00:00:15.400 --> 00:00:31.960
Welcome to the UFO Thinktank Craigier with
your host Alejandro Rohan. It is I

2
00:00:32.600 --> 00:00:40.359
Alejandro, thank you so much for
being with me here again. And well

3
00:00:40.960 --> 00:00:44.200
I've got some news for you,
of course, uh some of it you

4
00:00:44.240 --> 00:00:49.920
already know, and that is that
I have changed the name back to UFO

5
00:00:50.399 --> 00:00:58.960
Think Tank Radio. Some good and
some some uh some different. So the

6
00:00:59.000 --> 00:01:03.799
good news is is course that's UPO
Think Tank again. It's independent and I'm

7
00:01:03.799 --> 00:01:07.280
doing my own thing once again.
The bad news is, and this will

8
00:01:07.319 --> 00:01:11.719
be a bummer for some of you, Jason will not be joining us,

9
00:01:11.719 --> 00:01:17.040
at least in the foreseeable future.
I really really hope he does once again,

10
00:01:17.120 --> 00:01:22.040
because I love the guy just like
you guys do. And don't worry,

11
00:01:22.079 --> 00:01:29.120
we're still buddies. But this show
is independent of Open Minds now,

12
00:01:29.280 --> 00:01:34.000
so it's something totally separate, and
that he is still working for Open Minds,

13
00:01:34.920 --> 00:01:37.480
and at least we're now we're going
to not be able to work out

14
00:01:37.920 --> 00:01:41.400
him being on the show. So
I know, I know, it's a

15
00:01:41.480 --> 00:01:47.079
bummer. I'm really bummed too.
But the show will go on and we'll

16
00:01:47.120 --> 00:01:51.560
continue to bring you UFO news and
we'll continue to bring you excellent guests,

17
00:01:51.680 --> 00:02:00.599
including our magnificent guests for this week, who is none of others, then

18
00:02:01.159 --> 00:02:10.240
mister Kevin Randall. And this is
exciting because Kevin Randall, as you may

19
00:02:10.599 --> 00:02:19.479
or may not know, Kevin Randall, is one of the main Roswell investigators.

20
00:02:19.520 --> 00:02:23.639
So he's been doing Roswell investigation for
quite some time. Of course,

21
00:02:23.680 --> 00:02:27.719
we've had Tom Carey and Don Schmidt
on the show. He used to be

22
00:02:27.840 --> 00:02:31.960
partners with Don Schmidt in fact,
and then he went off. I think

23
00:02:32.000 --> 00:02:36.879
he did another two in Iraq and
then came back and started doing some more

24
00:02:37.240 --> 00:02:43.840
that's right in Iraq. Actually,
Kevin Randall has had a long career in

25
00:02:43.919 --> 00:02:49.199
the army. He's retired now as
a lieutenant colonel. He served in Vietnam

26
00:02:49.240 --> 00:02:53.479
as a helicopter pilot. In Iraq, he was a battalion intelligence officer,

27
00:02:54.319 --> 00:03:00.520
and so he's a busy fellow.
In fact, he studied in journal originally.

28
00:03:01.560 --> 00:03:07.680
He's also got a master's and a
PhD in psychology, and he's got

29
00:03:07.719 --> 00:03:13.439
a master's in military studies. But
he really went on to be more of

30
00:03:13.479 --> 00:03:17.199
a journalist and author. So he's
written sci fi. He's written a lot

31
00:03:17.199 --> 00:03:23.520
of different stuff and he's been into
UFOs for a while, and we're going

32
00:03:23.599 --> 00:03:27.840
to talk to him about his origin
stories. I've talked about this before.

33
00:03:28.120 --> 00:03:30.439
I love to talk to people about, you know, how they got started

34
00:03:31.000 --> 00:03:36.479
in the UFO field. I call
it kind of an origin story because it's

35
00:03:36.560 --> 00:03:39.919
kind of like you know, with
comic book heroes, they all have their

36
00:03:40.360 --> 00:03:46.759
origin stories. And we'll get into
Kevin Randalls later on when we get him

37
00:03:46.759 --> 00:03:50.319
on the show. It's just surprising
to me, actually, because I haven't

38
00:03:50.319 --> 00:03:53.800
had him on before, and he's
such a great guests, such an important

39
00:03:53.800 --> 00:03:59.639
person in this field and everything that
I shouldn't certainly should have, and I'm

40
00:03:59.639 --> 00:04:03.719
glad that I have now. He
actually also was one of the writers of

41
00:04:03.919 --> 00:04:09.719
the movie that turned into the Roswell
movie. We've had Paul Davids on at

42
00:04:09.840 --> 00:04:14.439
least once or twice, but Paul
Davids was part of this movie and really

43
00:04:14.560 --> 00:04:18.240
kind of produced it and helped put
it together. But it was a work

44
00:04:18.240 --> 00:04:23.959
of Kevin Randall and Don Schmidt that
they took to make the movie, and

45
00:04:24.000 --> 00:04:29.240
they actually got to be on the
set and consultants. If you're not aware,

46
00:04:29.319 --> 00:04:32.360
this is a movie that came out
in the nineties and it starred Kyle

47
00:04:32.439 --> 00:04:39.120
McLaughlin and Martin Sheen, some very
famous people. So that's really exciting.

48
00:04:39.360 --> 00:04:42.439
So we'll talk to him about that
whole experience coming up here in a little

49
00:04:42.439 --> 00:04:50.240
while. However, before that,
as always, it's UFOs and the news.

50
00:04:50.360 --> 00:04:55.439
A lot of news this week.
There's been a lot going on,

51
00:04:55.959 --> 00:05:02.160
so we have a whole lot to
talk about big stories. But this one

52
00:05:02.560 --> 00:05:09.000
is one I was particularly excited about, and that is that the Mars Viking

53
00:05:09.120 --> 00:05:17.279
robots found life on ours. But
this is not like the new rovers they

54
00:05:17.319 --> 00:05:27.639
have out there. This is the
Viking robots which were in You know,

55
00:05:27.680 --> 00:05:31.040
this was a mission that happened in
the seventies, so this data is thirty

56
00:05:31.079 --> 00:05:38.519
six years old. So essentially,
here's what happens. They there's some scientists

57
00:05:38.519 --> 00:05:44.519
took this data from the Landers in
the seventies and they looked at it again.

58
00:05:45.360 --> 00:05:48.240
The data in the past was kind
of written off. They looked at

59
00:05:48.279 --> 00:05:50.399
it and thought, well, this
could be a sign of life, maybe

60
00:05:50.399 --> 00:05:57.360
not, but it was eventually written
off. Well, some scientists have taken

61
00:05:57.360 --> 00:06:00.759
a new look and they're saying,
hey, wait a second here, this

62
00:06:01.600 --> 00:06:08.680
does, in their opinions, show
science of life, and this is you

63
00:06:08.680 --> 00:06:12.560
know it's above my heav's chemistry and
all this stuff, and maybe some of

64
00:06:12.600 --> 00:06:16.399
you understand it a little more,
but essentially that they did find evidence of

65
00:06:16.879 --> 00:06:26.079
some bacteria. So here we are
again with the possibility of the discovery of

66
00:06:26.160 --> 00:06:31.959
life in relations to Mars. What's
interesting here is that these scientists are pretty

67
00:06:32.279 --> 00:06:41.680
dang confident in their findings. But
this news has yet to really make a

68
00:06:41.879 --> 00:06:46.560
real big deal. It's gotten kind
of a round and maybe we'll see a

69
00:06:46.600 --> 00:06:54.600
lot more of it this week.
It was released by Discovering News, and

70
00:06:54.680 --> 00:06:57.199
this is just a brand new story. I mean, this just came out

71
00:06:58.040 --> 00:07:01.240
just Thursday, so hopefully we'll see
some more about it. But it's looking

72
00:07:01.399 --> 00:07:09.639
like the Viking lander could have found
life on Mars. Now that would be,

73
00:07:11.959 --> 00:07:15.079
of course, pretty dang amazing,
and I can't wait to hear more

74
00:07:15.120 --> 00:07:21.639
about it. But how interesting will
it be if you know, finally we

75
00:07:21.839 --> 00:07:30.439
have the answer that it indeed,
not only is life abundant in the Solar

76
00:07:30.480 --> 00:07:35.399
System, but it's on the very
next planet out there. Of course,

77
00:07:35.480 --> 00:07:40.279
not the closest. I think Venus
is closer, but it's our next door

78
00:07:40.279 --> 00:07:46.439
neighbor, for goodness sakes, So
pretty amazing news. I'm really looking forward

79
00:07:46.439 --> 00:07:54.800
to that more amazing news. Russia
and Siberia are in the news again with

80
00:07:54.959 --> 00:08:01.360
another UFO landing possible UFO landing.
Some finesses have described a bright, glowing

81
00:08:03.120 --> 00:08:09.959
light that fell from the sky and
fell somewhere in Siberia. Nobody's quite sure

82
00:08:09.000 --> 00:08:15.519
what this was. This was reported
on Friday and they're still looking into it.

83
00:08:15.800 --> 00:08:18.079
Of course, we've seen some other
things. Not too long ago,

84
00:08:18.399 --> 00:08:22.279
there was something tracked by the military. It turned out to be a bull

85
00:08:22.319 --> 00:08:30.360
eyed essentially just an asteroid. Another
object was found recently and that seemed to

86
00:08:30.360 --> 00:08:33.840
be some part of a rocket,
but this one is still as of yet

87
00:08:35.080 --> 00:08:43.000
unknown, so search teams are out
there and hopefully we'll have some news soon.

88
00:08:43.600 --> 00:08:48.159
But it is pretty interesting that we
have yet another possible crash of something.

89
00:08:50.519 --> 00:08:56.600
And that's not all. Red lights
in Texas are still a mystery.

90
00:08:56.679 --> 00:09:01.840
So we talked about this, i
think last week, where there were some

91
00:09:03.639 --> 00:09:11.440
flickering globes of light in the city. Now officials are saying that this is

92
00:09:11.559 --> 00:09:18.440
probably a hoax, so we're not
sure about this one, but they're still

93
00:09:18.480 --> 00:09:24.840
looking into it. But that's still
going on and that's made the news more

94
00:09:24.919 --> 00:09:31.720
interesting. However is this one.
This is a possible UFO crash, And

95
00:09:31.759 --> 00:09:37.320
this one's really strange. This was
reported on Thursday, and this was reported

96
00:09:37.399 --> 00:09:45.519
by witness and one of those witnesses
a second witness who was a police officer.

97
00:09:46.360 --> 00:09:54.120
So what they say they saw was
some huge green, glowing object the

98
00:09:54.159 --> 00:10:00.639
size of a whale, falling from
the sky and crashing into band Tom Lake

99
00:10:01.120 --> 00:10:05.039
in Connecticut. So I mean,
of course it would have made a splash,

100
00:10:05.120 --> 00:10:07.720
and of course if we get to
see more news about it, I'm

101
00:10:07.720 --> 00:10:15.080
sure they're going to use that headline
UFO makes a splash in Connecticut. Anyway,

102
00:10:15.480 --> 00:10:18.600
people are reporting this giant object falling
from the sky and landing in the

103
00:10:18.679 --> 00:10:22.639
lake. There have been people looking
for it and no one has found anything

104
00:10:22.759 --> 00:10:28.120
yet, but there are several writtennesses, including the police officers. So really

105
00:10:28.240 --> 00:10:35.000
interesting case. They're looking for it, but no one's quite found it yet.

106
00:10:37.000 --> 00:10:41.000
So kind of weird, very weird
one they're in Connecticut. I'm sure

107
00:10:41.000 --> 00:10:48.200
we're going to hear a lot more
about that. More news. Jets in

108
00:10:48.360 --> 00:11:01.320
England making sonic booms chasing the UFO. Maybe The Sun just reported that two

109
00:11:03.360 --> 00:11:11.480
RAF Royal Air Force typhoon jets flew
quickly across several counties, making sonic booms,

110
00:11:11.519 --> 00:11:15.960
waking people up and freaking them out, and witnesses have said they saw

111
00:11:16.000 --> 00:11:20.399
them chasing and checking out a UFO
and this UFO was sock shaped, they

112
00:11:20.440 --> 00:11:28.000
say, because it's there's actually a
picture in the sun and I guess it's

113
00:11:28.080 --> 00:11:31.879
kind of sock shaped. It really
kind of looks like a cloud up in

114
00:11:31.919 --> 00:11:35.279
the sky and you can see this. But witnesses said they saw this scene

115
00:11:35.360 --> 00:11:39.519
flying around, so that was the
news. Well of official spokes people have

116
00:11:39.639 --> 00:11:43.919
come out and said that when these
planes returned, they did not report any

117
00:11:45.039 --> 00:11:48.639
UFOs and that in fact, the
reason why they were flying around is that

118
00:11:50.320 --> 00:11:58.480
there was a civilian helicopter who said
that who accidentally issued a hijacked meet may

119
00:11:58.559 --> 00:12:03.480
day. So that's kind of weird. You know, I don't know how

120
00:12:03.519 --> 00:12:07.919
accidentally. You know, you send
out a mayde saying a mayda may day

121
00:12:07.000 --> 00:12:11.559
were being hijacked, We're being hijacked, and then oh, sorry, ar

122
00:12:11.639 --> 00:12:18.799
mistake. I think you would know
if you were being hijacked. That's just

123
00:12:20.000 --> 00:12:24.120
me, but especially on a helicopter. You only have like five people in

124
00:12:24.159 --> 00:12:28.639
a helicopter, so you pretty much
know who your guests are. I guess

125
00:12:28.720 --> 00:12:35.000
it. Maybe someone pulled out a
gun and pulled the trigger. They called

126
00:12:35.039 --> 00:12:39.000
the hijack line, and it turned
out that the gun was actually a lighter

127
00:12:39.519 --> 00:12:45.240
and they were only lighting up their
cigar. One possibility. I don't know.

128
00:12:45.480 --> 00:12:50.240
Hopefully we'll hear some more about this, because I really do not understand

129
00:12:50.120 --> 00:12:58.799
how you can accidentally issue a hijack. May day anyway, in response to

130
00:12:58.879 --> 00:13:05.080
the made a these two jets little
cross several countings in England, causing sonic

131
00:13:05.120 --> 00:13:11.440
booms, freaking everybody out. Some
people said they saw them chasing around this

132
00:13:11.600 --> 00:13:15.879
UFO that someone somehow got a picture
from, and it doesn't really say where

133
00:13:15.919 --> 00:13:20.559
this picture comes from, so I
don't know much about that. But they

134
00:13:20.679 --> 00:13:26.679
also disturbed some birds, I guess, some rare birds, and they got

135
00:13:26.679 --> 00:13:33.559
a little scolded for flying above these
osprey nests, which they should not have

136
00:13:33.600 --> 00:13:37.679
done because they may I guess,
caused the birds to abandon the nests.

137
00:13:37.720 --> 00:13:43.360
And then these poor eggs are not
hatched, so they got a goold scolding

138
00:13:43.399 --> 00:13:50.639
and they bloody well better not do
that again. Anyway. Moving on other

139
00:13:50.799 --> 00:13:56.960
news that has made a lot of
excitement, I guess I should say this

140
00:13:58.039 --> 00:14:01.519
week, I can't remember a way
to talk about this one either, you

141
00:14:01.559 --> 00:14:03.080
know, without my good buddy,
I can't remember what we talked about last

142
00:14:03.120 --> 00:14:05.840
week. But you know what,
it's okay to cover things a couple times.

143
00:14:07.120 --> 00:14:09.360
And actually I know we didn't talk
about this. And that is mister

144
00:14:09.440 --> 00:14:15.200
Lee Spiegel of the Huffington Post,
good buddy of ours. He wrote about

145
00:14:15.200 --> 00:14:18.759
this and added to it. And
that's UFO video from South Korea. It's

146
00:14:18.799 --> 00:14:22.799
a very interesting video. You see
this little white thing kind of floating along

147
00:14:22.879 --> 00:14:30.600
and then zips away. Benjamin Radford, I believe his name is from Discovery.

