Greetings Undercover Agent. You are receiving this message because you have shown curiosity in the face of mystery, courage in times of challenge, and fortitude in the mirrors of ridicule. Okay, that’s probably a bit much.

In this report, we will embark on an enthralling journey to explore the fascinating history of Area 51, delve into the realm of conspiracy theories that have shrouded its existence, and even take a closer look at the whimsical social event that sought to unveil its secrets.

This is Renegade Files Episode 42, Children With Past Life Memories.

Many cultures and religions have deep beliefs in reincarnation, past lives, and a cyclical nature of birth and rebirth. For many people in such societies and groups, the idea of returning to live on Earth after having been here before, is part of their everyday lives.

But for others the notion of a living person’s soul, personality, or identity having existed in some manner before they, as we know them, were born, falls squarely into the realm of the paranormal. Some see these ideas as fantasy, delusion, or mere entertainment.

But for families with children who insist they have been here before, the experience can be everything from comforting and awe-inspiring, to frightening and stressful.

On this episode of Renegade Files we’ll look into several such cases of children who know and can do things that no one can explain. The detailed recollections of previous lives they, themselves, insist they lived baffle doctors, caregivers, and scientists alike.

Most often the children grow up to adjust and be fine, and the phenomenon is, for the most part, while not without it’s downsides, not a terribly negative one.

So stretch out on the chaise lounge of curiosity, open your mind to unexplained possibilities, and join me as we dive into the unexplained worlds of Children With Past Life Memories.

This is Renegade Files Episode 41, Conmen and Hoaxers.

First and foremost, as a disclaimer, this is not a how-to podcast. Don’t be a conman. That being said, this is a subject I’ve always had a dark fascination with.

In a world of Nigerian Princes and Fake Amazon Frozen Account Emails, there is something nostalgic about the old school face-to-face con. The boldness and charisma of someone who can convince others to hand over fistfuls of cash is, while despicable, impressive. And hoaxes that cause society to take a better look at itself in the mirror have a place in modern folklore.

First we’ll quickly cover the basics of con language, types of scams, and the general ways conmen operate. Then we’ll dive deep to learn about some of the world’s most infamous conmen, grifters, and hoaxers.

Thanks for tuning in.

This is Renegade Files Episode 40, Folklore In The Information Age.

On this episode we dive deep to explore a relevant and critical question: How has the world of communication technology altered the social process of Folklore?

This is important because, as a society, our legends, folklore, and myths define our hopes, our imaginations, and warn us of peril. Tribal cultures employed folklore to educate the young, to explain very real dangers, and to keep valuable traditions and knowledge alive.

But what happens when the tools we use to communicate evolve light years beyond campfire tales, and late night one-on-one conversations?

How has our modern information tech driven and influenced our legends, our beliefs, and our relationships to the fantastical?

What are the implications of an internet that creates its own legends, its own folklore, and its own digital mythology?

Come with me now and together we will take a ride on the wild side, into the bizarre confluence of internet ideas and vision-quest realms, where ancient archetypes become the digitized deities of… Folklore In The Information Age.

This is Renegade Files Episode 39, The Trinity UFO Crash.

Shortly Before the much publicized events at Roswell, long before the modern soft disclosures of AATIP, and just one month after the first nuclear weapon detonation test, an unidentified craft crashed on a ranch just beyond the perimeter of White Sands Missile Range in New Mexico.

The craft went undetected by the military for days, during which time it was known only to some very young cowboys who witnessed the crash and explored the downed object. Soon one of their father’s also visited the crash site, together with a state policeman.

The craft was eventually carted away by the Army, and the mystery of this unknown object became simultaneously one of the most interesting, and least known UFO events to ever occur on US soil.

So saddle up and ride out with Lex Gordon once again, into that most active of Window Areas: the American Southwest. Take the Renegade Files Railroad back in time to the final days of WWII, and investigate what could be one of the most important occurrences ever in the world of UFO Studies… The Trinity UFO Crash.

This is Renegade Files Episode 38, The Stephenville UFO Sightings.

At sunset on 8 January 2008, several residents of a small town in Texas saw an enormous flying object with multiple lights that changed shape, changed orientation, moved at incredible speeds, and was pursued by Airforce Fighter Jets. Witnesses included a Pilot, A Government Security officer, and more than one Policeman.

Local newspaper reporter Angelia Joiner wrote two articles on the sightings, and when these were picked up by the larger news agencies, the story became national news.

What followed was a series of UFO Sighting events that checks many boxes of intrigue. An initial military denial, their subsequently changed story, a fired reporter, and corroborating radar data that confirms the sightings.

