pretty um anti-climatic 89 00:03:27,509 --> 00:03:26,239 i i was uh 90 00:03:29,509 --> 00:03:27,519 when i was growing up there was an old 91 00:03:31,430 --> 00:03:29,519 oil refinery that was out on the west 92 00:03:33,270 --> 00:03:31,440 side of town and and my window in my 93 00:03:35,509 --> 00:03:33,280 bedroom overlooked that 94 00:03:37,190 --> 00:03:35,519 and i was up late i mean it was late for 95 00:03:37,990 --> 00:03:37,200 a kid it was probably like 11 or 12 at 96 00:03:39,670 --> 00:03:38,000 night 97 00:03:42,949 --> 00:03:39,680 and i looked out the window and i saw 98 00:03:45,270 --> 00:03:42,959 this big gorgeous beautiful orange moon 99 00:03:47,509 --> 00:03:45,280 just out there on the horizon above the 100 00:03:48,869 --> 00:03:47,519 the refinery i mean it looked identical 101 00:03:50,710 --> 00:03:48,879 to the moon 102 00:03:52,390 --> 00:03:50,720 um but it i mean it was just gorgeous 103 00:03:54,229 --> 00:03:52,400 and it was just out there hovering but 104 00:03:56,630 --> 00:03:54,239 it wasn't a full moon it was like it was 105 00:03:59,589 --> 00:03:56,640 like a half moon but it instead of 106 00:04:01,670 --> 00:03:59,599 it was like on its it was scooped kind 107 00:04:03,509 --> 00:04:01,680 of like a bowl i guess sitting there out 108 00:04:05,030 --> 00:04:03,519 on the horizon 109 00:04:06,550 --> 00:04:05,040 and uh 110 00:04:08,390 --> 00:04:06,560 it it was 111 00:04:09,990 --> 00:04:08,400 big enough and beautiful enough that i 112 00:04:11,910 --> 00:04:10,000 it definitely caught my attention i 113 00:04:14,229 --> 00:04:11,920 looked at it i thought wow but then i 114 00:04:15,670 --> 00:04:14,239 went about my business and and 115 00:04:17,349 --> 00:04:15,680 i don't remember if i was cleaning up my 116 00:04:18,870 --> 00:04:17,359 room or what i was doing but when i 117 00:04:20,949 --> 00:04:18,880 finished 118 00:04:22,390 --> 00:04:20,959 i looked back out the window to see if i 119 00:04:24,070 --> 00:04:22,400 could get one more look at the moon 120 00:04:26,150 --> 00:04:24,080 before i went to bed 121 00:04:27,749 --> 00:04:26,160 and it wasn't there and it was low 122 00:04:29,670 --> 00:04:27,759 enough on the horizon like it was just 123 00:04:31,590 --> 00:04:29,680 out there kind of above the refinery 124 00:04:33,909 --> 00:04:31,600 that i just assumed that it had dropped 125 00:04:35,110 --> 00:04:33,919 over the horizon or you know it's just 126 00:04:37,110 --> 00:04:35,120 out of sight 127 00:04:39,030 --> 00:04:37,120 and didn't think anything else of it and 128 00:04:40,390 --> 00:04:39,040 the next morning when i got up i was 129 00:04:42,070 --> 00:04:40,400 telling my mom 130 00:04:43,510 --> 00:04:42,080 um you know i got up and i was like man 131

134 00:04:51,510 --> 00:04:49,360 a moon last night oh yeah there was i 135 00:04:55,110 --> 00:04:51,520 saw it it was above the refinery 136 00:04:56,870 --> 00:04:55,120 and uh so we we had a calendar you know 137 00:04:58,469 --> 00:04:56,880 hanging there close and we looked at it 138 00:05:01,029 --> 00:04:58,479 and it was actually 139 00:05:02,469 --> 00:05:01,039 that night there was not a moon so 140 00:05:04,230 --> 00:05:02,479 i don't know what i saw out there 141 00:05:06,550 --> 00:05:04,240 hanging above the refinery but it 142 00:05:09,189 --> 00:05:06,560 definitely was not the moon and that was 143 00:05:11,990 --> 00:05:09,199 my first uh time of 144 00:05:13,909 --> 00:05:12,000 seeing an unidentified object i have no 145 00:05:15,909 --> 00:05:13,919 idea what it

152 00:05:30,310 --> 00:05:27,199 yeah so uh 153 00:05:31,990 --> 00:05:30,320 i haven't gone far in life um i live i 154 00:05:33,830 --> 00:05:32,000 actually lived just across the field 155 00:05:37,189 --> 00:05:33,840 from where i grew up so 156 00:05:38,390 --> 00:05:37,199 i i live about 40 acres away from 157 00:05:40,550 --> 00:05:38,400 where my 158 00:05:43,110 --> 00:05:40,560 childhood home was and 159 00:05:45,830 --> 00:05:43,120 the whole unit basin has been a very big 160 00:05:48,070 --> 00:05:45,840 hotbed of ufo sightings and 161 00:05:49,510 --> 00:05:48,080 objects and anyone that's lived here for 162 00:05:51,270 --> 00:05:49,520 a number of years 163 00:05:52,950 --> 00:05:51,280 you'll find that there's a high 164 00:05:55,029 --> 00:05:52,960 percentage of people that have their own 165 00:05:58,950 --> 00:05:55,039 stories to share of 166 00:06:00,790 --> 00:05:58,960 uh unidentified objects up in the air 167 00:06:02,390 --> 00:06:00,800 and we've had many others over the years 168 00:06:04,790 --> 00:06:02,400 and obviously it's came to a point where 169 00:06:07,350 --> 00:06:04,800 skin walker ranches it's grown arms and 170 00:06:09,990 --> 00:06:07,360 legs uh over the time with its myth and 171 00:06:12,150 --> 00:06:10,000 its history and it's now culminated in a 172 00:06:14,870 --> 00:06:12,160 series one and soon to be series two of 173 00:06:16,790 --> 00:06:14,880 a very very popular show so something 174 00:06:18,870 --> 00:06:16,800 that one of the listeners sorry i had 175 00:06:20,390 --> 00:06:18,880 asked uh what exactly is your kind of 176 00:06:22,790 --> 00:06:20,400 educational background so as a child 177 00:06:25,029 --> 00:06:22,800 you've had this ufo sighting you then go 178 00:06:26,469 --> 00:06:25,039 to school college whatever and you have 179 00:06:27,590 --> 00:06:26,479 a career path that's led you to where 180 00:06:29,110 --> 00:06:27,600 you are now can you just tell us a 181 00:06:30,629 --> 00:06:29,120 little bit about that 182 00:06:31,670 --> 00:06:30,639 sure absolutely 183 00:06:32,550 --> 00:06:31,680 um 184 00:06:35,430 --> 00:06:32,560 so 185 00:06:37,350 --> 00:06:35,440 i'm kind of uh i've got my fingers into 186 00:06:39,830 --> 00:06:37,360 a lot of different areas 187 00:06:42,230 --> 00:06:39,840 uh my i started off 188 00:06:44,469 --> 00:06:42,240 uh in construction so i went to college 189 00:06:45,350 --> 00:06:44,479 for construction management 190 00:06:47,350 --> 00:06:45,360 so 191 00:06:48,950 --> 00:06:47,360 i got my contractor's license when i was 192 00:06:50,230 --> 00:06:48,960 like 23 and 193 00:06:52,390 --> 00:06:50,240 you know the requirements for 194 00:06:54,309 --> 00:06:52,400 contractors license varies even across 195 00:06:56,469 --> 00:06:54,319 the united states different states have 196 00:06:58,390 --> 00:06:56,479 different requirements and so in some 197 00:06:59,589 --> 00:06:58,400 states that's not a very big deal but in 198 00:07:02,469 --> 00:06:59,599 utah 199 00:07:04,550 --> 00:07:02,479 it actually takes a lot of work and 200 00:07:05,990 --> 00:07:04,560 it takes at least four years before a 201 00:07:07,830 --> 00:07:06,000 person can get 202 00:07:09,510 --> 00:07:07,840 their contractor's license it's kind of 203 00:07:11,110 --> 00:07:09,520 the equivalent of having a bachelor's 204 00:07:11,909 --> 00:07:11,120 degree in some ways because you have to 205 00:07:14,309 --> 00:07:11,919 work 206 00:07:16,309 --> 00:07:14,319 four years full time under a licensed 207 00:07:18,870 --> 00:07:16,319 contractor you have to take several 208 00:07:20,150 --> 00:07:18,880 state tests and pass them in order to 209 00:07:21,830 --> 00:07:20,160 get this so 210 00:07:24,230 --> 00:07:21,840 for me it was a big achievement to be 211 00:07:26,150 --> 00:07:24,240 able to get this at the age of 23 and 212 00:07:27,830 --> 00:07:26,160 then i started building 213 00:07:30,309 --> 00:07:27,840 i didn't just want to build any homes i 214 00:07:31,029 --> 00:07:30,319 wanted to build the biggest best homes 215 00:07:34,629 --> 00:07:31,039 and 216 00:07:37,110

00:07:49,440 the ranch was uh 223 00:07:53,830 --> 00:07:51,840 2008 when we had a recession here in the 224 00:07:56,150 --> 00:07:53,840 united states and i think it was pretty 225 00:07:58,230 --> 00:07:56,160 much worldwide construction became very 226 00:08:00,950 --> 00:07:58,240 hard because people couldn't get loans 227 00:08:03,350 --> 00:08:00,960 and especially the clients that i was 228 00:08:05,589 --> 00:08:03,360 specifically dealing with uh high-end 229 00:08:07,189 --> 00:08:05,599 homes that were you know costing 230 00:08:08,629 --> 00:08:07,199 hundreds of thousands of

the sherman family and mr bigelow was 281 00:09:50,150 --> 00:09:48,160 when i was in high school and so it was 282 00:09:51,829 --> 00:09:50,160 kind of the height of all this activity 283 00:09:53,030 --> 00:09:51,839 that was taking place 284 00:09:54,870 --> 00:09:53,040 and uh 285 00:09:57,030 --> 00:09:54,880 and so you know in high school we tried 286 00:09:59,030 --> 00:09:57,040 to sneak out there as kids and and try 287 00:10:01,190 --> 00:09:59,040 to sneak onto the property and 288 00:10:02,630 --> 00:10:01,200 so when jim said 289 00:10:05,509 --> 00:10:02,640 uh 290 00:10:07,190 --> 00:10:05,519 skin walk match i immediately had my he 291 00:10:08,790 --> 00:10:07,200 had my interest and he said 292 00:10:10,230 --> 00:10:08,800 you know being a contractor would

found the property to be in a 302 00:10:30,790 --> 00:10:28,880 state of disrepair um it appears that mr 303 00:10:32,870 --> 00:10:30,800 bigelow had not spent any money on it 304 00:10:35,110 --> 00:10:32,880 for several years and it let it 305 00:10:36,150 --> 00:10:35,120 kind of fall into disrepair 306 00:10:38,550 --> 00:10:36,160 and so 307 00:10:41,110 --> 00:10:38,560 i immediately made

