00:04:29,680 a well-known ufologist who was also a 121 00:04:33,909 --> 00:04:30,720 legend 122 00:04:35,749 --> 00:04:33,919 um regarding the ufo slash et topic and 123 00:04:37,749 --> 00:04:35,759 he resided in fredericton 124 00:04:40,790 --> 00:04:37,759 new brunswick canada we all missed him 125 00:04:43,270 --> 00:04:40,800 dearly i wanted to ask you kathleen 126 00:04:44,310 --> 00:04:43,280 when was the very first time you met 127 00:04:48,070 --> 00:04:44,320 stanton 128 00:04:50,230 --> 00:04:48,080 and in addition to that aside from 129 00:04:52,230 --> 00:04:50,240 when you first met him did you know when 130 00:04:54,230 --> 00:04:52,240 you met him you would become such close 131 00:04:57,510 --> 00:04:54,240 friends 132 00:04:59,270 --> 00:04:57,520 i met him for the first time i believe 133 00:05:03,749 --> 00:04:59,280 it was in december 134 00:05:06,469 --> 00:05:03,759 of 1971. i graduated from the university 135 00:05:09,990 --> 00:05:06,479 of new hampshire in 1971 136 00:05:12,950 --> 00:05:10,000 and it was 137 00:05:13,909 --> 00:05:12,960 a year before we went to cincinnati for 138 00:05:17,110 --> 00:05:13,919 graduate work 139 00:05:20,469 --> 00:05:17,120 so i i believe that 140 00:05:23,350 --> 00:05:20,479 i attended stanton's lecture he was 141 00:05:24,469 --> 00:05:23,360 billing himself as the flying saucer 142 00:05:27,029 --> 00:05:24,479 physicist 143 00:05:27,670 --> 00:05:27,039 i see in his records that it that he 144 00:05:32,070 --> 00:05:27,680 spoke at 145 00:05:33,510 --> 00:05:32,080 unh in 1971 so i think that that was the 146 00:05:36,950 --> 00:05:33,520 first time 147 00:05:40,710 --> 00:05:36,960 i met him but i only began 148 00:05:45,110 --> 00:05:40,720 to follow his work 149 00:05:48,550 --> 00:05:45,120 probably in the 1980s 150 00:05:52,710 --> 00:05:48,560 when i saw him on television 151 00:05:56,309 --> 00:05:52,720 he had investigated the roswell crash 152 00:06:00,230 --> 00:05:56,319 and he was speaking at 153 00:06:04,230 --> 00:06:00,240 lectures i began to attend 154 00:06:09,029 --> 00:06:04,240 conferences in the 1990s 155 00:06:12,469 --> 00:06:09,039 and so uh that's when i became a big fan 156 00:06:14,870 --> 00:06:12,479 of stanton i liked him because he was a 157 00:06:16,150 --> 00:06:14,880 nuclear physicist i knew he was being 158 00:06:19,189 --> 00:06:16,160 scientific 159 00:06:23,029 --> 00:06:19,199 uh he was an upstanding 160 00:06:26,150 --> 00:06:23,039 man he was meticulous in his research so 161 00:06:27,590 -->

point so 165 00:06:38,230 --> 00:06:35,280 uh i was very impressed with 166 00:06:39,350 --> 00:06:38,240 stanton and he was also very very funny 167 00:06:42,550 --> 00:06:39,360 he always 168 00:06:45,909 --> 00:06:42,560 injected humor into his lectures so 169 00:06:48,790 --> 00:06:45,919 whenever i went to ufo conferences 170 00:06:50,309 --> 00:06:48,800 i made sure that i went to

00:13:24,959 did a chi-square analysis they 323 00:13:29,269 --> 00:13:26,800 categorized them into different 324 00:13:30,310 --> 00:13:29,279 categories conventional categories such 325 00:13:34,150 --> 00:13:30,320 as 326 00:13:37,590 --> 00:13:34,160 aircraft balloons birds 327 00:13:38,550 --> 00:13:37,600 psychological phenomena hoaxes that sort 328 00:13:43,829 --> 00:13:38,560 of thing 329 00:13:47,509 --> 00:13:43,839 in the end 26.94 330 00:13:50,230 --> 00:13:47,519 of those cases could not be identified 331 00:13:51,030 --> 00:13:50,240 as anything conventional they did 332 00:13:54,310 --> 00:13:51,040 another one 333 00:13:57,430 --> 00:13:54,320 in 1955 it was done 334 00:13:58,790 --> 00:13:57,440 at the prestigious battelle memorial 335 00:14:03,350 --> 00:13:58,800

00:14:13,910 --> 00:14:12,880 do a chi-square analysis what they 340 00:14:17,189 --> 00:14:13,920 discovered 341 00:14:21,189 --> 00:14:17,199 in all of those cases 21 342 00:14:23,990 --> 00:14:21,199 and a half percent were true unknowns 343 00:14:25,189 --> 00:14:24,000 and in the chi-square analysis they 344 00:14:28,230 --> 00:14:25,199 discovered 345 00:14:29,269 --> 00:14:28,240 that the longer the sighting the more 346 00:14:32,710 --> 00:14:29,279 reliable 347 00:14:37,750 --> 00:14:32,720 the witness the more likely it was 348 00:14:40,470 --> 00:14:37,760 to be unidentified and a true unknown 349 00:14:40,949 --> 00:14:40,480 yeah just uh really quick in stanton's 350 00:14:43,590 --> 00:14:40,959 book 351 00:14:44,310 --> 00:14:43,600 about the majestic 12

don't know if you're aware of that 359 00:15:00,790 --> 00:14:59,199 or not but uh i thought that was pretty 360 00:15:03,110 --> 00:15:00,800 interesting 361 00:15:05,350 --> 00:15:03,120 told me

426 00:17:46,870 --> 00:17:42,880 the phone 427 00:17:49,990 --> 00:17:46,880 with betty and betty was telling her 428 00:17:51,350 --> 00:17:50,000 that the craft had come so close that 429 00:17:53,510 --> 00:17:51,360 she and barney 430 00:17:55,430 --> 00:17:53,520 uh were worried that they might have 431 00:17:57,190 --> 00:17:55,440 been contaminated 432 00:17:58,470 --> 00:17:57,200 and so we had a neighbor who was a 433 00:18:01,510 --> 00:17:58,480 physicist 434 00:18:04,070 --> 00:18:01,520 and she asked my mother to call the 435 00:18:07,430 --> 00:18:04,080 neighbor to see what he would suggest 436 00:18:09,909 --> 00:18:07,440 they had already taken long showers 437 00:18:13,510 --> 00:18:09,919 and but they wanted to know if there was 438 00:18:16,630 --> 00:18:13,520 anything else that they should look for 439 00:18:18,549 --> 00:18:16,640 strangely enough that physicist 440 00:18:19,990 --> 00:18:18,559 instead of talking about a geiger 441 00:18:23,029 --> 00:18:20,000 counter 442 00:18:24,070 --> 00:18:23,039 said go out to the car and see how the 443 00:18:26,870 --> 00:18:24,080 needle reacts 444 00:18:28,710 --> 00:18:26,880 on a compass now you know that if you 445 00:18:31,110 --> 00:18:28,720 put it up by the battery 446 00:18:33,590 --> 00:18:31,120 certainly the needle is going to react 447 00:18:36,870 --> 00:18:33,600 to the magnetic field 448 00:18:39,750 --> 00:18:36,880 but she started on the side of the car 449 00:18:40,549 --> 00:18:39,760 and she went to the back of the car and 450 00:18:43,590 --> 00:18:40,559 there 451 00:18:45,190 --> 00:18:43,600 were shiny spots on the trunk of the car 452 00:18:48,470 --> 00:18:45,200 that hadn't been there 453 00:18:51,750 --> 00:18:48,480 the previous day and when she placed 454 00:18:54,470 --> 00:18:51,760 the compass over those spots 455 00:18:56,070 --> 00:18:54,480 the needle would whirl but when she 456 00:18:59,350 --> 00:18:56,080 moved it away 457 00:19:03,510 --> 00:18:59,360 uh the needle dropped down so 458 00:19:09,430 --> 00:19:06,789 and uh is the the 459 00:19:10,630 --> 00:19:09,440 there was sort of a process uh by which 460 00:19:12,710 --> 00:19:10,640 uh they became that 461 00:19:14,789 --> 00:19:12,720 they came to understand that uh 462 00:19:15,190 --> 00:19:14,799 something very unusual happened to them 463 00:19:17,909 --> 00:19:15,200 it 464 00:19:19,350 --> 00:19:17,919 didn't all come back to them right away 465 00:19:20,070 --> 00:19:19,360 uh could you tell us a little bit about 466 00:19:23,029 --> 00:19:20,080 that because 467 00:19:24,870 --> 00:19:23,039 there was uh some uh regressive hypnosis 468 00:19:28,070 --> 00:19:24,880 involved if i recall correctly 469 00:19:29,430 --> 00:19:28,080 and so there was sort of a process 470 00:19:31,350 --> 00:19:29,440 in order for them to get the full 471 00:19:35,830 --> 00:19:31,360 understanding of what happened 472 00:19:39,190 --> 00:19:35,840 yes there absolutely was initially 473 00:19:42,710 --> 00:19:39,200 barney had full recall of observing 474 00:19:46,230 --> 00:19:42,720 the craft as did betty at close range 475 00:19:48,549 --> 00:19:46,240 betty from 200 feet above their vehicle 476 00:19:51,110 --> 00:19:48,559 bonnie got out of the car looked at it 477 00:19:54,070 --> 00:19:51,120 through binoculars stepped back 478 00:19:55,909 --> 00:19:54,080 and when he did it shifted to an 479 00:19:58,870 --> 00:19:55,919 adjacent field and descended 480 00:20:00,950 --> 00:19:58,880 even lower to about 100 feet in the air 481 00:20:02,870 --> 00:20:00,960 and 50 feet from where barney was 482 00:20:06,390 --> 00:20:02,880 standing 483 00:20:08,630 --> 00:20:06,400 so he in the original report 484 00:20:12,070 --> 00:20:08,640 to nycap the national investigations 485 00:20:15,830 --> 00:20:12,080 committee on aerial phenomena 486 00:20:19,590 --> 00:20:15,840 he and betty wrote that he had observed 487 00:20:22,710 --> 00:20:19,600 figures dressed in black shiny uniforms 488 00:20:25,990 --> 00:20:22,720 looking out at him as he was looking 489 00:20:26,789 --> 00:20:26,000 up through binoculars and that they were 490 00:20:29,830 --> 00:20:26,799 looking 491 00:20:32,870 --> 00:20:29,840 for a qualified hypnotist 492 00:20:33,430 --> 00:20:32,880 because barney had developed a mental 493 00:20:37,110 --> 00:20:33,440 block 494 00:20:37,909 --> 00:20:37,120 at that point he'd become terribly 495 00:20:40,310 --> 00:20:37,919 fearful 496 00:20:41,190 --> 00:20:40,320 pulled the binoculars from his eyes ran 497 00:20:43,270 --> 00:20:41,200 back to the car 498 00:20:44,870 --> 00:20:43,280 screaming to betty that they were going 499 00:20:47,430 --> 00:20:44,880 to be captured 500 00:20:48,710 --> 00:20:47,440 they wrote about a series of code-like 501 00:20:50,710 --> 00:20:48,720 buzzing sounds 502 00:20:53,029 --> 00:20:50,720 that were striking the trunk of

force 506 00:21:01,669 --> 00:21:00,000 the day after when they called the air 507 00:21:06,630 --> 00:21:01,679 force but 508 00:21:10,310 --> 00:21:06,640 to make a project blue book report but 509 00:21:13,350 --> 00:21:10,320 that's only because barney thought that 510 00:21:15,750 --> 00:21:13,360 he would be laughed at they did give the 511 00:21:19,190 --> 00:21:15,760 information about the craft 512 00:21:21,590 --> 00:21:19,200 that when it was so low 513 00:21:22,870 --> 00:21:21,600 it was as large as a dinner plate at 514 00:21:25,029 --> 00:21:22,880 arm's length 515 00:21:26,470 --> 00:21:25,039 they talked about the buzzing sounds on 516 00:21:30,149 --> 00:21:26,480 the trunk of the car 517 00:21:35,029 --> 00:21:30,159 that sort of thing to the air force so 518 00:21:41,430 --> 00:21:38,310 barney wanted to forget about this he 519 00:21:44,390 --> 00:21:41,440 he said to betty don't tell anyone 520 00:21:46,310 --> 00:21:44,400 no good can come of this let's just 521 00:21:47,990 --> 00:21:46,320 forget about it betty 522 00:21:49,830 --> 00:21:48,000 uh even though there was physical 523 00:21:52,070 --> 00:21:49,840 evidence on his shoes they were so 524 00:21:53,190 --> 00:21:52,080 deeply scraped on the toes he had to buy 525 00:21:55,990 --> 00:21:53,200 new shoes 526 00:21:58,149 --> 00:21:56,000 but betty would not forget about it she 527 00:22:00,390 --> 00:21:58,159 went to the library 528 00:22:01,990 --> 00:22:00,400 checked out the first book on ufos that 529 00:22:05,909 --> 00:22:02,000 she had ever read 530 00:22:09,510 -->

