starting with the new york times 200 00:14:23,350 --> 00:14:20,160 publishing that landmark article on 201 00:14:26,150 --> 00:14:23,360 december 16th 2017. 202 00:14:26,870 --> 00:14:26,160 we've

00:14:51,350 --> 00:14:48,880 minutes 213 00:14:52,629 --> 00:14:51,360 show right then we had a big article in 214 00:14:55,990 --> 00:14:52,639 the new yorker 215 00:14:57,750 --> 00:14:56,000 and those two things really i think 216 00:15:00,069 --> 00:14:57,760 were a wake-up call to a lot of the 217 00:15:01,430 --> 00:15:00,079 other media who hadn't covered this and 218 00:15:03,670 --> 00:15:01,440 people were saying wait a minute 219 00:15:05,189 --> 00:15:03,680 you know we should be across this and 220 00:15:07,910 --> 00:15:05,199 then 221 00:15:09,509 --> 00:15:07,920 literally in the last few days the 222 00:15:11,110 --> 00:15:09,519 report from office of director of 223 00:15:14,389 --> 00:15:11,120 national intelligence 224 00:15:15,430 --> 00:15:14,399 hit congress and all the things that 225 00:15:18,790 --> 00:15:15,440 went with that 226 00:15:21,189 --> 00:15:18,800 so it's it's been a heck of a ride over 227 00:15:23,990 --> 00:15:21,199 the last three and a half years and um 228 00:15:25,430 --> 00:15:24,000 i would say it's those things rather 229 00:15:27,750 --> 00:15:25,440 than 230 00:15:29,269 --> 00:15:27,760 the number of sightings right which 231 00:15:30,870 --> 00:15:29,279 which may or may not be 232 00:15:32,470 --> 00:15:30,880 up or down and there are so many 233 00:15:33,509 --> 00:15:32,480 variables and it's so difficult to 234 00:15:35,910 --> 00:15:33,519 capture them all 235 00:15:37,990 --> 00:15:35,920 so who knows yeah well the reason i 236 00:15:41,110 --> 00:15:38,000 asked is actually 237 00:15:44,389 --> 00:15:41,120 i watched a video from you 238 00:15:46,069 --> 00:15:44,399 from about 10 years ago and 239 00:15:48,470 --> 00:15:46,079 i think at the time you were saying 240 00:15:50,949 --> 00:15:48,480 there was an uptick or something 241 00:15:52,470 --> 00:15:50,959 uh of sightings so i was just curious in 242 00:15:55,590 --> 00:15:52,480 relation to 243 00:15:56,310 --> 00:15:55,600 you know the last maybe 10 20 years do 244 00:15:58,790 --> 00:15:56,320 you know of 245 00:15:59,749 --> 00:15:58,800 any kind of difference with these things 246 00:16:03,509 --> 00:15:59,759 whether it be their 247 00:16:06,150 --> 00:16:03,519 technology or ability to evade or 248 00:16:06,550 --> 00:16:06,160 anything like that well i think what 249 00:16:09,990 --> 00:16:06,560 we've 250 00:16:13,430 --> 00:16:10,000 seen i'm not sure that the phenomenon 251 00:16:17,990 --> 00:16:13,440 has changed but i think what's happened 252 00:16:21,509 --> 00:16:18,000 is that our ability to track it 253 00:16:24,150 --> 00:16:21,519 has ramped up through the whole 254 00:16:25,509 --> 00:16:24,160 range of technologies that we use 255 00:16:29,670 --> 00:16:25,519 whether it's radar 256 00:16:33,110 --> 00:16:29,680 ford looking infrared satellites 257 00:16:33,829 --> 00:16:33,120 and but more than that it's been a 258 00:16:36,870 --> 00:16:33,839 change of 259 00:16:38,710 --> 00:16:36,880 attitude within the military 260 00:16:39,990 --> 00:16:38,720 the government the intelligence 261 00:16:42,790 --> 00:16:40,000 community particularly 262 00:16:43,990 --> 00:16:42,800 because these sightings were always 263 00:16:47,590 --> 00:16:44,000 going on 264 00:16:49,990 --> 00:16:47,600 and the data were always there to be had 265 00:16:51,030 --> 00:16:50,000 um subject to the caveat i mentioned 266 00:16:53,910 --> 00:16:51,040 about our technology 267 00:16:55,430 --> 00:16:53,920 through improving recently but what had 268 00:16:58,629 --> 00:16:55,440 previously been lacking 269 00:17:00,949 --> 00:16:58,639 was the will to do anything about it 270 00:17:01,670 --> 00:17:00,959 and the realization that that was even 271 00:17:03,189 --> 00:17:01,680 an issue 272 00:17:04,949 --> 00:17:03,199 because i think previously people were 273 00:17:06,630 --> 00:17:04,959 just like oh ufos 274 00:17:09,669 --> 00:17:06,640 they would roll their eyes they would 275 00:17:13,669 --> 00:17:09,679 think of sci-fi movies 276 00:17:17,189 --> 00:17:13,679 yeah well some still do but but i think 277 00:17:18,949 --> 00:17:17,199 important decision makers within 278 00:17:21,350 --> 00:17:18,959 the intelligence community and and 279 00:17:24,309 --> 00:17:21,360 within congress 280 00:17:25,990 --> 00:17:24,319 realize that they have missed a trick 281 00:17:26,870 --> 00:17:26,000 and that there has been something 282 00:17:30,150 --> 00:17:26,880 operating in 283 00:17:31,669 --> 00:17:30,160 our skies and that we now finally have 284 00:17:34,950 --> 00:17:31,679 the tools 285 00:17:38,390 --> 00:17:34,960 to track it quite effectively right 286 00:17:41,029 --> 00:17:38,400 and that's fantastic um yeah i know even 287 00:17:41,669 --> 00:17:41,039 there was some talk around the time we 288 00:17:45,029 --> 00:17:41,679 updated 289 00:17:47,430 --> 00:17:45,039 our cameras on the jets 290 00:17:48,950 --> 00:17:47,440 we know started noticing them more and 291 00:17:51,669 --> 00:17:48,960 capturing them more 292 00:17:53,270 --> 00:17:51,679 i'm not sure if that was 2004 or the 293 00:17:54,870 --> 00:17:53,280 2017 event but 294 00:17:56,789 --> 00:17:54,880 yeah i think you're it sounds like 295 00:17:59,590 --> 00:17:56,799 you're exactly right 296 00:18:00,710 --> 00:17:59,600 and another good example of how we've 297 00:18:03,350 --> 00:18:00,720 been missing a trick 298 00:18:04,230 --> 00:18:03,360 and the report to congress does briefly 299 00:18:08,150 --> 00:18:04,240 touch on this 300 00:18:11,430 --> 00:18:08,160 is filter programs now obviously for for 301 00:18:15,029 --> 00:18:11,440 you know a lot of radar operators 302 00:18:17,909 --> 00:18:15,039 you you generally are interested in or 303 00:18:18,310 --> 00:18:17,919 you know aircraft so so you're you're 304 00:18:22,150 --> 00:18:18,320 very 305 00:18:25,270 --> 00:18:22,160 transponder focused and a lot of 306 00:18:27,990 --> 00:18:25,280 filter programs exist to 307 00:18:29,190 --> 00:18:28,000 effectively edit out of the picture to 308 00:18:33,029 --> 00:18:29,200 declutter it 309 00:18:34,630 --> 00:18:33,039 right things that are judged not to be 310 00:18:35,990 --> 00:18:34,640 conventional aircraft 311 00:18:38,230 --> 