and fugal like that is brandon 626 00:21:53,350 --> 00:21:50,960 fugle that's not acting like he 627 00:21:55,510 --> 00:21:53,360 uh what what can i say he eats his 628 00:21:57,510 --> 00:21:55,520 up he just 629 00:22:00,149 --> 00:21:57,520 he loves his stuff it's what he's grown 630 00:22:03,350 --> 00:22:00,159 up in and so that's not brandon acting 631 00:22:05,830 --> 00:22:03,360 like that is really brandon he he's very 632 00:22:08,390 --> 00:22:05,840 um he he's just a great person to be 633 00:22:09,590 --> 00:22:08,400 around he's very open very transparent 634 00:22:12,470 --> 00:22:09,600 um 635 00:22:13,990 --> 00:22:12,480 and very caring i watch 636 00:22:15,750 --> 00:22:14,000 people have no idea how much brandon 637 00:22:18,470 --> 00:22:15,760 does for those people around him he's a 638 00:22:20,630 --> 00:22:18,480 very caring human being 639 00:22:22,230 --> 00:22:20,640 and he he 640 00:22:24,549 --> 00:22:22,240 he's a good guy i can't say enough good 641 00:22:25,990 --> 00:22:24,559 about brandon but his intentions here is 642 00:22:28,070 --> 00:22:26,000 purely to get to the bottom of this 643 00:22:30,470 --> 00:22:28,080 mystery and try to figure it out 644 00:22:33,110 --> 00:22:30,480 and uh to be very transparent about it 645 00:22:34,470 --> 00:22:33,120 he doesn't have an agenda 646 00:22:36,710 --> 00:22:34,480 yeah and i think something that comes 647 00:22:38,950 --> 00:22:36,720 across with brandon and just it's very 648 00:22:41,110 --> 00:22:38,960 factual whether you like him or not 649 00:22:42,950 --> 00:22:41,120 he doesn't have to do this he has put 650 00:22:44,870 --> 00:22:42,960 his own money into this 651 00:22:46,870 --> 00:22:44,880 this is not a money-making scheme 652 00:22:48,470 --> 00:22:46,880 because i think anyone who's in the ufo 653 00:22:50,710 --> 00:22:48,480 community there are very few people who 654 00:22:52,870 --> 00:22:50,720 make money from it this is a guy who's 655 00:22:55,029 --> 00:22:52,880 got enough money and as you see enough 656 00:22:57,029 --> 00:22:55,039 other projects that this is definitely a 657 00:22:58,470 --> 00:22:57,039 labor of love for them as well 658 00:22:59,990 --> 00:22:58,480 and something i think obviously 659 00:23:01,990 --> 00:23:00,000 brandon's came out in most of our lives 660 00:23:04,470 --> 00:23:02,000 through the show like yourself 661 00:23:05,830 --> 00:23:04,480 and until you appear on the show and we 662 00:23:08,710 --> 00:23:05,840 get to know you that's when you start 663 00:23:10,470 --> 00:23:08,720 existing for most people so was that 664 00:23:13,350 --> 00:23:10,480 meeting with brandon am i right insane 665 00:23:15,669 --> 00:23:13,360 around 2017 666 00:23:17,990 --> 00:23:15,679 uh so i think that my first meeting with 667 00:23:20,070 --> 00:23:18,000 him would have been like either april or 668 00:23:21,510 --> 00:23:20,080 may of 2016. 669 00:23:24,149 --> 00:23:21,520 okay so 670 00:23:26,230 --> 00:23:24,159 for for me your your life or existence 671 00:23:28,230 --> 00:23:26,240 came into being around at the start of 672 00:23:29,909 --> 00:23:28,240 this year but this tv tells me that no 673 00:23:31,590 --> 00:23:29,919 no this was last summer 674 00:23:33,669 --> 00:23:31,600 what were you doing then from that 675 00:23:35,270 --> 00:23:33,679 meeting with brandon until we saw you on 676 00:23:38,710 --> 00:23:35,280 the screens because you clearly had a 677 00:23:40,070 --> 00:23:38,720 job an important job on the ranch 678 00:23:41,909 --> 00:23:40,080 yeah so 679 00:23:45,750 --> 00:23:41,919 um like i said the property was in 680 00:23:45,760 --> 00:23:48,789 mr bigelow 681 00:23:52,950 --> 00:23:50,390 you know we we know very little about 682 00:23:55,269 --> 00:23:52,960 what mr bigelow did or did not do during 683 00:23:56,149 --> 00:23:55,279 his time on skinwalker ranch he it's 684 00:23:59,190 --> 00:23:56,159 still 685 00:24:00,630 --> 00:23:59,200 uh locked away behind uh 686 00:24:02,630 --> 00:24:00,640 you know it's 687 00:24:05,269 --> 00:24:02,640 it's still hidden and he hasn't come 688 00:24:07,750 --> 00:24:05,279 forth with any information and 689 00:24:09,990 --> 00:24:07,760 in turning over the ranch to brandon the 690 00:24:11,750 --> 00:24:10,000 only thing that brandon received when he 691 00:24:13,990 --> 00:24:11,760 purchased the ranch was the real estate 692 00:24:16,789 --> 00:24:14,000 documents that are required by law you 693 00:24:19,190 --> 00:24:16,799 know soils tests and some of the things 694 00:24:20,710 --> 00:24:19,200 that prove that the property is 695 00:24:24,230 --> 00:24:20,720 there's no nothing dangerous on the 696 00:24:27,350 --> 00:24:24,240 property as far as radioactive or 697 00:24:29,590 --> 00:24:27,360 you're in utah real estate disclosures 698 00:24:30,470 --> 00:24:29,600 require that you disclose you know if 699 00:24:31,750 --> 00:24:30,480 there's something wrong with the 700 00:24:34,070 --> 00:24:31,760 property you're supposed to disclose it 701 00:24:35,029 --> 00:24:34,080 to the buyers so there was those type of 702 00:24:36,310 --> 00:24:35,039 things 703 00:24:38,149 --> 00:24:36,320 um but 704 00:24:42,310 --> 00:24:38,159 there was no scientific data that was 705 00:24:43,669 --> 00:24:42,320 turned over nothing and when we came on 706 00:24:45,190 --> 00:24:43,679 it was hard to tell that there had been 707 00:24:46,789 --> 00:24:45,200 a scientific 708 00:24:48,710 --> 00:24:46,799 uh effort at all 709 00:24:50,310 --> 00:24:48,720 and so we we basically started from 710 00:24:51,909 --> 00:24:50,320 scratch 711 00:24:53,190 --> 00:24:51,919 brandon's 712 00:24:54,310 --> 00:24:53,200 that first meeting that i was with 713 00:24:56,870 --> 00:24:54,320 brandon 714 00:24:59,590 --> 00:24:56,880 he explained to me that he bought this 715 00:25:02,149 --> 00:24:59,600 property and he wasn't even sure if 716 00:25:04,470 --> 00:25:02,159 there was anything to all of this uh 717 00:25:05,830 --> 00:25:04,480 because miss wiggles transferred over 718 00:25:07,830 --> 00:25:05,840 any data 719 00:25:10,070 --> 00:25:07,840 he wasn't sure if this was a bunch of 720 00:25:12,310 --> 00:25:10,080 stories or if there was actually 721 00:25:13,590 --> 00:25:12,320 something strange happening at the ranch 722 00:25:14,870 --> 00:25:13,600 and so 723 00:25:18,149 --> 00:25:14,880 uh he 724 00:25:20,310 --> 00:25:18,159 he wanted me to meet his prime uh his 725 00:25:23,350 --> 00:25:20,320 principal investigator eric bard who's a 726 00:25:25,830 --> 00:25:23,360 trusted confidant of of brandon's 727 00:25:29,430 --> 00:25:25,840 um and one of the greatest scientists i 728 00:25:31,990 --> 00:25:29,440 mean this guy is just brilliant and so 729 00:25:34,630 --> 00:25:32,000 disciplined in his approach 730 00:25:36,470 --> 00:25:34,640 and so meticulous about the way that he 731 00:25:39,830 --> 00:25:36,480 does his science 732 00:25:41,510 --> 00:25:39,840 he's above reproach and 733 00:25:44,310 --> 00:25:41,520 brandon said 734 00:25:46,149 --> 00:25:44,320 for the first little while i want you to 735 00:25:48,630 --> 00:25:46,159 make as little 736 00:25:52,549 --> 00:25:48,640 disturbances as possible 737 00:25:55,110 --> 00:25:52,559 and i just want to observe and see 738 00:25:58,070 --> 00:25:55,120 if we can see anything going on 739 00:26:00,630 --> 00:25:58,080 and so even when we when we 740 00:26:03,269 --> 00:26:00,640 went and put cameras up bigelow had some 741 00:26:05,029 --> 00:26:03,279 old camera he'd put his cameras inside 742 00:26:07,990 --> 00:26:05,039 of these metal 743 00:26:10,149 --> 00:26:08,000 housing casings out there on a pole and 744 00:26:12,470 --> 00:26:10,159 so we actually just took his cameras out 745 00:26:13,669 --> 00:26:12,480 because they were obsolete and just they 746 00:26:15,590 --> 00:26:13,679 were no good 747 00:26:17,830 --> 00:26:15,600 and when we put our cameras we actually 748 00:26:20,470 --> 00:26:17,840 put them inside just so that the outside 749 00:26:22,950 --> 00:26:20,480 appearance didn't change at all we 750 00:26:24,630 --> 00:26:22,960 didn't want to broadcast 751 00:26:26,390 --> 00:26:24,640 any um 752 00:26:28,549 --> 00:26:26,400 that we were there really that we were 753 00:26:30,950 --> 00:26:28,559 trying to watch and so we were trying to 754 00:26:33,830 --> 00:26:30,960 we were just in a state of observation 755 00:26:36,070 --> 00:26:33,840 and so for the first 12 to even maybe 16 756 00:26:39,190 --> 00:26:36,080 months that brandon owned the ranch 757 00:26:41,029 --> 00:26:39,200 um we were in a observation period where 758 00:26:42,870 --> 00:26:41,039 we were just trying to see 759 00:26:44,710 --> 00:26:42,880 is there something happening at 760 00:26:47,669 --> 00:26:44,720 skinwalker ranch 761 00:26:49,909 --> 00:26:47,679 and uh it didn't take very long and 762 00:26:52,070 --> 00:26:49,919 matter of fact brandon had his first ufo 763 00:26:54,789 --> 00:26:52,080 sighting on the ranch i think six months 764 00:26:57,909 --> 00:26:54,799 after he purchased the property 765 00:26:59,669 --> 00:26:57,919 you know going into the fall here 766 00:27:01,269 --> 00:26:59,679 but it didn't take very long before we 767 00:27:02,710 --> 00:27:01,279 started to witness things that were 768 00:27:04,310 --> 00:27:02,720 unexplainable 769 00:27:07,590 --> 00:27:04,320 and 770 00:27:10,230 --> 00:27:07,600 the answer became very clear that yes 771 00:27:12,230 --> 00:27:10,240 there is something strange taking place 772 00:27:14,390 --> 00:27:12,240 on skinwalker ranch 773 00:27:15,269 --> 00:27:14,400 and uh and then 774 00:27:18,950 --> 00:27:15,279 about 775 00:27:21,029 --> 00:27:18,960 i'd say early 2017 the discussion began 776 00:27:23,350 --> 00:27:21,039 to shift from 777 00:27:25,669 --> 00:27:23,360 is there something happening to 778 00:27:28,389 --> 00:27:25,679 there is something happening now what do 779 00:27:30,470 --> 00:27:28,399 we do about it what is the next step 780 00:27:31,590 --> 00:27:30,480 and that's when we started to transition 781 00:27:33,590 --> 00:27:31,600 into 782 00:27:35,110 --> 00:27:33,600 taking some pretty aggressive steps to 783 00:27:38,470 --> 00:27:35,120 update the 784 00:27:40,149 --> 00:27:38,480 infrastructure brandon is very wealthy 785 00:27:42,149 --> 00:27:40,159 but he's wealthy because he's smart with 786 00:27:44,070 --> 00:27:42,159 his money he just didn't start dumping 787 00:27:48,789 --> 00:27:44,080 money a million directions 788 00:27:50,870 --> 00:27:48,799 our our investment has always been um 789 00:27:51,830 --> 00:27:50,880 it's always followed the data 790 00:27:53,750 --> 00:27:51,840 so 791 00:27:56,070 --> 00:27:53,760 for example the first camera system that 792 00:27:59,909 --> 00:27:56,080 we put out on the ranch was a very 793 00:28:01,510 --> 00:27:59,919 inexpensive low-grade low-quality system 794 00:28:03,029 --> 00:28:01,520 it was simply there to just see if we 795 00:28:04,470 --> 00:28:03,039 could capture and once we started 796 00:28:06,230 --> 00:28:04,480 capturing stuff 797 00:28:08,230 --> 00:28:06,240 then brandon's then brandon 798 00:28:10,389 --> 00:28:08,240 incrementally started to increase the 799 00:28:12,789 --> 00:28:10,399 quality of the cameras and the 800 00:28:14,950 --> 00:28:12,799 surveillance systems that we had based 801 00:28:16,710 --> 00:28:14,960 on the data that we were getting and 802 00:28:18,310 --> 00:28:16,720 we've we've spent money on things and 803 00:28:20,149 --> 00:28:18,320 haven't got any results and so there's 804 00:28:21,269 --> 00:28:20,159 no sense spending even more money in 805 00:28:23,590 --> 00:28:21,279 that area 806 00:28:25,590 --> 00:28:23,600 and so our spending has been focused 807 00:28:28,070 --> 00:28:25,600 solely on where we're getting the 808 00:28:30,710 --> 00:28:28,080 results so my time out at the ranch in 809 00:28:32,950 --> 00:28:30,720 the last four years was um 810 00:28:34,789 --> 00:28:32,960 it is a ranch that requires care it 811 00:28:36,870 --> 00:28:34,799 needs to be irrigated 812 00:28:38,630 --> 00:28:36,880 you have to you have to get livestock on 813 00:28:40,630 --> 00:28:38,640 there or else it turns into a big fire 814 00:28:42,149 --> 00:28:40,640 hazard because the grass grows two feet 815 00:28:43,830 --> 00:28:42,159 tall in the spring 816 00:28:46,710 --> 00:28:43,840 and then because we're in a desert by 817 00:28:48,789 --> 00:28:46,720 august it's just so dead and dry that 818 00:28:49,990 --> 00:28:48,799 even a spark would just burn the whole 819 00:28:52,549 --> 00:28:50,000 place down 820 00:28:54,470 --> 00:28:52,559 uh the cows come in they eat the grass 821 00:28:56,389 --> 00:28:54,480 down and then it doesn't it doesn't do 822 00:28:59,029 --> 00:28:56,399 that so 823 00:29:01,110 --> 00:28:59,039 um the fences the i mean there's so much 824 00:29:02,230 --> 00:29:01,120 maintenance just just with a regular 825 00:29:04,870 --> 00:29:02,240 ranch 826 00:29:06,630 --> 00:29:04,880 that takes place that that i was trying 827 00:29:09,590 --> 00:29:06,640 to take care of and then you when you 828 00:29:12,549 --> 00:29:09,600 add on to that the science once and once 829 00:29:14,870 --> 00:29:12,559 2017 started that's when we started to 830 00:29:16,710 --> 00:29:14,880 make aggressive changes and really 831 00:29:19,110 --> 00:29:16,720 so then the whole narrative of my injury 832 00:29:22,230 --> 00:29:19,120 comes into play because 833 00:29:24,230 --> 00:29:22,240 it was it was march of 2017 when i had 834 00:29:26,549 --> 00:29:24,240 that severe injury and it 835 00:29:29,110 --> 00:29:26,559 you know maybe coincidentally maybe not 836 00:29:30,389 --> 00:29:29,120 we don't know for sure we can't say 837 00:29:32,710 --> 00:29:30,399 positively 838 00:29:35,110 --> 00:29:32,720 but that's when i started to do some 839 00:29:36,870 --> 00:29:35,120 major excavation on the ranch 840 00:29:39,190 --> 00:29:36,880 in conjunction with upgrading the 841 00:29:41,430 --> 00:29:39,200 facilities and then 842 00:29:44,070 --> 00:29:41,440 you know i start i start changing the 843 00:29:46,230 --> 00:29:44,080 landscape drastically putting in some 844 00:29:48,870 --> 00:29:46,240 roads and things for security to be able 845 00:29:52,389 --> 00:29:48,880 to get around on the ranch and um 846 00:29:54,549 --> 00:29:52,399 and then i i end up with this injury so 847 00:29:56,549 --> 00:29:54,559 um i've been very busy over the past 848 00:29:58,230 --> 00:29:56,559 four years i've installed every single 849 00:30:01,430 --> 00:29:58,240 camera on the place 850 00:30:04,710 --> 00:30:01,440 every i i've run miles and miles of 851 00:30:05,669 --> 00:30:04,720 power lines and internet lines 852 00:30:06,710 --> 00:30:05,679 um 853 00:30:10,870 --> 00:30:06,720 i've 854 00:30:13,269 --> 00:30:10,880 system the wastewater system was 855 00:30:15,990 --> 00:30:13,279 completely shot we've replaced that 856 00:30:18,230 --> 00:30:16,000 the old ranch house had a lot of mold 857 00:30:19,350 --> 00:30:18,240 issues and stuff in it that we had to 858 00:30:22,389 --> 00:30:19,360 take care of 859 00:30:23,590 --> 00:30:22,399 i obviously put in the helipad 860 00:30:25,510 --> 00:30:23,600 and um 861 00:30:27,590 --> 00:30:25,520 we remodeled the command center it was 862 00:30:28,710 --> 00:30:27,600 just a dumpy old little modular trailer 863 00:30:30,870 --> 00:30:28,720 that was 864 00:30:32,710 --> 00:30:30,880 uh complete shambles we've remodeled 865 00:30:34,070 --> 00:30:32,720 that to what you see on television so 866 00:30:35,110 --> 00:30:34,080 that's what i've been doing the last 867 00:30:37,029 --> 00:30:35,120 four years 868 00:30:38,870 --> 00:30:37,039 that's amazing and there must have been 869 00:30:40,870 --> 00:30:38,880 i mean as much hard work as that sounds 870 00:30:43,269 --> 00:30:40,880 getting to create that little command 871 00:30:45,029 --> 00:30:43,279 center as like a tech geek stream when 872 00:30:47,510 --> 00:30:45,039 that door opened for the first time and 873 00:30:49,669 --> 00:30:47,520 you see all those screens it's like i 874 00:30:50,950 --> 00:30:49,679 paused the tv that i was watching and 875 00:30:52,789 --> 00:30:50,960 you know i was just looking around going 876 00:30:55,750 --> 00:30:52,799 oh my god how many tvs so they've got at 877 00:30:57,190 --> 00:30:55,760 least nine ten eleven twelve cameras on 878 00:30:59,509 --> 00:30:57,200 display just now and then i've got so 879 00:31:01,190 --> 00:30:59,519 many tvs here and there's just boxes 880 00:31:03,110 --> 00:31:01,200 everywhere and you would just love five 881 00:31:04,549 --> 00:31:03,120 ten minutes in that room to go and just 882 00:31:06,870 --> 00:31:04,559 mess about with it to see what you can 883 00:31:08,789 --> 00:31:06,880 do so that must have been a lot of fun 884 00:31:10,630 --> 00:31:08,799 can i just ask then so that kind of 885 00:31:12,549 --> 00:31:10,640 takes us up to the canal more almost 886 00:31:13,990 --> 00:31:12,559 present day the last year or so when do 887 00:31:15,509 --> 00:31:14,000 you first start to hear that there's 888 00:31:17,669 --> 00:31:15,519 potentially going to be a show made 889 00:31:19,110 --> 00:31:17,679 about the ranch was that quite a quick 890 00:31:21,190 --> 00:31:19,120 process or was it something that was 891 00:31:24,310 --> 00:31:21,200 always in the offing 892 00:31:27,909 --> 00:31:24,320 now so um 893 00:31:29,350 --> 00:31:27,919 it's something that once we determined 894 00:31:31,269 --> 00:31:29,360 that there was something happening on 895 00:31:33,830 --> 00:31:31,279 the ranch and that discussion turned 896 00:31:35,509 --> 00:31:33,840 okay yeah we're seeing things happen 897 00:31:37,350 --> 00:31:35,519 here now what do we do with this 898 00:31:39,190 --> 00:31:37,360 information do we 899 00:31:41,909 --> 00:31:39,200 do we keep it to ourselves like bigelow 900 00:31:44,149 --> 00:31:41,919 did do we share out in a public forum 901 00:31:45,669 --> 00:31:44,159 and if we share it in a public forum 902 00:31:47,509 --> 00:31:45,679 like how do you do that is that just 903 00:31:49,110 --> 00:31:47,519 something like we make a youtube video 904 00:31:50,389 --> 00:31:49,120 and put it up do we 905 00:31:51,909 --> 00:31:50,399 like is this something you put in the 906 00:31:54,870 --> 00:31:51,919 science journal 907 00:31:57,110 --> 00:31:54,880 uh it really became how do you how do 908 00:32:00,070 --> 00:31:57,120 you release this information 909 00:32:01,430 --> 00:32:00,080 and about the same time 910 00:32:03,590 --> 00:32:01,440 and i'm i want to make sure you get my 911 00:32:05,430 --> 00:32:03,600 dates here right but um 912 00:32:06,870 --> 00:32:05,440 the entire time we owned the ranch one 913 00:32:08,149 --> 00:32:06,880 of the first things we had to do there 914 00:32:09,750 --> 00:32:08,159 was a road that went right through the 915 00:32:10,789 --> 00:32:09,760 middle of the ranch that was a public 916 00:32:12,310 --> 00:32:10,799 road 917 00:32:14,789 --> 00:32:12,320 and 918 00:32:17,110 --> 00:32:14,799 when we bought it the county notified 919 00:32:18,870 --> 00:32:17,120 brandon that we couldn't lock the gate 920 00:32:21,350 --> 00:32:18,880 anymore it was a public road we had to 921 00:32:23,029 --> 00:32:21,360 let the public go across 922 00:32:24,710 --> 00:32:23,039 which 923 00:32:26,389 --> 00:32:24,720 put a lot of panic through the team 924 00:32:29,590 --> 00:32:26,399 because it's like how can you carry on 925 00:32:31,350 --> 00:32:29,600 an ongoing science investigation 926 00:32:33,750 --> 00:32:31,360 if you've got tourists going through the 927 00:32:35,029 --> 00:32:33,760 middle of your laboratory 928 00:32:37,350 --> 00:32:35,039 and so 929 00:32:40,389 --> 00:32:37,360 i you i was able to go to the county and 930 00:32:43,110 --> 00:32:40,399 get that road vacated and shut down 931 00:32:45,909 --> 00:32:43,120 and uh when i did that it required 932 00:32:48,070 --> 00:32:45,919 public hearings and brandon 933 00:32:49,750 --> 00:32:48,080 he didn't want this to stigmatize his 934 00:32:52,470 --> 00:32:49,760 business uh you know this whole 935 00:32:53,830 --> 00:32:52,480 paranormal world doesn't always mix well 936 00:32:55,430 --> 00:32:53,840 when you're talking about business 937 00:32:57,029 --> 00:32:55,440 professionals in real estate and you're 938 00:32:58,710 --> 00:32:57,039 trying to sell a building to people and 939 00:33:00,310 --> 00:32:58,720 they think you're a quack 940 00:33:01,990 --> 00:33:00,320 you know because you you're chasing 941 00:33:03,269 --> 00:33:02,000 ghosts and goblins 942 00:33:05,110 --> 00:33:03,279 so brandon 943 00:33:07,430 --> 00:33:05,120 was very 944 00:33:09,750 --> 00:33:07,440 very adamant that people not know his 945 00:33:11,350 --> 00:33:09,760 identity so anytime we had to go public 946 00:33:13,509 --> 00:33:11,360 with something we always did it through 947 00:33:15,029 --> 00:33:13,519 my name so i was the one that attended 948 00:33:17,830 --> 00:33:15,039 the public hearings 949 00:33:18,710 --> 00:33:17,840 i was the one that got the road vacated 950 00:33:21,430 --> 00:33:18,720 um 951 00:33:22,950 --> 00:33:21,440 we did brandon let me he he reached out 952 00:33:25,430 --> 00:33:22,960 and said hey release a few of these 953 00:33:27,590 --> 00:33:25,440 photos on the internet so i would put a 954 00:33:29,830 --> 00:33:27,600 few photos out so when people went 955 00:33:31,350 --> 00:33:29,840 searching for skinwalker ranch my name 956 00:33:33,269 --> 00:33:31,360 was the only one that they could find 957 00:33:35,430 --> 00:33:33,279 associated with it 958 00:33:38,549 --> 00:33:35,440 and because of that 959 00:33:40,230 --> 00:33:38,559 i i had both the blessing and the curse 960 00:33:41,990 --> 00:33:40,240 of having 961 00:33:43,430 --> 00:33:42,000 hundreds of people reach out to me on a 962