00:22:16,080 prolonged interest in this case and she 534 00:22:20,789 --> 00:22:17,520 became obsessed 535 00:22:23,029 --> 00:22:20,799 with finding out more when they would 536 00:22:23,909 --> 00:22:23,039 come to visit my childhood home which 537 00:22:27,270 --> 00:22:23,919 they did about 538 00:22:28,390 --> 00:22:27,280 once a week sometimes more than once a 539 00:22:30,470 --> 00:22:28,400 week 540 00:22:31,669 --> 00:22:30,480 instead of joining the family the way 541 00:22:34,789 --> 00:22:31,679 barney always 542 00:22:36,470 --> 00:22:34,799 had betty would start to

family 546 00:22:45,990 --> 00:22:43,280 farm 547 00:22:46,789 --> 00:22:46,000 and he didn't want to hear about it at 548 00:22:51,669 --> 00:22:46,799 all 549 00:22:54,390 --> 00:22:51,679 betty had a series of five dreams 550 00:22:55,350 --> 00:22:54,400 where i believe that she worked through 551 00:22:59,270 --> 00:22:55,360 any 552 00:23:02,549 --> 00:22:59,280 anxiety she had about what had occurred 553 00:23:03,430 --> 00:23:02,559 barney never had a dream about it barney 554 00:23:06,470 --> 00:23:03,440 developed 555 00:23:09,110 --> 00:23:06,480 bleeding ulcers he 556 00:23:09,590 --> 00:23:09,120 wasn't able to sleep he had what today 557 00:23:11,830 --> 00:23:09,600 we call 558 00:23:13,270 --> 00:23:11,840 post-traumatic stress disorder he 559 00:23:16,470 --> 00:23:13,280 developed what they called 560 00:23:18,430 --> 00:23:16,480 conversion hysteria where you develop 561 00:23:19,590 --> 00:23:18,440 physiological symptoms that are 562 00:23:22,870 --> 00:23:19,600 psychogenically 563 00:23:25,110 --> 00:23:22,880 induced and with the bleeding ulcer he 564 00:23:26,310 --> 00:23:25,120 ended up in the hospital he had high 565 00:23:29,430 --> 00:23:26,320 blood pressure 566 00:23:33,110 --> 00:23:29,440 he had to take a three-month leave of 567 00:23:36,789 --> 00:23:33,120 absence from work and this finally 568 00:23:39,990 --> 00:23:36,799 led to a referral to dr benjamin simon 569 00:23:42,950 --> 00:23:40,000 because dr simon had earned 570 00:23:44,070 --> 00:23:42,960 a reputation for himself through 571 00:23:47,269 --> 00:23:44,080 developing 572 00:23:50,630 --> 00:23:47,279 a new type of hypnosis 573 00:23:52,950 --> 00:23:50,640 that would get to the problem he 574 00:23:53,909 --> 00:23:52,960 during world war ii had set up the 575 00:23:56,630 --> 00:23:53,919 psychiatric 576 00:23:57,750 --> 00:23:56,640 unit at the mason general hospital on 577 00:24:01,590 --> 00:23:57,760 long island 578 00:24:04,710 --> 00:24:01,600 new york he was a colonel in the army 579 00:24:07,909 --> 00:24:04,720 and and uh a neuro 580 00:24:08,870 --> 00:24:07,919 psychiatrist he had a tremendous amount 581 00:24:11,510 --> 00:24:08,880 of success 582 00:24:13,029 --> 00:24:11,520 in working with these veterans who were 583 00:24:16,830 --> 00:24:13,039 returning 584 00:24:21,430 --> 00:24:16,840 from the war who had injuries and 585 00:24:24,549 --> 00:24:21,440 uh maybe one let me use an example 586 00:24:27,750 --> 00:24:24,559 a man was blinded 587 00:24:30,789 --> 00:24:27,760 but there was no physical condition 588 00:24:32,070 --> 00:24:30,799 his eyes were not damaged and the other 589 00:24:35,430 --> 00:24:32,080 psychiatrist did not 590 00:24:36,310 --> 00:24:35,440 have luck with him in overcoming this 591 00:24:39,430 --> 00:24:36,320 problem 592 00:24:43,909 --> 00:24:39,440 because they only went as far as him 593 00:24:47,110 --> 00:24:43,919 seeing his friend killed in front of him 594 00:24:50,149 --> 00:24:47,120 but dr simon had this technique of 595 00:24:51,510 --> 00:24:50,159 probing deeply and he went back into the 596 00:24:54,710 --> 00:24:51,520 man's history 597 00:24:57,510 --> 00:24:54,720 a couple of weeks before this happened 598 00:24:58,710 --> 00:24:57,520 he had received a dear john letter from 599 00:25:01,750 --> 00:24:58,720 his sweetheart 600 00:25:04,870 --> 00:25:01,760 calling off the relationship and it was 601 00:25:06,710 --> 00:25:04,880 the combination of these things that 602 00:25:09,269 --> 00:25:06,720 caused the blindness 603 00:25:10,230 --> 00:25:09,279 dr simon worked through all of that with 604 00:25:13,990 --> 00:25:10,240 him in deep 605 00:25:17,350 --> 00:25:14,000 trance hypnosis and then commanded 606 00:25:20,630 --> 00:25:17,360 him to see again and he regained his 607 00:25:23,430 --> 00:25:20,640 eyesight that in fact dr 608 00:25:24,310 --> 00:25:23,440 simon had a movie made about his work it

very politically involved they were 681 00:28:20,870 --> 00:28:17,440 good members of 682 00:28:24,149 --> 00:28:20,880 society just doing everything 683 00:28:27,750 --> 00:28:24,159 right they never wanted this kooky story 684 00:28:31,909 --> 00:28:27,760 to come out but unfortunately 685 00:28:35,190 --> 00:28:31,919 in september of 1965 686 00:28:38,310 --> 00:28:35,200 a friend of betty's um 687 00:28:40,070 --> 00:28:38,320 violated confidentiality when she talked 688 00:28:42,789 --> 00:28:40,080 with a friend of hers 689 00:28:43,430 --> 00:28:42,799 who was a newspaper reporter for

00:28:59,440 what happened to them and he believed 697 00:29:04,470 --> 00:29:01,039 that it was probably the most 698 00:29:07,110 --> 00:29:04,480 important case in history he uh wanted 699 00:29:09,110 --> 00:29:07,120 to talk with them and they refused 700 00:29:12,789 --> 00:29:09,120 they would not speak about it they said 701 00:29:16,230 --> 00:29:12,799 we don't want anyone to write about it 702 00:29:18,870 --> 00:29:16,240 it we could lose our jobs and 703 00:29:19,830 --> 00:29:18,880 they thought that they were safe at that 704 00:29:23,190 --> 00:29:19,840 point 705 00:29:26,470 --> 00:29:23,200 but at the end of october for five 706 00:29:30,070 --> 00:29:26,480 consecutive days their story ran 707 00:29:32,310 --> 00:29:30,080 in the boston traveler and john latrell 708 00:29:34,389 --> 00:29:32,320 who was the reporter 709 00:29:36,549 --> 00:29:34,399 interviewed people in upstate new 710 00:29:40,549 --> 00:29:36,559 hampshire who were witnesses 711 00:29:43,110 --> 00:29:40,559 he interviewed members of the air force 712 00:29:43,990 --> 00:29:43,120 and he interviewed many other people as 713 00:29:46,470 --> 00:29:44,000 well 714 00:29:47,350 --> 00:29:46,480 who didn't realize that betty and barney 715 00:29:51,029 --> 00:29:47,360 wanted this 716 00:29:54,630 --> 00:29:53,350 and uh what happened from there i mean 717 00:29:56,950 --> 00:29:54,640 at some point in time 718 00:29:58,070 --> 00:29:56,960 uh they well at least that betty did 719 00:30:00,549 --> 00:29:58,080 obviously 720 00:30:02,470 --> 00:30:00,559 uh if not embraced at least accepted the 721 00:30:03,830 --> 00:30:02,480 fact that the story was out so 722 00:30:05,510 --> 00:30:03,840 you know we may as well be a little bit 723 00:30:09,430 --> 00:30:05,520 more open about it and 724 00:30:12,230 --> 00:30:09,440 uh how did that process work out 725 00:30:14,630 --> 00:30:12,240 well we met as a family the there were 726 00:30:15,990 --> 00:30:14,640 reporters all around the house anyway so 727 00:30:19,350 --> 00:30:16,000 betty and barney 728 00:30:22,389 --> 00:30:19,360 escaped and drove the 20 miles to 729 00:30:23,990 --> 00:30:22,399 kingston new hampshire where i grew up i 730 00:30:26,149 --> 00:30:24,000 lived across the street from my 731 00:30:29,830 --> 00:30:26,159 grandparents betty's parents 732 00:30:32,710 --> 00:30:29,840 and we all sat down my parents and other 733 00:30:33,430 --> 00:30:32,720 family members and talked about what to 734 00:30:36,470 --> 00:30:33,440 do next 735 00:30:40,310 --> 00:30:36,480 because this not only impacted betty and 736 00:30:41,590 --> 00:30:40,320 barney it had an impact on the entire 737 00:30:44,950 --> 00:30:41,600 family 738 00:30:48,389 --> 00:30:44,960 and what we decided was that since 739 00:30:50,470 --> 00:30:48,399 this story had already been released 740 00:30:52,470 --> 00:30:50,480 the public knew about it that they might 741 00:30:55,110 --> 00:30:52,480 as well talk about it 742 00:30:56,310 --> 00:30:55,120 i think that barney was more reluctant 743 00:30:59,909 --> 00:30:56,320 than betty 744 00:31:00,870 --> 00:30:59,919 uh he was so committed to his work in 745 00:31:02,789 --> 00:31:00,880 civil rights 746 00:31:04,549 --> 00:31:02,799 he didn't really want anything to 747 00:31:08,230 --> 00:31:04,559 interfere with that 748 00:31:11,509 --> 00:31:08,240 but he did agree to talk about 749 00:31:14,789 --> 00:31:11,519 his siding and he did that 750 00:31:17,269 --> 00:31:14,799 in early november of 1965 751 00:31:18,310

crowd the church was overflowing 755 00:31:30,549 --> 00:31:28,480 with people and he was introduced by the 756 00:31:34,149 --> 00:31:30,559 public information officer 757 00:31:37,350 --> 00:31:34,159 from pease air force base who said that 758 00:31:39,590 --> 00:31:37,360 many people had been reporting ufos 759 00:31:41,190 --> 00:31:39,600 and that betty and barney had had a 760 00:31:41,990 --> 00:31:41,200 sighting that they were going to talk 761 00:31:44,470 --> 00:31:42,000 about 762 00:31:45,990 --> 00:31:44,480 they did not discuss the abduction or 763 00:31:48,549 --> 00:31:46,000 anything that came out under 764 00:31:49,269 --> 00:31:48,559 hypnosis they didn't consciously 765 00:31:51,430 --> 00:31:49,279 remember 766 00:31:52,549 --> 00:31:51,440 the abduction

