Keel Hauled: UAP Update

EPISODE 132
Recent revelations, reports, videos and hearings have been leading up to what many UAP folks call Disclosure. Some interesting things have come out, and a whole lot of nonsense as well. 
Spoiler: UFOs are real. Apart from that single fact, no one really has any hard evidence for anything else. So, they speculate.

07:28 - UAPTF Report (June 2021), more data needed, AOIMSG, HISCCC hearing (May 2022), more data needed, AARO, NDAs for whistleblowers negated, Disclosure is being slow-walked, more video footage
11:52 - Grey Area - Project Blue Book, Evangelicals, Kenneth Arnold, flying saucers, Roswell & Project Mogul, UFOs as cover story, scammers
15:36 - A Singularity - The UFO ecosystem - Brad Steiger's The Reality Game, 18 theories about UFOs (including the Magic Theatre,  the Overlord Theory, John Keel's Ultraterrestrials)
19:31 - The "Extraterrestrial Almanac", Tim Burchett has a press conference, everyone has a theory
22:33 - Bread and Circus - Congressional hearing (July 2023), David Fravor and Ryan Graves, David Grusch makes some amazing claims but offers no evidence, Grusch jumps on board with the interdimensional crowd, Grusch had had some troubles in the past, NASA creates the Director of Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena Research (Sept. 2023), hardcore Christians think it's all demons, true believers on both sides
29:55 - The Underwhelming - The Disclosure Project, Dr. Steven Greer, ARVs & the Wilson Memo, To the Stars Academy becomes To the Stars, Inc., Skinwalkers at the Pentagon, Jay Stratton has a book deal thanks to Dan Farah, Luis Elizondo writes Imminent: Inside the Pentagon's Hunt for UFO which has more than a few problems (remote viewing, nosy orbs), the Collins Elite & Legacy Program
38:14 - Personal Prometheus - AARO's report (March 2024), NASA's report (April 2024) - more data needed and stop bothering witnesses, Congressional hearing in November 2024 with Lue Elizondo, Dr. Tim Gallaudet, Michael Gold - more videos, people being threatened, an international arms race to back-engineer UAP tech, some tech in the hands of private companies

48:03 - Apocalyptical - Lauren Boebert is an idiot, UAP fans were not happy with Disclosure's progress, Grusch had a lot more to say, aliens are really evil transdimensional entities, Greer says they eat human souls while we sleep and also cries a lot
51:15 - Is it all disinfo? Are they all nuts? Are "they" really demons? Wild notions of what "full disclosure" will finally reveal (a real Conspiracy Theory of Everything [CTOE]), it's a vast spiritual war among creatures made of conscious energy
54:43 - Theorem - What we really know:- UAPs (and USOs) are real, some Evangelicals hate all this talk because they really do think they are demons and try to keep it all quiet; other ideas, less and less likely; the New York Post's video "Spooky Hustlers", those first three videos started it all but Brian Dunning examines them in "The UFO Movie They Don't Want You to See"

The Fermi Paradox: Here Comes Nobody

EPISODE 129 | The Fermi Paradox: Here Comes Nobody
If we are not unique as a species, an intelligent one that builds civilizations, then there must be lots and lots of other civilizations out there in the galaxy and the rest of the universe beyond. But if so, where the hell is everybody?
That’s the question at the heart of the Fermi Paradox. And this has kicked off a chain of reasoning and speculation that crosses disciplinary boundaries, and lets us start to envision, not just what might be out there, but where we ourselves want to go as a global civilization.

Estimated Prophets: Nostradamus & Cayce

Even though almost none of the things that prophets say will happen actually do, we still persist in believing in the capability anyway. We do not like to change out minds very much. Two of the biggest prophets that still hold sway today over Western culture are Nostradamus and Edgar Cayce, and we’ll take a look at each one in turn.

EPISODE 126 | Cognitive Biases and the Brain: Thanks, Evolution! (Because Reasons 11)
The first of two episodes looking at cognitive biases - this one at how memory works and how we prevent input overload by filtering out information. Hopefully, this will give us some insight into why people think they way they do.

Last Flight: More Airliner Weirdness

EPISODE 125 | Last Flight: More Airliner Weirdness
While it's totally normal that things break, sometimes there is also some kind of secret or mystery around something as monumental as an airplane crash or disappearance. And so lots of "theories" get spun, some by those who have lost someone dear to them, others by those who seek to profit from the disaster. 
This follow-up episode to our previous one about airplanes, One of Our Aircraft Is Missing, is likewise dedicated to my godson, Vova, or Rusty, who just loves, loves, loves, loves commercial aircraft.
