1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:12,320
From the unexplained to the mundane, come join us on a journey to the fringe.

2
00:00:12,320 --> 00:00:17,200
Hello and welcome to Journey to the Fringe, reminding you, if multiverse theory is correct,

3
00:00:17,200 --> 00:00:22,000
there is a universe where Bill Moore became famous instead of Bill Nye, the science guy.

4
00:00:22,000 --> 00:00:24,420
And that universe received Bill Moore the science bore.

5
00:00:24,420 --> 00:00:28,120
And there's also another universe where they went with the even spicier rhyme.

6
00:00:28,120 --> 00:00:32,680
We are your friendly reminding host, Taylor and Chelsea, today finishing off our Bill

7
00:00:32,680 --> 00:00:33,680
Moore saga.

8
00:00:33,680 --> 00:00:34,920
I at least hope.

9
00:00:34,920 --> 00:00:38,240
I know it's interesting, but I don't want to talk about Bill Moore anymore.

10
00:00:38,240 --> 00:00:42,720
He's just not a good person.

11
00:00:42,720 --> 00:00:46,760
And no matter how hard I try, I'm just going to forget about him once we're done here.

12
00:00:46,760 --> 00:00:47,760
I know, right?

13
00:00:47,760 --> 00:00:52,040
Thank you for that lovely intro.

14
00:00:52,040 --> 00:00:53,040
You're welcome.

15
00:00:53,040 --> 00:00:55,920
The multiverses are just a never-ending gift that keep on giving.

16
00:00:55,920 --> 00:00:56,920
Here we are.

17
00:00:56,920 --> 00:00:58,560
The fourth, is it fourth?

18
00:00:58,560 --> 00:01:00,400
The fourth episode, somehow.

19
00:01:00,400 --> 00:01:02,080
The final round at Bill Moore.

20
00:01:02,080 --> 00:01:03,080
Unless you want another one.

21
00:01:03,080 --> 00:01:04,080
I was kidding.

22
00:01:04,080 --> 00:01:05,080
I'd never do that.

23
00:01:05,080 --> 00:01:06,720
I'm already forgetting who Bill Moore is.

24
00:01:06,720 --> 00:01:12,320
So before I forget completely, let's finish this episode and let's see what shenanigans

25
00:01:12,320 --> 00:01:14,720
old Bill gets up to on this episode.

26
00:01:14,720 --> 00:01:18,000
Pretty good for a guy who fades into the background for episodes.

27
00:01:18,000 --> 00:01:21,040
At first, to recap, of course, I always have to recap.

28
00:01:21,040 --> 00:01:25,480
So far we have covered the books that Moore had taken part in, which contributed to the

29
00:01:25,480 --> 00:01:28,000
prominent ideas surrounding UFOs.

30
00:01:28,000 --> 00:01:29,440
It's really amazing.

31
00:01:29,440 --> 00:01:34,880
All of these ideas that came out at this time that kind of shaped how we look at everything

32
00:01:34,880 --> 00:01:35,880
today.

33
00:01:35,880 --> 00:01:37,840
It's kind of crazy to think of it that way.

34
00:01:37,840 --> 00:01:39,040
We're still holding on to it.

35
00:01:39,040 --> 00:01:41,880
It's not just Reaganomics that's reshaped our world.

36
00:01:41,880 --> 00:01:42,880
Yeah.

37
00:01:42,880 --> 00:01:48,240
It's also this guy whose name we can't remember, with Richard Dodie and others.

38
00:01:48,240 --> 00:01:53,400
We've also taken a look at the disinformation surrounding the role Moore played in the Paul

39
00:01:53,400 --> 00:01:58,520
Bennewit saga, as well, we've taken a look at MJ12, which we finished up with on the

40
00:01:58,520 --> 00:01:59,520
last episode.

41
00:01:59,520 --> 00:02:04,200
But that episode kind of partially takes part in the past and in the future of this episode.

42
00:02:04,200 --> 00:02:09,520
So pretend like for this episode, you know about MJ12, but like we don't know what Bill

43
00:02:09,520 --> 00:02:11,000
Moore is up to yet.

44
00:02:11,000 --> 00:02:15,920
We think Bill Moore is like this totally legit dude who wrote those books that we really

45
00:02:15,920 --> 00:02:16,920
like.

46
00:02:16,920 --> 00:02:21,240
And he sits on the board at ARPO and he wrote the Roswell book.

47
00:02:21,240 --> 00:02:25,840
And the other one that I always forget what it's called, Philadelphia experiment.

48
00:02:25,840 --> 00:02:31,400
And Bennewit isn't even really on the radar yet, but I had to put it in the story for

49
00:02:31,400 --> 00:02:37,320
you because we're going through all his life in this artistic podcast.

50
00:02:37,320 --> 00:02:42,760
So now we're taking it back to like just a UFO enthusiast perspective on this episode.

51
00:02:42,760 --> 00:02:47,840
So basically just be happy about UFOs and the hard work Bill Moore is doing for UFOs

52
00:02:47,840 --> 00:02:48,840
right now.

53
00:02:48,840 --> 00:02:49,840
I think we got it.

54
00:02:49,840 --> 00:02:50,840
I think we're set up.

55
00:02:50,840 --> 00:02:53,560
Are you sure you could use the word hard work?

56
00:02:53,560 --> 00:02:55,600
He's doing stuff.

57
00:02:55,600 --> 00:02:57,640
The half ass nature.

58
00:02:57,640 --> 00:02:58,640
He's existing.

59
00:02:58,640 --> 00:02:59,640
Yeah, he's existing.

60
00:02:59,640 --> 00:03:02,520
As Bill Moore.

61
00:03:02,520 --> 00:03:06,760
Bill Moore is like this fucking good researcher.

62
00:03:06,760 --> 00:03:09,640
MJ12 has been swirling around.

63
00:03:09,640 --> 00:03:14,160
We know the story seems cool that these government documents have been leaked.

64
00:03:14,160 --> 00:03:18,520
We're like, wow, maybe this could be really something.

65
00:03:18,520 --> 00:03:22,680
But there's some controversy starting to swirl around with these documents that they

66
00:03:22,680 --> 00:03:24,320
might be fake.

67
00:03:24,320 --> 00:03:27,200
And some people are trying to debunk them at this time.

68
00:03:27,200 --> 00:03:32,880
And some people are even beginning to talk about more and his involvement with the MJ12

69
00:03:32,880 --> 00:03:39,440
documents to which Bill Moore immediately strikes back in the Mufon UFO Journal January

70
00:03:39,440 --> 00:03:40,640
1989.

71
00:03:40,640 --> 00:03:43,320
I was going to cut this up, but it's too good.

72
00:03:43,320 --> 00:03:45,120
And it's not actually that long.

73
00:03:45,120 --> 00:03:49,640
So I present to you without comment, at least before I read it.

74
00:03:49,640 --> 00:03:52,960
MJ12 an open letter.

75
00:03:52,960 --> 00:03:53,960
This is Bill Moore.

76
00:03:53,960 --> 00:03:57,880
This is the article to be clear.

77
00:03:57,880 --> 00:04:01,840
I had hoped that it would never be necessary for me to write a letter like this.

78
00:04:01,840 --> 00:04:07,800
However, in light of numerous allegations, rumors and accusations presently being circulated

79
00:04:07,800 --> 00:04:13,000
about me in my work, an indirect response to a vicious guilt by innuendo article on

80
00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:19,320
the MJ12 matter, which I am reliably informed is currently being prepared by CISAP, I don't

81
00:04:19,320 --> 00:04:20,320
know, CSICOP.

82
00:04:20,320 --> 00:04:25,000
That's how I pronounce it.

83
00:04:25,000 --> 00:04:30,880
Spokesman Kendrick Frazier, in close concert with Phil Klass, it seems appropriate to make

84
00:04:30,880 --> 00:04:33,560
some sort of statement, which will clear the air.

