remember uh I was\h\h 15 00:01:47,220 --> 00:01:53,040 one of the individuals that put the microphones\h on you guys for your talk there and uh I was blown\h\h 16 00:01:53,040 --> 00:02:01,920 away I you know what I had heard that you were\h basically the real life X-Files uh I I couldn't\h\h 17 00:02:01,920 --> 00:02:07,500 get enough and I've been following your work ever\h since so um this is a true honor to have you guys\h\h 18 00:02:07,500 --> 00:02:18,060 on here today nice to be here it's been a little\h bit of a uh travel with covet and everything but\h\h 19 00:02:18,060 --> 00:02:24,900 uh we came out on the other side okay we're all\h here we're all here and we've got a lot of stories\h\h 20 00:02:24,900 --> 00:02:31,620 to hear from you guys so I'm I'm excited um

00:02:36,840 --> 00:02:43,500 get the origin story of course um so if you guys\h don't mind maybe Jonathan we'll start with you\h\h 23 00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:51,240 um how you both became Navajo Rangers how did\h that opportunity arise before we even get to the\h\h 24 00:02:51,240 --> 00:02:56,340 uh this special part of those investigations\h what made you want to become a Navajo Ranger\h\h 25 00:02:57,300 --> 00:03:07,320 well uh 1980 I actually was looking for a job\h and uh they said at the chapter house they said\h\h 26 00:03:07,320 --> 00:03:16,320 there's an opening for a Navajo Ranger had no\h idea what it was um I ended up applying the uh\h\h 27 00:03:16,320 --> 00:03:24,900 gave me a ride to Window Rock which is about 130\h miles away from where I live and I walked in and\h\h 28 00:03:24,900 --> 00:03:30,240 the director there asked me one question uh how\h would you feel if somebody threatened your life\h\h 29 00:03:30,900 --> 00:03:38,640 and I told him uh well I'll cut their\h ears off at 200 yards of the 300 Savage\h\h 30 00:03:39,240 --> 00:03:46,380 and they said you're hired next thing I know I was\h in the police academy for six months and so I kind\h\h 31 00:03:46,380 --> 00:03:52,560 of blundered into it and found out I was pretty\h good at it and uh yeah here I am today I retired\h\h 32 00:03:53,460 --> 00:04:01,680 wow that's that's quite a uh an interview if\h you ask me that's pretty interesting Stan how\h\h 33 00:04:01,680 --> 00:04:09,000 about you what what made you want to become an\h Navajo Ranger I think growing up uh uh in a rural\h\h 34 00:04:09,000 --> 00:04:20,880 setting in in Oklahoma uh me and a cousin of mine\h that was a couple years older than me uh at the\h\h 35 00:04:20,880 --> 00:04:29,040 age of like 10 years old nine years old riding\h dirt bikes motocross bikes and playing cops and\h\h 36 00:04:29,040 --> 00:04:40,320 robbers and watching really too much uh Starsky\h and Hutch and SWAT and uh so so I was at the\h\h 37 00:04:40,320 --> 00:04:47,820 University of Arizona when I was contacted by the\h uh director of Parks and Recreation an individual\h\h 38 00:04:47,820 --> 00:04:56,160 named Clarence Gorman and uh he asked uh if I\h would come back and uh attend the police academy\h\h 39 00:04:57,180 --> 00:05:07,500 and uh that's what I chose to do so that's I I\h became a Nava Ranger interesting okay and then you\h\h 40 00:05:07,500 --> 00:05:15,360 know eventually you guys would both meet and start\h working together um however I'd love if you could\h\h 41 00:05:15,360 --> 00:05:22,620 just paint a picture for us now I know the Navajo\h territory that you covered as Rangers was was vast\h\h 42 00:05:23,400 --> 00:05:30,420 um but what exactly is a Navajo Ranger for those\h who may not be aware of what the duties actually\h\h 43 00:05:30,420 --> 00:05:37,560 entail um um you know the the the areas that\h you covered um either one of you if you want\h\h 44 00:05:37,560 --> 00:05:44,640 to cover that what exactly is a Navajo Ranger and\h what areas did you cover okay so a Navajo Ranger\h\h 45 00:05:44,640 --> 00:05:55,320 is a very specialized law enforcement officer\h what he does is he handles uh both renewable\h\h 46 00:05:55,320 --> 00:06:04,980 and non-renewable resource law enforcement so we\h were trained and operated in the areas of Fish\h\h 47 00:06:04,980 --> 00:06:15,420 and Wildlife Forestry Parks and Recreation areas\h we would enforce the laws in those areas minerals\h\h 48 00:06:15,420 --> 00:06:28,560 mines Water Resources we were also tasked with\h handling search and rescue and um and Technical\h\h 49 00:06:28,560 --> 00:06:36,600 rescue situations and then we also did police work\h on the side when there were no police officers\h\h 50 00:06:36,600 --> 00:06:41,280 present or able to respond to something\h or if there was a life or death emergency 51 00:06:43,800 --> 00:06:48,240 interesting all right Stan did you want\h to add anything to that I thought it was\h\h 52 00:06:48,240 --> 00:06:55,800 a pretty good summation well you know what\h we did involving the Paranormal was under a\h\h 53 00:06:55,800 --> 00:07:02,100 section called special projects but within\h that special projects unit there was a lot\h\h 54 00:07:02,100 --> 00:07:09,780 of other responsibilities such as uh special\h weapons and tactics call out SWAT call out\h\h 55 00:07:09,780 --> 00:07:18,840 so he and I did that I worked on a drug\h and gang task force under that section\h\h 56 00:07:20,640 --> 00:07:29,400 um we did dignitary protection we took care\h of some really high profile and sensitive uh\h\h 57 00:07:29,400 --> 00:07:37,440 investigations and and uh assignments and stuff\h like that so it was it wasn't just what people\h\h 58 00:07:37,440 --> 00:07:46,200 perceive as just a paranormal section it wasn't\h it was kind of a broad spectrum of enforcement so\h\h 59 00:07:46,860 --> 00:07:53,580 right I I remember hearing you guys uh elaborate\h you know that the Paranormal was maybe one percent\h\h 60 00:07:53,580 --> 00:07:59,880 of the work that you did out there um obviously\h for audiences like ours of course those are the\h\h 61 00:07:59,880 --> 00:08:07,140 investigations they wanna they wanna hear about\h but um let's let's dive into that I guess that\h\h 62 00:08:07,140 --> 00:08:15,900 one percent um what was it like for both of you\h personally when you first got assigned to these\h\h 63 00:08:15,900 --> 00:08:22,380 cases I mean I can't imagine you know it was\h just another day at the office when when you\h\h 64 00:08:22,380 --> 00:08:29,460 were told that you were now going to be going\h out and investigating ghost scripteds UFOs Skin\h\h 65 00:08:29,460 --> 00:08:33,900 Walkers things like this um Jonathan maybe\h we'll start with you what was it like that\h\h 66 00:08:33,900 --> 00:08:39,120 first day when you learned you'd be working\h on these quote unquote special investigations\h\h 67 00:08:40,140 --> 00:08:47,220 well the uh the director had a uh the chief\h Ranger had a meeting with the entire department\h\h 68 00:08:48,000 --> 00:08:56,700 and basically there had been an investigation and\h if you know these guys that went out there uh two\h\h 69 00:08:56,700 --> 00:09:03,720 rookies uh they were regular Jokers they would\h laugh and joke all day long and just have these\h\h 70 00:09:03,720 --> 00:09:12,480 little private um uh jokes about you know around\h them and they went up to a lady that lost one of\h\h 71 00:09:12,480 --> 00:09:19,620 her sheep to a Bigfoot and of course they were\h laughing joking you know horsing around and she\h\h 72 00:09:19,620 --> 00:09:24,540 took an offense to that and thought they were\h laughing at her and chewed out her our chief\h\h 73 00:09:24,540 --> 00:09:31,560 Ranger so he called everyone in basically told\h us that these cases were would be investigated\h\h 74 00:09:31,560 --> 00:09:38,520 professionally and there would be reports\h written turned to me and Stan and I like to\h\h 75 00:09:38,520 --> 00:09:45,480 tell everybody that we were voluntold