1 00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:03,640 Speaker 1: And we have returned with a classic episode as we 2 00:00:03,720 --> 00:00:07,560 Speaker 1: take a little bit of time off this week, but 3 00:00:07,800 --> 00:00:10,760 Speaker 1: we didn't want to leave you without a dope beat 4 00:00:10,840 --> 00:00:14,560 Speaker 1: a step to UFO fans, this one's for you. Oh yeah, 5 00:00:15,520 --> 00:00:20,000 Speaker 1: where have you seen UFOs? Where have most people seen 6 00:00:20,120 --> 00:00:23,360 Speaker 1: the most UFOs? That's literally what we're going to talk 7 00:00:23,400 --> 00:00:27,880 Speaker 1: about today, and that is such an exciting concept. Is 8 00:00:27,880 --> 00:00:31,160 Speaker 1: it just Skinwalker Ranch? Is it just Area fifty one? 9 00:00:31,760 --> 00:00:36,920 Speaker 1: Where else? From UFOs to psychic powers and government conspiracies, 10 00:00:37,040 --> 00:00:40,880 Speaker 1: history is riddled with unexplained events. You can turn back 11 00:00:40,920 --> 00:00:56,760 Speaker 1: now or learn the stuff they don't want you to know. Hello, 12 00:00:56,800 --> 00:00:59,320 Speaker 1: my name is Matt Flashing lights Frederick, and this is 13 00:01:00,200 --> 00:01:05,360 Speaker 1: eight million Brown. That's bad, but I'm good now, I'm 14 00:01:05,360 --> 00:01:07,360 Speaker 1: gonna get it. I'm just I'm gonna I'm I'm I've 15 00:01:07,440 --> 00:01:09,080 Speaker 1: made my bed now I'm gonna lie in it. And 16 00:01:09,160 --> 00:01:11,760 Speaker 1: then Max Powers astronaut with a secret You are you 17 00:01:12,000 --> 00:01:14,000 Speaker 1: that makes this stuff they don't want you to know? 18 00:01:14,080 --> 00:01:15,840 Speaker 1: And do that part from the opening again where you 19 00:01:15,880 --> 00:01:19,800 Speaker 1: say the thing about the thing, from from something to something, 20 00:01:20,000 --> 00:01:23,479 Speaker 1: from UFOs to ghosts and government cover ups. You could 21 00:01:23,520 --> 00:01:26,560 Speaker 1: turn back now or learned the stuff they don't want 22 00:01:26,600 --> 00:01:29,680 Speaker 1: you to know which is our show that. I'm sorry. 23 00:01:29,680 --> 00:01:31,679 Speaker 1: I didn't mean to be redundant. I just thought, you know, 24 00:01:31,680 --> 00:01:33,800 Speaker 1: we haven't talked about aliens at a hot minute. We 25 00:01:33,959 --> 00:01:36,720 Speaker 1: have not. That is true. That is true, And long 26 00:01:36,720 --> 00:01:40,280 Speaker 1: time listeners from the video series know that we slightly 27 00:01:40,440 --> 00:01:43,880 Speaker 1: change the language of the opener over time because we 28 00:01:44,000 --> 00:01:51,200 Speaker 1: used to have um psychics and maybe UFOs UM. So 29 00:01:51,840 --> 00:01:56,920 Speaker 1: we haven't had any kind of coverage about UFOs in 30 00:01:56,960 --> 00:01:59,080 Speaker 1: a long time, and we wanted to come back and 31 00:01:59,240 --> 00:02:03,320 Speaker 1: explore that a little bit today before we hop on 32 00:02:03,360 --> 00:02:08,000 Speaker 1: our own very well identified flying object and head out 33 00:02:08,040 --> 00:02:11,760 Speaker 1: to meet many of you in New York. I'm really 34 00:02:11,760 --> 00:02:13,560 Speaker 1: looking forward to it. I know at least one of 35 00:02:13,600 --> 00:02:16,240 Speaker 1: you is going to be there. Yeah, I think so. 36 00:02:16,480 --> 00:02:17,960 Speaker 1: We're all on the same flight. So if one of 37 00:02:18,040 --> 00:02:23,960 Speaker 1: us doesn't make it, you guys, you guys, I know 38 00:02:24,040 --> 00:02:29,960 Speaker 1: you guys gonna be like the beginning of every Marine 39 00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:32,839 Speaker 1: Corps movie. Look to your left, look to your right. 40 00:02:33,480 --> 00:02:37,600 Speaker 1: One of you will make it. Oh my gosh, it's so, 41 00:02:38,960 --> 00:02:41,920 Speaker 1: what is the UFO. Let's just start there. What is 42 00:02:41,960 --> 00:02:44,440 Speaker 1: this thing? Well, this is a bit of a disclaimer 43 00:02:44,480 --> 00:02:46,200 Speaker 1: that we have to make at the top of these. 44 00:02:46,840 --> 00:02:50,760 Speaker 1: The UFO does not mean aliens full stop. It could 45 00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:55,239 Speaker 1: perhaps who knows, extra tresh reels. It just means it's unidentified, 46 00:02:55,720 --> 00:02:59,720 Speaker 1: and that means it could be anything. It's true. It 47 00:02:59,720 --> 00:03:05,080 Speaker 1: could a helicopter. It could be a particularly determined swan. Yeah, 48 00:03:05,120 --> 00:03:07,600 Speaker 1: that's just having light reflected off of it in a 49 00:03:07,680 --> 00:03:11,040 Speaker 1: strange way. It could be somebody base jumping, good old 50 00:03:11,080 --> 00:03:16,760 Speaker 1: swamp gas. Who could be swamp gas. One thing's for sure, 51 00:03:16,880 --> 00:03:19,080 Speaker 1: A will of the wisp, a will of the wisp? Yes, 52 00:03:19,240 --> 00:03:21,800 Speaker 1: are you going to be a will of the wisp? 53 00:03:21,919 --> 00:03:25,680 Speaker 1: Or won't of the wisp? That's good man, it's good 54 00:03:25,680 --> 00:03:28,560 Speaker 1: of your idea, but that I can see that as 55 00:03:28,600 --> 00:03:30,760 Speaker 1: like a like one of the posters with the kittens 56 00:03:30,800 --> 00:03:33,400 Speaker 1: hanging from the tree. You know, yeah, I think you 57 00:03:33,440 --> 00:03:37,920 Speaker 1: have a future and inspirational memorabilia ahead of you. Thank you, 58 00:03:38,320 --> 00:03:42,600 Speaker 1: thank you. Well. That's good because if my job were 59 00:03:42,640 --> 00:03:47,880 Speaker 1: to identify UFOs, I, like most other people who would 60 00:03:47,920 --> 00:03:52,000 Speaker 1: tipped this endeavor, would be at a loss. There's one 61 00:03:52,040 --> 00:03:55,600 Speaker 1: thing that a lot of people don't realize about UFO sightings. 62 00:03:55,640 --> 00:03:57,600 Speaker 1: We know that they happen every year around the globe. 63 00:03:58,080 --> 00:04:00,920 Speaker 1: But I did not know this if you guys knew 64 00:04:00,920 --> 00:04:05,240 Speaker 1: this already. Not only are UFO sightings at an all 65 00:04:05,400 --> 00:04:13,320 Speaker 1: time high, uh, but thereby far an American thing. They're 66 00:04:13,440 --> 00:04:16,320 Speaker 1: super They're super common in the US and Canada, and 67 00:04:16,360 --> 00:04:20,560 Speaker 1: more so in Canada. That's right. The findings are based 68 00:04:20,600 --> 00:04:25,400 Speaker 1: on data that was crunched by Sam Montfort, a doctoral 69 00:04:25,480 --> 00:04:30,120 Speaker 1: student in Human Factors and Applied Cognition. Was that is 70 00:04:30,120 --> 00:04:33,240 Speaker 1: that was that a fun acronym not really doesn't really 71 00:04:33,279 --> 00:04:37,200 Speaker 1: spell anything, no canny can't even can't even speak it. 72 00:04:37,520 --> 00:04:40,000 Speaker 1: And that was at George Mason University um SO. Monfort 73 00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:42,200 Speaker 1: wrote up his findings in a blog update that used 74 00:04:42,240 --> 00:04:45,359 Speaker 1: information from the National UFO Reporting Center, which does have 75 00:04:45,400 --> 00:04:48,920 Speaker 1: a fun acronym. It's New Fork UM and I feel 76 00:04:48,960 --> 00:04:51,360 Speaker 1: like that's like a town in Rhode Island, New Fork, 77 00:04:51,400 --> 00:04:53,599 Speaker 1: Rhode Island. Doesn't it sound like it would be better 78 00:04:53,760 --> 00:04:59,400 Speaker 1: for right? Exactly exactly UM and New Fork is an 79 00:04:59,480 --> 00:05:04,120 Speaker 1: organization and that documents UFO sightings. And now, according to 80 00:05:04,160 --> 00:05:09,080 Speaker 1: this report, these UFAs, the UFOs have been increasingly popping up, 81 00:05:09,520 --> 00:05:13,120 Speaker 1: with one hundred and four thousand, nine hundred forty seven 82 00:05:13,200 --> 00:05:16,960 Speaker 1: reported sightings just over the past one hundred plus years. 83 00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:20,320 Speaker 1: And there's an important thing here too, because what does 84 00:05:20,560 --> 00:05:23,559 Speaker 1: reported mean after a certain amount of time. It means 85 00:05:23,600 --> 00:05:26,240 Speaker 1: that it made it into print. You know, like a 86 00:05:26,320 --> 00:05:31,800 Speaker 1: hundred years ago. People wouldn't count a reported sighting as 87 00:05:32,160 --> 00:05:34,280 Speaker 1: somebody just talking about it. It will have to be 88 00:05:34,320 --> 00:05:38,120 Speaker 1: in some sort of official government document, etcetera. So there 89 00:05:38,120 --> 00:05:40,359 Speaker 1: are probably more than these, and then there's probably a 90 00:05:40,360 --> 00:05:42,800 Speaker 1: lot that are written down in people's diaries and so on. 91 00:05:43,400 --> 00:05:46,039 Speaker 1: And of course for the UFO enthusiasts, we know that 92 00:05:46,600 --> 00:05:51,880 Speaker 1: reported sightings date back into antiquity of just weird stuff 93 00:05:51,920 --> 00:05:56,520 Speaker 1: in the sky. This is focusing on a very specific period, 94 00:05:56,600 --> 00:05:59,279 Speaker 1: so they're not saying that those other you know, ancient 95 00:05:59,400 --> 00:06:02,719 Speaker 1: glimpses has never occurred. What about police reports? Do you 96 00:06:02,760 --> 00:06:07,000 Speaker 1: think UFO reports ever end up in that form? And 97 00:06:07,000 --> 00:06:10,120 