A strange creature was captured and then...

and had direct telepathic communication.

And now a friend.

And I just really appreciate you coming here

you have alien beings, and you have all of these witnesses

And you've just done an amazing job in this movie

and them seeming sort of injured and afraid.

And you show all of these witnesses

And they're coming from this, you know, from Virginia, Brazil.

in the Southwest in the U.S. and, like, into the UFO lore.

People took years, and in some cases, decades, to come forward.

And, you know, this most recent revelation,

Right? And it's not just some random Joe.

and he had health complications.

and he was, like, staring at the ceiling of the ICU,

and he was thinking, if I get through this,

And it's clearly, you know, he's a concert pianist.

And, um, and he's a really well-respected neurosurgeon.

And, um, it seems totally beyond reproach.

And you see him, he's in the hospital,

and he's showing the bed that the alien was on.

And then he gets emotional.

So, and no noise at all.

and made that movement over there in front, you see.

And I saw it all from right here.

and then it landed way back there.

and there are a number of witnesses to a cylindrical-shaped object,

Okay? And it was like a metallic...

and according to the witnesses, it had,

and for the first time ever in this recent cut of Moment of Contact,

you know and uh so they see this object and it had a tear in the back of it which is very puzzling

like hmm how did that happen something came in contact with that object to tear it and have they

a white vapor that was coming out the back and then it was clearly in distress and i was like

it was absolutely silent and they were expecting it to hit the ground the two farmers um and um and

then there was another gentleman uh fabio for tata at that farm and he said that that it was make like

it like it was over his house and he was there with one other person at night and he said that

it was making a sound like it was kind of in trouble and then it landed on his farm it's the

first time we got that testimony and that's like over here and then you know the object was seen

here and here and then it crashed right in the middle um and then uh there was a gentleman by the

name of carlos de souza and he was an ultralight pilot and he was also a history geography professor in

sao paulo and he was going up to go ultralight flying with his friends early in the morning

on january 13th and he sees and he's a pilot himself he sees this object this cigar shaped

air and he never once thought alien he was like that must be some sort of weird experimental crap

down so it's really early in the morning he turns off the freeway and he goes up to this place called

the maialini farm it was a dirt road and he goes up there and he sees it struggling to stay in the air

and then it just goes boom and hits the ground he's like oh my god that thing just crashed they need help

maybe two football fields with debris everywhere half of the craft was still intact and then the

other half was just gone like just debris bits everywhere got out of the car and he's looking at

it just and again never once did he think alien now doesn't even enter his his consciousness right and um

he said he's looking at he's like these little bits everywhere and he goes the smell like he pulled

to me he was like it's rotten eggs and ammonia he grabbed his shirt and kind of pulled his shirt over

a very strong odor i had to cover my nose with the shirt i was wearing and there was like kind of a

the grass and stuff to burn and um he said it was acid maybe like an acid or something yeah like some

kind of liquid and um that caused he was talking about the grass was kind of was affected by it and

the ground looks different in that zone there it does all around it i mean it really does yes and um

he picked up one of the pieces and he said it was like uh like aluminum really light like you couldn't

feel it very much like the roswell people that's always what you hear yeah and he said that he could

crumple it up really light like you could barely feel it in your hands and then when he released it

it was weightless you couldn't feel if you had anything in your hands and then he goes he goes then

which actually just a few months ago we were there and i took the drone way way up in the sky

and pointed it straight down and you could see where the as a military base the route that as it

would come in from and he came in from the freeway on the opposite side and that's when he was he was

like you know what what's the problem you know just trying to help i'm not you know and that's when

he said things got really weird and then he got into his car and he left and he stopped at a gas

station just a few miles down the road to have a coffee and trying to gather himself and that's when

an unmarked vehicle showed up and they knew who he was his name his wife his address his daughter

very tall individuals they stood right next to me and asked me are you mr carlos de susa married to

so-and-so your daughter so-and-so they described my entire life story right there i turned to the man and

it was perfectly clear to me listen you didn't see anything you just shut your mouth and you leave

it was a black or a very dark blue opala almost black and without the license plate

they got in and drove away they vanished that's that's crazy because it's a level of counter intel

response times in 96 in 1996 and they they somehow know everything about your family

and it's right after you witness a crashed craft and you drive a few miles away yeah and they somehow

it they were very tall they had suits and uh they spoke portuguese and you know sometimes there'll be

one person speaking portuguese and there'll be a couple other people that'll just be silent in the

background and that's that happened in the case of uh louisa the mother of the two girls that came in

direct contact with the alleged alien um and she's like they were foreigners like how do you know well

they didn't say anything but they looked like foreigners and the money was foreign it was like american

dollars in a briefcase and um and he said that they were very intimidating they said you don't you

didn't see what you you know you didn't see that you know and if you ever talk about it things are

going to get very weird for you not they're going to hunt you down and kill you they're going to get

men in black stuff dating back to the yeah to the 90s when i was investigating and i was like i

investigated the phoenix lights case and and a lot of the witnesses hate when you say phoenix lights

compartments it flew right around my yeah the governor has now admitted is real and kurt russell

there you go yeah so we're going into phoenix and uh there's these bank of lights six lights

in the shape of a triangle going back right over the airport so i was investigating that case and

i was working with a woman who was like a councilwoman francis emma barwood and um i was interviewing her

and of course i was going after the governor but at the time i wasn't getting any traction with that

and i was interviewing all the witnesses and and uh there was one guy a vietnam vet and he

you know and she was lambasted in the press oh my gosh you can go see they were making fun of her

this guy reached out to her and i know this because i was investigating at the time i was in touch with her

and he said hey um i understand you want to know more about this craft is i i'm a vietnam vet i was

over the sky you know and um and i have a cb radio and i was listening to the truckers come up interstate

10 from tucson and they were all describing this massive boomerang shaped craft and i realized

shit this thing's coming right my way so he he said i i was all set up with a tripod and a camera

and i filmed it going right over the top of my house got great footage would you like to see it

in an unmarked government vehicle and suits and he's like he was they were very intimidating looking

i mean they were like in these dark suits it was really hot and uh the only thing they really asked

office we're here to pick up the video and he was like oh i was going to drop it off but i guess i

don't have to and he said the only question they asked is uh did they make did he make any copies and

he said no i didn't and so they took the they took the footage and left and a couple days go by

first time that i really heard about these so-called men in black and that was in the 90s yeah no this is

phenomenon happening time and time and time and time again you you have another example uh which you cover

the witnesses looked at this for a while and one of them had a camera so when the jet came along

they sort of stuck the camera out from behind the bush and snapped six frames

that and he's like these men in black rolled up they were having their cigarette break they were

fucking spooks they were men in black and they stood outside and the person ran speaking to them

that yeah and i did cover a little bit with the 1966 uh westall ufo incident the landing when i got

agency threatening him like putting the blood the fear of god in this guy and yeah so if you talk to

it the level of rapid response it's the ability to show up and like you know kind of know everything

citizen of virginia on a you know this guy who's a pilot in virginia and a geography teacher in sao

paulo probably not you know and then the ability to show up a couple hours after he had seen this

crash and i asked him i said it was the was the the section that was still intact was it big enough

but the section was intact that was still there and it was about half half the size of what it was when

it when it impacted seven days after salsa witnessed the crash jubel ladera leaves this gym when he and

and come upon a military blockade we tried to force our way through and they raised their rifles their

seen such a large weapon and no one had ever pointed a gun in my direction you know and you have some

reason to believe that two or three beings came out and that and one of the beings and you have you have

who is 14 years old and lilias who is 16 years old are also very frightened it's the first time they've come

strange and it had these things like horns right on its head its skin was brown and it looked like it

had some some kind of oil all over its body it had a huge foot and its eyes were super wide and red

and then i think you have some reason to believe that one of the beings made its way over the hill

and possibly towards the water and then was captured with a net is that right yeah that was over the

they would with a wild animal or something like that and but it was screaming like a little baby that's

over 20 years my partner he's amazing um and the persistence of of of of all of them and

marco and i knocking on doors like going downtown putting up signs like leading us to be like i just

laughed at like their life was a living hell men in black showed up at their mom's house and they got

offered cash to retract their statements a lot of money they did not they did not and the mother said

were very intimidating to her and like so all this pressure and all this you know but i i was there

with i was in virginia i'm gonna say it was my second or third time and it was probably 2012 would be

my guess and i was doing a silly tv show which i'm not proud of at all my bad but whatever it got me

to where i am now i guess and i was from national geographic oh god it was so bad sorry guys and and

we were out wandering in the in the jungle at night and i got bit by a spider oh and it was like midnight

or something we shed no business out so silly i got bit by a spider and by the fang marks it looked

and they had to go to an anti-venom and i was up all night getting this drip feed and then the next

day i didn't get any sleep and the camera crew the whole team they were like we're going here and we

got this scheduled and i was like i've been up all night man like i i'm on camera tv talent and you

guys are expecting i was like at the very least i need to stop at a cafe and get a get a a juice

and they're like no no no we don't have time we don't have time and and i was like i you know

i and the car was stopped the van that i was in was stopped at a stoplight and i just opened the door

and got out i was like you guys leave without me i'm not i need some juice i need something i need

something to nourish me so i walked into this random like cafe juice bar and i'm in there ordering and uh

this guy's looking at me and i think he said something english like hey are you what are you

are you american it's like yeah what are you what are you doing here and i was like oh i'm kind of

my gosh i dated one of the girls i said really and uh we're trying to reach them we're trying to find

them and he goes let me hang on takes his phone out boom gets her on the phone hey what's it going to

take you and that's how we first met whoa and so had i not been bitten by the you know what i mean

there and we just came by this way i didn't realize that's closer than i expected it's like

eight feet away and he was absolutely sweltering sweating profusely and it was incredibly hot

