step back 38 00:01:39,030 --> 00:01:37,280 and find a little bit about your your 39 00:01:40,230 --> 00:01:39,040 past your history and can i watch legit 40 00:01:42,310 --> 00:01:40,240 to where you

kid i used 50 00:02:05,990 --> 00:02:03,759 to uh 51 00:02:07,030 --> 00:02:06,000 walk around the woods looking for an 52 00:02:13,030 --> 00:02:07,040 alien buddy 53 00:02:13,830 --> 00:02:13,040 when i was a kid uh so yeah from an 54 00:02:16,150 --> 00:02:13,840 early age 55 00:02:16,949 --> 00:02:16,160 you know and then through my childhood 56 00:02:24,070 --> 00:02:16,959 and 57 00:02:26,869 --> 00:02:24,080 sci-fi these were all big things to me 58 00:02:27,110 --> 00:02:26,879 but when i became you know an adult when 59 00:02:56,470 --> 00:02:27,120 i 60 00:02:58,309 --> 00:02:56,480 of people and 61 00:03:00,550 --> 00:02:58,319 reignited a lot of people's passion for 62 00:03:02,309 --> 00:03:00,560 the subject and inquisitive nature 63 00:03:03,589 --> 00:03:02,319 did you ever have any like sightings 64 00:03:04,790 --> 00:03:03,599 growing up do you remember seeing any 65 00:03:08,390 --> 00:03:04,800 weird lights in the sky 66 00:03:11,910 --> 00:03:08,400 anything like that um well 67 00:03:15,110 --> 00:03:11,920 a couple things one when i was a kid 68 00:03:17,670 --> 00:03:15,120 meaning around 10 11 12 years old 69 00:03:18,390 --> 00:03:17,680 i grew up within driving distance of 70 00:03:20,710 --> 00:03:18,400 aberdeen 71 00:03:21,830 --> 00:03:20,720 proving grounds which is owned by the us 72 00:03:24,550 --> 00:03:21,840 army 73 00:03:25,190 --> 00:03:24,560 and my brother and i use we grew up in 74 00:03:26,949 --> 00:03:25,200 the country 75 00:03:29,270 --> 00:03:26,959 my brother and i used to go outside at 76 00:03:31,149 --> 00:03:29,280 night and in the direction of avid 77 00:03:33,990 --> 00:03:31,159 improving ground we would see 78 00:03:36,149 --> 00:03:34,000 triangle-shaped lights 79 00:03:37,190 --> 00:03:36,159 small not not these big things but you 80 00:03:39,430 --> 00:03:37,200 know um 81 00:03:41,190 --> 00:03:39,440 one two three lights and then a 82 00:03:42,470 --> 00:03:41,200 helicopter or something almost like it 83 00:03:45,270 --> 00:03:42,480 was transporting it 84 00:03:46,869 --> 00:03:45,280 whatever it was down to aberdeen proving 85 00:03:47,670 --> 00:03:46,879 ground and i remember we thought that 86 00:03:51,270 --> 00:03:47,680 was pretty cool 87 00:03:52,789 --> 00:03:51,280 now it probably was a drone or an f-117 88 00:03:54,710 --> 00:03:52,799 or something like that but i remember us 89 00:03:59,949 --> 00:03:54,720 going 90 00:04:03,270 --> 00:03:59,959 and then in 2003 when i was maybe 91 00:04:06,789 --> 00:04:03,280 24 no 23. 92 00:04:08,309 --> 00:04:06,799 um i had a big sighting of a like a real 93 00:04:12,949 --> 00:04:08,319 thing a real ufo 94 00:04:15,910 --> 00:04:12,959 um i was at night and 95 00:04:16,870 --> 00:04:15,920 i looked up and there was this big 96 00:04:19,189 --> 00:04:16,880 silent 97 00:04:20,629 --> 00:04:19,199 triangle it was just two sticks like 98 00:04:23,030 --> 00:04:20,639 this there was no body 99 00:04:24,550 --> 00:04:23,040 in the middle just two black sticks with 100 00:04:27,430 --> 00:04:24,560 blue lights 101 00:04:28,550 --> 00:04:27,440 and it was just hovering right over top 102 00:04:30,870 --> 00:04:28,560 of me um 103 00:04:32,070 --> 00:04:30,880 not a sound not a and it was flying 104 00:04:35,350 --> 00:04:32,080 against the wind 105 00:04:37,030 --> 00:04:35,360 which was strange no jet sounds 106 00:04:38,550 --> 00:04:37,040 nothing and it just went over until it 107 00:04:42,469 --> 00:04:38,560 disappeared and that was 108 00:04:44,710 --> 00:04:42,479 a creepy experience was it moving pretty 109 00:04:45,909 --> 00:04:44,720 fast or was it going slowly like how how 110 00:04:48,550 --> 00:04:45,919 quickly did it go away 111 00:04:50,710 --> 00:04:48,560 no you know i i'm familiar with jets 112 00:04:51,749 --> 00:04:50,720 i've seen a b-2 bomber fly i've seen an 113 00:04:54,710 --> 00:04:51,759 f-18 fly 114 00:04:55,270 --> 00:04:54,720 up close i've seen an f-16 fly up close 115 00:04:57,189 --> 00:04:55,280 i've seen 116 00:05:01,189 --> 00:04:57,199 obviously the commercial airliners it 117 00:05:02,310 --> 00:05:01,199 was flying way slower than any of those 118 00:05:04,310 --> 00:05:02,320 so you knew you were looking at 119 00:05:05,430 --> 00:05:04,320 something that was definitely out of the 120 00:05:07,430 --> 00:05:05,440 ordinary which 121 00:05:09,029 --> 00:05:07,440 that's pretty cool what yeah how did 122 00:05:10,550 --> 00:05:09,039 that impact you at all like 123 00:05:11,990 --> 00:05:10,560 because what i find really interesting 124 00:05:13,270 --> 00:05:12,000 this is something ryan sprague talks 125 00:05:15,029 --> 00:05:13,280 about you know the human approach to the 126 00:05:17,430 --> 00:05:15,039 subject and whatnot 127 00:05:18,870 --> 00:05:17,440 is these satans happen but then 128 00:05:19,830 --> 00:05:18,880 afterwards like i've had a couple and 129 00:05:21,830 --> 00:05:19,840 i've talked about mine 130 00:05:22,870 --> 00:05:21,840 plenty of times now on the podcast but 131 00:05:25,029 --> 00:05:22,880 people ask me oh 132 00:05:25,909 --> 00:05:25,039 and then what and well i went home and 133 00:05:27,590 --> 00:05:25,919 went to bed 134 00:05:29,350 --> 00:05:27,600 like and then i got up the next day and 135 00:05:31,350 -->

group of friends like 145 00:05:49,749 --> 00:05:48,160 right after i told a group of friends 146 00:05:52,629 --> 00:05:49,759 what i had seen 147 00:05:54,710 --> 00:05:52,639 and then yeah just life went on and it 148 00:05:56,629 --> 00:05:54,720 would just be a story i would tell 149 00:05:58,550 --> 00:05:56,639 about this experience that i had but it 150 00:06:01,350 --> 00:05:58,560