--> 00:35:07,440 farm now betty and barney were looking 846 00:35:10,150 --> 00:35:07,839 there 847 00:35:11,109 --> 00:35:10,160 the scientists lived in other areas of 848 00:35:13,910 --> 00:35:11,119 the country 849 00:35:15,510 --> 00:35:13,920 one in new york and one down south i 850 00:35:19,910 --> 00:35:15,520 think it was in georgia 851 00:35:23,349 --> 00:35:19,920 so um betty and barney did look 852 00:35:27,109 --> 00:35:23,359 there was a craft that did come in 853 00:35:30,550 --> 00:35:27,119 at one time and left physical trace 854 00:35:31,589 --> 00:35:30,560 marks on the ground at my grandparents 855 00:35:34,790 --> 00:35:31,599 farm 856 00:35:36,790 --> 00:35:34,800 it came in about 200 feet from my 857 00:35:40,069 --> 00:35:36,800 childhood home 858 00:35:40,470 --> 00:35:40,079 and it was observed by two individuals 859 00:35:43,990 --> 00:35:40,480 who 860 00:35:45,910 --> 00:35:44,000 other was 861 00:35:47,910 --> 00:35:45,920 a man who lived up the street who was 862 00:35:52,390 --> 00:35:47,920 returning home from work 863 00:35:55,109 --> 00:35:52,400 and it was scientifically investigated 864 00:35:57,030 --> 00:35:55,119 there were a lot of sightings in that 865 00:35:59,349 --> 00:35:57,040 part of new hampshire 866 00:36:00,870 --> 00:35:59,359 when betty was trying to call these 867 00:36:04,069 --> 00:36:00,880 crafts in 868 00:36:05,430 --> 00:36:04,079 and sometimes the scientists would see 869 00:36:09,190 --> 00:36:05,440 the craft too 870 00:36:12,710 --> 00:36:09,200 but not always so they couldn't state 871 00:36:15,109 --> 00:36:12,720 that they were convinced that 872 00:36:15,750 --> 00:36:15,119 um it was betty who was calling in the 873 00:36:18,790 --> 00:36:15,760 craft 874 00:36:22,550 --> 00:36:18,800 it might have just been uh coming in 875 00:36:25,349 --> 00:36:22,560 on its own without uh her experiment 876 00:36:25,990 --> 00:36:25,359 but that was sort of the conclusion they 877 00:36:28,710 --> 00:36:26,000 reached 878 00:36:29,349 --> 00:36:28,720 but betty continued these experiments 879 00:36:32,550 --> 00:36:29,359 and 880 00:36:35,190 --> 00:36:32,560 ended up talking about it publicly 881 00:36:38,470 --> 00:36:35,200 and that is when she was so heavily 882 00:36:44,790 --> 00:36:41,670 and also there was a uh a map 883 00:36:46,630 --> 00:36:44,800 basically that uh betty was uh uh 884 00:36:49,270 --> 00:36:46,640 able to put together uh based on uh 885 00:36:51,990 --> 00:36:49,280 something that uh she had seen uh a 886 00:36:55,430 --> 00:36:52,000 while in uh the company of uh the ets 887 00:36:57,990 --> 00:36:55,440 and that uh relates to the zeta reticuli 888 00:36:59,750 --> 00:36:58,000 system uh there was some work done by a 889 00:37:02,630 --> 00:36:59,760 lady named marjorie fish 890 00:37:04,470 --> 00:37:02,640 uh this is a facet i think this is a 891 00:37:06,870 --> 00:37:04,480 fascinating uh 892 00:37:07,990 --> 00:37:06,880 piece and uh can you talk about that a 893 00:37:10,870 --> 00:37:08,000 little bit 894 00:37:11,829 --> 00:37:10,880 i would love to because this is where 895 00:37:15,670 --> 00:37:11,839 stanton came 896 00:37:17,510 --> 00:37:15,680 in on that case uh uh let me start from 897 00:37:21,750 --> 00:37:17,520 the beginning what happened 898 00:37:22,550 --> 00:37:21,760 is that uh when dr simon was hypnotizing 899 00:37:26,390 --> 00:37:22,560 betty 900 00:37:29,109 --> 00:37:26,400 she said that there uh she 901 00:37:30,870 --> 00:37:29,119 her examination had been finished the 902 00:37:33,670 --> 00:37:30,880 examiner went in to 903 00:37:34,470 --> 00:37:33,680 examine barney uh or at least he'd left 904 00:37:37,030 --> 00:37:34,480 the room 905 00:37:37,990 --> 00:37:37,040 she didn't know where he went really and 906 00:37:40,390 --> 00:37:38,000 so she 907 00:37:41,270 --> 00:37:40,400 said to the one that she called the 908 00:37:43,510 --> 00:37:41,280 leader 909 00:37:45,270 --> 00:37:43,520 i know you're not from around here 910 00:37:48,950 --> 00:37:45,280 where's your home port 911 00:37:52,790 --> 00:37:48,960 and he produced this three-dimensional 912 00:37:55,510 --> 00:37:52,800 star map and on it were two stars in the 913 00:37:58,550 --> 00:37:55,520 foreground that were about the size of 914 00:38:01,829 --> 00:37:58,560 nickels or or quarters they were 915 00:38:04,230 --> 00:38:01,839 connected by five solid lines and then 916 00:38:07,910 --> 00:38:04,240 there were other stars that were just 917 00:38:11,349 --> 00:38:07,920 some tiny circles that were connected by 918 00:38:12,950 --> 00:38:11,359 two or three solid lines and then on the 919 00:38:13,829 --> 00:38:12,960 map there were some stars that were 920 00:38:16,630 --> 00:38:13,839 connected by 921 00:38:18,870 --> 00:38:16,640 dotted lines others that were not 922 00:38:22,630 --> 00:38:18,880 connected by lines at all 923 00:38:26,630 --> 00:38:22,640 and so betty said to 924 00:38:30,870 --> 00:38:26,640 him well where where are you on this map 925 00:38:33,829 --> 00:38:30,880 and she was made to understand that 926 00:38:34,790 --> 00:38:33,839 the uh solid lines represented trade 927 00:38:38,349 --> 00:38:34,800 routes and 928 00:38:41,510 --> 00:38:38,359 the dotted lines represented 929 00:38:42,310 --> 00:38:41,520 expeditions so uh she said where are you 930 00:38:44,630 --> 00:38:42,320 from 931 00:38:45,430 --> 00:38:44,640 on this map where are you and he said 932 00:38:48,470 --> 00:38:45,440 well 933 00:38:51,589 --> 00:38:48,480 where are you on this map and she said 934 00:38:53,030 --> 00:38:51,599 i don't know i know very little about 935 00:38:55,990 --> 00:38:53,040 the universe 936 00:38:56,390 --> 00:38:56,000 and he said well if you don't know where 937 00:39:04,230 --> 00:38:56,400 you 938 00:39:06,470 --> 00:39:04,240 so then he just made it go away 939 00:39:07,589 --> 00:39:06,480 put it back into the wall or whatever 940 00:39:11,270 --> 00:39:07,599 happened 941 00:39:14,390 --> 00:39:11,280 and dr simon told betty 942 00:39:17,589 --> 00:39:14,400 to under hypnotic suggestion 943 00:39:19,750 --> 00:39:17,599 to draw that when she arrived home and 944 00:39:22,069 --> 00:39:19,760 over the next couple of weeks as long as 945 00:39:25,190 --> 00:39:22,079 she could remember it accurately 946 00:39:28,790 --> 00:39:25,200 and it didn't trouble her too much so 947 00:39:31,510 --> 00:39:28,800 uh she did actually draw it 948 00:39:32,630 --> 00:39:31,520 her conscious recall took over a little 949 00:39:37,910 --> 00:39:32,640 bit or her con 950 00:39:41,349 --> 00:39:37,920 rational mind and she erased a line and 951 00:39:44,390 --> 00:39:41,359 drew it differently but marjorie 952 00:39:46,230 --> 00:39:44,400 fish saw it in the first book that was 953 00:39:48,310 --> 00:39:46,240 ever published about their case the 954 00:39:51,349 --> 00:39:48,320 interrupted journey by john g 955 00:39:51,829 --> 00:39:51,359 fuller and marjorie was a brilliant 956 00:39:55,109 --> 00:39:51,839 woman 957 00:39:58,870 --> 00:39:55,119 from ohio she had studied 958 00:39:59,430 --> 00:39:58,880 biology in college she at that time was 959 00:40:02,710 --> 00:39:59,440 a school 960 00:40:05,430 --> 00:40:02,720 teacher she was single and she 961 00:40:07,990 --> 00:40:05,440 was skeptical but she thought that 962 00:40:11,910 --> 00:40:08,000 perhaps she would be able to find 963 00:40:14,069 --> 00:40:11,920 where these non-human entities came from 964 00:40:15,349 --> 00:40:14,079 and so she set out by going to the 965 00:40:18,550 --> 00:40:15,359 university 966 00:40:20,069 --> 00:40:18,560 and there there were no copy machines 967 00:40:24,069 --> 00:40:20,079 back in those days 968 00:40:24,710 --> 00:40:24,079 she had to sit um in the astronomy 969 00:40:27,829 --> 00:40:24,720 department 970 00:40:29,750 --> 00:40:27,839 library and copy all of the 971 00:40:33,030 --> 00:40:29,760 characteristics of the stars 972 00:40:37,190 --> 00:40:33,040 and the distance data that they had 973 00:40:40,870 --> 00:40:37,200 at that time and she did this 974 00:40:44,069 --> 00:40:40,880 for all parts the 975 00:40:47,349 --> 00:40:44,079 complete circle around our sun 976 00:40:50,230 --> 00:40:47,359 out 54 light years and she started 977 00:40:51,510 --> 00:40:50,240 building three-dimensional models using 978 00:40:54,790 --> 00:40:51,520 a frame 979 00:40:56,150 --> 00:40:54,800 and monofilament line and beads of 980 00:40:59,910 --> 00:40:56,160 various sizes 981 00:41:01,990 --> 00:40:59,920 and colors to represent the types of 982 00:41:04,950 --> 00:41:02,000 stars that they were 983 00:41:05,510 --> 00:41:04,960 and imagine the work she had to do to 984 00:41:09,030 --> 00:41:05,520 take this 985 00:41:12,790 --> 00:41:09,040 information back and to do the math 986 00:41:15,950 --> 00:41:12,800 to calculate where each of these stars 987 00:41:17,430 --> 00:41:15,960 was supposed to be in its 988 00:41:20,710 --> 00:41:17,440 three-dimensional 989 00:41:24,710 --> 00:41:20,720 frame and 990 00:41:29,270 --> 00:41:24,720 years went by and uh she still 991 00:41:32,470 --> 00:41:29,280 did not have a match by 1972 992 00:41:34,550 --> 00:41:32,480 and she but she persevered she had been 993 00:41:35,990 --> 00:41:34,560 she had interviewed betty she had been 994 00:41:40,710 --> 00:41:36,000 to new hampshire 995 00:41:44,390 --> 00:41:40,720 um and finally a new gliese catalog was 996 00:41:47,829 --> 00:41:44,400 released in 1972 with new distance data 997 00:41:48,710 --> 00:41:47,839 and stars that were identified within 54 998 00:41:52,630 --> 00:41:48,720 light years 999 00:41:53,990 --> 00:41:52,640 that hadn't been on the in the previous 1000 00:41:57,510 --> 00:41:54,000 catalogs 1001 00:42:00,630 --> 00:41:57,520 so she took this new information home 1002 00:42:02,630 --> 00:42:00,640 and she 1003 00:42:03,910 --> 00:42:02,640 had another star map another 1004 00:42:06,950 --> 00:42:03,920 construction 1005 00:42:10,550 --> 00:42:06,960 and using the new distance 1006 00:42:14,710 --> 00:42:10,560 data using that new data she 1007 00:42:17,270 --> 00:42:14,720 found a match so this was extraordinary 1008 00:42:20,470 --> 00:42:17,280 finally after all these years of work 1009 00:42:21,190 --> 00:42:20,480 she had found a match but who would she 1010 00:42:24,230 --> 00:42:21,200 find to 1011 00:42:26,309 --> 00:42:24,240 vet her work for accuracy who in the 1012 00:42:29,670 --> 00:42:26,319 scientific community 1013 00:42:33,190 --> 00:42:29,680 so she was she joined apro the 1014 00:42:35,750 --> 00:42:33,200 aerial phenomena research organization 1015 00:42:36,950 --> 00:42:35,760 that was directed by coral and jim 1016 00:42:39,829 --> 00:42:36,960 lorenzen 1017 00:42:41,990 --> 00:42:39,839 she got in touch with coral and coral 1018 00:42:45,109 --> 00:42:42,000 contacted stanton 1019 00:42:48,470 --> 00:42:45,119 and he coral said if you were ever 1020 00:42:51,510 --> 00:42:48,480 in ohio would you please 1021 00:42:53,990 --> 00:42:51,520 meet with bard marjorie fish and 1022 00:42:55,430 --> 00:42:54,000 if you find that she's a credible person 1023 00:42:58,790 --> 00:42:55,440 to talk to 1024 00:43:00,230 --> 00:42:58,800 then uh please find scientists who will 1025 00:43:03,349 --> 00:43:00,240 vet her work 1026 00:43:06,630 --> 00:43:03,359 so that's what stanton did eventually 1027 00:43:09,829 --> 00:43:06,640 he uh went to marjory's house he told 1028 00:43:13,510 --> 00:43:09,839 me that marjorie 1029 00:43:14,950 --> 00:43:13,520 was he thought more comfortable speaking 1030 00:43:16,950 --> 00:43:14,960 with scientists 1031 00:43:19,510 --> 00:43:16,960 than with speaking with the general 1032 00:43:21,670 --> 00:43:19,520 public marjorie 1033 00:43:22,870 --> 00:43:21,680 was a member of mensah meaning that she 1034 00:43:26,470 --> 00:43:22,880 had a very high 1035 00:43:29,670 --> 00:43:26,480 iq and he found her 1036 00:43:32,790 --> 00:43:29,680 to be impressive quiet and shy 1037 00:43:35,030 --> 00:43:32,800 but highly intelligent and uh 1038 00:43:36,309 --> 00:43:35,040 he was impressed by the work that she 1039 00:43:39,589 --> 00:43:36,319 had done 1040 00:43:43,349 --> 00:43:39,599 so he contacted dr 1041 00:43:44,230 --> 00:43:43,359 j allen heineck and dr heineck at that 1042 00:43:48,150 --> 00:43:44,240 time 1043 00:43:51,349 --> 00:43:48,160 was at northwestern university 1044 00:43:55,510 --> 00:43:51,359 and he was the head of the 1045 00:43:58,950 --> 00:43:55,520 dearborn observatory 1046 00:44:00,150 --> 00:43:58,960 at that time and so stanton and marjorie 1047 00:44:03,030 --> 00:44:00,160 went up 1048 00:44:04,550 --> 00:44:03,040 to and marjorie had written a report for 1049 00:44:07,589 --> 00:44:04,560 dr heineck 1050 00:44:08,069 --> 00:44:07,599 and they met with him they took a star 1051 00:44:11,990 --> 00:44:08,079 map 1052 00:44:14,470 --> 00:44:12,000 model and he looked at all of the work 1053 00:44:15,829 --> 00:44:14,480 and he said that marjorie's work was 1054 00:44:19,190 --> 00:44:15,839 accurate 1055 00:44:22,470 --> 00:44:19,200 he also contacted dr david 1056 00:44:25,670 --> 00:44:22,480 saunders dr saunders was 1057 00:44:27,589 --> 00:44:25,680 one of the lead uh investigators 1058 00:44:29,510 --> 00:44:27,599 for the condon committee at the 1059 00:44:32,230 --> 00:44:29,520 university of colorado 1060 00:44:33,670 --> 00:44:32,240 scientific study on ufos he was a 1061 00:44:37,270 --> 00:44:33,680 statistician 1062 00:44:40,390 --> 00:44:37,280 he discovered that it was very accurate 1063 00:44:41,109 --> 00:44:40,400 as well there was only one line that was 1064 00:44:44,710 --> 00:44:41,119 a little bit 1065 00:44:48,470 --> 00:44:44,720 off and probably that was the line that 1066 00:44:54,790 --> 00:44:51,670 and uh and then eventually 1067 00:44:58,150 --> 00:44:54,800 uh ohio state university uh 1068 00:45:00,550 --> 00:44:58,160 the astronomy department examined it too 1069 00:45:02,630 --> 00:45:00,560 and at that time they did finally have 1070 00:45:06,710 --> 00:45:02,640 computers and they discovered that 1071 00:45:10,630 --> 00:45:06,720 again marjorie's work was indeed 1072 00:45:13,829 --> 00:45:10,640 uh reliable and uh accurate 1073 00:45:17,109 --> 00:45:13,839 and uh so this was big news 1074 00:45:20,710 --> 00:45:17,119 the next thing stanton did is he 1075 00:45:22,150 --> 00:45:20,720 wrote an article with a professional 1076 00:45:26,069 --> 00:45:22,160 writer from 1077 00:45:29,109 --> 00:45:26,079 california that he had worked with and 1078 00:45:33,670 --> 00:45:29,119 it was published in a magazine and then 1079 00:45:36,790 --> 00:45:33,680 stanton contacted terence dickinson 1080 00:45:40,230 --> 00:45:36,800 who was an astronomer uh from 1081 00:45:43,030 --> 00:45:40,240 astronomy magazine and he became 1082 00:45:43,510 --> 00:45:43,040 interested in marjorie's work and wrote 1083 00:46:26,309 --> 00:45:43,520 a 1084 00:46:27,109 --> 00:46:26,319 if you looked into the sky but there 1085 00:46:30,230 --> 00:46:27,119 were very 1086 00:46:31,430 --> 00:46:30,240 important characteristics regarding the 1087 00:46:35,109 --> 00:46:31,440 star map 1088 00:46:37,349 --> 00:46:35,119 and uh that was not brought up by any of 1089 00:46:40,550 --> 00:46:37,359 the people who criticized it 1090 00:46:43,829 --> 00:46:40,560 and that was that 1091 00:46:47,750 --> 00:46:43,839 uh all of the stars connected by 1092 00:46:48,790 --> 00:46:47,760 lines on betty's map uh were sun-like 1093 00:46:55,190 --> 00:46:48,800 stars 1094 00:46:56,309 --> 00:46:55,200 in our local galactic neighborhood out 1095 00:46:59,030 --> 00:46:56,319 54 1096 00:47:00,069 --> 00:46:59,040 light years are considered star-like 1097 00:47:05,990 --> 00:47:00,079 stars 1098 00:47:06,950 --> 00:47:06,000 in that volume of space were on betty's 1099 00:47:09,510 --> 00:47:06,960 map 1100 00:47:11,030 --> 00:47:09,520 the chances of that happening just by 1101 00:47:14,470 --> 00:47:11,040 coincidence 1102 00:47:16,710 --> 00:47:14,480 was a thousand to one 1103 00:47:17,910 --> 00:47:16,720 and it would have been higher if that 1104 00:47:20,549 --> 00:47:17,920 one line 1105 00:47:21,510 --> 00:47:20,559 had not been a little bit off in its 1106 00:47:24,870 --> 00:47:21,520 angle 1107 00:47:28,790 --> 00:47:24,880 so that was incredibly important and 1108 00:47:33,190 --> 00:47:28,800 terence dickinson in his uh analysis 1109 00:47:37,270 --> 00:47:33,200 of marjorie's work stated that if 1110 00:47:40,710 --> 00:47:37,280 we were on zeta reticuli that's where 1111 00:47:44,150 --> 00:47:40,720 it was identified as the two uh large 1112 00:47:48,150 --> 00:47:44,160 stars with the five lines between them 1113 00:47:48,630 --> 00:47:48,160 if we uh were launching a space program 1114 00:47:51,910 --> 00:47:48,640 and we 1115 00:47:52,950 --> 00:47:51,920 wanted to go to the sun to our solar 1116 00:47:55,190 --> 00:47:52,960 system 1117 00:47:56,069 --> 00:47:55,200 that was the pattern that we would 1118 00:47:59,349 --> 00:47:56,079 follow 1119 00:48:02,230 --> 00:47:59,359 uh we would go from star to star 1120 00:48:04,069 --> 00:48:02,240 um and and look for planets where we 1121 00:48:07,190 --> 00:48:04,079 could set up temporary 1122 00:48:10,470 --> 00:48:07,200 bases uh and 1123 00:48:13,750 --> 00:48:10,480 to go on to the next star system and 1124 00:48:16,870 --> 00:48:13,760 that all of these stars were in a plane 1125 00:48:19,910 --> 00:48:16,880 like pepperoni on pizza rather than 1126 00:48:20,790 --> 00:48:19,920 uh raisins in a loaf of raisin bread so 1127 00:48:24,309 --> 00:48:20,800 it made 1128 00:48:25,750 --> 00:48:24,319 sense uh with distance near a star to 1129 00:48:28,790 --> 00:48:25,760 nearest star 1130 00:48:32,150 --> 00:48:28,800 so that map uh was 1131 00:48:35,349 --> 00:48:32,160 far more important than just identifying 1132 00:48:38,710 --> 00:48:35,359 stars uh in 1133 00:48:41,349 --> 00:48:38,720 in the sky it those stars had very 1134 00:48:43,670 --> 00:48:41,359 special properties 1135 00:48:45,670 --> 00:48:43,680 and uh just uh one thing that you didn't 1136 00:48:47,109 --> 00:48:45,680 mention i happen to know because i i'm 1137 00:48:49,589 --> 00:48:47,119 kind of into this star map 1138 00:48:51,990 --> 00:48:49,599 is that the zeta reticuli is uh not 1139 00:48:54,390 --> 00:48:52,000 observable from the northern hemisphere 1140 00:48:56,390 --> 00:48:54,400 uh you'd have to go down to australia or 1141 00:48:59,430 --> 00:48:56,400 south america or someplace like that 1142 00:49:00,230 --> 00:48:59,440 in order to see it so yes that is true 1143 00:49:03,510 --> 00:49:00,240 and it's still 1144 00:49:05,510 --> 00:49:03,520 and it's very dim i was told if you're 1145 00:49:07,270 --> 00:49:05,520 in australia you're looking at it or 1146 00:49:09,829 --> 00:49:07,280 south america looking at it 1147 00:49:11,990 --> 00:49:09,839 it's in the constellation reticulum the 1148 00:49:14,470 --> 00:49:12,000 net 1149 00:49:15,670 --> 00:49:14,480 and uh yeah just uh moving along so uh 1150 00:49:18,309 --> 00:49:15,680 you're uh 1151 00:49:20,470 --> 00:49:18,319 stanton that friedman gets interested in 1152 00:49:22,069 --> 00:49:20,480 the star map uh not surprisingly you 1153 00:49:24,630 --> 00:49:22,079 know he's a scientist so 1154 00:49:26,069 --> 00:49:24,640 uh he that's something that you can kind 1155 00:49:28,390 --> 00:49:26,079 of sink your teeth into 1156 00:49:31,589 --> 00:49:28,400 but at what point did they you begin 1157 00:49:36,950 --> 00:49:31,599 your act of collaboration 1158 00:49:39,670 --> 00:49:36,960 we began our collaboration in 2005. 1159 00:49:41,349 --> 00:49:39,680 we had shortly after betty's death i'd 1160 00:49:44,309 --> 00:49:41,359 written a manuscript 1161 00:49:45,990 --> 00:49:44,319 i'd been investigating that case for 14 1162 00:49:49,510 --> 00:49:46,000 years 1163 00:49:52,549 --> 00:49:49,520 and betty had told me 1164 00:49:55,670 --> 00:49:52,559 that if i needed any assistance with 1165 00:49:56,630 --> 00:49:55,680 the book that i should contact stanton 1166 00:49:59,430 --> 00:49:56,640 friedman 1167 00:49:59,829 --> 00:49:59,440 because he was honest and i could trust 1168 00:50:03,270 --> 00:49:59,839 him 1169 00:50:06,710 --> 00:50:03,280 implicitly he was meticulous and so 1170 00:50:09,829 --> 00:50:06,720 i approached stanton in 2005 1171 00:50:11,910 --> 00:50:09,839 and spoke to him about this and 1172 00:50:13,030 --> 00:50:11,920 asked me if he'd be interested in 1173 00:50:15,109 --> 00:50:13,040 joining me 1174 00:50:17,750 --> 00:50:15,119 we had already worked on a television 1175 00:50:20,150 --> 00:50:17,760 show together after betty's death 1176 00:50:21,030 --> 00:50:20,160 and in the white mountains of new 1177 00:50:22,950 --> 00:50:21,040 hampshire 1178 00:50:24,069 --> 00:50:22,960 and he said well i want to see what you 1179 00:50:26,309 --> 00:50:24,079 have first 1180 00:50:27,270 --> 00:50:26,319 i'm not going to agree to anything 1181 00:50:32,069 --> 00:50:27,280 without seeing 1182 00:50:34,470 --> 00:50:32,079 it and so we arranged for him to come to 1183 00:50:35,589 --> 00:50:34,480 my house i was living with my husband in 1184 00:50:38,950 --> 00:50:35,599 new hampshire 1185 00:50:41,990 --> 00:50:38,960 the seacoast 1186 00:50:43,430 --> 00:50:42,000 and he drove down he spent a few days 1187 00:50:46,790 --> 00:50:43,440 with us 1188 00:50:49,510 --> 00:50:46,800 i had betty's entire collection 1189 00:50:51,030 --> 00:50:49,520 that i was preparing to establish an 1190 00:50:53,510 --> 00:50:51,040 archival collection 1191 00:50:54,950 --> 00:50:53,520 at the university of new hampshire so i 1192 00:50:58,069 --> 00:50:54,960 had all of those 1193 00:50:59,030 --> 00:50:58,079 archival files and i let stanton 1194 00:51:02,150 --> 00:50:59,040 photocopy 1195 00:51:03,670 --> 00:51:02,160 anything that he wanted he read my 1196 00:51:06,790 --> 00:51:03,680 manuscript 1197 00:51:10,309 --> 00:51:06,800 and we talked for hours on 1198 00:51:13,510 --> 00:51:10,319 end and at the end of this 1199 00:51:15,510 --> 00:51:13,520 he said to me i will join you in writing 1200 00:51:15,990 --> 00:51:15,520 this book because i can see that you're 1201 00:51:20,870 --> 00:51:16,000 being 1202 00:51:22,230 --> 00:51:20,880 he said i wouldn't work with you any 1203 00:51:25,510 --> 00:51:22,240 other way 1204 00:51:29,270 --> 00:51:25,520 and so uh he he did 1205 00:51:32,069 --> 00:51:29,280 like my my mind and the way i thought 1206 00:51:33,349 --> 00:51:32,079 he he used to say that we thought alike 1207 00:51:36,710 --> 00:51:33,359 that we processed 1208 00:51:39,589 --> 00:51:36,720 information in much the same way and so 1209 00:51:39,990 --> 00:51:39,599 we worked very well together and we 1210 00:51:47,109 --> 00:51:40,000 wrote 1211 00:51:50,150 --> 00:51:47,119 one on the star map and one on 1212 00:51:53,349 --> 00:51:50,160 uh dis informants and disbelievers 1213 00:51:56,150 --> 00:51:53,359 and he assisted me with a little bit 1214 00:51:58,069 --> 00:51:56,160 more of of the work that i was writing i 1215 00:52:01,030 --> 00:51:58,079 wanted him to write more 1216 00:52:02,829 --> 00:52:01,040 as well but he was very busy and he kept 1217 00:52:04,549 --> 00:52:02,839 saying to me you're doing fine keep 1218 00:52:06,790 --> 00:52:04,559 going 1219 00:52:07,589 --> 00:52:06,800 on other parts that he thought would be 1220 00:52:10,790 --> 00:52:07,599 good to put 1221 00:52:13,829 --> 00:52:10,800 into the book so uh 1222 00:52:16,069 --> 00:52:13,839 we finished this together uh dr bruce 1223 00:52:18,390 --> 00:52:16,079 mcabee vetted my work 1224 00:52:19,829 --> 00:52:18,400 and linda moulton howe did in addition 1225 00:52:22,549 --> 00:52:19,839 to stanton 1226 00:52:23,430 --> 00:52:22,559 and uh the book was published and it 1227 00:52:26,309 --> 00:52:23,440 became 1228 00:52:26,630 --> 00:52:26,319 uh number one bestseller in its category 1229 00:52:29,109 --> 00:52:26,640 so 1230 00:52:30,950 --> 00:52:29,119 we were very pleased with that we 1231 00:52:34,230 --> 00:52:30,960 started uh working together 1232 00:52:38,549 --> 00:52:34,240 oftentimes speaking from the same stage 1233 00:52:41,589 --> 00:52:38,559 doing radio shows together and then 1234 00:52:43,190 --> 00:52:41,599 he contacted me one day and he said 1235 00:52:44,950 --> 00:52:43,200 how would you like to write another book 1236 00:52:46,870 --> 00:52:44,960 together and 1237 00:52:48,150 --> 00:52:46,880 i said sure what do you want to write 1238 00:52:51,270 --> 00:52:48,160 about i i 1239 00:52:53,589 --> 00:52:51,280 love writing um i when i went to college 1240 00:52:55,670 --> 00:52:53,599 i always wanted to become a writer 1241 00:52:57,990 --> 00:52:55,680 and but my aunt betty said to me do 1242 00:53:01,829 --> 00:52:58,000 something practical 1243 00:53:05,190 --> 00:53:01,839 as a writer be a social worker so i was 1244 00:53:08,230 --> 00:53:05,200 well you can do both yes yes so i 1245 00:53:11,349 --> 00:53:08,240 i did that and yes 1246 00:53:14,710 --> 00:53:11,359 and so i have pretty much 1247 00:53:16,950 --> 00:53:14,720 over the past 30 years moved toward 1248 00:53:19,910 --> 00:53:16,960 becoming a full-time 1249 00:53:22,630 --> 00:53:19,920 researcher investigator and writer 1250 00:53:25,510 --> 00:53:22,640 stanton and i wrote three books together 1251 00:53:26,150 --> 00:53:25,520 the the last one was fact fiction and 1252 00:53:29,270 --> 00:53:26,160 flying 1253 00:53:31,510 --> 00:53:29,280 saucers and it was about the archival 1254 00:53:34,069 --> 00:53:31,520 research that we had done 1255 00:53:35,030 --> 00:53:34,079 because he had been to many archives

