1 00:00:01,800 --> 00:00:19,269 foreign 2 00:00:25,429 --> 00:00:22,070 read that report for any type of 3 00:00:28,009 --> 00:00:25,439 detailed information broadly speaking 4 00:00:29,390 --> 00:00:28,019 when it comes to the types of processes 5 00:00:32,870 --> 00:00:29,400 and procedures that have been 6 00:00:35,389 --> 00:00:32,880 established the the Aero offices you 7 00:00:37,310 --> 00:00:35,399 highlighted has 8 00:00:40,369 --> 00:00:37,320 closely worked with each of the service 9 00:00:42,350 --> 00:00:40,379 branches to come up with a streamlined 10 00:00:44,990 --> 00:00:42,360 reporting system to be able to to 11 00:00:47,209 --> 00:00:45,000 collect that information and so by 12 00:00:49,310 --> 00:00:47,219 establishing those reporting procedures 13 00:00:50,990 --> 00:00:49,320 what it does and I think you'll see this 14 00:00:53,270 --> 00:00:51,000 in the report is it allows the 15 00:00:55,189 --> 00:00:53,280 collection of data and more data allows 16 00:00:57,470 --> 00:00:55,199 us to be a little bit more rigorous in 17 00:01:00,889 --> 00:00:57,480 terms of how we go after investigating 18 00:01:04,009 --> 00:01:00,899 these incidents

00:06:30,710 --> 00:06:28,560 dropped the 2002 annual report on UAP 111 00:06:32,510 --> 00:06:30,720 was published by the pentagon's office 112 00:06:35,450 --> 00:06:32,520 of the Director of National Intelligence 113 00:06:37,129 --> 00:06:35,460 and um after a two-month delay like I 114 00:06:39,710 --> 00:06:37,139 mentioned earlier the report was 115 00:06:42,650 --> 00:06:39,720 mandated by the 2022 National Defense 116 00:06:44,990 --> 00:06:42,660 authorization act and was created by the 117 00:06:47,870 --> 00:06:45,000 odni's National Intelligence manager for 118 00:06:51,230 --> 00:06:47,880 Aviation and the newly established all 119 00:06:53,390 --> 00:06:51,240 domain anomaly resolution office as we 120 00:06:56,029 --> 00:06:53,400 now know Arrow 121 00:06:58,490 --> 00:06:56,039 um so initial thoughts Micah let's start 122 00:07:00,650 --> 00:06:58,500 with you buddy it finally dropped it 123 00:07:01,909 --> 00:07:00,660 came out of nowhere you know we always 124 00:07:04,370 --> 00:07:01,919 think it's going to happen on a holiday 125 00:07:05,930 --> 00:07:04,380 or maybe a Friday they dropped it on a 126 00:07:07,969 --> 00:07:05,940 Thursday which was pretty interesting 127 00:07:10,029 --> 00:07:07,979 but what were your initial reactions 128 00:07:12,230 --> 00:07:10,039 when it first came out 129 00:07:14,870 --> 00:07:12,240 of course I've been watching around the 130 00:07:17,450 --> 00:07:14,880 clock and uh with the the past history 131 00:07:20,330 --> 00:07:17,460 of DOD announcements in recent years 132 00:07:22,430 --> 00:07:20,340 related to this subject I mean as you 133 00:07:24,950 --> 00:07:22,440 know members of Congress are leaving for 134 00:07:27,890 --> 00:07:24,960 the Thanksgiving holiday back in 2021 135 00:07:29,689 --> 00:07:27,900 uh there had been the announcement of 136 00:07:31,790 --> 00:07:29,699 the predecessor which actually was the 137 00:07:33,230 --> 00:07:31,800 same thing as Arrow the ultimane anomaly 138 00:07:35,930 --> 00:07:33,240 resolution office but they had 139 00:07:37,070 --> 00:07:35,940 previously called it aimsog and uh we 140 00:07:39,050 --> 00:07:37,080 won't even try to remember the name of 141 00:07:40,490 --> 00:07:39,060 that one right I think somebody uh 142 00:07:41,629 --> 00:07:40,500 agreed several somebody's that they 143 00:07:43,629 --> 00:07:41,639 needed to change that name but that 144 00:07:45,469 --> 00:07:43,639 announcement had initially been made is 145 00:07:47,089 --> 00:07:45,479 lawmakers were leaving for the 146 00:07:49,490 --> 00:07:47,099 Thanksgiving holiday it was announced 147 00:07:52,249 --> 00:07:49,500 very quietly close to 4 P.M the original 148 00:07:55,390 --> 00:07:52,259 2021 odni report 149 00:07:58,670 --> 00:07:55,400 actually dropped on a Friday I believe 150 00:07:59,809 --> 00:07:58,680 uh at like you know right after 4 P.M so 151 00:08:02,210 --> 00:07:59,819 we're kind of used to these things 152 00:08:04,610 --> 00:08:02,220 happening right before a holiday we had 153 00:08:06,770 --> 00:08:04,620 gotten at least an inkling of an idea 154 00:08:09,469 --> 00:08:06,780 late last year from Arrow leadership 155 00:08:11,930 --> 00:08:09,479 notably Dr Sean Kirkpatrick the director 156 00:08:15,409 --> 00:08:11,940 of Arrow appeared with Ronald Moultrie 157 00:08:16,850 --> 00:08:15,419 and gave a brief uh kind of they held 158 00:08:17,990 --> 00:08:16,860 what they called a media Roundtable but 159 00:08:20,270 --> 00:08:18,000 it was a very brief statement about 160 00:08:22,490 --> 00:08:20,280 arrows activities in advance of this 161 00:08:24,409 --> 00:08:22,500 report uh and you know aldications 162 00:08:25,909 --> 00:08:24,419 seemed to be that by the end of 2022 we 163 00:08:28,550 --> 00:08:25,919 were going to see it and so the Friday 164 00:08:29,990 --> 00:08:28,560 before New Year's I was sitting there 165 00:08:31,610 --> 00:08:30,000 waiting thinking I know what you guys 166 00:08:33,529 --> 00:08:31,620 are planning to do right we're going to 167 00:08:37,010 --> 00:08:33,539 see this report at the last minute 168 00:08:39,829 --> 00:08:37,020 before uh you know according to this 169 00:08:41,690 --> 00:08:39,839 timeline for 2022 without it being a 170 00:08:43,730 --> 00:08:41,700 holiday or a weekend we would possibly 171 00:08:46,010 --> 00:08:43,740 likely see that report and it still 172 00:08:47,570 --> 00:08:46,020 didn't arrive so you know a lot of 173 00:08:49,910 --> 00:08:47,580 people were going on Twitter and saying 174 00:08:52,790 --> 00:08:49,920 well I guess the 2022 annual report's 175 00:08:54,650 --> 00:08:52,800 not going to become a 2023 report uh 176 00:08:56,150 --> 00:08:54,660 apparently it's late delivery didn't 177 00:08:58,910 --> 00:08:56,160 change the title it's still referred to 178 00:09:01,250 --> 00:08:58,920 as a 2022 report we got it much later 179 00:09:03,829 --> 00:09:01,260 not just weeks but in fact months after 180 00:09:05,269 --> 00:09:03,839 it was due but it's uh better to see it 181 00:09:08,150 --> 00:09:05,279 and of course as the old saying goes 182 00:09:09,889 --> 00:09:08,160 late than never that's that's you know 183 00:09:12,470 --> 00:09:09,899 okay by me as long as the information's 184 00:09:14,690 --> 00:09:12,480 there but in in you know summary 185 00:09:16,730 --> 00:09:14,700 the UAP Community has essentially kind 186 00:09:19,130 --> 00:09:16,740 of responded to this report with very 187 00:09:21,230 --> 00:09:19,140 lackluster uh you know attitudes they 188 00:09:23,990 --> 00:09:21,240 are not very pleased with what it says 189 00:09:25,970 --> 00:09:24,000 uh or actually you know what it doesn't 190 00:09:28,009 --> 00:09:25,980 say because if anything there seems to 191 00:09:29,690 --> 00:09:28,019 be even less information of substance 192 00:09:31,790 --> 00:09:29,700 conveyed in this report than the last 193 00:09:33,949 --> 00:09:31,800 odni report I'm sure we'll delve into 194 00:09:35,750 --> 00:09:33,959 all the reasons for that but I'll just 195 00:09:37,970 --> 00:09:35,760 say this what little this new report 196 00:09:40,610 --> 00:09:37,980 does convey is actually of significance 197 00:09:42,410 --> 00:09:40,620 and Bleak though people's interpretation 198 00:09:44,389 --> 00:09:42,420 of it have been you know didn't meet 199 00:09:46,310 --> 00:09:44,399 expectations it doesn't give us all the 200 00:09:48,530 --> 00:09:46,320 details about Crash records retrievals 201 00:09:50,090 --> 00:09:48,540 health effects on Witnesses bodies and 202 00:09:52,009 --> 00:09:50,100 things like this being stored on us at 203 00:09:53,509 --> 00:09:52,019 Wright-Patterson Air Force Base no none 204 00:09:55,730 --> 00:09:53,519 of that's in the report but there is 205 00:09:57,590 --> 00:09:55,740 some significant data we'll go over that 206 00:10:00,290 --> 00:09:57,600 oh I can't wait to hear what you have to 207 00:10:01,670 --> 00:10:00,300 say awesome Chris how about you man what 208 00:10:03,650 --> 00:10:01,680 was your initial reaction when this 209 00:10:05,570 --> 00:10:03,660 finally dropped well first of all I just 210 00:10:07,970 --> 00:10:05,580 found it really suspect how quickly 211 00:10:10,130 --> 00:10:07,980 Micah Hanks got this article out on that 212 00:10:12,290 --> 00:10:10,140 I mean you know I think that's the 213 00:10:14,389 --> 00:10:12,300 second or third time that something that 214 00:10:17,750 --> 00:10:14,399 the dod put out and almost immediately 215 00:10:19,130 --> 00:10:17,760 the the brief has an article out so if 216 00:10:20,810 --> 00:10:19,140 they want to connect the dots there but 217 00:10:23,329 --> 00:10:20,820 that seems a little suspicious 218 00:10:24,949 --> 00:10:23,339 uh but all joking aside 219 00:10:26,690 --> 00:10:24,959 um you know it's more in line with what 220 00:10:29,509 --> 00:10:26,700 I suspected and what I was telling 221 00:10:31,370 --> 00:10:29,519 people before it came out was here's 222 00:10:34,790 --> 00:10:31,380 where I would think is look at history 223 00:10:37,190 --> 00:10:34,800 so in 1947 when a lot of this was first 224 00:10:39,170 --> 00:10:37,200 starting to go on the military had 225 00:10:41,750 --> 00:10:39,180 General Nathan Twining kind of get a 226 00:10:44,150 --> 00:10:41,760 team together and uh and kind of before 227 00:10:46,190 --> 00:10:44,160 there was even an official Air Force and 228 00:10:48,590 --> 00:10:46,200 look into it and say you know what do 229 00:10:51,230 --> 00:10:48,600 you think is going on and so he came 230 00:10:53,210 --> 00:10:51,240 back with the now Infamous Twining memo 231 00:10:54,889 --> 00:10:53,220 but at the time that was a private 232 00:10:57,889 --> 00:10:54,899 document within the military it wasn't 233 00:10:59,930 --> 00:10:57,899 something that was circulated and that 234 00:11:03,470 --> 00:10:59,940 was basically the the big quote out of 235 00:11:05,990 --> 00:11:03,480 that memo was uh that UFOs are not 236 00:11:07,550 --> 00:11:06,000 fictitious or Visionary but they are a 237 00:11:09,889 --> 00:11:07,560 real thing that Pilots are military 238 00:11:12,769 --> 00:11:09,899 Pilots are really encountering 239 00:11:15,110 --> 00:11:12,779 I find that interesting because that's 240 00:11:18,110 --> 00:11:15,120 kind of to me what the uaptf report was 241 00:11:20,030 --> 00:11:18,120 was kind of that that kind of a triage 242 00:11:23,090 --> 00:11:20,040 if you will of the whole situation the 243 00:11:24,590 --> 00:11:23,100 uaptf report raised enough flags and saw 244 00:11:27,290 --> 00:11:24,600 enough interesting cases and enough 245 00:11:30,350 --> 00:11:27,300 unknowns that I'm talking about the June 246 00:11:32,569 --> 00:11:30,360 2021 report that they said all right 247 00:11:34,310 --> 00:11:32,579 let's go ahead and put an organization 248 00:11:38,210 --> 00:11:34,320 together let's get them some funding and 249 00:11:41,810 --> 00:11:38,220 let's really look into this in 1947 that 250 00:11:44,090 --> 00:11:41,820 resulted in Project sign and uh and here 251 00:11:47,750 --> 00:11:44,100 we we ended up with the uh as as Michael 252 00:11:49,910 --> 00:11:47,760 pointed out the ahomesig or ainsog and 253 00:11:52,850 --> 00:11:49,920 then we ended up with this more formal 254 00:11:56,389 --> 00:11:52,860 group so I I think it's almost like in 255 00:11:58,910 --> 00:11:56,399 in that way the old report was kind of a 256 00:12:02,030 --> 00:11:58,920 pre-report and this was the first 257 00:12:05,870 --> 00:12:02,040 official that the group is together this 258 00:12:07,550 --> 00:12:05,880 is our report I will say for me the most 259 00:12:09,650 --> 00:12:07,560 I think we've reached a point that's 260 00:12:11,449 --> 00:12:09,660 become the most frustrating thing for me 261 00:12:14,509 --> 00:12:11,459 and I think for people viewing is even 262 00:12:16,850 --> 00:12:14,519 way back then when project sign came out 263 00:12:19,930 --> 00:12:16,860 with their first report which is the 264 00:12:23,090 --> 00:12:19,940 analog I'm making here they supposedly 265 00:12:25,190 --> 00:12:23,100 wrote up something called an estimate of 266 00:12:27,710 --> 00:12:25,200 the situation and that's become a very 267 00:12:30,949 --> 00:12:27,720 controversial document whether it did or 268 00:12:33,949 --> 00:12:30,959 didn't exist the first director of the 269 00:12:37,430 --> 00:12:33,959 uh blue book Edward rupelp wrote in his 270 00:12:39,650 --> 00:12:37,440 book that it definitely existed and in 271 00:12:42,110 --> 00:12:39,660 that first estimate of the situation 272 00:12:44,449 --> 00:12:42,120 after spending a decent amount of time 273 00:12:46,490 --> 00:12:44,459 looking at it the scientists military 274 00:12:48,829 --> 00:12:46,500 personnel aviators that were on that 275 00:12:50,750 --> 00:12:48,839 team and again it was considered the a 276 00:12:53,629 --> 00:12:50,760 blue ribbon panel that team they put 277 00:12:57,230 --> 00:12:53,639 together for uh project sign came back 278 00:13:00,170 --> 00:12:57,240 and said the Extraterrestrial hypothesis 279 00:13:01,550 --> 00:13:00,180 is still at this point the best 280 00:13:04,550 --> 00:13:01,560 hypothesis 281 00:13:06,530 --> 00:13:04,560 so I think that's probably if I were to 282 00:13:07,790 --> 00:13:06,540 say what's the most frustrating thing 283 00:13:09,769 --> 00:13:07,800 here for us 284 00:13:12,530 --> 00:13:09,779 is you like to think that in Military 285 00:13:15,889 --> 00:13:12,540 and intelligence circles they regularly 286 00:13:19,129 --> 00:13:15,899 do an estimate of the situation and so 287 00:13:21,410 --> 00:13:19,139 when I argue with people about UFOs or 288 00:13:24,110 --> 00:13:21,420 our own MJ benais and I like to go at it 289 00:13:27,530 --> 00:13:24,120 from time to time privately my thing is 290 00:13:29,750 --> 00:13:27,540 always where's a military estimate on 291 00:13:32,030 --> 00:13:29,760 say for instance the Tic Tac incident 292 00:13:34,310 --> 00:13:32,040 because your options there are very 293 00:13:37,610 --> 00:13:34,320 limited either the pilots are making it 294 00:13:40,430 --> 00:13:37,620 up they hallucinated or they saw exactly 295 00:13:42,230 --> 00:13:40,440 what they described they saw and we can 296 00:13:43,490 --> 00:13:42,240 get into that later as Mike has told me 297 00:13:45,530 --> 00:13:43,500 he's heard there might even be some 298 00:13:46,790 --> 00:13:45,540 better incidents than that incident from 299 00:13:49,069 --> 00:13:46,800 some inside people I don't know if he's 300 00:13:51,410 --> 00:13:49,079 allowed to talk about that but 301 00:13:53,269 --> 00:13:51,420 um my that I think that's the 302 00:13:55,810 --> 00:13:53,279 frustration we're at is we're at the 303 00:13:58,430 --> 00:13:55,820 point where we want to hear the military 304 00:14:00,650 --> 00:13:58,440 uh put their money where their mouth is 305 00:14:03,230 --> 00:14:00,660 and give us an estimate of the situation 306 00:14:05,389 --> 00:14:03,240 say this is what we've looked at these 307 00:14:08,210 --> 00:14:05,399 are the unknowns this is what we think 308 00:14:10,129 --> 00:14:08,220 is the best answer for the unknowns and 309 00:14:12,590 --> 00:14:10,139 we're still just kind of getting it oh 310 00:14:13,670 --> 00:14:12,600 you know in the first report it was I 311 00:14:15,829 --> 00:14:13,680 don't know 312 00:14:18,290 --> 00:14:15,839 100 something or whatever and they had 313 00:14:20,690 --> 00:14:18,300 21 that had anomalous white 314 00:14:23,750 --> 00:14:20,700 characteristics or whatever and in this 315 00:14:25,910 --> 00:14:23,760 one it's like 47 of the cases were 316 00:14:29,329 --> 00:14:25,920 completely unidentified and the ones 317 00:14:31,310 --> 00:14:29,339 they did identify were characterized as 318 00:14:34,250 --> 00:14:31,320 a balloon or balloon-like objects 319 00:14:36,829 --> 00:14:34,260 meaning not identified but just now we 320 00:14:38,329 --> 00:14:36,839 think that's the best bet so 321 00:14:42,170 --> 00:14:38,339 um I think that's the frustration the 322 00:14:45,189 --> 00:14:42,180 one other point I would add to that is 323 00:14:48,530 --> 00:14:45,199 we want to know shapes they're seeing 324 00:14:50,329 --> 00:14:48,540 trajectories are we seeing video are we 325 00:14:52,629 --> 00:14:50,339 getting pictures how are you 326 00:14:55,069 --> 00:14:52,639 characterizing a balloon are these all 327 00:14:56,990 --> 00:14:55,079 anecdotal stories from pilots and you're 328 00:14:59,329 --> 00:14:57,000 just reading the text and going ah that 329 00:15:01,310 --> 00:14:59,339 sounds like a balloon I don't think so I 330 00:15:04,129 --> 00:15:01,320 think we're looking at sensor data photo 331 00:15:06,710 --> 00:15:04,139 data video data so I think that's the 332 00:15:09,350 --> 00:15:06,720 frustration is the public is ready to 333 00:15:11,509 --> 00:15:09,360 whatever read actions whatever security 334 00:15:13,250 --> 00:15:11,519 measures you have to take if you got 335 00:15:14,810 --> 00:15:13,260 some cool pictures some cool video or 336 00:15:17,329 --> 00:15:14,820 some cool sensor data I think it's about 337 00:15:19,610 --> 00:15:17,339 time to start sharing that stuff and I 338 00:15:21,050 --> 00:15:19,620 think if that doesn't show up in the 339 00:15:23,629 --> 00:15:21,060 next report I think that's where you're 340 00:15:26,629 --> 00:15:23,639 going to start really seeing uh some 341 00:15:28,430 --> 00:15:26,639 back backlash and blowback uh maybe 342 00:15:31,189 --> 00:15:28,440 hopefully even from members of Congress 343 00:15:33,710 --> 00:15:31,199 who are saying we need to see that stuff 344 00:15:36,110 --> 00:15:33,720 absolutely man I'm looking at it as a 345 00:15:38,629 --> 00:15:36,120 baseball you know the pitcher and the 346 00:15:39,889 --> 00:15:38,639 better we're on strike two right now in 347 00:15:42,530 --> 00:15:39,899 my opinion 348 00:15:44,750 --> 00:15:42,540 um honestly like not a single case was 349 00:15:46,430 --> 00:15:44,760 brought up in this report 350 00:15:48,410 --> 00:15:46,440 um again you you bring up so many good 351 00:15:50,509 --> 00:15:48,420 points like the fact that we don't know 352 00:15:51,889 --> 00:15:50,519 what sensors they're using uh that's for 353 00:15:54,170 --> 00:15:51,899 a reason most of them are still 354 00:15:55,970 --> 00:15:54,180 classified we don't want to know the 355 00:15:58,730 --> 00:15:55,980 capabilities of them where exactly 356 00:15:59,689 --> 00:15:58,740 they're located like we understand that 357 00:16:01,790 --> 00:15:59,699 um I think a lot of people are 358 00:16:04,069 --> 00:16:01,800 frustrated that there wasn't a single 359 00:16:06,650 --> 00:16:04,079 specific case pointed out in this and 360 00:16:09,350 --> 00:16:06,660 like you said this was kind of um and 361 00:16:13,370 --> 00:16:09,360 and Micah you too this was almost less 362 00:16:16,189 --> 00:16:13,380 than the other report uh but we have to 363 00:16:19,370 --> 00:16:16,199 keep in mind that we have new people uh 364 00:16:21,230 --> 00:16:19,380 within this group that is now taking the 365 00:16:23,210 --> 00:16:21,240 reins and looking at this thing so this 366 00:16:25,730 --> 00:16:23,220 is kind of their 367 00:16:27,530 --> 00:16:25,740 um their sales pitch of what they're 368 00:16:29,090 --> 00:16:27,540 doing what they're going to be doing and 369 00:16:32,030 --> 00:16:29,100 I do want to bring up a little later 370 00:16:36,170 --> 