it's like the only one of his movies 222 00:08:34,870 --> 00:08:32,959 that's not allowed to be screened and so 223 00:08:38,149 --> 00:08:34,880 i did a whole documentary about like 224 00:08:40,310 --> 00:08:38,159 the backstory as to why so yeah i have a 225 00:08:42,870 --> 00:08:40,320 ver i have a lot of non-ufo 226 00:08:43,509 --> 00:08:42,880 assignments cool that's good to know 227 00:08:45,190 --> 00:08:43,519 because 228 00:08:47,190 --> 00:08:45,200 and you'll appreciate this that so many 229 00:08:48,949 --> 00:08:47,200 people in the ufo community 230 00:08:50,550 --> 00:08:48,959 spend so much time on this for some 231 00:08:52,230 --> 00:08:50,560 people it's their whole lives 232 00:08:54,389 --> 00:08:52,240 but for some of us we've got other 233 00:08:55,269 --> 00:08:54,399 full-time jobs and different aspects of 234 00:08:57,910 --> 00:08:55,279 our jobs and 235 00:08:58,630 --> 00:08:57,920 and family as well so totally appreciate 236 00:09:01,829 --> 00:08:58,640 that 237 00:09:04,070 --> 00:09:01,839 now 2017 rolls around and you 238 00:09:05,590 --> 00:09:04,080 you see the new york times piece what's 239 00:09:10,790 --> 00:09:05,600 your immediate reaction to 240 00:09:14,150 --> 00:09:12,790 my immediate reaction to be honest with 241 00:09:16,870 --> 00:09:14,160 you was you know 242 00:09:17,590 --> 00:09:16,880 in in the media not just the post but 243 00:09:20,870 --> 00:09:17,600 everywhere 244 00:09:22,389 --> 00:09:20,880 it was it sent shock waves through 245 00:09:23,509 --> 00:09:22,399 because it was the new york times and it 246 00:09:24,070 --> 00:09:23,519 was the washington post and it was 247 00:09:25,949 --> 00:09:24,080 political 248 00:09:27,190 --> 00:09:25,959 these were heavy-hitting 249 00:09:30,070 --> 00:09:27,200 well-established 250 00:09:32,870 --> 00:09:30,080 journalistic media entities and they 251 00:09:36,310 --> 00:09:32,880 were validating a topic that for so long 252 00:09:38,230 --> 00:09:36,320 was ridiculed or joked with toyed with 253 00:09:39,430 --> 00:09:38,240 and so i think everyone in the newsroom 254 00:09:42,550 --> 00:09:39,440 was like wait 255 00:09:43,430 --> 00:09:42,560 how do we cover this and i as someone 256 00:09:46,550 --> 00:09:43,440 who had you know 257 00:09:49,190 --> 00:09:46,560 low key spent my whole life kind of 258 00:09:49,990 --> 00:09:49,200 paying attention to ufos i was like 259 00:09:52,870 --> 00:09:50,000 gnawing at the 260 00:09:55,030 --> 00:09:52,880 bit to speak up and say i know something 261 00:09:57,110 --> 00:09:55,040 i know a little bit about this topic 262 00:09:59,110 --> 00:09:57,120 um ask me ask me you know that kind of 263 00:10:02,310 --> 00:09:59,120 thing and 264 00:10:02,949 --> 00:10:02,320 i slowly but surely people kept turning 265 00:10:05,350 --> 00:10:02,959 to me 266 00:10:07,350 --> 00:10:05,360 for questions or oh this new ufo thing 267 00:10:09,269 --> 00:10:07,360 came here hand it to steven you know 268 00:10:11,910 --> 00:10:09,279 have him work it a little bit 269 00:10:13,829 --> 00:10:11,920 and that eventually became let's just do 270 00:10:16,389 --> 00:10:13,839 a whole video series 271 00:10:18,550 --> 00:10:16,399 out of this so that's where the basement 272 00:10:19,590 --> 00:10:18,560 office came from and that was going to 273 00:10:21,590 --> 00:10:19,600 be my next question 274 00:10:23,350 --> 00:10:21,600 so the basement office comes from the 275 00:10:24,870 --> 00:10:23,360 aspect of getting all this footage in 276 00:10:26,389 --> 00:10:24,880 and these people talking about it and 277 00:10:29,030 --> 00:10:26,399 there's a media buzz 278 00:10:29,590 --> 00:10:29,040 how does it come to be the that episode 279 00:10:31,430 --> 00:10:29,600 one 280 00:10:32,949 --> 00:10:31,440 where it's yourself and nick pope 281 00:10:34,470 --> 00:10:32,959 talking about you know the 282 00:10:35,990 --> 00:10:34,480 nimitz princeton how does nick get 283 00:10:38,790 --> 00:10:36,000 involved as well 284 00:10:39,269 --> 00:10:38,800 yeah i uh so the the real story is is 285 00:10:42,470 --> 00:10:39,279 that 286 00:10:45,509 --> 00:10:42,480 they the post just asked me to pitch 287 00:10:46,630 --> 00:10:45,519 an idea for a ufo video series and 288 00:10:49,590 --> 00:10:46,640 honestly 289 00:10:50,150 --> 00:10:49,600 i think what they want like expected was 290 00:10:53,350 --> 00:10:50,160 like 291 00:10:56,630 --> 00:10:53,360 short easily produced six minute 292 00:10:59,190 --> 00:10:56,640 episodes of like just me with a script 293 00:10:59,829 --> 00:10:59,200 in front of like a green screen reading 294 00:11:02,470 --> 00:10:59,839 something 295 00:11:03,190 --> 00:11:02,480 this week the pentagon said blah blah 296 00:11:05,110 --> 00:11:03,200 blah the 297 00:11:06,389 --> 00:11:05,120 end like that was all they were like 298 00:11:09,030 --> 00:11:06,399 expecting so 299 00:11:10,230 --> 00:11:09,040 but i went like overboard i was like no 300 00:11:12,550 --> 00:11:10,240 i want this whole set 301 00:11:14,710 --> 00:11:12,560 and i want it to be in the basement and 302 00:11:15,509 --> 00:11:14,720 i'll build it myself and i built it i 303 00:11:17,750 --> 00:11:15,519 built the whole 304 00:11:19,110 --> 00:11:17,760 the the basement office set was actually 305 00:11:23,190 --> 00:11:19,120 a storage room 306 00:11:25,509 --> 00:11:23,200 and i like cleaned it out and then 307 00:11:26,389 --> 00:11:25,519 like painted it and decorated it and 308 00:11:29,670 --> 00:11:26,399 made it 309 00:11:32,310 --> 00:11:29,680 and um and then with nick we sent out 310 00:11:33,990 --> 00:11:32,320 we sent out a bunch of emails um to a 311 00:11:35,269 --> 00:11:34,000 bunch of ufologists well-known 312 00:11:37,910 --> 00:11:35,279 ufologists as 313 00:11:38,790 --> 00:11:37,920 a wide net and i didn't really expect 314 00:11:41,990 --> 00:11:38,800 any of them 315 00:11:44,870 --> 00:11:42,000 to respond but nick responded 316 00:11:45,590 --> 00:11:44,880 positively immediately and was all for 317 00:11:48,630 --> 00:11:45,600 it 318 00:11:49,910 --> 00:11:48,640 and uh nick was only supposed to be in 319 00:11:52,870 --> 00:11:49,920 one episode 320 00:11:53,350 --> 00:11:52,880 the first episode but when he came out 321 00:11:55,829 --> 00:11:53,360 and 322 00:11:57,030 --> 00:11:55,839 shot we were like oh he's awesome like 323 00:12:00,150 --> 00:11:57,040 we need to put him in 324 00:12:01,110 --> 00:12:00,160 all the episodes so we just that's how 325 00:12:04,069 --> 00:12:01,120 he became 326 00:12:04,870 --> 00:12:04,079 you know the co-host and listen we'll 327 00:12:07,350 --> 00:12:04,880 take a quick 328 00:12:07,910 --> 00:12:07,360 sidebar for a second because people will 329 00:12:09,990 --> 00:12:07,920 shoot me 330 00:12:11,190 --> 00:12:10,000 if i don't ask about this now nick 331 00:12:14,150 --> 00:12:11,200 pope's background 332 00:12:16,870 --> 00:12:14,160 um was well known especially here in the 333 00:12:18,710 --> 00:12:16,880 uk he is the go-to guy for ufos 334 00:12:20,150 --> 00:12:18,720 if there is a piece in a tabloid 335 00:12:22,389 --> 00:12:20,160 newspaper or 336 00:12:24,629 --> 00:12:22,399 you know the the bbc you tend to see 337 00:12:25,990 --> 00:12:24,639 nick pope as a talking head or quoted in 338 00:12:28,790 --> 00:12:26,000 the paper he was 339 00:12:30,550 --> 00:12:28,800 that the x-files guy which is usually 340 00:12:31,509 --> 00:12:30,560 what he's addressed as within the paper 341 00:12:33,350 --> 00:12:31,519 however 342 00:12:35,430 --> 00:12:33,360 his background has came into question 343 00:12:37,509 --> 00:12:35,440 over the last last year or two 344 00:12:38,710 --> 00:12:37,519 now there's no doubting nick is a nice 345 00:12:40,629 --> 00:12:38,720 guy i've met him 346 00:12:42,629 --> 00:12:40,639 in a lecture in beric about five years 347 00:12:45,190 --> 00:12:42,639 ago that i i attended 348 00:12:45,750 --> 00:12:45,200 what do you think about nick's previous 349 00:12:48,150 --> 00:12:45,760 role 350 00:12:48,790 --> 00:12:48,160 and the idea that it has been overblown 351 00:12:51,670 --> 00:12:48,800 from an 352 00:12:53,350 --> 00:12:51,680 administrative role to something where 353 00:12:54,470 --> 00:12:53,360 he's referred to as you know the uk's 354 00:12:57,030 --> 00:12:54,480 fox mulder which 355 00:12:58,230 --> 00:12:57,040 it seems that he wasn't what's your take 356 00:13:00,710 --> 00:12:58,240 on all that 357 00:13:03,590 --> 00:13:00,720 well i think you know i i i personally 358 00:13:07,110 --> 00:13:03,600 have no doubt that nick was involved 359 00:13:08,949 --> 00:13:07,120 in the mod in in at least at one point 360 00:13:11,030 --> 00:13:08,959 i think you know he says it was the 361 00:13:13,030 --> 00:13:11,040 early 90s a few years with uap 362 00:13:14,949 --> 00:13:13,040 he was he was involved with the uap 363 00:13:17,829 --> 00:13:14,959 within the ministry of defense 364 00:13:20,310 --> 00:13:17,839 funny enough it reminds me it mirrors 365 00:13:23,430 --> 00:13:20,320 lou elizondo's story because 366 00:13:26,710 --> 00:13:23,440 in in a lot of ways lou is a little bit 367 00:13:28,949 --> 00:13:26,720 like nick in this respect because 368 00:13:31,110 --> 00:13:28,959 um what does the pentagon say and what 369 00:13:33,750 --> 00:13:31,120 do what do the critics say about lou 370 00:13:35,670 --> 00:13:33,760 oh he he had barely anything to do if 371 00:13:37,509 --> 00:13:35,680 anything to do with atip he wasn't 372 00:13:37,990 --> 00:13:37,519 involved with a tip the pentagon even 373 00:13:40,470 --> 00:13:38,000 says 374 00:13:42,230 --> 00:13:40,480 he had no responsibilities with atip and 375 00:13:44,389 --> 00:13:42,240 then you have blue saying like no 376 00:13:46,150 --> 00:13:44,399 that i actually was i was actually 377 00:13:49,269 --> 00:13:46,160 involved with atip for like 378 00:13:52,470 --> 00:13:49,279 many years if you think about it like 379 00:13:54,069 --> 00:13:52,480 nick and and uh and lou that kind of 380 00:13:55,829 --> 00:13:54,079 like mirrors you know you've got like 381 00:13:57,750 --> 00:13:55,839 the naysayers saying like oh he had 382 00:14:00,389 --> 00:13:57,760 nothing to do with this 383 00:14:01,509 --> 00:14:00,399 so it's almost like the same pattern 384 00:14:03,509 --> 00:14:01,519 emerging 385 00:14:06,790 --> 00:14:03,519 yeah you know i agree and i interviewed 386 00:14:09,030 --> 00:14:06,800 nick for my seventh episode