Kevin is an advocate for UAP transparency and 19 00:01:17,600 --> 00:01:21,560 Speaker 2: is the founder of Solve Advocacy, an organization which is 20 00:01:21,600 --> 00:01:27,039 Speaker 2: dedicated to supporting whistleblowers, strengthening oversight, and advancing lawful disclosure. 21 00:01:27,520 --> 00:01:32,000 Speaker 2: His work focuses on navigating the complex intersection of national security, 22 00:01:32,360 --> 00:01:37,960 Speaker 2: classified programs, congressional oversight, and public accountability. Hey Kevin, welcome, 23 00:01:38,000 --> 00:01:38,760 Speaker 2: How you doing man? 24 00:01:39,240 --> 00:01:41,480 Speaker 5: Thank you, Ron, good to see you. How are you today? 25 00:01:41,800 --> 00:01:45,600 Speaker 2: I'm terrific. You know, one interesting thing doing all this 26 00:01:45,760 --> 00:01:48,080 Speaker 2: nonsense that I do, is that there are so many 27 00:01:48,120 --> 00:01:51,040 Speaker 2: different people who seem to be drawn to this topic 28 00:01:51,160 --> 00:01:54,720 Speaker 2: and they found their own unique lane or aspect of 29 00:01:54,720 --> 00:01:58,680 Speaker 2: the phenomenon, all of which play an important role. I 30 00:01:58,720 --> 00:02:00,760 Speaker 2: feel like they're each another rick in the wall of 31 00:02:00,840 --> 00:02:04,520 Speaker 2: us building an understanding of what's happening, whatever that might be, 32 00:02:05,000 --> 00:02:08,200 Speaker 2: as well as fighting the truth embargo to try to 33 00:02:08,240 --> 00:02:12,440 Speaker 2: get more governmental disclosure to move forward. You are right 34 00:02:12,440 --> 00:02:15,200 Speaker 2: there on the front line of this aspect, working with 35 00:02:15,320 --> 00:02:20,160 Speaker 2: individuals who have credible information about UAP related programs so 36 00:02:20,200 --> 00:02:23,480 Speaker 2: they could come forward safe and responsibly. Tell us what 37 00:02:23,600 --> 00:02:25,480 Speaker 2: kind of stuff you're doing to try to get these 38 00:02:25,520 --> 00:02:27,200 Speaker 2: potential whistleblowers protection. 39 00:02:28,240 --> 00:02:30,679 Speaker 5: Sure, well, you're absolutely right there. First of all is 40 00:02:30,720 --> 00:02:33,160 Speaker 5: that everyone seems to come at it from a different 41 00:02:33,160 --> 00:02:35,840 Speaker 5: angle and from different experiences. And you know how I 42 00:02:35,880 --> 00:02:38,000 Speaker 5: got into this was that, you know, I've spent twenty 43 00:02:38,080 --> 00:02:42,120 Speaker 5: years in Washington, DC, working in politics, and you know, 44 00:02:42,200 --> 00:02:45,079 Speaker 5: I saw that there was an effort here to bring 45 00:02:45,080 --> 00:02:47,359 Speaker 5: about disclosure. In one of the ways that I could 46 00:02:47,400 --> 00:02:52,280 Speaker 5: participate was bringing my expertise in politics and lobbying and 47 00:02:53,160 --> 00:02:55,880 Speaker 5: issue advocacy to the table because there wasn't a lot 48 00:02:55,880 --> 00:02:58,959 Speaker 5: of that going on. But to better answer your question, 49 00:02:59,000 --> 00:03:00,760 Speaker 5: you know, I work a lot with with New Paradigm 50 00:03:00,800 --> 00:03:04,000 Speaker 5: Institute and Danny Sheen. Of course I serve as their 51 00:03:04,080 --> 00:03:07,760 Speaker 5: congressional liaison here in Washington, d C. So one of 52 00:03:07,800 --> 00:03:09,800 Speaker 5: the things that you know, New Paradigm Institute has been 53 00:03:09,800 --> 00:03:14,919 Speaker 5: doing is pushing enhanced the UAP with lower protection legislation 54 00:03:15,639 --> 00:03:18,960 Speaker 5: and working with members of Congress to you know, find 55 00:03:18,960 --> 00:03:22,800 Speaker 5: a sponsor and co sponsors for that legislation and provide 56 00:03:22,840 --> 00:03:26,400 Speaker 5: them better protection so they can come forward and share 57 00:03:26,520 --> 00:03:29,520 Speaker 5: with Congress first and then the public second. You know 58 00:03:29,600 --> 00:03:31,880 Speaker 5: what it is that they have learned, you know, either 59 00:03:32,040 --> 00:03:35,360 Speaker 5: as a first hand you know, whistleblower secondhand, wherever the 60 00:03:35,400 --> 00:03:39,160 Speaker 5: case may be, and their experiences inside or outside of 61 00:03:39,160 --> 00:03:40,120 Speaker 5: the legacy program. 62 00:03:40,720 --> 00:03:43,640 Speaker 2: Do you think that the UAP Disclosure Act is what 63 00:03:43,680 --> 00:03:47,200 Speaker 2: we need to kind of get this the one in 64 00:03:47,480 --> 00:03:50,520 Speaker 2: its original form, of course, to help get this through 65 00:03:50,560 --> 00:03:51,680 Speaker 2: so that people are protected. 66 00:03:52,800 --> 00:03:56,760 Speaker 5: Well, I mean, the UAP Disclosure Actor UAPDA is an 67 00:03:56,800 --> 00:03:59,320 Speaker 5: important and historic piece of legislation. It's sort of a 68 00:03:59,360 --> 00:04:03,000 Speaker 5: miracle that is even to begin with, to be perfectly 69 00:04:03,000 --> 00:04:05,880 Speaker 5: honest with you, because there was no prove real precursor 70 00:04:05,920 --> 00:04:08,360 Speaker 5: to it. It was just suddenly offered there. And you know, 71 00:04:08,520 --> 00:04:12,160 Speaker 5: Chuck Schumer, he was then the majority leader, and you know, 72 00:04:12,200 --> 00:04:15,480 Speaker 5: sort of muscled it into the National Defense Authorization Act 73 00:04:15,520 --> 00:04:18,520 Speaker 5: for bisically year twenty twenty four. And you know that 74 00:04:18,600 --> 00:04:20,400 Speaker 5: was really sort of a miracle in and of itself too. 75 00:04:20,480 --> 00:04:22,560 Speaker 5: He used a lot of parliamentary tactics and things to 76 00:04:22,600 --> 00:04:27,640 Speaker 5: get that done. But you know, the legislation is, you know, 77 00:04:27,800 --> 00:04:30,279 Speaker 5: all legislation has little flaws to it. There are certainly 78 00:04:30,320 --> 00:04:34,760 Speaker 5: things that people looked at that they opposed. Eminent domain 79 00:04:34,880 --> 00:04:36,799 Speaker 5: was one of them. But I think that the aminent 80 00:04:36,800 --> 00:04:41,120 Speaker 5: domain is actually rather significant and important to the legislation. 81 00:04:41,480 --> 00:04:44,240 Speaker 5: But you know, the fact is that it is legislation 82 00:04:44,279 --> 00:04:47,839 Speaker 5: that talks about non human intelligence, talks about technologies of 83 00:04:47,839 --> 00:04:53,840 Speaker 5: an origin. Obviously uap N identified an almost phenomena, and 84 00:04:54,080 --> 00:04:57,320 Speaker 5: you know it's really rather important and whether or not 85 00:04:57,440 --> 00:05:01,000 Speaker 5: that is going to be the vehicle that drives disclosure 86 00:05:01,040 --> 00:05:03,400 Speaker 5: forward or not remains to be seen. But as it 87 00:05:03,440 --> 00:05:07,240 Speaker 5: goes to you know, whistleblowers, that legislation did offer some 88 00:05:07,920 --> 00:05:12,000 Speaker 5: additional protections that are not you know, present in law today, 89 00:05:12,480 --> 00:05:15,080 Speaker 5: but it certainly doesn't go far enough. So even if 90 00:05:15,120 --> 00:05:18,680 Speaker 5: they did pass the UAPDA into law, they would still 91 00:05:18,720 --> 00:05:20,880 Speaker 5: need to add extra protections down the road. 92 00:05:21,360 --> 00:05:24,120 Speaker 2: What's the biggest problem you see for these whistleblowers who 93 00:05:24,279 --> 00:05:27,800 Speaker 2: who may know something and even maybe even feel compelled 94 00:05:27,839 --> 00:05:31,000 Speaker 2: to reveal it, but they don't because they don't feel 95 00:05:31,040 --> 00:05:31,960 Speaker 2: they're free to do so. 96 00:05:32,600 --> 00:05:34,160 Speaker 5: Well, I think there's a number of things that play 97 00:05:34,200 --> 00:05:38,240 Speaker 5: here that we've seen from testimony, you know, David Grush 98 00:05:38,279 --> 00:05:40,839 Speaker 5: being one of them. But you know, they have a 99 00:05:40,960 --> 00:05:44,240 Speaker 5: number of hurdles. They have non disclosure agreements, of course, 100 00:05:44,560 --> 00:05:50,240 Speaker 5: they have national security agreements. They have threats, intimidation, lots 101 00:05:50,320 --> 00:05:52,880 Speaker 5: of different things coming at them from different angles that 102 00:05:53,080 --> 00:05:55,040 Speaker 5: you know, make them feel unsafe to be able to 103 00:05:55,040 --> 00:05:59,160 Speaker 5: come forward, whether that's financially, whether that's the threat of imprisonment, 104 00:05:59,279 --> 00:06:03,240 Speaker 5: the threat of personal physical harm and other things. So 105 00:06:03,279 --> 00:06:06,120 Speaker 5: there's a number of different things that present themselves to 106 00:06:06,200 --> 00:06:09,520 Speaker 5: different sorts of whistleblowers as to what their potential vulnerabilities 107 00:06:09,560 --> 00:06:09,800 Speaker 5: might be. 108 00:06:10,360 --> 00:06:12,360 Speaker 2: See, that's exactly what I want to get to with you, 109 00:06:12,760 --> 00:06:16,400 Speaker 2: is these threats and intimidation tactics. Even if we get 110 00:06:16,480 --> 00:06:20,279 Speaker 2: legislation that in theory protects these guys technically and legally, 111 00:06:20,760 --> 00:06:23,680 Speaker 2: you know, threats and intimidation, that's not like a legal thing, 112 00:06:23,800 --> 00:06:27,360 Speaker 2: that's that's a behind the scenes thing anyway. So wouldn't 113 00:06:27,400 --> 00:06:30,080 Speaker 2: they still be faced with these challenges. 