148
00:14:30.639 --> 00:14:33.960
He writes for Little Life's Little Mysteries, and he's kind of always debunking

149
00:14:35.000 --> 00:14:39.399
stuff. But he says he thinks
it might have been a water droplet on

150
00:14:39.519 --> 00:14:43.639
the window of the plane that kind
of was scooting along and then took off

151
00:14:43.519 --> 00:14:48.879
up the window. And this guy
video taped it and it looked like it

152
00:14:48.919 --> 00:14:54.360
was an object that is separate from
the plane. That's kind of a stretch.

153
00:14:54.399 --> 00:14:56.320
If you look at the video,
you know, this thing does seem

154
00:14:56.360 --> 00:15:01.519
to be separate from the plane.
It seems to be further away. It

155
00:15:01.639 --> 00:15:05.360
is very interesting. We did talk
about this last week because I remember mentioning

156
00:15:05.399 --> 00:15:09.480
that it was suspicious, also because
this YouTube account came up out of nowhere

157
00:15:09.559 --> 00:15:13.720
just for this video. But it's
a very interesting video, and I guess

158
00:15:13.759 --> 00:15:16.879
the person who took it is still
anonymous, but you're gonna have to take

159
00:15:16.879 --> 00:15:20.960
a look at it yourself and go
to the Huffington Post. But one thing

160
00:15:22.000 --> 00:15:26.919
that Leaspiegel did which is really cool
is that he interviewed David McDonald, the

161
00:15:26.919 --> 00:15:31.240
guy who runs mouffon about this.
He's a pilot himself, which just kind

162
00:15:31.240 --> 00:15:33.360
of see, you know, lots
of people are seeing things. He also

163
00:15:33.399 --> 00:15:43.720
talked to Richard Haynes, who runs
the National Aviation Reporting Center on anomalist phenomena,

164
00:15:45.840 --> 00:15:52.240
and Richard Haynes as a scientist who
started studying UFOs and a pilot and

165
00:15:52.279 --> 00:16:00.000
mainly they're looking for the effects on
pilots. And he also interviewed FA official,

166
00:16:00.120 --> 00:16:03.399
former FA official, John Callahan,
And you might have seen this gentleman

167
00:16:03.919 --> 00:16:10.919
on the Disclosure Project because he talked
about how when he was on the FAA,

168
00:16:11.519 --> 00:16:15.879
there was this famous incident in nineteen
eighty six where a Japanese airline had

169
00:16:15.960 --> 00:16:21.960
seen the UFO and reported that and
Actually this made big news back in eighty

170
00:16:22.000 --> 00:16:26.000
six. That's way before my time, but not Les Spiegels. Sorry Lee,

171
00:16:26.320 --> 00:16:33.440
But anyway, this made big news. John Callahan worked for the FA.

172
00:16:33.480 --> 00:16:37.559
He was an upper level, higher
level official. He says that Reagan's

173
00:16:37.559 --> 00:16:41.840
Science Advisory Board, people from his
board and others came to look at some

174
00:16:41.919 --> 00:16:45.240
of their radar data because they caught
this thing on radar. They took the

175
00:16:45.320 --> 00:16:49.080
radar data and told Callahan not to
say anything. Well, what they didn't

176
00:16:49.080 --> 00:16:52.679
know is Callahan had his own copies
of this radar data that he has to

177
00:16:52.759 --> 00:16:59.840
this day, and he showed it
at the Disclosure Project in Washington, DC

178
00:17:00.559 --> 00:17:07.200
in two thousand and one, the
press conference they had, and he's been

179
00:17:07.240 --> 00:17:11.319
on a couple of television shows talking
about that. But Lis Spiegel was also

180
00:17:11.359 --> 00:17:15.400
talking about pilots, and you know, Callahan plays into this idea, is

181
00:17:15.440 --> 00:17:22.720
that pilots often do not report UFOs
because they're in fear of being ridiculed.

182
00:17:23.359 --> 00:17:27.559
And I have a friend who that
happened to. You know, they actually

183
00:17:29.039 --> 00:17:33.119
questioned his sanity and didn't let him
fly for a while because he was into

184
00:17:33.240 --> 00:17:37.200
UFOs. So that's the point that
Haynes and these others are making is that,

185
00:17:37.559 --> 00:17:41.279
you know, pilots don't like to
report this sort of thing. So

186
00:17:41.839 --> 00:17:45.119
it's a great story that you'll have
to check out, a long story with

187
00:17:45.160 --> 00:17:51.440
some really good history and some great
interviews by Lee Spiegel. So that's all

188
00:17:51.480 --> 00:17:56.000
on the South Korean UFO siting.
Very interesting video. Check it out and

189
00:17:56.039 --> 00:18:03.920
see what you think. Also on
the Huffington Post, our good friend Leslie

190
00:18:04.000 --> 00:18:08.440
Kine has written a new blog,
and hers is an update on the Chilean

191
00:18:08.559 --> 00:18:14.440
UFO videos. She calls it getting
the bugs Out, and essentially what she's

192
00:18:14.480 --> 00:18:19.799
saying is that Benjamin Radford here again. Benjamin Radford interesting enough, you know,

193
00:18:19.920 --> 00:18:26.559
is really he's following the UFO news
out there pretty closely, because especially

194
00:18:26.559 --> 00:18:32.400
it teams Flee Spiegel's work, because
whenever a story is written about her makes

195
00:18:32.480 --> 00:18:36.720
the news, Radford is out there
kind of debunking it or looking for alternative

196
00:18:36.880 --> 00:18:44.480
answers prosaic answers as to what it
may be in the video. And for

197
00:18:44.559 --> 00:18:47.680
the Chilean videos, which we talked
about, of course we made a big

198
00:18:47.759 --> 00:18:52.240
deal out of them because the UFO
Congress is really where the video was shown

199
00:18:52.359 --> 00:19:00.960
first, and that was by General
Ricardo Bermudez, who's director of Chili's Investigation

200
00:19:00.039 --> 00:19:06.319
Group, an official group that's part
of their FAA. He showed that video

201
00:19:06.440 --> 00:19:11.519
at the Congress, and you know, this is a video where he told

202
00:19:11.519 --> 00:19:14.039
me backstage when we're setting up for
it, he said, you know,

203
00:19:14.119 --> 00:19:17.680
this is the most amazing video.
This video convinced me that UFOs are real.

204
00:19:17.880 --> 00:19:19.759
Prior to that, he said,
you know, maybe they were mistaken

205
00:19:19.799 --> 00:19:26.880
identity, but anyway, you know, Benjamin Radford said, what was probably

206
00:19:26.920 --> 00:19:34.160
seen in the videos is bugs.
But he was referring to the videos that

207
00:19:34.200 --> 00:19:41.279
the Huffington Post posted. The Huffington
Post posted three videos from one individual.

208
00:19:41.799 --> 00:19:48.759
What he neglected to add to the
story, which was in actually my Huffington

209
00:19:49.200 --> 00:19:52.480
Post story. But that's about it. I don't think Leslie Kane wrote about

210
00:19:52.480 --> 00:19:56.640
it. So to Benjamin Radford's defense, he might not known about it unless

211
00:19:56.640 --> 00:20:02.000
he went to SAFA site and actually
did some research, or got his talk

212
00:20:02.440 --> 00:20:04.279
at the Congress and did some research. That way, he would have known

213
00:20:04.480 --> 00:20:10.319
that there were actually seven videos in
total, seven different witnesses. So it

214
00:20:10.480 --> 00:20:15.160
wasn't all this one witness who took
this video. So if it was this

215
00:20:15.160 --> 00:20:19.480
one person taking the video, bugs
might play a role, he said,

216
00:20:19.480 --> 00:20:22.839
maybe even bees that were in the
area. So if you know, this

217
00:20:22.880 --> 00:20:27.640
guy's taking a video all day long
and there's bees flying around, that would

218
00:20:29.000 --> 00:20:33.960
be a possibility. But there's actually
several different videos from different angles of these

219
00:20:34.079 --> 00:20:41.400
objects, and the videos are similar. With these what looks like a metallic

220
00:20:41.480 --> 00:20:45.359
object often to this since you know, moving at extreme speeds. In fact,

221
00:20:45.519 --> 00:20:51.759
there are astronomers estimated those things moving
at thousands of miles an hour,

222
00:20:52.119 --> 00:20:56.079
and there are astronomers who are skeptics
and don't believe in UFOs. Are the

223
00:20:56.079 --> 00:20:59.680
ones who looked at this and said, wow, you know this is now

224
00:20:59.720 --> 00:21:03.920
a folks. These are some metallic
objects zooming around. So this is some

225
00:21:03.960 --> 00:21:11.279
weird stuff going on here. You
know, astronomers don't mistake bugs. I

226
00:21:11.319 --> 00:21:15.680
don't think I had. That would
be pretty satisfaated anyway, Leslie Kane is

227
00:21:15.720 --> 00:21:19.079
making the argument that, no,
my friend, mister Radford, I believe

228
00:21:19.160 --> 00:21:27.000
you are wrong. Those aren't bugs. Those are UFOs. So well,

229
00:21:27.039 --> 00:21:30.640
we'll see if Radford has a reply
to this, but I hope he does

230
00:21:32.119 --> 00:21:34.960
because I'd like to see what he
has to say. Mister smarty pants,

231
00:21:36.240 --> 00:21:38.680
you know what'd be interesting to get
him on the show. Sometimes I've wanted

232
00:21:38.720 --> 00:21:42.079
to speak it to him and see
what kind of guy he is, because

233
00:21:42.119 --> 00:21:45.720
I think I've said this before and
I'll say it again because i'd like to

234
00:21:45.839 --> 00:21:52.119
say it, but as a debunker, and you know, it's good to

235
00:21:52.160 --> 00:21:56.000
be skeptic and skeptical. You know, I admitted I'm skeptic about a lot

236
00:21:56.000 --> 00:22:00.000
of stuff, but that just means
that I'm taking a hard look at stuff.

237
00:22:00.440 --> 00:22:03.640
It doesn't mean I'm going to debunk
everything. And I don't debunk everything.

238
00:22:03.720 --> 00:22:07.599
Some people think I debunk a lot
and I apologize, you know,

239
00:22:07.680 --> 00:22:11.079
and I don't certainly have it right
all the time, but I'm just sharing.

240
00:22:11.319 --> 00:22:15.920
I gotta be honest with my audience
because I love you people, and

241
00:22:15.440 --> 00:22:22.599
if we're gonna continue our relationship.
Strong relationships are based off of trust,

242
00:22:22.039 --> 00:22:25.880
and you need to trust me,
and you know what, I'm not gonna

243
00:22:25.920 --> 00:22:30.039
lie to you, and you can
take that to the bank. Anyhow.

244
00:22:33.359 --> 00:22:37.079
I've always said that, you know, kind of a debunker someone who just

245
00:22:37.119 --> 00:22:41.640
debunks everything and doesn't want to believe
in anything. You know, history shows

246
00:22:41.720 --> 00:22:47.240
these people to be the big bulls, the big suckers, the bone heads.

247
00:22:47.759 --> 00:22:49.119
You know, when you look at
and I don't even know the names

248
00:22:49.119 --> 00:22:52.960
of these people because I don't pay
attention enough, but some of these people

249
00:22:52.039 --> 00:22:56.200
are rather famous. People said,
ah, they're Right Brothers. What are

250
00:22:56.200 --> 00:22:59.680
they crazy? You're not gonna fly
up playing up in the sky or what

251
00:22:59.759 --> 00:23:02.599
are you? Yeah, we're not
buds, We're not meant to fly.

252
00:23:03.759 --> 00:23:06.960
I don't know if they talked like
that or they had a similar accent,

253
00:23:07.680 --> 00:23:12.279
but that's a fun accent to kind
of portray this sort of person. But

254
00:23:12.359 --> 00:23:15.400
anyways, they're out there saying,
you know, you can't do it,

255
00:23:15.440 --> 00:23:18.640
you can't do it, you can't
do it, and they look like damn

256
00:23:18.720 --> 00:23:22.160
fools when the Right Brothers are flying
over him and saying, hey, hey,

257
00:23:22.240 --> 00:23:25.200
Bob, remember you said you could
we couldn't fly. What are you

258
00:23:25.279 --> 00:23:30.119
doing a fly? You're flying?
It's kind of Italian. Some of these

259
00:23:30.119 --> 00:23:33.759
guys were Italian. Actually they were, because there are lots of people to

260
00:23:33.920 --> 00:23:36.720
Columbus, you know, saying what
are you doing you can't fly to an

261
00:23:36.759 --> 00:23:41.519
America? Well, there'sn't automatica And
he did it. He didn't fly.

262
00:23:41.680 --> 00:23:45.519
Actually he took a boat. Because
this was a little while ago before the

263
00:23:45.559 --> 00:23:49.200
Right Brothers. But my point being
that These guys who say you can't do

264
00:23:49.279 --> 00:23:56.480
something look like complete bone heads.
When something is discovered that they say he

265
00:23:56.480 --> 00:24:00.440
couldn't be discovered, When something is
achieved that they say couldn't be achieved.

266
00:24:02.720 --> 00:24:04.960
So my point being, be the
hero. The hero is the guy,

267
00:24:06.039 --> 00:24:10.839
you know, the Einstein sitting back
there with this wild hair saying, oh,

268
00:24:11.000 --> 00:24:12.000
you know, we can do this
and we can do that, and

269
00:24:12.000 --> 00:24:15.240
everybody calling him a fool, and
he proves it and he does it.

270
00:24:15.359 --> 00:24:18.519
Those are the geniuses's. I got
an Einstein picture right here because I love

271
00:24:18.559 --> 00:24:23.039
the guy. He's a hero.
So, you know, skeptics, I

272
00:24:23.079 --> 00:24:29.880
want to say, be a hero, not a historic zero. You may

273
00:24:29.880 --> 00:24:32.799
feel like a hero right now because
you're like, look at these boneheads.

274
00:24:33.079 --> 00:24:37.400
They think this is going on and
there's nothing going on, and so you

275
00:24:37.440 --> 00:24:40.039
may feel like a hero now,
but you're gonna look like a damn fool

276
00:24:40.079 --> 00:24:42.640
down the road when some of this
kind of pans out to be real,

277
00:24:44.200 --> 00:24:52.039
trust me, buddy. More News
monolith object on Mars bump bump bum.

278
00:24:52.119 --> 00:24:57.000
So this is kind of you know, what's funny is I saw the stories

279
00:24:57.200 --> 00:25:03.559
about this rock on my that looks
kind of like a rectangular object there's a

280
00:25:03.599 --> 00:25:07.960
big shadow being cows. The only
place I've seen this story, and I

281
00:25:07.079 --> 00:25:11.000
follow all of the UFO stuff,
you know, as I'm proving hairs,

282
00:25:11.160 --> 00:25:17.960
as you all know, fairly closely. The only place I've seen this story

283
00:25:19.079 --> 00:25:22.799
is in these stories where it says
it's not anything weird, it's just this

284
00:25:23.039 --> 00:25:29.720
rock on Mars, and people are
saying that it's a giant monolith. Well,

285
00:25:29.759 --> 00:25:32.359
who are these people? What are
you talking about? They're not saying

286
00:25:32.359 --> 00:25:36.079
who these people are. They're just
saying, oh, these boneheads are calling

287
00:25:36.119 --> 00:25:38.720
this a monolith when it's just rock, and here we're proven it to rock.

