Speaker 1: It's night Dan Ray Boston's News Radio.
Speaker 2: All Right, welcome back everybody, thanks to my guest last hour,
Speaker 2: doctor Scott Bonne. And we're going to go to a
Speaker 2: very different subject. That subject we haven't talked about, and
Speaker 2: that is drones over New Jersey and Pennsylvania. I was
Speaker 2: watching CNN at eleven o'clock. That is their lead story tonight.
Speaker 2: NBC News has covered it. ABC World News Tonight had
Speaker 2: it on tonight on tonight's newscast. Uh, here's the problem.
Speaker 2: There have been there have been drones flying in the
Speaker 2: night skies of New Jersey now for weeks, since some
Speaker 2: time before Thanksgiving. Our government to the extent that the
Speaker 2: government that that is now within well getting pretty close
Speaker 2: to uh five weeks left of its term in office,
Speaker 2: is telling us they don't know what it is, but
Speaker 2: not to worry about it. And this was the NSA
Speaker 2: spokesman John Kirby talking about drones and the reporter asks
Speaker 2: him the question, and this is the response from Admiral Kirby.
Speaker 2: Cut seven, Please Rob now on.
Speaker 1: This mysterious drone sighting in New Jersey and now in Philadelphia.
Speaker 2: Is there a concern for the.
Speaker 1: American people about their safety?
Speaker 3: Do you think Americans should be concerned?
Speaker 2: Is this a foreign adversary at work?
Speaker 4: No indication at this time that it's a foreign adversary
Speaker 4: or a foreign actor. The FBI is looking at this,
Speaker 4: Dooj's looking at this. I know the Department of Defense
Speaker 4: when a current, when it affects or comes near a
Speaker 4: military base, they're looking at this. So I don't I
Speaker 4: can't tell you definitively exactly what we're talking about here.
Speaker 4: In some case is the investigation has led to a
Speaker 4: revelation that it's actually manned aircraft and not drones at all.
Speaker 4: So each one's going to be a little bit different.
Speaker 4: And you know, we're looking at this hard. We're concerned
Speaker 4: about it as well. But again I want to stress
Speaker 4: no indication at this time that it's a foreign adversary.
Speaker 2: Okay, So to interpret that for you, he's saying, we
Speaker 2: don't know what they are. Oh, we know they're not
Speaker 2: a foreign adversary. Well, if you don't know what they are,
Speaker 2: Admiral Kirby, how do you know they're not a foreign adversary.
Speaker 2: This is the same administration that watched the Chinese balloon
Speaker 2: float across the United States before it was shot down
Speaker 2: off the Atlantic coast. They could have shot that balloon
Speaker 2: down when it entered our airspace over Montana. They knew
Speaker 2: it was coming, and they didn't. So my question is,
Speaker 2: if you're down in the New Jersey area, we'd love
Speaker 2: to hear from you. If you're down in the Pennsylvania area,
Speaker 2: love to hear from you. And I'd love to hear
Speaker 2: from any of you on this, and particularly those of
Speaker 2: you who may have a little bit more insight in it.
Speaker 2: I've never flown a drone. I don't know how easy
Speaker 2: they are to maneuver. I don't know how difficult they
Speaker 2: are to maneuver. These stories that I have seen is
Speaker 2: that some of these drones are actually quite large. You
Speaker 2: think about drones, and you think about these little planes
Speaker 2: that people fly around. Little drones, However, they can be
Speaker 2: used as a military Who're seeing that now in the
Speaker 2: Middle East, the hoody rebels are using these drones quite effectively,
Speaker 2: maybe not as effectively as the US military responds in kind.
Speaker 2: But look, we don't know, we don't know what we
Speaker 2: don't know, and that is always in a difficult situation
Speaker 2: to be now. Congressman Chris Smith from New Jersey serves
Speaker 2: on the Homeland Security Committee. This was his comments earlier.
Speaker 2: His comments earlier this week cut number twelve.
