00:02:40,710 --> 00:02:38,720 until her death this past week and uh 72 00:02:41,430 --> 00:02:40,720 she kind of evolved away from the field 73 00:02:43,750 --> 00:02:41,440 but 74 00:02:45,430 --> 00:02:43,760 uh she was uh she was a big deal she was 75 00:02:47,030 --> 00:02:45,440 an important person a person who came 76 00:02:48,869 --> 00:02:47,040 from a journalism background getting 77 00:02:51,670 --> 00:02:48,879 very involved in this field 78 00:02:52,309 --> 00:02:51,680 and uh yeah even though though like i 79 00:02:54,790 --> 00:02:52,319 say 80 00:02:56,470 --> 00:02:54,800 uh she had sort of evolved away from the 81 00:02:58,229 --> 00:02:56,480 field over the years 82 00:03:00,149 --> 00:02:58,239 she will be missed uh people who 83 00:03:03,110 --> 00:03:00,159 remember her and dealt with her 84 00:03:03,589 --> 00:03:03,120 whether it was ufos or anything else 85 00:03:06,149 --> 00:03:03,599 will 86 00:03:07,350 --> 00:03:06,159 remember her as a the finest type of 87 00:03:08,869 --> 00:03:07,360 person to steve 88 00:03:12,070 --> 00:03:08,879 i'm sure you have some thoughts on 89 00:03:15,990 --> 00:03:14,550 uh frank as you as you may know i i have 90 00:03:19,830 --> 00:03:16,000 a lot of 91 00:03:21,910 --> 00:03:19,840 regard for journalism i 92 00:03:23,589 --> 00:03:21,920 i i know i understand that journalism 93 00:03:25,030 --> 00:03:23,599 under its attac is under attack these 94 00:03:28,710 --> 00:03:25,040 days 95 00:03:32,149 --> 00:03:28,720 but uh the fact is is that uh 96 00:03:34,149 --> 00:03:32,159 the the press media journalists are 97 00:03:37,430 --> 00:03:34,159 absolutely key to 98 00:03:40,470 --> 00:03:37,440 the sustainability of our 99 00:03:41,509 --> 00:03:40,480 government of our democratic society and 100 00:03:45,350 --> 00:03:41,519 when the journalists 101 00:03:49,110 --> 00:03:45,360 serve us well good things come from that 102 00:03:51,589 --> 00:03:49,120 uh so uh and i also know 103 00:03:53,750 --> 00:03:51,599 that oftentimes you have to be pretty 104 00:03:55,830 --> 00:03:53,760 courageous to be a journalist 105 00:03:57,350 --> 00:03:55,840 to say the least you don't have to be in 106 00:04:00,710 --> 00:03:57,360 a war zone 107 00:04:03,910 --> 00:04:00,720 to need to be courageous 108 00:04:07,990 --> 00:04:03,920 so and jelly was like wonderful 109 00:04:12,309 --> 00:04:08,000 she she was just a uh 110 00:04:15,190 --> 00:04:12,319 a lady in stevensville texas 111 00:04:17,270 --> 00:04:15,200 uh not a huge place out of the way uh 112 00:04:20,310 --> 00:04:17,280 working for the paper 113 00:04:23,670 --> 00:04:20,320 got a husband randall decent life and 114 00:04:26,230 --> 00:04:23,680 it's all all fine and then the e.t 115 00:04:28,070 --> 00:04:26,240 issue like it often happens landed on 116 00:04:29,590 --> 00:04:28,080 her door literally 117 00:04:32,150 --> 00:04:29,600 so you had this extraordinary 118 00:04:35,749 --> 00:04:32,160 stephensville sighting 119 00:04:39,270 --> 00:04:35,759 and she covered it big story 120 00:04:41,030 --> 00:04:39,280 she jumped in she covered it and 121 00:04:43,350 --> 00:04:41,040 was really the first one to get that 122 00:04:45,830 --> 00:04:43,360 story out 123 00:04:47,270 --> 00:04:45,840 and after a while the paper which is a 124 00:04:49,590 --> 00:04:47,280 smaller paper it's not a 125 00:04:51,110 --> 00:04:49,600 it's a small town paper just wanted to 126 00:04:54,710 --> 00:04:51,120 move on 127 00:04:56,710 --> 00:04:54,720 and didn't want to be covered anymore 128 00:04:59,110 --> 00:04:56,720 and she didn't like that she put some 129 00:05:01,830 --> 00:04:59,120 resistance up and ultimately 130 00:05:03,270 --> 00:05:01,840 left the paper uh if it wasn't for that 131 00:05:04,710 --> 00:05:03,280 event 132 00:05:06,710 --> 00:05:04,720 she might still be working she might 133 00:05:08,310 --> 00:05:06,720 have been working for the stephensville 134 00:05:11,189 --> 00:05:08,320 paper i figured the name of it 135 00:05:11,909 --> 00:05:11,199 vampire tribune i think but uh right for 136 00:05:14,629 --> 00:05:11,919 the next 137 00:05:15,590 --> 00:05:14,639 15 years or so but no so it cost her a 138 00:05:17,670 --> 00:05:15,600 job 139 00:05:19,270 --> 00:05:17,680 but she accepted that and she got into 140 00:05:22,150 --> 00:05:19,280 the field and she did her 141 00:05:23,670 --> 00:05:22,160 made her contributions as so many 142 00:05:25,110 --> 00:05:23,680 hundreds of thousands of people have 143 00:05:28,150 --> 00:05:25,120 done what i call research 144 00:05:29,350 --> 00:05:28,160 activist journalists uh in the et 145 00:05:31,510 --> 00:05:29,360 phenomena 146 00:05:33,350 --> 00:05:31,520 uh and made it made a mark and made a 147 00:05:35,270 --> 00:05:33,360 contribution 148 00:05:39,110 --> 00:05:35,280 so and she's just a wonderful person too 149 00:05:43,270 --> 00:05:39,120 just a a lovely lady 150 00:05:47,590 --> 00:05:43,280 and it 151 00:05:52,550 --> 00:05:50,710 she passed from coven 19. as did her 152 00:05:54,629 --> 00:05:52,560 husband literally a day within 153 00:05:56,550 --> 00:05:54,639 her husband when she died it was uh it's 154 00:05:58,309 --> 00:05:56,560 a horrible story steve it really is 155 00:05:59,590 --> 00:05:58,319 yeah it's about as bad as it gets so 156 00:06:00,790 --> 00:05:59,600 there have been plenty of bad story 157 00:06:03,110 --> 00:06:00,800 horrible stories 158 00:06:03,990 --> 00:06:03,120 but essentially she's 59 years old her 159 00:06:06,390 --> 00:06:04,000 husband 160 00:06:08,150 --> 00:06:06,400 she goes in says she gets covered with 161 00:06:09,430 --> 00:06:08,160 with the husband at the same time 162 00:06:11,590 --> 00:06:09,440 they end up pretty much going to the 163 00:06:14,469 --> 00:06:11,600 hospital at the same time but his 164 00:06:16,150 --> 00:06:14,479 his disease progresses a little faster 165 00:06:16,790 --> 00:06:16,160 and so ultimately he has to go to the 166 00:06:19,590 --> 00:06:16,800 ventilator 167 00:06:19,990 --> 00:06:19,600 i think a day or two before her death 168 00:06:22,790 --> 00:06:20,000 and so 169 00:06:24,390 --> 00:06:22,800 she is aware of this she knows this she 170 00:06:27,270 --> 00:06:24,400 knows that he is 171 00:06:28,230 --> 00:06:27,280 in what could be the final uh final uh 172 00:06:31,510 --> 00:06:28,240 sage 173 00:06:34,710 --> 00:06:31,520 and he dies now she 174 00:06:37,749 --> 00:06:34,720 has to cope with that while preparing to 175 00:06:41,029 --> 00:06:37,759 go to the ventilator herself 176 00:06:48,469 --> 00:06:44,870 so um 177 00:06:50,309 --> 00:06:48,479 let me just say as someone who has 178 00:06:53,589 --> 00:06:50,319 got a lot of time on his hands the last 179 00:06:55,990 --> 00:06:53,599 year who watches an enormous amount of 180 00:06:56,950 --> 00:06:56,000 news coverage reads a great deal of 181 00:07:04,309 --> 00:06:56,960 coverage 182 00:07:06,710 --> 00:07:04,319 and has a lot of people uh 183 00:07:08,309 --> 00:07:06,720 conveying to me their opinions on 184 00:07:11,189 -->

--> 00:07:52,800 because a large numbers of people have 201 00:07:57,350 --> 00:07:54,479 been misled 202 00:07:58,469 --> 00:07:57,360 by unscrupulous journalists and 203 00:08:02,070 --> 00:07:58,479 propagandists 204 00:08:02,629 --> 00:08:02,080 politicians pretty much to serve their 205 00:08:06,869 --> 00:08:02,639 own 206 00:08:10,869 --> 00:08:06,879 personal agenda that's 207

very well change and more 220 00:08:41,750 --> 00:08:38,479 people will die 221 00:08:43,829 --> 00:08:41,760 so we lost angelia we're gonna lose some 222 00:08:47,110 --> 00:08:43,839 more 223 00:08:50,150 --> 00:08:47,120 and i don't argue with people one-on-one 224 00:08:52,150 --> 00:08:50,160 i don't post back responses to those 225 00:08:54,230 --> 00:08:52,160 that put their opinions up 226 00:08:55,509 --> 00:08:54,240 but since i do have a bit of a platform 227 00:08:58,389 --> 00:08:55,519 let me say 228 00:09:00,949 --> 00:08:58,399 this disease is real it is not a hoax it 229 00:09:04,470 --> 00:09:00,959 has been handled terribly 230 00:09:07,590 --> 00:09:04,480 and the vaccine is absolutely the way 231 00:09:09,190 --> 00:09:07,600 we're going to get back our country and 232 00:09:13,030 --> 00:09:09,200 our lives 233 00:09:14,949 --> 00:09:13,040 uh i intend to get one i'll get as many 234 00:09:16,790 --> 00:09:14,959 as they want to give me 235 00:09:18,870 --> 00:09:16,800 because i know enough about science to 236 00:09:20,389 --> 00:09:18,880 know that that is what works 237 00:09:21,990 --> 00:09:20,399 doesn't mean that somebody may not have 238 00:09:24,550 --> 00:09:22,000 a poor reaction 239 00:09:26,230 --> 00:09:24,560 but 500 000 people are not going to have 240 00:09:31,670 --> 00:09:26,240 poor reactions 241 00:09:38,710 --> 00:09:35,110 let me also say that i put up angelia 242 00:09:41,829 --> 00:09:38,720 on my immemorial page uh which 243 00:09:44,389 --> 00:09:41,839 chronicles and account and mentions 244 00:09:46,470 --> 00:09:44,399 this of many many people in this field i 245 00:09:49,430 --> 00:09:46,480 don't know how many i'm up to 80 or so 246 00:09:50,389 --> 00:09:49,440 so she's now on that list and in 247 00:09:52,630 --> 00:09:50,399 memoriam 248 00:09:54,550 --> 00:09:52,640 paradigm research group.org you can see 249 00:09:56,790 --> 00:09:54,560 a link to some info about her 250 00:09:58,870 --> 00:09:56,800 and many of the others we've lost over 251 00:10:01,670 --> 00:09:58,880 the last few years so 252 00:10:02,949 --> 00:10:01,680 we we have we we continue on frank to 253 00:10:06,550 --> 00:10:02,959 get the job done 254 00:10:09,590 --> 00:10:06,560 yeah i you know i don't understand it 255 00:10:12,150 --> 00:10:09,600 at least from my eyes you know i was uh 256 00:10:13,670 --> 00:10:12,160 watching those uh the news releases and 257 00:10:15,829 --> 00:10:13,680 the videos coming in from 258 00:10:17,350 --> 00:10:15,839 italy i mean that was almost a year ago 259 00:10:19,030 --> 00:10:17,360 already you know what i mean 260 00:10:21,990 --> 00:10:19,040 and if you didn't see that there was a 261 00:10:23,590 --> 00:10:22,000 problem coming a real problem coming 262 00:10:25,190 --> 00:10:23,600 i don't know what you were thinking 263 00:10:27,990 --> 00:10:25,200 because it was 264 00:10:28,870 --> 00:10:28,000 obviously a really bad bug a really bad 265 00:10:31,509 --> 00:10:28,880 virus 266 00:10:31,990 --> 00:10:31,519 and you just have to protect your health 267 00:10:35,590 --> 00:10:32,000 and 268 00:10:37,430 --> 00:10:35,600 you know i'm seeing a lot of it you know 269 00:10:39,430 --> 00:10:37,440 down there in texas maybe they thought 270 00:10:40,550 --> 00:10:39,440 that uh they didn't have to worry about 271 00:10:43,590 --> 00:10:40,560 it quite so much 272 00:10:46,389 --> 00:10:43,600 i know it it's being a a 273 00:10:48,230 --> 00:10:46,399 pretty devastating a little bit more in 274 00:10:51,030 --> 00:10:48,240 the rural areas it took a while 275 00:10:51,829 --> 00:10:51,040 for it to get out there and people just 276 00:10:53,829 --> 00:10:51,839 uh 277 00:10:56,710 --> 00:10:53,839 you know they just didn't see it coming 278 00:10:58,389 --> 00:10:56,720 and i did see an interview with a nurse 279 00:11:00,150 --> 00:10:58,399 who was working at a rural hospital and 280 00:11:01,750 --> 00:11:00,160 they're getting overrun right now 281 00:11:03,910 --> 00:11:01,760 and she was saying people just don't 282 00:11:06,949 --> 00:11:03,920 take it seriously until they get it 283 00:11:09,350 --> 00:11:06,959 and uh i think unfortunately 284 00:11:11,829 --> 00:11:09,360 that's a big part of the problem uh for 285 00:11:14,389 --> 00:11:11,839 a long time i was really blaming uh the 286 00:11:16,069 --> 00:11:14,399 politicians uh i know you're alluding to 287 00:11:17,350 --> 00:11:16,079 trump i mean let's not not beat around 288 00:11:19,750 --> 00:11:17,360 the bush as far as 289 00:11:21,350 --> 00:11:19,760 uh the disinformation goes but uh early 290 00:11:23,110 --> 00:11:21,360 on i live in the northeast 291 00:11:25,670 --> 00:11:23,120 you know i wasn't happy at all with the 292 00:11:28,710 --> 00:11:25,680 way uh cuomo and to a lesser extent 293 00:11:31,990 --> 00:11:28,720 uh governor murphy and new jersey and 294 00:11:34,150 --> 00:11:32,000 even our own governor wolf here handle 295 00:11:35,430 --> 00:11:34,160 a lot of it was not happy with them was 296 00:11:37,910 --> 00:11:35,440 not happy with 297 00:11:39,430 --> 00:11:37,920 doctors fauci or redfield at the federal 298 00:11:41,670 --> 00:11:39,440 level the way 299 00:11:43,110 --> 00:11:41,680 they didn't get on the mask situation a 300 00:11:44,710 --> 00:11:43,120 little bit earlier than i think 301 00:11:46,550 --> 00:11:44,720 they should have they should have had 302 00:11:48,790 --> 00:11:46,560 data they should have had studies 303 00:11:51,110 --> 00:11:48,800 about this before this virus even 304 00:11:54,230 --> 00:11:51,120 manifested itself you know 305 00:11:54,710 --> 00:11:54,240 and then they didn't do it and uh again 306 00:11:56,870 --> 00:11:54,720 i was 307 00:11:57,750 --> 00:11:56,880 very unhappy with them but at the end of 308 00:12:00,310 --> 00:11:57,760 the day it's about 309 00:12:01,269 --> 00:12:00,320 individuals protecting their own health 310 00:12:03,350 --> 00:12:01,279 and uh to 311 00:12:04,790 --> 00:12:03,360 to such a great extent that that that 312 00:12:06,389 --> 00:12:04,800 really has not happened i mean it just 313 00:12:08,790 --> 00:12:06,399 hasn't happened 314 00:12:10,870 --> 00:12:08,800 ultimately the the bad work that i think 315 00:12:12,790 --> 00:12:10,880 of the five guys they mentioned and a 316 00:12:16,150 --> 00:12:12,800 lot of others along the way 317 00:12:17,670 --> 00:12:16,160 just sort of sped up the inevitable that 318 00:12:19,350 --> 00:12:17,680 people just don't care enough about 319 00:12:20,710 --> 00:12:19,360 their health in the united states 320 00:12:23,190 --> 00:12:20,720 and if you don't have your health you 321 00:12:25,190 --> 00:12:23,200 don't have anything 322 00:12:26,470 --> 00:12:25,200 let me do mention one thing though just 323 00:12:29,670 --> 00:12:26,480 case i want people to 324 00:12:31,829 --> 00:12:29,680 have a misunderstanding here angelia 325 00:12:34,069 --> 00:12:31,839 took the d seriously oh i know she did i 326 00:12:37,030 --> 00:12:34,079 know she took the precautions 327 00:12:37,990 --> 00:12:37,040 uh she wasn't somebody that that 328 00:12:40,710 --> 00:12:38,000 downplayed it 329 00:12:41,750 --> 00:12:40,720 or bought into the to the propaganda 330 00:12:45,350 --> 00:12:41,760 understood i understood 331 00:12:47,190 --> 00:12:45,360 so she didn't get this because of that 332 00:12:48,870 --> 00:12:47,200 she got this disease because other 333 00:12:52,069 --> 00:12:48,880 people 334 00:12:53,750 --> 00:12:52,079 did not take this disease properly and 335 00:12:56,629 --> 00:12:53,760 believe the propaganda 336 00:12:58,550 --> 00:12:56,639 and help to pass it on around texas and 337 00:12:59,750 --> 00:12:58,560 so she is a victim of other people's 338 00:13:01,750 --> 00:12:59,760 stupidity 339 00:13:03,030 --> 00:13:01,760 as are a lot of people so i want to be 340 00:13:06,790 --> 00:13:03,040 clear on that 341 00:13:08,150 --> 00:13:06,800 and as far as further elaborating and i 342 00:13:11,190 --> 00:13:08,160 won't go any further than this 343 00:13:14,310 --> 00:13:11,200 history will decide who 344 00:13:16,870 --> 00:13:14,320 was most culpable in this fiasco 345 00:13:18,790 --> 00:13:16,880 uh it's a little early for us going 346 00:13:21,190 --> 00:13:18,800 through it to make those decisions 347 00:13:22,870 --> 00:13:21,200 we could argue all day long about who 348 00:13:24,150 --> 00:13:22,880 and what and when but history will we'll 349 00:13:27,030 --> 00:13:24,160 flesh it out 350 00:13:28,870 --> 00:13:27,040 and those that serve the public will be 351 00:13:29,750 --> 00:13:28,880 recognized and those that disserve the 352 00:13:32,069 --> 00:13:29,760 public 353 00:13:33,750 --> 00:13:32,079 will be condemned but that's for history 354 00:13:35,910 --> 00:13:33,760 and that's down the line for now 355 00:13:37,829 --> 00:13:35,920 we just have to find a way to stay alive 356 00:13:38,870 --> 00:13:37,839 yeah just protect yourself at all times 357 00:13:41,670 --> 00:13:38,880 you know that's right the 358 00:13:43,590 --> 00:13:41,680 the virus the virus is a virus it's uh 359 00:13:45,189 --> 00:13:43,600 it doesn't think it doesn't wait around 360 00:13:47,509 --> 00:13:45,199 the corner to jump on you 361 00:13:49,350 --> 00:13:47,519 uh like some some street criminal or 362 00:13:52,230 --> 00:13:49,360 something like that that uh 363 00:13:52,710 --> 00:13:52,240 you know it uh it it does spread it can 364 00:13:54,629 --> 00:13:52,720 spread 365 00:13:57,030 --> 00:13:54,639 a little bit through the air largely 366 00:13:58,310 --> 00:13:57,040 inside uh but uh it doesn't think it 367 00:14:00,470 --> 00:13:58,320 doesn't say oh there there's a 368 00:14:01,590 --> 00:14:00,480 uh there that looks like a fine victim 369 00:14:03,189 --> 00:14:01,600 or i'm going to 370 00:14:04,629 --> 00:14:03,199 pass on that younger person because i'm 371 00:14:05,269 --> 00:14:04,639 not going to be able to kill that person 372 00:14:07,110 --> 00:14:05,279 so let me 373 00:14:09,430 --> 00:14:07,120 let me jump on that older person you 374 00:14:12,710 --> 00:14:11,189 you can protect yourself it's not it's 375 00:14:15,189 --> 00:14:12,720 not rocket science 376 00:14:16,389 --> 00:14:15,199 yes indeed okay all right so yeah what 377 00:14:18,150 --> 00:14:16,399 uh uh 378 00:14:19,750 --> 00:14:18,160 yeah let's get to it it's a terrible oh 379 00:14:20,230 --> 00:14:19,760 uh yeah well one other question steve i 380 00:14:22,389 --> 00:14:20,240 don't 381 00:14:23,350 --> 00:14:22,399 i i was a big fan of that podcast when 382 00:14:25,430 --> 00:14:23,360 she was doing them and 383 00:14:27,590 --> 00:14:25,440 there were some fine interviews i don't 384 00:14:30,870 --> 00:14:27,600 specifically recall you doing the show 385 00:14:34,069 --> 00:14:30,880 but i'm gonna guess that you did 386 00:14:34,629 --> 00:14:34,079 did you do so many don't think so so 387 00:14:38,069 --> 00:14:34,639 many 388 00:14:40,069 --> 00:14:38,079 podcasts a little time i don't think so 389 00:14:43,269 --> 00:14:40,079 but i'm sure it was wonderful 390 00:14:45,030 --> 00:14:43,279 i'm glad she had one i'm i'm 391 00:14:46,629 --> 00:14:45,040 about to launch mine i think i may 392 00:14:47,430 --> 00:14:46,639 actually put it up online tonight we'll 393 00:14:49,670 --> 00:14:47,440 see 394 00:14:51,189 --> 00:14:49,680 um but yeah everybody's got to have a 395 00:14:53,430 --> 00:14:51,199 podcast and 396 00:14:54,230 --> 00:14:53,440 soon i'll have one and and so forth but 397 00:15:00,389 --> 00:14:54,240 uh 398 00:15:02,550 --> 00:15:00,399 new age yeah yeah everybody has power to 399 00:15:04,550 --> 00:15:02,560 express themselves in ways that only uh 400 00:15:07,750 --> 00:15:04,560 previous generations could have imagined 401 00:15:08,470 --> 00:15:07,760 yeah which is fantastic but that also 402 00:15:11,030 --> 00:15:08,480 means that 403 00:15:12,389 --> 00:15:11,040 everybody's opinion increasingly has 404 00:15:13,670 --> 00:15:12,399 almost an equal footing to everyone 405 00:15:15,670 --> 00:15:13,680 else's 406 00:15:16,870 --> 00:15:15,680 uh and a lot there's a lot of opinions 407 00:15:21,269 --> 00:15:16,880 out there 408 00:15:23,030 --> 00:15:21,279 so it's uh dense it's dense 409 00:15:25,590 --> 00:15:23,040 one one could spend virtually their 410 00:15:28,790 --> 00:15:25,600 entire life just sorting through 411 00:15:30,389 --> 00:15:28,800 what people think about this or that uh 412 00:15:32,150 --> 00:15:30,399 because those opinions are actually 413 00:15:34,389 --> 00:15:32,160 turning up in front of us 414 00:15:35,829 --> 00:15:34,399 it's a we're still adjusting to this new 415 00:15:38,870 --> 00:15:35,839 reality ultimately 416 00:15:41,990 --> 00:15:38,880 it is free speech it is uh 417 00:15:43,590 --> 00:15:42,000 a human expression and ultimately i 418 00:15:44,870 --> 00:15:43,600 believe it will serve us well but we're 419 00:15:46,150 --> 00:15:44,880 going through a kind of awkward 420 00:15:49,509 --> 00:15:46,160 transition 421 00:15:52,550 --> 00:15:49,519 where the downside of mass communication 422 00:15:54,550 --> 00:15:52,560 is uh is also impacting our society as 423 00:15:55,350 --> 00:15:54,560 well as the upside yeah we'll see how it 424 00:15:57,189 --> 00:15:55,360 turns out 425 00:15:59,189 --> 00:15:57,199 oh yeah i i think i think it's going 426 00:15:59,990 --> 00:15:59,199 great uh to be perfectly honest with you 427 00:16:02,150 --> 00:16:00,000 yeah 428 00:16:04,150 --> 00:16:02,160 it's sort of like uh the way you you do 429 00:16:06,150 --> 00:16:04,160 have to protect your health at all times 430 00:16:08,069 --> 00:16:06,160 uh basically it's uh protecting your 431 00:16:08,870 --> 00:16:08,079 most valuable resource and that's your 432 00:16:12,230 --> 00:16:08,880 time 433 00:16:12,870 --> 00:16:12,240 and uh you know we lost angela this past 434 00:16:14,389 --> 00:16:12,880 week and 435 00:16:16,389 --> 00:16:14,399 i'm not getting any younger and you're 436 00:16:20,389 --> 00:16:16,399 not getting any younger and uh 437 00:16:22,550 --> 00:16:20,399 time is a a finite resource so 438 00:16:24,629 --> 00:16:22,560 how much time are you going to spend uh 439 00:16:27,509 --> 00:16:24,639 putting it into 440 00:16:29,110 --> 00:16:27,519 less than the uh the the best uh 441 00:16:30,870 --> 00:16:29,120 material out there and 442 00:16:33,030 --> 00:16:30,880 are you going to be able to put the time 443 00:16:35,670 --> 00:16:33,040 in to sort of uh sift through that 444 00:16:36,870 --> 00:16:35,680 and sort of become your own editor and 445 00:16:39,829 --> 00:16:36,880 not rely on 446 00:16:41,509 --> 00:16:39,839 editors at uh news stations or with 447 00:16:42,949 --> 00:16:41,519 newspapers and you have to sort of 448 00:16:45,910 --> 00:16:42,959 become your own editor 449 00:16:46,310 --> 00:16:45,920 and have to develop that skill and uh 450 00:16:48,710 --> 00:16:46,320 yeah 451 00:16:49,990 --> 00:16:48,720 put you put your time into uh the good 452 00:16:52,069 --> 00:16:50,000 material because there 453 00:16:53,910 --> 00:16:52,079 are experts there are people who really 454 00:16:54,949 --> 00:16:53,920 know this field and a lot of other 455 00:16:57,189 --> 00:16:54,959 fields too 456 00:16:58,629 --> 00:16:57,199 that have access to speak their piece 457 00:17:00,550 --> 00:16:58,639 that they never could have gotten 458 00:17:00,949 --> 00:17:00,560 through back in the old days when it was 459 00:17:05,189 --> 00:17:00,959 uh 460 00:17:08,549 --> 00:17:05,199 narrow cast 461 00:17:09,669 --> 00:17:08,559 very much uh having uh insider decision 462 00:17:11,429 --> 00:17:09,679 makers decide 463 00:17:13,029 --> 00:17:11,439 uh what's going to get on and even that 464 00:17:14,390 --> 00:17:13,039 even if you did get through all that 465 00:17:16,230 --> 00:17:14,400 how much time were you going to get to 466 00:17:17,590 --> 00:17:16,240 make your point you know so i think it's 467 00:17:20,230 --> 00:17:17,600 a better world but it 468 00:17:21,909 --> 00:17:20,240 again it it's also a world that's going 469 00:17:24,870 --> 00:17:21,919 to require more individual 470 00:17:27,909 --> 00:17:24,880 responsibility at the same time so 471 00:17:29,430 --> 00:17:27,919 true and i think in general as we try to 472 00:17:33,270 --> 00:17:29,440 adjust to these new 473 00:17:36,390 --> 00:17:33,280 technologies and so forth we need to 474 00:17:38,630 --> 00:17:36,400 finally reach a point where we spend 475 00:17:40,470 --> 00:17:38,640 a lot more time thinking and a lot less 476 00:17:42,390 --> 00:17:40,480 time posting 477 00:17:43,990 --> 00:17:42,400 i think the overall quality of discourse 478 00:17:46,150 --> 00:17:44,000 will improve 479 00:17:47,270 --> 00:17:46,160 and you talked about your own podcast uh 480 00:17:48,390 --> 00:17:47,280 what's the deal with that where are 481 00:17:49,990 --> 00:17:48,400 people going to be able to check that 482 00:17:52,230 --> 00:17:50,000 out 483 00:17:53,270 --> 00:17:52,240 it may go up it may i may watch it this 484 00:17:55,750 --> 00:17:53,280 evening it's the 485 00:17:57,110 --> 00:17:55,760 it's called the disclosure wire podcast 486 00:17:59,669 --> 00:17:57,120 and it will be about the 487 00:18:02,230 --> 00:17:59,679 extraterrestrial et issue 488 00:18:03,110 --> 00:18:02,240 exo politics uh the exo-political aspect 489 00:18:04,710 --> 00:18:03,120 certainly 490 00:18:06,630 --> 00:18:04,720 it will be based in the studio here in 491 00:18:08,710 --> 00:18:06,640 washington d.c near the capitol 492 00:18:10,950 --> 00:18:08,720 or near the white house rather the only 493 00:18:13,669 --> 00:18:10,960 one to do that the only one to broadcast 494 00:18:15,669 --> 00:18:13,679 out of dc so far 495 00:18:17,190 --> 00:18:15,679 it's just about to start it's going to 496 00:18:20,710 --> 00:18:17,200 take time to build it 497 00:18:22,390 --> 00:18:20,720 um and get to guests and

00:18:32,710 --> 00:18:31,520 linked from my website linked from its 505 00:18:36,710 --> 00:18:32,720 own domain 506 00:18:38,470 --> 00:18:36,720 uh disclosurewire.org uh i'll certainly 507 00:18:40,789 --> 00:18:38,480 look at all the other platforms there 508 00:18:42,630 --> 00:18:40,799 are so many now and slowly work it into 509 00:18:46,070 --> 00:18:42,640 all of these it's not 510 00:18:47,430 --> 00:18:46,080 no advertising no no paywall yeah yeah 511 00:18:48,870 --> 00:18:47,440 but you've got there you've got a nice 512 00:18:50,310 --> 00:18:48,880 mailing list you'll be able to promote 513 00:18:51,110 --> 00:18:50,320 it through that i get your emails all 514 00:18:54,390 --> 00:18:51,120 the time 515 00:18:56,310 --> 00:18:54,400 uh but the target for this podcast is 516 00:18:58,310 --> 00:18:56,320 the key target it's for everybody of 517 00:18:59,750 --> 00:18:58,320 course particularly people that don't 518 00:19:01,750 --> 00:18:59,760 know what's going on like to get caught 519 00:19:03,750 --> 00:19:01,760 up but the uh the 520 00:19:05,830 --> 00:19:03,760 important target is the journalists and 521 00:19:09,110 --> 00:19:05,840 academics and political 522 00:19:10,230 --> 00:19:09,120 people in this town in washington uh i'm 523 00:19:12,230 --> 00:19:10,240 hoping 524 00:19:13,430 --> 00:19:12,240 to reach a point where i can get people 525 00:19:15,830 --> 00:19:13,440 to come 526 00:19:18,470 --> 00:19:15,840 hopefully in studio here this will be 527 00:19:21,190 --> 00:19:18,480 obviously after the vaccinations have 528 00:19:23,510 --> 00:19:21,200 taken place uh and people who have never 529 00:19:25,590 --> 00:19:23,520 talked about this issue on camera 530 00:19:26,710 --> 00:19:25,600 but feel comfortable now to do that and 531 00:19:29,190 --> 00:19:26,720 to give them a 532 00:19:30,630 --> 00:19:29,200 an interview and uh discuss their 533 00:19:32,310 --> 00:19:30,640 thinking on it uh there are 534 00:19:33,990 --> 00:19:32,320 a lot of people i assure you in 535 00:19:35,669 --> 00:19:34,000 washington dc that have known for 536 00:19:36,470 --> 00:19:35,679 decades that there's an extraterrestrial 537 00:19:38,630 --> 00:19:36,480 presence 538 00:19:40,470 --> 00:19:38,640 but simply we're not going to talk about 539 00:19:43,270 --> 00:19:40,480 it because it was not 540 00:19:45,750 --> 00:19:43,280 going to help their career or their life 541 00:19:48,789 --> 00:19:45,760 really in any way but that's changing 542 00:19:50,310 --> 00:19:48,799 and uh so while i'm going to have guests 543 00:19:51,669 --> 00:19:50,320 on that you know about i'm sure they've 544 00:19:52,630 --> 00:19:51,679 been talking about this issue for a long 545 00:19:54,230 --> 00:19:52,640 time 546 00:19:55,750 --> 00:19:54,240 i'm i'm seeking those individuals 547 00:19:57,029 --> 00:19:55,760 particularly journalists so we'll see 548 00:19:58,470 --> 00:19:57,039 how that goes 549 00:20:00,630 --> 00:19:58,480 it will go up and i'll start the 550 00:20:02,470 --> 00:20:00,640 promotion of it and uh 551 00:20:03,909 --> 00:20:02,480 but i've been putting it off frankly i 552 00:20:05,270 --> 00:20:03,919 mean it was gonna go 553 00:20:07,270 --> 00:20:05,280 i originally planned to do it in 554 00:20:08,710 --> 00:20:07,280 november december of last year believe 555 00:20:11,270 --> 00:20:08,720 it or not 556 00:20:12,950 --> 00:20:11,280 but i kept putting it off because the 557 00:20:15,110 --> 00:20:12,960 circumstances just weren't right 558 00:20:16,390 --> 00:20:15,120 and i i just didn't want to try to 559 00:20:18,710 --> 00:20:16,400 compete 560 00:20:20,470 --> 00:20:18,720 with the political circus that was going 561 00:20:22,950 --> 00:20:20,480 on it was unrivaled 562 00:20:24,310 --> 00:20:22,960 uh to try to draw the attention of 563 00:20:26,310 --> 00:20:24,320 people in politics and 564 00:20:27,990 --> 00:20:26,320 and and journalism and that's not 565 00:20:29,430 --> 00:20:28,000 entirely over yet 566 00:20:31,270 --> 00:20:29,440 no it's not over yet but i'll tell you i 567 00:20:32,710 --> 00:20:31,280 mean between the pandemic and the 568 00:20:34,390 --> 00:20:32,720 political circus 569 00:20:36,470 --> 00:20:34,400 you just can't compete with that and so 570 00:20:38,390 --> 00:20:36,480 i kept putting it off putting it off 571 00:20:40,630 --> 00:20:38,400 and i was going to launch it on the 572 00:20:41,990 --> 00:20:40,640 seventh the day after the georgia 573 00:20:45,110 --> 00:20:42,000 primaries 574 00:20:47,990 --> 00:20:45,120 well we know how the seventh went and so 575 00:20:49,190 --> 00:20:48,000 i put it off again and i'm hoping to get 576 00:20:52,230 --> 00:20:49,200 it up tonight if not 577 00:20:54,710 --> 00:20:52,240 tomorrow uh i'm ready to go 578 00:20:55,909 --> 00:20:54,720 i've i've got everything set up i know 579 00:20:56,470 --> 00:20:55,919 how to edit it and all that kind of 580 00:20:58,870 --> 00:20:56,480 stuff 581 00:21:05,430 --> 00:20:58,880 so i'll get it up is that i'm not going 582 00:21:08,950 --> 00:21:08,310 less is more clean reasonably well 583 00:21:10,870 --> 00:21:08,960 produced 584 00:21:12,230 --> 00:21:10,880 but i'm not going to try to out fancy 585 00:21:14,870 --> 00:21:12,240 anybody it's all 586 00:21:16,549 --> 00:21:14,880 going to be about content and over time 587 00:21:18,870 --> 00:21:16,559 i'll probably get a little better at it 588 00:21:20,310 --> 00:21:18,880 uh work in some yep slide shows that 589 00:21:22,870 --> 00:21:20,320 that doesn't that does happen 590 00:21:23,510 --> 00:21:22,880 yeah you do you do learn along i'd like 591 00:21:25,110 --> 00:21:23,520 to do that 592 00:21:27,350 --> 00:21:25,120 