288
00:25:38.920 --> 00:25:41.640
Who are you proven to this to? I don't know what you're talking

289
00:25:41.640 --> 00:25:47.200
about. Some people just here again
trying to look like they are proven everybody

290
00:25:47.200 --> 00:25:51.759
wrong. Anyway, it is a
very interesting picture, and I wish there

291
00:25:51.839 --> 00:25:56.759
were more details, because no one
goes into details this object. Okay,

292
00:25:56.960 --> 00:26:00.519
sure, And I never profess to
say, oh, there's a giant monolith

293
00:26:00.599 --> 00:26:03.759
on Mars. It looks rectangular.
They're saying it's pixelated, that's why it

294
00:26:03.759 --> 00:26:08.200
looks rectangular. But it's casting a
pretty big shadow, and they're saying this

295
00:26:08.200 --> 00:26:12.440
thing actually isn't very big, even
though it's got this big shadow. So

296
00:26:12.480 --> 00:26:18.279
I would love to hear the stats
because they should be able to determine that

297
00:26:18.880 --> 00:26:23.720
with the shadow, to tell me
how big this thing is, because sure

298
00:26:23.759 --> 00:26:27.839
it may not be big, it
may not be artificial, but it looks

299
00:26:27.839 --> 00:26:33.319
pretty huge. And even if it
is this big natural feature jutting up into

300
00:26:33.319 --> 00:26:37.000
the air on Mars, I'd like
to hear more about it because I like

301
00:26:37.119 --> 00:26:42.039
space and I like Space News.
Give me some facts here, baby,

302
00:26:42.680 --> 00:26:52.640
That's all I'm saying. Another kind
of silly story. It's not a silly

303
00:26:52.640 --> 00:26:55.359
story. It's a great story out
there, but they're putting a silly spin

304
00:26:55.440 --> 00:26:59.440
on it. They're talking about Hubble
Space telescope. He's a UFO. Oh

305
00:26:59.480 --> 00:27:03.920
my gosh, Hubble UFO. And
you go to these stories and there's a

306
00:27:03.960 --> 00:27:11.000
picture of another galaxy. So instead
of just saying Hubble space telecoachs sees another

307
00:27:11.039 --> 00:27:15.839
galaxy, a cool looking galaxy,
They ohs uf it doesn't look anything like

308
00:27:15.880 --> 00:27:18.960
a UFO. They're trying to say
that it looks like a UFO, and

309
00:27:19.039 --> 00:27:23.960
they're using that the marketing spin to
put UFO in their title to bring people

310
00:27:25.000 --> 00:27:30.039
to their site. When you see
just another picture of a galaxy. Now,

311
00:27:30.160 --> 00:27:33.240
I'm one of those weirdos or I
don't know. Many of you are

312
00:27:33.240 --> 00:27:37.559
probably space geeky enough to say to
think that every new picture of a galaxy

313
00:27:37.640 --> 00:27:42.400
is beautiful and wonderful and spectacular,
and this one is beautiful and wonderful and

314
00:27:42.519 --> 00:27:48.720
spectacular. But I'm sure people who
find galaxies pictures of galaxy is boring by

315
00:27:48.759 --> 00:27:51.319
now, because Hubble has a lot
of them, are gonna be like,

316
00:27:51.319 --> 00:27:55.319
what, it's another galaxy. Tell
me something new that ain't no UFO.

317
00:27:56.519 --> 00:28:00.440
Come on, so they're pulling your
legs. That's all I'm borning you is

318
00:28:00.480 --> 00:28:07.359
when you see a story on Foxnews, Space dot Com, MSNBC, all

319
00:28:07.400 --> 00:28:10.720
of these places are saying, oh, well, Space Silico got a umbo.

320
00:28:11.119 --> 00:28:15.680
Don't get too excited because they're just
talking about you got another galaxy with

321
00:28:15.839 --> 00:28:19.880
another boring name. By the way, NGC two six eight three is the

322
00:28:19.960 --> 00:28:30.319
name of this galaxy boring? Let's
call it something like, uh, I

323
00:28:30.319 --> 00:28:34.319
have no idea. Here's the name, Francisco. Love it all. I'm

324
00:28:34.359 --> 00:28:38.319
seeing someone on Facebook who's on this
page. His name is Francisco, the

325
00:28:38.440 --> 00:28:47.079
Francisco galaxy. That's cool. Let's
fly to the Francisco system. And go

326
00:28:47.200 --> 00:28:52.920
visit jose Planet. That's fun.
Those are some fun names instead of boring

327
00:28:53.160 --> 00:29:00.200
NGC two six eight three. Anyway, I have blabbed long enough, my

328
00:29:00.400 --> 00:29:04.880
friends. I apologize that it's just
me blabbing away. I hope you found

329
00:29:04.880 --> 00:29:11.440
it interesting. But what you will
find interesting is what's coming up, and

330
00:29:11.480 --> 00:29:17.640
that is my interview with Kevin Randall. All right, I am super excited

331
00:29:17.720 --> 00:29:19.640
to have, for some reason,
for the first time on the show.

332
00:29:19.680 --> 00:29:23.160
I guess we just get so busy. It's I've been really dying to have

333
00:29:23.200 --> 00:29:29.680
you on the show since the Roswell
event, but we finally have Kevin Randall.

334
00:29:29.880 --> 00:29:33.559
Hello, how are you? I
am fine, And I blame you

335
00:29:33.640 --> 00:29:37.680
for not being on the show before
because you never contacted me. I know,

336
00:29:37.839 --> 00:29:41.119
you're right. It is completely my
fault because things just, you know,

337
00:29:41.240 --> 00:29:45.759
twirl and run and everything's going crazy. And finally, though, I'm

338
00:29:45.799 --> 00:29:51.119
really excited for the first of hopefully
many times, because of course, you

339
00:29:51.200 --> 00:29:56.960
do a lot of research all the
time, yes, and I find it

340
00:29:56.000 --> 00:30:00.279
becoming easier and easier thanks to the
Internet. Now you have to be able

341
00:30:00.279 --> 00:30:07.000
to do and discriminate between the nonsense
and the good stuff, and and and

342
00:30:07.400 --> 00:30:11.480
that that really is just sort of
a comparison of various sites and seeing what

343
00:30:11.640 --> 00:30:15.200
makes sense to you and how it
all tracks together, and kind of relating

344
00:30:15.240 --> 00:30:19.720
one bit of information to another information
another bit of information so that you can

345
00:30:19.799 --> 00:30:25.920
kind of figure out what is good
solid information and what is just a little

346
00:30:25.920 --> 00:30:30.559
bit off off center, off kilter
m hm. And there's there's quite a

347
00:30:30.559 --> 00:30:34.119
bit of off kilter stuff out there. I've noticed, well, the problem

348
00:30:34.119 --> 00:30:37.960
with the Internet, and and and
and it's also one of the great things

349
00:30:37.960 --> 00:30:41.279
about it is anybody can put anything
up on the Internet that they want.

350
00:30:41.440 --> 00:30:48.039
So if they have real paranoidic views
of of the UFO phenomenon, if they're

351
00:30:48.319 --> 00:30:52.960
really outside the box on that,
they have the opportunity to put that stuff

352
00:30:52.000 --> 00:30:56.400
on the Internet. And those of
us that follow a little bit more traditional

353
00:30:56.440 --> 00:30:59.519
path in that we can look at
that stuff and say, yeah, well

354
00:30:59.599 --> 00:31:02.599
that's a little far out for me, but you know, it may key

355
00:31:02.720 --> 00:31:06.960
something in another bit of research I've
been doing and suggests something to us.

356
00:31:07.720 --> 00:31:15.480
The best example is this eighteen fifty
two story from a Scientific American about this

357
00:31:15.599 --> 00:31:22.200
metal vessel blown out of solid rock, and there was a story about about

358
00:31:22.240 --> 00:31:26.079
it, and it mentioned tubulkane,
and I was thinking, who's this tubulcane

359
00:31:26.160 --> 00:31:32.160
guy, and could check on the
internet and discover he's a blacksmith from ancient

360
00:31:32.279 --> 00:31:36.960
times and that it's become sort of
a Masonic symbol as well. And so

361
00:31:37.000 --> 00:31:41.119
then you wonder, what was this
story put into the Scientific American for some

362
00:31:41.240 --> 00:31:47.240
kind of communication amongst the members of
the Masons. And there was a mention

363
00:31:47.440 --> 00:31:52.720
of this professor who should be consulted
on this metal vessel that was found.

364
00:31:52.160 --> 00:31:56.799
And I thought it was just some
made up name, you know, sort

365
00:31:56.839 --> 00:32:05.720
of a character from from a story
or something, and I just, well,

366
00:32:05.799 --> 00:32:09.599
let's google his name and discovered he
was really a prominent scientist from from

367
00:32:09.599 --> 00:32:14.880
the mid nineteenth century, came from
Switzerland and had done a lot of work

368
00:32:14.920 --> 00:32:23.039
in anthropological and paleontology in the United
States. So without the ability to google

369
00:32:23.079 --> 00:32:27.000
this stuff, I probably would have
never found any of that out. So

370
00:32:27.039 --> 00:32:30.400
it's a wonderful tool, right,
That's what I love about it. And

371
00:32:30.799 --> 00:32:35.200
you know, not only can you
get your work out there more, but

372
00:32:35.240 --> 00:32:37.680
there's you can learn for people who
love to learn. You said you were

373
00:32:37.720 --> 00:32:42.880
watching a you know, a science
show just a little while ago. There's

374
00:32:43.000 --> 00:32:46.359
an endless amount of stuff to you
no longer have to go to the library

375
00:32:46.440 --> 00:32:51.839
and get an encyclopedia. You can
learn from all of this stuff, and

376
00:32:52.160 --> 00:32:57.640
it's never ending exploration and and and
and. In a similar vein, you

377
00:32:57.680 --> 00:33:05.079
know, the Encyclopedia Britannica had stopped
publishing a hard copy, right, And

378
00:33:05.119 --> 00:33:07.920
you think about that in one way
if that's kind of too bad. And

379
00:33:07.000 --> 00:33:12.039
on the other side of the coin
is now it's all electronics, so it's

380
00:33:12.079 --> 00:33:16.000
all there for everybody to get to, although I'm sure you have to pay

381
00:33:16.039 --> 00:33:20.960
a fee to use their stuff,
But I mean the Scientific American. I

382
00:33:21.079 --> 00:33:27.160
tiped in to my search engine Scientific
American June eighteen fifty two and found online

383
00:33:27.240 --> 00:33:30.920
somebody had put all of this stuff
online, and I was able to download

384
00:33:30.920 --> 00:33:34.759
the specific page that I wanted in
the whole article and everything about it.

385
00:33:34.839 --> 00:33:37.799
I'd already found it at in the
bound periodicals at the University of Iola library

386
00:33:37.799 --> 00:33:40.920
and had a copy of it,
but I just looked it up online and

387
00:33:40.960 --> 00:33:44.400
it was all there. Would have
been much easier than having the search to

388
00:33:44.440 --> 00:33:49.279
all those Scientific Americans to find it
when I started out on that many many

389
00:33:49.359 --> 00:33:52.559
years ago. Right. And we'll
get into some of that, because I

390
00:33:52.599 --> 00:33:58.480
know you know that your research in
the UFO phenomena has changed a lot.

391
00:33:58.960 --> 00:34:02.400
But I wanted to get into because
I haven't had you one to talk about

392
00:34:02.440 --> 00:34:07.279
this is I like to say the
origin stories, you know, the comic

393
00:34:07.319 --> 00:34:12.840
book heroes, I'll have their origin
stories and your origin story about how you

394
00:34:12.920 --> 00:34:17.519
got into UFOs. Were you bit
by a radioactive spider? Yes, I

395
00:34:17.760 --> 00:34:22.000
was, I knew it, and
I can shoot webs out of my hands

396
00:34:22.039 --> 00:34:27.639
and everything. Actually, no,
I've always blamed my mother for this.

397
00:34:28.239 --> 00:34:31.039
Oh, she was a fan of
science fiction, and science fiction, of

398
00:34:31.079 --> 00:34:39.119
course is talked about interstellar flight and
alien civilizations and alien visitation and that sort

399
00:34:39.119 --> 00:34:44.000
of thing. And it's not a
large step from science fiction into UFOs,

400
00:34:44.000 --> 00:34:49.639
which is about interstellar travel and alien
visitation and alien civilizations. And so she

401
00:34:49.760 --> 00:34:55.119
kind of fired that that spark in
me, and I got excited about UFOs

402
00:34:55.159 --> 00:35:00.840
because this seemed to be the reality
to the science fiction. And so I

403
00:35:00.960 --> 00:35:08.519
began studying UFOs when I was a
mere youngster so many years ago. And

404
00:35:08.599 --> 00:35:14.239
one of the things that in that
timeframe that always was coming up was the

405
00:35:15.199 --> 00:35:16.840
skeptics to the bunkers. The Air
Force was saying, well, nobody really

406
00:35:16.880 --> 00:35:21.880
sees anything solid. It's a vague
object to seen in the distance. It's

407
00:35:21.920 --> 00:35:28.480
some kind of a indistinct or anomalous
blob blob in the distance. And a

408
00:35:28.559 --> 00:35:32.199
front of mine's mother had seen a
UFO and I got a chance to interview

409
00:35:32.239 --> 00:35:35.760
her about that, and I had
a single question I wanted to ask,

410
00:35:36.440 --> 00:35:39.760
which was was it solid? Did
you get it was a distinct object?

411
00:35:39.760 --> 00:35:44.199
And she said yeah, I was
hovering about two hundred feet over the barn.

412
00:35:44.320 --> 00:35:45.960
She lived in South Dakota, and
it was about to hundred feet over

413
00:35:46.000 --> 00:35:47.639
the barn, and she got a
very good look at it, and it

414
00:35:47.679 --> 00:35:52.320
was very solid, and the edges
were very well defined. And that in

415
00:35:52.400 --> 00:35:55.960
that investigation, that's really all I
wanted to know. I wasn't really interested

416
00:35:57.000 --> 00:36:00.440
in much else about it. I
just wanted that bit of information was from

417
00:36:00.440 --> 00:36:05.559
there. It's all sort of spun
out of control into all these investigations and

418
00:36:05.599 --> 00:36:09.360
all these searches for additional information.
So you got it into this What have

419
00:36:09.480 --> 00:36:15.079
you had your own sighting? I
used to answer that question and say no,

420
00:36:17.239 --> 00:36:21.559
But I was a member at one
time of the Denver UFO Society when

421
00:36:21.559 --> 00:36:24.159
I lived out in Colorado was in
high school. When I was a teenager,

422
00:36:24.679 --> 00:36:29.320
and a friend of mine, Eric
Nevatni, and I would go out

423
00:36:29.400 --> 00:36:35.559
to the Denver UFO Society meetings.
They had a get together on a ranch

424
00:36:35.840 --> 00:36:38.519
south of Denver near Castle Rock,
and we were all sitting around in the

425
00:36:38.559 --> 00:36:44.039
evening around the campfire and we saw
a light travel overhead in a mean what

426
00:36:44.039 --> 00:36:45.239
would have been a polar orbit,
and at the time, there were no

427
00:36:45.320 --> 00:36:51.039
satellites in that particular orbit at that
particular time. It got directly overhead,

428
00:36:51.039 --> 00:36:53.119
it flashed once, and then it
continued on. Somebody at the fire said,

429
00:36:53.119 --> 00:36:55.199
oh, they're singling us, and
we're thinking, yeah, right,

430
00:36:55.559 --> 00:37:00.400
But I mean, that's the extent
of my UFO siding. It's not a

431
00:37:00.480 --> 00:37:06.360
very good one, and just the
light moving across the sky that could very

432
00:37:06.400 --> 00:37:09.119
easily have been a satellite, although
we checked as best we could and could

433
00:37:09.119 --> 00:37:14.679
find nothing that would have been in
that orbit at that time to explain the

434
00:37:14.719 --> 00:37:17.760
sighting. Nothing like the mole robust
sidings that lots of other people have,

435
00:37:19.280 --> 00:37:22.960
And that was already after my interest
in UFO, so it didn't really spark

436
00:37:22.000 --> 00:37:27.119
anything, right, But I think
that's kind of cool, kind of unique

437
00:37:25.639 --> 00:37:31.039
I fit in a camp with you
where I got into this prior to having

438
00:37:31.079 --> 00:37:34.719
a sighting, So it wasn't a
setting because a lot of people, of

439
00:37:34.719 --> 00:37:37.800
course, are really motivated and into
all of this because they had their own

440
00:37:37.840 --> 00:37:45.000
spectacular sighting like you talked about earlier
over the barn, But I was similar.

441
00:37:45.079 --> 00:37:46.840
I didn't have my own sighting before
I got into all of this.

442
00:37:50.079 --> 00:37:53.679
I think that that the if you're
a skeptic or debunker and you have a

443
00:37:53.719 --> 00:38:00.199
sighting it and it's not this ambiguous
stimuli, but something very distinct, and

444
00:38:00.280 --> 00:38:04.159
you get a good look at it
and you know it's not a medior and

445
00:38:04.239 --> 00:38:08.039
you know it's not whether related phenomenon, it's not some kind of advanced aircraft.

