Listener discretion is advised. 7 00:00:20,840 --> 00:00:24,440 Speaker 1: Welcome back, Mike, Where have we been? We did take 8 00:00:24,480 --> 00:00:28,360 Speaker 1: a very last minute trip this weekend for Up and Vanished, actually, 9 00:00:28,720 --> 00:00:31,760 Speaker 1: and I think that it was a very successful mission 10 00:00:31,960 --> 00:00:35,040 Speaker 1: and you'll learn more about that soon Top secret, Top 11 00:00:35,080 --> 00:00:38,559 Speaker 1: Secret Baby. Instead of having a conversation about the episode, 12 00:00:38,600 --> 00:00:41,720 Speaker 1: which the episode is basically a conversation in itself, just 13 00:00:41,760 --> 00:00:44,159 Speaker 1: to not leave you hanging, here's the teaser for the 14 00:00:44,200 --> 00:00:51,240 Speaker 1: next episode of Up and Vanished. Going into this season, 15 00:00:51,520 --> 00:00:53,479 Speaker 1: I told myself, I need to step out of my 16 00:00:53,520 --> 00:00:56,480 Speaker 1: comfort zone and do whatever I can within my legal 17 00:00:56,600 --> 00:00:59,480 Speaker 1: and own moral bounds to help find the truth about 18 00:00:59,480 --> 00:01:03,840 Speaker 1: what happened to Florence oc Piolock. All Rhodes led to 19 00:01:03,880 --> 00:01:06,959 Speaker 1: a man with the nickname Oregon John. He's got a 20 00:01:07,040 --> 00:01:11,319 Speaker 1: very bad rap sheet charges that include assault, sexual assault, 21 00:01:11,560 --> 00:01:14,000 Speaker 1: and cruelty to animals, and as far as we know, 22 00:01:14,600 --> 00:01:17,840 Speaker 1: Orgon John is the last person to have seen Flow alive. 23 00:01:19,240 --> 00:01:22,040 Speaker 1: In an effort to find the truth, I catfished Oregon 24 00:01:22,120 --> 00:01:29,160 Speaker 1: John on Facebook, pretending to be someone else where. Conversations 25 00:01:29,200 --> 00:01:32,200 Speaker 1: on Facebook Messenger eventually led to an in person meeting 26 00:01:32,480 --> 00:01:36,240 Speaker 1: at a bar in Ketchikan, Alaska. I met John face 27 00:01:36,280 --> 00:01:40,400 Speaker 1: to face and pretended I was somebody else, and over 28 00:01:40,440 --> 00:01:43,640 Speaker 1: the course of about two hours we learned details that, 29 00:01:43,720 --> 00:01:46,240 Speaker 1: in my mind, seemed to paint John as an even 30 00:01:46,280 --> 00:01:50,360 Speaker 1: more suspicious character. He had a bad answer for everything 31 00:01:51,000 --> 00:01:53,800 Speaker 1: in his own tall tales about how Flow was murdered 32 00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:56,720 Speaker 1: by another man and put inside a barrel under a 33 00:01:56,760 --> 00:02:00,560 Speaker 1: meth dealer's house and Nome. Was John actually tell the truth? 34 00:02:01,880 --> 00:02:04,160 Speaker 1: If he was, he made no effort in telling the 35 00:02:04,160 --> 00:02:07,600 Speaker 1: authorities this something pretty basic to do, especially if you're 36 00:02:07,640 --> 00:02:12,120 Speaker 1: considered a suspect. Instead, Oregon John fled Nome and he's 37 00:02:12,200 --> 00:02:17,360 Speaker 1: never stepped foot back there. Upon meeting John in person, 38 00:02:17,840 --> 00:02:20,560 Speaker 1: arguably my biggest fear in the moment was whether or 39 00:02:20,600 --> 00:02:23,800 Speaker 1: not John believed me. On more than one occasion, during 40 00:02:23,840 --> 00:02:26,519 Speaker 1: our conversation at the catch Acam bar, John mentioned that 41 00:02:26,560 --> 00:02:30,560 Speaker 1: a podcaster was investigating Flow's case. I'm pretty sure he's 42 00:02:30,560 --> 00:02:34,000 Speaker 1: talking about Up and Vanished. Through my own deductive reasoning, 43 00:02:34,360 --> 00:02:37,560 Speaker 1: I surmised that Kelly, not her real name, the woman 44 00:02:37,560 --> 00:02:40,800 Speaker 1: who had texted people about Flow's murder, had somehow relayed 45 00:02:40,800 --> 00:02:44,800 Speaker 1: to John that this podcast existed. It's my belief that 46 00:02:44,880 --> 00:02:47,280 Speaker 1: John was likely made aware of this podcast the day 47 00:02:47,320 --> 00:02:49,800 Speaker 1: before I met him, but he didn't do his research, 48 00:02:51,840 --> 00:02:54,000 Speaker 1: and though admittedly he was a little dubious about who 49 00:02:54,080 --> 00:02:57,639 Speaker 1: I really was, he'd already taken the bait. Had he 50 00:02:57,720 --> 00:03:00,160 Speaker 1: simply googled up and Vanished, he would have seen my 51 00:03:00,200 --> 00:03:04,079 Speaker 1: face immediately. I doubt our barn meeting would have ever 52 00:03:04,160 --> 00:03:07,440 Speaker 1: even happened, but it did, and I think that in 53 00:03:07,480 --> 00:03:10,280 Speaker 1: that moment, John fully believed that I was who I 54 00:03:10,320 --> 00:03:14,079 Speaker 1: said I was. But the whole thing is a complex 55 00:03:14,160 --> 00:03:19,200 Speaker 1: mind game. But part me wants to like play with fire. 56 00:03:19,840 --> 00:03:22,840 Speaker 1: There's no rule book for this, there's no blueprint for 57 00:03:22,880 --> 00:03:26,280 Speaker 1: how long I keep this ruse going. Did he know 58 00:03:26,320 --> 00:03:29,040 Speaker 1: who I really was and just meant me to try 59 00:03:29,040 --> 00:03:33,200 Speaker 1: to discreetly clear his name. Well, if he did, he failed, 60 00:03:33,960 --> 00:03:36,080 Speaker 1: and none of what he said seemed to redeem his 61 00:03:36,160 --> 00:03:39,480 Speaker 1: character at all. I tend to believe John may have 62 00:03:39,480 --> 00:03:42,520 Speaker 1: had his suspicions about me, but his own narcissism got 63 00:03:42,520 --> 00:03:45,040 Speaker 1: in the way. And on the off chance that I 64 00:03:45,160 --> 00:03:48,480 Speaker 1: was in fact this podcaster, he probably believed he could 65 00:03:48,520 --> 00:03:52,800 Speaker 1: talk his way out of this, but he failed. Instead, 66 00:03:53,080 --> 00:03:56,520 Speaker 1: he walked into my trap, and he exposed his true character. 67 00:03:57,920 --> 00:04:01,560 Speaker 1: The clock is sticking because sooner or later, just about 68 00:04:01,560 --> 00:04:04,160 Speaker 1: anyone can figure out that I'm doing a podcast about 69 00:04:04,200 --> 00:04:08,200 Speaker 1: this case. Is there value in seeing how he reacts 70 00:04:08,240 --> 00:04:14,000 Speaker 1: when I tell him that I tricked him? There's a 71 00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:15,839 Speaker 1: little bit of a danger elem out there. I'm kind 72 00:04:15,840 --> 00:04:19,120 Speaker 1: of worried about it, to be honest. What are my 73 00:04:19,200 --> 00:04:22,520 Speaker 1: options here? I can keep playing along as this catfish, 74 00:04:22,960 --> 00:04:31,360 Speaker 1: but for how long? Maybe he smartens up, or maybe 75 00:04:31,400 --> 00:04:37,680 Speaker 1: he just shows us as true fucking colors. I almost 76 00:04:37,680 --> 00:04:46,840 Speaker 1: want to take a boulder stance here. It's just unknown territory. 77 00:04:47,839 --> 00:04:50,240 Speaker 1: But if I just pulled the cat out of the 78 00:04:50,320 --> 00:04:52,880 Speaker 1: bag in front of him, this guy is the biggest, 79 00:04:53,120 --> 00:04:58,799 Speaker 1: most annoying enigma. Do I push Oregon John even further? 80 00:05:00,160 --> 00:05:03,520 Speaker 1: Do I continue catfishing him? Or do I tell him 81 00:05:03,839 --> 00:05:10,880 Speaker 1: who I really am? If this guy became convinced that 82 00:05:10,920 --> 00:05:15,520 Speaker 1: he was going down, I think he'd feel very threatened 83 00:05:15,520 --> 00:05:24,440 Speaker 1: by that that shit is concerning. I went two months 84 00:05:24,680 --> 00:05:29,400 Speaker 1: with no contact. Then I opened up my fake Facebook 85 00:05:29,400 --> 00:05:33,559 Speaker 1: account and took another shot in the dark. He hadn't 86 00:05:33,560 --> 00:05:37,480 Speaker 1: messaged me in two months either. What does that mean exactly? 87 00:05:40,480 --> 00:05:43,839 Speaker 1: I took Andy's advice and I messaged him again as 88 00:05:43,880 --> 00:05:58,039 Speaker 1: this fake person. Okay, here goes nothing, I said. I 89 00:05:58,080 --> 00:06:01,520 Speaker 1: looked up that missing girl on Google and it says 90 00:06:01,520 --> 00:06:04,760 Speaker 1: they didn't find her yet. Did the FBI keep it 91 00:06:04,800 --> 00:06:12,840 Speaker 1: a secret? He read it. He's online right now and 92 00:06:12,880 --> 00:06:21,360 Speaker 1: in no time at all he read it. He's typing. 93 00:06:28,520 --> 00:06:34,840 Speaker 1: He simply said, I don't know. Well, okay, now where 94 00:06:34,960 --> 00:06:40,719 Speaker 1: I say? I replied and said, I feel like the 95 00:06:40,760 --> 00:06:43,800 Speaker 1: nome PD is in on it or something. I couldn't 96 00:06:43,800 --> 00:06:46,920 Speaker 1: find anything about the barrel they found under the house. 