00:18:36,000 often because they don't have a 312 00:18:40,870 --> 00:18:38,240 transponder essentially so 313 00:18:44,150 --> 00:18:40,880 so and there's a realization that well 314 00:18:45,990 --> 00:18:44,160 what if some of these things 315 00:18:47,990 --> 00:18:46,000 obviously aren't carrying transponders 316 00:18:50,630 --> 00:18:48,000 but heck we need to know about them 317 00:18:52,870 --> 00:18:50,640 so so i think this there's been a 318 00:18:56,150 --> 00:18:52,880 realization that's a good example of 319 00:18:59,669 --> 00:18:56,160 where we've had the tools but where 320 00:19:02,710 --> 00:18:59,679 the mindset has been very much 321 00:19:04,150 --> 00:19:02,720 just focused on it can't be so it isn't 322 00:19:06,789 --> 00:19:04,160 and we've thrown out the baby with the 323 00:19:09,990 --> 00:19:06,799 bath water 324 00:19:12,549 --> 00:19:10,000 i like that example um 325 00:19:14,950 --> 00:19:12,559 let me ask you this how long have you 326 00:19:18,950 --> 00:19:14,960 when did you start with mod 327 00:19:22,070 --> 00:19:18,960 or i guess it was yes 1985. 328 00:19:24,950 --> 00:19:22,080 and i was there for 21 years 329 00:19:26,710 --> 00:19:24,960 yeah i was there for 21 years as a 330 00:19:30,630 --> 00:19:26,720 civilian employee but of course i 331 00:19:31,750 --> 00:19:30,640 i did not do 21 years of ufo work right 332 00:19:34,950 --> 00:19:31,760 i mean that was 333 00:19:35,510 --> 00:19:34,960 one posting in that much wider more 334 00:19:37,830 --> 00:19:35,520 varied 335 00:19:38,950 --> 00:19:37,840 career i guess what more what i'm asking 336 00:19:41,669 --> 00:19:38,960 is how long have you been 337 00:19:43,190 --> 00:19:41,679 paying attention to what's going on with 338 00:19:46,310 --> 00:19:43,200 the ufo stuff 339 00:19:49,110 --> 00:19:46,320 uh since 1991 when i was 340 00:19:51,110 --> 00:19:49,120 assigned that that particular job right 341 00:19:54,470 --> 00:19:51,120 right so 342 00:19:56,789 --> 00:19:54,480 from that time onward now officially for 343 00:19:59,909 --> 00:19:56,799 the ministry of defense that posting 344 00:20:02,390 --> 00:19:59,919 was 1991 to 1994. 345 00:20:04,470 --> 00:20:02,400 but i felt afterwards that this subject 346 00:20:05,669 --> 00:20:04,480 was too interesting and too important to 347 00:20:08,230 --> 00:20:05,679 walk away from 348 00:20:09,590 --> 00:20:08,240 and and hence i've continued my 349 00:20:12,149 --> 00:20:09,600 involvement in a 350 00:20:12,710 --> 00:20:12,159 private capacity although from time to 351 00:20:15,990 --> 00:20:12,720 time 352 00:20:17,430 --> 00:20:16,000 i have been asked to do a you know i 353 00:20:18,310 --> 00:20:17,440 don't want to start any conspiracy 354 00:20:20,630 --> 00:20:18,320 theories and it's 355 00:20:21,590 --> 00:20:20,640 it's just it's very in a sense it's very 356 00:20:24,070 --> 00:20:21,600 mundane but 357 00:20:25,750 --> 00:20:24,080 sure but for example ask to come back 358 00:20:28,070 --> 00:20:25,760 and help publicize 359 00:20:29,909 --> 00:20:28,080 the declassification and release of the 360 00:20:32,230 --> 00:20:29,919 uk government's ufo files 361 00:20:33,830 --> 00:20:32,240 many of which i wrote so well that makes 362 00:20:35,350 --> 00:20:33,840 sense if you wrote it yeah i came out of 363 00:20:37,750 --> 00:20:35,360 retirement to do that 364 00:20:39,029 --> 00:20:37,760 it it does not mean and i've seen this 365 00:20:40,630 --> 00:20:39,039 on the internet recently 366 00:20:41,990 --> 00:20:40,640 does not mean that i'm still secretly 367 00:20:42,870 --> 00:20:42,000 working for the government or the new 368 00:20:46,710 --> 00:20:42,880 world order 369 00:20:48,230 --> 00:20:46,720 illuminati 370 00:20:50,470 --> 00:20:48,240 if you're gonna be in a tag team match 371 00:20:54,149 --> 00:20:50,480 with hulk hogan nwo 372 00:20:57,110 --> 00:20:54,159 i'd be all for it but yeah 373 00:20:58,789 --> 00:20:57,120 um yeah that's that's a while i guess 374 00:21:01,190 --> 00:20:58,799 what 375 00:21:02,070 --> 00:21:01,200 when you left mod you said it was kind 376 00:21:05,590 --> 00:21:02,080 of too 377 00:21:09,830 --> 00:21:05,600 too fascinating to put it down um 378 00:21:12,549 --> 00:21:09,840 what really struck you to give you that 379 00:21:14,870 --> 00:21:12,559 that burn you know that till this day is 380 00:21:18,310 --> 00:21:14,880 is still going for you 381 00:21:21,590 --> 00:21:18,320 well a lot of it was um pilot sightings 382 00:21:24,070 --> 00:21:21,600 radar operator sightings of 383 00:21:24,630 --> 00:21:24,080 of uncorrelated targets whether it was 384 00:21:27,590 --> 00:21:24,640 on the 385 00:21:28,310 --> 00:21:27,600 conventional air defense radar systems 386 00:21:31,110 --> 00:21:28,320 or 387 00:21:32,310 --> 00:21:31,120 the the space tracking radars that we 388 00:21:35,190 --> 00:21:32,320 had at the 389 00:21:37,270 --> 00:21:35,200 as it was then called the be muse the 390 00:21:40,549 --> 00:21:37,280 the ballistic missile early warning 391 00:21:43,990 --> 00:21:40,559 center system you know so um 392 00:21:48,630 --> 00:21:44,000 raf filing dales in yorkshire 393 00:21:52,149 --> 00:21:48,640 so when those sorts of people 394 00:21:55,390 --> 00:21:52,159 report ufos and tell you about 395 00:21:58,549 --> 00:21:55,400 sightings involving speeds maneuvers 396 00:22:01,430 --> 00:21:58,559 accelerations that have them 397 00:22:03,270 --> 00:22:01,440 impressed then it's exactly the same 398 00:22:04,630 --> 00:22:03,280 situation as we've seen recently with 399 00:22:07,830 --> 00:22:04,640 these people like 400 00:22:10,310 --> 00:22:07,840 david fravor and alex dietrich 401 00:22:12,230 --> 00:22:10,320 you know i i think dave fraver his his 402 00:22:14,710 --> 00:22:12,240 great comment was something like i don't 403 00:22:17,669 --> 00:22:14,720 know what it was but i want to fly one 404 00:22:18,470 --> 00:22:17,679 and and so when these elite men and 405 00:22:22,310 --> 00:22:18,480 women 406 00:22:27,110 --> 00:22:22,320 these top guns when they get excited 407 00:22:30,630 --> 00:22:27,120 i get excited yeah it it's 408 00:22:33,110 --> 00:22:30,640 it's crazy how how long 409 00:22:34,549 --> 00:22:33,120 the same descriptors have really been 410 00:22:37,510 --> 00:22:34,559 used i mean 411 00:22:38,710 --> 00:22:37,520 ever since that i've seen the 40s 90 412 00:22:42,630 --> 00:22:38,720 degree