Everybody talked about it since I first moved to Oregon. The big one, the earthquake that trashed the whole West Coast, total destruction. Officially calling it the largest natural disaster in American history. I just didn't know what would help me next. So I took it all. Even the gun. It was time. Selo?

Yes, welcome back into UAP for this episode 76. I am Stephen Deiner here with you as always on the Unidentified Alien Podcast as we continue recounting some of the most bizarre alien encounter stories in this part two episode after going through part one a couple weeks ago.

And when I say bizarre, I do mean it. And boy, did I ever fall down a rabbit hole with this one? And you'll know what I mean in just a few minutes because this ended up going in a couple of different directions that I did not expect when I first sat down to put this to kind of put this one together. And then as I started going through it, I thought, wow, this took a lot of turns. I did not see coming. I did not have plans. So we're going to go through all of that here. You're going to learn about this new bizarre encounter in this part two of this series.

But first, before we get into all that today, let's, of course, Check out our factoid. Ladies and gentlemen, the factoid. Love that one. Well, it didn't get a lot of attention here in the States, but and what I'm referring to is something that happened in India last week, actually. And it was strange or bizarre at its own right, really. This event certainly had people there talking,

even though it didn't really make a lot of news here in the U.S. it seems like we had a bona fide mass siding at a major airport. So much so that the Indian Air Force scrambled a couple of fighter jets to check it all out. Yes, this really did happen. And it happened, like I said, just about a week and a half ago or so on November 19th in Manipur, India, at the Infal International Airport. So this is the actual news report from this event. Again, about a week and a half ago, as the news broke that the all-air traffic, had to be diverted and flight operations were being suspended due to the siding over the airport.

This is what the news reports sounded like there in India as they reported on this. And it took it very seriously. Just, you know, kind of listen to the tone of the voice here. Where an unknown flying object was seen hovering high above the B'R Thakendrjit International Airport in Nufal. And also what we are learning is that the Indian Air Force has activated the air defense systems nearby. after the reports came in of this unidentified flying object above the international airport in Imphal. And two flights, one coming in from Kolkata, one from Delhi, were diverted. So pretty interesting to hear the serious tone in there, news reporting of the story.

You know, considering, I guess, the tone that we're used to hearing here from the U.S. media on stories such as these, well, that is, honestly, even if they're reported on at all, but nevertheless, this siting took place for around two hours, actually. according to witnesses, it was about two to three hours where in this, and there is video of this. If you go on social media, I'll retweet it today on Twitter at UA Podcast 850 is where you can find me for the, you know, everything about the show and everything that I post on Twitter for the show at UA Podcast 850 right there on Twitter or X, whatever you want to call it. But in the video, it looks to be, look, I'll be honest, it's not an overly impressive sighting. It looks to be like a shiny type of orb hovering in the sky. It's like a bright light, like a dot of light, and it's hovering in the sky above the airport. So it is concerning at the same time for the people who are there because, you know, this is during the day.

It's not like, you know, the sun was setting and the stars were coming out and the planets were visible and we're like, oh, well, that's just Venus. There was something flying over the airport and kind of hovering there in the sky. Nobody knew what it was, but it was visible. So that's why they took it very seriously. Like I said, scramble the fighter jets, you know, shut down air traffic for a couple hours. But what was it? Now, to be fair, it could have been some type of spy balloon, right?

I mean, we've seen our fair share of those here in 2023. Or it could have been another, you know, some type of man-made mechanism. But the fact is, we still don't know what we're seeing last week over the skies of Manipur, India, as reported by multiple witnesses. Again, this just wasn't something that, you know, somebody saw and they went on social media to talk about. This was, as you heard, reported on the news, taking very seriously. You know, Indian Air Force looked into it. So this was a thing.

And when the jets finally did make it over there, once, you know, they were scrambled that way, they didn't find a trace of anything because once they got to the site, of course, the UFO was gone. But I'm going to keep an eye on this one, though, to see if anything else comes from it. because it was odd. It was very public. And that's what always kind of, you know, captures my attention is these very type of public sightings. But now on to the main course as our first bizarre encounter or actually this bizarre encounter in general comes to us from Edwards Air Force Base in California when in 1971 a very startling and highly unusual UFO crash site was discovered. This is the story of the human survivor.

