1
00:00:01,679 --> 00:00:07,919
Speaker 1: The paranormal, zifos, monsters, mysteries. As you're listening to Talking

2
00:00:08,199 --> 00:00:12,400
Weird and Know from a Kevin deep in the northwards,

3
00:00:12,880 --> 00:01:10,120
your host, Doctor Dean Bertram.

4
00:00:42,479 --> 00:00:46,000
Speaker 2: Greetings, are my fellow weirdos and weird ads. Welcome to

5
00:00:46,200 --> 00:00:49,679
Talking Weird on the Untold Radio Network. I'm your host,

6
00:00:49,799 --> 00:00:52,960
Dean Bertram, And wherever you are on this weird planet,

7
00:00:53,000 --> 00:00:55,640
whatever time zone, whether you're watching live or watching one

8
00:00:55,679 --> 00:00:59,200
of the the archive shows after the fact, I'm grateful

9
00:00:59,200 --> 00:01:01,920
to have you here for the next hour or so

10
00:01:02,240 --> 00:01:04,239
of your life. Thank you for joining me tonight. It's

11
00:01:04,239 --> 00:01:06,680
going to be a great show. I just literally got

12
00:01:06,680 --> 00:01:09,120
home a couple hours ago from seeing the new Spielberg

13
00:01:09,200 --> 00:01:13,959
movie Disclosure Day, which has obviously been talked about and

14
00:01:14,000 --> 00:01:18,079
anticipated highly in the UFO community since it was announced,

15
00:01:18,760 --> 00:01:24,599
particularly given those ongoing I suppose trends within you know,

16
00:01:25,359 --> 00:01:30,359
the media cycle and US government hearings and releases by

17
00:01:30,480 --> 00:01:33,840
the Trump administration of old UFO documents. It seems to

18
00:01:33,840 --> 00:01:36,799
be a very timely movie and I'll be getting into

19
00:01:36,840 --> 00:01:39,840
it some length with my guest tonight. There might be spoilers.

20
00:01:39,879 --> 00:01:41,719
As a warning, I know my guest doesn't want to

21
00:01:41,760 --> 00:01:44,000
do spoilers. I'm not going to make him, but I

22
00:01:44,000 --> 00:01:46,439
probably won't be able to help myself. So if you

23
00:01:46,480 --> 00:01:48,159
want to come back and watch this after you've seen

24
00:01:48,200 --> 00:01:50,959
the movie, feel free, or maybe you'll listen to this

25
00:01:51,000 --> 00:01:52,560
and we'll make you want to see the movie less

26
00:01:52,719 --> 00:01:56,000
or maybe more. So, maybe it's worth listening to some

27
00:01:56,120 --> 00:01:58,920
of what we have to say before you go into

28
00:01:59,079 --> 00:02:02,040
the cinema to see Disclosure. Dave, you're planning to anyway.

29
00:02:02,040 --> 00:02:05,879
Tonight's guest is a renowned jazz musician and paranormal investigator,

30
00:02:05,920 --> 00:02:08,599
and for over thirty years he has led the acclaimed

31
00:02:08,840 --> 00:02:13,280

32
00:02:13,319 --> 00:02:16,879
House and the Kennedy Center and captivating audiences with his

33
00:02:16,960 --> 00:02:20,439
innovative jazz compositions. Beyond music, he's made a name for

34
00:02:20,520 --> 00:02:22,479
himself in the world of the paranormal with his hit

35
00:02:22,560 --> 00:02:26,919
TV series, Eric Mintel investigates exploring phenomenon from ghosts and

36
00:02:27,039 --> 00:02:30,759
UFOs to bigfoot and dog man sidings. His dual careers

37
00:02:30,840 --> 00:02:35,599
highlight his diverse talents and insatiable curiosity. So I'm delighted

38
00:02:35,599 --> 00:02:37,840

39
00:02:38,080 --> 00:02:42,039
and the incredibly talented human being that is the one,

40
00:02:42,319 --> 00:02:48,719
the only Eric Mintel like go Et and Et. It's

41
00:02:48,759 --> 00:02:51,680
perfect tonight. Their background. By the way, your sidekick.

42
00:02:53,159 --> 00:02:54,919
Speaker 3: How you doing, man, it's so good to see you

43
00:02:55,680 --> 00:02:56,400
in a minute.

44
00:02:56,759 --> 00:02:58,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's been too long. I mean to be honest,

45
00:02:58,560 --> 00:03:00,560
it's probably only been six months, but that's still way

46
00:03:00,599 --> 00:03:02,960
too long, way too long, way too long.

47
00:03:03,000 --> 00:03:03,120
Speaker 1: Man.

48
00:03:03,280 --> 00:03:05,800
Speaker 3: Always it's always a pleasure to talk with you. I

49
00:03:05,800 --> 00:03:09,479
always love what you're doing. You've always got something going on,

50
00:03:09,759 --> 00:03:13,039
and I just love being surrounded by like minded people.

51
00:03:13,680 --> 00:03:16,479
And oh yeah, we're gonna have a good time tonight

52
00:03:16,479 --> 00:03:17,919
because there was a lot to talk about.

53
00:03:18,199 --> 00:03:20,719
Speaker 2: There really is. And I watched some of your more

54
00:03:20,759 --> 00:03:23,360
recent Eric mi Intel investigates the videos the other day

55
00:03:23,400 --> 00:03:25,199
with my daughter. She loved them as well, because she's

56
00:03:25,240 --> 00:03:27,520
in the weird. We'll get to some of that later.

57
00:03:27,560 --> 00:03:29,280
We'll talk about some of the things that you've been

58
00:03:29,360 --> 00:03:32,560
up to, because some of them involve fascinating UFO investigations,

59
00:03:32,560 --> 00:03:38,599
which is as timely as the Spielberg movie is. I

60
00:03:38,680 --> 00:03:41,680
just saw Disclosure Day with my daughter this afternoon. I

61
00:03:41,800 --> 00:03:43,520
literally have only been home a couple of hours.

62
00:03:43,599 --> 00:03:44,680
Speaker 3: Oh my god, what you saw?

63
00:03:44,719 --> 00:03:45,520
Speaker 2: A couple of days ago.

64
00:03:46,120 --> 00:03:48,639
Speaker 3: I saw a couple of days ago. What are your thoughts?

65
00:03:49,039 --> 00:03:51,240
What are some of your thoughts right after that, you

66
00:03:51,280 --> 00:03:53,080
know what, fresh right out of the theater.

67
00:03:54,560 --> 00:03:56,599
Speaker 2: I know you're gonna have I think, because you're a

68
00:03:56,680 --> 00:03:58,599
much more positive human being than I am. I think

69
00:03:58,599 --> 00:04:01,719
you're gonna have a more positive intern pretation of the movie.

70
00:04:02,280 --> 00:04:04,199
Speaker 3: Dean. I'll tell you, I don't know. I think you

71
00:04:04,240 --> 00:04:05,879
and I might be on the same page.

72
00:04:05,639 --> 00:04:09,240
Speaker 2: Here, Okay, before we get into the meat of the sandwich,

73
00:04:09,280 --> 00:04:11,520
which is the disclosure and is it a sy of

74
00:04:11,680 --> 00:04:13,680
and is it releasing everything? And these are the kind

75
00:04:13,719 --> 00:04:17,040
of things that the UFO community talk about. I was underwhelmed,

76
00:04:17,120 --> 00:04:19,040
to be honest, I'm a big Spielberg fan. I'm a

77
00:04:19,120 --> 00:04:21,000
kid of the seventies and eighties. I grew up on

78
00:04:21,079 --> 00:04:23,600
films like Jaws and Raiders of the Lost Ark, and

79
00:04:23,600 --> 00:04:27,000
of course Close Encounters et that you have behind you,

80
00:04:27,040 --> 00:04:29,800
and Close Encounters are the third kind. I think remains

81
00:04:30,360 --> 00:04:34,120
arguably the greatest UFO movie ever made. It's an incredible film,

82
00:04:34,240 --> 00:04:39,160
yep as is et They certainly, particularly Close Encounters, it

83
00:04:39,240 --> 00:04:41,839
almost seemed like you were seeing something which was I

84
00:04:41,879 --> 00:04:44,879
don't know, revolutionary and there was revelation in there, and

85
00:04:44,920 --> 00:04:47,800
there was something just incredibly magical about it. Even though

86
00:04:47,839 --> 00:04:51,519
as I matured in my views on UFOs, I always

87
00:04:51,519 --> 00:04:54,079
thought Spielberg went for the easy out and the final

88
00:04:54,160 --> 00:04:56,920
act making it so literal, which is something I know

89
00:04:57,040 --> 00:04:59,839
Jacques flat complained about, who was actually a consultant on

90
00:04:59,879 --> 00:05:03,079
that along with his friend Jayleen Heidek. But this movie,

91
00:05:03,120 --> 00:05:06,079
to me, to be honest, it felt old and tired.

92
00:05:06,160 --> 00:05:08,839
It felt like this is The X Files with a

93
00:05:08,879 --> 00:05:14,120
happier ending and without you know, as clever minutia dealings

94
00:05:14,160 --> 00:05:17,040
with how the conspiracy operates. It just it just seemed

95
00:05:17,399 --> 00:05:20,079
a disnified version of The X Files that might have

96
00:05:20,160 --> 00:05:23,199
felt fresh in the mid nineties and now just felt

97
00:05:23,279 --> 00:05:26,800
like tired. Now. Obviously it had the whole disclosure thing

98
00:05:26,839 --> 00:05:29,879
attached to it, But if it didn't have that term

99
00:05:29,920 --> 00:05:31,279
and that it could have been a film that was

100
00:05:31,319 --> 00:05:33,600
made in nineteen ninety six, to be honest, and it

101
00:05:33,600 --> 00:05:35,040
would have felt it would have felt fresher.

102
00:05:35,040 --> 00:05:38,920
Speaker 3: Then Yeah, no, I agree. I you know, some parts

103
00:05:38,959 --> 00:05:41,439
of it were you know, it's Spielberg, of course, you know,

104
00:05:41,519 --> 00:05:44,759
it's like it's definitely a Spielberg movie. Some parts of

105
00:05:44,800 --> 00:05:50,199
it were incredible. Other parts just left your flat and

106
00:05:50,279 --> 00:05:53,120
I was a little I mean, I was excited, but

107
00:05:53,199 --> 00:05:56,000
I was a little disappointed at the same time. So,

108
00:05:56,439 --> 00:05:58,920
you know, and I think, you know, here's the thing, though,

109
00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:01,319
I think it was, you know, all the disclosure that's

110
00:06:01,360 --> 00:06:04,800
going on now that we're seeing and that that's coming

111
00:06:04,839 --> 00:06:08,319
out really wasn't anything new in there. I mean, it's

112
00:06:08,360 --> 00:06:10,920
really kind of like regurgitated stuff that we've already seen.

113
00:06:11,240 --> 00:06:14,920
Speaker 2: Totally agree. Yeah, I think Spielberg dropped the ball on

114
00:06:14,959 --> 00:06:17,399
the whole movie the same way he dropped the ball

115
00:06:17,879 --> 00:06:21,000
of the ending of Close Encounters having to literalize it

116
00:06:21,040 --> 00:06:23,160
so much. One of the things that has excited me

117
00:06:23,240 --> 00:06:27,199
about disclosure, and much of the disclosure conversation doesn't excite me,

118
00:06:27,560 --> 00:06:30,319
but one of the things that has decided excited me

119
00:06:30,480 --> 00:06:33,319
is that multiple people who have been front and center

120
00:06:33,360 --> 00:06:36,079
in the disclosure movement, I don't agree with all of them.