00:36:09,430 --> 00:36:07,760 the real deal he's a good guy it's worth 1035 00:36:12,230 --> 00:36:09,440 having a conversation 1036 00:36:14,230 --> 00:36:12,240 so then tj i think tj may have even 1037 00:36:15,829 --> 00:36:14,240 flown in to talk to brandon i'm not sure 1038 00:36:18,550 --> 00:36:15,839 about that but um 1039 00:36:19,829 --> 00:36:18,560 tj finally got to talk to brandon 1040 00:36:22,470 --> 00:36:19,839 and uh 1041 00:36:26,630 --> 00:36:22,480 and thus the idea of 1042 00:36:27,670 --> 00:36:26,640 the whole network series came into being 1043 00:36:29,510 --> 00:36:27,680 and uh 1044 00:36:31,349 --> 00:36:29,520 and that's kind of how it came to be so 1045 00:36:32,630 --> 00:36:31,359 it's not something that we went out 1046 00:36:33,510 --> 00:36:32,640 looking for 1047 00:36:35,589 --> 00:36:33,520 um 1048 00:36:37,990 --> 00:36:35,599 i have to give tj a lot of credit for 1049 00:36:40,630 --> 00:36:38,000 being persistent and following up every 1050 00:36:42,390 --> 00:36:40,640 single month and uh kip 1051 00:36:44,710 --> 00:36:42,400 he just didn't give up so 1052 00:36:46,790 --> 00:36:44,720 it took a long time before from from 1053 00:36:48,550 --> 00:36:46,800 when we were first contacted and then 1054 00:36:50,230 --> 00:36:48,560 even after that point that he had that 1055 00:36:52,390 --> 00:36:50,240 conversation with the brand and then i 1056 00:36:57,109 --> 00:36:52,400 think you know it was a long time after 1057 00:36:59,270 --> 00:36:57,119 that that before it became a reality so 1058 00:37:00,390 --> 00:36:59,280 i mean so on the ranch at this point 1059 00:37:02,390 --> 00:37:00,400 we're getting to the point now we're 1060 00:37:05,990 --> 00:37:02,400 about to start filming the show 1061 00:37:12,230 --> 00:37:06,000 is it yourself jim morse is jim segala 1062 00:37:14,630 --> 00:37:12,240 there as well um so our our ranch team 1063 00:37:17,190 --> 00:37:14,640 from the beginning has basically been 1064 00:37:19,030 --> 00:37:17,200 myself and eric bard the principal 1065 00:37:19,990 --> 00:37:19,040 investigator jim morse who's the ranch 1066 00:37:23,430 --> 00:37:20,000 manager 1067 00:37:24,230 --> 00:37:23,440 and um bryant arnold dragon 1068 00:37:26,150 --> 00:37:24,240 uh 1069 00:37:27,270 --> 00:37:26,160 he's been there from the beginning 1070 00:37:29,510 --> 00:37:27,280 and then 1071 00:37:30,790 --> 00:37:29,520 jim sagala 1072 00:37:32,710 --> 00:37:30,800 um 1073 00:37:35,109 --> 00:37:32,720 he has an interesting pass in the fact 1074 00:37:37,430 --> 00:37:35,119 that he has done a lot of work that is 1075 00:37:39,829 --> 00:37:37,440 tied in with the ranch through others 1076 00:37:41,670 --> 00:37:39,839 through other individuals so um he's 1077 00:37:44,790 --> 00:37:41,680 tied in with some of the scientists that 1078 00:37:47,589 --> 00:37:44,800 worked for mr bigelow um on 1079 00:37:50,470 --> 00:37:47,599 mr bigelow's investigation and so jim 1080 00:37:54,069 --> 00:37:50,480 segala had a lot of knowledge as far as 1081 00:37:57,109 --> 00:37:54,079 the big low days and then with my injury 1082 00:37:59,750 --> 00:37:57,119 that's kind of jim sagalas he was one of 1083 00:38:00,470 --> 00:37:59,760 the three individuals that investigated 1084 00:38:01,750 --> 00:38:00,480 my 1085 00:38:03,109 --> 00:38:01,760 head injury 1086 00:38:05,270 --> 00:38:03,119 and so 1087 00:38:07,829 --> 00:38:05,280 it made sense to bring him in 1088 00:38:10,870 --> 00:38:07,839 because one he he's coming at it from 1089 00:38:12,630 --> 00:38:10,880 kind of that biomedical side um with 1090 00:38:15,109 --> 00:38:12,640 with my injury 1091 00:38:16,630 --> 00:38:15,119 and uh and then he also had you know 1092 00:38:18,470 --> 00:38:16,640 pretty good knowledge of some of the 1093 00:38:19,510 --> 00:38:18,480 things that bigelow 1094 00:38:21,990 --> 00:38:19,520 um 1095 00:38:23,829 --> 00:38:22,000 had done during bigelow days so 1096 00:38:26,310 --> 00:38:23,839 he's been tied into the ranch for quite 1097 00:38:29,030 --> 00:38:26,320 some time but not necessarily like on 1098 00:38:30,950 --> 00:38:29,040 our branch team if that makes sense 1099 00:38:33,829 --> 00:38:30,960 yeah of course that's really interesting 1100 00:38:35,910 --> 00:38:33,839 to know how did things start to change 1101 00:38:38,790 --> 00:38:35,920 on a day-to-day running of the ranch as 1102 00:38:40,710 --> 00:38:38,800 the cameras and crew and i'm guessing tj 1103 00:38:42,710 --> 00:38:40,720 and his people start to come in for for 1104 00:38:44,550 --> 00:38:42,720 you guys because you've now had it what 1105 00:38:46,870 --> 00:38:44,560 two two to three years at this point 1106 00:38:48,870 --> 00:38:46,880 working on the ranch and 1107 00:38:50,790 --> 00:38:48,880 i'm guessing things changed to some 1108 00:38:53,670 --> 00:38:50,800 degree what was that like 1109 00:38:54,390 --> 00:38:53,680 yeah so they absolutely did change i 1110 00:38:55,670 --> 00:38:54,400 mean 1111 00:38:57,750 --> 00:38:55,680 um 1112 00:38:59,670 --> 00:38:57,760 you know 1113 00:39:01,349 --> 00:38:59,680 while jim segall had been on the ranch 1114 00:39:02,710 --> 00:39:01,359 several times before and he'd been 1115 00:39:05,589 --> 00:39:02,720 working 1116 00:39:07,829 --> 00:39:05,599 behind the scenes on on my investigation 1117 00:39:09,349 --> 00:39:07,839 on my head injury and 1118 00:39:10,310 --> 00:39:09,359 been working on some of the science as 1119 00:39:12,550 --> 00:39:10,320 well 1120 00:39:14,230 --> 00:39:12,560 travis was new to the scene 1121 00:39:16,390 --> 00:39:14,240 you know we're bringing on a new 1122 00:39:18,230 --> 00:39:16,400 skeptical scientist 1123 00:39:20,230 --> 00:39:18,240 and uh 1124 00:39:21,750 --> 00:39:20,240 when you bring a new scientist down it 1125 00:39:23,190 --> 00:39:21,760 almost is like you have to go back to 1126 00:39:24,550 --> 00:39:23,200 the beginning and say we've done this 1127 00:39:26,390 --> 00:39:24,560 this this this 1128 00:39:28,710 --> 00:39:26,400 and and then they want to of course see 1129 00:39:30,150 --> 00:39:28,720 that for themselves they want to 1130 00:39:32,310 --> 00:39:30,160 they want to 1131 00:39:34,310 --> 00:39:32,320 be able to verify for themselves what's 1132 00:39:35,670 --> 00:39:34,320 going on 1133 00:39:37,349 --> 00:39:35,680 and then 1134 00:39:39,510 --> 00:39:37,359 it 1135 00:39:41,750 --> 00:39:39,520 the investigation 1136 00:39:43,750 --> 00:39:41,760 so it is authentic on tv as far as we're 1137 00:39:44,790 --> 00:39:43,760 not we're not dramatizing it's not 1138 00:39:46,710 --> 00:39:44,800 scripted 1139 00:39:48,790 --> 00:39:46,720 they left it up to us to do what we 1140 00:39:49,829 --> 00:39:48,800 wanted to do i was never told what to 1141 00:39:52,630 --> 00:39:49,839 say 1142 00:39:54,790 --> 00:39:52,640 um as far as like hey you know do this 1143 00:39:56,950 --> 00:39:54,800 or do that 1144 00:39:59,990 --> 00:39:56,960 so it's authentic that way but it did 1145 00:40:01,750 --> 00:40:00,000 change the fact that 1146 00:40:03,589 --> 00:40:01,760 there's a lot of the science that would 1147 00:40:06,309 --> 00:40:03,599 just put people to sleep 1148 00:40:07,430 --> 00:40:06,319 it's definitely not made for tv 1149 00:40:09,349 --> 00:40:07,440 and so 1150 00:40:11,270 --> 00:40:09,359 for those couple of months that you have 1151 00:40:12,950 --> 00:40:11,280 the cameras there you're really focused 1152 00:40:14,470 --> 00:40:12,960 more on the visuals 1153 00:40:15,510 --> 00:40:14,480 side of things 1154 00:40:17,670 --> 00:40:15,520 um 1155 00:40:19,589 --> 00:40:17,680 we've been trying to process the data 1156 00:40:22,230 --> 00:40:19,599 from the summer filming 1157 00:40:23,109 --> 00:40:22,240 since the cameras turned off and went 1158 00:40:24,710 --> 00:40:23,119 away 1159 00:40:25,910 --> 00:40:24,720 because we gathered a lot of data and 1160 00:40:28,150 --> 00:40:25,920 then you're trying to go through and 1161 00:40:30,230 --> 00:40:28,160 post process it figure out 1162 00:40:31,270 --> 00:40:30,240 you know plot it figure out what it all 1163 00:40:34,470 --> 00:40:31,280 means 1164 00:40:35,430 --> 00:40:34,480 um so it changes in the in the format 1165 00:40:38,309 --> 00:40:35,440 that 1166 00:40:40,790 --> 00:40:38,319 um we're trying to share what what our 1167 00:40:42,710 --> 00:40:40,800 investigation is with the audience 1168 00:40:45,109 --> 00:40:42,720 um which is legit 1169 00:40:46,550 --> 00:40:45,119 um but at the same time 1170 00:40:48,630 --> 00:40:46,560 uh 1171 00:40:51,430 --> 00:40:48,640 even things like when we're measuring rf 1172 00:40:53,829 --> 00:40:51,440 for example we're out there well we're 1173 00:40:56,150 --> 00:40:53,839 all wearing microphones 1174 00:40:57,510 --> 00:40:56,160 um the cameras are all broadcasting 1175 00:41:00,230 --> 00:40:57,520 wirelessly 1176 00:41:02,470 --> 00:41:00,240 like we're creating a lot of radio 1177 00:41:04,309 --> 00:41:02,480 frequencies just by our presence being 1178 00:41:06,470 --> 00:41:04,319 there there's nothing abnormal about 1179 00:41:08,870 --> 00:41:06,480 that so when you have a meter and it's 1180 00:41:11,190 --> 00:41:08,880 spiking and it's showing high levels of 1181 00:41:13,349 --> 00:41:11,200 rf 1182 00:41:16,790 --> 00:41:13,359 well a lot of that could just be caused 1183 00:41:18,950 --> 00:41:16,800 by our cameras and our microphones and 1184 00:41:20,230 --> 00:41:18,960 our self-emitted 1185 00:41:21,750 --> 00:41:20,240 all our cell phones and all the 1186 00:41:23,030 --> 00:41:21,760 equipment that's there 1187 00:41:25,190 --> 00:41:23,040 and so 1188 00:41:27,910 --> 00:41:25,200 the process becomes a little harder 1189 00:41:30,230 --> 00:41:27,920 because you have to eliminate the known 1190 00:41:31,430 --> 00:41:30,240 sources from the unknown sources which 1191 00:41:33,430 --> 00:41:31,440 means if you're starting to see those 1192 00:41:34,630 --> 00:41:33,440 spikes you got to turn off the cameras 1193 00:41:35,829 --> 00:41:34,640 you got to turn off the microphones you 1194 00:41:37,670 --> 00:41:35,839 got to turn off the cell phones you've 1195 00:41:40,470 --> 00:41:37,680 got to eliminate everything you possibly 1196 00:41:42,550 --> 00:41:40,480 can that might be emitting that signal 1197 00:41:45,670 --> 00:41:42,560 so that you can tell that that signal is 1198 00:41:47,190 --> 00:41:45,680 legit and not just 1199 00:41:49,829 --> 00:41:47,200 man-made 1200 00:41:52,150 --> 00:41:49,839 so there's a lot of that stuff that we 1201 00:41:53,750 --> 00:41:52,160 you have to learn how to work with the 1202 00:41:56,630 --> 00:41:53,760 film crew 1203 00:41:58,309 --> 00:41:56,640 and try to figure out uh we're out there 1204 00:41:59,349 --> 00:41:58,319 with you know i think it's episode three 1205 00:42:01,589 --> 00:41:59,359 when we're out there trying to 1206 00:42:02,790 --> 00:42:01,599 triangulate and there's a camera shot of 1207 00:42:05,750 --> 00:42:02,800 us like 1208 00:42:07,270 --> 00:42:05,760 we got these coffee cans it's jim sagala 1209 00:42:10,230 --> 00:42:07,280 and travis and i we got these coffee 1210 00:42:12,390 --> 00:42:10,240 cans with these little rf meters right 1211 00:42:14,870 --> 00:42:12,400 and i've taken a lot of criticism for 1212 00:42:17,750 --> 00:42:14,880 this as i'm sure travis and jim were 1213 00:42:20,150 --> 00:42:17,760 like holding this rf meter out in front 1214 00:42:22,550 --> 00:42:20,160 of the coffee can which obviously 1215 00:42:23,589 --> 00:42:22,560 defeats the whole purpose 1216 00:42:26,870 --> 00:42:23,599 and 1217 00:42:28,390 --> 00:42:26,880 using those right you guys don't know 1218 00:42:29,190 --> 00:42:28,400 what the heck you're doing 1219 00:42:31,430 --> 00:42:29,200 well 1220 00:42:33,430 --> 00:42:31,440 when the when the meter is inside the 1221 00:42:35,349 --> 00:42:33,440 coffee can and you've got to hold it so 1222 00:42:36,950 --> 00:42:35,359 that you can still see inside the can 1223 00:42:38,390 --> 00:42:36,960 and see the meter 1224 00:42:41,030 --> 00:42:38,400 but 1225 00:42:43,270 --> 00:42:41,040 uh keep it inside the camera can't see 1226 00:42:45,349 --> 00:42:43,280 that it it doesn't make for a good 1227 00:42:47,829 --> 00:42:45,359 camera shot for the audience 1228 00:42:49,910 --> 00:42:47,839 so it's balancing it's it's like 1229 00:42:52,470 --> 00:42:49,920 actually doing the exercise 1230 00:42:54,390 --> 00:42:52,480 and then being able to film it in a way 1231 00:42:55,589 --> 00:42:54,400 that the audience could get an idea of 1232 00:42:57,670 --> 00:42:55,599 what it is that we're trying to 1233 00:42:59,990 --> 00:42:57,680 accomplish and so 1234 00:43:01,349 --> 00:43:00,000 there's so much of that that's like oh 1235 00:43:02,710 --> 00:43:01,359 we need to 1236 00:43:03,829 --> 00:43:02,720 you got to pull that out of the can 1237 00:43:06,630 --> 00:43:03,839 where we can pick that up with the 1238 00:43:08,950 --> 00:43:06,640 camera and uh so that's a lot of the 1239 00:43:10,870 --> 00:43:08,960 adjustments was trying to trying to 1240 00:43:13,589 --> 00:43:10,880 learn how to do the science 1241 00:43:15,349 --> 00:43:13,599 and make it work for the camera guys so 1242 00:43:17,270 --> 00:43:15,359 that we can give them their sexy shot 1243 00:43:19,430 --> 00:43:17,280 that's gonna you know bring ratings to 1244 00:43:21,510 --> 00:43:19,440 the television show this is something 1245 00:43:24,630 --> 00:43:21,520 i've addressed with dan when we do the 1246 00:43:26,550 --> 00:43:24,640 watch along show and i love the show and 1247 00:43:28,630 --> 00:43:26,560 i've i kind of compared it to the the 1248 00:43:30,069 --> 00:43:28,640 unidentified series with tom delong and 1249 00:43:31,510 --> 00:43:30,079 louise elizondo i don't know if you 1250 00:43:33,750 --> 00:43:31,520 watched any of that 1251 00:43:36,230 --> 00:43:33,760 um around obviously the tic tac ufo and 1252 00:43:38,630 --> 00:43:36,240 it's again history channel produce it 1253 00:43:40,150 --> 00:43:38,640 it's you know that's about uff and the 1254 00:43:42,470 --> 00:43:40,160 us government's recent admissions and 1255 00:43:45,190 --> 00:43:42,480 then this is here's a serious scientific 1256 00:43:46,710 --> 00:43:45,200 investigation on history again about 1257 00:43:48,870 --> 00:43:46,720 skill and walker ranch so the 1258 00:43:51,750 --> 00:43:48,880 comparisons are probably pretty fair 1259 00:43:53,349 --> 00:43:51,760 so something then i'll address now so 1260 00:43:54,950 --> 00:43:53,359 the reception of season one there was a 1261 00:43:56,630 --> 00:43:54,960 lot of great reviews the ratings were 1262 00:43:58,150 --> 00:43:56,640 really good i've actually been involved 1263 00:44:01,109 --> 00:43:58,160 in a conversation with a few people 1264 00:44:03,990 --> 00:44:01,119 today where brandon has been destroying 1265 00:44:05,990 --> 00:44:04,000 some skeptics fantastically on twitter 1266 00:44:07,829 --> 00:44:06,000 which i love to watch him do because 1267 00:44:09,589 --> 00:44:07,839 he's very eloquent and he's extremely 1268 00:44:12,230 --> 00:44:09,599 intelligent and i love the way he comes 1269 00:44:13,829 --> 00:44:12,240 across and however like you've said 1270 00:44:15,670 --> 00:44:13,839 yourself there's a lot of mixed feelings 1271 00:44:17,589 --> 00:44:15,680 on the production potentially 1272 00:44:18,950 --> 00:44:17,599 manufactured forced incidents and you've 1273 00:44:20,390 --> 00:44:18,960 kind of addressed that there when you 1274 00:44:22,390 --> 00:44:20,400 say that you've got to do certain things 1275 00:44:25,109 --> 00:44:22,400 with different camera shots have you 1276 00:44:26,790 --> 00:44:25,119 watched the full season back and would 1277 00:44:29,030 --> 00:44:26,800 you say any of those criticisms were 1278 00:44:30,309 --> 00:44:29,040 fair around the production aspect of it 1279 00:44:33,430 --> 00:44:30,319 so yeah 1280 00:44:35,270 --> 00:44:33,440 i know what we filmed and uh and then 1281 00:44:37,510 --> 00:44:35,280 just like the regular viewers i'm 1282 00:44:41,109 --> 00:44:37,520 sitting down on television and you have 1283 00:44:43,829 --> 00:44:41,119 to realize that we filmed all summer and 1284 00:44:45,910 --> 00:44:43,839 that's condensed down to eight 1285 00:44:47,910 --> 00:44:45,920 i don't know what they are 45 or 50 1286 00:44:49,349 --> 00:44:47,920 minute episodes 1287 00:44:52,710 --> 00:44:49,359 so you're taking 1288 00:44:56,150 --> 00:44:52,720 weeks and weeks and weeks of filming and 1289 00:44:59,510 --> 00:44:56,160 editing it down for 1290 00:45:00,309 --> 00:44:59,520 for 45 minutes uh episode 1291 00:45:03,750 --> 00:45:00,319 and 1292 00:45:05,430 --> 00:45:03,760 there are a lot of 1293 00:45:08,069 --> 00:45:05,440 i think the frustrating thing with the 1294 00:45:10,069 --> 00:45:08,079 whole production is is um 1295 00:45:11,910 --> 00:45:10,079 i first of all i think that prometheus 1296 00:45:14,230 --> 00:45:11,920 did a wonderful job i want to be clear 1297 00:45:17,190 --> 00:45:14,240 that i think they did 1298 00:45:18,710 --> 00:45:17,200 a great job of trying to balance 1299 00:45:19,829 --> 00:45:18,720 showing the viewer the science that's 1300 00:45:21,670 --> 00:45:19,839 going on 1301 00:45:22,550 --> 00:45:21,680 but putting it in a format that's going 1302 00:45:25,030 --> 00:45:22,560 to be 1303 00:45:25,829 --> 00:45:25,040 watchable for 95 percent of the people 1304 00:45:27,750 --> 00:45:25,839 that 1305 00:45:29,349 --> 00:45:27,760 are not you know 1306 00:45:31,190 --> 00:45:29,359 those of us that are in the science we 1307 00:45:33,109 --> 00:45:31,200 want the details we could do without the 1308 00:45:34,790 --> 00:45:33,119 drama without the 1309 00:45:36,550 --> 00:45:34,800 you know the build ups and that we just 1310 00:45:38,470 --> 00:45:36,560 we want to know what are the facts here 1311 00:45:40,069 --> 00:45:38,480 what's the data what are you seeing 1312 00:45:43,190 --> 00:45:40,079 that's what's important but you have to 1313 00:45:44,630 --> 00:45:43,200 understand that 95 of the viewers 1314 00:45:46,710 --> 00:45:44,640 are coming home from work they're 1315 00:45:48,550 --> 00:45:46,720 kicking their feet up they just want 1316 00:45:50,950 --> 00:45:48,560 something to entertain them for an hour 1317 00:45:53,510 --> 00:45:50,960 and not think about their day 1318 00:45:55,270 --> 00:45:53,520 and so prometheus has had the challenge 1319 00:45:58,710 --> 00:45:55,280 of trying to edit that and keep it true 1320 00:46:02,470 --> 00:45:58,720 to the science but at the same time 1321 00:46:03,510 --> 00:46:02,480 uh i'm just gonna say it dramatizing it 1322 00:46:05,750 --> 00:46:03,520 uh 1323 00:46:06,870 --> 00:46:05,760 in in ways so i have to say as i'm 1324 00:46:09,750 --> 00:46:06,880 watching it 1325 00:46:12,309 --> 00:46:09,760 like if i'm being 100 honest 1326 00:46:14,870 --> 00:46:12,319 i'm happy with most of i'm happy with 1327 00:46:15,990 --> 00:46:14,880 probably 90 of everything they did i'm 1328 00:46:17,589 --> 00:46:16,000 happy with 1329 00:46:19,109 --> 00:46:17,599 i understand they had to portray it 1330 00:46:21,510 --> 00:46:19,119 somehow and i'm happy with the way they 1331 00:46:23,589 --> 00:46:21,520 did it there's 10 percent of it probably 1332 00:46:25,349 --> 00:46:23,599 that i cringe and i say 1333 00:46:27,349 --> 00:46:25,359 i wish that they would have shown that 1334 00:46:28,870 --> 00:46:27,359 differently because that 1335 00:46:32,790 --> 00:46:28,880 that should have 1336 00:46:34,870 --> 00:46:32,800 portrayed differently or they shouldn't 1337 00:46:38,790 --> 00:46:34,880 you know 1338 00:46:40,790 --> 00:46:38,800 episode 6 was hard for me uh i did not 1339 00:46:42,870 --> 00:46:40,800 like the way that that was edited i'm 1340 00:46:44,550 --> 00:46:42,880 just gonna say it i didn't like 1341 00:46:46,390 --> 00:46:44,560 i didn't like the way that episode six 1342 00:46:48,230 --> 00:46:46,400 was edited um 1343 00:46:50,069 --> 00:46:48,240 just flat last night i might not be sure 1344 00:46:52,630 --> 00:46:50,079 of episode six what was the particular 1345 00:46:53,829 --> 00:46:52,640 incident you weren't happy about 1346 00:46:55,670 --> 00:46:53,839 um 1347 00:46:58,230 --> 00:46:55,680 well that's the episode with the 1348 00:47:00,069 --> 00:46:58,240 drilling and then the alpacas and 1349 00:47:01,670 --> 00:47:00,079 specifically following 1350 00:47:03,030 --> 00:47:01,680 specifically dealing with the whole 1351 00:47:05,190 --> 00:47:03,040 alpaca 1352 00:47:07,109 --> 00:47:05,200 incident of them being attacked i was 1353 00:47:09,430 --> 00:47:07,119 very unhappy about the way that that was 1354 00:47:12,309 --> 00:47:09,440 portrayed and edited and 1355 00:47:15,190 --> 00:47:12,319 and i felt like in some ways was 1356 00:47:16,150 --> 00:47:15,200 deceiving as to what 1357 00:47:17,510 --> 00:47:16,160 what 1358 00:47:19,109 --> 00:47:17,520 um 1359 00:47:20,870 --> 00:47:19,119 the way that it was filmed let's just 1360 00:47:22,870 --> 00:47:20,880 put it that way and i have to be careful 1361 00:47:24,470 --> 00:47:22,880 because um i you know i'm not here to 1362 00:47:26,309 --> 00:47:24,480 throw anybody under the bus i just but i 1363 00:47:28,470 --> 00:47:26,319 do feel like i have the right to have a 1364 00:47:29,990 --> 00:47:28,480 voice and say you know i'm happy with 1365 00:47:33,190 --> 00:47:30,000 the way that was shown in the way that 1366 00:47:35,990 --> 00:47:33,200 that was not shown but so at for me yes 1367 00:47:36,870 --> 00:47:36,000 there are parts of it that i'm like uh 1368 00:47:38,150 --> 00:47:36,880 um 1369 00:47:42,309 --> 00:47:38,160 i wish that would have been portrayed 1370 00:47:44,790 --> 00:47:42,319 differently but um overall like i say 90 1371 00:47:47,109 --> 00:47:44,800 of it i'm happy with what they showed 1372 00:47:49,349 --> 00:47:47,119 and and maybe that's also because i was 1373 00:47:50,870 --> 00:47:49,359 there so when i see the criticisms and 1374 00:47:53,910 --> 00:47:50,880 the critics you know oh you're using the 1375 00:47:56,470 --> 00:47:53,920 coffee cans wrong yeah it does show us 1376 00:47:58,950 --> 00:47:56,480 using those wrong but we did do it the 1377 00:48:01,990 --> 00:47:58,960 right way the cameras just didn't like 1378 00:48:04,549 --> 00:48:02,000 they chose not to use that film because 1379 00:48:06,630 --> 00:48:04,559 it didn't look as good as this stuff 1380 00:48:09,670 --> 00:48:06,640 and so in my mind i'm i can be at peace 1381 00:48:12,150 --> 00:48:09,680 with that because um i think the critics 1382 00:48:13,990 --> 00:48:12,160 have ever he's right we were using those 1383 00:48:15,510 --> 00:48:14,000 cans wrong so i can't blame him for 1384 00:48:16,710 --> 00:48:15,520 feeling that way 1385 00:48:17,750 --> 00:48:16,720 um 1386 00:48:19,829 --> 00:48:17,760 but 1387 00:48:21,270 --> 00:48:19,839 it was just a representation we did use 1388 00:48:24,950 --> 00:48:21,280 them the correct way 1389 00:48:27,510 --> 00:48:24,960 we did go through and um 1390 00:48:29,430 --> 00:48:27,520 you know the cam like for example when 1391 00:48:31,510 --> 00:48:29,440 we have to take the cameras down to 1392 00:48:33,910 --> 00:48:31,520 check for rf that's something that's not 1393 00:48:36,870 --> 00:48:33,920 getting filmed 1394 00:48:38,950 --> 00:48:36,880 so the audience can't see us 1395 00:48:41,670 --> 00:48:38,960 doing our very best to be true to 1396 00:48:44,309 --> 00:48:41,680 science and trying to eliminate 1397 00:48:45,589 --> 00:48:44,319 okay was it this was it that 1398 00:48:47,430 --> 00:48:45,599 and uh 1399 00:48:48,549 --> 00:48:47,440 and so 1400 00:48:52,150 --> 00:48:48,559 um 1401 00:48:54,150 --> 00:48:52,160 yeah it's it's one of those things where 1402 00:48:55,990 --> 00:48:54,160 it's almost like a marriage you know you 1403 00:48:57,270 --> 00:48:56,000 gotta compromise a little bit 1404 00:48:59,109 --> 00:48:57,280 and you know you're not gonna get 1405 00:49:01,109 --> 00:48:59,119 perfect so you just strive to get for 1406 00:49:02,309 --> 00:49:01,119 something that you can both live with 1407 00:49:06,069 --> 00:49:02,319 and 1408 00:49:08,150 --> 00:49:06,079 this tv series 1409 00:49:09,589 --> 00:49:08,160 no i really appreciate the honesty on 1410 00:49:11,190 --> 00:49:09,599 that and i think 1411 00:49:13,190 --> 00:49:11,200 when you get involved in something like 1412 00:49:15,270 --> 00:49:13,200 the community whether it's paranormal 1413 00:49:17,510 --> 00:49:15,280 the ufo community you know people who 1414 00:49:18,870 --> 00:49:17,520 are see a spiritual side to what's going 1415 00:49:20,549 --> 00:49:18,880 on or whatever it is they're very 1416 00:49:22,630 --> 00:49:20,559 protective because this is something for 1417 00:49:24,150 --> 00:49:22,640 their whole life it's it's been theirs 1418 00:49:25,990 --> 00:49:24,160 there'll be people that for skin walker 1419 00:49:27,430 --> 00:49:26,000 ranch this is what it means to them and 1420 00:49:29,030 --> 00:49:27,440 when people try and make it look like 1421 00:49:30,630 --> 00:49:29,040 something it's not they get protective 1422 00:49:33,670 --> 00:49:30,640 and the ufo community is one of the 1423 00:49:35,990 --> 00:49:33,680 worst for that it's great but it's also 1424 00:49:37,750 --> 00:49:36,000 brutal at times as well the slightest 1425 00:49:39,190 --> 00:49:37,760 thing so i get that and you're right 1426 00:49:41,190 --> 00:49:39,200 that it's entertainment at the end of 1427 00:49:43,030 --> 00:49:41,200 the day and if you want to move the 1428 00:49:44,549 --> 00:49:43,040 conversation forward and you want to 1429 00:49:46,390 --> 00:49:44,559 bring a new audience to kind of see 1430 00:49:48,630 --> 00:49:46,400 what's being done there with the 1431 00:49:50,069 --> 00:49:48,640 investigation and does that involve 1432 00:49:51,750 --> 00:49:50,079 eventually getting more funding more 1433 00:49:54,069 --> 00:49:51,760 eyes on the project and you know moving 1434 00:49:56,150 --> 00:49:54,079 it into a bigger discussion then you do 1435 00:49:58,390 --> 00:49:56,160 have to aim it at people in an 1436 00:50:00,390 --> 00:49:58,400 entertaining way because like you say as 1437 00:50:01,589 --> 00:50:00,400 incredible as the sciences and the data 1438 00:50:03,670 --> 00:50:01,599 is going to be the thing that you know 1439 00:50:06,230 --> 00:50:03,680 ultimately gives us answers it's not 1440 00:50:07,990 --> 00:50:06,240 going to get ratings and ratings if 1441 00:50:10,150 --> 00:50:08,000 they're low aren't going to renew shows 1442 00:50:11,910 --> 00:50:10,160 so there's a balance there to be found 1443 00:50:14,069 --> 00:50:11,920 and i think if i had anything and this 1444 00:50:15,990 --> 00:50:14,079 is just my own personal for season two 1445 00:50:18,390 --> 00:50:16,000 whoever's in charge of mixing the music 1446 00:50:20,549 --> 00:50:18,400 and the dramatic headshots of 1447 00:50:22,230 --> 00:50:20,559 you know when you look to the side and i 1448 00:50:24,230 --> 00:50:22,240 just i just get that i just get that 1449 00:50:26,309 --> 00:50:24,240 cringe of ah you shouldn't have my look 1450 00:50:28,470 --> 00:50:26,319 but i i reckon the look and particularly 1451 00:50:30,390 --> 00:50:28,480 dragon some of his looks i think has he 1452 00:50:32,230 --> 00:50:30,400 actually done that at that time or have 1453 00:50:34,549 --> 00:50:32,240 they taken a totally random shot from 1454 00:50:35,990 --> 00:50:34,559 five minutes before where someone's been 1455 00:50:37,510 --> 00:50:36,000 ordering a chinese and he's not been 1456 00:50:38,790 --> 00:50:37,520 happy with what's came you know what's 1457 00:50:41,109 --> 00:50:38,800 been delivered 1458 00:50:43,109 --> 00:50:41,119 that is the shot so i always worry about 1459 00:50:49,750 --> 00:50:43,119 that one look at these reality based you 1460 00:50:53,270 --> 00:50:51,829 sometimes they're real and sometimes 1461 00:50:55,109 --> 00:50:53,280 they were edited from five minutes 1462 00:50:57,030 --> 00:50:55,119 earlier when the chinese was not right 1463 00:50:58,630 --> 00:50:57,040 so yes yeah 1464 00:51:00,309 --> 00:50:58,640 and you know what i can live with that 1465 00:51:01,990 --> 00:51:00,319 though you get that and it's getting an 1466 00:51:03,589 --> 00:51:02,000 audience and you know what it has been 1467 00:51:05,109 --> 00:51:03,599 renewed for a second season and we'll 1468 00:51:06,790 --> 00:51:05,119 kind of wrap up on on talking about 1469 00:51:08,549 --> 00:51:06,800 season two but just to go back then 1470 00:51:11,270 --> 00:51:08,559 you've mentioned a few times about your 1471 00:51:13,109 --> 00:51:11,280 your head and your injury um so what we 1472 00:51:15,190 --> 00:51:13,119 see is that before the season started a 1473 00:51:17,270 --> 00:51:15,200 couple of years previous you had done 1474 00:51:19,190 --> 00:51:17,280 some digging um i believe the shot used 1475 00:51:20,870 --> 00:51:19,200 in the show was of an 1476 00:51:22,870 --> 00:51:20,880 excavator or some kind of digging in 1477 00:51:24,150 --> 00:51:22,880 equipment and off the back of that i 1478 00:51:25,510 --> 00:51:24,160 mean your words will be better than mine 1479 00:51:27,190 --> 00:51:25,520 do you want to just quickly talk through 1480 00:51:29,190 --> 00:51:27,200 what happened and what we can see on the 1481 00:51:32,950 --> 00:51:29,200 show 1482 00:51:35,270 --> 00:51:32,960 yeah so yeah i was using a skid steer um 1483 00:51:36,710 --> 00:51:35,280 and i was actually carving into the side 1484 00:51:39,510 --> 00:51:36,720 of the mesa 1485 00:51:41,589 --> 00:51:39,520 i uh there was a section of ranch up on 1486 00:51:42,870 --> 00:51:41,599 the mesa that security could only access 1487 00:51:45,910 --> 00:51:42,880 by foot 1488 00:51:47,829 --> 00:51:45,920 we'd had some issues with trespassers 1489 00:51:50,790 --> 00:51:47,839 and by the time you get up on top of 1490 00:51:52,630 --> 00:51:50,800 mesa with the foot they're gone and 1491 00:51:54,309 --> 00:51:52,640 we've dealt with vandalism all kinds of 1492 00:51:56,870 --> 00:51:54,319 stuff so my 1493 00:51:58,790 --> 00:51:56,880 my fix for that was hey i'll carve a 1494 00:52:00,870 --> 00:51:58,800 road up on top so we can get up on there 1495 00:52:03,510 --> 00:52:00,880 with the utvs and then they can't outrun 1496 00:52:05,190 --> 00:52:03,520 us we can better patrol the perimeter of 1497 00:52:06,790 --> 00:52:05,200 the ranch 1498 00:52:08,470 --> 00:52:06,800 i started to do this 1499 00:52:11,109 --> 00:52:08,480 excavation 1500 00:52:14,069 --> 00:52:11,119 and uh it was during the course of doing 1501 00:52:15,750 --> 00:52:14,079 a matter of fact so that particular that 1502 00:52:17,510 --> 00:52:15,760 particular road that i was working on 1503 00:52:19,589 --> 00:52:17,520 lies unfinished today it's about three 1504 00:52:23,589 --> 00:52:19,599 quarters of the way finished 1505 00:52:23,599 --> 00:52:27,349 but 1506 00:52:31,510 --> 00:52:29,030 the one thing that i fought with the 1507 00:52:32,630 --> 00:52:31,520 network on a little bit was they kept 1508 00:52:34,950 --> 00:52:32,640 saying 1509 00:52:37,829 --> 00:52:34,960 matter of fact i i saw a rough cut of 1510 00:52:39,670 --> 00:52:37,839 the first episode and they had me saying 1511 00:52:42,309 --> 00:52:39,680 i was digging and then my head started 1512 00:52:44,470 --> 00:52:42,319 to swell up and i told them if you put 1513 00:52:46,470 --> 00:52:44,480 that in there i will sing like a canary 1514 00:52:47,349 --> 00:52:46,480 because that's not what happened 1515 00:52:48,069 --> 00:52:47,359 um 1516 00:52:53,270 --> 00:52:48,079 it 1517 00:52:54,710 --> 00:52:53,280 the matter is is 1518 00:52:56,710 --> 00:52:54,720 while we're 1519 00:52:59,670 --> 00:52:56,720 while there have been 1520 00:53:01,190 --> 00:52:59,680 literally dozens and dozens of incidents 1521 00:53:03,109 --> 00:53:01,200 where i have been digging and then 1522 00:53:05,589 --> 00:53:03,119 something bad happens 1523 00:53:06,870 --> 00:53:05,599 uh correlation 1524 00:53:08,309 --> 00:53:06,880 does not mean 1525 00:53:10,790 --> 00:53:08,319 that that 1526 00:53:13,190 --> 00:53:10,800 you can't point for sure and say oh that 1527 00:53:15,750 --> 00:53:13,200 happened because you dug it could have 1528 00:53:18,390 --> 00:53:15,760 seriously been a series of coincidences 1529 00:53:20,950 --> 00:53:18,400 that have nothing to do with each other 1530 00:53:23,109 --> 00:53:20,960 but it happens enough that it does give 1531 00:53:24,390 --> 00:53:23,119 us pause and it's like okay it's 1532 00:53:26,470 --> 00:53:24,400 something we need to keep in the back of 1533 00:53:29,430 --> 00:53:26,480 mind we need to be careful of in this 1534 00:53:31,510 --> 00:53:29,440 particular case here i am 1535 00:53:33,670 --> 00:53:31,520 defacing the mesa 1536 00:53:36,069 --> 00:53:33,680 to put this road in 1537 00:53:37,270 --> 00:53:36,079 uh just this little utv trail up the 1538 00:53:38,710 --> 00:53:37,280 side 1539 00:53:40,790 --> 00:53:38,720 and uh 1540 00:53:42,309 --> 00:53:40,800 my injury started on a saturday i hadn't 1541 00:53:44,390 --> 00:53:42,319 even been to the ranch in a couple of 1542 00:53:46,230 --> 00:53:44,400 days like it had been two days since 1543 00:53:48,390 --> 00:53:46,240 i've been at the ranch and then or three 1544 00:53:50,309 --> 00:53:48,400 days i don't remember now exactly but on 1545 00:53:52,309 --> 00:53:50,319 the back of my head on the lower part of 1546 00:53:53,990 --> 00:53:52,319 my head 1547 00:53:55,750 --> 00:53:54,000 on saturday night it was actually my 1548 00:53:57,829 --> 00:53:55,760 birthday i can remember the date perfect 1549 00:53:58,790 --> 00:53:57,839 because it started on my birthday march 1550 00:54:02,470 --> 00:53:58,800 4th 1551 00:54:04,309 --> 00:54:02,480 and uh that night when went to bed 1552 00:54:05,670 --> 00:54:04,319 i noticed that i had a sore spot on the 1553 00:54:06,630 --> 00:54:05,680 back of my head it was kind of like a 1554 00:54:08,390 --> 00:54:06,640 bruise 1555 00:54:10,549 --> 00:54:08,400 about a little bit 1556 00:54:12,069 --> 00:54:10,559 you know probably like one inch in 1557 00:54:14,870 --> 00:54:12,079 diameter 1558 00:54:19,109 --> 00:54:16,630 i didn't think much of it 1559 00:54:21,270 --> 00:54:19,119 um we'd actually spend my birthday at a 1560 00:54:23,270 --> 00:54:21,280 funeral of a loved one and so i'd been 1561 00:54:24,390 --> 00:54:23,280 sat all day inside of a church house at 1562 00:54:27,030 --> 00:54:24,400 a funeral 1563 00:54:28,710 --> 00:54:27,040 i hadn't done any physical activity 1564 00:54:31,829 --> 00:54:28,720 went to bed when i woke up sunday 1565 00:54:33,510 --> 00:54:31,839 morning that bruise had swollen up it 1566 00:54:34,790 --> 00:54:33,520 was really tight it was like a little 1567 00:54:37,589 --> 00:54:34,800 goose egg 1568 00:54:39,829 --> 00:54:37,599 and it was extremely painful 1569 00:54:42,069 --> 00:54:39,839 and so my thought was was maybe i just 1570 00:54:44,069 --> 00:54:42,079 gotten a spider bite or some type of 1571 00:54:46,630 --> 00:54:44,079 insect had bitten me 1572 00:54:49,349 --> 00:54:46,640 and i had reacted to it 1573 00:54:52,150 --> 00:54:49,359 and i told i mentioned it to my wife 1574 00:54:53,510 --> 00:54:52,160 so sunday morning we went to church and 1575 00:54:55,750 --> 00:54:53,520 uh 1576 00:54:58,069 --> 00:54:55,760 as church was going on you know as this 1577 00:54:59,190 --> 00:54:58,079 hour rolled on i started to feel sicker 1578 00:55:00,549 --> 00:54:59,200 and sicker 1579 00:55:02,549 --> 00:55:00,559 i finally told my wife that i was going 1580 00:55:03,990 --> 00:55:02,559 to leave church early i went home laid 1581 00:55:06,309 --> 00:55:04,000 down 1582 00:55:08,870 --> 00:55:06,319 and my head just hurt really really bad 1583 00:55:11,349 --> 00:55:08,880 and i felt nauseous 1584 00:55:13,910 --> 00:55:11,359 um i thought maybe i had the flu 1585 00:55:15,349 --> 00:55:13,920 i wasn't sure i you know i i at this 1586 00:55:17,270 --> 00:55:15,359 point i was pretty certain that i had 1587 00:55:18,789 --> 00:55:17,280 gotten an insect bite and it was making 1588 00:55:20,390 --> 00:55:18,799 me sick 1589 00:55:23,430 --> 00:55:20,400 and i have i'm 1590 00:55:25,589 --> 00:55:23,440 i'm otherwise extremely healthy person 1591 00:55:28,150