on this and 387 00:14:09,829 --> 00:14:09,040 i i introduced him as the uk's louise 388 00:14:11,910 --> 00:14:09,839 elizondo 389 00:14:13,590 --> 00:14:11,920 at the time and i agree with you to a 390 00:14:15,509 --> 00:14:13,600 point i think what we have though is 391 00:14:18,550 --> 00:14:15,519 there seems to be a lot more 392 00:14:20,629 --> 00:14:18,560 evidence has come out since that lou 393 00:14:22,310 --> 00:14:20,639 is who he says he was and i'm not saying 394 00:14:23,269 --> 00:14:22,320 nick didn't work at the mod nick 395 00:14:25,350 --> 00:14:23,279 absolutely did 396 00:14:27,670 --> 00:14:25,360 and he was involved on the ufo desk what 397 00:14:30,230 --> 00:14:27,680 what i think though seems to be the case 398 00:14:31,269 --> 00:14:30,240 and i will caveat this at the end as 399 00:14:33,750 --> 00:14:31,279 that the 400 00:14:35,110 --> 00:14:33,760 his job seems to have been far more 401 00:14:38,069 --> 00:14:35,120 administrative 402 00:14:39,509 --> 00:14:38,079 than than maybe nick has allowed to be 403 00:14:40,550 --> 00:14:39,519 embellished and i don't think he'd done 404 00:14:43,430 --> 00:14:40,560 that i think the uk 405 00:14:44,150 --> 00:14:43,440 media done that for him decades ago and 406 00:14:45,750 --> 00:14:44,160 he's he's 407 00:14:47,750 --> 00:14:45,760 he's a good guy he's charismatic and 408 00:14:50,470 --> 00:14:47,760 he's nice to listen to and no doubt he's 409 00:14:52,870 --> 00:14:50,480 he's had some exposure but what 410 00:14:54,470 --> 00:14:52,880 potentially has happened is that the 411 00:14:56,150 --> 00:14:54,480 i think the british military are 412 00:14:57,509 --> 00:14:56,160 probably better than the u.s military 413 00:14:59,110 --> 00:14:57,519 keeping things quiet 414 00:15:00,470 --> 00:14:59,120 because you know they're very 415 00:15:02,150 --> 00:15:00,480 tight-lipped about a lot of things here 416 00:15:03,430 --> 00:15:02,160 in the uk especially when it comes to 417 00:15:06,150 --> 00:15:03,440 ufos and uep 418 00:15:06,870 --> 00:15:06,160 and there seems to be no one backing up 419 00:15:09,590 --> 00:15:06,880 what 420 00:15:10,389 --> 00:15:09,600 nick pope maybe in the past was claimed 421 00:15:11,829 --> 00:15:10,399 to have done 422 00:15:13,590 --> 00:15:11,839 and that's not to say that he maybe 423 00:15:15,269 --> 00:15:13,600 didn't do that but you're right 424 00:15:17,509 --> 00:15:15,279 in the sense that that's what's came out 425 00:15:20,389 --> 00:15:17,519 from the pentagon and dod in terms of 426 00:15:22,710 --> 00:15:20,399 of luella's ondo as well but that's 427 00:15:24,949 --> 00:15:22,720 that's by the by because nick has 428 00:15:26,470 --> 00:15:24,959 fashioned himself a role and a 429 00:15:28,949 --> 00:15:26,480 relatively positive one 430 00:15:29,910 --> 00:15:28,959 within ufology as as we understand 431 00:15:31,350 --> 00:15:29,920 ufology and 432 00:15:33,269 --> 00:15:31,360 he has a good talking head to have 433 00:15:33,910 --> 00:15:33,279 alongside you on the basement office as 434 00:15:37,350 --> 00:15:33,920 well 435 00:15:38,870 --> 00:15:37,360 um now what i want to know is 436 00:15:41,030 --> 00:15:38,880 what's been your favorite part of 437 00:15:42,629 --> 00:15:41,040 recording the basement office 438 00:15:45,829 --> 00:15:42,639 sorry basement office has been a 439 00:15:49,030 --> 00:15:45,839 favorite topic to cover 440 00:15:49,910 --> 00:15:49,040 um that's a great question so i would 441 00:15:51,990 --> 00:15:49,920 say like 442 00:15:54,310 --> 00:15:52,000 my favorite qu my favorite part about 443 00:15:57,189 --> 00:15:54,320 the basement office in general just 444 00:15:59,350 --> 00:15:57,199 overall is that the post allows me to 445 00:16:02,629 --> 00:15:59,360 get deep in the weeds it's not 446 00:16:06,949 --> 00:16:02,639 it's not a headlines uh show 447 00:16:09,910 --> 00:16:06,959 it's not a it we get into the details um 448 00:16:10,949 --> 00:16:09,920 it allows me to be skeptical uh there's 449 00:16:13,590 --> 00:16:10,959 breathing room 450 00:16:15,269 --> 00:16:13,600 to really kind of get into what happened 451 00:16:18,829 --> 00:16:15,279 versus the rumor 452 00:16:21,590 --> 00:16:18,839 um i would say out uh it also 453 00:16:22,150 --> 00:16:21,600 reinvigorated my interest in the topic 454 00:16:23,910 --> 00:16:22,160 because 455 00:16:25,910 --> 00:16:23,920 for every episode i need to do my 456 00:16:27,110 --> 00:16:25,920 homework i need to do my research and i 457 00:16:28,150 --> 00:16:27,120 need to figure out what the hell is 458 00:16:31,590 --> 00:16:28,160 going on 459 00:16:31,990 --> 00:16:31,600 and uh and and in doing that i learn a 460 00:16:35,670 --> 00:16:32,000 lot 461 00:16:36,389 --> 00:16:35,680 and out of that i i gravitate to certain 462 00:16:39,189 --> 00:16:36,399 cases 463 00:16:40,550 --> 00:16:39,199 um the zimbabwe aerial school case in 464 00:16:43,670 --> 00:16:40,560 1994 465 00:16:45,829 --> 00:16:43,680 being an example of a case that i can't 466 00:16:49,110 --> 00:16:45,839 outright dismiss or i i also 467 00:16:50,389 --> 00:16:49,120 can't outright um create a devil's 468 00:16:53,189 --> 00:16:50,399 advocate you know 469 00:16:54,389 --> 00:16:53,199 i i can't create another argument to 470 00:16:56,870 --> 00:16:54,399 what really happened 471 00:16:58,949 --> 00:16:56,880 with those children while there are 472 00:16:59,350 --> 00:16:58,959 explanations none of them make sense to 473 00:17:03,189 --> 00:16:59,360 me 474 00:17:06,470 --> 00:17:03,199 um the 1976 canary islands 475 00:17:09,270 --> 00:17:06,480 case um just baffles me 476 00:17:10,390 --> 00:17:09,280 uh not not just because of the immensity 477 00:17:13,669 --> 00:17:10,400 of the uap 478 00:17:15,990 --> 00:17:13,679 itself which was towering over the city 479 00:17:18,870 --> 00:17:16,000 i mean skyscrapers were just like 480 00:17:21,110 --> 00:17:18,880 it was over the whole city and um but 481 00:17:22,390 --> 00:17:21,120 the documentation that the spanish 482 00:17:24,949 --> 00:17:22,400 military 483 00:17:26,549 --> 00:17:24,959 investigated the hell out of that case 484 00:17:29,430 --> 00:17:26,559 and there's a stack 485 00:17:31,350 --> 00:17:29,440 of of of real military documents and in 486 00:17:33,909 --> 00:17:31,360 those documents the military says 487 00:17:35,590 --> 00:17:33,919 all right this was an unidentified 488 00:17:37,750 --> 00:17:35,600 aerial phenomena like 489 00:17:39,830 --> 00:17:37,760 after everything we've researched it is 490 00:17:42,230 --> 00:17:39,840 completely baffling 491 00:17:43,510 --> 00:17:42,240 that and then added to that the fact 492 00:17:47,270 --> 00:17:43,520 that entities 493 00:17:50,310 --> 00:17:47,280 beings were seen inside the orb 494 00:17:52,390 --> 00:17:50,320 that's a difficult case for me because i 495 00:17:54,070 --> 00:17:52,400 can't outright dismiss it 496 00:17:56,310 --> 00:17:54,080 and there are a bunch i mean the water 497 00:17:58,870 --> 00:17:56,320 thing usos 498 00:18:00,150 --> 00:17:58,880 ufos originating from the water sources 499 00:18:02,870 --> 00:18:00,160 from the oceans 500 00:18:04,150 --> 00:18:02,880 that was new to me you know i understand 501 00:18:05,590 --> 00:18:04,160 a lot of ufologists 502 00:18:07,270 --> 00:18:05,600 it's not new to them because they've 503 00:18:10,070 --> 00:18:07,280 been in this for years 504 00:18:11,029 --> 00:18:10,080 but to me as a journalist i was like 505 00:18:13,190 --> 00:18:11,039 what 506 00:18:14,630 --> 00:18:13,200 you know like they're coming from the 507 00:18:17,510 --> 00:18:14,640 oceans 508 00:18:19,510 --> 00:18:17,520 you know so that episode our our episode 509 00:18:22,310 --> 00:18:19,520 about the oceans and the water was 510 00:18:23,590 --> 00:18:22,320 was just overwhelmingly mind-blowing to 511 00:18:24,950 --> 00:18:23,600 me 512 00:18:27,270 --> 00:18:24,960 and i've got a listener question on 513 00:18:29,029 --> 00:18:27,280 those lines later on about your usos 514 00:18:29,350 --> 00:18:29,039 episode that what that was a good one 515 00:18:35,590 --> 00:18:29,360 and 516 00:18:37,430 --> 00:18:35,600 i think again since 2017 in the us 517 00:18:38,310 --> 00:18:37,440 military and the navy playing such a big 518 00:18:40,150 --> 00:18:38,320 part in this 519 00:18:41,590 --> 00:18:40,160 it's made the mainstream media sit up 520 00:18:43,430 --> 00:18:41,600 and take notice and go 521 00:18:45,029 --> 00:18:43,440 ah so it's not just flying saucers 522 00:18:47,029 --> 00:18:45,039 coming from space we have 523 00:18:48,710 --> 00:18:47,039 other shaped objects potentially coming 524 00:18:51,110 --> 00:18:48,720 in the water as well 525 00:18:53,590 --> 00:18:51,120 now listen i would be amiss if i didn't 526 00:18:56,789 --> 00:18:53,600 mention your interview with eric davies 527 00:18:59,110 --> 00:18:56,799 um a man who is quite enigmatic himself 528 00:19:01,190 --> 00:18:59,120 um it caused quite a stir it still has 529 00:19:03,190 --> 00:19:01,200 the conversation going online 530 00:19:04,950 --> 00:19:03,200 i can imagine as i say that name 531 00:19:05,830 --> 00:19:04,960 somewhere joel murgia's ears have 532 00:19:08,070 --> 00:19:05,840 pricked up 533 00:19:10,310 --> 00:19:08,080 so i would encourage anyone who hasn't 534 00:19:11,110 --> 00:19:10,320 seen the the interview it's about 15 16 535 00:19:13,270 --> 00:19:11,120 minutes long 536 00:19:14,150 --> 00:19:13,280 check out on the basement office page 537 00:19:16,710 --> 00:19:14,160 however 538 00:19:18,470 --> 00:19:16,720 how long was the original interview with 539 00:19:21,669 --> 00:19:18,480 eric davies 540 00:19:21,990 --> 00:19:21,679 okay so from the time he logged in until 541 00:19:26,230 --> 00:19:22,000 the 542 00:19:29,270 --> 00:19:26,240 time he logged out around 58 minutes 543 00:19:32,150 --> 00:19:29,280 okay so why did we get 16 minutes so you 544 00:19:34,310 --> 00:19:32,160 didn't just get 16 minutes you got 545 00:19:36,710 --> 00:19:34,320 so in episode 7 of the basement office 546 00:19:39,510 --> 00:19:36,720 he's in episode 7 of the basement office 547 00:19:41,350 --> 00:19:39,520 and then we released and then after that 548 00:19:44,549 --> 00:19:41,360 i released 549 00:19:46,150 --> 00:19:44,559 however long it was 15 minutes extra of 550 00:19:49,669 --> 00:19:46,160 from the interview 551 00:19:52,710 --> 00:19:49,679 um the rest of it is sitting 552 00:19:54,230 -->

