River in upstate New York when 11 00:00:47,829 --> 00:00:44,180 I was 12 years old it was what we would 12 00:00:50,049 --> 00:00:47,839 classify as a triangular UFO it hovered 13 00:00:52,149 --> 00:00:50,059 silently over my head and then headed 14 00:00:55,329 --> 00:00:52,159 north to the Canadian border 15 00:00:58,180 --> 00:00:55,339 this sighting terrified me and that 16 00:01:01,330

00:03:05,500 --> 00:02:32,270 clip with you from a favorite film of 53 00:03:12,520 --> 00:03:08,630 you've got to get mad you've gotta say 54 00:03:15,680 --> 00:03:12,530 I'm a human being god damn it 55 00:03:18,860 --> 00:03:15,690 that was the voice of Peter Finch from 56 00:03:19,340 --> 00:03:18,870 the 1976 film Network where his 57 00:03:21,890 --> 00:03:19,350 character 58 00:03:24,680 --> 00:03:21,900 news anchor Howard Beale proclaims the 59 00:03:28,520 --> 00:03:24,690 control and the decay of the mainstream 60 00:03:31,580 --> 00:03:28,530 news meant to be satire the film rings 61 00:03:35,360 --> 00:03:31,590 nearly true now more than ever as 62 00:03:38,360 --> 00:03:35,370 24-hour news cycles bombard our eyes and 63 00:03:41,150 --> 00:03:38,370 ears with biased ideologies and 64 00:03:44,630 --> 00:03:41,160 corporate corruption there seems to be 65 00:03:47,270 --> 00:03:44,640 no end in sight but how does this deeply 66 00:03:50,569 --> 00:03:47,280 troubling issue connect with the UFO 67 00:03:53,690 --> 00:03:50,579 topic how has the perception of this 68 00:03:56,420 --> 00:03:53,700 elusive mystery changed and ultimately 69 00:03:59,330 --> 00:03:56,430 influenced our opinions and beliefs on 70 00:04:01,940 --> 00:03:59,340 it and where may we be headed as a 71 00:04:04,880 --> 00:04:01,950 society as the media bias and power 72 00:04:08,060 --> 00:04:04,890 structures wage a war for our hearts 73 00:04:11,150 --> 00:04:08,070 minds and our money my guest today is 74 00:04:13,910 --> 00:04:11,160 noted author and historian Richard Dolan 75 00:04:16,580 --> 00:04:13,920 Dolan is best known for his two volumes 76 00:04:19,099 --> 00:04:16,590 of history UFOs and the national 77 00:04:20,870 --> 00:04:19,109 security state both groundbreaking works 78 00:04:23,029 --> 00:04:20,880 which together provide the most 79 00:04:25,550 --> 00:04:23,039 factually complete and accessible 80 00:04:28,040 --> 00:04:25,560 narrative on the UFO subject he also 81 00:04:30,950 --> 00:04:28,050 co-authored a speculative book about the 82 00:04:33,620 --> 00:04:30,960 future ad after disclosure the 83 00:04:35,540 --> 00:04:33,630 first-ever analysis not only of how UFO 84 00:04:38,750 --> 00:04:35,550 secrecy might end but of the 85 00:04:41,690 --> 00:04:38,760 all-important question what happens next 86 00:04:44,089 --> 00:04:41,700 his most recent book UFOs for the 21st 87 00:04:46,760 --> 00:04:44,099 century mind provides a fresh treatment 88 00:04:47,990 --> 00:04:46,770 of the entire subject it asks fresh 89 00:04:49,640 --> 00:04:48,000 questions and off 90 00:04:52,550 --> 00:04:49,650 new insights to further our 91 00:04:55,130 --> 00:04:52,560 understanding of the UFO mystery so 92 00:04:58,640 --> 00:04:55,140 without further ado let's get to our 93 00:05:01,520 --> 00:04:58,650 interview with Richard Dolan guys I'm 94 00:05:04,040 --> 00:05:01,530 super excited and honored to have as my 95 00:05:07,010 --> 00:05:04,050 first guest on the podcast author and 96 00:05:09,680 --> 00:05:07,020 historian Richard Dolan I thought it 97 00:05:11,690 --> 00:05:09,690 appropriate he published my book to have 98 00:05:14,060 --> 00:05:11,700 him on the actual podcast based around 99 00:05:15,110 --> 00:05:14,070 that so rich thank you so much for 100 00:05:17,930 --> 00:05:15,120 joining me today man 101 00:05:20,300 --> 00:05:17,940 hi Ryan oh it's so I'm so happy to be 102 00:05:21,530 --> 00:05:20,310 your guest and I didn't realize I was 103 00:05:23,420 --> 00:05:21,540 going to be your first guest so that's 104 00:05:25,070 --> 00:05:23,430 even that's even nicer for me but it's a 105 00:05:27,800 --> 00:05:25,080 it's an honor and I'm happy to be here 106 00:05:29,960 --> 00:05:27,810 with you well thanks man so well the 107 00:05:31,460 --> 00:05:29,970 real reason I wanted to have you on as 108 00:05:34,990 --> 00:05:31,470 the first guest to talk to you today was 109 00:05:37,550 --> 00:05:35,000 because recently I attended a a 110 00:05:40,370 --> 00:05:37,560 presentation you gave and I don't really 111 00:05:42,440 --> 00:05:40,380 want to discuss the UFO reality or 112 00:05:45,409 --> 00:05:42,450 equestrian I think we're past that at 113 00:05:47,780 --> 00:05:45,419 this point in some ways but to really 114 00:05:49,730 --> 00:05:47,790 kind of get a sense of the perception of 115 00:05:54,170 --> 00:05:49,740 the topic from the mainstream media 116 00:05:58,070 --> 00:05:54,180 and you recently had a talk called media 117 00:06:00,080 --> 00:05:58,080 bias in UFO coverage culture policy or 118 00:06:02,080 --> 00:06:00,090 something else you sort of run us 119 00:06:06,140 --> 00:06:02,090 through that talk and what it entailed 120 00:06:07,820 --> 00:06:06,150 absolutely you know I was inspired to do 121 00:06:10,730 --> 00:06:07,830 this first of all I've always been 122 00:06:13,850 --> 00:06:10,740 interested in the relationship of media 123 00:06:15,170 --> 00:06:13,860 mainstream media to the UFO subject I'm 124 00:06:18,860 --> 00:06:15,180 interested in mainstream media in 125 00:06:21,320 --> 00:06:18,870 general years ago when I broke into this 126 00:06:23,390 --> 00:06:21,330 field my first book was published at 127 00:06:25,250 --> 00:06:23,400 around the same time as another book of 128 00:06:25,700 --> 00:06:25,260 by man who became a very good friend of 129 00:06:28,060 --> 00:06:25,710 mine 130 00:06:30,980 --> 00:06:28,070 Terry Hansen who has since deceased 131 00:06:33,230 --> 00:06:30,990 Terry wrote a very excellent book of 132 00:06:37,010 --> 00:06:33,240 classic I would say called the missing 133 00:06:39,409 --> 00:06:37,020 times subtitled media complicity in the 134 00:06:41,330 --> 00:06:39,419 UFO cover-up our books were sort of like 135 00:06:42,710 --> 00:06:41,340 bookends with each other I wrote UFOs in 136 00:06:44,330 --> 00:06:42,720 the national security state he wrote 137 00:06:45,590 --> 00:06:44,340 that I was dealing with the political 138 00:06:47,570 --> 00:06:45,600 aspects of the cover-up and he was 139 00:06:49,550 --> 00:06:47,580 dealing with the media aspects of the 140 00:06:53,600 --> 00:06:49,560 cover-up we had a very similar approach 141 00:06:57,200 --> 00:06:53,610 and we became friends and Terry didn't 142 00:06:59,120 --> 00:06:57,210 write any other books in this field but 143 00:07:00,740 --> 00:06:59,130 he did he did some lectures and 144 00:07:01,839 --> 00:07:00,750 presentations and we always stayed in 145 00:07:05,320 --> 00:07:01,849 touch until he died 146 00:07:07,149 --> 00:07:05,330 and I miss him he's an old friend of 147 00:07:08,980 --> 00:07:07,159 mine and I realized you know his work 148 00:07:11,919 --> 00:07:08,990 and my work are so compatible and there 149 00:07:15,219 --> 00:07:11,929 really was no one to my knowledge doing 150 00:07:16,600 --> 00:07:15,229 detailed media analysis of the UFO 151 00:07:20,169 --> 00:07:16,610 subject I thought I would like to do 152 00:07:21,510 --> 00:07:20,179 what do one for the the Phoenix 153 00:07:24,549 --> 00:07:21,520 conference the International UFO 154 00:07:28,389 --> 00:07:24,559 Congress that we did and so that's why I 155 00:07:30,579 --> 00:07:28,399 did it when you look at media and I 156 00:07:32,139 --> 00:07:30,589 really wanted to bring his that whole 157 00:07:34,980 --> 00:07:32,149 approach up-to-date incidentally and 158 00:07:36,969 --> 00:07:34,990 that's what I tried to do with this a 159 00:07:40,119 --> 00:07:36,979 couple of things that you notice about 160 00:07:43,149 --> 00:07:40,129 mainstream media before we even get into 161 00:07:45,399 --> 00:07:43,159 UFOs is it's interesting because we went 162 00:07:48,100 --> 00:07:45,409 through the whole election of 20 in 2016 163 00:07:50,799 --> 00:07:48,110 and now in 2017 and media itself is a 164 00:07:55,119 --> 00:07:50,809 story we hear everyone talking about 165 00:07:56,739 --> 00:07:55,129 so-called fake news and and you know 166 00:08:00,459 --> 00:07:56,749 there's lots of ways to look at this 167 00:08:02,350 --> 00:08:00,469 fake news phenomenon my perspective on 168 00:08:05,259 --> 00:08:02,360 it is that the corporate mainstream 169 00:08:08,799 --> 00:08:05,269 media itself is the primary conveyor and 170 00:08:10,600 --> 00:08:08,809 purveyor of fake news and I say this not 171 00:08:13,239 --> 00:08:10,610 siding with any one particular political 172 00:08:18,519 --> 00:08:13,249 party here but I have been looking at 173 00:08:22,199 --> 00:08:18,529 CNN and MSNBC and Fox and PBS and really 174 00:08:25,359 --> 00:08:22,209 all of these large corporate dominated 175 00:08:29,019 --> 00:08:25,369 intelligence community dominated sources 176 00:08:30,730 --> 00:08:29,029 of news as purveyors of fake news and I 177 00:08:32,259 --> 00:08:30,740 don't think that I'm simply speaking 178 00:08:33,759 --> 00:08:32,269 hyperbole I think that there's a lot of 179 00:08:36,370 --> 00:08:33,769 facts to back this up and I tried to 180 00:08:39,519 --> 00:08:36,380 present some of those during my talk one 181 00:08:41,620 --> 00:08:39,529 of the things that was important for me 182 00:08:43,209 --> 00:08:41,630 is just to mention the people that not 183 00:08:45,280 --> 00:08:43,219 only is a mainstream media not your 184 00:08:47,920 --> 00:08:45,290 friend or my friend I mean it lies it 185 00:08:50,559 --> 00:08:47,930 spins it censors it's owned by just a 186 00:08:52,749 --> 00:08:50,569 few very powerful corporations it is 187 00:08:54,730 --> 00:08:52,759 merged with the popular culture 188 00:08:56,319 --> 00:08:54,740 entertainment industry it cooperates 189 00:08:59,610 --> 00:08:56,329 with the intelligence community all of 190 00:09:01,840 --> 00:08:59,620 this is known people often don't 191 00:09:03,429 --> 00:09:01,850 recognize this I don't pay attention I 192 00:09:05,559 --> 00:09:03,439 don't know their history but the 193 00:09:07,710 --> 00:09:05,569 mainstream media has cooperated with us 194 00:09:10,960 --> 00:09:07,720 intelligence for decades and generations 195 00:09:12,639 --> 00:09:10,970 still does but it also makes us sick and 196 00:09:14,679 --> 00:09:12,649 I mean physically it makes us sick it 197 00:09:16,119 --> 00:09:14,689 and intellectually emotionally it makes 198 00:09:18,280 --> 00:09:16,129 us sick 199 00:09:19,600 --> 00:09:18,290 and this is not just me saying it I mean 200 00:09:22,749 --> 00:09:19,610 there were mainstream articles 201 00:09:24,910 --> 00:09:22,759 themselves saying that the selection is 202 00:09:26,590 --> 00:09:24,920 making us sick literally making us sick 203 00:09:29,980 --> 00:09:26,600 I have a BuzzFeed article I remembered 204 00:09:31,600 --> 00:09:29,990 reading and articles in The Guardian and 205 00:09:32,230 --> 00:09:31,610 elsewhere to talk about how news is bad 206 00:09:37,650 --> 00:09:32,240 for you 207 00:09:42,069 --> 00:09:37,660 thought to myself why would it be that 208 00:09:43,559 --> 00:09:42,079 being an informed person is bad for you 209 00:09:46,420 --> 00:09:43,569 mm-hmm 210 00:09:48,009 --> 00:09:46,430 and of course it's not bad for you or 211 00:09:50,769 --> 00:09:48,019 for me or for listeners to be informed 212 00:09:52,449 --> 00:09:50,779 it's not bad at all I just because 213 00:09:55,749 --> 00:09:52,459 there's an article that says make you 214 00:09:58,239 --> 00:09:55,759 know news is making me sick so what I 215 00:10:01,179 --> 00:09:58,249 would I realize is that it's how our 216 00:10:04,600 --> 00:10:01,189 mainstream corporate media delivers news 217 00:10:06,519 --> 00:10:04,610 how it packages news how it gives the 218 00:10:09,210 --> 00:10:06,529 news to us that is actually unhealthy 219 00:10:11,530 --> 00:10:09,220 for us and of course it is because all 220 00:10:13,389 --> 00:10:11,540 any intelligent person has to do when 221 00:10:18,489 --> 00:10:13,399 looking at the news is realize how 222 00:10:20,530 --> 00:10:18,499 trivial it is how sensational it is how 223 00:10:22,540 --> 00:10:20,540 it focuses on one bad thing after 224 00:10:24,759 --> 00:10:22,550 another bad thing without context 225 00:10:26,319 --> 00:10:24,769 without understanding there have been 226 00:10:28,929 --> 00:10:26,329 study after study that have shown that 227 00:10:31,509 --> 00:10:28,939 the more television news a person 228 00:10:32,920 --> 00:10:31,519 watches the less likely they are to be 229 00:10:35,129 --> 00:10:32,930 informed about key issues in the world 230 00:10:37,629 --> 00:10:35,139 the less is it an inverse relationship 231 00:10:39,220 --> 00:10:37,639 so that's right this is the first time I 232 00:10:41,379 --> 00:10:39,230 learned this was over a quarter of a 233 00:10:43,840 --> 00:10:41,389 century ago during the first the Persian 234 00:10:45,090 --> 00:10:43,850 Gulf War and there was a study study I 235 00:10:48,519 --> 00:10:45,100 believe it was done out of the 236 00:10:51,249 --> 00:10:48,529 University of Colorado I'm pretty sure 237 00:10:52,840 --> 00:10:51,259 that came to that conclusion I said the 238 00:10:55,299 --> 00:10:52,850 more CNN you watched and it was 239 00:10:57,189 --> 00:10:55,309 explicitly CNN the less likely you were 240 00:10:59,139 --> 00:10:57,199 to know where for example Syria was on a 241 00:11:02,619 --> 00:10:59,149 map okay like basic things about the 242 00:11:04,119 --> 00:11:02,629 Middle East so so there's that and back 243 00:11:06,069 --> 00:11:04,129 then they said this is a great failure 244 00:11:07,179 --> 00:11:06,079 of our journalistic profession I'm 245 00:11:09,579 --> 00:11:07,189 thinking no actually it's a great 246 00:11:11,980 --> 00:11:09,589 success the whole point see of TV news 247 00:11:14,100 --> 00:11:11,990 and a television in general is to sell 248 00:11:18,189 --> 00:11:14,110 you the viewer to the advertiser and 249 00:11:19,299 --> 00:11:18,199 that that is the sole point anything 250 00:11:22,480 --> 00:11:19,309 else is just gravy 251 00:11:24,369 --> 00:11:22,490 so they'll lure you in by letting you 252 00:11:25,389 --> 00:11:24,379 think you are being informed because 253 00:11:27,100 --> 00:11:25,399 people will do want to think they're 254 00:11:28,689 --> 00:11:27,110 being informed they lure you in by 255 00:11:29,470 --> 00:11:28,699 entertainment which of course they do 256 00:11:32,350 --> 00:11:29,480 much more than 257 00:11:35,050 --> 00:11:32,360 information and toward that end they 258 00:11:36,639 --> 00:11:35,060 sell you to the advertisers and once we 259 00:11:39,069 --> 00:11:36,649 realize that's the point of TV I think 260 00:11:41,079 --> 00:11:39,079 it's a little easier understand so I I 261 00:11:42,430 --> 00:11:41,089 would start by saying the mainstream 262 00:11:44,470 --> 00:11:42,440 makes us sick but I think mainstream 263 00:11:46,629 --> 00:11:44,480 media also makes society's sick 264 00:11:52,150 --> 00:11:46,639 I think it destabilizes an entire 265 00:11:53,019 --> 00:11:52,160 societies if we really look at the one 266 00:11:54,879 --> 00:11:53,029 of the things that I'm very interested 267 00:11:57,129 --> 00:11:54,889 in these days is a phenomenon of color 268 00:11:58,750 --> 00:11:57,139 revolution that is constructed 269 00:12:00,250 --> 00:11:58,760 revolution by intelligence communities 270 00:12:03,069 --> 00:12:00,260 in conjunction with with the corporate 271 00:12:04,420 --> 00:12:03,079 media to destabilize entire societies 272 00:12:06,850 --> 00:12:04,430 we've seen this going on currently in 273 00:12:09,129 --> 00:12:06,860 Venezuela we've seen it a year or two 274 00:12:12,069 --> 00:12:09,139 ago in Brazil where we had what was 275 00:12:15,759 --> 00:12:12,079 called a soft coup against a perfectly 276 00:12:17,230 --> 00:12:15,769 elected government and they brought in 277 00:12:18,670 --> 00:12:17,240 Goldman Sachs and the IMF and they're 278 00:12:20,860 --> 00:12:18,680 running the place but there's one going 279 00:12:22,720 --> 00:12:20,870 on currently in Macedonia and I 280 00:12:24,759 --> 00:12:22,730 personally believe that one has been 281 00:12:29,139 --> 00:12:24,769 going on in the United States in 282 00:12:30,790 --> 00:12:29,149 opposition to the election of Trump and 283 00:12:32,379 --> 00:12:30,800 again I say this not as a supporter of 284 00:12:33,600 --> 00:12:32,389 Trump you said a lot of things in 285 00:12:37,120 --> 00:12:33,610 particular in the last month that I'm 286 00:12:39,730 --> 00:12:37,130 very strongly opposed to but the point 287 00:12:42,189 --> 00:12:39,740 is that mainstream corporate media has 288 00:12:45,480 --> 00:12:42,199 helped to organize in conjunction with 289 00:12:47,379 --> 00:12:45,490 US intelligence a social movement and 290 00:12:49,420 --> 00:12:47,389 and what it has done is it has 291 00:12:52,449 --> 00:12:49,430 destabilized a society what we've really 292 00:12:54,069 --> 00:12:52,459 seen in other words is a an effort by 293 00:12:55,540 --> 00:12:54,079 what people are now calling the deep 294 00:12:58,900 --> 00:12:55,550 state would have often called a national 295 00:13:01,240 --> 00:12:58,910 security state as a way to corral a 296 00:13:03,939 --> 00:13:01,250 politician that they don't think is kind 297 00:13:05,199 --> 00:13:03,949 of in their in their pen but anyway 298 00:13:06,759 --> 00:13:05,209 that's an overview of mainstream now 299 00:13:09,269 --> 00:13:06,769 this is a mainstream media that has also 300 00:13:12,490 --> 00:13:09,279 dealt with the UFO subject and when we 301 00:13:16,000 --> 00:13:12,500 we look at that what I try doing is to 302 00:13:21,309 --> 00:13:16,010 see through the beginning from the 1940s 303 00:13:24,370 --> 00:13:21,319 onward mainstream media has consistently 304 00:13:29,829 --> 00:13:24,380 been incredibly hostile to the UFO 305 00:13:36,519 --> 00:13:29,839 subject what you find is that smaller 306 00:13:37,960 --> 00:13:36,529 media local media then and now today the 307 00:13:40,569 --> 00:13:37,970 equivalent would be alternative media 308 00:13:42,160 --> 00:13:40,579 but back back in the 1940s and 50s and 309 00:13:43,060 --> 00:13:42,170 60s we're talking newspapers and radio 310 00:13:46,210 --> 00:13:43,070 primary 311 00:13:48,430 --> 00:13:46,220 some TV the local media would always be 312 00:13:50,230 --> 00:13:48,440 more inquisitive and more honest and 313 00:13:52,420 --> 00:13:50,240 coming covering stories about UFOs and 314 00:13:54,249 --> 00:13:52,430 flying saucers anyone who goes through 315 00:13:55,960 --> 00:13:54,259 newspaper clippings of the UFO 316 00:13:58,749 --> 00:13:55,970 phenomenon over the 40s and 50s will 317 00:14:01,210 --> 00:13:58,759 find that 90% of the best stories are 318 00:14:02,620 --> 00:14:01,220 local newspapers local sources but 319 00:14:06,160 --> 00:14:02,630 mainstream New York Times Washington 320 00:14:08,920 --> 00:14:06,170 Post no almost never and that has never 321 00:14:11,439 --> 00:14:08,930 changed so you have an established media 322 00:14:14,170 --> 00:14:11,449 and established culture that for 323 00:14:16,569 --> 00:14:14,180 whatever reason we can get into this has 324 00:14:19,030 --> 00:14:16,579 decided UFOs are not going to exist on 325 00:14:21,910 --> 00:14:19,040 their pages and they have effectively 326 00:14:24,100 --> 00:14:21,920 then right up to the present day kept 327 00:14:27,579 --> 00:14:24,110 UFOs off to the fringe so it's an 328 00:14:31,930 --> 00:14:27,589 interesting thing so yeah and I think 329 00:14:36,699 --> 00:14:31,940 what we're looking at my basic analysis 330 00:14:38,350 --> 00:14:36,709 my conclusion is that it's very obvious 331 00:14:42,009 --> 00:14:38,360 to see that the UFO phenomenon has been 332 00:14:44,920 --> 00:14:42,019 an important part of national security 333 00:14:47,860 --> 00:14:44,930 and an important concern and in that 334 00:14:49,780 --> 00:14:47,870 lecture and in my career I've often like 335 00:14:51,939 --> 00:14:49,790 to quote a few particular documents one 336 00:14:55,540 --> 00:14:51,949 of my favorite ones is a CIA document 337 00:14:58,509 --> 00:14:55,550 from 1952 in which the director of 338 00:15:03,579 --> 00:14:58,519 scientific intelligence writes to the 339 00:15:04,930 --> 00:15:03,589 director of the CIA that these these 340 00:15:06,189 --> 00:15:04,940 sightings must have immediate attention 341 00:15:08,170 --> 00:15:06,199 that there are sightings of unexplained 342 00:15:10,420 --> 00:15:08,180 objects at great altitudes and traveling 343 00:15:11,230 --> 00:15:10,430 at high speeds near major US defense 344 00:15:12,970 --> 00:15:11,240 installations 345 00:15:15,490 --> 00:15:12,980 he said that are of such nature that 346 00:15:17,980 --> 00:15:15,500 they are not attributable to natural 347 00:15:21,759 --> 00:15:17,990 phenomena or known types of aerial 348 00:15:24,420 --> 00:15:21,769 vehicles so you know but one of a number 349 00:15:28,090 --> 00:15:24,430 of statements in the during the Cold War 350 00:15:29,710 --> 00:15:28,100 that are very highly classified in which 351 00:15:32,740 --> 00:15:29,720 this phenomenon clearly is being taken 352 00:15:34,329 --> 00:15:32,750 seriously and yet our media which is 353 00:15:38,220 --> 00:15:34,339 supposed to be the watchdog the guardian 354 00:15:40,389 --> 00:15:38,230 of the Republic really mm-hmm 355 00:15:42,040 --> 00:15:40,399 completely dropping the ball so then the 356 00:15:44,889 --> 00:15:42,050 question arises are they doing this 357 00:15:46,360 --> 00:15:44,899 because of their own journalistic biases 358 00:15:47,800 --> 00:15:46,370 and they're just bought their biases as 359 00:15:49,569 --> 00:15:47,810 human beings or is there something else 360 00:15:51,220 --> 00:15:49,579 going on and what I what I would say is 361 00:15:53,949 --> 00:15:51,230 that there's something more going on the 362 00:15:55,000 --> 00:15:53,959 media has explicitly been working in 363 00:15:56,560 --> 00:15:55,010 conjunction with the intelligence 364 00:15:58,360 --> 00:15:56,570 community 365 00:15:59,640 --> 00:15:58,370 we know this in the UFO field through 366 00:16:03,250 --> 00:15:59,650 something known as the Robertson panel 367 00:16:04,180 --> 00:16:03,260 we're in early 1953 the last weekend of 368 00:16:09,730 --> 00:16:04,190 the Truman White House 369 00:16:11,680 --> 00:16:09,740 the CIA did its own study and debunking 370 00:16:15,310 --> 00:16:11,690 of the UFO phenomenon it was already a 371 00:16:16,840 --> 00:16:15,320 rigged game even then right they they 372 00:16:18,880 --> 00:16:16,850 made it as one of their conclusions to 373 00:16:21,250 --> 00:16:18,890 work with major media to debunk the 374 00:16:23,980 --> 00:16:21,260 phenomenon to the public and we also 375 00:16:25,530 --> 00:16:23,990 know outside of the UFO subject of 376 00:16:27,760 --> 00:16:25,540 something known as operation Mockingbird 377 00:16:28,710 --> 00:16:27,770 which I believe I talked about that a 378 00:16:35,590 --> 00:16:28,720 little bit in the lecture and 379 00:16:37,600 --> 00:16:35,600 Mockingbird was a CIA coordinated media 380 00:16:41,260 --> 00:16:37,610 control program it went all through the 381 00:16:42,720 --> 00:16:41,270 Cold War 1940s 50s 60s 70s where the CIA 382 00:16:46,540 --> 00:16:42,730 would have journalists on its payroll 383 00:16:48,340 --> 00:16:46,550 who would report the news in a way that 384 00:16:52,390 --> 00:16:48,350 the CIA liked it would sometimes make up 385 00:16:54,090 --> 00:16:52,400 fake stories the CIA would do this they 386 00:16:56,290 --> 00:16:54,100 normally would make up fake stories 387 00:16:58,750 --> 00:16:56,300 internationally and let them come to the 388 00:17:01,060 --> 00:16:58,760 u.s. that was their way of doing it 389 00:17:02,440 --> 00:17:01,070 safely but they controlled spin they 390 00:17:03,700 --> 00:17:02,450 controlled editorial policy we're 391 00:17:06,460 --> 00:17:03,710 talking near Times Washington Post 392 00:17:08,829 --> 00:17:06,470 particularly and they're always they're 393 00:17:11,140 --> 00:17:08,839 the leaders but also television CBS did 394 00:17:12,670 --> 00:17:11,150 a UFO special in the 60s featuring 395 00:17:15,160 --> 00:17:12,680 Walter Cronkite the great American 396 00:17:17,319 --> 00:17:15,170 anchorman was a UFO debunking piece that 397 00:17:18,189 --> 00:17:17,329 was part of the Robertson panel I would 398 00:17:20,079 --> 00:17:18,199 say part of the whole operation 399 00:17:23,110 --> 00:17:20,089 Mockingbird I think I look at it all as 400 00:17:25,270 --> 00:17:23,120 one thing one piece so in other words 401 00:17:27,520 --> 00:17:25,280 what I'm saying to you and to listeners 402 00:17:30,250 --> 00:17:27,530 is that mainstream media has never been 403 00:17:32,190 --> 00:17:30,260 an honest player or relating to the UFO 404 00:17:35,470 --> 00:17:32,200 phenomenon and it's not an honest player 405 00:17:38,380 --> 00:17:35,480 relating really to anything political in 406 00:17:40,030 --> 00:17:38,390 our society and I think no matter what 407 00:17:41,770 --> 00:17:40,040 once one thinks that their political 408 00:17:43,180 --> 00:17:41,780 orientation is I think if you do an 409 00:17:45,790 --> 00:17:43,190 objective study of the media you see 410 00:17:48,220 --> 00:17:45,800 they are they're working for an agenda 411 00:17:50,230 --> 00:17:48,230 it's an elite agenda it's an 412 00:17:52,030 --> 00:17:50,240 intelligence community dominate agenda 413 00:17:54,240 --> 00:17:52,040 it's a financial community Genda as well 414 00:17:58,240 --> 00:17:54,250 and that these all really work together 415 00:17:59,710 --> 00:17:58,250 as a control system back in the six I've 416 00:18:01,800 --> 00:17:59,720 just wrapped this part up here back in 417 00:18:04,060 --> 00:18:01,810 the 60s and 70s and 80s Noam Chomsky 418 00:18:07,330 --> 00:18:04,070 who's still around he's getting up there 419 00:18:09,320 --> 00:18:07,340 but Chomsky really pioneered this idea 420 00:18:16,489 --> 00:18:09,330 of 421 00:18:18,889 --> 00:18:16,499 having to be superior to Soviet 422 00:18:20,840 --> 00:18:18,899 propaganda back then it was the Cold War 423 00:18:23,479 --> 00:18:20,850 and the Russians the Communists had this 424 00:18:25,879 --> 00:18:23,489 very you know prominent propaganda 425 00:18:27,919 --> 00:18:25,889 system but Chomsky said look you know 426 00:18:30,470 --> 00:18:27,929 there's maybe a little more obvious but 427 00:18:32,119 --> 00:18:30,480 but ours is better 428 00:18:33,769 --> 00:18:32,129 he said Western propaganda really is 429 00:18:35,600 --> 00:18:33,779 better because it has to be better 430 00:18:38,029 --> 00:18:35,610 you know the elites in the Soviet Union 431 00:18:39,979 --> 00:18:38,039 if you were a challenge that system back 432 00:18:41,450 --> 00:18:39,989 in the olden days fine you just get a 433 00:18:43,129 --> 00:18:41,460 3:00 a.m. knock on the door and they 434 00:18:45,169 --> 00:18:43,139 take you off to one of the prisons and 435 00:18:47,389 --> 00:18:45,179 you wouldn't be seen for a while in the 436 00:18:51,169 --> 00:18:47,399 US we didn't have they didn't have that 437 00:18:53,269 --> 00:18:51,179 luxury and so persuasion had to be much 438 00:18:56,119 --> 00:18:53,279 more insidious much much better and 439 00:18:58,629 --> 00:18:56,129 indeed as Chomsky argued for years it 440 00:19:01,460 --> 00:18:58,639 was and is and part of that included 441 00:19:03,950 --> 00:19:01,470 this illusion of a free press is 442 00:19:05,389 --> 00:19:03,960 illusion of freedom which in fact is 443 00:19:07,489 --> 00:19:05,399 much more of a control system than 444 00:19:10,279 --> 00:19:07,499 anything else and that does include UFOs 445 00:19:12,349 --> 00:19:10,289 right and what's interesting about that 446 00:19:14,629 --> 00:19:12,359 too rich is that you know I recently 447 00:19:17,930 --> 00:19:14,639 spoke to another journalist who covered 448 00:19:20,180 --> 00:19:17,940 the you know the psychokinetic and ESP 449 00:19:24,080 --> 00:19:20,190 aspect of what the CIA was doing back 450 00:19:26,419 --> 00:19:24,090 during the Cold War and this this too 451 00:19:29,180 --> 00:19:26,429 was an illusion as well while they while 452 00:19:31,430 --> 00:19:29,190 these phenomena and abilities may be 453 00:19:34,099 --> 00:19:31,440 real it wasn't even that that they were 454 00:19:37,279 --> 00:19:34,109 studying it was the impact it had on the 455 00:19:40,009 --> 00:19:37,289 enemy and their their perception of oh 456 00:19:42,830 --> 00:19:40,019 the US is this far ahead in this 457 00:19:45,619 --> 00:19:42,840 quote-unquote psychic warfare we have to 458 00:19:47,090 --> 00:19:45,629 up the ante as well meanwhile you know 459 00:19:50,149 --> 00:19:47,100 they're still trying to even figure out 460 00:19:52,460 --> 00:19:50,159 if this stuff is real while pushing 461 00:19:55,639 --> 00:19:52,470 another agenda of oh we're already 462 00:19:58,820 --> 00:19:55,649 bending spoons we're able to shut off 463 00:20:01,999 --> 00:19:58,830 you know missiles if we so choose to 464 00:20:03,769 --> 00:20:02,009 through someone's mind its fascinated 465 00:20:05,989 --> 00:20:03,779 and this could you know correlate to the 466 00:20:08,450 --> 00:20:05,999 UFO phenomenon as well and as design 467 00:20:10,820 --> 00:20:08,460 ology that each country or nation has 468 00:20:12,799 --> 00:20:10,830 and I would add a couple of things to 469 00:20:14,359 --> 00:20:12,809 that so I've been interested very 470 00:20:16,430 --> 00:20:14,369 interested from the beginning of my 471 00:20:18,560 --> 00:20:16,440 study of UFOs in in the remote viewing 472 00:20:21,430 --> 00:20:18,570 phenomenon the reason I became 473 00:20:22,700 --> 00:20:21,440 interested way back even in the 90s was 474 00:20:24,889 --> 00:20:22,710 because I 475 00:20:27,350 --> 00:20:24,899 learned that there was this thing called 476 00:20:29,090 --> 00:20:27,360 remote-viewing the CIA and US 477 00:20:31,549 --> 00:20:29,100 intelligence was doing it and that these 478 00:20:33,919 --> 00:20:31,559 remote viewers seemed to be in addition 479 00:20:37,070 --> 00:20:33,929 to other things seeing UFOs all the time 480 00:20:40,010 --> 00:20:37,080 and I noticed this this is a regular 481 00:20:42,080 --> 00:20:40,020 thing so I thought well what's going on 482 00:20:44,720 --> 00:20:42,090 here so I took some time to really study 483 00:20:46,399 --> 00:20:44,730 remote viewing and I got to know some of 484 00:20:50,360 --> 00:20:46,409 the leading remote viewers of that 485 00:20:52,940 --> 00:20:50,370 program I knew Ingo Swann I know Joe 486 00:20:54,500 --> 00:20:52,950 mcmoneagle and Limpy Kanin and some of 487 00:20:56,930 --> 00:20:54,510 these other famous remote viewers and I 488 00:20:59,960 --> 00:20:56,940 I'm not a remote viewer myself but I 489 00:21:02,750 --> 00:20:59,970 have studied this I can i can say i 490 00:21:03,799 --> 00:21:02,760 would say confidently that there's a lot 491 00:21:05,500 --> 00:21:03,809 of things going on in that remote 492 00:21:08,090 --> 00:21:05,510 viewing program part of it was 493 00:21:09,919 --> 00:21:08,100 definitely propagandizing against the 494 00:21:12,680 --> 00:21:09,929 Russians the Soviets thinking you know 495 00:21:14,510 --> 00:21:12,690 wanting them to know that what are what 496 00:21:17,110 --> 00:21:14,520 are the American capabilities but part 497 00:21:19,340 --> 00:21:17,120 of it really was to develop genuine 498 00:21:20,960 --> 00:21:19,350 espionage capabilities with remote 499 00:21:23,570 --> 00:21:20,970 viewing and some of these guys were off 500 00:21:28,340 --> 00:21:23,580 the charts amazing so they were doing 501 00:21:31,340 --> 00:21:28,350 things that like there was and is 502 00:21:33,409 --> 00:21:31,350 something genuine and powerful about 503 00:21:35,960 --> 00:21:33,419 capabilities relating to remote viewing 504 00:21:38,630 --> 00:21:35,970 this is a real thing and it's not always 505 00:21:40,549 --> 00:21:38,640 100% accurate and the real problem with 506 00:21:42,740 --> 00:21:40,559 the remote viewing isn't even getting 507 00:21:45,799 --> 00:21:42,750 the signal isn't often it's interpreting 508 00:21:48,260 --> 00:21:45,809 it so like you'll get a you'll get a 509 00:21:50,630 --> 00:21:48,270 vision of something that turns out to be 510 00:21:52,039 --> 00:21:50,640 quite accurate but it's if you don't 511 00:21:55,039 --> 00:21:52,049 really have a context for what you're 512 00:21:56,360 --> 00:21:55,049 looking at you will interpret it often 513 00:21:58,100 --> 00:21:56,370 in the wrong way so if from an 514 00:22:00,950 --> 00:21:58,110 intelligence point of view it's not 515 00:22:03,320 --> 00:22:00,960 always useful information and it's a hit 516 00:22:05,980 --> 00:22:03,330 or miss thing scientifically it's 517 00:22:10,310 --> 00:22:05,990 fascinating but certainly within the 518 00:22:13,039 --> 00:22:10,320 intelligence community these people were 519 00:22:15,440 --> 00:22:13,049 doing unbelievable work all through the 520 00:22:17,659 --> 00:22:15,450 70s and 80s and into the 90s and then of 521 00:22:20,539 --> 00:22:17,669 course the whole reason we know about it 522 00:22:23,620 --> 00:22:20,549 I can tell you frankly is that the 523 00:22:26,720 --> 00:22:23,630 journalist Jim Marrs was writing a an 524 00:22:28,460 --> 00:22:26,730 expose on it in the mid 90s he Jim Marrs 525 00:22:31,120 --> 00:22:28,470 was going to be the first author to 526 00:22:33,649 --> 00:22:31,130 break the story about remote viewing and 527 00:22:36,560 --> 00:22:33,659 I've spoken to him about this at length 528 00:22:40,970 --> 00:22:36,570 and his book got stymied 529 00:22:43,249 --> 00:22:40,980 by his publisher for several years was 530 00:22:45,649 --> 00:22:43,259 just stuck and in the meantime and they 531 00:22:47,840 --> 00:22:45,659 said well we just I can't remember the 532 00:22:50,659 --> 00:22:47,850 excuses they gave him but they they 533 00:22:53,840 --> 00:22:50,669 effectively put the book on hold and in 534 00:22:57,680 --> 00:22:53,850 the meantime a guy who many of us I 535 00:22:58,940 --> 00:22:57,690 think has CIA connections trying to 536 00:23:01,129 --> 00:22:58,950 remember his name now colleague it'll 537 00:23:03,200 --> 00:23:01,139 come to me he wrote the book he wrote 538 00:23:05,960 --> 00:23:03,210 the first remote-viewing book mmm-hmm 539 00:23:07,759 --> 00:23:05,970 and I was in the mid 90s it'll come to 540 00:23:11,389 --> 00:23:07,769 me before the end of this and and that 541 00:23:13,419 --> 00:23:11,399 in that book what he did was he said he 542 00:23:16,789 --> 00:23:13,429 really played the party line very well 543 00:23:20,690 --> 00:23:16,799 he later did a book that debunked crop 544 00:23:23,299 --> 00:23:20,700 circles - round and round in circles but 545 00:23:24,379 --> 00:23:23,309 anyway what he said was yeah you know 546 00:23:25,159 --> 00:23:24,389 they did a little bit of this they 547 00:23:27,139 --> 00:23:25,169 didn't really know what they were 548 00:23:28,430 --> 00:23:27,149 getting they got a couple of hits seems 549 00:23:31,460 --> 00:23:28,440 interesting but they didn't really have 550 00:23:33,980 --> 00:23:31,470 much success with it and that was the 551 00:23:36,470 --> 00:23:33,990 CIA's official story when they came out 552 00:23:40,460 --> 00:23:36,480 in the mid 90s they basically they 553 00:23:42,019 --> 00:23:40,470 Declassified it because Jim Marrs was I 554 00:23:43,820 --> 00:23:42,029 mean other researchers were about to 555 00:23:44,960 --> 00:23:43,830 blow the lid on it it's the only reason 556 00:23:47,570 --> 00:23:44,970 I think we really know about remote 557 00:23:48,980 --> 00:23:47,580 viewing officially and they decided to 558 00:23:51,740 --> 00:23:48,990 get out ahead of the story and control 559 00:23:54,649 --> 00:23:51,750 the spin and in that case I mean we're 560 00:23:56,659 --> 00:23:54,659 talking about media here actually the I 561 00:23:58,369 --> 00:23:56,669 think it was Nightline with Ted Koppel 562 00:24:01,749 --> 00:23:58,379 they did a thing on remote viewing and 563 00:24:04,220 --> 00:24:01,759 it was completely in line with the cia's 564 00:24:07,340 --> 00:24:04,230 party line and that's what the 565 00:24:10,419 --> 00:24:07,350 mainstream media does they work hand in 566 00:24:12,740 --> 00:24:10,429 glove with the US intelligence community 567 00:24:14,060 --> 00:24:12,750 and now I mean my goodness something 568 00:24:16,879 --> 00:24:14,070 like The Washington Post owned by Jeff 569 00:24:19,369 --> 00:24:16,889 Bezos who owns Amazon we know Amazon 570 00:24:21,110 --> 00:24:19,379 does all cloud computing and storage for 571 00:24:22,669 --> 00:24:21,120 the CIA they've got a multi multi 572 00:24:24,619 --> 00:24:22,679 multi-billion dollar contract and it's 573 00:24:27,950 --> 00:24:24,629 not just CIA anymore Bezos does the work 574 00:24:31,490 --> 00:24:27,960 