00:16:32,040 with you guys this um Talk that Sean 371 00:16:38,810 --> 00:16:36,180 Kirkpatrick gave recently about how they 372 00:16:41,090 --> 00:16:38,820 did collect some of this data and how 373 00:16:43,550 --> 00:16:41,100 they are determining you know what some 374 00:16:46,069 --> 00:16:43,560 of these things might be balloons or as 375 00:16:47,990 --> 00:16:46,079 they said balloon-like entities which I 376 00:16:49,430 --> 00:16:48,000 have no idea what that means um would 377 00:16:53,810 --> 00:16:49,440 love to get you guys thoughts on that 378 00:16:56,269 --> 00:16:53,820 but let's Circle back now what was 379 00:16:58,370 --> 00:16:56,279 positive about this thing Micah let's 380 00:17:00,170 --> 00:16:58,380 start with you buddy what stood out to 381 00:17:02,810 --> 00:17:00,180 you first and foremost when you went 382 00:17:05,210 --> 00:17:02,820 through this thing and you got past you 383 00:17:06,949 --> 00:17:05,220 know the table of contents and the 384 00:17:10,250 --> 00:17:06,959 appendix which was bigger than the 385 00:17:11,809 --> 00:17:10,260 actual report but uh yeah give it to us 386 00:17:15,350 --> 00:17:11,819 man what did you find positive about 387 00:17:18,949 --> 00:17:15,360 this thing well despite being 12 pages 388 00:17:20,630 --> 00:17:18,959 in total length uh the blank space at 389 00:17:22,490 --> 00:17:20,640 the bottom of several of the sections 390 00:17:24,350 --> 00:17:22,500 and of course the extended appendix is 391 00:17:25,850 --> 00:17:24,360 at the back uh you know helps to account 392 00:17:28,309 --> 00:17:25,860 for how quickly we're able to get our 393 00:17:30,710 --> 00:17:28,319 article out there at the debrief.org 394 00:17:32,210 --> 00:17:30,720 um and to Chris's Point yes every time 395 00:17:33,950 --> 00:17:32,220 we get our article out very quickly 396 00:17:35,570 --> 00:17:33,960 there are people who say huh this is 397 00:17:37,970 --> 00:17:35,580 suspicious is somebody feeding you the 398 00:17:40,970 --> 00:17:37,980 information is there an embargo oh look 399 00:17:42,590 --> 00:17:40,980 let me be very clear about this when the 400 00:17:44,870 --> 00:17:42,600 report was 401 00:17:47,029 --> 00:17:44,880 imminent we expected it on its due date 402 00:17:49,190 --> 00:17:47,039 of course a lot of organizations in fact 403 00:17:50,810 --> 00:17:49,200 you'll note the New York Times The Daily 404 00:17:52,070 --> 00:17:50,820 Mail and several others they didn't wait 405 00:17:53,330 --> 00:17:52,080 for the report to come out they went 406 00:17:55,970 --> 00:17:53,340 ahead and they published what they had 407 00:17:59,090 --> 00:17:55,980 the debrief's made an editorial decision 408 00:18:01,010 --> 00:17:59,100 not to publish speculation before the 409 00:18:02,390 --> 00:18:01,020 report actually had been delivered but 410 00:18:04,310 --> 00:18:02,400 what we did was what all these other 411 00:18:06,169 --> 00:18:04,320 organizations did we went and we got 412 00:18:07,490 --> 00:18:06,179 information we spoke to people I reached 413 00:18:10,490 --> 00:18:07,500 out to the Pentagon I reached out to the 414 00:18:12,230 --> 00:18:10,500 odni we collected as much information as 415 00:18:13,850 --> 00:18:12,240 we possibly could in advance and then 416 00:18:15,049 --> 00:18:13,860 the moment that report dropped we had 417 00:18:16,549 --> 00:18:15,059 everything else that we needed which 418 00:18:18,010 --> 00:18:16,559 sadly and for those who've read the 419 00:18:20,330 --> 00:18:18,020 report now you know you'll now know 420 00:18:21,890 --> 00:18:20,340 there's very little else told in that 421 00:18:23,750 --> 00:18:21,900 report that we hadn't already learned 422 00:18:25,610 --> 00:18:23,760 from the media Roundtable that had been 423 00:18:27,950 --> 00:18:25,620 held beforehand press statements 424 00:18:30,049 --> 00:18:27,960 released by The Pentagon and independent 425 00:18:31,730 --> 00:18:30,059 queries that we had made to these 426 00:18:33,529 --> 00:18:31,740 agencies ourselves so I mean by the time 427 00:18:34,850 --> 00:18:33,539 the report dropped we were pretty much 428 00:18:36,110 --> 00:18:34,860 prepared to be able to get this article 429 00:18:38,270 --> 00:18:36,120 out I'm very proud to be able to say 430 00:18:40,010 --> 00:18:38,280 debrief did so approximately eight 431 00:18:42,890 --> 00:18:40,020 minutes before any other mainstream 432 00:18:45,710 --> 00:18:42,900 media did so I'm glad to have been as as 433 00:18:47,570 --> 00:18:45,720 usual the first on the on that uh effort 434 00:18:49,789 --> 00:18:47,580 and and proud of course to be reporting 435 00:18:52,490 --> 00:18:49,799 it here to you uh Ryan on your 300s now 436 00:18:55,190 --> 00:18:52,500 that's uh as far as what I see uh that's 437 00:18:56,510 --> 00:18:55,200 uh positive about this report yes it 438 00:18:58,669 --> 00:18:56,520 doesn't have all the information that 439 00:19:00,409 --> 00:18:58,679 everybody hoped to see what it does 440 00:19:01,730 --> 00:19:00,419 contain though is some very important 441 00:19:03,169 --> 00:19:01,740 data let's go ahead and just get right 442 00:19:04,789 --> 00:19:03,179 into some of the jargon that appears in 443 00:19:07,730 --> 00:19:04,799 the report since its establishment in 444 00:19:09,830 --> 00:19:07,740 July 2022 arrow and I'm quoting from the 445 00:19:12,110 --> 00:19:09,840 report here has formulated and started 446 00:19:15,289 --> 00:19:12,120 to leverage a robust analytic process 447 00:19:17,270 --> 00:19:15,299 against identified UAP reporting once 448 00:19:18,770 --> 00:19:17,280 completed arrows final analytic findings 449 00:19:21,169 --> 00:19:18,780 will be available in their quarterly 450 00:19:24,049 --> 00:19:21,179 reports to policy makers now keep in 451 00:19:27,370 --> 00:19:24,059 mind as per what was legislated in the 452 00:19:29,510 --> 00:19:27,380 2022 National Defense authorization act 453 00:19:31,250 --> 00:19:29,520 these quarterly reports that go to 454 00:19:33,590 --> 00:19:31,260 policy makers are not the same thing as 455 00:19:37,310 --> 00:19:33,600 the annual reports that we see which are 456 00:19:39,169 --> 00:19:37,320 actually a unclassified summary based on 457 00:19:41,630 --> 00:19:39,179 a classified briefing that is sent to 458 00:19:43,250 --> 00:19:41,640 Congress uh one of the earliest 459 00:19:44,510 --> 00:19:43,260 indications that this report was going 460 00:19:46,490 --> 00:19:44,520 to be late had been the fact that we 461 00:19:48,590 --> 00:19:46,500 were already asking about the report 462 00:19:50,270 --> 00:19:48,600 before its delivery and most of the 463 00:19:51,710 --> 00:19:50,280 sources that the dod were telling us not 464 00:19:53,150 --> 00:19:51,720 that well we can't comment on that but 465 00:19:54,409 --> 00:19:53,160 they were saying explicitly we can't 466 00:19:56,330 --> 00:19:54,419 comment on that before it's been 467 00:19:57,770 --> 00:19:56,340 delivered to Congress and so we were 468 00:20:00,230 --> 00:19:57,780 like okay you mean to tell us that 469 00:20:02,810 --> 00:20:00,240 Congress hasn't even seen this yet and 470 00:20:04,370 --> 00:20:02,820 then once the actual report went up you 471 00:20:06,230 --> 00:20:04,380 may have noticed many of you guys out 472 00:20:07,730 --> 00:20:06,240 there who follow this like we do may 473 00:20:09,470 --> 00:20:07,740 have noticed that the statement from Pat 474 00:20:11,750 --> 00:20:09,480 Ryder I believe mentioned that this 475 00:20:13,370 --> 00:20:11,760 report had only been recently delivered 476 00:20:15,470 --> 00:20:13,380 to Congress and now the Sun classified 477 00:20:17,029 --> 00:20:15,480 summary uh to the public so I mean I I 478 00:20:19,070 --> 00:20:17,039 presume that what Congress has seen 479 00:20:21,470 --> 00:20:19,080 although maybe a little more it contains 480 00:20:23,510 --> 00:20:21,480 the classified information but that was 481 00:20:25,310 --> 00:20:23,520 probably only fairly recently released 482 00:20:26,810 --> 00:20:25,320 although weeks ago we had been told that 483 00:20:28,130 --> 00:20:26,820 it had been in the hands of higher 484 00:20:30,289 --> 00:20:28,140 leadership so it's still a little 485 00:20:32,510 --> 00:20:30,299 unclear at this point but getting down 486 00:20:33,950 --> 00:20:32,520 to the uh the details they note that 487 00:20:36,950 --> 00:20:33,960 Arrow's initial analysis and 488 00:20:39,770 --> 00:20:36,960 characterization of the 366 newly 489 00:20:42,409 --> 00:20:39,780 identified reports informed by a 490 00:20:44,510 --> 00:20:42,419 multi-agency process judged more than 491 00:20:46,010 --> 00:20:44,520 half as exhibiting unremarkable 492 00:20:47,810 --> 00:20:46,020 characteristics we'll get into that in a 493 00:20:51,529 --> 00:20:47,820 moment but note that figure right there 494 00:20:53,770 --> 00:20:51,539 366 newly identified reports okay as 495 00:20:57,650 --> 00:20:53,780 they clarify in the previous paragraph 496 00:21:00,289 --> 00:20:57,660 these 366 additional reports when 497 00:21:02,029 --> 00:21:00,299 combined with the 144 reports identified 498 00:21:04,370 --> 00:21:02,039 in the preliminary assessment that of 499 00:21:07,130 --> 00:21:04,380 course is the June 2021 report the 500 00:21:09,950 --> 00:21:07,140 initial odni document they say bring the 501 00:21:12,169 --> 00:21:09,960 total UAP reports cataloged to date to 502 00:21:14,270 --> 00:21:12,179 510 now keep that number in mind because 503 00:21:16,669 --> 00:21:14,280 most of the media as usual has been 504 00:21:18,350 --> 00:21:16,679 fixated on that and of course Dr 505 00:21:20,210 --> 00:21:18,360 Kirkpatrick had told us during the media 506 00:21:21,830 --> 00:21:20,220 briefing a few weeks back that it wasn't 507 00:21:23,450 --> 00:21:21,840 a significant number greater than the 508 00:21:25,610 --> 00:21:23,460 number that had been cited by Scott Bray 509 00:21:29,750 --> 00:21:25,620 during the Congressional hearings that 510 00:21:31,850 --> 00:21:29,760 we saw earlier in 2020 2022 that is but 511 00:21:34,850 --> 00:21:31,860 indeed they had they said around 400 at 512 00:21:36,890 --> 00:21:34,860 that point now we're up to 510. these of 513 00:21:39,110 --> 00:21:36,900 course spanning about a 17-year period 514 00:21:41,270 --> 00:21:39,120 so some of these are historical reports 515 00:21:43,490 --> 00:21:41,280 from recent history some having been 516 00:21:44,930 --> 00:21:43,500 collected since 2019 when the Navy and 517 00:21:47,090 --> 00:21:44,940 the Air Force began to update its 518 00:21:50,870 --> 00:21:47,100 official reporting procedures but in any 519 00:21:53,690 --> 00:21:50,880 case we have 510 reports okay 520 00:21:56,149 --> 00:21:53,700 26 of which they say and now we're only 521 00:21:58,370 --> 00:21:56,159 talking about the 366 newly identified 522 00:22:00,649 --> 00:21:58,380 reports okay 26 of those were 523 00:22:04,310 --> 00:22:00,659 characterized as unmanned aerial systems 524 00:22:06,169 --> 00:22:04,320 uas or uas-like entities more on that in 525 00:22:08,630 --> 00:22:06,179 a moment because that terminology is 526 00:22:11,149 --> 00:22:08,640 very similar to the 163 characterized as 527 00:22:13,070 --> 00:22:11,159 balloon or balloon-like entities and 528 00:22:15,649 --> 00:22:13,080 then six attributed to clutter now of 529 00:22:18,350 --> 00:22:15,659 course we have to say that I mean even 530 00:22:20,330 --> 00:22:18,360 if we've got that many right there okay 531 00:22:22,370 --> 00:22:20,340 this initial characterization they note 532 00:22:23,690 --> 00:22:22,380 better enables Aero and odni to 533 00:22:26,470 --> 00:22:23,700 efficiently and effectively leverage 534 00:22:29,570 --> 00:22:26,480 resources against the remaining 535 00:22:32,330 --> 00:22:29,580 171 uncharacterized and unattributed UAP 536 00:22:35,270 --> 00:22:32,340 reports you know 537 00:22:37,130 --> 00:22:35,280 let's break this down uas like entities 538 00:22:39,350 --> 00:22:37,140 balloon-like entities 539 00:22:41,690 --> 00:22:39,360 it sounds to me like if they had just 540 00:22:43,730 --> 00:22:41,700 said uas like entities or balloon-like 541 00:22:45,230 --> 00:22:43,740 entities they'd be talking about you 542 00:22:47,289 --> 00:22:45,240 know unmanned aircraft systems or 543 00:22:50,510 --> 00:22:47,299 balloons but the fact that they say 544 00:22:52,070 --> 00:22:50,520 unmanned aircraft systems or uas-like 545 00:22:53,029 --> 00:22:52,080 entities and balloons or balloon-like 546 00:22:54,830 --> 00:22:53,039 entities 547 00:22:56,690 --> 00:22:54,840 suggests to me that there were some 548 00:22:58,549 --> 00:22:56,700 objects that were observed that may have 549 00:22:59,810 --> 00:22:58,559 had characteristics similar for instance 550 00:23:01,730 --> 00:22:59,820 to balloons but which they could not 551 00:23:04,130 --> 00:23:01,740 conclusively say were actually balloons 552 00:23:05,510 --> 00:23:04,140 think for instance if the USS Omaha 553 00:23:07,789 --> 00:23:05,520 footage of this object that appears to 554 00:23:10,190 --> 00:23:07,799 be descending and then it appears to 555 00:23:12,770 --> 00:23:10,200 actually go beneath the surface of the 556 00:23:13,909 --> 00:23:12,780 water and continue its descent unlike a 557 00:23:15,950 --> 00:23:13,919 balloon which would of course come to 558 00:23:18,529 --> 00:23:15,960 rest on the water surface we would 559 00:23:21,250 --> 00:23:18,539 assume so I'm I'm wondering if again 560 00:23:23,810 --> 00:23:21,260 some of the observed behaviors were best 561 00:23:26,090 --> 00:23:23,820 categorized as in those instances 562 00:23:28,130 --> 00:23:26,100 balloon-like whether or not they could 563 00:23:29,510 --> 00:23:28,140 say they were in fact balloons that much 564 00:23:30,590 --> 00:23:29,520 seems evident in the wording the report 565 00:23:32,409 --> 00:23:30,600 where they note that initial 566 00:23:35,450 --> 00:23:32,419 characterization does not mean 567 00:23:37,130 --> 00:23:35,460 positively resolved or unidentified 568 00:23:38,870 --> 00:23:37,140 no they say instead this initial 569 00:23:41,149 --> 00:23:38,880 characterization only better enables 570 00:23:42,529 --> 00:23:41,159 arrow and ODI and I to efficiently and 571 00:23:44,450 --> 00:23:42,539 effectively leverage resources against 572 00:23:45,430 --> 00:23:44,460 the remaining and again I'll emphasize 573 00:23:48,590 --> 00:23:45,440 this number 574 00:23:50,750 --> 00:23:48,600 171 uncharacterized and unattributed UAP 575 00:23:51,770 --> 00:23:50,760 reports now here's the kicker this is 576 00:23:54,230 --> 00:23:51,780 the most significant part everybody 577 00:23:56,870 --> 00:23:54,240 listen up some of these uncharacterized 578 00:23:59,270 --> 00:23:56,880 UAP appear to have demonstrated unusual 579 00:24:01,370 --> 00:23:59,280 flight characteristics or performance 580 00:24:02,510 --> 00:24:01,380 capabilities and require further 581 00:24:04,970 --> 00:24:02,520 analysis 582 00:24:07,010 --> 00:24:04,980 now look that is much more 583 00:24:08,810 --> 00:24:07,020 conservatively worded than what we saw 584 00:24:10,970 --> 00:24:08,820 in the 2021 report that's talking about 585 00:24:13,430 --> 00:24:10,980 the potential for science advancements 586 00:24:15,470 --> 00:24:13,440 needed before we can actually determine 587 00:24:17,870 --> 00:24:15,480 what some of these things are but it's 588 00:24:20,090 --> 00:24:17,880 essentially saying in you know far fewer 589 00:24:21,770 --> 00:24:20,100 words the same thing we don't know what 590 00:24:23,930 --> 00:24:21,780 some of these things are some of these 591 00:24:25,190 --> 00:24:23,940 UAP may have demonstrated unusual flight 592 00:24:26,630 --> 00:24:25,200 characteristics or performance 593 00:24:29,149 --> 00:24:26,640 capabilities and require further 594 00:24:30,529 --> 00:24:29,159 analysis take that for what it is but 595 00:24:31,970 --> 00:24:30,539 when we go back and we look at the 596 00:24:34,250 --> 00:24:31,980 pre-reporting by the New York Times 597 00:24:36,049 --> 00:24:34,260 Julian Barnes did a very controversial 598 00:24:38,029 --> 00:24:36,059 article where he had said in advance of 599 00:24:39,770 --> 00:24:38,039 this report coming out based on inside 600 00:24:42,110 --> 00:24:39,780 sources that he wasn't able to name they 601 00:24:43,789 --> 00:24:42,120 all spoke on background but he's 602 00:24:46,430 --> 00:24:43,799 essentially telling the public you know 603 00:24:48,770 --> 00:24:46,440 most of this stuff is aerial trash 604 00:24:50,750 --> 00:24:48,780 weather balloons and other things like 605 00:24:52,250 --> 00:24:50,760 this based on the numbers I'm seeing in 606 00:24:55,070 --> 00:24:52,260 this report I think it might be a bit of 607 00:24:57,470 --> 00:24:55,080 a stretch just a bit to say that most of 608 00:24:59,690 --> 00:24:57,480 these objects are trash or weather 609 00:25:01,730 --> 00:24:59,700 balloons and those terms themselves 610 00:25:03,529 --> 00:25:01,740 pejoratives that have been obviously 611 00:25:05,510 --> 00:25:03,539 used because of the kind of I think I 612 00:25:08,390 --> 00:25:05,520 that they were going to arouse among the 613 00:25:10,190 --> 00:25:08,400 UAP Community having known those to have 614 00:25:11,810 --> 00:25:10,200 been put forward as proposed 615 00:25:13,190 --> 00:25:11,820 explanations and often infamously 616 00:25:16,430 --> 00:25:13,200 throughout the history of this subject 617 00:25:18,110 --> 00:25:16,440 in the study of it so my take on this 618 00:25:19,909 --> 00:25:18,120 report is although it says far less and 619 00:25:21,289 --> 00:25:19,919 it's worded very differently and this is 620 00:25:24,110 --> 00:25:21,299 obviously reflective of the new 621 00:25:26,090 --> 00:25:24,120 leadership of Arrow as opposed to those 622 00:25:27,890 --> 00:25:26,100 who were heading the UAP task force who 623 00:25:29,269 --> 00:25:27,900 produced the last report nonetheless 624 00:25:31,310 --> 00:25:29,279 they're saying the same thing we may 625 00:25:32,810 --> 00:25:31,320 have whittled down some of the cases and 626 00:25:35,750 --> 00:25:32,820 now we're fairly confident that some of 627 00:25:37,370 --> 00:25:35,760 these things uh at least fall into 628 00:25:40,669 --> 00:25:37,380 categories where we can characterize 629 00:25:41,390 --> 00:25:40,679 them as being like known objects but 630 00:25:43,070 --> 00:25:41,400 that doesn't mean that they're 631 00:25:45,590 --> 00:25:43,080 identified but there are still a good 632 00:25:47,890 --> 00:25:45,600 number 171 that remain uncharacterized 633 00:25:50,090 --> 00:25:47,900 and which may have 634 00:25:51,409 --> 00:25:50,100 unusual flight characteristics or 635 00:25:53,210 --> 00:25:51,419 performance capabilities and require 636 00:25:55,010 --> 00:25:53,220 further analysis ladies and gentlemen 637 00:25:57,769 --> 00:25:55,020 back in the day we used to call those 638 00:25:59,149 --> 00:25:57,779 UFOs okay unidentified flying objects 639 00:26:01,250 --> 00:25:59,159 now a few things that they're saying 640 00:26:02,870 --> 00:26:01,260 that they don't find uh it's not 641 00:26:04,730 --> 00:26:02,880 explicitly stated here in the report but 642 00:26:07,310 --> 00:26:04,740 Ronald had said during the media 643 00:26:09,649 --> 00:26:07,320 Roundtable recently we haven't had a 644 00:26:11,870 --> 00:26:09,659 whole lot of data that strongly suggests 645 00:26:14,090 --> 00:26:11,880 the alleged transmedium capabilities of 646 00:26:16,070 --> 00:26:14,100 a lot of these objects perhaps we are 647 00:26:17,690 --> 00:26:16,080 still awaiting further data