1 00:00:00,880 --> 00:00:04,710 on this episode of skeptico 2 00:00:10,709 --> 00:00:07,749 a show about what's going on in space 3 00:00:15,030 --> 00:00:12,549 it's what we call a global killer 4 00:00:16,470 --> 00:00:15,040 nothing would survive not even bacteria 5 00:00:19,189 --> 00:00:16,480 in a scene straight out of the movie 6 00:00:21,750 --> 00:00:19,199 armageddon real-life nasa scientists are 7 00:00:24,550 --> 00:00:21,760 going to ram a spacecraft into one 8 00:00:28,870 --> 00:00:24,560 massive asteroid 9 00:00:30,550 --> 00:00:28,880 and 788 thousand years ago 10 00:00:32,150 --> 00:00:30,560 again for this very reason that they 11 00:00:35,110 --> 00:00:32,160 they understood this appeared to be 12 00:00:36,870 --> 00:00:35,120 already glass and to come from space so 13 00:00:39,270 --> 00:00:36,880 a lot of the nasa guys were arguing this 14 00:00:40,869 --> 00:00:39,280 had to be lunar material that theory 15 00:00:43,270 --> 00:00:40,879 collapsed when we retrieved lunar 16 00:00:45,270 --> 00:00:43,280 materials and realized it did not mesh 17 00:00:47,029 --> 00:00:45,280 but their argument was very sound one of 18 00:00:48,630 --> 00:00:47,039 the guys actually said well look what 19 00:00:50,549 --> 00:00:48,640 about if you came from interplanetary 20 00:00:51,750 --> 00:00:50,559 space or somewhere further out well 21 00:00:53,430 --> 00:00:51,760 that's the problem nobody take that 22 00:00:55,750 --> 00:00:53,440 seriously because 23 00:00:58,709 --> 00:00:55,760 what's the chances that it ends up in a 24 00:01:02,229 --> 00:00:58,719 geocentric orbit 25 00:01:04,869 --> 00:01:02,239 that first clip was from the today show 26 00:01:07,990 --> 00:01:04,879 and the second one was from today's 27 00:01:10,390 --> 00:01:08,000 guest bruce fenton who you've heard on 28 00:01:12,789 --> 00:01:10,400 this show before and i can pretty much 29 00:01:14,789 --> 00:01:12,799 guarantee you you will hear from him 30 00:01:17,429 --> 00:01:14,799 again he's doing 31 00:01:20,429 --> 00:01:17,439 i think just about the most important 32 00:01:21,990 --> 00:01:20,439 scientific research into 33 00:01:25,109 --> 00:01:22,000 etufo 34 00:01:27,429 --> 00:01:25,119 the phenomenon if you will then well 35 00:01:30,069 --> 00:01:27,439 really just about anyone else i can 36 00:01:31,429 --> 00:01:30,079 think of and i think the reason for that 37 00:01:33,510 --> 00:01:31,439 comes through 38 00:01:36,230 --> 00:01:33,520 in this interview 39 00:01:38,390 --> 00:01:36,240 stick around it's a good one 40 00:01:40,550 --> 00:01:38,400 welcome to skeptico where we explore 41 00:01:42,950 --> 00:01:40,560 controversial science and spirituality 42 00:01:44,469 --> 00:01:42,960 with leading researchers thinkers and 43 00:01:47,270 --> 00:01:44,479 their critics 44 00:01:51,030 --> 00:01:47,280 today we welcome back bruce fenton to 45 00:01:52,950 --> 00:01:51,040 skeptico bruce is the author of several 46 00:01:54,429 --> 00:01:52,960 books i pulled up one of them you can 47 00:01:58,069 --> 00:01:54,439 find on amazon 48 00:02:01,109 --> 00:01:58,079 exogenesis hybrid humans a scientific 49 00:02:02,789 --> 00:02:01,119 history of extraterrestrial 50 00:02:05,270 --> 00:02:02,799 what's the rest of that 51 00:02:06,389 --> 00:02:05,280 genetic manipulation 52 00:02:07,590 --> 00:02:06,399 there's a couple other books you're 53 00:02:10,070 --> 00:02:07,600 going to want to check out i won't 54 00:02:13,110 --> 00:02:10,080 bother reading all of those into the 55 00:02:15,510 --> 00:02:13,120 show but into africa hybrid humans 56 00:02:18,869 --> 00:02:15,520 and then bruce and i a couple years ago 57 00:02:20,830 --> 00:02:18,879 because i met bruce through skeptico and 58 00:02:24,229 --> 00:02:20,840 i was so blown 59 00:02:27,589 --> 00:02:24,239 away at the quality and importance of 60 00:02:29,270 --> 00:02:27,599 this work that i took upon myself to do 61 00:02:31,670 --> 00:02:29,280 a little 62 00:02:32,710 --> 00:02:31,680 movie we did and here it is on prime viv 63 00:02:35,430 --> 00:02:32,720 video 64 00:02:38,390 --> 00:02:35,440 you can watch it 780 000 years 65 00:02:40,790 --> 00:02:38,400 our alien origin story 66 00:02:44,790 --> 00:02:40,800 so go check that out if you want bruce 67 00:02:46,390 --> 00:02:44,800 gets a couple little pennies if you do 68 00:02:48,229 --> 00:02:46,400 but his work 69 00:02:50,470 --> 00:02:48,239 i i just have to give this little bit of 70 00:02:52,070 --> 00:02:50,480 introduction bruce and 71 00:02:53,350 --> 00:02:52,080 you've been on the show a couple times 72 00:02:54,790 --> 00:02:53,360 people can find you a lot of different 73 00:02:58,070 --> 00:02:54,800 places 74 00:03:00,149 --> 00:02:58,080 but like where i want to go with this 75 00:03:01,670 --> 00:03:00,159 is really 76 00:03:03,350 --> 00:03:01,680 help people understand why i think 77 00:03:05,589 --> 00:03:03,360 you're one of the top 78 00:03:09,190 --> 00:03:05,599 ufo researchers in the world 79 00:03:10,790 --> 00:03:09,200 and why i think that is like makes you 80 00:03:13,270 --> 00:03:10,800 one of the top 81 00:03:15,190 --> 00:03:13,280 scientists in the world and i think 82 00:03:18,149 --> 00:03:15,200 that's really hard for people to swallow 83 00:03:19,509 --> 00:03:18,159 it sounds like hype it sounds like gosh 84 00:03:21,350 --> 00:03:19,519 i've never heard of this guy or this 85 00:03:23,350 --> 00:03:21,360 guy's just you know he's so minor you 86 00:03:26,550 --> 00:03:23,360 know how can you say that well let me 87 00:03:28,710 --> 00:03:26,560 explain my logic because i think it will 88 00:03:30,470 --> 00:03:28,720 play into the show in a couple of 89 00:03:31,509 --> 00:03:30,480 important ways so 90 00:03:34,229 --> 00:03:31,519 let's say you're going to take a big 91 00:03:35,910 --> 00:03:34,239 picture view of the ufo issue 92 00:03:38,949 --> 00:03:35,920 biggest possible picture you could take 93 00:03:40,789 --> 00:03:38,959 you'd say okay do ufos exist 94 00:03:42,630 --> 00:03:40,799 where do they come from 95 00:03:44,390 --> 00:03:42,640 what do they want 96 00:03:45,990 --> 00:03:44,400 right so these three would probably be 97 00:03:46,949 --> 00:03:46,000 the biggest biggest questions you could 98 00:03:49,110 --> 00:03:46,959 ask 99 00:03:51,110 --> 00:03:49,120 and i would suggest 100 00:03:54,229 --> 00:03:51,120 that unless you're willing to really 101 00:03:57,270 --> 00:03:54,239 take a stab at answering those questions 102 00:03:58,149 --> 00:03:57,280 in a scientific way 103 00:04:00,949 --> 00:03:58,159 then 104 00:04:03,670 --> 00:04:00,959 you can't answer all the other questions 105 00:04:08,149 --> 00:04:03,680 that seem to dominate this discussion 106 00:04:11,509 --> 00:04:08,159 disclosure lou elizondo atif abductions 107 00:04:13,110 --> 00:04:11,519 good et vad et grays versus lizards 108 00:04:15,589 --> 00:04:13,120 all that stuff 109 00:04:17,349 --> 00:04:15,599 you can't answer unless you answer those 110 00:04:20,069 --> 00:04:17,359 big picture questions 111 00:04:22,950 --> 00:04:20,079 now what i'm leading up to is bruce more 112 00:04:27,189 --> 00:04:22,960 than anyone i've come in contact with 113 00:04:29,670 --> 00:04:27,199 has directly tried to apply science 114 00:04:32,790 --> 00:04:29,680 to those big picture questions and he 115 00:04:34,790 --> 00:04:32,800 does it just brilliantly in this book 116 00:04:36,710 --> 00:04:34,800 but he also does it in 117 00:04:39,909 --> 00:04:36,720 his other presentations that he's given 118 00:04:42,230 --> 00:04:39,919 and all his papers and stuff like that 119 00:04:44,350 --> 00:04:42,240 so that's what makes this so important 120 00:04:47,909 --> 00:04:44,360 is that here's a guy who's 121 00:04:51,430 --> 00:04:47,919 scientifically taken a stab at research 122 00:04:53,990 --> 00:04:51,440 that directly gets at even if it doesn't 123 00:04:56,550 --> 00:04:54,000 answer all those questions completely it 124 00:04:57,749 --> 00:04:56,560 moves us towards an answer to those 125 00:05:00,629 --> 00:04:57,759 questions 126 00:05:02,469 --> 00:05:00,639 that can then let us answer 127 00:05:03,510 --> 00:05:02,479 those other questions 128 00:05:05,430 --> 00:05:03,520 so 129 00:05:07,430 --> 00:05:05,440 what do you think of that bruce i know 130 00:05:08,950 --> 00:05:07,440 that's kind of hard to ask you to 131 00:05:11,670 --> 00:05:08,960 comment on that 132 00:05:13,670 --> 00:05:11,680 but i think that is in your core when i 133 00:05:16,950 --> 00:05:13,680 hear you talk is that 134 00:05:19,749 --> 00:05:16,960 you really are searching for 135 00:05:22,070 --> 00:05:19,759 scientific evidence that drills into 136 00:05:23,749 --> 00:05:22,080 these big picture questions that we so 137 00:05:25,909 --> 00:05:23,759 often just gloss over and assume that 138 00:05:27,430 --> 00:05:25,919 they're that that we either know or 139 00:05:28,790 --> 00:05:27,440 they're impossible to answer or any of 140 00:05:29,990 --> 00:05:28,800 the rest of that you have any comment on 141 00:05:31,990 --> 00:05:30,000 that 142 00:05:33,510 --> 00:05:32,000 yeah sure i mean i've seen you know some 143 00:05:35,990 --> 00:05:33,520 accolades if you've thrown there so i 144 00:05:38,550 --> 00:05:36,000 mean um because gives me some pause to 145 00:05:40,390 --> 00:05:38,560 thought to how i would look i see myself 146 00:05:43,270 --> 00:05:40,400 certainly as trying to apply 147 00:05:45,749 --> 00:05:43,280 the scientific method to extraordinary 148 00:05:48,310 --> 00:05:45,759 and anomalous areas of thought you know 149 00:05:50,230 --> 00:05:48,320 and those those little mysteries on the 150 00:05:52,710 --> 00:05:50,240 edges of you know 151 00:05:54,950 --> 00:05:52,720 consensus uh understanding of science 152 00:05:56,790 --> 00:05:54,960 and consensus culture if you like um the 153 00:05:59,510 --> 00:05:56,800 anomalies you know what appealed to me 154 00:06:02,309 --> 00:05:59,520 you know those scientific anomalies so i 155 00:06:05,110 --> 00:06:02,319 would say i've been on a journey from 156 00:06:06,309 --> 00:06:05,120 probably being quite credulous like you 157 00:06:09,909 --> 00:06:06,319 know a lot of people go into those kind 158 00:06:12,550 --> 00:06:09,919 of areas you know accepting a lot of um 159 00:06:15,029 --> 00:06:12,560 of conjecture and a lot of strange 160 00:06:16,710 --> 00:06:15,039 hypotheses that didn't have much 161 00:06:17,590 --> 00:06:16,720 substance to a point where i realized 162 00:06:18,870 --> 00:06:17,600 that 163 00:06:20,469 --> 00:06:18,880 to really 164 00:06:24,309 --> 00:06:20,479 make an impact 165 00:06:26,550 --> 00:06:24,319 you you have to be able to explain 166 00:06:28,469 --> 00:06:26,560 all of the evidence 167 00:06:31,189 --> 00:06:28,479 you know all the different constituent 168 00:06:33,270 --> 00:06:31,199 parts of a topic you have to understand 169 00:06:34,710 --> 00:06:33,280 them in a framework broader into where 170 00:06:37,110 --> 00:06:34,720 topics link with each other you have to 171 00:06:39,909 --> 00:06:37,120 understand this vast web behind 172 00:06:41,670 --> 00:06:39,919 something like say human origins or uh 173 00:06:43,350 --> 00:06:41,680 lost parts of history that you can't 174 00:06:44,629 --> 00:06:43,360 just say look at the pyramid on its own 175 00:06:46,550 --> 00:06:44,639 and say you know wow look at that 176 00:06:48,390 --> 00:06:46,560 mystery you have to understand say 177 00:06:50,629 --> 00:06:48,400 prehistoric cultures the rise of 178 00:06:52,790 --> 00:06:50,639 culturalizing civilizations uh how 179 00:06:54,870 --> 00:06:52,800 people could have flowed out of the you 180 00:06:57,270 --> 00:06:54,880 know original areas where modern humans 181 00:06:58,629 --> 00:06:57,280 arose you know you started this 182 00:07:01,029 --> 00:06:58,639 vast 183 00:07:02,629 --> 00:07:01,039 matrix a context for these kind of 184 00:07:04,230 --> 00:07:02,639 mysteries and that's where i've been 185 00:07:06,070 --> 00:07:04,240 taken to is is understanding all of 186 00:07:08,469 --> 00:07:06,080 these data points and bringing them 187 00:07:11,430 --> 00:07:08,479 together and of course that's really is 188 00:07:13,670 --> 00:07:11,440 part of the scientific process is to 189 00:07:16,230 --> 00:07:13,680 take all of the evidence and find the 190 00:07:18,790 --> 00:07:16,240 hypothesis that fits with all of it and 191 00:07:20,790 --> 00:07:18,800 explains the outstanding anomalies right 192 00:07:22,309 --> 00:07:20,800 and that that's where i'm at so i would 193 00:07:23,909 --> 00:07:22,319 say yes i'm applying science although 194 00:07:25,990 --> 00:07:23,919 i'm not a 195 00:07:29,110 --> 00:07:26,000 credentialed scientist you know i have 196 00:07:32,309 --> 00:07:29,120 an i.t diploma i don't have a you know a 197 00:07:35,270 --> 00:07:32,319 phd in any of the hard sciences 198 00:07:37,749 --> 00:07:35,280 i'm applying that scientific method now 199 00:07:41,430 --> 00:07:37,759 to areas that traditionally have been 200 00:07:44,070 --> 00:07:41,440 left as areas of pure speculation mostly 201 00:07:46,790 --> 00:07:44,080 or have been the focus of what i'd say 202 00:07:49,510 --> 00:07:46,800 is fairly lackluster debunking by 203 00:07:51,830 --> 00:07:49,520 scientists who haven't taken the time to 204 00:07:54,790 --> 00:07:51,840 really explore all of the evidence but 205 00:07:57,350 --> 00:07:54,800 focus more on the problematic 206 00:07:59,110 --> 00:07:57,360 um speculative theories that on offer 207 00:08:01,270 --> 00:07:59,120 which are often are quite easily 208 00:08:02,869 --> 00:08:01,280 dismissed quite honestly 209 00:08:05,589 --> 00:08:02,879 and so i i think i have stepped into a 210 00:08:07,189 --> 00:08:05,599 kind of a strange niche there where 211 00:08:09,189 --> 00:08:07,199 there's very few people that are 212 00:08:11,270 --> 00:08:09,199 actually applying the scientific method 213 00:08:14,309 --> 00:08:11,280 to seeing whether the 214 00:08:16,710 --> 00:08:14,319 strange hypotheses on offer actually 215 00:08:19,270 --> 00:08:16,720 make sense rather than just dismissing 216 00:08:21,110 --> 00:08:19,280 them or ignoring these topics in in 217 00:08:23,510 --> 00:08:21,120 entirety so 218 00:08:25,670 --> 00:08:23,520 in the field of anomalous science 219 00:08:27,189 --> 00:08:25,680 yes i probably am 220 00:08:27,990 --> 00:08:27,199 one of the 221 00:08:35,750 --> 00:08:28,000 the 222 00:08:38,230 --> 00:08:35,760 bruce let me interject because here's 223 00:08:40,070 --> 00:08:38,240 what i see on your path that i find 224 00:08:41,990 --> 00:08:40,080 interesting and i think anyone who 225 00:08:43,909 --> 00:08:42,000 appreciates the application of the 226 00:08:46,310 --> 00:08:43,919 scientific method by people like 227 00:08:48,230 --> 00:08:46,320 yourself is that 228 00:08:49,430 --> 00:08:48,240 i see you looking at all these anomalies 229 00:08:52,389 --> 00:08:49,440 like you're talking about with these 230 00:08:54,389 --> 00:08:52,399 previous books and in your journey with 231 00:08:56,389 --> 00:08:54,399 your wife danny who is 232 00:08:58,230 --> 00:08:56,399 co-author of these books and is 233 00:09:00,710 --> 00:08:58,240 brilliant in her own writing but we 234 00:09:02,630 --> 00:09:00,720 spoke to danny when we did the film 235 00:09:05,590 --> 00:09:02,640 but here's what i really like i get 236 00:09:08,389 --> 00:09:05,600 excited about in this book exogenesis 237 00:09:09,590 --> 00:09:08,399 hybrid humans you found 238 00:09:12,150 --> 00:09:09,600 a case 239 00:09:15,350 --> 00:09:12,160 and then you sunk your teeth into it 240 00:09:17,670 --> 00:09:15,360 because you found it as a vehicle for 241 00:09:20,230 --> 00:09:17,680 tying all these things together so it's 242 00:09:21,750 --> 00:09:20,240 not like you went looking but i think so 243 00:09:24,070 --> 00:09:21,760 few people understand this i was just 244 00:09:26,310 --> 00:09:24,080 listening to an interview you gave and 245 00:09:27,910 --> 00:09:26,320 the guy who is this pretty prominent ufo 246 00:09:29,590 --> 00:09:27,920 community he just couldn't wrap his head 247 00:09:31,750 --> 00:09:29,600 around it because he was so skeptical 248 00:09:33,350 --> 00:09:31,760 not skeptical but just like no you know 249 00:09:36,230 --> 00:09:33,360 that doesn't add up that doesn't prove 250 00:09:37,509 --> 00:09:36,240 it this way and instead what i saw is 251 00:09:40,070 --> 00:09:37,519 like no 252 00:09:42,470 --> 00:09:40,080 what bruce has done is exactly what 253 00:09:44,389 --> 00:09:42,480 somebody needs to do kind of 254 00:09:46,949 --> 00:09:44,399 go through all these little pieces on 255 00:09:50,070 --> 00:09:46,959 the ground until you find one piece 256 00:09:52,150 --> 00:09:50,080 that really unlocks it and then dig into 257 00:09:54,070 --> 00:09:52,160 that piece and keep digging into it and 258 00:09:55,750 --> 00:09:54,080 then look at the tectites and look at 259 00:09:57,910 --> 00:09:55,760 the flow and look at the silicon and 260 00:09:59,910 --> 00:09:57,920 look at how they fall and then trash 261 00:10:01,350 --> 00:09:59,920 that trace that back to the time period 262 00:10:03,350 --> 00:10:01,360 so 263 00:10:05,590 --> 00:10:03,360 let me see if if that 264 00:10:09,030 --> 00:10:05,600 resonates with you in terms of 265 00:10:12,389 --> 00:10:09,040 this case that really becomes the focus 266 00:10:14,150 --> 00:10:12,399 of so much of your work and 267 00:10:16,230 --> 00:10:14,160 how important do you think that case is 268 00:10:17,910 --> 00:10:16,240 how different is it and then of course 269 00:10:19,269 --> 00:10:17,920 we have to give people a thumbnail 270 00:10:21,829 --> 00:10:19,279 sketch and go back and tell them what 271 00:10:24,069 --> 00:10:21,839 that what that case is and how you went 272 00:10:25,990 --> 00:10:24,079 about proving it in a scientific way and 273 00:10:27,750 --> 00:10:26,000 i know that's a four hour thing but 274 00:10:29,190 --> 00:10:27,760 we'll just try and 275 00:10:30,790 --> 00:10:29,200 we'll try and shut 276 00:10:32,710 --> 00:10:30,800 close it down as quick as you can so we 277 00:10:35,750 --> 00:10:32,720 can then talk about the new developments 278 00:10:38,150 --> 00:10:35,760 that you're bringing us just lately 279 00:10:40,550 --> 00:10:38,160 yeah absolutely i mean it's um for me 280 00:10:43,030 --> 00:10:40,560 there is no doubt that the 281 00:10:45,430 --> 00:10:43,040 the the case dealt with in exogenesis 282 00:10:48,150 --> 00:10:45,440 hybrid humans you know this uh events of 283 00:10:50,389 --> 00:10:48,160 788 thousand years ago approximately 284 00:10:53,430 --> 00:10:50,399 that these events are uh 285 00:10:55,350 --> 00:10:53,440 without parallel the most important um 286 00:10:58,310 --> 00:10:55,360 sets of events that i've personally 287 00:11:00,470 --> 00:10:58,320 looked into you know so again beckley 288 00:11:01,910 --> 00:11:00,480 teppy and pyramids and you know the 289 00:11:03,829 --> 00:11:01,920 movements of early humans they dealt 290 00:11:04,790 --> 00:11:03,839 with in my obviously previous book which 291 00:11:06,790 --> 00:11:04,800 i think you know is really important 292 00:11:07,990 --> 00:11:06,800 rewriting uh rest out of africa and 293 00:11:09,269 --> 00:11:08,000 people would say well that's massive you 294 00:11:11,590 --> 00:11:09,279 know if you've really done that that's 295 00:11:13,509 --> 00:11:11,600 huge and i'd say well yeah that's quite 296 00:11:15,910 --> 00:11:13,519 important but it's nothing on this so 297 00:11:18,069 --> 00:11:15,920 that gives perhaps some kind of scale as 298 00:11:20,230 --> 00:11:18,079 to how big i think it is i think most 299 00:11:21,990 --> 00:11:20,240 people in certain sciences would say or 300 00:11:24,230 --> 00:11:22,000 rewriting recent out of africa you know 301 00:11:25,910 --> 00:11:24,240 that's paradigm changing that's massive 302 00:11:27,310 --> 00:11:25,920 i now realize that compared to what i'm 303 00:11:29,350 --> 00:11:27,320 doing at the moment that's 304 00:11:31,590 --> 00:11:29,360 inconsequential you know yes it's 305 00:11:35,269 --> 00:11:31,600 interesting uh but it doesn't really 306 00:11:37,430 --> 00:11:35,279 change uh who we are as a species or 307 00:11:39,509 --> 00:11:37,440 really where we've come from you know 308 00:11:42,470 --> 00:11:39,519 it's uh it's an interesting change to 309 00:11:44,389 --> 00:11:42,480 the story but i i think what i'm dealing 310 00:11:46,389 --> 00:11:44,399 with now is something that you know it 311 00:11:49,110 --> 00:11:46,399 really would change the way we view 312 00:11:53,030 --> 00:11:49,120 ourselves and view it change the way we 313 00:11:55,509 --> 00:11:53,040 view the entire arc of human history 314 00:11:57,670 --> 00:11:55,519 from the very beginning of you know the 315 00:11:59,509 --> 00:11:57,680 this the species that gave rise to homo 316 00:12:02,230 --> 00:11:59,519 sapiens onwards 317 00:12:04,150 --> 00:12:02,240 and he said i can't really think of a 318 00:12:06,230 --> 00:12:04,160 human-centric story that would be bigger 319 00:12:07,670 --> 00:12:06,240 than that you know you can have a cosmic 320 00:12:10,069 --> 00:12:07,680 story that's bigger you know maybe the 321 00:12:11,509 --> 00:12:10,079 rise of the universe or is there god and 322 00:12:13,190 --> 00:12:11,519 you know there's the massive cosmic 323 00:12:15,590 --> 00:12:13,200 questions right but if we're talking 324 00:12:18,230 --> 00:12:15,600 about human beings 325 00:12:20,230 --> 00:12:18,240 then this story for me 326 00:12:22,150 --> 00:12:20,240 is the biggest one imaginable it's the 327 00:12:24,949 --> 00:12:22,160 it's the entire arc of 328 00:12:27,350 --> 00:12:24,959 what made us us uh what was what was the 329 00:12:29,110 --> 00:12:27,360 environment like for us what was 330 00:12:32,790 --> 00:12:29,120 happening at the beginning of our story 331 00:12:34,870 --> 00:12:32,800 that makes uh all of this begin you know 332 00:12:37,990 --> 00:12:34,880 and of course that has 333 00:12:39,190 --> 00:12:38,000 ripple effects all the way down to now 334 00:12:41,269 --> 00:12:39,200 especially related to a lot of the 335 00:12:43,190 --> 00:12:41,279 extraordinary phenomena other topics 336 00:12:45,030 --> 00:12:43,200 ufos aliens experiences people are 337 00:12:47,269 --> 00:12:45,040 claiming they're having with alien type 338 00:12:49,190 --> 00:12:47,279 intelligence all of that stuff 339 00:12:51,750 --> 00:12:49,200 links back into this story the other 340 00:12:52,710 --> 00:12:51,760 thing i would interject because it even 341 00:12:54,790 --> 00:12:52,720 goes 342 00:12:56,629 --> 00:12:54,800 further than that if we could even say 343 00:12:59,350 --> 00:12:56,639 that and that doesn't sound 344 00:13:01,590 --> 00:12:59,360 but it also kind of sets the clock a 345 00:13:03,590 --> 00:13:01,600 little bit both in terms of which is 346 00:13:05,670 --> 00:13:03,600 super important to say okay now the 347 00:13:09,110 --> 00:13:05,680 scale we have to start looking at things 348 00:13:11,590 --> 00:13:09,120 788 000 years ago boom that instantly 349 00:13:13,269 --> 00:13:11,600 puts a different perspective on 350 00:13:14,870 --> 00:13:13,279 you know what we're worried about today 351 00:13:16,470 --> 00:13:14,880 and disclosure in the sense you're like 352 00:13:18,389 --> 00:13:16,480 wait a minute we have to look at a 353 00:13:19,990 --> 00:13:18,399 completely different time scale but the 354 00:13:21,030 --> 00:13:20,000 other thing that resetting the clock 355 00:13:23,430 --> 00:13:21,040 does 356 00:13:26,389 --> 00:13:23,440 in a very kind of uh 357 00:13:29,110 --> 00:13:26,399 amazing way but also kind of a scary way 358 00:13:30,470 --> 00:13:29,120 is it resets where we are in that 359 00:13:33,750 --> 00:13:30,480 timeline 360 00:13:36,470 --> 00:13:33,760 so we are at the verge of 361 00:13:38,470 --> 00:13:36,480 really using silicone to develop not 362 00:13:40,310 --> 00:13:38,480 only computers but maybe a craft you 363 00:13:42,069 --> 00:13:40,320 