00:02:38,840 first I want to thank each and every 48 00:02:43,720 --> 00:02:41,570 person who listens to the show whether 49 00:02:45,520 --> 00:02:43,730 you were with me from the very start or 50

is today 56 00:03:03,250 --> 00:02:59,690 when I first decided to make a podcast I 57 00:03:05,830 --> 00:03:03,260 can honestly say that I had no idea what 58 00:03:07,120 --> 00:03:05,840 I was doing and where I was heading but 59 00:03:10,600 --> 00:03:07,130 with the guidance of many other 60 00:03:12,850 --> 00:03:10,610 podcasters researchers and a built-in 61 00:03:16,150 --> 00:03:12,860 support system of friends and colleagues 62 00:03:19,360 --> 00:03:16,160 I stumbled my way through and somehow 63 00:03:22,390 --> 00:03:19,370 made it this far and I can't pretend it 64 00:03:25,630 --> 00:03:22,400 was easy this podcast has become a huge 65 00:03:28,870 --> 00:03:25,640 part of my weekly if not daily routine 66 00:03:30,370 --> 00:03:28,880 from research to booking guests to 67 00:03:33,790 --> 00:03:30,380 recording interviews to editing 68 00:03:36,759 --> 00:03:33,800 producing uploading and promoting it has 69 00:03:40,479 --> 00:03:36,769 become a job but it's a job like long 70 00:03:42,490 --> 00:03:40,489 and a job I take very seriously so again 71 00:03:43,150 --> 00:03:42,500 I have to thank you for following me on 72 00:03:45,940 --> 00:03:43,160 this journey 73 00:03:49,180 --> 00:03:45,950 to find answers and with every single 74 00:03:52,770 --> 00:03:49,190 episode I feel like I'm inching closer 75 00:03:56,620 --> 00:03:52,780 to maybe binding some of those answers 76 00:03:58,750 --> 00:03:56,630 UFOs are an unforgiving and rebellious 77 00:04:01,900 --> 00:03:58,760 phenomenon it doesn't follow any type of 78 00:04:04,289 --> 00:04:01,910 guidelines structures or patterns it's 79 00:04:06,970 --> 00:04:04,299 frustrating and it's sometimes 80 00:04:09,340 --> 00:04:06,980 discouraging but I have met so many 81 00:04:11,170 --> 00:04:09,350 amazing people along the way on this 82 00:04:14,059 --> 00:04:11,180 journey that it has shown me that the 83 00:04:17,479 --> 00:04:14,069 destination isn't the be-all end-all 84 00:04:19,189 --> 00:04:17,489 really is the journey so I hope you'll 85 00:04:21,469 --> 00:04:19,199 continue to take that journey with me 86 00:04:24,730 --> 00:04:21,479 and today we're gonna take a look back 87 00:04:27,620 --> 00:04:24,740 at some of my favorite moments cases and 88 00:04:30,590 --> 00:04:27,630 experiences somewhere in the skies and 89 00:04:33,860 --> 00:04:30,600 what better place to start than with the 90 00:04:37,070 --> 00:04:33,870 premiere episode my first ever guest on 91 00:04:40,219 --> 00:04:37,080 the show was UFO historian author and my 92 00:04:42,800 --> 00:04:40,229 publisher Richard Dolan since podcasts 93 00:04:45,110 --> 00:04:42,810 are considered a media driven medium I 94 00:04:48,170 --> 00:04:45,120 wanted to talk to mr. Dolan about the 95 00:04:51,890 --> 00:04:48,180 effects that media has on the UFO topic 96 00:04:54,860 --> 00:04:51,900 in how UFOs have influenced media but 97 00:04:57,730 --> 00:04:54,870 also how media has influenced and even 98 00:05:00,680 --> 00:04:57,740 controlled our perception of the UFOs 99 00:05:03,860 --> 00:05:00,690 here's a clip from our conversation on 100 00:05:07,850 --> 00:05:03,870 Episode one I think what we're looking 101 00:05:11,270 --> 00:05:07,860 at my basic analysis my conclusion is 102 00:05:14,240 --> 00:05:11,280 that it's very obvious to see that the 103 00:05:16,490 --> 00:05:14,250 UFO phenomenon has been an important 104 00:05:19,250 --> 00:05:16,500 part of national security and an 105 00:05:22,070 --> 00:05:19,260 important concern and in that lecture 106 00:05:23,960 --> 00:05:22,080 and in my career I've often like to 107 00:05:26,240 --> 00:05:23,970 quote a few particular documents one of 108 00:05:30,230 --> 00:05:26,250 my favorite ones is a CIA document from 109 00:05:33,020 --> 00:05:30,240 1952 in which the director of scientific 110 00:05:38,240 --> 00:05:33,030 intelligence writes to the director of 111 00:05:39,469 --> 00:05:38,250 the CIA that these these sightings must 112 00:05:41,089 --> 00:05:39,479 have immediate attention that there are 113 00:05:42,439 --> 00:05:41,099 sightings of unexplained objects at 114 00:05:44,480 --> 00:05:42,449 great altitudes and traveling at high 115 00:05:46,520 --> 00:05:44,490 speeds near major US defense 116 00:05:49,129 --> 00:05:46,530 installations he said that or of such 117 00:05:51,710 --> 00:05:49,139 nature that they are not attributable to 118 00:05:55,400 --> 00:05:51,720 natural phenomena or known types of 119 00:05:57,950 --> 00:05:55,410 aerial vehicles so you know but one of a 120 00:06:00,740 --> 00:05:57,960 number of statements in the during the 121 00:06:03,379 --> 00:06:00,750 Cold War that are very highly classified 122 00:06:06,409 --> 00:06:03,389 in which this phenomenon clearly is 123 00:06:07,969 --> 00:06:06,419 being taken seriously and yet our media 124 00:06:12,279 --> 00:06:07,979 which is supposed to be the watchdog the 125 00:06:14,450 --> 00:06:12,289 guardian of the Republic really mm-hmm 126 00:06:16,129 --> 00:06:14,460 completely dropping the ball so then the 127 00:06:18,950 --> 00:06:16,139 question arises are they doing this 128 00:06:20,420 --> 00:06:18,960 because of their own journalistic biases 129 00:06:21,890 --> 00:06:20,430 and they're just bought their biases as 130 00:06:23,629 --> 00:06:21,900 human beings or is there something else 131 00:06:25,310 --> 00:06:23,639 going on and what I would I would say is 132 00:06:26,640 --> 00:06:25,320 that there's something more going on the 133 00:06:28,170 --> 00:06:26,650 media has 134 00:06:31,230 --> 00:06:28,180 explicitly been working in conjunction 135 00:06:32,730 --> 00:06:31,240 with the intelligence community we know 136 00:06:34,890 --> 00:06:32,740 this in the UFO field through something 137 00:06:37,409 --> 00:06:34,900 known as the Robertson panel where in 138 00:06:38,249 --> 00:06:37,419 early 1953 the last weekend of the 139 00:06:43,800 --> 00:06:38,259 Truman White House 140 00:06:45,749 --> 00:06:43,810 the CIA did its own study and debunking 141 00:06:49,379 --> 00:06:45,759 of the UFO phenomenon it was already a 142 00:06:50,939 --> 00:06:49,389 rigged game even then right they they 143 00:06:52,950 --> 00:06:50,949 made it as one of their conclusions to 144 00:06:55,320 --> 00:06:52,960 work with major media to debunk the 145 00:06:58,050 --> 00:06:55,330 phenomenon to the public and we also 146 00:06:59,600 --> 00:06:58,060 know outside of the UFO subject of 147 00:07:01,830 --> 00:06:59,610 something known as operation Mockingbird 148 00:07:02,779 --> 00:07:01,840 which I believe I talked about that a 149 00:07:09,659 --> 00:07:02,789 little bit in the lecture and 150 00:07:11,670 --> 00:07:09,669 Mockingbird was a CIA coordinated media 151 00:07:15,330 --> 00:07:11,680 control program it went all through the 152 00:07:16,790 --> 00:07:15,340 Cold War 1940s 50s 60s 70s where the CIA 153 00:07:20,610 --> 00:07:16,800 would have journalists on its payroll 154 00:07:22,230 --> 00:07:20,620 who would report the news in a way that 155 00:07:25,460 --> 00:07:22,240 the CIA liked who would sometimes make 156 00:07:28,159 --> 00:07:25,470 up fake stories the CIA would do this 157 00:07:30,360 --> 00:07:28,169 they normally would make up fake stories 158 00:07:32,820 --> 00:07:30,370 internationally and let them come to the 159 00:07:35,129 --> 00:07:32,830 u.s. that was their way of doing it 160 00:07:36,510 --> 00:07:35,139 safely but they controlled spin they 161 00:07:37,770 --> 00:07:36,520 controlled editorial policy we're 162 00:07:40,529 --> 00:07:37,780 talking near Times Washington Post 163 00:07:42,899 --> 00:07:40,539 particularly and they're always they're 164 00:07:45,210 --> 00:07:42,909 the leaders but also television CBS did 165 00:07:46,740 --> 00:07:45,220 a UFO special in the 60s featuring 166 00:07:49,230 --> 00:07:46,750 Walter Cronkite the great American 167 00:07:51,390 --> 00:07:49,240 anchorman was a UFO debunking piece that 168 00:07:52,290 --> 00:07:51,400 was part of the Robertson panel I would 169 00:07:54,180 --> 00:07:52,300 say part of the whole operation 170 00:07:57,180 --> 00:07:54,190 Mockingbird I think I look at it all as 171 00:07:59,339 --> 00:07:57,190 one thing one piece so in other words 172 00:08:01,589 --> 00:07:59,349 what I'm saying to you and to listeners 173 00:08:04,320 --> 00:08:01,599 is that mainstream media has never been 174 00:08:06,230 --> 00:08:04,330 an honest player or relating to the UFO 175 00:08:09,540 --> 00:08:06,240 phenomenon and it's not an honest player 176 00:08:12,450 --> 00:08:09,550 relating really to anything political in 177 00:08:14,100 --> 00:08:12,460 our society and I think no matter what 178 00:08:15,839 --> 00:08:14,110 one's one thinks that their political 179 00:08:17,250 --> 00:08:15,849 orientation is I think if you do an 180 00:08:19,860 --> 00:08:17,260 objective study of the media you see 181 00:08:22,290 --> 00:08:19,870 they are they're working for an agenda 182 00:08:24,300 --> 00:08:22,300 it's an elite agenda it's an 183 00:08:25,980 --> 00:08:24,310 intelligence community dominate agenda 184 00:08:27,930 --> 00:08:25,990 it's a financial community agenda as 185 00:08:31,560 --> 00:08:27,940 well and that these all really work 186 00:08:33,659 --> 00:08:31,570 together as a control system 187 00:08:36,300 --> 00:08:33,669 the next clip I want to share with you 188 00:08:39,150 --> 00:08:36,310 comes from episode 4 featuring Annie 189 00:08:42,600 --> 00:08:39,160 Jacobson who is an investigative 190 00:08:45,540 --> 00:08:42,610 journalist best-selling author in 2016 191 00:08:48,240 --> 00:08:45,550 Pulitzer Prize finalist we talked about 192 00:08:50,700 --> 00:08:48,250 her book phenomenon the secret history 193 00:08:53,510 --> 00:08:50,710 of the US government's investigations 194 00:08:56,130 --> 00:08:53,520 into extrasensory perception and 195 00:08:58,560 --> 00:08:56,140 psychokinesis and while I'd heard rumors 196 00:09:01,590 --> 00:08:58,570 that the government had had one time 197 00:09:04,380 --> 00:09:01,600 look at these topics I had no idea how 198 00:09:06,690 --> 00:09:04,390 deep the truth it went and just how it 199 00:09:09,120 --> 00:09:06,700 all came to be this was clearly a 200 00:09:12,390 --> 00:09:09,130 departure from the UFOs but a very 201 00:09:14,400 --> 00:09:12,400 fascinating conversation all roads lead 202 00:09:17,160 --> 00:09:14,410 to the Nazis at least when you're a 203 00:09:20,670 --> 00:09:17,170 national security reporter covering war 204 00:09:24,240 --> 00:09:20,680 weapons US national security and secrets 205 00:09:26,340 --> 00:09:24,250 and phenomena is no different I began 206 00:09:31,200 --> 00:09:26,350 the story the kind of launch point is 207 00:09:33,920 --> 00:09:31,210 this discovery by US intelligence agents 208 00:09:37,710 --> 00:09:33,930 at the end of the war they were called 209 00:09:41,990 --> 00:09:37,720 Operation owl sauce and they discover a 210 00:09:44,880 --> 00:09:42,000 weird trove of Heinrich Himmler's 211 00:09:47,130 --> 00:09:44,890 Science Department documents the 212 00:09:51,650 --> 00:09:47,140 department was called das on an air Bay 213 00:09:54,660 --> 00:09:51,660 and this unit within it explored 214 00:09:58,800 --> 00:09:54,670 extrasensory perception psychokinesis 215 00:10:02,550 --> 00:09:58,810 map dowsing and then also very extreme 216 00:10:05,150 --> 00:10:02,560 forms of the occult which Himmler was 217 00:10:07,980 --> 00:10:05,160 pursuing and pushing among his SS men 218 00:10:10,890 --> 00:10:07,990 and we discovered this weird cache of 219 00:10:13,470 --> 00:10:10,900 documents and samuel goudsmit who was 220 00:10:16,770 --> 00:10:13,480 the lead physicist at the time hunting 221 00:10:19,440 --> 00:10:16,780 down atomic secrets and you know 222 00:10:20,670 --> 00:10:19,450 biological weapons secrets and all these 223 00:10:23,520 --> 00:10:20,680 other things I write my other book 224 00:10:26,730 --> 00:10:23,530 Operation Paperclip kind of cast aside 225 00:10:30,480 --> 00:10:26,740 this weirdo what he thought was a sort 226 00:10:32,790 --> 00:10:30,490 of weirdo supernatural research but it 227 00:10:35,460 --> 00:10:32,800 comes back into play later because 228 00:10:38,370 --> 00:10:35,470 you're a few years later because what we 229 00:10:40,980 --> 00:10:38,380 find out that the Soviets got the other 230 00:10:43,470 --> 00:10:40,990 half of the dust on an area documents 231 00:10:44,230 --> 00:10:43,480 that dealt with the supernatural if you 232 00:10:45,670 --> 00:10:44,240 will 233 00:10:49,440 --> 00:10:45,680 naturally I think the launching point 234 00:10:52,750 --> 00:10:49,450 for this extraordinary battle between 235 00:10:55,269 --> 00:10:52,760 science and the supernatural is it fact 236 00:10:57,699 --> 00:10:55,279 is it fantasy you know and this this 237 00:11:00,130 --> 00:10:57,709 question drives the narrative and boy 238 00:11:02,769 --> 00:11:00,140 was it intensely interesting to research 239 00:11:03,720 --> 00:11:02,779 and report on this because it's such a 240 00:11:06,820 --> 00:11:03,730 mystery 241 00:11:09,699 --> 00:11:06,830 all right so staying on government 242 00:11:12,910 --> 00:11:09,709 involvement in unorthodox programs 243 00:11:15,340 --> 00:11:12,920 projects and experiments this leads to 244 00:11:18,910 --> 00:11:15,350 episode seven featuring prolific author 245 00:11:21,490 --> 00:11:18,920 Nick Redfern in 2005 a book hit the 246 00:11:24,100 --> 00:11:21,500 shelves that completely shattered the 247 00:11:26,650 --> 00:11:24,110 Roswell UFO incident and caused quite a 248 00:11:29,680 --> 00:11:26,660 stir in the UFO community and beyond 249 00:11:31,900 --> 00:11:29,690 that book was Body Snatchers in the 250 00:11:35,769 --> 00:11:31,910 desert the horrible truth at the heart 251 00:11:38,110 --> 00:11:35,779 of the Roswell story in it Redfern 252 00:11:40,900 --> 00:11:38,120 brings forth the theory event rather 253 00:11:44,260 --> 00:11:40,910 than a crashed UFO piloted by alien 254 00:11:46,329 --> 00:11:44,270 beings having crashed at Roswell is it 255 00:11:49,120 --> 00:11:46,339 possible it could have been a highly 256 00:11:51,880 --> 00:11:49,130 confidential US government sanctioned 257 00:11:54,880 --> 00:11:51,890 program to conduct medical experiments 258 00:11:58,410 --> 00:11:54,890 on handicapped disfigured and diseased 259 00:12:01,030 --> 00:11:58,420 Japanese POWs over the New Mexico desert 260 00:12:04,569 --> 00:12:01,040 in the closing stages of the war the 261 00:12:06,220 --> 00:12:04,579 Japanese are working on these gigantic 262 00:12:08,160 --> 00:12:06,230 balloons that would come over to the 263 00:12:11,350 --> 00:12:08,170 United States with these detachable 264 00:12:14,710 --> 00:12:11,360 lifting body car type of craft in sort 265 00:12:17,139 --> 00:12:14,720 of like a kamikaze type mode so the the 266 00:12:20,410 --> 00:12:17,149 technology for the sort of radically 267 00:12:22,630 --> 00:12:20,420 different balloon devices were brought 268 00:12:25,810 --> 00:12:22,640 to New Mexico as well where a lot of the 269 00:12:27,519 --> 00:12:25,820 studies were undertaken and according to 270 00:12:29,980 --> 00:12:27,529 the story that was given Sara Mae there 271 00:12:32,050 --> 00:12:29,990 were actually several fatal incidents in 272 00:12:33,970 --> 00:12:32,060 with these flights in New Mexico but one 273 00:12:35,800 --> 00:12:33,980 of them most of them were hidden because 274 00:12:38,319 --> 00:12:35,810 the military got there first when these 275 00:12:40,780 --> 00:12:38,329 things came down but with the Roswell 276 00:12:42,940 --> 00:12:40,790 case as everybody knows that the rancher 277 00:12:45,430 --> 00:12:42,950 at the foster ranch where the wreckage 278 00:12:47,319 --> 00:12:45,440 was found Mac Brazel the rancher got 279 00:12:49,389 --> 00:12:47,329 there before anybody else and that 280 00:12:51,699 --> 00:12:49,399 included the military so they cat was 281 00:12:54,370 --> 00:12:51,709 out of the bag so to speak and in this 282 00:12:56,860 --> 00:12:54,380 case again it was one of these massive 283 00:12:58,199 --> 00:12:56,870 balloon array supposedly with a 284 00:13:01,889 --> 00:12:58,209 detachable craft 285 00:13:03,449 --> 00:13:01,899 and people on board and because you know 286 00:13:05,730 --> 00:13:03,459 you had these connections with the Nazis 287 00:13:08,189 --> 00:13:05,740 and the Japanese and the human 288 00:13:10,230 --> 00:13:08,199 experimentation angle it was all hidden 289 00:13:13,319 --> 00:13:10,240 under this sort of cover of weather 290 00:13:15,720 --> 00:13:13,329 balloons flying discs crash-test dummies 291 00:13:17,519 --> 00:13:15,730 mogul balloons and who knows how many 292 00:13:20,309 --> 00:13:17,529 cover stories now of course the big 293 00:13:21,689 --> 00:13:20,319 question is is that the real scenario 294 00:13:24,299 --> 00:13:21,699 you know as I pointed out in the new 295 00:13:26,730 --> 00:13:24,309 book there are sort of 10 or 12 theories 296 00:13:28,919 --> 00:13:26,740 so what happened at Roswell so you know 297 00:13:31,019 --> 00:13:28,929 they that's why the case is so 298 00:13:33,030 --> 00:13:31,029 controversial because there are so many 299 00:13:36,449 --> 00:13:33,040 theories but this is the one more than 300 00:13:38,429 --> 00:13:36,459 any other that I've sort of pursued well 301 00:13:41,309 --> 00:13:38,439 Redford never admits that he fully buys 302 00:13:44,220 --> 00:13:41,319 this theory his evidence that he brought 303 00:13:46,590 --> 00:13:44,230 forward was very compelling and it 304 00:13:48,929 --> 00:13:46,600 actually coincides with several stories 305 00:13:52,139 --> 00:13:48,939 I heard firsthand in Roswell New Mexico 306 00:13:54,210 --> 00:13:52,149 in a makes a lot of sense that where you 307 00:13:55,980 --> 00:13:54,220 look at it but just like any good 308 00:13:58,139 --> 00:13:55,990 mystery we may never know 309 00:14:02,759 --> 00:13:58,149 what truly happened in Roswell New 310 