121
00:06:36,120 --> 00:06:37,720
That said, I don't agree with a lot of them,

122
00:06:37,759 --> 00:06:41,240
but a constant theme which the media hasn't really picked

123
00:06:41,319 --> 00:06:44,720
up on, but everybody from like Tom DeLong, the head

124
00:06:44,759 --> 00:06:46,759
of to the Stars Academy and you know, the head

125
00:06:46,759 --> 00:06:49,319
of you know, Blink one eight two and Angels and

126
00:06:49,319 --> 00:06:52,399
Wear Airwaves, two bands I love to David Grush himself

127
00:06:52,439 --> 00:06:54,959
through Leslie Keane, the author of the co author of

128
00:06:54,959 --> 00:06:57,199
the New York Times article in twenty seventeen, which kind

129
00:06:57,199 --> 00:07:00,319
of blew this all open to other media commentators like

130
00:07:00,360 --> 00:07:05,399
Tucker Carlson, through people like through people who were you know,

131
00:07:06,160 --> 00:07:10,439
I suppose just people generally who are thought to be

132
00:07:10,639 --> 00:07:13,279
in the no like hal Putov would be another example,

133
00:07:13,279 --> 00:07:14,800
and there are plenty of them. I could just go

134
00:07:14,920 --> 00:07:17,319
on and on and on, but there's been this kind

135
00:07:17,319 --> 00:07:22,040
of theme in the conversation that whatever this is an

136
00:07:22,079 --> 00:07:25,639
extraterrestrial Some people say, I mean Jade Vance, the Vice president, said,

137
00:07:25,639 --> 00:07:27,720
this seems more like demonic to me. And whether you

138
00:07:27,720 --> 00:07:31,959
say demonic or spiritual or interdimensional, we're all talking about

139
00:07:32,079 --> 00:07:34,160
kind of the same thing. That this isn't just as

140
00:07:34,199 --> 00:07:36,959
simple as you know, little green or gray men in

141
00:07:37,040 --> 00:07:39,720
tin cans visiting us from out of space. There's something

142
00:07:39,800 --> 00:07:41,959
much weirder going on, and that seems to have been

143
00:07:41,959 --> 00:07:45,879
an undercurrent in many of the conversations around disclosure. But

144
00:07:45,920 --> 00:07:48,439
Spielberg takes us right back to, you know again, to

145
00:07:48,480 --> 00:07:51,160
the X Files, where it's all extraterrestrial where it's all

146
00:07:51,639 --> 00:07:54,800
the tried and true narrative of you know, and this

147
00:07:54,839 --> 00:07:57,360
isn't a spoiler for anybody if you've watched the trailer

148
00:07:57,519 --> 00:07:59,560
where it all goes back to the forty seven or

149
00:07:59,600 --> 00:08:02,199
as well thing where it's all the alien abductions, or

150
00:08:02,360 --> 00:08:05,079
you know, a central part of the story and the

151
00:08:05,120 --> 00:08:07,759
wicked government or in this case, kind of a military

152
00:08:07,800 --> 00:08:12,680
industrial as corporation I guess keeps the secrets and it

153
00:08:12,800 --> 00:08:16,120
just it didn't it didn't engage with what I think

154
00:08:16,160 --> 00:08:19,000
are the more interesting things about disclosure and the idea

155
00:08:19,040 --> 00:08:21,240
at the end too. If this military industrial you know,

156
00:08:21,360 --> 00:08:25,560
private sector part of the of the government, it has

157
00:08:25,600 --> 00:08:28,639
spent the whole spent since forty seven, you know, keeping

158
00:08:28,680 --> 00:08:30,680
this under wraps, or since I think they kind of

159
00:08:30,680 --> 00:08:32,840
suggest to get in the seventy something happened and this

160
00:08:33,000 --> 00:08:37,000
kind of organization took off more from them. But whatever then,

161
00:08:37,360 --> 00:08:39,039
and this is a bit of a spoiler, but there's

162
00:08:39,080 --> 00:08:41,919
the sense that somehow the media are going to be

163
00:08:41,960 --> 00:08:43,919
the good guys in the end. But the media are

164
00:08:43,960 --> 00:08:47,879
owned by the same you know corporations that owned the

165
00:08:48,399 --> 00:08:54,360
military industrial you know, private contractor type people. All these

166
00:08:54,399 --> 00:08:56,879
big corporations. If there is a villain, they could very

167
00:08:56,879 --> 00:08:59,120
well be them, but to kind of segment it. And

168
00:08:59,200 --> 00:09:01,559
even at the end, the Middle Tree Industrial Complex people

169
00:09:01,720 --> 00:09:05,519
are kind of nice too, and it's like just to anyway,

170
00:09:05,919 --> 00:09:07,919
so many problems. I don't even know what. I didn't

171
00:09:07,919 --> 00:09:08,600
even know where to go.

172
00:09:08,960 --> 00:09:11,879
Speaker 3: Yeah, there's a lot of a lot of plot holes

173
00:09:11,960 --> 00:09:15,120
in it, and just you know, look, you know, I

174
00:09:15,159 --> 00:09:17,799
love Spielberg. Let's not let's go let's go back to

175
00:09:17,840 --> 00:09:22,639
this Close Encounters. Phenomenal movie. I mean, just really incredible,

176
00:09:22,639 --> 00:09:25,600
and at the end of that movie, just the wonder

177
00:09:25,759 --> 00:09:29,360
of like, you know, here's Roy Roy Neary played by

178
00:09:29,399 --> 00:09:33,240
Richard Drives, who was being called to this to this area, right,

179
00:09:33,799 --> 00:09:38,440
so and that was really cool, this particular one, I think,

180
00:09:38,519 --> 00:09:40,720
you know, it's it was again showing some of the

181
00:09:40,759 --> 00:09:44,320
stuff that we've already seen in the news, and uh,

182
00:09:44,360 --> 00:09:47,240
and just some of the stuff that they didn't you know,

183
00:09:47,320 --> 00:09:49,679
the thing is they didn't address any of like the

184
00:09:49,840 --> 00:09:53,720
underwater stuff that's been going the and just the two

185
00:09:53,759 --> 00:09:58,279
people that were abducted. There's been hundreds and I mean

186
00:09:58,320 --> 00:10:00,639
it's like over the or the over the course of

187
00:10:00,679 --> 00:10:03,879
this of these seventy years I mean we go right Beck,

188
00:10:03,919 --> 00:10:07,919
Betty and Barney Hill, Travis Walton, all these stories. Nothing

189
00:10:08,000 --> 00:10:13,120
like that was addressed. So the movie, for an entertainment standpoint, great,

190
00:10:13,240 --> 00:10:16,240
It was great, but it did leave me kind of

191
00:10:16,679 --> 00:10:19,120
at the you know, at the end. And again, people

192
00:10:19,159 --> 00:10:21,000
are gonna look at this and you know, some people

193
00:10:21,000 --> 00:10:23,320
love it, some people are gonna be like, you know,

194
00:10:23,679 --> 00:10:26,320
they're gonna be disappointed. But here's the thing too, I

195
00:10:26,360 --> 00:10:28,759
think we're looking at it and trying to get some

196
00:10:28,799 --> 00:10:32,840
answers and thinking that Spielberg has the answer. He doesn't

197
00:10:32,840 --> 00:10:35,960
know any more than anybody else. He's a filmmaker, you know.

198
00:10:36,000 --> 00:10:38,080
And they're also they're saying stuff like, oh, was he

199
00:10:38,200 --> 00:10:40,799
privy to all this knowledge? And I don't think so.

200
00:10:41,000 --> 00:10:43,519
I mean, he's a filmmaker. He even said himself he's

201
00:10:43,559 --> 00:10:46,519
never had a sighting, so you know, I mean, and

202
00:10:46,559 --> 00:10:48,960
he wants to. But the one thing with Spielberg and

203
00:10:49,000 --> 00:10:52,240
that that I love and that's awesome, is he got

204
00:10:52,480 --> 00:10:55,000
we're talking about it right now here we are, we're

205
00:10:55,039 --> 00:10:57,799
talking about it, We're talking about what it could mean,

206
00:10:57,919 --> 00:11:00,559
what was this about. So at least he's got people talking.

207
00:11:00,639 --> 00:11:04,240
And before that, though, the government coming out and saying, hey, folks,

208
00:11:04,279 --> 00:11:06,759
the UFOs you're seeing are real, we just don't know

209
00:11:06,759 --> 00:11:09,759
what they are. At least it's a conversation that got started,

210
00:11:10,279 --> 00:11:11,919
you know. And I got to tell you, Dean, a

211
00:11:11,960 --> 00:11:14,120
lot of the stuff that they have been releasing though,

212
00:11:14,399 --> 00:11:17,759
I mean, I've gotten better video from my witnesses exactly,

213
00:11:17,799 --> 00:11:19,600
you know. I mean it's like and then some of

214
00:11:19,639 --> 00:11:22,639
the stuff is misinterpreted, like there was an eight point

215
00:11:22,759 --> 00:11:25,279
star that was going around saying that, oh, this is

216
00:11:25,320 --> 00:11:28,360
the next biblical thing, like this is what Ezekiel saw,

217
00:11:28,519 --> 00:11:30,919
but what they didn't realize it was actually a military

218
00:11:31,000 --> 00:11:34,600
flare on a parachute. And it's so you've got to

219
00:11:34,600 --> 00:11:37,480
look at these things, you know, objectively, as we do.

220
00:11:37,559 --> 00:11:39,919
You know, we and you and I are both in

221
00:11:39,960 --> 00:11:42,879
that mindset of like, look, what is really going on here,

222
00:11:42,960 --> 00:11:45,039
you know, before we say, oh, it's got to be

223
00:11:45,080 --> 00:11:48,519
definitive proof, you know. So I think that that's the

224
00:11:48,559 --> 00:11:50,279
one thing. But the one thing that we are doing

225
00:11:50,720 --> 00:11:53,200
is talking about it. So that's a good thing. At

226
00:11:53,279 --> 00:11:55,679
least people are looking and they're they're going from looking

227
00:11:55,720 --> 00:11:58,039
at their cell phones, you know, to looking up now,

228
00:11:58,279 --> 00:12:00,559
you know, because there is a lot lot of stuff

229
00:12:00,600 --> 00:12:03,080
going on. I will say that we've been getting a

230
00:12:03,120 --> 00:12:05,879
lot of reports from people that are seeing crazy stuff,

231
00:12:06,200 --> 00:12:09,120
getting video of these crazy things. The one thing that

232
00:12:09,240 --> 00:12:12,600
has been coming out which I find really interesting is

233
00:12:12,679 --> 00:12:15,840
when these whistleblowers are coming out. It's great that they've

234
00:12:15,840 --> 00:12:19,919
got their stories, but again it's a story where's the evidence, Like,

235
00:12:20,000 --> 00:12:23,080
where's the stuff? But I do like the fact that

236
00:12:23,080 --> 00:12:29,120
they're talking about these plasmoid life forms, right so, and

237
00:12:29,159 --> 00:12:32,000
the orbs that people are seeing, and I've had my

238
00:12:32,039 --> 00:12:34,960
own encounter with those things, and so I think that's

239
00:12:34,960 --> 00:12:37,240
something that we need to look at a little bit

240
00:12:37,240 --> 00:12:39,519
more and look into a little bit more because I've

241
00:12:39,559 --> 00:12:41,679
gotten a lot of reports from people and you've seen

242
00:12:42,000 --> 00:12:44,759
a lot of those orbs and videos that are they're

243
00:12:44,879 --> 00:12:48,360
being seen and then they're disappearing. What is that? Is

244
00:12:48,360 --> 00:12:51,799
it an inter dimensional thing? You know that now they're

245
00:12:51,799 --> 00:12:55,000
saying that these things have wings, and so it's just

246
00:12:55,440 --> 00:12:57,559
that part of it's all very fascinating to me.

247
00:12:57,960 --> 00:13:01,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's interesting you brought up the plasm there was

248
00:13:02,360 --> 00:13:04,840
in the recent press conference at the Capitol steps or

249
00:13:04,879 --> 00:13:07,679
wherever the devil they were, and Grush comes out again.

250
00:13:07,759 --> 00:13:09,879
It's the first time we've really seen him front and

251
00:13:09,960 --> 00:13:13,679
center since the interviews News Nation did and the actual

252
00:13:14,440 --> 00:13:19,840
the congressional hearings a year or so ago. But some

253
00:13:19,919 --> 00:13:23,200
of the claims just seemed like literally out of bad

254
00:13:23,320 --> 00:13:27,080
UFO literature of the nineteen nineties, Like the US government

255
00:13:27,080 --> 00:13:30,200
are aware of several different species interacting with us, from

256
00:13:30,399 --> 00:13:34,639
what was it bipedal corporeal beings to plasmoidal entities. Now

257
00:13:34,919 --> 00:13:38,120
that's a big nutty claim to make unless you're going

258
00:13:38,200 --> 00:13:40,519
to be because it literally sounds like some of the

259
00:13:40,559 --> 00:13:44,039
bad sci fi euphology of the nineties where people were saying, well,

260
00:13:44,039 --> 00:13:46,399
there's then audics and the insectoids and this and then that,

261
00:13:46,639 --> 00:13:49,759
and it just seems so overinflated for startus, how do

262
00:13:49,799 --> 00:13:52,559
you know any of this? So I often can't help

263
00:13:52,600 --> 00:13:56,440
but wonder if the people in positions of power, or

264
00:13:56,480 --> 00:13:58,759
the people in these positions it might even be as

265
00:13:58,840 --> 00:14:01,240
dreadful a conspiracy as everybody thinks. It might be a

266
00:14:01,240 --> 00:14:06,159
conspiracy of belief, because people in government aren't aren't immune

267
00:14:06,159 --> 00:14:08,639
from having a belief system. And if you're somebody who's

268
00:14:08,679 --> 00:14:12,200
in government and read all the UFO literature, then you

269
00:14:12,200 --> 00:14:14,519
yourself become certain if you're reading that stuff. Oh, there,

270
00:14:14,519 --> 00:14:18,600
there are lots of these different beings, but I find

271
00:14:18,639 --> 00:14:21,720
it difficult to believe the US government has in some

272
00:14:21,840 --> 00:14:25,080
you know, I don't know, underground based somewhere several different

273
00:14:25,120 --> 00:14:28,919
dead alien beings that they're all studying, and that's something disclosure.

274
00:14:28,960 --> 00:14:30,519
They did it too, just quickly and then I'll throw

275
00:14:30,519 --> 00:14:32,919
it back to you, which was super kind of irritating.

276
00:14:34,000 --> 00:14:37,399
They vaguely start to talk about. One of the female

277
00:14:37,480 --> 00:14:40,840
characters is worried that this is going to destroy people's faith,

278
00:14:40,919 --> 00:14:44,080
and all she's seen is videos from her boyfriend who's

279
00:14:44,080 --> 00:14:45,840
stolen all of this. And this is spoilersus to people.

280
00:14:45,879 --> 00:14:47,360
Turn it off if you don't want to hear. He's

281
00:14:47,360 --> 00:14:49,799
stolen all of these videos. And essentially this is the

282
00:14:49,799 --> 00:14:51,919
whole plot of the movie, Like they're trying to, you know,

283
00:14:52,679 --> 00:14:56,559
initiate disclosure, and he has videos he shows of Essentially

284
00:14:57,080 --> 00:14:59,679
we see more of it later. In fact, it's my

285
00:14:59,720 --> 00:15:02,120
favorite part of the movie where Nixon takes Jackie Gleeson

286
00:15:02,159 --> 00:15:03,840
in to see the dead alien bodies, which has been

287
00:15:03,879 --> 00:15:06,919
a europhological myth since the seventies. But he shows her this,

288
00:15:07,039 --> 00:15:09,200
so they've got the dead alien bodies. Nixon sees them,

289
00:15:09,440 --> 00:15:12,320
and then there's footage of an alien being kind of

290
00:15:12,360 --> 00:15:15,759
autopsied but it's still alive or medically procedure, and it's screaming.

