1
00:00:00.200 --> 00:00:03.279
And it hits me, Oh my
gosh, this is a triangle. You

2
00:00:03.319 --> 00:00:07.000
know, there's explanation for everything that
occurred in the randallsham Pars incident. It

3
00:00:07.040 --> 00:00:12.039
doesn't involve aliens at all. It
was completely silent. It comes right over

4
00:00:12.119 --> 00:00:17.960
our heads classic. He's also really
standing into clearing. He turned over to

5
00:00:18.000 --> 00:00:20.519
my father and held his hand,
and he looked in his eyes and said,

6
00:00:20.519 --> 00:00:29.160
we're not alone. Welcome to Podcast
UFO for our live show. During

7
00:00:29.160 --> 00:00:33.119
the show, feel free to participate
live in our chat room, and don't

8
00:00:33.159 --> 00:00:39.479
forget to like us on our very
active Facebook page. Hello, and welcome

9
00:00:39.479 --> 00:00:42.320
to the show on Martin Willish,
your host. Hey, after a new

10
00:00:42.359 --> 00:00:45.200
headset. We're going to see how
this works. You know, I've been

11
00:00:45.240 --> 00:00:50.679
trying to find something that would work
better for so I don't have to keep

12
00:00:50.759 --> 00:00:56.200
leaning up to the mic all the
time. And I had I had doctor

13
00:00:56.320 --> 00:01:00.960
Michael masters On who had a headset
that sounded great, so I ordered it.

14
00:01:00.960 --> 00:01:03.879
It's here. Hopefully it'll sound as
good as it does when he's using

15
00:01:03.920 --> 00:01:07.719
it. Also, other people are
using the same mic in the trade,

16
00:01:08.000 --> 00:01:14.560
so we'll see how this works out. My guest tonight is doctor Bruce mcabee,

17
00:01:14.599 --> 00:01:17.959
He'll be coming up in a little
bit first, filling in for Alejandro

18
00:01:18.079 --> 00:01:21.079
as the one and only Lee Spiegel. He'll be on in just a second.

19
00:01:21.760 --> 00:01:25.519
I want to say that next week
I have, as you know,

20
00:01:25.879 --> 00:01:29.840
long time listeners especially, I've always
figured out a way to do a show

21
00:01:29.879 --> 00:01:37.120
even when traveling overseas or anywhere.
But this next week it's absolutely impossible,

22
00:01:37.319 --> 00:01:42.400
and I have to support my lavish
lifestyle. I guess I am going to

23
00:01:42.439 --> 00:01:48.519
be working at a location on an
estate where there's absolutely no internet, just

24
00:01:48.760 --> 00:01:52.599
barely a one or two bars signal, and I have to stay there at

25
00:01:52.640 --> 00:01:55.719
the house for the entire week next
week, so I'm not going to be

26
00:01:55.760 --> 00:02:00.000
available for a show. However,
I already have set up a first time

27
00:02:00.159 --> 00:02:06.920
YouTube is an interview back in twenty
thirteen and or even earlier, I believe,

28
00:02:07.000 --> 00:02:09.879
yeah, twenty thirteen. I have
an interview setup that you will find

29
00:02:09.919 --> 00:02:15.319
most enjoyable, and that's also going
to be a rerun for all of the

30
00:02:15.599 --> 00:02:20.599
longtime podcast listeners and supporters. The
free show and the member show is all

31
00:02:20.639 --> 00:02:23.360
going to be that. Speaking of
members, a number of people have told

32
00:02:23.360 --> 00:02:29.439
me they have had trouble that they
do not want to use PayPal, and

33
00:02:29.680 --> 00:02:36.080
I guess Patreon has other ways of
people supporting a show, So I have

34
00:02:36.479 --> 00:02:39.080
a membership now on Patreon. I
already have a supporter, Thank you Chris.

35
00:02:39.759 --> 00:02:45.560
He's also the one that strongly suggests
that I do it, So that

36
00:02:45.800 --> 00:02:49.479
is now available. The link is
right on podcastufo dot com. If anyone

37
00:02:49.520 --> 00:02:53.639
wants to support through Patreon, and
I will. Once you support the show,

38
00:02:53.680 --> 00:02:59.360
I will give you the link and
the free I mean the access to

39
00:02:59.080 --> 00:03:04.240
the two hour shows and a complete
guide on how to set that up with

40
00:03:04.280 --> 00:03:07.240
your media player. So again,

00:03:17.159 --> 00:03:22.439
the show, I still appreciate you
listening. And with that, we'll start

44
00:03:22.439 --> 00:03:27.800
out with our fill in news guy
today, Lee Spiegel. Hey Lee,

45
00:03:27.919 --> 00:03:30.599
welcome to the show. Well,
hello, Martin, I'm very happy to

46
00:03:30.639 --> 00:03:36.280
be your current fill in guide.
Yes, thanks for filling in, but

47
00:03:36.439 --> 00:03:40.639
you also I was inviting you on
anyway because you have you know, you

48
00:03:40.639 --> 00:03:44.960
want to talk about your new show
coming up, So let's do that first.

49
00:03:45.039 --> 00:03:50.319
Let's just talk about your show coming
up. The time whereas someone can

50
00:03:50.400 --> 00:03:53.919
watch it and all the info you
can give us, well not are we

51
00:03:53.960 --> 00:03:59.039
talking about radio or oh yeah,
otherwise no, no, let's talk about

52
00:03:59.080 --> 00:04:01.800
We'll talk about the part later.
Yeah, okay, Well, you know,

53
00:04:01.919 --> 00:04:08.560
I'm actually I'm looking very much forward
to joining you and the KGRA family

54
00:04:09.120 --> 00:04:14.240
when I premiere my new radio show
next week. It's right around the corner,

55
00:04:14.319 --> 00:04:18.120
and it's called Edge of Reality Radio, and it's kind of a kind

56
00:04:18.120 --> 00:04:26.199
of a half premiere and half resurrection
of my previous talk show that was called

57
00:04:26.360 --> 00:04:32.720
coincidentally, Edge of Reality that it
first hit the airwaves nearly forty years ago

58
00:04:33.160 --> 00:04:39.639
on NBC Radio in New York.
And wow, a lot has happened since

59
00:04:39.680 --> 00:04:45.360
then in the whole field of UFO
studies. And as you know from all

60
00:04:45.360 --> 00:04:47.680
the work that you're you've done,
the people you've interviewed, we're at a

61
00:04:47.720 --> 00:04:56.120
point right now historically where the ridicule
factor has diminished a great deal. People

62
00:04:56.360 --> 00:05:00.439
aren't as afraid of reporting strange things
that they've seen in the day or night

63
00:05:00.519 --> 00:05:08.319
sky. Plus the way that the
meteor reports close encounters, that's evolved to

64
00:05:08.399 --> 00:05:13.439
the point where it's not just kind
of relegated to a news item that's saved

65
00:05:13.519 --> 00:05:17.399
for the very end of the eleven
o'clock news each night. That seems to

66
00:05:17.439 --> 00:05:24.319
be a thing of the past.
I'm happy to note that you're absolutely right

67
00:05:24.360 --> 00:05:28.519
about that, and it makes uh. I think I talked about it last

68
00:05:28.519 --> 00:05:33.480
week. I'm not so embarrassed to
actually talk about it, and when I'm

69
00:05:33.480 --> 00:05:39.399
out and about and actually doing my
professional life, I'm not so worried about

70
00:05:39.480 --> 00:05:43.920
it anymore. Oh. That's an
interesting point because there are many people who

71
00:05:43.959 --> 00:05:48.279
have other things that they do for
a living and the UFO part of their

72
00:05:48.319 --> 00:05:55.800
world is almost secondary, and they
make many cases it should be because people

73
00:05:55.879 --> 00:05:59.560
need to actually live and earn a
living, But it doesn't mean that they

74
00:05:59.600 --> 00:06:04.600
can't be serious investigators of something that
seriously needs to be investigated. And you

75
00:06:04.680 --> 00:06:09.720
know that you know much closer than
those people. I know. That's right.