1631 00:57:02,150 --> 00:56:59,680 point i'm not i don't know that i was 1632 00:57:04,470 --> 00:57:02,160 thinking 100 straight 1633 00:57:07,670 --> 00:57:04,480 but my wife woke up tuesday morning saw 1634 00:57:10,309 --> 00:57:07,680 that my head had completely swollen up 1635 00:57:12,069 --> 00:57:10,319 um it there was a definite line on my 1636 00:57:14,069 --> 00:57:12,079 forehead where it had separated and it 1637 00:57:15,190 --> 00:57:14,079 continued to slowly move down my 1638 00:57:16,870 --> 00:57:15,200 forehead 1639 00:57:19,190 --> 00:57:16,880 towards my eyes 1640 00:57:20,789 --> 00:57:19,200 and so she freaked out loaded me up took 1641 00:57:23,589 --> 00:57:20,799 me to the hospital 1642 00:57:25,670 --> 00:57:23,599 uh where i was admitted and uh ended up 1643 00:57:27,030 --> 00:57:25,680 spending spending the week in the 1644 00:57:28,390 --> 00:57:27,040 hospital 1645 00:57:29,750 --> 00:57:28,400 and uh 1646 00:57:31,430 --> 00:57:29,760 by the by the end of the third day i 1647 00:57:33,670 --> 00:57:31,440 could pretty much grab the hair on my 1648 00:57:35,910 --> 00:57:33,680 head and walk my face around my skull 1649 00:57:37,990 --> 00:57:35,920 because it wasn't attached it was it was 1650 00:57:39,349 --> 00:57:38,000 detached it was pretty gruesome 1651 00:57:41,670 --> 00:57:39,359 and uh 1652 00:57:43,910 --> 00:57:41,680 you know because of my association with 1653 00:57:46,390 --> 00:57:43,920 the ranch i was only out of the hospital 1654 00:57:47,829 --> 00:57:46,400 a day or two when i was contacted by 1655 00:57:50,230 --> 00:57:47,839 um 1656 00:57:52,150 --> 00:57:50,240 brandon and and the team and asking me 1657 00:57:54,950 --> 00:57:52,160 if i'd be willing to allow some people 1658 00:57:56,150 --> 00:57:54,960 to come investigate it um 1659 00:57:58,150 --> 00:57:56,160 and so 1660 00:58:00,470 --> 00:57:58,160 i bet i had only been home a couple days 1661 00:58:02,309 --> 00:58:00,480 when the investigation into what had 1662 00:58:04,230 --> 00:58:02,319 taken place now mind you when i was in 1663 00:58:06,789 --> 00:58:04,240 the hospital my doctors could not figure 1664 00:58:08,710 --> 00:58:06,799 out what was going on i did over i think 1665 00:58:10,630 --> 00:58:08,720 they ran 43 different tests they were 1666 00:58:12,230 --> 00:58:10,640 able to rule out insect bites they were 1667 00:58:13,829 --> 00:58:12,240 able to rule out 1668 00:58:15,589 --> 00:58:13,839 every test i took 1669 00:58:17,430 --> 00:58:15,599 my doctor would come back into my room 1670 00:58:19,030 --> 00:58:17,440 after the test after the lab results 1671 00:58:19,750 --> 00:58:19,040 came back and he'd shake his head and 1672 00:58:21,430 --> 00:58:19,760 say 1673 00:58:23,990 --> 00:58:21,440 you're the healthiest sick person i've 1674 00:58:25,829 --> 00:58:24,000 ever met all my all my lab tests were 1675 00:58:27,430 --> 00:58:25,839 coming back not just good but they were 1676 00:58:30,309 --> 00:58:27,440 spot on perfect 1677 00:58:34,390 --> 00:58:30,319 when they biopsied the fluid in my head 1678 00:58:37,190 --> 00:58:34,400 um i mean it came back 100 sterile they 1679 00:58:38,789 --> 00:58:37,200 couldn't even i mean it was nothing 1680 00:58:40,870 --> 00:58:38,799 and so 1681 00:58:41,910 --> 00:58:40,880 everything that they were seeing in my 1682 00:58:44,390 --> 00:58:41,920 results 1683 00:58:46,470 --> 00:58:44,400 justified what they should be seeing 1684 00:58:48,789 --> 00:58:46,480 and my doctor used the term medically 1685 00:58:50,230 --> 00:58:48,799 impossible several times with me they 1686 00:58:52,069 --> 00:58:50,240 they could not figure out what's going 1687 00:58:53,750 --> 00:58:52,079 on and when they released me from the 1688 00:58:55,829 --> 00:58:53,760 hospital 1689 00:58:57,589 --> 00:58:55,839 i even had to sign a paper on the 1690 00:58:59,910 --> 00:58:57,599 release forms that 1691 00:59:01,750 --> 00:58:59,920 was the hospital saying we have no idea 1692 00:59:03,990 --> 00:59:01,760 what to what caused this 1693 00:59:05,589 --> 00:59:04,000 we have no idea what happened to you so 1694 00:59:07,670 --> 00:59:05,599 therefore we don't know what to tell you 1695 00:59:09,670 --> 00:59:07,680 to stay away from and 1696 00:59:11,829 --> 00:59:09,680 maybe sign that paper so then the 1697 00:59:14,549 --> 00:59:11,839 investigation site started these 1698 00:59:15,510 --> 00:59:14,559 individuals i had three individuals that 1699 00:59:17,430 --> 00:59:15,520 were 1700 00:59:18,789 --> 00:59:17,440 investigating my injury very closely and 1701 00:59:20,150 --> 00:59:18,799 and uh 1702 00:59:22,309 --> 00:59:20,160 it has been 1703 00:59:24,230 --> 00:59:22,319 over the course of the past two or three 1704 00:59:26,069 --> 00:59:24,240 years um 1705 00:59:29,589 --> 00:59:26,079 they they've had me continue to take 1706 00:59:31,670 --> 00:59:29,599 further tests and more mris more 1707 00:59:33,829 --> 00:59:31,680 all kinds of different tests and it's 1708 00:59:36,950 --> 00:59:33,839 through this investigation process as 1709 00:59:37,829 --> 00:59:36,960 time goes on and as they learn more 1710 00:59:40,150 --> 00:59:37,839 about 1711 00:59:42,069 --> 00:59:40,160 what took place and and dove into my 1712 00:59:44,150 --> 00:59:42,079 medical records and everything 1713 00:59:46,390 --> 00:59:44,160 that the confidence level has increased 1714 00:59:47,510 --> 00:59:46,400 dramatically that it is associated with 1715 00:59:53,270 --> 00:59:47,520 the ranch 1716 00:59:54,950 --> 00:59:53,280 um but you know in all honesty you can't 1717 00:59:56,309 --> 00:59:54,960 none of us can say a hundred percent 1718 00:59:58,630 --> 00:59:56,319 sure that 1719 00:59:59,589 --> 00:59:58,640 that it happened on the ranch or that it 1720 01:00:01,750 --> 00:59:59,599 you know 1721 01:00:05,030 --> 01:00:01,760 but the investigation and and where 1722 01:00:07,750 --> 01:00:05,040 we're being led shows that yes it it 1723 01:00:10,870 --> 01:00:07,760 is tied into the ranch and that's why 1724 01:00:11,829 --> 01:00:10,880 i think the network continues to 1725 01:00:15,589 --> 01:00:11,839 they 1726 01:00:16,870 --> 01:00:15,599 i cringed a lot is because like oh 1727 01:00:19,910 --> 01:00:16,880 seriously you're showing that picture 1728 01:00:21,750 --> 01:00:19,920 again um 1729 01:00:26,230 --> 01:00:21,760 but would that be the picture of the 1730 01:00:28,150 --> 01:00:26,240 scan where it shows the the fluid inside 1731 01:00:30,470 --> 01:00:28,160 both the skin and then the one that i'm 1732 01:00:32,950 --> 01:00:30,480 in the hospital where i look like total 1733 01:00:34,470 --> 01:00:32,960 i i look like oh man they show the 1734 01:00:36,870 --> 01:00:34,480 picture of me in the hospital with my 1735 01:00:37,910 --> 01:00:36,880 head bandaged and i've seen that i don't 1736 01:00:39,750 --> 01:00:37,920 know how many times i've seen that in 1737 01:00:42,630 --> 01:00:39,760 the episodes and i'm like seriously 1738 01:00:44,630 --> 01:00:42,640 you're showing that picture again so 1739 01:00:46,549 --> 01:00:44,640 um but that's one of the reasons why 1740 01:00:47,430 --> 01:00:46,559 they do is because the investigation 1741 01:00:48,789 --> 01:00:47,440 which 1742 01:00:50,789 --> 01:00:48,799 um 1743 01:00:52,390 --> 01:00:50,799 you know to be honest with the viewers 1744 01:00:54,150 --> 01:00:52,400 there's a lot about 1745 01:00:57,190 --> 01:00:54,160 there are a lot of facts with my injury 1746 01:00:58,950 --> 01:00:57,200 that are not public and i don't know 1747 01:01:00,309 --> 01:00:58,960 you know i don't know if they ever will 1748 01:01:02,309 --> 01:01:00,319 become public 1749 01:01:05,510 --> 01:01:02,319 and some of that's not really in my 1750 01:01:07,349 --> 01:01:05,520 hands um because of the things that they 1751 01:01:11,030 --> 01:01:07,359 they've unearthed so 1752 01:01:13,190 --> 01:01:11,040 um it is my it does it does appear like 1753 01:01:14,470 --> 01:01:13,200 it is associated with the ranch and the 1754 01:01:16,549 --> 01:01:14,480 investigation 1755 01:01:17,589 --> 01:01:16,559 careful careful 1756 01:01:20,309 --> 01:01:17,599 long 1757 01:01:23,030 --> 01:01:20,319 disciplined investigation has shown that 1758 01:01:26,150 --> 01:01:23,040 um indications are strong that it 1759 01:01:28,069 --> 01:01:26,160 it is ranch-related and uh and then you 1760 01:01:29,829 --> 01:01:28,079 know then comes the speculation as to 1761 01:01:30,710 --> 01:01:29,839 what caused it why 1762 01:01:32,549 --> 01:01:30,720 you know 1763 01:01:34,309 --> 01:01:32,559 and it's good to hear you say that even 1764 01:01:35,990 --> 01:01:34,319 though it's something you've experienced 1765 01:01:37,589 --> 01:01:36,000 and and you know like you say the pain 1766 01:01:39,270 --> 01:01:37,599 you went through and you've had this 1767 01:01:40,390 --> 01:01:39,280 separate investigation which i'm sure 1768 01:01:42,309 --> 01:01:40,400 people are going to love to hear like in 1769 01:01:44,230 --> 01:01:42,319 a mysterious mysterious side of it but 1770 01:01:45,430 --> 01:01:44,240 for you it's trying to get some answers 1771 01:01:47,109 --> 01:01:45,440 and if that's something that's getting 1772 01:01:48,870 --> 01:01:47,119 you closer to that that's that's really 1773 01:01:50,789 --> 01:01:48,880 good to hear and from our point of view 1774 01:01:53,030 --> 01:01:50,799 it's great you're fit and healthy but 1775 01:01:55,510 --> 01:01:53,040 then there's also the potential that 1776 01:01:58,150 --> 01:01:55,520 this could be a warning shot from which 1777 01:01:59,510 --> 01:01:58,160 whatever the phenomena is on the ranch 1778 01:02:01,029 --> 01:01:59,520 because like you say 1779 01:02:02,870 --> 01:02:01,039 yeah you've done some digging you've 1780 01:02:04,309 --> 01:02:02,880 defaced that you've changed it and if 1781 01:02:07,029 --> 01:02:04,319 that's something that we're not 1782 01:02:09,109 --> 01:02:07,039 observing is fine but actually like like 1783 01:02:10,789 --> 01:02:09,119 we know the first episode it's called 1784 01:02:11,829 --> 01:02:10,799 bad things happen when you dig for a 1785 01:02:13,510 --> 01:02:11,839 reason 1786 01:02:14,309 --> 01:02:13,520 you know something bad happened when you 1787 01:02:16,470 --> 01:02:14,319 dug 1788 01:02:18,789 --> 01:02:16,480 it does flare up again near the start of 1789 01:02:20,789 --> 01:02:18,799 the season and everyone seemed really 1790 01:02:23,589 --> 01:02:20,799 concerned i know you you take yourself 1791 01:02:25,589 --> 01:02:23,599 away from the scene don't you um how 1792 01:02:27,430 --> 01:02:25,599 much did that shape the safety protocol 1793 01:02:29,349 --> 01:02:27,440 was going forward and that have an 1794 01:02:30,710 --> 01:02:29,359 impact on the show going forward that 1795 01:02:33,029 --> 01:02:30,720 you know you'd started to feel that kind 1796 01:02:34,390 --> 01:02:33,039 of pain again 1797 01:02:36,150 --> 01:02:34,400 yeah so 1798 01:02:40,789 --> 01:02:36,160 i've had 1799 01:02:44,309 --> 01:02:40,799 and um 1800 01:02:45,829 --> 01:02:44,319 all all ranch related um 1801 01:02:47,750 --> 01:02:45,839 and 1802 01:02:49,349 --> 01:02:47,760 each time you think you've got it behind 1803 01:02:51,510 --> 01:02:49,359 you you think 1804 01:02:53,430 --> 01:02:51,520 that it's in your past 1805 01:02:55,589 --> 01:02:53,440 when that happened when we were out 1806 01:02:58,470 --> 01:02:55,599 there now it's interesting here we are 1807 01:03:00,069 --> 01:02:58,480 shining lasers up on the mesa 1808 01:03:03,190 --> 01:03:00,079 and uh 1809 01:03:05,190 --> 01:03:03,200 and then next thing i know like 1810 01:03:07,029 --> 01:03:05,200 my head is in that you know the 1811 01:03:10,069 --> 01:03:07,039 concerning thing was it wasn't like the 1812 01:03:12,630 --> 01:03:10,079 pain was excruciating i mean it it hurt 1813 01:03:14,470 --> 01:03:12,640 so i'm not gonna lie the pain hurt it 1814 01:03:16,710 --> 01:03:14,480 was not the same kind of pain that i 1815 01:03:17,829 --> 01:03:16,720 felt with my first injury 1816 01:03:19,670 --> 01:03:17,839 but it was 1817 01:03:21,750 --> 01:03:19,680 it was the fact that it was taking place 1818 01:03:23,270 --> 01:03:21,760 in that exact same spot that it started 1819 01:03:25,670 --> 01:03:23,280 the first time that was a concerning 1820 01:03:27,029 --> 01:03:25,680 thing it's like great here we go again 1821 01:03:29,589 --> 01:03:27,039 um 1822 01:03:31,910 --> 01:03:29,599 it did start to swell up again 1823 01:03:33,910 -->