114 00:06:30,400 --> 00:06:34,080 Speaker 5: Well, that's certainly a possibility. But the idea would be 115 00:06:34,160 --> 00:06:37,839 Speaker 5: here that by providing them extra protections, then they're also 116 00:06:38,120 --> 00:06:42,400 Speaker 5: providing the means by which to prosecute people who you know, 117 00:06:42,480 --> 00:06:45,159 Speaker 5: may be looking to do them harm, whether that's actual 118 00:06:45,200 --> 00:06:48,120 Speaker 5: physical harm or it's just the actual threats intivitation. So 119 00:06:48,600 --> 00:06:49,920 Speaker 5: you know, there's a number of things that play when 120 00:06:49,960 --> 00:06:50,520 Speaker 5: it comes to that. 121 00:06:51,000 --> 00:06:53,440 Speaker 2: You know, we've heard from many different people like Danny 122 00:06:53,480 --> 00:06:56,440 Speaker 2: Sheehan who you mentioned, Steven Greer. There's a bunch of 123 00:06:56,440 --> 00:06:58,640 Speaker 2: these guys who have said that there's a bunch of 124 00:06:58,720 --> 00:07:02,360 Speaker 2: people waiting in the worlds who want to come forward 125 00:07:02,360 --> 00:07:05,160 Speaker 2: and share their story, but they can't because of either 126 00:07:05,200 --> 00:07:09,040 Speaker 2: the NDA or the things you mentioned classification programs. Do 127 00:07:09,080 --> 00:07:12,920 Speaker 2: you know specific people like this yourself, and if so, 128 00:07:13,120 --> 00:07:15,800 Speaker 2: how do they frame it? How do they you know, 129 00:07:16,000 --> 00:07:19,000 Speaker 2: say that they can't come forward because. 130 00:07:19,400 --> 00:07:23,920 Speaker 5: I don't actually deal with the whistleblowers in direct contact myself. 131 00:07:24,000 --> 00:07:26,080 Speaker 5: You know, that goes through other people, you know, people 132 00:07:26,080 --> 00:07:28,640 Speaker 5: like Dani San and you know, I would imagine Ivan 133 00:07:28,680 --> 00:07:31,200 Speaker 5: Handle who has represented wells ONDO in the past as well, 134 00:07:31,440 --> 00:07:35,160 Speaker 5: and others who are you know, experienced attorneys and helping 135 00:07:35,200 --> 00:07:38,200 Speaker 5: them navigate you know, the legal intricacies that are involved here. 136 00:07:38,440 --> 00:07:41,120 Speaker 5: But I think that you know, through David Grush's testimony, 137 00:07:41,200 --> 00:07:45,120 Speaker 5: through the conversations with others, it's clear that, like I 138 00:07:45,160 --> 00:07:47,760 Speaker 5: said earlier, that there are a number of issues at 139 00:07:47,800 --> 00:07:49,600 Speaker 5: play here where some of them they just have a 140 00:07:49,760 --> 00:07:53,760 Speaker 5: not you know, a an NDA which they don't want 141 00:07:53,800 --> 00:07:56,600 Speaker 5: to break because of you know, legal repercussions, whether that 142 00:07:56,680 --> 00:07:59,640 Speaker 5: might be financial through you know, a private aerospace defense 143 00:07:59,680 --> 00:08:02,840 Speaker 5: contractor or that's you know, the government itself, and then 144 00:08:02,840 --> 00:08:05,720 Speaker 5: you have the possibility of imprisonment. So there's a number 145 00:08:05,760 --> 00:08:07,920 Speaker 5: of things there, and of course obviously there's also those 146 00:08:08,240 --> 00:08:14,480 Speaker 5: threats and intimidation what David Crush had characterized as administrative terrorism. 147 00:08:15,240 --> 00:08:17,400 Speaker 5: So there's a number of things here. I think that 148 00:08:17,480 --> 00:08:20,560 Speaker 5: depends upon the individual that's involved in what their level 149 00:08:20,560 --> 00:08:22,960 Speaker 5: of involvement is, and whether that's with the actual government 150 00:08:23,040 --> 00:08:25,440 Speaker 5: or whether that's with a you know, a private contractor 151 00:08:25,680 --> 00:08:26,160 Speaker 5: you know, you're. 152 00:08:26,040 --> 00:08:28,800 Speaker 2: Talking about these whistleblower protections, and it just seems to 153 00:08:28,840 --> 00:08:33,200 Speaker 2: me like we're talking about transparency and protecting people that 154 00:08:33,240 --> 00:08:35,800 Speaker 2: want to share this kind of information. Who would be 155 00:08:35,960 --> 00:08:39,320 Speaker 2: against this and why it doesn't seem like it's a 156 00:08:39,320 --> 00:08:43,160 Speaker 2: partisan issue at all. Why wouldn't every politician just vote 157 00:08:43,160 --> 00:08:43,959 Speaker 2: for this immediately. 158 00:08:44,400 --> 00:08:46,720 Speaker 5: Well, you know, I think that, first of all, you're 159 00:08:46,800 --> 00:08:50,480 Speaker 5: right that there's a high level of bipartisanship here, and 160 00:08:50,559 --> 00:08:53,320 Speaker 5: it's probably one of the only issues in Washington, DC, 161 00:08:53,480 --> 00:08:56,920 Speaker 5: and you know, outside of the Beltway that is actually bipartisan. 162 00:08:56,960 --> 00:09:00,080 Speaker 5: I mean, there's a very little agreement on anything these days. 163 00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:02,760 Speaker 5: But you know, when you see these hearings, by and large, 164 00:09:03,160 --> 00:09:06,280 Speaker 5: you know, Democrats Republicans are working together and you know, 165 00:09:06,320 --> 00:09:08,480 Speaker 5: trying to get the most out of these hearings and 166 00:09:08,520 --> 00:09:11,000 Speaker 5: the most out of their witnesses. And that's also going 167 00:09:11,040 --> 00:09:13,080 Speaker 5: on behind the scenes in the work that they're doing 168 00:09:13,200 --> 00:09:16,160 Speaker 5: vetting witnesses, you know, vetting the information that they're receiving 169 00:09:16,160 --> 00:09:18,840 Speaker 5: from witnesses and that sort of thing, and their discussions 170 00:09:18,880 --> 00:09:21,440 Speaker 5: with people like Jeremy Corbell and others. You know, it's 171 00:09:21,440 --> 00:09:25,520 Speaker 5: a very bipartisan as far as why wouldn't theologists vote 172 00:09:25,559 --> 00:09:27,840 Speaker 5: for it? You know, you're talking about a very special 173 00:09:27,880 --> 00:09:31,319 Speaker 5: car ave out when it comes to UAP whistleboard protections. 174 00:09:31,520 --> 00:09:35,920 Speaker 5: And so though the UFO UAP issue has reduced stigma 175 00:09:36,000 --> 00:09:38,400 Speaker 5: quite a bit, it's a lot to ask for a 176 00:09:38,440 --> 00:09:41,400 Speaker 5: congressman or a congresswoman and congress person to vote for 177 00:09:41,480 --> 00:09:44,600 Speaker 5: something that they're not sure is actually real in the 178 00:09:44,640 --> 00:09:47,120 Speaker 5: sense that we're talking about a non human intelligence or something. 179 00:09:47,120 --> 00:09:49,240 Speaker 5: They might think that it might be a national security 180 00:09:49,360 --> 00:09:51,880 Speaker 5: black budget program or something like that. But you know, 181 00:09:52,040 --> 00:09:54,320 Speaker 5: not all of them are convinced that what we're discussing 182 00:09:54,360 --> 00:09:58,280 Speaker 5: today is actual reality to them. And some of them 183 00:09:58,280 --> 00:10:01,080 Speaker 5: are are you really well, i should say, not well 184 00:10:01,120 --> 00:10:03,480 Speaker 5: informed at all. You know, their staffs might be a 185 00:10:03,480 --> 00:10:05,600 Speaker 5: little bit better, but you know, some of the staff 186 00:10:05,640 --> 00:10:09,120 Speaker 5: actors gatekeepers themselves. It's not as easy as just, you know, 187 00:10:09,320 --> 00:10:12,720 Speaker 5: we shall vote for whistlebower protections because those usually do 188 00:10:12,880 --> 00:10:18,439 Speaker 5: pass with bipartisan level of support. You're having a very 189 00:10:18,480 --> 00:10:21,120 Speaker 5: special carve out, which in and of itself is a problem, 190 00:10:21,520 --> 00:10:23,360 Speaker 5: but you add on top of that the fact that 191 00:10:23,360 --> 00:10:28,240 Speaker 5: we're talking about EUAP NHI, then it becomes even more difficult. 192 00:10:28,280 --> 00:10:31,080 Speaker 5: So that's why we need to have something into law 193 00:10:31,200 --> 00:10:34,480 Speaker 5: like the uap DA or something like it first that 194 00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:37,520 Speaker 5: propels them forward to say, okay, we do have to 195 00:10:37,520 --> 00:10:39,800 Speaker 5: have these protections because you know, if we set up 196 00:10:39,800 --> 00:10:43,440 Speaker 5: the UAP Records Review Board, for example, they need better 197 00:10:43,480 --> 00:10:46,400 Speaker 5: access to information. And the way to do that isn't 198 00:10:46,400 --> 00:10:49,760 Speaker 5: simply only through subpoena, because you can subpoena somebody, but 199 00:10:49,760 --> 00:10:52,120 Speaker 5: they can also plead the Fifth Amendment, so they also 200 00:10:52,160 --> 00:10:56,319 Speaker 5: need those extra protections. So that was, you know, something 201 00:10:56,320 --> 00:10:58,280 Speaker 5: that would become you know, part of a sequence of 202 00:10:58,320 --> 00:11:00,839 Speaker 5: events that would happen. So the UAP and then perhaps 203 00:11:00,880 --> 00:11:01,960 Speaker 5: whistle board protections. 204 00:11:02,320 --> 00:11:04,480 Speaker 2: Okay, Kevin, when we come back, we're going to ask 205 00:11:04,520 --> 00:11:08,240 Speaker 2: you about what kinds of evidence these potential whistleblowers may have. 206 00:11:08,960 --> 00:11:11,439 Speaker 2: You're listening to Beyond Contact on the iHeartRadio and Coast 207 00:11:11,480 --> 00:11:15,480 Speaker 2: to Coast am Paranormal podcast network. 208 00:11:17,840 --> 00:11:22,800 Speaker 6: Thanks for listening to iHeartRadio More Captain Rod and Beyond Contact. 209 00:11:22,920 --> 00:11:24,199 Speaker 6: We'll be right back. 210 00:11:29,559 --> 00:11:30,800 Speaker 2: Take us with you anywhere. 211 00:11:30,960 --> 00:11:33,079 Speaker 7: This is the iHeart Radio and Coast to Coast AM 212 00:11:33,200 --> 00:11:34,960 Speaker 7: Paranormal Podcast Network. 213 00:11:41,080 --> 00:11:43,960 Speaker 6: Thanks for listening to the iHeart Radio and Coast to 214 00:11:44,040 --> 00:11:49,280 Speaker 6: Coast AM Paranormal Podcast Network. Now here's more Beyond Contact 215 00:11:49,520 --> 00:11:50,480 Speaker 6: with Captain Rod. 216 00:11:54,880 --> 00:11:57,480 Speaker 2: We're back on Beyond Contact. We're speaking with Kevin Wright 217 00:11:57,520 --> 00:12:01,280 Speaker 2: from Solve Advocacy. Ken, what kind of evidence do you 218 00:12:01,360 --> 00:12:05,920 Speaker 2: think these whistleblowers most commonly claim exists but maybe the 219 00:12:05,920 --> 00:12:07,400 Speaker 2: public hasn't seen yet. 220 00:12:08,080 --> 00:12:09,959 Speaker 5: Well, I think that depends upon the quality of the 221 00:12:10,000 --> 00:12:13,320 Speaker 5: whistleblower and whether they have firsthand you know, knowledge that's 222 00:12:13,320 --> 00:12:15,600 Speaker 5: something that they have seen for their themselves with their 223 00:12:15,640 --> 00:12:17,520 Speaker 5: own eyes or touched with, you know, their own hands, 224 00:12:17,720 --> 00:12:20,679 Speaker 5: or if they're a secondhand person who has talked to somebody. 