That's right, the human survivor from the UFO crash. A truly fascinating woman named Lori Cordini. So we begin in the summer of 1971 when an eyewitness, whose name is Debbie Clayton. She says she saw and heard the crash, that, you know, kind of the crashing question here, I suppose. She said it took place a few blocks away from her house in a small town of California City,

which is about 15 miles away from Edwards Air Force Base, which is huge, by the way. I mean, it's like a huge encompassing area, Edwards Air Force Base. There's a lot of different cities from, you know, in each direction when you go out, you know, east, west, north and everything. But for Debbie Clayton's part,

she and a small group were, you know, obviously naturally curious as to what just happened. What was that sound? What's going on? And they followed a cloud of dust that was kicked up in the air from the impact. and when they got there, they found what Debbie described as a small mushroom-shaped craft, which is kind of an odd shape.

We don't hear about that, that shape a lot. And she recalled that it was about five feet high and only 10 feet wide. It's almost like a pot of some sort. Like, this is small, right? I mean, this is, it's not very big at all. Five feet high and only 10 feet wide. Now, she went on to further describe the craft as being grayish in color with green highlights, but it was all in one seamless, smooth piece with no windows.

We've heard about things like that before many, many times. And this craft matches, you know, many other descriptions of UFO, UAP that we have, you know, heard about over the years, over the decades, really. But she also found one other thing odd that is the fact that it didn't gather any dust on it as it crashed to the ground. It was like, you know, stainless steel almost, right? There was nothing on it. But also strange to her was that.

the fact that it had crash landed in a perfect upright position. So did they mean to hit the ground that hard? Or did they just get lucky? Like nothing fell over. It was in a perfect upright position. But as she and the small crowd continued to examine this otherworldly craft, we presume, the Air Force showed up in Ernst and immediately began their damage control protocols from there. Even going as far as actually to grab and break someone's camera who had been taking pictures.

and that witness's name was Debbie said his name was Dalton, but we never heard any more about Dalton and her eyewitness account. We never got a last name. We never got any more description of Dalton other than it was somebody that she knew. And he was taking pictures on a camera. What was weird, though, is that they threw the camera to the ground to destroy it, but they didn't take the film.

So the film was just like kind of left sitting there. As far as I know, no pictures were ever developed. Obviously, I guess, you know, it ended up getting ruined on the ground. Now this all happened about 15 minutes after the crash landing, according to Debbie. That's when about 15 minutes after the Air Force came out. So California City, if it's 15 miles out, then they got there pretty quickly. She recounted that the Air Force personnel or military personnel when they came in,

they had their guns drawn and kind of like aggressively instructed her and the other people who were there to move away, like get out of there. Now, they listened. They complied, but only moving as far across as the field as they continue to watch the Air Force personnel kind of clean up the crash site. Now, this is where she says more trucks came and even a small crane came in, which she says picked up the UFO and put it on the back of a truck which drove away in the direction of Edwards Air Force Base. Now, the military personnel, she says, then smoothed out the ground to make it look like nothing. had happened. And before she and the others knew it, the whole thing was over. It was like nothing had ever happened. And as the days went on, Debbie was like, well, it's got to be

on the news. Like, I'm going to hear about this. I'm going to read it in the newspaper. But there was nothing. There was no mention of this incident in any news outlet, neither in print nor on TV. So it seemed that the only people talking about it were her and the others who were there that day. Now, normally I do want to just say real quick because you're probably thinking, you know, well, what are we going to hear more about this? This is, you know, it's so funny because they say that I'm doing, you know, bizarre encounters, right? We're talking about bizarre encounters. And this is probably one of the only times as bizarre as it might be that as I'm doing a story, I could not find any sound about this. I could not, because normally I like to play some type of sound clip for

you. If you're, you know, listen to the show. You've heard many different things as I go along, kind of illustrate more what you're hearing about. There was nothing. There was nothing on this. No sound clip, no news reports, no, you know, videotaped witness interviews with Debbie Clinton or anybody about this sighting and this crash, which was frustrating. But that's why I'm doing my best to kind of describe everything to you because this is where the strange a bizarre kind of takes over. I mentioned the names Lori Cordini. That's who you're going to learn about.