--> 00:53:44,240 together and read the files 1260 00:53:50,630 --> 00:53:47,359 there and especially donald 1261 00:53:54,390 --> 00:53:50,640 mansell's files philip 1262 00:53:56,950 --> 00:53:54,400 edward condon's files we 1263 00:53:58,150 --> 00:53:56,960 retrieved a tremendous amount of 1264 00:54:01,109 --> 00:53:58,160 information 1265 00:54:01,829 --> 00:54:01,119 that we put into fact fiction and flying 1266 00:54:05,030 --> 00:54:01,839 saucers 1267 00:54:08,230 --> 00:54:05,040 i'm very proud of that book it is all 1268 00:54:10,710 --> 00:54:08,240 uh footnoted and uh 1269 00:54:12,549 --> 00:54:10,720 a huge bibliography yeah kathleen it 1270 00:54:14,790 --> 00:54:12,559 sounds like you were doing a lot of oppo 1271 00:54:17,589 --> 00:54:14,800 research there you were going after the 1272 00:54:18,230 --> 00:54:17,599 archives of the uh the debunkers and the 1273 00:54:25,270 --> 00:54:18,240 uh 1274 00:54:27,829 --> 00:54:25,280 reason for that strategy absolutely 1275 00:54:29,910 --> 00:54:27,839 they were the ones who were uh the 1276 00:54:33,430 --> 00:54:29,920 disinformants who were 1277 00:54:36,069 --> 00:54:33,440 creating false information and i 1278 00:54:38,390 --> 00:54:36,079 first went without stanton to the 1279 00:54:41,109 --> 00:54:38,400 american philosophical society 1280 00:54:43,030 --> 00:54:41,119 to read philip class's archival 1281 00:54:45,829 --> 00:54:43,040 collection specifically 1282 00:54:46,470 --> 00:54:45,839 to see what he had written about betty 1283 00:54:50,230 --> 00:54:46,480 hill 1284 00:54:54,069 --> 00:54:50,240 and i found a lot of information 1285 00:54:57,349 --> 00:54:54,079 about him setting her up and uh 1286 00:55:01,030 --> 00:54:57,359 disinforming the public about her work 1287 00:55:04,630 --> 00:55:01,040 and what she was doing and uh 1288 00:55:05,109 --> 00:55:04,640 i i felt that other people needed to 1289 00:55:08,390 --> 00:55:05,119 know 1290 00:55:11,829 --> 00:55:08,400 about this so i ended up acquiring 1291 00:55:13,109 --> 00:55:11,839 philip class's fbi files the files they 1292 00:55:15,990 --> 00:55:13,119 had on him 1293 00:55:16,470 --> 00:55:16,000 and doing a very thorough investigation 1294 00:55:19,510 --> 00:55:16,480 of who 1295 00:55:22,549 --> 00:55:19,520 he was what his background was 1296 00:55:27,190 --> 00:55:22,559 how he ended up becoming 1297 00:55:29,069 --> 00:55:27,200 uh supposedly he was a ufo investigator 1298 00:55:31,750 --> 00:55:29,079 but he was a ufo 1299 00:55:33,349 --> 00:55:31,760 disinformant who took every section of 1300 00:55:35,349 --> 00:55:33,359 betty's and barney's case 1301 00:55:36,630 --> 00:55:35,359 and rewrote it and filled it with 1302 00:55:39,589 --> 00:55:36,640 speculation 1303 00:55:40,069 --> 00:55:39,599 so the things that he wrote are false 1304 00:55:43,750 --> 00:55:40,079 and 1305 00:55:47,109 --> 00:55:43,760 brush as well 1306 00:55:47,670 --> 00:55:47,119 he painted betty is a lifelong science 1307 00:55:51,430 --> 00:55:47,680 fiction 1308 00:55:54,630 --> 00:55:51,440 fan and someone who was a ufo 1309 00:55:57,670 --> 00:55:54,640 kook lifelong and she was not that was 1310 00:55:58,069 --> 00:55:57,680 absolutely false and he painted barney 1311 00:56:05,109 --> 00:55:58,079 as 1312 00:56:07,190 --> 00:56:05,119 that he would do or say anything that 1313 00:56:10,630 --> 00:56:07,200 betty wanted him to 1314 00:56:12,950 --> 00:56:10,640 and that was absolutely false you cannot 1315 00:56:13,670 --> 00:56:12,960 take a black man who marries a white 1316 00:56:17,190 --> 00:56:13,680 woman 1317 00:56:20,470 --> 00:56:17,200 in 1960 and say that he is a 1318 00:56:21,190 --> 00:56:20,480 wimp and a man who is a civil rights 1319

think anybody doubts kathleen 1323 00:56:31,670 --> 00:56:29,440 that it was 1324 00:56:34,470 --> 00:56:31,680 it was class's job whether it was 1325 00:56:37,349 --> 00:56:34,480 self-imposed or he was a cia asset 1326 00:56:39,430 --> 00:56:37,359 or or fill in the blank to actually sow 1327 00:56:41,430 --> 00:56:39,440 the seeds of doubt in the public's mind 1328 00:56:43,750 --> 00:56:41,440