turns 413 00:22:46,230 --> 00:22:42,640 crazy acceleration um 414 00:22:48,230 --> 00:22:46,240 that's a long time especially 415 00:22:49,750 --> 00:22:48,240 to be empty-handed i'm not saying we are 416 00:22:51,430 --> 00:22:49,760 a government but 417 00:22:53,350 --> 00:22:51,440 you know if they were to try to pose 418 00:22:53,990 --> 00:22:53,360 that um that would be kind of 419 00:22:57,350 --> 00:22:54,000 unbelievable 420 00:22:59,029 --> 00:22:57,360 wouldn't it sure and i i know 421 00:23:01,909 --> 00:22:59,039 a lot of people in the ufo community 422 00:23:05,270 --> 00:23:01,919 have been fairly scathing about the 423 00:23:07,669 --> 00:23:05,280 odni report to congress i 424 00:23:09,510 --> 00:23:07,679 you know i welcome it as you say yeah 425 00:23:10,470 --> 00:23:09,520 it's it's a preliminary assessment so 426 00:23:13,110 --> 00:23:10,480 people shouldn't 427 00:23:13,909 --> 00:23:13,120 shouldn't think this is the the full 428 00:23:17,750 --> 00:23:13,919 yeah 429 00:23:20,789 --> 00:23:17,760 because it is 430 00:23:21,270 --> 00:23:20,799 yeah and by their own addition they say 431 00:23:23,350 --> 00:23:21,280 so 432 00:23:25,270 --> 00:23:23,360 but i think one of the things that was 433 00:23:25,750 --> 00:23:25,280 interesting i understand why they've 434 00:23:28,470 --> 00:23:25,760 done it 435 00:23:29,430 --> 00:23:28,480 but this this i do understand the 436 00:23:32,149 --> 00:23:29,440 frustration 437 00:23:33,669 --> 00:23:32,159 it's like they've taken a point in time 438 00:23:36,950 --> 00:23:33,679 very very recently 439 00:23:37,830 --> 00:23:36,960 and just taken a snapshot of military 440 00:23:41,029 --> 00:23:37,840 sightings 441 00:23:44,549 --> 00:23:41,039 effectively editing out the 442 00:23:47,909 --> 00:23:44,559 the ufo mysteries 80-year 443 00:23:49,430 --> 00:23:47,919 backstory right right 444 00:23:51,190 --> 00:23:49,440 now maybe you could correct me if i'm 445 00:23:52,870 --> 00:23:51,200 wrong here but um i 446 00:23:55,190 --> 00:23:52,880 did the reports say that they were going 447 00:23:58,710 --> 00:23:55,200 to use historical data 448 00:24:02,390 --> 00:23:58,720 to try to find like patterns and um 449 00:24:04,870 --> 00:24:02,400 algorithms yes yeah yes it did and that 450 00:24:06,870 --> 00:24:04,880 it's interesting because it ties in with 451 00:24:09,350 --> 00:24:06,880 a recent report 452 00:24:10,070 --> 00:24:09,360 that came out about the chinese 453 00:24:13,830 --> 00:24:10,080 government 454 00:24:15,110 --> 00:24:13,840 right and the the media report about the 455 00:24:17,510 --> 00:24:15,120 chinese government's 456 00:24:18,230 --> 00:24:17,520 ufo investigation said that they were 457 00:24:21,350 --> 00:24:18,240 already 458 00:24:24,870 --> 00:24:21,360 using ai to look for patterns 459 00:24:27,990 --> 00:24:24,880 to do trend analysis and i think 460 00:24:31,190 --> 00:24:28,000 the us is is in danger of 461 00:24:34,230 --> 00:24:31,200 lagging behind in this area not 462 00:24:37,269 --> 00:24:34,240 just in relation to uh ufo 463 00:24:40,070 --> 00:24:37,279 research but maybe in the wider sense 464 00:24:41,510 --> 00:24:40,080 too so that gave me some encouragement 465 00:24:43,830 --> 00:24:41,520 that they were going to do that 466 00:24:46,310 --> 00:24:43,840 yeah i i go back to something lou 467 00:24:48,549 --> 00:24:46,320 elizondo said once somebody asked him 468 00:24:50,470 --> 00:24:48,559 um when it really hit him what what this 469 00:24:53,909 --> 00:24:50,480 was when he was working at eight tip 470 00:24:57,110 --> 00:24:53,919 and he said um or what did he think 471 00:24:59,190 --> 00:24:57,120 and he said i think his word excuse my 472 00:25:02,390 --> 00:24:59,200 language oh [\h__\h] 473 00:25:04,470 --> 00:25:02,400 you know like um i hope that 474 00:25:05,750 --> 00:25:04,480 other countries don't already have this 475 00:25:08,390 --> 00:25:05,760 how far ahead are they 476 00:25:09,190 --> 00:25:08,400 than us you know that sort of thing and 477 00:25:12,870 --> 00:25:09,200 that's scary 478 00:25:15,830 --> 00:25:12,880 because seemingly 479 00:25:18,230 --> 00:25:15,840 we know russia at least has been looking 480 00:25:21,029 --> 00:25:18,240 at this for a long time 481 00:25:23,029 --> 00:25:21,039 yes very difficult of course as you know 482 00:25:25,909 --> 00:25:23,039 to untangle 483 00:25:26,310 --> 00:25:25,919 the situation in russia and china and 484 00:25:28,149 --> 00:25:26,320 and 485 00:25:29,830 --> 00:25:28,159 very often with these sorts of things 486 00:25:33,430 --> 00:25:29,840 sometimes one 487 00:25:36,630 --> 00:25:33,440 tries to hide a capability one has and 488 00:25:38,630 --> 00:25:36,640 talk upper capability one doesn't 489 00:25:39,909 --> 00:25:38,640 have but certainly when you look at 490 00:25:44,390 --> 00:25:39,919 putin's speeches 491 00:25:47,590 --> 00:25:44,400 over the last few years he certainly 492 00:25:48,710 --> 00:25:47,600 dropped into the conversation mention of 493 00:25:52,070 --> 00:25:48,720 of at least 494 00:25:53,269 --> 00:25:52,080 i think five or six different weapon 495 00:25:55,830 --> 00:25:53,279 systems that 496 00:25:56,549 --> 00:25:55,840 he says has put russia in a preeminent 497 00:26:00,549 --> 00:25:56,559 position 498 00:26:03,430 --> 00:26:00,559 in terms of things like hypersonics 499 00:26:05,830 --> 00:26:03,440 you know so we have to take that but 500 00:26:09,029 --> 00:26:05,840 obviously at any given time 501 00:26:09,669 --> 00:26:09,039 the us intelligence community one would 502 00:26:12,870 --> 00:26:09,679 hope and 503 00:26:16,070 --> 00:26:12,880 expect while not being infallible 504 00:26:19,269 --> 00:26:16,080 but has a reasonably good idea 505 00:26:22,549 --> 00:26:19,279 of where the upper limit of 506 00:26:25,590 --> 00:26:22,559 russian and chinese capability yeah 507 00:26:28,390 --> 00:26:25,600 lies with next generation aerospace tech 508 00:26:29,350 --> 00:26:28,400 yeah so you would hope that they would 509 00:26:32,470 --> 00:26:29,360 be able to take 510 00:26:36,710 --> 00:26:32,480 that assessment of where the ceiling 511 00:26:39,430 --> 00:26:36,720 is then take the uap data 512 00:26:40,070 --> 00:26:39,440 and say does it match could it be russia 513 00:26:43,269 --> 00:26:40,080 and china 514 00:26:45,510 --> 00:26:43,279 or could it be something else yeah yeah 515 00:26:47,269 --> 