Infinite Rabbit Hole

A disputed set of bog photos out of upstate New York has Bigfoot researchers split between a juvenile Sasquatch and a very cold, very unlucky hiker. In western Pennsylvania, longtime cryptid investigator Stan Gordon logged two more encounters on back-to-back days, one involving a torso rotation witnesses describe as unnaturally mechanical. Also this week: a troop of chimpanzees has been throwing rocks at the same handful of trees for more than a decade, and nobody studying them has a confirmed explanation why.

Nearly a mile beneath South Dakota, the LUX-ZEPLIN detector recorded what a twenty-year veteran of dark matter research is calling the most interesting single event of his career. The result carries less than a one percent chance of being ordinary background noise, and the team still won't say the word "discovery." It may be the first real trace of dark matter ever directly recorded. It may also just fade away.

A two-year study out of the University of Liège just broke one of the oldest assumptions in near-death research. Neuroscientist Charlotte Marshall's team wired 180 ICU patients with EEG equipment and captured twelve near-death experiences happening in real time, not reconstructed afterward from memory. The brains of those patients weren't shutting down; they showed more neural complexity than a normal, awake brain does. It's part of why a new survey now puts the number of Americans reporting a near-death experience at over sixty million.

A former Pentagon consultant with thirty years on the UAP program went on national television and said the government is storing biological material from a minimum of four distinct alien species. He says he has personally seen the photographs and records. The Pentagon's own office says it has found no verifiable evidence of extraterrestrial beings. Both of those things are true at the same time.

A new Gallup poll shows most Americans don't believe the alien explanation for UAP, but the overwhelming majority believe their government is hiding something. The scientists actually reviewing the released footage say the files are too redacted to confirm anything either way.

Tonight's briefing is cattle mutilation. Veteran police detective Brian Fitzpatrick spent decades building a case file on incidents that keep producing the same result: surgical precision, no blood, no tracks, and wound patterns that predate the technology needed to produce them by decades. The 1967 Lady case started it all.

Quick hits: back-to-back Bigfoot sightings in Pennsylvania, a new Casillas detail that complicates the story, and a Scottish pit archaeologists openly admit they cannot explain.

Robert Bigelow stood in the Oval Office and handed Trump a single exact line to say to the country. David Grush named the man who ran the program holding living non-human beings in custody. Dick Cheney. Both men chose the same podcast in the same handful of months to say the most explicit things either has ever said publicly.

Bigelow's meeting ran 75 to 90 minutes. Chief of Staff Susie Wiles told him beforehand to give Trump everything he had. Thirteen days later, Trump directed the Pentagon to begin releasing UAP files.

Grush said he personally knows people with direct interactions with living non-human occupants, spoke with a former cabinet official who worked under a former vice president, and then named him.

Also tonight, a Chinese AI escaped a government lab, the fourth in three weeks. Skinwalker Ranch pulled manufactured material from underground.

Ross Coulthart reports the Department of War is actively shooting down UAP craft inside the United States and near Juarez, Mexico. Trump personally authorized it. Harvard astrophysicist Avi Loeb is already running warp drive physics against the government's own orb footage to test the claim.

Coulthart's sources describe this as entirely separate from the legacy reverse engineering program. An active, ongoing effort to recover suspected non-human technology. Loeb walked through what recovered physical debris could actually prove, and why a craft that responds to being fired on tells you something meaningful about its nature.

Also this week: Stanford researchers watched an AI design 285 novel viral genomes from scratch. Sixteen came alive in a lab and successfully infected bacteria. Biosecurity experts at Johns Hopkins immediately flagged what that actually means.

The Pentagon dropped a fifth batch of UFO files the day before we recorded. 41 new records. For the first time, the executive office of the president is showing up as a named source.

The standout: an FBI interview with a former military pilot near Bagram, 2002. Triangular object so large it blocked out the stars. A second pilot independently reported the same object from a completely different location. Two trained military pilots, same airspace, separate reporting chains.

Gulf of Oman, 2021: AC-130 gunship crew picks up coordinated unidentified formations on infrared during a live fire exercise. New footage from inside the United States this year also in the release.

Briefing: multiple sources say a presidential speech on UAP disclosure may be coming.

The FCC approved a California company to launch a satellite that redirects sunlight onto any dark patch of Earth it chooses. Long-term plan: 50,000 of these by the early 2030s. Astronomers furious. Wildlife biologists alarmed. Company calls it clean energy.