97 00:06:47,400 --> 00:06:52,720 Speaker 1: Are they the ones who found that? He read it 98 00:06:53,040 --> 00:07:01,200 Speaker 1: but didn't respond, I said, what should think? No response? 99 00:07:02,720 --> 00:07:06,120 Speaker 1: Feels like the tone is changing a bit. I sent 100 00:07:06,240 --> 00:07:09,120 Speaker 1: him a gift. It's a black and white video of 101 00:07:09,160 --> 00:07:11,560 Speaker 1: a kid from what looks like a nineteen forties movie, 102 00:07:11,760 --> 00:07:18,080 Speaker 1: just tapping his fingers waiting no response. Well, this is 103 00:07:18,120 --> 00:07:21,920 Speaker 1: going nowhere. Let me send them a screenshot of one 104 00:07:21,920 --> 00:07:28,360 Speaker 1: of Kelly's messages that mentions his name. He read it. 105 00:07:32,400 --> 00:07:39,440 Speaker 1: Now my messages aren't going through, he blocked me. Classic. 106 00:07:43,240 --> 00:07:47,440 Speaker 1: Today's guest is a very talented Emmy Award winning journalist. 107 00:07:47,840 --> 00:07:49,880 Speaker 1: This guy is not afraid at all to put himself 108 00:07:49,880 --> 00:07:52,680 Speaker 1: on the front lines of pretty much every news story 109 00:07:52,680 --> 00:07:54,640 Speaker 1: in the world. I sat down with him and talked 110 00:07:54,640 --> 00:07:57,320 Speaker 1: about some pretty big true crime cases you've probably heard of, 111 00:07:57,640 --> 00:08:01,400 Speaker 1: and even UFOs. His name is Brian Inton, and he 112 00:08:01,440 --> 00:08:03,960 Speaker 1: works at News Nation. If you followed the UFO story 113 00:08:04,000 --> 00:08:05,920 Speaker 1: at all, news Nation has been staying on the pulse 114 00:08:06,040 --> 00:08:09,280 Speaker 1: of all things UAP, and Brian has a very interesting 115 00:08:09,360 --> 00:08:12,040 Speaker 1: take on what these things are and where we go 116 00:08:12,080 --> 00:08:25,960 Speaker 1: from here. So, without further ado, here's Brian Inton. What's 117 00:08:26,040 --> 00:08:26,760 Speaker 1: up man, how you doing? 118 00:08:26,840 --> 00:08:29,320 Speaker 2: Hey, thanks for having me in your hotel room. 119 00:08:29,680 --> 00:08:32,760 Speaker 1: I know it's cool, glorious Orlando. Yeah, I'm looking. 120 00:08:32,559 --> 00:08:36,400 Speaker 2: At at the theme parks and oh yeah, beautiful Orlando. 121 00:08:36,080 --> 00:08:40,240 Speaker 1: Shopping centers and you know outlet malls. Yeah, yeah, as 122 00:08:40,320 --> 00:08:44,200 Speaker 1: much as you want. So this is your Brian Inton, 123 00:08:44,400 --> 00:08:50,079 Speaker 1: your Emmy Award winning journalist, reporter. I want to talk 124 00:08:50,120 --> 00:08:52,360 Speaker 1: to you about your career a little bit today, and 125 00:08:52,600 --> 00:08:55,640 Speaker 1: just firstly, how you got into all this? 126 00:08:56,760 --> 00:09:01,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, so I was in local news Miami for quite 127 00:09:01,840 --> 00:09:05,160 Speaker 2: a while. That's where I'm from, South Florida, And I 128 00:09:05,320 --> 00:09:08,560 Speaker 2: started working at News Nation, which it was an upstart 129 00:09:09,080 --> 00:09:12,680 Speaker 2: new cable news channel, and one of my first stories 130 00:09:12,800 --> 00:09:17,120 Speaker 2: was the Gabby Potito story. So they sent me to Northport, Florida, 131 00:09:17,520 --> 00:09:19,720 Speaker 2: you know, when she was missing, when Brian was missing, 132 00:09:20,960 --> 00:09:24,360 Speaker 2: and basically just camped out there, camped out on the 133 00:09:24,400 --> 00:09:25,679 Speaker 2: lawn for a couple months and. 134 00:09:25,800 --> 00:09:26,560 Speaker 1: A couple of months. 135 00:09:26,640 --> 00:09:30,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, and uh, where'd you shower? Well, we had 136 00:09:30,040 --> 00:09:34,400 Speaker 2: a hotel, we had a fair field in close by, 137 00:09:34,600 --> 00:09:37,400 Speaker 2: so we would go there and like rest up and shower, 138 00:09:37,480 --> 00:09:41,559 Speaker 2: and but we actually rented a spot on the neighbor's 139 00:09:41,640 --> 00:09:46,360 Speaker 2: lawn because the police were keeping all the reporters. Sorry 140 00:09:46,360 --> 00:09:48,960 Speaker 2: and like jumping around, you're good. The police were keeping 141 00:09:48,960 --> 00:09:50,440 Speaker 2: all the reporters off the street there, and there was 142 00:09:50,440 --> 00:09:52,480 Speaker 2: no sidewalking, you know, like you can usually stay on 143 00:09:52,520 --> 00:09:54,560 Speaker 2: the sidewalk as like a reporter they can't get but 144 00:09:54,600 --> 00:09:56,400 Speaker 2: they were not letting you do that, no, because there 145 00:09:56,480 --> 00:09:58,600 Speaker 2: was no sidewalk. So and it was like this kind 146 00:09:58,600 --> 00:10:01,320 Speaker 2: of weird Florida. Speaking of weird Orlando, it's like a 147 00:10:01,320 --> 00:10:04,480 Speaker 2: weird Floorida neighborhood. There was no sidewalk, and so they 148 00:10:04,480 --> 00:10:07,120 Speaker 2: basically like, we had nowhere to go. So luckily the 149 00:10:07,120 --> 00:10:11,720 Speaker 2: neighbors were super cool and we ended up paying them 150 00:10:11,760 --> 00:10:14,680 Speaker 2: to let us have a spot on their lawn so 151 00:10:14,720 --> 00:10:17,000 Speaker 2: that we could stay there just in case, like Brian 152 00:10:17,080 --> 00:10:19,120 Speaker 2: came home. That kind of thing. Right, That's how I 153 00:10:19,160 --> 00:10:22,520 Speaker 2: got into this whole like true crime world. Okay, yeah, 154 00:10:22,760 --> 00:10:24,560 Speaker 2: starting with that story. 155 00:10:25,920 --> 00:10:29,480 Speaker 1: So when the Gabby Potito story first landed on your desk, 156 00:10:30,040 --> 00:10:31,839 Speaker 1: what did you know at that point? Like where was 157 00:10:31,880 --> 00:10:32,440 Speaker 1: it at? 158 00:10:32,920 --> 00:10:36,680 Speaker 2: It was really early on and basically they were missing. 159 00:10:36,720 --> 00:10:38,440 Speaker 2: We didn't know much of anything at all. It hadn't 160 00:10:38,480 --> 00:10:41,240 Speaker 2: gotten a lot of national coverage. I guess one of 161 00:10:41,240 --> 00:10:43,920 Speaker 2: our bosses must have been for some reason sent us there. 162 00:10:43,960 --> 00:10:47,120 Speaker 2: Thought it was interesting. And my first thought was like, 163 00:10:47,360 --> 00:10:49,720 Speaker 2: cause I looked at Gabby's social media on the drive 164 00:10:49,720 --> 00:10:53,439 Speaker 2: from Miami. My photographer Luis was driving, and I'm like, well, 165 00:10:53,480 --> 00:10:55,439 Speaker 2: maybe this is like some kind of social media prank 166 00:10:55,559 --> 00:10:58,280 Speaker 2: or something like they purposely went. That was my first thought, 167 00:10:58,400 --> 00:11:00,480 Speaker 2: like are they doing Maybe they're doing this is like 168 00:11:00,520 --> 00:11:03,520 Speaker 2: a you know, to get attention or something. And I 169 00:11:03,559 --> 00:11:05,160 Speaker 2: thought like we'd be there for a couple of days 170 00:11:05,200 --> 00:11:07,600 Speaker 2: and they would be found and we would move on 171 00:11:07,679 --> 00:11:10,920 Speaker 2: to the next thing and they'd be okay. But it just, 172 00:11:11,360 --> 00:11:13,520 Speaker 2: you know, all the twists and turns started happening, and 173 00:11:13,559 --> 00:11:16,200 Speaker 2: I like just kind of became obsessed with the story. 174 00:11:16,320 --> 00:11:19,680 Speaker 1: Like hell, so like it was just weird. 175 00:11:19,559 --> 00:11:22,360 Speaker 2: Like being outside Brian Laundry's parents house, they wouldn't talk 176 00:11:22,440 --> 00:11:24,920 Speaker 2: to us. Then we started talking to Gabby's parents and 177 00:11:24,960 --> 00:11:28,560 Speaker 2: they were saying that that Brian's parents were ignoring their calls, 178 00:11:28,600 --> 00:11:31,400 Speaker 2: Like it just didn't make sense, like why, you know, 179 00:11:31,400 --> 00:11:35,040 Speaker 2: if they were both missing, why would Brian's parents not 180 00:11:35,120 --> 00:11:39,440 Speaker 2: be communicating with Gabby's parents. And I just like it 181 00:11:39,600 --> 00:11:42,280 Speaker 2: just it was like a just a mystery, and I 182 00:11:42,280 --> 00:11:43,840 Speaker 2: don't know, I just felt like I needed to stay 183 00:11:43,840 --> 00:11:44,440 Speaker 2: at that house. 184 00:11:44,800 --> 00:11:47,480 Speaker 1: Did it feel like that at any moment something could happen. 185 00:11:47,520 --> 00:11:50,720 Speaker 1: I mean, obviously, if Brian walks, if he goes home, 186 00:11:51,160 --> 00:11:54,120 Speaker 1: the yeah, peese will know that. You guys will know, yeah, exactly. 