00:26:45,520 and you know that's something we were 516 00:26:50,310 --> 00:26:47,279 have been looking at the whole time 517 00:26:53,110 --> 00:26:50,320 too which is funny you know even back 518 00:26:53,750 --> 00:26:53,120 yeah during the cold war or ussr it was 519 00:26:56,310 --> 00:26:53,760 always 520 00:26:58,390 --> 00:26:56,320 keeping an eye on russia for any 521 00:27:00,710 --> 00:26:58,400 technology coming out of it that 522 00:27:01,590 --> 00:27:00,720 maybe this stuff so it kind of goes to 523 00:27:04,070 --> 00:27:01,600 show you that 524 00:27:05,430 --> 00:27:04,080 um no i don't know if you think this but 525 00:27:08,470 --> 00:27:05,440 at times i think 526 00:27:10,630 --> 00:27:08,480 it's just the true um 527 00:27:11,510 --> 00:27:10,640 situation with the uaps in our 528 00:27:15,190 --> 00:27:11,520 government i 529 00:27:17,990 --> 00:27:15,200 i feel like they honestly just haven't 530 00:27:20,149 --> 00:27:18,000 been able to figure it out and that 531 00:27:22,789 --> 00:27:20,159 could be why they haven't said anything 532 00:27:23,669 --> 00:27:22,799 i i agree i don't think there's 533 00:27:25,750 --> 00:27:23,679 literally 534 00:27:27,029 --> 00:27:25,760 as some believe a spaceship sitting in a 535 00:27:29,149 --> 00:27:27,039 hangar somewhere 536 00:27:30,710 --> 00:27:29,159 but i think there is this dawning 537 00:27:33,110 --> 00:27:30,720 realization 538 00:27:34,149 --> 00:27:33,120 now within the system that there is a 539 00:27:38,310 --> 00:27:34,159 real 540 00:27:40,870 --> 00:27:38,320 core phenomenon here maybe with multiple 541 00:27:42,789 --> 00:27:40,880 explanations i mean i i think you know 542 00:27:45,430 --> 00:27:42,799 we we should get away from this idea 543 00:27:47,269 --> 00:27:45,440 and the report to congress says this we 544 00:27:49,909 --> 00:27:47,279 should get away from the idea that 545 00:27:50,549 --> 00:27:49,919 there's a single neat solution oh it's 546 00:27:53,590 --> 00:27:50,559 russia 547 00:27:54,230 --> 00:27:53,600 it's china it's weather phenomena of 548 00:27:56,710 --> 00:27:54,240 some 549 00:27:58,149 --> 00:27:56,720 sort i mean no i think the report makes 550 00:27:58,789 --> 00:27:58,159 yeah the report makes it clear we're 551 00:28:02,310 --> 00:27:58,799 dealing with 552 00:28:04,470 --> 00:28:02,320 probably a range of explanations some 553 00:28:06,230 --> 00:28:04,480 conventional some not but the things 554 00:28:07,510 --> 00:28:06,240 that caught my eye in the report for 555 00:28:09,990 --> 00:28:07,520 example were the 556 00:28:11,669 --> 00:28:10,000 thing where it said a handful of cases 557 00:28:15,190 --> 00:28:11,679 do and i'm paraphrasing 558 00:28:18,149 --> 00:28:15,200 but a handful of cases do suggest 559 00:28:18,549 --> 00:28:18,159 advanced technology and it specifically 560 00:28:22,149 --> 00:28:18,559 then 561 00:28:24,789 --> 00:28:22,159 referenced radio frequency energy and 562 00:28:25,750 --> 00:28:24,799 signature management right so for for 563 00:28:27,510 --> 00:28:25,760 those 564 00:28:29,029 --> 00:28:27,520 people wanting to follow the breadcrumbs 565 00:28:32,470 --> 00:28:29,039 i think those are the the 566 00:28:36,149 --> 00:28:32,480 two phrases that should really 567 00:28:40,389 --> 00:28:36,159 catch their eye and i think the 568 00:28:41,990 --> 00:28:40,399 the well national reconnaissance office 569 00:28:43,430 --> 00:28:42,000 they would probably have a lot of this 570 00:28:45,430 --> 00:28:43,440 information don't you think 571 00:28:46,950 --> 00:28:45,440 because they were putting the satellites 572 00:28:48,389 --> 00:28:46,960 up in this guy 573 00:28:50,710 --> 00:28:48,399 you would think they have some pictures 574 00:28:54,310 --> 00:28:50,720 of that and signature data one 575 00:28:57,990 --> 00:28:54,320 one would hope so and and then um 576 00:29:01,510 --> 00:28:58,000 uh the the national 577 00:29:04,630 --> 00:29:01,520 geospatial intelligence um 578 00:29:06,470 --> 00:29:04,640 agencies in the name you know so and and 579 00:29:06,950 --> 00:29:06,480 that of course is one of the problems 580 00:29:10,070 --> 00:29:06,960 that the 581 00:29:13,590 --> 00:29:10,080 uap task force has had 582 00:29:16,149 --> 00:29:13,600 they've had to try and get inside 583 00:29:17,350 --> 00:29:16,159 each part of the u.s intelligence 584 00:29:21,990 --> 00:29:17,360 community 585 00:29:25,590 --> 00:29:22,000 find out who has active programs 586 00:29:29,350 --> 00:29:25,600 on this who has historical 587 00:29:33,029 --> 00:29:29,360 programs and data files 588 00:29:36,950 --> 00:29:33,039 information on this and find and just 589 00:29:40,389 --> 00:29:36,960 going in to all uh whatever it is now 17 590 00:29:43,750 --> 00:29:40,399 parts or or whatever finding 591 00:29:45,669 --> 00:29:43,760 the right person or people to talk to 592 00:29:47,510 --> 00:29:45,679 convincing them that you've got the 593 00:29:49,029 --> 00:29:47,520 correct even though you're doing this 594 00:29:50,870 --> 00:29:49,039 for dni 595 00:29:53,269 --> 00:29:50,880 that you've got the correct clearances 596 00:29:56,630 --> 00:29:56,149 yeah we're here with dna mm-hmm sure 597 00:30:00,789 --> 00:29:56,640 sure 598 00:30:03,909 --> 00:30:00,799 well then have him do it okay 599 00:30:04,630 --> 00:30:03,919 yeah he'll do it and and then then of 600 00:30:06,310 --> 00:30:04,640 course that 601 00:30:08,310 --> 00:30:06,320 doesn't take account of the fact that a 602 00:30:10,549 --> 00:30:08,320 lot of this is 603 00:30:12,870 --> 00:30:10,559 probably out in the private sector to 604 00:30:15,190 --> 00:30:12,880 take it further outside 605 00:30:17,669 --> 00:30:15,200 scrutiny from say the intelligence 606 00:30:20,310 --> 00:30:17,679 committees the armed services committees 607 00:30:21,269 --> 00:30:20,320 um outside the scope of freedom of 608 00:30:23,990 --> 00:30:21,279 information act 609 00:30:26,230 --> 00:30:24,000 right well like yeah that's uh bringing 610 00:30:28,710 --> 00:30:26,240 it back just a little bit the nro they 611 00:30:30,470 --> 00:30:28,720 i well i don't know if it's the 612 00:30:32,710 --> 00:30:30,480 documents i read were kind of old 613 00:30:33,669 --> 00:30:32,720 but um they were contracting out 614 00:30:36,230 --> 00:30:33,679 everything 615 00:30:36,710 --> 00:30:36,240 so that's a that's a lot of different 616 00:30:39,830 --> 00:30:36,720 