know we're on the edge of that 364 00:13:44,550 --> 00:13:42,079 we're on the edge of 365 00:13:46,550 --> 00:13:44,560 genetic transhumanism you know isn't 366 00:13:48,230 --> 00:13:46,560 that so even if we look at our history 367 00:13:49,509 --> 00:13:48,240 that we've recorded you know a thousand 368 00:13:50,629 --> 00:13:49,519 years two thousand years five thousand 369 00:13:54,230 --> 00:13:50,639 years whatever you think we have 370 00:13:57,350 --> 00:13:54,240 recorded in history now your work 371 00:13:59,590 --> 00:13:57,360 puts that into a frame of reference that 372 00:14:01,990 --> 00:13:59,600 is exciting and also uncomfortable 373 00:14:03,189 --> 00:14:02,000 because it says you are at the cusp of 374 00:14:04,389 --> 00:14:03,199 something 375 00:14:05,350 --> 00:14:04,399 that 376 00:14:08,069 --> 00:14:05,360 do you get what i'm saying what do you 377 00:14:09,590 --> 00:14:08,079 think about it yeah um i think that the 378 00:14:11,509 --> 00:14:09,600 phrase would come to mind is you know 379 00:14:13,829 --> 00:14:11,519 history never repeats but it certainly 380 00:14:17,269 --> 00:14:13,839 rhymes because i i think that we are in 381 00:14:19,189 --> 00:14:17,279 a kind of a cyclical um temporal flow 382 00:14:22,310 --> 00:14:19,199 but maybe not quite a circle but a kind 383 00:14:25,670 --> 00:14:22,320 of a spiral so that we are seeing 384 00:14:26,870 --> 00:14:25,680 a repeating flavor of events so we're 385 00:14:28,790 --> 00:14:26,880 not necessary and right back to the 386 00:14:30,949 --> 00:14:28,800 beginning of the human story but we're 387 00:14:33,189 --> 00:14:30,959 seeing things that were occurring at the 388 00:14:35,110 --> 00:14:33,199 beginning of the story occurring now as 389 00:14:37,189 --> 00:14:35,120 we reach a kind of a transition point 390 00:14:38,949 --> 00:14:37,199 for humans again you know so we're 391 00:14:41,350 --> 00:14:38,959 dealing with a very ancient human 392 00:14:44,629 --> 00:14:41,360 transition point and now we can see 393 00:14:46,629 --> 00:14:44,639 elements of it a mirrored today as we 394 00:14:48,870 --> 00:14:46,639 enter another kind of transition point 395 00:14:50,710 --> 00:14:48,880 for human beings and you know as you 396 00:14:52,629 --> 00:14:50,720 said some of these the indications of 397 00:14:55,430 --> 00:14:52,639 the same kind of technologies that i'm 398 00:14:57,590 --> 00:14:55,440 looking at in my work we're seeing now 399 00:14:59,670 --> 00:14:57,600 coming into view again 400 00:15:00,550 --> 00:14:59,680 from human hands you know again deal 401 00:15:03,350 --> 00:15:00,560 with 402 00:15:04,230 --> 00:15:03,360 silica-based technologies you know ai 403 00:15:07,189 --> 00:15:04,240 um 404 00:15:08,389 --> 00:15:07,199 modifying beings using technologies uh 405 00:15:09,590 --> 00:15:08,399 all of these things that you know a 406 00:15:13,030 --> 00:15:09,600 tackle there we can see these are 407 00:15:14,470 --> 00:15:13,040 becoming really poignant central issues 408 00:15:16,389 --> 00:15:14,480 today you know because we've got 409 00:15:19,189 --> 00:15:16,399 warnings that ai 410 00:15:21,590 --> 00:15:19,199 probably represents the biggest 411 00:15:23,110 --> 00:15:21,600 existential threat to humans for a start 412 00:15:24,470 --> 00:15:23,120 which you know can feel like elon musk 413 00:15:26,629 --> 00:15:24,480 who you're not involved in that so you 414 00:15:28,389 --> 00:15:26,639 know that you know we've almost 415 00:15:29,670 --> 00:15:28,399 missed the boat on trying to deal with 416 00:15:32,069 --> 00:15:29,680 that because it's got to a point where 417 00:15:32,949 --> 00:15:32,079 the you know the pandora's box is open 418 00:15:34,870 --> 00:15:32,959 um 419 00:15:36,629 --> 00:15:34,880 nearly all the greatest minds that are 420 00:15:39,269 --> 00:15:36,639 coming out of university today are going 421 00:15:42,150 --> 00:15:39,279 into these fields into ai and into the 422 00:15:45,829 --> 00:15:42,160 technology fields right so there's an 423 00:15:47,749 --> 00:15:45,839 exponential increase in how fast that 424 00:15:49,430 --> 00:15:47,759 topic is going to you know move forward 425 00:15:51,670 --> 00:15:49,440 now because it's no longer case if it's 426 00:15:55,910 --> 00:15:51,680 something people saw as a background 427 00:15:58,470 --> 00:15:55,920 field now it's a really the front 428 00:16:00,389 --> 00:15:58,480 of technology and a friend of mighty is 429 00:16:02,069 --> 00:16:00,399 this idea you know ai doing everything 430 00:16:03,749 --> 00:16:02,079 right the exact same thing is true when 431 00:16:05,350 --> 00:16:03,759 you get into genetics 432 00:16:08,870 --> 00:16:05,360 and even when you 433 00:16:12,310 --> 00:16:08,880 particularly when you look at hey take 434 00:16:13,829 --> 00:16:12,320 genetics take globalism 435 00:16:15,910 --> 00:16:13,839 one world government 436 00:16:18,150 --> 00:16:15,920 really so on a political level you know 437 00:16:21,030 --> 00:16:18,160 if you start thinking along the thinking 438 00:16:22,790 --> 00:16:21,040 that exogenesis brings us then you start 439 00:16:24,829 --> 00:16:22,800 asking questions like well how much 440 00:16:28,310 --> 00:16:24,839 sense does it make to have 441 00:16:30,389 --> 00:16:28,320 146 governments on a planet versus 442 00:16:33,269 --> 00:16:30,399 so that's it and then you know you look 443 00:16:34,310 --> 00:16:33,279 at the bio weapon gene therapy thing and 444 00:16:37,110 --> 00:16:34,320 you go 445 00:16:40,550 --> 00:16:37,120 whoa you know now different ways to 446 00:16:41,430 --> 00:16:40,560 affect dna you know so we take 447 00:16:43,509 --> 00:16:41,440 like 448 00:16:45,509 --> 00:16:43,519 it's not just about 449 00:16:47,430 --> 00:16:45,519 you know the genetic modification in 450 00:16:49,990 --> 00:16:47,440 cloning and stuff like that it's about 451 00:16:53,030 --> 00:16:50,000 this whole burst of technological 452 00:16:55,509 --> 00:16:53,040 innovation surrounding genetics and 453 00:16:57,350 --> 00:16:55,519 again i'm not putting any value judgment 454 00:17:00,550 --> 00:16:57,360 on that for purposes of this 455 00:17:02,949 --> 00:17:00,560 conversation what i'm doing is 456 00:17:05,429 --> 00:17:02,959 really taking your work and saying how 457 00:17:08,150 --> 00:17:05,439 does your work give us a different 458 00:17:10,309 --> 00:17:08,160 perspective demand how does it demand 459 00:17:11,909 --> 00:17:10,319 that we take a different perspective on 460 00:17:13,750 --> 00:17:11,919 all of that 461 00:17:15,429 --> 00:17:13,760 well there's a couple of ways but one 462 00:17:18,870 --> 00:17:15,439 thing i'd highlight there is you know if 463 00:17:20,630 --> 00:17:18,880 we look at the way that technologies are 464 00:17:22,710 --> 00:17:20,640 mixing with each other flow into each 465 00:17:25,189 --> 00:17:22,720 other and depend on each other i mean we 466 00:17:26,870 --> 00:17:25,199 can see now that the military machine 467 00:17:28,069 --> 00:17:26,880 you know is very caught up with the ai 468 00:17:29,909 --> 00:17:28,079 developments as well there's always been 469 00:17:31,669 --> 00:17:29,919 talk for years now ai generals i mean 470 00:17:34,630 --> 00:17:31,679 people don't understand what's happening 471 00:17:38,070 --> 00:17:34,640 here but we're we're moving towards ai 472 00:17:40,630 --> 00:17:38,080 that will be in control of drone weapons 473 00:17:41,909 --> 00:17:40,640 hypersonic crafts and at the same time 474 00:17:43,750 --> 00:17:41,919 who do people think that there's going 475 00:17:45,430 --> 00:17:43,760 to be running the genetic engineering do 476 00:17:47,909 --> 00:17:45,440 you really think that's human no so 477 00:17:50,630 --> 00:17:47,919 we're going to have ai doctors ai 478 00:17:53,110 --> 00:17:50,640 scientists ai genetic engineering right 479 00:17:56,230 --> 00:17:53,120 so ai that's in charge of re-engineering 480 00:17:58,230 --> 00:17:56,240 humans controlling our warfare right and 481 00:17:59,909 --> 00:17:58,240 essentially running all of our resources 482 00:18:02,390 --> 00:17:59,919 under this one world government so 483 00:18:04,470 --> 00:18:02,400 you're almost kind of engineering this 484 00:18:07,110 --> 00:18:04,480 god-like ai right so there's this 485 00:18:09,270 --> 00:18:07,120 spiritual dimension to it that it's you 486 00:18:10,470 --> 00:18:09,280 know that we are the jesus machina idea 487 00:18:12,230 --> 00:18:10,480 you know that there's god from the 488 00:18:14,710 --> 00:18:12,240 machine right and it's going to be doing 489 00:18:16,950 --> 00:18:14,720 all of this stuff and if you you arch 490 00:18:19,110 --> 00:18:16,960 back to 788 thousand years ago and 491 00:18:21,350 --> 00:18:19,120 obviously the work i've been doing we 492 00:18:24,230 --> 00:18:21,360 have this kind of story of what seems to 493 00:18:26,470 --> 00:18:24,240 be you know an ai that is connected to 494 00:18:28,150 --> 00:18:26,480 the beginnings of humans the engineering 495 00:18:31,350 --> 00:18:28,160 genetic engineering of humans is linked 496 00:18:33,190 --> 00:18:31,360 into a story of that and warfare um you 497 00:18:34,630 --> 00:18:33,200 know so we have that kind of repeating 498 00:18:35,830 --> 00:18:34,640 theme so though it's not saying it's 499 00:18:37,029 --> 00:18:35,840 exactly the same thing happening because 500 00:18:39,750 --> 00:18:37,039 we're dealing with what seems to be an 501 00:18:42,150 --> 00:18:39,760 external ai rather than a human 502 00:18:45,190 --> 00:18:42,160 engineered ai but again is this there's 503 00:18:47,830 --> 00:18:45,200 a resonance here this idea of of uh 504 00:18:50,950 --> 00:18:47,840 super intelligences that are able to 505 00:18:53,029 --> 00:18:50,960 come in and you know calculate what they 506 00:18:55,990 --> 00:18:53,039 think is best for humans 507 00:18:58,870 --> 00:18:56,000 modify us change the planet uh control 508 00:19:01,110 --> 00:18:58,880 resources here and you know conduct 509 00:19:02,710 --> 00:19:01,120 warfare potentially and so i think we 510 00:19:04,950 --> 00:19:02,720 are seeing an int you know an 511 00:19:06,789 --> 00:19:04,960 interlinking between the beginning and 512 00:19:08,390 --> 00:19:06,799 what could be the end at least an end of 513 00:19:10,789 --> 00:19:08,400 this chapter 514 00:19:14,070 --> 00:19:10,799 of humanity involving these super 515 00:19:16,549 --> 00:19:14,080 intelligences and the inter interlinking 516 00:19:19,110 --> 00:19:16,559 between technologies between these ais 517 00:19:20,950 --> 00:19:19,120 genetic engineering planetary control 518 00:19:21,990 --> 00:19:20,960 warfare so that's where i see it being 519 00:19:23,669 --> 00:19:22,000 very important so we could get this 520 00:19:25,909 --> 00:19:23,679 warning from the past and an 521 00:19:27,750 --> 00:19:25,919 understanding that just the direction 522 00:19:31,350 --> 00:19:27,760 that this is going in i think it can 523 00:19:33,590 --> 00:19:31,360 make us maybe maybe rethink and take a 524 00:19:34,710 --> 00:19:33,600 moment of pause before we you know steam 525 00:19:36,230 --> 00:19:34,720 ahead 526 00:19:37,510 --> 00:19:36,240 well we'll see about that because 527 00:19:39,510 --> 00:19:37,520 there's a couple of different ways to 528 00:19:41,270 --> 00:19:39,520 interpret the story but i guess 529 00:19:42,789 --> 00:19:41,280 in typical skeptical fashion we've 530 00:19:44,630 --> 00:19:42,799 jumped right to the inside baseball 531 00:19:46,630 --> 00:19:44,640 stuff which is great love it wouldn't do 532 00:19:49,270 --> 00:19:46,640 it any other way but maybe you better 533 00:19:52,950 --> 00:19:49,280 pull back and give people the five 534 00:19:56,870 --> 00:19:52,960 minute thumbnail sketch of what happened 535 00:19:58,789 --> 00:19:56,880 uh how this how this research came to be 536 00:20:00,630 --> 00:19:58,799 yeah i mean it's quite you know it's a 537 00:20:03,590 --> 00:20:00,640 destroying story so the first part of 538 00:20:05,350 --> 00:20:03,600 this is you know i stumbled on a set of 539 00:20:07,669 --> 00:20:05,360 claims so people aren't familiar with 540 00:20:09,750 --> 00:20:07,679 this you know there was a set of claims 541 00:20:13,590 --> 00:20:09,760 made back in the 542 00:20:16,070 --> 00:20:13,600 early 1990s of an interaction between 543 00:20:17,590 --> 00:20:16,080 an aboriginal elder with jerry bostock 544 00:20:19,110 --> 00:20:17,600 and a 545 00:20:20,950 --> 00:20:19,120 well english origin 546 00:20:23,190 --> 00:20:20,960 lady in australia called valerie barrow 547 00:20:25,029 --> 00:20:23,200 who had uh an interaction with what's 548 00:20:27,029 --> 00:20:25,039 considered to be a sacred aboriginal 549 00:20:29,750 --> 00:20:27,039 artifact called a charinga 550 00:20:31,029 --> 00:20:29,760 now this is you know extraordinary and 551 00:20:32,630 --> 00:20:31,039 mind-bending stories most people will 552 00:20:33,990 --> 00:20:32,640 discount immediately so which i'll 553 00:20:37,029 --> 00:20:34,000 understand but we'll come to why they 554 00:20:39,029 --> 00:20:37,039 shouldn't and this artifact seemingly 555 00:20:41,270 --> 00:20:39,039 was able to transfer information a kind 556 00:20:43,029 --> 00:20:41,280 of a history of humanity and these would 557 00:20:45,029 --> 00:20:43,039 be traditionally these are an artifact 558 00:20:47,110 --> 00:20:45,039 they're kept as a holy of holies a 559 00:20:49,590 --> 00:20:47,120 sacred is sacred you know away from the 560 00:20:51,990 --> 00:20:49,600 regular people in the indigenous tribes 561 00:20:54,549 --> 00:20:52,000 that have law around charingas and 562 00:20:57,350 --> 00:20:54,559 there's a few dotted around uh uluru 563 00:20:59,190 --> 00:20:57,360 area um there's 564 00:21:01,190 --> 00:20:59,200 several different you know nations that 565 00:21:03,350 --> 00:21:01,200 have a history relating to these things 566 00:21:05,029 --> 00:21:03,360 and they say that they were left here in 567 00:21:06,710 --> 00:21:05,039 the the beginning time in what we'd 568 00:21:08,070 --> 00:21:06,720 think of as the dream time or they 569 00:21:09,830 --> 00:21:08,080 called the charinga time or the 570 00:21:11,990 --> 00:21:09,840 outringer time sorry and so these 571 00:21:14,710 --> 00:21:12,000 charingas linked to this altering the 572 00:21:17,430 --> 00:21:14,720 time and altering the beings who were 573 00:21:19,830 --> 00:21:17,440 involved in the creation of animals 574 00:21:21,510 --> 00:21:19,840 humans parts of the landscape so a kind 575 00:21:23,190 --> 00:21:21,520 of you know terraformers genetic 576 00:21:26,470 --> 00:21:23,200 engineers that are non-human 577 00:21:29,110 --> 00:21:26,480 intelligence that were here long ago and 578 00:21:31,750 --> 00:21:29,120 left these artifacts now they say that 579 00:21:33,350 --> 00:21:31,760 these artifacts are in some way alive 580 00:21:36,390 --> 00:21:33,360 that they are actually these outrigger 581 00:21:39,909 --> 00:21:36,400 beings transformed into these permanent 582 00:21:41,990 --> 00:21:39,919 bodies so small portable kind of silica 583 00:21:44,630 --> 00:21:42,000 artifacts before you go there because 584 00:21:45,909 --> 00:21:44,640 it's great but uh to just kind of set 585 00:21:48,149 --> 00:21:45,919 this up 586 00:21:50,470 --> 00:21:48,159 because you said this before but this 587 00:21:53,430 --> 00:21:50,480 story is so dense and so important 588 00:21:56,230 --> 00:21:53,440 you are predisposed to become 589 00:21:59,510 --> 00:21:56,240 super interested in this and then 590 00:22:02,870 --> 00:21:59,520 predisposed to unpeel the onion in the 591 00:22:05,110 --> 00:22:02,880 layers that you did because you had this 592 00:22:07,669 --> 00:22:05,120 incredible background where you had been 593 00:22:09,750 --> 00:22:07,679 exploring these anomalies all over the 594 00:22:12,230 --> 00:22:09,760 world and you had other kind of 595 00:22:13,590 --> 00:22:12,240 non-ordinary experiences that kind of 596 00:22:15,909 --> 00:22:13,600 pushed you along that and we don't have 597 00:22:17,110 --> 00:22:15,919 time to go into all those but just 598 00:22:19,990 --> 00:22:17,120 briefly 599 00:22:22,630 --> 00:22:20,000 you know you are predisposed to when you 600 00:22:25,270 --> 00:22:22,640 hear this and this is also published in 601 00:22:26,630 --> 00:22:25,280 a book later on to pursue it so just 602 00:22:28,230 --> 00:22:26,640 cover that real briefly because it's 603 00:22:29,190 --> 00:22:28,240 important yeah no no that's right 604 00:22:32,789 --> 00:22:29,200 because i mean a lot of people would 605 00:22:35,909 --> 00:22:32,799 simply disregard that immediately right 606 00:22:38,390 --> 00:22:35,919 um so unless you have some reason to 607 00:22:39,669 --> 00:22:38,400 think that such a series of events could 608 00:22:41,350 --> 00:22:39,679 be possible 609 00:22:42,870 --> 00:22:41,360 you probably would go no further than 610 00:22:45,909 --> 00:22:42,880 that right it'd just be this strange 611 00:22:48,149 --> 00:22:45,919 story that you heard and maybe poo poo 612 00:22:50,710 --> 00:22:48,159 it but because i've had yeah years and 613 00:22:53,430 --> 00:22:50,720 years of uh first of all an interesting 614 00:22:56,549 --> 00:22:53,440 ancient mysteries the anomalies of 615 00:22:58,950 --> 00:22:56,559 science so supernormal experiences uh 616 00:23:01,029 --> 00:22:58,960 you know the whole gamut of strange 617 00:23:02,870 --> 00:23:01,039 phenomena you know first of all i'm very 618 00:23:04,710 --> 00:23:02,880 interested in any account that 619 00:23:06,390 --> 00:23:04,720 has elements like that but secondly i've 620 00:23:08,230 --> 00:23:06,400 had a lot of my own very strange 621 00:23:10,149 --> 00:23:08,240 experiences including you know psychic 622 00:23:13,110 --> 00:23:10,159 phenomena um 623 00:23:15,110 --> 00:23:13,120 an anomalous kinds of events that makes 624 00:23:18,230 --> 00:23:15,120 me predisposed to listen to people and i 625 00:23:20,070 --> 00:23:18,240 don't necessarily believe word for word 626 00:23:21,990 --> 00:23:20,080 everything someone tells me you know 627 00:23:24,310 --> 00:23:22,000 they tell me a strange experience but i 628 00:23:25,909 --> 00:23:24,320 look at it as i'm i believe that 629 00:23:27,430 --> 00:23:25,919 they believe something extraordinary has 630 00:23:28,870 --> 00:23:27,440 happened to them you know if they have a 631 00:23:30,310 --> 00:23:28,880 compelling 632 00:23:32,470 --> 00:23:30,320 way of delivering it you know and the 633 00:23:35,029 --> 00:23:32,480 story sounds like it could be real i i 634 00:23:37,190 --> 00:23:35,039 give people the benefit of the doubt but 635 00:23:40,070 --> 00:23:37,200 of course to actually take it on very 636 00:23:42,070 --> 00:23:40,080 seriously i want some evidence right so 637 00:23:43,590 --> 00:23:42,080 you know then to move from i believe you 638 00:23:46,070 --> 00:23:43,600 believe and that's your interpretation 639 00:23:47,350 --> 00:23:46,080 of the event to actually i think this is 640 00:23:48,950 --> 00:23:47,360 quite accurate you know there's another 641 00:23:51,350 --> 00:23:48,960 transition that has to occur but 642 00:23:53,350 --> 00:23:51,360 certainly for me to even take it 643 00:23:54,789 --> 00:23:53,360 seriously you know i think it's been 644 00:23:56,149 --> 00:23:54,799 important to have gone through that 645 00:23:57,750 --> 00:23:56,159 journey you know when my partner 646 00:23:58,870 --> 00:23:57,760 obviously she's a shamanic healer you 647 00:24:00,470 --> 00:23:58,880 know i know she's had all kinds of 648 00:24:02,390 --> 00:24:00,480 extraordinary events you know because 649 00:24:04,230 --> 00:24:02,400 you know i live with her 650 00:24:05,909 --> 00:24:04,240 making up stories thinking about her 651 00:24:08,470 --> 00:24:05,919 experiences she has you know altered the 652 00:24:10,470 --> 00:24:08,480 states of astral experiences um she 653 00:24:11,830 --> 00:24:10,480 works as a professional psychic you know 654 00:24:13,510 --> 00:24:11,840 on the phone so people say you know cold 655 00:24:15,909 --> 00:24:13,520 reading you can't call read people on 656 00:24:18,230 --> 00:24:15,919 telephones and you know for emails with 657 00:24:20,310 --> 00:24:18,240 accurate you know information um and 658 00:24:22,710 --> 00:24:20,320 also still that for me so and i've had 659 00:24:24,470 --> 00:24:22,720 my own experiences with uh mediumship i 660 00:24:26,789 --> 00:24:24,480 trained for a short period as a 661 00:24:28,549 --> 00:24:26,799 spiritual medium uh and i've had sort of 662 00:24:30,789 --> 00:24:28,559 psychical experiences so what sounds 663 00:24:31,990 --> 00:24:30,799 like kind of telepathic type experience 664 00:24:33,190 --> 00:24:32,000 in this you know a transfer of 665 00:24:35,830 --> 00:24:33,200 information from 666 00:24:39,430 --> 00:24:35,840 some kind of intelligence to the mind of 667 00:24:41,190 --> 00:24:39,440 this individual for me is believable 668 00:24:43,110 --> 00:24:41,200 because i've had experiences where 669 00:24:45,990 --> 00:24:43,120 there's been a transfer of information 670 00:24:48,070 --> 00:24:46,000 to my mind from either other people or 671 00:24:50,149 --> 00:24:48,080 from other intelligences so i can 672 00:24:52,390 --> 00:24:50,159 understand these things happen you know 673 00:24:54,230 --> 00:24:52,400 no matter how strange they sound awesome 674 00:24:56,390 --> 00:24:54,240 so now i want to pick back up on the 675 00:24:57,990 --> 00:24:56,400 story because again bruce this is an 676 00:24:59,830 --> 00:24:58,000 awesome conversation i love these kind 677 00:25:01,909 --> 00:24:59,840 of conversations i don't know if people 678 00:25:03,909 --> 00:25:01,919 can follow it i just have to do it the 679 00:25:05,430 --> 00:25:03,919 way that seems to organically spring to 680 00:25:07,590 --> 00:25:05,440 mind there's such an interesting 681 00:25:09,510 --> 00:25:07,600 crossover point here because you're 682 00:25:11,190 --> 00:25:09,520 talking about uh 683 00:25:14,789 --> 00:25:11,200 one you're talking about shamanic 684 00:25:17,669 --> 00:25:14,799 experiences that the aboriginal native 685 00:25:19,269 --> 00:25:17,679 people in australia are having and then 686 00:25:21,350 --> 00:25:19,279 but you're also then and you're talking 687 00:25:23,110 --> 00:25:21,360 about your own experiences of 688 00:25:25,830 --> 00:25:23,120 communication in this extended 689 00:25:27,750 --> 00:25:25,840 consciousness realm that doesn't involve 690 00:25:30,230 --> 00:25:27,760 technology but then what you're 691 00:25:33,590 --> 00:25:30,240 introducing us to as well is the 692 00:25:36,070 --> 00:25:33,600 possibility that in this case this 693 00:25:37,510 --> 00:25:36,080 communication this non-ordinary 694 00:25:39,909 --> 00:25:37,520 communication 695 00:25:41,269 --> 00:25:39,919 we have to be open to the possibility 696 00:25:42,789 --> 00:25:41,279 that it is 697 00:25:43,750 --> 00:25:42,799 technology 698 00:25:45,669 --> 00:25:43,760 driven 699 00:25:48,470 --> 00:25:45,679 so there's a real interesting crossover 700 00:25:50,710 --> 00:25:48,480 point but jump over to that other side 701 00:25:54,830 --> 00:25:50,720 and tell us why you are willing to 702 00:25:57,830 --> 00:25:54,840 speculate that this particular charinga 703 00:25:59,990 --> 00:25:57,840 communication had a technology 704 00:26:02,310 --> 00:26:00,000 basis to it 705 00:26:04,149 --> 00:26:02,320 sure you know they the thing really 706 00:26:05,990 --> 00:26:04,159 stood out to me is that there is a you 707 00:26:07,830 --> 00:26:06,000 know in this field of sort of space 708 00:26:09,029 --> 00:26:07,840 sciences you know there's been a lot of 709 00:26:11,510 --> 00:26:09,039 um 710 00:26:13,510 --> 00:26:11,520 speculative thinking on what what would 711 00:26:15,029 --> 00:26:13,520 we look for from an alien intelligence 712 00:26:17,029 --> 00:26:15,039 you know what might they be doing that 713 00:26:18,870 --> 00:26:17,039 we could um kind of find 714 00:26:20,789 --> 00:26:18,880 