for the entire US intelligence community 575 00:24:33,470 --> 00:24:31,500 my understanding is so the Washington 576 00:24:37,789 --> 00:24:33,480 Washington Post is owned by a guy who is 577 00:24:40,310 --> 00:24:37,799 deeply in bed with the US intelligence 578 00:24:44,360 --> 00:24:40,320 community it's just this is one 579 00:24:45,590 --> 00:24:44,370 connection so anything I didn't mean to 580 00:24:48,200 --> 00:24:45,600 turn this around from the remote viewing 581 00:24:49,930 --> 00:24:48,210 but to get back to the media people need 582 00:24:54,289 --> 00:24:49,940 to understand 583 00:24:56,860 --> 00:24:54,299 anything that comes through us dominated 584 00:25:01,519 --> 00:24:56,870 establishment media has to be suspect 585 00:25:04,100 --> 00:25:01,529 every single thing and people will often 586 00:25:06,080 --> 00:25:04,110 ask me well just as great Dolan so you 587 00:25:08,629 --> 00:25:06,090 don't want people to listen to CNN or 588 00:25:10,220 --> 00:25:08,639 read a New York Times or Time magazine 589 00:25:11,869 --> 00:25:10,230 what the heck are we supposed to read 590 00:25:12,919 --> 00:25:11,879 how we are we supposed to get our 591 00:25:16,940 --> 00:25:12,929 information right 592 00:25:21,230 --> 00:25:16,950 and I I what's the first thing that I 593 00:25:24,070 --> 00:25:21,240 would say is that we are in a difficult 594 00:25:27,529 --> 00:25:24,080 position every one of us who is a 595 00:25:30,259 --> 00:25:27,539 thinking person with some intellectual 596 00:25:32,960 --> 00:25:30,269 interests in this world and we all have 597 00:25:35,480 --> 00:25:32,970 to realize there's no way around this 598 00:25:39,350 --> 00:25:35,490 that we are surrounded by a very 599 00:25:43,340 --> 00:25:39,360 powerful media mind control system and 600 00:25:48,049 --> 00:25:43,350 of story it is and this is not an easy 601 00:25:51,440 --> 00:25:48,059 task for us to be educated aware 602 00:25:53,090 --> 00:25:51,450 citizens of the world but one thing that 603 00:25:56,149 --> 00:25:53,100 I would encourage people to do is to go 604 00:25:58,549 --> 00:25:56,159 to some truly independent alternative 605 00:26:01,190 --> 00:25:58,559 media sources the kind of thing that 606 00:26:03,680 --> 00:26:01,200 you're doing is one good source you know 607 00:26:05,779 --> 00:26:03,690 anything that takes us out of the 608 00:26:07,999 --> 00:26:05,789 corporate establishment mainstream is a 609 00:26:10,430 --> 00:26:08,009 good thing now there's a step there's 610 00:26:13,580 --> 00:26:10,440 alternative media that's actually not 611 00:26:16,399 --> 00:26:13,590 that alternative media like BuzzFeed is 612 00:26:20,960 --> 00:26:16,409 certainly not alternative media they'll 613 00:26:22,369 --> 00:26:20,970 pander to you know generation the 614 00:26:23,990 --> 00:26:22,379 Millennials and they'll but but that 615 00:26:25,610 --> 00:26:24,000 doesn't make them alternatives sorry 616 00:26:27,680 --> 00:26:25,620 they're they're actually totally part of 617 00:26:31,879 --> 00:26:27,690 the establishment but there are 618 00:26:34,460 --> 00:26:31,889 alternative their small or media and and 619 00:26:37,940 --> 00:26:34,470 we need to find them I go outside the US 620 00:26:39,259 --> 00:26:37,950 and I have to go to the media that are 621 00:26:42,019 --> 00:26:39,269 they're demonized 622 00:26:43,759 --> 00:26:42,029 as so-called fake news because the fact 623 00:26:47,299 --> 00:26:43,769 is that these are the only places that I 624 00:26:47,899 --> 00:26:47,309 find are generally providing information 625 00:26:49,999 --> 00:26:47,909 that are useful 626 00:26:52,220 --> 00:26:50,009 I do read my New York Times headlines on 627 00:26:53,450 --> 00:26:52,230 my iPhone mm-hmm and all the headlines 628 00:26:54,710 --> 00:26:53,460 that everyone else guess I get CNN 629 00:26:57,289 --> 00:26:54,720 headlines every day and I 630 00:26:58,700 --> 00:26:57,299 I do read CNN story so I know I failed 631 00:27:01,519 --> 00:26:58,710 as part of my job to know what they're 632 00:27:03,180 --> 00:27:01,529 saying I read The Washington Post every 633 00:27:07,650 --> 00:27:03,190 day 634 00:27:10,620 --> 00:27:07,660 I'm very aware of what mainstream is 635 00:27:13,710 --> 00:27:10,630 saying but I will also read RT that is 636 00:27:17,270 --> 00:27:13,720 formerly Russia today too discussed is 637 00:27:21,630 --> 00:27:17,280 by the current CIA director as a tool of 638 00:27:24,000 --> 00:27:21,640 Putin's propaganda nonsense I don't 639 00:27:25,050 --> 00:27:24,010 believe that in the least I don't say 640 00:27:27,330 --> 00:27:25,060 that they're right about everything of 641 00:27:29,340 --> 00:27:27,340 course but I four news around the world 642 00:27:32,190 --> 00:27:29,350 I will always want to know what they 643 00:27:33,780 --> 00:27:32,200 have to say always every time and I 644 00:27:36,600 --> 00:27:33,790 simply go by the quality of analysis 645 00:27:38,310 --> 00:27:36,610 it's always superior I also go to a 646 00:27:41,940 --> 00:27:38,320 Canadian website that's my favorite 647 00:27:44,640 --> 00:27:41,950 website for history and politics and 648 00:27:47,730 --> 00:27:44,650 that's called Global Research dot CA and 649 00:27:50,400 --> 00:27:47,740 that's run by a man named Michelle shell 650 00:27:52,380 --> 00:27:50,410 Sadovsky who is doing what I think Noam 651 00:27:53,880 --> 00:27:52,390 Chomsky should be doing but isn't doing 652 00:27:58,350 --> 00:27:53,890 so show Sadowski is doing it he's kind 653 00:28:01,080 --> 00:27:58,360 of like them I think the modern-day the 654 00:28:03,480 --> 00:28:01,090 true successor to the Chomsky tradition 655 00:28:05,760 --> 00:28:03,490 of a media analysis and political 656 00:28:07,590 --> 00:28:05,770 analysis and so the web website he runs 657 00:28:10,500 --> 00:28:07,600 Global Research CA it's run out of 658 00:28:13,290 --> 00:28:10,510 Montreal is uh he has superb 659 00:28:14,880 --> 00:28:13,300 commentators in my opinion you know like 660 00:28:16,440 --> 00:28:14,890 many of these alternative sites I don't 661 00:28:18,300 --> 00:28:16,450 I don't agree with everything that I see 662 00:28:20,790 --> 00:28:18,310 on global research dot CA and I don't 663 00:28:23,580 --> 00:28:20,800 agree with everything I read or see what 664 00:28:25,410 --> 00:28:23,590 the take of things in RT but what I find 665 00:28:27,420 --> 00:28:25,420 is that they are a different perspective 666 00:28:28,650 --> 00:28:27,430 and usually a much more correct 667 00:28:31,350 --> 00:28:28,660 perspective and a more honest one 668 00:28:33,870 --> 00:28:31,360 typically right yeah and I mean the 669 00:28:36,840 --> 00:28:33,880 mainstream yeah yeah and I mean do your 670 00:28:39,300 --> 00:28:36,850 research people I mean it sort of brings 671 00:28:42,360 --> 00:28:39,310 me back to another journalist friend of 672 00:28:44,250 --> 00:28:42,370 mine who introduced me to the lyrics of 673 00:28:46,680 --> 00:28:44,260 a Dead Kennedys song and it's quote 674 00:28:48,390 --> 00:28:46,690 don't hate the media become the media so 675 00:28:49,740 --> 00:28:48,400 things like what the penalties isn't 676 00:28:55,020 --> 00:28:49,750 that awesome 677 00:28:57,420 --> 00:28:55,030 and how long ago was that 1980 so if you 678 00:29:00,240 --> 00:28:57,430 need 79 yeah a long time ago so this 679 00:29:03,060 --> 00:29:00,250 idea of you know not only disinformation 680 00:29:04,860 --> 00:29:03,070 but media bias and everything that 681 00:29:08,460 --> 00:29:04,870 follows has been going on for a while 682 00:29:10,860 --> 00:29:08,470 guy he's the other thing that I do and 683 00:29:12,510 --> 00:29:10,870 this is just a lifelong advantage I've 684 00:29:14,280 --> 00:29:12,520 given myself is that I've just studied 685 00:29:16,410 --> 00:29:14,290 history non-stop I still study history 686 00:29:16,860 --> 00:29:16,420 non-stop on my Kindle reader in my 687 00:29:18,299 --> 00:29:16,870 downtown 688 00:29:21,720 --> 00:29:18,309 I'm reading some old history book from 689 00:29:24,780 --> 00:29:21,730 hundred years ago so I mean for me in 690 00:29:28,700 --> 00:29:24,790 other words I have I've developed a good 691 00:29:33,360 --> 00:29:28,710 perspective on history and politics and 692 00:29:34,830 --> 00:29:33,370 so I mean I just know that there are 693 00:29:37,230 --> 00:29:34,840 certain patterns that have existed in 694 00:29:38,640 --> 00:29:37,240 our world and I've developed a good 695 00:29:40,049 --> 00:29:38,650 historical foundation I don't know how 696 00:29:42,030 --> 00:29:40,059 to tell someone you there's no way to 697 00:29:43,950 --> 00:29:42,040 get these things quickly right you know 698 00:29:46,140 --> 00:29:43,960 if someone someone's living the CNN 699 00:29:47,250 --> 00:29:46,150 reality if they have that on their TV 700 00:29:49,590 --> 00:29:47,260 the first thing I would tell people is 701 00:29:52,590 --> 00:29:49,600 just turn that stuff off it's like 702 00:29:55,200 --> 00:29:52,600 someone who's drinking cans of coke 703 00:29:56,490 --> 00:29:55,210 every day or Pepsi and they want to be 704 00:29:57,720 --> 00:29:56,500 healthy I'd say the first thing you have 705 00:30:00,000 --> 00:29:57,730 to do is stop drinking that stuff 706 00:30:02,100 --> 00:30:00,010 because your place your toxifying your 707 00:30:03,810 --> 00:30:02,110 body your system all that sugar it will 708 00:30:06,500 --> 00:30:03,820 it will literally kill you I know a man 709 00:30:09,840 --> 00:30:06,510 who actually I'm convinced died of this 710 00:30:11,610 --> 00:30:09,850 I think it gave him a mess he drank 10 711 00:30:15,240 --> 00:30:11,620 plus cans of coke a day I mean it was 712 00:30:17,910 --> 00:30:15,250 just absurd and it's the same with news 713 00:30:19,530 --> 00:30:17,920 you know we talk about we have faked it 714 00:30:24,750 --> 00:30:19,540 we have more than fake news in our world 715 00:30:26,160 --> 00:30:24,760 we have fake food yeah big fake politics 716 00:30:28,110 --> 00:30:26,170 we have every everything that we 717 00:30:29,880 --> 00:30:28,120 honestly I think when we look around we 718 00:30:32,280 --> 00:30:29,890 have a almost a fake environment in many 719 00:30:35,340 --> 00:30:32,290 ways but we definitely have fake food 720 00:30:37,169 --> 00:30:35,350 and fake news and so the first thing you 721 00:30:39,330 --> 00:30:37,179 have to do is you have to stop bringing 722 00:30:41,010 --> 00:30:39,340 the poison in that's a little number 723 00:30:42,570 --> 00:30:41,020 ones you have to stop what CNN you have 724 00:30:46,140 --> 00:30:42,580 to stop with New York Times I mean truly 725 00:30:47,760 --> 00:30:46,150 stop and I'll just I'll just do this as 726 00:30:49,169 --> 00:30:47,770 an aside I don't we get into a whole 727 00:30:51,390 --> 00:30:49,179 Hillary Trump thing I mean we're getting 728 00:30:53,970 --> 00:30:51,400 kind of past that anyway but I will say 729 00:30:56,070 --> 00:30:53,980 this I was a fan of neither of those 730 00:30:57,299 --> 00:30:56,080 candidates I was one of the people had a 731 00:30:58,520 --> 00:30:57,309 Bernie sign in front of my house oh 732 00:31:01,350 --> 00:30:58,530 that's you 733 00:31:04,770 --> 00:31:01,360 okay I might lose or gain some listeners 734 00:31:08,460 --> 00:31:04,780 but that's okay you know I would say to 735 00:31:10,169 --> 00:31:08,470 people I was not a fan of either of the 736 00:31:11,580 --> 00:31:10,179 candidates I said joke and say I felt 737 00:31:13,169 --> 00:31:11,590 like I'm in the Wild West with two 738 00:31:17,100 --> 00:31:13,179 gunslingers shooting at me whatever 739 00:31:19,500 --> 00:31:17,110 wherever I go they're shooting but what 740 00:31:22,080 --> 00:31:19,510 what I noticed objectively is simply 741 00:31:23,640 --> 00:31:22,090 that the establishment media was very 742 00:31:29,280 --> 00:31:23,650 very clear as to who they wanted in it 743 00:31:30,450 --> 00:31:29,290 was obvious 95% plus literally 95% plus 744 00:31:31,650 --> 00:31:30,460 of media establish 745 00:31:35,340 --> 00:31:31,660 Vince wanted Hillary Clinton in the 746 00:31:38,490 --> 00:31:35,350 White House and the reason was obvious 747 00:31:40,320 --> 00:31:38,500 to me it was obvious because she she was 748 00:31:44,060 --> 00:31:40,330 basically a continuation of the neocon 749 00:31:46,500 --> 00:31:44,070 the neoconservative neoliberal doctrine 750 00:31:47,940 --> 00:31:46,510 where a Trump who's now fulfilling all 751 00:31:48,930 --> 00:31:47,950 of those things that Hillary talked 752 00:31:51,330 --> 00:31:48,940 about by the way he's completely 753 00:31:53,010 --> 00:31:51,340 switched over but as a candidate Trump 754 00:31:54,570 --> 00:31:53,020 was not on board with that and Hillary 755 00:31:57,390 --> 00:31:54,580 was so she was the establishment 756 00:31:58,320 --> 00:31:57,400 candidate it was obvious you know she's 757 00:32:01,560 --> 00:31:58,330 the one who went to the Bilderberg 758 00:32:03,660 --> 00:32:01,570 meeting in 2008 that was her she's the 759 00:32:05,910 --> 00:32:03,670 one who's worked with the system her 760 00:32:08,760 --> 00:32:05,920 whole career and she was a team player 761 00:32:12,390 --> 00:32:08,770 and so all corporate media wanted her on 762 00:32:14,670 --> 00:32:12,400 board and knowing that was the the 763 00:32:18,060 --> 00:32:14,680 biggest mark against her in my book 764 00:32:20,940 --> 00:32:18,070 personally that there is this lying meet 765 00:32:24,180 --> 00:32:20,950 mainstream I mean it's it astonish me or 766 00:32:25,710 --> 00:32:24,190 all of my friends I'm someone who I 767 00:32:28,260 --> 00:32:25,720 guess would identify as having been on 768 00:32:29,700 --> 00:32:28,270 the left my whole life until this last 769 00:32:32,370 --> 00:32:29,710 year I don't know what to think of the 770 00:32:34,560 --> 00:32:32,380 left anymore but my friends on the left 771 00:32:36,300 --> 00:32:34,570 none of them trust the CIA 772 00:32:38,700 --> 00:32:36,310 none of them tell me they trust the 773 00:32:42,180 --> 00:32:38,710 media until this last year when they all 774 00:32:43,860 --> 00:32:42,190 trust the CIA yeah like what happened to 775 00:32:46,140 --> 00:32:43,870 you people what happened to my friends 776 00:32:48,120 --> 00:32:46,150 they they all believe that a Trump was 777 00:32:49,350 --> 00:32:48,130 an agent of Putin and Satre net live did 778 00:32:55,100 --> 00:32:49,360 the whole thing the Trump Putin thing 779 00:32:58,080 --> 00:32:55,110 seriously anyway I feel like the media 780 00:32:59,850 --> 00:32:58,090 does create sickness in our society this 781 00:33:04,110 --> 00:32:59,860 actually might be a further study of 782 00:33:07,290 --> 00:33:04,120 mine I learned from a close friend of 783 00:33:09,090 --> 00:33:07,300 mine who when people go into therapy the 784 00:33:11,010 --> 00:33:09,100 first thing one of the first things a 785 00:33:12,120 --> 00:33:11,020 good therapist will say to them if 786 00:33:15,000 --> 00:33:12,130 they're dealing with anxiety and stress 787 00:33:17,460 --> 00:33:15,010 and so on is are you watching television 788 00:33:21,600 --> 00:33:17,470 news or are you eating news and if you 789 00:33:23,490 --> 00:33:21,610 are stopped yeah so and again this goes 790 00:33:25,950 --> 00:33:23,500 back to the idea that the media does 791 00:33:29,550 --> 00:33:25,960 kind of make us sick and but it's not 792 00:33:32,430 --> 00:33:29,560 all news you know I feel that being an 793 00:33:35,220 --> 00:33:32,440 informed person does not make us sick it 794 00:33:37,020 --> 00:33:35,230 hasn't made me sick I feel I feel great 795 00:33:38,220 --> 00:33:37,030 last thing I were saying the media and I 796 00:33:41,730 --> 00:33:38,230 know you probably want to switch gears 797 00:33:43,890 --> 00:33:41,740 is for people who are not still 798 00:33:46,200 --> 00:33:43,900 believing this I would tell them to 799 00:33:48,480 --> 00:33:46,210 get knowledgeable of a couple of really 800 00:33:50,640 --> 00:33:48,490 prominent recent media whistleblowers 801 00:33:53,580 --> 00:33:50,650 there's a later than a big fan of named 802 00:33:55,700 --> 00:33:53,590 Amber Lyon three-time Emmy Award winner 803 00:33:58,440 --> 00:33:55,710 journalist she was with CNN for years 804 00:34:00,480 --> 00:33:58,450 back in 2011 she reported on the Arab 805 00:34:02,100 --> 00:34:00,490 Spring and then she just got sick of it 806 00:34:04,350 --> 00:34:02,110 she said I can't do this anymore and she 807 00:34:09,419 --> 00:34:04,360 just says look governments are paid up 808 00:34:11,250 --> 00:34:09,429 paying us to create fake news and she 809 00:34:13,500 --> 00:34:11,260 talked she when she did the Arab Spring 810 00:34:16,409 --> 00:34:13,510 back in 2011 she just said CNN was 811 00:34:18,659 --> 00:34:16,419 routinely paid by the US government and 812 00:34:20,790 --> 00:34:18,669 by foreign governments to selectively 813 00:34:23,280 --> 00:34:20,800 report on certain events and to make up 814 00:34:25,470 --> 00:34:23,290 fake news stories and anyone has gone 815 00:34:27,360 --> 00:34:25,480 into this at all would make CNN news I 816 00:34:29,070 --> 00:34:27,370 mean there's a wealth of information to 817 00:34:32,310 --> 00:34:29,080 look for there's another man who I'm a 818 00:34:35,850 --> 00:34:32,320 big big fan of recently died as chairman 819 00:34:38,760 --> 00:34:35,860 german journalist named dr. Arata and 820 00:34:40,590 --> 00:34:38,770 he's on youtube you can find him he 821 00:34:44,149 --> 00:34:40,600 talks about how you know we all lie for 822 00:34:47,129 --> 00:34:44,159 the CIA mm-hmm he was doing stories back 823 00:34:49,379 --> 00:34:47,139 2010-2011 he said the CIA would write 824 00:34:51,090 --> 00:34:49,389 this is he said all all European news is 825 00:34:54,450 --> 00:34:51,100 controlled by the CIA they would 826 00:34:56,390 --> 00:34:54,460 literally write stories that he would 827 00:34:59,550 --> 00:34:56,400 have to put his byline to on Libya on 828 00:35:01,560 --> 00:34:59,560 Muammar Qaddafi in that case and he said 829 00:35:03,510 --> 00:35:01,570 if I if I didn't comply I would have 830 00:35:05,790 --> 00:35:03,520 just lost my job but they would write 831 00:35:07,230 --> 00:35:05,800 the stories my name would be on it and 832 00:35:10,380 --> 00:35:07,240 it would be these all these hit pieces 833 00:35:12,240 --> 00:35:10,390 propaganda pieces that as your team and 834 00:35:13,950 --> 00:35:12,250 European journalism and then I'm a big 835 00:35:17,550 --> 00:35:13,960 fan of the lading sharyl Attkisson 836 00:35:19,800 --> 00:35:17,560 former