76
00:06:09.839 --> 00:06:13.759
That's right. So let's see.
They can catch it right here.

77
00:06:14.519 --> 00:06:17.240
Actually, if you're listening live on
KGRA A right now, you can catch

78
00:06:17.279 --> 00:06:20.759
it there. And it's Thursday evenings
again, what is it? Eight to

79
00:06:20.839 --> 00:06:26.399
ten? Is that? Yes?
Edge of Reality Radio will premiere Thursday,

80
00:06:26.639 --> 00:06:31.879
August first, from eight to ten
pm Eastern Time on KGRA aight, and

81
00:06:31.879 --> 00:06:36.240
and just so that you and your
audience knows each week won't just be about

82
00:06:36.360 --> 00:06:42.000
UFOs. There's a lot of road
to cover in what I like to call

83
00:06:42.079 --> 00:06:46.439
the overlapping world of science and unexplained
phenomena. We're going to look at things

84
00:06:46.480 --> 00:06:53.199
like ghosts, the possibility of life
after death, the scientific search for all

85
00:06:53.240 --> 00:07:00.839
the realities and universes, one of
my favorites, time travel, straight creatures

86
00:07:00.920 --> 00:07:05.399
reported from around the world, and
you know, recent advances in what we

87
00:07:05.560 --> 00:07:12.279
now know about human consciousness, and
there's a lot going on with that kind

88
00:07:12.279 --> 00:07:15.319
of research. So I'm I'm looking
forward to just taking the listeners on an

89
00:07:15.360 --> 00:07:20.360
eye opening excursion of the wonders of
the world that are all around us,

90
00:07:20.439 --> 00:07:26.160
because I'll learn in the same process
as the listeners will. That's why that's

91
00:07:26.160 --> 00:07:29.399
why I do this, Martin,
is because I don't know everything about all

92
00:07:29.439 --> 00:07:34.480
of these things. This is a
great idea. It's a great ability for

93
00:07:34.560 --> 00:07:38.399
me to learn as much as I
hope to bring to the audience. So

94
00:07:38.480 --> 00:07:41.879
this is great for all of us. I think, I totally I totally

95
00:07:41.959 --> 00:07:46.680
understand. Although I will say how
many years have I doing this show?

96
00:07:46.519 --> 00:07:51.680
Eight years? Just about eight years
I know just as much as I did

97
00:07:51.680 --> 00:07:57.319
in the beginning about UFOs. You
know, I don't don't want to say

98
00:07:57.319 --> 00:08:01.680
that I know anything more about UFOs. However, I will say that I've

99
00:08:01.720 --> 00:08:03.680
heard in the eight years that I've
been doing this show, I've heard some

100
00:08:03.839 --> 00:08:11.120
amazing things that enough to keep me
going. And it's it's actually still exciting

101
00:08:11.199 --> 00:08:16.680
for me. And you know,
just to listen to you know, even

102
00:08:16.680 --> 00:08:22.439
if I don't agree with what someone
is saying, it's still very interesting to

103
00:08:22.480 --> 00:08:26.800
me to hear people's thoughts about the
possibilities of what we may be seeing.

104
00:08:26.879 --> 00:08:31.360
I think it's all fascinating. Listen, I think you're wrong. I think

105
00:08:31.919 --> 00:08:37.519
yeah, but only only on one
point. I think you, Martin Willis,

106
00:08:37.960 --> 00:08:41.000
you do know more now than you
did when you first started reporting in

107
00:08:41.039 --> 00:08:46.080
this And what I mean by that
is to people who who say to me,

108
00:08:46.200 --> 00:08:50.279
oh, I can't believe that stuff
you're interested in. I'm a real

109
00:08:50.399 --> 00:08:54.039
scoffer at that kind of stuff,
my response to them is, how much

110
00:08:54.120 --> 00:09:00.960
personal time have you looked into this
particular subject? How much time have you

111
00:09:01.320 --> 00:09:07.200
either read books or watched anything else
besides ancient aliens on TV? I mean,

112
00:09:07.360 --> 00:09:13.759
what have you done for yourself to
give yourself a valid opinion on the

113
00:09:13.799 --> 00:09:18.799
subject, and in this case UFOs, and people will say, well,

114
00:09:18.840 --> 00:09:20.799
I really haven't done much and yeah, I catch a couple of things on

115
00:09:20.840 --> 00:09:24.799
TV, and I have no problem
saying to people Martin, in that case,

116
00:09:26.360 --> 00:09:31.840
you don't have a valid opinion on
UFOs because you haven't spent the time

117
00:09:33.360 --> 00:09:39.000
to create an opinion. You're just
going by what you've maybe instinctively or what

118
00:09:39.159 --> 00:09:43.960
you just believe inside. People want
to believe in something. Everybody wants to

119
00:09:43.000 --> 00:09:48.080
believe in something. But that's okay
to have a personal belief in something.

120
00:09:48.639 --> 00:09:54.000
But isn't it better to know that
your opinion is based on what you've really

121
00:09:54.080 --> 00:10:00.159
found out on your own and that
will make the water cooler conversation with you

122
00:10:00.240 --> 00:10:03.120
much more interesting the next day.
You know, I do agree with that

123
00:10:03.120 --> 00:10:07.279
that part of it. Absolutely,
Like, if I'm out and about and

124
00:10:07.919 --> 00:10:11.240
the conversation happens to come up,
I do have plenty to talk about,

125
00:10:11.279 --> 00:10:15.960
that's for sure, without sure,
without a doubt. And if you're just

126
00:10:16.159 --> 00:10:20.600
listening to this show, that means
that you probably know more about it in

127
00:10:20.639 --> 00:10:24.720
that way that Lee is talking about
than the average show. Really, I

128
00:10:24.720 --> 00:10:28.200
would hope. So, yeah,
I hope that that people are really interested

129
00:10:28.720 --> 00:10:33.600
in what you present, what I
present when our friend Alejando presents, um,

130
00:10:33.720 --> 00:10:37.240
we have other colleagues who are on
KGRRA who are doing the same thing.

131
00:10:37.279 --> 00:10:43.720
They just want to present information that
will that will kind of enlarge this

132
00:10:43.120 --> 00:10:48.279
scope of the information for the listeners. That that's really what we're here for,

133
00:10:48.919 --> 00:10:52.720
is to just help people to learn
and to and to maybe be entertained

134
00:10:52.840 --> 00:10:58.440
along the way, maybe be be
mystified along the way. I have been

135
00:10:58.519 --> 00:11:05.080
mystified by many things over the past
forty years, and I loved telling people

136
00:11:05.080 --> 00:11:09.799
about them, and I'm sure that
you have too, Yeah, yeah,

137
00:11:09.879 --> 00:11:13.600
yeah, all right, So you
also want to talk about what James was

138
00:11:13.639 --> 00:11:20.600
going on as far as the is
it called the phenomenon? Is that the

139
00:11:20.679 --> 00:11:24.519
name? Well, you know,
a lot of new television series have emerged,

140
00:11:24.600 --> 00:11:31.399
as you know, including the recent
History Channel show called Unidentified Inside America's

141
00:11:31.519 --> 00:11:35.639
UFO Investigation, and they had a
lot of things there that I felt were

142
00:11:35.720 --> 00:11:41.320
really well presented to the audience.
You know, we now know, in

143
00:11:41.399 --> 00:11:46.879
fact that there have been recent congressional
meetings with military pilots about their own close

144
00:11:46.960 --> 00:11:52.159
encounters with Unidentified Aircraft. So over
the last couple of years, as you

145
00:11:52.200 --> 00:11:58.080
know, I've been working on a
new provocative UFO documentary and yes, you're

146
00:11:58.159 --> 00:12:01.559
right, it's going to be called
The Phenomenon. I've been doing this with

147
00:12:03.080 --> 00:12:07.240
filmmaker James Fox. This will be
kind of the third film in his trilogy,

148
00:12:07.360 --> 00:12:11.720
his UFO trilogy. The first two
films were Out of the Blue and

149
00:12:11.759 --> 00:12:16.720
that was followed by I Know What
I Saw and now we're doing The Phenomenon