85
00:04:33,560 --> 00:04:34,680
This is me talking now.

86
00:04:34,680 --> 00:04:35,720
This is not the article.

87
00:04:35,720 --> 00:04:37,400
I love this for him.

88
00:04:37,400 --> 00:04:41,600
He's not even waiting to see what this article says about him.

89
00:04:41,600 --> 00:04:48,920
He's putting it out before the article comes out.

90
00:04:48,920 --> 00:04:52,680
This is more understanding of himself than I thought he had.

91
00:04:52,680 --> 00:04:53,680
Somebody's writing about me?

92
00:04:53,680 --> 00:04:55,680
Oh shit, it's probably bad.

93
00:04:55,680 --> 00:04:56,680
I know.

94
00:04:56,680 --> 00:04:58,200
Okay, he goes on.

95
00:04:58,200 --> 00:05:07,360
First of all, let me begin by stating for the record that I am not a forger, a hoaxer,

96
00:05:07,360 --> 00:05:13,360
a fabricator, or a counterfeiter, nor to the best of my knowledge have I ever participated

97
00:05:13,360 --> 00:05:19,840
in any illegal or un-American activity in connection with my more than eight year involvement

98
00:05:19,840 --> 00:05:22,360
with the MJ12 controversy.

99
00:05:22,360 --> 00:05:24,360
This has been going on a while.

100
00:05:24,360 --> 00:05:28,760
Furthermore, to the best of my knowledge and belief, none of my colleagues and associates

101
00:05:28,760 --> 00:05:33,360
have participated in any such activities either.

102
00:05:33,360 --> 00:05:35,360
Bullshit.

103
00:05:35,360 --> 00:05:40,160
So nobody he worked with as Forged Dog.

104
00:05:40,160 --> 00:05:42,160
No, never.

105
00:05:42,160 --> 00:05:43,160
Never, never.

106
00:05:43,160 --> 00:05:47,040
They're too ethical.

107
00:05:47,040 --> 00:05:52,480
Rumors circulating to the effect that I am some sort of government agent or disinformation

108
00:05:52,480 --> 00:05:55,360
expert are totally false.

109
00:05:55,360 --> 00:06:01,080
In spite of pronouncements made principally by John Lear and other associates with him,

110
00:06:01,080 --> 00:06:05,720
I am not on the US governments or any other governments.

111
00:06:05,720 --> 00:06:07,080
Love how he points that out.

112
00:06:07,080 --> 00:06:08,080
Payroll.

113
00:06:08,080 --> 00:06:12,560
Whether the MJ12 and associated documents are authentic and indeed whether the entire

114
00:06:12,560 --> 00:06:17,240
MJ12 story has any truth to it all remains an entirely open question.

115
00:06:17,240 --> 00:06:22,560
I and my colleagues have conducted our investigation into this matter in our own way and essentially

116
00:06:22,560 --> 00:06:24,960
outside of the UFO community at large.

117
00:06:24,960 --> 00:06:30,000
The information which we have made available concerning this process has been entirely

118
00:06:30,000 --> 00:06:32,760
in keeping with our own methods and objectives.

119
00:06:32,760 --> 00:06:35,840
What has been withheld has been withheld for good reason.

120
00:06:35,840 --> 00:06:39,840
It is no secret that many of you who read this letter have voiced strong objections

121
00:06:39,840 --> 00:06:41,560
to the way things have gone.

122
00:06:41,560 --> 00:06:45,920
Some having raised valid questions which remain unanswered have wrongly assumed that there

123
00:06:45,920 --> 00:06:51,560
are no answers and have seen fit to vent their frustrations by pointing an accusing finger.

124
00:06:51,560 --> 00:06:56,320
Others perhaps seeing the controversy surrounding MJ12 as some sort of threatened their own

125
00:06:56,320 --> 00:07:03,120
stature as self-styled UFO experts or skeptics have chosen the convenience of dismissing

126
00:07:03,120 --> 00:07:07,840
the entire matter out of hand rather than prudence of withholding judgment until all

127
00:07:07,840 --> 00:07:08,960
the facts are in.

128
00:07:08,960 --> 00:07:14,320
To individuals in both of these rushed to judgment groups, my advice is simply be calm

129
00:07:14,320 --> 00:07:15,440
and be patient.

130
00:07:15,440 --> 00:07:19,800
We have every intention of getting to the bottom of this matter and we have every intention

131
00:07:19,800 --> 00:07:23,840
of making a full and complete disclosure once this process is complete.

132
00:07:23,840 --> 00:07:28,760
Until that time, I and my colleagues are going to continue to follow our own counsel and

133
00:07:28,760 --> 00:07:33,760
do things on our own way, preferably with the support of the UFO community, but if necessary

134
00:07:33,760 --> 00:07:34,760
without it.

135
00:07:34,760 --> 00:07:37,400
I mean it's been eight years already Bill.

136
00:07:37,400 --> 00:07:38,600
It's a long process.

137
00:07:38,600 --> 00:07:44,560
I personally love, yeah we definitely cover things, not in a timely manner.

138
00:07:44,560 --> 00:07:48,200
There's not a lot of in fact recent events that we've covered on this podcast, but it

139
00:07:48,200 --> 00:07:52,960
makes for some great comments where they're like don't worry stuff will come out in the

140
00:07:52,960 --> 00:07:53,960
near future.

141
00:07:53,960 --> 00:07:55,600
Yeah and then it doesn't.

142
00:07:55,600 --> 00:07:58,400
And then we're 34 years in the future.

143
00:07:58,400 --> 00:08:01,000
Yeah, no kidding.

144
00:08:01,000 --> 00:08:02,000
He goes on.

145
00:08:02,000 --> 00:08:06,640
Once the entire story comes out is our firm conviction that all of the dark spots in this

146
00:08:06,640 --> 00:08:11,560
very strange picture puzzle will become clear and we will all have answers to many of the

147
00:08:11,560 --> 00:08:15,960
questions which now exist about the true nature of our government's involvement with the UFO

148
00:08:15,960 --> 00:08:16,960
phenomenon.

149
00:08:16,960 --> 00:08:21,320
I mean we are kind of now, I mean not really they're just saying yeah about UFOs and this

150
00:08:21,320 --> 00:08:23,200
isn't even due to Bill Moore.

151
00:08:23,200 --> 00:08:28,000
We seem to be going through the same cyclical process that happens every 20 years or so.

152
00:08:28,000 --> 00:08:29,000
It's true.

153
00:08:29,000 --> 00:08:33,400
Meanwhile it seems completely inappropriate at this time for members of the UFO community

154
00:08:33,400 --> 00:08:39,160
and skeptics alike to continue to assail my methods or to cast Asperhenchins.

155
00:08:39,160 --> 00:08:41,160
I feel like it's apprehension.

156
00:08:41,160 --> 00:08:42,160
Apprehensions.

157
00:08:42,160 --> 00:08:43,160
But yeah he's still to roll.

158
00:08:43,160 --> 00:08:44,160
He definitely wrote Asperishions.

159
00:08:44,160 --> 00:08:45,160
Asper-shins.

160
00:08:45,160 --> 00:08:46,160
Asper-shins.

161
00:08:46,160 --> 00:08:47,160
I don't know.

162
00:08:47,160 --> 00:08:48,160
Oh, okay.

163
00:08:48,160 --> 00:08:52,840
In order to be more of an integrity and honesty through grapevine, gossip and typically half-baked

164
00:08:52,840 --> 00:08:58,860
poorly researched journalism of the skeptical inquirer, equally inappropriate is the continuing

165
00:08:58,860 --> 00:09:03,960
high level of sheer speculation concerning the true identities of the two sources who

166
00:09:03,960 --> 00:09:09,380
appeared on the UFO Cover Up Live show under the codenames Falcon and Condor.

