back this 60 00:03:01,199 --> 00:02:59,140 there's news right and I mean right 61 00:03:04,290 --> 00:03:01,209 before the New Year last year's when 62 00:03:06,839 --> 00:03:04,300 they you know the big stories broke you 63 00:03:08,970 --> 00:03:06,849 know to the Stars and New Times articles 64 00:03:10,410 --> 00:03:08,980 so you know that was a great way to sort 65 00:03:12,780 --> 00:03:10,420 of ring in the New Year but then since 66 00:03:14,790 --> 00:03:12,790 then we've had a lot of follow up with a 67 00:03:17,339 --> 00:03:14,800 lot of that which we will get to but 68

writing a book that 82 00:04:00,210 --> 00:03:55,299 will probably take me ten years to 83 00:04:03,870 --> 00:04:00,220 finish so yeah 84 00:04:05,190 --> 00:04:03,880 about G Jason yeah yeah I've

00:04:17,919 involve some of the people on this show 91 00:04:25,950 --> 00:04:23,260 today yeah speaking it at conventions 92 00:04:27,779 --> 00:04:25,960 just spoke with you Ryan at a lien con 93

greatest joy 96 00:04:39,750 --> 00:04:37,240 related to UFOs and other associated 97 00:04:43,590 --> 00:04:39,760 topics because like I say with all my 98 00:04:46,620 --> 00:04:43,600 work I focus on the general public not 99 00:04:49,620 --> 00:04:46,630 necessarily the UFO community you have a 100 00:04:52,680 --> 00:04:49,630 research community my my goal is to 101 00:04:55,020 --> 00:04:52,690 reach the general public share the 102 00:04:57,600 --> 00:04:55,030 information that I have and encourage 103 00:05:00,270 --> 00:04:57,610 people to get excited about the topic 104 00:05:02,159 --> 00:05:00,280 and do their own research so events like 105 00:05:04,950 --> 00:05:02,169 Comic Cons or the perfect venue for that 106 00:05:06,149 --> 00:05:04,960 so I had a great opportunity to do a lot 107 00:05:07,980 --> 00:05:06,159 of that this year and there's more of 108 00:05:10,110 --> 00:05:07,990 that coming in the next year 109 00:05:13,879 --> 00:05:10,120 looking forward to that 20 teens been a 110 00:05:16,770 --> 00:05:13,889 year full of just regular life stuff so 111 00:05:20,760 --> 00:05:16,780 really busy here with that in a slow 112 00:05:23,070 --> 00:05:20,770 year for me in terms of my my UFO 113 00:05:26,249 --> 00:05:23,080 passions so we'll see if I could fix 114 00:05:27,870 --> 00:05:26,259 that in 2019 yeah and I mean one of my 115 00:05:30,990 --> 00:05:27,880 favorite moments from alien conjuration 116 00:05:33,540 --> 00:05:31,000 was when like a god like a 12 year 13 117 00:05:35,100 --> 00:05:33,550 year old boy came up to you and asked to 118 00:05:37,350 --> 00:05:35,110 take a picture with you because he 119 00:05:39,570 --> 00:05:37,360 followed your work I will never forget 120 00:05:41,969 --> 00:05:39,580 that man that shows like the younger 121 00:05:43,860 --> 00:05:41,979 people are interested in this topic and 122 00:05:46,589 --> 00:05:43,870 you know if it's gonna come from alien 123 00:05:48,570 --> 00:05:46,599 con so be it sort of the first thing I 124 00:05:50,310 --> 00:05:48,580 want to that's really fresh in all of 125 00:05:52,710 --> 00:05:50,320 our minds and probably the listeners as 126 00:05:55,589 --> 00:05:52,720 well is this recent release of the 127 00:06:00,930 --> 00:05:55,599 documentary by Jeremy Korbel bob lazar 128 00:06:06,790 --> 00:06:04,540 well I am telling the truth I've tried 129 00:06:08,589 --> 00:06:06,800 to prove that what's going on up there 130 00:06:12,279 --> 00:06:08,599 could be the most important event in 131 00:06:15,909 --> 00:06:12,289 history you're talking about contact 132 00:06:17,920 --> 00:06:15,919 physical physical contact and proof from 133 00:06:20,649 --> 00:06:17,930 another another system another planet 134 00:06:23,020 --> 00:06:20,659 and other intelligence that's got to be 135 00:06:25,360 --> 00:06:23,030 the biggest event in history period and 136 00:06:26,200 --> 00:06:25,370 it's real and it's real and it's there 137 00:06:28,210 --> 00:06:26,210 Jason 138 00:06:29,260 --> 00:06:28,220 Maureen and I were able to see the world 139 00:06:31,450 --> 00:06:29,270 premiere of this here in Los Angeles 140 00:06:33,879 --> 00:06:31,460 Mike I know you saw it maybe a couple 141 00:06:36,879 --> 00:06:33,889 days before us to review for punk rock 142 00:06:38,320 --> 00:06:36,889 and UFOs so before we get into the other 143 00:06:41,649 --> 00:06:38,330 things that have happened this year I 144 00:06:45,070 --> 00:06:41,659 want to know what your guys reaction and 145 00:06:47,950 --> 00:06:45,080 girls reactions were to the movie so 146 00:06:49,869 --> 00:06:47,960 let's start with Mike you you saw the 147 00:06:53,800 --> 00:06:49,879 film before us what did you think of it 148 00:06:56,200 --> 00:06:53,810 I really enjoyed it the only criticism I 149 00:06:57,850 --> 00:06:56,210 about Jeremy's feel films are his the 150 00:06:59,800 --> 00:06:57,860 certain narrative style he shoots it in 151 00:07:01,149 --> 00:06:59,810 which kind of make them like kind of 152 00:07:03,670 --> 00:07:01,159 like everyone feels like a similar 153 00:07:05,529 --> 00:07:03,680 formula but this is by far my favorite 154 00:07:08,830 --> 00:07:05,539 film he's done I think he did a really 155 00:07:10,689 --> 00:07:08,840 good job of telling Bob was our story 156 00:07:12,790 --> 00:07:10,699 and I mean a lot of it it's in defense 157 00:07:15,490 --> 00:07:12,800 of Bob Lazar there's not you know too 158 00:07:17,379 --> 00:07:15,500 much opposition to him but it does 159 00:07:18,969 --> 00:07:17,389 really paint a good picture of the whole 160 00:07:21,279 --> 00:07:18,979 story of where he's at right now and 161 00:07:22,659 --> 00:07:21,289 from the beginning it was entertaining 162 00:07:24,459 --> 00:07:22,669 as well was fascinating I think it's 163 00:07:25,600 --> 00:07:24,469 something that you can show anyone and 164 00:07:28,240 --> 00:07:25,610 the fact that it's getting all this 165 00:07:29,619 --> 00:07:28,250 positive press and Jeremy's flying all 166 00:07:32,050 --> 00:07:29,629 over the country to impress for it and 167 00:07:34,330 --> 00:07:32,060 people writing articles about it I think 168 00:07:36,149 --> 00:07:34,340 it's it's definitely just the idea of 169 00:07:38,200 --> 00:07:36,159 doing a film on it was a home run and 170 00:07:39,640 --> 00:07:38,210 everyone has really seems to enjoy I 171 00:07:40,029 --> 00:07:39,650 really enjoyed it too I thought it was 172 00:07:42,100 --> 00:07:40,039 great 173 00:07:44,529 --> 00:07:42,110 awesome yeah I mean it's really tapping 174 00:07:46,390 --> 00:07:44,539 into a lot of the mainstream right now 175 00:07:48,700 --> 00:07:46,400 I'm seeing Jeremy all over the place New 176 00:07:51,610 --> 00:07:48,710 York LA doing all these like really 177 00:07:53,230 --> 00:07:51,620 fresh sort of vice-like interviews so 178 00:07:55,600 --> 00:07:53,240 it's definitely getting out to the 179 00:07:57,909 --> 00:07:55,610 younger people Maureen Jason I know you 180 00:07:59,709 --> 00:07:57,919 guys witnessed this to so many like 181 00:08:02,290 --> 00:07:59,719 younger people came to this world 182 00:08:04,209 --> 00:08:02,300 premiere of a UFO documentary which 183 00:08:05,980 --> 00:08:04,219 really blew me away I don't know about 184 00:08:07,360 --> 00:08:05,990 you guys but what did you guys make of 185 00:08:09,370 --> 00:08:07,370 the film we didn't really have a lot of 186 00:08:11,649 --> 00:08:09,380 time after to talk everyone had to go 187 00:08:13,959 --> 00:08:11,659 their separate ways so I'd love to hear 188 00:08:16,889 --> 00:08:13,969 what she all thought of this movie 189 00:08:19,419 --> 00:08:16,899 I actually saw it early as well so the 190 00:08:22,299 --> 00:08:19,429 premiere was my second time seeing it 191 00:08:24,969 --> 00:08:22,309 and and I liked the film I think what I 192 00:08:27,159 --> 00:08:24,979 told Jeremy too was that I think he did 193 00:08:29,229 --> 00:08:27,169 a really good job of presenting the 194 00:08:32,079 --> 00:08:29,239 story especially to the general public 195 00:08:34,209 --> 00:08:32,089 people who don't know a lot about this 196 00:08:37,149 --> 00:08:34,219 story will be like holy moly you know 197 00:08:40,119 --> 00:08:37,159 what was going on with this there are a 198 00:08:43,089 --> 00:08:40,129 few tidbits that are new in the film for 199 00:08:45,249 --> 00:08:43,099 people who are super familiar with the 200 00:08:47,410 --> 00:08:45,259 story and everything that happened over 201 00:08:50,920 --> 00:08:47,420 the last thirty years 202 00:08:54,249 --> 00:08:50,930 and so those are fun bits to see again 203 00:08:56,619 --> 00:08:54,259 we're quite close with Jeremy and so we 204 00:08:58,749 --> 00:08:56,629 knew some of the I don't want to give 205 00:09:00,519 --> 00:08:58,759 any spoilers out for people who haven't 206 00:09:03,189 --> 00:09:00,529 watched the film so some of the things 207 00:09:04,829 --> 00:09:03,199 we were aware of that it happened that 208 00:09:07,600 --> 00:09:04,839 are supposed to be these big 209 00:09:10,480 --> 00:09:07,610 groundbreaking things so again it's more 210 00:09:12,850 --> 00:09:10,490 entertainment style that you don't 211 00:09:15,429 --> 00:09:12,860 normally see in UFO documentaries more 212 00:09:18,549 --> 00:09:15,439 fast paced and I think that's the kind 213 00:09:21,939 --> 00:09:18,559 of style that draws younger people as 214 00:09:25,150 --> 00:09:21,949 well because there the music the 215 00:09:26,350 --> 00:09:25,160 soundtrack the visuals that's what's 216 00:09:28,869 --> 00:09:26,360 going to get all these younger people 217 00:09:31,509 --> 00:09:28,879 interested in what the actual material 218 00:09:33,340 --> 00:09:31,519 and subject matter is behind it so you 219 00:09:38,069 --> 00:09:33,350 know obviously it's an extremely 220 00:09:42,040 --> 00:09:38,079 polarizing case and well you didn't see 221 00:09:46,210 --> 00:09:42,050 so much of the opposition side of the 222 00:09:49,509 --> 00:09:46,220 people who think he's lying in full of 223 00:09:52,540 --> 00:09:49,519 [\h__\h] there's enough to kind of give you 224 00:09:55,240 --> 00:09:52,550 both sides of the story I think yeah I 225 00:09:57,309 --> 00:09:55,250 mean I agree with you I think Jeremy 226 00:09:59,679 --> 00:09:57,319 could have went a little further with 227 00:10:01,240 --> 00:09:59,689 the other side of it but he did push Bob 228 00:10:03,699 --> 00:10:01,250 several times which I definitely 229 00:10:06,519 --> 00:10:03,709 appreciated a lot of people have you 230 00:10:09,340 --> 00:10:06,529 know sort of sort of blamed Korbel for 231 00:10:11,290 --> 00:10:09,350 being very not apologetic but very pro 232 00:10:13,720 --> 00:10:11,300 belief when it comes to his films in 233 00:10:16,059 --> 00:10:13,730 these things so I'm glad he went there 234 00:10:18,490 --> 00:10:16,069 with this I think this is like Mike said 235 00:10:20,379 --> 00:10:18,500 his strongest film yet and agreed with 236 00:10:22,689 --> 00:10:20,389 you on several points to Maureen there 237 00:10:25,389 --> 00:10:22,699 weren't any huge bombshells that left me 238 00:10:27,910 --> 00:10:25,399 feeling differently I felt the same as I 239 00:10:29,680 --> 00:10:27,920 felt before the film leaving it 240 00:10:32,949 --> 00:10:29,690 what did you think Jason well I 241 00:10:36,699 --> 00:10:32,959 certainly had fun with it and I I think 242 00:10:39,790 --> 00:10:36,709 that this is more a film for the UFO 243 00:10:42,370 --> 00:10:39,800 crowd I think if you are familiar with 244 00:10:44,980 --> 00:10:42,380 the Lazar story and you're a UFO 245 00:10:46,689 --> 00:10:44,990 quote-unquote fan it's a fun movie 246 00:10:49,090 --> 00:10:46,699 because right here's the story about a 247 00:10:51,970 --> 00:10:49,100 guy that we've all known about and read 248 00:10:54,699 --> 00:10:51,980 about for years and we're seeing him 249 00:10:57,120 --> 00:10:54,709 presented in a humanizing way certainly 250 00:11:00,220 --> 00:10:57,130 fun at the premiere saying Bob in person 251 00:11:03,750 --> 00:11:00,230 how close to duplicating the alien 252 00:11:08,110 --> 00:11:03,760 propulsion system did you achieve 253 00:11:11,620 --> 00:11:08,120 we didn't that's that's just about it I 254 00:11:15,400 --> 00:11:11,630 mean we we couldn't even duplicate the 255 00:11:16,900 --> 00:11:15,410 material that I mean even the casing 256 00:11:18,519 --> 00:11:16,910 material and we didn't really even 257 00:11:20,439 --> 00:11:18,529 understand it was going on it's one of 258 00:11:23,410 --> 00:11:20,449 those things where we couldn't see 259 00:11:26,800 --> 00:11:23,420 what's happening and be proficient at 260 00:11:29,560 --> 00:11:26,810 using it but there wasn't a single thing 261 00:11:31,090 --> 00:11:29,570 we could duplicate at all at least at 262 00:11:33,310 --> 00:11:31,100 the time when I was there I have no idea 263 00:11:34,900 --> 00:11:33,320 where they are at this point did you 264 00:11:37,180 --> 00:11:34,910 have any breakthroughs when you were 265 00:11:40,269 --> 00:11:37,190 working at us for an alien spacecraft 266 00:11:42,160 --> 00:11:40,279 Bob did you have breakthroughs well any 267 00:11:44,319 --> 00:11:42,170 time you you were able to decipher 268 00:11:46,420 --> 00:11:44,329 something it was a