say we were shining lights 1827 01:03:41,829 --> 01:03:39,680 on the mesa and my head started to swell 1828 01:03:44,150 --> 01:03:41,839 up i'll do it because we were out there 1829 01:03:46,710 --> 01:03:44,160 shining lights on the mesa and my head 1830 01:03:48,789 --> 01:03:46,720 started to swell up i was on the ranch 1831 01:03:50,630 --> 01:03:48,799 and this this 1832 01:03:54,230 --> 01:03:50,640 starts to happen again 1833 01:03:56,470 --> 01:03:54,240 and uh it it did shake us and you know 1834 01:03:58,470 --> 01:03:56,480 the whole 1835 01:03:59,430 --> 01:03:58,480 there was a whole discussion that went 1836 01:04:01,910 --> 01:03:59,440 on 1837 01:04:04,789 --> 01:04:01,920 in my absence and then also you know i 1838 01:04:06,870 --> 01:04:04,799 was taking i took some phone calls off 1839 01:04:08,390 --> 01:04:06,880 site too while this whole thing's going 1840 01:04:11,109 --> 01:04:08,400 on 1841 01:04:13,589 --> 01:04:11,119 uh 1842 01:04:15,589 --> 01:04:13,599 brandon is not about to let his 1843 01:04:16,870 --> 01:04:15,599 curiosity 1844 01:04:18,710 --> 01:04:16,880 be 1845 01:04:20,309 --> 01:04:18,720 more important than the health of his 1846 01:04:23,430 --> 01:04:20,319 team brandon 1847 01:04:26,230 --> 01:04:23,440 is very very people oriented 1848 01:04:28,870 --> 01:04:26,240 and his his concern is genuine it's not 1849 01:04:29,829 --> 01:04:28,880 dramatized it's not contrived 1850 01:04:34,069 --> 01:04:29,839 and 1851 01:04:36,309 --> 01:04:34,079 was seriously saying i don't know if 1852 01:04:37,109 --> 01:04:36,319 this is worth it guys like 1853 01:04:39,270 --> 01:04:37,119 um 1854 01:04:41,750 --> 01:04:39,280 he had a conversation with me he's like 1855 01:04:43,670 --> 01:04:41,760 tom like is it really worth it are we 1856 01:04:45,029 --> 01:04:43,680 playing with fire should we should we 1857 01:04:47,510 --> 01:04:45,039 pull out 1858 01:04:50,069 --> 01:04:47,520 you know i i don't want this isn't worth 1859 01:04:51,750 --> 01:04:50,079 somebody that i care about deeply 1860 01:04:52,630 --> 01:04:51,760 getting hurt 1861 01:04:56,950 --> 01:04:52,640 and 1862 01:04:59,589 --> 01:04:56,960 of that discussion on tv i think it's in 1863 01:05:00,630 --> 01:04:59,599 episode three when i come back 1864 01:05:01,670 --> 01:05:00,640 um 1865 01:05:04,630 --> 01:05:01,680 but 1866 01:05:06,549 --> 01:05:04,640 it is something that i can't 1867 01:05:08,230 --> 01:05:06,559 in my heart i can't believe that all 1868 01:05:08,950 --> 01:05:08,240 this stuff that's happening on the ranch 1869 01:05:10,789 --> 01:05:08,960 is 1870 01:05:13,029 --> 01:05:10,799 like honoring the little barbed wire 1871 01:05:15,589 --> 01:05:13,039 fence that goes around the border that 1872 01:05:18,870 --> 01:05:15,599 somehow that fence is keeping all the 1873 01:05:20,630 --> 01:05:18,880 ghosts and goblins in right and so 1874 01:05:22,069 --> 01:05:20,640 there's a good chance that a lot of the 1875 01:05:23,510 --> 01:05:22,079 things that we're seeing on the ranch 1876 01:05:26,069 --> 01:05:23,520 are happening 1877 01:05:27,829 --> 01:05:26,079 in the surrounding area as well which we 1878 01:05:29,430 --> 01:05:27,839 have a lot of people 1879 01:05:31,270 --> 01:05:29,440 even though we're rural you know you 1880 01:05:34,789 --> 01:05:31,280 have hundreds if not thousands of people 1881 01:05:37,190 --> 01:05:34,799 within a short approximate distance that 1882 01:05:39,589 --> 01:05:37,200 um that called us home 1883 01:05:42,069 --> 01:05:39,599 and uh and as long as we've got somebody 1884 01:05:45,510 --> 01:05:42,079 like brandon that has the money and the 1885 01:05:46,710 --> 01:05:45,520 the resources to come and investigate it 1886 01:05:48,150 --> 01:05:46,720 um i 1887 01:05:51,190 --> 01:05:48,160 i had a little bit of fear in my heart 1888 01:05:52,789 --> 01:05:51,200 like don't pull out because you know 1889 01:05:54,470 --> 01:05:52,799 yeah bigelow came and investigated and 1890 01:05:56,230 --> 01:05:54,480 what did we get out of it 1891 01:05:58,309 --> 01:05:56,240 we don't know what we got 1892 01:05:59,829 --> 01:05:58,319 nothing came of it they locked 1893 01:06:01,349 --> 01:05:59,839 everything behind so as long as we've 1894 01:06:02,710 --> 01:06:01,359 got someone like brandon that's willing 1895 01:06:04,630 --> 01:06:02,720 to foot the bill 1896 01:06:07,109 --> 01:06:04,640 and pay for this investigation i don't 1897 01:06:09,349 --> 01:06:07,119 want to lose that opportunity and we owe 1898 01:06:10,710 --> 01:06:09,359 it to the surrounding areas to see if 1899 01:06:12,549 --> 01:06:10,720 this is something that's just on the 1900 01:06:14,390 --> 01:06:12,559 ranch or maybe there's something 1901 01:06:15,990 --> 01:06:14,400 dangerous in the surrounding areas as 1902 01:06:17,109 --> 01:06:16,000 well and so 1903 01:06:20,069 --> 01:06:17,119 um 1904 01:06:22,470 --> 01:06:20,079 we we pushed on and i encouraged him not 1905 01:06:24,150 --> 01:06:22,480 to not to run but it shaped 1906 01:06:26,630 --> 01:06:24,160 the rest of the season i think what it 1907 01:06:28,230 --> 01:06:26,640 did is it made travis because travis 1908 01:06:29,270 --> 01:06:28,240 thought we were all a bunch of scaredy 1909 01:06:30,829 --> 01:06:29,280 cats 1910 01:06:34,150 --> 01:06:30,839 and 1911 01:06:36,230 --> 01:06:34,160 uh matter of fact his exact words to us 1912 01:06:38,390 --> 01:06:36,240 before the tv series even started as he 1913 01:06:40,309 --> 01:06:38,400 thought we were all batshit crazy 1914 01:06:42,950 --> 01:06:40,319 and um 1915 01:06:44,870 --> 01:06:42,960 i think that my injury 1916 01:06:47,589 --> 01:06:44,880 kind of snapped him out of it 1917 01:06:49,589 --> 01:06:47,599 and brought made it real for him that 1918 01:06:51,349 --> 01:06:49,599 this is a this is not something we're 1919 01:06:53,589 --> 01:06:51,359 just goofing around about 1920 01:06:55,430 --> 01:06:53,599 we're not just saying these things to 1921 01:06:57,270 --> 01:06:55,440 make it sound mysterious 1922 01:07:00,630 --> 01:06:57,280 like there are real effects going on 1923 01:07:02,789 --> 01:07:00,640 here and i think if anything my injury 1924 01:07:04,789 --> 01:07:02,799 made travis realize that there are 1925 01:07:06,789 --> 01:07:04,799 consequences and that the the 1926 01:07:08,710 --> 01:07:06,799 investigation needs to be done 1927 01:07:10,789 --> 01:07:08,720 but it needs to be done safely it needs 1928 01:07:12,630 --> 01:07:10,799 to be done cautiously i know that's kind 1929 01:07:14,230 --> 01:07:12,640 of when his view of dragon changed 1930 01:07:16,789 --> 01:07:14,240 because 1931 01:07:18,870 --> 01:07:16,799 at that point he realized that we have 1932 01:07:19,910 --> 01:07:18,880 good reason to be cautious about what 1933 01:07:21,510 --> 01:07:19,920 we're doing 1934 01:07:23,349 --> 01:07:21,520 and there's a reason why we haven't just 1935 01:07:26,069 --> 01:07:23,359 gone been running around poking the 1936 01:07:27,990 --> 01:07:26,079 hornet's nest so it did change the rest 1937 01:07:29,510 --> 01:07:28,000 of the season it'll change the rest of 1938 01:07:31,430 --> 01:07:29,520 the investigation as far as the show 1939 01:07:32,789 --> 01:07:31,440 goes because i think that's what made it 1940 01:07:34,549 --> 01:07:32,799 real like oh 1941 01:07:36,150 --> 01:07:34,559 man somebody like 1942 01:07:38,710 --> 01:07:36,160 okay people could get her and then you 1943 01:07:40,309 --> 01:07:38,720 see later on in the later episodes that 1944 01:07:42,069 --> 01:07:40,319 travis himself 1945 01:07:43,190 --> 01:07:42,079 starts to experience some of these same 1946 01:07:45,029 --> 01:07:43,200 things 1947 01:07:47,589 --> 01:07:45,039 and so um 1948 01:07:50,630 --> 01:07:47,599 it uh it validated the fact that we need 1949 01:07:52,870 --> 01:07:50,640 to be we need to be cautious 1950 01:07:54,470 --> 01:07:52,880 absolutely and that incident was 1951 01:07:55,910 --> 01:07:54,480 highlighted you know 1952 01:07:57,510 --> 01:07:55,920 again hopefully something that doesn't 1953 01:08:00,390 --> 01:07:57,520 happen again to you because it can't be 1954 01:08:02,390 --> 01:08:00,400 a nice thing to experience however well 1955 01:08:03,910 --> 01:08:02,400 anything that the cameras did or didn't 1956 01:08:05,270 --> 01:08:03,920 pick up that you would put alongside 1957 01:08:07,190 --> 01:08:05,280 that as some of the strangest things 1958 01:08:10,630 --> 01:08:07,200 that you've been a part of or witnessed 1959 01:08:12,870 --> 01:08:10,640 well while you've been on the ranch 1960 01:08:14,710 --> 01:08:12,880 yeah so my injury is definitely the top 1961 01:08:16,709 --> 01:08:14,720 and then um 1962 01:08:19,910 --> 01:08:16,719 because i spend so much time on the 1963 01:08:21,829 --> 01:08:19,920 ranch um 1964 01:08:23,669 --> 01:08:21,839 as far as my physical prep like 1965 01:08:24,789 --> 01:08:23,679 physically present on the ranch i i 1966 01:08:26,470 --> 01:08:24,799 spend 1967 01:08:28,229 --> 01:08:26,480 just as much if not more time than 1968 01:08:30,550 --> 01:08:28,239 anybody else on the ranch team and have 1969 01:08:31,910 --> 01:08:30,560 done since day one 1970 01:08:34,390 --> 01:08:31,920 um i 1971 01:08:36,070 --> 01:08:34,400 i've had the opportunity blessing or 1972 01:08:38,070 --> 01:08:36,080 curse i'm not sure 1973 01:08:39,749 --> 01:08:38,080 of having a lot of experiences on the 1974 01:08:40,630 --> 01:08:39,759 ranch i've experienced 1975 01:08:41,829 --> 01:08:40,640 hair 1976 01:08:43,910 --> 01:08:41,839 um 1977 01:08:45,669 --> 01:08:43,920 and this is a feeling where i didn't see 1978 01:08:48,870 --> 01:08:45,679 anything 1979 01:08:50,630 --> 01:08:48,880 i couldn't like i couldn't tangibly see 1980 01:08:52,950 --> 01:08:50,640 what the danger was 1981 01:08:55,030 --> 01:08:52,960 but there was like a neurological or 1982 01:08:58,149 --> 01:08:55,040 psychological effect i think 1983 01:09:01,349 --> 01:08:58,159 i think it had to do some type of 1984 01:09:05,349 --> 01:09:01,359 we've recorded these high 1985 01:09:09,510 --> 01:09:08,149 uh my brain's shortened out now we've re 1986 01:09:11,430 --> 01:09:09,520 we've registered a lot of these radio 1987 01:09:13,349 --> 01:09:11,440 frequencies that are extremely high 1988 01:09:16,070 --> 01:09:13,359 borderline dangerous 1989 01:09:17,110 --> 01:09:16,080 and there have been times on this ranch 1990 01:09:18,870 --> 01:09:17,120 and they've 1991 01:09:20,390 --> 01:09:18,880 they've happened at night 1992 01:09:22,870 --> 01:09:20,400 um i've been over there doing my 1993 01:09:24,870 --> 01:09:22,880 responsibilities one was one night was 1994 01:09:26,789 --> 01:09:24,880 when i was plowing snow and i actually 1995 01:09:29,749 --> 01:09:26,799 heard an audible voice associated with 1996 01:09:32,309 --> 01:09:29,759 this and when i and it told me to stop 1997 01:09:35,990 --> 01:09:32,319 and don't go any further 1998 01:09:38,709 --> 01:09:36,000 and uh when i ignored this voice i mean 1999 01:09:40,870 --> 01:09:38,719 it i know for a fact it was not audible 2000 01:09:42,390 --> 01:09:40,880 like it happened inside my head 2001 01:09:44,709 --> 01:09:42,400 but i couldn't tell like you couldn't 2002 01:09:47,829 --> 01:09:44,719 have told me the difference it sounded 2003 01:09:49,269 --> 01:09:47,839 just as if you're talking to me 2004 01:09:50,709 --> 01:09:49,279 but i know it wasn't audible because i 2005 01:09:52,789 --> 01:09:50,719 was plowing snow 2006 01:09:54,550 --> 01:09:52,799 my skid steer was making so much noise 2007 01:09:56,790 --> 01:09:54,560 and then i had earbuds in my ears 2008 01:09:58,310 --> 01:09:56,800 listening to an audio book so somebody 2009 01:10:00,310 --> 01:09:58,320 could have been standing three feet away 2010 01:10:01,990 --> 01:10:00,320 from me yelling at me and i may not have 2011 01:10:04,709 --> 01:10:02,000 heard of them hurt them because of all 2012 01:10:06,709 --> 01:10:04,719 the noise the machine was making 2013 01:10:08,870 --> 01:10:06,719 but i heard the voice crystal clear 2014 01:10:11,990 --> 01:10:08,880 which tells me it came from inside my 2015 01:10:15,030 --> 01:10:12,000 head not outside my head i ignored the 2016 01:10:17,750 --> 01:10:15,040 warning it told me to not go any further 2017 01:10:19,990 --> 01:10:17,760 and uh immediately 2018 01:10:20,950 --> 01:10:20,000 when i when i continued down 2019 01:10:21,750 --> 01:10:20,960 on 2020 01:10:23,030 --> 01:10:21,760 uh 2021 01:10:24,630 --> 01:10:23,040 when i came 2022 01:10:25,910 --> 01:10:24,640 i was plowing snow so i went back to the 2023 01:10:27,350 --> 01:10:25,920 ranch house and i was coming back and 2024 01:10:29,270 --> 01:10:27,360 when i got to that point that i'd been 2025 01:10:31,030 --> 01:10:29,280 warned not to go any further i just 2026 01:10:33,270 --> 01:10:31,040 thought well that's stupid 2027 01:10:35,110 --> 01:10:33,280 um i'm just imagining this stuff and i 2028 01:10:36,070 --> 01:10:35,120 kept going and i only made it maybe 100 2029 01:10:37,750 --> 01:10:36,080 feet 2030 01:10:38,550 --> 01:10:37,760 and all of a sudden this terror gripped 2031 01:10:40,149 --> 01:10:38,560 me 2032 01:10:41,990 --> 01:10:40,159 this fear 2033 01:10:43,510 --> 01:10:42,000 and it's unlike anything i've ever 2034 01:10:45,830 --> 01:10:43,520 experienced in my entire life i've been 2035 01:10:48,470 --> 01:10:45,840 scared before but nothing like this 2036 01:10:50,149 --> 01:10:48,480 and it became so bad that i was shaking 2037 01:10:51,910 --> 01:10:50,159 like i i was like i had parkinson's 2038 01:10:53,910 --> 01:10:51,920 disease i was shaking so severely i 2039 01:10:56,470 --> 01:10:53,920 couldn't control it 2040 01:10:58,870 --> 01:10:56,480 and uh and these these times when this 2041 01:11:00,870 --> 01:10:58,880 fear comes over me the psychological or 2042 01:11:02,709 --> 01:11:00,880 the neurological effects 2043 01:11:04,390 --> 01:11:02,719 i had one well this particular time i 2044 01:11:05,830 --> 01:11:04,400 shook for about 12 hours before i 2045 01:11:07,590 --> 01:11:05,840 stopped shaking 2046 01:11:09,669 --> 01:11:07,600 i couldn't control it it was it was 2047 01:11:12,070 --> 01:11:09,679 outside of my ability to control it the 2048 01:11:14,630 --> 01:11:12,080 next time it was almost 24 hours before 2049 01:11:15,590 --> 01:11:14,640 i stopped shaking so i've had that 2050 01:11:18,229 --> 01:11:15,600 happen 2051 01:11:20,470 --> 01:11:18,239 um i've seen 2052 01:11:23,910 --> 01:11:20,480 um 2053 01:11:25,750 --> 01:11:23,920 i've seen things disa like 2054 01:11:28,149 --> 01:11:25,760 there was one day i

