00:00:01.199 --> 00:00:11.359
<v Speaker 1>Yerssy. This is the seventy seven WABC Mini Cast with

2
00:00:11.640 --> 00:00:16.039
<v Speaker 1>Robert Clotworthy, the voice of Ancient Aliens, the voice of

3
00:00:16.120 --> 00:00:20.399
<v Speaker 1>the Curse of Oak Island Gold, the man who voices

4
00:00:20.600 --> 00:00:23.440
<v Speaker 1>all of the shows that we watch in silence and

5
00:00:23.559 --> 00:00:28.800
<v Speaker 1>private when our women companions are doing something else and

6
00:00:28.839 --> 00:00:31.839
<v Speaker 1>we actually get to choose what we want to watch

7
00:00:31.879 --> 00:00:36.119
<v Speaker 1>on TV. We are greeted by the voice of Robert Clotworthy.

8
00:00:36.320 --> 00:00:40.600
<v Speaker 2>Hello, Robert, I am hungry Walter. I all that talk

9
00:00:40.640 --> 00:00:42.799
<v Speaker 2>about Peter Lugers.

10
00:00:42.600 --> 00:00:44.880
<v Speaker 1>Isn't that remarkable? Have you been to Peter Luger.

11
00:00:45.280 --> 00:00:47.679
<v Speaker 2>I have not, but Kevin Burns, I know, we talked

12
00:00:47.880 --> 00:00:51.359
<v Speaker 2>a little bit about him last week, the late creator

13
00:00:51.439 --> 00:00:55.799
<v Speaker 2>of Ancient Aliens and Curse oak Island. He actually had

14
00:00:56.159 --> 00:01:01.600
<v Speaker 2>a Peter Luger's credit card. I know they only take cash,

15
00:01:01.960 --> 00:01:05.519
<v Speaker 2>but a few people have an account. He had an

16
00:01:05.519 --> 00:01:10.560
<v Speaker 2>account and he would give steaks, boxes of steaks as

17
00:01:11.159 --> 00:01:15.799
<v Speaker 2>Christmas gifts. He even flew he was you know he

18
00:01:15.840 --> 00:01:18.760
<v Speaker 2>did he does the Unknown, did the Unknown or with

19
00:01:18.920 --> 00:01:24.159
<v Speaker 2>William Shatner, and he was flying William to something and

20
00:01:24.200 --> 00:01:26.920
<v Speaker 2>he said, you know what, let's stop off at Peter Luger's.

21
00:01:27.079 --> 00:01:30.840
<v Speaker 2>It's on the way, so they had the jet change

22
00:01:30.959 --> 00:01:33.680
<v Speaker 2>course go to New York so he could go to

23
00:01:33.719 --> 00:01:35.879
<v Speaker 2>Peter Luger's and have lunch.

24
00:01:36.439 --> 00:01:39.319
<v Speaker 1>And in fairness, Kevin Burns looks like the sort of

25
00:01:39.319 --> 00:01:42.359
<v Speaker 1>fellow who would enjoy lunch at Peter Luger's.

26
00:01:43.000 --> 00:01:46.040
<v Speaker 2>Oh my goodness, yeah, he I'm sure could finish the steak,

27
00:01:46.159 --> 00:01:49.519
<v Speaker 2>no problem. You know out here there's a place called

28
00:01:49.599 --> 00:01:52.719
<v Speaker 2>rus Chris and Beverly Hills when that was there, not

29
00:01:52.760 --> 00:01:55.840
<v Speaker 2>only was he a regular there, they actually had his

30
00:01:56.040 --> 00:01:57.959
<v Speaker 2>name on one of the booths.

31
00:01:58.400 --> 00:02:01.359
<v Speaker 1>Yes, I don't doubt that for one second. He would

32
00:02:01.359 --> 00:02:04.079
<v Speaker 1>be a larger than life character from birth.

33
00:02:05.079 --> 00:02:06.719
<v Speaker 2>Yeah yeah, yeah.

34
00:02:07.040 --> 00:02:08.560
<v Speaker 1>Now who runs the show?