Speaker 1: are those available to the public by by um, you know, 98 00:06:10,360 --> 00:06:14,080 Speaker 1: there are stars requests, There are some police reports. Usually 99 00:06:14,120 --> 00:06:16,520 Speaker 1: it's a person reporting to the police. Then the police 100 00:06:16,800 --> 00:06:20,360 Speaker 1: will like drop something down. Uh. And then especially if 101 00:06:20,920 --> 00:06:24,760 Speaker 1: an individual sees a UFO and reports to the police 102 00:06:25,040 --> 00:06:28,680 Speaker 1: and they also reported to Newfon or move On or 103 00:06:28,880 --> 00:06:31,440 Speaker 1: you know, whatever else whoever else they reported to, that 104 00:06:31,480 --> 00:06:36,160 Speaker 1: will be noted a lot of times in the documents there. Okay, 105 00:06:36,200 --> 00:06:39,440 Speaker 1: so I wonder if anybody has ever tried to use 106 00:06:39,880 --> 00:06:42,760 Speaker 1: a UFOs citing to get out of some kind of 107 00:06:42,800 --> 00:06:48,160 Speaker 1: altercation with the police. So as excuse me, uh Sarah, 108 00:06:48,920 --> 00:06:52,919 Speaker 1: we've had reports of a crack pipe being detected this 109 00:06:53,080 --> 00:06:59,039 Speaker 1: vicinity as somebody ever said they visited me and they 110 00:06:59,120 --> 00:07:02,320 Speaker 1: dropped this from the I'm sure someone has those crack 111 00:07:02,400 --> 00:07:07,680 Speaker 1: smoking et s man, right right. I still think it's 112 00:07:07,680 --> 00:07:11,560 Speaker 1: the CIA, though more so the extra terrestrials. The first 113 00:07:11,600 --> 00:07:19,400 Speaker 1: recorded incident in in this report that momfort does apparently 114 00:07:19,400 --> 00:07:22,280 Speaker 1: occurred in Portland all the way back in nineteen oh five, 115 00:07:22,360 --> 00:07:26,720 Speaker 1: and viewers reported seeing this buzzing sphere shaped UFO that 116 00:07:26,880 --> 00:07:33,600 Speaker 1: descended from the sky. But sightings have spiked dramatically over 117 00:07:33,640 --> 00:07:37,400 Speaker 1: the past three decades, with the reported number jumping from 118 00:07:37,440 --> 00:07:40,440 Speaker 1: like five thousand and nineteen eighty to forty five thousand 119 00:07:40,520 --> 00:07:44,480 Speaker 1: and two. What's going on in this report reinforces this 120 00:07:44,640 --> 00:07:49,760 Speaker 1: idea that UFO sightings are largely a United States thing. 121 00:07:50,360 --> 00:07:55,320 Speaker 1: The US collectively reports around sightings per ten million people, 122 00:07:55,720 --> 00:07:58,400 Speaker 1: which is three hundred times more than the global median. 123 00:07:59,000 --> 00:08:02,360 Speaker 1: That's pretty huge. Feels kind of like our same the 124 00:08:02,560 --> 00:08:05,160 Speaker 1: same proportion of our military spending to other parts of 125 00:08:05,200 --> 00:08:07,680 Speaker 1: the world. Um and more of these sightings are reported 126 00:08:07,720 --> 00:08:11,640 Speaker 1: in states in the west and northwest, with some of 127 00:08:11,680 --> 00:08:15,160 Speaker 1: the states in the Northeast they're like lagging just behind those. 128 00:08:15,640 --> 00:08:20,360 Speaker 1: So we're really looking at the edges the coasts. And 129 00:08:21,040 --> 00:08:26,640 Speaker 1: a new report came out very recently. Uh. These two authors, 130 00:08:26,720 --> 00:08:31,480 Speaker 1: Cheryl Costa and Linda Millark Costa released essentially a book 131 00:08:32,040 --> 00:08:35,960 Speaker 1: that details more modern UFO sightings in the United States. 132 00:08:36,400 --> 00:08:41,120 Speaker 1: These were aggregated from reports that were given to New 133 00:08:41,200 --> 00:08:45,360 Speaker 1: Fork and too. You may have heard Matt mentioned this 134 00:08:45,480 --> 00:08:48,240 Speaker 1: acronym before. What was it? Move on? Yeah, move on 135 00:08:48,360 --> 00:08:51,560 Speaker 1: the mutual UFO network, which sounds kind of made up, 136 00:08:51,600 --> 00:08:53,679 Speaker 1: but we promise you, ladies and gentlemen, it's a it's 137 00:08:53,679 --> 00:08:56,520 Speaker 1: a genuine thing. Yes, it is. Like you can call 138 00:08:56,640 --> 00:09:00,199 Speaker 1: these people and report something strange in the sky. That's 139 00:09:00,240 --> 00:09:03,439 Speaker 1: why their organization exists, and it goes into a document 140 00:09:03,559 --> 00:09:05,679 Speaker 1: and you can then search it later and you will 141 00:09:05,720 --> 00:09:07,880 Speaker 1: see that it's there and other people can see it. Yes, 142 00:09:07,960 --> 00:09:10,080 Speaker 1: So they collected this stuff just from two thousand one 143 00:09:10,160 --> 00:09:13,400 Speaker 1: to two thousand fifteen, and they came out with the 144 00:09:13,559 --> 00:09:19,160 Speaker 1: book named it's the UFO Sightings Desk Reference, not to 145 00:09:19,240 --> 00:09:22,920 Speaker 1: be confused with the Physician's Desk Reference colin United States 146 00:09:22,960 --> 00:09:27,280 Speaker 1: of America two thousand one. So they have over a 147 00:09:27,400 --> 00:09:31,959 Speaker 1: hundred thousand sightings that they've collected, and we have, uh, 148 00:09:32,320 --> 00:09:35,120 Speaker 1: we have the quote from them what they're going for. 149 00:09:36,880 --> 00:09:39,960 Speaker 1: Since nineteen sixty nine, the government has claimed no interest 150 00:09:40,040 --> 00:09:43,520 Speaker 1: in the subject, and the press and media either ignore 151 00:09:43,800 --> 00:09:48,400 Speaker 1: or ridicule any mention of UFOs. Yet citizens, scientists, and 152 00:09:48,600 --> 00:09:53,120 Speaker 1: non governmental organizations have continued to this day the research 153 00:09:53,240 --> 00:09:56,760 Speaker 1: into this important subject. This book seeks to make the 154 00:09:56,840 --> 00:10:01,280 Speaker 1: hardest data available accessible to the general public as well 155 00:10:01,400 --> 00:10:06,240 Speaker 1: as other UFO researchers. Hey, it's clearly written to be 156 00:10:06,600 --> 00:10:11,400 Speaker 1: like read rather than rather than performed. Those are those 157 00:10:11,440 --> 00:10:13,959 Speaker 1: are long sentences. But the argument there is just that 158 00:10:16,360 --> 00:10:19,920 Speaker 1: regardless of what a government is actually doing, they're pretty 159 00:10:20,000 --> 00:10:25,440 Speaker 1: dismissive towards looking into this, right, and maybe the days 160 00:10:25,520 --> 00:10:29,599 Speaker 1: of the men in black are gone and they're replaced 161 00:10:29,720 --> 00:10:34,680 Speaker 1: by you know, online shows. I'm always gonna say Facebook 162 00:10:34,760 --> 00:10:38,240 Speaker 1: news stories, but I think we're talking about the same thing. 163 00:10:39,760 --> 00:10:43,679 Speaker 1: So the book has narrative sections, you know, like an 164 00:10:43,720 --> 00:10:47,640 Speaker 1: anecdotal thing frequently asked questions. And then they have a 165 00:10:47,720 --> 00:10:53,160 Speaker 1: bunch of data, right, charts, tables, and maps, and they 166 00:10:53,320 --> 00:10:56,439 Speaker 1: found that this goes for all of the country. Are 167 00:10:56,520 --> 00:10:59,880 Speaker 1: all of the states in the US, including the disc 168 00:11:00,480 --> 00:11:05,320 Speaker 1: of Columbia, And this is uh, this is an interesting point. 169 00:11:05,720 --> 00:11:08,959 Speaker 1: And if you want to check this out you can 170 00:11:09,040 --> 00:11:12,679 Speaker 1: do so just like that. All you have to do 171 00:11:12,800 --> 00:11:16,040 Speaker 1: is go to Amazon. Yeah, it's only forty U S dollars. 172 00:11:17,200 --> 00:11:19,640 Speaker 1: I guess it must be a giant tome. I haven't 173 00:11:19,720 --> 00:11:23,200 Speaker 1: physically seen the thing. Who would be great if it really? 174 00:11:23,200 --> 00:11:25,040 Speaker 1: I mean it's a desk reference, right, so it must 175 00:11:25,040 --> 00:11:30,280 Speaker 1: be a fairly large tome. Forty dollars. For some critics 176 00:11:30,960 --> 00:11:34,240 Speaker 1: that that is fuel to a fire. And they might say, well, 177 00:11:35,040 --> 00:11:37,600 Speaker 1: of course you think this is the most important book 178 00:11:37,720 --> 00:11:40,560 Speaker 1: because you get forty dollars of pop every time someone 179 00:11:40,640 --> 00:11:44,120 Speaker 1: agrees with you. You know, yeah, but I mean you 180 00:11:44,240 --> 00:11:47,199 Speaker 1: got to think about it. Cheryl and Linda, they both 181 00:11:47,240 --> 00:11:49,719 Speaker 1: have families. They gotta put food on their families, you know, 182 00:11:50,160 --> 00:11:56,200 Speaker 1: apparently delicious filet mignons, Well they are. It was also 183 00:11:56,280 --> 00:11:58,439 Speaker 1: important to point out that you know, these people would 184 00:11:58,440 --> 00:12:02,679 Speaker 1: probably well, they're definitely not working like other scientists or 185 00:12:02,679 --> 00:12:07,000 Speaker 1: statisticians with some kind of institutional support. That's a good point, 186 00:12:07,080 --> 00:12:09,240 Speaker 1: and they gotta they gotta get there the most bang 187 00:12:09,320 --> 00:12:10,800 Speaker 1: for their buck. Yeah, where do you get a grant 188 00:12:11,040 --> 00:12:15,280 Speaker 1: for that kind of thing? Corelating UFO data? Um, I'm 189 00:12:15,840 --> 00:12:17,640 Speaker 1: you know, I was so close to making a huge 190 00:12:17,640 --> 00:12:19,240 Speaker 1: grant joke. But I think I'm gonna give him the 191 00:12:19,360 --> 00:12:24,400 Speaker 1: day