In the second half of an extended interview Jeremy and George are joined by New York Times journalist Ralph Blumenthal, co-author of the game-changing 2017 UFO story. The trio dive deep into the life of Dr. John Mack, the Pulitzer Prize-winning Harvard psychiatrist who dared to take alien abduction seriously - and paid a steep price for it. The journalists unpack Mack’s desperate fight to preserve his tenure during a secret Harvard 'inquisition' in the 1990s, his courageous expedition to the African town of Ruwa, Zimbabwe, to investigate the astonishing 1994 close encounter witnessed by 60 schoolchildren, and his provocative theories linking UFO incidents to paranormal experiences. Blumenthal pulls back the curtain on a man who saw a universe far stranger than we’re told, from abductions to crop circles and beyond.

But the story doesn’t end with Mack. Blumenthal shares insider perspectives on the modern UFO frontier - why whistleblowers still fear coming forward, and the uphill battle for full disclosure in a skeptical world.

This episode is a call to arms for independent journalism to uncover what’s really out there, revealing the challenges of reporting the unreportable and the relentless pursuit of the unknown.

In the eight decades since the modern UFO era began, few dates are as monumentally important as Dec. 16, 2017. That is when The New York Times published a blockbuster story about a secretive government investigation into alarming and ongoing encounters between U.S. military units and unidentified machines of unknown origin - machines that appear to be far more advanced than any technology known to exist on Earth.

The fact that The New York Times, regarded as "the paper of record" and possibly the most respected news platform in the country, plastered the UFO exposé on the front page of its Dec. 17 edition sent shockwaves through American journalism, grabbed the attention of Congress, and reignited public interest in a subject that had been largely ignored or ridiculed - not only by The Times, but by nearly every major news organization in the Western world. The ripple effects from that report are still unfolding more than seven years later.

The three journalists who worked on the story - Helene Cooper, Leslie Kean, and Ralph Blumenthal - somehow managed to overcome decades of government disinformation, scientific ridicule, and editorial scorn to get the story into the paper. Blumenthal, a brilliant, award-winning newsman, staked his reputation and career on that one report. How did he and his colleagues pull it off? What other secrets did they uncover that never made it into print?

In a candid and highly personal conversation, Blumenthal reveals to Jeremy and George the difficulties that confronted the three journalists, including blowback from their colleagues, arguments with editors, and the conspiracy theories espoused by the loudest voices in the always rancorous UFO community.

The story about AATIP, Tic Tac, Elizondo, Harry Reid, and other key players was not Blumenthal's entry point to the UFO debate. He was already investigating the life and career of a brilliant, mercurial, and flawed trailblazer - a Harvard psychiatrist named Dr. John Mack. Like the late Dr. Mack, Blumenthal suspects that the personal encounters between humans and non-humans, as reported by tens of thousands of people all over the world, might be far more important than the competition between world powers to master the technological secrets stashed deep inside the bowels of black-world programs.

UFOs did not suddenly appear on Earth in 1947. They have been seen and reported for centuries. The same is true for USOs - unknown objects which have been witnessed under oceans, lakes, rivers, or other bodies of water. Author and historian Richard Dolan has just unleashed the first volume of his epic investigation of USO cases around the world. After years of meticulous research, Dolan has documented the depth and breadth of the USO cases, with dramatic cases from around the world, including specific details about alleged trans-medium craft capable of moving with ease through water, air, or space. What are they doing under the waves? Are there alien bases hidden in the depths? What evidence has been collected by mariners, sailors, and naval forces, dating back to ancient times up to the present? In this candid conversation, Dolan shares with Jeremy and George many of the most compelling incidents and encounters that are documented in his new book "A History of USOs, Vol. 1"

Truth and transparency are red-hot buzzwords in Washington these days. New inquiries into old secrets within multiple agencies have been launched, but what about NASA? America's space agency has been overtly hostile to UFO and UAP mysteries for decades, but what secrets might be hidden in its archives? Veteran space executive and NASA consultant Mike Gold, one of four witnesses to testify at the most recent Congressional hearing into UAP, thinks NASA files could be extremely valuable to UAP-related research, including clues that could unlock how to replicate exotic substances and metamaterials in zero gravity and possibly data that might shed light on historic UFO incidents. Gold is a member of NASA's UAP Study Committee. He previously spent a decade with Bigelow Aerospace, a private company which partnered with the Defense Intelligence Agency in an ambitious (but secret) study of the UFO enigma. In this candida conversation with Jeremy and George, Gold expressed optimism about the future of both space exploration and the potential of public-private partnerships in seeking transparency and genuine understanding of UFO-related questions.