and catch it 2061 01:11:44,550 --> 01:11:41,360 and when i got up to it it wasn't there 2062 01:11:46,070 --> 01:11:44,560 like it just vaporized so it was like a 2063 01:11:48,550 --> 01:11:46,080 mirage 2064 01:11:49,669 --> 01:11:48,560 type thing um 2065 01:11:53,510 --> 01:11:49,679 i've 2066 01:11:56,390 --> 01:11:53,520 phone you see on the episode where the 2067 01:11:57,990 --> 01:11:56,400 cell phones start going crazy i've had 2068 01:12:00,310 --> 01:11:58,000 my phone gripped 2069 01:12:03,510 --> 01:12:00,320 um i've seen 2070 01:12:05,110 --> 01:12:03,520 batteries go from 100 to zero in in 2071 01:12:08,390 --> 01:12:05,120 under two minutes 2072 01:12:11,030 --> 01:12:08,400 i've had um i'm trying to think i've had 2073 01:12:14,709 --> 01:12:11,040 a lot of things with my equipment 2074 01:12:17,910 --> 01:12:16,390 so many that i could i could literally 2075 01:12:20,470 --> 01:12:17,920 spend two hours just telling you about 2076 01:12:21,990 --> 01:12:20,480 the experience maybe maybe four hours 2077 01:12:23,830 --> 01:12:22,000 talking about the experiences i've seen 2078 01:12:25,830 --> 01:12:23,840 but i've i've 2079 01:12:27,510 --> 01:12:25,840 i've felt i've seen shadow figures over 2080 01:12:29,110 --> 01:12:27,520 in the homesteads 2081 01:12:30,390 --> 01:12:29,120 um 2082 01:12:32,149 --> 01:12:30,400 so 2083 01:12:33,910 --> 01:12:32,159 all kinds of strange 2084 01:12:35,830 --> 01:12:33,920 crazy things 2085 01:12:37,510 --> 01:12:35,840 and that's the beauty of the ranch isn't 2086 01:12:39,590 --> 01:12:37,520 it that and the area that there's it's 2087 01:12:41,910 --> 01:12:39,600 not just one phenomena it isn't just 2088 01:12:44,310 --> 01:12:41,920 those ufos it's not just there's there's 2089 01:12:45,510 --> 01:12:44,320 lights on the mesa or you know 2090 01:12:47,990 --> 01:12:45,520 it's not you're getting these weird 2091 01:12:49,189 --> 01:12:48,000 sounds coming from underneath the homes 2092 01:12:51,110 --> 01:12:49,199 uh 2093 01:12:53,030 --> 01:12:51,120 there's a lot going on you know huge 2094 01:12:54,709 --> 01:12:53,040 dire wolf type creatures portals 2095 01:12:56,709 --> 01:12:54,719 potentially opening up left right and 2096 01:12:59,189 --> 01:12:56,719 center so that that's the kind of 2097 01:13:01,430 --> 01:12:59,199 mistake and then the nature of the ranch 2098 01:13:03,430 --> 01:13:01,440 obviously we've got a second series 2099 01:13:04,630 --> 01:13:03,440 brandon himself has said should be 2100 01:13:06,950 --> 01:13:04,640 filming

of expect from a second 2104 01:13:14,229 --> 01:13:12,560 season and even if you're kind of bound 2105 01:13:16,070 --> 01:13:14,239 by networks that you can't discuss that 2106 01:13:19,430 --> 01:13:16,080 kind of detail you know what would you 2107 01:13:24,470 --> 01:13:19,440 like to see in a second season 2108 01:13:26,070 --> 01:13:24,480 well um yeah so brandon being the boss 2109 01:13:27,270 --> 01:13:26,080 can get away with a lot of things i 2110 01:13:29,830 --> 01:13:27,280 can't so 2111 01:13:31,189 --> 01:13:29,840 i i took his lead you know he tweeted 2112 01:13:32,950

01:13:43,990 --> 01:13:41,520 that with people yet and it hasn't been 2119 01:13:45,750 --> 01:13:44,000 made official so i'll let brandon take 2120 01:13:49,189 --> 01:13:45,760 the lead on that stuff he seems to be 2121 01:13:53,910 --> 01:13:51,030 but i will say 2122 01:13:55,350 --> 01:13:53,920 um i and i've been vocal about this with 2123 01:13:58,470 --> 01:13:55,360 brandon and i've

01:14:06,560 yeah 2131 01:14:11,110 --> 01:14:07,920 what would we do 2132 01:14:13,030 --> 01:14:11,120 uh there's things 2133 01:14:15,590 --> 01:14:13,040 we we discovered a lot of things in 2134 01:14:19,430 --> 01:14:15,600 episode one i mean in in season one that 2135 01:14:20,630 --> 01:14:19,440 i'd like to go back and revisit and 2136 01:14:24,310 --> 01:14:20,640 and 2137 01:14:25,270 --> 01:14:24,320 investigate out 2138 01:14:27,189 --> 01:14:25,280 um 2139 01:14:29,430 --> 01:14:27,199 there's a lot of loose ends left hanging 2140 01:14:30,950 --> 01:14:29,440 that that need followed up on 2141 01:14:32,310 --> 01:14:30,960 um 2142 01:14:34,229 --> 01:14:32,320 in addition 2143 01:14:35,030 --> 01:14:34,239 there's things in second season that i 2144 01:14:37,350 --> 01:14:35,040 hope 2145 01:14:40,149 --> 01:14:37,360 i told i told the network 2146 01:14:42,790 --> 01:14:40,159 that i sincerely hope in second season 2147 01:14:45,430 --> 01:14:42,800 that they will be less 2148 01:14:47,270 --> 01:14:45,440 um in season one they did not 2149 01:14:49,750 --> 01:14:47,280 they they have this rule like they 2150 01:14:52,070 --> 01:14:49,760 called it the fourth curtain and that is 2151 01:14:53,669 --> 01:14:52,080 that they don't want to become the story 2152 01:14:57,669 --> 01:14:53,679 like they're there to capture the story 2153 01:15:00,470 --> 01:14:57,679 they don't want to become a story and so 2154 01:15:02,630 --> 01:15:00,480 the the camera the the production crew 2155 01:15:05,270 --> 01:15:02,640 experienced a lot of things themselves i 2156 01:15:07,750 --> 01:15:05,280 mean their equipment was not immune to 2157 01:15:10,470 --> 01:15:07,760 the to the anomalies that take place on 2158 01:15:12,790 --> 01:15:10,480 the ranch they struggled with batteries 2159 01:15:15,030 --> 01:15:12,800 going dead they struggled with getting 2160 01:15:17,669 --> 01:15:15,040 equipment to work properly matter of 2161 01:15:20,390 --> 01:15:17,679 fact there's a huge there's a huge 2162 01:15:22,870 --> 01:15:20,400 section of uh filming that we did that 2163 01:15:24,950 --> 01:15:22,880 got wiped mysteriously 2164 01:15:26,870 --> 01:15:24,960 um 2165 01:15:29,430 --> 01:15:26,880 on a section they 2166 01:15:30,870 --> 01:15:29,440 they experienced strange things on that 2167 01:15:33,430 --> 01:15:30,880 ranch as well 2168 01:15:34,550 --> 01:15:33,440 and unfortunately i feel like when you 2169 01:15:36,070 --> 01:15:34,560 when you don't 2170 01:15:37,750 --> 01:15:36,080 document those 2171 01:15:41,189 --> 01:15:37,760 then it leads to the criticism and 2172 01:15:43,830 --> 01:15:41,199 justly so that says well how come you 2173 01:15:45,750 --> 01:15:43,840 know why is it that that guy's 35 000 2174 01:15:47,990 --> 01:15:45,760 drone won't work but the network's drone 2175 01:15:49,669 --> 01:15:48,000 works just fine to capture it it must be 2176 01:15:51,669 --> 01:15:49,679 made up it must be 2177 01:15:52,709 --> 01:15:51,679 you know this is just fake 2178 01:15:55,590 --> 01:15:52,719 and so 2179 01:15:57,110 --> 01:15:55,600 i really hope that see season two 2180 01:15:59,430 --> 01:15:57,120 that when 2181 01:16:00,790 --> 01:15:59,440 not if but when they experience some of 2182 01:16:02,630 --> 01:16:00,800 the same troubles that we're 2183 01:16:04,470 --> 01:16:02,640 experiencing 2184 01:16:06,870 --> 01:16:04,480 the audience can see that and be shown 2185 01:16:07,669 --> 01:16:06,880 behind the curtain and be like oh 2186 01:16:09,990 --> 01:16:07,679 like 2187 01:16:12,470 --> 01:16:10,000 the network's cameras just went down and 2188 01:16:15,189 --> 01:16:12,480 we don't know why we can't figure it out 2189 01:16:17,110 --> 01:16:15,199 rather than that never being shown so i 2190 01:16:19,189 --> 01:16:17,120 hope that that is shown 2191 01:16:20,550 --> 01:16:19,199 um i hope 2192 01:16:30,310 --> 01:16:20,560 that 2193 01:16:31,990 --> 01:16:30,320 technically every object in the sky is a 2194 01:16:33,350 --> 01:16:32,000 ufo 2195 01:16:35,030 --> 01:16:33,360 for at least 2196 01:16:37,030 --> 01:16:35,040 a minute until your brain registers 2197 01:16:38,950 --> 01:16:37,040 that's a plane well that's a helicopter 2198 01:16:40,870 --> 01:16:38,960 or that's a drone 2199 01:16:44,229 --> 01:16:40,880 um 2200 01:16:45,990 --> 01:16:44,239 we see so many ufos on the ranch it's 2201 01:16:48,709 --> 01:16:46,000 unbelievable 2202 01:16:50,790 --> 01:16:48,719 but they might be a ufo for a day they 2203 01:16:52,550 --> 01:16:50,800 might be a ufo for a week they might be 2204 01:16:55,590 --> 01:16:52,560 a ufo for a year 2205 01:16:57,590 --> 01:16:55,600 until we finally are able to crack the 2206 01:16:59,990 --> 01:16:57,600 mystery of what that what oh that was 2207 01:17:02,630 --> 01:17:00,000 that was flight 1248 2208 01:17:04,709 --> 01:17:02,640 united you know going to london 2209 01:17:08,950 --> 01:17:04,719 and for whatever reason it didn't show 2210 01:17:13,189 --> 01:17:08,960 up or whatever it is and truth be told 2211 01:17:17,030 --> 01:17:13,199 98 or 99 of the ufos we see on the ranch 2212 01:17:19,310 --> 01:17:17,040 yeah they're ufos for a time but then as 2213 01:17:21,590 --> 01:17:19,320 we do the investigation as eric does his 2214 01:17:23,110 --> 01:17:21,600 post-processing on the video and all 2215 01:17:26,950 --> 01:17:23,120 that 2216 01:17:27,990 --> 01:17:26,960 of mundane 2217 01:17:29,030 --> 01:17:28,000 origin 2218 01:17:30,470 -->

