Heat. Heat. [music] [music] >> [music] [music] >> Ladies and gentlemen, uh I am very very excited about tonight cuz we got a stacked a stacked card as they would say in the UFC. Really good undercard, solid main event. Uh you guys have been left in the dark about who the guests are because there are multiple guests tonight. It's a really fun show. I I'm I'm glad you all made it out. You won't regret it. Um but to begin, I do want to bring some friends out here. Really close friends of mine actually. Uh some of my closest friends in this space and they've been really uh welcoming and they've been like brothers to me. Uh, one of them has a successful YouTube channel on sort of consciousness and philosophy and the other one is a sixtime US memory champion. >> Yeah. Wild. So, we're going to have some really good conversations to get us started. Ladies and gentlemen, please put your hands together for none other than Michael Phillip from Third Eye Drops and Nelson Delos. [applause] [cheering] >> [applause and cheering] >> Grab a seat, folks. Grab a seat. Any of those? I'm over here. Ah, let's get comfy. Don't mind this the Brazer sign back there. I'll tell you about it later. Ah, this is nice. This is nice. This feels like I'm in like my living room here. It's very comfortable. >> Very cozy. So, um, in a nutshell, in a small nutshell, we'll start with Nelson. Can you I mean, you're an inspiration to me. I met you years ago when I was doing magic stuff and I was like desperate to like increase my skill in magic and I saw you on a Netflix special and then I reached out to you because you had done these insane memory feats. Like he this guy's memorized he he'll be humble about it, but he's memorized like 10,000 digits of pi. >> Wow. >> Wow. Like to give you to give you like a small hint on how hard that is just to say the numbers. It it it could take them up to 3 hours. >> Yeah. It's not fun. >> It's not fun. So, strap yourselves in cuz >> How much time we got? [laughter] >> Uh Nelson, tell us about what you do. >> Yeah. So, my uh whole stick is I learned how to memorize things. I never really had a good memory. My grandmother um passed away from Alzheimer's uh which was unfortunate and a whole thing our family went through. But that was what inspired me to start working on my own memory. I didn't know what that meant, but I discovered that there are memory championships and uh that people who compete in them train their memories. I never thought that was a thing, but I was curious and learned how to do it and took it to the nth level. Yeah. And here we are. And you are uh you won which memory championship? 2025. >> The most recent was 24. >> 24. Yeah. Okay. >> And then I stopped. >> And then you stopped. >> Any plans on cuz you said you'd stop after five. I know. And then you you did it again. >> I don't know if you were back there when I said it, but uh I'm going to compete in two weeks at the 26 championship. >> No way. >> Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. [applause] >> Thank you, Nelson. Yeah. >> Uh and this here is Michael Phillip. Uh >> [applause] >> needs no introduction. Also has a great memory. Um, but for esoteric and deep philosophical western esotericism and and a bunch of other wonder nuggets. Tell the audience for those of you who don't know about third eye drops what it is you do. >> Oh my god. Well, is this is it on? Yeah, this is on, right? >> Yes. Let's play it. I mean, what Chris said, I think is a pretty good introduction. And all of that leaves into this topic of high weirdness and UFOs in a way that I love talking about and I can't really help myself from talking about it over and over again. And it's funny that you call what you do a shtick because it's really like the furthest thing from a stick. >> Like if that's a stick, I don't know what the hell I do. [laughter] Yeah, he's got an actual skill that he's developed. Like his brain is so huge. >> Um this is really fascinating. This is you guys you guys have you've not done each other's like you haven't been on his podcast, right? But it needs to happen for sure. >> Yeah, definitely needs to happen. Um you know what's interesting? there is like a correlation here while we're just like chatting away and before we get moving on but there is a correlation because like I know in there's a book called Moonwalking with Einstein which is a great book Josh Fer and it's this uh yeah all right Josh is here um and there's a there there's it's this guy's a sports journalist who learns about u memory athletes and then tries to compete and takes a year to practice and then enters the national memory championship and wins it and he writes a book about it it's amazing but in there he talks about the history of memory and how it goes back to like the Greeks as well, which you're very interested in. So, I thought that was like a >> Yeah. >> interesting connection there. >> Yeah. And I mean back when I learned about that I that that was the one story you'd always hear about the genesis of memory techniques that there was this tale of Simonades was in a hall and uh he he stepped out for a moment and the whole thing came crashing down and when they were trying to identify the bodies of the people who were around the table um he used his memory and imagined their locations and that's kind of what the the the classic memory tool that we use called the memory palace is based on. And so it goes back to the Greeks, but it goes even further back than that. Uh I didn't know that until, you know, the last few years when I discovered that, but you know, the Greeks use it. Um civilizations before that used it because they had to keep progressing their their their stories, their song lines, and it was all through memory. Yeah. >> Very interesting. And now we don't need it because we have phones. So, you know, throw it out. It's not going to serve you. Uh we got AI slop. Um, we got vibe coding. Who needs memory? Speaking of which, do you guys like this uh little interactive thing we got going on? [applause] It's pretty cool. Um, something you might not know about Nelson as well, if you follow my channel, you might. But, um, this is actually something we all have in common is Nelson first of all got me. He is the reason I started Area 52. Uh, which is very cool. like we were talking about uh remote viewing um and how so he was it's a very strange story but uh somebody reached out to him on a Facebook group that he was on a memory group and it was like this guy recruiting people for like some hedge fund who wanted to train people to remote view the stock market >> memory athletes specific >> memory athletes specifically and so instantly I was like whoa like that's so compelling you know you're putting money you're putting an actual number on this thing that I thought was not real and Um, and they taught him and he did fairly well. He had some like incredible hits and then he taught me and I got so fascinated that I documented my journey and I was going to post it on like my magic channel and I was like this isn't for them. This is they're not going to like it, you know, and they're not going to understand. They're not going to go deep enough. They're not going to go into the research and so I started area 52 and like so you're directly responsible for for the channel. So, >> thank you. >> Thank you, Nelson. [applause] And that was a huge catalyst for me, too, because who who's been watching Area 52 since the beginning, by the way. >> Yeah, [cheering] those I want Chris to bring back those early investigations because I absolutely loved watching these two go down that rabbit hole of remote viewing. And that's actually what led me to reach out to Chris and ask him to come on my show. And then that led to me going to Monroe Institute and both of us sort of having out of body experiences and you having out of body experiences. So yeah, there's yeah, some interesting overlaps. >> Yeah, there's like a there's like an interesting energy here that brought us all together and I'm very happy that >> yeah, >> we uh we did make it here. Um speaking of which, there is another interesting energy uh that we've attracted and that's all of you. And I've asked you uh in an email to, you know, provide me with perhaps an experience that some of you have been through and a lot of you came through ton of submissions. So I want to thank you first of all for all of that. That's incredibly um I mean it's not lost on me that like it takes a lot to like share that and volunteer yourself, you know, to be uh to be a guest on this show. And I believe uh somebody who we chose is here tonight. I'm looking. Yep. And uh what is the gentleman's name? Um Yonyi or Christ Salvatore. That's right. Salvatore is here tonight. Sorry, I forgot the name. There's uh I read through I think 30 submissions like literally some of you some of you wrote [clears throat] me a whole chapter uh but uh very compelling you know nonetheless I'd interview all of you. So thank you so much for everybody just actually putting yourselves out there. Uh but I would love to bring out our guest a local from Oregon that has a story to tell. Let's give it up for Salvador. [applause] [cheering] >> [applause and music] >> Keep it going for Salvatore, everybody. [applause] >> You prefer Salvador or Salvatore? Am I saying it wrong? >> Salvatore or just Sal? >> Or just Sal? I like S. Sal seems like a chill guy. Um, Salvatore. S. Um, you had a really compelling story. You actually have like a lot of history with the phenomenon, it seems like. And I I I want to get into everything, but uh you know, obviously might have to be a separate episode. >> Understandable. >> Yes. But I would like you there's a story right at the top um that you told and I would love if you could share that with the audience tonight. >> Yes. It was September 30th um 2023 um driving on Route 99 between Eugene, Oregon and McMinnville, Oregon, where I live. Um Shout out McMinnville >> two-lane highway. We had just got done doing a full moon ritual with some friends and don't gloss over that. [laughter] The hell does that mean? Like what is this? I just like did you turn into a werewolf? I don't know what that means. What is a fulman ritual if you if you don't mind? For me, >> it's goddessor orientated. And I have >> a minimum of 15 years of western esoteric magic behind me. >> Amazing. >> And at least 5 years of shakta tantra behind me. >> Wow. >> Which I had no choice to go towards because as you discover what you're supposed to do on this planet, that's what you should do. >> Incredible. Very cool. Still not sure what what the ritual is, but yeah, let's let's move on. [laughter] >> So, we're driving um north on 99 99W it's called, and I notice at a certain point there is a vehicle tailing me extremely hard with one headlight. And um you know I'm I always have a mantra on my mind while I drive. Though it's a dangerous thing to do because driving is not the time to go into any kind of a trans state or anything like that. You know, you need to focus on the road. But that's just a it's a mindful practice to always stay present. And and I I bring that up because that's my life. You know, that's what I do. But anyhow, um I'm driving my wife Natalie, who is here next to me, to my right in the passenger seat. >> It's dark out, >> close to midnight between 11 and 12. >> And to the right, out of nowhere, uh there's there's a vehicle behind me like tailing me really hard. And just when I get to the point where I'm like, man, something doesn't seem right. Like, does this person want to kill us? You know, >> all of a sudden, a extremely bright green with a tiny bit of purple, but predominantly green, what looked like a comet >> exploded ex um the meteor showers. >> Yeah, the pades. Yeah, like the meteor streak across. >> This was big, close. It should have hit the ground. It lit everything up like the whole inside of the vehicle. And what appeared from it instead of smashing into the ground was a silver classic shaped flying saucer which somewhat looked like that but more seamless. Wow. More perfect. Um and it had all white lights flashing around it. I'm not good with noticing heights like 100 ft, 300 feet, but if I had to guess, I'd say 100's too low, 400's too high, maybe a couple hundred feet to start. >> Just to our right, the whole situation lasted about a minute, which that's a long time. >> That's a very long