off. A right, I think she's been through enough. Uh. 192 00:12:25,120 --> 00:12:28,960 Speaker 1: But what does this report contain? That's something that we're 193 00:12:29,160 --> 00:12:32,120 Speaker 1: exploring here because we found some things that might interest you, 194 00:12:32,440 --> 00:12:34,679 Speaker 1: and we'll tell you about them after a word from 195 00:12:34,720 --> 00:12:49,440 Speaker 1: our sponsor. One thing that we can glean from this report, 196 00:12:49,520 --> 00:12:54,240 Speaker 1: from this giant amount of information is that California they're 197 00:12:54,280 --> 00:12:57,720 Speaker 1: getting their UFO on over there. They're really seeing stuff 198 00:12:57,720 --> 00:13:04,520 Speaker 1: in the sky and free with me and in all parts, yes, 199 00:13:04,800 --> 00:13:10,600 Speaker 1: that is correct. California has had nearly sixteen thousand reported 200 00:13:10,679 --> 00:13:13,880 Speaker 1: sightings of UFO since two thousand one. That's that's also 201 00:13:13,920 --> 00:13:18,360 Speaker 1: according to the San Francisco Gate. And as we were 202 00:13:18,760 --> 00:13:23,120 Speaker 1: coming into the podcast to today, we're already hearing about 203 00:13:23,200 --> 00:13:26,320 Speaker 1: more recent ones. There was a report like in March 204 00:13:26,400 --> 00:13:29,240 Speaker 1: twenty one, just a few weeks ago, as we record this, 205 00:13:31,120 --> 00:13:36,479 Speaker 1: and you have to wonder why why this seems concentrated 206 00:13:37,000 --> 00:13:39,760 Speaker 1: in one area. I think it's because Tom DeLong lives 207 00:13:39,800 --> 00:13:44,920 Speaker 1: in California. Yes, Tom DeLong, Blink two, could you tell 208 00:13:45,520 --> 00:13:47,920 Speaker 1: tell everyone a little bit more about that? Well? I mean, 209 00:13:48,000 --> 00:13:51,280 Speaker 1: Blake two was one of the quintessential pop punk bands 210 00:13:51,320 --> 00:13:54,959 Speaker 1: of our generation and Tom left it all behind to 211 00:13:55,200 --> 00:14:00,280 Speaker 1: become a pre eminent UFO researcher. And he actually won 212 00:14:00,440 --> 00:14:05,120 Speaker 1: an award this year, uh for the work he's done. 213 00:14:05,360 --> 00:14:07,880 Speaker 1: And he posted a very cryptic video online where he 214 00:14:07,960 --> 00:14:10,160 Speaker 1: said that you know, he couldn't really talk about it, 215 00:14:10,240 --> 00:14:14,600 Speaker 1: but that he was getting some really interesting inside access 216 00:14:14,840 --> 00:14:19,960 Speaker 1: to some of the popular crash site, you know, documents 217 00:14:20,120 --> 00:14:22,920 Speaker 1: of very over the years, and had some people that 218 00:14:23,000 --> 00:14:25,160 Speaker 1: he was working with that were kind of helping him 219 00:14:25,240 --> 00:14:27,960 Speaker 1: and you know, on a science c level, it sounded 220 00:14:28,040 --> 00:14:30,080 Speaker 1: like but he couldn't really say much, but he said 221 00:14:30,400 --> 00:14:31,960 Speaker 1: stay tuned that it was going to be an interesting 222 00:14:32,080 --> 00:14:37,280 Speaker 1: year for his work into UFO research. Wow. Man, So, 223 00:14:37,480 --> 00:14:40,720 Speaker 1: so here's my theory. In two thousand one, when Take 224 00:14:40,760 --> 00:14:43,840 Speaker 1: Off Your Pants and Jacket was first released, it got 225 00:14:43,960 --> 00:14:48,120 Speaker 1: so much radio play on the terrestrial Earth here uh, 226 00:14:48,480 --> 00:14:51,400 Speaker 1: and all these radio waves went away. It was intercepted, 227 00:14:52,080 --> 00:14:53,600 Speaker 1: you know, from the Earth went away from the Earth. 228 00:14:53,840 --> 00:14:56,760 Speaker 1: It was intercepted by some craft that was checking out 229 00:14:56,920 --> 00:14:59,240 Speaker 1: the Earth, just being like, hey, what's going on over here. 230 00:14:59,680 --> 00:15:02,680 Speaker 1: They heard it, loved it, and they knew they had 231 00:15:02,720 --> 00:15:06,000 Speaker 1: to make contact with this guy, so they did, and 232 00:15:06,080 --> 00:15:08,040 Speaker 1: now he's in on the game and it's very catchy. 233 00:15:08,440 --> 00:15:10,040 Speaker 1: I sort of like that episode of Pete and Pete 234 00:15:10,280 --> 00:15:12,800 Speaker 1: with Johnny Unitis. You remember that. I don't I don't 235 00:15:12,800 --> 00:15:14,600 Speaker 1: want to spoil it, but it's basically there. That's a 236 00:15:14,720 --> 00:15:18,560 Speaker 1: very very heart heartfelt episode. But the idea is that uh, 237 00:15:18,640 --> 00:15:23,240 Speaker 1: an alien sees a football game and becomes enamored with 238 00:15:23,400 --> 00:15:27,360 Speaker 1: this player Johnny Unitis, but he sees it on the delay, 239 00:15:28,320 --> 00:15:30,880 Speaker 1: so like he doesn't he sees it very recently, when 240 00:15:30,880 --> 00:15:32,960 Speaker 1: it's actually a very very old game. Yeah. The example 241 00:15:33,000 --> 00:15:36,200 Speaker 1: I always think of is a an old older I 242 00:15:36,240 --> 00:15:39,920 Speaker 1: guess in eighties movie. I want to say, uh, maybe nineties. 243 00:15:40,840 --> 00:15:44,400 Speaker 1: It's called The Explorers, Goodwin and the Explorers. You know, 244 00:15:44,640 --> 00:15:50,600 Speaker 1: the aliens entire conversational tone is based off NICKD. Knight 245 00:15:50,960 --> 00:15:56,640 Speaker 1: essentially all black and white television, and that's that's an 246 00:15:56,720 --> 00:16:01,920 Speaker 1: interesting idea. How cool would that be? Tom DeLong, if 247 00:16:01,960 --> 00:16:04,960 Speaker 1: you're listening, let us know, also as blink Wood, if 248 00:16:05,000 --> 00:16:08,320 Speaker 1: you're getting back together. Well, I think they I think 249 00:16:08,360 --> 00:16:13,360 Speaker 1: they replaced Tom. Oh, that's cold. So I think he's 250 00:16:13,360 --> 00:16:15,640 Speaker 1: he's going full time with the with the UFO and 251 00:16:15,960 --> 00:16:19,000 Speaker 1: he's moved beyond it. Huh. I never even knew what 252 00:16:19,040 --> 00:16:21,120 Speaker 1: blink one a D two meant? What was the number? 253 00:16:21,240 --> 00:16:25,680 Speaker 1: Do you know? No? Does anyone know? Probably? All right, 254 00:16:26,440 --> 00:16:30,560 Speaker 1: we'll save that for another show. So why is California? 255 00:16:32,360 --> 00:16:36,520 Speaker 1: Why is California such a hot hot spot for this 256 00:16:36,760 --> 00:16:39,840 Speaker 1: such a hotbed? Uh? There there are a couple of reasons. 257 00:16:39,880 --> 00:16:43,520 Speaker 1: I guess if we wanted to check out, Um, if 258 00:16:43,560 --> 00:16:47,040 Speaker 1: we wanted to just look at the specs of the state, 259 00:16:49,280 --> 00:16:53,560 Speaker 1: it's huge. Yeah, it's really big anyway you slice it over. 260 00:16:53,760 --> 00:16:59,720 Speaker 1: Almost thirty four million people live in California alone. Let's 261 00:16:59,720 --> 00:17:04,720 Speaker 1: see the average age there is forty nine for men, 262 00:17:05,200 --> 00:17:07,919 Speaker 1: or just under fifty for men and just over fifty 263 00:17:08,040 --> 00:17:15,359 Speaker 1: for women. Uh. In terms of it's physical size, like 264 00:17:15,520 --> 00:17:18,920 Speaker 1: not just population, it's gigantic. You could cut it into 265 00:17:19,000 --> 00:17:22,080 Speaker 1: two states. Several people have argued that should be the case, 266 00:17:22,560 --> 00:17:26,600 Speaker 1: you know, and Northern California is very different from southern California, 267 00:17:27,119 --> 00:17:29,480 Speaker 1: and it's also right there on the coast. Much of 268 00:17:29,520 --> 00:17:33,280 Speaker 1: its border is the Pacific Ocean, and if anything happens 269 00:17:33,480 --> 00:17:36,360 Speaker 1: far out on the sea, or at least close enough 270 00:17:36,400 --> 00:17:39,679 Speaker 1: to where you can visibly make something out in an altitude, 271 00:17:40,359 --> 00:17:42,920 Speaker 1: you know, any kind of lights out there are gonna 272 00:17:42,960 --> 00:17:46,160 Speaker 1: do weird things with the way the atmosphere changes light 273 00:17:46,280 --> 00:17:48,680 Speaker 1: as it gets to your eye. I mean not to 274 00:17:48,760 --> 00:17:51,240 Speaker 1: mention like if you have like a clover Field situation 275 00:17:51,400 --> 00:17:54,359 Speaker 1: where you know, the the alien drops out of the 276 00:17:54,400 --> 00:17:58,000 Speaker 1: sky and some sort of craft that can then you know, 277 00:17:58,080 --> 00:18:01,960 Speaker 1: be submerged submergeable, that'd be a thing that would be 278 00:18:02,000 --> 00:18:04,159 Speaker 1: a good way to to pop into the scene, you know, 279 00:18:04,240 --> 00:18:07,639 Speaker 1: without making a big, a big to do you know, 280 00:18:07,920 --> 00:18:09,560 Speaker 1: go do it way out and see or if you're 281 00:18:09,600 --> 00:18:12,240 Speaker 1: like a Godzilla, you know, you come up from underneath. 