Jesse Michels is a filmmaker podcaster and investor who has spent years at the intersection of Silicon Valley money and the most seriously documented questions about unidentified aerial phenomena. He has worked at Peter Thiel's family office. He has appeared on Joe Rogan. He has built one of the most credible and most rigorously sourced independent research platforms on the UFO question operating in the public sphere. And in this conversation with Julian Dorey he confronts the question that most UFO coverage either avoids or cannot answer: is the phenomenon alien technology DARPA weaponry or a psychological operation — and what does the documented evidence actually support?

The alien technology versus DARPA weaponry thread is the episode's most practically significant analytical contribution. The UFO landscape contains a genuine and documented spectrum of possibilities — craft and phenomena that could represent non-human intelligence technology, could represent highly classified American or adversary military programs whose existence cannot be officially acknowledged, or could represent a deliberate combination of both in which genuine non-human phenomena are being used as cover for the development and deployment of technologies that could not otherwise be funded or tested without public scrutiny. Jesse Michels has investigated every branch of this spectrum and his assessment of what the evidence actually supports is one of the most carefully reasoned and most intellectually honest accounts of the UFO question available from someone with his level of access.

The psyop war thread is the episode's most alarming and most urgently relevant dimension. The UFO disclosure conversation that has been happening in American media and politics since 2017 is not in Michels' assessment a straightforward government acknowledgment of a phenomenon it has been studying. It is a managed information environment in which multiple competing interests — military contractors intelligence agencies foreign adversaries and private capital — are all using the UFO question to advance specific agendas that have nothing to do with telling the public the truth about what is in the sky. The psyop war is happening right now. And understanding which disclosures are genuine and which are designed to shape public perception in specific directions is the most important analytical challenge facing anyone trying to understand the UFO phenomenon honestly.

The Silicon Valley connection is the episode's most personally revealing dimension. Michels worked at Peter Thiel's fund — a position that gave him access to the conversations that the people with the most capital and the most government connections are having about UFOs artificial intelligence and the convergence of both. What Silicon Valley actually knows about the connection between non-human intelligence and the technologies being developed in classified American programs is significantly more developed and more alarming than what the public UFO disclosure conversation has yet acknowledged.

**Inside This Clip:**

- Whether UFOs represent alien technology DARPA weaponry or a deliberate combination of both

- The documented connection between UFO sighting patterns and nuclear facilities and advanced weapons programs

- What the psyop war around UFO disclosure actually is and why it is happening right now

- How multiple competing interests are using the UFO question to advance specific agendas

- What Jesse Michels found when he investigated the DARPA alien weaponry connection

- Why UFO disclosure is maladaptive for some people — and what that reveals about how the information is managed

- What Silicon Valley actually knows about non-human intelligence and classified technology programs

- The Peter Thiel connection and what the conversations at that level of capital actually sound like

- Why the most important UFO question is not whether the phenomenon is real but who controls the narrative around it

- Jesse Michels' most complete and most honestly alarming assessment of where the UFO disclosure story actually stands

This is the UFO conversation that goes past the sightings and the congressional hearings into the specific question of who is managing what you are being told — and why that question matters more than any individual sighting ever could.

Tom Cruise is the most famous Scientologist alive. He has been the church's most visible defender, its most powerful celebrity asset, and by multiple accounts, one of the most significant figures in Scientology's internal hierarchy — second only to David Miscavige himself. And yet almost everything the public thinks it knows about Tom Cruise's relationship with Scientology is surface level. In this episode, a former insider tells the stories that go underneath all of it — and Julian Dorey is visibly floored by what he hears.

These are not the stories that made it into the documentaries. This is not the couch-jumping clip or the interview where he defends the church. This is what Tom Cruise is actually like inside Scientology — how he is treated, what he demands, what he does, and what his presence means to the people around him when he arrives at the church's facilities. Former insiders have described the lengths Scientology goes to accommodate Cruise, but no one has told these particular stories with this level of detail and this kind of firsthand access.

What makes this conversation extraordinary is Julian's reaction. Julian Dorey has covered some of the most shocking stories in modern American institutional history — and in this episode, he is genuinely, visibly speechless. That alone tells you everything you need to know about the level of detail and the nature of what gets revealed here.

This is Tom Cruise as you have never heard him discussed — not as a movie star, not as a public figure, but as one of the most uniquely powerful and protected individuals inside one of the most controlled organizations in the world.