225 00:12:21,280 --> 00:12:24,280 Speaker 5: You know, some of these things become hearsaved. And therefore, 226 00:12:24,320 --> 00:12:26,200 Speaker 5: if we talk about like a criminal court of law 227 00:12:26,280 --> 00:12:29,000 Speaker 5: or even a civil court of law, you know, hearsay 228 00:12:29,080 --> 00:12:31,880 Speaker 5: is generally admissible. So it has to do with the 229 00:12:31,960 --> 00:12:33,839 Speaker 5: quality of the whistle blower. But you know, I think 230 00:12:33,880 --> 00:12:38,520 Speaker 5: what we're talking about here with the first hand witnesses 231 00:12:39,000 --> 00:12:42,080 Speaker 5: are people who have been inside of the legacy program 232 00:12:42,400 --> 00:12:45,400 Speaker 5: in some shape or form and have been part of 233 00:12:45,640 --> 00:12:48,160 Speaker 5: a crash retrieval program, who have been out in the 234 00:12:48,160 --> 00:12:52,440 Speaker 5: field and retrieved a craft or pieces of craft, biologics 235 00:12:52,480 --> 00:12:54,520 Speaker 5: or bodies or whatever you'd like to call them. And 236 00:12:54,559 --> 00:12:57,480 Speaker 5: then obviously, you know, there are other ones who have 237 00:12:58,600 --> 00:13:02,880 Speaker 5: seen the photographs, seen video, who have done material analysis, 238 00:13:03,400 --> 00:13:07,040 Speaker 5: biological analyzes, and others who have you know, a little 239 00:13:07,080 --> 00:13:10,680 Speaker 5: less visibility on the subject, but who have read the report, 240 00:13:10,880 --> 00:13:13,920 Speaker 5: say like an autopsy report or something like that. So 241 00:13:14,400 --> 00:13:18,640 Speaker 5: there's varying levels there, But I think that we generally 242 00:13:18,679 --> 00:13:21,600 Speaker 5: agree that if what we're talking about is all true, 243 00:13:21,640 --> 00:13:23,960 Speaker 5: then we're talking about people who have had, you know, 244 00:13:24,040 --> 00:13:28,199 Speaker 5: firsthand accounts of hands on experience with a crash atrieval 245 00:13:28,520 --> 00:13:33,600 Speaker 5: or reverse engineering program, materials analysis, you know, biological evidence, 246 00:13:33,720 --> 00:13:35,240 Speaker 5: DNA testing, that sort of thing. 247 00:13:35,840 --> 00:13:38,120 Speaker 2: Wasn't that the big problem with Grush? A lot of 248 00:13:38,120 --> 00:13:40,640 Speaker 2: people said that, you know, he wasn't a first hand 249 00:13:40,679 --> 00:13:42,280 Speaker 2: witness to a lot of these things, a lot of 250 00:13:42,320 --> 00:13:44,720 Speaker 2: it was secondhand, and that was one of the criticisms 251 00:13:44,720 --> 00:13:45,080 Speaker 2: of him. 252 00:13:45,440 --> 00:13:49,079 Speaker 5: Well, yeah, but I think that I'm of the belief that, 253 00:13:49,280 --> 00:13:50,959 Speaker 5: you know, David Grush has a lot more to tell 254 00:13:51,360 --> 00:13:54,400 Speaker 5: with his experience what he has seen. That's just sort 255 00:13:54,400 --> 00:13:57,120 Speaker 5: of an educated guess, of course, but I think he 256 00:13:57,320 --> 00:13:58,960 Speaker 5: probably has a lot more that he would like to 257 00:13:59,000 --> 00:14:01,880 Speaker 5: share if he were allowed to do so. And I 258 00:14:01,920 --> 00:14:04,079 Speaker 5: think that if you were allowed to do so, he'd 259 00:14:04,080 --> 00:14:06,679 Speaker 5: probably have much more compelling evidence to produce. 260 00:14:07,000 --> 00:14:08,840 Speaker 2: And I would love to see that happen. What's the 261 00:14:08,880 --> 00:14:13,200 Speaker 2: compulsion both a lot of us, I'm sure, brother, what's 262 00:14:13,200 --> 00:14:15,760 Speaker 2: the compulsion of these people who want to come forward? 263 00:14:15,920 --> 00:14:17,880 Speaker 2: Do you think they want to do it because it's 264 00:14:18,000 --> 00:14:20,960 Speaker 2: like this is bigger than us as humans or governments 265 00:14:21,040 --> 00:14:23,240 Speaker 2: or whatever, because it's like we all have a right 266 00:14:23,280 --> 00:14:25,320 Speaker 2: to know this if there's life in the universe. 267 00:14:26,080 --> 00:14:29,120 Speaker 5: I think that it probably depends upon the individual. I 268 00:14:29,120 --> 00:14:32,800 Speaker 5: think there are some that have very altruistic reasons that are, 269 00:14:33,080 --> 00:14:34,800 Speaker 5: you know, everyone has a right to know this thing. 270 00:14:35,400 --> 00:14:38,040 Speaker 5: You know, you can't classify reality, you know, sort of 271 00:14:38,040 --> 00:14:41,520 Speaker 5: that mindset. And then there's others who simply object to, 272 00:14:41,920 --> 00:14:43,880 Speaker 5: you know, the way the program has been handled, what 273 00:14:44,200 --> 00:14:47,400 Speaker 5: allegations of things that have been done to individuals to 274 00:14:47,440 --> 00:14:49,480 Speaker 5: cover this up over the course of the last eighty years. 275 00:14:49,480 --> 00:14:52,680 Speaker 5: They have, you know, moral objections moral or ethical objections 276 00:14:52,680 --> 00:14:55,360 Speaker 5: to those sorts of things. And then there's also probably 277 00:14:55,400 --> 00:14:58,880 Speaker 5: people who look at the issue, you know, from more 278 00:14:58,920 --> 00:15:01,200 Speaker 5: of a national security of spirit perspective and think that 279 00:15:01,440 --> 00:15:04,160 Speaker 5: if it's true that we've made very little to no 280 00:15:04,320 --> 00:15:08,560 Speaker 5: progress in you know, the reverse engineering endeavor, then you know, 281 00:15:08,640 --> 00:15:10,800 Speaker 5: part of the reason for that is the stove piping 282 00:15:11,040 --> 00:15:14,240 Speaker 5: and the compartmentalization of it. And the only way for 283 00:15:14,360 --> 00:15:16,600 Speaker 5: us to make better progress against say, some of our 284 00:15:16,600 --> 00:15:19,720 Speaker 5: adversaries like a China or something is for us to 285 00:15:19,760 --> 00:15:21,360 Speaker 5: bring this out into the more light of the day 286 00:15:21,400 --> 00:15:23,200 Speaker 5: so we can get more you know, sharp minds and 287 00:15:23,280 --> 00:15:27,320 Speaker 5: scientists and physicists and mathematicians and things onto the subject 288 00:15:27,400 --> 00:15:29,560 Speaker 5: so that we can make more progress. Of course, that 289 00:15:29,680 --> 00:15:31,880 Speaker 5: might not be true. We might have made tons of progress, 290 00:15:31,920 --> 00:15:33,440 Speaker 5: so there might be other reasons. But you know, I 291 00:15:33,440 --> 00:15:35,720 Speaker 5: think it depends upon the individual, what their experience is 292 00:15:35,760 --> 00:15:38,080 Speaker 5: and what their worldview is. You know, some of those 293 00:15:38,080 --> 00:15:40,480 Speaker 5: people who have obviously tried to keep the secret for 294 00:15:40,520 --> 00:15:43,760 Speaker 5: the last eighty years have a much more Machiavelian worldview 295 00:15:43,840 --> 00:15:47,960 Speaker 5: where I'm fine having this knowledge, I can handle it, 296 00:15:48,400 --> 00:15:53,160 Speaker 5: but I deem you unworthy andable of handling the truth. 297 00:15:53,280 --> 00:15:55,640 Speaker 2: So yeah, I actually I actually can get my head 298 00:15:55,640 --> 00:15:58,440 Speaker 2: around that viewpoint too. As sad as that is, I can. 299 00:15:58,480 --> 00:16:01,440 Speaker 2: I can imagine if depending and how heavy it really is. 300 00:16:01,760 --> 00:16:06,360 Speaker 2: I love that phrasing of you can't classify reality. That's yeah, 301 00:16:06,600 --> 00:16:08,720 Speaker 2: that should be writing in a book somewhere. Since this 302 00:16:08,800 --> 00:16:11,680 Speaker 2: stuff is so classified and kept secret, do you believe 303 00:16:11,800 --> 00:16:15,560 Speaker 2: Congress even fully understands the scope of what they're there 304 00:16:15,560 --> 00:16:16,440 Speaker 2: to investigate. 305 00:16:17,320 --> 00:16:19,000 Speaker 5: I don't, And I think that's sort of part of 306 00:16:19,040 --> 00:16:22,280 Speaker 5: the problem with trying to convince enough members to you know, 307 00:16:22,400 --> 00:16:26,080 Speaker 5: rally around legislation like the UAP Disclosure Act, is that 308 00:16:26,080 --> 00:16:30,320 Speaker 5: there are not enough members who know enough, and even 309 00:16:30,360 --> 00:16:32,960 Speaker 5: some of the members who do have, you know, quite 310 00:16:33,000 --> 00:16:33,800 Speaker 5: a bit of information. 311 00:16:33,920 --> 00:16:34,080 Speaker 6: You know. 312 00:16:34,680 --> 00:16:37,640 Speaker 5: Unfortunately, Marco Rubio is now Secretary of State, not no 313 00:16:37,720 --> 00:16:39,600 Speaker 5: longer in the United States Senate, but you know, when 314 00:16:39,600 --> 00:16:42,000 Speaker 5: he was in the Senate and a member of Intelligence 315 00:16:42,000 --> 00:16:45,479 Speaker 5: Committee and others who are on Armed Services and Intelligence 316 00:16:45,480 --> 00:16:48,160 Speaker 5: at the time they were doing these investigations, you know, 317 00:16:48,320 --> 00:16:51,760 Speaker 5: stemming from the New York Times article in December twenty seventeen. 