some compelling evidence of them and one 715 00:26:23,110 --> 00:26:20,799 of them one of the suggestions is that 716 00:26:25,029 --> 00:26:23,120 you know out there intelligences may be 717 00:26:26,630 --> 00:26:25,039 exploring the cosmos using their 718 00:26:28,230 --> 00:26:26,640 technologies you know the same way that 719 00:26:30,230 --> 00:26:28,240 we are just beginning to you know we 720 00:26:32,070 --> 00:26:30,240 want to send out solar sails and we're 721 00:26:33,909 --> 00:26:32,080 sending out micro probes the size of 722 00:26:36,149 --> 00:26:33,919 mobile phones is a new plan to explore 723 00:26:37,510 --> 00:26:36,159 planets and oceans right so we can 724 00:26:38,870 --> 00:26:37,520 imagine that there's probably 725 00:26:40,710 --> 00:26:38,880 civilizations out there that have done 726 00:26:42,950 --> 00:26:40,720 similar things and and if they've had 727 00:26:46,149 --> 00:26:42,960 enough time that they could send quite 728 00:26:48,070 --> 00:26:46,159 advanced robots and ai probes and all 729 00:26:49,590 --> 00:26:48,080 the rest out into space running their 730 00:26:52,630 --> 00:26:49,600 own kind of search for extraterrestrial 731 00:26:55,110 --> 00:26:52,640 intelligence utilizing these autonomous 732 00:26:57,909 --> 00:26:55,120 robots you know autonomous ai 733 00:27:00,230 --> 00:26:57,919 now this is of course speculative but it 734 00:27:01,909 --> 00:27:00,240 makes a lot of sense so we have a class 735 00:27:04,630 --> 00:27:01,919 of objects they call some brace world 736 00:27:07,029 --> 00:27:04,640 probes for the scientist bracelet ronald 737 00:27:07,750 --> 00:27:07,039 bracewell uh there's also 738 00:27:10,390 --> 00:27:07,760 the 739 00:27:11,590 --> 00:27:10,400 uh von neumann probes which 740 00:27:13,830 --> 00:27:11,600 familiar von neumann a lot of people say 741 00:27:16,230 --> 00:27:13,840 von neumann was linked into the ufo 742 00:27:18,070 --> 00:27:16,240 program and into very deep black 743 00:27:19,590 --> 00:27:18,080 projects as well connected to the idea 744 00:27:20,470 --> 00:27:19,600 of there being some kind of intelligence 745 00:27:22,389 --> 00:27:20,480 interacting with us which is quite 746 00:27:24,310 --> 00:27:22,399 compelling interesting in itself but 747 00:27:26,230 --> 00:27:24,320 these two guys both theorized that there 748 00:27:28,149 --> 00:27:26,240 may be these kind of autonomous ai 749 00:27:31,190 --> 00:27:28,159 probes that could go out explore the 750 00:27:32,710 --> 00:27:31,200 universe would be essentially immortal 751 00:27:35,029 --> 00:27:32,720 maybe even have this what they call them 752 00:27:36,630 --> 00:27:35,039 self-repair that's volume self-repair so 753 00:27:39,190 --> 00:27:36,640 they can fix themselves if they're 754 00:27:40,630 --> 00:27:39,200 damaged uh mine planet services build 755 00:27:43,510 --> 00:27:40,640 more copies of themselves all sorts of 756 00:27:45,990 --> 00:27:43,520 ideas around this kind of um brace for a 757 00:27:47,669 --> 00:27:46,000 probe idea now there's also a particular 758 00:27:49,909 --> 00:27:47,679 class of brace world probe that is 759 00:27:52,789 --> 00:27:49,919 called a sentinel probe and so these 760 00:27:54,950 --> 00:27:52,799 would be sent out to sit either you know 761 00:27:57,669 --> 00:27:54,960 on a surface of a planet or perhaps in 762 00:27:58,710 --> 00:27:57,679 orbit and could record any information 763 00:28:00,149 --> 00:27:58,720 you know record anything that's 764 00:28:01,350 --> 00:28:00,159 happening in the biosphere so they 765 00:28:03,590 --> 00:28:01,360 detect an interesting planet with a 766 00:28:07,510 --> 00:28:03,600 biosphere say let's say for example like 767 00:28:10,630 --> 00:28:07,520 earth earth has had a visible detectable 768 00:28:12,870 --> 00:28:10,640 oxygen signature for two billion years 769 00:28:15,510 --> 00:28:12,880 so if anyone's out there is looking for 770 00:28:18,070 --> 00:28:15,520 biospheres that oxygen signature would 771 00:28:20,230 --> 00:28:18,080 be really interesting so we can imagine 772 00:28:21,990 --> 00:28:20,240 many civilizations sending probes 773 00:28:23,750 --> 00:28:22,000 towards earth over two billion years 774 00:28:26,230 --> 00:28:23,760 that's plenty of time so if any of the 775 00:28:28,870 --> 00:28:26,240 skeptics say oh it's a long way two 776 00:28:30,070 --> 00:28:28,880 billion years is a long time right so 777 00:28:31,750 --> 00:28:30,080 there's been plenty of time for these 778 00:28:33,430 --> 00:28:31,760 probes to arrive here a brace or 779 00:28:36,310 --> 00:28:33,440 sentinel probe then could just sit and 780 00:28:38,870 --> 00:28:36,320 wait and if a you know a civilization if 781 00:28:41,990 --> 00:28:38,880 you know life evolves and a civilization 782 00:28:44,549 --> 00:28:42,000 forms that these could be in theory you 783 00:28:47,590 --> 00:28:44,559 know instructed to eventually make 784 00:28:50,230 --> 00:28:47,600 contact with a civilization and act as 785 00:28:52,870 --> 00:28:50,240 the inter-misery of the original alien 786 00:28:54,630 --> 00:28:52,880 civilization that sounds kind of sci-fi 787 00:28:56,070 --> 00:28:54,640 but it's also a lot you know logic to a 788 00:28:57,909 --> 00:28:56,080 lot of sense and we can kind of see 789 00:28:59,750 --> 00:28:57,919 ourselves humans heading in the 790 00:29:02,149 --> 00:28:59,760 direction of doing these kinds of 791 00:29:04,149 --> 00:29:02,159 projects ourselves right when we're not 792 00:29:04,950 --> 00:29:04,159 far off doing this 793 00:29:06,789 --> 00:29:04,960 so 794 00:29:08,549 --> 00:29:06,799 when you then hear about an artifact 795 00:29:09,590 --> 00:29:08,559 sort of silica small artifact that's 796 00:29:11,269 --> 00:29:09,600 probably 797 00:29:13,669 --> 00:29:11,279 is linked to the idea beginnings of 798 00:29:15,909 --> 00:29:13,679 times very ancient is sitting there you 799 00:29:18,630 --> 00:29:15,919 know somewhere in australia and it 800 00:29:20,389 --> 00:29:18,640 activates and makes contact with people 801 00:29:21,669 --> 00:29:20,399 and starts telling them in fact actually 802 00:29:23,510 --> 00:29:21,679 one of the theories is that these things 803 00:29:25,350 --> 00:29:23,520 might have a whole history of humanity 804 00:29:27,350 --> 00:29:25,360 and when they make contact share this 805 00:29:30,070 --> 00:29:27,360 with us and so when you hear a story 806 00:29:31,830 --> 00:29:30,080 where that's exactly what happens 807 00:29:33,830 --> 00:29:31,840 that's kind of like the alarm bells 808 00:29:36,070 --> 00:29:33,840 should start ringing also let me go back 809 00:29:40,230 --> 00:29:36,080 and make sure we 810 00:29:41,990 --> 00:29:40,240 and we add to the fact of the mythology 811 00:29:44,549 --> 00:29:42,000 air quotes on that one 812 00:29:47,750 --> 00:29:44,559 surrounded with this object 813 00:29:50,070 --> 00:29:47,760 it is sacred of sacred uh the other 814 00:29:52,230 --> 00:29:50,080 thing you said super interesting that i 815 00:29:54,710 --> 00:29:52,240 think relates to this story maybe in a 816 00:29:56,950 --> 00:29:54,720 way that we'll get to is that 817 00:29:58,389 --> 00:29:56,960 don't tell everybody about this because 818 00:30:01,029 --> 00:29:58,399 they won't get it 819 00:30:03,110 --> 00:30:01,039 is that again when you said rhyme you 820 00:30:06,549 --> 00:30:03,120 know does that rhyme with our current 821 00:30:08,789 --> 00:30:06,559 age when we have people who think the 822 00:30:10,870 --> 00:30:08,799 world is flat you know we have people 823 00:30:13,590 --> 00:30:10,880 that drive around in their car 824 00:30:16,470 --> 00:30:13,600 by themselves with a mask on there's 825 00:30:19,669 --> 00:30:16,480 people there's a gulf that's getting 826 00:30:23,190 --> 00:30:19,679 wider and wider between people who are 827 00:30:25,510 --> 00:30:23,200 able to kind of process this kind of 828 00:30:28,630 --> 00:30:25,520 advanced knowledge and sort it out and 829 00:30:31,110 --> 00:30:28,640 those who just who just can't and so i'd 830 00:30:32,230 --> 00:30:31,120 wonder from one from a 831 00:30:34,630 --> 00:30:32,240 you could kind of take the whole thing 832 00:30:37,029 --> 00:30:34,640 as mythology but also from a practical 833 00:30:39,669 --> 00:30:37,039 standpoint wouldn't that be the way that 834 00:30:42,389 --> 00:30:39,679 you would handle advanced information 835 00:30:44,789 --> 00:30:42,399 you'd say look you know just kind of be 836 00:30:46,710 --> 00:30:44,799 careful who you share this with kind of 837 00:30:50,230 --> 00:30:46,720 thing and that's the 838 00:30:51,029 --> 00:30:50,240 story that comes along with this object 839 00:30:55,269 --> 00:30:51,039 yeah 840 00:30:57,509 --> 00:30:55,279 know carl sagan kind of warned of that 841 00:31:00,870 --> 00:30:57,519 you know with a a population that has 842 00:31:02,149 --> 00:31:00,880 been essentially dumbed down and is no 843 00:31:04,389 --> 00:31:02,159 longer 844 00:31:06,789 --> 00:31:04,399 everyone but the the direction of travel 845 00:31:08,070 --> 00:31:06,799 is the drumming down of the population 846 00:31:10,950 --> 00:31:08,080 and so they have 847 00:31:12,630 --> 00:31:10,960 scientific illiteracy and so that they 848 00:31:14,710 --> 00:31:12,640 no longer stand the technologies that 849 00:31:16,470 --> 00:31:14,720 are being brought out and that suits 850 00:31:18,149 --> 00:31:16,480 the political elite you know that suits 851 00:31:20,310 --> 00:31:18,159 the governing league that because that 852 00:31:22,389 --> 00:31:20,320 allows for anyone who does understand 853 00:31:24,230 --> 00:31:22,399 these things to come along and take 854 00:31:26,630 --> 00:31:24,240 control and to manipulate and take 855 00:31:27,909 --> 00:31:26,640 advantage so we're in a situation where 856 00:31:30,230 --> 00:31:27,919 a very small number of people would 857 00:31:32,389 --> 00:31:30,240 really understand uh what the 858 00:31:34,310 --> 00:31:32,399 capabilities of our technologies are and 859 00:31:35,750 --> 00:31:34,320 this direction of travel and that you 860 00:31:37,110 --> 00:31:35,760 know how this sort of scenario would 861 00:31:39,029 --> 00:31:37,120 make sense a lot of people just sound 862 00:31:40,630 --> 00:31:39,039 like oh you know absolutely bonkers but 863 00:31:43,029 --> 00:31:40,640 there would be people sitting in you 864 00:31:45,190 --> 00:31:43,039 know black projects and in top 865 00:31:46,549 --> 00:31:45,200 universities who absolutely are looking 866 00:31:48,230 --> 00:31:46,559 for these things you know thinking 867 00:31:50,149 --> 00:31:48,240 that's what we should be seeing let me 868 00:31:52,070 --> 00:31:50,159 just interject one more point because i 869 00:31:53,990 --> 00:31:52,080 think this is also where 870 00:31:56,470 --> 00:31:54,000 this important research that you're 871 00:31:59,350 --> 00:31:56,480 doing doing takes us because if we are 872 00:32:02,230 --> 00:31:59,360 going to use this as a way to step back 873 00:32:05,590 --> 00:32:02,240 and re-examine everything i think i 874 00:32:08,870 --> 00:32:05,600 immediately go to the evil black budget 875 00:32:11,190 --> 00:32:08,880 government kind of thing and i say okay 876 00:32:13,110 --> 00:32:11,200 but really isn't that a natural 877 00:32:15,830 --> 00:32:13,120 consequence of 878 00:32:17,750 --> 00:32:15,840 what you would have to do right you you 879 00:32:20,149 --> 00:32:17,760 have this gulf like 880 00:32:21,990 --> 00:32:20,159 that like you're saying the dumbing down 881 00:32:24,470 --> 00:32:22,000 forget about dumbing down i don't know 882 00:32:26,470 --> 00:32:24,480 that there really is that that evidence 883 00:32:28,149 --> 00:32:26,480 that we've been significantly dumbed 884 00:32:30,389 --> 00:32:28,159 down particularly if you look at a 885 00:32:32,870 --> 00:32:30,399 longer lens of history you know we're 886 00:32:36,070 --> 00:32:32,880 certainly much more advanced than people 887 00:32:38,389 --> 00:32:36,080 100 years ago 200 years ago so 888 00:32:40,630 --> 00:32:38,399 maybe this is again the timeline thing 889 00:32:42,789 --> 00:32:40,640 maybe this is the natural progression 890 00:32:45,669 --> 00:32:42,799 and maybe the natural progression is 891 00:32:49,590 --> 00:32:45,679 that gap just gets loud uh larger and 892 00:32:53,669 --> 00:32:49,600 larger and in order to effectively 893 00:32:57,029 --> 00:32:53,679 protect civilization you naturally go to 894 00:32:58,230 --> 00:32:57,039 black budget secret projects and uh 895 00:33:01,269 --> 00:32:58,240 hidden democrat you know forget 896 00:33:03,190 --> 00:33:01,279 democracy just kind of rule by 897 00:33:05,110 --> 00:33:03,200 the elites kind of thing i'm not saying 898 00:33:07,509 --> 00:33:05,120 i want that i'm not saying i vote in 899 00:33:10,470 --> 00:33:07,519 favor of that i'm saying doesn't this 900 00:33:13,190 --> 00:33:10,480 research cause us to maybe say wow how 901 00:33:14,470 --> 00:33:13,200 would how did they do it how would we do 902 00:33:16,389 --> 00:33:14,480 it differently kind of thing you have 903 00:33:17,509 --> 00:33:16,399 any thoughts on that 904 00:33:19,269 --> 00:33:17,519 yeah i mean it's you know it's 905 00:33:20,470 --> 00:33:19,279 interesting the 906 00:33:21,990 --> 00:33:20,480 the angler 907 00:33:24,389 --> 00:33:22,000 how could we have a better model and you 908 00:33:25,909 --> 00:33:24,399 know is that the best model for humanity 909 00:33:29,029 --> 00:33:25,919 because you know 910 00:33:30,750 --> 00:33:29,039 i do recognize and again from 911 00:33:34,149 --> 00:33:30,760 researching widely you know in a 912 00:33:36,710 --> 00:33:34,159 multi-disciplinary kind of fashion that 913 00:33:38,149 --> 00:33:36,720 not all human brains are the same now 914 00:33:39,750 --> 00:33:38,159 i'm not gonna there's no you can't say 915 00:33:42,630 --> 00:33:39,760 there's any racial group or something 916 00:33:44,190 --> 00:33:42,640 others do but we know now that across 917 00:33:46,870 --> 00:33:44,200 the board you have 918 00:33:50,149 --> 00:33:46,880 neurodiversity right you know i'm a 919 00:33:51,590 --> 00:33:50,159 person with dyslexia and asperger traits 920 00:33:53,430 --> 00:33:51,600 so i'm not the same as someone who 921 00:33:54,950 --> 00:33:53,440 doesn't have dyslexia that there are 922 00:33:56,549 --> 00:33:54,960 differences you know intellectual 923 00:33:59,029 --> 00:33:56,559 different differences because of 924 00:34:01,669 --> 00:33:59,039 structures in the brain there are people 925 00:34:03,750 --> 00:34:01,679 who are more capable of big picture 926 00:34:06,950 --> 00:34:03,760 thinking and of understanding the 927 00:34:08,950 --> 00:34:06,960 interlinking of subject now if 928 00:34:11,270 --> 00:34:08,960 some of those people decided that 929 00:34:13,990 --> 00:34:11,280 perhaps they felt they knew best and 930 00:34:16,230 --> 00:34:14,000 maybe in some ways they did know better 931 00:34:18,389 --> 00:34:16,240 than a lot of people you could imagine 932 00:34:20,710 --> 00:34:18,399 how they might work together to try and 933 00:34:22,629 --> 00:34:20,720 run the world in a certain way where 934 00:34:26,230 --> 00:34:22,639 they genuinely feel that they were 935 00:34:27,750 --> 00:34:26,240 uniquely qualified and capable to do it 936 00:34:30,790 --> 00:34:27,760 because they can see there are people 937 00:34:33,270 --> 00:34:30,800 who are incapable of that level of big 938 00:34:36,069 --> 00:34:33,280 picture thinking now it doesn't mean 939 00:34:38,869 --> 00:34:36,079 they've got it right but the underlying 940 00:34:40,869 --> 00:34:38,879 idea is actually kind of logical makes 941 00:34:43,510 --> 00:34:40,879 sense i can definitely see how it 942 00:34:45,829 --> 00:34:43,520 happens i can understand how networks of 943 00:34:47,349 --> 00:34:45,839 people form you know and we have these 944 00:34:49,669 --> 00:34:47,359 kind of secret societies where they 945 00:34:51,669 --> 00:34:49,679 carry information that they feel 946 00:34:53,909 --> 00:34:51,679 most people won't make use of and won't 947 00:34:56,470 --> 00:34:53,919 even understand but though at some point 948 00:34:58,630 --> 00:34:56,480 will be invaluable to their networks and 949 00:35:00,870 --> 00:34:58,640 so it's transitioned through to now and 950 00:35:02,950 --> 00:35:00,880 as things change in our society they can 951 00:35:04,790 --> 00:35:02,960 refer to that and say well that that's 952 00:35:06,310 --> 00:35:04,800 useful now we have the technology to 953 00:35:08,630 --> 00:35:06,320 make use of that and that could help 954 00:35:11,349 --> 00:35:08,640 form the world in a certain way that we 955 00:35:12,150 --> 00:35:11,359 think is for the best for the species 956 00:35:15,109 --> 00:35:12,160 right 957 00:35:16,630 --> 00:35:15,119 now the best of the species doesn't mean 958 00:35:18,150 --> 00:35:16,640 very nice things for all the individuals 959 00:35:19,589 --> 00:35:18,160 and that that's the problem you end up 960 00:35:21,190 --> 00:35:19,599 in a decision where 961 00:35:22,870 --> 00:35:21,200 you know it's a bit like the spock when 962 00:35:24,310 --> 00:35:22,880 they say you know for the greater good 963 00:35:25,829 --> 00:35:24,320 you know that sometimes what's it the 964 00:35:27,670 --> 00:35:25,839 needs of the many outweigh the needs of 965 00:35:28,870 --> 00:35:27,680 the few right and that's really 966 00:35:30,790 --> 00:35:28,880 problematic morally that's really 967 00:35:32,390 --> 00:35:30,800 problematic because what about the few 968 00:35:35,030 --> 00:35:32,400 aren't they equally important as the 969 00:35:37,430 --> 00:35:35,040 many and so you know you end up with 970 00:35:39,750 --> 00:35:37,440 this thing of it is it ever okay to sort 971 00:35:41,910 --> 00:35:39,760 of say well you know some people are 972 00:35:43,990 --> 00:35:41,920 gonna have to be thrown to the fire to 973 00:35:45,510 --> 00:35:44,000 make this perfect world and i think 974 00:35:46,870 --> 00:35:45,520 that's the situation we're in it is 975 00:35:48,230 --> 00:35:46,880 complex i know people don't like to 976 00:35:49,589 --> 00:35:48,240 think about that these people may 977 00:35:51,190 --> 00:35:49,599 generally think they're doing the best 978 00:35:54,310 --> 00:35:51,200 and because they feel they're uniquely 979 00:35:56,230 --> 00:35:54,320 qualified i i just uh and that that's 980 00:35:58,310 --> 00:35:56,240 also true from a scientific perspective 981 00:36:00,950 --> 00:35:58,320 and a lot of people i think who are uber 982 00:36:02,950 --> 00:36:00,960 logical rational and super smart can get 983 00:36:05,910 --> 00:36:02,960 to the same place just interviewed dr 984 00:36:07,990 --> 00:36:05,920 dean rayden love dr dean rayden so 985 00:36:10,390 --> 00:36:08,000 respect his work he's been on this show 986 00:36:12,470 --> 00:36:10,400 for 15 years and he comes on and he 987 00:36:14,150 --> 00:36:12,480 gives the transhumanism speech he's the 988 00:36:15,030 --> 00:36:14,160 guy who more than anyone else has kind 989 00:36:18,550 --> 00:36:15,040 of 990 00:36:21,750 --> 00:36:18,560 exposed the consciousness as an illusion 991 00:36:22,630 --> 00:36:21,760 uh conspiracy materialist science you 992 00:36:25,510 --> 00:36:22,640 know 993 00:36:27,750 --> 00:36:25,520 he his experiments six sigma results 994 00:36:29,430 --> 00:36:27,760 replicated around the world completely 995 00:36:32,150 --> 00:36:29,440 dispelled that but where does he come to 996 00:36:35,270 --> 00:36:32,160 at the end he goes hey uh i i you know 997 00:36:38,230 --> 00:36:35,280 genetic genetic modification in order to 998 00:36:40,710 --> 00:36:38,240 get us towards a hive mind like bees 999 00:36:43,030 --> 00:36:40,720 maybe that's not such a bad thing 1000 00:36:44,310 --> 00:36:43,040 and i played that and i was like 1001 00:36:47,510 --> 00:36:44,320 dean 1002 00:36:49,510 --> 00:36:47,520 but 1003 00:36:51,270 --> 00:36:49,520 so the point is whether you agree with 1004 00:36:53,270 --> 00:36:51,280 dean or whether you don't agree with 1005 00:36:54,470 --> 00:36:53,280 dean and i don't agree with dean for a 1006 00:36:57,430 --> 00:36:54,480 lot of other reasons 1007 00:36:59,589 --> 00:36:57,440 that uh what what to make of this from a 1008 00:37:03,349 --> 00:36:59,599 spiritual level i think has to come into 1009 00:37:06,390 --> 00:37:03,359 play but the point is super smart guy 1010 00:37:07,990 --> 00:37:06,400 super plugged in guy he's gotten 1011 00:37:10,069 --> 00:37:08,000 millions and probably hundreds of 1012 00:37:12,710 --> 00:37:10,079 millions of dollars behind him for this 1013 00:37:16,310 --> 00:37:12,720 latest startup that he's doing 1014 00:37:19,270 --> 00:37:16,320 that will actually operationalize 1015 00:37:21,750 --> 00:37:19,280 genetic engineering through the jab 1016 00:37:23,750 --> 00:37:21,760 through a different jab but a jab that 1017 00:37:25,510 --> 00:37:23,760 will make you more psychic that will 1018 00:37:28,710 --> 00:37:25,520 give you a hive mind 1019 00:37:31,030 --> 00:37:28,720 this is not this is not sci-fi folks go 1020 00:37:33,030 --> 00:37:31,040 listen to the interview 1021 00:37:35,510 --> 00:37:33,040 and go look at the fact that the guy is 1022 00:37:38,870 --> 00:37:35,520 at point moved from northern california 1023 00:37:40,550 --> 00:37:38,880 to bise to boise idaho to join forces 1024 00:37:44,390 --> 00:37:40,560 with another guy who's been doing this 1025 00:37:46,150 --> 00:37:44,400 research and they have a a biogenetic 1026 00:37:48,150 --> 00:37:46,160 startup i mean 1027 00:37:51,030 --> 00:37:48,160 this is what we're talking about here 1028 00:37:54,550 --> 00:37:51,040 bruce how this stuff intersects so with 1029 00:37:56,790 --> 00:37:54,560 that let's leap back into the story 1030 00:37:59,190 --> 00:37:56,800 hopefully people have a context of you 1031 00:38:02,310 --> 00:37:59,200 hear now that you're hearing this you're 1032 00:38:03,990 --> 00:38:02,320 hearing the tringa you're hearing uh you 1033 00:38:06,870 --> 00:38:04,000 know 1034 00:38:08,790 --> 00:38:06,880 so how do you go about here's the here's 1035 00:38:10,390 --> 00:38:08,800 the cool thing about your story how do 1036 00:38:11,829 --> 00:38:10,400 you go about 1037 00:38:13,670 --> 00:38:11,839 switching hats 1038 00:38:16,630 --> 00:38:13,680 putting on your science hat and say wait 1039 00:38:21,030 --> 00:38:16,640 a minute here's something i can sink my 1040 00:38:23,270 --> 00:38:21,040 teeth into as a scientist 1041 00:38:25,510 --> 00:38:23,280 yeah i mean it was um quite a transition 1042 00:38:27,349 --> 00:38:25,520 really because you know you go from 1043 00:38:28,870 --> 00:38:27,359 having some level of information that 1044 00:38:31,109 --> 00:38:28,880 suggests something may really have 1045 00:38:33,109 --> 00:38:31,119 happened now that's personally 1046 00:38:35,670 --> 00:38:33,119 compelling but if if you're going to go 1047 00:38:38,630 --> 00:38:35,680 out and say to people this extraordinary 1048 00:38:41,109 --> 00:38:38,640 thing really happened i mean that takes 1049 00:38:43,430 --> 00:38:41,119 a a whole different level of supporting 1050 00:38:45,270 --> 00:38:43,440 evidence and knowledge of a topic area 1051 00:38:48,230 --> 00:38:45,280 because of course you're going at some 1052 00:38:50,550 --> 00:38:48,240 point have to stand and defend your 1053 00:38:51,829 --> 00:38:50,560 claims against someone who is an expert 1054 00:38:54,150 --> 00:38:51,839 in some of the topics that you're 1055 00:38:55,510 --> 00:38:54,160 dealing with you know in a level where 1056 00:38:57,190 --> 00:38:55,520 you know they've maybe spent 20 years 1057 00:38:58,710 --> 00:38:57,200 looking at saying whether it's genetics 1058 00:39:01,510 --> 00:38:58,720 tech type somebody who spent their 1059 00:39:03,589 --> 00:39:01,520 career on that now at some point they're 1060 00:39:06,630 --> 00:39:03,599 going to say hang on a minute what's the 1061 00:39:08,470 --> 00:39:06,640 earth is he saying so unless you have a 1062 00:39:10,950 --> 00:39:08,480 very very deep knowledge you realize 1063 00:39:13,430 --> 00:39:10,960 that you're only going to kind of bring 1064 00:39:15,349 --> 00:39:13,440 on board the most open-minded people who 1065 00:39:17,349 --> 00:39:15,359 really already kind of thought the same 1066 00:39:18,950 --> 00:39:17,359 thing as you right they were already 1067 00:39:21,030 --> 00:39:18,960 convinced like yeah but we totally agree 1068 00:39:22,870 --> 00:39:21,040 i always knew it was that 1069 00:39:24,310 --> 00:39:22,880 well have you really convinced someone 1070 00:39:25,829 --> 00:39:24,320 then if they always knew it was that or 1071 00:39:29,109 --> 00:39:25,839 they just think he's all you know he's 1072 00:39:30,710 --> 00:39:29,119 come on board with me now so so i really 1073 00:39:32,630 --> 00:39:30,720 had to realize that that's not good 1074 00:39:34,230 --> 00:39:32,640 enough to have those people come on 1075 00:39:36,069 --> 00:39:34,240 board because they you know they don't 1076 00:39:38,630 --> 00:39:36,079 need any evidence from you really 1077 00:39:40,790 --> 00:39:38,640 so to get to those other people who 1078 00:39:43,190 --> 00:39:40,800 would benefit from that understanding 1079 00:39:44,870 --> 00:39:43,200 and who you feel it would be important 1080 00:39:46,390 --> 00:39:44,880 to have them look at it 1081 00:39:48,550 --> 00:39:46,400 you need to be able to drill down and 1082 00:39:51,270 --> 00:39:48,560 find okay so where is the most solid 1083 00:39:53,750 --> 00:39:51,280 evidence that supports my convictions or 1084 00:39:55,109 --> 00:39:53,760 my you know my direction of thinking 1085 00:39:59,030 --> 00:39:55,119 and that that 1086 00:40:01,270 --> 00:39:59,040 took really a deep dive going into 1087 00:40:04,150 --> 00:40:01,280 dozens and dozens of you know scientific 1088 00:40:05,670 --> 00:40:04,160 studies on these topics ranging from the 1089 00:40:07,349 --> 00:40:05,680 particularly on the tech type topic but 1090 00:40:09,030 --> 00:40:07,359 yes in genetic engineering you know 1091 00:40:11,990 --> 00:40:09,040 genetic engineering the genetics of 1092 00:40:13,270 --> 00:40:12,000 human beings you know paleogenomics 1093 00:40:15,430 --> 00:40:13,280 then of course into you know look 1094 00:40:17,670 --> 00:40:15,440 reading papers on ai you know the 1095 00:40:19,030 --> 00:40:17,680 theories of these graceful probes keep 1096 00:40:20,630 --> 00:40:19,040 pulling you in these other directions 1097 00:40:22,550 --> 00:40:20,640 and don't don't give you a chance to 1098 00:40:24,870 --> 00:40:22,560 kind of give this thumbnail sketch that 1099 00:40:27,990 --> 00:40:24,880 i know people hey if you're not familiar 1100 00:40:30,150 --> 00:40:28,000 with this work sorry you gotta go 1101 00:40:31,430 --> 00:40:30,160 read the book which you gotta do and 1102 00:40:33,349 --> 00:40:31,440 then you gotta go 1103 00:40:35,270 --> 00:40:33,359 watch the video that we did and then 1104 00:40:37,510 --> 00:40:35,280 this is like the next level kind of 1105 00:40:38,630 --> 00:40:37,520 stuff and i'm not gonna apologize for 1106 00:40:41,990 --> 00:40:38,640 that but 1107 00:40:45,430 --> 00:40:42,000 thumbnail sketch remind people the three 1108 00:40:48,470 --> 00:40:45,440 the three things you decided to focus on 1109 00:40:52,390 --> 00:40:48,480 that because again as a scientist 1110 00:40:55,270 --> 00:40:52,400 even knowing what questions to ask is is 1111 00:40:56,550 --> 00:40:55,280 so important so difficult to do so you 1112 00:40:58,870 --> 00:40:56,560 said okay 1113 00:41:01,670 --> 00:40:58,880 here are three things that i might 1114 00:41:04,550 --> 00:41:01,680 should be able to find if they're real 1115 00:41:06,950 --> 00:41:04,560 if i'm going to test my own theory in a 1116 00:41:09,430 --> 00:41:06,960 way that you just said i i could really 1117 00:41:11,109 --> 00:41:09,440 convince people what are the three give 1118 00:41:13,430 --> 00:41:11,119 us at the highlight before we go into 1119 00:41:16,710 --> 00:41:13,440 them dive into them sure absolutely so 1120 00:41:18,150 --> 00:41:16,720 amongst the claims from this account 1121 00:41:19,990 --> 00:41:18,160 were 1122 00:41:24,150 --> 00:41:20,000 this idea that first of all they'd been 1123 00:41:26,150 --> 00:41:24,160 an enormous craft a silica ai craft a 1124 00:41:27,589 --> 00:41:26,160 conscious craft flight that had arrived 1125 00:41:28,630 --> 00:41:27,599 here you know hundreds of thousands of 1126 00:41:31,589 --> 00:41:28,640 years ago 1127 00:41:33,910 --> 00:41:31,599 and that had been destroyed in orbit 1128 00:41:36,150 --> 00:41:33,920 showering down molten silica material 1129 00:41:37,990 --> 00:41:36,160 across the planet so that stood out i 1130 00:41:39,670 --> 00:41:38,000 thought that's big that's a big event 1131 00:41:41,750 --> 00:41:39,680 you know there could be some traces of 1132 00:41:44,470 --> 00:41:41,760 that so that was like number one 1133 00:41:46,829 --> 00:41:44,480 the the second one was there was an 1134 00:41:49,430 --> 00:41:46,839 account of there being a 1135 00:41:52,309 --> 00:41:49,440 engineered multi-directional asteroid 1136 00:41:55,190 --> 00:41:52,319 bombardment so kind of almost like a 1137 00:41:56,870 --> 00:41:55,200 a planetary um 1138 00:41:57,670 --> 00:41:56,880 re-engineering the system planets you 1139 00:41:59,589 --> 00:41:57,680 know on that scale you know it's 1140 00:42:02,069 --> 00:41:59,599 multiple objects hitting the planet's 1141 00:42:04,069 --> 00:42:02,079 surface but well that surely also you 1142 00:42:06,470 --> 00:42:04,079 know is going to leave some traces that 1143 00:42:09,030 --> 00:42:06,480 we can find geological records and 1144 00:42:10,550 --> 00:42:09,040 lastly this idea that you know human 1145 00:42:13,750 --> 00:42:10,560 beings had 1146 00:42:16,470 --> 00:42:13,760 an ancestor that had been genetically 1147 00:42:18,150 --> 00:42:16,480 re-engineered you know again in the same 1148 00:42:21,270 --> 00:42:18,160 period so all of these things also 1149 00:42:22,950 --> 00:42:21,280 happening tightly in time not just in 1150 00:42:25,670 --> 00:42:22,960 space on this planet 1151 00:42:29,030 --> 00:42:25,680 important point to interject here 1152 00:42:31,510 --> 00:42:29,040 these three points and a bunch of other 1153 00:42:34,390 --> 00:42:31,520 stuff is time stamped 1154 00:42:36,390 --> 00:42:34,400 from the charinga into a book that is 1155 00:42:38,069 --> 00:42:36,400 published that people can go back and 1156 00:42:39,829 --> 00:42:38,079 look at the original publication date i 1157 00:42:41,109 --> 00:42:39,839 think it's 2003. 1158 00:42:44,710 --> 00:42:41,119 explain 1159 00:42:46,470 --> 00:42:44,720 you pulled you off that story but we 1160 00:42:48,790 --> 00:42:46,480 have a timestamp of saying okay this is 1161 00:42:50,630 --> 00:42:48,800 the information that came through from 1162 00:42:53,670 --> 00:42:50,640 the bracewell probe 1163 00:42:57,030 --> 00:42:53,680 through the head of valerie burrow 1164 00:42:58,470 --> 00:42:57,040 right 2003 right and it lays it all out 1165 00:43:00,309 --> 00:42:58,480 yeah exactly so people can go away they 1166 00:43:02,390 --> 00:43:00,319 can read it you know el tringa when the 1167 00:43:04,950 --> 00:43:02,400 first ancestors were created and say yes 1168 00:43:07,190 --> 00:43:04,960 it's been out there since 2003 so it's 1169 00:43:08,870 --> 00:43:07,200 not just you know uh something that's 1170 00:43:11,030 --> 00:43:08,880 been verbally shared and that you know 1171 00:43:13,990 --> 00:43:11,040 be hard to confirm that this was 1172 00:43:15,589 --> 00:43:14,000 actually said long ago you know says out 1173 00:43:17,349 --> 00:43:15,599 there and that's important too because 1174 00:43:19,030 --> 00:43:17,359 of course people otherwise can say well 1175 00:43:21,589 --> 00:43:19,040 you know could be just fitting this 1176 00:43:23,349 --> 00:43:21,599 story to recent discoveries right that 1177 00:43:24,710 --> 00:43:23,359 somebody just oh come on i can make a 1178 00:43:26,710 --> 00:43:24,720 sort of story about that and do some 1179 00:43:28,870 --> 00:43:26,720 conferences also you know which 1180 00:43:30,950 --> 00:43:28,880 absolutely i i would understand those 1181 00:43:33,589 --> 00:43:30,960 kind of accusations but because we have 1182 00:43:36,150 --> 00:43:33,599 it already out there you know published 1183 00:43:38,470 --> 00:43:36,160 we're able to say well this account is 1184 00:43:40,390 --> 00:43:38,480 describing things that a person well if 1185 00:43:42,550 --> 00:43:40,400 they're real the person couldn't know by 1186 00:43:44,950 --> 00:43:42,560 conventional means say that because for 1187 00:43:46,230 --> 00:43:44,960 example this multi-directional asteroid 1188 00:43:48,950 --> 00:43:46,240 bombardment 1189 00:43:51,829 --> 00:43:48,960 yes there is an event like that but it 1190 00:43:52,710 --> 00:43:51,839 wasn't known until 2016. 1191 00:43:54,550 --> 00:43:52,720 so 1192 00:43:55,750 --> 00:43:54,560 that straight away is problematic for 1193 00:43:57,670 --> 00:43:55,760 people that say you know they're just 1194 00:44:00,790 --> 00:43:57,680 basing a story around known events well 1195 00:44:02,630 --> 00:44:00,800 that wasn't a known event um we also 1196 00:44:04,069 --> 00:44:02,640 have well really one interesting thing 1197 00:44:05,990 --> 00:44:04,079 is that in the book there's no mention 1198 00:44:08,230 --> 00:44:06,000 of you know australia textiles that i 1199 00:44:09,349 --> 00:44:08,240 focus on so again it's not fitting to 1200 00:44:11,750 --> 00:44:09,359 somebody's narrative there's a 1201 00:44:13,430 --> 00:44:11,760 description of a craft there's material 1202 00:44:15,270 --> 00:44:13,440 and what i found which isn't mentioned 1203 00:44:17,349 --> 00:44:15,280 that you know is that yes there is this 1204 00:44:18,630 --> 00:44:17,359 debris that fits the description so 1205 00:44:19,990 --> 00:44:18,640 again it's not someone else has made a 1206 00:44:21,829 --> 00:44:20,000 story saying these tech types were from 1207 00:44:23,990 --> 00:44:21,839 across you know i have found that they 1208 00:44:26,309 --> 00:44:24,000 mesh with the description 1209 00:44:28,390 --> 00:44:26,319 and the timing and then of course this 1210 00:44:30,550 --> 00:44:28,400 genetic engineering part which in some 1211 00:44:33,750 --> 00:44:30,560 ways is the most difficult to confirm 1212 00:44:35,750 --> 00:44:33,760 because you know we are at a point where 1213 00:44:38,870 --> 00:44:35,760 genetics and evolution are not fully 1214 00:44:40,630 --> 00:44:38,880 understood so someone could say well 1215 00:44:43,349 --> 00:44:40,640 maybe there's just some process we don't 1216 00:44:45,109 --> 00:44:43,359 understand okay which i accept but there 1217 00:44:47,510 --> 00:44:45,119 are anomalies 1218 00:44:49,430 --> 00:44:47,520 which are indicative of engineering in 1219 00:44:52,069 --> 00:44:49,440 the past at around that same time 1220 00:44:54,550 --> 00:44:52,079 because that's when the ancestors of 1221 00:44:55,270 --> 00:44:54,560 neanderthals denisovans and us 1222 00:44:57,109 --> 00:44:55,280 have 1223 00:44:59,510 --> 00:44:57,119 significant changes going on in the 1224 00:45:01,430 --> 00:44:59,520 genome that changed the brain massively 1225 00:45:03,109 --> 00:45:01,440 change our brain structure right so 1226 00:45:04,950 --> 00:45:03,119 that's having the same time so we have 1227 00:45:07,510 --> 00:45:04,960 these three things all having the same 1228 00:45:09,829 --> 00:45:07,520 time that are indicated in this account 1229 00:45:12,870 --> 00:45:09,839 okay and here's where it gets even more 1230 00:45:15,670 --> 00:45:12,880 super interesting because there's some 1231 00:45:18,150 --> 00:45:15,680 new science so you are 1232 00:45:20,710 --> 00:45:18,160 truly a scientist you're constantly 1233 00:45:22,950 --> 00:45:20,720 reading papers you're constantly taking 1234 00:45:25,190 --> 00:45:22,960 in new information you're testing it 1235 00:45:27,990 --> 00:45:25,200 testing it against the theory and one of 1236 00:45:30,710 --> 00:45:28,000 the things you alerted me to is that hey 1237 00:45:33,109 --> 00:45:30,720 alex i have looked into the tech type 1238 00:45:35,349 --> 00:45:33,119 thing and boom there's some new 1239 00:45:37,990 --> 00:45:35,359 information that i want to share and 1240 00:45:40,550 --> 00:45:38,000 it's more up to date similarly we're 1241 00:45:42,790 --> 00:45:40,560 going to talk in a minute about the uh 1242 00:45:45,510 --> 00:45:42,800 human acceleration regions and the 1243 00:45:46,470 --> 00:45:45,520 genetics associated with that again new 1244 00:45:48,790 --> 00:45:46,480 information 1245 00:45:50,790 --> 00:45:48,800 has come forward that has changed that 1246 00:45:54,230 --> 00:45:50,800 timeline in the way that we understand 1247 00:45:56,550 --> 00:45:54,240 it it happens to totally fit in your 1248 00:45:57,910 --> 00:45:56,560 theory so we're going to talk about both 1249 00:45:59,990 --> 00:45:57,920 of those 1250 00:46:02,710 --> 00:46:00,000 the the basics of it and then the new 1251 00:46:04,710 --> 00:46:02,720 science of it let's start with the 1252 00:46:06,550 --> 00:46:04,720 tektites 1253 00:46:08,710 --> 00:46:06,560 yeah absolutely so we've been working on 1254 00:46:10,550 --> 00:46:08,720 a paper about the text heights for quite 1255 00:46:13,270 --> 00:46:10,560 a while now um 1256 00:46:14,390 --> 00:46:13,280 what i realized is that to make an 1257 00:46:15,510 --> 00:46:14,400 argument 1258 00:46:16,790 --> 00:46:15,520 that 1259 00:46:17,670 --> 00:46:16,800 you know something really strong has 1260 00:46:20,230 --> 00:46:17,680 happened first of all you have to you 1261 00:46:23,030 --> 00:46:20,240 know what is the strongest 1262 00:46:26,069 --> 00:46:23,040 area of evidence that we have out of 1263 00:46:28,150 --> 00:46:26,079 these these different topic areas and my 1264 00:46:30,069 --> 00:46:28,160 realization was it was in this tech type 1265 00:46:32,950 --> 00:46:30,079 machine and if you aren't familiar with 1266 00:46:35,910 --> 00:46:32,960 tektites tektites are a kind of melt 1267 00:46:37,109 --> 00:46:35,920 glass now they uh there's there's a few 1268 00:46:37,750 --> 00:46:37,119 kinds of milks you have of course you 1269 00:46:39,910 --> 00:46:37,760 have 1270 00:46:42,710 --> 00:46:39,920 impact glasses which you find around you 1271 00:46:45,190 --> 00:46:42,720 know asteroid craters right which i 1272 00:46:47,589 --> 00:46:45,200 most maybe are familiar with we have of 1273 00:46:49,349 --> 00:46:47,599 course volcanic glasses 1274 00:46:50,630 --> 00:46:49,359 and then you have you know human-made 1275 00:46:52,309 --> 00:46:50,640 glasses i mean this kind of other kind 1276 00:46:54,870 --> 00:46:52,319 of like lightning glasses like full 1277 00:46:57,589 --> 00:46:54,880 garages but they're quite different um 1278 00:46:59,430 --> 00:46:57,599 tektites are a particularly strange type 1279 00:47:01,910 --> 00:46:59,440 of glass because although they are they 1280 00:47:04,870 --> 00:47:01,920 are generally held to be 1281 00:47:08,309 --> 00:47:04,880 a type of asteroid impact glass they are 1282 00:47:10,550 --> 00:47:08,319 far more alike to volcanic glasses and 1283 00:47:12,390 --> 00:47:10,560 artificial glasses and there's a number 1284 00:47:14,230 --> 00:47:12,400 of reasons i'll give a very quick 1285 00:47:17,589 --> 00:47:14,240 overview of why and this is why this 1286 00:47:19,910 --> 00:47:17,599 tech type topic remains a mystery and 1287 00:47:21,670 --> 00:47:19,920 controversial with ongoing discussion 1288 00:47:23,990 --> 00:47:21,680 around how tech types formed and that's 1289 00:47:26,150 --> 00:47:24,000 200 years this has been going on just to 1290 00:47:26,870 --> 00:47:26,160 be clear 200 years detective subject has 1291 00:47:28,950 --> 00:47:26,880 been 1292 00:47:30,950 --> 00:47:28,960 debated with different points of view on 1293 00:47:32,870 --> 00:47:30,960 the the story of how they formed and how 1294 00:47:34,549 --> 00:47:32,880 they are distributed now the 1295 00:47:37,030 --> 00:47:34,559 distribution is interesting because they 1296 00:47:39,829 --> 00:47:37,040 are found in strewn fields enormous um 1297 00:47:41,589 --> 00:47:39,839 just enormous fields of debris 1298 00:47:44,069 --> 00:47:41,599 stretching for you know hundreds or 1299 00:47:46,630 --> 00:47:44,079 thousands of kilometers in the case of 1300 00:47:48,309 --> 00:47:46,640 the australasian strewn field we are 1301 00:47:51,510 --> 00:47:48,319 talking about a debris field that is 1302 00:47:54,230 --> 00:47:51,520 around 12 000 kilometers long going from 1303 00:47:55,910 --> 00:47:54,240 china to antarctica and out of the edges 1304 00:47:58,470 --> 00:47:55,920 to kind of madagascar and out into the 1305 00:48:01,109 --> 00:47:58,480 ocean beyond papua right about another 1306 00:48:03,750 --> 00:48:01,119 10 000 kilometers across or something so 1307 00:48:05,589 --> 00:48:03,760 about 20 of the earth's surface 1308 00:48:07,109 --> 00:48:05,599 is covered in these australasian 1309 00:48:08,390 --> 00:48:07,119 textiles so that's a first of all it's 1310 00:48:10,870 --> 00:48:08,400 enormous so we're talking about an event 1311 00:48:14,309 --> 00:48:10,880 that is just you know massive in scale 1312 00:48:15,109 --> 00:48:14,319 and these these tektites have um 1313 00:48:16,390 --> 00:48:15,119 two 1314 00:48:18,309 --> 00:48:16,400 really important considerations first 1315 00:48:20,150 --> 00:48:18,319 thing is that they are very homogeneous 1316 00:48:23,030 --> 00:48:20,160 that is the the chemicals in them are 1317 00:48:25,190 --> 00:48:23,040 very well mixed throughout the entire 1318 00:48:26,710 --> 00:48:25,200 body of the material across all of that 1319 00:48:28,470 --> 00:48:26,720 distance the second means they're very 1320 00:48:30,150 --> 00:48:28,480 well fined and people are familiar with 1321 00:48:32,950 --> 00:48:30,160 glass making understand the fining 1322 00:48:34,790 --> 00:48:32,960 process of glass is so removing the 1323 00:48:36,390 --> 00:48:34,800 bubbles and to remove you know removing 1324 00:48:38,150 --> 00:48:36,400 the chemicals you don't want in there so 1325 00:48:39,750 --> 00:48:38,160 you heat it to a certain temperature 1326 00:48:42,390 --> 00:48:39,760 over a certain period of time certain 1327 00:48:44,390 --> 00:48:42,400 chemicals so you mix it you allow the 1328 00:48:47,270 --> 00:48:44,400 bubbling and you end up with you know 1329 00:48:49,190 --> 00:48:47,280 these high quality glasses right a 1330 00:48:51,670 --> 00:48:49,200 similar process happens with volcanic 1331 00:48:54,150 --> 00:48:51,680 glass because it's heated in a caldera 1332 00:48:57,190 --> 00:48:54,160 over a period of time so again 1333 00:48:59,990 --> 00:48:57,200 homogenous uh you know material how does 1334 00:49:01,430 --> 00:49:00,000 that differ from what we'd find from an 1335 00:49:07,270 --> 00:49:01,440 asteroid 1336 00:49:08,870 --> 00:49:07,280 foamy so in other words they are full of 1337 00:49:10,230 --> 00:49:08,880 bubbles and the reason why is because 1338 00:49:11,990 --> 00:49:10,240 when an asteroid impacts and this is 1339 00:49:13,349 --> 00:49:12,000 you'll find the same at nuclear blast 1340 00:49:15,510 --> 00:49:13,359 sites if anyone's familiar with nuclear 1341 00:49:17,270 --> 00:49:15,520 blast glasses they're very similar to 1342 00:49:19,589 --> 00:49:17,280 asteroid impact glasses for the same 1343 00:49:21,270 --> 00:49:19,599 reason very quick events you know high 1344 00:49:23,510 --> 00:49:21,280 energy high pressure events but 1345 00:49:25,750 --> 00:49:23,520 short-lived so you get a lot of material 1346 00:49:27,109 --> 00:49:25,760 melted but around the edges especially a 1347 00:49:28,549 --> 00:49:27,119 lot of bubbles in it because it heats 1348 00:49:31,349 --> 00:49:28,559 very quick then it cools very fast so 1349 00:49:32,549 --> 00:49:31,359 the bubbles are trapped right and so you 1350 00:49:33,829 --> 00:49:32,559 anyone wants to look up them they'll 1351 00:49:35,670 --> 00:49:33,839 find images they'll find they're very 1352 00:49:38,549 --> 00:49:35,680 bubbly the other thing is they contain 1353 00:49:39,510 --> 00:49:38,559 part melt so pieces of partially melted 1354 00:49:41,109 --> 00:49:39,520 stone 1355 00:49:43,030 --> 00:49:41,119 right makes sense at the edge of the 1356 00:49:45,990 --> 00:49:43,040 blast zone you get part melt your 1357 00:49:47,990 --> 00:49:46,000 inclusions of unmelted stone or sand you 1358 00:49:50,549 --> 00:49:48,000 also get inclusions of organic materials 1359 00:49:52,470 --> 00:49:50,559 are you soils right so that's a kind of 1360 00:49:56,230 --> 00:49:52,480 a typical also the glass is almost 1361 00:49:58,309 --> 00:49:56,240 identical chemically to the crater rock 1362 00:50:00,790 --> 00:49:58,319 because it's just the crater melted 1363 00:50:02,950 --> 00:50:00,800 right so it's almost interesting and 1364 00:50:05,270 --> 00:50:02,960 you'll find that blast around the crater 1365 00:50:07,990 --> 00:50:05,280 and usually to a maximum of 400 1366 00:50:10,230 --> 00:50:08,000 kilometers from the crater right and 1367 00:50:12,309 --> 00:50:10,240 that's because when anything explodes no 1368 00:50:14,549 --> 00:50:12,319 matter how fast that material leaves if 1369 00:50:16,710 --> 00:50:14,559 it's about hyper velocity debris called 1370 00:50:19,109 --> 00:50:16,720 distal ejector right so when this 1371 00:50:21,349 --> 00:50:19,119 material is thrown out of the crater no 1372 00:50:23,670 --> 00:50:21,359 matter how fast it's going 1373 00:50:25,829 --> 00:50:23,680 it falls by around 400 kilometers the 1374 00:50:27,510 --> 00:50:25,839 reason for that is because the air ahead 1375 00:50:29,910 --> 00:50:27,520 of it is being compressed so it's 1376 00:50:31,510 --> 00:50:29,920 dealing with friction gravity and 1377 00:50:33,109 --> 00:50:31,520 obviously the air that's compressing 1378 00:50:34,790 --> 00:50:33,119 ahead of it so if you imagine a bullet 1379 00:50:36,630 --> 00:50:34,800 going through water you know it's 1380 00:50:38,150 --> 00:50:36,640 stopped pretty quick this is a similar 1381 00:50:41,430 --> 00:50:38,160 kind of scenario no matter how fast it's 1382 00:50:43,829 --> 00:50:41,440 going it's meeting that opposition and 1383 00:50:45,750 --> 00:50:43,839 it will be slowed and it will drop to 1384 00:50:47,030 --> 00:50:45,760 not much further than 400 kilometers 1385 00:50:51,430 --> 00:50:47,040 some people have some scientists 1386 00:50:56,790 --> 00:50:51,440 estimate maybe a thousand so compared to 1387 00:51:01,430 --> 00:50:56,800 a huge giant small moon size spaceship 1388 00:51:04,069 --> 00:51:01,440 that is orbiting the earth and is hit by 1389 00:51:06,470 --> 00:51:04,079 uh some kind of high energy weapon that 1390 00:51:08,950 --> 00:51:06,480 we can't begin to understand 1391 00:51:10,390 --> 00:51:08,960 how does what you find 1392 00:51:13,190 --> 00:51:10,400 fit that 1393 00:51:13,910 --> 00:51:13,200 completely ridiculous to a lot of people 1394 00:51:16,069 --> 00:51:13,920 but 1395 00:51:18,069 --> 00:51:16,079 potential scenario 1396 00:51:20,390 --> 00:51:18,079 how does it fit well there's 1397 00:51:21,710 --> 00:51:20,400 two things like two things i have to say 1398 00:51:24,870 --> 00:51:21,720 you can look at this the most 1399 00:51:26,710 --> 00:51:24,880 conservative conclusion of my work i 1400 00:51:29,829 --> 00:51:26,720 would suggest is that you're dealing 1401 00:51:32,630 --> 00:51:29,839 with an interstellar object an unknown 1402 00:51:33,829 --> 00:51:32,640 type of interstellar object okay so some 1403 00:51:35,910 --> 00:51:33,839 people may be 1404 00:51:38,470 --> 00:51:35,920 only willing to go as far as that but 1405 00:51:41,829 --> 00:51:38,480 the indications are that this has to be 1406 00:51:44,549 --> 00:51:41,839 a glassy object right a highly silica 1407 00:51:46,710 --> 00:51:44,559 glassy object in