absurd either experiencer uh 45 00:02:24,350 --> 00:02:22,680 drawings and cartoons too or these 46 00:02:28,490 --> 00:02:24,360 unknown artists that I'd never heard of 47 00:02:30,949 --> 00:02:28,500 and there's just so much like amazing uh 48 00:02:33,350 --> 00:02:30,959 art revolving around these cases already 49 00:02:35,930 --> 00:02:33,360 that I kind of really wanted to throw my 50 00:02:38,150 --> 00:02:35,940 hat in the ring and revitalizing some of 51 00:02:39,770 --> 00:02:38,160 these stories and and I I don't even 52 00:02:41,570 --> 00:02:39,780 remember who asked to but me and Rob 53 00:02:43,490 --> 00:02:41,580 just kind of decided to start picking 54 00:02:45,350 --> 00:02:43,500 out some cases which I left completely 55 00:02:47,809 --> 00:02:45,360 up to Rob so I'll let him speak to how 56 00:02:50,089 --> 00:02:47,819 the cases are selected and then uh yeah 57 00:02:52,309 --> 00:02:50,099 I just kind of he sends me a script and 58 00:02:54,770 --> 00:02:52,319 I get to do my thing over the first part 59 00:02:58,190 --> 00:02:54,780 of the month and it's been beautiful 60 00:03:00,050 --> 00:02:58,200 awesome yeah Rob how did uh how did you 61 00:03:01,729 --> 00:03:00,060 decide which cases you'd cover in this 62 00:03:03,410 --> 00:03:01,739 thing which which of these you'd bring 63 00:03:06,830 --> 00:03:03,420 to life 64 00:03:09,949 --> 00:03:06,840 so when I a lot of the time when I'm 65 00:03:12,229 --> 00:03:09,959 looking at you know cases for the comic 66 00:03:13,970 --> 00:03:12,239 I think of like 67 00:03:16,550 --> 00:03:13,980 um you know the cases that I've covered 68 00:03:20,149 --> 00:03:16,560 and like what would really make stunning 69 00:03:23,330 --> 00:03:20,159 visuals for a lot of these things and 70 00:03:25,550 --> 00:03:23,340 in in some cases there are no sketches 71 00:03:28,309 --> 00:03:25,560 at all associated with them uh like in 72 00:03:29,869 --> 00:03:28,319 our second issue on the uh Dan duggleby 73 00:03:32,390 --> 00:03:29,879 encounter but like 74 00:03:34,610 --> 00:03:32,400 um a lot of it just came from covering 75 00:03:37,009 --> 00:03:34,620 cases on outer strange skies and and 76 00:03:39,949 --> 00:03:37,019 just thinking wow this would be amazing 77 00:03:42,470 --> 00:03:39,959 if it had this kind of Second Life as a 78 00:03:45,250 --> 00:03:42,480 comic uh and peop more people were 79 00:03:48,949 --> 00:03:45,260 exposed to these you know wild looking 80 00:03:50,990 --> 00:03:48,959 cases that are really the high 81 00:03:53,449 --> 00:03:51,000 strangestness the high strange or the 82 00:03:55,190 --> 00:03:53,459 high strangeness like they are the 83 00:03:57,050 --> 00:03:55,200 weirdest cases that I can find and 84 00:03:59,869 --> 00:03:57,060 pretty much every single one of them 85 00:04:02,330 --> 00:03:59,879 I've covered on the podcast uh there's 86 00:04:04,610 --> 00:04:02,340 one that I covered in a bonus episode 87 00:04:07,910 --> 00:04:04,620 um but every single one I've covered So 88 00:04:10,690 --> 00:04:07,920 Far So within the course of doing a lot 89 00:04:13,610 --> 00:04:10,700 of the research I'll think of something 90 00:04:15,770 --> 00:04:13,620 type out a script it'd usually take me 91 00:04:18,229 --> 00:04:15,780 you know like an hour or two and then 92 00:04:22,189 --> 00:04:18,239 uh send it on over to Todd in this 93 00:04:24,409 --> 00:04:22,199 Google uh doc folder that we share and 94 00:04:28,749 --> 00:04:24,419 he takes it from there and and turns it 95 00:04:32,629 --> 00:04:28,759 into the magic that uh you all see now 96 00:04:34,909 --> 00:04:32,639 spins it into gold I don't know I know 97 00:04:37,370 --> 00:04:34,919 um well Todd I gotta ask you man um in 98 00:04:38,090 --> 00:04:37,380 terms of Art and whatnot for these 99 00:04:40,010 --> 00:04:38,100 things 100 00:04:42,530 --> 00:04:40,020 um what are some of your favorite Comics 101 00:04:45,469 --> 00:04:42,540 that kind of inspired the style for this 102 00:04:49,070 --> 00:04:45,479 I love the IDE like the aesthetic of it 103 00:04:51,530 --> 00:04:49,080 it's got like that really 60 70s contact 104 00:04:54,170 --> 00:04:51,540 that you feel to it but um yeah are 105 00:04:55,490 --> 00:04:54,180 there any like big Inspirations for how 106 00:04:58,850 --> 00:04:55,500 you decided to approach this 107 00:05:00,770 --> 00:04:58,860 artistically totally so I I really 108 00:05:02,330 --> 00:05:00,780 wanted to do it in a little bit of a 109 00:05:04,370 --> 00:05:02,340 different style than I normally work in 110 00:05:07,070 --> 00:05:04,380 with like my daily drawings or my daily 111 00:05:09,409 --> 00:05:07,080 cartoons I wanted to keep the kind of 112 00:05:11,450 --> 00:05:09,419 Whimsy and fun that I have in the 113 00:05:14,210 --> 00:05:11,460 drawings that I aspire to have I should 114 00:05:17,629 --> 00:05:14,220 say and I wanted to combine it with that 115 00:05:20,150 --> 00:05:17,639 more traditional like 50 60s comic style 116 00:05:22,850 --> 00:05:20,160 that a lot of the artwork that inspired 117 00:05:25,370 --> 00:05:22,860 me uh that Rob shared with me from the 118 00:05:27,409 --> 00:05:25,380 different UFO journals and these uh 119 00:05:30,710 --> 00:05:27,419 different scenes from the 70s and stuff 120 00:05:33,230 --> 00:05:30,720 but as far as specific Comics uh the EC 121 00:05:36,230 --> 00:05:33,240 stuff from the 50s and 60s has always 122 00:05:38,990 --> 00:05:36,240 been my favorite from Wally Wood to Jack 123 00:05:41,810 --> 00:05:39,000 Davis to these guys that have some of 124 00:05:44,990 --> 00:05:41,820 the most expressive lines and Visually 125 00:05:47,870 --> 00:05:45,000 I'm I'm not able to recreate those 126 00:05:50,629 --> 00:05:47,880 Styles as much as I'd like to but uh I I 127 00:05:52,909 --> 00:05:50,639 like to try and take what they do as far 128 00:05:54,590 --> 00:05:52,919 as movement and kind of bringing all 129 00:05:57,409 --> 00:05:54,600 these each thing to life in a different 130 00:06:00,110 --> 00:05:57,419 way and really approach these the things 131 00:06:02,090 --> 00:06:00,120 with a bit of fun to it and having just 132 00:06:05,629 --> 00:06:02,100 having fun with the whole thing so yeah 133 00:06:08,930 --> 00:06:05,639 I think that 50 60s really uh beginning 134 00:06:11,689 --> 00:06:08,940 of the Sci-Fi Comics era is where I've 135 00:06:14,390 --> 00:06:11,699 really kind of dug into for inspirations 136 00:06:17,390 --> 00:06:14,400 nice yeah and you could definitely feel 137 00:06:18,950 --> 00:06:17,400 it in this first uh this first one that 138 00:06:21,170 --> 00:06:18,960 we're looking at and guys if you're just 139 00:06:22,850 --> 00:06:21,180 listening to this episode I would highly 140 00:06:25,550 --> 00:06:22,860 suggest watching the YouTube version 141 00:06:27,590 --> 00:06:25,560 because we have all the visuals from 142 00:06:29,570 --> 00:06:27,600 welcome UFO people up here tonight we're 143 00:06:31,730 --> 00:06:29,580 going to be referencing it so this is 144 00:06:33,710 --> 00:06:31,740 definitely a YouTube version 145 00:06:36,230 --> 00:06:33,720 um for those who usually listen so head 146 00:06:37,249 --> 00:06:36,240 on over to YouTube and watch this right 147 00:06:41,210 --> 00:06:37,259 now 148 00:06:42,230 --> 00:06:41,220 um well I guess my next question is 149 00:06:46,309 --> 00:06:42,240 um 150 00:06:49,430 --> 00:06:46,319 how Rob how do you decide you know these 151 00:06:52,790 --> 00:06:49,440 cases are so complex sometimes there's 152 00:06:54,650 --> 00:06:52,800 so much to them and like I know for you 153 00:06:56,570 --> 00:06:54,660 and me when we try to cover these things 154 00:06:58,850 --> 00:06:56,580 it could take hours to try to get 155 00:07:01,550 --> 00:06:58,860 through an entire case but here you guys 156 00:07:03,590 --> 00:07:01,560 are doing one page for each of these 157 00:07:05,809 --> 00:07:03,600 um easily digestible for someone who 158 00:07:08,029 --> 00:07:05,819 just wants like kind of the cliff notes 159 00:07:11,330 --> 00:07:08,039 version I guess is kind of how I looked 160 00:07:14,150 --> 00:07:11,340 at it but um how do you decide what you 161 00:07:16,550 --> 00:07:14,160 want to actually be included in each of 162 00:07:18,650 --> 00:07:16,560 these without you know unfortunately 163 00:07:20,150 --> 00:07:18,660 sacrificing a lot of stuff I would 164 00:07:23,450 --> 00:07:20,160 imagine 165 00:07:25,430 --> 00:07:23,460 it's hard and I see it as a challenge 166 00:07:27,170 --> 00:07:25,440 every single time stepping up and saying 167 00:07:29,629 --> 00:07:27,180 we've got five panels to make this 168 00:07:32,270 --> 00:07:29,639 happen how can we tell the story in five 169 00:07:35,749 --> 00:07:32,280 panels that makes it compelling and 170 00:07:37,550 --> 00:07:35,759 tells a complete story and uh you know 171 00:07:41,629 --> 00:07:37,560 there are a lot of cases that I think of 172 00:07:43,850 --> 00:07:41,639 in my head that uh I'd want to do that 173 00:07:46,909 --> 00:07:43,860 are are tough uh like the Herbert 174 00:07:50,270 --> 00:07:46,919 shurmer account I it's tough to do that 175 00:07:52,010 --> 00:07:50,280 because there's so much to it uh and 176 00:07:54,589 --> 00:07:52,020 it's such a wonderful story that when 177 00:07:57,230 --> 00:07:54,599 you cut things out it just it loses some 178 00:07:59,629 --> 00:07:57,240 of its muster but like with the with the 179 00:08:01,490 --> 00:07:59,639 space pancakes and Joe Simonton it's a 180 00:08:04,670 --> 00:08:01,500 short compact story that's easy enough 181 00:08:07,150 --> 00:08:04,680 to tell in which you know Joe Simonton 182 00:08:10,610 --> 00:08:07,160 he's about to sit down to breakfast 183 00:08:14,029 --> 00:08:10,620 here's a sound outside sees a UFO goes 184 00:08:16,610 --> 00:08:14,039 outside and there's a opening 185 00:08:19,850 --> 00:08:16,620 and he sees a guy and he's got a jug and 186 00:08:21,950 --> 00:08:19,860 he's looking for water and inside you 187 00:08:23,450 --> 00:08:21,960 know Joe sees that uh there's just 188 00:08:25,490 --> 00:08:23,460 another guy in there and he's grilling 189 00:08:28,790 --> 00:08:25,500 something on on some like smokeless 190 00:08:30,469 --> 00:08:28,800 Grill so you know he uh he goes he he 191 00:08:32,690 --> 00:08:30,479 fetches the water and he comes back and 192 00:08:35,329 --> 00:08:32,700 he's basically asks hey can I have some 193 00:08:37,670 --> 00:08:35,339 you know he like gestures to him so uh 194 00:08:40,430 --> 00:08:37,680 you know like we really were able to 195 00:08:45,110 --> 00:08:40,440 distill it down into the basic elements 196 00:08:47,449 --> 00:08:45,120 but a lot of the time uh if I can find a 197 00:08:51,710 --> 00:08:47,459 story that 198 00:08:54,470 --> 00:08:51,720 um if you can like take a portion of it 199 00:08:56,389 --> 00:08:54,480 out of it uh and and really adapt it 200 00:08:59,750 --> 00:08:56,399 into something that gets across the 201 00:09:03,230 --> 00:08:59,760 point uh that's what I try to do and uh 202 00:09:06,590 --> 00:09:03,240 so far we we've been able to do that um 203 00:09:09,410 --> 00:09:06,600 the it's just I I will run through my 204 00:09:11,509 --> 00:09:09,420 head and say well you know what what's 205 00:09:13,790 --> 00:09:11,519 what have I covered that will make a 206 00:09:15,290 --> 00:09:13,800 good comic what what can we do that's 207 00:09:17,930 --> 00:09:15,300 brief and every every single one of them 208 00:09:21,050 --> 00:09:17,940 I think we've uh we've done a good job 209 00:09:24,290 --> 00:09:21,060 of telling a complete enough story to 210 00:09:25,610 --> 00:09:24,300 where uh anybody who wants to check 211 00:09:27,590 --> 00:09:25,620 these out they're they're not going to 212 00:09:29,630 --> 00:09:27,600 be lost they're and you know they may 213 00:09:32,329 --> 00:09:29,640 even want to go and track down some of 214 00:09:35,750 --> 00:09:32,339 the sources that um uh you know these 215 00:09:38,389 --> 00:09:35,760 were pulled from and like one of the 216 00:09:41,930 --> 00:09:38,399 big things that attracts me to the 217 00:09:44,870 --> 00:09:41,940 stories that I put in there are the 218 00:09:47,810 --> 00:09:44,880 sketches that I find and a lot of them 219 00:09:52,610 --> 00:09:47,820 are just like absolutely fantastic uh 220 00:09:55,430 --> 00:09:52,620 and like uh just thinking like how would 221 00:09:56,990 --> 00:09:55,440 Todd do this and I'll take that image 222 00:09:58,970 --> 00:09:57,000 I'll put it in the dock and I just can't 223 00:10:01,310 --> 00:09:58,980 wait to see how Todd's going to do it 224 00:10:04,009 --> 00:10:01,320 and like every single comic has been 225 00:10:06,470 --> 00:10:04,019 that way so far and every single one has 226 00:10:09,949 --> 00:10:06,480 has just been fantastic 227 00:10:11,930 --> 00:10:09,959 nice nice yeah I I love you could tell 228 00:10:14,329 --> 00:10:11,940 you guys work well together because it 229 00:10:16,490 --> 00:10:14,339 just it comes together so easily there's 230 00:10:18,889 --> 00:10:16,500 some Comics that you see where