that it's 1415 01:00:04,789 --> 01:00:03,359 critically important for folks to 1416 01:00:07,589 --> 01:00:04,799 understand 1417 01:00:09,910 --> 01:00:07,599 and that people that have endured these 1418 01:00:13,030 --> 01:00:09,920 kinds of experiences 1419 01:00:14,309 --> 01:00:13,040 have to deal with an injury that you 1420 01:00:16,630 --> 01:00:14,319 can't see 1421 01:00:18,150 --> 01:00:16,640 but it's in their mind and their brain 1422 01:00:20,390 --> 01:00:18,160 and their spirit 1423 01:00:23,109 --> 01:00:20,400 and it's the feeling of being trapped 1424 01:00:24,789 --> 01:00:23,119 and not having control of any kind 1425 01:00:26,549 --> 01:00:24,799 when we're born we're born with the 1426 01:00:27,030 --> 01:00:26,559 inherent right to be able to do what we 1427 01:00:29,349 --> 01:00:27,040 feel 1428 01:00:30,390 --> 01:00:29,359 isn't necessary and important for 1429 01:00:33,510 --> 01:00:30,400 ourselves for our 1430 01:00:34,390 --> 01:00:33,520 safety and happiness and that was taken 1431 01:00:37,589 --> 01:00:34,400 from them 1432 01:00:40,390 --> 01:00:37,599 that night and series of nights after 1433 01:00:41,510 --> 01:00:40,400 thereafter due to emotional drama and 1434 01:00:44,789 --> 01:00:41,520 more 1435 01:00:47,750 --> 01:00:44,799 and um so when people like phyllis 1436 01:00:50,630 --> 01:00:47,760 klaus come into the picture it's really 1437 01:00:52,950 --> 01:00:50,640 sort of their duty and their job 1438 01:00:54,069 --> 01:00:52,960 as a disinformant to make sure the 1439 01:00:56,230 --> 01:00:54,079 public doesn't get 1440 01:00:57,829 --> 01:00:56,240 even a whiff of this kind of terror that 1441 01:00:59,430 --> 01:00:57,839 they went through 1442 01:01:01,589 --> 01:00:59,440 i wanted to bring something to your 1443 01:01:05,750 --> 01:01:01,599 attention by the way kathleen 1444 01:01:07,670 --> 01:01:05,760 and that is and i wanted to ask if you 1445 01:01:10,549 --> 01:01:07,680 agree with this 1446 01:01:11,349 --> 01:01:10,559 and that is it appears as though this 1447 01:01:16,069 --> 01:01:11,359 phenomena 1448 01:01:19,030 --> 01:01:16,079 more 1449 01:01:19,430 --> 01:01:19,040 are extremely multi-dimensional so much 1450 01:01:22,710 --> 01:01:19,440 so 1451 01:01:24,710 --> 01:01:22,720 that traditional science is not really 1452 01:01:28,309 --> 01:01:24,720 up to the task 1453 01:01:32,630 --> 01:01:28,319 of facing the challenges 1454 01:01:35,109 --> 01:01:32,640 of it and in addition to that 1455 01:01:37,670 --> 01:01:35,119 that there's part of the phenomena that 1456 01:01:40,549 --> 01:01:37,680 might yield to science 1457 01:01:42,309 --> 01:01:40,559 only if they wanted to do you agree with 1458 01:01:45,670 --> 01:01:42,319 that 1459 01:01:50,710 --> 01:01:45,680 why 1460 01:01:53,910 --> 01:01:50,720 we have used different terminology now 1461 01:01:56,069 --> 01:01:53,920 gone from flying discs as they called 1462 01:01:59,430 --> 01:01:56,079 them in the 1940s 1463 01:02:02,950 --> 01:01:59,440 to ufos 1464 01:02:06,549 --> 01:02:02,960 and unidentified flying objects to now 1465 01:02:09,950 --> 01:02:06,559 uaps unidentified aerial phenomena 1466 01:02:12,150 --> 01:02:09,960 because it is phenomena and way back in 1467 01:02:14,950 --> 01:02:12,160 1952 1468 01:02:16,630 --> 01:02:14,960 major general john alexander held a 1469 01:02:19,270 --> 01:02:16,640 press conference 1470 01:02:19,990 --> 01:02:19,280 at the pentagon it was the largest press 1471 01:02:23,589 --> 01:02:20,000 conference 1472 01:02:27,430 --> 01:02:23,599 since the end of world war ii and he 1473 01:02:30,309 --> 01:02:27,440 uh said in the his opening remarks 1474 01:02:30,710 --> 01:02:30,319 that these things have been seen in the 1475 01:02:34,230 --> 01:02:30,720 air 1476 01:02:36,710 --> 01:02:34,240 dating back to biblical times they come 1477 01:02:40,309 --> 01:02:36,720 back about once every century 1478 01:02:45,109 --> 01:02:40,319 they're reported and then they go away 1479 01:02:49,190 --> 01:02:45,119 and uh he said that they came back in 1480 01:02:52,549 --> 01:02:49,200 the 20th century and they're still here 1481 01:02:54,630 --> 01:02:52,559 and that the air force was studying this 1482 01:02:56,390 --> 01:02:54,640 very carefully they weren't getting 1483 01:02:57,670 --> 01:02:56,400 upset they were doing it very 1484 01:03:00,069 --> 01:02:57,680 methodically 1485 01:03:00,950 --> 01:03:00,079 but he said the only thing that can 1486 01:03:05,430 --> 01:03:00,960 explain this 1487 01:03:08,470 --> 01:03:05,440 is phenomena now um 1488 01:03:11,029 --> 01:03:08,480 part of this phenomenon 1489 01:03:11,910 --> 01:03:11,039 or phenomena there's a whole other 1490 01:03:14,390 --> 01:03:11,920 psychic 1491 01:03:15,750 --> 01:03:14,400 or psychological dimension to it that 1492 01:03:19,270 --> 01:03:15,760 not even 1493 01:03:20,549 --> 01:03:19,280 psychology can come close to with 1494 01:03:22,870 --> 01:03:20,559 regards to 1495 01:03:24,069 --> 01:03:22,880 scrutinizing it which is quite 1496 01:03:26,309 --> 01:03:24,079 compelling 1497 01:03:28,309 --> 01:03:26,319 um so on the one hand humans have to 1498 01:03:30,190 --> 01:03:28,319 grapple with the fact 1499 01:03:31,910 --> 01:03:30,200 or the possibility that this 1500 01:03:33,670 --> 01:03:31,920 multi-dimensional 1501 01:03:35,029 --> 01:03:33,680 fill in the blank whatever you want to 1502 01:03:38,230 --> 01:03:35,039 call it 1503 01:03:39,750 --> 01:03:38,240 aside from phenomena uh 1504 01:03:41,510 --> 01:03:39,760 which has probably been happening for 1505 01:03:44,710 --> 01:03:41,520 millions of years 1506 01:03:48,549 --> 01:03:44,720 yes what well the 1507 01:03:52,549 --> 01:03:48,559 part of the issue is our minds 1508 01:03:55,430 --> 01:03:52,559 can't seem to wrap itself around 1509 01:03:58,069 --> 01:03:55,440 the phenomena in its entirety and that's 1510 01:04:01,190 --> 01:03:58,079 kind of a grandiose thing to say but 1511 01:04:01,910 --> 01:04:01,200 you know there's hundreds of thousands 1512 01:04:04,150 --> 01:04:01,920 of 1513 01:04:05,510 --> 01:04:04,160 abductees contactees witnesses 1514 01:04:07,349 --> 01:04:05,520 experiencers 1515 01:04:10,390 --> 01:04:07,359 who have all complained and rightfully 1516 01:04:13,510 --> 01:04:10,400 so that they have ptsd from 1517 01:04:15,029 --> 01:04:13,520 their experiences some have been good 1518 01:04:17,029 --> 01:04:15,039 experiences but 1519 01:04:19,750 --> 01:04:17,039 uh there have been plenty who have 1520 01:04:21,430 --> 01:04:19,760 plenty meaning people who have had 1521 01:04:23,029 --> 01:04:21,440 tremendous issues in their lives that 1522 01:04:24,230 --> 01:04:23,039 they can't seem to get over because they 1523 01:04:27,349 --> 01:04:24,240 were exposed 1524 01:04:30,630 --> 01:04:27,359 to it and so 1525 01:04:32,309 --> 01:04:30,640 you have had the privilege and honor of 1526 01:04:35,109 --> 01:04:32,319 attending to people 1527 01:04:37,910 --> 01:04:35,119 in a very caring way and part of your 1528 01:04:39,270 --> 01:04:37,920 job is being a professional listener 1529 01:04:42,390 --> 01:04:39,280 and one thing i like to let our 1530 01:04:45,270 --> 01:04:42,400 listeners know that kathleen has a very 1531 01:04:47,750 --> 01:04:45,280 astute and acute skill set out 1532 01:04:48,549 --> 01:04:47,760 is listening and that's something that 1533 01:04:51,029 --> 01:04:48,559 most people 1534 01:04:51,910 --> 01:04:51,039 don't have and that is the ability to 1535 01:04:53,589 --> 01:04:51,920 actually listen 1536 01:04:55,670 --> 01:04:53,599 very carefully to what people have to 1537 01:04:58,150 --> 01:04:55,680 say 1538 01:05:01,670 --> 01:04:58,160 so i wanted to ask you because people 1539 01:05:04,950 --> 01:05:01,680 have been so highly traumatized 1540 01:05:07,029 --> 01:05:04,960 by these by this phenomena 1541 01:05:08,549 --> 01:05:07,039 how have you been able to help people 1542 01:05:11,990 --> 01:05:08,559 come to terms 1543 01:05:14,710 --> 01:05:12,000 with this very multi-dimensional 1544 01:05:18,150 --> 01:05:14,720 psychological dimension to this 1545 01:05:23,270 --> 01:05:21,829 well i think that many many people that 1546 01:05:26,309 --> 01:05:23,280 i've worked with 1547 01:05:28,870 --> 01:05:26,319 uh traumatized because they think 1548 01:05:29,910 --> 01:05:28,880 that they've been taken to craft and 1549 01:05:33,750 --> 01:05:29,920 treated like 1550 01:05:36,390 --> 01:05:33,760 lab rats and they feel that this 1551 01:05:37,270 --> 01:05:36,400 is abusive intrusive terrible things 1552 01:05:40,710 --> 01:05:37,280 have happened 1553 01:05:43,990 --> 01:05:40,720 but they can't remember and when i 1554 01:05:51,349 --> 01:05:47,190 especially when i 1555 01:05:54,870 --> 01:05:51,359 tell them you know i i'm not a licensed 1556 01:05:56,150 --> 01:05:54,880 uh psychotherapist i would like before i 1557 01:06:00,309 --> 01:05:56,160 work with you 1558 01:06:05,270 --> 01:06:00,319 to uh please see a licensed 1559 01:06:09,589 --> 01:06:05,280 therapist who might use uh 1560 01:06:13,109 --> 01:06:09,599 uh a technique using rapid eye movement 1561 01:06:16,470 --> 01:06:13,119 so that you can 1562 01:06:21,029 --> 01:06:16,480 talk about this and you'll even remember 1563 01:06:24,549 --> 01:06:21,039 part of this with a licensed 1564 01:06:26,230 --> 01:06:24,559 psychotherapist and people will go 1565 01:06:27,990 --> 01:06:26,240 and they will do that and they'll 1566 01:06:31,829 --> 01:06:28,000 remember a little bit 1567 01:06:35,430 --> 01:06:31,839 when they have worked through the trauma 1568 01:06:38,309 --> 01:06:35,440 then they can come to me and i will work 1569 01:06:40,789 --> 01:06:38,319 with them in hypnosis so that they can 1570 01:06:41,990 --> 01:06:40,799 remember more if that's what they wish 1571 01:06:46,230 --> 01:06:42,000 to do 1572 01:06:49,510 --> 01:06:46,240 but uh what i'm finding is that 1573 01:06:52,789 --> 01:06:49,520 people are not having these terrible 1574 01:06:55,510 --> 01:06:52,799 memories of contact that we've 1575 01:06:58,390 --> 01:06:55,520 read about and i'm i don't know how i 1576 01:07:00,870 --> 01:06:58,400 can reconcile this 1577 01:07:01,990 --> 01:07:00,880 because i'm not leading them in any way 1578 01:07:05,270 --> 01:07:02,000 in fact 1579 01:07:05,750 --> 01:07:05,280 i use forensic hypnosis which is doesn't 1580 01:07:09,029 --> 01:07:05,760 lead 1581 01:07:11,430 --> 01:07:09,039 at all and 1582 01:07:12,829 --> 01:07:11,440 it was the type of hypnosis used by law 1583 01:07:16,549 --> 01:07:12,839 enforcement 1584 01:07:19,829 --> 01:07:16,559 and but when 1585 01:07:22,150 --> 01:07:19,839 people talk with me 1586 01:07:24,789 --> 01:07:22,160 they they might set up just a 1587 01:07:26,549 --> 01:07:24,799 consultation with me to talk 1588 01:07:28,150 --> 01:07:26,559 uh there's something i don't know what 1589 01:07:31,750 --> 01:07:28,160 it is about me but 1590 01:07:32,950 --> 01:07:31,760 they lose their fear yeah i wanted to 1591 01:07:34,630 --> 01:07:32,960 talk about something 1592 01:07:36,390 --> 01:07:34,640 very briefly that happened to me that 1593 01:07:38,630 --> 01:07:36,400 i've never talked about on 1594 01:07:39,510 --> 01:07:38,640 any of our shows and that is 20 years 1595 01:07:42,549 --> 01:07:39,520 ago 1596 01:07:44,069 --> 01:07:42,559 i was in the realm of uh 1597 01:07:46,069 --> 01:07:44,079 involved in the realm of technology 1598 01:07:46,950 --> 01:07:46,079 career-wise and i went to a christmas 1599 01:07:51,670 --> 01:07:46,960 party 1600 01:07:54,390 --> 01:07:51,680 at night 1601 01:07:54,789 --> 01:07:54,400 uh it was it was during the day but it 1602 01:07:58,549 --> 01:07:54,799 turned 1603 01:08:00,630 --> 01:07:58,559 dark rather quickly and 1604 01:08:02,789 --> 01:08:00,640 a friend of mine whom i worked with at 1605 01:08:03,829 --> 01:08:02,799 that time we went out into the veranda 1606 01:08:06,230 --> 01:08:03,839 like a porch-like 1607 01:08:07,270 --> 01:08:06,240 area on the a higher story of the 1608 01:08:10,069 --> 01:08:07,280 building 1609 01:08:11,029 --> 01:08:10,079 uh where that christmas party was and we 1610 01:08:14,069 --> 01:08:11,039 looked out 1611 01:08:16,550 --> 01:08:14,079 and we both saw the same thing and 1612 01:08:17,990 --> 01:08:16,560 it was just this uh thing in the sky 1613 01:08:20,550 --> 01:08:18,000 that was circular 1614 01:08:22,229 --> 01:08:20,560 with a strange line going around on the 1615 01:08:24,309 --> 01:08:22,239 inside of it and another line staying 1616 01:08:27,510 --> 01:08:24,319 stationary it looked just like a 1617 01:08:29,349 --> 01:08:27,520 a clock and it was an x-ray color and i 1618 01:08:31,430 --> 01:08:29,359 didn't ask him leading questions i just 1619 01:08:32,070 --> 01:08:31,440 asked him if he saw anything in the