people 617 00:30:41,510 --> 00:30:39,840 and you know yeah we did the same 618 00:30:42,870 --> 00:30:41,520 in in the ministry of defense with a lot 619 00:30:45,830 --> 00:30:42,880 of our most 620 00:30:46,630 --> 00:30:45,840 highly classified and often sometimes 621 00:30:49,990 --> 00:30:46,640 politically 622 00:30:53,269 --> 00:30:50,000 sensitive studies so 623 00:30:55,269 --> 00:30:53,279 certainly one one study into ufos uh but 624 00:30:58,789 --> 00:30:55,279 another one into remote viewing 625 00:31:03,590 --> 00:30:58,799 were done through a 626 00:31:06,870 --> 00:31:03,600 private defense corporation contractor 627 00:31:09,509 --> 00:31:06,880 and and yeah it's just to give a little 628 00:31:09,990 --> 00:31:09,519 not so much plausible deniability 629 00:31:12,389 --> 00:31:10,000 because 630 00:31:13,269 --> 00:31:12,399 it it was still our contract but a 631 00:31:16,149 --> 00:31:13,279 little bit of 632 00:31:17,990 --> 00:31:16,159 distance so that you could you could say 633 00:31:20,470 --> 00:31:18,000 well you know maybe the contractor went 634 00:31:22,789 --> 00:31:20,480 down a rabbit hole or something 635 00:31:23,509 --> 00:31:22,799 yeah i used to sell commercial roofs so 636 00:31:26,230 --> 00:31:23,519 it's like that 637 00:31:27,110 --> 00:31:26,240 yeah if you hire a subcontractor and 638 00:31:30,830 --> 00:31:27,120 they screw it up 639 00:31:33,990 --> 00:31:30,840 well they'll they're paying for that 640 00:31:37,750 --> 00:31:34,000 yeah um let's see 641 00:31:44,870 --> 00:31:41,350 if you just really dug in your gut 642 00:31:48,230 --> 00:31:44,880 use your instinct or intuition do you 643 00:31:51,029 --> 00:31:48,240 think we are on the cusp 644 00:31:52,389 --> 00:31:51,039 of disclosure and when i say disclosure 645 00:31:54,630 --> 00:31:52,399 i don't mean like you know 646 00:31:56,870 --> 00:31:54,640 on the white house lawn and all that i 647 00:32:00,149 --> 00:31:56,880 just more mean a confirmation of 648 00:32:03,430 --> 00:32:00,159 another intelligent life whether it be 649 00:32:05,430 --> 00:32:03,440 interdimensional or outer space 650 00:32:07,350 --> 00:32:05,440 i think we're getting there and i agree 651 00:32:08,389 --> 00:32:07,360 with you i don't think it will be the 652 00:32:11,590 --> 00:32:08,399 sort of big 653 00:32:13,590 --> 00:32:11,600 single event that 654 00:32:15,350 --> 00:32:13,600 that you mention and that people think 655 00:32:17,110 --> 00:32:15,360 about when when they talk about 656 00:32:19,190 --> 00:32:17,120 disclosure so 657 00:32:20,630 --> 00:32:19,200 no my fellow americans people of the 658 00:32:25,430 --> 00:32:20,640 world we're not alone 659 00:32:28,950 --> 00:32:25,440 but but more disclosure as a process 660 00:32:30,950 --> 00:32:28,960 as opposed to a a single event 661 00:32:32,470 --> 00:32:30,960 and we're we're living that process 662 00:32:35,509 --> 00:32:32,480 right now and 663 00:32:38,789 --> 00:32:35,519 part of it yeah part of it is is 664 00:32:42,389 --> 00:32:38,799 atip and the navy videos and and the 665 00:32:44,549 --> 00:32:42,399 odni report part of it is people like 666 00:32:47,269 --> 00:32:44,559 lou alexander and chris mellon and 667 00:32:49,110 --> 00:32:47,279 and others with the background in this 668 00:32:53,029 --> 00:32:49,120 increasingly speaking on 669 00:32:55,110 --> 00:32:53,039 on the record and part of it as well 670 00:32:56,149 --> 00:32:55,120 is when you listen to some of the 671 00:32:59,350 --> 00:32:56,159 interviews that 672 00:33:02,070 --> 00:32:59,360 people are doing like for example former 673 00:33:03,269 --> 00:33:02,080 president barack obama former dna john 674 00:33:06,389 --> 00:33:03,279 ratcliffe 675 00:33:07,909 --> 00:33:06,399 um obama that's a huge one i i feel like 676 00:33:09,909 --> 00:33:07,919 that totally 677 00:33:11,190 --> 00:33:09,919 i mean for the most part just went over 678 00:33:14,310 --> 00:33:11,200 everyone's head 679 00:33:17,430 --> 00:33:14,320 yeah because presidents including obama 680 00:33:19,590 --> 00:33:17,440 have discussed this before but 681 00:33:20,470 --> 00:33:19,600 on it tends to have been on shows like 682 00:33:23,110 --> 00:33:20,480 jimmy kimmel 683 00:33:23,590 --> 00:33:23,120 where they play it for laughs right and 684 00:33:26,310 --> 00:33:23,600 and 685 00:33:27,830 --> 00:33:26,320 obama was absolutely dead straight with 686 00:33:29,190 --> 00:33:27,840 this and basically said yeah 687 00:33:31,029 --> 00:33:29,200 there are things in our skies and we 688 00:33:32,549 --> 00:33:31,039 can't explain them yeah and he 689 00:33:35,750 --> 00:33:32,559 was like wait a minute dude to say he 690 00:33:38,789 --> 00:33:35,760 was being serious i'm being serious now 691 00:33:40,070 --> 00:33:38,799 that's pretty so yeah and part of it of 692 00:33:43,269 --> 00:33:40,080 course is coming from the 693 00:33:46,310 --> 00:33:43,279 scientific community maybe at first 694 00:33:47,990 --> 00:33:46,320 from people who are regarded as a little 695 00:33:51,590 --> 00:33:48,000 bit of a maverick so people like 696 00:33:53,669 --> 00:33:51,600 avi loeb talking about a muammar but 697 00:33:55,350 --> 00:33:53,679 you know if you once once you have 698 00:33:57,509 --> 00:33:55,360 harvard professors talking about all 699 00:33:59,909 --> 00:33:57,519 this it does give it a sort of 700 00:34:00,710 --> 00:33:59,919 respectability so all of these things 701 00:34:03,350 --> 00:34:00,720 happening 702 00:34:04,789 --> 00:34:03,360 as a process and one day we'll just wake 703 00:34:07,990 --> 00:34:04,799 up and realize that it's 704 00:34:09,990 --> 00:34:08,000 done and dusted without us quite knowing 705 00:34:11,589 --> 00:34:10,000 how we got there and it as i say it 706 00:34:13,030 --> 00:34:11,599 won't be a single thing 707 00:34:14,869 --> 00:34:13,040 that pushed it over the line but 708 00:34:15,430 --> 00:34:14,879 there'll just be a realization that yeah 709 00:34:17,349 --> 00:34:15,440 okay 710 00:34:18,629 --> 00:34:17,359 that's probably the world we live in 711 00:34:21,589 --> 00:34:18,639 yeah uh 712 00:34:22,790 --> 00:34:21,599 yeah and yeah so if more pilots come out 713 00:34:24,069 --> 00:34:22,800 with their experiences 714 00:34:26,629 --> 00:34:24,079 they'll probably feel a little more 715 00:34:27,750 --> 00:34:26,639 emboldened i mean in the report they 716 00:34:30,230 --> 