we didn't\h request it we didn't raise our hands or anything\h\h 76 00:09:46,800 --> 00:09:56,340 and suddenly we were told that we would be getting\h the major cases involving uh paranormal stuff and\h\h 77 00:09:56,340 --> 00:10:02,760 uh we just looked at each other and like\h you know wow yeah I didn't see that coming\h\h 78 00:10:03,780 --> 00:10:07,740 Stan what was it like for you\h personally when you learned that\h\h 79 00:10:07,740 --> 00:10:12,360 you now would be investigating these\h quote unquote special paranormal cases 80 00:10:14,400 --> 00:10:24,780 um one of the things was is that um up until the\h point that we we were assigned to attend this uh\h\h 81 00:10:24,780 --> 00:10:34,800 department-wide meeting it was just a normal day\h it was just an everyday um a regular day and uh\h\h 82 00:10:34,800 --> 00:10:44,280 but we did have a department-wide staff meeting\h we were called into that meeting and um so heading\h\h 83 00:10:44,280 --> 00:10:50,040 up that special projects unit the one of the\h main reasons we were a part of that was that\h\h 84 00:10:51,540 --> 00:11:00,000 I think the chief Ranger at that time we worked\h really close with him we were probably uh the the\h\h 85 00:11:00,000 --> 00:11:11,940 closest Personnel working directly with the chief\h and we had developed a this relationship where he\h\h 86 00:11:11,940 --> 00:11:24,360 knew he could give me and John uh assignments and\h regardless of how how technical they were or how\h\h 87 00:11:26,040 --> 00:11:35,340 um how difficult they might be that he could rely\h on me and John to handle it regardless and that\h\h 88 00:11:35,340 --> 00:11:44,220 John and I think I think with him had developed\h a reputation of dependability and reliability and\h\h 89 00:11:44,220 --> 00:11:54,060 professionalism so um so when we got assigned uh\h it wasn't like John and I were over there raising\h\h 90 00:11:54,060 --> 00:12:00,240 our hands saying oh we want to we want to run this\h whatever that that wasn't the case it was simply\h\h 91 00:12:00,240 --> 00:12:07,080 that Chief had this assignment and he looked at us\h too and said you two are the ones that are going\h\h 92 00:12:07,080 --> 00:12:16,860 to manage uh these assignments or these cases\h investigations so hahaha at first you know it\h\h 93 00:12:16,860 --> 00:12:26,520 was kind of like all of the other assignments we\h had received it's it's yes sir and and uh you did\h\h 94 00:12:26,520 --> 00:12:34,500 what you were told you know and uh but I don't\h think that we you know yes John and I had had\h\h 95 00:12:35,160 --> 00:12:43,080 uh uh all our own personal experiences with what\h would be termed as Supernatural or paranormal\h\h 96 00:12:43,680 --> 00:12:50,580 even prior to those assignments and even actually\h there was there was cases we did that prior to\h\h 97 00:12:50,580 --> 00:12:57,600 that that would have fallen under what would\h be termed as um paranormal or Supernatural but\h\h 98 00:12:58,560 --> 00:13:08,160 um so I think that kind of it facilitated\h us to get right into that and get busy\h\h 99 00:13:08,160 --> 00:13:13,140 investigating these things and stuff\h so right for me it's just one of those\h\h 100 00:13:13,140 --> 00:13:18,780 those another assignment you know that we're\h given and so we were gonna do it regardless of 101 00:13:20,940 --> 00:13:26,880 the nature of what it was right that was\h actually going to be one of my questions for\h\h 102 00:13:26,880 --> 00:13:35,580 you guys was were there ever instances where uh\h you know you went into a case to investigate and\h\h 103 00:13:35,580 --> 00:13:43,320 um that you then it turned into a paranormal\h case like it it wasn't you weren't sent out\h\h 104 00:13:43,320 --> 00:13:48,840 to investigate someone who had a Bigfoot sighting\h but um you know boom all of a sudden you're in the\h\h 105 00:13:48,840 --> 00:13:54,720 middle of you know a quote-unquote conventional\h investigation of something else and I don't know\h\h 106 00:13:54,720 --> 00:14:01,860 a UFO zipped by or or a you know a paranormal\h event occurred did that ever happen to you guys\h\h 107 00:14:03,120 --> 00:14:12,960 oh and things like that would happen all the time\h um there there are many many cases uh where their\h\h 108 00:14:12,960 --> 00:14:19,380 paranormal would kind of peek at you and you'd\h understand that hey there's there's something\h\h 109 00:14:19,380 --> 00:14:26,640 more going on here and um for the most part you\h just kind of ignored it or let it be on the side\h\h 110 00:14:26,640 --> 00:14:37,620 did your report uh try to maintain as many factual\h uh stuff as you could within the report and it was\h\h 111 00:14:37,620 --> 00:14:47,640 just kind of uh you know it was understood it was\h there hmm interesting so I guess let's start from\h\h 112 00:14:47,640 --> 00:14:55,020 the beginning when these cases were assigned\h to you guys do you remember the very first\h\h 113 00:14:55,680 --> 00:15:00,540 quote unquote paranormal case that you\h were you were assigned to any memories\h\h 114 00:15:00,540 --> 00:15:08,580 of what that was and and how it kind of LED\h you down the path we got a uh case initially\h\h 115 00:15:09,900 --> 00:15:14,880 um what had happened was that this is one of\h the ones that showed up on the Netflix series\h\h 116 00:15:15,480 --> 00:15:24,000 we had at least 30 people have sightings\h of Bigfoot uh right around that Bloomfield\h\h 117 00:15:24,000 --> 00:15:34,800 between Bloomfield and Shiprock along the San Juan\h River and um they they were frightened and the\h\h 118 00:15:34,800 --> 00:15:43,020 Community had gone to the local police department\h and says hey you know we got all these sightings\h\h 119 00:15:43,020 --> 00:15:50,820 of this Bigfoot and the lieutenant came out and in\h front of everybody just laughed at them and went\h\h 120 00:15:50,820 --> 00:15:59,160 I wonder how much these people have had to drink\h and so they basically turned their backs on the\h\h 121 00:15:59,160 --> 00:16:04,980 police and said you know we don't we want nothing\h to do with you guys and they contacted the Rangers\h\h 122 00:16:05,520 --> 00:16:14,520 uh we sent a six-man crew up there and spent three\h days and two nights uh thoroughly investigating\h\h 123 00:16:14,520 --> 00:16:22,500 the case getting statements from people along\h the river and uh collecting uh hair evidence\h\h 124 00:16:22,500 --> 00:16:28,140 foot track evidence and things like that and\h did determine that there was something going on 125 00:16:30,180 --> 00:16:36,120 interesting Stan do you have anything to add\h to that that first Bigfoot investigation you\h\h 126 00:16:36,120 --> 00:16:42,840 guys went on and uh you know what did was this\h something that you you were familiar with before\h\h 127 00:16:42,840 --> 00:16:48,720 getting involved and um yeah how did you come out\h on the other side thinking about Bigfoot after\h\h 128 00:16:48,720 --> 00:16:54,240 that that assignment that you're talking about\h that he's referring to up along the San Juan River\h\h 129 00:16:55,620 --> 00:17:07,020 it really was the first where we're involving\h a number of Rangers uh assigned uh to an\h\h 130 00:17:07,020 --> 00:17:15,300 actual investigation that there was obviously\h within that realm of paranormal investigation\h\h 131 00:17:16,560 --> 00:17:27,540 um I don't think I actually witnessed uh\h what people refer to as a Bigfoot until\h\h 132 00:17:28,440 --> 00:17:36,960 later on in some other investigations where I\h actually witnessed um what it is people refer\h\h 133 00:17:36,960 --> 00:17:46,620 to as a Bigfoot twice I'm having an experience\h where I've seen uh this either entity or this\h\h 134 00:17:47,160 --> 00:17:55,620 you know I'd whether it's a creature or\h uh but anyway so prior to that you know\h\h 135 00:17:56,160 --> 