00:00:01.760 --> 00:00:07.360
Welcome to Open Minds Radio with your
host Alejandro Rojas, former official spokesperson for

2
00:00:07.480 --> 00:00:12.800
the Mutual UFO Network. Alejandro who's
been a UFO paranormal researcher and journalists for

3
00:00:12.880 --> 00:00:17.640
nearly a decade and has logged hours
in the field investigating the paranormal up close

4
00:00:17.719 --> 00:00:22.679
and personal, and now Open Minds
Radio presents evidence in the latest news regarding

5
00:00:22.719 --> 00:00:30.199
the UFO phenomenon. Here's your host, Alejandro Rojas. Hello and welcome.

6
00:00:31.039 --> 00:00:36.719
It is Alejandro Rojas with Open Minds
Radio and I am excited today. I'm

7
00:00:36.719 --> 00:00:41.320
always excited for the show, but
we have a wonderful guest tonight that is

8
00:00:41.479 --> 00:00:48.359
Peter Robbins. And one of the
reasons I'm so excited is that the Roswell

9
00:00:48.399 --> 00:00:52.479
Festival is coming up this weekend.
I will be speaking on Friday. That

10
00:00:52.799 --> 00:01:00.240
is Roswell, New Mexico, and
they have a festival every year during the

11
00:01:00.240 --> 00:01:06.560
fourth of July weekend in order to
in the anniversary of the alleged crash of

12
00:01:06.599 --> 00:01:10.719
the UFO out there. So I'm
excited. I'm gonna be talking about Roswell's

13
00:01:10.719 --> 00:01:18.439
cultural impacts to our culture and actual
international culture. So I'll be going over

14
00:01:18.519 --> 00:01:21.599
some of Roswell and media and stuff
like that, and I've been working on

15
00:01:21.640 --> 00:01:25.000
the talk and I'm excited to deliver
it. I've got lots of cool clips

16
00:01:25.000 --> 00:01:30.280
of movies and stuff like that.
But Peter is putting together at Roswell Festival

17
00:01:30.480 --> 00:01:36.280
all by himself. Actually it's the
whole city of Roswell and even some new

18
00:01:36.319 --> 00:01:40.840
Mexico Visitor Bureau fund to help out. So he's not doing it all by

19
00:01:40.920 --> 00:01:46.040
himself, but he could if he
wanted to. He is that impressive of

20
00:01:46.040 --> 00:01:51.439
a little fella. He has done
a lot of research also on the Rendelsham

21
00:01:51.599 --> 00:01:55.239
Forest case. In fact, he
wrote a book with Larry Warren that was

22
00:01:55.280 --> 00:02:00.480
a best seller called Left at Eastgate
and Rendal Sham. We've talked about James

23
00:02:00.519 --> 00:02:06.079
Peniston on and this was a UFO
that had invaded the space of an American

24
00:02:06.120 --> 00:02:09.879
base we were actually leasing out there
in the UK, the Bentwaters Air Force

25
00:02:09.960 --> 00:02:14.599
Base. So an exciting case that
Peter is a part of it. It's

26
00:02:14.639 --> 00:02:20.680
the thirty annivers thirtieth anniversary of that
event this year, so hopefully we'll be

27
00:02:20.800 --> 00:02:27.039
doing something cool with some of those
witnesses later this year, but if not,

28
00:02:27.680 --> 00:02:32.000
at least our next magazine. The
fourth issue of Open Minds Magazine,

29
00:02:32.039 --> 00:02:39.000
which we are getting ready for,
will mostly highlight the Rendelsham Forest incident.

30
00:02:39.199 --> 00:02:45.960
Extremely exciting, and I know that
people who have read our first two issues

31
00:02:46.000 --> 00:02:50.759
are just jumping up and down with
joy out of excitement. They're probably there's

32
00:02:50.960 --> 00:02:54.000
growing men out there jumping up and
down and giggling like little girls. I

33
00:02:54.080 --> 00:02:58.879
know it out there, which is
great. Thank you for your excitement,

34
00:02:59.120 --> 00:03:01.360
and thank you for every one who's
given us a lot of great feedback on

35
00:03:01.400 --> 00:03:07.680
our magazine. I notice there's a
guy in the chat who there's a pretty

36
00:03:07.680 --> 00:03:10.840
cool dude, and he used to
come into our chats before the profit Jackal.

37
00:03:10.919 --> 00:03:15.479
He calls himself now, but Jackal
does his own show. Thanks for

38
00:03:15.560 --> 00:03:19.159
coming back, Jackal. He's a
cool guy. I wanted to say hello.

39
00:03:20.080 --> 00:03:23.400
We'll be saying hello to some other
friends that we'll be calling in to

40
00:03:23.439 --> 00:03:27.400
talk to Peter as well later.
So I'm really excited about Roswell Come Out.

41
00:03:27.759 --> 00:03:32.360
It starts on Thursday this Thursday and
it goes through the weekend. They

42
00:03:32.400 --> 00:03:39.719
have an excellent fireworks display and you
heard from Pete Paul David's last week who

43
00:03:40.000 --> 00:03:44.840
has a movie about Rosweld he's gonna
be showing that, and he's gonna be

44
00:03:44.840 --> 00:03:50.120
showing his new narrative movie as well. That's gonna be really exciting. So

45
00:03:50.159 --> 00:03:54.599
it's just gonna be a good time
and you'll be able to see that reflected

46
00:03:54.680 --> 00:04:00.240
in our excitement when me and Peter
talk later today. However, before we

47
00:04:00.319 --> 00:04:05.520
get to that. On our excellent
website Open mindstat TV, we do UFO

48
00:04:05.759 --> 00:04:12.039
News, so we're always highlighting on
a practically daily basis the news items that

49
00:04:12.080 --> 00:04:16.600
are out there in conventional media all
across the world. And every week we

50
00:04:16.680 --> 00:04:23.600
bring our news correspondent, Jason McClellan
to let us in on what's going on.

51
00:04:23.800 --> 00:04:28.920
Jason, what you got for us, buddy for reading Zolohandro Hello,

52
00:04:29.000 --> 00:04:31.680
Phoenix said, hello world. This
is your Open Minds News brief for Monday,

53
00:04:31.800 --> 00:04:38.199
June twenty eighth, twenty ten.
A crop circle appeared in a field

54
00:04:38.439 --> 00:04:43.480
in Wiltshire, England last week during
the summer solstice. The summer solstice is

55
00:04:44.000 --> 00:04:47.040
traditionally a time of peace and love, so this crop circle is all the

56
00:04:47.079 --> 00:04:50.560
more interesting because it appeared in the
field that is near a wooded area,

57
00:04:50.680 --> 00:04:55.399
in the shape of a heart.
People flocked to see the formation, but

58
00:04:55.519 --> 00:04:59.959
the farm's manager, who viewed the
croft circle as vandalism, quickly posted a

59
00:05:00.079 --> 00:05:04.240
methods on a crop circle enthusiast's website
encouraging people to stay away from his field.

