00:02:23,269 significance of the revelation of a tip 30 00:02:28,090 --> 00:02:26,360 and the Department of Defense release of 31 00:02:31,120 --> 00:02:28,100 gun camera footage which is 32 00:02:35,380 --> 00:02:31,130 unprecedented what are your thoughts on 33 00:02:42,490 --> 00:02:35,390 that highly significant breakthrough 34 00:02:44,949 --> 00:02:42,500 milestone watershed it yeah is it's 35 00:02:48,310 --> 00:02:44,959 something that was long in the making 36 00:02:53,380 --> 00:02:48,320 the the process of the whole project was 37 00:02:59,759 --> 00:02:53,390 being put together during 2015 and into 38 00:03:01,930 --> 00:02:59,769 2016 between a musician Tom DeLonge and 39 00:03:06,430 --> 00:03:01,940 members of the military intelligence 40 00:03:07,750 --> 00:03:06,440 complex which is some people find a 41 00:03:12,250 --> 00:03:07,760 little odd 42 00:03:13,339 --> 00:03:12,260 and it is on the surface but when you 43 00:03:17,089 --> 00:03:13,349 look a little close 44 00:03:25,680 --> 00:03:17,099 what you find is that you have this 40 45 00:03:28,080 --> 00:03:25,690 early 40s musician Tom DeLonge who had 46 00:03:30,630 --> 00:03:28,090 you know intelligent and successful 47 00:03:31,350 --> 00:03:30,640 parents he wasn't good at school is he 48 00:03:33,839 --> 00:03:31,360 couldn't keep still 49 00:03:37,140 --> 00:03:33,849 skateboarding his way through high 50 00:03:39,240 --> 00:03:37,150 school and took up the guitar when he 51 00:03:43,550 --> 00:03:39,250 was young like so many kids and when he 52 00:03:46,800 --> 00:03:43,560 left high school he formed fans several 53 00:03:48,839 --> 00:03:46,810 finally he formed blink 182 and then 54 00:03:53,190 --> 00:03:48,849 navigated through the very treacherous 55 00:03:56,640 --> 00:03:53,200 music industry and successfully not only 56 00:03:58,229 --> 00:03:56,650 turd but sold 15 million albums they 57 00:04:00,270 --> 00:03:58,239 took a hiatus and he formed another band 58 00:04:02,309 --> 00:04:00,280 angel in Airways and and then navigated 59 00:04:05,160 --> 00:04:02,319 that through the same process called 15 60 00:04:08,750 --> 00:04:05,170 million more albums along the way he set 61 00:04:10,979 --> 00:04:08,760 up a number of businesses successfully 62 00:04:13,170 --> 00:04:10,989 but more importantly after he left high 63 00:04:16,009 --> 00:04:13,180 school it became an autodidact self 64 00:04:18,390 --> 00:04:16,019 teacher read huge numbers and books so 65 00:04:20,340 --> 00:04:18,400 he's an interesting fellow but he's 66 00:04:25,340 --> 00:04:20,350 always been in an 80 issue going way 67 00:04:27,570 --> 00:04:25,350 back certainly in the early 90s and he 68 00:04:29,100 --> 00:04:27,580 he'd go away for years and you wouldn't 69 00:04:33,120 --> 00:04:29,110 hear much about him except in his music 70 00:04:38,219 --> 00:04:33,130 of course but in 2015 something unusual 71 00:04:40,790 --> 00:04:38,229 happened and that DeLonge like many 72 00:04:43,500 --> 00:04:40,800 others and is interested in this field 73 00:04:47,070 --> 00:04:43,510 would love to meet with people inside 74 00:04:49,290 --> 00:04:47,080 people at the Pentagon CIA insiders and 75 00:04:52,620 --> 00:04:49,300 astronauts whatever talk about this 76 00:04:54,990 --> 00:04:52,630 issue is easier said than done he had 77 00:04:57,060 --> 00:04:55,000 the the money to travel to go anywhere 78 00:04:58,890 --> 00:04:57,070 he wanted if there was a conference or a 79 00:05:01,650 --> 00:04:58,900 meeting of some kind that was open to 80 00:05:04,529 --> 00:05:01,660 the public he could go so for a while he 81 00:05:06,930 --> 00:05:04,539 was poking away at the military 82 00:05:09,779 --> 00:05:06,940 intelligence complex trying to meet with 83 00:05:14,550 --> 00:05:09,789 people that he thought could be worth 84 00:05:18,719 --> 00:05:14,560 talking to and he had an idea and the 85 00:05:21,750 --> 00:05:18,729 idea the plan he had was essentially 86 00:05:23,540 --> 00:05:21,760 that the US government needed to start 87 00:05:26,640 --> 00:05:23,550 bringing information out on this issue 88 00:05:29,460 --> 00:05:26,650 much more than they had in the past 89 00:05:33,210 --> 00:05:29,470 start participating in small D 90 00:05:35,010 --> 00:05:33,220 disclosure because the newest government 91 00:05:36,300 --> 00:05:35,020 is really not the bad guys they're the 92 00:05:38,670 --> 00:05:36,310 good guys they've been keeping us safe 93 00:05:41,180 --> 00:05:38,680 all these years that national security 94 00:05:44,280 --> 00:05:41,190 concerns but they get the bad rap 95 00:05:47,030 --> 00:05:44,290 accused of all manner of lying deception 96 00:05:49,920 --> 00:05:47,040 they needed to do some public relations 97 00:05:52,310 --> 00:05:49,930 that was this pitch and he also pitched 98 00:05:55,410 --> 00:05:52,320 the idea that he was very uh 99 00:05:59,130 --> 00:05:55,420 responsible that he wanted to work with 100 00:06:04,560 --> 00:05:59,140 them with guidance and direction and so 101 00:06:06,150 --> 00:06:04,570 forth well as it happened there were a 102 00:06:07,620 --> 00:06:06,160 group of people inside the military 103 00:06:10,650 --> 00:06:07,630 intelligence complex that were thinking 104 00:06:13,260 --> 00:06:10,660 along the same lines and he was the one 105 00:06:15,710 --> 00:06:13,270 knocking on the door and so they 106 00:06:19,740 --> 00:06:15,720 actually started meeting with him and 107 00:06:23,450 --> 00:06:19,750 formulated a plan and the plan was that 108 00:06:28,380 --> 00:06:23,460 Tom DeLonge would essentially be a 109 00:06:32,700 --> 00:06:28,390 spokesperson or reach out to do PR for 110 00:06:36,420 --> 00:06:32,710 them in a way among other things he's 111 00:06:38,520 --> 00:06:36,430 it's 42 or so going on really 32 he's 112 00:06:42,000 --> 00:06:38,530 more millennial then he has a generate 113 00:06:44,640 --> 00:06:42,010 Gen Y and big following all around the 114 00:06:47,820 --> 00:06:44,650 world you can reach out connect with 115 00:06:49,310 --> 00:06:47,830 people and be the conduit for this 116 00:06:52,380 --> 00:06:49,320 information to come forward be a 117 00:06:54,960 --> 00:06:52,390 spokesperson for their project it seems 118 00:06:56,070 --> 00:06:54,970 a little unusual but in fact that kind 119 00:06:59,580 --> 00:06:56,080 of thing is happening throughout the 120 00:07:01,380 --> 00:06:59,590 corporate world and this project was 121 00:07:04,470 --> 00:07:01,390 slowly put together over a period of I 122 00:07:08,940 --> 00:07:04,480 don't know 12 to 18 months and finally 123 00:07:12,690 --> 00:07:08,950 announced in a public way on March the 124 00:07:16,580 --> 00:07:12,700 27th of 2016 when DeLong went on 125 00:07:18,930 --> 00:07:16,590 coast-to-coast with George Knapp and 126 00:07:23,550 --> 00:07:18,940 spent about three hours talking about 127 00:07:25,350 --> 00:07:23,560 what the plan was revealing that he had 128 00:07:29,280 --> 00:07:25,360 met with insiders at the Pentagon the 129 00:07:32,070 --> 00:07:29,290 CIA NASA that he'd been provided an 130 00:07:34,050 --> 00:07:32,080 advisory team to give information to him 131 00:07:37,220 --> 00:07:34,060 that was then going to be brought into 132 00:07:40,460 --> 00:07:37,230 the public domain through multimedia 133 00:07:45,910 --> 00:07:40,470 documentaries fiction books but 134 00:07:51,200 --> 00:07:45,920 we nonfiction maybe music who knows and 135 00:07:53,120 --> 00:07:51,210 they were going to try to help the 136 00:07:55,010 --> 00:07:53,130 public learn about this in other words 137 00:07:57,710 --> 00:07:55,020 to be start being part of the solution 138 00:08:02,060 --> 00:07:57,720 and not the problem I didn't believe it 139 00:08:04,420 --> 00:08:02,070 at first I said this is simply to to 140 00:08:08,120 --> 00:08:04,430 off-axis 141 00:08:09,950 --> 00:08:08,130 however when on that interview show with 142 00:08:11,990 --> 00:08:09,960 Knab he said that well the first book 143 00:08:13,460 --> 00:08:12,000 the first effort to start breaking 144 00:08:15,410 --> 00:08:13,470 information now called secret machines 145 00:08:17,780 --> 00:08:15,420 is gonna be published very soon 146 00:08:20,750 --> 00:08:17,790 and lo and behold the next month April 147 00:08:24,740 --> 00:08:20,760 2016 and book was published and I'm 148 00:08:29,660 --> 00:08:24,750 going ok this must be real and that was 149 00:08:34,300 --> 00:08:29,670 the beginning he talked some more here 150 00:08:39,320 --> 00:08:34,310 and there but no major announcement cane 151 00:08:41,360 --> 00:08:39,330 because I believe the plan was to make 152 00:08:43,370 --> 00:08:41,370 the announced that sometime after the 153 00:08:48,620 --> 00:08:43,380 election and during the transition 154 00:08:50,800 --> 00:08:48,630 period December may be late November but 155 00:08:54,380 --> 00:08:50,810 that didn't happen 156 00:08:57,500 --> 00:08:54,390 what happened was that first of all 157 00:09:00,530 --> 00:08:57,510 among many things WikiLeaks released 158 00:09:03,850 --> 00:09:00,540 thousands of John Podesta C mails which 159 00:09:08,990 --> 00:09:03,860 showed the long interacting with Podesta 160 00:09:11,030 --> 00:09:09,000 extensively and outed some of the 161 00:09:12,290 --> 00:09:11,040 activities and some of the people who 162 00:09:15,170 --> 00:09:12,300 were involved which wasn't supposed to 163 00:09:18,370 --> 00:09:15,180 happen so that created some discomfort 164 00:09:22,430 --> 00:09:18,380 amongst the insiders he was working with 165 00:09:24,170 --> 00:09:22,440 but most importantly and and I 166 00:09:25,760 --> 00:09:24,180 understand he was he was talking to the 167 00:09:28,310 --> 00:09:25,770 Democrats not the Republicans and the 168 00:09:30,590 --> 00:09:28,320 reason for that is that up until the 169 00:09:32,090 --> 00:09:30,600 last minute the people inside the 170 00:09:33,710 --> 00:09:32,100 military intelligence complex were 171 00:09:36,770 --> 00:09:33,720 pretty sure Hillary Clinton's going to 172 00:09:38,360 --> 00:09:36,780 win more importantly they were pretty 173 00:09:40,340 --> 00:09:38,370 sure she was going to disclose which is 174 00:09:43,010 --> 00:09:40,350 one of the reasons why they were trying 175 00:09:45,829 --> 00:09:43,020 to get out in front of the issue but she 176 00:09:51,650 --> 00:09:45,839 didn't win and that just blew everything 177 00:09:53,600 --> 00:09:51,660 sky-high and so no announcement came we 178 00:09:54,350 --> 00:09:53,610 waited about 10 months it took 10 months 179 00:09:57,489 --> 00:09:54,360 for them 180 00:10:03,079 --> 00:09:57,499 rethink restructure rejigger whatever 181 00:10:05,929 --> 00:10:03,089 their plan was and finally they 182 00:10:08,960 --> 00:10:05,939 announced it on October 11th in a 183 00:10:11,329 --> 00:10:08,970 facebook video and what they announced 184 00:10:11,929 --> 00:10:11,339 this to the Stars Academy of Arts and 185 00:10:15,919 --> 00:10:11,939 Science 186 00:10:20,539 --> 00:10:15,929 a awkwardly named organization comprised 187 00:10:25,669 --> 00:10:20,549 of Tonga long and 10-person team all of 188 00:10:26,840 --> 00:10:25,679 which were most of which were former 189 00:10:36,650 --> 00:10:26,850 members of the military intelligence 190 00:10:40,669 --> 00:10:36,660 complex DoD CIA NSA the skunk works at 191 00:10:44,929 --> 00:10:40,679 Lockheed NASA an extraordinary team of 192 00:10:47,299 --> 00:10:44,939 people absolutely astounding and that 193 00:10:49,039 --> 00:10:47,309 announcement created quite a stir but 194 00:10:49,579 --> 00:10:49,049 not a lot because they didn't play it 195 00:10:51,679 --> 00:10:49,589 too hard 196 00:10:53,569 --> 00:10:51,689 no no press conference there were no 197 00:10:56,210 --> 00:10:53,579 press in the audience when they made the 198 00:10:59,720 --> 00:10:56,220 announcement on Facebook Loki but they 199 00:11:01,689 --> 00:10:59,730 got it out there and now I knew things 200 00:11:05,090 --> 00:11:01,699 were getting very serious and that was 201 00:11:08,919 --> 00:11:05,100 October 11th so naturally we were very 202 00:11:12,759 --> 00:11:08,929 eager to know what was gonna happen next 203 00:11:16,039 --> 00:11:12,769 into two months and they made their move 204 00:11:17,689 --> 00:11:16,049 what they did was in that two months 205 00:11:20,809 --> 00:11:17,699 they delivered a news story to the New 206 00:11:22,999 --> 00:11:20,819 York Times where as they handed over 207 00:11:25,009 --> 00:11:23,009 information and said this is a news 208 00:11:26,900 --> 00:11:25,019 story do you want to write it up nothing 209 00:11:28,579 --> 00:11:26,910 unusual about that happens all the time 210 00:11:32,449 --> 00:11:28,589 the New York Times could have ignored it 211 00:11:37,249 --> 00:11:32,459 or it could have published it and what 212 00:11:40,039 --> 00:11:37,259 it did was publish it big time so in 213 00:11:42,379 --> 00:11:40,049 December the 16th a date that may go 214 00:11:44,689 --> 00:11:42,389 down in history the New York Times 215 00:11:47,720 --> 00:11:44,699 published two articles on the same day 216 00:11:49,699 --> 00:11:47,730 with the same buy lines they assign the 217 00:11:54,799 --> 00:11:49,709 articles first to a New York Times 218 00:11:56,629 --> 00:11:54,809 reporter Helene Cooper but Leslie Kane 219 00:11:58,759 --> 00:11:56,639 was added to the byline and I think that 220 00:12:00,710 --> 00:11:58,769 that is the person that delivered the 221 00:12:04,129 --> 00:12:00,720 story to them I believe that was the 222 00:12:05,960 --> 00:12:04,139 conduit but I'm not certain and then to 223 00:12:08,280 --> 00:12:05,970 add a little gravitas to the articles 224 00:12:10,949 --> 00:12:08,290 they included a Pulitzer Prize winner 225 00:12:13,290 --> 00:12:10,959 Ralph Blumenthal it was interested in 226 00:12:14,999 --> 00:12:13,300 the subject and these articles were 227 00:12:17,370 --> 00:12:15,009 published on December the 16th and 228 00:12:18,180 --> 00:12:17,380 that's when things heated up very 229 00:12:21,660 --> 00:12:18,190 quickly 230 00:12:25,470 --> 00:12:21,670 I had chronicled about and have linked 231 00:12:28,860 --> 00:12:25,480 on my website I don't know 60 some 232 00:12:31,230 --> 00:12:28,870 articles about the announcement of to 233 00:12:34,379 --> 00:12:31,240 the Stars Academy over 200 articles 234 00:12:37,110 --> 00:12:34,389 though are up there about the New York 235 00:12:40,470 --> 00:12:37,120 Times and the material that was 236 00:12:44,850 --> 00:12:40,480 published that day and what we learned 237 00:12:46,470 --> 00:12:44,860 that day amidst this mass chaos going on 238 00:12:50,490 --> 00:12:46,480 in American American politics 239 00:12:54,090 --> 00:12:50,500 I mean chaos it surpasses the Nixon 240 00:12:57,540 --> 00:12:54,100 Watergate here period the Clinton Monica 241 00:13:01,199 --> 00:12:57,550 Lewinsky period chaos I've never seen in 242 00:13:04,889 --> 00:13:01,209 my lifetime so it could have gotten a 243 00:13:08,240 --> 00:13:04,899 lot more focus but there's a gale force 244 00:13:13,980 --> 00:13:08,250 hurricane the flying around right now 245 00:13:17,639 --> 00:13:13,990 what was announced Wow first they 246 00:13:21,660 --> 00:13:17,649 announced that a research program had 247 00:13:24,139 --> 00:13:21,670 been commissioned by the Senate majority 248 00:13:29,750 --> 00:13:24,149 reader leader at the time Harry Reid 249 00:13:34,319 --> 00:13:29,760 powerful men to study the UFO phenomena 250 00:13:38,970 --> 00:13:34,329 well I was interesting and they ran this 251 00:13:41,280 --> 00:13:38,980 program formally from 2007 to 2012 that 252 00:13:43,350 --> 00:13:41,290 was interesting they announced who was 253 00:13:45,900 --> 00:13:43,360 in control of the program who managed it 254 00:13:50,189 --> 00:13:45,910 fella by the name of Louis Elizondo who 255 00:13:54,780 --> 00:13:50,199 left the CIA and went directly to Tom 256 00:13:57,420 --> 00:13:54,790 DeLonge steam came on board the program 257 00:13:59,639 --> 00:13:57,430 apparently while the funding of 22 258 00:14:01,829 --> 00:13:59,649 million ran out in 2012 259 00:14:04,860 --> 00:14:01,839 Elizondo along with his other duties 260 00:14:07,740 --> 00:14:04,870 continued to work the project using 261 00:14:09,569 --> 00:14:07,750 resources he could scavenge here and 262 00:14:13,110 --> 00:14:09,579 there right up until the point that he 263 00:14:15,960 --> 00:14:13,120 left the CIA that was interesting and we 264 00:14:19,800 --> 00:14:15,970 learned that it was not a black program 265 00:14:21,870 --> 00:14:19,810 but it was low-key down low earmarked 266 00:14:24,360 --> 00:14:21,880 money that 267 00:14:26,700 --> 00:14:24,370 Reid was able to pull out of this budget 268 00:14:29,970 --> 00:14:26,710 or whatever and so I nobody knew about 269 00:14:32,310 --> 00:14:29,980 it I didn't know about it so it was 270 00:14:34,230 --> 00:14:32,320 essentially a secret but it was not a 271 00:14:37,620 --> 00:14:34,240 you SAP or an unacknowledged special 272 00:14:39,120 --> 00:14:37,630 access program but he gets better we 273 00:14:44,190 --> 00:14:39,130 learned that the reason that Reid 274 00:14:46,160 --> 00:14:44,200 