twitters twitterers uh some 688 00:24:46,710 --> 00:24:44,480 perspective 689 00:24:47,909 --> 00:24:46,720 the eric davis episode of the basement 690 00:24:50,070 --> 00:24:47,919 office the 691 00:24:51,669 --> 00:24:50,080 the bonus episode where it's just him 692 00:24:54,789 --> 00:24:51,679 and me talking 693 00:24:55,430 --> 00:24:54,799 is our least popular basement office 694 00:24:57,830 --> 00:24:55,440 episode 695 00:24:59,110 --> 00:24:57,840 in terms of views and engagement it is 696 00:25:02,549 --> 00:24:59,120 absolutely 697 00:25:04,470 --> 00:25:02,559 bottom it is the least uh successful 698 00:25:06,470 --> 00:25:04,480 episode we've ever released and so 699 00:25:07,750 --> 00:25:06,480 i understand that within a certain 700 00:25:10,070 --> 00:25:07,760 pocket 701 00:25:11,190 --> 00:25:10,080 um people might be super interested in 702 00:25:13,750 --> 00:25:11,200 what eric davis has 703 00:25:14,390 --> 00:25:13,760 but as for like the main audience of our 704 00:25:17,430 --> 00:25:14,400 show 705 00:25:17,830 --> 00:25:17,440 no one seems to care do you know what 706 00:25:19,990 --> 00:25:17,840 though 707 00:25:22,070 --> 00:25:20,000 i can get that and is there anything to 708 00:25:23,909 --> 00:25:22,080 do with algorithm on that because i 709 00:25:25,110 --> 00:25:23,919 searched for it earlier just to go back 710 00:25:27,029 --> 00:25:25,120 and watch it again 711 00:25:28,470 --> 00:25:27,039 and i typed in basement office and i 712 00:25:30,310 --> 00:25:28,480 think the first thing that came up was 713 00:25:31,190 --> 00:25:30,320 like episode 7 or episode 11 or 714 00:25:33,830 --> 00:25:31,200 something 715 00:25:34,470 --> 00:25:33,840 and it was hard to find that i had to go 716 00:25:35,750 --> 00:25:34,480 into 717 00:25:37,590 --> 00:25:35,760 basement office and go through the 718 00:25:39,669 --> 00:25:37,600 playlist to get it and 719 00:25:41,590 --> 00:25:39,679 in a day and age where people want stuff 720 00:25:42,950 --> 00:25:41,600 to come up bang straight away 721 00:25:45,269 --> 00:25:42,960 if they don't see it in the top couple 722 00:25:47,190 --> 00:25:45,279 of search results it can go a mess so 723 00:25:49,269 --> 00:25:47,200 i just don't want it to be downplayed 724 00:25:51,909 --> 00:25:49,279 how good you know those pieces are 725 00:25:52,710 --> 00:25:51,919 and how relevant they could be um i i 726 00:25:54,070 --> 00:25:52,720 think that can 727 00:25:56,149 --> 00:25:54,080 can definitely play a part in that 728 00:25:57,750 --> 00:25:56,159 especially with a younger generation 729 00:25:59,830 --> 00:25:57,760 yeah sure i think you know the search 730 00:26:02,870 --> 00:25:59,840 algorithm could play a part 731 00:26:05,990 --> 00:26:02,880 in it i mean but i 732 00:26:09,110 --> 00:26:06,000 uh just overall the basement office 733 00:26:10,870 --> 00:26:09,120 isn't that accessible there's 734 00:26:12,870 --> 00:26:10,880 you know it's in general it's like it 735 00:26:14,870 --> 00:26:12,880 doesn't have its own channel 736 00:26:15,990 --> 00:26:14,880 it doesn't have its own website it 737 00:26:18,470 --> 00:26:16,000 doesn't have its own 738 00:26:20,390 --> 00:26:18,480 streaming platform and so you do have to 739 00:26:21,990 --> 00:26:20,400 go look for it and that's something that 740 00:26:23,750 --> 00:26:22,000 you know i'm struggling with and trying 741 00:26:25,669 --> 00:26:23,760 to figure out but um 742 00:26:26,789 --> 00:26:25,679 yeah so i get that i get what you're 743 00:26:28,789 --> 00:26:26,799 saying 744 00:26:30,390 --> 00:26:28,799 yeah and listen you know what you touch 745 00:26:32,470 --> 00:26:30,400 on something and this this may be 746 00:26:34,390 --> 00:26:32,480 unpopular but i've mentioned this before 747 00:26:35,590 --> 00:26:34,400 and i'm always honest and i stick by 748 00:26:37,190 --> 00:26:35,600 this stuff that 749 00:26:39,190 --> 00:26:37,200 there's there's an entitlement from 750 00:26:41,430 --> 00:26:39,200 people especially online and i include 751 00:26:43,669 --> 00:26:41,440 myself in some of this as well that 752 00:26:45,269 --> 00:26:43,679 for example the uap task force went the 753 00:26:47,990 --> 00:26:45,279 the report when it dropped 754 00:26:49,750 --> 00:26:48,000 you get a an outpouring of why didn't 755 00:26:51,590 --> 00:26:49,760 they disclose everything they know 756 00:26:53,990 --> 00:26:51,600 we should know and it's like when you 757 00:26:56,070 --> 00:26:54,000 say we you mean ufo twitter 758 00:26:58,390 --> 00:26:56,080 that is like not point not not not not 759 00:27:00,470 --> 00:26:58,400 not one percent of the population 760 00:27:01,990 --> 00:27:00,480 no one's really paying attention i i 761 00:27:03,909 --> 00:27:02,000 know people like lou and chris melanie 762 00:27:05,669 --> 00:27:03,919 not talk about the impact and there will 763 00:27:08,470 --> 00:27:05,679 be some sort of impact 764 00:27:09,750 --> 00:27:08,480 from that social media but it's not huge 765 00:27:11,990 --> 00:27:09,760 you don't have the us 766 00:27:14,310 --> 00:27:12,000

