--> 00:00:14,400 UFO podcast my name is Andy and this is 5 00:00:20,510 --> 00:00:18,300 a breaking news pod as the ndaa has been 6 00:00:23,090 --> 00:00:20,520 passed what does that mean what does the 7 00:00:24,769 --> 00:00:23,100 ndaa why is it relevant to UFOs you 8 00:00:26,330 --> 00:00:24,779 might not even know you might you might 9 00:00:28,609 --> 00:00:26,340 have been following it for quite some 10 00:00:31,569 --> 00:00:28,619 time no one better to join me to discuss 11 00:00:34,130 --> 00:00:31,579 and analyze this and break it down than 12 00:00:35,270 --> 00:00:34,140 hello all the way over in Mexico how are 13 00:00:37,670 --> 00:00:35,280 we 14 00:00:40,490 --> 00:00:37,680 hello hello I'm great thank you I'm here 15 00:00:41,930 --> 00:00:40,500 in sunny sunny Mexico uh I I was trying 16 00:00:43,850 --> 00:00:41,940 to kind of get a nice view out my back 17 00:00:45,590 --> 00:00:43,860 window but the sun is too bright and it 18 00:00:46,910 --> 00:00:45,600 may be a silhouette but just out my 19 00:00:48,470 --> 00:00:46,920 window I can see one of the volcanoes 20 00:00:49,729 --> 00:00:48,480 this around the city 21 00:00:51,410 --> 00:00:49,739 um and yeah I'm going to be going to see 22 00:00:54,290 --> 00:00:51,420 some ruining and stuff so I'm excited 23 00:00:57,229 --> 00:00:54,300 this is my first video from on the road 24 00:00:59,750 --> 00:00:57,239 nice well where I am is zero degrees I'm 25 00:01:01,910 --> 00:00:59,760 gonna shed I can't feel my feet and it's 26 00:01:03,950 --> 00:01:01,920 been snowing quite heavily outside as 27 00:01:05,810 --> 00:01:03,960 well and as Dan knows I've had pretty 28 00:01:08,330 --> 00:01:05,820 much the day from hell as it pertains to 29 00:01:10,789 --> 00:01:08,340 things breaking things not working and 30 00:01:13,850 --> 00:01:10,799 general stuff like that but one thing 31 00:01:17,750 --> 00:01:13,860 that has broken today was the news that 32 00:01:20,270 --> 00:01:17,760 the end e NDA has passed a reminder of 33 00:01:22,789 --> 00:01:20,280 what that actually is the ndaa is the 34 00:01:25,670 --> 00:01:22,799 National Defense authorization act for 35 00:01:27,770 --> 00:01:25,680 the United States obviously and it is 36 00:01:30,230 --> 00:01:27,780 the name for a series of U.S federal 37 00:01:32,990 --> 00:01:30,240 laws specifying the annual budget and 38 00:01:35,569 --> 00:01:33,000 expenditures of the US Department of 39 00:01:38,330 --> 00:01:35,579 Defense how does that impact those of us 40 00:01:40,969 --> 00:01:38,340 with our UFO uh interest I hear you ask 41 00:01:43,190 --> 00:01:40,979 well Dan how does that impact the UFO 42 00:01:45,770 --> 00:01:43,200 community 43 00:01:46,850 --> 00:01:45,780 it impacts us in a number of ways not 44 00:01:49,190 --> 00:01:46,860 necessarily the community but the 45 00:01:52,130 --> 00:01:49,200 subject um at the very least there there 46 00:01:54,649 --> 00:01:52,140 is about 33 pages in it that are 47 00:01:56,870 --> 00:01:54,659 relevant to the UAP issue that talk 48 00:01:58,730 --> 00:01:56,880 about the office and what it's required 49 00:02:00,050 --> 00:01:58,740 to do and various things like that the 50 00:02:01,850 --> 00:02:00,060 languages changed since we last 51 00:02:03,710 --> 00:02:01,860 discussed it so so I'll just kind of 52 00:02:05,929 --> 00:02:03,720 walk through all of the changes and 53 00:02:07,850 --> 00:02:05,939 summarize really what um what is 54 00:02:09,229 --> 00:02:07,860 important for people to know uh but 55 00:02:14,229 --> 00:02:09,239 basically there are a few sections 56 00:02:19,309 --> 00:02:17,869 6802-6803 uh fans can I just said 57 00:02:22,790 --> 00:02:19,319 comment on that sure I'm guessing 58 00:02:24,589 --> 00:02:22,800 section 1673 as everyone will know is a 59 00:02:26,690 --> 00:02:24,599 secure method for authorized reporting 60 00:02:32,510 --> 00:02:26,700 uh is that correct 61 00:02:36,050 --> 00:02:34,250 so there are a few things in here that 62 00:02:38,089 --> 00:02:36,060 are relevant to discuss so firstly 63 00:02:40,550 --> 00:02:38,099 before now uh there's been a lot of 64 00:02:42,170 --> 00:02:40,560 changing the office name so the uip uh 65 00:02:43,550 --> 00:02:42,180 joint program office that's not 66 00:02:45,350 --> 00:02:43,560 happening anymore we're sticking with 67 00:02:48,050 --> 00:02:45,360 the name that we've got Arrow the all 68 00:02:49,910 --> 00:02:48,060 domain anomalies resolution office which 69 00:02:51,410 --> 00:02:49,920 is a great name if you ask me kind of 70 00:02:54,110 --> 00:02:51,420 does what it says on the team you know 71 00:02:55,970 --> 00:02:54,120 uh this this section specifically it 72 00:02:57,470 --> 00:02:55,980 creates a secure method by which current 73 00:02:59,930 --> 00:02:57,480 or former government employees or 74 00:03:02,270 --> 00:02:59,940 contractors can submit UAP related 75 00:03:04,670 --> 00:03:02,280 information