let's let's try that next time around 593 00:21:28,870 --> 00:21:27,360 yep but that is part of the game 594 00:21:31,190 --> 00:21:28,880 and uh you know at least for me it's 595 00:21:31,669 --> 00:21:31,200 been a really fun process it really has 596 00:21:33,750 --> 00:21:31,679 so i 597 00:21:35,029 --> 00:21:33,760 i think you're going to enjoy it yeah i 598 00:21:37,830 --> 00:21:35,039 think it's the way to go 599 00:21:39,590 --> 00:21:37,840 yeah yeah you're definitely if i enjoy 600 00:21:41,270 --> 00:21:39,600 it as much as all these teenagers are 601 00:21:43,750 --> 00:21:41,280 enjoying their tick tock videos 602 00:21:45,270 --> 00:21:43,760 there you go there you go the only i 603 00:21:47,029 --> 00:21:45,280 guess the only downside is you won't be 604 00:21:48,310 --> 00:21:47,039 able to do as many guest appearances on 605 00:21:51,590 --> 00:21:48,320 other podcasts 606 00:21:53,830 --> 00:21:51,600 oh no no no no my job is to do that 607 00:21:55,350 --> 00:21:53,840 there is no microphone or camera i'm not 608 00:21:56,870 --> 00:21:55,360 wanting to get in front of so i have no 609 00:21:58,710 --> 00:21:56,880 fear that will not stop and 610 00:22:00,390 --> 00:21:58,720 you were talking about trying to line up 611 00:22:01,190 --> 00:22:00,400 some people who don't normally do these 612 00:22:03,110 --> 00:22:01,200 types of shows 613 00:22:05,350 --> 00:22:03,120 i did see within the last couple of 614 00:22:08,230 --> 00:22:05,360 weeks uh professor avi loeb 615 00:22:09,430 --> 00:22:08,240 uh who is a uh an astrophysicist at 616 00:22:11,590 --> 00:22:09,440 harvard who 617 00:22:16,230 --> 00:22:11,600 really believes that that or at least 618 00:22:19,990 --> 00:22:18,230 object that floated around earth a 619 00:22:22,149 --> 00:22:20,000 couple of years back was in fact 620 00:22:23,430 --> 00:22:22,159 an alien probe he's going on record and 621 00:22:25,270 --> 00:22:23,440 he's saying that he's 622 00:22:26,710 --> 00:22:25,280 actually doing a couple of ufo 623 00:22:28,070 --> 00:22:26,720 interviews and i'm toyed with the idea 624 00:22:29,830 --> 00:22:28,080 of asking him myself and 625 00:22:31,990 --> 00:22:29,840 probably should follow up and try to get 626 00:22:34,310 --> 00:22:32,000 him on that uh that isn't 627 00:22:36,630 --> 00:22:34,320 that is uh actually uh even though it's 628 00:22:38,549 --> 00:22:36,640 not directly ufo related well 629 00:22:40,630 --> 00:22:38,559 i mean it kind of is and so there is 630 00:22:42,070 --> 00:22:40,640 some disagreement uh that is an 631 00:22:43,590 --> 00:22:42,080 interesting development that's happened 632 00:22:44,549 --> 00:22:43,600 over the last couple weeks he's got this 633 00:22:46,149 --> 00:22:44,559 book out now 634 00:22:47,830 --> 00:22:46,159 and he's out there you know he's out 635 00:22:49,750 --> 00:22:47,840 there uh flogging it 636 00:22:52,830 --> 00:22:49,760 trying to get it going and he's making 637 00:22:56,390 --> 00:22:52,840 that claim it's a bold claim steve 638 00:22:58,230 --> 00:22:56,400 yeah avi avi loeb dr avi loeb 639 00:22:59,909 --> 00:22:58,240 i believe is the head of the astronomy 640 00:23:03,590 --> 00:22:59,919 department at carbon 641 00:23:05,430 --> 00:23:03,600 uh saw the writing on the wall 642 00:23:07,190 --> 00:23:05,440 read the articles in the new york times 643 00:23:08,870 --> 00:23:07,200 and watched what was going on and 644 00:23:10,230 --> 00:23:08,880 decided it was time to get on board the 645 00:23:12,870 --> 00:23:10,240 disclosure train 646 00:23:14,470 --> 00:23:12,880 okay and uh he's not the only one you're 647 00:23:17,510 --> 00:23:14,480 seeing this 648 00:23:19,190 --> 00:23:17,520 a lot uh totally understandable no 649 00:23:21,590 --> 00:23:19,200 criticism intended 650 00:23:23,110 --> 00:23:21,600 uh but i assure you ten years ago he 651 00:23:25,029 --> 00:23:23,120 wouldn't have dared 652 00:23:28,310 --> 00:23:25,039 take this move now the route that he 653 00:23:31,750 --> 00:23:28,320 took was intriguing to me a little bit 654 00:23:34,630 --> 00:23:31,760 safe just by and large is safe 655 00:23:37,669 --> 00:23:34,640 so he decided that um whoever can 656 00:23:40,710 --> 00:23:37,679 pronounce this 657 00:23:43,190 --> 00:23:40,720 um how do you pronounce it again frank 658 00:23:43,830 --> 00:23:43,200 more more i think that sounds i don't 659 00:23:46,950 --> 00:23:43,840 think that's pretty 660 00:23:48,870 --> 00:23:46,960 hell i'll go with it whatever that uh it 661 00:23:50,149 --> 00:23:48,880 seems like it has a characteristic that 662 00:23:52,070 --> 00:23:50,159 means it's not a natural 663 00:23:53,830 --> 00:23:52,080 rock and it could be a space probe well 664 00:23:56,310 --> 00:23:53,840 this is a fairly safe play 665 00:23:57,990 --> 00:23:56,320 right i don't i don't think it is i 666 00:24:01,350 --> 00:23:58,000 think it's a rock i don't think there is 667 00:24:03,990 --> 00:24:01,360 evidence to even remotely be convincing 668 00:24:04,630 --> 00:24:04,000 that this is a quote probe from outer 669 00:24:07,590 --> 00:24:04,640 space 670 00:24:09,190 --> 00:24:07,600 but it's enough of a hook that he could 671 00:24:09,909 --> 00:24:09,200 he could get on board the train and he 672 00:24:13,590 --> 00:24:09,919 has 673 00:24:16,070 --> 00:24:13,600 it as far as i know 674 00:24:17,590 --> 00:24:16,080 uh unlike john mack who's they tried to 675 00:24:21,110 --> 00:24:17,600 run him out of harvard 676 00:24:21,590 --> 00:24:21,120 with a with a committee uh or rather a 677 00:24:24,470 --> 00:24:21,600 general 678 00:24:26,549 --> 00:24:24,480 what they call it investigation his work 679 00:24:28,390 --> 00:24:26,559 was a little less safe though 680 00:24:30,070 --> 00:24:28,400 i'm sorry his work was a little less 681 00:24:33,590 --> 00:24:30,080 safe though 682 00:24:36,789 --> 00:24:33,600 a little safe but also very early 1992 683 00:24:37,909 --> 00:24:36,799 93 but not abby so avi is on a safe play 684 00:24:39,590 --> 00:24:37,919 he's getting i'm good you're going to 685 00:24:41,990 --> 00:24:39,600 see a lot more people finding 686 00:24:44,310 --> 00:24:42,000 some way to get up on the stage because 687 00:24:46,390 --> 00:24:44,320 they know the play is about to begin 688 00:24:48,070 --> 00:24:46,400 and that's great i'm glad to see him 689 00:24:48,630 --> 00:24:48,080 wish they'd maybe gotten there a little 690 00:24:50,710 --> 00:24:48,640 sooner 691 00:24:52,470 --> 00:24:50,720 but that's all right uh and that's just 692 00:24:55,269 --> 00:24:52,480 one example of many 693 00:24:57,430 --> 00:24:55,279 uh that indicates that something big is 694 00:24:59,669 --> 00:24:57,440 going down and as you know from 695 00:25:01,029 --> 00:24:59,679 interviews we've already had frank i'm 696 00:25:03,909 --> 00:25:01,039 pretty convinced something big 697 00:25:04,390 --> 00:25:03,919 is going down and uh yeah before we move 698 00:25:09,190 --> 00:25:04,400 on 699 00:25:10,470 --> 00:25:09,200 news that uh yuri milner's breakthrough 700 00:25:13,190 --> 00:25:10,480 listen program 701 00:25:14,310 --> 00:25:13,200 has discovered what they think is a very 702 00:25:17,590 --> 00:25:14,320 narrow band 703 00:25:19,909 --> 00:25:17,600 radio signal from proxima centauri 704 00:25:21,590 --> 00:25:19,919 right around the corner the closest star 705 00:25:26,870 --> 00:25:21,600 system to us 706 00:25:32,470 --> 00:25:30,070 the seti programs on occasion have heard 707 00:25:34,470 --> 00:25:32,480 a little something and got on it the wow 708 00:25:36,870 --> 00:25:34,480 signal and so forth 709 00:25:39,190 --> 00:25:36,880 of all the people who need to get on the 710 00:25:42,470 --> 00:25:39,200 train the disclosure train 711 00:25:47,430 --> 00:25:42,480 the seti world has got probably 712 00:25:52,870 --> 00:25:51,190 so if you if you anyone is watching 713 00:25:55,269 --> 00:25:52,880 what's going on and realizing we may 714 00:25:58,710 --> 00:25:55,279 very well be headed for disclosure 715 00:26:00,230 --> 00:25:58,720 and you've been part of a a scientific 716 00:26:03,269 --> 00:26:00,240 endeavor 717 00:26:08,310 --> 00:26:03,279 that for uh 718 00:26:10,390 --> 00:26:08,320 60 years going back to 1960 719 00:26:12,789 --> 00:26:10,400 has been looking for extraterrestrial 720 00:26:15,909 --> 00:26:12,799 signals with no 721 00:26:17,430 --> 00:26:15,919 no results while spending hundreds of 722 00:26:21,750 --> 00:26:17,440 millions of dollars 723 00:26:25,669 --> 00:26:23,909 essentially acting as kind of a front 724 00:26:27,430 --> 00:26:25,679 for the truth embargo 725 00:26:29,190 --> 00:26:27,440 in the sense that we're looking for ets 726 00:26:30,870 --> 00:26:29,200 what's your problem 727 00:26:32,549 --> 00:26:30,880 right all that other stuff you you claim 728 00:26:33,750 --> 00:26:32,559 to be seeing there's nothing there 729 00:26:35,990 --> 00:26:33,760 it's all going to be out there in 730 00:26:38,070 --> 00:26:36,000 signals if you're a yuri milner and you 731 00:26:40,549 --> 00:26:38,080 invested 100 million dollars 732 00:26:41,430 --> 00:26:40,559 supposedly that's what they reported in 733 00:26:44,710 --> 00:26:41,440 quote 734 00:26:48,230 --> 00:26:44,720 looking for these signals boy you want 735 00:26:52,549 --> 00:26:50,710 right and if you don't find one you want 736 00:26:54,789 --> 00:26:52,559 to say you found one because that gives 737 00:26:56,789 --> 00:26:54,799 you a hook to the issue 738 00:26:58,470 --> 00:26:56,799 and you can get on board the disclosure 739 00:27:00,230 --> 00:26:58,480 train 740 00:27:01,990 --> 00:27:00,240 but when the hearings come and the 741 00:27:03,750 --> 00:27:02,000 witnesses start testifying 742 00:27:05,350 --> 00:27:03,760 to the kinds of things that we've been 743 00:27:09,029 --> 00:27:05,360 hearing from witnesses 744 00:27:12,070 --> 00:27:09,039 for almost two years now uh regarding 745 00:27:13,510 --> 00:27:12,080 obviously the the to the stars events uh 746 00:27:16,710 --> 00:27:13,520 to the stars of uh 747 00:27:17,750 --> 00:27:16,720 of uh um the two of the stars academy of 748 00:27:19,110 --> 00:27:17,760 arts and sciences and the 749 00:27:20,310 --> 00:27:19,120 and the articles in the new york times 750 00:27:22,549 --> 00:27:20,320 and the witness testimony from the 751 00:27:24,070 --> 00:27:22,559 pilots if you've been watching that 752 00:27:25,430 --> 00:27:24,080 and you realize hearings are come where 753 00:27:27,590 --> 00:27:25,440 that testimony is going to be given to 754 00:27:30,710 --> 00:27:27,600 congress under oath 755 00:27:34,389 --> 00:27:30,720 not about signals from alpha centauri 756 00:27:37,510 --> 00:27:34,399 but about e.t craft in our sky right now 757 00:27:37,830 --> 00:27:37,520 you want to giddy up right i get in 758 00:27:41,830 --> 00:27:37,840 there 759 00:27:44,230 --> 00:27:41,840 right and so uh uh am i impressed 760 00:27:45,510 --> 00:27:44,240 no do i think yuri milner threw his 761 00:27:48,870 --> 00:27:45,520 money down the toilet 762 00:27:49,430 --> 00:27:48,880 yes uh would it be great if he'd get on 763 00:27:51,669 --> 00:27:49,440 board the 764 00:27:53,190 --> 00:27:51,679 the activism right now and provide help 765 00:27:54,870 --> 00:27:53,200 provide funds so that we can 766 00:27:56,389 --> 00:27:54,880 ensure that the public's interests are 767 00:27:58,230 --> 00:27:56,399 served by this process 768 00:27:59,990 --> 00:27:58,240 that would be nice do i expect that not 769 00:28:03,269 --> 00:28:00,000 a chance 770 00:28:08,389 --> 00:28:03,279 so yeah uh that's my thoughts on that uh 771 00:28:11,990 --> 00:28:09,990 what what history is going to write 772 00:28:13,590 --> 00:28:12,000 about seti 773 00:28:16,549 --> 00:28:13,600 is not something i would ever want to 774 00:28:18,710 --> 00:28:16,559 have to read if i was in city 775 00:28:20,149 --> 00:28:18,720 uh it's not going to be pretty it's 776 00:28:21,990 --> 00:28:20,159 going to be very ugly 777 00:28:23,909 --> 00:28:22,000 and it's going to be a stain on the 778 00:28:26,870 --> 00:28:23,919 scientific community 779 00:28:27,590 --> 00:28:26,880 for a long time well don't you think 780 00:28:30,230 --> 00:28:27,600 that that 781 00:28:31,430 --> 00:28:30,240 is really most about i mean this city is 782 00:28:34,389 --> 00:28:31,440 a lot more 783 00:28:36,549 --> 00:28:34,399 than the the the city.org that's uh 784 00:28:38,789 --> 00:28:36,559 located here in the states i mean it's a 785 00:28:40,630 --> 00:28:38,799 it's a it's a branch of study in the in 786 00:28:42,230 --> 00:28:40,640 astronomy uh 787 00:28:44,149 --> 00:28:42,240 no seti is about searching for 788 00:28:45,669 --> 00:28:44,159 extraterrestrial life right it's not 789 00:28:47,590 --> 00:28:45,679 about searching for extraterrestrial 790 00:28:50,149 --> 00:28:47,600 planets that's being handled by 791 00:28:50,950 --> 00:28:50,159 nasa and right and jpl and they haven't 792 00:28:52,389 --> 00:28:50,960 done any of that 793 00:28:54,470 --> 00:28:52,399 they have built a lot of radio 794 00:28:57,350 --> 00:28:54,480 telescopes which i imagine 795 00:28:58,149 --> 00:28:57,360 some of them were were rented out the is 796 00:28:59,909 --> 00:28:58,159 doing other things 797 00:29:01,430 --> 00:28:59,919 which is what you do you could be if you 798 00:29:03,110 --> 00:29:01,440 have down time you rent it you get time 799 00:29:05,269 --> 00:29:03,120 on it right they've provided that but 800 00:29:07,269 --> 00:29:05,279 let's be clear 801 00:29:08,470 --> 00:29:07,279 it has been the search for 802 00:29:11,590 --> 00:29:08,480 extraterrestrial 803 00:29:13,590 --> 00:29:11,600 signals since 1958 804 00:29:16,710 --> 00:29:13,600 and the and the government knew about 805 00:29:19,190 --> 00:29:16,720 the extraterrestrial presence in 1947 806 00:29:20,710 --> 00:29:19,200 and i guarantee you some of the original 807 00:29:22,549 --> 00:29:20,720 founders of seti knew there was an 808 00:29:23,750 --> 00:29:22,559 extraterrestrial presence 809 00:29:25,110 --> 00:29:23,760 some of the scientists that have worked 810 00:29:26,710 --> 00:29:25,120 for it since have known there's an 811 00:29:28,310 --> 00:29:26,720 extraterrestrial presence 812 00:29:29,830 --> 00:29:28,320 but talking about that was not going to 813 00:29:32,470 --> 00:29:29,840 get them a paycheck 814 00:29:33,909 --> 00:29:32,480 from nasa or the government or private 815 00:29:36,870 --> 00:29:33,919 funders 816 00:29:38,389 --> 00:29:36,880 because that issue was still embargoed 817 00:29:42,310 --> 00:29:38,399 that's cowardice 818 00:29:45,669 --> 00:29:42,320 misrepresentation and scientific fraud 819 00:29:47,190 --> 00:29:45,679 so hey my empathies are with the 820 00:29:47,990 --> 00:29:47,200 scientists that came forward on this 821 00:29:50,230 --> 00:29:48,000 issue when they 822 00:29:51,990 --> 00:29:50,240 knew it was going to cost them not the 823 00:29:52,630 --> 00:29:52,000 scientists that collected paychecks in 824 00:29:56,549 --> 00:29:52,640 order to play 825 00:29:59,029 --> 00:29:56,559 games with science and misrepresent it 826 00:29:59,830 --> 00:29:59,039 uh and misrepresent to funders i'm sure 827 00:30:02,149 --> 00:29:59,840 milner was 828 00:30:04,549 --> 00:30:02,159 was was given a whole bill of goods 829 00:30:07,750 --> 00:30:04,559 right and convinced wow i'm gonna put 830 00:30:10,310 --> 00:30:07,760 tons of money into this well 831 00:30:10,870 --> 00:30:10,320 he was conned and his money went down 832 00:30:13,029 --> 