Starting point is 00:02:07 From the beginning of recorded time, men have been seen unexplainable things in the sky. And there's no reason to doubt they saw something. The question is, was what they saw Lili there, and what was it they really saw? There is nothing to hide. There's nothing to hide at all. What a week with Disclosure Day, Garrett says, yes.
Starting point is 00:02:48 Have you guys seen it? Have you seen it? I know it opens today, tonight in the United States. I had the opportunity to see it two days ago. I did put kind of a like initial reactions video up on our social media and YouTube channel, which is what you're watching right now, my YouTube channel. But spoiler free. So you can go back and watch that in my shorts right here on the channel.
Starting point is 00:03:13 channel. No spoilers. Do not put any spoilers in the chat tonight, guys. I'll tease a little bit. I'll tell you a little bit about my experience, seeing the movie and all that. But what I want you to do is tune in Sunday night because we're going to be doing a very special Sunday night live stream normal time, 4 p.m. Eastern Standard 9 p.m. UK time. And we're going to do a complete full spoiler review of Disclosure Day with I'll tell you at the end of the show but first
Starting point is 00:03:50 I want to cover something that just happened within the last you know four to five hours the third trench or batch of UFO files and videos have officially released through
Starting point is 00:04:05 war.gov and the pursue effort that they're doing through the White House and war.gov and all that stuff, it dropped. And people are not happy. People are not happy. It's not good. It's not good.
Starting point is 00:04:29 But we'll get into it. I found a few little nuggets that I think we can pull out of the shit and kind of go over with you guys. But it has become abundantly clear to me that this is all kind of bullshit. um don't trump does not give two fs about UFO transparency um his administration does not uh this is a complete joke to those involved with the pursuit program and uh and i would include arrow in that too and uh yeah yeah um if this is the kind of stuff we're going to get i don't want it
Starting point is 00:05:13 I just don't want it. Yeah, it sucks. It just sucks. That's all I'm going to say. That's all I'm going to say. But being the optimist I am, I will pull a few things out for you guys and we'll go over it with you tonight. That's for sure. What are you guys drinking?
Starting point is 00:05:31 I've once again got with me tonight the Highlander Fine Al's Farm Brewery. It's like a red ruby ale. It is delish, multi, sweet, little nutty. Love it. So cheers to you guys. Let me know what you're drinking in the chat for Disclosure Day. I'd like to know. Jamie Tree Spirit, I'm drinking a New York hard cider, and it is delicious.
Starting point is 00:05:56 Fly Creek hard cider. Yum. Let me a good cider for sure. Magners is my go-to, classic Magners. I also really like crabby's ginger beer. Those are really good, too. If we're talking like non-bears and whatnot, those are my favorite ciders in ginger beers for sure. Dawn's got some wine. Garrett's got a Corona and some salted popcorn. Yo,
Starting point is 00:06:22 you are killing it, man. That sounds like the perfect kind of pre-dinner. I love it. Water after a day spent in the air back up tomorrow morning, so I stay sober. Very, very fair, Guillem. 60-64, love it, Skywatch. Love it, love it, love it. I'm guessing Andrew Berger has a white claw or two or three or four or five, one for each finger on one hand. Heart. I'm just kidding, buddy. I'm just kidding. And I'm going to tease a little bit of disclosure day after we watch this television special, the UFO experience, and then we're going to end with, I guess, kind of, you know, what's to come? What is to come with this Disclosure Day review and whatnot?