to the Pentagon UAP office 76 00:03:06,650 --> 00:03:04,680 then through that office they also can 77 00:03:08,750 --> 00:03:06,660 reach the Congressional armed services 78 00:03:11,089 --> 00:03:08,760 and intelligence committees as well 79 00:03:13,970 --> 00:03:11,099 there is a new language in here that 80 00:03:15,350 --> 00:03:13,980 explicitly kind of expands the scope of 81 00:03:17,449 --> 00:03:15,360 interest 82 00:03:19,190 --> 00:03:17,459 um as any activity or program by a 83 00:03:21,170 --> 00:03:19,200 department or agency of the federal 84 00:03:23,229 --> 00:03:21,180 government or contractor of such a 85 00:03:25,790 --> 00:03:23,239 department or agency 86 00:03:27,290 --> 00:03:25,800 including with respect to material 87 00:03:31,610 --> 00:03:27,300 retrieval so we're cooking crash 88 00:03:35,830 --> 00:03:33,710 reverse engineering research and 89 00:03:38,630 --> 00:03:35,840 development detecting and tracking 90 00:03:40,670 --> 00:03:38,640 developmental or operational testing and 91 00:03:42,289 --> 00:03:40,680 security protections and enforcement 92 00:03:44,990 --> 00:03:42,299 that's a nice robust bit of language 93 00:03:47,270 --> 00:03:45,000 there if Arrow does receive through the 94 00:03:49,610 --> 00:03:47,280 secure system any disclosure about UAP 95 00:03:51,770 --> 00:03:49,620 related restricted access programs that 96 00:03:54,229 --> 00:03:51,780 Congress is not aware of 97 00:03:56,270 --> 00:03:54,239 they have to inform the Secretary of 98 00:03:58,490 --> 00:03:56,280 Defense and the Committees and 99 00:04:00,589 --> 00:03:58,500 Congressional leadership within 72 hours 100 00:04:02,809 --> 00:04:00,599 that is new in this particular bit of 101 00:04:04,430 --> 00:04:02,819 language so it's really nice to hear 102 00:04:06,530 --> 00:04:04,440 that the pressure is on to kind of keep 103 00:04:09,110 --> 00:04:06,540 it all current 104 00:04:11,869 --> 00:04:09,120 other whistle blow related language is 105 00:04:14,449 --> 00:04:11,879 in the ndaa not necessarily connected to 106 00:04:16,490 --> 00:04:14,459 this uh but it will probably impact how 107 00:04:18,170 --> 00:04:16,500 this reporting happens I would just say 108 00:04:19,849 --> 00:04:18,180 that under the Obama Administration 109 00:04:21,349 --> 00:04:19,859 there was a lot of prosecution for 110 00:04:23,749 --> 00:04:21,359 people going outside of the law to 111 00:04:25,909 --> 00:04:23,759 whistleblow here it's best that people 112 00:04:27,170 --> 00:04:25,919 stick to this report and apparatus that 113 00:04:28,969 --> 00:04:27,180 it's it's going to be made public how 114 00:04:31,129 --> 00:04:28,979 people can report it 115 00:04:32,749 --> 00:04:31,139 um so it's best for people to stick to 116 00:04:34,310 --> 00:04:32,759 it just so they can protect themselves 117 00:04:36,409 --> 00:04:34,320 and not be prosecuted by the current 118 00:04:38,510 --> 00:04:36,419 government Chris Mellon was really 119 00:04:40,249 --> 00:04:38,520 supportive of this language in the New 120 00:04:42,350 --> 00:04:40,259 York conference he even gave out his 121 00:04:44,749 --> 00:04:42,360 email there was a discussion I was privy 122 00:04:47,150 --> 00:04:44,759 to between an ex-air Force employee who 123 00:04:48,950 --> 00:04:47,160 said they wouldn't be covered by it so 124 00:04:50,990 --> 00:04:48,960 it's nice to know that melon actually 125 00:04:52,249 --> 00:04:51,000 wants to to expand the scope of this and 126 00:04:53,390 --> 00:04:52,259 make sure that other people are being 127 00:04:55,670 --> 00:04:53,400 helped 128 00:04:59,150 --> 00:04:55,680 all organizations will be searching 129 00:05:02,150 --> 00:04:59,160 their records for mbas related to UAP 130 00:05:04,129 --> 00:05:02,160 and the head of Arrow which is Dr Sean 131 00:05:05,870 --> 00:05:04,139 Kirkpatrick I will have to make these 132 00:05:07,370 --> 00:05:05,880 records accessible to Congressional 133 00:05:10,189 --> 00:05:07,380 defense committees intelligence 134 00:05:13,129 --> 00:05:10,199 committees and Leadership no later than 135 00:05:15,710 --> 00:05:13,139 September 30th 2023. the reports and 136 00:05:17,629 --> 00:05:15,720 briefings will go on every year as well 137 00:05:19,490 --> 00:05:17,639 we've also changed the term 138 00:05:21,290 --> 00:05:19,500 so we're no longer talking about 139 00:05:23,510 --> 00:05:21,300 um identified aerial phenomena we're 140 00:05:25,189 --> 00:05:23,520 talking about and identified anomalous 141 00:05:27,950 --> 00:05:25,199 phenomena 142 00:05:30,050 --> 00:05:27,960 just before we get to that regarding the 143 00:05:32,870 --> 00:05:30,060 Whistleblower stuff because I feel there 144 00:05:34,370 --> 00:05:32,880 are still expectations from some and 145 00:05:37,370 --> 00:05:34,380 this is just when I look at social media 146 00:05:41,029 --> 00:05:37,380 conversations that whistleblowers coming 147 00:05:42,469 --> 