lINK: "US whistleblower says US recovered "Non-human" biologics at Roswell site"'LINK:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lcrCMLVk614

In July of 1947 somethings very strange crashed to Earth on the high desert plains of New Mexico. Hundreds of witnesses testified to seeing portions of wrecked flying discs as well as small alien bodies with the wreckage at two crash sites. The Air Force immediately cordoned off the areas and issued warnings to all witnesses not to discuss any details of what they had seen- which, they said, was the simple wreckage of a crashed weather balloon. They continued to debunk and marginalize all attempts to bring what many considered to be the truth to light for decades- until finally some high ranking men who were personally involved began to talk. Skeptics believe it was all hype to sell books. Believers ask "how many extraterrestrial UFO's have to be witnessed before the government comes clean? ".

Portions of our earlier interview with the late nuclear physicist Dr. Stanton Friedman are included at the end.

FALL FAMILY SPECIAL

In this episode we say goodbye to TV's highly successful Bluebloods police drama as it takes its leave after 14 years on CBS, and we honor the sacrifices of law enforcement families who make our country and our neighborhoods safe by putting their lives on the line every day.

We offer the valid reasons for the show's great success.one of those reasons being the Reagan family dinner which closed nearly every episode with an open discussion among the family which covering the moral and procedural challenges that their city and police force faced.

We also cover the police support organization known as C.O.P.S. which supports families of fallen police officers and promotes the blue.

As of late November 2025, at least 86 law enforcement officers have died in the line of duty, while 285 have been shot (which includes both fatal and non-fatal shootings) in the U.S. this year. These figures come from organizations such as the National Fraternal Order of Police (FOP) and the National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial Fund (NLEOMF).

The Harry Potter books by JK Rowlins have sold millions of copies worldwide, spawning successful,movies and theme parks. Still, many young families are cautious that the stories have the potential to lead young readers into witchcraft or the dark arts, so controversy has arisen around getting children started with Harry Potter, and deciding what age is right to jump in. The answer clearly lies in parental involvement- and within that framework it looks like kids are benefitting in lots of ways. This is your family starter guide to years of enjoyment and hopefully your family reading of one of the greatest childrens/teen sci-fi adventures ever written.

This episode dedicated to my two little Griffyndors Ashton and Hunter......

In November of 1620 the Pilgrims arrived by ship to a new land filled with danger and uncertainty, a world in which nearly half of them would soon die of starvation and sickness, their final resting place being unmarked graves so as not to let the surrounding Indians know how many of their group had been lost. Yet with unshakable faith and strength of spirit, the survivors of that first winter set to work to fell trees and build a village, they found the strength to clear fields and plant crops when the springtime came, and they forged an alliance with the Wampanoag Indians for their mutual benefits. Then, despite that first year of incredible hardship and loss, they set aside a few days in the fall of 1621 to give thanks to their God for all the blessings they had received. This was the first Thanksgiving at Plymouth in what we now call Massachusetts. This is their story.. Join us as we take a look back at the first Thanksgiving in Plymouth back in 1621. If you have a minute, visit our Facebook page at www.facebook.com/1001Heroes and answer our question "Despite this hard year-what are you most thankful for this Thanksgiving?

FALL FAMILY SERIES: HONORING THOSE WHO SACRIFICE FOR US

GIOVANNI'S RING: MY LIFE INSIDE THE REAL SOPRANOS- 1001 Heroes Podcast Host Jon Hagadorn interviews retired undercover police/FBI agent Giovanni Rocco regarding his best-selling new book detailing his work to break up the most dangerous crime family in America- the sacrices he and his family made in the process, the stories-the incredible commitment he and others made and still make every day to fight crime- a GREAT story!

Catch up with Giovanni at InsidetheLife.org today and follow his podcast!

Giovanni's Ring is the story of "Giovanni Rocco," a New Jersey police officer, known undercover as "Giovanni Gatto," who spent over twenty years in various undercover roles, penetrating biker gangs, drug cartels, white supremacist groups, and domestic and international terror groups. Most significantly, he was the mysterious agent at the epicenter of Operation Charlie Horse, a federal undercover operation that ultimately brought down ten members and associates of New Jersey's DeCavalcante Mafia family—the criminal organization otherwise known to law enforcement as "the real Sopranos."

Giovanni spent nearly three years working his way into the DeCavalcante hierarchy. He was so convincing in his role that capo Charlie "the Hat" Stango (also known as Charlie "Beeps") began to treat him as his "right hand." Over time, the personal relationship between the two men grew to a point where Charlie treated Giovanni more as a favored son than just an associate. Giovanni became so fully trusted that Stango went "on the record" for him with the family's administration and put him in charge of his own crew. Giovanni was permitted to attend meetings with other high-ranking members of the DeCavalcante crime family, as well as with senior members of New York's notorious Gambino, Genovese, and Lucchese Mafia families, and was authorized to speak on his capo's behalf. Each passing day became a roll of the dice for Giovanni, plaguing him with doubts: Is today the day my cover is blown? Is this the last day I see my wife and children? Will one of my deals between families or crews go bad and I'll get clipped? Is this all worth it?

Stango eventually assigned Giovanni the task of killing Luigi "the Dog" Oliveri, a troublesome made member of the crime family. That lethal assignment brought the undercover operation to an end in March 2015, and the resulting string of high-profile arrests eviscerated the criminal organization. In the course of the operation, Giovanni secretly recorded hundreds of conversations relating to a wide range of crimes including counterfeit and contraband goods trafficking, warehouse robberies, truck hijackings, and drug trafficking. Also, and importantly for his own safety, he learned that the DeCavalcante family had secured access to sensitive law enforcement information, including information about specific investigations into DeCavalcante members and associates.

Giovanni's Ring is not simply a chronicle of Giovanni Rocco's adventures in the murky and dangerous Mafia world he inhabited, but also a fascinating window into the psychological struggles that such a life inevitably entails. Whenever Giovanni returned to his real home and his real family, he needed to perform an invariable ritual: he parked in his driveway, removed his jeweled pinky ring, and dropped it in a cup holder, trying to drop the Gatto identity as well. Giovanni's Ring is a story that is by turns astonishing, electrifying, gut-wrenching, and always deeply human.

Sgt. (Ret.) Norberto "Bert" Gonzalez takes you into the circus tent of police work and shows you how the men and women of law enforcement do their job to the best of their abilities.

Bert shows you the human side of those behind the badge. The good, the bad, and the ugly. He pulls no punches but lays out the reality of life on the street.

Ride along for an unprecedented view under the circus tent. This IS the Real Greatest Show on Earth!

"The murder of Joseph Gatto captivated Los Angeles. Many veteran journalists still wonder how and why it happened. The details of this horrible crime and those affected by it continue to fascinate." –Robert Kovacik, Anchor and Reporter, NBC Los Angeles

Mike Gatto was an up-and-coming young lawmaker when his father was brutally murdered.

The act sucked him into the world of noir: wild theories, intransigent detectives, and unimaginable violence.

This true crime story reads like a thriller, offering insight into the world of politics and the seedy underbelly of crime investigation in modern Los Angeles.

Gatto shares his experiences with incredible candor and raw emotion, detailing every clue, and how he came to learn every tragic detail of his father's murder. With the case still unsolved, see if you can piece together the clues to solve the mystery.

You can contact Mike at [email protected] with any serious theories. Mention 1001 Heroes Podcast in emails so he knows it is referred.