00:34:27,760 said a lot of 717 00:34:32,149 --> 00:34:30,240 uh the frustration is with the stigma 718 00:34:34,950 --> 00:34:32,159 that still exists 719 00:34:35,909 --> 00:34:34,960 um which actually now that i say it that 720 00:34:38,470 --> 00:34:35,919 made me very 721 00:34:39,270 --> 00:34:38,480 happy to see that in the preliminary 722 00:34:41,589 --> 00:34:39,280 report 723 00:34:42,470 --> 00:34:41,599 how they discussed the stigma aspect of 724 00:34:46,629 --> 00:34:42,480 it 725 00:34:48,550 --> 00:34:46,639 um because first of all 726 00:34:51,430 --> 00:34:48,560 there is there's just no compassion for 727 00:34:53,829 --> 00:34:51,440 the people that go through this stuff 728 00:34:55,349 --> 00:34:53,839 i mean diedrich for instance i don't 729 00:34:58,310 --> 00:34:55,359 even think they were 730 00:34:59,510 --> 00:34:58,320 armed you know and they go out there 731 00:35:01,510 --> 00:34:59,520 after this stuff that 732 00:35:04,950 --> 00:35:01,520 is completely bizarre that we think is 733 00:35:08,550 --> 00:35:04,960 bizarre just by listening to it 734 00:35:11,829 --> 00:35:08,560 she was there um 735 00:35:13,109 --> 00:35:11,839 you know and there's still a possibility 736 00:35:15,270 --> 00:35:13,119 of stigma 737 00:35:16,870 --> 00:35:15,280 i mean to me that's just incredible so i 738 00:35:18,630 --> 00:35:16,880 was very happy that that was in the 739 00:35:19,430 --> 00:35:18,640 report do you think that will set a 740 00:35:24,310 --> 00:35:19,440 precedence 741 00:35:27,829 --> 00:35:27,030 i think so and i hope so and of course 742 00:35:31,589 --> 00:35:27,839 the u.s 743 00:35:33,589 --> 00:35:31,599 navy issued guidance to its pilots 744 00:35:35,670 --> 00:35:33,599 um over a year ago now right telling 745 00:35:38,069 --> 00:35:35,680 them that that they should be reporting 746 00:35:39,589 --> 00:35:38,079 these things now they refused to 747 00:35:42,470 --> 00:35:39,599 disclose 748 00:35:43,829 --> 00:35:42,480 exactly what that guidance said saying 749 00:35:45,510 --> 00:35:43,839 that it was classified 750 00:35:48,310 --> 00:35:45,520 which which is interesting because in 751 00:35:51,430 --> 00:35:48,320 one sense if you think back to something 752 00:35:53,349 --> 00:35:51,440 a public facing ufo program like 753 00:35:54,470 --> 00:35:53,359 project blue book or like the one i ran 754 00:35:57,030 --> 00:35:54,480 at the mod 755 00:35:58,710 --> 00:35:57,040 um there would be nothing wrong and 756 00:36:00,870 --> 00:35:58,720 indeed the all the 757 00:36:01,990 --> 00:36:00,880 forms that we use to record the 758 00:36:05,109 --> 00:36:02,000 sightings that's 759 00:36:07,430 --> 00:36:05,119 all in the public domain right and 760 00:36:09,190 --> 00:36:07,440 and and rightly so because because we 761 00:36:12,310 --> 00:36:09,200 wanted the reports it's not 762 00:36:14,470 --> 00:36:12,320 just from our own people and and 763 00:36:16,390 --> 00:36:14,480 military pilots commercial airline 764 00:36:19,190 --> 00:36:16,400 pilots but we wanted reports 765 00:36:20,390 --> 00:36:19,200 from everyone because because you know 766 00:36:23,190 --> 00:36:20,400 you can never know 767 00:36:23,670 --> 00:36:23,200 from where an interesting piece of data 768 00:36:27,589 --> 00:36:23,680 is 769 00:36:31,190 --> 00:36:27,599 only come from the military 770 00:36:33,030 --> 00:36:31,200 is is i think wrong-headed so yeah um 771 00:36:35,430 --> 00:36:33,040 so that's interesting but yes going back 772 00:36:39,190 --> 00:36:35,440 to your your question 773 00:36:39,990 --> 00:36:39,200 um i do think that building on the 774 00:36:43,109 --> 00:36:40,000 navy's 775 00:36:44,390 --> 00:36:43,119 guidance to its own people and building 776 00:36:49,030 --> 00:36:44,400 on the preliminary 777 00:36:52,150 --> 00:36:49,040 assessment from odni to congress 778 00:36:53,430 --> 00:36:52,160 we will have set up a more robust 779 00:36:56,870 --> 00:36:53,440 reporting system 780 00:36:59,990 --> 00:36:56,880 where reports will not only be 781 00:37:01,270 --> 00:37:00,000 not stigmatized but actively encouraged 782 00:37:02,870 --> 00:37:01,280 the chain of command 783 00:37:05,109 --> 00:37:02,880 and this is this is for the chain of 784 00:37:07,589 --> 00:37:05,119 command to take ownership 785 00:37:08,710 --> 00:37:07,599 of and if there is still reluctance the 786 00:37:11,430 --> 00:37:08,720 chain of command 787 00:37:12,630 --> 00:37:11,440 must push the message look no we're not 788 00:37:15,990 --> 00:37:12,640 kidding people 789 00:37:18,870 --> 00:37:16,000 um you see something you say something 790 00:37:20,550 --> 00:37:18,880 to coin a phrase yeah definitely if 791 00:37:22,150 --> 00:37:20,560 you're a boss you gotta you gotta set 792 00:37:28,069 --> 00:37:22,160 the tone right right 793 00:37:32,230 --> 00:37:31,190 are you gonna keep helping us until we 794 00:37:35,670 --> 00:37:32,240 cross the finish line 795 00:37:39,430 --> 00:37:35,680 mr pope well you know i'll 796 00:37:43,109 --> 00:37:39,440 i don't know exactly 797 00:37:44,950 --> 00:37:43,119 what my role in all of this will be but 798 00:37:48,470 --> 00:37:44,960 if it's if recent experience 799 00:37:51,910 --> 00:37:48,480 is anything to go by i do enjoy a 800 00:37:55,589 --> 00:37:51,920 fairly considerable mainstream media 801 00:37:59,030 --> 00:37:55,599 presence and i will continue to use that 802 00:38:02,829 --> 00:37:59,040 presence in the media to keep this 803 00:38:06,310 --> 00:38:02,839 issue in the public eye to 804 00:38:08,470 --> 00:38:06,320 keep pushing the message that this is a 805 00:38:09,510 --> 00:38:08,480 serious defense and national security 806 00:38:12,710 --> 00:38:09,520 issue 807 00:38:15,910 --> 00:38:12,720 and to to do what i can 808 00:38:18,150 --> 00:38:15,920 to to inform and educate 809 00:38:19,430 --> 00:38:18,160 when it comes to this topic and 810 00:38:23,190 --> 00:38:19,440 particularly 811 00:38:25,190 --> 00:38:23,200 hopefully to do what some of the other 812 00:38:26,790 --> 00:38:25,200 people that that are currently in the 813 00:38:29,910 --> 00:38:26,800 public eye on this are doing 814 00:38:31,109 --> 00:38:29,920 to use our government backgrounds to 815 00:38:34,710 --> 00:38:31,119 give people 816 00:38:38,470 --> 00:38:34,720 a sort of insider's perspective so that 817 00:38:42,069 --> 00:38:38,480 that even if it's an unrelated ufo story 818 00:38:44,630 --> 00:38:42,079 people like me can can contextualize it 819 00:38:45,750 --> 00:38:44,640 for folks so yeah absolutely i will 820 00:38:48,950 --> 00:38:45,760 continue 821 00:38:50,470 --> 00:38:48,960 to do that and and yeah we need you 822 00:38:53,990 --> 00:38:50,480