00:05:41,039 forward means that on live TV or in some 148 00:05:44,210 --> 00:05:42,479 kind of you know political setting 149 00:05:46,430 --> 00:05:44,220 there's going to be an unclassified 150 00:05:49,010 --> 00:05:46,440 public debate where you're going to get 151 00:05:51,469 --> 00:05:49,020 individual a coming out to say I worked 152 00:05:53,570 --> 00:05:51,479 on uh secret program that reverse 153 00:05:55,730 --> 00:05:53,580 engineered spacecraft that we recovered 154 00:05:57,770 --> 00:05:55,740 that is very unlikely to be the case 155 00:06:01,070 --> 00:05:57,780 isn't it it's not going to be that sort 156 00:06:03,590 --> 00:06:01,080 of grandiose announcement it's there's 157 00:06:05,090 --> 00:06:03,600 not even the necessity that it's going 158 00:06:07,670 --> 00:06:05,100 to be people coming forward to speak 159 00:06:09,230 --> 00:06:07,680 publicly they could still be speaking 160 00:06:12,230 --> 00:06:09,240 and likely we'd be speaking in a 161 00:06:15,770 --> 00:06:12,240 classified setting which means we don't 162 00:06:17,810 --> 00:06:15,780 necessarily even end up hearing about it 163 00:06:19,129 --> 00:06:17,820 yeah that's absolutely correct just 164 00:06:20,870 --> 00:06:19,139 because someone reports it it doesn't 165 00:06:22,550 --> 00:06:20,880 mean we'll be hearing about it what I 166 00:06:24,290 --> 00:06:22,560 would say is we we will hear whether 167 00:06:26,450 --> 00:06:24,300 people have utilized the system or not 168 00:06:28,129 --> 00:06:26,460 in our yulu reports we just won't 169 00:06:29,749 --> 00:06:28,139 necessarily hear the contents of that 170 00:06:32,090 --> 00:06:29,759 this is where we kind of just need to 171 00:06:33,650 --> 00:06:32,100 have a little bit of faith that the the 172 00:06:35,870 --> 00:06:33,660 Congressional leadership who I had in 173 00:06:37,790 --> 00:06:35,880 this Earth are going to action it they 174 00:06:39,409 --> 00:06:37,800 can then if they want to try and 175 00:06:41,450 --> 00:06:39,419 declassify the information which is 176 00:06:44,390 --> 00:06:41,460 where we would be privy to it in a 177 00:06:46,850 --> 00:06:44,400 public sector or something like that 178 00:06:48,830 --> 00:06:46,860 I'm just going to mention deidine 179 00:06:51,650 --> 00:06:48,840 Johnson who some of you will follow on 180 00:06:53,689 --> 00:06:51,660 social media his article is also within 181 00:06:55,309 --> 00:06:53,699 the description of this link so was the 182 00:06:56,870 --> 00:06:55,319 article from the debrief they've both 183 00:07:00,290 --> 00:06:56,880 covered this really well and cover it 184 00:07:03,409 --> 00:07:00,300 very often too a quick quote from D Dean 185 00:07:05,689 --> 00:07:03,419 Johnson as and I'll quote there might be 186 00:07:07,670 --> 00:07:05,699 other cases in which a witness learns of 187 00:07:10,610 --> 00:07:07,680 the new system and uses it to provide 188 00:07:12,469 --> 00:07:10,620 obscure but useful information that had 189 00:07:14,870 --> 00:07:12,479 simply been lost at pigeonholed or 190 00:07:16,969 --> 00:07:14,880 forgotten without any element of 191 00:07:18,650 --> 00:07:16,979 improper active concealment and in that 192 00:07:21,290 --> 00:07:18,660 case the term whistleblower would not be 193 00:07:23,450 --> 00:07:21,300 a good fit but the secure method would 194 00:07:25,550 --> 00:07:23,460 still be useful end quote so again 195 00:07:27,650 --> 00:07:25,560 there's there are other things here that 196 00:07:29,930 --> 00:07:27,660 this is useful for because it's going to 197 00:07:31,909 --> 00:07:29,940 allow folks to come forward to say I 198 00:07:33,790 --> 00:07:31,919 found out this I've discovered this and 199 00:07:36,589 --> 00:07:33,800 it doesn't necessarily have been a whole 200 00:07:38,749 --> 00:07:36,599 conspiracy for example the Air Force has 201 00:07:41,270 --> 00:07:38,759 a program for reverse engineering you 202 00:07:43,790 --> 00:07:41,280 know back engineering or retrieval of 203 00:07:46,370 --> 00:07:43,800 stolen recovered materials it could be 204 00:07:48,589 --> 00:07:46,380 something totally a left field but 205 00:07:50,089 --> 00:07:48,599 relevant and in this system and this 206 00:07:52,909 --> 00:07:50,099 method will allow them to come forward 207 00:07:54,650 --> 00:07:52,919 without any reprisal or fear of you know 208 00:07:56,870 --> 00:07:54,660 anything coming against them for for 209 00:07:59,450 --> 00:07:56,880 speaking out so there's a lot of of 210 00:08:01,490 --> 00:07:59,460 positives not just the the classic I 211 00:08:02,749 --> 00:08:01,500 think the Whistleblower idea that people 212 00:08:05,089 --> 00:08:02,759 may have in their heads of what a 213 00:08:06,770 --> 00:08:05,099 whistleblower might be 214 00:08:08,150 --> 00:08:06,780 yeah that's absolutely right we're not 215 00:08:10,430 --> 00:08:08,160 just talking about people like Edward 216 00:08:12,950 --> 00:08:10,440 