and so he was uh going through it you know suffering from the intense heat the scorching sun

and the effect it had on his skin remember i said hey everyone look over there then he turned i saw

his eyes and i immediately ran away so when he turned we could only see his eyes and what looked

honestly it wasn't an animal either and so these days i truly believe it's a being from another planet

in pause and that it could be a demon so that's why we ended up being afraid back then you know

you know so the three girls run to her house and they say we saw this creature we might have been

the devil or whatever it was and they do they do they get in the car and drive here do they walk

here how did they get here and what did they see when they got here she said let's go there in the

pickup truck and i told her i'm not going i'm too scared i won't come back then louise asked please

won't you come with me so i finally got into the pickup truck and we came back we ended up stopping right

oh i'm still trembling do you want to see one toe then another long toe and then another toe like this

eric lopes and marco chereze drive down this road on the lookout for something unusual

it was captured by marco chereze whisper his bare hands easily and take it into the hospital

into the vehicle right yep and no hesitation puts about puts it on his lap that's so wild and then he

ends up with this gnarly bacterial infection and i don't want to get too too into the details because

have the autopsy of this soldier who's died because he basically grabbed an alien being and and it shows

bacteria yeah yeah the guy the founder of the company ipd and you could get the it's an acronym

but the founder of the company dr janini and the guy that did the autopsy on the deceased military

the f you have the the guy who provided the the report and all the infrastructure for the report the

one who founded the company and the guy who founded the company and and and the the autopsy guys

both saying and they're using words like i get goosebumps and and then they're the ones speculating

that the that the claw from the et must have punctured the skin and it's like this he said the

attention it was a very distinct and deliberate scratch on the resis skin clearly inflicted by et

on earth does you know you see them in the movie saying that it's like incredible yeah and it's not

and he's still working at the hospital today when we first started selling merchandise at americanalchemymerch.com

we had no idea how complicated and annoying selling merch could be we talked to a dozen different

platforms and companies comparing shipping tools payment options website builders and it all felt

like way more of a headache and complicated than it should be we decided on shopify and within days our

and the vision we had for it that's when it hit us ideas don't scale on inspiration alone they need a

structure a container shopify provides that structure it quietly powers millions of creators and brands

about 10 percent of all united states e-commerce from big names like gymshark and mattel to solo

and when you have a very clear brand vision plus their ai tools help write descriptions organize

products even clean up photos so we can focus on what matters and what we care about building the

best custom merch line possible with the coolest designs like our ufo cowboy tee and the atomic age tee

quietly handling everything behind it sign up for your one dollar per month trial and start today

just one dollar a month to try shopify the state-of-the-art solution in e-commerce and they tried to suppress this

report and marco shirisi's sister oh yeah tried to get yes basically had to sue them and rest the

report out of them the wife couldn't get the the autopsy report from her husband that's great and

prevention and diagnostics in virginia nesse exame aqui nesse laudo fala que ele tem uma presença de

him and he died do you believe that there's some credibility to that story

of the incident, year two, three, whatever, and then just kind of,

people pulled back. There was just nothing to gain and everything to lose.

Like just going up against, you know, Goliath and people just want

their lives back, you know? And, and I went downtown and I was,

and I would look for old people.

Cause I was like, all right, these pop, you know, and I'd walk up

and I was just asking, and I remember my sound guy was from Rio.

And he was like, he looked at me and he was like, dude, are you insane?

Right. And so I was just going up and then I found this one old guy

and he was like, oh yeah, I think I know.

And we're driving around a random goose chase.

It was like, and I remember my sound guy looks over me.

And, um, uh, her husband was very protective and he was wearing this white,

wife beater and he was just ripped.

And he was like standing in the background, like you give me the nod

and I'm going to rip this guy's head off.

And, and she doesn't know who the hell I am. Right.

And I said, I'm here to give your, your, your brother justice, to give your brother a voice.

And that broke the tension immediately.

And it was like, okay, let's talk.

And then we, and then that's how I got in with Marta Tavares.

And this is the story, the creature from outer space.

And that was one capture in the morning by the fire department with a net.

And then the, the other one, which was Marco Cherise and Eric Lopes.

And it's interesting actually, because when you watch the movie and a lot of people miss this,

when we doorstepped Eric Lopes and a lot of people, a lot of people criticize us for that.

And he was the military transport guy.

And the co-intelligence officer, police officer, Marco Cherise jumped out and grabbed it.

And it was just a couple of blocks away from where the girls had seen this creature just

And Eric Lopes basically said, I will deter you with bullets or something.

And you know, and you answer the door, you see the police and you go, there's no drugs

And when I was standing there trying to make sense of what was going on, because it was

And they were talking, you know, and like, I speak French and I speak a little Spanish and

He was making threats, I guess, about shooting me and shooting everybody else.

And I'm looking in the eyes of this guy and he's up.

And he's got something in one hand and I don't know what, if he had a gun or whatever he had,

You know, I'm sure he's armed to the teeth, but I'm looking in his eyes and, and, and I

And I looked into this guy's eyes and I, I just saw eyes of someone that I've never,

Like I was just like, I, it's like time stopped and I'm looking in this guy's eyes and I've

Like if you could imagine harboring or witnessing a murder or something really intense and then

or who knows what, like, and you had to harbor that for the better part of 30 years,

And you, and you sense that he's been threatened.

His family has been threatened and that he probably feels like kind of half a man or

the same hospital where military police officers Marco Tresi and Eric Lopez allegedly had taken the live alien they'd captured on the road.

And he was, well, partially covered.

And what, what did the creature say to you?

His face was white, his eyes were red, and he wasn't showing any suffering at all, no.

And Marcos Venisis, there's a lot to that story as well.

He didn't survive and he passed.

And he did surgery on the alien being.

And so he died in 2018, I believe.

And Ventarelli, um, he said he was face to face with this being.

And what did he, what did he describe as far as that interaction?

And then he looked into it and he, as a pilot in the Air Force, he said that thing could not have been from here.

And I said, how did you know that governor?

And he goes, because of its size and its flight characteristics, it couldn't have been from here.

And that was a moment in my career where I honestly, and I'm not just making this up, I remember sitting in my chair and I'm going, did the governor of Arizona just say that he too saw it and that he looked into it and he felt it was otherworldly?

And I'm like, I think I must be dreaming. And so I'm like pinching my, I literally grabbed my leg and I pinched it. And, and I was like, no, I feel that I'm not, I'm not dreaming.

Then I said, I bet the cameras aren't rolling. So I looked over at the camera to see if the, you know, and then when we were with Dr. Italo, the neurosurgeon in regional hospital that he just snuck us in the back gate, like, you know, with all cameras rolling and the audio guys and everything.

And then he starts talking about like, this is the bed. This is the ICU. I was like, holy shit. This guy's just going full Komodo. Like he's just saying the hell with it, whatever the consequences. This is what happened. I was here. I sat with it in this bed, right here in this room for three to four minutes.

After several minutes of interaction with the being in this exact ICU at Hospital Regional, Dr. Italo told us the military burst in and took the being, then threatened the hospital staff to remain silent.

And how is the situation that you feel to be sharing this information with us?

He's had some health scares and giving you this testimony and he freaks out cause he's gonna lose his job.

So apparently it was, uh, and, and, uh, I'm not qualified to do, you know, I'm not a neurosurgeon, but from what I understand is that there was swelling from head trauma and that he had released the pressure by putting, I guess they do a little hole or something like that where it releases the pressure.

And it, and it was probably with Marcos Charisi, um, there was probably some interaction with his blood cause he, there was a, maybe a, a, a punctured wound or something.

I said, by the time your audience watches this, I've already been back and then we have a huge meeting with all the doctors as many as we can get.

Marcos Venesis's daughter, Marcos Venesis is, he had a mistress and he had a, he had a kid with the mistress.

We, we, we talked with the wife and, um, because.

And that was actually one of the reasons why the, the, the police officer, he's like, you're doing a serious investigation.

We are providing a platform for people to come forward and not be ridiculed, not be laughed at, taken seriously.

And like, you know, kind of like first time in decades.

So they're seeing, this is a real effort to really get the truth out and power numbers, you know?

And, um, um, and, and again, I, I think this is the beginning of the beginning on this case.

And I, I know you've given credit as it's due to many, uh, of these local Brazilian UFO researchers.

Uh, but I think as far as mass exposure, you are, you are helping them, you know, really get this thing out and you keep going back.

And so I really admire that.

And so the Ventarelli thing is just fascinating.

And you imagine the weight of that on your shoulders.

Like, excuse me, the witnesses, you know, adamantly saying, you know, this is what I saw, particularly those, the three girls, you know, and then knowing that you sat in the hospital room in the ICU with a live captured alien and had direct telepathic communication.

But that's like people seeing a landed craft and seeing entities connected allegedly to the craft.

And that's close kind of thrift kind.

But to actually have an alien, alleged alien in captivity and having direct contact, direct communication.

And despite the fact that it was in captivity, it had control of the whole room.

And it's just this kind of inherently ephemeral thing where you have to take their word for it.

And, you know, clearly all of the incentives go in the direction of the world.

And because he's had a couple of light life threatening illnesses and scares, he comes out and speaks to you.

And it was, it was, uh, it had sort of acquiesced to being in captivity and was very calm and that it was, it was okay.

Um, and he said, when he looked into the eyes of it, it read his mind.

And I kept saying, like, what do you mean by that?

And I said, explain that.

And that you, and he said that one of the last things he said was there's so much to learn from the eyes of that being.

And it's just amazing to think, you know, think about that.

And, you know, you hear other cases in the wild where people talk about, you know, looking in the eyes of the creature.

I remember the wife of Lonnie Zamora looking at me and she goes, I don't know what happened when he looked at that creature, but he was never the same.

And that's exactly what he said.