446
00:38:08.079 --> 00:38:13.719
You know it's something other worldly based
on what it does and what it

447
00:38:13.760 --> 00:38:16.280
looks like. That's pretty much going
to change your mind. You may not

448
00:38:16.360 --> 00:38:22.519
be able to prove to your fellow
debunkers or skeptics that these things are extraterrestrial,

449
00:38:22.559 --> 00:38:25.119
but in your own mind, you
now know what the truth is because

450
00:38:25.119 --> 00:38:34.320
you've had this sighting. So then
roswell, how long have you had you

451
00:38:35.039 --> 00:38:45.480
been I guess actively researching UFOs before
you became a Roswell researcher. I look

452
00:38:45.559 --> 00:38:47.559
at it from the point of view, and I did a book called Reflections

453
00:38:47.559 --> 00:38:52.079
of a UFO Investigator, and it
kind of lays all this stuff out.

454
00:38:52.679 --> 00:38:57.800
But after I left home, after
I graduated from high school and joined the

455
00:38:57.880 --> 00:39:01.920
Army, I had an opportunity to
invest to gate a number of sidings based

456
00:39:01.920 --> 00:39:07.320
on where I happened to be stationed
with the army, and so I was

457
00:39:08.119 --> 00:39:13.679
studying all I was studying these things
all along. So you can say that

458
00:39:13.800 --> 00:39:19.559
the first sort of traveling I had
done to investigate a UFO siding was back

459
00:39:19.599 --> 00:39:22.599
in nineteen sixty eight. I got
a three day pass from the Army and

460
00:39:22.639 --> 00:39:25.960
had an opportunity to go talk to
Carolayne Watts, whose story I think is

461
00:39:27.199 --> 00:39:30.559
probably a hoax. He said it
was a hoax, but then then he

462
00:39:30.599 --> 00:39:35.440
claimed the CIA made him say that. When we transferred from Fort Walders,

463
00:39:35.519 --> 00:39:38.280
Texas to Fort Rucker, Alabama,
a couple of friends of mine went down

464
00:39:38.280 --> 00:39:43.639
into Florida and we had a chance
to investigate the Booksville siding down there.

465
00:39:44.280 --> 00:39:49.440
So you know, we're talking about
nineteen sixty seven nineteen sixty eight timeframe.

466
00:39:49.880 --> 00:39:55.199
So I was actively investigating outside my
comfort zone, you might say, back

467
00:39:55.239 --> 00:40:00.960
that long ago. It was in
nineteen eighty nine that I was action nineteen

468
00:40:00.000 --> 00:40:02.679
eighty eight, I'm sorry, nineteen
eighty eight that I was invited into the

469
00:40:04.559 --> 00:40:12.079
QPHOS investigation of the Roswell case.
So twenty years prior to getting involved in

470
00:40:10.320 --> 00:40:15.360
the in Roswell investigations, I had
been investigating UFOs around the country and in

471
00:40:15.400 --> 00:40:21.239
different arenas, So twenty years before
that, and then Roswell took up a

472
00:40:21.239 --> 00:40:23.079
great deal of time. But at
the same time I was doing other things

473
00:40:23.119 --> 00:40:29.199
as well and looking into other cases. Gotcha. And then your partnership with

474
00:40:29.280 --> 00:40:31.760
Don Schmidt, I believe, if
I remember in Roswell, you told the

475
00:40:31.840 --> 00:40:38.559
story that it began with a debate. Yes, yes, I didn't know

476
00:40:38.679 --> 00:40:43.880
Don Schmidt from Adam. But there
was a science fiction convention in Milwaukee,

477
00:40:44.360 --> 00:40:47.960
and there were going to be three
science fiction writers arguing with the two guys

478
00:40:49.039 --> 00:40:51.960
up from Quepos about the reality of
UFOs, and I was going to be

479
00:40:52.000 --> 00:40:55.960
with the science fiction writers talking about
this, and when Don got there,

480
00:40:57.159 --> 00:40:59.239
the other guy couldn't make it,
so it was going to be three to

481
00:40:59.320 --> 00:41:01.920
one. I didn't think that was
fair, and in the debate. What

482
00:41:01.960 --> 00:41:06.639
you do is argue the best information
you have. You don't necessarily provide information

483
00:41:06.760 --> 00:41:10.719
to the opposition, as opposed to
an investigation where you want all the information

484
00:41:10.880 --> 00:41:14.960
good, bad, or indifferent.
So I switched sides. So I said,

485
00:41:15.239 --> 00:41:19.440
I'll argue with him on the reality
of UFOs against Fred Pohle, and

486
00:41:19.480 --> 00:41:21.840
I think George R. Martin,
I think with two other guys. I'm

487
00:41:21.880 --> 00:41:24.599
not sure about George Martin, but
I know I know Fred Pohle was one

488
00:41:24.599 --> 00:41:30.159
of the guys on the other side. And after we had completed this debate,

489
00:41:30.280 --> 00:41:34.920
Don and I got to talking and
he was going to be starting this

490
00:41:35.000 --> 00:41:38.199
Roswell investigation, and given my military
background, he thought it would be an

491
00:41:38.239 --> 00:41:44.639
important thing to have because a lot
of the witnesses were retired military, and

492
00:41:44.679 --> 00:41:49.159
a lot of the witnesses were from
the Roswell Army Airfield in that time him,

493
00:41:49.159 --> 00:41:52.920
so they would have been military and
I would have some insights into how

494
00:41:53.639 --> 00:41:59.360
military the military operates as opposed to
a surveyan. And he's never served today

495
00:42:00.199 --> 00:42:04.679
And one of the first things I
realized is they were talking about Colonel Dubo's

496
00:42:04.760 --> 00:42:09.519
who was Rainy's chief of staff that
ate the Air Force, the command directly

497
00:42:09.519 --> 00:42:15.480
above the folks at Roswell. They
had been talking about Dubo's being Rainy's aid,

498
00:42:15.519 --> 00:42:17.719
and I said, now, a
brigadier general doesn't have a full colonel

499
00:42:17.880 --> 00:42:22.119
as an aide, and the chief
of staff is a much more important position

500
00:42:22.840 --> 00:42:25.960
than the aid to a general officer. So I mean that was one of

501
00:42:25.960 --> 00:42:30.119
the one of the first things I
noticed was, you know, Dubo's was

502
00:42:30.159 --> 00:42:34.320
not an aid, he was,
in fact the chief of staff. So

503
00:42:34.440 --> 00:42:37.599
you were able to clear up some
of these sort of things for them,

504
00:42:37.599 --> 00:42:44.360
which is invaluable. Yes, and
could could say, you know this guy

505
00:42:44.400 --> 00:42:47.639
would report to this and you know, Walter hot for example, did not

506
00:42:47.800 --> 00:42:54.320
have the authority to issue the press
relief without some kind of permission from higher

507
00:42:54.360 --> 00:43:00.760
headquarters or from from his higher his
superior officer, specific Colonel Blanchard. You

508
00:43:00.760 --> 00:43:09.559
don't have a first lieutenant taking that
sort of a step without the commanding officer

509
00:43:09.880 --> 00:43:13.360
knowing what's going on. So when
they say, you know, Walter HoTT

510
00:43:13.440 --> 00:43:17.880
or Jesse Marshall prematurely made this press
release about them having a flying saucer,

511
00:43:19.480 --> 00:43:24.280
well it's really Colonel Blanchard who took
that step. Because in that specific circumstance,

512
00:43:24.880 --> 00:43:29.320
Blanchard would have known. You you
don't go. You don't say I'm

513
00:43:29.320 --> 00:43:32.320
going to put out a press release
saying we've got a flying saucer without getting

514
00:43:32.320 --> 00:43:37.039
the permission of the commanding officer to
do that. What do you think if

515
00:43:37.079 --> 00:43:39.840
you could, you know, if
someone said, what are your top couple

516
00:43:39.880 --> 00:43:46.199
of points and why you think you
know? What are the most convincing couple

517
00:43:46.239 --> 00:43:52.239
of points to you or to anyone
that you know, Roswell was more than

518
00:43:52.360 --> 00:43:58.599
just a weather balloon or crash test
dummies dropped in the desert. I look

519
00:43:58.639 --> 00:44:01.920
at it from the point of view, and this and all some testimony,

520
00:44:01.960 --> 00:44:07.559
But every top officer at Roswell we
were able to interview, with a single

521
00:44:07.599 --> 00:44:13.199
exception, told us it was some
kind of alien spacecraft. Edwin Asley,

522
00:44:13.199 --> 00:44:16.280
who was a provost marshal you know, think chief of police there, told

523
00:44:16.280 --> 00:44:22.639
me at one point I said to
him, are we following the right path?

524
00:44:22.719 --> 00:44:23.800
And he said, what do you
mean? And I said, well,

525
00:44:23.840 --> 00:44:25.920
we think it's extraterrestrial. He said, well, let me put it

526
00:44:25.960 --> 00:44:29.400
this way. It's not the wrong
path. So I mean, here's a

527
00:44:29.400 --> 00:44:34.199
guy who should have known what was
going on, suggesting to us that it

528
00:44:32.800 --> 00:44:38.159
was extraterrestrial. And so every top
officer at the base that we were able

529
00:44:38.199 --> 00:44:42.760
to interview who was there at the
time, with a single exception, said

530
00:44:42.760 --> 00:44:45.880
it was it was extraterrestrial. So
we've got we've got a wide range of

531
00:44:46.639 --> 00:44:54.199
testimony from the ranking officers there.
The next point that is very interesting is

532
00:44:54.440 --> 00:44:59.960
if you look at the newspapers and
you look at the feeling at the time,

533
00:45:00.519 --> 00:45:04.559
starting with ken Argold's siding on June
twenty fourth of the nine objects over

534
00:45:04.599 --> 00:45:10.280
Mountaineer, you see the newspapers.
You see all kinds of stories from scientists,

535
00:45:10.320 --> 00:45:15.000
military officials, governmental officials, the
manon street trying to figure out what

536
00:45:15.039 --> 00:45:19.480
are the flying saucers, what's going
on? Lots of reports of people seeing

537
00:45:19.519 --> 00:45:23.039
strange stuff, hoaxes, of course, people making stuff up, but you've

538
00:45:23.039 --> 00:45:28.119
got a lot of sightings going on. And then you have on July eighth,

539
00:45:28.159 --> 00:45:30.039
you have the story from Oswell,
you know they've got a flying saucer.

540
00:45:30.280 --> 00:45:35.159
And the next day, the very
next day, July ninth, you

541
00:45:35.239 --> 00:45:38.800
get stories and newspapers around the country
that say the Army and Navy moved today

542
00:45:38.880 --> 00:45:43.719
to suppress the stories of flying saucers. Wiz in through the atmosphere. Why

543
00:45:43.760 --> 00:45:46.199
simply on July ninth did they care? Up to that point, they didn't

544
00:45:46.199 --> 00:45:52.440
care. You get quotes from military
officers about what's going on and speculation from

545
00:45:52.519 --> 00:45:55.079
him, and suddenly they're trying to
stop these stories, and you have to

546
00:45:55.079 --> 00:45:59.960
say, well, gee whiz,
what happened to cause this change of attitude,

547
00:46:00.159 --> 00:46:05.079
And of course the answer is Roswell. You see some things like that

548
00:46:05.239 --> 00:46:09.519
going on. There's some documentation that's
very interesting. You see a very herculean

549
00:46:09.599 --> 00:46:16.800
effort for them to hide what fell
at Roswell, and there's no rational reason

550
00:46:16.920 --> 00:46:21.719
for that. Any technology we had
in nineteen forty seven, of course,

551
00:46:21.719 --> 00:46:24.639
has been far surpassed by anything we
have today, so there's no reason to

552
00:46:24.679 --> 00:46:30.840
keep this stuff hidden. But we
see a herculean effort in nineteen forty seven

553
00:46:30.400 --> 00:46:35.559
for them to hide this stuff,
to secure the area, to keep people

554
00:46:35.599 --> 00:46:39.880
out of there, recover the debris, and that all is very suggestive of

555
00:46:39.960 --> 00:46:45.880
something very unusual and something that became
highly classified at that time. And none

556
00:46:45.920 --> 00:46:52.719
of the explanations offered, including this
nonsensical Project Mogul Idea, really fits that

557
00:46:52.840 --> 00:46:59.320
category. When you look at the
Project Mogul Recovery attempts when the balloon's being

558
00:46:59.360 --> 00:47:04.320
launched. Nobody made that sort of
herculean effort, because there's any number of

559
00:47:04.360 --> 00:47:09.360
stories about them attempting to recover Mogul
balloons. But they don't send out literally

560
00:47:09.480 --> 00:47:13.559
dozens of military people, they don't
cord in the area, they don't try

561
00:47:13.559 --> 00:47:19.480
to hide what's going on. Nobody
cares because the balloons just aren't that important.

562
00:47:20.000 --> 00:47:27.239
So we've got we've got this whole
mystery of what was so important they

563
00:47:27.280 --> 00:47:30.840
went to this herculean effort to hide
it. That's one thing that I think

564
00:47:30.960 --> 00:47:34.880
is interesting. One of the points
you bring up is that there was a

565
00:47:35.119 --> 00:47:37.719
UFO fervor at the time, and
when you read the stories, you can

566
00:47:37.719 --> 00:47:40.840
see that. When you even hear
the famous radio account, they like,

567
00:47:40.880 --> 00:47:45.559
what's with all these UFOs? One
of them, Christian Roswell, that it

568
00:47:45.719 --> 00:47:49.639
was more than just the Arnold signing, and there was a lot going on,

569
00:47:50.360 --> 00:47:52.519
a lot of sightings happening at that
time. In fact, you wrote

570
00:47:52.599 --> 00:48:00.599
about one recently, the Maury Island
incident. Which do you feel that that

571
00:48:00.599 --> 00:48:06.000
that may not that may be a
little dubious SAT report. I'm pretty sure

572
00:48:06.039 --> 00:48:12.119
that's a hoax, but it's it's
a hoax that was driven by the UFO

573
00:48:12.159 --> 00:48:15.880
phenomenon, but it was also driven
by Ray Palmer, who edited a science

574
00:48:15.920 --> 00:48:21.159
fiction magazine called Amazing Stories, and
he had been hired to turn around this

575
00:48:21.159 --> 00:48:23.920
this failing science fiction magazine, and
this guy named Richard Shaeffer had sent him

576
00:48:23.920 --> 00:48:30.039
a story that was right off the
wall, talking about these detrimental robots that

577
00:48:30.199 --> 00:48:35.239
are responsible for all the evil in
the world and they're they're hidden away in

578
00:48:35.400 --> 00:48:38.800
caves and and he had this this
whole thing going about it and talking about

579
00:48:39.039 --> 00:48:44.159
about ships and flying Saucer type ships
like that, and so that when that

580
00:48:44.280 --> 00:48:49.639
Arnold thing broke, Palmer jumped on
this bandwagon and said, see, here's

581
00:48:49.719 --> 00:48:52.440
proof that the Shaver mystery is real. I'm not making this stuff up.

582
00:48:53.000 --> 00:48:58.679
And he was contacted by one of
the guys involved with the Murray Island thing,

583
00:48:59.079 --> 00:49:01.960
and god Ken Arnold involved in investigating
it. And so Palmer was kind

584
00:49:01.960 --> 00:49:08.800
of pushing the Moury Island thing is
as reality because it helped underscore the reality

585
00:49:08.840 --> 00:49:13.599
of the Shaver mystery. And so
you've got these two things going on at

586
00:49:13.599 --> 00:49:19.519
once, and Palmer kind of combined
the two things to prove the Shaver mystery.