150
00:12:18.240 --> 00:12:22.480
and we have just in the last
few days, I will say, we've

151
00:12:22.519 --> 00:12:26.320
signed a contract with a major media
distribution company and we're looking to have our

152
00:12:26.320 --> 00:12:31.919
film released to the public, initially
as a theatrical release, by the end

153
00:12:31.919 --> 00:12:35.120
of the year. We're very happy
about this. Wow, So it actually

154
00:12:35.159 --> 00:12:39.399
will be out in theaters. You're
talking about that. Yeah, that's my

155
00:12:39.519 --> 00:12:45.919
understanding, and I've been I've been
pressing James for more information and it appears

156
00:12:45.919 --> 00:12:48.240
that part of the deal will be
to see how well will it do in

157
00:12:48.320 --> 00:12:54.039
theaters. And you know, I'll
be honest, documentaries don't do all that

158
00:12:54.120 --> 00:12:58.639
well in theaters, right, People
on fucking to to buy popcorn and coke

159
00:12:58.720 --> 00:13:03.600
to watch a documentary in a theater. So we're really hoping that this has

160
00:13:03.759 --> 00:13:09.559
some far reaching out to the public
so that it kind of rocks with them

161
00:13:09.679 --> 00:13:15.519
and people will resonate with this.
But part two, this would be well

162
00:13:15.559 --> 00:13:18.320
beyond going to a theater, maybe
to get this thing on a place like

163
00:13:18.759 --> 00:13:24.360
Netflix or the History Channel or other
places where it'll have a bigger outreach to

164
00:13:24.399 --> 00:13:28.159
people. We just want as many
people to see this because we've gathered some

165
00:13:28.639 --> 00:13:35.639
great exclusive information and interviews that won't
be seen in other documentaries, right right,

166
00:13:35.840 --> 00:13:39.799
And you know, I got to
say, I saw when Jeremy Corbell's

167
00:13:39.799 --> 00:13:43.960
Bob Blazar film went out. It
was in theaters in at least LA and

168
00:13:43.960 --> 00:13:48.559
there were people waiting in line to
see it. I was surprised to see,

169
00:13:48.600 --> 00:13:50.240
you know, that was maybe a
test theater or something like that.

170
00:13:50.320 --> 00:13:54.919
It's now on Netflix, but and
you know, listeners, of course no

171
00:13:56.080 --> 00:14:03.159
my mixed feelings about Bob Blazar,
but still that that was surprised at the

172
00:14:03.919 --> 00:14:07.399
turnout. And you know for that, well, well, I'll tell you.

173
00:14:07.440 --> 00:14:11.639
I believe it's my understanding that the
distribution company that did all the promotional

174
00:14:11.960 --> 00:14:18.759
for that film is the same company
that's working with us now and I'm very

175
00:14:18.759 --> 00:14:22.080
happy to hear that, because you
need the right kind of promotion behind you

176
00:14:22.200 --> 00:14:26.960
to get the public to realize that
there's something playing in their local theater that

177
00:14:26.039 --> 00:14:30.000
maybe you want to see. Hey, there are people in the chat room

178
00:14:30.039 --> 00:14:33.159
that are discussing now about you know, the the previous name seven oh one.

179
00:14:33.679 --> 00:14:37.240
Can you can you tell them why
that name was changed on this film?

180
00:14:37.720 --> 00:14:41.000
Well, the original title from the
movie, and it goes back five

181
00:14:41.120 --> 00:14:46.679
or six years ago when James started
working on this documentary. It was originally

182
00:14:46.759 --> 00:14:50.919
called the seven oh one and that
number came from of the I believe,

183
00:14:50.960 --> 00:14:56.159
of the nearly thirteen thousand UFO cases
that the military, the United States Air

184
00:14:56.200 --> 00:15:01.200
Force investigated in their Project Bluebook Day. He's back in the sixties, the

185
00:15:01.240 --> 00:15:07.399
fifties and the sixties of the thirteen
thousand, seven hundred and one remained unidentified

186
00:15:07.480 --> 00:15:13.000
or unexplained. So that was a
number that has always stayed that way.

187
00:15:13.000 --> 00:15:16.879
It hasn't changed at all. It's
always been seven oh one. So when

188
00:15:16.159 --> 00:15:22.639
this film started going through a variety
of hands, and James was always with

189
00:15:22.679 --> 00:15:28.159
it from the very beginning. When
it finally got to his very capable creative

190
00:15:28.159 --> 00:15:33.480
hands, he didn't want it to
be just recognized as seven oh one,

191
00:15:33.840 --> 00:15:39.039
and we came up with especially he
came up with the idea for the title.

192
00:15:39.240 --> 00:15:41.399
We had all kind of contributed what
we thought could be good titles,

193
00:15:41.840 --> 00:15:50.080
and the phenomenon basically came from one
of the early documents in UFO history that

194
00:15:50.200 --> 00:15:56.000
I'm always quoting that the General Nathan
Twining documents from nineteen forty seven in which

195
00:15:56.039 --> 00:16:00.279
he was with the Air Material Command
and he wrote a very famous memo that

196
00:16:00.399 --> 00:16:04.679
was classified at the time, and
within the memo he wrote things like,

197
00:16:06.080 --> 00:16:11.200
the phenomenon reported is something very real, not fictitious, and it's extraordinary the

198
00:16:11.279 --> 00:16:15.759
phenomenon. And we thought, well, yeah, let's use that phrase because

199
00:16:15.759 --> 00:16:19.919
in the beginning of our film,
we're going to be leading up to where

200
00:16:19.960 --> 00:16:25.240
the title comes in, and we're
leading into it in a very dramatic way

201
00:16:25.399 --> 00:16:29.480
that I won't give it away now, but when the title finally appears on

202
00:16:29.519 --> 00:16:33.480
the screen, the phenomenon, the
audience will go, oh yeah, I

203
00:16:33.639 --> 00:16:40.240
get it. Well, Lee,
thanks so much. And just once someone

204
00:16:40.360 --> 00:16:44.799
was asking our number of people were
asking, do you have an idea approximately

205
00:16:44.799 --> 00:16:47.200
when that You're just saying, by
the end of the year is that all

206
00:16:47.240 --> 00:16:49.679
you know right now? Yeah,
although we know as a timeline, we

207
00:16:49.720 --> 00:16:55.960
believe we want this to be distributed
ready for release to the public around the

208
00:16:55.960 --> 00:16:59.679
holiday time, which means that the
company is the company is going to do

209
00:16:59.720 --> 00:17:03.359
the distribution. They need to have
the final product of it from us in

210
00:17:03.400 --> 00:17:08.200
their hands about three months ahead of
time so they can do everything they need

211
00:17:08.279 --> 00:17:11.880
to begin to do the promo work
for it. So if we're going to

212
00:17:11.920 --> 00:17:17.400
be in theaters in December, they've
got to have the film by September,

213
00:17:17.559 --> 00:17:21.559
and that's around the corner. I
got it. All right, Hey,

214
00:17:21.559 --> 00:17:23.480
thanks so much. I really appreciate
you feeling in. It's always great talking

215
00:17:23.480 --> 00:17:27.519

220
00:17:42.240 --> 00:17:49.720
So my guest tonight Bruce mccabee.
He hasn't been on for I think six

221
00:17:49.799 --> 00:17:53.200
years or so, a long time, so it's really good to welcome him

222
00:17:53.279 --> 00:17:56.960
back. He has quite a background. We're gonna be talking about that.

223
00:17:57.039 --> 00:18:00.079
He was involved all the way back
in the Navy. When he was in

224
00:18:00.079 --> 00:18:04.680
the Navy, he was researching UFOs
um, you know, privately, So

225
00:18:04.720 --> 00:18:07.960
we're gonna be talking about that and
a whole lot more. Bruce, welcome

226
00:18:08.000 --> 00:18:11.599
to the show. Thank you very
much. Too badly had to go.

227
00:18:12.119 --> 00:18:15.359
Oh yeah, I know he's always
always a lot of fun. Um.