sky 1620 01:08:35,590 --> 01:08:32,080 and 1621 01:08:39,430 --> 01:08:35,600 saw the same thing i did 1622 01:08:42,789 --> 01:08:39,440 and then i we stared at it 1623 01:08:44,870 --> 01:08:42,799 with our mouths open and uh just 1624 01:08:47,349 --> 01:08:44,880 thought that was very strange that the 1625 01:08:49,030 --> 01:08:47,359 people on the ground were laughing at us 1626 01:08:51,829 --> 01:08:49,040 and then none of them were looking up at 1627 01:08:52,309 --> 01:08:51,839 the sky and they were couples that were 1628 01:08:55,829 --> 01:08:52,319 laying 1629 01:08:58,950 --> 01:08:55,839 um on the ground in the grass 1630 01:09:00,470 --> 01:08:58,960 um there was a long length of grass and 1631 01:09:04,070 --> 01:09:00,480 that comes into play later 1632 01:09:06,149 --> 01:09:04,080 anyway uh we uh 1633 01:09:07,910 --> 01:09:06,159 i told him i was gonna leave and the 1634 01:09:09,669 --> 01:09:07,920 party didn't hold any value to me at 1635 01:09:11,510 --> 01:09:09,679 that point i wasn't drinking neither was 1636 01:09:14,709 --> 01:09:11,520 he was not a drinker 1637 01:09:16,229 --> 01:09:14,719 and i uh walked down to my vehicle in 1638 01:09:19,430 --> 01:09:16,239 the dark 1639 01:09:19,990 --> 01:09:19,440 and when i got to by the time i got to 1640 01:09:22,630 --> 01:09:20,000 my vehicle 1641 01:09:23,910 --> 01:09:22,640 i saw a grid that was starting to light 1642 01:09:25,829 --> 01:09:23,920 up around me 1643 01:09:27,510 --> 01:09:25,839 and i hopped in my vehicle and i thought 1644 01:09:28,309 --> 01:09:27,520 oh god somebody put something in my 1645 01:09:30,070 --> 01:09:28,319 drink 1646 01:09:32,390 --> 01:09:30,080 i would like to get home before then if 1647 01:09:35,430 --> 01:09:32,400 possible if not i'll pull off and 1648 01:09:37,910 --> 01:09:35,440 and figure it out from there um 1649 01:09:40,709 --> 01:09:37,920 i felt completely sober i was dry as i 1650 01:09:43,510 --> 01:09:40,719 was driving home i didn't feel anything 1651 01:09:44,229 --> 01:09:43,520 taking over my mind in the sense of you 1652 01:09:46,309 --> 01:09:44,239 know like 1653 01:09:49,189 --> 01:09:46,319 feeling like i had drunk anything like 1654 01:09:51,749 --> 01:09:49,199 that would make me feel 1655 01:09:53,590 --> 01:09:51,759 odd the only thing i noticed was 1656 01:09:55,990 --> 01:09:53,600 visually i saw this grid starting to 1657 01:09:58,470 --> 01:09:56,000 light up brighter and brighter around me 1658 01:10:00,870 --> 01:09:58,480 and when i say grid i mean a grid that 1659 01:10:02,550 --> 01:10:00,880 bent around me not just like straight up 1660 01:10:05,590 --> 01:10:02,560 and down but 1661 01:10:07,030 --> 01:10:05,600 started to swirl around me and i got 1662 01:10:10,550 --> 01:10:07,040 home 1663 01:10:16,709 --> 01:10:10,560 like a 1664 01:10:18,470 --> 01:10:16,719 and i didn't say anything to the 1665 01:10:19,189 --> 01:10:18,480 individual who was at my house at the 1666 01:10:21,189 --> 01:10:19,199 time 1667 01:10:23,110 --> 01:10:21,199 and the house was quite dark and the 1668 01:10:24,709 --> 01:10:23,120 individual that was there was actually 1669 01:10:26,229 --> 01:10:24,719 good friends with a few of the people i 1670 01:10:27,990 --> 01:10:26,239 worked with and asked me how the party 1671 01:10:31,189 --> 01:10:28,000 was they said it was fine 1672 01:10:33,990 --> 01:10:31,199 and i stayed very quiet and um 1673 01:10:34,310 --> 01:10:34,000 i one thing i've always made sure was to 1674 01:10:36,709 --> 01:10:34,320 not 1675 01:10:38,630 --> 01:10:36,719 ask people leading questions depending 1676 01:10:40,390 --> 01:10:38,640 on if it's an interview but 1677 01:10:41,830 --> 01:10:40,400 if there's something going on not to ask 1678 01:10:43,270 --> 01:10:41,840 some leading questions so i didn't say 1679 01:10:46,310 --> 01:10:43,280 anything at all 1680 01:10:48,550 --> 01:10:46,320 and i just figured it was in my head and 1681 01:10:50,070 --> 01:10:48,560 uh we were very quiet and he said what 1682 01:10:54,149 --> 01:10:50,080 is that and i said what 1683 01:10:56,790 --> 01:10:54,159 what is what and he said it's a grid 1684 01:10:58,310 --> 01:10:56,800 that's a grid and i said you see it too 1685 01:11:00,310 --> 01:10:58,320 he said yeah 1686 01:11:02,709 --> 01:11:00,320 and he said he saw little geometric 1687 01:11:05,510 --> 01:11:02,719 forms swirling around 1688 01:11:05,830 --> 01:11:05,520 uh some were octagonal some were kind of 1689 01:11:08,950 --> 01:11:05,840 like 1690 01:11:09,669 --> 01:11:08,960 uh pyramid shaped and squared and we all 1691 01:11:11,350 --> 01:11:09,679 saw we 1692 01:11:13,350 --> 01:11:11,360 he and i saw the same things they were 1693 01:11:14,870 --> 01:11:13,360 moving around like little fish swimming 1694 01:11:18,390 --> 01:11:14,880 in an ocean 1695 01:11:19,750 --> 01:11:18,400 and he then just grew tired of and went 1696 01:11:21,669 --> 01:11:19,760 to bed 1697 01:11:22,790 --> 01:11:21,679 uh but that was it that was how he 1698 01:11:26,070 --> 01:11:22,800 responded to it 1699 01:11:29,110 --> 01:11:26,080 and he was done with it um 1700 01:11:31,430 --> 01:11:29,120 i went to bed and as soon as i closed my 1701 01:11:33,830 --> 01:11:31,440 eyes i was sent down a tunnel that was 1702 01:11:35,910 --> 01:11:33,840 winding and then i saw something that 1703 01:11:37,750 --> 01:11:35,920 i'll never forget that i i really don't 1704 01:11:40,709 --> 01:11:37,760 want to describe but i can tell you i 1705 01:11:44,390 --> 01:11:40,719 was taken somewhere and i did see things 1706 01:11:46,070 --> 01:11:44,400 and what i wanted to kind of talk to you 1707 01:11:48,550 --> 01:11:46,080 about is 1708 01:11:50,470 --> 01:11:48,560 there's an element an element of the 1709 01:11:52,229 --> 01:11:50,480 phenomena 1710 01:11:54,070 --> 01:11:52,239 where people can be abducted through 1711 01:11:56,709 --> 01:11:54,080 their minds because i 1712 01:11:59,110 --> 01:11:56,719 didn't give my permission to go anywhere 1713 01:12:02,149 --> 01:11:59,120 yet i was taken somewhere that night 1714 01:12:06,229 --> 01:12:02,159 and i saw that grid for 10 1715 01:12:07,030 --> 01:12:06,239 years wow for 10 years i saw that stupid 1716 01:12:08,870 --> 01:12:07,040 grid 1717 01:12:10,229 --> 01:12:08,880 and there's a there's a form of 1718 01:12:13,270 --> 01:12:10,239 technology 1719 01:12:15,030 --> 01:12:13,280 that it had and uh it would take me a 1720 01:12:15,910 --> 01:12:15,040 really long time to explain it which i'm 1721 01:12:19,350 --> 01:12:15,920 not going to 1722 01:12:20,550 --> 01:12:19,360 not on the show but i couldn't do 1723 01:12:23,030 --> 01:12:20,560 anything with it 1724 01:12:23,669 --> 01:12:23,040 nothing meaningful to me in my life that 1725 01:12:28,709 --> 01:12:23,679 is 1726 01:12:32,550 --> 01:12:28,719 nothing i could do with it 1727 01:12:34,950 --> 01:12:32,560 now uh did i do stuff with it yes i did 1728 01:12:36,790 --> 01:12:34,960 but still i got to the point where you 1729 01:12:37,590 --> 01:12:36,800 know you wake up in the morning you see 1730 01:12:41,590 --> 01:12:37,600 it 1731 01:12:43,990 --> 01:12:41,600 the day because you know you're working 1732 01:12:46,070 --> 01:12:44,000 and you see stuff you see people walk by 1733 01:12:48,870 --> 01:12:46,080 okay stuff breaks right through it 1734 01:12:49,750 --> 01:12:48,880 it wears away but at night boom it comes 1735 01:12:53,430 --> 01:12:49,760 right back 1736 01:12:55,830 --> 01:12:53,440 and i finally had to beg it please 1737 01:12:57,110 --> 01:12:55,840 just go away i don't want to see you 1738 01:12:58,470 --> 01:12:57,120 anymore 1739 01:13:00,310 --> 01:12:58,480 i don't know if it was a form of 1740 01:13:02,630 --> 01:13:00,320 artificial intelligence 1741 01:13:04,070 --> 01:13:02,640 that was just that or artificial 1742 01:13:07,189 --> 01:13:04,080 intelligence related to 1743 01:13:11,350 --> 01:13:07,199 ets but it was something that had 1744 01:13:15,030 --> 01:13:11,360 a ability to move on its own 1745 01:13:15,590 --> 01:13:15,040 in its own fashion so anyway i know what 1746 01:13:17,510 --> 01:13:15,600 it's like 1747 01:13:18,950 --> 01:13:17,520 to be abducted in the sense of through 1748 01:13:22,070 --> 01:13:18,960 the mind without 1749 01:13:24,630 --> 01:13:22,080 giving permission i can tell my 1750 01:13:26,550 --> 01:13:24,640 listeners and you this 1751 01:13:29,110 --> 01:13:26,560 there's something very very strange 1752 01:13:33,030 --> 01:13:29,120 about realizing that you don't have 1753 01:13:36,470 --> 01:13:33,040 the right to to be who you are 1754 01:13:38,550 --> 01:13:36,480 and be autonomous because 1755 01:13:39,830 --> 01:13:38,560 people take that for granted and 1756 01:13:42,550 --> 01:13:39,840 rightfully so 1757 01:13:44,310 --> 01:13:42,560 but when it happens to you in that kind 1758 01:13:45,830 --> 01:13:44,320 of psychological fashion 1759 01:13:47,270 --> 01:13:45,840 and your rights are being taken away and 1760 01:13:49,990 --> 01:13:47,280 you're being forced to look at things 1761 01:13:53,189 --> 01:13:50,000 that you didn't give permission 1762 01:13:56,630 --> 01:13:53,199 to look at it's a very an 1763 01:13:59,590 --> 01:13:56,640 unnerving experience um and 1764 01:14:01,350 --> 01:13:59,600 um it's never gone away and i think in 1765 01:14:03,750 --> 01:14:01,360 part that's probably why i do 1766 01:14:05,750 --> 01:14:03,760 these interviews so i'm really glad i 1767 01:14:08,390 --> 01:14:05,760 was able to share that with you 1768 01:14:09,270 --> 01:14:08,400 well thank you for sharing that did you 1769 01:14:11,189 --> 01:14:09,280 see this 1770 01:14:13,590 --> 01:14:11,199 only when you closed your eyes or when 1771 01:14:15,270 --> 01:14:13,600 your eyes were wide open too whether my 1772 01:14:18,870 --> 01:14:15,280 eyes were open or closed 1773 01:14:20,550 --> 01:14:18,880 is that so yeah and i noticed that if i 1774 01:14:22,870 --> 01:14:20,560 was over water 1775 01:14:23,830 --> 01:14:22,880 i could actually see things in color 1776 01:14:27,350 --> 01:14:23,840 like other 1777 01:14:29,110 --> 01:14:27,360 other locations and places i had never 1778 01:14:32,870 --> 01:14:29,120 been to 1779 01:14:35,990 --> 01:14:32,880 which was very strange and 1780 01:14:39,750 --> 01:14:36,000 so the grid was in an x-ray 1781 01:14:41,110 --> 01:14:39,760 white color but then after a while i 1782 01:14:43,830 --> 01:14:41,120 started seeing 1783 01:14:45,669 --> 01:14:43,840 in the very beginning pinpoints of 1784 01:14:48,229 --> 01:14:45,679 millions of different colors 1785 01:14:49,990 --> 01:14:48,239 they were probably primary colors but 1786 01:14:51,510 --> 01:14:50,000 but they were all mixed together and 1787 01:14:54,310 --> 01:14:51,520 then those pins 1788 01:14:55,189 --> 01:14:54,320 of colors became those dots became lines 1789 01:14:58,390 --> 01:14:55,199 that would embed 1790 01:14:59,030 --> 01:14:58,400 themselves and move with the other x-ray 1791 01:15:02,470 --> 01:14:59,040 lines 1792 01:15:05,350 --> 01:15:02,480 just in tandem 1793 01:15:06,149 --> 01:15:05,360 turned all different colors and that 1794 01:15:09,510 --> 01:15:06,159 would 1795 01:15:12,709 --> 01:15:09,520 change 1796 01:15:14,310 --> 01:15:12,719 randomly from x-ray colors to the 1797 01:15:17,350 --> 01:15:14,320 vibrant different 1798 01:15:19,669 --> 01:15:17,360 purple blue red green yellow all the 1799 01:15:22,550 --> 01:15:19,679 different colors you could imagine 1800 01:15:24,149 --> 01:15:22,560 and i would see geometric forms and some 1801 01:15:26,229 --> 01:15:24,159 actually had a life of their own like 1802 01:15:30,790 --> 01:15:26,239 they actually had a consciousness 1803 01:15:34,709 --> 01:15:30,800 and they would um communicate with me 1804 01:15:38,790 --> 01:15:34,719 and some had tasks tasks to do 1805 01:15:41,270 --> 01:15:38,800 and they didn't seem very um 1806 01:15:41,910 --> 01:15:41,280 very excitable they were just used to 1807 01:15:45,910 --> 01:15:41,920 doing their 1808 01:15:46,310 --> 01:15:45,920 their tasks and there was no one to talk 1809 01:15:50,229 --> 01:15:46,320 to 1810 01:15:52,950 --> 01:15:50,239 weren't scientists either 1811 01:15:54,630 --> 01:15:52,960 you know i had friends that were blue 1812 01:15:56,310 --> 01:15:54,640 collar and white collar workers and 1813 01:15:57,750 --> 01:15:56,320 everything in between and 1814 01:15:59,270 --> 01:15:57,760 you know when you talk to people about 1815 01:16:00,310 --> 01:15:59,280 this i know you know this better than 1816 01:16:02,709 --> 01:16:00,320 anybody 1817 01:16:04,470 --> 01:16:02,719 and so does frank but um there's really 1818 01:16:07,189 --> 01:16:04,480 nothing they can do for you 1819 01:16:07,750 --> 01:16:07,199 um now i did uh talk to that friend of 1820 01:16:10,470 --> 