other words it appears 1408 00:51:48,390 --> 00:51:46,720 it was already made of glass fined 1409 00:51:50,470 --> 00:51:48,400 homogenous glass 1410 00:51:52,470 --> 00:51:50,480 before it exploded 1411 00:51:54,710 --> 00:51:52,480 because as you just described if it's 1412 00:51:57,030 --> 00:51:54,720 made of a bunch of other stuff then 1413 00:51:59,270 --> 00:51:57,040 we're going to find all that other stuff 1414 00:52:01,030 --> 00:51:59,280 in the tektites right well so yeah and 1415 00:52:03,190 --> 00:52:01,040 if it's homogeneous if the tektites are 1416 00:52:05,270 --> 00:52:03,200 homogeneous and well-fined and they 1417 00:52:07,030 --> 00:52:05,280 didn't have time for that to occur 1418 00:52:09,510 --> 00:52:07,040 because they're not in a caldera they're 1419 00:52:12,150 --> 00:52:09,520 not in a you know in an industrial plant 1420 00:52:15,589 --> 00:52:12,160 being heated for hours right so this 1421 00:52:17,990 --> 00:52:15,599 infers that there was not time for the 1422 00:52:20,710 --> 00:52:18,000 the body to be melted into a fine 1423 00:52:23,349 --> 00:52:20,720 homogenous glass so we should be seeing 1424 00:52:26,069 --> 00:52:23,359 frothy foamy poorly mixed materials but 1425 00:52:29,109 --> 00:52:26,079 we're not so the inference is that the 1426 00:52:32,710 --> 00:52:29,119 parent body whatever it was was already 1427 00:52:35,109 --> 00:52:32,720 made of glass like homogenous find glass 1428 00:52:37,510 --> 00:52:35,119 now that's a problem because what kind 1429 00:52:41,270 --> 00:52:37,520 of object is flying around out there 1430 00:52:43,829 --> 00:52:41,280 it's a big silica glass body there's no 1431 00:52:46,470 --> 00:52:43,839 comets or asteroids or anything like 1432 00:52:48,549 --> 00:52:46,480 that known in our solar system so you 1433 00:52:50,950 --> 00:52:48,559 have to go to either an exotic 1434 00:52:52,710 --> 00:52:50,960 interstellar object that's natural but 1435 00:52:54,710 --> 00:52:52,720 again you have to explain how 1436 00:52:55,589 --> 00:52:54,720 that's formed right 1437 00:53:00,630 --> 00:52:55,599 or 1438 00:53:03,589 --> 00:53:00,640 somebody has made this this is this is 1439 00:53:06,069 --> 00:53:03,599 find homogeneous materials somebody has 1440 00:53:08,069 --> 00:53:06,079 fined it somebody has mixed it somebody 1441 00:53:09,829 --> 00:53:08,079 has made it and the problems are with 1442 00:53:11,589 --> 00:53:09,839 the interstellar object hypothesis again 1443 00:53:12,950 --> 00:53:11,599 this is there was a couple guys back in 1444 00:53:15,589 --> 00:53:12,960 the days at nasa kind of asked the 1445 00:53:17,910 --> 00:53:15,599 question could this parent body be at 1446 00:53:20,069 --> 00:53:17,920 least an interplanetary object 1447 00:53:22,470 --> 00:53:20,079 at the time that the the the two 1448 00:53:23,589 --> 00:53:22,480 positions were it was luna like lunar 1449 00:53:25,829 --> 00:53:23,599 volcanic 1450 00:53:27,670 --> 00:53:25,839 glass they've been blown off of the moon 1451 00:53:29,270 --> 00:53:27,680 and again for this very reason that they 1452 00:53:31,510 --> 00:53:29,280 they understood this appeared to be 1453 00:53:33,430 --> 00:53:31,520 already glass and to have come from 1454 00:53:35,829 --> 00:53:33,440 space so a lot of the nasa guys were 1455 00:53:37,670 --> 00:53:35,839 arguing this had to be lunar material 1456 00:53:39,750 --> 00:53:37,680 that theory collapsed when we retrieved 1457 00:53:42,549 --> 00:53:39,760 lunar materials and realized it did not 1458 00:53:43,990 --> 00:53:42,559 mesh with lunar rock right but their 1459 00:53:45,990 --> 00:53:44,000 argument was very sound and one of the 1460 00:53:47,750 --> 00:53:46,000 guys actually said well look what about 1461 00:53:49,190 --> 00:53:47,760 if it came from interplanetary space or 1462 00:53:50,390 --> 00:53:49,200 somewhere further out they said well 1463 00:53:52,150 --> 00:53:50,400 that's a problem no one can tell that 1464 00:53:53,990 --> 00:53:52,160 seriously because 1465 00:53:55,910 --> 00:53:54,000 what's the chances of first like an 1466 00:53:59,109 --> 00:53:55,920 object like that but also that it ends 1467 00:54:00,309 --> 00:53:59,119 up in a geocentric orbit like so see 1468 00:54:01,990 --> 00:54:00,319 then you start getting to this really 1469 00:54:03,430 --> 00:54:02,000 straightforward yeah what's the chances 1470 00:54:05,109 --> 00:54:03,440 that we're going to capture there's an 1471 00:54:06,870 --> 00:54:05,119 anomalous object and it's going to come 1472 00:54:09,109 --> 00:54:06,880 in at just the right speed and angle to 1473 00:54:10,950 --> 00:54:09,119 be caught in a geocentric orbit how do 1474 00:54:13,109 --> 00:54:10,960 you know it was orbiting 1475 00:54:15,589 --> 00:54:13,119 so two questions one how do you know it 1476 00:54:17,030 --> 00:54:15,599 was orbiting more science there that you 1477 00:54:18,470 --> 00:54:17,040 know but the other thing that you 1478 00:54:21,270 --> 00:54:18,480 alluded to i want to make sure we 1479 00:54:23,829 --> 00:54:21,280 highlight it you say these nasa guys 1480 00:54:26,069 --> 00:54:23,839 were debating it again this speaks to 1481 00:54:27,349 --> 00:54:26,079 what you're saying before 200 year old 1482 00:54:28,549 --> 00:54:27,359 mystery 1483 00:54:31,430 --> 00:54:28,559 utai 1484 00:54:34,069 --> 00:54:31,440 reference nassau papers where these 1485 00:54:36,549 --> 00:54:34,079 scientists are speculating about the 1486 00:54:39,750 --> 00:54:36,559 very thing that you're studying so this 1487 00:54:42,390 --> 00:54:39,760 is not this is like that part of it is 1488 00:54:44,789 --> 00:54:42,400 mainstream the mystery is mainstream the 1489 00:54:47,510 --> 00:54:44,799 data that you're using is mainstream 1490 00:54:49,349 --> 00:54:47,520 verifiable so then 1491 00:54:52,390 --> 00:54:49,359 i just want people to understand that 1492 00:54:53,190 --> 00:54:52,400 orbit how do we know it's orbiting bruce 1493 00:54:55,030 --> 00:54:53,200 right 1494 00:54:57,430 --> 00:54:55,040 we know it's orbiting because there's a 1495 00:54:59,510 --> 00:54:57,440 reason if you imagine uh so you imagine 1496 00:55:00,789 --> 00:54:59,520 like say a comet something comes in from 1497 00:55:03,030 --> 00:55:00,799 space you say let's say we thought that 1498 00:55:04,950 --> 00:55:03,040 this was some sort of glassy comet came 1499 00:55:07,670 --> 00:55:04,960 in from space now 1500 00:55:10,470 --> 00:55:07,680 if it comes directly in and breaks up in 1501 00:55:13,030 --> 00:55:10,480 our atmosphere you end up with a very 1502 00:55:14,230 --> 00:55:13,040 small strewn field underneath because it 1503 00:55:15,750 --> 00:55:14,240 will just break up you'll just rain down 1504 00:55:18,150 --> 00:55:15,760 directly beneath where it's coming in or 1505 00:55:19,349 --> 00:55:18,160 an impact you know as we've touched on 1506 00:55:21,349 --> 00:55:19,359 there's a problem with the impact theory 1507 00:55:23,190 --> 00:55:21,359 but if we say that it broke up coming 1508 00:55:24,630 --> 00:55:23,200 into the atmosphere you would end up 1509 00:55:27,990 --> 00:55:24,640 with i think they estimated something 1510 00:55:29,670 --> 00:55:28,000 like um about 10 kilometer wide field or 1511 00:55:32,069 --> 00:55:29,680 something like that very small but what 1512 00:55:33,829 --> 00:55:32,079 we've got is a 10 000 kilometer wide 1513 00:55:35,910 --> 00:55:33,839 field so said the only way that this 1514 00:55:39,510 --> 00:55:35,920 works out is if we have a body that has 1515 00:55:41,910 --> 00:55:39,520 been captured and is in orbit and then 1516 00:55:43,270 --> 00:55:41,920 it breaks apart fragments and a high 1517 00:55:43,990 --> 00:55:43,280 temperature because it has to you know 1518 00:55:46,069 --> 00:55:44,000 has 1519 00:55:47,589 --> 00:55:46,079 basically sort of blown up it's melted 1520 00:55:49,030 --> 00:55:47,599 to liquid we know it was melted to 1521 00:55:51,829 --> 00:55:49,040 liquid because 1522 00:55:53,589 --> 00:55:51,839 the the tectites begin before they enter 1523 00:55:55,430 --> 00:55:53,599 atmosphere these tactics the separate 1524 00:55:57,349 --> 00:55:55,440 pieces are spherical 1525 00:55:59,589 --> 00:55:57,359 right and have frozen very quickly so 1526 00:56:00,870 --> 00:55:59,599 fast that there's no crystallization has 1527 00:56:03,109 --> 00:56:00,880 occurred and that would occur if there 1528 00:56:04,230 --> 00:56:03,119 was an extended cooling so we know the 1529 00:56:06,630 --> 00:56:04,240 only place where that's really going to 1530 00:56:08,950 --> 00:56:06,640 happen is in a vacuum right so if you 1531 00:56:11,589 --> 00:56:08,960 get this material is melted to 1532 00:56:14,309 --> 00:56:11,599 superheated to glass at 2700 kelvin 1533 00:56:15,910 --> 00:56:14,319 roughly and then it is it becomes glass 1534 00:56:18,230 --> 00:56:15,920 droplets they form spheres because 1535 00:56:19,589 --> 00:56:18,240 they're in space so that's the nasa guys 1536 00:56:21,030 --> 00:56:19,599 they're looking at saying well that has 1537 00:56:22,710 --> 00:56:21,040 to be that they can see that the tech 1538 00:56:25,109 --> 00:56:22,720 type buttons which are a particular type 1539 00:56:27,750 --> 00:56:25,119 of these tactiles then show secondary 1540 00:56:29,030 --> 00:56:27,760 melting with aerodynamic shaping so he 1541 00:56:31,510 --> 00:56:29,040 said in other words these have skipped 1542 00:56:33,670 --> 00:56:31,520 along the edge of the atmosphere very 1543 00:56:37,589 --> 00:56:33,680 angles almost horizontal to the plane of 1544 00:56:39,589 --> 00:56:37,599 the planet so very very um gentle angles 1545 00:56:41,910 --> 00:56:39,599 skipping along and then slowly entering 1546 00:56:44,309 --> 00:56:41,920 which allows time for heating of the 1547 00:56:46,470 --> 00:56:44,319 front of the sphere there's a lot of 1548 00:56:48,309 --> 00:56:46,480 sphere evaporates but the front edge 1549 00:56:50,150 --> 00:56:48,319 means to run backwards and you get these 1550 00:56:52,230 --> 00:56:50,160 aerodynamic shapes they look like the 1551 00:56:54,230 --> 00:56:52,240 front of bullets almost because you know 1552 00:56:56,710 --> 00:56:54,240 aerodynamic shapes right so 1553 00:56:59,190 --> 00:56:56,720 they could understand that these had to 1554 00:57:00,390 --> 00:56:59,200 be on these gentle angles the only way 1555 00:57:02,710 --> 00:57:00,400 that you'd end up with that is if the 1556 00:57:04,549 --> 00:57:02,720 parent body is in orbit and what you 1557 00:57:06,630 --> 00:57:04,559 have really is a debris field that is 1558 00:57:08,789 --> 00:57:06,640 continuing on in the orbital parts of 1559 00:57:11,270 --> 00:57:08,799 the parent body but they're now entering 1560 00:57:13,430 --> 00:57:11,280 decaying orbital paths because it's 1561 00:57:15,670 --> 00:57:13,440 fragmented it's blown apart and some of 1562 00:57:17,670 --> 00:57:15,680 them are now gently skipping along the 1563 00:57:19,030 --> 00:57:17,680 edge of atmosphere and entering so if 1564 00:57:20,710 --> 00:57:19,040 you come in at any other angles for 1565 00:57:23,589 --> 00:57:20,720 example if you think of a normal 1566 00:57:26,789 --> 00:57:23,599 meteorite when it comes in comes super 1567 00:57:28,150 --> 00:57:26,799 fast from space first of all and what 1568 00:57:30,150 --> 00:57:28,160 you get is 1569 00:57:32,230 --> 00:57:30,160 absolute extreme heating of the outer 1570 00:57:33,589 --> 00:57:32,240 surface it evaporates and that's we get 1571 00:57:35,030 --> 00:57:33,599 these and they just come down almost the 1572 00:57:37,030 --> 00:57:35,040 same shape as they were those chunks you 1573 00:57:39,510 --> 00:57:37,040 know misshapen chunks there's no 1574 00:57:41,270 --> 00:57:39,520 aerodynamic shaping on meteorites they 1575 00:57:43,349 --> 00:57:41,280 come in so fast that all that happens is 1576 00:57:45,430 --> 00:57:43,359 the outer layer evaporates and that's 1577 00:57:47,030 --> 00:57:45,440 why these button tectites are unique you 1578 00:57:49,030 --> 00:57:47,040 don't find them anywhere else and that's 1579 00:57:51,589 --> 00:57:49,040 an important point in the 4.6 billion 1580 00:57:54,069 --> 00:57:51,599 years of history these are the only 1581 00:57:56,789 --> 00:57:54,079 known examples right so if these were 1582 00:57:59,109 --> 00:57:56,799 just from any old meteorites you would 1583 00:58:00,950 --> 00:57:59,119 see these all over the planet right at 1584 00:58:02,870 --> 00:58:00,960 various sites you don't you find them 1585 00:58:05,109 --> 00:58:02,880 once and so the nasa guys ran their 1586 00:58:07,349 --> 00:58:05,119 experiments at the nasa ames um research 1587 00:58:09,829 --> 00:58:07,359 lab they did wind tunnel research using 1588 00:58:12,069 --> 00:58:09,839 artificial glass spheres to see how you 1589 00:58:14,630 --> 00:58:12,079 could shape these and they found that 1590 00:58:17,349 --> 00:58:14,640 they had to come in around about 1591 00:58:20,309 --> 00:58:17,359 about 10 to 14 1592 00:58:22,390 --> 00:58:20,319 kilometers per second and angles also 90 1593 00:58:24,150 --> 00:58:22,400 degree angles roughly and that you would 1594 00:58:26,069 --> 00:58:24,160 end up with this kind of shaping so all 1595 00:58:28,309 --> 00:58:26,079 that all that research was done by the 1596 00:58:31,349 --> 00:58:28,319 nasa guys right they worked out this had 1597 00:58:32,870 --> 00:58:31,359 to be coming in from something in orbit 1598 00:58:35,270 --> 00:58:32,880 when it broke up 1599 00:58:36,630 --> 00:58:35,280 none of the other maps works you know i 1600 00:58:38,150 --> 00:58:36,640 don't have to do the mouse thankfully 1601 00:58:39,510 --> 00:58:38,160 they've done all that 1602 00:58:41,030 --> 00:58:39,520 and they found that that is the only 1603 00:58:43,190 --> 00:58:41,040 scenario where you end up with these 1604 00:58:45,589 --> 00:58:43,200 tech type buttons 1605 00:58:48,950 --> 00:58:45,599 what do we know and do we know anything 1606 00:58:51,190 --> 00:58:48,960 new about the timing and again this is 1607 00:58:52,950 --> 00:58:51,200 like you've already mentioned this point 1608 00:58:54,950 --> 00:58:52,960 it's very basic 1609 00:58:56,630 --> 00:58:54,960 but when i heard this interview you did 1610 00:58:59,510 --> 00:58:56,640 where the guy was totally hung up on 1611 00:59:01,109 --> 00:58:59,520 this you're looking to falsify the 1612 00:59:03,910 --> 00:59:01,119 narrative that's what you're really 1613 00:59:05,589 --> 00:59:03,920 doing and people mistakenly look that 1614 00:59:08,710 --> 00:59:05,599 you're looking to 1615 00:59:11,030 --> 00:59:08,720 cherry pick and retrofit into it and 1616 00:59:13,670 --> 00:59:11,040 you're doing the opposite you are trying 1617 00:59:15,589 --> 00:59:13,680 to debunk your own theory and then what 1618 00:59:17,109 --> 00:59:15,599 comes out in terms of the date of the 1619 00:59:18,549 --> 00:59:17,119 tektites and what's come out more 1620 00:59:20,870 --> 00:59:18,559 recently 1621 00:59:23,270 --> 00:59:20,880 yeah i mean this first says well in in 1622 00:59:25,030 --> 00:59:23,280 the original account you know 1623 00:59:27,349 --> 00:59:25,040 valerie barrow actually she suggests 1624 00:59:29,750 --> 00:59:27,359 that she feels that the debris from this 1625 00:59:31,670 --> 00:59:29,760 craft is molded like tech types so it's 1626 00:59:32,789 --> 00:59:31,680 still tectites but you know if i was 1627 00:59:35,030 --> 00:59:32,799 going to be cherry-picking and just 1628 00:59:37,510 --> 00:59:35,040 trying to establish this narrative i 1629 00:59:39,829 --> 00:59:37,520 would be trying to argue that moldavites 1630 00:59:42,470 --> 00:59:39,839 fit the story right and they're trying 1631 00:59:44,150 --> 00:59:42,480 to make the science fit that somehow 1632 00:59:46,309 --> 00:59:44,160 these are the right age you know the 1633 00:59:47,910 --> 00:59:46,319 right characteristics but i didn't find 1634 00:59:50,230 --> 00:59:47,920 that i found that they did not fit 1635 00:59:52,470 --> 00:59:50,240 because the dating on them is millions 1636 00:59:55,030 --> 00:59:52,480 of years old 1637 00:59:56,870 --> 00:59:55,040 but with the the australasian tektite 1638 00:59:58,549 --> 00:59:56,880 the most recent dating is done by the 1639 01:00:01,430 --> 00:59:58,559 argonne dating method so you know 1640 01:00:02,950 --> 01:00:01,440 geological dating methods uh it they 1641 01:00:05,910 --> 01:00:02,960 come to what is considered now the most 1642 01:00:08,549 --> 01:00:05,920 accurate dating of 788 1643 01:00:11,030 --> 01:00:08,559 000 years ago that this glass formed you 1644 01:00:12,470 --> 01:00:11,040 know this melt occurred to this glass so 1645 01:00:14,470 --> 01:00:12,480 don't tell you how the old the parent 1646 01:00:16,470 --> 01:00:14,480 object is but it tells you when that 1647 01:00:18,470 --> 01:00:16,480 melting occurred to form these 1648 01:00:21,030 --> 01:00:18,480 individual techniques so that's at the 1649 01:00:22,870 --> 01:00:21,040 as it stands is the most accurate dating 1650 01:00:24,870 --> 01:00:22,880 again not done by me you know this is 1651 01:00:27,030 --> 01:00:24,880 obviously done by people with labs that 1652 01:00:29,030 --> 01:00:27,040 can do argon dating so as you know as 1653 01:00:30,230 --> 01:00:29,040 ever i rely on that so that's where 1654 01:00:31,430 --> 01:00:30,240 we're at with the dating so that's quite 1655 01:00:33,430 --> 01:00:31,440 solid 1656 01:00:35,109 --> 01:00:33,440 you know unless you know 1657 01:00:36,710 --> 01:00:35,119 they somehow are contested but even if 1658 01:00:38,309 --> 01:00:36,720 you look at the older datings they're 1659 01:00:39,430 --> 01:00:38,319 all somewhere in that range you know 1660 01:00:42,150 --> 01:00:39,440 they're certainly in the last few years 1661 01:00:43,829 --> 01:00:42,160 the datings have been done around 780 1662 01:00:46,950 --> 01:00:43,839 000 years of source when we were talking 1663 01:00:49,990 --> 01:00:46,960 before i was saying 780 000 but the most 1664 01:00:52,950 --> 01:00:50,000 accurate dating now is 788 000. 1665 01:00:55,589 --> 01:00:52,960 excellent so anything else on the 1666 01:00:57,430 --> 01:00:55,599 tektites uh before we move to the 1667 01:00:59,750 --> 01:00:57,440 genetic stuff which is 1668 01:01:00,950 --> 01:00:59,760 super fascinating 1669 01:01:04,309 --> 01:01:00,960 yeah i mean the first i say is that you 1670 01:01:05,589 --> 01:01:04,319 know in in many ways the tech type area 1671 01:01:08,069 --> 01:01:05,599 of this 1672 01:01:09,750 --> 01:01:08,079 can be quite easily just disconnected 1673 01:01:11,750 --> 01:01:09,760 from the whole story for people that 1674 01:01:14,309 --> 01:01:11,760 don't like you know stories of people's 1675 01:01:16,309 --> 01:01:14,319 anecdotal accounts of having told 1676 01:01:18,390 --> 01:01:16,319 something had happened you know i i feel 1677 01:01:19,990 --> 01:01:18,400 the tech type part is a stand-alone 1678 01:01:22,470 --> 01:01:20,000 topic because at this point i don't 1679 01:01:24,549 --> 01:01:22,480 really care as such whether or not 1680 01:01:27,190 --> 01:01:24,559 people believe in whether or not an 1681 01:01:28,870 --> 01:01:27,200 elder uh you know and another lady had 1682 01:01:30,309 --> 01:01:28,880 an encounter with an object they can 1683 01:01:31,349 --> 01:01:30,319 sign themselves but what i can say to 1684 01:01:34,630 --> 01:01:31,359 them is 1685 01:01:36,630 --> 01:01:34,640 tektites are a existing scientific 1686 01:01:39,030 --> 01:01:36,640 mystery that is survived that's a 1687 01:01:42,069 --> 01:01:39,040 mystery for 200 years with the greatest 1688 01:01:44,710 --> 01:01:42,079 minds thrown in it nasa's facilities are 1689 01:01:47,030 --> 01:01:44,720 above and used to explore them it's a 1690 01:01:48,309 --> 01:01:47,040 genuine persisting mystery and that the 1691 01:01:51,430 --> 01:01:48,319 evidence 1692 01:01:54,230 --> 01:01:51,440 points to this being from an anomalous 1693 01:01:55,750 --> 01:01:54,240 type of object exploding in orbit now i 1694 01:01:59,270 --> 01:01:55,760 don't really care whether people want to 1695 01:02:01,190 --> 01:01:59,280 believe in talking probes or you know or 1696 01:02:02,710 --> 01:02:01,200 elders having perhaps you know if that 1697 01:02:06,309 --> 01:02:02,720 is a problem for someone i would say 1698 01:02:09,510 --> 01:02:06,319 well just look at this tech type plan 1699 01:02:11,990 --> 01:02:09,520 and go from there because i'm so 1700 01:02:13,750 --> 01:02:12,000 confident in the kind of the the level 1701 01:02:15,750 --> 01:02:13,760 of evidence to at least 1702 01:02:18,069 --> 01:02:15,760 and again most conservative conclusion 1703 01:02:19,990 --> 01:02:18,079 at least support the 1704 01:02:22,789 --> 01:02:20,000 the argument that it is an interstellar 1705 01:02:24,870 --> 01:02:22,799 object with an anomalous composition 1706 01:02:26,150 --> 01:02:24,880 breaking up in orbit that you know i'm 1707 01:02:29,270 --> 01:02:26,160 quite for somebody if they stop then 1708 01:02:30,789 --> 01:02:29,280 just say well that in itself is massive 1709 01:02:32,710 --> 01:02:30,799 even if they go no further than that 1710 01:02:34,950 --> 01:02:32,720 because that's an entire new class of 1711 01:02:37,190 --> 01:02:34,960 objects and the earliest known example 1712 01:02:39,670 --> 01:02:37,200 of an interstellar you know object 1713 01:02:41,510 --> 01:02:39,680 arriving here and it's doing strange 1714 01:02:43,029 --> 01:02:41,520 things so that's what i'd suggest to 1715 01:02:45,029 --> 01:02:43,039 anyone who's who doesn't want to go 1716 01:02:46,950 --> 01:02:45,039 there with any of the other elements 1717 01:02:49,430 --> 01:02:46,960 just ponder that for a moment and by all 1718 01:02:51,109 --> 01:02:49,440 means check check everything i'm saying 1719 01:02:52,069 --> 01:02:51,119 look at the papers you know if you have 1720 01:02:54,390 --> 01:02:52,079 a question 1721 01:02:56,150 --> 01:02:54,400 ask me 1722 01:02:58,069 --> 01:02:56,160 how about that you know 1723 01:03:00,390 --> 01:02:58,079 the most some of the most important 1724 01:03:01,910 --> 01:03:00,400 research we could possibly do and you 1725 01:03:04,549 --> 01:03:01,920 can ask them a question that's just 1726 01:03:05,829 --> 01:03:04,559 fantastic talk about human accelerated 1727 01:03:06,789 --> 01:03:05,839 regions 1728 01:03:08,870 --> 01:03:06,799 sure 1729 01:03:10,789 --> 01:03:08,880 so i mean i i personally think that you 1730 01:03:13,430 --> 01:03:10,799 know the genomic seti aspect in the 1731 01:03:14,630 --> 01:03:13,440 story is absolutely fascinating and 1732 01:03:17,190 --> 01:03:14,640 amazing something we should definitely 1733 01:03:18,710 --> 01:03:17,200 be going into and a few years ago and 1734 01:03:20,470 --> 01:03:18,720 just before i appreciate it a little bit 1735 01:03:22,150 --> 01:03:20,480 a few years a couple years ago now i'm 1736 01:03:24,950 --> 01:03:22,160 not sure exactly when i managed to get a 1737 01:03:27,270 --> 01:03:24,960 question put to sep shostak i think most 1738 01:03:28,710 --> 01:03:27,280 people if you're into these topics have 1739 01:03:31,510 --> 01:03:28,720 probably heard of steph shostak you know 1740 01:03:34,390 --> 01:03:31,520 he's seti um he's josetti foundation's 1741 01:03:36,309 --> 01:03:34,400 most um senior astronomer 1742 01:03:38,150 --> 01:03:36,319 and so you know he's often the voice of 1743 01:03:39,349 --> 01:03:38,160 seti you know so 1744 01:03:41,670 --> 01:03:39,359 i managed to get a question put to him 1745 01:03:43,589 --> 01:03:41,680 by mick west the famous kind of ufo de 1746 01:03:45,349 --> 01:03:43,599 bunker on his radio show and i thought 1747 01:03:48,230 --> 01:03:45,359 that was kind of amazing 1748 01:03:50,710 --> 01:03:48,240 it's been part of my story at all um and 1749 01:03:53,270 --> 01:03:50,720 so mick asked him what he thought of 1750 01:03:55,430 --> 01:03:53,280 basically um genomic seti which is 1751 01:03:58,870 --> 01:03:55,440 investigating genomics to see