26:11,350 --> 00:26:10,320 again really of course of course you're 739 00:26:14,710 --> 00:26:11,360 going to get that 740 00:26:15,269 --> 00:26:14,720 in ufo sightings um the third one i 741 00:26:17,510 --> 00:26:15,279 pointed out 742 00:26:19,669 --> 00:26:17,520 uap sightings also tended to cluster 743 00:26:21,510 --> 00:26:19,679 around u.s training and testing grounds 744 00:26:23,669 --> 00:26:21,520 but we assess that this may result from 745 00:26:24,470 --> 00:26:23,679 a collection bias as a result of focused 746 00:26:26,230 --> 00:26:24,480 attention 747 00:26:28,470 --> 00:26:26,240 greater numbers of latest generation 748 00:26:31,669 --> 00:26:28,480 sensors operating in those areas 749 00:26:32,710 --> 00:26:31,679 unit expectations and guidance to report 750 00:26:34,710 --> 00:26:32,720 anomalies 751 00:26:36,390 --> 00:26:34,720 and again you brought this up shane but 752 00:26:37,990 --> 00:26:36,400 of course of course 753 00:26:40,230 --> 00:26:38,000 that's what they found in this case 754 00:26:42,870 --> 00:26:40,240 because we also have to keep in mind 755 00:26:44,710 --> 00:26:42,880 the exact report request the report 756 00:26:48,710 --> 00:26:44,720 request was very narrow 757 00:26:51,029 --> 00:26:48,720 very specific and that's what it wanted 758 00:26:52,230 --> 00:26:51,039 looked into here was the incursions of 759 00:26:55,190 --> 00:26:52,240 training ranges 760 00:26:57,750 --> 00:26:55,200 and of course that was the focus of of 761 00:27:00,310 --> 00:26:57,760 this report of the data gathered 762 00:27:01,590 --> 00:27:00,320 naturally that's what it's going to seem 763 00:27:04,390 --> 00:27:01,600 like there are 764 00:27:05,590 --> 00:27:04,400 sightings clustered around here but for 765 00:27:08,310 --> 00:27:05,600 anybody who wants to 766 00:27:09,669 --> 00:27:08,320 wants to look at uh you know a broader 767 00:27:12,230 --> 00:27:09,679 set of data 768 00:27:13,190 --> 00:27:12,240 cheryl costa man you really gotta gotta 769 00:27:16,230 --> 00:27:13,200 check out 770 00:27:17,110 --> 00:27:16,240 what cheryl costa does she and and her 771 00:27:19,669 --> 00:27:17,120 wife linda 772 00:27:21,830 --> 00:27:19,679 do amazing work they're they're doing 773 00:27:24,070 --> 00:27:21,840 even more work with their new book 774 00:27:25,909 --> 00:27:24,080 if you like statistics and data 775 00:27:27,350 --> 00:27:25,919 associated with ufos you're not going to 776 00:27:30,389 --> 00:27:27,360 find a better source 777 00:27:32,789 --> 00:27:30,399 than than the work that they do so 778 00:27:33,990 --> 00:27:32,799 um you know they would be a great uh 779 00:27:36,870 --> 00:27:34,000 resource for the government 780 00:27:38,870 --> 00:27:36,880 to to tap if they get down to looking at 781 00:27:41,669 --> 00:27:38,880 the broader picture 782 00:27:42,630 --> 00:27:41,679 but another just one more eye roll point 783 00:27:45,110 --> 00:27:42,640 i'll point out 784 00:27:46,230 --> 00:27:45,120 is that when they said if and when 785 00:27:48,070 --> 00:27:46,240 individual uap 786 00:27:49,830 --> 00:27:48,080 incidents are resolved they will fall 787 00:27:51,669 --> 00:27:49,840 into one of five potential explanatory 788 00:27:52,789 --> 00:27:51,679 categories airborne clutter natural 789 00:27:55,269 --> 00:27:52,799 atmospheric phenomena 790 00:27:56,789 --> 00:27:55,279 usg or industrial development programs 791 00:27:58,950 --> 00:27:56,799 foreign adversary systems 792 00:28:00,149 --> 00:27:58,960 and catch all other bin like we already 793 00:28:02,470 --> 00:28:00,159 mentioned 794 00:28:03,590 --> 00:28:02,480 these the government really seems and 795 00:28:05,510 --> 00:28:03,600 you know this shane about 796 00:28:07,430 --> 00:28:05,520 working with government but it seems 797 00:28:09,190 --> 00:28:07,440 like especially with ufos because we 798 00:28:11,269 --> 00:28:09,200 we heard from lou elizondo the five 799 00:28:12,230 --> 00:28:11,279 observables and now we've got our five 800 00:28:13,909 --> 00:28:12,240 bins here 801 00:28:16,149 --> 00:28:13,919 they like to have this number of 802 00:28:18,710 --> 00:28:16,159 cataract cataractization 803 00:28:20,389 --> 00:28:18,720 that they can put things into when it's 804 00:28:23,350 --> 00:28:20,399 kind of unnecessary i mean 805 00:28:24,070 --> 00:28:23,360 ufos are all over the place and i mean 806 00:28:27,830 --> 00:28:24,080 you could really 807 00:28:29,269 --> 00:28:27,840 just say solved unsolved but 808 00:28:31,110 --> 00:28:29,279 i think we would all like to have a peek 809 00:28:33,110 --> 00:28:31,120 at that other bin when they actually get 810 00:28:34,710 --> 00:28:33,120 to putting things in those bins 811 00:28:35,830 --> 00:28:34,720 but as we see from the report it doesn't 812 00:28:37,510 --> 00:28:35,840 seem like they've been able to put 813 00:28:38,710 --> 00:28:37,520 anything but one thing in a bin well and 814 00:28:41,110 --> 00:28:38,720 the other thing too 815 00:28:42,710 --> 00:28:41,120 a balloon one one balloon chain 816 00:28:45,029 --> 00:28:42,720 apparently a balloon um 817 00:28:46,070 --> 00:28:45,039 the other thing too jason is that idea 818 00:28:48,630 --> 00:28:46,080 of like 819 00:28:49,750 --> 00:28:48,640 how they want to set up how they collect 820 00:28:52,950 --> 00:28:49,760 the data now 821 00:28:54,870 --> 00:28:52,960 the whole ai thing um is awesome 822 00:28:56,310 --> 00:28:54,880 and it's kind of this that sounds like 823 00:28:58,789 --> 00:28:56,320 this whole report 824 00:29:00,870 --> 00:28:58,799 was like a sales pitch it'd be like we 825 00:29:03,830 --> 00:29:00,880 