on that 648 00:26:19,250 --> 00:26:17,700 point but they do say in this new report 649 00:26:21,890 --> 00:26:19,260 that they don't have any data that seems 650 00:26:24,710 --> 00:26:21,900 to point to health problems associated 651 00:26:26,930 --> 00:26:24,720 with UAP encounters so a lot of people 652 00:26:29,210 --> 00:26:26,940 are upset about that but again keep in 653 00:26:30,470 --> 00:26:29,220 mind I don't think that the authors of 654 00:26:32,630 --> 00:26:30,480 this report were looking at the cash 655 00:26:34,370 --> 00:26:32,640 Landrum incident right I don't think 656 00:26:36,710 --> 00:26:34,380 that the the authors of this report were 657 00:26:38,210 --> 00:26:36,720 looking at Famous UFO cases from 658 00:26:39,649 --> 00:26:38,220 literature that's already available to 659 00:26:41,630 --> 00:26:39,659 civilian sources they're looking at 660 00:26:43,310 --> 00:26:41,640 government data and most of these do 661 00:26:44,450 --> 00:26:43,320 involve like you said Ryan at the outset 662 00:26:46,250 --> 00:26:44,460 and as Chris was pointing out 663 00:26:48,890 --> 00:26:46,260 information that's been collected with 664 00:26:50,570 --> 00:26:48,900 our Advanced sensor systems and 665 00:26:52,130 --> 00:26:50,580 Technologies currently in use by the US 666 00:26:54,409 --> 00:26:52,140 military which we can discuss some of 667 00:26:55,789 --> 00:26:54,419 those sensor systems a bit more in depth 668 00:26:57,049 --> 00:26:55,799 later but for the time being I'm going 669 00:26:57,909 --> 00:26:57,059 to put a cap on it right there and just 670 00:26:59,690 --> 00:26:57,919 say 671 00:27:01,370 --> 00:26:59,700 conservatively worded though they are 672 00:27:02,990 --> 00:27:01,380 the results of this report are no less 673 00:27:04,669 --> 00:27:03,000 significant and they should be taken as 674 00:27:07,070 --> 00:27:04,679 such 675 00:27:08,690 --> 00:27:07,080 fair enough I love that 676 00:27:10,669 --> 00:27:08,700 um well you did bring up you know the 677 00:27:11,990 --> 00:27:10,679 health risk thing I I found it 678 00:27:13,310 --> 00:27:12,000 interesting you know this Pentagon 679 00:27:16,190 --> 00:27:13,320 briefing and Chris I want to get your 680 00:27:17,870 --> 00:27:16,200 thoughts after I play this brief video 681 00:27:19,789 --> 00:27:17,880 um this is from the Press briefing when 682 00:27:22,269 --> 00:27:19,799 the journalist I want to get her name 683 00:27:25,610 --> 00:27:22,279 right because I'm so happy 684 00:27:28,250 --> 00:27:25,620 there we go Brandi Vincent uh she 685 00:27:30,289 --> 00:27:28,260 questioned uh Brigadier General Pat 686 00:27:33,590 --> 00:27:30,299 Ryder who's the press secretary right 687 00:27:36,289 --> 00:27:33,600 now at the Pentagon on um on this very 688 00:27:38,690 --> 00:27:36,299 heart of the report you know thank God 689 00:27:41,029 --> 00:27:38,700 she actually read it and like said whoa 690 00:27:42,350 --> 00:27:41,039 whoa whoa whoa what is this um so let's 691 00:27:44,029 --> 00:27:42,360 go ahead and play this video really 692 00:27:45,710 --> 00:27:44,039 quick and get you guys thoughts on the 693 00:27:49,250 --> 00:27:45,720 other side Court says that regarding 694 00:27:52,029 --> 00:27:49,260 health concerns so far no Encounters of 695 00:27:55,370 --> 00:27:52,039 UAB have been aligned with serious 696 00:27:57,590 --> 00:27:55,380 anomalous Health incidents Congress uh 697 00:27:59,269 --> 00:27:57,600 pushed you guys and mandated odni and 698 00:28:01,789 --> 00:27:59,279 the Pentagon to look into that which 699 00:28:03,830 --> 00:28:01,799 means there were reports from military 700 00:28:06,049 --> 00:28:03,840 aviators about anomalous Health 701 00:28:08,810 --> 00:28:06,059 incidents is there anything you guys can 702 00:28:11,510 --> 00:28:08,820 share about what those Health incidents 703 00:28:13,370 --> 00:28:11,520 ended up being if they were not UAP yeah 704 00:28:14,990 --> 00:28:13,380 I don't I don't have any information to 705 00:28:16,669 --> 00:28:15,000 provide I'd encourage you to take a look 706 00:28:19,310 --> 00:28:16,679 at the report I would say broadly 707 00:28:22,370 --> 00:28:19,320 speaking I think one of the key points 708 00:28:26,390 --> 00:28:22,380 in this report you know given given the 709 00:28:28,549 --> 00:28:26,400 potential uh Hazard that uaps do present 710 00:28:32,149 --> 00:28:28,559 notably there's been no reported 711 00:28:35,510 --> 00:28:32,159 collisions of of military aircraft or 712 00:28:37,430 --> 00:28:35,520 U.S aircraft rather and uaps but in 713 00:28:40,210 --> 00:28:37,440 terms of those specifics I'd I'd refer 714 00:28:44,510 --> 00:28:42,350 yeah so 715 00:28:45,529 --> 00:28:44,520 um I was one of those people Micah who 716 00:28:47,810 --> 00:28:45,539 actually was like are you kidding me 717 00:28:51,710 --> 00:28:47,820 what about like rendersham like that was 718 00:28:53,990 --> 00:28:51,720 a military UFO case where a person was 719 00:28:54,769 --> 00:28:54,000 directly physically affected by the 720 00:28:56,810 --> 00:28:54,779 event 721 00:28:58,909 --> 00:28:56,820 um but I think what he kind of points 722 00:29:01,490 --> 00:28:58,919 out here is we're talking about you know 723 00:29:05,750 --> 00:29:01,500 our Pilots having close calls up there 724 00:29:08,930 --> 00:29:05,760 or um having direct physical uh things 725 00:29:11,090 --> 00:29:08,940 happen when in contact with these things 726 00:29:13,850 --> 00:29:11,100 um so not so much these cases from the 727 00:29:16,669 --> 00:29:13,860 past you know the one you mentioned um 728 00:29:20,630 --> 00:29:16,679 and things like rendoshum so I kind of 729 00:29:22,490 --> 00:29:20,640 had to temper my uh my disdain for their 730 00:29:24,470 --> 00:29:22,500 response to that because there have been 731 00:29:25,490 --> 00:29:24,480 health effects by some of these UFO 732 00:29:27,190 --> 00:29:25,500 events well if I could just add 733 00:29:29,450 --> 00:29:27,200 something on that point 734 00:29:31,250 --> 00:29:29,460 briefly I I really I'd rather you you 735 00:29:33,830 --> 00:29:31,260 get Chris in here next but I will just 736 00:29:35,330 --> 00:29:33,840 add that my understanding is that the 737 00:29:37,370 --> 00:29:35,340 current batch of reports that were 738 00:29:40,330 --> 00:29:37,380 analyzed go back no further than 1994 739 00:29:43,010 --> 00:29:40,340 and so again rendelsham literally having 740 00:29:44,930 --> 00:29:43,020 occurred within like a 48-hour period of 741 00:29:47,269 --> 00:29:44,940 the Cash Land room incident you know two 742 00:29:48,889 --> 00:29:47,279 of the best known incidents allegedly 743 00:29:52,070 --> 00:29:48,899 involving health effects that Witnesses 744 00:29:54,649 --> 00:29:52,080 suffered it was well beyond the uh scope 745 00:29:57,350 --> 00:29:54,659 the area in which the cases currently 746 00:29:58,909 --> 00:29:57,360 are being investigated but again with 747 00:30:00,950 --> 00:29:58,919 the actual signing into law of the 748 00:30:03,350 --> 00:30:00,960 fiscal year 2023 National Defense 749 00:30:05,029 --> 00:30:03,360 authorization act uh that historical 750 00:30:07,190 --> 00:30:05,039 review period has now been extended all 751 00:30:08,630 --> 00:30:07,200 the way back to 1949 as was outlined 752 00:30:10,070 --> 00:30:08,640 recently in the New York Times in an 753 00:30:12,710 --> 00:30:10,080 article that referenced Jacques valet 754 00:30:14,870 --> 00:30:12,720 and his work and again so we we may yet 755 00:30:18,350 --> 00:30:14,880 see that but within the current purview 756 00:30:20,269 --> 00:30:18,360 of its research this current review The 757 00:30:21,830 --> 00:30:20,279 Arrow has conducted its own preliminary 758 00:30:23,330 --> 00:30:21,840 assessment following the preliminary 759 00:30:25,010 --> 00:30:23,340 assessment by the last team that was 760 00:30:26,210 --> 00:30:25,020 assigned to look at this stuff they 761 00:30:29,029 --> 00:30:26,220 probably didn't have historical 762 00:30:30,289 --> 00:30:29,039 documents and data related to incidents 763 00:30:32,110 --> 00:30:30,299 like randallstream because they were 764 00:30:35,230 --> 00:30:32,120 just from an earlier period 765 00:30:37,850 --> 00:30:35,240 exactly and you know Congress pushed 766 00:30:40,190 --> 00:30:37,860 Moultrie at this Congressional hearing 767 00:30:42,769 --> 00:30:40,200 about Maelstrom as well the Maelstrom 768 00:30:44,630 --> 00:30:42,779 UFO incident and they said we don't have 769 00:30:47,570 --> 00:30:44,640 anything on that and now look at what's 770 00:30:51,230 --> 00:30:47,580 happening we have Robert Salas uh going 771 00:30:53,450 --> 00:30:51,240 to testify to Arrow about the event so 772 00:30:55,549 --> 00:30:53,460 they are being proactive which I do 773 00:30:57,889 --> 00:30:55,559 appreciate we are seeing a proactive 774 00:30:59,750 --> 00:30:57,899 approach to this and a retroactive 775 00:31:01,549 --> 00:30:59,760 approach which I think is really 776 00:31:03,529 --> 00:31:01,559 interesting as well but Chris we've left 777 00:31:05,330 --> 00:31:03,539 you hanging too long buddy 778 00:31:07,549 --> 00:31:05,340 um tell us what do you what what 779 00:31:10,070 --> 00:31:07,559 positives did you take out of this 780 00:31:12,470 --> 00:31:10,080 report did anything stand out to you of 781 00:31:14,350 --> 00:31:12,480 like oh wow okay like we're we're 782 00:31:17,029 --> 00:31:14,360 getting something here 783 00:31:19,490 --> 00:31:17,039 uh I I think my reaction was probably 784 00:31:22,010 --> 00:31:19,500 closer to everyone else's where there 785 00:31:23,810 --> 00:31:22,020 wasn't really any Headway made uh 786 00:31:26,149 --> 00:31:23,820 compared to the last report that the 787 00:31:29,389 --> 00:31:26,159 maybe the two things that I'm at least 788 00:31:32,389 --> 00:31:29,399 happy to not see uh are some of the 789 00:31:34,310 --> 00:31:32,399 Lamer explanations that accompanied UFO 790 00:31:36,769 --> 00:31:34,320 investigations by the military in the 791 00:31:39,289 --> 00:31:36,779 20th century so for instance we didn't 792 00:31:40,930 --> 00:31:39,299 hear anything about swamp gas we didn't 793 00:31:43,250 --> 00:31:40,940 hear anything about astronomical 794 00:31:48,970 --> 00:31:43,260 misidentifications and there's a lot of 795 00:31:55,370 --> 00:31:52,549 oh looks like we lost him that's a very 796 00:31:57,289 --> 00:31:55,380 uh Charming screen grab I mean I'm just 797 00:31:59,450 --> 00:31:57,299 gonna keep it up there guys look at that 798 00:32:02,149 --> 00:31:59,460 mug yeah just just leave it up there for 799 00:32:04,909 --> 00:32:02,159 the rest of the other program oh my gosh 800 00:32:06,230 --> 00:32:04,919 poor Chris um Chris 801 00:32:08,630 --> 00:32:06,240 um sign out buddy if you could still 802 00:32:10,370 --> 00:32:08,640 hear us and sign back in oh there he is 803 00:32:11,990 --> 00:32:10,380 I don't know what's going on with my 804 00:32:13,789 --> 00:32:12,000 internet today because I am home alone 805 00:32:15,830 --> 00:32:13,799 so I don't know what is going on the 806 00:32:17,870 --> 00:32:15,840 second time I've been dropped out you're 807 00:32:20,090 --> 00:32:17,880 home alone that means the wet Bandits 808 00:32:23,389 --> 00:32:20,100 are uh taking your Wi-Fi out man yes 809 00:32:25,730 --> 00:32:23,399 exactly yeah um so yeah I I think the 810 00:32:28,549 --> 00:32:25,740 the the thing that I found most ex you 811 00:32:29,870 --> 00:32:28,559 know if I had to find the positive which 812 00:32:31,850 --> 00:32:29,880 I don't know that there were a ton of 813 00:32:33,289 --> 00:32:31,860 them was that uh we're at least 814 00:32:36,110 --> 00:32:33,299 acknowledging these are real things 815 00:32:38,450 --> 00:32:36,120 we're not we're not blaming it on uh 816 00:32:41,090 --> 00:32:38,460 misidentification the planet Venus or 817 00:32:43,490 --> 00:32:41,100 the misidentification of a star or a 818 00:32:46,669 --> 00:32:43,500 constellation uh we're not getting swamp 819 00:32:48,649 --> 00:32:46,679 gas so uh even if we're getting balloons 820 00:32:51,409 --> 00:32:48,659 or balloon-like entities at least 821 00:32:53,330 --> 00:32:51,419 they're still things you know so and I 822 00:32:56,690 --> 00:32:53,340 think those of us that are the old 823 00:32:59,570 --> 00:32:56,700 school UFO guys and prefer UFO over UAP 824 00:33:01,850 --> 00:32:59,580 because we feel that a lot of pilots and 825 00:33:04,430 --> 00:33:01,860 a lot of people see physical objects 826 00:33:08,330 --> 00:33:04,440 physical things even if they're not nuts 827 00:33:10,549 --> 00:33:08,340 and bolts craft so I would I I guess I 828 00:33:12,710 --> 00:33:10,559 would give a thumbs up to that I would 829 00:33:14,870 --> 00:33:12,720 also say I like the seriousness of the 830 00:33:17,930 --> 00:33:14,880 tone of the report so even though it's 831 00:33:21,950 --> 00:33:17,940 very dry I'd rather have a dry report 832 00:33:25,009 --> 00:33:21,960 than kind of a dismissive uh tone and 833 00:33:26,990 --> 00:33:25,019 language so I guess those are benefits 834 00:33:29,269 --> 00:33:27,000 um you know as far as the health 835 00:33:31,970 --> 00:33:29,279 concerns thing let me ask you this 836 00:33:33,289 --> 00:33:31,980 question if you're Ryan Graves or you're 837 00:33:37,490 --> 00:33:33,299 one of these pilots and you're having 838 00:33:40,070 --> 00:33:37,500 near misses up in the sky and you fly 839 00:33:42,169 --> 00:33:40,080 the most powerful most modern most 840 00:33:44,330 --> 00:33:42,179 advanced aircraft in the world and 841 00:33:47,149 --> 00:33:44,340 things are performing Maneuvers around 842 00:33:49,610 --> 00:33:47,159 you what sort of psychological impact 843 00:33:52,549 --> 00:33:49,620 does that have Ryan Graves talks about 844 00:33:54,649 --> 00:33:52,559 the pilots on the East Coast going at 845 00:33:57,649 --> 00:33:54,659 the the entry point to their area of 846 00:33:59,210 --> 00:33:57,659 operations and every time they go there 847 00:34:02,090 --> 00:33:59,220 there are these things sitting there 848 00:34:03,889 --> 00:34:02,100 watching them so I gotta think there's a 849 00:34:05,509 --> 00:34:03,899 psychological impact that we're not 850 00:34:08,329 --> 00:34:05,519 hearing about that's not being taken 851 00:34:10,550 --> 00:34:08,339 into effect as well so rather than maybe 852 00:34:12,770 --> 00:34:10,560 a direct health of consequence like some 853 00:34:14,690 --> 00:34:12,780 sort of radiation or or something from 854 00:34:18,109 --> 00:34:14,700 the uh the UFOs that are affecting 855 00:34:20,570 --> 00:34:18,119 people is the the idea that again you're 856 00:34:22,849 --> 00:34:20,580 the baddest baddest guy on the Block in 857 00:34:24,770 --> 00:34:22,859 the most advanced military aircraft and 858 00:34:27,050 --> 00:34:24,780 things are flying circles around you and 859 00:34:28,970 --> 00:34:27,060 they're almost crashing into you I would 860 00:34:30,649 --> 00:34:28,980 think that would uh definitely affect 861 00:34:32,030 --> 00:34:30,659 the Pilot's confidence and could 862 00:34:34,790 --> 00:34:32,040 definitely I mean if I were gonna have 863 00:34:36,649 --> 00:34:34,800 PTSD as a pilot I think almost crashing 864 00:34:39,349 --> 00:34:36,659 into stuff would definitely be one of 865 00:34:42,409 --> 00:34:39,359 the things that would cause it so I I 866 00:34:44,210 --> 00:34:42,419 think uh to dismiss that element of the 867 00:34:47,030 --> 00:34:44,220 health consequences completely is a 868 00:34:48,349 --> 00:34:47,040 little frustrating yeah I agree although 869 00:34:51,649 --> 00:34:48,359 I will add of course you know that they 870 00:34:53,149 --> 00:34:51,659 do uh still emphasize the flight safety 871 00:34:54,169 --> 00:34:53,159 concerns but again that's a little 872 00:34:56,270 --> 00:34:54,179 different from what Chris is talking 873 00:34:57,470 --> 00:34:56,280 about I mean if you were an aviator if 874 00:34:59,030 --> 00:34:57,480 you were any kind of active duty 875 00:35:01,190 --> 00:34:59,040 Personnel what is the psychological 876 00:35:03,290 --> 00:35:01,200 impact that encountering an unknown 877 00:35:05,089 --> 00:35:03,300 technology might represent for you you 878 00:35:06,530 --> 00:35:05,099 know other big news in recent days it's 879 00:35:08,930 --> 00:35:06,540 actually been uh brought to my attention 880 00:35:10,370 --> 00:35:08,940 in recent days contacts that might have 881 00:35:11,630 --> 00:35:10,380 been sending the info I think on Friday 882 00:35:15,349 --> 00:35:11,640 or Saturday I guess it would have been 883 00:35:16,970 --> 00:35:15,359 probably uh yeah Friday late Friday and 884 00:35:18,589 --> 00:35:16,980 then there were some Buzz about it among 885 00:35:20,329 --> 00:35:18,599 the debrief team in recent days that 886 00:35:21,650 --> 00:35:20,339 indeed there are some documents that 887 00:35:23,870 --> 00:35:21,660 have appeared online that have been 888 00:35:26,990 --> 00:35:23,880 released by the Navy related to these 889 00:35:29,930 --> 00:35:27,000 so-called arrange Fowler incidents and 890 00:35:32,450 --> 00:35:29,940 uh although frustratingly most of the 891 00:35:34,010 --> 00:35:32,460 data in terms of the actual incidents 892 00:35:36,230 --> 00:35:34,020 and descriptions of the objects their 893 00:35:38,810 --> 00:35:36,240 shape their color their flight 894 00:35:40,490 --> 00:35:38,820 capabilities and other Dynamics reported 895 00:35:43,130 --> 00:35:40,500 by military personnel this has all been 896 00:35:45,050 --> 00:35:43,140 redacted because much like the 897 00:35:47,630 --> 00:35:45,060 classified version of the 2021 898 00:35:49,609 --> 00:35:47,640 preliminary assessment which eventually 899 00:35:51,349 --> 00:35:49,619 was obtained through the process known 900 00:35:54,530 --> 00:35:51,359 as mandatory declassification review by 901 00:35:55,970 --> 00:35:54,540 research John Greenwald and of course I 902 00:35:57,770 --> 00:35:55,980 believe Ryan you spoke with John about 903 00:35:59,870 --> 00:35:57,780 that I had him on my program and John 904 00:36:02,569 --> 00:35:59,880 and I spoke at length about that 905 00:36:06,170 --> 00:36:02,579 that report gave us quite a good bit 906 00:36:07,609 --> 00:36:06,180 more information but still no idea of 907 00:36:09,470 --> 00:36:07,619 what the objects look like what their 908 00:36:12,230 --> 00:36:09,480 shape is what they're even their color 909 00:36:13,849 --> 00:36:12,240 is with one exception there doesn't seem 910 00:36:15,470 --> 00:36:13,859 to be very much in terms of redaction 911 00:36:17,270 --> 00:36:15,480 about the Nimitz incident and I think 912 00:36:18,950 --> 00:36:17,280 that the very obvious reason why is 913 00:36:21,890 --> 00:36:18,960 because now when new information comes 914 00:36:24,170 --> 00:36:21,900 out about that case what little we see I 915 00:36:26,329 --> 00:36:24,180 think that the folks up there uh at the 916 00:36:27,589 --> 00:36:26,339 Navy and and more broadly at the dod 917 00:36:29,089 --> 00:36:27,599 they recognize well you know there's 918 00:36:30,470 --> 00:36:29,099 been so much said about this all these 919 00:36:32,270 --> 00:36:30,480 Pilots have come forward everybody kind 920 00:36:34,970 --> 00:36:32,280 of knows it was kind of tic-tac-shaped 921 00:36:36,530 --> 00:36:34,980 it was whitish on the exterior so really 922 00:36:39,530 --> 00:36:36,540 no point in removing that information 923 00:36:41,810 --> 00:36:39,540 from further data that's released and so 924 00:36:43,790 --> 00:36:41,820 the most recent batch of Navy documents 925 00:36:45,109 --> 