00:14:06,119 --> 00:14:02,769 Mexico in 1947 moving away from Roswell 311 00:14:09,210 --> 00:14:06,129 we had to Utah in episode 11 featuring 312 00:14:11,669 --> 00:14:09,220 the UFO researcher Erica Lucas she 313 00:14:14,449 --> 00:14:11,679 recalled a very interesting UFO case 314 00:14:17,960 --> 00:14:14,459 reported by pilots for American Airlines 315 00:14:20,999 --> 00:14:17,970 shortly after midnight on January 14th 316 00:14:24,299 --> 00:14:21,009 2016 a pilot reported seeing an 317 00:14:26,269 --> 00:14:24,309 extremely long bright object that he 318 00:14:28,530 --> 00:14:26,279 estimated a mile wide 319 00:14:30,379 --> 00:14:28,540 apparently the air traffic controller 320 00:14:33,449 --> 00:14:30,389 told the pilot that the object was not 321 00:14:36,569 --> 00:14:33,459 detected on radar the object appeared to 322 00:14:39,179 --> 00:14:36,579 keep pace with the aircraft here's Erica 323 00:14:41,210 --> 00:14:39,189 explaining the case and even sharing 324 00:14:42,950 --> 00:14:41,220 exclusive audio from the FAA 325 00:14:47,300 --> 00:14:42,960 communications 326 00:14:50,000 --> 00:14:47,310 would you mind trying to us through this 327 00:14:54,380 --> 00:14:50,010 very complex case and what you were able 328 00:14:57,230 --> 00:14:54,390 to obtain from an FOI a request oh my 329 00:14:59,570 --> 00:14:57,240 gosh this this case was it's truly the 330 00:15:01,790 --> 00:14:59,580 highlight of my time investigating but I 331 00:15:04,040 --> 00:15:01,800 had a I have a friend his name is Pat 332 00:15:07,340 --> 00:15:04,050 Daniels and he hosts the fringe radio 333 00:15:10,250 --> 00:15:07,350 show and he's also an avid ham radio 334 00:15:15,139 --> 00:15:10,260 operator he does all sorts of things 335 00:15:18,680 --> 00:15:15,149 scanning frequencies and and he is he'd 336 00:15:21,500 --> 00:15:18,690 be contacted me because he had listened 337 00:15:23,930 --> 00:15:21,510 to something that was that really piqued 338 00:15:25,850 --> 00:15:23,940 his interest and was almost alarming to 339 00:15:27,590 --> 00:15:25,860 him he had been sitting at his desk 340 00:15:31,400 --> 00:15:27,600 doing some work a little after midnight 341 00:15:34,579 --> 00:15:31,410 on January 14th and he heard a couple 342 00:15:37,910 --> 00:15:34,589 transmissions from a pilot or the crew 343 00:15:40,910 --> 00:15:37,920 of the craft asking what this this 344 00:15:44,300 --> 00:15:40,920 object was that appeared to be keeping 345 00:15:46,670 --> 00:15:44,310 pace with the plane and then you've you 346 00:15:49,760 --> 00:15:46,680 know I mean it was a large orange square 347 00:15:51,949 --> 00:15:49,770 object and he said you know he said I've 348 00:15:54,350 --> 00:15:51,959 in all my years of just scanning 349 00:15:57,680 --> 00:15:54,360 frequencies I have never heard this ever 350 00:16:01,070 --> 00:15:57,690 and knowing that he is a good human 351 00:16:03,410 --> 00:16:01,080 being who was kind of shaken by this I 352 00:16:07,250 --> 00:16:03,420 decided that I was going to try to find 353 00:16:10,790 --> 00:16:07,260 out more and so I grabbed my assistant 354 00:16:12,829 --> 00:16:10,800 state director Jeff Cox and we went to 355 00:16:16,940 --> 00:16:12,839 the ATC the air traffic control website 356 00:16:19,220 --> 00:16:16,950 and just scoured it to find any bits and 357 00:16:21,620 --> 00:16:19,230 pieces of this transmission and lo and 358 00:16:25,730 --> 00:16:21,630 behold we were able to find a brief 359 00:16:29,269 --> 00:16:25,740 snippet of a pilot talking or the crew 360 00:16:59,090 --> 00:16:29,279 talking asking with flight control what 361 00:16:59,100 --> 00:17:07,550 my composure 34 that is Nephi Nephi Utah 362 00:17:13,680 --> 00:17:11,820 and and so what we did men again I was 363 00:17:16,680 --> 00:17:13,690 working with Bill Puckett I brought him 364 00:17:20,220 --> 00:17:16,690 in and we submitted a FOIA request for 365 00:17:22,560 --> 00:17:20,230 radar data for audio logs and our for 366 00:17:24,600 --> 00:17:22,570 the tower logs and for audio the FAA 367 00:17:28,620 --> 00:17:24,610 actually and about six to eight weeks 368 00:17:31,260 --> 00:17:28,630 sent back all the radar data which was 369 00:17:34,170 --> 00:17:31,270 incredible they sent back some of the 370 00:17:36,390 --> 00:17:34,180 audio and there was a portion of the 371 00:17:40,290 --> 00:17:36,400 audio that was redacted which was 372 00:17:43,590 --> 00:17:40,300 curious but after careful analysis of 373 00:17:46,650 --> 00:17:43,600 the radar data we were able to determine 374 00:17:50,070 --> 00:17:46,660 that there was something absolutely 375 00:17:54,420 --> 00:17:50,080 incredible it was spanning almost a six 376 00:17:57,330 --> 00:17:54,430 mile area over a remote part of just 377 00:17:59,640 --> 00:17:57,340 right outside of Nephi Utah so that 378 00:18:03,090 --> 00:17:59,650 coupled with the fact that you've got 379 00:18:04,770 --> 00:18:03,100 the snippet of audio really made a 380 00:18:07,500 --> 00:18:04,780 powerful case you know when you're 381 00:18:10,890 --> 00:18:07,510 looking for for evidence you can't 382 00:18:12,450 --> 00:18:10,900 really argue with this especially 383 00:18:15,150 --> 00:18:12,460 because you know bill Puckett is so 384 00:18:17,100 --> 00:18:15,160 methodical and he sends the data to 385 00:18:19,590 --> 00:18:17,110 other researchers all over the world to 386 00:18:21,870 --> 00:18:19,600 get their feedback and it was it was 387 00:18:25,440 --> 00:18:21,880 quite curious he was able to rule out 388 00:18:28,860 --> 00:18:25,450 anomalous propagation and it's you can 389 00:18:31,710 --> 00:18:28,870 go to UFOs Northwest and actually look 390 00:18:35,550 --> 00:18:31,720 at the great work that he did on the 391 00:18:37,050 --> 00:18:35,560 case and after investigating Jeff Cox 392 00:18:39,720 --> 00:18:37,060 and I reaching out to the community you 393 00:18:42,050 --> 00:18:39,730 know we put an ad on the paper talked to 394 00:18:45,210 --> 00:18:42,060 everybody there did a lot of 395 00:18:47,730 --> 00:18:45,220 investigating and looking at old cases 396 00:18:50,040 --> 00:18:47,740 and things I mean this is an area where 397 00:18:52,710 --> 00:18:50,050 there have been some interesting cases 398 00:18:54,240 --> 00:18:52,720 historically as well 399 00:18:57,899 --> 00:18:54,250 so what's going on there I don't know 400 00:19:01,560 --> 00:18:57,909 him now from Utah we head across the 401 00:19:03,659 --> 00:19:01,570 entire United States in episode 19 with 402 00:19:07,140 --> 00:19:03,669 New York Times bestselling author Ben 403 00:19:10,110 --> 00:19:07,150 Mezrich we talked all about his book the 404 00:19:13,289 --> 00:19:10,120 37th parallel the secret truth behind 405 00:19:15,810 --> 00:19:13,299 America's UFO highway which chronicles 406 00:19:18,870 --> 00:19:15,820 the life and investigations of UFO 407 00:19:20,940 --> 00:19:18,880 researcher Chuck Zukowski in his search 408 00:19:24,480 --> 00:19:20,950 for answers to the mysterious cattle 409 00:19:27,390 --> 00:19:24,490 mutilation phenomenon UFOs and a path of 410 00:19:31,610 --> 00:19:27,400 uncertainty and mystery across America 411 00:19:34,470 --> 00:19:31,620 known as the 37th parallel since 412 00:19:37,289 --> 00:19:34,480 basically the 60s but even earlier more 413 00:19:39,659 --> 00:19:37,299 than 10,000 cows and horses have been 414 00:19:42,450 --> 00:19:39,669 found lying on their left side usually 415 00:19:44,669 --> 00:19:42,460 missing organs the cuts are all circular 416 00:19:46,710 --> 00:19:44,679 and they look surgical and the animals 417 00:19:48,180 --> 00:19:46,720 are completely drained of blood you know 418 00:19:50,820 --> 00:19:48,190 there's no blood at the scene there's no 419 00:19:53,490 --> 00:19:50,830 blood in the bodies there's no witnesses 420 00:19:55,110 --> 00:19:53,500 no footprints no fingerprints no one's 421 00:19:57,779 --> 00:19:55,120 ever been arrested and no one's ever 422 00:20:00,000 --> 00:19:57,789 been caught doing it in the 70s it got 423 00:20:01,890 --> 00:20:00,010 so bad that three state governors got 424 00:20:04,169 --> 00:20:01,900 together and petitioned the Attorney 425 00:20:05,940 --> 00:20:04,179 General of the United States demanding 426 00:20:08,250 --> 00:20:05,950 an investigation and the FBI 427 00:20:10,350 --> 00:20:08,260 investigated used over a hundred agents 428 00:20:12,750 --> 00:20:10,360 and came to no conclusions they found 429 00:20:14,700 --> 00:20:12,760 nothing no one's ever been arrested so 430 00:20:17,610 --> 00:20:14,710 it's this very wide-reaching phenomenon 431 00:20:19,740 --> 00:20:17,620 in multiple states spanning 60 years 432 00:20:22,140 --> 00:20:19,750 that no one can figure out and you know 433 00:20:25,590 --> 00:20:22,150 whether it's related to some weird bio 434 00:20:27,539 --> 00:20:25,600 testing or some some cults you know was 435 00:20:29,789 --> 00:20:27,549 one theory or a biker gang with another 436 00:20:31,860 --> 00:20:29,799 theory it's so vast and the idea of 437 00:20:34,110 --> 00:20:31,870 these animals drained of blood it's just 438 00:20:36,180 --> 00:20:34,120 very creepy you know Chuck believes it's 439 00:20:39,180 --> 00:20:36,190 connected to UFOs there's often 440 00:20:41,190 --> 00:20:39,190 sightings in the same area the ranchers 441 00:20:42,870 --> 00:20:41,200 who see this happening always speak 442 00:20:45,510 --> 00:20:42,880 about things in the sky and then they 443 00:20:47,760 --> 00:20:45,520 think that there's a UFO component it's 444 00:20:50,279 --> 00:20:47,770 a weird one and no one can figure it out 445 00:20:51,840 --> 00:20:50,289 and you know it's it's something that 446 00:20:53,130 --> 00:20:51,850 hasn't really been covered very well 447 00:20:54,990 --> 00:20:53,140 every now and then you'll see an article 448 00:20:56,940 --> 00:20:55,000 here or there but you won't see any 449 00:20:59,370 --> 00:20:56,950 major mainstream you know journalists 450 00:21:00,810 --> 00:20:59,380 looking into it and it's it's just one 451 00:21:03,000 --> 00:21:00,820 of those things and I was always 452 00:21:04,770 --> 00:21:03,010 captivated by it just because it's so 453 00:21:06,120 --> 00:21:04,780 wide reaching you talk to these ranchers 454 00:21:08,160 --> 00:21:06,130 and their trauma 455 00:21:10,170 --> 00:21:08,170 you know they're there animals are 456 00:21:12,840 --> 00:21:10,180 mutilated in a very horrible fashion 457 00:21:15,300 --> 00:21:12,850 right and and to them it's it's a very 458 00:21:17,220 --> 00:21:15,310 big deal obviously because they live and 459 00:21:19,800 --> 00:21:17,230 die by these animals it's part of you 460 00:21:22,290 --> 00:21:19,810 know their their livelihood so it's it's 461 00:21:23,610 --> 00:21:22,300 really kind of a stunning thing and 462 00:21:27,390 --> 00:21:23,620 nobody really knows what's going on of 463 00:21:30,600 --> 00:21:27,400 it the cattle mutilation phenomenon is 464 00:21:33,420 --> 00:21:30,610 very dark and disturbing no matter what 465 00:21:35,880 --> 00:21:33,430 lay at the source of it but dark and 466 00:21:39,690 --> 00:21:35,890 disturbing is an understatement when it 467 00:21:41,610 --> 00:21:39,700 came to this next topic in episode 24 I 468 00:21:44,760 --> 00:21:41,620 interviewed investigative filmmaker 469 00:21:47,250 --> 00:21:44,770 Chris Guerin Tommy guarantee no has been 470 00:21:49,680 --> 00:21:47,260 on a lifelong search for answers to the 471 00:21:52,380 --> 00:21:49,690 Montauk Project said you have been 472 00:21:54,630 --> 00:21:52,390 carried out at Camp hero on Long Island 473 00:21:56,730 --> 00:21:54,640 New York the government claims that this 474 00:22:01,050 --> 00:21:56,740 site is a shudder of military base that 475 00:22:03,210 --> 00:22:01,060 once protected Americans but for decades 476 00:22:05,700 --> 00:22:03,220 endless rumors maintained that the US 477 00:22:08,010 --> 00:22:05,710 government engaged in a pattern of 478 00:22:11,610 --> 00:22:08,020 covert behavior a better thought 479 00:22:12,210 --> 00:22:11,620 experiment on its own citizens preston 480 00:22:14,490 --> 00:22:12,220 nichols 481 00:22:16,560 --> 00:22:14,500 wrote a book all about it and working 482 00:22:19,410 --> 00:22:16,570 off of that book and the claims by 483 00:22:23,580 --> 00:22:19,420 nichols guarantee no runs us through how 484 00:22:27,300 --> 00:22:23,590 this project came to be the area in camp 485 00:22:30,210 --> 00:22:27,310 hero has a vast history that goes way 486 00:22:32,700 --> 00:22:30,220 back so the Revolutionary War before 487 00:22:34,710 --> 00:22:32,710 that and it's also the same location 488 00:22:36,570 --> 00:22:34,720 that just after the spanish-american war 489 00:22:39,090 --> 00:22:36,580 Theodore Roosevelt and the Rough Riders 490 00:22:40,710 --> 00:22:39,100 were kind of quarantined out there so 491 00:22:43,140 --> 00:22:40,720 there's always like activity out there 492 00:22:46,770 --> 00:22:43,150 later it becomes a place called fort 493 00:22:50,370 --> 00:22:46,780 hero and world war ii it's turned into 494 00:22:52,680 --> 00:22:50,380 the camp hero Air Force Station and so 495 00:22:55,950 --> 00:22:52,690 as we know in history this is the place 496 00:22:58,700 --> 00:22:55,960 where before satellite technology was 497 00:23:00,810 --> 00:22:58,710 established the sage radar tower 498 00:23:02,790 --> 00:23:00,820 semi-automatic ground environment radar 499 00:23:05,730 --> 00:23:02,800 tower that big iconic radar tower was 500 00:23:08,160 --> 00:23:05,740 built and designed and used for a 501 00:23:10,980 --> 00:23:08,170 variety of purposes detecting enemy 502 00:23:13,530 --> 00:23:10,990 ships they claim that their submarine 503 00:23:15,170 --> 00:23:13,540 bases underneath and I would of course 504 00:23:18,000 --> 00:23:15,180 believe it because it's just this giant 505 00:23:20,010 --> 00:23:18,010 stronghold it's on it it's on a cliff 506 00:23:21,990 --> 00:23:20,020 face in the Atlantic Ocean 507 00:23:24,360 --> 00:23:22,000 very furthest eastern tip of Long Island 508 00:23:27,410 --> 00:23:24,370 but where the weird stuff starts coming 509 00:23:29,760 --> 00:23:27,420 in is at the end of World War two 510 00:23:32,790 --> 00:23:29,770 Nuremberg trials you know there were a 511 00:23:34,380 --> 00:23:32,800 lot of people who were spared as spoils 512 00:23:38,310 --> 00:23:34,390 of war in regard to the United States 513 00:23:41,490 --> 00:23:38,320 absorbing these Nazi scientists into our 514 00:23:43,410 --> 00:23:41,500 into our military into our scientific 515 00:23:44,850 --> 00:23:43,420 and military development they were 516 00:23:47,250 --> 00:23:44,860 developing rockets and all sorts of 517 00:23:49,800 --> 00:23:47,260 crazy things for the Nazis so instead of 518 00:23:52,170 --> 00:23:49,810 hanging them we brought them over and 519 00:23:53,250 --> 00:23:52,180 this was called Operation Paperclip or 520 00:23:56,310 --> 00:23:53,260 Project Paperclip 521 00:23:58,680 --> 00:23:56,320 and it was those paperclip scientists 522 00:24:01,950 --> 00:23:58,690 that preston nichols and alfred Bielek 523 00:24:03,720 --> 00:24:01,960 claimed began the Montauk Project it all 524 00:24:06,090 --> 00:24:03,730 started at a place called Brookhaven 525 00:24:10,290 --> 00:24:06,100 National Labs which is a little further 526 00:24:12,390 --> 00:24:10,300 west of camp hero Air Force Station and 527 00:24:15,990 --> 00:24:12,400 according to Nichols he was eventually 528 00:24:18,690 --> 00:24:16,000 recruited by the the the Brookhaven 529 00:24:22,350 --> 00:24:18,700 National Labs because of his expertise 530 00:24:25,140 --> 00:24:22,360 and electronics and other reasons more 531 00:24:26,790 --> 00:24:25,150 or esoteric reasons like it the fact 532 00:24:29,190 --> 00:24:26,800 that he has psychic abilities the fact 533 00:24:31,710 --> 00:24:29,200 that he has you know this connection 534 00:24:34,530 --> 00:24:31,720 with certain energies so he claims and 535 00:24:36,780 --> 00:24:34,540 so he was recruited by the labs first 536 00:24:38,880 --> 00:24:36,790 and then the Montauk Project came about 537 00:24:40,770 --> 00:24:38,890 because according to Nichols and and 538 00:24:42,980 --> 00:24:40,780 Bielek Congress had a big problem with 539 00:24:46,160 --> 00:24:42,990 eventually because we did kind of 540 00:24:48,210 --> 00:24:46,170 celebrate these Nazi scientists 541 00:24:51,420 --> 00:24:48,220 libraries named after than I think it 542 00:24:53,340 --> 00:24:51,430 and 11.5 um so Congress had an issue 543 00:24:55,710 --> 00:24:53,350 with these guys they got kicked out of 544 00:24:58,140 --> 00:24:55,720 Brookhaven National Labs and according 545 00:25:00,420 --> 00:24:58,150 to Nichols the skits kind of muddy but 546 00:25:02,820 --> 00:25:00,430 he said that they established the 547 00:25:05,820 --> 00:25:02,830 Montauk Project in a facility deep 548 00:25:07,770 --> 00:25:05,830 beneath the ground at Camp hero I'm not 549 00:25:10,200 --> 00:25:07,780 sure what was embellished and what was 550 00:25:12,690 --> 00:25:10,210 it and I had I've had over a decade now 551 00:25:15,270 --> 00:25:12,700 on this subject matter so you know it 552 00:25:16,650 --> 00:25:15,280 begins with this very thin book which 553 00:25:19,080 --> 00:25:16,660 was that first book that Nichols 554 00:25:21,960 --> 00:25:19,090 published with a very small bit of 555 00:25:24,960 --> 00:25:21,970 information to go on I've since I feel 556 00:25:26,700 --> 00:25:24,970 between the dark files between speaking 557 00:25:28,050 --> 00:25:26,710 to these gentlemen for montar Chronicles 558 00:25:30,360 --> 00:25:28,060 and in my own personal research 559 00:25:32,250 --> 00:25:30,370 furthering you know everyday looking for 560 00:25:33,779 --> 00:25:32,260 things and it's talking to people that I 561 00:25:35,999 --> 00:25:33,789 did an interview for those those 562 00:25:38,070 --> 00:25:36,009 projects I feel like I found significant 563 00:25:40,469 --> 00:25:38,080 evidence that corroborates at least some 564 00:25:41,609 --> 00:25:40,479 of his story the more believable stuff 565 00:25:43,680 --> 00:25:41,619 though and I'm not saying I don't 566 