you can 231 00:10:21,230 --> 00:10:18,899 just tell there's some sort of there's 232 00:10:23,030 --> 00:10:21,240 something there's a wall between the 233 00:10:25,190 --> 00:10:23,040 writer and the artist and they just 234 00:10:26,870 --> 00:10:25,200 don't seem to mesh but this just comes 235 00:10:29,389 --> 00:10:26,880 together so well and I know we showed 236 00:10:31,730 --> 00:10:29,399 the um the Simonton one let me get this 237 00:10:34,670 --> 00:10:31,740 back in on the screen here this is one 238 00:10:37,430 --> 00:10:34,680 of my all-time favorite cases 239 00:10:39,470 --> 00:10:37,440 um you covered most of it Rob uh so 240 00:10:41,810 --> 00:10:39,480 we'll leave we'll leave that up for the 241 00:10:43,730 --> 00:10:41,820 listeners to continue researching the uh 242 00:10:46,250 --> 00:10:43,740 assignments in case because it's one of 243 00:10:48,769 --> 00:10:46,260 my personal favorites but um I do want 244 00:10:50,750 --> 00:10:48,779 to kind of just run through all of these 245 00:10:54,050 --> 00:10:50,760 with you guys if that's cool 246 00:10:57,710 --> 00:10:54,060 um and then yeah yeah so let's move to 247 00:11:00,470 --> 00:10:57,720 this one right here this one happened in 248 00:11:03,230 --> 00:11:00,480 the um the Canary Islands in Spain I 249 00:11:05,690 --> 00:11:03,240 believe is this the 1976 one 250 00:11:08,150 --> 00:11:05,700 um would you guys mind uh telling us a 251 00:11:10,329 --> 00:11:08,160 little about this game and uh maybe why 252 00:11:15,050 --> 00:11:10,339 you decided to cover this one 253 00:11:16,790 --> 00:11:15,060 so for me the biggest visual that you 254 00:11:20,110 --> 00:11:16,800 see on there is that bubble with the 255 00:11:22,970 --> 00:11:20,120 aliens inside of it and that is 256 00:11:24,889 --> 00:11:22,980 verbatim a piece of art that exists on 257 00:11:28,310 --> 00:11:24,899 the internet that is associated with 258 00:11:30,410 --> 00:11:28,320 this case so I covered this case uh 259 00:11:32,569 --> 00:11:30,420 probably back in September August 260 00:11:34,730 --> 00:11:32,579 somewhere around there and it's such a 261 00:11:37,970 --> 00:11:34,740 fascinating case because it involves the 262 00:11:41,930 --> 00:11:37,980 military uh the military sees a light 263 00:11:43,670 --> 00:11:41,940 over the Canary Islands it's uh over by 264 00:11:45,470 --> 00:11:43,680 a different uh there's like a battleship 265 00:11:48,290 --> 00:11:45,480 over by a different Island and they just 266 00:11:50,569 --> 00:11:48,300 watch this thing and they believe at 267 00:11:52,550 --> 00:11:50,579 first that it is like a submarine 268 00:11:54,350 --> 00:11:52,560 shooting you know missiles into the air 269 00:11:55,790 --> 00:11:54,360 or something like that and then you find 270 00:11:59,030 --> 00:11:55,800 out there's another portion of this 271 00:12:01,910 --> 00:11:59,040 story and the story involves a professor 272 00:12:04,069 --> 00:12:01,920 and another passenger in a taxi cab and 273 00:12:07,009 --> 00:12:04,079 they get close to this thing uh like 274 00:12:11,210 --> 00:12:07,019 they get a really good view probably 275 00:12:13,670 --> 00:12:11,220 less than 100 feet away from it and they 276 00:12:16,009 --> 00:12:13,680 see this giant bubble and they see these 277 00:12:16,970 --> 00:12:16,019 giant humanoids inside everything is 278 00:12:20,509 --> 00:12:16,980 large 279 00:12:22,370 --> 00:12:20,519 inside that craft and uh they eventually 280 00:12:24,290 --> 00:12:22,380 everybody including the taxi cab driver 281 00:12:26,509 --> 00:12:24,300 they all flee to a neighbor's house and 282 00:12:29,150 --> 00:12:26,519 they just watch this thing depart and 283 00:12:33,290 --> 00:12:29,160 like the story is so 284 00:12:35,750 --> 00:12:33,300 like it's terrifying but it is also like 285 00:12:38,389 --> 00:12:35,760 captivating and like the visual 286 00:12:41,210 --> 00:12:38,399 Aesthetics like it just uh because the 287 00:12:44,030 --> 00:12:41,220 visual Aesthetics are so like arresting 288 00:12:46,490 --> 00:12:44,040 like it just made for the perfect comic 289 00:12:49,550 --> 00:12:46,500 this is this is one of my favorites 290 00:12:52,190 --> 00:12:49,560 nice Todd what about where where does 291 00:12:53,889 --> 00:12:52,200 this one lay in your your Pantheon so 292 00:12:56,990 --> 00:12:53,899 far yeah 293 00:12:58,730 --> 00:12:57,000 this is one that I didn't really know 294 00:13:00,949 --> 00:12:58,740 much about at all until Rob sent me the 295 00:13:02,810 --> 00:13:00,959 script and what I do when Rob sends me 296 00:13:04,670 --> 00:13:02,820 those scripts is I scroll straight down 297 00:13:06,410 --> 00:13:04,680 to the last page where he usually 298 00:13:08,329 --> 00:13:06,420 includes the witness sketches or 299 00:13:10,910 --> 00:13:08,339 anything that is like a little reference 300 00:13:13,069 --> 00:13:10,920 for me and when I see that that's 301 00:13:16,790 --> 00:13:13,079 usually what I start with when I see the 302 00:13:17,810 --> 00:13:16,800 reference point and they're just so I 303 00:13:20,569 --> 00:13:17,820 love 304 00:13:22,970 --> 00:13:20,579 um aesthetic patterns and there are so 305 00:13:25,250 --> 00:13:22,980 many aesthetic patterns that I can kind 306 00:13:27,949 --> 00:13:25,260 of pinpoint already from things starting 307 00:13:29,569 --> 00:13:27,959 out as colorful lights in the sky and 308 00:13:31,970 --> 00:13:29,579 then transforming to more of these 309 00:13:33,710 --> 00:13:31,980 physical crafts and like bubbles seem to 310 00:13:35,150 --> 00:13:33,720 be one of these aesthetic patterns that 311 00:13:37,550 --> 00:13:35,160 I'm really digging and this was a great 312 00:13:40,370 --> 00:13:37,560 way to like really personify that and 313 00:13:43,850 --> 00:13:40,380 when Rob sends me these scripts I love 314 00:13:45,110 --> 00:13:43,860 how he's broken down these encounters so 315 00:13:46,850 --> 00:13:45,120 that when you read the panel 316 00:13:49,250 --> 00:13:46,860 descriptions it's just you can picture 317 00:13:52,009 --> 00:13:49,260 it so clearly in your mind and that's 318 00:13:54,110 --> 00:13:52,019 why I spend a little bit more time kind 319 00:13:56,030 --> 00:13:54,120 of doing the page layout than even the 320 00:13:58,190 --> 00:13:56,040 rendering of the actual artwork so I 321 00:14:00,170 --> 00:13:58,200 really wanted to kind of flow in that 322 00:14:03,050 --> 00:14:00,180 way that he's broken broken down the 323 00:14:04,730 --> 00:14:03,060 page but still have a little bit more uh 324 00:14:07,009 --> 00:14:04,740 interest to it all because it is a 325 00:14:08,569 --> 00:14:07,019 really short contained story so I wanted 326 00:14:10,370 --> 00:14:08,579 to be visually interesting but I wanted 327 00:14:12,350 --> 00:14:10,380 to read really well so that's kind of 328 00:14:14,210 --> 00:14:12,360 the technical side that I think of and 329 00:14:16,069 --> 00:14:14,220 this one was really hard for that like 330 00:14:18,410 --> 00:14:16,079 this one was one like I don't draw 331 00:14:20,509 --> 00:14:18,420 battleships or like military stuff like 332 00:14:23,030 --> 00:14:20,519 I don't that's not like my 333 00:14:25,850 --> 00:14:23,040 my daily so like getting those things 334 00:14:27,650 --> 00:14:25,860 down was really fun and it also made 335 00:14:29,690 --> 00:14:27,660 this story stick in my brain more 336 00:14:31,430 --> 00:14:29,700 because of how much work that stuff put 337 00:14:33,170 --> 00:14:31,440 into it but like getting to the part 338 00:14:35,269 --> 00:14:33,180 where I get to do the bubble craft and 339 00:14:37,490 --> 00:14:35,279 the entities is almost like the icing on 340 00:14:38,990 --> 00:14:37,500 the cake like that's that I saved that I 341 00:14:40,430 --> 00:14:39,000 start with the sketch of that but I save 342 00:14:42,350 --> 00:14:40,440 the finished part for the end because 343 00:14:45,530 --> 00:14:42,360 it's my favorite it's just so much fun 344 00:14:48,050 --> 00:14:45,540 to get really weird with it and I try to 345 00:14:50,990 --> 00:14:48,060 make sure all of these are um not 346 00:14:53,509 --> 00:14:51,000 portrayed in like a scary way or a way 347 00:14:55,670 --> 00:14:53,519 that has a lot of fear associated with 348 00:14:57,710 --> 00:14:55,680 them I've been very conscious of trying 349 00:14:59,810 --> 00:14:57,720 to present some of these different cases 350 00:15:01,310 --> 00:14:59,820 and paranormal ideas and things in a 351 00:15:04,430 --> 00:15:01,320 more positive light because I think 352 00:15:06,050 --> 00:15:04,440 there's a benefit in the long term of 353 00:15:07,550 --> 00:15:06,060 doing that and I like kind of adding 354 00:15:10,430 --> 00:15:07,560 that into the mythology of these things 355 00:15:12,889 --> 00:15:10,440 that we're covering absolutely like you 356 00:15:16,129 --> 00:15:12,899 know I I can't imagine doing a welcome 357 00:15:18,350 --> 00:15:16,139 UFO people of like Whitley Streeper you 358 00:15:21,350 --> 00:15:18,360 know what I mean once you get into like 359 00:15:24,590 --> 00:15:21,360 the 80s and 90s you're getting into that 360 00:15:26,810 --> 00:15:24,600 really scary alien abduction 361 00:15:29,329 --> 00:15:26,820 um time period but I think again since 362 00:15:33,350 --> 00:15:29,339 you guys are really really kind of right 363 00:15:36,470 --> 00:15:33,360 now at least in the contact e era and 364 00:15:39,530 --> 00:15:36,480 the the humanoid era um it does lend 365 00:15:49,629 --> 00:15:39,540 itself well I think to that idea of it 366 00:15:53,449 --> 00:15:51,829 I was gonna say Whitley's a great person 367 00:15:55,730 --> 00:15:53,459 to bring up in that regard because one 368 00:15:58,009 --> 00:15:55,740 of my favorite things that he's said is 369 00:16:00,290 --> 00:15:58,019 that if he had better science fiction 370 00:16:02,150 --> 00:16:00,300 growing up a more positive version of 371 00:16:04,610 --> 00:16:02,160 Science Fiction he doesn't think his 372 00:16:06,829 --> 00:16:04,620 experiences would have been as scary and 373 00:16:08,689 --> 00:16:06,839 as frightening as they are and I think 374 00:16:10,430 --> 00:16:08,699 there's some real truth to that uh Dr 375 00:16:11,629 --> 00:16:10,440 Jeffrey cites that all the time 376 00:16:13,310 --> 00:16:11,639 I believe it was in his book 377 00:16:15,590 --> 00:16:13,320 Supernatural that he did with Whitley 378 00:16:17,569 --> 00:16:15,600 and I love that because I think about 379 00:16:20,810 --> 00:16:17,579 that with my kids I'm trying to present 380 00:16:22,970 --> 00:16:20,820 them these ideas and these uh paranormal 381 00:16:25,129 --> 00:16:22,980 UFOs all these things that they are 382 00:16:26,629 --> 00:16:25,139 encountering in pop culture I'm trying 383 00:16:28,790 --> 00:16:26,639 to make sure that they're encountering 384 00:16:30,650 --> 00:16:28,800 the Curious side of it the side that 385 00:16:32,930 --> 00:16:30,660 makes you go oh man we live in a really 386 00:16:34,850 --> 00:16:32,940 like magical wonderful world that can 387 00:16:36,350 --> 00:16:34,860 enrich your life not the side of it that 388 00:16:38,689 --> 00:16:36,360 I was kind of brought up on where it's 389 00:16:40,189 --> 00:16:38,699 all scary or it's like Ghostbusters 390 00:16:42,949 --> 00:16:40,199 where you have to hunt the other and 391 00:16:44,990 --> 00:16:42,959 it's all antagonistic I'm trying to find 392 00:16:46,970 --> 00:16:45,000 a middle ground here where you know fear 393 00:16:49,910 --> 00:16:46,980 is a part of this and just like the 394 00:16:52,550 --> 00:16:49,920 definition of all it contains fear like 395 00:16:54,470 --> 00:16:52,560 all is inspiration and wonder with a 396 00:16:56,389 --> 00:16:54,480 part of fear so I think fear is a fine 397 00:16:59,110 --> 00:16:56,399 element of all of this but taking away 398 00:17:02,150 --> 00:16:59,120 that antagonistic kind of uh you know 399 00:17:03,170 --> 00:17:02,160 hunting and being initially afraid of 400 00:17:05,809 --> 00:17:03,180 something that's different and 401 00:17:08,329 --> 00:17:05,819 approaching it with a curiosity and kind 402 00:17:09,189 --> 00:17:08,339 of a wow stuff's really magical and 403 00:17:12,110 --> 00:17:09,199 weird 404 00:17:13,789 --> 00:17:12,120 yeah I mean I mean so far we've got 405 00:17:16,429 --> 00:17:13,799 aliens with pancakes and we've got 406 00:17:19,010 --> 00:17:16,439 bubble craft Rob only you could find a 407 00:17:21,829 --> 00:17:19,020 UFO that was just a straight up bubble I 408 00:17:24,829 --> 00:17:21,839 I knew I know you I knew you could do it 409 00:17:27,890 --> 00:17:24,839 um all right well let's move from one 410 00:17:30,530 --> 00:17:27,900 Island to another uh Keith's Island 411 00:17:32,810 --> 00:17:30,540 British Columbia this is another really 412 00:17:34,130 --> 00:17:32,820 interesting one that I actually had 413 00:17:36,470 --> 00:17:34,140 never heard of 414 00:17:38,090 --> 00:17:36,480 um Rob when did this case first come on 415 00:17:40,150 --> 00:17:38,100 your radar and yeah tell us a little 416 00:17:42,710 --> 00:17:40,160 about this