60
00:05:04.439 --> 00:05:09.680
The farms manager said he will be
posting signs and regularly monitoring the field

61
00:05:09.680 --> 00:05:13.199
to make sure that people will stay
away from his crops and make sure they

62
00:05:13.199 --> 00:05:17.319
don't get trampled, a common complaint
from those who have fields on which crop

63
00:05:17.360 --> 00:05:24.199
circles appear. Another crop circle appeared
in England last week in a field near

64
00:05:24.319 --> 00:05:30.519
Inkpen. Hundreds of crop circle enthusiasts
from all over Europe flocked to see the

65
00:05:30.560 --> 00:05:34.360
design. Some claimed the circle gave
them healing powers, while others claim to

66
00:05:34.360 --> 00:05:38.879
have found a crystal in the middle
of the crop circle. However, someone

67
00:05:38.879 --> 00:05:43.439
who lives near the field suspects this
particular circle was made by humans because he

68
00:05:43.480 --> 00:05:46.240
claims he can see where someone put
a peg in the middle and walked around

69
00:05:46.240 --> 00:05:50.120
with the board. That could certainly
be the case, but it could also

70
00:05:50.160 --> 00:05:54.839
be his way of downplaying the mystery
of the crop circle to get rid of

71
00:05:54.839 --> 00:05:59.600
the hundreds of people congregating near his
home. Generally, scientists have avoided getting

72
00:05:59.600 --> 00:06:03.000
involved with crop circles for fear of
being ridiculed, but those who have scientifically

73
00:06:03.079 --> 00:06:09.560
studied the mysterious formations are still puzzled
by them. Scientific research has shown that

74
00:06:09.600 --> 00:06:15.199
the crops in some formations have been
superheated, causing stems to causing steam to

75
00:06:15.240 --> 00:06:18.279
blow holes in the stem nodes,
which could indicate the use of microwave radiation

76
00:06:18.439 --> 00:06:24.240
and the creation process. Very varying
theories have been put forward, ranging from

77
00:06:24.279 --> 00:06:30.319
the testing and calibration of secret military
weapons, to weather phenomena like ball lightning

78
00:06:30.519 --> 00:06:34.000
and vortices of air and heat,
and of course UFOs. These are theories,

79
00:06:34.000 --> 00:06:40.000
though, and science remains puzzled by
the phenomenon. It's exciting to see

80
00:06:40.040 --> 00:06:43.439
that story about the science of crop
circles because those are always exciting. We

81
00:06:43.519 --> 00:06:47.360
have Nancy talban On who is pretty
much the authority when it comes to crop

82
00:06:47.399 --> 00:06:50.839
circle science, and my humble opinion, because she's got that she follows it

83
00:06:50.920 --> 00:06:56.319
so closely, and you know,
it's hard to explain some of those things.

84
00:06:56.319 --> 00:07:00.519
And already it's always exciting when it
comes around to the summertime because that's

85
00:07:00.519 --> 00:07:09.879
the crop circle season in England and
today that crop circle that they that hit

86
00:07:09.959 --> 00:07:15.120
the news was impressive. There's two
hundred separate circles inside of this giant crop

87
00:07:15.160 --> 00:07:20.240
circle design. H They're really incredible. I've never been inside one, but

88
00:07:20.279 --> 00:07:27.079
I've heard it's just remarkable to actually
walk a crop circle and experience just how

89
00:07:27.279 --> 00:07:31.439
massive they are and intricate the designs
are. It's really cool. And you're

90
00:07:31.480 --> 00:07:35.199
right. The one that appeared today
or whenever it appeared, was quite large

91
00:07:35.279 --> 00:07:40.199
and the picture shows it next to
some woods and yeah, just massive.

92
00:07:40.519 --> 00:07:43.000
Yeah, well, we're gonna have
to go check out the crop circles.

93
00:07:43.199 --> 00:07:45.759
Let's do it. Go with a
Well, we've got a lot of buddies.

94
00:07:46.160 --> 00:07:48.560
Barbara Lamb goes out every year.
I think him Moussana is our buddy

95
00:07:48.680 --> 00:07:50.839
goes out. So we got a
lot of friends we can go with.

96
00:07:51.120 --> 00:07:54.439
Well, we've got to make sure
we don't go where this guy has designs

97
00:07:54.480 --> 00:07:59.199
posted. He's pretty angry. Yeah, we'll avoid that. Well. In

98
00:07:59.240 --> 00:08:03.480
other news, that witness and Oklahoma
reported seeing a burning, elongated object with

99
00:08:03.560 --> 00:08:09.199
white flashing lights heading over the horizon
last Monday night. Because of its trajectory

100
00:08:11.079 --> 00:08:13.399
and because the object appeared to be
on fire, the witness was sure the

101
00:08:13.560 --> 00:08:18.079
flying object had crashed. Thirty six
square miles were searched from the air and

102
00:08:18.160 --> 00:08:24.839
on land, but crews found no
wreckage, and Pottawami County authorities have called

103
00:08:24.879 --> 00:08:28.600
off the search that yet because they
said there was no crash, there was

104
00:08:28.639 --> 00:08:33.679
no radar of anything there, and
there was no plane they knew of being

105
00:08:33.720 --> 00:08:37.759
in the area. But this guy
definitely says he saw something. So that's

106
00:08:37.759 --> 00:08:41.279
why I thought it was a good
UFO story, because what the heck was

107
00:08:41.279 --> 00:08:46.440
this sing? Well, and it's
also interesting that they would actually spend the

108
00:08:46.480 --> 00:08:52.720
manpower to go out and search if
it was just based off of one person's

109
00:08:54.159 --> 00:08:58.559
call I saw something go down,
you know that happens those calls. They

110
00:08:58.559 --> 00:09:01.600
get called like that all the time. Well, we haven't heard anything about

111
00:09:01.639 --> 00:09:03.320
it. We didn't see anything on
the radar. Yeah, that's nice.

112
00:09:03.519 --> 00:09:07.440
But the fact that they allocated the
time and the manpower to go out and

113
00:09:07.519 --> 00:09:13.480
search this area, it's kind of
fishy. Must have been a respected person

114
00:09:13.519 --> 00:09:16.480
in the community and he must have
been adamant about what he saw. It's

115
00:09:16.480 --> 00:09:20.080
fascinating. I hope we hear more
about it. Yeah, it's kind of

116
00:09:20.080 --> 00:09:22.399
cool that this flaming object would go
down and there's no trace of it,

117
00:09:22.679 --> 00:09:28.879
yeah, exactly. And our sighting
for the week comes from Saratoga County,

118
00:09:28.879 --> 00:09:33.320
New York, where our witness captured
a silent, white cigar shaped UFO on

119
00:09:33.440 --> 00:09:39.159
video. The object was seen during
the day and was flying at an estimated

120
00:09:39.200 --> 00:09:43.600
altitude of five hundred feet. The
witness claims that a small plane was following

121
00:09:43.600 --> 00:09:46.600
the object, but in the outer
focus video, I didn't see a small

122
00:09:46.639 --> 00:09:50.480
plane, but that doesn't necessarily mean
it wasn't there. The video is extremely

123
00:09:50.519 --> 00:09:54.679
poor quality, but still it's interesting
to watch the unidentifiable object move through the

124
00:09:54.720 --> 00:09:58.240
sky. Yeah. And it's neat
too, you know. I always think

125
00:09:58.279 --> 00:10:03.919
it's exciting when conventional media takes he
things serious, you know, and post

126
00:10:05.039 --> 00:10:07.759
the video. Yeah, like this
one did. They weren't making fun of

127
00:10:07.799 --> 00:10:11.240
it or anything. I mean,
they must have been moved by this video

128
00:10:11.799 --> 00:10:16.480
themselves and they put it up and
it is an interesting video. But videos

129
00:10:16.480 --> 00:10:22.039
these days are so difficult because anything
can be created on video, which of

130
00:10:22.080 --> 00:10:26.679
course we see that in our movies
every day. But there was a story.