228
00:18:15.599 --> 00:18:19.720
So I'm gonna try to boost your
audio just a little bit. Um So,

229
00:18:21.279 --> 00:18:23.920
Bruce, Uh, you know,
since you have been on, you

230
00:18:23.960 --> 00:18:30.559
know a lot has happened in UFOs
in general, and I know that you

231
00:18:30.880 --> 00:18:34.279
have done a ton of work on
whether it's video or uh, you know,

232
00:18:34.359 --> 00:18:41.000
photograph, um, you know analysis. Your background has a lot to

233
00:18:41.000 --> 00:18:45.359
do with that. Can you,
uh, since you've been on, I

234
00:18:45.480 --> 00:18:48.240
have a lot of new listeners.
Can you give in a nutshell your background

235
00:18:48.279 --> 00:18:53.119
and we'll get right into your thoughts
and what's going on today and what some

236
00:18:53.160 --> 00:18:59.240
of the work you did in the
past. Well, I got I'm seriously

237
00:18:59.279 --> 00:19:06.559
interested interested in investigating the subject in
the late nineteen sixties at the time when

238
00:19:06.559 --> 00:19:11.240
the Content Report was going on,
funded by the Project Blue Book and the

239
00:19:11.799 --> 00:19:15.319
Air Force, and there was a
period of time there where you could talk

240
00:19:15.359 --> 00:19:21.079
about UFOs about having a bag over
your head. But that ended in nineteen

241
00:19:21.160 --> 00:19:26.519
sixty nine when the Air Force closed
the Project Bluebook and everybody, including mainly

242
00:19:26.559 --> 00:19:32.680
including the press sort of assume that
the UFOs had been explained and there was

243
00:19:32.720 --> 00:19:37.079
nothing to it and it was all
going away. And then in nineteen seventy

244
00:19:37.119 --> 00:19:42.960
three it was we're back. And
the summer, late summer, a flap

245
00:19:42.960 --> 00:19:48.920
of sighting started in the southeastern United
States, and sort of the flap sort

246
00:19:48.920 --> 00:19:53.200
of moved around towards the northeast somewhat, and there were a couple of settings

247
00:19:53.240 --> 00:20:00.480
that made national news, the Hixon
Parker abduction and had passed the Golugle Missippi,

248
00:20:00.160 --> 00:20:10.079
and Larry Point helicopter case north of
Columbus, Ohio. I also made

249
00:20:10.200 --> 00:20:15.200
national news, and it was unusual
for ufolks sittings to make it into the

250
00:20:15.319 --> 00:20:18.599
national news, and that was two
that did anyway. At that point it

251
00:20:18.680 --> 00:20:25.440
was clear to me that UFOs weren't
going away. I had joined Nightcap in

252
00:20:25.480 --> 00:20:29.599
the late sixties, and so I
was a familiar some extent with what NCAP

253
00:20:29.759 --> 00:20:33.599
did. That got me on some
of the UFO investigations. I went out

254
00:20:33.640 --> 00:20:40.519
with people who had done this before, and investigated a few cases, it

255
00:20:40.599 --> 00:20:45.279
was apparent that I was wasn't running
up against cases being people being nuts,

256
00:20:45.920 --> 00:20:51.720
are trying to hoax things, and
so on. So and after the nineteen

257
00:20:51.759 --> 00:20:56.960
seventy three I began doing my own
my own research work, I guess you

258
00:20:57.039 --> 00:21:04.039
could say, starting off bistically reanalyzing
the Special Report fourteen, a Project blue

259
00:21:04.119 --> 00:21:10.279
book that has been published about twenty
years earlier. I spent time on that.

260
00:21:11.480 --> 00:21:17.359
I tackled a photo case known as
the Minville photo Casementville, Oregon,

261
00:21:17.519 --> 00:21:22.079
nineteen fifty Paul Trent and his wife
got two pictures of an object flying by

262
00:21:22.119 --> 00:21:25.960
their farm. The image of the
object is large enough and clear enough so

263
00:21:25.960 --> 00:21:32.039
as either the real thing or a
hoax is no halfway point. And that

264
00:21:33.559 --> 00:21:37.480
was analyzed by William harmon And during
the time of the Condon study in sixty

265
00:21:37.480 --> 00:21:45.319
eight sixty nine, and he concluded
that he couldn't prove there wasn't a fake,

266
00:21:45.440 --> 00:21:47.960
but it seemed to him it was
real. And he said all things

267
00:21:48.039 --> 00:21:52.680
investigated seemed to be consistent with the
idea that this extraordinary flying object had gotten

268
00:21:52.759 --> 00:21:59.200
within the past them on the side
of the two trends and here it was

269
00:21:59.240 --> 00:22:07.599
in a multi page, hundreds of
pages document devoted to all sorts of studies

270
00:22:07.599 --> 00:22:15.000
of e fology from history to the
history of the subject, along with the

271
00:22:15.039 --> 00:22:21.079
histories of numerous sightings that they investigated
and so on. And this is the

272
00:22:21.119 --> 00:22:27.039
one sighting that William Hartman suggested might
be real essentially, And you would think

273
00:22:27.079 --> 00:22:32.359
that the funded organization, like the
funded study like this, funded by the

274
00:22:32.359 --> 00:22:36.640
government and carry out of the university, that if they came up with something

275
00:22:36.680 --> 00:22:38.839
positive, everybody else would jump on
it and see if they were right.

276
00:22:41.240 --> 00:22:45.279
But to my greatest surprise, nobody
jumped on it. So I jumped on

277
00:22:45.400 --> 00:22:53.079
it and to see if if I
could reproduce what Hartman claimed and also go

278
00:22:53.200 --> 00:23:00.400
beyond what he said. So over
the next well, from nineteen seventy four

279
00:23:00.440 --> 00:23:08.319
on about seventy seventy seven seventy eight, I did studies of the trend photos

280
00:23:08.359 --> 00:23:14.519
and all the things are going on
with interest of interviewing them and interviewing people

281
00:23:14.519 --> 00:23:18.799
who knew them, and doing all
analysis of the theory. This is all

282
00:23:19.000 --> 00:23:25.160
on a website I might give up
right now. It's brumac dot my site

283
00:23:25.240 --> 00:23:30.039
dot com. That is b r
u m Ac dot M, I,

284
00:23:30.400 --> 00:23:36.440
S, I, T E dot
C, M, BROOMAC dot mysite dot

285
00:23:36.440 --> 00:23:41.880
com and you can search the site
for various UH. There's other bankabytes,

286
00:23:41.920 --> 00:23:49.319
I guess of analysis of zillions of
sightings, ranging from the Trent Case Skylab

287
00:23:49.440 --> 00:24:02.119
three sighting UFOs by astronauts UH and
UH, the nineteen eighty six nineteen eighty

288
00:24:02.119 --> 00:24:08.599
six Japan Airlines case Flight sixteen twenty
eight over Alaska, the two thousand and

289
00:24:08.640 --> 00:24:17.480
four Mexican Air Force sighting over the
Utah Pa Pninsula. Lots of lots of

290
00:24:17.519 --> 00:24:22.799
stuff. Golf briefs fits in there, other things that many many people have

291
00:24:22.880 --> 00:24:27.799
never heard of. But anyway,
I started doing investigations of various thing that

292
00:24:29.119 --> 00:24:33.279
one of the most important ones that
I did, I lucked out, you

293
00:24:33.359 --> 00:24:37.519
might say, to be the person
investigating the famous New Zealand sittings when they

294
00:24:37.519 --> 00:24:45.880
occurred in December nineteen seventy eight,
involving people on boarding airplane and two radar

295
00:24:47.920 --> 00:24:53.680
engineers in the the radar of Port. Anyway, I wrote of a big

296
00:24:53.720 --> 00:25:00.759
report on that, and that sort
of led me through my contact with the

297
00:25:00.839 --> 00:25:07.880
CIA, which is another serious interesting
story. I might mentioned it since I

298
00:25:07.920 --> 00:25:11.079
was on with you, I guess
five or six years ago, um I

299
00:25:11.160 --> 00:25:18.119
published four books on the subject.
The flagship book is The flagship book is

300
00:25:18.160 --> 00:25:27.279
called the FBI CIA UFO Connection FBIICA
UFO Connection, and that's available at amazon

301
00:25:27.440 --> 00:25:34.279
As are the other ones. The
Obvection in My Family is another second book.