one if you don't mind 417 00:17:45,529 --> 00:17:42,720 back in October 418 00:17:48,710 --> 00:17:45,539 um I had done this deep dive into 419 00:17:50,750 --> 00:17:48,720 Canadian UFO report which is fast become 420 00:17:54,169 --> 00:17:50,760 like my favorite UFO Journal because 421 00:17:56,990 --> 00:17:54,179 it's it's very down-homey kind of like 422 00:17:59,510 --> 00:17:57,000 uh very rustic in the way that it 423 00:18:03,169 --> 00:17:59,520 approaches investigation in these cases 424 00:18:04,850 --> 00:18:03,179 like oftentimes they include photos of 425 00:18:07,370 --> 00:18:04,860 the witnesses which you don't get in a 426 00:18:10,250 --> 00:18:07,380 lot of UFO journals so 427 00:18:13,730 --> 00:18:10,260 um there was this story from this woman 428 00:18:16,130 --> 00:18:13,740 named Bernice niblet and it's rare UFO 429 00:18:18,830 --> 00:18:16,140 journals when they devote page space 430 00:18:20,870 --> 00:18:18,840 specifically to Witnesses I've only ever 431 00:18:24,350 --> 00:18:20,880 seen it one other time like if the 432 00:18:26,150 --> 00:18:24,360 witness wasn't a a UFO investigator or 433 00:18:29,390 --> 00:18:26,160 anything like that and then uh the other 434 00:18:32,750 --> 00:18:29,400 case is uh Miriam's star she was given 435 00:18:35,570 --> 00:18:32,760 uh some space a flying saucer review she 436 00:18:38,570 --> 00:18:35,580 um she saw the uh Old Saybrook 437 00:18:42,650 --> 00:18:38,580 Blockheads which is uh this very strange 438 00:18:45,370 --> 00:18:42,660 case from 1957 in which uh Mary Starr 439 00:18:48,710 --> 00:18:45,380 she uh saw this weird 440 00:18:50,630 --> 00:18:48,720 UFO outside her bedroom window and she 441 00:18:54,650 --> 00:18:50,640 also saw these um 442 00:18:58,490 --> 00:18:54,660 weird beings on board and like uh 443 00:19:02,210 --> 00:18:58,500 they look kind of like a cross between 444 00:19:04,669 --> 00:19:02,220 like a Dalek with a square head on it 445 00:19:07,070 --> 00:19:04,679 with a red kind of orb in the middle of 446 00:19:09,529 --> 00:19:07,080 it it's a very strange case but uh with 447 00:19:11,510 --> 00:19:09,539 Bernice's case I think what was so 448 00:19:13,669 --> 00:19:11,520 interesting about it and covered it on 449 00:19:18,049 --> 00:19:13,679 the podcast is that 450 00:19:20,930 --> 00:19:18,059 it was so very personal to her like uh 451 00:19:23,810 --> 00:19:20,940 everything that she was seeing she 452 00:19:26,450 --> 00:19:23,820 basically moved to Keats Island and she 453 00:19:29,090 --> 00:19:26,460 winterized this cabin that uh she had 454 00:19:32,450 --> 00:19:29,100 moved into and before long she started 455 00:19:35,750 --> 00:19:32,460 having these Close Encounters like on a 456 00:19:39,710 --> 00:19:35,760 weekly basis almost and like these are 457 00:19:42,289 --> 00:19:39,720 strange crafts uh one of them is a 458 00:19:43,310 --> 00:19:42,299 barrel-shaped kind of craft and uh 459 00:19:47,270 --> 00:19:43,320 there's 460 00:19:49,310 --> 00:19:47,280 image that you see of Bernice looking up 461 00:19:52,010 --> 00:19:49,320 at that barrel-shaped object has taken 462 00:19:54,770 --> 00:19:52,020 her eight from Canadian UFO report Todd 463 00:19:57,650 --> 00:19:54,780 put his spin on it but uh the caption 464 00:20:00,409 --> 00:19:57,660 for that particular image said that the 465 00:20:02,810 --> 00:20:00,419 UFOs sounded like it was laughing so 466 00:20:05,150 --> 00:20:02,820 it's like okay this this is just like 467 00:20:07,610 --> 00:20:05,160 very very weird but she had like a lot 468 00:20:09,590 --> 00:20:07,620 of different sightings and like these 469 00:20:11,750 --> 00:20:09,600 things were very interactive with her 470 00:20:13,549 --> 00:20:11,760 and the only thing that you're not 471 00:20:16,010 --> 00:20:13,559 getting in this comic is that there are 472 00:20:18,350 --> 00:20:16,020 like Men In Black type of encounters 473 00:20:21,350 --> 00:20:18,360 that she has with 474 00:20:23,870 --> 00:20:21,360 um hydroman these kind of like uh 475 00:20:26,210 --> 00:20:23,880 Electrical Workers that uh you know 476 00:20:28,010 --> 00:20:26,220 inspect the lines and stuff like that 477 00:20:30,169 --> 00:20:28,020 um it didn't really detract from 478 00:20:32,150 --> 00:20:30,179 anything because it's kind of uh it's 479 00:20:34,190 --> 00:20:32,160 kind of it's strange in her account but 480 00:20:37,070 --> 00:20:34,200 like what you get right there is like 481 00:20:38,990 --> 00:20:37,080 the bulk of her like story and it's it's 482 00:20:42,289 --> 00:20:39,000 absolutely fantastic 483 00:20:45,169 --> 00:20:42,299 I love it um could you maybe run us 484 00:20:47,090 --> 00:20:45,179 through that last panel there I this I 485 00:20:49,970 --> 00:20:47,100 found really interesting you don't the 486 00:20:51,950 --> 00:20:49,980 only case that I really can think of 487 00:20:55,250 --> 00:20:51,960 that would connect or correlate to this 488 00:20:57,049 --> 00:20:55,260 is Ray Hernandez you know the guy who's 489 00:21:00,049 --> 00:20:57,059 come up with like these protocols and 490 00:21:02,750 --> 00:21:00,059 whatnot he recalls having like this orb 491 00:21:05,390 --> 00:21:02,760 in his actual home which you don't care 492 00:21:07,190 --> 00:21:05,400 about often um so apparently this 493 00:21:11,270 --> 00:21:07,200 happened to her as well 494 00:21:14,210 --> 00:21:11,280 yes yeah it did uh she uh she was 495 00:21:17,750 --> 00:21:14,220 basically sitting kind of bundled up uh 496 00:21:19,669 --> 00:21:17,760 in the cabin and she saw this orb kind 497 00:21:21,470 --> 00:21:19,679 of move into the room kind of fly around 498 00:21:24,830 --> 00:21:21,480 move around the kitchen and then it just 499 00:21:27,289 --> 00:21:24,840 kind of exited out and uh she at one 500 00:21:29,330 --> 00:21:27,299 point moved her bed like right in front 501 00:21:31,610 --> 00:21:29,340 of the window to like keep an eye on 502 00:21:33,350 --> 00:21:31,620 these things like she she was interested 503 00:21:36,529 --> 00:21:33,360 but she was terrified at the same time 504 00:21:38,990 --> 00:21:36,539 like uh it's it's interesting how she 505 00:21:41,870 --> 00:21:39,000 like boils down things into this human 506 00:21:44,450 --> 00:21:41,880 perspective that uh you know I can only 507 00:21:47,390 --> 00:21:44,460 imagine a woman who is largely alone on 508 00:21:49,130 --> 00:21:47,400 this island like Keats island is not 509 00:21:51,649 --> 00:21:49,140 very populated I think there's like 80 510 00:21:53,450 --> 00:21:51,659 people that live there now and there is 511 00:21:56,450 --> 00:21:53,460 uh I think like a Baptist camp or 512 00:21:58,669 --> 00:21:56,460 something like that on there but uh I 513 00:22:01,310 --> 00:21:58,679 like it's it's just 514 00:22:03,710 --> 00:22:01,320 the weird the weirdest of the weird like 515 00:22:05,990 --> 00:22:03,720 in in this small area this like hot spot 516 00:22:08,390 --> 00:22:06,000 that that just has this Myriad of 517 00:22:10,430 --> 00:22:08,400 activity that that she sees but yeah 518 00:22:12,590 --> 00:22:10,440 like that that's probably the strangest 519 00:22:14,990 --> 00:22:12,600 part of the entire thing is this 520 00:22:17,330 --> 00:22:15,000 she documents this one orb of light that 521 00:22:18,770 --> 00:22:17,340 just comes into the cabin and then uh 522 00:22:22,370 --> 00:22:18,780 eventually leaves 523 00:22:25,789 --> 00:22:22,380 man can you imagine like being one of 80 524 00:22:27,890 --> 00:22:25,799 people on an island and all this starts 525 00:22:30,770 --> 00:22:27,900 happening like talk about words 526 00:22:33,130 --> 00:22:30,780 spreading fast they probably they 527 00:22:36,350 --> 00:22:33,140 probably wanted her off at Island ASAP 528 00:22:38,930 --> 00:22:36,360 either either because she was crazy or 529 00:22:41,450 --> 00:22:38,940 it was about to become like a tourist 530 00:22:44,390 --> 00:22:41,460 attraction I don't know 531 00:22:46,250 --> 00:22:44,400 like she was very 532 00:22:48,649 --> 00:22:46,260 um she would try to engage people with 533 00:22:50,149 --> 00:22:48,659 it and they just kind of dismiss her 534 00:22:53,029 --> 00:22:50,159 like oh it's nothing don't even worry 535 00:22:55,370 --> 00:22:53,039 about it it's it's not even it's nothing 536 00:22:56,990 --> 00:22:55,380 worth worrying about so like she kept 537 00:22:59,690 --> 00:22:57,000 going through this over and over again 538 00:23:02,210 --> 00:22:59,700 talking to police who had uh boats in 539 00:23:04,370 --> 00:23:02,220 the harbor like patrolling and like they 540 00:23:06,289 --> 00:23:04,380 just would not take her seriously there 541 00:23:08,090 --> 00:23:06,299 was one that made an offhand comment 542 00:23:10,210 --> 00:23:08,100 it's like oh yeah it's nothing new it 543 00:23:13,250 --> 00:23:10,220 just happens 544 00:23:16,490 --> 00:23:13,260 yep sounds about right typical typical 545 00:23:19,070 --> 00:23:16,500 Keats Island BS as usual 546 00:23:21,409 --> 00:23:19,080 um well Todd I gotta ask you man like 547 00:23:24,289 --> 00:23:21,419 Rob mentioned you know there's often 548 00:23:26,630 --> 00:23:24,299 sketches of like the craft or or even 549 00:23:30,169 --> 00:23:26,640 the witness sometimes there's a photo or 550 00:23:32,630 --> 00:23:30,179 whatnot but like what is what is it like 551 00:23:35,390 --> 00:23:32,640 interpreting these crafts because like 552 00:23:37,130 --> 00:23:35,400 in the UFO world uh witness testimony 553 00:23:40,789 --> 00:23:37,140 like their description of a craft is 554 00:23:42,470 --> 00:23:40,799 like Bible you you you want to you want 555 00:23:44,690 --> 00:23:42,480 to like stick with that as as much as 556 00:23:46,130 --> 00:23:44,700 possible but also as an artist like you 557 00:23:47,930 --> 00:23:46,140 have to make it compelling you have to 558 00:23:49,789 --> 00:23:47,940 make it aesthetically pleasing you gotta 559 00:23:51,529 --> 00:23:49,799 kind of give it your own spin what what 560 00:23:53,990 --> 00:23:51,539 is that challenge like when it comes to 561 00:23:55,909 --> 00:23:54,000 like a witness saying it was this big 562 00:23:57,529 --> 00:23:55,919 this that this that 563 00:24:01,130 --> 00:23:57,539 um yes how do you how do you tackle 564 00:24:03,649 --> 00:24:01,140 something like that so I I try to stay 565 00:24:05,690 --> 00:24:03,659 pretty true in like Rob said if you 566 00:24:07,730 --> 00:24:05,700 looked at the image that the main image 567 00:24:09,529 --> 00:24:07,740 on this page the one that came from the 568 00:24:12,350 --> 00:24:09,539 Canadian UFO Journal like come 569 00:24:14,330 --> 00:24:12,360 compositionally structurally it's pretty 570 00:24:15,890 --> 00:24:14,340 dead on like I I try and stay pretty 571 00:24:17,090 --> 00:24:15,900 true to what is offered in those 572 00:24:18,890 --> 00:24:17,100 journals because I think there is 573 00:24:21,230 --> 00:24:18,900 something special to those drawings like 574 00:24:23,690 --> 00:24:21,240 there is like a big source of the 575 00:24:26,090 --> 00:24:23,700 inspiration and when I saw how much I 576 00:24:28,610 --> 00:24:26,100 love the connection between creativity 577 00:24:30,230 --> 00:24:28,620 and the weird whether it's UFOs or 578 00:24:33,770 --> 00:24:30,240 paranormal any of it I think there's a 579 00:24:36,470 --> 00:24:33,780 huge uh thread that connects the two and 580 00:24:38,990 --> 00:24:36,480 when I saw how many of these people had 581 00:24:41,930 --> 00:24:39,000 experienced these things are inspired to 582 00:24:43,850 --> 00:24:41,940 re-create the thing visually or how much 583 00:24:47,090 --> 00:24:43,860 the Aesthetics play into their 584 00:24:48,710 --> 00:24:47,100 experience it made it inspired me to 585 00:24:50,570 --> 00:24:48,720 keep it pretty true to what they're 586 00:24:52,730 --> 00:24:50,580 putting out there because I think that's 587 00:24:55,430 --> 00:24:52,740 important so really the biggest thing I 588 00:24:56,990 --> 00:24:55,440 try to do is I try to change up the 589 00:24:58,490 --> 00:24:57,000 color palette to make it a little bit 590 00:25:01,970 --> 00:24:58,500 more fun and a little bit more 591 00:25:03,830 --> 00:25:01,980 imaginative and loosen up the reality of 592 00:25:05,810 --> 00:25:03,840 it all I feel like if I can kind of 593 00:25:08,090 --> 00:25:05,820 loosen up the color palette and make it 594 00:25:10,190 --> 00:25:08,100 so that there's a little bit more of a 595 00:25:11,870 --> 00:25:10,200 dreamy feel to the whole thing thing it 596 00:25:13,730 --> 00:25:11,880 makes a reality for these things to 597 00:25:15,770 --> 00:25:13,740 exist in a little better if that makes 598 00:25:17,870 --> 00:25:15,780 sense but yeah in general I try to stay 599 00:25:19,430 --> 00:25:17,880 pretty true to what they're creating and 600 00:25:21,830 --> 00:25:19,440 this one was another one that I had 601 00:25:23,990 --> 00:25:21,840 never heard of before until Rob sent it 602 00:25:25,370 --> 00:25:24,000 to me and the island thing is super 603 00:25:27,590 --> 00:25:25,380 interesting I definitely think there's 604 00:25:31,010 --> 00:25:27,600 something to isolation and these events 605 00:25:32,390 --> 00:25:31,020 I know uh Rob not to maybe a spoiler 606 00:25:34,190 --> 00:25:32,400 alert here but I know Rob's been looking 607 00:25:36,470 --> 00:25:34,200 into Jeff the Mongoose which is another 608 00:25:40,990 --> 00:25:36,480 one of my favorite island uh weirdness 609 00:25:43,850