CBS News and she's out there 837 00:35:22,410 --> 00:35:19,810 she's given TED talks I believe and she 838 00:35:24,690 --> 00:35:22,420 talks about like astroturfing which is a 839 00:35:28,280 --> 00:35:24,700 very important phenomenon basically 840 00:35:31,980 --> 00:35:28,290 faking your data to promote yourself 841 00:35:33,780 --> 00:35:31,990 astroturf thing happens on Wikipedia she 842 00:35:38,910 --> 00:35:33,790 calls an astroturf Furze dream come true 843 00:35:41,880 --> 00:35:38,920 as Wikipedia but how the news around us 844 00:35:43,890 --> 00:35:41,890 is is very deliberately falsified right 845 00:35:48,930 --> 00:35:43,900 so there's a lot of information on this 846 00:35:51,570 --> 00:35:48,940 out there too much to be honest but I'm 847 00:35:54,380 --> 00:35:51,580 so happy you're able to steer us towards 848 00:35:57,570 --> 00:35:54,390 some some sources that we can actually 849 00:36:00,990 --> 00:35:57,580 write nothing thank 850 00:36:03,300 --> 00:36:01,000 nothing is certain and no source not Ark 851 00:36:05,850 --> 00:36:03,310 I talk about RT in global research look 852 00:36:08,550 --> 00:36:05,860 I like them very much I find that they 853 00:36:11,580 --> 00:36:08,560 give me a leg up against people who 854 00:36:17,370 --> 00:36:11,590 follow the mainstream that's for sure 855 00:36:19,800 --> 00:36:17,380 but that nothing is certain I mean what 856 00:36:23,040 --> 00:36:19,810 we all have to do is we have to use our 857 00:36:25,500 --> 00:36:23,050 brain we have to think and it's you know 858 00:36:27,570 --> 00:36:25,510 there's no magic formula I'm sorry to 859 00:36:29,940 --> 00:36:27,580 say this to people there's no sure-shot 860 00:36:32,790 --> 00:36:29,950 way to say oh for sure 861 00:36:34,740 --> 00:36:32,800 read this site don't go there but we 862 00:36:36,860 --> 00:36:34,750 have to do though is understand first 863 00:36:40,020 --> 00:36:36,870 and foremost that we are part of a 864 00:36:43,260 --> 00:36:40,030 control system and I think once we get 865 00:36:45,600 --> 00:36:43,270 that we can begin a process and it can 866 00:36:48,180 --> 00:36:45,610 take years for some people depending on 867 00:36:49,620 --> 00:36:48,190 how far into the system they are you 868 00:36:51,960 --> 00:36:49,630 know it's not as easy like in the matrix 869 00:36:55,200 --> 00:36:51,970 where you just take the red pill and all 870 00:36:57,570 --> 00:36:55,210 is revealed I wish it were that easy we 871 00:36:59,910 --> 00:36:57,580 are peeling the deception away by layer 872 00:37:03,810 --> 00:36:59,920 after layer after layer and it does take 873 00:37:05,130 --> 00:37:03,820 time and it's emotionally difficult you 874 00:37:07,980 --> 00:37:05,140 know I'm doing research on false flags 875 00:37:10,530 --> 00:37:07,990 these days and what I've definitely 876 00:37:13,290 --> 00:37:10,540 learned is that one reason false flags 877 00:37:16,500 --> 00:37:13,300 are so successful is because they 878 00:37:18,300 --> 00:37:16,510 combine our our emotion with our mind so 879 00:37:22,050 --> 00:37:18,310 the trauma of a false flag which is 880 00:37:26,130 --> 00:37:22,060 always horrible you know tears at us 881 00:37:28,170 --> 00:37:26,140 emotionally and and then what makes them 882 00:37:29,670 --> 00:37:28,180 effective is that the authorities will 883 00:37:32,430 --> 00:37:29,680 come in immediately with a narrative 884 00:37:34,170 --> 00:37:32,440 that appeals to our intellect and so the 885 00:37:35,820 --> 00:37:34,180 intellect is kind of married to the 886 00:37:39,450 --> 00:37:35,830 emotion the mind and the heart become 887 00:37:42,720 --> 00:37:39,460 one and once we accept that explanation 888 00:37:44,910 --> 00:37:42,730 from the authorities it becomes wedded 889 00:37:47,250 --> 00:37:44,920 to the trauma and it becomes very very 890 00:37:49,290 --> 00:37:47,260 difficult if not impossible for most 891 00:37:52,590 --> 00:37:49,300 people to question that intellectual 892 00:37:55,920 --> 00:37:52,600 explanation false flags work on this 893 00:37:59,160 --> 00:37:55,930 very devious way that they use this 894 00:38:01,620 --> 00:37:59,170 manipulation it's very effective so for 895 00:38:02,790 --> 00:38:01,630 and it doesn't work simply with false 896 00:38:05,820 --> 00:38:02,800 Flags it works with all forms of 897 00:38:07,590 --> 00:38:05,830 propaganda people buy into something and 898 00:38:08,970 --> 00:38:07,600 the longer and longer you buy into 899 00:38:10,210 --> 00:38:08,980 something the harder and harder it is to 900 00:38:12,590 --> 00:38:10,220 buy out 901 00:38:17,360 --> 00:38:12,600 absolutely I couldn't put it better 902 00:38:21,560 --> 00:38:17,370 myself well in terms of love it or hate 903 00:38:23,150 --> 00:38:21,570 it rich um a lot of people are into this 904 00:38:25,280 --> 00:38:23,160 movement and that's the idea of 905 00:38:25,850 --> 00:38:25,290 disclosure I'm getting back to the UFO 906 00:38:30,410 --> 00:38:25,860 talk 907 00:38:32,750 --> 00:38:30,420 oh yes MIT and you recently looked into 908 00:38:35,330 --> 00:38:32,760 you came out with a small publication 909 00:38:37,550 --> 00:38:35,340 about UFOs and disclosure and the Trump 910 00:38:39,230 --> 00:38:37,560 era no I just want to briefly touch on 911 00:38:43,280 --> 00:38:39,240 this because we could talk about this 912 00:38:47,090 --> 00:38:43,290 forever but this idea that you know we 913 00:38:49,160 --> 00:38:47,100 have a a POTUS who is not afraid to 914 00:38:52,760 --> 00:38:49,170 tweet at 3:00 a.m. in the morning so 915 00:38:55,430 --> 00:38:52,770 writing about anything so in terms of 916 00:38:59,210 --> 00:38:55,440 the UFO question some people think that 917 00:39:01,190 --> 00:38:59,220 this may be the time that we get a tweet 918 00:39:03,350 --> 00:39:01,200 in the morning about what happened in 919 00:39:05,990 --> 00:39:03,360 ronzo I mean that's going a little far 920 00:39:07,400 --> 00:39:06,000 but I was one of the first people I 921 00:39:08,810 --> 00:39:07,410 think the to just put that little idea 922 00:39:12,350 --> 00:39:08,820 out there and I almost did it 923 00:39:14,630 --> 00:39:12,360 whimsically I wrote a piece on Trump and 924 00:39:18,020 --> 00:39:14,640 disclosure the day after he got elected 925 00:39:21,890 --> 00:39:18,030 I remember when yeah when the world when 926 00:39:24,980 --> 00:39:21,900 most of the the I guess the liberal the 927 00:39:27,350 --> 00:39:24,990 left world was going into some serious 928 00:39:30,410 --> 00:39:27,360 serious serious trauma over that 929 00:39:32,630 --> 00:39:30,420 election and certainly in the UFO fields 930 00:39:34,790 --> 00:39:32,640 there were a lot of folks you know our 931 00:39:37,330 --> 00:39:34,800 friend Stephen Bassett and grant Cameron 932 00:39:39,790 --> 00:39:37,340 for two of them really believed that 933 00:39:42,410 --> 00:39:39,800 Hillary Clinton was the disclosure 934 00:39:44,900 --> 00:39:42,420 candidate I mean fast Bessette 935 00:39:46,670 --> 00:39:44,910 absolutely believed that actually he 936 00:39:50,420 --> 00:39:46,680 believed furthermore that Obama would do 937 00:39:51,860 --> 00:39:50,430 it before the end of the his term I for 938 00:39:53,060 --> 00:39:51,870 my part I publicly stated many times 939 00:39:55,550 --> 00:39:53,070 that I did not believe that that would 940 00:39:58,130 --> 00:39:55,560 happen but we all thought Hillary 941 00:39:59,450 --> 00:39:58,140 Clinton would win I certainly thought 942 00:40:01,160 --> 00:39:59,460 she was going to go I thought was a done 943 00:40:03,460 --> 00:40:01,170 deal frankly the whole system was just 944 00:40:05,720 --> 00:40:03,470 rigged on her behalf that was my opinion 945 00:40:07,370 --> 00:40:05,730 anyway so when Trump got elected I 946 00:40:10,520 --> 00:40:07,380 thought well let's just take a look at 947 00:40:13,640 --> 00:40:10,530 this situation this was a guy who at 948 00:40:15,170 --> 00:40:13,650 least particularly at that time there's 949 00:40:17,800 --> 00:40:15,180 been a struggle going on since then and 950 00:40:23,790 --> 00:40:17,810 we need to talk about this but Trump 951 00:40:26,190 --> 00:40:23,800 seems like a guy who he's not he 952 00:40:29,100 --> 00:40:26,200 a disruptor he's a disruptor and no 953 00:40:31,290 --> 00:40:29,110 matter how one looks at him he he's 954 00:40:33,540 --> 00:40:31,300 staring up the pot a bit and he was 955 00:40:34,740 --> 00:40:33,550 saying things this whole as a candidate 956 00:40:37,020 --> 00:40:34,750 you know let's make friends with Russia 957 00:40:39,120 --> 00:40:37,030 this is a big thing and he got reamed 958 00:40:40,590 --> 00:40:39,130 for this by him all sides of the 959 00:40:43,470 --> 00:40:40,600 political spectrum it was astonishing to 960 00:40:45,900 --> 00:40:43,480 watch and then his anti-globalist thing 961 00:40:48,810 --> 00:40:45,910 was was very clearly against the the 962 00:40:51,690 --> 00:40:48,820 main current so I thought this is a guy 963 00:40:53,040 --> 00:40:51,700 who's become an enemy of big parts of 964 00:40:56,610 --> 00:40:53,050 the national security apparatus it's 965 00:40:58,020 --> 00:40:56,620 obvious and you know I never thought 966 00:40:59,400 --> 00:40:58,030 Hillary Clinton would be a disclosure 967 00:41:03,150 --> 00:40:59,410 candidate because I saw her as the 968 00:41:05,150 --> 00:41:03,160 consummate insider Trump it's not the 969 00:41:07,680 --> 00:41:05,160 same type of insider and I thought I 970 00:41:09,060 --> 00:41:07,690 said you're still more likely to win get 971 00:41:11,460 --> 00:41:09,070 him getting a lottery ticket than 972 00:41:13,650 --> 00:41:11,470 waiting for a Trump disclosure and I 973 00:41:16,080 --> 00:41:13,660 think even more strongly that now but I 974 00:41:20,070 --> 00:41:16,090 thought actually this man's personality 975 00:41:21,780 --> 00:41:20,080 is such that he actually might do a 3 976 00:41:23,460 --> 00:41:21,790 a.m. tweet he do you say you could just 977 00:41:26,430 --> 00:41:23,470 imagine him saying something like 978 00:41:29,670 --> 00:41:26,440 everyone knows UFOs are real oh and the 979 00:41:31,860 --> 00:41:29,680 funny thing about Trump is like could 980 00:41:34,560 --> 00:41:31,870 you imagine unlike with Obama like if a 981 00:41:36,660 --> 00:41:34,570 bomb were to do a disclosure of UFOs had 982 00:41:39,180 --> 00:41:36,670 he done so I think there would have been 983 00:41:41,130 --> 00:41:39,190 a much higher like people would have 984 00:41:44,250 --> 00:41:41,140 been like oh my god I can't believe it 985 00:41:45,810 --> 00:41:44,260 Trump who's gonna believe him like think 986 00:41:48,630 --> 00:41:45,820 there's a lot of folks who would just 987 00:41:51,320 --> 00:41:48,640 say this man is you know certifiably 988 00:41:56,220 --> 00:41:51,330 insane and people think that all ready 989 00:41:57,570 --> 00:41:56,230 to do a disclosure of UFOs seriously 990 00:42:02,130 --> 00:41:57,580 this would be a real problem I don't I 991 00:42:04,860 --> 00:42:02,140 think I think would be very difficult 992 00:42:06,480 --> 00:42:04,870 for him and when I when I published this 993 00:42:10,650 --> 00:42:06,490 booklet it's about a hundred pages long 994 00:42:12,420 --> 00:42:10,660 it's just under you know it was already 995 00:42:14,610 --> 00:42:12,430 evident to me I wrote I published it in 996 00:42:19,020 --> 00:42:14,620 March about a month ago it was already 997 00:42:21,060 --> 00:42:19,030 clear that he was losing his if it was a 998 00:42:22,920 --> 00:42:21,070 battle with the deep state he was losing 999 00:42:26,130 --> 00:42:22,930 it even by mid March like it was obvious 1000 00:42:28,200 --> 00:42:26,140 to me that he was on the he'd been out 1001 00:42:30,540 --> 00:42:28,210 outmaneuvered completely outmaneuvered 1002 00:42:31,620 --> 00:42:30,550 so that any reform of the intelligence 1003 00:42:33,690 --> 00:42:31,630 community was not going to happen 1004 00:42:35,340 --> 00:42:33,700 because they took out Michael Flynn like 1005 00:42:36,150 --> 00:42:35,350 immediately he was the only person who 1006 00:42:37,980 --> 00:42:36,160 could have done it 1007 00:42:41,130 --> 00:42:37,990 of the intelligence community he was the 1008 00:42:44,640 --> 00:42:41,140 first one out in that kind of a specious 1009 00:42:46,290 --> 00:42:44,650 Russia thing there so all of all the 1010 00:42:47,820 --> 00:42:46,300 loyal people around him he's basically 1011 00:42:49,470 --> 00:42:47,830 surrounded by council on foreign 1012 00:42:51,300 --> 00:42:49,480 relations people globalists that's 1013 00:42:53,730 --> 00:42:51,310 they've taken over they've got him 1014 00:43:01,770 --> 00:42:53,740 so by mid-march it was evident to me 1015 00:43:03,240 --> 00:43:01,780 that it's unlikely but nonetheless we're 1016 00:43:06,180 --> 00:43:03,250 in a situation where there's a kind of 1017 00:43:08,040 --> 00:43:06,190 covert war going on a war of leaks for 1018 00:43:11,610 --> 00:43:08,050 example all of these leaks that we're 1019 00:43:14,760 --> 00:43:11,620 seeing against and against Trump and 1020 00:43:17,880 --> 00:43:14,770 against other people are signs that the 1021 00:43:21,750 --> 00:43:17,890 intelligence community is fighting 1022 00:43:23,430 --> 00:43:21,760 itself so in that type of a situation 1023 00:43:26,460 --> 00:43:23,440 it just seemed me there's enough 1024 00:43:30,300 --> 00:43:26,470 instability that there could be some 1025 00:43:31,260 --> 00:43:30,310 accidental or who knows what someone 1026 00:43:33,630 --> 00:43:31,270 might say what the heck just an 1027 00:43:35,750 --> 00:43:33,640 intentional putting this information out 1028 00:43:40,550 --> 00:43:35,760 there I don't think that that's likely 1029 00:43:43,770 --> 00:43:40,560 but but I will say in my own observation 1030 00:43:46,340 --> 00:43:43,780 over political history over the past 50 1031 00:43:50,760 --> 00:43:46,350 plus years during times of great 1032 00:43:53,970 --> 00:43:50,770 instability in many nations it can 1033 00:43:55,950 --> 00:43:53,980 happen that UFO data leaks out and comes 1034 00:43:58,770 --> 00:43:55,960 out particularly when there's regime 1035 00:44:00,270 --> 00:43:58,780 changed and when Mao died in China this 1036 00:44:02,340 --> 00:44:00,280 happened over there when the Soviet 1037 00:44:04,380 --> 00:44:02,350 Union broke apart it happened very much 1038 00:44:05,940 --> 00:44:04,390 so there after Watergate in our own 1039 00:44:08,010 --> 00:44:05,950 society we strengthen our Freedom of 1040 00:44:10,230 --> 00:44:08,020 Information Act which led to a great 1041 00:44:12,570 --> 00:44:10,240 release of UFO information in Spain 1042 00:44:14,880 --> 00:44:12,580 after the dictator Franco died in the 1043 00:44:17,760 --> 00:44:14,890 70s it led to a release of UFO data 1044 00:44:20,550 --> 00:44:17,770 there so when there's instability in the 1045 00:44:23,600 --> 00:44:20,560 system things come out and that includes 1046 00:44:25,710 --> 00:44:23,610 UFO data we are in a very unstable 1047 00:44:29,610 --> 00:44:25,720 political situation here in the United 1048 00:44:32,220 --> 00:44:29,620 States and so for that reason I could 1049 00:44:34,980 --> 00:44:32,230 see something unexpected something 1050 00:44:38,180 --> 00:44:34,990 accidental happening I'm not I don't say 1051 00:44:40,590 --> 00:44:38,190 bet on it I I don't think there's ever a 1052 00:44:41,640 --> 00:44:40,600 year where it's a good bet but there are 1053 00:44:42,530 --> 00:44:41,650 some years where it might be better than 1054 00:44:45,930 --> 00:44:42,540 others 1055 00:44:48,690 --> 00:44:45,940 absolutely the harder you shake the more 1056 00:44:50,339 --> 00:44:48,700 that's going to come out but who knows 1057 00:44:52,140 --> 00:44:50,349 what's gonna happen the thing that I try 1058 00:44:55,440 --> 00:44:52,150 to look at in this booklet of mine is 1059 00:44:57,410 --> 00:44:55,450 the international situation you know 1060 00:45:00,089 --> 00:44:57,420 people for years what would ask me well 1061 00:45:01,140 --> 00:45:00,099 sure there's a UFO cover-up in the 1062 00:45:02,970 --> 00:45:01,150 United States but what about other 1063 00:45:04,500 --> 00:45:02,980 countries what about what about Britain 1064 00:45:06,750 --> 00:45:04,510 what about Brazil what about Russia what 1065 00:45:09,839 --> 00:45:06,760 about India and it's true you know we're 1066 00:45:12,060 --> 00:45:09,849 in a big world so what is it about these 1067 00:45:15,089 --> 00:45:12,070 other nations that allows for this 1068 00:45:19,290 --> 00:45:15,099 phenomenon to be secret and I really do 1069 00:45:21,900 --> 00:45:19,300 try in this booklet to deal with that 1070 00:45:26,550 --> 00:45:21,910 issue and one of the things that I point 1071 00:45:27,780 --> 00:45:26,560 out is excuse me is that you know 1072 00:45:29,010 --> 00:45:27,790 although the United States isn't the 1073 00:45:32,069 --> 00:45:29,020 only nation and the world it is still 1074 00:45:37,650 --> 00:45:32,079 the dominant nation in the world by far 1075 00:45:41,609 --> 00:45:37,660 and there are only a handful of nations 1076 00:45:44,670 --> 00:45:41,619 that are outside of predominant 1077 00:45:47,190 --> 00:45:44,680 preeminent US influence alright there's 1078 00:45:48,630 --> 00:45:47,200 only a few so the u.s. runs all of the 1079 00:45:52,440 --> 00:45:48,640 NATO countries which are very powerful 1080 00:45:56,190 --> 00:45:52,450 the US has dominant influence over most 1081 00:46:00,180 --> 00:45:56,200 of Central and South America the US has 1082 00:46:03,120 --> 00:46:00,190 a very strong influence over most of the 1083 00:46:05,839 --> 00:46:03,130 significant nations in the Far East 1084 00:46:10,020 --> 00:46:05,849 we're talking Japan South Korea 1085 00:46:14,400 --> 00:46:10,030 Southeast Asia Australia obviously there 1086 00:46:16,800 --> 00:46:14,410 are only a few significant nations that 1087 00:46:17,579 --> 00:46:16,810 are still outside US control we're 1088 00:46:19,349 --> 00:46:17,589 talking Russia 1089 00:46:25,079 --> 00:46:19,359 first and foremost China those two big 1090 00:46:27,210 --> 00:46:25,089 ones Iran North Korea Syria although 1091 00:46:30,120 --> 00:46:27,220 Syria is you know the whole point is to 1092 00:46:32,849 --> 00:46:30,130 make Syria cave but those those are some 1093 00:46:35,910 --> 00:46:32,859 of the the key nations and really of 1094 00:46:40,349 --> 00:46:35,920 those don't the two big ones obviously 1095 00:46:42,059 --> 00:46:40,359 are Russia and China because of the 200 1096 00:46:44,069 --> 00:46:42,069 or so and sovereign nations