318 00:16:52,400 --> 00:16:55,360 Speaker 5: You'll notice that, you know, immediately in twenty eighteen and 319 00:16:55,400 --> 00:17:00,520 Speaker 5: moving forward, you know, there was UAP stuff in and 320 00:17:00,640 --> 00:17:03,840 Speaker 5: the NDA and other pieces of legislation in pretty much 321 00:17:03,880 --> 00:17:07,800 Speaker 5: every single year as they investigated, as they learned more. 322 00:17:08,400 --> 00:17:11,359 Speaker 5: But at the same time, it's a very limited number 323 00:17:11,400 --> 00:17:15,520 Speaker 5: of people who have done that investigation, who have had 324 00:17:15,560 --> 00:17:18,920 Speaker 5: those briefings from the professional staff on you know, SASK 325 00:17:18,960 --> 00:17:21,680 Speaker 5: and SISSY and on the House side, the House Armed 326 00:17:21,720 --> 00:17:24,800 Speaker 5: Services Committee and the House Permit Selectivity on intelligence. So 327 00:17:25,160 --> 00:17:27,520 Speaker 5: part of my job over the last year and a 328 00:17:27,560 --> 00:17:30,320 Speaker 5: half two years has been two brief members of Congress 329 00:17:30,320 --> 00:17:33,120 Speaker 5: and their staff into the reality you know that this 330 00:17:33,200 --> 00:17:35,680 Speaker 5: is something that is real that they should take better 331 00:17:35,720 --> 00:17:40,080 Speaker 5: attention towards and you know, give serious consideration to, you know, 332 00:17:40,119 --> 00:17:43,160 Speaker 5: supporting legislation like this, because the vast majority of them 333 00:17:43,200 --> 00:17:44,720 Speaker 5: just have no idea. 334 00:17:44,920 --> 00:17:47,360 Speaker 2: Wow, how do they respond to that when you tell them. 335 00:17:47,560 --> 00:17:50,679 Speaker 5: I think it's kind of shock. And one of the 336 00:17:50,680 --> 00:17:52,879 Speaker 5: best pieces of evidence that you can provide to the 337 00:17:52,920 --> 00:17:54,960 Speaker 5: member of Congress is what the work is of other 338 00:17:55,000 --> 00:17:57,879 Speaker 5: members of Congress. And so when you show them, you know, 339 00:17:57,920 --> 00:18:01,240 Speaker 5: the UAP Disclosure Act and who spawns it, especially in 340 00:18:01,280 --> 00:18:04,119 Speaker 5: twenty twenty three with then Majority Leader Chuck Schumer and 341 00:18:04,200 --> 00:18:07,760 Speaker 5: Marco Rubio and others, of course, Mike Browns used the 342 00:18:07,760 --> 00:18:09,680 Speaker 5: co sponsor to meet co sponsor there, so I should 343 00:18:09,840 --> 00:18:12,240 Speaker 5: leave him out. But they have to take notice and say, oh, 344 00:18:12,600 --> 00:18:14,439 Speaker 5: you know, sort of oh my god, you know this 345 00:18:14,560 --> 00:18:17,560 Speaker 5: legislation exists. It comes from the United States Senate. You know, 346 00:18:17,600 --> 00:18:19,520 Speaker 5: the majority of leader of the United States Senate was 347 00:18:19,640 --> 00:18:22,320 Speaker 5: a signator to this legislation. You know, I have to 348 00:18:22,320 --> 00:18:24,600 Speaker 5: think that to at least yes, I have to at 349 00:18:24,720 --> 00:18:27,600 Speaker 5: least take a second look and consider what it is 350 00:18:27,600 --> 00:18:28,240 Speaker 5: that you're telling me. 351 00:18:28,720 --> 00:18:30,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, it was great that those guys did that, because 352 00:18:30,760 --> 00:18:33,520 Speaker 2: that does give it that credibility. Do you think if 353 00:18:33,520 --> 00:18:36,600 Speaker 2: we get this act passed, or we get some legislation 354 00:18:36,760 --> 00:18:39,360 Speaker 2: through that helps whistle blowers, do you think that I'll 355 00:18:39,400 --> 00:18:42,159 Speaker 2: move the needle in the general public, because I feel 356 00:18:42,200 --> 00:18:45,800 Speaker 2: like we've had all these prominent people come out already 357 00:18:45,880 --> 00:18:48,680 Speaker 2: and go on the record and say that this is real, 358 00:18:49,040 --> 00:18:51,560 Speaker 2: but for most people that's not proof and doesn't move 359 00:18:51,600 --> 00:18:52,000 Speaker 2: the needle. 360 00:18:52,359 --> 00:18:54,119 Speaker 5: Well, I think that we're seeing over the course of 361 00:18:54,119 --> 00:18:56,879 Speaker 5: the last several years, you know, poll numbers showing that 362 00:18:57,240 --> 00:19:00,960 Speaker 5: more and more Americans are coming to the realization that 363 00:19:01,000 --> 00:19:03,639 Speaker 5: the government knows a whole lot more about the issue 364 00:19:03,680 --> 00:19:06,280 Speaker 5: of you know, uap UFOs. Then it has led on 365 00:19:07,000 --> 00:19:09,800 Speaker 5: and even more people think that the government has not 366 00:19:09,840 --> 00:19:12,600 Speaker 5: been honest with truthful or forthcoming with what it is 367 00:19:12,640 --> 00:19:15,359 Speaker 5: that they know. And you know, you see these hearings 368 00:19:15,400 --> 00:19:17,760 Speaker 5: and it raises the level of awareness, and then you 369 00:19:17,800 --> 00:19:19,919 Speaker 5: get a movie like, you know, The Age of Disclosure 370 00:19:20,000 --> 00:19:22,920 Speaker 5: by Dan Farrah and you know, one of the top 371 00:19:23,000 --> 00:19:26,520 Speaker 5: selling documentaries on Amazon this fall, you know, starting just 372 00:19:26,640 --> 00:19:29,680 Speaker 5: you know, before Thanksgiving, and you know, the level of 373 00:19:29,680 --> 00:19:33,120 Speaker 5: awareness is going to continue to increase. But what has 374 00:19:33,160 --> 00:19:35,160 Speaker 5: to happen next is we have to have a groundswell 375 00:19:35,480 --> 00:19:38,919 Speaker 5: of people who are demanding to have the truth. Not 376 00:19:39,080 --> 00:19:41,560 Speaker 5: just you know, a few thousand people who you know, 377 00:19:41,680 --> 00:19:44,919 Speaker 5: serve on x or Reddit or something else, you know, 378 00:19:44,920 --> 00:19:47,640 Speaker 5: that care very much about the subject. But we've got 379 00:19:47,640 --> 00:19:49,040 Speaker 5: to get a whole lot more other people to care 380 00:19:49,080 --> 00:19:51,560 Speaker 5: about the subject as well. Because once we do that, 381 00:19:51,680 --> 00:19:54,560 Speaker 5: then members of Congress have to really start to listen 382 00:19:54,600 --> 00:19:56,640 Speaker 5: and pay attention and do some of the hard work 383 00:19:56,640 --> 00:19:57,480 Speaker 5: that they're unwilling to do. 384 00:19:57,560 --> 00:20:00,119 Speaker 2: Right now, it's not going fast enough for me. I'll 385 00:20:00,119 --> 00:20:02,639 Speaker 2: tell you, I want people to all stand up and 386 00:20:02,720 --> 00:20:05,840 Speaker 2: let's get this thing moving forward. Kevin. This goes beyond 387 00:20:06,320 --> 00:20:09,320 Speaker 2: just GFOS, right, Like we're talking about this system in 388 00:20:09,359 --> 00:20:13,720 Speaker 2: place of classification and keeping patents secret, and it extends 389 00:20:13,760 --> 00:20:18,400 Speaker 2: into energy technologies and propulsion systems, and of course including 390 00:20:18,480 --> 00:20:23,040 Speaker 2: technologies of unknown origin, like anything significant they somehow want 391 00:20:23,040 --> 00:20:26,240 Speaker 2: to make sure they control it. Doesn't it feel that way? 392 00:20:26,680 --> 00:20:28,480 Speaker 5: Well, it's more than just fuel that way, because that's 393 00:20:28,480 --> 00:20:30,679 Speaker 5: what exactly has been going on since you know, the 394 00:20:30,720 --> 00:20:34,280 Speaker 5: late nineteen forties or the nineteen fifties with classifying you know, 395 00:20:34,440 --> 00:20:37,680 Speaker 5: anything and everything. You know, I think that initially post 396 00:20:37,720 --> 00:20:40,720 Speaker 5: World War Two, going into you know, the Cold War, 397 00:20:41,040 --> 00:20:43,320 Speaker 5: you know, there was a lot of fear of the 398 00:20:43,320 --> 00:20:45,959 Speaker 5: Soviet Union, and so a lot of the ideas that 399 00:20:46,119 --> 00:20:49,679 Speaker 5: stem from sitting up national security apparatuses the CIA and 400 00:20:49,720 --> 00:20:52,720 Speaker 5: things was well intentioned, but you know, it's just sort 401 00:20:52,760 --> 00:20:55,440 Speaker 5: of gotten out of control, and it's easier to go 402 00:20:55,560 --> 00:20:58,840 Speaker 5: to you know, the de facto it's classified, it's a 403 00:20:58,920 --> 00:21:01,679 Speaker 5: national security issue. It's easier just to just do that 404 00:21:01,720 --> 00:21:03,680 Speaker 5: than it is to come out with anything or allow 405 00:21:03,720 --> 00:21:06,040 Speaker 5: anything to come out. You know, we have an issue 406 00:21:06,040 --> 00:21:09,480 Speaker 5: here where the government can claim national security exemptions for 407 00:21:09,720 --> 00:21:12,240 Speaker 5: anything and everything that it wants to and it's basically 408 00:21:12,280 --> 00:21:15,119 Speaker 5: impossible to even question that from a political stance because 409 00:21:15,200 --> 00:21:17,640 Speaker 5: who wants to question whether something is actually a matter 410 00:21:17,640 --> 00:21:20,240 Speaker 5: of national security and potentially put lives in danger. And 411 00:21:20,280 --> 00:21:22,120 Speaker 5: then the courts are the same way. They pretty much 412 00:21:22,119 --> 00:21:25,640 Speaker 5: always defer, you know, to the executive branch on matters 413 00:21:25,680 --> 00:21:28,840 Speaker 5: of classification and national security because they don't want to 414 00:21:28,840 --> 00:21:30,760 Speaker 5: be left, you know, sitting there holding the bag if 415 00:21:30,760 --> 00:21:33,639 Speaker 5: they're wrong and somebody dies as a result, or you know, 416 00:21:34,040 --> 00:21:37,680 Speaker 5: something bad happens, right, So it's an impenetrable legal shield 417 00:21:37,680 --> 00:21:41,000 Speaker 5: almost that they use to justify, you know, hiding pretty 418 00:21:41,040 --> 00:21:43,480 Speaker 5: much anything from like you said, the patents. I think 419 00:21:43,560 --> 00:21:47,600 Speaker 5: right now there's like six one hundred something patents under 420 00:21:47,640 --> 00:21:49,959 Speaker 5: secrecy orders, you know, and that has anything to do 421 00:21:50,000 --> 00:21:54,480 Speaker 5: with energy, energy distribution, and propulsion manufacturing, all kinds of things. 422 00:21:54,600 --> 00:21:57,560 Speaker 5: So you have to question where we might be today 423 00:21:57,880 --> 00:22:01,439 Speaker 5: if more of these technologies and and ideas wherever we 424 00:22:01,480 --> 00:22:03,760 Speaker 5: see the outlight of day, and that would include you know, 425 00:22:03,840 --> 00:22:06,680 Speaker 5: what might be learned or might have been learned from 426 00:22:06,800 --> 00:22:09,720 Speaker 5: you know, these cross a tree of h We werecessionary programs. 