Snowden and you know people like that 217 00:08:15,469 --> 00:08:12,960 this is a robust system to do it 218 00:08:17,270 --> 00:08:15,479 properly which is what we mean really uh 219 00:08:18,469 --> 00:08:17,280 you know whistleblowers could have come 220 00:08:19,670 --> 00:08:18,479 out for you as we've had that bad 221 00:08:21,890 --> 00:08:19,680 confessions and they haven't really 222 00:08:23,450 --> 00:08:21,900 moved the needle on this so we need a 223 00:08:25,309 --> 00:08:23,460 proper robust system and that's what 224 00:08:27,170 --> 00:08:25,319 we're getting pretty much worth 225 00:08:29,089 --> 00:08:27,180 mentioning that when it comes to the 226 00:08:30,890 --> 00:08:29,099 definition of unidentified aerial 227 00:08:32,570 --> 00:08:30,900 phenomena the definition hasn't changed 228 00:08:34,610 --> 00:08:32,580 so even though we're using anomalous 229 00:08:36,290 --> 00:08:34,620 instead of Ariel we're still talking 230 00:08:38,449 --> 00:08:36,300 about Airborne objects that are not 231 00:08:40,850 --> 00:08:38,459 immediately identifiable transmedium 232 00:08:42,469 --> 00:08:40,860 objects or devices and submerge objects 233 00:08:44,570 --> 00:08:42,479 or devices that are not immediately 234 00:08:45,949 --> 00:08:44,580 identifiable and that display Behavior 235 00:08:47,870 --> 00:08:45,959 or performance characteristics 236 00:08:50,389 --> 00:08:47,880 suggesting that the objects of devices 237 00:08:53,690 --> 00:08:50,399 may be related to the objects described 238 00:08:56,210 --> 00:08:53,700 in subparagraph a the term transmedium 239 00:08:58,070 --> 00:08:56,220 objects or devices is defined to 240 00:08:59,630 --> 00:08:58,080 basically mean objects that are observed 241 00:09:01,550 --> 00:08:59,640 to transition between space the 242 00:09:04,190 --> 00:09:01,560 atmosphere and water 243 00:09:06,170 --> 00:09:04,200 so we're not just talking about uh you 244 00:09:08,269 --> 00:09:06,180 know ignoring man-made stuff anymore 245 00:09:10,670 --> 00:09:08,279 that provision is actually removed from 246 00:09:12,470 --> 00:09:10,680 the legislation here which I'm not too 247 00:09:13,730 --> 00:09:12,480 happy about but it's okay you know you 248 00:09:16,370 --> 00:09:13,740 know this is this is still a really 249 00:09:20,329 --> 00:09:16,380 robust piece of legislation 250 00:09:22,070 --> 00:09:20,339 that brings us to section 6802 and 6803 251 00:09:23,389 --> 00:09:22,080 which you might have in front of you do 252 00:09:24,889 --> 00:09:23,399 you want to tell everyone what that what 253 00:09:28,190 --> 00:09:24,899 that is 254 00:09:30,290 --> 00:09:28,200 uh I had it in front of me and I've hit 255 00:09:32,930 --> 00:09:30,300 the wrong button but that's fine in 256 00:09:34,970 --> 00:09:32,940 general as the general revisions 257 00:09:37,790 --> 00:09:34,980 pertaining to the Pentagon UAP office 258 00:09:40,250 --> 00:09:37,800 brackets arrow and its operations and 259 00:09:43,850 --> 00:09:40,260 arrow conducted historical record report 260 00:09:46,970 --> 00:09:43,860 on government involvement in UAP what I 261 00:09:48,949 --> 00:09:46,980 took away from that is that from those 262 00:09:50,930 --> 00:09:48,959 historical records people thinking back 263 00:09:53,389 --> 00:09:50,940 I suppose go to Roswell a blue book 264 00:09:55,990 --> 00:09:53,399 those kind of things and it now is going 265 00:09:58,790 --> 00:09:56,000 to go back to January 1st 266 00:10:01,370 --> 00:09:58,800 1945. so it's been broadened slightly 267 00:10:03,650 --> 00:10:01,380 and the report is to include a 268 00:10:05,810 --> 00:10:03,660 compilation and itemization of the key 269 00:10:07,810 --> 00:10:05,820 historical record of the involvement of 270 00:10:09,889 --> 00:10:07,820 the intelligence Community with 271 00:10:12,769 --> 00:10:09,899 unidentified anomalous phenomena 272 00:10:14,930 --> 00:10:12,779 including any program or activity that 273 00:10:17,150 --> 00:10:14,940 was protected by restricted access that 274 00:10:19,970 --> 00:10:17,160 has not been explicitly and clearly 275 00:10:21,949 --> 00:10:19,980 reported to Congress and success or 276 00:10:24,170 --> 00:10:21,959 unsuccessful reports to identify and 277 00:10:27,769 --> 00:10:24,180 track unidentified anomalous phenomena 278 00:10:29,810 --> 00:10:27,779 and any efforts to obfuscate manipulate 279 00:10:31,850 --> 00:10:29,820 public opinion hide or otherwise provide 280 00:10:34,610 --> 00:10:31,860 incorrect unclassified or classified 281 00:10:37,850 --> 00:10:34,620 information about unidentified anomalous 282 00:10:39,290 --> 00:10:37,860 phenomena or related activities I think 283 00:10:41,030 --> 00:10:39,300 for me Dan that's the one that will 284 00:10:42,710 --> 00:10:41,040 raise a lot of people's eyebrows because 285 00:10:45,110 --> 00:10:42,720 that's the ones that do start getting 286 00:10:46,730 --> 00:10:45,120 into for lack of