that exist 1097 00:46:47,130 --> 00:46:44,079 on this planet only only a handful maybe 1098 00:46:49,440 --> 00:46:47,140 maybe 20 have a military intelligence 1099 00:46:53,640 --> 00:46:49,450 community that's significant enough that 1100 00:46:57,569 --> 00:46:53,650 would allow them to have a real 1101 00:46:59,370 --> 00:46:57,579 capability in dealing with UFO data in a 1102 00:47:02,550 --> 00:46:59,380 significant way this is my opinion I 1103 00:47:05,730 --> 00:47:02,560 mean most nations you know 90% of global 1104 00:47:09,810 --> 00:47:05,740 military spending is wrapped up with the 1105 00:47:12,000 --> 00:47:09,820 top 15 20 nations mm-hmm and so it's 1106 00:47:13,860 --> 00:47:12,010 those nations that really we have to 1107 00:47:15,570 --> 00:47:13,870 look at in terms of UFO secrecy the 1108 00:47:16,890 --> 00:47:15,580 other nations I think I don't really 1109 00:47:19,890 --> 00:47:16,900 think they have enough knowledge or data 1110 00:47:21,480 --> 00:47:19,900 or ability to have any like they 1111 00:47:24,030 --> 00:47:21,490 wouldn't be able to disclose the UFO 1112 00:47:28,740 --> 00:47:24,040 reality and of the top 20 the u.s. 1113 00:47:31,290 --> 00:47:28,750 controls you know 17 18 of them only 1114 00:47:32,610 --> 00:47:31,300 Russia and China are not in there so we 1115 00:47:34,260 --> 00:47:32,620 really are looking at Russia and China 1116 00:47:37,380 --> 00:47:34,270 for the international scene as far as 1117 00:47:39,210 --> 00:47:37,390 the wild cards go and I see them as very 1118 00:47:41,760 --> 00:47:39,220 conservative generally speaking they're 1119 00:47:43,620 --> 00:47:41,770 conservative nations they don't want 1120 00:47:45,480 --> 00:47:43,630 they're not interested in shaking things 1121 00:47:48,510 --> 00:47:45,490 up in a dramatic way and plus they're 1122 00:47:52,230 --> 00:47:48,520 both heavily dependent on hydrocarbons 1123 00:47:54,780 --> 00:47:52,240 gas and oil to me I've looked at UFO 1124 00:47:57,330 --> 00:47:54,790 disclosure always is something that has 1125 00:48:00,060 --> 00:47:57,340 energy implications I feel that it has 1126 00:48:04,920 --> 00:48:00,070 to because once an acknowledgement of 1127 00:48:07,140 --> 00:48:04,930 UFOs is made how long will it take 1128 00:48:09,720 --> 00:48:07,150 people to realize oh wow so wait a 1129 00:48:12,920 --> 00:48:09,730 minute if they're real I assume they're 1130 00:48:15,180 --> 00:48:12,930 not using high-octane petroleum right 1131 00:48:17,940 --> 00:48:15,190 whatever it is it's better than what 1132 00:48:20,880 --> 00:48:17,950 we're using and so implicit in the UFO 1133 00:48:22,800 --> 00:48:20,890 disclosure I've always felt is a post 1134 00:48:24,720 --> 00:48:22,810 petroleum society and that's I can't 1135 00:48:28,110 --> 00:48:24,730 think of anything more revolutionary in 1136 00:48:29,790 --> 00:48:28,120 our infrastructure than that and I don't 1137 00:48:32,790 --> 00:48:29,800 think Russia and China are any more 1138 00:48:34,410 --> 00:48:32,800 interested in rocking that boat than the 1139 00:48:38,610 --> 00:48:34,420 US power structure right at least right 1140 00:48:42,240 --> 00:48:38,620 now so I see a great deal of stability 1141 00:48:43,500 --> 00:48:42,250 coming from those countries although I 1142 00:48:44,940 --> 00:48:43,510 would actually if there was to be a 1143 00:48:46,710 --> 00:48:44,950 disclosure I would probably almost 1144 00:48:50,520 --> 00:48:46,720 prefer that the Chinese or Russians do 1145 00:48:52,350 --> 00:48:50,530 it ahead of the Americans right because 1146 00:48:54,480 --> 00:48:52,360 I think the Americans are just theirs 1147 00:48:56,300 --> 00:48:54,490 they've been lying for so long and 1148 00:48:58,920 --> 00:48:56,310 they've been running this for so long 1149 00:49:00,510 --> 00:48:58,930 we've got to get over the idea I mean 1150 00:49:03,150 --> 00:49:00,520 I'm an American I love America I study 1151 00:49:05,040 --> 00:49:03,160 American history every day but America 1152 00:49:07,980 --> 00:49:05,050 is not not the good guy in this battle 1153 00:49:12,060 --> 00:49:07,990 right and you know capitalization is 1154 00:49:12,980 --> 00:49:12,070 always an issue with this even if you 1155 00:49:15,230 --> 00:49:12,990 know the 1156 00:49:18,530 --> 00:49:15,240 reality of UFOs were to be given to the 1157 00:49:20,870 --> 00:49:18,540 public and then that you know let's say 1158 00:49:24,130 --> 00:49:20,880 free energy or whatever whatever the 1159 00:49:27,650 --> 00:49:24,140 hell these things use this propulsion 1160 00:49:29,870 --> 00:49:27,660 you know how how long will it take for 1161 00:49:33,109 --> 00:49:29,880 the government which is a very broad 1162 00:49:34,760 --> 00:49:33,119 term to uh control and contain that to 1163 00:49:38,960 --> 00:49:34,770 capitalize off of it you know what I 1164 00:49:42,650 --> 00:49:38,970 mean from crude oil to free energy I'm 1165 00:49:45,920 --> 00:49:42,660 sure there's some sort of plan or agenda 1166 00:49:48,920 --> 00:49:45,930 in action to when if and when that day 1167 00:49:51,380 --> 00:49:48,930 comes say our oil resources completely 1168 00:49:54,200 --> 00:49:51,390 deplete how will they make the most 1169 00:49:55,190 --> 00:49:54,210 money off of this new form of energy you 1170 00:49:56,240 --> 00:49:55,200 let's stay with this thought for a 1171 00:49:58,160 --> 00:49:56,250 minute it's really an interesting 1172 00:49:59,630 --> 00:49:58,170 thought so there's monetizing the 1173 00:50:02,060 --> 00:49:59,640 technology which I agree with you 1174 00:50:05,720 --> 00:50:02,070 completely has got to be key and then 1175 00:50:08,750 --> 00:50:05,730 the other concern so what will it as far 1176 00:50:10,370 --> 00:50:08,760 as monetizing I mean I wonder if it's 1177 00:50:14,540 --> 00:50:10,380 possible that they haven't figured out a 1178 00:50:16,640 --> 00:50:14,550 an accurate good way to monetize this so 1179 00:50:18,950 --> 00:50:16,650 and that might be the real problem for 1180 00:50:20,780 --> 00:50:18,960 example you know there are stories and 1181 00:50:22,790 --> 00:50:20,790 rumors and I don't really know if this 1182 00:50:27,550 --> 00:50:22,800 is the truth but you know back when 1183 00:50:31,910 --> 00:50:27,560 Tesla was working on his his energy 1184 00:50:35,180 --> 00:50:31,920 transmitter at Wycliffe and Wardenclyffe 1185 00:50:40,640 --> 00:50:35,190 anything right and it and and JP Morgan 1186 00:50:42,770 --> 00:50:40,650 was financing him and and Tesla's lab 1187 00:50:44,090 --> 00:50:42,780 was burned down and everyone suspected - 1188 00:50:46,120 --> 00:50:44,100 JP Morgan had a hand in it probably 1189 00:50:48,950 --> 00:50:46,130 probably did Morgan was a devious 1190 00:50:50,660 --> 00:50:48,960 canasta of the universe in his day and 1191 00:50:51,950 --> 00:50:50,670 the real creator by the way of the 1192 00:50:53,720 --> 00:50:51,960 modern military industrial complex 1193 00:50:57,020 --> 00:50:53,730 incidentally he did it during World War 1194 00:51:01,880 --> 00:50:57,030 one and he he ran the whole thing but 1195 00:51:03,500 --> 00:51:01,890 the point is Morgan could very well have 1196 00:51:05,260 --> 00:51:03,510 have destroyed Tesla's work because he 1197 00:51:07,310 --> 00:51:05,270 couldn't see how to monetize it I mean 1198 00:51:10,010 --> 00:51:07,320 you know every we're all working off of 1199 00:51:13,490 --> 00:51:10,020 oil and gas back then especially oil so 1200 00:51:16,250 --> 00:51:13,500 and today how would you monetize free 1201 00:51:19,910 --> 00:51:16,260 energy if it's if it's literally or 1202 00:51:22,420 --> 00:51:19,920 nearly literally free you know to give 1203 00:51:24,650 --> 00:51:22,430 people a tremendous amount of energy 1204 00:51:26,450 --> 00:51:24,660 you're not gonna make as much money off 1205 00:51:28,220 --> 00:51:26,460 of it you just won't 1206 00:51:30,970 --> 00:51:28,230 and so that's a real problem and we are 1207 00:51:34,130 --> 00:51:30,980 living in a world that is dominated by 1208 00:51:36,200 --> 00:51:34,140 the extraction of hydrocarbons from the 1209 00:51:38,839 --> 00:51:36,210 ground and that's the physical control 1210 00:51:41,540 --> 00:51:38,849 over the oil and natural gas is what 1211 00:51:44,210 --> 00:51:41,550 dominates u.s. policy that is what it is 1212 00:51:47,390 --> 00:51:44,220 all about it's 98 99 percent of US 1213 00:51:50,420 --> 00:51:47,400 policy is control over oil and natural 1214 00:51:51,950 --> 00:51:50,430 gas and not just physical oil but the 1215 00:51:53,630 --> 00:51:51,960 sale of oil through Petro dollars the 1216 00:51:56,599 --> 00:51:53,640 whole petro dollar system is the 1217 00:51:58,220 --> 00:51:56,609 foundation of US policy that is forcing 1218 00:52:02,000 --> 00:51:58,230 oil-producing regions to sell their oil 1219 00:52:03,380 --> 00:52:02,010 in u.s. dollars the petro dollar system 1220 00:52:07,310 --> 00:52:03,390 is starting to break down Russia and 1221 00:52:08,930 --> 00:52:07,320 China are breaking it down Saddam broke 1222 00:52:12,320 --> 00:52:08,940 out of it in 2000 and that's why the 1223 00:52:15,020 --> 00:52:12,330 u.s. invaded Iraq back then but the 1224 00:52:18,500 --> 00:52:15,030 system is inevitably breaking but but 1225 00:52:20,750 --> 00:52:18,510 with free energy you know monetizing 1226 00:52:21,950 --> 00:52:20,760 this oil and gas would be I'm not excuse 1227 00:52:23,990 --> 00:52:21,960 me monetizing the new form of energy 1228 00:52:26,510 --> 00:52:24,000 would be very problematic and then the 1229 00:52:30,250 --> 00:52:26,520 other aspect of free energy that might 1230 00:52:33,349 --> 00:52:30,260 be possibly even more problematic is 1231 00:52:37,300 --> 00:52:33,359 energy gives you and to me and all the 1232 00:52:40,040 --> 00:52:37,310 listeners a tremendous amount of power 1233 00:52:44,540 --> 00:52:40,050 figuratively and literally if we had a 1234 00:52:46,510 --> 00:52:44,550 free energy device right not only could 1235 00:52:48,770 --> 00:52:46,520 you be independent of your electrical 1236 00:52:52,370 --> 00:52:48,780 you know you go off the grid essentially 1237 00:52:56,829 --> 00:52:52,380 you wouldn't you don't need your utility 1238 00:52:58,579 --> 00:52:56,839 company and you're not dependent on that 1239 00:53:01,700 --> 00:52:58,589 critically important thing for your 1240 00:53:04,120 --> 00:53:01,710 survival it would be possible if someone 1241 00:53:06,500 --> 00:53:04,130 had an independent source of energy 1242 00:53:08,540 --> 00:53:06,510 literally to go off the grid and to go 1243 00:53:09,859 --> 00:53:08,550 out into the desert somewhere and you 1244 00:53:11,270 --> 00:53:09,869 could create your own house and you 1245 00:53:15,200 --> 00:53:11,280 could create your own energy system you 1246 00:53:17,480 --> 00:53:15,210 could you could you know synthesize your 1247 00:53:20,050 --> 00:53:17,490 own water through from the air I mean 1248 00:53:22,579 --> 00:53:20,060 with energy everything is solvable 1249 00:53:24,710 --> 00:53:22,589 everything is fixable with sufficient 1250 00:53:27,650 --> 00:53:24,720 energy and so what that does is it gives 1251 00:53:30,170 --> 00:53:27,660 people freedom a lot of freedom from the 1252 00:53:32,300 --> 00:53:30,180 system from Authority and I've got to 1253 00:53:34,160 --> 00:53:32,310 assume people at the top are not 1254 00:53:38,510 --> 00:53:34,170 interested the other problem with free 1255 00:53:39,890 --> 00:53:38,520 energy is that there is a danger human 1256 00:53:40,260 --> 00:53:39,900 beings are dangerous we're not nice 1257 00:53:45,600 --> 00:53:40,270 people 1258 00:53:48,330 --> 00:53:45,610 individually you and I on a good day 1259 00:53:52,830 --> 00:53:48,340 we're nice but overall if you give 1260 00:53:54,810 --> 00:53:52,840 people infinite freedom we often become 1261 00:53:58,680 --> 00:53:54,820 very very dangerous and very very awful 1262 00:54:00,090 --> 00:53:58,690 yeah and so what if with this free 1263 00:54:01,680 --> 00:54:00,100 energy you not only could you heat your 1264 00:54:04,170 --> 00:54:01,690 house forever for free but you can make 1265 00:54:06,120 --> 00:54:04,180 a really nifty bomb 1266 00:54:08,390 --> 00:54:06,130 what if we're using something like 1267 00:54:11,370 --> 00:54:08,400 zero-point energy if that's the solution 1268 00:54:13,020 --> 00:54:11,380 you you know I remember reading a 1269 00:54:17,250 --> 00:54:13,030 statement by doctor how put off whoo I 1270 00:54:18,660 --> 00:54:17,260 know how physicist he was very much in 1271 00:54:21,360 --> 00:54:18,670 the forefront of zero-point energy 1272 00:54:23,280 --> 00:54:21,370 research and he once speculated you know 1273 00:54:24,390 --> 00:54:23,290 what if there's enough energy and his 1274 00:54:27,330 --> 00:54:24,400 cup of coffee to blow up half the 1275 00:54:29,540 --> 00:54:27,340 Pacific Ocean and and he wasn't joking 1276 00:54:32,100 --> 00:54:29,550 like he doesn't know that there is but 1277 00:54:33,390 --> 00:54:32,110 theoretically it could be the amount of 1278 00:54:35,310 --> 00:54:33,400 energy in zero point could be 1279 00:54:38,670 --> 00:54:35,320 insignificant or it could be 1280 00:54:42,120 --> 00:54:38,680 unbelievably vast and what if a free 1281 00:54:43,920 --> 00:54:42,130 energy solution allows for tremendous 1282 00:54:47,100 --> 00:54:43,930 extraction of energy or production of 1283 00:54:49,710 --> 00:54:47,110 energy that would be very destructive 1284 00:54:51,810 --> 00:54:49,720 and so now we're letting loose genie out 1285 00:54:55,290 --> 00:54:51,820 of the bottle that could be a very 1286 00:54:56,700 --> 00:54:55,300 dangerous one and so this is one one 1287 00:54:58,680 --> 00:54:56,710 area where I might have sympathy right 1288 00:55:00,120 --> 00:54:58,690 with the secret keepers I mean anyone 1289 00:55:01,080 --> 00:55:00,130 thinking the stereo would think oh my 1290 00:55:04,650 --> 00:55:01,090 god 1291 00:55:08,940 --> 00:55:04,660 the problem is hey we don't know the 1292 00:55:14,240 --> 00:55:08,950 energy applications the I do know that 1293 00:55:21,210 --> 00:55:18,510 thing for our society that for those ID 1294 00:55:23,430 --> 00:55:21,220 lists left who believe in freedom and 1295 00:55:24,810 --> 00:55:23,440 liberty and freedom of inquiry it's been 1296 00:55:27,560 --> 00:55:24,820 very dangerous for that it's been very 1297 00:55:29,880 --> 00:55:27,570 destructive and we moved into a kind of 1298 00:55:32,160 --> 00:55:29,890 neo-fascist oligarchy I don't how else 1299 00:55:34,530 --> 00:55:32,170 to call it so for those things I'm not a 1300 00:55:37,260 --> 00:55:34,540 fan of that and I believe in in the 1301 00:55:40,080 --> 00:55:37,270 sunshine of truth so for that reason I 1302 00:55:42,090 --> 00:55:40,090 always believe in disclosure I have to 1303 00:55:44,100 --> 00:55:42,100 believe in the truth because if I don't 1304 00:55:45,710 --> 00:55:44,110 I can't believe in the truth and there's 1305 00:55:48,080 --> 00:55:45,720 nothing else really for me to believe in 1306 00:55:51,150 --> 00:55:48,090 and I think that it's still the most 1307 00:55:52,910 --> 00:55:51,160 proper foundation for a stable Society 1308 00:55:55,280 --> 00:55:52,920 as truth not falsehood 1309 00:55:58,370 --> 00:55:55,290 but if the truth is that we can't 1310 00:56:00,170 --> 00:55:58,380 control this energy then then our world 1311 00:56:02,360 --> 00:56:00,180 will have to find out ways of creating 1312 00:56:08,120 --> 00:56:02,370 the control and are we moving them 1313 00:56:09,530 --> 00:56:08,130 toward a completely inclusive system 1314 00:56:13,160 --> 00:56:09,540 where everyone is monitored where 1315 00:56:14,750 --> 00:56:13,170 everything is being checked by a you 1316 00:56:16,550 --> 00:56:14,760 know centralized artificial intelligence 1317 00:56:20,240 --> 00:56:16,560 for example to make sure that no one's 1318 00:56:22,370 --> 00:56:20,250 building the world's biggest bomb right 1319 00:56:24,140 --> 00:56:22,380 yeah I mean I I don't know I don't know 1320 00:56:27,110 --> 00:56:24,150 what the solution is we're moving into a 1321 00:56:30,890 --> 00:56:27,120 very you know the UFO subject is one of 1322 00:56:34,460 --> 00:56:30,900 several key issues that are going to 1323 00:56:36,200 --> 00:56:34,470 drive our future it's only one of them 1324 00:56:39,380 --> 00:56:36,210 it's a big one but it's not the only one 1325 00:56:40,910 --> 00:56:39,390 and we're moving into a a very very 1326 00:56:42,680 --> 00:56:40,920 different world the next 20 years I 1327 00:56:43,870 --> 00:56:42,690 don't even know who could predict what 1328 00:56:46,700 --> 00:56:43,880 our world is gonna look like in 20 years 1329 00:56:49,370 --> 00:56:46,710 right it's it's never been more 1330 00:56:51,170 --> 00:56:49,380 uncertain I feel and that's I there 1331 00:56:54,440 --> 00:56:51,180 going to be an extremely exciting time 1332 00:56:56,960 --> 00:56:54,450 to live in or scary or exciting or all 1333 00:57:00,380 --> 00:56:56,970 the above you know some ways I'm I agree 1334 00:57:01,700 --> 00:57:00,390 one of the things that I did that I've 1335 00:57:03,950 --> 00:57:01,710 been thinking through is this whole 1336 00:57:07,010 --> 00:57:03,960 disclosure scenarios different scenarios 1337 00:57:13,010 --> 00:57:07,020 of disclosure right when I wrote it 1338 00:57:15,380 --> 00:57:13,020 after disclosure six years ago seven Wow 1339 00:57:17,780 --> 00:57:15,390 we really had one fundamental disclosure 1340 00:57:19,580 --> 00:57:17,790 scenario and it's what I would now call 1341 00:57:23,780 --> 00:57:19,590 premature disclosure so in other words 1342 00:57:26,240 --> 00:57:23,790 something accidental happens a citing a 1343 00:57:30,260 --> 00:57:26,250 leak something unexpected because we're 1344 00:57:32,510 --> 00:57:30,270 in a very tumultuous era where things 1345 00:57:34,550 --> 00:57:32,520 are unexpected and I've often said 1346 00:57:37,790 --> 00:57:34,560 disclosure is impossible but inevitable 1347 00:57:41,900 --> 00:57:37,800 like that that paradox and that is 1348 00:57:43,220 --> 00:57:41,910 indeed a real possible way that the 1349 00:57:45,970 --> 00:57:43,230 disclosure will happen it won't be a 1350 00:57:49,160 --> 00:57:45,980 plan but it will happen as a result of 1351 00:57:50,810 --> 00:57:49,170 some accident you know WikiLeaks or 1352 00:57:52,400 --> 00:57:50,820 sighting or something like that but 1353 00:57:55,550 --> 00:57:52,410 there are other scenarios of disclosure 1354 00:57:58,460 --> 00:57:55,560 and actually it occurred to me after we 1355 