He said there's so much to learn from them and they're advanced, like more advanced somehow than, than human consciousness.

And then what did he say about the physical characteristics?

And I don't know, this is just speculation, but when the girls came in contact with this being that was most likely the same being that he had in the hospital, because the chain, like the girls saw it, they got within 10 feet of it.

It was a really hot day in the summertime, January summer over in Brazil, and it was suffering.

No, not happy, but sad, hunched over, pale and sad, and he had no hair.

And I saw that he was frightened.

And it was suffering, and the girls said it was suffering.

In fact, when all three girls came into contact with that creature, two of them, the two sisters, grabbed each other by the hand and hightailed it out of there.

And they realized they had left Katya behind.

And Valkyria and Liliani, the two sisters, stopped and realized, shoot, we got to go back and get Katya.

And Katya was locked eyes with this creature.

And it was pleading to her, because I asked Katya, what was it saying?

And it was suffering.

And I just thought, my gosh, can you imagine how different it would have been if they'd gone with, if the girls had taken the creature and hidden, or, you know, who knows, like, given it aid or whatever.

Liliani ran back and grabbed Katya and yanked her out of there.

And then, the reason why we're pretty sure that that's the same being that Dr. Italo had direct telepathic communication with in captivity is because we did all aerial photography of the area.

And if you look at where the girls came encounter it, like, late afternoon with the creature, just a few blocks away is where the capture occurred.

It was just literally two blocks away from where the two military officers, Marco Cherise and Eric Lopes captured the creature around six o'clock, something like that, about two hours later, two, two and a half.

And then they took it to one little clinic.

And apparently, the doctor came out and took one look in the back seat.

And there was, you know, Marco Cherise, military officer with this creature on it.

And he's like, I don't know what that thing is, but get it out of here.

So then they went to regional hospital and that's where Italo was.

And so it went, it, when the women saw it, it was like brown or darker.

And then when he saw it, it was somehow whiter.

And it was ammonia or sulfur or some, some sort of smell.

And I have no idea where that awful odor came from.

I even went so far as to wash my nose with alcohol and water just to get rid of that smell.

And like, um, there was another one, which was one of the deceased ones.

And, uh, he said that the room where the, he did the performance of doing the x-rays that stank like for, they had to close that wing of the hospital down for days.

And they disinfected the whole thing.

And he said it took days and it was in his sinuses.

But even after being washed and disinfected, the epidemic smell still lingered in the ward.

And, um, according to the book by Roger Lear, uh, there was another creature that was alive that went under a procedure.

And so we're trying to find those guys right now.

And Roger Lear was contacting me.

And he was like, I know you're doing something on, on Virginia.

And I got to talk to you.

And, uh, and I said, I kept like postponing and postponing.

And, um, he goes, well, you got really angry with me.

And he was like, well, if you're not going to meet with me, I said, Roger, Dr. Lear, Roger, I, it's not that I don't want to meet with you.

And he goes, well, look, take my tapes.

And I don't know how much time went by, but I don't know.

I sent them back to him and he died.

And then, uh, fast forward.

And that was very unfortunate.

And then I just couldn't squeeze it in.

And the book was a transcript, transcription from the tapes.

Cause I had the tapes and I read the book.

And, uh, but there was one section that wasn't in the tapes that was in the book.

And that was, he met with two doctors from Humanitas hospital.

And they talk about a creature that was also undergoing some sort of procedure at Humanitas.

And then all of a sudden there's this crazy thing that occurs in the room where there's this communication and weird smoke and just crazy.

And the communication was basically like the entity saying to the doctors that we feel sorry for you, the human race, because you don't realize your potential, who you really are.

The same message with these school children, where it's like, you don't understand how special you are and your potential.

True potential and stuff like this.

And apparently, uh, Uber DeGio Rodriguez, who's one of the leading investigators, a lawyer, um, who's gone.

God knows what he has, cause he hasn't come forward and said yet.

He was shot at, and he had a gun.

He, and he shot back.

And he says he would put his right hand on the Bible.

He said he would testify, like, like he would, he would put his right hand on a Bible and he would take a public lie detector test.

About there being video and footage of this alien.

I know, and I saw with my own eyes, an alien creature kept in captivity in this 35 second video.

They tried to give the creature some fruit and water.

And the reason why they filmed this creature without superior authorization, it's because they were pretty mad that the American militaries were coming to Brazil to take all these material.

Not only the pictures, the footage, but the creatures itself and the spacecraft as they took it to the United States.

And right now, I'm willing to put my right hand tomorrow on a Bible and take a live public light detector test that everything I'm telling you is the truth.

So, like, after all the investigations, his life threatened and all the stuff that went down, he said he got to go to the base.

And then when Moment of Contact, the first version came out in 2022, that's when Peccacini came back on the radar and it was like, hey, you know what?

And finish this fight.

That saw it and drove it.

And that comes from you literally touching down in Virginia and on a piece of paper, like, do you know what happened in 1996?

People who are extremely afraid and admitting what they saw.

And all of those stories line up.

And it all lines up perfectly.

And then, so that's one type of person.

And then you have the other type of people that are, like, lying through their teeth.

And so, like, the commander at ESA is General Lima.

And, but he says it in such a, like, a condescending cynical, like, I don't care what you think sort of way.

And then walks away.

And that's when Euclides and Calado, the two young men from here, traveled all the way to the sergeant's school of arms in Tres Corazones.

Then the sergeant went inside, came back and said, no, but aren't you going to say anything about the case?

And I had never been arrested for doing my job, neither before nor after this case.

And that we, our unit, would be deploying, we would be moving out, heading directly to the city of Virginia.

We were given the order that we should proceed to follow a number of specific vehicles, which were clearly unmarked and definitely not military.

And afterwards, we went to Humanitas Hospital.

I noticed a container, a stainless steel table with a container on it, you know, with several doctors and other staff members holding clipboards.

And when I realized, I saw something completely different.

And that sight really startled me.

And it was always, it was like slipping between your feet.

And that was the former chief of police, Agriar, Pedro Agriar.

And he had, he had, he had, he had, allegedly, according to people that tracked him down, he had a photograph of one of the things.

He was invited in there and he said that he described it just like everybody else.

So now the piece we're missing is on the American side and we want to get with Humanitas Hospital.

And, you know, he-

Oh yeah. It's a great movie. And it's, it's, he just, he said, you know, this happened.

He said I participated. Absolutely. And are you at all conspiratorial about the fact that he just died and that you were about to go in a couple of weeks to go see him?

And he, and allegedly he has a photo of the ET being.

Yeah. And that was, that was, you filmed that. What?

We knocked. So it was really crazy. Actually, it was just a couple of months ago. And, um, we were, we were going to doorstep him on the way to Virginia. And I say doorstep and just show up at the door. Right.

And, uh, for some reason I was like, I want to stop and get a slice of pizza. And everyone's like, we got to keep moving. It was like five o'clock or 430 or something. I really was really hungry and I wanted to get a slice of pizza. So we stopped reluctantly. Half the crew was like, oh, we got to keep moving.

Well, as it turns out, it was perfect because we, the owner of the pizza joint, you know, gave us pizza, gave us like really good. You know, we took like an hour and we just spent a really fun time having pizza with the owner of this pizza joint near the area where we're going.

But it set us back at least, at least 60 minutes, possibly 90 minutes. But, you know, it was a little later. Maybe it was like seven, seven 30 at that point. And we show up at his house and they had just gotten home like 10 minutes earlier. So we would have missed them had we not gone and stopped to get that pizza.

And, uh, what we did was is we, you know, we started talking to him at the door. Then we went inside and we had, we had some, we had audio. One of us had audio rolling and the guy in the car outside had, you know, our sound guy had a, you know, it was remote transmitted back to a receiver. That was just, you know, the audio.

And then we're talking, getting to know his wife, his son. And then I said, would you mind if we bring a camera in here just to kind of, you know, document the moment a little bit, just ease our way into it. No, that's okay. So then comes the camera. We're all sitting down and talking and his wife, I'll never forget this. And I think I have a cut of it somewhere, but his wife had these, like her eyes were so big and like, kind of just like, and her wife was looking at her husband, like, like just,

wouldn't blink. And I'm looking over at my cameraman, Dave, and I'm like, are you getting, you know, she's just looking at him. Like, I'm thinking, does she, does she have the photograph? Like, does she, you know, I don't know. Is she worried that we're in there probing? And, and at one point we asked him, like, when things got more comfortable and he goes, I'm a, I participate, I'm a witness. He saw the creature under a tarp, maybe the bottom half or something. And then he went into, as a military base, the activity, helicopters coming and landing. He goes,

Yeah. Uh, and took the goodies, but, um, but, uh, he seemed to be in relatively good health. I mean, he, you know, he didn't look like he was going to win like a triathlon or anything, but he was in, I mean, he's in the movie.

Yep. And, um, and he just died.

Yeah. And he might've had a photo or footage.

Yeah. Well, we talked to two witnesses. One of the primary reasons that led us to him were two people that described, he pulled the photograph out and showed it. And it had, uh, one alive, one, one deceased creature. And it had, uh, military police and a, and fire department, uh, in the picture with their faces that, you know, that's according to the witnesses that we talked to. And when I pressed him on it, and I don't want to push too hard, but I definitely pressed him on it. I've got the footage.

He said, um, I was like, well, when I talked to you a couple of years ago on a video zoom call, you can, you confess that you had the photograph or at one point you had the photograph. And now you're saying you don't have the photograph. Like what's, you know, and I really pressed him on it. Um, what did he say?

You, you, you, uh, there's, uh, you know, and I feel the frustration from people out there like, oh, there's not a picture. There's not a video. First of all, I never give up and I'm not giving up. I will never give up. I'm getting closer. We are, as a team are getting closer and closer and closer. And the developments that are happening are unprecedented. It's an ongoing investigation. I'm not giving up. I think this is the case that's going to blow it all out in the open. That's my humble opinion, because I can't think of a better crash retrieval case involving the Americans.