131
00:10:26.759 --> 00:10:30.519
Of course I didn't really post it
because it was hoaxing. But this

132
00:10:30.559 --> 00:10:35.360
guy called the UFO hoaxer, and
he doesn't like to actually make people think

133
00:10:35.399 --> 00:10:37.840
that his videos are real. He
puts on there, really big, this

134
00:10:39.000 --> 00:10:41.759
is not real. This is just
my own CGI little project, and he

135
00:10:41.840 --> 00:10:46.840
does he's at home for fun and
they look amazing, they look incredible,

136
00:10:46.120 --> 00:10:50.360
and a lot of people get fulled. And it's funny with Ell even say,

137
00:10:50.399 --> 00:10:52.720
oh, I don't care if you
are saying that you created this.

138
00:10:52.879 --> 00:10:56.879
I think this is real, which
frustrates him because he doesn't want to be,

139
00:10:58.080 --> 00:11:01.039
you know, tricking people. He
just wants to highlight his CGI skills,

140
00:11:01.039 --> 00:11:07.080
which are incredible. And even the
videos you know that CGI inside you

141
00:11:07.120 --> 00:11:11.200
have the most basic, crappy video. Yeah, you know, I think

142
00:11:11.639 --> 00:11:15.519
a lot of people see what they
want to see. You know, if

143
00:11:15.519 --> 00:11:18.519
you have an out of focused video
where there's an object in the sky,

144
00:11:18.679 --> 00:11:22.159
it could be anything. Yeah,
but you know, there's so many videos

145
00:11:22.240 --> 00:11:28.080
that are captured spur of the moment
that are remarkable things in the sky that

146
00:11:28.240 --> 00:11:33.480
have no explanation. But just judging
by the video, if we weren't there,

147
00:11:33.600 --> 00:11:37.120
we can't really tell what it was. Yeah, exactly, so everybody.

148
00:11:37.360 --> 00:11:41.360
That's why people have a hard time
with the people who have this evidence,

149
00:11:41.759 --> 00:11:43.679
because unless you're there, you don't
really believe people because you can't tell

150
00:11:45.000 --> 00:11:48.159
yep, people say, where's the
video, where's the photos? They're out

151
00:11:48.200 --> 00:11:52.080
there, but just that's not enough
anymore. Right, the bar is raised

152
00:11:52.159 --> 00:11:54.759
and we need more than that.
Well, in every video, people want

153
00:11:54.799 --> 00:11:58.519
tripods. I don't always have a
tripod with me, and I understand that

154
00:11:58.639 --> 00:12:01.840
problem. But they don't have iPhone
tripods yet, iPhone trifons. That's coming.

155
00:12:01.879 --> 00:12:05.720
So right, that's it for the
news. Remember to check out these

156
00:12:05.720 --> 00:12:09.320
stories and more at openminds dot tv, your source for UFO related news.

157
00:12:09.559 --> 00:12:13.200
I'm your Open Minds News correspondent Jason
McClellan, and you've been briefed back to

158
00:12:13.240 --> 00:12:16.480
you, Alejandro. All right,
thank you, Jason. I wanted to

159
00:12:16.519 --> 00:12:20.399
mention a couple of cool stories that
we had on our website before we go

160
00:12:20.480 --> 00:12:24.519
to break here, a couple of
stories where we kind of broke the story

161
00:12:24.559 --> 00:12:28.759
we got there. First. First, the European Union, one of their

162
00:12:28.759 --> 00:12:35.320
parliamentarians has actually asked and you put
through a bill for them to well,

163
00:12:35.320 --> 00:12:37.720
I don't know if they call them
bills, but essentially a request for all

164
00:12:37.759 --> 00:12:43.600
of the countries related to the EU
to release their UFO information and to make

165
00:12:43.720 --> 00:12:48.639
one unit that investigates UFOs, so
really interesting. That'd be great if the

166
00:12:48.639 --> 00:12:52.240
European Union did that. Of course
Britain has released files and things like that.

167
00:12:52.720 --> 00:12:56.919
Also a story that we released was
Mariccio Bayada, who of course you

168
00:12:56.960 --> 00:13:01.919
guys know, has looked into course
and did a lot of interviews with Corso

169
00:13:01.960 --> 00:13:07.600
back in Italy, and he released
found some video that showed Courso saying he

170
00:13:07.679 --> 00:13:11.480
had talked to Bobby Kennedy about UFOs
and he believes Bobby talked to his brother

171
00:13:11.559 --> 00:13:16.000
about UFOs. So those are some
great stories we have up at Openminds dot

172
00:13:16.039 --> 00:13:20.120
Tv. When we come back,
we'll talk to Peter Robbins about Roswell,

173
00:13:20.200 --> 00:13:33.480
so stay tuned. Open Minds Production

to Open Minds Radio with Alejandro Rojas
on KFNX News Talk Radio eleven hundred.

183
00:14:11.919 --> 00:14:15.480
Hello and welcome back. This is
Alejandro Rojas, and you know what I

184
00:14:15.519 --> 00:14:18.519
was thinking. I said a couple
of things about one of the guys that's

185
00:14:18.519 --> 00:14:20.000
in the chat, and he's a
good guy, but I should mention a

186
00:14:20.039 --> 00:14:26.120
couple of the other regulars paranormal guys, thanks for joining us, and also

187
00:14:26.240 --> 00:14:31.279
my good buddy STS drug and that
guy's kind of crazy. So if you

188
00:14:31.320 --> 00:14:35.159
want to see some of the crazy
stuff that he types and the chat log

189
00:14:35.279 --> 00:14:39.759
in and that this is actually the
blog chot Chat which Paranormal Guys has a

190
00:14:39.879 --> 00:14:43.440
radio show, so does Jackal,
but STS does it. You're gonna have

191
00:14:43.480 --> 00:14:48.799
to get one and a guest of
many radio shows, and he might have

192
00:14:48.879 --> 00:14:56.120
even been on Jackal's radio show.
Is our extraordinary guests today and that is

193
00:14:56.159 --> 00:15:03.200
the one and only Pa throw Rob. That's the Italian version of your name,

194
00:15:03.240 --> 00:15:07.600
Peter. It is indeed. How
you doing tonight, Elandro Good?