Speaker 5: I did reach out to the committee officer at the
Speaker 5: joint base, which is also in my district, and talk
Speaker 5: to him at a very good conversation, Colonel Anthony Smith,
Speaker 5: Joint Base Fort dis McGuire and the eighty seventh the
Speaker 5: Air Wing Air Base Wing today and I said, I
Speaker 5: know you have the capability. You put out press releases
Speaker 5: to identify and bring down drones. Why can't you deploy
Speaker 5: them at least to the ocean, bring one of these down,
Speaker 5: find out who's doing it. They have the capability, he said,
Speaker 5: we don't have the authority only within the parameters of
Speaker 5: our base. Well, there's a national interest here. Our jets
Speaker 5: fly over the ocean all the time for trading, so
Speaker 5: that perimeter is larger. So I did write Secretary Lloyd
Speaker 5: Austin asking that that capability that may be sitting in
Speaker 5: a closet somewhere. I know they use it all the time,
Speaker 5: but you know, bring it out. And I'm not saying
Speaker 5: you got to share it with the sheriffs, be nice,
Speaker 5: just do it yourself the interest of the American public.
Speaker 5: So I would ask if you would echo that request.
Speaker 5: I mean, DoD's got the capability, and maybe Homeland Security
Speaker 5: does this.
Speaker 2: Well, what is the problem with taking one of these down?
Speaker 2: That's my question. I mean a drone is by definition unmanned,
Speaker 2: and if a drone is flying over any area. I've
Speaker 2: read up on this a little bit. I'm not an
Speaker 2: expert on it, but I've seen pictures of what people
Speaker 2: have taken, just American citizens. I don't know why they're there. Obviously,
Speaker 2: you have the Bedminster golf course, the golf course owned
Speaker 2: by President elect Trump. It to me is mystifying that
Speaker 2: these would be allowed and for the government, for our
Speaker 2: government to say this is now all out there. This
Speaker 2: is not something that's top secret or classified. It's out there.
Speaker 2: And if it disappears, what information was called? By whom?
Speaker 2: For what purpose? We spend a trillion dollars on in
Speaker 2: our National Defense Department every year. Look, if someone flew
Speaker 2: a fixed wing aircraft near the White House tonight, and
Speaker 2: every once in a while you hear about it, they
Speaker 2: would have US jets scrambled within minutes, and that plane
Speaker 2: would be escorted and brought down somewhere, and they would
Speaker 2: find out who the hell it was, even if it
Speaker 2: was some individual who just was up for the front
Speaker 2: of it and had no idea what airspace they were
Speaker 2: flying through, because that's what you have to assume that
Speaker 2: the intent, that's a malintent here. You kind of assume,
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, that plane that's flying over the White House. Yeah,
Speaker 2: it just looks like a little uh, you know, double
Speaker 2: engine plane looks like me who knows what? No? No,
Speaker 2: And you have again you've seen I guess you've seen it.
Speaker 2: If you haven't seen it, you should And anyway, good
Speaker 2: open up the phone lines. What do you think? Are
Speaker 2: you concerned or not concerned? I live in Massachusetts, but
Speaker 2: what happens to people in New Jersey in Pennsylvania could
Speaker 2: happen to me, could happen to you? And for some reason,
Speaker 2: in the waning days of the Biden administration, the president
Speaker 2: seems to be more focused on pardons, a lot of
Speaker 2: pardons today, acts of clemency, commutations, all of which are important.
Speaker 2: But I think it's really important to find out what's
Speaker 2: going on over New Jersey and what's going on over Pennsylvania.
Speaker 2: Six seven ten thirty six one seven nine ten thirty.
Speaker 2: I wish this was television and I could show you
Speaker 2: the pictures. If you haven't seen the pictures, maybe you
Speaker 2: can find them. Give us a call. Coming back on
Speaker 2: Nightside right after the break.
Speaker 1: Now back to Dan Ray Live from the Window World
Speaker 1: to night Side Studios on WBZ News Radio.
Speaker 2: I've watched this story over the last few weeks, and
Speaker 2: it's fascinated me that, you know, you've had all of
Speaker 2: these these these sightings of so called UFOs or whatever
Speaker 2: they call them now they no longer call them. It's
Speaker 2: unidentified aircraft or something some different time, different phrase. But
Speaker 2: we've had all of these stories over the years about UFOs,
Speaker 2: and you know, most of them have been debunked, although
Speaker 2: there are some that are that are open. And I
Speaker 2: hope that when President Trump takes office, one of the
Speaker 2: first things that he will do will be too basic,
Speaker 2: be transparent, and let the country know whether or not
Speaker 2: we have had any contact legitimate or otherwise, you know,
Speaker 2: any legitimate contact or any suspected contact with other civilizations.
Speaker 2: To put to put it frankly, I don't necessarily believe it.