612 00:25:50,149 --> 00:25:47,700 through these cases as we as we keep 613 00:25:51,950 --> 00:25:50,159 moving through them yep something with 614 00:25:54,230 --> 00:25:51,960 the water I'm telling you see there's 615 00:25:56,390 --> 00:25:54,240 something there absolutely there's 616 00:25:59,810 --> 00:25:56,400 something there all right guys let's 617 00:26:01,970 --> 00:25:59,820 move on to probably the man with the 618 00:26:04,810 --> 00:26:01,980 best last name I have ever heard in my 619 00:26:08,570 --> 00:26:04,820 entire life Dan duckleby 620 00:26:10,789 --> 00:26:08,580 uh what's going on here uh Rob give it 621 00:26:12,289 --> 00:26:10,799 to us man what is this case I've never 622 00:26:15,350 --> 00:26:12,299 heard of this one 623 00:26:18,230 --> 00:26:15,360 so uh one of the resources that I like 624 00:26:21,169 --> 00:26:18,240 to use when digging up kind of um 625 00:26:25,430 --> 00:26:21,179 humanoid encounters is uh the humanoid 626 00:26:28,490 --> 00:26:25,440 catalog that uh David Webb Ted blotcher 627 00:26:32,870 --> 00:26:28,500 um they kind of compiled it and um it's 628 00:26:34,970 --> 00:26:32,880 uh contained on kufos's website and when 629 00:26:37,250 --> 00:26:34,980 you open them up there are these long 630 00:26:40,430 --> 00:26:37,260 PDF documents and they look like 631 00:26:41,630 --> 00:26:40,440 pictures of basically like index cards 632 00:26:43,990 --> 00:26:41,640 so 633 00:26:46,010 --> 00:26:44,000 I opened up the one for I think this was 634 00:26:49,430 --> 00:26:46,020 1965 because I was looking for 635 00:26:51,049 --> 00:26:49,440 supplementary material for a series I 636 00:26:54,710 --> 00:26:51,059 did on all the weird stuff that happened 637 00:26:57,950 --> 00:26:54,720 in the United States in 65 to 67 and 638 00:27:01,010 --> 00:26:57,960 this case just kind of stuck out uh well 639 00:27:03,230 --> 00:27:01,020 for one it said that it came from FBI 640 00:27:06,529 --> 00:27:03,240 Files okay 641 00:27:08,810 --> 00:27:06,539 um that's just absolutely weird two that 642 00:27:09,769 --> 00:27:08,820 name Dan Double B does stick out but 643 00:27:12,890 --> 00:27:09,779 like 644 00:27:15,470 --> 00:27:12,900 dudes out in Bozeman Montana hunting and 645 00:27:17,450 --> 00:27:15,480 he hears a weird sound looks over and he 646 00:27:20,149 --> 00:27:17,460 sees this like rocket sitting on the 647 00:27:23,930 --> 00:27:20,159 ground this tall rocket and these robots 648 00:27:26,390 --> 00:27:23,940 get out they've got forearms they're uh 649 00:27:27,169 --> 00:27:26,400 going around collecting samples and I'm 650 00:27:29,210 --> 00:27:27,179 like 651 00:27:32,570 --> 00:27:29,220 it's a crime that nobody has ever 652 00:27:34,490 --> 00:27:32,580 Illustrated this I'm like that was the 653 00:27:35,930 --> 00:27:34,500 one thing that I thought of like nobody 654 00:27:38,990 --> 00:27:35,940 knows about this case I think it'd be 655 00:27:41,390 --> 00:27:39,000 like for a great welcome UFO people so I 656 00:27:43,970 --> 00:27:41,400 wrote out the script this is uh this is 657 00:27:46,730 --> 00:27:43,980 the second installment of the comic and 658 00:27:49,310 --> 00:27:46,740 I knew Todd would put his like just 659 00:27:51,710 --> 00:27:49,320 absolute perfect spin on it because like 660 00:27:54,529 --> 00:27:51,720 you know all these robots are happy 661 00:27:56,510 --> 00:27:54,539 they're collecting flowers and air and 662 00:27:58,190 --> 00:27:56,520 like so many samples and then you got a 663 00:27:59,510 --> 00:27:58,200 supervisor in the back who's just like 664 00:28:01,610 --> 00:27:59,520 happy with all the progress and stuff 665 00:28:03,950 --> 00:28:01,620 like that then like this is like the 666 00:28:05,990 --> 00:28:03,960 perfect amalgamation of what we do and 667 00:28:09,649 --> 00:28:06,000 like uh you know finding these like 668 00:28:11,450 --> 00:28:09,659 really odd cases that I know Todd it's 669 00:28:15,289 --> 00:28:11,460 right up Todd's alley and that he can 670 00:28:16,610 --> 00:28:15,299 like turn into and make uniquely his and 671 00:28:18,970 --> 00:28:16,620 that's and that's what he did with this 672 00:28:22,730 --> 00:28:18,980 and that's it's one of my favorites 673 00:28:25,250 --> 00:28:22,740 it's so warm like when I when I looked 674 00:28:28,130 --> 00:28:25,260 at this one it just immediately my heart 675 00:28:31,370 --> 00:28:28,140 felt fuzzy especially the last panel 676 00:28:33,110 --> 00:28:31,380 there um Todd yeah man like what what 677 00:28:36,230 --> 00:28:33,120 does this one mean to you I think this 678 00:28:39,590 --> 00:28:36,240 really like is a representation of that 679 00:28:41,890 --> 00:28:39,600 that kind of emotion that positive 680 00:28:44,450 --> 00:28:41,900 emotional impact you were going for 681 00:28:46,370 --> 00:28:44,460 absolutely this one was a bit different 682 00:28:48,470 --> 00:28:46,380 again never heard of it until Rob sent 683 00:28:50,390 --> 00:28:48,480 it to me and since it didn't really have 684 00:28:53,690 --> 00:28:50,400 any visuals with it I could really kind 685 00:28:55,730 --> 00:28:53,700 of lean into doing it and like go Whole 686 00:28:58,130 --> 00:28:55,740 Hog with the Wonder and The Whimsy and 687 00:29:00,169 --> 00:28:58,140 the really have fun with it and what I I 688 00:29:02,090 --> 00:29:00,179 do love to share this stuff like I work 689 00:29:04,010 --> 00:29:02,100 on this stuff I have two kids and I'm on 690 00:29:05,990 --> 00:29:04,020 the couch strolling with them a lot of 691 00:29:08,149 --> 00:29:06,000 the times on this stuff because this is 692 00:29:10,549 --> 00:29:08,159 the stuff I do after the stuff I get 693 00:29:12,289 --> 00:29:10,559 paid to draw so I'm doing it like around 694 00:29:13,549 --> 00:29:12,299 the family a lot I never want to have 695 00:29:15,470 --> 00:29:13,559 something that I've been like no don't 696 00:29:17,090 --> 00:29:15,480 look at this or like you know so I'm 697 00:29:18,470 --> 00:29:17,100 constantly showing my kids what I'm 698 00:29:20,690 --> 00:29:18,480 working on and this was one of those 699 00:29:22,610 --> 00:29:20,700 ones that like as soon as I finish the 700 00:29:24,289 --> 00:29:22,620 bottom panel my six-year-old came 701 00:29:26,149 --> 00:29:24,299 running over I was like what is that 702 00:29:28,730 --> 00:29:26,159 like I want this and he's really into 703 00:29:30,830 --> 00:29:28,740 robots and space right now and he's a 704 00:29:33,110 --> 00:29:30,840 very he's a huge source of inspiration 705 00:29:35,330 --> 00:29:33,120 and weirdness for me but uh yeah this 706 00:29:36,830 --> 00:29:35,340 one was the one that helped solidify 707 00:29:39,830 --> 00:29:36,840 that whole idea that I've been working 708 00:29:42,649 --> 00:29:39,840 on as far as how to present a kind of 709 00:29:45,049 --> 00:29:42,659 positive paranormal primer to my kids 710 00:29:46,430 --> 00:29:45,059 and like it's really it was like Rob 711 00:29:48,289 --> 00:29:46,440 said the second one and kind of 712 00:29:49,850 --> 00:29:48,299 solidified that that's a big part of 713 00:29:52,430 --> 00:29:49,860 what I want to do with these and what 714 00:29:55,310 --> 00:29:52,440 Rob's uh offering me by finding these 715 00:29:58,130 --> 00:29:55,320 like just kind of cases that mix that 716 00:30:00,409 --> 00:29:58,140 absurdity with that like uh you know 717 00:30:01,789 --> 00:30:00,419 physicality that's my favorite part of 718 00:30:04,610 --> 00:30:01,799 all these two it was like you know I 719 00:30:06,470 --> 00:30:04,620 definitely love the idea of a lot of 720 00:30:08,870 --> 00:30:06,480 this stuff having a psychic link and 721 00:30:11,210 --> 00:30:08,880 being something self-reflective about 722 00:30:12,649 --> 00:30:11,220 the experiencer and things like that but 723 00:30:14,389 --> 00:30:12,659 I also don't discount the physical 724 00:30:16,310 --> 00:30:14,399 elements of these things and something 725 00:30:18,409 --> 00:30:16,320 like this combines those two in the 726 00:30:20,510 --> 00:30:18,419 perfect way for me where you get to draw 727 00:30:22,370 --> 00:30:20,520 you know silly little robots collecting 728 00:30:23,649 --> 00:30:22,380 flowers because they need to collect 729 00:30:26,570 --> 00:30:23,659 pretty flowers 730 00:30:29,570 --> 00:30:26,580 right well and you know that goes back 731 00:30:33,710 --> 00:30:29,580 to the whole idea of you know these 732 00:30:35,690 --> 00:30:33,720 aliens or or robots uh sampling things I 733 00:30:38,450 --> 00:30:35,700 know rob you you're you're a big fan of 734 00:30:41,269 --> 00:30:38,460 the case in it's in New York right where 735 00:30:43,310 --> 00:30:41,279 the the New Jersey soil samples New 736 00:30:45,590 --> 00:30:43,320 Jersey New Jersey North Bergen New 737 00:30:49,010 --> 00:30:45,600 Jersey yeah the um the Stonehenge 738 00:30:53,029 --> 00:30:49,020 incident which uh is is is gonna come up 739 00:30:56,630 --> 00:30:53,039 I think it's next month's uh earlier 740 00:30:58,909 --> 00:30:56,640 right yeah yeah but uh you know all 741 00:31:03,169 --> 00:30:58,919 these you know George obarsky driving 742 00:31:05,090 --> 00:31:03,179 home from uh his job he worked uh he 743 00:31:06,889 --> 00:31:05,100 co-owned a liquor store and he was 744 00:31:09,889 --> 00:31:06,899 cutting through North Hudson Park which 745 00:31:11,450 --> 00:31:09,899 I think uh I think it's called the James 746 00:31:13,970 --> 00:31:11,460 J Braddock 747 00:31:14,630 --> 00:31:13,980 um North Hudson Park now but 748 00:31:18,310 --> 00:31:14,640 um 749 00:31:20,750 --> 00:31:18,320 cuts through and he's paced by a UFO and 750 00:31:23,210 --> 00:31:20,760 UFO kind of pulls ahead of him and it 751 00:31:25,010 --> 00:31:23,220 stops in this field and he watches these 752 00:31:27,529 --> 00:31:25,020 10 beings get out and start collecting 753 00:31:29,210 --> 00:31:27,539 soil samples and yeah there are a lot of 754 00:31:33,710 --> 00:31:29,220 similarities and I'm like uh there's no 755 00:31:39,110 --> 00:31:36,769 again it would be a crime if he didn't 756 00:31:42,830 --> 00:31:39,120 um right ah Doug will be I love this 757 00:31:45,169 --> 00:31:42,840 this one really really uh warms my heart 758 00:31:46,730 --> 00:31:45,179 on a frigid day in Scotland 759 00:31:49,730 --> 00:31:46,740 um 760 00:31:51,950 --> 00:31:49,740 to this one guys this one's a little uh 761 00:31:55,190 --> 00:31:51,960 not scary but we're definitely getting 762 00:31:58,070 --> 00:31:55,200 into more close encount really close 763 00:32:00,529 --> 00:31:58,080 encounter and possible abduction 764 00:32:03,250 --> 00:32:00,539 um territory uh and this is the case of 765 00:32:06,889 --> 00:32:03,260 hollow katano I believe 766 00:32:08,810 --> 00:32:06,899 1971. am I reading that right yeah yeah 767 00:32:11,690 --> 00:32:08,820 who wants yeah 768 00:32:13,549 --> 00:32:11,700 Apollo he's uh he's an interesting guy 769 00:32:16,310 --> 00:32:13,559 and like you kind of got to take what he 770 00:32:17,990 --> 00:32:16,320 says with uh you know a grain of salt 771 00:32:21,350 --> 00:32:18,000 but 772 00:32:23,330 --> 00:32:21,360 um he claims that in 1971 he was just 773 00:32:25,669 --> 00:32:23,340 driving home he was kind of harassed by 774 00:32:27,769 --> 00:32:25,679 this UFO and it followed him for a while 775 00:32:29,870 --> 00:32:27,779 until it just like cut off his car in 776 00:32:32,090 --> 00:32:29,880 the middle of the road and it's a tiny 777 00:32:33,289 --> 00:32:32,100 UFO it's not more than a few feet in 778 00:32:36,049 --> 00:32:33,299 diameter 779 00:32:37,909 --> 00:32:36,059 um and these really short beings less 780 00:32:40,490 --> 00:32:37,919 than a foot tall get out and they walk 781 00:32:43,370 --> 00:32:40,500 over to his car and they use like 782 00:32:45,529 --> 00:32:43,380 um uh telekinesis to open his uh 783 00:32:49,310 --> 00:32:45,539 driver's side door and they escort him 784 00:32:52,010 --> 00:32:49,320 inside like we're talking like a tardis 785 00:32:54,830 --> 00:32:52,020 kind of situation here where you know 786 00:32:56,570 --> 00:32:54,840 he's like somehow inside this object and 787 00:32:58,549 --> 00:32:56,580 one of the most arresting images with 788 00:33:01,010 --> 00:32:58,559 this case when you look it up 789 00:33:03,529 --> 00:33:01,020 um it's in uh Flying Saucer review and 790 00:33:06,470 --> 00:33:03,539 one of their special issues but uh the 791 00:33:09,769 --> 00:33:06,480 the center image on the bottom there is 792 00:33:13,389 --> 00:33:09,779 lifted directly from the case files like 793 00:33:17,210 --> 00:33:13,399 there's a bare bone sketch of Apollo 794 00:33:19,370 --> 00:33:17,220 standing underneath this light that