00:58:00,290 --> 00:57:58,470 wrote after disclosure that maybe the 1356 00:58:01,610 --> 00:58:00,300 the leading candidate isn't that one but 1357 00:58:05,000 --> 00:58:01,620 rather a kind of fascist form of 1358 00:58:06,200 --> 00:58:05,010 disclosure in other words we're moving 1359 00:58:08,060 --> 00:58:06,210 toward were moving 1360 00:58:09,950 --> 00:58:08,070 into towards some version of a 1361 00:58:13,070 --> 00:58:09,960 neo-fascism I said I say neo-fascism 1362 00:58:15,950 --> 00:58:13,080 because fascism in 2017 is not gonna 1363 00:58:17,510 --> 00:58:15,960 look like 1937 right with Hitler's brown 1364 00:58:19,880 --> 00:58:17,520 shirts I mean nothing's ever the same in 1365 00:58:25,370 --> 00:58:19,890 history we're in a different era but but 1366 00:58:29,030 --> 00:58:25,380 a new iteration of version and it seems 1367 00:58:30,500 --> 00:58:29,040 to me that once complete control over 1368 00:58:33,260 --> 00:58:30,510 the spin over the propaganda system 1369 00:58:34,520 --> 00:58:33,270 total control is assured then maybe we 1370 00:58:36,460 --> 00:58:34,530 might be moving into a system where 1371 00:58:40,010 --> 00:58:36,470 there'll be a disclosure of some sort 1372 00:58:42,740 --> 00:58:40,020 but I don't think that that era has 1373 00:58:44,060 --> 00:58:42,750 arised arisen yet where we've got where 1374 00:58:45,290 --> 00:58:44,070 there's total control over the span 1375 00:58:48,200 --> 00:58:45,300 there's still enough independence out 1376 00:58:49,910 --> 00:58:48,210 there so if there's a disclosure it's 1377 00:58:52,849 --> 00:58:49,920 not clear to me that the government or 1378 00:58:54,500 --> 00:58:52,859 the intelligence community would be able 1379 00:58:57,230 --> 00:58:54,510 to maintain full control over the spin 1380 00:58:59,599 --> 00:58:57,240 they control can control spin from so 1381 00:59:01,730 --> 00:58:59,609 much and they might for this but this is 1382 00:59:03,530 --> 00:59:01,740 a big topic this is a tough one 1383 00:59:05,900 --> 00:59:03,540 so I think once they get to a point 1384 00:59:07,670 --> 00:59:05,910 where they're convinced that yes we 1385 00:59:10,070 --> 00:59:07,680 controlled the news we're surveilling 1386 00:59:11,420 --> 00:59:10,080 people 24/7 we've got everyone ship we 1387 00:59:12,770 --> 00:59:11,430 got everyone drugged we've got everyone 1388 00:59:15,560 --> 00:59:12,780 basically zoned out when watching 1389 00:59:16,700 --> 00:59:15,570 Dancing with the Stars now we can we can 1390 00:59:17,660 --> 00:59:16,710 roll this out because no one knows 1391 00:59:20,270 --> 00:59:17,670 anything anymore 1392 00:59:22,220 --> 00:59:20,280 I mean we've erased and really all you 1393 00:59:23,540 --> 00:59:22,230 have to do is look around you and it's 1394 00:59:26,630 --> 00:59:23,550 it's distressing to me 1395 00:59:28,370 --> 00:59:26,640 I see so few people with even the most 1396 00:59:33,859 --> 00:59:28,380 bare-bones understanding of history and 1397 00:59:36,710 --> 00:59:33,869 politics it's I don't know if it was any 1398 00:59:39,950 --> 00:59:36,720 better when I was a younger guy but I 1399 00:59:42,109 --> 00:59:39,960 think it was better um I I don't know 1400 00:59:44,960 --> 00:59:42,119 there there are there's a few people 1401 00:59:47,839 --> 00:59:44,970 nowadays who are kind of awake mm-hmm 1402 00:59:50,720 --> 00:59:47,849 but there's an enormous mass of people 1403 00:59:52,609 --> 00:59:50,730 who I just think are as asleep at the 1404 00:59:54,740 --> 00:59:52,619 switch as ever maybe maybe I don't know 1405 00:59:55,910 --> 00:59:54,750 maybe I'm wrong but anyway I think we're 1406 00:59:57,349 --> 00:59:55,920 moving toward a fascist kind of 1407 00:59:59,200 --> 00:59:57,359 disclosure I think that's the preferred 1408 01:00:02,240 --> 00:59:59,210 method of disclosure but there's other 1409 01:00:04,570 --> 01:00:02,250 there's other ways there's you know an 1410 01:00:07,130 --> 01:00:04,580 accident can happen a leak can happen or 1411 01:00:10,040 --> 01:00:07,140 best-case scenario the people themselves 1412 01:00:11,690 --> 01:00:10,050 we can drive this process and I I think 1413 01:00:13,790 --> 01:00:11,700 that's the healthiest way because it 1414 01:00:16,700 --> 01:00:13,800 helps us to reclaim our power help 1415 01:00:18,349 --> 01:00:16,710 reclaim the helplessness to get rid of 1416 01:00:18,870 --> 01:00:18,359 that which has been encroaching on our 1417 01:00:22,140 --> 01:00:18,880 lives 1418 01:00:24,390 --> 01:00:22,150 has generation or more right well you 1419 01:00:27,029 --> 01:00:24,400 know rich I do have to bring this up the 1420 01:00:30,120 --> 01:00:27,039 black sheep in ufology at this moment in 1421 01:00:33,240 --> 01:00:30,130 terms of disclosure and that's Tom 1422 01:00:36,390 --> 01:00:33,250 DeLonge what well indeed what do you 1423 01:00:38,279 --> 01:00:36,400 make of this entire thing going on is 1424 01:00:39,920 --> 01:00:38,289 this guy for real 1425 01:00:43,170 --> 01:00:39,930 it's he actually being fed 1426 01:00:45,059 --> 01:00:43,180 disinformation information probably a 1427 01:00:46,769 --> 01:00:45,069 mixture both or is this all complete 1428 01:00:49,349 --> 01:00:46,779 [\h__\h] like what what do you make of 1429 01:00:52,349 --> 01:00:49,359 this uh yeah that's a very good question 1430 01:00:55,220 --> 01:00:52,359 I met I met Tom to launch once back in 1431 01:00:57,720 --> 01:00:55,230 2014 he was I liked him you know he's 1432 01:01:00,420 --> 01:00:57,730 for anyone who's living in a cave he's 1433 01:01:02,430 --> 01:01:00,430 the head lead singer blink-182 my 1434 01:01:06,859 --> 01:01:02,440 daughter who's now 18 you know when she 1435 01:01:10,170 --> 01:01:06,869 was a few years ago she loved Blanco and 1436 01:01:13,829 --> 01:01:10,180 and so he's he's into UFOs I met him in 1437 01:01:16,109 --> 01:01:13,839 2014 he was really into it then this was 1438 01:01:22,710 --> 01:01:16,119 before he wrote his book secret machines 1439 01:01:25,769 --> 01:01:22,720 and I am I'm very cautious I'm very I 1440 01:01:27,839 --> 01:01:25,779 actually I don't I don't take what he's 1441 01:01:30,870 --> 01:01:27,849 saying at face value I haven't from the 1442 01:01:32,910 --> 01:01:30,880 beginning and I and I will not it seems 1443 01:01:34,829 --> 01:01:32,920 to me it's way too convenient the 1444 01:01:37,529 --> 01:01:34,839 leakers coming to him have convinced him 1445 01:01:39,299 --> 01:01:37,539 that they're the white hats that the 1446 01:01:40,799 --> 01:01:39,309 secrecy exists for a good reason and he 1447 01:01:42,420 --> 01:01:40,809 has said this and that they're 1448 01:01:44,999 --> 01:01:42,430 protecting us they're they're working on 1449 01:01:49,410 --> 01:01:45,009 our behalf and I just think that that's 1450 01:01:51,390 --> 01:01:49,420 a very self-serving way to promote the 1451 01:01:54,569 --> 01:01:51,400 information when I look at the history 1452 01:01:57,440 --> 01:01:54,579 of secrecy I do not see that I see 1453 01:02:00,420 --> 01:01:57,450 secrecy as a very self-serving 1454 01:02:04,650 --> 01:02:00,430 profit-driven control driven type of 1455 01:02:07,400 --> 01:02:04,660 situation where there may very well be 1456 01:02:10,380 --> 01:02:07,410 people on the inside who believe that 1457 01:02:11,549 --> 01:02:10,390 they'll they'll rationalize anything you 1458 01:02:14,430 --> 01:02:11,559 know we're doing this for the people but 1459 01:02:15,690 --> 01:02:14,440 in reality I don't I don't believe that 1460 01:02:17,220 --> 01:02:15,700 that is the case I think there's way too 1461 01:02:20,430 --> 01:02:17,230 much profit and power involved in the 1462 01:02:22,620 --> 01:02:20,440 UFO secret having said that are these 1463 01:02:26,700 --> 01:02:22,630 people for real are they giving them 1464 01:02:29,279 --> 01:02:26,710 genuine information bottom line is this 1465 01:02:33,020 --> 01:02:29,289 none of this is really gonna make much 1466 01:02:36,290 --> 01:02:33,030 headway until genuine confirmable date 1467 01:02:38,870 --> 01:02:36,300 is released otherwise it's just people 1468 01:02:39,980 --> 01:02:38,880 talking right and even if they're head 1469 01:02:42,110 --> 01:02:39,990 of Lockheed skunkworks 1470 01:02:45,740 --> 01:02:42,120 even if they run run the lab at 1471 01:02:47,540 --> 01:02:45,750 wright-patterson where we believe alien 1472 01:02:49,690 --> 01:02:47,550 tech was being studied I mean those are 1473 01:02:54,290 --> 01:02:49,700 two of his leaguers two of his people 1474 01:02:57,830 --> 01:02:54,300 doesn't matter it these people none of 1475 01:02:59,570 --> 01:02:57,840 them have made a public statement that 1476 01:03:02,750 --> 01:02:59,580 can be directly attributable to them 1477 01:03:07,490 --> 01:03:02,760 that they will publicly support alright 1478 01:03:11,420 --> 01:03:07,500 so when the head of Boeing skunk works 1479 01:03:13,280 --> 01:03:11,430 excuse me Lockheed skunkworks comes out 1480 01:03:15,200 --> 01:03:13,290 and says yes I've been meeting with Tom 1481 01:03:17,950 --> 01:03:15,210 to launch we talked about this this is 1482 01:03:20,390 --> 01:03:17,960 real if the head of right Pat's 1483 01:03:23,060 --> 01:03:20,400 Laboratory comes out McCaslin I think 1484 01:03:26,270 --> 01:03:23,070 his name is comes out and says this then 1485 01:03:27,980 --> 01:03:26,280 yes if the Major General over at 1486 01:03:30,260 --> 01:03:27,990 Cheyenne Mountain comes out and states 1487 01:03:31,970 --> 01:03:30,270 we're doing this right now these people 1488 01:03:33,890 --> 01:03:31,980 are hiding away in the background and 1489 01:03:37,130 --> 01:03:33,900 Tom DeLonge is their front man 1490 01:03:39,950 --> 01:03:37,140 and he's putting himself out there but 1491 01:03:43,250 --> 01:03:39,960 the problem with that strategy is that 1492 01:03:45,080 --> 01:03:43,260 Tom DeLonge is a rock star and and I 1493 01:03:45,880 --> 01:03:45,090 believe he's a good guy but that's not 1494 01:03:51,950 --> 01:03:45,890 enough 1495 01:03:53,660 --> 01:03:51,960 to give credibility to this phenomenon 1496 01:03:57,110 --> 01:03:53,670 well these guys are hanging out in the 1497 01:04:00,340 --> 01:03:57,120 background no public statements and and 1498 01:04:02,900 --> 01:04:00,350 absolutely no data well yeah 1499 01:04:05,060 --> 01:04:02,910 informations coming out so yeah so all 1500 01:04:08,660 --> 01:04:05,070 this is is talk talk talk it's talk and 1501 01:04:11,270 --> 01:04:08,670 and to add I mean their names were never 1502 01:04:13,460 --> 01:04:11,280 supposed to be given until the Podesta 1503 01:04:15,980 --> 01:04:13,470 emails were leaked so I mean right there 1504 01:04:18,920 --> 01:04:15,990 they're even further back in the corner 1505 01:04:21,200 --> 01:04:18,930 not willing to come forward or make any 1506 01:04:22,640 --> 01:04:21,210 public statement I agree with you and I 1507 01:04:26,840 --> 01:04:22,650 think the Podesta angle has been really 1508 01:04:28,580 --> 01:04:26,850 overplayed and played up okay this is 1509 01:04:29,900 --> 01:04:28,590 where I had yeah I have to strongly 1510 01:04:31,670 --> 01:04:29,910 disagree with my friend colleague 1511 01:04:34,100 --> 01:04:31,680 Stephen Bassett I think he got this 1512 01:04:35,840 --> 01:04:34,110 whole thing wrong and Grant Cameron and 1513 01:04:37,940 --> 01:04:35,850 I respect them both tremendously but I 1514 01:04:40,040 --> 01:04:37,950 never agreed with him on this where they 1515 01:04:43,370 --> 01:04:40,050 think Podesta is genuinely pushing for 1516 01:04:44,960 --> 01:04:43,380 disclosure I never seen this it's one 1517 01:04:47,480 --> 01:04:44,970 thing to have an interest in UFOs which 1518 01:04:51,380 --> 01:04:47,490 okay he does 1519 01:04:54,110 --> 01:04:51,390 and yes yes Podesta made a couple of 1520 01:04:55,520 --> 01:04:54,120 statements about UFOs in his career he 1521 01:04:58,190 --> 01:04:55,530 did this he did the press conference 1522 01:05:02,200 --> 01:04:58,200 back in o2 and he made the tweets the 1523 01:05:04,730 --> 01:05:02,210 one tweet hashtag disclosure however 1524 01:05:06,770 --> 01:05:04,740 John Podesta is one of the most savvy 1525 01:05:13,640 --> 01:05:06,780 political operators in the world right 1526 01:05:18,440 --> 01:05:13,650 right and I firmly believe that he has 1527 01:05:23,330 --> 01:05:18,450 made a recognition that the UFO subject 1528 01:05:26,000 --> 01:05:23,340 in 2014 2015 2016 and today this is not 1529 01:05:27,770 --> 01:05:26,010 where it was that in the 1990s 1990s you 1530 01:05:28,610 --> 01:05:27,780 talk about UFOs it's a career ender 1531 01:05:31,820 --> 01:05:28,620 you're done 1532 01:05:33,440 --> 01:05:31,830 hell even in 2008 it torpedoed the 1533 01:05:35,530 --> 01:05:33,450 career of Dennis Kucinich for his 1534 01:05:38,210 --> 01:05:35,540 presidential candidate candidacy when 1535 01:05:39,770 --> 01:05:38,220 they just tore him to pieces over the 1536 01:05:42,500 --> 01:05:39,780 fact that he had been a UFO witness I 1537 01:05:44,270 --> 01:05:42,510 didn't talk about it and by the way he 1538 01:05:46,970 --> 01:05:44,280 was corroborated by two other people who 1539 01:05:48,050 --> 01:05:46,980 said oh yes absolutely it was a triangle 1540 01:05:49,310 --> 01:05:48,060 it was unbelievable we were on the 1541 01:05:51,560 --> 01:05:49,320 property of Shirley MacLaine when it 1542 01:05:54,050 --> 01:05:51,570 happened I mean it was a really good 1543 01:05:57,890 --> 01:05:54,060 sighting back in the 80s and Kucinich 1544 01:06:00,010 --> 01:05:57,900 got reamed in 2008 for that but even 1545 01:06:02,630 --> 01:06:00,020 since oh wait we've gone through a 1546 01:06:04,900 --> 01:06:02,640 dramatic transformation of the culture 1547 01:06:07,670 --> 01:06:04,910 with YouTube and Facebook social media 1548 01:06:09,830 --> 01:06:07,680 and I think Podesta is a savvy political 1549 01:06:13,250 --> 01:06:09,840 operator has recognized that there are 1550 01:06:15,220 --> 01:06:13,260 votes to be won that UFOs are kind of 1551 01:06:18,650 --> 01:06:15,230 cool they actually are kind of cool 1552 01:06:21,070 --> 01:06:18,660 people are into it there's a tremendous 1553 01:06:24,680 --> 01:06:21,080 market ufo's in other words are a brand 1554 01:06:26,870 --> 01:06:24,690 yes Sarah Brown and Podesta realizes 1555 01:06:29,360 --> 01:06:26,880 that this brand can be tapped as long as 1556 01:06:31,280 --> 01:06:29,370 you're careful like and he's been very 1557 01:06:32,960 --> 01:06:31,290 careful he's very smart about this and 1558 01:06:35,690 --> 01:06:32,970 Hillary was very smart about this 1559 01:06:37,670 --> 01:06:35,700 she let Podesta do the talking for the 1560 01:06:38,570 --> 01:06:37,680 most part a little bit then she did her 1561 01:06:43,420 --> 01:06:38,580 thing on Jimmy Kimmel 1562 01:06:45,890 --> 01:06:43,430 but she never overplayed the UFO part 1563 01:06:49,040 --> 01:06:45,900 they did it just enough to get people 1564 01:06:50,620 --> 01:06:49,050 into UFOs to think oh wow wow they're 1565 01:06:53,660 --> 01:06:50,630 into UFOs I'm gonna vote for her 1566 01:06:54,830 --> 01:06:53,670 and I be I believe that's exactly and a 1567 01:06:57,800 --> 01:06:54,840 hundred percent of what it was all about 1568 01:06:59,750 --> 01:06:57,810 was simply to get the vote and I would I 1569 01:07:00,180 --> 01:06:59,760 mean we'll never know because she didn't 1570 01:07:03,480 --> 01:07:00,190 win the 1571 01:07:06,300 --> 01:07:03,490 but had she won I I would absolutely 1572 01:07:10,260 --> 01:07:06,310 never have expected her to do anything 1573 01:07:14,460 --> 01:07:10,270 like a disclosure never yeah well in 1574 01:07:18,270 --> 01:07:14,470 terms of civilian research into the UFO 1575 01:07:19,829 --> 01:07:18,280 topic Rachel I want to touch on you know 1576 01:07:22,470 --> 01:07:19,839 the the the big one 1577 01:07:24,030 --> 01:07:22,480 let's say MUFON this is a listener 1578 01:07:26,040 --> 01:07:24,040 question from I believe a field 1579 01:07:28,410 --> 01:07:26,050 investigator what are your thoughts on 1580 01:07:30,809 --> 01:07:28,420 the functionality and the behavior of 1581 01:07:34,640 --> 01:07:30,819 research organizations looking into the 1582 01:07:38,579 --> 01:07:34,650 UFO topic that's a great question 1583 01:07:40,680 --> 01:07:38,589 I'm a strong supporter and the in the 1584 01:07:44,700 --> 01:07:40,690 idea of MUFON I think we need 1585 01:07:46,050 --> 01:07:44,710 organizations like MUFON I get a little 1586 01:07:47,700 --> 01:07:46,060 frustrated when people say oh we're done 1587 01:07:49,530 --> 01:07:47,710 we're done with UFO reports now let's 1588 01:07:51,210 --> 01:07:49,540 talk about the implications well yes and 1589 01:07:52,530 --> 01:07:51,220 no we're not really done with the UFO 1590 01:07:54,720 --> 01:07:52,540 reports and the reason we're not done 1591 01:07:58,190 --> 01:07:54,730 with them is because what we absolutely 1592 01:08:01,710 --> 01:07:58,200 need are well researched solid 1593 01:08:03,569 --> 01:08:01,720 investigative cases this strengthens the 1594 01:08:07,319 --> 01:08:03,579 cause for all of us 1595 01:08:08,819 --> 01:08:07,329 and MUFON above any other organization 1596 01:08:10,109 --> 01:08:08,829 that I can think of is really best 1597 01:08:12,270 --> 01:08:10,119 suited to do this 1598 01:08:16,110 --> 01:08:12,280 in other words a very strong MUFON 1599 01:08:17,249 --> 01:08:16,120 investigation that goes to the process 1600 01:08:20,430 --> 01:08:17,259 properly that interviews witnesses 1601 01:08:22,680 --> 01:08:20,440 against any kind of evidence that it can 1602 01:08:25,050 --> 01:08:22,690 put forth and in a proper analysis to 1603 01:08:26,340 --> 01:08:25,060 show that such and such a UFO incident 1604 01:08:28,380 --> 01:08:26,350 is genuine and doesn't seem to be 1605 01:08:31,309 --> 01:08:28,390 explainable conventionally we need this 1606 01:08:33,059 --> 01:08:31,319 we need this in 2017 as much as ever 1607 01:08:34,499 --> 01:08:33,069 there's a lot of times people think 1608 01:08:35,849 --> 01:08:34,509 about UFOs and they think oh well that's 1609 01:08:38,959 --> 01:08:35,859 back you know there were UFO sightings 1610 01:08:41,760 --> 01:08:38,969 in the 50s so we need this today and we 1611 01:08:43,740 --> 01:08:41,770 need MUFON to be at the top of its game 1612 01:08:46,200 --> 01:08:43,750 to do this now the problem has always 1613 01:08:47,070 --> 01:08:46,210 been that MUFON look there's never been 1614 01:08:49,200 --> 01:08:47,080 money and move on 1615 01:08:50,999 --> 01:08:49,210 the investigators who are involved