00:25:46,349 --> 00:25:43,690 believe in time travel or I don't 567 00:25:48,239 --> 00:25:46,359 believe in extraterrestrial intelligence 568 00:25:52,649 --> 00:25:48,249 I'm just not sure all that happened they 569 00:25:54,330 --> 00:25:52,659 can't you know if any of our Preston 570 00:25:57,419 --> 00:25:54,340 Nichols and others have to say about 571 00:26:00,149 --> 00:25:57,429 camp hero is true this is far more 572 00:26:02,940 --> 00:26:00,159 disturbing than any threat in our skies 573 00:26:06,180 --> 00:26:02,950 by aerial phenomenon and this is one 574 00:26:07,739 --> 00:26:06,190 interview that shook me to the core if 575 00:26:11,099 --> 00:26:07,749 you haven't listened definitely check it 576 00:26:13,950 --> 00:26:11,109 out in the archives from documentaries 577 00:26:16,019 --> 00:26:13,960 and TV shows we move to the silver 578 00:26:18,509 --> 00:26:16,029 screen where I got to interview cinema 579 00:26:21,089 --> 00:26:18,519 studies professor and author Robby 580 00:26:23,430 --> 00:26:21,099 Graham about the intricate and intimate 581 00:26:25,499 --> 00:26:23,440 relationship between Hollywood and the 582 00:26:30,060 --> 00:26:25,509 military when it came to the topic of 583 00:26:32,489 --> 00:26:30,070 UFOs in episode 31 Graham uses a very 584 00:26:34,440 --> 00:26:32,499 well known alien film to back up his 585 00:26:36,560 --> 00:26:34,450 observations of this relationship 586 00:26:40,320 --> 00:26:36,570 through the lens of the first 587 00:26:42,029 --> 00:26:40,330 independence day have a listen sometimes 588 00:26:44,190 --> 00:26:42,039 the military will approach filmmakers 589 00:26:46,369 --> 00:26:44,200 but usually it's the other way around 590 00:26:48,210 --> 00:26:46,379 film a call approach the military 591 00:26:50,430 --> 00:26:48,220 seeking their cooperation on a 592 00:26:52,229 --> 00:26:50,440 production in order to cut costs on that 593 00:26:53,969 --> 00:26:52,239 production so if you're making a war 594 00:26:57,509 --> 00:26:53,979 movie an action movie that requires 595 00:27:00,330 --> 00:26:57,519 tanks guns jets you know express troops 596 00:27:02,430 --> 00:27:00,340 then especially before the age of CGI 597 00:27:04,830 --> 00:27:02,440 the only way to create that really is 598 00:27:07,289 --> 00:27:04,840 through expensive props or to actually 599 00:27:09,060 --> 00:27:07,299 get the real stuff on screen with the 600 00:27:10,739 --> 00:27:09,070 help of the military and the military is 601 00:27:14,869 --> 00:27:10,749 only would only to willing to lend its 602 00:27:18,119 --> 00:27:14,879 toys to to Hollywood but it has to be 603 00:27:19,259 --> 00:27:18,129 mutually beneficial so the military the 604 00:27:21,119 --> 00:27:19,269 military will say look we'll give you 605 00:27:23,399 --> 00:27:21,129 our stuff if you sign a contract with us 606 00:27:26,609 --> 00:27:23,409 which enables us to oversee your 607 00:27:29,849 --> 00:27:26,619 production and we can alter as we see 608 00:27:32,609 --> 00:27:29,859 fit anything in your script that we 609 00:27:34,139 --> 00:27:32,619 deemed to be objectionable anything that 610 00:27:37,379 --> 00:27:34,149 paints the military in a negative light 611 00:27:39,450 --> 00:27:37,389 or anything that we don't agree with in 612 00:27:42,089 --> 00:27:39,460 terms of depictions of you know national 613 00:27:44,369 --> 00:27:42,099 security policy or etc etc they can 614 00:27:46,409 --> 00:27:44,379 change this and do in in Hollywood 615 00:27:47,550 --> 00:27:46,419 scripts and so what you have is is a 616 00:27:52,710 --> 00:27:47,560 sort 617 00:27:54,990 --> 00:27:52,720 a legal open form of propaganda and and 618 00:27:56,990 --> 00:27:55,000 it's all a okay and aboveboard but it's 619 00:27:59,370 --> 00:27:57,000 not really publicized too much you know 620 00:28:02,760 --> 00:27:59,380 and that relationship has been very 621 00:28:04,250 --> 00:28:02,770 healthy and ongoing for a long time in 622 00:28:06,710 --> 00:28:04,260 recent years what you've had is 623 00:28:08,910 --> 00:28:06,720 filmmakers becoming increasingly willing 624 00:28:10,440 --> 00:28:08,920 excuse me the Department of Defense 625 00:28:13,730 --> 00:28:10,450 becoming increasingly willing to work 626 00:28:16,860 --> 00:28:13,740 with UFO themed productions until the 627 00:28:18,690 --> 00:28:16,870 late 1990s that was not the case there 628 00:28:21,840 --> 00:28:18,700 had been a policy dating back to the 629 00:28:25,700 --> 00:28:21,850 1950s where the US government and 630 00:28:28,050 --> 00:28:25,710 military were very reluctant you know to 631 00:28:30,960 --> 00:28:28,060 cooperate on any UFO theme productions 632 00:28:32,490 --> 00:28:30,970 in Hollywood and that was as a result of 633 00:28:35,370 --> 00:28:32,500 recommendations made by the Robertson 634 00:28:36,960 --> 00:28:35,380 panel in 1953 who suggested that UFOs be 635 00:28:39,810 --> 00:28:36,970 debunked and demystified through media 636 00:28:42,720 --> 00:28:39,820 channels and that did have an effect so 637 00:28:45,810 --> 00:28:42,730 so generally right through to the late 638 00:28:47,760 --> 00:28:45,820 1990s whenever a filmmaker approached a 639 00:28:49,440 --> 00:28:47,770 branch of the government or military for 640 00:28:52,020 --> 00:28:49,450 cooperation on a UFO theme production 641 00:28:53,370 --> 00:28:52,030 the response was no we will not help you 642 00:28:55,470 --> 00:28:53,380 because UFOs don't exist and it 643 00:28:59,340 --> 00:28:55,480 contravenes our policy so so that was 644 00:29:00,600 --> 00:28:59,350 the policy but then in mid 1990s on the 645 00:29:02,250 --> 00:29:00,610 first Independence Day when the 646 00:29:04,590 --> 00:29:02,260 filmmakers Roland Emmerich and Dean 647 00:29:06,030 --> 00:29:04,600 Devlin approached the Department of 648 00:29:07,500 --> 00:29:06,040 Defense for their cooperation for 649 00:29:09,330 --> 00:29:07,510 obvious reasons the Department of 650 00:29:12,360 --> 00:29:09,340 Defense said look we have all sorts of 651 00:29:14,700 --> 00:29:12,370 problems with your script but the the 652 00:29:17,760 --> 00:29:14,710 sticking points for us are that you 653 00:29:18,960 --> 00:29:17,770 include area 51 as being central to the 654 00:29:21,210 --> 00:29:18,970 plot and you also make reference to the 655 00:29:23,550 --> 00:29:21,220 Roswell incident and you suggest that 656 00:29:25,770 --> 00:29:23,560 the president is has been kept in the 657 00:29:29,950 --> 00:29:27,940 why the hell wasn't I told about this 658 00:29:35,070 --> 00:29:29,960 place two words mr. president 659 00:29:41,850 --> 00:29:39,990 [Music] 660 00:29:43,410 --> 00:29:41,860 I don't understand where does all this 661 00:29:45,600 --> 00:29:43,420 come from how do you get funding for 662 00:29:47,900 --> 00:29:45,610 something like this you don't actually 663 00:29:51,510 --> 00:29:47,910 think they spend $20,000 on a hammer 664 00:29:52,950 --> 00:29:51,520 $30,000 on a toilet seat that's 665 00:29:54,480 --> 00:29:52,960 obviously not the case you know these 666 00:29:55,950 --> 00:29:54,490 isn't this is this is what they said 667 00:29:57,870 --> 00:29:55,960 specifically in their in their script 668 00:29:59,970 --> 00:29:57,880 notes to the filmmakers and to their 669 00:30:01,080 --> 00:29:59,980 credit the filmmakers went their own way 670 00:30:02,370 --> 00:30:01,090 and they said look we can't take those 671 00:30:04,500 --> 00:30:02,380 things out of the script because they're 672 00:30:05,820 --> 00:30:04,510 central to it and we're gonna we're 673 00:30:07,770 --> 00:30:05,830 going to do it with CGI and that's what 674 00:30:10,620 --> 00:30:07,780 they did and then as a result of that I 675 00:30:12,510 --> 00:30:10,630 am convinced as a direct result of that 676 00:30:14,430 --> 00:30:12,520 the the Department of Defense recognized 677 00:30:17,310 --> 00:30:14,440 very quickly when they saw that that 678 00:30:19,020 --> 00:30:17,320 film became the most successful of 1996 679 00:30:21,000 --> 00:30:19,030 and one of the most successful of the 680 00:30:24,480 --> 00:30:21,010 decade grossing over 800 million dollars 681 00:30:25,920 --> 00:30:24,490 they realized oh my god we've made we've 682 00:30:28,080 --> 00:30:25,930 missed out on a huge opportunity here 683 00:30:29,460 --> 00:30:28,090 because had we given them as to put our 684 00:30:31,560 --> 00:30:29,470 support we would have had access to the 685 00:30:33,030 --> 00:30:31,570 script how do we access to the script we 686 00:30:35,670 --> 00:30:33,040 could have shaped the narrative in a way 687 00:30:37,710 --> 00:30:35,680 that serves us we could shape we could 688 00:30:39,420 --> 00:30:37,720 we could try and steer particular 689 00:30:41,670 --> 00:30:39,430 beliefs within the UFO conspiracy 690 00:30:44,370 --> 00:30:41,680 community we could you know we could 691 00:30:46,110 --> 00:30:44,380 better portray our own history with with 692 00:30:47,910 --> 00:30:46,120 relation to UFOs we could you know we 693 00:30:49,140 --> 00:30:47,920 could massage it as we see fit but 694 00:30:52,140 --> 00:30:49,150 because they denied their cooperation 695 00:30:54,390 --> 00:30:52,150 they lost that opportunity the marriage 696 00:30:56,870 --> 00:30:54,400 between Hollywood and strange topics 697 00:30:59,940 --> 00:30:56,880 like UFOs the supernatural and 698 00:31:02,130 --> 00:30:59,950 everything in between has never been as 699 00:31:05,730 --> 00:31:02,140 close than with my favorite television 700 00:31:08,040 --> 00:31:05,740 series of all time the x-files and I had 701 00:31:11,010 --> 00:31:08,050 the chance to speak with Dean Haglund 702 00:31:13,110 --> 00:31:11,020 in episode 39 you may remember him as 703 00:31:15,390 --> 00:31:13,120 the blond-haired conspiracy geek at 704 00:31:18,690 --> 00:31:15,400 Langley one of the members of the lone 705 00:31:20,520 --> 00:31:18,700 gunman Hagelin shared some insight and 706 00:31:23,670 --> 00:31:20,530 what he experienced in terms of how 707 00:31:27,530 --> 00:31:23,680 closely the show truly was - some 708 00:31:30,090 --> 00:31:27,540 real-life cases in the FBI and beyond I 709 00:31:32,220 --> 00:31:30,100 mean we all know you know sort of Dean 710 00:31:35,460 --> 00:31:32,230 at this point that the x-files did use a 711 00:31:38,370 --> 00:31:35,470 lot of actual case material or had 712 00:31:39,990 --> 00:31:38,380 people on set you know sort of advising 713 00:31:41,670 --> 00:31:40,000 in terms of when it came to how the 714 00:31:45,780 --> 00:31:41,680 military might have been involved with 715 00:31:48,150 --> 00:31:45,790 this or obviously the FBI right did you 716 00:31:51,570 --> 00:31:48,160 ever come across anything I guess while 717 00:31:52,600 --> 00:31:51,580 filming or in the script or even with 718 00:31:54,970 --> 00:31:52,610 lone gunman 719 00:31:57,789 --> 00:31:54,980 in terms of that if you if like the 720 00:31:59,350 --> 00:31:57,799 conspiracy you know correlated a little 721 00:32:01,660 --> 00:31:59,360 too closely with what you guys were 722 00:32:05,140 --> 00:32:01,670 working on we all know the whole 911 723 00:32:07,450 --> 00:32:05,150 thing I know that's a great example 724 00:32:09,310 --> 00:32:07,460 absolute but but that was just I think 725 00:32:11,260 --> 00:32:09,320 that was a weird coincidence if you're 726 00:32:14,289 --> 00:32:11,270 saying that you know I've had 727 00:32:16,390 --> 00:32:14,299 like when I did when I still do stand-up 728 00:32:17,650 --> 00:32:16,400 but I was touring a lot while the show 729 00:32:20,200 --> 00:32:17,660 was on the air and people would come to 730 00:32:23,260 --> 00:32:20,210 my comedy shows all around North America 731 00:32:26,890 --> 00:32:23,270 and after the shows sometimes there'd be 732 00:32:28,570 --> 00:32:26,900 like you know I work for the FBI do you 733 00:32:30,940 --> 00:32:28,580 want come by the office you know I went 734 00:32:33,580 --> 00:32:30,950 to the San Antonio office and got to sit 735 00:32:35,470 --> 00:32:33,590 in the head FBI or NOAA was in San 736 00:32:38,650 --> 00:32:35,480 Antonio was al Paso you know so there's 737 00:32:42,130 --> 00:32:38,660 pictures of me in Kevlar vests and in 738 00:32:44,620 --> 00:32:42,140 FBI stuff and and those guys would say 739 00:32:46,120 --> 00:32:44,630 so these stories particularly and they 740 00:32:47,680 --> 00:32:46,130 would like say an episode stuff like 741 00:32:50,140 --> 00:32:47,690 that so where'd that information come 742 00:32:53,740 --> 00:32:50,150 from and then I go I'll and all the 743 00:32:55,870 --> 00:32:53,750 writers wrote it ah yeah okay and I go 744 00:32:57,549 --> 00:32:55,880 why is it closed well we can't say you 745 00:33:00,820 --> 00:32:57,559 so they would never tell me exactly what 746 00:33:02,950 --> 00:33:00,830 was co-relating so closely but they were 747 00:33:05,620 --> 00:33:02,960 curious enough to actually specify 748 00:33:08,710 --> 00:33:05,630 specific examples and specific episodes 749 00:33:13,900 --> 00:33:08,720 to go how did you get that information 750 00:33:17,230 --> 00:33:13,910 so either it is just luck of the writers 751 00:33:19,950 --> 00:33:17,240 or you know somehow some classified 752 00:33:23,560 --> 00:33:19,960 information got onto the airwaves 753 00:33:26,140 --> 00:33:23,570 well the x-files fund did not stop there 754 00:33:29,830 --> 00:33:26,150 however in what many consider a new 755 00:33:32,560 --> 00:33:29,840 classic fan favorite the art of forehead 756 00:33:35,049 --> 00:33:32,570 sweat aired during the 11th and what 757 00:33:38,350 --> 00:33:35,059 many believed to be the last season ever 758 00:33:40,180 --> 00:33:38,360 of the x-files and the pivotal character 759 00:33:42,610 --> 00:33:40,190 driving this hilarious and a 760 00:33:45,220 --> 00:33:42,620 mind-bending episode was Reggie 761 00:33:47,590 --> 00:33:45,230 something literally that was his name 762 00:33:50,500 --> 00:33:47,600 and the name of the actor who played him 763 00:33:53,860 --> 00:33:50,510 may be familiar to many of you comedy 764 00:33:56,860 --> 00:33:53,870 buffs out there Brian Huskey join me for 765 00:33:59,289 --> 00:33:56,870 episode 42 while exploring the idea of 766 00:34:01,110 --> 00:33:59,299 the Mandela effect in which groups of 767 00:34:02,890 --> 00:34:01,120 people remember an alternate history 768 00:34:04,870 --> 00:34:02,900 Mulder and Scully 769 00:34:06,070 --> 00:34:04,880 discover how the x-files may have 770 00:34:08,020 --> 00:34:06,080 originated 771 00:34:09,970 --> 00:34:08,030 Huskies character Reggie something 772 00:34:13,060 --> 00:34:09,980 confronts Mulder Scully 773 00:34:16,419 --> 00:34:13,070 explaining that he may in fact not be a 774 00:34:18,490 --> 00:34:16,429 stranger but a third partner not only 775 00:34:21,070 --> 00:34:18,500 that but Reggie may hold the key to 776 00:34:22,870 --> 00:34:21,080 finding the truth to what is and always 777 00:34:25,150 --> 00:34:22,880 has been out there 778 00:34:27,790 --> 00:34:25,160 here Husky and I talked about the 779 00:34:28,780 --> 00:34:27,800 Mandela effect and we of course touch on 780 00:34:31,230 --> 00:34:28,790 the UFOs 781 00:34:34,600 --> 00:34:31,240 I think the Mandela effect is is 782 00:34:37,480 --> 00:34:34,610 plausible just in that memory and 783 00:34:41,470 --> 00:34:37,490 perspective is fallible and malleable 784 00:34:43,810 --> 00:34:41,480 and and people are far more honest a 785 00:34:46,419 --> 00:34:43,820 self-centered but your perspective on 786 00:34:49,630 --> 00:34:46,429 the universe is is your perspective yeah 787 00:34:52,030 --> 00:34:49,640 you can only your lens on what the world 788 00:34:54,820 --> 00:34:52,040 is and your experiences is always gonna 789 00:34:56,950 --> 00:34:54,830 be yourself so I think that's just 790 00:34:58,930 --> 00:34:56,960 inherently true I heard recently 791 00:35:01,000 --> 00:34:58,940 somebody said like you it's impossible 792 00:35:02,620 --> 00:35:01,010 to have sort of objectivity about 793 00:35:04,450 --> 00:35:02,630 yourself and I think that's true 794 00:35:06,820 --> 00:35:04,460 as you cuz even if he's like no I know 795 00:35:09,190 --> 00:35:06,830 myself like I know myself within the 796 00:35:11,320 --> 00:35:09,200 parameters of what I know about myself 797 00:35:13,000 --> 00:35:11,330 I'm willing to admit it by myself I 798 00:35:14,200 --> 00:35:13,010 think I mean that's a prime example of 799 00:35:16,570 --> 00:35:14,210 you know I've heard you in other 800 00:35:19,450 --> 00:35:16,580 interviews say like oh I wouldn't do an 801 00:35:21,310 --> 00:35:19,460 audition and I I think I did horrible 802 00:35:23,260 --> 00:35:21,320 and then you know once later you say you 803 00:35:25,930 --> 00:35:23,270 were perfect for the role you got it 804 00:35:28,120 --> 00:35:25,940 like yeah that's a good example there of 805 00:35:30,550 --> 00:35:28,130 like looking outside of yourself you 806 00:35:32,710 --> 00:35:30,560 know we only see this 2d version of 807