427 00:22:09,359 --> 00:22:11,960 Speaker 2: One hundred percent. I always think if that information on 428 00:22:12,080 --> 00:22:15,200 Speaker 2: each of these things was shared, even not the alien stuff, 429 00:22:15,320 --> 00:22:19,160 Speaker 2: just our own development. If we shared it with other humans, 430 00:22:19,160 --> 00:22:21,040 Speaker 2: and if they were all working on things together, how 431 00:22:21,119 --> 00:22:23,160 Speaker 2: much further would be along When we come back, We're 432 00:22:23,160 --> 00:22:25,439 Speaker 2: going to ask Kevin who in the government he thinks 433 00:22:25,680 --> 00:22:28,679 Speaker 2: has this knowledge about UFOs and even aliens. Is it 434 00:22:28,680 --> 00:22:30,920 Speaker 2: a legacy group? What is it? You're listening to be 435 00:22:31,040 --> 00:22:33,679 Speaker 2: on Contact on the iHeartRadio and Coast to Coast AM 436 00:22:33,760 --> 00:22:38,200 Speaker 2: Paranormal podcast network. 437 00:22:43,280 --> 00:22:47,720 Speaker 1: The art Belvault never disappoints classic audio at your fingertips. 438 00:22:47,800 --> 00:22:51,040 Speaker 1: Go now to Coast to cooastam dot com for full details. 439 00:22:55,840 --> 00:22:59,480 Speaker 1: The Internet is an extraordinary resource that links our children 440 00:22:59,520 --> 00:23:03,920 Speaker 1: to a ward of information, experiences, and ideas. It also 441 00:23:04,000 --> 00:23:07,520 Speaker 1: can expose them to risk. Teach your children the basic 442 00:23:07,600 --> 00:23:11,640 Speaker 1: safety rules of the virtual world. Our children are everything. 443 00:23:12,000 --> 00:23:19,879 Speaker 1: Do everything for them. 444 00:23:19,920 --> 00:23:25,359 Speaker 7: On the iHeartRadio and Coast AM paranol podcast network. Listen 445 00:23:25,440 --> 00:23:27,000 Speaker 7: anytime any place. 446 00:23:35,400 --> 00:23:37,680 Speaker 2: We are back on Beyond Contact, we're speaking with Kevin 447 00:23:37,720 --> 00:23:41,600 Speaker 2: Wright from Solve Advocacy. Kevin, obviously you're very convinced that 448 00:23:41,640 --> 00:23:45,720 Speaker 2: our government, or at least a small cabal within the government, 449 00:23:45,880 --> 00:23:49,040 Speaker 2: does have knowledge about this issue. How do you think 450 00:23:49,080 --> 00:23:51,760 Speaker 2: this works? Do you think that there's this tiny faction 451 00:23:52,040 --> 00:23:54,919 Speaker 2: that really holds onto this knowledge and they're able to 452 00:23:54,960 --> 00:23:58,199 Speaker 2: operate within a special access project that's hidden from the 453 00:23:58,200 --> 00:24:01,560 Speaker 2: rest of us. Is it a legacy program that stays 454 00:24:01,720 --> 00:24:03,639 Speaker 2: exempt from Congress? How do you think it works? 455 00:24:03,920 --> 00:24:05,399 Speaker 5: Well, I think there's probably a number of things that 456 00:24:05,480 --> 00:24:08,240 Speaker 5: play here. You know, they call it the legacy program 457 00:24:08,600 --> 00:24:11,840 Speaker 5: because it dates back for so long. It's probably changed, 458 00:24:12,000 --> 00:24:15,280 Speaker 5: you know, a number of times over the decades, because 459 00:24:15,359 --> 00:24:18,760 Speaker 5: you know, if you believe that the literature on the subject, 460 00:24:18,760 --> 00:24:20,960 Speaker 5: that it has come close at least once or twice 461 00:24:21,080 --> 00:24:24,679 Speaker 5: to having been exposed, once during an investigation by some 462 00:24:24,720 --> 00:24:28,600 Speaker 5: staffers the United States Senate, you know, looking into classified 463 00:24:28,600 --> 00:24:31,800 Speaker 5: programs and black budgets and that sort of thing, possibly 464 00:24:31,800 --> 00:24:35,159 Speaker 5: once or twice other times as well. And so I 465 00:24:35,200 --> 00:24:37,800 Speaker 5: think that you know, it's changed over time and how 466 00:24:37,800 --> 00:24:40,560 Speaker 5: it operates, and you know, they learned the lessons from 467 00:24:40,640 --> 00:24:43,080 Speaker 5: those times in which it might have almost been exposed 468 00:24:43,480 --> 00:24:47,159 Speaker 5: and add extra layers of you know, security classification, that 469 00:24:47,240 --> 00:24:50,080 Speaker 5: sort of thing. As to you know, the number of 470 00:24:50,119 --> 00:24:52,920 Speaker 5: people that actually know, I don't know that we can 471 00:24:53,160 --> 00:24:55,520 Speaker 5: even take a guess at that whether that's you know, 472 00:24:55,640 --> 00:24:58,520 Speaker 5: ten people or a thousand people. I think we'd probably 473 00:24:58,560 --> 00:25:00,560 Speaker 5: be surprised to know that it's probably more people that 474 00:25:00,720 --> 00:25:03,919 Speaker 5: have some not the complete picture, but some piece of 475 00:25:03,920 --> 00:25:06,439 Speaker 5: the puzzle, because you have so many different parts of 476 00:25:06,440 --> 00:25:09,760 Speaker 5: the puzzle in the different locations working on different aspects 477 00:25:09,880 --> 00:25:12,000 Speaker 5: of the entirety of the program. But they just don't 478 00:25:12,000 --> 00:25:14,280 Speaker 5: have the thirty thousand foot view where they can see 479 00:25:14,280 --> 00:25:16,880 Speaker 5: the whole pictures. 480 00:25:15,800 --> 00:25:19,000 Speaker 2: That blind guy touching an elephant thing, right, it's so compartmentalized. 481 00:25:19,040 --> 00:25:20,679 Speaker 2: Everybody just gets a little piece. 482 00:25:20,480 --> 00:25:24,600 Speaker 5: Kind of thing, it seems, right, exactly. It's probably extraordinarily complex. 483 00:25:24,800 --> 00:25:29,439 Speaker 5: And you know, there are career bureaucrats who go in 484 00:25:29,480 --> 00:25:32,080 Speaker 5: and out of government that go into you know, defense 485 00:25:32,520 --> 00:25:35,159 Speaker 5: sector companies in and out of there. You know, they 486 00:25:35,160 --> 00:25:37,879 Speaker 5: don't call the you know, the revolving door of lobbying 487 00:25:37,920 --> 00:25:39,960 Speaker 5: in those sorts of things for nothing, because it's goes 488 00:25:40,040 --> 00:25:42,880 Speaker 5: back and forth both ways. You know, it's been alleged 489 00:25:42,920 --> 00:25:45,560 Speaker 5: that someone like a Dick Cheney, you know, played some role. 490 00:25:45,640 --> 00:25:47,199 Speaker 5: Some people say that he was at the top of 491 00:25:47,240 --> 00:25:48,840 Speaker 5: the pyramid of this. You know, I don't know if 492 00:25:48,840 --> 00:25:51,080 Speaker 5: that's true or not, but that would show you that 493 00:25:51,119 --> 00:25:54,159 Speaker 5: if that remained true until his death. Then you know, 494 00:25:54,240 --> 00:25:57,480 Speaker 5: he outlived lots of arts of the program and stayed 495 00:25:57,480 --> 00:25:59,639 Speaker 5: inside of it even though he had left government. And 496 00:25:59,680 --> 00:26:01,800 Speaker 5: there you know, it also goes to the fact that 497 00:26:01,920 --> 00:26:04,080 Speaker 5: there are very few Electric officials, if any at this 498 00:26:04,119 --> 00:26:06,600 Speaker 5: present time, that know, you know much of anything about it, 499 00:26:06,640 --> 00:26:10,919 Speaker 5: because they are looked at as temporary employees. Absolutely, they 500 00:26:11,000 --> 00:26:13,080 Speaker 5: can lose an election and be gone in two years. 501 00:26:13,080 --> 00:26:14,960 Speaker 5: With six years if you're in the Senate, you know 502 00:26:15,000 --> 00:26:16,840 Speaker 5: you don't have to worry about them again. So why 503 00:26:17,119 --> 00:26:19,520 Speaker 5: divulge any of this sort of information to them? 504 00:26:19,760 --> 00:26:21,560 Speaker 2: No need to know. And then also the way they 505 00:26:21,680 --> 00:26:24,800 Speaker 2: ship these things off to these private corporations. Now now 506 00:26:24,800 --> 00:26:27,600 Speaker 2: we can't even get them from foyer requests or classifications 507 00:26:27,640 --> 00:26:31,159 Speaker 2: because they're in these private companies. I mean, it's really incredible. 508 00:26:31,240 --> 00:26:34,080 Speaker 2: This is a way more tangled web, I think than 509 00:26:34,119 --> 00:26:36,359 Speaker 2: most people realize. You know, there's so many people I 510 00:26:36,440 --> 00:26:39,720 Speaker 2: talk to and they continue to say, well, we still 511 00:26:39,760 --> 00:26:42,720 Speaker 2: don't really have proof. And you mentioned agent disclosure, which 512 00:26:42,760 --> 00:26:46,280 Speaker 2: I thought was surprisingly good. Here we have very high 513 00:26:46,359 --> 00:26:49,480 Speaker 2: ranking people willing to risk their reputation and go on 514 00:26:49,600 --> 00:26:52,560 Speaker 2: record with some pretty strong claims. Yet there's many people 515 00:26:52,560 --> 00:26:54,119 Speaker 2: that say, at the end of the day, they still 516 00:26:54,160 --> 00:26:56,720 Speaker 2: don't have enough proof from that. What do you say 517 00:26:56,760 --> 00:26:57,120 Speaker 2: to that. 518 00:26:57,600 --> 00:27:00,439 Speaker 5: I think it's sort of just cognitive dissonance, because you know, 519 00:27:00,560 --> 00:27:03,879 Speaker 5: there is lots of evidence, you know, historically from the 520 00:27:03,960 --> 00:27:06,959 Speaker 5: nineteen forties forward, that we're dealing with something that is 521 00:27:07,000 --> 00:27:11,639 Speaker 5: not explainable by US technology or foreign adversary, you know, 522 00:27:11,680 --> 00:27:15,560 Speaker 5: and that really begins directly after World War Two and 523 00:27:15,760 --> 00:27:18,760 Speaker 5: the build up the atomic warfare assets of the United States, 524 00:27:18,920 --> 00:27:21,600 Speaker 5: you know, right from the beginning, from you know, uranium 525 00:27:21,600 --> 00:27:25,520 Speaker 5: mining to enrichment, to building the core pits for you know, 526 00:27:25,560 --> 00:27:30,240 Speaker 5: the nuclear bombs, to manufacturing of ICBMs to them being 527 00:27:30,280 --> 00:27:33,600 Speaker 5: installed in their silos. There were UFOs or uap whatever 528 00:27:33,600 --> 00:27:36,320 Speaker 5: you want to call them, orbs, you know, surveilling what 529 00:27:36,480 --> 00:27:39,080 Speaker 5: was going on all through that time period. And you know, 530 00:27:39,119 --> 00:27:42,320 Speaker 5: in the late nineteen forties early fifties, China was going 531 00:27:42,400 --> 00:27:45,040 Speaker 5: through you know, the cultural Revolution, and they were literally 532 00:27:45,119 --> 00:27:48,359 Speaker 5: murdering their scientists and doctors and teachers and things, you know, 533 00:27:48,480 --> 00:27:50,359 Speaker 5: so you know, that set them back, you know, at 534 00:27:50,440 --> 00:27:52,480 Speaker 5: least a generation, and they didn't have their first nuclear 535 00:27:52,480 --> 00:27:54,840 Speaker 5: detonation until I think nineteen sixty four or something. I 536 00:27:54,880 --> 00:27:56,800 Speaker 5: could be wrong about that. And then of course, you know, 537 00:27:56,920 --> 00:28:01,440 Speaker 5: Russia developed their own nuclear devices not longer after we did, 538 00:28:01,600 --> 00:28:04,320 Speaker 5: but you know, they certainly didn't have the capability to 539 00:28:04,400 --> 00:28:07,520 Speaker 5: do overflight the United States and just surveillance right over 540 00:28:07,560 --> 00:28:12,040 Speaker 5: the top, you know, sensitive nuclear and military installations with impunity. 