people can see 2222 01:17:39,590 --> 01:17:37,920 we do our due diligence and uh we're not 2223 01:17:41,830 --> 01:17:39,600 just drinking kool-aid 2224 01:17:42,950 --> 01:17:41,840 not every fly on the camera lens is a 2225 01:17:45,350 --> 01:17:42,960 ufo 2226 01:17:46,390 --> 01:17:45,360 not not every snowflake out there is an 2227 01:17:47,510 --> 01:17:46,400 orb 2228 01:17:50,470 --> 01:17:47,520 and uh 2229 01:17:52,229 --> 01:17:50,480 but if that's all you show on television 2230 01:17:53,430 --> 01:17:52,239 and that's all the audience sees then 2231 01:17:55,510 --> 01:17:53,440 how are they supposed to know that 2232 01:17:58,149 --> 01:17:55,520 you've eliminated you know you're 2233 01:17:59,189 --> 01:17:58,159 calling this uh unknown 2234 01:18:01,430 --> 01:17:59,199 object 2235 01:18:03,350 --> 01:18:01,440 because you've already eliminated out 2236 01:18:05,430 --> 01:18:03,360 the insects and the bugs and the planes 2237 01:18:06,630 --> 01:18:05,440 and the drones and the helicopters and 2238 01:18:09,110 --> 01:18:06,640 the dust 2239 01:18:09,990 --> 01:18:09,120 and all the things that can look 2240 01:18:12,470 --> 01:18:10,000 really 2241 01:18:13,750 --> 01:18:12,480 it can look damn impressive in a camera 2242 01:18:17,189 --> 01:18:13,760 but actually at the end of the day it's 2243 01:18:19,110 --> 01:18:17,199 just regular if they'll allow us to show 2244 01:18:22,310 --> 01:18:19,120 the guys kind of going through that 2245 01:18:25,189 --> 01:18:22,320 process of eliminating it and finding 2246 01:18:27,350 --> 01:18:25,199 out that oh that was really cool to see 2247 01:18:28,790 --> 01:18:27,360 but at the end of the day that was 2248 01:18:32,229 --> 01:18:28,800 actually a piece of dust that was 2249 01:18:33,189 --> 01:18:32,239 reflecting the infrared camera lens 2250 01:18:34,870 --> 01:18:33,199 you know 2251 01:18:36,550 --> 01:18:34,880 and so i think that will help bring 2252 01:18:38,390 --> 01:18:36,560 credibility to the show if the audience 2253 01:18:39,750 --> 01:18:38,400 is able to see behind the curtain just a 2254 01:18:41,590 --> 01:18:39,760 little bit more 2255 01:18:43,350 --> 01:18:41,600 and see and i don't want to call them 2256 01:18:45,590 --> 01:18:43,360 failures because it's not a failure but 2257 01:18:46,550 --> 01:18:45,600 see some of the debunking that takes 2258 01:18:48,310 --> 01:18:46,560 place 2259 01:18:50,630 --> 01:18:48,320 you know that that would be great i mean 2260 01:18:52,870 --> 01:18:50,640 and you would think especially in 2020 2261 01:18:54,790 --> 01:18:52,880 or more than likely 2021 when we 2262 01:18:57,110 --> 01:18:54,800 potentially get to see a second season 2263 01:18:58,630 --> 01:18:57,120 if they make a second season of course 2264 01:19:00,229 --> 01:18:58,640 right you've got you've got a lot of 2265 01:19:01,910 --> 01:19:00,239 different platforms where you could put 2266 01:19:03,510 --> 01:19:01,920 content like that but if they don't want 2267 01:19:06,229 --> 01:19:03,520 it and i mean show that they still want 2268 01:19:08,070 --> 01:19:06,239 to make you know dramatized or you know 2269 01:19:09,430 --> 01:19:08,080 really focus on the entertainment aspect 2270 01:19:11,270 --> 01:19:09,440 and you talked about you know some of 2271 01:19:13,189 --> 01:19:11,280 the boring science or the more mundane 2272 01:19:15,110 --> 01:19:13,199 things you could put that on a youtube 2273 01:19:16,790 --> 01:19:15,120 or you could put that on twitter or 2274 01:19:18,310 --> 01:19:16,800 whatever kind of platform they want if 2275 01:19:20,310 --> 01:19:18,320 they want to put on their own website 2276 01:19:21,830 --> 01:19:20,320 you know here's bonus content for people 2277 01:19:23,350 --> 01:19:21,840 and yeah i'm sure there would be a 2278 01:19:24,709 --> 01:19:23,360 market for that because that's that's 2279 01:19:25,750 --> 01:19:24,719 something that definitely when i go 2280 01:19:27,990 --> 01:19:25,760 through the twitter feeds and the 2281 01:19:29,910 --> 01:19:28,000 message boards people question these 2282 01:19:31,990 --> 01:19:29,920 things so the interest is definitely 2283 01:19:34,149 --> 01:19:32,000 there that that probably takes us nicely 2284 01:19:35,590 --> 01:19:34,159 thomas onto some listener questions um 2285 01:19:37,590 --> 01:19:35,600 because the first one is linked into 2286 01:19:39,990 --> 01:19:37,600 what you've you've just said there so 2287 01:19:42,229 --> 01:19:40,000 ashley um had a few questions for you 2288 01:19:44,709 --> 01:19:42,239 what kind of experiments would thomas 2289 01:19:46,870 --> 01:19:44,719 and the team like to do next and also 2290 01:19:48,830 --> 01:19:46,880 are there any experiments you've done 2291 01:19:50,870 --> 01:19:48,840 you think you could have improved 2292 01:19:53,189 --> 01:19:50,880 on um 2293 01:19:56,470 --> 01:19:53,199 i want better gpr 2294 01:19:59,430 --> 01:19:56,480 so if if thomas gets to call the shots 2295 01:20:01,189 --> 01:19:59,440 and uh and i get to do this then 2296 01:20:03,030 --> 01:20:01,199 um i want better 2297 01:20:05,590 --> 01:20:03,040 not i'm not saying the guys that did 2298 01:20:08,390 --> 01:20:05,600 season one didn't do a good job i'm 2299 01:20:13,830 --> 01:20:08,400 saying they weren't able to do enough of 2300 01:20:18,470 --> 01:20:16,470 and i want to investigate further over 2301 01:20:20,790 --> 01:20:18,480 the homestead 2 2302 01:20:23,030 --> 01:20:20,800 um you know that 2303 01:20:25,350 --> 01:20:23,040 where we did the drilling 2304 01:20:26,390 --> 01:20:25,360 i think that we need to look into that 2305 01:20:28,629 --> 01:20:26,400 more 2306 01:20:30,550 --> 01:20:28,639 um you know it's funny i actually made a 2307 01:20:33,430 --> 01:20:30,560 whole list the other day because 2308 01:20:34,950 --> 01:20:33,440 i did submit a list saying girl you know 2309 01:20:36,390 --> 01:20:34,960 if there were season two these are some 2310 01:20:38,629 --> 01:20:36,400 of the ideas that i would i would like 2311 01:20:39,669 --> 01:20:38,639 to explore further if i had if i had to 2312 01:20:40,550 --> 01:20:39,679 say 2313 01:20:42,070 --> 01:20:40,560 um 2314 01:20:43,990 --> 01:20:42,080 but 2315 01:20:45,830 --> 01:20:44,000 we we triangulated 2316 01:20:47,830 --> 01:20:45,840 i think one of the biggest things is we 2317 01:20:49,750 --> 01:20:47,840 keep picking up these strange signals 2318 01:20:51,110 --> 01:20:49,760 these strange rfs 2319 01:20:52,709 --> 01:20:51,120 and 2320 01:20:54,790 --> 01:20:52,719 when we've done the rockets when we did 2321 01:20:56,950 --> 01:20:54,800 the weather balloon 2322 01:20:58,950 --> 01:20:56,960 the data seems to suggest that the 2323 01:21:00,709 --> 01:20:58,960 higher up we're going the stronger the 2324 01:21:01,910 --> 01:21:00,719 signals are getting which 2325 01:21:03,430 --> 01:21:01,920 would be 2326 01:21:04,870 --> 01:21:03,440 opposite of what 2327 01:21:05,990 --> 01:21:04,880 should be happening according to the 2328 01:21:09,350 --> 01:21:06,000 scientists 2329 01:21:10,870 --> 01:21:09,360 so i would really like to drill down and 2330 01:21:13,110 --> 01:21:10,880 go higher 2331 01:21:14,790 --> 01:21:13,120 figure out a way to put equipment up 2332 01:21:17,110 --> 01:21:14,800 higher for longer 2333 01:21:18,870 --> 01:21:17,120 and get some good data that's not just a 2334 01:21:20,390 --> 01:21:18,880 few seconds long like you know the 2335 01:21:22,470 --> 01:21:20,400 rockets were great but 2336 01:21:24,470 --> 01:21:22,480 you're really limited in time 2337 01:21:27,270 --> 01:21:24,480 as to the sample size that you're able 2338 01:21:29,350 --> 01:21:27,280 to get so i'd like to really look 2339 01:21:31,990 --> 01:21:29,360 uh further at 2340 01:21:33,350 --> 01:21:32,000 um the rf signals that we're picking up 2341 01:21:35,510 --> 01:21:33,360 out there 2342 01:21:37,110 --> 01:21:35,520 and then um i'd like to branch out a 2343 01:21:38,870 --> 01:21:37,120 little bit and 2344 01:21:40,629 --> 01:21:38,880 i would like to see us 2345 01:21:42,709 --> 01:21:40,639 setting up some instrumentation that 2346 01:21:44,229 --> 01:21:42,719 would allow us to tell you know when 2347 01:21:46,229 --> 01:21:44,239 we're seeing something on the ranch are 2348 01:21:48,070 --> 01:21:46,239 we seeing it other places in the united 2349 01:21:49,590 --> 01:21:48,080 basin as well 2350 01:21:50,629 --> 01:21:49,600 so i'd like to branch out a little bit 2351 01:21:55,110 --> 01:21:50,639 and see 2352 01:21:57,990 --> 01:21:55,120 we can get a 2353 01:21:59,430 --> 01:21:58,000 idea of just how localized this is to 2354 01:22:00,390 --> 01:21:59,440 the ranch 2355 01:22:01,910 --> 01:22:00,400 awesome 2356 01:22:03,830 --> 01:22:01,920 um 2357 01:22:05,510 --> 01:22:03,840 i suppose the ideal was you know when 2358 01:22:07,350 --> 01:22:05,520 you done that rocket experiment what we 2359 01:22:09,189 --> 01:22:07,360 were all going to hopefully see was the 2360 01:22:10,550 --> 01:22:09,199 rocket shooting into the sky and then 2361 01:22:12,870 --> 01:22:10,560 about you know a couple of hundred feet 2362 01:22:14,149 --> 01:22:12,880 up hitting something dropping out the 2363 01:22:15,590 --> 01:22:14,159 sky and it's being like oh there's 2364 01:22:17,590 --> 01:22:15,600 something sitting there it's got an 2365 01:22:20,149 --> 01:22:17,600 invisibility cloak or it's hidden and we 2366 01:22:21,510 --> 01:22:20,159 just can't see it but but yeah so but no 2367 01:22:23,510 --> 01:22:21,520 but some of those experiments like you 2368 01:22:25,030 --> 01:22:23,520 say they were intriguing enough you want 2369 01:22:27,030 --> 01:22:25,040 to see more and you kind of want to take 2370 01:22:29,270 --> 01:22:27,040 it that next step further and again that 2371 01:22:30,709 --> 01:22:29,280 ties in with what you said earlier that 2372 01:22:32,149 --> 01:22:30,719 these experiments for all they've got a 2373 01:22:34,149 --> 01:22:32,159 monetary value 2374 01:22:35,590 --> 01:22:34,159 like someone like brandon okay so if 2375 01:22:38,390 --> 01:22:35,600 there's something in the first one you 2376 01:22:39,910 --> 01:22:38,400 do let's spend a bit more next time and 2377 01:22:41,430 --> 01:22:39,920 investigating it further and again that 2378 01:22:43,430 --> 01:22:41,440 would be great for season two so thanks 2379 01:22:45,350 --> 01:22:43,440 for that question ashley stephen had a 2380 01:22:46,709 --> 01:22:45,360 question or two questions 2381 01:22:49,510 --> 01:22:46,719 are you aware of the history of 2382 01:22:51,350 --> 01:22:49,520 different ufo cases and if so do you see 2383 01:22:53,430 --> 01:22:51,360 any patterns with what goes on around 2384 01:22:56,390 --> 01:22:53,440 the world and what goes on in the ranch 2385 01:22:58,629 --> 01:22:56,400 in terms of ufos 2386 01:23:01,030 --> 01:22:58,639 yeah so before i became associated with 2387 01:23:03,750 --> 01:23:01,040 the ranch this is not a 2388 01:23:06,870 --> 01:23:03,760 area that caught my interest i did not 2389 01:23:09,910 --> 01:23:06,880 spend any time on ufo theories or in the 2390 01:23:11,910 --> 01:23:09,920 paranormal world as a businessman like i 2391 01:23:13,990 --> 01:23:11,920 said i didn't even believe in this stuff 2392 01:23:16,070 --> 01:23:14,000 since becoming associated with the ranch 2393 01:23:18,229 --> 01:23:16,080 um as more and more things have happened 2394 01:23:20,790 --> 01:23:18,239 on the ranch then obviously i it's led 2395 01:23:23,110 --> 01:23:20,800 me to reach out and start looking at 2396 01:23:25,590 --> 01:23:23,120 um you know our do do they see these 2397 01:23:28,550 --> 01:23:25,600 things in other places i think the tic 2398 01:23:30,790 --> 01:23:28,560 tacs is a very pretty visible one that's 2399 01:23:33,590 --> 01:23:30,800 come to light recently with the pentagon 2400 01:23:35,830 --> 01:23:33,600 releasing the tic tac videos and finally 2401 01:23:38,390 --> 01:23:35,840 admitting that yes 2402 01:23:41,270 --> 01:23:38,400 uh we're encountering these things we're 2403 01:23:43,910 --> 01:23:41,280 not sure what they are 2404 01:23:46,550 --> 01:23:43,920 and so in doing that i've studied a 2405 01:23:48,790 --> 01:23:46,560 little bit i'm i will 2406 01:23:50,790 --> 01:23:48,800 i am far from calling myself an expert 2407 01:23:52,310 --> 01:23:50,800 on any of it i have i know just enough 2408 01:23:55,510 --> 01:23:52,320 to make me dangerous 2409 01:23:58,149 --> 01:23:55,520 and uh but i am i am learning more and i 2410 01:24:00,950 --> 01:23:58,159 am studying more about it and trying to 2411 01:24:02,790 --> 01:24:00,960 get myself better versed in 2412 01:24:04,709 --> 01:24:02,800 what people are seeing in other places 2413 01:24:07,110 --> 01:24:04,719 and so then it can help me better 2414 01:24:09,270 --> 01:24:07,120 identify what we're seeing on the ranch 2415 01:24:10,709 --> 01:24:09,280 awesome uh stephen's follow-up question 2416 01:24:12,470 --> 01:24:10,719 i suppose it's really going to push for 2417 01:24:14,149 --> 01:24:12,480 how much you want to answer this and 2418 01:24:16,870 --> 01:24:14,159 it's absolutely no doubt going to be 2419 01:24:19,350 --> 01:24:16,880 more of a i guess or assessment in your 2420 01:24:23,110 --> 01:24:19,360 part what do you think is buried under 2421 01:24:23,120 --> 01:24:25,990 um 2422 01:24:31,350 --> 01:24:30,470 all i will say with that is i'm not sure 2423 01:24:34,790 --> 01:24:31,360 but 2424 01:24:36,390 --> 01:24:34,800 the longer that i'm there and the more 2425 01:24:39,830 --> 01:24:36,400 the more that i see 2426 01:24:41,510 --> 01:24:39,840 um the more open-minded i am to the 2427 01:24:45,110 --> 01:24:41,520 possibility that there is indeed 2428 01:24:49,350 --> 01:24:45,120 something below the ranch and um 2429 01:24:51,990 --> 01:24:49,360 uh i can't help but think that um 2430 01:24:53,830 --> 01:24:52,000 that if there is something under there 2431 01:24:57,189 --> 01:24:53,840 maybe it's of ancient 2432 01:24:59,990 --> 01:24:57,199 um origin some type of a 2433 01:25:02,709 --> 01:25:00,000 piece of advanced technology 2434 01:25:04,950 --> 01:25:02,719 some type of ai 2435 01:25:06,229 --> 01:25:04,960 what we deal with on the ranch 2436 01:25:09,669 --> 01:25:06,239 it 2437 01:25:11,669 --> 01:25:09,679 tell you 2438 01:25:12,790 --> 01:25:11,679 i could spend an hour here telling you 2439 01:25:15,030 --> 01:25:12,800 of 2440 01:25:16,790 --> 01:25:15,040 specific circumstances when we've had 2441 01:25:19,590 --> 01:25:16,800 our equipment toyed with and i'm going 2442 01:25:22,310 --> 01:25:19,600 to use the word toyed 2443 01:25:24,070 --> 01:25:22,320 cameras turned on and off at 2444 01:25:27,030 --> 01:25:24,080 precisely the exact same moment that 2445 01:25:28,790 --> 01:25:27,040 we're picking up anomalies uh 2446 01:25:30,870 --> 01:25:28,800 it just so happens that it happens to be 2447 01:25:32,790 --> 01:25:30,880 the camera that would have recorded that 2448 01:25:34,390 --> 01:25:32,800 or the the instrumentation that would 2449 01:25:36,470 --> 01:25:34,400 have picked that up 2450 01:25:39,990 --> 01:25:36,480 we've seen this enough 2451 01:25:41,750 --> 01:25:40,000 that it 2452 01:25:43,669 --> 01:25:41,760 the only way that my brain can come up 2453 01:25:45,910 --> 01:25:43,679 with a logical explanation is that there 2454 01:25:48,629 --> 01:25:45,920 is an intelligence 2455 01:25:51,669 --> 01:25:48,639 to whatever it is at skinwalker ranch 2456 01:25:54,470 --> 01:25:51,679 and that it is the cat we are the mouse 2457 01:25:57,110 --> 01:25:54,480 and uh we're being toyed with so 2458 01:26:00,229 --> 01:25:57,120 as far as what's being buried underneath 2459 01:26:02,229 --> 01:26:00,239 uh i'm i'm very open-minded now i would 2460 01:26:04,070 --> 01:26:02,239 have laughed at that idea just 2461 01:26:05,669 --> 01:26:04,080 even two years ago 2462 01:26:07,350 --> 01:26:05,679 and today i would say i'm very 2463 01:26:09,030 --> 01:26:07,360 open-minded to the fact that there 2464 01:26:11,350 --> 01:26:09,040 possibly could be something buried under 2465 01:26:14,229 --> 01:26:11,360 the ranch and if there is i would say 2466 01:26:15,189 --> 01:26:14,239 it's some type of source of intelligence 2467 01:26:17,750 --> 01:26:15,199 uh 2468 01:26:18,629 --> 01:26:17,760 artificial or technology i don't know 2469 01:26:20,470 --> 01:26:18,639 but 2470 01:26:22,229 --> 01:26:20,480 that's my guess 2471 01:26:23,990 --> 01:26:22,239 awesome i think travis does a bit of a 2472 01:26:25,110 --> 01:26:24,000 line tracing doesn't he on the show and 2473 01:26:27,590 --> 01:26:25,120 i don't know if this was more for 2474 01:26:29,510 --> 01:26:27,600 dramatic effect but it definitely if you 2475 01:26:32,070 --> 01:26:29,520 were going to draw a type of ufo i'm 2476 01:26:34,470 --> 01:26:32,080 sure in your top five shapes of alien 2477 01:26:37,189 --> 01:26:34,480 spacecraft that would have came out um 2478 01:26:39,030 --> 01:26:37,199 but again as based on seismology is at 2479 01:26:40,390 --> 01:26:39,040 the right term and kind of sending 2480 01:26:42,629 --> 01:26:40,400 signals under the ground and kind of 2481 01:26:44,950 --> 01:26:42,639 picking it back up so so yeah that 2482 01:26:46,870 --> 01:26:44,960 that's pretty interesting can i just ask 2483 01:26:48,709 --> 01:26:46,880 slightly on topic of what you've you've 2484 01:26:50,790 --> 01:26:48,719 said but this is a question for myself 2485 01:26:53,189 --> 01:26:50,800 before i go back to listener questions 2486 01:26:55,750 --> 01:26:53,199 has brandon ever had any meetings with 2487 01:26:58,070 --> 01:26:55,760 luella zondo or tom delong or anyone at 2488 01:26:59,910 --> 01:26:58,080 two of the stars that you know of 2489 01:27:02,390 --> 01:26:59,920 not that i know of no 2490 01:27:05,030 --> 01:27:02,400 okay cool 2491 01:27:06,550 --> 01:27:05,040 he probably would have told me if he had 2492 01:27:08,070 --> 01:27:06,560 okay cool that that would be good that 2493 01:27:10,229 --> 01:27:08,080 would be a great roundtable we have i 2494 01:27:12,070 --> 01:27:10,239 think uh brandon fugo and louise 2495 01:27:13,430 --> 01:27:12,080 elizondo tommed along and a few others 2496 01:27:14,229 --> 01:27:13,440 that would be that would be interesting 2497 01:27:15,910 --> 01:27:14,239 here 2498 01:27:18,149 --> 01:27:15,920 um 2499 01:27:19,590 --> 01:27:18,159 idris sent in a question regarding the 2500 01:27:21,430 --> 01:27:19,600 the scene that again you talked about 2501 01:27:22,870 --> 01:27:21,440 the alpacas it was it drummed up a lot 2502 01:27:25,350 --> 01:27:22,880 of controversy and you had your own 2503 01:27:27,430 --> 01:27:25,360 issues with that the the scene and one 2504 01:27:30,470 --> 01:27:27,440 of the last episodes with the the death 2505 01:27:32,390 --> 01:27:30,480 of the the cattle or the cow um 2506 01:27:34,790 --> 01:27:32,400 it's very much tied in on that episode 2507 01:27:37,110 --> 01:27:34,800 that there's a ufo in the sky 2508 01:27:38,790 --> 01:27:37,120 the cattle's died an expert veterinarian 2509 01:27:41,030 --> 01:27:38,800 comes in and he basically says there's 2510 01:27:43,350 --> 01:27:41,040 been a massive stress that's came on 2511 01:27:45,430 --> 01:27:43,360 that stress and just pneumonia i believe 2512 01:27:47,189 --> 01:27:45,440 is what he says has killed the cattle 2513 01:27:48,950 --> 01:27:47,199 but there's no getting away from whether 2514 01:27:51,270 --> 01:27:48,960 it's the editing or what you guys wanted 2515 01:27:53,350 --> 01:27:51,280 it to be the the inclination is that 2516 01:27:55,110 --> 01:27:53,360 that ufo above the cattle had something 2517 01:27:57,030 --> 01:27:55,120 to do with it dying what were your 2518 01:27:58,550 --> 01:27:57,040 thoughts on that scene and incident and 2519 01:28:00,390 --> 01:27:58,560 do you think it was a true reflection of 2520 01:28:01,669 --> 01:28:00,400 what happened 2521 01:28:02,950 --> 01:28:01,679 um 2522 01:28:05,189 --> 01:28:02,960 yeah so 2523 01:28:07,910 --> 01:28:05,199 the the official determination from the 2524 01:28:10,229 --> 01:28:07,920 vet was that was rapid onset 2525 01:28:11,430 --> 01:28:10,239 stress-induced pneumonia 2526 01:28:13,669 --> 01:28:11,440 um 2527 01:28:16,629 --> 01:28:13,679 he could tell from so he was showing us 2528 01:28:17,430 --> 01:28:16,639 when he was doing the neocropsy that um 2529 01:28:20,629 --> 01:28:17,440 if 2530 01:28:22,470 --> 01:28:20,639 over time there's scar tissue that 2531 01:28:24,870 --> 01:28:22,480 builds up in the lungs 2532 01:28:27,910 --> 01:28:24,880 and there was none of that and so he 2533 01:28:30,629 --> 01:28:27,920 said it had to happen it had to have 2534 01:28:32,629 --> 01:28:30,639 happened very rapidly and it was stress 2535 01:28:36,790 --> 01:28:32,639 induced pneumonia so the cow got 2536 01:28:38,229 --> 01:28:36,800 stressed it happened really recently 2537 01:28:40,149 --> 01:28:38,239 and uh 2538 01:28:41,990 --> 01:28:40,159 so 2539 01:28:43,910 --> 01:28:42,000 that's and you know what here's the 2540 01:28:45,510 --> 01:28:43,920 thing this is the tough thing about the 2541 01:28:47,910 --> 01:28:45,520 ranch is there's a million things that 2542 01:28:48,870 --> 01:28:47,920 happen so cows die every day on ranches 2543 01:28:50,629 --> 01:28:48,880 that's 2544 01:28:54,070 --> 01:28:50,639 cows get pneumonia every day and they 2545 01:28:56,470 --> 01:28:54,080 die there's nothing strange about 2546 01:28:59,110 --> 01:28:56,480 a cow getting pneumonia and dying 2547 01:29:00,229 --> 01:28:59,120 that's just part of ranching 2548 01:29:01,270 --> 01:29:00,239 um 2549 01:29:03,590 --> 01:29:01,280 but 2550 01:29:04,709 --> 01:29:03,600 then on the other hand you have to start 2551 01:29:06,470 --> 01:29:04,719 saying 2552 01:29:09,669 --> 01:29:06,480 okay that's 2553 01:29:10,629 --> 01:29:09,679 that's the current train of thought 2554 01:29:13,910 --> 01:29:10,639 but 2555 01:29:15,590 --> 01:29:13,920 what stressed the cow what was it that 2556 01:29:18,229 --> 01:29:15,600 made that cow get stressed enough that 2557 01:29:21,510 --> 01:29:18,239 it caught pneumonia 2558 01:29:25,830 --> 01:29:24,149 other stress-induced pneumonias of other 2559 01:29:27,830 --> 01:29:25,840 answers we say oh that happens all the 2560 01:29:29,430 --> 01:29:27,840 time well maybe we need to look a little 2561 01:29:30,790 --> 01:29:29,440 closer and say why does that happen all 2562 01:29:32,790 --> 01:29:30,800 the time 2563 01:29:34,390 --> 01:29:32,800 are are there rf signals they're picking 2564 01:29:36,709 --> 01:29:34,400 that their bodies are susceptible to 2565 01:29:39,030 --> 01:29:36,719 that stressing them and causing that 2566 01:29:41,110 --> 01:29:39,040 like why are we seeing this sometimes 2567 01:29:43,590 --> 01:29:41,120 things become so normal that we just 2568 01:29:45,270 --> 01:29:43,600 accept that's just the way it is 2569 01:29:46,550 --> 01:29:45,280 that's just life 2570 01:29:48,390 --> 01:29:46,560 and maybe 2571 01:29:50,070 --> 01:29:48,400 sometimes we need to question the you 2572 01:29:53,590 --> 01:29:50,080 know question the answers question the 2573 01:29:55,830 --> 01:29:53,600 questions and and so because it is on 2574 01:29:58,790 --> 01:29:55,840 the ranch then that is naturally our 2575 01:29:59,830 --> 01:29:58,800 question was this just a regular death 2576 01:30:01,350 --> 01:29:59,840 and 2577 01:30:03,189 --> 01:30:01,360 nothing 2578 01:30:05,030 --> 01:30:03,199 strange about it or 2579 01:30:07,830 --> 01:30:05,040 was there more to it so when we start 2580 01:30:09,590 --> 01:30:07,840 going back through the footage 2581 01:30:12,149 --> 01:30:09,600 um and this is 2582 01:30:13,590 --> 01:30:12,159 anytime we like with this cow 2583 01:30:15,189 --> 01:30:13,600 we're going to go back 2584 01:30:19,030 --> 01:30:15,199 and look at all the data that we have 2585 01:30:20,550 --> 01:30:19,040 available to us leading up to this point 2586 01:30:23,270 --> 01:30:20,560 and see if we can figure out and 2587 01:30:25,030 --> 01:30:23,280 understand what stressed that cow 2588 01:30:26,790 --> 01:30:25,040 if it's that a dog was out there chasing 2589 01:30:31,350 --> 01:30:26,800 it well that explains it there's nothing 2590 01:30:34,550 --> 01:30:32,310 so 2591 01:30:38,390 --> 01:30:34,560 as we're looking at this footage there's 2592 01:30:40,310 --> 01:30:38,400 this object up in the sky now 2593 01:30:41,830 --> 01:30:40,320 the reason why 2594 01:30:43,590 --> 01:30:41,840 that object 2595 01:30:45,830 --> 01:30:43,600 i think 2596 01:30:47,430 --> 01:30:45,840 uh merits further investigation is for 2597 01:30:49,750 --> 01:30:47,440 two things 2598 01:30:51,189 --> 01:30:49,760 you could have a fly literally walking 2599 01:30:52,950 --> 01:30:51,199 across the lens of your camera that 2600 01:30:55,669 --> 01:30:52,960 could look identical to that we've seen 2601 01:30:58,310 --> 01:30:55,679 it a million times 2602 01:31:01,350 --> 01:30:58,320 with our cameras it's really hard to 2603 01:31:02,470 --> 01:31:01,360 gauge depth perception how far away was 2604 01:31:04,950 --> 01:31:02,480 that object 2605 01:31:07,910 --> 01:31:04,960 this particular object at one point 2606 01:31:08,870 --> 01:31:07,920 during the during the video 2607 01:31:11,430 --> 01:31:08,880 it 2608 01:31:13,510 --> 01:31:11,440 appears and they you know eric's still 2609 01:31:15,030 --> 01:31:13,520 doing further post-processing but it 2610 01:31:17,270 --> 01:31:15,040 appears to us 2611 01:31:19,030 --> 01:31:17,280 that the object disappears behind the 2612 01:31:19,990 --> 01:31:19,040 tree branch and then comes out the other 2613 01:31:22,870 --> 01:31:20,000 side 2614 01:31:24,709 --> 01:31:22,880 and that's important because a fly 2615 01:31:26,390 --> 01:31:24,719 would be in front of the tree branch not 2616 01:31:28,629 --> 01:31:26,400 behind it 2617 01:31:30,950 --> 01:31:28,639 well why then that takes it to the next 2618 01:31:32,629 --> 01:31:30,960 step and said and you know if we can 2619 01:31:36,070 --> 01:31:32,639 prove absolutely that that's what 2620 01:31:38,629 --> 01:31:36,080 happened is it went behind the tree 2621 01:31:41,350 --> 01:31:38,639 that gives us an idea on distance 2622 01:31:44,629 --> 01:31:41,360 for the object to look that big in the 2623 01:31:46,310 --> 01:31:44,639 camera and be and and at least be the 2624 01:31:48,310 --> 01:31:46,320 distance of the trees 2625 01:31:51,830 --> 01:31:48,320 we now can start taking measurements 2626 01:31:55,030 --> 01:31:51,840 that tell us the size of that craft 2627 01:31:57,430 --> 01:31:55,040 and the size of that craft if it's a fly 2628 01:31:59,189 --> 01:31:57,440 flying one inch away from the screen 2629 01:32:01,669 --> 01:31:59,199 that explains why it looks like it's 2630 01:32:03,590 --> 01:32:01,679 going 10 000 miles an hour you know in 2631 01:32:06,149 --> 01:32:03,600 two frames it's gone well it only went 2632 01:32:07,910 --> 01:32:06,159 two inches it was nothing but if you're 2633 01:32:09,510 --> 01:32:07,920 talking about a distance out there 2634 01:32:12,070 --> 01:32:09,520 beyond the trees 2635 01:32:14,229 --> 01:32:12,080 and it covered that amount of ground now 2636 01:32:15,110 --> 01:32:14,239 we could triangulate and we can see that 2637 01:32:19,270 --> 01:32:15,120 that 2638 01:32:21,510 --> 01:32:19,280 know be going like a thousand miles an 2639 01:32:24,470 --> 01:32:21,520 hour i don't know of a drone or a 2640 01:32:26,390 --> 01:32:24,480 helicopter that can go that fast so 2641 01:32:28,310 --> 01:32:26,400 that's kind of our thinking on this 2642 01:32:31,430 --> 01:32:28,320 particular object 2643 01:32:33,830 --> 01:32:31,440 the fact that it is above the cow and 2644 01:32:35,910 --> 01:32:33,840 you know in looking at it 2645 01:32:39,030 --> 01:32:35,920 there again we can't be certain but it 2646 01:32:40,470 --> 01:32:39,040 does look like the cow's reactions while 2647 01:32:42,070 --> 01:32:40,480 it's on the ground 2648 01:32:44,470 --> 01:32:42,080 seem to be corresponding with the 2649 01:32:45,590 --> 01:32:44,480 movement of this craft 2650 01:32:46,470 --> 01:32:45,600 so 2651 01:32:50,149 --> 01:32:46,480 that 2652 01:32:52,629 --> 01:32:50,159 it's it's not far from what we were 2653 01:32:54,390 --> 01:32:52,639 seeing and um 2654 01:32:56,790 --> 01:32:54,400 i'm sure that we got a few head 2655 01:33:00,870 --> 01:32:56,800 movements and nods and some music in 2656 01:33:02,149 --> 01:33:00,880 there to uh add to it but uh it actually 2657 01:33:03,990 --> 01:33:02,159 when we went backstar looking at the 2658 01:33:06,310 --> 01:33:04,000 footage like that was you know i think 2659 01:33:08,229 --> 01:33:06,320 that was edited pretty accurately 2660 01:33:10,149 --> 01:33:08,239 yeah particularly if it's right what you 2661 01:33:12,709 --> 01:33:10,159 say about brandon being the character he 2662 01:33:14,629 --> 01:33:12,719 is in general that he was particularly 2663 01:33:16,870 --> 01:33:14,639 animated during the scene with linda 2664 01:33:18,629 --> 01:33:16,880 moulton howe and travis and so yeah know 2665 01:33:21,030 --> 01:33:18,639 that that's a great answer appreciate 2666 01:33:23,430 --> 01:33:21,990 that sounds like that could be a 2667 01:33:26,550 --> 01:33:23,440 catchphrase on the second season if 2668 01:33:28,149 --> 01:33:26,560 brandon's anymore that's brandon um so a 2669 01:33:31,030 --> 01:33:28,159 couple more listener questions i've got 2670 01:33:32,870 --> 01:33:31,040 dan asking how are your injuries now 2671