00:36:53,220 personal thoughts about UFOs man what 841 00:36:57,470 --> 00:36:55,410 the phenomenon if there's aliens out 842 00:36:59,359 --> 00:36:57,480 there which sort of stake you put in 843 00:37:01,670 --> 00:36:59,369 these sort of things you know we talk 844 00:37:04,070 --> 00:37:01,680 about this every week on somewhere in 845 00:37:06,770 --> 00:37:04,080 the skies but for you someone coming in 846 00:37:08,390 --> 00:37:06,780 as an actor and doing this I would love 847 00:37:10,520 --> 00:37:08,400 to hear if you did any sort of research 848 00:37:13,190 --> 00:37:10,530 into this stuff or what your personal 849 00:37:16,070 --> 00:37:13,200 take on all of it is well you know I got 850 00:37:20,020 --> 00:37:16,080 people of Earth I did a little research 851 00:37:24,140 --> 00:37:20,030 on more more so on people who believe in 852 00:37:25,609 --> 00:37:24,150 UFOs and and in doing that just like I 853 00:37:27,470 --> 00:37:25,619 would sort of learned about like oh yeah 854 00:37:28,849 --> 00:37:27,480 here's the this was probable and this is 855 00:37:31,010 --> 00:37:28,859 this is possible but I was more 856 00:37:33,620 --> 00:37:31,020 interested in researching people that 857 00:37:35,060 --> 00:37:33,630 have that those beliefs and because 858 00:37:36,710 --> 00:37:35,070 that's what the shows about like people 859 00:37:38,570 --> 00:37:36,720 who believe in aliens that are sort of 860 00:37:41,390 --> 00:37:38,580 like have to have to have a therapy 861 00:37:45,320 --> 00:37:41,400 group just through today as a result but 862 00:37:47,870 --> 00:37:45,330 I I I've never been I here's my here's 863 00:37:50,480 --> 00:37:47,880 my stance if we are the only life forms 864 00:37:52,580 --> 00:37:50,490 out there it's tragic 865 00:37:55,250 --> 00:37:52,590 you know because we I don't think we're 866 00:37:59,510 --> 00:37:55,260 doing a good job of it right now but the 867 00:38:01,490 --> 00:37:59,520 probability of that is is so small but I 868 00:38:04,609 --> 00:38:01,500 don't where I sort of like have a 869 00:38:06,710 --> 00:38:04,619 separation I was like I don't know if 870 00:38:09,500 --> 00:38:06,720 the technology exists where they could 871 00:38:11,870 --> 00:38:09,510 come to us and I say that only because I 872 00:38:14,720 --> 00:38:11,880 think I have maybe in comparison to the 873 00:38:17,180 --> 00:38:14,730 technology that is out there or to who 874 00:38:20,109 --> 00:38:17,190 knows like celestial awareness that's 875 00:38:22,760 --> 00:38:20,119 out there I think I have a very caveman 876 00:38:24,560 --> 00:38:22,770 perspective and sort of limitation as to 877 00:38:27,140 --> 00:38:24,570 what I can imagine that makes sense 878 00:38:29,960 --> 00:38:27,150 absolutely yeah yeah it really is the 879 00:38:30,830 --> 00:38:29,970 lens you look through it yeah yeah and 880 00:38:33,260 --> 00:38:30,840 you know going back 881 00:38:34,790 --> 00:38:33,270 to the episode is the kind of that Aaron 882 00:38:37,130 --> 00:38:34,800 Morgan episode is the kind of thing of 883 00:38:41,120 --> 00:38:37,140 like I'm gonna have I have my 884 00:38:43,460 --> 00:38:41,130 perspective on that truth based on the 885 00:38:45,590 --> 00:38:43,470 truth I have for myself and someone else 886 00:38:48,920 --> 00:38:45,600 might have a very different truth based 887 00:38:51,680 --> 00:38:48,930 on encounters they might have had and so 888 00:38:54,620 --> 00:38:51,690 it's it's bridging the the willingness 889 00:38:57,770 --> 00:38:54,630 or the awareness openness I don't know 890 00:39:00,410 --> 00:38:57,780 what kind of Ness is gonna be to to to 891 00:39:02,120 --> 00:39:00,420 say like oh yeah now now now that is 892 00:39:04,430 --> 00:39:02,130 true now I have sort of proof of that 893 00:39:06,350 --> 00:39:04,440 and the thing I guess in doing my 894 00:39:08,990 --> 00:39:06,360 research the the thing that was very 895 00:39:10,430 --> 00:39:09,000 solidifying for me was I can't remember 896 00:39:13,910 --> 00:39:10,440 his name but there was a Harvard 897 00:39:16,910 --> 00:39:13,920 professor who did a lot of profiling of 898 00:39:21,470 --> 00:39:16,920 people who said they were under teas 899 00:39:23,990 --> 00:39:21,480 right John Mack yes John Mack and for 900 00:39:27,110 --> 00:39:24,000 him to sort of put himself out there you 901 00:39:29,930 --> 00:39:27,120 know as this esteemed institution and 902 00:39:31,130 --> 00:39:29,940 say like I think it's true I don't think 903 00:39:34,910 --> 00:39:31,140 these people are lying I think there's a 904 00:39:38,560 --> 00:39:34,920 consistency in the the narrative that 905 00:39:40,820 --> 00:39:38,570 they share and the sort of effect and 906 00:39:42,950 --> 00:39:40,830 usually again I'm gonna believe her so 907 00:39:45,110 --> 00:39:42,960 you know that that's that kind of thing 908 00:39:49,160 --> 00:39:45,120 like well science will prove it and that 909 00:39:52,700 --> 00:39:49,170 helped it and now we move right next 910 00:39:55,100 --> 00:39:52,710 door to episode 43 where my mentor Peter 911 00:39:58,130 --> 00:39:55,110 Robbins joined me to tell us the tragic 912 00:40:00,370 --> 00:39:58,140 and mysterious story behind the death of 913 00:40:05,300 --> 00:40:00,380 former Secretary of Defense James 914 00:40:08,000 --> 00:40:05,310

00:43:06,290 listeners take the wheel in what I call 982 00:43:11,410 --> 00:43:09,890 my witness accounts episodes these are 983 00:43:14,110 --> 00:43:11,420 where witnesses and experiencers 984 00:43:16,510 --> 00:43:14,120 recalled their own UFO events in their 985 00:43:19,090 --> 00:43:16,520 own words these are by far the most 986 00:43:20,950 --> 00:43:19,100 listened to and downloaded episodes of 987 00:43:21,430 --> 00:43:20,960 somewhere in the scales and with good 988 00:43:24,790 --> 00:43:21,440 reason 989 00:43:27,550 --> 00:43:24,800 it's you telling your stories and how it

have on a person 993 00:43:38,350 --> 00:43:36,020 so right now I'm going to share just one 994 00:43:43,300 --> 00:43:38,360 of those accounts that really stuck with 995 00:43:47,020 --> 00:43:43,310 me from episode 46 me and my wife were 996 00:43:51,240 --> 00:43:47,030 both musicians we were playing a gig 997 00:43:57,070 --> 00:43:51,250 that night out in the suburbs of Chicago 998 00:43:58,540 --> 00:43:57,080 and we were driving in that cake is 999 00:44:00,570 --> 00:43:58,550 probably around 5:00 6:00 in the 1000 00:44:03,280 --> 00:44:00,580 afternoon it was still daylight out and 1001 00:44:06,190 --> 00:44:03,290 if you ever lived it or have been to 1002 00:44:08,920 --> 00:44:06,200 Chicago you know that usually no matter 1003 00:44:12,570 --> 00:44:08,930 where you're driving there's a lot of 1004 00:44:15,700 --> 00:44:12,580 cars all around you and when we were 1005 00:44:19,840 --> 00:44:15,710 driving along I can't remember which 1006 00:44:23,560 --> 00:44:19,850 highway it was maybe highway 290 is 1007 00:44:26,080 --> 00:44:23,570 there to 90 or 295 I could or to 94 I 1008 00:44:28,930 --> 00:44:26,090 can't remember anyways it was pretty 1009 00:44:31,600 --> 00:44:28,940 much bumper-to-bumper traffic except the 1010 00:44:34,990 --> 00:44:31,610 traffic was flowing at about between 45 1011 00:44:36,230 --> 00:44:35,000 55 miles an hour and so it was a nice 1012 00:44:38,300 --> 00:44:36,240 steady flow 1013 00:44:39,829 --> 00:44:38,310 and we're driving I'm driving the car 1014 00:44:40,820 --> 00:44:39,839 this time of shooting my wife is in the 1015 00:44:44,359 --> 00:44:40,830 passenger seat 1016 00:44:50,780 --> 00:44:44,369 and I look up and ahead up in traffic 1017 00:44:52,820 --> 00:44:50,790 and I saw this black balloon descending 1018 00:44:56,030 --> 00:44:52,830 out of the air I had no idea where it 1019 00:44:58,839 --> 00:44:56,040 came from it was just you know I just 1020 00:45:03,310 --> 00:44:58,849 looked and it was just there and it's 1021 00:45:06,320 --> 00:45:03,320 descending towards traffic and I kind of 1022 00:45:10,010 --> 00:45:06,330 nudged my wife and said hey check out 1023 00:45:12,230 --> 00:45:10,020 that balloon up there in front of us I 1024 00:45:14,450 --> 00:45:12,240 don't know why I felt the urge tell her 1025 00:45:18,140 --> 00:45:14,460 about it but I just had this weird 1026 00:45:20,240 --> 00:45:18,150 feeling paddock and and she looked in 1027 00:45:22,700 --> 00:45:20,250 the sky goes oh that's just an airplane 1028 00:45:24,079 --> 00:45:22,710 and I go no no no not the airplane 1029 00:45:26,359 --> 00:45:24,089 because there was an airplane the sky 1030 00:45:28,970 --> 00:45:26,369 said the balloon out in front of us cuz 1031 00:45:30,770 --> 00:45:28,980 this balloon was descending towards 1032 00:45:32,359 --> 00:45:30,780 traffic and she saw it and she was like 1033 00:45:37,160 --> 00:45:32,369 oh well that's weird 1034 00:45:40,550 --> 00:45:37,170 and we're watching it and it's getting 1035 00:45:42,470 --> 00:45:40,560 close to the cars at this point and my 1036 00:45:44,359 --> 00:45:42,480 wife was like getting a little concerned 1037 00:45:48,829 --> 00:45:44,369 she's like oh no it's gonna go into 1038 00:45:50,450 --> 00:45:48,839 traffic and I said you know that's not a 1039 00:45:52,640 --> 00:45:50,460 big deal it's just a balloon you know 1040 00:45:54,099 --> 00:45:52,650 the wind from the traffic is gonna blow 1041 00:45:56,900 --> 00:45:54,109 it back up in the air and it's gonna 1042 00:46:00,530 --> 00:45:56,910 flip around and and do it's balloon 1043 00:46:05,150 --> 00:46:00,540 stuff not a big deal don't worry about 1044 00:46:07,700 --> 00:46:05,160 it so right when it's about to like hit 1045 00:46:10,310 --> 00:46:07,710 that point when it's about to you know 1046 00:46:15,130 --> 00:46:10,320 flip back up in the air I'd say were you 1047 00:46:19,359 --> 00:46:15,140 know good three to four cars or back 1048 00:46:22,180 --> 00:46:19,369 from this thing and we're both watching 1049 00:46:26,410 --> 00:46:22,190 it waiting for it to go back up in the 1050 00:46:30,849 --> 00:46:26,420 air except that's not what it did it 1051 00:46:35,140 --> 00:46:30,859 came down and went right above a car in 1052 00:46:38,620 --> 00:46:35,150 the far left lane and it stopped right 1053 00:46:41,710 --> 00:46:38,630 above the roof I mean like I mean maybe 1054 00:46:44,710 --> 00:46:41,720 a foot above the roof at the most two 1055 00:46:47,079 --> 00:46:44,720 feet maybe I don't know but not that far 1056 00:46:50,380 --> 00:46:47,089 from the roof and when it got that it 1057 00:46:51,789 --> 00:46:50,390 stopped in it like locked onto the car I 1058 00:46:56,229 --> 00:46:51,799 don't know how else to say it like it 1059 00:47:01,769 --> 00:46:56,239 started tailing the car okay and you 1060 00:47:05,200 --> 00:47:01,779 have to understand that all the wind in 1061 00:47:08,400 --> 00:47:05,210 everything did not affect this thing it 1062 00:47:12,130 --> 00:47:08,410 was like it was attached to some sort of 1063 00:47:14,799 --> 00:47:12,140 you know rod or something that would be 1064 00:47:17,259 --> 00:47:14,809 attached to the roof of the car that's 1065 00:47:20,079 --> 00:47:17,269 how still and how rain lined with this 1066 00:47:21,880 --> 00:47:20,089 car it was is just tailing it it was 1067 00:47:26,289 --> 00:47:21,890 matching its speed remember we're going 1068 00:47:29,170 --> 00:47:26,299 45 between 45 55 miles an hour and it 1069 00:47:33,400 --> 00:47:29,180 matched every movement of this car going 1070 00:47:37,599 --> 00:47:33,410 around the turns and right then I was 1071 00:47:40,359 --> 00:47:37,609 just like oh man what what the hell is 1072 00:47:42,940 --> 00:47:40,369 going on and then I watched it ascend 1073 00:47:46,870 --> 00:47:42,950 back up in the air but when it went back 1074 00:47:49,690 --> 00:47:46,880 up in the air it went straight up in the 1075 00:47:52,029 --> 00:47:49,700 air and it was still keeping pace with 1076 00:47:54,580 --> 00:47:52,039 the cars underneath it was still going 1077 00:47:58,000 --> 00:47:54,590 at the same speed 1078 00:48:01,210 --> 00:47:58,010 and going straight in the air I mean 1079 00:48:04,080 --> 00:48:01,220 straight no weeble wobbling or anything 1080 00:48:09,460 --> 00:48:04,090 like that and the wind didn't affect it 1081 00:48:12,910 --> 00:48:09,470 okay and it went to the right to the 1082 00:48:14,920 --> 00:48:12,920 next car over and then it descended 1083 00:48:17,950 --> 00:48:14,930 again and started tailing the next car 1084 00:48:20,470 --> 00:48:17,960 next to it the same thing as it was 1085 00:48:23,050 --> 00:48:20,480 doing the other car keeping pace with it 1086 00:48:26,610 --> 00:48:23,060 not moving not budging it just stayed 1087 00:48:30,640 --> 00:48:26,620 there and after it did that for a while 1088 00:48:32,980 --> 00:48:30,650 it rose back up in the air straight and 1089 00:48:36,010 --> 00:48:32,990 it kind of stopped tailing the car 1090 00:48:38,110 --> 00:48:36,020 meaning that like it stopped going 45 to 1091 00:48:41,170 --> 00:48:38,120 55 miles an hour it was like it was done 1092 00:48:43,420 --> 00:48:41,180 with it you know and stopped going with 1093 00:48:45,790 --> 00:48:43,430 the speed of traffic and at that point 1094 00:48:48,030 --> 00:48:45,800 when it was rising in the air we drove 1095 00:48:50,860 --> 00:48:48,040 right underneath it like directly 1096 00:48:55,230 --> 00:48:50,870 underneath it and me and my wife both 1097 00:49:00,640 --> 00:48:55,240 looked up in the air at it and I saw it 1098 00:49:04,150 --> 00:49:00,650 up close it wasn't this wasn't some 1099 00:49:08,020 --> 00:49:04,160 light in the sky thing this was in broad 1100 00:49:09,520 --> 00:49:08,030 daylight up close it was not that that 1101 00:49:12,600 --> 00:49:09,530 high above our car when we drove 1102 00:49:17,800 --> 00:49:12,610 underneath it and it was a solid black 1103 00:49:23,290 --> 00:49:17,810 ball round ball it was solid there's no 1104 00:49:27,280 --> 00:49:23,300 wings no exhaust no propellers nothing 1105 00:49:34,020 --> 00:49:27,290 no means of any propulsion on it 1106 00:49:39,970 --> 00:49:37,390 you job how does a solid round ball with 1107 00:49:44,130 --> 00:49:39,980 none of those features even do anything 1108 00:49:48,220 --> 00:49:44,140 let alone do and maneuver in the way 1109 00:49:51,280 --> 00:49:48,230 that it did without any kind of 1110 00:49:55,510 --> 00:49:51,290 turbulence or air or anything affecting 1111 00:49:59,670 --> 00:49:55,520 his movement like it was like it was I 1112 00:50:01,810 --> 00:49:59,680 don't know it was like outside of 1113 00:50:04,720 --> 00:50:01,820 everything you know I don't know how 1114 00:50:08,280 --> 00:50:04,730 else to say it kind of like you know 1115 00:50:12,340 --> 00:50:08,290 like you hear about maybe it was warping 1116 00:50:13,750 --> 00:50:12,350 the space-time or gravity around it or 1117 00:50:16,240 --> 00:50:13,760 something like that maybe there's some 1118 00:50:19,540 --> 00:50:16,250 sort of bubble it was in that everything 1119 00:50:25,180 --> 00:50:19,550 else just it didn't affect it I don't 1120 00:50:26,710 --> 00:50:25,190 know but I don't that's all I have to 1121 00:50:30,790 --> 00:50:26,720 say the only other thing I can think of 1122 00:50:33,880 --> 00:50:30,800 is if it was maybe some sort of mesh 1123 00:50:36,910 --> 00:50:33,890 material that was so woven so tightly 1124 00:50:39,850 --> 00:50:36,920 that it appeared like it was solid like 1125 00:50:41,230 --> 00:50:39,860 it was a solid black but even then that 1126 00:50:44,110 --> 00:50:41,240 still wouldn't be it wouldn't be able to 1127 00:50:45,610 --> 00:50:44,120 do what it did it wouldn't that that 1128 00:50:47,710 --> 00:50:45,620 wouldn't indicate maybe there were 1129 00:50:53,560 --> 00:50:47,720 propellers inside of it but like like if 1130 00:50:55,750 --> 00:50:53,570 it was mess a mesh wiring or or fabric 1131 00:50:58,150 --> 00:50:55,760 or whatever that was so tight that it 1132 00:51:02,350 --> 00:50:58,160 appears completely saw it and I mean a 1133 00:51:04,720 --> 00:51:02,360 solid black just a solid object that it 1134 00:51:06,640 --> 00:51:04,730 would there's no way that there's no way 1135 00:51:07,030 --> 00:51:06,650 it could do what it did you know what I 1136 00:51:08,870 --> 00:51:07,040 mean 1137 00:51:11,150 --> 00:51:08,880 there's no way 1138 00:51:13,819 --> 00:51:11,160 as we drove under it and was you know we 1139 00:51:15,559 --> 00:51:13,829 got past it and I really want I wish I 1140 00:51:17,569 --> 00:51:15,569 could have just kept looking at it but I 1141 00:51:20,450 --> 00:51:17,579 had to drive no I couldn't 1142 00:51:24,979 --> 00:51:20,460 wreck the car then I was just sitting 1143 00:51:25,700 --> 00:51:24,989 there thinking I didn't see that that 1144 00:51:28,370 --> 00:51:25,710 didn't happen 1145 00:51:30,079 --> 00:51:28,380 I was like trying oh I pretend like it 1146 00:51:32,509 --> 00:51:30,089 didn't happen and then I looked at my 1147 00:51:33,890 --> 00:51:32,519 wife and she started screaming and gone 1148 00:51:37,729 --> 00:51:33,900 what the hell was that 1149 00:51:39,859 --> 00:51:37,739 uh-huh and just yelling at me and that 1150 00:51:42,469 --> 00:51:39,869 was when I was like okay I did see that 1151 00:51:49,400 --> 00:51:42,479 I'm not making that up that just 1152 00:51:52,719 --> 00:51:49,410 happened and we went to the gig and we 1153 00:51:55,400 --> 00:51:52,729 went one of my my other band mates and 1154 00:51:57,799 --> 00:51:55,410 good friend of ours was there and we 1155 00:51:59,599 --> 00:51:57,809 looked at him where we go we think we 1156 00:52:01,339 --> 00:51:59,609 just saw ufr on our way here 1157 00:52:04,700 --> 00:52:01,349 and he just kind of looked at us and 1158 00:52:07,789 --> 00:52:04,710 smiled and gave a little laugh and that 1159 00:52:09,650 --> 00:52:07,799 was it we just didn't talk about it 1160 00:52:13,599 --> 00:52:09,660 after that and we went on of her night 1161 00:52:17,959 --> 00:52:13,609 plates gig had a good time and then 1162 00:52:21,650 --> 00:52:17,969 afterwards got on the internet you know 1163 00:52:25,940 --> 00:52:21,660 to try and I just did a search for you 1164 00:52:31,130 --> 00:52:25,950 know circle drones or spheric miracle 1165 00:52:32,959 --> 00:52:31,140 drones and I found a video of the other 1166 00:52:35,719 --> 00:52:32,969 thing that the Japanese government made 1167 00:52:39,200 --> 00:52:35,729 to sort of drone that they made where it 1168 00:52:41,630 --> 00:52:39,210 was a circle but it was a wire frame 1169 00:52:43,999 --> 00:52:41,640 like you could see the propellers in the 1170 00:52:45,319 --> 00:52:44,009 in the the different like little wings 1171 00:52:47,539 --> 00:52:45,329 and things that help it move around 1172 00:52:51,469 --> 00:52:47,549 inside you could see the inner mechanics 1173 00:52:54,880 --> 00:52:51,479 of it it was not not the same thing as I 1174 00:52:57,829 --> 00:52:54,890 saw there it wasn't solid at all it was 1175 00:53:00,440 --> 00:52:57,839 wide and open it was just like if I 1176 00:53:02,170 --> 00:53:00,450 remember correctly it was just like twos 1177 00:53:06,519 --> 00:53:02,180 like circle 1178 00:53:08,980 --> 00:53:06,529 rims it was an open thing it wasn't 1179 00:53:11,140 --> 00:53:08,990 solid black and I like I said I could 1180 00:53:17,650 --> 00:53:11,150 see the