you 795 00:33:20,750 --> 00:33:19,380 know is above him and there's this plank 796 00:33:22,610 --> 00:33:20,760 and there's this like little being 797 00:33:24,110 --> 00:33:22,620 walking across it and it's like it's one 798 00:33:26,509 --> 00:33:24,120 of the most Whimsical things that you 799 00:33:29,930 --> 00:33:26,519 can see and I'm like there's no way that 800 00:33:31,850 --> 00:33:29,940 we're not like doing that so I included 801 00:33:33,950 --> 00:33:31,860 that and I I love Todd's version of it 802 00:33:35,570 --> 00:33:33,960 because he talks about like uh you know 803 00:33:37,310 --> 00:33:35,580 I was in the space and I was seeing 804 00:33:38,690 --> 00:33:37,320 movement and I was seeing color come 805 00:33:40,549 --> 00:33:38,700 down at me 806 00:33:41,690 --> 00:33:40,559 and eventually he wakes up next to his 807 00:33:43,430 --> 00:33:41,700 car 808 00:33:46,070 --> 00:33:43,440 um and he claimed to have further 809 00:33:49,009 --> 00:33:46,080 contacts with other beings uh this was a 810 00:33:51,649 --> 00:33:49,019 case that I covered uh yeah back in like 811 00:33:55,190 --> 00:33:51,659 uh August I think it was and it and it's 812 00:33:58,130 --> 00:33:55,200 just so it's so strange uh just because 813 00:34:00,230 --> 00:33:58,140 of the proportions of these aliens and 814 00:34:03,649 --> 00:34:00,240 this craft and and stuff like that it's 815 00:34:06,470 --> 00:34:03,659 just so very strange and uh yeah it's 816 00:34:08,030 --> 00:34:06,480 just it made sense for the first uh 817 00:34:09,770 --> 00:34:08,040 welcome UFO people because I really 818 00:34:11,810 --> 00:34:09,780 wanted to see how Todd was going to do 819 00:34:13,010 --> 00:34:11,820 that one image and he knocked it out of 820 00:34:16,490 --> 00:34:13,020 the park 821 00:34:19,909 --> 00:34:16,500 so and this was the first one is that 822 00:34:22,010 --> 00:34:19,919 correct okay yep gotcha gotcha um so 823 00:34:24,470 --> 00:34:22,020 what was that like the first one coming 824 00:34:26,389 --> 00:34:24,480 together like what were you guys 825 00:34:28,310 --> 00:34:26,399 um what'd you think dear were you like 826 00:34:33,790 --> 00:34:28,320 oh yeah we got to keep going with this 827 00:34:39,530 --> 00:34:37,550 yeah from my end when I got to get going 828 00:34:41,510 --> 00:34:39,540 on this Rob had already pre-loaded like 829 00:34:44,089 --> 00:34:41,520 three or four scripts at the off the bat 830 00:34:47,089 --> 00:34:44,099 so I this was the first one I really got 831 00:34:49,310 --> 00:34:47,099 to dive into and I'd say like two panels 832 00:34:51,649 --> 00:34:49,320 in I was hooked I was like this is fun 833 00:34:53,810 --> 00:34:51,659 and I was still kind of formulating the 834 00:34:55,190 --> 00:34:53,820 aesthetic like I had a pretty good idea 835 00:34:57,349 --> 00:34:55,200 of what I wanted it to look like from 836 00:34:59,870 --> 00:34:57,359 the get-go but you can see the 837 00:35:02,030 --> 00:34:59,880 progression even just the previous one 838 00:35:03,770 --> 00:35:02,040 with the robots versus this one how I 839 00:35:05,930 --> 00:35:03,780 kind of already leaned into more 840 00:35:08,510 --> 00:35:05,940 colorful and brighter and less of the 841 00:35:10,670 --> 00:35:08,520 and less of the uh the darker tones but 842 00:35:12,109 --> 00:35:10,680 the thing that's been consistent is 843 00:35:16,190 --> 00:35:12,119 exactly what Rob said like I really 844 00:35:17,870 --> 00:35:16,200 focus on getting that like uh main image 845 00:35:19,910 --> 00:35:17,880 that's provided by these accounts he's 846 00:35:22,130 --> 00:35:19,920 finding and kind of putting my own spin 847 00:35:23,750 --> 00:35:22,140 on it while staying true and again I'm 848 00:35:25,250 --> 00:35:23,760 doing that a lot of the times via color 849 00:35:26,690 --> 00:35:25,260 because a lot of the accounts he's 850 00:35:28,069 --> 00:35:26,700 sending me are black and white sketches 851 00:35:30,950 --> 00:35:28,079 so that's where I can really kind of 852 00:35:33,290 --> 00:35:30,960 liven it up and that still remain true 853 00:35:35,150 --> 00:35:33,300 with what is being experienced and I 854 00:35:38,450 --> 00:35:35,160 mean anything with little folk I'm into 855 00:35:40,910 --> 00:35:38,460 I I love I I love the the small people 856 00:35:43,370 --> 00:35:40,920 that seem to or small beings that seem 857 00:35:45,670 --> 00:35:43,380 to pop up in all of these uh stories of 858 00:35:48,530 --> 00:35:45,680 the weird for all the cultures forever 859 00:35:51,410 --> 00:35:48,540 right yeah I mean tracing back to the 860 00:35:53,630 --> 00:35:51,420 whole you know Magonia sort of feeling 861 00:35:56,030 --> 00:35:53,640 and a lot of this stuff like 862 00:35:58,370 --> 00:35:56,040 going back to like the days of the 863 00:36:00,349 --> 00:35:58,380 fairies and the Fey folk and and you 864 00:36:02,750 --> 00:36:00,359 really do see a lot of that in these 865 00:36:05,990 --> 00:36:02,760 humanoid cases and whatnot it's 866 00:36:08,210 --> 00:36:06,000 fascinating and um yeah yeah this one 867 00:36:10,370 --> 00:36:08,220 you you you're right now that I now that 868 00:36:12,530 --> 00:36:10,380 I know this was the first one you can 869 00:36:15,589 --> 00:36:12,540 definitely see you leaning more into the 870 00:36:17,930 --> 00:36:15,599 uh the colorful aspects um and and 871 00:36:20,270 --> 00:36:17,940 that's no more true than with the next 872 00:36:22,670 --> 00:36:20,280 one no the Simonton case the pancake 873 00:36:25,609 --> 00:36:22,680 case is one of my favorite UFO cases but 874 00:36:28,849 --> 00:36:25,619 the next one you guys did is by far my 875

heads out like he 893 00:37:31,730 --> 00:37:28,680 normally does it's a cold Valentine's 894 00:37:33,890 --> 00:37:31,740 Day in Missouri and he heads outside and 895 00:37:36,770 --> 00:37:33,900 he notices that his cows are all staring 896 00:37:38,030 --> 00:37:36,780 in the same direction so he finds that 897 00:37:40,970 --> 00:37:38,040 kind of weird and he looks in the same 898 00:37:43,910 --> 00:37:40,980 direction and he sees this it's a like a 899 00:37:46,490 --> 00:37:43,920 mushroom-shaped object and and I love 900 00:37:48,410 --> 00:37:46,500 Todd's interpretation of it uh the way 901 00:37:50,210 --> 00:37:48,420 that he did it and 902 00:37:52,490 --> 00:37:50,220 um he sees that underneath this there 903 00:37:54,349 --> 00:37:52,500 are these green beings just kind of like 904 00:37:56,270 --> 00:37:54,359 shuffling around underneath the thing 905 00:37:58,490 --> 00:37:56,280 and like the cows are looking but 906 00:38:00,770 --> 00:37:58,500 they're not really startled but Claude 907 00:38:03,170 --> 00:38:00,780 decides to go over and he's gonna start 908 00:38:04,790 --> 00:38:03,180 pelting these beings with rocks but uh 909 00:38:07,069 --> 00:38:04,800 when he does he finds that there's like 910 00:38:09,410 --> 00:38:07,079 a force field or something uh blocking 911 00:38:11,390 --> 00:38:09,420 him and these beings just like all 912 00:38:13,849 --> 00:38:11,400 disappear inside the object lifts off 913 00:38:17,390 --> 00:38:13,859 but it's it's one of those like weird 914 00:38:20,089 --> 00:38:17,400 Whimsical kind of uh encounters from a 915 00:38:22,609 --> 00:38:20,099 Down to Earth farmer that uh 916 00:38:24,050 --> 00:38:22,619 this is uh this is a Ted Phillips case 917 00:38:27,349 --> 00:38:24,060 it's it's one of my favorite Ted 918 00:38:29,569 --> 00:38:27,359 Phillips cases because uh he he uh like 919 00:38:32,270 --> 00:38:29,579 to investigate uh cases with the 920 00:38:34,069 --> 00:38:32,280 physical traces and stuff and uh he 921 00:38:36,290 --> 00:38:34,079 wrote a lot about this case in the uh 922 00:38:38,030 --> 00:38:36,300 mufon UFO journal and flying sauce 923 00:38:40,609 --> 00:38:38,040 review and stuff like this case 924 00:38:43,430 --> 00:38:40,619 perpetually kept up for uh kept coming 925 00:38:46,310 --> 00:38:43,440 up for him uh it wasn't until I think 926 00:38:49,609 --> 00:38:46,320 like the last 20 or 30 years that uh 927 00:38:52,069 --> 00:38:49,619 they finally decided to uh release his 928 00:38:54,710 --> 00:38:52,079 name Claude Edwards but uh yeah this is 929 00:38:57,470 --> 00:38:54,720 uh this is just like Whimsical as hell 930 00:38:59,089 --> 00:38:57,480 and and just uh you know the way I knew 931 00:39:01,130 --> 00:38:59,099 Todd was going to put a spin on it with 932 00:39:02,390 --> 00:39:01,140 these penguins in it it just turned out 933 00:39:05,690 --> 00:39:02,400 so great 934 00:39:09,109 --> 00:39:05,700 well and my what I love about this too 935 00:39:11,750 --> 00:39:09,119 is the fact that like the first reaction 936 00:39:14,450 --> 00:39:11,760 this guy has is to just Chuck rocks at 937 00:39:16,430 -->

00:39:30,170 --> 00:39:28,260 um yeah yeah Todd give it to us man what 944 00:39:33,170 --> 00:39:30,180 was it like yeah I love that Whimsical 945 00:39:34,790 --> 00:39:33,180 panel of the cows in space there totally 946 00:39:36,710 --> 00:39:34,800 this was one of my favorites and one of 947 00:39:37,910 --> 00:39:36,720 the few that I knew before Rob sent it 948 00:39:39,650 --> 00:39:37,920 over I don't know if it was the 949 00:39:41,410 --> 00:39:39,660 Kryptonite dudes that I probably first 950 00:39:43,790 --> 00:39:41,420 heard it through through but there was 951 00:39:45,890 --> 00:39:43,800 I've heard this one before and it's 952 00:39:47,930 --> 00:39:45,900 always been one of my favorites and I 953 00:39:50,750 --> 00:39:47,940 mean the fact there's a mushroom-shaped 954 00:39:53,270 --> 00:39:50,760 UFO and penguins getting out of it there 955 00:39:55,430 --> 00:39:53,280 was just so much fun to be had I I love 956 00:39:57,770 --> 00:39:55,440 the idea and the link with psychedelia 957 00:40:00,770 --> 00:39:57,780 and all these experiences so the fact I 958 00:40:02,870 --> 00:40:00,780 that they arrive in a very psychedelic 959 00:40:04,370 --> 00:40:02,880 symbols was beautiful and I I just 960 00:40:05,930 --> 00:40:04,380 thought was the coolest things I really 961 00:40:08,569 --> 00:40:05,940 wanted to kind of emphasize that 962 00:40:11,030 --> 00:40:08,579 mushroom shape of the uh the UFO there 963 00:40:13,550 --> 00:40:11,040 and especially I I like kicking around 964 00:40:16,190 --> 00:40:13,560 the idea that uh you know with all the 965 00:40:18,650 --> 00:40:16,200 Psychedelic images that maybe these 966 00:40:20,150 --> 00:40:18,660 beings or entities or whatever you would 967 00:40:22,010 --> 00:40:20,160 like to call them are coming here to 968 00:40:24,589 --> 00:40:22,020 have their own psychedelic Journeys that 969 00:40:26,510 --> 00:40:24,599 uh they are they're receiving some sort 970 00:40:28,609 --> 00:40:26,520 of psychedelic interaction between their 971 00:40:29,990 --> 00:40:28,619 relationship with us and I think this is 972 00:40:32,390 --> 00:40:30,000 one of those ones that could totally be 973 00:40:34,970 --> 00:40:32,400 a bunch of penguin uh entities coming 974 00:40:39,170 --> 00:40:34,980 here to do a little tripping on the 975 00:40:41,089 --> 00:40:39,180 weekend with uh with Claude