other terms that people 287 00:10:50,110 --> 00:10:46,740 would use with who are much smarter than 288 00:10:53,509 --> 00:10:50,120 me secret programs misinformation 289 00:10:55,190 --> 00:10:53,519 cover-ups but I also think that might be 290 00:10:56,389 --> 00:10:55,200 the hardest thing in all of this to 291 00:10:58,310 --> 00:10:56,399 really 292 00:11:00,290 --> 00:10:58,320 clarify because this is the kind of 293 00:11:01,970 --> 00:11:00,300 stuff when Tom Delong talks about stove 294 00:11:03,829 --> 00:11:01,980 pipes and and all these different 295 00:11:05,630 --> 00:11:03,839 compartments and knocking on one door 296 00:11:07,610 --> 00:11:05,640 leading to three other doors and two of 297 00:11:09,230 --> 00:11:07,620 those doors are boarded up and one of 298 00:11:10,550 --> 00:11:09,240 them is now a broom closet and then you 299 00:11:12,170 --> 00:11:10,560 find a note to say you need to go 300 00:11:14,690 --> 00:11:12,180 somewhere else down a hall but that then 301 00:11:17,630 --> 00:11:14,700 got moved to a private contractor and 302 00:11:21,710 --> 00:11:17,640 you know page 12 says turn to page 26 303 00:11:24,290 --> 00:11:21,720 and it's I think that's really confusing 304 00:11:26,269 --> 00:11:24,300 yeah it's I'm thinking Goosebumps Choose 305 00:11:27,829 --> 00:11:26,279 Your Own Ending um but when you don't 306 00:11:29,329 --> 00:11:27,839 like it you go back to the page but you 307 00:11:31,370 --> 00:11:29,339 go back to the page you were on 308 00:11:33,829 --> 00:11:31,380 I think that's a really difficult thing 309 00:11:36,110 --> 00:11:33,839 because it's not easy to see yet 310 00:11:37,670 --> 00:11:36,120 actually we've found a closet and it has 311 00:11:39,410 --> 00:11:37,680 some failing cabinets and within those 312 00:11:42,530 --> 00:11:39,420 failing cabinets there's a folder and 313 00:11:45,230 --> 00:11:42,540 that folder says here in 1940 it we 314 00:11:47,090 --> 00:11:45,240 recovered our craft in 1952 we covered 315 00:11:48,530 --> 00:11:47,100 this up and because that's not going to 316 00:11:50,389 --> 00:11:48,540 be there the people that would have 317 00:11:52,970 --> 00:11:50,399 dealt with these have long since passed 318 00:11:55,850 --> 00:11:52,980 on and that will be the The Gatekeepers 319 00:11:57,290 --> 00:11:55,860 and key holders Generations removed who 320 00:12:00,889 --> 00:11:57,300 have never been charged with that 321 00:12:02,870 --> 00:12:00,899 information and the secure you know 322 00:12:04,850 --> 00:12:02,880 secret keeping that's happened 323 00:12:06,350 --> 00:12:04,860 potentially within that time 324 00:12:07,970 --> 00:12:06,360 and that's just not something that's 325 00:12:09,530 --> 00:12:07,980 going to necessarily come forward and I 326 00:12:11,990 --> 00:12:09,540 think when I read a lot of that stuff I 327 00:12:13,610 --> 00:12:12,000 immediately think Air Force potentially 328 00:12:16,190 --> 00:12:13,620 involved in a lot of that kind of stuff 329 00:12:18,170 --> 00:12:16,200 as well what are your thoughts 330 00:12:19,910 --> 00:12:18,180 yeah absolutely there will be smear 331 00:12:21,590 --> 00:12:19,920 Force involvement and like you say it's 332 00:12:23,329 --> 00:12:21,600 gonna it's gonna be a lot of work to 333 00:12:24,949 --> 00:12:23,339 kind of detail this and I hope when it's 334 00:12:27,050 --> 00:12:24,959 done they kind of release some kind of 335 00:12:29,509 --> 00:12:27,060 public version of this because wowie 336 00:12:31,190 --> 00:12:29,519 that will contain a it'll almost be an 337 00:12:33,230 --> 00:12:31,200 Insider's look at the US government's 338 00:12:35,329 --> 00:12:33,240 involvement in UFOs in a way that we 339 00:12:36,290 --> 00:12:35,339 just haven't seen before you know they 340 00:12:38,569 --> 00:12:36,300 they're going to be able to look at 341 00:12:40,130 --> 00:12:38,579 documents but also Paul interviews uh 342 00:12:41,509 --> 00:12:40,140 pull people into interview as well 343 00:12:44,090 --> 00:12:41,519 whether it's contractors or government 344 00:12:45,350 --> 00:12:44,100 employees past or present uh they'll be 345 00:12:47,389 --> 00:12:45,360 able to look at classified and 346 00:12:49,370 --> 00:12:47,399 unclassified archives do open source 347 00:12:51,290 --> 00:12:49,380 analysis and just look at any records 348 00:12:53,870 --> 00:12:51,300 that Dr Sean Kirkpatrick sees fit to 349 00:12:56,750 --> 00:12:53,880 look at basically so once done it's it's 350 00:12:59,629 --> 00:12:56,760 going to be a real robust uh real robust 351 00:13:02,750 --> 00:12:59,639 look at it all and they generally have 352 00:13:04,550 --> 00:13:02,760 uh a little time to do it 353 00:13:06,470 --> 00:13:04,560 um I had the date noted here but we're 354 00:13:08,269 --> 00:13:06,480 looking at some time uh you know in the 355 00:13:10,250 --> 00:13:08,279 next year or so I think they have about 356 00:13:12,410 --> 00:13:10,260 