00:30:10,880 the drain 833 00:30:14,549 --> 00:30:13,039 so i have no sympathies frank none there 834 00:30:17,750 --> 00:30:14,559 is no sympathy 835 00:30:19,269 --> 00:30:17,760 at all so you don't think that uh that 836 00:30:20,789 --> 00:30:19,279 type of thing that the ex 837 00:30:23,029 --> 00:30:20,799 the exoplanet hunting you're separating 838 00:30:25,510 --> 00:30:23,039 those out yeah 839 00:30:26,389 --> 00:30:25,520 yeah yeah i love the exoplanet stuff 840 00:30:29,029 --> 00:30:26,399 that work 841 00:30:30,389 --> 00:30:29,039 has done more to really galvanize a 842 00:30:33,029 --> 00:30:30,399 large portion of the public to the 843 00:30:36,630 --> 00:30:33,039 reality we're not alone in this universe 844 00:30:37,269 --> 00:30:36,640 but understand well before those planets 845 00:30:39,350 --> 00:30:37,279 were 846 00:30:41,029 --> 00:30:39,360 being quote chronicled by the various 847 00:30:43,510 --> 00:30:41,039 telescopes 848 00:30:45,190 --> 00:30:43,520 plenty of knowledgeable scientists had 849 00:30:46,710 --> 00:30:45,200 already arrived at the conclusion that 850 00:30:50,470 --> 00:30:46,720 absolutely 851 00:30:51,750 --> 00:30:50,480 this the galaxy is filled with planets 852 00:30:54,549 --> 00:30:51,760 but you know they didn't get a lot of 853 00:30:55,110 --> 00:30:54,559 attention why because if the galaxy is 854 00:30:56,549 --> 00:30:55,120 filled with 855 00:30:58,549 --> 00:30:56,559 planets and there's a good chance that 856 00:31:00,149 --> 00:30:58,559 galaxy is filled with life and if it's 857 00:31:01,110 --> 00:31:00,159 filled with life it may be filled with 858 00:31:02,789 --> 00:31:01,120 sensient life 859 00:31:04,630 --> 00:31:02,799 and if their sentient life they could be 860 00:31:06,470 --> 00:31:04,640 advanced and they could have starships 861 00:31:08,230 --> 00:31:06,480 and that would bring us to the e.t issue 862 00:31:09,509 --> 00:31:08,240 and you're not allowed to talk about 863 00:31:12,630 --> 00:31:09,519 that 864 00:31:13,990 --> 00:31:12,640 it's embargoed shut your mouth or we'll 865 00:31:17,110 --> 00:31:14,000 take your paycheck 866 00:31:20,470 --> 00:31:17,120 right so 867 00:31:21,990 --> 00:31:20,480 even the the scientific work 868 00:31:23,669 --> 00:31:22,000 that have have brought forward these 869 00:31:25,350 --> 00:31:23,679 exoplanets and really 870 00:31:27,029 --> 00:31:25,360 uh provided a census of the universe 871 00:31:29,830 --> 00:31:27,039 it's profound 872 00:31:30,870 --> 00:31:29,840 let me put it this way their attitude 873 00:31:33,990 --> 00:31:30,880 and what they will say 874 00:31:34,870 --> 00:31:34,000 is well until we actually saw those 875 00:31:38,149 --> 00:31:34,880 planets 876 00:31:39,990 --> 00:31:38,159 on our uh uh screening 877 00:31:41,750 --> 00:31:40,000 right of these various solar systems 878 00:31:43,590 --> 00:31:41,760 using the advanced techniques 879 00:31:45,029 --> 00:31:43,600 that showed there was a planet there 880 00:31:47,750 --> 00:31:45,039 until we actually 881 00:31:49,509 --> 00:31:47,760 saw that hard evidence we just couldn't 882 00:31:51,430 --> 00:31:49,519 really talk about 883 00:31:53,110 --> 00:31:51,440 the fact there could be a lot of planets 884 00:31:54,710 --> 00:31:53,120 i think one scientist not too long ago 885 00:31:55,990 --> 00:31:54,720 about 15 years ago wrote a book called 886 00:31:58,950 --> 00:31:56,000 rare earth 887 00:32:00,630 --> 00:31:58,960 making the case about how we are really 888 00:32:02,549 --> 00:32:00,640 rare in this universe 889 00:32:04,630 --> 00:32:02,559 but that's how science sort of works 890 00:32:06,310 --> 00:32:04,640 they they don't go out on limbs 891 00:32:07,909 --> 00:32:06,320 they might speculate a little bit and 892 00:32:10,070 --> 00:32:07,919 talk in terms of uh 893 00:32:11,990 --> 00:32:10,080 probabilities there's a high probability 894 00:32:13,750 --> 00:32:12,000 of this a low probability of that 895 00:32:15,430 --> 00:32:13,760 that that's how science works on every 896 00:32:16,630 --> 00:32:15,440 field those students no that's not how 897 00:32:19,509 --> 00:32:16,640 science okay 898 00:32:21,830 --> 00:32:19,519 let's talk about atomic physics well 899 00:32:23,750 --> 00:32:21,840 before we actually saw a proton 900 00:32:24,870 --> 00:32:23,760 there were plenty of science saying 901 00:32:34,149 --> 00:32:24,880 there 902 00:32:35,590 --> 00:32:34,159 and they were theorizing about and 903 00:32:36,710 --> 00:32:35,600 talking about it and putting it into 904 00:32:39,029 --> 00:32:36,720 play 905 00:32:41,669 --> 00:32:39,039 which is appropriate all right and then 906 00:32:42,950 --> 00:32:41,679 eventually we discovered those particles 907 00:32:44,789 --> 00:32:42,960 what i'm trying but you see the 908 00:32:46,230 --> 00:32:44,799 government didn't intervene the 909 00:32:48,310 --> 00:32:46,240 government didn't come into the people 910 00:32:49,750 --> 00:32:48,320 that are trying to theorize about 911 00:32:52,389 --> 00:32:49,760 the fact that there may be protons and 912 00:32:54,470 --> 00:32:52,399 electrons and say that's embargoed 913 00:32:56,870 --> 00:32:54,480 uh you can't talk about that national 914 00:32:59,990 --> 00:32:56,880 security don't have a right to know 915 00:33:01,990 --> 00:33:00,000 no on this issue that's what happened 916 00:33:03,430 --> 00:33:02,000 and that's not the way science works 917 00:33:05,110 --> 00:33:03,440 science is not supposed to say look 918 00:33:06,470 --> 00:33:05,120 we're theorizing this is happening oh no 919 00:33:08,789 --> 00:33:06,480 the government says we can't go there 920 00:33:11,430 --> 00:33:08,799 okay i'll shut up 921 00:33:12,549 --> 00:33:11,440 no that's not how science works frank uh 922 00:33:13,990 --> 00:33:12,559 and so in this case 923 00:33:16,149 --> 00:33:14,000 one of the reasons that truth embargo 924 00:33:17,430 --> 00:33:16,159 needs to take place is so we can fix 925 00:33:19,110 --> 00:33:17,440 that 926 00:33:21,430 --> 00:33:19,120 so i don't want the government 927 00:33:24,070 --> 00:33:21,440 intervening in massively important 928 00:33:24,950 --> 00:33:24,080 theoretical science and science for 929 00:33:27,190 --> 00:33:24,960 political 930 00:33:28,630 --> 00:33:27,200 reasons now it's happened in the with 931 00:33:31,430 --> 00:33:28,640 the nazis has happened 932 00:33:33,029 --> 00:33:31,440 with uh with a number of societies over 933 00:33:34,710 --> 00:33:33,039 the years we get that 934 00:33:36,870 --> 00:33:34,720 they've killed scientists burning by the 935 00:33:38,630 --> 00:33:36,880 stake in all of that america is supposed 936 00:33:41,830 --> 00:33:38,640 to be better than that 937 00:33:46,310 --> 00:33:41,840 shining city on the hill right 938 00:33:49,430 --> 00:33:46,320 right the uh uh the special nation 939 00:33:51,269 --> 00:33:49,440 so we have to stop that we want a free 940 00:33:51,669 --> 00:33:51,279 scientific community not interfered with 941 00:33:55,269 --> 00:33:51,679 by 942 00:33:57,509 --> 00:33:55,279 stupid politicians well i say stupid 943 00:33:59,990 --> 00:33:57,519 look the embargo of the e.t issue was 944 00:34:02,710 --> 00:34:00,000 for national security reasons 945 00:34:04,470 --> 00:34:02,720 and there was a nuclear standoff going 946 00:34:06,950 --> 00:34:04,480 on so 947 00:34:09,109 --> 00:34:06,960 let's just say that it wasn't all 948 00:34:12,389 --> 00:34:09,119 stupidity some of it was 949 00:34:15,589 --> 00:34:12,399 a a realistic concern 950 00:34:18,710 --> 00:34:15,599 that the et issues emergence was 951 00:34:20,710 --> 00:34:18,720 poorly timed that if it wasn't for the 952 00:34:22,310 --> 00:34:20,720 nuclear standoff and the existential 953 00:34:23,829 --> 00:34:22,320 threat to all of humanity 954 00:34:26,310 --> 00:34:23,839 we might have been more open about that 955 00:34:27,750 --> 00:34:26,320 so let me let me back off a little bit 956 00:34:29,430 --> 00:34:27,760 since the cold war ended though 957 00:34:30,550 --> 00:34:29,440 stupidity has become a little bit more 958 00:34:32,069 --> 00:34:30,560 prevalent 959 00:34:33,589 --> 00:34:32,079 national security a little less 960 00:34:35,990 --> 00:34:33,599 appropriate 961 00:34:37,990 --> 00:34:36,000 so yeah uh but you know i have hearts i 962 00:34:39,190 --> 00:34:38,000 believe i have hard views about this 963 00:34:39,829 --> 00:34:39,200 right i don't talk about them all the 964 00:34:41,510 --> 00:34:39,839 time 965 00:34:42,950 --> 00:34:41,520 but they will be discussed and they'll 966 00:34:45,510 --> 00:34:42,960 be discussed by me but 967 00:34:46,950 --> 00:34:45,520 right now i'm more interested in getting 968 00:34:48,629 --> 00:34:46,960 the job done i'm more interested in 969 00:34:51,109 --> 00:34:48,639 helping 970 00:34:52,710 --> 00:34:51,119 end this truth embargo get this 971 00:34:55,349 --> 00:34:52,720 confirmation out 972 00:34:56,470 --> 00:34:55,359 so that the world can decide how they 973 00:34:58,150 --> 00:34:56,480 want to act 974 00:35:00,230 --> 00:34:58,160 what kind of policies they want to have 975 00:35:02,870 --> 00:35:00,240 what kind of science they want to pursue 976 00:35:04,390 --> 00:35:02,880 in an era when they know not only that 977 00:35:06,950 --> 00:35:04,400 they're not alone in the universe but 978 00:35:10,790 --> 00:35:06,960 advanced technology civilizations 979 00:35:15,349 --> 00:35:13,829 and uh yeah before we move on and i i do 980 00:35:16,790 --> 00:35:15,359 we spend a lot of time on the science 981 00:35:17,990 --> 00:35:16,800 but that's good because it doesn't get 982 00:35:19,670 --> 00:35:18,000 discussed that much 983 00:35:21,109 --> 00:35:19,680 another paper that recently came out 984 00:35:24,310 --> 00:35:21,119 that was co-authored by 985 00:35:26,710 --> 00:35:24,320 a nasa scientist and unfortunately 986 00:35:29,109 --> 00:35:26,720 his name is not on the tip of my tongue 987 00:35:30,710 --> 00:35:29,119 but he was the co-author of this study 988 00:35:32,630 --> 00:35:30,720 uh what they've done is actually uh 989 00:35:35,670 --> 00:35:32,640 built a a model 990 00:35:36,230 --> 00:35:35,680 to try to figure out where uh these 991 00:35:38,069 --> 00:35:36,240 advanced 992 00:35:39,270 --> 00:35:38,079 extraterrestrial civilizations are 993 00:35:41,510 --> 00:35:39,280 actually located 994 00:35:42,390 --> 00:35:41,520 uh the main point from the paper was 995 00:35:44,950 --> 00:35:42,400 that 996 00:35:45,990 --> 00:35:44,960 he they think uh based on the models 997 00:35:47,910 --> 00:35:46,000 that they put together 998 00:35:50,230 --> 00:35:47,920 uh that these civilizations are most 999 00:35:50,790 --> 00:35:50,240 likely much closer to the galactic 1000 00:35:53,829 --> 00:35:50,800 center 1001 00:35:55,990 --> 00:35:53,839 we're about 25 000 light years out and 1002 00:35:58,230 --> 00:35:56,000 uh the estimate from this particular 1003 00:36:00,870 --> 00:35:58,240 model is they're more along the lines of 1004 00:36:01,510 --> 00:36:00,880 you know maybe uh seven to nine thousand 1005 00:36:03,510 --> 00:36:01,520 uh uh 1006 00:36:05,430 --> 00:36:03,520 uh light years uh from the galactic 1007 00:36:06,310 --> 00:36:05,440 center uh an interesting paper uh 1008 00:36:08,310 --> 00:36:06,320 obviously 1009 00:36:10,150 --> 00:36:08,320 they're just uh theoretical models uh 1010 00:36:10,950 --> 00:36:10,160 but again uh these kind of papers are 1011 00:36:13,910 --> 00:36:10,960 being written 1012 00:36:14,710 --> 00:36:13,920 and uh i think it's a huge step in the 1013 00:36:17,829 --> 00:36:14,720 right direction 1014 00:36:19,349 --> 00:36:17,839 and uh it's not hurting us uh not by any 1015 00:36:20,870 --> 00:36:19,359 stretch of the imagination 1016 00:36:23,190 --> 00:36:20,880 and these scholars that are writing this 1017 00:36:26,069 --> 00:36:23,200 paper that's their way 1018 00:36:26,870 --> 00:36:26,079 of getting on board the train something 1019 00:36:28,470 --> 00:36:26,880 anything 1020 00:36:29,910 --> 00:36:28,480 right if you know the biggest event in 1021 00:36:31,750 --> 00:36:29,920 human history with probably the most 1022 00:36:33,510 --> 00:36:31,760 profound scientific implications of any 1023 00:36:36,069 --> 00:36:33,520 of that human history is coming 1024 00:36:36,710 --> 00:36:36,079 and you're a scientist even remotely 1025 00:36:38,630 --> 00:36:36,720 connected 1026 00:36:40,790 --> 00:36:38,640 but certainly in astronomy astrophysics 1027 00:36:41,510 --> 00:36:40,800 and so forth but even astrobiology and 1028 00:36:42,950 --> 00:36:41,520 so forth 1029 00:36:44,870 --> 00:36:42,960 and you just kind of figure this is 1030 00:36:46,390 --> 00:36:44,880 coming you're not going to necessarily 1031 00:36:46,790 --> 00:36:46,400 run out in the street and start yelling 1032 00:36:49,030 --> 00:36:46,800 yeah 1033 00:36:50,310 --> 00:36:49,040 disclosure is coming but because 1034 00:36:51,910 --> 00:36:50,320 nobody's going to listen to you but 1035 00:36:53,670 --> 00:36:51,920 but you're going to certainly think how 1036 00:36:55,829 --> 00:36:53,680 can i get on this train 1037 00:36:56,710 --> 00:36:55,839 how can i be part of this event what can 1038 00:36:58,790 --> 00:36:56,720 i do 1039 00:37:00,630 --> 00:36:58,800 right and if you've never done anything 1040 00:37:03,430 --> 00:37:00,640 before it's a little tough but 1041 00:37:04,790 --> 00:37:03,440 everyone is searching how what can i say 1042 00:37:07,030 --> 00:37:04,800 what can i do 1043 00:37:10,069 --> 00:37:07,040 that hooks me to what's coming down and 1044