167
00:09:09,380 --> 00:09:14,360
In the eight weeks since the airing of the show, the controversy has grown to such outrageous

168
00:09:14,360 --> 00:09:20,280
proportions that to date Falcon has been reliably identified as no less than three different

169
00:09:20,280 --> 00:09:22,320
people and Condor as five.

170
00:09:22,320 --> 00:09:27,640
For obvious reasons, my position continues to be one of no comment with respect to who

171
00:09:27,640 --> 00:09:29,040
any of my sources might be.

172
00:09:29,040 --> 00:09:30,040
Let's just take a pause.

173
00:09:30,040 --> 00:09:35,000
UFO Cover Up Live was like a movie thingy which was a live special focusing on the government's

174
00:09:35,000 --> 00:09:38,200
handling of information regarding UFOs.

175
00:09:38,200 --> 00:09:42,560
The special pays particular attention to whether there has been any suppression of

176
00:09:42,560 --> 00:09:48,160
evidence supporting the existence of UFOs, included our interviews with Washington officials,

177
00:09:48,160 --> 00:09:53,440
supposedly eyewitnesses and a look at the government documents, photographs and film

178
00:09:53,440 --> 00:09:54,440
clips.

179
00:09:54,440 --> 00:10:00,920
These two people appeared on here, Falcon and Condor, and I believe their voice were

180
00:10:00,920 --> 00:10:03,280
masked and they appeared anonymous.

181
00:10:03,280 --> 00:10:08,480
Bill Moore talks about this a lot because obviously they know that they were in contact

182
00:10:08,480 --> 00:10:09,480
with Bill Moore.

183
00:10:09,480 --> 00:10:13,000
This is the first time I heard Condor come up because I know he talked to Falcon but

184
00:10:13,000 --> 00:10:14,800
he also, Doty was sparrow.

185
00:10:14,800 --> 00:10:16,440
I don't remember the term Condor.

186
00:10:16,440 --> 00:10:17,680
I don't really know.

187
00:10:17,680 --> 00:10:19,240
Falcon is Richard Doty.

188
00:10:19,240 --> 00:10:24,280
I don't know what the frick is going on with this and Bill Moore is the one that gave these

189
00:10:24,280 --> 00:10:29,280
people their names so I don't even know but I just had to address that.

190
00:10:29,280 --> 00:10:34,720
I don't even know why Bill Moore keeps talking about this so much.

191
00:10:34,720 --> 00:10:37,280
He addresses it again later I think.

192
00:10:37,280 --> 00:10:41,680
Yeah, you almost feel like it would have served him better to ask pretty much everybody these

193
00:10:41,680 --> 00:10:43,840
days does with their controversial views.

194
00:10:43,840 --> 00:10:49,200
Just ignore people or just label it mainstream media and continue on with what she wants.

195
00:10:49,200 --> 00:10:51,800
Yeah, and I didn't watch the UFO special.

196
00:10:51,800 --> 00:10:55,040
I probably should have because it comes up a couple of times but I just didn't have

197
00:10:55,040 --> 00:10:56,040
the time.

198
00:10:56,040 --> 00:10:59,600
I wonder if they don't say something about Bill Moore or something like that but this

199
00:10:59,600 --> 00:11:03,240
is all speculation so here I am talking about that.

200
00:11:03,240 --> 00:11:05,400
Let's get on with the article, shall we?

201
00:11:05,400 --> 00:11:12,040
Deep, the identity of any or all of the 10 inside contacts I and my colleagues have developed

202
00:11:12,040 --> 00:11:16,960
is ultimately a far less importance than the fact that to date four of them have agreed

203
00:11:16,960 --> 00:11:19,600
to tell their story before members of Congress.

204
00:11:19,600 --> 00:11:24,680
As of this writing, commitments are currently being sought from the others and negotiations

205
00:11:24,680 --> 00:11:29,640
are underway with two members of Congress who have expressed interest in the matter.

206
00:11:29,640 --> 00:11:34,600
If we are successful in these efforts then the entire matter of the credibility of sources

207
00:11:34,600 --> 00:11:39,080
and the authenticity of documents will have been placed in a form entirely out of our

208
00:11:39,080 --> 00:11:46,360
hands and the questions of Bill Moore's or Jamie Chanderra's or Stan Friedman's motives,

209
00:11:46,360 --> 00:11:49,280
methods and credibility will no longer be an issue.

210
00:11:49,280 --> 00:11:54,520
It is towards such an end that we actively seek the unity and support of the entire UFO

211
00:11:54,520 --> 00:11:55,520
community.

212
00:11:55,520 --> 00:12:01,280
At the Washington DC Mufon UFO Supposium of June of 1987 when we first brought the essence

213
00:12:01,280 --> 00:12:05,680
of this matter to the attention of the UFO community and the public, I asked for assistance

214
00:12:05,680 --> 00:12:10,000
and support from anyone interested in helping us get to the bottom of it.

215
00:12:10,000 --> 00:12:12,600
Some of you joined that effort, most did not.

216
00:12:12,600 --> 00:12:18,840
Many of you remained properly skeptical and in so doing put the lie to oft repeated charges

217
00:12:18,840 --> 00:12:25,480
of a few hardline UFO bashers that most ufologists are much too gullible or credulous for their

218
00:12:25,480 --> 00:12:26,640
own good.

219
00:12:26,640 --> 00:12:31,320
Others who disagreed with our way of doing things and apparently saw us as some sort of

220
00:12:31,320 --> 00:12:36,080
threat to the well-being of ufology in general and themselves in particular saw it fit to

221
00:12:36,080 --> 00:12:39,320
throw as many rocks in our direction as they possibly could.

222
00:12:39,320 --> 00:12:43,440
It is now time to put those emotions aside and pull together in an effort to bring this

223
00:12:43,440 --> 00:12:45,000
matter to a conclusion.

224
00:12:45,000 --> 00:12:51,360
As Jerry Clark noted in an international UFO reporter editorial over a year ago, the MJ-12

225
00:12:51,360 --> 00:12:57,160
affair, unlike most other aspects of ufology, is one where it is possible to obtain answers,

226
00:12:57,160 --> 00:12:58,160
one way or the other.

227
00:12:58,160 --> 00:13:02,800
If this information is real and the sources providing it are bona fide, then we have a

228
00:13:02,800 --> 00:13:04,800
major story on our hands.

229
00:13:04,800 --> 00:13:10,680
If, on the other hand, it turns out to be some sort of eight year long, elaborate disinformation

230
00:13:10,680 --> 00:13:16,560
scheme or even an outright hoax, then we have an equally important story of another type.

231
00:13:16,560 --> 00:13:21,880
In either case, the truth will ultimately be made known and once that happens, ufology

232
00:13:21,880 --> 00:13:23,040
will go on.

233
00:13:23,040 --> 00:13:27,920
Petty, bickering, and emotional tirades have no place in this search for the truth and

234
00:13:27,920 --> 00:13:33,040
they are unbecoming to a field of study which is well on its way to becoming a recognized

235
00:13:33,040 --> 00:13:35,800
area of scientific and journalistic endeavor.

236
00:13:35,800 --> 00:13:40,200
We have every intention of seeing our work through to its conclusion, what your role

237
00:13:40,200 --> 00:13:43,000
will be in the process is entirely up to you.

238
00:13:43,000 --> 00:13:49,080
This letter then is intended as an olive branch from me and my associates to you, ufologists,

239
00:13:49,080 --> 00:13:51,720
skeptic, and ufo basher alike.

240
00:13:51,720 --> 00:13:56,640
Our goal like yours is to ultimately get to the bottom of this very important matter,

241
00:13:56,640 --> 00:14:01,680
it is our belief that progress towards this end will be better served by a united effort

242
00:14:01,680 --> 00:14:03,680
than by continued animosity.