587
00:49:19.519 --> 00:49:23.440
But I think the evidence pretty clear
based on everything that I have seen,

588
00:49:23.960 --> 00:49:30.639
and I know early George Early from
Oregon has done. He did a

589
00:49:30.679 --> 00:49:37.360
four part series in UFO magazine about
his investigations into the Moury Island case,

590
00:49:37.400 --> 00:49:43.039
and I think he's pretty well established
that it's a hoax. Well, that's

591
00:49:43.079 --> 00:49:45.639
one thing that makes you a little
controversial when it comes to ris Well is

592
00:49:45.679 --> 00:49:52.960
that you have been early on one
of the people to quickly, when you

593
00:49:52.039 --> 00:49:57.159
identify a hoax, to call it
out and say, look, I don't

594
00:49:57.199 --> 00:50:00.840
think this is you know, good
evidence. I think this witness is a

595
00:50:00.880 --> 00:50:06.800
hoax. And people get upset when
that happens. Of course, how do

596
00:50:06.840 --> 00:50:09.480
you feel about you know, did
it shock you at first? People's reaction

597
00:50:09.679 --> 00:50:16.800
when you discover that there's hoaxing going
on and you call it out, people

598
00:50:16.920 --> 00:50:22.000
getting so upset about that sort of
thing. It doesn't surprise me that there's

599
00:50:22.039 --> 00:50:27.840
hoaxing going off. Yeah. What
surprised me is, and it astonishes me

600
00:50:28.039 --> 00:50:32.440
repeatedly, is when you have the
evidence that it's a hoax and people just

601
00:50:32.679 --> 00:50:37.280
reject that evidence and come up with
all kinds of convoluted reasons of why the

602
00:50:37.320 --> 00:50:44.400
evidence isn't as persuasive as it is. And I mean they talk about,

603
00:50:44.440 --> 00:50:46.360
well, this guy said he was
in the military, Well there's no records.

604
00:50:46.440 --> 00:50:50.960
Well see, the government was able
to take to the height his records

605
00:50:50.960 --> 00:50:54.280
to make him look bad and we
would reject the story. And my rebuttal

606
00:50:54.320 --> 00:51:00.920
to that is that's impossible. The
take officers. For example, back in

607
00:51:00.960 --> 00:51:05.960
the back up until the mid nineteen
seventies or nineteen eighties, there was what

608
00:51:06.119 --> 00:51:10.800
was called the Army Registry, or
the Air Force Registry or the Naval Registry.

609
00:51:10.800 --> 00:51:15.599
And what this was was a list
of all the officers on active duty.

610
00:51:15.239 --> 00:51:21.119
And these are in repositories around the
country. In fact, one of

611
00:51:21.119 --> 00:51:23.280
the things that I enjoyed doing was
when I was looking that up one day,

612
00:51:23.360 --> 00:51:27.719
I pulled the one from eighteen seventy
seven, and it gave a listing

613
00:51:27.719 --> 00:51:30.039
of all the officers killed at the
Little Big Horn because they were no longer

614
00:51:30.079 --> 00:51:32.440
on active duty, and this is
why they had been removed from the role

615
00:51:32.480 --> 00:51:37.119
of active duty. And so if
you tell me a guy was on active

616
00:51:37.199 --> 00:51:39.800
duty in this time and his records
have disappeared, well then my next thing

617
00:51:39.920 --> 00:51:43.880
is, Okay, I'll look at
the registry and if his name his names

618
00:51:43.880 --> 00:51:47.159
there, then we've got something.
But the names are never there. They

619
00:51:47.159 --> 00:51:50.400
say, well, there was this
big fire in Saint Louis and my records

620
00:51:50.440 --> 00:51:52.199
were burned up, But that's not
the only place where there were records.

621
00:51:52.280 --> 00:51:55.840
And if you were still on active
duty in nineteen seventy three when the fire

622
00:51:55.880 --> 00:52:00.119
took place, your records weren't there
to burn up. The Air Force has

623
00:52:00.159 --> 00:52:06.320
an Air Personnel Air Reserve Personnel Center
in Denver, and a lot of the

624
00:52:06.360 --> 00:52:09.840
records for the Air Force guys are
there. And so even if your record

625
00:52:09.840 --> 00:52:16.519
burned up in Saint Louis, there's
records in Denver. If you went to

626
00:52:16.519 --> 00:52:21.119
flight school, for example, there
should be some kind of record at the

627
00:52:21.119 --> 00:52:24.199
place you went to flight school.
When I went to flight school in nineteen

628
00:52:24.239 --> 00:52:29.840
sixty eight, I was able to
find online again the Internet coming through.

629
00:52:30.199 --> 00:52:34.639
I was actually able to find a
picture of my platoon from flight school.

630
00:52:35.119 --> 00:52:37.760
So if you say, well,
I don't believe you are an helicopter pilot,

631
00:52:37.880 --> 00:52:42.119
I can point to that and say
you go to this place and here's

632
00:52:42.159 --> 00:52:45.079
my platoon, and you read I
think I'm in a second position in the

633
00:52:45.119 --> 00:52:51.000
second row. There's my name there
are two websites devoted to the companies I

634
00:52:51.079 --> 00:52:55.039
was served in Vietnam, and you
go to those sites, my name surface

635
00:52:55.119 --> 00:52:59.320
is there, and in fact,
in one of them it actually talks about

636
00:52:59.360 --> 00:53:02.519
me eventually being on Well we saw
Kevin Ramble, who was a member of

637
00:53:02.519 --> 00:53:08.320
our unit on television doing UFO stuff. The other site's got a picture of

638
00:53:08.360 --> 00:53:15.320
me in my Vietnam garb and another
picture because I'd sent them one from Iraq,

639
00:53:15.400 --> 00:53:20.440
so they showed me in nineteen sixty
eight in Vietnam, in nineteen Earth

640
00:53:20.559 --> 00:53:23.840
nineteen two thousand and three in Iraq. So, I mean, there are

641
00:53:23.880 --> 00:53:29.000
ways to verify all of this stuff. But if a guy is not who

642
00:53:29.039 --> 00:53:32.440
he says he is, he's claiming
these sorts of things, all that stuff

643
00:53:32.599 --> 00:53:37.559
doesn't exist for them, and there's
no way the government could get to all

644
00:53:37.639 --> 00:53:42.599
that stuff and hide it. Yeah, you hear a lot about that,

645
00:53:42.679 --> 00:53:45.400
even with you know, like of
course, at one of the big cases

646
00:53:45.480 --> 00:53:51.000
Bob Blazaar, have you ran across
or do you believe that any of these

647
00:53:51.039 --> 00:53:58.360
people have been historically erased that actually
ever happened. I can't see it.

648
00:53:58.360 --> 00:54:05.800
It's there's a phenomenon which is called
stolen valor in which people, and I

649
00:54:05.840 --> 00:54:08.440
say, people, men and women
both claiming to be Vietnam veterans, claiming

650
00:54:08.440 --> 00:54:13.239
to be POW's, claiming to have
been in special forces, whether it's the

651
00:54:13.239 --> 00:54:17.639
Green Berets, it's Marine recon,
it's Navy seals, claiming all this stuff.

652
00:54:17.679 --> 00:54:21.800
And then they say, you try
to check their records, and their

653
00:54:21.840 --> 00:54:24.039
records don't bear this out. And
they said, well, the government doesn't

654
00:54:24.079 --> 00:54:27.800
like what I've said about this,
and they've erased my record to make me

655
00:54:27.880 --> 00:54:30.320
book bad. Well, it's crap. It just cannot be done. There

656
00:54:30.400 --> 00:54:36.480
is too much ancillary information. If, for example, you were to write

657
00:54:36.480 --> 00:54:38.920
to Saint Louis to try to get
my military record and they wrote back said,

658
00:54:38.920 --> 00:54:43.679
we've got no record to this guy. I can even provide you with

659
00:54:43.800 --> 00:54:51.360
copies of travel vouchers who we had
to fill out to be reimbursed for expenses

660
00:54:51.400 --> 00:54:54.639
on military travel. I've got copies
of orders. I've got all kinds of

661
00:54:54.719 --> 00:55:00.800
documents to prove this. I actually
have written to Saint Louis as my mother

662
00:55:00.840 --> 00:55:05.039
in law to see what kind of
information I would get in return, to

663
00:55:05.079 --> 00:55:07.920
see how how badly mangled it is. And when I wrote for my Air

664
00:55:07.920 --> 00:55:13.079
Force record, it had me as
a first lieutenant, and I realized that

665
00:55:13.159 --> 00:55:20.280
it's because when I left Richards Goubauer
they issued a DD formed two fourteen about

666
00:55:20.280 --> 00:55:23.079
that, and I was only a
first lieutenant at the time, and so

667
00:55:23.119 --> 00:55:28.760
they picked up the record from the
information from my Army service for the D

668
00:55:29.039 --> 00:55:32.039
four form two fourteen. So why
when I wrote to Saint Louis, it'd

669
00:55:32.039 --> 00:55:37.119
only pulled that information for Air Force. If you write for my army record,

670
00:55:37.239 --> 00:55:43.000
you get a whole different story.
So the information is all there.

671
00:55:43.800 --> 00:55:46.400
But if you weren't who you said
your records, I'm going to be there.

672
00:55:46.960 --> 00:55:52.480
And if you couldn't find that,
I can point to other places.

673
00:55:52.519 --> 00:55:58.199
You can go independent of me to
verify what I say, And these people

674
00:55:58.239 --> 00:56:00.679
can't do that. It all relies
on what they say in documents they produce.

675
00:56:02.239 --> 00:56:07.840
What one hoaxer. Do you think
has done the biggest damage to the

676
00:56:07.960 --> 00:56:15.159
Roswell story? Oh? Man,
the biggest? Are there too many?

677
00:56:15.559 --> 00:56:21.880
Unfortunately, I would I would get
there. There are two that spring to

678
00:56:21.920 --> 00:56:27.880
mind immediately, Frank Kaufman, of
course, and then Gerald Anderson, and

679
00:56:27.960 --> 00:56:30.320
I think I think both of them
have done a great deal of damage to

680
00:56:30.360 --> 00:56:36.679
it. Kaufman may be the worst, because Kaufman was there in Roswell and

681
00:56:36.760 --> 00:56:40.280
talking about the events in Roswell,
where Anderson's talking about stuff over on the

682
00:56:40.280 --> 00:56:45.480
plains of Santa Agustin, which is
sort of an ancillary part of the Roswell

683
00:56:45.519 --> 00:56:51.039
case. I guess Frank Coufin would
be the worst. Now he is generally

684
00:56:51.119 --> 00:56:55.000
accepted for the most part, right
as someone who is a hoaxer. Are

685
00:56:55.039 --> 00:57:00.719
there still people who believe? Do
you? Yeah? Is what strikes me

686
00:57:00.800 --> 00:57:05.239
is incredible, you know, I
believe the story in the beginning. I

687
00:57:05.239 --> 00:57:08.559
mean, Frank Kaufman would present us
a documentation when when needed, and things

688
00:57:08.639 --> 00:57:13.400
like that, and and these seemed
to be a very credible witness. One

689
00:57:13.400 --> 00:57:16.199
of the things is the yearbook was
produced that was produced in Roswell nineteen forty

690
00:57:16.199 --> 00:57:19.519
seven. I had a picture of
Frank Kaufman in there getting a medal.

691
00:57:20.239 --> 00:57:22.920
Looking looking at the metal closely,
it appears now to be a World War

692
00:57:22.920 --> 00:57:29.400
two victory medal, which they gave
to everybody who served in the in the

693
00:57:29.519 --> 00:57:32.559
US military during the during the Second
World War. So I don't know why

694
00:57:32.599 --> 00:57:37.400
there was some kind of presentation of
this metal to him in Roswell in nineteen

695
00:57:37.440 --> 00:57:40.000
forty seven. But I mean he's
in the yearbook, so I mean this,

696
00:57:40.000 --> 00:57:45.880
this makes you look credible. But
as we as we investigated further,

697
00:57:45.679 --> 00:57:50.320
you know, we found we found
the evidence. We found the things the

698
00:57:50.880 --> 00:57:54.159
separation papers that he provided to us, we found the real copies and they

699
00:57:54.159 --> 00:57:59.679
didn't match up. We found that
he wasn't in intelligence as he claimed,

700
00:57:59.719 --> 00:58:04.599
he was an administrator in the administration. If we found he hadn't been a

701
00:58:04.599 --> 00:58:07.320
mattress sergeant as he claimed, but
he was a staff sergeant. So there

702
00:58:07.320 --> 00:58:12.559
were a lot of things that were
wrong with what he said. So and

703
00:58:12.719 --> 00:58:15.599
when I say we, I know
Mark Rodicker and I did a big story

704
00:58:15.639 --> 00:58:20.039
for the International UFO Reporter about this, and it's come out other words,

705
00:58:20.119 --> 00:58:22.920
and people still say to me,
well, how do you know Frank Kaufman

706
00:58:22.039 --> 00:58:25.719
was an agent of disinformation? Now, he was just a guy who plugged

707
00:58:25.760 --> 00:58:30.840
himself into the Roswell case for the
spotlight that it brought to him and the

708
00:58:30.840 --> 00:58:35.440
financial rewards. And I know that
he was paid for interviews on a number

709
00:58:35.480 --> 00:58:38.199
of occasions, so there was a
financial reward, and there was then he

710
00:58:38.239 --> 00:58:45.199
got to see his face on TV. But the thing is, there are

711
00:58:45.199 --> 00:58:47.920
people who still think there's something real
to his story, that he's got part

712
00:58:47.920 --> 00:58:50.840
of it right. We should listen
to what he had to say. No,

713
00:58:51.079 --> 00:58:53.679
we reject everything he has to say. If we can't corroborate it from

714
00:58:53.679 --> 00:58:55.880
another source, and we got it
from another source, then we don't need

715
00:58:55.880 --> 00:59:00.480
Frank Kaufman. And that's It's the
sad thing. And I can point to

716
00:59:00.519 --> 00:59:06.559
any number of cases where the originator
of the hoax is admitted that it was

717
00:59:06.559 --> 00:59:08.719
a hoax, They signed documents that
it was a hoax, and we still

718
00:59:08.840 --> 00:59:15.039
argue with those points. Viaen Day
Letters come to mind. The guy went

719
00:59:15.079 --> 00:59:17.119
to apro and said, I made
the whole thing up and signed a document,

720
00:59:17.159 --> 00:59:23.679
and then years later he decided he
wanted to retract his statement. But

721
00:59:23.960 --> 00:59:29.159
everything that you can find about it
suggests this thing is a hoax. And

722
00:59:29.239 --> 00:59:32.840
yet here we are in twenty twelve, still arguing about the reality of the

723
00:59:34.199 --> 00:59:37.639
Day Letters. One of the things
he said in one of the annotated books

724
00:59:38.400 --> 00:59:44.119
was arguing about this airplane, the
Stardust that disappeared in nineteen fifty two.

725
00:59:44.159 --> 00:59:46.719
I think it was maybe he's nineteen
forty eight. I forget. It disappeared

726
00:59:46.760 --> 00:59:52.719
in South America and in the Enday
Letters book, there's an annotation about this,

727
00:59:52.840 --> 00:59:57.480
and it said that the airplane had
gotten too close to the one of

728
00:59:57.480 --> 01:00:00.400
their ships and it was destroyed.
Well, the wrecks of the he was

729
01:00:00.440 --> 01:00:06.559
found eventually, around ten twelve years
ago, they found the wreckage and what

730
01:00:06.599 --> 01:00:12.039
happened is they flew into him out
And so if Yendi was who he said

731
01:00:12.079 --> 01:00:15.719
he was, they had known that. So it's just it's just that sort

732
01:00:15.760 --> 01:00:20.920
of thing and you and you provide
that information and they say, yeah,

733
01:00:20.960 --> 01:00:23.320
but what about this? What about
that? Ayendi, by the way,

734
01:00:23.400 --> 01:00:28.440
gets this to the Philadelphia experiment.
So that's that's where people want to keep

735
01:00:28.880 --> 01:00:30.800
talking about this. But the guy
made it up. He said he made

736
01:00:30.840 --> 01:00:36.400
it up. I did a story
about it the Allende Letters in Official UFO

737
01:00:36.480 --> 01:00:44.440
magazine in the mid nineteen seventies,
and Carlos Ayendi, Carl Allen read the

738
01:00:44.519 --> 01:00:46.639
article and sent a copy of it
annotated back to the publisher, and the

739
01:00:46.639 --> 01:00:51.039
publisher sent me a copy of I've
got one of my stories. Carlos A.