195
00:15:07.679 --> 00:15:11.200
How are you okay? A little
spaced out? I got to Rosweld a

196
00:15:11.240 --> 00:15:16.480
couple hours ago and hitting the floor
running as they say, we'll do this

197
00:15:16.559 --> 00:15:20.399
interview, try to catch up on
some email, get some sleep, and

198
00:15:20.720 --> 00:15:22.639
another interview at eight in the morning. Here. Yep, you're always a

199
00:15:22.679 --> 00:15:28.639
busy fella. Sure, I am
now in high demand. So did you

200
00:15:28.679 --> 00:15:33.240
fly out there to Albuquerque and then
drive to Roswell. No? When I

201
00:15:33.320 --> 00:15:37.399
first started coming out here, that
is just what I did. But now,

202
00:15:37.919 --> 00:15:45.279
thanks to the visionaries at American Airlines, you can now fly from major

203
00:15:45.360 --> 00:15:52.480
hubs to Dallas Fort Worth and changed
to an American Eagle I think is a

204
00:15:52.480 --> 00:16:02.240
subsidiary and it flies directly to Roswell. So it's not only easy, it's

205
00:16:02.360 --> 00:16:06.320
quick. And I was in Brooklyn
this morning and here I am, and

206
00:16:06.440 --> 00:16:11.639
the visitors and convention bureau today.
Oh man, I feel like a total

207
00:16:11.720 --> 00:16:18.200
chump because I'm driving. I didn't
know that I will now be spending six

208
00:16:18.279 --> 00:16:22.559
or seven hours on the road.
But that's okay. It's a lovely desert

209
00:16:22.600 --> 00:16:26.879
country, that'll be yeah, yeah, nothing wrong with that. Well,

210
00:16:26.879 --> 00:16:30.039
it's good to have you on the
show again, and I want to talk

211
00:16:30.080 --> 00:16:33.240
a lot about Roswell. And one
of the first questions I want to ask

212
00:16:33.320 --> 00:16:38.000
you about is, to you,
what makes this fest of All important?

213
00:16:38.200 --> 00:16:41.519
Well, that's a great question to
start out with, Alejandro, and it

214
00:16:41.679 --> 00:16:49.080
is one that calls for a multiple
answer. The most obvious is because the

215
00:16:49.120 --> 00:17:00.799
event itself that it commemorates is worthy
of a significant anniversary for any of us,

216
00:17:00.799 --> 00:17:07.720
of course, that are seriously involved
in this work. Roswell is certainly

217
00:17:07.759 --> 00:17:12.680
a very well established and singularly important
incident, in fact, uniquely important,

218
00:17:14.119 --> 00:17:22.599
But for many of us it's almost
a buzzword for the UFO mystery. However,

219
00:17:22.680 --> 00:17:27.640
the reasons this is important are several
fold. One thing that we've talked

220
00:17:27.680 --> 00:17:33.599
about and it is a point of
contention among some of our colleagues, and

221
00:17:33.960 --> 00:17:41.880
I certainly grasp both sides of the
aisle on this, which is if the

222
00:17:41.880 --> 00:17:48.400
reality and implications of our subject are
what we feel they are, which is

223
00:17:49.200 --> 00:17:56.480
paradigm shifting, shocking beyond belief,
a subject that has kind of created a

224
00:17:57.240 --> 00:18:03.880
cultural schizophrenia world since the end of
World War Two, where some people walk

225
00:18:03.920 --> 00:18:10.039
around with an appreciation for this and
others, you know, kind of live

226
00:18:10.079 --> 00:18:15.039
in a dream world that people like
us are all just deluding themselves or you

227
00:18:15.079 --> 00:18:22.759
know, fakers or a skilled class
that we want to feel special. It

228
00:18:22.079 --> 00:18:30.480
seemed to me years ago that how
come this subject hadn't just exploded into kind

229
00:18:30.519 --> 00:18:34.359
of a event. Let's face it, one of the things that we human

230
00:18:34.440 --> 00:18:41.839
beings are good at is try to
find ways of avoiding things that make us

231
00:18:41.920 --> 00:18:48.519
anxious. And it seems so natural
to me that if aliens and UFOs are

232
00:18:48.559 --> 00:18:53.359
real and the implications are what they
are, then what a better There really

233
00:18:53.440 --> 00:19:00.240
is no better way to deal with
your anxieties except by, you know,

234
00:19:00.319 --> 00:19:03.240
having a little fun at the expense
of the producer of the anxiety, whether

235
00:19:03.319 --> 00:19:10.319
or not you overtly take it seriously
or you don't. The other aspect is,

236
00:19:10.839 --> 00:19:15.799
let's face it, the subjects of
aliens and UFOs have so deeply ingrained

237
00:19:15.839 --> 00:19:22.559
themselves into the popular culture that we
live in now that you and I were

238
00:19:22.559 --> 00:19:27.799
born into, and not just in
this country but worldwide, that there should

239
00:19:27.880 --> 00:19:30.839
be an event like this, and
as we know, there are several,

240
00:19:32.240 --> 00:19:37.079
but to come down to one more
reason, and I think it's as important

241
00:19:37.640 --> 00:19:44.039
in the human area as any we
can think of. If this had never

242
00:19:44.119 --> 00:19:49.160
happened, the events of the summer
of nineteen forty seven in the plains of

243
00:19:51.279 --> 00:19:55.319
Corona, not that far from where
I'm sitting right now, and maybe let's

244
00:19:55.359 --> 00:19:57.440
say there have never been such a
thing as a UFO or an alien and

245
00:19:57.559 --> 00:20:02.880
we are indeed alone in the universe, and everything else is static condent.

246
00:20:03.400 --> 00:20:08.359
What would be going on in this
particular little southwest city of fifty three thousand

247
00:20:08.480 --> 00:20:12.359
people, Well, lots of things. People will be having families, businesses,

248
00:20:14.160 --> 00:20:18.759
following their dreams, all that stuff. But because of fate, circumstance,

249
00:20:18.839 --> 00:20:23.599
and history, they have a name
that is world famous for many people

250
00:20:23.680 --> 00:20:30.920
for flighty silly reasons, for others
for very important reasons. And like every

251
00:20:30.960 --> 00:20:34.359
other municipality in the United States right
now, times are hard, their backs

252
00:20:34.400 --> 00:20:40.240
are to the wall. And this
is one of a tiny handful of locations

253
00:20:40.319 --> 00:20:48.119
in the world that can lay claim
to a legitimate UFO event of such proportion

254
00:20:48.920 --> 00:20:56.119
that it is worthy of developing a
certain amount of tourist destination thinking toward it,

255
00:20:56.720 --> 00:21:02.799
so I'd like to think that the
sweep of events that we're going to

256
00:21:02.839 --> 00:21:06.279
have here, and it's quite mind
blowing. Over the four days from the

257
00:21:06.279 --> 00:21:10.119
first to the fourth of July,
a lot of people are going to come

258
00:21:10.160 --> 00:21:14.920
here just for fun. It's family
friendly, it's kid friendly. But you

259
00:21:15.000 --> 00:21:18.039
and I know that there's going to
be a percentage of them that are coming

260
00:21:18.079 --> 00:21:22.519
here for the remarkable symposium that we
have running on the second and third,

261
00:21:22.640 --> 00:21:27.480
very roswell focus. Great speakers,
lineup wonderful topics, and they'll be people

262
00:21:27.559 --> 00:21:33.559
drifting in because it is a free
conference. So while people are helping this

263
00:21:33.640 --> 00:21:40.559
community out, making it giving it, I would imagine its best physical week

264
00:21:40.759 --> 00:21:44.279
of the year. As far as
the business folks here, they can have

265
00:21:44.319 --> 00:21:47.480
a good time with their families,
and whether they know it or like it

266
00:21:47.599 --> 00:21:52.319
or not, there will be a
certain amount of covert education going all right,

267
00:21:52.880 --> 00:21:57.920
And I think all of those are
our kind of self involved. I've

268
00:21:57.920 --> 00:22:02.240
had colleagues that have said to me, and I won't even name names,

269
00:22:02.279 --> 00:22:11.119
but they're major names. How can
you even be involved with something where this

270
00:22:11.359 --> 00:22:15.200
subject, which we know you take
so seriously, is in any way tied

271
00:22:15.240 --> 00:22:22.920
to the word festival. It's just
too serious, and of course it's serious.