approaches the Pentagon with this idea I 275 00:14:48,900 --> 00:14:46,170 think it's time we studied UFOs again 276 00:14:53,070 --> 00:14:48,910 was with the urging of none other than 277 00:14:54,900 --> 00:14:53,080 billionaire Robert Bigelow which was 278 00:14:56,580 --> 00:14:54,910 extremely notable because Bigelow has 279 00:14:59,430 --> 00:14:56,590 been involved in the et issue going back 280 00:15:01,470 --> 00:14:59,440 to the mid-90s when he created the 281 00:15:04,380 --> 00:15:01,480 National Institute of Discovery Sciences 282 00:15:07,530 --> 00:15:04,390 and looked into the phone with a 10 or 283 00:15:09,960 --> 00:15:07,540 12 person Advisory Board almost all of 284 00:15:13,140 --> 00:15:09,970 them everyone on PhDs and a number of 285 00:15:15,600 --> 00:15:13,150 insiders by level stuff and he continued 286 00:15:19,080 --> 00:15:15,610 that that program called knids all the 287 00:15:20,940 --> 00:15:19,090 way to 2004 Steven just that just to 288 00:15:24,450 --> 00:15:20,950 jump in really quickly you do bring up 289 00:15:25,680 --> 00:15:24,460 Bigelow and this is a concern for a lot 290 00:15:29,670 --> 00:15:25,690 of people I'd like to get your feedback 291 00:15:31,530 --> 00:15:29,680 on it the fact that a private individual 292 00:15:33,560 --> 00:15:31,540 who basically runs a corporation a 293 00:15:36,330 --> 00:15:33,570 private corporation private individual 294 00:15:38,820 --> 00:15:36,340 gathering up a lot of this UFO data is 295 00:15:41,340 --> 00:15:38,830 actually yeah not necessarily a good 296 00:15:43,260 --> 00:15:41,350 thing and because again it is privatized 297 00:15:46,530 --> 00:15:43,270 at least with the government we've got a 298 00:15:48,390 --> 00:15:46,540 shot at some time down the road getting 299 00:15:51,740 --> 00:15:48,400 this information either or getting some 300 00:15:54,660 --> 00:15:51,750 information through foyers through 301 00:15:56,700 --> 00:15:54,670 inevitable declassification that type of 302 00:15:59,040 --> 00:15:56,710 thing if it's private it becomes 303 00:16:02,370 --> 00:15:59,050 proprietary information and then it's 304 00:16:06,240 --> 00:16:02,380 that information stays locked up at the 305 00:16:08,700 --> 00:16:06,250 whim of a private individual who is has 306 00:16:11,970 --> 00:16:08,710 not really got a real strong track 307 00:16:14,790 --> 00:16:11,980 record of releasing what he knows what's 308 00:16:17,850 --> 00:16:14,800 your feedback on that that that is 309 00:16:22,680 --> 00:16:17,860 almost all misinformation okay and it's 310 00:16:28,220 --> 00:16:22,690 not true a lot of well the nature of 311 00:16:32,280 --> 00:16:28,230 this field which is justifiably paranoid 312 00:16:34,400 --> 00:16:32,290 frustrated angry and been manipulated 313 00:16:40,639 --> 00:16:34,410 for decades by the government 314 00:16:44,780 --> 00:16:40,649 is suspicious and not not hesitate 315 00:16:47,509 --> 00:16:44,790 doesn't hesitate to to go after any new 316 00:16:50,929 --> 00:16:47,519 players or any anyone really in the 317 00:16:52,309 --> 00:16:50,939 field frankly and this is by and large 318 00:16:55,910 --> 00:16:52,319 people that just don't know the history 319 00:16:58,819 --> 00:16:55,920 of it man I appreciate that so maybe I 320 00:17:00,499 --> 00:16:58,829 can be helpful here ok yeah I mean he 321 00:17:03,170 --> 00:17:00,509 doesn't have a real strong track record 322 00:17:05,059 --> 00:17:03,180 in terms of releasing information aside 323 00:17:07,399 --> 00:17:05,069 from the book that was approved about 324 00:17:09,230 --> 00:17:07,409 the skinwalker ranch we haven't seen a 325 00:17:11,990 --> 00:17:09,240 whole lot from him except general 326 00:17:14,270 --> 00:17:12,000 statement saying yeah this UFO thing is 327 00:17:16,130 --> 00:17:14,280 real we're being visited it was a great 328 00:17:19,159 --> 00:17:16,140 moment when he announced that on 60 329 00:17:21,529 --> 00:17:19,169 minutes unambiguously but as far as 330 00:17:26,000 --> 00:17:21,539 details go we haven't gotten a lot from 331 00:17:30,409 --> 00:17:26,010 him to be honest about it again I don't 332 00:17:34,310 --> 00:17:30,419 see it that way at all ok Bigelow formed 333 00:17:36,770 --> 00:17:34,320 a nationalist to discovery Sciences to 334 00:17:40,130 --> 00:17:36,780 look into this subject and funded it was 335 00:17:44,149 --> 00:17:40,140 his money and they did research it was 336 00:17:45,590 --> 00:17:44,159 no the fact that what they were finding 337 00:17:49,909 --> 00:17:45,600 they didn't they didn't necessarily 338 00:17:52,810 --> 00:17:49,919 publish everything they don't need to it 339 00:17:56,810 --> 00:17:52,820 was a private program funded by him 340 00:17:58,640 --> 00:17:56,820 though some things were revealed some of 341 00:18:01,039 --> 00:17:58,650 this stuff is pretty complicated and not 342 00:18:02,870 --> 00:18:01,049 necessarily result who knows but it is 343 00:18:06,980 --> 00:18:02,880 known that he was looking into these 344 00:18:12,590 --> 00:18:06,990 things including the et issue from 2009 345 00:18:14,570 --> 00:18:12,600 1995 2004 he was also notable that it 346 00:18:18,880 --> 00:18:14,580 was after he'd already started knids 347 00:18:25,399 --> 00:18:22,940 1999-2000 and then signed up his 348 00:18:29,899 --> 00:18:25,409 contractor with NASA because he took 349 00:18:32,840 --> 00:18:29,909 over the flexible habitat research that 350 00:18:36,200 --> 00:18:32,850 they no longer the funds for that is his 351 00:18:38,419 --> 00:18:36,210 pride and glory and went into a 352 00:18:40,789 --> 00:18:38,429 contractor relationship and NASA did not 353 00:18:46,050 --> 00:18:40,799 have a problem with his interest in the 354 00:18:49,010 --> 00:18:46,060 80 subject that was notable and 355 00:18:52,500 --> 00:18:49,020 of course he's working on the NASA 356 00:18:55,590 --> 00:18:52,510 projects or rather the NASA related 357 00:18:58,980 --> 00:18:55,600 projects and research all the way to two 358 00:19:03,930 --> 00:18:58,990 thousand two thousand seven at which 359 00:19:09,210 --> 00:19:03,940 point we learn later that he was part of 360 00:19:12,480 --> 00:19:09,220 the research program set up by Harry 361 00:19:15,720 --> 00:19:12,490 Reid he was receiving a lot of that 362 00:19:18,780 --> 00:19:15,730 funding to do some of the research this 363 00:19:20,790 --> 00:19:18,790 this is not surprising because the 364 00:19:24,120 --> 00:19:20,800 Pentagon didn't didn't want to do that 365 00:19:27,600 --> 00:19:24,130 program they they the last thing they 366 00:19:32,750 --> 00:19:27,610 wanted to do was to start up a quote UFO 367 00:19:35,280 --> 00:19:32,760 research program with with Senate money 368 00:19:40,620 --> 00:19:35,290 that could easily become known to the 369 00:19:42,840 --> 00:19:40,630 public for the simple reason that the 370 00:19:45,390 --> 00:19:42,850 Pentagon or the military intelligence 371 00:19:48,030 --> 00:19:45,400 community at the appropriate levels has 372 00:19:49,920 --> 00:19:48,040 been researching the et issue every 373 00:19:52,380 --> 00:19:49,930 second of every day of every month of 374 00:19:55,380 --> 00:19:52,390 every years and in 1947 if not sooner 375 00:19:59,010 --> 00:19:55,390 never stopped that's all black that's 376 00:20:01,650 --> 00:19:59,020 all in the the the the the deepest 377 00:20:03,810 --> 00:20:01,660 blackest highly classified area of 378 00:20:05,700 --> 00:20:03,820 military intelligence complex all right 379 00:20:06,960 --> 00:20:05,710 of course completely unknown to us what 380 00:20:09,510 --> 00:20:06,970 they do what they've what they've 381 00:20:12,870 --> 00:20:09,520 learned where their research facilities 382 00:20:14,120 --> 00:20:12,880 are everything unknown to us but they 383 00:20:16,370 --> 00:20:14,130 had no choice 384 00:20:18,660 --> 00:20:16,380 Bigelow was helpful in the sense that 385 00:20:22,620 --> 00:20:18,670 the research a lot of the research is 386 00:20:25,830 --> 00:20:22,630 being done by a corporation or under the 387 00:20:28,050 --> 00:20:25,840 aegis of a non-governmental person bo 388 00:20:29,160 --> 00:20:28,060 he's a contractor that took a little 389 00:20:31,020 --> 00:20:29,170 pressure off of them and of course 390 00:20:33,750 --> 00:20:31,030 they're not using any any any defense 391 00:20:36,750 --> 00:20:33,760 money they had to give it a name that 392 00:20:38,880 --> 00:20:36,760 would make sense to be a program like 393 00:20:40,950 --> 00:20:38,890 that to anybody inside that wanted to 394 00:20:43,140 --> 00:20:40,960 know about it or learned about it so 395 00:20:44,460 --> 00:20:43,150 they call it the advanced I believe 396 00:20:48,900 --> 00:20:44,470 initially was called the advanced 397 00:20:51,420 --> 00:20:48,910 aviation threat investigations program a 398 00:20:54,440 --> 00:20:51,430 tip but came the best thing to call the 399 00:20:56,370 --> 00:20:54,450 advanced aerospace and so that goes on 400 00:20:57,990 --> 00:20:56,380 now we don't know about it 401 00:20:59,730 --> 00:20:58,000 but that's nothing shocking about that 402 00:21:02,340 --> 00:20:59,740 the the 403 00:21:04,740 --> 00:21:02,350 list of things that we don't know about 404 00:21:06,540 --> 00:21:04,750 government research and projects isn't 405 00:21:08,580 --> 00:21:06,550 incredibly long list of the fact that we 406 00:21:15,060 --> 00:21:08,590 didn't know about that is not tickly 407 00:21:17,940 --> 00:21:15,070 notable but Bigelow at this point now is 408 00:21:20,880 --> 00:21:17,950 now involved in that program but in 409 00:21:24,140 --> 00:21:20,890 addition a couple years after that 410 00:21:27,480 --> 00:21:24,150 program he gets involved with MUFON in 411 00:21:31,799 --> 00:21:27,490 this case he provides a lot of money to 412 00:21:38,010 --> 00:21:31,809 move on to help create what amounted to 413 00:21:39,660 --> 00:21:38,020 a Rapid Response Team meaning I you've 414 00:21:41,250 --> 00:21:39,670 got the money if something happens you 415 00:21:44,190 --> 00:21:41,260 can get there right away and you've got 416 00:21:45,570 --> 00:21:44,200 the money to investigate in other words 417 00:21:47,190 --> 00:21:45,580 that's something that comes in from the 418 00:21:49,049 --> 00:21:47,200 public because I'm assuming he's already 419 00:21:51,000 --> 00:21:49,059 through a tip he's got access to 420 00:21:53,580 --> 00:21:51,010 anything hot that comes in via the 421 00:21:56,400 --> 00:21:53,590 military we don't know that nobody has 422 00:21:58,700 --> 00:21:56,410 access to we do know from the reports 423 00:22:02,480 --> 00:21:58,710 that were provided New York Times that 424 00:22:06,230 --> 00:22:02,490 he was given materials to research 425 00:22:08,820 --> 00:22:06,240 facilities that he set up but exactly 426 00:22:12,630 --> 00:22:08,830 what else he was responsible for we 427 00:22:15,000 --> 00:22:12,640 don't know I will assume that sightings 428 00:22:17,100 --> 00:22:15,010 and so forth were being looked at but 429 00:22:18,960 --> 00:22:17,110 they had 22 million dollars and that 430 00:22:21,419 --> 00:22:18,970 could have been handled by Elizondo we 431 00:22:22,890 --> 00:22:21,429 don't know but we do know he was 432 00:22:25,830 --> 00:22:22,900 involved in the research to one degree 433 00:22:29,910 --> 00:22:25,840 or another in support of the agent 434 00:22:32,490 --> 00:22:29,920 program but what I was about to say was 435 00:22:34,830 --> 00:22:32,500 that in 2009 he didn't gets involved 436 00:22:36,960 --> 00:22:34,840 with MUFON provides them money to do 437 00:22:38,940 --> 00:22:36,970 Rapid Response which they never had the 438 00:22:40,860 --> 00:22:38,950 money to do Deven chily they get on a 439 00:22:42,450 --> 00:22:40,870 case but it's a slow process they 440 00:22:43,650 --> 00:22:42,460 they're not in a position to just be 441 00:22:46,710 --> 00:22:43,660 there the next day 442 00:22:50,669 --> 00:22:46,720 and the deal was that that that 443 00:22:53,130 --> 00:22:50,679 information would be shared within that 444 00:22:54,840 --> 00:22:53,140 program didn't have it it had its 445 00:22:57,930 --> 00:22:54,850 problems and last about two years and 446 00:22:59,850 --> 00:22:57,940 eventually it ended but you know he and 447 00:23:02,280 --> 00:22:59,860 it was known it was publicly known it 448 00:23:04,680 --> 00:23:02,290 was not hidden to him is not a secret so 449 00:23:07,500 --> 00:23:04,690 once again he's involved he's helping 450 00:23:11,760 --> 00:23:07,510 out on this issue he's engaging this 451 00:23:13,470 --> 00:23:11,770 issue and that goes through 2011 so now 452 00:23:17,990 --> 00:23:13,480 we know that from this article in 453 00:23:21,870 --> 00:23:18,000 times but as you pointed out correctly 454 00:23:24,240 --> 00:23:21,880 something else happened because in May I 455 00:23:27,620 --> 00:23:24,250 believe I should know the exact date I 456 00:23:34,590 --> 00:23:27,630 can easily get it but it's round May of 457 00:23:38,159 --> 00:23:34,600 2017 six months before or rather five 458 00:23:41,010 --> 00:23:38,169 months before the announcement of the 459 00:23:45,720 --> 00:23:41,020 two stars Academy which he was connected 460 00:23:49,289 --> 00:23:45,730 to we learned and seven months before 461 00:23:53,010 --> 00:23:49,299 the article in The New York Times he's 462 00:23:55,799 --> 00:23:53,020 interviewed on 60 minutes and the reason 463 00:23:57,659 --> 00:23:55,809 for that was that a milestone had been 464 00:23:59,190 --> 00:23:57,669 reached in which the ISS the 465 00:24:01,110 --> 00:23:59,200 International Space Station was in fact 466 00:24:02,669 --> 00:24:01,120 testing for the first time one of his 467 00:24:05,220 --> 00:24:02,679 flexible habitats that he'd spent on 468 00:24:07,500 --> 00:24:05,230 these years twelve some fifteen years 469 00:24:10,080 --> 00:24:07,510 and for two million dollars developing 470 00:24:12,419 --> 00:24:10,090 and now it's getting tested perfectly 471 00:24:14,070 --> 00:24:12,429 valid research by the way totally 472 00:24:16,830 --> 00:24:14,080 appropriate and will eventually be 473 00:24:19,080 --> 00:24:16,840 highly utilized and so this is a big 474 00:24:22,340 --> 00:24:19,090 deal and of course he's a known figure 475 00:24:25,830 --> 00:24:22,350 so CBS decides this is the time to 476 00:24:27,270 --> 00:24:25,840 interview Bob Bigelow now this is this 477 00:24:30,450 --> 00:24:27,280 is one of the most watched news shows in 478 00:24:34,289 --> 00:24:30,460 the world and what they do is they 479 00:24:36,000 --> 00:24:34,299 provide you in advance the areas they're 480 00:24:37,200 --> 00:24:36,010 gonna ask about that's all they do they 481 00:24:38,940 --> 00:24:37,210 don't give you the questions but the 482 00:24:41,520 --> 00:24:38,950 areas they're going to talk about makes 483 00:24:45,360 --> 00:24:41,530 total sense so that you can prepare to 484 00:24:47,400 --> 00:24:45,370 respond in an appropriate way you don't 485 00:24:49,860 --> 00:24:47,410 send them the question they just give 486 00:24:51,630 --> 00:24:49,870 you some areas and clearly given his 487 00:24:53,640 --> 00:24:51,640 involvement in the et issue which was a 488 00:24:55,440 --> 00:24:53,650 known going all the way back to the mid 489 00:24:57,539 --> 00:24:55,450 90s they were gonna ask him about that 490 00:25:00,990 --> 00:24:57,549 so he knew he was going to be asked 491 00:25:03,180 --> 00:25:01,000 about that and sure enough as you moved 492 00:25:06,810 --> 00:25:03,190 towards the end of that very important 493 00:25:10,140 --> 00:25:06,820 interview Laura Logan gets into his 494 00:25:12,600 --> 00:25:10,150 interest in the UFO phenomena talks 495 00:25:14,460 --> 00:25:12,610 about the fact because grandparents had 496 00:25:16,830 --> 00:25:14,470 a sighting that affected him greatly and 497 00:25:19,350 --> 00:25:16,840 this may have gotten him interested and 498 00:25:20,549 --> 00:25:19,360 showed the logo of a tea tea on the side 499 00:25:23,460 --> 00:25:20,559 of his building all that but then 500 00:25:25,000 --> 00:25:23,470 finally the inevitable happens and she 501 00:25:28,840 --> 00:25:25,010 asked him 502 00:25:33,549 --> 00:25:28,850 I'll paraphrase here if he thinks that 503 00:25:38,289 --> 00:25:33,559 this phenomena is real and he says 504 00:25:40,990 --> 00:25:38,299 absolutely and she questions whether 505 00:25:42,490 --> 00:25:41,000 he's concerned that that people might 506 00:25:44,980 --> 00:25:42,500 think he's crazy and he instantly 507 00:25:48,250 --> 00:25:44,990 responds I don't give a damn and then 508 00:25:54,430 --> 00:25:48,260 she asked him you mean that they're here 509 00:25:58,600 --> 00:25:54,440 now and he says yeah isn't that amazing 510 00:26:00,789 --> 00:25:58,610 now understand when Bigelow that that 511 00:26:05,740 --> 00:26:00,799 wasn't something that he just decided to 512 00:26:08,500 --> 00:26:05,750 do he planned to do that he knew he was 513 00:26:11,080 --> 00:26:08,510 going to do that and when he did it he 514 00:26:13,150 --> 00:26:11,090 was also aware that the to the Stars 515 00:26:16,990 --> 00:26:13,160 Academy was going to be announcing soon 