breakthrough I mean 269 00:11:48,189 --> 00:11:46,430 when we determine the fuel was a 270 00:11:50,620 --> 00:11:48,199 super-heavy element that was a 271 00:11:54,430 --> 00:11:50,630 breakthrough when we finally figured out 272 00:11:56,470 --> 00:11:54,440 how the reactor and the amplifier work 273 00:11:58,420 --> 00:11:56,480 together that was the breakthrough when 274 00:12:00,699 --> 00:11:58,430 we finally figured out how to shut the 275 00:12:01,620 --> 00:12:00,709 reactor off that was great to me and 276 00:12:04,740 --> 00:12:01,630 every single 277 00:12:06,330 --> 00:12:04,750 thing was amazing to us it's like you 278 00:12:08,190 --> 00:12:06,340 know having a couple little children 279 00:12:11,400 --> 00:12:08,200 playing with advanced materials it's 280 00:12:13,500 --> 00:12:11,410 it's just all you know it's pretty much 281 00:12:16,230 --> 00:12:13,510 all a lot some of us have seen Bob 282 00:12:18,330 --> 00:12:16,240 before so not that new and cool but it 283 00:12:20,550 --> 00:12:18,340 is still awesome I mean let's face it 284 00:12:24,060 --> 00:12:20,560 whatever side you're on with this story 285 00:12:26,160 --> 00:12:24,070 it's still like a huge thing in the UFO 286 00:12:29,100 --> 00:12:26,170 world so being able to see Bob there in 287 00:12:32,100 --> 00:12:29,110 person see Bob's story on the big screen 288 00:12:33,720 --> 00:12:32,110 and you know dig a little deeper into it 289 00:12:37,560 --> 00:12:33,730 that's awesome 290 00:12:40,020 --> 00:12:37,570 so I enjoyed it for that I still am left 291 00:12:42,720 --> 00:12:40,030 with tons of questions and you know 292 00:12:44,580 --> 00:12:42,730 contrary to the claims that Jeremy's 293 00:12:47,010 --> 00:12:44,590 made many times and certainly made at 294 00:12:51,150 --> 00:12:47,020 the premiere this film does not answer 295 00:12:54,000 --> 00:12:51,160 all the questions it doesn't prove you 296 00:12:56,820 --> 00:12:54,010 know all the counterclaim or claims that 297 00:13:00,480 --> 00:12:56,830 people make in in opposition to Lazar 298 00:13:03,060 --> 00:13:00,490 story and some of the things presented 299 00:13:05,550 --> 00:13:03,070 in defense of Bob or things that George 300 00:13:08,460 --> 00:13:05,560 Knapp came forward with many many years 301 00:13:12,120 --> 00:13:08,470 ago so you know there are still 302 00:13:14,600 --> 00:13:12,130 questions to be asked and we will be ro 303 00:13:17,460 --> 00:13:14,610 planet will certainly be doing a video 304 00:13:21,000 --> 00:13:17,470 interview with Jeremy in the coming 305 00:13:22,470 --> 00:13:21,010 weeks or months and we will push on some 306 00:13:25,020 --> 00:13:22,480 of those things that are there left 307 00:13:26,520 --> 00:13:25,030 unanswered but overall I had fun with 308 00:13:28,290 --> 00:13:26,530 the film and I'm gonna be controversial 309 00:13:29,910 --> 00:13:28,300 here and push against you guys and say 310 00:13:32,940 --> 00:13:29,920 this was not my favorite 311 00:13:35,580 --> 00:13:32,950 Jeremy film I'm gonna say my favorite 312 00:13:37,890 --> 00:13:35,590 film of his is alien scalpel the one 313 00:13:41,070 --> 00:13:37,900 about the work of Roger Leir simply 314 00:13:43,200 --> 00:13:41,080 because Jeremy's past two films have 315 00:13:46,620 --> 00:13:43,210 relied heavily on the work of George 316 00:13:48,630 --> 00:13:46,630 Knapp and you know have featured you 317 00:13:51,030 --> 00:13:48,640 know footage and interviews and in 318 00:13:53,430 --> 00:13:51,040 things that George Napa's has worked on 319 00:13:56,640 --> 00:13:53,440 over the years in his career whereas 320 00:13:59,420 --> 00:13:56,650 with the Roger Leir story that was 321 00:14:03,200 --> 00:13:59,430 Jeremy do an investigative piece and 322 00:14:06,690 --> 00:14:03,210 actually doing scientific research 323 00:14:09,690 --> 00:14:06,700 funded out of his pocket to further a 324 00:14:12,600 --> 00:14:09,700 story that it had existed and really 325 00:14:15,420 --> 00:14:12,610 profiled the work of Roger Lear and the 326 00:14:18,420 --> 00:14:15,430 subtopic of alleged alien implants 327 00:14:18,810 --> 00:14:18,430 so for me that was Jeremy's best work to 328 00:14:21,270 --> 00:14:18,820 date 329 00:14:23,190 --> 00:14:21,280 I enjoyed the visuals of the lazar film 330 00:14:25,710 --> 00:14:23,200 I enjoyed the topic of the lazar film 331 00:14:28,440 --> 00:14:25,720 and like I said as a UFO guy I thought 332 00:14:31,830 --> 00:14:28,450 it was fun yeah jeremy has hinted that a 333 00:14:35,670 --> 00:14:31,840 nano man who was featured heavily in the 334 00:14:38,760 --> 00:14:35,680 alien scalpel film will have his day he 335 00:14:42,360 --> 00:14:38,770 said so I think we can expect a lot more 336 00:14:45,060 --> 00:14:42,370 on the testing front yeah that's awesome 337 00:14:48,030 --> 00:14:45,070 I I do agree when Jeremy focuses his 338 00:14:50,190 --> 00:14:48,040 lens on individuals without archival 339 00:14:52,860 --> 00:14:50,200 footage I think I think that is when we 340 00:14:55,830 --> 00:14:52,870 get the best stuff out of them Jason so 341 00:14:57,660 --> 00:14:55,840 now I I I'm gonna I'm gonna retract my 342 00:15:00,720 --> 00:14:57,670 statement and I'm gonna go with you man 343 00:15:02,850 --> 00:15:00,730 I really did enjoy patient 17 is that 344 00:15:04,080 --> 00:15:02,860 what it was officially called I think I 345 00:15:06,180 --> 00:15:04,090 think that's what I was called yeah yeah 346 00:15:08,640 --> 00:15:06,190 that is a really good point it was 347 00:15:10,350 --> 00:15:08,650 investigative filmmaking edits at its 348 00:15:13,290 --> 00:15:10,360 finest you know from beginning to end 349 00:15:15,090 --> 00:15:13,300 and I think now you know Jeremy doesn't 350 00:15:17,430 --> 00:15:15,100 have much more to rely on in terms of 351 00:15:19,560 --> 00:15:17,440 naps investigative work as his mentor 352 00:15:21,270 --> 00:15:19,570 and I I certainly respect him for doing 353 00:15:24,090 --> 00:15:21,280 something like that bringing these cases 354 00:15:26,790 --> 00:15:24,100 to light again but I look forward to see 355 00:15:29,310 --> 00:15:26,800 what he decides to do next after he 356 00:15:31,020 --> 00:15:29,320 rests after these two films have come 357 00:15:33,060 --> 00:15:31,030 out in the past two months with him so 358 00:15:34,740 --> 00:15:33,070 well we'll give him a little break 359 00:15:36,360 --> 00:15:34,750 before we start pushing him but the real 360 00:15:38,190 --> 00:15:36,370 debate is yet to come on 361 00:15:40,560 --> 00:15:38,200 Baltazar I think now that the film is 362 00:15:43,650 --> 00:15:40,570 out there to the mainstream for good and 363 00:15:45,300 --> 00:15:43,660 bad the real debate is just beginning so 364 00:15:48,120 --> 00:15:45,310 I'm sure with only a lot more of that 365 00:15:50,790 --> 00:15:48,130 and like you mentioned on your recent 366 00:15:54,720 --> 00:15:50,800 episode Ryan with John Greenwald I think 367 00:15:58,410 --> 00:15:54,730 the biggest plus of this whole thing is 368 00:16:01,350 --> 00:15:58,420 that Bob Lazar is in the news again Bob 369 00:16:04,620 --> 00:16:01,360 Lazar the story you know even in UFO 370 00:16:08,610 --> 00:16:04,630 circles had largely kind of fizzled out 371 00:16:11,370 --> 00:16:08,620 it was gone from our from the topic of 372 00:16:16,650 --> 00:16:11,380 conversation but here it is you know 373 00:16:18,060 --> 00:16:16,660 again in media major media outlets kids 374 00:16:21,780 --> 00:16:18,070 are watching this movie it's been the 375 00:16:23,640 --> 00:16:21,790 number one movie on iTunes so new people 376 00:16:26,970 --> 00:16:23,650 are discovering the story of Bob Lazar 377 00:16:29,100 --> 00:16:26,980 and again regardless of what side of 378 00:16:31,950 --> 00:16:29,110 that debate you're on Pro 379 00:16:34,590 --> 00:16:31,960 or con with Lazarre it's still an 380 00:16:36,900 --> 00:16:34,600 important piece of UFO history it's a 381 00:16:38,460 --> 00:16:36,910 story that we should be aware about it's 382 00:16:39,660 --> 00:16:38,470 something that we should research it's 383 00:16:42,600 --> 00:16:39,670 something that we should form opinions 384 00:16:45,270 --> 00:16:42,610 about and we've got a new generation a 385 00:16:49,080 --> 00:16:45,280 fresh crop of people who are discovering 386 00:16:51,510 --> 00:16:49,090 Bob Lazar and the area 51 story as told 387 00:16:53,340 --> 00:16:51,520 by Lazar for the first time I love it 388 00:16:55,410 --> 00:16:53,350 yeah and I mean my girlfriend who 389 00:16:57,930 --> 00:16:55,420 thought Bob Lazar was a total con man a 390 00:17:00,210 --> 00:16:57,940 fraud before she left the film saying I 391 00:17:01,890 --> 00:17:00,220 actually I believe that something 392 00:17:02,340 --> 00:17:01,900 happened to him and I don't think he's 393 00:17:03,750 --> 00:17:02,350 lying 394 00:17:05,910 --> 00:17:03,760 so right there that was enough for me 395 00:17:08,699 --> 00:17:05,920 having someone that close to me who is a 396 00:17:11,610 --> 00:17:08,709 true skeptic through and through say wow 397 00:17:13,860 --> 00:17:11,620 that that actually I believe something 398 00:17:16,199 --> 00:17:13,870 happened that was enough for me to leave 399 00:17:18,150 --> 00:17:16,209 being like okay conversations starting 400 00:17:20,579 --> 00:17:18,160 now but um I want to move the 401 00:17:22,699 --> 00:17:20,589 conversation guys to some some savings 402 00:17:25,620 --> 00:17:22,709 that happened this year that were pretty 403 00:17:28,650 --> 00:17:25,630 interesting and a lot of these I have to 404 00:17:31,170 --> 00:17:28,660 add came from Tyler rogue away who Jason 405 00:17:31,680 --> 00:17:31,180 I know you you interviewed Tyler am I 406 00:17:34,260 --> 00:17:31,690 correct 407 00:17:36,990 --> 00:17:34,270 now that's right yeah so this guy works 408 00:17:39,990 --> 00:17:37,000 for a website called the war zone and 409 00:17:42,150 --> 00:17:40,000 he's bringing these military UFO cases 410 00:17:43,950 --> 00:17:42,160 delight that a lot of us didn't really 411 00:17:47,700 --> 00:17:43,960 know about and once that it sort of been 412 00:17:49,260 --> 00:17:47,710 circulating in you know military outlets 413 00:17:52,320 --> 00:17:49,270 other you know rather than the 414 00:17:54,630 --> 00:17:52,330 mainstream and whatnot so the before we 415 00:17:56,610 --> 00:17:54,640 get to sort of the ones he he was 416 00:17:59,910 --> 00:17:56,620 looking at we had this Ireland sighting 417 00:18:02,760 --> 00:17:59,920 on November 9th where multiple pilots 418 00:18:04,890 --> 00:18:02,770 saw these speeding bright lights this 419 00:18:10,440 --> 00:18:04,900 was later confirmed by two pilots you 420 00:18:13,050 --> 00:18:10,450 can hear the actual audio from this ok 421 00:18:16,320 --> 00:18:13,060 so there's nothing showing on either 422 00:18:17,700 --> 00:18:16,330 primary or secondary ok it was really so 423 00:18:22,230 --> 00:18:17,710 far just like you said they love the 424 00:18:24,450 --> 00:18:22,240 surface yes yes alongside Estes it's 425 00:18:26,880 --> 00:18:24,460 huge hell of a now let's have a run 426 00:18:28,590 --> 00:18:26,890 rapidly we're to the north we saw bright 427 00:18:30,210 --> 00:18:28,600 light as many since this here that is 428 00:18:31,710 --> 00:18:30,220 very high speed and here it is one 429 00:18:33,270 --> 00:18:31,720 duration you didn't think it was very 430 00:18:35,850 --> 00:18:33,280 likely from this record to this one 431 00:18:38,340 --> 00:18:35,860 vision was activity this is multiple 432 00:18:41,310 --> 00:18:38,350 objects follows a sort of the projection 433 00:18:43,020 --> 00:18:41,320 very process where we were okay left off 434 00:18:46,409 --> 00:18:43,030 Uganda is their direction it was thrown 435 00:18:49,529 --> 00:18:46,419 in or anything the budget all that all 436 00:18:51,720 --> 00:18:49,539 that or let my opposition to bright 437 00:18:56,760 --> 00:18:51,730 light why deduct off you thank you 438 00:18:58,350 --> 00:18:56,770 thought it was acutely the pilot said it 439 00:19:00,110 --> 00:18:58,360 was moving fast it seemed to come up 440 00:19:03,350 --> 00:19:00,120 over the left hand side of their planes 441 00:19:05,789 --> 00:19:03,360 rapidly rapidly veered to the north and 442 00:19:08,580 --> 00:19:05,799 disappeared at a very high speed 443 00:19:10,500 --> 00:19:08,590 this one really made the rounds really 444 00:19:13,440 --> 00:19:10,510 quick and I think again it's because 445 00:19:14,640 --> 00:19:13,450 pilots reported this and it's still 446 00:19:17,220 --> 00:19:14,650 being investigated 447 00:19:19,590 --> 00:19:17,230 apparently so a lot of people believe it 448 00:19:21,000 --> 00:19:19,600 could be meteorites but um that's yet to 449 00:19:22,680 --> 00:19:21,010 be decided 450 00:19:25,279 --> 00:19:22,690 so do any of you guys have any other 451 00:19:28,260 --> 00:19:25,289 knowledge on this case any follow-ups 452 00:19:30,240 --> 00:19:28,270 well unfortunately yeah as far as I know 453 00:19:32,130 --> 00:19:30,250 there has been no follow-up and that's 454 00:19:34,380 --> 00:19:32,140 the frustrating thing with UFO research 455 00:19:36,960 --> 00:19:34,390 and even when there's a great story that 456 00:19:39,840 --> 00:19:36,970 hits mainstream