Starting point is 00:07:10 So, yeah, yeah. Let's get to the UFO file. I made this infographic for you guys to kind of synthesize some of this for us. Here we go, guys. Pursue the Transparency Initiative through war.gov. In this batch, batch three, we got a total of 72 total files that were released, and that includes videos, audio files, documents, images. And we're adding to this list artwork. And there's a reason for that. a lot of these videos and I guess images and some of the files were like computer graphic
Starting point is 00:07:53 renderings of accounts and whatnot, which is cool when like you're not dealing with an official government file release. So that was a little weird and I did not like that one bit. So make of that what you will. But we got six videos that were. released through the FBI and a couple other places. Two audio files from NASA, 48 documents from a bunch of different agencies, CIA, FBI, Department of Defense, NASA,
Starting point is 00:08:29 and a couple from I'm not sure what the other ones were, to be honest, but we got 16 images and I've got them up on the screen here for you guys. 36 files came from the FBI this time, which is kind of the majority of what going to cover with you. 14 files from the CIA,
Starting point is 00:08:48 14 from the Department of War slash defense, six files from NASA and two files from various others. This is our, I guess you could say, second to the lowest batch so far, not a ton of stuff. The first batch we got back in May,
Starting point is 00:09:07 there was 160 total files. So that was the biggest one. We had 64, files in batch 2 and batch 3, 72 files. But I would say the quality went down dramatically, even if the
Starting point is 00:09:24 amount went up a little bit, as you shall see very shortly. And this makes guys for a total of 296 files that have been released across all three batches. So there you go. A little bit of the
Starting point is 00:09:40 synthesized information on a lot of this stuff for you. but let's kind of break down some of I guess some of the stuff that came out here I have my notes written down so bear with me as I kind of go through this with you guys standout cases involve a series of orb sightings
Starting point is 00:10:03 in the northeastern U.S. that became significant enough for the FBI to conduct an on-site investigation. So we're talking like Mulder and Scully going out there to investigate orbs. This is pretty crazy. According to the released files, witnesses documented reoccurring orb activity over several years near a secluded pond, near a secluded pond. And there is video. So I am going to show that video. You know what? Let's just do it now. Let's get to that video. So bear with me. I'm going to share screen here for a second and pull up the war.gov website. And let's see here.
Starting point is 00:10:44 Orbs Over Pond from 2024. So let's click on this guy. A little bit about this before I show the video. In October 2024, at approximately 1851 local time in the northeastern U.S., and eyewitnesses observed a light source below the horizon hovering above a pond at an estimated distance of 2,700 feet. The luminous object resembled a plasma-like sphere, intermittently changing shape in luminous. At times, the primary light source appeared to separate into smaller luminous points.
Starting point is 00:11:20 A luminous point below the primary source hovered just above the water and did not appear consistent with a surface reflection. The object remained generally stationary for approximately 45 minutes before disappearing. That's a long time. Eye witness did not hear any sound from the object. The video was captured by a private citizen on an iPhone. and subsequently analyzed and authenticated by the U.S. government via the FBI. So, okay, here we go. Let's go ahead and watch this orb over the pond.
Starting point is 00:11:56 It's kind of long, so I'll see how this goes, but what do you guys think? Here, let me make it a little bigger. I mean, this literally could be anything, obviously. Swamp gas, Keel says. I mean, while I'm seeing a luminous sphere, it looks a little amorphous as well when they zoomed in a little bit. So I don't know if we're actually dealing with like a plasma sphere per se. And then it almost looks like there's something underneath it in a few frames. however, that might just be the pond.
Starting point is 00:13:01 See, this is crazy that within this FBI batch of videos that we're getting citizen videos now shot from iPhones. We're not talking gun camera footage from the Navy or the Air Force or Reaper drones in military installations or war zones. We're literally now talking about orbs over a pond by a citizen. I don't know if that decreases the value and the credibility of what we're getting in these releases. What do you guys think? Bald lightning, Andrew Berger says.
Starting point is 00:13:43 It's not the worst video I've ever seen. But again, it's like many UFO videos. It's a white blob blob in the sky. Even more potato camera work. Armanda says, just wait. We're going to get the potato in a minute. where's the Department of Energy Footage Skywatch signal
Starting point is 00:14:09 says yeah good question DOE was involved with the second badge I think but I don't think we got like anything from them this time not really a reference point to be able to compare anything to you Don says agreed agreed like they're saying a pond I don't see any like indication of that
Starting point is 00:14:28 unless I were to see a reflection of this or orb on it could be a bag or a balloon Jamie Tree Spirit says, yeah. Literally could be anything. All right. I think I've seen enough. How about you guys?