00:36:43,800 actually do contain the unredacted 926 00:36:47,990 --> 00:36:45,119 description of what's obviously the 927 00:36:49,490 --> 00:36:48,000 Nimitz incident from 2004 and all the 928 00:36:51,230 --> 00:36:49,500 other incidents everything's redacted 929 00:36:53,210 --> 00:36:51,240 just like in that classified version of 930 00:36:56,510 --> 00:36:53,220 last year's preliminaries or the 2021 931 00:36:58,670 --> 00:36:56,520 sorry New Year the 2021 preliminary 932 00:37:00,710 --> 00:36:58,680 assessment but my point is is again that 933 00:37:03,589 --> 00:37:00,720 I think it's frustrating how little 934 00:37:05,089 --> 00:37:03,599 information they'll release if there's 935 00:37:06,890 --> 00:37:05,099 anything we can glean though it is that 936 00:37:08,990 --> 00:37:06,900 I mean aviators especially and more 937 00:37:10,310 --> 00:37:09,000 broadly personnel with our military do 938 00:37:12,589 --> 00:37:10,320 encounter these things they're very 939 00:37:13,970 --> 00:37:12,599 perplexed by it they thought it was 940 00:37:16,849 --> 00:37:13,980 concerning enough that they filed a 941 00:37:18,770 --> 00:37:16,859 report in many instances the reports are 942 00:37:20,089 --> 00:37:18,780 actually filed much longer after the 943 00:37:21,770 --> 00:37:20,099 fact in other words they may have 944 00:37:23,930 --> 00:37:21,780 occurred years earlier 945 00:37:26,510 --> 00:37:23,940 but these Pilots now that the stigma has 946 00:37:28,190 --> 00:37:26,520 begun to be lifted somewhat and it's not 947 00:37:30,230 --> 00:37:28,200 exclusively Pilots I should really just 948 00:37:31,670 --> 00:37:30,240 say military personnel more and more of 949 00:37:33,730 --> 00:37:31,680 them have actually gone back and they've 950 00:37:35,870 --> 00:37:33,740 filed reports about earlier incidents 951 00:37:37,430 --> 00:37:35,880 describing things that were seen and you 952 00:37:38,930 --> 00:37:37,440 do see references to that in some of the 953 00:37:41,109 --> 00:37:38,940 recent foia documents that have been 954 00:37:43,310 --> 00:37:41,119 released references to for instance 955 00:37:44,870 --> 00:37:43,320 there was very little said about the 956 00:37:46,550 --> 00:37:44,880 actual description of the object in the 957 00:37:47,870 --> 00:37:46,560 original email and it's saying things 958 00:37:50,870 --> 00:37:47,880 like this that are indicating that 959 00:37:52,790 --> 00:37:50,880 people are discussing past encounters or 960 00:37:54,710 --> 00:37:52,800 references to past correspondences that 961 00:37:55,910 --> 00:37:54,720 detailed these incidents I'm glad more 962 00:37:57,230 --> 00:37:55,920 people are coming forward and talking 963 00:37:59,270 --> 00:37:57,240 about it though and again to Chris's 964 00:38:01,069 --> 00:37:59,280 point maybe they need to maybe there's a 965 00:38:02,450 --> 00:38:01,079 degree of catharsis with fed in the 966 00:38:04,670 --> 00:38:02,460 sense that you know they need to be able 967 00:38:05,990 --> 00:38:04,680 to say hey look we've seen things we 968 00:38:07,609 --> 00:38:06,000 can't explain it we don't know what they 969 00:38:10,609 --> 00:38:07,619 are and we want our government to do 970 00:38:12,230 --> 00:38:10,619 something about it yep absolutely and I 971 00:38:15,050 --> 00:38:12,240 think that's a good point you know this 972 00:38:18,050 --> 00:38:15,060 new language that was in the legislation 973 00:38:19,910 --> 00:38:18,060 of uh whistleblowers coming forward this 974 00:38:21,530 --> 00:38:19,920 is only going to increase the amount of 975 00:38:24,410 --> 00:38:21,540 reports that are going to come in as 976 00:38:27,530 --> 00:38:24,420 well so again thank God we have Congress 977 00:38:30,650 --> 00:38:27,540 pushing these things you know while I 978 00:38:34,250 --> 00:38:30,660 didn't so much glean a lot from this 979 00:38:36,470 --> 00:38:34,260 report it's exciting for me of what's to 980 00:38:39,050 --> 00:38:36,480 come and you know what we're gonna get 981 00:38:41,329 --> 00:38:39,060 with this new bill that was passed that 982 00:38:43,490 --> 00:38:41,339 had this new language and you know like 983 00:38:46,730 --> 00:38:43,500 you mentioned Micah going back to 1945 984 00:38:49,550 --> 00:38:46,740 even uh it's gonna be it's exciting 985 00:38:52,130 --> 00:38:49,560 times uh I I think this report has shown 986 00:38:53,150 --> 00:38:52,140 us okay new groups here Arrow's here to 987 00:38:56,630 --> 00:38:53,160 stay 988 00:38:59,390 --> 00:38:56,640 um they're clearly taking a dry yet very 989 00:39:01,670 --> 00:38:59,400 careful approach to this and we couldn't 990 00:39:03,230 --> 00:39:01,680 ask for more to be completely honest um 991 00:39:05,150 --> 00:39:03,240 I think it's interesting 992 00:39:06,950 --> 00:39:05,160 um I do want to um and we want to hear 993 00:39:09,530 --> 00:39:06,960 from you guys but I have a couple 994 00:39:12,109 --> 00:39:09,540 people's thoughts on this report that I 995 00:39:13,310 --> 00:39:12,119 did want to run through very quickly uh 996 00:39:15,589 --> 00:39:13,320 because I thought they brought up some 997 00:39:17,810 --> 00:39:15,599 really good points so bear with me guys 998 00:39:20,569 --> 00:39:17,820 here for just a few moments the first 999 00:39:22,790 --> 00:39:20,579 comes from Christopher melon and 1000 00:39:24,589 --> 00:39:22,800 um it got a little cut off here in the 1001 00:39:26,210 --> 00:39:24,599 PowerPoint that I have so I do apologize 1002 00:39:27,290 --> 00:39:26,220 but I'll go ahead and read these really 1003 00:39:28,690 --> 00:39:27,300 quick 1004 00:39:31,010 --> 00:39:28,700 um Chris millin said of the report 1005 00:39:32,630 --> 00:39:31,020 Congressional initiatives related to UAP 1006 00:39:34,550 --> 00:39:32,640 are already paying dividends by 1007 00:39:36,109 --> 00:39:34,560 improving our ability to distinguish 1008 00:39:38,450 --> 00:39:36,119 legitimate threats from innocuous 1009 00:39:40,609 --> 00:39:38,460 balloons and other Airborne Airborne 1010 00:39:45,109 --> 00:39:40,619 clutter initial progress includes the 1011 00:39:47,030 --> 00:39:45,119 identification of 173 out of 510 if true 1012 00:39:49,849 --> 00:39:47,040 that is a major achievement with broad 1013 00:39:51,770 --> 00:39:49,859 implications for security uh Micah 1014 00:39:53,030 --> 00:39:51,780 brought up that point earlier this one 1015 00:39:55,310 --> 00:39:53,040 was pretty interesting the government 1016 00:39:57,109 --> 00:39:55,320 again demonstrated its unique and 1017 00:39:59,810 --> 00:39:57,119 uncanny ability to transform an 1018 00:40:02,450 --> 00:39:59,820 inherently fascinating topic into vexing 1019 00:40:04,609 --> 00:40:02,460 bureaucratic jargon if the intent was to 1020 00:40:07,370 --> 00:40:04,619 make the report as an Anodyne 1021 00:40:10,430 --> 00:40:07,380 unremarkable and boring as possible the 1022 00:40:13,190 --> 00:40:10,440 authors did exceptionally well God I 1023 00:40:15,290 --> 00:40:13,200 love this man's son it appears their 1024 00:40:17,569 --> 00:40:15,300 efforts were made to minimize the impact 1025 00:40:20,210 --> 00:40:17,579 of the data for example there is an 1026 00:40:22,069 --> 00:40:20,220 incredibly s dark contrast between the 1027 00:40:24,650 --> 00:40:22,079 studying testimony of you AP 1028 00:40:28,550 --> 00:40:24,660 capabilities reported by Navy pilots and 1029 00:40:31,310 --> 00:40:28,560 the flaccid UAP report language 1030 00:40:33,349 --> 00:40:31,320 um I love this uh here's the last 1031 00:40:35,329 --> 00:40:33,359 interesting point I want to bring up UAP 1032 00:40:37,130 --> 00:40:35,339 issue is gaining traction and acceptance 1033 00:40:38,569 --> 00:40:37,140 within the government some incidents 1034 00:40:40,790 --> 00:40:38,579 have already been resolved and our 1035 00:40:43,130 --> 00:40:40,800 nation may already be safer because of 1036 00:40:44,450 --> 00:40:43,140 it for example if it is true that some 1037 00:40:46,370 --> 00:40:44,460 of the incidents off the coast of 1038 00:40:49,130 --> 00:40:46,380 California were identified as Chinese 1039 00:40:51,290 --> 00:40:49,140 drones that is a huge breakthrough for 1040 00:40:53,150 --> 00:40:51,300 U.S intelligence that would not have 1041 00:40:55,970 --> 00:40:53,160 occurred absent the new focus on 1042 00:40:59,089 --> 00:40:55,980 collecting and investigating UAP reports 1043 00:41:01,190 --> 00:40:59,099 that is so true uh let's also not lose 1044 00:41:03,530 --> 00:41:01,200 sight of the fact that science May 1045 00:41:05,569 --> 00:41:03,540 benefit as well having participated in 1046 00:41:08,210 --> 00:41:05,579 debriefs of numerous military aviators 1047 00:41:10,609 --> 00:41:08,220 and radar operators I believe this is a 1048 00:41:12,589 --> 00:41:10,619 genuine possibility indeed I've spoken 1049 00:41:15,910 --> 00:41:12,599 with several credible people who claim 1050 00:41:18,650 --> 00:41:15,920 the U.S has evidence of alien technology 1051 00:41:21,950 --> 00:41:18,660 in its possession 1052 00:41:24,290 --> 00:41:21,960 uh What uh so you guys have any what are 1053 00:41:25,849 --> 00:41:24,300 your responses to that last part there 1054 00:41:27,770 --> 00:41:25,859 he brings up some positive some 1055 00:41:29,990 --> 00:41:27,780 negatives and then hits us at the end 1056 00:41:32,569 --> 00:41:30,000 with yeah I've talked to people totally 1057 00:41:34,430 --> 00:41:32,579 alien evidence for sure um who wants to 1058 00:41:35,569 --> 00:41:34,440 take that go ahead Chris I'll jump in 1059 00:41:42,170 --> 00:41:35,579 later 1060 00:41:47,030 --> 00:41:43,910 I think there's kind of been a feeling 1061 00:41:52,190 --> 00:41:49,849 that beautiful face again 1062 00:41:54,470 --> 00:41:52,200 I love it I love it 1063 00:41:56,450 --> 00:41:54,480 I'm just kidding do the same thing make 1064 00:41:57,730 --> 00:41:56,460 it look like I was frozen too make you 1065 00:42:01,370 --> 00:41:57,740 panic a little 1066 00:42:02,870 --> 00:42:01,380 playing the mod the freeze game go yeah 1067 00:42:04,690 --> 00:42:02,880 exactly hey let's just do that and then 1068 00:42:07,910 --> 00:42:04,700 when it comes back yeah there he is 1069 00:42:09,589 --> 00:42:07,920 glasses yeah every time I come back I'll 1070 00:42:12,530 --> 00:42:09,599 have my glasses because I'm looking down 1071 00:42:14,089 --> 00:42:12,540 what the hell happened 1072 00:42:15,770 --> 00:42:14,099 yeah what were you saying I'm sorry 1073 00:42:17,630 --> 00:42:15,780 individuals thing because there's always 1074 00:42:19,970 --> 00:42:17,640 been a fear that we're talking about you 1075 00:42:22,250 --> 00:42:19,980 know Eric Davis told him hey I heard 1076 00:42:24,530 --> 00:42:22,260 that you know we got crashed ships and 1077 00:42:26,270 --> 00:42:24,540 that's what uh he's completely going on 1078 00:42:28,490 --> 00:42:26,280 and I think that's always been some of 1079 00:42:30,290 --> 00:42:28,500 the fear with melon is because it's 1080 00:42:33,410 --> 00:42:30,300 respectable a guy he is and has 1081 00:42:35,390 --> 00:42:33,420 established a guy he is is is he been 1082 00:42:37,849 --> 00:42:35,400 fooled has he been you know this is 1083 00:42:39,950 --> 00:42:37,859 something you hear about the whole uh 1084 00:42:41,690 --> 00:42:39,960 latest chain of operations that are 1085 00:42:44,810 --> 00:42:41,700 happening here is that there's a handful 1086 00:42:47,510 --> 00:42:44,820 of zealots that have fooled Congress and 1087 00:42:49,490 --> 00:42:47,520 fooled committee members into buying 1088 00:42:52,069 --> 00:42:49,500 into looking into something that's uh 1089 00:42:53,990 --> 00:42:52,079 just has no validity to it so to hear 1090 00:42:55,849 --> 00:42:54,000 him say several individuals I thought 1091 00:42:58,250 --> 00:42:55,859 was very exciting I don't know if we'll 1092 00:42:59,990 --> 00:42:58,260 ever get a list I will also point out 1093 00:43:02,030 --> 00:43:00,000 that something I think is critical and 1094 00:43:03,710 --> 00:43:02,040 something that I've been saying for 1095 00:43:07,490 --> 00:43:03,720 decades as a guy who's been following 1096 00:43:09,650 --> 00:43:07,500 this subject for decades is we are in a 1097 00:43:13,730 --> 00:43:09,660 representative government in the United 1098 00:43:16,609 --> 00:43:13,740 States and the feeling was always if the 1099 00:43:19,010 --> 00:43:16,619 if the military has evidence of 1100 00:43:21,770 --> 00:43:19,020 something incredible even if it's just 1101 00:43:24,650 --> 00:43:21,780 Chinese drones but they're drones that 1102 00:43:26,870 --> 00:43:24,660 do incredible Maneuvers and do is seem 1103 00:43:28,910 --> 00:43:26,880 to fly Against the Wind at 1200 miles an 1104 00:43:32,569 --> 00:43:28,920 hour while rotating or any of these sort 1105 00:43:34,550 --> 00:43:32,579 of things that at a minimum our 1106 00:43:36,290 --> 00:43:34,560 Representatives should be in the loop 1107 00:43:38,930 --> 00:43:36,300 that our our governmental 1108 00:43:42,230 --> 00:43:38,940 Representatives so I think that's just a 1109 00:43:45,349 --> 00:43:42,240 a significant shift to not miss here is 1110 00:43:47,569 --> 00:43:45,359 that at least on some level the people 1111 00:43:49,490 --> 00:43:47,579 are in the room even if we're not in the 1112 00:43:52,309 --> 00:43:49,500 room you know there are representatives 1113 00:43:54,770 --> 00:43:52,319 are in the room and hearing this stuff I 1114 00:43:56,750 --> 00:43:54,780 also think the benefit of having our 1115 00:43:59,990 --> 00:43:56,760 people and representatives and senators 1116 00:44:03,230 --> 00:44:00,000 in the room Congress reps is 1117 00:44:05,569 --> 00:44:03,240 if there's something is incredible comes 1118 00:44:12,410 --> 00:44:05,579 out of this and something that that the 1119 00:44:18,170 --> 00:44:15,470 whoops and 1120 00:44:20,450 --> 00:44:18,180 and there he goes unfortunate every time 1121 00:44:21,890 --> 00:44:20,460 he has a good point it happens hopefully 1122 00:44:23,210 --> 00:44:21,900 we'll get him back you know maybe in the 1123 00:44:26,450 --> 00:44:23,220 interest of time I'll just jump in here 1124 00:44:28,370 --> 00:44:26,460 really quickly uh you know I agree with 1125 00:44:29,930 --> 00:44:28,380 all of Chris smellin's points in terms 1126 00:44:32,270 --> 00:44:29,940 of the way that he characterized the 1127 00:44:35,930 --> 00:44:32,280 language in the report that uh level of 1128 00:44:38,030 --> 00:44:35,940 bureaucratis obviously uh left a lot to 1129 00:44:40,190 --> 00:44:38,040 be desired nonetheless I hope that the 1130 00:44:43,670 --> 00:44:40,200 point I made earlier about what the data 1131 00:44:46,250 --> 00:44:43,680 actually conveys as as well as the 1132 00:44:48,890 --> 00:44:46,260 apparent attempt at wording that in in 1133 00:44:51,290 --> 00:44:48,900 such a manner so unsensational and if 1134 00:44:54,170 --> 00:44:51,300 anything to the point of being Bland and 1135 00:44:55,670 --> 00:44:54,180 blase so as almost too distract away 1136 00:44:57,470 --> 00:44:55,680 from the significance of the number of 1137 00:44:59,270 --> 00:44:57,480 reports that remain unresolved don't let 1138 00:45:02,390 --> 00:44:59,280 that fool you and I'm not saying that 1139 00:45:04,190 --> 00:45:02,400 there is an effort to try and misdirect 1140 00:45:05,750 --> 00:45:04,200 I definitely think however that the 1141 00:45:09,109 --> 00:45:05,760 wording is clearly indicative of an 1142 00:45:10,370 --> 00:45:09,119 attempt to sanitize the data so read it 1143 00:45:12,890 --> 00:45:10,380 for what it is look at what the actual 1144 00:45:14,750 --> 00:45:12,900 numbers convey no unidentified does not 1145 00:45:16,250 --> 00:45:14,760 necessarily mean alien but that's far 1146 00:45:17,870 --> 00:45:16,260 better than what we were told in the 1147 00:45:19,730 --> 00:45:17,880 pre-reporting buy Outlets like the New 1148 00:45:22,069 --> 00:45:19,740 York Times and again one more reason why 1149 00:45:23,809 --> 00:45:22,079 I felt it was incumbent upon us as 1150 00:45:26,030 --> 00:45:23,819 journalists with the debrief 1151 00:45:27,890 --> 00:45:26,040 to wait until the report came out to do 1152 00:45:29,450 --> 00:45:27,900 our own investigation and I'll just tell 1153 00:45:31,250 --> 00:45:29,460 you because I didn't get ahead of the 1154 00:45:33,890 --> 00:45:31,260 game and speculate and then have to try 1155 00:45:36,710 --> 00:45:33,900 and justify my guesswork after the fact 1156 00:45:38,630 --> 00:45:36,720 I wasn't actually left dangling and uh 1157 00:45:40,970 --> 00:45:38,640 and certainly was not as disappointed I 1158 00:45:42,349 --> 00:45:40,980 think by this report as many were it 1159 00:45:44,690 --> 00:45:42,359 said just about what I thought it would 1160 00:45:46,849 --> 00:45:44,700 be but you know I had low expectations 1161 00:45:50,210 --> 00:45:46,859 from the outset Ryan in advance of the 1162 00:45:52,309 --> 00:45:50,220 2021 odni assessment I mean I was on 1163 00:45:53,870 --> 00:45:52,319 record on my podcast and Tim McMillan 1164 00:45:56,210 --> 00:45:53,880 and I had talked about this on several 1165 00:45:57,530 --> 00:45:56,220 shows I was I think you and I talked 1166 00:45:58,910 --> 00:45:57,540 about it on your show I was pretty 1167 00:46:00,710 --> 00:45:58,920 convinced that what we were probably 1168 00:46:02,390 --> 00:46:00,720 going to see with that report was most 1169 00:46:04,010 --> 00:46:02,400 of these things are drones and foreign 1170 00:46:05,630 --> 00:46:04,020 surveillance platforms and things like 1171 00:46:08,150 --> 00:46:05,640 this atmospheric phenomena in a few 1172 00:46:10,010 --> 00:46:08,160 instances I was actually shocked as hell 1173 00:46:11,569 --> 00:46:10,020 that they said as much as they did about 1174 00:46:13,550 --> 00:46:11,579 the potential for their be being 1175 00:46:15,109 --> 00:46:13,560 unidentified Advanced Aerospace 1176 00:46:16,910 --> 00:46:15,119 Technologies and things that may require 1177 00:46:18,530 --> 00:46:16,920 science advances 1178 00:46:21,349 --> 00:46:18,540 before they could be fully understood 1179 00:46:23,150 --> 00:46:21,359 and reconciled potentially I mean that 1180 00:46:25,550 --> 00:46:23,160 was very interesting to me and as Chris 1181 00:46:27,349 --> 00:46:25,560 alluded to earlier having since the 1182 00:46:29,030 --> 00:46:27,359 issuance of that report spoken to some 1183 00:46:30,890 --> 00:46:29,040 of the individuals who were involved in 1184 00:46:33,349 --> 00:46:30,900 collection of data about it to the 1185 00:46:35,569 --> 00:46:33,359 extent to which that they could actually 1186 00:46:37,609 --> 00:46:35,579 discuss it and I respect these people 1187 00:46:39,290 --> 00:46:37,619 both for speaking with journalists like 1188 00:46:41,089 --> 00:46:39,300 myself but also more importantly for 1189 00:46:43,790 --> 00:46:41,099 being very careful about what they do 1190 00:46:45,829 --> 00:46:43,800 discuss and not conveying data that they 1191 00:46:47,690 --> 00:46:45,839 shouldn't or can't right that is 1192 00:46:49,849 --> 00:46:47,700 protected because I do think sometimes 1193 00:46:51,230 --> 00:46:49,859 secrecy is needed why in these instances 1194 00:46:52,970 --> 00:46:51,240 it's pretty obvious and this new report 1195 00:46:55,550 --> 00:46:52,980 also shows that and Chris Mellon points 1196 00:46:57,230 --> 00:46:55,560 that out in his commentary if indeed 1197 00:46:59,270 --> 00:46:57,240 they're resolving some of these reports 1198 00:47:01,130 --> 00:46:59,280 and those do point to the idea that 1199 00:47:03,170 --> 00:47:01,140 there are Chinese Technologies