that's not happening so 770 00:27:21,669 --> 00:27:19,600 there's definitely a time and a place 771 00:27:23,669 --> 00:27:21,679 for that kind of stuff so i i appreciate 772 00:27:26,310 -->

2019 and came up on my radar during my 785 00:27:58,470 --> 00:27:54,559 research 786 00:28:02,070 --> 00:27:58,480 for season one of 787 00:28:05,430 --> 00:28:02,080 uh the basement office and uh

yeah unacknowledged completely separate 810 00:28:59,750 --> 00:28:57,279 almost in the private sector 811 00:29:00,710 --> 00:28:59,760 from from even the president of the 812 00:29:02,870 -->

denies all of it and emphatically 832 00:29:52,950 --> 00:29:50,480 emotionally frustratingly uh 833 00:29:55,190 --> 00:29:52,960 denies it doesn't want to be caught up 834 00:29:59,029 --> 00:29:55,200 in this silly thing 835 00:30:00,870 --> 00:29:59,039 um okay so the former 836 00:30:02,310 --> 00:30:00,880 director of the defense intelligence 837 00:30:05,750 --> 00:30:02,320 agency

844 00:30:22,950 --> 00:30:19,360 can't find that person 845 00:30:26,310 --> 00:30:22,960 can't find someone 846 00:30:27,830 --> 00:30:26,320 of stature who is publicly claiming that 847 00:30:30,870 --> 00:30:27,840 the wilson davis notes 848 00:30:31,990 --> 00:30:30,880 are true so that's the wall i'm at right 849 00:30:35,350 --> 00:30:32,000 now that's the uh 850 00:30:37,190 --> 00:30:35,360 that's where i'm at so two things would 851 00:30:38,710 --> 00:30:37,200 do you find that unusual though i take 852 00:30:42,149 --> 00:30:38,720 it you would expect 853 00:30:44,230 --> 00:30:42,159 to s admiral wilson to deny 854 00:30:46,549 --> 00:30:44,240 the validity of the documents or were 855 00:30:49,029 --> 00:30:46,559 you not expecting that 856 00:30:50,070 -->

asked about the 885 00:31:55,909 --> 00:31:53,840 the notes in the documents before and 886 00:31:57,350 --> 00:31:55,919 what he said was that eric davis is 887 00:31:58,789 --> 00:31:57,360 almost incapable of lying 888 00:32:01,269 --> 00:31:58,799 it's not in his character it's not in 889 00:32:01,830 --> 00:32:01,279 his makeup and if eric davis says 890 00:32:03,669 --> 00:32:01,840 something 891 00:32:05,110 --> 00:32:03,679 you you should take that to the bank 892 00:32:05,430 --> 00:32:05,120 would you think there's any way that 893 00:32:08,310 --> 00:32:05,440 that 894 00:32:18,310 --> 00:32:08,320 is louis lozando you know by proxy 895 00:32:21,669 --> 00:32:20,870 it's a blanket statement i mean i 896 00:32:24,070 --> 00:32:21,679 there's 897 00:32:25,350 --> 00:32:24,080 i to speak to eric davis character i 898 00:32:29,029 --> 00:32:25,360 could print 899 00:32:30,230 --> 00:32:29,039 you know speaking to dr davis character 900 00:32:32,389 --> 00:32:30,240 lou elizondo 901 00:32:34,149 --> 00:32:32,399 says you know everything he says is true 902 00:32:35,269 --> 00:32:34,159 i would i would pay attention to 903 00:32:37,190 --> 00:32:35,279 whatever he says 904 00:32:39,509 --> 00:32:37,200 lou told me that eric davis is an 905 00:32:43,509 --> 00:32:39,519 american hero an american patriot 906 00:32:46,070 --> 00:32:43,519 um and i uh 907 00:32:47,990 --> 00:32:46,080 yeah i mean i can't outright say i don't 908 00:32:51,190 --> 00:32:48,000 believe that because i have no reason to 909 00:32:53,430 --> 00:32:51,200 i have no i have no solid reason to say 910 00:32:54,870 --> 00:32:53,440 i think lou's lying i think eric davis 911 00:32:57,269 --> 00:32:54,880 is lying 912 00:32:57,909 --> 00:32:57,279 or i think admiral wilson's lying i have 913 00:33:00,389 --> 00:32:57,919 no 914 00:33:01,669 --> 00:33:00,399 solid reason to do that yet but until i 915 00:33:05,029 --> 00:33:01,679 do 916 00:33:06,710 --> 00:33:05,039 i i can't release a 917 00:33:08,710 --> 00:33:06,720 a good story to the layman you have to 918 00:33:10,470 --> 00:33:08,720 understand that like probably 99 919 00:33:12,149 --> 00:33:10,480 of new york post readers don't know 920 00:33:14,549 --> 00:33:12,159 anything about ufos 921 00:33:15,430 --> 00:33:14,559 you know so in order to release that 922 00:33:18,870 --> 00:33:15,440 story i need to 923 00:33:20,710 --> 00:33:18,880 justify that story and usually the best 924 00:33:23,750 --> 00:33:20,720 journalistic way to do that is 925 00:33:24,789 --> 00:33:23,760 this person claims this but this person 926 00:33:27,990 --> 00:33:24,799 claims this 927 00:33:30,149 --> 00:33:28,000 i as a journalist took a look at both 928 00:33:31,669 --> 00:33:30,159 and here's what i found i just can't 929 00:33:34,070 --> 00:33:31,679 find that other side 930 00:33:36,070 --> 00:33:34,080 with wilson davis and that speaks to 931 00:33:38,310 --> 00:33:36,080 your journalistic integrity and that's 932 00:33:41,350 --> 00:33:38,320 that's the right way to do this but 933 00:33:42,149 --> 00:33:41,360 as someone so like me i'm biased and i 934 00:33:44,630 --> 00:33:42,159 want to believe 935 00:33:46,470 --> 00:33:44,640 the guy who's talking about ufos crash 936 00:33:48,070 --> 00:33:46,480 retrievals warp drives and 937 00:33:49,669 --> 00:33:48,080 everything else because that's the stuff 938 00:33:51,750 --> 00:33:49,679 i want to be true 939 00:33:53,190 --> 00:33:51,760 but i've still got to understand that 940 00:33:55,269 --> 00:33:53,200 there's a chance it may not be because 941 00:33:57,110 --> 00:33:55,279 there's no 100 percent proof and that's 942 00:33:57,990 --> 00:33:57,120 pretty much like this whole topic and 943 00:33:59,750 --> 00:33:58,000 subject 944 00:34:02,789 --> 00:33:59,760 can i ask you a question why why do you 945 00:34:06,070 --> 00:34:04,310 what eric davis says are what's within 946 00:34:07,909 --> 00:34:06,080 the notes because i want that to start 947 00:34:09,990 --> 00:34:07,919 to be that you know what yep 948 00:34:11,430 --> 00:34:10,000 we do have the crash retrieval programs 949 00:34:13,909 --> 00:34:11,440 we do have this 950 00:34:16,389 --> 00:34:13,919 i i can believe that but it's still that 951 00:34:18,550 --> 00:34:16,399 extra evidence 952 00:34:20,149 --> 00:34:18,560 i don't think we've got anyone smoking 953 00:34:20,710 --> 00:34:20,159 gun in this topic that we're never going 954 00:34:22,069 --> 00:34:20,720 to get 955 00:34:24,629 --> 00:34:22,079 i think and i've always said it's going 956 00:34:26,790 --> 00:34:24,639 to be a folder which is just 957 00:34:27,990 --> 00:34:26,800 a whole folder of evidence that's the 958 00:34:30,389 --> 00:34:28,000 more weight to it 959 00:34:32,069 --> 00:34:30,399 the more credibility it has um we're not 960 00:34:33,669 --> 00:34:32,079 going to get one picture i don't think 961 00:34:33,990 --> 00:34:33,679 if we get a black triangle coming out of 962 00:34:36,069 --> 00:34:34,000 the ocean 963 00:34:37,829 --> 00:34:36,079 that's going to prove anything because 964 00:34:39,750 --> 00:34:37,839 people and i've talked about this 965 00:34:42,710 --> 00:34:39,760 recently as well stephen that 966 00:34:43,990 --> 00:34:42,720 if i go out with my camera and 967