time. Yeah. And I I don't think it left our view till we just couldn't see it anymore because, you know, it's it's very pastoral that drive, but you get pockets of trees, a lot of farmland, and it slowly hovered towards, you know, our right away from us, starting very close to our right side. And um man, you know, as soon as that happened, also I noticed that that vehicle was not behind me anymore. And and that was very strange to me, you know, like what happened to the vehicle. >> Um, >> and that was a single light behind you, right? >> A single light. >> Yeah. >> That that and it was like a car from the 1980s. I don't know what. >> Interesting. You know, >> the so the disc is in this clearing as you're moving past like these farmland, these trees. It's a silver disc. What time of day is is it again? >> It's between 11 and 12 at night. >> Okay. So, it's pretty dark, but you're seeing it illuminated because of the lights that are on it >> because of the white flashing lights that are flashing in a circular all around it. >> Oh, wow. >> You know, and it was to be more ex I mean, I have pinpoint location. I can point to you on a map where where this happened and you know it was on Route 99 just past Monroe, Oregon which is a town of a few hundred people. I mean >> yeah. Wow. I mean give it up for S here. That's an [applause] amazing sighting. Um what did you do in that moment? Did you feel like I need to pull over? I need to keep going. Were you like what was that like? What was the reaction and what happened after that? >> There was definitely an adrenaline spike when it happened. I mean I don't care how much meditation you do. [clears throat] Uh you know this was very nuts and bolts on the ground and I'm driving. You know I don't care how many astral experiences you have um conscious outside of the body. You're driving. you you've got to be focused. So, and and I think that's what was out of all the amazing experiences I've had outside of being right here in the body, this was just so amazing. And my wife didn't want to talk about it at first, >> you know. She was just like, I I need to process this, you know. Um and I said, look, we've got to talk about it, you know. And I mean there's I mean the conversations have not ceased in our small household. Um >> I bet. >> Yeah. >> Does uh is she here with tonight? Is she? >> She is. Oh, nice. Yeah. >> Good job. Shout out to the plus on's by the way. >> Great time to call out the plus on's. Thank you plus twos. Everybody joining who's been dragged here against their will. [laughter] So we appreciate you. We really do. and you know just suspend all the things that you have in your mind, the preconceived notions, hang out with us in this weird little, you know, space. Thank you. But uh yeah, that's really that's really remarkable. But uh Michael, do you have a question? >> Yeah. Well, two things come to mind for me right away is despite the fact that it was nuts and bolts, do you think the fact that you were doing this ritual or the fact that it was a full moon could have something to do with it? Like it it makes me think of like you know John Keel talking about window areas or there being like these times where the veil is thinner where things may be able to like poke through or something. Did you get that kind of a sense? >> Absolutely. Because yeah there's no doubt about it that you know and you know I was kind of when I told this story to Muon when they interviewed me >> Oh you reported this? I did. Absolutely. >> Very cool. Okay. >> It took a little courage, you know, like it it took me a little time. >> Good for you. Yeah. >> But it was like I couldn't get through the interview without bringing up bringing up my spiritual work cuz I spend a lot of time in the temple space. You know, I sacrifice fun times for that. But the temple space becomes fun times even though it seems boring. But um there's just no doubt about it. And I've had prior experiences, you know, that that kind of prove that. And I I mean, I could literally talk all day if I get too much into that. But the short answer is definitely yes. >> So the the the moon has something to do with thinning the veil. Is that >> Well, I mean, that's kind of just like common lore, right? That like when it's a full moon, there's like sort of a Yeah. >> Yes. That the moon, but also do you do you only do ritual during the full moon? >> No. >> Or no. No. Do you do you do ritual? Do you sit there as boring as it is and do it when you don't feel like it? How much energy and time do you put into it? And these things do thin the veil. So it's like you you can't stop these practices, you know, the the the building of the astral body and learning what that is is only the beginning. You can't stop, you know. It it has to go on. before. Was there anything leading up before that big event? Was there any small things that evening that were like off or different? Well, as I've slightly alluded to or somewhat alluded to, it's like yes, because it's part of my life to do these practices and it's led to experiencing that reality is more than just us sitting here with these physical objects right now. But that phenomenon with the UFO is the last thing I expected to come out of this, you know? I mean, >> yeah. Yeah. You're expecting something perhaps non-physical to interact with you or something maybe a little more subtle uh synchronicity or something perhaps not a physical nuts andbolt silver disc. That's pretty I mean that's Yeah, but it has I I agree. I think you know it would be all too strange for it not to be related. Do you know what I mean? It makes more sense in this case that it is related. I would I would think. >> Yeah. >> Yeah. >> I was going to ask, you know, it's been three years, right, since that happened. Afterwards, were there any other notable kind of somewhat seemingly relatable events that happened? Maybe after is a residual effect. I don't >> Absolutely. And without even getting into that second incident, um just on that drive for one, >> okay, >> there have been more than one experience of us both seeing simultaneously white or green orbs vertically shooting out of the sky straight down and they would disappear behind trees. Also, well, maybe this is getting a little too far into the weeds here, but I mean, we're in the right spot. These are the weeds people. We are the We are people of the weed, both in perhaps metaphorical and, you know, literal sense. I This is Portland. All right. There was an evening at home after a night of ritual and offerings in my own home temple space that I then laid down and continued with my mantra work. And a lot of things that happened for me astrally are between the point of wake and sleep. A lot of other people it's after that four or five hours where you hit the cycle. For me, it's that point between wake and sleep. And I'm doing my mantra, which is Sanskrit, feminine Sanskrit, Beija words, basically. I won't say what they are. I won't understand it, so it's all good. I don't speak Sanskrit, but yeah, go ahead. >> And I become conscious in that in between space, and I'm seeing through my ceiling. And I knew I was seeing through the ceiling of my bedroom because there was about onethird of the ceiling to my left left. So it I wasn't hovering outside of the roof. I was still like level with my bed, my consciousness. And I look up in the sky and I see what looks like a white star. It's dark, right? And I say to myself in this state of of lucidity, right? Oh, it's a star. As soon as I said that, it moved and came closer to me and got bigger. And then just to the left of it, one of those white orbs shot down right next to it. So, that brought a lot together. That was a moment of bringing my spiritual work together with this phenomenon. >> Right. what you had seen with your eyes in the objective physical realm, you had now also had some non-physical confirmation of what that was. >> Exactly. >> Very cool. So, do do you believe that that that thing that went down in the in the in the physical projection of it was some type of spiritual or non-physical thing sort of bleeding into this reality? Is that fair to say? >> It is. It's exactly what I'm getting at. >> And And what do you think that is? Well, it's definitely intelligent. Uh, I can't say exactly what it is. I could speak with a little bit more certainty of my actual spiritual work than this, but even though it's bleeding into that. >> Yeah. >> Um, it's intelligent. Likely much more intelligent than I am. >> Yeah. >> Um, that's for sure. Yeah. >> Incredible. You're a very fascinating person, Salvador. I give it up for this guy. I mean, [applause] yeah, I'm very interested in everything you're saying. You have obviously so much to share. Do you have somewhere where uh uh people could contact you if they wanted to or if they wanted to know more about your practices? Is that something you share or is that something you keep close to the chess like? >> Um I I don't have any like channels to reach me. Um um but I do have a lot of experience with um uh cabala and archangelic planetary magic. That was my western practice. If you had to direct someone like me who's a complete like layman muggle in this world, uh I'm very like I've barely dipped my toes into any of that. You've probably gone a lot deeper, you know, obviously on a lot of this than I have. Where would you direct me to start learning about this? Like where would I go? >> Well, that's a that's a big question. Um, >> that's why I asked it. >> There's so many books to read. Like, you know, and and >> I don't have a classical education. Like, I spent years like I would break up my sleep >> and read these books and do ritual and I'd like wake up. I'd sleep for three hours and and um there's a lot of books, you know, Francis Barrett, the mages, the mages. Um uh uh the Heptoon was with the the you know, the first three books of oult philosophy. The fourth book is the one that the heptoron's in. But there's just so much like you need to build a library. I actually still read physical books. Not um >> Yeah, same. >> Physical audio books. >> No. Yeah. No, I love reading, too. >> It it has to be it has to be a passion. It has to be something you tr you truly want to need to know that there's more to this planet than what they're trying to get us to believe it is. I think you're on to something, S. Ladies and gentlemen, please, [applause] a warm round of applause for this very brave man. Awesome story. Thank you [applause] so much. Can I give you a hug, sir? Thank you, man. Give it up for S, guys. Come on. [applause] Wow. Wow. [applause] Look at us starting off with all the all the layups, all the easy stuff, [laughter] right? Easing into it. No, flying saucers. I mean, this was 2023, I think he said, or Yeah, 23. >> Flying. That's why he's here. >> That's why we brought him. [laughter] What's the 800th number of pi? All right. Sorry. Um, >> seven. [laughter] >> They're not going to look it up. Um, >> is is it though? >> One in 10 chance. >> Yeah. [laughter] >> One in 10. Um, no, but like it is wild because you don't hear very much about flying saucers, you know, in the 2020s and on. And so I'm I'm very happy to know that they're still here. That's like that sustains me. Uh, what do you guys make of this? Yeah. >> I wonder why I never have those experiences. >> Yeah. >> I would love to have that experience. Um, >> but you've had like astral experiences, >> but not a nuts and bolt thing like that. As a kid, I always grew up wanted to see the craft a craft of something, you know. >> I've definitely seen some, you know, >> questionable shapes and lights and stuff, but >> Yeah. >> Yeah. Who? There was somebody who said this. It was on one of these recent shows that we did. I forget who it was, but it was like, if you're not sure that it's a UFO, then it's probably not a UFO. And I and I I I tend to side with that, right? Because if I see a light doing a movement and it's like a it's a triangle or something, it's like, yeah, I don't know what that is. I can I can tell you what it's not, but I don't know all the variables. And so I'm always there's always a part of me that's like h I just my mind can't go to that's definitively an alien or whatever. But a flying saucer is one of those things where I'd be like yeah that's it. That's it. That's the one. That's undeniable. >> But you had a a triangle go over your