35
00:02:08.639 --> 00:02:15.000
<v Speaker 2>Now, there's when Kevin passed away, he left the production

36
00:02:15.159 --> 00:02:18.759
<v Speaker 2>company to three people. Joe Lissard, which was who was

37
00:02:18.840 --> 00:02:23.520
<v Speaker 2>his personal assistant. He was, you know, he was Kevin's

38
00:02:23.599 --> 00:02:28.960
<v Speaker 2>right hand man. Kim Egan, who he's known since he

39
00:02:29.080 --> 00:02:33.039
<v Speaker 2>was in Boston, and then Dave Comtwice who was actually

40
00:02:33.039 --> 00:02:37.639
<v Speaker 2>his teacher's assistant when he was teaching film at Boston University.

41
00:02:37.840 --> 00:02:39.919
<v Speaker 2>So they go way back. They've they've known each other

42
00:02:39.960 --> 00:02:42.400
<v Speaker 2>a long time. So the three of them are now

43
00:02:42.520 --> 00:02:46.039
<v Speaker 2>the people that run Prometheus, and I got to say

44
00:02:46.039 --> 00:02:50.199
<v Speaker 2>they're doing I mean, they've taken what Kevin created and

45
00:02:51.159 --> 00:02:54.840
<v Speaker 2>made it even better. What Cintry all tell wonderful Kevin stories.

46
00:02:55.439 --> 00:02:59.639
<v Speaker 1>I'm sure every television series that I've ever known has

47
00:02:59.680 --> 00:03:02.840
<v Speaker 1>been by the type of person that Kevin Burns was.

48
00:03:02.919 --> 00:03:05.280
<v Speaker 1>They are they have to be larger than life just

49
00:03:05.319 --> 00:03:09.240
<v Speaker 1>to deal with the bureaucracy of their distributor. Yeah, and

50
00:03:09.280 --> 00:03:13.240
<v Speaker 1>to deal with the bureaucracy of production unions and egos

51
00:03:13.240 --> 00:03:15.280
<v Speaker 1>and oh my gosh, and they and they have to

52
00:03:15.400 --> 00:03:18.479
<v Speaker 1>feel that they're always right. But his vision is brilliant

53
00:03:18.520 --> 00:03:23.639
<v Speaker 1>because a lot of television producers that I have known

54
00:03:24.400 --> 00:03:27.919
<v Speaker 1>there they have very big ideas, and they're very good ideas,

55
00:03:28.000 --> 00:03:31.520
<v Speaker 1>and they have insanely expensive ideas, and that hurts them

56
00:03:31.520 --> 00:03:35.080
<v Speaker 1>getting them on the air, whereas Kevin's ideas meet all

57
00:03:35.080 --> 00:03:39.000
<v Speaker 1>the criteria but appear to be economical and makes sense.

58
00:03:39.960 --> 00:03:43.280
<v Speaker 2>Yeah. Yeah, yeah, he was. He was brilliant in that way.

59
00:03:43.280 --> 00:03:48.800
<v Speaker 2>He really understood what the public was interested in. He

60
00:03:48.840 --> 00:03:52.599
<v Speaker 2>was a fan of television and a fan of those shows.

61
00:03:52.599 --> 00:03:56.919
<v Speaker 2>I mean, you know, he did the all those biography shows.

62
00:03:57.319 --> 00:04:01.520
<v Speaker 2>He was doing narration for a lot documentaries for a long,

63
00:04:01.560 --> 00:04:06.680
<v Speaker 2>long time, so we really understood the business and he

64
00:04:06.840 --> 00:04:09.479
<v Speaker 2>just had this ability at his fingers on the pulse

65
00:04:09.520 --> 00:04:11.280
<v Speaker 2>of what the public was interested in.

66
00:04:12.159 --> 00:04:18.639
<v Speaker 1>Now, this week there was Robert Clotworthy news five thousand

67
00:04:18.680 --> 00:04:22.560
<v Speaker 1>explosions were slammed against the moon to see what would happen.

68
00:04:24.240 --> 00:04:27.360
<v Speaker 2>And well, and by the way, thank you for sending

69
00:04:27.399 --> 00:04:32.319
<v Speaker 2>me that the Sumerian texts or the cuneiform tablets that

70
00:04:32.399 --> 00:04:36.839
<v Speaker 2>talk about the Earth before the moon. And by the way,

71
00:04:36.920 --> 00:04:39.120
<v Speaker 2>I think we're going to be doing another episode about

72
00:04:39.120 --> 00:04:39.480
<v Speaker 2>the moon.