00:35:06,870 --> 00:35:04,480 claim to think they know about okay 977 00:35:08,470 --> 00:35:06,880 if i post that online and i say here's 978 00:35:11,430 --> 00:35:08,480 what's just flew above me

definitely 1054 00:37:47,990 --> 00:37:46,720 relevant you seem to have been quite 1055 00:37:50,790 --> 00:37:48,000 frustrated recently 1056 00:37:51,589 --> 00:37:50,800 uh at times online um you've been in a 1057 00:37:53,750 --> 00:37:51,599 few kind of 1058 00:37:54,790 --> 00:37:53,760 passionate debates with people and you 1059 00:37:56,710 --> 00:37:54,800 know i think 1060 00:37:57,829 --> 00:37:56,720 part of it from from some people's point 1061 00:38:00,790 --> 00:37:57,839 of view has been the 1062 00:38:02,470 --> 00:38:00,800 the lull post task force report where 1063 00:38:04,230 --> 00:38:02,480 some people are scrambling for something 1064 00:38:06,470 --> 00:38:04,240 to do or something to look at 1065 00:38:07,750 --> 00:38:06,480 and i sense you're getting a bit 1066 00:38:09,750 --> 00:38:07,760 frustrated 1067 00:38:11,670 --> 00:38:09,760 from that ufo twitter community the 1068 00:38:13,190 --> 00:38:11,680 social media side of things 1069 00:38:15,030 --> 00:38:13,200 is that wrong because a lot of people 1070 00:38:17,030 --> 00:38:15,040 seem to be accusing you of 1071 00:38:18,069 --> 00:38:17,040 of becoming quite skeptical all of a 1072 00:38:20,310 --> 00:38:18,079 sudden 1073 00:38:21,349 --> 00:38:20,320 i would say i'm getting kind of fed up 1074 00:38:23,670 --> 00:38:21,359 with all of it 1075 00:38:24,790 --> 00:38:23,680 in a way i mean not just ufo twitter but 1076 00:38:28,150 --> 00:38:24,800 like the media 1077 00:38:31,829 --> 00:38:28,160 he's just turned this into a circus 1078 00:38:32,550 --> 00:38:31,839 of just knee-jerk unvalidated who gives 1079 00:38:36,150 --> 00:38:32,560 a 1080 00:38:38,150 --> 00:38:36,160 you know 1081 00:38:39,750 --> 00:38:38,160 and there's no real journalism it's just 1082 00:38:43,109 --> 00:38:39,760 becoming 1083 00:38:43,910 --> 00:38:43,119 what ufos used to be and there still are 1084 00:38:47,270 --> 00:38:43,920 in my opinion 1085 00:38:49,270 --> 00:38:47,280 is fun ufos are fun 1086 00:38:51,030 --> 00:38:49,280 it's fun to think about it's fun to 1087 00:38:52,550 --> 00:38:51,040 think oh well if that's true that would 1088 00:38:55,910 --> 00:38:52,560 be so rad 1089 00:38:56,550 --> 00:38:55,920 and the media i mean the entertainment 1090 00:38:59,430 --> 00:38:56,560 industry 1091 00:39:01,750 --> 00:38:59,440 latches on to that and have for years 1092 00:39:04,790 --> 00:39:01,760 and i just see more of the same now 1093 00:39:06,950 --> 00:39:04,800 um there are brief pockets of like deep 1094 00:39:10,470 --> 00:39:06,960 journalism you know i think you know 1095 00:39:12,710 --> 00:39:10,480 um tim mcmillan at the at uh 1096 00:39:13,589 --> 00:39:12,720 the debrief uh john greenwald at the 1097 00:39:15,589 -->

that doesn't represent the 1104 00:39:31,589 --> 00:39:30,960 majority of what's out there right now 1105 00:39:35,349 --> 00:39:31,599 you've got 1106 00:39:38,630 --> 00:39:35,359 you know jeremy

one of the red flags for a journalist 1125 00:40:18,309 --> 00:40:15,280 like me is 1126 00:40:18,870 --> 00:40:18,319 if someone can't answer or refuses to 1127 00:40:22,550 --> 00:40:18,880 answer 1128 00:40:24,069 --> 00:40:22,560 a basic question it's a red flag 1129 00:40:26,150 --> 00:40:24,079 it's a red flag that they either don't 1130 00:40:29,349 --> 00:40:26,160 know or they're hiding something 1131 00:40:30,309 --> 00:40:29,359 um and when that same question goes 1132 00:40:33,910 --> 00:40:30,319 unanswered 1133 00:40:37,510 --> 00:40:33,920 to multiple groups you begin to realize 1134 00:40:38,390 --> 00:40:37,520 there's just nothing there um i grew up 1135 00:40:41,430 --> 00:40:38,400 uh 1136 00:40:43,829 --> 00:40:41,440 mormon in the mormon religion you know 1137

--> 00:40:49,200 because i started 1141 00:40:54,870 --> 00:40:53,119 asking basic very basic questions 1142 00:40:56,230 --> 00:40:54,880 like to people who should know the 1143 00:40:58,390 -->