don't have the technology 826 00:29:05,669 --> 00:29:03,840 to properly study this we need an ai 827 00:29:07,110 --> 00:29:05,679 system to do this that's gonna 828 00:29:08,710 --> 00:29:07,120 figure out that's a bird that's a 829 00:29:11,190 --> 00:29:08,720 satellite that's a missile 830 00:29:12,870 --> 00:29:11,200 and and he's knocking on the doors and 831 00:29:15,590 --> 00:29:12,880 says hey 832 00:29:16,549 --> 00:29:15,600 we already have that so like work with 833 00:29:19,190 --> 00:29:16,559 the public 834 00:29:21,510 --> 00:29:19,200 you know and i have heard rumblings that 835 00:29:23,990 --> 00:29:21,520 this task force might be 836 00:29:25,510 --> 00:29:24,000 uh consulting with skyhub which is 837 00:29:27,750 --> 00:29:25,520 extremely exciting 838 00:29:29,430 --> 00:29:27,760 so the ball's in their court with sky 839 00:29:31,110 --> 00:29:29,440 hub because all of their data was 840 00:29:34,549 --> 00:29:31,120 working on that stuff too right 841 00:29:36,870 --> 00:29:34,559 right them too working on ai with their 842 00:29:37,990 --> 00:29:36,880 atom project i think or is it the scout 843 00:29:39,909 --> 00:29:38,000 the scout app yeah 844 00:29:41,590 --> 00:29:39,919 oh okay okay yeah so it's out there 845 00:29:44,310 --> 00:29:41,600 already so 846 00:29:46,389 --> 00:29:44,320 but the problem being you know um 847 00:29:47,990 --> 00:29:46,399 skyhub's big thing is transparency the 848 00:29:50,310 --> 00:29:48,000 data is for the public 849 00:29:51,590 --> 00:29:50,320 it's in the cloud so you have to wonder 850 00:29:52,310 --> 00:29:51,600 like are they going to use their 851 00:29:54,470 --> 00:29:52,320 software 852 00:29:56,389 --> 00:29:54,480 but still keep it hidden and classified 853 00:29:57,990 --> 00:29:56,399 so i think uh skyhub is going to have 854 00:30:00,549 --> 00:29:58,000 some ethical questions 855 00:30:02,230 --> 00:30:00,559 on their minds coming soon i don't know 856 00:30:03,350 --> 00:30:02,240 i think it would have to be classified 857 00:30:04,870 --> 00:30:03,360 because it would have to 858 00:30:06,870 --> 00:30:04,880 the thing's going to pick up classified 859 00:30:09,110 --> 00:30:06,880 projects exactly 860 00:30:10,630 --> 00:30:09,120 exactly even though apparently that's 861 00:30:12,549 --> 00:30:10,640 not what any of these are 862 00:30:14,549 --> 00:30:12,559 according to the us government which i 863 00:30:16,470 --> 00:30:14,559 don't believe for a second but that's 864 00:30:17,909 --> 00:30:16,480 that's a whole other debate it's it's 865 00:30:19,750 --> 00:30:17,919 very interesting though because i think 866 00:30:22,389 --> 00:30:19,760 the technology 867 00:30:24,710 --> 00:30:22,399 it's it is out there and and you know i 868 00:30:25,750 --> 00:30:24,720 work at a programming company and i was 869 00:30:28,470 --> 00:30:25,760 at a conference 870 00:30:28,789 --> 00:30:28,480 years ago and i walk around the corner 871 00:30:32,630 --> 00:30:28,799 and 872 00:30:34,470 --> 00:30:32,640 talking about how they were using 873 00:30:37,830 --> 00:30:34,480 machine learning to pull 874 00:30:40,470 --> 00:30:37,840 from all these different sources of 875 00:30:43,029 --> 00:30:40,480 um you know publix computers and all 876 00:30:46,149 --> 00:30:43,039 this stuff to put together 877 00:30:48,470 --> 00:30:46,159 information on a mass scale 878 00:30:49,990 --> 00:30:48,480 engineers can do it it's out there and 879 00:30:52,310 --> 00:30:50,000 and i think that you know 880 00:30:53,909 --> 00:30:52,320 if they had a if they want to come 881 00:30:54,470 --> 00:30:53,919 knocking on our door i'll give them a 882 00:30:59,590 --> 00:30:54,480 government 883 00:31:01,269 --> 00:30:59,600 build some sort of crazy machine 884 00:31:03,509 --> 00:31:01,279 learning system for them 885 00:31:04,549 --> 00:31:03,519 i mean those were just saying it's the 886 00:31:06,310 --> 00:31:04,559 research is there 887 00:31:07,909 --> 00:31:06,320 clearly it's the funding the money 888 00:31:11,350 --> 00:31:07,919 that's not there 889 00:31:14,789 --> 00:31:11,360 um and that yes you're right it was 890 00:31:16,549 --> 00:31:14,799 a total sales pitch of okay yes 891 00:31:18,149 --> 00:31:16,559 unidentified we need to figure out how 892 00:31:19,269 --> 00:31:18,159 to make this work if you want us to 893 00:31:22,630 --> 00:31:19,279 exist 894 00:31:25,909 --> 00:31:22,640 we need money give us money 895 00:31:27,750 --> 00:31:25,919 totally well i do have to bring this up 896 00:31:29,669 --> 00:31:27,760 because although there were things in 897 00:31:31,110 --> 00:31:29,679 the report that made me roll my eyes but 898 00:31:31,990 --> 00:31:31,120 later i appreciated the fact that they 899 00:31:34,870 --> 00:31:32,000 are they're actually in 900 00:31:35,350 --> 00:31:34,880 there there's one thing that that just 901 00:31:39,029 --> 00:31:35,360 got a 902 00:31:42,470 --> 00:31:39,039 statement 903 00:31:43,590 --> 00:31:42,480 that said there are probably multiple 904 00:31:47,830 --> 00:31:43,600 types of uap 905 00:31:49,750 --> 00:31:47,840 requiring different explanations 906 00:31:51,750 --> 00:31:49,760 really only probably you think you just 907 00:31:54,070 --> 00:31:51,760 figured that out after your study 908 00:31:57,190 --> 00:31:54,080 give me a break of course of course 909 00:32:01,190 --> 00:31:57,200 there are different types of ufos 910 00:32:03,909 --> 00:32:01,200 yeah no there's only one only one type 911 00:32:05,909 --> 00:32:03,919 one solution yeah yeah now that that's 912 00:32:08,310 --> 00:32:05,919 the problem with grouping everything's 