73
00:04:39.839 --> 00:04:42.639
<v Speaker 1>I'm sure, and I'm sure that that was what I

74
00:04:42.680 --> 00:04:44.519
<v Speaker 1>sent you is practically a script for one of your

75
00:04:44.560 --> 00:04:45.199
<v Speaker 1>next shows.

76
00:04:45.839 --> 00:04:46.680
<v Speaker 2>Oh yeah, thank you.

77
00:04:46.879 --> 00:04:49.839
<v Speaker 1>Right. But I think what was interesting this week was

78
00:04:49.879 --> 00:04:52.480
<v Speaker 1>that they slammed a rocket into the moon on purpose.

79
00:04:53.120 --> 00:04:57.959
<v Speaker 1>And Doctor Sky, one of the hosts on the Red

80
00:04:58.000 --> 00:05:01.920
<v Speaker 1>Apple Audio network. Doctor Sky has has a big telescope.

81
00:05:02.199 --> 00:05:05.040
<v Speaker 1>He lives in Arizona, no ambient light. He studied it.

82
00:05:05.120 --> 00:05:08.120
<v Speaker 1>He was staring at that moon and he saw nothing,

83
00:05:08.920 --> 00:05:11.079
<v Speaker 1>and he knew exactly what it should. I think, well,

84
00:05:11.079 --> 00:05:14.560
<v Speaker 1>maybe this is a conspiracy. Maybe nothing did land on

85
00:05:14.600 --> 00:05:16.680
<v Speaker 1>the moon. Maybe they just said it. What do you think?

86
00:05:18.480 --> 00:05:24.639
<v Speaker 2>I think the moon is a giant mystery that's that's

87
00:05:25.639 --> 00:05:29.079
<v Speaker 2>floating around out in space, that has got so many

88
00:05:29.160 --> 00:05:33.800
<v Speaker 2>secrets and mysteries that we that we need to figure out.

89
00:05:33.800 --> 00:05:37.040
<v Speaker 2>There's a lot going on in the Moon. What it is,

90
00:05:38.160 --> 00:05:44.680
<v Speaker 2>why it is is is one of the great mysteries

91
00:05:44.800 --> 00:05:48.160
<v Speaker 2>of life. It's it's It affects our moods, it affects

92
00:05:48.439 --> 00:05:51.120
<v Speaker 2>so much of our day to day life on our

93
00:05:51.160 --> 00:05:54.519
<v Speaker 2>on our planet. And I can't imagine not having it there.

94
00:05:55.480 --> 00:05:57.839
<v Speaker 2>But I believe that it wasn't there at one point.

95
00:05:58.160 --> 00:05:59.920
<v Speaker 1>I believe it wasn't there at one point too. But

96
00:06:00.040 --> 00:06:02.759
<v Speaker 1>the Earth had to be dramatically different than it is today,

97
00:06:02.800 --> 00:06:05.600
<v Speaker 1>the oceans had to be dramatically different. But one of

98
00:06:05.600 --> 00:06:08.720
<v Speaker 1>the things that I find amazing is when I asked,

99
00:06:08.800 --> 00:06:11.680
<v Speaker 1>why did we explode things on the Moon this week?

100
00:06:11.720 --> 00:06:13.839
<v Speaker 1>What was the purpose? And the purpose was to do

101
00:06:13.879 --> 00:06:17.319
<v Speaker 1>a number of tests relative to the light of the sun,

102
00:06:17.439 --> 00:06:19.800
<v Speaker 1>because I had learned that for the first time, I

103
00:06:19.879 --> 00:06:23.720
<v Speaker 1>learned that the craters do not get one hundred percent

104
00:06:24.000 --> 00:06:27.240
<v Speaker 1>exposure on any given day, only about if it's a crater,

105
00:06:27.800 --> 00:06:30.439
<v Speaker 1>only about half the time does the sun hit it,

106
00:06:30.759 --> 00:06:31.680
<v Speaker 1>and the rest of the time.

107
00:06:31.800 --> 00:06:34.279
<v Speaker 2>And that's why you think there's actually there's actually ice,

108
00:06:35.040 --> 00:06:36.160
<v Speaker 2>it's still there.