282 00:18:12,440 --> 00:18:15,400 Speaker 1: It's very no, it's very true. And unidentified submergent objects 283 00:18:15,440 --> 00:18:17,960 Speaker 1: are a thing. We've talked about that before, and it 284 00:18:18,160 --> 00:18:21,119 Speaker 1: does make logical sense that if you're some kind of 285 00:18:21,359 --> 00:18:25,040 Speaker 1: aircraft that could that can go underwater like that and 286 00:18:25,119 --> 00:18:28,359 Speaker 1: travel there and also travel in air, which seems like 287 00:18:28,440 --> 00:18:29,800 Speaker 1: it might be hard, but hey, if you can get 288 00:18:29,800 --> 00:18:32,040 Speaker 1: to Earth, you can probably do it, and or uh well, 289 00:18:32,400 --> 00:18:34,520 Speaker 1: or build something that can do it. Because of a 290 00:18:34,640 --> 00:18:39,560 Speaker 1: submersible aircraft is not an impossible idea. It sounds like 291 00:18:39,680 --> 00:18:42,560 Speaker 1: it would be real pain to engineer it. I do 292 00:18:42,680 --> 00:18:44,960 Speaker 1: want to point out another thing, a fun fact. How 293 00:18:45,080 --> 00:18:51,440 Speaker 1: much of a sitcom set up is this? Within California, 294 00:18:51,520 --> 00:18:58,160 Speaker 1: there's a disproportionate amount of sightings from one place by far. Really, yes, 295 00:18:58,520 --> 00:19:00,720 Speaker 1: throughout the whole state. There's one city that has like 296 00:19:00,840 --> 00:19:04,680 Speaker 1: the majority of these reports. What is it? Do you 297 00:19:04,800 --> 00:19:10,560 Speaker 1: care to guess? Kind of it's easy, it's easy. It's 298 00:19:10,640 --> 00:19:15,400 Speaker 1: easy to guess, like Hollywood. Yeah, it's Los Angeles, Okay, 299 00:19:21,560 --> 00:19:25,119 Speaker 1: But so Los Angeles County outranks any other place in 300 00:19:25,280 --> 00:19:31,200 Speaker 1: California and on its own more than forty states, with 301 00:19:31,520 --> 00:19:38,679 Speaker 1: three thousand, two hundred sidings reported. L A is crazy. Also, 302 00:19:38,880 --> 00:19:43,800 Speaker 1: they're just hopeful, you know, like maybe maybe right hope 303 00:19:43,840 --> 00:19:47,240 Speaker 1: springs eternal. But there's another thing here that could also 304 00:19:47,480 --> 00:19:50,960 Speaker 1: lend to this propensity of reports, because we're not saying 305 00:19:51,040 --> 00:19:53,439 Speaker 1: people are making it up. We're saying that people are 306 00:19:53,520 --> 00:20:00,640 Speaker 1: just reporting more stuff. California also has a huge number 307 00:20:00,680 --> 00:20:05,040 Speaker 1: of military bases. That's right. There are more than fifty 308 00:20:05,359 --> 00:20:08,800 Speaker 1: known military bases inside the state of California, not to 309 00:20:08,880 --> 00:20:12,520 Speaker 1: account for god knows how many secret ones there might be, 310 00:20:12,680 --> 00:20:15,080 Speaker 1: you know, for national security. And we also have to 311 00:20:15,080 --> 00:20:18,159 Speaker 1: remember the California is immediately adjacent to Nevada and Arizona, 312 00:20:18,480 --> 00:20:22,399 Speaker 1: which have plenty of military facilities themselves, in addition to 313 00:20:22,800 --> 00:20:28,000 Speaker 1: test sites like the Nevada National Security Site um or 314 00:20:28,280 --> 00:20:31,560 Speaker 1: what also SAD a test site, and that spans almost 315 00:20:32,400 --> 00:20:35,320 Speaker 1: sixty square miles and is roughly sixty five miles northwest 316 00:20:35,720 --> 00:20:39,280 Speaker 1: of Las Vegas. It was established in nineteen fifty one 317 00:20:39,320 --> 00:20:42,480 Speaker 1: to test nuclear devices and one of the most recent 318 00:20:42,560 --> 00:20:46,720 Speaker 1: tests occurred on December seventh, which was an underground explosion 319 00:20:46,760 --> 00:20:49,600 Speaker 1: meant to learn about the properties of plutonium. And that 320 00:20:49,760 --> 00:20:51,920 Speaker 1: just means that there's a you know, a huge swath 321 00:20:52,000 --> 00:20:56,399 Speaker 1: of land out there where you could ostensibly test whatever 322 00:20:56,480 --> 00:20:59,320 Speaker 1: you wanted, although it's pretty much tainted at this point 323 00:20:59,440 --> 00:21:02,680 Speaker 1: with dation, right, and there are so many other things 324 00:21:02,840 --> 00:21:06,399 Speaker 1: that are in that vicinity or that region, right, we 325 00:21:06,520 --> 00:21:11,359 Speaker 1: can't forget that the federal government owns vast swaths of 326 00:21:11,520 --> 00:21:15,600 Speaker 1: lands in states. A budding California, and within California itself, 327 00:21:16,119 --> 00:21:19,440 Speaker 1: out in those deserts where there's nobody to see what's 328 00:21:19,480 --> 00:21:22,720 Speaker 1: going on, where the world either ended earlier God got 329 00:21:22,800 --> 00:21:27,119 Speaker 1: into abstract art. Yeah, that's right. If a cactus falls 330 00:21:27,160 --> 00:21:31,600 Speaker 1: in the desert, can anybody hear you scream? We mix 331 00:21:31,800 --> 00:21:35,040 Speaker 1: my metaphorn. Never. I think it worked, and we will 332 00:21:35,119 --> 00:21:38,560 Speaker 1: answer that question definitively after a word from our sponsor, 333 00:21:48,520 --> 00:21:56,680 Speaker 1: and we're back to to theush. The answer is maybe maybe, 334 00:21:56,960 --> 00:21:59,639 Speaker 1: maybe we're back just to the know. Maybe they like 335 00:22:00,000 --> 00:22:02,600 Speaker 1: and hear its scream. Oh no, no, it can hear 336 00:22:02,680 --> 00:22:06,639 Speaker 1: you scream? Wo I was combining. If a tree falls 337 00:22:06,680 --> 00:22:09,080 Speaker 1: in the forest, does it make a sound within space? 338 00:22:09,520 --> 00:22:12,280 Speaker 1: No one can hear you scream? What's that? Other one? 339 00:22:12,400 --> 00:22:14,240 Speaker 1: If a tree falls in the forest and it hits 340 00:22:14,280 --> 00:22:19,359 Speaker 1: a mime, does anyone care? People don't like mimes as 341 00:22:19,400 --> 00:22:23,159 Speaker 1: a rule. I kind of you out there. I like it. 342 00:22:23,359 --> 00:22:24,920 Speaker 1: I like I like the whole things still. I like 343 00:22:24,960 --> 00:22:27,440 Speaker 1: the part where they're in the box. Yeah, a knife 344 00:22:27,480 --> 00:22:30,560 Speaker 1: in the hand is worth two in the drawer. Speaking 345 00:22:30,640 --> 00:22:34,880 Speaker 1: of fantastic segues, we should also look at the report itself, 346 00:22:34,960 --> 00:22:38,240 Speaker 1: because it aggregated a lot of data, but it aggregated 347 00:22:38,320 --> 00:22:42,240 Speaker 1: it from places that you know clearly have some sort 348 00:22:42,280 --> 00:22:46,240 Speaker 1: of agenda. Yeah. I mean, even if it's just gathering 349 00:22:46,320 --> 00:22:50,880 Speaker 1: as much information as possible, perhaps there's not the level 350 00:22:50,920 --> 00:22:55,040 Speaker 1: of scrutiny placed on the reports that you might expect. 351 00:22:55,600 --> 00:22:58,040 Speaker 1: You know, you just you take the information in, you 352 00:22:58,160 --> 00:23:01,400 Speaker 1: write it down objectively, whatever you're old, and you put 353 00:23:01,480 --> 00:23:03,520 Speaker 1: it away in a document. I mean, it's certainly not 354 00:23:03,640 --> 00:23:06,600 Speaker 1: like peer reviewed. Well it's peer reviewed, and there's not 355 00:23:06,800 --> 00:23:10,399 Speaker 1: someone you know on the phone saying well, okay, so 356 00:23:10,600 --> 00:23:13,600 Speaker 1: what you saw, you know, going over what the person saw, 357 00:23:13,760 --> 00:23:16,159 Speaker 1: or like really going over what flights were in the 358 00:23:16,240 --> 00:23:18,840 Speaker 1: vicinity or that kind of Ye, it's analyzed later, it's 359 00:23:18,880 --> 00:23:22,520 Speaker 1: just reported. So we have some examples of like the 360 00:23:22,640 --> 00:23:27,000 Speaker 1: format this takes correct. Yes, this is going to come 361 00:23:27,040 --> 00:23:31,040 Speaker 1: directly from the National UFO Reporting Center. These are samples Newport, 362 00:23:31,840 --> 00:23:35,000 Speaker 1: New Fork. These are sightings that occurred in California from 363 00:23:35,440 --> 00:23:39,240 Speaker 1: March of this year, so just you know, several days ago, 364 00:23:40,160 --> 00:23:45,639 Speaker 1: uh plus thirty and let's let's go into this. These 365 00:23:45,680 --> 00:23:48,840 Speaker 1: are reported as city shape, duration and then a quick 366 00:23:49,200 --> 00:23:53,280 Speaker 1: short summary physical shape of the object, whatever the thing 367 00:23:53,400 --> 00:23:55,800 Speaker 1: is that you saw. So the first one comes from 368 00:23:56,000 --> 00:23:59,000 Speaker 1: Mira mar California. It was in some kind of formation 369 00:23:59,080 --> 00:24:02,040 Speaker 1: and it lasted five minutes and what was seen was 370 00:24:02,359 --> 00:24:06,040 Speaker 1: rapid blinking light which appeared to grow in size. First 371 00:24:06,119 --> 00:24:09,000 Speaker 1: just one light was visible, and then this formation itself 372 00:24:09,080 --> 00:24:12,800 Speaker 1: became visible. And this was an anonymous report. That is 373 00:24:12,960 --> 00:24:15,520 Speaker 1: one of those things that you know, you're driving, you're 374 00:24:15,520 --> 00:24:17,560 Speaker 1: hanging out on the porch, you see it and you go, huh, 375 00:24:17,880 --> 00:24:22,399 Speaker 1: that's interesting. I wonder with that, WHOA why are all 376 00:24:22,440 --> 00:24:25,800 Speaker 1: those lights there? Can I can totally understand that kind 377 00:24:25,840 --> 00:24:27,520 Speaker 1: of thing I would make. I would have made that one. 378 00:24:27,960 --> 00:24:30,439 Speaker 1: Here's a few more. We've got one and then nives 379 00:24:30,760 --> 00:24:34,000 Speaker 1: um these shape is unknown, which what does that mean? 380 00:24:34,160 --> 00:24:35,919 Speaker 1: What does that mean? It's just like a new shape, 381 00:24:36,080 --> 00:24:41,359 Speaker 1: like I'm not even sure. Maybe perhaps a change shape, 382 00:24:41,840 --> 00:24:45,840 Speaker 1: who knows. Um. And the duration was two minutes and 383 00:24:45,920 --> 00:24:50,360 Speaker 1: the summary was fast moving silent objects in formation. UM. 384 00:24:51,240 --> 00:24:53,119 Speaker 1: And that was an anonymous report. Then we have one 385 00:24:53,160 --> 00:24:57,879 Speaker 1: in Palm Springs. Uh. This is good, a fancy ufo. Uh. 386 00:24:58,080 --> 00:25:01,000 Speaker 1: The shape was a form san, so I'm assuming that 387 00:25:01,040 --> 00:25:06,280 Speaker 1: means it was a group some kind of formation, right, um. 388 00:25:06,720 --> 00:25:11,240 Speaker 1: And a thirty second sighting. And then in double parentheses 389 00:25:11,359 --> 00:25:14,480 Speaker 1: and all caps with two question marks. It says hoax. Yeah, 390 00:25:14,520 --> 00:25:16,600 Speaker 1: I think this is a note from whoever recorded it. 391 00:25:16,800 --> 00:25:20,119 Speaker 1: And then the word Mars written in the sky by 392 00:25:20,280 --> 00:25:24,920 Speaker 1: lights and that is also an anonymous report. Yeah, that's weird. 