house. >> Yeah. Yeah. >> Montreal, right? >> Yeah. Yeah. Um but again, you know, >> military there's like you know what I mean? Like I have a I have a sneaking feeling and not maybe not all of them, you know, because there are um you know Bashar Daryl Ananka, I interviewed him in in Los Angeles a few nights ago and his encounters in 73 of which there was two was the same triangular craft witnessed by multiple people with like the lights on the ends and the one in the middle. And you know, part of me thinks that like in 5 10 years from now or maybe 2027 or whatever, like government's going to say ah it was us and it's going to like kind of negate everybody's sighting even though maybe some of those triangles are not the government but I feel like that's what's going to happen. It's kind of like the stealth bomber like you know there was like legend of like this you know anomalous undetectable craft but yeah you know what that makes me think of like the closest link has anyone read secret machines the first book the gods book um that's one of the ones Lenda did and there's a whole chapter in that book about the relationship between like western esoteric magic and the flying saucer and he makes a direct um you know correspondence between like the magic circle and the flying saucer. And I'm going to get parts of this rap wrong, but it's something to the effect of like maybe the flying saucer is some kind of manifestation of the magic circle, whether it's like someone doing rituals in our dimension or someone in a different dimension doing rituals that they're like >> or someone in a car doing a ritual. >> Yeah. Yeah. Right. Like Yeah. Exactly. So, I mean, you know, you see like the 2D versions of these magic circles in these grimoars like the heptaron or like Lesser Key of Solomon or like whatever. And it's kind of like the idea of, you know, you're you're within that space when you're doing this ritual. And that's like keeping you protected with like angelic names and secret names of God and stuff like that. But maybe it's also like projecting something somewhere else and it's manifesting some kind of saucery manifestation. I don't know. >> Yeah, you would think >> the one thing that sure is I don't know. >> Yeah, but you would think there'd be they'd look more gothic in that case. I feel like they would be less uh mid-century modern. >> Yeah, [laughter] >> that is true. >> They look very like Swedish design like these things or something. You know what I mean? Like >> Yeah, like Scandinavian UFOs or [laughter] the like I mean this sports model, you know what I mean? Like this thing was a like when I first saw that craft like even like the Billy Meyer photos, it's like it's a beautiful vehicle. Like it's a be like objectively it's a beautiful design like this is like the Lamborghini. This is like the classic car of UFOs, you know. So whoever if it was them that designed it. There is um there is design. They have culture unless it's completely based on just geometrics and I'm wrong and then that's why it's appealing to me. I don't know. >> It's timeless too, right? like you know those the same pictures that we have from the early >> 40s and 50s. >> Y >> the same like it still feels like futuristic. >> It does. Yeah. Yeah. >> From somewhere else, you know. >> Yeah, it does. Still has that Jetson's vibe to it. [laughter] >> Yeah. >> I always uh side note, I always um I hated the way that in the Jetsons they had like they had a remote that did everything. It just had one red button on it. And like that was the future I wanted. And now I have a remote with 300 buttons on it. And I have like a a 20page leaflet on what my remote does. And it opens up a menu with 400 other buttons on it. I'm like, this is not what we were promised. >> No, that was not what we signed up for. >> We want the metal button with a little antenna, you know, the little red button, and you just does everything. It washes you. All right. Anyway, so I digress. Mhm. >> Um, >> I was going to ask Michael, have you ever had an experience in the sky? >> Not like that, you know, and and oddly enough, the one the closest thing I've had to a UFO experience, it's not that exciting of a story, so I'll tell it in like the shortest version. It's that light that I saw above Monroe Institute that I think I told you about. like it and it's so weird that it happened there, but um within probably 15 minutes of getting to Monroe Institute for anyone that's seen pictures or has been there, there's like this big rose quartz and people are just kind of attracted to this rose quartz because it's a big novel thing and you know it's supposed to have these um great properties to it so you want to be close to it. Um so long story short, me and two other participants are standing out there. we had just met and we all see this like just a light in the sky that sort of looks like a star or something but it's the middle of the day but then it goes away and then it reappears like a little bit further like in a different direction but it's clearly the same thing and this just happened like three or four times and I actually did film it but it just it doesn't look like that much on your phone but but yeah that was strange that's like the one thing I've seen that I truly don't know what it was and I I can't explain what it was but it just was really like a light that was behaving strange and like disappearing appearing and reappearing. Yeah. And and you know what the thing that strikes me about those particular sightings cuz I've had a few of those as well is what makes them so special is the timing. You know, if I'm just out there, you know, seeing something in my car and I that's a weird light or whatever, that's one thing. But when you're actively like like you said, you're near this crystal mon certain energy. Um, you know, after last year, it was like a few weeks after my father passed, and I was with my I was with my brother, my younger brother, and I was going home, and at the time he was living beside me. We pull up in our driveway at the same time. We get out and I said, "Hey, what were you doing?" He goes, "I was just going through dad's stuff, you know. We were like going through his, you know, old stuff." And I was like, "Oh, cool." And as I'm talking to him, I see a flash behind his like his head. And I go, "Dude, I just saw like something in the sky flash." And both of us walk into the middle of the street where we get like a better view of the sky and we're just kind of standing there sort of reminiscing and I literally and like I haven't shared this and I I filmed this video. It's wild. Um to me and I go, you know, hey dad, if you're there, show us something and I'm I'm not kidding. This light just appears on the horizon and it starts getting bigger, but it looks like it's coming towards us and it's like lower than like a satellite or a plane. It's much bigger. And I'm like scared. [laughter] And I turn to my brother. I'm like, "You seen it?" My brother's very skeptical of this stuff. And he's like, "Oh my god. Oh, oh my god. Oh my god." And I'm like, "Yeah." And I I pull my phone out and he's like, "Yeah, good thinking. Good thinking." He didn't even think to get his phone. I'm like, "I'm going to get my phone." And I I start filming this and it's like kind it's it's big. It's a big light. And then all of a sudden it starts going up and then it kind of fizzles out. And we were both there. My brother to this day will be like, "Dude, I don't believe in this stuff." But that that was real. Like that was real. He does. And I don't know what that is. But again, on video, you see a light that gets brighter and it goes up, but it's like okay. Do you know what I mean? It's like unimpressive. But it's the timing of like asking for it. I was in a a very like emotional state. So is he. And like it happened then. So it felt it like amplified it for me. But yeah, it's on video. you're going to be like, "What is that?" You know, that's kind of how it is. Um, I think it's time we bring out our first guest for the night. You guys don't know who. [laughter] Um, our no um our guest here uh tonight is someone who is become a very dear friend of mine. He's an amazing person. Uh he's very knowledgeable. I had him on the podcast recently and um he is uh he's a creative person. He's a director. He's someone who works uh very closely with Bob Lazar. This is uh my good friend, director of S4, the Bob Lazar story, Luigi Vendetti. Guys, give it up. [cheering and applause] >> [applause] [cheering] [music] [applause] >> Have a seat, Luigi. [cheering] >> Very, very happy to have you here, Luigi. Um, thank you for having me. [laughter] >> What's What's so, it's so funny. Um, So funny with Luigi because you know we've been friends for a few years now. We live actually like 40 minutes away and so we're always hanging out and you know talking to each other, calling each other and uh when I asked you to come on the podcast, you've been on before and I've interviewed you before and we talked about you know all sorts of stuff Bob and whatever. But you I knew you had a story. >> Yeah. >> Um that no one else knew about. >> Yeah. And I was like, >> "Unless you were drinking wine with him at Contact of the Dead." >> That's right. You heard the story, too. >> That's right. I remember that. >> The closer. Have you Did you You heard it, too, didn't you? >> No, I heard it on the podcast. >> On the podcast. >> I've heard pieces of it. >> Yeah. >> But not in full until then. >> It's one of those things where like when he started telling me this, we were there for like 5 hours going through this like story and I was like, "This is blowing." It's like the Da Vinci Code. >> Yeah. >> Um >> Yeah. It's It's >> So, you're going to go ahead and tell a story. [laughter] >> Okay. No. No. >> What was that response like? >> I have for you. >> Yeah. That's what we talked about. I I didn't know we were going to talk about that when I when you invited me on the show. So, I went on the podcast. We were supposed to have a conversation. The film was just out. Yeah. the Bob Lazar film was just out. So I'm like, "Okay, we're gonna talk about that and you cut it off pretty fast." You said, "All right, enough about Bob. I want to talk about what you been in." So I was like, "All right, you know, done a lot of stuff." And then you mentioned, you know, would you be willing to talk about the story with Sarah and Lily and all that? And I thought, okay. And never did I expect the response in my entire I think it's like 38 years involved in this and you know finally talking about this in cool environments for like maybe what like four years or whatever the amount of messages and and people reaching out was the biggest I've it far surpass past the Bob Lazar, you know, film people reaching out to me. This was like on another level. So, so I I called Chris and I was like, "Dude, this is this is this is just insane." So, that story hit a nerve. It definitely did. How many of you watched the podcast with Luigi? Round of applause. [cheering] It's [applause] It's really hard to abbreviate the story. And I know there are a lot of plus ones that are like, "What is this story?" Um Jeez, I don't even >> abbreviate that. >> It's so hard. Um but go ahead. [laughter] >> I wanted >> Yeah. Yeah. So you you guys are here until like midnight, right? So yeah, we could do that. So yeah, it's it's it's the craziest story. >> Yeah. So essentially, I mean, in a in a very very tightened nutshell, Yep. I I don't know for for those of you actually, I do want to say something for those of you who watched it. I made a mistake during that podcast and I I mentioned something about a cat, some cat energy. A lot of people wrote about that, you know, and they were and people were like, "What about the cat energy?" And I I forgot to finish my sentence when we were doing that. And a lot of comments were like, "What about the cat?" So, I just want to talk about the cat for a second. So, that >> sure puts that to rest. >> Yeah. Also, guys, if you haven't noticed, you can participate with emojis. Like, we're encouraging our phones and stuff. So, you you haven't I didn't mention this before and I'm sorry, but like if you feel like you want to like partake, throw up some emojis. There you go. Look, you >> That's cool. >> There's some you don't believe in, throw up a red flag. Show them a red flag. Do whatever you want. >> All right. >> That's cool. Yeah, I