187 00:11:54,120 --> 00:11:56,160 Speaker 2: That's why we didn't want to leave, like because there 188 00:11:56,200 --> 00:11:57,760 Speaker 2: was this time where we didn't know if he was 189 00:11:57,840 --> 00:12:00,920 Speaker 2: gonna walk in, you know, if they were going to 190 00:12:00,960 --> 00:12:03,920 Speaker 2: show up, and then later on there were like FBI 191 00:12:04,080 --> 00:12:05,960 Speaker 2: raids at the house, which we didn't know were gonna 192 00:12:05,960 --> 00:12:08,600 Speaker 2: happen unless we just stayed there, right, So we were 193 00:12:08,640 --> 00:12:11,640 Speaker 2: really nervous to leave. Like I don't know, my gut 194 00:12:11,679 --> 00:12:12,960 Speaker 2: just said, like stay at that house. 195 00:12:13,120 --> 00:12:16,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, and I mean not too long after your coverage. 196 00:12:16,080 --> 00:12:21,280 Speaker 1: It just that case really gained national attention. Yeah, more 197 00:12:21,320 --> 00:12:23,800 Speaker 1: so than a lot of cases I've seen in the 198 00:12:23,840 --> 00:12:27,360 Speaker 1: past five ten years. Yeah, what was your reaction to that? 199 00:12:27,600 --> 00:12:29,200 Speaker 1: And why do you think that was exactly? 200 00:12:30,200 --> 00:12:34,400 Speaker 2: I think it's because like she had a really you know, 201 00:12:34,520 --> 00:12:36,960 Speaker 2: interesting social media presence. She had a lot of videos, 202 00:12:37,040 --> 00:12:40,240 Speaker 2: She had, you know, an Instagram page about their van 203 00:12:40,320 --> 00:12:44,199 Speaker 2: life that I think people connected to. I don't know what. 204 00:12:44,400 --> 00:12:46,600 Speaker 2: There was just something about Gabby. I think that people, 205 00:12:47,040 --> 00:12:50,240 Speaker 2: a lot of domestic violence victims felt the connection to it. 206 00:12:50,360 --> 00:12:53,120 Speaker 2: Just from the very beginning. It just it started picking 207 00:12:53,200 --> 00:12:55,320 Speaker 2: up steam. Like even for me when I when I 208 00:12:55,360 --> 00:12:59,120 Speaker 2: got there, I just had no idea the story would 209 00:12:59,160 --> 00:13:02,200 Speaker 2: like me so much and change my life. But like 210 00:13:02,240 --> 00:13:03,760 Speaker 2: there was just so much interest. Like I think I 211 00:13:03,760 --> 00:13:07,400 Speaker 2: had like twenty thousand Twitter followers when I started, and like, 212 00:13:07,800 --> 00:13:10,200 Speaker 2: you know, within a month, like hundreds of thousands, just 213 00:13:10,200 --> 00:13:12,640 Speaker 2: like people were just like clamoring for information. 214 00:13:12,840 --> 00:13:16,240 Speaker 1: Yeah, give me some. I'm just kidding. Yeah, Yeah, that's crazy. 215 00:13:16,360 --> 00:13:16,960 Speaker 2: Yeah. 216 00:13:17,080 --> 00:13:21,840 Speaker 1: I mean, you know, looking at that case, there's the 217 00:13:21,880 --> 00:13:25,720 Speaker 1: infamous phrase, now you know, missing white woman syndrome. Yeah, 218 00:13:25,760 --> 00:13:28,160 Speaker 1: and you know, I want to carefully talk about that 219 00:13:28,160 --> 00:13:31,000 Speaker 1: because I don't want to, you know, disparage anybody. Yeah, 220 00:13:31,000 --> 00:13:33,200 Speaker 1: but you know, I feel like that's probably a part 221 00:13:33,240 --> 00:13:37,600 Speaker 1: of it. Just I mean, I think that in your 222 00:13:37,640 --> 00:13:41,880 Speaker 1: time as a reporter, do you find that certain listeners 223 00:13:41,960 --> 00:13:45,880 Speaker 1: or viewers are drawn to certain types of stories that 224 00:13:45,960 --> 00:13:48,880 Speaker 1: they either relate to or feel some connection to. 225 00:13:49,280 --> 00:13:53,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, definitely. And I think with Gabby's story again, it 226 00:13:53,200 --> 00:13:55,720 Speaker 2: was like moms connected to it because they saw like 227 00:13:55,800 --> 00:13:59,960 Speaker 2: their kids in Gabby. And then once more details came out, 228 00:14:00,800 --> 00:14:04,839 Speaker 2: like just so many domestic violence survivors connected, like we 229 00:14:04,840 --> 00:14:07,560 Speaker 2: were outside the house. I mean, it was it was crazy, 230 00:14:07,679 --> 00:14:10,280 Speaker 2: like what was going on outside this house, Like we 231 00:14:10,880 --> 00:14:14,040 Speaker 2: when we were just camped out there, Like people were 232 00:14:14,080 --> 00:14:16,040 Speaker 2: just coming to the house from all over the country, 233 00:14:16,040 --> 00:14:19,160 Speaker 2: like women who had had domestic violence in their past 234 00:14:19,200 --> 00:14:21,000 Speaker 2: and just like coming to that house just to like 235 00:14:21,080 --> 00:14:23,200 Speaker 2: come there. And then they would tell us their story 236 00:14:23,280 --> 00:14:25,240 Speaker 2: there just to be there. They just felt like they 237 00:14:25,280 --> 00:14:27,360 Speaker 2: wanted to show support for Gabby's family. They wanted to 238 00:14:27,360 --> 00:14:30,640 Speaker 2: pressure the laundries, thinking that they knew something, and they 239 00:14:30,680 --> 00:14:32,520 Speaker 2: would come and be like, yeah, you know, I got 240 00:14:32,560 --> 00:14:35,760 Speaker 2: out of my relationship, and they just like really connected 241 00:14:35,800 --> 00:14:37,200 Speaker 2: to this this story. 242 00:14:37,800 --> 00:14:41,080 Speaker 1: This was in Bumble, Florida, right, I mean. 243 00:14:41,240 --> 00:14:43,120 Speaker 2: People were driving there from and it was hot. It 244 00:14:43,200 --> 00:14:47,360 Speaker 2: was hot, swampy floorda summer. I was drenched in sweat 245 00:14:47,360 --> 00:14:49,240 Speaker 2: all the time, and it was raining every day, and 246 00:14:49,600 --> 00:14:52,520 Speaker 2: you know, like it flooded there like all the there 247 00:14:52,560 --> 00:14:55,200 Speaker 2: was like this trench that just stick We were sticky 248 00:14:55,240 --> 00:14:57,600 Speaker 2: the whole time, Mosquitos, and these people would come out 249 00:14:57,600 --> 00:15:00,560 Speaker 2: there and just want to stand around and talk about 250 00:15:00,600 --> 00:15:05,280 Speaker 2: and I just realized like they had this connection to Gabby. 251 00:15:05,320 --> 00:15:07,480 Speaker 2: It was really And even I just saw Gabby Patito's 252 00:15:07,480 --> 00:15:09,440 Speaker 2: parents here at crime Con and we were talking about 253 00:15:09,440 --> 00:15:12,080 Speaker 2: it too, and even they're like, you know, there was 254 00:15:12,160 --> 00:15:14,720 Speaker 2: just something about the timing and they they can't even 255 00:15:14,720 --> 00:15:16,680 Speaker 2: figure out like why it just exploded. 256 00:15:16,880 --> 00:15:19,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean it became a huge story that you 257 00:15:19,520 --> 00:15:22,400 Speaker 1: just could not miss if you were anywhere near a 258 00:15:22,440 --> 00:15:25,160 Speaker 1: TV or a radio or the internet. 259 00:15:24,520 --> 00:15:27,400 Speaker 2: At yeah, it seemed like yeah, no totally, and people 260 00:15:27,800 --> 00:15:30,560 Speaker 2: were just you know living for me, living that in 261 00:15:30,600 --> 00:15:33,560 Speaker 2: real time, and just like the obsession that people had 262 00:15:33,640 --> 00:15:36,880 Speaker 2: and like they just wanted constant information. It was kind 263 00:15:36,880 --> 00:15:39,160 Speaker 2: of overwhelming because again, like I was, you know, I 264 00:15:39,160 --> 00:15:41,120 Speaker 2: had been in local news and then it's not like 265 00:15:41,160 --> 00:15:43,480 Speaker 2: I had done a lot of big stories where there 266 00:15:43,520 --> 00:15:45,520 Speaker 2: was a lot of attention, you know. So I was 267 00:15:45,560 --> 00:15:47,720 Speaker 2: trying to put out information as quickly as I could, 268 00:15:47,760 --> 00:15:49,960 Speaker 2: but it was you know, some days it was hard. 269 00:15:50,520 --> 00:15:53,480 Speaker 1: After camping out for weeks, what was the next big 270 00:15:53,520 --> 00:15:54,720 Speaker 1: thing that happen in that case? 271 00:15:55,760 --> 00:15:57,800 Speaker 2: So I'm trying to think back. I mean, they started 272 00:15:57,800 --> 00:16:01,280 Speaker 2: searching the swamp. They got the information that he may 273 00:16:01,320 --> 00:16:04,400 Speaker 2: have been hiding out at the swamp. So then we 274 00:16:04,400 --> 00:16:06,240 Speaker 2: would spend a lot of time at the swamp, which 275 00:16:06,280 --> 00:16:08,520 Speaker 2: was like twenty minutes away. It is called the Carlton Reserve. 