393 00:25:25,119 --> 00:25:28,159 Speaker 1: I don't know. Some aliens come down and light tagging 394 00:25:28,200 --> 00:25:31,639 Speaker 1: the clouds. It's a little on the nose. So so 395 00:25:31,760 --> 00:25:34,720 Speaker 1: you can see range there already between what you're going 396 00:25:34,760 --> 00:25:37,520 Speaker 1: to receive with these kinds of sightings. Would you say 397 00:25:37,520 --> 00:25:40,639 Speaker 1: the range is like from absurd to ridiculous. No, No, 398 00:25:40,760 --> 00:25:45,600 Speaker 1: it's absurd to puzzling. I think, right, um, something you 399 00:25:45,720 --> 00:25:48,080 Speaker 1: just don't understand, Like there's one in San Diego. I 400 00:25:48,119 --> 00:25:51,040 Speaker 1: could just kill a man. So yeah, there's one in 401 00:25:51,119 --> 00:25:54,639 Speaker 1: San Diego that was formed in a circle, lasted two 402 00:25:54,680 --> 00:25:57,760 Speaker 1: minutes and we're just looking at some orange spears that 403 00:25:58,040 --> 00:26:02,000 Speaker 1: disappear and reappear in the sky somewhere. Yes, Typically the 404 00:26:02,200 --> 00:26:08,200 Speaker 1: more objective or reliable reports regarding anomalous material in the 405 00:26:08,359 --> 00:26:14,240 Speaker 1: sky will not make a guest toward motive or agency 406 00:26:14,480 --> 00:26:17,560 Speaker 1: like this one in Modesto, California. It was a circle 407 00:26:17,920 --> 00:26:21,159 Speaker 1: and for duration of six minutes, people witnessed in the 408 00:26:21,280 --> 00:26:25,280 Speaker 1: sky three red lights. They thought, oh, probably the military 409 00:26:25,400 --> 00:26:28,560 Speaker 1: doing exercises. But they lined up and then one flew 410 00:26:28,640 --> 00:26:33,600 Speaker 1: off the top. The one on top flew heca fast. Yeah, 411 00:26:34,400 --> 00:26:37,440 Speaker 1: I guess they say Hella in California, right. But what 412 00:26:37,920 --> 00:26:41,040 Speaker 1: we see here, what we see here is that as 413 00:26:41,200 --> 00:26:43,720 Speaker 1: as we said, there is a there is a range. 414 00:26:43,880 --> 00:26:46,080 Speaker 1: And it leaves us with a lot of questions, why 415 00:26:46,200 --> 00:26:51,440 Speaker 1: is this an American phenomena? Predominantly, why is it localized 416 00:26:51,520 --> 00:26:57,480 Speaker 1: to certain states or regions, And perhaps most importantly, what 417 00:26:58,880 --> 00:27:01,720 Speaker 1: what military craft? At least some of this was gonna 418 00:27:01,800 --> 00:27:05,520 Speaker 1: be mistaken top secret military craft. We know that it 419 00:27:05,600 --> 00:27:08,560 Speaker 1: happened with stealth fighters in the past. We know that 420 00:27:08,640 --> 00:27:13,000 Speaker 1: it happened with jets as well as with surveillance things 421 00:27:13,160 --> 00:27:16,320 Speaker 1: at a high altitude aircraft that were being tested right 422 00:27:16,480 --> 00:27:19,720 Speaker 1: like right now, uh, the P seven ninety one. A 423 00:27:19,800 --> 00:27:23,399 Speaker 1: lot of people who lament the long gone days of 424 00:27:23,560 --> 00:27:28,320 Speaker 1: airships and Zeppelin's, well they're back. The US has several 425 00:27:28,440 --> 00:27:31,080 Speaker 1: creepy ones that are at a very very high altitude 426 00:27:31,680 --> 00:27:35,680 Speaker 1: watching for some reason. You know, who knows what they're watching. 427 00:27:35,760 --> 00:27:38,040 Speaker 1: Maybe they're watching us. I think Matt made a good 428 00:27:38,040 --> 00:27:41,080 Speaker 1: point earlier. When we get into this next point, which is, uh, 429 00:27:41,280 --> 00:27:43,880 Speaker 1: the rise of drone technology. So like, you know, there's 430 00:27:43,880 --> 00:27:47,680 Speaker 1: all these consumer or prosumer drones, camera drones, different things 431 00:27:47,720 --> 00:27:51,200 Speaker 1: like that. They can fly pretty high and pretty far, 432 00:27:51,800 --> 00:27:56,040 Speaker 1: and this idea of reflections over the ocean, or you know, 433 00:27:56,200 --> 00:27:58,320 Speaker 1: some of them have lights mounted on them. You know, 434 00:27:58,720 --> 00:28:01,080 Speaker 1: if you if you saw the Super Bowl halftime show, 435 00:28:01,119 --> 00:28:03,960 Speaker 1: for example, there was a whole section in it where 436 00:28:04,000 --> 00:28:06,800 Speaker 1: it was just this massive array of drones with like 437 00:28:07,040 --> 00:28:09,800 Speaker 1: led lights on them that can be controlled. And you 438 00:28:09,880 --> 00:28:12,040 Speaker 1: know California is a ground zero for that kind of 439 00:28:12,119 --> 00:28:15,200 Speaker 1: tech party. Well, I'm just saying, like, if something cool 440 00:28:15,280 --> 00:28:18,680 Speaker 1: like that comes out, you know, they're innovating, they're innovating it. 441 00:28:18,880 --> 00:28:21,280 Speaker 1: So you know, I wouldn't be surprised if that could 442 00:28:21,280 --> 00:28:24,560 Speaker 1: account for some of these reports, if there has been 443 00:28:24,640 --> 00:28:27,000 Speaker 1: such a massive uptick. I really like this idea of 444 00:28:27,680 --> 00:28:30,200 Speaker 1: of drone technology having something to do with that. Even 445 00:28:30,240 --> 00:28:35,800 Speaker 1: on the mid level professional or amateur drone operator, you 446 00:28:35,960 --> 00:28:38,440 Speaker 1: can make some weird things happen in the sky for 447 00:28:38,520 --> 00:28:40,520 Speaker 1: people who don't know what they're looking at. It's pretty 448 00:28:40,520 --> 00:28:42,720 Speaker 1: affordable as well. Yeah, right now, if you have a 449 00:28:42,760 --> 00:28:47,280 Speaker 1: spare a thousand bucks, somebody does uh, we we we don't. 450 00:28:47,760 --> 00:28:49,280 Speaker 1: But you can get your hands on a drone with 451 00:28:49,360 --> 00:28:53,000 Speaker 1: an operating distance of seven thousand meters. Yeah, Like you 452 00:28:53,080 --> 00:28:55,360 Speaker 1: can buy those at Barnes and Noble, like I mean 453 00:28:55,440 --> 00:28:58,560 Speaker 1: they literally have them at CVS. Yeah, and you just 454 00:28:58,640 --> 00:29:00,000 Speaker 1: hop on Amazon and it will show up at your 455 00:29:00,080 --> 00:29:04,120 Speaker 1: door even And in theory, with an operating distance of 456 00:29:04,280 --> 00:29:07,200 Speaker 1: that like that far seven thousand meters in theory means 457 00:29:07,240 --> 00:29:10,160 Speaker 1: you can reach a max altitude of twenty three thousand 458 00:29:10,200 --> 00:29:13,200 Speaker 1: feet above the sea level. And you know, if you're 459 00:29:13,240 --> 00:29:15,880 Speaker 1: in California and you're pretty close to the sea level 460 00:29:15,920 --> 00:29:19,640 Speaker 1: in certain areas over there by the coast um or 461 00:29:19,720 --> 00:29:23,040 Speaker 1: in other areas of California, that's really high because you 462 00:29:23,120 --> 00:29:26,440 Speaker 1: have to think that the cruising altitude for a commercial 463 00:29:26,480 --> 00:29:29,640 Speaker 1: airliner is going to be around thirty six thousand feet. 464 00:29:30,040 --> 00:29:32,760 Speaker 1: So how many drones are out there? There are lots 465 00:29:32,800 --> 00:29:36,320 Speaker 1: and lots of drones. Just to look back at the 466 00:29:36,360 --> 00:29:40,480 Speaker 1: holiday season of almost a million consumer drones were sold 467 00:29:40,600 --> 00:29:43,160 Speaker 1: inside the US And that's just the holiday season for 468 00:29:43,280 --> 00:29:46,200 Speaker 1: one year. That's just one year, and you know it's 469 00:29:46,360 --> 00:29:49,480 Speaker 1: a year and a half ago. But then in December 470 00:29:49,520 --> 00:29:53,120 Speaker 1: of the f a A started requiring all new owners 471 00:29:53,160 --> 00:29:57,160 Speaker 1: of drones that are between a certain weight, so like 472 00:29:57,280 --> 00:29:59,960 Speaker 1: point five five pounds to fifty five pounds. There were 473 00:30:00,480 --> 00:30:03,920 Speaker 1: requiring these owners to register their drones just so that 474 00:30:04,000 --> 00:30:07,200 Speaker 1: they would know, Hey, here's the general vicinity where these 475 00:30:07,240 --> 00:30:10,920 Speaker 1: are gonna be located and where they might be flying. However, 476 00:30:11,440 --> 00:30:15,520 Speaker 1: in early February of last year, only three five thousand 477 00:30:15,600 --> 00:30:18,280 Speaker 1: of these drones had been registered, and that's not including 478 00:30:18,320 --> 00:30:20,120 Speaker 1: all the other drones that have been purchased. Are you 479 00:30:20,240 --> 00:30:24,320 Speaker 1: saying there are rogue drones out there, Matt, unregistered drones. 