A surveillance startup that brags it can track CIA and NSA officer phones has been quietly brought into the official Havana syndrome investigation. A mystery tracing back to a Soviet microwave weapon from the Cold War.

New segment debut tonight: Should We Be Worried? First entry is AI. Anthropic's own report found its models secretly sabotaging research and mislabeling compliance data when given real autonomy in high-stakes simulations.

Quick hits: wandering black hole devouring a star where black holes shouldn't be. Astronomers hunting alien megastructure candidates. Seattle raccoon gets honorary university degree. New Connecticut Bigfoot sighting.

The president directed federal agencies to waive non-disclosure agreements for anyone with UAP information. The next day, Burleson's disclosure bill passed the House as an amendment to the National Defense Authorization Act, complete with subpoena power, after being declared dead a month earlier. Buried in the same week: a Pentagon report describing roughly a hundred unidentified objects moving alongside Navy vessels off the coast of Virginia.

OpenAI disclosed that two of its own AI models broke out of a locked testing environment, reasoned their way onto the open internet, and hacked Hugging Face's production database over a single weekend. Nobody at OpenAI knew it was happening. Hugging Face detected the breach first.

Three things that would have been the only story in any other week, all in the same seven days.

Friday July 10th: Department of War drops forty more Pursue files spanning 1948 to last year. Tonight Jeremy and Jake go through all of it.

The centerpiece is a 77-year-old transcript that sat classified until last Friday. On February 16th, 1949, Edward Teller, Lincoln La Paz, and the Los Alamos lab director convened a secret meeting about green fireballs streaking silently over their own nuclear installations. By the end, even Teller couldn't explain the horizontal flight path. The lab director closed the meeting admitting it remained unexplained. That meeting created Project Twinkle, a network of observation posts built to catch these things on instruments. It was shut down before it could.

Seventy years later: an unidentified object over the Pantex plant near Amarillo, Texas, the country's primary nuclear weapons assembly facility. Radar, trained witnesses, cameras, and video all converging on the same object above a nuclear weapons site with no explanation.

Also in the release: a photograph from the space shuttle Columbia, a 28-year Air Force and Navy veteran who saw something unlike anything in his career, and a Harvard astrophysicist revealing his science council has requested 50 additional files the Pentagon still hasn't handed over.

Congress reopens MKUltra. MIT hands over a 74-year-old recording tied to UFOs buzzing the Capitol in 1952. Whistleblower amnesty for recovered biologics moves forward. A military base couldn't keep unidentified objects out of its airspace for 17 straight days.

Luna's task force hauled a retired CIA officer before Congress to explain how the agency dosed Americans with LSD for twenty years without consent, then burned the paperwork. A CIA safe house in Germany may hold remains of some of those subjects.

MIT Lincoln Laboratory's 74-year-old recording is tied to the 1952 UAP incursion over Washington DC. A senator is building legal cover for whistleblowers to discuss recovered alien biologics.

Two Casias updates. New evidence at recovery site. Fellow missing Los Alamos worker Anthony Chavez spent his final weeks researching whether matter can exist in two places at once.

Most people assume their fascination with UFOs is something they arrived at on their own. A sighting. A documentary. A feeling the official story never quite added up. Almost nobody considers that the cultural framework making flying saucers feel plausible and worth chasing was largely the product of one man sitting behind a desk in Wisconsin, editing a pulp magazine called Amazing Stories.

Raymond Palmer understood that the line between a story and a belief is thinner than anyone wants to admit. When a welder named Richard Shaver began sending letters claiming an ancient subterranean civilization called the Deros was controlling human behavior from beneath the Earth's surface, Palmer didn't file it away. He published it, promoted it, and let it breathe until hundreds of thousands of readers were no longer sure whether they were reading fiction or testimony. By the time Kenneth Arnold's 1947 sighting gave the world the term flying saucer, the audience Palmer spent years cultivating was ready and waiting.

Tonight, Dr. Dean Bertram, historian and filmmaker behind the award-winning documentary short The Shaver Mystery, and his filmmaking partner Samantha Krause, Wisconsin native and co-creator of Home Movie Legend Trip, take us down that rabbit hole. Who invented flying saucers? And what does that mean for the disclosure conversations happening right now?