291
00:15:15,799 --> 00:15:18,799
And then she's like, this will destroy everybody's faith. Did

292
00:15:18,799 --> 00:15:21,200
they see this? They'll think of these as divine beings.

293
00:15:21,200 --> 00:15:23,360
And I'm thinking what I just saw would make me

294
00:15:23,360 --> 00:15:26,080
think they were incapable beings because they're crashing sauces all

295
00:15:26,080 --> 00:15:27,919
over the place. We've got all these dead bodies, we're

296
00:15:27,960 --> 00:15:30,519
torturing in the laboratories. It's not like that she was

297
00:15:30,519 --> 00:15:33,600
seeing videos of oh, these aliens coming down and exerting

298
00:15:33,639 --> 00:15:37,039
all this power. So it was just so it was

299
00:15:37,120 --> 00:15:39,799
so ludicrous that part of the film, and the other

300
00:15:39,879 --> 00:15:42,759
ludicrous the whole, the whole idea, and it's an insult

301
00:15:42,799 --> 00:15:44,960
to abduct these Not that I believe the traditional abduction

302
00:15:45,039 --> 00:15:46,639
narrative either, but I have to come back to it

303
00:15:46,639 --> 00:15:48,600
because you brought it up. Is that the story is

304
00:15:48,679 --> 00:15:51,879
essentially there's just two alien abductees, and these people have

305
00:15:51,960 --> 00:15:56,559
been programmed by the ETS big spoiler to essentially initiate disclosure.

306
00:15:56,600 --> 00:15:59,360
And the ETS are good. Now, if you read any

307
00:15:59,399 --> 00:16:02,200
amount of alien abduction literature, and again I have taken

308
00:16:02,279 --> 00:16:05,360
all with a grain of salt, the idea of these aliens,

309
00:16:05,440 --> 00:16:07,320
like tell me to an abductee who thinks they were

310
00:16:07,360 --> 00:16:09,639
probed when they were child, and you know what I mean,

311
00:16:10,000 --> 00:16:12,000
just present the aliens as the good guys that were

312
00:16:12,080 --> 00:16:15,159
here to So it's one little narrow corner of eufology,

313
00:16:15,480 --> 00:16:18,600
you know, turned into this like this is there's only

314
00:16:18,639 --> 00:16:22,279
two abductees and they've been programmed to save us. It's anyway,

315
00:16:22,360 --> 00:16:24,720
my head was exploding a few times during the movie,

316
00:16:24,720 --> 00:16:25,679
as you can probably tell.

317
00:16:25,799 --> 00:16:28,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, I bet, yeah, it was. There were a lot

318
00:16:28,840 --> 00:16:31,360
of moments it was you know, it was like essentially

319
00:16:31,399 --> 00:16:34,559
like a chase movie, you know, being chased. And then

320
00:16:35,240 --> 00:16:38,840
I found it like so crazy that here these these

321
00:16:38,840 --> 00:16:42,480
guys are chasing them and they're they're so inept that

322
00:16:42,600 --> 00:16:46,120
they don't see this guy like five feet away from them,

323
00:16:46,200 --> 00:16:49,639
and it's like, oh man, that was bad crunching crunching

324
00:16:49,679 --> 00:16:52,559
branches and they don't hear that. So I mean, that's

325
00:16:52,600 --> 00:16:55,879
again it's a movie like we understand that, but no,

326
00:16:56,240 --> 00:16:58,360
but I did. I actually kind of liked the fact

327
00:16:58,360 --> 00:17:00,639
that they did the Jackie plice and at least they

328
00:17:01,120 --> 00:17:02,840
had that because that was in that in that you

329
00:17:03,240 --> 00:17:05,640
the lore of that. I also like the fact that

330
00:17:05,680 --> 00:17:09,559
they actually mentioned a little bit of Kexsburg in there too. Yeah,

331
00:17:10,720 --> 00:17:14,200
whereas Kexsburg, I don't realize that they didn't have. I

332
00:17:14,200 --> 00:17:17,079
mean from all the literature that in the in the stories,

333
00:17:17,319 --> 00:17:19,599
there was never anything as far as like an alien

334
00:17:19,680 --> 00:17:22,920
recovered from there. It was maybe alluded to they took

335
00:17:22,960 --> 00:17:25,440
the craft and the object out of there, but they

336
00:17:25,440 --> 00:17:27,720
made it like there there was an actual alien still

337
00:17:27,759 --> 00:17:30,920
alive there, you know. And and again they didn't go

338
00:17:30,960 --> 00:17:33,079
back as far as they showed a little bit of Roswell.

339
00:17:33,319 --> 00:17:35,720
But look, you know, we're in a generation now that

340
00:17:35,759 --> 00:17:37,680
these are young people that are going to come to

341
00:17:37,680 --> 00:17:39,839
see this, and yeah, they're gonna probably they're going to

342
00:17:39,880 --> 00:17:42,920
talk about Roswell and hopefully they'll do some research. People

343
00:17:42,920 --> 00:17:45,559
seeing this will do some research and go back to

344
00:17:45,599 --> 00:17:49,319
some of these stories that have been around for ages,

345
00:17:49,440 --> 00:17:52,960
you know, eighty years and more and and and do

346
00:17:53,000 --> 00:17:56,519
the research themselves and know that look, some of the stuff, yeah,

347
00:17:56,839 --> 00:17:59,279
this this could have happened, This other stuff could have happened,

348
00:17:59,319 --> 00:18:01,519
and then this other stuff is complete rubbish like you

349
00:18:01,559 --> 00:18:05,240
just said. So you know, but yeah, it was. I

350
00:18:05,279 --> 00:18:07,440
don't know, man, it was. It was. It's tough because

351
00:18:07,440 --> 00:18:09,920
I love Steven Spielbert, but man, it's like you wanted

352
00:18:09,960 --> 00:18:11,079
something a little bit more.

353
00:18:11,400 --> 00:18:14,119
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was weird on how many levels. I was disappointed.

354
00:18:14,160 --> 00:18:16,119
I took my daughter. She actually enjoyed it because I

355
00:18:16,119 --> 00:18:20,440
guess it's a relatively fast moving movie and there's little animals. Again,

356
00:18:20,960 --> 00:18:24,160
this literalization of the shield memory that abductees talk about,

357
00:18:24,240 --> 00:18:26,119
or the screen memory I saw an owl or I

358
00:18:26,119 --> 00:18:27,880
saw a fox, or I saw a deer. It was

359
00:18:27,880 --> 00:18:30,720
really discovered. You know, anybody who's read a David Jacob's book,

360
00:18:30,839 --> 00:18:32,759
or you know a Bud Hopkins book or you know

361
00:18:32,799 --> 00:18:36,039
whatever aware of this story. So that was kind of cool,

362
00:18:36,240 --> 00:18:40,480
if an over literalization of things, I think. But I

363
00:18:40,880 --> 00:18:44,720
can't see this film being a classic the way we

364
00:18:44,759 --> 00:18:47,359
look back at it as et and close encounters in

365
00:18:47,359 --> 00:18:49,240
the years to come. And one of the reasons is

366
00:18:49,279 --> 00:18:51,279
the two lead characters, not that Emily Blunt or the

367
00:18:51,319 --> 00:18:53,440
other guy who plays the male leader, you know, bad

368
00:18:53,480 --> 00:18:56,279
actors or anything. But it is no everyman element of it.

369
00:18:56,400 --> 00:18:59,240
There's no like, there's no neary element of it, or

370
00:18:59,279 --> 00:19:02,680
the who loses her child to the abduct to the

371
00:19:02,720 --> 00:19:05,599
abduction in Close Encounters. I don't think you can, really,

372
00:19:05,920 --> 00:19:08,960
I don't think you can travel with these characters. Your

373
00:19:09,000 --> 00:19:11,720
average person can't travel with these characters the way they

374
00:19:11,720 --> 00:19:14,000
could travel with the Late, the male and female late

375
00:19:14,039 --> 00:19:15,440
in the original Close Encounters.

376
00:19:15,559 --> 00:19:18,000
Speaker 3: No, no, I totally agree. And that was the thing too.

377
00:19:18,240 --> 00:19:20,319
You know, there was that one moment in there where

378
00:19:20,359 --> 00:19:23,720
the cardinal comes in and all of a sudden, she's

379
00:19:23,880 --> 00:19:25,920
just she has a memory, and she goes back and

380
00:19:25,960 --> 00:19:29,400
then suddenly can speak all these you know, different languages

381
00:19:29,440 --> 00:19:32,920
and stuff. Another spoiler, sorry, guys. So you know, so

382
00:19:33,200 --> 00:19:35,640
that's one part of it. And then this other guy,

383
00:19:35,799 --> 00:19:38,559
you know that he can understand what she's saying because

384
00:19:38,680 --> 00:19:42,640
she's talking in math, you know, And so I get that,

385
00:19:42,960 --> 00:19:47,319
and those are cool elements. But let's not forget this movie. Also,

386
00:19:47,640 --> 00:19:51,200
it was rewritten forty two times, you know, so it

387
00:19:51,279 --> 00:19:55,359
was written then rewritten, so you know, but I do look,

388
00:19:55,400 --> 00:19:57,519
at the end of the day, at least he's getting

389
00:19:57,559 --> 00:19:59,359
people to talk about it, you know, and maybe not

390
00:19:59,440 --> 00:20:02,200
good about it, but at least we're talking about it

391
00:20:02,240 --> 00:20:05,079
and what could be. And then you've got other researchers

392
00:20:05,119 --> 00:20:07,920
like us, and that we're doing our own research. We're

393
00:20:07,960 --> 00:20:10,799
talking to witnesses. I mean, I'm getting people, like I said,

394
00:20:10,799 --> 00:20:14,519
I'm getting people that are seeing these things and experiencing

395
00:20:14,599 --> 00:20:18,119
all of this stuff. And I truly believe that there

396
00:20:18,160 --> 00:20:20,680
are certain a lot of people are connected to this

397
00:20:20,799 --> 00:20:25,599
paranormal energy and the spirit world. Whether it's ghosts, UFO's

398
00:20:25,640 --> 00:20:29,799
bigfoot dog man, whatever, people are connected in some way

399
00:20:29,880 --> 00:20:31,920
like a big spider web, They're all connected to this.

400
00:20:32,480 --> 00:20:35,039
Speaker 2: I think that's where Spielberg dropped the ball here. I

401
00:20:35,079 --> 00:20:37,359
think we're at a stage now and understanding this a

402
00:20:37,359 --> 00:20:39,720
little bit better as a community, or at least as

403
00:20:39,920 --> 00:20:41,920
some of the members of the community. Where have you

404
00:20:42,039 --> 00:20:44,599
dealt well instead of dealing with the religious issues so

405
00:20:44,720 --> 00:20:48,119
dismissively having that more than just well, people's faith will

406
00:20:48,160 --> 00:20:50,079
be broken if they know there's aliens, which is such

407
00:20:50,079 --> 00:20:53,160
a tried idea now to actually have looked at perhaps

408
00:20:53,240 --> 00:20:57,000
some of the spiritual and some of the paranormal aspects

409
00:20:57,039 --> 00:20:59,000
of the phenomena. Now that makes it a hardest story

410
00:20:59,039 --> 00:21:01,200
to tell, and it isn't easily wrapped up in you know,

411
00:21:01,279 --> 00:21:03,200
three acts and just a stamp on the end. Of it.

412
00:21:03,440 --> 00:21:05,279
But I think it would have been much more powerful

413
00:21:05,359 --> 00:21:07,799
that it hadn't been so literalized again the same way

414
00:21:07,799 --> 00:21:09,480
he did at the end of Closing Counters. What was

415
00:21:09,519 --> 00:21:11,920
still in you and Fresh though you could super literalize it. Yeah,

416
00:21:11,960 --> 00:21:13,640
I mean, now it's not you and Fresh anymore.

417
00:21:13,720 --> 00:21:15,519
Speaker 3: Yeah, you had at the end of Close Encounters, you

418
00:21:15,599 --> 00:21:19,440
had this this contact between this race and you had

419
00:21:19,440 --> 00:21:21,359
this like and this was you know, it was all

420
00:21:21,400 --> 00:21:24,480
coming to that, to that aspect in this you didn't

421
00:21:24,519 --> 00:21:26,680
know where it was going, like where are we going?

422
00:21:26,720 --> 00:21:28,680
Here is it? Are they gonna? Are they gonna get

423
00:21:28,759 --> 00:21:31,359
chased again? Out of here? She's ready, you know, she's

424
00:21:31,440 --> 00:21:33,599
ready to disclose all this stuff. And those guys just

425
00:21:33,640 --> 00:21:36,400
walk out of the room. I mean, if that was

426
00:21:36,440 --> 00:21:39,799
real life, she'd be she'd be tackled. You know, It's

427
00:21:39,880 --> 00:21:42,359
just like it was like really, But I did like

428
00:21:42,400 --> 00:21:44,839
the fact that there was no killing in this, you know,

429
00:21:44,880 --> 00:21:47,680
which was nice too, because there was you know, not

430
00:21:47,799 --> 00:21:50,400
of humans, that is right, but you know, but it

431
00:21:50,480 --> 00:21:53,480
was nice to see that because movies nowadays, man, it's

432
00:21:53,519 --> 00:21:57,119
just gratuitous violence in this it's crazy. But this at

433
00:21:57,200 --> 00:22:00,759
least brought back a little bit of you know, wholesomeness

434
00:22:00,799 --> 00:22:03,039
and that kind of thing, you know, not having that

435
00:22:03,079 --> 00:22:05,640
and you don't need that in this particular story. I

436
00:22:05,640 --> 00:22:06,519
don't think you needed that.