00:37:18,870 --> 00:37:16,880 uh this uh pentagon report that's uh 1048 00:37:21,109 --> 00:37:18,880 supposed to uh become public in 1049 00:37:23,190 --> 00:37:21,119 roughly six months or so uh comes out 1050 00:37:24,390 --> 00:37:23,200 and says yeah there's at least a uh 1051 00:37:26,630 --> 00:37:24,400 we think there's at least the 1052 00:37:29,030 --> 00:37:26,640 possibility or let's say that they uh 1053 00:37:30,550 --> 00:37:29,040 they they say uh we think uh these are 1054 00:37:31,910 --> 00:37:30,560 some of these ufos or e.t 1055 00:37:33,430 --> 00:37:31,920 let's say they come out and say that 1056 00:37:35,270 --> 00:37:33,440 well that's going to raise a lot more 1057 00:37:38,790 --> 00:37:35,280 questions than it's going to answer 1058 00:37:40,630 --> 00:37:38,800 because well 1059 00:37:42,390 --> 00:37:40,640 yeah but here's what i believe is going 1060 00:37:44,950 --> 00:37:42,400 to happen right 1061 00:37:46,550 --> 00:37:44,960 uh we're i think the stage is set for 1062 00:37:47,510 --> 00:37:46,560 hearings and i think we could have them 1063 00:37:49,510 --> 00:37:47,520 very quickly 1064 00:37:50,550 --> 00:37:49,520 we should you would you had mentioned 1065 00:37:51,349 --> 00:37:50,560 that and that was the next thing i 1066 00:37:53,510 --> 00:37:51,359 wanted to jump to 1067 00:37:54,470 --> 00:37:53,520 so let's talk about the hearings i i 1068 00:37:58,870 --> 00:37:54,480 invite everybody 1069 00:38:03,510 --> 00:37:58,880 um once the inauguration is over 1070 00:38:06,390 --> 00:38:03,520 and uh the street warfare is over 1071 00:38:07,030 --> 00:38:06,400 and things get a little back to normal 1072 00:38:09,829 --> 00:38:07,040 watch 1073 00:38:11,510 --> 00:38:09,839 the news very carefully and most people 1074 00:38:15,190 --> 00:38:11,520 are 1075 00:38:16,310 --> 00:38:15,200 for anything that sort of pokes at the 1076 00:38:17,910 --> 00:38:16,320 idea of hearings 1077 00:38:19,349 --> 00:38:17,920 watch it because it can come up very 1078 00:38:23,030 --> 00:38:19,359 very quickly 1079 00:38:26,630 --> 00:38:23,040 so what i think is going should happen 1080 00:38:28,230 --> 00:38:26,640 is that the witnesses are ready 1081 00:38:30,710 --> 00:38:28,240 members of congress key members of 1082 00:38:33,270 --> 00:38:30,720 congress have been briefed 1083 00:38:35,670 --> 00:38:33,280 and and then in the next administration 1084 00:38:36,790 --> 00:38:35,680 things are going to be a lot more stable 1085 00:38:39,829 --> 00:38:36,800 and a lot of things are going to be 1086 00:38:41,589 --> 00:38:39,839 pushed off to the side to be handled by 1087 00:38:43,829 --> 00:38:41,599 other parts of the government or 1088 00:38:46,390 --> 00:38:43,839 whatever uh 1089 00:38:48,069 --> 00:38:46,400 so hearings in which these witnesses 1090 00:38:49,589 --> 00:38:48,079 come forward 1091 00:38:51,829 --> 00:38:49,599 could take place right away and that 1092 00:38:53,270 --> 00:38:51,839 would begin so we're talking not one day 1093 00:38:55,349 --> 00:38:53,280 we're talking weeks 1094 00:38:57,109 --> 00:38:55,359 we're talking multiple committees senate 1095 00:38:59,109 --> 00:38:57,119 intelligence house intelligence armed 1096 00:39:00,870 --> 00:38:59,119 services and so forth 1097 00:39:02,710 --> 00:39:00,880 and these hearings will be watched by 1098 00:39:04,069 --> 00:39:02,720 hundreds of millions of people you can 1099 00:39:05,589 --> 00:39:04,079 bet on that 1100 00:39:08,390 --> 00:39:05,599 and hundreds of millions people will be 1101 00:39:10,790 --> 00:39:08,400 tuning in and and seeing this evidence 1102 00:39:12,470 --> 00:39:10,800 of many much of which we've already seen 1103 00:39:15,349 --> 00:39:12,480 in other contexts 1104 00:39:16,470 --> 00:39:15,359 uh but under oath in front of real 1105 00:39:19,829 --> 00:39:16,480 members of congress 1106 00:39:21,670 --> 00:39:19,839 in in committee rooms uh and that's 1107 00:39:22,310 --> 00:39:21,680 gonna generate an enormous amount of 1108 00:39:25,750 --> 00:39:22,320 excitement 1109 00:39:28,950 --> 00:39:25,760 now while that is going on 1110 00:39:31,670 --> 00:39:28,960 the reports from the oni office of naval 1111 00:39:33,670 --> 00:39:31,680 intelligence and other agencies 1112 00:39:35,030 --> 00:39:33,680 will start coming in they don't have to 1113 00:39:37,109 --> 00:39:35,040 wait until the deadline 1114 00:39:39,510 --> 00:39:37,119 june 25 or so they can come anytime they 1115 00:39:41,829 --> 00:39:39,520 want and they will bring in information 1116 00:39:44,390 --> 00:39:41,839 it could be drawn right into those 1117 00:39:46,230 --> 00:39:44,400 hearings could be very powerful 1118 00:39:47,589 --> 00:39:46,240 now one of the reasons we need to have 1119 00:39:52,069 --> 00:39:47,599 hearings early on 1120 00:39:54,069 --> 00:39:52,079 is this for 70 years the government has 1121 00:39:56,950 --> 00:39:54,079 been stonewalling on this issue 1122 00:39:58,550 --> 00:39:56,960 refusing to answer foias refusing to 1123 00:40:00,390 --> 00:39:58,560 give information to presidents 1124 00:40:02,310 --> 00:40:00,400 or providing disinformation when they 1125 00:40:05,270 --> 00:40:02,320 thought it would serve the truth embargo 1126 00:40:05,990 --> 00:40:05,280 uh every trick in the book in order to 1127 00:40:09,270 --> 00:40:06,000 not 1128 00:40:11,270 --> 00:40:09,280 put out hard clear 1129 00:40:13,430 --> 00:40:11,280 files and documents and information that 1130 00:40:16,470 --> 00:40:13,440 they have a 70-year track record of this 1131 00:40:18,550 --> 00:40:16,480 and so there's no reason not to think 1132 00:40:19,670 --> 00:40:18,560 that the reports are going to come in 1133 00:40:22,630 --> 00:40:19,680 from the o and i will 1134 00:40:24,150 --> 00:40:22,640 be mush it'll be the usual not 1135 00:40:27,270 --> 00:40:24,160 particularly significant 1136 00:40:29,030 --> 00:40:27,280 uh a whole bunch of things not repo 1137 00:40:31,030 --> 00:40:29,040 not not reported that could be and so 1138 00:40:32,069 --> 00:40:31,040 forth thus leaving that question mark 1139 00:40:34,470 --> 00:40:32,079 hanging in the air 1140 00:40:36,230 --> 00:40:34,480 which if it happened and hearings hadn't 1141 00:40:37,910 --> 00:40:36,240 been take taken place by then 1142 00:40:39,589 --> 00:40:37,920 then it's possible that those within 1143 00:40:41,670 --> 00:40:39,599 congress and others could make the case 1144 00:40:43,589 --> 00:40:41,680 what's the point of having hearings 1145 00:40:46,390 --> 00:40:43,599 there wasn't that it wasn't anything 1146 00:40:48,630 --> 00:40:46,400 absolutely uh confirmatory that we got 1147 00:40:51,430 --> 00:40:48,640 from our wonderful agencies 1148 00:40:52,950 --> 00:40:51,440 right who would never mislead us or hold 1149 00:40:54,230 --> 00:40:52,960 back the truth right 1150 00:40:56,069 --> 00:40:54,240 and blow the whole thing out of the 1151 00:40:57,829 --> 00:40:56,079 water absolutely not 1152 00:41:00,309 --> 00:40:57,839 on the other hand if hearings are taking 1153 00:41:03,030 --> 00:41:00,319 place and this testimony is 1154 00:41:04,790 --> 00:41:03,040 galvanizing people all over the world 1155 00:41:05,990 --> 00:41:04,800 the people inside these agencies are 1156 00:41:08,950 --> 00:41:06,000 going to go 1157 00:41:10,630 --> 00:41:08,960 now we we can't sit this one out uh we 1158 00:41:12,230 --> 00:41:10,640 need to get on board too 1159 00:41:14,150 --> 00:41:12,240 and so let's give them what they want 1160 00:41:16,309 --> 00:41:14,160 let's really provide 1161 00:41:17,190 --> 00:41:16,319 documents that normally they would never 1162 00:41:19,589 --> 00:41:17,200 get to see 1163 00:41:20,950 --> 00:41:19,599 let's bring out stuff that just closes 1164 00:41:24,069 --> 00:41:20,960 the case 1165 00:41:26,390 --> 00:41:24,079 and that way everybody wins 1166

00:44:31,750 --> 00:44:30,079 really did not get at least in my view 1254 00:44:34,390 --> 00:44:31,760 of the attention that it should have 1255 00:44:36,309 --> 00:44:34,400 these are high-level pentagon players 1256 00:44:36,790 --> 00:44:36,319 passing this information back and forth 1257 00:44:40,710 --> 00:44:36,800 this is 1258 00:44:41,589 --> 00:44:40,720 seriously it's uh it's documented we 1259 00:44:43,670 --> 00:44:41,599 know this 1260 00:44:45,430 --> 00:44:43,680 they've always taken it seriously frank 1261 00:44:47,190 --> 00:44:45,440 from day one i assure you they've taken 1262 00:44:49,510 --> 00:44:47,200 it with the utmost seriousness 1263 00:44:51,270 --> 00:44:49,520 the truth embargo was testimony to that 1264 00:44:52,950 --> 00:44:51,280 they didn't invest this vast amount of 1265 00:44:54,550 --> 00:44:52,960 effort and time and resources 1266 00:44:55,829 --> 00:44:54,560 in embargoing the truth of something 1267 00:44:56,950 --> 00:44:55,839 that was apparent to anybody that could 1268 00:44:58,550 --> 00:44:56,960 look up in the sky 1269 00:44:59,990 --> 00:44:58,560 for 70 years because they didn't take it 1270 00:45:02,390 --> 00:45:00,000 seriously 1271 00:45:03,030 --> 00:45:02,400 and x number of documents have emerged 1272 00:45:06,069 --> 00:45:03,040 over the 1273 00:45:07,829 --> 00:45:06,079 past 70 years the research community 1274 00:45:10,069 --> 00:45:07,839 pretty much has seized on everyone 1275 00:45:12,150 --> 00:45:10,079 they've gotten some some degree of 1276 00:45:13,510 --> 00:45:12,160 exposure so that they're they're part of 1277 00:45:14,470 --> 00:45:13,520 the evidentiary pile 1278 00:45:16,790 --> 00:45:14,480 a few of them may have been 1279 00:45:17,510 --> 00:45:16,800 disinformation and may prove to be bogus 1280 00:45:19,030 --> 00:45:17,520 but yet 1281 00:45:20,710 --> 00:45:19,040 even they contributed i think to the 1282 00:45:24,710 --> 00:45:20,720 disclosure process 1283 00:45:26,710 --> 00:45:24,720 what you're seeing now is different uh 1284 00:45:28,150 --> 00:45:26,720 the as i said seti has an enormous 1285 00:45:31,670 --> 00:45:28,160 public relations problem 1286 00:45:33,990 --> 00:45:31,680 as disclosure approaches but so does the 1287 00:45:34,870 --> 00:45:34,000 military intelligence complex it's a 1288 00:45:39,430 --> 00:45:34,880 huge 1289 00:45:42,470 --> 00:45:39,440 public relations problem uh and 1290 00:45:44,710 --> 00:45:42,480 obviously they they want to 1291 00:45:46,790 --> 00:45:44,720 minimize that as much as possible 1292 00:45:47,510 --> 00:45:46,800 everybody wants that i mean nobody wants 1293 00:45:50,710 --> 00:45:47,520 to be 1294 00:45:53,829 --> 00:45:50,720 seen in the worst possible light and so 1295 00:45:55,670 --> 00:45:53,839 how do they get on board the train 1296 00:45:57,510 --> 00:45:55,680 because they can't just walk on down to 1297 00:46:00,470 --> 00:45:57,520 the station you know in their 1298 00:46:01,510 --> 00:46:00,480 in their uniforms and wearing their dod 1299 00:46:02,950 --> 00:46:01,520 badges and 1300 00:46:04,550 --> 00:46:02,960 cop on the train because a lot of 1301 00:46:07,109 --> 00:46:04,560 reporters are going to say that what 1302 00:46:08,390 --> 00:46:07,119 what's going on here so how do they get 1303 00:46:10,550 --> 00:46:08,400 on the train well i'll tell you how one 1304 00:46:12,150 --> 00:46:10,560 way they got on the train 1305 00:46:14,790 --> 00:46:12,160 they supported the creation of the to 1306 00:46:17,750 --> 00:46:14,800 the stars academy 1307 00:46:19,190 --> 00:46:17,760 that emerged out of the pentagon not 1308 00:46:20,710 --> 00:46:19,200 some hobbyist project 1309 00:46:22,710 --> 00:46:20,720 from a couple of guys that had retired 1310 00:46:25,030 --> 00:46:22,720 didn't have much to do 1311 00:46:26,390 --> 00:46:25,040 so that that organization that 1312 00:46:29,670 --> 00:46:26,400 non-governmental organization 1313 00:46:31,990 --> 00:46:29,680 ngo was literally created with support 1314 00:46:34,069 --> 00:46:32,000 of people in the pentagon so we could go 1315 00:46:35,190 --> 00:46:34,079 do things those people in the pentagon 1316 00:46:41,109 --> 00:46:35,200 could not do 1317 00:46:48,069 --> 00:46:44,790 endeavor to help 1318 00:46:50,309 --> 00:46:48,079 indirectly by proxy get the pentagon 1319 00:46:52,069 --> 00:46:50,319 on the disclosure train okay and that's 1320 00:46:53,829 --> 00:46:52,079 been operating now and doing a lot of 1321 00:46:55,190 --> 00:46:53,839 interesting things for three years 1322 00:46:57,190 --> 00:46:55,200 profound things and there's been a whole 1323 00:46:57,510 --> 00:46:57,200 bunch that's come from that so the issue 1324 00:47:04,230 --> 00:46:57,520 is 1325 00:47:06,790 --> 00:47:04,240 uh another way that the 1326 00:47:08,829 --> 00:47:06,800 military intelligence complex can 1327 00:47:12,069 --> 00:47:08,839 improve its public relations 1328 00:47:13,910 --> 00:47:12,079 is memos are going to pop up 1329 00:47:16,150 --> 00:47:13,920 something we hadn't seen oh there it is 1330 00:47:19,270 --> 00:47:16,160 oh didn't know that it'd be a facts here 1331 00:47:20,950 --> 00:47:19,280 a letter here a memo there you know a 1332 00:47:23,109 --> 00:47:20,960 testimony here 1333 00:47:24,069 --> 00:47:23,119 and occasionally a witness here and so 1334 00:47:25,510 --> 00:47:24,079 you just kind of have these little 1335 00:47:29,030 --> 00:47:25,520 things popping up 1336 00:47:31,109 --> 00:47:29,040 right emerging out of the the noise 1337 00:47:32,069 --> 00:47:31,119 of the massive military intelligence 1338 00:47:33,829 --> 00:47:32,079 complex 1339 00:47:35,510 --> 00:47:33,839 and each one of you with those things 1340 00:47:37,829 --> 00:47:35,520 not that not to interrupt steve but uh 1341 00:47:39,430 --> 00:47:37,839 you would you uh characterize uh these 1342 00:47:43,510 --> 00:47:39,440 occasional poppings up as 1343 00:47:46,870 --> 00:47:43,520 a sort of uh cya efforts 1344 00:47:47,990 --> 00:47:46,880 some might call it cya i would call it 1345 00:47:51,510 --> 00:47:48,000 public relations 1346 00:47:53,109 --> 00:47:51,520 okay uh meaning and why the reason why i 1347 00:47:56,470 --> 00:47:53,119 call it 1348 00:47:58,150 --> 00:47:56,480 cya kind of refers to illegal stuff 1349 00:48:00,790 --> 00:47:58,160 in other words i committed a crime now i 1350 00:48:02,549 --> 00:48:00,800 got to cover my my took us here 1351 00:48:03,990 --> 00:48:02,559 the as i've said many times the truth 1352 00:48:06,710 --> 00:48:04,000 embargo 1353 00:48:08,630 --> 00:48:06,720 however offensive one might find it was 1354 00:48:09,510 --> 00:48:08,640 a legal policy of the united states 1355 00:48:14,390 --> 00:48:09,520 government 1356 00:48:16,790 --> 00:48:14,400 is legal national security based and so 1357 00:48:18,870 --> 00:48:16,800 it's not that they're trying to cover 1358 00:48:21,430 --> 00:48:18,880 themselves because of illegal activities 1359 00:48:22,549 --> 00:48:21,440 they're trying to get seen in the best 1360 00:48:25,990 --> 00:48:22,559 light 1361 00:48:28,390 --> 00:48:26,000 because the policies they did follow 1362 00:48:30,230 --> 00:48:28,400 are objectionable to an awful lot of 1363 00:48:31,030 --> 00:48:30,240 people and were probably carried on too 1364 00:48:33,829 --> 00:48:31,040 long 1365 00:48:35,190 --> 00:48:33,839 but this is a matter of interpretation 1366 00:48:37,589 --> 00:48:35,200 all right in other words 1367 00:48:39,190 --> 00:48:37,599 some would say no some would say yes but 1368 00:48:42,230 --> 00:48:39,200 plenty will be not happy about it 1369 00:48:44,230 --> 00:48:42,240 and so they're trying to improve their 1370 00:48:47,349 --> 00:48:44,240 image their position 1371 00:48:48,069 --> 00:48:47,359 as we uh approach the finish line and 1372 00:48:50,630 --> 00:48:48,079 and and 1373 00:48:52,390 --> 00:48:50,640 and let's be clear all of these little 1374 00:48:54,470 --> 00:48:52,400 bubbling ups that i'm referring to 1375 00:48:59,670 --> 00:48:54,480 are advancing the progress and each one 1376 00:49:04,390 --> 00:49:02,870 and so it's that these memos and letters 1377 00:49:05,190 --> 00:49:04,400 and statements coming from this person 1378 00:49:06,549 --> 00:49:05,200 and that person 1379 00:49:09,510 --> 00:49:06,559 and of course the entire action of the 1380 00:49:10,230 --> 00:49:09,520 ttsa has advanced the process is speeded 1381 00:49:11,990 --> 00:49:10,240 it up 1382 00:49:13,510 --> 00:49:12,000 uh or you know definitely it helped it 1383 00:49:15,510 --> 00:49:13,520 move along in spite of the fact that 1384 00:49:16,470 --> 00:49:15,520 we're going through extremely difficult 1385 00:49:19,510 --> 00:49:16,480 times 1386 00:49:21,750 --> 00:49:19,520 which would normally shove the 1387 00:49:22,710 --> 00:49:21,760 uh any et issue way in the back of the 1388 00:49:24,470 --> 00:49:22,720 stove but 1389 00:49:26,069 --> 00:49:24,480 it's still pretty much near the front 1390 00:49:27,750 --> 00:49:26,079 front of the stove and so 1391 00:49:29,190 --> 00:49:27,760 it's a positive thing it's a good thing 1392 00:49:32,630 --> 00:49:29,200 i am not 1393 00:49:35,270 --> 00:49:32,640 i am totally cool with the 1394 00:49:37,109 --> 00:49:35,280 military intelligence community and to 1395 00:49:40,549 --> 00:49:37,119 some degree some politicians like 1396 00:49:44,069 --> 00:49:40,559 marco rubio getting on board 1397 00:49:47,829 --> 00:49:44,079 helping this train leave the station uh 1398 00:49:50,549 --> 00:49:47,839 we the fundamental goal is disclosure 1399 00:49:55,910 --> 00:49:50,559 not retribution 1400 