propellers in it and this thing 1181 00:53:20,260 --> 00:53:17,660 moved very very similar to what we saw 1182 00:53:22,569 --> 00:53:20,270 it was the closest representation that I 1183 00:53:25,359 --> 00:53:22,579 could see a tell kind of show someone 1184 00:53:27,970 --> 00:53:25,369 liked what we saw but it wasn't that 1185 00:53:30,010 --> 00:53:27,980 drone there was a little bit you know 1186 00:53:33,309 --> 00:53:30,020 you could tell that this drone still 1187 00:53:34,839 --> 00:53:33,319 like it's it's like helicopter or any 1188 00:53:37,240 --> 00:53:34,849 other kind of propeller type of 1189 00:53:39,789 --> 00:53:37,250 mechanism that has to obey but the laws 1190 00:53:41,650 --> 00:53:39,799 of physics you know like there's little 1191 00:53:43,450 --> 00:53:41,660 Bob's and weaves in the way that it 1192 00:53:45,579 --> 00:53:43,460 moves it can't just go straight up and 1193 00:53:47,650 --> 00:53:45,589 over and down like the thing that I saw 1194 00:53:49,720 --> 00:53:47,660 moved it was moving in straight lines 1195 00:53:54,269 --> 00:53:49,730 direct straight lines there was no kind 1196 00:53:57,720 --> 00:53:54,279 of I don't know how I'll describe it so 1197 00:53:59,920 --> 00:53:57,730 that's the only anything that can find 1198 00:54:04,240 --> 00:53:59,930 remotely close to it and like I said it 1199 00:54:07,269 --> 00:54:04,250 wasn't it um a couple other things that 1200 00:54:11,289 --> 00:54:07,279 happens we we reported it to the police 1201 00:54:14,980 --> 00:54:11,299 we called the police and they got mad at 1202 00:54:18,760 --> 00:54:14,990 us we tried to be completely honest with 1203 00:54:22,089 --> 00:54:18,770 them but they thought we were trying to 1204 00:54:25,660 --> 00:54:22,099 pull a prank on him and they scolded us 1205 00:54:27,309 --> 00:54:25,670 a bit and they said to us sir there are 1206 00:54:28,750 --> 00:54:27,319 things that we do that protect you that 1207 00:54:33,010 --> 00:54:28,760 you don't know about and all this stuff 1208 00:54:37,720 --> 00:54:33,020 and I was kind of like yeah but not this 1209 00:54:42,279 --> 00:54:37,730 and you know that went nowhere I even 1210 00:54:44,440 --> 00:54:42,289 made a report to MUFON and they I don't 1211 00:54:46,620 --> 00:54:44,450 know what I was expecting really to get 1212 00:54:51,760 --> 00:54:46,630 from him they're pretty worthless 1213 00:54:54,160 --> 00:54:51,770 because I I gave a road out of report 1214 00:54:57,800 --> 00:54:54,170 form and I got an investigator guy and I 1215 00:54:59,840 --> 00:54:57,810 told the story just like I told you even 1216 00:55:02,180 --> 00:54:59,850 like in the beginning I said I thought 1217 00:55:03,920 --> 00:55:02,190 it was a black balloon at first until it 1218 00:55:06,020 --> 00:55:03,930 moved this way then obviously it wasn't 1219 00:55:08,150 --> 00:55:06,030 a black bloom and the only response I 1220 00:55:12,800 --> 00:55:08,160 got back from the guy was oh it must 1221 00:55:15,080 --> 00:55:12,810 have been a black balloon so I pretty 1222 00:55:17,240 --> 00:55:15,090 much wrote him back and I I don't think 1223 00:55:19,820 --> 00:55:17,250 I was very nice I tried to be nice but I 1224 00:55:22,360 --> 00:55:19,830 was like listen buddy you're you're 1225 00:55:26,060 --> 00:55:22,370 worthless so just forget about it 1226 00:55:32,890 --> 00:55:26,070 basically you know I feel bad from kind 1227 00:55:36,320 --> 00:55:32,900 of being rude but I was just frustrated 1228 00:55:38,450 --> 00:55:36,330 and that's pretty much it all as I know 1229 00:55:40,520 --> 00:55:38,460 is I witnessed the technology that did 1230 00:55:45,020 --> 00:55:40,530 operate it in a way that it shouldn't 1231 00:55:47,540 --> 00:55:45,030 have operated it's a technology that to 1232 00:55:51,410 --> 00:55:47,550 me from my limited understanding to 1233 00:55:53,030 --> 00:55:51,420 fight the laws of physics well let me 1234 00:55:56,330 --> 00:55:53,040 say it defied our current understanding 1235 00:55:58,340 --> 00:55:56,340 of physics I should say or at least 1236 00:56:03,440 --> 00:55:58,350 there's more to the picture than we know 1237 00:56:05,910 --> 00:56:03,450 obviously and from that point on I had 1238 00:56:08,640 --> 00:56:05,920 to face the fact that 1239 00:56:12,990 --> 00:56:08,650 that there's stuff out there that we 1240 00:56:16,530 --> 00:56:13,000 don't know about that that we call UFO 1241 00:56:20,820 --> 00:56:16,540 their inner sky and they can do things 1242 00:56:22,890 --> 00:56:20,830 that our technology can and I don't know 1243 00:56:25,800 --> 00:56:22,900 that's enough for me too 1244 00:56:28,410 --> 00:56:25,810 you know I don't know who's flying then 1245 00:56:31,560 --> 00:56:28,420 I don't know where it came from 1246 00:56:37,050 --> 00:56:31,570 but it's not hard to extrapolate from 1247 00:56:41,070 --> 00:56:37,060 what I do know for a fact although it's 1248 00:56:44,670 --> 00:56:41,080 not definitive that I will be correct on 1249 00:56:46,740 --> 00:56:44,680 what I think it may or may not be but we 1250 00:56:50,700 --> 00:56:46,750 can I think I can safely say it's pretty 1251 00:56:53,670 --> 00:56:50,710 exotic whatever it is and whoever is 1252 00:56:56,700 --> 00:56:53,680 controlling it and made it it was able 1253 00:57:02,400 --> 00:56:56,710 to do those things it's also probably 1254 00:57:06,600 --> 00:57:02,410 pretty exotic so you know the world just 1255 00:57:12,450 --> 00:57:06,610 became a really strange place so that's 1256 00:57:14,880 --> 00:57:12,460 my experience with the black ball it's 1257 00:57:17,400 --> 00:57:14,890 obvious that this man was shaken up by 1258 00:57:18,960 --> 00:57:17,410 this and I thank him and the many others 1259 00:57:20,760 --> 00:57:18,970 who have come forward and felt 1260 00:57:23,430 --> 00:57:20,770 comfortable enough sharing their 1261

1395 01:03:00,730 --> 01:02:58,130 anyway and one of the first things I 1396 01:03:03,640 --> 01:03:00,740 opened up in the JFK files there's a 1397 01:03:05,620 --> 01:03:03,650 letter from mental to Kennedy 1398 01:03:07,240 --> 01:03:05,630 dear jack turns out they knew each other 1399 01:03:10,120 --> 01:03:07,250 quite well even had breakfast together 1400 01:03:13,210 --> 01:03:10,130 on occasion both living in the Cambridge 1401 01:03:15,580 --> 01:03:13,220 area and there's one area this is after 1402 01:03:17,770 --> 01:03:15,590 the election of 1960 when Kennedy was 1403 01:03:20,230 --> 01:03:17,780 elected president there's one where I 1404 01:03:23,080 --> 01:03:20,240 may be of assistance to you it's with 1405 01:03:25,990 --> 01:03:23,090 regard to the National Security Agency 1406 01:03:29,080 --> 01:03:26,000 have had a longer continuous association 1407 01:03:31,180 --> 01:03:29,090 with them 30 years of anybody when we 1408 01:03:33,340 --> 01:03:31,190 are properly cleared to each other this 1409 01:03:34,720 --> 01:03:33,350 is telling the president we're probably 1410 01:03:38,020 --> 01:03:34,730 clear to me each other I can tell you 1411 01:03:40,060 --> 01:03:38,030 more about this so I did a lot it turns 1412 01:03:42,670 --> 01:03:40,070 out he was a world-class cryptologist 1413 01:03:45,250 --> 01:03:42,680 nobody knew that he did all kinds of 1414 01:03:47,410 --> 01:03:45,260 classified work and I was the first to 1415 01:03:49,210 --> 01:03:47,420 take note of that and so suddenly it 1416 01:03:51,070 --> 01:03:49,220 made sense that he was part of this 1417 01:03:52,330 --> 01:03:51,080 group but it was such a shock and there 1418 01:03:54,040 --> 01:03:52,340 were people say oh he couldn't lead a 1419 01:03:55,060 --> 01:03:54,050 double life I wrote a paper the double 1420 01:03:58,060 --> 01:03:55,070 life of Donald Menzel 1421 01:04:00,070 --> 01:03:58,070 lots of people who led double life think 1422 01:04:01,840 --> 01:04:00,080 of Burgess filming and McQueen and 1423 01:04:06,580 --> 01:04:01,850 Russian spies work for British 1424 01:04:09,430 --> 01:04:06,590 intelligence like 15 years yeah and 1425 01:04:13,060 --> 01:04:09,440 you've got to be very careful when 1426 01:04:15,250 --> 01:04:13,070 you're a spy that you don't reveal you 1427 01:04:18,460 --> 01:04:15,260 know you're having access to information 1428 01:04:20,740 --> 01:04:18,470 you shouldn't have accessed but once I 1429 01:04:23,440 --> 01:04:20,750 found Menzel and then saw the connection 1430 01:04:25,720 --> 01:04:23,450 with the other people I was able to show 1431 01:04:28,080 --> 01:04:25,730 what it made absolute sense and the post 1432 01:04:30,880 --> 01:04:28,090 three documents and class paying me 1433 01:04:33,550 --> 01:04:30,890 $1,000 didn't heard any in terms of the 1434 01:04:36,130 --> 01:04:33,560 overall picture and so I think I've 1435 01:04:37,720 --> 01:04:36,140 dealt with all the arguments but the 1436 01:04:41,109 --> 01:04:37,730 people say the documents are fraudulent 1437 01:04:44,230 --> 01:04:41,119 yes I showed that a number of documents 1438 01:04:46,540 --> 01:04:44,240 are fraudulent so what I'm not denying 1439 01:04:47,720 --> 01:04:46,550 that it be natural if some good stuff 1440 01:04:50,770 --> 01:04:47,730 gets out you flood 1441 01:04:54,290 --> 01:04:50,780 market with crap and I hope and rubs off 1442 01:04:56,510 --> 01:04:54,300 that interview was a true honor and if 1443 01:04:58,609 --> 01:04:56,520 Stanton Friedman is done lecturing he 1444 01:05:00,740 --> 01:04:58,619 most definitely is not done searching 1445 01:05:02,990 --> 01:05:00,750 for answers somewhere in the skies and 1446 01:05:06,830 --> 01:05:03,000 I'm wishing him all the very best on 1447 01:05:09,830 --> 01:05:06,840 that continued journey alright so for 1448 01:05:12,590 --> 01:05:09,840 this next one I and my guest let loose 1449

where I bring on UFO 1452 01:05:25,640 --> 01:05:21,630 researchers buried guests and other 1453 01:05:29,000 --> 01:05:25,650 podcasters and I'd get them drunk and we 1454 01:05:32,120 -->

01:05:39,109 --> 01:05:37,140 recount one of his all-time favorite UFO 1458 01:05:42,710 --> 01:05:39,119 cases that involved a close encounter 1459 01:05:48,200 --> 01:05:42,720 with aliens and their breakfast baking 1460 01:05:49,640 --> 01:05:48,210 abilities pancake aliens oh man like you 1461 01:05:52,940 --> 01:05:49,650 know I don't I don't like to prejudge 1462 01:05:57,290 --> 01:05:52,950

old 1468 01:06:14,720 --> 01:06:13,020 chicken farmer sitting down to brunch at 1469 01:06:17,630 --> 01:06:14,730 11 o'clock in the morning hears this 1470 01:06:20,950 --> 01:06:17,640 sound and he goes outside he sees this 1471 01:06:25,130 --> 01:06:20,960 yeah this it would probably be like 1472 01:06:28,430 --> 01:06:25,140 saucer - he described the UFO as - 1473 01:06:30,560 --> 01:06:28,440 saucers connected by a depression ring 1474 01:06:32,690 --> 01:06:30,570 that had like these six-inch diameter 1475 01:06:36,020 --> 01:06:32,700 pipes that were going all around it and 1476 01:06:38,450 --> 01:06:36,030 this hatch opens and he sees what he 1477 01:06:41,240 --> 01:06:38,460 describes as three five-foot 1478 01:06:43,670 --> 01:06:41,250 italian-looking aliens with mesmerizing 1479 01:06:46,130 --> 01:06:43,680 eyes wearing onesies and they want water 1480 01:06:47,810 --> 01:06:46,140 so I'd trade some water for some of what 1481 01:06:50,300 --> 01:06:47,820 he calls pancakes even though I would 1482 01:06:52,340 --> 01:06:50,310 call them cookies and he gave me the 1483 01:06:53,290 --> 01:06:52,350 back of his hand the gesture thanks I 1484 01:06:56,290

01:07:01,550 man same size of a man right beside the 1488 01:07:06,040 --> 01:07:03,290 right side of the hatchway cooking you 1489 01:07:08,530 --> 01:07:06,050 know cooking these pancakes which I have 1490 01:07:13,690 --> 01:07:08,540 one year yet he worked he was trying 1491 01:07:15,700 --> 01:07:13,700 these these pancakes and I pointed to 1492 01:07:18,010 --> 01:07:15,710 him and made a gesture like eating I 1493 01:07:23,230 --> 01:07:18,020 thought maybe I get a conversation out 1494 01:07:25,060 --> 01:07:23,240 of nobody was saying anything but he he 1495 01:07:26,859 -->

01:09:42,130 Jason McClellan of rogue planet and MJ 1548 01:09:45,480 --> 01:09:42,670 binaya 1549 01:09:47,670 --> 01:09:45,490 of tariffs Keira and we talked about the 1550 01:09:50,430 --> 01:09:47,680 endeavors currently being undertaken by 1551 01:09:53,810 --> 01:09:50,440 to the Stars Academy in collecting and 1552 01:09:57,390 --> 01:09:53,820 analyzing possible UFO or alien 1553 01:09:59,820 --> 01:09:57,400 materials known as the atom project 1554 01:10:02,610 --> 01:09:59,830 these materials will undergo rigorous 1555 01:10:06,690 --> 01:10:02,620 analysis to determine its composition 1556 01:10:09,930 --> 01:10:06,700 and possible origins but will we as a 1557 01:10:12,330 --> 01:10:09,940 public be privy to what they find and if 1558 01:10:15,510 --> 01:10:12,340 they do determine that these materials 1559 01:10:18,510 --> 01:10:15,520 are from off-planet what comes next 1560 01:10:21,540 --> 01:10:18,520 Jason and MJ have very different 1561 01:10:24,750 --> 01:10:21,550 opinions on that what happens when you 1562 01:10:27,090 --> 01:10:24,760 have your test results right if even if 1563 01:10:29,100 --> 01:10:27,100 your test results say wow we've never 1564 01:10:31,290 --> 01:10:29,110 seen anything like this this looks like 1565 01:10:33,330 --> 01:10:31,300 it was manufactured opera that's the 1566 01:10:35,010 --> 01:10:33,340 most likely explanation it's still not 1567 01:10:37,200 --> 01:10:35,020 concrete proof right it needs to be 1568 01:10:38,490 --> 01:10:37,210 tested and tested again and tested again 1569 01:10:40,170 --> 01:10:38,500 by multiple labs go through the 1570 01:10:42,120 --> 01:10:40,180 scientific process like MJ said at the 1571 01:10:45,270 --> 01:10:42,130 beginning you know it's a very rigorous 1572 01:10:46,470 --> 01:10:45,280 process for mainstream science let alone 1573 01:10:49,410 --> 01:10:46,480 talking about things that could 1574 01:10:51,480 --> 01:10:49,420 potentially be from a UFO so that makes 1575 01:10:53,790 --> 01:10:51,490 it even more difficult and really ups 1576 01:10:55,470 --> 01:10:53,800 the responsibility the burden of proof 1577 01:10:58,920 --> 01:10:55,480 on the people doing the testing in this 1578 01:11:02,160 --> 01:10:58,930 case but even if we accept their results 1579 01:11:05,250 --> 01:11:02,170 and say wow this thing is probably from 1580 01:11:07,770 --> 01:11:05,260 a UFO what does that do what does that 1581 01:11:10,080 --> 01:11:07,780 do for it for the world for us for the 1582 01:11:14,070 --> 01:11:10,090 for the UFO research community what does 1583 01:11:19,050 --> 01:11:14,080 that do my opinion is nothing not a 1584 01:11:20,910 --> 01:11:19,060 thing it sucks but you know for us in 1585 01:11:23,790 --> 01:11:20,920 this and for the people who are excited 1586 01:11:25,290 --> 01:11:23,800 about it I'm a UFO fan you know I want 1587 01:11:27,630 --> 01:11:25,300 those results I want to hear that 1588 01:11:29,160 --> 01:11:27,640 announcement it'll be super exciting for 1589 01:11:31,620 --> 01:11:29,170 me and I'll go that's cool 1590 01:11:33,630 --> 01:11:31,630 but I can't really do anything else with 1591 01:11:35,430 --> 01:11:33,640 it I'll follow it file it away in my 1592 01:11:38,520 --> 01:11:35,440 brain and say okay this is another 1593 01:11:41,729 --> 01:11:38,530 element I have to work with in forming 1594 01:11:44,160 --> 01:11:41,739 my own opinions but that's really all it 1595 01:11:46,020 --> 01:11:44,170 does it might stir some headlines for a 1596 01:11:49,229 --> 01:11:46,030 couple weeks like we saw with the 1597 01:11:52,530 --> 01:11:49,239 Pentagon UFO program but people are 1598 01:11:54,060 --> 01:11:52,540 gonna move on even if the results you 1599 01:11:56,660 --> 01:11:54,070 know go to go to a couple different labs 1600 01:11:58,830 --> 01:11:56,670 and say this is from an alien spacecraft 1601 01:12:00,750 --> 01:11:58,840 that news is still going to fade in a 1602 01:12:05,250 --> 01:12:00,760 couple weeks so is it going to change 1603 01:12:05,729 --> 01:12:05,260 the course of UFO research I don't think 1604 01:12:12,330 --> 01:12:05,739 so 1605 01:12:15,000 --> 01:12:12,340 say it's not gonna do anything on the 1606 01:12:17,490 --> 01:12:15,010 other hand I'm all for it I'm all behind 1607 01:12:20,160 --> 01:12:17,500 it 100% and I'm so excited 1608 01:12:22,979 --> 01:12:20,170 that somebody's willing to pony up that 1609 01:12:25,680 --> 01:12:22,989 money and do research like this because 1610 01:12:27,689 --> 01:12:25,690 I do think it's incredibly important but 1611 01:12:29,400 --> 01:12:27,699 all that while also saying it's not 1612 01:12:30,870 --> 01:12:29,410 really gonna do anything I'm gonna jump 1613 01:12:32,100 --> 01:12:30,880 in here I'll jump in here cuz I I don't 1614 01:12:35,070 --> 01:12:32,110 actually disagree so we're gonna have 1615 01:12:39,209 --> 01:12:35,080 our first debate of the night boys okay 1616 01:12:41,000 --> 01:12:39,219 so if let's say okay so in it I clarify 1617 01:12:44,640 --> 01:12:41,010 here Jason are you saying that if 1618 01:12:47,100 --> 01:12:44,650 multiple labs confirm the data and an 1619 01:12:49,110 --> 01:12:47,110 academic peer-reviewed paper is written 1620 01:12:50,310 --> 01:12:49,120 and published like we're talking about 1621 01:12:51,419 --> 01:12:50,320 I mean we're gonna but this can happen 1622 01:12:54,000 --> 01:12:51,429 tomorrow we're talking about this is 1623 01:12:55,890 --> 01:12:54,010 potentially like five to ten years 1624 01:12:57,630 --> 01:12:55,900 before this all happens because like 1625 01:12:59,390 --> 01:12:57,640 testing takes time and then writing the 1626 01:13:01,590 --> 01:12:59,400 paper and confirming your data so 1627 01:13:03,870 --> 01:13:01,600 assuming that happens and academic 1628 01:13:05,729 --> 01:13:03,880 papers written and it comes out yeah we 1629 01:13:08,970 --> 01:13:05,739 have a piece of material that is not 1630 01:13:11,790 --> 01:13:08,980 from this world and it is otherworldly 1631 01:13:13,919 --> 01:13:11,800 confirmed you're suggesting that that 1632 