No, I think it's the best recent case. And, and, um, again, I think if this were a murder case, you'd have more than enough evidence that it happened.

Yeah. No question. And so like, there's this, you know, you want a smoking gun? You'd be, maybe you don't have that.

But like, I, I bet you in the world of deep fakes, if you've produced a photo, the, the, the, the goalposts would move and there'd still be skeptics who'd say, oh, look at the photo is blah, blah, blah. It's blurry. Blah, blah, blah. You know?

And then it is what it is. It is what it is. Yeah. Um, Jose Fernandez is this, uh, air traffic controller.

And following that, two helicopters took off from the very same Campinas airport, proceeding to an entirely unknown destination, which we later came to understand was the city of Virginia.

They landed, collected something that no one knows what it was, then returned to Campinas, placed it inside the U.S. aircraft, and then they took off.

They were gone. And the mission was what we were told was silence.

So it was really funny, actually, because let's back up a little bit, but a couple of years, and I was just talking to Lou Elizondo about this.

And he was like, I need a copy. And little did I know about what was happening behind the scenes.

And I said, okay, sure. He goes, have you had any idea who's watching this right now?

And basically, Lou was like, okay, this case is absolutely amazing, but the air traffic controller who talked about USAAF coming in without any government regulations.

Exactly. But I kept hearing USAAF, and I was like, USAAF, what's this guy talking?

And that was one of the aspects that Lou really wanted to share. To this day, he hasn't told me exactly who's watching it, but I think it was like, maybe if there are certain restrictions on people like Lou or Grush, who knows?

Like they could show him the movie, show him the compelling case, eyewitness testimony, and then having the flight control.

And apparently this plane deviated from going to Sao Paulo to Campinas. And Campinas is where we know, according to all the eyewitnesses, including the guy that drove it, that's where the ET went.

So for the, have the United States, the USAF land in Campinas makes perfectly good sense. Like I said earlier, all the pieces of the puzzle line up, it all lines up perfectly. Like every single person, there's not been one conflicting testimony. There's been a date here and there where it's like, oh, well, maybe it was earlier, maybe it was later. We don't know, but everything else lines up perfectly.

And you use the United States Freedom of Information Act to try to get information from the Air Force about flight law.

And so, and from the U.S. to Virginia in 1996 and what came back?

Well, I tried to, I tried to cover all of our bases and our team, we filed a FOIA and in 2022, I think it was. Yeah, it was probably 2022. And I'd forgotten about it quite honestly, because it's like years went by. And all of a sudden we get a response from the CIA, which is weird.

I don't know. I mean, I'm not a huge FOIA guy, but I mean, the CIA, like really? And it's basically like, you know, cause I asked for records. I was thinking like, okay, so let's just like back up. Let's give it like a window of 10 days or whatever. So we know the incident happened. A lot of the sightings were on the 20th of January. So why don't you back it up a little bit?

Well, it was a 10 day window, two week window that landed in Campinas, get all those flight records. Because I was talking to an individual who for a long time was anonymous. And then he was so knowledgeable. I was like, wow, this guy's incredible. Who are you?

And he goes, well, actually, I'm a colonel in the United States Air Force. I was a fighter pilot, blah, blah, blah. And he has since come forward with us. And he had a really dramatic UFO encounter in 1980 or something like that. But he was giving me guidance on like what to ask and where to ask and all that stuff. And blanket statement from the CIA. Basically, that's like either national security classified or exempt from FOIA because of XYZ.

It's always a tell, too, when you request from one agency and then they forward it to the other agency, which the other agency would obviously have, you know, this article came out in the Daily Mail about the Office of Global Access run under the CIA around their rapid response, you know, global crash retrieval team. And the article is amazing. Like it mentions, I think, Doug Wolf as like the head of the OGA.

And so they probably would have been in charge of this sort of thing. So the fact that the Air Force is forwarding this to the CIA is such a tell. CIA runs all foreign intelligence, obviously, for the U.S. Such a tell that they were involved in this case.

I mean, it's honestly funny. It's like an admission of, you know, involvement in some ways. You know, I just interviewed a guy named Dan Sherman and he wrote a book called Above Black.

And he was a cool title. Amazing title. And same story. He was Air Force Electronics Intelligence. All of his stuff with, you know, his ELINT Electronics Intelligence career lines up with like I've I've had multiple ELINT people come out after this interview I've done with him saying this guy was definitely U.S. Air Force ELINT.

Like, like, like, just very matter of fact, very intelligent, kind of on the kind of traditional vector of of signals intelligence. And he said that he was part of this secret NSA program. And it was called Project Preserve Destiny. And it was he was supposed to do this kind of continuing ELINT education, you know, in Air Force. But while he was there, he was taken to this complex, this NSA complex at Maryland.

And this was in 1991 or two. And he was told to drink this, you know, drink and and then kind of hook himself up, like match the tones that he would hear with these headphones that this computer would would play and lock into them.

And that's how he would kind of gain telepathic access to alien communication.

And this was really interesting. Independently, this researcher FOIA, the Air Force said, does, you know, just asking for information about Project Preserve Destiny. His name is Noah Roddick.

Yeah. And the NSA, of course, gets back and says, you know, we can't, we did not confirm or deny the existence or non-existence of this program.

I got an email from someone and I could pretty much like, I could read it pretty quickly and determine, you know what I mean?

Like some experience I've heard, I've had been contacted by alleged witnesses and stuff like that for decades.

And you could kind of sift out the crazy pretty quickly.

And, um, I think it was like a year ago, maybe, maybe a little over a year ago.

I got this email and I read it and I just, I time stopped. I was like, Oh my gosh.

And it was basically someone that claimed, uh, I have the email. I'll show it to you offline.

And, um, claim to have been part of the Virginia operation from Campinas. It was a USAF. He goes, I was on the flight.

And I gave all the details. I'll let you read it. And, um, I was involved.

This is weighed on me for almost 30 years and my family.

Like it has to be this way, you know, blah, blah, blah. And I was like, I'll, whatever you want, let's do it.

I didn't hear anything for about 24 hours, maybe a little longer. And this individual, this individual said, Oh, my systems were hacked. And that wasn't me that wrote that.

Did you do some follow-up and research?

So, yes. And, and, but when, when this individual reached out and I have a Proton email now, which I'll provide to you, you can put it on the screen at some point.

You know, that's easily hacked and it really worried me when I got it.

And the feeling I had certainly from his response later was that somebody, he got a phone call, something happened, shut this down. I don't know. But it seems so authentic. Like, it seems so like this guy was really part of it. I don't know if that guy is listening to this message right now in any way, shape or form, like reach out. You'll provide the Proton email that I'll give you.

And, um, did, so is it plausible that what he was saying was correct?

Uh, no. And, and, uh, you know, since then I, I was putting out the program and then in record time, I put out the new cut of moment of contact, nine months from concept to completion to delivery, nine months, which is a history.

Like I, I have had so little bandwidth for anything else. There's so many things to follow up on. I'm going back and forth to Brazil.

Yeah. I, I was actually there for that interview. And I, I went around the country with Stephen Greer just because I was like, oh, this guy says he's got all this access to people.

And I wasn't even prepared for landing cases, a little loan crash cases back then. I mean, I heard about Roswell, but, but I met him and he was in his twenties and I was in my twenties and I was like, boy, this guy.

And he was so paranoid at the time. Yeah. This is the nineties. Well, he was beat up. He was paranoid. And he was talking about like, it was one of the interviews that I was on Stephen Greer's anyway.

Yeah. And I haven't, I haven't watched the whole interview since I operated the camera for that interview with, with Dr. Greer. And, um, but he left an indelible impression on me. Like I was like, shit.

Well, cause he was a Marine, right? Yeah. And I, that's why I mentioned maybe the connection with this guy reaching out to you. Maybe there's some, you know,

and the thing is, is like, I wasn't really prepared at the time to process like crash retrievals, anything beyond Roswell. I don't know. It's been a kind of a slow evolution for my personal, like my personal journey, you know, cause I'd heard about, I heard about that was my first case where I was like, oh, this guy's credible, man. I mean, I, I, I felt like he was credible.

And this egg shaped craft crashed into.

Dripping from it. And he had telepathic communication with it.

It was, it was buried for about a 45 degree angle and into the side of the, uh, into the, into the side of the, the, the, the cliff there, the, the, the ridge.

Cause there were plants and everything. And it was, it was weird. It was a, a, a purplish green color.

And it kind of like, like, like fluctuated. Like you couldn't really, when you, you'd look at it one time and then you look at it again and it would like, it's almost like, I don't know if it was like a lot of it was just changing.

And the being, the being was, uh, uh, basically sending him very similar signals that, that sent, uh, you know, uh, Venturelli, the, the neuroscientist and the, the, the daughters or the, the, the, sorry, the women.

Um, it was saying, uh, help me, help me. And he started to walk towards the craft and then they, they apprehended him. They beat him up.

Now, obviously the ultimate, you know, Holy grail of evidence that I'm bending over backwards to get my hands on and we keep getting close, uh, is film footage.

Yeah. Now I know through experience that if I do get my hands on it and bloody well, we've gotten close, uh, I got something to worry about.

Um, and I've thought about that many times, like, uh, could I upload it to a server? Could I send it to 10 different people?

That really vivid, I had a really vivid dream where I was in, I was in Virginia and I was in a very crowded area. I think it was like a conference or we were having a screening or something and, um, lots of activity, lots of things. And some gentleman walked up to me and he handed me a thumb drive and he just slipped it in my pocket and he just looked at me and he kept walking. I was like, shit, I've got, this is, this has to be the footage. Right.