541 00:28:12,080 --> 00:28:14,760 Speaker 5: Of course, that would never have been allowed. There's just 542 00:28:14,760 --> 00:28:16,840 Speaker 5: no way that would have been kosher with you know, 543 00:28:16,880 --> 00:28:19,840 Speaker 5: whether that was Trueman or Eisenhower or anybody else moving forward, 544 00:28:20,280 --> 00:28:22,760 Speaker 5: they would never have allowed that. And of course, you know, 545 00:28:22,800 --> 00:28:24,800 Speaker 5: the Russians and nobody else had the technologies to be 546 00:28:24,840 --> 00:28:26,600 Speaker 5: able to do that sort of thing. So you know, 547 00:28:26,640 --> 00:28:28,320 Speaker 5: we have the evidence dating back to there. And then 548 00:28:28,359 --> 00:28:32,119 Speaker 5: we have the nineteen seventy one Australian intelligence assessment that 549 00:28:32,240 --> 00:28:35,480 Speaker 5: determined that the stigma and everything else have been built 550 00:28:35,560 --> 00:28:38,520 Speaker 5: up around UFOs, and you know, the government of the 551 00:28:38,640 --> 00:28:41,920 Speaker 5: United States government saying that these things don't exist was 552 00:28:42,000 --> 00:28:44,400 Speaker 5: all just you know, a ruse to cover up the 553 00:28:44,440 --> 00:28:47,480 Speaker 5: fact that they were in fact looking to you know, 554 00:28:47,560 --> 00:28:51,440 Speaker 5: reverse engineer UFOs at least in terms of their capabilities. 555 00:28:52,200 --> 00:28:54,200 Speaker 5: And you've had you know, any number of documents and 556 00:28:54,280 --> 00:28:58,560 Speaker 5: witnesses and astronauts and military officials coming forward. So, you know, 557 00:28:58,600 --> 00:29:00,720 Speaker 5: the thirty two or thirty four people that came forward 558 00:29:00,720 --> 00:29:02,640 Speaker 5: in the Age disclosure, you know, we shtill a plot 559 00:29:02,680 --> 00:29:04,800 Speaker 5: all of them, but you know, they were preceded by 560 00:29:05,240 --> 00:29:08,000 Speaker 5: an equal amount, if not more, of people the decades 561 00:29:08,040 --> 00:29:11,360 Speaker 5: who come forward and said the same exact thing, just 562 00:29:11,400 --> 00:29:12,760 Speaker 5: nobody else not paying attention. 563 00:29:12,960 --> 00:29:15,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's a great point, man. You know, how are 564 00:29:15,120 --> 00:29:18,000 Speaker 2: these guys even able to say what they say? You know, 565 00:29:18,040 --> 00:29:21,480 Speaker 2: we hear about all these NDAs and classified programs, but 566 00:29:21,520 --> 00:29:23,400 Speaker 2: then you watch a movie like that or some of 567 00:29:23,440 --> 00:29:26,280 Speaker 2: these other things, and these very high level guys flat 568 00:29:26,280 --> 00:29:30,520 Speaker 2: out say we've recovered alien ships, We've seen the beings. 569 00:29:31,120 --> 00:29:34,960 Speaker 2: Wouldn't that alone be classified or under some sort of NDA. 570 00:29:35,240 --> 00:29:38,040 Speaker 2: It seems like there's a disconnect to me somehow, Well, 571 00:29:38,080 --> 00:29:40,280 Speaker 2: you raise a great point. I think that that raises 572 00:29:40,280 --> 00:29:41,800 Speaker 2: a question for a lot of people. 573 00:29:42,000 --> 00:29:44,200 Speaker 5: Is you know, how is it that some of these 574 00:29:44,360 --> 00:29:46,200 Speaker 5: people can come forward and say the things that they 575 00:29:46,240 --> 00:29:49,720 Speaker 5: can without you know, tripping any wires and then also 576 00:29:49,760 --> 00:29:51,680 Speaker 5: at the same time know that there's also you know, 577 00:29:51,720 --> 00:29:55,040 Speaker 5: a second wire that they you know, are careful careful 578 00:29:55,160 --> 00:29:58,920 Speaker 5: not to trip, of course, and you know so part 579 00:29:58,920 --> 00:30:00,840 Speaker 5: of that, of course, is the fact that they have 580 00:30:00,960 --> 00:30:03,040 Speaker 5: gone through if they're writing a book or something, they've 581 00:30:03,080 --> 00:30:07,280 Speaker 5: gone through, you know, the Department of Publication review to 582 00:30:07,320 --> 00:30:09,120 Speaker 5: make sure that whatever it is that they're saying they're 583 00:30:09,120 --> 00:30:12,600 Speaker 5: writing about doesn't tripp any wires in terms of classification. 584 00:30:12,960 --> 00:30:14,959 Speaker 5: And so the thing about that, of course, is that 585 00:30:15,240 --> 00:30:17,440 Speaker 5: when they go through that process and they're allowed to 586 00:30:17,440 --> 00:30:20,360 Speaker 5: say certain things, that doesn't mean that Department of Defense, 587 00:30:20,440 --> 00:30:23,840 Speaker 5: for some other intelligence agency, the fact review goes through 588 00:30:24,160 --> 00:30:26,320 Speaker 5: is saying that what they're saying is true. What they're 589 00:30:26,320 --> 00:30:28,400 Speaker 5: saying is that you're allowed to say that that you're 590 00:30:28,400 --> 00:30:31,720 Speaker 5: not divulging anything that's inherently classified or something like that. 591 00:30:32,200 --> 00:30:34,320 Speaker 5: Of Course, you also have the issue here where you know, 592 00:30:34,400 --> 00:30:37,560 Speaker 5: if you want to say something and they deny you 593 00:30:37,640 --> 00:30:40,440 Speaker 5: the ability to say something, then that gives it, you know, 594 00:30:40,480 --> 00:30:43,440 Speaker 5: extra credibility. So I saw a UFO. I want to 595 00:30:43,440 --> 00:30:45,200 Speaker 5: be able to say that. Can I say that? And 596 00:30:45,240 --> 00:30:46,920 Speaker 5: then they say, yeah, you can say that. That doesn't 597 00:30:46,960 --> 00:30:48,960 Speaker 5: mean that they're saying that you saw one and. 598 00:30:49,240 --> 00:30:51,240 Speaker 2: They're not saying that. That doesn't mean that from somewhere 599 00:30:51,360 --> 00:30:52,680 Speaker 2: you said I saw a UFO. 600 00:30:52,840 --> 00:30:54,760 Speaker 5: That's right, But if they said you're not allowed to 601 00:30:54,800 --> 00:30:58,000 Speaker 5: say that, then that is you know. That's like when 602 00:30:58,000 --> 00:31:00,320 Speaker 5: you ask them a question they say, you know, I 603 00:31:00,360 --> 00:31:03,760 Speaker 5: can neither confirm nor deny. You know, so X, y 604 00:31:03,840 --> 00:31:06,960 Speaker 5: and Z. That's an admission in of itself, right, So 605 00:31:07,680 --> 00:31:09,960 Speaker 5: it's sort of the same type of thing there where 606 00:31:09,960 --> 00:31:12,640 Speaker 5: if they were to say you're not allowed to say that, 607 00:31:13,040 --> 00:31:16,120 Speaker 5: you know that communication in and of itself isn't classified. 608 00:31:16,480 --> 00:31:18,440 Speaker 5: So if they went public with, you know, saying I 609 00:31:18,520 --> 00:31:21,719 Speaker 5: asked to say something about such and such and they 610 00:31:21,720 --> 00:31:23,640 Speaker 5: said no, you're not allowed to do that, then that 611 00:31:23,840 --> 00:31:27,920 Speaker 5: is confirmation in of itself. So it's a very tricky situation. 612 00:31:27,840 --> 00:31:31,480 Speaker 2: It really is. And if there is this small legacy cabal, 613 00:31:31,600 --> 00:31:34,240 Speaker 2: let's say, let's say there's a small group you threw 614 00:31:34,280 --> 00:31:36,640 Speaker 2: out a number of one thousand people maybe, whatever it is, 615 00:31:36,960 --> 00:31:40,040 Speaker 2: how do these programs like Arrow or the previous program 616 00:31:40,160 --> 00:31:43,400 Speaker 2: Signed Grunge, Bluebook, any of these things get so manipulated. 617 00:31:43,440 --> 00:31:48,040 Speaker 2: It seems like these groups are outside of that legacy program, 618 00:31:48,200 --> 00:31:50,360 Speaker 2: and yet they seem to be sort of doing their 619 00:31:50,400 --> 00:31:53,920 Speaker 2: bidding and pushing the narrative the way that this group wants. 620 00:31:54,280 --> 00:31:56,120 Speaker 5: Well, I think when it comes to Erro. I mean 621 00:31:56,160 --> 00:31:59,240 Speaker 5: they are part and parcel of, you know, the cover 622 00:31:59,360 --> 00:32:02,640 Speaker 5: up itself, so they may not be The Arrow Office 623 00:32:02,920 --> 00:32:05,040 Speaker 5: was not envisioned by Congress to be part of the 624 00:32:05,120 --> 00:32:07,000 Speaker 5: Legacy Program. 