00:49:57,510 --> 00:49:55,920 not legal actions not i told you so's 1401 00:49:59,349 --> 00:49:57,520 i'm going to put a big when disclosure 1402 00:50:01,589 --> 00:49:59,359 happens i'm putting a big sign 1403 00:50:02,950 --> 00:50:01,599 on my door so that every time i leave 1404 00:50:07,349 --> 00:50:02,960 the office i'll read it 1405 00:50:09,349 --> 00:50:07,359 it'll say i told you so's don't help 1406 00:50:10,790 --> 00:50:09,359 right so that's the goal is to get 1407 00:50:12,470 --> 00:50:10,800 disclosure i welcome 1408 00:50:14,069 --> 00:50:12,480 everybody on board i welcome any 1409 00:50:16,390 --> 00:50:14,079 witnesses to come forward 1410 00:50:17,910 --> 00:50:16,400 uh i welcome any media to get involved 1411 00:50:19,270 --> 00:50:17,920 and if you hadn't gotten involved before 1412 00:50:20,950 --> 00:50:19,280 it's okay 1413 00:50:22,950 --> 00:50:20,960 right now admittedly you may be saying 1414 00:50:26,470 --> 00:50:22,960 okay if you feel that way 1415 00:50:31,109 --> 00:50:26,480 why are you so hard on seti 1416 00:50:33,430 --> 00:50:31,119 because seti has not only held out 1417 00:50:35,109 --> 00:50:33,440 longer than any other organization on 1418 00:50:38,950 --> 00:50:35,119 this issue 1419 00:50:40,870 --> 00:50:38,960 when its fundamental reis on detroit 1420 00:50:42,870 --> 00:50:40,880 was dealing with the extraterrestrial 1421 00:50:44,790 --> 00:50:42,880 issue well i i think 1422 00:50:46,790 --> 00:50:44,800 i think where you're being a little too 1423 00:50:47,270 --> 00:50:46,800 hard on seti in general you're talking 1424 00:50:48,870 --> 00:50:47,280 about the 1425 00:50:50,870 --> 00:50:48,880 the seth shah stack involved 1426 00:50:58,549 --> 00:50:50,880 organization as compared with 1427 00:51:03,589 --> 00:51:01,030 there is a search for extraterrestrial 1428 00:51:05,190 --> 00:51:03,599 uh scientific endeavor that is broad and 1429 00:51:05,670 --> 00:51:05,200 is international involves a lot of 1430 00:51:07,829 --> 00:51:05,680 people 1431 00:51:09,030 --> 00:51:07,839 and then there is the city.org 1432 00:51:11,190 --> 00:51:09,040 organization 1433 00:51:13,030 --> 00:51:11,200 that seth shawstak works for look you're 1434 00:51:14,150 --> 00:51:13,040 right i i think i think it's important 1435 00:51:17,349 --> 00:51:14,160 to make that distinction 1436 00:51:19,910 --> 00:51:17,359 some people don't know that meaning 1437 00:51:21,510 --> 00:51:19,920 just the general idea of of et 1438 00:51:23,670 --> 00:51:21,520 intelligence and is it out there 1439 00:51:25,750 --> 00:51:23,680 might even include theorizing about 1440 00:51:27,589 --> 00:51:25,760 exobiology and what have you no i'm not 1441 00:51:29,829 --> 00:51:27,599 referring to that in general 1442 00:51:30,870 --> 00:51:29,839 i'm referring to the organization which 1443 00:51:33,190 --> 00:51:30,880 has had a number of 1444 00:51:34,069 --> 00:51:33,200 sort of incan in incarnations over the 1445 00:51:37,270 --> 00:51:34,079 years but yeah 1446 00:51:39,750 --> 00:51:37,280 the formal paid people 1447 00:51:41,430 --> 00:51:39,760 organized searching for extraterrestrial 1448 00:51:42,950 --> 00:51:41,440 signals when they damn well knew 1449 00:51:44,630 --> 00:51:42,960 the et's were already here and if you 1450 00:51:46,470 --> 00:51:44,640 wanted to talk to an e.t 1451 00:51:48,230 --> 00:51:46,480 go see your brother-in-law because he 1452 00:51:49,829 --> 00:51:48,240 probably was out up in one of the craft 1453 00:51:50,790 --> 00:51:49,839 last friday night on a regular 1454 00:51:52,710 --> 00:51:50,800 inspection 1455 00:51:53,910 --> 00:51:52,720 that's who i'm talking about and i've 1456 00:51:55,030 --> 00:51:53,920 been hard on that 1457 00:51:57,589 --> 00:51:55,040 right because i don't know if there's 1458 00:51:59,829 --> 00:51:57,599 any redemption there and also a lot of 1459 00:52:02,630 --> 00:51:59,839 money was thrown down the drain 1460 00:52:04,870 --> 00:52:02,640 uh but with respect to the military 1461 00:52:07,030 --> 00:52:04,880 intelligence complex 1462 00:52:08,630 --> 00:52:07,040 which for most of well all of my 1463 00:52:09,510 --> 00:52:08,640 lifetime has been the only thing 1464 00:52:12,549 --> 00:52:09,520 standing between 1465 00:52:15,349 --> 00:52:12,559 us and nuclear annihilation 1466 00:52:16,069 --> 00:52:15,359 and a very dangerous world people who 1467 00:52:19,270 --> 00:52:16,079 are 1468 00:52:21,270 --> 00:52:19,280 particularly you know that much 1469 00:52:22,870 --> 00:52:21,280 no i'm going to be very generous with 1470 00:52:26,230 --> 00:52:22,880 respect to journalists 1471 00:52:28,069 --> 00:52:26,240 generous right without question and by 1472 00:52:30,950 --> 00:52:28,079 and large the politicians 1473 00:52:32,549 --> 00:52:30,960 i mean they've got enough negative marks 1474 00:52:33,349 --> 00:52:32,559 on their report card i don't need to add 1475 00:52:35,910 --> 00:52:33,359 one more 1476 00:52:37,430 --> 00:52:35,920 um there has been some some instances of 1477 00:52:39,589 --> 00:52:37,440 great courage 1478 00:52:41,030 --> 00:52:39,599 uh and politicians have a lot on their 1479 00:52:44,069 --> 00:52:41,040 plate and i get that so 1480 00:52:46,630 --> 00:52:44,079 uh overall uh just uh 1481 00:52:48,309 --> 00:52:46,640 uh doubling back to politicians though 1482 00:52:49,910 --> 00:52:48,319 it still seems that that 1483 00:52:51,750 --> 00:52:49,920 the more things change the more they 1484 00:52:54,870 --> 00:52:51,760 stay the same they only 1485 00:52:56,790 --> 00:52:54,880 bring it up when specifically asked 1486 00:52:58,870 --> 00:52:56,800 they tend not to bring it up themselves 1487 00:53:01,510 --> 00:52:58,880 even in that marco rubio interview 1488 00:53:02,309 --> 00:53:01,520 uh the uh the miami reporter had to ask 1489 00:53:04,309 --> 00:53:02,319 rubio 1490 00:53:05,829 --> 00:53:04,319 about the ufo issue i mean he answered 1491 00:53:06,710 --> 00:53:05,839 fine you know know where he's there once 1492 00:53:07,990 --> 00:53:06,720 he was asked 1493 00:53:09,829 --> 00:53:08,000 but he would never have brought it up 1494 00:53:11,430 --> 00:53:09,839 unless he was asked at least 1495 00:53:13,670 --> 00:53:11,440 unless he had said something in 1496 00:53:15,750 --> 00:53:13,680 pre-interview hey ask me about the ufo 1497 00:53:19,510 --> 00:53:15,760 stuff i mean that's always possible 1498 00:53:20,950 --> 00:53:19,520 but otherwise that's how it came up 1499 00:53:23,670 --> 00:53:20,960 it only came out because he was asked 1500 00:53:25,030 --> 00:53:23,680 about of course naturally look 1501 00:53:26,549 --> 00:53:25,040 our own political system is 1502 00:53:28,870 --> 00:53:26,559 dysfunctional now it's a mess it should 1503 00:53:32,309 --> 00:53:28,880 be completely revamped 1504 00:53:35,510 --> 00:53:32,319 but when you in order to be a 1505 00:53:36,790 --> 00:53:35,520 a member of the congress you have to 1506 00:53:38,950 --> 00:53:36,800 spend anywhere between 1507 00:53:41,990 --> 00:53:38,960 a hundred thousand two hundred thousand 1508 00:53:45,589 --> 00:53:42,000 and a hundred million dollars 1509 00:53:47,109 --> 00:53:45,599 to get elected the two 1510 00:53:49,750 --> 00:53:47,119 senate races in georgia this is a 1511 00:53:51,430 --> 00:53:49,760 special case but the two senate races in 1512 00:53:54,870 --> 00:53:51,440 georgia 1513 00:53:55,510 --> 00:53:54,880 cost half a billion bucks 250 million 1514 00:53:57,670 --> 00:53:55,520 dollars 1515 00:53:59,030 --> 00:53:57,680 a race now a huge amount of this money 1516 00:54:01,190 --> 00:53:59,040 goes into the 1517 00:54:03,349 --> 00:54:01,200 media of in georgia and elsewhere right 1518 00:54:04,870 --> 00:54:03,359 so it's into the economy and people 1519 00:54:05,109 --> 00:54:04,880 getting paid it's getting moved around 1520 00:54:07,190 --> 00:54:05,119 and 1521 00:54:08,230 --> 00:54:07,200 i get that but but still you got to 1522 00:54:11,109 --> 00:54:08,240 raise it 1523 00:54:14,230 --> 00:54:11,119 so if you got to raise a million 10 20 1524 00:54:16,309 --> 00:54:14,240 30 40 million dollars to get elected 1525 00:54:17,990 --> 00:54:16,319 i mean you've got to please a whole lot 1526 00:54:19,990 --> 00:54:18,000 of people with money in their pockets 1527 00:54:22,150 --> 00:54:20,000 and their bank accounts 1528 00:54:24,309 --> 00:54:22,160 you're gonna the the the amount of 1529 00:54:25,910 --> 00:54:24,319 courage you're gonna be able to muster 1530 00:54:27,589 --> 00:54:25,920 to break ranks with anything is going to 1531 00:54:30,069 --> 00:54:27,599 be minimal and so 1532 00:54:31,670 --> 00:54:30,079 you end up with a with a with a campaign 1533 00:54:34,710 --> 00:54:31,680 financing system like this 1534 00:54:37,510 --> 00:54:34,720 you end up mostly with cowards you just 1535 00:54:38,710 --> 00:54:37,520 get ideological cowards or ideological 1536 00:54:42,069 --> 00:54:38,720 servants 1537 00:54:43,670 --> 00:54:42,079 and uh political cowards so don't expect 1538 00:54:45,430 --> 00:54:43,680 things to go well don't expect 1539 00:54:48,549 --> 00:54:45,440 innovation don't expect 1540 00:54:52,230 --> 00:54:48,559 you know the the challenging of 1541 00:54:54,630 --> 00:54:52,240 of uh of norms and protocols 1542 00:54:56,069 --> 00:54:54,640 so it's not just the e.t issue that they 1543 00:54:59,510 --> 00:54:56,079 won't address but the e.t 1544 00:55:02,470 --> 00:54:59,520 issue which is nonpartisan right 1545 00:55:04,549 --> 00:55:02,480 so it it's a little harder to sort of 1546 00:55:04,950 --> 00:55:04,559 back away because it's a highly partisan 1547 00:55:06,630 --> 00:55:04,960 issue 1548 00:55:08,549 --> 00:55:06,640 and that's that's one of the more 1549 00:55:10,630 --> 00:55:08,559 astonishing things about it 1550 00:55:12,069 --> 00:55:10,640 it's a universal thing but they still 1551 00:55:13,589 --> 00:55:12,079 have to back away 1552 00:55:15,270 --> 00:55:13,599 because the embargo has made it 1553 00:55:17,349 --> 00:55:15,280 dangerous for them to do that 1554 00:55:19,190 --> 00:55:17,359 and they got to raise 100 million bucks 1555 00:55:20,630 --> 00:55:19,200 and if i actually say anything positive 1556 00:55:22,950 --> 00:55:20,640 about the extraterrestrial issue 1557 00:55:24,710 --> 00:55:22,960 i may only get to raise 60 million bucks 1558 00:55:27,670 --> 00:55:24,720 in which case i won't get elected again 1559 00:55:29,829 --> 00:55:27,680 and being in the the the congress is the 1560 00:55:33,030 --> 00:55:29,839 only thing i can do 1561 00:55:35,030 --> 00:55:33,040 i can't do anything else and and i and i 1562 00:55:37,670 --> 00:55:35,040 love the perks and so forth and i just 1563 00:55:40,390 --> 00:55:37,680 can't give it up and i will say and do 1564 00:55:41,109 --> 00:55:40,400 anything to keep this job let me tell 1565 00:55:44,630 --> 00:55:41,119 you something 1566 00:55:45,990 --> 00:55:44,640 we don't fix that pretty soon 1567 00:55:47,430 --> 00:55:46,000 we're we're going to have a lot of 1568 00:55:49,030 --> 00:55:47,440 trouble getting getting getting it 1569 00:55:51,109 --> 00:55:49,040 together in this country so 1570 00:55:52,230 --> 00:55:51,119 let's hope that fixing that is also on 1571 00:55:54,710 --> 00:55:52,240 the agenda 1572 00:55:56,950 --> 00:55:54,720 of the uh the next administration you 1573 00:56:01,030 --> 00:55:56,960 did mention the to the stars academy 1574 00:56:02,309 --> 00:56:01,040 and they had some significant defections 1575 00:56:03,990 --> 00:56:02,319 recently i mean it was a 1576 00:56:05,349 --> 00:56:04,000 it's been a good three years and they've 1577 00:56:08,549 --> 00:56:05,359 been the prime catalyst 1578 00:56:11,349 --> 00:56:08,559 uh uh regarding that but you've got uh 1579 00:56:13,430 --> 00:56:11,359 uh three high-profile uh players uh 1580 00:56:15,990 --> 00:56:13,440 executives with that organization 1581 00:56:17,109 --> 00:56:16,000 and uh member of the advisory board uh 1582 00:56:19,990 --> 00:56:17,119 louie lozando 1583 00:56:20,390 --> 00:56:20,000 excuse me chris mellon and steve justice 1584 00:56:30,470 --> 00:56:20,400 uh 1585 00:56:33,030 --> 00:56:30,480 think it looks very good at all 1586 00:56:33,510 --> 00:56:33,040 you talked about uh investors losing 1587 00:56:36,789 --> 00:56:33,520 money 1588 00:56:39,510 --> 00:56:36,799 on uh the uh on various 1589 00:56:40,309 --> 00:56:39,520 seti programs uh you know i i don't see 1590 00:56:42,870 --> 00:56:40,319 any uh 1591 00:56:44,549 --> 00:56:42,880 profit down the road uh for investors 1592 00:56:45,910 --> 00:56:44,559 into the stars uh 1593 00:56:47,750 --> 00:56:45,920 what do you what did you make of all 1594 00:56:50,150 --> 00:56:47,760 that well i 1595 00:56:52,390 --> 00:56:50,160 i see it completely different frank okay 1596 00:56:54,230 --> 00:56:52,400 uh first of all i wasn't surprised by it 1597 00:56:57,829 --> 00:56:54,240 secondly i don't think you could call 1598 00:57:01,270 --> 00:56:57,839 those defections they're not defections 1599 00:57:04,390 --> 00:57:01,280 uh the two's the stars academy uh 1600 00:57:06,710 --> 00:57:04,400 the part of their their their 1601 00:57:07,670 --> 00:57:06,720 mission statement was to pursue a number 1602 00:57:09,750 --> 00:57:07,680 of things 1603 00:57:10,710 --> 00:57:09,760 entertainment some research and so forth 1604 00:57:12,549 --> 00:57:10,720 which they laid out 1605 00:57:14,789 --> 00:57:12,559 when they when they were founded in 1606 00:57:16,230 --> 00:57:14,799 their in their in their website 1607 00:57:18,069 --> 00:57:16,240 and in their financial documents and 1608 00:57:19,510 --> 00:57:18,079 they they created a public benefit 1609 00:57:20,870 --> 00:57:19,520 corporation and they raised 1610 00:57:22,789 --> 00:57:20,880 some money to two and a half million 1611 00:57:25,190 --> 00:57:22,799 bucks not a lot they 1612 00:57:26,630 --> 00:57:25,200 i think they fully expected to raise 10 1613 00:57:29,990 --> 00:57:26,640 times that 1614 00:57:31,589 --> 00:57:30,000 but the circumstances surrounding the 1615 00:57:33,270 --> 00:57:31,599 the uh emergence of the to the stars 1616 00:57:34,710 --> 00:57:33,280 academy did not turn out the way they 1617 00:57:36,710 --> 00:57:34,720 thought they would 1618 00:57:38,150 --> 00:57:36,720 and it turned bad actually and so they 1619 00:57:39,510 --> 00:57:38,160 they were limited to how much money they 1620 00:57:42,950 --> 00:57:39,520 could raise 1621 00:57:43,910 --> 00:57:42,960 uh and i i am quite comfortable in 1622 00:57:46,470 --> 00:57:43,920 saying 1623 00:57:47,750 --> 00:57:46,480 that knowing what i know is going down 1624 00:57:51,349 --> 00:57:47,760 uh i have 1625 00:57:53,270 --> 00:57:51,359 really great confidence in the 1626 00:57:55,270 --> 00:57:53,280 the financial success of the two the 1627 00:57:56,549 --> 00:57:55,280 stars academy and wish i had a bunch of 1628 00:57:58,870 --> 00:57:56,559 shares 1629 00:58:00,950 --> 00:57:58,880 but i don't and i wouldn't have bought 1630 00:58:03,349 --> 00:58:00,960 them if i had the money because i 1631 00:58:05,750 --> 00:58:03,359 as an activist i can't have a financial 1632 00:58:08,789 --> 00:58:05,760 interest in an entity that 1633 00:58:10,630 --> 00:58:08,799 tied to my my uh 1634 00:58:12,069 --> 00:58:10,640 mission statement and so forth so but 1635 00:58:14,150 --> 00:58:12,079 i'm not worried about that they're going 1636 00:58:17,430 --> 00:58:14,160 to do very well 1637 00:58:20,870 --> 00:58:17,440 so what has