Starting point is 00:14:51 Seen enough of that one? Okay. What else do we have here? Mother orbs. Interesting. Government investigators reportedly observed unusual electromagnetic disturbances, GPS interference, and radiation anomalies associated with some of these events.
Starting point is 00:15:19 that's okay I'm like that that's really close encounters E another particularly intriguing case details federal officials witnessing large
Starting point is 00:15:32 orange mother orbs over Colorado that appeared to release smaller red orbs before disappearing let's watch the second orb video that they had on on the website

Here's the second one that is a little bit more interesting when it comes to the orbs, guys. Am I still on screen? Okay, good. In July of 2025, at approximately 2,100 local time in the northeastern U.S.,
Starting point is 00:17:50 and eyewitness observed an intense bright light in their backyard as they parked their car upon returning home from work. The light was hovering approximately 25 feet off the ground below a tree line near the center of their backyard at an estimated distance of 90 feet. That's not too far. That's pretty close. The eyewitness exited their vehicle briefly before retrieving their phone to record the event. The spouse of the witness came outside to assess this situation. Spouse also witnessed the light describing it as a brilliant red sphere, about one meter in diameter. The center of the red sphere appeared to be a white plasma sun
Starting point is 00:18:24 about the size of a basketball. The orb slowly rose and moved to the left and both eyewitnesses observed a second identical orb hovering above the other orb. Okay. All right, let's give this a watch. No sound
Starting point is 00:18:45 on the video for some reason, which why is there no sound? There should be sound. This is shot on an iPhone. Huh, little better. in terms of quality, but again shot from an iPhone of a citizen yet investigated by the FBI. Come on, come on. Interesting.
Starting point is 00:19:27 Why are you panning to the ground? Why would you do that? I don't know. I don't know. iPhone suck. Yeah, Andrew, the location, what I like about this video is, you know, I do believe this is like 90 feet away. because we have the trees as reference. So now we can kind of deduce from the height of the trees,
Starting point is 00:19:52 the distance of the trees, from the backyard, stuff like that to see, you know, approximately how far back the objects are, how big they might be, what speed they're traveling, all that sort of stuff. The FBI would eventually be able to investigate and hopefully deduce what it was or wasn't.
Starting point is 00:20:11 But we are getting nothing, no metadata, no actual, like, you know, exact time. We have the witness testimony, which is great. I'm all about that. But we don't, like, what is the purpose of this? But why, why are we seeing this? I guess it's transparency. But the fact that we're now moving on to like citizen UFO videos,
Starting point is 00:20:37 cool, but there's a hundred thousand million of those right here on YouTube for you to watch and on TikTok. and some of them are way better than this and have much more information than this. So, I don't know, it's just frustrating. It's frustrating. And honestly, guys, those are the best two videos in this release.
Starting point is 00:20:58 I'm not kidding you. There are other videos that are literally digital recreations and renderings that were made. And they consider those videos. crazy stuff crazy crazy stuff a few more things
Starting point is 00:21:22 that were released in here we had the NASA involvement again and got some audio from them yet again which is pretty cool to hear some of these things I don't have any of them with me tonight guys this is a very
Starting point is 00:21:39 raw kind of breakdown for you tonight Hopefully I can go more in depth with Suzanne in the future on this drop in this release. But I've honestly been busy all day. So I haven't really been able to look at a lot of this stuff. So I do apologize. But stay tuned. You know, we'll look at it and hopefully have some more information.