437
00:22:07,119 --> 00:22:08,880
Speaker 2: It was a very I think it's a fairly family

438
00:22:08,920 --> 00:22:12,640
friendly film. Yeah, when my daughter was I was actually

439
00:22:12,680 --> 00:22:15,440
in two minds about taking it because I'd seen there

440
00:22:15,480 --> 00:22:18,680
was some abduction imagery in the trailer, the most recent trailer,

441
00:22:18,680 --> 00:22:19,960
and I thought, I don't know that some of that

442
00:22:20,039 --> 00:22:22,599
imagery can be really strong, But it was actually so

443
00:22:22,799 --> 00:22:25,200
mild in this movie. And it wasn't like it wasn't

444
00:22:25,279 --> 00:22:27,880
like you know we've seen in Communion, or we've seen

445
00:22:27,920 --> 00:22:30,559
in you know, the Travis Walton, you know, Fire in

446
00:22:30,559 --> 00:22:33,440
the Sky movie, or so many movies with abduction imagery

447
00:22:33,440 --> 00:22:35,160
are just like literally would haunt you if you were

448
00:22:35,160 --> 00:22:35,519
a child.

449
00:22:35,599 --> 00:22:38,519
Speaker 3: Just have that. I would suggest if anyone wants to

450
00:22:38,559 --> 00:22:42,640
really get a really people want to be haunted, go

451
00:22:42,720 --> 00:22:48,000
and listen to the Barney Hill and Betty Hill hypnosis transcriptions.

452
00:22:48,240 --> 00:22:51,680
Right the audio recordings of these guys that were under hypnosis.

453
00:22:52,000 --> 00:22:54,079
You will it'll bring tears to your eyes. It brought

454
00:22:54,119 --> 00:22:58,359
tears to my eyes. I was hit with such just

455
00:22:58,640 --> 00:23:01,839
for what these two people went through and and this

456
00:23:01,960 --> 00:23:04,839
doctor was not coercing them into into this. This is

457
00:23:04,920 --> 00:23:08,319
something that happened. And I mean the way Barney is

458
00:23:08,319 --> 00:23:11,920
describing these things, man, I mean he is absolutely terrified.

459
00:23:12,440 --> 00:23:15,279
So I and that's available on YouTube. People can go

460
00:23:15,400 --> 00:23:17,759
check it out. But it's amazing, So, you know, stuff

461
00:23:17,759 --> 00:23:20,240
like that. And then Travis Walton, you know, all these guys,

462
00:23:20,279 --> 00:23:24,400
there's maybe a handful of those abduction cases, Whitley Strieber,

463
00:23:24,759 --> 00:23:27,440
all these guys that I think are really you know,

464
00:23:28,000 --> 00:23:31,480
it's stuff happened to them, you know, But but none

465
00:23:31,480 --> 00:23:33,759
of that was addressed. You know, none of that was

466
00:23:33,799 --> 00:23:37,759
even talked about. And it's a global it's a global thing.

467
00:23:38,279 --> 00:23:41,839
And just to have two people no more, it's bigger

468
00:23:41,880 --> 00:23:42,079
than that.

469
00:23:42,400 --> 00:23:44,440
Speaker 2: You know. It's interesting. I wonder to see, I'm somebody

470
00:23:44,480 --> 00:23:46,599
who's not a real nuts and bolts you know, you

471
00:23:46,720 --> 00:23:50,279
follows I drift into the Kilian valet In type interpretations

472
00:23:50,319 --> 00:23:54,160
in the more and also more social psychological type interpretations. Well,

473
00:23:54,160 --> 00:23:59,000
but I wonder how your more traditional extraterrestrial hypothesis believe

474
00:23:59,079 --> 00:24:01,559
who's well read in literature at least, how are they

475
00:24:01,680 --> 00:24:03,480
going to take this movie? Like, are they going to

476
00:24:03,480 --> 00:24:06,000
be insulted by the way alien abduction is dealt with.

477
00:24:06,119 --> 00:24:08,359
Are they going to just I don't know, because I'm

478
00:24:08,359 --> 00:24:10,839
not that person anymore. You know, there was a period

479
00:24:10,839 --> 00:24:12,880
of my life many years ago where I was more

480
00:24:12,920 --> 00:24:15,160
of that person. But I mean, I'm looking at it

481
00:24:15,200 --> 00:24:17,880
for more of a you know, a critical position as

482
00:24:17,880 --> 00:24:20,480
somebody who's interested in film as well as somebody who

483
00:24:21,119 --> 00:24:24,200
is very suspicious of any disclosure narrative anyway, But i'd

484
00:24:24,200 --> 00:24:27,599
be I'm really I'm curious to see how this blows

485
00:24:27,680 --> 00:24:30,279
out in the UFO community, people going this is amazing,

486
00:24:30,359 --> 00:24:32,279
or people going no, this is wrong here and here

487
00:24:32,319 --> 00:24:32,640
and here.

488
00:24:32,960 --> 00:24:34,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, and I think I think you're going to get

489
00:24:35,000 --> 00:24:38,440
a lot more of the latter, you know. And yeah,

490
00:24:38,519 --> 00:24:40,519
already some of the reviews coming out, you know. And

491
00:24:40,559 --> 00:24:42,119
I mean some of the reviews are great, you know.

492
00:24:42,160 --> 00:24:43,359
And that's and that's fine.

493
00:24:43,519 --> 00:24:45,599
Speaker 2: I purpose we didn't read any before we talk Like

494
00:24:45,640 --> 00:24:47,559
I saw them dropping, I thought, no, I'm not because

495
00:24:47,559 --> 00:24:50,039
I don't want to take my interpretation same thing.

496
00:24:50,079 --> 00:24:51,960
Speaker 3: I didn't want to see anything before I went to

497
00:24:51,960 --> 00:24:54,079
see it. As a matter of fact, I got an

498
00:24:54,119 --> 00:24:57,079
email and I posted on Facebook that I get an

499
00:24:57,079 --> 00:25:01,480
email from a representative from US Universal inviting us to

500
00:25:01,519 --> 00:25:04,079
go see a pre screen, which was really wild. Yeah,

501
00:25:05,039 --> 00:25:07,960
we're influencers. My god, this is amazing, so you know,

502
00:25:08,359 --> 00:25:10,759
and that was cool. And then we had a film

503
00:25:10,799 --> 00:25:14,119
critic sitting behind us in Philadelphia by the name of

504
00:25:14,160 --> 00:25:17,559
Patrick Stoner who was actually going to talk to Bielberg

505
00:25:17,640 --> 00:25:21,240
the next day. So I don't know if that review

506
00:25:21,319 --> 00:25:23,480
came out yet, but I'm sure. I'm sure it has

507
00:25:23,920 --> 00:25:26,799
confessional spin it but it was pretty cool. But yeah, no,

508
00:25:26,920 --> 00:25:28,839
I think you're you're going to have both sides are

509
00:25:28,880 --> 00:25:30,519
going to be you know, kind of like what is

510
00:25:30,559 --> 00:25:33,279
going on or saying, well, you know it's here, this

511
00:25:33,319 --> 00:25:35,960
is what we've been talking about for eighty years, you know.

512
00:25:37,759 --> 00:25:39,440
Speaker 2: And I also, you know what, this is me just

513
00:25:39,440 --> 00:25:41,680
being filming now. Then we'll get to some really UFO cases,

514
00:25:41,680 --> 00:25:43,440
because I'm sure much of our audience would love to

515
00:25:43,480 --> 00:25:46,400
hear that too. The movie was a very cold movie

516
00:25:46,400 --> 00:25:49,839
as well, in production design and just generally, and now

517
00:25:50,359 --> 00:25:54,960
maybe that was intentional, but it didn't feel like it was.

518
00:25:55,359 --> 00:25:58,440
It felt almost two, I don't know, clean the space,

519
00:25:58,480 --> 00:26:00,480
even when they were in dirty scenes like that, you know,

520
00:26:00,519 --> 00:26:02,799
the farmhouse that they escaped to for a while, it

521
00:26:02,880 --> 00:26:05,400
never felt like this lived in environment the way Close

522
00:26:05,480 --> 00:26:07,680
Encounters and ET did like. It never felt like, oh,

523
00:26:07,680 --> 00:26:09,400
that's what my living room would look like, you know

524
00:26:09,440 --> 00:26:11,319
what I mean, Or that's what my apartment would look like,

525
00:26:11,519 --> 00:26:15,480
or it just felt it just even the government scenes

526
00:26:15,480 --> 00:26:18,039
in Close Encounters were kind of denky and ganky and

527
00:26:18,079 --> 00:26:20,920
they felt real. This just felt so I don't know,

528
00:26:21,160 --> 00:26:25,519
just so perfectly overproduced production. Just that also made me

529
00:26:25,559 --> 00:26:28,200
think this I can tell by certain shots, like you know,

530
00:26:28,279 --> 00:26:31,519
the fruit loops falling in front of the hail scene.

531
00:26:31,519 --> 00:26:33,920
There's things which is very spilberging and in there the

532
00:26:34,000 --> 00:26:36,119
bright back light at the end where the you know,

533
00:26:36,160 --> 00:26:39,200
the supervisors with the two main leads and you know,

534
00:26:39,240 --> 00:26:41,279
it's all blown out light in the back. There are

535
00:26:41,319 --> 00:26:43,680
things that look like Spilberg. But there's also a lot

536
00:26:43,720 --> 00:26:45,160
of it that doesn't. There's a lot of it that

537
00:26:45,279 --> 00:26:49,119
just looks like modern paint by numbers production design and lighting.

538
00:26:49,160 --> 00:26:51,000
And that also disappointed me, to be.

539
00:26:51,160 --> 00:26:53,720
Speaker 3: Yes, the only thing I did like. I did like

540
00:26:53,839 --> 00:26:57,359
about one thing about it was the psychic connection to

541
00:26:57,440 --> 00:26:59,960
these things, and that was kind of neat with that

542
00:27:00,079 --> 00:27:02,759
device that they were holding, and that was kind of

543
00:27:02,799 --> 00:27:05,759
cool where you could almost say it was very remote viewing,

544
00:27:06,519 --> 00:27:09,440
you know, similar situation to that that was cool, yeah,

545
00:27:09,960 --> 00:27:14,559
which was cool. And the teleportation aspects of this thing,

546
00:27:15,039 --> 00:27:17,680
you know, which is really cool. So those are the

547
00:27:17,720 --> 00:27:21,039
things that I think were interesting that way, But as

548
00:27:21,039 --> 00:27:25,680
far as like the overall uphology, myth kind of fell flat.

549
00:27:26,000 --> 00:27:28,839
Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, well, I mean, and what would you if

550
00:27:28,839 --> 00:27:31,079
you go maybe and then we'll move on. If you

551
00:27:31,359 --> 00:27:32,880
if we were going to do a standard Cisco and

552
00:27:32,960 --> 00:27:35,400
Abot type, you know, writing out of five stars or

553
00:27:35,480 --> 00:27:37,240
you know, thumbs up or thumbs down or whatever we

554
00:27:37,279 --> 00:27:38,920
want to do, what would you what would you give

555
00:27:38,960 --> 00:27:39,400
this movie?

556
00:27:39,519 --> 00:27:41,559
Speaker 3: I would say, like somebody asked me that today, what

557
00:27:41,720 --> 00:27:45,119
out of ten you know, ten tenco? Then I would

558
00:27:45,160 --> 00:27:45,880
say it's a seven.

559
00:27:48,920 --> 00:27:51,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, I would maybe give it five maybe, Like I

560
00:27:51,640 --> 00:27:54,119
just you know, it was In fact, I think it's

561
00:27:54,160 --> 00:27:57,759
probably I'm trying to think if I've seen a Spielberg

562
00:27:57,799 --> 00:27:59,680
movie which is as poor as this, I don't think

563
00:27:59,680 --> 00:28:03,359
I have. I think it's Spielberg hitting its lowest batting average.

564
00:28:03,400 --> 00:28:04,839
I just don't think it's a good I just don't,

565
00:28:04,880 --> 00:28:06,599
you know, I don't think it's a great movie anyway,

566
00:28:06,680 --> 00:28:09,920
but and uphologically, I think it's even worse, which a three.

567
00:28:10,119 --> 00:28:13,119
Speaker 3: But yeah, I mean, like I said, you're gonna get

568
00:28:13,160 --> 00:28:15,319
both sides back and forth on this. I think it's

569
00:28:15,319 --> 00:28:17,440
going to be the next the next few months on

570
00:28:17,480 --> 00:28:19,319
this is going to be it's gonna be crazy, you know,

571
00:28:19,359 --> 00:28:22,160
for the UFO world. But uh, but at least we're

572
00:28:22,200 --> 00:28:24,599
at least one thing is we're talking about it, you know,

573
00:28:25,640 --> 00:28:28,640
and there but beyond all this, there is stuff going on.

574
00:28:28,680 --> 00:28:31,920
I mean, there's there's people that are having encounters, which

575
00:28:31,960 --> 00:28:34,559
is which is an incredible thing. So that's what are

576
00:28:34,720 --> 00:28:36,559
That's what we're on the pulse of right now.