if there 1752 01:04:00,789 --> 01:03:58,880 is any evidence of genetic manipulation 1753 01:04:02,390 --> 01:04:00,799 you know any organisms on this planet 1754 01:04:04,390 --> 01:04:02,400 and he kind of confirms what i already 1755 01:04:06,150 --> 01:04:04,400 knew he says yes you know 1756 01:04:08,470 --> 01:04:06,160 professor paul davies 1757 01:04:10,630 --> 01:04:08,480 esteemed kind of uh astrophysicist 1758 01:04:12,309 --> 01:04:10,640 mathematician has said for years yes we 1759 01:04:13,430 --> 01:04:12,319 could do this and maybe there's you know 1760 01:04:15,109 --> 01:04:13,440 i'm paraphrasing but you know saying 1761 01:04:17,829 --> 01:04:15,119 that yes this is worthwhile doing and 1762 01:04:19,829 --> 01:04:17,839 that is it's easy it's cheap it could 1763 01:04:22,069 --> 01:04:19,839 probably be done by a graduate student 1764 01:04:23,750 --> 01:04:22,079 in a couple of weeks and then the bit 1765 01:04:25,990 --> 01:04:23,760 that everyone should be thinking well 1766 01:04:27,750 --> 01:04:26,000 why haven't you done it i mean these 1767 01:04:29,750 --> 01:04:27,760 people have had millions of dollars 1768 01:04:31,990 --> 01:04:29,760 right spent on radio astronomy and 1769 01:04:33,910 --> 01:04:32,000 they've got nowhere with it 1770 01:04:35,510 --> 01:04:33,920 nothing has come out of that in terms of 1771 01:04:37,829 --> 01:04:35,520 finding evidence of aliens and he's 1772 01:04:39,829 --> 01:04:37,839 seeing that and he has the full faith to 1773 01:04:42,230 --> 01:04:39,839 say they could have got some grad 1774 01:04:44,870 --> 01:04:42,240 student to do this project over a couple 1775 01:04:47,349 --> 01:04:44,880 of weeks with almost let's be honest no 1776 01:04:49,910 --> 01:04:47,359 costs because how many people how many 1777 01:04:52,950 --> 01:04:49,920 grand salads that if if you think of 1778 01:04:54,789 --> 01:04:52,960 esteemed voices like paul davies and the 1779 01:04:56,950 --> 01:04:54,799 seth shostak reached out to the 1780 01:04:58,789 --> 01:04:56,960 community of science and said we just 1781 01:05:00,870 --> 01:04:58,799 need a couple of grad students to go 1782 01:05:03,270 --> 01:05:00,880 over the literature and see if there's 1783 01:05:05,670 --> 01:05:03,280 any anomalies in genetics that might 1784 01:05:08,230 --> 01:05:05,680 indicate possible tampering in the past 1785 01:05:10,470 --> 01:05:08,240 they would have had thousands of people 1786 01:05:12,150 --> 01:05:10,480 offering to do that this relates back to 1787 01:05:13,589 --> 01:05:12,160 the point we were talking about earlier 1788 01:05:16,309 --> 01:05:13,599 and it probably seemed incredibly 1789 01:05:19,109 --> 01:05:16,319 tangential to people but you've just 1790 01:05:21,430 --> 01:05:19,119 made it relevant which is that once you 1791 01:05:24,230 --> 01:05:21,440 probe deeper like you have 1792 01:05:26,630 --> 01:05:24,240 then everything looks different 1793 01:05:29,750 --> 01:05:26,640 and in particular what all that looks 1794 01:05:32,630 --> 01:05:29,760 like is as a social engineering mind 1795 01:05:35,750 --> 01:05:32,640 control misinformation disinformation 1796 01:05:37,510 --> 01:05:35,760 distraction campaign it's not real for 1797 01:05:39,990 --> 01:05:37,520 all the reasons that you just said is 1798 01:05:42,069 --> 01:05:40,000 because it's very doable science it 1799 01:05:45,270 --> 01:05:42,079 could be done so the fact that it isn't 1800 01:05:48,309 --> 01:05:45,280 done can only mean one thing that it's 1801 01:05:49,430 --> 01:05:48,319 there's a purpose behind it not being 1802 01:05:50,549 --> 01:05:49,440 done 1803 01:05:53,270 --> 01:05:50,559 right 1804 01:05:55,270 --> 01:05:53,280 he makes you look that way at it because 1805 01:05:57,430 --> 01:05:55,280 it's so you know to anyone listening 1806 01:05:59,589 --> 01:05:57,440 inside it's so glaring for someone like 1807 01:06:01,349 --> 01:05:59,599 that to say that and then it took not 1808 01:06:03,349 --> 01:06:01,359 been done saying yeah it's reasonable 1809 01:06:04,470 --> 01:06:03,359 yes we've talked about it but nobody's 1810 01:06:06,390 --> 01:06:04,480 done it i mean 1811 01:06:07,910 --> 01:06:06,400 that should make everyone question what 1812 01:06:09,430 --> 01:06:07,920 the hell is going on in this search for 1813 01:06:10,870 --> 01:06:09,440 extraterrestrial intelligence then you 1814 01:06:13,109 --> 01:06:10,880 know if there's simple projects being 1815 01:06:14,950 --> 01:06:13,119 ignored let me make sure we frame this 1816 01:06:17,349 --> 01:06:14,960 up correctly we're talking about kind of 1817 01:06:19,990 --> 01:06:17,359 this third element this third 1818 01:06:22,390 --> 01:06:20,000 leg of evidence that could support the 1819 01:06:25,029 --> 01:06:22,400 chiringa kind of thing so 1820 01:06:26,870 --> 01:06:25,039 one of the things is that there's this 1821 01:06:28,549 --> 01:06:26,880 big bombardment we really didn't talk 1822 01:06:30,630 --> 01:06:28,559 about number two you mentioned it in 1823 01:06:32,950 --> 01:06:30,640 passing that you couldn't have known 1824 01:06:35,270 --> 01:06:32,960 about the the bombardment of the 1825 01:06:37,190 --> 01:06:35,280 asteroids in the war which we'll talk 1826 01:06:38,789 --> 01:06:37,200 about maybe last because i think that's 1827 01:06:40,309 --> 01:06:38,799 super important too 1828 01:06:43,109 --> 01:06:40,319 in terms of culture 1829 01:06:44,309 --> 01:06:43,119 in terms of goody tea batty tea save the 1830 01:06:46,630 --> 01:06:44,319 planet 1831 01:06:49,109 --> 01:06:46,640 and now what does this story tell us 1832 01:06:50,950 --> 01:06:49,119 no that's that that quickly goes away 1833 01:06:53,589 --> 01:06:50,960 when we have 1834 01:06:55,910 --> 01:06:53,599 petty differences between fiefdoms which 1835 01:06:57,750 --> 01:06:55,920 doesn't that again resonate with talk 1836 01:06:59,349 --> 01:06:57,760 about rhyming with history how many 1837 01:07:01,430 --> 01:06:59,359 times have we seen that it's like you 1838 01:07:04,630 --> 01:07:01,440 might destroy the planet i don't give a 1839 01:07:07,910 --> 01:07:04,640 i want him out of there i want my i 1840 01:07:11,670 --> 01:07:07,920 want me to dominate right and now that's 1841 01:07:13,430 --> 01:07:11,680 ringing true 780 000 years ago so i'm 1842 01:07:15,990 --> 01:07:13,440 gonna put that aside for a minute 1843 01:07:17,990 --> 01:07:16,000 because we opened up the genetics thing 1844 01:07:21,510 --> 01:07:18,000 what is the information from the 1845 01:07:24,230 --> 01:07:21,520 charinga that were the basic story the 1846 01:07:25,190 --> 01:07:24,240 narrative that we're going to try and 1847 01:07:27,750 --> 01:07:25,200 find 1848 01:07:29,190 --> 01:07:27,760 if there's any basis for in this in this 1849 01:07:31,870 --> 01:07:29,200 very narrow time window now because 1850 01:07:35,510 --> 01:07:31,880 we're at 788 000 years it has to be in 1851 01:07:38,390 --> 01:07:35,520 788 000 years what is the it that has to 1852 01:07:41,589 --> 01:07:38,400 be in 788 000 years right so what they 1853 01:07:43,270 --> 01:07:41,599 describe is that there are some crew on 1854 01:07:44,630 --> 01:07:43,280 this ai craft 1855 01:07:46,309 --> 01:07:44,640 that's what they're saying now i can't 1856 01:07:48,069 --> 01:07:46,319 suspect it because you won't find that i 1857 01:07:49,589 --> 01:07:48,079 don't think we're going to find bones or 1858 01:07:51,750 --> 01:07:49,599 you know some astronauts out there it's 1859 01:07:53,589 --> 01:07:51,760 too long ago but there is the claim that 1860 01:07:56,390 --> 01:07:53,599 there are some survivors that they come 1861 01:07:58,789 --> 01:07:56,400 down in craft smaller craft and that 1862 01:08:00,549 --> 01:07:58,799 although they cannot live here long term 1863 01:08:02,630 --> 01:08:00,559 because they again some of this makes a 1864 01:08:04,470 --> 01:08:02,640 lot of sense to me is that they clarify 1865 01:08:07,270 --> 01:08:04,480 that they use genetic engineering 1866 01:08:10,710 --> 01:08:07,280 technologies on themselves so that they 1867 01:08:12,470 --> 01:08:10,720 can inhabit other worlds now again nasa 1868 01:08:14,069 --> 01:08:12,480 is actually exploring this today so talk 1869 01:08:16,390 --> 01:08:14,079 about the games looping around decided 1870 01:08:18,070 --> 01:08:16,400 that we may need to modify astronauts to 1871 01:08:20,149 --> 01:08:18,080 send them to live on mars and stuff 1872 01:08:22,229 --> 01:08:20,159 because we're not suited to other 1873 01:08:24,149 --> 01:08:22,239 planets right for a lot of reasons 1874 01:08:25,669 --> 01:08:24,159 so this and they do this they use these 1875 01:08:27,829 --> 01:08:25,679 advanced net engineering technologies on 1876 01:08:29,269 --> 01:08:27,839 themselves so that they can live on 1877 01:08:31,430 --> 01:08:29,279 worlds where the atmospheres and the 1878 01:08:33,269 --> 01:08:31,440 gravity and stuff are different 1879 01:08:35,030 --> 01:08:33,279 now they haven't had time to do this 1880 01:08:37,590 --> 01:08:35,040 before their ship is basically destroyed 1881 01:08:39,510 --> 01:08:37,600 as we come to so they are partially 1882 01:08:40,870 --> 01:08:39,520 changed but not enough to live here so 1883 01:08:43,590 --> 01:08:40,880 they tried they're dying from things 1884 01:08:45,990 --> 01:08:43,600 like bacteria in the water the levels of 1885 01:08:47,829 --> 01:08:46,000 solar radiation really like conventional 1886 01:08:49,510 --> 01:08:47,839 problems that we would have going to an 1887 01:08:51,189 --> 01:08:49,520 alien world so again there's logic to 1888 01:08:52,550 --> 01:08:51,199 this not necessarily the aliens land and 1889 01:08:53,990 --> 01:08:52,560 they can all breathe and they can eat 1890 01:08:55,110 --> 01:08:54,000 the food which again there's you know 1891 01:08:55,829 --> 01:08:55,120 people should question those kind of 1892 01:08:57,590 --> 01:08:55,839 stories 1893 01:08:59,430 --> 01:08:57,600 why would that be the case but then they 1894 01:09:01,030 --> 01:08:59,440 they have a problem and so they come to 1895 01:09:03,189 --> 01:09:01,040 this collusion is that what they can do 1896 01:09:05,990 --> 01:09:03,199 is with the remnants of their technology 1897 01:09:08,470 --> 01:09:06,000 is that they can modify an existing 1898 01:09:11,189 --> 01:09:08,480 hominin to make it more like them 1899 01:09:14,550 --> 01:09:11,199 upgrade it change it and set it on a 1900 01:09:17,669 --> 01:09:14,560 path to become like them and they feel 1901 01:09:19,990 --> 01:09:17,679 that that is a you know a worthy plan b 1902 01:09:22,070 --> 01:09:20,000 to their kind of colonizing this planet 1903 01:09:24,870 --> 01:09:22,080 if you like so this is the you know it's 1904 01:09:27,189 --> 01:09:24,880 not the plan it's the plan b and so they 1905 01:09:29,030 --> 01:09:27,199 describe taking some early what we'll 1906 01:09:31,749 --> 01:09:29,040 think of now as you know archaic commons 1907 01:09:33,189 --> 01:09:31,759 or super arcade hominins and taking them 1908 01:09:35,110 --> 01:09:33,199 and in a lab 1909 01:09:37,910 --> 01:09:35,120 taking embryos modifying and putting 1910 01:09:40,709 --> 01:09:37,920 these fetuses back in to be born so 1911 01:09:42,390 --> 01:09:40,719 modifying fetuses and implanting and 1912 01:09:43,990 --> 01:09:42,400 creating a new kind of human and 1913 01:09:45,189 --> 01:09:44,000 describe that some of these pro some of 1914 01:09:46,229 --> 01:09:45,199 these experiments don't go well they 1915 01:09:48,870 --> 01:09:46,239 said a lot of their technology's been 1916 01:09:51,430 --> 01:09:48,880 lost in this loss of the main ship so 1917 01:09:52,950 --> 01:09:51,440 they are working with what they have so 1918 01:09:54,390 --> 01:09:52,960 some of these initial experiments go 1919 01:09:56,390 --> 01:09:54,400 wrong again they're not perfect they're 1920 01:09:57,990 --> 01:09:56,400 not gods who can just do whatever they 1921 01:09:59,830 --> 01:09:58,000 have the same problems we might have 1922 01:10:01,189 --> 01:09:59,840 with technologies you know that doesn't 1923 01:10:03,030 --> 01:10:01,199 always work out 1924 01:10:04,630 --> 01:10:03,040 so again i found that quite consistent 1925 01:10:06,550 --> 01:10:04,640 and logical a lot of that is quite 1926 01:10:08,630 --> 01:10:06,560 logically consistent with reality 1927 01:10:10,390 --> 01:10:08,640 well i knew that you'd have to look in a 1928 01:10:12,070 --> 01:10:10,400 certain area of the genome 1929 01:10:13,350 --> 01:10:12,080 in particular and that's in what's 1930 01:10:15,030 --> 01:10:13,360 called 1931 01:10:18,310 --> 01:10:15,040 highly conserved 1932 01:10:19,990 --> 01:10:18,320 non-coding dna regions 1933 01:10:21,590 --> 01:10:20,000 and the reason for that is that if 1934 01:10:23,669 --> 01:10:21,600 you're looking at genes 1935 01:10:25,430 --> 01:10:23,679 those change due to 1936 01:10:28,630 --> 01:10:25,440 normal kind of selective pressures right 1937 01:10:30,630 --> 01:10:28,640 so over time genes change anything 1938 01:10:31,750 --> 01:10:30,640 obvious from engineering would almost 1939 01:10:33,750 --> 01:10:31,760 certainly be 1940 01:10:35,910 --> 01:10:33,760 like lost so 1941 01:10:39,510 --> 01:10:35,920 you have to look for areas where 1942 01:10:42,790 --> 01:10:39,520 the information stays very stable 1943 01:10:45,510 --> 01:10:42,800 you're building on existing science and 1944 01:10:47,430 --> 01:10:45,520 existing scientific questions and 1945 01:10:49,350 --> 01:10:47,440 challenges that the quote unquote 1946 01:10:51,830 --> 01:10:49,360 mainstream is trying to solve because 1947 01:10:55,189 --> 01:10:51,840 you didn't come up with these 1948 01:10:56,709 --> 01:10:55,199 human accelerated regions this 121 1949 01:10:58,790 --> 01:10:56,719 sequence i mean 1950 01:11:01,590 --> 01:10:58,800 scientists have done it for a reason 1951 01:11:03,750 --> 01:11:01,600 that for their own reason right 1952 01:11:05,270 --> 01:11:03,760 yeah i mean my says they sort of 1953 01:11:06,950 --> 01:11:05,280 stumbled on this so i don't think it was 1954 01:11:09,669 --> 01:11:06,960 setting out necessarily they stumbled on 1955 01:11:12,229 --> 01:11:09,679 these regions where they realized that 1956 01:11:13,910 --> 01:11:12,239 you know in a comparative studies that 1957 01:11:15,110 --> 01:11:13,920 some of these segments of highly 1958 01:11:16,550 --> 01:11:15,120 conserved 1959 01:11:17,590 --> 01:11:16,560 code 1960 01:11:18,790 --> 01:11:17,600 differ 1961 01:11:20,470 --> 01:11:18,800 massively 1962 01:11:23,030 --> 01:11:20,480 to expectations you know so when you 1963 01:11:24,790 --> 01:11:23,040 contrast and i it's my favorite example 1964 01:11:26,709 --> 01:11:24,800 is always this one with the hal1 which 1965 01:11:28,950 --> 01:11:26,719 is the first human accelerated region to 1966 01:11:31,669 --> 01:11:28,960 be discovered where they had 1967 01:11:34,310 --> 01:11:31,679 cross-referenced chickens chimpanzees 1968 01:11:36,550 --> 01:11:34,320 and humans and what they found was that 1969 01:11:39,350 --> 01:11:36,560 basically that in the chicken and the 1970 01:11:42,709 --> 01:11:39,360 chimpanzee this short segment i think so 1971 01:11:44,390 --> 01:11:42,719 it's 118 dna letters long which is very 1972 01:11:47,350 --> 01:11:44,400 short especially in terms of glutamate 1973 01:11:50,070 --> 01:11:47,360 genes that would be very short so that 1974 01:11:51,750 --> 01:11:50,080 in these two species there were two 1975 01:11:53,030 --> 01:11:51,760 letters that were different now the 1976 01:11:54,709 --> 01:11:53,040 chimp and the 1977 01:11:57,750 --> 01:11:54,719 chimpanzee so the chicken and the 1978 01:12:00,390 --> 01:11:57,760 chimpanzee have been evolving separately 1979 01:12:03,430 --> 01:12:00,400 for at least 300 million years 1980 01:12:05,750 --> 01:12:03,440 right so that's one successful stable 1981 01:12:08,709 --> 01:12:05,760 change you know one letter changing for 1982 01:12:10,790 --> 01:12:08,719 every 150 million years 1983 01:12:13,110 --> 01:12:10,800 so the reason this pops up is they go 1984 01:12:15,910 --> 01:12:13,120 whoa this is interesting here's kind of 1985 01:12:18,310 --> 01:12:15,920 anomaly this sequence here it doesn't 1986 01:12:21,430 --> 01:12:18,320 change at all i mean changes two times 1987 01:12:23,669 --> 01:12:21,440 in 300 million years that's curious what 1988 01:12:25,910 --> 01:12:23,679 can we do with it absolutely yeah i mean 1989 01:12:27,510 --> 01:12:25,920 we've we've now got you know 1990 01:12:28,870 --> 01:12:27,520 well the whole genome has been mapped 1991 01:12:31,510 --> 01:12:28,880 for example in humans so i mean we're at 1992 01:12:34,229 --> 01:12:31,520 a point where the knowledge now is you 1993 01:12:36,390 --> 01:12:34,239 know really vast and really intricate so 1994 01:12:38,950 --> 01:12:36,400 they're able to do these kinds of you 1995 01:12:41,430 --> 01:12:38,960 know uh detailed contrast between 1996 01:12:42,950 --> 01:12:41,440 species and so we understand you know 1997 01:12:44,390 --> 01:12:42,960 the differences between us and a chimp 1998 01:12:46,550 --> 01:12:44,400 and the difference between us and uh you 1999 01:12:47,750 --> 01:12:46,560 know we've got this point where they can 2000 01:12:49,830 --> 01:12:47,760 you know you can look for segments of 2001 01:12:52,390 --> 01:12:49,840 code and contrast them going back 2002 01:12:54,870 --> 01:12:52,400 to when when were we 2003 01:12:56,149 --> 01:12:54,880 last very alike to that creature so you 2004 01:12:57,350 --> 01:12:56,159 know we're able to trace it back and say 2005 01:12:59,189 --> 01:12:57,360 that you know see 2006 01:13:01,350 --> 01:12:59,199 this is the only difference is this 2007 01:13:03,030 --> 01:13:01,360 isn't this between us and you know uh 2008 01:13:04,310 --> 01:13:03,040 then an aardvark or whatever so we can 2009 01:13:06,070 --> 01:13:04,320 do that so they're doing this they use 2010 01:13:08,310 --> 01:13:06,080 this segment to then contrast and they 2011 01:13:09,990 --> 01:13:08,320 can find that okay yes you know you know 2012 01:13:12,470 --> 01:13:10,000 chicken and chimpanzee 2013 01:13:14,310 --> 01:13:12,480 super stable two changes that's amazing 2014 01:13:16,310 --> 01:13:14,320 must do something very important 2015 01:13:19,669 --> 01:13:16,320 otherwise you'll be lost you'll change 2016 01:13:23,030 --> 01:13:19,679 more so clearly small changes in it 2017 01:13:24,310 --> 01:13:23,040 must have quite drastic outcomes like it 2018 01:13:25,910 --> 01:13:24,320 dies 2019 01:13:27,430 --> 01:13:25,920 you know because why wouldn't these 2020 01:13:29,350 --> 01:13:27,440 changes keep happening and persist why 2021 01:13:31,510 --> 01:13:29,360 is there only two successful ones in 300 2022 01:13:33,270 --> 01:13:31,520 million years that code must be doing 2023 01:13:34,550 --> 01:13:33,280 something quite important 2024 01:13:37,110 --> 01:13:34,560 so 2025 01:13:39,110 --> 01:13:37,120 then if you look at chimps and humans 2026 01:13:41,750 --> 01:13:39,120 you expect it to be identical that's 2027 01:13:44,550 --> 01:13:41,760 because you know 300 million years for 2028 01:13:46,070 --> 01:13:44,560 chicken and chimp but only about seven 2029 01:13:47,990 --> 01:13:46,080 or eight million years difference 2030 01:13:49,910 --> 01:13:48,000 between us and chimps that's 2031 01:13:50,630 --> 01:13:49,920 conventional understanding is it as it 2032 01:13:52,229 --> 01:13:50,640 is 2033 01:13:53,830 --> 01:13:52,239 so you would expect there to be none 2034 01:13:56,149 --> 01:13:53,840 because it's not the 150 million years 2035 01:13:58,390 --> 01:13:56,159 required for one letter to change so 2036 01:14:01,189 --> 01:13:58,400 what they found instead though was that 2037 01:14:03,430 --> 01:14:01,199 18 letters had changed 2038 01:14:06,070 --> 01:14:03,440 so that was just wildly outside the 2039 01:14:07,350 --> 01:14:06,080 ballpark of what should have been 2040 01:14:09,590 --> 01:14:07,360 observed 2041 01:14:11,669 --> 01:14:09,600 you're talking about statistics and you 2042 01:14:13,750 --> 01:14:11,679 can put that in the hand of some static 2043 01:14:16,070 --> 01:14:13,760 statistician and they can say boom and 2044 01:14:18,870 --> 01:14:16,080 then they can compare that with 7 8 2045 01:14:21,110 --> 01:14:18,880 million years 18 changes they can crank 2046 01:14:22,550 --> 01:14:21,120 that out in their excel spreadsheet not 2047 01:14:25,830 --> 01:14:22,560 an excel spreadsheet but you get the 2048 01:14:27,910 --> 01:14:25,840 point and it comes out with a statistic 2049 01:14:29,990 --> 01:14:27,920 that everyone would point to and say 2050 01:14:33,350 --> 01:14:30,000 yeah that's that's the math that's what 2051 01:14:35,910 --> 01:14:33,360 it is and the number is astronomically 2052 01:14:38,310 --> 01:14:35,920 high that that would be by chance right 2053 01:14:41,270 --> 01:14:38,320 is that oversimplifying it no absolutely 2054 01:14:43,030 --> 01:14:41,280 and in fact the the discoverer of human 2055 01:14:45,189 --> 01:14:43,040 accelerated region one 2056 01:14:46,709 --> 01:14:45,199 um name's one of my life mode but she is 2057 01:14:48,669 --> 01:14:46,719 herself i think it's professor pollard 2058 01:14:51,430 --> 01:14:48,679 i'm not that wrong but she is herself a 2059 01:14:53,189 --> 01:14:51,440 biostatistician who helps design the 2060 01:14:54,950 --> 01:14:53,199 programs that work out these kind of 2061 01:14:57,510 --> 01:14:54,960 chances right so she does not you know 2062 01:14:59,030 --> 01:14:57,520 she worked on to help 2063 01:15:01,270 --> 01:14:59,040 understand the likelihood of that 2064 01:15:03,110 --> 01:15:01,280 happening and so and that came out as 2065 01:15:04,310 --> 01:15:03,120 essentially zero that's what you know 2066 01:15:06,070 --> 01:15:04,320 she wrote it's you know i think you see 2067 01:15:07,669 --> 01:15:06,080 an american scientist or new science 20s 2068 01:15:09,750 --> 01:15:07,679 magazines but she's saying basically it 2069 01:15:12,550 --> 01:15:09,760 comes out as essentially zero 2070 01:15:14,950 --> 01:15:12,560 so by any understood 2071 01:15:16,390 --> 01:15:14,960 means of evolution that should not be 2072 01:15:18,070 --> 01:15:16,400 the case so they're saying something we 2073 01:15:20,310 --> 01:15:18,080 don't understand 2074 01:15:21,990 --> 01:15:20,320 is acting upon these segments 2075 01:15:23,430 --> 01:15:22,000 right so that's where they were at when 2076 01:15:25,830 --> 01:15:23,440 they discovered it and obviously there's 2077 01:15:27,270 --> 01:15:25,840 been a series of papers now on h on 2078 01:15:29,430 --> 01:15:27,280 human accelerated regions they found 2079 01:15:31,030 --> 01:15:29,440 many more of them there are at least 2080 01:15:33,350 --> 01:15:31,040 several hundred 2081 01:15:34,630 --> 01:15:33,360 now some of them are understood a bit 2082 01:15:36,070 --> 01:15:34,640 some of them have no understanding just 2083 01:15:38,550 --> 01:15:36,080 know that they're there so in other 2084 01:15:40,790 --> 01:15:38,560 words what they have found is that 2085 01:15:42,550 --> 01:15:40,800 most of the ones where they have some 2086 01:15:44,870 --> 01:15:42,560 understanding what we do 2087 01:15:47,510 --> 01:15:44,880 are tied up with 2088 01:15:48,950 --> 01:15:47,520 uh brain changes during fetal 2089 01:15:52,390 --> 01:15:48,960 development 2090 01:15:55,030 --> 01:15:52,400 and i and i think that's massive 2091 01:15:56,790 --> 01:15:55,040 okay is there any way to tie any of this 2092 01:15:58,950 --> 01:15:56,800 and i know there is because i've 2093 01:16:02,550 --> 01:15:58,960 read and listened your stuff 2094 01:16:04,709 --> 01:16:02,560 to some of the dates we're talking about 2095 01:16:06,310 --> 01:16:04,719 yeah because we've got 2096 01:16:09,189 --> 01:16:06,320 none of these changes there's some other 2097 01:16:10,229 --> 01:16:09,199 uh interesting genes that occur you know 2098 01:16:11,350 --> 01:16:10,239 that appear well there's one that's 