**Inside This Clip:**

- Firsthand stories about Tom Cruise's role and behavior inside Scientology

- How Tom Cruise is treated when he arrives at Scientology facilities

- The relationship between Tom Cruise and David Miscavige behind closed doors

- What former Sea Org members witnessed firsthand around Tom Cruise

- How Scientology's entire operation shifts when Cruise is involved

- The stories about Cruise that have never made it into public documentaries

- What Tom Cruise's real status inside Scientology's hierarchy actually looks like

- Why Cruise is considered so essential to Scientology's public survival

- How these stories left Julian Dorey completely speechless

- What this insider account reveals about power, celebrity, and control inside Scientology

Once you hear these stories, you will never watch a Tom Cruise movie the same way again.

In February 2016 Jeffrey Epstein sent an email to Peter Thiel stating "As you probably know I represent the Rothschilds." That sentence entered the official record of the United States Department of Justice and appeared within the corpus now known as the Epstein Files. Mainstream press institutions declined to treat the statement as a matter of structural importance despite its evidential weight. The name Rothschild appears nearly 4000 times in the files. The comparative frequency of other prominent surnames in the same archive remains materially lower. Zach Foust and Julian Dorey go through the Rothschild Epstein details that nobody dares to touch — and they do not walk past them.

According to the files Epstein provided estate planning and possibly other financial services for Ariane de Rothschild. Together with Mortimer Zuckerman they appear to have paid him $45 million — an unusually high sum for the work he said he was performing according to two estate planning experts who spoke with Forbes anonymously. A document dated October 5 2015 shows Epstein through his Southern Trust Company agreed with the Rothschild Group on a contract valued at $25 million covering risk analysis and algorithm-related services. Ariane de Rothschild corresponded dozens of times with Epstein and agreed to multiple meetings over about five years before his 2019 arrest — raising questions about an earlier characterisation by the bank of their relationship which said she met with Epstein only as part of her normal duties.

The Hitler email is the episode's most explosive single document. The files include an email exchange between Epstein and Ariane de Rothschild in which they discuss claims that Adolf Hitler lived in a shelter for the homeless reportedly funded by the Rothschild and Epstein families. The email was dated December 31 2018 — less than a year before Epstein's arrest. Foust examines what Epstein was doing by raising this reference in a private email to Ariane and what her response reveals about the dynamic between them.

The Les Wexner testimony thread is the episode's most legally significant contribution. Wexner — the billionaire founder of Victoria's Secret and Epstein's principal financial patron — testified under oath before the House Oversight Committee on February 18 2026 that he entrusted Epstein with full power of attorney on the basis of Epstein's personal work for the Rothschild family in France. That testimony connects Epstein's role as a fixer for the Rothschild banking dynasty directly to the mechanism through which he accumulated his extraordinary personal wealth and institutional access. When French investigators searched the Edmond de Rothschild bank's Paris office in March 2026 Ariane was a five-minute walk away briefing staff on the bank's strong business performance.

**Inside This Clip:**

- Epstein's email to Peter Thiel stating he represents the Rothschilds — and why mainstream press walked past it

- The Rothschild name appearing nearly 4000 times in the Epstein files and what that frequency establishes

- The $25 million contract between Epstein's Southern Trust Company and the Rothschild Group

- The $45 million total paid by Ariane de Rothschild and Mortimer Zuckerman — and why experts called it unusually high

- The Hitler email — what Epstein wrote to Ariane what she said back and what the exchange reveals

- Les Wexner's congressional testimony connecting his trust of Epstein to Epstein's Rothschild family work

- The French investigators raiding the Edmond de Rothschild Paris office in March 2026

- Why Ariane de Rothschild is the first non-bloodline person to run a Rothschild bank and what that means

- The editorial omission pattern — why mainstream institutions declined to treat these details as structurally important

- Zach Foust's full assessment of what the documented Rothschild Epstein connection actually establishes

This is the Rothschild Epstein story told with the documents the congressional testimony and the French investigation — by the one investigator and the one host willing to go through it without walking past the parts that most coverage decided not to touch.

Andrew Bustamante is a former CIA covert intelligence officer who operated on six of seven continents from 2007 to 2014, founder of EverydaySpy, and co-author of Shadow Cell: An Insider Account of America's New Spy War. He has been one of the most credible and most consistently returned guests on the Julian Dorey Podcast — and in this segment he covers the most consequential geopolitical and intelligence questions of 2026 with the specific analytical lens that only someone who has been inside the apparatus can bring. Israel in American politics. The CIA and Mossad partnership. His reaction to Trump's reelection. The US China conflict and his prediction. The Ukraine war situation. The Epstein file declassification. And what he is working on now.