So what does she have to do with all this? Like, who is Debbie Clayton? What does she have to do with Lori Cordini in this UFO crash? Well, Debbie's story went unnoticed until about 25 years after the fact. When around 1995, 1996, a woman named Lori Cordini popped up. And she says that she was the survivor. of that UFO crash. I would say that's quite a twist.

And now here's the thing. Lori says that she was on the craft, not only by herself, no, she wasn't by herself, but she was there with three other gray aliens. So we're talking about a woman who now says almost 25 years after the fact, after her, that's, you know,

Debbie Clayton says she saw what she saw in 1971. Now we're in the mid-90s. And Lori Cordini comes out and says, that she was on that craft with three other great aliens. Now, before I continue with that, I want to kind of point out an important missing detail here when we were talking about the eyewitness account of Debbie Clayton. She had no mention of any bodies,

kind of, you know, lying astroon on the crash site, as we may normally hear about. There's been so many different crash sites and crash, you know, stories over the decades, and there's always something with, you know, bodies kind of lying outside the craft on the ground. But that wasn't the case here. She didn't see that.

That is because Lori says she and three small gray aliens were not discovered until the UFO was taken back to Edwards. And that's where we pick up Lori's side of the story because Shopify is the commerce platform behind millions of businesses around the world and 10% of all e-commerce in the U.S. from household names like Death Wish Coffee, Brooke Linnon and Kylie.

It actually begins further back than that to her childhood in July. of 1947 when Lori was five years old. Does that sound familiar by the way, July of 1947? This is when she says she remembered seeing a bright light in the night sky one night in the New Mexico area. Yes, you guessed it. Same time frame, same state where the Roswell incident took place. But this is something different though that Lori could never really quite piece together. It wasn't the Roswell crash or, you know, that sighting. She says it was it was before that. She says that she remembered this, you know, occurrence for her entire life, but she can never make sense out of it. But now we fast forward a little bit to 1995.

And that is when Lori came across Debbie Clayton's eyewitness account that we just went through from that 1971 crash. And a print interview she did about it in the 80s. So she's kind of surfing the web. She's trying to find out more about these things. And she comes across that interview that Debbie Clayton did. talking about it in a newspaper. So from there, Lori decided to look into this more

and see if there's any type of help that she can get, like a support group or something, something to help her figure this out. And she ended up finding a meeting of a Mufon meeting, actually, which if you're not familiar with it, the mutual UFO network, they do, you know, a lot of work investigations and things like that into UFO crashes and sightings,

uh, abductions, everything when it comes to the UFO, UAP phenomenon. And she found a meeting that was taking place where she was living at the time in Boone, North Carolina. And when she was there, she was struck by some of the other abduction testimonies that she heard while she was there. And she really felt like at that point that, you know, like this curiosity was taking over her. She felt that she needed to get this all finally figured out, right? She had this memory of her childhood from 1947 around the same time as the Roswell craft. Then she comes across this article and she starts kind of remembering something about that.

And so then she goes to this meeting and she figures, you know, I'm not the only one who's going through these things. I kind of need to figure out what's going on. So she finally decided to kind of take the plunge because she was still confused about it all. And she decided to go or kind of undergo hypnotherapy to unlock and understand all these regressed memories that she felt she had. they were stuck. She couldn't get it. And according to Lori, it actually worked out quite well. And from her sessions, she says she began to recall the details of that 1947 event first. According to her, she was chosen from a young age.

And that's why I wanted to go back to when Lori Cordini was a child because it does all start there. This is a, or it was a lifelong journey for Lori where she says she was chosen from a young age to be like a conduit between humans and aliens. and she said she experienced their first abduction that night as a five-year-old child. And she talked about even in her hypnotherapy sessions where she remembers her mother trying to grab her feet as she was being taken out of the house in this bright light. And which, I mean, I can only imagine how terrifying that must have been. But the weird thing was, as Lori remembered in her sessions, was that her mother didn't seem really scared.