could see them there. So, so for all of you know the story, there was a girl named Sarah that was in Montreal and she was in my house and she said, "There's an energy of a cat in the house." And I said, "I don't I don't have a cat. Never had a cat." >> You know, I was allergic to cats and I was like, "No, there's no cat." So, I forgot to finish this, but after Sarah left Montreal and went back to Great Britain, uh, the day after was Halloween. So, I was in Montreal and I was driving back home and I get to my house and there's a cat on at my door. And this never happened before. I've been living there all my life and never happened before. And I was like, that's weird. And this it's a white cat with some black spots and it's clawing at my door. And I thought I wasn't thinking about Sarah. I was just like, who's what's the cat? You know, so I'm like, okay, you know, move the cat, tried to get into my house. The cat would run and try to get into the house. And I'm like, no. So I moved the cat, try to open the door real fast. The cat really would want to like go into the house. I'm like, no. So I grabbed the cat, put it further away. I'm like, stay. I open the door and the cat ran. So, I'm like, "All right." So, I open the door and let the cat in. Now, there's a cat in my house. Now, I'm not thinking about Sarah. And the cat's, you know, going around the house everywhere figuring out what this house is. And And I'm fig I'm like, freaking cat in my house now. What do I do? And I'm allergic to cats. So, I was like, I can't have the cat along. You know, I love cats, by the way. They're my favorite animal, but I I'm allergic to them. So, it had a collar and it had a little, you know, something. And there's something really funny about this because my friend Lisa, who is part of this story as well, nicknamed me something many years back. You I think you remember this. Buu. Yeah. In French Canadian, this is going to sound really crazy, but in French Canadian, it means cabbage patch doll. Okay, now I see it. And and the reason why she nicknamed me Buchu is because she's 6'3 and I'm 3 foot six. So So she calls me Buchu. >> By the way, Lisa, if you if you remember in the story, we put up a picture of her as well, >> and there's a whole background with her. >> There's a whole story she >> 63 insane. >> Yeah. Stunning. looks like exactly like the Nordic, you [snorts] know, type and also has a wild >> very very >> story that maybe we'll get into one day. >> Yeah, that's another story. And >> and so I grabbed the cat and I I wanted to read the collar and it said Buchu >> on the collar. >> Wow. >> And I'm like, what are the chances of that? >> So I call, there's a phone number I call. It's a lady that was living a few blocks from my house. And I call her and she says, "Oh my god, my cat never ran away. This is the first time. I can't believe you found it. Please, can you bring it back?" She's an older woman. I said, "Absolutely." I found I can't remember what I found, but I put the cat and I brought her brought the cat back. And I got back home and I thought that was weird. And it hit me when I went back home. I'm like, "Wait a minute. That's what Sarah said. there was a cat in my house. There was a cat energy. And I found that just weird cuz it's like why would she have said there's an energy of a cat in this house when there was never a that was the first cat that ever came into my house? That was just weird. >> Yeah. >> So very another >> another weird part of that story. Now does it does it mean anything? >> We don't know. >> It's probably nothing. >> You know, it's probably nothing. >> I'll see myself out. Sorry. That's a crazy synchronicity. I mean, >> yeah, >> it's it's wild. >> And and the fact that the cat's name was Buchu, it's like that's >> at that time. >> Yeah, it was weird. >> Yeah. So, yeah. >> Yeah. Synchronicities are are for me, I mean, they're a wonderful way of sort of living your life, I found. And, uh, I think that's something that we all have in common, probably a lot of you that are here as well. It's like you you there's the there's a dichotomy of what a coincidence is on the logical side and what a synchronicity is. And the beauty of it is there is a duality um in this comparison because the coincidence like the synchronicity is by definition a coincidence, right? That's what it is. You're like, "Oh, it's a coincidence." That is the definition of a coincidence. >> But you can live your life thinking that everything's a coincidence or you could live your life looking at it as a synchronicity. So, a coincidence but with meaning. And what I found is that if you decide to live this more magical existence, then more magical things seem to happen. >> And and that's just been true for me. Yeah. >> And it's been it's been fun to practice. Uh I want to I want to go over to Nelson actually because Nelson, you have a wild >> uh relationship with synchronicity as well. >> Yeah. Uh it's it's really ramped up in the last few years since kind of connecting with you and this world uh a little more. Um I just find dimes everywhere specifically. I know my brother's in the crowd and he's the most skeptical person of of this kind of thing. So he's like, "Oh, anybody can find a dime." But >> but I I haven't found a dime. >> Okay. I don't know what you're talking about. I You've told me this before and I'm like maybe once in my life. I don't remember finding a dime. Right. You have a jar this high. >> Yeah. >> That's like filled with dimes. >> And And when I started noticing them more, which was after my retreat at Monroe two years ago or so, I was getting a lot of finding a lot of them. And it was the timing that made it even crazier each time I'd find one. It wasn't just like, "Oh, there's one." It was like, "There's one." when I was kind of thinking about one or or asking for one or looking for an answer to a question and there it was in front of me the moment after I mentally said that to myself and I realized also that in my life I've always found them. I just kind of said, "Oh yeah, I'm I find dimes and it's it's a good omen, but I realized like they've always been in my life." Um, I remember my brother's too young for this, but when I lived in France, we grew up in Europe, traveling around, we lived in a house out of Paris, and I remember in the ground, I was just playing in the dirt and I found an old dime from it must have been from like 1910 or something. And I always, oh, that's cool. But like now that I think about it, what the heck is a dime doing in France in my yard, right? >> Um, so it's it's >> Was it Was it by chance one of those old dimes that has like the wing headed? >> No. >> Okay. >> It just says one dime on the front. >> Okay. >> I think it says Yeah. >> Or Yeah, I think it just Oh, it says uh it just I think it just says 10 cents on on the front or it's one of the old old ones. I keep it in in a box in my parents house. >> But yeah, go ahead. I I was going to say this. It's actually synchronous that you bring this up because any any Robert Anton Wilson fans in the crowd um he in one of his books it might be Prometheus Rising I'm not sure but he he's one of these like very you know mercurial esoteric authors who's you know he's having UFO experiences and thinking he might be in contact with uh some intelligence from Sirius but he's also very logical and agnostic about it all and and is willing to go through all the different possibilities, but one of the thought experiments in one of his books is to try to manifest quarters on the ground. And and basically one of the he he encourages you to say try it where you where you're manifesting it or synchronously discovering them and now try it where you're just convinced it's only your own attention. So he's not telling you like which one it is, but he's encouraging you to like play with these different modalities and ways of you know experiencing things and and one of them happens to be that like finding coins in the ground. Yeah. >> Very cool. And Nelson also, you know, he's got a physics background as well and he's a very, you know, I think by the very nature you're are a skeptical person, not a skeptic, but like you look at things and try to rationalize them. But when you find them, what do you do with them? >> Well, I I I log them. I keep track of what day it was, what was happening that day, if I it was heads or tails. I also keep track of how I interact or find other coins, right? Because I'm not just blind to the dimes. Sometimes I find a penny like anyone might, right? >> People find pennies, too. Yeah. Um and I do find pennies. I do find quarters. I I do find nickels, but >> statistically it's always more predominantly dimes. >> Overwhelmingly so. And uh more heads or tails? That's one thing I've been keeping track of more and it's mostly tails. >> By how much? >> Um I'd have to look at the I'm still collecting data, but I'd say probably like 80%. >> Yeah. >> Like what? >> Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. >> Wow. >> So, but but it it drives me wild because then I find one heads and I'm Yeah. heads and I'm like, what do I what does that mean? Like is tails good? >> I'm still I'm trying to figure that out. I'm trying to map it to what outcomes are happening, you know? I think Tales is a good I mean I think they're all kind of basically a wink to me from whatever it is that I'm on the right path. Right. Well, it's like the alchemist. >> Yeah. >> Right. He had these in the in the book by uh Paulo Coella like the uh he had these stones that he would just ask like that one time, >> right? >> This question, right? And it was like yes or no. And that was kind of like heads or tails. What? And what about the years? You log those as well? >> I do log the years. I haven't really noticed a pattern yet, but you know, I've I've had ones that go all the way back to the early 1900s. I have ones that I just got one the other day. It's like the new minted ones from 2026, they look brand new. They're amazing. >> Really excited about that. >> I know. That blows my mind because I don't find dimes. And I have, if you look at our chat history, >> it's like after a while I was like, cool. He sends me I have 30 photos of dimes of just like another one. And it's just him pointing to a dime and he's like, "Oh man, I was just at the racetrack today and I remote viewed um the color pink and so I bet on the pink horse and I usually put five bucks, but I found a dime and so I put 50. I won $1,500." >> Yeah. This was the the Belmont Stakes was being held as one of the big uh race races of the year at I live in Saratoga Springs and we have a little racetrack, but they were holding it there that year. And I found a dime on the way to make a bet. And I I do a weekly remote viewing thing for horse racing specifically, but I don't really bet on it. It's just to gather data and, you know, see how I'm performing. But this I'm at the track. It's a Belmont Stakes. It's big race. I was like, "Okay." And I I go over to the the the cashier, you know, it's old timey. You put the cash over, you say what you want, who's going to win, you do the trifecta, the box, whatever. I don't really understand all that stuff. I just And I don't even understand horse racing. I just see a color and I put my money on it as the winner. And I'm I'm I've got pretty good results. But this one, I knew I knew that black was going to win. And I was thinking to myself like what what I usually put like 10 bucks. You know, I'm not a big gambler. But I was like, I know that this horse is going to win. I should put a lot, but you know, you temper your your your expectations and you're like, "No, I should be responsible. I don't want to put all my money." So, I put 50, right? Was huge. Um, but it's a weird feeling knowing something's going to happen. And that dime was this the thing that kind of like let me know. And of the race was insane. If you want to look back, it was 2024 um the the Belmont Stakes. This this horse, nobody was saying its name for for a winner. And uh it was last place, last place, last place, and just earned its way up, won by the tip of its nose, a door knock. And uh I remember being like, "Yes, pin drop." Nobody ever Oh, look. Everybody was like, "Who the hell is Door Knock?" Except for the owners. They were happy. But yeah, I got a It was like I won like 1,200 bucks. It was >> crazy. It's a weird feeling. >> Imagine