December 27, 2024 Orb UAP over Hill Air Force Base, Utah | UAP Files Podcast S2E52
In this episode of the UAP Files podcast, we speak with Trevor, a firsthand witness to a mysterious orb UFO/UAP sighting over Hill Air Force Base in Layton, Utah, on December 18, 2024. Trevor captured two videos of what appeared to be a glowing, energetic orb hovering silently above his home near the base. The sighting took place between 9:12 PM and 9:59 PM, with the object displaying blue and green hues and exhibiting an unusual “energy-like” appearance.
Hill AFB, located about 30 miles north of Salt Lake City, is home to the 75th Air Base Wing and the Ogden Air Logistics Complex, which supports F-35s, F-16s, A-10s, and intercontinental ballistic missile systems. Given the base’s logistics and reconnaissance work, this sighting raises intriguing questions about what might have been observed that night.
Trevor shares his firsthand account of the event, describing the object's size, shape, and movement, as well as its striking resemblance to a star with energetic colors. He also recounts seeing a low-flying plane over the base just moments before the sighting, adding another layer of mystery to the encounter.
Join us as we analyze the footage, discuss Trevor’s experience, and explore the growing frequency of UFO sightings around the world.

December 23, 2024 George Knapp’s USO: ENHANCED | Investigation Alien | UAP Files Podcast S2E50
In this episode I’m joined by my friends Tom Vernon (TomVernonUAP on yoUtUBE) AND Peter Osborne (TruthInFocusUFO on YouTube) to discuss the George Knapp USO case from his latest Netflix show Investigation Alien. Peter has been working tirelessly with his incredible enhancement skills on the footage from the Netflix show of that USO and the results are epic. We’ll dive in to those enhancements, discuss the show, George Knapp in general and a catch up with Tom and Peter.
The Case: George Knapp joins underwater archaeologist Rory Kramer and his diving partner Anthony Reynolds as they explore the depths near the Channel Islands, specifically near a sacred native site with reported USO (Unidentified Submerged Object) activity. During their dive, they observe unusual structures on the ocean floor and, at one point, spot what appears to be a USO, which vanishes as suddenly as it appeared. Later, when the team are asleep, the night watchman spots the object, an apparent orb, coming down from the sky and submerging in to the water. This is the object Peter has been working on to enhance for your viewing pleasure. The object tin the sky and the object as it goes in to and submerges itself in the water.

December 22, 2024 Drones / Conventional Aircraft: The Debate Between Eyewitnesses & Debunkers | UAP Files SPECIAL
Today, I’m sharing new footage of an object that cannot be mistaken for a conventional aircraft. But this video isn’t just about the footage—it’s about how skeptics and debunkers want you to feel: stupid.
👀 Skeptics argue that eyewitnesses—police officers, military personnel, mayors, and even digital cameras—are all misidentifying common drones or planes. But what about cases that defy simple explanations?
🔍 We dig into:
Claims from skeptics like Mick West that UFOs are often just misidentified planes or stars.
How tracking tools like FlightRadar24 and ADS-B Exchange can help verify (or debunk) footage.
The spread of misinformation around drones, laser incidents, and their connection to pilot safety.
👤 We also bring in our trusted UAP Files correspondent, Aztlan, to share firsthand knowledge and clear footage. Together, we analyze it the same way skeptics do—checking for nearby aircraft and tracking radar data.
This isn’t just a critique of skepticism—it’s a call for better dialogue and evidence-based analysis. Don’t miss the compelling footage and the breakdown of one of the most misunderstood debates in the UFO community.

December 12, 2024 RAF Lakenheath | Firsthand Witness, Livestreamer w/ Footage | UAP Files Podcast S2E48 | Dad Rants
The following is a conversation with Chris from Dad Rants over on the X platform “Chrissybobs24”. Chris has been covering the RAF Lakenheath drone incursions for the last couple of week providing us quality footage whilst out there freezing his butt off so we don’t have to - what a legend.
In this conversation we will discuss the facts as he knows them, his experiences at the base during the key times reported across the world and get some insights in to what’s flying around, what the military response appears to be and any speculation on what the incisions may be or represent. Drones - or UAPs - outpacing military jets, playing with them, flashes of light, weird interference with electronics, plus the added bonus, I ask Chris what it’s like being thrust in to the UFO community and the reception he’s had.