Starting point is 00:22:01 But from the NASA material, one of the more interesting additions is a newly released NASA-related audio file involving astronaut Gordon Cooper, discussing UFO sightings in a 1962 interview with Walter Cronkite. Cooper was one of the most outspoken astronauts regarding UFOs, and he repeatedly claimed military pilots had encountered unexplained objects. So while release one focused more on Apollo era transcripts and astronaut observations, this release, release three, expands that historical record with actual audio material, given listeners a direct glimpse into how astronauts discussed these incidents, decades ago. Now, we did get other audio throughout the releases as well. But one of the
Starting point is 00:22:48 these is like an hour long. So I'm looking forward to kind of digging into that. That'll be fun. Daniel says, I don't think we can trust the government to tell us the truth. They've been lying for over 80 years. Yeah. Yeah, this is the big struggle, man, that's going on. I mean, this can even relate to Disclosure Day. You know, we we have never. trust the government when it comes to UFOs. And now it's all we talk about, whether it's congressional UFO hearings or Arrow, the Pentagon UFO office and all that. So it's been a weird kind of contradictory era of UFO discourse since like 2017. And personally, I'm not a big fan of it. Clearly, I'm riding the wave and taking the journey with you guys. But it's not that you follow.
Starting point is 00:23:40 I crave. I mean, is this fun? Be honest. Is what we're covering right now, these UFO file releases, is this interesting to you? Or like, does it stretch your mind or your imagination?
Starting point is 00:23:57 Or like, does it, is this something you would show to people to be like, hey, UFOs are real? Let me know. I'm actually genuinely interested in your reaction to everything going on in the UFOs.
Starting point is 00:24:10 world since 2017. Have we moved the needle, as they say? Has anything changed? What do you think? Let me know in the live chat. Let me know in the comments below this video after we're done. I'm genuinely curious. Are we any better since 2017?
Starting point is 00:24:38 Okay. UFO fatigue, Skywatch says, I'm with you, buddy. I'm with you. So some NASA stuff. There was a case out of Zimbabwe and not the one we're thinking of, not the Rua 1994 contact case. But this file concerns a 2008 CIA investigation, interesting, into a disc-shaped object reported over Harare International Airport in Zimbabwe. Witnesses described a hovering object with rotating lights underneath and beams projecting downward. What makes this notable is that the CIA document explicitly consider two possibilities,
Starting point is 00:25:22 an advanced foreign reconnaissance platform or something truly a novelist. Those are two vastly different explanations, if you ask me, with a lot of range in between the spectrum is real. The government ultimately reached no conclusion. This is one of the few cases in all three of these batch releases involving an international airport and a structured craft rather than just lights her orb. So that file's interesting. That's one worth checking out, guys, for sure.
Starting point is 00:25:55 I'll try to locate it after this and put it in the show notes, unless someone wants to kind of go scour for it now and put it in the chat. I guess look through the CIA stuff for the Zimbabwe case. But let's move to another one, the potato-shaped object. I knew we would bring potatoes back. This is interesting. A strange 2022 military setting near Colorado Springs involved what witnesses described as an angular, asymmetrical, potato-shaped object. Investigators initially suggested sunlight reflecting off snow in clouds, but Arrow later classified that explanation as, quote, low confidence and left the case unresolved.
Starting point is 00:26:42 it's one of the rare examples where an official explanation was proposed and then effectively walked back after that. So interesting, I guess. They were like, yeah, cloud. It was cloud. Cloud be what it is be. And then they're like, wait, no, never mind. It's not. It's a flying potato from Zeta reticul.
Starting point is 00:27:10 I don't know, guys. I'm trying here, trying to make this stuff interesting. So, even throughout the files, I notice there's a lot of orb stuff, a lot, a lot of orb stuff and a lot of civilian stuff, which is, again, interesting. It's interesting. I guess we should be kind of happy or thankful that they're now looking at civilian stuff, not just the military videos. and, you know, we want to be a part of this. So I guess we're kind of getting it when it comes to like the FBI and whatnot. But yeah, I don't know.