if you were a gambler, >> dude. Yeah. >> Think about how much money you lost that day, dude. That's No kidding. [laughter] >> That's a fascinating story. That's incredible. >> I I just if if I can um I have I have something about synchronicities that happened to me. When I was a kid, my grandfather uh used to work in a flower market and he always used to take a red carnation. He would cut it and he would put it over his over his left ear. That was his trademark. I grew up my grandfather always having a red carnation cut short over his left ear. So that was like as a kid I would I knew he would have a flower. When he died I I was named after him. So when he died I started finding cut red carnations in the street. So I I have them in a box. They're all in a box. And at a certain point I moved to China. I don't know if you know I lived in China for a while and I was it was my birthday and I was in southern Canton province and we were in a different city and I was staying in this apartment hotel type of place and I was on the 17th floor. Nobody was staying on the 17th floor. It was just me. It was a really nice place. And so my business partner was there. His he brought his his family and his girlfriend's families cuz it was my birthday. And the door, somebody knocked on the door and I opened the door and it was his girlfriend with a small red carnation in her hand. And I'm looking at her, her name was Tracy. I said, "Tracy, where'd you get that?" She goes, "Right here in front of the door." >> Wow. >> I'm like, "What? There was no flowers in the building." I went I made it a thing to go like, "Where where are the flowers?" Like I I go, "There's no way." And I went down in the lobby. There was no flowers. How did that red carnation get there? >> Wow. >> And to to close off the whole, you know, synchronicity, years later, my father passed away. And it on the day of his funeral, it was a monster snowstorm in Montreal. I mean, mega snowstorm. Okay. And everybody was in the funeral home. At the end, everybody left. And I'm I've got these bags. I had a bunch of stuff. It was the wake. I bought a bunch of stuff and I'm walking away. Everybody went to this exit to the right of the funeral home. I for some reason, I have no clue why I did this. I decided to take the long way out of the funeral home. I don't know why. I don't know why. And I was carrying stuff. So, it was like no logic to what I did. I just did it because I felt like not going where everybody was going. And I went to another door. I was the only guy there. And the one of the guys working there saw me carrying all these bags. So he just opened the door for me. And as I walk out the parking lot cuz all the cars were on the other side. So the parking lot was a perfect white. There was no cars that driven. So it was like perfect white snow. And right far right in the center I see this red little thing. I swear I walked all the way there and it was a little red carnation on the snow. I may God strike me that I saw that I I h I still have it and it's like what does that mean right synchronicity >> thank you crazy >> that is the most [applause] that is the very definition of a synchronicity like that's what I mean >> you can say coincidence but like this clearly has a very deep meaning and Michael's going to explain exactly well [laughter] in a way this is like even though it's an unanswerable question. It's also like the most softball question because this is something I've done like multiple videos on something I like I've deep dove on of like in terms of what it could mean, what the confirmation bias aspects of it are, what the history of the idea is. And of course, I think this is a super old idea that's gone by many names, right? But it's in a modern sense, it's coined by Carl Jung, the famous psychiatrist. Um, and we actually had a weird It It's very strange actually that we're spending so much time in this show like totally unscripted talking about synchronicities because they came up when we were looking at those books today in this like we were walking earlier today going to a camera store and we stumbled across this um this little like not yard sale exactly, but it was in like a driveway somewhere. It was just random stuff for sale and we're looking at random books and we're like, "Oh, it's kind of synchronous synchronous that we found this book and that book." And then right when we left, there was a giant picture of a beetle. >> Like just a giant picture of a beetle. And for anyone that knows Carl Jung, his most famous story is a is a beetle synchronicity story. So it's just super weird to be talking about synchronicities earlier today, seeing the beetle. Now we're talking in an extended unscripted fashion about synchronicities. It's just weird. And and ultimately, you know, he was kind of ambivalent about what it meant, but he he war he was smart enough to warn against, you know, like this is ripe for like confirmation bias and flights of fancy and like thinking that you're controlling reality. And he was saying the ego shouldn't think that it's driving synchronicity. But what he believed is that it's like we're stumbling across what the ancients would have called sympathy. So in these ancient esoteric systems, most of them believed in sympathies. It's like there were these this was like invisible language of nature and to be like a magician was to understand those symbols and understand how to manipulate those symbols. So I think what it is is it's that f that nebulous psychical faculty that we have that's always like rubbing up against the transcendent and we don't really know how or why things happen but they do happen and we see the meaning and it's often times like they're just beyond explanation far beyond chance. So I think it's like we're rubbing up against that dimension of meaning you know and and when you do certain things it again thins that boundary. That that's what I think at least. I knew you could do it. [laughter] [applause] Uh before we move on, we do have a special uh message. Now, as many of you know, uh Luigi did do a documentary. It's a bit of a big deal. It's called S4: The Bob Lazar Story. Uh it was number one on Amazon. It is now free to stream on Prime and it's like trending which is amazing. People are watching it. If you haven't seen it and if you're a plus one, >> maybe don't start there. Maybe start with like something a little like No, seriously, go watch it. It's it's it's an amazing congratulations again. It's just such a fun [applause] >> Yeah. I got to, you know, witness the inception and the creation and every step along the way. And it was just such a delight to to well I mean at times you know it was ups and downs you know making a >> and and I'm going to say this again I want everybody to know that I myself my team everyone thank you Chris Ramsey cuz if it wasn't for this guy we wouldn't have made it all the way to the finish line. So thanks man. [cheering] [applause] >> All right. I appreciate that. Thank you. >> I appreciate it. Um, but your our friend Bob Lazar was kind enough to send us a little video for you guys tonight. Um, so Yony, if you don't mind, we got a little little video. Hey guys, good to see you. Sorry, I just can't make it. I just got too much stuff going on here. We got fires nearby and all that stuff. >> Uh, well, [laughter] the man himself, uh, and himself. [applause] >> Well, give it up for Bazar. Uh, you know, too bad he couldn't make it tonight, but [applause] he wish he could be there. He's dealing with some fires and stuff and he's got like horses and whatnot, but uh, you know, nice of him to >> Wait a second. What's that? >> What's that sound? >> Ladies and gentlemen, Our next guest tonight and resident of Oregon, Mr. Robert Scott Lazar. [cheering] [applause] >> [cheering] [laughter] >> I made it. I made it. >> So, you made it. [cheering] [applause] >> I'm I'm a little curious. Round of applause. Did we fool you with that video? >> No. [laughter] >> Good job. >> Way too smart. Yeah, we gota we got to work on that, Bob. We got to work on our our magic trick a little more. >> Um, thank you for being here. >> Oh, no problem. Good to be here. >> So, um, currently trending once again on Amazon is a story of S4, uh, the Bob Lazar story or S4, the Bob Lazar story. Um, how has the response been for you since this movie came out? How, you know, obviously you've had people reach out and you've seen some response online. How has that been so far for you? >> Oh, it's been a tremendous response. I mean, it's, uh, it's really changed my life really. Um, it's the first time I don't really have to explain what happened to me. I can just point to Luigi or refer to S4 and said, you know, here it is. But it's uh it's amazing how well it was done and it um it's really changed the whole dynamics. Yeah, it's uh it's one of it's one of those movies where you know even someone who's you know I've I've seen all the documentaries on your life up to this point all of the reportings all of the YouTube videos you know and like many others were always just we we want a little more. We're always like, you know, there's got to be there's got to be more to the story. And I'm sure you're like, no, that's it. That here you go. But then Luigi makes this, you know, movie. And you guys all of a sudden gave us more more than we thought could ever, you know, sort of be conjured up from this. You gave us a physical sort of representation. >> Well, a picture's worth a thousand words. I mean, that's what it is. How many times can you tell the same story over and over? But if you're able to show everything exactly the way it was, it takes on a whole new dimension. >> Yeah, absolutely. Um Luigi, quick question for you when doing this and like, okay, you got out there, you made this movie. Um how do you feel with, you know, once this is out there, it's being received. What's your gestalt on this? like how was that received for you being someone who's you know you're going up against the biggest story almost in in UFO history. This is a monumental task to tell a story in this way specifically and very accurately once that was all done. How did that feel for you? Well, that was the the fir well the first thing was I always felt a certain degree of extreme responsibility because I knew how incredibly controversial the story was, how a lot of people pay so much attention to every single thing Bob would say. And I reading all the stuff throughout the years online and you read so much misinformation, not not purposeful, sometimes just people explaining it the wrong way. So it was important to make sure that everything was 100% what Bob said he saw so that at least there was the the starting point was accurate. If you wanted to argue the story, at least you're starting on the right track. And when that when the film came out, obviously I was nervous. Are people going to like it? It's the first time I make a film. So I was really worried that, you know, I liked it, but are people going to like it? And it ended up being a good film. And people >> Great film. >> Thank you. And the people were responding saying, "Finally, we finally understand what he saw and what the story was all about." And that was really rewarding for me, for my team because and I felt happy that I was able to deliver that in a in a digestible format. >> Yeah. Monumental task and and you did you did it you did it justice. I think [applause] um I wanted to follow up with you Bob because the last time you know you appeared on my channel uh you know we had kept this secret for almost a year. I had, you know, um, when I interviewed you, uh, the second time on my channel, most people don't know this, but you were there that day to shoot an episode with Travis Walton. >> Oh, right. Right. >> Yeah. We had done So, if you look at the interview I did with Travis Walton and the interview, the second interview I did with Bob, you'll notice I have a clock in the skiff and it has a date on it and it's the same date. So like those some of you clued in were like wait that's the same because it's very subtle. Uh but that's also why those podcasts were shorter because you know they they were spent they were they just had a you know 19 coffees in the diner [laughter] >> and I remember was like my heart's going to explode like get this get this coffee away from me. Um but yeah, we kind of like kept that for a while. And after the