media outlets around the 457 00:19:42,600 --> 00:19:39,850 world and seems to be all they're all 458 00:19:44,159 --> 00:19:42,610 the rage at the time it's likely all 459 00:19:46,890 --> 00:19:44,169 you're going to ever hear about that 460 00:19:48,539 --> 00:19:46,900 particular case because there is no 461 00:19:51,299 --> 00:19:48,549 follow-up there is no additional 462 00:19:54,799 --> 00:19:51,309 information that comes out the reporters 463 00:19:58,080 --> 00:19:54,809 who report it usually report the initial 464 00:19:59,940 --> 00:19:58,090 instance but they don't do the follow-up 465 00:20:03,390 --> 00:19:59,950 and that's where Tyler drug away you 466 00:20:04,649 --> 00:20:03,400 mentioned is a true remarkable 467 00:20:07,380 --> 00:20:04,659 journalist journalist through and 468 00:20:09,570 --> 00:20:07,390 through because he does the leg work he 469 00:20:12,690 --> 00:20:09,580 does contact everybody he can think of 470 00:20:14,669 --> 00:20:12,700 from military and government to airports 471 00:20:16,799 --> 00:20:14,679 to pilots and tries to get the full 472 00:20:19,140 --> 00:20:16,809 story and continues to follow up until 473 00:20:21,720 --> 00:20:19,150 he can get a follow up story or some 474 00:20:23,940 --> 00:20:21,730 more answers to further develop that 475 00:20:26,250 --> 00:20:23,950 story or add to that story with Ireland 476 00:20:28,289 --> 00:20:26,260 I haven't seen any of that but I did see 477 00:20:30,659 --> 00:20:28,299 you know you certainly get a lot of this 478 00:20:33,480 --> 00:20:30,669 to where you have some scientists who 479 00:20:35,820 --> 00:20:33,490 like to chime in and without even 480 00:20:38,039 --> 00:20:35,830 bothering bothering to read the the 481 00:20:41,460 --> 00:20:38,049 initial reports form an opinion about 482 00:20:43,320 --> 00:20:41,470 what the UFO was and in this case we saw 483 00:20:44,700 --> 00:20:43,330 a lot of that because even one of the 484 00:20:46,680 --> 00:20:44,710 pilots suggested that it might be a 485 00:20:49,890 --> 00:20:46,690 meteor or another object making some 486 00:20:52,200 --> 00:20:49,900 kind of reentry however one of the 487 00:20:56,580 --> 00:20:52,210 pilots described the object 488 00:21:00,210 --> 00:20:56,590 as climbing away at an incredible speed 489 00:21:02,460 --> 00:21:00,220 you know things meteors or things 490 00:21:04,650 --> 00:21:02,470 entering the atmosphere don't climb yeah 491 00:21:07,730 --> 00:21:04,660 I know these audio and what's really 492 00:21:10,140 --> 00:21:07,740 interesting is getting back to Rogo a he 493 00:21:12,510 --> 00:21:10,150 like you said Jason he puts the legwork 494 00:21:15,540 --> 00:21:12,520 in and I have to read this quote by him 495 00:21:17,580 --> 00:21:15,550 that I found in an article because a lot 496 00:21:19,800 --> 00:21:17,590 of people think that a lot of people in 497 00:21:22,530 --> 00:21:19,810 the aviation field or aerospace may not 498 00:21:25,230 --> 00:21:22,540 be interested in UFOs and as a 499 00:21:27,510 --> 00:21:25,240 journalist directly speaking to these 500 00:21:29,700 --> 00:21:27,520 people rogue away says I'll tell you 501 00:21:32,340 --> 00:21:29,710 anyone that is in the aerospace world 502 00:21:34,350 --> 00:21:32,350 and journalism and tell you that they 503 00:21:35,760 --> 00:21:34,360 have no interest in the legacy of UFOs 504 00:21:38,400 --> 00:21:35,770 and the whole history that goes along 505 00:21:40,080 --> 00:21:38,410 with it is lying to you it is an 506 00:21:42,480 --> 00:21:40,090 interesting thing even for the sake of 507 00:21:44,640 --> 00:21:42,490 Lauren intrigue so I have followed it 508 00:21:47,670 --> 00:21:44,650 very closely I think that's really 509 00:21:49,430 --> 00:21:47,680 that's very telling that you know pilots 510 00:21:51,690 --> 00:21:49,440 are interested in these things 511 00:21:53,340 --> 00:21:51,700 aviation people are interested in these 512 00:21:56,100 --> 00:21:53,350 things and he's the one bringing that 513 00:21:59,040 --> 00:21:56,110 legitimacy to these cases we have the 514 00:22:03,330 --> 00:21:59,050 one in Arizona in February again two 515 00:22:06,690 --> 00:22:03,340 pilots saw a flying saucer passed over 516 00:22:28,080 --> 00:22:06,700 their planes and there's audio of this 517 00:22:32,160 --> 00:22:28,090 one as well I don't know what was at 518 00:22:33,390 --> 00:22:32,170 least two 3,000 feet above the top we 519 00:22:35,730 --> 00:22:33,400 have audio 520 00:22:38,130 --> 00:22:35,740 you know testimony of these things 521 00:22:39,600 --> 00:22:38,140 happening which i think is really 522 00:22:42,050 --> 00:22:39,610 interesting and did we also have a 523 00:22:44,730 --> 00:22:42,060 California Oregon case earlier there was 524 00:22:46,590 --> 00:22:44,740 Oregon Washington area 525 00:22:49,230 --> 00:22:46,600 yeah Portland Yeah right your neck of 526 00:22:53,520 --> 00:22:49,240 the woods Maureen right yeah so that was 527 00:22:55,220 --> 00:22:53,530 the where they were intercepted Scranton 528 00:22:59,850 --> 00:22:55,230 they were trying to scramble 529 00:23:02,760 --> 00:22:59,860 yeah f-15s the 15s and I mean they did 530 00:23:04,680 --> 00:23:02,770 they had multiple commercial aircraft in 531 00:23:05,440 --> 00:23:04,690 the sky and this we're talking about 532 00:23:09,039 --> 00:23:05,450 something that happened 533 00:23:11,980 --> 00:23:09,049 17 now this was in October 2017 but but 534 00:23:14,230 --> 00:23:11,990 similar situation where ground crew was 535 00:23:16,029 --> 00:23:14,240 working with commercial aircraft in the 536 00:23:17,620 --> 00:23:16,039 sky to try to figure out what this thing 537 00:23:19,870 --> 00:23:17,630 was because commercial aircraft were 538 00:23:22,509 --> 00:23:19,880 spotting this UFO flying over Portland 539 00:23:24,070 --> 00:23:22,519 and these planes were seeing it but the 540 00:23:26,680 --> 00:23:24,080 ground people they had it on radar 541 00:23:29,080 --> 00:23:26,690 momentarily but didn't have it fighter 542 00:23:30,879 --> 00:23:29,090 jets were scrambled fighter jets got up 543 00:23:34,149 --> 00:23:30,889 there they couldn't find the thing and 544 00:23:37,350 --> 00:23:34,159 again thanks to Tyler rogue way I mean 545 00:23:39,430 --> 00:23:37,360 all of this stuff is is available on FAA 546 00:23:43,509 --> 00:23:39,440 recording so you can listen to the 547 00:23:45,159 --> 00:23:43,519 entire sort of chaotic moments on on on 548 00:23:46,570 --> 00:23:45,169 this recording and hear the 549 00:23:49,269 --> 00:23:46,580 conversations they're having trying to 550 00:23:51,100 --> 00:23:49,279 figure out what this object is trying to 551 00:23:53,889 --> 00:23:51,110 you know figure out they should scramble 552 00:23:55,960 --> 00:23:53,899 fighters trying to figure out what the 553 00:23:58,779 --> 00:23:55,970 procedure is when this stuff happens 554 00:24:00,580 --> 00:23:58,789 okay 31 and for act number one sometimes 555 00:24:02,980 --> 00:24:00,590 early mess level four three so wrong way 556 00:24:05,740 --> 00:24:02,990 that's for your face you know targets 557 00:24:09,039 --> 00:24:05,750 off the body though that 0 0 to 7 code 558 00:24:12,730 --> 00:24:09,049 moving very fast at 37,000 oh look at 559 00:24:14,620 --> 00:24:12,740 that thing yeah that's crazy 560

00:24:54,940 --> 00:24:51,830 intruder going southbound and then now 572 00:24:58,090 --> 00:24:54,950 apparently the Southwest 4712 573 00:25:00,190 --> 00:24:58,100 these and aircrafts off his right side 574 00:25:02,649 --> 00:25:00,200 about as one o'clock in ten miles going 575 00:25:04,539 --> 00:25:02,659 northbound at three seven zero we don't 576 00:25:09,039 --> 00:25:04,549 have anything on radar anymore or 577 00:25:10,990 --> 00:25:09,049 anything like that okay yeah it's not my 578 00:25:13,409 --> 00:25:11,000 primary zone I don't and we don't see 579 00:25:16,370 --> 00:25:13,419 any primaries or anything there I will 580 00:25:18,919 --> 00:25:16,380 okay yeah that's alright you know 581 00:25:22,640 --> 00:25:18,929 our supervisors are calling all the 582 00:25:24,320 --> 00:25:22,650 appropriate people stuff and if you have 583 00:25:26,690 --> 00:25:24,330 any idea what kind of craft it is now 584 00:25:28,400 --> 00:25:26,700 I've asked them and he doesn't he said 585 00:25:31,039 --> 00:25:28,410 it's about his one to two o'clock and 586 00:25:32,930 --> 00:25:31,049 ten miles off is right side now okay 587 00:25:34,880 --> 00:25:32,940 thing like they have no idea what's 588 00:25:36,080 --> 00:25:34,890 going on and that's really freaky they 589 00:25:38,120 --> 00:25:36,090 don't they don't know what to do and a 590 00:25:40,960 --> 00:25:38,130 similar thing happened in Arizona like 591 00:25:43,940 --> 00:25:40,970 yeah they knew that they had this 592 00:25:45,380 --> 00:25:43,950 unidentified craft but they couldn't 593 00:25:48,350 --> 00:25:45,390 find it they couldn't figure out what it 594 00:25:50,720 --> 00:25:48,360 was one thing I want to add to that you 595 00:25:52,789 --> 00:25:50,730 know just reading the articles you know 596 00:25:55,850 --> 00:25:52,799 every time a pilot or somebody with 597 00:25:57,470 --> 00:25:55,860 aviation experience has a sighting the 598 00:25:59,270 --> 00:25:57,480 stories tend to when more credibility 599 00:26:01,070 --> 00:25:59,280 just because of their experience so 600 00:26:02,180 --> 00:26:01,080 those stories you know like once again 601 00:26:02,779 --> 00:26:02,190 it's easier for those getting the 602 00:26:04,430 --> 00:26:02,789 mainstream's 603 00:26:06,799 --> 00:26:04,440 you know as opposed like the average Joe 604 00:26:07,970 --> 00:26:06,809 sing one so you know reading the 605 00:26:10,370 --> 00:26:07,980 articles you know they obviously have to 606 00:26:12,470 --> 00:26:10,380 have quotes from the witnesses the piles 607 00:26:13,909 --> 00:26:12,480 themselves and any good article needs to 608 00:26:15,470 --> 00:26:13,919 have both sides and you know usually you 609 00:26:17,690 --> 00:26:15,480 said they'll interview a scientist but 610 00:26:18,980 --> 00:26:17,700 usually you know the problem with it 611 00:26:20,990 --> 00:26:18,990 being a one-and-done story without a 612 00:26:23,090 --> 00:26:21,000 follow-up is the sciences is basically 613 00:26:24,649 --> 00:26:23,100 giving just an opinion and a lot of 614 00:26:26,659 --> 00:26:24,659 things I read on the juries and stories 615 00:26:28,370 --> 00:26:26,669 were oh it's probably a meteorite or 616 00:26:30,649 --> 00:26:28,380 it's probably this but there's no really 617 00:26:32,539 --> 00:26:30,659 investigation then it's dropped and you 618 00:26:34,730 --> 00:26:32,549 know a lot of the websites are doing 619 00:26:36,500 --> 00:26:34,740 these cute little sub heads or is it a 620 00:26:37,669 --> 00:26:36,510 weather balloon like you know the same 621 00:26:39,140 --> 00:26:37,679 they're bringing those same old jokes 622 00:26:41,090 --> 00:26:39,150 out again 623 00:26:43,010 --> 00:26:41,100 so the fact that like I said that it's 624 00:26:45,529 --> 00:26:43,020 being reported by you know these people 625 00:26:47,450 --> 00:26:45,539 with aviation experience I think that's 626 00:26:49,310 --> 00:26:47,460 a good thing because it's you know these 627 00:26:51,649 --> 00:26:49,320 stories are creeping more into the 628 00:26:54,220 --> 00:26:51,659 mainstream just because of you know 629 00:26:57,380 --> 00:26:54,230 their credentials and I will say that 630 00:27:00,169 --> 00:26:57,390 the reason that I highly recommend and 631 00:27:03,080 --> 00:27:00,179 do pay attention to the work that Tyler 632 00:27:04,760 --> 00:27:03,090 rug away does on these stories is he he 633 00:27:08,270 --> 00:27:04,770 brings a unique perspective he 634 00:27:09,830 --> 00:27:08,280 specializes in military aviation so he 635 00:27:12,740 --> 00:27:09,840 looks at this from a curiosity 636 00:27:16,159 --> 00:27:12,750 standpoint you know being very he's a 637 00:27:19,130 --> 00:27:16,169 he's a well-read individual very very 638 00:27:21,080 --> 00:27:19,140 much knowledgeable about technology and 639 00:27:23,480 --> 00:27:21,090 craft that the military has in 640 00:27:26,390 --> 00:27:23,490 development and follows these things 641 00:27:29,419 --> 00:27:26,400 closely so when he hears about something 642 00:27:30,510 --> 00:27:29,429 that doesn't fit anything that he's 643 00:27:35,430 --> 00:27:30,520 following at all 644 00:27:37,620 --> 00:27:35,440 hee hee homes on that and wants to use 645 00:27:39,270 --> 00:27:37,630 every resource available to try to find 646 00:27:41,520 --> 00:27:39,280 more information about it to possibly 647 00:27:43,890 --> 00:27:41,530 say oh yeah that could be this this 648 00:27:47,100 --> 00:27:43,900 secret thing we've been hinted that then 649 00:27:48,690 --> 00:27:47,110 he is working on and that was those 650 00:27:50,940 --> 00:27:48,700 answers and those things don't don't 651 00:27:52,890 --> 00:27:50,950 align then he gets really excited and 652 00:27:55,620 --> 00:27:52,900 tries to follow up and I just really 653 00:27:57,780 --> 00:27:55,630 love his work he has connections and 654 00:28:01,230 --> 00:27:57,790 resources that a lot of us don't have in 655 00:28:03,870 --> 00:28:01,240 sort of the the