This is a fascinating story about a unique and bizarre UFO, several genuine witnesses, military back-peddling, one reporter’s extreme dedication to uncovering the truth, and the hard and thoughtful work of a MUFON Field Investigator who dove deep to discover evidence that proves this case to be much more than tripping townsfolk seeing shooting stars at sundown. 

Come with me now as we pack our field excursion kits, fill the rotopax cans with extra fuel, and head into Central Texas Cow Country to investigate The Stephenville UFO Sightings.

This is Renegade Files Episode 37, The Cyber Industrial Complex 

For years it was rumored in conspiracy theory land that the US government was using modern technologies to illegally spy on free citizens. Edward Snowden proved this to be true, but the ways in which we conduct our daily lives scarcely trembled. 

As information and its access became an increasingly complex spider web, the hacktivist group Anonymous emerged to shed light upon and throw obstacles at some who either hid important information or used it for nefarious purposes.

From the ashes of Anonymous came Barrett Brown, a journalist and computer information expert who dove deep into the connections and activities of computer espionage at the most clandestine levels.

The interconnections of government contractors, lucrative side deals, and wholesale spycraft he discovered have led to the term Cyber-Industrial Complex. 

This is the story of what that nebulous collective seems to be up to, and what you need to know about the possibility for a coming, contrived, Cyber Pandemic Disaster False Flag.

Travel with your old pal Lex Gordon to a really fun UFO and Paranormal Conference even deeper in the uncharted tropics. 

This episode was originally produced as a Patreon Bonus Episode, but I also wanted to share the UFO Conference Road Trip Experience with our general podcast audience as well, so I am also posting here for you, for free.

This will also let you take a look behind the Patreon Curtain so to speak.

The PBEs have a different theme song and maybe a different feel, especially this one because it’s a field excursion. That’s all. Thank you for always being cool and open minded about Renegade Files, and I hope you enjoy this free Patreon Bonus Episode. 

We’ll get right back to the regular episodes in just a few days with Renegade Files Episode 37, when we dive deep into the dark world of the Cyber-Industrial Complex and their pending Cyber-Pandemic False Flag. Important stuff there so get ready. In the mean time enjoy this free Patreon Bonus Episode. This one’s on me. Cheers.

This is Renegade Files Episode 36, Native American Aliens and Wild West UFOs.

The Ancient Alien hypothesis has been given more that its share of attention over the past few years. The History Channel, Youtube creators, and fringe authors all seem to have something to say about Aliens and UFOs in ancient history and the leeway given to interpretations of old manuscripts, stories, and legends is wide indeed.

But long before the likes of Zecharia Sitchen and Erich von Daniken put pen to paper, the Indigenous tribes of North America had a rich oral tradition of not just moving lights in the night skies, but tales of brothers from deep space that make the hijinks of the Annunaki sound like bedtime stories. The range-riding cowboys of the American Frontier also encountered flying objects, crashed crafts, and told many tales of unexplained objects flying through the big skies.

This is a special episode for me because it combines three subjects that I have strong interests in and deep respect for: The Extraterrestrial UFO Hypothesis, Native American Wisdom, and that unique moment in time that was the American Wild West.

Saddle up your best horse, grab your soogan and your favorite hat, and ride with me into the great North American West to sit by prairie campfires and listen to the old-timer tales of mysterious celestial beings who traveled across the stars to bring knowledge, new skills, and maps of the cosmos to the earliest First Peoples of the land. And for the trail we’ll need to buy a newspaper, 2 bottles of whiskey, 4 pounds of beef jerky, a side of bacon, 2 pounds of dried beans, 2 blankets, and a bushel of horse grain, so bring 15 cents.

This time on Renegade Files, we’ll learn all about Native American Aliens and Wild West UFOs.

This is Renegade Files Episode 35, The Secret Space Force 

Each year over $90 billion dollars is allocated to clandestine government operations. Collectively known as the Black Budget, the precise usage of these funds is not public knowledge.

Documents indicate that at least $10billion dollars per year of such secret cash has been used to create an underground military space force, long before the official creation of our current Space Force branch of the US Military.

What has been accomplished with these efforts, this money, and what is such an agency up to, if one does, in fact, exist?

In this episode of Renegade Files we’ll look into the early years of NASA and the relationships between the discoveries NASA makes in space and the US military. 

Then we’ll dive deep into the activities of notorious Computer Hacker Gary Mckinnon, to learn all about what he discovered when he cracked the Penatgon’s database, and found evidence of a longstanding secret space branch of the armed forces. 

Finally we will explore the recently minted United States Space Force. What exactly is their purpose, what do they do, what is this space weapon that only awaits the president’s approval for disclosure, and what the heck is the X-37B Secret Space Plane?

This time on Renegade Files we explore the far reaches of… The Secret Space Force.