577
00:28:37,000 --> 00:28:38,920
Speaker 2: Tell us a little bit about the Turkey heel case

578
00:28:39,000 --> 00:28:42,319
I watched recently. Oh my god, it's a fascinating story, man,

579
00:28:42,359 --> 00:28:44,000
that's more fascinating than this film was.

580
00:28:44,279 --> 00:28:47,079
Speaker 3: Oh my god, thank you. That gets a ten.

581
00:28:49,400 --> 00:28:51,640
Speaker 2: At least gets a gnaw And it's a fascinating story.

582
00:28:51,680 --> 00:28:51,839
Speaker 3: Man.

583
00:28:51,839 --> 00:28:52,680
Speaker 2: It's great from you.

584
00:28:52,759 --> 00:28:55,559
Speaker 3: I appreciate that. Oh my god. Now you know, it

585
00:28:55,680 --> 00:28:58,680
was crazy because we did this video uh UFOs over

586
00:28:58,759 --> 00:29:03,519
Jim Thorpe, Pennsylvania, and it was incredible because people, you know,

587
00:29:03,599 --> 00:29:06,799
here's the thing we're talking about. All this UFO disclosure

588
00:29:06,839 --> 00:29:09,319
and people are coming out of the woodwork talking about

589
00:29:09,319 --> 00:29:12,720
their encounters, you know, and that stigmatic kind of idea

590
00:29:12,759 --> 00:29:15,920
has gone away now because hey, you know, these are

591
00:29:15,960 --> 00:29:20,640
people are having these experiences. So that jim Thorpe was incredible.

592
00:29:20,720 --> 00:29:24,079
A guy who's also a comedian, his name is Russell Austen,

593
00:29:24,839 --> 00:29:26,839
wanted to tell the story and he said he and

594
00:29:26,839 --> 00:29:29,880
a buddy were driving in jim Thorpe heading out of town,

595
00:29:30,240 --> 00:29:32,400
and traffic was really going slow. They're trying to figure

596
00:29:32,440 --> 00:29:34,400
out what's going on, and they look up and hear

597
00:29:34,759 --> 00:29:38,200
they see just above the building, not even you know,

598
00:29:38,319 --> 00:29:42,279
high up, just about building top was this, Like he said,

599
00:29:42,400 --> 00:29:44,119
he thought it was a blimp, but it was a

600
00:29:44,279 --> 00:29:49,480
round blue sphere and just basically hovering over the town

601
00:29:50,000 --> 00:29:52,240
and they couldn't believe it. He was trying to take

602
00:29:52,240 --> 00:29:55,079
his phone, trying to take a picture of his phone,

603
00:29:55,640 --> 00:29:58,160
and his phone wasn't working. It was not able to

604
00:29:58,200 --> 00:30:01,559
do it. It was just completely like combobulated, So that

605
00:30:01,720 --> 00:30:05,240
was interesting. He was having like electronic disturbances and all

606
00:30:05,279 --> 00:30:07,759
the traffic people were looking up at this thing, and

607
00:30:07,799 --> 00:30:10,839
he said, suddenly a door, he looked like a door

608
00:30:10,920 --> 00:30:14,079
opened up underneath this thing and it went into something

609
00:30:15,240 --> 00:30:18,319
and disappeared, which is like I'm saying to myself, is

610
00:30:18,359 --> 00:30:22,359
this interdimensional? What is going on here? But he swears

611
00:30:22,400 --> 00:30:24,920
by this stuff, and look, I said this to you before.

612
00:30:25,680 --> 00:30:28,359
I'm good at discerning the truth from the bs from people,

613
00:30:29,160 --> 00:30:31,480
you know, and when this guy you could tell was

614
00:30:31,640 --> 00:30:34,759
the real deal telling because he was still perplexed by

615
00:30:34,799 --> 00:30:38,880
it and wasn't able to get any pictures. But again,

616
00:30:39,400 --> 00:30:41,839
he's a guy that I think is connected because he's

617
00:30:41,880 --> 00:30:46,319
had other experiences and seeing these orbs and the orange

618
00:30:46,440 --> 00:30:49,680
orbs and stuff, so he may be a connector to

619
00:30:49,799 --> 00:30:50,319
these things.

620
00:30:50,480 --> 00:30:53,440
Speaker 2: That's swimming story too, because he's one of the key

621
00:30:53,480 --> 00:30:55,680
witnesses in that story. That's the craziest one of the

622
00:30:55,720 --> 00:30:57,559
banshe I think of, which was crazy.

623
00:30:57,640 --> 00:31:01,559
Speaker 3: Him and Michelle Gallagher, who was she they're both friends

624
00:31:02,000 --> 00:31:05,640
and they shared this this weird UFO en counter. They

625
00:31:05,640 --> 00:31:09,039
were swimming in the lake they saw this orange sphere

626
00:31:09,039 --> 00:31:12,480
coming toward them. Russell said he went under the water,

627
00:31:13,000 --> 00:31:16,720
which felt like only like thirty like thirty seconds if that,

628
00:31:17,599 --> 00:31:21,000
and when he popped up, everybody was gone. And but

629
00:31:21,119 --> 00:31:23,400
he's like it was like an hour. I'm like an

630
00:31:23,480 --> 00:31:25,920
hour you're under the wall. How do you get how

631
00:31:25,920 --> 00:31:28,000
do you go underwater for an hour? But he thinks

632
00:31:28,759 --> 00:31:33,000
the missing time was some kind of an aduction experience there. So,

633
00:31:33,759 --> 00:31:36,319
and here's the thing I joked with Michelle, I'm like, man,

634
00:31:36,359 --> 00:31:38,440
I don't want to be in your friend group if

635
00:31:38,480 --> 00:31:40,839
you didn't realize he was not missing because there was

636
00:31:40,839 --> 00:31:43,640
not a lot of people with you guys, So there

637
00:31:43,720 --> 00:31:45,599
was like four or five people and he's not there.

638
00:31:46,720 --> 00:31:49,240
So but no, it was. It was amazing. And then

639
00:31:49,279 --> 00:31:51,599
he popped up and said everybody was gone. Yeah, I

640
00:31:51,680 --> 00:31:54,039
didn't know where he went, and he still doesn't know

641
00:31:54,160 --> 00:31:56,960
to this day where that hour and a half went.

642
00:31:57,680 --> 00:31:59,559
Speaker 2: The weirdest thing is I mean, that's sweet, but the

643
00:31:59,599 --> 00:32:02,319
fact that the friends kind of just you know, dismissed

644
00:32:02,319 --> 00:32:04,599
it as well, it reminded me vague and it's nowhere

645
00:32:04,640 --> 00:32:07,359
nearest dramatic, but it reminded me vaguely of an experience

646
00:32:07,480 --> 00:32:11,279
I had back in Sydney when I was doing still

647
00:32:11,359 --> 00:32:15,799
my postgraduate work and UFO stuff.

648
00:32:15,799 --> 00:32:16,119
Speaker 3: I went.

649
00:32:16,519 --> 00:32:19,279
Speaker 2: I invited some friends to go on like a UFO

650
00:32:20,200 --> 00:32:23,359
spotting kind of you know, evening with me to an

651
00:32:23,440 --> 00:32:26,920
area in western Sydney where the Blue Mountains are, it's

652
00:32:26,960 --> 00:32:29,480
called the Blue Mountains outside the kind of Penrith area,

653
00:32:29,559 --> 00:32:32,920
And so we were up there all night, you know,

654
00:32:33,079 --> 00:32:34,799
looking in the sky to see if we could see

655
00:32:34,880 --> 00:32:37,240
UFOs because there were all these rumors about a UFO

656
00:32:37,400 --> 00:32:40,079
base buried, you know, down in the valley and UFO

657
00:32:40,160 --> 00:32:42,200
scene all the time. And we didn't see any UFOs.

658
00:32:42,240 --> 00:32:44,720
But just as we were getting to leave, weirdest thing

659
00:32:45,200 --> 00:32:49,039
there was all this very strange blue lightning type flashes

660
00:32:49,039 --> 00:32:51,640
not lightning though, like just weird blue flashes in the

661
00:32:51,720 --> 00:32:53,960
valley we were looking at and in the sky, and

662
00:32:54,000 --> 00:32:56,680
you would think if people were out there looking for

663
00:32:56,720 --> 00:32:58,680
the anomalous, they would have been like, what the earth,

664
00:32:58,839 --> 00:33:02,400
what's this? And been and we're just like okay, let's go. Yeah,

665
00:33:02,440 --> 00:33:04,880
And you hear stories at times sometimes people have these

666
00:33:04,920 --> 00:33:09,200
experiences and something almost shuts off there the curiosity. Gland,

667
00:33:09,279 --> 00:33:12,680
I don't know. And when I was watching your video,

668
00:33:12,960 --> 00:33:15,160
which was a far more extreme case, you know, a

669
00:33:15,160 --> 00:33:16,920
friend goes underwater and he's like, well he's gone, I

670
00:33:16,920 --> 00:33:18,839
don't know, we're going home and he's like, what happened?

671
00:33:18,960 --> 00:33:22,920
I don't know? Just to normalize something so strange. Is

672
00:33:22,920 --> 00:33:25,640
that something you come across, because I know you're investigating

673
00:33:25,680 --> 00:33:28,440
all the time. Is that something you you come across

674
00:33:28,759 --> 00:33:31,960
occasionally or frequently people who just have a very strange

675
00:33:32,000 --> 00:33:34,119
experience and just tend to normalize it or.

676
00:33:34,720 --> 00:33:37,559
Speaker 3: Yeah, no, that's that's a good question. Well, this was

677
00:33:37,599 --> 00:33:39,519
one of the first ones that we did where there

678
00:33:39,559 --> 00:33:41,960
was a case of missing time here. So this was

679
00:33:42,039 --> 00:33:44,519
kind of new to me. And so you have to

680
00:33:44,559 --> 00:33:48,119
treat these things like, well, look like a detective, would

681
00:33:48,119 --> 00:33:50,160
you know, You've got to look around and say, well,

682
00:33:50,160 --> 00:33:52,319
what was going on at the time, right, what was

683
00:33:52,359 --> 00:33:55,640
going on, who were you with, what were you doing

684
00:33:55,680 --> 00:33:58,279
at that time? Do you remember what time of day

685
00:33:58,319 --> 00:34:02,559
it was, and just the general feelings that they had

686
00:34:02,559 --> 00:34:06,200
at the time when they saw this thing. So, but

687
00:34:06,279 --> 00:34:10,039
this was this was new and the next and now

688
00:34:10,159 --> 00:34:13,320
the next UFO video that we're doing actually is UH.

689
00:34:13,400 --> 00:34:15,719
We started shooting it today. I wanted to show you

690
00:34:15,760 --> 00:34:19,480
this because today we shot with UH with a guy

691
00:34:19,519 --> 00:34:23,599
who had an experience with UH with a UFO encounter

692
00:34:24,039 --> 00:34:31,920
and it was none other than the King Elvis right there.

693
00:34:35,320 --> 00:34:39,199
He's an Elvis impersonator, but he does you know, does shows.

694
00:34:39,440 --> 00:34:42,119
But he was telling us about this incredible ufone character

695
00:34:42,239 --> 00:34:45,320
he had over in our area. And now we're talking

696
00:34:45,400 --> 00:34:50,840
to another guy who's a hypnotist in Doylestown, which is

697
00:34:50,880 --> 00:34:54,679
an area town right down the street here, and he's

698
00:34:54,719 --> 00:34:56,559
talking of we're going to talk with him about an

699
00:34:56,559 --> 00:34:59,679
alien abduction case that he had with a woman and

700
00:34:59,800 --> 00:35:01,320
we he might be able to talk with her too

701
00:35:01,760 --> 00:35:04,719
and get her take on what happened. And also then

702
00:35:04,760 --> 00:35:07,559
we're going to also talk to Bill Burns from UFO Hunters.