00:18:03,720 um to that particular assignment I really didn't\h have a whole lot of experience in that but but\h\h 136 00:18:03,720 --> 00:18:10,800 um it did involve an entire team and\h it involved the planning uh for that\h\h 137 00:18:10,800 --> 00:18:22,860 assignment and the equipment that would be\h needed and uh um really uh opened my eyes to\h\h 138 00:18:24,240 --> 00:18:35,100 to [Music] how really how involved the\h entire community in that area was actually\h\h 139 00:18:36,240 --> 00:18:46,020 having witnessed this thing that people referred\h to as Bigfoot so this is primarily a UFO podcast\h\h 140 00:18:47,160 --> 00:18:51,480 um so I know our listeners are going to\h want to hear from you guys about that\h\h 141 00:18:52,200 --> 00:18:59,160 um so John let's start with you what is your most\h memorable I guess investigation that involved the\h\h 142 00:18:59,160 --> 00:19:07,800 mysteries in our skies well this again would\h be one of our one of our cases we refer to it\h\h 143 00:19:07,800 --> 00:19:17,820 as the old man case in this incidence uh an\h elderly man was home by himself uh this is\h\h 144 00:19:17,820 --> 00:19:24,780 the short version uh there's other versions of\h it that go into much more detail but uh we had\h\h 145 00:19:25,320 --> 00:19:32,880 this situation where this old man his his wife\h and daughter had gone to to Phoenix and so he\h\h 146 00:19:32,880 --> 00:19:40,080 was home by himself it's uh midnight or one\h in the morning and he sees a light and it\h\h 147 00:19:40,080 --> 00:19:46,260 looks like to him it looked like a car coming\h up the road uh it turned out that it was this\h\h 148 00:19:46,260 --> 00:19:51,480 craft that was flying uh circled his house\h and then landed up on the ridge behind him\h\h 149 00:19:52,980 --> 00:19:59,880 um he sees something come out of the crap out of\h the bottom and go down to a house maybe a half\h\h 150 00:19:59,880 --> 00:20:09,360 mile away go back up to the craft and then come\h back toward his house his dog starts barking uh\h\h 151 00:20:09,360 --> 00:20:17,700 it's it's a little blue heeler pup and uh you\h know it goes running out they're barking and he\h\h 152 00:20:17,700 --> 00:20:23,640 hears it you know Yelp and it comes running back\h to the house and curls up by the front doorstep\h\h 153 00:20:23,640 --> 00:20:31,440 and just lays there uh doesn't move so now he's\h getting nervous and he goes inside he's looking\h\h 154 00:20:31,440 --> 00:20:39,300 out the window on the Seas what could be described\h as a gray alien uh four of them that have these\h\h 155 00:20:39,300 --> 00:20:46,320 little flashlights in their hands he calls it\h flashlight but it has a collimated beam about\h\h 156 00:20:46,320 --> 00:20:56,700 an inch in diameter and different color beams\h of light red blue uh yellow and uh and green\h\h 157 00:20:57,480 --> 00:21:03,180 and they're shining it around looking like\h they're looking for something uh out around\h\h 158 00:21:03,180 --> 00:21:09,240 his house he has all these solar lights and they\h they seem to be very fascinated by these lights\h\h 159 00:21:09,900 --> 00:21:16,560 and as they approached them and gather around\h the light the light slowly dims and goes out\h\h 160 00:21:18,300 --> 00:21:23,580 um they back up they stand up again and\h back up and the light comes back on again\h\h 161 00:21:23,580 --> 00:21:29,340 and they would lean in again and the light\h would go out this happened several times\h\h 162 00:21:30,780 --> 00:21:40,260 um finally he decides he's in Navajo there's\h no word for alien so he's saying what are these\h\h 163 00:21:40,260 --> 00:21:48,180 little children doing around my house he says they\h they were wearing these uh white skin tight suits\h\h 164 00:21:49,200 --> 00:21:56,100 either white or light gray and so he goes out\h to confront them he says they had big heads and\h\h 165 00:21:56,100 --> 00:22:03,540 they had black eyes and as he turns the corner\h around the back side of the house he tripped on\h\h 166 00:22:03,540 --> 00:22:11,580 the step and fell broke his flashlight and as he\h looked up these things were hightailing it away 167 00:22:12,420 --> 00:22:20,460 in later conversations he describes\h them as as being startled and having\h\h 168 00:22:20,460 --> 00:22:30,240 their hands up and waving them and um\h and then you know getting away uh so\h\h 169 00:22:31,020 --> 00:22:38,580 they get back to the ship they take off\h and uh he he doesn't know what the result\h\h 170 00:22:38,580 --> 00:22:45,540 of that was later on we found out a couple\h of weeks later that that little dog had died\h\h 171 00:22:46,260 --> 00:22:51,780 we didn't know about it at the time otherwise\h we could have had it in a crop seed and we did\h\h 172 00:22:51,780 --> 00:22:58,920 a full investigation there with a federal court\h interpreter doing simultaneous translation for us\h\h 173 00:22:59,700 --> 00:23:05,340 that's a really interesting case a close\h encounter of the Third Kind I would say\h\h 174 00:23:06,060 --> 00:23:11,040 um and very dramatic if you ask me and\h what I appreciate is you know you guys\h\h 175 00:23:11,040 --> 00:23:17,160 aren't just out there taking witness testimony\h you're actually trying to find evidence find\h\h 176 00:23:17,160 --> 00:23:22,080 proof of these things which was you know\h shown in the Unsolved Mysteries episode\h\h 177 00:23:23,340 --> 00:23:30,420 um of testing a car where a UFO hovered above it\h and things like that so um I I found that really\h\h 178 00:23:30,420 --> 00:23:38,520 interesting Stan how about in you in terms of uh\h UFO investigations anything really memorable stick\h\h 179 00:23:38,520 --> 00:23:46,920 out to you about um UFO activity over the Navajo\h territory one of the UFO experiences that John\h\h 180 00:23:46,920 --> 00:23:54,060 and I had it hadn't started out as an actual\h paranormal related case it was a drowning uh\h\h 181 00:23:54,060 --> 00:24:01,140 an individual had drowned uh somewhere in the San\h Juan River and John and I had placed a boat in in\h\h 182 00:24:01,140 --> 00:24:11,220 the water at Lake Powell and began traversing to\h the to the east along in the San Juan River and\h\h 183 00:24:11,220 --> 00:24:20,160 um so we got so far and it was getting late in\h the day uh we came to a debris field where we\h\h 184 00:24:20,160 --> 00:24:27,960 couldn't go any further uh for fear of damaging\h the prop on the boat and so we just pulled off we\h\h 185 00:24:27,960 --> 00:24:36,000 decided we would we would camp for the the rest\h of the day and evening and uh so we set up camp\h\h 186 00:24:36,600 --> 00:24:48,960 and that night uh uh really clear sky I we we\h were laying on our cots and I noticed an object\h\h 187 00:24:49,680 --> 00:24:54,060 uh that was coming from the West\h headed in the East Direction\h\h 188 00:24:55,260 --> 00:25:01,980 and this particular object was It was kind of\h amber in color and it was a little bit bigger\h\h 189 00:25:01,980 --> 00:25:11,760 than what you normally see with common satellites\h and uh the the really unusual thing about this\h\h 190 00:25:11,760 --> 00:25:20,640 particular object was that it was making a zigzag\h pattern as it moved to the East and uh so I got\h\h 191 00:25:20,640 --> 00:25:28,080 John's attention and we began watching it as it\h got almost right directly above us at about the\h\h 192 00:25:28,080 --> 00:25:36,600 12 o'clock position we noticed following in\h line behind it was to um two military craft\h\h 193 00:25:37,260 --> 00:25:43,860 uh and it turned out John was able to\h identify these as F-16 and he advised that\h\h 194 00:25:43,860 --> 00:25:49,920 they're you know they had their afterburners\h on which meant that they were pursuing this\h\h 195 00:25:51,120 --> 00:26:05,160 um in an accelerated way so uh but uh a little\h bit a little bit