516 00:26:21,669 --> 00:26:17,000 and that project was going forward this 517 00:26:25,960 --> 00:26:21,679 was a essentially a not a pre-emptive 518 00:26:29,080 --> 00:26:25,970 but this was a maneuver by Bigelow to 519 00:26:31,630 --> 00:26:29,090 probably give more gravitas and enhance 520 00:26:34,030 --> 00:26:31,640 what what he knew was coming in other 521 00:26:37,630 --> 00:26:34,040 words he along with the to the Stars 522 00:26:40,270 --> 00:26:37,640 team and and the insiders this is this 523 00:26:42,940 --> 00:26:40,280 is a carefully planned fairly elaborate 524 00:26:45,610 --> 00:26:42,950 process underway to break the back of 525 00:26:48,610 --> 00:26:45,620 the truth embargo and Bigelow's 526 00:26:53,650 --> 00:26:48,620 statement on 60 minutes was extremely 527 00:26:56,380 --> 00:26:53,660 important and so later on now we learned 528 00:27:00,480 --> 00:26:56,390 from the article that he's involved in 529 00:27:06,669 --> 00:27:00,490 the ATF but that's not all we learned 530 00:27:12,130 --> 00:27:06,679 what we learned was that Elizondo when 531 00:27:18,520 --> 00:27:12,140 he left the CIA was given permission to 532 00:27:20,650 --> 00:27:18,530 take three videos with him now when when 533 00:27:23,100 --> 00:27:20,660 one of the quote spokespeople for the 534 00:27:26,440 --> 00:27:23,110 Pentagon were approached by a reporter 535 00:27:29,080 --> 00:27:26,450 about whether that video was authorized 536 00:27:31,000 --> 00:27:29,090 that person said no it's no it wasn't 537 00:27:32,230 --> 00:27:31,010 and that person just didn't know what 538 00:27:35,200 --> 00:27:32,240 they were talking about and that's not 539 00:27:38,600 --> 00:27:35,210 surprising because there is no way in 540 00:27:41,659 --> 00:27:38,610 hell that he is going to walk out of the 541 00:27:45,500 --> 00:27:41,669 DoD rather with gun camera footage does 542 00:27:49,120 --> 00:27:45,510 not authorized Declassified and that gun 543 00:27:51,470 --> 00:27:49,130 camera footage was released to the web 544 00:27:55,580 --> 00:27:51,480 by the New York Times as part of that 545 00:27:58,639 --> 00:27:55,590 article the first article and that was a 546 00:28:02,600 --> 00:27:58,649 major milestone that was a huge 547 00:28:04,940 --> 00:28:02,610 milestone why because in the 70 years 548 00:28:10,310 --> 00:28:04,950 since the UFO phenomena explodes in the 549 00:28:12,560 --> 00:28:10,320 scene in a big way early 1947 in spite 550 00:28:15,620 --> 00:28:12,570 of the tens upon tens of thousands of 551 00:28:17,629 --> 00:28:15,630 intercepts that have occurred between 552 00:28:20,210 --> 00:28:17,639 planes from the United States Air Force 553 00:28:24,259 --> 00:28:20,220 and every other country with an air 554 00:28:26,480 --> 00:28:24,269 force around the world all of which were 555 00:28:30,019 --> 00:28:26,490 filmed because you do not send up 556 00:28:31,669 --> 00:28:30,029 intercepts protecting your airspace and 557 00:28:35,240 --> 00:28:31,679 not film the engagement 558 00:28:37,669 --> 00:28:35,250 it's called gun camera footage how many 559 00:28:40,610 --> 00:28:37,679 thousands of reels of that exist and 560 00:28:44,539 --> 00:28:40,620 then of an had ever been released with 561 00:28:46,789 --> 00:28:44,549 the possible exception of the Nimitz a 562 00:28:48,409 --> 00:28:46,799 piece of the Nimitz film may have been 563 00:28:51,560 --> 00:28:48,419 unauthorized and released to a 564 00:28:53,810 --> 00:28:51,570 documentary team back in 2007 it's part 565 00:28:57,470 --> 00:28:53,820 of a documentary nobody noticed it was a 566 00:28:59,629 --> 00:28:57,480 blip on the radar but that footage was 567 00:29:03,019 --> 00:28:59,639 then released initially in the New York 568 00:29:05,690 --> 00:29:03,029 Times article the nimitz event just just 569 00:29:08,870 --> 00:29:05,700 jumping in real quick again Steve about 570 00:29:11,269 --> 00:29:08,880 that the Nimitz case that's a it's been 571 00:29:12,710 --> 00:29:11,279 six months since they initially did 572 00:29:14,210 --> 00:29:12,720 their their big announcement in four 573 00:29:17,600 --> 00:29:14,220 months since the big New York Times 574 00:29:20,029 --> 00:29:17,610 story basically we've got details on one 575 00:29:24,919 --> 00:29:20,039 case which is the Nimitz case and it's 576 00:29:28,580 --> 00:29:24,929 14 years old now is that really enough 577 00:29:30,560 --> 00:29:28,590 to sort of break the dam that that's not 578 00:29:32,990 --> 00:29:30,570 really a lot in terms of cases to go on 579 00:29:36,529 --> 00:29:33,000 I've heard numbers from Leslie Kean 580 00:29:40,009 --> 00:29:36,539 maybe they got literally one hot case 581 00:29:41,930 --> 00:29:40,019 per month into the a tip program we're 582 00:29:43,480 --> 00:29:41,940 not seeing really a whole lot of details 583 00:29:48,289 --> 00:29:43,490 in terms of what they were actually 584 00:29:49,940 --> 00:29:48,299 investigating it just at least to me 585 00:29:50,940 --> 00:29:49,950 anyway it doesn't seem to be breaking 586 00:29:53,100 --> 00:29:50,950 through to the mains 587 00:29:55,350 --> 00:29:53,110 dream as far as well you know it's a 588 00:29:56,669 --> 00:29:55,360 story that did run late last year but 589 00:30:00,389 --> 00:29:56,679 things have been awfully quiet since 590 00:30:04,850 --> 00:30:00,399 then well first of all let's put it in 591 00:30:10,620 --> 00:30:04,860 perspective yeah we'd love to see it all 592 00:30:15,720 --> 00:30:10,630 let's get it all out but if you consider 593 00:30:20,879 --> 00:30:15,730 the context what they have done is 594 00:30:23,000 --> 00:30:20,889 unprecedented never happened before they 595 00:30:25,350 --> 00:30:23,010 have a team that's publicly out there 596 00:30:27,840 --> 00:30:25,360 more powerful than any public team ever 597 00:30:32,779 --> 00:30:27,850 put together these are non-trivial 598 00:30:35,549 --> 00:30:32,789 significant milestones point number two 599 00:30:39,350 --> 00:30:35,559 understand that what they're trying to 600 00:30:41,879 --> 00:30:39,360 do is extremely complex and difficult 601 00:30:43,950 --> 00:30:41,889 what we know is that there are ten 602 00:30:47,639 --> 00:30:43,960 people in the outside which is that to 603 00:30:49,740 --> 00:30:47,649 the Stars team but according to Jim semi 604 00:30:51,240 --> 00:30:49,750 Vanna gave an interview or spent about 605 00:30:54,990 --> 00:30:51,250 three hours talking with it with a 606 00:30:58,169 --> 00:30:55,000 researcher he informed her my name is 607 00:31:01,740 --> 00:30:58,179 Melinda Leslie yes that's correct 608 00:31:05,669 --> 00:31:01,750 he informed her that there were 40 or 50 609 00:31:08,370 --> 00:31:05,679 people inside that were essentially in 610 00:31:11,639 --> 00:31:08,380 support of what's happening on the 611 00:31:13,470 --> 00:31:11,649 outside so what do we what do we know 612 00:31:16,560 --> 00:31:13,480 from that well first of all it means 613 00:31:18,240 --> 00:31:16,570 this thing is really substantial we also 614 00:31:19,830 --> 00:31:18,250 know that they're clearly going to be 615 00:31:22,590 --> 00:31:19,840 there's people inside the military 616 00:31:25,879 --> 00:31:22,600 intelligence complex that are opposed to 617 00:31:29,190 --> 00:31:25,889 this they don't want this to happen and 618 00:31:32,070 --> 00:31:29,200 so they're dealing with that and yet 619 00:31:34,289 --> 00:31:32,080 somehow they were able to make this 620 00:31:35,730 --> 00:31:34,299 maneuver they were cleared in some way 621 00:31:40,590 --> 00:31:35,740 some fashion we don't know the details 622 00:31:42,810 --> 00:31:40,600 but it's not something that they it's 623 00:31:45,149 --> 00:31:42,820 not something this without blowback 624 00:31:45,600 --> 00:31:45,159 without resistance second and then 625 00:31:48,389 --> 00:31:45,610 thirdly 626 00:31:50,039 --> 00:31:48,399 and it's very clear when you when you 627 00:31:53,129 --> 00:31:50,049 when you read everything that they've 628 00:31:55,169 --> 00:31:53,139 said and report it that they're 629 00:31:59,460 --> 00:31:55,179 operating with in some careful 630 00:32:02,009 --> 00:31:59,470 parameters meaning they're not releasing 631 00:32:04,529 --> 00:32:02,019 classified information they're not 632 00:32:04,799 --> 00:32:04,539 violating any non-disclosure agreements 633 00:32:08,249 --> 00:32:04,809 that the 634 00:32:11,970 --> 00:32:08,259 have they're not dividing any security 635 00:32:14,820 --> 00:32:11,980 O's in other words they're playing by 636 00:32:16,980 --> 00:32:14,830 the rules and they have to continue to 637 00:32:20,190 --> 00:32:16,990 play by the rules regardless of how what 638 00:32:22,950 --> 00:32:20,200 we want they have to stay within the 639 00:32:25,529 --> 00:32:22,960 lines or they're gonna get pushback that 640 00:32:27,560 --> 00:32:25,539 may prevent them from moving forward so 641 00:32:30,720 --> 00:32:27,570 they are they're navigating some very 642 00:32:33,509 --> 00:32:30,730 difficult and tricky waters how and then 643 00:32:35,159 --> 00:32:33,519 the fourth point is this and you have to 644 00:32:38,340 --> 00:32:35,169 keep reminding yourself with this every 645 00:32:42,830 --> 00:32:38,350 day that what is going on in the United 646 00:32:45,810 --> 00:32:42,840 States right now is almost unprecedented 647 00:32:50,539 --> 00:32:45,820 we're in the middle of a degree of 648 00:32:53,639 --> 00:32:50,549 political chaos not seen I don't think 649 00:32:55,739 --> 00:32:53,649 in the modern time though there have 650 00:32:58,739 --> 00:32:55,749 been a few times it got pretty wild and 651 00:33:00,930 --> 00:32:58,749 crazy' 1968 was pretty crazy but not 652 00:33:03,840 --> 00:33:00,940 like this we we are we are in 653 00:33:06,450 --> 00:33:03,850 extraordinary times and the media is is 654 00:33:09,749 --> 00:33:06,460 approaching full-blown media feeding 655 00:33:12,810 --> 00:33:09,759 frenzy on this and so whatever you're 656 00:33:17,850 --> 00:33:12,820 trying to do you are competing with this 657 00:33:20,609 --> 00:33:17,860 massive hurricane of political chaos now 658 00:33:23,820 --> 00:33:20,619 the fifth point is that it's not just 659 00:33:26,549 --> 00:33:23,830 that the chaos it is the subject matter 660 00:33:27,330 --> 00:33:26,559 of the chaos in other words this we are 661 00:33:32,609 --> 00:33:27,340 we are dealing with political 662 00:33:35,430 --> 00:33:32,619 instability uncertainty and that is not 663 00:33:38,549 --> 00:33:35,440 a good environment to pursue a complex 664 00:33:40,139 --> 00:33:38,559 difficult strategy of disclosure about 665 00:33:43,680 --> 00:33:40,149 what is easily the most important issue 666 00:33:47,369 --> 00:33:43,690 in the world and so again as I pointed 667 00:33:49,080 --> 00:33:47,379 out they had a plan but that plan along 668 00:33:52,369 --> 00:33:49,090 with the plans of a lot of other people 669 00:33:56,659 --> 00:33:52,379 blue sky high on November the 8th of 670 00:34:00,090 --> 00:33:56,669 2016 and they had to reconfigure 671 00:34:03,299 --> 00:34:00,100 re-strategize and decide when to 672 00:34:04,859 --> 00:34:03,309 reengage and they waited 10 months to do 673 00:34:07,590 --> 00:34:04,869 that I thought they might even wait even 674 00:34:09,960 --> 00:34:07,600 longer but for whatever reason and I 675 00:34:11,399 --> 00:34:09,970 have mice but I am I die I have some 676 00:34:13,859 --> 00:34:11,409 speculation on that and get into it 677 00:34:16,110 --> 00:34:13,869 later they decided to move forward but 678 00:34:17,940 --> 00:34:16,120 they're moving forward carefully 679 00:34:22,100 --> 00:34:17,950 after they announced on December the 680 00:34:25,170 --> 00:34:22,110 16th as you probably know more chaos 681 00:34:27,510 --> 00:34:25,180 developed it got worse in fact it's 682 00:34:29,190 --> 00:34:27,520 gotten worse every month since that 683 00:34:32,970 --> 00:34:29,200 article was released on December the 684 00:34:35,850 --> 00:34:32,980 16th I can't I am I am following a 25 685 00:34:38,160 --> 00:34:35,860 Bob filing it every single day and I can 686 00:34:43,080 --> 00:34:38,170 barely keep up with it and so they are 687 00:34:44,880 --> 00:34:43,090 wisely waiting for a little bit some 688 00:34:46,890 --> 00:34:44,890 calm waters here before they make 689 00:34:48,090 --> 00:34:46,900 another major move and that doesn't mean 690 00:34:51,930 --> 00:34:48,100 it won't happen tomorrow 691 00:34:55,890 --> 00:34:51,940 but they're having to slow it down and I 692 00:34:59,220 --> 00:34:55,900 think it's the right move so that that 693 00:35:02,340 --> 00:34:59,230 that is my attempt to give you a sense 694 00:35:04,530 --> 00:35:02,350 of what we see going on here 695 00:35:06,540 --> 00:35:04,540 I understand all the criticisms being 696 00:35:09,960 --> 00:35:06,550 directed at this program I've seen them 697 00:35:12,870 --> 00:35:09,970 all and I respect the scrutiny I respect 698 00:35:15,210 --> 00:35:12,880 that frustration and so forth but I 699 00:35:17,850 --> 00:35:15,220 caution people or not caution but I 700 00:35:21,560 --> 00:35:17,860 encourage people to have some patience 701 00:35:24,600 --> 00:35:21,570 here some perspective and focus more on 702 00:35:27,300 --> 00:35:24,610 reading everything that they have 703 00:35:28,770 --> 00:35:27,310 written listening to all of the 704 00:35:30,540 --> 00:35:28,780 interviews that they've given and all of 705 00:35:33,890 --> 00:35:30,550 that is on my website paradigm research 706 00:35:37,590 --> 00:35:33,900 group that or just go to the section on 707 00:35:39,720 --> 00:35:37,600 to the stars Academy and you'll see it 708 00:35:43,020 --> 00:35:39,730 the links to all the articles as well as 709 00:35:45,060 --> 00:35:43,030 the videos and just and then go to the 710 00:35:46,770 --> 00:35:45,070 website study what they have there and 711 00:35:48,030 --> 00:35:46,780 just try to get up to speed on 712 00:35:52,050 --> 00:35:48,040 everything that they're doing that's 713 00:35:54,540 --> 00:35:52,060 that's what I advise and we'll see what 714 00:35:57,150 --> 00:35:54,550 happens if I if I have cause to be 715 00:35:59,010 --> 00:35:57,160 concerned about the validity or the 716 00:36:02,340 --> 00:35:59,020 intentions of this program I assure you 717 00:36:03,990 --> 00:36:02,350 I will be public with that well they've 718 00:36:05,520 --> 00:36:04,000 been pretty simple about what they said 719 00:36:07,770 --> 00:36:05,530 they really wanted to do which is 720 00:36:09,540 --> 00:36:07,780 basically develop entertainment 721 00:36:11,670 --> 00:36:09,550 properties and looks like they're 722 00:36:15,390 --> 00:36:11,680 working on that although that can take a 723 00:36:17,340 --> 00:36:15,400 while to they've also said that they 724 00:36:20,250 --> 00:36:17,350 want to get the conversation going with 725 00:36:24,840 --> 00:36:20,260 the American people about the UFO issue 726 00:36:27,090 --> 00:36:24,850 and certainly among UFO buffs like James 727 00:36:28,290 --> 00:36:27,100 and I and most of the people would be 728 00:36:29,280 --> 00:36:28,300 listening to this they've definitely 729 00:36:30,960 --> 00:36:29,290 done that 730 00:36:33,240 --> 00:36:30,970 not so sure how successful they've been 731 00:36:37,080 --> 00:36:33,250 with the general public and they've also 732 00:36:39,480 --> 00:36:37,090 said they literally want to build a ship 733 00:36:41,700 --> 00:36:39,490 that'll do essentially what you opposed 734 00:36:43,470 --> 00:36:41,710 do those are the three goals and 735 00:36:45,780 --> 00:36:43,480 generally you got I think you can take 736 00:36:49,650 --> 00:36:45,790 people at their word in terms of doing 737 00:36:53,310 --> 00:36:49,660 what they say they want to do in that 738 00:36:54,810 --> 00:36:53,320 regard let's I might be missing 739 00:36:58,920 --> 00:36:54,820 something in there but I think those are 740 00:37:01,320 --> 00:36:58,930 three you got it but not surprisingly 741 00:37:04,980 --> 00:37:01,330 given that we're dealing with the 80 742 00:37:07,650 --> 00:37:04,990 issue and we're dealing with with the 743 00:37:10,520 --> 00:37:07,660 Defense Department and the military 744 00:37:12,920 --> 00:37:10,530 intelligence complex things are not 745 00:37:20,430 --> 00:37:12,930 exactly what they seem 746 00:37:22,470 --> 00:37:20,440 and let me elaborate on that the the PR 747 00:37:24,500 --> 00:37:22,480 aspect of this which Tom DeLonge has 748 00:37:27,720 --> 00:37:24,510 spoken to directly is pretty obvious 749 00:37:30,810 --> 00:37:27,730 they clearly are trying to help he is 750 00:37:35,040 --> 00:37:30,820 trying to help and the program is geared 751 00:37:37,500 --> 00:37:35,050 to show the the national security 752 00:37:39,120 --> 00:37:37,510 structures as wanting to be part of the 753 00:37:41,910 --> 00:37:39,130 solution not the problem 754 00:37:44,550 --> 00:37:41,920 and get ahead of the issue so that their 755 00:37:46,260 --> 00:37:44,560 PR problems will be diminished when 756 00:37:50,930 --> 00:37:46,270 disclosure funding comes and they're 757 00:37:55,110 --> 00:37:50,940 going to have plenty of that secondly 758 00:37:57,720 --> 00:37:55,120 