703
00:35:07,920 --> 00:35:11,480
Talk to Bill and because Bill has got another case

704
00:35:11,519 --> 00:35:14,719
of missing time that happened here in Bucks County. But

705
00:35:15,000 --> 00:35:16,800
you know, and people for your listeners, I'm sure they

706
00:35:16,880 --> 00:35:19,800
know who Bill Burns is. The man is amazing. Every

707
00:35:19,800 --> 00:35:21,800
time I get together with Bill, and I'm so lucky

708
00:35:21,840 --> 00:35:24,760
he's like our next door neighbor. Practically I get a

709
00:35:24,840 --> 00:35:27,920
chance to talk with him, I learned something new all

710
00:35:27,960 --> 00:35:31,880
the time, amazing stuff. So that's coming up in our

711
00:35:31,920 --> 00:35:34,480
next video. We're going to be shooting that next week

712
00:35:34,559 --> 00:35:35,960
and we'll probably have that out by the end of

713
00:35:36,000 --> 00:35:39,519
the month, and that's going to be really cool. But yeah,

714
00:35:39,559 --> 00:35:42,480
to your point, you know, when you look at these things,

715
00:35:42,519 --> 00:35:45,880
you've got to really I don't know. For me, it's

716
00:35:45,880 --> 00:35:48,480
something new. So I've got to look at this and say, Wow,

717
00:35:48,920 --> 00:35:52,199
are these people really telling the truth here? What did

718
00:35:52,199 --> 00:35:54,079
they really experience? Because I don't want to ever be

719
00:35:54,159 --> 00:35:56,360
hurtful with anybody, you know, I don't want to ever

720
00:35:57,000 --> 00:36:00,320
discount what they're they're feeling, because if they're having these

721
00:36:00,599 --> 00:36:03,559
experiences and there, it's as real to them as you

722
00:36:03,599 --> 00:36:06,599
and I are talking. Uh, you know that there's something

723
00:36:06,639 --> 00:36:10,800
going on. You know, there's a there's a there's a

724
00:36:10,840 --> 00:36:14,239
group in I think it's up in Massachusetts. Uh, and

725
00:36:14,280 --> 00:36:17,960
it's on Facebook. It's called the Red Grid Group. There's

726
00:36:18,079 --> 00:36:20,920
people that are waking up in the next the next morning,

727
00:36:21,159 --> 00:36:23,800
going to bed, waking up the next morning and finding

728
00:36:23,840 --> 00:36:28,159
these weird series of red dots on their bodies, like

729
00:36:28,199 --> 00:36:32,559
in a grid formation. And and it's odd. I joined

730
00:36:32,559 --> 00:36:35,360
this group because when I was a kid, I had

731
00:36:35,400 --> 00:36:39,639
something similar to that on my forearm, which the doctor

732
00:36:39,639 --> 00:36:41,960
thought and it looked like a fish net. It was

733
00:36:42,119 --> 00:36:45,679
They called it fishnet rash, but the doctor thought, you know,

734
00:36:45,719 --> 00:36:47,639
and it was similar to what these people have, and

735
00:36:47,679 --> 00:36:50,119
it seriously looked like a fish net that was on

736
00:36:50,199 --> 00:36:52,079
my on my forearm or when I was a kid

737
00:36:52,079 --> 00:36:55,440
when I was younger, so that was something really wild,

738
00:36:55,559 --> 00:36:58,159
and I thought there's something going on there too. I mean,

739
00:36:58,199 --> 00:37:01,960
these people are having these crazy experiences that are tying

740
00:37:02,000 --> 00:37:06,400
it in with UFO experiences at the same time. So yeah,

741
00:37:06,519 --> 00:37:08,400
check that if you get a chance. Check that group out.

742
00:37:08,440 --> 00:37:09,760
They're up in Massachusetts.

743
00:37:09,760 --> 00:37:10,239
Speaker 2: Interesting.

744
00:37:10,360 --> 00:37:15,400
Speaker 3: It's really fascinating stuff, and it's all, you know, the

745
00:37:15,519 --> 00:37:18,639
very very truthful kinds of things that are going on

746
00:37:18,719 --> 00:37:19,079
up there.

747
00:37:19,400 --> 00:37:23,480
Speaker 2: There's a long history of people who have some type

748
00:37:23,519 --> 00:37:26,719
of experience with the other or the anomalousts being left

749
00:37:26,719 --> 00:37:29,400
physically marked. And obviously it's a big thing in alien

750
00:37:29,400 --> 00:37:33,280
abduction law with scoop marks and implants, but throughout all

751
00:37:33,320 --> 00:37:36,039
of history, people who had contact with supposedly the devil

752
00:37:36,199 --> 00:37:39,000
or people who had contact with you know, other entities

753
00:37:39,039 --> 00:37:43,119
are often supposedly left marked, which I do find I

754
00:37:43,159 --> 00:37:45,559
do find fascinating that there might be some you know,

755
00:37:46,320 --> 00:37:49,239
physical injury, you know, left over. And there's stories in

756
00:37:49,320 --> 00:37:52,519
the UFO field about people being literally injured by.

757
00:37:52,480 --> 00:37:55,719
Speaker 3: And literally dropped like Travis Walton dropped right from the

758
00:37:55,800 --> 00:38:02,719
UFO onto the ground. Coral lignin in y dropped. So yeah,

759
00:38:02,760 --> 00:38:04,920
all those guys, I mean all of these stories that

760
00:38:04,920 --> 00:38:07,760
we've we've grown up with, you know, our generation, right,

761
00:38:07,800 --> 00:38:10,280
it was in search of unsolved.

762
00:38:10,559 --> 00:38:12,199
Speaker 2: In search of is still the greatest parent?

763
00:38:13,119 --> 00:38:15,599
Speaker 3: The theme song alone man, you know.

764
00:38:15,760 --> 00:38:18,440
Speaker 2: And I tell you that the music isn't and the

765
00:38:18,440 --> 00:38:21,880
themes amazing, and also the creepy music they have, and

766
00:38:21,920 --> 00:38:26,079
also that authoritative voice of Lenin Nimoy who ended up

767
00:38:26,079 --> 00:38:28,119
taking over the show. I think originally they planned to

768
00:38:28,159 --> 00:38:32,119
have they planned to have Who's the Twilight Zone Guy

769
00:38:32,199 --> 00:38:35,960
Rod Serling. Some of the early movie versions have Surling

770
00:38:36,039 --> 00:38:38,599
doing it. But speaking of music, it's a perfect segue,

771
00:38:38,599 --> 00:38:39,960
and then we'll come back to what we're talking about.

772
00:38:40,239 --> 00:38:45,400
We had a question from from squatch Mama, who says, okay,

773
00:38:45,519 --> 00:38:49,400
rate the film School score? Didn't John Williams composed it?

774
00:38:49,719 --> 00:38:50,880
That has to be epic?

775
00:38:51,440 --> 00:38:53,239
Speaker 3: Is that was a ten out of ten for the

776
00:38:53,239 --> 00:38:56,599
score because John Williams is my favorite, my favorite composer

777
00:38:56,920 --> 00:38:59,800
bar none. I mean, he's just phenomenal. I mean, god,

778
00:38:59,840 --> 00:39:02,559
the I'm still going at ninety four, ninety or ninety

779
00:39:02,559 --> 00:39:05,480
six or whatever he is now. But yeah, no, it

780
00:39:05,519 --> 00:39:08,280
was a great score, and you know you could tell

781
00:39:08,400 --> 00:39:11,199
it was every time you hear a Williams score, you

782
00:39:11,280 --> 00:39:13,480
know it's John Williams. He's got just got those the

783
00:39:13,599 --> 00:39:17,000
certain strings and the horns and it all ties in together.

784
00:39:17,000 --> 00:39:19,960
But yeah, it was really really great, and so yeah,

785
00:39:20,199 --> 00:39:20,880
very very cool.

786
00:39:21,199 --> 00:39:23,519
Speaker 2: John. John Williams is great and I'm a fan. So

787
00:39:23,559 --> 00:39:28,079
and you're incredibly talented musician yourself, so you're far more

788
00:39:28,119 --> 00:39:32,920
capable of reviewing somebody musically. What I will say, and

789
00:39:32,960 --> 00:39:34,639
I think the score was fine, And what I will

790
00:39:34,679 --> 00:39:39,920
say is I'm not left with any any hummable you know,

791
00:39:40,079 --> 00:39:42,239
bars or hummable sequence from it, the way you are

792
00:39:42,239 --> 00:39:44,960
with Close Encounters or ET. I don't know if you

793
00:39:45,039 --> 00:39:48,360
can remember, Like right now, I'm thinking, yeah, the score

794
00:39:48,480 --> 00:39:50,960
was there, the score was serviceable. I think it was good,

795
00:39:50,960 --> 00:39:55,039
but I don't walk away like I don't have any

796
00:39:55,079 --> 00:39:56,280
of those moments in my head.

797
00:39:56,440 --> 00:39:58,719
Speaker 3: Now you don't, you don't. And it was that score

798
00:39:58,880 --> 00:40:01,239
was pretty much a back ground type thing. They didn't

799
00:40:01,239 --> 00:40:04,159
really embellish anything like they did with Close Encounters with

800
00:40:04,360 --> 00:40:10,079
Us those five tones where the that's that's what we

801
00:40:10,119 --> 00:40:12,719
grew up with. I mean, that's those five tones, right,

802
00:40:13,119 --> 00:40:15,239
that was the whole thing in the movie. It was

803
00:40:15,239 --> 00:40:18,039
they were speaking to us musically, you know, and it

804
00:40:18,079 --> 00:40:21,000
was a beautiful thing. This the score was great, but yeah,

805
00:40:21,000 --> 00:40:24,519
you don't have any hummable melodies to it, unfortunately, you know,

806
00:40:24,599 --> 00:40:26,440
but it was it was a good backdrop score.

807
00:40:28,480 --> 00:40:30,719
Speaker 2: You No, I think it was perfectly serviceable. And maybe

808
00:40:30,760 --> 00:40:33,760
sometimes you need a score that doesn't draw ridiculous attention

809
00:40:33,880 --> 00:40:36,800
to itself, and maybe you sometimes need one that you

810
00:40:36,880 --> 00:40:40,679
and and in fairness to Close Encounters, those five tones,

811
00:40:40,719 --> 00:40:43,000
they're at such a key part of the story. And

812
00:40:43,039 --> 00:40:46,360
I think Spielberg also as much as I'm as Vlay

813
00:40:46,559 --> 00:40:49,719
was disappointed as an adult with the as I mentioned before,

814
00:40:49,840 --> 00:40:53,760
with the very literal final you know, sequence of final

815
00:40:53,840 --> 00:40:58,239
scenes in Close Encounters. They they had that idea to

816
00:40:58,360 --> 00:41:00,599
include the you know, the Disney you know, when you

817
00:41:00,599 --> 00:41:02,920
wish upon a star kind of like it was just

818
00:41:03,039 --> 00:41:06,280
it really was wing in a bottle that score. Obviously,

819
00:41:06,320 --> 00:41:10,880
Spielberg was probably still either that or Rights, but certain

820
00:41:10,960 --> 00:41:14,559
or Jaws probably made my three favorite Spielberg firs, but

821
00:41:14,639 --> 00:41:18,519
certainly my favorite UFO movie. Right and Williams was just

822
00:41:19,079 --> 00:41:22,239
I mean just obviously he wasn't ninety something then, he

823
00:41:22,280 --> 00:41:24,199
was probably like forty something, so he would have been

824
00:41:24,239 --> 00:41:26,079
at his creative peak, so he was.

825
00:41:26,119 --> 00:41:28,280
Speaker 3: And he was also a jazz musician too, so he

826
00:41:28,679 --> 00:41:32,199
like you, yeah, years earlier, he was a jazz musician.

827
00:41:32,280 --> 00:41:35,280
So and I mean, god, John Williams has been around

828
00:41:35,360 --> 00:41:38,400
for a long time and he was so connected with

829
00:41:38,480 --> 00:41:40,800
such the people in the industry. But yeah, he was

830
00:41:40,800 --> 00:41:43,920
a jazz musician beforehand. And then the thing with John

831
00:41:43,920 --> 00:41:46,639
Williams is he could write scores. He was contracted to

832
00:41:46,639 --> 00:41:49,280
write scores for TV shows, so he was, and then

833
00:41:49,360 --> 00:41:51,960
Spielberg found him and then thirty I think this was

834
00:41:52,000 --> 00:41:54,599
his thirtieth movie they've done together, you know, over the

835
00:41:54,639 --> 00:41:57,800
course of his career. Yeah, so really cool stuff. But yeah,

836
00:41:57,800 --> 00:42:00,760
you're right, there was nothing like that was lightning in

837
00:42:00,840 --> 00:42:02,960
a bottle back then. It was just something that was

838
00:42:03,079 --> 00:42:06,159
really like just cutting edge at that particular time, and

839
00:42:06,199 --> 00:42:08,159
they were going with it, you know. And even at

840
00:42:08,199 --> 00:42:10,519
the end with the alien and out close encounters with

841
00:42:10,559 --> 00:42:13,840
the sign language too, which the tones meant the sign

842
00:42:13,960 --> 00:42:17,519
language were that kind of like they were speaking in

843
00:42:17,559 --> 00:42:20,519
those tones. So I like that fact of it. But this,

844
00:42:21,239 --> 00:42:23,440
you know, you know, we're going back to it again.

845
00:42:23,599 --> 00:42:25,599
Speaker 2: But yeah, it's worth talking about a little more. I

846
00:42:25,639 --> 00:42:28,119
think I actually have those tones in the sign language

847
00:42:28,119 --> 00:42:30,679
on one of my favorite muscletops that I were in

848
00:42:30,679 --> 00:42:33,280
the summer. But while we were with the film, there's

849
00:42:33,280 --> 00:42:34,719
something else we didn't talk about, And I think this

850
00:42:34,800 --> 00:42:36,519
is worth touching on because you have and the et

851
00:42:36,679 --> 00:42:38,599
statue behind you reminded me of it, which is such

852
00:42:38,840 --> 00:42:42,760
iconic creature, as were I think the ets in Close Encounters.

853
00:42:42,760 --> 00:42:45,239
I had a flexible doll of that when I was

854
00:42:45,239 --> 00:42:48,920
a kid, Like the closing a spooky look. There was

855
00:42:48,960 --> 00:42:51,800
something about that, probably because it was a physical effect

856
00:42:51,800 --> 00:42:54,559
that actually, even though they're not scary, creped me the

857
00:42:54,599 --> 00:42:57,039
devil out when I was a child. Right, What did

858
00:42:57,079 --> 00:43:02,519
you think about the way the Aliens were were visually

859
00:43:02,559 --> 00:43:05,159
portrayed in this film?

860
00:43:05,800 --> 00:43:09,280
Speaker 3: You know, like everything like everything else, I mean like

861
00:43:09,280 --> 00:43:12,360
like they weren't even like like the Grays. I think

862
00:43:12,599 --> 00:43:16,039
there's another movie that I think is like, probably so

863
00:43:16,119 --> 00:43:19,760
much better than this as far as aliens go is.