Starting point is 00:27:53 I, again, this is just my initial reactions to this drop. I have not really been able to look into it yet, guys. So I will go through it this week and hopefully be able to find some more stuff about it with you guys. But a lot of orb stuff from what I'm hearing and learning from other people who have kind of dug into it. But I guess to kind of wrap up the UFO file release story, the first release really kind of gave us a lot of historical stuff, right? A lot of really old stuff dating back to the 40s, whether it's like declassified files and, you know, studies on UFOs through NASA, through, you know, different intelligence agencies and what. not. So we got a lot of historical stuff in the first one. Probably more than Arrow has ever done. So that's cool.
Starting point is 00:28:53 The second release gave us more military stuff. So that was pretty cool to see more military stuff involved in that one, which was interesting. But this third release really gave us something different. And that's civilian stuff and ongoing investigations by the FBI, mostly. So I'm looking forward to how the FBI is kind of getting involved in actively investigating. Now, when we look at Arrow, they are not so much an investigation per se. You know, they're gathering all these things, but, you know, they're such a small group, small office. They got to work with other agencies on this stuff. And it looks like they're now really working in tandem with the FBI. So the FBI are the ones actually putting like agents out.
Starting point is 00:29:41 there to investigate. So that's good. That's cool. I really like that. I really like that. So I hope that continues. And look, the majority of stuff in this release came from the FBI. So put two and two together.
Starting point is 00:29:58 I like what the FBI is doing with this. So I will continue to follow that thread and see what they come up with. While these videos were nothing to write home about and didn't change anything, this was not Disclosure Day. it was cool. It was cool to see the FBI kind of putting their stuff out there. And a lot of it's orbiobs. So we'll see where that's going.
Starting point is 00:30:24 We will see where that is going. Nice to see the FBI involved. He says, yeah. I like it. Potatoes are spud where I live. Spud ships are regularly seen over fish and chip shops. Far Cullum says.
Starting point is 00:30:43 I love it. I love that. I'm just going up through the chat here, guys. Forgive me. They'll never release the good stuff, Andrew Berger says. Yeah. I mean, what really kind of put the nail in the coffin for me when it comes to this pursuit initiative and what they're doing
Starting point is 00:31:07 was when Batch 2 came out. And Anna Paulina Luna, the head of that declassification, whatever thing, federal task force thing, she would go on to say in interviews, yeah, this was the meat and potatoes of this stuff we've seen that defied physics that was really anomalous and could change humanity if it got out there
Starting point is 00:31:31 of what it could be. And she said that that stuff was in batch two. And then we all saw batch two and we're like, are you kidding me? And now batch three. This is the most disappointing one yet. So I think this is it. I don't know if we're going to get any more batches or releases.
Starting point is 00:31:51 There was a video that Jeremy Corp Bell put out. So if people have watched Michael Lozowski's movie, Sleeping Dog, then they have an idea of what it is that 100 journalists now have. If they don't come out with the next drop having to do with reverse engineering, non-human intelligence craft, and if they don't address or begin to address biologics, then they saw in Sleeping Dog the file systems. That's not just in my hands anymore. That's not just in George Knapp's hands. They have promised transparency on what they know on UAP.
Starting point is 00:32:39 David Grush went up in front of Congress with his hand to the country, to the globe, and to whatever he believes in. And he told the truth. And he told you, not just UFOs are real, that we have been reverse engineering them, that we've been trying to for decades, and that there were pilots, biologics, he said, non-human intelligent beings.
Starting point is 00:33:06 Now, if that's true, and if you believe him, our government, in parts, has that information, It is time to tell the American public the truth. The movie Sleeping Dog was literally born from the resistance to the truth. It was born because your government, our government, many other governments, such as the Five Eyes Alliance, has chosen silence over transparency that is going to end. But the problem is how? You got to get ahead of it.
Starting point is 00:33:46 The White House has to get ahead of it. Our president can order the release of UAP files, but he needs to hold the CIA and other organizations that have the data information and knowledge accountable. It's not good enough to say it. You have to hold them accountable because you don't want to be a president that has lied to just like Clinton was.