they want to convey information in his 759 00:38:00,330 --> 00:37:57,730 multimedia form in other words an 760 00:38:03,420 --> 00:38:00,340 educational aspect of the thing which 761 00:38:06,030 --> 00:38:03,430 they've done some of that it's slow 762 00:38:11,640 --> 00:38:06,040 second book just came out secret 763 00:38:12,870 --> 00:38:11,650 machines a hidden fire or something and 764 00:38:15,180 --> 00:38:12,880 that's fine we know that they were 765 00:38:19,020 --> 00:38:15,190 working on a dock because that was 766 00:38:21,510 --> 00:38:19,030 confirmed in the Podesta email leaks the 767 00:38:27,630 --> 00:38:21,520 third thing they did which was announced 768 00:38:30,380 --> 00:38:27,640 on October 11th 2016 was indicate that 769 00:38:34,590 --> 00:38:30,390 they were gonna raise money to pursue 770 00:38:38,730 --> 00:38:34,600 research and development in what we 771 00:38:40,740 --> 00:38:38,740 might call et related threads not the 772 00:38:42,960 --> 00:38:40,750 least of which being anti-gravity and 773 00:38:45,410 --> 00:38:42,970 they set up a non they say 774 00:38:48,480 --> 00:38:45,420 a public service corporation which is a 775 00:38:50,820 --> 00:38:48,490 form of corporation public benefit 776 00:38:53,250 --> 00:38:50,830 corporation which is fairly simple and 777 00:38:57,990 --> 00:38:53,260 doesn't have a lot of bells and whistles 778 00:38:59,820 --> 00:38:58,000 and CIA involvement $5 to share 200 779 00:39:02,490 --> 00:38:59,830 minimum limits so people could get 780 00:39:05,220 --> 00:39:02,500 involved so they could fund their 781 00:39:05,850 --> 00:39:05,230 efforts and be involved in a piece of 782 00:39:09,450 --> 00:39:05,860 the action 783 00:39:12,450 --> 00:39:09,460 totally appropriate also understand that 784 00:39:14,970 --> 00:39:12,460 these people that are on this team are 785 00:39:18,780 --> 00:39:14,980 very high level people capable of making 786 00:39:20,160 --> 00:39:18,790 very substantial incomes and the idea 787 00:39:23,310 --> 00:39:20,170 that they're just gonna volunteer for 788 00:39:25,350 --> 00:39:23,320 this program I don't think so and so 789 00:39:28,800 --> 00:39:25,360 there's gonna be money to pay people and 790 00:39:31,950 --> 00:39:28,810 to do fundamental functions but they in 791 00:39:33,900 --> 00:39:31,960 they sort of implied that boy if we 792 00:39:35,310 --> 00:39:33,910 could raise huge amount of money we 793 00:39:39,900 --> 00:39:35,320 could look in Annegret videos we could 794 00:39:42,360 --> 00:39:39,910 do all this that I do not accept at face 795 00:39:45,330 --> 00:39:42,370 value I believe that's a 796 00:39:52,290 --> 00:39:45,340 misrepresentation but I understand why 797 00:39:55,890 --> 00:39:52,300 it is and the reason is this as I said 798 00:39:58,970 --> 00:39:55,900 before everybody on this team has 799 00:40:03,480 --> 00:39:58,980 national security credentials 800 00:40:05,880 --> 00:40:03,490 non-disclosure agreements and and and so 801 00:40:07,740 --> 00:40:05,890 forth that they're gonna carry for the 802 00:40:10,320 --> 00:40:07,750 rest of their lives and they're they are 803 00:40:12,480 --> 00:40:10,330 not violating those which means and I 804 00:40:14,310 --> 00:40:12,490 can assure you that every member of that 805 00:40:15,830 --> 00:40:14,320 team there's a lot more about this issue 806 00:40:18,750 --> 00:40:15,840 than they're saying 807 00:40:20,460 --> 00:40:18,760 and one of the things they know is that 808 00:40:23,670 --> 00:40:20,470 the US government has been researching 809 00:40:26,460 --> 00:40:23,680 this program forever and has been doing 810 00:40:28,620 --> 00:40:26,470 reengineering on on ET technology 811 00:40:31,290 --> 00:40:28,630 anti-gravity x energy systems and god 812 00:40:33,810 --> 00:40:31,300 knows what with billions and billions of 813 00:40:35,520 --> 00:40:33,820 dollars and so the idea that they're 814 00:40:38,970 --> 00:40:35,530 going to publicly raise a bunch of money 815 00:40:46,200 --> 00:40:38,980 and what reinvent the wheel I don't 816 00:40:50,670 --> 00:40:46,210 think so and so what is going on here my 817 00:40:53,970 --> 00:40:50,680 best assessment is this whatever money 818 00:40:56,230 --> 00:40:53,980 they raise how much however much 819 00:40:57,970 --> 00:40:56,240 attention they get 820 00:41:01,060 --> 00:40:57,980 however much contribution they make to 821 00:41:05,590 --> 00:41:01,070 the disclosure process which they are 822 00:41:09,190 --> 00:41:05,600 making they will most certainly be out 823 00:41:13,740 --> 00:41:09,200 in front of this issue when disclosure 824 00:41:16,120 --> 00:41:13,750 comes and when disclosure cones 825 00:41:19,180 --> 00:41:16,130 obviously the pressure on the government 826 00:41:22,720 --> 00:41:19,190 to start revealing technological 827 00:41:25,960 --> 00:41:22,730 developments et related is going to be 828 00:41:28,630 --> 00:41:25,970 intense and ultimately the government is 829 00:41:32,230 --> 00:41:28,640 going to have to share give up work with 830 00:41:34,930 --> 00:41:32,240 in a public domain what it has and the 831 00:41:36,670 --> 00:41:34,940 and that is that is a massive transition 832 00:41:40,360 --> 00:41:36,680 and when you have transitions of that 833 00:41:45,390 --> 00:41:40,370 magnitude a lot of money changes hands a 834 00:41:47,290 --> 00:41:45,400 lot of opportunity is available and 835 00:41:49,390 --> 00:41:47,300 everybody's going to want to be there 836 00:41:52,330 --> 00:41:49,400 all the big corporations all the big 837 00:41:53,320 --> 00:41:52,340 institutions you name it everyone is 838 00:41:57,010 --> 00:41:53,330 going to weigh part of that transition 839 00:41:58,840 --> 00:41:57,020 and the ones that are ahead of the curve 840 00:42:01,420 --> 00:41:58,850 the ones that are out in front are the 841 00:42:05,530 --> 00:42:01,430 ones that are more likely to be able to 842 00:42:07,710 --> 00:42:05,540 participate early on and who are the 843 00:42:12,370 --> 00:42:07,720 people that are out in front right now 844 00:42:19,930 --> 00:42:12,380 well to the Stars Academy is Yvonne musk 845 00:42:20,620 --> 00:42:19,940 is Richard Branson is Jeff Bezos is yuri 846 00:42:26,020 --> 00:42:20,630 milner 847 00:42:28,950 --> 00:42:26,030 is Robert Bigelow is and every one of 848 00:42:32,640 --> 00:42:28,960 the people I mentioned or billionaires 849 00:42:37,150 --> 00:42:32,650 and to give you a how how weird does get 850 00:42:37,930 --> 00:42:37,160 Musk Bezos SpaceX the whole nine yards 851 00:42:39,430 --> 00:42:37,940 what's this all about 852 00:42:40,540 --> 00:42:39,440 well we're gonna commercialize space and 853 00:42:43,480 --> 00:42:40,550 they're making these these these 854 00:42:45,880 --> 00:42:43,490 chemical rockets civilian rockets they 855 00:42:49,120 --> 00:42:45,890 could go into orbit and even land there 856 00:42:52,210 --> 00:42:49,130 their fuel pods that's all cool except 857 00:42:55,480 --> 00:42:52,220 that it's a little odd because these are 858 00:42:58,420 --> 00:42:55,490 billionaires they have access to 859 00:43:01,450 --> 00:42:58,430 information they have people lining up 860 00:43:04,720 --> 00:43:01,460 to tell them things they're very smart 861 00:43:06,220 --> 00:43:04,730 the idea that they don't know that the 862 00:43:08,380 --> 00:43:06,230 government is fully aware of an et 863 00:43:09,670 --> 00:43:08,390 presence and has been working on that 864 00:43:12,790 --> 00:43:09,680 subject for seven 865 00:43:15,820 --> 00:43:12,800 years is laughable of course they know 866 00:43:18,820 --> 00:43:15,830 and so what in the hell is Liam Ian Ian 867 00:43:21,340 --> 00:43:18,830 Dale on must doing spending all this 868 00:43:22,900 --> 00:43:21,350 money building chemical rockets when the 869 00:43:26,110 --> 00:43:22,910 US government is probably an antigravity 870 00:43:29,890 --> 00:43:26,120 craft for fifty years because he can't 871 00:43:31,750 --> 00:43:29,900 build anti-gravity craft and if he tried 872 00:43:34,690 --> 00:43:31,760 to he would be messing with the primal 873 00:43:37,420 --> 00:43:34,700 forces there and so he and the other 874 00:43:40,390 --> 00:43:37,430 guys are being the commercial space 875 00:43:42,250 --> 00:43:40,400 pioneers but when the real technology 876 00:43:46,390 --> 00:43:42,260 comes out who's going to be first in 877 00:43:50,020 --> 00:43:46,400 line to quote be part of that and so I 878 00:43:51,730 --> 00:43:50,030 assure you it disclosure comes and Anna 879 00:43:54,820 --> 00:43:51,740 Grammatik technology is finally a 880 00:43:57,310 --> 00:43:54,830 released or becomes known about in the 881 00:43:59,650 --> 00:43:57,320 post disclosure world Elon Musk will 882 00:44:02,710 --> 00:43:59,660 drop his chemical rocket program so fast 883 00:44:04,810 --> 00:44:02,720 you won't even notice it and so again 884 00:44:07,810 --> 00:44:04,820 why the gain why do they have to front 885 00:44:10,540 --> 00:44:07,820 it because remember the et subject is 886 00:44:12,120 --> 00:44:10,550 still fully classified in the deepest 887 00:44:14,680 --> 00:44:12,130 part of the military-industrial complex 888 00:44:18,190 --> 00:44:14,690 the government's position on this is 889 00:44:22,210 --> 00:44:18,200 still there is no extraterrestrial 890 00:44:26,470 --> 00:44:22,220 presence period that's their formal 891 00:44:30,630 --> 00:44:26,480 position and so all of this is having to 892 00:44:35,740 --> 00:44:30,640 be done in this somewhat evasive 893 00:44:37,270 --> 00:44:35,750 somewhat misdirected manner because of 894 00:44:41,620 --> 00:44:37,280 the truth embargo which we're still 895 00:44:44,680 --> 00:44:41,630 under and I get it I am NOT gonna scream 896 00:44:46,180 --> 00:44:44,690 and yell at these guys just like you 897 00:44:48,600 --> 00:44:46,190 know I try not to scream and yell at 898 00:44:51,760 --> 00:44:48,610 SETI too much because the truth embargo 899 00:44:55,180 --> 00:44:51,770 ultimately makes fools of us all one way 900 00:44:56,700 --> 00:44:55,190 or the other but nevertheless we're 901 00:44:59,010 --> 00:44:56,710 heading in the right direction 902 00:45:00,850 --> 00:44:59,020 billionaires involved in et issue 903 00:45:03,640 --> 00:45:00,860 billionaires involved in space 904 00:45:05,890 --> 00:45:03,650 exploration government people coming 905 00:45:09,490 --> 00:45:05,900 forward given what we've gone through 906 00:45:12,010 --> 00:45:09,500 since 1947 I'm pretty happy with all 907 00:45:15,210 --> 00:45:12,020 that and I assure you if we didn't have 908 00:45:17,740 --> 00:45:15,220 an absolute 10 ring political circus 909 00:45:20,170 --> 00:45:17,750 going on right now with clown cars 910 00:45:22,120 --> 00:45:20,180 everywhere we'd probably be a hell of a 911 00:45:23,440 --> 00:45:22,130 lot further along but that's what's 912 00:45:25,000 --> 00:45:23,450 happened that's that's the 913 00:45:27,370 --> 00:45:25,010 that's the the hand that's been dealt 914 00:45:30,549 --> 00:45:27,380 and we have to play it now Eugene 915 00:45:33,190 --> 00:45:30,559 Oh God God James no I was gonna say now 916 00:45:35,500 --> 00:45:33,200 we have a tip finally revealed that 917 00:45:37,539 --> 00:45:35,510 there was indeed a government program 918 00:45:40,120 --> 00:45:37,549 investigating UFOs that's on the record 919 00:45:43,180 --> 00:45:40,130 yeah and we have the DoD release of the 920 00:45:48,490 --> 00:45:43,190 videos and to star Academy's involvement 921 00:45:50,289 --> 00:45:48,500 and it seems that the the public it 922 00:45:52,000 --> 00:45:50,299 seems to be more accepting of all this 923 00:45:53,980 --> 00:45:52,010 they're like oh wow the government was 924 00:45:56,620 --> 00:45:53,990 looking to UFOs sure but the UFO 925 00:45:59,650 --> 00:45:56,630 community has such a push back on this 926 00:46:01,180 --> 00:45:59,660 and and it's pretty astonishing it's 927 00:46:03,490 --> 00:46:01,190 like that it's finally here now they 928 00:46:06,730 --> 00:46:03,500 don't want it it's not that I don't want 929 00:46:09,400 --> 00:46:06,740 it the it again what is the UFO 930 00:46:12,910 --> 00:46:09,410 community it's a it's a very imprecise 931 00:46:16,299 --> 00:46:12,920 term let's just say that the the 932 00:46:20,859 --> 00:46:16,309 community of people who have invested a 933 00:46:25,240 --> 00:46:20,869 lot of their time some money into the 934 00:46:26,230 --> 00:46:25,250 subject and understanding it researching 935 00:46:28,089 --> 00:46:26,240 and writing about it 936 00:46:29,799 --> 00:46:28,099 caring about it which includes people 937 00:46:31,750 --> 00:46:29,809 that have had profound sightings which 938 00:46:35,260 --> 00:46:31,760 will stick with you the rest of your 939 00:46:36,789 --> 00:46:35,270 life and of course contactees this 940 00:46:39,880 --> 00:46:36,799 community has been living under a truth 941 00:46:43,180 --> 00:46:39,890 embargo since the day was born and 942 00:46:48,010 --> 00:46:43,190 that's not fun it's pretty damn 943 00:46:50,970 --> 00:46:48,020 frustrating just like yeah a lot of 944 00:46:53,760 --> 00:46:50,980 people of color they were born into 945 00:46:56,680 --> 00:46:53,770 segregation and racism the turn of the 946 00:47:00,220 --> 00:46:56,690 twentieth century they had to live with 947 00:47:03,789 --> 00:47:00,230 it their entire life and many of them 948 00:47:07,120 --> 00:47:03,799 didn't even see the Civil Rights Act and 949 00:47:10,270 --> 00:47:07,130 the Voting Rights Act history can 950 00:47:15,870 --> 00:47:10,280 sometimes be slow change painful change 951 00:47:18,579 --> 00:47:15,880 slow and that's just the way it is but 952 00:47:20,500 --> 00:47:18,589 this is a time when people have a 953 00:47:21,730 --> 00:47:20,510 tremendous voice they have the ability 954 00:47:25,740 --> 00:47:21,740 to voice their irritations and 955 00:47:28,569 --> 00:47:25,750 complaints to the world theoretically I 956 00:47:30,760 --> 00:47:28,579 can put up a blog piece on my site and 957 00:47:32,859 --> 00:47:30,770 theoretically every single person with a 958 00:47:35,319 --> 00:47:32,869 computer in the world could go read it 959 00:47:37,130 --> 00:47:35,329 and so this stuff is happening and they 960 00:47:38,630 --> 00:47:37,140 didn't happening fast enough for me 961 00:47:40,640 --> 00:47:38,640 they want it now they want it 962 00:47:41,990 --> 00:47:40,650 immediately and they're suspicious the 963 00:47:44,210 --> 00:47:42,000 government's been lying about the issue 964 00:47:46,849 --> 00:47:44,220 for 70 years why would they tell the 965 00:47:48,920 --> 00:47:46,859 truth now I get that and and so it's the 966 00:47:53,299 --> 00:47:48,930 people that have the emotional invested 967 00:47:57,940 --> 00:47:53,309 interest that are most willing and 968 00:48:00,650 --> 00:47:57,950 descripton eyes and find fault with 969 00:48:04,609 --> 00:48:00,660 whatever turns up in this area and I'm 970 00:48:06,230 --> 00:48:04,619 fine with that let it be scrutinized we 971 00:48:08,029 --> 00:48:06,240 want somebody paying attention the 972 00:48:09,470 --> 00:48:08,039 general public doesn't have that 973 00:48:12,589 --> 00:48:09,480 investment and they're going oh this is 974 00:48:15,470 --> 00:48:12,599 cool so I'm not going to overreact to 975 00:48:16,460 --> 00:48:15,480 the to the criticisms the skeptics on it 976 00:48:20,049 --> 00:48:16,470 and what-have-you 977 00:48:22,190 --> 00:48:20,059 what I can do is inform and enlighten 978 00:48:24,529 --> 00:48:22,200 because I do spend a lot of time with 979 00:48:26,839 --> 00:48:24,539 this so that people at least have 980 00:48:31,009 --> 00:48:26,849 reasonably good information as they 981 00:48:32,480 --> 00:48:31,019 contemplate these developments now I you 982 00:48:34,849 --> 00:48:32,490 were talking a little bit about that 983 00:48:38,089 --> 00:48:34,859 pressure from the outside on this 984 00:48:40,490 --> 00:48:38,099 governmental apparatus which is really 985 00:48:43,039 --> 00:48:40,500 not part of the the legislative branch 986 00:48:45,529 --> 00:48:43,049 or the judicial branch likely under the 987 00:48:47,630 --> 00:48:45,539 executive branch and our current 988 00:48:49,509 --> 00:48:47,640 president as you mentioned seems to be 989 00:48:54,650 --> 00:48:49,519 tied up with some other things right now 990 00:48:57,259 --> 00:48:54,660 as far as any kind of a groundswell of 991 00:49:00,349 --> 00:48:57,269 support for more information coming from 992 00:49:01,519 --> 00:49:00,359 Congress you work the halls you've been 993 00:49:04,609 --> 00:49:01,529 there you've talked to a lot of these 994 00:49:07,599 --> 00:49:04,619 people what the kind of sense do you get 995 00:49:10,900 --> 00:49:07,609 is that going to heat up at all no 996 00:49:16,640 --> 00:49:10,910 congress is essentially a dead duck a 997 00:49:21,339 --> 00:49:16,650 dead duck walking it it has been for 998 00:49:25,509 --> 00:49:21,349 some time a victim of hyper-partisanship 999 00:49:29,509 --> 00:49:25,519 what's essentially froze the engine and 1000 00:49:34,730 --> 00:49:29,519 as a result what's going on with 1001 00:49:39,039 --> 00:49:34,740 Congress is it's it's sort of stewing