Speaker 2: If you had to buy to bet one hundred dollars,
Speaker 2: I would say no. But you certainly have seen these
Speaker 2: sightings and you've had people respond to it. Now you
Speaker 2: have swarms of drones. I mean, who are Is it
Speaker 2: a high school technology class? I don't think. So let's
Speaker 2: see what Bill has to say. I hope all of
Speaker 2: you can join in here. Fix six thirty six seven nine,
Speaker 2: three thirty, get on early and we'll get this conversation going. Bill,
Speaker 2: you were first this hour on Nights Side. What are
Speaker 2: your thoughts on this?
Speaker 6: You know, I'm almost apt to say that the governments
Speaker 6: because but the half of me is concerned because they
Speaker 6: did let that balloon go by, and basically the Chinese
Speaker 6: run all over the bases all over the country before
Speaker 6: they did anything about it. So I don't have a
Speaker 6: lot of faith to be proactive because if it is
Speaker 6: a foreign nation, they don't want to bring attention because
Speaker 6: if they shoot one down or you take them down,
Speaker 6: you give the authorization, and it's Chinese pots and Russian
Speaker 6: pots and irany from the Iranians that the problem is
Speaker 6: an active war and they just don't want to be
Speaker 6: bothered with that day.
Speaker 2: Wait a second, Hold on, wait a second. If if
Speaker 2: they were to shoot down one or more of these
Speaker 2: drones and we were to find out that one actually
Speaker 2: was Russia and on one was Chinese and one was Iranian.
Speaker 2: That's not an act of war. The active well them
Speaker 2: sending well, they're drone into our airspace, right.
Speaker 6: Well yeah, but I mean they kept sending up, you know,
Speaker 6: and what they're doing over the you know, I don't know.
Speaker 6: I mean, it's not good. It's definitely especially where we're
Speaker 6: in the knife's edge over in Europe with shooting stuff
Speaker 6: in there, missiled going into Russia for the Ukrainian that's
Speaker 6: not you know.
Speaker 2: I'm more worried about that. I'm more worried about that
Speaker 2: and starting a third World War or World War, you know,
Speaker 2: really big.
Speaker 6: Another concern is you look at one point, I want to.
Speaker 2: Make one other point. Okay, we shot down the Chinese balloon.
Speaker 2: Do you know the Chinese balloon. It came up over
Speaker 2: Alaska and then it went over right down the coast
Speaker 2: of Canada along the Pacific coast of Canada, then made
Speaker 2: a left hand turn and entered our airspace in Montana. Apparently,
Speaker 2: I was speaking to someone in Canada today that a
Speaker 2: lot of their military installations just so happened to be
Speaker 2: on the west coast of Canada. So that balloon back
Speaker 2: a year and a half ago, I think it was
Speaker 2: a year and a half ago. Was actually be directed
Speaker 2: by someone over specific areas that the Chinese government was
Speaker 2: interested in. We shot that down off the coast of
Speaker 2: South Carolina. You know, it's just the cost of doing
Speaker 2: business that China didn't didn't end up in a nuclear
Speaker 2: exchange over that. Why would they be upset if we
Speaker 2: were to take down a drone and was another country?
Speaker 2: I don't get that.
Speaker 7: Yeah, well I don't know.
Speaker 6: I mean, it's it's not good. I mean, and who
Speaker 6: knows what we're gonna find on I mean, I mean,
Speaker 6: if they're flying this easy, they could easily put some
Speaker 6: weapons or even chemicals on there. But another thing, you
Speaker 6: look at them and the light's length. That's almost like
Speaker 6: an FAA requirement. So I'm almost believe that it's the
Speaker 6: government which concerns me more because if what they're probably
Speaker 6: doing is they're looking over a certain area for something,
Speaker 6: and that's something could be a nuclear, it could be
Speaker 6: a biological and they don't want to alarm people, and
Speaker 6: they're doing this and they're keeping it vague. And that's
Speaker 6: even more concerning because we've had a porest border and
Speaker 6: we know how the world is and and and logically,
Speaker 6: it's only a matter of time before something gets in
Speaker 6: here with everything that's going on.
Speaker 2: And I hope that you look okay, just trying to
Speaker 2: understand Bill and pardon me. Normally you and I am
Speaker 2: much more in the same way from here. Are you
Speaker 2: concerned that are you concerned that these drones are actually
Speaker 2: US drones and they're looking for some contamination? Or are
Speaker 2: you concerned that they are drones?
Speaker 7: Yeah?