625 00:32:06,320 --> 00:32:08,960 Speaker 2: But it was to us that it was exactly to 626 00:32:09,200 --> 00:32:10,840 Speaker 2: uncover that. Like they were supposed to be the O, 627 00:32:11,240 --> 00:32:11,960 Speaker 2: this was going to be the. 628 00:32:11,880 --> 00:32:16,240 Speaker 5: Transparent They also asked. They also asked if the Fox 629 00:32:16,280 --> 00:32:19,520 Speaker 5: to guard the Henhouse. There you go, the Department of 630 00:32:19,560 --> 00:32:21,760 Speaker 5: Defense to set up this office right and put in 631 00:32:21,800 --> 00:32:24,480 Speaker 5: its own people and do these things. You're essentially just 632 00:32:24,640 --> 00:32:27,920 Speaker 5: asking the people who do have access to information and 633 00:32:27,960 --> 00:32:31,320 Speaker 5: who do have access to the Legacy Program to install 634 00:32:31,440 --> 00:32:34,960 Speaker 5: their own people or influence the people that they're installing, 635 00:32:35,040 --> 00:32:38,080 Speaker 5: like doctor Sean ka Patrick for example, who was clearly 636 00:32:38,800 --> 00:32:42,040 Speaker 5: not interested in the least about you know, having any 637 00:32:42,120 --> 00:32:45,840 Speaker 5: sort of transparency with Congress or the American public. You know, 638 00:32:46,000 --> 00:32:48,240 Speaker 5: I don't know if most people know this, but we'll 639 00:32:48,240 --> 00:32:50,360 Speaker 5: go back to the UAPDA for just a moment. That 640 00:32:50,840 --> 00:32:53,720 Speaker 5: when the UAPDA was introduced, it was passed through the 641 00:32:53,760 --> 00:32:57,240 Speaker 5: Senate and added to the National Defense Authorization Act, Department 642 00:32:57,280 --> 00:33:00,920 Speaker 5: of Defense and AERO, you know, did a deadline sort 643 00:33:00,920 --> 00:33:03,400 Speaker 5: of of the legislation and basically striking out all the 644 00:33:03,440 --> 00:33:06,520 Speaker 5: things that they didn't want and adding their notes. And 645 00:33:06,640 --> 00:33:09,160 Speaker 5: you know, Sean Kirkpatrick did an interview talking about you 646 00:33:09,160 --> 00:33:11,040 Speaker 5: know that they did. They objected to it because this 647 00:33:11,200 --> 00:33:13,080 Speaker 5: was the job they were already doing with you the 648 00:33:13,560 --> 00:33:15,920 Speaker 5: UAP Records Review Board. They were already essentially doing that, 649 00:33:15,960 --> 00:33:18,200 Speaker 5: which was far school and in of itself, of course, 650 00:33:18,400 --> 00:33:19,720 Speaker 5: you know, saying that it was a waste of tax 651 00:33:19,720 --> 00:33:21,680 Speaker 5: payer money. But you know, they lobby Congress and they 652 00:33:21,720 --> 00:33:24,800 Speaker 5: readlined the entire amendment. But one of the things that 653 00:33:24,840 --> 00:33:27,320 Speaker 5: they wanted to keep in the legislation was them in 654 00:33:27,320 --> 00:33:30,800 Speaker 5: a domain. But they didn't want UAP Records Review Board 655 00:33:30,840 --> 00:33:33,560 Speaker 5: to get that information or you know, to use or 656 00:33:33,600 --> 00:33:36,240 Speaker 5: exercise the powerment domain. They wanted to kept in the 657 00:33:36,240 --> 00:33:39,040 Speaker 5: Office of Eerrow what Aero had said. You know, there 658 00:33:39,160 --> 00:33:42,200 Speaker 5: was of course no materials to be had because they 659 00:33:42,240 --> 00:33:44,680 Speaker 5: went to the Defense contract as a defense contractor said 660 00:33:45,040 --> 00:33:47,520 Speaker 5: doesn't exist, you know, case closed.

We're speaking with Kevin 695 00:35:57,800 --> 00:36:00,600 Speaker 2: Wright from Solve Advocacy. Kevin, what is it going to 696 00:36:00,680 --> 00:36:03,960 Speaker 2: take do you think to get some form of official 697 00:36:04,040 --> 00:36:05,320 Speaker 2: disclosure from the government. 698 00:36:05,600 --> 00:36:07,359 Speaker 5: Well, I mean that's a great question. I mean there's 699 00:36:07,400 --> 00:36:09,279 Speaker 5: a lot of theories on that. You know, there is 700 00:36:09,320 --> 00:36:12,080 Speaker 5: a course, the sort of the lawful and orderly way 701 00:36:12,160 --> 00:36:15,640 Speaker 5: which is advocated through by the UAP Disclosure Act. You know, 702 00:36:15,880 --> 00:36:20,120 Speaker 5: build a you know, a disclosure campaign or you know 703 00:36:20,160 --> 00:36:26,480 Speaker 5: the collection, analysis, compilation, and eventual disclosure of disinformation and 704 00:36:26,520 --> 00:36:29,719 Speaker 5: these materials biologics or whatever. It is that you know, 705 00:36:29,760 --> 00:36:32,200 Speaker 5: we do have possession of whether that's the government itself 706 00:36:32,320 --> 00:36:35,680 Speaker 5: or private defense contractors. There is a course other ways 707 00:36:35,680 --> 00:36:38,160 Speaker 5: that this could all come out, and that's more often 708 00:36:38,200 --> 00:36:41,520 Speaker 5: referred to as so called catastrophic disclosure, in which you know, 709 00:36:41,840 --> 00:36:45,440 Speaker 5: a say at China or Russia, somebody you know, beats 710 00:36:45,800 --> 00:36:48,000 Speaker 5: the United States government to the punch and comes out 711 00:36:48,040 --> 00:36:50,640 Speaker 5: and says, you know, we have discovered something. We've discovered 712 00:36:50,640 --> 00:36:54,359 Speaker 5: something that is a non human intelligence and they are 713 00:36:54,400 --> 00:36:57,919 Speaker 5: operating craft and in fact, we've retrieved this craft, we've 714 00:36:57,920 --> 00:37:01,280 Speaker 5: reversed engineered it, and now you know, we have mastered 715 00:37:01,320 --> 00:37:05,400 Speaker 5: this technology, which would overnight, of course, transfer you know, 716 00:37:05,520 --> 00:37:10,120 Speaker 5: geopolitical strength largely from the United States and gravitated towards 717 00:37:10,160 --> 00:37:14,000 Speaker 5: a Russia or China as you know, the new superpower 718 00:37:14,480 --> 00:37:16,719 Speaker 5: to be reckoned with. So you know, that's one way 719 00:37:17,160 --> 00:37:19,040 Speaker 5: it could happen. Of course, in other ways, you know, 720 00:37:19,200 --> 00:37:24,600 Speaker 5: somebody does come forward with one hundred percent verifiable information, 721 00:37:24,719 --> 00:37:29,120 Speaker 5: and that is something that's irrefutable that the government was going. 722 00:37:29,080 --> 00:37:31,280 Speaker 2: To have to be more than pictures, photos, videos today. 723 00:37:32,280 --> 00:37:36,279 Speaker 5: Something you know, something that's irrefutable, that ill pipe or 724 00:37:36,280 --> 00:37:39,480 Speaker 5: an arm. Yeah, yeah, but it is my firm belief 725 00:37:39,520 --> 00:37:41,160 Speaker 5: that this is going to happen. It's just you know, 726 00:37:41,200 --> 00:37:44,040 Speaker 5: how this happen is the question. But when it comes 727 00:37:44,120 --> 00:37:48,960 Speaker 5: to compelling our government to finally disclose information, I think 728 00:37:48,960 --> 00:37:51,040 Speaker 5: that goes back to our early discussion, which is the 729 00:37:51,080 --> 00:37:54,400 Speaker 5: fact that we need to educate the public more properly 730 00:37:54,640 --> 00:38:00,120 Speaker 5: to mobilize them into demanding transparency on this issue, thereby 731 00:38:00,200 --> 00:38:03,040 Speaker 5: forcing members of Congress to have to address it and 732 00:38:03,120 --> 00:38:05,840 Speaker 5: take it seriously. It finally passed legislation. 733 00:38:06,200 --> 00:38:09,040 Speaker 2: Well, what do you think would be the biggest fallout 734 00:38:09,320 --> 00:38:12,320 Speaker 2: if the US government did disclose tomorrow morning. 735 00:38:12,600 --> 00:38:14,320 Speaker 5: Well, I think that depends upon what it is that 736 00:38:14,440 --> 00:38:15,600 Speaker 5: is ultimately disclosed. 737 00:38:15,600 --> 00:38:18,080 Speaker 2: But by the fact that extraterrestrials have been here, that 738 00:38:18,160 --> 00:38:21,200 Speaker 2: from off world, non humans have been to Earth and 739 00:38:21,239 --> 00:38:23,360 Speaker 2: we've interact with them, what's the big fallout? 740 00:38:23,680 --> 00:38:25,480 Speaker 5: Well, I think that depends as well, because I think 741 00:38:25,520 --> 00:38:27,799 Speaker 5: there's a number of fallouts that happened. One of them is, 742 00:38:27,840 --> 00:38:32,160 Speaker 5: if you know, if there is an energy technology production distribution, 743 00:38:32,680 --> 00:38:35,360 Speaker 5: something along the lines of a zero point energy you know, 744 00:38:35,480 --> 00:38:39,640 Speaker 5: green energy something or rather, then you know, certainly creates 745 00:38:39,680 --> 00:38:44,240 Speaker 5: problems for you know, the oil producing countries like Saudi Arabia, 746 00:38:44,840 --> 00:38:48,000 Speaker 5: the Middle East, and it creates problems for you know, 747 00:38:48,080 --> 00:38:50,160 Speaker 5: our government in the fact that they've kept you know, 748 00:38:50,200 --> 00:38:55,920 Speaker 5: this information secret, relied on fossil fuels, included our environment, 749 00:38:56,000 --> 00:38:59,040 Speaker 5: while all along for the last sixty seventy eighty years 750 00:38:59,320 --> 00:39:01,239 Speaker 5: we could have had energy. I think that's you know, 751 00:39:01,280 --> 00:39:03,920 Speaker 5: a significant problem. I think, you know, some people will 752 00:39:03,960 --> 00:39:07,520 Speaker 5: affect in different ways. Some people who already have, you know, 753 00:39:07,560 --> 00:39:11,200 Speaker 5: a great distrust of our government will become even more distrustful. 754 00:39:11,600 --> 00:39:16,080 Speaker 5: Some will question, of course, religion, depending on what the 755 00:39:16,120 --> 00:39:19,279 Speaker 5: answer you know ultimately might be. But I think that 756 00:39:19,640 --> 00:39:22,640 Speaker 5: rather than focusing on what the fallout is in terms 757 00:39:22,640 --> 00:39:25,239 Speaker 5: of any possible negative consequences, I think we also have 758 00:39:25,280 --> 00:39:28,680 Speaker 5: to think about positive consequences when it comes to our government. 759 00:39:28,920 --> 00:39:31,560 Speaker 5: The greatest thing that it could do to rehabilitate itself 760 00:39:31,600 --> 00:39:33,359 Speaker 5: in the eyes of the public who have very low 761 00:39:33,360 --> 00:39:36,640 Speaker 5: approval ratings faith and trust and government is to finally 762 00:39:36,680 --> 00:39:39,560 Speaker 5: have a mea culpa and come forward and say, here's 763 00:39:39,600 --> 00:39:41,560 Speaker 5: the truth, this is what we're going to do to 764 00:39:41,600 --> 00:39:44,600 Speaker 5: rectify that and rebuild your trust in the institutions of 765 00:39:44,640 --> 00:39:48,160 Speaker 5: our government, in the media, and religion and everything else. 766 00:39:48,560 --> 00:39:50,960 Speaker 5: So that we can move forward as a better people. 767 00:39:51,239 --> 00:39:53,560 Speaker 2: You know, do you think it's possible that the truth 768 00:39:53,640 --> 00:39:56,520 Speaker 2: behind this phenomenon that this legacy group is aware of 769 00:39:56,880 --> 00:40:00,719 Speaker 2: may be way more complicated than most people really are 770 00:40:00,760 --> 00:40:04,400 Speaker 2: ready for, Like it goes way past nuts and bolts 771 00:40:04,480 --> 00:40:09,480 Speaker 2: craft and it's onto interdimensional beings or spiritual things or 772 00:40:09,520 --> 00:40:12,560 Speaker 2: something like that that might be best kept secret. 