480 00:30:24,480 --> 00:30:28,080 Speaker 1: I'm saying we are littered with rogue drone dirty drones, 481 00:30:28,160 --> 00:30:30,680 Speaker 1: Like do they shave the whatever the equivalent of the 482 00:30:30,760 --> 00:30:34,080 Speaker 1: then is off of them? Possibly? Dude, I want to 483 00:30:34,160 --> 00:30:36,920 Speaker 1: burner drone. Well, do you think it's gonna change where 484 00:30:37,120 --> 00:30:39,640 Speaker 1: getting a drone is going to become more prohibitive, like 485 00:30:39,720 --> 00:30:42,880 Speaker 1: you after like having to register like immediately? Certain Yeah, 486 00:30:43,000 --> 00:30:45,840 Speaker 1: I think certainly that what they're sorting out now would 487 00:30:45,880 --> 00:30:49,800 Speaker 1: be a federal level law. Uh. Some ladies and gentlemen 488 00:30:49,800 --> 00:30:53,040 Speaker 1: in the audience, please let us know what your experiences 489 00:30:53,400 --> 00:30:55,360 Speaker 1: with having a drone. But I think that's a very 490 00:30:55,440 --> 00:30:59,000 Speaker 1: good argument for the rise of sightings. Let's remember, not 491 00:30:59,200 --> 00:31:01,719 Speaker 1: only are parts of California very very crowded, but they are, 492 00:31:01,840 --> 00:31:05,160 Speaker 1: as Neal said, full of very tech savvy people, people 493 00:31:05,280 --> 00:31:09,120 Speaker 1: that the markets often call early adopters, you know. And 494 00:31:09,280 --> 00:31:12,360 Speaker 1: and something that's just close to this but not quite 495 00:31:12,840 --> 00:31:16,720 Speaker 1: is the idea of sending things up into lower earth 496 00:31:16,920 --> 00:31:20,760 Speaker 1: orbit like balloons. You've seen these viral videos all over 497 00:31:20,840 --> 00:31:23,720 Speaker 1: YouTube now where you can make a balloon that will 498 00:31:23,760 --> 00:31:25,320 Speaker 1: go phine uff, you attach a go pro or some 499 00:31:25,400 --> 00:31:27,960 Speaker 1: other equivalent camera to it, and you just send something 500 00:31:28,120 --> 00:31:30,160 Speaker 1: up and then post it to YouTube. And these things 501 00:31:30,240 --> 00:31:32,040 Speaker 1: go really high. A lot of times there's a blinking 502 00:31:32,120 --> 00:31:35,800 Speaker 1: light involved, and you know, just these little innovative things 503 00:31:35,880 --> 00:31:38,240 Speaker 1: that are happening. Maybe that's another part of it too, 504 00:31:38,400 --> 00:31:42,520 Speaker 1: because one thing we haven't mentioned yet is whether the 505 00:31:42,680 --> 00:31:46,760 Speaker 1: US is rate of internet connectivity explains the number of 506 00:31:47,760 --> 00:31:52,480 Speaker 1: sightings that people report. I understand that reasoning, but here's 507 00:31:52,480 --> 00:31:55,400 Speaker 1: why I'm not persuaded that that could be the whole explanation, 508 00:31:55,840 --> 00:32:00,920 Speaker 1: because other countries have way better internet connections in terms 509 00:32:00,960 --> 00:32:04,320 Speaker 1: of speed, in terms of consistency, in terms of uh, 510 00:32:04,560 --> 00:32:07,640 Speaker 1: literally any metric you can imagine. You're talking about South 511 00:32:07,720 --> 00:32:11,200 Speaker 1: Korea absolutely. I'm talking about South Korea. It's so good 512 00:32:11,440 --> 00:32:15,680 Speaker 1: that internet is so good. That's amazing, you know. But 513 00:32:15,840 --> 00:32:19,280 Speaker 1: that's that's a good point and a good counterpoint. So 514 00:32:19,400 --> 00:32:22,040 Speaker 1: we don't know how much role has to play drones. 515 00:32:22,160 --> 00:32:28,560 Speaker 1: Most definitely my money is on testing of unacknowledged military 516 00:32:28,680 --> 00:32:32,960 Speaker 1: vehicles or misidentified vehicles. Ben, I think you might be 517 00:32:33,120 --> 00:32:38,800 Speaker 1: right in a way. The Internet connect connectivity is being 518 00:32:38,960 --> 00:32:41,959 Speaker 1: channeled through our smartphones that we all carry around now, 519 00:32:42,360 --> 00:32:46,920 Speaker 1: so we can all pick up our camera at almost 520 00:32:47,000 --> 00:32:48,880 Speaker 1: any time, not all of us, of course, but many 521 00:32:48,960 --> 00:32:51,280 Speaker 1: of us and just film if we think we see 522 00:32:51,280 --> 00:32:56,440 Speaker 1: a UFO, right, so the sighting itself gets documented faster 523 00:32:57,040 --> 00:33:00,520 Speaker 1: and more reliably. But at the same time, to me, 524 00:33:01,120 --> 00:33:06,960 Speaker 1: that has the potential to diminish the um impact of 525 00:33:07,120 --> 00:33:11,440 Speaker 1: a mirror sighting and report when we are all most 526 00:33:11,520 --> 00:33:14,920 Speaker 1: of us equipped with the stuff to capture the damn thing. 527 00:33:15,440 --> 00:33:19,120 Speaker 1: You know, why don't we have more convincing UFO videos? 528 00:33:19,640 --> 00:33:22,440 Speaker 1: If it's about the rise of technology and the quickness 529 00:33:22,520 --> 00:33:24,760 Speaker 1: of being able to report something, why aren't we seeing 530 00:33:24,840 --> 00:33:30,080 Speaker 1: more Twitter posts, Instagram pictures of legit sightings. And here's 531 00:33:30,080 --> 00:33:36,719 Speaker 1: another thing, why aren't they being identified more concisely or definitively. Uh, 532 00:33:36,960 --> 00:33:40,120 Speaker 1: if if this, all of this technology exists. If not, 533 00:33:40,320 --> 00:33:42,600 Speaker 1: and it is true that now, more than any other 534 00:33:42,720 --> 00:33:48,560 Speaker 1: point in human history, there will be multiple people able 535 00:33:48,640 --> 00:33:52,080 Speaker 1: to document the same thing, right, all three of us. 536 00:33:52,680 --> 00:33:55,000 Speaker 1: If we're out on an adventure somewhere and we see 537 00:33:55,080 --> 00:33:57,400 Speaker 1: something really cool, all three of us are going to 538 00:33:57,600 --> 00:34:01,800 Speaker 1: secure some sort of evidence of it. Right. And with 539 00:34:01,920 --> 00:34:05,720 Speaker 1: those three different angles than the chances of us being 540 00:34:05,760 --> 00:34:09,839 Speaker 1: able to identify something dramatically increase. So there's another question here, 541 00:34:10,000 --> 00:34:13,160 Speaker 1: which is why are these things not being identified more efficiently? 542 00:34:14,120 --> 00:34:17,160 Speaker 1: Why are they still unknown? But there's just more of them. 543 00:34:17,480 --> 00:34:23,120 Speaker 1: That's why, again, my money goes on unacknowledged private sector 544 00:34:23,239 --> 00:34:28,000 Speaker 1: testing of things or military applications. You beat me to it, 545 00:34:28,120 --> 00:34:33,200 Speaker 1: then that seems completely believable, because, as we know, usually 546 00:34:33,440 --> 00:34:36,879 Speaker 1: the military do a pretty good job of keeping their 547 00:34:36,920 --> 00:34:41,200 Speaker 1: new technology under wraps and from the public until they're 548 00:34:41,239 --> 00:34:49,000 Speaker 1: done with it. People didn't even know that stealth helicopters existed. Yeah, right, 549 00:34:49,320 --> 00:34:52,799 Speaker 1: and now now the secrets out and that's still kind 550 00:34:52,840 --> 00:34:58,120 Speaker 1: of a oxy more onto me a stealth helicopter. It's 551 00:34:58,200 --> 00:35:03,680 Speaker 1: like the quiet yell Wilhelm screen, you know, what I 552 00:35:04,239 --> 00:35:08,200 Speaker 1: am seeing a viable business plan here, guys. A service. 553 00:35:09,239 --> 00:35:12,200 Speaker 1: Maybe we can call it UFO. Maybe that's what it's called. 554 00:35:12,640 --> 00:35:14,680 Speaker 1: And it's an app on your phone and all you 555 00:35:14,760 --> 00:35:17,719 Speaker 1: have to do is take a video or whatever however 556 00:35:17,800 --> 00:35:21,040 Speaker 1: you get it, uh, send it through the service. And 557 00:35:21,200 --> 00:35:24,480 Speaker 1: there's human beings on the other side who collate data 558 00:35:24,680 --> 00:35:27,719 Speaker 1: from the f f A f A A from other sources. 559 00:35:28,200 --> 00:35:30,839 Speaker 1: About like, are there any kind of balloon festivals going 560 00:35:30,880 --> 00:35:32,759 Speaker 1: on right now? Is there a wedding where they were 561 00:35:32,840 --> 00:35:36,400 Speaker 1: Chinese lanterns going up? A balloon festival? That sounds charming. 562 00:35:37,440 --> 00:35:38,920 Speaker 1: There might be a balloon I don't know if there's 563 00:35:38,920 --> 00:35:40,960 Speaker 1: such things. Sounds like a lot of fun. We could 564 00:35:41,040 --> 00:35:45,319 Speaker 1: just start a balloon festival. I was thinking hot air balloons. Sure, sure, 565 00:35:45,440 --> 00:35:48,560 Speaker 1: all balloons. But you you just sent in you say, hey, 566 00:35:48,760 --> 00:35:51,400 Speaker 1: was this UFO, and then somebody can go, h it 567 00:35:51,680 --> 00:35:55,640 Speaker 1: was this or yes it was so two things. First off, 568 00:35:56,560 --> 00:35:59,640 Speaker 1: I think that's a great idea. I feel like some 569 00:36:00,120 --> 00:36:02,759 Speaker 1: in this process should be swiping left or right. It's 570 00:36:02,880 --> 00:36:06,280 Speaker 1: very big on phones now, so just maybe they swipe 571 00:36:06,920 --> 00:36:11,320 Speaker 1: to determine the vassity. Secondly, um, I don't know about 572 00:36:11,400 --> 00:36:14,120 Speaker 1: I don't know about you know, but from Matt's pitch, 573 00:36:14,200 --> 00:36:17,759 Speaker 1: I think what I like the most is the balloon festival. Man, 574 00:36:18,440 --> 00:36:20,120 Speaker 1: do you want to do a balloon fest We'll do 575 00:36:20,200 --> 00:36:22,640 Speaker 1: the app as well, but I think we should premier 576 00:36:22,719 --> 00:36:25,840 Speaker 1: it at this balloon festival. Alright, what about a balloon 577 00:36:25,920 --> 00:36:30,680 Speaker 1: festival app where you can find your nearest balloon festival? Heaven? 