109
00:06:36.240 --> 00:06:38.800
<v Speaker 1>But then then I said, well, okay, that's nice. What

110
00:06:38.839 --> 00:06:42.199
<v Speaker 1>doesn't matter and they said, well, it'll affect where we

111
00:06:42.319 --> 00:06:46.360
<v Speaker 1>establish bases to live, and the logical place for bases

112
00:06:46.399 --> 00:06:48.439
<v Speaker 1>to live is in the craters because there is the

113
00:06:48.959 --> 00:06:51.240
<v Speaker 1>shade and the sun. I said, And I said, who

114
00:06:51.319 --> 00:06:52.959
<v Speaker 1>the hell would want to live in a crater on

115
00:06:53.000 --> 00:06:57.480
<v Speaker 1>the moon. This sounds like a bad plan. I mean,

116
00:06:58.079 --> 00:07:01.439
<v Speaker 1>the outcome does not seem so you're not going to

117
00:07:01.480 --> 00:07:04.680
<v Speaker 1>be signing up. Well, I think it makes a little

118
00:07:04.720 --> 00:07:08.120
<v Speaker 1>more sense than take a trip to Mars. That's where

119
00:07:08.120 --> 00:07:12.079
<v Speaker 1>you'll die. I think it's better better never coming back, no, never.

120
00:07:11.920 --> 00:07:15.319
<v Speaker 2>Coming And think about it. When you when you're in space,

121
00:07:15.680 --> 00:07:20.600
<v Speaker 2>you grow taller. Oh oh really, that's when I missed them.

122
00:07:20.800 --> 00:07:23.519
<v Speaker 2>Was that like a whole segment on your show that, yes,

123
00:07:23.879 --> 00:07:25.800
<v Speaker 2>you know I was. I was talking to my friend NASA,

124
00:07:25.879 --> 00:07:28.160
<v Speaker 2>and I said, what's you know? Tell me some peculiar

125
00:07:28.199 --> 00:07:30.879
<v Speaker 2>things about space travel. She said, well, they discovered that,

126
00:07:31.639 --> 00:07:34.879
<v Speaker 2>you know, your your spine starts to get longer. Wow,

127
00:07:35.480 --> 00:07:39.439
<v Speaker 2>you actually get taller and and your legs are useless.

128
00:07:39.800 --> 00:07:43.639
<v Speaker 2>She said. A perfect astronaut would be someone with no legs. Wow,

129
00:07:43.800 --> 00:07:45.000
<v Speaker 2>because they just get in the way.

130
00:07:46.720 --> 00:07:50.720
<v Speaker 1>Now, do you have information on upcoming episodes of Ancient

131
00:07:50.759 --> 00:07:52.079
<v Speaker 1>Aliens that you'd like to show?

132
00:07:52.120 --> 00:07:54.680
<v Speaker 2>Yeah? I just did one this week and it's a

133
00:07:54.720 --> 00:08:01.199
<v Speaker 2>biography where we talk about avvy Lobe and the Harvard astrophysicists.

134
00:08:01.199 --> 00:08:04.959
<v Speaker 2>He's actually the head of the Harvard oh god, what

135
00:08:05.079 --> 00:08:12.199
<v Speaker 2>is it astronomy department and his life story about how

136
00:08:12.240 --> 00:08:15.160
<v Speaker 2>he has become you know, first he was a skeptic

137
00:08:15.519 --> 00:08:18.959
<v Speaker 2>when he came to UAPs and now he's I think

138
00:08:19.600 --> 00:08:24.199
<v Speaker 2>working with the White House and is leading the investigation

139
00:08:24.360 --> 00:08:25.920
<v Speaker 2>into UAPs.

140
00:08:26.560 --> 00:08:28.720
<v Speaker 1>And he says that it's a lot different than what

141
00:08:28.759 --> 00:08:30.120
<v Speaker 1>we've been told. Is that right?

142
00:08:31.120 --> 00:08:31.600
<v Speaker 2>Yeah?

143
00:08:31.959 --> 00:08:34.039
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, And you're going to reveal that on your show.