a year a year and a half to put this 357 00:13:14,030 --> 00:13:12,420 together so it'll be a little while 358 00:13:16,449 --> 00:13:14,040 before we even hear that it's been 359 00:13:18,889 --> 00:13:16,459 handed in but it's an absolutely 360 00:13:21,050 --> 00:13:18,899 necessary part of this process to kind 361 00:13:24,050 --> 00:13:21,060 of clear up what's been going on in the 362 00:13:25,670 --> 00:13:24,060 past uh as we all want them to the the 363 00:13:27,769 --> 00:13:25,680 one main thing to note as well with this 364 00:13:28,910 --> 00:13:27,779 is it was going to be the Comptroller uh 365 00:13:31,009 --> 00:13:28,920 that did this 366 00:13:33,110 --> 00:13:31,019 but now it's going to be arrow that kind 367 00:13:34,550 --> 00:13:33,120 of takes the lead on it which is fair 368 00:13:36,470 --> 00:13:34,560 enough I think you know they're doing a 369 00:13:39,050 --> 00:13:36,480 UAP study they kind of need to know this 370 00:13:41,990 --> 00:13:39,060 but what's really encouraging about it 371 00:13:44,629 --> 00:13:42,000 is now the reporting isn't just to odni 372 00:13:47,509 --> 00:13:44,639 it's to the congressional committees to 373 00:13:48,710 --> 00:13:47,519 the officials in Congress basically OD 374 00:13:50,210 --> 00:13:48,720 and I aren't going to be able to just 375 00:13:53,030 --> 00:13:50,220 stop the buck at their office anymore 376 00:13:54,470 --> 00:13:53,040 they they will anything they hear they 377 00:13:56,449 --> 00:13:54,480 will know that all of the current 378 00:13:58,370 --> 00:13:56,459 officials in Congress also have heard 379 00:14:00,530 --> 00:13:58,380 this stuff so it's going to be very 380 00:14:03,710 --> 00:14:00,540 actionable uh in a way that it wasn't 381 00:14:07,850 --> 00:14:05,750 one or two listeners reached out to me 382 00:14:09,110 --> 00:14:07,860 recently regarding some of the language 383 00:14:11,629 --> 00:14:09,120 changes 384 00:14:13,009 --> 00:14:11,639 um and the dating Johnson himself 385 00:14:14,389 --> 00:14:13,019 pointed this out which is where I 386 00:14:16,610 --> 00:14:14,399 connected the dots it wasn't just me 387 00:14:19,910 --> 00:14:16,620 being intelligent uh he and I'll quote 388 00:14:21,410 --> 00:14:19,920 uh dating Johnson some commentators have 389 00:14:23,750 --> 00:14:21,420 jumped to the conclusion that the change 390 00:14:25,670 --> 00:14:23,760 from Ariel to anomalous will vastly 391 00:14:27,170 --> 00:14:25,680 expand the scope of the phenomena that 392 00:14:29,329 --> 00:14:27,180 Arrow would be tasked to him with 393 00:14:32,030 --> 00:14:29,339 investigating to include for example 394 00:14:33,769 --> 00:14:32,040 Poltergeist or werewolves such claims 395 00:14:35,269 --> 00:14:33,779 fail to take into account that the old 396 00:14:38,150 --> 00:14:35,279 term and the new term point to 397 00:14:40,370 --> 00:14:38,160 functionally identical definitions so I 398 00:14:42,769 --> 00:14:40,380 think the idea that removing Ariel to 399 00:14:46,430 --> 00:14:42,779 anomalous would be this almost more of 400 00:14:48,170 --> 00:14:46,440 an OSAP type of you know organization or 401 00:14:50,750 --> 00:14:48,180 investigating the skinwalker type 402 00:14:52,850 --> 00:14:50,760 phenomena that's that's highly unlikely 403 00:14:54,530 --> 00:14:52,860 and it's more of a definition tweaking 404 00:14:57,590 --> 00:14:54,540 isn't it and is still very much looking 405 00:15:00,230 --> 00:14:57,600 at objects or finding in the air the the 406 00:15:02,509 --> 00:15:00,240 sea and potentially space I always like 407 00:15:04,189 --> 00:15:02,519 to add in there yeah we're talking 408 00:15:06,530 --> 00:15:04,199 transmedium objects you know the ones 409 00:15:09,050 --> 00:15:06,540 that transition between airspace and see 410 00:15:10,670 --> 00:15:09,060 exactly like you said there is scope in 411 00:15:12,530 --> 00:15:10,680 the future I would say with that 412 00:15:14,449 --> 00:15:12,540 anomalous term for them to broaden out a 413 00:15:15,590 --> 00:15:14,459 little bit but for now we're looking at 414 00:15:16,790 --> 00:15:15,600 exactly the same stuff as we were 415 00:15:18,949 --> 00:15:16,800 looking at last year which is fine 416 00:15:22,670 --> 00:15:18,959 because looking at the number of reports 417 00:15:25,430 --> 00:15:22,680 uh you know it went up from 40 44 last 418 00:15:26,810 --> 00:15:25,440 year to we're hitting like 366 is the 419 00:15:29,210 --> 00:15:26,820 number we're here in this year with 50 420 00:15:31,490 --> 00:15:29,220 solve the reporting measures are doing 421 00:15:32,990 --> 00:15:31,500 what they were designed to do the more 422 00:15:34,910 --> 00:15:33,000 people are reporting we've got more 423 00:15:37,310 --> 00:15:34,920 reports more things are being solved but 424 00:15:39,290 --> 00:15:37,320 actually the solve rate has gone down so 425 00:15:41,030 --> 00:15:39,300 I'm not sure you know that Julian