primarily 1200 00:47:06,349 --> 00:47:03,180 and that more likely or a greater 1201 00:47:07,849 --> 00:47:06,359 likelihood than Russia at this point if 1202 00:47:09,470 --> 00:47:07,859 indeed there are some surveillance 1203 00:47:11,270 --> 00:47:09,480 platforms that are monitoring U.S 1204 00:47:13,609 --> 00:47:11,280 activities the U.S has to be careful 1205 00:47:14,809 --> 00:47:13,619 about how much it says about that and 1206 00:47:16,550 --> 00:47:14,819 here I think in terms of what the 1207 00:47:19,190 --> 00:47:16,560 report's saying balloons or balloon-like 1208 00:47:21,230 --> 00:47:19,200 things read between the lines what they 1209 00:47:23,569 --> 00:47:21,240 are implying is yeah there's probably 1210 00:47:25,670 --> 00:47:23,579 some stuff that we're collecting and we 1211 00:47:26,990 --> 00:47:25,680 have a pretty good idea whose it is we 1212 00:47:28,190 --> 00:47:27,000 can't say too much about how it was 1213 00:47:30,410 --> 00:47:28,200 collected we don't want to say too much 1214 00:47:32,990 --> 00:47:30,420 about what was observed in fact because 1215 00:47:35,089 --> 00:47:33,000 we don't want to clue our enemies in on 1216 00:47:37,849 --> 00:47:35,099 the fact that we are observing them to 1217 00:47:40,069 --> 00:47:37,859 an extent the Spy game works best when 1218 00:47:41,930 --> 00:47:40,079 you know you're being watched but the 1219 00:47:43,790 --> 00:47:41,940 ones who are spying on you don't know 1220 00:47:45,650 --> 00:47:43,800 that you're aware that you're watching 1221 00:47:47,990 --> 00:47:45,660 them and so the U.S has to manage that 1222 00:47:49,490 --> 00:47:48,000 very carefully and that's one of the 1223 00:47:51,109 --> 00:47:49,500 important reasons for a certain degree 1224 00:47:52,910 --> 00:47:51,119 of secrecy so I respect that in the 1225 00:47:54,890 --> 00:47:52,920 individuals who have you know strived to 1226 00:47:56,329 --> 00:47:54,900 protect that both with this report and 1227 00:47:57,530 --> 00:47:56,339 also those who come forward and talk to 1228 00:47:58,970 --> 00:47:57,540 journalists whether it's the New York 1229 00:48:01,069 --> 00:47:58,980 Times or it's the debrief or whomever 1230 00:48:02,210 --> 00:48:01,079 else that they speak to so there are a 1231 00:48:04,250 --> 00:48:02,220 lot of dynamics that have to be 1232 00:48:06,109 --> 00:48:04,260 understood and managed I think with 1233 00:48:08,390 --> 00:48:06,119 relation to the UAP issue and if nothing 1234 00:48:10,609 --> 00:48:08,400 else yes it's beneficial that the study 1235 00:48:12,890 --> 00:48:10,619 of UAP leads to a greater degree of 1236 00:48:14,809 --> 00:48:12,900 awareness of potential adversarial 1237 00:48:16,790 --> 00:48:14,819 threats and surveillance that's 1238 00:48:18,349 --> 00:48:16,800 occurring and how that might and you 1239 00:48:20,690 --> 00:48:18,359 know negatively impact the United States 1240 00:48:22,550 --> 00:48:20,700 and National Security I suspect though 1241 00:48:23,930 --> 00:48:22,560 that some of that surveillance was 1242 00:48:25,670 --> 00:48:23,940 something that we were monitoring and 1243 00:48:27,950 --> 00:48:25,680 that we were aware of before UAP came 1244 00:48:29,990 --> 00:48:27,960 into the equation but what this does is 1245 00:48:31,790 --> 00:48:30,000 it helps the United States public also 1246 00:48:34,790 --> 00:48:31,800 have a broader degree of awareness about 1247 00:48:36,770 --> 00:48:34,800 that and also on the issue of what we 1248 00:48:39,470 --> 00:48:36,780 would call the real UAP the truly 1249 00:48:40,910 --> 00:48:39,480 unidentified anomalous phenomena there's 1250 00:48:42,770 --> 00:48:40,920 also going to be a greater degree of 1251 00:48:44,510 --> 00:48:42,780 interest in the study of that both with 1252 00:48:45,849 --> 00:48:44,520 government but also as we have seen as a 1253 00:48:48,170 --> 00:48:45,859 result of the government's involvement 1254 00:48:49,730 --> 00:48:48,180 scientists have been galvanized more and 1255 00:48:51,530 --> 00:48:49,740 more of them have become involved Avi 1256 00:48:53,329 --> 00:48:51,540 Loeb of course has launched the Galileo 1257 00:48:55,130 --> 00:48:53,339 project NASA is conducting its own 1258 00:48:57,349 --> 00:48:55,140 review of not classified information 1259 00:48:59,750 --> 00:48:57,359 mind you but information available to 1260 00:49:01,670 --> 00:48:59,760 the to the public and we also have all 1261 00:49:03,230 --> 00:49:01,680 these different UAP investigative groups 1262 00:49:04,970 --> 00:49:03,240 scientific organizations that are now 1263 00:49:06,349 --> 00:49:04,980 springing up conferences that are geared 1264 00:49:08,870 --> 00:49:06,359 toward the scientific study of this 1265 00:49:11,150 --> 00:49:08,880 phenomenon this is a good thing for UAP 1266 00:49:12,890 --> 00:49:11,160 this is a good thing for UFOs if you 1267 00:49:14,809 --> 00:49:12,900 still call them that and I think that 1268 00:49:17,390 --> 00:49:14,819 more broadly culturally we are looking 1269 00:49:19,730 --> 00:49:17,400 at a wide array of different things but 1270 00:49:21,109 --> 00:49:19,740 the sum total is pretty good I think 1271 00:49:22,670 --> 00:49:21,119 these are good these are positive these 1272 00:49:24,710 --> 00:49:22,680 are necessary developments and so again 1273 00:49:26,030 --> 00:49:24,720 I know I get it people are kind of 1274 00:49:27,609 --> 00:49:26,040 disappointed 1275 00:49:31,130 --> 00:49:27,619 everybody wants everything yesterday 1276 00:49:33,050 --> 00:49:31,140 right you know today is not soon enough 1277 00:49:34,910 --> 00:49:33,060 we've got to be patient but I mean 1278 00:49:36,950 --> 00:49:34,920 there's a slow drip occurring right now 1279 00:49:38,450 --> 00:49:36,960 that I think in time will pay off and 1280 00:49:41,210 --> 00:49:38,460 we're seeing some promising developments 1281 00:49:43,550 --> 00:49:41,220 yep we are we are and some of those 1282 00:49:45,410 --> 00:49:43,560 promising developments came from the 1283 00:49:47,510 --> 00:49:45,420 person you mentioned avilo this came 1284 00:49:50,750 --> 00:49:47,520 from an article that just released over 1285 00:49:52,250 --> 00:49:50,760 at thedebrief.org guys so go on over if 1286 00:49:54,290 --> 00:49:52,260 you want to give it a read I know it got 1287 00:49:56,210 --> 00:49:54,300 cut off there again let me go ahead and 1288 00:49:57,770 --> 00:49:56,220 read these very quickly get you guys 1289 00:49:59,750 --> 00:49:57,780 thoughts 1290 00:50:01,430 --> 00:49:59,760 um obviously since classified sensors 1291 00:50:03,230 --> 00:50:01,440 collect government data the most 1292 00:50:05,450 --> 00:50:03,240 interesting information is likely to 1293 00:50:07,609 --> 00:50:05,460 remain hidden from public view but the 1294 00:50:10,550 --> 00:50:07,619 good news is that the sky is not 1295 00:50:11,870 --> 00:50:10,560 classified in the study of ET objects 1296 00:50:13,970 --> 00:50:11,880 could be addressed through the 1297 00:50:15,849 --> 00:50:13,980 scientific method by sharing open data 1298 00:50:18,890 --> 00:50:15,859 and new knowledge with all humans 1299 00:50:20,870 --> 00:50:18,900 irrespective of their national identity 1300 00:50:22,670 --> 00:50:20,880 this report alerts the scientific 1301 00:50:24,650 --> 00:50:22,680 Community to the presence of anomalous 1302 00:50:26,809 --> 00:50:24,660 objects but it does not provide 1303 00:50:29,750 --> 00:50:26,819 sufficient evidence about the nature of 1304 00:50:31,910 --> 00:50:29,760 UAP which may be moving accelerating or 1305 00:50:34,849 --> 00:50:31,920 looking differently from technological 1306 00:50:36,829 --> 00:50:34,859 devices the robustness of any 1307 00:50:38,990 --> 00:50:36,839 conclusions about these objects depends 1308 00:50:41,030 --> 00:50:39,000 on the quality of the data collected 1309 00:50:43,010 --> 00:50:41,040 moreover if the senses are not well 1310 00:50:45,530 --> 00:50:43,020 calibrated they would show false 1311 00:50:48,710 --> 00:50:45,540 positives or artifacts that do not 1312 00:50:50,630 --> 00:50:48,720 reflect real objects the fact that odni 1313 00:50:52,750 --> 00:50:50,640 is unable to decipher the nature of the 1314 00:50:54,650 --> 00:50:52,760 third of a third of the reported UAP 1315 00:50:56,930 --> 00:50:54,660 underlines the need for a scientific 1316 00:51:00,170 --> 00:50:56,940 research program that is based on open 1317 00:51:02,510 --> 00:51:00,180 data even if one object out of 510 1318 00:51:04,910 --> 00:51:02,520 reported UAP is of extraterrestrial 1319 00:51:06,950 --> 00:51:04,920 origin and this object poses no threat 1320 00:51:09,530 --> 00:51:06,960 to National Security its identification 1321 00:51:12,770 --> 00:51:09,540 will be the most important discovery 1322 00:51:16,730 --> 00:51:12,780 that Humanity has ever made 1323 00:51:19,130 --> 00:51:16,740 so there we go I mean you know avi's 1324 00:51:21,470 --> 00:51:19,140 doing his thing Arrow's doing its thing 1325 00:51:22,910 --> 00:51:21,480 uapx is doing its thing 1326 00:51:25,250 --> 00:51:22,920 um hopefully all this data will be 1327 00:51:26,270 --> 00:51:25,260 compiled together NASA is doing their 1328 00:51:30,950 --> 00:51:26,280 own thing 1329 00:51:32,809 --> 00:51:30,960 um so look the fire keeps burning uh the 1330 00:51:36,770 --> 00:51:32,819 inspiration's there everyone said you 1331 00:51:38,750 --> 00:51:36,780 know the 2017 fervor of ufology is is is 1332 00:51:41,089 --> 00:51:38,760 fizzling and you know we're going to 1333 00:51:42,650 --> 00:51:41,099 enter another Dark Age of ephology 1334 00:51:44,630 --> 00:51:42,660 I don't see that 1335 00:51:47,150 --> 00:51:44,640 um I certainly don't see that because 1336 00:51:48,710 --> 00:51:47,160 you got people like avilo being like nah 1337 00:51:50,870 --> 00:51:48,720 we're not accepting that you have 1338 00:51:54,410 --> 00:51:50,880 Congress members saying nope nope we're 1339 00:51:56,990 --> 00:51:54,420 not letting you guys go that easily so 1340 00:51:59,329 --> 00:51:57,000 um scientifically Chris take this for us 1341 00:52:09,490 --> 00:51:59,339 man anything about what Avi said 1342 00:52:14,510 --> 00:52:12,410 I think it's legitimate this time you 1343 00:52:15,829 --> 00:52:14,520 know I'll just add two uh here and if he 1344 00:52:18,349 --> 00:52:15,839 comes back I'll throw it immediately to 1345 00:52:20,150 --> 00:52:18,359 Chris there but uh a personal reflection 1346 00:52:23,030 --> 00:52:20,160 I have about this is you know I had 1347 00:52:24,410 --> 00:52:23,040 never guessed uh that uh within a couple 1348 00:52:27,589 --> 00:52:24,420 of years of launching the debrief I 1349 00:52:29,750 --> 00:52:27,599 would be in addition to uh writing about 1350 00:52:31,430 --> 00:52:29,760 this topic myself as I've endeavored to 1351 00:52:34,490 --> 00:52:31,440 do for the better part of the last two 1352 00:52:36,049 --> 00:52:34,500 decades uh but uh if in indeed you'd 1353 00:52:37,910 --> 00:52:36,059 told me I'd be also accepting 1354 00:52:41,569 --> 00:52:37,920 Publications from and editing the work 1355 00:52:44,030 --> 00:52:41,579 of avilo Jacques valet Ryan Graves uh 1356 00:52:46,190 --> 00:52:44,040 Ralph Blumenthal Chris Mellon Leslie 1357 00:52:47,809 --> 00:52:46,200 Kane as editor-in-chief of this 1358 00:52:49,370 --> 00:52:47,819 publication I'd have called you a liar 1359 00:52:52,010 --> 00:52:49,380 but again I'm very proud that these 1360 00:52:54,890 --> 00:52:52,020 people come to us and see although we 1361 00:52:56,809 --> 00:52:54,900 are not an explicitly UAP publication we 1362 00:52:59,450 --> 00:52:56,819 are a science publication and we are not 1363 00:53:01,130 --> 00:52:59,460 pro-uap so much as we are pro-science 1364 00:53:03,230 --> 00:53:01,140 applied to that as any other topic we 1365 00:53:05,150 --> 00:53:03,240 would cover I'm thrilled that these 1366 00:53:07,549 --> 00:53:05,160 people see our publication as being of 1367 00:53:09,890 --> 00:53:07,559 enough value to this dialogue that they 1368 00:53:11,270 --> 00:53:09,900 want that message uh brought to us and 1369 00:53:12,770 --> 00:53:11,280 they see us as a platform that can bring 1370 00:53:16,309 --> 00:53:12,780 that I think we've got Chris back now so 1371 00:53:19,450 --> 00:53:16,319 go ahead yeah am I here am I alive can 1372 00:53:21,770 --> 00:53:19,460 you hear me I think so go ahead buddy 1373 00:53:23,930 --> 00:53:21,780 what's going on man the only other time 1374 00:53:25,910 --> 00:53:23,940 I really have this problem was when the 1375 00:53:28,549 --> 00:53:25,920 wife was in the other U room using the 1376 00:53:29,809 --> 00:53:28,559 online so I do not know what's going on 1377 00:53:32,329 --> 00:53:29,819 you know what you guys have been having 1378 00:53:34,490 --> 00:53:32,339 crazy weather well sometimes weather but 1379 00:53:35,930 --> 00:53:34,500 also on Sundays I'll notice that every 1380 00:53:37,190 --> 00:53:35,940 now and then when everybody's at home on 1381 00:53:38,990 --> 00:53:37,200 the weekends and they're binge watching 1382 00:53:41,170 --> 00:53:39,000 Netflix and stuff sometimes the the 1383 00:53:46,190 --> 00:53:41,180 bandwidth strain can affect it and Plus 1384 00:53:50,329 --> 00:53:48,230 so go ahead though 1385 00:53:51,950 --> 00:53:50,339 your comments on Avi and uh his uh 1386 00:53:53,930 --> 00:53:51,960 scientific approach is outlined in that 1387 00:53:56,150 --> 00:53:53,940 recent opportunity I would like to yeah 1388 00:53:57,950 --> 00:53:56,160 I think that's key I think Avi makes a 1389 00:54:00,170 --> 00:53:57,960 good point I think a broader point I 1390 00:54:03,770 --> 00:54:00,180 want to take from all of this is that 1391 00:54:05,630 --> 00:54:03,780 the idea of disclosure has always been a 1392 00:54:07,549 --> 00:54:05,640 simple one the government sharing with 1393 00:54:10,250 --> 00:54:07,559 the people the information that it has 1394 00:54:13,549 --> 00:54:10,260 right that's more or less the idea of 1395 00:54:16,190 --> 00:54:13,559 disclosure and we're now in a situation 1396 00:54:17,990 --> 00:54:16,200 where disclosure can the answer from the 1397 00:54:19,190 --> 00:54:18,000 government the military can no longer be 1398 00:54:21,230 --> 00:54:19,200 we have nothing 1399 00:54:23,510 --> 00:54:21,240 right for a long time the answer could 1400 00:54:25,190 --> 00:54:23,520 be we don't have anything well now they 1401 00:54:28,609 --> 00:54:25,200 have a report that says they have a 1402 00:54:31,490 --> 00:54:28,619 bunch of stuff and uh what that stuff is 1403 00:54:34,849 --> 00:54:31,500 how classified sensors photos video 1404 00:54:37,190 --> 00:54:34,859 whatever that is we now know there's a 1405 00:54:39,410 --> 00:54:37,200 pile of stuff that the military has 1406 00:54:42,950 --> 00:54:39,420 including a number of incidents that 1407 00:54:45,109 --> 00:54:42,960 they can't explain uh so disclosure can 1408 00:54:47,870 --> 00:54:45,119 no longer be a uh sorry heck we just 1409 00:54:49,309 --> 00:54:47,880 don't have anything and it is now they 1410 00:54:50,870 --> 00:54:49,319 got a pile of stuff and they're going to 1411 00:54:52,849 --> 00:54:50,880 have to decide how much they can and 1412 00:54:55,250 --> 00:54:52,859 can't share with the public ultimately 1413 00:54:57,170 --> 00:54:55,260 and again there's our representatives 1414 00:54:58,970 --> 00:54:57,180 are in the mix so congressmen and 1415 00:55:01,910 --> 00:54:58,980 senators and congresswomen can now look 1416 00:55:03,829 --> 00:55:01,920 at that and say uh you know what I don't 1417 00:55:05,750 --> 00:55:03,839 care if it's this one little sensor 1418 00:55:07,250 --> 00:55:05,760 that's maybe a little classified here's 1419 00:55:10,609 --> 00:55:07,260 the part of this I can talk to my 1420 00:55:13,190 --> 00:55:10,619 constituents about so I I think the idea 1421 00:55:16,190 --> 00:55:13,200 of disclosure moves forward with the 1422 00:55:19,609 --> 00:55:16,200 acknowledgment that they have stuff 1423 00:55:22,010 --> 00:55:19,619 I love that moving forward Thomas thank 1424 00:55:24,349 --> 00:55:22,020 you so much again guys for the super 1425 00:55:27,829 --> 00:55:24,359 chats really appreciate it 1426 00:55:30,230 --> 00:55:27,839 um well guys let's I guess kind of move 1427 00:55:32,089 --> 00:55:30,240 on you know from the report uh there's a 1428 00:55:34,609 --> 00:55:32,099 couple other UFO stories that are 1429 00:55:37,010 --> 00:55:34,619 equally as exciting I think going on 1430 00:55:39,650 --> 00:55:37,020 right now uh a few of which were dropped 1431 00:55:42,109 --> 00:55:39,660 over at the debrief and whatnot but any 1432 00:55:44,150 --> 00:55:42,119 last words on the report before we move 1433 00:55:45,230 --> 00:55:44,160 on to our buddy Ryan Graves someone I 1434 00:55:47,270 --> 00:55:45,240 want to talk about 1435 00:55:49,670 --> 00:55:47,280 um any last words on this report and 1436 00:55:53,089 --> 00:55:49,680 what to look forward to in 2023 when it 1437 00:55:54,890 --> 00:55:53,099 comes to the to Arrow I guess and uh the 1438 00:55:57,170 --> 00:55:54,900 investigations going on Micah go ahead 1439 00:55:58,430 --> 00:55:57,180 I'm afraid not no more words because you 1440 00:56:01,069 --> 00:55:58,440 know at this point we're already about 1441 00:56:03,770 --> 00:56:01,079 three times as many words as there were 1442 00:56:06,790 --> 00:56:03,780 in the actual report itself so we'll 1443 00:56:09,290 --> 00:56:06,800 just leave it wasn't hard to do yeah 1444 00:56:10,970 --> 00:56:09,300 that's fair brother Chris Eddie last 1445 00:56:13,670 --> 00:56:10,980 words on the report before we move on 1446 00:56:15,410 --> 00:56:13,680 man uh you know I reached out to D Dean 1447 00:56:17,089 --> 00:56:15,420 Johnson who's looked in a lot of the 1448 00:56:19,430 --> 00:56:17,099 legislation and involved and everything 1449 00:56:21,890 --> 00:56:19,440 and I tried to figure out does this 1450 00:56:23,510 --> 00:56:21,900 reset the dates at all you know since we 1451 00:56:26,210 --> 00:56:23,520 were expecting a report at the end of 1452 00:56:29,030 --> 00:56:26,220 October and that thing was 70 plus days 1453 00:56:31,549 --> 00:56:29,040 late does this reset when we might get 1454 00:56:34,250 --> 00:56:31,559 the next report or when this next annual 1455 00:56:36,290 --> 00:56:34,260 report might come and he says it's it's 1456 00:56:38,930 --> 00:56:36,300 not completely clear and I'll do a 1457 00:56:40,609 --> 00:56:38,940 little more discussion of this on a show 1458 00:56:44,870 --> 00:56:40,619 later this week that we're doing at the 1459 00:56:46,430 --> 00:56:44,880 debrief uh but uh it doesn't appear that 1460 00:56:48,470 --> 00:56:46,440 it's going to change the reporting 1461 00:56:50,930 --> 00:56:48,480 timeline moving forward that we will 1462 00:56:53,809 --> 00:56:50,940 probably still look for another annual 1463 00:56:55,130 --> 00:56:53,819 report probably sometime in June yeah 1464 00:56:57,109 --> 00:56:55,140 I'll just add to that by the way Chris 1465 00:56:59,270 --> 00:56:57,119 again what's actually mandated by 1466 00:57:01,490 --> 00:56:59,280 Congress in the National Defense 1467 00:57:03,049 --> 00:57:01,500 authorization act those dates still 1468 00:57:04,849 --> 00:57:03,059 apply whether or not these agencies 1469 00:57:06,849 --> 00:57:04,859 comply with that and as we've seen they 1470 00:57:09,410 --> 00:57:06,859 don't and often in fact outside of UAP 1471 00:57:11,510 --> 00:57:09,420 that happens you know this is this is a 1472 00:57:14,329 --> 00:57:11,520 fairly common occurrence so yes the the 1473 