Starting point is 00:34:12 So that's what's up. that's the score that's the truth sleeping dog you see in there what is possible but it's up to them because of you
Starting point is 00:34:24 to make it happen if pursue and the government and DOD and ND and NDI and CIA if they're not going to release the good stuff I'm going to release it
Starting point is 00:34:40 and they're not releasing the good stuff So it's time for Jeremy Corbell to, you know, put his money where's mouth is. And I do believe he probably has stuff that that is vastly more compelling and anomalous than this shit. So it's time. You said it. Make it happen, Jeremy. And thank you.
Starting point is 00:35:06 Thank you for putting yourself out there. We know you have a lot of stuff that has to do with not. non-human biologics and videos that are as clear as day and a lot of stuff. So let's see it. This third batch was profoundly disappointing. So let's see it. I hope that comes soon from Jeremy Corpo. But what I want to end with tonight with you guys is Disclosure Day.
Starting point is 00:35:40 We're seeing it. It opens tonight in the United States. So I'm sure some of you have seen it. We got it two days early here in the UK. Some of the UFO people and journalists got to see it even before that. So all the reviews are starting to come out and whatnot. I did kind of a little mini initial reactions coming out of the theater, no spoilers in that. But I will be doing a full spoiler-heavy review this Sunday at 4 p.m. Eastern Standard, 9 p.m. UK time.
Starting point is 00:36:11 And I thought who better to do a review of Spielberg's work with and who better to do a review of a UFO movie with than one of the co-authors of literally the book called After Disclosure and also his partner in crime in the Hollywood world when it comes to UFO movies and television shows. So I'm happy to announce that this upcoming Sunday live will be doing this. episode live, we are going to have Bryce Sable and Brent Friedman coming on the show to do Disclosure Day, a full spoiler review. I am so freaking excited about this. I know Bryce has seen the movie, I think, three times now at this point. He got to sit next to George Knapp and watch it in Las Vegas. I think he's seeing it in Texas as well. And he saw one other time after that. But They are going to come on the show on Sunday. They're so gracious with their time and break this down with me.
Starting point is 00:37:18 And, yeah, I am super, super excited to have them on the show to do that. But, yeah, you know, I think when this movie was first announced and all this mythology behind Stephen Spielberg being in the know and being the one to kind of disclose UFOs through Hollywood to the public. that we we thought this movie was going to be actual disclosure of some sort, right? There was going to be something in the movie that led us to believe, oh, that's real. That's real. Read between the lines or not read between the lines. Maybe he's going to insert the actual Roswell crash UFO footage or something in the movie. I'm not going to say what's in the movie.
Starting point is 00:38:05 I'm not going to say what's not in the movie. I'm just going to say, this is a movie. and it's a Steven Spielberg movie go in thinking that if you haven't seen it yet go in to have a good time and be entertained and go in to appreciate
Starting point is 00:38:22 a lot of the research that went into this movie and it is clearly made by a filmmaker who's passionate about the topic of UFOs and the possibility of life elsewhere in the cosmos that is Steven Spielberg
Starting point is 00:38:37 I have taken over the reins of the somewhere on the screen podcast, which is a movie review podcast. I took the keys for my buddies, Nick Westemeyer and Chris Moss, and my first episode of that podcast, somewhere on the screen, which you can subscribe to you right now, wherever you get podcasts, episode one is out, and I do an analysis and review of close encounters of the third kind. That is the preeminent UFO movie, in my opinion. does Disclosure Day beat that? You're going to have to wait to hear Sunday for my review and what these guys have to say.
Starting point is 00:39:17 But for me, personally, I will say right here, spoiler alert. Close Encounters is it for me. But yeah, let me know what you guys think of the movie after you see it. Again, don't put any spoilers in the chat. A lot of people still have to wait. Suzanne can't see it until two days from now. So she's just like champ at the bit. But I promised her I wouldn't give anything away.