2099 01:16:13,350 --> 01:16:11,360 actually described brain gene that's 2100 01:16:15,110 --> 01:16:13,360 occurred as appearing fully formed from 2101 01:16:17,590 --> 01:16:15,120 non-coding dna 2102 01:16:18,790 --> 01:16:17,600 uh which i think gives it the neocortex 2103 01:16:20,390 --> 01:16:18,800 and then there's another one there's a 2104 01:16:22,550 --> 01:16:20,400 segment of a gene so there's also these 2105 01:16:24,709 --> 01:16:22,560 as well as hr's there are genes and 2106 01:16:26,229 --> 01:16:24,719 segments of genes and also the fusion of 2107 01:16:27,990 --> 01:16:26,239 chromosome two all of these things are 2108 01:16:29,110 --> 01:16:28,000 really important to what if you look 2109 01:16:31,910 --> 01:16:29,120 into it these are the things that 2110 01:16:34,470 --> 01:16:31,920 consider to make humans what they are 2111 01:16:35,669 --> 01:16:34,480 big brains a opposite firms you know all 2112 01:16:37,189 --> 01:16:35,679 this stuff that makes us different to 2113 01:16:39,270 --> 01:16:37,199 all the other primates 2114 01:16:40,630 --> 01:16:39,280 but so what we understand because dating 2115 01:16:42,790 --> 01:16:40,640 some of these changes difficult at the 2116 01:16:45,990 --> 01:16:42,800 genetic level to be precise but what we 2117 01:16:48,709 --> 01:16:46,000 do know is that from the fossil record 2118 01:16:51,910 --> 01:16:48,719 it was already understood that around 2119 01:16:54,790 --> 01:16:51,920 about 800 000 years ago there is an 2120 01:16:57,510 --> 01:16:54,800 inexplicable sudden change in the 2121 01:16:58,470 --> 01:16:57,520 cranial capacity of humans 2122 01:17:00,229 --> 01:16:58,480 and so 2123 01:17:02,550 --> 01:17:00,239 for many years before the field of 2124 01:17:04,470 --> 01:17:02,560 genetics there was big questions over 2125 01:17:06,790 --> 01:17:04,480 what was happening then so in other 2126 01:17:09,110 --> 01:17:06,800 words we now know of course that those 2127 01:17:11,990 --> 01:17:09,120 changes are expressions of genetic 2128 01:17:15,030 --> 01:17:12,000 change so we can see the physical shift 2129 01:17:17,270 --> 01:17:15,040 underway that has to be tied to these 2130 01:17:18,870 --> 01:17:17,280 genetic changes so though you can't 2131 01:17:19,910 --> 01:17:18,880 pinpoint daytona we know again some of 2132 01:17:21,990 --> 01:17:19,920 them are dated 2133 01:17:23,750 --> 01:17:22,000 somewhere towards a million years or 2134 01:17:24,950 --> 01:17:23,760 somewhere in the age of you know it's 2135 01:17:27,189 --> 01:17:24,960 difficult to be that precise but when 2136 01:17:29,669 --> 01:17:27,199 you can see the physical changes we can 2137 01:17:31,590 --> 01:17:29,679 date those in the fossil record so we 2138 01:17:34,709 --> 01:17:31,600 know that this radical change in the 2139 01:17:37,590 --> 01:17:34,719 human brain goes underway around about 2140 01:17:40,070 --> 01:17:37,600 800 000 years ago now whilst we know is 2141 01:17:43,270 --> 01:17:40,080 of course is that now we understand that 2142 01:17:46,630 --> 01:17:43,280 neanderthals denisovans and the direct 2143 01:17:49,750 --> 01:17:46,640 answers to modern humans right the the 2144 01:17:51,750 --> 01:17:49,760 the divergence it's like the formation 2145 01:17:54,229 --> 01:17:51,760 of these different groups the divergence 2146 01:17:55,350 --> 01:17:54,239 from the archaic ancestors that is 2147 01:17:57,990 --> 01:17:55,360 happening 2148 01:18:00,790 --> 01:17:58,000 roughly 700 to 800 000 years ago 2149 01:18:03,750 --> 01:18:00,800 depending on who you look at paper and 2150 01:18:05,750 --> 01:18:03,760 what did we think that date was 2151 01:18:07,910 --> 01:18:05,760 20 years ago or when you started this 2152 01:18:08,790 --> 01:18:07,920 research because the dates shifted right 2153 01:18:11,350 --> 01:18:08,800 yeah 2154 01:18:12,790 --> 01:18:11,360 about 400 000 or so years ago so this is 2155 01:18:14,790 --> 01:18:12,800 totally different so if you would say 2156 01:18:16,550 --> 01:18:14,800 ten years ago you know oh you know i 2157 01:18:18,229 --> 01:18:16,560 know someone modified us and they 2158 01:18:19,910 --> 01:18:18,239 created us in trousers 2159 01:18:21,990 --> 01:18:19,920 i know because you know neanderthals on 2160 01:18:24,390 --> 01:18:22,000 us we don't really separate until 400 2161 01:18:26,709 --> 01:18:24,400 000 years ago uh the beginnings of our 2162 01:18:28,229 --> 01:18:26,719 species are probably 500 000 years ago 2163 01:18:30,390 --> 01:18:28,239 so this has shifted back just in the 2164 01:18:32,070 --> 01:18:30,400 last few years so we now understand 2165 01:18:34,149 --> 01:18:32,080 actually no there's evidence from 2166 01:18:35,910 --> 01:18:34,159 proteins from genes from you know and 2167 01:18:37,189 --> 01:18:35,920 from the fossil record from teeth as 2168 01:18:39,110 --> 01:18:37,199 well they're looking at where they've 2169 01:18:41,030 --> 01:18:39,120 they've now got enough evidence to say 2170 01:18:44,229 --> 01:18:41,040 well based on everything that we now 2171 01:18:47,030 --> 01:18:44,239 have we can see that this this split 2172 01:18:48,870 --> 01:18:47,040 from these archaics towards these large 2173 01:18:51,030 --> 01:18:48,880 brained humans so includes obviously 2174 01:18:53,350 --> 01:18:51,040 neanderthals denisovans and us that that 2175 01:18:55,350 --> 01:18:53,360 is occurring roughly seven to eight 2176 01:18:57,270 --> 01:18:55,360 hundred thousand years ago and the 2177 01:18:59,430 --> 01:18:57,280 dating on the chromosome two fusion 2178 01:19:00,950 --> 01:18:59,440 which had another key change 2179 01:19:02,950 --> 01:19:00,960 that has been dated by at least one 2180 01:19:05,350 --> 01:19:02,960 british biologist as being around about 2181 01:19:06,950 --> 01:19:05,360 750 or so thousand years ago because you 2182 01:19:08,390 --> 01:19:06,960 can see it happens at the beginning of 2183 01:19:10,229 --> 01:19:08,400 this split between neanderthals and 2184 01:19:11,189 --> 01:19:10,239 dinosaurs they all have it as well but 2185 01:19:12,950 --> 01:19:11,199 that is happening at the beginning of 2186 01:19:15,510 --> 01:19:12,960 that split so we know that there's these 2187 01:19:18,630 --> 01:19:15,520 things are occurring and we can see the 2188 01:19:20,550 --> 01:19:18,640 changes happening physically here so 2189 01:19:21,669 --> 01:19:20,560 that's the interesting addition that you 2190 01:19:23,189 --> 01:19:21,679 know rather than saying something like a 2191 01:19:24,790 --> 01:19:23,199 million years according to genetics we 2192 01:19:26,390 --> 01:19:24,800 can say well let's look at the skulls 2193 01:19:28,870 --> 01:19:26,400 let's see what's going on we can see 2194 01:19:30,550 --> 01:19:28,880 this radical shift um the cranial 2195 01:19:33,590 --> 01:19:30,560 capacity just accelerates massively 2196 01:19:36,149 --> 01:19:33,600 beyond body size changes where in the 2197 01:19:38,709 --> 01:19:36,159 past you could sort of track body size 2198 01:19:40,470 --> 01:19:38,719 increase which skull capacity increase 2199 01:19:41,990 --> 01:19:40,480 so if you look around 8500 on the chart 2200 01:19:43,910 --> 01:19:42,000 and there are charts people look at this 2201 01:19:46,390 --> 01:19:43,920 there's a sudden acceleration in this 2202 01:19:47,590 --> 01:19:46,400 screen of capacity so again you can mesh 2203 01:19:49,750 --> 01:19:47,600 physical 2204 01:19:51,350 --> 01:19:49,760 with genetics which is really i think 2205 01:19:54,550 --> 01:19:51,360 crucial 2206 01:19:55,510 --> 01:19:54,560 okay so i i hope we've kind of made the 2207 01:19:56,390 --> 01:19:55,520 case 2208 01:19:58,790 --> 01:19:56,400 that 2209 01:19:59,990 --> 01:19:58,800 you've approached this from a scientific 2210 01:20:02,470 --> 01:20:00,000 perspective 2211 01:20:04,870 --> 01:20:02,480 and while as you said at the beginning 2212 01:20:06,629 --> 01:20:04,880 you know you can't go to toe to toe with 2213 01:20:09,110 --> 01:20:06,639 someone who has 2214 01:20:11,830 --> 01:20:09,120 multiple phds and fellowships on each 2215 01:20:13,110 --> 01:20:11,840 one of these topics but as anyone who's 2216 01:20:14,229 --> 01:20:13,120 listening this 2217 01:20:17,270 --> 01:20:14,239 can tell 2218 01:20:18,870 --> 01:20:17,280 you can go toe-to-toe with them up to a 2219 01:20:21,510 --> 01:20:18,880 point and 2220 01:20:24,070 --> 01:20:21,520 if you were totally full of crap 2221 01:20:26,470 --> 01:20:24,080 you would be shot down and you're not 2222 01:20:29,430 --> 01:20:26,480 being shot down and as a matter of fact 2223 01:20:32,629 --> 01:20:29,440 your ideas are building upon the very 2224 01:20:35,510 --> 01:20:32,639 best science we have of the time 2225 01:20:37,510 --> 01:20:35,520 so if we accept that as kind of the 2226 01:20:40,550 --> 01:20:37,520 theory that we have to go to what are 2227 01:20:43,189 --> 01:20:40,560 some of the most striking implications 2228 01:20:45,590 --> 01:20:43,199 for you big picture-wise who are we why 2229 01:20:47,110 --> 01:20:45,600 are we here what are ufos 2230 01:20:49,350 --> 01:20:47,120 what do they want 2231 01:20:52,390 --> 01:20:49,360 how long have they been here what are 2232 01:20:55,110 --> 01:20:52,400 they doing and what's good et versus bad 2233 01:20:57,270 --> 01:20:55,120 et now we can ask those questions at a 2234 01:20:59,189 --> 01:20:57,280 different level what do you think 2235 01:21:00,709 --> 01:20:59,199 yeah absolutely because i mean 2236 01:21:02,390 --> 01:21:00,719 there's some things you can't like if we 2237 01:21:04,950 --> 01:21:02,400 can establish say that you know 2238 01:21:08,629 --> 01:21:04,960 some intelligence was here with a 2239 01:21:10,790 --> 01:21:08,639 technology 788 000 years ago and that 2240 01:21:12,629 --> 01:21:10,800 may well be you know intertwined with 2241 01:21:14,950 --> 01:21:12,639 our evolution either directly or just by 2242 01:21:16,709 --> 01:21:14,960 the fact it's there it's gonna have some 2243 01:21:19,110 --> 01:21:16,719 relevance to our evolution 2244 01:21:20,870 --> 01:21:19,120 right that i don't i can't say whether 2245 01:21:23,430 --> 01:21:20,880 it came i can't be certain whether it 2246 01:21:25,110 --> 01:21:23,440 came from outer space uh you know 2247 01:21:28,149 --> 01:21:25,120 from alpha centauri or the pleiades 2248 01:21:29,510 --> 01:21:28,159 which i suggest but you know i can't 2249 01:21:31,510 --> 01:21:29,520 confirm that i can't confirm whether it 2250 01:21:34,070 --> 01:21:31,520 wasn't some ancient martian civilization 2251 01:21:36,390 --> 01:21:34,080 or you know was dinosaurs but what we 2252 01:21:38,149 --> 01:21:36,400 can say is that some other intelligence 2253 01:21:40,470 --> 01:21:38,159 alien to us 2254 01:21:42,149 --> 01:21:40,480 was present so then where are they now 2255 01:21:44,229 --> 01:21:42,159 so it was that big question are they 2256 01:21:46,149 --> 01:21:44,239 still lurking and if so what are they 2257 01:21:48,709 --> 01:21:46,159 doing why aren't they making contact 2258 01:21:49,669 --> 01:21:48,719 what's their agenda or have they gone in 2259 01:21:51,270 --> 01:21:49,679 which case 2260 01:21:53,510 --> 01:21:51,280 will they come back what would they do 2261 01:21:55,910 --> 01:21:53,520 if they did come back or have they gone 2262 01:21:57,189 --> 01:21:55,920 extinct if so why is that our destiny i 2263 01:21:58,229 --> 01:21:57,199 think it opens those questions and 2264 01:22:00,310 --> 01:21:58,239 people have to start thinking well if 2265 01:22:03,030 --> 01:22:00,320 they were there then where are they now 2266 01:22:04,390 --> 01:22:03,040 what are they doing what's coming for us 2267 01:22:06,870 --> 01:22:04,400 and those are definitely massive 2268 01:22:08,870 --> 01:22:06,880 questions that instantly happen and then 2269 01:22:10,390 --> 01:22:08,880 of course if we've been modified you 2270 01:22:13,110 --> 01:22:10,400 have to stop saying well 2271 01:22:15,750 --> 01:22:13,120 why what is this longer term agenda have 2272 01:22:18,629 --> 01:22:15,760 we been further modified will we be 2273 01:22:21,510 --> 01:22:18,639 again modified right so these are 2274 01:22:23,590 --> 01:22:21,520 massive massive burning questions around 2275 01:22:24,790 --> 01:22:23,600 us once you establish this some reality 2276 01:22:27,110 --> 01:22:24,800 to this 2277 01:22:29,110 --> 01:22:27,120 see and i i i'm with you on all that i 2278 01:22:31,430 --> 01:22:29,120 take somewhat of a different take in 2279 01:22:34,470 --> 01:22:31,440 terms of the burden of proof thing 2280 01:22:35,669 --> 01:22:34,480 because i think you've established ufo 2281 01:22:36,870 --> 01:22:35,679 reality 2282 01:22:39,030 --> 01:22:36,880 spaceship 2283 01:22:41,110 --> 01:22:39,040 you know so again burden of perform 2284 01:22:44,550 --> 01:22:41,120 somebody to say that silica object 2285 01:22:48,390 --> 01:22:44,560 that's orbiting is not a spaceship 2286 01:22:52,550 --> 01:22:48,400 to me again it's it's a spaceship and by 2287 01:22:56,550 --> 01:22:52,560 extension if there's spaceships 780 000 2288 01:22:58,550 --> 01:22:56,560 years ago with advanced technology then 2289 01:23:00,790 --> 01:22:58,560 all bets are off and when people want to 2290 01:23:03,030 --> 01:23:00,800 start telling me about 2291 01:23:06,070 --> 01:23:03,040 you know roswell and all the rest i'm 2292 01:23:08,550 --> 01:23:06,080 like great but we have to fit it now 2293 01:23:09,990 --> 01:23:08,560 into this larger time frame 2294 01:23:12,149 --> 01:23:10,000 and we can talk about all the other 2295 01:23:15,910 --> 01:23:12,159 stuff but we can't talk about 2296 01:23:17,510 --> 01:23:15,920 it's just advanced technology it's like 2297 01:23:19,510 --> 01:23:17,520 really it's just earth-based advanced 2298 01:23:21,990 --> 01:23:19,520 technology again the burden proof would 2299 01:23:24,470 --> 01:23:22,000 be on you but in doing that you would 2300 01:23:29,270 --> 01:23:24,480 have to incorporate in bruce's object 2301 01:23:30,790 --> 01:23:29,280 from 780 000 years ago uh the aliens are 2302 01:23:32,470 --> 01:23:30,800 good 2303 01:23:34,709 --> 01:23:32,480 and they're environmentalists and 2304 01:23:36,870 --> 01:23:34,719 they're trying to protect the planet 2305 01:23:39,830 --> 01:23:36,880 well again now you're gonna have to fit 2306 01:23:41,910 --> 01:23:39,840 that in with a bombardment five years 2307 01:23:44,149 --> 01:23:41,920 after this occurs where they risk 2308 01:23:46,550 --> 01:23:44,159 blowing up the planet in order to get 2309 01:23:48,629 --> 01:23:46,560 the guys they don't like out of their 2310 01:23:51,189 --> 01:23:48,639 underground villages you know 2311 01:23:54,070 --> 01:23:51,199 that doesn't sound like 2312 01:23:56,790 --> 01:23:54,080 everyone in the galactic federation is 2313 01:23:58,629 --> 01:23:56,800 on the same page in terms of how we deal 2314 01:23:59,990 --> 01:23:58,639 with conflict so 2315 01:24:01,510 --> 01:24:00,000 do you get what i'm saying what do you 2316 01:24:03,270 --> 01:24:01,520 think about that 2317 01:24:05,110 --> 01:24:03,280 yeah absolutely this you know 2318 01:24:08,229 --> 01:24:05,120 he should make us rethink the whole you 2319 01:24:09,350 --> 01:24:08,239 know ufo alien contact topic entirely i 2320 01:24:11,030 --> 01:24:09,360 mean i i 2321 01:24:12,470 --> 01:24:11,040 instantly makes me think of for example 2322 01:24:13,510 --> 01:24:12,480 you know jack ballet you know basically 2323 01:24:15,510 --> 01:24:13,520 pretty familiar 2324 01:24:18,310 --> 01:24:15,520 but his idea that what we're seeing in 2325 01:24:19,990 --> 01:24:18,320 the ufo phenomena and the interrelated 2326 01:24:22,070 --> 01:24:20,000 aspects that connect to it so everything 2327 01:24:24,070 --> 01:24:22,080 from alien abductions to strange 2328 01:24:25,910 --> 01:24:24,080 encounters and you know seemingly 2329 01:24:27,430 --> 01:24:25,920 mystical experiences uh what he has 2330 01:24:29,189 --> 01:24:27,440 referred to is kind of an evolutionary 2331 01:24:32,229 --> 01:24:29,199 control grid now if there is an 2332 01:24:34,310 --> 01:24:32,239 intelligence interested in our evolution 2333 01:24:36,550 --> 01:24:34,320 and then you take their the famous 2334 01:24:37,669 --> 01:24:36,560 obviously clock quote of you know abuse 2335 01:24:39,750 --> 01:24:37,679 officer club 2336 01:24:41,669 --> 01:24:39,760 any uh sufficiently advanced technology 2337 01:24:43,030 --> 01:24:41,679 is indistinguishable from magic a lot of 2338 01:24:44,950 --> 01:24:43,040 these things happening to people are 2339 01:24:47,510 --> 01:24:44,960 magical seeming right like say the 2340 01:24:49,270 --> 01:24:47,520 abduction phenomena it's magical seeming 2341 01:24:51,350 --> 01:24:49,280 because there's a lot of cases where you 2342 01:24:53,030 --> 01:24:51,360 can say they definitely were not taken 2343 01:24:54,709 --> 01:24:53,040 anywhere physically because people were 2344 01:24:56,229 --> 01:24:54,719 there and stuff right but they've had 2345 01:24:59,110 --> 01:24:56,239 experiences as though they want alien 2346 01:25:00,790 --> 01:24:59,120 ships having you know eggs taken and 2347 01:25:03,350 --> 01:25:00,800 things that don't seem to be happening 2348 01:25:04,709 --> 01:25:03,360 in consensus reality in physical terms 2349 01:25:06,470 --> 01:25:04,719 but are happening for them and they've 2350 01:25:08,790 --> 01:25:06,480 got ptsd and everything these things are 2351 01:25:11,110 --> 01:25:08,800 happening to them in some way magical 2352 01:25:13,830 --> 01:25:11,120 things now if we think of a technology 2353 01:25:16,709 --> 01:25:13,840 or a race that is so incomprehensible to 2354 01:25:19,030 --> 01:25:16,719 us that what it does is magical then you 2355 01:25:20,709 --> 01:25:19,040 you have to reevaluate the whole thing 2356 01:25:22,550 --> 01:25:20,719 and say yeah is this an evolutionary 2357 01:25:24,709 --> 01:25:22,560 control grid which involves not only 2358 01:25:27,750 --> 01:25:24,719 physical technologies maybe probes that 2359 01:25:28,950 --> 01:25:27,760 watch and interact but magical stuff 2360 01:25:30,550 --> 01:25:28,960 where you know things we can't 2361 01:25:32,709 --> 01:25:30,560 comprehend that deal with 2362 01:25:34,070 --> 01:25:32,719 interdimensional knowledge you know 2363 01:25:35,830 --> 01:25:34,080 maybe somebody's technological maybe 2364 01:25:38,950 --> 01:25:35,840 some of it's their consciousness is able 2365 01:25:41,270 --> 01:25:38,960 to hack into us in telepathic ways and 2366 01:25:42,709 --> 01:25:41,280 project experiences into our brains i 2367 01:25:45,110 --> 01:25:42,719 mean you have to start opening your door 2368 01:25:47,350 --> 01:25:45,120 into what sounds like crazy sci-fi but 2369 01:25:49,189 --> 01:25:47,360 any species that nearly a million years 2370 01:25:51,590 --> 01:25:49,199 ago could fly around in giant silica 2371 01:25:54,070 --> 01:25:51,600 craft what is it doing now 2372 01:25:55,990 --> 01:25:54,080 exactly and there's a completely 2373 01:25:56,870 --> 01:25:56,000 different way to take that as well and 2374 01:25:58,629 --> 01:25:56,880 that's 2375 01:26:01,669 --> 01:25:58,639 the importance of like we said with the 2376 01:26:03,270 --> 01:26:01,679 charinga technology associated with it 2377 01:26:05,350 --> 01:26:03,280 and you always come back to that i think 2378 01:26:08,470 --> 01:26:05,360 the technology angle on this is super 2379 01:26:10,950 --> 01:26:08,480 interesting i think the silica ship ai 2380 01:26:13,030 --> 01:26:10,960 intelligence ship is interesting i think 2381 01:26:15,350 --> 01:26:13,040 the genetic engineering and the failed 2382 01:26:18,390 --> 01:26:15,360 genetic engineering is interesting 2383 01:26:19,910 --> 01:26:18,400 because it suggests as does the silica 2384 01:26:22,390 --> 01:26:19,920 chip that 2385 01:26:25,270 --> 01:26:22,400 maybe the technology gap 2386 01:26:28,629 --> 01:26:25,280 isn't what we might imagine maybe it 2387 01:26:31,030 --> 01:26:28,639 starts sounding a lot closer to the kind 2388 01:26:33,110 --> 01:26:31,040 of stuff we're familiar with oh yeah we 2389 01:26:35,030 --> 01:26:33,120 made the program but the ai screwed up 2390 01:26:36,470 --> 01:26:35,040 because it is just a program and we 2391 01:26:37,990 --> 01:26:36,480 unplugged it and it 2392 01:26:39,910 --> 01:26:38,000 didn't do what it's supposed to do 2393 01:26:41,189 --> 01:26:39,920 genetically 2394 01:26:43,590 --> 01:26:41,199 exactly 2395 01:26:44,550 --> 01:26:43,600 you know oh we genetically modified 2396 01:26:46,310 --> 01:26:44,560 these 2397 01:26:47,910 --> 01:26:46,320 fetuses but we didn't really know how to 2398 01:26:50,229 --> 01:26:47,920 do it because we didn't have the you 2399 01:26:52,629 --> 01:26:50,239 know the right equipment that's again 2400 01:26:53,910 --> 01:26:52,639 sounding very human and this is now on 2401 01:26:56,550 --> 01:26:53,920 the table because the other thing you 2402 01:26:59,270 --> 01:26:56,560 said was jacques play love jacqueline 2403 01:27:01,669 --> 01:26:59,280 awesome huge contributor to this 2404 01:27:04,390 --> 01:27:01,679 understanding of the phenomenon in 2405 01:27:06,310 --> 01:27:04,400 general but a lot of people take that 2406 01:27:08,550 --> 01:27:06,320 and go the uber consciousness thing 2407 01:27:10,550 --> 01:27:08,560 right so there's there's it's all 2408 01:27:13,350 --> 01:27:10,560 consciousness you know there's none of 2409 01:27:15,590 --> 01:27:13,360 this well this flies in the face of that 2410 01:27:18,709 --> 01:27:15,600 right the tectite that you hold in your 2411 01:27:21,990 --> 01:27:18,719 hand is in this here now consensus 2412 01:27:25,189 --> 01:27:22,000 reality it is materialistic science that 2413 01:27:27,830 --> 01:27:25,199 we've used to analyze that to date that 2414 01:27:30,070 --> 01:27:27,840 to tell us what the elements are and how 2415 01:27:32,310 --> 01:27:30,080 they're formed that's very 2416 01:27:33,910 --> 01:27:32,320 third dimension materialistic science 2417 01:27:35,830 --> 01:27:33,920 too so 2418 01:27:37,750 --> 01:27:35,840 again that's why i think this work is so 2419 01:27:39,189 --> 01:27:37,760 important because it kind of drives a 2420 01:27:40,870 --> 01:27:39,199 stake in the ground and says hey don't 2421 01:27:44,390 --> 01:27:40,880 go too far with that you want to go 2422 01:27:47,590 --> 01:27:44,400 fairies and bigfoot right but it does 2423 01:27:50,229 --> 01:27:47,600 kind of come back to spaceships and 2424 01:27:51,750 --> 01:27:50,239 lasers from space too you know what do 2425 01:27:54,229 --> 01:27:51,760 you think about that yeah absolutely i 2426 01:27:56,790 --> 01:27:54,239 mean i i tend to think of 2427 01:27:58,470 --> 01:27:56,800 to my knowledge you know and having 2428 01:28:00,550 --> 01:27:58,480 looked at a lot of strange stuff for a 2429 01:28:03,830 --> 01:28:00,560 very long time that this is the only 2430 01:28:05,110 --> 01:28:03,840 line of research where we can really 2431 01:28:07,590 --> 01:28:05,120 do say stick that sticking around and 2432 01:28:09,430 --> 01:28:07,600 say well this is a physical event 2433 01:28:11,750 --> 01:28:09,440 involving an alien intelligence it's 2434 01:28:13,750 --> 01:28:11,760 very alien to us no matter where we came 2435 01:28:16,470 --> 01:28:13,760 from alien to humans that could do 2436 01:28:18,550 --> 01:28:16,480 amazing technological things now with 2437 01:28:21,270 --> 01:28:18,560 the modern phenomena the contact to easy 2438 01:28:23,270 --> 01:28:21,280 episode it's really fuzzy 2439 01:28:26,470 --> 01:28:23,280 like which parts of that are 2440 01:28:28,950 --> 01:28:26,480 psychical consciousness visionary or or 2441 01:28:31,030 --> 01:28:28,960 are physical it's really hazy really 2442 01:28:33,430 --> 01:28:31,040 hard to see that and i tend to step back 2443 01:28:35,910 --> 01:28:33,440 and say i really don't know which parts 2444 01:28:37,270 --> 01:28:35,920 of that are definitely physical so where 2445 01:28:39,110 --> 01:28:37,280 we've had an argument about nuts