276 00:16:09,120 --> 00:16:11,040 Speaker 2: So we'd go back and forth between the house and 277 00:16:11,040 --> 00:16:14,440 Speaker 2: the swamp, talking to the families a lot during that time, 278 00:16:14,800 --> 00:16:18,480 Speaker 2: trying to get information from police, like all sorts of 279 00:16:18,480 --> 00:16:21,280 Speaker 2: weird stuff happening at the house. Like I didn't report 280 00:16:21,320 --> 00:16:23,560 Speaker 2: on this at the time, but like the police put 281 00:16:23,600 --> 00:16:25,840 Speaker 2: these hidden cameras, like in trees and stuff, because they 282 00:16:25,840 --> 00:16:27,520 Speaker 2: thought Brian Laundry might come in through the. 283 00:16:27,480 --> 00:16:30,120 Speaker 1: Back, like trail like game cameras, though they were. 284 00:16:30,040 --> 00:16:31,920 Speaker 2: More advanced in that they were like and the FBI 285 00:16:32,080 --> 00:16:34,440 Speaker 2: was involved, Like there were like these little surveillance cameras 286 00:16:34,480 --> 00:16:36,200 Speaker 2: that we got pictures of at the time, but like, 287 00:16:36,360 --> 00:16:38,160 Speaker 2: I didn't want to report it because if he was alive, 288 00:16:38,160 --> 00:16:39,960 Speaker 2: and I didn't want him to like not come back, 289 00:16:39,960 --> 00:16:40,360 Speaker 2: because I. 290 00:16:40,640 --> 00:16:42,320 Speaker 1: So where was this guy the whole time? 291 00:16:42,360 --> 00:16:44,480 Speaker 2: Though for real, it turns out he was dead. I mean, 292 00:16:44,680 --> 00:16:47,640 Speaker 2: they've got whole time. Well we don't know the exact timing, 293 00:16:47,720 --> 00:16:50,880 Speaker 2: but he he you know, killed himself in that swamp. 294 00:16:50,960 --> 00:16:54,160 Speaker 2: That's where they found the body. We don't know exactly 295 00:16:54,520 --> 00:16:56,280 Speaker 2: at what point though, were. 296 00:16:56,120 --> 00:17:00,000 Speaker 1: They able to determine that at any degree how long 297 00:17:00,040 --> 00:17:03,240 Speaker 1: he'd been there or how long he'd. 298 00:17:02,200 --> 00:17:04,560 Speaker 2: For Yeah, it had been a while because his body 299 00:17:04,640 --> 00:17:06,880 Speaker 2: was decomposed, it was like bones. 300 00:17:06,560 --> 00:17:08,200 Speaker 1: So likely early on he had killed himself. 301 00:17:08,320 --> 00:17:10,880 Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, So there was this whole national search. People 302 00:17:10,920 --> 00:17:14,639 Speaker 2: thought he was on you know, hiking in South Carolina, 303 00:17:14,680 --> 00:17:16,040 Speaker 2: and people thought he was all there were all sorts 304 00:17:16,040 --> 00:17:17,720 Speaker 2: of crazy theories but it turned out he was dead 305 00:17:17,720 --> 00:17:19,320 Speaker 2: for a long time. Yeah. 306 00:17:19,400 --> 00:17:22,879 Speaker 1: So moving on to another story you heavily covered the 307 00:17:23,280 --> 00:17:26,720 Speaker 1: This is actually earlier this year, there was a horrific 308 00:17:26,800 --> 00:17:32,119 Speaker 1: story of four Idaho students that were brutally murdered in 309 00:17:32,800 --> 00:17:33,399 Speaker 1: their house. 310 00:17:33,600 --> 00:17:34,280 Speaker 2: Yeah. 311 00:17:34,400 --> 00:17:36,320 Speaker 1: Can you tell me about how you first learned about 312 00:17:36,359 --> 00:17:38,200 Speaker 1: that story and what you knew at that point in time. 313 00:17:38,560 --> 00:17:41,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, So it had it happened, and I had heard 314 00:17:41,840 --> 00:17:46,720 Speaker 2: about it, and I was actually on vacation in Mexico 315 00:17:47,359 --> 00:17:49,720 Speaker 2: and I was like following it, like just on my 316 00:17:49,840 --> 00:17:51,920 Speaker 2: phone and really interested in it. And that was another 317 00:17:51,920 --> 00:17:53,680 Speaker 2: one that was like a mystery, which always kind of 318 00:17:53,840 --> 00:17:55,640 Speaker 2: like appeals to me, like, you know, well, where who's 319 00:17:55,640 --> 00:17:57,560 Speaker 2: the where's the killer?

Idaho's like not an 324 00:18:09,440 --> 00:18:12,600 Speaker 2: easy place to get to, so it takes a while 325 00:18:12,640 --> 00:18:14,640 Speaker 2: to get there, especially for Miami. But we went out 326 00:18:14,640 --> 00:18:17,120 Speaker 2: there and that was another one where I didn't really 327 00:18:17,119 --> 00:18:18,640 Speaker 2: know what to expect, but we ended up staying there 328 00:18:18,680 --> 00:18:21,800 Speaker 2: for like I think it was like six weeks two. Yeah, 329 00:18:21,840 --> 00:18:23,639 Speaker 2: and that was cold, I mean opposite, it was like 330 00:18:23,720 --> 00:18:24,240 Speaker 2: cold there. 331 00:18:24,280 --> 00:18:26,600 Speaker 1: I mean, oh yeah we're outside that house, you're up there, 332 00:18:26,640 --> 00:18:27,520 Speaker 1: I guess yeah yeah. 333 00:18:27,600 --> 00:18:31,800 Speaker 2: Yeah. So but just another one that I just quickly 334 00:18:31,840 --> 00:18:34,720 Speaker 2: became like obsessed with, just because like no one knew 335 00:18:34,720 --> 00:18:38,080 Speaker 2: who the killer was. It was just brutal. I mean, yeah, 336 00:18:38,080 --> 00:18:39,600 Speaker 2: it's not like these kids were shot. I mean they 337 00:18:39,600 --> 00:18:41,879 Speaker 2: were all like brutally stabbed in their house while they 338 00:18:41,880 --> 00:18:42,359 Speaker 2: were sleeping. 339 00:18:42,640 --> 00:18:43,520 Speaker 1: How does it even happen? 340 00:18:43,760 --> 00:18:45,800 Speaker 2: And how did how was how did this person get away? 341 00:18:46,000 --> 00:18:49,800 Speaker 1: You know, I mean my first thought was this has 342 00:18:49,840 --> 00:18:51,800 Speaker 1: to be someone who knows them or something. Yeah, I 343 00:18:51,800 --> 00:18:55,080 Speaker 1: mean how is he getting into the house? How was 344 00:18:55,160 --> 00:18:59,879 Speaker 1: he murdering four people with a knife? Yeah, and just 345 00:19:00,280 --> 00:19:01,440 Speaker 1: walking out the front door? 346 00:19:01,720 --> 00:19:02,240 Speaker 2: Yeah? 347 00:19:02,520 --> 00:19:05,280 Speaker 1: What was your first take on who the suspect could 348 00:19:05,280 --> 00:19:06,920 Speaker 1: be before we learned anything different? 349 00:19:07,080 --> 00:19:08,879 Speaker 2: I mean, the police on that one, it was it 350 00:19:08,920 --> 00:19:11,240 Speaker 2: was frustrating because the police were so tight lipped, like 351 00:19:11,280 --> 00:19:12,720 Speaker 2: it was just you know, kind of a small town 352 00:19:12,720 --> 00:19:15,760 Speaker 2: police department. They gave some press conferences in the beginning, 353 00:19:15,760 --> 00:19:18,359 Speaker 2: but then they just like shut down, so we didn't 354 00:19:18,400 --> 00:19:20,440 Speaker 2: really know what to think. I mean, honestly, I had 355 00:19:20,440 --> 00:19:22,480 Speaker 2: no idea who it was. There was no like little 356 00:19:22,520 --> 00:19:25,359 Speaker 2: tidbits of information. Then we slowly started to get things 357 00:19:25,359 --> 00:19:28,520 Speaker 2: looking for the Hyundai Elantra. They put out the picture 358 00:19:28,520 --> 00:19:31,760 Speaker 2: of that. But you know, we were just banging on 359 00:19:31,800 --> 00:19:34,000 Speaker 2: doors every day trying to figure out. You know, these 360 00:19:34,240 --> 00:19:36,920 Speaker 2: girls were popular girls, you know, did they have a stalker? 361 00:19:37,119 --> 00:19:39,399 Speaker 2: Like we we were, you know, trying to trying to 362 00:19:39,400 --> 00:19:40,000 Speaker 2: figure it out. 363 00:19:40,359 --> 00:19:42,679 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean to me, it seemed like it was 364 00:19:42,720 --> 00:19:46,440 Speaker 1: either someone who knew them because it was so personal, yeah, 365 00:19:47,200 --> 00:19:50,320 Speaker 1: or it was a complete stranger who just chose to 366 00:19:50,359 --> 00:19:54,399 Speaker 1: do this one time. Yeah, that being the least likely scenario. 367 00:19:55,040 --> 00:19:57,439 Speaker 1: But you know, if the suspect they have did it, 368 00:19:57,800 --> 00:20:00,280 Speaker 1: then that is which might be. You know, tell you 369 00:20:00,359 --> 00:20:04,480 Speaker 1: why it would be so complex to solve or pin 370 00:20:04,600 --> 00:20:06,040 Speaker 1: that guy down. Yeah, it was. 371 00:20:06,040 --> 00:20:08,040 Speaker 2: Weird and a lot of people in the beginning thought 372 00:20:08,040 --> 00:20:10,879 Speaker 2: it was someone who knew the victims because usually like 373 00:20:10,920 --> 00:20:12,639 Speaker 2: it is like it's someone that you know, is in 374 00:20:12,680 --> 00:20:15,399 Speaker 2: the circle or whatever, and it's it's looking back, I mean, 375 00:20:15,400 --> 00:20:17,399 Speaker 2: it's it's sad, like especially on social media, like there 376 00:20:17,400 --> 00:20:20,119 Speaker 2: were so many people and names were used, like the 377 00:20:20,119 --> 00:20:20,640 Speaker 2: people who. 378 00:20:20,560 --> 00:20:23,879 Speaker 1: Thought just singer pointing and and like there was this 379 00:20:23,920 --> 00:20:27,520 Speaker 1: one neighbor dude who like gave his DNA that like 380 00:20:27,600 --> 00:20:29,439 Speaker 1: went to the place like can I please give my DNA? 381 00:20:29,480 --> 00:20:31,040 Speaker 2: Like no one will leave me alone?