later as we were watching this uh\h\h 196 00:26:05,760 --> 00:26:11,280 all of a sudden this zigzagging\h object accelerated to the east\h\h 197 00:26:12,120 --> 00:26:21,660 and uh at a blinding speed I mean we were able to\h see the edge of the Horizon uh where from where\h\h 198 00:26:21,660 --> 00:26:28,560 we were at and uh this object went almost from\h the 12 known position all the way to the horizon\h\h 199 00:26:30,300 --> 00:26:36,180 you know within like a second and a half it\h was gone and it was we watched it disappear\h\h 200 00:26:37,020 --> 00:26:44,520 it had left the two F-16 Fighters you\h know side by side uh trailing behind this\h\h 201 00:26:45,720 --> 00:26:54,840 kind of like a a child on a tricycle because\h this thing the the capability and technology\h\h 202 00:26:54,840 --> 00:27:05,040 that would have been involved in this for\h this object to accelerate to we guesstimate\h\h 203 00:27:05,580 --> 00:27:14,040 somewhere in the name of in the area of like 10\h 000 miles an hour and it was just unbelievable and\h\h 204 00:27:15,660 --> 00:27:24,240 it left me and John in awe watching this thing\h what just played out right in front of us and\h\h 205 00:27:24,240 --> 00:27:34,080 um so um again like you had said earlier you\h know we set out on an investigation that ended up\h\h 206 00:27:35,100 --> 00:27:45,180 ended up being something of uh paranormal or or\h UFO nature that you know we didn't we we there\h\h 207 00:27:45,180 --> 00:27:49,980 was no expectation for that it just happened right\h there in front of us and we were left in awe so\h\h 208 00:27:51,060 --> 00:28:01,020 wow yeah well preparedness is you know a word\h that I assume comes up a lot before you go into an\h\h 209 00:28:01,020 --> 00:28:07,920 investigation of any kind and I'd love to touch on\h that with you guys before we move to uh some some\h\h 210 00:28:07,920 --> 00:28:17,700 listener questions here um how do you mentally\h physically uh I I guess even emotionally prepare\h\h 211 00:28:17,700 --> 00:28:24,360 to go into an investigation where you have no idea\h what's going to happen whether it's paranormal or\h\h 212 00:28:24,360 --> 00:28:33,420 not um do do you both have any personal routines\h or or practices or anything to prepare you\h\h 213 00:28:33,420 --> 00:28:40,320 for for these types of Investigations\h John let's start with you well for me um\h\h 214 00:28:41,820 --> 00:28:50,160 there's you can have preconceived ideas a great\h man once said that can you look at a situation\h\h 215 00:28:50,160 --> 00:29:00,060 without naming it naming it making it a word\h causes fear so you don't name it uh you you go\h\h 216 00:29:00,060 --> 00:29:09,900 in without a preconceived idea of what you're\h going to see or experience and you go in with\h\h 217 00:29:09,900 --> 00:29:18,180 the idea that you're going to do the job in in\h my work I was a licensed EMT uh as a uniformed\h\h 218 00:29:18,180 --> 00:29:27,360 officer and I would see horrific injuries and\h amputations and people dead and actually dying\h\h 219 00:29:27,900 --> 00:29:38,520 and um I found out that if you stop and let\h that overtake you um you're no good to anybody\h\h 220 00:29:39,180 --> 00:29:47,400 and so you just have to do the job and get to\h the point where um you're going to be their\h\h 221 00:29:47,400 --> 00:29:56,100 best hope of survival and in the Paranormal cases\h you do something similar you don't show that fear\h\h 222 00:29:57,300 --> 00:30:02,220 um you know like like you see on TV today you\h see these guys you know oh my God oh my God\h\h 223 00:30:02,220 --> 00:30:07,440 they start they start running\h around and the Panic overtakes them\h\h 224 00:30:07,440 --> 00:30:14,820 we never did that and you know we just went\h into it and said whatever happens will happen\h\h 225 00:30:15,780 --> 00:30:23,580 I know Stan has had a personal experience with\h a skinwalker and I know you've actually been to\h\h 226 00:30:23,580 --> 00:30:31,800 Skinwalker Ranch so I'd love to get your opinion\h on on that whole aspect of a lot of this phenomena\h\h 227 00:30:32,580 --> 00:30:39,840 um is this is this something you've pursued in\h your own investigations and uh what do you make of\h\h 228 00:30:39,840 --> 00:30:47,280 these areas I guess these condensed areas of high\h strangeness whether it's skin walker ranch or or\h\h 229 00:30:47,280 --> 00:30:53,460 the areas that you would stand investigated what\h do you make of the entire Skinwalker uh phenomenon\h\h 230 00:30:54,840 --> 00:31:03,180 well the skinwalker phenomenon is basically\h worldwide you have uh incidences of shape\h\h 231 00:31:03,180 --> 00:31:11,520 changers in Australia and Africa in Europe\h and Indonesia uh you know just all over the\h\h 232 00:31:11,520 --> 00:31:21,420 whole world other Indian tribes have similar\h versions and interestingly enough a lot of\h\h 233 00:31:21,420 --> 00:31:29,100 them the information is is uh very consistent\h uh you know telling you that you shouldn't be\h\h 234 00:31:29,100 --> 00:31:35,820 out in the dark whistling because it\h attracts these things they show up as\h\h 235 00:31:37,020 --> 00:31:46,920 like the windigo uh The Rake they can show up\h as as different types of of creatures and uh\h\h 236 00:31:46,920 --> 00:31:55,200 but they're all very similar in that a person\h can shape change in our discussions of this and\h\h 237 00:31:55,200 --> 00:32:01,800 and talking about it we've actually had military\h people show up with clipboards taking notes and so\h\h 238 00:32:01,800 --> 00:32:11,280 now we give them a shout out because Indian tribes\h are not very trusting in the military um but we we\h\h 239 00:32:12,240 --> 00:32:20,340 speculate that the government is interested in\h this idea because uh what if you had a soldier who\h\h 240 00:32:20,340 --> 00:32:29,280 could shape change into an animal and go Behind\h Enemy Lines and create Havoc back there the one\h\h 241 00:32:29,280 --> 00:32:35,520 thing that I would caution people about is that\h in the case of and I'm only speaking about the\h\h 242 00:32:35,520 --> 00:32:43,860 Navajo skinwalker they can actually be dangerous\h they're not an avatar they are not a spirit form\h\h 243 00:32:43,860 --> 00:32:52,740 of something sent out to do the bidding they\h are real people that have uh basically learned\h\h 244 00:32:52,740 --> 00:33:00,960 how to do this and they can poison you and they\h can injure you rather severely or make you so\h\h 245 00:33:00,960 --> 00:33:07,020 sick that you won't be able to function for\h a year and a half as in one case that we had\h\h 246 00:33:07,680 --> 00:33:15,240 so um we we caution people and even film Crews\h that come out that if they want to go look for\h\h 247 00:33:15,240 --> 00:33:25,140 skin lockers uh we're done uh we're gonna call it\h and uh because we we have seen what they can do\h\h 248 00:33:25,140 --> 00:33:31,080 uh they can be killed also that's one\h thing that we did find out uh over a\h\h 249 00:33:31,080 --> 00:33:36,720 period of time and I've known it for a long\h time that uh people have actually shot them\h\h 250 00:33:37,860 --> 00:33:46,260 um and and they some of them have died and uh\h in fact in 1977 one was killed in uh chin Lee\h\h 251 00:33:46,980 --> 00:33:53,700 and uh you know somebody knocked on the door\h the guy opened it up and got an accent ahead\h\h 252 00:33:54,240 --> 00:34:01,440 uh the FBI arrested two individuals and they said\h well you know in trial they said if it wasn't us\h\h 253 00:34:01,440 --> 00:34:09,420 you know we were designated by the community to\h go do this and um you know we did our job if it\h\h 254 00:34:09,420 --> 00:34:17,100 wasn't us it would have been somebody else and uh\h they were actually acquitted in federal court of\h\h 255 00:34:17,100 --> 00:34:30,000 of homicide wow that's crazy I I oh that one left\h me speechless um wow well I mean what do you think\h\h 256 00:34:30,540 --> 00:34:37,800 John actually being on Skinwalker Ranch I mean\h you know a lot of people are very critical of the\h\h 257 00:34:37,800 --> 00:34:45,660 work being done there uh you know they're being\h told not to dig and um you know to not upset\h\h 258 00:34:45,660 --> 00:34:54,060 the the the land there to do their scientific\h investigations and whatnot um having been there\h\h 259 00:34:54,060 --> 00:35:00,720 having sort of been at the center of all of that\h um what do you make of Skinwalker Ranch and do\h\h 260 00:35:00,720 --> 00:35:05,880 you do you think they should continue to try to\h investigate there and figure out what's going on 261 00:35:09,900 --> 00:35:16,680 the summer in the skies podcast is