controversy about 913 00:42:52,309 --> 00:42:49,680 what if anything he personally 914 00:42:53,030 --> 00:42:52,319 saw and if so what he took away from 915 00:42:56,550 --> 00:42:53,040 that 916 00:42:58,470 --> 00:42:56,560 experience but yeah michael howard is 917 00:43:00,150 --> 00:42:58,480 and there's some material about that out 918 00:43:02,230 --> 00:43:00,160 on on the internet 919

00:45:50,480 possibly as 987 00:45:55,910 --> 00:45:53,839 a prelude to a false flag 988 00:45:57,589 --> 00:45:55,920 alien invasion right let's just i mean 989 00:46:01,750 --> 00:45:57,599 this is

interesting because of course 1055 00:49:10,870 --> 00:49:08,559 it it 1056 00:49:12,150 --> 00:49:10,880 raises the question and lose talked 1057 00:49:16,150 --> 00:49:12,160 about this 1058 00:49:19,190 --> 00:49:16,160 that that there's a faction 1059 00:49:20,150 --> 00:49:19,200 in in the pentagon but there were people 1060 00:49:22,470 --> 00:49:20,160 in the uk 1061 00:49:24,390 --> 00:49:22,480 who thought like this too who believed 1062 00:49:28,150 --> 00:49:24,400 that the phenomenon was demonic 1063 00:49:30,790 --> 00:49:28,160 right and one of the things that they 1064 00:49:32,390 --> 00:49:30,800 cited was a passage in the bible in in 1065 00:49:34,470 --> 00:49:32,400 the book of ephesians 1066 00:49:36,710 --> 00:49:34,480 where it describes satan as being the 1067 00:49:39,589 --> 00:49:36,720 prince of the power of the air 1068 00:49:41,349 --> 00:49:39,599 and they've seized upon that and then 1069 00:49:44,470 --> 00:49:41,359 they've taken the view well 1070 00:49:47,589 --> 00:49:44,480 it's demonic and therefore it says 1071 00:49:50,710 --> 00:49:47,599 you shouldn't be studying it because it 1072 00:49:53,030 --> 00:49:50,720 somehow feeds it gives it energy so as 1073 00:49:54,630 --> 00:49:53,040 as an atheist this was frustrating to me 1074 00:49:58,549 --> 00:49:54,640 because my view was 1075 00:50:02,069 --> 00:49:58,559 look i can understand skepticism about 1076 00:50:04,630 --> 00:50:02,079 this rooted in 1077 00:50:05,270 --> 00:50:04,640 hard-nosed science if somebody says look 1078 00:50:07,109 --> 00:50:05,280 you know 1079 00:50:08,790 --> 00:50:07,119 i don't believe that it's possible to 1080 00:50:09,670 --> 00:50:08,800 break the light speed barrier therefore 1081 00:50:11,829 --> 00:50:09,680 they can't 1082 00:50:12,870 --> 00:50:11,839 get here from there well you can sit 1083 00:50:13,670 --> 00:50:12,880 down and you can have a reasonable 1084 00:50:15,829 --> 00:50:13,680 conversation 1085 00:50:16,790 --> 00:50:15,839 with someone about that you can debate 1086 00:50:19,510 --> 00:50:16,800 things like 1087 00:50:20,710 --> 00:50:19,520 wormholes and walk drive and and sub 1088 00:50:23,910 --> 00:50:20,720 light 1089 00:50:27,190 --> 00:50:23,920 travel with unmanned probes so 1090 00:50:29,349 --> 00:50:27,200 that's fine but if someone if if what 1091 00:50:30,069 --> 00:50:29,359 you're coming up against when you want 1092 00:50:32,950 --> 00:50:30,079 to do more 1093 00:50:33,829 --> 00:50:32,960 research and investigation is a sort of 1094 00:50:36,870 --> 00:50:33,839 fundamental 1095 00:50:39,430 --> 00:50:36,880 religiosity then to me as an atheist 1096 00:50:41,670 --> 00:50:39,440 particularly that was frustrating yeah 1097 00:50:44,870 --> 00:50:41,680 do you think there's a way to ever uh 1098 00:50:47,589 --> 00:50:44,880 marry um at least um 1099 00:50:48,390 --> 00:50:47,599 spirituality or faith not so much 1100 00:50:51,430 --> 00:50:48,400 religion 1101 00:50:53,589 --> 00:50:51,440 in science well i don't know i i 1102 00:50:55,670 --> 00:50:53,599 i know that your question said 1103 00:50:57,910 --> 00:50:55,680 spirituality and not religion but in a 1104 00:51:00,549 --> 00:50:57,920 sense 1105 00:51:01,750 --> 00:51:00,559 if if i had a dollar for every time i'd 1106 00:51:04,470 --> 00:51:01,760 heard someone say well i'm not 1107 00:51:05,030 --> 00:51:04,480 religious but i i am spiritual yeah so i 1108 00:51:08,790 --> 00:51:05,040 think it 1109 00:51:11,349 --> 00:51:08,800 it the two segue into each other 1110 00:51:14,150 --> 00:51:11,359 and i think one can say that the 1111 00:51:16,390 --> 00:51:14,160 conflict between science and religion 1112 00:51:17,190 --> 00:51:16,400 has been going on for hundreds of years 1113 00:51:20,390 --> 00:51:17,200 and 1114 00:51:22,710 --> 00:51:20,400 i doubt that it will end tomorrow 1115 00:51:23,510 --> 00:51:22,720 so if there's like a basketball game and 1116 00:51:25,670 --> 00:51:23,520 one team 1117 00:51:27,910 --> 00:51:25,680 is science and the other is religion 1118 00:51:31,270 --> 00:51:27,920 you're playing for the science team 1119 00:51:32,150 --> 00:51:31,280 i'm playing for the science team fair 1120 00:51:37,510 --> 00:51:32,160 play 1121 00:51:38,470 --> 00:51:37,520 because for example the catholic church 1122 00:51:41,750 --> 00:51:38,480 in recent years 1123 00:51:45,030 --> 00:51:41,760 has said some very encouraging and 1124 00:51:45,589 --> 00:51:45,040 thoughtful things about extraterrestrial 1125 00:51:48,390 --> 00:51:45,599 life 1126 00:51:48,710 --> 00:51:48,400 and have even said that there's there's 1127 00:51:51,990 --> 00:51:48,720 no 1128 00:51:53,430 --> 00:51:52,000 doctrinal objection to the existence of 1129 00:51:55,190 --> 00:51:53,440 extraterrestrial life 1130 00:51:57,750 --> 00:51:55,200 and the reason that they gave which 1131 00:52:00,790 --> 00:51:57,760 makes perfect sense if you're religious 1132 00:52:03,829 --> 00:52:00,800 because we yeah we 1133 00:52:04,390 --> 00:52:03,839 human beings can place no creative 1134 00:52:08,470 --> 00:52:04,400 limits 1135 00:52:10,549 --> 00:52:08,480 upon god yeah how could you 1136 00:52:11,589 --> 00:52:10,559 yeah especially unless you know how to 1137 00:52:13,270 --> 00:52:11,599 make yourself 1138 00:52:15,270 --> 00:52:13,280 i don't think you can really start to 1139 00:52:18,790 --> 00:52:15,280 try and figure that out 1140 00:52:19,910 --> 00:52:18,800 yeah um well we let let me check for a 1141 00:52:23,430 --> 00:52:19,920 couple