243
00:14:03,680 --> 00:14:07,080
If you agree, please let me hear from you in the near future.

244
00:14:07,080 --> 00:14:12,640
End of article, ended with an editor's note, the fund for ufo research launched a successful

245
00:14:12,640 --> 00:14:19,600
drive to raise $16,000 for further research into the MJ12 controversy under a contract

246
00:14:19,600 --> 00:14:21,440
with Stan T. Freedman.

247
00:14:21,440 --> 00:14:22,600
That's the end of that.

248
00:14:22,600 --> 00:14:23,840
What do we think of that?

249
00:14:23,840 --> 00:14:27,720
I just like how time answers a lot of the questions.

250
00:14:27,720 --> 00:14:32,600
This would have been gripping in the late 80s, early 90s to see like not really know

251
00:14:32,600 --> 00:14:33,840
what's gonna come from it.

252
00:14:33,840 --> 00:14:38,800
Yeah, so I know we're supposed to pretend like we don't know what's gonna happen with

253
00:14:38,800 --> 00:14:41,360
the MJ12 documents and Bill Moore.

254
00:14:41,360 --> 00:14:46,360
I mean, you shouldn't really know what happens with Bill Moore unless for personal reasons

255
00:14:46,360 --> 00:14:47,360
you already know.

256
00:14:47,360 --> 00:14:48,360
That's fine.

257
00:14:48,360 --> 00:14:50,520
I would hope you wouldn't skip towards the end of this episode.

258
00:14:50,520 --> 00:14:52,520
Yes, in which case, hello Bill Moore.

259
00:14:52,520 --> 00:14:55,120
It's very nice to have you with the whole story.

260
00:14:55,120 --> 00:14:57,600
The only person who can remember who you are.

261
00:14:57,600 --> 00:15:03,040
But we see the same things as we did with Paul Benowitz.

262
00:15:03,040 --> 00:15:08,360
Now the Paul Benowitz stuff technically comes after this, but like I said at the beginning

263
00:15:08,360 --> 00:15:13,560
for like storytelling purposes and I went in the actual timeline of things, it comes

264
00:15:13,560 --> 00:15:16,640
after, but we see the same kind of thing.

265
00:15:16,640 --> 00:15:22,320
He's gaslighting the shit out of people who are seeing things from a different perspective

266
00:15:22,320 --> 00:15:23,960
than what he is doing.

267
00:15:23,960 --> 00:15:30,320
He's like, well, I'm doing this, but I mean, you're wrong if you are being skeptical of

268
00:15:30,320 --> 00:15:31,320
what I'm going to say.

269
00:15:31,320 --> 00:15:32,320
How dare you?

270
00:15:32,320 --> 00:15:35,360
Yeah, and he does it in a very, what's the word?

271
00:15:35,360 --> 00:15:36,360
Pretentious way.

272
00:15:36,360 --> 00:15:37,360
He thinks he's better.

273
00:15:37,360 --> 00:15:40,160
In a very pretentious way, incredibly.

274
00:15:40,160 --> 00:15:41,160
So there's that.

275
00:15:41,160 --> 00:15:45,720
And I was really happy to stumble upon that in putting this together.

276
00:15:45,720 --> 00:15:49,000
I always lose this guy speaks for himself and I love it.

277
00:15:49,000 --> 00:15:53,080
I don't think we really had anyone speak for themselves like this.

278
00:15:53,080 --> 00:15:54,080
That's not true.

279
00:15:54,080 --> 00:15:57,920
The entire first two episodes of David Wilcock are in fact from his blog.

280
00:15:57,920 --> 00:15:59,920
Yeah, that's true.

281
00:15:59,920 --> 00:16:03,120
That's another good one.

282
00:16:03,120 --> 00:16:07,600
Whenever we're letting somebody speak for themselves, you know it's a good episode.

283
00:16:07,600 --> 00:16:08,600
That's true.

284
00:16:08,600 --> 00:16:09,600
That's true.

285
00:16:09,600 --> 00:16:10,600
We're lucky.

286
00:16:10,600 --> 00:16:11,600
Okay.

287
00:16:11,600 --> 00:16:15,680
Next, we meet up with more July 1st, 1989.

288
00:16:15,680 --> 00:16:19,160
So let me just reiterate this timeline.

289
00:16:19,160 --> 00:16:22,960
This article was January 1989.

290
00:16:22,960 --> 00:16:25,800
So then we jump ahead to July 1989.

291
00:16:25,800 --> 00:16:29,040
So it's about six months after he wrote this article.

292
00:16:29,040 --> 00:16:31,560
I'm sure he's been up to stuff during this time.

293
00:16:31,560 --> 00:16:33,440
But to be honest, this is the last episode.

294
00:16:33,440 --> 00:16:36,200
I'm strapped for time, so nobody worry about how we got here.

295
00:16:36,200 --> 00:16:37,840
July 1st, 1989.

296
00:16:37,840 --> 00:16:42,640
Maura is giving a lecture, I guess, if you would like to consider it that at the Mufon

297
00:16:42,640 --> 00:16:45,240
Symposium in Las Vegas.

298
00:16:45,240 --> 00:16:50,520
Shit's getting heated now about the MJ12 documents regarding the origin and authenticity of the

299
00:16:50,520 --> 00:16:52,760
documents and his own credibility.

300
00:16:52,760 --> 00:16:58,160
I'm sure that article has come out by that time that he was striking first at.

301
00:16:58,160 --> 00:17:01,640
First strikes back again, if you could call this striking back.

302
00:17:01,640 --> 00:17:02,880
I know what you're thinking.

303
00:17:02,880 --> 00:17:05,720
He already struck back with that open letter.

304
00:17:05,720 --> 00:17:07,120
Not good enough, my friends.

305
00:17:07,120 --> 00:17:12,080
This is the Mufon Symposium speech that we all wish we had front row tickets for.

306
00:17:12,080 --> 00:17:14,080
It was like Dylan going electric.

307
00:17:14,080 --> 00:17:16,520
I hope you know that didn't go well for Dylan.

308
00:17:16,520 --> 00:17:17,520
I'm not sure.

309
00:17:17,520 --> 00:17:19,440
I'm not sure if that's lost.

310
00:17:19,440 --> 00:17:24,080
Famously always going on tour with his electric guitars nowadays.

311
00:17:24,080 --> 00:17:26,920
I'm sorry I have to send you this link just for you to.

312
00:17:26,920 --> 00:17:30,200
I just wanted there for the guy yelling Judas.

313
00:17:30,200 --> 00:17:35,600
So we're going to get that inputted right here for the episode just because I think

314
00:17:35,600 --> 00:17:37,600
it will be funny.

315
00:17:37,600 --> 00:17:39,600
Okay, let's begin.

316
00:17:39,600 --> 00:17:40,600
More.

317
00:17:40,600 --> 00:17:49,040
The keynote speaker for Saturday evening had yet to arrive at the Sands Casino Hotel

318
00:17:49,040 --> 00:17:50,280
for the conference.

319
00:17:50,280 --> 00:17:53,600
It had been previously arranged that he would stay elsewhere.

320
00:17:53,600 --> 00:17:57,080
His presentation was slated for one and a half hours.

321
00:17:57,080 --> 00:17:59,560
And this is Bill Morris keynote, right?

322
00:17:59,560 --> 00:18:01,880
Yeah, it would go on for two hours.

323
00:18:01,880 --> 00:18:04,680
There were no questions and answers to follow it well.

324
00:18:04,680 --> 00:18:09,720
There were, but he provided the Q&A's himself like nobody else could do it.

325
00:18:09,720 --> 00:18:14,240
He would exit immediately through a rear door to avoid any confrontation and there were

326
00:18:14,240 --> 00:18:19,080
outcries of derision and threatening remarks throughout the lecture which caused Mufon

327
00:18:19,080 --> 00:18:22,360
Nevada State Director John Lear to call repeatedly to order.