But in my dream, I was going, what do I do? Like, and then I just felt this dude.

It should, it should always be like, okay, what actually happened? And then there's beyond that, there's speculation as to what those things are.

I often think even UFO researchers jump to the conclusion that it's a thing came from another planet when, you know, we don't know what these things are. That's why they use non-human intelligence, which on the one hand, sometimes seems sanitized PC and part of some controlled disclosure.

Like UAP is supposed to UFO. And I like UFO better than UAP.

We don't know. And you, you really just have to follow the evidence specifically. And you have great theorists, people like Mike Masters, you talk about them being beings from the future and maybe they are being, who knows.

But, you know, and I, okay, over the decades I've gone, you know, you look at what they do and that's pretty compelling, but then you look at what they don't do because all they'd have to do to, to reveal their presence openly would be to hover over the next Superbowl.

You know, they've done some pretty cool stuff. I mean, Phoenix, Arizona was pretty phenomenal. I was when everyone's under the night sky to get a glimpse of the hell Bob comment and that massive boomerang shaped craft and other crafts as well.

Pretty bold, pretty bold stuff, you know, but then you look at Travis Walton and it's like, well, they clearly, if you're, if you're going to take, if you're going to take the account of seven witnesses, you know, at face value.

They cared enough about him. He probably got in the way of the propulsion where they grabbed him, fixed him, and then deposited him in the area, in an area on the outskirts of town.

They got back in the craft and left. Like they didn't want to have contact. They didn't want to have communication much more than anything, whatever happened when he looked into the eyes of these creatures. So they're in on the secrecy as well.

Yes, exactly. If you take the, their accounts at face value that, but there, there is some level of contact. You'll mean, look at Rua. I mean, look at 1966 Westall, you know, thank you, Shane Ryan and James Rigney. Um, that case is compelling because, you know, once again, it was a school, 1030 in the morning, broad daylight, broad daylight, 300 plus witnesses standing out there watching this disc.

Zip around in the sky with a little airplane falling around it. And then the thing lands. And then the kids run over and a handful of the kids see it sitting on the ground within 10 feet. That's a pretty bold move. I would say.

Anyway, it's, it's, it's a complex, it's so complex. And I feel, I feel almost like I know less today than I did 30 plus years ago. Although I know the phenomenon's real. I know there's a coverup.

I know that the government, I say, no, I feel very comfortable. The government has got very definitive evidence about this, you know, bodies and craft and all that stuff. I just, I don't know what they know.

In fact, I just asked somebody who probably, I'll remain nameless, but I was talking to somebody that I feel would be in a position to know. And I said, I was like, how many people have the bigger picture?

And this individual was like, and I believe me, I trust this individual.

And, um, 10, 10 have the bigger picture. That doesn't mean they have the full scope.

But, you know, and I said, well, so like how many people know what you know? He goes, about 30.

Is it scary? And, uh, the individual's like, yeah, I guess it could be a little scary. Yeah. Mm-hmm.

And, um, I looked over and Leslie Keen was watching me have this conversation, you know, this is recently,

and I see her looking at me across the room and she's like looking at me, she knows.

She goes, I didn't want to interfere. And I'm like, just about, so I was like, well, what, well, um, it's like, well, what, what, what, uh, what's the intent?

You know? And then somebody like butts in and, hey, you know, I've always wanted to meet you.

And I'm sitting there like, oh, like, I don't know if I would have gotten it or not.

And this could be all wrong. I don't know. But, but that the intent was a little scary.

I don't, I don't either, you know, and that's, that felt like the framing of the age of disclosure, like there, you know, that there was some sort of, um, you know, they were prepping the battle space and they care about our nuclear assets because it's just like, we would do ISR on a foreign adversary or whatever. You want to know what they're working with.

I don't believe that. I don't, I don't. Um, and that's not to say, you know, if you're, you're a hammer, everything's supposed to look like a nail. And so if your job is American national security, like, you know, maybe that's the way you're supposed to orient yourself towards this.

But like, I don't, I don't believe that. And I don't, I don't think that should be people's a priori biases going in, especially if that's their first touch point towards, you know, the phenomenon.

That's, that's not my personal belief. And yeah, I mean, look, you just spoke to, you know, tell a ventrelli and, you know, this is the, this thing was like an angel and it was higher consciousness than ours. And it wanted us to know how special we are. And even that could be a form of deception.

You know, it's always like, you know, you guys are doing harm via like, you know, these environmental catastrophes that could be some sort of deception where they're trying to clamp down and control us. Who knows? But I think, I think knowing that they're bad somehow. I mean, this, this thing's been, whatever's been going on, it's been going on for a long time. I think well before Roswell, well before Magenta in the thirties.

You know, clear. I do think they do care about our nuclear stuff and are trying to enforce some sort of homeostasis of the earth, protect it.

But I, the, I mean, and you'll hear things like, oh, they activated the nuclear sequence.

And I actually think I, I think I got this with Tim Coleman when I was doing Out of the Blue.

And I'm sure a lot of you have heard it, but I was like, well, wow, it's amazing.

These, you know, these craft we're seeing over the base and these nuclear installation during the peak of the Cold War, blah, blah, blah, blah.

And he's like, yeah.

And I could see exactly why he was a launch control officer.

Because he was very measured and every word was carefully crafted.

And he was just calm.

Because he's going to be very methodical, measured, and, like, not panic and do the wrong.

And he's like, yeah, you know, James, uh, message was, uh, pretty clear in my book.

And, and, and Solace.

And you know what?

Most of those guys who are in Bob Hastings' amazing book, UFOs and Nukes, say that that's what they, you know, they're like, we don't know.

And not, you know, we're trying to deactivate your tip of the sphere defenses against us.

We're talking between September of 66 and March of 67, we lost 30 missiles to UFO activity.

And I do think what that guy said to you as far as, I think, I think there is a tip of the spear as far as government knowledge on this stuff.

Well, I was at this event and, uh, and, and I was with Leslie and there were all these men in suits and she's like, Hey, there's, there's guys are from the agency.

And, you know, I pretty much knew that, you know, they were very nice.

And I, I didn't assume anything.

I, I was like, Oh yeah, you know, and I've been investigating this case, you know, in Virginia.

And I've had people on the inside ask about you.

And I got emotional just watching it because it was, that was like 10 minutes or something.

And he was just like, okay, I guess you love this Jesse guy.

Cause I've been watching you work and I'm like, this guy's operating on another level.

Like you're just incredible the way you're putting the piece of the puzzle together and like doing deep dives and all these different aspects.

Well, I'm standing on the shoulders of giants and, and, and there's no way, you know, like you were making movies while you were painting fences.

Oh, people like Jeremy Corbell and Ross Colthart, a huge debt.

And so, yeah, no, it's a, thank you for saying that.

And I don't, I, and I, so many people, Oh, I heard you're going on.

It was like, when you called me and you said, thanks so much.

I re I really meant the, the world to me and, and, and Joe's become a good friend.

And you know, one of the things I'd love to say right here

and right now is like, you know, I really like to see more kindness

You know, and less, less impugning people's motives and thinking

Because, and there are all these people who I went into this world thinking,

And then I'd meet them and I'd realize that like, yeah, maybe they know a few

And they're trying to get the information.

And Rogan was, it was too much.

level thing and then Rogan obviously wants to get low level.

And then he would say like, I can't really fully, you know, tell you, like, I'll tell

Earnest and cool and smart and have like some sort of working worldview around this thing

And, and I think a lot of his, you know, uh, engagement with people on the inside were

his own, just really vigilante desire to like, get a lot of this stuff out and in any way

And he has some interesting stories that I hope he tells at some point.

I want to talk about just, uh, a compendium of incredible historical interviews and interactions

And that might've been.

But no, but I interviewed him and he told me about when he was taken in at Fort.

And some of the debris went to right pat on an airplane.

In any case, he said that he'd heard that there were some bodies and they went in and they

opened up with the caskets and he saw the body from the Roswell.

And he said, I'm going to go away.

And then, in 1947, Corso was post duty officer in Fort Riley, Kansas.

I went back and there was five crates there, like five or six.

I lifted one up and here's this body there and floating in fluid.

Then I looked at this head and all.

Then I put the end back down and the head was different.

So like an intelligence business, I just better put it in the back of my head here and wait

And he said that in your interview?

case that took place in 1997 in Roswell, New Mexico, and it was a scene because we had

And I'm making inquiries.

And why would you fly?

And he noted that all of the Roswell stuff was deleted.

And they sent him to an agency knowing that agency didn't have anything.

And this was all happening.

And then boom, this guy, you know, Philip Corso, who apparently, according to him, and

the coattails of the 50th anniversary of Roswell and all the attention it was getting.

And that there were a lot of discrepancies in the book that he was upset about.

And I, when he came to Roswell, there was a flurry of activity in one of the hangars.

And he was surrounded by all these news reporters.

And I'm looking at him and I'm like, I gotta get an on camera statement.

And I was like, you know what?

And I fought my way in there and I got my camera and I asked him a couple of questions

And then the next day I found out where he was staying, what hotel he was in.

And I just like, you know what?

And I went to the room and, oh, we were expecting you.

Like, you know, and, oh, really?

Like, I was like, so we sit down and we do an hour and a half long interview, whatever

I don't know, hour, hour and a half.

And, um, and then Michael Hessman arrives.

And he was late and he was all sweaty and flustered.

And apparently he had scheduled the interview that I got with Corso, but he showed up late.

Sit down and interview with Corso when Michael Hessman should have had it.

And as it turns out, he was all flustered and he was late and he had no sound gear.

He said, I got about, I would say it's about an hour and a half.

And he talked about why he's coming forward, because it was grandkids.

And he's like, I'm old.

And I remember thinking, because there was a lot of controversy after he died and he was no

I looked him in the eyes and I really did believe him.