00:57:15,829 --> 00:57:14,339 official reporting dates as mandated by 1474 00:57:18,290 --> 00:57:15,839 Congress remain in effect whether or not 1475 00:57:20,990 --> 00:57:18,300 they choose to adhere to those and and 1476 00:57:24,049 --> 00:57:21,000 actually deliver on time yeah 1477 00:57:28,010 --> 00:57:24,059 yep yep yeah and I'm telling you guys 1478 00:57:30,410 --> 00:57:28,020 over there at Eros if I don't get at 1479 00:57:33,549 --> 00:57:30,420 least one case in the next report I'm 1480 00:57:40,670 --> 00:57:36,109 someone can uh buy somewhere in the 1481 00:57:43,790 --> 00:57:40,680 skies for me I'm done telling you okay 1482 00:57:46,730 --> 00:57:43,800 um let's move on uh another story that 1483 00:57:49,910 --> 00:57:46,740 broke at the debrief was a opinion piece 1484 00:57:52,490 --> 00:57:49,920 by Ryan Graves one of the the pilots 1485 00:57:53,690 --> 00:57:52,500 from the East Coast incidents 1486 00:57:55,250 --> 00:57:53,700 um you know we've seen them on 1487 00:57:56,990 --> 00:57:55,260 television we've seen him in interviews 1488 00:57:58,730 --> 00:57:57,000 uh he's gonna be coming out with a 1489 00:58:00,170 --> 00:57:58,740 podcast which we have the trailer for 1490 00:58:03,829 --> 00:58:00,180 I'm going to show a little bit later 1491 00:58:05,809 --> 00:58:03,839 here uh but Micah tell us a little about 1492 00:58:08,150 --> 00:58:05,819 um how this all came about and what this 1493 00:58:10,670 --> 00:58:08,160 piece was over there I feel like we're 1494 00:58:14,390 --> 00:58:10,680 living in the year of um you know 1495 00:58:15,710 --> 00:58:14,400 Aviation safety in UFO so I'll be happy 1496 00:58:17,450 --> 00:58:15,720 to speak on that point but you might ask 1497 00:58:20,030 --> 00:58:17,460 Chris first because actually we we uh 1498 00:58:22,549 --> 00:58:20,040 have Chris to thank for yeah oh 1499 00:58:25,069 --> 00:58:22,559 fantastic to contribute that to us yeah 1500 00:58:28,250 --> 00:58:25,079 yeah please it was just a timing thing 1501 00:58:30,589 --> 00:58:28,260 you know I I spoke to Ryan last year uh 1502 00:58:33,710 --> 00:58:30,599 when he spoke at the aiaa conference 1503 00:58:35,750 --> 00:58:33,720 about safety and Aviation safety and uh 1504 00:58:38,210 --> 00:58:35,760 so I just kind of kept tabs on what he's 1505 00:58:40,250 --> 00:58:38,220 talking about on the internet and when 1506 00:58:43,069 --> 00:58:40,260 he when he came out and complained that 1507 00:58:47,450 --> 00:58:43,079 the uh the Wall Street Journal had run 1508 00:58:50,030 --> 00:58:47,460 these really biased articles uh that and 1509 00:58:51,589 --> 00:58:50,040 that he had offered a response as a guy 1510 00:58:53,630 --> 00:58:51,599 who's actually in the trenches who 1511 00:58:55,670 --> 00:58:53,640 somebody's actually been out there with 1512 00:58:58,190 --> 00:58:55,680 other aviators experiencing these 1513 00:59:00,650 --> 00:58:58,200 situations and he just jumped on Twitter 1514 00:59:03,170 --> 00:59:00,660 and said I can't believe they're turning 1515 00:59:05,510 --> 00:59:03,180 down my article and so I just jumped on 1516 00:59:07,609 --> 00:59:05,520 and told him hey at the debrief we'll 1517 00:59:09,589 --> 00:59:07,619 definitely run it and uh reach out to 1518 00:59:11,630 --> 00:59:09,599 our editor-in-chief Micah Hanks and 1519 00:59:14,930 --> 00:59:11,640 somehow those two gentlemen got together 1520 00:59:17,750 --> 00:59:14,940 and within I don't know 36 hours that 1521 00:59:21,170 --> 00:59:17,760 article was up and even 1522 00:59:22,870 --> 00:59:21,180 oh and the bandwidth strikes again I'll 1523 00:59:25,309 --> 00:59:22,880 just clarify 1524 00:59:26,630 --> 00:59:25,319 uh you know we generally don't reach out 1525 00:59:28,490 --> 00:59:26,640 to people and say hey we'll definitely 1526 00:59:30,410 --> 00:59:28,500 run your article having never read it or 1527 00:59:33,650 --> 00:59:30,420 seen your writing and regardless of 1528 00:59:36,410 --> 00:59:33,660 points you make uh but in in truth he's 1529 00:59:37,970 --> 00:59:36,420 seeing Chris Express to him he said in 1530 00:59:39,470 --> 00:59:37,980 his tweet you know our editor-in-chief 1531 00:59:40,910 --> 00:59:39,480 would be interested in talking with you 1532 00:59:43,309 --> 00:59:40,920 about that and so I did reach out to 1533 00:59:44,690 --> 00:59:43,319 Ryan and uh and I said to him I said if 1534 00:59:46,130 --> 00:59:44,700 you would be interested in submitting 1535 00:59:48,049 --> 00:59:46,140 your essay we'll consider it for 1536 00:59:49,609 --> 00:59:48,059 publication that's of course the process 1537 00:59:51,829 --> 00:59:49,619 the editorial kind of standard that we 1538 00:59:53,990 --> 00:59:51,839 always hold uh and I want to Express 1539 00:59:56,030 --> 00:59:54,000 gratitude not only to Ryan to agreeing 1540 00:59:59,030 --> 00:59:56,040 to do that but also to Haley Morris who 1541 01:00:01,549 --> 00:59:59,040 is assisting with the aia's UAP 1542 01:00:05,089 --> 01:00:01,559 community that Ryan is currently the 1543 01:00:07,250 --> 01:00:05,099 chair of Haley is really a great um 1544 01:00:09,650 --> 01:00:07,260 individual in terms of her work behind 1545 01:00:11,690 --> 01:00:09,660 the scenes helping to edit a lot of uh 1546 01:00:13,130 --> 01:00:11,700 different uh contributions by bigger 1547 01:00:14,870 --> 01:00:13,140 names you know and again we need people 1548 01:00:17,030 --> 01:00:14,880 who are helping those who are delivering 1549 01:00:19,430 --> 01:00:17,040 the message to make their messages 1550 01:00:23,089 --> 01:00:19,440 concise and as accurate as possible so 1551 01:00:24,829 --> 01:00:23,099 once Ryan had submitted his uh his op-ed 1552 01:00:25,970 --> 01:00:24,839 I'll give a bit of background on that in 1553 01:00:27,589 --> 01:00:25,980 a moment but you know Haley and I 1554 01:00:30,710 --> 01:00:27,599 admittedly went to work on the editorial 1555 01:00:32,930 --> 01:00:30,720 process and as we would treat any op-ed 1556 01:00:34,849 --> 01:00:32,940 length considerations you know grammar 1557 01:00:36,710 --> 01:00:34,859 everything like that uh you know it 1558 01:00:38,150 --> 01:00:36,720 underwent the exact same editorial 1559 01:00:39,650 --> 01:00:38,160 process that any submission or anything 1560 01:00:40,789 --> 01:00:39,660 that you know Chris or I or one of our 1561 01:00:43,910 --> 01:00:40,799 team would submit to the debrief 1562 01:00:46,609 --> 01:00:43,920 republication underwent uh and uh that 1563 01:00:48,650 --> 01:00:46,619 said the finished product to me was 1564 01:00:51,289 --> 01:00:48,660 something that I felt as an editor was 1565 01:00:53,630 --> 01:00:51,299 extremely powerful 1566 01:00:55,250 --> 01:00:53,640 uh Chris really hit the nail on the head 1567 01:00:56,990 --> 01:00:55,260 when he said you know this guy had been 1568 01:00:59,089 --> 01:00:57,000 out there in the trenches and I think 1569 01:01:00,470 --> 01:00:59,099 you know Holman Jenkins Jr who is an 1570 01:01:03,589 --> 01:01:00,480 editor there at the Wall Street Journal 1571 01:01:05,270 --> 01:01:03,599 who had written several op-eds about UAP 1572 01:01:06,950 --> 01:01:05,280 and taking a fairly dismissive attitude 1573 01:01:08,990 --> 01:01:06,960 again preemptively prior to the report 1574 01:01:10,789 --> 01:01:09,000 being released arguing that most of 1575 01:01:12,950 --> 01:01:10,799 these things appear to be 1576 01:01:15,410 --> 01:01:12,960 um balloons and drones and things like 1577 01:01:17,809 --> 01:01:15,420 this look Mr Jenkins is entitled to his 1578 01:01:18,950 --> 01:01:17,819 opinions like anybody else is and I 1579 01:01:21,530 --> 01:01:18,960 don't fault him for having those 1580 01:01:24,770 --> 01:01:21,540 opinions the issue I did have was that 1581 01:01:27,349 --> 01:01:24,780 after several of these here we have a 1582 01:01:30,190 --> 01:01:27,359 you know former fa-18 Super Hornet 1583 01:01:34,430 --> 01:01:30,200 fighter pilot who served in the U.S Navy 1584 01:01:37,190 --> 01:01:34,440 uh I happen to know very uh well uh Ryan 1585 01:01:38,809 --> 01:01:37,200 Graves background I happen to be very 1586 01:01:40,609 --> 01:01:38,819 familiar with you know some of the 1587 01:01:43,069 --> 01:01:40,619 operations that he assisted in in the 1588 01:01:44,510 --> 01:01:43,079 Middle East and what have you uh and 1589 01:01:47,150 --> 01:01:44,520 when it comes to our military servicemen 1590 01:01:49,849 --> 01:01:47,160 and women I have a profound respect for 1591 01:01:51,230 --> 01:01:49,859 their efforts uh in the furtherance of 1592 01:01:53,809 --> 01:01:51,240 the American way of life and really 1593 01:01:57,109 --> 01:01:53,819 really truly internationally speaking 1594 01:02:00,829 --> 01:01:57,119 you know the sustainment of 1595 01:02:03,230 --> 01:02:00,839 order right peace and and all the things 1596 01:02:05,510 --> 01:02:03,240 that we hold dear we should at least as 1597 01:02:07,910 --> 01:02:05,520 a 21st century Society a global 1598 01:02:08,990 --> 01:02:07,920 citizenry you might say so all that said 1599 01:02:10,069 --> 01:02:09,000 I mean this is a message that's 1600 01:02:12,170 --> 01:02:10,079 important to everybody not just 1601 01:02:13,609 --> 01:02:12,180 Americans but I was a little dismayed 1602 01:02:14,990 --> 01:02:13,619 that the Wall Street Journal didn't seem 1603 01:02:18,890 --> 01:02:15,000 to think it was important enough to take 1604 01:02:19,690 --> 01:02:18,900 the words of a U.S pilot you know a 1605 01:02:22,190 --> 01:02:19,700 military 1606 01:02:24,470 --> 01:02:22,200 member who is who has had these 1607 01:02:26,510 --> 01:02:24,480 experiences himself and see that as 1608 01:02:29,089 --> 01:02:26,520 being as important for publication as 1609 01:02:32,089 --> 01:02:29,099 the opinion of an editor who has an 1610 01:02:34,430 --> 01:02:32,099 obvious bias against this subject and so 1611 01:02:36,710 --> 01:02:34,440 if Mr Jenkins has his right as he does 1612 01:02:39,770 --> 01:02:36,720 to have his opinions and to publish them 1613 01:02:41,270 --> 01:02:39,780 I think it's only fair that Ryan Graves 1614 01:02:43,549 --> 01:02:41,280 people like that who have had these 1615 01:02:44,990 --> 01:02:43,559 experiences themselves and who have 1616 01:02:47,210 --> 01:02:45,000 experienced them while in the line of 1617 01:02:48,890 --> 01:02:47,220 duty he should be able to have his say 1618 01:02:50,630 --> 01:02:48,900 as well that's fundamentally important 1619 01:02:52,069 --> 01:02:50,640 and so for those and no one really did 1620 01:02:53,270 --> 01:02:52,079 but I would just say that for those 1621 01:02:55,309 --> 01:02:53,280 because I'm sure there are probably some 1622 01:02:57,349 --> 01:02:55,319 who would say well the debrief tends to 1623 01:03:00,710 --> 01:02:57,359 be very much more biased you know toward 1624 01:03:03,530 --> 01:03:00,720 pro-uap although we often do feature 1625 01:03:06,049 --> 01:03:03,540 what I would say is commentary that 1626 01:03:08,450 --> 01:03:06,059 advances The Narrative on UAP ESP 1627 01:03:10,309 --> 01:03:08,460 especially as it relates to science when 1628 01:03:11,750 --> 01:03:10,319 the Ukrainian UAP study came out which 1629 01:03:14,690 --> 01:03:11,760 we were the first to report on by the 1630 01:03:16,609 --> 01:03:14,700 way when that came out and then the 1631 01:03:18,109 --> 01:03:16,619 Ukrainian National Academy of Sciences 1632 01:03:20,030 --> 01:03:18,119 came out and said we've actually 1633 01:03:21,710 --> 01:03:20,040 essentially dismissed this entire study 1634 01:03:23,809 --> 01:03:21,720 nobody reported on that side of the 1635 01:03:26,270 --> 01:03:23,819 story after being the first to report on 1636 01:03:27,829 --> 01:03:26,280 that then we were the only media outlet 1637 01:03:29,930 --> 01:03:27,839 that I know of that talked about the 1638 01:03:32,270 --> 01:03:29,940 fact that the study was essentially 1639 01:03:34,069 --> 01:03:32,280 rejected and finally got a quote from 1640 01:03:36,470 --> 01:03:34,079 the actual principal author of that 1641 01:03:38,150 --> 01:03:36,480 study with a lot of these pilot 1642 01:03:40,490 --> 01:03:38,160 sightings and again taking the pilot 1643 01:03:42,410 --> 01:03:40,500 safety issue very seriously the 1644 01:03:44,630 --> 01:03:42,420 so-called racetrack UAP thing when that 1645 01:03:46,730 --> 01:03:44,640 broke several weeks ago there's another 1646 01:03:48,950 --> 01:03:46,740 side to that story too because it became 1647 01:03:50,210 --> 01:03:48,960 abundantly clear in the in the days and 1648 01:03:52,309 --> 01:03:50,220 the weeks following those initial 1649 01:03:55,130 --> 01:03:52,319 reports that a lot of these Pilots were 1650 01:03:56,569 --> 01:03:55,140 seeing Starling satellites and so Ryan 1651 01:03:58,549 --> 01:03:56,579 like you've done in the past having Mick 1652 01:04:00,230 --> 01:03:58,559 West on your program and being open to 1653 01:04:02,690 --> 01:04:00,240 dialogue from both sides which is 1654 01:04:04,069 --> 01:04:02,700 fundamentally important to me I think we 1655 01:04:05,030 --> 01:04:04,079 have to be able to hear both sides of 1656 01:04:08,510 --> 01:04:05,040 the story 1657 01:04:10,609 --> 01:04:08,520 yeah uh we also featured a commentary 1658 01:04:12,349 --> 01:04:10,619 from Mick West commentary from Aviation 1659 01:04:13,490 --> 01:04:12,359 professionals Ryan Graves offered a 1660 01:04:15,770 --> 01:04:13,500 quote for that and we told the other 1661 01:04:18,049 --> 01:04:15,780 side of that story yeah some of these 1662 01:04:20,510 --> 01:04:18,059 UFO sightings actually have a more 1663 01:04:22,849 --> 01:04:20,520 prosaic explanation but there's still an 1664 01:04:24,829 --> 01:04:22,859 underlying theme that unites all this 1665 01:04:27,109 --> 01:04:24,839 and that is that there are Aviation 1666 01:04:28,910 --> 01:04:27,119 safety challenges that result from 1667 01:04:30,589 --> 01:04:28,920 Pilots seeing things they can't identify 1668 01:04:32,930 --> 01:04:30,599 and being potentially distracted by 1669 01:04:35,089 --> 01:04:32,940 these objects so we take pride in trying 1670 01:04:36,950 --> 01:04:35,099 to tell the other side of the story in 1671 01:04:39,049 --> 01:04:36,960 various different cases which may not 1672 01:04:41,150 --> 01:04:39,059 always fall in step with people's biases 1673 01:04:43,130 --> 01:04:41,160 toward this subject when Holman Jenkins 1674 01:04:46,370 --> 01:04:43,140 and the Wall Street Journal repeatedly 1675 01:04:48,049 --> 01:04:46,380 offered a one-sided view on the topic if 1676 01:04:49,849 --> 01:04:48,059 their publication wouldn't balance that 1677 01:04:51,890 --> 01:04:49,859 equation the debrief chose to and so we 1678 01:04:54,230 --> 01:04:51,900 were proud to publish Ryan Graves op-ed 1679 01:04:56,030 --> 01:04:54,240 where he did outline all these Aviation 1680 01:04:57,770 --> 01:04:56,040 challenges not only the military 1681 01:04:58,970 --> 01:04:57,780 personnel but also the commercial pilots 1682 01:05:01,910 --> 01:04:58,980 face 1683 01:05:04,490 --> 01:05:01,920 yeah right and I'm so happy you did that 1684 01:05:07,370 --> 01:05:04,500 you know to give him that opportunity to 1685 01:05:08,150 --> 01:05:07,380 do so because again I I can't stress how 1686 01:05:10,430 --> 01:05:08,160 many 1687 01:05:14,329 --> 01:05:10,440 um you know every time I go on a plane 1688 01:05:16,730 --> 01:05:14,339 I'm so like I I I'm inspired to you know 1689 01:05:19,309 --> 01:05:16,740 on the way out ask the pilot you know 1690 01:05:21,530 --> 01:05:19,319 have you ever seen anything or even the 1691 01:05:23,210 --> 01:05:21,540 flight attendants I mean we've heard in 1692 01:05:26,690 --> 01:05:23,220 some of the articles in the past from 1693 01:05:30,230 --> 01:05:26,700 the debrief of events where you know one 1694 01:05:33,890 --> 01:05:30,240 one uh you know civil aviation plane 1695 01:05:35,690 --> 01:05:33,900 pilot had to take a nosedive to avoid an 1696 01:05:39,049 --> 01:05:35,700 object and two of the flight attendants 1697 01:05:40,609 --> 01:05:39,059 were injured during a UAP event so this 1698 01:05:42,950 --> 01:05:40,619 is the kind of stuff that's going on up 1699 01:05:44,450 --> 01:05:42,960 there talk about uh collisions with 1700 01:05:47,150 --> 01:05:44,460 these things maybe it hasn't happened 1701 01:05:49,430 --> 01:05:47,160 yet with military Pilots but it sure as 1702 01:05:51,530 --> 01:05:49,440 hell happening in the civilian World 1703 01:05:52,910 --> 01:05:51,540 well you know again look at Pat Ryder's 1704 01:05:54,530 --> 01:05:52,920 statement in the audio that she featured 1705 01:05:56,210 --> 01:05:54,540 from earlier again where he's saying 1706 01:05:57,829 --> 01:05:56,220 that initially no military pilots and 1707 01:06:00,710 --> 01:05:57,839 then he goes on to say no U.S Pilots 1708 01:06:02,329 --> 01:06:00,720 have had any kind of collisions but may 1709 01:06:03,950 --> 01:06:02,339 be true at least as far as known 1710 01:06:05,690 --> 01:06:03,960 collisions but I mean there are some 1711 01:06:07,370 --> 01:06:05,700 other suspected instances and outside 1712 01:06:08,690 --> 01:06:07,380 the United States the incident that 1713 01:06:10,730 --> 01:06:08,700 you're referring to specifically was a 1714 01:06:13,309 --> 01:06:10,740 Porter Airlines aircraft that was coming 1715 01:06:16,190 --> 01:06:13,319 in for landing in Toronto uh in the 1716 01:06:18,289 --> 01:06:16,200 early morning back in 2016 uh the pilots 1717 01:06:22,370 --> 01:06:18,299 observed an object that they likened to 1718 01:06:24,410 --> 01:06:22,380 being a large upright flying donut that 1719 01:06:25,849 --> 01:06:24,420 was on a potential Collision Course with 1720 01:06:28,370 --> 01:06:25,859 their aircraft and so they had to 1721 01:06:29,930 --> 01:06:28,380 override the autopilot and take evasive 1722 01:06:31,910 --> 01:06:29,940 maneuvers they did a nose dive as you 1723 01:06:33,529 --> 01:06:31,920 described which caused the two flight 1724 01:06:35,029 --> 01:06:33,539 attendants on board the aircraft to be 1725 01:06:36,710 --> 01:06:35,039 thrown up against the wall one hit the 1726 01:06:37,670 --> 01:06:36,720 ceiling they only have minor injuries 1727 01:06:39,349 --> 01:06:37,680 and they were taken to a hospital 1728 01:06:42,470 --> 01:06:39,359 immediately thereafter so they were okay 1729 01:06:45,349 --> 01:06:42,480 but I mean this is a case in recent 1730 01:06:46,910 --> 01:06:45,359 memory that I think clearly outlines the 1731 01:06:49,430 --> 01:06:46,920 in the fundamental importance of 1732 01:06:51,650 --> 01:06:49,440 understanding the safety challenges that 1733 01:06:53,329 --> 01:06:51,660 UAP can potentially represent so again 1734 01:06:55,130 --> 01:06:53,339 here's some other issue I got to talk 1735 01:06:58,069 --> 01:06:55,140 about all those fine folks out there on 1736 01:07:00,829 --> 01:06:58,079 UFO Twitter who are saying drop the BS 1737 01:07:03,289 --> 01:07:00,839 threat narrative of UAP aren't a threat 1738 01:07:05,630 --> 01:07:03,299 they don't mean us any harm first of all 1739 01:07:08,089 --> 01:07:05,640 how do you know that did they tell you 1740 01:07:10,789 --> 01:07:08,099 do you have any evidence whatsoever of 1741 01:07:12,529 --> 01:07:10,799 that second of all what people who are 1742 01:07:15,049 --> 01:07:12,539 constantly harping on the drop the 1743 01:07:17,870 --> 01:07:15,059 threat narrative element you know what 1744 01:07:19,849 --> 01:07:17,880 they miss is in almost every instance 1745 01:07:21,650 --> 01:07:19,859 where a Potential Threat is mentioned