--> 00:35:58,140 well there's definitely something going on\h there there is high strangeness uh there is\h\h 267 00:35:58,140 --> 00:36:07,920 an energy source that's showed itself there's\h a frequency showing uh 1.6 gigahertz and it's\h\h 268 00:36:07,920 --> 00:36:15,360 my understanding that this frequency is only\h used by NASA for communication with spacecraft\h\h 269 00:36:15,960 --> 00:36:23,760 that we launch uh so there's there's a\h lot going on uh UFOs show up over there\h\h 270 00:36:24,480 --> 00:36:33,840 um uh Cryptids show up uh Bigfoot shows up you\h know and we have areas uh on our reservation here\h\h 271 00:36:33,840 --> 00:36:41,940 that are very very similar that people avoid\h and uh you know stay away from there's areas\h\h 272 00:36:41,940 --> 00:36:49,680 down in Sedona that they call them vortexes\h but they're very similar in energy profiles\h\h 273 00:36:50,280 --> 00:36:56,460 and so we've seen a lot of the same things up\h here we just don't advertise it or talk about it\h\h 274 00:36:56,460 --> 00:37:04,440 uh but there are a lot of them dual C is another\h one uh on the hickorya reservation that has a lot\h\h 275 00:37:04,440 --> 00:37:12,600 of strangeness so uh we think that there's\h these uh nodules so to speak uh all around\h\h 276 00:37:12,600 --> 00:37:21,420 the United States of places that are probably\h either inaccessible or avoided uh by a lot of\h\h 277 00:37:21,420 --> 00:37:30,000 people because of these strange things that go on\h uh Skinwalker Ranch the nids team that was there\h\h 278 00:37:30,000 --> 00:37:38,520 uh prior under uh Bob Bigelow the information that\h they gathered is still considered classified even\h\h 279 00:37:38,520 --> 00:37:46,080 today and so the team that's up there now had to\h start you know all over from from the ground up\h\h 280 00:37:46,620 --> 00:37:55,320 and they were told by when the ranch was sold to\h them not to dig because they found out that if\h\h 281 00:37:55,320 --> 00:38:03,360 you started digging things would happen it would\h provoke a response and we've they've seen that up\h\h 282 00:38:03,360 --> 00:38:10,860 at Skinwalker Ranch with Thomas being injured and\h having to go to the hospital we saw Travis Taylor\h\h 283 00:38:10,860 --> 00:38:17,160 get injured when he stuck his head over a hole\h and got his face irradiated with the radiation\h\h 284 00:38:17,880 --> 00:38:28,680 so um there's there's lots of uh danger there\h for me doesn't really bother me I go through\h\h 285 00:38:28,680 --> 00:38:38,340 my protection regimen uh before going there\h and you know every day afterwards just to\h\h 286 00:38:38,340 --> 00:38:46,080 keep myself protected and I've been on the ranch\h but I haven't been injured and uh you know I'm\h\h 287 00:38:46,080 --> 00:38:55,920 I'm happy with that yeah fingers fingers crossed\h it stays that way um well in terms of all of the\h\h 288 00:38:55,920 --> 00:39:01,620 cases John you've looked at throughout the years\h in in relation to you the Paranormal Supernatural\h\h 289 00:39:01,620 --> 00:39:09,960 youthological even um do you have a favorite\h case or one that you continue to chase until\h\h 290 00:39:09,960 --> 00:39:17,460 today or most memorable all wrapped into one um is\h there any case that truly personifies that for you\h\h 291 00:39:18,300 --> 00:39:25,620 well there is a case uh and it's it's a little\h bit out of the way but uh I'll I'll go ahead and\h\h 292 00:39:25,620 --> 00:39:33,180 tell it because there's a point to it okay um\h there was a lady that contacted our department\h\h 293 00:39:33,900 --> 00:39:41,880 and uh she said that uh well she she's\h what we classify in law enforcement as EDP\h\h 294 00:39:42,600 --> 00:39:50,580 uh which is an emotionally disturbed person\h so they're having some some issues mentally\h\h 295 00:39:51,360 --> 00:40:01,920 and she had contacted the city police the state\h police the county uh the Navajo police everybody\h\h 296 00:40:01,920 --> 00:40:07,200 told her that you know we don't handle that\h or you know and what she was saying was that\h\h 297 00:40:07,200 --> 00:40:13,560 Skin Walkers were coming around our house\h and trying to drive her off her land so she\h\h 298 00:40:13,560 --> 00:40:18,540 contacted our department and me and Stan says\h okay we'll we'll go out there and meet with her 299 00:40:20,580 --> 00:40:26,820 she had inherited this land from her mother who\h had passed away and had spent all her life in in\h\h 300 00:40:26,820 --> 00:40:38,820 different states she was taking a whole regimen\h of uh drugs and um so we started looking at this\h\h 301 00:40:38,820 --> 00:40:44,880 and she showed us some little tiny bundles of\h feathers and and leather that had been left\h\h 302 00:40:44,880 --> 00:40:50,580 out you know near her house and said that things\h were coming around scratching at the wood you know\h\h 303 00:40:50,580 --> 00:41:00,060 at the side of the house and things like that\h um we found tracks and we started to track it\h\h 304 00:41:00,840 --> 00:41:06,000 in tracking these tracks and both\h me and Stan are very good trackers\h\h 305 00:41:06,540 --> 00:41:18,180 we found at least six individuals that had come\h up from a trail behind her house and um they had\h\h 306 00:41:19,620 --> 00:41:25,440 they they you could see where they stood around\h in a little circle and talked with each other\h\h 307 00:41:25,980 --> 00:41:34,200 what we determined was that these were local Town\h drunks that had she had a little Hogan that had no\h\h 308 00:41:34,200 --> 00:41:42,660 windows and no door and they were using this as a\h crash pad for themselves and when she came to take\h\h 309 00:41:42,660 --> 00:41:50,760 over the property again started living there they\h tried to drive her out by imitating a skinwalker\h\h 310 00:41:50,760 --> 00:41:59,460 activity and she was genuinely frightened so\h as a result of that we told her these are not\h\h 311 00:41:59,460 --> 00:42:07,620 skinwalkers these are local drunks they're trying\h to chase you away from your land and um you know\h\h 312 00:42:07,620 --> 00:42:13,020 so it's not definitely not Skinwalker activity\h although they tried to make it look like it\h\h 313 00:42:14,580 --> 00:42:17,880 um we didn't hear anything more\h she was she was very thankful\h\h 314 00:42:19,020 --> 00:42:26,280 um a month later uh our dispatcher got a\h call and this lady is on the line again\h\h 315 00:42:27,120 --> 00:42:32,940 she is crying on the phone and she\h said thank you thank you thank you\h\h 316 00:42:34,320 --> 00:42:40,920 um I've gotten my house fixed up and I'm\h living there and I have no more issues going on\h\h 317 00:42:41,460 --> 00:42:46,860 and I just wanted to call you and thank\h you for you know for listening to me\h\h 318 00:42:47,760 --> 00:42:55,440 and what me and Stan have found out is that\h it's about helping people that maybe nobody\h\h 319 00:42:55,440 --> 00:43:03,060 else wants to to take a look at this issue we had\h an old grandma up in Dulce when we spoke up