in 1616 01:08:53,479 --> 01:08:51,009 this do this on their own dime their own 1617 01:08:56,459 --> 01:08:53,489 energy their own time commitment and 1618 01:08:58,079 --> 01:08:56,469 some of them do a fantastic job with all 1619 01:09:00,749 --> 01:08:58,089 of those obstacles and they still do a 1620 01:09:05,130 --> 01:09:00,759 great job but it's very difficult it's 1621 01:09:06,720 --> 01:09:05,140 very difficult for years I was a little 1622 01:09:09,689 --> 01:09:06,730 bit of a gadfly I think I'd like to stay 1623 01:09:12,479 --> 01:09:09,699 with MUFON and one of the things that 1624 01:09:14,010 --> 01:09:12,489 I've always said is that MUFON needed to 1625 01:09:17,190 --> 01:09:14,020 put together an annual 1626 01:09:18,840 --> 01:09:17,200 port if nothing else MUFON I said stop 1627 01:09:20,220 --> 01:09:18,850 sucking in the information and not 1628 01:09:21,720 --> 01:09:20,230 giving anything back we need to have 1629 01:09:24,200 --> 01:09:21,730 data what are you investigating what are 1630 01:09:27,329 --> 01:09:24,210 the results of your investigation and 1631 01:09:30,240 --> 01:09:27,339 Jan horizon-- and I say this to his 1632 01:09:33,510 --> 01:09:30,250 credit has been attempting to do these 1633 01:09:35,039 --> 01:09:33,520 annual reports I have one of them I 1634 01:09:37,860 --> 01:09:35,049 think he's been doing them every year to 1635 01:09:39,720 --> 01:09:37,870 put out you know how bare bones like 1636 01:09:41,070 --> 01:09:39,730 these are the number of cases we have 1637 01:09:42,510 --> 01:09:41,080 these what we've investigated these are 1638 01:09:46,110 --> 01:09:42,520 our unknowns and these are our top 1639 01:09:47,970 --> 01:09:46,120 unknowns of the year and I said this is 1640 01:09:50,400 --> 01:09:47,980 what you need to do move on and so I 1641 01:09:53,220 --> 01:09:50,410 think they're still doing that but 1642 01:09:55,170 --> 01:09:53,230 there's so much more to go and we're 1643 01:09:56,670 --> 01:09:55,180 only talking the United States the 1644 01:09:57,650 --> 01:09:56,680 United States has five percent four 1645 01:09:59,610 --> 01:09:57,660 percent of the world's population 1646 01:10:02,910 --> 01:09:59,620 there's a whole big world out there and 1647 01:10:06,900 --> 01:10:02,920 as bad as it is in the u.s. it's vastly 1648 01:10:09,720 --> 01:10:06,910 worse in every other country in terms of 1649 01:10:11,130 --> 01:10:09,730 generating UFO data well I mean it's 1650 01:10:13,890 --> 01:10:11,140 frightening to say that the u.s. is the 1651 01:10:18,450 --> 01:10:13,900 best at this u.s. and Canada but really 1652 01:10:20,310 --> 01:10:18,460 us Brazil they have got good UFO 1653 01:10:22,890 --> 01:10:20,320 researchers but there's is there a 1654 01:10:25,740 --> 01:10:22,900 national database of sightings no there 1655 01:10:28,440 --> 01:10:25,750 isn't not to my knowledge they it's all 1656 01:10:29,460 --> 01:10:28,450 sporadic we have the MUFON database and 1657 01:10:31,740 --> 01:10:29,470 we have the national UFO Reporting 1658 01:10:33,420 --> 01:10:31,750 Center here in North America so if 1659 01:10:34,860 --> 01:10:33,430 someone sees what they think is a UFO at 1660 01:10:37,500 --> 01:10:34,870 the very least they can report it 1661 01:10:40,130 --> 01:10:37,510 elsewhere in the world got nothing yeah 1662 01:10:43,340 --> 01:10:40,140 Europe nothing Britain no nothing really 1663 01:10:45,750 --> 01:10:43,350 Germany Russia to my knowledge China 1664 01:10:48,930 --> 01:10:45,760 these countries all have good UFO 1665 01:10:51,840 --> 01:10:48,940 researchers in them but they need we 1666 01:10:55,400 --> 01:10:51,850 need data and beyond that we need data 1667 01:11:00,300 --> 01:10:55,410 that's been investigated and that 1668 01:11:03,090 --> 01:11:00,310 approaches some level of scientific data 1669 01:11:03,930 --> 01:11:03,100 because that's really the only way we're 1670 01:11:06,630 --> 01:11:03,940 gonna make a breakthrough 1671 01:11:08,250 --> 01:11:06,640 we need a good sledgehammer break 1672 01:11:11,400 --> 01:11:08,260 through this wall of secrecy and we can 1673 01:11:14,100 --> 01:11:11,410 only do it with scientific data 1674 01:11:17,760 --> 01:11:14,110 well investigated data and that's what 1675 01:11:20,640 --> 01:11:17,770 MUFON should be doing and can do I'm 1676 01:11:23,760 --> 01:11:20,650 speaking at this year's MUFON symposium 1677 01:11:27,209 --> 01:11:23,770 for the first time in years I feel that 1678 01:11:29,549 --> 01:11:27,219 I was unofficially banned for six years 1679 01:11:33,569 --> 01:11:29,559 I mean honestly I think I was that's 1680 01:11:34,680 --> 01:11:33,579 fine but I'm a little bit this is all 1681 01:11:39,239 --> 01:11:34,690 about they're doing a thing on the 1682 01:11:41,540 --> 01:11:39,249 secret space program and and I I'm gonna 1683 01:11:43,739 --> 01:11:41,550 say here and here and now the 1684 01:11:45,660 --> 01:11:43,749 individuals that I'm gonna be on a panel 1685 01:11:48,629 --> 01:11:45,670 with on this our individuals that I 1686 01:11:51,089 --> 01:11:48,639 don't all consider reputable and I will 1687 01:11:53,580 --> 01:11:51,099 be making it very clear when I'm at this 1688 01:11:56,819 --> 01:11:53,590 panel that I'm not starting a war with 1689 01:12:00,799 --> 01:11:56,829 anyone but I will be I will be speaking 1690 01:12:02,790 --> 01:12:00,809 very candidly about the failure of 1691 01:12:04,589 --> 01:12:02,800 number of these other individuals to 1692 01:12:07,109 --> 01:12:04,599 provide any kind of confirmable or 1693 01:12:10,379 --> 01:12:07,119 reasonable or even logical data behind 1694 01:12:12,330 --> 01:12:10,389 them and I'm gonna call them out so but 1695 01:12:15,299 --> 01:12:12,340 what I'm a little bit distressed by is 1696 01:12:18,060 --> 01:12:15,309 that this is a the main feature MUFON 1697 01:12:20,580 --> 01:12:18,070 because it's popular people love to talk 1698 01:12:22,709 --> 01:12:20,590 about the secret space program if you go 1699 01:12:26,629 --> 01:12:22,719 to the UFO subject those types of books 1700 01:12:28,739 --> 01:12:26,639 are the top-selling books these days and 1701 01:12:31,109 --> 01:12:28,749 so it's a matter of giving the people 1702 01:12:34,219 --> 01:12:31,119 what they want however this is not going 1703 01:12:38,100 --> 01:12:34,229 to be done in a scientific detached way 1704 01:12:42,930 --> 01:12:38,110 and my fear you know MUFON i it in a 1705 01:12:44,850 --> 01:12:42,940 MUFON show hangar one on TV but which 1706 01:12:47,250 --> 01:12:44,860 was a good idea and which had its own 1707 01:12:51,569 --> 01:12:47,260 problems to be perfectly candid yeah and 1708 01:12:54,709 --> 01:12:51,579 so much here is that MUFON who funds got 1709 01:12:58,529 --> 01:12:54,719 to be very careful here about going into 1710 01:13:00,779 --> 01:12:58,539 an area where they're just dealing more 1711 01:13:03,899 --> 01:13:00,789 with public relations and less with 1712 01:13:05,399 --> 01:13:03,909 scientific inquiry I mean they need PR 1713 01:13:08,189 --> 01:13:05,409 they need to get the word out there 1714 01:13:12,569 --> 01:13:08,199 absolutely move on all through the 80s 1715 01:13:14,729 --> 01:13:12,579 and 90s utterly failed at that MUFON is 1716 01:13:16,890 --> 01:13:14,739 website and you know for most of its 1717 01:13:19,189 --> 01:13:16,900 history has been absolute junk they're 1718 01:13:22,109 --> 01:13:19,199 only now just making it something nice 1719 01:13:24,419 --> 01:13:22,119 but they still have to remain scientific 1720 01:13:26,759 --> 01:13:24,429 and if they don't do that that's their 1721 01:13:29,129 --> 01:13:26,769 core that is their strength their 1722 01:13:32,160 --> 01:13:29,139 strength is not in pretending to have 1723 01:13:34,109 --> 01:13:32,170 underground base files on hangar one or 1724 01:13:35,399 --> 01:13:34,119 presidential files of UFOs and Hank like 1725 01:13:38,060 --> 01:13:35,409 they did in hangar one that's not their 1726 01:13:40,180 --> 01:13:38,070 strength their strength is in doing 1727 01:13:42,370 --> 01:13:40,190 field investigations 1728 01:13:44,020 --> 01:13:42,380 and when they move away from that that 1729 01:13:46,330 --> 01:13:44,030 is their core that's their core business 1730 01:13:48,250 --> 01:13:46,340 as it were and if they move away from 1731 01:13:51,730 --> 01:13:48,260 that they are going to endanger 1732 01:13:54,690 --> 01:13:51,740 themselves and they'll just be just 1733 01:13:57,520 --> 01:13:54,700 another PR company selling their brand 1734 01:14:03,960 --> 01:13:57,530 expand if that happens then we're all 1735 01:14:06,850 --> 01:14:03,970 we're all worse off so let's say yeah 1736 01:14:09,310 --> 01:14:06,860 yeah it's a delicate balance too rich I 1737 01:14:11,710 --> 01:14:09,320 mean in the last week I've spoken to 1738 01:14:14,380 --> 01:14:11,720 several MUFON investigators who off the 1739 01:14:16,990 --> 01:14:14,390 top of their head could give me the 1740 01:14:19,930 --> 01:14:17,000 amount of reports from this year on 1741 01:14:22,300 --> 01:14:19,940 cigar-shaped craft or these orbs or 1742 01:14:24,760 --> 01:14:22,310 these discs what-have-you so that core 1743 01:14:28,060 --> 01:14:24,770 work like you mentioned is being done 1744 01:14:30,730 --> 01:14:28,070 but it is not at the forefront and that 1745 01:14:33,310 --> 01:14:30,740 is a delicate balance between wanting to 1746 01:14:37,000 --> 01:14:33,320 get something like hangar 1 on a you 1747 01:14:38,860 --> 01:14:37,010 know a cable network to get that this 1748 01:14:42,130 --> 01:14:38,870 organization out to the public but then 1749 01:14:44,020 --> 01:14:42,140 again it's a risky game because the more 1750 01:14:47,500 --> 01:14:44,030 sensational you become with these 1751 01:14:49,030 --> 01:14:47,510 underground files it's tricky I get it I 1752 01:14:51,700 --> 01:14:49,040 totally they need they need to make 1753 01:14:53,410 --> 01:14:51,710 their money we can all appreciate that 1754 01:14:55,000 --> 01:14:53,420 you can't run a decent organization if 1755 01:14:57,100 --> 01:14:55,010 you're not getting some cash flow so 1756 01:14:58,270 --> 01:14:57,110 they have to do that the way that 1757 01:15:01,000 --> 01:14:58,280 they've been doing it in the past I 1758 01:15:02,320 --> 01:15:01,010 think was really really questionable and 1759 01:15:04,420 --> 01:15:02,330 in fact they think they still do it's 1760 01:15:05,680 --> 01:15:04,430 like the board members of MUFON are on 1761 01:15:07,180 --> 01:15:05,690 the board because they pay a lot of 1762 01:15:11,260 --> 01:15:07,190 money to move on right 1763 01:15:15,160 --> 01:15:11,270 they basically buy their way in I think 1764 01:15:20,220 --> 01:15:15,170 that's uh not not a good way to do it I 1765 01:15:23,470 --> 01:15:20,230 don't think I support this at all but 1766 01:15:25,030 --> 01:15:23,480 but they on the other hand they need to 1767 01:15:27,060 --> 01:15:25,040 find to find a way to make the money and 1768 01:15:29,830 --> 01:15:27,070 now they're doing it through TV and 1769 01:15:32,170 --> 01:15:29,840 through getting their brand out there 1770 01:15:33,880 --> 01:15:32,180 which is not the worst way to do it but 1771 01:15:36,160 --> 01:15:33,890 they've just got to be very careful with 1772 01:15:37,750 --> 01:15:36,170 how they do it exactly and when you go 1773 01:15:39,400 --> 01:15:37,760 in a TV you're making a deal with the 1774 01:15:42,120 --> 01:15:39,410 devil MUFON did this back in the 70s 1775 01:15:44,440 --> 01:15:42,130 with the National Enquirer by the way 1776 01:15:47,020 --> 01:15:44,450 and talked about media and National 1777 01:15:49,750 --> 01:15:47,030 Enquirer is and was at least was a CIA 1778 01:15:51,760 --> 01:15:49,760 outfit I don't know if it still is back 1779 01:15:53,110 --> 01:15:51,770 in the 70s it was absolutely doing work 1780 01:15:54,010 --> 01:15:53,120 for the CIA it was run by a guy named 1781 01:15:58,470 --> 01:15:54,020 Jean Pope who was 1782 01:16:03,130 --> 01:15:58,480 CIA X mafioso - but definitely CIA and 1783 01:16:04,870 --> 01:16:03,140 and MUFON was actually very close with 1784 01:16:08,950 --> 01:16:04,880 the National Inquirer for through the 1785 01:16:10,630 --> 01:16:08,960 70s and a lot of people back then 1786 01:16:12,310 --> 01:16:10,640 thought why are we doing this and 1787 01:16:17,050 --> 01:16:12,320 because it's really hurting our 1788 01:16:18,640 --> 01:16:17,060 reputation and MUFON leadership's answer 1789 01:16:21,670 --> 01:16:18,650 it was Walter hundreds running MUFON at 1790 01:16:23,200 --> 01:16:21,680 the time said look we you know any 1791 01:16:24,310 --> 01:16:23,210 publicity is better than no publicity 1792 01:16:26,230 --> 01:16:24,320 that thing that was essentially his 1793 01:16:28,750 --> 01:16:26,240 answer until II eventually he got 1794 01:16:30,730 --> 01:16:28,760 overruled and MUFON pulled its 1795 01:16:32,980 --> 01:16:30,740 relationship away from The Enquirer but 1796 01:16:36,250 --> 01:16:32,990 for the mid-70s they were very much in 1797 01:16:37,990 --> 01:16:36,260 bed with the National Enquirer and now 1798 01:16:40,540 --> 01:16:38,000 you've got the situation with hangar one 1799 01:16:42,100 --> 01:16:40,550 it's a similar kind of a thing where the 1800 01:16:43,660 --> 01:16:42,110 problem with that show and I'll just say 1801 01:16:47,770 --> 01:16:43,670 this because I was on it for both of the 1802 01:16:51,070 --> 01:16:47,780 seasons that was a very heavily scripted 1803 01:16:53,440 --> 01:16:51,080 show yes to my knowledge I was I might 1804 01:16:56,230 --> 01:16:53,450 have been the only person in all of 1805 01:16:59,740 --> 01:16:56,240 season two to my knowledge who refused 1806 01:17:02,950 --> 01:16:59,750 to read from a script they wanted me to 1807 01:17:06,040 --> 01:17:02,960 that both seasons and I said are you I 1808 01:17:07,390 --> 01:17:06,050 said look I'll work with you just ask me 1809 01:17:09,970 --> 01:17:07,400 your questions and I'll do my best to 1810 01:17:12,010 --> 01:17:09,980 answer them relevantly yes I mean I just 1811 01:17:13,360 --> 01:17:12,020 for any of the TV shows but I'm not 1812 01:17:15,100 --> 01:17:13,370 gonna read your script I mean goodness 1813 01:17:16,900 --> 01:17:15,110 gracious but they had everyone else 1814 01:17:19,060 --> 01:17:16,910 doing this and they had actual voice 1815 01:17:20,320 --> 01:17:19,070 actors pretending to be UFO researchers 1816 01:17:22,960 --> 01:17:20,330 on there and they had producers on there 1817 01:17:24,580 --> 01:17:22,970 who are not researchers and and a really 1818 01:17:27,130 --> 01:17:24,590 harm and then then the whole pretense 1819 01:17:29,290 --> 01:17:27,140 the false pretense that MUFON had these 1820 01:17:34,000 --> 01:17:29,300 their files in this place called hangar 1821 01:17:35,530 --> 01:17:34,010 one my mother my mother when she she's 1822 01:17:37,930 --> 01:17:35,540 always excited when I'm on television 1823 01:17:39,730 --> 01:17:37,940 and she got excited about hangar one and 1824 01:17:42,850 --> 01:17:39,740 it beginning she said so where is this 1825 01:17:45,580 --> 01:17:42,860 hangar one and I said look mom there 1826 01:17:49,600 --> 01:17:45,590 it's just it's a convenient fiction and 1827 01:17:53,290 --> 01:17:49,610 my mother got so angry being lied to 1828 01:17:54,340 --> 01:17:53,300 right yeah and and I think our instincts 1829 01:17:57,190 --> 01:17:54,350 are good you know you don't want to be 1830 01:17:59,320 --> 01:17:57,200 lied to on TV the idea was when Dave 1831 01:18:00,820 --> 01:17:59,330 McDonald was running MUFON he did he's 1832 01:18:03,670 --> 01:18:00,830 an aviator and he did store MUFON files 1833 01:18:05,860 --> 01:18:03,680 in a hangar and when they were doing the 1834 01:18:07,380 --> 01:18:05,870 creating when they were developing the 1835 01:18:09,600 --> 01:18:07,390 show that was 1836 01:18:11,640 --> 01:18:09,610 MUFON files were stored in a hangar and 1837 01:18:13,920 --> 01:18:11,650 they said let's call it hangar 1 course 1838 01:18:15,780 --> 01:18:13,930 the images of the of the building we're 1839 01:18:20,040 --> 01:18:15,790 all fictional I mean right 1840 01:18:22,260 --> 01:18:20,050 like in that part I mean all right you 1841 01:18:24,360 --> 01:18:22,270 want to like give them this enabling 1842 01:18:26,310 --> 01:18:24,370 fiction fine but then what they would do 1843 01:18:29,070 --> 01:18:26,320 is move on you know we've got our files 1844 01:18:30,510 --> 01:18:29,080 on on this and on that and they they 1845 01:18:32,700 --> 01:18:30,520 don't they don't have their files on 1846 01:18:34,740 --> 01:18:32,710 those cases right but they have a 1847 01:18:38,400 --> 01:18:34,750 tremendous number of case files 1848 01:18:40,680 --> 01:18:38,410 yeah and they don't have files dealing 1849 01:18:43,050 --> 01:18:40,690 with underground bases right there are 1850 01:18:46,770 --> 01:18:43,060 files dealing with the president that's 1851 01:18:50,940 --> 01:18:46,780 grand Cameron he's got this and a few of 1852 01:18:53,370 --> 01:18:50,950 us other researchers you know so I mean 1853 01:18:56,030 --> 01:18:53,380 they were kind of making these it was 1854 01:18:58,700 --> 01:18:56,040 getting down this slippery road of I 1855 01:18:59,970 --> 01:18:58,710 think the producers really had a good 1856 01:19:02,010 --> 01:18:59,980 intention 1857 01:19:04,370 --> 01:19:02,020 I honestly do believe it I met I talked 1858 01:19:08,820 --> 01:19:04,380 with the peruses and I think they 1859 01:19:11,040 --> 01:19:08,830 overall wanted to do a good reliable 1860 01:19:12,870 --> 01:19:11,050 show that dealt with genuine issues and 1861 01:19:15,600 --> 01:19:12,880 some of the shows did deal very well 1862 01:19:17,340 --> 01:19:15,610 with these issues I want to give them 1863 01:19:18,900 --> 01:19:17,350 some credit but they they hampered 1864 01:19:21,680 --> 01:19:18,910 themselves and move on hampered itself 1865 01:19:23,400 --> 01:19:21,690 by going in down this road that is 1866 01:19:24,720 --> 01:19:23,410 they're talking about things that are 1867 01:19:28,470 --> 01:19:24,730 not accurate and this is the danger with 1868 01:19:30,060 --> 01:19:28,480 television anytime you do TV work and I 1869 01:19:33,870 --> 01:19:30,070 don't know I've done enough of it and 1870 01:19:35,850 --> 01:19:33,880 it's very hard these TV producers 1871 01:19:38,160 --> 01:19:35,860 they're not UFO people they don't care 1872 01:19:40,290 --> 01:19:38,170 they want good ratings yes and some of 1873 01:19:42,540 --> 01:19:40,300 them might care a little bit