01:13:16,830 --> 01:13:13,929 would not change anything and you in 1633 01:13:19,050 --> 01:13:16,840 like the study of UFOs we have we have 1634 01:13:21,750 --> 01:13:19,060 mainstream scientists who have published 1635 01:13:24,120 --> 01:13:21,760 peer review papers confirming the 1636 01:13:26,220 --> 01:13:24,130 discovery of extraterrestrial life that 1637 01:13:28,530 --> 01:13:26,230 and that's mainstream science and they 1638 01:13:31,169 --> 01:13:28,540 get shot down that stuff barely makes 1639 01:13:32,580 --> 01:13:31,179 the news and people move on I mean now 1640 01:13:34,020 --> 01:13:32,590 we're talking about UFOs so it's even 1641 01:13:34,680 --> 01:13:34,030 harder what do you mean you is right 1642 01:13:36,540 --> 01:13:34,690 there's pure 1643 01:13:38,459 --> 01:13:36,550 you papers where scientists have come 1644 01:13:40,740 --> 01:13:38,469 out and said it has microbial 1645 01:13:45,360 --> 01:13:40,750 extraterrestrial life many times over in 1646 01:13:48,750 --> 01:13:45,370 many different or shares that is that is 1647 01:13:51,900 --> 01:13:48,760 fully refuted by plenty of scientists it 1648 01:13:54,120 --> 01:13:51,910 barely makes the news and then we move 1649 01:13:56,850 --> 01:13:54,130 on I think ultimately the what what 1650 01:13:58,950 --> 01:13:56,860 ultimately happens though is is the ball 1651 01:14:01,110 --> 01:13:58,960 rolls forward a little bit I mean how 1652 01:14:04,320 --> 01:14:01,120 many I'm sure as a result of those 1653 01:14:06,720 --> 01:14:04,330 papers most astrophysicists now and most 1654 01:14:10,350 --> 01:14:06,730 astronomers now most scientists now 1655 01:14:13,170 --> 01:14:10,360 believe or at least would argue that 1656 01:14:15,660 --> 01:14:13,180 life exists elsewhere in the cosmos sure 1657 01:14:18,120 --> 01:14:15,670 right where maybe a hundred years ago or 1658 01:14:20,610 --> 01:14:18,130 fifty years ago that would have been 1659 01:14:23,250 --> 01:14:20,620 viewed as maybe taboo or somewhat 1660 01:14:26,610 --> 01:14:23,260 heretical to the dogma of science but 1661 01:14:28,920 --> 01:14:26,620 now most people believe yeah there's 1662 01:14:30,660 --> 01:14:28,930 probably extraterrestrial life somewhere 1663 01:14:32,310 --> 01:14:30,670 out there whether it's coming here is 1664 01:14:35,790 --> 01:14:32,320 debatable right it's somewhere out there 1665 01:14:39,150 --> 01:14:35,800 if suddenly a material shows up that 1666 01:14:40,500 --> 01:14:39,160 enters the academic world as being ya 1667 01:14:42,660 --> 01:14:40,510 know it's been confirmed by multiple 1668 01:14:45,510 --> 01:14:42,670 labs and and articles been written and 1669 01:14:47,910 --> 01:14:45,520 and it is I would argue that mainstream 1670 01:14:49,920 --> 01:14:47,920 academia what now potentially at least 1671 01:14:52,320 --> 01:14:49,930 certain people within mainstream 1672 01:14:54,150 --> 01:14:52,330 academia would start to start studying 1673 01:14:55,590 --> 01:14:54,160 the phenomena is being like okay well 1674 01:14:58,140 --> 01:14:55,600 maybe something is actually happening 1675 01:14:59,820 --> 01:14:58,150 since there is something here right we 1676 01:15:01,290 --> 01:14:59,830 have a tangible piece of we have 1677 01:15:04,080 --> 01:15:01,300 tangible object we can actually study 1678 01:15:06,450 --> 01:15:04,090 now this was one of the best 1679 01:15:08,459 --> 01:15:06,460 conversations I had on the show about 1680 01:15:10,650 --> 01:15:08,469 the latest outer inspected the Stars 1681 01:15:13,650 --> 01:15:10,660 Academy and I know our talks about Tom 1682 01:15:16,350 --> 01:15:13,660 DeLonge company have only begun the 1683 01:15:19,260 --> 01:15:16,360 coming year promises a lot of updates 1684 01:15:21,959 --> 01:15:19,270 discoveries and projects by to the stars 1685 01:15:24,689 --> 01:15:21,969 so stay tuned for all of that as the 1686 01:15:26,850 --> 01:15:24,699 year progresses also as the year 1687 01:15:30,390 --> 01:15:26,860 progresses I am looking forward to what 1688 01:15:33,540 --> 01:15:30,400 my guests on episode 75 is trying to 1689 01:15:34,890 --> 01:15:33,550 achieve that guess was UFO investigator 1690 01:15:37,020 --> 01:15:34,900 chase clusky 1691 01:15:39,390 --> 01:15:37,030 after hearing about her extensive 1692 01:15:41,580 --> 01:15:39,400 careers with Homeland Security and the 1693 01:15:43,360 --> 01:15:41,590 Department of Defense I was excited to 1694 01:15:45,490 --> 01:15:43,370 hear from a woman who inked 1695 01:15:47,950 --> 01:15:45,500 her many skills into her UFO 1696 01:15:50,850 --> 01:15:47,960 investigative work and even cooler 1697 01:15:54,640 --> 01:15:50,860 she was now taking UFOs to the hill 1698 01:15:58,510 --> 01:15:54,650 filing as one of the first UFO lobbyists 1699 01:16:01,660 --> 01:15:58,520 in Washington DC in 2016 you became a 1700 01:16:03,640 --> 01:16:01,670 lobbyist for the UFO field you are 1701 01:16:05,890 --> 01:16:03,650 fighting the fight for us down in DC 1702 01:16:07,330 --> 01:16:05,900 chase so what what made you want to do 1703 01:16:09,820 --> 01:16:07,340 this what it what did you hope to 1704 01:16:12,370 --> 01:16:09,830 achieve in becoming a UFO lobbyist this 1705 01:16:14,410 --> 01:16:12,380 is awesome yeah it was it was really 1706 01:16:17,650 --> 01:16:14,420 Steve Bassett and you know being a 1707 01:16:20,920 --> 01:16:17,660 witness to an extraordinary event that 1708 01:16:22,840 --> 01:16:20,930 produced a lot of forward movement for 1709 01:16:25,570 --> 01:16:22,850 us as ufologists and that was the 1710 01:16:27,580 --> 01:16:25,580 citizens hearing for disclosure and you 1711 01:16:30,310 --> 01:16:27,590 know I know they were former Congress 1712 01:16:31,900 --> 01:16:30,320 and Senators and if anybody knows how DC 1713 01:16:34,180 --> 01:16:31,910 works they probably have more political 1714 01:16:38,710 --> 01:16:34,190 clout to call the president than the 1715 01:16:40,180 --> 01:16:38,720 seeded ones right now but right but you 1716 01:16:42,310 --> 01:16:40,190 know I watched them come in on a Monday 1717 01:16:45,700 --> 01:16:42,320 and they were being polite and they were 1718 01:16:47,380 --> 01:16:45,710 listening by Wednesday we had half of 1719 01:16:50,200 --> 01:16:47,390 them standing up saying we need those 1720 01:16:52,000 --> 01:16:50,210 files open so what I realized is when 1721 01:16:54,490 --> 01:16:52,010 you approach these people who have no 1722 01:16:56,860 --> 01:16:54,500 idea no idea of what's going on they're 1723 01:16:59,560 --> 01:16:56,870 not being read in the secret keepers are 1724 01:17:02,440 --> 01:16:59,570 not these guys sitting in the house or 1725 01:17:04,900 --> 01:17:02,450 the Senate with the right language 1726 01:17:07,900 --> 01:17:04,910 we can't educate them and they get it I 1727 01:17:10,590 --> 01:17:07,910 saw at the citizens hearing so when we 1728 01:17:12,970 --> 01:17:10,600 kind of thought what are we not doing as 1729 01:17:14,980 --> 01:17:12,980 ufologists in this field well we're 1730 01:17:17,500 --> 01:17:14,990 really not including the scientist and 1731 01:17:20,380 --> 01:17:17,510 the lawmakers could have been brutal to 1732 01:17:22,930 --> 01:17:20,390 us in the past and you know not being 1733 01:17:26,920 --> 01:17:22,940 afraid to have a door shut my face I've 1734 01:17:29,320 --> 01:17:26,930 really elicit both and I use science a 1735 01:17:33,010 --> 01:17:29,330 lot of scientists to test a lot of labs 1736 01:17:35,230 --> 01:17:33,020 because I won't use UFO labs because you 1737 01:17:36,820 --> 01:17:35,240 know it's like the prosecution trying to 1738 01:17:39,700 --> 01:17:36,830 prove the case with only their witnesses 1739 01:17:41,590 --> 01:17:39,710 okay so you know I use very independent 1740 01:17:44,770 --> 01:17:41,600 labs a scientists and I've learned as 1741 01:17:47,380 --> 01:17:44,780 long as I'm not saying hey I think this 1742 01:17:49,660 --> 01:17:47,390 metals from a mothership yeah it's like 1743 01:17:51,250 --> 01:17:49,670 hey I got some metal you test metal can 1744 01:17:53,020 --> 01:17:51,260 I send you this metal how much is that 1745 01:17:56,450 --> 01:17:53,030 going to cost and we're good to go 1746 01:17:58,820 --> 01:17:56,460 and and I'm getting really noted 1747 01:18:00,620 --> 01:17:58,830 laughs and and some of the guys that 1748 01:18:03,500 --> 01:18:00,630 I've even had examined our stuff are up 1749 01:18:05,570 --> 01:18:03,510 from four Nobel Peace Prize so yeah and 1750 01:18:07,400 --> 01:18:05,580 knowing that okay well we walked through 1751 01:18:09,080 --> 01:18:07,410 that door what's the next one 1752 01:18:10,580 --> 01:18:09,090 so I kind of thought we have to get our 1753 01:18:12,229 --> 01:18:10,590 lawmakers because we're never going to 1754 01:18:14,360 --> 01:18:12,239 get anything Declassified we're never 1755 01:18:17,120 --> 01:18:14,370 going to change anything with the secret 1756 01:18:19,670 --> 01:18:17,130 keepers or to have any transparency if 1757 01:18:22,729 --> 01:18:19,680 we don't start including the very people 1758 01:18:24,590 --> 01:18:22,739 that can do it I am really looking 1759 01:18:26,810 --> 01:18:24,600 forward to hearing from chase again in 1760 01:18:29,690 --> 01:18:26,820 the near future and updating everyone on 1761 01:18:33,260 --> 01:18:29,700 how her meeting with Congress went but 1762 01:18:36,650 --> 01:18:33,270 for now we're moving to episode 83 live 1763 01:18:39,080

1766 01:18:47,540 --> 01:18:43,969 on many different panels it was insane 1767 01:18:49,310 --> 01:18:47,550 when I wasn't too busy I was able to get 1768 01:18:52,310 --> 01:18:49,320 some brief interviews with both 1769 01:18:54,290 --> 01:18:52,320 attendees and other presenters and one 1770 01:18:57,320 --> 01:18:54,300 of my favorites from that weekend was 1771 01:19:00,650 -->

01:19:25,680 different talks one on the history of 1783 01:19:29,840 --> 01:19:28,080 Egypt one on mummy so could you tell us 1784 01:19:31,280 --> 01:19:29,850 a little bit about both of those for the 1785 01:19:33,680 --> 01:19:31,290 people who aren't going to make it here 1786 01:19:35,510 --> 01:19:33,690 well the first one is not just about the 1787 01:19:39,459 --> 01:19:35,520 history of Egypt it's about the biased 1788 01:19:41,630 --> 01:19:39,469 history of Egypt I am obsessed with 1789 01:19:44,660 --> 01:19:41,640 archaeology and Egyptology but in a 1790 01:19:47,320 --> 01:19:44,670 different way I am obsessed with the 1791 01:19:50,360 --> 01:19:47,330 unexplained I've studied all my live 1792 01:19:53,270 --> 01:19:50,370 explanations that could make sense to 1793 01:19:55,160 --> 01:19:53,280 big world mysteries in ancient Egypt and 1794 01:19:56,900 --> 01:19:55,170 the problem is that it's the 1795 01:20:00,110 --> 01:19:56,910 explanations that everyone comes 1796 01:20:03,110 --> 01:20:00,120 together and agrees on with no facts and 1797 01:20:05,870 --> 01:20:03,120 that's the problem for me the 1798 01:20:08,750 --> 01:20:05,880 unexplained is what matters most and I 1799 01:20:09,590 --> 01:20:08,760 think it's a group effort by everyone 1800 01:20:11,270 --> 01:20:09,600 that listens 1801 01:20:13,550 --> 01:20:11,280 by everyone that looks into it because 1802 01:20:16,250 --> 01:20:13,560 everyone comes up with their own theory 1803 01:20:20,540 --> 01:20:16,260 and one of them could be correct but the 1804 01:20:22,760 --> 01:20:20,550 unexplained is my passion and ancient 1805 01:20:24,680 --> 01:20:22,770 Egypt has a lot of unexplained history 1806 01:20:26,750 --> 01:20:24,690 we have so much we have so much 1807 01:20:29,120 --> 01:20:26,760 archaeology from each agent that we have 1808 01:20:32,690 --> 01:20:29,130 found but even though that's the case 1809 01:20:36,020 --> 01:20:32,700 it's only 10% of ancient Egypt 1810 01:20:40,100 --> 01:20:36,030 90% of ancient Egypt is still under the 1811 01:20:43,820 --> 01:20:40,110 sands of Egypt so having a lot of 1812 01:20:46,340 --> 01:20:43,830 mysteries still unexplained is the 1813 01:20:48,710 --> 01:20:46,350 reason I do this and it's fine if it's 1814 01:20:50,960 --> 01:20:48,720 unexplained 90% of ancient Egypt has not 1815 01:20:53,810 --> 01:20:50,970 been found it's fine if it's unexplained 1816 01:20:55,850 --> 01:20:53,820 and that's what I do I love them and a 1817 01:20:57,590 --> 01:20:55,860 lot of the misconceptions with the whole 1818 01:21:00,080 --> 01:20:57,600 ancient alien theory as well is I 1819 01:21:01,700 --> 01:21:00,090 remember someone asks you this with when 1820 01:21:05,120 --> 01:21:01,710 you have like one minute left to answer 1821 01:21:08,200 --> 01:21:05,130 at a Q&A did aliens build the pyramids 1822 01:21:10,370 --> 01:21:08,210 in Egypt and I loved your answer it was 1823 01:21:12,860 --> 01:21:10,380 you're gonna ask me that what I have one 1824 01:21:14,660 --> 01:21:12,870 minute left it's a huge contention and a 1825 01:21:16,940 --> 01:21:14,670 misconception that ancient aliens is 1826 01:21:19,130 --> 01:21:16,950 just about aliens came here and they 1827 01:21:21,980 --> 01:21:19,140 built all of these amazing things that 1828 01:21:24,290 --> 01:21:21,990 cultures get no credit for so I have to 1829 01:21:27,590 --> 01:21:24,300 ask you what do you make of all these 1830 01:21:29,540 --> 01:21:27,600 these these ideas and your role that you 1831 01:21:32,060 --> 01:21:29,550 play in bringing that to the ancient 1832 01:21:32,840 --> 01:21:32,070 aliens theory to that audience what do 1833 01:21:35,240 --> 01:21:32,850 you make of all that 1834 01:21:38,030 --> 01:21:35,250 it's the biggest criticism I have as an 1835 01:21:40,820 --> 01:21:38,040 apologist from the scientific world just 1836 01:21:44,090 --> 01:21:40,830 the fact that I appear on ancient aliens 1837 01:21:46,670 --> 01:21:44,100 and the problem with that is that I 1838 01:21:49,910 --> 01:21:46,680 think the scientific world is just as 1839 01:21:51,680 --> 01:21:49,920 ignorant about what they criticize as 1840 01:21:53,690 --> 01:21:51,690 the rest of the world is they probably 1841 01:21:55,730 --> 01:21:53,700 have never watched ancient aliens and 1842 01:21:57,590 --> 01:21:55,740 just by looking at the title they 1843 01:22:00,470 --> 01:21:57,600 probably think ancient aliens is all 1844 01:22:02,840 --> 01:22:00,480 about green people coming to the earth 1845 01:22:05,150 --> 01:22:02,850 coming to earth hundreds of thousands 1846 01:22:08,150 --> 01:22:05,160 years ago and building structures with 1847 01:22:12,680 --> 01:22:08,160 technology for us and that is not the 1848 01:22:15,140 --> 01:22:12,690 case ancient aliens is literally a place 1849 01:22:18,410 --> 01:22:15,150 where people ask questions and have 1850 01:22:19,280 --> 01:22:18,420 unexplained theories and ancient aliens 1851 01:22:22,700 --> 01:22:19,290 can 1852 01:22:26,030 --> 01:22:22,710 and deceiving but the ancient Egyptian 1853 01:22:29,990 --> 01:22:26,040 mythology with the gods and every job of 1854 01:22:33,830 --> 01:22:30,000 every God just the gods of ancient Egypt 1855 01:22:37,130 --> 01:22:33,840 is that the definition of ancient aliens 1856 01:22:40,460 --> 01:22:37,140 an alien is a being that doesn't come 1857 01:22:43,520 --> 01:22:40,470 from this earth whatever it is and if 1858 01:22:45,830 --> 01:22:43,530 people believe in gods of ancient Egypt 1859 01:22:47,420 --> 01:22:45,840 what is a God a God is a being that 1860 01:22:49,490 --> 01:22:47,430 doesn't come from this earth so that is 1861 01:22:52,240 --> 01:22:49,500 technically an alien but just saying 1862 01:22:54,950 --> 01:22:52,250 ancient aliens sounds so bad when 1863 01:22:57,200 --> 01:22:54,960 scientifically and theoretically when 1864 01:22:59,260 --> 01:22:57,210 you think about it ancient Egyptian 1865 01:23:01,220 --> 01:22:59,270 mythology is full of ancient aliens 1866 01:23:03,230 --> 01:23:01,230 that's a really good point 1867 01:23:05,090 --> 01:23:03,240 do your research look into the history 1868 01:23:06,680 --> 01:23:05,100 of the place and then come to those 1869 01:23:08,660 --> 01:23:06,690 conclusions I love that I love them so 1870 01:23:11,000 --> 01:23:08,670 your next talk is going to be about 1871 01:23:13,850 --> 01:23:11,010 mummies can you give us a little cap on 1872 01:23:16,010 --> 01:23:13,860 what that's gonna be about my next off 1873 01:23:17,390 --> 01:23:16,020 is going to be about mummies not just 1874 01:23:19,310 --> 01:23:17,400 because I'm obsessed with my I have a 1875 01:23:23,780 --> 01:23:19,320 mummy fetish maybe I shouldn't be saying 1876 01:23:30,560 --> 01:23:23,790 that but it's an exclusive but mummies 1877 01:23:34,340 --> 01:23:30,570 are the one thing we actually have from 1878 01:23:36,740 --> 01:23:34,350 ancient Egypt that is real everything 1879 01:23:39,560 --> 01:23:36,750 else it could be anything but the 1880 01:23:42,350 --> 01:23:39,570 mummies is the bodies of these ancient 1881 01:23:45,290 --> 01:23:42,360 Egyptians and sometimes we don't realize 1882 01:23:47,870 --> 01:23:45,300 that mummy is a scary thing in a movie 1883 01:23:49,820 --> 01:23:47,880 but those mummies are human bodies those 1884 01:23:51,620 --> 01:23:49,830 mummies are dead people that are still 1885 01:23:53,900 --> 01:23:51,630 here a thousand years later those 1886 01:23:57,020 --> 01:23:53,910 mummies are literally a time capsule 1887 01:23:58,880 --> 01:23:57,030 that can tell us so much about the 1888 01:24:05,060 --> 01:23:58,890 history of our ancestors when the 1889 01:24:10,490 --> 01:24:05,070 technologies right and keep watching for 1890 01:24:15,110 --> 01:24:10,500 me on TV for some announcement coming up 1891 01:24:17,150 --> 01:24:15,120 and it mummies is the hint you've heard 1892 01:24:19,340 --> 01:24:17,160 it first here guys all right so we're 1893 01:24:21,740 --> 01:24:19,350 gonna cap this off with you recently 1894 01:24:23,660 --> 01:24:21,750 came out with a book I was so excited 1895 01:24:25,160 --> 01:24:23,670 when I saw this coming out conspired can 1896 01:24:26,750 --> 01:24:25,170 you tell us a little bit about this 1897 01:24:30,350 --> 01:24:26,760 where we can find it and what to expect 1898 01:24:33,240 --> 01:24:30,360 from it