outside journalism world 656 00:28:06,570 --> 00:28:03,880 so I really look forward to more stuff 657 00:28:08,700 --> 00:28:06,580 to come from him I know at least for me 658 00:28:10,650 --> 00:28:08,710 he's going to be my UFO researcher of 659 00:28:13,920 --> 00:28:10,660 the year that's for damn sure 660 00:28:17,130 --> 00:28:13,930 but moving a little away from UFOs guys 661 00:28:19,650 --> 00:28:17,140 and to the possibility of alien life we 662 00:28:22,380 --> 00:28:19,660 had some really like groundbreaking 663 00:28:25,440 --> 00:28:22,390 stuff happened this past year late 2017 664 00:28:27,960 --> 00:28:25,450 early 2018 and for the first time in 665 00:28:30,780 --> 00:28:27,970 history scientists have detected the 666 00:28:34,470 --> 00:28:30,790 first interstellar object ever observed 667 00:28:35,820 --> 00:28:34,480 now this is amazing in my opinion we're 668 00:28:37,580 --> 00:28:35,830 talking about oh mooie-mooie 669 00:28:40,410 --> 00:28:37,590 avi Loeb chair of the Harvard University 670 00:28:42,510 --> 00:28:40,420 astronomy department said oh mooie-mooie 671 00:28:44,940 --> 00:28:42,520 did not behave like an ordinary asteroid 672 00:28:46,860 --> 00:28:44,950 or give off gas like a comet there 673 00:28:49,170 --> 00:28:46,870 seemed to be an extra force that is 674 00:28:52,590 --> 00:28:49,180 pushing it and it's not clear what this 675 00:28:54,510 --> 00:28:52,600 push is from in an upcoming paper he and 676 00:28:57,390 --> 00:28:54,520 a colleague offer what they call a more 677 00:28:59,640 --> 00:28:57,400 exotic scenario Oh mwah mwah maybe a 678 00:29:01,830 --> 00:28:59,650 fully operational probe sent 679 00:29:03,810 --> 00:29:01,840 intentionally to earth vicinity by an 680 00:29:06,000 --> 00:29:03,820 alien civilization this thing kind of 681 00:29:07,290 --> 00:29:06,010 made a comeback when Harvard scientists 682 00:29:10,800 --> 00:29:07,300 wrote a paper about it 683 00:29:12,120 --> 00:29:10,810 claiming that it could be aliens now I 684 00:29:14,070 --> 00:29:12,130 know that's you know that's a very 685 00:29:16,470 --> 00:29:14,080 hypothetical thing and of course every 686 00:29:19,980 --> 00:29:16,480 news outlet grapples onto that one 687 00:29:22,710 --> 00:29:19,990 little quote that they say but um very 688 00:29:25,110 --> 00:29:22,720 fascinating this huge elongated object 689 00:29:27,120 --> 00:29:25,120 that came into our solar system hung out 690 00:29:30,360 --> 00:29:27,130 for a little bit and made some really 691 00:29:31,860 --> 00:29:30,370 odd maneuvers and took off we'll 692 00:29:33,720 --> 00:29:31,870 probably never see it again but who 693 00:29:36,270 --> 00:29:33,730 knows but what do you guys make up the 694 00:29:41,970 --> 00:29:36,280 whole Oh mu a mu uh incident where do 695 00:29:43,950 --> 00:29:41,980 you all stand on this thing it's hard to 696 00:29:46,320 --> 00:29:43,960 say I mean because you know there 697 00:29:49,530 --> 00:29:46,330 our there's some research to suggest 698 00:29:53,160 --> 00:29:49,540 that the kind of movement it had could 699 00:29:56,610 --> 00:29:53,170 be similar to resulting from gases from 700 00:29:58,830 --> 00:29:56,620 a comet but could it be an alien probe 701 00:30:01,890 --> 00:29:58,840 well we can't really say it couldn't be 702 00:30:03,390 --> 00:30:01,900 because we can't see it anymore and we 703 00:30:06,120 --> 00:30:03,400 didn't get a good enough look at it 704 00:30:07,740 --> 00:30:06,130 so maybe but I think it's more 705 00:30:09,180 --> 00:30:07,750 fascinating you know that this is the 706 00:30:12,900 --> 00:30:09,190 first object we've spotted from 707 00:30:15,450 --> 00:30:12,910 interstellar space and that they believe 708 00:30:18,170 --> 00:30:15,460 that there's at least four other objects 709 00:30:22,680 --> 00:30:18,180 that could be of interstellar origin 710 00:30:25,050 --> 00:30:22,690 currently bouncing around that you know 711 00:30:28,500 --> 00:30:25,060 could be hiding amongst all the the 712 00:30:30,360 --> 00:30:28,510 other space debris and I don't know it's 713 00:30:32,940 --> 00:30:30,370 it's kind of fascinating or they're just 714 00:30:37,530 --> 00:30:32,950 a bunch of like creepy alien drones 715 00:30:39,900 --> 00:30:37,540 hanging out in our solar system it's not 716 00:30:42,630 --> 00:30:39,910 that far-fetched I mean we say probes to 717 00:30:45,270 --> 00:30:42,640 other planets granted within our own 718 00:30:47,310 --> 00:30:45,280 solar system but but just look at Star 719 00:30:49,560 --> 00:30:47,320 Trek I mean yes it's science fiction but 720 00:30:52,260 --> 00:30:49,570 is it really that far-fetched to think 721 00:30:55,500 --> 00:30:52,270 that we could advance to that in the 722 00:30:57,300 --> 00:30:55,510 relatively near future right I mean we 723 00:31:00,240 --> 00:30:57,310 just had we just had one of our objects 724 00:31:01,410 --> 00:31:00,250 go interstellar right so yeah I mean you 725 00:31:04,230 --> 00:31:01,420 make a great point Ryan 726 00:31:07,800 --> 00:31:04,240 I mean extraterrestrials aside this is 727 00:31:09,930 --> 00:31:07,810 huge news extremely exciting I mean 728 00:31:11,790 --> 00:31:09,940 big-time stuff is happening in space all 729 00:31:14,360 --> 00:31:11,800 the time now and we do live in science 730 00:31:17,370 --> 00:31:14,370 fiction times and it's super exciting so 731 00:31:20,430 --> 00:31:17,380 removing the alien possibility it's 732 00:31:22,500 --> 00:31:20,440 exciting on its on its own but yeah I 733 00:31:24,540 --> 00:31:22,510 think responsible journalists and 734 00:31:26,640 --> 00:31:24,550 responsible scientists certainly take 735 00:31:29,340 --> 00:31:26,650 note of this and see the unusual 736 00:31:31,320 --> 00:31:29,350 behaviors and certainly considering all 737 00:31:33,990 --> 00:31:31,330 of the unknowns that exists with this 738 00:31:38,520 --> 00:31:34,000 thing you can't rule out the possibility 739 00:31:41,360 --> 00:31:38,530 that this is something you know that has 740 00:31:44,040 --> 00:31:41,370 an extraterrestrial an intelligent 741 00:31:45,930 --> 00:31:44,050 extraterrestrial component to it that 742 00:31:48,090 --> 00:31:45,940 doesn't mean we're saying that it is but 743 00:31:50,040 --> 00:31:48,100 being a responsible scientist and not 744 00:31:51,660 --> 00:31:50,050 having all the answers you do need to 745 00:31:53,040 --> 00:31:51,670 keep an open mind and you do have to 746 00:31:54,720 --> 00:31:53,050 weigh all the possibilities and that's 747 00:31:56,070 --> 00:31:54,730 certainly a possibility coming from a 748 00:31:56,649 --> 00:31:56,080 media standpoint you know it's 749 00:31:58,299 --> 00:31:56,659 interesting 750 00:31:59,259 --> 00:31:58,309 how you know around you made that joke 751 00:32:01,779 --> 00:31:59,269 you know they're playing in the 752 00:32:03,279 --> 00:32:01,789 headlines you know the alien aspect of 753 00:32:06,999 --> 00:32:03,289 it and I don't know if that's just kind 754 00:32:09,159 --> 00:32:07,009 of more a telling sign of how the media 755 00:32:10,899 --> 00:32:09,169 is more quick baby nowadays or just the 756 00:32:12,399 --> 00:32:10,909 fact that they're more open to running 757 00:32:14,139 --> 00:32:12,409 headlines like that in general 758 00:32:16,810 --> 00:32:14,149 that that's where they pull from that 759 00:32:19,960 --> 00:32:16,820 the fact that NASA centers are saying it 760 00:32:21,940 --> 00:32:19,970 could be aliens so either way you look 761 00:32:23,080 --> 00:32:21,950 at it I think you know you have this you 762 00:32:24,399 --> 00:32:23,090 know then potentially trying to 763 00:32:25,930 --> 00:32:24,409 sensationalize a little bit by running 764 00:32:27,789 --> 00:32:25,940 out in the head wine but also that's 765 00:32:29,680 --> 00:32:27,799 kind of the news too because you know 766 00:32:32,200 --> 00:32:29,690 maybe 20 years ago NASA scientists would 767 00:32:33,759 --> 00:32:32,210 have been so open to even state that 768 00:32:36,399 --> 00:32:33,769 claim so I think it's fascinating how 769 00:32:38,080 --> 00:32:36,409 it's been played out well in what's even 770 00:32:40,509 --> 00:32:38,090 more exciting too is because of this 771 00:32:42,849 --> 00:32:40,519 object they're building another 772 00:32:44,320 --> 00:32:42,859 telescope in Chile once it's completed 773 00:32:46,210 --> 00:32:44,330 they're gonna use it to search for 774 00:32:48,129 --> 00:32:46,220 similar objects like you said Maureen 775 00:32:51,330 --> 00:32:48,139 there are possibly other objects out 776 00:32:54,219 --> 00:32:51,340 there like this so now it's pushing 777 00:32:56,259 --> 00:32:54,229 scientists to fund these telescopes to 778 00:32:58,330 --> 00:32:56,269 look for more of them and you can't ask 779 00:33:00,070 --> 00:32:58,340 for more than that and you can't ask for 780 00:33:02,289 --> 00:33:00,080 more than all of these scientists 781 00:33:04,479 --> 00:33:02,299 writing new papers arguing comet 782 00:33:06,279 --> 00:33:04,489 asteroid something other than that it 783 00:33:08,019 --> 00:33:06,289 just keeps going and going and the fact 784 00:33:10,659 --> 00:33:08,029 that we don't have a clear answer yet of 785 00:33:12,940 --> 00:33:10,669 what this thing was that's actually 786 00:33:15,639 --> 00:33:12,950 exciting than giving an answer I think 787 00:33:18,430 --> 00:33:15,649 that unknown is what keeps us going and 788 00:33:20,109 --> 00:33:18,440 I think that's buried 100% yes yeah and 789 00:33:22,570 --> 00:33:20,119 Jason thanks for reminding me that 790 00:33:25,690 --> 00:33:22,580 Voyager 1 finally entered interstellar 791 00:33:29,589 --> 00:33:25,700 space this year totally forgot about 792 00:33:31,810 --> 00:33:29,599 that somehow but I think fascinating to 793 00:33:34,089 --> 00:33:31,820 think about too because on the other end 794 00:33:36,039 --> 00:33:34,099 let's say that intelligent planets out 795 00:33:39,430 --> 00:33:36,049 there and now they're possibly being 796 00:33:43,659 --> 00:33:39,440 exposed to their headlines and stuff 797 00:33:45,519 --> 00:33:43,669 from the seventies yeah that's a good 798 00:33:48,519 --> 00:33:45,529 point and you know we just landed on 799 00:33:50,799 --> 00:33:48,529 Mars again it's just it's so cool guys I 800 00:33:52,930 --> 00:33:50,809 think we're we're on the cusp of some 801 00:33:55,330 --> 00:33:52,940 really interesting scientific 802 00:33:56,889 --> 00:33:55,340 developments in terms of alien life and 803 00:33:57,820 --> 00:33:56,899 China is getting ready to land on the 804 00:34:01,539 --> 00:33:57,830 dark side of the moon 805 00:34:03,060 --> 00:34:01,549 boom all those conspiracies will now be 806 00:34:06,150 --> 00:34:03,070 solved I love it 807 00:34:09,600 --> 00:34:06,160 well here's another one to guys silvano 808 00:34:12,120 --> 00:34:09,610 p : bono of nasa's intelligent systems 809 00:34:15,090 --> 00:34:12,130 division recently wrote a research paper 810 00:34:18,060 --> 00:34:15,100 about extraterrestrials and he wants to 811 00:34:20,190 --> 00:34:18,070 keep people informed that you know 812 00:34:22,140 --> 00:34:20,200 aliens they may look different than what 813 00:34:24,690 --> 00:34:22,150 we expect and may be able to travel huge 814 00:34:26,430 --> 00:34:24,700 distances that's the biggest argument 815 00:34:28,919 --> 00:34:26,440 whenever any of us get asked you know 816 00:34:31,470 --> 00:34:28,929 how could aliens travel all this all 817 00:34:33,540 --> 00:34:31,480 this time in space there's no way they 818 00:34:36,240 --> 00:34:33,550 could ever get here this guy's being 819 00:34:38,280 --> 00:34:36,250 like you know chill out guys we have no 820 00:34:40,950 --> 00:34:38,290 idea what they're capable of what their 821 00:34:43,320 --> 00:34:40,960 makeup is we always go by what humans 822 00:34:45,690 --> 00:34:43,330 can do what our limitations are so I 823 00:34:48,600 --> 00:34:45,700 thought this is really cool that another 824 00:34:50,490 --> 00:34:48,610 NASA scientist is putting himself out 825 00:34:50,940 --> 00:34:50,500 there and saying this the headline is 826 00:34:55,770 --> 00:34:50,950 tiny 827 00:34:58,500 --> 00:34:55,780 aliens may have visited us and we just 828 00:35:01,080 --> 00:34:58,510 didn't know that's pretty cool it's 829 00:35:03,360 --> 00:35:01,090 super cool this was fantastic to read 830 00:35:05,940 --> 00:35:03,370 and again I applaud this guy because 831 00:35:08,640 --> 00:35:05,950 this is a responsible scientist in my 832 00:35:11,310 --> 00:35:08,650 opinion he's keeping his mind open and 833 00:35:12,870 --> 00:35:11,320 exploring all possibilities and when 834 00:35:16,260 --> 00:35:12,880 we're dealing with something as strange 835 00:35:18,780 --> 00:35:16,270 and unknown as extraterrestrial life yes 836 00:35:20,700 --> 00:35:18,790 we have life as we know it as our 837 00:35:24,450 --> 00:35:20,710 baseline and in what we're we're working 838 00:35:26,190 --> 00:35:24,460 on we're working from but in the end we 839 00:35:29,360 --> 00:35:26,200 really don't know I mean the 840 00:35:32,400 --> 00:35:29,370 possibilities are endless so we have to 841 00:35:34,710 --> 00:35:32,410 understand what we're working with with 842 00:35:38,160 --> 00:35:34,720 our tool set but also understand it 843 00:35:41,310 --> 00:35:38,170 could be is so much bigger than that 844 00:35:44,070 --> 00:35:41,320 so I love that from that standpoint but 845 00:35:46,560 --> 00:35:44,080 this wants so many ridiculous headlines 846 00:35:49,440 --> 00:35:46,570 you know as all of these stories do 847 00:35:51,780 --> 00:35:49,450 because NASA scientists as aliens have 848 00:35:54,810 --> 00:35:51,790 already been here and all this stuff and 849 00:35:57,290 --> 00:35:54,820 I love that he's many times over said 850 00:36:00,000 --> 00:35:57,300 look all I was saying is we need to 851 00:36:01,320 --> 00:36:00,010 consider the possibilities not saying 852 00:36:01,710 --> 00:36:01,330 they've been here they may have been 853 00:36:07,530 --> 00:36:01,720 here 854 00:36:09,570 --> 00:36:07,540 guys we're gonna move on to to probably 855 00:36:12,060 --> 00:36:09,580 the bulk of our conversation here's 856 00:36:14,190 --> 00:36:12,070 something we are all familiar with the 857 00:36:16,770 --> 00:36:14,200 date of recording this is Thursday 858 00:36:19,320 --> 00:36:16,780 December 13th and it is mr. Tom doe 859 00:36:24,300 --> 00:36:19,330 his birthday so happy birthday Tom 860 00:36:26,610 --> 00:36:24,310 DeLonge happy birthday Tom I saw the the 861 00:36:28,650 --> 00:36:26,620 past interview with Tom DeLonge vtrene 862 00:36:31,260 --> 00:36:28,660 Maureen and Jason making the rounds 863 00:36:34,410 --> 00:36:31,270 today so that was really cool to see all 864 00:36:36,090 --> 00:36:34,420 of this stuff pre to the stars Academy 865 00:36:37,890 --> 00:36:36,100 well Tom I've been excited to talk to 866 00:36:39,450 --> 00:36:37,900 you about UFOs you've you've always been 867 00:36:42,570 --> 00:36:39,460 vocal about your interest in the subject 868 00:36:43,980 --> 00:36:42,580 right and you know it's interesting I 869 00:36:46,590 --> 00:36:43,990 don't think a lot of people understand 870 00:36:49,110 --> 00:36:46,600 that you've researched a subject for 871 00:36:51,900 --> 00:36:49,120 more than twenty years yeah and that's a 872 00:36:53,220 --> 00:36:51,910 lot more it's a longer time period than 873 00:36:54,750 --> 00:36:53,230 a lot of the leading researchers in the 874 00:36:57,180 --> 00:36:54,760 field right now a lot of researchers 875 00:36:58,680 --> 00:36:57,190 tend to dive into one area of it that's 876 00:37:00,930 --> 00:36:58,690 very hardcore you know hey I'm gonna 877 00:37:02,130 --> 00:37:00,940 write a book about Roswell or someone 878 00:37:04,080 --> 00:37:02,140 else comes in and says I'm gonna write a 879 00:37:07,020 --> 00:37:04,090 book just about you know majestic 12 880 00:37:09,600 --> 00:37:07,030 documents you know and I've I'm the kind 881 00:37:11,550 --> 00:37:09,610 of guy that you know I'm pretty broad 882 00:37:13,850 --> 00:37:11,560 about all the subjects I've gone deep on 883 00:37:16,320 --> 00:37:13,860 a lot of them but I've kind of surpassed 884 00:37:18,780 --> 00:37:16,330 the the icing on the cake and now I'm 885 00:37:20,340 --> 00:37:18,790 kind of digging down into you know the 886 00:37:22,200 --> 00:37:20,350 main ingredients of the cake you know 887 00:37:24,330 --> 00:37:22,210 but what would initially sparked your 888 00:37:25,890 --> 00:37:24,340 interest in the subject I one of my 889 00:37:28,140 --> 00:37:25,900 first memories is being a seventh grade 890 00:37:30,180 --> 00:37:28,150 where I was walking I had like an hour 891 00:37:32,250 --> 00:37:30,190 in junior high is like the first you 892 00:37:33,900 --> 00:37:32,260 know school kind of system in junior 893 00:37:36,090 --> 00:37:33,910 high level where you get to walk between 894 00:37:38,040 --> 00:37:36,100 classes so you have a few minutes I for 895 00:37:39,960 --> 00:37:38,050 some reason had more than a few minutes 896 00:37:41,130 --> 00:37:39,970 so I had to go to the library and I was 897 00:37:42,570 --> 00:37:41,140 walking in his library and I didn't read 898 00:37:44,010 --> 00:37:42,580 books at all then you know in school I 899 00:37:45,180 --> 00:37:44,020 was like books who wants three books you 900 00:37:46,470 --> 00:37:45,190 know I'm gonna skateboarding and stuff 901 00:37:47,970 --> 00:37:46,480 so I'm like well if have to read a book 902 00:37:50,220 --> 00:37:47,980 right now I want to really like any 903 00:37:52,290 --> 00:37:50,230 weird like UFO books and I don't even 904 00:37:54,180 --> 00:37:52,300 know why that came to my attention it 905 00:37:55,500 --> 00:37:54,190 was so odd because that's and all I 906 00:37:57,240 --> 00:37:55,510 found was a book that had something 907 00:37:59,250 --> 00:37:57,250 about one UFO and the Loch Ness monster 908 00:38:01,350 --> 00:37:59,260 but either way it was cool and it was in 909 00:38:03,210 --> 00:38:01,360 my school library and from that moment 910 00:38:05,340 --> 00:38:03,220 forward it really sparked my interest 911 00:38:06,780 --> 00:38:05,350 but it kind of there's a gap there until 912 00:38:09,150 --> 00:38:06,790 I was able to actually afford to buy a 913 00:38:12,690 --> 00:38:09,160 computer so computers were really 914 00:38:14,640 --> 00:38:12,700 happening when I was 20 and 21 that's 915 00:38:16,500 --> 00:38:14,650 like the beginning of the 90s like BAM 916 00:38:18,870 --> 00:38:16,510 things are happening with computers so I 917 00:38:20,340 --> 00:38:18,880 signed a record contract and got my 918 00:38:21,840 --> 00:38:20,350 first paycheck and the very first thing 919 00:38:23,790 --> 00:38:21,850 I did was I went out I bought this 920 00:38:26,730 --> 00:38:23,800 shitty like compact computer or 921 00:38:29,440 --> 00:38:26,740 something and I brought it home signed 922 00:38:31,900 --> 00:38:29,450 on and I think I just typed in like you 923 00:38:33,849 --> 00:38:31,910 photos or something or area51 I don't 924 00:38:36,040 --> 00:38:33,859 even know there's the common term but 925 00:38:38,500 --> 00:38:36,050 now we are in the thick of it guys it's 926 00:38:41,380 --> 00:38:38,510 been over a year since this thing took 927 00:38:45,220 --> 00:38:41,390 shape and since the New York Times story 928 00:38:47,980 --> 00:38:45,230 broke and we've had some interesting and 929 00:38:49,690 --> 00:38:47,990 not so interesting developments probably 930 00:38:51,760 --> 00:38:49,700 the biggest ones is the atom research 931 00:38:54,550 --> 00:38:51,770 project the acquisition and data 932 00:38:57,069 --> 00:38:54,560 analysis of materials very controversial 933 00:38:59,829 --> 00:38:57,079 project going on over to the Stars but 934 00:39:02,260 --> 00:38:59,839 where do we stand now guys you know it's 935 00:39:04,510 --> 00:39:02,270 been almost a year they wanted to raise 936 00:39:06,579 --> 00:39:04,520 around 50 million dollars for this 937 00:39:09,700 --> 00:39:06,589 project don't think they quite made it 938 00:39:12,160 --> 00:39:09,710 to that but it's been a heated debate 939 00:39:14,290 --> 00:39:12,170 within the UFO community for about a 940 00:39:17,470 --> 00:39:14,300 year now so let's lay it all out there 941 00:39:18,940 --> 00:39:17,480 guys where do you stand now and what can 942 00:39:21,250 --> 00:39:18,950 we expect from to the Stars in the 943 00:39:23,440 --> 00:39:21,260 future Mike let's start with you I think 944 00:39:24,760 --> 00:39:23,450 there's more optimism I think then last 945 00:39:27,190 --> 00:39:24,770 year I think there's more stuff to look 946 00:39:28,839 --> 00:39:27,200 forward to than this year the fact that 947 00:39:30,520 --> 00:39:28,849 you can machines documentary it's 948 00:39:32,470 --> 00:39:30,530 apparently finally coming out rumored 949 00:39:34,089 --> 00:39:32,480 movie deal and in the terms on the 950 00:39:36,460 --> 00:39:34,099 research side of it I know it's gonna be 951 00:39:38,530 --> 00:39:36,470 a divisive either way but I mean they're 952 00:39:40,540 --> 00:39:38,540 slowly getting stuff down there they're 953 00:39:41,859 --> 00:39:40,550 getting to the ball rolling and you know 954 00:39:43,329 --> 00:39:41,869 it's just from you know reading on all 955 00:39:46,000 --> 00:39:43,339 the Facebook message boards and you know 956 00:39:47,440 --> 00:39:46,010 there's always opposition with with this 957 00:39:49,390 --> 00:39:47,450 topic but you know they're actually 958 00:39:51,069 --> 00:39:49,400 getting people talking and you know 959 00:39:52,420 --> 00:39:51,079 again I think I said last year if that's 960 00:39:53,319 --> 00:39:52,430 the worst thing that happened I mean if 961 00:39:56,079 --> 00:39:53,329 that's the biggest thing that happened 962 00:39:57,609 --> 00:39:56,089 last year was getting you know this this 963 00:39:59,170 --> 00:39:57,619 mainstream press and getting people 964 00:40:01,180 --> 00:39:59,180 talking about the topic in a serious 965 00:40:02,440 --> 00:40:01,190 manner and being more open-minded terms 966 00:40:05,140 --> 00:40:02,450 of research than great but I think 967 00:40:07,059 --> 00:40:05,150 they're taking a step further and a lot 968 00:40:08,559 --> 00:40:07,069 of the credibility questions that kind 969 00:40:11,200 --> 00:40:08,569 of hamper them previously I think 970 00:40:12,280 --> 00:40:11,210 there's there's less of those yeah I 971 00:40:14,109 --> 00:40:12,290 think there's less of those going 972 00:40:15,730 --> 00:40:14,119 forward so I think 2019 is gonna be an 973 00:40:17,200 --> 00:40:15,740 interesting year and I just think people 974 00:40:20,020 --> 00:40:17,210 need be patient I think we said that 975 00:40:22,270 --> 00:40:20,030 last year too and you know these things 976 00:40:24,940 --> 00:40:22,280 take time even somebody with with Tom 977 00:40:26,380 --> 00:40:24,950 celebrity status to him you know these 978 00:40:28,059 --> 00:40:26,390 things take time it's not like he could 979 00:40:29,980 --> 00:40:28,069 just you know what you know write a 980 00:40:31,450 --> 00:40:29,990 check and boom we have disclosure the 981 00:40:33,550 --> 00:40:31,460 next day it's that's not how things work 982 00:40:35,829 --> 00:40:33,560 especially with such a sensitive topic 983 00:40:38,829 --> 00:40:35,839 so they said I think you know things are 984 00:40:40,180 --> 00:40:38,839 slowly rolling out and obviously it's 985 00:40:42,880 --> 00:40:40,190 not Romy out fast enough for some people 986 00:40:44,200 --> 00:40:42,890 the affair UFO community but 987 00:40:45,789 --> 00:40:44,210 I mean I don't they're not doing it for 988 00:40:47,740 --> 00:40:45,799 them they're doing it you know for 989 00:40:49,450 --> 00:40:47,750 everyone so I think you know people 990 00:40:51,039 --> 00:40:49,460 continue to beat me to be patient and 991 00:40:52,390 --> 00:40:51,049 just see where it goes you know like I 992 00:40:55,240 --> 00:40:52,400 said it you know people are obviously 993 00:40:57,700 --> 00:40:55,250 gonna jump you know the the fiction 994 00:40:58,990 --> 00:40:57,710 stuff that to the Stars is interested in 995 00:41:00,940 --> 00:40:59,000 doing you know so first thing people 996 00:41:02,650 --> 00:41:00,950 jump that and kind of poke poke at and 997 00:41:05,230 --> 00:41:02,660 say is this where my investment money's 998 00:41:07,329 --> 00:41:05,240 going no I mean obviously not I mean 999 00:41:08,620 --> 00:41:07,339 it's common sense that there's 1000 00:41:10,900 --> 00:41:08,630 production companies that are backing 1001 00:41:12,640 --> 00:41:10,910 this you know those projects but yeah 1002 00:41:14,230 --> 00:41:12,650 obviously that's the first thing that 1003 00:41:16,630 --> 00:41:14,240 people will go to you kind of detract 1004 00:41:18,460 --> 00:41:16,640 from it but at the same time you know we 1005 00:41:20,799 --> 00:41:18,470 have the Adams project we have material 1006 00:41:21,910 --> 00:41:20,809 that's apparently you know as you know 1007 00:41:23,559 --> 00:41:21,920 passed through earth earth Tech 1008 00:41:28,000 --> 00:41:23,569 International which isn't too far for me 1009 00:41:29,769 --> 00:41:28,010 in Texas so you know they're doing 1010 00:41:31,809 --> 00:41:29,779 things so I think people should continue 1011 00:41:32,140 --> 00:41:31,819 to be patient and see where goes from 1012 00:41:34,690 --> 00:41:32,150 there 1013 00:41:37,390 --> 00:41:34,700 we have multiple samples now from 1014 00:41:42,670 --> 00:41:37,400 multiple sources ranging a wide variety 1015 00:41:45,490 --> 00:41:42,680 of integrity even if the material goes 1016 00:41:48,039 --> 00:41:45,500 nowhere people are beginning to provide 1017 00:41:49,720 --> 00:41:48,049 us things I want to make sure that I 1018 00:41:51,549 --> 00:41:49,730 have a healthy dose of skepticism to 1019 00:41:53,259 --> 00:41:51,559 make sure I'm not blindly accepting 1020 00:41:55,870 --> 00:41:53,269 something because it's cool or neat or 1021 00:41:58,180 --> 00:41:55,880 new or something like that but the data 1022 00:41:59,920 --> 00:41:58,190 supports the decisions that we make the 1023 00:42:02,829 --> 00:41:59,930 dots that we connect the moves that we 1024 00:42:06,670 --> 00:42:02,839 made but I see it diligence being 1025 00:42:09,339 --> 00:42:06,680 applied to this it gives me optimism 1026 00:42:12,339 --> 00:42:09,349 then we stand a chance of being able to 1027 00:42:15,160 --> 00:42:12,349 make some real progress here we have to 1028 00:42:16,359 --> 00:42:15,170 do this the