740
01:00:51.159 --> 01:00:57.559
Yendi actually annotated the about the story. But you find out things.

741
01:00:58.039 --> 01:01:02.440
The is that the Navy was very
interested in the End Day's Letters when they

742
01:01:02.440 --> 01:01:06.519
got them. Well, it turns
out that's not quite right. What happened

743
01:01:06.639 --> 01:01:10.000
was two guys who worked for the
Office of Naval Research were interested in it,

744
01:01:10.480 --> 01:01:19.639
and the Navy had no had no
reason to reject them from working on

745
01:01:19.719 --> 01:01:22.320
it if they wanted to. They
didn't, you know, if they wanted

746
01:01:22.360 --> 01:01:23.280
to go ahead and work on it
on their own time, as long as

747
01:01:23.480 --> 01:01:27.400
Navy funds weren't involved, they didn't
care. The Navy didn't care. And

748
01:01:27.480 --> 01:01:30.480
so it comes out that the Navy
was very interested in they sing and they

749
01:01:30.480 --> 01:01:35.079
did all this research. Well that's
not really quite accurate. Two guys in

750
01:01:35.119 --> 01:01:37.119
the Navy, and the fact they
were in the Navy followed them. I

751
01:01:37.159 --> 01:01:43.159
mean, I had a similar circumstance
where I was investigating some alleged landings in

752
01:01:43.239 --> 01:01:46.039
Iowa, and I was also in
the Air Force Reserve at the time,

753
01:01:46.039 --> 01:01:51.559
but I was doing it as a
private citizen. But somebody saw the bumper

754
01:01:51.599 --> 01:01:57.199
sticker on my car for the base
and told the media that the Air Force

755
01:01:57.239 --> 01:02:00.239
had been out to investigate their UFO
setting. Well, no, it me

756
01:02:00.000 --> 01:02:04.079
wasn't the Air Force. The fact
that they just they just saw the bumper

757
01:02:04.079 --> 01:02:07.400
sticker and made an assumption that wasn't
true, and a lot of that goes

758
01:02:07.440 --> 01:02:13.039
on if people make these assumptions that
aren't true and keep these things alive when

759
01:02:13.039 --> 01:02:16.239
they we should have driven the stake
through the hearts of them long ago and

760
01:02:16.280 --> 01:02:22.400
stopped the investigations and moved on to
more lucrative areas of investigation. That's what

761
01:02:22.599 --> 01:02:28.360
seems to be at least it's frustrating. I think it's really frustrating when it

762
01:02:28.400 --> 01:02:34.159
comes to Roswell research is that people
will hold on to these hoaxes so tightly

763
01:02:34.800 --> 01:02:39.800
when it's not necessary. There are
a small number of hoaxes as opposed to

764
01:02:40.519 --> 01:02:45.800
all of the incredible witnesses that you
all as a Rosewell dream team, you

765
01:02:45.840 --> 01:02:52.440
know, you and and Don Schmidt
and Tom Carrey and if you include SANM.

766
01:02:52.480 --> 01:02:55.320
Freeman. I mean, the number
of witnesses you calls have gotten is

767
01:02:55.400 --> 01:03:00.440
pretty impressive. You don't need those
those hoaxes in that maxe to you.

768
01:03:00.480 --> 01:03:07.280
No it and it hurts, And
it hurts because a lot of times people

769
01:03:07.320 --> 01:03:12.960
only remember the hoaxes. I think
of Bill Buckner. What does everybody remember

770
01:03:13.000 --> 01:03:15.039
about Bill Buckner? While he was
playing first base and the ball went between

771
01:03:15.559 --> 01:03:20.960
between his legs and allowed the other
team to score a run and they ended

772
01:03:21.039 --> 01:03:25.400
up winning the World Series. They
don't remember the probably hundreds of great plays

773
01:03:25.480 --> 01:03:30.760
Bill Buckner made. They remember that
one thing. There was a movie Tin

774
01:03:30.920 --> 01:03:37.400
Cup with Kevin Costner about the US
Open and he was trying to drive the

775
01:03:37.440 --> 01:03:43.039
ball over this this water hazard and
kept dropping the ball, and at the

776
01:03:43.079 --> 01:03:45.199
end of the movie, his girlfriend
says, nobody. You know, in

777
01:03:45.199 --> 01:03:50.519
ten years, nobody's going to remember
who won the US Open this year.

778
01:03:50.599 --> 01:03:55.159
They're going to remember you're twelve on
that hole. And it's the same thing.

779
01:03:55.519 --> 01:03:59.639
You know. They don't remember all
the good witnesses that we have,

780
01:04:00.199 --> 01:04:02.679
all the good testimony we have.
They remember, oh, well, you

781
01:04:02.719 --> 01:04:06.559
know, Frank Couflin was coming to
lie about this, So you know,

782
01:04:06.639 --> 01:04:11.400
that really hurts. Hurts the investigation
and then people hanging on to it,

783
01:04:11.440 --> 01:04:15.679
wanting to believe that there's something something
there that we should that we should follow

784
01:04:15.760 --> 01:04:19.559
on, there's something there that we
need to research, and I'm thinking,

785
01:04:19.599 --> 01:04:23.519
no, not with that. We
need to move into arenas that are going

786
01:04:23.599 --> 01:04:27.239
to pay off in a good way. It's funny you bring up the golf

787
01:04:27.280 --> 01:04:30.920
because you know, just this last
weekend, co Heer said the Masters,

788
01:04:30.920 --> 01:04:33.480
the big news is Tiger screws up, Mickelson screws up. And you know,

789
01:04:33.760 --> 01:04:38.880
the big news isn't the people who
won and the great news. So

790
01:04:39.800 --> 01:04:43.079
let's move on to good news instead
of the bad stuff. I guess,

791
01:04:43.719 --> 01:04:46.960
which is what I think is an
incredible movie. It's one of my favorite

792
01:04:47.000 --> 01:04:51.920
just overall movies in general, just
because I love that someone made a movie

793
01:04:53.159 --> 01:04:58.239
about some real research, and that's
nineteen ninety four, the Roswell movie that

794
01:04:58.480 --> 01:05:01.639
your credit as one of the you
got to help with research on this movie.

795
01:05:01.800 --> 01:05:04.599
What was that experience like and how
did it start? How did it

796
01:05:04.639 --> 01:05:08.360
happen? Well, first of all, let me let me say this.

797
01:05:08.840 --> 01:05:12.360
I find it incredible that if you
look me up on the Internet movie database,

798
01:05:12.400 --> 01:05:15.480
I'm actually there, I know,
along with all the Hollywood stars.

799
01:05:15.159 --> 01:05:21.719
You know, I think I'm on
the Internet movie database for Trainee is what

800
01:05:21.920 --> 01:05:30.559
happened? What happened is Donna I
wanted to do after I think our first

801
01:05:30.599 --> 01:05:34.679
trip to Oswell, we were driving
down the Interstate twenty five heading toward the

802
01:05:34.679 --> 01:05:38.559
airport, and I said, don
you know, we could do a book

803
01:05:38.599 --> 01:05:42.559
about this. We've got to do
a lot more research, but we've got

804
01:05:42.599 --> 01:05:45.000
to do a book. So I'm
now in the process of trying to convent

805
01:05:45.039 --> 01:05:51.880
a publisher that they should publish this
book. And we knew Paul David's from

806
01:05:51.960 --> 01:05:57.599
California. He had a UFO siding
that was very interesting by the way,

807
01:05:57.639 --> 01:06:01.320
his wife worked at Columbia Pictures.
And I said to Don, if we

808
01:06:01.360 --> 01:06:06.599
can get Paul David or his wife
just to you know, suggest that they're

809
01:06:08.000 --> 01:06:11.760
you know, the story interests,
and we might be able to convince a

810
01:06:11.800 --> 01:06:17.800
publisher to publish the book. And
what happened was Paul David got really excited

811
01:06:17.800 --> 01:06:23.639
about the project and thought it was
a good idea. So he put together

812
01:06:24.440 --> 01:06:29.880
what they call it treatment and went
around to his contacts in California to try

813
01:06:29.880 --> 01:06:35.159
to sell the movie idea. Eventually, HBO was going to do it,

814
01:06:36.360 --> 01:06:40.880
but they decided not to, and
I don't know what the real reason was,

815
01:06:40.920 --> 01:06:45.679
but he eventually got it sold to
a showtime and and so we had

816
01:06:45.679 --> 01:06:50.840
an opportunity to provide the research for
the movie. I got to be on

817
01:06:50.920 --> 01:06:56.079
the set as the military advisor and
one of the technical advisors, and Done

818
01:06:56.119 --> 01:06:58.760
was on the set as one of
the technical advisers, and we got you

819
01:06:58.760 --> 01:07:02.800
know, it's based on the book
UFO Crash at Rosald by Kevin Randlin Dodgement,

820
01:07:03.039 --> 01:07:05.559
which is kind of a neat thing
to do. So we got the

821
01:07:05.639 --> 01:07:11.880
opportunity to watch them make a movie. We got got an opportunity to be

822
01:07:11.920 --> 01:07:15.079
in the movie. Unfortunately, I'm
kind of hard to see and Don has

823
01:07:15.079 --> 01:07:18.239
his back to the camera. If
you know Don, you know it's him.

824
01:07:18.320 --> 01:07:20.480
And if you look at the right
place, you can see me in

825
01:07:20.519 --> 01:07:25.639
the film. Uh and and and
you know, we got to see the

826
01:07:26.039 --> 01:07:30.119
dailies every night while we were down
in filming in Arizona. They would have

827
01:07:30.199 --> 01:07:34.320
the have the dailies at one of
the hot the hotel room, and I

828
01:07:34.360 --> 01:07:36.880
got there late one night for some
reason, I don't know why. I

829
01:07:36.880 --> 01:07:40.480
didn't get there right when they started
the dailies. And I walked into the

830
01:07:40.559 --> 01:07:44.239
room and the director said, and
I couldn't believe this. They said,

831
01:07:44.320 --> 01:07:47.559
oh, start over, Kevin got
it just got here. I'm thinking,

832
01:07:47.639 --> 01:07:51.559
Wow, this is really nice.
You can have to make everybody sit through

833
01:07:51.559 --> 01:07:56.000
this stuff again, so I can
see it from the beginning, which was

834
01:07:56.079 --> 01:07:59.760
kind of cool. But we you
know, I had we got an opportunity

835
01:07:59.800 --> 01:08:04.719
to though I'd input on it.
I would tell the director this isn't exactly

836
01:08:04.760 --> 01:08:08.639
the way the military would do it. I was helping the costumers make sure

837
01:08:08.679 --> 01:08:11.480
the military uniforms were right, and
the one day I wasn't on the set,

838
01:08:11.559 --> 01:08:17.520
they put put insignia on the collar
of Marcell's Marcelle's uniform that was incorrect.

839
01:08:17.840 --> 01:08:20.039
Oh. And then I then,
of course, I have my great,

840
01:08:20.199 --> 01:08:25.039
my great Kyle McLaughlin story. The
first day we're on the set,

841
01:08:25.119 --> 01:08:29.880
he comes out in his his major
marcell uniform and he says, is this

842
01:08:30.039 --> 01:08:34.359
right? And I said, well, you've got the major's leaf on sideways.

843
01:08:34.399 --> 01:08:38.199
And I fixed that, and I
fixed the other insignia, and I

844
01:08:38.279 --> 01:08:41.520
realized his gigline was off, which
which is the you know, the line

845
01:08:41.520 --> 01:08:45.560
along the shirt down past the bell
buckle into the fly of the trousers,

846
01:08:45.960 --> 01:08:47.720
and the belt buckle was off.
So I reached down and started unbuckling his

847
01:08:47.880 --> 01:08:53.119
pants. Oh wow, And my
thought was, you know how many women

848
01:08:53.159 --> 01:08:56.439
would love to do this? And
then my second thought was, you know,

849
01:08:56.560 --> 01:09:00.479
maybe I shouldn't be unbuckling his pans. So I I said, well,

850
01:09:00.520 --> 01:09:01.359
we can fix your giglin. I
said, I'm go ahead and fix

851
01:09:01.359 --> 01:09:06.920
it. So I adjusted his belt
buckle so the Giglin was proper. So,

852
01:09:06.960 --> 01:09:10.359
I mean, this is a great
thing. We got an opportunity to

853
01:09:10.399 --> 01:09:15.479
meet meet with a number of very
famous people. Uh not only com McLaughlan,

854
01:09:15.800 --> 01:09:19.000
Dwight Yoakum got to got to have
a nice couple of nice chants with

855
01:09:19.119 --> 01:09:23.359
him. Xander Berkley. I didn't
really know who he was at the time,

856
01:09:24.119 --> 01:09:26.680
and I said, so I wanted
to get an idea of what movies

857
01:09:26.720 --> 01:09:28.920
he'd been in prior to this one. So I said to him, what

858
01:09:28.920 --> 01:09:31.039
are some of your favorite movie roles? Thinking you know, and I said,

859
01:09:31.039 --> 01:09:32.920
well, I don't know what you've
been in. Tell me. It

860
01:09:33.000 --> 01:09:35.279
was what are you like? And
he said, well he got killed by

861
01:09:35.279 --> 01:09:41.920
the terminator and terminator too and I
thought, oh, that's this is And

862
01:09:42.119 --> 01:09:46.039
Ali said he had sent Tom Cruise
to Cuba in a Few Good Men,

863
01:09:46.199 --> 01:09:50.439
so he's got he's got a roll
a small role in that film as well.

864
01:09:50.560 --> 01:09:55.119
So next time I saw a Few
Good Men, I made sure that

865
01:09:55.159 --> 01:09:58.920
I would see his role in that. We got to go to a couple

866
01:09:58.960 --> 01:10:01.000
of Hollywood premieres. Because of that, we got to go to the premiere

867
01:10:01.039 --> 01:10:05.199
of Therosmo movie, which was kind
of kind of and we got to meet

868
01:10:05.279 --> 01:10:09.319
Robert Wise, who'd done the day
they were student Stille. He'd come to

869
01:10:09.359 --> 01:10:13.359
the premiere of our movie. Got
to meet him and things like that.

870
01:10:13.479 --> 01:10:15.239
So, you know, the movie
got all of this stuff, and it

871
01:10:15.319 --> 01:10:19.439
was really kind of neat being on
the set and watching them doing and realizing

872
01:10:20.119 --> 01:10:25.439
they spend all day, they spend
twelve fourteen hours and if they get three

873
01:10:25.439 --> 01:10:29.239
minutes of film they're happy. I
mean all this stuff. You get three

874
01:10:29.279 --> 01:10:33.119
minutes of film, and the elaborate
processes of setting things up and making sure

875
01:10:33.159 --> 01:10:36.920
the scenes are right, and then
you go you go on the Internet movie

876
01:10:36.960 --> 01:10:41.840
database, and you've got all this
stuff about the continuity being off in movies,

877
01:10:41.880 --> 01:10:46.039
you know, and you're not filming
the thing in sequence. So you

878
01:10:46.119 --> 01:10:51.399
might film a scene outside and then
three weeks later, a month later,

879
01:10:51.399 --> 01:10:55.079
you're filming the inside scene. So
when the guy walks through the door,

880
01:10:55.239 --> 01:10:59.560
it seems seamless, but the scenes
may have been filmed weeks apart, and

881
01:10:59.680 --> 01:11:02.319
so they're taking polaroid pictures so they
can try to get the costume to look

882
01:11:02.359 --> 01:11:06.520
the same in all of that,
and and it's just an incredible process.

883
01:11:06.600 --> 01:11:11.720
And so you get an idea of
how hard and difficult it is. And

884
01:11:11.720 --> 01:11:16.279
then you see the the internet people
with well in this movie, his time

885
01:11:16.439 --> 01:11:18.760
was on this way and when he
walked out the door, it was on

886
01:11:18.880 --> 01:11:23.199
this way. Well yeah, big
woop. You know, you take some

887
01:11:23.239 --> 01:11:26.800
of the magic out of the movie
that way. But it was an incredible

888
01:11:26.840 --> 01:11:30.359
process to see all the the herculean
effort to go to get this stuff right.