conspired is a book that is also 1899 01:24:36,030 --> 01:24:33,250 about an unexplained mystery that 1900 01:24:37,680 --> 01:24:36,040 strikes me as an archaeologist I went 1901 01:24:39,870 --> 01:24:37,690 inside a tomb in ancient Egypt that no 1902 01:24:41,940 --> 01:24:39,880 one is allowed into it's called cave e55 1903 01:24:44,520 --> 01:24:41,950 and when I went inside I was unlike any 1904 01:24:45,960 --> 01:24:44,530 other tomb bare walls no drawings all 1905 01:24:48,480 --> 01:24:45,970 the way inside there's a sarcophagus 1906 01:24:51,390 --> 01:24:48,490 with a mummy and around the mummy there 1907 01:24:53,550 --> 01:24:51,400 is their magical blocks those magical 1908 01:24:54,780 --> 01:24:53,560 blocks exist in every tomb they are the 1909 01:24:56,610 --> 01:24:54,790 ones that protect the mummy from the 1910 01:24:57,750 --> 01:24:56,620 outer world because that's where people 1911 01:24:59,370 --> 01:24:57,760 think the mummy curse 1912 01:25:00,900 --> 01:24:59,380 they have inscriptions on them that says 1913 01:25:04,080 --> 01:25:00,910 anyone that comes close to this mummy 1914 01:25:06,630 --> 01:25:04,090 will be choked to death but in that tomb 1915 01:25:10,200 --> 01:25:06,640 specifically those magical blocks were 1916 01:25:13,470 --> 01:25:10,210 turned inwards instead of outwards which 1917 01:25:15,210 --> 01:25:13,480 tells you that whoever did this wanted 1918 01:25:17,100 --> 01:25:15,220 to not protect this mummy from the outer 1919 01:25:19,710 --> 01:25:17,110 world but to protect the outer world 1920 01:25:20,190 --> 01:25:19,720 from this mummy on the way out of the 1921 01:25:21,900 --> 01:25:20,200 tomb 1922 01:25:23,910 --> 01:25:21,910 there were inscriptions on the wall by 1923 01:25:26,730 --> 01:25:23,920 ancient Egyptian priests language the 1924 01:25:29,730 --> 01:25:26,740 heretics and it says the evil one shall 1925 01:25:32,340 --> 01:25:29,740 not live again that took me on a journey 1926 01:25:34,500 --> 01:25:32,350 to try to solve this mystery and find 1927 01:25:37,080 --> 01:25:34,510 the unexplained who could this be and 1928 01:25:39,510 --> 01:25:37,090 why did they treat him so bad what could 1929 01:25:41,910 --> 01:25:39,520 he have done and that's the book how 1930 01:25:45,450 --> 01:25:41,920 where can we find you can find the alien 1931 01:25:50,730 --> 01:25:45,460 Contour or amazon.com thank you so much 1932 01:25:53,220 --> 01:25:50,740 for joining me today I can't wait to see 1933 01:25:55,980 --> 01:25:53,230 this new TV project Rami is working on 1934 01:25:59,010 --> 01:25:55,990 if it's God mummys Amen it's all saying 1935 01:26:01,140 --> 01:25:59,020 and our next guest was all in when it 1936 01:26:04,650 --> 01:26:01,150 came to his highly controversial film 1937 01:26:07,170 --> 01:26:04,660 covering the area 51 mythology in 1938 01:26:10,020 --> 01:26:07,180 episode 84 I spoke with investigative 1939 01:26:13,770 --> 01:26:10,030 filmmaker Jeremy Corbyn all about his 1940 01:26:16,740 --> 01:26:13,780 film bob lazar area 51 in flying saucers 1941 01:26:18,540 --> 01:26:16,750 there has been a lot of contention with 1942 01:26:21,240 --> 01:26:18,550 the claims brought forward by Bob Lazar 1943 01:26:23,610 --> 01:26:21,250 and the UFO field in general has always 1944 01:26:26,160 --> 01:26:23,620 been split on whether they believe he is 1945 01:26:29,160 --> 01:26:26,170 telling the truth or not and with his 1946 01:26:31,380 --> 01:26:29,170 story now amplified by corbels film for 1947 01:26:33,540 --> 01:26:31,390 a whole new generation I wanted to hear 1948 01:26:35,940 --> 01:26:33,550 his thoughts on the skeptics 1949 01:26:38,010 --> 01:26:35,950 and even his thoughts on those who 1950 01:26:40,190 --> 01:26:38,020 straight-up debunked the entire Bob 1951 01:26:43,700 --> 01:26:40,200 Lazar story and as you can imagine 1952 01:26:45,530 --> 01:26:43,710 things got real interesting real quick 1953 01:26:50,180 --> 01:26:45,540 it's you know it's an interesting thing 1954 01:26:52,220 --> 01:26:50,190 it's extremely easy for internet trolls 1955 01:26:56,169 --> 01:26:52,230 and people who are on the outside 1956 01:27:00,740 --> 01:26:56,179 looking in to look at a story that is 1957 01:27:03,439 --> 01:27:00,750 fundamentally hard to grasp and then to 1958 01:27:05,060 --> 01:27:03,449 dehumanize the messenger this is 1959 01:27:06,979 --> 01:27:05,070 something that is done over and over 1960 01:27:08,660 --> 01:27:06,989 it's done in warfare this is something 1961 01:27:10,729 --> 01:27:08,670 that is done by intelligence agencies 1962 01:27:14,240 --> 01:27:10,739 this is something that is done so you 1963 01:27:15,979 --> 01:27:14,250 can dismiss the message by dehumanizing 1964 01:27:18,560 --> 01:27:15,989 the messenger you know and I gotta say 1965 01:27:21,320 --> 01:27:18,570 the critics of Bob Lazar have been 1966 01:27:24,530 --> 01:27:21,330 holding the mic for the last thirty 1967 01:27:26,930 --> 01:27:24,540 years and it's time to take the mic back 1968 01:27:29,390 --> 01:27:26,940 and that's exactly what we're gonna do 1969 01:27:30,140 --> 01:27:29,400 on December 3rd at the world premiere in 1970 01:27:32,510 --> 01:27:30,150 Los Angeles 1971 01:27:35,770 --> 01:27:32,520 it is simply time to take the mic back 1972 01:27:38,930 --> 01:27:35,780 you know Bob Bob has never been one to 1973 01:27:40,550 --> 01:27:38,940 try to correct everybody on his story 1974 01:27:42,760 --> 01:27:40,560 and what's been going on he disengaged 1975 01:27:45,649 --> 01:27:42,770 he came forward to protect himself 1976 01:27:48,680 --> 01:27:45,659 whether you believe it or not that's the 1977 01:27:52,000 --> 01:27:48,690 truth now it is time it is time that the 1978 01:27:55,250 --> 01:27:52,010 story is told to to new generations 1979 01:27:57,080 --> 01:27:55,260 think about it thirty years ago was when 1980 01:27:58,880 --> 01:27:57,090 he came forward with George Knapp so now 1981 01:28:01,760 --> 01:27:58,890 we have the opportunity for two new 1982 01:28:03,290 --> 01:28:01,770 generations to hear this story so it's 1983 01:28:04,459 --> 01:28:03,300 happening whether you like it or not 1984 01:28:07,280 --> 01:28:04,469 here's the deal man 1985 01:28:10,970 --> 01:28:07,290 there are more snakes and charlatans and 1986 01:28:14,330 --> 01:28:10,980 half-wit just parents in this field than 1987 01:28:16,850 --> 01:28:14,340 any other field I'm sorry it's true most 1988 01:28:19,490 --> 01:28:16,860 you all being sold a bucket of lies and 1989 01:28:21,530 --> 01:28:19,500 you are just happily eating it up now 1990 01:28:23,720 --> 01:28:21,540 obviously not the fans listening to this 1991 01:28:25,880 --> 01:28:23,730 podcast you listening to Ryan I mean you 1992 01:28:28,669 --> 01:28:25,890 know you've got good taste you know but 1993 01:28:31,070 --> 01:28:28,679 I'm just saying it is true and it is sad 1994 01:28:33,320 --> 01:28:31,080 so people need to snap out of it wake 1995 01:28:35,930 --> 01:28:33,330 the up and start to understand that 1996 01:28:37,520 --> 01:28:35,940 all this BS and I don't even name names 1997 01:28:39,290 --> 01:28:37,530 because the deal is that gives them 1998 01:28:41,240 --> 01:28:39,300 power gives them a platform they don't 1999 01:28:43,399 --> 01:28:41,250 even deserve it but you know all the 2000 01:28:45,020 --> 01:28:43,409 people I'm talking about all these you 2001 01:28:46,790 --> 01:28:45,030 know fake messiahs and people are gonna 2002 01:28:48,290 --> 01:28:46,800 save the world with disclosure and all 2003 01:28:49,220 --> 01:28:48,300 these people that are telling you all 2004 01:28:51,169 --> 01:28:49,230 these things they have not a single 2005 01:28:52,879 --> 01:28:51,179 piece of shred of evidence or any way 2006 01:28:56,210 --> 01:28:52,889 else to back them up besides their other 2007 01:28:59,840 --> 01:28:56,220 charlatan friends I do not focus 2008 01:29:03,080 --> 01:28:59,850 on those stories I will never focus my 2009 01:29:05,810 --> 01:29:03,090 camera on an individual who I think is 2010 01:29:08,450 --> 01:29:05,820 being deceptive not from day one and 2011 01:29:10,790 --> 01:29:08,460 I'll quit in the middle of day one if I 2012 01:29:13,280 --> 01:29:10,800 ever started down that road the films 2013 01:29:15,740 --> 01:29:13,290 you get from me are all about the 2014 01:29:18,980 --> 01:29:15,750 extraordinary beliefs of credible 2015 01:29:20,960 --> 01:29:18,990 individuals I may not completely agree 2016 01:29:23,600 --> 01:29:20,970 with a cosmology that somebody presents 2017 01:29:25,760 --> 01:29:23,610 in one of my films however I will never 2018 01:29:27,380 --> 01:29:25,770 point a camera at somebody who I think 2019 01:29:32,450 --> 01:29:27,390 is intentionally deceiving the public 2020 01:29:35,840 --> 01:29:32,460 never will that's it Jeremy Korbel is 2021 01:29:37,430 --> 01:29:35,850 one passionate mofo if you have not seen 2022 01:29:39,890 --> 01:29:37,440 the film yet please check it out it's on 2023 01:29:40,820 --> 01:29:39,900 all streaming platforms again it's 2024 01:29:43,970 --> 01:29:40,830 called Bob Lazar 2025 01:29:46,160 --> 01:29:43,980 area 51 and flying saucers and you know 2026 01:29:48,320 --> 01:29:46,170 what just make up your own line come to 2027 01:29:50,300 --> 01:29:48,330 your own conclusions on it something 2028 01:29:54,230 --> 01:29:50,310 tells me we're gonna be debating Bob 2029 01:29:56,900 --> 01:29:54,240 Lazar till the end of time episode 84 2030 01:29:58,130 --> 01:29:56,910 was a bit more lighthearted as I had 2031 01:30:00,830 --> 01:29:58,140 three of my good friends and colleagues 2032 01:30:04,640 --> 01:30:00,840 on to talk all about some interesting 2033 01:30:06,920 --> 01:30:04,650 space related discoveries in 2018 my 2034 01:30:09,740 --> 01:30:06,930 guests included Maureen Elsberry and 2035 01:30:12,140 --> 01:30:09,750 Jason McClellan of Rockland and our 2036 01:30:14,000 --> 01:30:12,150 resident pug rocky apologist Mike 2037 01:30:16,160 --> 01:30:14,010 Demonte here 2038 01:30:18,620 --> 01:30:16,170 we discussed the mysterious interstellar 2039 01:30:21,800 --> 01:30:18,630 object that came in for a hug with earth 2040 01:30:24,320 --> 01:30:21,810 and then gave us the cold children we 2041 01:30:27,050 --> 01:30:24,330 had some really like groundbreaking 2042 01:30:30,140 --> 01:30:27,060 stuff happened this past year late 2017 2043 01:30:32,660 --> 01:30:30,150 early 2018 and for the first time in 2044 01:30:35,450 --> 01:30:32,670 history scientists have detected the 2045 01:30:39,140 --> 01:30:35,460 first interstellar object ever observed 2046 01:30:40,490 --> 01:30:39,150 now this is amazing in my opinion we're 2047 01:30:42,800 --> 01:30:40,500 talking about oh mooie-mooie 2048 01:30:45,080 --> 01:30:42,810 avi low chair of the Harvard University 2049 01:30:47,210 --> 01:30:45,090 Astronomy Department said oh mooie-mooie 2050 01:30:49,640 --> 01:30:47,220 did not behave like an ordinary asteroid 2051 01:30:51,530 --> 01:30:49,650 or give off gas like a comet there 2052 01:30:53,870 --> 01:30:51,540 seemed to be an extra force that is 2053 01:30:57,290 --> 01:30:53,880 pushing it and it's not clear what this 2054 01:30:59,180 --> 01:30:57,300 push is from in an upcoming paper he and 2055 01:31:01,610 --> 01:30:59,190 a colleague offer what they call a more 2056 01:31:04,310 --> 01:31:01,620 exotic scenario oh mooie-mooie 2057 01:31:06,500 --> 01:31:04,320 maybe a fully operational probe sent 2058 01:31:08,510 --> 01:31:06,510 intentionally to earth vicinity by an 2059 01:31:09,410 --> 01:31:08,520 alien civilization this thing kind of 2060 01:31:11,419 --> 01:31:09,420 made a comeback 2061 01:31:15,439 --> 01:31:11,429 Harvard scientists wrote a paper about 2062 01:31:16,610 --> 01:31:15,449 it claiming that it could be aliens now 2063 01:31:18,770 --> 01:31:16,620 I know that's you know that's a very 2064 01:31:21,140 --> 01:31:18,780 hypothetical thing and of course every 2065 01:31:24,430 --> 01:31:21,150 news outlet grapples onto that one 2066 01:31:27,380 --> 01:31:24,440 little quote that they say but very 2067 01:31:29,810 --> 01:31:27,390 fascinating this huge elongated object 2068 01:31:31,790 --> 01:31:29,820 that came into our solar system hung out 2069 01:31:35,270 --> 01:31:31,800 for a little bit and made some really 2070 01:31:37,100 --> 01:31:35,280 odd maneuvers and took off probably 2071 01:31:39,520 --> 01:31:37,110 never see it again but who knows but 2072 01:31:41,900 --> 01:31:39,530 what do you guys make up the whole Omaha 2073 01:31:47,390 --> 01:31:41,910 incident where do you all stand on this 2074 01:31:49,910 --> 01:31:47,400 thing it's hard to say I mean because 2075 01:31:52,910 --> 01:31:49,920 you know they that there are there's 2076 01:31:56,050 --> 01:31:52,920 some research to suggest that the kind 2077 01:31:59,090 --> 01:31:56,060 of movement it had could be similar to 2078 01:32:01,970 --> 01:31:59,100 resulting from gases from a comet but 2079 01:32:05,209 --> 01:32:01,980 could it be an alien probe well we can't 2080 01:32:06,950 --> 01:32:05,219 really say it couldn't be because we 2081 01:32:10,160 --> 01:32:06,960 can't see it anymore and we didn't get a 2082 01:32:11,720 --> 01:32:10,170 good enough look at it so maybe but I 2083 01:32:13,250 --> 01:32:11,730 think it's more fascinating you know 2084 01:32:16,430 --> 01:32:13,260 that this is the first object we've 2085 01:32:19,189 --> 01:32:16,440 spotted from interstellar space and that 2086 01:32:21,680 --> 01:32:19,199 they believe that there's at least four 2087 01:32:25,250 --> 01:32:21,690 other objects that could be of 2088 01:32:28,160 --> 01:32:25,260 interstellar origin currently bouncing 2089 01:32:30,890 --> 01:32:28,170 around that you know could be hiding 2090 01:32:33,709 --> 01:32:30,900 amongst all the the other space debris 2091 01:32:35,540 --> 01:32:33,719 and I don't know it's it's kind of 2092 01:32:39,410 --> 01:32:35,550 fascinating or they're just a bunch of 2093 01:32:42,439 --> 01:32:39,420 like creepy alien drones hanging out in 2094 01:32:44,720 --> 01:32:42,449 our solar system it's not that 2095 01:32:47,360 --> 01:32:44,730 far-fetched I mean we say probes to 2096 01:32:49,939 --> 01:32:47,370 other planets granted within our own 2097 01:32:51,979 --> 01:32:49,949 solar system but but just look at Star 2098 01:32:54,229 --> 01:32:51,989 Trek I mean yes it's science fiction but 2099 01:32:56,930 --> 01:32:54,239 is it really that far-fetched to think 2100 01:33:00,200 --> 01:32:56,940 that we could advance to that in the 2101 01:33:02,030 --> 01:33:00,210 relatively near future I don't I mean we 2102 01:33:04,880 --> 01:33:02,040 just had we just had one of our objects 2103 01:33:06,080 --> 01:33:04,890 go interstellar right so yeah I mean you 2104 01:33:08,870 --> 01:33:06,090 make a great point Ryan 2105 01:33:11,959 --> 01:33:08,880 I mean extraterrestrials aside this is 2106 01:33:14,120 --> 01:33:11,969 huge news extremely exciting 2107 01:33:16,100 --> 01:33:14,130 I mean big-time stuff is happening in 2108 01:33:17,930 --> 01:33:16,110 space all the time now and we do live in 2109 01:33:20,800 --> 01:33:17,940 science fiction times and it's super 2110 01:33:23,120 --> 01:33:20,810 exciting so removing the alien 2111 01:33:26,360 --> 01:33:23,130 possibility it's exciting on its own 2112 01:33:28,189 --> 01:33:26,370 zone but yeah I think responsible 2113 01:33:30,620 --> 01:33:28,199 journalists and responsible scientists 2114 01:33:33,200 --> 01:33:30,630 certainly take note of this and see the 2115 01:33:35,000 --> 01:33:33,210 unusual behaviors and certainly 2116 01:33:38,030 --> 01:33:35,010 considering all of the unknowns that 2117 01:33:41,209 --> 01:33:38,040 exist with this thing you can't rule out 2118 01:33:44,959 --> 01:33:41,219 the possibility that this is something 2119 01:33:47,720 --> 01:33:44,969 you know that has an extraterrestrial an 2120 01:33:49,580 --> 01:33:47,730 intelligent extraterrestrial component 2121 01:33:51,830 --> 01:33:49,590 to it that doesn't mean we're saying 2122 01:33:53,510 --> 01:33:51,840 that it is but being a responsible 2123 01:33:55,729 --> 01:33:53,520 scientist and not having all the answers 2124 01:33:57,379 --> 01:33:55,739 you do need to keep an open mind and you 2125 01:33:58,459 --> 01:33:57,389 do have to weigh all the possibilities 2126 01:34:00,590 --> 01:33:58,469 and that's certainly a possibility 2127 01:34:02,120 --> 01:34:00,600 coming from a media standpoint you know 2128 01:34:03,530 --> 01:34:02,130 it's interesting how you know 2129 01:34:05,390 --> 01:34:03,540 rania made that joke you know they're 2130 01:34:07,399 --> 01:34:05,400 playing in the headlines you know the 2131 01:34:10,580 --> 01:34:07,409 alien aspect of it and I don't know if 2132 01:34:12,470 --> 01:34:10,590 that's just kind of more a telling sign 2133 01:34:14,479 --> 01:34:12,480 of how the media's more quick baby 2134 01:34:16,459 --> 01:34:14,489 nowadays or just the fact that they're 2135 01:34:18,560 --> 01:34:16,469 more open to running headlines like that 2136 01:34:20,990 --> 01:34:18,570 in general that that's what they pull 2137 01:34:24,350 --> 01:34:21,000 from that the fact that NASA centers are 2138 01:34:25,700 --> 01:34:24,360 saying it could be aliens so either way 2139 01:34:27,770 --> 01:34:25,710 you look at it I think you know you have 2140 01:34:29,030 --> 01:34:27,780 this you know then potentially trying to 2141 01:34:30,620 --> 01:34:29,040 sensationalize a little bit by running 2142 01:34:32,450 --> 01:34:30,630 out in the head wine but also that's 2143 01:34:34,310 --> 01:34:32,460 kind of the news too because you know 2144 01:34:36,890 --> 01:34:34,320 maybe 20 years ago NASA scientists would 2145 01:34:38,419 --> 01:34:36,900 have been so open to even state that 2146 01:34:41,090 --> 01:34:38,429 claim so I think it's fascinating how 2147 01:34:42,740 --> 01:34:41,100 it's been played out well in what's even 2148 01:34:45,169 --> 01:34:42,750 more exciting to is because of this 2149 01:34:47,540 --> 01:34:45,179 object they're building another 2150 01:34:49,010 --> 01:34:47,550 telescope in Chile once it's completed 2151 01:34:50,899 --> 