913 00:32:10,070 --> 00:32:08,320 all these strange ufos into one giant 914 00:32:11,669 --> 00:32:10,080 pile when other bin 915 00:32:13,350 --> 00:32:11,679 you know they're not all the same 916 00:32:16,310 --> 00:32:13,360 they're pretty much all different 917 00:32:20,789 --> 00:32:16,320 so again problem with the ufos they're 918 00:32:24,870 --> 00:32:22,710 like snowflakes ryan i like that that's 919 00:32:26,870 --> 00:32:24,880 beautiful thank you i made that up 920 00:32:30,070 --> 00:32:26,880 myself it's never been said before 921 00:32:33,750 --> 00:32:32,310 i feel like you know if jeremy corbell 922 00:32:36,310 --> 00:32:33,760 were here he would have a more 923 00:32:37,430 --> 00:32:36,320 eloquent way of saying that like a like 924 00:32:47,830 --> 00:32:37,440 a 925 00:32:50,950 --> 00:32:47,840 you 926 00:32:54,149 --> 00:32:50,960 he has a way with words man all right 927 00:32:57,110 --> 00:32:54,159 so the biggest question i have 928 00:32:59,430 --> 00:32:57,120 after reading this report is when they 929 00:33:01,029 --> 00:32:59,440 were talking about 930 00:33:02,549 --> 00:33:01,039 that one balloon they were able to 931 00:33:03,870 --> 00:33:02,559 identify 932 00:33:09,110 --> 00:33:03,880 do you think they were talking about the 933 00:33:13,430 --> 00:33:10,870 batman balloon it has to be i thought it 934 00:33:15,430 --> 00:33:13,440 was that man oh really see i thought it 935 00:33:17,350 --> 00:33:15,440 was the omaha video 936 00:33:19,590 --> 00:33:17,360 i was going with the omaha video because 937 00:33:20,230 --> 00:33:19,600 that one like pretty much everyone was 938 00:33:21,830 --> 00:33:20,240 like that's a 939 00:33:24,149 --> 00:33:21,840 it's a balloon at least mcquest 940 00:33:25,750 --> 00:33:24,159 interesting so i thought it was actually 941 00:33:29,029 --> 00:33:25,760 the omaha video 942 00:33:31,029 --> 00:33:29,039 interesting but yeah it it's 943 00:33:32,710 --> 00:33:31,039 yeah actually now that you say it i'm 944 00:33:33,350 --> 00:33:32,720 leaning more towards the batman balloon 945 00:33:35,029 --> 00:33:33,360 but um 946 00:33:36,470 --> 00:33:35,039 i just automatically consumed it with 947 00:33:39,830 --> 00:33:36,480 the deflating batman 948 00:33:41,830 --> 00:33:39,840 balloon yeah but they said didn't they 949 00:33:42,389 --> 00:33:41,840 say in the report that it was a very 950 00:33:45,830 --> 00:33:42,399 large 951 00:33:46,950 --> 00:33:45,840 deflating balloon like right i thought 952 00:33:50,549 --> 00:33:46,960 more like a 953 00:33:51,750 --> 00:33:50,559 um like a macy's no no like a leather 954 00:33:53,750 --> 00:33:51,760 balloon 955 00:33:55,590 --> 00:33:53,760 yeah i mean you know that's a hundred 956 00:33:58,070 --> 00:33:55,600 feet tall and you know it 957 00:33:59,269 --> 00:33:58,080 flattens and looks strange and stuff but 958 00:33:59,830 --> 00:33:59,279 i don't know that's an assumption 959 00:34:02,549 --> 00:33:59,840 largest 960 00:34:02,870 --> 00:34:02,559 objective for sure yeah it is yeah and 961 00:34:04,710 --> 00:34:02,880 as 962 00:34:06,389 --> 00:34:04,720 is everything with this report i mean 963 00:34:07,110 --> 00:34:06,399 we're sitting here chatting about stuff 964 00:34:09,750 --> 00:34:07,120 that 965 00:34:10,230 --> 00:34:09,760 you know we know nothing about oh no 966 00:34:12,230 --> 00:34:10,240 exactly 967 00:34:13,909 --> 00:34:12,240 it's all speculation and the show is 968 00:34:14,230 --> 00:34:13,919 always in the details you know think of 969 00:34:15,909 --> 00:34:14,240 this 970 00:34:18,069 --> 00:34:15,919 think of think of a just a normal 971 00:34:20,869 --> 00:34:18,079 balloon just a regular balloon 972 00:34:22,149 --> 00:34:20,879 and then think about the batman balloon 973 00:34:25,510 --> 00:34:22,159 like in relation 974 00:34:28,230 --> 00:34:25,520 is a large bloom yeah yeah yeah 975 00:34:29,349 --> 00:34:28,240 i mean can't they so now that they've 976 00:34:31,349 --> 00:34:29,359 identified it and 977 00:34:33,030 --> 00:34:31,359 it's a balloon it seems like they should 978 00:34:36,470 --> 00:34:33,040 be able to give us more information 979 00:34:38,710 --> 00:34:36,480 yes you should right balloon spotted by 980 00:34:40,310 --> 00:34:38,720 this person this is how we came to the 981 00:34:42,389 --> 00:34:40,320 conclusion that it was a deflating 982 00:34:45,109 --> 00:34:42,399 balloon 983 00:34:46,310 --> 00:34:45,119 based on all these different uh 984 00:34:48,950 --> 00:34:46,320 assessments 985 00:34:49,430 --> 00:34:48,960 that the public did probably they pulled 986 00:34:51,510 --> 00:34:49,440 a lot of 987 00:34:52,629 --> 00:34:51,520 info from from what of course the public 988 00:34:56,470 --> 00:34:52,639 was doing 989 00:34:59,750 --> 00:34:56,480 uh but yeah i i didn't even think about 990 00:35:01,910 --> 00:34:59,760 other cases i didn't either but 991 00:35:03,430 --> 00:35:01,920 i agree with you and and you know i i 992 00:35:05,349 --> 00:35:03,440 hope they do that down the road when 993 00:35:06,550 --> 00:35:05,359 they figure out how to actually identify 994 00:35:09,349 --> 00:35:06,560 ufos 995 00:35:10,310 --> 00:35:09,359 because that is tremendously valuable 996 00:35:12,790 --> 00:35:10,320 for the public 997 00:35:14,310 --> 00:35:12,800 it really is when they can say look this 998 00:35:16,470 --> 00:35:14,320 thing looks bizarre 999 00:35:17,990 --> 00:35:16,480 um you know even for our fighter pilots 1000 00:35:19,190 --> 00:35:18,000 they saw this thing in the sky and 1001 00:35:20,950 --> 00:35:19,200 they've never seen anything like this 1002 00:35:23,030 --> 00:35:20,960 before because you would see a random 1003 00:35:25,030 --> 00:35:23,040 balloon in the sky it's gonna look weird 1004 00:35:27,510 --> 00:35:25,040 but here's what it looks like just so 1005 00:35:29,510 --> 00:35:27,520 you know that is a balloon 1006 00:35:31,349 --> 00:35:29,520 so there you go you can take this and 1007 00:35:32,950 --> 00:35:31,359 and use that knowledge as you're going 1008 00:35:34,310 --> 00:35:32,960 forward and it will help you identify 1009 00:35:35,589 --> 00:35:34,320 things in the future 1010 00:35:36,710 --> 00:35:35,599 i don't think we're going to get that 1011 00:35:38,310 --> 00:35:36,720 because it doesn't seem like they've 1012 00:35:41,190 --> 00:35:38,320 even gotten down to the part of 1013 00:35:41,990 --> 00:35:41,200 of identifying things so we'll see but 1014 00:35:44,550 --> 00:35:42,000 there is hope 1015 00:35:46,550 --> 00:35:44,560 i think with this report um and with 1016 00:35:48,550 --> 00:35:46,560 other stuff that's come 1017 00:35:49,990 --> 00:35:48,560 after the report was released and that 1018 00:35:52,230 --> 00:35:50,000 is it looks like 1019 00:35:53,190 --> 00:35:52,240 it looks like the plan is to actually 1020 00:35:56,550 --> 00:35:53,200 establish a 1021 00:35:59,750 --> 00:35:56,560 true ufo program right because 1022 00:36:01,430 --> 00:35:59,760 on june 25th the same day that the dni 1023 00:36:03,349 --> 00:36:01,440 ufo report was published 1024 00:36:05,030 --> 00:36:03,359 deputy secretary of defense kathleen 1025 00:36:06,710 --> 00:36:05,040 hicks issued a memo 1026 00:36:08,470 --> 00:36:06,720 directing the office of the under 1027 00:36:08,870 --> 00:36:08,480 secretary of defense for intelligence 1028 00:36:11,589 --> 00:36:08,880 and 1029 00:36:13,270 --> 00:36:11,599 security to quote develop a plan to 1030 00:36:14,550 --> 00:36:13,280 formalize the mission currently 1031 00:36:17,589 --> 00:36:14,560 performed by the uh 1032 00:36:19,430 --> 00:36:17,599 uaptf the plan should number one 1033 00:36:21,430 --> 00:36:19,440 establish procedures to synchronize 1034 00:36:22,550 --> 00:36:21,440 collection reporting and analysis on the 1035 00:36:23,990 --> 00:36:22,560 uap problem set 1036 00:36:25,670 --> 00:36:24,000 and to establish recommendations for 1037 00:36:27,349 --> 00:36:25,680 securing military tests and training 1038 00:36:30,310 --> 00:36:27,359 ranges 1039 00:36:31,670 --> 00:36:30,320 number two identify requirements for the 1040 00:36:34,950 --> 00:36:31,680 establishment 1041 00:36:37,990 --> 00:36:34,960 and operation of the new activity 1042 00:36:39,670 --> 00:36:38,000 to include the organize organizational 1043 00:36:42,069 --> 00:36:39,680 alignment resources and staffing 1044 00:36:43,750 --> 00:36:42,079 required as well as any necessary 1045 00:36:45,109 --> 00:36:43,760 authorities and a timeline for 1046 00:36:46,550 --> 00:36:45,119 implementation 1047 00:36:48,390 --> 00:36:46,560 number three be developed in 1048 00:36:49,109 --> 00:36:48,400 coordination with the principal staff 1049 00:36:50,390 --> 00:36:49,119 assistants 1050 00:36:52,230 --> 00:36:50,400 the chairman of the joint chiefs of 1051 00:36:53,190 --> 00:36:52,240 staff the secretary of the military 1052 00:36:54,950 --> 00:36:53,200 departments 1053 00:36:56,390 --> 00:36:54,960 and the command commanders of the 1054 00:36:58,950 --> 00:36:56,400 combatant commands 1055 00:37:00,630 --> 00:36:58,960 and with the dna dni and other relevant 1056 00:37:01,990 --> 00:37:00,640 interagency partners 1057 00:37:04,230 --> 00:37:02,000 all members of the department will 1058 00:37:08,710 --> 00:37:04,240 utilize these processes to ensure 1059 00:37:10,950 --> 00:37:08,720 that the uaptf or its follow-on activity 1060 00:37:12,950 --> 00:37:10,960 as reports of uap observations within 1061 00:37:15,589 --> 00:37:12,960 two weeks of an occurrence 1062 00:37:17,270 --> 00:37:15,599 so that paired with what we saw in the 1063 00:37:18,390 --> 00:37:17,280 report at the end of the report talking 1064 00:37:20,710 --> 00:37:18,400 about funding and 1065 00:37:21,510 --> 00:37:20,720 and you know funding for a uh ufo 1066 00:37:24,150 --> 00:37:21,520 program 1067 00:37:25,109 --> 00:37:24,160 it looks like that is the goal here to 1068 00:37:28,630 --> 00:37:25,119 establish 1069 00:37:30,150 --> 00:37:28,640 a new government ufo program 1070 00:37:32,550 --> 00:37:30,160 absolutely and you can't tell me this 1071 00:37:34,150 --> 00:37:32,560 wasn't planned i mean it wouldn't have 1072 00:37:36,550 --> 00:37:34,160 this this wasn't an impulsive 1073 00:37:38,310 --> 00:37:36,560 reactionary thing on the part of the dod 1074 00:37:40,310 --> 00:37:38,320 clearly the report was meant to be like 1075 00:37:40,950 --> 00:37:40,320 we left the resources the time to do 1076 00:37:43,910 --> 00:37:40,960 this 1077 00:37:44,310 --> 00:37:43,920 um so here you go dod you deal with it 1078 00:37:46,550 --> 00:37:44,320 now 1079 00:37:47,990 --> 00:37:46,560 so hey i think that's awesome though 1080 00:37:49,430 --> 00:37:48,000 again um 1081 00:37:50,950 --> 00:37:49,440 like they're moving the ball forward 1082 00:37:51,750 --> 00:37:50,960 we're gonna get a permanent program 1083 00:37:54,069 --> 00:37:51,760 hopefully 1084 00:37:55,030 --> 00:37:54,079 um but again the real question is will 1085 00:37:57,270 --> 00:37:55,040 we will we 1086 00:37:58,069 --> 00:37:57,280 see anything from it probably not unless 1087 00:38:01,190 --> 00:37:58,079 it's leaked 1088 00:38:02,950 --> 00:38:01,200 which you know we've heard people saying 1089 00:38:04,630 --> 00:38:02,960 you know the