889
01:11:30.399 --> 01:11:33.880
And but but again, at one
point I said to the director that

890
01:11:33.960 --> 01:11:39.359
there was something not quite right.
Well, they were addressing one of the

891
01:11:39.560 --> 01:11:43.680
one of the people wrong, not
in the military way of doing that.

892
01:11:43.760 --> 01:11:45.680
And the director says, you know, we're making a movie, you're not

893
01:11:45.720 --> 01:11:49.239
a documentary. And I said,
yeah, okay, I get it.

894
01:11:50.359 --> 01:11:55.680
You know if so so again,
when you watch a movie about a historical

895
01:11:55.680 --> 01:12:00.279
event, you have to think in
your mind they're making a movie, not

896
01:12:00.399 --> 01:12:05.279
a documentary, So they play with
the facts a little bit for the context

897
01:12:05.359 --> 01:12:08.720
of the movie. If they're making
a documentary, then they need to get

898
01:12:08.720 --> 01:12:11.159
the stuff right. But if they're
making a movie, well, you know

899
01:12:11.640 --> 01:12:15.199
they're doing for the flow of the
movie. They make combining characters so that

900
01:12:15.319 --> 01:12:19.199
you don't end up with fifteen characters
when you only need three to really move

901
01:12:19.239 --> 01:12:21.920
the plot along and things like that. I mean, it's hard to keep

902
01:12:21.960 --> 01:12:26.079
track of all the characters and all
of this stuff when you're watching the movie.

903
01:12:26.119 --> 01:12:29.800
So it's nice to have those sorts
of things. But it was a

904
01:12:29.840 --> 01:12:33.760
really interesting process to watch them make
the movie. And like I said,

905
01:12:33.760 --> 01:12:38.800
I got to sit around all day
in costume as a nineteen forty seven reporter.

906
01:12:39.800 --> 01:12:43.199
Yeah, that's waiting for my big
role, my big opportunity to go

907
01:12:43.199 --> 01:12:46.000
into the movies. And then Martin
Sheen of course in it Who for the

908
01:12:46.039 --> 01:12:54.439
younger people. That's Charlie Sheen's dad's
And my favorite scene in any movie is

909
01:12:54.479 --> 01:13:04.720
in What the movie with machines in
it, Where's He's one of the parodies

910
01:13:04.720 --> 01:13:09.680
of the military movies. And they're
both one going up river, one's going

911
01:13:09.680 --> 01:13:12.960
down river, and they look at
each other and they both yell, I

912
01:13:12.960 --> 01:13:16.680
loved you on Wall Street. Oh
that's pretty funny, you know so,

913
01:13:16.840 --> 01:13:19.920
And I can't remember the name of
the movie at the moment. What I

914
01:13:20.000 --> 01:13:24.239
love about the movie, like you
said, you know, Hollywood plays with

915
01:13:24.359 --> 01:13:27.960
things to bring some drama to it. It's not like they said, it's

916
01:13:28.039 --> 01:13:31.279
not a documentary. But what I
love about it is that it's based on

917
01:13:31.399 --> 01:13:35.600
research that there's a lot of what
really or what you will have found to

918
01:13:35.680 --> 01:13:42.039
have happened. Dwight Yoakum also was
a great mac brasle. Whenever I think

919
01:13:42.079 --> 01:13:45.199
of mac Brasel, I think of
Dwight Yoakum. But and the big controversy

920
01:13:45.239 --> 01:13:49.760
about that was is we had pictures
of Dwight Yoakam without his hat on.

921
01:13:49.840 --> 01:13:54.560
So we realized everybody realized he was
going bald. Oh how funny. Yep,

922
01:13:55.039 --> 01:13:57.640
so he left his hat on.
I don't think he had anything without

923
01:13:57.680 --> 01:14:00.520
the hat huh. Well, no, he had in a couple of scenes,

924
01:14:00.520 --> 01:14:02.000
he didn't have his hat on.
Oh okay. And I remember seeing

925
01:14:02.000 --> 01:14:05.079
in a newspaper or reading in one
of the tabloids or something about this,

926
01:14:05.159 --> 01:14:09.439
and it was it was the big
deal that, you know, his pictures

927
01:14:09.439 --> 01:14:12.680
of Dwight Yoakum without his hat on, and it was from our movie How

928
01:14:12.760 --> 01:14:15.319
funny? So how do you think
it holds up to me? It seems

929
01:14:15.319 --> 01:14:17.960
like, you know, that's what's
neat about it is it feels like,

930
01:14:18.600 --> 01:14:24.199
you know, with this event and
what seemingly happened. Some of these behind

931
01:14:24.239 --> 01:14:30.880
the scenes discussions with the military and
government officials were probably similar to what might

932
01:14:30.920 --> 01:14:36.039
have really these conversations might have really
been, Like I think part of the

933
01:14:36.079 --> 01:14:42.680
thing that they were doing is attempting
to find a way to move the story

934
01:14:42.720 --> 01:14:48.199
along, and they did it with
composite characters adding pull. Jessie Marshel Senior,

935
01:14:48.239 --> 01:14:56.159
of course, never investigated the Roswell
case, but for the movie he

936
01:14:56.239 --> 01:15:00.960
became. He became the way of
moving the story forward that he's looking for

937
01:15:01.039 --> 01:15:09.720
these various aspects of the case.
So they said it in a dramatic environment,

938
01:15:09.960 --> 01:15:14.399
but they tried to hold it the
facts of the case as best they

939
01:15:14.439 --> 01:15:17.840
could to what we knew in nineteen
ninety four about the case. So you

940
01:15:17.920 --> 01:15:27.279
might have a character who doesn't didn't
exist in real life talking about part of

941
01:15:27.319 --> 01:15:30.479
the story to move it forward.
But it's a composite of two or three

942
01:15:30.520 --> 01:15:35.000
characters. I know in the movie, Glenn Dennis didn't want wouldn't sign the

943
01:15:35.039 --> 01:15:40.319
release to allow his name to be
used in the movie. Oh right,

944
01:15:40.439 --> 01:15:43.119
I did notice his name is different, and I don't think I ever asked

945
01:15:43.119 --> 01:15:45.960
about that. Yeah, well,
and he wouldn't sign the release. So

946
01:15:46.000 --> 01:15:51.920
what they did was he used Paul
David's name. Because Glenn Dennis is like

947
01:15:51.920 --> 01:15:57.119
two first names, and Paul Davids
is like two first names, So they

948
01:15:57.119 --> 01:16:01.000
did a play on Paul David's name
in the film David Paul or Paul David

949
01:16:01.079 --> 01:16:04.279
or something like that. They say
like that, And so he became the

950
01:16:04.800 --> 01:16:10.359
mortician who tells the story about ordering
the or getting the call about the small

951
01:16:10.399 --> 01:16:19.079
coffins. And so they tried to
maintain the factual framework of the story but

952
01:16:19.399 --> 01:16:24.159
put it in a fictional context.
And like I said, you know,

953
01:16:25.359 --> 01:16:30.600
the director, Jeremy Kagan was well
aware of what he was doing, making

954
01:16:30.600 --> 01:16:36.359
a movie and not a documentary.
If the two collided, the factual basis

955
01:16:36.520 --> 01:16:42.920
collided with the framework of the story, well then he went with the story.

956
01:16:42.960 --> 01:16:46.720
And that's exactly right. He was
making a movie. If he was

957
01:16:46.760 --> 01:16:50.159
making a documentary, then he would
then required to stick with the facts,

958
01:16:50.159 --> 01:16:53.800
but since he was making a movie, he had been them to fit the

959
01:16:53.840 --> 01:16:57.880
framework of his film. How did
you fill with the results? Oh?

960
01:16:57.920 --> 01:17:00.359
I love the movie. Yeah,
I love it too. I uh well,

961
01:17:00.399 --> 01:17:03.720
I especially love one watching the opening
credits where it's based on the book

962
01:17:03.720 --> 01:17:06.680
by Kevin Rand. You watch that
over and over again? Oh yeah,

963
01:17:06.920 --> 01:17:11.159
do you flame on that? Let's
get pictures of that and then of course

964
01:17:11.680 --> 01:17:15.720
at the at the end, watching
the closing credits, look for my name

965
01:17:15.840 --> 01:17:20.319
crawling across the closing credits. But
going to what about the middle stuff in

966
01:17:20.359 --> 01:17:23.279
between the credits? Did you like
that? Did that? They're not?

967
01:17:23.359 --> 01:17:26.760
All right? Yeah? That was
that was good too. But but going

968
01:17:26.760 --> 01:17:30.159
to going to premiers, they got
to go to a couple of Hollywood premiers

969
01:17:30.279 --> 01:17:33.640
because Paul David's had invitations, and
he took on and met a couple of

970
01:17:33.680 --> 01:17:39.000
Hollywood premiers. And what I found
interesting is how the audiences would have plod

971
01:17:39.079 --> 01:17:42.039
the names as they came up on
the on the screen, you know,

972
01:17:42.359 --> 01:17:45.520
directed by yay, you know that
sort of thing. And and and they

973
01:17:45.560 --> 01:17:47.680
sit there quietly and watch the movie, and they sit there through the closing

974
01:17:47.720 --> 01:17:53.720
credits. Nobody walked out when the
credits ran. The credits like in a

975
01:17:53.760 --> 01:17:56.600
regular movie, everybody who cares about
the credits and they leave. But in

976
01:17:57.079 --> 01:17:59.800
the Hollywood, when they're at the
premiere, they watched the credits. They

977
01:17:59.840 --> 01:18:05.199
want and the apod for people.
Did you get some applies? Yes,

978
01:18:05.239 --> 01:18:13.079
but only because I started it.
I was flapping for me and everybody picked

979
01:18:13.079 --> 01:18:16.359
it up. Yeah, yeah,
ran, well way to go. What

980
01:18:16.479 --> 01:18:21.880
about the aftermath. Did you have
a lot of people coming to you afterwards,

981
01:18:23.239 --> 01:18:30.239
maybe more witnesses or some maybe well
known people or high ranking people who

982
01:18:30.239 --> 01:18:34.239
came to you to talk about the
film, not after the movie, after

983
01:18:34.439 --> 01:18:39.239
after some of the documentaries. Yeah, we we found people after the documentaries

984
01:18:39.239 --> 01:18:42.199
and people came forward. That was
how gerald Anderson appeared. As a matter

985
01:18:42.239 --> 01:18:48.119
of fact, after Unfaded Mystery had
done the program about about Oswell, gerald

986
01:18:48.119 --> 01:18:51.560
Anderson sent both me and Stan Friedman
a letter. I just have to talk

987
01:18:51.600 --> 01:19:00.800
to talk to him first about his
alleged involvement. But but some of that's

988
01:19:00.840 --> 01:19:03.479
how we learned of it. But
a lot of the witnesses that we found

989
01:19:03.520 --> 01:19:09.479
we went out and searched for.
We had that yearbook that that Walter hot

990
01:19:09.479 --> 01:19:12.479
had produced in nineteen forty seven,
and what a tool that turned out to

991
01:19:12.520 --> 01:19:16.520
be, because here's a list of
I forget what the number he has made,

992
01:19:16.520 --> 01:19:20.640
twenty five hundred people who are signed
to the base. We've we've got

993
01:19:20.640 --> 01:19:26.239
pictures of him and a list of
their names. There was a phone book

994
01:19:27.279 --> 01:19:30.920
that had been produced for the base
in nineteen forty seven, so we had

995
01:19:31.680 --> 01:19:36.319
the names of a lot of the
officers in that phone book. And one

996
01:19:36.319 --> 01:19:40.760
of the reasons I point that out
is a woman named Elaine Vay, who

997
01:19:41.199 --> 01:19:45.000
contacted us after the Unsolved Mysteries program, said, here, uncle Darlant Rasmussen

998
01:19:45.039 --> 01:19:48.520
had been at the base in nineteen
forty seven, and so we looked him

999
01:19:48.560 --> 01:19:53.119
up in the yearbook and he's not
there, but he is in the phone

1000
01:19:53.119 --> 01:19:58.720
book. So Walter had told me
that ten to fifteen twenty percent of the

1001
01:19:58.720 --> 01:20:00.840
people who were signed to the base
in nineteen forty seven would in the yearbook,

1002
01:20:01.600 --> 01:20:04.760
but we could we could place Darlin
Rasmussen there because we found his name

1003
01:20:04.800 --> 01:20:10.399
in the telephone directory, and so
we would we would go down these lists

1004
01:20:10.680 --> 01:20:13.520
of names. I went. I
tried to find the people in the MP

1005
01:20:13.680 --> 01:20:16.279
squadrons, for example, to talk
to them about what their involvement might have

1006
01:20:16.359 --> 01:20:19.119
been. So we had a list
of a lot of those people, and

1007
01:20:19.159 --> 01:20:25.680
we're continuing to follow that today,
looking for people who were appeared in the

1008
01:20:25.720 --> 01:20:29.159
yearbook. Now we're twenty years down
the road and we're talking to guys who

1009
01:20:29.159 --> 01:20:32.479
are ninety and when we can find
them alive, or we're talking to family

1010
01:20:32.520 --> 01:20:39.359
members about what the family members may
have their their relatives may have said to

1011
01:20:39.439 --> 01:20:44.920
him about the Roswell case. But
we still find some people alive today who

1012
01:20:45.159 --> 01:20:49.520
who can tell us a little bit
about this, what's happened to me in

1013
01:20:49.560 --> 01:20:54.000
the last couple of months, and
the people I've talked to. I talked

1014
01:20:54.039 --> 01:21:00.039
to one guy who is in Minnesota. I remember he was in Minnesota and

1015
01:21:00.079 --> 01:21:01.159
I thought would all he'd be a
Vikings fan. Turned out he was a

1016
01:21:01.199 --> 01:21:05.199
Green Bay fan. Kind of surprised
me. But I talked to him briefly

1017
01:21:05.199 --> 01:21:08.399
and he said, well, no, he wasn't really directly involved, but

1018
01:21:08.479 --> 01:21:10.680
some of his friends were and they
told him a little bit about it.

1019
01:21:10.720 --> 01:21:14.960
So, I mean, I found
a guy who was alive from that time

1020
01:21:15.039 --> 01:21:18.079
frame who talked about what he what
his impressions were, what was going on

1021
01:21:18.119 --> 01:21:21.560
at the base at the time.
And I know, I know, what

1022
01:21:23.720 --> 01:21:28.039
does he believe that? Oh yeah, he talked to his friends had told

1023
01:21:28.119 --> 01:21:30.000
him that they had been involved in
it, and that like that. I

1024
01:21:30.039 --> 01:21:34.640
found an MP who wasn't involved,
and he said when they when his friends

1025
01:21:34.640 --> 01:21:38.000
told him about it, he didn't
believe him until he saw the story in

1026
01:21:38.039 --> 01:21:43.479
the newspaper. That tells me.
It tells me that the guys were out

1027
01:21:43.640 --> 01:21:47.079
a cordoning off the area prior to
Wolverhowt's press release, and they would came

1028
01:21:47.079 --> 01:21:49.720
back into the barracks and we're talking
about what they had seen, and the

1029
01:21:49.720 --> 01:21:53.479
guy said, I I didn't believe
HI until myself story in the newspaper.

1030
01:21:53.880 --> 01:22:02.159
Wow. There was another guy,
guy named Piles. Piles, and he

1031
01:22:02.199 --> 01:22:05.920
talked about seeing something in the sky, traveling across the sky one night,

1032
01:22:06.600 --> 01:22:11.359
and he said he wasn't he didn't
think much about it until he saw the

1033
01:22:11.439 --> 01:22:14.439
article in the newspaper a couple of
days later, Well, that might have

1034
01:22:14.479 --> 01:22:17.800
been the thing. Which is interesting
because Carl Flock and his book was making

1035
01:22:18.680 --> 01:22:23.920
explaining how Don and I had made
up this story about Piles and what he

1036
01:22:23.920 --> 01:22:29.720
had seen and what he had done, and Piles couldn't even remember what time

1037
01:22:29.760 --> 01:22:32.479
of year it was and even what
year it had happened. And then my

1038
01:22:32.520 --> 01:22:38.000
two paragraphs later in Carl's book,
the guy says, you know, a

1039
01:22:38.000 --> 01:22:41.000
couple of days later, when I
saw the object, I saw the article

1040
01:22:41.000 --> 01:22:43.119
in the newspaper, I realized that
might have been the thing I saw.