01:34:49,020 they're gonna use it to search for 2152 01:34:52,820 --> 01:34:50,909 similar objects like you said Maureen 2153 01:34:54,140 --> 01:34:52,830 there are possibly other objects out 2154 01:34:57,590 --> 01:34:54,150 there like this 2155 01:34:59,540 --> 01:34:57,600 so now it's pushing scientists to fund 2156 01:35:01,850 --> 01:34:59,550 these telescopes to look for more of 2157 01:35:03,800 --> 01:35:01,860 them and you can't ask for more than 2158 01:35:05,870 --> 01:35:03,810 that and you can't ask for more than all 2159 01:35:08,240 --> 01:35:05,880 of these scientists writing new papers 2160 01:35:10,399 --> 01:35:08,250 arguing comet asteroid something other 2161 01:35:11,870 --> 01:35:10,409 than that it just keeps going and going 2162 01:35:14,780 --> 01:35:11,880 and the fact that we don't have a clear 2163 01:35:17,419 --> 01:35:14,790 answer yet of what this thing was that's 2164 01:35:19,700 --> 01:35:17,429 actually exciting than giving an answer 2165 01:35:21,950 --> 01:35:19,710 I think that unknown is what keeps us 2166 01:35:27,620 --> 01:35:21,960 going and I think that is buried 100% 2167 01:35:30,950 --> 01:35:27,630 yes oh please come back we've barely got 2168 01:35:34,970 --> 01:35:30,960 to know yet and we want to show you well 2169 01:35:35,950 --> 01:35:34,980 this is why I do a UFO podcast and not 2170 01:35:39,130 --> 01:35:35,960 poetry 2171 01:35:42,470 --> 01:35:39,140 moving right along to episode 93 I 2172 01:35:44,990 --> 01:35:42,480 welcomed diana walsh posaga to the show 2173 01:35:47,360 --> 01:35:45,000 she is a professor of Religious Studies 2174 01:35:50,210 --> 01:35:47,370 at the University of North Carolina 2175 01:35:52,910 --> 01:35:50,220 Wilmington and chair of the department 2176 01:35:56,870 --> 01:35:52,920 of philosophy and religion her latest 2177 01:36:00,530 --> 01:35:56,880 book made a huge splash in early 2019 in 2178 01:36:02,930 --> 01:36:00,540 that is American cosmic UFOs religion 2179 01:36:05,540 --> 01:36:02,940 technology rusalka interviewed 2180 01:36:07,880 --> 01:36:05,550 successful and influential scientists 2181 01:36:10,160 --> 01:36:07,890 professionals and Silicon Valley 2182 01:36:12,890 --> 01:36:10,170 entrepreneurs who believed in 2183 01:36:14,840 --> 01:36:12,900 extraterrestrial intelligence thereby 2184 01:36:17,570 --> 01:36:14,850 disproving the common misconception that 2185 01:36:20,630 --> 01:36:17,580 only fringe members of society believe 2186 01:36:22,280 --> 01:36:20,640 in UFOs American cosmic explores the 2187 01:36:25,550 --> 01:36:22,290 intriguing question of how people 2188 01:36:27,740 --> 01:36:25,560 interpret unexplainable experiences in 2189 01:36:30,080 --> 01:36:27,750 the book argues that the media is 2190 01:36:32,690 --> 01:36:30,090 replacing religion as a cultural 2191 01:36:35,090 --> 01:36:32,700 Authority that offers believers answers 2192 01:36:37,130 --> 01:36:35,100 about non-human intelligent life and the 2193 01:36:39,340 --> 01:36:37,140 enigmatic phenomenon often connected to 2194 01:36:44,420 --> 01:36:39,350 all of this UFOs 2195 01:36:47,450 --> 01:36:44,430 so basically I see this as what I set 2196 01:36:49,190 --> 01:36:47,460 out to do when I realized that a lot of 2197 01:36:52,100 --> 01:36:49,200 people were interpreting their 2198 01:36:55,940 --> 01:36:52,110 encounters and sightings as religious 2199 01:36:58,520 --> 01:36:55,950 like right or spiritual I'm like Carl 2200 01:37:00,890 --> 01:36:58,530 Jung I said wow this is an this is 2201 01:37:04,400 --> 01:37:00,900 something unprecedented this is a new 2202 01:37:06,740 --> 01:37:04,410 type of religiosity it has nothing to do 2203 01:37:10,370 --> 01:37:06,750 with old types of traditional religions 2204 01:37:14,240 --> 01:37:10,380 and so the thing I wanted to convey by 2205 01:37:16,160 --> 01:37:14,250 this book for academics was that the 2206 01:37:18,020 --> 01:37:16,170 digital infrastructure and this is what 2207 01:37:20,210 --> 01:37:18,030 Jacques understood too when he says that 2208 01:37:22,850 --> 01:37:20,220 the phenomena acts like a technology the 2209 01:37:25,130 --> 01:37:22,860 digital infrastructure has created a new 2210 01:37:27,170 --> 01:37:25,140 form of spirituality a new form of 2211 01:37:28,910 --> 01:37:27,180 religion really whereas we have these 2212 01:37:31,190 --> 01:37:28,920 old forms of religion where we have 2213 01:37:33,080 --> 01:37:31,200 basically guys who begin these religions 2214 01:37:35,210 --> 01:37:33,090 like you know it's the Buddha or you 2215 01:37:36,980 --> 01:37:35,220 have you know you have some religions 2216 01:37:39,070 --> 01:37:36,990 started by women but not not many and 2217 01:37:42,410 --> 01:37:39,080 you know you have like a central figure 2218 01:37:44,600 --> 01:37:42,420 Muhammad you know and then they start 2219 01:37:47,540 --> 01:37:44,610 their religion but here what you have is 2220 01:37:49,669 --> 01:37:47,550 you have a diffuse form of spiritual 2221 01:37:52,669 --> 01:37:49,679 reality for people who 2222 01:37:54,860 --> 01:37:52,679 talk amongst themselves and they it's 2223 01:37:57,350 --> 01:37:54,870 communities of people and there there's 2224 01:37:59,899 --> 01:37:57,360 no hierarchy here I mean you know there 2225 01:38:02,630 --> 01:37:59,909 are people who are experienced errs like 2226 01:38:05,270 --> 01:38:02,640 Travis Walton say and you know has a a 2227 01:38:07,340 --> 01:38:05,280 movie made or something like that but in 2228 01:38:09,620 --> 01:38:07,350 but you know with the the contact 2229 01:38:11,810 --> 01:38:09,630 movements that are but that are 2230 01:38:14,030 --> 01:38:11,820 springing up through all over the globe 2231 01:38:16,790 --> 01:38:14,040 right now you have this diffuse form of 2232 01:38:18,890 --> 01:38:16,800 religion and spirituality that is you 2233 01:38:21,080 --> 01:38:18,900 know going everywhere it's it's kind of 2234 01:38:23,680 --> 01:38:21,090 leaky it's like networking and it really 2235 01:38:26,450 --> 01:38:23,690 replicates the internet it replicates 2236 01:38:28,280 --> 01:38:26,460 technology even the synchronicities our 2237 01:38:31,550 --> 01:38:28,290 technological you know people can have 2238 01:38:33,770 --> 01:38:31,560 bought synchronicities so you know I 2239 01:38:35,899 --> 01:38:33,780 really wanted to show that to people 2240 01:38:38,540 --> 01:38:35,909 I also that's why I kind of kept going 2241 01:38:40,490 --> 01:38:38,550 back to 2001 a Space Odyssey yeah why 2242 01:38:43,550 --> 01:38:40,500 don't you show that well for one thing 2243 01:38:45,500 --> 01:38:43,560 Wow Kubrick was insanely brilliant I 2244 01:38:47,240 --> 01:38:45,510 don't even know I mean how did he know 2245 01:38:50,390 --> 01:38:47,250 all of this back then I don't know I 2246 01:38:52,610 --> 01:38:50,400 love Robert Ayers interpretation of the 2247 01:38:55,340 --> 01:38:52,620 monolith as like the iPhone or the 2248 01:38:57,979 --> 01:38:55,350 screen you know and that you know the 2249 01:39:01,760 --> 01:38:57,989 monolith functions as this alien 2250 01:39:06,169 --> 01:39:01,770 technology and it's created a new form 2251 01:39:07,850 --> 01:39:06,179 of religiosity so Carl Jung so I I was 2252 01:39:11,630 --> 01:39:07,860 trying to answer Carl Jung's 2253 01:39:13,550 --> 01:39:11,640 challenge this book is certainly making 2254 01:39:16,100 --> 01:39:13,560 waves in the mainstream scientific 2255 01:39:18,340 --> 01:39:16,110 community theological communities and 2256 01:39:21,169 --> 01:39:18,350 even the intelligence community's 2257 01:39:23,209 --> 01:39:21,179 pisanka even claims that because of the 2258 01:39:24,890 --> 01:39:23,219 sensitive nature of some of the people 2259 01:39:27,680 --> 01:39:24,900 she interviewed in the book every 2260 01:39:29,660 --> 01:39:27,690 interview she gives is monitored and 2261 01:39:32,090 --> 01:39:29,670 sometimes even vetted for either 2262 01:39:34,820 --> 01:39:32,100 classified information or information 2263 01:39:36,740 --> 01:39:34,830 that may give away the identities of 2264 01:39:38,689 --> 01:39:36,750 some of the permanent people who went 2265 01:39:41,959 --> 01:39:38,699 out on a limb to give their thoughts and 2266 01:39:44,330 --> 01:39:41,969 experiences with the UFOs that's pretty 2267 01:39:46,760 --> 01:39:44,340 scary it's actually true otherwise it's 2268 01:39:47,870 --> 01:39:46,770 a really good marketing tool Bravo 2269 01:39:50,240 --> 01:39:47,880 yourself 2270 01:39:52,490 --> 01:39:50,250 another book that will release in mere 2271 01:39:56,300 --> 01:39:52,500 weeks is won by someone the sky's 2272 01:39:59,300 --> 01:39:56,310 regular contributor MJ bananas MJ is an 2273 01:40:02,120 --> 01:39:59,310 educator writer and youtuber his book 2274 01:40:04,760 --> 01:40:02,130 the UFO people a curious culture is 2275 01:40:07,640 --> 01:40:04,770 going to release any day now and I had 2276 01:40:10,640 --> 01:40:07,650 him on for episode 99 to discuss the 2277 01:40:13,610 --> 01:40:10,650 book in debt the book is part narrative 2278 01:40:15,740 --> 01:40:13,620 journey and part cultural study and it's 2279 01:40:17,930 --> 01:40:15,750 a challenge to the UFO subculture and 2280 01:40:20,420 --> 01:40:17,940 the broader public to recognize that 2281 01:40:23,420 --> 01:40:20,430 UFOs and the people who study them 2282 01:40:27,440 --> 01:40:23,430 challenge societal norms institutions 2283 01:40:30,800 --> 01:40:27,450 and even ideology the UFO phenomenon 2284 01:40:33,440 --> 01:40:30,810 real or not abandons us to a ghostly 2285 01:40:36,170 --> 01:40:33,450 realm where nothing should be taken for 2286 01:40:37,580 --> 01:40:36,180 granted I think you know if for your 2287 01:40:38,780 --> 01:40:37,590 longtime listeners and all the shows 2288 01:40:40,160 --> 01:40:38,790 I've sort of been on previously on 2289 01:40:41,960 --> 01:40:40,170 somewhere in the skies I think they've 2290 01:40:45,290 --> 01:40:41,970 sort of heard me say it many times but 2291 01:40:47,840 --> 01:40:45,300 I'm very confident that ufology is 2292 01:40:50,090 --> 01:40:47,850 actually philosophy if you follow Jesus 2293 01:40:51,680 --> 01:40:50,100 aim like I'm gonna sort of argue a bit 2294 01:40:56,150 --> 01:40:51,690 that there really is no ufology proper 2295 01:40:59,300 --> 01:40:56,160 but the art of engaging with the UFO 2296 01:41:02,360 --> 01:40:59,310 phenomenon or or UFO discourse is really 2297 01:41:05,960 --> 01:41:02,370 a philosophical project the way we 2298 01:41:08,810 --> 01:41:05,970 interpret reality is all mediated by 2299 01:41:11,420 --> 01:41:08,820 language and how we make and give things 2300 01:41:14,300 --> 01:41:11,430 meaning anytime you give anything 2301 01:41:16,520 --> 01:41:14,310 meaning or definition you are creating a 2302 01:41:17,990 --> 01:41:16,530 reality for it reality is real in the 2303 01:41:20,540 --> 01:41:18,000 sense that you know things exist in the 2304 01:41:22,220 --> 01:41:20,550 universe and and and you know objects 2305 01:41:26,450 --> 01:41:22,230 are there like there is an objective 2306 01:41:27,050 --> 01:41:26,460 reality but without us it really has no 2307 01:41:32,450 --> 01:41:27,060 meaning 2308 01:41:34,700 --> 01:41:32,460 so a coffee cup is a coffee cup 2309 01:41:36,290 --> 01:41:34,710 not because of some objective coffee cup 2310 01:41:38,120 --> 01:41:36,300 it's a coffee cup because we say it's a 2311 01:41:41,360 --> 01:41:38,130 coffee cup whenever you deal with any 2312 01:41:44,030 --> 01:41:41,370 meaning whatsoever in reality you can 2313 01:41:47,030 --> 01:41:44,040 tear that meaning down and so you can 2314 01:41:50,030 --> 01:41:47,040 kind of go through why certain ideas we 2315 01:41:52,760 --> 01:41:50,040 have have the ideas that sort of are in 2316 01:41:54,350 --> 01:41:52,770 them you know why are why is the 2317 01:41:56,510 --> 01:41:54,360 masculine masculine or why is the 2318 01:41:58,280 --> 01:41:56,520 feminine feminine we can break those 2319 01:42:01,439 --> 01:41:58,290 ideas down and see where they came from 2320 01:42:03,780 --> 01:42:01,449 we sort of create meaning in turn but 2321 01:42:05,970 --> 01:42:03,790 ultimately we can kind of start to chip 2322 01:42:07,800 --> 01:42:05,980 away at the different layers and filters 2323 01:42:10,020 --> 01:42:07,810 we've applied to the world around us 2324 01:42:12,330 --> 01:42:10,030 there's sort of one thing though that 2325 01:42:14,550 --> 01:42:12,340 that typically defies meaning and as a 2326 01:42:16,800 --> 01:42:14,560 sort of undefinable thing or an 2327 01:42:18,689 --> 01:42:16,810 undestructible thing and a ghost is a 2328 01:42:22,130 --> 01:42:18,699 great example of this right a Spectre is 2329 01:42:24,780 --> 01:42:22,140 something that cannot be I guess 2330 01:42:26,669 --> 01:42:24,790 deconstructed because it exists and it 2331 01:42:28,620 --> 01:42:26,679 does not exist right ghosts by their 2332 01:42:30,720 --> 01:42:28,630 very nature are real and not real 2333 01:42:32,700 --> 01:42:30,730 they're fact and fiction they're their 2334 01:42:34,800 --> 01:42:32,710 their reality and mythology 2335 01:42:37,530 --> 01:42:34,810 simultaneously and we can't necessarily 2336 01:42:40,530 --> 01:42:37,540 kind of break them down not really 2337 01:42:42,450 --> 01:42:40,540 ghosts as like the spirits of the Dead 2338 01:42:44,459 --> 01:42:42,460 ghosts more as sort of our shared 2339 01:42:45,780 --> 01:42:44,469 experiences as a society and it gets all 2340 01:42:47,550 --> 01:42:45,790 quite philosophical and I go through 2341 01:42:50,820 --> 01:42:47,560 that in the book but to sort of quickly 2342 01:42:53,490 --> 01:42:50,830 boil this down the UFO community is sort 2343 01:42:55,530 --> 01:42:53,500 of similar the UFO community exists and 2344 01:42:58,260 --> 01:42:55,540 it does not exist very similarly just 2345 01:42:58,800 --> 01:42:58,270 like the UFO the UFO exists and does not 2346 01:43:01,650 --> 01:42:58,810 exist 2347 01:43:05,010 --> 01:43:01,660 it's a specter it shows up and it 2348 01:43:07,830 --> 01:43:05,020 disappears it took to a lot of people 2349 01:43:09,209 --> 01:43:07,840 it's real it's a real physical object 2350 01:43:10,979 --> 01:43:09,219 that's tangible that they can touch 2351 01:43:14,459 --> 01:43:10,989 they've been aboard that they've 2352 01:43:16,860 --> 01:43:14,469 experienced in some way not just seeing 2353 01:43:21,150 --> 01:43:16,870 it but engaging with it communing with 2354 01:43:24,810 --> 01:43:21,160 it in some way but others the UFO is a 2355 01:43:28,140 --> 01:43:24,820 myth it's its folktale it's it's just 2356 01:43:30,450 --> 01:43:28,150 lore it's it's mythology right so the 2357 01:43:32,520 --> 01:43:30,460 UFO exists in this dual state and the 2358 01:43:33,209 --> 01:43:32,530 people who pursue UFOs you know us the 2359 01:43:36,180 --> 01:43:33,219 UFO people 2360 01:43:38,240 --> 01:43:36,190 we're also ghosts we sort of haunt 2361 01:43:41,700 --> 01:43:38,250 mainstream culture and popular culture 2362 01:43:45,419 --> 01:43:41,710 we have our feet in two worlds right we 2363 01:43:47,160 --> 01:43:45,429 on the one hand we go to Starbucks and 2364 01:43:49,770 --> 01:43:47,170 drink coffee we drive our kids to dance 2365 01:43:52,169 --> 01:43:49,780 class you know we we buy minivans and 2366 01:43:54,630 --> 01:43:52,179 and and apartments and houses and we 2367 01:43:56,160 --> 01:43:54,640 have day jobs and we and we have a bank 2368 01:43:58,350 --> 01:43:56,170 account and pay our mortgage like you 2369 01:44:00,510 --> 01:43:58,360 know we live that life that normal daily 2370 01:44:01,260 --> 01:44:00,520 sort of what we would deem real life 2371 01:44:03,270 --> 01:44:01,270 quote unquote 2372 01:44:05,790 --> 01:44:03,280 but then on the flip side were also a 2373 01:44:08,070 --> 01:44:05,800 group of people who believe in things 2374 01:44:09,930 --> 01:44:08,080 that ought not to exist right we believe 2375 01:44:12,330 --> 01:44:09,940 in UFOs and we believe in ghosts and we 2376 01:44:14,510 --> 01:44:12,340 believe in potentially Bigfoot all of 2377 01:44:16,520 --> 01:44:14,520 these other paranormal phenomena that 2378 01:44:18,260 --> 01:44:16,530 Challenge the other side right they 2379 01:44:19,910 --> 01:44:18,270 challenged the idea of you should go to 2380 01:44:22,070 --> 01:44:19,920 Starbucks and have a mortgage and Driver 2381 01:44:25,430 --> 01:44:22,080 kids to dance class they challenged the 2382 01:44:27,380 --> 01:44:25,440 very fabric of our daily lives so how do 2383 01:44:29,480 --> 01:44:27,390 we reconcile this right how do we as 2384 01:44:31,480 --> 01:44:29,490 people who believe in flying saucers and 2385 01:44:34,640 --> 01:44:31,490 UFOs and interdimensional beings 2386 01:44:36,950 --> 01:44:34,650 reconcile the fact that I still like pay 2387 01:44:39,290 --> 01:44:36,960 a mortgage and have a bank account and 2388 01:44:43,340 --> 01:44:39,300 for some reason like go to work every 2389 01:44:45,500 --> 01:44:43,350 day and like to what end right so we we 2390 01:44:49,400 --> 01:44:45,510 get stuck in this ghostly realm this 2391 01:44:51,920 --> 01:44:49,410 in-between realm of our daily lives that 2392 01:44:54,200 --> 01:44:51,930 we would say are real is real and then 2393 01:44:56,930 --> 01:44:54,210 this UFO world that we would say is real 2394 01:44:57,320 --> 01:44:56,940 and they're an incredible conflict with 2395 01:45:01,580 --> 01:44:57,330 each other 2396 01:45:03,620 --> 01:45:01,590 I actually think conflict is a very good 2397 01:45:07,190 --> 01:45:03,630 way to put it and to kind of wrap this 2398 01:45:10,400 --> 01:45:07,200 up US UFO people are our own greatest 2399 01:45:13,100 --> 01:45:10,410 supporters but many times are also our 2400 01:45:13,670 --> 01:45:13,110 own greatest enemies just like any other 2401 01:45:17,480 --> 01:45:13,680 community 2402 01:45:20,810 --> 01:45:17,490 we often gossip fight and sometimes even 2403 01:45:22,760 --> 01:45:20,820 sabotage one another's work but I don't 2404 01:45:26,330 --> 01:45:22,770 want that to be what this show ever 2405 01:45:28,850 --> 01:45:26,340 becomes so I am counting on you the 2406 01:45:32,390 -->