Starting point is 00:39:39 But yes, we will be doing a live review where we will be going heavily into spoilers. So you have been warned. We will warn you a lot during the live stream that it is a spoiler heavy episode. But I'm super excited to hear what these guys have to say. Bryce has already put out one review. And we talked privately and we agree on a lot of things. So I'm really looking forward to that. I'm looking forward to the things we might not agree on either.
Starting point is 00:40:05 You know, I come from a playwriting background and a script writing background. And I was less than impressed with the script for this movie, the dialogue specifically by David Cote, a writer that's worked with Spielberg on many movies, including Close Encounters of the Third Kind, including War of the Worlds. I don't know if he did E.T. I'm not sure on that. But, you know, Bryce obviously comes from a screenwriting background and television writing background. So I'm really interested to dive into that with these guys, like the script. and how they handled the UFO-centric dialogue, as it were, and just the story structure and all of that. And then what does this have to say about disclosure? So I also want to learn and talk to Bryce about like how did this match his book?
Starting point is 00:41:01 Him and Richard Dolan over, gosh, 15 years ago, wrote the book after disclosure. What happens the day after disclosure? This movie asked the question what happens on the day, the hour, the minute, the second disclosure happens. Again, not going to give anything away. But yeah, so I'm really interested to hear what they thought back then about the book and what this movie had to say about it now. So, yeah, yeah. David Cope started with Spielberg on Jurassic Park. Oh, okay.
Starting point is 00:41:34 So he did not write Close Encounters. He did not write E.T. Got it. Andrew Burger. I appreciate that. That's why we have a filmmaker in the chat. He started, yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay. Did you guys see David Cope at the L.A. premiere of the movie? He was going to take a picture with the cast, and he bit it. He tripped and fell on his face. It was, oh, poor guy.
Starting point is 00:42:00 Poor poor guy. But I will not forgive him for some of the things in this script. He said he did 40 scripts before the final script for this movie. 40 drafts for this movie. That astounds me. I won't say anything else until Sunday. Guys, thank you. Thank you so much for being here with me tonight. Thanks for watching along to the UFO experience from 1982.
Starting point is 00:42:30 Thanks for dealing with my bemoaning of batch three of the Pursue Initiative file release. Do you think we're going to get any more? more releases from the government. I don't. I think that was it. I think the only thing to do now is to get angry and go to Jeremy Corbeau
Starting point is 00:42:53 and bang on his door. And I don't mean literally, do not docks this man, but reach out to him and say, dude, it's time. Like, you say you have this shit that's going to, like, change the world. Release the Cracken. That's it. That is it. Cool.
Starting point is 00:43:09 Let's going to do it, guys. But before we go, join me this upcoming Monday for my interview with Patrick Armstrong of Vetted. We're going to talk about his brand new documentary, Cionics, the minds that summon UFOs. You can find it right now to watch at Cyanics.com. Again, that's Cionics.com. And if you buy it there, you will get over three hours of additional material that Patrick was able to get for this documentary. We talk all about it. We get brutally on it.
Starting point is 00:43:39 about, you know, some of these people he interviewed and the approaches they've taken. We go deep into Jake Barber and Skywatcher and what's going on with all of that stuff. And just his thoughts, theories and his experiments that he did with psionics. He literally went out in the field. He traveled all over the United States. And he tried psionics. He tried remote viewing. And the results were very interesting.
Starting point is 00:44:05 See them for yourself in the documentary. again, psionics. Film. Watch it and then come join us for our interview with Patrick.

Starting point is 00:45:01 The best thing about the human species is that we have emotion. There is nothing like the human emotions that we feel in our physical bodies of pain and grief and sorrow and beauty and we taste chocolate cake. We are able to go through all these human emotions and we keep going. And even though we feel the darkest of dark, the lightest of light, we somehow grow and choose to live another day. even if we all fall into those really dark times, you know, we are so resilient as a human race and there's so much good within our hearts. So yeah. Stay tuned to Spectar Vision Radio.