classified report it'll 1090 00:38:05,510 --> 00:38:04,640 probably some of it will get out even 1091 00:38:07,750 --> 00:38:05,520 rubio 1092 00:38:08,710 --> 00:38:07,760 said at one point that you know things 1093 00:38:10,870 --> 00:38:08,720 don't stay 1094 00:38:12,310 --> 00:38:10,880 classified anymore not in today's world 1095 00:38:14,550 --> 00:38:12,320 with the internet and 1096 00:38:15,990 --> 00:38:14,560 you know everything like that so maybe 1097 00:38:18,390 --> 00:38:16,000 we'll see some of it but yeah 1098 00:38:19,829 --> 00:38:18,400 i thought this dod memo was so much 1099 00:38:22,950 --> 00:38:19,839 better than the entire report 1100 00:38:25,430 --> 00:38:22,960 in my personal opinion oh absolutely 1101 00:38:26,470 --> 00:38:25,440 but again the problem and what what 1102 00:38:29,349 --> 00:38:26,480 doesn't get me 1103 00:38:31,030 --> 00:38:29,359 or it gives me pause is that it 1104 00:38:34,470 --> 00:38:31,040 specifically mentions 1105 00:38:38,069 --> 00:38:34,480 formalizing the mission of the uaptf 1106 00:38:39,829 --> 00:38:38,079 which again is focused solely on 1107 00:38:41,990 --> 00:38:39,839 military training ranges military 1108 00:38:44,310 --> 00:38:42,000 airspace it's not 1109 00:38:45,349 --> 00:38:44,320 looking at the whole picture it's not 1110 00:38:47,990 --> 00:38:45,359 concerned 1111 00:38:51,510 --> 00:38:48,000 with civilian sightings which make up 1112 00:38:52,069 --> 00:38:51,520 the large majority of ufo sightings ufos 1113 00:38:54,710 --> 00:38:52,079 are seen 1114 00:38:56,550 --> 00:38:54,720 every day all around the world why are 1115 00:38:58,310 --> 00:38:56,560 we just looking at military training 1116 00:39:01,270 --> 00:38:58,320 ranges it's kind of silly 1117 00:39:02,950 --> 00:39:01,280 but you know hey if the government wants 1118 00:39:04,150 --> 00:39:02,960 their own program to just look at 1119 00:39:05,990 --> 00:39:04,160 military stuff 1120 00:39:07,270 --> 00:39:06,000 that's great it's surprising they don't 1121 00:39:08,790 --> 00:39:07,280 already have that you would think they 1122 00:39:09,910 --> 00:39:08,800 do and i think the branches probably 1123 00:39:11,430 --> 00:39:09,920 already take care of their own thing 1124 00:39:13,030 --> 00:39:11,440 they're just not sharing data 1125 00:39:14,550 --> 00:39:13,040 but that should be a thing that the 1126 00:39:17,589 --> 00:39:14,560 government has 1127 00:39:19,430 --> 00:39:17,599 however i think the government or 1128 00:39:20,870 --> 00:39:19,440 some other entity and i don't know what 1129 00:39:22,550 --> 00:39:20,880 that would be i mean i would like it to 1130 00:39:23,990 --> 00:39:22,560 be on an academic level but 1131 00:39:25,349 --> 00:39:24,000 it should you know i think it would run 1132 00:39:26,230 --> 00:39:25,359 smoother if it were operated by the 1133 00:39:30,069 --> 00:39:26,240 government 1134 00:39:31,990 --> 00:39:30,079 some true genuine ufo program 1135 00:39:33,750 --> 00:39:32,000 to take over the role really of the 1136 00:39:35,670 --> 00:39:33,760 national ufo reporting center 1137 00:39:37,430 --> 00:39:35,680 which sounds like it's a government 1138 00:39:38,710 --> 00:39:37,440 thing but it's not it's one guy living 1139 00:39:42,150 --> 00:39:38,720 in a missile silo 1140 00:39:43,510 --> 00:39:42,160 doing this thankless task of fielding 1141 00:39:46,310 --> 00:39:43,520 ufo reports 1142 00:39:47,990 --> 00:39:46,320 from people all around the world i mean 1143 00:39:48,470 --> 00:39:48,000 peter davenport does a great job but i 1144 00:39:50,390 --> 00:39:48,480 think 1145 00:39:51,510 --> 00:39:50,400 you know the government needs something 1146 00:39:53,430 --> 00:39:51,520 like that 1147 00:39:55,190 --> 00:39:53,440 kind of a central hub for reporting an 1148 00:39:57,190 --> 00:39:55,200 investigation 1149 00:39:58,470 --> 00:39:57,200 yeah that's a no-brainer one of the 1150 00:40:01,190 --> 00:39:58,480 other things too that 1151 00:40:03,270 --> 00:40:01,200 looking at it i mean um that whole 1152 00:40:05,270 --> 00:40:03,280 executive summary and that whole report 1153 00:40:08,470 --> 00:40:05,280 really to me read just like 1154 00:40:10,309 --> 00:40:08,480 uh an sow or a statement of work 1155 00:40:12,150 --> 00:40:10,319 so like whenever you create you know a 1156 00:40:13,990 --> 00:40:12,160 new program in government or you want to 1157 00:40:15,430 --> 00:40:14,000 hire a contractor you want to implement 1158 00:40:17,430 --> 00:40:15,440 a solution a 1159 00:40:18,950 --> 00:40:17,440 maybe a software solution whatever i 1160 00:40:21,910 --> 00:40:18,960 mean that's what it was written like 1161 00:40:23,589 --> 00:40:21,920 it really was a public pitch for a 1162 00:40:26,309 --> 00:40:23,599 program to create a program 1163 00:40:27,349 --> 00:40:26,319 which is awesome that is exactly what i 1164 00:40:29,430 --> 00:40:27,359 wanted to see 1165 00:40:30,470 --> 00:40:29,440 you know and so from that perspective i 1166 00:40:32,550 --> 00:40:30,480 really appreciate it 1167 00:40:34,950 --> 00:40:32,560 but i do think they miss an opportunity 1168 00:40:37,270 --> 00:40:34,960 here um 1169 00:40:38,150 --> 00:40:37,280 the fact that they didn't include any 1170 00:40:40,790 --> 00:40:38,160 specific 1171 00:40:42,390 --> 00:40:40,800 case data i i was thinking what they 1172 00:40:44,550 --> 00:40:42,400 could have done is they could have maybe 1173 00:40:45,109 --> 00:40:44,560 elaborated let's say on the nimitz case 1174 00:40:47,589 --> 00:40:45,119 right it's 1175 00:40:48,790 --> 00:40:47,599 2000 fords no doubt one of the cases 1176 00:40:50,710 --> 00:40:48,800 they were talking about 1177 00:40:52,790 --> 00:40:50,720 it's been out in the public so they 1178 00:40:53,829 --> 00:40:52,800 could have expanded on that referred to 1179 00:40:56,630 --> 00:40:53,839 that they could have 1180 00:40:58,550 --> 00:40:56,640 um they could have included maybe some 1181 00:41:01,670 --> 00:40:58,560 information that we haven't had 1182 00:41:02,230 --> 00:41:01,680 you know it's already declassified it 1183 00:41:05,270 --> 00:41:02,240 wouldn't 1184 00:41:06,950 --> 00:41:05,280 security blah blah blah 1185 00:41:09,270 --> 00:41:06,960 and what they could have done is kind of 1186 00:41:11,109 --> 00:41:09,280 created a model or a template 1187 00:41:12,950 --> 00:41:11,119 of how they're going to report data out 1188 00:41:15,430 --> 00:41:12,960 to the public when they do 1189 00:41:16,630 --> 00:41:15,440 do an investigation and make a report 1190 00:41:18,230 --> 00:41:16,640 and they could have 1191 00:41:19,910 --> 00:41:18,240 felt us out they could have felt the 1192 00:41:20,790 --> 00:41:19,920 public out they could have felt congress 1193 00:41:23,829 --> 00:41:20,800 out by 1194 00:41:24,230 --> 00:41:23,839 by you know including that in the report 1195 00:41:28,950 --> 00:41:24,240 to 1196 00:41:30,950 --> 00:41:28,960 that they will they will generate you 1197 00:41:32,870 --> 00:41:30,960 know what's the end product what's the 1198 00:41:34,230 --> 00:41:32,880 what's the deliverable whenever you have 1199 00:41:35,510 --> 00:41:34,240 a program or something you've got to 1200 00:41:36,950 --> 00:41:35,520 have a deliverable 1201 00:41:38,630 --> 00:41:36,960 and i think they missed kind of an 1202 00:41:41,510 --> 00:41:38,640 opportunity there to set us 1203 00:41:42,950 --> 00:41:41,520 up a little bit for you know create an 1204 00:41:44,710 --> 00:41:42,960 expectation but 1205 00:41:46,390 --> 00:41:44,720 you know that's probably not the purpose 1206 00:41:49,109 --> 00:41:46,400 of what that was about 1207 00:41:50,870 --> 00:41:49,119 i understand the bill was narrow what 1208 00:41:53,030 --> 00:41:50,880 they asked for but they included some 1209 00:41:54,710 --> 00:41:53,040 things outside of it a little bit so 1210 00:41:56,069 --> 00:41:54,720 i don't know i i was just really 1211 00:41:58,390 --> 00:41:56,079 disappointed that there was 1212 00:42:00,790 --> 00:41:58,400 zero case data i mean they referred to 1213 00:42:04,150 --> 00:42:00,800 144 cases 18 this 1214 00:42:05,750 --> 00:42:04,160 21 that blah blah blah fine but 1215 00:42:07,510 --> 00:42:05,760 i didn't find that helpful and i 1216 00:42:08,630 --> 00:42:07,520 especially didn't like the stupid 1217 00:42:11,990 --> 00:42:08,640 balloon reference 1218 00:42:13,750 --> 00:42:12,000 i did the 144 cases and i'm sure there 1219 00:42:15,670 --> 00:42:13,760 were more cases where they resolved them 1220 00:42:17,670 --> 00:42:15,680 you had to pick a freaking balloon 1221 00:42:20,390 --> 00:42:17,680 i mean that's irritating to me that's 1222 00:42:23,270 --> 00:42:20,400 like project blue book that's like 1223 00:42:23,589 --> 00:42:23,280 you know disinformation missing from me 1224 00:42:26,150 --> 00:42:23,599 it's 1225 00:42:28,150 --> 00:42:26,160 smacks of that so i don't know if they 1226 00:42:29,430 --> 00:42:28,160 just don't get it culturally like in the 1227 00:42:30,950 --> 00:42:29,440 ufo community 1228 00:42:32,790 --> 00:42:30,960 which i know they're not writing it for 1229 00:42:35,109 --> 00:42:32,800 us specifically but you know 1230 00:42:35,990 --> 00:42:35,119 have some situational awareness uh 1231 00:42:38,710 --> 00:42:36,000 government 1232 00:42:39,109 --> 00:42:38,720 and you know pick something else but you 1233 00:42:40,790 --> 00:42:39,119 know 1234 00:42:43,190 --> 00:42:40,800 the whole i mean like you started the 1235 00:42:44,710 --> 00:42:43,200 program with swamp gas i mean 1236 00:42:46,230 --> 00:42:44,720 if they had come out with that right 1237 00:42:48,630 --> 00:42:46,240 people would have wailed and i think 1238 00:42:50,230 --> 00:42:48,640 balloon is on the same level so 1239 00:42:52,230 --> 00:42:50,240 i was a little disappointed because they 1240 00:42:54,309 --> 00:42:52,240 had a a case they could have talked 1241 00:42:55,990 --> 00:42:54,319 about that was really incredible 1242 00:42:57,510 --> 00:42:56,000 and it's already in the public sector 1243 00:42:59,030 --> 00:42:57,520 and they could have set a model or 1244 00:43:00,630 --> 00:42:59,040 expectation and they didn't 1245 00:43:02,390 --> 00:43:00,640 i think that's a great point and and 1246 00:43:03,349 --> 00:43:02,400 that would have been cool to see but i'm 1247 00:43:05,589 --> 00:43:03,359 gonna 1248 00:43:07,270 --> 00:43:05,599 just off the top of my head guess that 1249 00:43:08,230 --> 00:43:07,280 even though it's a declassified 1250 00:43:10,470 --> 00:43:08,240 situation 1251 00:43:11,589 --> 00:43:10,480 there would have been a lot more red 1252 00:43:14,550 --> 00:43:11,599 tape to cross 1253 00:43:16,790 --> 00:43:14,560 and it probably would have uh delayed 1254 00:43:22,230 --> 00:43:16,800 the report to the public by 1255 00:43:24,230 --> 00:43:22,240 uh months potentially just knowing that 1256 00:43:25,430 --> 00:43:24,240 to be honest yeah i'm sorry to interrupt 1257 00:43:27,750 --> 00:43:25,440 more but like 1258 00:43:29,829 --> 00:43:27,760 i feel like i wasn't expecting anything 1259 00:43:31,109 --> 00:43:29,839 that day to be honest until i heard like 1260 00:43:33,109 --> 00:43:31,119 the rumblings but 1261 00:43:34,150 --> 00:43:33,119 i would have rather