302
00:25:34.880 --> 00:25:42.839
Then Three Minutes in June, which
is the most complete study of the

303
00:25:42.960 --> 00:25:51.599
Kenneth Arnold case analysis of his descriptions, I'll tapped at plus Fred Johnson,

304
00:25:51.680 --> 00:25:59.160
who was a who saw these objects
flying overhead just after the from the can.

305
00:26:00.200 --> 00:26:04.279
And then the most recent book I
published called nineteen fifty two of the

306
00:26:04.359 --> 00:26:10.599
Legacy of nineteen fifty two, the
year of the UFO were I've been sort

307
00:26:10.640 --> 00:26:18.200
of reliving on Facebook stuff on the
year nineteen fifty two and most recently seventeen

308
00:26:18.279 --> 00:26:25.880
years exactly to the day before the
moon landing that we were celebrated last weekend.

309
00:26:27.640 --> 00:26:33.319
Yeah, figh house has appeared over
Washington, DC on the nineteenth and

310
00:26:33.440 --> 00:26:40.200
twentieth of June. Of July nineteen
fifty two, there've been a big build

311
00:26:40.279 --> 00:26:45.519
up of sightings throughout the whole United
States starting in April of nineteen fifty two,

312
00:26:45.000 --> 00:26:49.240
and by July nineteen fifty two,
Blue book was getting ten or twenty

313
00:26:49.319 --> 00:26:56.119
or thirty sightings a day, far
beyond anything they've ever had before. And

314
00:26:56.200 --> 00:27:00.079
then on Saturday, the nineteenth Saturday, the nineteenth June of July, I

315
00:27:00.079 --> 00:27:08.680
mean, radar unknown unknown radar targets
appeared over the Washington, DC area,

316
00:27:10.079 --> 00:27:14.759
and there were sightings of the radiar
targets of lights during the early morning hours

317
00:27:14.799 --> 00:27:21.960
of July twentieth. And so things
are happening seventeen years ago from today.

318
00:27:22.240 --> 00:27:30.160
Yeah, the twenty sixth um next, which would be seventeen years ago next

319
00:27:30.200 --> 00:27:34.920
Saturday, uh, where these objects
came back against stayed around for a few

320
00:27:34.960 --> 00:27:41.480
hours. They had had jets chasing
them, and it made a big flap

321
00:27:41.559 --> 00:27:48.319
in the press. The most important
outcome of that two tree minous concentration of

322
00:27:48.359 --> 00:27:55.039
sightings in the nineteen fifty two was
a press conference held by General John Sandford,

323
00:27:55.480 --> 00:28:00.519
the Director of Air Force in Diligence, on Tuesday the twenty I think

324
00:28:00.559 --> 00:28:07.480
it is of July nineteen sixty two. At any rate, his press conference

325
00:28:07.559 --> 00:28:12.640
lasted for over an hour, during
which time he said probably the most provocative

326
00:28:12.640 --> 00:28:18.400
thing he said was there were incredible
people making incredible reports, or to that

327
00:28:18.480 --> 00:28:25.640
effect, giving some level of credibility
to what was going on. Nevertheless,

328
00:28:25.680 --> 00:28:34.119
he tried to pawn off the radar
detections as results of also anomalous propagation due

329
00:28:34.160 --> 00:28:41.160
to temperature inversion. Yeah, and
the temperature inversion effect has an effect on

330
00:28:41.279 --> 00:28:44.240
radar beam going out. Radar beam
supposed to stay up in the sky,

331
00:28:44.799 --> 00:28:48.079
but if there's too much of a
radar too much of a temperature inversion,

332
00:28:48.440 --> 00:28:51.680
the radar beam will actually be bent
downwards and hits things out in the ground.

333
00:28:52.240 --> 00:29:00.480
And the only experienced radar controller I'll
be able to distinguish between appear to

334
00:29:00.519 --> 00:29:07.279
be targets. Yeah, better actually
reflections from ground objects and the and the

335
00:29:07.440 --> 00:29:11.960
same distinguished between those radar targets that
are not real compared to the ones that

336
00:29:12.000 --> 00:29:21.480
are, and the experience radar controllers. Years week, weeks and years after

337
00:29:22.160 --> 00:29:30.640
these events and General Stamford's press conference, they were absolutely confident that what they

338
00:29:30.640 --> 00:29:41.119
saw real hard targets. So not
no right radar effect due to the atmosphere.

339
00:29:41.400 --> 00:29:45.720
Yeah, Bruce, that's I'm some
frap. We're a little bit late

340
00:29:45.720 --> 00:29:48.400
for our break. We're going to
have to go into that, so hang

341
00:29:48.480 --> 00:30:18.240
in. Everyone will be right back. All right, Everyone welcome back.

342
00:30:18.559 --> 00:30:22.920
We're trying to work on the audio
here on Bruce's side. Hopefully it's a

343
00:30:22.920 --> 00:30:26.279
little bit better. Bruce, right
before we went to break, you were

344
00:30:26.319 --> 00:30:33.400
talking about Um Sandford back in July
nineteen fifty two talking about the radar inversions,

345
00:30:33.480 --> 00:30:37.400
and you said that people were actually
saying they were hard target, hard

346
00:30:37.440 --> 00:30:41.480
targets. You want to kind of
finish that part of it. Yeah,

347
00:30:42.039 --> 00:30:48.400
The rear controllers themselves testified many times
over the years that these are hard targets

348
00:30:48.400 --> 00:30:56.720
as far as they're concerned. Probably
the main importance of the event was Channel

349
00:30:56.759 --> 00:31:03.480
Sandford's press conference, where he tried
to explain everything is national phenomena, and

350
00:31:03.640 --> 00:31:06.440
as far as the radar targets were
concerned, he was saying, it was

351
00:31:06.480 --> 00:31:08.839
all sort of like hot air,
at least as the terminology picked up by

352
00:31:08.880 --> 00:31:14.319
the by the press. It was
all hot air, and it's becoming It

353
00:31:14.440 --> 00:31:18.519
became important for the sort of the
policy of the Air Force took towards UFOs

354
00:31:18.559 --> 00:31:22.440
from then on, mainly that there
was nothing to it. There was no

355
00:31:22.640 --> 00:31:26.440
threat to the United States. Forget
it. Don't tell us anything we don't

356
00:31:26.480 --> 00:31:32.519
want to know about UFOs and the
Air Force. Nevertheless, continue to investigate

357
00:31:32.559 --> 00:31:34.799
because they had sort of had to
fulfill his duty to prove that there was

358
00:31:34.880 --> 00:31:40.720
nothing in the sky could hurt the
United States. But anyway, that was

359
00:31:41.359 --> 00:31:47.920
nineteen sixty two or seventeen years ago, and were still struggling under the hot

360
00:31:47.960 --> 00:31:55.640
air UH syndrome, he might say, um, yeah, right now and

361
00:31:55.880 --> 00:32:00.319
back. A lot of people will
look at the images of the Capitol Building

362
00:32:00.839 --> 00:32:05.759
with the lights over it, and
that actually is uh, that's actually an

363
00:32:05.799 --> 00:32:08.839
inversion of lights, isn't it up
in the sky that that picture that you

364
00:32:09.079 --> 00:32:13.400
so often see it has nothing to
do with UFOs, even though it was

365
00:32:13.400 --> 00:32:16.599
happening at that time. Am I
right about that? Well? I can't

366
00:32:16.599 --> 00:32:24.799
imagine an inversion of lights as lights
on the ground scene somehow by the closest

367
00:32:24.799 --> 00:32:30.799
you can get would be a mirage, and the angular shame separation between the

368
00:32:30.880 --> 00:32:35.640
object of the mirage and the mirage
imast itself has to be less than a

369
00:32:35.680 --> 00:32:43.480
degree uh to the area. So
these images of lights of the cattle many

370
00:32:43.480 --> 00:32:51.440
degrees of over the horizontal. So
I don't know about these pictures that I

371
00:32:51.519 --> 00:33:00.960
have been floating around the robb buying
classicattle. Um, but amage, that's

372
00:33:01.000 --> 00:33:06.799
for sure. Yeah, yeah,
I was loosely calling it an inversion just

373
00:33:06.880 --> 00:33:09.279
because I didn't know what to call
it. Um, you know, it's

374
00:33:09.319 --> 00:33:14.400
not you know, it's not like
a lens flare or anything like that.