Speaker 6: No, no, well no, I'm concerned. Well, I'm almost of
Speaker 6: the belief because when when if they were foreign drones,
Speaker 6: I don't think they'd have the lights on them the
Speaker 6: way they are. That's almost like an FAA requirement, because
Speaker 6: that is space is very congested to begin with. The okay,
Speaker 6: first were playing and then there was a guy earlier.
Speaker 6: All right, so if you look at how they're flying
Speaker 6: sort of or the reports, and you look at the lights,
Speaker 6: you would almost say that they were you know, government, so.
Speaker 2: Your own Okay, you're comfortable with the fact that they
Speaker 2: have lights, I mean, obviously they have lights.
Speaker 6: Go no, no, I'm not comfortable, but but I'm looking
Speaker 6: for clues because we're not getting any answers. So this
Speaker 6: is when the void comes in, you know, you know
Speaker 6: what I mean, you look at possibilities and running scenarios.
Speaker 6: You know, they say they're not a danger or problem,
Speaker 6: but they can't tell you what they are, so I
Speaker 6: don't know how they know that. So that's all BS.
Speaker 2: You look at the the all transparent that if they
Speaker 2: don't know what they are, which was what Kirby said,
Speaker 2: then it could be he said, we don't know what
Speaker 2: they are, but we don't think it's a foreign implement.
Speaker 6: The US government. The reason they're coming over, and that
Speaker 6: maybe the type that they the technology is. Unfortunately, they
Speaker 6: could be looking for a dirty bomb, something with plutonium.
Speaker 6: I don't know. He has to be concerning.
Speaker 2: Yeah, well you're bringing it back to the water, you
Speaker 2: know what. I don't think so, but but we'll see.
Speaker 2: I truly, I truly don't don't think that would be
Speaker 2: the situation. I really don't think so, to be honest
Speaker 2: with you, I hope not. I would think that if
Speaker 2: you were concerned about plutonium or something like, I don't know, Bill,
Speaker 2: you're taking me off in and never never Land, which.
Speaker 6: I'm just worry about my grade.
Speaker 2: What you're talking about. I don't know how you could first, Yeah, anyway,
Speaker 2: look interesting perspective, interesting perspective.
Speaker 6: I open up a question here, something wasn't how would
Speaker 6: you look for it? That would be the logical way
Speaker 6: to do it.
Speaker 2: I don't know that you'd be using drones, to be
Speaker 2: honest with you. I think I think you'd be more
Speaker 2: likely having people on the ground with Geiger counters or
Speaker 2: something like that. I don't know how it is.
Speaker 6: You know, well, I think with the technology, Bill, you
Speaker 6: know much.
Speaker 2: More about this than I do. Obviously our experience, No, no,
Speaker 2: your expertise is way is dwarf's mind.
Speaker 6: So they're all I'm just I'm putting out there. I've
Speaker 6: talked putting out there.
Speaker 8: Let's see it.
Speaker 2: Let's see if people react. Okay, simple as that. You're
Speaker 2: you're fairly comfortable with it, and I get it, and
Speaker 2: I appreciate you call.
Speaker 6: And I hope I hope I'm wrong. Dad, I hope
Speaker 6: I'm dead wrong.
Speaker 2: I hope you aren't too. Okay, thanks Bill? Uh. I
Speaker 2: don't know how Bill got to where that was, but
Speaker 2: I was trying to follow it, and I think at
Speaker 2: the end he's trying to tell me that people have
Speaker 2: come across the border with plutonium Okay, I guess that's
Speaker 2: a theory. I never thought of that. One six, one seven,
Speaker 2: two five, four ten thirty six one seven, nine three
Speaker 2: one ten thirty. My question and my concern is much more,
Speaker 2: why is our government not know what's going on? And
Speaker 2: if you're listening in New Jersey or sing in Pennsylvania,
Speaker 2: love to get some reaction from you out there. So, uh,
Speaker 2: that's this is the issue. If if you want to
Speaker 2: talk about it, great, If this is something that you
Speaker 2: are unaware of. I think the story has been around
Speaker 2: for some time. Uh, it was on several of the
Speaker 2: nightly newscasts. I assume my audience listens to nightly newscast
Speaker 2: I know, I know they do. I just love to
Speaker 2: know what you think. There was a little bit of
Speaker 2: wild speculation yesterday by a New Jersey congressman. I don't
Speaker 2: even want to go there with that because they didn't
Speaker 2: seem to be much basis in reality. But that's fine.