And I think I still believe him to this day.

And I think he got a really bad rap and maybe it was too much too soon.

And he goes, I saw the bodies like he looked like a little kid, big head, big eye, you know,

And it was, uh, you know, on the paper, it's drawn, you know, the three fingers or

And, you know, I've seen beings in Peru that are skeletons with three fingers and the three

toes and three, three fingers.

And they carbon date to between 800 and 1700 years ago.

And one of them has a tridactyl fetus inside of it.

So, so one of them has a, a, a, a fetus with three fingers and three toes in it.

associated with them and further testing is being done right now.

And they have elongated heads, but they didn't undergo any head binding.

Virginia, Brazil, those things had three fingers and three toes.

And didn't Dave Grush say that some of the craft recovered were archeological digs or something like this?

So that could be the same thing that happened in Virginia, that being, and we could have literal mummies of those beings for all we know.

I got contacted by him in 2009 and I don't think I was ready for what he told me at the time.

And then quite honestly, I don't know if I'm still not ready.

And they said, uh, uh, Mr. Bigelow wants to congratulate you on a job well done for, I know what I saw.

And I thought, that's cool.

I looked up Bigelow and I kind of knew who, you know, I was like, oh, wow.

And so we arranged a time where I would go to his house and this is like 2009, probably.

And, uh, we had lunch together at his house in Las Vegas.

And he, he starts telling me about the complexities of disclosure.

Like, you know, the implications and they're so vast impacts on organized religion and this and that.

And I, I honestly, I hadn't really thought of the complexities of disclosure and I was like, yeah, cool.

You know, and he's talking about that.

And then he goes, he goes, uh, yeah.

And they're walking among us.

And I said, what?

And he goes, what do you mean?

I think I took that and I put it in the back of my head.

And then it would be funny if they were like right here, you know, and maybe they are, you know, and maybe they are.

Well, they, the, Hal Puthoff always talks about the UFOs engaging in what he calls signature management, where they control what they sort of look like or appear to be an optical and radar and that sort of thing.

And so maybe that's happening with the beings themselves.

And so who knows?

And I, and I want you guys to understand, like, I don't put something out into the public.

I, you're the opposite of a grif, a grifter doesn't start valeting cars and then makes the thing on the side.

And not like that, but it's like, once I pay back my investors, I always put my films on free platforms.

And that's the conclusion that I've come to.

I, I was at the airport a couple of years ago and I was flying to Arizona for a conference or something.

And I, I get up to the gate and I was like, shit, I left my sunglasses in the car.

But what, what is, did you, did you probe Bigelow more and you say, what did you, you know, what'd you mean exactly by.

He's probably invested more money in research with NIDS and OSAP and ATIP and all the various different people that he's worked with.

And, but as time went by and I learned more about the phenomenon, I started thinking, shit, man, maybe he's right.

And that seems to make more sense to me because a lot of people go, you know, and I get people go, oh, well, you're just, you know, you're concluding, you know, the texture of terrestrial.

And I've never said that.

And he says, I don't know what I saw. You know, it was like a burnt human being or something.

And he said, I don't know if he thought I was trying to deceive him, you know, like he knows, but he just doesn't want to talk about it.

I was very funny in the edit room cause I edit my own movies and that line just really stuck with me. And I really wanted it to, I really wanted it to, to hit with the audience.

And so I, I had, I did all the, uh, subtitles in the film and I did it at my pacing cause I'm a slow reader. And I always frustrates me when I'm watching a film with subtitles, when they come on too fast, I'm like, nah, you're going too fast. Slow down.

And when it came to super, cause he goes, this is military X talking about with the general meeting that he had with the general after he'd driven this creature from various places, he managed us ultimately campaign us.

And he's like, uh, he goes, no, no, that's not what you saw. What you saw was super natural.

And so I put super and then a beat later natural, as he said it on the text.

And then the other guy that I worked with the Boris, he changed it to have them both come on at the same time. And I went, no, no, no, no, no, no, Boris. That was intentional. I want that word. Cause it's memorable, right?

Um, yeah. Yeah. I mean, yeah, it's sort of remarkable and, and we, we don't know, you know, what these beings are and then, you know, even on the, on the, I keep going back to these Peruvian mummies, but they had these,

um, like osmium and cadmium implants, like on their heads. And, you know, I was just, I was playing around. I was asking cheap chat GPT, you know, what these things might be adaptive for.

And it's like, maybe they could create this local electromagnetic field, which would define how the beings are perceived or like modulate, you know, in other words affect the environment around them.

Yeah. Bruce Maccabee. He wrote FBI, UFOs and the FBI or something.

Yeah, but he primarily did photographic analysis. And he said to me years ago, cause I was like, why are all the pictures blurry? Like, you know, and people criticize that all the time. And he was like, if they're not blurry and they have a defined clear edge, this is 20 plus years ago. He goes, that's when you should be suspicious.

Because there's some kind of weird field around the propulsion we feel that causes a slight distortion. And so you'll always get slightly fuzzy edges and all that stuff. I was like, wow.

Wow. That's interesting. You know, and that was coming from a guy, PhD, like, you know, you have these lensing effects from the gravitational bubble.

Yeah. And, uh, you know, tip my hat to, to Dan Farah and Lou Elizondo. That was an exquisite accomplishment. Everyone can criticize how a film's put together, but trust me as a filmmaker myself, uh, I think that's going to help move the needle.

I was very impressed, you know, people like Rubio and James Clapper and all coming forward and putting their necks out.

So, um, I'm, I'm excited about the times. And I feel like Moment of Contact, New Revelations of Alien Encounters, I don't know, the timing seems to be perfect because, like, Dan Farah's film, Age of Disclosure with Lou Elizondo, is kind of everything that our film isn't.

And our film is everything that their film isn't, right? Mm-hmm . Mm-hmm . So you make these extraordinary claims, you know, and then you're, we're providing an extraordinary case.

One's top down and one's bottoms up.

Like, so I think that there, it's a really good, I think the timing and the pressure that I felt to get, because I didn't know when Age of Disclosure was going to come out. I'd heard it, kept hearing it was delayed, whatever reasons.

And so the fact that it came out and then like, you know, six weeks later, we're dropping this one, I think the timing's gonna be perfect.

Yeah. I think the stars are starting to align and I think that we can really get some traction in terms of like, and I think, you know, regardless of what you think about the current administration, I think if ever there was a time for full disclosure, I think it's more likely to happen with him than anybody else.

It was literally, the whole thing was just a bureaucracy because you have, you have a guy who's had dementia. Yeah. Who? And so then you're like, who's actually running? Oh, is it Jake Sullivan? Maybe his chief of staff? And then like, what's he up to? We didn't elect him. Like, what's the deal? So the most dismissive.

But I just feel like it's going to happen in this administration more than any other. I really do. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. And I'm, and we're going to be doing. Well, you have all these truth and transparency initiatives. I mean, one interesting thread is like Tulsi and Clapper kind of hate each other. I don't know if you know that. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So Tulsi's a current DNI and like they're going after Clapper because. She seems pretty amazing. I love Tulsi. Yeah. She seems like amazing. She seems. I'm a fan. I think she's great. I think she's, she's an honest, earnest actor. I think she's very brave.

And, um, yeah, I, I, I, you know, pray for her. It takes unconventional to get this stuff done. It does. So, um, but she doesn't like Clapper, um, because she says that Clapper was involved in Russiagate and this whole kind of, you know, um, planting stuff on Trump's calling him a Russian asset or whatever. So I guess what I would say to the current DNI is like, okay, like, do you want like Clapper or any of these guys eating your lunch on this very important issue? Or do you want to get in front of the DNI?

And love the guy. I hate him. Whatever. He was, he spearheaded something that was incredible. Right.

And he stood up for Lou Elizondo and I'm very grateful for that. But I asked him this question.

I recently unearthed it because I didn't put it in the phenomenon. And I said, like, what would you tell

And he just goes, don't be afraid. Don't be afraid to take it on head on. Like, don't be afraid to admit

interviewed, including the governor, including senators and members of Congress, it was the

actuality, and I even interviewed the former governor of New Mexico, who was a Democrat,

Richardson. And he goes, you know, quite honestly, James, one of the few things that I ever did in my

Are, it's become their like number one issue and they are going on podcast tours.

Yeah. And they're all pumped. Yeah. So Democrats and Republicans working together

Exactly right. Yeah. That's exactly right. Yeah. No, they're getting notoriety and people

want the truth. Yeah, they do. And they should get it. Yeah.

you know, so much and I know what I know, whatever.

I went out, you know, but, um, we, regardless of it, I think that every man, woman and child

And that happened like way later. And then project mogul, like project mogul is like later

and they're same balloons, but they're stringed together to make a bigger balloon. Like if you

about it, you know, it's like, and it's just, I've had it. Like, could you just please, can we

And I'm doing something else that I'll be cranking that out in under a year because I feel like now

is not the time to let up as much as I want to go spend more time with my family. And I do believe

me, it's very painful, like to be away from my son and I'm missing so many things, but I feel like

my, my whole career has kind of culminated to this moment right now. And I feel like we all as a

astronaut, Edgar Mitchell, you met him as well, right? Yes, I did. And he came back and he was just

from his moon, you know, excursions and he was just completely adamant that, uh, alien life is

in the government at the time. And he's still late nineties. He's still around.

Yeah. And he goes, and I talked to the people that subpoenaed him.

Yeah. And they said, he goes, he goes, sure. I'll, I'll come into the skiff, but I'm going to

So if you want to waste my time and yours, let's go.