happened here here's how i 1638 00:58:24,309 --> 00:58:23,109 and again if someone doesn't have a 1639 00:58:25,990 --> 00:58:24,319 great knowledge 1640 00:58:28,230 --> 00:58:26,000 of the whole history of the ttsa and 1641 00:58:29,750 --> 00:58:28,240 what's going on for three years 1642 00:58:31,109 --> 00:58:29,760 i appreciate that they may go wait a 1643 00:58:32,470 --> 00:58:31,119 minute how you coming up with this and i 1644 00:58:33,109 --> 00:58:32,480 understand but i don't have time to go 1645 00:58:36,710 --> 00:58:33,119 through all that 1646 00:58:39,430 --> 00:58:36,720 i will on my going to do a podcast 1647 00:58:39,750 --> 00:58:39,440 podcast on tsa we're going to go through 1648 00:58:42,630 --> 00:58:39,760 it 1649 00:58:44,309 --> 00:58:42,640 tooth and nail but so here's the way to 1650 00:58:48,150 --> 00:58:44,319 look at it 1651 00:58:49,349 --> 00:58:48,160 the the pentagon supporters of this of 1652 00:58:50,870 --> 00:58:49,359 disclosure 1653 00:58:52,549 --> 00:58:50,880 the numbers of which we don't know but 1654 00:58:54,150 --> 00:58:52,559 they're enough that 1655 00:58:55,750 --> 00:58:54,160 the to the stars academy could could 1656 00:58:59,109 --> 00:58:55,760 exist and happen 1657 00:59:01,990 --> 00:58:59,119 uh created this uh helped to support 1658 00:59:03,750 --> 00:59:02,000 backed this ngo called the to the stars 1659 00:59:04,789 --> 00:59:03,760 academy of arts and sciences we call it 1660 00:59:06,870 --> 00:59:04,799 two stars academy 1661 00:59:07,829 --> 00:59:06,880 that's enough anything after that is is 1662 00:59:11,430 --> 00:59:07,839 excess 1663 00:59:12,950 --> 00:59:11,440 uh uh in order to do things that the 1664 00:59:14,630 --> 00:59:12,960 pentagon can't do 1665 00:59:16,230 --> 00:59:14,640 and so the to the stars academy could 1666 00:59:17,910 --> 00:59:16,240 take the gun camera footage 1667 00:59:19,510 --> 00:59:17,920 which the pentagon declassified to the 1668 00:59:20,710 --> 00:59:19,520 new york times but the guys in the 1669 00:59:23,829 --> 00:59:20,720 pentagon couldn't 1670 00:59:27,190 --> 00:59:23,839 you see what i'm saying right and so 1671 00:59:28,710 --> 00:59:27,200 off they go to essentially drive the 1672 00:59:31,990 --> 00:59:28,720 disclosure process 1673 00:59:33,910 --> 00:59:32,000 and it made sense the to the stars 1674 00:59:35,990 --> 00:59:33,920 academy 1675 00:59:37,430 --> 00:59:36,000 when it's announced to us we learn that 1676 00:59:41,190 --> 00:59:37,440 one 1677 00:59:43,670 --> 00:59:41,200 its ceo is a musician a rock guy 1678 00:59:44,309 --> 00:59:43,680 a 40 year old going on 30 year old rock 1679 00:59:46,630 --> 00:59:44,319 guy 1680 00:59:47,589 --> 00:59:46,640 who is uh you know got a high school 1681 00:59:49,589 --> 00:59:47,599 education 1682 00:59:51,270 --> 00:59:49,599 but a lifelong interest in the subject 1683 00:59:53,670 --> 00:59:51,280 who has a good deal of money 1684 00:59:54,950 --> 00:59:53,680 he's been researching himself and been 1685 00:59:56,950 --> 00:59:54,960 involved from time to time 1686 00:59:59,030 --> 00:59:56,960 while selling lots of records and is 1687 01:00:00,309 --> 00:59:59,040 well liked and certainly connected to 1688 01:00:02,950 --> 01:00:00,319 the millennials 1689 01:00:05,589 --> 01:00:02,960 um in other words he's the exact 1690 01:00:06,630 --> 01:00:05,599 opposite of a 30-year cia career officer 1691 01:00:09,670 --> 01:00:06,640 you know what i'm saying 1692 01:00:11,190 --> 01:00:09,680 yeah and uh his high profile was 1693 01:00:13,109 --> 01:00:11,200 able to get them some sort of uh 1694 01:00:15,510 --> 01:00:13,119 pre-publicity well 1695 01:00:17,270 --> 01:00:15,520 the general concept not just the 1696 01:00:19,829 --> 01:00:17,280 publicity it's the kind of publicity 1697 01:00:21,109 --> 01:00:19,839 in other words it's it's softened it's 1698 01:00:23,589 --> 01:00:21,119 softened the project 1699 01:00:26,230 --> 01:00:23,599 and then the project talks about books 1700 01:00:28,789 --> 01:00:26,240 and documentaries and entertainment 1701 01:00:30,630 --> 01:00:28,799 right so it's an information company as 1702 01:00:32,470 --> 01:00:30,640 well as a little some research 1703 01:00:34,069 --> 01:00:32,480 and the books are coming out like uh you 1704 01:00:36,230 --> 01:00:34,079 know secret machines 1705 01:00:37,829 --> 01:00:36,240 fiction is non-fiction uh our 1706 01:00:41,030 --> 01:00:37,839 non-fiction is fiction 1707 01:00:42,069 --> 01:00:41,040 again this is a fairly soft image it's 1708 01:00:44,630 --> 01:00:42,079 great 1709 01:00:46,710 --> 01:00:44,640 it it it it makes it a little easier for 1710 01:00:49,430 --> 01:00:46,720 for the public to embrace it 1711 01:00:51,750 --> 01:00:49,440 as opposed to a spin-off of the cia 1712 01:00:54,630 --> 01:00:51,760 filled with a bunch of high-profile 1713 01:00:56,630 --> 01:00:54,640 high non-disclosure guys right who were 1714 01:00:57,990 --> 01:00:56,640 just recently doing super classified 1715 01:01:00,069 --> 01:00:58,000 work for god knows who 1716 01:01:01,270 --> 01:01:00,079 and they formed this little cl clack of 1717 01:01:02,950 --> 01:01:01,280 people and they're going to 1718 01:01:04,870 --> 01:01:02,960 start telling us about the et's they 1719 01:01:08,150 --> 01:01:04,880 would have been savaged 1720 01:01:09,990 --> 01:01:08,160 okay so soft soft beginning all right 1721 01:01:13,349 --> 01:01:10,000 and then they move forward 1722 01:01:17,030 --> 01:01:13,359 history channel program comfortable 1723 01:01:20,309 --> 01:01:17,040 right not a bad venue 1724 01:01:21,510 --> 01:01:20,319 but not exactly cbs nbc news right 1725 01:01:23,510 --> 01:01:21,520 so they do that get some more 1726 01:01:25,510 --> 01:01:23,520 information out bring some witnesses 1727 01:01:27,030 --> 01:01:25,520 meanwhile melon goes up on the hill 1728 01:01:29,910 --> 01:01:27,040 private meetings 1729 01:01:31,270 --> 01:01:29,920 not publicized really a few members of 1730 01:01:32,150 --> 01:01:31,280 congress mentioned that they had been 1731 01:01:35,190 --> 01:01:32,160 briefed by some 1732 01:01:36,870 --> 01:01:35,200 by some people pilots usually mellon 1733 01:01:38,710 --> 01:01:36,880 probably maybe elizondo 1734 01:01:40,549 --> 01:01:38,720 and so these these go on for a long time 1735 01:01:43,109 --> 01:01:40,559 but they're they're off the record 1736 01:01:44,950 --> 01:01:43,119 no problem meanwhile witnesses are being 1737 01:01:46,870 --> 01:01:44,960 vetted by by elizondo 1738 01:01:49,109 --> 01:01:46,880 some of them are brought on the the show 1739 01:01:52,150 --> 01:01:49,119 on history channel unidentified 1740 01:01:54,309 --> 01:01:52,160 others are just put in a file 1741 01:01:56,630 --> 01:01:54,319 checked out military witnesses like the 1742 01:01:58,789 --> 01:01:56,640 pilots 1743 01:02:00,950 --> 01:01:58,799 seen and others significant witnesses to 1744 01:02:04,470 --> 01:02:00,960 be sure that's all gathered 1745 01:02:09,109 --> 01:02:04,480 and then we start to move towards the 1746 01:02:12,470 --> 01:02:09,119 end game all right and we start to 1747 01:02:14,230 --> 01:02:12,480 picture that uh not only when mark 1748 01:02:15,349 --> 01:02:14,240 warner comes out and says that he's been 1749 01:02:16,309 --> 01:02:15,359 briefed but then of course when mark 1750 01:02:18,630 --> 01:02:16,319 rubio 1751 01:02:20,549 --> 01:02:18,640 puts the wording into the intelligence 1752 01:02:22,950 --> 01:02:20,559 appropriations bill about getting 1753 01:02:23,990 --> 01:02:22,960 information and files which wasn't that 1754 01:02:25,430 --> 01:02:24,000 long ago 1755 01:02:27,029 --> 01:02:25,440 and then well it was a while ago but 1756 01:02:27,589 --> 01:02:27,039 then it does it doesn't get launched 1757 01:02:29,910 --> 01:02:27,599 until the 1758 01:02:31,750 --> 01:02:29,920 uh the act was uh the deadline does this 1759 01:02:33,589 --> 01:02:31,760 until the act was passed and signed 1760 01:02:35,109 --> 01:02:33,599 which was just a short while ago the 1761 01:02:36,150 --> 01:02:35,119 deadline is now out in june we get a 1762 01:02:38,549 --> 01:02:36,160 glimpse of that 1763 01:02:39,510 --> 01:02:38,559 but i'm i'm watching other tea leaves 1764 01:02:42,630 --> 01:02:39,520 i'm reading other 1765 01:02:44,150 --> 01:02:42,640 tea leaves and so forth and so i knew 1766 01:02:46,789 --> 01:02:44,160 was clear to me that they were getting 1767 01:02:50,390 --> 01:02:46,799 ready for hearings now 1768 01:02:50,789 --> 01:02:50,400 different situation if you're going to 1769 01:02:54,150 --> 01:02:50,799 go 1770 01:02:56,950 --> 01:02:54,160 and actually complete the setting up 1771 01:02:58,870 --> 01:02:56,960 and the conduction conducting hearings 1772 01:03:00,710 --> 01:02:58,880 in the house and senate 1773 01:03:03,029 --> 01:03:00,720 you don't want to be coming at the house 1774 01:03:04,549 --> 01:03:03,039 and senate as the to the stars academy 1775 01:03:06,230 --> 01:03:04,559 of arts and sciences 1776 01:03:09,510 --> 01:03:06,240 with the with

attended 1780 01:03:17,589 --> 01:03:17,119 he will go down in history tom believe 1781 01:03:20,150 --> 01:03:17,599 me 1782 01:03:21,270 --> 01:03:20,160 he played an extraordinary role but you 1783 01:03:23,190 --> 01:03:21,280 don't go 1784 01:03:24,309 --> 01:03:23,200 to the senate in the house with the two 1785 01:03:27,430 --> 01:03:24,319 stars academy 1786 01:03:27,910 --> 01:03:27,440 and so consequently the three most i 1787 01:03:30,470 --> 01:03:27,920 think 1788 01:03:31,510 --> 01:03:30,480 important players two very prominent one 1789 01:03:35,109 --> 01:03:31,520 in the background 1790 01:03:38,950 --> 01:03:35,119 of the initial ten now a total of twelve 1791 01:03:40,710 --> 01:03:38,960 some some switched out melon elizondo 1792 01:03:44,069 --> 01:03:40,720 and justice 1793 01:03:45,990 --> 01:03:44,079 justice because his background it uh at 1794 01:03:48,789 --> 01:03:46,000 lockheed i mean he represents the 1795 01:03:51,109 --> 01:03:48,799 the uh

01:05:24,309 --> 01:05:22,160 about 1840 01:05:25,589 --> 01:05:24,319 uh uh unhappiness within the 1841 01:05:27,750 --> 01:05:25,599 organization of how 1842 01:05:28,789 --> 01:05:27,760 certain things were run uh that type of 1843 01:05:32,549 --> 01:05:28,799 thing uh 1844 01:05:33,190 --> 01:05:32,559 understanding the internet is nothing 1845 01:05:35,510 --> 01:05:33,200 but talk 1846 01:05:37,349 --> 01:05:35,520 it's loaded with talk everybody's got a 1847 01:05:40,630 --> 01:05:37,359 theory anybody can put it out 1848 01:05:41,990 --> 01:05:40,640 and so i i really it takes a lot for me 1849 01:05:44,230 --> 01:05:42,000 to bite down 1850 01:05:46,630 --> 01:05:44,240 on anything coming through the social 1851 01:05:48,230 --> 01:05:46,640 media or even through emails are getting 1852 01:05:51,349 --> 01:05:48,240 passed around amongst colleagues 1853 01:05:52,710 --> 01:05:51,359 uh we have information overload uh and 1854 01:05:55,349 --> 01:05:52,720 everybody can play 1855 01:05:57,430 --> 01:05:55,359 uh and so i i i have been very good 1856 01:06:01,109 --> 01:05:57,440 about staying in the middle 1857 01:06:04,870 --> 01:06:01,119 right and moving forward okay and so 1858 01:06:08,549 --> 01:06:04,880 uh i i just like all i can say is talk 1859 01:06:10,150 --> 01:06:08,559 is talk uh if if theaters say ttsa puts 1860 01:06:11,670 --> 01:06:10,160 out a press release 1861 01:06:13,510 --> 01:06:11,680 saying that there's been serious issues 1862 01:06:14,309 --> 01:06:13,520 within the organization and so and so 1863 01:06:15,910 --> 01:06:14,319 and this and that 1864 01:06:17,349 --> 01:06:15,920 fine i'll pay attention to it other than 1865 01:06:18,870 --> 01:06:17,359 that now 1866 01:06:21,829 --> 01:06:18,880 let me ask you this uh what is it what 1867 01:06:25,029 --> 01:06:21,839 does jim semivan do for them 1868 01:06:29,109 --> 01:06:25,039 do you know specifically 1869 01:06:31,990 --> 01:06:29,119 again in order to they know 1870 01:06:34,069 --> 01:06:32,000 look they are a company operating with a 1871 01:06:35,510 --> 01:06:34,079 certain amount of public exposure 1872 01:06:37,190 --> 01:06:35,520 and they brought in a group of people 1873 01:06:38,230 --> 01:06:37,200 initially of which semi-van was one of 1874 01:06:41,670 --> 01:06:38,240 them 1875 01:06:45,029 --> 01:06:41,680 now he was cia that's a big deal 1876 01:06:46,710 --> 01:06:45,039 uh but as we know uh 1877 01:06:49,190 --> 01:06:46,720 and this is one of the the difficulties 1878 01:06:51,109 --> 01:06:49,200 that they face 1879 01:06:52,470 --> 01:06:51,119 everyone with the exception of tom 1880 01:06:55,190 --> 01:06:52,480 delong 1881 01:06:56,950 --> 01:06:55,200 that was part of the to the stars 1882 01:06:59,990 --> 01:06:56,960 academy team this amazing 1883 01:07:01,190 --> 01:07:00,000 ngo that suddenly emerged 1884 01:07:02,950 --> 01:07:01,200 essentially out of the military 1885 01:07:03,990 --> 01:07:02,960 intelligence complex i mean that's what 1886 01:07:06,150 --> 01:07:04,000 happened 1887 01:07:07,029 --> 01:07:06,160 every one of them had classified 1888 01:07:09,109 --> 01:07:07,039 statuses 1889 01:07:11,750 --> 01:07:09,119 with their government work every one of 1890 01:07:16,069 --> 01:07:11,760 them had non-disclosure agreements 1891 01:07:18,630 --> 01:07:16,079 and so on that basis alone 1892 01:07:20,309 --> 01:07:18,640 what they may what they may be intending 1893 01:07:21,750 --> 01:07:20,319 to do with that organization what they 1894 01:07:23,910 --> 01:07:21,760 are doing that organization could very 1895 01:07:25,270 --> 01:07:23,920 well simply not be talked about 1896 01:07:27,750 --> 01:07:25,280 and so they they're obviously going to 1897 01:07:29,029 --> 01:07:27,760 make a contribution and it may be that a 1898 01:07:32,470 --> 01:07:29,039 lot of what they're contributing 1899 01:07:35,190 --> 01:07:32,480 is related to a classified material 1900 01:07:36,470 --> 01:07:35,200 who knows uh but they have a team and 1901 01:07:38,150 --> 01:07:36,480 oftentimes when you launch an 1902 01:07:39,430 --> 01:07:38,160 organization like that you put together 1903 01:07:40,630 --> 01:07:39,440 a strong team that doesn't mean that 1904 01:07:42,950 --> 01:07:40,640 everybody's got a 1905 01:07:44,710 --> 01:07:42,960 an immediate job to do on day one but it 1906 01:07:47,270 --> 01:07:44,720 means that you have 1907 01:07:48,950 --> 01:07:47,280 uh the people that can take you where 1908 01:07:51,589 --> 01:07:48,960 you gotta go at some point 1909 01:07:53,430 --> 01:07:51,599 plus a lot of that is advisory in other 1910 01:07:57,029 --> 01:07:53,440 words you've got advisory and 1911 01:07:58,549 --> 01:07:57,039 more importantly remember the ttsa would 1912 01:08:01,670 --> 01:07:58,559 not exist if there wasn't 1913 01:08:03,349 --> 01:08:01,680 a reasonable amount of support within 1914 01:08:05,910 --> 01:08:03,359 the pentagon itself and the depart and 1915 01:08:08,230 --> 01:08:05,920 the military intelligence complex 1916 01:08:08,950 --> 01:08:08,240 that makes it possible for them to exist 1917 01:08:12,069 --> 01:08:08,960 otherwise 1918 01:08:12,789 --> 01:08:12,079 those within the mic that oppose any of 1919 01:08:15,829 --> 01:08:12,799 this 1920 01:08:17,669 --> 01:08:15,839 would have moved to stop it and so 1921 01:08:18,630 --> 01:08:17,679 they've got those people inside that are 1922 01:08:19,910 --> 01:08:18,640 backing them up 1923 01:08:21,669 --> 01:08:19,920 