272
00:22:22.440 --> 00:22:29.559
My rule is yeah, since two
thousand and three when I worked at

273
00:22:29.559 --> 00:22:34.079
the McMinnville, Oregon UFO Festival.
It was quite an eye opener. It

274
00:22:34.119 --> 00:22:40.359
was an awful lot of fun,
and they had this absolutely focused, really

275
00:22:40.400 --> 00:22:45.440
well realized small conference. If it's
not if the humor, if the good

276
00:22:45.599 --> 00:22:53.039
natured stuff, if the lighterhearted stuff, is not condescending or sarcastic or insulting,

277
00:22:53.480 --> 00:23:00.960
but instead a pure, kind of
innocent celebration of these subjects as they

278
00:23:00.160 --> 00:23:06.039
kind of entered into the real world
and as they touch on our fantasies and

279
00:23:06.160 --> 00:23:10.839
the tremendous amount of entertainment which is
yet wrung out of them, and continues

280
00:23:11.920 --> 00:23:15.559
and well, and we got to
go to break. But I'm glad you

281
00:23:15.640 --> 00:23:18.279
brought up that question, because that
was the exact question I was going to

282
00:23:18.319 --> 00:23:23.119
ask, is that festival type atmosphere
and how some of the serious researchers get

283
00:23:23.200 --> 00:23:27.799
frustrated around that. But hold your
thought. We'll get back to that when

284
00:23:27.839 --> 00:23:32.839
we come back from break. We're
talking roswow with Peter Robbins, so stay

here again, your host, UFO paranormal

292
00:24:26.680 --> 00:24:33.559
researcher and journalist Alejandro Rojas. All
right, we are back and you're listening

293
00:24:33.559 --> 00:24:38.119
to open Minds Radio, and we
have one of my favorite people out there,

294
00:24:38.160 --> 00:24:42.319
Peter Robbins, on the air with
us, and before we went to

295
00:24:42.359 --> 00:24:47.160
break, you brought up a couple
of things. One thing that's really funny

296
00:24:47.240 --> 00:24:52.519
is you asked the question what if
Roswell never happened? And that's exactly the

297
00:24:52.559 --> 00:24:56.920
first the opening line of my talk
out there in Roswell, Because you know,

298
00:24:57.119 --> 00:25:03.880
I was thinking, what challenge to
do a talk on Roswell and how

299
00:25:03.920 --> 00:25:07.440
it affected culture? And I thought, well, what if Roswell didn't happen?

300
00:25:07.480 --> 00:25:11.839
And that was like a holy cred
You know what if Risweld didn't happen,

301
00:25:11.880 --> 00:25:18.640
that's actually it means a lot.
Yes it does. And again for

302
00:25:18.759 --> 00:25:21.839
many of us, you know,
in our field, this was one of

303
00:25:21.880 --> 00:25:30.759
the first cases that we heard of. The name itself is absolutely known around

304
00:25:30.799 --> 00:25:36.799
the world, not in every single
corner by every single person, but I

305
00:25:36.920 --> 00:25:40.920
flew in from Brooklyn this morning,
and it's another one of those names that

306
00:25:41.160 --> 00:25:45.079
just resonates in a way. You
know, not to be dispassionate, but

307
00:25:45.160 --> 00:25:49.400
it is essentially a brand, if
you were, that makes people think of

308
00:25:49.440 --> 00:25:56.240
a certain product, mystery, unanswered
questions, anxiety, all of the what

309
00:25:56.319 --> 00:26:03.359
ifs that associate themselves with our not
being alone in the university. It also

310
00:26:03.640 --> 00:26:10.640
suggests to many of us cover up, secrecy, repression of facts, false

311
00:26:10.680 --> 00:26:14.920
democracy, secret government, and you
know, every other kind of term that

312
00:26:14.960 --> 00:26:18.240
you can come up with that And
may I compliment you on what an amazing

313
00:26:18.279 --> 00:26:23.680
way to begin a lecture at a
Roswell centric conference. Yeah, well,

314
00:26:23.680 --> 00:26:29.599
thank you, thank you, but
yeah go ahead, Yeah, no,

315
00:26:29.680 --> 00:26:36.000
I think again, it really is
important for all the reasons I enumerated,

316
00:26:36.480 --> 00:26:41.200
and it also, as you know, if you go to a UFO conference,

317
00:26:41.039 --> 00:26:45.680
more often than not, you feel
you're in a safe space where you

318
00:26:45.720 --> 00:26:52.839
could chat casually with somebody that you
just met about this subject that normally you

319
00:26:52.880 --> 00:26:59.519
would not be the one to introduce
in a neutral kind of social situation.

320
00:26:59.759 --> 00:27:07.799
And here we are expecting thousands of
people. I mean thousands. I'm sure

321
00:27:07.920 --> 00:27:11.640
again many of them are coming just
out of curiosity or to have a good

322
00:27:11.720 --> 00:27:15.279
time, or because it's nearby,
or so many of the attractions are free,

323
00:27:15.680 --> 00:27:19.039
but many of them are coming because
they do take this subject seriously,

324
00:27:19.440 --> 00:27:26.279
and it's not something they're necessarily comfortable
talking about, either because they're intellectually curious

325
00:27:26.319 --> 00:27:30.160
about it, or they've had a
sighting or they've had an experience, and

326
00:27:30.400 --> 00:27:36.359
they know the level of conditioning by
our media and our government something that you

327
00:27:36.440 --> 00:27:41.039
and I are quite studied in,
right, and why you know so many

328
00:27:41.079 --> 00:27:45.319
people are just reflexively conditioned not to
take it seriously when maybe in their heart

329
00:27:45.319 --> 00:27:49.200
of hearts they feel quite otherwise.
Well, you mentioned something earlier, and

330
00:27:49.279 --> 00:27:53.599
you know, like we talked about
with people getting frustrated about the festival atmosphere

331
00:27:53.880 --> 00:27:57.480
and a lot of people coming to
have fun, But you know that's not

332
00:27:57.559 --> 00:28:02.839
a bad thing. Like you said, there are people who are uncomfortable with

333
00:28:02.880 --> 00:28:07.559
this subject. And one thing that
used to strike me is I was taking

334
00:28:07.599 --> 00:28:12.079
college courses the last few years trying
to learn some more about psychology, and

335
00:28:12.119 --> 00:28:17.880
at the same time, what I
used to be doing was a corporate trainer

336
00:28:18.519 --> 00:28:22.400
and a manager of a corporate training
department and things like that. But the

337
00:28:22.519 --> 00:28:27.440
difference when you go to college,
you know, you're professor ishah lah blah

338
00:28:27.519 --> 00:28:33.200
blah blah, you're supposed to learn
what they're just kind of talking, and