December 06, 2024 Capture The BEST UFO/UAP Imagery | w/ Ezra Kelderman, Galileo Project | UAP Files Podcast S2E47
UAP Files Podcast S2E47 | Ezra Kelderman

The following is a conversation with Ezra Kelderman.
Ezra is a systems engineer, the current Project Manager for Harvards Galileo Project. Yes, that Galileo Project, the one headed by Professor Avi Loeb
I spoke to Ezra last year on the UAP Files Podcast about his role in the Galileo Project (Season 1, Episode 20) where Ezra spoke with me at length about his work on UAP, his first sighting of something unexplainable in the sky when he was younger and about all things weird and wonderful UFO related.
We kept in touch and chat behind the scenes. Since our last conversation I’ve had hundreds and hundreds of DMs from people asking me what kind of technology is out there to capture better UFO/UAP imagery and data. What is affordable and for some, what’s the best out there if money is no limit. And everything in between. And i’ve always been honest, I know what I look for when people send me footage, but i’m no expert when it comes to the capture of that imagery and data, but I man who is.
Ezra was kind enough to put together some slides and a presentation as a sort of introduction to citizen UAP analysis, best practices and some tips he’s learned doing this as a profession. Something people have been asking for and I think something that is hugely needed in this subject. After all, we’ve been asking our governments for transparency for decades. Perhaps it’s time to take matters in to our own hands and go out there as citizens and find that evidence ourselves and move away from blurry cell phone footage and start collecting some solid data.
Ezra has been an absolute legend working on this, putting it together and sitting down with me for the following hour. He’s an awesome guy and wonderful person to have connected with last year and I am hugely appreciative of his hard work and effort.

November 26, 2024 Kumburgaz / Turkey UFO (ENHANCED) | UAP Files Podcast S2E46 | Peter Osborne
The Kumburgaz UFO case (2007-2009), filmed by Yalcin Yalman in Turkey, is hailed as some of the best UFO footage ever captured. But it’s also faced intense skepticism, with claims it’s a cruise ship or a hoax.
In this video, we revisit Yalcin’s story, the independent expert analysis confirming the footage as genuine, and the flawed "debunks" from Mick West and others. Then, we showcase Peter Osborne’s incredible restoration work, revealing new details about the craft and its mysterious "cockpit."
Plus, we’re thrilled to announce Peter’s new YouTube channel, Truth in Focus, where he’ll share his amazing enhancements of famous UFO footage. Don’t miss this deep dive into one of the most debated cases in UFO history.

November 18, 2024 UAP Files Podcast S2E45 | Peter Osborne | Houston Lights UFO (ENHANCED)
In today’s episode I’m talking to my friend Peter Osborn again. An expert in old image and footage refinement and restoration. We worked together recently talking about the Colombian UAP filmed by from an airline pilot, footage from 2020, and the footage made waves to say the least. It’s still being debated today and is one of the most watched videos on the UAP Files Podcast YouTube channel.
In today’s episode we’ll talk through the lesser known Houston Lights case from Texas March 30th, 2015 (Mufon case 65255), previously analysed by Mufon and we’ll see the absolutely incredible footage and screen grabs Peter’s managed to find and we’ll share it with you today - some of the footage is breathtaking.
Original Footage and background of the Houston Lights Case:
On the night of March 30, 2015, at around 2:30 a.m., a resident of Houston, Texas, witnessed something extraordinary. The witness, an amateur videographer who had a camcorder at the ready in their truck, initially mistook the object for a star. However, as it began to shift colours, curiosity took over, leading them to record the anomaly. The full statement, submitted to MUFON, gives an in-depth look into their experience:
"At first, I thought it was a star, but then I noticed that it was changing color. I grabbed my camcorder out of the truck and started recording. As I zoomed in, it disappeared from my viewfinder twice. The third time I tried to record, I was able to capture a metallic gray spherical object in the sky."
The witness described the object morphing in shape, at one point resembling the moon, before it began a slow, deliberate movement westward. The recording session lasted approximately 3.5 minutes, but the event stretched on until nearly 4:30 a.m., concluding when the object vanished into the early morning sky.

November 16, 2024 UAP Files Podcast S2E44 | Pat Berlinquette | Above Us | UFO/UAP Tracking App and Demo
The following is a conversation with Pat Berlinquette.
Pat is a fantastic musician, and an incredibly humble guy. This is our second conversation. Pat runs a successful business in Google Marketing, as well as being a writer, one of my favourite musicians, a standup comic and UFO/UAP tracking website and app creator, which is the focus of this conversation today. With his app just launched and available in the App Store.
Above Us is a new app Pat has developed to track as close to real time as possible, UFO/UAP sightings and plot them on a map, overlaying military and nuclear sites across the USA. A great resource for research and totally unique in that no one is doing this.
Today we’ll dive in to the app and test it and Pat will explain how it all works. We’ll also talk about a whole host of other things that I just love, like music, books, standup and UFO rabbit-holes.
Was great to catch up with Pat again and I look forward to sharing this conversation with you.