The Israel in American politics thread is the episode's most politically significant and most carefully argued opening. Bustamante brings a former intelligence officer's framework to the question of Israeli influence in American political life — not as a partisan argument but as an analytical one about how foreign governments operate in the American political environment and what the documented record of that operation looks like from someone who has seen how these influence campaigns work from the inside of the institution that is supposed to be tracking them.

The CIA and Mossad partnership thread is the episode's most institutionally sensitive contribution. Bustamante has been more willing than almost any other former CIA officer to engage honestly with the question of how deep the CIA-Mossad relationship actually goes — what the formal structure of the partnership looks like, where the genuine analytical disagreements between the two agencies exist, and what the practical reality of an intelligence relationship built over seventy years means for the question of where American interests end and Israeli interests begin when the two agencies are working the same problem.

Bustamante's reaction to Trump's reelection adds the most personally revealing dimension. How a former CIA officer processes a presidential transition that has involved significant restructuring of the intelligence community — including the appointment of figures with specific and documented views about CIA's conduct — is a thread that most coverage of the intelligence community has not examined from this vantage point. His assessment of what Trump's return means for CIA operations domestically and internationally is one of the most practically informed available.

The Epstein file declassification closes the segment with the most personally significant thread for Julian's audience. What a former CIA covert officer thinks when he reads files that JD Vance said on Joe Rogan implicate CIA and Mossad connections at the highest level is a question that only someone with Bustamante's specific background can answer with genuine authority — and his assessment of what the files reveal and what they carefully avoid revealing is the most complete insider take on the Epstein intelligence question available publicly.

**Inside This Clip:**

- Israel in American politics — Bustamante's intelligence framework for understanding Israeli influence operations

- The CIA and Mossad partnership — what the formal structure and the practical reality actually look like

- Where genuine analytical disagreements between CIA and Mossad exist and what they reveal

- Andrew Bustamante's personal reaction to Trump's reelection and what it means for CIA

- The US China conflict — Bustamante's assessment and his specific prediction for how it escalates

- The Ukraine war situation — his read on the current state and where it goes from here

- The Epstein file declassification — what a former CIA officer thinks the files actually reveal

- Why the Epstein CIA connection that Vance named on Rogan lands differently when you have been inside

- What Andrew Bustamante is currently working on and what comes next

- Julian Dorey's reaction to Bustamante's most complete and most consequential assessment yet

This is the intelligence community's most important questions examined by the person who has been most willing to answer them honestly — a former CIA officer who has nothing left to protect and everything left to say.

Nic — The Fat Electrician, former Army 68W medic, journeyman electrician, jiu jitsu coach, and one of the most trusted voices in the veteran creator community — sits down with Julian Dorey for one of the most important financial conversations in the series. The subject is Social Security — the program that has been sold to American workers for nearly ninety years as a retirement safety net, deducted from every paycheck without consent, and managed by a federal government that has spent decades refusing to acknowledge the mathematical reality at the heart of the system: it is a Ponzi scheme. And unlike the private sector Ponzi schemes that result in prison sentences, this one is mandatory, government-run, and backed by the full faith and credit of a country that is running out of both.

The mechanics of Social Security as a Ponzi scheme are straightforward once you strip away the political language around it. Current workers pay current retirees. There is no individual account. There is no invested pool of capital generating returns. There is no vault somewhere with your name on it. What exists is a transfer payment system that works only as long as there are enough workers paying in to cover the benefits going out — and the demographic reality of America in 2026 makes that arithmetic increasingly impossible to sustain. The Fat Electrician breaks down exactly how the numbers work, why the system was designed in an era of demographics that no longer exists, and what the projected insolvency timeline actually means for every American currently under the age of fifty.

The political dimension of this conversation is the most explosive thread. Social Security is the third rail of American politics for a reason — politicians who acknowledge its mathematical reality face electoral consequences that make honesty almost impossible to sustain. The Fat Electrician and Julian Dorey examine exactly why this is the case, who benefits from keeping Americans in the dark about the system's fundamental insolvency, and what the difference is between a government that acknowledges a hard problem and works toward a real solution and a government that keeps collecting the payroll tax while quietly knowing the math does not work.

This is the Social Security conversation that your congressman will not have, your financial advisor will dance around, and your employer will never explain when they hand you your first paycheck. The Fat Electrician has it with the directness, the humor, and the genuine financial literacy that has made him one of the most trusted voices in the veteran creator space — and Julian Dorey draws out every uncomfortable truth with the precision and intellectual honesty that defines his best work.