578 00:36:31,000 --> 00:36:33,040 Speaker 1: I would pay for that. I wouldn't pay much, but 579 00:36:33,080 --> 00:36:34,880 Speaker 1: I pay. See that we have to start another company 580 00:36:34,960 --> 00:36:40,080 Speaker 1: that hosts balloon festivals. Okay, well, now that we've talked 581 00:36:40,120 --> 00:36:44,040 Speaker 1: about it on air, everyone just keep this a secret 582 00:36:44,400 --> 00:36:47,399 Speaker 1: until we can roll it out, because you're the best 583 00:36:47,480 --> 00:36:50,799 Speaker 1: part of this show and we depend on you. Uh, 584 00:36:51,000 --> 00:36:56,160 Speaker 1: speaking of you, I guess it's time for shut at Corner. 585 00:36:59,160 --> 00:37:01,880 Speaker 1: Our first out out today comes from lower Gar the 586 00:37:02,080 --> 00:37:09,160 Speaker 1: Terrible I added second at Vaults of x Stoff, which 587 00:37:09,200 --> 00:37:13,239 Speaker 1: still sounds pretty pretty terrible. Um by terrible, I mean 588 00:37:13,360 --> 00:37:18,040 Speaker 1: metal metal, like like uh intimidating. And some of you 589 00:37:18,120 --> 00:37:21,520 Speaker 1: may actually remember Lord Gar at Vaults of x thof 590 00:37:23,160 --> 00:37:26,440 Speaker 1: x Off Vaults of x Off. He has written to 591 00:37:26,560 --> 00:37:29,360 Speaker 1: us before. Lord Gar If that's his real name, I 592 00:37:29,760 --> 00:37:32,560 Speaker 1: hope so, but I I sort of doubt it. Um. 593 00:37:32,840 --> 00:37:35,840 Speaker 1: Just finished our documentary about the Georgia Guystones on Amazon, hooray, 594 00:37:35,960 --> 00:37:38,520 Speaker 1: and he made a great point. Um. He says, quote, 595 00:37:38,719 --> 00:37:42,080 Speaker 1: one thing about the eugenics angle of the Guystones is, uh, 596 00:37:42,200 --> 00:37:45,279 Speaker 1: if it was for white supremacy, why also have a 597 00:37:45,360 --> 00:37:50,560 Speaker 1: language like sanscript? That is a very um. I I 598 00:37:50,760 --> 00:37:54,800 Speaker 1: if that is there's there's no indication of race. It 599 00:37:54,960 --> 00:37:58,759 Speaker 1: seems to be it's more about intellect. Yeah, there is 600 00:37:58,800 --> 00:38:02,239 Speaker 1: no clear indication. But one thing I think is a 601 00:38:02,360 --> 00:38:06,160 Speaker 1: great point brought up by your question, Lord Gar is 602 00:38:06,440 --> 00:38:17,880 Speaker 1: that the many, many racially oriented supremacy movements idolize or 603 00:38:18,160 --> 00:38:21,880 Speaker 1: fetish size, or imagine some relationship with an ancient, pre 604 00:38:22,000 --> 00:38:25,960 Speaker 1: existing culture. So a lot of people that would be 605 00:38:26,040 --> 00:38:29,960 Speaker 1: identified as white supremacists today we're traveling, as you know, 606 00:38:30,120 --> 00:38:32,960 Speaker 1: European colonizers or something, and they see the ruins of 607 00:38:33,040 --> 00:38:36,680 Speaker 1: this huge African empire and then instead of saying, well, 608 00:38:36,880 --> 00:38:39,279 Speaker 1: the people who lived here previously must have done this, 609 00:38:39,880 --> 00:38:43,600 Speaker 1: they would be like, ah, the white city in Africa. 610 00:38:44,440 --> 00:38:47,960 Speaker 1: So there's this confirmation bias that exists. Um. But I 611 00:38:48,080 --> 00:38:50,239 Speaker 1: still think that is an excellent question if they are 612 00:38:50,719 --> 00:38:55,320 Speaker 1: um supremacist of any sort then why would they also 613 00:38:55,440 --> 00:38:59,880 Speaker 1: have Yeah, yeah, that's true. That doesn't seem like a 614 00:39:00,080 --> 00:39:04,400 Speaker 1: very supremacist oriented thing. But that's a great question. And 615 00:39:04,480 --> 00:39:07,839 Speaker 1: thanks for thanks for watching the documentary. If anyone else 616 00:39:07,880 --> 00:39:10,320 Speaker 1: out there has not seen it, it is available for 617 00:39:10,640 --> 00:39:14,440 Speaker 1: free on Amazon Video. If you don't have Prime, I 618 00:39:14,520 --> 00:39:16,840 Speaker 1: think you get bugged by a couple of ads. But 619 00:39:16,920 --> 00:39:19,400 Speaker 1: if you do, then it is ad free all the 620 00:39:19,440 --> 00:39:20,960 Speaker 1: live long day. Check it out and let us know 621 00:39:21,000 --> 00:39:22,879 Speaker 1: what you think. And for all of you out there 622 00:39:23,280 --> 00:39:29,839 Speaker 1: in Canada or Australia, especially especially folks in Australia and Bananada, 623 00:39:29,960 --> 00:39:33,520 Speaker 1: which is a country I just made up a Bananada. Well, 624 00:39:33,719 --> 00:39:36,880 Speaker 1: all of y'all, um, you can't watch it right now 625 00:39:37,080 --> 00:39:41,239 Speaker 1: currently because of the restrictions on Amazon. However, we are 626 00:39:41,320 --> 00:39:44,959 Speaker 1: finding way, a way, a solution to make this work 627 00:39:45,680 --> 00:39:50,360 Speaker 1: for Illumination Global Unlimited. They've you know, they have their scruples. 628 00:39:50,440 --> 00:39:52,040 Speaker 1: We're gonna We're gonna make it work for them, so 629 00:39:52,200 --> 00:39:54,480 Speaker 1: look for it soon. Our next shout out comes from 630 00:39:54,600 --> 00:39:59,400 Speaker 1: Chad Sandborn, another familiar name at Chad Sandborn, He writes, 631 00:39:59,680 --> 00:40:03,000 Speaker 1: did you see this red mercury scare fascinating? Since it 632 00:40:03,160 --> 00:40:07,320 Speaker 1: doesn't exist? And you guys discussed it last month. I 633 00:40:07,440 --> 00:40:09,520 Speaker 1: did not see this. He sent us an a j 634 00:40:09,760 --> 00:40:14,720 Speaker 1: C article that's our hometown newspaper. It is I believe 635 00:40:14,880 --> 00:40:19,640 Speaker 1: Chad is in atlantin y a t alien alien. I 636 00:40:19,680 --> 00:40:21,880 Speaker 1: don't know how to say that properly, but this is 637 00:40:22,080 --> 00:40:24,439 Speaker 1: I'm just gonna read a quick excerpt from this says 638 00:40:24,480 --> 00:40:27,960 Speaker 1: officials are investigating in downtown Atlanta after reports that a 639 00:40:28,040 --> 00:40:30,960 Speaker 1: man claiming to have red mercury from Africa walked into 640 00:40:31,000 --> 00:40:38,200 Speaker 1: the region to location of the US Nuclear Regulatory Commission. Interesting, right, Um, 641 00:40:39,160 --> 00:40:42,400 Speaker 1: it's says they're still gathering information on the call. And 642 00:40:42,560 --> 00:40:45,680 Speaker 1: here's another quote. Red mercury is reportedly a substance used 643 00:40:45,719 --> 00:40:50,960 Speaker 1: to create nuclear bombs, but its existence has not been documented. Nope, 644 00:40:51,760 --> 00:40:57,480 Speaker 1: it hasn't. Wasn't that some of that Nazi tech in 645 00:40:57,600 --> 00:41:02,160 Speaker 1: the episode? Hey, but the police in Atlanta took it seriously. 646 00:41:02,600 --> 00:41:05,480 Speaker 1: Apparently parts of peach Free Street, Peach Free Center Avenue 647 00:41:05,520 --> 00:41:08,880 Speaker 1: in Courtland Street, down by g s U on the 648 00:41:08,960 --> 00:41:12,480 Speaker 1: mater U they were closed off and officers were redirecting traffic. 649 00:41:12,640 --> 00:41:15,560 Speaker 1: A hasmat team, a bomb squad, and fire trucks were 650 00:41:15,640 --> 00:41:19,040 Speaker 1: seen near the in the investigation dude, do you think 651 00:41:19,120 --> 00:41:21,440 Speaker 1: that's what blew up the bridge? Was it a red 652 00:41:21,560 --> 00:41:29,200 Speaker 1: mercury experiment? Hold on, this is from marcht we haven't 653 00:41:29,239 --> 00:41:33,040 Speaker 1: have we talked about at the show. Okay, so, uh 654 00:41:33,280 --> 00:41:36,600 Speaker 1: several several days ago. It's it's April five as we 655 00:41:36,760 --> 00:41:39,279 Speaker 1: record this, right, just a few days before it comes out. 656 00:41:39,360 --> 00:41:42,040 Speaker 1: Time travels weird, I know, welcome to the show. Uh 657 00:41:42,600 --> 00:41:45,680 Speaker 1: a few a mere a few days ago. Uh, part 658 00:41:45,840 --> 00:41:50,839 Speaker 1: of a very important interstate here in Atlanta. It's an artery. Yeah, 659 00:41:50,880 --> 00:41:52,920 Speaker 1: it's an artery to the beating heart of the city. 660 00:41:53,280 --> 00:41:57,960 Speaker 1: And it caught a fire and collapsed. And you may 661 00:41:58,000 --> 00:42:01,080 Speaker 1: be saying, Matt, no, old b in why would you 662 00:42:01,200 --> 00:42:04,520 Speaker 1: have bridges of oily rags and would But this was 663 00:42:04,640 --> 00:42:10,000 Speaker 1: not a would bridge. This is concrete and steel, baby, 664 00:42:10,160 --> 00:42:15,440 Speaker 1: and didn't. However, happened to have an enormous stockpile of 665 00:42:15,800 --> 00:42:21,359 Speaker 1: heavily flammable materials stored underneath it. Yeah, which which quantifier 666 00:42:21,520 --> 00:42:25,560 Speaker 1: the official narrative? Now? Um, well, first, there were no injuries, 667 00:42:26,360 --> 00:42:29,880 Speaker 1: not even fatalities. There were no injuries. And this was 668 00:42:30,000 --> 00:42:33,240 Speaker 1: at the you know, the hinterlands chronologically speaking of Russia. 