339
00:28:33.400 --> 00:28:37.920
the corporate atmospherit's different. We're doing, like you had said earlier, We're

340
00:28:37.920 --> 00:28:45.400
trying to make this fun and make
sure people are intrigued and teaching them,

341
00:28:45.559 --> 00:28:48.880
educating them without them even knowing,
because we all know in the corporate world

342
00:28:48.920 --> 00:28:53.279
these people could just leave or not
pay attention, and then you send them

343
00:28:53.319 --> 00:28:56.759
out there and they don't know their
jobs. So you've got to try to

344
00:28:56.839 --> 00:29:03.039
trick them into getting educated. And
that's an important aspect of what I think

345
00:29:03.039 --> 00:29:11.519
happens at Roswell. Yeah. Also, because we have so many options of

346
00:29:11.640 --> 00:29:18.000
things that we designed into this.
For example, myself and Karen Dolan,

347
00:29:18.039 --> 00:29:22.200
who of course will also be one
of our distinguished speech speakers, we will

348
00:29:22.240 --> 00:29:30.279
be dividing up several hours of time
here in a wonderful location in the Visitors

349
00:29:30.319 --> 00:29:36.319
Bureau to do a series of workshops
on you UFOs for children, and that

350
00:29:36.440 --> 00:29:41.119
is something that most folks in our
field steer a wide berth around. Karen,

351
00:29:41.160 --> 00:29:47.759
of course, is kind of carved
out in part a research specialty that

352
00:29:47.839 --> 00:29:52.000
she won't be addressing in her talk
next week, but one that she is

353
00:29:52.079 --> 00:29:56.160
doing a brilliant job in which is
the impact of this subject on children.

354
00:29:56.720 --> 00:30:02.319
Everything from the innocent aspect of you
know, using happy aliens to sell your

355
00:30:02.400 --> 00:30:06.960
kids ice cream, to a kid
walking in while mom and dad are watching

356
00:30:07.000 --> 00:30:11.240
a really serious documentary on abductions,
or if the kid has had their own

357
00:30:11.440 --> 00:30:15.119
sighting or experience, who what have
you. I've done a few of these

358
00:30:15.240 --> 00:30:22.799
in the States and in the UK
and approach it very very carefully and don't

359
00:30:22.799 --> 00:30:26.119
feel kids' heads up with a lot
of stuff. Essentially, it's an opportunity

360
00:30:26.160 --> 00:30:30.359
to ask them the questions and let
them begin to get the momentum going,

361
00:30:30.400 --> 00:30:37.359
and you will speak to very few
children. Are actually very few people under

362
00:30:37.359 --> 00:30:47.880
thirty who have the kind of doubts
that more serious dodgy folks are either older

363
00:30:47.960 --> 00:30:55.119
mentally or emotionally do have in fact
most younger people. What is the problem,

364
00:30:55.200 --> 00:30:57.640
Why does you know? Why do
people get weirded out about this?

365
00:30:57.920 --> 00:31:02.519
Yeah, you know the odds are
of course, that's just nonsense to feel

366
00:31:02.519 --> 00:31:06.119
otherwise. And it's fun to talk
to kids about this and ask the questions,

367
00:31:06.200 --> 00:31:08.759
like you said, because they come
up with some really fun and interesting

368
00:31:08.839 --> 00:31:12.799
men stuff and really, but it
is sometimes along the lines of let's say,

369
00:31:14.039 --> 00:31:17.319
you know, doctor Paul Davies or
something. They're asking these kind of

370
00:31:17.359 --> 00:31:21.279
profound questions, you know, like
well, we're here, shouldn't they be

371
00:31:21.400 --> 00:31:23.960
out there? And now do they
do this like we do? And other

372
00:31:25.599 --> 00:31:29.119
fun, creative type of things that
kids come up with, you know,

373
00:31:29.519 --> 00:31:33.359
Alejandro. The first one of these
workshops I did had to be close to

374
00:31:33.440 --> 00:31:38.200
twenty years ago at a legendary private
school in Suffolk, England called Summer Hill

375
00:31:38.359 --> 00:31:45.240
that was pioneered by the great British
educator. As Neil and I had been

376
00:31:47.319 --> 00:31:53.519
basically told, this is a relaxed
atmosphere. It will be kids and their

377
00:31:53.519 --> 00:31:59.960
house parents and teachers all together,
and you know, you can you don't

378
00:32:00.119 --> 00:32:04.640
have to be quite as protective as
you might be in another situation, and

379
00:32:04.799 --> 00:32:09.240
what caught me totally off guard was
I had completely forgotten on my way there

380
00:32:09.319 --> 00:32:15.480
Number one, that this is just
across a stretch of water from the Sizewell

381
00:32:15.759 --> 00:32:22.400
Nuclear Generator and nuclear facilities tend to
have a higher incidence have confirmed UFO sidings

382
00:32:22.440 --> 00:32:28.799
around them, and less than twenty
miles away from the site of the Rendelsham

383
00:32:28.920 --> 00:32:35.440
Forest UFO incident. And my little
slide lecture kind of turned itself around after

384
00:32:35.440 --> 00:32:39.559
a while and it became just one
kid after another and then the house parents

385
00:32:39.559 --> 00:32:45.480
and the teachers talking about their UFO
sidings, in some cases from the school

386
00:32:45.680 --> 00:32:50.920
property. Wow. Yeah, very
very dramatic. At the other extreme,

387
00:32:52.240 --> 00:33:01.440
I did a workshop at a Fortian
conference some years ago in Debon, England,

388
00:33:01.519 --> 00:33:06.480
and in this one I had kids
as young as about seven and up

389
00:33:06.480 --> 00:33:10.359
to sixteen, and I always ask
that as many parents be there as possible

390
00:33:10.400 --> 00:33:15.519
for obvious reasons, and that it
should be recorded because somebody is going to

391
00:33:15.400 --> 00:33:20.240
coming at you. And what did
you fill little junior's mind with? Basically

392
00:33:20.279 --> 00:33:25.119
nothing? And after a fashion we
started to talk about stuff that people see

393
00:33:25.119 --> 00:33:30.720
in the sky and then things that
you know that you didn't understand, and

394
00:33:30.880 --> 00:33:35.359
is that strange that you see something
you don't understand. We discussed terms on

395
00:33:35.440 --> 00:33:38.640
identified view, you know, flying
object, et cetera. And at the

396
00:33:38.839 --> 00:33:42.839
toward the end, I said,
well, does anybody you know want to

397
00:33:43.160 --> 00:33:46.640
talk about anything that they've seen.
We had some kids who had been with

398
00:33:46.680 --> 00:33:52.799
their parents during the meteor shower of
very interesting other ones who had seen a

399
00:33:52.839 --> 00:33:57.240
comet at night, and so it
went. A few who had seen maybe

400
00:33:57.240 --> 00:34:00.240
helicopters, but who knows. In
one little girl, and for me,

401
00:34:00.440 --> 00:34:04.519
she really nailed it. She said, well, I sleep and I look

402
00:34:04.640 --> 00:34:08.480
out a window and I saw this
thing and it was like a dinner plate

403
00:34:08.519 --> 00:34:12.639
that you sort of turn, so
it looks kind of like an egg,

404
00:34:12.760 --> 00:34:15.559
but it's long, and it was
moving and it stopped and moved here to

405
00:34:15.599 --> 00:34:20.119
move there. Her mom was in
the room, and no guile, no

406
00:34:20.280 --> 00:34:23.000
angle. I think she was about
seven, and you know, a beautiful

407
00:34:23.000 --> 00:34:29.480
little British accent, and yes,
I saw something that I couldn't explain and

408
00:34:29.519 --> 00:34:31.800
I never saw anything else like it. And I said, and what did

409
00:34:31.840 --> 00:34:35.679
you do? And she shot her
mom a look and she said, well,

410
00:34:35.679 --> 00:34:40.880
I went and I told my mother
and I realized we're getting into some

411
00:34:42.039 --> 00:34:45.519
territory here, and I said,
what did your mother say to you?