in 1002 00:49:44,329 --> 00:49:39,049 its own juice boiling like a frog 1003 00:49:49,940 --> 00:49:44,339 until a good deal of it dies off to be 1004 00:49:50,740 --> 00:49:49,950 replaced by new new blood we're going to 1005 00:49:53,440 --> 00:49:50,750 before the 1006 00:49:55,720 --> 00:49:53,450 Congress will become viable and 1007 00:49:58,510 --> 00:49:55,730 interested in anything outside its own 1008 00:50:00,430 --> 00:49:58,520 survival we're going to have to see 1009 00:50:04,570 --> 00:50:00,440 major reforms in both the Democratic and 1010 00:50:08,260 --> 00:50:04,580 Republican Party these are non trivial 1011 00:50:09,940 --> 00:50:08,270 matters now as it happens the Congress 1012 00:50:11,800 --> 00:50:09,950 is out of the loop on the ET issue they 1013 00:50:13,960 --> 00:50:11,810 got nothing they have been for a very 1014 00:50:15,490 --> 00:50:13,970 long time and then includes all the 1015 00:50:17,050 --> 00:50:15,500 appropriate oversight committees all of 1016 00:50:20,140 --> 00:50:17,060 this is a constitutional breach I know 1017 00:50:22,660 --> 00:50:20,150 but that's just the truth of it so in a 1018 00:50:23,860 --> 00:50:22,670 sense they're not in the game but in the 1019 00:50:26,530 --> 00:50:23,870 sense that they're somehow gonna become 1020 00:50:29,110 --> 00:50:26,540 part of the game know again they're all 1021 00:50:30,610 --> 00:50:29,120 drowning in a way and until they they're 1022 00:50:32,560 --> 00:50:30,620 able to climb out of the water dry 1023 00:50:36,880 --> 00:50:32,570 themselves off and decide what they're 1024 00:50:39,010 --> 00:50:36,890 going to do or and just leave to be 1025 00:50:40,840 --> 00:50:39,020 replaced by a new blood we're not gonna 1026 00:50:43,030 --> 00:50:40,850 see much there you have an unprecedented 1027 00:50:44,800 --> 00:50:43,040 number of retirements you're going to 1028 00:50:47,950 --> 00:50:44,810 see the largest wave election in history 1029 00:50:50,620 --> 00:50:47,960 in a few months and a lot of other 1030 00:50:53,430 --> 00:50:50,630 things so consider Congress part of that 1031 00:50:55,840 --> 00:50:53,440 political chaos hurricane going on and 1032 00:50:58,690 --> 00:50:55,850 that's all that that's all that's going 1033 00:51:01,630 --> 00:50:58,700 there and I don't I don't even think 1034 00:51:03,850 --> 00:51:01,640 about him at this point now you did put 1035 00:51:05,980 --> 00:51:03,860 together a few years back the the mock 1036 00:51:09,190 --> 00:51:05,990 congressional hearing where you had an 1037 00:51:12,850 --> 00:51:09,200 former senator and a handful of former 1038 00:51:15,190 --> 00:51:12,860 Congress people on this committee now I 1039 00:51:18,040 --> 00:51:15,200 assume that you didn't put that that 1040 00:51:21,280 --> 00:51:18,050 group together picking names out of a 1041 00:51:22,750 --> 00:51:21,290 hat with there's some genuine interest 1042 00:51:26,040 --> 00:51:22,760 there from those folks before they 1043 00:51:29,890 --> 00:51:26,050 agreed to sign up for that particular 1044 00:51:34,090 --> 00:51:29,900 presentation I can't speak for them 1045 00:51:39,220 --> 00:51:34,100 personally but the their the the view of 1046 00:51:41,920 --> 00:51:39,230 the Congress persons on the subject of 1047 00:51:44,770 --> 00:51:41,930 the et issue was not a compactor then 1048 00:51:49,440 --> 00:51:44,780 they were never asked they were 1049 00:51:56,950 --> 00:51:55,600 and there might have been I suppose 1050 00:51:58,180 --> 00:51:56,960 there were a few members of Congress for 1051 00:51:59,730 --> 00:51:58,190 four members of Congress they might not 1052 00:52:01,720 --> 00:51:59,740 have a simply because of other issues 1053 00:52:04,450 --> 00:52:01,730 concerns but overall they were 1054 00:52:06,339 --> 00:52:04,460 approached on availability and and by 1055 00:52:08,950 --> 00:52:06,349 laurens they all came in to the issue in 1056 00:52:10,930 --> 00:52:08,960 issue relatively neutral they were on 1057 00:52:14,410 --> 00:52:10,940 the fence they were not ideologues 1058 00:52:16,570 --> 00:52:14,420 either way and has it happened not 1059 00:52:19,000 --> 00:52:16,580 surprisingly when it was over they were 1060 00:52:21,160 --> 00:52:19,010 powerfully affected by the testimony and 1061 00:52:23,109 --> 00:52:21,170 a couple of them had been very 1062 00:52:25,020 --> 00:52:23,119 aggressive and speaking about it since 1063 00:52:27,670 --> 00:52:25,030 though there's not a lot they can do 1064 00:52:30,040 --> 00:52:27,680 again they're not going to be able to 1065 00:52:31,570 --> 00:52:30,050 and I didn't marshal them to go to 1066 00:52:34,180 --> 00:52:31,580 Congress to get here because I know 1067 00:52:35,920 --> 00:52:34,190 would have been a waste of time but that 1068 00:52:39,099 --> 00:52:35,930 was an important event in and of itself 1069 00:52:42,160 --> 00:52:39,109 and it's been recorded and it's it's 1070 00:52:43,690 --> 00:52:42,170 gonna be there forever and it was but it 1071 00:52:46,000 --> 00:52:43,700 was most importantly the platform in 1072 00:52:48,550 --> 00:52:46,010 which to launch the 2016 election 1073 00:52:51,520 --> 00:52:48,560 political initiative which almost got us 1074 00:52:56,770 --> 00:52:51,530 disclosure in 2016 so it was part of a 1075 00:52:58,810 --> 00:52:56,780 larger strategy and I'm very proud of 1076 00:52:59,560 --> 00:52:58,820 that event and and hope to see it have 1077 00:53:03,790 --> 00:52:59,570 impact 1078 00:53:10,089 --> 00:53:03,800 very interesting 1079 00:53:12,520 --> 00:53:10,099 absolutely so right now just Congress 1080 00:53:14,220 --> 00:53:12,530 just too partisan they're not gonna 1081 00:53:16,570 --> 00:53:14,230 touch this issue with a ten-foot pole 1082 00:53:19,810 --> 00:53:16,580 they're not touching anything virtually 1083 00:53:22,240 --> 00:53:19,820 I mean about them if they could just 1084 00:53:24,849 --> 00:53:22,250 read up the budget for a month they 1085 00:53:28,390 --> 00:53:24,859 consider themselves to had a successful 1086 00:53:30,190 --> 00:53:28,400 month and it's it's the final breakdown 1087 00:53:32,349 --> 00:53:30,200 of a system that's been in dysfunction 1088 00:53:36,790 --> 00:53:32,359 for decades and we're seeing in other 1089 00:53:41,290 --> 00:53:36,800 words the the the the car of state which 1090 00:53:46,270 --> 00:53:41,300 was once a beautifully conditioned well 1091 00:53:48,339 --> 00:53:46,280 running Lincoln Towncar is now virtually 1092 00:53:51,750 --> 00:53:48,349 broken down to the point where it can't 1093 00:53:54,730 --> 00:53:51,760 drive you can't get up the road 1094 00:53:57,609 --> 00:53:54,740 nothing erupted but the UFO issue does 1095 00:54:00,430 --> 00:53:57,619 sort of occupy this rather odd place in 1096 00:54:03,010 --> 00:54:00,440 that as far as the the left and right 1097 00:54:04,920 --> 00:54:03,020 politics it it doesn't seem to impact 1098 00:54:07,420 --> 00:54:04,930 that you can have a very conservative 1099 00:54:09,370 --> 00:54:07,430 politician like going back away say 1100 00:54:12,130 --> 00:54:09,380 Barry Goldwater who spoke fairly openly 1101 00:54:14,290 --> 00:54:12,140 about it and then a Democrat leader like 1102 00:54:16,130 --> 00:54:14,300 Harry Reid also getting involved so it 1103 00:54:17,930 --> 00:54:16,140 doesn't have that kind of division 1104 00:54:19,250 --> 00:54:17,940 and if you're interested you're 1105 00:54:21,440 --> 00:54:19,260 interested it doesn't seem to matter if 1106 00:54:24,200 --> 00:54:21,450 you're left to right very true 1107 00:54:26,180 --> 00:54:24,210 good point the et issue is done is is 1108 00:54:29,780 --> 00:54:26,190 basically nonpartisan it transcends 1109 00:54:36,170 --> 00:54:29,790 politics transcends religion so in that 1110 00:54:39,080 --> 00:54:36,180 sense that's that's a plus but Congress 1111 00:54:41,270 --> 00:54:39,090 is so screwed up doesn't matter the fact 1112 00:54:44,330 --> 00:54:41,280 that it's nonpartisan doesn't matter in 1113 00:54:47,660 --> 00:54:44,340 other words you know it's like imagine 1114 00:54:49,520 --> 00:54:47,670 some but but it better might it might if 1115 00:54:52,790 --> 00:54:49,530 the environment were a little less 1116 00:54:53,840 --> 00:54:52,800 chaotic though well maybe but yeah 1117 00:54:55,400 --> 00:54:53,850 you're right you're right it's like a 1118 00:54:56,420 --> 00:54:55,410 bar fight going on and people are 1119 00:54:59,030 --> 00:54:56,430 beating each other over the head with 1120 00:55:01,040 --> 00:54:59,040 tables and chairs and so forth fighting 1121 00:55:04,220 --> 00:55:01,050 like crazy and you're you walk into the 1122 00:55:06,440 --> 00:55:04,230 bar and and you you just want to get you 1123 00:55:08,150 --> 00:55:06,450 know you're not you don't have a stake 1124 00:55:12,080 --> 00:55:08,160 in the fight and you just want to get 1125 00:55:13,640 --> 00:55:12,090 directions to to someplace down the road 1126 00:55:15,830 --> 00:55:13,650 and nobody's gonna pay attention to you 1127 00:55:20,540 --> 00:55:15,840 and it's like that so nothing's gonna 1128 00:55:23,750 --> 00:55:20,550 happen there and when that will change I 1129 00:55:26,210 --> 00:55:23,760 don't know hopefully early next year 1130 00:55:27,530 --> 00:55:26,220 we'll see something well we'll see then 1131 00:55:29,420 --> 00:55:27,540 they let the next election is going to 1132 00:55:30,770 --> 00:55:29,430 be very important in determining whether 1133 00:55:32,900 --> 00:55:30,780 things are gonna settle down or whether 1134 00:55:36,430 --> 00:55:32,910 Congress is going to start doing some 1135 00:55:38,540 --> 00:55:36,440 real reforms so a best-case scenario 1136 00:55:41,420 --> 00:55:38,550 what said the best thing that can happen 1137 00:55:43,850 --> 00:55:41,430 it seems like the to the stars Academy 1138 00:55:46,610 --> 00:55:43,860 is holding at least the best hand right 1139 00:55:50,570 --> 00:55:46,620 now any kind of wild cards might get 1140 00:55:52,790 --> 00:55:50,580 played and what might happen that might 1141 00:55:54,170 --> 00:55:52,800 change things to get us a little bit 1142 00:55:57,200 --> 00:55:54,180 more information a little bit more 1143 00:56:02,410 --> 00:55:57,210 quickly hmm there's some wild cards out 1144 00:56:07,970 --> 00:56:02,420 there there are several scenarios here 1145 00:56:11,870 --> 00:56:07,980 what are the reasons I think that the to 1146 00:56:15,590 --> 00:56:11,880 the Stars team elected to go ahead and 1147 00:56:18,910 --> 00:56:15,600 launch on October 11th as opposed to 1148 00:56:21,710 --> 00:56:18,920 waiting longer maybe even much longer 1149 00:56:24,440 --> 00:56:21,720 until things died down is they have 1150 00:56:27,050 --> 00:56:24,450 another problem they have another 1151 00:56:30,039 --> 00:56:27,060 concern besides their public relations 1152 00:56:36,609 --> 00:56:34,930 and their desire to help is it our 1153 00:56:40,480 --> 00:56:36,619 president isn't the only head of state 1154 00:56:42,130 --> 00:56:40,490 that could announce the et presence our 1155 00:56:45,549 --> 00:56:42,140 country is not the only country that has 1156 00:56:48,390 --> 00:56:45,559 Reebs of gun camera footage or other 1157 00:56:50,859 --> 00:56:48,400 evidence that would be rather persuasive 1158 00:56:53,950 --> 00:56:50,869 and for whatever reason nor the head of 1159 00:56:55,240 --> 00:56:53,960 state as made that move though a number 1160 00:57:00,700 --> 00:56:55,250 of other countries have done things 1161 00:57:04,210 --> 00:57:00,710 which were stimulating to the disclosure 1162 00:57:06,130 --> 00:57:04,220 process release of files many countries 1163 00:57:09,069 --> 00:57:06,140 probably almost over well over two dozen 1164 00:57:11,950 --> 00:57:09,079 countries have voluntarily released 1165 00:57:14,440 --> 00:57:11,960 substantial files to the Internet the US 1166 00:57:17,650 --> 00:57:14,450 government has not done that not in that 1167 00:57:19,839 --> 00:57:17,660 fashion so that's a problem for that and 1168 00:57:22,529 --> 00:57:19,849 and and then they got me I'm kind of a 1169 00:57:26,920 --> 00:57:22,539 problem for them too 1170 00:57:32,470 --> 00:57:26,930 two things the first of all it was PRG 1171 00:57:34,180 --> 00:57:32,480 that finally brought the clinton et 1172 00:57:37,839 --> 00:57:34,190 connection by the Rockefeller initiative 1173 00:57:40,210 --> 00:57:37,849 into the news into the news cycle when 1174 00:57:42,579 --> 00:57:40,220 she ran the second time ultimately 1175 00:57:44,490 --> 00:57:42,589 generated 400 articles about the 1176 00:57:47,140 --> 00:57:44,500 connection between her and the et issue 1177 00:57:48,549 --> 00:57:47,150 during the campaign which resulted in 1178 00:57:51,670 --> 00:57:48,559 their having to speak to the issue 1179 00:57:53,890 --> 00:57:51,680 eleven times and when I say today I mean 1180 00:57:57,690 --> 00:57:53,900 the team which included herself her 1181 00:57:59,829 --> 00:57:57,700 husband John Podesta and Barack Obama 1182 00:58:05,980 --> 00:57:59,839 and that's a precedent that never 1183 00:58:09,250 --> 00:58:05,990 happened before and as a result had the 1184 00:58:11,200 --> 00:58:09,260 debate moderators passed brought up this 1185 00:58:12,970 --> 00:58:11,210 issue and that got into the debates I 1186 00:58:15,250 --> 00:58:12,980 think the story would have blown up 1187 00:58:17,109 --> 00:58:15,260 pretty big and we would have seen 1188 00:58:19,599 --> 00:58:17,119 disclosure under Obama which is the plan 1189 00:58:21,190 --> 00:58:19,609 all along but when the debate moderators 1190 00:58:24,910 --> 00:58:21,200 didn't even mention it to their 1191 00:58:27,760 --> 00:58:24,920 everlasting shame they sort of got a 1192 00:58:31,480 --> 00:58:27,770 pass there and we weren't going to see a 1193 00:58:33,069 --> 00:58:31,490 major blow-up during the 2016 but pretty 1194 00:58:35,609 --> 00:58:33,079 sure we were gonna see disclosure under 1195 00:58:39,099 --> 00:58:35,619 Clinton when she was in the White House 1196 00:58:40,870 --> 00:58:39,109 so there was that they were dealing with 1197 00:58:42,339 --> 00:58:40,880 that but they were dealing with 1198 00:58:47,289 --> 00:58:42,349 something else 1199 00:58:48,999 --> 00:58:47,299 for the last mile no 15 years I've done 1200 00:58:50,920 --> 00:58:49,009 a lot of interviews I don't know how 1201 00:58:53,259 --> 00:58:50,930 many but it's it's it's somewhere 1202 00:58:56,309 --> 00:58:53,269 between maybe 12 and 15 under diner on 1203 00:58:59,739 --> 00:58:56,319 me well one of the things I almost never 1204 00:59:02,799 --> 00:58:59,749 failed to mention at least 50% of the 1205 00:59:05,259 --> 00:59:02,809 time maybe more is this point that other 1206 00:59:07,930 --> 00:59:05,269 heads of state could and the truth 1207 00:59:10,959 --> 00:59:07,940 embargo any time they wanted to and the 1208 00:59:14,370 --> 00:59:10,969 two most likely and the two most 1209 00:59:16,329 --> 00:59:14,380 concerning from the standpoint of the US 1210 00:59:18,370 --> 00:59:16,339 government's geopolitical interests 1211 00:59:22,469 --> 00:59:18,380 would be the president of China and a 1212 00:59:25,779 --> 00:59:22,479 president of Russia Xi Jinping and 1213 00:59:27,219 --> 00:59:25,789 Vladimir Putin but the one that they 1214 00:59:29,529 --> 00:59:27,229 need to be most concerned about is 1215 00:59:32,229 --> 00:59:29,539 Vladimir Putin and I have brought up 1216 00:59:34,900 --> 00:59:32,239 Putin over and over again in these 1217 00:59:36,609 --> 00:59:34,910 interviews you know I'm talking internet 1218 00:59:38,049 --> 00:59:36,619 radio who knows listening they could be 1219 00:59:40,569 --> 00:59:38,059 10 people could be a thousand they'll 1220 00:59:42,519 --> 00:59:40,579 knows I've also written about it but I 1221 00:59:44,469 --> 00:59:42,529 bring it up it's out there they know it 1222 00:59:48,420 --> 00:59:44,479 Putin knows it and I've been mentioning 1223 00:59:49,839 --> 00:59:48,430 it for a long time however in May of 1224 00:59:54,029 --> 00:59:49,849 2017 1225 00:59:57,249 --> 00:59:54,039 I left the country in April because well 1226 00:59:59,650 --> 00:59:57,259 frankly I was kind of upset and 1227 01:00:03,339 --> 00:59:59,660 disgusted and frankly just want to get 1228 01:00:05,589 --> 01:00:03,349 away I decided to explore international 1229 01:00:08,170 --> 01:00:05,599 options so I went to London I stayed 1230 01:00:10,809 --> 01:00:08,180 there about seven months overall but 1231 01:00:12,839 --> 01:00:10,819 virtually two weeks only about two weeks 1232 01:00:16,420 --> 01:00:12,849 after I arrived in April I got a call 1233 01:00:18,539 --> 01:00:16,430 from a Russian national television 1234 01:00:21,809 --> 01:00:18,549 network they wanted to interview me 1235 01:00:23,799 --> 01:00:21,819 which I don't think was an accident 1236 01:00:25,299 --> 01:00:23,809 and they were gonna have a crew 1237 01:00:26,769 --> 01:00:25,309 interviewed me in London and I said no 1238 01:00:28,930 --> 01:00:26,779 no no I'll interview but it'll have to 1239 01:00:30,699 --> 01:00:28,940 be in Moscow and they said fine you pay 1240 01:00:33,009 --> 01:00:30,709 your way it will be