Speaker 2: I just would love to hear from you, and if
Speaker 2: this is something that interests you, light the lines up.
Speaker 2: And if it doesn't, we can we'll change subjects six
Speaker 2: one seven, four ten thirty, six one seven, nine thirty.
Speaker 2: As I've often said, talk radio is not a spectator sport.
Speaker 6: Uh.
Speaker 2: This is one that virtually any one of you might
Speaker 2: have a point of view, or a bill had a thought.
Speaker 2: I didn't quite follow it. Originally, I got it. Finally,
Speaker 2: I'm not necessarily buying it, but I'm glad that he
Speaker 2: had a chance to call and express himself. Let's go
Speaker 2: to Howard down on the South Shore. Howard, welcome, You're
Speaker 2: next on nightside. Okay. If Howard's not there, how is
Speaker 2: Howard there? Rob? You cleared him he was there? Okay, Well,
Speaker 2: if he's there, great. If he's not, we'll just move
Speaker 2: on and we're coming up on the eleven thirty newscast.
Speaker 2: If Howard isn't there, hopefully Howard's okay, and he hasn't
Speaker 2: done couldn't hear us? Okay, Howard, if you want to
Speaker 2: call back, we will try to get you in, that's
Speaker 2: for sure. So the issue is drones over New Jersey
Speaker 2: and once again governmental transparency. How can the government not
Speaker 2: know what this is? That's my question. How can the
Speaker 2: government not know what this is? It's been around for
Speaker 2: quite a while. They should have had every opportunity to
Speaker 2: investigate it. Uh, And and basically say Hey, Look, there's
Speaker 2: stuff and there's programs that go on that one part
Speaker 2: of the government might not know. I'm not I'm not
Speaker 2: assuming that everybody in every department and the government can
Speaker 2: give us an answer, but they should give us be
Speaker 2: able to give us a little bit more transparency. We'll
Speaker 2: take a break. We'll hit the news at the bottom
Speaker 2: of the hour. If you'd like to join the conversation,
Speaker 2: get it going great? Uh, If not, we can do
Speaker 2: something else. Six one seven, two thirty six, one seven,
Speaker 2: ninety of the numbers, coming right back on night Side.
Speaker 1: Night Side with Dan Ray on WBZ, Boston's news radio.
Speaker 2: Well, every once in a while, I pick a subject
Speaker 2: that no one's interested in. So I've just picked one,
Speaker 2: and no one wants to talk about the possibility of
Speaker 2: drones over in New Jersey. I have no idea what
Speaker 2: what news channels you folks are watching, but this story
Speaker 2: is all over a lot of news channels. So what
Speaker 2: I'm going to do is simply, I am more than
Speaker 2: happy to give up when my audience does not rise
Speaker 2: to an occasion. I think this is an incredibly important story,
Speaker 2: and I think that the whole question. You know, we've
Speaker 2: talked about UFOs for years and people say, oh, the UFOs,
Speaker 2: the government's hiding at Roswell, New Mexico, and all of
Speaker 2: those stories. This is one that I think actually has
Speaker 2: some substance to it. I don't know that these are UFOs.
Speaker 2: I don't think that we will be met by UFOs
Speaker 2: with a bunch of people coming in on drones. That's
Speaker 2: I don't envision that. But I do realize that the
Speaker 2: government has not answered questions, and it's been for weeks
Speaker 2: now that they have been bothered. There's no transparency. And
Speaker 2: if there's not transparency on something like this, which is
Speaker 2: as obvious, this is not someone saying to some government
Speaker 2: bureaucrat or apparachik Gi. There was a airline pilot who
Speaker 2: said they saw something really funny in the sky and
Speaker 2: they thought it might have been an identified flying object.
Speaker 2: Now these are drones that have been appearing in the
Speaker 2: night sky over New Jersey, Northern New Jersey, I guess
Speaker 2: other parts as well in Pennsylvania now for weeks weeks
Speaker 2: on end. It's not something that is being done clandestinely.