328
00:18:22,360 --> 00:18:24,320
The speech now lives in infamy.

329
00:18:24,320 --> 00:18:30,560
Now, before I begin, Taylor, would you be surprised if I told you that this is the exact

330
00:18:30,560 --> 00:18:36,240
speech where I got majority of the quotes, I would say 99% from her Bill Moore on Paul

331
00:18:36,240 --> 00:18:38,240
Benowitz episode?

332
00:18:38,240 --> 00:18:39,240
No way.

333
00:18:39,240 --> 00:18:40,240
Yes.

334
00:18:40,240 --> 00:18:48,680
To a group of colleagues that he could do the exact same thing to, he talks about how

335
00:18:48,680 --> 00:18:50,680
he was asking for it.

336
00:18:50,680 --> 00:18:51,680
Yeah.

337
00:18:51,680 --> 00:18:52,680
Yeah.

338
00:18:52,680 --> 00:18:53,680
Yeah.

339
00:18:53,680 --> 00:18:59,760
Yeah, actually, it tracks with everything that we've learned so far about the guy.

340
00:18:59,760 --> 00:19:04,920
I'm not going to touch on any of the Paul Benowitz stuff he talks about in this episode

341
00:19:04,920 --> 00:19:09,640
because he already spoke that for himself in the Paul Benowitz episode.

342
00:19:09,640 --> 00:19:13,360
But now let's just reflect on this all for a moment.

343
00:19:13,360 --> 00:19:17,040
Now that you've reflected about the Paul Benowitz stuff, let's talk about the speech.

344
00:19:17,040 --> 00:19:21,400
I'm going to just summarize it up for a little bit and then I'll give you some more good

345
00:19:21,400 --> 00:19:22,400
stuff.

346
00:19:22,400 --> 00:19:26,240
He gives what becomes a two hour long speech and I'm going to summarize it for you right

347
00:19:26,240 --> 00:19:27,240
now.

348
00:19:27,240 --> 00:19:28,240
I'm Bill Moore.

349
00:19:28,240 --> 00:19:32,560
If you don't know me, but you most likely do because I'm like this really good UFO

350
00:19:32,560 --> 00:19:33,560
researcher.

351
00:19:33,560 --> 00:19:35,320
Couple jokes here, couple jokes there.

352
00:19:35,320 --> 00:19:39,520
I'm pretty great, but hey, it was in bed with the government spreading this information

353
00:19:39,520 --> 00:19:42,160
and I was involved with the Paul Benowitz affair.

354
00:19:42,160 --> 00:19:46,520
My actions were totally justified because the government is up to something.

355
00:19:46,520 --> 00:19:48,000
Benowitz, he was crazy.

356
00:19:48,000 --> 00:19:49,000
He deserved it.

357
00:19:49,000 --> 00:19:53,720
I was there to work behind the government's back because they were hiding something and

358
00:19:53,720 --> 00:19:59,000
I'm such a good researcher and who better to find out what they're hiding than me.

359
00:19:59,000 --> 00:20:05,880
There's a couple other things I leaked, but didn't actually leak.

360
00:20:05,880 --> 00:20:09,080
There was disinformation about the Aztec UFO.

361
00:20:09,080 --> 00:20:11,280
Yeah, those MJ12 documents.

362
00:20:11,280 --> 00:20:14,120
I never said one way or the other whether they're real.

363
00:20:14,120 --> 00:20:16,520
True or not, it's all about UFOs anyway.

364
00:20:16,520 --> 00:20:18,320
And I was looking for the truth.

365
00:20:18,320 --> 00:20:22,360
I'm not going to disinformation agent these days anyway and I'm a really good researcher

366
00:20:22,360 --> 00:20:24,360
and so on and so on.

367
00:20:24,360 --> 00:20:26,360
I hope you fucking die.

368
00:20:26,360 --> 00:20:27,360
Get him.

369
00:20:27,360 --> 00:20:28,360
I am.

370
00:20:28,360 --> 00:20:29,360
Lots of hot air was spilled.

371
00:20:29,360 --> 00:20:30,520
The speeches, it's so weird.

372
00:20:30,520 --> 00:20:35,920
He's a keynote speaker, yet he's still giving his complete autobiography to the audience

373
00:20:35,920 --> 00:20:40,800
if he's not there to officially join the asshole of the UFO community club.

374
00:20:40,800 --> 00:20:47,400
I include a lot of, like I said, just to reiterate a lot of it in the Paul Benowitz episode and

375
00:20:47,400 --> 00:20:53,520
there's just a lot of contradictions justifying his actions and victim blaming.

376
00:20:53,520 --> 00:20:57,520
It gives the same feels as the article I just read.

377
00:20:57,520 --> 00:21:01,160
So let's take a look a little bit closer at some of the things he says.

378
00:21:01,160 --> 00:21:06,880
He starts out, well, ladies and gentlemen, friends and enemies, associates and colleagues,

379
00:21:06,880 --> 00:21:08,880
in short, fellow euphologies.

380
00:21:08,880 --> 00:21:12,320
I had really wanted to come here tonight and kick ass.

381
00:21:12,320 --> 00:21:17,800
But fortunately for us, all wiser heads have prevailed and we are going to keep this presentation

382
00:21:17,800 --> 00:21:19,720
as professional as possible.

383
00:21:19,720 --> 00:21:24,560
I might also add that my talk is primarily directed to those of you who are members of

384
00:21:24,560 --> 00:21:26,080
the UFO community.

385
00:21:26,080 --> 00:21:31,720
That is not to suggest that those of you who are here as third parties won't find it interesting.

386
00:21:31,720 --> 00:21:36,400
It is just that you might not be able to follow some of the in-house comments that I'm going

387
00:21:36,400 --> 00:21:41,680
to make as opposed to the outhouse comments, which I shall try to avoid even though in

388
00:21:41,680 --> 00:21:44,560
some cases they might be appropriate.

389
00:21:44,560 --> 00:21:46,280
So that's how it starts out.

390
00:21:46,280 --> 00:21:47,800
This is a Mufang conference.

391
00:21:47,800 --> 00:21:48,800
What?

392
00:21:48,800 --> 00:21:49,800
Third parties don't go to those.

393
00:21:49,800 --> 00:21:50,800
Probably not.

394
00:21:50,800 --> 00:21:55,000
I just find it just adds to the pompousness of him.

395
00:21:55,000 --> 00:21:56,000
Pretentious in age, yeah.

396
00:21:56,000 --> 00:21:58,400
The pretentious as if he's so much.

397
00:21:58,400 --> 00:22:01,720
I feel like only a person now that's not.

398
00:22:01,720 --> 00:22:07,280
So far in all the assholes that we've seen, they've all had that similar quality about

399
00:22:07,280 --> 00:22:08,280
themselves.

400
00:22:08,280 --> 00:22:09,280
Have they not?

401
00:22:09,280 --> 00:22:10,280
I feel like they have.

402
00:22:10,280 --> 00:22:12,000
I'm thinking back to all of them.

403
00:22:12,000 --> 00:22:13,000
I think they do.

404
00:22:13,000 --> 00:22:14,520
Yeah, I think they do.

405
00:22:14,520 --> 00:22:15,520
You know what?

406
00:22:15,520 --> 00:22:19,760
It really depends on what you think of Bozzy Ago and whether or not he's an asshole or

407
00:22:19,760 --> 00:22:20,760
not.

408
00:22:20,760 --> 00:22:22,520
I don't take him as pretentious.

409
00:22:22,520 --> 00:22:24,760
Just a man with a presidential campaign.

410
00:22:24,760 --> 00:22:28,360
There's one I wouldn't link in with this, but I find a majority do you think they're

411
00:22:28,360 --> 00:22:30,320
better than everybody else?