egg sitting in the road it looks exactly 994 00:41:42,770 --> 00:41:39,240 like it looks like half an egg sitting 995 00:41:44,510 --> 00:41:42,780 on like three or four legs and 996 00:41:46,130 --> 00:41:44,520 he sits there and he watches it he's 997 00:41:48,170 --> 00:41:46,140 about to get out of his vehicle and 998 00:41:50,630 --> 00:41:48,180 before he does he sees these short 999 00:41:53,210 --> 00:41:50,640 little beings and they're running 1000 00:41:55,790 --> 00:41:53,220 towards this craft and they get in and 1001 00:41:59,210 --> 00:41:55,800 it eventually lifts off but this to me 1002 00:42:02,089 --> 00:41:59,220 is the the spiritual successor to the 1003 00:42:04,310 --> 00:42:02,099 space Penguins because these just these 1004 00:42:06,410 --> 00:42:04,320 are space chickens like this that's the 1005 00:42:08,510 --> 00:42:06,420 only explanation they're space chickens 1006 00:42:11,089 --> 00:42:08,520 they look like like I could see this 1007 00:42:13,730 --> 00:42:11,099 being like some kind of alien chicken 1008 00:42:15,589 --> 00:42:13,740 just like running towards a craft and 1009 00:42:18,170 --> 00:42:15,599 you know getting getting back in like 1010 00:42:22,069 --> 00:42:18,180 their egg craft like and it and it just 1011 00:42:25,550 --> 00:42:22,079 like it seems so symbolic in many ways 1012 00:42:27,710 --> 00:42:25,560 um just uh like in the in the 1013 00:42:29,690 --> 00:42:27,720 presentation the craft in the in the 1014 00:42:31,010 --> 00:42:29,700 beings because they there's just 1015 00:42:32,650 --> 00:42:31,020 something about them that just reminds 1016 00:42:35,750 --> 00:42:32,660 me of chickens so 1017 00:42:37,910 --> 00:42:35,760 like it it made for the perfect case for 1018 00:42:41,270 --> 00:42:37,920 Todd because I knew he was going to like 1019 00:42:43,910 --> 00:42:41,280 this just like screams Todd like all the 1020 00:42:45,770 --> 00:42:43,920 way so 1021 00:42:47,510 --> 00:42:45,780 when I pick out a case and I start 1022 00:42:49,250 --> 00:42:47,520 writing a script because I don't 1023 00:42:51,170 --> 00:42:49,260 technically know how to do that I had to 1024 00:42:53,150 --> 00:42:51,180 kind of figure out how to do it and even 1025 00:42:55,069 --> 00:42:53,160 now I don't do it 1026 00:42:57,109 --> 00:42:55,079 um you know the greatest but one of the 1027 00:42:58,910 --> 00:42:57,119 things that I'll do is uh I'll picture 1028 00:43:00,230 --> 00:42:58,920 in my head how I think Todd will do it 1029 00:43:04,010 --> 00:43:00,240 and then I'll 1030 00:43:06,050 --> 00:43:04,020 um I'll put my I'll try and describe it 1031 00:43:08,809 --> 00:43:06,060 as best I can I'll 1032 00:43:10,670 --> 00:43:08,819 um you know there will be 1033 00:43:13,010 --> 00:43:10,680 um the description and then the text to 1034 00:43:16,670 --> 00:43:13,020 go with it and you go down into the five 1035 00:43:19,250 --> 00:43:16,680 panels but uh yeah this this uh a lot of 1036 00:43:20,750 --> 00:43:19,260 the times uh I will pick things that I 1037 00:43:22,550 --> 00:43:20,760 just want to see what Todd's going to do 1038 00:43:26,089 --> 00:43:22,560 with them and uh he knocked this one 1039 00:43:31,250 --> 00:43:28,010 and to add to that man for the the most 1040 00:43:33,650 --> 00:43:31,260 recent welcome UFO people yeah the two 1041 00:43:35,870 --> 00:43:33,660 things that I loved I mean okay the 1042 00:43:38,510 --> 00:43:35,880 cosmic chicken is great I think that's a 1043 00:43:40,490 --> 00:43:38,520 very apt uh description of this entity 1044 00:43:42,710 --> 00:43:40,500 but I also love that the entity almost 1045 00:43:44,750 --> 00:43:42,720 mirrors the craft like that big Bell 1046 00:43:47,270 --> 00:43:44,760 shape so this was one of those ones 1047 00:43:49,430 --> 00:43:47,280 where the entities are really small in 1048 00:43:51,829 --> 00:43:49,440 the account and that we kind of have to 1049 00:43:54,349 --> 00:43:51,839 do like a zoom in panel so you can get 1050 00:43:56,809 --> 00:43:54,359 that the scale is super tiny but you can 1051 00:43:58,250 --> 00:43:56,819 still see kind of what the entity was 1052 00:44:00,890 --> 00:43:58,260 described to look at and I just loved 1053 00:44:03,109 --> 00:44:00,900 that when you zoom in they kind of uh 1054 00:44:04,910 --> 00:44:03,119 mimic the shape of their craft that they 1055 00:44:07,670 --> 00:44:04,920 arrived in and I also loved that this 1056 00:44:09,770 --> 00:44:07,680 was a daytime encounter I have a lot of 1057 00:44:11,690 --> 00:44:09,780 you know a lot of these are occurring at 1058 00:44:13,670 --> 00:44:11,700 night and have kind of more of the 1059 00:44:14,990 --> 00:44:13,680 evening setting going on and this one I 1060 00:44:17,390 --> 00:44:15,000 got to use a lot of the bright blue 1061 00:44:19,970 --> 00:44:17,400 skies and really emphasize that you know 1062 00:44:22,970 --> 00:44:19,980 this is a big colorful experience going 1063 00:44:25,309 --> 00:44:22,980 on and that stark white egg as a kind of 1064 00:44:28,010 --> 00:44:25,319 contrast of the whole thing 1065 00:44:30,770 --> 00:44:28,020 cool man I love it the Chicken and the 1066 00:44:34,010 --> 00:44:30,780 Egg I couldn't think of a better way to 1067 00:44:37,490 --> 00:44:34,020 um to kind of wrap up welcome UFO people 1068 00:44:40,069 --> 00:44:37,500 however that's not the only project you 1069 00:44:42,829 --> 00:44:40,079 guys are doing together you're also 1070 00:44:44,270 --> 00:44:42,839 starting another kind of um 1071 00:44:46,250 --> 00:44:44,280 um what would you call it like maybe a 1072 00:44:49,190 --> 00:44:46,260 companion to this and you're doing 1073 00:44:51,770 --> 00:44:49,200 portraits too now which is super super 1074 00:44:56,329 --> 00:44:51,780 cool and you you started with the one 1075 00:44:58,309 --> 00:44:56,339 and only George adamski so um tell us a 1076 00:45:00,770 --> 00:44:58,319 little about the portrait project what 1077 00:45:02,630 --> 00:45:00,780 who you guys going to be covering and uh 1078 00:45:05,450 --> 00:45:02,640 what made you decide to kind of do this 1079 00:45:07,309 --> 00:45:05,460 as well a lot of the the ideas that we 1080 00:45:09,410 --> 00:45:07,319 have will just start with me sending 1081 00:45:11,030 --> 00:45:09,420 images to Todd on Instagram I'll just 1082 00:45:14,450 --> 00:45:11,040 like spam them with a bunch of images 1083 00:45:17,270 --> 00:45:14,460 and I'd be like and and this was an idea 1084 00:45:21,410 --> 00:45:17,280 that came up like uh what if we did 1085 00:45:24,470 --> 00:45:21,420 these portraits with you know not only 1086 00:45:26,510 --> 00:45:24,480 um you know UFO Witnesses and the beings 1087 00:45:29,210 --> 00:45:26,520 that they interact with but like some of 1088 00:45:31,010 --> 00:45:29,220 the investigators and some of the weird 1089 00:45:32,510 --> 00:45:31,020 beings that they've investigated like 1090 00:45:34,790 --> 00:45:32,520 there's there's one that I definitely 1091 00:45:36,829 --> 00:45:34,800 want us to do at some point which is 1092 00:45:40,550 --> 00:45:36,839 Anne ruffle and Ann druffle was a 1093 00:45:43,550 --> 00:45:40,560 fantastic investigator she um I she was 1094 00:45:45,710 --> 00:45:43,560 always objective although she had a very 1095 00:45:47,809 --> 00:45:45,720 Catholic vent to the way that she 1096 00:45:50,390 --> 00:45:47,819 believed in things but she always 1097 00:45:53,089 --> 00:45:50,400 presented things objectively and the 1098 00:45:54,650 --> 00:45:53,099 thing about Aunt ruffle is that she it 1099 00:45:57,230 --> 00:45:54,660 didn't matter how weird the cases were 1100 00:45:59,329 --> 00:45:57,240 she would uh you know she would 1101 00:46:02,329 --> 00:45:59,339 investigate him and like one of the um 1102 00:46:05,390 --> 00:46:02,339 strangest is the Palos Verdes brains 1103 00:46:08,450 --> 00:46:05,400 case which uh you know is uh is is such 1104 00:46:11,210 --> 00:46:08,460 a weird case of these two guys who are 1105 00:46:14,690 --> 00:46:11,220 heading home from a friend's house in 1106 00:46:16,309 --> 00:46:14,700 California and uh they turn on their car 1107 00:46:18,170 --> 00:46:16,319 lights in the middle of the road there 1108 00:46:22,250 --> 00:46:18,180 is this brain it's just sitting there 1109 00:46:24,230 --> 00:46:22,260 and uh this brain basically tells the 1110 00:46:26,690 --> 00:46:24,240 driver hey drop your buddy off at home 1111 00:46:28,970 --> 00:46:26,700 we're gonna abduct you and they abducted 1112 00:46:32,630 --> 00:46:28,980 him and he's shown a bunch of stuff on 1113 00:46:34,910 --> 00:46:32,640 board this craft and his Outlook is very 1114 00:46:37,130 --> 00:46:34,920 it's very Bleak at the end of it but 1115 00:46:39,650 --> 00:46:37,140 it's just such a weird case investigated 1116 00:46:41,990 --> 00:46:39,660 by Andrew ruffle so it'd be great to do 1117 00:46:45,170 --> 00:46:42,000 a portrait with Anne ruffle and all 1118 00:46:47,390 --> 00:46:45,180 these weird aliens that she investigated 1119 00:46:48,530 --> 00:46:47,400 I almost spit my coffee out when you 1120 00:46:50,990 --> 00:46:48,540 said uh 1121 00:46:53,270 --> 00:46:51,000 the brain I'm thinking of crying from 1122 00:46:56,230 --> 00:46:53,280 Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles basically 1123 00:46:59,329 --> 00:46:56,240 basically that's what it looks like and 1124 00:47:02,030 --> 00:46:59,339 this like large it's a large Brain it's 1125 00:47:04,730 --> 00:47:02,040 like it's oversized and it has this red 1126 00:47:07,670 --> 00:47:04,740 light on it and what he later finds out 1127 00:47:10,910 --> 00:47:07,680 uh the the experiencer in this case is 1128 00:47:12,650 --> 00:47:10,920 that the the red light is basically like 1129 00:47:15,840 --> 00:47:12,660 a tumor because it's old and it's 1130 00:47:25,150 --> 00:47:15,850 getting close to retirement no no 1131 00:47:30,950 --> 00:47:28,550 also I love the effect of like yo go 1132 00:47:34,370 --> 00:47:30,960 drop your loser friend off we only need 1133 00:47:36,109 --> 00:47:34,380 one of you to yeah we just needs you and 1134 00:47:38,089 --> 00:47:36,119 you know don't like don't even worry 1135 00:47:39,710 --> 00:47:38,099 about it and like uh you know there are 1136 00:47:41,809 --> 00:47:39,720 other beings that he interacted with 1137 00:47:44,150 --> 00:47:41,819 like these like really tall beings with 1138 00:47:47,150 --> 00:47:44,160 like webbed hands and stuff it's it's a 1139 00:47:49,849 --> 00:47:47,160 it's just a very strange case and like 1140 00:47:50,809 --> 00:47:49,859 Ann ruffle investigate a lot of them she 1141 00:47:53,329 --> 00:47:50,819 um 1142 00:47:56,089 --> 00:47:53,339 uh investigated the Harrison Bailey case 1143 00:47:58,450 --> 00:47:56,099 which is uh he was an African-American 1144 00:48:00,530 --> 00:47:58,460 man who is one of the earliest uh 1145 00:48:06,530 --> 00:48:00,540 abductees if you want to call him that 1146 00:48:10,069 --> 00:48:06,540 uh he was abducted in 1951 and he was 1147 00:48:13,849 --> 00:48:10,079 abducted by beings that look like large 1148 00:48:16,730 --> 00:48:13,859 frogs in in many ways like uh 1149 00:48:18,829 --> 00:48:16,740 um kind of similar to uh you know your 1150 00:48:22,130 --> 00:48:18,839 Loveland Frog man in a way but like 1151 00:48:24,470 --> 00:48:22,140 holding these like big sticks and like 1152 00:48:27,950 --> 00:48:24,480 it'd just be great to to get a portrait 1153 00:48:30,130 --> 00:48:27,960 of Anne ruffle with all these aliens 1154 00:48:32,510 --> 00:48:30,140 all the various aliens she's 1155 00:48:34,550 --> 00:48:32,520 investigating that's interesting 1156 00:48:36,470 --> 00:48:34,560 wow man 1157 00:48:38,930 --> 00:48:36,480 um well okay so what made you guys want 1158 00:48:40,730 --> 00:48:38,940 to start with a damn ski here I guess 1159 00:48:43,130 --> 00:48:40,740 so I think it like 1160 00:48:44,870 --> 00:48:43,140 it made sense to start with adomski 1161 00:48:47,210 --> 00:48:44,880 because he's kind of 1162 00:48:49,670 --> 00:48:47,220 when you think about him he's kind of 1163 00:48:51,290 --> 00:48:49,680 the first guy that you go to when you 1164 00:48:53,870 --> 00:48:51,300 think of alien contact in the United 1165 00:48:56,690 --> 00:48:53,880 States is that you know it's George 1166 00:48:59,870 --> 00:48:56,700 adamski he you know interacted with 1167 00:49:03,650 --> 00:48:59,880 orthon and you know a bunch of other 1168 00:49:05,450 --> 00:49:03,660 people and uh they all looked human so 1169 00:49:08,329 --> 00:49:05,460 it kind of made sense like there are 1170 00:49:11,569 --> 00:49:08,339 there are a lot of earlier kind of 1171 00:49:13,069 --> 00:49:11,579 humanoid cases and like you know one of 1172 00:49:14,930 --> 00:49:13,079 the things that I'm working on right now 1173 00:49:16,970 --> 00:49:14,940 is outlining a book that I'm writing 1174 00:49:18,290 --> 00:49:16,980 about a lot of 1175 00:49:20,089 --> 00:49:18,300 um like humanoids throughout the years 1176 00:49:21,950 --> 00:49:20,099 because they're so interesting like you 1177 00:49:25,190 --> 00:49:21,960 know you there are a lot of strange 1178 00:49:28,130 --> 00:49:25,200 humanoid cases from the 40s that you 1179 00:49:31,730 --> 00:49:28,140 know I found in uh up through you know 1180 00:49:34,370 --> 00:49:31,740 the the 2000s so uh it only made sense 1181 00:49:37,309 --> 00:49:34,380 to start with Georgia domsky like he 1182 00:49:40,130 --> 00:49:37,319 seems in many ways uh for a lot of 1183 00:49:43,430 --> 00:49:40,140 people to be like Ground Zero because uh 1184 00:49:45,950 --> 00:49:43,440 in the United States it was as if you 1185 00:49:47,569 --> 00:49:45,960 know the the UFO showed up but the 1186 00:49:49,250 --> 00:49:47,579 aliens didn't show up till a little bit 1187 00:49:52,309 --> 00:49:49,260 later so 1188 00:49:53,510 --> 00:49:52,319 George adamski just made total sense you 1189 00:49:56,450 --> 00:49:53,520 know to start with 1190 00:49:57,950 --> 00:49:56,460 yeah absolutely he's like uh-uh we're 1191 00:50:00,050 --> 00:49:57,960 not just talking about the craft we're 1192 00:50:02,210 --> 00:50:00,060 we're talking about the pilots in the 1193 00:50:05,390 --> 00:50:02,220 correct and I mean what's more iconic 1194 00:50:08,630 --> 00:50:05,400 than you know the yadamski saucer to be 1195 00:50:11,329 --> 00:50:08,640 honest it's just like again it's just 1196 00:50:13,010 --> 00:50:11,339 when I see that image it just warms my 1197 00:50:15,589 --> 00:50:13,020 heart it brings me back to like the 1198 00:50:18,470 --> 00:50:15,599 early days of when I flipped open my 1199 00:50:21,109 --> 00:50:18,480 first book on UFOs and saw like in a 1200 00:50:24,710 --> 00:50:21,119 demsky crafter or even a billy Meyer 1201 00:50:27,829 --> 00:50:24,720 craft and that was ufology for me back 1202 00:50:31,430 --> 00:50:27,839 then and uh huh God I wish it was still 1203 00:50:33,829 --> 00:50:31,440 that way now now we've got Tic Tacs and 1204 00:50:37,370 --> 00:50:33,839 we've got Tic Tacs yeah flying pizza 1205 