Speaker 2: Whoever's doing it, we don't know who's doing it. The
Speaker 2: government says they don't know who's doing it, which worries
Speaker 2: me a lot. To be really honest with you, but
Speaker 2: if this is not a subject that you folks have
Speaker 2: an interest in, although it's one that I am fascinated by,
Speaker 2: sometimes I just guess I am not on the same
Speaker 2: page as my audience. So therefore, whenever I find myself
Speaker 2: at a point where a subject is to me captivating,
Speaker 2: an interesting and important and serious I do what any
Speaker 2: good talk show host will do. I'm going to go
Speaker 2: open lines. Anything you want to talk about. Here's the
Speaker 2: number six one seven, two, five, four ten thirty six
Speaker 2: one seven, nine three one ten thirty. You can ask
Speaker 2: me any question you want. You can talk about any
Speaker 2: subject that is of interest to you. I am I
Speaker 2: am more than willing to to. When I know that
Speaker 2: I have not found something that piques your interest, then
Speaker 2: we're ready to move on. So all we got to
Speaker 2: do is open up the lines. Let's go full. Let's
Speaker 2: go full, open lines to the end of the hour,
Speaker 2: and I promise we'll have to pick some subjects tomorrow
Speaker 2: night that everybody's interested in. Six one seven, two, five,
Speaker 2: four ten thirty six one seven nine three one ten thirty.
Speaker 2: As we move towards the midnight hours. So let's let's
Speaker 2: get going here and see what people want to talk about.
Speaker 2: Let me go first to Bill in Amesbury. That didn't
Speaker 2: take long. Hey Bill, how are you tonight? Welcome?
Speaker 9: I'm doing fine, Thank you. I've thought about the drones
Speaker 9: and parking. Back to the Chinese weather balloon. Supposedly, one
Speaker 9: of the explanations that the government military whatever came up
Speaker 9: with about their reluctance to shoot the Chinese balloon weather
Speaker 9: so called weather balloon down quickly is they wanted to
Speaker 9: wait until it had flown over certain sites that the
Speaker 9: government thought were sensitive, and then they were and they
Speaker 9: wanted to give that balloon a chance, or that device
Speaker 9: a chance to acquire information, and they wanted and then
Speaker 9: they were going to shoot it down and see what
Speaker 9: kind of information it was capable of collecting. Okay, so
Speaker 9: maybe there's an analogy between that and these drones over
Speaker 9: New Jersey. I don't know.
Speaker 2: Well, I know I followed the theory. I will tell
Speaker 2: you that anything that that balloon, that so called weather balloon,
Speaker 2: remember that we watched for days traverse the United States.
Speaker 2: Whatever information they were able to garner with that weather balloon,
Speaker 2: it was immediately I'm sure sent back to China. Now,
Speaker 2: if you're saying that there would be some advantage, almost
Speaker 2: like in a football game, of knowing what plays the
Speaker 2: other team was going to run, that's fine. But you're
Speaker 2: saying that they they may have wanted to know what
Speaker 2: the capacity of the of that balloon was. Okay, I
Speaker 2: get that. Yeah, but here's the problem. You have these
Speaker 2: drones up there, if they are gathering information, I would
Speaker 2: feel a lot better if they'd taken a couple of
Speaker 2: two or three of them down. I mean, I have
Speaker 2: to assume that our military has the capacity to take
Speaker 2: those some of those drones down and find out. Okay,
Speaker 2: where are these contras rolled from? I assumed that electronically,
Speaker 2: and I'm not in the electronic expert that they should
Speaker 2: be able to figure out who's controlling these drones. This
Speaker 2: is not high school kids in Staten Island, I assume,
Speaker 2: but maybe they are. And the lack of transparency when
Speaker 2: the government tells me we don't know what they are,
Speaker 2: but we know they're not from a foreign government, that
Speaker 2: doesn't instill any confidence in me whatsoever. That's my problem.
Speaker 9: You have money from thought, which might be is not ocredible,
Speaker 9: but that's all I have to offer.
Speaker 2: No. No, Well, well, first of all, look, you at
Speaker 2: least took the time to offer a theory, and I
Speaker 2: appreciate it very much. Are you a regular caller? Have
Speaker 2: I had you on before?
Speaker 3: No?
Speaker 2: First time caller.
Speaker 9: Yeah.
Speaker 2: I want to give you wrong the cause you know,
Speaker 2: the fact that you had the courage to call, I
Speaker 2: appreciate it, and the fact that you were in something
Speaker 2: by it. You might turn out to be absolutely right,
Speaker 2: but we appreciate you taking the time to call Bill
Speaker 2: six one seven ten thirty, triple eight nine ten thirty
Speaker 2: or six one seven nine thirty, Gonna go next to again.
Speaker 2: We're doing open lines here as well as the balloon
Speaker 2: going to Viney in Boston. In East Boston, Vinnie next
Speaker 2: on nightside.