about the 1874 01:19:44,160 --> 01:19:42,550 subject they they do some of them to get 1875 01:19:45,930 --> 01:19:44,170 interested but they don't have a lot of 1876 01:19:48,800 --> 01:19:45,940 knowledge generally speaking and and 1877 01:19:52,470 --> 01:19:48,810 they're out there to get good ratings 1878 01:19:54,030 --> 01:19:52,480 and that's their job their job is to get 1879 01:19:57,450 --> 01:19:54,040 good ratings a job isn't to be truthful 1880 01:19:58,770 --> 01:19:57,460 about UFOs so I'm not faulting them it's 1881 01:20:02,580 --> 01:19:58,780 the nature of the beast 1882 01:20:04,530 --> 01:20:02,590 but MUFON has got to be careful yeah and 1883 01:20:05,910 --> 01:20:04,540 they really I would just say to MUFON I 1884 01:20:08,220 --> 01:20:05,920 would say to Jan and I will say when I 1885 01:20:12,300 --> 01:20:08,230 see him again don't lose sight of your 1886 01:20:17,250 --> 01:20:12,310 core reason to be your core reason to be 1887 01:20:20,340 --> 01:20:17,260 is to have and train and encourage and 1888 01:20:21,120 --> 01:20:20,350 inspire good investigators to do good 1889 01:20:24,620 --> 01:20:21,130 work 1890 01:20:28,110 --> 01:20:24,630 in the field to produce good analyses of 1891 01:20:30,150 --> 01:20:28,120 UFO cases yes that's you do and don't 1892 01:20:32,070 --> 01:20:30,160 lose sight of that move on stick to the 1893 01:20:35,040 --> 01:20:32,080 mission guys no I I have hope for the 1894 01:20:38,250 --> 01:20:35,050 future of MUFON I really do rich in 1895 01:20:41,130 --> 01:20:38,260 terms of a this this may piss off some 1896 01:20:43,050 --> 01:20:41,140 of our more skeptical listeners but in 1897 01:20:46,170 --> 01:20:43,060 closing I've got one more listener 1898 01:20:48,390 --> 01:20:46,180 question for you and that's what do you 1899 01:20:52,410 --> 01:20:48,400 think is the best evidence we have that 1900 01:20:54,330 --> 01:20:52,420 UFOs have anything to do with an 1901 01:20:58,080 --> 01:20:54,340 extraterrestrial intelligence I know 1902 01:20:59,100 --> 01:20:58,090 that's a very loaded question I answer 1903 01:21:01,250 --> 01:20:59,110 it in two stages 1904 01:21:05,580 --> 01:21:01,260 all right so stage one is I look at 1905 01:21:07,110 --> 01:21:05,590 confirmed government documents I always 1906 01:21:09,690 --> 01:21:07,120 start with that 1907 01:21:11,160 --> 01:21:09,700 why because I know they're real I know 1908 01:21:12,900 --> 01:21:11,170 there's a paper trail and I know that 1909 01:21:14,640 --> 01:21:12,910 the national security community has 1910 01:21:18,080 --> 01:21:14,650 taken this subject very seriously 1911 01:21:20,640 --> 01:21:18,090 among documents in the paper trail our 1912 01:21:23,130 --> 01:21:20,650 radar tracking and visuals of objects 1913 01:21:25,040 --> 01:21:23,140 that are described as disc shaped this 1914 01:21:27,600 --> 01:21:25,050 is back in the 1940s and 50s 1915 01:21:29,190 --> 01:21:27,610 sometimes zigzagging sometimes it's an 1916 01:21:31,260 --> 01:21:29,200 acceleration always incredible 1917 01:21:33,420 --> 01:21:31,270 maneuverability silent in other words 1918 01:21:37,650 --> 01:21:33,430 extraordinary so we know that that 1919 01:21:38,930 --> 01:21:37,660 part's real we know this it leaves us a 1920 01:21:42,020 --> 01:21:38,940 couple of options 1921 01:21:44,760 --> 01:21:42,030 extraterrestrial right black-budget 1922 01:21:50,160 --> 01:21:44,770 classified us black-budget classified 1923 01:21:51,660 --> 01:21:50,170 Soviet Russian and the like so on that 1924 01:21:53,100 --> 01:21:51,670 level alone we go through process of 1925 01:21:54,720 --> 01:21:53,110 elimination and we'd know by the way 1926 01:21:57,780 --> 01:21:54,730 that within the US intelligence 1927 01:21:59,700 --> 01:21:57,790 community that the glimpses that we have 1928 01:22:03,410 --> 01:21:59,710 of their analyses that we are permitted 1929 01:22:05,370 --> 01:22:03,420 to see many of them have concluded 1930 01:22:07,800 --> 01:22:05,380 extraterrestrial interplanetary it was 1931 01:22:09,750 --> 01:22:07,810 the most likely scenario because there 1932 01:22:11,670 --> 01:22:09,760 was an evidence of a us-based or Soviet 1933 01:22:14,820 --> 01:22:11,680 based technology program that could do 1934 01:22:16,890 --> 01:22:14,830 it and indeed to this day there isn't on 1935 01:22:20,370 --> 01:22:16,900 top of that we have non-military 1936 01:22:22,770 --> 01:22:20,380 evidence so we have evidence of people 1937 01:22:26,430 --> 01:22:22,780 who have had encounters and here's the 1938 01:22:27,930 --> 01:22:26,440 thing that a skeptic will argue against 1939 01:22:31,050 --> 01:22:27,940 which is that the evidence for these 1940 01:22:34,470 --> 01:22:31,060 encounters is not of a high level of 1941 01:22:37,050 --> 01:22:34,480 scientific credibility in their opinion 1942 01:22:38,690 --> 01:22:37,060 I would be inclined to agree with that 1943 01:22:41,610 --> 01:22:38,700 except I would I would have one caveat 1944 01:22:45,630 --> 01:22:41,620 the amount of that evidence is is so 1945 01:22:46,890 --> 01:22:45,640 vast at this point and and to call it 1946 01:22:50,610 --> 01:22:46,900 non-scientific is a little bit 1947 01:22:52,380 --> 01:22:50,620 problematic anyway there have been some 1948 01:22:55,470 --> 01:22:52,390 very detailed investigations of 1949 01:22:57,990 --> 01:22:55,480 individual cases from back to the Betty 1950 01:23:00,300 --> 01:22:58,000 and Barney Hill abduction case to the 1951 01:23:03,540 --> 01:23:00,310 even the veils Boas cases in Brazil from 1952 01:23:06,420 --> 01:23:03,550 nineteen 1957 to more recent cases in 1953 01:23:09,330 --> 01:23:06,430 the 70s and 80s and 90s that have gone 1954 01:23:11,790 --> 01:23:09,340 through detailed analysis the Betty 1955 01:23:13,920 --> 01:23:11,800 Andreas and Lucca case investigated by 1956 01:23:16,440 --> 01:23:13,930 Ray Fowler is a very very interesting 1957 01:23:18,330 --> 01:23:16,450 case hard for me to dismiss this as 1958 01:23:20,690 --> 01:23:18,340 anything other than dealing with 1959 01:23:23,670 --> 01:23:20,700 extraterrestrial or non-human entities 1960 01:23:26,370 --> 01:23:23,680 the work of Budd Hopkins and John Mack 1961 01:23:30,960 --> 01:23:26,380 and Dave Jacobs and nowadays people like 1962 01:23:33,210 --> 01:23:30,970 Kathleen Martin and Yvonne Smith you 1963 01:23:36,900 --> 01:23:33,220 know the these people do regressive 1964 01:23:38,340 --> 01:23:36,910 hypnosis Barbara lamb I don't even agree 1965 01:23:39,450 --> 01:23:38,350 with all of the conclusions that they 1966 01:23:42,360 --> 01:23:39,460 have about the nature of the phenomenon 1967 01:23:46,110 --> 01:23:42,370 itself but all of these people are 1968 01:23:48,390 --> 01:23:46,120 meeting with large numbers of 1969 01:23:49,920 --> 01:23:48,400 individuals who've had what they believe 1970 01:23:52,560 --> 01:23:49,930 our abduction experience our encounter 1971 01:23:54,590 --> 01:23:52,570 experiences then the quantity of these 1972 01:23:57,360 --> 01:23:54,600 individuals is so vast and these are not 1973 01:24:01,710 --> 01:23:57,370 psychologically disturbed people now is 1974 01:24:04,470 --> 01:24:01,720 there an explanation that could account 1975 01:24:06,840 --> 01:24:04,480 for the tremendous consistency of what 1976 01:24:10,380 --> 01:24:06,850 most of these people are saying they're 1977 01:24:12,180 --> 01:24:10,390 having experiences with non-human 1978 01:24:16,940 --> 01:24:12,190 entities who are doing things to their 1979 01:24:19,020 --> 01:24:16,950 body is there some kind of psychological 1980 01:24:21,960 --> 01:24:19,030 manifestation of something that's 1981 01:24:23,670 --> 01:24:21,970 causing this well in theory I suppose 1982 01:24:25,950 --> 01:24:23,680 it's possible we don't know what that is 1983 01:24:27,600 --> 01:24:25,960 no one's identified it on the other hand 1984 01:24:29,729 --> 01:24:27,610 knowing that there's a UFO phenomenon 1985 01:24:31,860 --> 01:24:29,739 that is real and we know it's real 1986 01:24:34,650 --> 01:24:31,870 because we have the documentation to 1987 01:24:37,080 --> 01:24:34,660 prove it's real and we have the reasons 1988 01:24:39,240 --> 01:24:37,090 to believe that it may indeed be not of 1989 01:24:43,370 --> 01:24:39,250 our civilization so when I combine that 1990 01:24:45,450 --> 01:24:43,380 evidence with the very large amount of 1991 01:24:46,979 --> 01:24:45,460 personal testimony that people have of 1992 01:24:48,329 --> 01:24:46,989 encounters with non-human beings in 1993 01:24:50,790 --> 01:24:48,339 connection with the UFO subject 1994 01:24:52,979 --> 01:24:50,800 the Topix sightings excuse me then I 1995 01:24:55,429 --> 01:24:52,989 have to think that's the most by far 1996 01:24:59,279 --> 01:24:55,439 rarely it's the most logical conclusion 1997 01:25:01,679 --> 01:24:59,289 and it doesn't all come down to evidence 1998 01:25:03,329 --> 01:25:01,689 from regressive hypnosis by the way all 1999 01:25:06,689 --> 01:25:03,339 right there's a lot of people who have 2000 01:25:09,739 --> 01:25:06,699 had encounters with UFOs and beings or 2001 01:25:11,549 --> 01:25:09,749 endor occupants inside that have not 2002 01:25:13,709 --> 01:25:11,559 revealed this information through 2003 01:25:16,259 --> 01:25:13,719 hypnosis I mean there's an enormous 2004 01:25:18,750 --> 01:25:16,269 number of accounts from around the world 2005 01:25:21,290 --> 01:25:18,760 that's just America where this is the 2006 01:25:26,309 --> 01:25:21,300 case so I think that's the most likely 2007 01:25:29,279 --> 01:25:26,319 scenario that's not the same as 2008 01:25:30,509 --> 01:25:29,289 scientific laboratory proof but it's a 2009 01:25:32,759 --> 01:25:30,519 messy world out there this is what I 2010 01:25:35,369 --> 01:25:32,769 think we're looking at I think it's the 2011 01:25:37,229 --> 01:25:35,379 best hypothesis by far yes and that's 2012 01:25:41,219 --> 01:25:37,239 why I say I think that's why we are 2013 01:25:42,959 --> 01:25:41,229 dealing with a presence of another are 2014 01:25:44,669 --> 01:25:42,969 they from another planet well I would 2015 01:25:46,649 --> 01:25:44,679 say probably but they could be from some 2016 01:25:48,359 --> 01:25:46,659 other portion of reality that I don't 2017 01:25:50,219 --> 01:25:48,369 quite understand because I'm not smart 2018 01:25:54,299 --> 01:25:50,229 enough because my brain doesn't work in 2019 01:25:56,309 --> 01:25:54,309 the way that I wish I could yeah well I 2020 01:25:58,500 --> 01:25:56,319 know I mean rich you and I both know as 2021 01:26:00,659 --> 01:25:58,510 all the listeners that this topic in 2022 01:26:05,129 --> 01:26:00,669 general UFOs is not so black and white 2023 01:26:09,000 --> 01:26:05,139 so there is no one core answer to any of 2024 01:26:10,290 --> 01:26:09,010 this I had a conversation I've been 2025 01:26:12,829 --> 01:26:10,300 interrupted you've been so nice to me 2026 01:26:15,239 --> 01:26:12,839 this whole interview right all right 2027 01:26:18,540 --> 01:26:15,249 once with a researcher named Chris 2028 01:26:20,609 --> 01:26:18,550 O'Brien yeah I like Chris he he's done 2029 01:26:21,869 --> 01:26:20,619 great work on cattle mutilations and not 2030 01:26:23,819 --> 01:26:21,879 just that though he's done work on 2031 01:26:27,809 --> 01:26:23,829 really a lot of the high strangeness of 2032 01:26:29,459 --> 01:26:27,819 this whole subject and Chris we were 2033 01:26:34,109 --> 01:26:29,469 talking about this once and he he said 2034 01:26:37,649 --> 01:26:34,119 to me I I said I think you know no 2035 01:26:39,509 --> 01:26:37,659 there's no one theory that seems to 2036 01:26:40,709 --> 01:26:39,519 explain all of UFOs and he said I would 2037 01:26:42,779 --> 01:26:40,719 go further I would say a lot of the 2038 01:26:44,549 --> 01:26:42,789 theories fight against each other in 2039 01:26:49,099 --> 01:26:44,559 other words the idea of extraterrestrial 2040 01:26:52,939 --> 01:26:49,109 or time travelers or interdimensional 2041 01:26:54,959 --> 01:26:52,949 entities or black-budget 2042 01:26:57,929 --> 01:26:54,969 but they are there's all of these 2043 01:26:59,609 --> 01:26:57,939 competing theories when we when we ask 2044 01:27:01,350 --> 01:26:59,619 ourselves what is the core what's 2045 01:27:03,870 --> 01:27:01,360 causing this phenomenon 2046 01:27:06,180 --> 01:27:03,880 is it some psychosocial phenomenon is is 2047 01:27:08,430 --> 01:27:06,190 the earth itself is reality itself 2048 01:27:11,010 --> 01:27:08,440 getting inside our heads to make us see 2049 01:27:12,140 --> 01:27:11,020 these things in a way that comports with 2050 01:27:13,800 --> 01:27:12,150 our own cultural and psychological 2051 01:27:16,130 --> 01:27:13,810 expectations I mean if you go through 2052 01:27:19,410 --> 01:27:16,140 UFO sightings over the centuries people 2053 01:27:20,880 --> 01:27:19,420 in medieval times banned sightings of 2054 01:27:23,640 --> 01:27:20,890 things they didn't describe the most 2055 01:27:25,530 --> 01:27:23,650 spacemen in flying saucers because well 2056 01:27:27,810 --> 01:27:25,540 they didn't have that concept so they 2057 01:27:30,600 --> 01:27:27,820 described things differently so is there 2058 01:27:32,550 --> 01:27:30,610 a phenomenon that's causing us to see 2059 01:27:33,570 --> 01:27:32,560 things the way we expect to see them and 2060 01:27:34,260 --> 01:27:33,580 does that mean that they're physically 2061 01:27:36,120 --> 01:27:34,270 real or not 2062 01:27:40,230 --> 01:27:36,130 that's a psychosocial type of 2063 01:27:42,210 --> 01:27:40,240 explanation and then there's the whole 2064 01:27:44,940 --> 01:27:42,220 idea that are we living in a constructed 2065 01:27:47,120 --> 01:27:44,950 matrix type of reality a kind of a you 2066 01:27:49,110 --> 01:27:47,130 know simulating simulation hypothesis 2067 01:27:54,240 --> 01:27:49,120 but then I think the extra-terrestrial 2068 01:27:56,730 --> 01:27:54,250 hypothesis is a is still the probably 2069 01:27:59,100 --> 01:27:56,740 the front-runner in my opinion when I 2070 01:28:01,640 --> 01:27:59,110 look at our own future tech our own 2071 01:28:03,750 --> 01:28:01,650 ability in the next generation or two to 2072 01:28:06,300 --> 01:28:03,760 get some part of our civilization 2073 01:28:09,570 --> 01:28:06,310 civilization out to the stars I mean 2074 01:28:11,340 --> 01:28:09,580 where you and I may not make it but next 2075 01:28:13,950 --> 01:28:11,350 gen artificial intelligence next 2076 01:28:15,450 --> 01:28:13,960 generation 3d printing next generation 2077 01:28:17,760 --> 01:28:15,460 propulsion yeah I could see it happening 2078 01:28:19,260 --> 01:28:17,770 we could send something out there and so 2079 01:28:21,000 --> 01:28:19,270 has another civilization had already 2080 01:28:23,580 --> 01:28:21,010 done that for us are they sending their 2081 01:28:26,100 --> 01:28:23,590 own artificially created beings their 2082 01:28:27,930 --> 01:28:26,110 own avatars who knows I think that's 2083 01:28:29,190 --> 01:28:27,940 probably the most likely scenario and I 2084 01:28:33,150 --> 01:28:29,200 think that's what we're dealing with I 2085 01:28:37,320 --> 01:28:33,160 agree it is in extremely enticing future 2086 01:28:38,490 --> 01:28:37,330 to to live in and I look forward to 2087 01:28:40,560 --> 01:28:38,500 seeing where that goes 2088 01:28:42,270 --> 01:28:40,570 rich what do you got coming up my man 2089 01:28:42,720 --> 01:28:42,280 what can we expect from you in the near 2090 01:28:46,380 --> 01:28:42,730 future 2091 01:28:50,580 --> 01:28:46,390 well I I just shot a had a reshoot but 2092 01:28:53,250 --> 01:28:50,590 we did a full season episode of false 2093 01:28:54,960 --> 01:28:53,260 flags on Gaia TV so I've had a show on 2094 01:28:57,900 --> 01:28:54,970 guides coming out it'll be out this 2095 01:28:59,900 --> 01:28:57,910 early summer I think on the history of 2096 01:29:02,010 --> 01:28:59,910 false flag operation this is not a UFO 2097 01:29:03,690 --> 01:29:02,020 oriented program at all it's all 2098 01:29:05,790 --> 01:29:03,700 politics it's something very different 2099 01:29:07,800 --> 01:29:05,800 for Gaia this is not anything like what 2100 01:29:09,720 --> 01:29:07,810 they do is they're taking a chance on me 2101 01:29:12,690 --> 01:29:09,730 so I'm hoping it doesn't fall flat I 2102 01:29:14,520 --> 01:29:12,700 think it's a good show it deals with the 2103 01:29:15,930 --> 01:29:14,530 phenomenon of false flags as 2104 01:29:19,290 --> 01:29:15,940 has occurred throughout human history 2105 01:29:22,560 --> 01:29:19,300 particular in last century and in 2106 01:29:25,020 --> 01:29:22,570 focusing really on a lot of the us false 2107 01:29:26,370 --> 01:29:25,030 flags over the last 50 years it's only 2108 01:29:28,020 --> 01:29:26,380 scratching the surface there's so much 2109 01:29:29,540 --> 01:29:28,030 more to do but I've written and hosted 2110 01:29:32,129 --> 01:29:29,550 that that'll be out soon 2111 01:29:35,010 --> 01:29:32,139 I'll keep people posted on that as we 2112 01:29:39,390 --> 01:29:35,020 approach airing and then in terms of my 2113 01:29:41,220 --> 01:29:39,400 own writing and researching I'm working 2114 01:29:44,220 --> 01:29:41,230 on my own publishing projects right now 2115 01:29:46,470 --> 01:29:44,230 I've spoken cluding yours over the last 2116 01:29:47,760 --> 01:29:46,480 year I've got us some of my own things 2117 01:29:49,589 -->

was the plan from the beginning it 2148 01:31:05,459 --> 01:31:03,969 was really nice being on your show and I 2149 01:31:07,910 --> 01:31:05,469 think it's gonna be really successful 2150 01:31:10,589 --> 01:31:07,920 and I just want to say on your behalf 2151 01:31:13,740 --> 01:31:10,599 the book you wrote somewhere in the 2152 01:31:16,950 --> 01:31:13,750 skies I consider one of the best books 2153 01:31:20,370 --> 01:31:16,960 of the decade in this field what I like 2154 01:31:24,299 --> 01:31:20,380 what you did is you I think there was a 2155 01:31:27,419 --> 01:31:24,309 real lack of books about experiencers 2156 01:31:28,380 --> 01:31:27,429 direct sightings and experiences of the 2157 01:31:30,510 --> 01:31:28,390 UFO phenomenon 2158 01:31:32,700 --> 01:31:30,520 you know the the people who did 2159 01:31:35,970 --> 01:31:32,710 abduction books had had been doing this 2160 01:31:38,790 --> 01:31:35,980 but my sense is that there's a lack of 2161 01:31:40,080 --> 01:31:38,800 these books out there and and you don't 2162 01:31:43,080 --> 01:31:40,090 have to do this through abduction 2163 01:31:44,430 --> 01:31:43,090 research or hypnotic regression you can