waited another six 1262 00:43:37,270 --> 00:43:34,160 months and got 1263 00:43:38,150 --> 00:43:37,280 some case data to look at which elizondo 1264 00:43:39,990 --> 00:43:38,160 was kind of 1265 00:43:41,430 --> 00:43:40,000 alluding to he's like it's gonna get 1266 00:43:43,829 --> 00:43:41,440 delayed um 1267 00:43:44,710 --> 00:43:43,839 and hopefully that's that's a good thing 1268 00:43:46,630 --> 00:43:44,720 like that's for 1269 00:43:49,430 --> 00:43:46,640 the better but it didn't and this is 1270 00:43:52,710 --> 00:43:49,440 what we got so sorry to interrupt i just 1271 00:43:55,990 --> 00:43:52,720 i yeah 1272 00:43:57,349 --> 00:43:56,000 well something that you know people 1273 00:43:59,030 --> 00:43:57,359 i know a lot of people were disappointed 1274 00:44:00,390 --> 00:43:59,040 with the report like i said i i was 1275 00:44:04,630 --> 00:44:00,400 pleasantly surprised 1276 00:44:08,230 --> 00:44:04,640 but i i really hope people keep in mind 1277 00:44:09,670 --> 00:44:08,240 what the uap task force is 1278 00:44:11,270 --> 00:44:09,680 again there's a lot of this is 1279 00:44:13,589 --> 00:44:11,280 speculation because we don't know much 1280 00:44:16,390 --> 00:44:13,599 about the uap task force i mean we 1281 00:44:17,829 --> 00:44:16,400 know now who the director of that is at 1282 00:44:18,790 --> 00:44:17,839 least you know until that person is 1283 00:44:22,470 --> 00:44:18,800 replaced 1284 00:44:26,150 --> 00:44:22,480 but understand that 1285 00:44:28,550 --> 00:44:26,160 again a task force is a temporary thing 1286 00:44:30,069 --> 00:44:28,560 it's established for a specific purpose 1287 00:44:31,430 --> 00:44:30,079 this isn't something where they went out 1288 00:44:34,710 --> 00:44:31,440 and hired people 1289 00:44:36,710 --> 00:44:34,720 to put them in here and do this thorough 1290 00:44:37,910 --> 00:44:36,720 awesome job and that was the only job 1291 00:44:40,470 --> 00:44:37,920 they had 1292 00:44:41,109 --> 00:44:40,480 it's like if you work in at any business 1293 00:44:43,109 --> 00:44:41,119 and they're all 1294 00:44:45,270 --> 00:44:43,119 well we need a committee to plan a party 1295 00:44:47,430 --> 00:44:45,280 or we need to need a committee to plan a 1296 00:44:49,349 --> 00:44:47,440 conference we're doing 1297 00:44:50,870 --> 00:44:49,359 it's people you already have on your 1298 00:44:52,630 --> 00:44:50,880 existing staff 1299 00:44:53,910 --> 00:44:52,640 and they still are responsible for 1300 00:44:55,349 --> 00:44:53,920 performing their job that they were 1301 00:44:57,910 --> 00:44:55,359 hired to do 1302 00:44:59,270 --> 00:44:57,920 plus this extra committee work that they 1303 00:45:01,510 --> 00:44:59,280 signed up to do 1304 00:45:03,430 --> 00:45:01,520 that's what we have here we have people 1305 00:45:04,950 --> 00:45:03,440 who have a job that they have to do 1306 00:45:07,510 --> 00:45:04,960 but they're also taking on additional 1307 00:45:10,630 --> 00:45:07,520 responsibilities they're people who are 1308 00:45:11,670 --> 00:45:10,640 performing i imagine an impossible job 1309 00:45:15,030 --> 00:45:11,680 of going to 1310 00:45:17,349 --> 00:45:15,040 these different agencies and saying hi 1311 00:45:18,390 --> 00:45:17,359 would you please give us all of your ufo 1312 00:45:20,309 --> 00:45:18,400 information 1313 00:45:21,990 --> 00:45:20,319 and those people are saying [\h__\h] off i 1314 00:45:25,589 --> 00:45:22,000 mean i'm sure that's what happened 1315 00:45:27,750 --> 00:45:25,599 lots of times and that probably 1316 00:45:29,910 --> 00:45:27,760 is responsible for at least one of the 1317 00:45:30,870 --> 00:45:29,920 ig investigations that's apparently 1318 00:45:33,990 --> 00:45:30,880 ongoing or 1319 00:45:37,750 --> 00:45:34,000 evaluations um because 1320 00:45:39,270 --> 00:45:37,760 again ufos it's a big problem with ufos 1321 00:45:42,390 --> 00:45:39,280 and i don't think it's one that will 1322 00:45:43,750 --> 00:45:42,400 ever a hurdle will ever uh you know be 1323 00:45:46,870 --> 00:45:43,760 able to jump 1324 00:45:49,030 --> 00:45:46,880 that's because the nature of classified 1325 00:45:51,589 --> 00:45:49,040 projects the nature of government and 1326 00:45:53,750 --> 00:45:51,599 military and secret programs and 1327 00:45:55,589 --> 00:45:53,760 in all of this stuff that's happening 1328 00:45:57,750 --> 00:45:55,599 that most people in the government 1329 00:45:58,710 --> 00:45:57,760 aren't going to know about and certainly 1330 00:46:00,470 --> 00:45:58,720 other the agents 1331 00:46:03,349 --> 00:46:00,480 agencies working on these things aren't 1332 00:46:04,870 --> 00:46:03,359 going to volunteer that information 1333 00:46:06,470 --> 00:46:04,880 and even if they're forced to it's 1334 00:46:07,589 --> 00:46:06,480 probably not coming out because they 1335 00:46:08,790 --> 00:46:07,599 don't have to they're going to do what 1336 00:46:11,510 --> 00:46:08,800 they're going to do 1337 00:46:12,470 --> 00:46:11,520 um i always bring up the u2 and and you 1338 00:46:14,470 --> 00:46:12,480 know i know 1339 00:46:16,309 --> 00:46:14,480 ufo people don't like to hear that but 1340 00:46:19,270 --> 00:46:16,319 the ufo the the u2 1341 00:46:21,030 --> 00:46:19,280 project is a very important thing for 1342 00:46:22,230 --> 00:46:21,040 ufo history and for 1343 00:46:24,790 --> 00:46:22,240 for present things we're seeing right 1344 00:46:27,270 --> 00:46:24,800 now to understand there was a 1345 00:46:28,390 --> 00:46:27,280 very very very very very very small 1346 00:46:31,910 --> 00:46:28,400 group of people 1347 00:46:34,390 --> 00:46:31,920 