Like she was more frustrated that it was happening, but she wasn't scared. So after all this, after her hypnotherapy session, she came to her mother and she said, you know, obviously as a grown adult now in her 50s, she said, you know, mom, why didn't you ever tell me the truth about this? And that's when she opened up. And it seemed like, according to Lori, that her mom was some type of experienceer as well. Like she had gone through these things. and it kind of opened up all these new doors.

But she also regained her memories involving the 1971 crash, where she says that she was indeed on a pod-like UFO with those three gray aliens as they were escorting her back to Earth from their mothership, where she says she was doing work. So it's kind of where, you know, you have to open up our horizons here, as Lori starts to remember all these different things and says this is what was going on, that she was on this mothership,

that she was part of a, you know, alien human cooperation, that she was working with these aliens, that she wasn't, you know, being taken against her will, that they would come and take her and she would do some type of work, you know, some type of, again, human, alien cooperation that she was a part of and essentially, you know,

working on this mothership with the other great aliens. It's incredible, the claims that she had here. So Lori ended up going on with more details about this. And she says that after the crash, only her and one other alien survived. So started with three, and then it was just her and one other great alien. Now, you might be wondering where all this is coming from.

She did do print interviews, but she never did any type of video that I can, could ever find any way. I would have loved to play you some sound from her specifically, but I just cannot come across it. Maybe you do better than I can, but I at least wanted to impart her words and her story across to you here today on this, you know, part two of bizarre encounters, because this is definitely a bizarre one. She says that they were subjected to questioning and testing, and that she was herself interrogated by not only military personnel, but she says that there were other gray aliens who were present and working with the military.

She said that she was able to communicate with gray's telepathically. And when she was there, she felt that this particular gray that was working with the military was telling her that he was actually proud to be working with them, almost kind of like boasting about it to her. You know, like he was like, you know, hot stuff. Like, yeah, I'm cool. You know, they trust me and I have, you know, this relationship. Like it was very strange.

She says it got even stranger though because on the other end of this, Lori says that while she and the other gray alien were being held at Edwards Air Force Base, at that point she received a telepathic message from the head alien on the mothership where she came from. Or she actually refers to it as the captain of the mothership. And she does describe the alien in detail. And this all came back to her through, you know, regression therapy, you know, this is hypnotherapy, all these details. This is where it comes from. She described the alien as actually a taller female gray, which I found interesting that we had description of sex in there because you never really hear that when it comes to descriptions of, you know, the grays in general, right?

It's always like almost like a drone-looking type of being with no sexual. organs attached. But she says she describes this taller female gray and specifically specifically said female. She said about six feet tall actually and she described her wearing a

white gown and as having short brown hair. I mean, this is unlike any other description I've ever heard of a gray alien which kind of makes me wonder and I'm just kind of thinking about this as actually I'm talking to you, telling you the story,

are we talking about a hybrid alien here? Are we talking about a hybrid gray? I mean, does that explain the, you know, the appearance of any type of, you know, sexual organs that would show that this is a female alien? And the fact that it had short brown hair, we never hear these types of details, human-like details, human-like traits,

attributed to gray alien encounters. But in this one, Lori Cordini says that this gray alien had these traits, so take it for what it's worth. And if that's the truth, again, I mean, I just wonder out loud, are we talking about some type of hybrid alien here?

It's incredible. But she says that she was given a message of sympathy, actually, from this captain. Because according to Lori, she felt that this, this captain on the mothership felt helpless and frustrated because she wasn't able to help bring in Lori or the other aliens and help them out at all

because they were afraid of being detected. And I want to touch on that in a second, but Lori even described her as being sorrowful and saying that she was surrounded by other smaller great aliens who kind of felt that same sentiment of sorrow and frustration. I mean, this is really wild stuff here, obviously. I just want to go back real quick to how Lori described this of, you know, saying that they were afraid of being detected because that's a thought that's kind of popped into my mind before when it comes to, you know, any type of crash site, right?