as you started to 1207 00:42:59,349 --> 00:42:56,720 to talk if it was jeremy corbell was one 1208 00:43:01,349 --> 00:42:59,359 of those names that was frustrating you 1209 00:43:03,750 --> 00:43:01,359 because he has become a very divisive 1210 00:43:05,750 --> 00:43:03,760 character especially of late 1211 00:43:08,470 --> 00:43:05,760 and in the ufo community with the 1212 00:43:10,470 --> 00:43:08,480 instagram posts and hyping things up 1213 00:43:11,990 --> 00:43:10,480 i've i've shared before stephen and i 1214 00:43:15,510 --> 00:43:12,000 don't know if you see this that 1215 00:43:17,589 --> 00:43:15,520 jeremy corbell um is doing some work 1216 00:43:19,030 --> 00:43:17,599 as yet whether it's positive or negative 1217 00:43:21,270 --> 00:43:19,040 we can't quite tell 1218 00:43:22,069 --> 00:43:21,280 and and breaking it seems to be breaking 1219 00:43:25,030 --> 00:43:22,079 stories and 1220 00:43:27,910 --> 00:43:25,040 sharing leaked footage do you get a 1221 00:43:29,750 --> 00:43:27,920 sense that jeremy corbett as a character 1222 00:43:31,190 --> 00:43:29,760 is enjoying the niche that he is 1223 00:43:33,430 --> 00:43:31,200 managing to carve out 1224 00:43:35,030 --> 00:43:33,440 that he potentially could be the face of 1225 00:43:37,589 --> 00:43:35,040 this for tmz 1226 00:43:38,230 --> 00:43:37,599 because that's the type it seems that 1227 00:43:40,710 --> 00:43:38,240 you know when 1228 00:43:41,829 --> 00:43:40,720 when bob lazar goes on joe rogan it 1229 00:43:45,990 --> 00:43:41,839 becomes 1230 00:43:48,230 --> 00:43:46,000 wobbler jeremy corbell being interviewed 1231 00:43:49,910 --> 00:43:48,240 if you get what i'm getting at yeah you 1232 00:43:50,870 --> 00:43:49,920 know i don't want to speak to jeremy 1233 00:43:53,589 --> 00:43:50,880 corbell and look 1234 00:43:55,030 --> 00:43:53,599 jeremy does what he does like amazingly 1235 00:43:56,550 --> 00:43:55,040 i mean the proof is in the pudding when 1236 00:43:58,150 --> 00:43:56,560 it comes to jeremy corbell he does what 1237 00:44:01,829 --> 00:43:58,160 he does and he does it well 1238 00:44:03,510 --> 00:44:01,839 now i can't look i i uh 1239 00:44:05,190 --> 00:44:03,520 with this whole story i look at who's 1240 00:44:07,349 --> 00:44:05,200 saying what and who's the media 1241 00:44:07,990 --> 00:44:07,359 gravitating towards who's releasing the 1242 00:44:09,829 --> 00:44:08,000 information 1243 00:44:11,510 --> 00:44:09,839 where do they get it so obviously i have 1244 00:44:14,790 --> 00:44:11,520 to look at jeremy corbell 1245 00:44:15,109 --> 00:44:14,800 and at first i was like oh wow like this 1246 00:44:18,870 --> 00:44:15,119 is 1247 00:44:21,270 --> 00:44:18,880 shot by navy personnel 1248 00:44:23,670 --> 00:44:21,280 they're validating the source that it 1249 00:44:27,349 --> 00:44:23,680 came from the military 1250 00:44:30,069 --> 00:44:27,359 that's great but beyond that 1251 00:44:30,790 --> 00:44:30,079 uh they haven't said what it is the 1252 00:44:32,470 --> 00:44:30,800 pentagon has 1253 00:44:34,790 --> 00:44:32,480 said nothing they haven't even said if 1254 00:44:36,470 --> 00:44:34,800 it remains identified or unidentified 1255 00:44:38,230 --> 00:44:36,480 it very well could be within the halls 1256 00:44:39,270 --> 00:44:38,240 of the pentagon be identified they know 1257 00:44:42,630 --> 00:44:39,280 what it is 1258 00:44:45,349 --> 00:44:42,640 um but you've got people 1259 00:44:45,829 --> 00:44:45,359 like jeremy saying they know what it is 1260 00:44:49,910 --> 00:44:45,839 and 1261 00:44:51,910 --> 00:44:49,920 i was 1262 00:44:54,230 --> 00:44:51,920 on online and people were saying oh the 1263 00:44:57,430 --> 00:44:54,240 uss omaha those objects that are on this 1264 00:44:58,309 --> 00:44:57,440 jeremy's video they were summoned from 1265 00:45:01,510 --> 00:44:58,319 the ocean 1266 00:45:03,670 --> 00:45:01,520 beneath they were summoned by the navy 1267 00:45:05,349 --> 00:45:03,680 to reveal themselves and i'm just like 1268 00:45:08,790 --> 00:45:05,359 jesus christ 1269 00:45:10,950 --> 00:45:08,800 like no like we can't 1270 00:45:11,829 --> 00:45:10,960 dude i'm fine with that explanation but 1271 00:45:13,510 --> 00:45:11,839 we can't just 1272 00:45:15,510 --> 00:45:13,520 jump there we have to get there by 1273 00:45:16,550 --> 00:45:15,520 saying oh here's this and here's the 1274 00:45:18,470 --> 00:45:16,560 whistleblower and here's the 1275 00:45:21,670 --> 00:45:18,480 documentation and here's the uh 1276 00:45:23,750 --> 00:45:21,680 an another witness and and but 1277 00:45:24,950 --> 00:45:23,760 it's just a circus it's out of control 1278 00:45:31,990 --> 00:45:24,960 it's anarchy 1279 00:45:33,589 --> 00:45:32,000 when uh i'm fine with jeremy corbell 1280 00:45:34,309 --> 00:45:33,599 releasing this but that's where we 1281 00:45:36,069 --> 00:45:34,319 should stop 1282 00:45:38,550 --> 00:45:36,079 it's it's footage we don't know what it 1283 00:45:40,790 --> 00:45:38,560 is here's probably what it could be 1284 00:45:42,150 --> 00:45:40,800 the end that's that's all we know right 1285 00:45:44,390 --> 00:45:42,160 now to say anything 1286 00:45:45,510 --> 00:45:44,400 above and beyond that is ridiculous in 1287 00:45:48,150 --> 00:45:45,520 my opinion 1288 00:45:49,109 --> 00:45:48,160 yeah so you think it's a bit of a 1289 00:45:51,430 --> 00:45:49,119 byproduct 1290 00:45:53,430 --> 00:45:51,440 of we seem to be on a bit of a roller 1291 00:45:54,550 --> 00:45:53,440 coaster and the biggest peak we've got 1292 00:45:56,470 --> 00:45:54,560 to so far 1293 00:45:58,790 --> 00:45:56,480 was the the release of the task force 1294 00:46:00,230 --> 00:45:58,800 report and i think since then we've seen 1295 00:46:02,309 --> 00:46:00,240 it kind of slow steady 1296 00:46:03,910 --> 00:46:02,319 back downhill things have got a little 1297 00:46:05,990 --> 00:46:03,920 quieter some people have announced 1298 00:46:07,750 --> 00:46:06,000 they're taking breaks from social media 1299 00:46:09,910 --> 00:46:07,760 they're going to dip out of ufos for a 1300 00:46:12,069 --> 00:46:09,920 while all that kind of stuff because 1301 00:46:12,950 --> 00:46:12,079 it's such a big hype it's like you know 1302 00:46:15,349 --> 00:46:12,960 waiting for the 1303 00:46:16,710 --> 00:46:15,359 avengers endgame movie you you wait for 1304 00:46:18,150 --> 00:46:16,720 so long to see this film 1305 00:46:21,030 --> 00:46:18,160 and it's either what you want it to be 1306 00:46:24,630 --> 00:46:21,040 or it's not what you just said 1307 00:46:27,829 --> 00:46:24,640 perfect it is exactly 1308 00:46:30,550 --> 00:46:27,839 exactly like waiting for the final 1309 00:46:31,589 --> 00:46:30,560 avengers movie it is exactly like the 1310 00:46:34,550 --> 00:46:31,599 marvel movie 1311 00:46:35,990 --> 00:46:34,560 the the or you're at your star wars fans 1312 00:46:37,510 --> 00:46:36,000 your marvel fans 1313 00:46:39,750 --> 00:46:37,520 that's what they're waiting for and then 1314 00:46:40,390 --> 00:46:39,760 they're let down if spider-man doesn't 1315 00:46:42,870 --> 00:46:40,400 like 1316 00:46:44,309 --> 00:46:42,880 kill whoever or come back you know 1317 00:46:44,950 --> 00:46:44,319 they're like i thought spider-man was 1318 00:46:46,309 --> 00:46:44,960 going to do that 1319 00:46:49,030 --> 00:46:46,319 but you're talking about something 1320 00:46:51,349 --> 00:46:49,040 fictional that doesn't really exist 1321 00:46:53,270 --> 00:46:51,359 that only exists in your head because 1322 00:46:56,150 --> 00:46:53,280 you wish it to be true 1323 00:46:57,589 --> 00:46:56,160 and that doesn't make it true and like i 1324 00:47:00,790 --> 00:46:57,599 am trying 1325 00:47:03,670 --> 00:47:00,800 my damnedest online through asking 1326 00:47:04,230 --> 00:47:03,680 basic questions to get people to snap 1327 00:47:07,990 --> 00:47:04,240 out of it 1328 00:47:09,750 --> 00:47:08,000 and go okay what 1329 00:47:11,589 --> 00:47:09,760 what's really going on here what do we 1330 00:47:14,230 --> 00:47:11,599 really actually 1331 00:47:16,069 --> 00:47:14,240 know and it's my current opinion that 1332 00:47:18,550 --> 00:47:16,079 most of the ufo sightings 1333 00:47:19,589 --> 00:47:18,560 as of late including the off the east 1334 00:47:22,309 --> 00:47:19,599 coast 1335 00:47:25,190 --> 00:47:22,319 um in 2015 2014 there's highly 1336 00:47:27,190 --> 00:47:25,200 documented daily cases 1337 00:47:28,790 --> 00:47:27,200 are not extraordinary or not 1338 00:47:32,309 --> 00:47:28,800 otherworldly and i believe 1339 00:47:33,430 --> 00:47:32,319 they very well could be adversarial 1340 00:47:36,390 --> 00:47:33,440 spycraft 1341 00:47:37,829 --> 00:47:36,400 right over our airspace and nothing and 1342 00:47:40,230 --> 00:47:37,839 no one is screaming 1343 00:47:41,510 --> 00:47:40,240 about it no one no one's covering it no 1344 00:47:44,790 --> 00:47:41,520 one's talking about it 1345 00:47:46,790 --> 00:47:44,800 the the pentagon is lucky 1346 00:47:47,829 --> 00:47:46,800 so lucky that everyone's talking about 1347 00:47:50,309 --> 00:47:47,839 aliens 1348 00:47:51,510 --> 00:47:50,319 because if in my if it was russia and it 1349 00:47:53,030 --> 00:47:51,520 was china 1350 00:47:54,950 --> 00:47:53,040 that'd be their fault that'd be a 1351 00:47:57,270 --> 00:47:54,960 failure of intelligence you know 1352 00:47:58,549 --> 00:47:57,280 potentially eclipsing 911 and right 1353 00:48:00,630 --> 00:47:58,559 there on our shores 1354 00:48:02,790 --> 00:48:00,640 they're lucky everyone's talking about 1355 00:48:04,870 --> 00:48:02,800 intergalactic spacecraft 1356 00:48:05,910 --> 00:48:04,880 yeah and i don't doubt that from from a 1357 00:48:07,270 --> 00:48:05,920 military point of view 1358 00:48:09,109 --> 00:48:07,280 you're absolutely spot on that that 1359 00:48:10,950 --> 00:48:09,119 would be a huge failure for for a 1360 00:48:12,950 --> 00:48:10,960 military with what two trillion dollar 1361 00:48:14,390 --> 00:48:12,960 budget or whatever the the us military's 1362 00:48:17,670 --> 00:48:14,400 defense budget is 1363 00:48:20,069 --> 00:48:17,680 um it's it would be a massive failing on 1364 00:48:22,710 --> 00:48:20,079 their part and embarrassing as well 1365 00:48:24,390 --> 00:48:22,720 but i i don't doubt that some of these 1366 00:48:26,710 --> 00:48:24,400 sightings or experiences 1367 00:48:28,710 --> 00:48:26,720 are adversarial tech and you know what i 1368 00:48:31,510 --> 00:48:28,720 couldn't write off it still being 1369 00:48:33,030 --> 00:48:31,520 sometimes us tech because you know when 1370 00:48:35,190 --> 00:48:33,040 people say the us government wouldn't 1371 00:48:37,030 --> 00:48:35,200 test its own stuff on its own people 1372 00:48:38,309 --> 00:48:37,040 i think any government pretty much is 1373 00:48:41,510 --> 00:48:38,319 guilty of that as well so 1374 00:48:42,950 --> 00:48:41,520 you can't write it off however 1375 00:48:45,510 --> 00:48:42,960 that's a lot of stuff i do want to come 1376 00:48:47,349 --> 00:48:45,520 back in on that stephen 1377 00:48:49,109 --> 00:48:47,359 you can you're gonna ask a follow-up i 1378 00:48:51,589 --> 00:48:49,119 could come back in on it 1379 00:48:53,430 --> 00:48:51,599 i i'm gonna go off that so if you want 1380 00:48:55,990 --> 00:48:53,440 to come back 1381 00:48:58,390 --> 00:48:56,000 one more thing jeremy inadvertently said 1382 00:49:02,150 --> 00:48:58,400 something on twitter that i agreed with 1383 00:49:03,910 --> 00:49:02,160 100 and i was so glad he said it but i 1384 00:49:06,230 --> 00:49:03,920 think he couched it in a different way 1385 00:49:10,069 --> 00:49:06,240 than i would but i agreed with it 1386 00:49:13,589 --> 00:49:10,079 when it comes to the us omaha 1387 00:49:16,549 --> 00:49:13,599 footage about the swarm of ufos 1388 00:49:17,589 --> 00:49:16,559 i would call drones jeremy said these 1389 00:49:21,430 --> 00:49:17,599 objects 1390 00:49:23,589 --> 00:49:21,440 to be seen they were announcing 1391 00:49:26,470 --> 00:49:23,599 themselves and wanted to be seen 1392 00:49:27,510 --> 00:49:26,480 and that is true i agree with that a 1393 00:49:31,270 --> 00:49:27,520 hundred percent 1394 00:49:33,270 --> 00:49:31,280 without doubt uh because mike 1395 00:49:34,390 --> 00:49:33,280 without doubt uh according to my current 1396 00:49:37,510 --> 00:49:34,400 theory because 1397 00:49:39,190 --> 00:49:37,520 uh how historically 1398 00:49:41,030 --> 00:49:39,200 and this is historically prince said in 1399 00:49:41,990 --> 00:49:41,040 it if you look up the cia's project 1400 00:49:45,430 --> 00:49:42,000 palladium over 1401 00:49:46,870 --> 00:49:45,440 cuba in the 1960s the us launched 1402 00:49:49,910 --> 00:49:46,880 balloons 1403 00:49:52,309 --> 00:49:49,920 returns 1404 00:49:54,390 --> 00:49:52,319 the cubans and russians pinged those 1405 00:49:57,190 --> 00:49:54,400 balloons ping ping ping 1406 00:49:58,710 --> 00:49:57,200 and the us because of that were able to 1407 00:50:01,030 --> 00:49:58,720 um 1408 00:50:02,710 --> 00:50:01,040 observe collect information on their 1409 00:50:05,109 --> 00:50:02,720 electronic intelligence 1410 00:50:06,150 --> 00:50:05,119 where their weaknesses were where the 1411 00:50:08,150 --> 00:50:06,160 where they could uh 1412 00:50:09,510 --> 00:50:08,160 hide a spy plane and because of that 1413 00:50:13,670 --> 00:50:09,520 they were able to fly the 1414 00:50:15,829 --> 00:50:13,680 a12 ox cart which later became the sr-71 1415 00:50:17,430 --> 00:50:15,839 you know over cuba because they received 1416 00:50:20,150 --> 00:50:17,440 that information 1417 00:50:21,030 --> 00:50:20,160 they made they announced themselves this 1418 00:50:23,589 --> 00:50:21,040 is how you collect 1419 00:50:24,390 --> 00:50:23,599 electronic uh intelligence is you make 1420 00:50:27,510 --> 00:50:24,400 yourself known 1421 00:50:28,470 --> 00:50:27,520 and you make that ship ping you with 1422 00:50:30,790 --> 00:50:28,480 radar and x 1423 00:50:33,430 --> 00:50:30,800 electro optical and everything and that 1424 00:50:36,309 --> 00:50:33,440 and that payload is just absorbing 1425 00:50:37,109 --> 00:50:36,319 all of that and all that top secret 1426 00:50:39,750 --> 00:50:37,119 electronic 1427 00:50:41,589 --> 00:50:39,760 intelligence is very useful to an 1428 00:50:43,270 --> 00:50:41,599 adversary okay here's how they ping us 1429 00:50:45,510 --> 00:50:43,280 here's their reaction time 1430 00:50:47,829 --> 00:50:45,520 oh they upgraded their x y and z we know 1431 00:50:49,349 --> 00:50:47,839 that now we know their weaknesses now 1432 00:50:51,270 --> 00:50:49,359 they want to announce themselves they 1433 00:50:52,390 --> 00:50:51,280 want to be right there over the ship 1434 00:50:55,109 --> 00:50:52,400 because they're going to be paying so i 1435 00:50:56,790 --> 00:50:55,119 agree with jeremy they want to be seen 1436 00:50:58,309 --> 00:50:56,800 yeah and again like you say when it's 1437 00:50:59,990 --> 00:50:58,319 data collection like that from an 1438 00:51:01,670 --> 00:51:00,000 adversarial point of view i'm sure the 1439 00:51:04,710 --> 00:51:01,680 yeah the us do it the russians do it the 1440 00:51:06,549 --> 00:51:04,720 chinese do it other militaries do it 1441 00:51:08,069 --> 00:51:06,559 the more engagement the more information 1442 00:51:10,470 --> 00:51:08,079 they get back from that as well so it's 1443 00:51:13,109 --> 00:51:10,480 best just to observe as much as possible 1444 00:51:14,069 --> 00:51:13,119 now moving on from that you recently met 1445 00:51:17,589 --> 00:51:14,079 up with some of the 1446 00:51:19,589 --> 00:51:17,599 the