773 00:40:12,680 --> 00:40:15,239 Speaker 5: Or No, No, I don't think that's true. I mean 774 00:40:15,280 --> 00:40:17,359 Speaker 5: I do think it's I think it's true that it's 775 00:40:17,400 --> 00:40:21,840 Speaker 5: far more complicated than just an ET or ets coming 776 00:40:21,880 --> 00:40:24,840 Speaker 5: from somewhere else in the Solar system or galaxy universe 777 00:40:25,239 --> 00:40:27,160 Speaker 5: coming and visiting us, Because I think, you know, in 778 00:40:27,200 --> 00:40:29,560 Speaker 5: some ways, as as strange as it may sound, that 779 00:40:29,680 --> 00:40:33,000 Speaker 5: almost seems like the most unlikely explanation in a lot 780 00:40:33,040 --> 00:40:36,760 Speaker 5: of regards, because of how strange the overall phenomena seems 781 00:40:36,800 --> 00:40:40,680 Speaker 5: to be. The ET hypothesis in and of itself does 782 00:40:40,719 --> 00:40:44,200 Speaker 5: not explain or come to even close to explaining all 783 00:40:44,280 --> 00:40:47,000 Speaker 5: the various aspects of, you know, the discussion that we're 784 00:40:47,000 --> 00:40:50,319 Speaker 5: having about the phenomena itself. It's possible that there are 785 00:40:50,360 --> 00:40:53,080 Speaker 5: people that are just going to never believe the truth 786 00:40:53,120 --> 00:40:56,320 Speaker 5: no matter what, and there are people you are probably 787 00:40:56,360 --> 00:40:58,759 Speaker 5: going to argue about the veracity of the truth when 788 00:40:58,800 --> 00:41:02,080 Speaker 5: it finally comes out of pre as we're all very 789 00:41:02,160 --> 00:41:04,920 Speaker 5: you know, devisive, peaceable these days. You can't see them 790 00:41:04,960 --> 00:41:07,520 Speaker 5: to come to agreement on anything, even when evidence is 791 00:41:07,520 --> 00:41:09,840 Speaker 5: presented to us. Yeah, I think it depends upon what 792 00:41:09,880 --> 00:41:12,919 Speaker 5: the truth ultimately is. But I definitely think it's far 793 00:41:12,960 --> 00:41:17,400 Speaker 5: more complicated than just anyone's simple explanation, and it definitely 794 00:41:17,440 --> 00:41:22,400 Speaker 5: goes beyond just sort of nutsymbols, craft and biological entities. 795 00:41:22,760 --> 00:41:24,960 Speaker 2: I agree one hundred percent with that. And as much 796 00:41:25,000 --> 00:41:29,320 Speaker 2: as I really genuinely applaud these efforts from people like yourself, 797 00:41:29,640 --> 00:41:32,880 Speaker 2: from Danny Sheehan and the New Paradigm Institute and you 798 00:41:32,960 --> 00:41:35,680 Speaker 2: know the work of Steve Bassett and everyone pushing for 799 00:41:35,800 --> 00:41:38,960 Speaker 2: transparency in our right to know, but at the end 800 00:41:39,000 --> 00:41:42,200 Speaker 2: of the day, it just feels to me that we, 801 00:41:43,239 --> 00:41:45,520 Speaker 2: like some of these politicians, are on a need to 802 00:41:45,560 --> 00:41:48,759 Speaker 2: know basis and have zero need to know. From the 803 00:41:48,840 --> 00:41:52,960 Speaker 2: Legacy Program's viewpoint, if there is this small faction that 804 00:41:53,160 --> 00:41:56,279 Speaker 2: controls this information, I do not see an upside for 805 00:41:56,320 --> 00:42:00,759 Speaker 2: them disclosing it to anyone. I see nothing but potential downside. 806 00:42:01,040 --> 00:42:01,760 Speaker 2: What do you think. 807 00:42:02,160 --> 00:42:06,320 Speaker 5: Well, I think under present circumstances, that's at least partially true, 808 00:42:06,560 --> 00:42:11,200 Speaker 5: because they don't see an upside inasmuch as they fear 809 00:42:11,680 --> 00:42:14,279 Speaker 5: that if the truth would come out, regardless of what 810 00:42:14,320 --> 00:42:17,440 Speaker 5: the truth might be, they fear that, you know, they're 811 00:42:17,480 --> 00:42:22,719 Speaker 5: going to be held accountable, liable, criminally prosecutable, and that 812 00:42:22,840 --> 00:42:26,040 Speaker 5: sort of thing. So for them, for that perspective, it 813 00:42:26,120 --> 00:42:30,040 Speaker 5: certainly seems that there is no upside, you know, for 814 00:42:30,080 --> 00:42:33,080 Speaker 5: this to come out if they are held in that regard. 815 00:42:33,200 --> 00:42:35,560 Speaker 5: So that's definitely, definitely a true statement. 816 00:42:35,560 --> 00:42:37,879 Speaker 2: I think when you were talking earlier about all these 817 00:42:37,920 --> 00:42:41,320 Speaker 2: ways that the government or this cabal or the legacy program, 818 00:42:41,360 --> 00:42:44,480 Speaker 2: I guess I should say is the way they control 819 00:42:44,600 --> 00:42:48,480 Speaker 2: this narrative and they nudge things, and they classify things, 820 00:42:48,520 --> 00:42:55,160 Speaker 2: and they secrify things. That's not a word. They make 821 00:42:55,480 --> 00:42:58,920 Speaker 2: these patents secret. How do you know who's telling the 822 00:42:58,920 --> 00:43:03,080 Speaker 2: truth and that they're not part of a disinformation campaign? 823 00:43:03,160 --> 00:43:06,040 Speaker 2: Even somebody like as big as lou Elizondo, for example, 824 00:43:06,640 --> 00:43:09,080 Speaker 2: you know there's a chance that he's part of a 825 00:43:09,120 --> 00:43:11,760 Speaker 2: disinformation campaign. That's possible, right. 826 00:43:12,200 --> 00:43:14,160 Speaker 5: Well, I mean, I think once you start diving down 827 00:43:14,160 --> 00:43:17,920 Speaker 5: the rabbit holes of UFOs and UAP and non human intelligence. 828 00:43:18,320 --> 00:43:22,040 Speaker 5: You realize that just about anything is possible. While I 829 00:43:22,080 --> 00:43:24,440 Speaker 5: do not think that I was onto another and some 830 00:43:24,480 --> 00:43:27,439 Speaker 5: of these other people are engaged in disinformation, I don't 831 00:43:27,440 --> 00:43:30,520 Speaker 5: think that's you know, the case. But you asked, essentially, 832 00:43:30,760 --> 00:43:33,160 Speaker 5: how can you discern sort of the truth amongst you, 833 00:43:33,480 --> 00:43:37,000 Speaker 5: all of what is being said and alleged. And you know, 834 00:43:37,040 --> 00:43:40,279 Speaker 5: my personal take on it is that, you know, I 835 00:43:40,320 --> 00:43:42,080 Speaker 5: read a lot, I listened a lot, you know, I 836 00:43:42,160 --> 00:43:44,480 Speaker 5: observe a lot from what people are saying, what they're writing, 837 00:43:44,520 --> 00:43:47,319 Speaker 5: what they're doing, and I don't take any of it 838 00:43:47,360 --> 00:43:49,600 Speaker 5: to the bank. I sort of just file it away. 839 00:43:50,120 --> 00:43:53,360 Speaker 5: And then the next time somebody says something that references, 840 00:43:53,440 --> 00:43:55,560 Speaker 5: you know, something that somebody else has said, you know, 841 00:43:55,640 --> 00:43:58,520 Speaker 5: I cross reference it and say, okay, well that makes sense, 842 00:43:58,960 --> 00:44:01,200 Speaker 5: or well that sounds like garbage because that doesn't jive 843 00:44:01,280 --> 00:44:03,880 Speaker 5: with you know, what so and so said. So, you know, 844 00:44:03,920 --> 00:44:05,440 Speaker 5: I just kind of try to keep stock of it 845 00:44:05,480 --> 00:44:07,839 Speaker 5: all and just keep it filed away, and then you 846 00:44:07,880 --> 00:44:11,560 Speaker 5: sort of build up, you know, a library of information, 847 00:44:11,920 --> 00:44:13,960 Speaker 5: you know, in your head and in your own writing, 848 00:44:13,960 --> 00:44:16,440 Speaker 5: and these sorts of things, and that sort of evolves 849 00:44:16,440 --> 00:44:18,879 Speaker 5: over time and you start comparing notes and you start 850 00:44:18,920 --> 00:44:22,279 Speaker 5: to think, okay, this is what actually makes sense, you know, 851 00:44:22,320 --> 00:44:25,040 Speaker 5: regardless of what so and so just said on a podcast, 852 00:44:25,320 --> 00:44:27,600 Speaker 5: you know, especially somebody new on the scene that nobody's 853 00:44:27,600 --> 00:44:30,600 Speaker 5: ever heard of, and they're making you know, rather extraordinary 854 00:44:30,840 --> 00:44:34,280 Speaker 5: claims or allegations. You know, sometimes some of it does 855 00:44:35,280 --> 00:44:37,480 Speaker 5: line up with other things that people have written and 856 00:44:38,280 --> 00:44:41,520 Speaker 5: spoken about, and sometimes you know it doesn't, but you 857 00:44:41,560 --> 00:44:43,600 Speaker 5: still file all that stuff away because it might come 858 00:44:43,680 --> 00:44:45,839 Speaker 5: up again and you cross reference it and you you know, 859 00:44:45,960 --> 00:44:48,040 Speaker 5: check your notes and say, okay, you know what so 860 00:44:48,080 --> 00:44:51,120 Speaker 5: and so two years ago said something very similar, and 861 00:44:51,200 --> 00:44:53,719 Speaker 5: at that time I discounted it as total garbage. But 862 00:44:53,840 --> 00:44:56,360 Speaker 5: you know, now this person has come forward and added 863 00:44:56,480 --> 00:44:59,000 Speaker 5: you know, context to it, and so maybe now I 864 00:44:59,040 --> 00:45:01,320 Speaker 5: need to actually, you know, I'll go back and consider 865 00:45:01,840 --> 00:45:03,320 Speaker 5: what it is that's been said here. Again. 866 00:45:03,960 --> 00:45:07,719 Speaker 2: This is such a convoluted thing. It's there's just so 867 00:45:07,840 --> 00:45:10,880 Speaker 2: it's just so complex. If you go to contact in 868 00:45:10,920 --> 00:45:13,440 Speaker 2: the desert and there's three thousand people there and you 869 00:45:13,480 --> 00:45:16,120 Speaker 2: interview each one of them, they're all going to have 870 00:45:16,239 --> 00:45:18,800 Speaker 2: their line on what they believe, what they don't believe, 871 00:45:19,160 --> 00:45:22,279 Speaker 2: it's just so tangled, so it's hard to know what's 872 00:45:22,360 --> 00:45:25,640 Speaker 2: all really true. Absolutely fascinating man. 873 00:45:25,960 --> 00:45:28,880 Speaker 5: Absolutely, I greatly appreciate you having me on and you know, 874 00:45:29,000 --> 00:45:30,520 Speaker 5: happy to do so again in the future. 875 00:45:30,760 --> 00:45:33,960 Speaker 2: Awesome.