Why isn't there some type of rescue operation? If you're crashing, I mean, think about any military, you know, in the world. If there's some type of crash, there's a rescue, you know, a search and rescue operation, right? You try to find the pilots, you try to find the craft, see if everybody's okay or, you know, otherwise, but either way you're trying some type of search and rescue operation. We never hear about search and rescue operations

when it comes to UFO crash sites. Why is that? Now, this is all theory, of course, but is it possible that it just does come down to that? like this fear of being detected. Now, what are you afraid of? Are you afraid of having to explain what's going on? Are you afraid of, you know, meddling in affairs of a different race so publicly?

And it's an interesting concept. I mean, is it just a fear of these people aren't going to understand us and they're going to hurt us? Now, that part makes sense to me. I mean, you think about if, you know, a Star Trek movie, right? You remember the Star Trek movie where one of the newer ones with, who was it, Chris Pine who played Captain Kirk, where, you know, they come across the indigenous people of this young planets and they're in this, you know, a highly advanced ship and everything. And they don't know what they're looking at, right? You're afraid. That's, that's the thing.

It's human nature to be afraid of the unknown. The first reaction is fear, to have fear of the unknown. So if they are, the aliens, that is, afraid of being detected, well, why would they be afraid of being detected? Because they know that if they come across, you know, if they come down in a mothership or something like that, there's going to be a lot of questions and a lot of fear. And maybe that's why you don't see a lot of these search and rescue operations

because they're afraid for their own safety, quite frankly. Something to consider, I suppose. It's kind of a question that's been in my head. Hey guys, so before we get back into the conversation, I just want to talk about something that affects all of us. And it's scary. Starting something new, right? It's hard and it is kind of terrifying because you think about all the work that goes into it. Are you going to be able to succeed?

What new challenges am I going to face? It's that uncertainty. But I know how that is because I can think back when I started UAP. I was just hoping for the best. And it's just like that when you're starting your own business. That's why Shopify is so great and why I'm so happy. happy to be able to talk about them. Because despite all the fears and hesitations when starting something new, it certainly helps

to have a partner like Shopify on your side to help. Shopify is the commerce platform behind millions of businesses around the world and 10% of all e-commerce in the U.S. from household names like Death Wish Coffee, Brooke Linnon, and Kylie.

But when it comes through the interrogation parts, you know, the testing and everything that Lori Cordino was talking about, kind of getting back to her story, what she says once it was all done, that's when the military kind of like attempted to wipe her memory using some type of, you know, all these different drugs and hypnosis. And then once they did that, they dropped her off in the middle of nowhere, essentially, in Southern California. And even though this is a story you may find hard to believe, all in all,

Lori certainly felt a sense of relief according to all accounts after finding all this out. She actually began to reach out to other abductees throughout the 90s and all the way until her passing in 2015 when Lori Cordini passed away. But it was during that time, though, that she made some pretty interesting comments about herself and her beliefs when it came to all of her experiences. In her later life, Lori said that she experienced duality, meaning that she lived both a three-dimensional human life and a four-dimensional existence as a light being, which she described as being duality. And when she said light beings, she says that was essentially, you know, her way of describing the, the, someone's soul, your own soul. She had stated her belief that her four-dimensional self, her light being,

would gather information, what type of information? I'm not sure, you know, from the universe or whatever it may be, while her three-dimensional normal earthly body was asleep. In one of her later interviews, Lori was quoted as saying, and I'll finish off this story actually with this quote because I thought it was pretty interesting. It was poignant even. she said, it's not about little green men.

It's about who we are as human beings and where we come from, our relationship to the cosmos, how the earth got here, how we're interrelated in the endless, endless journey. So there you have it. The bizarre and actually really quite fantastical story of Lori Cordini. Now, there will be a part three to the series, which I wasn't planning on, honestly.

It was going to be two parts and then, you know, kind of go on to a lot of, lot of the other things that I want to cover with you during UAP. There's so much out there. There's so much to discuss and discover and talk about and ask questions about. But there was just so much information and so much to present all at once. I felt like all of our heads would explode with all this info if I went on to the second story that's, or I guess the third story, if I go back to

part one, that I wanted to present you. So there will be a part three to this series and trust me it's going to be worth it so i will keep you updated on when that part three is going to come out to finish off what i guess ended up being a trilogy of uh the most bizarre alien encounters but before i go here i do want to quickly touch on some of the big news that has come out over the past couple of days and that was another reason why i wanted to save the final story for part three of this series because i wanted to take some time real quick just to cover as best i can some of the things going on in the UAP world. There's been so much news coming out and so much talk.