Speaker 8: N You don't remember, but I remember, of course, the
Speaker 8: helicopters full low Overies Boston helicopters. I don't know if
Speaker 8: there were state police or federal government helicopters. They were
Speaker 8: looking faradar. They flew very low and scared everyone right
Speaker 8: over the houses, and they were looking a farade on
Speaker 8: or some kind of chemical in East Boston.
Speaker 2: Well, you know, Raydon something, Raydon is something that I
Speaker 2: know a little bit about Raydon is a naturally admitting
Speaker 2: uh chemical that comes from rock formations. I'm sure.
Speaker 8: So they were looking for something chemical that could have
Speaker 8: been in East Boston, and they flew very low over
Speaker 8: the houses, scaring everyone.
Speaker 2: How long ago was this? How long ago?
Speaker 8: Can I say? Two years ago?
Speaker 2: Okay? Uh? And did they ever disclose?
Speaker 8: Yeah, they said it was The people were scarce, so
Speaker 8: they said it was a government looking or state police
Speaker 8: or federal police looking for a chemic goals Boston.
Speaker 2: But did they the reason? I asked if they identified it?
Speaker 2: You said that you thought it was radarn.
Speaker 8: Well, no, it was some kind of chemicals. And I
Speaker 8: told the guy that at the East Boston Yam said
Speaker 8: it was a very spot man and he said they
Speaker 8: were looking for a news boss And I said, yeah.
Speaker 8: She says, I can't believe it. But when we contests,
Speaker 8: I got my whether it's a Trump administration one, it
Speaker 8: was the bider the administration. You just can't trust your government.
Speaker 2: Well, let me tell you something. You may see a
Speaker 2: level of transparency in the Trump administration they were never
Speaker 2: seen before. He made a number of promises. He said
Speaker 2: that he would release the JFK assassination files. I suspected
Speaker 2: that Bobby Kennedy Junior will probably be interested in seeing
Speaker 2: those released. Donald Trump has said he will, he will
Speaker 2: release to the best of his ability. Uh, some of
Speaker 2: the UFO files. The Biden administration has had four years.
Speaker 2: They had four years in which they could have done
Speaker 2: a lot. Let's see, let's give Donald Trump a second
Speaker 2: time a chance. Maybe he's got it figured out the
Speaker 2: second the second time around. I don't know. I will
Speaker 2: criticize them if they if they're not transparent, because, uh,
Speaker 2: that was one of the great failings of the Biden administration. Transparency.
Speaker 2: They they never wanted to tell us what really happened
Speaker 2: in Kabul when thirteen US military personnel died or killed
Speaker 2: by that bomber. There's there's some suggestion that we had
Speaker 2: snipers who had that bomber in their sights. They could
Speaker 2: have taken that bomber out at any time.
Speaker 8: I mean, we're hiding something. If they don't want to
Speaker 8: talk about it, they're hiding something.
Speaker 2: Well, if they're hiding something that normally when you hide something,
Speaker 2: no one knows about it. And for them to have
Speaker 2: run it this way and to have, in my opinion,
Speaker 2: allowed the cat out of the bag. I mean people
Speaker 2: have seen it. We've seen the you've seen the videos, right,
Speaker 2: Uh yeah, tell us, Look, they work for us, we
Speaker 2: don't work for them, simple as that.
Speaker 8: I don't think nobody knows that. I think they think
Speaker 8: there your boss, you pay them, But there your boss.
Speaker 2: That doesn't work away in my world and it never will. Vinnie.
Speaker 2: I appreciate your call, and we should call more often.
Speaker 2: Thank you, my friend.

Speaker 2: come back from January sixth of two thousand and set
Speaker 2: of two thousand and seventeen, and excuse me, twenty twenty
Speaker 2: twenty twenty one, which was a disgraceful day in America,
Speaker 2: and to be elected president. This was the second time
Speaker 2: he was elected as the person of the year goes back.
Speaker 2: I guess the first one was Charles Lindberg in nineteen
Speaker 2: twenty seven. You know, when you it's an amazing list
Speaker 2: of people. The Queen of England, Winston Churchill Zelenski, was
Speaker 2: elected in twenty twenty two. I'm trying to see if
Speaker 2: I can find who it was last year. I'm just
Speaker 2: scanning here and I pulled up the wrong. Trump was
Speaker 2: twenty sixteen in twenty twenty, Joe Biden was twenty twenty,
Speaker 2: Barack Obama was. It seems like the presidents of the
Speaker 2: United States. I'm not able to see who it was
Speaker 2: in twenty twenty three. Maybe someone can call and let
Speaker 2: me know here. But the list that I have doesn't
Speaker 2: have twenty twenty three included, which I don't understand. Well,
Speaker 2: maybe let me see. No, I mean all people, Richard Nixon,
Speaker 2: Henry Kissinger, Ronald Reagan, a lot of politicians, a lot
Speaker 2: of politicians over time. But that's the big one. Alex.