it 1746 01:07:23,809 --> 01:07:21,660 is mentioned just as such a Potential 1747 01:07:25,910 --> 01:07:23,819 Threat sometimes it's also referred to 1748 01:07:27,829 --> 01:07:25,920 as an indirect threat they're not saying 1749 01:07:29,930 --> 01:07:27,839 UAP are armed with lasers and they're 1750 01:07:31,970 --> 01:07:29,940 showing overt hostility toward U.S 1751 01:07:33,589 --> 01:07:31,980 Pilots that's not what's being said what 1752 01:07:35,390 --> 01:07:33,599 is being said is that there are pilots 1753 01:07:37,069 --> 01:07:35,400 who say that they see UAP when there's 1754 01:07:40,069 --> 01:07:37,079 anything in our airspace that does not 1755 01:07:43,010 --> 01:07:40,079 obey the rules okay the other Pilots 1756 01:07:44,690 --> 01:07:43,020 have to play through or play by you know 1757 01:07:47,450 --> 01:07:44,700 if you're a U.S pilot and you're 1758 01:07:50,210 --> 01:07:47,460 operating in U.S airspace then you have 1759 01:07:51,650 --> 01:07:50,220 to operate in accordance with FAA 1760 01:07:53,390 --> 01:07:51,660 Federal Aviation Administration 1761 01:07:54,529 --> 01:07:53,400 guidelines okay if you don't it's 1762 01:07:56,690 --> 01:07:54,539 against the law that's a federal 1763 01:07:58,430 --> 01:07:56,700 offenses I understand it so the thing is 1764 01:08:00,470 --> 01:07:58,440 is that if there are objects in our 1765 01:08:02,329 --> 01:08:00,480 airspace they that don't conform to 1766 01:08:04,789 --> 01:08:02,339 those same standards that don't obey by 1767 01:08:07,010 --> 01:08:04,799 those rules then we have to acknowledge 1768 01:08:08,450 --> 01:08:07,020 the Potential Threat that's what we mean 1769 01:08:11,029 --> 01:08:08,460 when there's a threat it's not to try 1770 01:08:13,130 --> 01:08:11,039 and issue concerns or to try and drive 1771 01:08:15,049 --> 01:08:13,140 suspicions or to try and instill chaos 1772 01:08:17,030 --> 01:08:15,059 and fear in the public by saying that 1773 01:08:18,950 --> 01:08:17,040 the UAP may be hostile that there's an 1774 01:08:21,769 --> 01:08:18,960 invasion coming people fundamentally 1775 01:08:23,809 --> 01:08:21,779 misunderstand what the Potential Threat 1776 01:08:26,030 --> 01:08:23,819 means that's what that means that's what 1777 01:08:27,769 --> 01:08:26,040 the challenge means we have to recognize 1778 01:08:29,269 --> 01:08:27,779 that and I'm so glad yet again that 1779 01:08:32,530 --> 01:08:29,279 there are Aviation professionals like 1780 01:08:34,669 --> 01:08:32,540 Ryan Graves now chair of the UAP 1781 01:08:37,550 --> 01:08:34,679 subcommittee or or Community there 1782 01:08:39,709 --> 01:08:37,560 within the aiaa I'm so glad that Ryan is 1783 01:08:41,570 --> 01:08:39,719 trying to raise public awareness about 1784 01:08:43,370 --> 01:08:41,580 that and when still in people's minds 1785 01:08:45,829 --> 01:08:43,380 that no there's not a direct danger or 1786 01:08:48,829 --> 01:08:45,839 threat there's never been any data that 1787 01:08:51,769 --> 01:08:48,839 I know of that strongly suggests broadly 1788 01:08:53,930 --> 01:08:51,779 that UAP represent a you know a kind of 1789 01:08:55,669 --> 01:08:53,940 a threat or or that they exhibit some 1790 01:08:58,910 --> 01:08:55,679 sort of consistent overt hostility 1791 01:09:01,130 --> 01:08:58,920 there's very little data but that 1792 01:09:02,749 --> 01:09:01,140 indirect threat as a result of objects 1793 01:09:04,729 --> 01:09:02,759 that are sometimes in our airspace that 1794 01:09:07,249 --> 01:09:04,739 potentially may be behaving in ways that 1795 01:09:09,229 --> 01:09:07,259 could cause challenges or even safety 1796 01:09:10,490 --> 01:09:09,239 concerns for Pilots that we have to take 1797 01:09:13,550 --> 01:09:10,500 seriously 1798 01:09:16,370 --> 01:09:13,560 absolutely and you know Ryan is taking 1799 01:09:18,709 -->

Chris worked on over there 1813 01:09:51,769 --> 01:09:48,779 at the debrief uh one is called physics 1814 01:09:55,850 --> 01:09:51,779 Think Tank proposes method for detecting 1815 01:09:57,530 --> 01:09:55,860 ET spacecraft using gravitational waves 1816 01:09:59,930 --> 01:09:57,540 um really interesting that came out 1817 01:10:02,229 --> 01:09:59,940 right at the tail end of 2022 and in 1818 01:10:05,209 --> 01:10:02,239 2023 he just came out with an article 1819 01:10:08,030 --> 01:10:05,219 called Rocky exoplanet nearly the same 1820 01:10:10,970 --> 01:10:08,040 size as Earth found in Stars Capital 1821 01:10:12,590 --> 01:10:10,980 zone so again Christopher playing head 1822 01:10:14,870 --> 01:10:12,600 of science over there at the debrief is 1823 01:10:17,150 --> 01:10:14,880 just bringing the ET question to the 1824 01:10:19,550 --> 01:10:17,160 Forefront please go check out those 1825 01:10:22,130 --> 01:10:19,560 articles and a huge thank you to Chris 1826 01:10:24,590

Chris 1829 01:10:30,950 --> 01:10:28,920 thank you 1830 01:10:32,750 --> 01:10:30,960 um let's go ahead and play the clip for 1831 01:10:34,610 --> 01:10:32,760 um Ryan Graves podcast Micah and then 1832 01:10:36,410 --> 01:10:34,620 we'll come back on the other side with 1833 01:10:39,830 --> 01:10:36,420 another piece that just dropped at the 1834 01:10:43,270 --> 01:10:39,840 debrief from a very prominent UFO 1835 01:10:47,270 --> 01:10:43,280 researcher but uh yeah let's go 1836 01:10:49,490 --> 01:10:47,280 buckle up baby another UFO podcast guys 1837 01:10:52,850 --> 01:10:49,500 just when I thought we were safe like uh 1838 01:10:55,250 --> 01:10:52,860 now we've got Mr Graves coming into our 1839 01:11:00,709 --> 01:10:55,260 territory but I can't wait 1840 01:11:04,910 --> 01:11:02,510 you know you and I have been doing this 1841 01:11:06,950 --> 01:11:04,920 forever the thing I love about the 1842 01:11:09,229 --> 01:11:06,960 podcasting World maybe not UFO Twitter 1843 01:11:10,669 --> 01:11:09,239 so much although I've made some amazing 1844 01:11:13,310 --> 01:11:10,679 friends there but the podcasting world 1845 01:11:15,649 --> 01:11:13,320 is it's so supportive and we just build 1846 01:11:17,330 --> 01:11:15,659 each other up you know when when Andy 1847 01:11:19,490 --> 01:11:17,340 over at that UFO podcast came out 1848 01:11:21,709 --> 01:11:19,500 everyone was like look out Sprague look 1849 01:11:24,290 --> 01:11:21,719 out Hanks you've got some competition 1850 01:11:26,330 --> 01:11:24,300 we don't see it that way Andy and I are 1851 01:11:28,010 --> 01:11:26,340 like the closest to friends he was in 1852 01:11:30,950 --> 01:11:28,020 the chat here earlier 1853 01:11:32,450 --> 01:11:30,960 um we only help each other so uh yeah 1854 01:11:35,630 --> 01:11:32,460 what do you think he's coming out with 1855 01:11:37,790 --> 01:11:35,640 merged um yeah first of all um first of 1856 01:11:39,590 --> 01:11:37,800 all I'm thrilled uh and all your points 1857 01:11:42,050 --> 01:11:39,600 are are spot on again the more the 1858 01:11:44,750 --> 01:11:42,060 merrier in my view we need more dialogue 1859 01:11:45,890 --> 01:11:44,760 in this in this area and again uh you 1860 01:11:48,169 --> 01:11:45,900 know the Wall Street Journal and other 1861 01:11:50,450 --> 01:11:48,179 Publications have a right to publish 1862 01:11:52,270 --> 01:11:50,460 what they deem fit for publication they 1863 01:11:54,590 --> 01:11:52,280 are not required to have to feature 1864 01:11:56,149 --> 01:11:54,600 perspectives of those you know like Ryan 1865 01:11:58,910 --> 01:11:56,159 Graves or anybody else and as much as 1866 01:12:01,189 --> 01:11:58,920 the debrief tries to queer applicable 1867 01:12:03,350 --> 01:12:01,199 where it can be done responsibly we try 1868 01:12:04,970 --> 01:12:03,360 to offer a perspective you know from 1869 01:12:06,890 --> 01:12:04,980 from those as well as Skeptics you know 1870 01:12:08,930 --> 01:12:06,900 who want to weigh in on this subject the 1871 01:12:11,330 --> 01:12:08,940 podcast environment is great because it 1872 01:12:12,530 --> 01:12:11,340 has the ability to provide long-form 1873 01:12:15,950 --> 01:12:12,540 discussion 1874 01:12:17,750 --> 01:12:15,960 about these issues and Ryan's is a voice 1875 01:12:19,250 --> 01:12:17,760 that you know is all I think pretty 1876 01:12:20,750 --> 01:12:19,260 evident at this point it's it's a voice 1877 01:12:22,189 --> 01:12:20,760 I think that we need more of out there 1878 01:12:25,430 --> 01:12:22,199 I'm glad to see him going on shows like 1879 01:12:27,169 --> 01:12:25,440 Lex Friedman and Joe Rogan's podcasts uh 1880 01:12:29,810 --> 01:12:27,179 but him having merged is going to be 1881 01:12:31,729 --> 01:12:29,820 just another step toward removing this 1882 01:12:33,770 --> 01:12:31,739 stigma that's the resounding message and 1883 01:12:35,330 --> 01:12:33,780 pretty much all of Ryan's work right now 1884 01:12:37,430 --> 01:12:35,340 is he's saying you know let's take this 1885 01:12:39,169 --> 01:12:37,440 issue seriously and how it relates to 1886 01:12:40,490 --> 01:12:39,179 aviators but let's remove these stigmas 1887 01:12:42,709 --> 01:12:40,500 so that they're willing to come forward 1888 01:12:44,270 --> 01:12:42,719 and talk about this and so you know he 1889 01:12:47,750 --> 01:12:44,280 very much one of those Pilots the first 1890 01:12:50,570 --> 01:12:47,760 really outside of Dave fraver on a few 1891 01:12:51,950 --> 01:12:50,580 of the other notable uh early uh you 1892 01:12:54,110 --> 01:12:51,960 know focuses of those New York Times 1893 01:12:55,790 --> 01:12:54,120 that first article from 2017 but the 1894 01:12:57,229 --> 01:12:55,800 very next one the follow-up in 2019 1895 01:13:00,110 --> 01:12:57,239 right there front and center there's 1896 01:13:02,330 --> 01:13:00,120 Ryan Graves uh in the New York Times he 1897 01:13:05,149 --> 01:13:02,340 was the first uh to come forward about 1898 01:13:06,950 --> 01:13:05,159 the 2014-2015 USS Theodore Roosevelt 1899 01:13:08,510 --> 01:13:06,960 incidents and to say Hey you know our 1900 01:13:09,770 --> 01:13:08,520 military is still having these 1901 01:13:11,750 --> 01:13:09,780 encounters they're still seeing things 1902 01:13:13,610 --> 01:13:11,760 they can't explain I'm very glad to say 1903 01:13:15,110 --> 01:13:13,620 I got a call with Ryan and tomorrow 1904 01:13:16,970 --> 01:13:15,120 in fact and he's not going to be 1905 01:13:20,030 --> 01:13:16,980 catching up and uh and I hope to 1906 01:13:22,430 --> 01:13:20,040 continue to support the aiaa's efforts 1907 01:13:24,410 --> 01:13:22,440 and of course Ryan's personal efforts 1908 01:13:26,930 --> 01:13:24,420 and that space going forward through 1909 01:13:31,189 --> 01:13:26,940 2023 and on into the future 1910 01:13:33,229 --> 01:13:31,199 absolutely well Future's one thing the 1911 01:13:36,169 --> 01:13:33,239 past is another and we have a gentleman 1912 01:13:38,090 --> 01:13:36,179 who has done so much for this field I 1913 01:13:40,430 --> 01:13:38,100 don't even know where to begin I know 1914 01:13:43,490 --> 01:13:40,440 both of us had the immense pleasure of 1915 01:13:46,010 --> 01:13:43,500 having him on our shows with the uh 1916 01:13:49,250 --> 01:13:46,020 Second Edition release uh release 1917 01:13:52,430 --> 01:13:49,260 release of his book Trinity and that was 1918 01:13:55,130 --> 01:13:52,440 the one and only Jacques valet and 1919 01:13:58,189 --> 01:13:55,140 Boom Out of Nowhere the debrief drops in 1920 01:14:00,290 --> 01:13:58,199 an article by Jacque Valley uh was it 1921 01:14:02,630 --> 01:14:00,300 yesterday or the day before it was 1922 01:14:04,910 --> 01:14:02,640 yesterday okay tell us how this came 1923 01:14:07,430 --> 01:14:04,920 about and uh give us a little background 1924 01:14:10,490 --> 01:14:07,440 on what Mr valet is writing over there 1925 01:14:11,810 --> 01:14:10,500 at the debrief well uh you know uh we 1926 01:14:13,490 --> 01:14:11,820 have Chrissy Newton to thank for this 1927 01:14:16,130 --> 01:14:13,500 who by the way I also want to mention in 1928 01:14:19,250 --> 01:14:16,140 late 2022 uh Chrissy shared her first 1929 01:14:20,630 --> 01:14:19,260 two bylines uh on a couple of articles 1930 01:14:22,490 --> 01:14:20,640 that we did the first which was talking 1931 01:14:23,510 --> 01:14:22,500 about the racetrack uaps and then the 1932 01:14:24,950 --> 01:14:23,520 second the follow-up that was 1933 01:14:26,930 --> 01:14:24,960 illustrating the more skeptical side of 1934 01:14:29,030 --> 01:14:26,940 that argument the possible starlink 1935 01:14:31,430 --> 01:14:29,040 connection which I mean is undeniable in 1936 01:14:34,490 --> 01:14:31,440 many of those cases but illustrating how 1937 01:14:35,930 --> 01:14:34,500 that's still a pilot safety issue which 1938 01:14:38,630 --> 01:14:35,940 again is very fundamentally a part of 1939 01:14:41,149 --> 01:14:38,640 Ryan Graves uh message too that said 1940 01:14:43,669 --> 01:14:41,159 coming over to the uh Jacques valet uh 1941 01:14:45,290 --> 01:14:43,679 op-ed this was something that again uh 1942 01:14:47,270 --> 01:14:45,300 Chrissy played a hand in helping to 1943 01:14:48,169 --> 01:14:47,280 arrange 1944 01:14:51,770 --> 01:14:48,179 um 1945 01:14:53,330 --> 01:14:51,780 I always want qualified scientists who 1946 01:14:55,310 --> 01:14:53,340 can speak to this subject and there are 1947 01:14:57,290 --> 01:14:55,320 two kinds of scientists these days who 1948 01:14:59,090 --> 01:14:57,300 are engaged with this topic 1949 01:15:00,290 --> 01:14:59,100 there are those who are new to the 1950 01:15:03,470 --> 01:15:00,300 phenomenon 1951 01:15:05,689 --> 01:15:03,480 and who have a again an admirable 1952 01:15:07,850 --> 01:15:05,699 interest and maybe level of knowledge 1953 01:15:09,350 --> 01:15:07,860 and some incredible ideas about how we 1954 01:15:12,169 --> 01:15:09,360 might be able to resolve the UAP 1955 01:15:14,570 --> 01:15:12,179 question or at least come to a broader 1956 01:15:15,890 --> 01:15:14,580 better understanding of it and then 1957 01:15:17,270 --> 01:15:15,900 there are those who are the scientists 1958 01:15:19,550 --> 01:15:17,280 who were involved back before it was 1959 01:15:22,910 --> 01:15:19,560 cool to be involved and who had put 1960 01:15:25,070 --> 01:15:22,920 their reputations at risk after having 1961 01:15:27,470 --> 01:15:25,080 written extensively about this and 1962 01:15:29,209 --> 01:15:27,480 appeared at conferences and and appeared 1963 01:15:31,250 --> 01:15:29,219 on television programs and documentaries 1964 01:15:33,729 --> 01:15:31,260 advocating the need for science applied 1965 01:15:36,709 --> 01:15:33,739 to this subject well before 2017. 1966 01:15:38,270 --> 01:15:36,719 there's probably no individual who has 1967 01:15:41,270 --> 01:15:38,280 been more involved in that regard than 1968 01:15:44,090 --> 01:15:41,280 Jacques valet again at the time back in 1969 01:15:45,770 --> 01:15:44,100 the 1960s when he was he was actually 1970 01:15:47,570 --> 01:15:45,780 working under Jay Allen heineck at 1971 01:15:49,729 --> 01:15:47,580 Northwestern University he was 1972 01:15:52,010 --> 01:15:49,739 completing his PhD or had just completed 1973 01:15:55,370 --> 01:15:52,020 it and uh was a young budding computer 1974 01:15:57,649 --> 01:15:55,380 scientist who was assisting the science 1975 01:15:59,209 --> 01:15:57,659 advisor to the U.S Air Force and what of 1976 01:16:00,770 --> 01:15:59,219 course at that time was already and 1977 01:16:02,750 --> 01:16:00,780 today Still Remains the longest 1978 01:16:05,870 --> 01:16:02,760 systematic study of UAP conducted by 1979 01:16:08,510 --> 01:16:05,880 military agency now let's just be clear 1980 01:16:09,890 --> 01:16:08,520 Project Blue Book was not perfect valet 1981 01:16:14,390 --> 01:16:09,900 has said plenty about that over the 1982 01:16:16,310 --> 01:16:14,400 years but in his 80s still going still 1983 01:16:18,970 --> 01:16:16,320 going strong still actively involved in 1984 01:16:22,610 --> 01:16:18,980 investigations and still trying to 1985 01:16:26,330 --> 01:16:22,620 obtain alleged material associated with 1986 01:16:29,330 --> 01:16:26,340 UAP events and working with people like 1987 01:16:30,649 --> 01:16:29,340 Dr Gary Nolan to analyze these and to 1988 01:16:32,270 --> 01:16:30,659 try and come to an understanding of 1989 01:16:33,830 --> 01:16:32,280 whether or not we can discern things 1990 01:16:36,530 --> 01:16:33,840 about the material structure of UAP 1991 01:16:39,169 --> 01:16:36,540 through these analyzes you know this is 1992 01:16:40,430 --> 01:16:39,179 important work and Jacques has been 1993 01:16:42,530 --> 01:16:40,440 doing this for the better part of his 1994 01:16:45,470 --> 01:16:42,540 life actually I mean the majority of it 1995 01:16:46,790 --> 01:16:45,480 and uh I've always admired Jacques I 1996 01:16:49,370 --> 01:16:46,800 don't have to always agree with someone 1997 01:16:50,930 --> 01:16:49,380 like Jacque Valley or or Ryan Graves and 1998 01:16:53,930 --> 01:16:50,940 all their perspectives to have profound 1999 01:16:56,030 --> 01:16:53,940 appreciation for their their views 2000 01:16:57,470 --> 01:16:56,040 um I've had my questions honestly about 2001 01:17:00,290 --> 01:16:57,480 the Trinity case and I think a lot of 2002 01:17:02,030 --> 01:17:00,300 UAP researchers are but if Congress is 2003 01:17:03,709 --> 01:17:02,040 going to say that they're going to 2004 01:17:06,050 --> 01:17:03,719 mandate a historical review to go all 2005 01:17:08,090 --> 01:17:06,060 the way back to 1945 and to look and see 2006 01:17:09,830 --> 01:17:08,100 if there's information that applies to 2007 01:17:11,209 --> 01:17:09,840 that incident and see if we can resolve 2008 01:17:12,649 --> 01:17:11,219 once and for all if indeed there have 2009 01:17:14,689 --> 01:17:12,659 been records retrievals the likes of 2010 01:17:16,250 --> 01:17:14,699 which melon and others say that they've 2011 01:17:18,590 --> 01:17:16,260 heard from reliable sources actually 2012 01:17:20,330 --> 01:17:18,600 have occurred I would much rather that 2013 01:17:22,490 --> 01:17:20,340 actually happen than we sit around and 2014 01:17:24,050 --> 01:17:22,500 speculated about it you know for all 2015 01:17:25,970 --> 01:17:24,060 eternity is we've already spent decades 2016 01:17:28,910 --> 01:17:25,980 doing we've done enough speculation I 2017 01:17:31,669 --> 01:17:28,920 think and so uh valet being the 2018 01:17:34,310 --> 01:17:31,679 Trailblazer that he is in this article 2019 01:17:36,290 --> 01:17:34,320 uh it's an op-ed he's talking about how 2020 01:17:37,970 --> 01:17:36,300 you know he had gotten kind of an 2021 01:17:39,709 --> 01:17:37,980 advanced look at some of the stuff that 2022 01:17:42,649 --> 01:17:39,719 came out and that was revealed in 2017 2023 01:17:44,870 --> 01:17:42,659 and this uh in a classified setting of 2024 01:17:47,689 --> 01:17:44,880 course during his work uh with the 2025 01:17:49,790 --> 01:17:47,699 Bigelow Advanced uh era or Bigelow 2026 01:17:51,350 --> 01:17:49,800 Aerospace Advanced space studies who 2027 01:17:53,870 --> 01:17:51,360 have been the contractor for the allsap 2028 01:17:56,689 --> 01:17:53,880 program back in your uh what was it uh 2029 01:17:59,570 --> 01:17:56,699 between like 2008 and 2010 somewhere in 2030 01:18:02,030 --> 01:17:59,580 that neighborhood and um he's talking 2031 01:18:03,950 --> 01:18:02,040 about that aspect and and significantly 2032 01:18:05,330 --> 01:18:03,960 about having built the capella database 2033 01:18:06,709 --> 01:18:05,340 which of course he's discussed when he 2034 01:18:08,330 --> 01:18:06,719 came on your program and Chrissy 2035 01:18:10,610 --> 01:18:08,340 