who even knew that project existed 1348 00:46:35,910 --> 00:46:34,400 not that it was in development or you 1349 00:46:38,390 --> 00:46:35,920 know being researched 1350 00:46:39,589 --> 00:46:38,400 when it was actually flying missions 1351 00:46:41,829 --> 00:46:39,599 only a small group 1352 00:46:43,829 --> 00:46:41,839 knew that it even existed and it took 1353 00:46:45,910 --> 00:46:43,839 one crashing in russia 1354 00:46:46,870 --> 00:46:45,920 for it to be revealed i mean people in 1355 00:46:48,950 --> 00:46:46,880 the senate 1356 00:46:49,990 --> 00:46:48,960 in these intelligence committees they 1357 00:46:53,190 --> 00:46:50,000 didn't even know 1358 00:46:55,270 --> 00:46:53,200 that the u2 was a thing so 1359 00:46:56,309 --> 00:46:55,280 that stuff happens that's how military 1360 00:46:58,790 --> 00:46:56,319 and government works 1361 00:47:00,550 --> 00:46:58,800 and it's always going to be that way i 1362 00:47:01,910 --> 00:47:00,560 mean i i'm trying not to be pessimistic 1363 00:47:03,510 --> 00:47:01,920 i think that's realistic 1364 00:47:05,190 --> 00:47:03,520 because we know that's how government 1365 00:47:05,990 --> 00:47:05,200 works so there's going to be a lot of 1366 00:47:08,630 --> 00:47:06,000 that 1367 00:47:10,069 --> 00:47:08,640 but i applaud their effort and i do 1368 00:47:12,230 --> 00:47:10,079 think it's very important 1369 00:47:14,630 --> 00:47:12,240 if they really want to try to get to the 1370 00:47:16,790 --> 00:47:14,640 bottom of ufos or or try to at least 1371 00:47:18,950 --> 00:47:16,800 identify some here and there because 1372 00:47:20,069 --> 00:47:18,960 that's really all you can do with ufos 1373 00:47:21,589 --> 00:47:20,079 they really need to come up with a 1374 00:47:23,349 --> 00:47:21,599 better way of sharing data and that 1375 00:47:24,870 --> 00:47:23,359 really is the focus here and i think 1376 00:47:26,790 --> 00:47:24,880 they're hopefully 1377 00:47:28,549 --> 00:47:26,800 getting to a point where they can have a 1378 00:47:33,829 --> 00:47:28,559 conversation about it and try to make 1379 00:47:37,349 --> 00:47:35,990 baby steps yeah i like that something 1380 00:47:39,109 --> 00:47:37,359 cool that's that's happened 1381 00:47:40,790 --> 00:47:39,119 and i'm sure you guys have seen this but 1382 00:47:42,710 --> 00:47:40,800 uh certainly since the release of the 1383 00:47:45,430 --> 00:47:42,720 report 1384 00:47:46,069 --> 00:47:45,440 wow the networks have jumped all over it 1385 00:47:49,190 --> 00:47:46,079 there is 1386 00:47:51,990 --> 00:47:49,200 tv ufo programming on the tv 1387 00:47:53,750 --> 00:47:52,000 like nobody's business um i mean as 1388 00:47:55,430 --> 00:47:53,760 we're recording this i think there's a 1389 00:47:57,510 --> 00:47:55,440 three-hour special happening right now 1390 00:48:01,270 --> 00:47:57,520 on discovery and other networks 1391 00:48:03,430 --> 00:48:01,280 um it's crazy um it's fun i i love it 1392 00:48:06,630 --> 00:48:03,440 i'm trying to watch as much as i can 1393 00:48:07,750 --> 00:48:06,640 but i will will drop this little salt 1394 00:48:09,670 --> 00:48:07,760 promo here that 1395 00:48:10,790 --> 00:48:09,680 i've hinted at but haven't publicly 1396 00:48:14,069 --> 00:48:10,800 acknowledged 1397 00:48:16,790 --> 00:48:14,079 but uh this friday friday what would 1398 00:48:18,630 --> 00:48:16,800 that be that would be july 2nd 1399 00:48:20,309 --> 00:48:18,640 a new show about roswell is premiering 1400 00:48:21,670 --> 00:48:20,319 and i know lots of people like to roll 1401 00:48:24,069 --> 00:48:21,680 their eyes and go 1402 00:48:24,870 --> 00:48:24,079 more roswell give it a rest

1406 00:48:33,430 --> 00:48:31,280 it's called roswell the final verdict 1407 00:48:34,870 --> 00:48:33,440 um i certainly haven't seen the show i 1408 00:48:37,670 --> 00:48:34,880 don't know how good it's going to be 1409 00:48:38,549 --> 00:48:37,680 but i will say this what drew me to this 1410 00:48:41,030 --> 00:48:38,559 project 1411 00:48:43,349 --> 00:48:41,040 was something that we have talked about 1412 00:48:46,309 --> 00:48:43,359 on this episode a few times 1413 00:48:48,230 --> 00:48:46,319 and that is artificial intelligence 1414 00:48:49,670 --> 00:48:48,240 that's a cool approach that this show is 1415 00:48:52,549 --> 00:48:49,680 taking they're applying 1416 00:48:53,430 --> 00:48:52,559 artificial intelligence to witness 1417 00:48:55,910 --> 00:48:53,440 testimony 1418 00:48:56,710 --> 00:48:55,920 related to the roswell incident you know 1419 00:48:58,470 --> 00:48:56,720 assessing 1420 00:49:00,950 --> 00:48:58,480 based on video footage and things like 1421 00:49:02,069 --> 00:49:00,960 that whether or not we get an indication 1422 00:49:05,510 --> 00:49:02,079 of these people being 1423 00:49:06,390 --> 00:49:05,520 deceptive or truthful and so it's kind 1424 00:49:07,990 --> 00:49:06,400 of cool 1425 00:49:10,309 --> 00:49:08,000 and i can't wait to see the show and how 1426 00:49:11,510 --> 00:49:10,319 it comes out in determining 1427 00:49:13,190 --> 00:49:11,520 you know some of this key witness 1428 00:49:14,470 --> 00:49:13,200 testimony that we've all relied on for 1429 00:49:16,950 --> 00:49:14,480 so many years 1430 00:49:18,230 --> 00:49:16,960 for the roswell incident to see what the 1431 00:49:19,750 --> 00:49:18,240 ai technology 1432 00:49:21,349 --> 00:49:19,760 indicates you know if these people were 1433 00:49:23,750 --> 00:49:21,359 being truthful or deceptive 1434 00:49:25,670 --> 00:49:23,760 so that should be kind of fun so yeah 1435 00:49:27,109 --> 00:49:25,680 the first three episodes drop on