and you're gonna you're gonna want 1924 01:08:23,590 --> 01:08:21,679 people on your team that are connected 1925 01:08:25,349 --> 01:08:23,600 to those people that can communicate 1926 01:08:26,630 --> 01:08:25,359 with those people 1927 01:08:28,229 --> 01:08:26,640 and so some of your people are going to 1928 01:08:30,149 --> 01:08:28,239 be liaisons back into the military 1929 01:08:32,070 --> 01:08:30,159 intelligence complex 1930 01:08:34,550 --> 01:08:32,080 this is no simple deal this is 1931 01:08:36,630 --> 01:08:34,560 incredibly complex and a lot of people 1932 01:08:38,229 --> 01:08:36,640 want it to be simple and straightforward 1933 01:08:39,349 --> 01:08:38,239 and be able to understand it from day 1934 01:08:41,590 --> 01:08:39,359 one or they get upset 1935 01:08:42,709 --> 01:08:41,600 i understand that but the world is 1936 01:08:45,430 --> 01:08:42,719 complicated 1937 01:08:47,590 --> 01:08:45,440 things are not easy and we're this is 1938 01:08:50,390 --> 01:08:47,600 about as complicated as it gets 1939 01:08:52,550 --> 01:08:50,400 and so i invite people to be tolerant 1940 01:08:54,950 --> 01:08:52,560 understanding and patient 1941 01:08:58,309 --> 01:08:54,960 uh i am paying attention and we are 1942 01:09:01,669 --> 01:08:58,319 going where we're supposed to go 1943 01:09:02,950 --> 01:09:01,679 all right so uh anything else uh before 1944 01:09:04,630 --> 01:09:02,960 we wrap up uh is this 1945 01:09:06,789 --> 01:09:04,640 uh uh that's what you're seeing here at 1946 01:09:08,390 --> 01:09:06,799 some point that we'll get the report 1947 01:09:10,470 --> 01:09:08,400 at some point this year you're 1948 01:09:13,990 --> 01:09:10,480 predicting hearings 1949 01:09:16,470 --> 01:09:14,000 on the hill and uh and then 1950 01:09:18,309 --> 01:09:16,480 following up from that you're predicting 1951 01:09:20,470 --> 01:09:18,319 uh future president biden 1952 01:09:22,470 --> 01:09:20,480 will actually come forward and say uh 1953 01:09:25,349 --> 01:09:22,480 yeah we're we're convinced uh that 1954 01:09:26,149 --> 01:09:25,359 some of these ufos are e.t yeah yeah if 1955 01:09:27,430 --> 01:09:26,159 the hearings are 1956 01:09:28,709 --> 01:09:27,440 the ones we should have that they're 1957 01:09:29,590 --> 01:09:28,719 right if they're not just some show 1958 01:09:31,030 --> 01:09:29,600 thing 1959 01:09:32,709 --> 01:09:31,040 if they're the real deal and that means 1960 01:09:34,709 --> 01:09:32,719 they're gonna go on for weeks 1961 01:09:36,709 --> 01:09:34,719 uh yeah the disclosure is absolutely 1962 01:09:38,630 -->

bit more heated just out of 2011 01:11:24,709 --> 01:11:22,400 boredom than they should have 2012 01:11:25,750 --> 01:11:24,719 but by and large uh the social media has 2013 01:11:28,950 --> 01:11:25,760 been a a 2014 01:11:30,390 --> 01:11:28,960 godsend i think to the ufo community oh 2015 01:11:33,510 --> 01:11:30,400 yeah without the internet 2016 01:11:34,950 --> 01:11:33,520 and uh and social media as well the 2017 01:11:36,470 --> 01:11:34,960 disclosure process would have been 2018 01:11:38,950 --> 01:11:36,480 significantly slower 2019 01:11:40,709 --> 01:11:38,960 it's very powerful we just have to learn 2020 01:11:43,830 --> 01:11:40,719 how to live with it better 2021 01:11:45,669 --> 01:11:43,840 um and uh we will 2022 01:11:47,750 --> 01:11:45,679 it's a tool it's a tool you just have 2023 01:11:50,790 --> 01:11:47,760 yeah and the schools need to teach kids 2024 01:11:51,510 --> 01:11:50,800 early on what it is how it works and so 2025 01:11:53,750 --> 01:11:51,520 forth 2026 01:11:55,750 --> 01:11:53,760 uh but for now yeah it's going to be 2027 01:11:57,750 --> 01:11:55,760 it's a it's the wild west 2028 01:11:58,870 --> 01:11:57,760 it's the electronic wild west of our 2029 01:12:00,550 --> 01:11:58,880 time uh 2030 01:12:02,550 --> 01:12:00,560 and eventually the wild west was tamed 2031 01:12:03,270 --> 01:12:02,560 as you know and the internet i think 2032 01:12:06,550 --> 01:12:03,280 will be tame 2033 01:12:10,470 --> 01:12:06,560 not not how would you say censored 2034 01:12:13,189 --> 01:12:10,480 controlled we don't want that not i'll 2035 01:12:14,790 --> 01:12:13,199 i'll live i'll live with a little uh 2036 01:12:18,149 --> 01:12:14,800 raggedness and uh even 2037 01:12:20,310 --> 01:12:18,159 some nastiness rather than than being uh 2038 01:12:24,790 --> 01:12:20,320 controlled or constrained in some way 2039 01:12:28,950 --> 01:12:27,189 there's nothing surprising about this 2040 01:12:30,870 --> 01:12:28,960 you if you were to take a full page out 2041 01:12:31,830 --> 01:12:30,880 of the new york times totally slandering 2042 01:12:35,030 --> 01:12:31,840 somebody 2043 01:12:36,709 --> 01:12:35,040 with false statements and so forth the 2044 01:12:37,990 --> 01:12:36,719 the times probably wouldn't print it 2045 01:12:39,669 --> 01:12:38,000 yeah they wouldn't print it because they 2046 01:12:41,110 --> 01:12:39,679 have that option but if they did print 2047 01:12:41,590 --> 01:12:41,120 it you'd get sued for a whole lot of 2048 01:12:43,669 --> 01:12:41,600 money 2049 01:12:46,310 --> 01:12:43,679 and so this idea that you can say 2050 01:12:47,750 --> 01:12:46,320 anything do anything and it's cool no 2051 01:12:49,110 --> 01:12:47,760 it may not be cool and if it's not 2052 01:12:50,470 --> 01:12:49,120 there's going to be a price to be paid 2053 01:12:52,149 --> 01:12:50,480 but that's the way it's always been 2054 01:12:53,350 --> 01:12:52,159 there's nothing new about that it's just 2055 01:12:55,910 --> 01:12:53,360 now more players 2056 01:12:57,830 --> 01:12:55,920 we have more players on the field right 2057 01:12:59,990 --> 01:12:57,840 so it's it's it's tough 2058 01:13:01,669 --> 01:13:00,000 and a lot of people have been harmed but 2059 01:13:02,550 --> 01:13:01,679 yet there's tremendous power and good 2060 01:13:05,189 --> 01:13:02,560 here 2061 01:13:06,630 --> 01:13:05,199 and so what can i say you you do your 2062 01:13:08,229 --> 01:13:06,640 best you work forward and the next 2063 01:13:10,950 --> 01:13:08,239 generation i'm sure we'll 2064 01:13:12,550 --> 01:13:10,960 we'll do better at this than we have i 2065 01:13:14,790 --> 01:13:12,560 think so and i just 2066 01:13:15,750 --> 01:13:14,800 i don't know when i was a kid uh going 2067 01:13:18,790 --> 01:13:15,760 to school 2068 01:13:19,990 --> 01:13:18,800 back in the last century now um you know 2069 01:13:21,830 --> 01:13:20,000 we 2070 01:13:23,510 --> 01:13:21,840 used to hear uh don't believe everything 2071 01:13:25,510 --> 01:13:23,520 you read you don't believe everything 2072 01:13:26,149 --> 01:13:25,520 you read do you almost dismissively you 2073 01:13:29,189 --> 01:13:26,159 know 2074 01:13:32,229 --> 01:13:29,199 and uh that that's uh that's an old 2075 01:13:33,270 --> 01:13:32,239 uh bromide that seems to have uh uh 2076 01:13:34,870 --> 01:13:33,280 faded away 2077 01:13:36,310 --> 01:13:34,880 people don't use that anymore that was 2078 01:13:37,750 --> 01:13:36,320 that was a pejorative you don't believe 2079 01:13:42,070 --> 01:13:37,760 everything you read do you 2080 01:13:45,110 --> 01:13:42,080 yeah you remember that there was a time 2081 01:13:47,270 --> 01:13:45,120 if you want to get a publish a book you 2082 01:13:49,430 --> 01:13:47,280 you had to go to a publisher 2083 01:13:50,790 --> 01:13:49,440 they fact checked it they edited it 2084 01:13:54,630 --> 01:13:50,800 right it was a difficult 2085 01:13:55,990 --> 01:13:54,640 process people would go wow okay and 2086 01:13:57,270 --> 01:13:56,000 they'd read this book and they realized 2087 01:13:58,870 --> 01:13:57,280 what it had gone through 2088 01:14:01,110 --> 01:13:58,880 and they're thinking okay that gives me 2089 01:14:03,990 --> 01:14:01,120 some confidence that there is some 2090 01:14:04,709 --> 01:14:04,000 uh legitimacy and factuality here well 2091 01:14:07,270 --> 01:14:04,719 now 2092 01:14:09,430 --> 01:14:07,280 guess what a 17 year old kid can 2093 01:14:12,070 --> 01:14:09,440 self-publish a book that looks just as 2094 01:14:12,790 --> 01:14:12,080 is as cool as a book published 50 60 2095 01:14:14,470 --> 01:14:12,800 years ago 2096 01:14:16,229 --> 01:14:14,480 and put it out and the whole thing could 2097 01:14:19,350 --> 01:14:16,239 be nonsense hey 2098 01:14:20,070 --> 01:14:19,360 it's in the democracy of speech has 2099 01:14:22,630 --> 01:14:20,080 never been 2100 01:14:24,950 --> 01:14:22,640 broader but philosophers have been 2101 01:14:27,669 --> 01:14:24,960 telling us for centuries millennia 2102 01:14:28,790 --> 01:14:27,679 that the dem that pure unadulterated 2103 01:14:31,910 --> 01:14:28,800 democracy 2104 01:14:34,630 --> 01:14:31,920 is a difficult path filled with 2105 01:14:35,669 --> 01:14:34,640 many uh potholes many many uh 2106 01:14:39,510 --> 01:14:35,679 treacherous 2107 01:14:43,510 --> 01:14:39,520 uh uh paths so we're learning that now 2108 01:14:46,950 --> 01:14:43,520 we're working with it uh and ultimately 2109 01:14:50,149 --> 01:14:46,960 and i'll end with this the absolute 2110 01:14:52,229 --> 01:14:50,159 solution to uh or rather 2111 01:14:53,510 --> 01:14:52,239 the path we need to take in order to 2112 01:14:55,669 --> 01:14:53,520 live in a social 2113 01:14:56,630 --> 01:14:55,679 media world with the mass communications 2114 01:14:59,669 --> 01:14:56,640 we have 2115 01:15:02,790 --> 01:14:59,679 and be able to benefit from it and 2116 01:15:06,390 --> 01:15:02,800 be minimally damaged is a decent 2117 01:15:08,870 --> 01:15:06,400 education and so the every nation of the 2118 01:15:10,950 --> 01:15:08,880 world has got to make a decision 2119 01:15:13,350 --> 01:15:10,960 are we going to create a decent 2120 01:15:14,790 --> 01:15:13,360 education for every one of our citizens 2121 01:15:16,870 --> 01:15:14,800 or are you just going to keep building 2122 01:15:19,189 --> 01:15:16,880 more aircraft carriers 2123 01:15:20,070 --> 01:15:19,199 so that's a decision that remains to be 2124 01:15:21,910 --> 01:15:20,080 made 2125 01:15:23,590 --> 01:15:21,920 uh but that's part of what's going to 2126 01:15:24,870 --> 01:15:23,600 have to happen frank thanks so much for 2127 01:15:26,070 --> 01:15:24,880 having me absolutely absolutely 2128 01:15:27,430 --> 01:15:26,080 absolutely and uh yeah 2129 01:15:29,910 --> 01:15:27,440 just in closing i don't know if you had 2130 01:15:31,510 --> 01:15:29,920 the chance to read frank milburn's paper 2131 01:15:33,910 --> 01:15:31,520 that was published over at the uh the 2132 01:15:36,229 --> 01:15:33,920 big and sadat center he talked about 2133 01:15:38,310 --> 01:15:36,239 a little bit about how analysts uh 2134 01:15:41,030 --> 01:15:38,320 professional analysts look at uh 2135 01:15:43,350 --> 01:15:41,040 information and uh decide in terms of 2136 01:15:44,950 --> 01:15:43,360 any kind of uh intelligence briefings uh 2137 01:15:46,790 --> 01:15:44,960 uh they look at the source they look at 2138 01:15:48,630 --> 01:15:46,800 the information included i thought 2139 01:15:50,390 --> 01:15:48,640 i thought it was a very interesting and 2140 01:15:51,110 --> 01:15:50,400 it's nice to have a guy like that in the 2141 01:15:53,189 --> 01:15:51,120 field 2142 01:15:55,430 --> 01:15:53,199 because yeah i mean they literally have 2143 01:15:56,550 --> 01:15:55,440 a a little bit of a formula when looking 2144 01:15:58,070 --> 01:15:56,560 at this sort of thing 2145 01:15:59,990 --> 01:15:58,080 and that's the kind of thing i think 2146 01:16:00,790 --> 01:16:00,000 that we need more of in every field i 2147 01:16:04,790 --> 01:16:00,800 thought that 2148 01:16:06,550 --> 01:16:04,800 paper obviously the ufo stuff was 2149 01:16:08,390 --> 01:16:06,560 uh you know it was a lot of stuff that i 2150 01:16:10,149 --> 01:16:08,400 already knew it that obviously uh the 2151 01:16:11,910 --> 01:16:10,159 the target audience wasn't uh 2152 01:16:13,750 --> 01:16:11,920 people like me or most of our listeners 2153 01:16:14,470 --> 01:16:13,760 are you it was people who are relatively 2154 01:16:16,709 --> 01:16:14,480 new to the 2155 01:16:18,310 --> 01:16:16,719 uh to the field but i thought uh that 2156 01:16:21,430 --> 01:16:18,320 was very interesting and it's 2157 01:16:24,149 --> 01:16:21,440 good to have again because of the 2158 01:16:25,669 --> 01:16:24,159 uh because of the internet that we have 2159 01:16:28,709 --> 01:16:25,679 access to that paper 2160 01:16:31,910 --> 01:16:28,719 and uh we can read it and uh we can read 2161 01:16:33,030 --> 01:16:31,920 uh yeah what he came up with as far as 2162 01:16:34,870 --> 01:16:33,040 the ufo stuff but 2163 01:16:37,189 --> 01:16:34,880 again more importantly than that the 2164 01:16:37,910 --> 01:16:37,199 perspective through which he looks at it 2165 01:16:40,229 --> 01:16:37,920 and i thought 2166 01:16:42,709 --> 01:16:40,239 i thought that was a another nice little 2167 01:16:45,030 --> 01:16:42,719 uh another nice little development since 2168 01:16:46,950 --> 01:16:45,040 uh the last time we're on 2169 01:16:48,070 --> 01:16:46,960 we need to remind ourselves occasionally 2170 01:16:51,430 --> 01:16:48,080 that it was not 2171 01:16:52,149 --> 01:16:51,440 that long ago that mark zuckerberg was a 2172 01:16:54,550 --> 01:16:52,159 geek 2173 01:16:55,430 --> 01:16:54,560 in a harvard dorm room who couldn't get 2174 01:16:57,430 --> 01:16:55,440 a date 2175 01:16:58,470 --> 01:16:57,440 there you go it hasn't been that long 2176 01:17:00,070 --> 01:16:58,480 ago and so 2177 01:17:02,550 --> 01:17:00,080 we need to give ourselves a little bit 2178 01:17:05,189 --> 01:17:02,560 of slack if we're struggling 2179 01:17:06,070 --> 01:17:05,199 with this thing that just exploded into 2180 01:17:10,070 --> 01:17:06,080 our life 2181 01:17:12,630 --> 01:17:10,080 overnight uh i'd be totally shocked 2182 01:17:14,229 --> 01:17:12,640 if it wasn't driving us around the bench 2183 01:17:15,030 --> 01:17:14,239 by the same token i was thinking about 2184 01:17:16,870 --> 01:17:15,040 this 2185 01:17:18,870 --> 01:17:16,880 i'd i've been working with computers 2186 01:17:21,350 --> 01:17:18,880 since you know god 2187 01:17:22,390 --> 01:17:21,360 through work uh the late 70s into the 2188 01:17:24,709 --> 01:17:22,400 early 80s 2189 01:17:26,470 --> 01:17:24,719 i was a little bit late to the game in 2190 01:17:28,310 --> 01:17:26,480 terms of buying a computer 2191 01:17:30,550 --> 01:17:28,320 for the home simply because i always 2192 01:17:31,270 --> 01:17:30,560 viewed it as a work tool and the idea of 2193 01:17:32,950 --> 01:17:31,280 having 2194 01:17:35,030 --> 01:17:32,960 a computer in the home was like i don't 2195 01:17:35,910 --> 01:17:35,040 want to work in my house you know i i do 2196 01:17:38,870 --> 01:17:35,920 that at work 2197 01:17:40,229 --> 01:17:38,880 so it wasn't until uh 2000 that i 2198 01:17:40,950 --> 01:17:40,239 actually bought my first in-home 2199 01:17:43,270 --> 01:17:40,960 computer 2200 01:17:44,470 --> 01:17:43,280 i got on the internet at that point but 2201 01:17:46,709 --> 01:17:44,480 you know i'm 60 2202 01:17:48,390 --> 01:17:46,719 and that was 20 years ago already you 2203 01:17:49,350 --> 01:17:48,400 know so that's a third of my life now 2204 01:17:51,270 --> 01:17:49,360 and i'm not a kid 2205 01:17:52,630 --> 01:17:51,280 that's a third of my life where you know 2206 01:17:55,990 --> 01:17:52,640 we're in this world so 2207 01:17:57,750 --> 01:17:56,000 it is moving forward and uh uh yeah