second interview, uh after the first interview, there's an extra like 7 minutes of that interview that kind of like uh wasn't really recorded. Like we stopped sound and then like we just kept talking and you had said to me, you said, "Man, you know, I'd really love to meet Travis Walton." You said, "Really interesting. Luigi talks about him a lot and he's someone that, you know, I I feel is very credible and some I'm I just want another letter on the crossword puzzle. I just want, you know, it' be nice to talk to him. And I said, Bob, I I'd move mountains to make that happen. And with Luigi's help, you know, and I even remember texting you and being like, you know, what if he what if he did this in a diner in like the 50s? And like you were like, hell yeah, that sounds really cool, you know? And I was like, say less. And I and I built it. I remember sending you pictures like >> that was >> and then you know bring you down and I get you to sit down and and for in my opinion one of the most legendary conversations just over coffee and pie. Um what was that experience like for you? How did you feel about it? And how did you feel after getting to speak with Travis Walton? >> Oh well it was great. I for some reason I just always wanted to talk to Travis. I mean, one of the reasons was I saw the movie they made and um Travis hated it. He said it had nothing to do with what happened to me. Um, I heard so many conflicting stories and I just wanted to hear it from the guy and you know just to to meet him to ask him questions and just to see what he really meant, what he really went through was um it was really cool. I mean that was that that was a great experience. >> Did you walk away feeling um like did it raise your conviction level on his story? >> Yeah, it did. Yeah. Yeah. You always get a different feeling when you're hearing it, you know, directly from the horse's mouth as opposed to a repeated story or a movie or something like that. But yeah, there's just something about and, you know, Travis had said the craft he saw looked almost identical to the sport model. So, I wanted to quiz him on things because he got to walk inside. he saw it from different angles and uh it was just really interesting to get feedback from him. So yeah, it meant a lot to me. So thanks again for making that happen. >> My pleasure. Um you know, it was it was interesting too because we were I remember we were sitting together. So like you guys didn't actually meet for the first time on camera. It was like very we spent some time together the night before because you were both just eager to meet each other. I kind of wanted to keep you separate and like have that meeting happen. I was like, "No, this needs to be, you know, these guys need to talk to each other." And uh we we were sat down at the office all together just >> conversing and like all we kept making a joke. I'm like, "We should have filmed this conversation." Um but at uh at one point you start you're like, >> "Travis, what about the arches?" And I'm like, "Hold on, hold on." I'm like, "We we can't cross this line." I'm like, "We got to keep something for tomorrow." I remember feeling really bad about that because I wanted to stop you. Uh, but you did have a burning question about those arches and what was what was Travis's response to that? He doesn't does he remember seeing them? It that was kind of nebulous because he says I do kind of recall something like that, but it's you know Travis had a lot more important things to concentrate on when he was there like trying to get away. Um, but you know, the archways are significant to the operation of the craft because they're wave guides. And I kind of explained that to Travis and it kind of took him back, you know, to where he remembered there was something along those lines. But I mean, he couldn't give me a definite answer if it was exactly the same. But um I really did want to know that if the craft Well, and he was in more than one if they all had that kind of construction on the inside. If you could cuz you, by the way, you did a great job interviewing Travis, which is what it ended up being cuz I didn't know how it was going to go. I was like, "Hey, you're just going to I'm going to leave you guys to it. We're going to set up the cameras." We actually left the room and kind of just like sent the waitress in and like we didn't want to I didn't want to like push it in any way. I had that little briefcase with your files in it, which was a fun little touch. >> Um, but if you had to because I think you had pretty good interview skills. >> I think you're a pretty good interviewer. Um, >> I don't think so. >> I No, I actually I I to be completely candid, I think you're way more comfortable interviewing people. Like, I've seen you on multiple interviews. I've interviewed you like even now. But I think you as an interviewer, like you were really good at letting people talk, not like I'm >> probably more comfortable interviewing someone than being interviewed. Yeah, totally agree with that. Yeah. >> Um, who would you interview if you had a chance? Now, I'll let you go maybe uh dead or alive, anybody. If you could sit down with somebody for two hours at the Flying Saucer, >> I mean, we're just talking about UFO related. >> You know what? one UFO related and one not UFO related. >> Oh man, >> how much time do I have? Um, >> I don't know. I can't spontaneously come up with an answer. All right, we'll come back to it. >> I I will produce an answer in the next five minutes. [laughter] >> Amazing. Uh, in the in the meantime, Michael, uh, Nelson, do you guys have any questions? >> Yeah, I do for sure. Um [laughter] um I've heard a bunch of your interviews and I love that you stick to what you know and what you saw directly, but I'm really interested in the relationship between the phenomenon and consciousness. And you often hear from experiencers that there's like this uncanny aspect to a lot of these sightings. Like the guy, I don't know if you heard the experience who was up here earlier, but he had been literally doing like a full moon ritual before having like a classical UFO, like discshaped UFO appear in front of him. And there's just so many, you know, stories to this effect, whether it's like uh instant communication between these beings and the experiencer or whatever. So, I'm just curious when when you were in especially in contact with the craft, but even secondarily, were you exposed at all to anything having to do with this weird relationship between consciousness and the craft or consciousness and the beings? And >> I was not, but I I do have a friend um that is so convinced that there is consciousness attached to the craft in some some way. I mean, he goes into the construction of the brain, microtubules, and and I I mean, how they are, and these topics are only just being touched on now in depth. I'm sure you've you're familiar with that. And um and he swears that he's got this figured out and consciousness consciousness is a substantial part of how everything works in unison. And um I mean to to the point where he'll just call me like at 6:00 in the morning cuz he's been thinking about this all night. And I stop taking his calls once in a while, you know? I just I can't wake up and start thinking about that. It takes me a while. But um he's he's a great guy, a brilliant guy, and um you know, but I didn't have any any direct connection to that. I didn't see any evidence of that, but he is slowly convincing me that that's the case. >> Interesting. Interesting. Did you get any sense that there could be a special relationship between the brain and the craft itself in terms of how it's piloted or interacted with? >> It has to be something along those lines because there's no physical controls. So, I mean, look, it's not that, you know, if we talked about that in 50s and 60s about some kind of mental control, it would it sounds like something from Star Trek, but now it's no big deal. You really can, you know, control uh relatively complicated systems in that way. But um there there has to be how else is the craft controlled unless it has something to do with the top the top level which I have never had access to or had information on. >> So interesting. >> Yeah. Oh, please. >> Are you familiar with the uh professor from I think it's MIT uh Rudy Child. One more sign. Rudy Child. I don't think so. Yeah. He he uh is a professor from MIT as astrophysicist if I'm not wrong and was interviewed by George Knap at one time and he says he spoke to somebody who had been on the program and he was in favor of Bob Lazar and was explaining that he is convinced that there was some type of mental connection between the occupant and the craft and there was some type of communication He had heard between some academics or some scientists that had been involved in the program that that was how this thing functioned that there was a connection to the machine with our brain. This is a this is a guy who's >> got a lot of credentials at MIT who came out publicly talking about this. Obviously, not a lot of people like to to bring it out in the public. He's an older guy, but I spoke to him. I'm I'm in communication with him. Very very smart guy. So, you should look into that. It's really interesting. Definitely will. Yeah. >> Yeah. >> Yeah. Um, I've always wanted to ask you about this just because obviously I have a fascination with memory and you know you're in this position where you've been telling this story that happened to you so long ago and you've had to say it over and over again and you know people have gone on and told your story for you or or done documentaries about it and then you know this gentleman comes along and is sitting with you painstakingly going through all these memories to rebuild them. I would imagine that it I'm already amazed at how you were able to go into those depths and find the detail to construct something that was so detailed. But it must >> it was because of bringing out those details that brought back the memories if that's what you're going to ask. >> That's what I'm getting to. So like as you're coming up with probably something that's hard to describe and and probably fading a little bit, you build it a little bit. I'm sure that kind of revitalizes or helps kind of job. >> It absolutely did. I wish I had an example that I can remember, but that occurred. And in fact, >> I think it was setting up the lab or something in there. And yeah, you know, we'd uh >> put it on the computer essentially walk in there and, you know, turn around and I, you know, wait, there's there's a door missing. And, you know, there's absolutely a door there. And you know by walking through it um I think that even happened in the big hanger too. >> That's right. >> Um it was just once you see yourself there >> um you can kind of see what's missing. >> Yeah. >> Memory dropped out. >> Yeah. But it also says that the memory is still in there. It just needed >> the connecting fabric to get there which was you know seeing the basic structure but missing the door and then suddenly now you have the door. And I'm sure that just seeing that door probably unlocked some other details, right? >> Yeah, I I think it happened all through in different levels of intensity. I mean, some things were big and you know there it was. I remember >> the light in the the tripod light in the craft, you know, had a cable coming out and you're like, "Oh, yeah, it was orange." Extension cord. >> The extension cord cuz you're like, he would always tell us, "Look out for the cables," you know. >> Yeah. Yeah. There was also something else. A big container that The blue liquid container. Wait, what? What is What is this? >> There was a big container. We just called it Windex. It was [laughter] just Yeah, it looks just like a big container of Windex. But >> And what does it do? >> I have no idea. >> It was It was just there. It had nothing to do with what we were doing. And um I had just forgotten about it um until you know we >> started putting the lab together and >> well it was the lab came together. You remember >> you remembered the door right away. It was instant. As he walks into the lab the first thing Bob says is wait there's a door that's missing right to the right. It was instant. And I remember going well wait why why would there be a door there? It goes to the hanger. And and you said yeah that's where we went. And immediately was like, okay, that opened up a whole other thing because then when you're in the hanger, you had the adjacent hanger door and there was little doors in there and you said, >> "Wait, there's a missing door in that big door and you everything started cascading and it was like his memory was just coming right back." And I compared it to when you look at, you know, if ever you bring out an album, old photos, >> and you look at, let's say, a picture of your own house when you were a kid, and you see one thing and you go, "Oh, yeah." And then suddenly everything starts coming back. Same thing. You're in a place where you can't go back. >> Yeah. >> And so, the difference is is that at least the photo is it's a a actual photo you took. The thing you created is not real. Right. You've built it from him and it's kind of like this recursive loop that's just rebuilt his own memory. >> Right. Yeah. It's pretty cool. >> Like a virtual memory palace >> booster. Yeah. Oh, yeah. >> It's like a mind palace. >> Yeah, I've heard of that. Yeah. >> But it um and it is interesting too because spatial memory >> is like our strongest memory. Isn't that >> That's what I was telling you earlier how I remember all these digits of pi. I was placing them in this memory palace and how powerful it is for humans to remember spatial information. So, it's not surprising that the structure you should have recruited Nelson to help. >> That's true. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. >> Yeah. Just like Nelson just holding Bob's head. I mean, like, come on. It's in there. >> Right. [laughter] >> Think harder, Bob. >> I still can't believe you you can remember 10,000 digits of pi. >> It's not that crazy. >> Yes, it is that hard. Yeah, [laughter] >> it's not that hard. It's not that hard. >> I I did have one more question. um about memory again, but is there any memory that you're aware that you've forgotten just because of time that's passed and it's faded that you wish you remembered more? >> Oo, good question. >> I know that's occurred, but I don't remember. You know, I fair answer. Yeah. [applause] What um maybe like the documents is there like because there was a lot of documents they had to read. >> You know, I really I know a lot of people focus on those cuz go boy all the answers are there but >> like that's when I first got into the project and I was just going through these things. They probably just I didn't even know if they were real. So I just flipped through them quick. Oh really? Okay. And you know and then you know that was that was that. So I and I never got to look at them again. So, >> yeah, that would be fun to go back into that mine palace. >> Yeah, I if I could remember what I saw on each page, that would be kind of cool. Yeah. >> Yeah, there's there's there's something in the works. That's all I'll say. All right. All right. Interesting. We won't pry. [laughter] We'll be polite. Um, yeah, go ahead. I was going to say Bob looked surprised when you said that. >> There is news to me. [laughter] >> I am surprised. Yeah. >> You know, one of the things I wanted to say about memory and and and today's technology cuz you said, you know, I built something that wasn't real that is like a loop where it makes him remember something. And one of the things that I hope that comes and I'm I'm obviously myself, my team always at the very forefront of learning about technology and what what we have as tools and AI is obviously the biggest thing that's that's arrived is is revolutionizing the world. Whether we like it or not, it's here and it's not going to go away. What I would love to see and hopefully we are able to make the existing computing equipment that we have able to do it. How cool would it be if we could basically speak to AI like we speak to chat or whatever we speak to, whoever decides to speak to something. We're speaking to a robot these days. And imagine saying to a robot and you're looking at a screen and you want to build your high school from your memory and see how accurate AI can start building it in 3D while you're talking >> and that would start opening up your memory to things. And how accurate could it get where we start building our memories visually in front of us? I would love to see that in the next, you know, 10 years >> season of Black Mirror. >> Yeah. >> Yeah. [laughter] >> Um, yeah. I mean, but you did that in a way terrifying. >> Um, >> have you have you thought about who you'd like to interview yet? >> Yeah. I I'm sorry that it it's gonna sound so typical. Go ahead, but I'm I I'm still gonna have to go back to Einstein just because of where he was on gravity. >> That's >> Well, let's set it up. [laughter] >> All right, >> the next diner episode. >> It's going to be a It's going to be a tough one, but we'll make it happen. I'll >> We need to get Salvator back up here to do a couple rituals [laughter] and we'll get back to you. Just give me a good old shovel, I guess. Um, and a potion. I don't know. Um, is there anyone in the in the UFO field that you feel like hm that you'd like to interview one more time or one or just >> I don't know. I don't really know the UFO field. >> What about John Lear? Would you go back and if you could and sit down with John one more time? >> I've said I've sat down with John [laughter] a lot. All right. >> What's the craziest thing John Leer has ever told you? >> Oh my god. Oh my god. [laughter] >> Really? >> Yeah. Yeah. Let's go. Okay. >> And and we're going to clip it [laughter] right there. No, no, no, no. But what is like the most insane thing that he's told you because he's said some stuff. >> Okay. Um, we can go on for a while. That there's this the sun is not hot. It's just that the atmosphere of the sun's on fire, but the, you know, the globe itself is solid. There's people living on it. And um the same thing uh with Venus, there are there are people there. And I said, >> when does the crazy part start? >> Yeah, we're getting there. We're getting there. [laughter] But I mean, John Leer had so many crazy ideas that the the thing is John was a great guy. I really liked him. But he had no BS filter at all. And you know, like I've said before, he could have a fourstar general come in and say, "Hey, I've got a bunch of information here, you know, for you." and you know he'd file it and then he can have this literally happened a neighbor girl came over and she said I can see radio waves and he said okay great and you know they he puts them both together and they they both have equal weight and you know and I said well [laughter] uh that's crazy John you know and and he said no it's not it's not she said she can see radio. I said, "All right. All right. Well, let's get a walkie-talkie. I will bring one over and she can sit there and I'll key it and you know, she won't be able to see it and she can tell me when she sees radio waves and when she doesn't." Yeah. I said, "That's a fair test." He said, "No, you you can't do a test like that." [laughter] Yeah. And so, but there is so many crazy things. But within all the crazy things like he would still talk to like for example a fourstar general. So it's like >> oh he had great contacts. He really did you know partially because of his father and um you know he wasn't a very accomplished pilot. He had every >> flying certificate and world record you could possibly have. Um but as time went on he just I he just started thinking in a nonlinear fashion you know it's just different. >> Yeah. He's uh I mean clear clearly there's some unhinged you know theories around John Leer but also you know he would he would still talk about things like um like the MJ12 documents or like uh you know the Aztec crash and stuff like that. Yeah, he to him there was there was supposedly hundreds of UFO crashes, which just doesn't make sense. Um, he also said in the Nellis Mountain Range there's over a billion aliens that live inside there and you know where do they ever come out? I mean, how can you not see a billion of anything? [laughter] But, uh, he had he just had so many crazy ideas, but he had a lot of great information, too. who knew a lot of, you know, prominent people. >> Yeah. I have a feeling if anyone could get some novel and, you know, good information out of him, it would be you in an interview. So, I think >> Yeah, definitely. >> But, um, yeah. >> Well, Chris, uh, if I may ask you, if you could have, you've already had Mount Rushmore of guests on the diner. >> Sure. >> Talking to each other, who would you ideally love to have next? Um, I mean there's there's a few there's a few like Alive like >> Yeah. >> Yeah. >> Yeah. Otherwise strange podcasts. [laughter] >> Yeah. Yeah. One of us isn't drinking coffee, you know. >> Um, >> I guess I'll get the bill. Um, [laughter] >> uh, I would say there's a few like on the on the celebrity side, I'd love to interview Dan Akroyd. Oh, >> I think he's totally underrated. He's did Joe Rogan once, you know, he's into crystal skulls. Yeah, obviously his crystal skull vodka, but he's his his whole family has a history of like paranormal things. He's got a book coming out soon, which I can't wait to read. And and he's a very fascinating person, a Canadian as well. So, definitely Dan Akroyd, but also on the more sort of UFO side of things, I think. Um, man. Huh. Jacqu Valet. O. Yeah, that's a deep cut. I think definitely Jacqu Valet. I'm hoping to make that happen actually um eventually. Yeah. You know, I know he's he's you know, he's getting up there and he's not really traveling that. I think he's done doing like public appearances and stuff and so yeah, I would love to even even honestly he's one of those people who even off the record, off camera, I would just love to like he's like the closest thing to like a shaman we have in like this euphology business. Like he's been to more encounter sites than I think anyone else. He's intertwined with some of the most interesting people and events in the last like you know whatever decades. It's really really um you know this guy helped invent like the internet like you know what I mean like he's he's just a really really special guy I think him and then Dan Burrish I think could be the other one. So um but yeah also I believe in Canada uh Dan Burrish. So you know love to make that Dan if you're watching if you're at home you know or Marcia. >> Yeah he has to come out. He's gota I mean, but you know, that's one of those ones as well where it's like I'm just gonna let you talk >> and you guys decide [laughter] like not going to weigh in on this one. Um and I think here's another one. Here's a controversial one and uh this interview is coming out next week for you guys. So um I interviewed for 4 hours. I sat down with Richard Dodie >> [laughter] >> I already hear the comments on this video. [laughter] >> Hey, how about it? Um, got to say very aphable guy. It's in his interest to be affable. I understand. But, um, the the conversation was fascinating. We got through a lot of stuff. It's one of those like suspend your disbelief like, you know, giant rocks grain assault. Um, but very interesting nonetheless. That those are Yeah, that's a little sneak peek. How about you? >> If you had to talk to somebody in this field. >> Oh, I probably Tom Dong just because I'm a huge Blink fan, but I just love to hear him spew all his stuff. Yeah. >> Nice. >> Michael, >> I mean, if we could if we could find him, uh, General McCassllin's mass and and Lenda together would be >> insane. Yeah. Like I just someone someone who really knows what's going on behind the scenes at a very high level who like you know oversees like the wooaps like the waved unagnowledged special access programs doesn't have any compartmentalization talking to someone who has like the crazy philosophical chops you know and like seeing how all of that would come together that would be >> that is kind of the missing link is like we hear about the nuts and bolts we hear about like the soft sciences and there is like what joins those two things together is like this weird Greek mythology or something. >> Exactly. >> Or even someone like Grush, you know, he'll specifically talk about these programs, craft bodies, but then he'll say, >> you know, spacecraft, but that's not the correct parlance. And he'll and he'll talk about interdimensional stuff in interviews as well. And it's like, how does all this fit together? like how do the the