01:16:07,760 mine 1821 01:16:11,270 --> 01:16:10,480 last year and he allowed me to record 1822 01:16:15,189 --> 01:16:11,280 him 1823 01:16:17,270 --> 01:16:15,199 uh talking about how he saw that grid 1824 01:16:18,790 --> 01:16:17,280 and so really what i've come to the 1825 01:16:20,790 --> 01:16:18,800 conclusion is is 1826 01:16:21,910 --> 01:16:20,800 i'm not sure what that thing was but it 1827 01:16:23,910 --> 01:16:21,920 followed me home 1828 01:16:26,870 --> 01:16:23,920 and it decided to stay with me for a 1829 01:16:29,430 --> 01:16:26,880 while or i attached to it somehow 1830 01:16:31,750 --> 01:16:29,440 now regarding the people on the grass 1831 01:16:34,709 --> 01:16:31,760 that friend of mine who witnessed that 1832 01:16:36,310 --> 01:16:34,719 ex x-ray looking circle in the sky with 1833 01:16:38,310 --> 01:16:36,320 the line that was moving through it and 1834 01:16:41,750 --> 01:16:38,320 one staying stationary 1835 01:16:43,750 --> 01:16:41,760 um we we figured something out that was 1836 01:16:44,790 --> 01:16:43,760 quite strange and that was the cloned 1837 01:16:46,709 --> 01:16:44,800 people 1838 01:16:48,550 --> 01:16:46,719 i say clowned because they we realized 1839 01:16:50,310 --> 01:16:48,560 later it was the same couple 1840 01:16:51,590 --> 01:16:50,320 that was laying one way and then laying 1841 01:16:53,430 --> 01:16:51,600 another 1842 01:16:55,110 --> 01:16:53,440 zigzagging through the grass on the 1843 01:16:57,830 --> 01:16:55,120 ground they were 1844 01:16:59,910 --> 01:16:57,840 same couple over and over again we went 1845 01:17:02,950 --> 01:16:59,920 back to that hotel 1846 01:17:05,990 --> 01:17:02,960 up in the same exact spot we had been in 1847 01:17:07,270 --> 01:17:06,000 we looked down and the grass was a tiny 1848 01:17:09,030 --> 01:17:07,280 little spot 1849 01:17:10,310 --> 01:17:09,040 it wasn't even capable of holding but 1850 01:17:13,430 --> 01:17:10,320 maybe one couple 1851 01:17:15,510 --> 01:17:13,440 yet we saw a dozen or so and that 1852 01:17:16,630 --> 01:17:15,520 strip of grass had shrunk to a tiny 1853 01:17:18,149 --> 01:17:16,640 little area 1854 01:17:20,149 --> 01:17:18,159 and it would have been an impossibility 1855 01:17:21,830 --> 01:17:20,159 to have seen on the ground what we did 1856 01:17:23,350 --> 01:17:21,840 to this day we still don't even know 1857 01:17:25,030 --> 01:17:23,360 what it was that we saw there on the 1858 01:17:29,110 --> 01:17:25,040 ground nor up in the sky 1859 01:17:31,750 --> 01:17:29,120 now i did ask him i said to him i said i 1860 01:17:32,870 --> 01:17:31,760 i know you saw something what did you 1861 01:17:36,229 --> 01:17:32,880 see 1862 01:17:40,470 --> 01:17:36,239 and he told me very reluctantly 1863 01:17:42,709 --> 01:17:40,480 um he saw 1864 01:17:43,990 --> 01:17:42,719 license plates that were backwards for 1865 01:17:47,110 --> 01:17:44,000 about a week 1866 01:17:48,870 --> 01:17:47,120 and i've come to a conclusion i'm sorry 1867 01:17:51,430 --> 01:17:48,880 a conclusion and a theory regarding what 1868 01:17:51,910 --> 01:17:51,440 it could have been now the x-ray lights 1869 01:17:55,350 --> 01:17:51,920 that i 1870 01:17:57,669 --> 01:17:55,360 saw were the exact luminescent white 1871 01:17:58,870 --> 01:17:57,679 of a license plate that glows in the 1872 01:18:01,270 --> 01:17:58,880 dark 1873 01:18:02,550 --> 01:18:01,280 so my understanding about eyes and i 1874 01:18:04,229 --> 01:18:02,560 don't mind being wrong perhaps a 1875 01:18:05,990 --> 01:18:04,239 listener can correct me or not 1876 01:18:06,210 --> 01:18:06,000 is when people look at things they see 1877 01:18:07,430 --> 01:18:06,220 them 1878 01:18:10,390 --> 01:18:07,440 [Music] 1879 01:18:12,229 --> 01:18:10,400 reverse or upside down and then the the 1880 01:18:12,709 --> 01:18:12,239 optics of the eye or the mind turns it 1881 01:18:15,110 --> 01:18:12,719 back 1882 01:18:15,990 --> 01:18:15,120 another way so we end up seeing it the 1883 01:18:19,830 --> 01:18:16,000 correct 1884 01:18:21,910 --> 01:18:19,840 way up now i think what happened was is 1885 01:18:23,510 --> 01:18:21,920 that luminescent light on the license 1886 01:18:25,430 --> 01:18:23,520 plate tripped up his eyes 1887 01:18:28,390 --> 01:18:25,440 and it didn't allow his eyes to turn it 1888 01:18:31,590 --> 01:18:28,400 the right way it should have been 1889 01:18:34,070 --> 01:18:31,600 and it just kept it backwards 1890 01:18:35,910 --> 01:18:34,080 and um i said i know you saw more than 1891 01:18:37,510 --> 01:18:35,920 that what else did you see 1892 01:18:39,110 --> 01:18:37,520 and he put his head down like he was a 1893 01:18:40,550 --> 01:18:39,120 little boy in trouble like he was going 1894 01:18:42,390 --> 01:18:40,560 to the principal's office 1895 01:18:44,550 --> 01:18:42,400 and he was one of my best friends i knew 1896 01:18:45,590 --> 01:18:44,560 him very well and he refused to talk 1897 01:18:48,950 --> 01:18:45,600 about it 1898 01:18:50,790 --> 01:18:48,960 wow so i just thought that was kind of 1899 01:18:52,709 --> 01:18:50,800 interesting this phenomena 1900 01:18:54,229 --> 01:18:52,719 when a person is exposed to it and it 1901 01:18:56,229 --> 01:18:54,239 can come in any way 1902 01:18:57,990 --> 01:18:56,239 in many different shapes and forms i 1903 01:18:59,830 --> 01:18:58,000 know you've heard about 1904 01:19:01,350 --> 01:18:59,840 many more than we have frank and i 1905 01:19:03,350 --> 01:19:01,360 because of your experiences 1906 01:19:04,630 --> 01:19:03,360 of listening to people over many many 1907 01:19:07,430 --> 01:19:04,640 decades 1908 01:19:07,990 --> 01:19:07,440 thousands of people it it comes in so 1909 01:19:10,229 --> 01:19:08,000 many different 1910 01:19:11,590 --> 01:19:10,239 shapes and forms it might even come in 1911 01:19:14,149 --> 01:19:11,600 forms that we are not 1912 01:19:15,510 --> 01:19:14,159 privy to in a conscious manner but an 1913 01:19:17,430 --> 01:19:15,520 unconscious manner 1914 01:19:18,630 --> 01:19:17,440 so we might actually be dealing with 1915 01:19:22,070 --> 01:19:18,640 witnessing 1916 01:19:25,830 --> 01:19:22,080 um this phenomena more than we realize 1917 01:19:29,750 --> 01:19:25,840 in mass yes 1918 01:19:33,030 --> 01:19:29,760 and you know you are the first person 1919 01:19:36,470 --> 01:19:33,040 that i have spoken with that has had 1920 01:19:39,750 --> 01:19:36,480 the kind of experience that you had i 1921 01:19:40,149 --> 01:19:39,760 i have spoken with several people who 1922 01:19:42,950 --> 01:19:40,159 were 1923 01:19:44,390 --> 01:19:42,960 in their 50s when they had their first 1924 01:19:47,750 --> 01:19:44,400 experience 1925 01:19:50,709 --> 01:19:47,760 and whatever this was attached 1926 01:19:51,669 --> 01:19:50,719 to their minds so that every time they 1927 01:19:54,550 --> 01:19:51,679 closed their 1928 01:19:56,870 --> 01:19:54,560 eyes they were someplace else they were 1929 01:19:59,350 --> 01:19:56,880 in a tunnel 1930 01:20:00,470 --> 01:19:59,360 under the ground and things were 1931 01:20:04,149 --> 01:20:00,480 happening that were 1932 01:20:07,830 --> 01:20:04,159 not very good they were horrific in fact 1933 01:20:08,550 --> 01:20:07,840 but i have never spoken with anyone who 1934 01:20:12,870 --> 01:20:08,560 had the 1935 01:20:15,189 --> 01:20:12,880 grid uh kind of experience that you had 1936 01:20:15,990 --> 01:20:15,199 a member of mufon's experience or 1937 01:20:19,910 --> 01:20:16,000 research 1938 01:20:23,669 --> 01:20:19,920 team uh who i was 1939 01:20:26,950 --> 01:20:23,679 their director for 10 years and 1940 01:20:29,750 --> 01:20:26,960 actually had set the team up due to 1941 01:20:30,229 --> 01:20:29,760 time constraints stepped down recently 1942 01:20:33,350 --> 01:20:30,239 but 1943 01:20:34,550 --> 01:20:33,360 one of our members wanted to have an 1944 01:20:37,990 --> 01:20:34,560 experience 1945 01:20:40,709 --> 01:20:38,000 and kept asking for it and he had 1946 01:20:42,070 --> 01:20:40,719 something very strange that happened 1947 01:20:44,790 --> 01:20:42,080 where he was 1948 01:20:45,189 --> 01:20:44,800 in his bedroom at night with his wife 1949 01:20:48,629 --> 01:20:45,199 both 1950 01:20:52,629 --> 01:20:48,639 saw this but it was as if the wall 1951 01:20:56,229 --> 01:20:52,639 opened up and a bright light 1952 01:20:59,910 --> 01:20:56,239 came through and then they could 1953 01:21:00,950 --> 01:20:59,920 see what appeared to be a room next to 1954 01:21:03,430 --> 01:21:00,960 their room 1955 01:21:05,510 --> 01:21:03,440 but there wasn't room for a room to be 1956 01:21:08,629 --> 01:21:05,520 there because the next house 1957 01:21:11,189 --> 01:21:08,639 was only the width of an alley away 1958 01:21:12,310 --> 01:21:11,199 but it seemed like a large room and 1959 01:21:16,070 --> 01:21:12,320 these non-human 1960 01:21:19,110 --> 01:21:16,080 entities came and stepped out of their 1961 01:21:22,790 --> 01:21:19,120 environment and in to his and 1962 01:21:23,830 --> 01:21:22,800 her environment and and proceeded to do 1963 01:21:28,629 --> 01:21:23,840 tests 1964 01:21:31,910 --> 01:21:28,639 on him to to remove fluids from his body 1965 01:21:35,030 --> 01:21:31,920 and very very strange so 1966 01:21:39,030 --> 01:21:35,040 uh you know it just seems that 1967 01:21:39,910 --> 01:21:39,040 things are there is definitely more than 1968 01:21:43,270 --> 01:21:39,920 one thing 1969 01:21:46,550 --> 01:21:43,280 occurring and we're beginning to wonder 1970 01:21:49,830 --> 01:21:46,560 if the typical 1971 01:21:51,910 --> 01:21:49,840 ufo abduction events that we have become 1972 01:21:55,350 --> 01:21:51,920 familiar with such as 1973 01:21:58,629 --> 01:21:55,360 having sperm and overtaken on craft 1974 01:22:01,669 --> 01:21:58,639 that sort of thing um is coming to an 1975 01:22:03,350 --> 01:22:01,679 end uh members of our team 1976 01:22:04,709 --> 01:22:03,360 have been talking about that there are 1977 01:22:07,910 --> 01:22:04,719 45 1978 01:22:11,350 --> 01:22:07,920 members of the team and most 1979 01:22:14,470 --> 01:22:11,360 say that they really haven't received 1980 01:22:15,030 --> 01:22:14,480 recent reports of people being treated 1981 01:22:17,590 --> 01:22:15,040 in 1982 01:22:18,950 --> 01:22:17,600 the manner that they used to be such as 1983 01:22:22,149 --> 01:22:18,960 the way betty and barney 1984 01:22:26,149 --> 01:22:22,159 hill were um so 1985 01:22:28,070 --> 01:22:26,159 this is something interesting to look at 1986 01:22:29,270 --> 01:22:28,080 it appears that they're beginning a new 1987 01:22:32,790 --> 01:22:29,280 program 1988 01:22:36,229 --> 01:22:32,800 and what is exactly is going on 1989 01:22:38,149 --> 01:22:36,239 ray hernandez who started the edgar 1990 01:22:40,790 --> 01:22:38,159 mitchell free foundation 1991 01:22:42,310 --> 01:22:40,800 and i was on the board of directors of 1992 01:22:45,510 --> 01:22:42,320 that foundation 1993 01:22:48,790 --> 01:22:45,520 had he called it a matrix kind of 1994 01:22:50,149 --> 01:22:48,800 reality that he ended up in i don't know 1995 01:22:53,669 --> 01:22:50,159 if this is similar to 1996 01:22:54,390 --> 01:22:53,679 what you had but it didn't remain with 1997 01:22:56,950 --> 01:22:54,400 him 1998 01:22:58,709 --> 01:22:56,960 the way it did with you yeah but he 1999 01:23:00,550 --> 01:22:58,719 continued to have extraordinary 2000 01:23:03,030 --> 01:23:00,560 experiences 2001 01:23:03,750 --> 01:23:03,040 i think the only thing that i will 2002 01:23:05,750 --> 01:23:03,760 mention 2003 01:23:07,189 --> 01:23:05,760 about having gone down a tunnel when i 2004 01:23:09,910 --> 01:23:07,199 closed my eyes 2005 01:23:12,870 --> 01:23:09,920 and i did want to mention when i went to 2006 01:23:15,510 --> 01:23:12,880 bed and i closed my eyes that night 2007 01:23:16,470 --> 01:23:15,520 i kept trying to shake off the grid 2008 01:23:18,790 --> 01:23:16,480 naturally 2009 01:23:20,709 --> 01:23:18,800 because i it wasn't it wasn't natural to 2010 01:23:21,590 --> 01:23:20,719 me nor did i feel it practical or 2011 01:23:24,470 --> 01:23:21,600 necessary 2012 01:23:25,750 --> 01:23:24,480 to have it attached to me so i kept 2013 01:23:27,990 --> 01:23:25,760 trying to sort of 2014 01:23:29,430 --> 01:23:28,000 tell it you know and myself okay that's 2015 01:23:30,149 --> 01:23:29,440 enough i don't i don't need to see this 2016 01:23:31,990 --> 01:23:30,159 anymore it's 2017 01:23:33,270 --> 01:23:32,000 it's it's irrelevant and that's an 2018 01:23:35,030 --> 01:23:33,280 unnecessary to me 2019 01:23:37,510 --> 01:23:35,040 also i need to go to bed and i want to 2020 01:23:38,149 --> 01:23:37,520 go to sleep and i closed my eyes and i 2021 01:23:40,709 --> 01:23:38,159 kept 2022 01:23:43,270 --> 01:23:40,719 getting rushed it was literally going 