Barnes 426 00:15:42,410 --> 00:15:41,040 article was painting a proper picture 427 00:15:44,329 --> 00:15:42,420 when they were kind of saying yeah we 428 00:15:45,530 --> 00:15:44,339 sold out of these things cool what what 429 00:15:47,389 --> 00:15:45,540 are the things you didn't solve that's 430 00:15:49,250 --> 00:15:47,399 what we're interested in you know 431 00:15:50,990 --> 00:15:49,260 absolutely Dan I want to ask you a 432 00:15:55,069 --> 00:15:51,000 question so with that Roundup for people 433 00:15:56,269 --> 00:15:55,079 what what does this ultimately mean in 434 00:15:58,069 --> 00:15:56,279 terms of 435 00:16:00,889 --> 00:15:58,079 what we're going to get from this just 436 00:16:02,389 --> 00:16:00,899 to summarize so the NDA has passed it 437 00:16:05,569 --> 00:16:02,399 still has to be signed off am I correct 438 00:16:08,509 --> 00:16:05,579 from the the administration now 439 00:16:10,370 --> 00:16:08,519 from Biden so I it's going towards the 440 00:16:12,410 --> 00:16:10,380 desk of the president basically it is 441 00:16:14,750 --> 00:16:12,420 passed today uh which is awesome 442 00:16:17,509 --> 00:16:14,760 congratulations everyone good job 443 00:16:19,550 --> 00:16:17,519 um and oh just to say that the 444 00:16:23,569 --> 00:16:19,560 Comptroller report is due by uh no later 445 00:16:25,250 --> 00:16:23,579 than September 30th 2023 uh but yeah 446 00:16:26,870 --> 00:16:25,260 this this has passed now it will go to 447 00:16:28,970 --> 00:16:26,880 the president's desk I would expect it 448 00:16:31,250 --> 00:16:28,980 to hit President Biden to sign it in 449 00:16:32,810 --> 00:16:31,260 around Christmas and then we'll 450 00:16:34,910 --> 00:16:32,820 essentially get the ball rolling on 451 00:16:36,170 --> 00:16:34,920 these kind of title Provisions the 452 00:16:39,590 --> 00:16:36,180 secure system 453 00:16:42,530 --> 00:16:39,600 and this report of the history of the 454 00:16:44,329 --> 00:16:42,540 US's involvement with UAP and just to 455 00:16:47,150 --> 00:16:44,339 point out as well that there are a lot 456 00:16:49,129 --> 00:16:47,160 of offices involved with this too so 457 00:16:50,269 --> 00:16:49,139 we're looking at the DIA the NSA the 458 00:16:52,850 --> 00:16:50,279 department of energy the National 459 00:16:55,009 --> 00:16:52,860 geospatial Intelligence Agency the Army 460 00:16:58,850 --> 00:16:55,019 Navy Air Force Marine Corps and Coast 461 00:17:00,530 --> 00:16:58,860 Guard and Homeland Security uh who kind 462 00:17:04,069 --> 00:17:00,540 of leaked the rubber duck video early 463 00:17:06,110 --> 00:17:04,079 this year uh so there's a nice kind of 464 00:17:08,090 --> 00:17:06,120 wide array of organizations involved in 465 00:17:10,189 --> 00:17:08,100 this so I would expect you know this 466 00:17:11,630 --> 00:17:10,199 board is rolling we'll get yearly 467 00:17:14,210 --> 00:17:11,640 reports again 468 00:17:16,429 --> 00:17:14,220 um that are deemed to 469 00:17:19,069 --> 00:17:16,439 they have to be unclassified but can 470 00:17:20,390 --> 00:17:19,079 include a classified Annex however like 471 00:17:22,909 --> 00:17:20,400 we've seen this year there's no 472 00:17:24,289 --> 00:17:22,919 guarantee on a date for them to be 473 00:17:26,270 --> 00:17:24,299 submitted 474 00:17:27,949 --> 00:17:26,280 there's just a requirement for reports 475 00:17:29,690 --> 00:17:27,959 so I would still expect to see the UAP 476 00:17:31,549 --> 00:17:29,700 report from this year we just haven't 477 00:17:34,070 --> 00:17:31,559 seen it yet it's caught up in red tape 478 00:17:36,230 --> 00:17:34,080 basically yeah 479 00:17:38,750 --> 00:17:36,240 do you know what if any positives are to 480 00:17:40,610 --> 00:17:38,760 come from that I'll just add then if any 481 00:17:43,730 --> 00:17:40,620 positives are to come from that the fact 482 00:17:47,330 --> 00:17:43,740 is that those dates regardless of being 483 00:17:48,650 --> 00:17:47,340 mandated or not are are fluid and it 484 00:17:51,049 --> 00:17:48,660 came and went and must still not had 485 00:17:53,570 --> 00:17:51,059 that report I would like to add Dan that 486 00:17:55,310 --> 00:17:53,580 the the debrief article did mention the 487 00:17:56,870 --> 00:17:55,320 funding levels included within the bill 488 00:17:59,950 --> 00:17:56,880 for those interested in the numbers 489 00:18:03,470 --> 00:17:59,960 involved uh Department of Defense is 490 00:18:05,270 --> 00:18:03,480 816.7 billion Department of energy which 491 00:18:07,669 --> 00:18:05,280 is always an organization that raises 492 00:18:10,430 --> 00:18:07,679 eyebrows as it gets mentioned many times 493 00:18:14,270 --> 00:18:10,440 on the podcast by guests and another uh 494 00:18:17,890 --> 00:18:14,280 literature Endeavors 30.3 billion the 495 00:18:21,549 --> 00:18:17,900 ndaa top line is 847 points 496 00:18:24,350 --> 00:18:21,559 defense related activities outside here 497 