Newton's rebelliously curious program 2036 01:18:13,189 --> 01:18:10,620 and my own show he and I had a lengthy 2037 01:18:14,810 --> 01:18:13,199 discussion about capella this is not new 2038 01:18:16,430 --> 01:18:14,820 information but what he's trying to 2039 01:18:17,750 --> 01:18:16,440 emphasize and saying that he built this 2040 01:18:21,470 --> 01:18:17,760 database and this was a part of what 2041 01:18:23,450 --> 01:18:21,480 allsep did was that look you know part 2042 01:18:25,310 --> 01:18:23,460 of what we've done here is we've 2043 01:18:26,990 --> 01:18:25,320 assembled a database he says I think 2044 01:18:28,390 --> 01:18:27,000 less than 10 percent of all the accounts 2045 01:18:30,950 --> 01:18:28,400 that were in that database were military 2046 01:18:32,330 --> 01:18:30,960 and everybody put so much stock on the 2047 01:18:34,610 --> 01:18:32,340 military stuff but I mean you got to 2048 01:18:36,709 --> 01:18:34,620 figure that I mean 90 percent of the 2049 01:18:38,390 --> 01:18:36,719 best data that he felt that we had that 2050 01:18:40,610 --> 01:18:38,400 we could put into a database had nothing 2051 01:18:42,350 --> 01:18:40,620 to do with these military encounters 2052 01:18:43,850 --> 01:18:42,360 and he says I think we may be missing 2053 01:18:46,490 --> 01:18:43,860 some of the most important data right 2054 01:18:49,070 --> 01:18:46,500 now I thought it was very significant to 2055 01:18:51,530 --> 01:18:49,080 feature that op-ed from Dr valet one day 2056 01:18:53,209 --> 01:18:51,540 after the New York Times featured an 2057 01:18:55,610 --> 01:18:53,219 article that referenced valet's work as 2058 01:18:57,290 --> 01:18:55,620 well and so what we often pride 2059 01:19:00,229 --> 01:18:57,300 ourselves in doing again not a 2060 01:19:01,669 --> 01:19:00,239 explicitly UAP publication but the 2061 01:19:03,530 --> 01:19:01,679 debrief being one that does try to 2062 01:19:05,149 --> 01:19:03,540 responsibly look at the science and how 2063 01:19:06,410 --> 01:19:05,159 it can be applied toward that when the 2064 01:19:09,290 --> 01:19:06,420 New York Times reported on these 2065 01:19:10,790 --> 01:19:09,300 developments and valet's relationship to 2066 01:19:12,470 --> 01:19:10,800 that study and how that's even been 2067 01:19:13,790 --> 01:19:12,480 influential in the wording of the 2068 01:19:15,950 --> 01:19:13,800 language that appeared in the final 2069 01:19:18,770 --> 01:19:15,960 version of the ndaa for 2023 that was 2070 01:19:20,570 --> 01:19:18,780 passed into law you read the story about 2071 01:19:23,149 --> 01:19:20,580 valet but when you come to the debrief 2072 01:19:24,709 --> 01:19:23,159 now you get to hear his opinion about 2073 01:19:26,689 --> 01:19:24,719 these developments their significance 2074 01:19:29,090 --> 01:19:26,699 and helping to put those into the proper 2075 01:19:31,430 --> 01:19:29,100 historical context so again I remain a 2076 01:19:33,050 --> 01:19:31,440 supporter of Dr valet and his works I 2077 01:19:34,910 --> 01:19:33,060 couldn't be happier that there are 2078 01:19:38,209 --> 01:19:34,920 people like him who long before it was 2079 01:19:40,490 --> 01:19:38,219 popular to do so was brave enough to 2080 01:19:43,130 --> 01:19:40,500 lead the charge and to carry on in that 2081 01:19:45,649 --> 01:19:43,140 effort and has I mean at his age he's 2082 01:19:48,290 --> 01:19:45,659 still going strong doing healthy you 2083 01:19:50,330 --> 01:19:48,300 know doing incredible work and I I hope 2084 01:19:52,130 --> 01:19:50,340 that he'll continue we we really think 2085 01:19:54,530 --> 01:19:52,140 highly of Dr valet 2086 01:19:57,290 --> 01:19:54,540 absolutely someone had to step on those 2087 01:20:01,070 --> 01:19:57,300 landmines for you and I to run forward 2088 01:20:04,010 --> 01:20:01,080 man yeah that's true that is true 2089 01:20:06,350 --> 01:20:04,020 yep absolutely that's really exciting I 2090 01:20:08,930 --> 01:20:06,360 was really happy to see his name pop up 2091 01:20:11,630 --> 01:20:08,940 um well let's talk about the future of 2092 01:20:14,090 --> 01:20:11,640 the debrief in UAP we don't have him 2093 01:20:15,350 --> 01:20:14,100 with us but he's in the chat and he's 2094 01:20:17,510 --> 01:20:15,360 the one who brought this up so I'm 2095 01:20:19,010 --> 01:20:17,520 putting you on the spot Micah okay so 2096 01:20:21,590 --> 01:20:19,020 something you could talk about great if 2097 01:20:23,990 --> 01:20:21,600 not totally understand but Chicago 2098 01:20:25,610 --> 01:20:24,000 O'Hare a case near and dear to my heart 2099 01:20:27,169 --> 01:20:25,620 to many out there 2100 01:20:29,510 --> 01:20:27,179 um every time I go through that airport 2101 01:20:31,790 --> 01:20:29,520 I always go to that gate and just look 2102 01:20:33,830 --> 01:20:31,800 out the window just in case just in case 2103 01:20:37,250 --> 01:20:33,840 and I ask you know the person at 2104 01:20:39,709 --> 01:20:37,260 Cinnabon or or um the the people at the 2105 01:20:41,990 --> 01:20:39,719 counter or the desks there like hey what 2106 01:20:43,729 --> 01:20:42,000 did see anything back then 2107 01:20:46,130 --> 01:20:43,739 um but 2108 01:20:48,530 --> 01:20:46,140 is there some developments possibly 2109 01:20:51,470 --> 01:20:48,540 happening with the Chicago O'Hare case 2110 01:20:54,110 --> 01:20:51,480 is this something you can talk about 2111 01:20:56,870 --> 01:20:54,120 I can't talk about them that's fair 2112 01:20:58,729 --> 01:20:56,880 that's fair I'm just kidding actually uh 2113 01:21:01,209 --> 01:20:58,739 you know there's just an article it's 2114 01:21:03,110 --> 01:21:01,219 gonna be awkward yeah 2115 01:21:05,750 --> 01:21:03,120 we could do that we could go that way 2116 01:21:07,430 --> 01:21:05,760 but no uh you know Chris has got a a 2117 01:21:08,689 --> 01:21:07,440 contact who we've spoken with and this 2118 01:21:10,669 --> 01:21:08,699 has nothing to do with new revolutions 2119 01:21:12,590 --> 01:21:10,679 about the case I'll just be honest what 2120 01:21:14,209 --> 01:21:12,600 it is is it's a potential analysis of 2121 01:21:15,709 --> 01:21:14,219 what the flight dynamics of the object 2122 01:21:18,649 --> 01:21:15,719 that was observed during this famous 2123 01:21:20,810 --> 01:21:18,659 incident might actually have involved uh 2124 01:21:23,330 --> 01:21:20,820 this is this is an area of 2125 01:21:24,890 --> 01:21:23,340 and Gore of course I'm loath to try and 2126 01:21:26,810 --> 01:21:24,900 talk about a story before it's been 2127 01:21:28,430 --> 01:21:26,820 published I don't generally do that but 2128 01:21:30,350 --> 01:21:28,440 since Chris did bring it up I'll just 2129 01:21:32,450 --> 01:21:30,360 mention it uh not that there's anything 2130 01:21:33,590 --> 01:21:32,460 to hide but you know of course I want 2131 01:21:34,970 --> 01:21:33,600 people to go read it but then again if 2132 01:21:37,610 --> 01:21:34,980 we talk about it maybe more people will 2133 01:21:38,750 --> 01:21:37,620 so uh but yeah the idea here is that uh 2134 01:21:41,149 --> 01:21:38,760 we're looking at the potential 2135 01:21:43,910 --> 01:21:41,159 propulsion behind the object based on 2136 01:21:47,810 --> 01:21:43,920 certain Dynamics uh of the witness 2137 01:21:50,510 --> 01:21:47,820 statements about this object and so uh I 2138 01:21:51,830 --> 01:21:50,520 think that's a you know A continuing 2139 01:21:53,990 --> 01:21:51,840 theme and Reporting especially in 2140 01:21:56,510 --> 01:21:54,000 Chris's work there for us at the debrief 2141 01:21:57,530 --> 01:21:56,520 but really I mean I I am wholeheartedly 2142 01:22:00,530 --> 01:21:57,540 in support 2143 01:22:02,149 --> 01:22:00,540 of of more scientists doing this and 2144 01:22:05,030 --> 01:22:02,159 that is applying science toward trying 2145 01:22:07,970 --> 01:22:05,040 to understand uh the Technologies behind 2146 01:22:09,709 --> 01:22:07,980 UAP so if we can do that and this is 2147 01:22:11,810 --> 01:22:09,719 something that in addition to in Chris's 2148 01:22:13,490 --> 01:22:11,820 excellent reporting on warp drives and 2149 01:22:15,410 --> 01:22:13,500 all kinds of other propulsion mechanisms 2150 01:22:18,229 --> 01:22:15,420 occasionally MJ benais and I will also 2151 01:22:19,790 --> 01:22:18,239 jump in there uh and comment on that but 2152 01:22:22,250 --> 01:22:19,800 Chris has really led the charge in that 2153 01:22:24,110 --> 01:22:22,260 area of our reporting but this is also 2154 01:22:26,090 --> 01:22:24,120 an effort that's uh continued by the 2155 01:22:28,010 --> 01:22:26,100 scientific Coalition for UAP studies 2156 01:22:29,990 --> 01:22:28,020 which is a scientific organization I'm 2157 01:22:33,470 --> 01:22:30,000 actually a member of that organization 2158 01:22:37,070 --> 01:22:33,480 too and uh it is important for us I 2159 01:22:40,250 --> 01:22:37,080 think to look at the Dynamics the 2160 01:22:43,490 --> 01:22:40,260 capabilities patterns that emerge in the 2161 01:22:45,110 --> 01:22:43,500 abilities that UAP appear to display and 2162 01:22:47,209 --> 01:22:45,120 try to discern what technologies could 2163 01:22:48,530 --> 01:22:47,219 facilitate that because as we move 2164 01:22:50,030 --> 01:22:48,540 toward a better understanding of the 2165 01:22:53,149 --> 01:22:50,040 flight Dynamics and thereby the science 2166 01:22:55,130 --> 01:22:53,159 behind UAP not only is it possible that 2167 01:22:56,689 --> 01:22:55,140 we may unravel the UAP mystery but we 2168 01:22:59,330 --> 01:22:56,699 may also be able to benefit from 2169 01:23:01,370 --> 01:22:59,340 replicating that Tech technology with or 2170 01:23:02,570 --> 01:23:01,380 without the acquisition of Crash records 2171 01:23:04,490 --> 01:23:02,580 retrievals in other words if we can 2172 01:23:06,169 --> 01:23:04,500 figure out through an observation what 2173 01:23:07,790 --> 01:23:06,179 UAP are doing we might be able to 2174 01:23:09,610 --> 01:23:07,800 develop our own systems that can do that 2175 01:23:12,530 --> 01:23:09,620 and those could lead to an incredible 2176 01:23:15,229 --> 01:23:12,540 scientific advancements that one day May 2177 01:23:17,330 --> 01:23:15,239 reshape the way that you know not only 2178 01:23:18,830 --> 01:23:17,340 our military operates but more 2179 01:23:21,770 --> 01:23:18,840 fundamentally really I mean free energy 2180 01:23:23,689 --> 01:23:21,780 or near free energy sources cleaner 2181 01:23:26,270 --> 01:23:23,699 energy sources and resources that can be 2182 01:23:29,570 --> 01:23:26,280 used to help protect our environment and 2183 01:23:30,950 --> 01:23:29,580 our planet our communication systems all 2184 01:23:33,290 --> 01:23:30,960 kinds of different potential 2185 01:23:34,790 --> 01:23:33,300 technologies that that again may be very 2186 01:23:37,250 --> 01:23:34,800 beneficial to the future of humankind 2187 01:23:39,290 --> 01:23:37,260 and I've often wondered if we were 2188 01:23:41,149 --> 01:23:39,300 completely wrong about UFOs and these 2189 01:23:43,310 --> 01:23:41,159 all really were just swamp gas and 2190 01:23:45,530 --> 01:23:43,320 weather balloons and yet somehow the 2191 01:23:47,450 --> 01:23:45,540 idea in our mind that there was some 2192 01:23:49,910 --> 01:23:47,460 sort of advanced technology capable of 2193 01:23:51,950 --> 01:23:49,920 these imagined things if that were all 2194 01:23:54,410 --> 01:23:51,960 there were to UFOs wouldn't it be 2195 01:23:56,270 --> 01:23:54,420 fascinating because it's still driving 2196 01:23:58,729 --> 01:23:56,280 science it's still something that's 2197 01:24:01,070 --> 01:23:58,739 inspiring people to enter scientific 2198 01:24:02,209 --> 01:24:01,080 fields to become experts and ask you 2199 01:24:03,530 --> 01:24:02,219 know physics and astronomy and 2200 01:24:05,570 --> 01:24:03,540 astrophysics 2201 01:24:07,430 --> 01:24:05,580 I mean it's it's a fascinating subject 2202 01:24:09,290 --> 01:24:07,440 but that's one byproduct of the study of 2203 01:24:11,810 --> 01:24:09,300 it is that I hope that it will not only 2204 01:24:13,070 --> 01:24:11,820 Galvanize efforts to resolve what uapr 2205 01:24:14,390 --> 01:24:13,080 but it's also going to lead to new 2206 01:24:16,790 --> 01:24:14,400 innovations that are going to help us 2207 01:24:19,250 --> 01:24:16,800 right here on Earth 2208 01:24:22,189 --> 01:24:19,260 absolutely you know I always look at 2209 01:24:25,430 --> 01:24:22,199 this topic as what we aspire to be 2210 01:24:28,250 --> 01:24:25,440 everything these UFOs and possible 2211 01:24:30,110 --> 01:24:28,260 Advanced intelligences represent 2212 01:24:32,270 --> 01:24:30,120 they're always a step ahead and it's 2213 01:24:35,510 --> 01:24:32,280 something we can truly truly hopefully 2214 01:24:38,030 --> 01:24:35,520 benefit from someday here back on Earth 2215 01:24:41,090 --> 01:24:38,040 well let's talk about Innovation as we 2216 01:24:43,850 --> 01:24:41,100 close things out here Mr Hanks what do 2217 01:24:45,110 --> 01:24:43,860 you have coming at the debrief uh in the 2218 01:24:47,990 --> 01:24:45,120 coming 2219 01:24:50,570 --> 01:24:48,000 weeks days months year um what do you 2220 01:24:52,490 --> 01:24:50,580 got going on over there and uh let us 2221 01:24:54,530 --> 01:24:52,500 know where we can find everything if you 2222 01:24:55,790 --> 01:24:54,540 don't mind well of course I do want to 2223 01:24:57,410 --> 01:24:55,800 mention podcasts over there at the 2224 01:24:59,689 --> 01:24:57,420 debriefo we've got some very exciting 2225 01:25:01,910 --> 01:24:59,699 announcements we have in addition to our 2226 01:25:04,790 --> 01:25:01,920 existing Flagship program rebelliously 2227 01:25:06,410 --> 01:25:04,800 curious hosted by Chrissy Newton uh I'm 2228 01:25:07,610 --> 01:25:06,420 happy to say that uh Chris who's not 2229 01:25:08,990 --> 01:25:07,620 here right now but who's at home 2230 01:25:10,850 --> 01:25:09,000 listening so we got to call him out 2231 01:25:13,010 --> 01:25:10,860 Chris is going to be hosting a series of 2232 01:25:14,330 --> 01:25:13,020 Round Table discussions with the debrief 2233 01:25:16,490 --> 01:25:14,340 team and who knows maybe some other 2234 01:25:18,470 --> 01:25:16,500 people will join us and chime in from 2235 01:25:20,030 --> 01:25:18,480 time to time it's going to be a really 2236 01:25:21,229 --> 01:25:20,040 good time with Chris because Chris as 2237 01:25:23,930 --> 01:25:21,239 everybody knows you know with a 2238 01:25:25,729 --> 01:25:23,940 background in comedy and and writing and 2239 01:25:27,229 --> 01:25:25,739 and all different kinds of writing from 2240 01:25:29,090 --> 01:25:27,239 writing comedy and doing science 2241 01:25:31,430 --> 01:25:29,100 reporting for us but also being a 2242 01:25:34,490 --> 01:25:31,440 novelist Chris is very diverse in his in 2243 01:25:36,709 --> 01:25:34,500 his interests and his abilities and um 2244 01:25:38,630 --> 01:25:36,719 when he told me he wanted to start doing 2245 01:25:40,610 --> 01:25:38,640 a kind of Round Table format podcast 2246 01:25:43,370 --> 01:25:40,620 where we pick a topic and have the team 2247 01:25:45,050 --> 01:25:43,380 just kind of have fun with it I thought 2248 01:25:48,169 --> 01:25:45,060 this is great I got immediately excited 2249 01:25:50,390 --> 01:25:48,179 United was extremely happy to hear this 2250 01:25:52,910 --> 01:25:50,400 especially considering that our very own 2251 01:25:56,570 --> 01:25:52,920 MJ benais is also going to be launching 2252 01:25:58,550 --> 01:25:56,580 a new news podcast for the debrief so in 2253 01:26:00,649 --> 01:25:58,560 addition to our editorial uh production 2254 01:26:02,090 --> 01:26:00,659 and of course the video side of things 2255 01:26:04,370 --> 01:26:02,100 that Christian Newton has really led the 2256 01:26:05,689 --> 01:26:04,380 charge with we've got our team members 2257 01:26:07,250 --> 01:26:05,699 also stepping up to the plate Chris's 2258 01:26:09,709 --> 01:26:07,260 thing I think is going to be video but I 2259 01:26:12,590 --> 01:26:09,719 think the audio only podcast MJ will be 2260 01:26:14,810 --> 01:26:12,600 producing is going to be another content 2261 01:26:16,430 --> 01:26:14,820 Edition that you can look forward to in 2262 01:26:18,350 --> 01:26:16,440 the various ways that we offer our 2263 01:26:19,610 --> 01:26:18,360 reporting through the debrief and of 2264 01:26:21,410 --> 01:26:19,620 course you know for my own part I've 2265 01:26:23,030 --> 01:26:21,420 been doing now for more than a decade my 2266 01:26:26,149 --> 01:26:23,040 own podcast the name of which is the 2267 01:26:27,950 --> 01:26:26,159 Micah Hanks program uh it had another 2268 01:26:29,390 --> 01:26:27,960 name before that many years ago if 2269 01:26:30,950 --> 01:26:29,400 people have been following it for a long 2270 01:26:33,050 --> 01:26:30,960 time but I mean it's been going on for 2271 01:26:36,110 --> 01:26:33,060 half a decade now under the the current 2272 01:26:38,570 --> 01:26:36,120 name and uh I continue to report 2273 01:26:40,430 --> 01:26:38,580 basically on all the major developments 2274 01:26:42,890 --> 01:26:40,440 from the debrief there on the Micah 2275 01:26:44,209 --> 01:26:42,900 Hanks program each and every week and 2276 01:26:46,430 --> 01:26:44,219 you can learn all about that at my 2277 01:26:50,270 --> 01:26:46,440 website Micah dot com just go to the 2278 01:26:52,010 --> 01:26:50,280 podcast link there on my URL and you can 2279 01:26:54,410 --> 01:26:52,020 find my show as well so there are a lot 2280 01:26:58,070 --> 01:26:54,420 of podcasts coming out from Team debrief 2281 01:27:00,229 --> 01:26:58,080 but we've also got some uh interesting 2282 01:27:03,110 --> 01:27:00,239 reporting coming up in the in the in the 2283 01:27:04,669 --> 01:27:03,120 months ahead uh when I'm laying awake in 2284 01:27:06,229 --> 01:27:04,679 the still hours of the morning unable to 2285 01:27:07,729 --> 01:27:06,239 sleep I'm often you know kind of 2286 01:27:10,010 --> 01:27:07,739 orchestrating in my mind the things I 2287 01:27:11,450 --> 01:27:10,020 want to publish and there's a piece I 2288 01:27:13,750 --> 01:27:11,460 won't say too much about it just yet 2289 01:27:17,090 --> 01:27:13,760 I'll just say that this has to do with 2290 01:27:19,910 --> 01:27:17,100 uh clandestine Aerospace developments 2291 01:27:22,510 --> 01:27:19,920 that could perhaps explain some UAP 2292 01:27:25,790 --> 01:27:22,520 and this is a piece that I've been 2293 01:27:29,450 --> 01:27:25,800 progressively working on since even 2294 01:27:30,950 --> 01:27:29,460 before we launched the debrief and this 2295 01:27:32,450 --> 01:27:30,960 I hope is going to come to fruition in 2296 01:27:33,709 --> 01:27:32,460 early 2023 but they're going to be some 2297 01:27:34,370 --> 01:27:33,719 big 2298 01:27:36,830 --> 01:27:34,380 um 2299 01:27:39,950 --> 01:27:36,840 uh developments I think with that in the 2300 01:27:43,070 --> 01:27:39,960 weeks ahead uh because there's a whole 2301 01:27:45,649 --> 01:27:43,080 chapter to the UAP mystery that is a 2302 01:27:47,990 --> 01:27:45,659 little closer to home and that makes it 2303 01:27:49,790 --> 01:27:48,000 no less strange and so I hope to kind of 2304 01:27:51,590 --> 01:27:49,800 dive into some of the reporting on that 2305 01:27:54,050 --> 01:27:51,600 in the days ahead and of course we've 2306 01:27:56,810 --> 01:27:54,060 always got I think some of the very best 2307 01:27:59,510 --> 01:27:56,820 in space Aerospace defense reporting 2308 01:28:01,490 --> 01:27:59,520 from the entire team Tim McMillan Chris 2309 01:28:02,689 --> 01:28:01,500 plain who was