there\h\h 320 00:43:03,060 --> 00:43:11,520 come up to us and she had tears you know in her\h eyes and she was explaining that as a little girl\h\h 321 00:43:12,420 --> 00:43:20,400 she had uh orbs and UFOs come around her\h and uh she had never told anybody in the\h\h 322 00:43:20,400 --> 00:43:28,680 family uh the the kids the grandkids the great\h grandkids all had their jaws down on the floor\h\h 323 00:43:28,680 --> 00:43:35,220 because nobody had ever heard her talk about\h this and she thanked us for for talking about\h\h 324 00:43:35,220 --> 00:43:42,420 these subjects and bringing it out uh because it\h actually helped her tell her story to her family\h\h 325 00:43:43,140 --> 00:43:51,480 uh so it's really all about uh if we can to try\h to help people let's let's wrap up actually I've\h\h 326 00:43:51,480 --> 00:43:58,260 got um two listener questions for you um if you\h don't mind um we have our first one here from\h\h 327 00:43:58,260 --> 00:44:04,800 metal matte he's one of our patreon subscribers\h and he wants to know do you and Stan have any\h\h 328 00:44:04,800 --> 00:44:12,720 plans of writing a book about your experiences\h uh yeah quick answer Stan is currently working\h\h 329 00:44:12,720 --> 00:44:20,280 on his book and has a publisher and an agent and\h everything else my book is about one-third away\h\h 330 00:44:20,280 --> 00:44:29,340 uh through uh but it's 47 chapters so there's\h a lot to write and uh it's it's an uphill thing\h\h 331 00:44:29,880 --> 00:44:38,640 I know the vice president uh Harper Collins\h publishing had contacted John uh and he showed\h\h 332 00:44:38,640 --> 00:44:47,760 that he was excited and very interested in\h publishing uh both John and my books and uh\h\h 333 00:44:47,760 --> 00:44:55,080 so when John let me know that I did jump on that\h John and I had already been writing uh for to put\h\h 334 00:44:55,080 --> 00:45:03,600 together individual books going way back to when\h we were working as Rangers I think I think once we\h\h 335 00:45:04,500 --> 00:45:12,720 we had really got into doing these kind of\h Investigations that uh it was interesting to us\h\h 336 00:45:12,720 --> 00:45:20,100 I mean and it still is today where we a big part\h of what we do in the investigation is the fact\h\h 337 00:45:20,100 --> 00:45:29,520 that we're curious there's a curiosity and and uh\h wanting to learn more about the unknown and uh so\h\h 338 00:45:30,540 --> 00:45:38,640 when that opportunity presented itself um for me\h you know after John let me know and I jump right\h\h 339 00:45:38,640 --> 00:45:47,580 on it and and uh things that seem to roll really\h quickly with it and so yeah there's there's a\h\h 340 00:45:48,120 --> 00:45:59,460 we both will be uh working to get our books out\h um so awesome I'm looking forward to that for sure\h\h 341 00:46:00,480 --> 00:46:07,800 um well I guess you know kind of playing off of\h that uh Lisette over on YouTube wants to know uh\h\h 342 00:46:07,800 --> 00:46:13,200 were there any cases that you guys covered\h on Unsolved Mysteries that didn't actually\h\h 343 00:46:13,200 --> 00:46:19,740 make it onto the show that you wish had or any\h cases that you wish they had actually covered\h\h 344 00:46:20,760 --> 00:46:25,200 um you know I mean what we got on the show was\h incredible but any cases you really wish they\h\h 345 00:46:25,200 --> 00:46:31,140 had gone after or or possibly got left on\h the uh the editing floors as they call it 346 00:46:33,240 --> 00:46:38,400 um I don't think in what we filmed there was\h anything that was left on The Cutting Room floor\h\h 347 00:46:39,660 --> 00:46:46,080 um I think everything that we set out and we\h actually filmed was included the the challenge\h\h 348 00:46:46,080 --> 00:46:54,900 is that uh for a given episode there's only\h so much room to be able to fit things in\h\h 349 00:46:55,680 --> 00:47:06,900 and uh but me and John you know we've discussed\h this among ourselves in length there's so many\h\h 350 00:47:08,340 --> 00:47:18,240 uh cases and and events and incidents that that\h we've never even we've never even shared with\h\h 351 00:47:18,240 --> 00:47:31,860 the public to date I mean I have I have incidents\h that involving a doppelganger uh uh uh an incident\h\h 352 00:47:31,860 --> 00:47:43,500 where Mass livestock were killed in an unusual\h manner and uh you know so many different things\h\h 353 00:47:43,500 --> 00:47:53,160 and I know John John has the same and so there are\h still so much more and even personal experiences\h\h 354 00:47:53,160 --> 00:48:00,840 with the Paranormal that's still going on to\h this very day um so there's so much more that\h\h 355 00:48:01,560 --> 00:48:11,100 we have to be able to bring to the surface and\h bring to the public so yeah interesting John\h\h 356 00:48:11,100 --> 00:48:19,680 did you want to add anything to that oh boy\h there's uh they said that when we finished uh\h\h 357 00:48:19,680 --> 00:48:27,720 filming that uh they had enough actually for two\h episodes but they could only put one episode Down\h\h 358 00:48:29,040 --> 00:48:37,800 um one of the things that we're very adamant about\h because we had done shows with other production\h\h 359 00:48:37,800 --> 00:48:44,340 companies and they says oh you know we want to\h tell your story and what happens is they kind\h\h 360 00:48:44,340 --> 00:48:49,200 of made it a mishmash of different stories all\h put together to make it sound more interesting\h\h 361 00:48:49,860 --> 00:48:57,060 and we told this company that we weren't\h going to do that if uh they would tell our\h\h 362 00:48:57,060 --> 00:49:05,760 story correctly uh that we would work with them\h and uh you know they did uh I've got to hand it\h\h 363 00:49:05,760 --> 00:49:15,540 to them they they came out you know it was great\h um they they actually were very careful about uh\h\h 364 00:49:15,540 --> 00:49:22,140 making sure that every little detail was correct\h and we were happy with the result that we saw\h\h 365 00:49:23,280 --> 00:49:32,400 I think one of the things that we've made clear up\h front is that we're not going to fabricate things\h\h 366 00:49:33,000 --> 00:49:43,920 you know that didn't happen uh we're not going\h to exaggerate or um you know sensationalize\h\h 367 00:49:44,820 --> 00:49:50,400 uh these cases that we were involved\h in I mean him and I were not against\h\h 368 00:49:52,200 --> 00:49:56,700 creating uh some a work of fiction\h\h 369 00:49:57,540 --> 00:50:03,240 that would be based on some of these experiences\h I think there's there's room for that in a motion\h\h 370 00:50:03,240 --> 00:50:13,440 picture or whatever but in what we're sharing uh\h either with our presentations or something like uh\h\h 371 00:50:14,580 --> 00:50:21,360 like Unsolved Mysteries you know we're\h gonna stick to what what happened and and uh\h\h 372 00:50:22,740 --> 00:50:27,900 um so we've we've been very adamant about\h that we're not gonna We're not gonna we're\h\h 373 00:50:27,900 --> 00:50:33,060 John and I aren't these people that go in these\h investigations that are jumping and running oh\h\h 374 00:50:33,060 --> 00:50:40,260 my God and we we're not we don't do that uh we\h don't do that and never have done that and uh\h\h 375 00:50:40,800 --> 00:50:49,320 we've stuck to the fact that we are investigators\h where we were sworn at the time you know and uh\h\h 376 00:50:49,320 --> 00:50:56,940 We're Not Gonna fabricate fabricate and make up\h things and lie about things you know and I think\h\h 377 00:50:56,940 --> 00:51:05,280 that's probably one of the things that Maybe sets\h us apart with some things that you see out there\h\h 378 00:51:05,280 --> 00:51:13,860 is that we were sworn officers and this was our\h assignment and uh um we had a duty to help people\h\h 379 00:51:14,580 --> 00:51:23,040 and and we we still carry that