Yeah. But let me tell you something interesting about Edgar, Edgar Mitchell. And I was really

close. I mean, I was, I would call him all the time for advice and he participated. I was

interviewing him in my twenties. I went to his house and in the middle of the interview,

and I was also friends with Buzz Aldrin's sister, Faye Ann Potter, very close. I used to

go to her house. I used to look at all the behind the scenes photographs and the moon

landings and all the stuff. And she would tell, she said that the NASA authorities said that

they were all given some kind of pill that they would die if anything happened. And also

the moon and they shot off into the space, they were going to, they would have something

Whoa. She showed me all these pictures and that, and that if, if, if, if, if Neil Armstrong

came out and anything happened to him, Buzz was not supposed to play the hero. He was supposed

to leave his ass on the moon and get back, meet up with, was it Collins that they-

Michael J. Collins. Michael J. Collins. Yeah. And so she, she told me that, she also told

Oh. Oh. I know. Yeah. And one of my biggest regrets was, well, I have a lot of them, but.

And you said, I want to interview you about UFOs. And then he goes, what did my, what would

my testimony do? When I was watching Joe Rogan talk about, and I respect his opinion, that's

and I got great detail. And could I have been deceived? Sure. I could have been, but I think

And they had to shut up about it. That's the third option.

Palmar Observatory, which is the most prominent observatory. And this was between 1949 and 1957.

they're, they're not satellites because they're pre Sputnik in 1957. And they look like mirror,

forties and early fifties. And they're in geosynchronous orbit. And so you, you, yeah.

And so you have to, and they, and they sort of pop up. Yeah. And so you wonder when you leave,

earth, do you just encounter tons and tons of UFOs? And if you look at Bluegill triple prime,

guess what came out? UFO material. And Harold Malmgren, this presidential advisor.

I'm so glad you got to him. Isn't that wild? And he said he was holding the pieces,

So are we just surrounded by UFOs? And, and maybe that's the secret. Maybe the,

you actually encounter just a UFO. And then you have, okay. Another one.

Very well could be the case. And all I can tell you is I was good friends with

to go to the moon? I closed my eyes and I listened to every, every detail.

Like just me in the room with him and the sound guy or audio guy, you know,

I think the presentation of the first Apollo mission was clearly manicured and sanitized.

And they were questioning the moon landing stuff. And I was like, yo, what do you think

about all this like imagery and dah, dah, dah?

And like the whole world was watching. He goes, it wouldn't surprise me if they

And like, and he goes, that wouldn't surprise me, but he goes, I walked on the moon.

And like, if we had one person and maybe we do, but I don't know of anyone. I don't

in the tens of thousands, if not more. And not one person from high level at NASA.

So has anyone from that few hundred thousand come forward and said it didn't happen?

he like did this whole review and he, you know.

And, and you had the Danny Jones, you know, but, but Bart Cybrell is, he's not associated

with the program itself, but there are, there are people who were, and there's the Gus Grisham

He died the next day and put a lemon on the thing.

There's some weird facts and you could, you know, if you think that the UFO program is involves

And if you could fake mission control, you know, like all the parts suppliers and all

I, you know, I think we attempted and then like, you know, I did there's to me.

And I think the video's weird.

And I was asking him about the moon landing stuff and he's like, well, you know, and

And we have stuff up there and you can see them.

And I'm not going to sit there and say, I'm, you know, I know what I'm talking about.

along the way to the moon and it's surrounded or something.

And then you have, um, John Podesta, who is Clinton's chief of staff and, you know,

together the briefing document for, uh, dignitaries and high level politicians and all that stuff.

UFOs and to the point where he said, if you don't do it, I'm going to, I'm going to publish,

And, uh, and so Podesta said, all right, well, the Clinton administration said, all right,

And they picked Roswell cause Roswell, obviously if it happened, right.

And so, uh, and then according to Podesta, Clinton was not happy with the answers they

And then Podesta basically entered a, you know, multi-decade long personal search for this

Well, they're, they're emails that have since been deleted between him and Tom DeLonge.

And these are, this came out over WikiLeaks, but, you know, I think this, this exists in

And it's him, uh, meeting with a guy named Bob Fish, who, um, I think might've worked at

Aerospace Corporation and El Segundo across from SpaceX, this sort of mysterious federally

funded research and development center think tank.

And they're talking about fast walkers and they're talking about things in space,

And, and you, to this day, you cannot use the freedom of information act on fast walkers.

He's like the, you know, UFO FOIA guy and, and was rejected.

And, um, and the defense support program, the DSP is the air force's outermost defense

But I think, um, I think it's, I think it's like 35,000 kilometers and up is

And that's where they're detecting these fast walkers.

And so, and so you have the Malmgren thing where you puncture the Van Allen radiation

belt and that UFO material comes out.

And, uh, general, uh, general starbird, um, he was there flew back to headquarters at

like 4 AM that night and William Ogle, who was overseeing the whole thing for Los Alamos,

And all, all of this is like public.

And you have this kind of public fight between, um, uh, you have on the one hand, Jeffrey

And, um, then D Dean Johnson and, uh, uh, Merrick von Rennenkamp.

Uh, and then, and then you have this other video where it looks like there's a white triangle

And I, that's where.

Merrick and D Dean Johnson versus the.

And I was watching the interview.

Uh, I was thinking to myself and this is just me speculating, whatever I was thinking

And then, and then you, then you have this.

And Lou Elizondo said he saw that footage.

He says he saw that footage and he says he knows where it is.

And I'm like, will you get that thing out?

We saw the video and we had it in daytip.

And then, and then when I talked to a buddy of mine, apparently somebody went in and they,

The problem is if I say it right now, they'll go and know mysteriously, a bunch of people's

And, uh, you know, that stuff is alive and well.

We need to provide people like Lou and Grush immunity so they can give us all those details

Give it like, if the presidential executive order say everything you know and let's,

All the science, let it out and flip it and say, if you don't say everything, you know,

And like, you know, like I said earlier in the show, if you don't believe Lou, if you

other alleged whistleblowers, uh, let's, let's give them immunity and let's put them

He says, literally, give me blanket immunity and I will say everything I know.

And he says he has all this data on crash retrievals, alien bodies.

Where and why can't I get the specifics to verify those claims?

So if the president waives or absolves my obligation to those NDAs and I get subpoenaed by Congress,

to reveal everything I know that I learned from my investigations, both unclassified and

classified into the legacy UAP, crash retrieval and hardware reverse engineering and NHI programs,

If I could be waived from that or absolved in some fashion by presidential order and if

Congress subpoenas me, yes, I would go and tell them everything I know.

And this type of evidence, you can't come by in the open literature.

And I can't discuss what it was, but I can tell you, yeah, it's a crash retrieval.

And there's alien bodies.

Oh, I swear on my life and everybody's, my children's life.

And speaking of, you know, the idea of...

Who's alive and a friend of mine and...

And have this, you know, specialized X-ray system that would not only be used as missile defense,

And there was kind of a takedown of the...

And like, if there are good points, please make them against this guy.

He was LBJ, JFK, Nixon, and Ford, you know, presidential advisor.

His mentor was Richard Bissell, who was founded Area 51 and was the deputy director of the CIA,

And there's a counterintel division actually of the CIA that like works with the Department of Energy.

And I think there are different Q clearances you can have.

And that's under the Department of Energy?

So you could hide these SAPs and WUSAPs under the Department of Energy?

And he was at a federal funded research and development center called the IDA, the Institute for Defense Analysis, which has instituted every...

And he said in a 2024 interview before he interviewed with me that his work at the IDA was actually a cover for what he was doing for the National Security Council in the White House.

And his mentor, by the way, was extremely high up at the CIA.

And this is over here.

And I love the deep dives that you do.

You're putting the pieces and they're all, it's all painting the picture.

And I'm always impressed when I watch how you do that.

Like, I'm doing it in my little way and you're doing, you know.

Just the deep dives and the stuff that you do is very impressive to watch.

And, you know, I'm not out here screaming E.T. from the hilltops.

It's easy to, it's easier and lazier to impugn somebody's motives and say that they're a bad

So I'm just going to criticize you and I'm not going to, you know, I'm not going to, you

It was really funny too, because I, I just put out the program and I met with a number

UFO files and stuff like that.

And I was sitting there looking at it in the skiff and I'm thinking, God, if I can have

And I was like, you know, you know, you're going to draw the conclusion after all the

Like, and they were both very quiet and John goes, he goes, you know, James, very soft,

And he's like, you know, James, I can't part my hair without the approval of the DOD.

And then he goes, and you can quote me on that.

But I was in the skiff and, um, it was just like in the movies, you know, I went in, I

went in, it was not too far from the Pentagon and I had to get a 48 hour background check,

And then I had to go through all the security, take everything off and go through all the,

And then they had these like glass tube, like things.

And you walk up to it and one side opens and you step in and then that closes and another

And now you're in the inside.

And then I go to a locker.

They probably got my phone data and I took all my, all my electronics and I put it in the

locker and, you know, and then we went to a big door with a thing and, you know, just

like you, almost like a bank vault looking door and it opened up and it was a, it was

And they walked me in there and I was just like, oh my God, this is crazy.

Actually before, before, uh, we went into the skiff and I had just gotten through security,

I had this badge and I was like, I really want a picture of this badge.

There's a bunch of different cubicles and take me down this hallway.

And then there was like a door on my right and a door on my left.

And there was like a, I don't know if it was a round table or if it was slightly like,

And they said, Hey, wait right here.

And like I said, I had a door on my, on my right.

And I had this open door on my left and I couldn't help myself.

And then they looked at me and they got up and they closed the door.

And then, uh, and then John Koskowski with another guy from OSI came and, and met with

me and open, open the door in that room.

And then we went inside there and that's when we had, I don't know, maybe a 30 minute

And in that conversation, was he admitting that the UFO stuff is real?

Cause I was like this case and this case and this case.

And then they did say that the phenomenon was mandatory viewing for anyone who worked

I was like, hey, you know, and, uh, and I don't even own the phenomenon anymore and none

that body of work and everyone that's in the credits deserves it.