412
00:34:45.280 --> 00:34:47.280
And once again she looked at her
mom and looked at me, and she

413
00:34:47.320 --> 00:34:52.719
said, my mother said she didn't
believe me. And the room went quiet,

414
00:34:52.079 --> 00:34:55.400
and her mom just sort of looked
like, you know, shrug her

415
00:34:55.400 --> 00:35:00.159
shoulders like I didn't, you know, Sorry, funny. I So the

416
00:35:00.239 --> 00:35:01.719
last thing was, I said to
the little girl, and how do you

417
00:35:01.760 --> 00:35:05.880
feel about that? And once again
she looked at her you know what.

418
00:35:06.000 --> 00:35:07.960
I'm sorry. We're gonna have to
wait for the answer after break, but

419
00:35:08.000 --> 00:35:10.960
we got to get to break,

00:36:22.400 --> 00:36:28.920
to open Minds Radio. Here now
former official spokesperson for the Mutual UFO Network,

431
00:36:29.159 --> 00:36:34.719
your host of open Minds Radio,
Alejandro Rojas. Welcome back to open

432
00:36:34.719 --> 00:36:38.280
Minds Radio. But everybody wants to
know the end of the story. So

433
00:36:38.320 --> 00:36:42.880
the little girl do tend to go
on? I'm going to tell the end

434
00:36:42.880 --> 00:36:45.800
of the story and then be much
more punchy with our little bit of remaining

435
00:36:45.880 --> 00:36:49.920
time. The little girl looked at
me, looked at her mother, and

436
00:36:49.960 --> 00:36:54.119
then said, my mother is entitled
to her own opinion. Oh my dad

437
00:36:54.280 --> 00:37:00.239
was seven and it was just a
perfect note. But yes, I sure

438
00:37:00.280 --> 00:37:02.400
hope because I know, you know
we're both in the Southwest right now,

439
00:37:02.760 --> 00:37:07.559
that some of your listeners that might
not have solid plans for the long Fourth

440
00:37:07.599 --> 00:37:14.280
of July weekend will consider joining us
for a very unique Fourth of July weekend.

441
00:37:14.880 --> 00:37:17.159
Right It's gonna be a lot of
fun, and I know somebody had

442
00:37:17.199 --> 00:37:22.880
contacted me wanting to call in.
So now is your chance to call in

443
00:37:22.920 --> 00:37:28.639
if you're listening, mister caller,
And I'll keep it a surprise, so

444
00:37:28.679 --> 00:37:35.119
hopefully he'll call in. But I
wanted to touch on real fast here because

445
00:37:35.440 --> 00:37:37.079
I don't know when we'll be able
to have you on the show next Probably

446
00:37:37.119 --> 00:37:43.119
won't be too long. But this
is a thirtieth anniversary of the randelschromp Forrest

447
00:37:43.280 --> 00:37:46.159
incident. Of course, your book
left at East Kate is an important part

448
00:37:46.800 --> 00:37:54.480
of people knowing about that case.
Yes, December coming up will be the

449
00:37:54.519 --> 00:38:01.920
actual thirtieth anniversary of the United Kingdom's
best known and best documented UFO incident.

450
00:38:04.679 --> 00:38:10.480
Even after all this time, information
continues to come at us. We have

451
00:38:10.960 --> 00:38:16.920
more and more of the actual witnesses
who are now willing not just to go

452
00:38:17.000 --> 00:38:24.639
on record, but to speak out
in public forums. And it's certainly not

453
00:38:24.679 --> 00:38:30.760
going to stop with the thirtieth anniversary. But for example, if you're on

454
00:38:30.840 --> 00:38:35.760
Facebook, you can join the Justice
for the eighty First, the unit that

455
00:38:35.960 --> 00:38:44.480
was involved to a great degree in
going up against this unknown and who many

456
00:38:44.559 --> 00:38:49.159
of them are still suffering from post
traumatic stress disorder of what they were put

457
00:38:49.199 --> 00:38:57.840
through before the fact and after,
including my illustrious co author Larry Warren a

458
00:38:57.960 --> 00:39:02.639
really good day. And he's also
a true American hero who has been through

459
00:39:02.639 --> 00:39:07.199
the Ringer, and without him,
I don't know if this story ever would

460
00:39:07.239 --> 00:39:12.920
have broken. It is one right, I would say, We're going to

461
00:39:13.000 --> 00:39:17.440
be hearing more about as we head
into the anniversary, and I will keep

462
00:39:17.480 --> 00:39:22.800
you and your listeners updated as I
learned. Any new breaking aspects great.

463
00:39:22.920 --> 00:39:27.519
I know some stuff is brewing and
I can't wait to hear what and hopefully

464
00:39:27.559 --> 00:39:31.039
something exciting happens. But one funny
thing when I did ask myself what if

465
00:39:31.079 --> 00:39:35.480
there was no Roswell, I kind
of thought of, what is the next

466
00:39:36.559 --> 00:39:42.360
our biggest case where you have these
witnesses who were military people who were involved

467
00:39:42.400 --> 00:39:45.400
with the incident, and we might
have to wait all the way up until

468
00:39:45.440 --> 00:39:50.960
when this case got broke Rendolshrom forrest. I mean, if there is no

469
00:39:51.119 --> 00:39:54.960
Roswell, do we might have had
this huge law in the whole UFO arena

470
00:39:55.039 --> 00:40:00.159
until Rendolshrom came up. I take
that may well have been the case.

471
00:40:01.119 --> 00:40:07.519
The only reason that it broke when
it did was because Larry gave all the

472
00:40:07.559 --> 00:40:14.079
evidence he had name names, cited
locations, produced paperwork, and a year

473
00:40:14.159 --> 00:40:19.440
later, the one single page document
which we would call the Halt Document,

474
00:40:20.320 --> 00:40:25.079
a somewhat redacted and compressed and sanitized
report on the events written by the then

475
00:40:25.159 --> 00:40:31.840
deputy based commander of that installation in
Suffolk, was still an authentic document describing

476
00:40:31.840 --> 00:40:37.159
a real event again, even if
a bit smoothed down. And Charles Halt,

477
00:40:37.239 --> 00:40:39.599
now that he's retired, is certainly
a bit more forthcoming than he was

478
00:40:39.719 --> 00:40:45.400
back then. So yes, again
this one. I don't think we'll ever

479
00:40:45.480 --> 00:40:51.880
go away. And unlike Roswell,
literally all of the principles are still alive.