Kaylee's boyfriend was there with 392 00:20:56,880 --> 00:20:58,680 Speaker 2: the parents, and I remember being like, oh my god, 393 00:20:58,720 --> 00:21:01,199 Speaker 2: like the boyfriend's here, like and I realized, like the 394 00:21:01,240 --> 00:21:02,840 Speaker 2: parents do not think this guy did. 395 00:21:02,680 --> 00:21:05,800 Speaker 1: It, like right, and yeah, but yeah, But I was like, 396 00:21:05,880 --> 00:21:08,480 Speaker 1: I'm an outsider. I don't know what's going on, but 397 00:21:08,480 --> 00:21:11,280 Speaker 1: they're cool with this. Maybe that tells me something. 398 00:21:11,040 --> 00:21:12,760 Speaker 2: Correct, So I was like, okay, like if they're like 399 00:21:12,880 --> 00:21:15,240 Speaker 2: the boyfriend's here chilling with them, when I'm doing the interview, like, 400 00:21:15,680 --> 00:21:16,720 Speaker 2: I don't think it's the boyfriend. 401 00:21:16,720 --> 00:21:19,760 Speaker 1: So did you leave thinking maybe he was less of 402 00:21:19,800 --> 00:21:20,760 Speaker 1: a suspect that I. 403 00:21:20,720 --> 00:21:23,399 Speaker 2: Did, Yeah, just because I believed I trusted the parents 404 00:21:23,480 --> 00:21:25,679 Speaker 2: intuition on that.

I mean it's like, yeah, I mean, we're humans. 515 00:26:28,920 --> 00:26:31,480 Speaker 1: I mean, you know it is sad, Yeah, exactly, you know, 516 00:26:31,600 --> 00:26:34,240 Speaker 1: I agree, Yeah, you don't have to be some you 517 00:26:34,240 --> 00:26:37,680 Speaker 1: know AI robot. Yeah, and you're almost more biased pretending 518 00:26:37,760 --> 00:26:42,840 Speaker 1: that you don't have emotion. Yeah, you know you're so Yeah, Okay. 519 00:26:43,320 --> 00:26:46,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly so. But yeah, it takes a toll sometimes. 520 00:26:46,480 --> 00:26:49,600 Speaker 1: I think I want to switch gears for a second 521 00:26:49,680 --> 00:26:52,520 Speaker 1: to what I'm selfishly the most excited to talk to 522 00:26:52,560 --> 00:26:55,359 Speaker 1: you about. Okay, and I hope you have at least 523 00:26:55,520 --> 00:26:58,359 Speaker 1: a tidbit of info for me, but I want to 524 00:26:58,400 --> 00:27:04,520 Speaker 1: just break into it by ask you are aliens real? Yeah? 525 00:27:04,520 --> 00:27:06,439 Speaker 2: This is another one that I didn't expect myself to 526 00:27:06,440 --> 00:27:09,440 Speaker 2: get into, like, and never thought i'd be covering UFO 527 00:27:09,560 --> 00:27:12,280 Speaker 2: so much. Look Base And again, this is interesting because 528 00:27:12,280 --> 00:27:13,639 Speaker 2: it's kind of like with the true crime stuff, Like 529 00:27:13,680 --> 00:27:17,360 Speaker 2: I wasn't an alien guy, like, you know, probably three 530 00:27:17,440 --> 00:27:19,480 Speaker 2: months ago, Like I had never done an alien. 531 00:27:19,200 --> 00:27:20,600 Speaker 1: It was not cool back then. No. 532 00:27:20,800 --> 00:27:22,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, So like I'm not, like I really don't have 533 00:27:22,800 --> 00:27:25,760 Speaker 2: like a bias on it, you know, but based on 534 00:27:25,800 --> 00:27:29,280 Speaker 2: everything I've learned, I think there's something out there. I mean, 535 00:27:29,840 --> 00:27:34,320 Speaker 2: I do I think that the government knows something. I mean, 536 00:27:34,520 --> 00:27:39,640 Speaker 2: there's clearly secret programs. What it is, I don't know, right, 537 00:27:39,880 --> 00:27:41,680 Speaker 2: I don't know. I don't know if aliens are real. 538 00:27:41,760 --> 00:27:45,600 Speaker 2: But I think there's I really think there's something out 539 00:27:45,640 --> 00:27:46,760 Speaker 2: there that they that they know. 540 00:27:48,080 --> 00:27:51,680 Speaker 1: Pretty recently, there was a bombshell story that News Nation 541 00:27:51,840 --> 00:27:58,840 Speaker 1: put out David Grush, and it was a ex military 542 00:27:59,000 --> 00:28:05,280 Speaker 1: whistle blower who had some very bizarre, just powerful claims. Yeah, 543 00:28:05,359 --> 00:28:06,640 Speaker 1: what would your take on that whole thing? 544 00:28:07,840 --> 00:28:11,200 Speaker 2: So, you know, he's he's got all the credentials. I mean, 545 00:28:11,200 --> 00:28:14,399 Speaker 2: he had like the highest level of top secret clearance 546 00:28:14,440 --> 00:28:16,760 Speaker 2: because he was, you know, an Intel official. You know, 547 00:28:16,800 --> 00:28:18,680 Speaker 2: he was in the Air Force for a long time. 548 00:28:20,240 --> 00:28:23,640 Speaker 2: You know, he his his representation, his his attorney now 549 00:28:23,680 --> 00:28:27,560 Speaker 2: getting him through this whistleblower process is the former Inspector 550 00:28:27,640 --> 00:28:29,840 Speaker 2: General for the Intel community. So he had like all 551 00:28:29,880 --> 00:28:32,880 Speaker 2: the credential. Like the thing that I was, he wasn't 552 00:28:32,920 --> 00:28:34,600 Speaker 2: just some dude. Yeah, And we like checked all this 553 00:28:34,680 --> 00:28:37,320 Speaker 2: out before we put him on News Nation, and I 554 00:28:37,359 --> 00:28:39,240 Speaker 2: just kept going back to like why would he make 555 00:28:39,280 --> 00:28:39,560 Speaker 2: it up? 556 00:28:39,640 --> 00:28:40,400 Speaker 1: What's the motivation? 557 00:28:40,480 --> 00:28:42,400 Speaker 2: What would the motivation be? And that like that's what 558 00:28:42,440 --> 00:28:44,360 Speaker 2: you do with all stories, right, like, because there's not 559 00:28:44,400 --> 00:28:46,760 Speaker 2: always proof when you go interview somebody, but you just 560 00:28:46,800 --> 00:28:49,160 Speaker 2: have to in your mind think, like, you know, are 561 00:28:49,200 --> 00:28:51,040 Speaker 2: they trying to play me? Is there a reason they 562 00:28:51,040 --> 00:28:53,800 Speaker 2: would be lying. And it's not just David Grush. I 563 00:28:53,840 --> 00:28:57,240 Speaker 2: mean a lot of other high level people have come forward, 564 00:28:57,360 --> 00:28:59,560 Speaker 2: not all of them publicly at this point, but like, 565 00:29:00,080 --> 00:29:04,000 Speaker 2: these are the people who we who our government has 566 00:29:04,120 --> 00:29:08,160 Speaker 2: told the biggest secrets to, and they've admitted that. I mean, 567 00:29:08,200 --> 00:29:10,160 Speaker 2: like they have the highest level clearance. They check into 568 00:29:10,200 --> 00:29:12,960 Speaker 2: their background as much as possible, they do psychological tests. 569 00:29:13,200 --> 00:29:15,800 Speaker 2: So like, if they're trusting them with that clearance, like, 570 00:29:15,800 --> 00:29:17,800 Speaker 2: why shouldn't we trust them now with what they're saying? 571 00:29:18,000 --> 00:29:18,200 Speaker 1: Right? 572 00:29:18,320 --> 00:29:20,080 Speaker 2: At least that's the way I've been thinking about it, 573 00:29:20,120 --> 00:29:22,240 Speaker 2: you know, I Mean I'm a skeptical too of some things, 574 00:29:22,320 --> 00:29:24,920 Speaker 2: but sure, but I think it's worthy of us talking about. 575 00:29:25,320 --> 00:29:29,320 Speaker 1: Could you just summarize, just on a basic premise, what 576 00:29:29,400 --> 00:29:30,320 Speaker 1: his claims were. 577 00:29:31,280 --> 00:29:35,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, So he claims that the US government has a 578 00:29:35,440 --> 00:29:39,840 Speaker 2: secret crash retrieval program and that for decades they have 579 00:29:40,160 --> 00:29:46,920 Speaker 2: had the secret program that has retrieved crashed spacecraft essentially. Now, 580 00:29:47,040 --> 00:29:49,960 Speaker 2: is it like the movies where it's Little Green Men 581 00:29:50,080 --> 00:29:53,080 Speaker 2: and you know, Saucer. Maybe it is, but he won't 582 00:29:53,080 --> 00:29:55,960 Speaker 2: give details because of all this classification stuff. But you know, 583 00:29:56,160 --> 00:29:58,600 Speaker 2: is it just weird metals? That they found that don't 584 00:29:58,680 --> 00:30:01,680 Speaker 2: register on the periodic table. That's a possibility, but he 585 00:30:01,720 --> 00:30:05,040 Speaker 2: says there is this program where they have this technology 586 00:30:05,080 --> 00:30:08,640 Speaker 2: and that they've been trying to replicate it, uh to 587 00:30:08,640 --> 00:30:11,200 Speaker 2: to you know, increase our to use within our like 588 00:30:11,280 --> 00:30:14,880 Speaker 2: defense department, you know, within the military, try to replicate 589 00:30:14,880 --> 00:30:18,400 Speaker 2: the technology for defense, and that other countries are also 590 00:30:18,880 --> 00:30:21,960 Speaker 2: doing the same thing, and that they're sort of like 591 00:30:22,000 --> 00:30:24,760 Speaker 2: this secret Cold War happening to try to try to 592 00:30:24,800 --> 00:30:27,560 Speaker 2: replicate that technology. That's essentially what he says. 593 00:30:27,880 --> 00:30:31,480 Speaker 1: But it wasn't just craft, right, it was also claims 594 00:30:31,520 --> 00:30:34,480 Speaker 1: of bodies some sort calls. 