412
00:22:30,320 --> 00:22:31,320
Yes.

413
00:22:31,320 --> 00:22:39,560
He really goes for it to make the people who have anything to say against him feel like

414
00:22:39,560 --> 00:22:40,560
they're wrong.

415
00:22:40,560 --> 00:22:42,240
He's not coming.

416
00:22:42,240 --> 00:22:47,680
I don't even know how to say the speech that he gives is kind of being like, I didn't really

417
00:22:47,680 --> 00:22:49,280
do anything wrong.

418
00:22:49,280 --> 00:22:54,760
And if you are going to be skeptical against me, then I mean, that's your problem.

419
00:22:54,760 --> 00:22:58,760
Like you're, you're in the wrong for that is really the feels that it gives me.

420
00:22:58,760 --> 00:22:59,760
We continue.

421
00:22:59,760 --> 00:23:04,760
I earn the respect of many of you in the audience and I expect that my reputation and credibility

422
00:23:04,760 --> 00:23:10,120
with respect to the Roswell case is at least partly responsible for my having been invited

423
00:23:10,120 --> 00:23:11,360
to speak here tonight.

424
00:23:11,360 --> 00:23:13,880
I urge you to keep that in mind.

425
00:23:13,880 --> 00:23:18,600
If you are one of those who respected my work on Roswell, also doubtful, then I ask you

426
00:23:18,600 --> 00:23:23,800
to consider that I am trying to carry on the same sort of quality investigation with respect

427
00:23:23,800 --> 00:23:26,360
to the project I am currently working on.

428
00:23:26,360 --> 00:23:27,920
It's just that the percums...

429
00:23:27,920 --> 00:23:28,920
Yeah.

430
00:23:28,920 --> 00:23:33,000
I just want to add at this point, this is nine years after he came out with the Roswell

431
00:23:33,000 --> 00:23:34,000
book.

432
00:23:34,000 --> 00:23:35,280
He came out in 1980.

433
00:23:35,280 --> 00:23:39,880
He's really not done anything substantive since then.

434
00:23:39,880 --> 00:23:41,920
Like he has to lean back on that.

435
00:23:41,920 --> 00:23:42,920
Yeah.

436
00:23:42,920 --> 00:23:48,240
He sabotaged Paul Benowitz and he was involved with him.

437
00:23:48,240 --> 00:23:52,160
I mean, yeah, he hasn't, he didn't put out any other books.

438
00:23:52,160 --> 00:23:56,360
Like he's written a few other articles here and there, mostly defending himself.

439
00:23:56,360 --> 00:23:57,360
Yeah.

440
00:23:57,360 --> 00:24:00,360
But nothing substantial.

441
00:24:00,360 --> 00:24:04,320
He's written a few presentations about MJ12, but like, yeah, nothing substantive.

442
00:24:04,320 --> 00:24:09,280
He has to go back almost a decade to say, like, remember how you guys trusted him.

443
00:24:09,280 --> 00:24:14,760
And he was probably like foaming at the mouth to like get the MJ12 documents to put a book

444
00:24:14,760 --> 00:24:16,960
out now that I think about it.

445
00:24:16,960 --> 00:24:17,960
Let's continue on.

446
00:24:17,960 --> 00:24:22,200
It's just that the circumstances are quite different and I have not been in a position

447
00:24:22,200 --> 00:24:26,120
until now to properly inform others about what I have been doing.

448
00:24:26,120 --> 00:24:30,760
This unfortunately has given rise to considerable controversy with a number of falsehoods that

449
00:24:30,760 --> 00:24:36,200
have been spread by others in the UFO community who saw it fit to jump on hasty conclusions

450
00:24:36,200 --> 00:24:39,600
inappropriately formed without benefit of all the facts.

451
00:24:39,600 --> 00:24:41,360
This is a different section.

452
00:24:41,360 --> 00:24:46,360
Others of you who have chosen to cast aspersions and throw rocks in my direction out of fear

453
00:24:46,360 --> 00:24:51,040
that I might uncover something which will upstage your own efforts will undoubtedly

454
00:24:51,040 --> 00:24:55,640
take great pains to dissect what I have to say here in an effort to find more reasons

455
00:24:55,640 --> 00:24:57,360
to question my integrity.

456
00:24:57,360 --> 00:24:58,360
No matter.

457
00:24:58,360 --> 00:24:59,360
I jump ahead again.

458
00:24:59,360 --> 00:25:02,280
I feel like he took a little bit of that from his other article.

459
00:25:02,280 --> 00:25:03,520
Yeah, it was.

460
00:25:03,520 --> 00:25:09,200
And then next thought moreover in every case where a breakthrough was achieved and progress

461
00:25:09,200 --> 00:25:14,280
was made, it is the achiever who is remembered and honored by history and not the debunker

462
00:25:14,280 --> 00:25:16,640
who said it couldn't be done.

463
00:25:16,640 --> 00:25:21,760
Bottom line here is that the UFO phenomenon is a legitimate subject for study by anyone

464
00:25:21,760 --> 00:25:24,840
in our free society who chooses to do so.

465
00:25:24,840 --> 00:25:29,360
Others who have elected to participate in such a question not be held up to derision

466
00:25:29,360 --> 00:25:31,120
and ridicule because of it.

467
00:25:31,120 --> 00:25:36,000
Those debunkers and UFO bashers who have nothing positive to contribute are advised to go and

468
00:25:36,000 --> 00:25:38,600
massage their egos somewhere else.

469
00:25:38,600 --> 00:25:45,960
In my opinion, such people have no right whatsoever to dictate to others what is fit for study

470
00:25:45,960 --> 00:25:46,960
and what is.

471
00:25:46,960 --> 00:25:50,920
Yeah, this is my ego massaging area.

472
00:25:50,920 --> 00:25:52,600
Massage tables are full.

473
00:25:52,600 --> 00:25:58,360
I build more and the only one who is free to do what I want.

474
00:25:58,360 --> 00:26:00,200
Massage tables are full.

475
00:26:00,200 --> 00:26:01,200
Yeah.

476
00:26:01,200 --> 00:26:03,600
I can't believe that.

477
00:26:03,600 --> 00:26:09,280
He's like, I'm going to do what I want and anybody who has anything negative to say can

478
00:26:09,280 --> 00:26:10,680
fuck off.

479
00:26:10,680 --> 00:26:14,200
Like straight up fuck off.

480
00:26:14,200 --> 00:26:17,520
Everyone should be believing what I say.

481
00:26:17,520 --> 00:26:22,120
Next thought, I would like to take a moment to ask each and every member of this audience

482
00:26:22,120 --> 00:26:27,560
to reach down inside yourself and come up with a true answer to a very important and

483
00:26:27,560 --> 00:26:29,480
very difficult question.

484
00:26:29,480 --> 00:26:32,120
I thought he was going to pull an Oprah.

485
00:26:32,120 --> 00:26:33,120
Reach down.

486
00:26:33,120 --> 00:26:34,120
Under your chair.

487
00:26:34,120 --> 00:26:35,440
Under your chair.

488
00:26:35,440 --> 00:26:37,680
I don't even know what Bill Moore would give.

489
00:26:37,680 --> 00:26:38,680
Probably nothing.

490
00:26:38,680 --> 00:26:39,680
I don't think he's very rich.

491
00:26:39,680 --> 00:26:42,960
There is an empty envelope.

492
00:26:42,960 --> 00:26:46,560
What you say publicly has no meaning in this process.

493
00:26:46,560 --> 00:26:50,520
It is what you know inside yourself to be the truth that matters.

494
00:26:50,520 --> 00:26:55,040
I want you to ask yourself why you were involved with the UFO phenomenon.

495
00:26:55,040 --> 00:27:01,360
You truly desire answers no matter what those answers may be and no matter how much those

496
00:27:01,360 --> 00:27:07,520
answers may be at variance with what you presently believe about UFOs or are you one

497
00:27:07,520 --> 00:27:10,520
of those people who thrives on continuing mystery?