375
00:33:14.440 --> 00:33:20.319
But it was you know those pictures
of that people see online if you search

376
00:33:20.400 --> 00:33:23.640
for nineteen fifty two, you know, UFOs over Washington, that's what you'll

377
00:33:23.680 --> 00:33:28.880
come up within. It basically lines
up with the street lights perfectly up in

378
00:33:28.880 --> 00:33:31.920
the sky. However that was done. I have no idea, but um,

379
00:33:32.039 --> 00:33:37.759
those aren't. That's a single picture
you're talking about, Yes, yeah,

380
00:33:37.839 --> 00:33:43.039
yeah, I'm talking about a movie, a movie of lights moving past

381
00:33:43.119 --> 00:33:47.200
the Forster right, moving past the
Capital. Oh okay, I think I've

382
00:33:47.240 --> 00:33:54.160
seen that as well. Well wow, yeah, but that was really the

383
00:33:54.200 --> 00:33:59.720
picture here, the picture you're talking
about, taking from the sort of rear

384
00:34:00.000 --> 00:34:05.319
the Capitol building looking towards the Capitol
and seen lights up in the stop in

385
00:34:05.359 --> 00:34:09.599
the sky and very bright lights are
greatly over exposed at ground level. Those

386
00:34:09.639 --> 00:34:15.280
are known as as flares lens slayers, where they get a reflection in the

387
00:34:15.599 --> 00:34:21.679
optics with the camera reflection that takes
some light from an actual light, so

388
00:34:21.840 --> 00:34:25.960
it's extremely bright and reflects it over
to some angle away from the center of

389
00:34:27.000 --> 00:34:31.519
the photo, making a dimmer image
which is usually not seen. What can

390
00:34:31.559 --> 00:34:37.559
be seen if there's a dark background, then the flare can be seen on

391
00:34:37.719 --> 00:34:42.199
superimposed out of the background. But
anyway, the picture you're talking about I'm

392
00:34:42.239 --> 00:34:45.599
familiar with, and as I said, that's a result of lens slayers causing

393
00:34:46.119 --> 00:34:51.159
reflection images that appear in the sky
but are not actually in the sky,

394
00:34:52.440 --> 00:34:55.199
right right, So actually I had
it when I said it wasn't lens flares,

395
00:34:55.400 --> 00:35:00.280
I was wrong. It actually is
lens flares. But yeah, we're

396
00:35:00.280 --> 00:35:04.440
both talking about the same picture,
which is which is interesting. But fifty

397
00:35:04.480 --> 00:35:07.159
two was really, um, you
know, a year where uh there was

398
00:35:07.519 --> 00:35:12.159
a crazy amount of sightings. Um, you know, to the point where

399
00:35:12.679 --> 00:35:16.679
you know it did bring that uh
uh you know, it did did change

400
00:35:16.679 --> 00:35:21.400
a lot of things as far as
people taking a hard look at it.

401
00:35:21.639 --> 00:35:25.239
And uh, you know, same
FBI file, the FBI file which I

402
00:35:25.239 --> 00:35:31.119
got nineteen seventy seven and which is
so summarized in the book The FBI CIA.

403
00:35:32.400 --> 00:35:37.960
The FBI file has some documents and
the fall of nineteen well, one

404
00:35:38.000 --> 00:35:45.079
document on the same day as Cinel
Sanford's UM press conference UH, the FBI

405
00:35:45.119 --> 00:35:53.719
Asian went to the Office of Air
Force Intelligence UH and UH the interview find

406
00:35:53.719 --> 00:35:58.440
out what was going on with all
these sightings, and the Asian was told

407
00:35:58.599 --> 00:36:01.960
a couple of percent five pc out
of the sightings could not be explained and

408
00:36:02.239 --> 00:36:07.840
that some top level Air Force people
were seriously considering interplanetary ships to use a

409
00:36:07.920 --> 00:36:15.039
phraseology that's in the document. So
that was pretty interesting. And also in

410
00:36:15.199 --> 00:36:19.119
nineteen fifty two there were so many
sightings the CIA got involved, and that

411
00:36:19.320 --> 00:36:28.800
was that summarized also in my book. Those were a lot of sightings and

412
00:36:29.199 --> 00:36:35.039
things that happened in the fifties.
The last part of the book discusses my

413
00:36:35.760 --> 00:36:40.320
direct interactions with the CIA, which
began in nineteen seventy nine when I was

414
00:36:40.400 --> 00:36:46.920
looking for some help and analyzing the
radar detections in the New Zealand sightings of

415
00:36:47.000 --> 00:36:52.920
December seventy eight, and I went
it was it was suggested by a person

416
00:36:53.119 --> 00:36:57.440
I knew that I could go to
the CIA maybe and get some help on

417
00:36:57.599 --> 00:37:05.039
radar, and so I went there
and I explained to about half a dozen

418
00:37:05.159 --> 00:37:09.320
gentlemen who sat there listening what I
knew about the those Eveland sightings, and

419
00:37:10.880 --> 00:37:15.599
later on, I oh, I
guess I visited the CIA two or three

420
00:37:15.679 --> 00:37:21.679
times and I need seventy nine.
Got some information, but it really didn't

421
00:37:21.719 --> 00:37:27.719
make much make much of an impression
on me, and I never expected to

422
00:37:27.760 --> 00:37:30.960
go back there again. But just
so. Half of the five years later,

423
00:37:31.000 --> 00:37:35.559
I got a phone call from a
CIA guy who was interested in the

424
00:37:35.679 --> 00:37:39.000
Navy work I was doing. All
his UFO stuff was independent of the Navy.

425
00:37:39.079 --> 00:37:44.239
Of course, the Navy work I
was doing at that time was generating

426
00:37:44.400 --> 00:37:50.000
underwater sound using high power lasers.
High polaser beam is sapping the water to

427
00:37:50.159 --> 00:37:58.239
create sound, and this CIA agent
had been studying comparable paper papers out of

428
00:37:58.280 --> 00:38:01.480
the Soviet Union. He wanted to
know whether we were keeping up with the

429
00:38:01.519 --> 00:38:08.400
Russians or not, and so he
contacted me and I went there. Well.

430
00:38:08.840 --> 00:38:13.079
On the first phone call he asked
me if I could do it.

431
00:38:13.280 --> 00:38:15.800
I said, you are happy to
give a description of what we're doing,

432
00:38:16.440 --> 00:38:22.159
and a few hours later he called
it up with details on when I should

433
00:38:22.199 --> 00:38:28.920
be there and all that, and
hey. He then after, after talking

434
00:38:28.960 --> 00:38:30.280
of the business, he then says, I understand you've been here before,

435
00:38:31.000 --> 00:38:35.199
and my job nearly hit the floor
because I had not intended to say anything

436
00:38:35.239 --> 00:38:42.199
about being at the CIA to discuss
UFOs. So my cover had been blown,

437
00:38:42.239 --> 00:38:46.639
you might say. For the next
ten years or so, I had

438
00:38:46.760 --> 00:38:53.400
considerable interaction with this guy on the
on the UFO subject. At the same

439
00:38:53.440 --> 00:39:01.519
time we were talking about laser generated
underwater sound. Uh did was there?

440
00:39:02.000 --> 00:39:08.039
There was someone that contacted me one
time that thought that you may have actually

441
00:39:08.159 --> 00:39:16.480
worked for the CIA involving UFOs.
Uh in some like private capacity. Um

442
00:39:16.920 --> 00:39:22.960
was that just? Is that just
a rumor? Uh? Well, I

443
00:39:22.079 --> 00:39:29.800
didn't work for the CIA in the
implication of getting paid or something like that.