480
00:40:51.960 --> 00:40:59.599
And if our elected officials had any
courage at all to readdress this subject

481
00:40:59.639 --> 00:41:02.480
for the first time since the nineteen
sixties, this is the one you could

482
00:41:02.519 --> 00:41:07.840
take to court. I am absolutely
convinced of that. Yeah, will be

483
00:41:07.840 --> 00:41:10.159
glad to present it in any court
that will have me. Yeah. Well,

484
00:41:10.440 --> 00:41:15.840
we've got some great articles coming up
in our issue that we're going to

485
00:41:15.840 --> 00:41:21.199
be mostly centered around UFO landings,
but in particular Randall Sham and one that

486
00:41:21.719 --> 00:41:24.840
a young college kid writer who's written
for us before, and he does a

487
00:41:24.880 --> 00:41:30.519
great job. He interviewed you and
Larryan wrote a story on it. It

488
00:41:30.519 --> 00:41:32.519
turned out to be a great story. He did a good job with it.

489
00:41:34.400 --> 00:41:38.920
Yes, Ryan, I actually got
to meet him, oh a few

490
00:41:38.920 --> 00:41:44.239
weeks ago, because I did two
talks in New York City that weekend and

491
00:41:44.320 --> 00:41:45.920
he came to one of them,
and up until then we had just been

492
00:41:45.920 --> 00:41:50.440
corresponding. And I agree with you, Alejandro. I think he is a

493
00:41:50.480 --> 00:41:55.320
fine upcoming writer, and I think
he was quite even handed on the story

494
00:41:55.519 --> 00:41:59.599
right, and will wish him the
best. Well, this story gets a

495
00:41:59.599 --> 00:42:04.199
little dicey, and I want to
ask you this kind of tough question around

496
00:42:04.239 --> 00:42:09.519
it because of Larry's version of events
versus others, and I was afraid.

497
00:42:09.679 --> 00:42:14.119
You know, Ryan tackled that issue
and he did a great job with it

498
00:42:14.159 --> 00:42:19.039
in the story. But essentially,
there is on the third day in question,

499
00:42:19.079 --> 00:42:23.920
where there was three days maybe of
events happening, where there was a

500
00:42:23.960 --> 00:42:35.000
possible landing and reported meeting of military
and extraterrestrials. Do you think that happened?

501
00:42:35.519 --> 00:42:39.800
Well, what I think happened is
based on nine intensive years of study,

502
00:42:39.800 --> 00:42:45.599
and on top of that, the
best, most accurate description I have

503
00:42:45.719 --> 00:42:52.320
been able to really make real for
myself is that there was a standoff.

504
00:42:52.639 --> 00:43:02.199
There was a face off between American
personnel and these three presences that were out

505
00:43:02.239 --> 00:43:07.880
there in Caple Green that night.
Now, if you ask a psychologist how

506
00:43:07.960 --> 00:43:13.559
much communication is actually verbal, I
think the stats are something like, I

507
00:43:13.559 --> 00:43:17.440
don't know, twenty five or thirty
percent or something. Most communication, certainly

508
00:43:17.880 --> 00:43:23.719
is nonverbal. It can be done
with body language and eyebrow. You know,

509
00:43:24.159 --> 00:43:30.320
there are so many ways, there
are stories and legends and myths that

510
00:43:30.519 --> 00:43:35.679
we repaired their craft. We exchanged
candy bars with them, we chatted away.

511
00:43:36.320 --> 00:43:39.280
I don't buy any of this stuff. But again, if communication can

512
00:43:39.360 --> 00:43:44.960
be as simple as you know,
staring in the eyes of a fellow human

513
00:43:45.000 --> 00:43:49.840
being or another creature via your cat
or bird or whatever, yeah, that's

514
00:43:49.880 --> 00:43:52.920
communication on a certain level for sure. Yeah. Well close encounters. They

515
00:43:53.000 --> 00:43:58.800
did the little hand thing, yes, and that was their communication. And

516
00:43:59.079 --> 00:44:01.800
you know, just one other thing
that you said, because it's terribly important.

517
00:44:04.760 --> 00:44:07.880
I did a radio show a week
and a half ago with Larry and

518
00:44:07.000 --> 00:44:13.559
Jim Pennison and John Burrow's three of
the authentic witnesses, and one of the

519
00:44:13.599 --> 00:44:19.519
things that came up was different memories
of the same thing. And Nick Pope

520
00:44:19.679 --> 00:44:22.159
was on and Bill Burns as well, and we ended up talking a bit

521
00:44:22.199 --> 00:44:29.519
about the physiology of shock, whatever
we were doing to these guys, whatever

522
00:44:29.719 --> 00:44:35.119
these other intelligences were doing to affect
their thinking or perceptions. There is also

523
00:44:35.880 --> 00:44:40.119
shock. And if you have twelve
witnesses to a conventional, standard terrestrial automobile

524
00:44:40.159 --> 00:44:45.599
accident and you take each one aside
and you interview them on what they remember,

525
00:44:46.320 --> 00:44:51.679
it is all informed by that moment
where they heard that metal smash against

526
00:44:51.719 --> 00:44:54.920
metal, had an epenephron and an
adrenaline dump into their body, went into

527
00:44:54.960 --> 00:45:02.239
auditory exclusion, tunnel vision selected person
and I think one of the most important

528
00:45:02.280 --> 00:45:06.840
things. And Linda Howe made a
wonderful point of this. She's been working

529
00:45:06.880 --> 00:45:09.760
well okay quick, Yeah, he
is got these guys some slack, you

530
00:45:09.800 --> 00:45:13.960
know, right, thirty years and
they're doing their best. Yeah, exactly.

531
00:45:14.360 --> 00:45:19.000
Yeah, anybody heard of post traumatic
syndrome, you know. But we

532
00:45:19.159 --> 00:45:21.880
got to go thank you for being
on the show. And I should mention

533
00:45:22.000 --> 00:45:23.960
that our third issue, which is
really going to shock people, that we've

534
00:45:23.960 --> 00:45:30.159
got an incredible cover. It's on
abductions, which is another specialty of Peter

535
00:45:30.280 --> 00:45:35.000
Robbins, and we have a great
story from you pretty much are introductory story,

536
00:45:35.280 --> 00:45:38.000
telling people about abductions, how they
happen, and a lot of incredible

537
00:45:38.039 --> 00:45:43.519
scenarios that are real that people really
went through in the third issue of the

538
00:45:43.559 --> 00:45:46.239
magazine. Thank you for being on
the show, Peter. I will see

539
00:45:46.239 --> 00:45:51.559
you after my long drive in a
couple of days, but we've got to

540
00:45:51.639 --> 00:45:54.239
go. Yep, have a great
night, you too. Next week,

541
00:45:54.280 --> 00:46:00.440
we've got Robert Hastings. He's pretty
much done the most research on you suppose

542
00:46:00.719 --> 00:46:05.679
and their connection to nuclear bases.
He's interviewed tons of Air Force people,

543
00:46:06.079 --> 00:46:09.119
and we'll be talking to him about
the details and a great press conference that

544
00:46:09.159 --> 00:46:14.440
he's putting together in Washington, DC. So check us out next week.

545
00:46:14.480 --> 00:46:16.800
Thanks for listening to Open Minds Radio. See you soon.