**Inside This Clip:**

- Why the Fat Electrician describes Social Security as the biggest Ponzi scheme in American history

- The exact mechanics of how Social Security actually works — and why it is structurally identical to a Ponzi scheme

- Why the demographic reality of 2026 makes the system's original math impossible to sustain

- The projected insolvency timeline for Social Security and what it means for workers under 50

- Why politicians on both sides refuse to acknowledge Social Security's mathematical reality

- Who benefits from keeping Americans in the dark about the system's fundamental insolvency

- What the difference is between a Ponzi scheme that sends you to prison and one that is mandatory and government-run

- Why Social Security was designed for a demographic reality that no longer exists

- What Julian Dorey and the Fat Electrician believe should replace or reform the current system

- Why this is the most important financial conversation every working American needs to have right now

This is the Social Security conversation the government has spent ninety years hoping you would never have — and the Fat Electrician is done waiting for permission to have it.

Baron Coleman — the independent investigator who has spent more time examining the specific evidence and the specific anomalies in the Charlie Kirk assassination than any other public figure — sits down with Julian Dorey for the most comprehensive and most analytically complete conversation on the case that has yet been recorded. This is not a conversation about one specific anomaly or one specific theory. This is Baron Coleman going through the full picture of strangeness that the Charlie Kirk assassination has produced — the ballistic evidence, the medical examiner's impossible description, the footage discrepancies, the Tyler Robinson timeline gaps, the Discord messages, the roof figure, the security protocol failures, the newly assembled protection team, the TPUSA internal temperature, the Erika Kirk behavioral anomalies, the WWE vibe, the memorial speech that set off so many alarms — and explaining why the accumulation of all of it examined together rather than in isolation produces a picture that is more alarming than any individual element alone.

The ballistic and medical thread anchors the episode's most technically specific contributions. The .30-06 round tests that broke Coleman's confidence in the official narrative. The medical examiner's description of injuries running from Kirk's heart to the top of his head that Coleman argues is forensically impossible given the documented conditions. The 99.96% confidence that the cause of death was not a .30-06 round. The specific element in the recently filed motion that moved Coleman's confidence to that level. These are not allegations or interpretations. They are specific technical findings that the official account has not addressed.

The operational and institutional thread anchors the episode's most practically significant contributions. The security team that was newly put together. The protocol failures from point of attack to car to hospital. The TPUSA higher-ups who are not supportive of Erika Kirk. The people from inside TPUSA who have been reaching out to Coleman. The Tyler Robinson timeline gaps and the absence of convincing evidence placing him on campus. The Discord messages and group that add more inconsistencies. The figure on the roof and Coleman's theory about what it actually was.

The behavioral and communicative thread anchors the episode's most personally sensitive contributions. The WWE vibe. Erika Kirk's first public walk out. The memorial speech that set off so many alarms. The scrutiny that comes directly from how she has been dealing with everything. And the conclusion Coleman is now prepared to state most directly — that the accumulation of everything he has examined makes the official account of the Charlie Kirk assassination one of the least credible official accounts of a major political event in recent American history.

**Inside This Clip:**

- The full picture of strangeness in the Charlie Kirk assassination — every major anomaly examined together

- The .30-06 ballistic evidence and why Coleman is 99.96% confident it was not the cause of death

- The medical examiner's impossible description and the injuries from heart to top of head

- The footage discrepancies and what they show that the official account cannot explain

- The Tyler Robinson timeline gaps and the absence of convincing evidence placing him on campus

- The Discord messages the group and the additional inconsistencies they reveal

- The roof figure and Coleman's theory about what it actually was

- The security protocol failures and why the newly assembled team matters

- The TPUSA internal temperature and what higher-ups are saying about Erika Kirk

- The Erika Kirk behavioral anomalies the WWE vibe the memorial speech and the full optics picture

This is the Charlie Kirk assassination examined in its full documented strangeness — by the one investigator who has been through enough of the evidence to know that the accumulation of anomalies demands an answer that the official account has not provided.

The week of July 28 2026 produced three simultaneous stories that Julian Dorey argues belong in the same conversation — not because they are directly connected but because they each represent the same fundamental dynamic: powerful institutions and powerful individuals operating without accountability while the American public is either uninformed or deliberately distracted. Fauci took the Fifth 111 times rather than explain his private diary. Iranian cyberattacks against Israel tripled. And Netanyahu met Trump Vance Rubio and Hegseth in the Oval Office the day before a CIA assessment explained what Israel was actually racing to accomplish.

The Fauci thread is the episode's most personally enraging and most historically significant contribution. On July 29 2026 Fauci appeared before the Senate Homeland Security Committee subpoenaed by Rand Paul and invoked the Fifth Amendment rather than answer questions about a private diary that shows he privately believed COVID could be man-made while publicly calling the lab leak theory a conspiracy. Ten of the twelve scientists on his February 1 2020 call believed COVID could have been deliberately inserted. Fauci wrote it down. Then went on national radio and called the theory a conspiracy. His diary also shows he privately described US-funded Wuhan experiments as gain of function — the same research he testified to Congress the US did not fund. He took the Fifth 111 times. Julian unloads.