444
00:39:30.559 --> 00:39:37.760
I shared with them some information that
I got this this guy who was

445
00:39:37.800 --> 00:39:43.400
apparently interested in the subject himself.
Like virtually every in defense situation or whatever

446
00:39:43.519 --> 00:39:46.239
I went to over the years that
I was with the Navy, there were

447
00:39:46.280 --> 00:39:52.679
people who were interested in this subject
and they were talking talking about it and

448
00:39:52.840 --> 00:40:00.760
whispering tones. Yeah, nobody,
nobody was over the interested, you might

449
00:40:00.880 --> 00:40:02.719
say. But you would find out
that there would be a little group of

450
00:40:02.760 --> 00:40:07.280
people who would get together away and
that happened just about every defensive solation that

451
00:40:07.400 --> 00:40:12.599
I was at. Bruce. Someone
wanted to know what the laser sound was

452
00:40:12.679 --> 00:40:20.000
actually for. We were investigating this
for a number of things, but one

453
00:40:20.039 --> 00:40:24.639
of the big east was anti anti
submarine warfare ASW, where you could use

454
00:40:24.760 --> 00:40:30.440
the laser beam from an airplane beaming
down onto the surface of the water,

455
00:40:30.280 --> 00:40:34.880
generate sound of the surface of the
water that goes down into the water and

456
00:40:35.079 --> 00:40:39.000
those down where some submarine with a
sensitive hydrophone can be listening, and you

457
00:40:39.079 --> 00:40:47.159
could send a signal from the airplane
directly to the submarine by using this interface

458
00:40:47.280 --> 00:40:52.559
method of creating generating a series of
pulses of laser pulses on the surface that

459
00:40:52.679 --> 00:40:59.000
generated a series of acoustic pulses in
a body of water underneath the surface.

460
00:41:00.000 --> 00:41:07.079
And there were also potential potentiality for
using for searching out for minds and other

461
00:41:07.199 --> 00:41:10.599
things like that. But that was
the that was the main driver, was

462
00:41:10.679 --> 00:41:16.719
the ASW situation, and that was
the interest also the CIA, because they

463
00:41:16.800 --> 00:41:21.960
could see the Soviets doing the same
sort of work we were doing, measuring

464
00:41:22.000 --> 00:41:24.960
how far you could transmit a pulse
in the water if you created with a

465
00:41:25.239 --> 00:41:31.719
laser beam. Interesting, wow,
and is this something that actually was used

466
00:41:31.840 --> 00:41:37.159
or is used in any type of
way currently At the time we were investigating

467
00:41:37.239 --> 00:41:45.440
this, the Navy was looking for
a way to signal submarines anyone under the

468
00:41:45.880 --> 00:41:52.880
surface whenever when they had done something
capital and uh, we knew that they

469
00:41:52.920 --> 00:41:58.199
were working on a project called Sanguine. They had to do with sending low

470
00:41:58.320 --> 00:42:07.440
frequency like i'm agnetic signals out the
contact submarines. And there was so minor

471
00:42:07.239 --> 00:42:13.320
say between what we were doing and
what they were doing with the electromagnetic the

472
00:42:13.440 --> 00:42:17.480
project saying when methods finally ended up
working and so they didn't need to worry

473
00:42:17.519 --> 00:42:27.239
about generating sound with the from above
with an airplane. U. So now

474
00:42:27.280 --> 00:42:30.599
I got used. You might say, wow, well that's that's really interesting.

475
00:42:31.039 --> 00:42:37.280
So um, you know, um, since the last time we've talked,

476
00:42:37.320 --> 00:42:43.119
actually, there's so much more technology
out there today. UM, not

477
00:42:43.320 --> 00:42:46.280
really, I'm not really talking about
anything to do with photo or video,

478
00:42:46.400 --> 00:42:52.880
but all but uh in detection.
As you may, I'm sure you keep

479
00:42:52.960 --> 00:42:54.760
up on that stuff. For instance, the Navy, what the Navy has,

480
00:42:55.280 --> 00:43:00.559
and why the Navy is actually seeing
a lot more uman I've ever seen

481
00:43:00.639 --> 00:43:05.800
before in the skies because of the
different you know, the different equipment that

482
00:43:05.880 --> 00:43:09.000
they have that and who knows what
the future is going to bring as far

483
00:43:09.039 --> 00:43:14.559
as technology goes, have you been
keeping up on that? One of the

484
00:43:15.679 --> 00:43:21.320
key things in this recent revelation about
the Nimits events in two thousand and four

485
00:43:21.920 --> 00:43:27.599
November of two thousand and four,
Kevin Day, the guy who was the

486
00:43:27.840 --> 00:43:36.159
radar operator, I was telling me
about tracking these objects. And they had

487
00:43:37.119 --> 00:43:42.920
the spy radar, which is a
multi beam radar even tracks all different things

488
00:43:42.960 --> 00:43:46.920
at the same time at high speed
if you want. What he told me

489
00:43:47.000 --> 00:43:52.800
could not have been determined let's say
ten or twenty years earlier, before spire

490
00:43:52.880 --> 00:43:59.199
radar was available. I forget what
the first the first ship with the spire

491
00:43:59.320 --> 00:44:07.239
radar, the Princeton, I believe
sometime and uh, the late nineties.

492
00:44:07.519 --> 00:44:14.440
I guess it was, oh when
I first had the first the first ship

493
00:44:15.199 --> 00:44:19.400
but Tykeer on the road, tyke
Onto rogasticks in my mind, But that

494
00:44:19.559 --> 00:44:22.920
might not be it. At any
rate, it was it was well proven

495
00:44:23.000 --> 00:44:29.039
by the time it was being used
by Kevin Day on the on the Princeton.

496
00:44:30.199 --> 00:44:36.000
Using the spy rayar, he was
able to measure these obvious were traveling

497
00:44:36.039 --> 00:44:40.960
at twenty eight thousand feet altitude going
one hundred knots, which is which is

498
00:44:42.039 --> 00:44:47.320
a crash velocity of feet. The
air is so thin up there that you've

499
00:44:47.320 --> 00:44:52.800
got to go at high speed in
order to be able to get left alane

500
00:44:52.920 --> 00:44:58.039
up, shoving air down. Shoving
air down to high speed holds a plane

501
00:44:58.119 --> 00:45:00.800
up if you're not going fast enough, Shoving off air down to the hold

502
00:45:00.840 --> 00:45:07.880
the play up. But these things
were going along calmly, and when some

503
00:45:07.760 --> 00:45:14.760
F eighteen jets approached, they started
dropping downwards, and he said they had

504
00:45:14.800 --> 00:45:17.320
dropped down to the surface of the
earth the ocean about fifty feet, and

505
00:45:17.880 --> 00:45:24.400
he estimated point seven eight seconds,
about eight tenths of a second, they

506
00:45:24.440 --> 00:45:30.599
would drop from twenty eight thousand feet
to fifty feet. That's a considerable distance

507
00:45:30.639 --> 00:45:37.440
to travel in less than a second, four tenth of a second. I

508
00:45:37.760 --> 00:45:43.320
calculated if this were Newtonian mechanics,
where we were talking about it, and

509
00:45:43.519 --> 00:45:50.519
some object was pushing me, pushing
one of these things downwards to go halfway,

510
00:45:52.000 --> 00:45:55.920
accelerating halfway to get as far as
quickly as you came to the halfway

511
00:45:57.000 --> 00:46:01.760
point, and then decelerating from the
halfway point to the endpoint. And if

512
00:46:01.800 --> 00:46:08.960
you calculate like this, you come
up with some thousand geese or something like

513
00:46:09.039 --> 00:46:15.199
that of acceleration necessary to cover that
distance and from twenty thousand feet down to

514
00:46:15.320 --> 00:46:22.800
zero feet and covering fifty feet I
should say, covering that distance in less

515
00:46:22.840 --> 00:46:29.960
than eight tenths of a second.
It requires thousand a couple of thousand g's

516
00:46:30.360 --> 00:46:32.480
to get up to the speed that
you're reaching when you're in the halfway point,

517
00:46:32.760 --> 00:46:37.000
and then you slam on the brakes, I really mean slam on the

518
00:46:37.039 --> 00:46:42.079
brakes, reverse your reverse, your
thrust or whatever, and slow down so

519
00:46:42.239 --> 00:46:46.960
that you stop fifty feet above the
water. You can think of other ways

520
00:46:47.000 --> 00:46:50.800
of getting from point A to point
B, A lot of different ways of

521
00:46:50.880 --> 00:46:54.440
getting from from point A to point
B. But the halfway the halfway mark,

522
00:46:55.119 --> 00:47:00.840
accelerate to the halfway point, then
decelerate to the endpoint. As a

523
00:47:00.519 --> 00:47:05.320
gives you an estimate of what sort
of acceleration you have to have and it's

524
00:47:05.719 --> 00:47:08.480
huge. So yeah, they were
able to do these opects were able to

525
00:47:08.519 --> 00:47:10.760
do that, and then they sort
of meandered back up to the top.