right way and the right way 1029 00:42:18,759 --> 00:42:16,369 is it necessary 1030 00:42:20,739 --> 00:42:18,769 right now way you know we may just be at 1031 00:42:22,420 --> 00:42:20,749 the beginning of the headwaters maybe 1032 00:42:24,370 --> 00:42:22,430 this we're just enough in a stream right 1033 00:42:26,380 --> 00:42:24,380 now and we're just at the very beginning 1034 00:42:28,920 --> 00:42:26,390 and it's just a small Creek but I think 1035 00:42:31,089 --> 00:42:28,930 eventually that waterfall will come 1036 00:42:34,749 --> 00:42:31,099 marine what do you think about all this 1037 00:42:37,660 --> 00:42:34,759 personally for me I think that there are 1038 00:42:40,180 --> 00:42:37,670 good and obviously like Mike said it's 1039 00:42:41,950 --> 00:42:40,190 been very divisive and bad things that 1040 00:42:44,380 --> 00:42:41,960 are coming out of this and it is 1041 00:42:46,930 --> 00:42:44,390 creating this incredible amount of 1042 00:42:48,880 --> 00:42:46,940 impatience with people I think the 1043 00:42:51,880 --> 00:42:48,890 better way to go about this is to have 1044 00:42:54,370 --> 00:42:51,890 zero expectations and then when they're 1045 00:42:57,190 --> 00:42:54,380 able to release whatever they can when 1046 00:42:58,930 --> 00:42:57,200 they can you know we might find out that 1047 00:43:01,359 --> 00:42:58,940 all the testing they're doing through 1048 00:43:05,170 --> 00:43:01,369 this atom project ends up being nothing 1049 00:43:07,749 --> 00:43:05,180 interesting or has an explanation or it 1050 00:43:10,480 --> 00:43:07,759 may be something that you know piques 1051 00:43:13,059 --> 00:43:10,490 people's interest and if we finally get 1052 00:43:14,950 --> 00:43:13,069 any results or trickled information 1053 00:43:16,450 --> 00:43:14,960 about this it's probably likely 1054 00:43:18,299 --> 00:43:16,460 something that would require more 1055 00:43:20,859 --> 00:43:18,309 testing and more testing because I 1056 00:43:24,130 --> 00:43:20,869 guarantee you they're not gonna come 1057 00:43:26,019 --> 00:43:24,140 let's say they test a piece of metal 1058 00:43:28,749 --> 00:43:26,029 that they believe to be of 1059 00:43:31,390 --> 00:43:28,759 extraterrestrial origin and they it 1060 00:43:33,849 --> 00:43:31,400 comes back an anomaly saying this is not 1061 00:43:37,059 --> 00:43:33,859 as some people have said manufactured on 1062 00:43:39,940 --> 00:43:37,069 earth this is from somewhere else it is 1063 00:43:42,430 --> 00:43:39,950 not naturally occurring here you are 1064 00:43:43,930 --> 00:43:42,440 make of what you will I guarantee you 1065 00:43:46,870 --> 00:43:43,940 not everyone's gonna be like oh that's 1066 00:43:48,249 --> 00:43:46,880 disclosure aliens exist problem solved 1067 00:43:50,529 --> 00:43:48,259 that's not going to be the way it works 1068 00:43:52,809 --> 00:43:50,539 so yes there's a lot of different facets 1069 00:43:55,779 --> 00:43:52,819 of what's happening with to the Stars 1070 00:43:58,509 --> 00:43:55,789 there's a lot of entertainment aspects 1071 00:44:01,420 --> 00:43:58,519 but again like Mike said the big thing 1072 00:44:04,599 --> 00:44:01,430 is getting a lot of positive press and 1073 00:44:06,519 --> 00:44:04,609 getting a lot more people to take this 1074 00:44:09,549 --> 00:44:06,529 subject a little more seriously and 1075 00:44:12,039 --> 00:44:09,559 realize that the government is involved 1076 00:44:13,690 --> 00:44:12,049 in this and there's other things going 1077 00:44:16,839 --> 00:44:13,700 on behind the scenes that we're not 1078 00:44:18,940 --> 00:44:16,849 aware of it this is a big picture and I 1079 00:44:20,680 --> 00:44:18,950 believe it will continue to be so one 1080 00:44:22,539 --> 00:44:20,690 thing I want to add I think Jason Kidd 1081 00:44:24,130 --> 00:44:22,549 kind of pile onto this - Jason could 1082 00:44:25,900 --> 00:44:24,140 attest to this I think you're a previous 1083 00:44:28,180 --> 00:44:25,910 suggestion you know your time is you 1084 00:44:29,440 --> 00:44:28,190 know we're to the stars and they're 1085 00:44:31,180 --> 00:44:29,450 starting out and 1086 00:44:33,340 --> 00:44:31,190 I've interviewed Tom and met him before 1087 00:44:37,240 --> 00:44:33,350 as well so like we kind of thought about 1088 00:44:38,980 --> 00:44:37,250 this but Tom is best when he's not fully 1089 00:44:41,080 --> 00:44:38,990 in charge he does his best work when 1090 00:44:42,940 --> 00:44:41,090 he's collaborating but he's not left to 1091 00:44:44,080 --> 00:44:42,950 his own devices and I'm not just talking 1092 00:44:45,970 --> 00:44:44,090 about musically I'm just talking about 1093 00:44:47,710 --> 00:44:45,980 in general and having something so 1094 00:44:49,120 --> 00:44:47,720 controlled like this I think it's a good 1095 00:44:51,310 --> 00:44:49,130 thing see he's not rushing to get 1096 00:44:53,140 --> 00:44:51,320 somehow everything is taking its time 1097 00:44:54,400 --> 00:44:53,150 this is the first time in his career in 1098 00:44:57,130 --> 00:44:54,410 a long long time that we've actually 1099 00:44:59,890 --> 00:44:57,140 seen something like this where he's 1100 00:45:03,010 --> 00:44:59,900 doing the the due diligence and things 1101 00:45:04,510 --> 00:45:03,020 are coming out organically you know and 1102 00:45:06,520 --> 00:45:04,520 it's he's taking his time 1103 00:45:08,710 --> 00:45:06,530 I think you know having these these 1104 00:45:11,320 --> 00:45:08,720 control mechanisms above them is only 1105 00:45:14,500 --> 00:45:11,330 going to make for better quality in 1106 00:45:16,960 --> 00:45:14,510 terms of the documentaries the the 1107 00:45:18,490 --> 00:45:16,970 fiction feature films and the research 1108 00:45:19,870 --> 00:45:18,500 in general so I think this is a good 1109 00:45:21,670 --> 00:45:19,880 thing that you know things are kind of 1110 00:45:24,430 --> 00:45:21,680 taking time and one thing I wanna say 1111 00:45:26,320 --> 00:45:24,440 add to a murine said you know you say 1112 00:45:28,660 --> 00:45:26,330 like say if they if something comes back 1113 00:45:31,600 --> 00:45:28,670 that they discover and what if it's not 1114 00:45:33,910 --> 00:45:31,610 you know if they said oh this is just a 1115 00:45:35,950 --> 00:45:33,920 piece of metal you know to the stars are 1116 00:45:37,000 --> 00:45:35,960 gonna get just ripped up by its 1117 00:45:39,970 --> 00:45:37,010 detractors so something really 1118 00:45:42,550 --> 00:45:39,980 interesting to see you know how much 1119 00:45:44,470 --> 00:45:42,560 leeway they get in terms of the reaction 1120 00:45:47,320 --> 00:45:44,480 from the public I wonder I wonder if 1121 00:45:49,720 --> 00:45:47,330 that's the case if they just kind of 1122 00:45:51,190 --> 00:45:49,730 avoid it for years at a time until 1123 00:45:53,770 --> 00:45:51,200 everyone forgets about it and never 1124 00:45:56,230 --> 00:45:53,780 announced anything at all just so they 1125 00:45:59,290 --> 00:45:56,240 don't face that public backlash yeah 1126 00:46:01,630 --> 00:45:59,300 yeah I mean that's what you said Mike - 1127 00:46:04,030 --> 00:46:01,640 about how slow things have been Jason 1128 00:46:08,110 --> 00:46:04,040 and I first started talking to Tom about 1129 00:46:10,540 --> 00:46:08,120 to the stars back in 2014 when we 1130 00:46:14,050 --> 00:46:10,550 started working for him at the initial 1131 00:46:17,230 --> 00:46:14,060 launch of to the stars media and he had 1132 00:46:19,660 --> 00:46:17,240 plans to expand this into something 1133 00:46:22,270 --> 00:46:19,670 bigger but at that time he didn't really 1134 00:46:24,640 --> 00:46:22,280 know what yet you know so it's very 1135 00:46:27,220 --> 00:46:24,650 interesting to see how it it started off 1136 00:46:29,620 --> 00:46:27,230 with like rhonchi paranormal news that 1137 00:46:33,130 --> 00:46:29,630 we were writing and has become just a 1138 00:46:36,520 --> 00:46:33,140 huge franchise of media and now a more 1139 00:46:39,310 --> 00:46:36,530 serious scientific research so what's 1140 00:46:42,160 --> 00:46:39,320 next I'm excited to see at least but I 1141 00:46:42,900 --> 00:46:42,170 am going in with again zero expectations 1142 00:46:45,630 --> 00:46:42,910 so I 1143 00:46:50,490 --> 00:46:45,640 see a lot of parallels with to the stars 1144 00:46:53,099 --> 00:46:50,500 and open minds open minds was a company 1145 00:46:55,890 --> 00:46:53,109 that Maureen and I helped start that was 1146 00:46:59,430 --> 00:46:55,900 a UFO media organization that was the 1147 00:47:02,339 --> 00:46:59,440 only type of company like it at the time 1148 00:47:05,099 --> 00:47:02,349 which is what to the Stars essentially 1149 00:47:06,809 --> 00:47:05,109 is now you know we had a wealthy 1150 00:47:09,990 --> 00:47:06,819 individual who was interested in UFOs 1151 00:47:12,960 --> 00:47:10,000 and had the ability to fund a company so 1152 00:47:15,569 --> 00:47:12,970 he could feed his passion and that's 1153 00:47:17,490 --> 00:47:15,579 what Tom's doing and for all the people 1154 00:47:20,220 --> 00:47:17,500 who are grumbling because they don't 1155 00:47:21,809 --> 00:47:20,230 approve of how Tom what Tom's doing or 1156 00:47:24,480 --> 00:47:21,819 how he's doing it or what the company is 1157 00:47:26,460 --> 00:47:24,490 doing tough you know like Maureen said 1158 00:47:29,010 --> 00:47:26,470 she said it brilliantly people need to 1159 00:47:31,349 --> 00:47:29,020 manage their expectations a lot of this 1160 00:47:33,390 --> 00:47:31,359 frustration comes from people creating 1161 00:47:36,839 --> 00:47:33,400 things in their head wanting things to 1162 00:47:38,730 --> 00:47:36,849 happen and you know that that's just not 1163 00:47:40,770 --> 00:47:38,740 realistic they need to manage their 1164 00:47:42,720 --> 00:47:40,780 expectations and understand look even if 1165 00:47:44,789 --> 00:47:42,730 you're an investor into the Stars 1166 00:47:47,910 --> 00:47:44,799 Academy of Arts and Science nobody 1167 00:47:50,220 --> 00:47:47,920 twisted your arm you chose to do that so 1168 00:47:52,829 --> 00:47:50,230 that's on you and you need to manage 1169 00:47:56,430 --> 00:47:52,839 your expectations even even if to the 1170 00:47:59,460 --> 00:47:56,440 stars doesn't do anything ever I applaud 1171 00:48:02,490 --> 00:47:59,470 the effort you know the more people we 1172 00:48:05,279 --> 00:48:02,500 have out there doing things trying to do 1173 00:48:09,359 --> 00:48:05,289 research trying to to come up with 1174 00:48:11,819 --> 00:48:09,369 answers to this crazy unknown of UFOs 1175 00:48:14,279 --> 00:48:11,829 that's awesome we need all the people 1176 00:48:16,740 --> 00:48:14,289 doing all the things all the time if 1177 00:48:19,650 --> 00:48:16,750 they're successful that's awesome 1178 00:48:21,930 --> 00:48:19,660 if not yeah at least they tried it 1179 00:48:24,420 --> 00:48:21,940 doesn't affect me and it shouldn't 1180 00:48:26,010 --> 00:48:24,430 affect you if each again if you chose to 1181 00:48:27,299 --> 00:48:26,020 invest money that's on you and you 1182 00:48:30,450 --> 00:48:27,309 understand that it's not really an 1183 00:48:33,140 --> 00:48:30,460 investment you really crowdfunded this 1184 00:48:35,430 --> 00:48:33,150 effort to do some awesome things so 1185 00:48:36,900 --> 00:48:35,440 anything they do I think is great but 1186 00:48:38,849 --> 00:48:36,910 people need to understand and remember 1187 00:48:41,039 --> 00:48:38,859 that to the Stars is primarily an 1188 00:48:42,599 --> 00:48:41,049 entertainment company and there's some 1189 00:48:46,079 --> 00:48:42,609 awesome entertainment that's going to 1190 00:48:48,480 --> 00:48:46,089 come out of it but again I view to the 1191 00:48:51,029 --> 00:48:48,490 stars as something very similar to open 1192 00:48:52,740 --> 00:48:51,039 minds what me and Maureen did as you 1193 00:48:55,019 --> 00:48:52,750 know a guy very passionate about 1194 00:48:56,660 --> 00:48:55,029 something and doing it with a company 1195 00:48:59,630 --> 00:48:56,670 and somebody who has so 1196 00:49:01,370 --> 00:48:59,640 lot of resources and access to do it on 1197 00:49:03,680 --> 00:49:01,380 a much grander scale and now yeah we're 1198 00:49:05,839 --> 00:49:03,690 seeing I think that's amazing let's hope 1199 00:49:08,960 --> 00:49:05,849 it doesn't go the way it turned out with 1200 00:49:12,559 --> 00:49:08,970 open minds where he got bored because he 1201 00:49:17,799 --> 00:49:12,569 hadn't solved the alien problem right 1202 00:49:20,660 --> 00:49:17,809 well time yeah well tom is a 1203 00:49:22,520 --> 00:49:20,670 self-proclaimed a DD so that that could 1204 00:49:25,010 --> 00:49:22,530 happen but fortunately he has other 1205 00:49:27,530 --> 00:49:25,020 people involved so I don't think it will 1206 00:49:29,690 --> 00:49:27,540 go that way I think he chose these 1207 00:49:31,490 --> 00:49:29,700 people kind of like when you you have 1208 00:49:33,559 --> 00:49:31,500 someone go to the gym with you you need 1209 00:49:35,299 --> 00:49:33,569 a gym buddy to keep you motivated so 1210 00:49:38,750 --> 00:49:35,309 that's right that he has these pretty 1211 00:49:41,150 --> 00:49:38,760 prominent people a bit controversial but 1212 00:49:43,160 --> 00:49:41,160 still prominent people involved they're 1213 