Havana Syndrome is not crickets, not mass hysteria, and not psychogenic illness — and Pentagon advisor Dr. James Giordano has the credentials and firsthand investigation to prove it. Days after 60 Minutes revealed the Pentagon secretly purchased and tested a directed energy weapon that reproduced the injuries, Georgetown neuroscientist Giordano joins The Good Trouble Show to deliver the most definitive expert account of Havana Syndrome to date.

 

In 2018, Dr. Giordano briefed U.S. Special Operations Command and called these attacks "a beta test of a viable neuro weapon" — six years before the government's secret weapon purchase became public. He personally investigated 24-25 members of the original Havana cohort and confirms over 100 validated cases worldwide.

 

In this interview, we cover directed energy and neuroweapons science, device miniaturization, the broader neuroweapons landscape, proliferation risks, the absence of international treaty protections, connections to anomalous phenomena research, and the human cost to service members who were injured and then told it was all in their heads.

 

Dr. James Giordano is Professor of Neurology, Biochemistry, and Ethics at Georgetown University Medical Center, Senior Scientific Advisor to the Pentagon and DARPA, advisor to NATO and the World Health Organization, and heads the Center for Strategic Deterrence and Study of WMD at the National Defense University. He holds TS/SCI clearance.

Air Force security guard Richard Barth spent 60 years keeping a secret. In 1964, while guarding Minuteman nuclear missiles at Vandenberg Air Force Base, Barth says a non-human entity made contact — and delivered a warning about nuclear war that touches the heart of national security at its most classified level.

On this episode of The Good Trouble Show, Matt Ford sits down with Barth and UFO researcher Robert Hastings — author of UFOs and Nukes and the man who spent 40 years documenting military UAP incidents at nuclear weapons facilities — for a conversation six decades in the making. It's one of the most compelling UAP witness accounts ever recorded: a credentialed military eyewitness, a nuclear missile site, and a message the government never wanted public. Barth's testimony raises questions about UAP incidents near nuclear weapons that UFO research has pursued for decades — and what national security agencies may still be hiding.

Explore the secretive history of CIA psychic experiments, remote viewing programs, and Project SOAR in this riveting episode of The Good Trouble Show. Cognitive neuroscientist Dr. Julia Mossbridge joins host Matt Ford to investigate whether the 1980s "gifted" and talented education programs were covert fronts for government ESP research targeting children. 

Dive deep into redacted school records, GATE program anomalies, and the CIA’s use of hearing tests and pharmaceuticals to identify children with psychic potential. This episode links these covert operations to current events involving UAP (unidentified aerial phenomena), UFO research, and national security disclosures, providing a rare glimpse into the intersection of science, intelligence, and the UFO phenomenon.

If you were part of a gifted program in the 1980s, this insightful interview about government psychic programs like Project SOAR might illuminate forgotten memories and raise new questions about the involvement of secretive agencies in educational initiatives.

Join us as USAF Captain (Ret.) Dr. Bob Jacobs reveals a remarkable firsthand account of filming a UFO intercepting a nuclear warhead during a classified missile test — a pivotal moment in UFO research and national security history.

This episode details the 1964 Big Sur Incident where an unidentified flying object disrupted an Atlas F missile test over the Pacific Ocean. Dr. Jacobs, tasked with the telescopic imaging team, captured the event that was later seized by secretive government agencies, leading to a profound coverup and enforced silence.

In this exclusive interview, we analyze the UFO phenomenon through the eyewitness testimony of a credible military officer and discuss the implications of government UFO disclosure and national security. We break down each frame of the encounter, consider the physics behind a UFO shooting down a nuclear warhead, and explore how this event fits within broader political whistleblower narratives and the ongoing debate on UAPs.

Don't miss this extraordinary testimony revealing deep layers of governmental secrecy on Capitol Hill and beyond, shedding light on one of the most classified incidents involving unidentified flying objects and their impact on global security.

👇 IN THIS EPISODE:
The 2025-2030 Timeline: Why the next few years are the most consequential in human history.
The 4 Intelligences: How AI, Nature, and ETs are converging.
The "Psi" Language: Learning to communicate with consciousness and nature.
State of the World Forum: Details on the upcoming global event (Dec 14-17).
Join us as we explore why UAP Disclosure isn't just about government secrets—it's about the evolution of human consciousness.