part of it as far\h as you know in the investigations we still do to\h\h 380 00:51:23,040 --> 00:51:31,020 this day not as law enforcement but we're trying\h to help people bottom line people that are people\h\h 381 00:51:31,020 --> 00:51:38,580 that want help and that there's nobody there to\h help them so yeah right well yeah that was kind\h\h 382 00:51:38,580 --> 00:51:44,220 of going to be my last question you know I know\h you're both retired now from the Rangers however\h\h 383 00:51:44,220 --> 00:51:53,460 uh you know you've made you've made uh I would\h imagine very strong bonds with these people who've\h\h 384 00:51:53,460 --> 00:52:01,740 had highly anomalous experiences that you would go\h on to um you know become a part of and investigate\h\h 385 00:52:01,740 --> 00:52:07,260 and find some closure for these people so that\h was going to be kind of my last question do the\h\h 386 00:52:07,260 --> 00:52:15,060 investigations continue and uh you know what is\h that like you know coming out on the other side\h\h 387 00:52:15,060 --> 00:52:21,660 not having to speak for the Rangers any longer\h but speaking for yourselves on a lot of this stuff\h\h 388 00:52:22,200 --> 00:52:28,200 um yeah that's my long-winded way of asking do the\h investigations continue John let's start with you\h\h 389 00:52:29,160 --> 00:52:37,440 well the investigations uh uh have on a\h case-by-case basis continued uh we do get\h\h 390 00:52:37,440 --> 00:52:45,480 requests and um unfortunately we don't get paid\h for any of these uh we're doing it on our own time\h\h 391 00:52:45,480 --> 00:52:55,380 so to speak and it it can run into quite a quite\h a bit of money as you know just just gassing up\h\h 392 00:52:55,380 --> 00:53:04,500 your truck you know to get somewhere can can cost\h a lot now so um it's not that we don't want to do\h\h 393 00:53:04,500 --> 00:53:13,380 some of these things is that in some cases we just\h can't can't go and do them people also ask us and\h\h 394 00:53:13,380 --> 00:53:22,080 and I need to put this in here they ask us how can\h I protect myself and I an alien con I had a person\h\h 395 00:53:22,080 --> 00:53:29,820 ask me you know should I start smudging should I\h start using uh sage and this was a non-indian that\h\h 396 00:53:29,820 --> 00:53:37,200 was asking this from the audience and my answer\h to them was that uh take go back into the history\h\h 397 00:53:37,200 --> 00:53:45,660 of your culture and find out what they did to\h ward off evil and then use those things with\h\h 398 00:53:45,660 --> 00:53:54,420 intent the intent of your mind that this is going\h to protect you and make it your own don't don't\h\h 399 00:53:54,420 --> 00:54:03,840 just copy Native Americans as to what they do and\h I had a lot of Native Americans afterwards come\h\h 400 00:54:03,840 --> 00:54:11,520 up to me and thank me for making that statement\h uh because a lot of people are just adopting or\h\h 401 00:54:11,520 --> 00:54:21,000 uh assimilating yeah assimilating what natives\h do and um you know that it really if you just go\h\h 402 00:54:21,000 --> 00:54:27,120 through the motions it doesn't have anything\h to it it relies on the intent of the person\h\h 403 00:54:28,920 --> 00:54:34,260 thank you thank you for clarifying that um\h Stan do you have anything to add to that in\h\h 404 00:54:34,260 --> 00:54:40,260 terms of the continued investigations and kind\h of trying to continue to help these people after\h\h 405 00:54:40,980 --> 00:54:46,260 you know the initial events happened\h I think one of the things is that\h\h 406 00:54:48,060 --> 00:54:55,740 that's a part of John John's personality\h and my personality to help when people are\h\h 407 00:54:55,740 --> 00:55:04,260 in need people around a certain age and um so\h when it comes to the Paranormal Supernatural\h\h 408 00:55:05,460 --> 00:55:12,600 um you you for the most part you can't run to the\h local police department because you're going to\h\h 409 00:55:12,600 --> 00:55:19,320 end up getting turned away just as what John\h conveyed with some of the previous cases that\h\h 410 00:55:19,320 --> 00:55:27,360 happened on the naval reservation uh and the\h unique thing with that is our chief at the time\h\h 411 00:55:28,380 --> 00:55:36,660 was very adamant that you took an oath and you\h may not understand these cases you may not believe\h\h 412 00:55:36,660 --> 00:55:45,180 in uh whatever it is that's being presented but\h you're going to be there to help me that's what\h\h 413 00:55:45,180 --> 00:55:52,140 you signed on to do to help people and protect\h people and and we did that but that's also a part\h\h 414 00:55:52,140 --> 00:55:58,800 of John's personality and my personality you know\h the for the most part when people are experiencing\h\h 415 00:56:00,120 --> 00:56:07,500 whether it's a Bigfoot case or a haunting case\h or you know they're reaching out for help and\h\h 416 00:56:08,160 --> 00:56:15,840 in our experience most of those individuals\h they're traumatized they're going through\h\h 417 00:56:15,840 --> 00:56:21,900 some type of trauma whether it's a 10\h year old girl being chased by a Bigfoot\h\h 418 00:56:21,900 --> 00:56:30,060 you know after she dropped off you know at\h the school bus stop or you know things like\h\h 419 00:56:30,060 --> 00:56:37,380 that these individuals are traumatized and um\h you know whether it's an elderly woman that's\h\h 420 00:56:38,100 --> 00:56:45,060 you know being victimized and and her\h property being taken by an entity or whatever\h\h 421 00:56:46,620 --> 00:56:55,320 these people are needing help but they're they're\h in reality there is no paranormal police out there\h\h 422 00:56:55,320 --> 00:57:03,120 to try to come to the rescue and I guess that's\h in a sense that's what John and I have tried to\h\h 423 00:57:03,960 --> 00:57:13,740 tried to fulfill is to be there for the people\h that need help anyway I love that yeah well they\h\h 424 00:57:13,740 --> 00:57:19,680 were they were damn lucky to have you guys I'll\h kind of leave it at that to have such empathetic\h\h 425 00:57:19,680 --> 00:57:25,980 individuals uh willing to work with experiencers\h you know because like you said it's very hard\h\h 426 00:57:26,880 --> 00:57:33,300 um and people struggle with these things no\h matter what they are aliens ghosts uh Cryptids\h\h 427 00:57:33,300 --> 00:57:38,220 um you know it's not easy uh it's becoming a\h little easier I think for people who've seen\h\h 428 00:57:38,220 --> 00:57:46,020 UFOs I mean UFOs seem to be the in the mainstream\h now more than ever and widely accepted in some\h\h 429 00:57:46,020 --> 00:57:52,440 ways uh but for the other stuff I can imagine\h it's still very isolating and alienating to\h\h 430 00:57:52,440 --> 00:57:59,700 to talk about these things so um no I you know\h from I I've seen a UFO so I guess I'm kind of\h\h 431 00:57:59,700 --> 00:58:06,540 inexperiencer so I have to thank you guys for um\h being open and willing to do stuff like that but\h\h 432 00:58:06,540 --> 00:58:14,580 um to kind of close things out here uh in terms\h of continuing uh contact in the desert June 2nd\h\h 433 00:58:14,580 --> 00:58:19,560 through the 4th is going to be taking place and\h you guys are going to be speaking at that so\h\h 434 00:58:19,560 --> 00:58:25,560 um would you mind giving us a little tease of\h maybe what you'll be talking about um if you know\h\h 435 00:58:25,560 --> 00:58:30,120 yet when you'll be presenting uh anything like\h that whichever one of you would like to take that 436 00:58:33,480 -->