just two or three 2728 01:35:43,590 --> 01:35:42,480 weeks ago and just said 2729 01:35:44,470 --> 01:35:43,600 um 2730 01:35:46,149 --> 01:35:44,480 you know 2731 01:35:47,750 --> 01:35:46,159 you

01:36:03,669 --> 01:36:01,440 um as far as specific instances i'll 2739 01:36:06,870 --> 01:36:03,679 i'll refer him to my twitter feed if you 2740 01:36:10,709 --> 01:36:06,880 go to my twitter feed and i i posted 2741 01:36:13,669 --> 01:36:10,719 uh a little video and an explanation 2742 01:36:16,709 --> 01:36:13,679 about a time that happened with my car 2743 01:36:21,510 --> 01:36:18,629 the reason why i'm hesitant to share 2744 01:36:23,270 --> 01:36:21,520 things that go on at my house is 2745 01:36:27,030 --> 01:36:23,280 i shared this particular incident about 2746 01:36:31,030 --> 01:36:29,109 it's no different than the rest of the 2747 01:36:33,109 --> 01:36:31,040 million ufo stories we've been told in 2748 01:36:35,750 --> 01:36:33,119 the fact that 2749 01:36:39,030 --> 01:36:35,760 in order for you to 2750 01:36:42,390 --> 01:36:39,040 accept it you have to overlook a lot of 2751 01:36:47,830 --> 01:36:44,950 for example my windows rolled down 2752 01:36:50,310 --> 01:36:47,840 and my camera the specific camera my 2753 01:36:52,070 --> 01:36:50,320 surveillance system at my house 2754 01:36:54,790 --> 01:36:52,080 before the windows go down it shuts 2755 01:36:56,790 --> 01:36:54,800 itself off none of the other seven or 2756 01:36:58,629 --> 01:36:56,800 the other yeah the other seven cameras 2757 01:37:01,109 --> 01:36:58,639 that are on the system work beautifully 2758 01:37:02,950 --> 01:37:01,119 never even so much as flickered 2759 01:37:04,629 --> 01:37:02,960 and yet the one on the front of my house 2760 01:37:07,430 --> 01:37:04,639 facing this car 2761 01:37:09,590 --> 01:37:07,440 goes off for a couple of minutes 2762 01:37:11,430 --> 01:37:09,600 there's no way for people would have 2763 01:37:13,830 --> 01:37:11,440 like for this to be significant people 2764 01:37:16,550 --> 01:37:13,840 have to take me at my word that i didn't 2765 01:37:18,629 --> 01:37:16,560 go upstairs and turn that camera off 2766 01:37:20,629 --> 01:37:18,639 that i didn't just use the key fob and 2767 01:37:23,030 --> 01:37:20,639 roll the windows down 2768 01:37:26,390 --> 01:37:23,040 um that i didn't turn it off or walk 2769 01:37:27,910 --> 01:37:26,400 outside like there's a lot of holes here 2770 01:37:30,149 --> 01:37:27,920 that 2771 01:37:31,669 --> 01:37:30,159 i'm expecting people to believe and and 2772 01:37:33,750 --> 01:37:31,679 the truth is i don't expect them to 2773 01:37:35,750 --> 01:37:33,760 believe i'm simply just throwing an 2774 01:37:38,070 --> 01:37:35,760 experience out there and saying 2775 01:37:40,709 --> 01:37:38,080 this is what's taken place 2776 01:37:42,709 --> 01:37:40,719 and as far as being able to prove it 2777 01:37:44,870 --> 01:37:42,719 well i can't prove that my key fob

--> 01:39:37,840 um it just decided to quit working for 2833 01:39:40,870 --> 01:39:39,440 three minutes the same three minutes 2834 01:39:43,350 --> 01:39:40,880 that these windows rolled themselves 2835 01:39:45,109 --> 01:39:43,360 down my car does have and i learned this 2836 01:39:47,430 --> 01:39:45,119 from the viewers on twitter i appreciate 2837 01:39:49,189 --> 01:39:47,440 it like i didn't know this but my key 2838 01:39:51,350 --> 01:39:49,199 fob if i hold the unlock button long 2839 01:39:53,750 --> 01:39:51,360 enough the windows will roll themselves 2840 01:39:56,870 --> 01:39:53,760 down it's a so it's a feature that is 2841 01:39:58,870 --> 01:39:56,880 built into the car it is made to do that 2842 01:40:01,030 --> 01:39:58,880 i didn't know it was there when i put it 2843 01:40:02,790 --> 01:40:01,040 on twitter so i'm grateful for the 2844 01:40:04,709 --> 01:40:02,800 viewers that are the you know the 2845 01:40:05,750 --> 01:40:04,719 twitter followers that bring that to my 2846 01:40:08,790 --> 01:40:05,760 attention 2847 01:40:10,950 --> 01:40:08,800 um it explains part of the mystery but i 2848 01:40:12,870 --> 01:40:10,960 didn't have the key fob on me so i know 2849 01:40:14,390 --> 01:40:12,880 for a fact like there's no way that key 2850 01:40:15,510 --> 01:40:14,400 fob button got pushed and rolled those 2851 01:40:16,709 --> 01:40:15,520 windows down 2852 01:40:18,390 --> 01:40:16,719 but 2853 01:40:20,550 --> 01:40:18,400 then it brings it back what what is it 2854 01:40:22,870 --> 01:40:20,560 that we see on the ranch all the time 2855 01:40:24,709 --> 01:40:22,880 it's the electromagnetic radiation that 2856 01:40:25,510 --> 01:40:24,719 we're picking up these radio frequencies 2857 01:40:27,510 --> 01:40:25,520 well 2858 01:40:30,229 --> 01:40:27,520 that's all the key fob is the radio 2859 01:40:32,390 --> 01:40:30,239 frequency to the car tells it to do that 2860 01:40:35,030 --> 01:40:32,400 and then the camera going down again 2861 01:40:37,910 --> 01:40:35,040 another electronic 2862 01:40:41,270 --> 01:40:37,920 so it's possible that whatever you know 2863 01:40:43,669 --> 01:40:41,280 has the ability to to hit that frequency 2864 01:40:46,149 --> 01:40:43,679 and make that car do that that's that's 2865 01:40:47,990 --> 01:40:46,159 one example of things that we've seen 2866 01:40:50,070 --> 01:40:48,000 um we 2867 01:40:51,510 --> 01:40:50,080 the list is long and and i've had some 2868 01:40:54,790 --> 01:40:51,520 things that have been serious enough 2869 01:40:55,830 --> 01:40:54,800 that i've had to call the authorities 2870 01:40:57,750 --> 01:40:55,840 um 2871 01:40:59,030 --> 01:40:57,760 and some things that have terrified my 2872 01:41:01,030 --> 01:40:59,040 family and 2873 01:41:03,830 --> 01:41:01,040 um so 2874 01:41:06,229 --> 01:41:03,840 there's there's those things that i know 2875 01:41:08,629 --> 01:41:06,239 are real and then i tell people there's 2876 01:41:11,189 --> 01:41:08,639 also the observer effect i mean you go 2877 01:41:13,189 --> 01:41:11,199 by go go buy a white 2878 01:41:14,709 --> 01:41:13,199 jeep and the next day you realize that 2879 01:41:16,229 --> 01:41:14,719 10 of your neighbors have the same white 2880 01:41:18,149 --> 01:41:16,239 jeep and you didn't notice that the day 2881 01:41:20,390 --> 01:41:18,159 before right like 2882 01:41:22,629 --> 01:41:20,400 we noticed those things so 2883 01:41:24,149 --> 01:41:22,639 before i worked on the ranch who's to 2884 01:41:25,669 --> 01:41:24,159 say that i didn't have crazy things 2885 01:41:27,270 --> 01:41:25,679 happening around me but i just was 2886 01:41:29,350 --> 01:41:27,280 oblivious to it 2887 01:41:30,310 --> 01:41:29,360 so i try to take that into account and 2888 01:41:32,070 --> 01:41:30,320 say 2889 01:41:33,910 --> 01:41:32,080 is it that there's really more crazy 2890 01:41:35,910 --> 01:41:33,920 things going on at my house 2891 01:41:36,950 --> 01:41:35,920 or is it simply that i work on the ranch 2892 01:41:39,750 --> 01:41:36,960 and now i 2893 01:41:41,350 --> 01:41:39,760 recognize and observe more crazy things 2894 01:41:43,990 --> 01:41:41,360 they were there the whole time but i 2895 01:41:45,430 --> 01:41:44,000 just didn't notice them i like there's 2896 01:41:48,229 --> 01:41:45,440 all these things you have to weigh out 2897 01:41:49,830 --> 01:41:48,239 and balance and say what is it there are 2898 01:41:51,830 --> 01:41:49,840 several these serious things that have 2899 01:41:53,750 --> 01:41:51,840 taken place that that i know for a fact 2900 01:41:55,990 --> 01:41:53,760 those things didn't happen before my 2901 01:41:59,109 --> 01:41:56,000 association with the ranch so there's 2902 01:42:00,870 --> 01:41:59,119 definitely some aspect or element of it 2903 01:42:02,950 --> 01:42:00,880 and then you add in the fact that so 2904 01:42:04,229 --> 01:42:02,960 many people that have visited the ranch 2905 01:42:06,229 --> 01:42:04,239 go home 2906 01:42:08,149 --> 01:42:06,239 and whatever it is this is their words 2907 01:42:11,030 --> 01:42:08,159 it followed them home you know the 2908 01:42:12,310 --> 01:42:11,040 hitchhiker effect i believe in it 2909 01:42:15,030 --> 01:42:12,320 completely 2910 01:42:17,750 --> 01:42:15,040 um i believe it's real 2911 01:42:20,070