happy to interview 1241 01:00:34,719 --> 01:00:33,019 here and that's what I did I flew to 1242 01:00:37,029 --> 01:00:34,729 Moscow and May the 3rd and interviewed 1243 01:00:42,989 --> 01:00:37,039 immediately that morning for an hour and 1244 01:00:45,819 --> 01:00:42,999 a half for NTV re NTV about 400 stations 1245 01:00:51,160 --> 01:00:45,829 throughout the Russian Federation and 1246 01:00:52,779 --> 01:00:51,170 about 120 million viewer base 3 popular 1247 01:00:55,180 --> 01:00:52,789 network though I mean very popular it's 1248 01:00:57,790 --> 01:00:55,190 got all the cool shows 1249 01:00:59,590 --> 01:00:57,800 and a diss interview which they 1250 01:01:02,380 --> 01:00:59,600 eventually use small parts of it in a 1251 01:01:05,520 --> 01:01:02,390 cup in a show or two but that was months 1252 01:01:07,870 --> 01:01:05,530 later but it wasn't until I think 1253 01:01:10,030 --> 01:01:07,880 September or October that I actually got 1254 01:01:12,370 --> 01:01:10,040 the my copy or a copy of the 1255 01:01:13,900 --> 01:01:12,380 english-language version they used 1256 01:01:15,520 --> 01:01:13,910 they'd they dubbed Russian over what 1257 01:01:18,310 --> 01:01:15,530 they is but I I I got the 1258 01:01:20,860 --> 01:01:18,320 english-language version and what they 1259 01:01:23,350 --> 01:01:20,870 didn't use and the reason why I went 1260 01:01:26,590 --> 01:01:23,360 there is that there was a I talked a lot 1261 01:01:30,190 --> 01:01:26,600 about Putin and XO politics and US 1262 01:01:31,570 --> 01:01:30,200 politics and Russian politics and no one 1263 01:01:33,610 --> 01:01:31,580 had ever done that before no one had 1264 01:01:36,510 --> 01:01:33,620 ever talks in this way or about the UFO 1265 01:01:42,040 --> 01:01:36,520 issue and Putin on Russian media ever 1266 01:01:45,130 --> 01:01:42,050 let alone on Russia's soil and I knew in 1267 01:01:46,570 --> 01:01:45,140 addition to that I had six meetings with 1268 01:01:48,640 --> 01:01:46,580 groups of people that were set up from 1269 01:01:50,680 --> 01:01:48,650 me by a supporter with Russian 1270 01:01:53,520 --> 01:01:50,690 connections with people that had worked 1271 01:01:55,720 --> 01:01:53,530 in the Soviet and Russian government's 1272 01:01:58,110 --> 01:01:55,730 many of which had worked on the et issue 1273 01:02:01,210 --> 01:01:58,120 and I had six meetings with six groups 1274 01:02:04,060 --> 01:02:01,220 pretty much how you doing got a 1275 01:02:05,640 --> 01:02:04,070 translator there meet and greet there's 1276 01:02:08,200 --> 01:02:05,650 not you can't go into depth because 1277 01:02:10,780 --> 01:02:08,210 again I'm talking to four people and 1278 01:02:12,850 --> 01:02:10,790 I've got one translator and looking you 1279 01:02:14,440 --> 01:02:12,860 doesn't matter I didn't care I knew that 1280 01:02:15,880 --> 01:02:14,450 if I took those meetings that guarantee 1281 01:02:20,320 --> 01:02:15,890 did the Kremlin would know it was there 1282 01:02:21,640 --> 01:02:20,330 I knew the CIA knew I was there so and I 1283 01:02:22,960 --> 01:02:21,650 was worried I might have a problem might 1284 01:02:25,180 --> 01:02:22,970 have a problem at the border going in 1285 01:02:26,890 --> 01:02:25,190 coming out but I didn't though I did try 1286 01:02:29,430 --> 01:02:26,900 to keep things on the down-low for a 1287 01:02:31,780 --> 01:02:29,440 while I did publish anything until I 1288 01:02:33,160 --> 01:02:31,790 didn't really say anything until about 1289 01:02:36,240 --> 01:02:33,170 three months later and did publish any 1290 01:02:39,700 --> 01:02:36,250 the interview until December January but 1291 01:02:41,740 --> 01:02:39,710 the point was this steve is that is that 1292 01:02:43,750 --> 01:02:41,750 the English version available and yeah 1293 01:02:45,490 --> 01:02:43,760 it's on my website you can go watch them 1294 01:02:54,430 --> 01:02:45,500 you can watch the whole Russian 1295 01:02:57,750 --> 01:02:54,440 interview what I was doing was raising 1296 01:03:03,370 --> 01:02:57,760 the bar right now raising the heat on 1297 01:03:05,560 --> 01:03:03,380 the Putin disclosure issue I in other 1298 01:03:07,660 --> 01:03:05,570 words I went to another level 1299 01:03:08,980 --> 01:03:07,670 to try to make the point to my 1300 01:03:12,790 --> 01:03:08,990 government it doesn't 1301 01:03:13,780 --> 01:03:12,800 for advice oddly enough and that 1302 01:03:16,180 --> 01:03:13,790 included the White House and the 1303 01:03:18,130 --> 01:03:16,190 Pentagon that police understand 1304 01:03:19,600 --> 01:03:18,140 gentlemen that Putin could do this 1305 01:03:23,410 --> 01:03:19,610 anytime he wants unless he's on your 1306 01:03:26,830 --> 01:03:23,420 payroll if he's working for you then we 1307 01:03:30,940 --> 01:03:26,840 don't have a problem but if he isn't you 1308 01:03:33,030 --> 01:03:30,950 have a huge problem because if you were 1309 01:03:36,370 --> 01:03:33,040 worried about your public relations 1310 01:03:38,080 --> 01:03:36,380 dilemma should Hillary Clinton become 1311 01:03:41,170 --> 01:03:38,090 president disclose while you're all 1312 01:03:42,910 --> 01:03:41,180 sitting there holding the bag that's 1313 01:03:44,200 --> 01:03:42,920 nothing compared to the problem you're 1314 01:03:47,109 --> 01:03:44,210 going to have if Letterman Putin 1315 01:03:48,250 --> 01:03:47,119 announces the et presence and you have 1316 01:03:51,040 --> 01:03:48,260 to go in front of the American people 1317 01:03:52,870 --> 01:03:51,050 and explain why you've lied to him for 1318 01:03:55,359 --> 01:03:52,880 70 years and Vladimir Putin is the one 1319 01:03:57,700 --> 01:03:55,369 that finally told him the truth and I 1320 01:04:01,420 --> 01:03:57,710 have a feeling that may be the reason 1321 01:04:06,010 --> 01:04:01,430 why they decided that in spite of the 1322 01:04:09,940 --> 01:04:06,020 chaos going on they could just sit too 1323 01:04:11,650 --> 01:04:09,950 long on their projects progress and 1324 01:04:13,510 --> 01:04:11,660 needed to make a move which they did in 1325 01:04:16,540 --> 01:04:13,520 October he loved it I could be wrong but 1326 01:04:19,680 --> 01:04:16,550 that's the wild card well let me add let 1327 01:04:21,940 --> 01:04:19,690 me ask you this what what do you 1328 01:04:24,940 --> 01:04:21,950 conjecture would be in it for cooking 1329 01:04:27,040 --> 01:04:24,950 for him to do that well let's see he 1330 01:04:28,840 --> 01:04:27,050 would immediately achieve one of the 1331 01:04:32,650 --> 01:04:28,850 greatest if not the greatest political 1332 01:04:34,900 --> 01:04:32,660 legacies in all of human history Russia 1333 01:04:37,210 --> 01:04:34,910 would immediately send ascend to the top 1334 01:04:39,220 --> 01:04:37,220 of the the chart in terms of 1335 01:04:42,820 --> 01:04:39,230 geopolitical influence and the center of 1336 01:04:44,260 --> 01:04:42,830 the stage all of the issues he's dealing 1337 01:04:48,520 --> 01:04:44,270 with and some of the negatives that he's 1338 01:04:50,349 --> 01:04:48,530 created would be swept aside the United 1339 01:04:53,380 --> 01:04:50,359 States would be removed drunk reduced 1340 01:04:54,849 --> 01:04:53,390 dramatically in stature he would be 1341 01:04:56,470 --> 01:04:54,859 getting all the glory while the White 1342 01:04:58,150 --> 01:04:56,480 House and the Pentagon would be getting 1343 01:05:02,140 --> 01:04:58,160 dumped on by every reporter in the 1344 01:05:03,670 --> 01:05:02,150 country as to why did you lie why did 1345 01:05:06,010 --> 01:05:03,680 you wait how is it we're learning this 1346 01:05:09,099 --> 01:05:06,020 from Putin it would be a geopolitical 1347 01:05:12,099 --> 01:05:09,109 public relations catastrophe and Putin 1348 01:05:14,410 --> 01:05:12,109 would love every second of it is that 1349 01:05:17,710 --> 01:05:14,420 you're suggesting it would be sort of 1350 01:05:20,410 --> 01:05:17,720 analogous to the Soviet Union getting a 1351 01:05:26,010 --> 01:05:20,420 Sputnik up into orbit before we got a 1352 01:05:33,190 --> 01:05:30,400 okay got it 1353 01:05:36,940 --> 01:05:33,200 I James what there what more do you have 1354 01:05:39,670 --> 01:05:36,950 for mr. Bassett here Oh Steve I heard in 1355 01:05:43,720 --> 01:05:39,680 a recent interview that you actually 1356 01:05:46,060 --> 01:05:43,730 work for dr. John Mac I worked at his 1357 01:05:48,060 --> 01:05:46,070 his organization Pierre 1358 01:05:54,430 --> 01:05:48,070 for about four months as a volunteer 1359 01:05:58,900 --> 01:05:54,440 January to may have 2019 96 yeah what do 1360 01:06:02,650 --> 01:05:58,910 you do under there come in and help I 1361 01:06:03,880 --> 01:06:02,660 had some business background I I said 1362 01:06:07,510 --> 01:06:03,890 maybe I could be helpful in business 1363 01:06:09,040 --> 01:06:07,520 development I was one of the reasons I 1364 01:06:11,230 --> 01:06:09,050 got into this field was because of his 1365 01:06:13,510 --> 01:06:11,240 book abduction I thought this would be a 1366 01:06:14,940 --> 01:06:13,520 very high level entrance and you know if 1367 01:06:16,990 --> 01:06:14,950 you're willing to volunteer you can 1368 01:06:19,360 --> 01:06:17,000 oftentimes get involved in things 1369 01:06:21,730 --> 01:06:19,370 otherwise you couldn't and there was a 1370 01:06:23,440 --> 01:06:21,740 very interesting four months I got to 1371 01:06:27,280 --> 01:06:23,450 know some people I bet some contactees 1372 01:06:28,510 --> 01:06:27,290 but it wasn't my area and I'm not and I 1373 01:06:30,550 --> 01:06:28,520 just have a degree in physics I'm not 1374 01:06:34,120 --> 01:06:30,560 I'm not an academic per se this is a 1375 01:06:35,860 --> 01:06:34,130 fine an academic organization and it 1376 01:06:37,720 --> 01:06:35,870 wasn't a really good fit I helped I did 1377 01:06:39,280 --> 01:06:37,730 what I could but it was only so much I 1378 01:06:41,410 --> 01:06:39,290 could do and I realized I needed to move 1379 01:06:44,740 --> 01:06:41,420 on and that's when I went to Washington 1380 01:06:47,140 --> 01:06:44,750 in July of 1996 and set up paradigm 1381 01:06:52,060 --> 01:06:47,150 research group and decided to engage the 1382 01:06:54,130 --> 01:06:52,070 politics of this I wasn't no say when 1383 01:06:57,040 --> 01:06:54,140 you were when you were in the working 1384 01:07:00,070 --> 01:06:57,050 but for John Mac another peer group did 1385 01:07:05,640 --> 01:07:00,080 you gain any insight into myth et 1386 01:07:14,470 --> 01:07:10,720 mmm good question I got I got stronger 1387 01:07:18,040 --> 01:07:14,480 sense of the importance and validity of 1388 01:07:19,690 --> 01:07:18,050 the contact phenomena which I was pretty 1389 01:07:24,040 --> 01:07:19,700 convinced was was real I'd seen enough 1390 01:07:25,860 --> 01:07:24,050 right enough and I have no bias if you 1391 01:07:28,300 --> 01:07:25,870 don't have a bias on this and you just 1392 01:07:29,950 --> 01:07:28,310 logically analyze things and use a 1393 01:07:33,610 --> 01:07:29,960 scientific perspective it's not hard to 1394 01:07:36,130 --> 01:07:33,620 figure out it's true I got some more of 1395 01:07:39,430 --> 01:07:36,140 that but 1396 01:07:41,230 --> 01:07:39,440 it was mostly the energy guy and it just 1397 01:07:43,930 --> 01:07:41,240 gave me a tremendous amount of energy to 1398 01:07:47,320 --> 01:07:43,940 be part of this in a real way and that 1399 01:07:51,790 --> 01:07:47,330 was helpful but it was while I was there 1400 01:07:55,240 --> 01:07:51,800 and of course when I got there I arrived 1401 01:07:57,610 --> 01:07:55,250 right at the time that the Nova 1402 01:07:58,660 --> 01:07:57,620 documentary came out they had a team 1403 01:08:00,670 --> 01:07:58,670 from Nova decide they're gonna do a 1404 01:08:02,680 --> 01:08:00,680 documentary on this issue and Mac and 1405 01:08:05,350 --> 01:08:02,690 we're featuring Mac and Hopkins so it's 1406 01:08:09,670 --> 01:08:05,360 gonna be a documentary on the on the 1407 01:08:11,290 --> 01:08:09,680 abduction phenomena that that at that 1408 01:08:13,330 --> 01:08:11,300 time I think I'd be fair to say that 1409 01:08:14,620 --> 01:08:13,340 Hopkins and Mac were the most identified 1410 01:08:20,140 --> 01:08:14,630 with that and of course Mac was a 1411 01:08:23,980 --> 01:08:20,150 Harvard trained psychiatrist and what 1412 01:08:29,320 --> 01:08:23,990 happened is halfway through this probe a 1413 01:08:32,230 --> 01:08:29,330 project the higher-ups at Nova let the 1414 01:08:34,240 --> 01:08:32,240 producers know that they just didn't 1415 01:08:38,760 --> 01:08:34,250 want to do a documentary they wanted to 1416 01:08:41,860 --> 01:08:38,770 how would you say do a little debunking 1417 01:08:45,520 --> 01:08:41,870 and so they wanted to they wanted to go 1418 01:08:49,140 --> 01:08:45,530 after Mack and Hopkins and the producer 1419 01:08:52,270 --> 01:08:49,150 quit the person that took her place 1420 01:08:55,960 --> 01:08:52,280 finishes in and and it came out and 1421 01:08:58,060 --> 01:08:55,970 virtually right as I arrived and of 1422 01:09:00,460 --> 01:08:58,070 course it was a hit piece on Mac and in 1423 01:09:02,530 --> 01:09:00,470 Hopkins one of the most disgraceful 1424 01:09:04,990 --> 01:09:02,540 things Melva ever did but believe me 1425 01:09:07,690 --> 01:09:05,000 it's part of an incredibly long line of 1426 01:09:10,750 --> 01:09:07,700 disgraceful things that institutions 1427 01:09:12,460 --> 01:09:10,760 people organizations colleges 1428 01:09:18,460 --> 01:09:12,470 universities are going to have to answer 1429 01:09:21,910 --> 01:09:18,470 for someday and I come to realize I came 1430 01:09:23,560 --> 01:09:21,920 to realize and I'd already sort of 1431 01:09:25,900 --> 01:09:23,570 suspect I already sort of knew this but 1432 01:09:28,120 --> 01:09:25,910 I really rocked it while I was there the 1433 01:09:29,530 --> 01:09:28,130 problem all along has not been a science 1434 01:09:31,650 --> 01:09:29,540 it hasn't been oh there's not enough 1435 01:09:33,910 --> 01:09:31,660 evidence it's not enough science no 1436 01:09:37,300 --> 01:09:33,920 there was plenty of evidence in plenty 1437 01:09:39,160 --> 01:09:37,310 of science the problem was political the 1438 01:09:41,410 --> 01:09:39,170 80 issue was wrapped up in a political 1439 01:09:44,200 --> 01:09:41,420 decision on national security policy 1440 01:09:48,700 --> 01:09:44,210 that was literally preventing the truth 1441 01:09:49,899 --> 01:09:48,710 from being examined engaged studied by 1442 01:09:52,329 --> 01:09:49,909 the human race 1443 01:09:54,640 --> 01:09:52,339 and wrapped up in the Cold War and the 1444 01:09:58,060 --> 01:09:54,650 only way out of this was a political way 1445 01:09:59,200 --> 01:09:58,070 out and that's that was the most 1446 01:10:01,479 --> 01:09:59,210 important thing that happened to me 1447 01:10:03,010 --> 01:10:01,489 there and that's Valley I realized I'm 1448 01:10:04,419 --> 01:10:03,020 gonna go to Washington I can stay there 1449 01:10:05,830 --> 01:10:04,429 I had a place to live and I'm gonna 1450 01:10:08,050 --> 01:10:05,840 engage the political side of it in the 1451 01:10:10,060 --> 01:10:08,060 more way I can I didn't know how but I 1452 01:10:11,680 --> 01:10:10,070 knew the first thing I was gonna do is 1453 01:10:13,990 --> 01:10:11,690 register lobbyists cuz I knew that would 1454 01:10:16,479 --> 01:10:14,000 get some news and it did I was off to 1455 01:10:19,240 --> 01:10:16,489 the races so that's kind of what 1456 01:10:23,050 --> 01:10:19,250 happened in that getting back getting 1457 01:10:25,330 --> 01:10:23,060 back to the contact D issue we see from 1458 01:10:27,729 --> 01:10:25,340 Bigelow in the past some definite 1459 01:10:30,820 --> 01:10:27,739 interest there in that TDS has some 1460 01:10:33,189 --> 01:10:30,830 connections to all that but public yeah 1461 01:10:36,280 --> 01:10:33,199 for us we know that because we're into 1462 01:10:38,140 --> 01:10:36,290 it of course but publicly they're not 1463 01:10:40,840 --> 01:10:38,150 touching that aspect of the phenomenon 1464 01:10:43,000 --> 01:10:40,850 with a ten-foot all I think we all might 1465 01:10:45,189 --> 01:10:43,010 have our guesses as to why that is but I 1466 01:10:47,439 --> 01:10:45,199 could I get your feedback on that sure 1467 01:10:49,689 --> 01:10:47,449 the contact phenomenon is the most 1468 01:10:52,750 --> 01:10:49,699 controversial and difficult aspect of 1469 01:10:54,490 --> 01:10:52,760 the whole thing anti-gravity drive is a 1470 01:10:58,060 --> 01:10:54,500 piece of cake compared to contact 1471 01:11:01,180 --> 01:10:58,070 phenomena it's it's at the core of the 1472 01:11:05,439 --> 01:11:01,190 ETA oh it's one of the core reasons why 1473 01:11:09,010 --> 01:11:05,449 the ETS are here and it's really intense 1474 01:11:12,250 --> 01:11:09,020 and a huge public relations problem for 1475 01:11:14,110 --> 01:11:12,260 the government because that's we all we 1476 01:11:15,729 --> 01:11:14,120 all know and I think they know that we 1477 01:11:18,580 --> 01:11:15,739 know and they know that we know that 1478 01:11:19,780 --> 01:11:18,590 they know that we know is that there's 1479 01:11:21,910 --> 