00:49:45,020 --> 00:49:43,170 gonna keep it going and I think one of 1214 00:49:48,260 --> 00:49:45,030 my biggest problems right now is we just 1215 00:49:50,599 --> 00:49:48,270 heard that he sold a show to TBS which 1216 00:49:52,900 --> 00:49:50,609 is awesome and everyone was just 1217 00:49:55,400 --> 00:49:52,910 pooh-poohing it like oh it's gonna be an 1218 00:49:58,069 --> 00:49:55,410 animated family guy asked thing on the 1219 00:50:00,020 --> 00:49:58,079 paranormal which was strange to me I 1220 00:50:02,120 --> 00:50:00,030 mean TBS is an odd choice I mean yeah 1221 00:50:04,460 --> 00:50:02,130 they've got similar programming but I 1222 00:50:07,789 --> 00:50:04,470 mean Maureen and I are very familiar 1223 00:50:09,349 --> 00:50:07,799 with this property and you know this is 1224 00:50:11,450 --> 00:50:09,359 something that should be on like premium 1225 00:50:14,420 --> 00:50:11,460 cable or something where like nudity and 1226 00:50:17,030 --> 00:50:14,430 profanity should be allowed like GPS is 1227 00:50:19,039 --> 00:50:17,040 not really going to fully encompass what 1228 00:50:20,480 --> 00:50:19,049 strange times has to offer right I don't 1229 00:50:22,520 --> 00:50:20,490 think they're really prepared for that 1230 00:50:24,799 --> 00:50:22,530 but what I want to say in terms of that 1231 00:50:27,500 --> 00:50:24,809 Jason is who gives a [\h__\h] what network 1232 00:50:30,049 --> 00:50:27,510 gets on the fact of the matter is he got 1233 00:50:32,270 --> 00:50:30,059 a show sold and that's going to bring in 1234 00:50:34,370 --> 00:50:32,280 money to then fund the scientific 1235 00:50:36,349 --> 00:50:34,380 research of to the stars that's what 1236 00:50:37,609 --> 00:50:36,359 people have to keep in mind they're like 1237 00:50:39,770 --> 00:50:37,619 oh all we're hearing about is the 1238 00:50:41,630 --> 00:50:39,780 entertainment stuff that the fiction 1239 00:50:43,970 --> 00:50:41,640 books the the nonfiction the 1240 00:50:46,099 --> 00:50:43,980 documentaries yeah no [\h__\h] how do you 1241 00:50:49,220 --> 00:50:46,109 make money you provide entertainment 1242 00:50:51,650 --> 00:50:49,230 that's sure and again that's that's them 1243 00:50:53,630 --> 00:50:51,660 managing their expectations or creating 1244 00:50:56,960 --> 00:50:53,640 something that they want to happen but 1245 00:50:58,549 --> 00:50:56,970 for me I will see this you ask how you 1246 00:50:59,720 --> 00:50:58,559 know our thoughts of change from the 1247 00:51:01,579 --> 00:50:59,730 beginning of the year to the end of the 1248 00:51:03,380 --> 00:51:01,589 year regarding to the stars and my 1249 00:51:05,630 --> 00:51:03,390 opinion of the company hasn't changed 1250 00:51:07,640 --> 00:51:05,640 one bit and perhaps that's because I'm 1251 00:51:08,880 --> 00:51:07,650 intimately familiar with what to the 1252 00:51:11,550 --> 00:51:08,890 stars is 1253 00:51:13,620 --> 00:51:11,560 and a lot if not all of what this 1254 00:51:16,500 --> 00:51:13,630 company has done has been very public 1255 00:51:18,270 --> 00:51:16,510 from the very beginning so it's exactly 1256 00:51:20,760 --> 00:51:18,280 what I expected they delivered exactly 1257 00:51:22,620 --> 00:51:20,770 what they've said they would and it's 1258 00:51:24,980 --> 00:51:22,630 just getting more and more exciting as 1259 00:51:28,260 --> 00:51:24,990 time goes on it can't happen you know 1260 00:51:31,320 --> 00:51:28,270 every day every week every month stuff 1261 00:51:34,470 --> 00:51:31,330 takes time but stuff has happened it is 1262 00:51:36,540 --> 00:51:34,480 happening and you know some it's a 1263 00:51:38,280 --> 00:51:36,550 pretty cool stuff if I may say so and 1264 00:51:40,200 --> 00:51:38,290 people need to understand the 1265 00:51:40,710 --> 00:51:40,210 entertainment aspect that's the easy 1266 00:51:43,380 --> 00:51:40,720 part 1267 00:51:45,690 --> 00:51:43,390 exactly UFOs are quote-unquote cool 1268 00:51:46,440 --> 00:51:45,700 right now there's a new shows popping up 1269 00:51:48,180 --> 00:51:46,450 all the time 1270 00:51:50,300 --> 00:51:48,190 so you have Tom who already has his 1271 00:51:53,370 --> 00:51:50,310 built-in fan base you he has all these 1272 00:51:55,980 --> 00:51:53,380 these franchises mapped out already that 1273 00:51:57,630 --> 00:51:55,990 if you're an executive you know for 1274 00:52:00,420 --> 00:51:57,640 television or Hollywood that's an easy 1275 00:52:03,330 --> 00:52:00,430 sell you know this is the easy part the 1276 00:52:05,670 --> 00:52:03,340 hard part is getting more people you 1277 00:52:07,440 --> 00:52:05,680 know in positions of power on board more 1278 00:52:08,730 --> 00:52:07,450 mainstream coverage getting the research 1279 00:52:11,640 --> 00:52:08,740 done that's the hard part that's what 1280 00:52:14,010 --> 00:52:11,650 takes time yes and a lot of people I've 1281 00:52:17,940 --> 00:52:14,020 heard this term floating around the - 1282 00:52:20,460 --> 00:52:17,950 the star syndrome where now every TV 1283 00:52:22,920 --> 00:52:20,470 network and their mother wants to do a 1284 00:52:25,440 --> 00:52:22,930 paranormal or UFO show I know everyone 1285 00:52:27,570 --> 00:52:25,450 on this panel has been tapped countless 1286 00:52:29,940 --> 00:52:27,580 times this year since the New York Times 1287 00:52:33,060 --> 00:52:29,950 story broke since - the stars has been 1288 00:52:36,420 --> 00:52:33,070 doing this stuff so if anything yes - 1289 00:52:38,490 --> 00:52:36,430 the stars has made UFOs popular again 1290 00:52:40,770 --> 00:52:38,500 put them back into the mainstream and 1291 00:52:42,600 --> 00:52:40,780 that's exciting and instead of getting 1292 00:52:44,130 --> 00:52:42,610 jealous and like bashing everything 1293 00:52:46,290 --> 00:52:44,140 they're doing I think we just got to 1294 00:52:48,510 --> 00:52:46,300 ride the wave enjoy it for what we can 1295 00:52:51,300 --> 00:52:48,520 get what we can out of it for our own 1296 00:52:52,230 --> 00:52:51,310 research and just sort of wait and see 1297 00:52:53,910 --> 00:52:52,240 what happens 1298 00:52:55,410 --> 00:52:53,920 or if you're gonna be a dick about it 1299 00:52:57,420 --> 00:52:55,420 don't pay attention to it it doesn't 1300 00:52:58,950 --> 00:52:57,430 have to affect you go and do your own 1301 00:53:01,800 --> 00:52:58,960 thing don't worry about what other 1302 00:53:04,380 --> 00:53:01,810 people are doing exactly by saying the 1303 00:53:06,780 --> 00:53:04,390 people who chose to invest they chose to 1304 00:53:09,210 --> 00:53:06,790 invest that was their money exactly I 1305 00:53:12,210 --> 00:53:09,220 chose not to invest personally just 1306 00:53:13,590 --> 00:53:12,220 because I did remain objective I mean if 1307 00:53:15,030 --> 00:53:13,600 I'm gonna be a journalist and talk about 1308 00:53:16,920 --> 00:53:15,040 this stuff I wanted to remain objective 1309 00:53:18,810 --> 00:53:16,930 I mean I'm already biased because we've 1310 00:53:20,970 --> 00:53:18,820 worked for to the stars I always throw 1311 00:53:23,089 --> 00:53:20,980 that out there but yeah I chose not to 1312 00:53:25,609 --> 00:53:23,099 invest because I want 1313 00:53:27,739 --> 00:53:25,619 objective and not tied to something 1314 00:53:29,690 --> 00:53:27,749 financially not to mention that the 1315 00:53:32,329 --> 00:53:29,700 investments weren't open in Arizona 1316 00:53:34,069 --> 00:53:32,339 where you live that's true they are they 1317 00:53:38,059 --> 00:53:34,079 think they were later but yeah at the 1318 00:53:40,940 --> 00:53:38,069 launch not at all so I couldn't let's be 1319 00:53:42,440 --> 00:53:40,950 honest yeah I'm a Jason terms of not 1320 00:53:43,940 --> 00:53:42,450 vesting I thought it would be kind of a 1321 00:53:46,519 --> 00:53:43,950 conflict of interest since I cover this 1322 00:53:55,099 --> 00:53:46,529 and also I've given time too long so 1323 00:53:57,799 --> 00:53:55,109 much money since my moral support is 1324 00:53:59,450 --> 00:53:57,809 good enough absolutely no the only the 1325 00:54:02,839 --> 00:53:59,460 last thing I want to touch on were to 1326 00:54:05,120 --> 00:54:02,849 the Stars guys is I had John Greenwald 1327 00:54:07,819 --> 00:54:05,130 on my show recently who we all know is 1328 00:54:10,219 --> 00:54:07,829 the guy who he's the fo ia guy any 1329 00:54:12,319 --> 00:54:10,229 document pertaining to UFOs that has 1330 00:54:13,609 --> 00:54:12,329 been Declassified he's all about it he 1331 00:54:15,859 --> 00:54:13,619 gets it out there and gives it to the 1332 00:54:18,620 --> 00:54:15,869 public for free I talked to him all 1333 00:54:20,870 --> 00:54:18,630 about to the Stars and a tip the actual 1334 00:54:23,089 --> 00:54:20,880 government funded project about UFOs the 1335 00:54:25,670 --> 00:54:23,099 Pentagon program and what's really 1336 00:54:27,410 --> 00:54:25,680 interesting is he hasn't found much on 1337 00:54:30,140 --> 00:54:27,420 this thing now that's not to say it's 1338 00:54:33,109 --> 00:54:30,150 not that it didn't exist we know it 1339 00:54:34,940 --> 00:54:33,119 existed what John argues is that it has 1340 00:54:38,120 --> 00:54:34,950 been exaggerated beyond comprehension 1341 00:54:41,150 --> 00:54:38,130 that this program didn't really involve 1342 00:54:43,069 --> 00:54:41,160 UFOs that much in that mr. Elizondo 1343 00:54:45,289 --> 00:54:43,079 might not exactly have been as prominent 1344 00:54:46,969 --> 00:54:45,299 as many people think I mean we had him 1345 00:54:49,640 --> 00:54:46,979 recently gave a presentation in Italy 1346 00:54:51,109 --> 00:54:49,650 where he showed CGI'd photos to the 1347 00:54:54,890 --> 00:54:51,119 public and said that these were actual 1348 00:54:57,459 --> 00:54:54,900 photos of the Washington DC flap no that 1349 00:55:00,289 --> 00:54:57,469 was a blunder that I can't really 1350 00:55:02,900 --> 00:55:00,299 understand how someone who headed a UFO 1351 00:55:05,059 --> 00:55:02,910 program could make something like that 1352 00:55:07,700 --> 00:55:05,069 in observation like that that a mistake 1353 00:55:10,489 --> 00:55:07,710 like that so I do want to err on the 1354 00:55:12,440 --> 00:55:10,499 side of caution in terms of how 1355 00:55:15,019 --> 00:55:12,450 important this a tip project actually 1356 00:55:16,819 --> 00:55:15,029 was but at the end of the day I want to 1357 00:55:20,749 --> 00:55:16,829 ask you guys does that even matter to 1358 00:55:23,989 --> 00:55:20,759 any of you no no okay okay and again 1359 00:55:26,630 --> 00:55:23,999 managing expectations look if we're 1360 00:55:28,880 --> 00:55:26,640 taking Elizondo at his word and he did 1361 00:55:30,890 --> 00:55:28,890 what he said he did he's not a UFO 1362 00:55:34,599 --> 00:55:30,900 historian he doesn't know everything 1363 00:55:36,680 --> 00:55:34,609 about UFOs he had a specific job to 1364 00:55:38,870 --> 00:55:36,690 study weird things in 1365 00:55:41,059 --> 00:55:38,880 sky that doesn't make him a UFO expert 1366 00:55:42,980 --> 00:55:41,069 or somebody who knows about UFO history 1367 00:55:47,329 --> 00:55:42,990 and he's admitted that he doesn't know 1368 00:55:49,670 --> 00:55:47,339 UFO history so it's very understandable 1369 00:55:50,809 --> 00:55:49,680 that not really gonna know what they're 1370 00:55:52,490 --> 00:55:50,819 talking about when they're throwing up 1371 00:55:54,730 --> 00:55:52,500 all these old photos about you know 1372 00:55:57,770 --> 00:55:54,740 historical cases and all that stuff so 1373 00:55:59,390 --> 00:55:57,780 no I mean I think it's embarrassing yes 1374 00:56:00,620 --> 00:55:59,400 and they need to work on that especially 1375 00:56:02,930 --> 00:56:00,630 if they're going to be as public as they 1376 00:56:05,390 --> 00:56:02,940 want to be but that doesn't mean 1377 00:56:08,089 --> 00:56:05,400 anything in terms of a tip or it's its 1378 00:56:09,890 --> 00:56:08,099 legitimacy but it will say I mean we 1379 00:56:10,970 --> 00:56:09,900 already know that a tip wasn't really 1380 00:56:12,800 --> 00:56:10,980 much of anything 1381 00:56:15,260 --> 00:56:12,810 I mean twenty-two million dollars come 1382 00:56:17,120 --> 00:56:15,270 on that's nothing that's like a project 1383 00:56:20,120 --> 00:56:17,130 of bringing in a project manager at the 1384 00:56:22,400 --> 00:56:20,130 White House to replace a toilet and as 1385 00:56:25,130 --> 00:56:22,410 we've from Jeremy Korbel and many others 1386 00:56:27,530 --> 00:56:25,140 the bulk of that project was looking 1387 00:56:30,020 --> 00:56:27,540 into things not related to UFOs things 1388 00:56:33,020 --> 00:56:30,030 like skinwalker ranch being the bulk of 1389 00:56:35,569 --> 00:56:33,030 it so there you go well today I'm gonna 1390 00:56:37,069 --> 00:56:35,579 add it doesn't change you know kind of 1391 00:56:39,050 --> 00:56:37,079 whether I support them or not but I do 1392 00:56:41,180 --> 00:56:39,060 think it's very careless and sloppy and 1393 00:56:43,220 --> 00:56:41,190 it's not a good look because even though 1394 00:56:45,800 --> 00:56:43,230 he wasn't you know an expert on UFOs 1395 00:56:47,030 --> 00:56:45,810 previously you know Tom's also known for 1396 00:56:48,440 --> 00:56:47,040 you know been posting photos on 1397 00:56:50,450 --> 00:56:48,450 Instagram and showing