595 00:30:34,360 --> 00:30:37,160 Speaker 2: Them biologics, which again it's like you could say bodies 596 00:30:37,200 --> 00:30:40,080 Speaker 2: and he won't clarify. Is it just you know, I 597 00:30:40,080 --> 00:30:42,400 Speaker 2: don't know what I mean, goop on these metals that 598 00:30:42,440 --> 00:30:46,280 Speaker 2: they found that have you know, DNA or something. Right, 599 00:30:46,560 --> 00:30:49,080 Speaker 2: that's possible, but we don't. Yeah, he says, he calls 600 00:30:49,080 --> 00:30:51,880 Speaker 2: it biologics that that I've come along with some of 601 00:30:51,880 --> 00:30:52,960 Speaker 2: these crashed craft. 602 00:30:53,480 --> 00:30:56,280 Speaker 1: I mean, obviously this isn't an extraordinary claim. 603 00:30:56,360 --> 00:30:58,920 Speaker 2: It is, yeah, it's it's yeah, like with some of 604 00:30:58,920 --> 00:31:00,640 Speaker 2: my colleagues that were like, if this this is all true, 605 00:31:00,680 --> 00:31:02,800 Speaker 2: like this is like the biggest story. Like we're just 606 00:31:02,840 --> 00:31:04,720 Speaker 2: like doing this story, like we kind of came out 607 00:31:04,720 --> 00:31:06,400 Speaker 2: of like any other story, you know, like we're trying 608 00:31:06,400 --> 00:31:08,000 Speaker 2: to vet in, we're trying to stand And then I'm like, 609 00:31:08,000 --> 00:31:08,880 Speaker 2: wait a minute. 610 00:31:08,560 --> 00:31:13,200 Speaker 1: The implications here pretty big, crazy, you know, like yeah, yeah, 611 00:31:13,840 --> 00:31:17,840 Speaker 1: you know, and he didn't have all of the physical 612 00:31:17,880 --> 00:31:21,560 Speaker 1: evidence that you'd want to see or go through to 613 00:31:21,640 --> 00:31:24,760 Speaker 1: back those claims up, right, Yeah, But he does say 614 00:31:24,800 --> 00:31:27,960 Speaker 1: that he has dozens or more. I think he's said 615 00:31:28,000 --> 00:31:32,440 Speaker 1: almost forty different people who've told him this stuff. Yeah, 616 00:31:32,480 --> 00:31:36,360 Speaker 1: over time. And I'm starting to think about, Okay, I 617 00:31:36,400 --> 00:31:39,600 Speaker 1: don't think that David rush is lying. I think he 618 00:31:39,720 --> 00:31:44,640 Speaker 1: believes this, yeah, no matter what. So it's either that 619 00:31:45,000 --> 00:31:50,120 Speaker 1: these forty people were telling him lies and gaslighting him 620 00:31:50,440 --> 00:31:53,000 Speaker 1: over a decade or more, which yeah, you know, to 621 00:31:53,080 --> 00:31:57,360 Speaker 1: what ends like I don't understand that fully or it's true, 622 00:31:57,920 --> 00:32:02,440 Speaker 1: And what would be the motivation for them to convince 623 00:32:02,520 --> 00:32:05,800 Speaker 1: this guy of something that is totally bullshit? Right? Right? 624 00:32:05,800 --> 00:32:08,120 Speaker 2: And he says that, you know, he's interviewed all he 625 00:32:08,200 --> 00:32:10,320 Speaker 2: was like doing his own little mini investigation when he 626 00:32:10,320 --> 00:32:12,760 Speaker 2: started to find out about this and started interviewing people 627 00:32:12,800 --> 00:32:15,520 Speaker 2: within the program, and he, like you said, he's got 628 00:32:15,520 --> 00:32:17,200 Speaker 2: a lot of people who he's talked to, and he's 629 00:32:17,240 --> 00:32:21,200 Speaker 2: already brought those people to the Intel community, to you know, 630 00:32:21,280 --> 00:32:24,320 Speaker 2: the Marco Rubios, the people who have this secret access. 631 00:32:25,080 --> 00:32:27,160 Speaker 2: So a lot more people have talked than we realize. 632 00:32:27,840 --> 00:32:29,880 Speaker 2: But yeah, it just goes back to like we's their motivation. 633 00:32:30,240 --> 00:32:32,920 Speaker 2: And when we interview skeptics, a lot of them say 634 00:32:32,920 --> 00:32:36,000 Speaker 2: what you just said, like they actually they don't believe 635 00:32:36,200 --> 00:32:38,440 Speaker 2: David Gresh's story, but they also don't think he's lying. 636 00:32:38,560 --> 00:32:40,880 Speaker 2: Like they wonder like, is this some kind of plant 637 00:32:41,280 --> 00:32:44,360 Speaker 2: to distract us from something else that he's been told. 638 00:32:44,280 --> 00:32:48,400 Speaker 1: Right, or he was told this, yeah, to eventually say 639 00:32:48,400 --> 00:32:51,120 Speaker 1: it to discredit something or I don't even know what 640 00:32:51,160 --> 00:32:52,400 Speaker 1: the end game there would. 641 00:32:52,160 --> 00:32:54,920 Speaker 2: Be, right, And you can go down a real rabbit hole.

And I found, like, I mean, obviously what 664 00:33:57,400 --> 00:33:59,120 Speaker 2: Grush had had said to us in the interview and 665 00:33:59,160 --> 00:34:01,560 Speaker 2: said to Congress was like kind of the most like juicy, 666 00:34:02,040 --> 00:34:04,320 Speaker 2: But I found like what the other what the pilot 667 00:34:04,440 --> 00:34:08,520 Speaker 2: said to be like almost like crazier, because here you 668 00:34:08,880 --> 00:34:11,480 Speaker 2: had evidence like the tic TAC video that the Pentagon 669 00:34:11,560 --> 00:34:14,359 Speaker 2: ended up releasing themselves, and here again you got these 670 00:34:14,400 --> 00:34:16,960 Speaker 2: like F eighteen pilots, and David FRAVERR Was saying like 671 00:34:17,120 --> 00:34:19,400 Speaker 2: he's also like not into UFOs, you know, like he 672 00:34:19,440 --> 00:34:21,759 Speaker 2: didn't want to be sitting there, Like why would they 673 00:34:21,760 --> 00:34:23,680 Speaker 2: be making it up? Not to mention there is video, 674 00:34:23,880 --> 00:34:26,960 Speaker 2: Like there's real video of this stuff released by the government. 675 00:34:27,360 --> 00:34:29,799 Speaker 2: So like even if you don't believe David Grush, like 676 00:34:29,880 --> 00:34:31,560 Speaker 2: it's hard not to believe those pilots. 677 00:34:31,719 --> 00:34:34,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, if you're a Navy pilot who flies 678 00:34:34,760 --> 00:34:38,600 Speaker 1: you know, pretty much the most badass machines we have 679 00:34:38,760 --> 00:34:42,640 Speaker 1: to date, and that person's telling you that they saw 680 00:34:42,719 --> 00:34:46,640 Speaker 1: something in the sky that spooked them because it shouldn't 681 00:34:46,680 --> 00:34:50,719 Speaker 1: be there, or it's something that they cannot comprehend what 682 00:34:50,800 --> 00:34:55,120 Speaker 1: it was. I tend to want to believe them. I don't, 683 00:34:55,160 --> 00:34:57,120 Speaker 1: you know, I think that, you know, unless they were 684 00:34:57,239 --> 00:34:59,880 Speaker 1: just seeing stuff all the time, which doesn't seem. 685 00:34:59,640 --> 00:35:02,360 Speaker 2: Like when there's a case, I mean there's there's a video, yeah, 686 00:35:02,480 --> 00:35:04,160 Speaker 2: and they were told not to talk about it, and 687 00:35:04,239 --> 00:35:05,560 Speaker 2: like you know, there's other people who say, you know, 688 00:35:05,640 --> 00:35:10,080 Speaker 2: stuff was erased afterwards, and there's there's something going on, 689 00:35:10,360 --> 00:35:12,920 Speaker 2: Like there's just there's just no way, there's not that 690 00:35:12,960 --> 00:35:16,560 Speaker 2: the government knows something. And I think that that they're 691 00:35:16,640 --> 00:35:18,120 Speaker 2: just you know, they're keeping it a secret. 692 00:35:18,200 --> 00:35:20,520 Speaker 1: And when you say the government. You know, I feel 693 00:35:20,520 --> 00:35:23,680 Speaker 1: like there's been a trope with you know, UFO lore 694 00:35:23,800 --> 00:35:26,840 Speaker 1: for so long where it's you know, the government knows 695 00:35:26,880 --> 00:35:30,600 Speaker 1: and they have alien bodies at Area fifty one or whatever. Yeah, 696 00:35:30,640 --> 00:35:33,400 Speaker 1: and it's this idea of you know, the government as 697 00:35:33,480 --> 00:35:36,960 Speaker 1: some big thing that's working in Unison, which right, clearly 698 00:35:36,960 --> 00:35:39,319 Speaker 1: we've learned that's not how it goes. Yeah, and so 699 00:35:39,440 --> 00:35:43,200 Speaker 1: I think that there's if it is all true, then 700 00:35:43,280 --> 00:35:46,040 Speaker 1: a lot of these people, maybe most of them, don't 701 00:35:46,040 --> 00:35:48,000 Speaker 1: know if it's true or not, and so it would 702 00:35:48,040 --> 00:35:51,440 Speaker 1: be some you know, department that's hidden somewhere. 