498
00:27:10,520 --> 00:27:16,800
It was very position in the field of ufology requires that the mystery of UFOs be perpetuated

499
00:27:16,800 --> 00:27:21,640
rather than solved so that you can continue in your self-styled role of importance and

500
00:27:21,640 --> 00:27:22,640
leadership.

501
00:27:22,640 --> 00:27:24,360
I don't know Bill Moore.

502
00:27:24,360 --> 00:27:28,280
Did he seriously just say the most objective truth?

503
00:27:28,280 --> 00:27:29,280
Yes.

504
00:27:29,280 --> 00:27:35,960
That's the reason we're all here to find a truth that is only true to us deep down inside.

505
00:27:35,960 --> 00:27:36,960
Yes.

506
00:27:36,960 --> 00:27:37,960
Yes.

507
00:27:37,960 --> 00:27:41,200
Not actually true.

508
00:27:41,200 --> 00:27:46,640
As for myself, I made a decision a number of years ago as a result of having suddenly

509
00:27:46,640 --> 00:27:51,880
found myself face to face with an opportunity to learn more about what our government knows

510
00:27:51,880 --> 00:27:53,080
about UFOs.

511
00:27:53,080 --> 00:27:58,580
I believe then and I continue to believe now that it is possible to uncover answers by

512
00:27:58,580 --> 00:28:02,760
searching carefully and completely for them in the right places.

513
00:28:02,760 --> 00:28:08,560
Finding those answers and thus ending my so-called career as a ufologist poses no problems at

514
00:28:08,560 --> 00:28:13,840
all for me.

515
00:28:13,840 --> 00:28:17,960
As a writer, I am interested in a variety of subjects.

516
00:28:17,960 --> 00:28:20,120
Many of them non-UFO related.

517
00:28:20,120 --> 00:28:24,280
Should I go as far as I feel I can with the UFO question?

518
00:28:24,280 --> 00:28:29,280
I have plenty of other fish to fry, many of which are just as interesting and every bit

519
00:28:29,280 --> 00:28:30,280
is challenging.

520
00:28:30,280 --> 00:28:36,320
The truth fellow ufologist is that I have known precisely what I am doing all along.

521
00:28:36,320 --> 00:28:39,360
This fucking guy.

522
00:28:39,360 --> 00:28:40,360
I like this.

523
00:28:40,360 --> 00:28:41,360
He gives us an analogy.

524
00:28:41,360 --> 00:28:44,440
I want to hear what you have to say especially about this Taylor.

525
00:28:44,440 --> 00:28:45,440
I'm really interested.

526
00:28:45,440 --> 00:28:46,920
Okay, he goes on.

527
00:28:46,920 --> 00:28:49,240
This is all the same thought by the way.

528
00:28:49,240 --> 00:28:53,440
Consider the strange case of Mr. Smith and Mr. Jones and the jury.

529
00:28:53,440 --> 00:28:58,760
You, the audience, are the jury and because I only have one interactive audience member

530
00:28:58,760 --> 00:29:00,920
right now, you're the jury Taylor.

531
00:29:00,920 --> 00:29:01,920
Okay.

532
00:29:01,920 --> 00:29:03,720
Mr. Smith is dead.

533
00:29:03,720 --> 00:29:06,280
Mr. Jones is being tried for the murder.

534
00:29:06,280 --> 00:29:11,520
The prosecutor stands before you and gives you these facts, here's the facts.

535
00:29:11,520 --> 00:29:16,360
On the police arrived in response to a complaint that a fight was in process.

536
00:29:16,360 --> 00:29:20,000
Mr. Smith was found lying dead on the floor of his apartment.

537
00:29:20,000 --> 00:29:24,120
The cause of death was strangulation and the body was still warm.

538
00:29:24,120 --> 00:29:28,840
Mr. Jones was found bending over the body with his hands still around the victim's

539
00:29:28,840 --> 00:29:29,840
throat.

540
00:29:29,840 --> 00:29:35,320
Neighbors and others who knew both men have testified that there was considerable animosity

541
00:29:35,320 --> 00:29:41,000
between the two of them and then on more than one occasion, Mr. Jones was threatened.

542
00:29:41,000 --> 00:29:43,400
Mr. Smith's safety and well-being.

543
00:29:43,400 --> 00:29:50,360
Obviously, Jones had gone to see Smith and a violent argument ensued during which Jones

544
00:29:50,360 --> 00:29:51,680
strangled Smith.

545
00:29:51,680 --> 00:29:56,440
Unfortunately for Jones, the police arrived before he was able to affect an escape from

546
00:29:56,440 --> 00:29:57,440
the scene.

547
00:29:57,440 --> 00:29:58,440
You're the jury.

548
00:29:58,440 --> 00:30:03,280
Is this sufficient evidence to condemn Mr. Jones for murder?

549
00:30:03,280 --> 00:30:07,480
Okay, yeah, yeah, it is.

550
00:30:07,480 --> 00:30:08,480
It is.

551
00:30:08,480 --> 00:30:11,520
Okay, that's what I thought because he did murder him.

552
00:30:11,520 --> 00:30:17,720
And he's still like literally choking, strangling a corpse as they're there.

553
00:30:17,720 --> 00:30:20,600
I myself came to the same conclusion.

554
00:30:20,600 --> 00:30:24,360
Let's hear what Moore has to say because I feel like he's going somewhere with us.

555
00:30:24,360 --> 00:30:28,000
In these cases, if that's all they're going to say and that's the entire trial, then

556
00:30:28,000 --> 00:30:30,160
yes, guilty beyond a reasonable doubt.

557
00:30:30,160 --> 00:30:31,160
Oh yeah.

558
00:30:31,160 --> 00:30:32,760
If you're going to hear the other side of it.

559
00:30:32,760 --> 00:30:33,760
Yeah.

560
00:30:33,760 --> 00:30:35,120
Then maybe I don't know, but.

561
00:30:35,120 --> 00:30:36,120
Yeah.

562
00:30:36,120 --> 00:30:37,120
Okay, I re-open and shut.

563
00:30:37,120 --> 00:30:41,120
You bring up a good point, but it does feel like you murdered him, doesn't it?

564
00:30:41,120 --> 00:30:42,120
Yeah.

565
00:30:42,120 --> 00:30:46,200
Okay, a significant minority who listened to my Smith and Jones scenario, like yes, we

566
00:30:46,200 --> 00:30:51,920
did, we're sitting right here, Bill Moore, however, hesitated before passing judgment.

567
00:30:51,920 --> 00:30:55,400
What is Mr. Jones' defense they wanted to know?

568
00:30:55,400 --> 00:30:58,440
And of course, that's really what it's all about.

569
00:30:58,440 --> 00:31:02,880
In the case of Smith and Jones, the truth is that it was Smith who invited Jones to

570
00:31:02,880 --> 00:31:08,320
his apartment with the intention of quietly doing him in and disposing of the body before

571
00:31:08,320 --> 00:31:10,080
anyone was the wiser.

572
00:31:10,080 --> 00:31:15,680
Jones, however, turned the tables on Smith and accidentally killed him in the process

573
00:31:15,680 --> 00:31:16,680
of self-defense.

574
00:31:16,680 --> 00:31:19,120
So yeah, he did murder him.

575
00:31:19,120 --> 00:31:21,000
He did in the end murder him still.

576
00:31:21,000 --> 00:31:26,600
Yeah, they're saying that it was self-defense, but he likely took it too far and he no longer

577
00:31:26,600 --> 00:31:32,880
has a right to self-defense as a defense to murder because generally it's very rare to

578
00:31:32,880 --> 00:31:35,520
say that you're allowed to take self-defense to murder.