01:11:19,790 not a damn thing they can do about it 1480 01:11:25,870 --> 01:11:21,920 and that's not a thing the government 1481 01:11:27,310 --> 01:11:25,880 likes to tell you but frankly of the 1482 01:11:29,200 --> 01:11:27,320 things that the government does tell us 1483 01:11:34,120 --> 01:11:29,210 I don't consider it that harsh but 1484 01:11:35,890 --> 01:11:34,130 whatever so when I when I initiated my 1485 01:11:37,660 --> 01:11:35,900 political engagements I I stayed away 1486 01:11:40,629 --> 01:11:37,670 from the contact issue for years because 1487 01:11:41,910 --> 01:11:40,639 I knew how hard it was just to talk 1488 01:11:44,800 --> 01:11:41,920 about the et issue 1489 01:11:46,390 --> 01:11:44,810 you bring up contact and you think some 1490 01:11:49,149 --> 01:11:46,400 poor congressman's heads go explode 1491 01:11:50,649 --> 01:11:49,159 right there like on that what was that 1492 01:11:53,470 --> 01:11:50,659 there was that movie where people's 1493 01:11:58,870 --> 01:11:53,480 heads explode dinners scanners exactly 1494 01:12:02,169 --> 01:11:58,880 so good good good good recall so it is 1495 01:12:03,690 --> 01:12:02,179 but eventually I realized I had taught 1496 01:12:06,420 --> 01:12:03,700 eventually had talked to so many car 1497 01:12:08,640 --> 01:12:06,430 Turkey's and was so good was completely 1498 01:12:10,170 --> 01:12:08,650 convinced of its truth I I just could 1499 01:12:12,660 --> 01:12:10,180 not leave them out of the picture I just 1500 01:12:14,310 --> 01:12:12,670 felt that to advocate for this issue and 1501 01:12:16,860 --> 01:12:14,320 try to act like the contact stuff was 1502 01:12:18,690 --> 01:12:16,870 just not there was a disservice to 1503 01:12:20,580 --> 01:12:18,700 everyone I couldn't do it so I've I've 1504 01:12:22,110 --> 01:12:20,590 brought it into by discussion that 1505 01:12:25,700 --> 01:12:22,120 doesn't mean that I shove it in front of 1506 01:12:28,920 --> 01:12:25,710 everybody knows that I get in front of 1507 01:12:31,500 --> 01:12:28,930 but if the subject comes up I go there 1508 01:12:34,050 --> 01:12:31,510 and I do go there from time to time in 1509 01:12:35,790 --> 01:12:34,060 my presentations but my focus is on the 1510 01:12:39,300 --> 01:12:35,800 announcement of the et presence that's 1511 01:12:41,280 --> 01:12:39,310 simple the deal you know the contact 1512 01:12:42,960 --> 01:12:41,290 these are not going to have their issues 1513 01:12:44,520 --> 01:12:42,970 addressed until after disclosure right 1514 01:12:48,480 --> 01:12:44,530 now they're lucky thing get a little 1515 01:12:48,960 --> 01:12:48,490 support from a support group on the 1516 01:12:53,610 --> 01:12:48,970 Internet 1517 01:12:56,600 --> 01:12:53,620 certainly but overall the truth and the 1518 01:12:58,410 --> 01:12:56,610 basis for why they're a contactee 1519 01:13:00,240 --> 01:12:58,420 they're not gonna be able to get to that 1520 01:13:01,860 --> 01:13:00,250 until after disclosure so disclosure is 1521 01:13:05,910 --> 01:13:01,870 the best thing needed to contact these 1522 01:13:07,350 --> 01:13:05,920 and so that's where we focus but yes 1523 01:13:08,750 --> 01:13:07,360 all right the to the stars Academy is 1524 01:13:12,900 --> 01:13:08,760 wise they're not they're not going there 1525 01:13:16,050 --> 01:13:12,910 it's already been out that we think and 1526 01:13:18,450 --> 01:13:16,060 maybe one has been confirmed that at 1527 01:13:20,750 --> 01:13:18,460 least two perhaps two of the people on 1528 01:13:22,860 --> 01:13:20,760 the to the stars team for contactees 1529 01:13:24,720 --> 01:13:22,870 that is not going to surprise me their 1530 01:13:27,150 --> 01:13:24,730 contact ISA route government throughout 1531 01:13:29,090 --> 01:13:27,160 military throughout the White House 1532 01:13:32,420 --> 01:13:29,100 staff throughout the congressional staff 1533 01:13:35,730 --> 01:13:32,430 the percentages and numbers virtually 1534 01:13:37,230 --> 01:13:35,740 assure that obviously that doesn't mean 1535 01:13:40,530 --> 01:13:37,240 you're gonna say anything you're in the 1536 01:13:43,290 --> 01:13:40,540 closet and if you're a it's discussed it 1537 01:13:45,060 --> 01:13:43,300 said Jim semi van and Gary Nolan yeah I 1538 01:13:47,990 --> 01:13:45,070 think it's coming out it might be those 1539 01:13:51,120 --> 01:13:48,000 two they embodied me more than to 1540 01:13:52,980 --> 01:13:51,130 Pentagon you're a you're a bird colonel 1541 01:13:54,300 --> 01:13:52,990 and a contact II you're not gonna be 1542 01:13:57,150 --> 01:13:54,310 chatting about that over there water 1543 01:13:58,950 --> 01:13:57,160 cooler so but the very fact that they 1544 01:14:02,760 --> 01:13:58,960 exist inside government means that there 1545 01:14:04,170 --> 01:14:02,770 is a potential for an inside out process 1546 01:14:06,720 --> 01:14:04,180 and inside out pressure on the truth 1547 01:14:08,070 --> 01:14:06,730 embargo and I believe that's a factor in 1548 01:14:10,200 --> 01:14:08,080 the to the stars Academy team I believe 1549 01:14:11,580 --> 01:14:10,210 that one of the reasons there's 40 or 50 1550 01:14:13,950 --> 01:14:11,590 people in the side then military 1551 01:14:16,230 --> 01:14:13,960 intelligence complex backing up these 10 1552 01:14:17,500 --> 01:14:16,240 that are on the outside is because 1553 01:14:20,970 --> 01:14:17,510 someone per contact the 1554 01:14:23,920 --> 01:14:20,980 and that gives them a highly personal 1555 01:14:27,610 --> 01:14:23,930 reason why they want to be part of 1556 01:14:29,950 --> 01:14:27,620 solution not the problem and so I guess 1557 01:14:32,770 --> 01:14:29,960 you could say the truth will out 1558 01:14:34,960 --> 01:14:32,780 the truth is like the grass it will come 1559 01:14:37,330 --> 01:14:34,970 right up through a completely sea minute 1560 01:14:40,210 --> 01:14:37,340 sidewalk given enough time it always 1561 01:14:42,100 --> 01:14:40,220 comes out eventually and it's only about 1562 01:14:43,480 --> 01:14:42,110 how it's mostly about how much damage 1563 01:14:49,540 --> 01:14:43,490 will be done while the truth is 1564 01:14:51,640 --> 01:14:49,550 suppressed so Steve we got you know 1565 01:14:53,380 --> 01:14:51,650 researchers have said that right now 1566 01:14:55,810 --> 01:14:53,390 we're we're going through what Robert 1567 01:14:57,670 --> 01:14:55,820 Bigelow has called confirmation not 1568 01:14:58,900 --> 01:14:57,680 necessarily to disclosure that we're 1569 01:15:01,870 --> 01:14:58,910 gonna go through this period of 1570 01:15:04,330 --> 01:15:01,880 confirmation hmm and and that disclosure 1571 01:15:07,530 --> 01:15:04,340 is gonna follow now do you think what 1572 01:15:10,330 --> 01:15:07,540 what to the Stars Academy is doing is is 1573 01:15:13,060 --> 01:15:10,340 like a soft disclosure or do you think 1574 01:15:17,740 --> 01:15:13,070 they're taking a step beyond that it's 1575 01:15:20,350 --> 01:15:17,750 all soft disclosure but some is harder 1576 01:15:22,030 --> 01:15:20,360 some some softs closures harder than 1577 01:15:24,370 --> 01:15:22,040 others also but it's all part of the 1578 01:15:27,750 --> 01:15:24,380 soft disclosure small deep process but 1579 01:15:32,140 --> 01:15:27,760 clearly it's a very powerful nature 1580 01:15:34,030 --> 01:15:32,150 there are two comments that have come 1581 01:15:38,110 --> 01:15:34,040 from this team that are extremely 1582 01:15:40,240 --> 01:15:38,120 important I believe and I don't I don't 1583 01:15:43,450 --> 01:15:40,250 I'm I think Chris Christopher Mellon 1584 01:15:45,820 --> 01:15:43,460 mate said this I don't but I haven't 1585 01:15:47,910 --> 01:15:45,830 pinpointed when where but I think he 1586 01:15:50,260 --> 01:15:47,920 said it because I just remember it 1587 01:15:51,760 --> 01:15:50,270 passing in front of me however Louis 1588 01:15:55,180 --> 01:15:51,770 Elizondo was also said and I know 1589 01:15:57,580 --> 01:15:55,190 exactly where he said he was supposed to 1590 01:16:01,300 --> 01:15:57,590 speak at the International UFO Congress 1591 01:16:04,660 --> 01:16:01,310 conference in Fountain Hills back in 1592 01:16:08,890 --> 01:16:04,670 February however the team made a 1593 01:16:10,660 --> 01:16:08,900 decision that they were they were 1594 01:16:13,630 --> 01:16:10,670 starting to interact with the et 1595 01:16:16,450 --> 01:16:13,640 community which is I which I give them 1596 01:16:18,690 --> 01:16:16,460 credit for but they discovered the et 1597 01:16:23,080 --> 01:16:18,700 community is a very conflicted 1598 01:16:25,960 --> 01:16:23,090 frustrated bunch of people and dealing 1599 01:16:30,110 --> 01:16:25,970 with them was was going to be awkward 1600 01:16:36,220 --> 01:16:30,120 and potentially a threat to their 1601 01:16:40,490 --> 01:16:36,230 process and so they backed off and 1602 01:16:43,130 --> 01:16:40,500 pretty much have Reis Trat Ajay z'd 1603 01:16:46,070 --> 01:16:43,140 I think they're I think they're going to 1604 01:16:49,370 --> 01:16:46,080 you're they're gonna find a way to more 1605 01:16:52,010 --> 01:16:49,380 to interact with our world in a more 1606 01:16:55,490 --> 01:16:52,020 defined regulated way so don't be 1607 01:16:56,690 --> 01:16:55,500 surprised to learn about that but this 1608 01:16:58,730 --> 01:16:56,700 happened right about the time he'd 1609 01:17:01,070 --> 01:16:58,740 already committed to speak there which 1610 01:17:03,380 --> 01:17:01,080 means he'd have been open to questions 1611 01:17:05,450 --> 01:17:03,390 from the floor anything people wanted to 1612 01:17:06,830 --> 01:17:05,460 ask and they they realized no there's 1613 01:17:09,320 --> 01:17:06,840 just a lot of questions we don't want to 1614 01:17:10,760 --> 01:17:09,330 answer and can't answer and having to 1615 01:17:12,950 --> 01:17:10,770 give no comment it's just gonna stir 1616 01:17:15,380 --> 01:17:12,960 people up and so what they did was he 1617 01:17:20,450 --> 01:17:15,390 submitted a video which he responded to 1618 01:17:22,280 --> 01:17:20,460 pre submitted questions okay so that 1619 01:17:24,440 --> 01:17:22,290 video is up you can find it on my 1620 01:17:26,570 --> 01:17:24,450 website you can find it on youtube and 1621 01:17:29,180 --> 01:17:26,580 this is the it's about a 30-minute 1622 01:17:32,270 --> 01:17:29,190 interview or 30 minute day maybe 37 1623 01:17:34,700 --> 01:17:32,280 minutes and in this interview he says 1624 01:17:36,380 --> 01:17:34,710 something extremely important and again 1625 01:17:38,390 --> 01:17:36,390 Christopher Mellon I believe he said the 1626 01:17:41,270 --> 01:17:38,400 same thing and I will try to get the 1627 01:17:43,450 --> 01:17:41,280 exact context for that and I'm gonna 1628 01:17:49,280 --> 01:17:43,460 paraphrase it closely 1629 01:17:52,850 --> 01:17:49,290 the question is Louis are you concerned 1630 01:17:57,290 --> 01:17:52,860 that the actions that you were that the 1631 01:18:00,650 --> 01:17:57,300 to the Stars team is taking could result 1632 01:18:05,840 --> 01:18:00,660 in disclosure happening soon or right 1633 01:18:10,190 --> 01:18:05,850 away any time and his answer was that 1634 01:18:12,110 --> 01:18:10,200 would be fine with me now you have to 1635 01:18:15,830 --> 01:18:12,120 think about that answer for a second to 1636 01:18:22,130 --> 01:18:15,840 realize how important it is what he's 1637 01:18:25,690 --> 01:18:22,140 saying is that we want disclosure and we 1638 01:18:30,140 --> 01:18:25,700 want it now pretty much just like I do 1639 01:18:32,200 --> 01:18:30,150 probably you do but we we have to work 1640 01:18:37,190 --> 01:18:32,210 this through within certain parameters 1641 01:18:40,100 --> 01:18:37,200 we have no choice and so we're gonna do 1642 01:18:42,530 --> 01:18:40,110 what we can but if if if this triggers 1643 01:18:43,620 --> 01:18:42,540 and again there's mmm they're not the 1644 01:18:46,920 --> 01:18:43,630 only game in town 1645 01:18:49,620 --> 01:18:46,930 if this triggers disclosure that's fine 1646 01:18:53,310 --> 01:18:49,630 with us and so what that says is they 1647 01:18:55,620 --> 01:18:53,320 that their fundamental rate their their 1648 01:18:57,630 --> 01:18:55,630 fundamental goal here is the formal 1649 01:19:00,210 --> 01:18:57,640 announcement by heads of state of the et 1650 01:19:02,550 --> 01:19:00,220 presence and the end of the truth 1651 01:19:04,110 --> 01:19:02,560 embargo so that people could stuff so 1652 01:19:07,800 --> 01:19:04,120 they can stop spending so much time 1653 01:19:09,960 --> 01:19:07,810 trying to hide the you know the ball 1654 01:19:11,760 --> 01:19:09,970 under the you know play hide to seek 1655 01:19:14,580 --> 01:19:11,770 with American people and lie and also 1656 01:19:16,080 --> 01:19:14,590 just be up comfortable and again two of 1657 01:19:18,330 --> 01:19:16,090 them now they've made that statement it 1658 01:19:19,680 --> 01:19:18,340 may be some more than have done that so 1659 01:19:25,070 --> 01:19:19,690 that that's important and that that 1660 01:19:28,310 --> 01:19:25,080 tells a lot yeah now with um Tom DeLonge 1661 01:19:31,380 --> 01:19:28,320 you know getting to talking about ETS 1662 01:19:33,780 --> 01:19:31,390 when when you hear him talk on different 1663 01:19:34,620 --> 01:19:33,790 you know when he was on coast coast or 1664 01:19:37,740 --> 01:19:34,630 fade to black 1665 01:19:39,990 --> 01:19:37,750 he doesn't when when somebody brings up 1666 01:19:42,570 --> 01:19:40,000 et he doesn't necessarily go there he'll 1667 01:19:44,220 --> 01:19:42,580 he alludes that it that it could be 1668 01:19:45,720 --> 01:19:44,230 something else and they're they're 1669 01:19:49,890 --> 01:19:45,730 trying to find a way to explain it to 1670 01:19:52,440 --> 01:19:49,900 the public so but he you know also again 1671 01:19:53,520 --> 01:19:52,450 he'll go on and it doesn't really sound 1672 01:19:56,490 --> 01:19:53,530 like when he's talking that he's 1673 01:19:59,750 --> 01:19:56,500 representing to the Stars Academy other 1674 01:20:02,280 --> 01:19:59,760 than what his his media function is I 1675 01:20:06,090 --> 01:20:02,290 think you're I wouldn't I wouldn't be 1676 01:20:09,720 --> 01:20:06,100 assuming anything there tom has a public 1677 01:20:13,440 --> 01:20:09,730 presence completely independent of to 1678 01:20:15,000 --> 01:20:13,450 the store he still is a musician in fact 1679 01:20:16,590 --> 01:20:15,010 it was you know there's some articles 1680 01:20:18,330 --> 01:20:16,600 just came out there Mac making music 1681 01:20:20,640 --> 01:20:18,340 again because again I think things are 1682 01:20:23,600 --> 01:20:20,650 kind of odd old for the to the stars 1683 01:20:27,300 --> 01:20:23,610 team but he's gonna be asked about this 1684 01:20:28,080 --> 01:20:27,310 he's not again he's not a thirty year 1685 01:20:33,390 --> 01:20:28,090 career 1686 01:20:34,020 --> 01:20:33,400 CIA guy he's not a PhD in in rocket 1687 01:20:37,800 --> 01:20:34,030 physics 1688 01:20:39,360 --> 01:20:37,810 he's a autodidact musician and so he 1689 01:20:44,760 --> 01:20:39,370 talks about this stuff he cut it gets 1690 01:20:48,210 --> 01:20:44,770 all over the map is he he is still I 1691 01:20:52,710 --> 01:20:48,220 consider the spokes person for the 1692 01:20:55,710 --> 01:20:52,720 overall project I think Louis Elizondo 1693 01:20:57,109 --> 01:20:55,720 is the interface he's a kind of a 1694 01:20:59,179 --> 01:20:57,119 workingman's 1695 01:21:01,009 --> 01:20:59,189 can Manny he's kind of a good interface 1696 01:21:04,639 --> 01:21:01,019 with general public I think melon is the 1697 01:21:08,109 --> 01:21:04,649 intellectual interface but I don't think 1698 01:21:18,529 --> 01:21:08,119 that I think but ultimately I mean to be 1699 01:21:21,139 --> 01:21:18,539 to be realistic these are this is a you 1700 01:21:23,299 --> 01:21:21,149 know the words Tom did not drag the 1701 01:21:27,770 --> 01:21:23,309 Pentagon and the military intelligence 1702 01:21:31,100 --> 01:21:27,780 complex into this project he didn't pick 1703 01:21:34,600 --> 01:21:31,110 them they picked him but he got picked 1704 01:21:38,469 --> 01:21:34,610 because he he was in front of them 1705 01:21:42,859 --> 01:21:38,479 engaging he was there and there was a 1706 01:21:45,919 --> 01:21:42,869 use there was a symbiosis there they 1707 01:21:49,689 --> 01:21:45,929 could work with ultimately though he's 1708 01:21:53,509 --> 01:21:49,699 the it is the the team it's it's the 1709 01:21:55,669 --> 01:21:53,519 others that may emerge that are going to 1710 01:21:58,879 --> 01:21:55,679 be formulating the strategies and 1711 01:22:03,319 --> 01:21:58,889 projects here and Tom's overall 1712 01:22:05,689 --> 01:22:03,329 influence will become probably since but 1713 01:22:07,489 --> 01:22:05,699 get in terms of the media stuff he's the 1714 01:22:08,810 --> 01:22:07,499 one that has these great gifts getting 1715 01:22:10,580 --> 01:22:08,820 people to write books with him and 1716 01:22:11,899 --> 01:22:10,590 knocking him out he may work on 1717 01:22:14,719 --> 01:22:11,909 documentaries I mean he's gonna be able 1718 01:22:17,569 --> 01:22:14,729 to do that stuff but the intellectual 1719 01:22:19,909 --> 01:22:17,579 component and the high-end strategic 1720 01:22:22,100 --> 01:22:19,919 component of what we'll call the small D 1721 01:22:24,919 --> 01:22:22,110 disclosure going on that is going to be 1722 01:22:31,299 --> 01:22:24,929 directed by the the people in the team 1723 01:22:38,299 --> 01:22:35,239 you know see some people commented on a 1724 01:22:40,159 --> 01:22:38,309 on Tom getting back into the music and 1725 01:22:42,529 --> 01:22:40,169 they're like oh well maybe to the stars 1726 01:22:44,509 --> 01:22:42,539 isn't what it was hype up to be in he's 1727 01:22:46,969 --> 01:22:44,519 kind of you know taking a step back but 1728 01:22:48,709 --> 01:22:46,979 when you look at it you know like you 1729 01:22:52,069 --> 01:22:48,719 said tom is running the media function 1730 01:22:55,219 --> 01:22:52,079 but the brains and the operation behind 1731 01:22:57,080 --> 01:22:55,229 are clearly not organized by him which 1732 01:23:00,199 --> 01:22:57,090 which is like everybody is there for 1733 01:23:02,509 --> 01:23:00,209 their role yeah I mean remember as some 1734 01:23:04,069 --> 01:23:02,519 avance said there's 40 maybe more people 1735 01:23:08,000 --> 01:23:04,079 inside the Pentagon that are sort of 1736 01:23:10,280 --> 01:23:08,010 supporting this and and that group came 1737 01:23:13,670 --> 01:23:10,290 together and decided who 1738 01:23:15,650 --> 01:23:13,680 amongst them was going to who was going 1739 01:23:17,330 --> 01:23:15,660 to be on the on the public team who's 1740 01:23:19,130 --> 01:23:17,340 going to be the public face of this and 1741 01:23:21,140 --> 01:23:19,140 I think that the people that were going 1742 01:23:22,370 --> 01:23:21,150 to be the public face that were 1743 01:23:23,480 --> 01:23:22,380 announced in October were not 1744 01:23:26,930 --> 01:23:23,490 necessarily the same they were going to 1745 01:23:31,880 --> 01:23:26,940 be announced in 2016 after Hillary won 1746 01:23:37,940 --> 01:23:31,890 and I thought so 1747 01:23:40,250 --> 01:23:37,950 but I people I look I mantas for 22 1748 01:23:42,500 --> 01:23:40,260 years nobody wants to see this over more 1749 01:23:49,010 --> 01:23:42,510 than I but people need to have patience 1750 01:23:54,340 --> 01:23:49,020 here and again being a learning framed 1751 01:23:59,690 --> 01:23:54,350 mode learn gather information understand 1752 01:24:02,180 --> 01:23:59,700 and and not jump or jump on board every 1753 01:24:04,310 --> 01:24:02,190 critic that comes along on this listen 1754 01:24:07,220 --> 01:24:04,320 to their arguments and so forth but I 1755 01:24:10,160 --> 01:24:07,230 would just immediately attach themselves 1756 01:24:14,050 --> 01:24:10,170 to this theory or that theory because no 1757 01:24:18,110 --> 01:24:14,060 one knows enough about this project 1758 01:24:20,410 --> 01:24:18,120 we're dealing with an iceberg here the 1759 01:24:22,820 --> 01:24:20,420 majority of it is still underwater 1760 01:24:27,590 --> 01:24:22,830 that's my advice people who'll take it 1761 01:24:30,590 --> 01:24:27,600 or they will take it we're trying to do 1762 01:24:32,180 --> 01:24:30,600 yeah mm-hmm yeah and I'm glad to have 1763 01:24:34,400 --> 01:24:32,190 the opportunity and this is one of my 1764 01:24:36,050 --> 01:24:34,410 key roles right now is is trying to put 1765 01:24:39,230 --> 01:24:36,060 proper perspective on these developments 1766 01:24:41,270 --> 01:24:39,240 we're very difficult to fall well Steve 1767 01:24:42,470 --> 01:24:41,280 we certainly have enjoyed having you I 1768 01:24:45,770 --> 01:24:42,480 do you have anything else for Steve 1769 01:24:49,070 --> 01:24:45,780 there there a gym yeah just got one more 1770 01:24:50,960 --> 01:24:49,080 thing what about I know you were talking 1771 01:24:52,070 --> 01:24:50,970 about Congress and it's being a mess and 1772 01:24:55,430 --> 01:24:52,080 with the current administration and 1773 01:25:00,040 --> 01:24:55,440 everything like that in the near future 1774 01:25:02,300 --> 01:25:00,050 you know possibly with further 1775 01:25:03,650 --> 01:25:02,310 developments from to the stars academy 1776 01:25:05,930 --> 01:25:03,660 of the department defense in whatever 1777 01:25:08,090 --> 01:25:05,940 positions they take in whatever releases 1778 01:25:12,950 --> 01:25:08,100 may happen you think we'll we'll see 1779 01:25:14,660 --> 01:25:12,960 another kind of tweet storm or another 1780 01:25:15,800 --> 01:25:14,670 National Press Club conference or 1781 01:25:21,650 --> 01:25:15,810 anything like that given the right 1782 01:25:23,030 --> 01:25:21,660 momentum or time well who knows I can't 1783 01:25:24,229 --> 01:25:23,040 I can't speak for other people I mean 1784 01:25:25,700 --> 01:25:24,239 certainly 1785 01:25:27,859 --> 01:25:25,710 the money's there people want to do it 1786 01:25:29,810 --> 01:25:27,869 they'll do it I don't have the funds 1787 01:25:33,379 --> 01:25:29,820 right now but I can tell you what I'm 1788 01:25:34,759 --> 01:25:33,389 gonna do and by the other way too but 1789 01:25:37,399 --> 01:25:34,769 yeah and then before I do that let me 1790 01:25:42,229 --> 01:25:37,409 just mention think of the truth embargo 1791 01:25:46,959 --> 01:25:42,239 as a balloon filled with all the 1792 01:25:51,009 --> 01:25:46,969 information you want and you've got a 1793 01:25:55,580 --> 01:25:51,019 it's not a needle you got a pencil and 1794 01:25:58,069 --> 01:25:55,590 you're pushing on that balloon all that 1795 01:26:01,279 --> 01:25:58,079 soft disclosure that's coming out it's 1796 01:26:04,879 --> 01:26:01,289 just increasing the pressure on that 1797 01:26:06,709 --> 01:26:04,889 balloon and that pencil you don't know 1798 01:26:08,899 --> 01:26:06,719 exactly when it's gonna pop but you know 1799 01:26:10,729 --> 01:26:08,909 that if there's a pressure point when 1800 01:26:13,910 --> 01:26:10,739 you reach it that balloons gonna pop and 1801 01:26:15,529 --> 01:26:13,920 that's what's going on the pressure on 1802 01:26:18,439 --> 01:26:15,539 the balloon is increasing the peso 1803 01:26:20,959 --> 01:26:18,449 pencil coin is bearing in on that rubber 1804 01:26:22,700 --> 01:26:20,969 and at some point it's gonna pop it and 1805 01:26:24,950 --> 01:26:22,710 when it pops it pops immediately it's 1806 01:26:26,419 --> 01:26:24,960 boom that's disclosure it'll happen like 1807 01:26:28,040 --> 01:26:26,429 that that's the way to think about it 1808 01:26:30,319 --> 01:26:28,050 now let me tell you what's going on in 1809 01:26:32,629 --> 01:26:30,329 my world and what's happening here 1810 01:26:34,100 --> 01:26:32,639 I mean I'm back in the game I was sort 1811 01:26:36,649 --> 01:26:34,110 of out of the country for seven months 1812 01:26:38,419 --> 01:26:36,659 the to the Stars Academy was announced 1813 01:26:39,770 --> 01:26:38,429 while I was in October all my colleagues 1814 01:26:43,370 --> 01:26:39,780 were getting on TV all over the place 1815 01:26:45,919 --> 01:26:43,380 and I went I was nowhere but I'm back 1816 01:26:49,489 --> 01:26:45,929 alright I'm scheduled for 16 CompTIA's 1817 01:26:53,000 --> 01:26:49,499 already done six or five Wow I got 11 1818 01:26:54,680 --> 01:26:53,010 more to go so first and foremost while I 1819 01:26:56,839 --> 01:26:54,690 was in London I made the decision it was 1820 01:26:59,959 --> 01:26:56,849 time to do a documentary that I need 1821 01:27:01,729 --> 01:26:59,969 that needed to be done and the 1822 01:27:04,279 --> 01:27:01,739 documentary would be the first political 1823 01:27:05,720 --> 01:27:04,289 doc ever really done on this issue and 1824 01:27:08,270 --> 01:27:05,730 it would cover the whole political 1825 01:27:12,140 --> 01:27:08,280 history from 93 through the election of 1826 01:27:12,589 --> 01:27:12,150 2016 including an epilogue about to the 1827 01:27:15,680 --> 01:27:12,599 stars 1828 01:27:17,720 --> 01:27:15,690 and its political consequences the doc 1829 01:27:21,049 --> 01:27:17,730 is called disclosure and a team has been 1830 01:27:21,739 --> 01:27:21,059 put together there is a website and it's 1831 01:27:25,069 --> 01:27:21,749 disclosure 1832 01:27:26,899 --> 01:27:25,079 dot film there is a teaser up and it's 1833 01:27:31,640 --> 01:27:26,909 just a sauna it's just a teaser so no 1834 01:27:33,259 --> 01:27:31,650 it's not a trailer and we're raising a 1835 01:27:37,189 --> 01:27:33,269 little raising some money ultimately we 1836 01:27:44,549 --> 01:27:43,049 however we're while we're good I'll be 1837 01:27:46,229 --> 01:27:44,559 mentioned in this documentary and I've 1838 01:27:48,719 --> 01:27:46,239 got links up on my site and of course 1839 01:27:51,029 --> 01:27:48,729 that the site is up we're sort of laying 1840 01:27:52,949 --> 01:27:51,039 back in the weeds now we're not going to 1841 01:27:55,020 --> 01:27:52,959 be bugging people for money really 1842 01:27:57,689 --> 01:27:55,030 though if a big donor turns up I assure 1843 01:27:58,979 --> 01:27:57,699 you we if we get a hundred thousand we 1844 01:28:01,559 --> 01:27:58,989 will definitely go into production 1845 01:28:03,839 --> 01:28:01,569 whenever that is but because of the 1846 01:28:05,849 --> 01:28:03,849 political chaos trying to get attention 1847 01:28:07,619 --> 01:28:05,859 of people and meeting everything else is 1848 01:28:10,649 --> 01:28:07,629 like running into a running into a 1849 01:28:13,379 --> 01:28:10,659 hundred mile an hour wind and you just 1850 01:28:18,089 --> 01:28:13,389 expend your energy and so we're gonna 1851 01:28:20,939 --> 01:28:18,099 sort of a lie low and re-intensify this 1852 01:28:24,509 --> 01:28:20,949 documentaries reality to the public in 1853 01:28:26,399 --> 01:28:24,519 the media after the midterm election but 1854 01:28:29,250 --> 01:28:26,409 it's up it's out there and we're 1855 01:28:33,109 --> 01:28:29,260 welcoming funding disclosure dot film 1856 01:28:35,819 --> 01:28:33,119 and that's the major project that PRG 1857 01:28:38,909 --> 01:28:35,829 hopes to do which could have significant 1858 01:28:40,409 --> 01:28:38,919 impact on the disclosure process because 1859 01:28:42,089 --> 01:28:40,419 we we're gonna do everything we can to 1860 01:28:47,099 --> 01:28:42,099 get it mainstream theaters a la 1861 01:28:48,929 --> 01:28:47,109 Fahrenheit 9/11 so there's that the new 1862

01:29:21,979 --> 01:29:16,719 internet arrived to do a blog I just 1874 01:29:28,799 --> 01:29:21,989 wasn't in a hurry and then there's more 1875 01:29:31,409 --> 01:29:28,809 in five days the the

01:34:06,750 so they haven't called in a while but 1972 01:34:13,490 --> 01:34:08,510 I'm hoping that that'll change here soon 1973 01:34:16,850 --> 01:34:13,500 so these shows but these shows do 1974 01:34:19,400 --> 01:34:16,860 something that the the old paradigm did 1975 01:34:22,010 --> 01:34:19,410 you you would do an interview maybe on 1976 01:34:25,430 --> 01:34:22,020 NBC News and it would go into the 1977 01:34:28,250 --> 01:34:25,440 interview news vault that was it there's 1978 01:34:29,840 --> 01:34:28,260 no internet and then if somebody wanted 1979 01:34:32,750 --> 01:34:29,850 it they could go pay them thousands of 1980 01:34:37,070 --> 01:34:32,760 dollars and that's how you might get 1981 01:34:39,230 --> 01:34:37,080 access to that interview now you do an 1982 01:34:41,810 --> 01:34:39,240 interview on internet radio and then it 1983 01:34:44,000 --> 01:34:41,820 gets archived on the website and it 1984 01:34:46,100 --> 01:34:44,010 stays there indefinitely and not only 1985 01:34:48,320 --> 01:34:46,110 that but it becomes a link in the Google 1986 01:34:50,300 --> 01:34:48,330 search BOTS and so now that these 1987 01:34:51,800 --> 01:34:50,310 interviews just spread then they turn 1988 01:34:56,750 --> 01:34:51,810 then they start turning up on YouTube 1989 01:34:58,820 --> 01:34:56,760 and so essentially you don't eighty 1990 01:35:01,720 --> 01:34:58,830 issue is not the only instance of this 1991 01:35:04,550 --> 01:35:01,730 of course but the result is is that the 1992 01:35:06,740 --> 01:35:04,560 extra-terrestrial issue and particularly 1993 01:35:12,080 --> 01:35:06,750 the disclosure and truth embargo issues 1994 01:35:14,480 --> 01:35:12,090 are all over the internet and you guys 1995 01:35:17,210 --> 01:35:14,490 are the reason for that you and all your 1996 01:35:20,870 --> 01:35:17,220 your cohorts who have said hey I'm gonna 1997 01:35:23,450 --> 01:35:20,880 I'm gonna have a radio program and so 1998 01:35:24,710 --> 01:35:23,460 believe me I appreciate it and one day I 1999 01:35:26,330 --> 01:35:24,720 know you're all gonna be acknowledged 2000 01:35:28,850 --> 01:35:26,340 for the contribution you made to what 2001 01:35:30,650 --> 01:35:28,860 will be the most profound event in the 2002 01:35:32,480 --> 01:35:30,660 history so that's what we're working 2003 01:35:36,140 --> 01:35:32,490 towards and if we didn't like it we 2004 01:35:37,790 --> 01:35:36,150 wouldn't do it you know yeah because you 2005 01:35:42,800 --> 01:35:37,800 gotta like it man 2006 01:35:43,580 --> 01:35:42,810 you got anybody who's had a sighting or 2007 01:35:46,760 --> 01:35:43,590 something like that 2008 01:35:48,320 --> 01:35:46,770 you're on absolutely absolutely and 2009 01:35:51,470 --> 01:35:48,330 looking forward to seeing you on ancient 2010 01:35:53,960 --> 01:35:51,480 aliens that is a show I think is stood 2011 01:35:55,640 --> 01:35:53,970 the test of time basically because they 2012 01:35:57,710 --> 01:35:55,650 get something that a lot of the other 2013 01:36:01,310 --> 01:35:57,720 shows don't that stay very dark with 2014 01:36:04,220 --> 01:36:01,320 this very conspiratorial and those guys 2015 01:36:07,130 --> 01:36:04,230 have the enthusiasm for the subject that 2016 01:36:09,620 --> 01:36:07,140 comes through and their rings through 2017 01:36:12,050 --> 01:36:09,630 like a bell and I think that is the 2018 01:36:15,950 --> 01:36:12,060 secret to their success they're into it 2019 01:36:18,860 --> 01:36:15,960 they're enthusiastic about it and I wish 2020 01:36:20,990 --> 01:36:18,870 more shows would would steal that from 2021 01:36:23,060 --> 01:36:21,000 them frankly well in the and the aliens 2022 01:36:26,070 --> 01:36:23,070 are ancient as opposed to the ones 2023 01:36:28,050 --> 01:36:26,080 coming into your bedroom on Friday night 2024 01:36:31,350 --> 01:36:28,060 you know I have no problem with that so 2025 01:36:34,050 --> 01:36:31,360 it is it has introduced the subject 2026 01:36:36,510 --> 01:36:34,060 I don't want old millions of people in a 2027 01:36:38,760 --> 01:36:36,520 comfortable way entertaining interesting 2028 01:36:42,030 --> 01:36:38,770 it has explored these ancient 2029 01:36:44,130 --> 01:36:42,040 connections which I think are real you 2030 01:36:45,560 --> 01:36:44,140 know it's all are all of the assertions 2031 01:36:48,420 --> 01:36:45,570 that they're making on the show gonna 2032 01:36:51,660 --> 01:36:48,430 prove true now of course not most of 2033 01:36:54,450 --> 01:36:51,670 them were some of them will but the show 2034 01:36:57,060 --> 01:36:54,460 is I think you know been a bit of huge 2035 01:36:58,770 --> 01:36:57,070 asset and I'm just pleased to finally 2036 01:37:03,330 --> 01:36:58,780 get on it after twelve years you know I 2037 01:37:04,200 --> 01:37:03,340 mean I figure yeah patience and if 2038 01:37:06,270 --> 01:37:04,210 they're if they're gonna start 2039 01:37:09,360 --> 01:37:06,280 emphasizing disclosure all the better I 2040 01:37:12,420 --> 01:37:09,370 mean believe me there are plenty of 2041 01:37:15,480 --> 01:37:12,430 people in Oregon is a look in the space 2042 01:37:19,020 --> 01:37:15,490 of just ten days back in January I got I 2043 01:37:21,690 --> 01:37:19,030 got calls from three showrunners two two 2044 01:37:24,690 --> 01:37:21,700 related to the History Channel saying 2045 01:37:27,380 --> 01:37:24,700 you know we're doing a show and it's 2046 01:37:29,670 --> 01:37:27,390 gonna have an emphasis on disclosure 2047 01:37:30,360 --> 01:37:29,680 well and we're wondering if you want to 2048 01:37:32,040 --> 01:37:30,370 be part of it 2049 01:37:33,810 --> 01:37:32,050 let me tell you I wasn't getting calls 2050 01:37:35,460 --> 01:37:33,820 like that before and so you've got 2051 01:37:38,100 --> 01:37:35,470 you've got and you've got you've got a 2052 01:37:40,050 --> 01:37:38,110 series soul too History Channel by Bob 2053 01:37:42,930 --> 01:37:40,060 Zemeckis major player in Hollywood 2054 01:37:45,840 --> 01:37:42,940 a-lister on Blue Book 2055 01:37:48,300 --> 01:37:45,850 look their producers and directors 2056

want to get 2059 01:37:57,120 --> 01:37:56,020 on the bandwagon excitement is raising 2060 01:38:00,120 --> 01:37:57,130 and if it wasn't for the political 2061 01:38:02,790 --> 01:38:00,130 Maelstrom we're in I'm telling you this 2062 01:38:05,130 --> 01:38:02,800 issue would be really on fire but 2063 01:38:07,500 --> 01:38:05,140 nevertheless it's still intensifying 2064 01:38:08,490 --> 01:38:07,510 very rapidly people want to get involved 2065 01:38:12,390 --> 01:38:08,500 they want to be part of it 2066 01:38:15,090 --> 01:38:12,400 fantastic so that's why the alien Cohn 2067