864
00:43:19,920 --> 00:43:22,239
Did you ever see that movie? No One Will Save You.

865
00:43:23,559 --> 00:43:24,519
Have you seen that one yet?

866
00:43:24,639 --> 00:43:26,119
Speaker 2: No, I'm aware of it. But is it good?

867
00:43:26,239 --> 00:43:30,119
Speaker 3: Oh, it's really good. It's hardly any dialogue in the film,

868
00:43:30,599 --> 00:43:33,880
but it's an interesting story. But those Grays that are

869
00:43:33,880 --> 00:43:38,119
in that movie and the abduction and how they're interacting

870
00:43:38,159 --> 00:43:42,480
with with the human race, Uh, is very very interesting

871
00:43:42,719 --> 00:43:45,599
ureat that, But I would definitely put that on your

872
00:43:45,639 --> 00:43:46,119
movie list.

873
00:43:46,199 --> 00:43:46,400
Speaker 1: Man.

874
00:43:46,800 --> 00:43:52,920
Speaker 3: It's visually it's incredible too, sound effects wise incredible, it's uh,

875
00:43:53,039 --> 00:43:55,079
it's got a lot of really great moments to it.

876
00:43:55,440 --> 00:43:58,119
But yeah, the aliens you'd hear, I felt were like

877
00:43:58,880 --> 00:44:03,320
very delicate. They were very like, you know, like the typical.

878
00:44:03,000 --> 00:44:08,039
Speaker 2: Gray but origeneric right, Like, there wasn't anything memorable about them.

879
00:44:08,440 --> 00:44:08,960
Speaker 3: Not really.

880
00:44:09,519 --> 00:44:12,039
Speaker 2: I could probably go and buy like some plug the

881
00:44:12,199 --> 00:44:15,320
FX plug in for after effects. That would dropping an

882
00:44:15,360 --> 00:44:18,599
alien that looked like the aliens, And maybe that's the problem.

883
00:44:18,679 --> 00:44:21,800
Maybe they'd gone to a practical model like they had

884
00:44:21,800 --> 00:44:24,119
in etc. And they had in close encounters, there would

885
00:44:24,119 --> 00:44:26,159
have been something special about them. But because they just

886
00:44:26,159 --> 00:44:29,719
looked like another cgi gray alien, you don't walk away

887
00:44:29,800 --> 00:44:32,559
going wow, that was an incredible those aliens in that movie.

888
00:44:33,039 --> 00:44:36,599
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's again that's what left me flat. That was like,

889
00:44:36,679 --> 00:44:39,599
I think that's the probably the most part I was

890
00:44:39,639 --> 00:44:40,719
most disappointed at.

891
00:44:41,000 --> 00:44:41,199
Speaker 1: Yeah.

892
00:44:41,679 --> 00:44:44,079
Speaker 2: Remember they had little girls, I think, like little little

893
00:44:44,320 --> 00:44:49,320
female actresses, like little kids play the aliens. In most

894
00:44:49,599 --> 00:44:52,320
Close Encounters, and so they're these delicate, funny little things

895
00:44:52,320 --> 00:44:55,679
with these ridiculous, you know, kind of spooky outfit on.

896
00:44:55,880 --> 00:44:58,679
But they there was something really like, oh my gosh,

897
00:44:58,679 --> 00:45:01,599
they're real alien. He never think, oh, I'm really saying

898
00:45:01,639 --> 00:45:03,199
in aliens like I'm saying some CGI.

899
00:45:03,559 --> 00:45:05,440
Speaker 3: And I think the other thing too with that, with

900
00:45:05,519 --> 00:45:08,400
Close Encounters too, was like they used a lot of

901
00:45:08,480 --> 00:45:11,119
light diffusion, right, so you didn't you didn't really get

902
00:45:11,159 --> 00:45:15,119
the chance to see them now really like up close.

903
00:45:15,519 --> 00:45:17,599
But I think it's just that because it gives you

904
00:45:17,679 --> 00:45:19,960
the illusion of that thing, which was really cool. And

905
00:45:20,000 --> 00:45:22,440
then of course let's not forget at the end of

906
00:45:22,440 --> 00:45:26,840
that movie that alien was created by Carlo Rambaldi, who

907
00:45:26,880 --> 00:45:31,719
also created et you know, and so and that was

908
00:45:31,800 --> 00:45:34,079
just and that was all man made. It wasn't even

909
00:45:34,119 --> 00:45:37,719
like a CGI thing exactly. It's actually a man made thing.

910
00:45:38,199 --> 00:45:41,760
So yeah, it just you know, I think with that

911
00:45:41,760 --> 00:45:44,320
that movie just was in its you know, in a

912
00:45:44,719 --> 00:45:45,800
class all its own.

913
00:45:46,719 --> 00:45:49,440
Speaker 2: But yeah, that's one thing one of the things I

914
00:45:49,440 --> 00:45:51,360
wish Spielberg would have done it maybe it didn't even

915
00:45:51,360 --> 00:45:53,039
occur to him, was just to put his foot down

916
00:45:53,079 --> 00:45:55,239
and go we're going practical effects for the ets in

917
00:45:55,280 --> 00:45:57,519
this movie. Yeah, and then maybe I would have enjoyed

918
00:45:57,559 --> 00:45:59,639
at least that pop war. So when I saw the

919
00:45:59,639 --> 00:46:01,599
alien and I was like wow instead of like, oh

920
00:46:01,599 --> 00:46:02,880
my gosh, this is just like.

921
00:46:03,039 --> 00:46:08,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, anyway, you're like, what time is?

922
00:46:09,440 --> 00:46:11,440
Speaker 2: Well I was. I mean, like I said, I think

923
00:46:11,440 --> 00:46:16,039
my doing but with that, but because I know, I know,

924
00:46:16,159 --> 00:46:19,119
we can't keep you too late tonight. What what are

925
00:46:19,119 --> 00:46:20,719
the cases have you got coming up?

926
00:46:20,880 --> 00:46:21,039
Speaker 3: Oh?

927
00:46:21,239 --> 00:46:23,360
Speaker 2: Actually I saw you too when you were on like

928
00:46:23,599 --> 00:46:25,679
it was a Fox channel down there for a whole

929
00:46:26,280 --> 00:46:28,400
for a whole news segment, which was super cool that

930
00:46:28,440 --> 00:46:29,119
you guys.

931
00:46:29,159 --> 00:46:31,400
Speaker 3: Really yeah, oh, thank you so much for that. Yeah, No,

932
00:46:31,880 --> 00:46:35,920
it was really cool. Uh yeah. A meteorologist Drew Anderson

933
00:46:36,079 --> 00:46:40,679
in Philadelphia. He he loves what we're doing. And it

934
00:46:40,760 --> 00:46:43,760
was on Fox twenty nine local and it was their

935
00:46:43,880 --> 00:46:46,719
local app that it's a live app and he does

936
00:46:46,760 --> 00:46:49,239
a show called Saturdays and he came all the way

937
00:46:49,280 --> 00:46:50,960
up to Bucks County here and we just hung out

938
00:46:51,000 --> 00:46:53,559
with him for the whole hour and talked about cases.

939
00:46:53,920 --> 00:46:56,800
Dominic did a reading for the one guy that he

940
00:46:56,920 --> 00:47:00,239
was with there at the other reporter Junior, and it

941
00:46:59,920 --> 00:47:02,000
was it was great. So it's really great to be

942
00:47:02,000 --> 00:47:03,880
able to connect with people like that that are in

943
00:47:03,920 --> 00:47:07,719
the industry that are you know, pushing our you know

944
00:47:07,840 --> 00:47:11,119
name forward because they enjoy what we're doing, because they

945
00:47:11,199 --> 00:47:14,400
see that, you know, like you like myself, we're doing

946
00:47:14,440 --> 00:47:18,320
these truth based investigations which are really important, and I

947
00:47:18,320 --> 00:47:20,360
think it's people have to look at these things in

948
00:47:20,400 --> 00:47:23,519
a very you know, a different type of light, you know,

949
00:47:23,639 --> 00:47:27,320
rather than you know, are you know, people saying, are

950
00:47:27,360 --> 00:47:31,599
we are people creating the paranormal themselves? But no, this

951
00:47:31,599 --> 00:47:34,519
this is stuff that people are encountering, These things people

952
00:47:34,599 --> 00:47:37,519
are experiencing. So we're just like you said, I'm not

953
00:47:37,599 --> 00:47:40,360
shoving down beliefs down anybody's throat, but it's just kind

954
00:47:40,360 --> 00:47:42,599
of like, this is what we're seeing, guys, this is

955
00:47:42,639 --> 00:47:45,559
what we're capturing on video. You decide what it is,

956
00:47:45,639 --> 00:47:49,079
you know. But again, it's stuff that you just can't

957
00:47:49,159 --> 00:47:51,079
you can't write this stuff. It just happens.

958
00:47:51,599 --> 00:47:53,760
Speaker 2: And people who I've got the link in the show notes,

959
00:47:53,800 --> 00:47:55,760
but it's easy to find on YouTube. You just paunch

960
00:47:55,800 --> 00:47:58,280
in Eric Mintel Investigates or just go to the show

961
00:47:58,320 --> 00:48:01,599
notes wherever you're watching or listening this and you talked

962
00:48:01,599 --> 00:48:04,360
about Dominic a little bit. It always fascinates me when

963
00:48:04,400 --> 00:48:07,159
he's there to you know, because his psyche, he can

964
00:48:07,199 --> 00:48:10,199
do these kind of of you know, ratings or impressions,

965
00:48:10,239 --> 00:48:11,960
and how does he react when you do the more

966
00:48:12,079 --> 00:48:14,920
UFO stuff, like when he's involved in that, how what

967
00:48:14,920 --> 00:48:16,679
what kind of takeaways does he does?

968
00:48:16,719 --> 00:48:19,159
Speaker 3: He give you a little bit out of his wheelhouse,

969
00:48:19,199 --> 00:48:23,000
but he will definitely tune in on, you know, the

970
00:48:22,679 --> 00:48:26,440
the spiritual aspects of these things of people that are

971
00:48:26,480 --> 00:48:30,440
again connected to the spirit world or to the UFO world.

972
00:48:31,440 --> 00:48:34,400
And again it could be a generational thing too, so

973
00:48:34,440 --> 00:48:37,480
he might be looking down the line at generation after generation.

974
00:48:37,760 --> 00:48:41,039
Are they having these UFO experiences, you know, over the

975
00:48:41,039 --> 00:48:45,320
course of their lifetime. So to get his perspective on

976
00:48:45,480 --> 00:48:48,960
the UFO situation, it's cool too because we're getting one

977
00:48:49,000 --> 00:48:52,760
aspect from you know, one report from somebody, but then

978
00:48:53,159 --> 00:48:56,039
he's reading into it like what is that particular person

979
00:48:56,840 --> 00:49:00,599
got in their own personal lives that's making them, you know,

980
00:49:00,679 --> 00:49:03,679
be attuned to this type of energy, you know. And again,

981
00:49:03,719 --> 00:49:06,119
at the end of the day, we're all energy. It's

982
00:49:06,199 --> 00:49:09,480
all about these frequencies that we're on and maybe that's

983
00:49:09,519 --> 00:49:11,719
the maybe that's the whole thing that connects everything, is

984
00:49:11,760 --> 00:49:15,360
these frequencies. And that's again why Spielberg had those tones

985
00:49:15,880 --> 00:49:18,679
in in close encounters, the musical aspects of this thing,

986
00:49:19,840 --> 00:49:22,239
you know, speaking in a musical language, which was I

987
00:49:22,280 --> 00:49:26,400
thought was so cool. There's an Indian uh. There's an

988
00:49:26,440 --> 00:49:30,199
Indian uh tabla artist. He's a drummer, and just I

989
00:49:30,199 --> 00:49:33,360
mean just the rhythms that this guy's got, it's incredible.

990
00:49:33,360 --> 00:49:36,760
There are like very intricate, mathematical type of rhythms. And

991
00:49:36,760 --> 00:49:39,840
I'm thinking to myself, maybe one day and he with

992
00:49:39,840 --> 00:49:43,480
the way he's doing these, he goes like that, and

993
00:49:43,480 --> 00:49:45,800
I'm thinking of myself, one day, what if we have

994
00:49:45,880 --> 00:49:49,519
a language like that, you know, where we're speaking in rhythms,

995
00:49:50,159 --> 00:49:53,280
you know, and not even like vocals anymore. We're speaking

996
00:49:53,360 --> 00:49:57,079
in these tones or in these particular rhythms. Because you know,

997
00:49:57,280 --> 00:50:00,519
as Dave Brubeck, my my mentor in ja As said,

998
00:50:00,840 --> 00:50:04,840
you know, we're all tied together by one thing, the heartbeat.

999
00:50:05,119 --> 00:50:07,519
It's something that you the first time you hear your

1000
00:50:07,519 --> 00:50:10,360
mother's heartbeat, and it's the last thing you hear before

1001
00:50:10,360 --> 00:50:13,079
you die. But it's one of these things that everybody

1002
00:50:13,159 --> 00:50:16,679
is maybe connected with this heartbeat and that rhythm is

1003
00:50:16,719 --> 00:50:20,480
the universal language, not melody, but rhythm. We could all

1004
00:50:20,480 --> 00:50:23,079
feel that rhythm. So I think having those kind of

1005
00:50:23,119 --> 00:50:25,639
musical tones and that was really cool. And I think

1006
00:50:25,679 --> 00:50:30,280
that's another aspect of the paranormal, you know. Could it

1007
00:50:30,320 --> 00:50:32,920
be that we're on these people are on these different

1008
00:50:32,920 --> 00:50:37,719
wavelengths and experiencing all of these different you know, dynamics.