144
00:08:34.639 --> 00:08:36.720
<v Speaker 2>We will be revealing that. We're going to dig deep

145
00:08:36.840 --> 00:08:42.960
<v Speaker 2>into his theories and his book and he's interviewed. It's

146
00:08:43.000 --> 00:08:44.600
<v Speaker 2>a really really good episode.

147
00:08:45.000 --> 00:08:47.039
<v Speaker 1>Right. So he's the man in charge of how much

148
00:08:47.080 --> 00:08:48.840
<v Speaker 1>we get to see and when in terms of the

149
00:08:48.879 --> 00:08:50.360
<v Speaker 1>government files. Is that right?

150
00:08:51.159 --> 00:08:54.960
<v Speaker 2>Yeah? And he's I believe so. And he's a guy

151
00:08:55.000 --> 00:09:00.480
<v Speaker 2>that really wants the information to be out. You know,

152
00:09:00.519 --> 00:09:05.679
<v Speaker 2>he was you know when Muhamoa was first discovered he

153
00:09:05.799 --> 00:09:07.879
<v Speaker 2>was the one that first posited the theory that it

154
00:09:08.080 --> 00:09:11.559
<v Speaker 2>was an extra extraterrestrial craft.

155
00:09:12.639 --> 00:09:14.879
<v Speaker 1>Got it? What day is that going to air? Do

156
00:09:14.919 --> 00:09:15.159
<v Speaker 1>you know?

157
00:09:15.720 --> 00:09:18.000
<v Speaker 2>Who the heck knows? We just recorded it this week.

158
00:09:18.840 --> 00:09:22.960
<v Speaker 2>I'm sure it'll be probably a month or two out.

159
00:09:23.279 --> 00:09:25.679
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, but you're the vo guy. How much posts could

160
00:09:25.679 --> 00:09:27.200
<v Speaker 1>there be? They could probably put that out.

161
00:09:27.039 --> 00:09:30.720
<v Speaker 2>Tomorrow, they could, they could well, you know, maybe not

162
00:09:30.720 --> 00:09:32.159
<v Speaker 2>tomorrow because I'm sure I'll have to go in and

163
00:09:32.159 --> 00:09:35.120
<v Speaker 2>do a few pickups really, but certainly within the next

164
00:09:35.120 --> 00:09:38.799
<v Speaker 2>week or so. It all depends on the History Channel

165
00:09:38.879 --> 00:09:44.399
<v Speaker 2>and how they factored into their schedule. Robert, it seems

166
00:09:44.440 --> 00:09:46.759
<v Speaker 2>like like we don't do ten in a row. It's

167
00:09:46.799 --> 00:09:48.879
<v Speaker 2>like we record them, but then they do two, then

168
00:09:48.879 --> 00:09:51.279
<v Speaker 2>they wait a couple of weeks to another three, so

169
00:09:51.519 --> 00:09:53.399
<v Speaker 2>they release them in blocks.

170
00:09:53.960 --> 00:09:57.480
<v Speaker 1>I learned this week that they shoot three Price of

171
00:09:57.600 --> 00:10:03.799
<v Speaker 1>Rights in a day, three and when mister Barker was alive,

172
00:10:04.159 --> 00:10:06.919
<v Speaker 1>they did one because that's what he wanted to do.

173
00:10:08.879 --> 00:10:13.159
<v Speaker 2>But now I've been to a CBS on Beverly, I've

174
00:10:13.200 --> 00:10:15.559
<v Speaker 2>worked on Young and the Restless when they were doing

175
00:10:15.559 --> 00:10:19.320
<v Speaker 2>the Prices right, and it was on another show. I'll

176
00:10:19.320 --> 00:10:21.919
<v Speaker 2>tell you a few of those experiences because it was wild.

177
00:10:22.159 --> 00:10:25.840
<v Speaker 1>It was an amazing technical achievement when they do that show.

178
00:10:26.360 --> 00:10:29.960
<v Speaker 1>But I thank you Robert Clotworthy, the voice of ancient Aliens,

179
00:10:30.080 --> 00:10:32.919
<v Speaker 1>the voice of the Curse of Oak Island Gold. I

180
00:10:33.000 --> 00:10:34.799
<v Speaker 1>hope you have a great weekend. Thank you for being

181
00:10:34.799 --> 00:10:35.240
<v Speaker 1>on the show.