bodies and the craft and the what you know it's just it's all these this constellation of super fascinating things that you could guess how they might connect but you're just not sure. Yeah. And also um they're doing that probably to not say the thing cuz then we all think it's the thing, right? So they're trying to be purposely nebulous like like you know they'll say things like oh it's nonhuman biologics and like or like okay so like plant spit like what are we talking about like like no no it's non-human intelligence like dolphins and cats or like like there's no term that like correctly vaguely describes everything and it's it's funny hearing like grush specifically like go like they're bipedal plasmoids and you're like so we got to call Ghostbusters, I guess, now, you know, these these things all sound very strange, you know, but uh yeah, there we can't put a we can't put a thing on it until we know what it is cuz then or else everybody thinks it's, you know, Martians or Venians or whatever it is or people in the sun. Um, which I suspect. >> All right. Here, Bob, do you mind if I join you? >> Oh, go right ahead. >> All right. [snorts] Um, okay. The number one question, do you think everything is related? I.e. UFOs, paranormal, ancient civilization. This is by Agent Angel. Bob, I'll start with you. Do you think it's all related? [laughter] >> Very generalized question. >> Yeah. Uh, very possibly. Very possibly. >> Yep. I think we're all in agreement. We're all in agreement. Very possibly. Very possibly. Okay. Um, >> okay. >> I feel like I felt like Michael had something more. >> Well, I got a I got a better one for Michael here. Anyway, these are all Michael questions, by the way. Agent Mr. Ken asks, "Is physical reality a manifestation of consciousness?" >> I mean, do you want the short answer or the long answer? I mean, I >> I'm a big fan of idealist philosophy, which posits that consciousness is like the ground level of being. Of course, for anybody who's ever heard me talk for more than 2 minutes, there's a good chance that's what I was talking about. Um, so I'm I mean, I'm a fan of that theory. Yes. >> Yeah. Okay. [laughter] Um, okay. I I I like this question. Do the visitors listen to human music? Whoa. And why wouldn't they, Luigi? >> They have to. We've created it. If they're here, they pretty much >> they're bopping, >> you know? They know the music. >> Maybe that's why they're here. Who knows? >> Maybe that's why they're here. >> Maybe maybe they're making the music. >> Actually, you know, artists, the muse, the don, the demiurge, right? >> Kanye's pretty weird. I mean, he could be an alien. >> That's true. >> Yeah. >> They're at least familiar with it. Yeah. >> Yeah. >> Yeah. They would have to be. I wonder what they think. They're like, "Ah, that's so Maybe they're like, "Ew." I don't know. >> Um, >> we can talk about the that next questions. >> Yeah, go ahead. >> Is the Sasquatch real slash coming to get me up there? >> Yeah, the Sasquatch is interesting cuz we are in Sasquatch country. >> Yeah. >> And uh, are you guys all fans of the Squatch? [cheering] Um, I I have no idea. Uh, I'm going to leave it up. I think you've got some good takes on on this stuff, honestly. >> Well, I first of all, I live near Whiteall, New York, which is we got the Bigfoot over where we are. Uh, you guys call them SC Sasquatch. Um, but I've traveled a lot to Nepal and done some mountain climbs, and they have, of course, the Yeti. Um, one of our investigative reports at the beginning, uh, was since I traveled there, I was gonna, and I did, we just haven't kind of put it together, but I filmed kind of a, as much as I could, a deep dive into Yeti lore uh, over there um, in Nepal, which was really interesting, especially in the Sherpa community, the the locals who live near Mount Everest, they it's funny, I would bring it up. I was asking everybody, "Have you ever seen a yeti? Have you ever seen footprints?" blah blah blah. And they would say, they'd laugh, "Don't be silly." But then they'd stop laughing and be like, they'd tell me a story where they knew somebody who had seen footprints or had an experience or their father had told them stories. And so there was this kind of um pervasive lore that existed within the community that had been around for centuries and they I think deep down truly believed that this being existed. Was there real proof? I never really got to the bottom of it, but it seemed like they all had this story of something out in the wild that they had encountered and they didn't know what it was. And I feel like that's also kind of similar what I got out of people in the area where I live when I ask about people who are kind of wellversed in the Bigfoot lore. I don't know what it's like out here with Sasquatch, but I think there's kind of like this unknown that people like to have to des to kind of cap encapsulate the things that they can't fully describe. And I think Bigfoot is one of those things. Yeti, Sasquatch, whatever you call it. So, do I think it's real? I think yes. in some sense. I don't know if the the actual being that we the the crypted that we're talking about is is actually out there. I could be wrong. I don't know. But this is just my feeling that it's more of a concept that we >> like an archetype like yeah like a subconscious archetype of something, some type of projection that we're putting onto the unknown. Um round of applause. Who here believes that they have seen the Sasquatch? Yeah. >> All right. That's not applause. One more time. Round of applause. Uh, who's seen a Sasquatch? >> That's not nobody. That's kind of very interesting. >> Has anybody seen There's a guy on Instagram who claims that he has like a Sasquatch corpse. >> Oh god. Yeah. >> And obviously everybody was like calling on it and he's like, "I will saw through it, >> show you the crosssection." And then he did. And he's like got a picture of himself with this crosssection of a giant Sasquatch head. >> Aren't they getting Aren't the pieces getting bigger? >> Weird. Or is it just me? Like they're huge. >> Oh yeah. The head he has is gigantic. Yeah. It's like got to be It's like at least the size of his torso or like from here to it's Yeah, it's big. >> I appreciate the hustle, you know? >> Yeah. >> It's tough to make a living on social media, dude. You got to like get out there and decapitate a Sasquatch. It's a lot of work. I I think for a lot of people like this the crypted conversation is a very slippery one and it's like an area they don't want to go and for I'm kind of one of those people that's much more skeptical of that but you hear stories about like >> skinwalker when it's like you know John Ke like was also very reluctant to believe it as well but he would always talk about these things happening in concert with one another like again these window areas these times where it would just be a huge uptick and all kinds of weird sightings of like of creatures of of >> crap. Wolf men or like Yeah. >> Yeah. I mean, all the skinwalker ranch stuff. It's Yeah, there's a lot. >> Sorry. Go ahead. >> I was just going to throw it over to Bob. I'm curious to know what you think about cryptids. Like what's is that ever crossed your mind or are you like I'll believe it when I see it? Like what's your what's your take? >> Kind of on I'll believe it when I see it type thing. Yeah. >> Yeah. And you don't believe any those old the old video, you know, where he's like everybody knows I'm doing this, you know, like you know this video. >> I mean, I just haven't seen enough evidence. I mean, but you know, if you're talking more along the lines of skinwalker, um, >> do you know that I'm a little more I I lean a little more that way really? >> That's Yeah, that Yeah, I've known that. Not my my personal experience, but I I have a lot of faith in George Knap, who's researched that for a long time. And uh you I knew Bob Bigalow who owned the Skinwalker Ranch. And look, the reason he sold it was because he's, you know, petrified of what's there. And you know, they've had other physicists and, you know, that research the place and have entities have followed him back home. And um you know even even George was concerned about the thing but uh it's just because I you know trust the opinions of these people and um I don't think I'll be going there. >> That was my next question. >> You wouldn't stay overnight? >> No, no, no. There's no reason to do that. [laughter] >> You've heard about the hitchhiker effect and like all that stuff. >> Not liking that at all. >> I don't know. I'd go I'd go. >> That'd be a good That'd be a good audience question. like what is it worth the the risk to to potentially see something? >> Oh yeah. I mean I'll I I I've talked to Brandon Fugal like I've texted him. Um and like I'm ready. I'd go. I I mean why not? Um [applause] nice knowing you though. But uh bring some bring some stuff home. Um yeah, who knows? Who knows what that stuff is if it's real. I also had Ben Woodruff. He was a biologist on Skinwalker Ranch who they had hired. He has a great interview and Ben's a lovely person and he's also like a falccer and he's like uh he just he loves studying sort of uh paleontology and you know all this all this stuff. But uh he's found tons of anomalous things regarding uh the biological side of things like the plants that are affected, the animals that are affected. Like for instance, the mammals that are like bigger than a mouse when they find them or any animal for that matter, they don't decay at all. They stay limp. They don't even go hard. There's no rigamortis. Um, they had a they had a rabbit, I believe, that was there for three months or a skunk. Three months, no decay. It literally did not decay. And they were studying it. There was still fresh blood in it. After 3 months, this is unheard of. Completely impossible. And the second they took it off the ranch, it started decomposing. And so then they're like, is there something there? What if we bring in a dead animal? Will it like and how does it affect human life? Like there's all these questions cuz the cows as well, they die and nothing eats them. Like nothing, no ant, nothing goes near them. They're like we're not, you know, like a lot of mutilation stuff. So yeah, very strange stuff. Maybe I maybe I won't go. I don't know. Um uh but that's really all we have time for unfortunately tonight folks. We've gone over our time. Um, [cheering and applause] thank you. [applause] Um, I want to I want to start by uh thanking my co-hosts. Um, thank you so much, Nelson. Pleasure being here. Thank you all. [applause] >> Go check out Nelson's work. He has a YouTube channel as well where he teaches memory techniques. He also has a book called Remember It, which uh literally will help you remember things. And then he's got another one called Everyday Genius that just came out. It's a great book as well. So, thank you, Nelson. Uh my friend over here, my good compatriate and fellow cohort in the, you know, phenomenon realm, Michael Phillip from Third Eye Drops. Thank you so much. [applause] So nice to have you explaining all the things that I don't understand. It's really and Nelson just remembering it. It's awesome. Um uh thank you Luigi Vendatelli for everything you've done. Yeah. Thank you. [applause] Thank everybody. And uh thank you to the man of the hour, Mr. Bob Lazar. [cheering] [applause] You know, I I do want to say, Bob, um, you know, I've thanked you before for everything you've done, but this what we've created here is very special. This is very cool. And I I I, you know, I do not say this lightly. I don't think I would be here if it wasn't for you. Like on this stage, I wouldn't be here. And I don't think we would have this if it wasn't for you. Like we're looking at the sports model back here. Like >> you are a massive massive part of [applause] this. And so if nothing else, if we don't get answers, if we don't get government disclosure, if we don't get any of that, we got each other. We got this community. And that for me is more than enough. So thank you so much for allowing us to uh to be here today. Oh, you're welcome. [applause and cheering] Thank you. And thank you to you guys in Portland. You guys have been absolutely amazing. Best [applause] crowd. so far. We love you so much. Have an awesome and amazing night and a safe trip home. Good night, [applause and cheering] guys. [music] [music]