00:50:40,970 --> 00:50:37,380 slices and we've got um and we got orbs 1206 00:50:42,950 --> 00:50:40,980 we got orbs but um yeah yeah Todd I was 1207 00:50:45,609 --> 00:50:42,960 gonna say what was it like doing this oh 1208 00:50:49,130 --> 00:50:45,619 this was great I I think uh I really 1209 00:50:51,710 --> 00:50:49,140 resonated when your recent guests uh rpj 1210 00:50:53,450 --> 00:50:51,720 spoke about how the contact D's get a 1211 00:50:55,970 --> 00:50:53,460 little uh poo poo too fast these days 1212 00:50:57,710 --> 00:50:55,980 days and I I so I love starting with the 1213 00:50:59,690 --> 00:50:57,720 damn ski because I I think there's so 1214 00:51:01,609 --> 00:50:59,700 much value in the stories of some of 1215 00:51:04,010 --> 00:51:01,619 these contactees and I love the 1216 00:51:05,510 --> 00:51:04,020 amalgamation of the culture at that time 1217 00:51:07,370 --> 00:51:05,520 that the New Age movement was really 1218 00:51:09,290 --> 00:51:07,380 taking off and that this was almost a 1219 00:51:11,150 --> 00:51:09,300 precursor to the New Age movement in a 1220 00:51:13,549 --> 00:51:11,160 lot of ways and the messages are so 1221 00:51:15,290 --> 00:51:13,559 similar and like there's so much in 1222 00:51:19,130 --> 00:51:15,300 there that I think is still very 1223 00:51:20,990 --> 00:51:19,140 valuable and you can access the Life 1224 00:51:22,430 --> 00:51:21,000 Enrichment side of these things through 1225 00:51:24,349 --> 00:51:22,440 the stories of that a lot of the 1226 00:51:26,930 --> 00:51:24,359 contactees bring and so yeah I love 1227 00:51:29,030 --> 00:51:26,940 starting with the damn ski and I I was 1228 00:51:30,829 --> 00:51:29,040 going to say that I agree with what you 1229 00:51:33,470 --> 00:51:30,839 just said Ryan but it's nice to see like 1230 00:51:35,510 --> 00:51:33,480 what we're doing here is a way to kind 1231 00:51:37,250 --> 00:51:35,520 of bring back the fun of it all and 1232 00:51:39,170 --> 00:51:37,260 bring back the imagination of it and 1233 00:51:41,030 --> 00:51:39,180 like the series that you've been doing 1234 00:51:43,130 --> 00:51:41,040 recently like your episode with Fred and 1235 00:51:46,069 --> 00:51:43,140 rpj and those like those are the things 1236 00:51:48,109 --> 00:51:46,079 that will make the uh phenomenon or 1237 00:51:50,390 --> 00:51:48,119 whatever if it really is reflective 1238 00:51:51,950 --> 00:51:50,400 change and go back to these stories and 1239 00:51:53,450 --> 00:51:51,960 get away from the military and the Tic 1240 00:51:55,849 --> 00:51:53,460 Tac at least in my mind I think story 1241 00:51:57,950 --> 00:51:55,859 are way more powerful than any of that 1242 00:51:59,750 --> 00:51:57,960 other stuff so if we can keep telling 1243 00:52:02,030 --> 00:51:59,760 the side of the store this side of these 1244 00:52:04,790 --> 00:52:02,040 stories then I think it will go back to 1245 00:52:07,190 --> 00:52:04,800 that oh thanks man well and I think 1246 00:52:09,170 --> 00:52:07,200 that's um you know what Rob and I have 1247 00:52:12,530 --> 00:52:09,180 always had in common we find a lot of 1248 00:52:15,950 --> 00:52:12,540 value in stories while a lot of UFO 1249 00:52:17,569 --> 00:52:15,960 researchers do not um it's not data for 1250 00:52:19,790 --> 00:52:17,579 them it's not something they can hold in 1251 00:52:22,490 --> 00:52:19,800 their hand or you know that they can 1252 00:52:24,710 --> 00:52:22,500 really dissect from a nuts and bolts 1253 00:52:26,990 --> 00:52:24,720 sort of ufology and and I think that's 1254 00:52:29,510 --> 00:52:27,000 why Rob and I connected so early on is 1255 00:52:32,089 --> 00:52:29,520 we we realize that it's it's a lot more 1256 00:52:33,970 --> 00:52:32,099 about the stories and the people telling 1257 00:52:36,290 --> 00:52:33,980 them and that's what I've always found 1258 00:52:38,270 --> 00:52:36,300 fascinating and I think in the last few 1259 00:52:41,690 --> 00:52:38,280 years and I do want to get both of your 1260 00:52:45,109 --> 00:52:41,700 thoughts on this uh ufology has uh 1261 00:52:46,609 --> 00:52:45,119 changed uh for for some people 1262 00:52:48,410 --> 00:52:46,619 um you know I I know a lot of 1263 00:52:52,069 --> 00:52:48,420 researchers that have completely ignored 1264 00:52:53,809 --> 00:52:52,079 everything post 2017 ufology and I 1265 00:52:55,490 --> 00:52:53,819 greatly respect that 1266 00:52:58,370 --> 00:52:55,500 um I got caught somewhere in the middle 1267 00:53:00,890 --> 00:52:58,380 of it I would say and um I think I 1268 00:53:01,910 --> 00:53:00,900 reached that point where I'm at right 1269 00:53:05,569 --> 00:53:01,920 now 1270 00:53:08,690 --> 00:53:05,579 um where it's just I want to go back to 1271 00:53:11,390 --> 00:53:08,700 the reasons that I first got involved in 1272 00:53:14,569 --> 00:53:11,400 this topic I I saw something in the sky 1273 00:53:17,270 --> 00:53:14,579 I couldn't explain I sought answers for 1274 00:53:19,730 --> 00:53:17,280 it and then I found this entire world 1275 00:53:22,309 --> 00:53:19,740 that I didn't know was out there and 1276 00:53:24,890 --> 00:53:22,319 that's stories like this stuff far 1277 00:53:27,829 --> 00:53:24,900 weirder than just this triangular thing 1278 00:53:29,630 --> 00:53:27,839 I saw in the sky or you know this egg 1279 00:53:32,450 --> 00:53:29,640 that Rob saw 1280 00:53:34,970 --> 00:53:32,460 um not not to you know not to say that 1281 00:53:37,490 --> 00:53:34,980 our sightings weren't uh life-changing 1282 00:53:39,770 --> 00:53:37,500 because they were for us but um yeah 1283 00:53:42,170 --> 00:53:39,780 it's stuff like this stuff like a demsky 1284 00:53:44,750 --> 00:53:42,180 stuff like space Penguins stuff like 1285 00:53:48,290 --> 00:53:44,760 aliens giving you know someone pancakes 1286 00:53:52,190 --> 00:53:48,300 in exchange for water like that's that's 1287 00:53:54,650 --> 00:53:52,200 what you follow gee I think is it's the 1288 00:53:57,829 --> 00:53:54,660 absurdist nature of something we'll 1289 00:54:00,950 --> 00:53:57,839 probably never truly understand and if 1290 00:54:03,589 --> 00:54:00,960 we try to understand it that's when you 1291 00:54:06,049 --> 00:54:03,599 know it gets frustrating and and that's 1292 00:54:08,030 --> 00:54:06,059 when it gets boring and I think right 1293 00:54:10,910 --> 00:54:08,040 now in ufology and I know I'm going off 1294 00:54:14,089 --> 00:54:10,920 on a diatribe here I apologize but 1295 00:54:16,309 --> 00:54:14,099 um we're finding people people just want 1296 00:54:18,950 --> 00:54:16,319 answers and they want them from the 1297 00:54:21,109 --> 00:54:18,960 United States government uh the people 1298 00:54:23,990 --> 00:54:21,119 who they did not trust to give them 1299 00:54:26,690 --> 00:54:24,000 those answers for 70 plus years but then 1300 00:54:28,730 --> 00:54:26,700 now all of a sudden they are the go-to 1301 00:54:31,010 --> 00:54:28,740 for it and um 1302 00:54:33,829 --> 00:54:31,020 I don't know it's I'm in this weird 1303 00:54:36,890 --> 00:54:33,839 place in my own personal journey within 1304 00:54:39,410 --> 00:54:36,900 ufology where like I can have the Navy 1305 00:54:41,870 --> 00:54:39,420 Tic Tac pilot on one week and that I can 1306 00:54:44,630 --> 00:54:41,880 have someone on talking about the 1307 00:54:46,069 --> 00:54:44,640 Swedish Men In Black the next week 1308 00:54:48,589 --> 00:54:46,079 um but I think that's what's also 1309 00:54:51,589 --> 00:54:48,599 beautiful about this you you can kind of 1310 00:54:53,750 --> 00:54:51,599 explore it from all different angles but 1311 00:54:57,710 --> 00:54:53,760 for me personally I think 1312 00:55:01,190 --> 00:54:57,720 um it just got too bogged down with uh 1313 00:55:04,250 --> 00:55:01,200 with the Tic Tacs and the dods and the 1314 00:55:06,309 --> 00:55:04,260 Congressional hearings and and are we 1315 00:55:09,530 --> 00:55:06,319 any closer to answers 1316 00:55:12,230 --> 00:55:09,540 I would argue no 1317 00:55:14,930 --> 00:55:12,240 um so why not go back into the case 1318 00:55:16,670 --> 00:55:14,940 history like you guys are doing and 1319 00:55:19,549 --> 00:55:16,680 maybe we could find some answers there 1320 00:55:20,829 --> 00:55:19,559 so yeah that was my long-winded way of 1321 00:55:23,990 --> 00:55:20,839 saying I love you 1322 00:55:26,210 --> 00:55:24,000 I love what you guys are doing that was 1323 00:55:28,130 --> 00:55:26,220 beautiful no I I resonate with a lot of 1324 00:55:30,890 --> 00:55:28,140 that Ryan and it's really nice to hear 1325 00:55:32,630 --> 00:55:30,900 it to be honest and like there's a one 1326 00:55:35,569 --> 00:55:32,640 of the things that always surprised me 1327 00:55:38,870 --> 00:55:35,579 as I got farther into things like this 1328 00:55:41,870 --> 00:55:38,880 is how far back some of the weirder or 1329 00:55:44,630 --> 00:55:41,880 the non-physical ideas go like when you 1330 00:55:47,150 --> 00:55:44,640 uh start learning about Carl Jung's work 1331 00:55:49,130 --> 00:55:47,160 with UFOs and the idea that 1332 00:55:52,250 --> 00:55:49,140 I feel like it gets mistaken a lot 1333 00:55:54,710 --> 00:55:52,260 because these types of ideas where it is 1334 00:55:57,589 --> 00:55:54,720 more of a psychic object that is a 1335 00:55:59,809 --> 00:55:57,599 co-created phenomenon or how you know 1336 00:56:02,089 --> 00:55:59,819 young never discounted the physical 1337 00:56:04,790 --> 00:56:02,099 aspect of these encounters the physical 1338 00:56:07,250 --> 00:56:04,800 aspect and the physical object was part 1339 00:56:10,069 --> 00:56:07,260 of why these were so unspecial and why 1340 00:56:12,290 --> 00:56:10,079 they serve the purpose of I think 1341 00:56:15,170 --> 00:56:12,300 Terence McKenna actually uh theorized 1342 00:56:17,150 --> 00:56:15,180 that they serve the purpose of reminding 1343 00:56:19,190 --> 00:56:17,160 us that we don't know what Consciousness 1344 00:56:21,109 --> 00:56:19,200 is we don't know what our mind is and 1345 00:56:22,910 --> 00:56:21,119 there's no way to solve the UFO 1346 00:56:25,069 --> 00:56:22,920 phenomenon until we figure out what 1347 00:56:26,930 --> 00:56:25,079 thinking is and when you think about how 1348 00:56:28,490 --> 00:56:26,940 long we've been thinking and still don't 1349 00:56:30,470 --> 00:56:28,500 know what that is it's kind of one of 1350 00:56:32,510 --> 00:56:30,480 those things that like it just keeps 1351 00:56:35,630 --> 00:56:32,520 going in circles and it's all just meant 1352 00:56:37,970 --> 00:56:35,640 to remind you that every day is kind of 1353 00:56:40,010 --> 00:56:37,980 magical and that the mundane is as 1354 00:56:42,710 --> 00:56:40,020 magical as you want it to be and it's 1355 00:56:44,450 --> 00:56:42,720 just funny that it goes in waves and I 1356 00:56:45,829 --> 00:56:44,460 love that there are people like you that 1357 00:56:48,049 --> 00:56:45,839 sit in the middle Ryan because I think 1358 00:56:49,549 --> 00:56:48,059 there's a lot of value too to the 1359 00:56:51,470 --> 00:56:49,559 physical side getting more people 1360 00:56:53,329 --> 00:56:51,480 thinking weirder and the more people 1361 00:56:55,910 --> 00:56:53,339 that think weird even if they don't go 1362 00:56:58,309 --> 00:56:55,920 into the the Deep weird as Dr Jack 1363 00:57:01,430 --> 00:56:58,319 Hunter I still think it's better for 1364 00:57:03,890 --> 00:57:01,440 everybody if that makes sense yeah man 1365 00:57:05,750 --> 00:57:03,900 and you know well while some people 1366 00:57:07,790 --> 00:57:05,760 think fence sitting is not a good thing 1367 00:57:11,150 --> 00:57:07,800 I'm gonna keep sitting on that fence 1368 00:57:13,609 --> 00:57:11,160 until my butt can't take it anymore but 1369 00:57:16,490 --> 00:57:13,619 um Rob something something I've 1370 00:57:20,089 --> 00:57:16,500 respected always about you Rob is 1371 00:57:24,170 --> 00:57:20,099 um you know ever since 2017 like you 1372 00:57:26,690 --> 00:57:24,180 stuck to what you first got like what 1373 00:57:29,270 --> 00:57:26,700 first got you into doing our Strange 1374 00:57:31,069 --> 00:57:29,280 skies and you never really veered away 1375 00:57:33,170 --> 00:57:31,079 from that and that's what kept me coming 1376 00:57:35,510 --> 00:57:33,180 back every week to listen to these 1377 00:57:37,010 --> 00:57:35,520 incredible stories so I gotta ask you I 1378 00:57:39,549 --> 00:57:37,020 don't think I've ever really asked you 1379 00:57:43,910 --> 00:57:39,559 this um on air at least like 1380 00:57:47,329 --> 00:57:43,920 what what do you make of post 2017 1381 00:57:50,390 --> 00:57:47,339 ufology and kind of um what made you not 1382 00:57:52,970 --> 00:57:50,400 really want to tackle any of that sort 1383 00:57:56,870 --> 00:57:52,980 of stuff if you don't mind me asking 1384 00:57:58,309 --> 00:57:56,880 so 2017 felt like a reset reset switch 1385 00:58:00,170 --> 00:57:58,319 for a lot of people I'd been 1386 00:58:04,190 --> 00:58:00,180 investigating and researching the stuff 1387 00:58:07,130 --> 00:58:04,200 since 2015 and what I was Finding was 1388 00:58:09,290 --> 00:58:07,140 