1041
01:22:43.199 --> 01:22:45.039
I'm thinking, well, gee,
where that puts it in the first week

1042
01:22:45.039 --> 01:22:48.159
of July, just like we said, and the skeptics can't seem to read

1043
01:22:48.279 --> 01:22:53.560
from you know, halfway down the
page from he's saying, you guys couldn't

1044
01:22:53.600 --> 01:22:56.640
even the guy couldn't even remember what
time of year and year it was.

1045
01:22:56.680 --> 01:23:00.840
And three paragraphs later he's pinned it
down to a speci think week in July

1046
01:23:00.880 --> 01:23:08.760
of nineteen forty seven. So the
Rosewell Dream Team. I wanted to get

1047
01:23:08.800 --> 01:23:14.560
to that this is something new that
you and Don and Tom have gotten together.

1048
01:23:14.600 --> 01:23:17.199
And I think a couple of people
have been added to the team too.

1049
01:23:18.159 --> 01:23:26.039
How did this come about and why
now? Tom Kerry, after we

1050
01:23:26.079 --> 01:23:32.640
had talked down in Roswell, called
me one day and wanted to do wanted

1051
01:23:33.239 --> 01:23:35.760
it was something I had thought about
as well, and in fact i'd actually

1052
01:23:35.760 --> 01:23:41.039
approached the publish here before we got
down to Roswell this last time, suggesting

1053
01:23:41.520 --> 01:23:45.199
we do the definitive Roswell book.
Look at all the evidence, look at

1054
01:23:45.239 --> 01:23:49.039
everything we've got today, put it
in perspective as we understand it today,

1055
01:23:49.800 --> 01:23:55.880
the skeptical arguments, the Air Force
arguments, all of this stuff. And

1056
01:23:55.960 --> 01:24:00.039
Tom called me and he had a
similar idea and thought that he and I

1057
01:24:00.079 --> 01:24:04.359
should get together to put together this
book. And I said okay, and

1058
01:24:04.960 --> 01:24:10.399
we made a deal that if I
sold the book, my name would go

1059
01:24:10.439 --> 01:24:13.239
first. If he sold the book
to his publisher, his name would go

1060
01:24:13.319 --> 01:24:15.359
first. And we talked about this
and he said, well, we've got

1061
01:24:15.359 --> 01:24:18.000
to get Don involved in this,
and I said, yeah, yeah,

1062
01:24:18.039 --> 01:24:23.560
we've got to. So we you
know, he talked to Don about this

1063
01:24:23.640 --> 01:24:27.119
and Don Don of course came right
on board. And then as we were

1064
01:24:27.119 --> 01:24:29.560
thinking about it later on, we
said, you know, there are some

1065
01:24:29.640 --> 01:24:31.880
other people who should be involved in
this. David Rudiac, for example,

1066
01:24:31.880 --> 01:24:35.960
who's done all that work on the
Rainy memo. We need to get his

1067
01:24:36.159 --> 01:24:43.640
take on this thing and bring his
information to bear on this problem, because

1068
01:24:44.039 --> 01:24:51.640
if we can get a consensus on
what the Ramy Memo says by disinterested parties.

1069
01:24:51.680 --> 01:24:56.640
For example, we've got a document
that we've got a clear providence for

1070
01:24:56.760 --> 01:25:00.359
because Ramy's holding in his fist,
and we know when the pick sure was

1071
01:25:00.359 --> 01:25:04.159
taken because we've got the documentation from
the Bettman photo archives. And so here's

1072
01:25:04.279 --> 01:25:08.479
a document with a clear providence,
and if we can just decipher what it

1073
01:25:08.600 --> 01:25:12.520
says to the satisfaction of the majority
of the people, then we've got a

1074
01:25:12.640 --> 01:25:16.279
nice piece of evidence. Yeah,
that's great and just for people who might

1075
01:25:16.319 --> 01:25:19.600
not know. It's one of the
pictures, the famous pictures black and white

1076
01:25:19.680 --> 01:25:26.399
pictures where they're holding the radar,
Yeah, when they's got the weather balloon.

1077
01:25:26.399 --> 01:25:30.199
The pictures taken in Ramy's office.
There's two pictures of Ramy, two

1078
01:25:30.199 --> 01:25:33.920
pictures of Ramy and Dubau's and two
pictures of Jesse Marcel. And in the

1079
01:25:33.960 --> 01:25:39.800
pictures with Rainy in them, he's
holding a piece of paper in his hand.

1080
01:25:39.880 --> 01:25:43.359
Well, it turned out in one
of those pictures it's turned in such

1081
01:25:43.359 --> 01:25:46.319
a way that you can actually if
you've got to blow up of the picture,

1082
01:25:46.840 --> 01:25:50.000
you know, a kid with a
magnifying glass can read some of the

1083
01:25:50.000 --> 01:25:54.680
words. I mean, clearly you
can read part of it, but a

1084
01:25:54.680 --> 01:25:59.039
lot of it is very obscured.
Which words are you confident about, Well,

1085
01:25:59.039 --> 01:26:02.760
there's only really there's five words that
at this point of investigation, since

1086
01:26:02.760 --> 01:26:05.399
we're kind of relooking at this,
there's five words that I think. There's

1087
01:26:05.439 --> 01:26:09.520
one point where says Fort Worth,
Texas. And there's another point where it

1088
01:26:09.520 --> 01:26:15.199
says weather balloons and the balloon is
misspelled. But I mean those jump out

1089
01:26:15.239 --> 01:26:21.000
at you, and so truly you
can read part of this some of the

1090
01:26:21.039 --> 01:26:26.399
other stuff you can read. Yeah, it looks like it says that it

1091
01:26:26.439 --> 01:26:30.720
may. But in today's environment,
as we improve our techniques, we might

1092
01:26:30.760 --> 01:26:31.840
be able to get more and more
of this. And I know it's we

1093
01:26:31.840 --> 01:26:35.159
can looked at from a number of
different points of view by a number of

1094
01:26:35.239 --> 01:26:42.920
different investigators, not just doctor Rudiac, but some other people are attempting to

1095
01:26:43.000 --> 01:26:46.520
get independent corroboration of what this says. And if we can get two,

1096
01:26:46.600 --> 01:26:48.840
if we get three or four of
those people, we can get a consensus

1097
01:26:48.880 --> 01:26:56.319
of what it says. Depending on
what it says. Doctor Rudiac says,

1098
01:26:56.319 --> 01:26:59.199
there's one point where says victims of
the wreck. Well, that's pretty specific,

1099
01:26:59.760 --> 01:27:03.000
right, and discs recovered. Yes, yeah, that's pretty specific.

1100
01:27:03.039 --> 01:27:08.399
There's others who said that the victims
of the wreck is actually remains of the

1101
01:27:08.399 --> 01:27:12.319
wreck. Well that's that's a little
bit different. But if we can get

1102
01:27:12.319 --> 01:27:16.039
a consensus on some of those sorts
of things from independent not researchers, but

1103
01:27:16.359 --> 01:27:21.199
more independent researchers who are disinterested in
the Roswell case, then we've got a

1104
01:27:21.279 --> 01:27:26.960
very very good piece of evidence to
look at. So you know, we're

1105
01:27:27.000 --> 01:27:29.840
looking we're looking at all that sort
of thing. I've spent some time trying

1106
01:27:29.840 --> 01:27:34.000
to get the nodems, which your
notices to airmen, which are published all

1107
01:27:34.000 --> 01:27:40.279
the time, and you know what
they are is hazards to aerial navigation,

1108
01:27:40.920 --> 01:27:45.800
changes in airport runways, runways are
out of service for whatever reason, things

1109
01:27:45.880 --> 01:27:49.600
like that, And so I was
looking to get to see if the notems

1110
01:27:49.640 --> 01:27:55.439
for July, June and July of
nineteen forty seven still existed anywhere. And

1111
01:27:55.640 --> 01:27:59.279
just today, as a matter of
fact, I heard from the FOYA officer

1112
01:28:00.199 --> 01:28:06.840
at the FAA who said that all
those documents have been long destroyed, not

1113
01:28:06.960 --> 01:28:15.920
improperly. The notems have a shelf
life and they would routinely purge their files

1114
01:28:15.960 --> 01:28:18.359
of the notems. There's no repository
for them, there was no archives.

1115
01:28:18.399 --> 01:28:21.479
Nobody thought to save them, especially
back in nineteen forty seven, because who

1116
01:28:21.479 --> 01:28:27.399
would care. So just today we
learned that that avenue of the investigation has

1117
01:28:27.479 --> 01:28:32.199
now been shut down and it's not
going There's one other bit of information about

1118
01:28:32.199 --> 01:28:35.680
the notems that may come into play, but we're not going to be able

1119
01:28:35.720 --> 01:28:41.600
to document anything from the notems from
the FAA. So, you know,

1120
01:28:41.800 --> 01:28:45.479
just kind of one of the breaks
of the game. It's exciting though that

1121
01:28:45.560 --> 01:28:48.399
you guys still work on this,
You're still making discoveries, and I think,

1122
01:28:48.439 --> 01:28:53.239
what, of course, what would
be ironic? And from talking to

1123
01:28:53.319 --> 01:28:57.520
you and Don and Tom I had
them on the show as well, and

1124
01:28:57.640 --> 01:29:01.640
you know, talking to you Owen
Roswell, is that it's possible that this

1125
01:29:01.800 --> 01:29:06.760
still may be the case that that
breaks stuff open. You still have the

1126
01:29:06.880 --> 01:29:14.720
chance of discovering some evidence that is
just like the memo or other pieces that

1127
01:29:14.760 --> 01:29:17.920
you're working on, that may be
the one to really break this open and

1128
01:29:18.720 --> 01:29:21.600
show that it's it's credible to the
public. Well, we're and we're looking.

1129
01:29:21.680 --> 01:29:25.760
We're looking. We're looking at the
stuff that has gone on before us.

1130
01:29:25.800 --> 01:29:29.960
I mean, I've got literally hours
and hours of taped interviews with witnesses.

1131
01:29:30.800 --> 01:29:33.760
Well, let's see if there was
something somebody said early on that we

1132
01:29:33.840 --> 01:29:40.199
missed because at the time it seemed
unimportant, but now is incredibly important from

1133
01:29:40.239 --> 01:29:45.319
what we've learned from that from that
point, So we go back and reviewing

1134
01:29:45.359 --> 01:29:48.279
all of that sort of thing.
I know, some of the stuff that

1135
01:29:48.279 --> 01:29:57.039
we're finding in newspapers about the Mogul
project and what Irving Newton, who was

1136
01:29:57.039 --> 01:30:01.760
the weather officer at what were said
about this in nineteen forty seven as opposed

1137
01:30:01.800 --> 01:30:05.000
to what he said much later,
when we're finding out there's a real contradiction

1138
01:30:05.119 --> 01:30:15.119
there, and that's becoming very important. About the frequency that these weather balloons

1139
01:30:15.159 --> 01:30:18.199
with the radar reflectors were launched around
the country. We find out that even

1140
01:30:18.239 --> 01:30:21.920
though they said in the mid nineteen
nineties, well, they didn't use them

1141
01:30:23.000 --> 01:30:26.479
very often and they were very unusual
and sort of thing according to the newspapers

1142
01:30:26.479 --> 01:30:29.399
back in nineteen forty seven, it
wasn't that unusual, and a lot of

1143
01:30:29.439 --> 01:30:32.119
places launched them. So we can
go back and in fact, Newton says

1144
01:30:32.119 --> 01:30:34.920
that is quoted saying that in one
of the newspaper articles. So we can

1145
01:30:34.960 --> 01:30:40.520
go back and look at that stuff. Right, Well, we're about out

1146
01:30:40.560 --> 01:30:44.159
of time. It was a lot
of fun. You're working on a new

1147
01:30:44.199 --> 01:30:47.159
book. It looks like like I
had mentioned Murray Island and that's going to

1148
01:30:47.159 --> 01:30:54.199
be in there, including this roads
photograph taken in July seventh, nineteen forty

1149
01:30:54.239 --> 01:30:57.079
seven, in the Phoenix area I'm
living in, which is a really cool

1150
01:30:57.079 --> 01:31:00.960
photo. And you've done some great
work there which people can read at your

1151
01:31:00.039 --> 01:31:05.359
site. Kevin Randall dot bugspot dot
com. Yes, they can, they

1152
01:31:05.399 --> 01:31:09.800
can go. They can go.
They can go to Amazon dot com and

1153
01:31:09.920 --> 01:31:13.760
if they've got a kindle or an
iPad with a Kindle lap on it,

1154
01:31:13.800 --> 01:31:18.479
they can download the Reflections of a
UFO Investigator and begin reading it almost immediately

1155
01:31:19.359 --> 01:31:25.239
excellent. And then they can also
go to IMDb and read all about You

1156
01:31:25.399 --> 01:31:31.239
and then the movie Start Business You've
you've gotten yourself into. Yeah, that

1157
01:31:31.399 --> 01:31:34.399
just cracks me up. I'm I'm
I'm in. I'm up there with people

1158
01:31:34.399 --> 01:31:38.880
like Paul Newman, I'm at the
Internet movie data by its cracks me up.

1159
01:31:39.319 --> 01:31:42.680
And then your Amazon bio I saw
I said you hope to be in

1160
01:31:42.720 --> 01:31:47.520
the Amazing Race. Yeah, I
didn't remember saying that, but but yes,

1161
01:31:47.560 --> 01:31:49.880
I've always I've always enjoyed the Amazing
Race. I know the guy I

1162
01:31:49.920 --> 01:31:54.079
should go go on it with a
friend of mine named Tim Bantz, who

1163
01:31:55.079 --> 01:31:59.279
has been a voting rider for twenty
five thirty years and they're always sending him

1164
01:31:59.279 --> 01:32:02.079
around the world to voting shows and
things like that. And I thought,

1165
01:32:02.119 --> 01:32:05.239
here's a guy that would know the
ins and outs of working the airport systems

1166
01:32:05.279 --> 01:32:11.520
to get us to locations as quickly
as possible. So I've always said if

1167
01:32:11.520 --> 01:32:13.399
I was going to go on one
of these shows, I think it'd be

1168
01:32:13.439 --> 01:32:15.920
the Amazing Race, because that looks
like it'd be the most fun. Yeah.

1169
01:32:15.960 --> 01:32:18.560
Well, you're in IMDb, so
you're also eligible to be on Dancing

1170
01:32:18.560 --> 01:32:23.079
with the Stars. Now, I
think I did not know that. I

1171
01:32:23.119 --> 01:32:27.319
think I will tell you that if
they ever got that far off the list,

1172
01:32:28.159 --> 01:32:31.039
I would find a reason. Not
that he on it, not when

1173
01:32:31.079 --> 01:32:35.720
you're looking forward to no, but
but Sean Johnson, who won the gold

1174
01:32:35.800 --> 01:32:42.319
medal in the Olympics in gymnastics from
Iowa de Moine, Iowa, she won

1175
01:32:42.479 --> 01:32:45.439
Dancing with the Stars. So I
say that because I live in Iowa.

1176
01:32:45.000 --> 01:32:48.800
Gotcha. Well, thank you so
much for being on the show. I

1177
01:32:48.840 --> 01:32:54.479
think obviously there's a lot more to
talk about, so hopefully you'll come back

1178
01:32:54.520 --> 01:32:58.399
and we can catch up on more
of what you're always up to. You

1179
01:32:58.479 --> 01:33:01.199
have the phone number, yep,
I sure do keep it on file.

1180
01:33:01.800 --> 01:33:06.840
Yeah, there you go. All
right, Thanks, thank you, Thanks

1181
01:33:06.840 --> 01:33:13.399
for joining me again everybody. That
wraps up our show, And no worries,

1182
01:33:13.439 --> 01:33:15.079
we're still gonna be around. We're
still gonna be here doing shows.

1183
01:33:15.199 --> 01:33:20.159