00:18:26,330 --> 00:18:24,360 30.3 billion yeah 498 00:18:28,370 --> 00:18:26,340 um which I mean it's not it's not a 499 00:18:30,529 --> 00:18:28,380 number of you know amount of money to be 500 00:18:32,930 --> 00:18:30,539 sniffed at you know uh differentiated 501 00:18:35,510 --> 00:18:32,940 activities outside the ndaa jurisdiction 502 00:18:36,909 --> 00:18:35,520 10.6 billion and National Defense 503 00:18:40,010 --> 00:18:36,919 Topline 504 00:18:41,630 --> 00:18:40,020 857.9 billion something I found was 505 00:18:44,570 --> 00:18:41,640 really interesting was and I think this 506 00:18:46,549 --> 00:18:44,580 is correct that the the US defends 507 00:18:48,529 --> 00:18:46,559 budget is more than every other 508 00:18:51,770 --> 00:18:48,539 country's defense budget put together I 509 00:18:53,570 --> 00:18:51,780 believe which is yeah pretty pretty 510 00:18:54,890 --> 00:18:53,580 incredible and also actually just to 511 00:18:57,049 --> 00:18:54,900 give a shout out to the debrief because 512 00:18:57,950 --> 00:18:57,059 of quoted DD and Johnson quite a lot 513 00:19:01,669 --> 00:18:57,960 here 514 00:19:04,430 --> 00:19:01,679 article about disruptive Technologies 515 00:19:05,990 --> 00:19:04,440 Lancet air and the edge and it talks 516 00:19:08,090 --> 00:19:06,000 about from military concerns and 517 00:19:09,830 --> 00:19:08,100 competition from foreign adversaries 518 00:19:11,029 --> 00:19:09,840 like China development of Next 519 00:19:13,730 --> 00:19:11,039 Generation aircraft other 520 00:19:15,950 --> 00:19:13,740 state-of-the-art Technologies so things 521 00:19:18,409 --> 00:19:15,960 like um strategic competition with China 522 00:19:20,029 --> 00:19:18,419 and Russia disruptive Technologies like 523 00:19:22,490 --> 00:19:20,039 Hypersonic weapons artificial 524 00:19:25,130 --> 00:19:22,500 intelligence 5G and Quantum Computing 525 00:19:26,750 --> 00:19:25,140 modernizing our aircraft and vehicles 526 00:19:28,909 --> 00:19:26,760 that's the kind of stuff this money gets 527 00:19:31,070 --> 00:19:28,919 put towards as well as the stuff that's 528 00:19:33,110 --> 00:19:31,080 involved with taking a UAP side of 529 00:19:36,110 --> 00:19:33,120 things as well 530 00:19:38,270 --> 00:19:36,120 cool so then 531 00:19:39,890 --> 00:19:38,280 um all in I I think it's a weird thing 532 00:19:41,270 --> 00:19:39,900 to talk about a defense budget and be 533 00:19:42,710 --> 00:19:41,280 like oh yeah is that a good thing a bad 534 00:19:44,810 --> 00:19:42,720 thing you know a lot of this stuff goes 535 00:19:47,570 --> 00:19:44,820 to war 536 00:19:49,370 --> 00:19:47,580 M where 537 00:19:51,289 --> 00:19:49,380 just in the uh part of this bill 538 00:19:53,270 --> 00:19:51,299 requires a science plan to be developed 539 00:19:54,590 --> 00:19:53,280 and as part of that science plan they'll 540 00:19:56,210 --> 00:19:54,600 be testing theories relating to 541 00:19:58,070 --> 00:19:56,220 characteristics and performance at UAP 542 00:19:59,930 --> 00:19:58,080 whether it's propulsion aerodynamic 543 00:20:01,610 --> 00:19:59,940 control signature structures materials 544 00:20:04,909 --> 00:20:01,620 sensors countermeasures weapons 545 00:20:07,970 --> 00:20:04,919 Electronics or a power source they that 546 00:20:11,029 --> 00:20:07,980 investigation uh is specified to perhaps 547 00:20:12,590 --> 00:20:11,039 provide potential future Investments for 548 00:20:16,610 --> 00:20:12,600 the upgrade of the US's military 549 00:20:20,570 --> 00:20:17,930 awesome 550 00:20:22,850 --> 00:20:20,580 cool Dan what we'll do is we will round 551 00:20:24,590 --> 00:20:22,860 off there with any final thoughts I'll 552 00:20:26,990 --> 00:20:24,600 just add I'm going to go back and 553 00:20:29,029 --> 00:20:27,000 hopefully fix there's been a couple of 554 00:20:30,890 --> 00:20:29,039 little gaps potentially and Dan and I 555 00:20:32,630 --> 00:20:30,900 talking to each other you shouldn't hear 556 00:20:34,850 --> 00:20:32,640 that when this gets released just with 557 00:20:37,010 --> 00:20:34,860 Dan being in Mexico there's a bit of a 558 00:20:38,750 --> 00:20:37,020 lag at times in the conversation so 559 00:20:40,490 --> 00:20:38,760 apologies if any of that does leak 560 00:20:42,169 --> 00:20:40,500 through it hopefully doesn't and if 561 00:20:44,810 --> 00:20:42,179 we've been talking over each other it's 562 00:20:47,630 --> 00:20:44,820 just because of you know said Gap but 563 00:20:50,570 --> 00:20:47,640 that's it yeah so uh Dan final thoughts 564 00:20:53,090 --> 00:20:50,580 in on the legislation passing 565 00:20:55,669 --> 00:20:53,100 very encouraged uh it's exciting to see 566 00:20:57,289 --> 00:20:55,679 this going through a good set forward 567

specified that it will 570 00:21:07,010 --> 00:21:04,559 go till 2027 previously it was only 2026 571 00:21:11,510 --> 00:21:07,020 so we have an extra year here uh this is 572 00:21:16,490 -->