and 2446 01:28:41,110 --> 01:28:39,120 bolts versus woo-woo consciousness 2447 01:28:43,350 --> 01:28:41,120 nobody really knows where that line is 2448 01:28:45,910 --> 01:28:43,360 in that modern phenomena but i can say 2449 01:28:47,830 --> 01:28:45,920 well okay put that to one side let's at 2450 01:28:49,830 --> 01:28:47,840 least establish that some of this is 2451 01:28:51,510 --> 01:28:49,840 physical and that that's what this does 2452 01:28:54,629 --> 01:28:51,520 especially as you say there is some 2453 01:28:57,590 --> 01:28:54,639 physicality definitely to this and that 2454 01:29:00,229 --> 01:28:57,600 would infer probably some physicality 2455 01:29:02,070 --> 01:29:00,239 that continues to present somewhere 2456 01:29:04,709 --> 01:29:02,080 amongst that strangeness that we can't 2457 01:29:06,870 --> 01:29:04,719 tie down the jobs john keel kind of you 2458 01:29:08,149 --> 01:29:06,880 know conclusions that it's all you know 2459 01:29:10,149 --> 01:29:08,159 just 2460 01:29:12,070 --> 01:29:10,159 is it paraphysical the stuff that comes 2461 01:29:14,629 --> 01:29:12,080 into reality seems physical can meld 2462 01:29:17,189 --> 01:29:14,639 away that that seems to be going on too 2463 01:29:18,790 --> 01:29:17,199 but we can infer that if they are 2464 01:29:20,310 --> 01:29:18,800 physical enough to leave real debris 2465 01:29:22,390 --> 01:29:20,320 that you can pick up that there is a 2466 01:29:24,550 --> 01:29:22,400 physical element to at least some of 2467 01:29:26,229 --> 01:29:24,560 these non-human intelligences that seem 2468 01:29:28,470 --> 01:29:26,239 to be interacting with us maybe there's 2469 01:29:29,910 --> 01:29:28,480 others that are just pure energy and you 2470 01:29:31,350 --> 01:29:29,920 know you go into all that but we can't 2471 01:29:33,430 --> 01:29:31,360 establish that yet so let's start with 2472 01:29:35,669 --> 01:29:33,440 what we can establish 2473 01:29:37,110 --> 01:29:35,679 yeah and that of course that brings up 2474 01:29:39,350 --> 01:29:37,120 the really 2475 01:29:42,310 --> 01:29:39,360 level three kind of discussion about 2476 01:29:44,310 --> 01:29:42,320 consciousness extended consciousness uh 2477 01:29:46,550 --> 01:29:44,320 good and evil in the extended 2478 01:29:48,229 --> 01:29:46,560 consciousness whether there is a moral 2479 01:29:50,790 --> 01:29:48,239 imperative and we could even talk about 2480 01:29:52,870 --> 01:29:50,800 good and evil the the question i always 2481 01:29:56,310 --> 01:29:52,880 boil it down to is 2482 01:29:57,590 --> 01:29:56,320 what does et's nde look like 2483 01:29:59,189 --> 01:29:57,600 right 2484 01:30:01,910 --> 01:29:59,199 there's a near-death experience there's 2485 01:30:03,990 --> 01:30:01,920 a reality to that consciousness 2486 01:30:06,070 --> 01:30:04,000 from a physical standpoint should have 2487 01:30:07,830 --> 01:30:06,080 stopped your brain has stopped your 2488 01:30:09,990 --> 01:30:07,840 heart has stopped and yet we know that 2489 01:30:12,310 --> 01:30:10,000 consciousness is continuing where is 2490 01:30:13,910 --> 01:30:12,320 that consciousness going and then there 2491 01:30:15,430 --> 01:30:13,920 seems to be this other dimension that 2492 01:30:18,229 --> 01:30:15,440 it's going into 2493 01:30:20,709 --> 01:30:18,239 what's happening for e.t and 2494 01:30:21,510 --> 01:30:20,719 you know this is a a further inference 2495 01:30:23,990 --> 01:30:21,520 than 2496 01:30:25,189 --> 01:30:24,000 i think you would probably go or that a 2497 01:30:27,189 --> 01:30:25,199 lot of people would go with your 2498 01:30:29,750 --> 01:30:27,199 research but 2499 01:30:32,950 --> 01:30:29,760 what i would think would be one of the 2500 01:30:35,430 --> 01:30:32,960 the ways i would read it is that 2501 01:30:36,950 --> 01:30:35,440 et's nde isn't maybe that much different 2502 01:30:38,790 --> 01:30:36,960 from our nde 2503 01:30:39,910 --> 01:30:38,800 because it starts looking like a lot of 2504 01:30:41,910 --> 01:30:39,920 the same 2505 01:30:43,430 --> 01:30:41,920 stuff and particularly the you know we 2506 01:30:45,750 --> 01:30:43,440 didn't even talk about the bombardment 2507 01:30:48,229 --> 01:30:45,760 thing but particularly that damn it i 2508 01:30:50,149 --> 01:30:48,239 don't care blast them out of the sky hey 2509 01:30:52,229 --> 01:30:50,159 they blasted us out of the sky let's 2510 01:30:54,629 --> 01:30:52,239 come back and attack them i don't care 2511 01:30:56,990 --> 01:30:54,639 if we blow up that blow up the planet 2512 01:31:00,149 --> 01:30:57,000 that doesn't sound like 2513 01:31:02,390 --> 01:31:00,159 transcendent consciousness to me that 2514 01:31:04,550 --> 01:31:02,400 doesn't sound like god to me that sounds 2515 01:31:06,470 --> 01:31:04,560 like you know it god i'm putting just in 2516 01:31:08,550 --> 01:31:06,480 terms of how we would understand that 2517 01:31:11,510 --> 01:31:08,560 unity consciousness that we're all 2518 01:31:13,430 --> 01:31:11,520 somehow connected kind of thing 2519 01:31:15,270 --> 01:31:13,440 yeah i think he's saying if he said 2520 01:31:17,669 --> 01:31:15,280 no matter whether there may be 2521 01:31:19,750 --> 01:31:17,679 intelligences that are pure you know 2522 01:31:21,669 --> 01:31:19,760 love and light that there are also 2523 01:31:24,070 --> 01:31:21,679 others out there that are yeah more akin 2524 01:31:25,510 --> 01:31:24,080 to us than we might expect you know so 2525 01:31:28,310 --> 01:31:25,520 it doesn't preclude there aren't like 2526 01:31:30,149 --> 01:31:28,320 angelic perfect beings and you know 2527 01:31:31,910 --> 01:31:30,159 living life forms you know all of that 2528 01:31:33,910 --> 01:31:31,920 can also be true but that they are you 2529 01:31:37,430 --> 01:31:33,920 know maybe surprisingly to us but there 2530 01:31:39,030 --> 01:31:37,440 are other beings that are recognizable 2531 01:31:40,310 --> 01:31:39,040 to us in terms of we can imagine they 2532 01:31:43,189 --> 01:31:40,320 probably went through a similar 2533 01:31:45,430 --> 01:31:43,199 evolutionary path to us because some of 2534 01:31:47,990 --> 01:31:45,440 their behaviors and their choices are 2535 01:31:50,070 --> 01:31:48,000 recognizable to us and i think that 2536 01:31:51,990 --> 01:31:50,080 again gives us a sense of 2537 01:31:53,590 --> 01:31:52,000 perhaps a better sense of not being 2538 01:31:55,590 --> 01:31:53,600 alone than if we did find beings that 2539 01:31:57,110 --> 01:31:55,600 were so radically different like well 2540 01:31:58,470 --> 01:31:57,120 what do we even make of them you know 2541 01:31:59,910 --> 01:31:58,480 whereas we can say well at least some of 2542 01:32:01,910 --> 01:31:59,920 them there's some hope we might have a 2543 01:32:04,310 --> 01:32:01,920 connection where we could understand 2544 01:32:05,910 --> 01:32:04,320 each other because they seem to do 2545 01:32:07,990 --> 01:32:05,920 things a bit like us and they're not 2546 01:32:10,790 --> 01:32:08,000 perfect they're not you know infallible 2547 01:32:12,790 --> 01:32:10,800 gods who you know never make a mistake 2548 01:32:14,390 --> 01:32:12,800 or you know can never you know have a 2549 01:32:16,550 --> 01:32:14,400 technology or wrong that they they 2550 01:32:17,830 --> 01:32:16,560 actually are recognized in that way too 2551 01:32:18,870 --> 01:32:17,840 and i think yeah that's really important 2552 01:32:20,470 --> 01:32:18,880 because there probably are beings that 2553 01:32:21,669 --> 01:32:20,480 we just we wouldn't know where to start 2554 01:32:23,590 --> 01:32:21,679 with their consciousness you know in 2555 01:32:25,750 --> 01:32:23,600 their thinking and 2556 01:32:27,270 --> 01:32:25,760 would be like talking to a brick you 2557 01:32:28,709 --> 01:32:27,280 know in terms of our chances of ever 2558 01:32:30,709 --> 01:32:28,719 connecting with them right because it's 2559 01:32:32,470 --> 01:32:30,719 so different the consciousness types are 2560 01:32:33,830 --> 01:32:32,480 so different that we would have no real 2561 01:32:35,590 --> 01:32:33,840 hope we could only recognize maybe that 2562 01:32:38,070 --> 01:32:35,600 there's other life but other life is 2563 01:32:39,510 --> 01:32:38,080 shut off from us because it's so strange 2564 01:32:41,189 --> 01:32:39,520 so i think this gives us a hopeful 2565 01:32:42,870 --> 01:32:41,199 feeling as well that maybe we can really 2566 01:32:43,669 --> 01:32:42,880 connect with other charities and out 2567 01:32:49,030 --> 01:32:43,679 there 2568 01:32:51,270 --> 01:32:49,040 of them in us with the genetics 2569 01:32:53,910 --> 01:32:51,280 bruce finally what do you think about 2570 01:32:56,310 --> 01:32:53,920 the current state of this uh 2571 01:32:58,310 --> 01:32:56,320 conversation it's at a totally different 2572 01:32:59,510 --> 01:32:58,320 point than we've ever seen in our 2573 01:33:00,709 --> 01:32:59,520 lifetime 2574 01:33:02,629 --> 01:33:00,719 it's 2575 01:33:05,270 --> 01:33:02,639 you know what do you think about lou 2576 01:33:06,550 --> 01:33:05,280 elizondo you know disclosure comes 2577 01:33:09,030 --> 01:33:06,560 through 2578 01:33:12,149 --> 01:33:09,040 an intelligence officer oh from the 2579 01:33:14,310 --> 01:33:12,159 pentagon oh what a surprise 2580 01:33:15,510 --> 01:33:14,320 how do you advise that story what do you 2581 01:33:17,110 --> 01:33:15,520 think about 2582 01:33:18,229 --> 01:33:17,120 disclosure we do seem to be going 2583 01:33:19,350 --> 01:33:18,239 through it no matter what you think 2584 01:33:20,870 --> 01:33:19,360 about it 2585 01:33:24,470 --> 01:33:20,880 we're certainly going through yes some 2586 01:33:26,229 --> 01:33:24,480 kind of narrative shift now 2587 01:33:28,550 --> 01:33:26,239 is it something disclosed or is it a 2588 01:33:30,550 --> 01:33:28,560 story being woven for us 2589 01:33:32,550 --> 01:33:30,560 in which case it wouldn't really be a 2590 01:33:33,990 --> 01:33:32,560 disclosure because again disclosure 2591 01:33:37,189 --> 01:33:34,000 infers that this is that we're being 2592 01:33:39,110 --> 01:33:37,199 shown factual hidden things right now i 2593 01:33:41,590 --> 01:33:39,120 think it's gonna be very difficult for 2594 01:33:45,270 --> 01:33:41,600 us to ever confirm that we are being 2595 01:33:47,669 --> 01:33:45,280 shown factual hidden things versus being 2596 01:33:49,189 --> 01:33:47,679 given a story that is preferred by 2597 01:33:50,790 --> 01:33:49,199 certain people now whether that's 2598 01:33:53,030 --> 01:33:50,800 individuals or the intelligence 2599 01:33:54,950 --> 01:33:53,040 community or the government you know 2600 01:33:56,390 --> 01:33:54,960 how do we really know now the only thing 2601 01:33:58,310 --> 01:33:56,400 you can really establish that is if 2602 01:33:59,189 --> 01:33:58,320 someone was to really say i don't wheel 2603 01:34:01,270 --> 01:33:59,199 out 2604 01:34:03,110 --> 01:34:01,280 a craft and aliens we could at least get 2605 01:34:05,510 --> 01:34:03,120 to probably say well there's definitely 2606 01:34:07,990 --> 01:34:05,520 a hidden you know there's an alien craft 2607 01:34:10,310 --> 01:34:08,000 they had one that's a disclosure but if 2608 01:34:12,070 --> 01:34:10,320 what we get is just information 2609 01:34:14,229 --> 01:34:12,080 i think that's really problematic 2610 01:34:15,990 --> 01:34:14,239 because we have no way to independently 2611 01:34:17,990 --> 01:34:16,000 validate this isn't just a story being 2612 01:34:19,430 --> 01:34:18,000 moving for us and there's a really 2613 01:34:20,950 --> 01:34:19,440 interesting article by a guy called 2614 01:34:21,669 --> 01:34:20,960 alexander wendt i don't know if you know 2615 01:34:23,350 --> 01:34:21,679 but 2616 01:34:25,270 --> 01:34:23,360 he writes about how 2617 01:34:27,270 --> 01:34:25,280 really the control system can never 2618 01:34:29,669 --> 01:34:27,280 reveal aliens to us because it's a 2619 01:34:33,189 --> 01:34:29,679 direct threat to them because you're now 2620 01:34:35,110 --> 01:34:33,199 putting a higher order above the top of 2621 01:34:36,950 --> 01:34:35,120 the pyramid you know because instead of 2622 01:34:38,870 --> 01:34:36,960 people looking to the apex as the 2623 01:34:41,350 --> 01:34:38,880 political elite everyone's going to ask 2624 01:34:43,750 --> 01:34:41,360 but what do their levels you know these 2625 01:34:45,590 --> 01:34:43,760 civilizational type free type beings 2626 01:34:47,830 --> 01:34:45,600 think who really are in control of our 2627 01:34:49,510 --> 01:34:47,840 solar system who cares what the 2628 01:34:52,310 --> 01:34:49,520 president of america says he's 2629 01:34:54,149 --> 01:34:52,320 irrelevant now right well that's gonna 2630 01:34:57,510 --> 01:34:54,159 be a big problem for a system that is 2631 01:35:00,310 --> 01:34:57,520 built on that control system you know 2632 01:35:03,350 --> 01:35:00,320 yeah i i dr alexander wendt has been on 2633 01:35:04,390 --> 01:35:03,360 the show at least once but the counter 2634 01:35:07,669 --> 01:35:04,400 to that 2635 01:35:10,149 --> 01:35:07,679 is what we've lived through with the 2636 01:35:12,310 --> 01:35:10,159 recent elections and with the great 2637 01:35:14,310 --> 01:35:12,320 reset is that 2638 01:35:16,709 --> 01:35:14,320 i think all that stuff is kind of 2639 01:35:18,870 --> 01:35:16,719 irrelevant or being managed on a whole 2640 01:35:21,830 --> 01:35:18,880 different level that we don't totally 2641 01:35:24,629 --> 01:35:21,840 appreciate and i also think 2642 01:35:26,550 --> 01:35:24,639 the disclosure and particularly the new 2643 01:35:28,629 --> 01:35:26,560 york times disclosure and again i 2644 01:35:30,470 --> 01:35:28,639 interviewed both leslie kane and ralph 2645 01:35:32,950 --> 01:35:30,480 blumenthal from the new york times who 2646 01:35:35,109 --> 01:35:32,960 have the byline on that story number one 2647 01:35:36,950 --> 01:35:35,119 it seemed like to anyone is paying 2648 01:35:39,189 --> 01:35:36,960 attention a political psyop from the 2649 01:35:40,950 --> 01:35:39,199 beginning again this lu elizondo 2650 01:35:43,109 --> 01:35:40,960 character you know why is an 2651 01:35:45,109 --> 01:35:43,119 intelligence officer the one 2652 01:35:48,070 --> 01:35:45,119 leaking that would be the first question 2653 01:35:49,510 --> 01:35:48,080 but number two it didn't do 2654 01:35:52,790 --> 01:35:49,520 what it was 2655 01:35:56,149 --> 01:35:52,800 supposed to do so they're constantly 2656 01:35:58,390 --> 01:35:56,159 shaping the the social narrative and the 2657 01:36:00,790 --> 01:35:58,400 mind control experiment but that doesn't 2658 01:36:02,629 --> 01:36:00,800 mean that they're in control of it 2659 01:36:05,270 --> 01:36:02,639 my best read of it is 2660 01:36:07,189 --> 01:36:05,280 they didn't know that it would go the 2661 01:36:09,590 --> 01:36:07,199 way that it has in their attempt to 2662 01:36:11,350 --> 01:36:09,600 disclose so they're constantly tweaking 2663 01:36:13,350 --> 01:36:11,360 it and isn't that our history of what 2664 01:36:15,750 --> 01:36:13,360 we've seen in terms of propaganda and 2665 01:36:17,830 --> 01:36:15,760 misinformation i mean it's always a 2666 01:36:19,350 --> 01:36:17,840 moving target it's an evolving well 2667 01:36:21,430 --> 01:36:19,360 let's see what that does and then it's a 2668 01:36:24,149 --> 01:36:21,440 chess game it's like okay well from that 2669 01:36:26,149 --> 01:36:24,159 position they did this so now i'll do 2670 01:36:27,270 --> 01:36:26,159 that 2671 01:36:28,870 --> 01:36:27,280 yeah i mean i think particularly you 2672 01:36:30,629 --> 01:36:28,880 know say stephen greenstreet and the new 2673 01:36:32,550 --> 01:36:30,639 york post who's done some really good 2674 01:36:34,070 --> 01:36:32,560 investigative research into this showing 2675 01:36:36,390 --> 01:36:34,080 that yeah a lot of the stuff to be said 2676 01:36:38,310 --> 01:36:36,400 has changed it's an evolving narrative 2677 01:36:40,149 --> 01:36:38,320 when you're being told an absolute 2678 01:36:42,870 --> 01:36:40,159 revelation of truth 2679 01:36:45,030 --> 01:36:42,880 expands it doesn't change right and what 2680 01:36:46,709 --> 01:36:45,040 we're seeing is changing shifting sounds 2681 01:36:49,109 --> 01:36:46,719 in the narrative so that is should be a 2682 01:36:52,950 --> 01:36:49,119 red flag to people and of course i'd say 2683 01:36:54,790 --> 01:36:52,960 the majority of old hands in ufology 2684 01:36:55,990 --> 01:36:54,800 have tended towards skepticism of this 2685 01:36:57,990 --> 01:36:56,000 that they see a problem because they 2686 01:36:59,669 --> 01:36:58,000 still remember the days where this is a 2687 01:37:02,149 --> 01:36:59,679 lot of disinfo and a lot of military 2688 01:37:03,430 --> 01:37:02,159 control going into the ufo world whereas 2689 01:37:06,550 --> 01:37:03,440 many of the people who've come in in 2690 01:37:09,030 --> 01:37:06,560 2017 onwards who've become die hard 2691 01:37:10,950 --> 01:37:09,040 ufo activists 2692 01:37:11,990 --> 01:37:10,960 who are activists for disclosure and 2693 01:37:13,510 --> 01:37:12,000 it's all about the government and the 2694 01:37:14,870 --> 01:37:13,520 military and we need to let these people 2695 01:37:17,189 --> 01:37:14,880 who know all the stuff and what they're 2696 01:37:19,750 --> 01:37:17,199 doing take over the narrative 2697 01:37:21,510 --> 01:37:19,760 you know really are just so green 2698 01:37:24,229 --> 01:37:21,520 so green 2699 01:37:26,070 --> 01:37:24,239 it's it's unfortunate they seem to have 2700 01:37:28,470 --> 01:37:26,080 got the big traction on this and the 2701 01:37:30,550 --> 01:37:28,480 other people who do know better who 2702 01:37:33,109 --> 01:37:30,560 spent decades in this are being 2703 01:37:35,430 --> 01:37:33,119 sidelined because of course the media 2704 01:37:37,510 --> 01:37:35,440 and the intelligent community are loving 2705 01:37:39,189 --> 01:37:37,520 these people loving them because they're 2706 01:37:40,550 --> 01:37:39,199 also enabling this idea that the 2707 01:37:42,310 --> 01:37:40,560 government is giving the people what 2708 01:37:44,470 --> 01:37:42,320 they want so first you need some people 2709 01:37:45,990 --> 01:37:44,480 to say we want this so you engineer a 2710 01:37:47,510 --> 01:37:46,000 group of people who then call on the 2711 01:37:49,189 --> 01:37:47,520 government to do it and it looks like 2712 01:37:50,550 --> 01:37:49,199 you're responding to the people instead 2713 01:37:51,750 --> 01:37:50,560 of just bringing out the story you're 2714 01:37:53,910 --> 01:37:51,760 going to bring out in the first place 2715 01:37:57,669 --> 01:37:53,920 that nobody would have believed without 2716 01:37:59,830 --> 01:37:57,679 a call for it from ground level so 2717 01:38:02,390 --> 01:37:59,840 it's it's amazing really to sort of see 2718 01:38:03,510 --> 01:38:02,400 it working so you know exactly how you'd 2719 01:38:05,189 --> 01:38:03,520 expect them to want it to work and 2720 01:38:07,510 --> 01:38:05,199 that's what's happening so that should 2721 01:38:09,350 --> 01:38:07,520 again be another big red flag and that 2722 01:38:12,070 --> 01:38:09,360 certainly what a few hundred or a few 2723 01:38:14,550 --> 01:38:12,080 thousand activists calling on senators 2724 01:38:17,189 --> 01:38:14,560 makes changes how many people asked not 2725 01:38:19,430 --> 01:38:17,199 to have jabs or not to have digital 2726 01:38:21,270 --> 01:38:19,440 passports and we're totally railroaded 2727 01:38:23,030 --> 01:38:21,280 millions of people but we're supposed to 2728 01:38:24,310 --> 01:38:23,040 believe a few thousand ufo activists 2729 01:38:28,149 --> 01:38:24,320 have managed to get congress to do all 2730 01:38:31,830 --> 01:38:28,159 this stuff i'm sorry i'm not buying it 2731 01:38:34,790 --> 01:38:31,840 richard dodie strawberry ice cream 2732 01:38:37,750 --> 01:38:34,800 should i tell anyone to just google 2733 01:38:40,470 --> 01:38:37,760 richard dodie strawberry ice cream 2734 01:38:43,510 --> 01:38:40,480 go from there bruce it's been just 2735 01:38:45,510 --> 01:38:43,520 fantastic then i loved it 2736 01:38:47,830 --> 01:38:45,520 i love talking about this stuff with you 2737 01:38:50,550 --> 01:38:47,840 you are the best the best of the best 2738 01:38:53,790 --> 01:38:50,560 this latest book exogenesis hybrid 2739

incomparable 2742 01:39:06,149 --> 01:39:02,960 danny there's also the forgotten exodus 2743 01:39:07,350 --> 01:39:06,159 the into africa theory of human 2744 01:39:08,950 --> 01:39:07,360 evolution 2745 01:39:12,229 --> 01:39:08,960 hybrid humans 2746 01:39:14,709 --> 01:39:12,239 scientific evidence of our 800 000 year 2747 01:39:16,550 --> 01:39:14,719 old alien legacy 2748 01:39:20,070 --> 01:39:16,560 and then you can go watch 2749 01:39:22,390 --> 01:39:20,080 780 000 our alien origin story 2750 01:39:24,470 --> 01:39:22,400 what's what's next what are you working 2751 01:39:27,350 --> 01:39:24,480 on what do we should we expect to see 2752 01:39:28,149 --> 01:39:27,360 from you yeah i mean i should within the 2753 01:39:33,430 --> 01:39:28,159 next 2754 01:39:35,590 --> 01:39:33,440 the final edit done on the tech type 2755 01:39:38,149 --> 01:39:35,600 paper and obviously arguing that this is 2756 01:39:40,790 --> 01:39:38,159 an interesting object but also um that 2757 01:39:42,070 --> 01:39:40,800 it's most likely a techno signature we 2758 01:39:44,149 --> 01:39:42,080 should make it the first ever alien 2759 01:39:46,550 --> 01:39:44,159 techno signature and i mean get that up 2760 01:39:48,550 --> 01:39:46,560 onto pre-print servers so they'll be 2761 01:39:51,189 --> 01:39:48,560 accessible to everybody you know to the 2762 01:39:52,950 --> 01:39:51,199 public um to any scientists or 2763 01:39:54,950 --> 01:39:52,960 journalists that might be interested 2764 01:39:56,870 --> 01:39:54,960 most likely to be you know alternative 2765 01:39:58,629 --> 01:39:56,880 media i imagine probably not mainstream 2766 01:39:59,910 --> 01:39:58,639 media but anyone that is interested in 2767 01:40:01,510 --> 01:39:59,920 that it'd be available i think it's 2768 01:40:04,070 --> 01:40:01,520 important those people can check and see 2769 01:40:05,910 --> 01:40:04,080 that you know i i'm providing all the 2770 01:40:07,830 --> 01:40:05,920 sources for this and as i say it's all 2771 01:40:10,550 --> 01:40:07,840 from academics and nasa and all these 2772 01:40:12,709 --> 01:40:10,560 people who you know have a more trusted 2773 01:40:15,109 --> 01:40:12,719 authority in these areas you know for 2774 01:40:17,510 --> 01:40:15,119 most people and so that will be up i 2775 01:40:19,030 --> 01:40:17,520 hope you know very imminently so i hope 2776 01:40:21,030 --> 01:40:19,040 you will watch that space and with a bit 2777 01:40:22,470 --> 01:40:21,040 of luck at least the alternative or 2778 01:40:23,430 --> 01:40:22,480 independent media 2779 01:40:25,590 --> 01:40:23,440 um 2780 01:40:28,390 --> 01:40:25,600 may get excited about that let's hope so 2781 01:40:30,870 --> 01:40:28,400 um and we won't expect fox and cnn props 2782 01:40:31,910 --> 01:40:30,880 to jump right onto it but you know if 2783 01:40:33,510 --> 01:40:31,920 some of these bigger you know 2784 01:40:35,109 --> 01:40:33,520 independent platforms cover it that'd be 2785 01:40:37,109 --> 01:40:35,119 great i'd be quite very very happy with 2786 01:40:39,109 --> 01:40:37,119 that and if some scientists engage with 2787 01:40:40,709 --> 01:40:39,119 it and start responding and saying well 2788 01:40:41,910 --> 01:40:40,719 i said what's wrong with it if you don't 2789 01:40:43,990 --> 01:40:41,920 agree 2790 01:40:46,790 --> 01:40:44,000 explain it also explain why it's take 2791 01:40:47,750 --> 01:40:46,800 200 years to resolve this tech-type 2792 01:40:49,669 --> 01:40:47,760 topic 2793 01:40:50,550 --> 01:40:49,679 unless you've got something radically 2794 01:40:52,390 --> 01:40:50,560 wrong 2795 01:40:53,910 --> 01:40:52,400 that's a long time 200 2796 01:40:56,229 --> 01:40:53,920 they've had the ball for 200 years 2797