Even today, you know, in Washington, D.C., Representative Annapolina Luna has holding a press conference to talk about disclosure and the, you know, Disclosure Act that's trying to be, or trying to get passed through the House on Capitol Hill. And it's just been an absolute mess. We don't know what to believe, you know, is the Schumer Amendment better? Is the Bert Shet Amendment better? There's so much going on on Capitol Hill when it comes to talk of UAP disclosure that it is kind of overwhelming, to be honest with you. So I'm going to dig in more to that probably next week on UAP weekly because I really want to dig into the minutiaa and the details.

And I want to let everything kind of play out the rest of this week. And I think we'll know more next week about what's really happening and what kind of steps forward we're going to be taking. because remember spoke about this during the episode, talking about David Grush's interview with Joe Rogan, where David Grush spoke about this, you know, the Schumer Amendment trying to get passed along with the National Defense Authorization Act of 2024. You know, they're kind of going hand in hand. And this stuff needs to get passed.

And this UAP Disclosure Act was part of it, you know, what they call the Schumer Amendment. That's what that refers to when you hear that. But it's been held up in the house. So you have these two things kind of going hand in hand. And then David Gresh spoke about it, saying it would be an absolute tragedy if this UAP Disclosure Act was squashed in the house. So there's been a lot of talk about this. Matt Gates and, you know, Representative Luna and Burchett and the mics, right, we spoke

about Mike Rogers and Mike Turner in the past episode talking about David Gruscious's interview with Joe Rogan. So a lot going on in Capitol Hill. I want to let it all play out before I go into, you know, really all of the details. But that is something major, major going on right now. now and the UAP world that I did want to touch on, and I am paying attention to it. And we'll get into more details, like I said, hopefully next week on UAP weekly when it comes to that.

Of course, the news that came out too about the CIA crash retrieval program. That was another big, you know, kind of story that dropped this week. We learned about something called the Office of Global Access. So that was new to hear about something called the Office of Global Access. We hadn't heard that before, but that came out through a report. really great journalist named Christopher Sharp through the Daily Mail. That report came out. And they spoke about, you know, how the CIA, there's some whistleblowers who they spoke to,

a lot of, you know, obviously anonymous sources who they spoke to for this report out of the Daily Mail in the UK that said the CIA has this Office of Global Access Program, which acts as a UFO crash retrieval program. And they have at least, the U.S. government, that is, has at least nine UFOs in their possession. Now we've heard that number is much higher, maybe upwards towards 30. But we don't know for sure, obviously, and that's kind of stuff that we're trying to figure out through disclosure, right? Like, what do we have? What does it mean? What can it do? All those questions. And this is kind of like my final statement for today because I've heard people say, you know, the U.S. government, they spend too much time on aliens. Who cares about aliens? It's not all about just, you know, hey, the aliens, man.

like it's it that's not it's about trying to uncover trying to put out to the world this technology that will help so many people that will change our society this otherworldly advanced technology that these military contractors companies like lockheed martin and the such are holding to themselves or hoarding for their own government military purposes and they have been for a very long time think what you want. That's just what's been going on. That's just my opinion. Again, I always say decide for yourself,

but that's the way I've seen it for a long time. So it's not just about, you know, hey, aliens, man, you know, as some people like to say when they make, you know, they make fun of this issue because there are still a lot of people who think this is a taboo discussion, and it's not, and it shouldn't be. But it's about trying to get the truth out to everybody to say, this is what's been going on.

This has been the cover up. And this is what this is what this is. information and technology can do for you and how it can help the world. And that's kind of the bigger picture with this, I think, that maybe, you know, some people are missing who still look at this issue as a joke. And that's a shame. So a lot to keep my eye on, obviously, or all of us, you know, a lot of stuff going on in the UAP world and a lot more to come up.

Man, there is going to be a lot to update on. So definitely stay tuned to UAP and UAP weekly. and of course on social media as well. You can follow the show at UA Podcast 850 on Twitter.