But, um, but I gave it to Joe Rogan and, uh, you know, really appreciate.

And, uh, oh, so, you know, when we went to dinner with Joe Rogan the night before with

Jacques Follet and one other guy from his team, we always great, man.

You meet him and you hang out with him.

And super fulfilled and like humble and just kind and generous.

And anyway, I got up from the meal and I went discreetly out.

Like I was going to the bathroom and I paid for the meal.

Oh, and it wasn't cheap.

And, uh, and, and came back and he, you know, after like 20 more minutes, he's like, hey,

And the guy goes, it's been taken care of.

And Joe looks over at me.

And I got the impression, like nobody does that.

And two or three days later, I could, everyone's blowing me up.

And there he was rocking the phenomenon on his podcast.

And it was just so, it was so, it's so nice of him.

Then I had a driver pick me up and the driver, he was like, oh, you're going on Joe.

And I was like, oh, and he goes, let me tell you, man, I was really down on my luck and I

And I was just really struggling.

And he goes, I, I was, I was on to take Joe to someplace and I got the address wrong

and I, I got him lost.

And I, you know, 15 minutes longer than it should have been.

And I felt terrible.

And he's got all this stuff going on.

And man, I felt terrible.

And Joe's like, Hey man, wait here.

And Joe came back and he tipped him like $2,000.

He gave him some huge tip and he goes, that saved my life.

And I'm a random stranger, like just screwed up his, his ride.

And I heard that from just about everybody that I encountered in the Austin area about

how Joe would do a random act of kindness and generosity, help people.

He called me out of the blue and was like, just super complimentary.

And, and, uh, yeah, he's so generous.

And, um, what else?

And she was like, the only guy that called me was Joe Rogan, you know?

And like, yeah, he really, he really cares.

And he really does sincerely care.

And you hear all those stories behind the scenes of people that have had encounters with him and said nothing but nice things to say.

And I say the same thing.

And even an interest in any of this.

And it allows like more, you know, I find, I think I'm sort of this niche, like, you know, compared to.

And, you know, you're the, you're the devil.

And I just like, that bothers me because I'm friends with all, you're cool and you're a nice person.

And I'm friends with people that are both sides of the spectrum.

We're really close and tight.

And the internet allows you to do that.

You're, you're like this avatar that like, you know, you're some evil, like, you know, and you're not actually just like this full dimensional.

Like you have a human being with like a family and like, you know, it's like, we're all, it's all good.

When you meet them, like, I always say like, like I've said some things very rarely and particularly not publicly, but I said, I said this, you know, to this person's face.

I was like, Hey, you know, I really hurt because of X, Y, and Z. And I really appreciate it for you, you know, cause I feel like if I have an issue with anybody, I'm going to tell, say it to their face.

I'm not going to sit there and like, Oh, he said this.

And we all make mistakes.

And like, Hey, all you can do is go back and make an apology.

And nine times out of 10 people are like, you know what?

And I feel like if I violated that trust, I wouldn't get in the door with these people.

Somebody entered your life and said, you can't cover this.

And I made them the promise that I wouldn't.

And I respect that.

And they were like, don't take that further.

Don't, don't, don't mention that we showed you this and don't mention that we.

Um, I, I think the, uh, I think the Holman landing footage exists and I've talked to a

And I think that would obviously move the needle, particularly if you know.

Well, because I was investigating Socorro and that happened in 64, April 24th, 1964.

And in the process, I spent five years investigating that case on and off.

And in the process of investigating, I was reading all the articles.

And I came upon a couple of articles, uh, coincidentally, haphazardly, you know, written

And, um, she had talked about, uh, this landing at Holman.

And someone that was on the ground at the base that witnessed it, both military officials.

And apparently she was a respected journalist.

And, and I was like, Hmm, this is interesting.

And I was looking at it like, Hmm.

And that led me to, uh, Bob, uh, uh, come on.

Uh, the two guys that made the film, uh, UFOs past, present and future, Emma Nager and

Alan Sandler and Emma Nager in particular.

And then of course that led me to Colonel William Coleman, who had that dramatic encounter,

uh, with UFO and B 55 over Alabama.

And I started poking around and started as a side investigation.

in their film. Right. And, uh, and then that led me to, uh, to do Emma Nager who talked with the guy,

I digitized them all and they're all digitized.

Now I just have to go through them and edit them.

And I'm going to, and I'm going to put them all out there for free for everybody.

Um, uh, but anyway, and, and based on that, and then Alan Sandler was shown the footage by Paul Schartle.

Three came in over the base, two peeled away, one came down and landed.

And he goes, James, just like in a, in a sci-fi movie, there was no, there was like a, a seamless door that just opened and dropped.

Um, and, uh, he thinks it was our technology, our flying saucers that we had, and they dress people up to look like aliens as a staged event.

And that really came down and landed over the base.

And it was filmed on a tripod, which means they anticipated it coming.

And then the event happened either that or they just saw it happening because I asked those details.

And he said they were met with a bunch of, uh, military base commanders in uniform, got into a Jeep off.

And then the film footage ends.

And that it was, uh, that's what he thinks.

And some sort of device that they assumed would have been a communication device.

And then of course I'm talking to other people that have subsequently, since then, particularly

And that's how he became aware of it.

Well, we could go back and forth all day, man.

I love talking to you and you're such a treasure trove of deep knowledge when it comes

to UFOs and inspiration for it.

I know what I know talking directly to witnesses around the world and that's it, but you have

a much deeper understanding of so many of the complexities and intricacies from what

And I respect that, but it's great.

And the more questions you have.

And then you go, or, or it's just these beings and they're like from this specific place

and you like, no.

And it's like, I haven't gotten either of those.

Like it just keeps getting weirder and weirder as I'm sure you've experienced.

And so please, you know, don't put me in that position.

Go out under the night sky in the remote desert and look up and just realize just how vast

And the possibilities of life.

And it's like a hundred percent, like it just comes out at a hundred.

you know, and it was like mathematically, we are not alone.

And life is bizarre.

Life is absurd and bizarre.

And, uh, I think the framing of disclosure, it's both exciting because maybe we're on the

And I don't think the government has monopoly on an understanding of metaphysics.

I do think they have asymmetric understanding of maybe some technology and they might have

some more materials and might have some more footage and concrete evidence than civilians

And, and, and anyone can understand this stuff if they reach for it.

No, it's an honor to get to know you and, and, um, yeah, really, uh, you know, ride

And then like, I think about mainstream, I think about skeptics.

made under oath by garage and blue and.

And blue and all, all the others, um, of crash retrievals and live aliens and biologics.

And then, Hey, you know what?

And I give really quick examples of various, you know, Magenta.

And then, but the best case, you know, and then we do a deep dive into Virginia with all

And none of these people are coming forward in this new cut.

And thank God you went out there and got the footage and keep going back there.

And yeah, it's just, uh, it's an honor to speak with you.

And he, and he's still alive now.

And now the whole entire doctor medical community in the region are all supporting him, getting behind him.

And I'm told there are other doctors that are considering when the time is right to come forward.

So we're at the beginning of the beginning. I'm, I'm, I'm quite honestly very excited about it and we'll see how it's received.

And if somebody slips a thumb drive, that's real in your pocket.

Maybe it goes down in a, in a, in a way that's more manageable for you. I don't know, but I'm trying, even if it gets out there. And by the way, I'm going to make this abundantly clear. Unless I have to, if somebody gives me the footage, I'm giving it away for free. I'm not going to charge a dime for it.

I love that. If I have to pay for it, I'll have to recoup my investment to pay those people back and then I'll put it out there for free. But if I get it, I'll give it to the world for free. I swear on my, unless I have to pay for it, reimburse the investors. Yeah. Then I'll reimburse it and then I'll put it out there for free. Yeah. Yeah. Go to jamesfox.com. It's behind a paywall.

No, that won't happen. I promise. No, I think that's the right attitude along with like, you know, wanting other people to follow up on your research. And you're, you're the paradigmatic example of that. Cause you're having a Mar who's a good friend of mine and kind of. Such a cool guy. Yeah. The best. And he's kind of a correspondent for the show, but he's kind of, I think he's going to start his own thing. Yeah. I hope. And, um, he's going to go get some amazing footage with you. And so you've been so welcoming to me and him as far as.

You know, come with me. And. Oh yeah. That's not normal in the space. So this, uh, there's, there are a lot of people, you know, they call it. It's like, I want to get the quote unquote scoop. Yeah. And like, I'll even see like, I'll cover a thing and then somebody will try to like front run the thing. It's like, and I'm always like, great, good. You cover it too. We'll both cover it. That's like whatever. Yeah. Power in numbers. Yeah. Yeah. It's like, we, you know, so I appreciate you. And, um, this was, this was amazing, man. And, uh, I'm excited to, to do this and hopefully do this many more times. Thank you, brother. All right. Thank you, Gene.

Over the last couple of months, we've been designing the new American Alchemy merch drop, and I'm excited to say that the 2025 winner drop is finally ready. We now have 30 uniquely designed pieces that really reflect what American Alchemy is all about.

This drop includes epic t-shirts, long sleeves, crewnecks, hoodies, tapered sweatpants, hats, totes, mugs, and tumblers. The Fukushima Japan pieces, for example, have detailed left chest embroidery. The Morning of Earth designs went through multiple revisions to get the fit exactly right. And the Iron Horse tee is something I think will be a hit for anyone who loved the UFO cowboy or our atomic age shirts from our last drop.

We cut a lot of things that didn't meet our standards, and we're really, really proud of each of these items. Everything is pretty limited, so there's no endless restocks. Once it's gone, it's entirely gone. If you missed anything from our original drops and you want to go out and represent, now's the time to go grab something. So go to AmericanAlchemyMerch.com to check it all out.