1009
00:50:38,119 --> 00:50:41,119
And that's what I find fascinating about the whole just

1010
00:50:41,119 --> 00:50:44,199
the whole paranormal genre in general. It's like we're all

1011
00:50:44,239 --> 00:50:48,280
trying to find the truth to that, but everybody's having

1012
00:50:48,320 --> 00:50:51,840
It's like a snowflake. Everybody's having these different experiences. They're

1013
00:50:51,880 --> 00:50:52,719
not all the same.

1014
00:50:53,920 --> 00:50:56,519
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's interesting you bring up music. Somebody else said here,

1015
00:50:56,679 --> 00:50:59,800
math is music, and math is the way that music

1016
00:50:59,880 --> 00:51:02,960
is the language in close encounters. Math is the language

1017
00:51:03,000 --> 00:51:05,320
in Disclosure Day. I have a very good friend of mine,

1018
00:51:05,360 --> 00:51:07,679
Doug Skinner, who you really like, is an incredibly talented

1019
00:51:07,760 --> 00:51:10,639
musician as well. He's based out of upstate New York now,

1020
00:51:11,639 --> 00:51:14,239
but he wrote a wonderful book, Music from Elsewhere where

1021
00:51:14,239 --> 00:51:18,119
he actually was able to and he's got an accompanying

1022
00:51:18,159 --> 00:51:21,280
album on band camp. With music which was supposedly written

1023
00:51:21,320 --> 00:51:23,719
by people you know, communicating with the dead, or the

1024
00:51:23,800 --> 00:51:26,039
music the fair he's made, or you know, music from

1025
00:51:26,079 --> 00:51:29,199
the sky people. It's fascinating. So I do think you're

1026
00:51:29,239 --> 00:51:31,880
onto something with the music thing just quickly too. When

1027
00:51:31,920 --> 00:51:34,079
you were talking that it was something that just flashed

1028
00:51:34,079 --> 00:51:37,599
into my head for some reason. And this might be

1029
00:51:37,880 --> 00:51:40,880
might be one of the reasons this movie doesn't resonate

1030
00:51:40,920 --> 00:51:43,280
the way Close Encounters did. Keep I can't leave Disclosure

1031
00:51:43,360 --> 00:51:47,559
Day alone for some reason. But RELs, I think it

1032
00:51:47,639 --> 00:51:50,320
was still a mystery, right, Like when Close Encounters came

1033
00:51:50,320 --> 00:51:53,320
out in the seventies, there wasn't really this There wasn't

1034
00:51:53,320 --> 00:51:58,960
this general consensus to a yourphological mythology there the way

1035
00:51:59,000 --> 00:52:02,639
there was from the late seventies through the eighties into

1036
00:52:02,639 --> 00:52:06,880
the nineties. But so so when Spielberg makes that film,

1037
00:52:06,920 --> 00:52:09,920
it's still a mystery, what is this? Right, But when

1038
00:52:10,159 --> 00:52:13,679
Spielberg makes Disclosure Day, it's a given. Oh, everybody knows

1039
00:52:13,679 --> 00:52:17,079
the Roswell story, everybody knows about alien productions. Everybody knows

1040
00:52:17,480 --> 00:52:20,280
during parenthesis that the government knows everything and is keeping

1041
00:52:20,320 --> 00:52:22,920
all the secrets. So here, all he's left to do

1042
00:52:23,199 --> 00:52:26,159
is just to say the mythology is all correct, and

1043
00:52:26,280 --> 00:52:29,559
oh it's a wonderful day. Finally the secret's a released. Well,

1044
00:52:30,320 --> 00:52:35,119
Close Encounters is at an experiential level for the UFO witness,

1045
00:52:35,360 --> 00:52:38,079
you're kind of you're traveling through them finding out what

1046
00:52:38,159 --> 00:52:40,960
this revelationary thing's going to be. So I think in

1047
00:52:41,000 --> 00:52:43,880
the seventies there was more space to make a movie

1048
00:52:43,880 --> 00:52:46,360
that dealt with it, perhaps in a more interesting way. Today,

1049
00:52:46,440 --> 00:52:48,960
perhaps that's what this movie is, the proof of there's

1050
00:52:49,000 --> 00:52:51,199
no space anymore to deal with this. It hasn't been

1051
00:52:51,239 --> 00:52:52,239
done one hundred times.

1052
00:52:52,400 --> 00:52:55,639
Speaker 3: I totally agree. I totally agree. You know, you're talking

1053
00:52:55,639 --> 00:52:58,320
about the maths music. You know, here's the other thing too.

1054
00:52:58,599 --> 00:53:01,920
I've never really had any type of lessons. I had

1055
00:53:02,000 --> 00:53:05,159
maybe one year's worth of lessons, So you know, I

1056
00:53:05,159 --> 00:53:07,480
could just sit down and play. I could hear something

1057
00:53:07,840 --> 00:53:10,079
play and I don't really read music that well either,

1058
00:53:10,119 --> 00:53:12,239
but to sit down and play. So you could say

1059
00:53:12,280 --> 00:53:15,400
that maybe is a paranormal aspect of this, and why

1060
00:53:15,480 --> 00:53:20,039
I love the combination of jazz and paranormal because we

1061
00:53:20,119 --> 00:53:22,079
do some things sometimes that I don't even know where

1062
00:53:22,079 --> 00:53:25,559
it came from. You know, it's amazing so the two

1063
00:53:25,599 --> 00:53:28,840
things are really interconnected there, and come to find out

1064
00:53:29,360 --> 00:53:33,000
later there are a lot of musicians that have had

1065
00:53:33,199 --> 00:53:36,679
UFO encounters and that are all like you know, that

1066
00:53:36,760 --> 00:53:40,239
have had these experiences, which is really fascinating.

1067
00:53:40,320 --> 00:53:42,119
Speaker 2: That is fascinating. A good friend of mine and a

1068
00:53:42,119 --> 00:53:43,800
friend of the show who's been on a number of

1069
00:53:43,800 --> 00:53:46,800
times in the past, Horace Smith, who's professor Emmeris of

1070
00:53:46,880 --> 00:53:50,119
astronomy and physics at Michigan State University, just reminded us

1071
00:53:50,159 --> 00:53:53,800
that the famous astronomy kepler also calculated the music of

1072
00:53:53,840 --> 00:53:59,880
the spheres. Absolutely, this connection with music and science. Yeah, somehow,

1073
00:53:59,880 --> 00:54:02,440
I'm just wondering quickly because I know we're almost out

1074
00:54:02,440 --> 00:54:04,440
of time. We've got to another question from squatch Mama.

1075
00:54:04,480 --> 00:54:07,039
How does a movie compare to Close Encounters? The movie

1076
00:54:07,119 --> 00:54:08,960
left me eye wide with wonder Well, I think we've

1077
00:54:09,039 --> 00:54:12,159
kind of touched on that right, Like I great, Close

1078
00:54:12,239 --> 00:54:15,280
Encounters isn't a phenomenal movie which leaves you I think,

1079
00:54:15,960 --> 00:54:18,599
you know, Iwid, As you said squatch MoMA, I think

1080
00:54:18,639 --> 00:54:21,199
this one, at least for me, Eric, because I already

1081
00:54:21,280 --> 00:54:23,199
knew the whole story, I just hadn't seen it put

1082
00:54:23,199 --> 00:54:25,599
together this way by Spielberg. There's nothing new in there

1083
00:54:25,639 --> 00:54:27,559
that's going to hit you with wonder this, you know.

1084
00:54:27,880 --> 00:54:31,239
Speaker 3: No, no, not at all. Yeah, now, And I think

1085
00:54:31,320 --> 00:54:32,800
just the thing is, we just got to keep going

1086
00:54:32,840 --> 00:54:36,880
with our own research going, and you know, going with

1087
00:54:37,000 --> 00:54:39,920
our gut, you know, and really what is going on

1088
00:54:39,960 --> 00:54:42,800
out there, and really having you know, we're getting these experiences.

1089
00:54:42,800 --> 00:54:45,760
Here's the other thing too, we're both of us, you

1090
00:54:45,800 --> 00:54:47,960
and I both are those guys that are boots on

1091
00:54:48,000 --> 00:54:51,000
the ground. We're going to the site. We're going to

1092
00:54:51,039 --> 00:54:53,800
those locations. We're not doing the research behind the computer.

1093
00:54:54,159 --> 00:54:57,280
We're there. I mean, I've been. I always tell people

1094
00:54:57,400 --> 00:55:00,760
in my presentations that I have. There's two things. One

1095
00:55:00,840 --> 00:55:03,639
of seeing a video and then actually being on site

1096
00:55:03,960 --> 00:55:09,400
where that video occurred. And it was this restaurant in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania,

1097
00:55:09,519 --> 00:55:12,679
where on the video you see a chair bolt out

1098
00:55:12,679 --> 00:55:15,320
from the table, you know, like this paranormal energy, right,

1099
00:55:15,559 --> 00:55:18,480
But there's a there's a wall there too, So you

1100
00:55:18,519 --> 00:55:20,280
could say, looking at the video, there was a guy

1101
00:55:20,320 --> 00:55:23,679
behind the wall pushing this chair out. But now when

1102
00:55:23,719 --> 00:55:26,000
we got on site, that was not the case at all,

1103
00:55:26,119 --> 00:55:28,639
because I looked, I went right to that wall. There's

1104
00:55:28,719 --> 00:55:30,719
no way it could have been anybody there because there

1105
00:55:30,760 --> 00:55:33,280
was a lower wall that was there and it went

1106
00:55:33,360 --> 00:55:35,840
back and I there was a table there as well,

1107
00:55:36,239 --> 00:55:39,159
so you could we did an experiment. I stood there

1108
00:55:39,159 --> 00:55:40,920
and there was no way you could be not on

1109
00:55:41,360 --> 00:55:44,199
the security camera, so that was really cool. And then

1110
00:55:44,239 --> 00:55:46,320
there was an orbit that came over into that same

1111
00:55:46,360 --> 00:55:50,280
thing and threw sugar container packet, which was crazy. So

1112
00:55:51,400 --> 00:55:55,159
you know, you can't really you can't really say it

1113
00:55:55,199 --> 00:55:57,880
looking at a video that and then debunk it. You

1114
00:55:57,960 --> 00:55:59,960
have to be on site. And that was incredible. Same

1115
00:56:00,079 --> 00:56:03,960
thing with Elcorn which we talked about as well, and

1116
00:56:04,000 --> 00:56:05,880
a lot of these other things. So going to these

1117
00:56:05,920 --> 00:56:08,679
locations I think is really important. So we've got a

1118
00:56:08,679 --> 00:56:11,559
lot of videos coming up where we're actually I mean

1119
00:56:11,599 --> 00:56:14,239
we are always on site. But we've got a bigfoot

1120
00:56:14,320 --> 00:56:17,000
video coming up next month that we're doing Bigfoot in

1121
00:56:17,000 --> 00:56:21,039
the Pocono's. We're also doing another video about UFO's Bucks

1122
00:56:21,039 --> 00:56:25,599
County and another UFO video about UFOs in the Lord's

1123
00:56:25,679 --> 00:56:29,559
Valley of the Poconos in near Stroudsburg, which there's been

1124
00:56:29,599 --> 00:56:31,559
a lot of sightings and people are getting a lot

1125
00:56:31,559 --> 00:56:35,239
of video footage. But this Bigfoot video that we're gonna

1126
00:56:35,239 --> 00:56:38,559
be doing in next month. I've gotten a lot of

1127
00:56:38,599 --> 00:56:41,599
people that are saying that a lot of testimony from

1128
00:56:41,599 --> 00:56:44,559
people from just today. I put out a thing about,

1129
00:56:44,639 --> 00:56:47,440
you know, doing this video, and everybody came out with

1130
00:56:47,519 --> 00:56:50,159
some sightings that they've had, and even a lot of

1131
00:56:50,440 --> 00:56:54,599
a police officer who also is a bigfoot researcher has

1132
00:56:54,639 --> 00:56:56,840
some reports that he's going to share with me as well.

1133
00:56:57,320 --> 00:56:59,480
So it's interesting time to be in Dean. I mean,

1134
00:56:59,519 --> 00:57:02,599
we're gonna great period. Our business is couldn't even be

1135
00:57:02,719 --> 00:57:05,400
could not be better in the paranormal world.

1136
00:57:06,679 --> 00:57:09,960
Speaker 2: Man, you do such incredible stuff. I love Eric Minto Investigations.

1137
00:57:09,960 --> 00:57:13,440
It always so anentertaining and appreciate that. No, just great.

1138
00:57:13,760 --> 00:57:16,079
I've got the links again where people can watch that,

1139
00:57:16,199 --> 00:57:17,719
or the link where they can watch I've also got

1140
00:57:17,760 --> 00:57:19,639
a link to your Amazon saw it in the show

1141
00:57:19,679 --> 00:57:22,159
notes where people can go and get your wonderful books.

1142
00:57:22,199 --> 00:57:24,320
But is there anything you want to point people at

1143
00:57:24,360 --> 00:57:25,519
or anything else you want to.

1144
00:57:25,559 --> 00:57:30,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, they could go onto my website too. It's Ericmantelinvestigates

1145
00:57:30,840 --> 00:57:33,960
dot org and we have a big paranormal convention. If

1146
00:57:33,960 --> 00:57:36,400
some of your listeners are out here in Pennsylvania. We've

1147
00:57:36,400 --> 00:57:40,440
got a paranormal convention happening on October fourth, first annual