up there and you know 1474 00:52:15,910 --> 00:52:14,079 i missed kevin day by just a few hours 1475 00:52:17,430 --> 00:52:15,920 he was gone but gary was there and it 1476 00:52:20,150 --> 00:52:17,440 was great to talk to gary 1477 00:52:21,990 --> 00:52:20,160 and these guys you know uapx has been 1478 00:52:25,270 --> 00:52:22,000 around for a while but 1479 00:52:25,910 --> 00:52:25,280 they've invested in tech like real data 1480 00:52:32,069 --> 00:52:25,920 collection 1481 00:52:36,309 --> 00:52:32,079 whether it be like gamma geiger 1482 00:52:39,109 --> 00:52:36,319 flear various radio waves 1483 00:52:39,990 --> 00:52:39,119 and they go around jeremy actually if 1484 00:52:42,470 --> 00:52:40,000 you look at 1485 00:52:44,470 --> 00:52:42,480 jeremy's uh twitter account he actually 1486 00:52:47,430 --> 00:52:44,480 has like a mobile 1487 00:52:48,870 --> 00:52:47,440 truck and this truck is osiris osiris 1488 00:52:50,470 --> 00:52:48,880 and it's like equipped with all this 1489 00:52:52,950 --> 00:52:50,480 great stuff and 1490 00:52:54,790 --> 00:52:52,960 and all it does is just collect raw data 1491 00:52:56,710 --> 00:52:54,800 and most of that raw data is either 1492 00:52:59,829 --> 00:52:56,720 empty or prosaic 1493 00:53:02,470 --> 00:52:59,839 but you know as you could see from 1494 00:53:03,510 --> 00:53:02,480 their past investigations sometimes they 1495 00:53:06,710 --> 00:53:03,520 get pinged 1496 00:53:09,990 --> 00:53:06,720 they find something that they can't 1497 00:53:11,109 --> 00:53:10,000 really identify and what was great was 1498 00:53:15,030 --> 00:53:11,119 just 1499 00:53:17,349 --> 00:53:15,040 of the tic tac 1500 00:53:18,069 --> 00:53:17,359 like who saw the tic tac with their eyes 1501 00:53:21,190 --> 00:53:18,079 like i'm 1502 00:53:23,910 --> 00:53:21,200 standing face to face with someone and 1503 00:53:25,190 --> 00:53:23,920 you can when i talk to someone and 1504 00:53:26,230 --> 00:53:25,200 they're talking to me and i'm looking at 1505 00:53:27,829 --> 00:53:26,240 them 1506 00:53:29,270 --> 00:53:27,839 i've been doing this for decades i can 1507 00:53:31,030 --> 00:53:29,280 gauge if someone is 1508 00:53:32,790 --> 00:53:31,040 pushing the boundaries embellishing or 1509 00:53:35,670 --> 00:53:32,800 something and like you know 1510 00:53:37,190 --> 00:53:35,680 talking to gary jason jeremy like i just 1511 00:53:39,910 --> 00:53:37,200 don't get that impression they're just 1512 00:53:41,349 --> 00:53:39,920 they're you know level-headed and and 1513 00:53:44,230 --> 00:53:41,359 focused on 1514 00:53:45,750 --> 00:53:44,240 on just the raw data anyway i can't get 1515 00:53:47,750 --> 00:53:45,760 into specifics because 1516 00:53:48,790 --> 00:53:47,760 i um because i don't want to speak for 1517 00:53:52,630 --> 00:53:48,800 them but 1518 00:53:55,430 --> 00:53:52,640 i i i will say that's what they do 1519 00:53:56,230 --> 00:53:55,440 they collect raw data and every once in 1520 00:53:58,150 --> 00:53:56,240 a while 1521 00:53:59,910 --> 00:53:58,160 they get something weird and they get 1522 00:54:02,950 --> 00:53:59,920 something strange 1523 00:54:06,390 --> 00:54:02,960 and to to 1524 00:54:09,349 --> 00:54:06,400 absorb that visually 1525 00:54:11,510 --> 00:54:09,359 from raw data is something else there 1526 00:54:14,230 --> 00:54:11,520 was no filter a media company a 1527 00:54:15,109 --> 00:54:14,240 a talking head didn't present that to me 1528 00:54:18,870 --> 00:54:15,119 just just 1529 00:54:21,910 --> 00:54:18,880 just to see the general raw data is 1530 00:54:23,589 --> 00:54:21,920 it's cool it's awesome can i just ask 1531 00:54:23,990 --> 00:54:23,599 then you can't go into detail which i 1532 00:54:26,309 --> 00:54:24,000 totally 1533 00:54:27,190 --> 00:54:26,319 respect and appreciate for comparison 1534 00:54:28,870 --> 00:54:27,200 though 1535 00:54:30,230 --> 00:54:28,880 what would the difference be between the 1536 00:54:33,030 --> 00:54:30,240 raw data you've seen 1537 00:54:34,390 --> 00:54:33,040 that you've obviously you know really 1538 00:54:37,109 --> 00:54:34,400 been intrigued by 1539 00:54:39,109 --> 00:54:37,119 and the the videos that corbell has 1540 00:54:41,349 --> 00:54:39,119 released with the radar and 1541 00:54:43,349 --> 00:54:41,359 what's what's been different to this raw 1542 00:54:46,470 --> 00:54:43,359 data from the apx that you feel 1543 00:54:51,430 --> 00:54:46,480 is more substantiated 1544 00:54:58,470 --> 00:54:55,430 it didn't go from a cell phone 1545 00:55:02,150 --> 00:54:58,480 to someone else's computer 1546 00:55:05,030 --> 00:55:02,160 to an email to an instagram account 1547 00:55:05,349 --> 00:55:05,040 to here's what this