weird like just absolutely weird and 1389 00:58:12,410 --> 00:58:09,300 then you know the New York Times article 1390 00:58:15,349 --> 00:58:12,420 drops and it becomes this it becomes the 1391 00:58:18,109 --> 00:58:15,359 face of ufology and uh it introduces you 1392 00:58:20,750 --> 00:58:18,119 to like the future faces of ufology and 1393 00:58:24,710 --> 00:58:20,760 mainly Luella lozondo like and and how 1394 00:58:27,950 --> 00:58:24,720 uh he's largely been associated with uh 1395 00:58:30,650 --> 00:58:27,960 the UFO movement up to now and like if 1396 00:58:34,150 --> 00:58:30,660 you engage with people online 1397 00:58:36,289 --> 00:58:34,160 um it can be toxic because 1398 00:58:38,930 --> 00:58:36,299 it just seems like a lot of people put 1399 00:58:43,250 --> 00:58:38,940 Blind Faith into 1400 00:58:45,770 --> 00:58:43,260 um government agents and I've never it 1401 00:58:49,190 --> 00:58:45,780 it's just to me that that that's not the 1402 00:58:51,770 --> 00:58:49,200 interesting aspect of the the this topic 1403 00:58:55,309 --> 00:58:51,780 and uh one thing that I always go back 1404 00:58:58,970 --> 00:58:55,319 to is is your book Brian because like 1405 00:59:01,309 --> 00:58:58,980 you asked questions that nobody had 1406 00:59:03,589 --> 00:59:01,319 really bothered to ask which is you know 1407 00:59:05,450 --> 00:59:03,599 how did this affect your life how what 1408 00:59:08,690 --> 00:59:05,460 what happened after this how did things 1409 00:59:10,730 --> 00:59:08,700 change for you and to me I think that's 1410 00:59:13,609 --> 00:59:10,740 the most valuable question that's not 1411 00:59:16,010 --> 00:59:13,619 being asked of these of these Witnesses 1412 00:59:18,049 --> 00:59:16,020 and we don't have the ability to go back 1413 00:59:20,510 --> 00:59:18,059 and ask them because many of them are no 1414 00:59:22,609 --> 00:59:20,520 longer with us like uh Claude Edwards is 1415 00:59:26,270 --> 00:59:22,619 no longer with us Dan duggleby no longer 1416 00:59:28,190 --> 00:59:26,280 with us uh I don't know if Paulo saitano 1417 00:59:31,010 --> 00:59:28,200 is still with us but like 1418 00:59:32,750 --> 00:59:31,020 we can't ask those questions and nobody 1419 00:59:36,309 --> 00:59:32,760 really bothered to ask those questions 1420 00:59:39,710 --> 00:59:36,319 so when you get bogged down in 1421 00:59:42,230 --> 00:59:39,720 asking the government to tell us what 1422 00:59:44,150 --> 00:59:42,240 they know when the truth of the matter 1423 00:59:47,809 --> 00:59:44,160 is they probably don't really know that 1424 00:59:49,970 --> 00:59:47,819 much you're cutting out the witness in 1425 00:59:51,829 --> 00:59:49,980 and of itself like the witness is the 1426 00:59:53,870 --> 00:59:51,839 most important aspect of all of this 1427 00:59:56,690 --> 00:59:53,880 it's not even the aliens it's not even 1428 00:59:58,970 --> 00:59:56,700 the UFOs it's the witness where are they 1429 01:00:01,849 --> 00:59:58,980 in their life that they're having these 1430 01:00:04,309 --> 01:00:01,859 encounters and we don't ask that 1431 01:00:08,030 --> 01:00:04,319 question like that's not something that 1432 01:00:08,870 --> 01:00:08,040 you know uh comes up in a mufon like you 1433 01:00:11,630 --> 01:00:08,880 know 1434 01:00:13,670 --> 01:00:11,640 um uh when you're filling out a survey 1435 01:00:16,250 --> 01:00:13,680 it doesn't come up there it doesn't come 1436 01:00:18,829 --> 01:00:16,260 up on you know Peter Davenport's site 1437 01:00:21,230 --> 01:00:18,839 because nobody thinks to ask that 1438 01:00:23,750 --> 01:00:21,240 question because they're so concerned 1439 01:00:25,730 --> 01:00:23,760 with the nuts and bolts of it all and 1440 01:00:28,670 --> 01:00:25,740 and one thing that I've really started 1441 01:00:32,270 --> 01:00:28,680 to gravitate towards is that people see 1442 01:00:34,069 --> 01:00:32,280 these UFOs and these these beings when 1443 01:00:35,569 --> 01:00:34,079 they need to see them in their life and 1444 01:00:38,690 --> 01:00:35,579 it affects them in a way that 1445 01:00:40,910 --> 01:00:38,700 fundamentally changes them and May in 1446 01:00:43,970 --> 01:00:40,920 fact lead to positive changes in their 1447 01:00:46,970 --> 01:00:43,980 lives and and nobody is considering that 1448 01:00:49,490 --> 01:00:46,980 like nobody's uh to me like nobody's 1449 01:00:53,030 --> 01:00:49,500 really asking what did you do after this 1450 01:00:54,950 --> 01:00:53,040 what did you how did your life change in 1451 01:00:57,109 --> 01:00:54,960 the Years following this encounter like 1452 01:00:58,910 --> 01:00:57,119 your book was the first was the first to 1453 01:01:00,950 --> 01:00:58,920 really put that out there and like you 1454 01:01:02,930 --> 01:01:00,960 know you you talk to people who you know 1455 01:01:05,390 --> 01:01:02,940 became pastors who became actors and 1456 01:01:06,410 --> 01:01:05,400 stuff and and that's very important to 1457 01:01:08,990 --> 01:01:06,420 like 1458 01:01:11,930 --> 01:01:09,000 I think it's the most important thing to 1459 01:01:13,190 --> 01:01:11,940 figuring out what these things are they 1460 01:01:17,809 --> 01:01:13,200 are 1461 01:01:19,849 --> 01:01:17,819 things that show up when people need 1462 01:01:23,270 --> 01:01:19,859 them to show up and they change their 1463 01:01:25,910 --> 01:01:23,280 lives and that is the fundamental uh you 1464 01:01:29,089 --> 01:01:25,920 know my fundamental belief in UFOs UFOs 1465 01:01:30,589 --> 01:01:29,099 are changed change for people change for 1466 01:01:33,530 --> 01:01:30,599 um the better sometimes change for the 1467 01:01:36,230 --> 01:01:33,540 worse and I I think that's important and 1468 01:01:38,390 --> 01:01:36,240 the other aspect of this too is how it 1469 01:01:41,210 --> 01:01:38,400 inspires us it inspired us to do this 1470 01:01:45,109 --> 01:01:41,220 comic so like you know all of these 1471 01:01:47,390 --> 01:01:45,119 stories inspired us and to me they 1472 01:01:49,069 --> 01:01:47,400 deserve to have a second life in in many 1473 01:01:52,670 --> 01:01:49,079 ways and now they're getting their 1474 01:01:55,250 --> 01:01:52,680 second life in this in this comic and it 1475 01:01:57,710 --> 01:01:55,260 brings me joy every month to to see them 1476 01:02:00,049 --> 01:01:57,720 when Todd's done and he'll like send me 1477 01:02:02,390 --> 01:02:00,059 a message over on you know Instagram and 1478 01:02:03,530 --> 01:02:02,400 say hey have a look at this uh let's uh 1479 01:02:07,670 --> 01:02:03,540 you know make sure it's good and then 1480 01:02:09,410 --> 01:02:07,680 you know post it and to me that's at the 1481 01:02:11,750 --> 01:02:09,420 at the base level that's what we do is 1482 01:02:14,450 --> 01:02:11,760 like we give a lot of these cases a 1483 01:02:17,530 --> 01:02:14,460 second life and um you know that brings 1484 01:02:20,750 --> 01:02:17,540 me just a lot of joy ways so like to me 1485 01:02:22,250 --> 01:02:20,760 in in the course of our Strange skies 1486 01:02:24,950 --> 01:02:22,260 and doing this project it's 1487 01:02:27,289 --> 01:02:24,960 fundamentally changed how I feel about 1488 01:02:30,650 --> 01:02:27,299 this phenomenon and how I uh you know 1489 01:02:33,230 --> 01:02:30,660 connect to it so you know like 1490 01:02:34,490 --> 01:02:33,240 to me that's that's what UFOs are 1491 01:02:38,030 --> 01:02:34,500 they're changed they're changed for 1492 01:02:40,849 --> 01:02:38,040 people and um yeah that to me that's a 1493 01:02:43,910 --> 01:02:40,859 beautiful beautiful thing 1494 01:02:45,010 --> 01:02:43,920 absolutely man wow get me all misty-eyed 1495 01:02:48,589 --> 01:02:45,020 over here 1496 01:02:50,890 --> 01:02:48,599 seriously that no that was you make so 1497 01:02:54,530 --> 01:02:50,900 many good points and I think you know 1498 01:02:57,109 --> 01:02:54,540 joy joy like even if these things 1499 01:02:58,730 --> 01:02:57,119 affected someone negatively at the end 1500 01:03:01,130 --> 01:02:58,740 of the day you guys have given it a 1501 01:03:03,589 --> 01:03:01,140 second life and you've given it 1502 01:03:06,230 --> 01:03:03,599 um you've given it a sense of magic 1503 01:03:09,770 --> 01:03:06,240 you've given it a sense of wonder and 1504 01:03:12,289 --> 01:03:09,780 every time I see a new you know one of 1505 01:03:16,789 --> 01:03:12,299 your Comics drop it brings me joy every 1506 01:03:22,630

have to 1509 01:03:30,170 --> 01:03:27,480 thank you for doing this at a time where 1510 01:03:32,630 --> 01:03:30,180 I think the field desperately needs this 1511 01:03:35,569 --> 01:03:32,640 they need to feel Wonder again 1512 01:03:38,150 --> 01:03:35,579 um they need to feel uh they need to see 1513 01:03:42,770 --> 01:03:38,160 the history of this topic the extremely 1514 01:03:46,390 --> 01:03:42,780 weird and um and possibly unanswerable 1515 01:03:49,190 --> 01:03:46,400 side of all of this and realize that um 1516 01:03:50,870 --> 01:03:49,200 ufology at least to me I don't know 1517 01:03:53,210 --> 01:03:50,880 about you guys it's not about finding 1518 01:03:55,609 --> 01:03:53,220 the answers like I'm never gonna know 1519 01:03:57,589 --> 01:03:55,619 what I saw in you know over the St 1520 01:04:00,650 --> 01:03:57,599 Lawrence River you're never gonna know 1521 01:04:02,390 --> 01:04:00,660 what you saw Rob up there in Upstate New 1522 01:04:05,270 --> 01:04:02,400 York as well but at the end of the day 1523 01:04:07,190 --> 01:04:05,280 like it's brought us together it's built 1524 01:04:11,569 --> 01:04:07,200 a community of 1525 01:04:14,870 --> 01:04:11,579 um of dreamers I I think to just keep 1526 01:04:16,609 --> 01:04:14,880 dreaming keep inspiring keep aspiring I 1527 01:04:18,650 --> 01:04:16,619 should say and I think that's what a lot 1528 01:04:22,190 --> 01:04:18,660 of this topic does it really does make 1529 01:04:24,710 --> 01:04:22,200 us look forward you know uh while also 1530 01:04:25,849 --> 01:04:24,720 looking back at cases like like what you 1531 01:04:28,609 --> 01:04:25,859 guys have done 1532 01:04:30,890 --> 01:04:28,619 um so no it's amazing I can't wait to 1533 01:04:33,049 --> 01:04:30,900 see what comes next so let's get there 1534 01:04:35,750 --> 01:04:33,059 let's wrap things up 1535 01:04:37,549 --> 01:04:35,760 um to welcome UFO people what's coming 1536 01:04:40,190 --> 01:04:37,559 next with the comment can you tease a 1537 01:04:41,990 --> 01:04:40,200 little anything for us 1538 01:04:43,430 --> 01:04:42,000 well the one thing that I'll go ahead 1539 01:04:45,230 --> 01:04:43,440 and say is that we are going to have 1540 01:04:46,970 --> 01:04:45,240 prints really soon I think this is 1541 01:04:49,130 --> 01:04:46,980 probably the third time we've made this 1542 01:04:52,250 --> 01:04:49,140 promise somewhere but it's it's really 1543 01:04:54,349 --> 01:04:52,260 going to happen I swear I'm I'm in I'm 1544 01:04:56,930 --> 01:04:54,359 in the final stages like I said this is 1545 01:04:58,789 --> 01:04:56,940 a labor of love that we do kind of on 1546 01:05:01,730 --> 01:04:58,799 the side of everything else so I mean 1547 01:05:03,829 --> 01:05:01,740 the more that we can do it I I my end 1548 01:05:05,750 --> 01:05:03,839 goal and I think robs as well is to have 1549 01:05:07,970 --> 01:05:05,760 a full print publication of these to 1550 01:05:10,069 --> 01:05:07,980 have a comic book of a collection of all 1551 01:05:11,809 --> 01:05:10,079 these Pages where you know you can see 1552 01:05:14,030 --> 01:05:11,819 that larger narrative and you can 1553 01:05:15,650 --> 01:05:14,040 identify those kind of patterns and see 1554 01:05:17,690 --> 01:05:15,660 it all kind of play together because I 1555 01:05:19,789 --> 01:05:17,700 think these the way that Rob's been 1556 01:05:22,010 --> 01:05:19,799 curating these stories there is like an 1557 01:05:23,690 --> 01:05:22,020 overall narrative going on that's kind 1558 01:05:25,370 --> 01:05:23,700 of presenting itself that I think is 1559 01:05:27,470 --> 01:05:25,380 really interesting 1560 01:05:29,349 --> 01:05:27,480 but yeah Prince coming soon eventually 1561 01:05:33,109 --> 01:05:29,359 full book 1562 01:05:36,289 --> 01:05:33,119 amazing amazing Rob can you tease any 1563 01:05:39,230 --> 01:05:36,299 upcoming cases you might be covering 1564 01:05:43,370 --> 01:05:39,240 yeah so uh we're definitely doing the 1565 01:05:48,770 --> 01:05:43,380 Stonehenge incident that is one that uh 1566 01:05:51,589 --> 01:05:48,780 I it has it has to be done like uh to me 1567 01:05:54,230 --> 01:05:51,599 that that's a fundamental case that kind 1568 01:05:58,130 --> 01:05:54,240 of affected me when I covered it on our 1569 01:06:00,349 --> 01:05:58,140 Strange Skies so many years ago like uh 1570 01:06:02,750 --> 01:06:00,359 it's a short episode it's like 20 1571 01:06:07,490 --> 01:06:02,760 minutes long but like it's such an 1572 01:06:08,589 --> 01:06:07,500 interesting case because it features 1573 01:06:11,030 --> 01:06:08,599 um 1574 01:06:12,770 --> 01:06:11,040 you know one witness who sees things 1575 01:06:14,690 --> 01:06:12,780 close