703 00:35:51,600 --> 00:35:54,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's what David Grush says, that it's a like 704 00:35:54,080 --> 00:35:57,799 Speaker 2: a dark program, a dark secret program. So basically the 705 00:35:57,840 --> 00:36:00,680 Speaker 2: defense to budget, the defense budget is like it's like 706 00:36:00,719 --> 00:36:03,520 Speaker 2: more than fifty percent I think of our whole federal budget, 707 00:36:04,640 --> 00:36:07,160 Speaker 2: and you know, there's a lot of money that they 708 00:36:07,640 --> 00:36:10,319 Speaker 2: can't explain where it's going, Like everybody knows that they don't. 709 00:36:10,360 --> 00:36:13,040 Speaker 2: You know, it's not like every dollar is accounted for. 710 00:36:13,320 --> 00:36:16,040 Speaker 2: So David Grush claims that you know, within the budget, 711 00:36:16,080 --> 00:36:19,359 Speaker 2: there's there's fat there that goes to fund this, and 712 00:36:19,400 --> 00:36:22,000 Speaker 2: that there's a we don't know which one, but that 713 00:36:22,040 --> 00:36:24,799 Speaker 2: there's a private contractor so not government, like some kind 714 00:36:24,800 --> 00:36:28,960 Speaker 2: of private defense contractor that gets paid to sort of 715 00:36:28,960 --> 00:36:31,480 Speaker 2: handle this and that way, you know, it stays on 716 00:36:31,520 --> 00:36:33,520 Speaker 2: the outside. That's what he says. 717 00:36:33,719 --> 00:36:36,839 Speaker 1: Do you think that if the government definitively said that 718 00:36:37,120 --> 00:36:41,640 Speaker 1: they have scientific proof of extraterrestrial life and they've been 719 00:36:41,680 --> 00:36:45,680 Speaker 1: coming here and for years, and we have these spacecraft 720 00:36:45,760 --> 00:36:49,680 Speaker 1: that are not from Earth, what are the implications do 721 00:36:49,760 --> 00:36:54,280 Speaker 1: you think for just the modern American or just citizen 722 00:36:54,480 --> 00:36:58,239 Speaker 1: in terms of how it may affect the way they 723 00:36:58,320 --> 00:37:01,040 Speaker 1: view the world or they're belief systems. 724 00:37:01,200 --> 00:37:03,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, I've thought a lot about that, Like what if 725 00:37:03,200 --> 00:37:05,000 Speaker 2: the Pentagon just put out a statement and said, yes, 726 00:37:05,040 --> 00:37:08,520 Speaker 2: it's all true, or you know whatever. I'm curious what 727 00:37:08,560 --> 00:37:10,720 Speaker 2: you think, Like I don't know. Life is so crazy 728 00:37:10,760 --> 00:37:12,880 Speaker 2: now and like it all happens so fast, Like you 729 00:37:12,920 --> 00:37:15,600 Speaker 2: just see all this crazy COVID, Yeah care you see 730 00:37:15,640 --> 00:37:17,000 Speaker 2: all this great? Like honestly, like if there was a 731 00:37:17,000 --> 00:37:19,520 Speaker 2: press conference tomorrow and they said, we want to let 732 00:37:19,520 --> 00:37:21,920 Speaker 2: you know that we do have this program and we 733 00:37:21,960 --> 00:37:24,200 Speaker 2: can't get into detail, but we've been studying some of 734 00:37:24,239 --> 00:37:26,759 Speaker 2: these items that have crashed, Like don't you just feel 735 00:37:26,760 --> 00:37:28,439 Speaker 2: like everyone would freak out and then two days later 736 00:37:28,480 --> 00:37:31,160 Speaker 2: it'd be like I really don't think it would be that. 737 00:37:31,360 --> 00:37:33,120 Speaker 2: I mean, it'd be a big deal, but I don't 738 00:37:33,160 --> 00:37:35,600 Speaker 2: think like, you know, the world would stop. 739 00:37:35,920 --> 00:37:36,120 Speaker 1: No. 740 00:37:36,239 --> 00:37:37,920 Speaker 2: I think I think most people are kind of like, yeah, 741 00:37:37,920 --> 00:37:40,120 Speaker 2: there probably are aliens out there, you know, right. 742 00:37:40,239 --> 00:37:43,160 Speaker 1: I feel the same way. I feel like if if 743 00:37:43,200 --> 00:37:45,279 Speaker 1: the President walked out on the White House lawn and 744 00:37:45,840 --> 00:37:48,680 Speaker 1: you know, really showed whatever he needed to to prove 745 00:37:48,840 --> 00:37:52,480 Speaker 1: that et life existed, and they had the proof and 746 00:37:52,520 --> 00:37:55,280 Speaker 1: the evidence of it, Yeah, I think that the American 747 00:37:55,320 --> 00:37:58,120 Speaker 1: public would half of them would say, holy shit, I 748 00:37:58,160 --> 00:38:00,879 Speaker 1: always knew it or that's crazy, and the other half 749 00:38:00,880 --> 00:38:03,960 Speaker 1: would say, nah, that's not true. He's lying. 750 00:38:04,040 --> 00:38:05,560 Speaker 2: Well that's the other thing. They might just not believe 751 00:38:05,560 --> 00:38:07,719 Speaker 2: it and they just for a conspiracy. 752 00:38:07,760 --> 00:38:09,880 Speaker 1: Now, And I'm like, you know, I think we live 753 00:38:09,920 --> 00:38:12,719 Speaker 1: in that time where people I don't agree with it 754 00:38:12,800 --> 00:38:14,520 Speaker 1: just choose to believe what they want to believe. 755 00:38:14,520 --> 00:38:16,759 Speaker 2: There is no truth anymore anyway, Like even if they 756 00:38:16,800 --> 00:38:18,480 Speaker 2: said it, like, some people wouldn't believe it, you know 757 00:38:18,520 --> 00:38:20,600 Speaker 2: what I mean, Like, yeah, so but I don't.

Yeah right, But I 761 00:38:28,840 --> 00:38:33,239 Speaker 1: think that the younger generation, the generation younger than me, 762 00:38:33,760 --> 00:38:35,080 Speaker 1: I think they don't give a shit at all. 763 00:38:35,160 --> 00:38:35,600 Speaker 2: I agree. 764 00:38:35,640 --> 00:38:37,200 Speaker 1: I think if they're just like, yeah, sure, we always 765 00:38:37,239 --> 00:38:38,600 Speaker 1: kind of thought that anyway. 766 00:38:38,320 --> 00:38:40,919 Speaker 2: Yeah right, like let me scroll my Instagram again. 767 00:38:41,080 --> 00:38:43,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, anyway, it's like, yeah, we're going to eat later. 768 00:38:43,239 --> 00:38:46,240 Speaker 2: Correct, Yeah, yeah, exactly that.

I mean when we 773 00:38:55,520 --> 00:38:58,200 Speaker 2: first did the interview with Grush, you know, we did 774 00:38:58,200 --> 00:38:59,799 Speaker 2: the interview and that was one thing. But now you've 775 00:38:59,800 --> 00:39:02,839 Speaker 2: got this guy to congressional hearing under oath. I mean, 776 00:39:02,840 --> 00:39:05,120 Speaker 2: you can go to jail if you lie, and then 777 00:39:05,160 --> 00:39:07,279 Speaker 2: you've got the two pilots with him all saying this 778 00:39:07,480 --> 00:39:10,960 Speaker 2: really crazy stuff and like people accepted it. 779 00:39:11,160 --> 00:39:13,440 Speaker 1: Yeah, and he's put himself a risk there. I mean 780 00:39:13,480 --> 00:39:15,520 Speaker 1: it's you know, he can go to jail if he's 781 00:39:15,800 --> 00:39:18,959 Speaker 1: proven to be a liar there, right, right, right, Yeah, Yeah, 782 00:39:19,000 --> 00:39:23,640 Speaker 1: I just it's just a whole just strange topic that's 783 00:39:23,680 --> 00:39:27,160 Speaker 1: fun to talk about. And you know, my team and 784 00:39:27,400 --> 00:39:31,000 Speaker 1: me especially really enjoyed all the really have been enjoying 785 00:39:31,040 --> 00:39:34,040 Speaker 1: all the news nation coverage of it. And I wanted 786 00:39:34,040 --> 00:39:36,320 Speaker 1: to see if you had an opinion or thought on 787 00:39:37,160 --> 00:39:40,799 Speaker 1: maybe why some of the other larger news networks may 788 00:39:40,840 --> 00:39:43,359 Speaker 1: not report on it as much or as fast or 789 00:39:43,400 --> 00:39:45,719 Speaker 1: as in depth, and if it has something to do 790 00:39:45,800 --> 00:39:51,120 Speaker 1: with maybe just optically how it may be perceived or 791 00:39:51,920 --> 00:39:52,399 Speaker 1: I don't know. 792 00:39:53,080 --> 00:39:54,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, well, first of all, it's been fun 793 00:39:54,520 --> 00:39:56,600 Speaker 2: covering it in an objective way because a lot of 794 00:39:56,600 --> 00:39:58,799 Speaker 2: people like you know, a lot of the UFO podcasters 795 00:39:58,800 --> 00:40:00,920 Speaker 2: and stuff who are cool, but it's like you kind 796 00:40:00,920 --> 00:40:04,680 Speaker 2: of know, like their believers. But yeah, like it's been fun, 797 00:40:04,719 --> 00:40:08,839 Speaker 2: like because the topic hasn't really gotten yeah, and it's 798 00:40:08,920 --> 00:40:10,799 Speaker 2: it's kind of been like it's been, it's been neat 799 00:40:10,800 --> 00:40:12,400 Speaker 2: and a lot of people have been appreciative of it. 800 00:40:12,400 --> 00:40:14,160 Speaker 2: You know, we always have skeptics on and it's not 801 00:40:14,200 --> 00:40:16,759 Speaker 2: like we're just saying it's true, you know. And I've 802 00:40:16,760 --> 00:40:19,160 Speaker 2: thought about, like why the other big networks don't cover it, 803 00:40:19,200 --> 00:40:21,560 Speaker 2: like even the congressional hearings didn't get a lot of 804 00:40:21,600 --> 00:40:25,160 Speaker 2: coverage from like you know, NBC, ABC, CBS. I think, 805 00:40:25,200 --> 00:40:27,719 Speaker 2: I mean, we're startup at News Nation, so you know, 806 00:40:27,719 --> 00:40:30,080 Speaker 2: when your startup, you're looking fryeballs. You're, yeah, going to 807 00:40:30,120 --> 00:40:32,560 Speaker 2: take risks on things, cover thing. The whole idea is 808 00:40:32,600 --> 00:40:34,480 Speaker 2: to cover stuff that other people aren't covering, because why 809 00:40:34,520 --> 00:40:36,600 Speaker 2: would they watch us if you can get it on 810 00:40:36,680 --> 00:40:39,600 Speaker 2: you know, the station you've always been watching. So I 811 00:40:39,600 --> 00:40:42,400 Speaker 2: think we were just willing to do something different, whereas 812 00:40:42,440 --> 00:40:44,440 Speaker 2: like if you're the New York Times or NBC and 813 00:40:44,719 --> 00:40:46,560 Speaker 2: you've got your thing going, like why are you going 814 00:40:46,600 --> 00:40:47,960 Speaker 2: to freak people out about aliens? 