Speaker 2: I was talking with a friend of mine in Canada
Speaker 2: today and she was laughing about the fact that Donald Trump.
Speaker 2: When Trudeau, the Prime Minister of Canada, went to mar
Speaker 2: A Lago shortly after President like Trump won the twenty
Speaker 2: twenty four election, President elect Trump referred to Prime Minister
Speaker 2: Tureau as the governor of the fifty first state twice.

Speaker 2: in Canada. They're not going to see it until March.
Speaker 2: If you have any friends in Canada, they caught mail
Speaker 2: Christmas cards. So they've had a strike in Canada now,
Speaker 2: a mail strike for like, it's going to cripple their economy.
Speaker 2: When you think about it, you can't get your bills.
Speaker 2: But a lot of people.
Speaker 7: Get let's let's broach the subject and look at the
Speaker 7: immense magnetification of the Americas. I want to, I want to.
Speaker 7: I want to be a certain we want to start
Speaker 7: thinking in the thirty first century, thinking where's society going
Speaker 7: to be in a thousand years. That's our responsibility today.
Speaker 2: The week where I'm going to be tomorrow. Jack, you're
Speaker 2: pressing me here.
Speaker 7: Man, It's just man, Man, it's not about us. It's

Speaker 7: It's it needs we need. We need greatness.
Speaker 2: Because we are so a thousand years from now that
Speaker 2: will be about forty generations forward. Will you give a
Speaker 2: generation every twenty five years? You know?
Speaker 7: Okay?
Speaker 2: Jack, you may have given me an idea for a

Speaker 2: Let me go next to Dan and Hanson. Dan, you
Speaker 2: were next on NIGHTSAG go right ahead, Hi, Dan, I.
Speaker 3: Had I wanted Tom very interested in the drones too,
Speaker 3: But when you brought up the Man at the Air,
Speaker 3: I just thought only fair. I had to call in
Speaker 3: and say, nineteen thirty eight Time Magazines man of the
Speaker 3: Air at all hit Yeah.
Speaker 2: Sure, yeah. I wish you'd called it. I wish you
Speaker 2: had called in about drones. I thought the drones was
Speaker 2: a great topic. To be really honest with you, it is.
Speaker 3: You know, I'm.
Speaker 2: Very disappointed that people didn't rise to that because you
Speaker 2: talk about UFOs, which I what whatever. You know, I'm
Speaker 2: a little frustrated, I guess to be honest with you,
Speaker 2: and I'll probably express some of that frustration when I
Speaker 2: do nightside postgame tonight on Facebook. If anybody's interested in
Speaker 2: hearing what I really feel.
Speaker 3: Why, I feel the same the same way. I want
Speaker 3: to believe that they are ours and they're just not
Speaker 3: telling us that there are.
Speaker 2: Well, if they are ours and they know it, and
Speaker 2: they're not telling us, they're lying to us because they're
Speaker 2: saying they don't know if they're not ours, and they
Speaker 2: don't know, and that's the truth. That's even more scary
Speaker 2: because it's like, who are they and what are they doing?
Speaker 2: They absolutely so either way, I think we're in we're
Speaker 2: in some trouble on this, and I just don't. I mean,
Speaker 2: we live in this great democracy, and why are we
Speaker 2: why are we covering things up on something like this?
Speaker 2: What are they? Let's find out or at least find
Speaker 2: scramble up, scramble some jets up there and take some
Speaker 2: of them down. That's all.
Speaker 3: Absolutely, absolutely bet you.
Speaker 2: I will bet you that once Donald Trump is sworn in,
Speaker 2: the drones will disappear. Oh god, well, I'm telling you,
Speaker 2: and I think because Trump will probably shoot them down.
Speaker 7: That's what I'm thinking.
Speaker 3: Thanks, did now hold on one more?
Speaker 2: I got thirty seconds left. I'm sorry we're out of time, buddy.
Speaker 2: I really apologize, but I wish it called earlier.
Speaker 3: To thank you very much.