01:00:02,100 --> 01:00:07,860 sight to behold and seeing the images from these\h investigations I think just lend so much Credence\h\h 448 01:00:07,860 --> 01:00:15,300 to them as well so um guys definitely awesome and\h make it to contact in the desert yes please stand\h\h 449 01:00:16,380 --> 01:00:24,900 um there are a number of other uh events that\h both John and I are participating in this year\h\h 450 01:00:24,900 --> 01:00:34,380 would you mind if he elaborates on some of those\h oh absolutely yeah please okay back to my brain 451 01:00:37,500 --> 01:00:41,940 I'm get I'm at the point now where I have\h to write everything down otherwise I just\h\h 452 01:00:41,940 --> 01:00:51,780 forget it I'm the same way okay so after\h contact in the desert on um on June 10th\h\h 453 01:00:51,780 --> 01:01:00,480 through the 11th I'll be at the Bigfoot Expo\h in Fairbanks Alaska that'll just be me and uh\h\h 454 01:01:01,560 --> 01:01:07,740 after that we'll both be at on June 30th\h we'll both be at the Roswell incident speaking\h\h 455 01:01:08,340 --> 01:01:15,420 and we have some stuff uh coming up in September\h in Colorado uh around the middle of September\h\h 456 01:01:15,420 --> 01:01:23,220 where we'll be speaking at the uh the Bigfoot\h Outpost and for uh Denver mufon uh so there's\h\h 457 01:01:23,220 --> 01:01:30,300 a lot of things that are still going on and uh I\h would like to say at this point that one of the\h\h 458 01:01:30,300 --> 01:01:39,780 reasons Dan hasn't been with me on a lot of these\h uh talks is that he just retired a week ago oh\h\h 459 01:01:39,780 --> 01:01:47,880 he's still working at the time so he did 30 years\h in law enforcement and finally you know survived\h\h 460 01:01:47,880 --> 01:01:57,300 it and got out but in the time he was there it was\h kind of an unspoken thing uh we don't want you to\h\h 461 01:01:57,300 --> 01:02:06,780 go out and do all these UFO Cryptid uh paranormal\h stuff because uh he he was doing investigations\h\h 462 01:02:07,500 --> 01:02:16,260 so you know he's the the dogs have been released\h now so he's he's available and congratulations\h\h 463 01:02:16,260 --> 01:02:23,880 yeah thank you yeah that's exciting um I know just\h when you thought you were you're ready to rest\h\h 464 01:02:23,880 --> 01:02:29,640 Stan you're gonna be traveling the world speaking\h about this stuff or the foreseeable future\h\h 465 01:02:30,360 --> 01:02:37,320 um that's fine that's amazing well um I have to\h thank you guys for giving me your time tonight\h\h 466 01:02:37,320 --> 01:02:43,260 uh sharing those stories with us but I do kind of\h want to just give these last moments to both of\h\h 467 01:02:43,260 --> 01:02:49,380 you um any last words you want to give to our to\h our audience here just about you know this weird\h\h 468 01:02:49,380 --> 01:02:57,240 world we live in where it's heading and how all\h of this paranormal stuff plays into it yeah any\h\h 469 01:02:57,240 --> 01:03:02,400 any last words you want to leave our our viewers\h and listeners with uh Stan let's start with you\h\h 470 01:03:04,080 --> 01:03:10,020 um one of the things really that I want\h to try to get across in convey is that\h\h 471 01:03:11,460 --> 01:03:16,560 if you've had these kind of experiences if\h you're a family member if a family member\h\h 472 01:03:16,560 --> 01:03:26,220 has an experience whether it's Bigfoot\h or UFOs or haunting related uh activity\h\h 473 01:03:27,600 --> 01:03:37,500 you know really you're first of all you're not\h crazy uh there are you'd be hard-pressed to\h\h 474 01:03:37,500 --> 01:03:44,940 probably try to reach out and find an individual\h family that has not had a family member\h\h 475 01:03:45,600 --> 01:03:54,420 that has some type of paranormal experience\h whether it's UFOs Bigfoot or um you know things\h\h 476 01:03:54,420 --> 01:04:02,820 involving witchcraft so globally if you look\h you'd be hard-pressed to try to find any family\h\h 477 01:04:02,820 --> 01:04:14,280 that hasn't had some type of experience however\h small or however you know uh really large or\h\h 478 01:04:14,280 --> 01:04:23,400 overpressing so um so you're not crazy people have\h these experiences and uh yeah you're not alone so\h\h 479 01:04:24,660 --> 01:04:34,140 um I'll let John thank you okay for me um one\h of the things as as a criminal investigator 480 01:04:36,360 --> 01:04:44,040 is that we're constantly looking for answers we're\h not satisfied with just uh you know other cases\h\h 481 01:04:44,040 --> 01:04:50,820 done okay throw it in the back back of the file\h cabinet and forget about it uh we're looking for\h\h 482 01:04:50,820 --> 01:04:59,100 answers we want to know we found out um as far\h back as 2009 we started coming up with a theory\h\h 483 01:04:59,100 --> 01:05:10,140 that all of these things UFOs Bigfoot uh Cryptids\h uh even skinwalkers were all related somehow that\h\h 484 01:05:10,140 --> 01:05:16,320 there had to be something common linking them\h all together and what we found out was this idea\h\h 485 01:05:16,320 --> 01:05:25,920 of string theory and parallel Dimensions uh had a\h lot to do with with it we've got UFOs popping into\h\h 486 01:05:25,920 --> 01:05:33,660 existence with a definite pop that you know the\h sound goes right through your body and then they\h\h 487 01:05:33,660 --> 01:05:43,440 fade out we've had uh Bigfoot appear and when he's\h appeared and we got more cases involved in Bigfoot\h\h 488 01:05:43,440 --> 01:05:51,480 cases we saw corresponding increase in UFO traffic\h and we've seen them linked together numerous times\h\h 489 01:05:51,480 --> 01:06:01,140 that that they were seen in the presence of UFOs\h and we've tracked Bigfoot and he's disappeared if\h\h 490 01:06:01,140 --> 01:06:06,960 he had taken another step he would have left the\h track and backtracked him to the point where he\h\h 491 01:06:06,960 --> 01:06:13,320 his Footprints appear so we think that they're\h coming in from a parallel Dimension through a\h\h 492 01:06:13,320 --> 01:06:20,820 dimensional gate somehow and they might be able\h to manipulate these things whether accidental or\h\h 493 01:06:20,820 --> 01:06:28,860 on purpose there's definitely something here that\h they're interested in same with hauntings so um\h\h 494 01:06:28,860 --> 01:06:40,680 you know we start talking about this in 2011 in in\h presenting and uh since then the industry uh the\h\h 495 01:06:40,680 --> 01:06:48,960 TV industry now you turn tune in and you hear a\h lot about parallel dimensions and the government's\h\h 496 01:06:48,960 --> 01:06:54,360 even trying to figure out how to access and use\h dimensional Gates and faster than light travel\h\h 497 01:06:55,200 --> 01:07:04,500 so yeah I think we're ahead of the ahead of\h the curve now yeah well let's add psychic\h\h 498 01:07:04,500 --> 01:07:09,660 abilities too because uh that was actually a\h question I forgot to ask you guys is this all\h\h 499 01:07:09,660 --> 01:07:15,480 somehow connected so thanks John you you\h you precognitively answered that for me\h\h 500 01:07:16,080 --> 01:07:22,620 um so thank you thank you well we knew you were\h gonna ask that exactly it got to come up at some\h\h 501 01:07:22,620 --> 01:07:29,940 point in these conversations but um no I've got\h the gentleman longer than I told you so uh we're\h\h 502 01:07:29,940 --> 01:07:36,120 gonna say good night for tonight but once again\h guys please go if you can to contact in the desert\h\h 503 01:07:36,120 --> 01:07:42,480 that is June 2nd through the 4th and also check\h out the other events that John and eventually\h\h 504 01:07:42,480 --> 01:07:51,840 eventually Stan will be speaking at as well um\h yes uh again I I briefly met you guys almost oh\h\h 505 01:07:51,840 --> 01:07:56,880 gosh almost a decade ago at this point and um it\h was an honor and pleasure to see you speak then\h\h 506 01:07:56,880 --> 01:08:02,040 and it was an honor and pleasure to have you on\h somewhere in the skies tonight as well so thank\h\h 507 01:08:02,040 --> 01:08:08,100 thank you very much thank you and thank you to\h your audience yeah and thank you guys for having\h\h