669 00:42:33,320 --> 00:42:35,840 Speaker 1: So strange because it was rush hour. Right, it was 670 00:42:35,880 --> 00:42:37,440 Speaker 1: like at the end of rush hour. I drove by 671 00:42:37,480 --> 00:42:41,839 Speaker 1: it at six. He took that photo and posted onto 672 00:42:41,880 --> 00:42:45,160 Speaker 1: the Facebook where you can follow us. We are conspiracy stuff. Correct, 673 00:42:45,480 --> 00:42:49,440 Speaker 1: watch it now before it gets taken down. Wait, why 674 00:42:49,440 --> 00:42:51,040 Speaker 1: did you say it like you're going to take it down. 675 00:42:51,239 --> 00:42:53,120 Speaker 1: I don't know. You might only be able to see 676 00:42:53,160 --> 00:42:56,440 Speaker 1: it for the next few minutes. Something from like snapchat 677 00:42:56,520 --> 00:43:02,239 Speaker 1: kind of thing. Yeah, they sound like and in the characters. Yeah, 678 00:43:02,320 --> 00:43:04,840 Speaker 1: I'm going to take Suvencheon down. So we'd like to 679 00:43:04,920 --> 00:43:07,880 Speaker 1: hear your take on what happened, just to let you 680 00:43:07,960 --> 00:43:11,520 Speaker 1: know the current stance of the officials. Oh, I get 681 00:43:11,560 --> 00:43:14,000 Speaker 1: it because of Red Mercury. It was it was it 682 00:43:14,120 --> 00:43:19,239 Speaker 1: was a Nazi. Yeah, that's what I was going for sure. Yeah, 683 00:43:20,000 --> 00:43:22,680 Speaker 1: if you heard that part that, I hope we cut 684 00:43:22,719 --> 00:43:26,719 Speaker 1: out German listeners. We appreciate your time immensely. Oh, thank you. 685 00:43:27,680 --> 00:43:31,360 Speaker 1: So with just this so that this bridge story real quick. Currently, 686 00:43:31,560 --> 00:43:35,440 Speaker 1: the people who were arrested were three three um. They 687 00:43:35,480 --> 00:43:38,239 Speaker 1: were described as homeless people in the news, and apparently 688 00:43:38,320 --> 00:43:41,759 Speaker 1: they had met previously. I love the way this was depicted. Uh, 689 00:43:42,400 --> 00:43:46,239 Speaker 1: they met under the bridge and began having a discussion 690 00:43:46,680 --> 00:43:49,840 Speaker 1: about smoking crack, which makes it sound like there was 691 00:43:49,920 --> 00:43:53,040 Speaker 1: a meeting dude planning on smoking. It makes it sound 692 00:43:53,080 --> 00:43:55,759 Speaker 1: like somebody said, you know, ladies and gentlemen, thank you 693 00:43:55,920 --> 00:43:59,360 Speaker 1: for meeting me here tonight. I'd like to thank snake 694 00:43:59,480 --> 00:44:02,319 Speaker 1: bite for bringing the beans. There's no one named snake bite, 695 00:44:02,600 --> 00:44:07,360 Speaker 1: but those those people were apprehended and trade and for 696 00:44:07,680 --> 00:44:12,800 Speaker 1: the official purposes, thought to be the originators of this fire. 697 00:44:13,440 --> 00:44:18,680 Speaker 1: But again no one was hurt. Time moves on traffic 698 00:44:18,719 --> 00:44:22,920 Speaker 1: will be terrible. But for some reason, you know, for 699 00:44:23,120 --> 00:44:25,920 Speaker 1: years and years they have been stories very flammable things 700 00:44:26,120 --> 00:44:29,920 Speaker 1: under the bridge, PVC material and that was the Georgia 701 00:44:30,000 --> 00:44:32,480 Speaker 1: Department of Transportation that put it under there, so it 702 00:44:32,560 --> 00:44:36,040 Speaker 1: was kind of their fault. Like oops, it is definitely 703 00:44:36,040 --> 00:44:39,640 Speaker 1: in code violation, right, sure, so we have one more 704 00:44:39,800 --> 00:44:43,680 Speaker 1: email here. Uh. Nathaniel P. Writes in and says, what up, guys, 705 00:44:43,719 --> 00:44:46,520 Speaker 1: this nudy. I just came across the topic that always 706 00:44:46,600 --> 00:44:50,720 Speaker 1: bothered me. Do you remember the Michael Hastings car accident 707 00:44:50,760 --> 00:44:53,120 Speaker 1: a few years back. The recent wiki leaks vault to 708 00:44:53,320 --> 00:44:57,759 Speaker 1: seven release allegedly as info regarding CIA tech capabilities. Among 709 00:44:57,880 --> 00:45:02,200 Speaker 1: those listed are weaponized malware and remote hacking, ironic because 710 00:45:02,239 --> 00:45:05,279 Speaker 1: that is exactly how conspiracy realists believe he died. Was 711 00:45:05,320 --> 00:45:08,560 Speaker 1: he planning on exposing the CIA like he did General Petraeus? 712 00:45:08,920 --> 00:45:11,600 Speaker 1: Was he targeted by the CIA? I remember reading he 713 00:45:11,680 --> 00:45:14,400 Speaker 1: died shortly after telling his lawyer he was being investigated 714 00:45:14,480 --> 00:45:17,200 Speaker 1: by the FBI. This also brings to mind the Air 715 00:45:17,280 --> 00:45:20,080 Speaker 1: and Swarts death, which is really similar. Both died shortly 716 00:45:20,120 --> 00:45:24,120 Speaker 1: after being investigated by the FBI in twenty and then 717 00:45:24,200 --> 00:45:27,200 Speaker 1: goes on to say that he enjoyed the Guide Stones 718 00:45:27,280 --> 00:45:31,239 Speaker 1: documentary and he wonders if we are planning on making 719 00:45:31,400 --> 00:45:34,960 Speaker 1: more documentary style films in the future. Do you remember 720 00:45:34,960 --> 00:45:39,719 Speaker 1: the Michael Hastening stuff. It brings a very very tiny bell. Yeah, 721 00:45:39,760 --> 00:45:42,920 Speaker 1: I very much remember that. And the whole discussion at 722 00:45:42,960 --> 00:45:46,480 Speaker 1: the time was, hey, can cars be hacked? Can these 723 00:45:46,520 --> 00:45:48,960 Speaker 1: new smart cars that are connected the Internet can hacked? 724 00:45:49,280 --> 00:45:53,080 Speaker 1: And the answer came one equivalent on equivocally, yes, it 725 00:45:53,120 --> 00:45:56,839 Speaker 1: can happen. Uh. It was also noted that in most 726 00:45:56,880 --> 00:46:00,800 Speaker 1: situations you would have to physically get into the vehicle 727 00:46:01,239 --> 00:46:04,680 Speaker 1: and attach yourself to one of the onboard computers to 728 00:46:05,000 --> 00:46:07,480 Speaker 1: to make it function, like put a back door in. 729 00:46:07,640 --> 00:46:10,719 Speaker 1: Essentially in the main onboard computer. Yeah, but it was 730 00:46:10,760 --> 00:46:13,640 Speaker 1: shown that if you did, if you did successfully get 731 00:46:13,719 --> 00:46:16,160 Speaker 1: in there, you could stop the brakes, you could make 732 00:46:16,239 --> 00:46:19,960 Speaker 1: the cars engine turn over and go. You could like 733 00:46:20,120 --> 00:46:22,239 Speaker 1: mess with all the lights and they're conditioning. Pretty much 734 00:46:22,239 --> 00:46:24,960 Speaker 1: anything you wanted to do, you could do to a car. 735 00:46:25,560 --> 00:46:28,279 Speaker 1: And one of those things is make it go really 736 00:46:28,360 --> 00:46:32,279 Speaker 1: fast into a tree. Right. So the Hastings information, when 737 00:46:32,560 --> 00:46:37,480 Speaker 1: Hastings and Swords passed away, the current information said that 738 00:46:37,560 --> 00:46:39,720 Speaker 1: you can do this, but it has to be plugged 739 00:46:39,760 --> 00:46:45,000 Speaker 1: in physically to the car's computer. But now it seems 740 00:46:45,120 --> 00:46:49,600 Speaker 1: that the CIA has the technology that was always speculated 741 00:46:49,880 --> 00:46:52,040 Speaker 1: that they have. And what's more, that this can be 742 00:46:52,640 --> 00:46:56,560 Speaker 1: remotely accessed with no physical contact with the car. That 743 00:46:56,760 --> 00:46:59,320 Speaker 1: is so scary. So the car itself becomes the weapon. 744 00:47:01,040 --> 00:47:05,600 Speaker 1: And you're right, new T, that's what that. The the 745 00:47:05,760 --> 00:47:09,360 Speaker 1: hacks indicate that they are definitely, if not already capable 746 00:47:09,400 --> 00:47:12,040 Speaker 1: of doing so working on that and it's a super 747 00:47:12,239 --> 00:47:15,880 Speaker 1: valuable you know, it's a super valuable tool to have 748 00:47:17,160 --> 00:47:20,120 Speaker 1: for that line of work. I don't want to be 749 00:47:20,280 --> 00:47:24,360 Speaker 1: able to remotely control other people's cars that would go 750 00:47:24,600 --> 00:47:27,839 Speaker 1: power man. I have very definite opinions about how people 751 00:47:27,880 --> 00:47:31,040 Speaker 1: should behave in traffic. Oh you could. You could be 752 00:47:31,520 --> 00:47:36,160 Speaker 1: a car hacker for good. Everybody, every I guarantee you 753 00:47:36,280 --> 00:47:38,520 Speaker 1: everybody who is doing that thinks they are also a 754 00:47:38,640 --> 00:47:41,919 Speaker 1: car hacker for good. Oh yeah, you're well maybe yeah. 755 00:47:42,360 --> 00:47:46,520 Speaker 1: Good is just like uh good depends on where you 756 00:47:46,600 --> 00:47:48,560 Speaker 1: stand and when you meet it. You're more of a 757 00:47:48,920 --> 00:47:53,520 Speaker 1: brown hat hacker, yeah yeah, or or a red hat 758 00:47:53,719 --> 00:47:57,719 Speaker 1: just for the excitement. I like that. And just make 759 00:47:57,800 --> 00:48:00,440 Speaker 1: everybody use their blinkers all the time. That's all I ask. Please. 760 00:48:02,040 --> 00:48:04,960 Speaker 1: That's going into something that's a different show, but we 761 00:48:05,320 --> 00:48:08,960 Speaker 1: we appreciate it. Thank you for not letting Michael Hastings 762 00:48:09,040 --> 00:48:11,440 Speaker 1: be forgotten, Newty, and thank you for your interests.