526
00:47:12.079 --> 00:47:16.079
That's eight thousand feet again. Anyway, we were talking about the capability of

527
00:47:16.119 --> 00:47:20.719
the instruments to detect that, and
you wouldn't have been able to see that

528
00:47:20.800 --> 00:47:23.360
with the ordinary radars they had in
the old days where you know, a

529
00:47:23.480 --> 00:47:30.320
single beam is rotating around. Yeah, you're and you're seeing blips appear on

530
00:47:30.400 --> 00:47:35.320
the radar screen. Every type of
the beam goes around. M Well,

531
00:47:37.199 --> 00:47:39.599
with a spire ratar, you can
lock a beam, mom, And that's

532
00:47:39.679 --> 00:47:45.159
my understanding. You can lock on
a beam and just let the track whatever

533
00:47:45.239 --> 00:47:52.480
you're you lock it onto. That's
right now. Another you know, another

534
00:47:52.599 --> 00:47:57.440
point in in that in particular is
if you if you had any type of

535
00:47:57.519 --> 00:48:02.239
craft that could travel those speeds,
Um, you know, it would completely

536
00:48:02.320 --> 00:48:07.239
fall apart, um, just with
a thousand Jesus just not even never mind

537
00:48:07.800 --> 00:48:13.760
being being inside of it, um, just the craft itself. I would

538
00:48:13.800 --> 00:48:17.920
think it would shatter with that with
that force. Um. I mean,

539
00:48:17.960 --> 00:48:22.440
I don't know, I don't know. I'm just it just seems logical that

540
00:48:22.480 --> 00:48:25.159
it would. Well, it was
one of the things which occurred to know

541
00:48:25.480 --> 00:48:30.880
and Kenneth Harnold when he thought about
his saying back in June twenty four,

542
00:48:31.079 --> 00:48:38.559
ninety forty seven. He observed these
objects and they're very jerky motions as they

543
00:48:38.599 --> 00:48:44.679
traveled along as he compared with a
saucer skipping out on the water. And

544
00:48:45.760 --> 00:48:49.360
that's where the serm flying Saucer came
from. If you go back you read

545
00:48:49.480 --> 00:48:55.920
my book three Minutes in June and
you see you see the complete story of

546
00:48:58.320 --> 00:49:05.159
Kenneth Hanold and deep analysis of his
of his sighting. But he as one

547
00:49:05.199 --> 00:49:09.880
of his first thoughts was these things
were so jerky that they would h going

548
00:49:09.920 --> 00:49:15.159
at such a high speed and changing
directions that they would turn a human being

549
00:49:15.199 --> 00:49:22.039
into a mush very quickly. Yeah, So that's that's sort of the thing

550
00:49:22.159 --> 00:49:35.840
that these new recent admissions by the
the TTSA people, lou Alesando and song

551
00:49:36.719 --> 00:49:43.039
Um that these objects have very jerky
motion. David Fraber, who was the

552
00:49:43.679 --> 00:49:47.159
one of the f eighteen pilots to
see the thing called tick tack. So

553
00:49:47.320 --> 00:49:52.719
it was traveling along in a bossing
way like ping pong ball bomasing off the

554
00:49:52.800 --> 00:49:59.360
wall, where you have a very
sudden change in direction and you go along

555
00:50:00.920 --> 00:50:05.400
easy, some some velocity and sudding
a change direction to some other direction,

556
00:50:06.000 --> 00:50:12.360
and the change in direction with requires
an extreme extreme acceleration to do that,

557
00:50:13.079 --> 00:50:17.039
so enough to turn a human being
into a jelly. That was already way

558
00:50:17.679 --> 00:50:24.280
way back and ninety forty seven.
The first part of this podcast, wet

559
00:50:24.639 --> 00:50:32.159
Spiegel talked about channel. Nathan Twining's
letter talked about the phenomenon as being a

560
00:50:32.239 --> 00:50:37.639
real and not fictitious or imaginary,
and already by that time when he wrote

561
00:50:37.679 --> 00:50:45.159
that letter in September of nineteen forty
seven, they knew that these objects had

562
00:50:45.360 --> 00:50:49.840
very strange characteristics, such as being
able to suddenly appear as if dropping down

563
00:50:49.920 --> 00:50:53.280
from a high altitude, so someding
to be able to disappear almost like disintegration

564
00:50:54.440 --> 00:51:02.280
as they took off, picking capability
of high speed, and no recognizable features

565
00:51:04.079 --> 00:51:07.880
indicate it was like an airplane at
all. That's all all that stuff that

566
00:51:07.000 --> 00:51:17.199
has been emphasized as characteristics and recent
discussions by the CCSA people. That was

567
00:51:17.239 --> 00:51:21.719
all own back in nineteen forty seven. Yeah, so I asked, I

568
00:51:22.159 --> 00:51:25.199
asked the question, why don't we
learned last seventy two years. One of

569
00:51:25.239 --> 00:51:28.800
the things we're just about ready to
go in to break here in just a

570
00:51:28.880 --> 00:51:34.639
minute. But one of the things
up I have argued more or less when

571
00:51:34.679 --> 00:51:37.199
it comes to people saying, oh, this is just you know, new

572
00:51:37.280 --> 00:51:40.320
technology, could be China, could
be Russia, et cetera, et cetera,

573
00:51:40.320 --> 00:51:45.800
et cetera, I will bring up
the subject, well, what about

574
00:51:45.159 --> 00:51:52.079
people saying the exact same things or
exact capabilities you know, fifty years ago.

575
00:51:52.199 --> 00:51:54.760
How would you explain that, Because
if something was out for fifty years,

576
00:51:55.119 --> 00:52:00.239
we certainly would know about it by
now, you would think. But

577
00:52:00.400 --> 00:52:05.360
I think we're just about ready to
go into break here, so we might

578
00:52:05.400 --> 00:52:08.119
as well go ahead and do that. This is Martin Willis. My guest

579
00:52:08.199 --> 00:52:14.119
tonight is doctor Bruce mcabee, and
we'll be right back. Thank you so

580
00:52:14.280 --> 00:52:16.679
much for listening to the show.
Remember there's a new way to support the

581
00:52:16.760 --> 00:52:22.280
show, especially if you're not a
fan of PayPal, not through our subscription

582
00:52:22.360 --> 00:52:25.800
site, well you can do that, but also through Patreon. That link

583
00:52:25.960 --> 00:52:30.920
is right on our website podcast ufo
dot com. We also have a blog

584
00:52:31.079 --> 00:52:37.760
over there too. You can check
that out and it absolutely goes along with

585
00:52:37.920 --> 00:52:43.199
today's show. It has to do
with good old fashion UFO photo analysis and

586
00:52:43.320 --> 00:52:47.360
that's by Charles Lear. Check that
out. So we'll be back next week,

587
00:52:47.440 --> 00:52:51.400
but it will not be a live
show. It will be a repeat

588
00:52:51.960 --> 00:52:57.760
of back into twenty thirteen and then
we'll be back live as usual after that.

589
00:52:58.440 --> 00:53:00.079
Thanks so much, and remember to
keep your rise to the sky