815 00:40:48,000 --> 00:40:51,080 Speaker 1: Like let's just you know, yeah and clearly, which that's 816 00:40:51,160 --> 00:40:52,960 Speaker 1: kind of how I perceived it too, where this was 817 00:40:53,000 --> 00:40:54,840 Speaker 1: a this is a risk that you guys are willing 818 00:40:54,840 --> 00:40:56,359 Speaker 1: to take, and I think you guys should take. 819 00:40:56,600 --> 00:40:58,640 Speaker 2: And it was a risk like our bosses, like when 820 00:40:58,680 --> 00:41:01,719 Speaker 2: we did the David Gresh interview, Ross Coltheart actually did 821 00:41:01,719 --> 00:41:04,160 Speaker 2: the interview. I mean we didn't air it for I 822 00:41:04,160 --> 00:41:05,800 Speaker 2: don't know how long it was. It was a while, 823 00:41:06,040 --> 00:41:08,200 Speaker 2: like we're sitting on it, and it was like people 824 00:41:08,200 --> 00:41:09,839 Speaker 2: were like we were sitting on it for a long time, 825 00:41:10,120 --> 00:41:13,560 Speaker 2: just trying to get more documents from him. Yeah, you know, this. 826 00:41:13,640 --> 00:41:15,480 Speaker 1: Was being talked about. This wasn't like, oh my god, 827 00:41:15,520 --> 00:41:17,120 Speaker 1: that's so crazy, let's go tell everybody. 828 00:41:17,160 --> 00:41:20,120 Speaker 2: No, we realized, and like our bosses also realized, like 829 00:41:20,160 --> 00:41:22,560 Speaker 2: we're you know, we're trying to establish credibility as a 830 00:41:22,600 --> 00:41:25,960 Speaker 2: new network. Like we can't just like put this on, 831 00:41:26,080 --> 00:41:28,000 Speaker 2: like people are gonna like, we have to really make 832 00:41:28,040 --> 00:41:30,120 Speaker 2: sure we're not wrong here and this guy isn't crazy, 833 00:41:30,200 --> 00:41:31,560 Speaker 2: or we're done. 834 00:41:32,200 --> 00:41:34,480 Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, And I mean, for what it's worth, it 835 00:41:34,520 --> 00:41:37,120 Speaker 1: hasn't been able to be proven untrue. Yea, yeah. 836 00:41:37,160 --> 00:41:39,640 Speaker 2: I think by now, like we someone would have said 837 00:41:39,719 --> 00:41:42,200 Speaker 2: like something, you know, yeah, hopefully. 838 00:41:44,040 --> 00:41:47,239 Speaker 1: Do you feel like in your lifetime career as a 839 00:41:47,320 --> 00:41:52,279 Speaker 1: reporter that you'll ever be saying the words that we've 840 00:41:52,320 --> 00:41:58,439 Speaker 1: definitively scientifically proven that ET's are real? I kind of do. Yeah, yeah, 841 00:41:58,520 --> 00:42:00,760 Speaker 1: do you I would like if i'd. 842 00:42:02,120 --> 00:42:04,480 Speaker 2: Like some report comes out from NASA on it's like, yeah, 843 00:42:04,520 --> 00:42:05,720 Speaker 2: they've confirmed. 844 00:42:05,239 --> 00:42:08,759 Speaker 1: Hey guys, yeah, the James Webb telescope. Yeah, there's a 845 00:42:08,800 --> 00:42:09,640 Speaker 1: bunch of people over here. 846 00:42:09,760 --> 00:42:13,280 Speaker 2: It wouldn't surprise me, now, yeah, I hope. So, yeah, 847 00:42:13,440 --> 00:42:15,120 Speaker 2: it'd be cool, I think, yeah, I mean it is 848 00:42:15,200 --> 00:42:17,160 Speaker 2: kind of freaky, you know, it's Yeah, it's. 849 00:42:17,000 --> 00:42:19,160 Speaker 1: A little weird. But just because we've always been so 850 00:42:19,280 --> 00:42:21,279 Speaker 1: used to the fact that it's just us. 851 00:42:21,560 --> 00:42:24,120 Speaker 2: I also think there's only so much that we can like, 852 00:42:25,080 --> 00:42:27,200 Speaker 2: I mean, just the way I always think about like ants, Like, 853 00:42:27,640 --> 00:42:30,600 Speaker 2: you know, ants are so small and they can't really 854 00:42:30,640 --> 00:42:32,600 Speaker 2: see us, but we can see them, like I'm sure 855 00:42:32,600 --> 00:42:34,879 Speaker 2: we're the ants for something else. I totally like, there's 856 00:42:34,880 --> 00:42:37,680 Speaker 2: only so much that we can probably see and feel. 857 00:42:37,719 --> 00:42:40,239 Speaker 1: And yeah, I know. I had an analogy very very 858 00:42:40,239 --> 00:42:44,880 Speaker 1: similar in my podcast called High Strange, where you know, 859 00:42:45,040 --> 00:42:48,200 Speaker 1: everyone always has the idea in their head if there's 860 00:42:48,320 --> 00:42:51,120 Speaker 1: aliens that exist, you know, why don't they show themselves? 861 00:42:51,120 --> 00:42:53,279 Speaker 1: Why aren't they talking to us? Yeah, I'm like that 862 00:42:53,320 --> 00:42:56,239 Speaker 1: seems a little narrow minded to me, or a little 863 00:42:56,280 --> 00:42:59,360 Speaker 1: small minded. If you were to take a stroll in 864 00:42:59,440 --> 00:43:02,279 Speaker 1: the wood and you saw an ant hill, you know, 865 00:43:02,320 --> 00:43:04,480 Speaker 1: would you sit down and talk to it or would 866 00:43:04,520 --> 00:43:06,840 Speaker 1: you just say, oh, yeah, that's them, And I'm not 867 00:43:06,840 --> 00:43:08,600 Speaker 1: going to kick the hill over because that's kind of 868 00:43:08,600 --> 00:43:10,919 Speaker 1: fucked up, right, I'm just gonna leave it there. 869 00:43:11,080 --> 00:43:13,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, right, Yeah, they may be so advanced. 870 00:43:13,160 --> 00:43:14,719 Speaker 1: That lets you're on shrooms, is what I said, and 871 00:43:14,719 --> 00:43:18,399 Speaker 1: then maybe you were talking to the you're right though. 872 00:43:18,440 --> 00:43:19,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's a good analogy. 873 00:43:19,600 --> 00:43:22,600 Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, I hope that in our lifetime we definitively 874 00:43:22,920 --> 00:43:27,120 Speaker 1: learned something. But it seems like every couple months now, 875 00:43:27,239 --> 00:43:30,440 Speaker 1: the universe gets bigger and bigger. Yeah, it's, you know, 876 00:43:30,680 --> 00:43:33,160 Speaker 1: way bigger than we thought. We've been around for longer 877 00:43:33,200 --> 00:43:36,759 Speaker 1: than we thought, and there's just so much space and 878 00:43:37,160 --> 00:43:41,319 Speaker 1: potential out there for it to exist. Even just scientifically 879 00:43:41,360 --> 00:43:43,640 Speaker 1: at this point, whether we have the proof or it's 880 00:43:43,680 --> 00:43:46,880 Speaker 1: happened here or not yet, I think science leans towards 881 00:43:46,920 --> 00:43:51,040 Speaker 1: the likelihood of other beings existing out there somewhere in 882 00:43:51,080 --> 00:43:51,600 Speaker 1: the universe. 883 00:43:51,840 --> 00:43:54,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, I thought too, Like so many people talk about 884 00:43:54,160 --> 00:43:56,600 Speaker 2: UFOs again, then there's so many people online. It's like 885 00:43:56,840 --> 00:43:58,920 Speaker 2: it'd be cool to see more actual research time. I 886 00:43:58,920 --> 00:44:01,080 Speaker 2: mean obviously like NASA does it, and there's some people 887 00:44:01,120 --> 00:44:04,399 Speaker 2: at Harvard, but like if they just dump some money 888 00:44:04,400 --> 00:44:06,200 Speaker 2: into this, like we could probably figure it out. 889 00:44:06,360 --> 00:44:10,840 Speaker 1: Yeah. Just in closing, what's next for you and your career? 890 00:44:11,480 --> 00:44:13,080 Speaker 2: Oh gosh, I don't know. I just kind of fly 891 00:44:13,160 --> 00:44:14,120 Speaker 2: by the seat of my pants. 892 00:44:14,160 --> 00:44:17,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, andnestly. Yeah, like I never know that's that's respectable. Yeah, 893 00:44:17,880 --> 00:44:18,399 Speaker 1: pretty similar. 894 00:44:18,600 --> 00:44:20,960 Speaker 2: I mean I wish I like I've never been one, 895 00:44:21,000 --> 00:44:22,880 Speaker 2: Like oh my, I don't like I need more goals, 896 00:44:22,920 --> 00:44:24,799 Speaker 2: I guess, but yeah, just kind of like, you know, 897 00:44:24,800 --> 00:44:27,600 Speaker 2: I'm still covering coburger in Idaho that's gonna go to trial. 898 00:44:28,120 --> 00:44:29,080 Speaker 1: What is that? Do you know? 899 00:44:29,560 --> 00:44:31,920 Speaker 2: It was supposed to happen like this month, but they 900 00:44:31,960 --> 00:44:33,359 Speaker 2: just pushed it off. They don't have a day yet. 901 00:44:33,440 --> 00:44:35,080 Speaker 2: I think it'll be probably a year or more. 902 00:44:35,160 --> 00:44:35,600 Speaker 1: Oh damn. 903 00:44:35,640 --> 00:44:38,880 Speaker 2: Really yeah, so I'll stay on that and just you 904 00:44:38,920 --> 00:44:41,120 Speaker 2: know kind of I do also like I have. That's 905 00:44:41,120 --> 00:44:42,960 Speaker 2: why News Nation is good for me, because it's like 906 00:44:43,000 --> 00:44:45,200 Speaker 2: I'm not in a box like I do all sorts 907 00:44:45,239 --> 00:44:46,719 Speaker 2: of different kinds of stories, you know. 908 00:44:47,080 --> 00:44:49,160 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I wanted to add to every time I 909 00:44:49,200 --> 00:44:53,319 Speaker 1: see h you know, talented reporter like yourself.