2023 01:23:47,270 --> 01:23:43,280 down i was going down very fast 2024 01:23:50,229 --> 01:23:47,280 and down a tunnel that winded around 2025 01:23:51,510 --> 01:23:50,239 in a huge curve and i as i went down 2026 01:23:55,430 --> 01:23:51,520 this very grid 2027 01:23:58,310 --> 01:23:55,440 matrix like a tunnel 2028 01:23:59,030 --> 01:23:58,320 that i could that i couldn't get away 2029 01:24:00,550 --> 01:23:59,040 from 2030 01:24:02,070 --> 01:24:00,560 and by the way i only saw this tunnel 2031 01:24:04,470 --> 01:24:02,080 when i closed my eyes but when i opened 2032 01:24:06,310 --> 01:24:04,480 my eyes i saw the grid around me 2033 01:24:09,990 --> 01:24:06,320 when i went down this tunnel at the end 2034 01:24:12,790 --> 01:24:10,000 of it there was a geometric figure there 2035 01:24:14,390 --> 01:24:12,800 that looked at me even though it didn't 2036 01:24:16,390 --> 01:24:14,400 have any eyes 2037 01:24:17,990 --> 01:24:16,400 and we were we were right in front of 2038 01:24:19,910 --> 01:24:18,000 each other 2039 01:24:21,830 --> 01:24:19,920 um i was sort of vertical to it and 2040 01:24:23,669 --> 01:24:21,840 there was a hole next to him 2041 01:24:24,870 --> 01:24:23,679 i say him just for the sake of saying 2042 01:24:26,950 --> 01:24:24,880 that 2043 01:24:29,030 --> 01:24:26,960 but there was a hole next to him or it 2044 01:24:32,629 --> 01:24:29,040 or her whatever it was 2045 01:24:34,229 --> 01:24:32,639 and it nodded its triangular geometric 2046 01:24:36,390 --> 01:24:34,239 head at me 2047 01:24:38,709 --> 01:24:36,400 and i went through the hole as if he 2048 01:24:41,030 --> 01:24:38,719 gave me the approval to go in 2049 01:24:43,110 --> 01:24:41,040 without i didn't give myself approval 2050 01:24:44,709 --> 01:24:43,120 and as i went through the hole i said to 2051 01:24:48,149 --> 01:24:44,719 myself 2052 01:24:50,629 --> 01:24:48,159 if if i can see that thing what do 2053 01:24:52,149 --> 01:24:50,639 what do i look like to it because i'm 2054 01:24:55,590 --> 01:24:52,159 not physically walking there 2055 01:24:57,990 --> 01:24:55,600 or running or being driven down or flown 2056 01:25:00,149 --> 01:24:58,000 i'm going through my mind so what do i 2057 01:25:03,189 --> 01:25:00,159 look like to it 2058 01:25:04,229 --> 01:25:03,199 and as i went over uh i'm sorry through 2059 01:25:07,350 --> 01:25:04,239 the hole 2060 01:25:10,070 --> 01:25:07,360 i saw something that 2061 01:25:12,229 --> 01:25:10,080 it would i can't even i i will not tell 2062 01:25:15,830 --> 01:25:12,239 the story here i can tell you later 2063 01:25:19,510 --> 01:25:15,840 but it was absolutely unnatural 2064 01:25:23,990 --> 01:25:19,520 and it was out of this world it was 2065 01:25:28,709 --> 01:25:26,870 but um anyway i'm glad i was able to 2066 01:25:31,030 --> 01:25:28,719 talk to you about that thank you 2067 01:25:32,870 --> 01:25:31,040 yes and we'll have to talk later yeah 2068 01:25:35,270 --> 01:25:32,880 we'll have to talk later 2069 01:25:37,189 --> 01:25:35,280 but uh i did want to mention that you 2070 01:25:38,629 --> 01:25:37,199 know naturally i think humans want to 2071 01:25:40,470 --> 01:25:38,639 get to the bottom of anything that 2072 01:25:43,110 --> 01:25:40,480 appears to be a mysterious 2073 01:25:44,070 --> 01:25:43,120 or compelling to them however there are 2074 01:25:46,149 --> 01:25:44,080 times when people 2075 01:25:47,189 --> 01:25:46,159 can become so traumatized or so 2076 01:25:48,950 --> 01:25:47,199 overwhelmed 2077 01:25:50,629 --> 01:25:48,960 they don't want to get to the bottom of 2078 01:25:53,189 --> 01:25:50,639 something 2079 01:25:55,030 --> 01:25:53,199 however you have persevered all these 2080 01:25:57,110 --> 01:25:55,040 years and you feel like 2081 01:25:58,790 --> 01:25:57,120 you want to find out more about this 2082 01:26:00,390 --> 01:25:58,800 topic do you feel it's true that you 2083 01:26:02,070 --> 01:26:00,400 can't really get to the bottom of this 2084 01:26:03,669 --> 01:26:02,080 kind of rabbit hole 2085 01:26:05,590 --> 01:26:03,679 metaphorically speaking meaning the 2086 01:26:07,350 --> 01:26:05,600 phenomena will we ever find all the 2087 01:26:08,870 --> 01:26:07,360 answers to it what are your thoughts on 2088 01:26:11,830 --> 01:26:08,880 that 2089 01:26:13,750 --> 01:26:11,840 i don't think we'll find the answers 2090 01:26:16,149 --> 01:26:13,760 within my lifetime 2091 01:26:17,910 --> 01:26:16,159 i think that we have to develop a new 2092 01:26:21,430 --> 01:26:17,920 scientific paradigm 2093 01:26:24,149 --> 01:26:21,440 to even begin uh and and 2094 01:26:25,030 --> 01:26:24,159 we're quite a distance away from that i 2095 01:26:29,270 --> 01:26:25,040 think 2096 01:26:32,030 --> 01:26:29,280 and the the concern that i have 2097 01:26:34,149 --> 01:26:32,040 is that these entities are so 2098 01:26:37,350 --> 01:26:34,159 technologically advanced 2099 01:26:40,790 --> 01:26:37,360 and so different from us 2100 01:26:44,070 --> 01:26:40,800 that i would not want open contact 2101 01:26:44,790 --> 01:26:44,080 with them i think that it would be not a 2102 01:26:48,470 --> 01:26:44,800 good thing 2103 01:26:52,070 --> 01:26:48,480 for our society i don't mind 2104 01:26:55,110 --> 01:26:52,080 soft disclosure as long as the public 2105 01:26:56,310 --> 01:26:55,120 i can tolerate that with without public 2106 01:26:59,750 --> 01:26:56,320 hysteria 2107 01:27:02,229 --> 01:26:59,760 but i'm i'm very concerned because 2108 01:27:02,870 --> 01:27:02,239 these whatever these entities are 2109 01:27:07,590 --> 01:27:02,880 they're 2110 01:27:10,709 --> 01:27:07,600 different communicate differently 2111 01:27:14,390 --> 01:27:10,719 their technology is so highly advanced 2112 01:27:16,310 --> 01:27:14,400 that we can't understand it 2113 01:27:18,470 --> 01:27:16,320 yeah well before we end the interview i 2114 01:27:19,990 --> 01:27:18,480 wanted to remind our listeners of 2115 01:27:22,229 --> 01:27:20,000 something you see often on the show and 2116 01:27:24,550 --> 01:27:22,239 that is it is the us government's 2117 01:27:25,669 --> 01:27:24,560 and uh first to third world governments 2118 01:27:28,470 --> 01:27:25,679 on this planet's 2119 01:27:30,709 --> 01:27:28,480 priority to absolutely find out what is 2120 01:27:32,470 --> 01:27:30,719 traversing our skies or under our oceans 2121 01:27:35,270 --> 01:27:32,480 or even on the ground 2122 01:27:36,790 --> 01:27:35,280 and anyone who thinks otherwise is 2123 01:27:39,110 --> 01:27:36,800 absolutely naive 2124 01:27:40,550 --> 01:27:39,120 i wanted to let everybody know that if 2125 01:27:42,709 --> 01:27:40,560 anybody wants to get any autographed 2126 01:27:44,830 --> 01:27:42,719 copies of kathleen's books 2127 01:27:46,790 --> 01:27:44,840 they're available on our website at 2128 01:27:50,550 --> 01:27:46,800 kathleen 2129 01:27:52,070 --> 01:27:50,560 and that's amazonmomarden.com 2130 01:27:53,669 --> 01:27:52,080 and i'm not going to let you go yet i 2131 01:27:54,550 --> 01:27:53,679 still just i just wanted to mention your 2132 01:27:56,870 --> 01:27:54,560 books 2133 01:27:57,830 --> 01:27:56,880 but uh there's the extraterrestrial 2134 01:28:01,030 --> 01:27:57,840 contact 2135 01:28:03,430 --> 01:28:01,040 the alien abduction files the new 2136 01:28:06,550 --> 01:28:03,440 60th anniversary addiction have captured 2137 01:28:09,590 --> 01:28:06,560 the betty and barney hill ufo experience 2138 01:28:13,270 --> 01:28:09,600 fact fiction and flying saucers and 2139 01:28:14,550 --> 01:28:13,280 science was wrong and flying saucers in 2140 01:28:18,070 --> 01:28:14,560 science 2141 01:28:21,510 --> 01:28:18,080 you have consumed your life 2142 01:28:25,030 --> 01:28:21,520 kathleen to the betterment of humanity 2143 01:28:25,910 --> 01:28:25,040 with really trying to jump in with all 2144 01:28:28,070 --> 01:28:25,920 of your being 2145 01:28:30,390 --> 01:28:28,080 into this topic do you feel you're a 2146 01:28:33,590 --> 01:28:30,400 better person for it 2147 01:28:35,510 --> 01:28:33,600 yes i do think i'm a better person for 2148 01:28:39,830 --> 01:28:35,520 it because 2149 01:28:43,350 --> 01:28:39,840 not only has it been a fascinating study 2150 01:28:46,310 --> 01:28:43,360 but i'm able to elucidate 2151 01:28:47,030 --> 01:28:46,320 the topic as much as i can and a little 2152 01:28:50,070 --> 01:28:47,040 bit 2153 01:28:50,790 --> 01:28:50,080 and and to help other people who are 2154 01:28:53,669 --> 01:28:50,800 having these 2155 01:28:54,390 --> 01:28:53,679 experiences it hasn't been service to 2156 01:28:57,110 --> 01:28:54,400 self 2157 01:28:58,629 --> 01:28:57,120 it's been service to others uh during 2158 01:29:02,709 --> 01:28:58,639 the entire time 2159 01:29:05,590 --> 01:29:02,719 and i was a teacher and i continue 2160 01:29:06,550 --> 01:29:05,600 to teach and to explore and to 2161 01:29:10,870 --> 01:29:06,560 experiment 2162 01:29:13,830 --> 01:29:10,880 and uh to attempt to find the answers 2163 01:29:15,350 --> 01:29:13,840 and oftentimes i speak with theoretical 2164 01:29:17,189 --> 01:29:15,360 physicists 2165 01:29:19,030 --> 01:29:17,199 who are involved in this kind of 2166 01:29:22,790 --> 01:29:19,040 research as well 2167 01:29:25,910 --> 01:29:22,800 to gain a understanding 2168 01:29:29,350 --> 01:29:25,920 using our own physical laws but also 2169 01:29:32,950 --> 01:29:29,360 theoretical physics so uh yeah it's 2170 01:29:35,750 --> 01:29:32,960 it's been very rewarding intrinsically 2171 01:29:37,669 --> 01:29:35,760 before we go is going to ask you uh what 2172 01:29:39,270 --> 01:29:37,679 do you think is the end game 2173 01:29:41,669 --> 01:29:39,280 before you answer that i wanted to 2174 01:29:43,510 --> 01:29:41,679 mention i think part of the reason why 2175 01:29:45,110 --> 01:29:43,520 we're having experiences with this kind 2176 01:29:48,070 --> 01:29:45,120 of phenomena whether it be 2177 01:29:49,830 --> 01:29:48,080 multiple et civilizations or one or even 2178 01:29:52,870 --> 01:29:49,840 just their artificial intelligence that 2179 01:29:54,870 --> 01:29:52,880 might be floating around the planet 2180 01:29:56,550 --> 01:29:54,880 it might be an impossibility for us to 2181 01:29:58,310 --> 01:29:56,560 not have experiences with them because 2182 01:29:58,709 --> 01:29:58,320 we might be sharing the same planet with 2183 01:30:01,510 --> 01:29:58,719 them 2184 01:30:01,910 --> 01:30:01,520 but what do you think the end game is 2185 01:30:05,990 --> 01:30:01,920 for 2186 01:30:07,990 --> 01:30:06,000 ets who are intermingling with humans or 2187 01:30:11,350 --> 01:30:08,000 abducting them or studying them what is 2188 01:30:16,870 --> 01:30:14,550 i don't know what the end game is i've 2189 01:30:20,950 --> 01:30:16,880 worked on three major studies 2190 01:30:24,629 --> 01:30:20,960 with experiencers with results from 2191 01:30:27,669 --> 01:30:24,639 over 5 000 at this point and we 2192 01:30:31,030 --> 01:30:27,679 know what they have told us in 2193 01:30:34,550 --> 01:30:31,040 open-ended questions and 2194 01:30:36,229 --> 01:30:34,560 these entities claim that they are 2195 01:30:40,229 --> 01:30:36,239 concerned about our use of 2196 01:30:43,189 --> 01:30:40,239 nuclear weapons they 2197 01:30:45,830 --> 01:30:43,199 are concerned about our environment and 2198 01:30:49,110 --> 01:30:45,840 the possible environmental collapse 2199 01:30:53,430 --> 01:30:49,120 they uh explain that 2200 01:30:57,110 --> 01:30:53,440 they are collecting uh flora 2201 01:31:01,110 --> 01:30:57,120 and fauna from all over this world 2202 01:31:01,750 --> 01:31:01,120 uh that if we do end up destroying this 2203 01:31:03,830 --> 01:31:01,760 planet 2204 01:31:05,110 --> 01:31:03,840 that they will at least have all of that 2205 01:31:07,350 --> 01:31:05,120 dna 2206 01:31:09,669 --> 01:31:07,360 uh they are say that they're also 2207 01:31:14,390 --> 01:31:09,679 seeding other planets 2208 01:31:17,430 --> 01:31:14,400 uh that they are terraforming and 2209 01:31:20,229 --> 01:31:17,440 you know but who knows that's 2210 01:31:21,229 --> 01:31:20,239 i i have a tremendous amount of feedback 2211 01:31:24,550 --> 01:31:21,239 from 2212 01:31:28,310 --> 01:31:24,560 experiencers around the world 2213 01:31:31,030 --> 01:31:28,320 um many uh are having contact with 2214 01:31:32,950 --> 01:31:31,040 beings that they believe are benevolent 2215 01:31:36,149 --> 01:31:32,960 they believe that they have 2216 01:31:39,750 --> 01:31:36,159 volunteered to come to this 2217 01:31:43,430 --> 01:31:39,760 planet to work to save 2218 01:31:45,510 --> 01:31:43,440 this planet but there are 2219 01:31:47,189 --> 01:31:45,520 others who are having horrific 2220 01:31:49,750 --> 01:31:47,199 experiences as i 2221 01:31:50,790 --> 01:31:49,760 mentioned during our conversation as 2222