The Iranian cyberattack thread is the episode's most operationally significant and most underreported contribution. Iranian cyberattacks against Israel tripled in 2026 — from approximately 1600 hostile incidents in June 2025 to roughly 4800 in June 2026. Israel's cyber chief warned there is no ceasefire in cyberspace. Iranian cyber groups that previously acted autonomously are now sharing information and coordinating attacks following direct orders from Tehran's leadership. The same week Netanyahu was in the White House Iranian cyber operations were accelerating — a parallel front the official readout of the Trump Netanyahu meeting carefully did not address.

**Inside This Clip:**

- Fauci's July 29 Senate hearing — 111 Fifth Amendment invocations and what his diary actually shows

- The February 1 2020 call — ten of twelve scientists believed COVID could be man-made

- Fauci's private gain of function diary entries vs his congressional testimony

- Why the social media censorship of the lab leak theory was built on a consensus Fauci privately contradicted

- Iranian cyberattacks tripling in 2026 and the coordination of previously autonomous cyber groups

- Why there is no ceasefire in cyberspace and what that means alongside the kinetic pause

- The July 28 Netanyahu Trump Vance Rubio Hegseth Oval Office meeting — what was and was not disclosed

- The CIA assessment on Israel's goal of making the alliance irreversible through embedded technology

- Netanyahu's stated desire to wean Israel off US aid while the CIA documents the structural dependency strategy

- Why Julian Dorey says these three stories from the same week define where America actually is right now

This is the week of July 28 2026 examined with the honesty and the completeness that the most consequential seven days of the year deserves — and that the mainstream news cycle consistently failed to provide.

Douglas Rushkoff — MIT's most important living intellectual, author of Survival of the Richest, and one of the most clear-eyed analysts of power, technology, and elite behavior alive — has spent decades orbiting the organizations that most people only encounter as conspiracy theory fodder. The Club of Rome. Bilderberg. The gatherings of the people who actually run things. In this conversation with Julian Dorey he does something almost no one with genuine insider access to these organizations has done: he describes what they are actually like — and why the reality is simultaneously less sinister and more disturbing than the mythology suggests.

The Club of Rome conversation opens the episode with one of the most illuminating reframes of elite organizational culture available anywhere. Rushkoff joined — and describes the experience with the intellectual honesty and genuine curiosity that defines his best work. The Club of Rome is not Bilderberg. It is not a secret cabal meeting in a castle. It is, as Rushkoff describes it, essentially Zoom calls. Meetings of smart, concerned people who have been thinking about the limits to growth — the concept the Club made famous in its 1972 report — and what happens when an economic and technological civilization built on the assumption of perpetual exponential expansion runs into the physical limits of a finite planet. The question Rushkoff keeps returning to is the one that matters most: where is the group of a few hundred people actually thinking seriously about how to stop this train from going off a cliff?

The Bilderberg comparison is the episode's most myth-deflating thread. A person Rushkoff knows attended Bilderberg — and his account of what it was actually like lands with the same gentle disappointment of every conspiracy theory that encounters reality. It is not a big deal, in the sense that most conspiracy theorists imagine. It is a gathering of powerful people who already know each other, talking about things they already broadly agree on, in a context that feels exclusive because it is exclusive — but not because it is directing history from a secret room.

The exponential growth mindset thread is the episode's most important analytical contribution — and the one that connects the Club of Rome to the Survival of the Richest thesis that has defined Rushkoff's most important recent work. The mindset that drives the people who built Silicon Valley, Wall Street, and the global financial system is a specific and identifiable pathology — the belief that growth can and must be perpetual, that limits are engineering problems to be solved rather than realities to be accepted, and that the appropriate response to a world approaching its limits is to double down on the technologies and economic systems that created those limits in the first place. This is not a conspiracy. It is a worldview — and understanding it is more important than any list of attendees at any secret meeting.

**Inside This Clip:**

- How Douglas Rushkoff got invited to the Club of Rome and what the experience was actually like

- What the Club of Rome actually does — and why it is nothing like the conspiracy theory version

- The Bilderberg insider account — why someone who attended says it is not a big deal

- What actually happens when you join elite organizations like the Club of Rome

- The exponential growth mindset driving the people who want to grow forever — and why it terrifies Rushkoff

- How the Club of Rome's Limits to Growth thesis from 1972 applies to the world in 2026