more questions 1142 00:52:25,510 --> 00:52:23,440 um it's we've been 52 minutes into this 1143 00:52:27,190 --> 00:52:25,520 it's been great um do you have a hard 1144 00:52:30,390 --> 00:52:27,200 stop 1145 00:52:30,870 --> 00:52:30,400 like an hour yeah let's let's take it to 1146 00:52:34,150 --> 00:52:30,880 the 1147 00:52:37,270 --> 00:52:34,160 perfect 1148 00:52:42,069 --> 00:52:37,280 um man 1149 00:52:44,309 --> 00:52:42,079 everybody is so let me just say this 1150 00:52:45,510 --> 00:52:44,319 i don't think it helps us and you 1151 00:52:46,790 --> 00:52:45,520 probably agree with this i'm just 1152 00:52:49,270 --> 00:52:46,800 looking at comments 1153 00:52:49,910 --> 00:52:49,280 i don't know that it helps us to dig in 1154 00:52:53,030 --> 00:52:49,920 deep 1155 00:52:55,670 --> 00:52:53,040 to another person's flaws like grier 1156 00:52:56,069 --> 00:52:55,680 and ask people to comment on it so as 1157 00:52:59,910 --> 00:52:56,079 such 1158 00:53:01,190 --> 00:52:59,920 to cause more conflict is that right do 1159 00:53:04,549 --> 00:53:01,200 you agree with that yeah i 1160 00:53:07,829 --> 00:53:04,559 i take the point but look um 1161 00:53:11,270 --> 00:53:07,839 and i've sat down and you know had 1162 00:53:14,790 --> 00:53:11,280 had conversations with with 1163 00:53:15,430 --> 00:53:14,800 steven greer about this phenomenon and 1164 00:53:18,150 --> 00:53:15,440 things we 1165 00:53:19,349 --> 00:53:18,160 we've not sat down and discussed this 1166 00:53:21,990 --> 00:53:19,359 particular 1167 00:53:23,349 --> 00:53:22,000 conflict grisha recently but look it's 1168 00:53:27,430 --> 00:53:23,359 not 1169 00:53:30,549 --> 00:53:27,440 i it's i don't think we can censor 1170 00:53:31,990 --> 00:53:30,559 this and if if we've got some some 1171 00:53:35,349 --> 00:53:32,000 unpleasantness 1172 00:53:38,710 --> 00:53:35,359 to deal with let's get it out there 1173 00:53:41,910 --> 00:53:38,720 and and the the other thing is 1174 00:53:43,990 --> 00:53:41,920 he was the one who made the comment so 1175 00:53:44,710 --> 00:53:44,000 you can't put the toothpaste back in the 1176 00:53:47,910 --> 00:53:44,720 tube 1177 00:53:51,910 --> 00:53:47,920 his his viewpoint is out there 1178 00:53:55,030 --> 00:53:51,920 and certainly my my rebuttal of that 1179 00:53:57,109 --> 00:53:55,040 um to you just now but 1180 00:53:58,309 --> 00:53:57,119 but i've been asked about it before my 1181 00:54:00,549 --> 00:53:58,319 my rebuttal 1182 00:54:02,630 --> 00:54:00,559 is is out there people know my position 1183 00:54:03,910 --> 00:54:02,640 on this i don't think we can pretend 1184 00:54:06,069 --> 00:54:03,920 i don't think we can pretend the 1185 00:54:09,349 --> 00:54:06,079 disagreement isn't there 1186 00:54:13,030 --> 00:54:09,359 and i don't think any of us can 1187 00:54:16,230 --> 00:54:13,040 or should police who 1188 00:54:19,190 --> 00:54:16,240 discusses what in in this field i 1189 00:54:19,510 --> 00:54:19,200 i take a very libertarian view on on 1190 00:54:21,910 --> 00:54:19,520 this 1191 00:54:23,349 --> 00:54:21,920 nothing's nothing's off the table it's 1192 00:54:26,790 --> 00:54:23,359 just when people start 1193 00:54:30,790 --> 00:54:26,800 forcing things at you as far as i'm 1194 00:54:31,750 --> 00:54:30,800 look even though i strongly refute the 1195 00:54:35,109 --> 00:54:31,760 allegation 1196 00:54:38,230 --> 00:54:35,119 i'm certainly not going to 1197 00:54:41,910 --> 00:54:38,240 turn that into a personal 1198 00:54:42,549 --> 00:54:41,920 attack right on dr greer he's entitled 1199 00:54:45,270 --> 00:54:42,559 to his 1200 00:54:46,950 --> 00:54:45,280 his view and i'm sure he genuinely and 1201 00:54:49,109 --> 00:54:46,960 sincerely holds that view i 1202 00:54:51,270 --> 00:54:49,119 i think he's wrong but good luck to him 1203 00:54:54,150 --> 00:54:51,280 yeah well i'm not worried about it 1204 00:54:54,950 --> 00:54:54,160 it's it's kind of um one of those things 1205 00:54:57,030 --> 00:54:54,960 where 1206 00:54:57,990 --> 00:54:57,040 if you can't tell the difference between 1207 00:55:01,430 --> 00:54:58,000 his 1208 00:55:04,549 --> 00:55:01,440 um promotion email in your gmail box 1209 00:55:08,630 --> 00:55:04,559 and the one from guitar center um 1210 00:55:15,990 --> 00:55:13,349 so that's all i'll say about that but um 1211 00:55:17,270 --> 00:55:16,000 do you do you think any other scientists 1212 00:55:19,589 --> 00:55:17,280 are gonna 1213 00:55:22,150 --> 00:55:19,599 like it seems like mainstream scientists 1214 00:55:24,670 --> 00:55:22,160 or such like elon musk and 1215 00:55:25,990 --> 00:55:24,680 uh neil degrasse tyson um 1216 00:55:27,310 -->

you think if not them other 1224 00:55:44,150 --> 00:55:41,440 scientists 1225 00:55:44,950 --> 00:55:44,160 like them are up to their level we'll 1226 00:55:47,990 --> 00:55:44,960 we'll start 1227 00:55:51,030 --> 00:55:48,000 studying it in the public well 1228 00:55:53,750 --> 00:55:51,040 one one example of i and 1229 00:55:56,390 --> 00:55:53,760 we talked about avi loeb right of course 1230 00:55:59,510 --> 00:55:56,400 earlier but uh another great example 1231 00:55:59,829 --> 00:55:59,520 possibly the finest scientific mind on 1232 00:56:03,030 --> 00:55:59,839 the 1233 00:56:06,069 --> 00:56:03,040 kaku 1234 00:56:09,510 --> 00:56:06,079 and and 1235 00:56:12,549 --> 00:56:09,520 you know michio has been 1236 00:56:16,150 --> 00:56:12,559 very struck by these 1237 00:56:19,750 --> 00:56:16,160 these navy videos and and the associated 1238 00:56:20,470 --> 00:56:19,760 backstory and and i think has has made 1239 00:56:23,750 --> 00:56:20,480 some 1240 00:56:27,270 --> 00:56:23,760 very helpful and 1241 00:56:28,390 --> 00:56:27,280 remarks about all this and and hopefully 1242 00:56:31,910 --> 00:56:28,400 others will 1243 00:56:36,309 --> 00:56:31,920 follow him in um we we had a 1244 00:56:39,589 --> 00:56:36,319 i did a live three-hour special 1245 00:56:44,710 --> 00:56:39,599 on which was simulcast on 1246 00:56:48,150 --> 00:56:46,549 we had an astrophysicist yeah we had an 1247 00:56:51,750 --> 00:56:48,160 astrophysicist on there dr 1248 00:56:54,870 --> 00:56:51,760 o who who talked talked about 1249 00:56:56,710 --> 00:56:54,880 uh this there there are other 1250 00:56:58,630 --> 00:56:56,720 scientists beginning to come forward and 1251 00:57:03,109 --> 00:56:58,640 speak out and say at least 1252