videos of things 1398 00:56:52,700 --> 00:56:50,460 that we know are hoaxes and that's just 1399 00:56:54,920 --> 00:56:52,710 sloppy and I think they definitely need 1400 00:56:57,319 --> 00:56:54,930 some crisis management in terms of 1401 00:56:59,599 --> 00:56:57,329 public relations I know there's like one 1402 00:57:01,640 --> 00:56:59,609 publicist there's Tom's publicist who I 1403 00:57:02,900 --> 00:57:01,650 think does a decent job but I think they 1404 00:57:04,670 --> 00:57:02,910 actually need a team because a lot of 1405 00:57:05,089 --> 00:57:04,680 this stuff needs to be managed yeah for 1406 00:57:07,160 --> 00:57:05,099 sure 1407 00:57:10,910 --> 00:57:07,170 but can you imagine having to be Tom's 1408 00:57:13,970 --> 00:57:10,920 publicist like what a giant job that is 1409 00:57:15,589 --> 00:57:13,980 any any look I mean we've been doing 1410 00:57:19,099 --> 00:57:15,599 this Maureen and I've been doing this 1411 00:57:21,050 --> 00:57:19,109 for 10 plus years now and you know if my 1412 00:57:23,540 --> 00:57:21,060 job if I were brought onto something 1413 00:57:27,319 --> 00:57:23,550 like I'm not going to be able to do 1414 00:57:29,990 --> 00:57:27,329 nearly as good of a job as he internet 1415 00:57:31,520 --> 00:57:30,000 people you know you can think you've 1416 00:57:33,200 --> 00:57:31,530 done all the research and everything in 1417 00:57:36,410 --> 00:57:33,210 the world but as soon as something goes 1418 00:57:38,599 --> 00:57:36,420 live you'll hear from a hundred hardcore 1419 00:57:41,750 --> 00:57:38,609 internet people who will tell you how 1420 00:57:44,000 --> 00:57:41,760 you you effed up and you know what a 1421 00:57:46,370 --> 00:57:44,010 terrible job you did and why the photo 1422 00:57:47,390 --> 00:57:46,380 you showed was proven to be a fake and 1423 00:57:52,819 --> 00:57:47,400 this and that 1424 00:57:54,769 --> 00:57:52,829 yeah I mean I want to add oh no I was 1425 00:57:57,200 --> 00:57:54,779 just gonna say to your point the Roswell 1426 00:57:59,059 --> 00:57:57,210 slides were debunked in one day by the 1427 00:58:01,819 --> 00:57:59,069 Pyland one right that's all I'm gonna 1428 00:58:03,680 --> 00:58:01,829 say and in one in one sense that's the 1429 00:58:05,480 --> 00:58:03,690 easiest thing to do like hey let's just 1430 00:58:07,690 --> 00:58:05,490 put it up I'm not sure about it but if 1431 00:58:11,029 --> 00:58:07,700 we're wrong the internet'll let us know 1432 00:58:13,940 --> 00:58:11,039 the all-encompassing Internet Maureen 1433 00:58:15,950 --> 00:58:13,950 what do you think I mean that it's a 1434 00:58:17,120 --> 00:58:15,960 really good point and I think that it's 1435 00:58:19,640 --> 00:58:17,130 terrifying 1436 00:58:22,760 --> 00:58:19,650 in terms of there's always the risk that 1437 00:58:24,109 --> 00:58:22,770 you're gonna post something that you 1438 00:58:25,609 --> 00:58:24,119 know you're asking questions about this 1439 00:58:29,390 --> 00:58:25,619 actually just happened on Twitter today 1440 00:58:32,059 --> 00:58:29,400 I saw you commenting on it Ryan with 1441 00:58:34,069 --> 00:58:32,069 with the San Romanek video some guy 1442 00:58:36,920 --> 00:58:34,079 posted and tagged a bunch of people in 1443 00:58:39,230 --> 00:58:36,930 and he would he thought it was an 1444 00:58:47,660 --> 00:58:39,240 interesting video and then all of us 1445 00:58:49,400 --> 00:58:47,670 within three seconds said no so there 1446 00:58:52,059 --> 00:58:49,410 you go I mean that's that

the more you realize the importance of 1450 00:59:03,109 --> 00:59:01,109 being cautious and certainly not 1451 00:59:05,720 --> 00:59:03,119 throwing up a photo on a projector and 1452 00:59:08,420 --> 00:59:05,730 going and this is a real photo you know 1453 00:59:12,200 --> 00:59:08,430 you have to be careful and engage 1454 00:59:14,750 --> 00:59:12,210 everything you know allegedly is a very 1455 00:59:16,579 --> 00:59:14,760 good word to enter your vocabulary and 1456 00:59:19,420 --> 00:59:16,589 have it be used frequently and often 1457 00:59:24,160 --> 00:59:19,430 everyone knows it's

while now some of us have seen a good 1478 01:00:18,499 --> 01:00:17,789 chunk of the first six episodes or so of 1479 01:00:22,160 --> 01:00:18,509 it 1480 01:00:24,709 --> 01:00:22,170 so guys J

01:00:38,179 --> 01:00:36,900 premiering on the History Channel I'm 1487 01:00:40,069 --> 01:00:38,189 ready to explode but I'll let other 1488 01:00:41,749 --> 01:00:40,079 people go I haven't seen it y'all has 1489 01:00:44,569 --> 01:00:41,759 actually seen it and I'm just curious 1490 01:00:46,999 --> 01:00:44,579 you haven't no I have I've seen the 1491 01:00:49,219 --> 01:00:47,009 first six episodes I was very fortunate 1492 01:00:50,809 --> 01:00:49,229 to have that but pouring salt in the 1493 01:00:52,939 --> 01:00:50,819 wound I'm sorry my man but what do you 1494 01:00:54,289 --> 01:00:52,949 think but it was your initial reactions 1495 01:00:56,749 --> 01:00:54,299 to hearing that they were going to be 1496 01:00:58,309 --> 01:00:56,759 making a television show about Project 1497 01:00:59,479 --> 01:00:58,319 Blue Book well once again this is 1498 01:01:01,309 --> 01:00:59,489 something it's gonna be highly 1499 01:01:03,890 --> 01:01:01,319 fictionalized as well so that's what I'm 1500 01:01:06,380 --> 01:01:03,900 curious to see if how much of it pulls 1501 01:01:08,239 --> 01:01:06,390 from what we we know to be true and how 1502 01:01:10,519 --> 01:01:08,249 much of it is fictionalized but either 1503 01:01:12,859 --> 01:01:10,529 way I'm so excited for it because I feel 1504 01:01:15,829 --> 01:01:12,869 like we haven't had a show like this on 1505 01:01:16,759 --> 01:01:15,839 television in a while especially you 1506 01:01:19,459 --> 01:01:16,769 know something that hits close to home 1507 01:01:20,569 --> 01:01:19,469 to all of us so I'm excited for and the 1508 01:01:21,829 --> 01:01:20,579 fact that you know it's on the History 1509 01:01:23,749 --> 01:01:21,839 Channel I think that's a good thing too 1510 01:01:26,809 --> 01:01:23,759 you'll see it probably packaged with 1511 01:01:29,779 --> 01:01:26,819 ancient aliens on at some point three 1512 01:01:31,309 --> 01:01:29,789 runs but you know yes it's you know Ron 1513 01:01:32,419 --> 01:01:31,319 you've seen it before without giving you 1514 01:01:34,370 --> 01:01:32,429 spoil or don't know how much you can 1515 01:01:38,209 --> 01:01:34,380 speak to it but would you say that is it 1516 01:01:41,059 --> 01:01:38,219 is a fair representation absolutely and 1517 01:01:43,849 --> 01:01:41,069 I can say that very without any 1518 01:01:48,890 --> 01:01:43,859 hesitation to be honest it is it's fair 1519 01:01:51,109 --> 01:01:48,900 it's authentic but it is a drama is 1520 01:01:53,870 --> 01:01:51,119 fiction it's a drama it's fiction 1521 01:01:56,089 --> 01:01:53,880 I recently interviewed the creator and 1522 01:01:59,359 --> 01:01:56,099 the showrunner of the show that'll be 1523 01:02:02,239 --> 01:01:59,369 airing in a few weeks from now but they 1524 01:02:04,640 --> 01:02:02,249 they stress that of course we had to 1525 01:02:07,599 --> 01:02:04,650 fictionalize aspects we need to create a 1526 01:02:09,829 --> 01:02:07,609 narrative for all of this so I 1527 01:02:11,140 --> 01:02:09,839 understand those who said it's not 1528 01:02:13,420 --> 01:02:11,150 accurate it's it's going to be 1529 01:02:15,760 --> 01:02:13,430 why is Hynek looking at an alien and a 1530 01:02:17,830 --> 01:02:15,770 tube-like I totally mean in all that I 1531 01:02:20,410 --> 01:02:17,840 totally get her but until you see it 1532 01:02:22,840 --> 01:02:20,420 until you see the story they lay out I'm 1533 01:02:26,560 --> 01:02:22,850 sort of reserving judgment on saying 1534 01:02:29,380 --> 01:02:26,570 they totally botched it it is a slick 1535 01:02:33,520 --> 01:02:29,390 show it is beautiful it is well-written 1536 01:02:36,430 --> 01:02:33,530 it is amazingly acted by in and Gillan 1537 01:02:39,970 --> 01:02:36,440 plain J Allen Hynek and the other actors 1538 01:02:42,430 --> 01:02:39,980 as well I think it's great again it's 1539 01:02:45,340 --> 01:02:42,440 the History Channel so there's a lot of 1540 01:02:47,440 --> 01:02:45,350 historical stuff in it a lot of cases we 1541 01:02:48,970 --> 01:02:47,450 all know in the UFO community but this 1542 01:02:51,130 --> 01:02:48,980 is gonna be the first time for a lot of 1543 01:02:53,020 --> 01:02:51,140 people hearing about these cases so 1544 01:02:55,120 --> 01:02:53,030 that's more exciting than did they get 1545 01:02:57,310 --> 01:02:55,130 this right was was this the date it 1546 01:02:59,500 --> 01:02:57,320 actually happened this that's exactly 1547 01:03:01,540 --> 01:02:59,510 yeah see again we come back to manage 1548 01:03:03,370 --> 01:03:01,550 expectations and people you know wanting 1549 01:03:07,000 --> 01:03:03,380 this to be something it's not this is 1550 01:03:09,760 --> 01:03:07,010 not a documentary it's a drama TV show 1551 01:03:12,640 --> 01:03:09,770 it's fiction but it's based on something 1552 01:03:15,340 --> 01:03:12,650 true so there's a lot of truth in here 1553 01:03:18,160 --> 01:03:15,350 so this if you like x-files 1554 01:03:19,870 --> 01:03:18,170 you know people on the UF of x-files 1555 01:03:22,120 --> 01:03:19,880 because it's talking about it we all 1556 01:03:25,930 --> 01:03:22,130 love and are passionate about well this 1557 01:03:29,350 --> 01:03:25,940 is the same thing but it's referencing 1558 01:03:32,170 --> 01:03:29,360 something that was real yeah so keep 1559 01:03:34,570 --> 01:03:32,180 that in mind think of it as a an x-files 1560 01:03:38,920 --> 01:03:34,580 period piece because that's what it is 1561 01:03:41,320 --> 01:03:38,930 and this show is so well done Paul Hynek 1562 01:03:43,960 --> 01:03:41,330 J Allen Hynek son is a consultant on the 1563 01:03:45,610 --> 01:03:43,970 show so that should tell you something 1564 01:03:47,740 --> 01:03:45,620 and I just think they did such a great 1565 01:03:49,870 --> 01:03:47,750 job with this I am excited to see the 1566 01:03:52,420 --> 01:03:49,880 first

01:03:56,030 just don't expect it to be a documentary 1570 01:03:58,750 --> 01:03:57,500 telling you what actually happened with 1571 01:04:00,460 --> 01:03:58,760 Project Blue Book because you're not 1572 01:04:02,740 --> 01:04:00,470 going to get it but you will have fun 1573 01:04:06,990 --> 01:04:02,750 because it's a TV show about UFOs and 1574 01:04:10,470 --> 01:04:07,000 that being said -

UFOs documentary yeah no 1676 01:08:35,000 --> 01:08:32,280 project Bluebook I am I'm stoked on this 1677 01:08:37,040 --> 01:08:35,010 show I mean you know the recent x-files 1678 01:08:41,750 --> 01:08:37,050 left us all a little disappointed and 1679 01:08:43,630 --> 01:08:41,760 wanting more but Blue Book man if the 1680 01:08:46,400 --> 01:08:43,640 rest of the the the season is like 1681 01:08:49,760 --> 01:08:46,410 episode 1 I'm just I'm ready for it 1682 01:08:51,320 --> 01:08:49,770 because again as a fan of this genre and 1683 01:08:53,420 --> 01:08:51,330 as the the top 1684 01:08:56,330 --> 01:08:53,430 of UFOs taking something that's real and 1685 01:08:58,730 --> 01:08:56,340 presenting it in this way I number one 1686 01:09:00,980 --> 01:08:58,740 I'm excited because it's a great show 1687 01:09:03,230 --> 01:09:00,990 and number two I think the possibilities 1688 01:09:04,580 --> 01:09:03,240 for exposing people to the reality of 1689 01:09:07,520 --> 01:09:04,590 Project Blue Book and the government's 1690 01:09:09,350 --> 01:09:07,530 interest in UFOs is ridiculous I'm 1691 01:09:11,960 --> 01:09:09,360 excited about that I'm also excited to 1692 01:09:14,600 --> 01:09:11,970 see what happens with things in the 1693 01:09:16,630 --> 01:09:14,610 general public like alien con alien con 1694 01:09:18,530 --> 01:09:16,640 has started this massive movement 1695 01:09:21,560 --> 01:09:18,540 baltimore was unreal 1696 01:09:24,410 --> 01:09:21,570 and moving it to LA for the California 1697 01:09:27,860 --> 01:09:24,420 one in June I think that thing is going 1698 01:09:29,900 --> 01:09:27,870 to be huge so I'm really looking forward 1699 01:09:31,760 --> 01:09:29,910 to seeing the kind of turnout they get 1700 01:09:33,740 --> 01:09:31,770 the people they get and just what that 1701 01:09:36,500 --> 01:09:33,750 experience is because again that's pop 1702 01:09:38,510 --> 01:09:36,510 culture that's the general public people 1703 01:09:40,010 --> 01:09:38,520 going there they've never looked into 1704 01:09:41,480 --> 01:09:40,020 UFOs for themselves they've never been 1705 01:09:43,880 --> 01:09:41,490 to a UFO conference they've never read a 1706 01:09:45,980 --> 01:09:43,890 UFO book they just have this interest in 1707 01:09:49,400 --> 01:09:45,990 the topic and that's their introduction 1708 01:09:51,530 --> 01:09:49,410 and you know there's so many people tens 1709 01:09:53,120 --> 01:09:51,540 of thousands of people going to this 1710 01:09:54,680 --> 01:09:53,130 event for the first time so I think it's 1711 01:09:57,020 --> 01:09:54,690 really exciting so I can't wait to see 1712 01:09:59,660 --> 01:09:57,030 what that does for for the topic for the 1713 01:10:01,910 --> 01:09:59,670 discussion