579
00:31:35,520 --> 00:31:36,520
Yeah.

580
00:31:36,520 --> 00:31:37,520
Who end a life.

581
00:31:37,520 --> 00:31:43,080
I mean, in my opinion, whether it was self-defense or not, like he still did murder the guy.

582
00:31:43,080 --> 00:31:47,800
Well yeah, but what he's saying is if you're on the jury, then you've reacted too fast and

583
00:31:47,800 --> 00:31:50,080
technically he has a defense you haven't heard.

584
00:31:50,080 --> 00:31:51,080
Yeah.

585
00:31:51,080 --> 00:31:52,080
Like that's the whole point.

586
00:31:52,080 --> 00:31:56,640
In which case, I guess so, yeah, in which case, I mean, you're probably going to hear

587
00:31:56,640 --> 00:31:59,400
that and we're getting his story right now.

588
00:31:59,400 --> 00:32:01,600
I just like his little scenario there.

589
00:32:01,600 --> 00:32:02,600
Yeah.

590
00:32:02,600 --> 00:32:03,600
Yeah.

591
00:32:03,600 --> 00:32:07,960
Fools, for you did not realize that I have came up with this scenario specifically for

592
00:32:07,960 --> 00:32:08,960
my own purposes.

593
00:32:08,960 --> 00:32:12,080
How did you not realize this?

594
00:32:12,080 --> 00:32:14,680
You fools, for if you doubt me, you are wrong.

595
00:32:14,680 --> 00:32:17,680
If you are a fucking idiot.

596
00:32:17,680 --> 00:32:18,680
Okay.

597
00:32:18,680 --> 00:32:25,440
So he also addresses MJ 12, he says quote, the anonymous arrival of the so-called MJ

598
00:32:25,440 --> 00:32:30,720
12 documents in December of 84 was another factor we had to contend with in this increasingly

599
00:32:30,720 --> 00:32:36,240
confusing web problem of their origin and authenticity was and remains a major issue.

600
00:32:36,240 --> 00:32:40,800
And on this point, our position of neutrality has constantly been misrepresented.

601
00:32:40,800 --> 00:32:45,240
Therefore, for the record, it's important to point out here again that at no time have

602
00:32:45,240 --> 00:32:49,800
either I or any of my associates ever stated that these documents are authentic.

603
00:32:49,800 --> 00:32:53,960
Our position has consistently been that we do not know whether they are authentic, but

604
00:32:53,960 --> 00:32:59,160
that we as investigators remain unaware of any convincing evidence, which would suggest

605
00:32:59,160 --> 00:33:00,160
that they are not.

606
00:33:00,160 --> 00:33:04,720
Keep in mind at this point, he's already addressed the Paul Bennewitz stuff that I said in the

607
00:33:04,720 --> 00:33:07,680
Paul Bennewitz episode, he's going on to MJ 12 now.

608
00:33:07,680 --> 00:33:12,120
He also goes on, it seems important to note here that what you are witnessing was the

609
00:33:12,120 --> 00:33:17,400
operation of a plan to put out just enough information of this bizarre information to

610
00:33:17,400 --> 00:33:18,600
attract attention.

611
00:33:18,600 --> 00:33:24,240
This is MJ 12 and then carefully monitor who showed up with questions to ask or information

612
00:33:24,240 --> 00:33:25,240
to offer.

613
00:33:25,240 --> 00:33:29,680
Once again, I was careful to state that I remain unconvinced at the authenticity of

614
00:33:29,680 --> 00:33:30,840
the information involved.

615
00:33:30,840 --> 00:33:31,840
Yeah, right.

616
00:33:31,840 --> 00:33:33,640
Chelsea, I just need to go back to that part.

617
00:33:33,640 --> 00:33:38,560
He very specifically said that I've never said these are authentic and then just said

618
00:33:38,560 --> 00:33:39,560
they're authentic.

619
00:33:39,560 --> 00:33:40,560
Correct.

620
00:33:40,560 --> 00:33:41,560
Oh yeah, you cut one of his contradictions.

621
00:33:41,560 --> 00:33:42,560
Yeah, okay.

622
00:33:42,560 --> 00:33:43,560
It's rife with these.

623
00:33:43,560 --> 00:33:44,560
It is.

624
00:33:44,560 --> 00:33:46,560
It's definitely rife with these.

625
00:33:46,560 --> 00:33:51,200
I never said these authentic documents are authentic, you idiots.

626
00:33:51,200 --> 00:33:56,280
Angel, when he has a different point to make and a different point of the paper, he changes

627
00:33:56,280 --> 00:33:58,280
it like it's crazy.

628
00:33:58,280 --> 00:34:02,360
It's revolving for what suits him at that time.

629
00:34:02,360 --> 00:34:07,880
Also seemingly in direct relationship to our partial release of MJ 12 material two years

630
00:34:07,880 --> 00:34:13,920
ago, the flow of UFO related disinformation has escalated from a point of near insignificance

631
00:34:13,920 --> 00:34:16,480
to what has become almost a flood tide.

632
00:34:16,480 --> 00:34:20,880
Indeed, many of you in the audience came here tonight looking for answers to questions

633
00:34:20,880 --> 00:34:23,080
related directly to that problem.

634
00:34:23,080 --> 00:34:27,800
As I have taken great pains to point out, the current crop of disinformation is really

635
00:34:27,800 --> 00:34:28,800
nothing new.

636
00:34:28,800 --> 00:34:32,640
So it fills up the hook because everyone's doing it as nothing new.

637
00:34:32,640 --> 00:34:36,400
It's just that a different crop of people are spreading it this time around.

638
00:34:36,400 --> 00:34:41,000
I expect that those responsible, not the rumor mongers themselves, but the ones who

639
00:34:41,000 --> 00:34:45,440
are feeding them thought it would work just as well this time as it did last.

640
00:34:45,440 --> 00:34:49,920
The one thing I'm sure they didn't count on is that I would tell my story and thus

641
00:34:49,920 --> 00:34:52,440
become the fly in the ointment.

642
00:34:52,440 --> 00:34:54,080
Those are some good highlights.

643
00:34:54,080 --> 00:34:57,960
A lot of them also disclosed by me and Benowitz.

644
00:34:57,960 --> 00:35:00,280
Remember that because I said it like five times now.

645
00:35:00,280 --> 00:35:06,200
To end the whole speech, he aids his own cues as to probably avoid a riot.

646
00:35:06,200 --> 00:35:07,880
Here are some of my faves.

647
00:35:07,880 --> 00:35:12,760
Question number two, am I presently involved in knowingly spreading any sort of disinformation

648
00:35:12,760 --> 00:35:13,760
about UFOs?

649
00:35:13,760 --> 00:35:14,880
Answer, no.

650
00:35:14,880 --> 00:35:20,120
The only conscious involvement I have ever had with the disinformation operation was

651
00:35:20,120 --> 00:35:23,920
that I have already outlined in connection with the Benowitz case.

652
00:35:23,920 --> 00:35:24,920
That's it.

653
00:35:24,920 --> 00:35:30,400
Question number three, am I presently or have I ever been on the payroll of any agency

654
00:35:30,400 --> 00:35:31,400
of the US government?

655
00:35:31,400 --> 00:35:32,400
Answer, no.

656
00:35:32,400 --> 00:35:34,520
He did that all for free folks.

657
00:35:34,520 --> 00:35:37,160
Yeah, without me.

658
00:35:37,160 --> 00:35:39,120
It was for pleasure purposes.

659
00:35:39,120 --> 00:35:41,160
Those are just some of the questions and answers.

660
00:35:41,160 --> 00:35:42,160
There is a handful of them.

661
00:35:42,160 --> 00:35:44,760
I don't know how many, but we got to get on with the episode.

662
00:35:44,760 --> 00:35:49,520
He then goes on to give his position on literally everything under the fucking sun.

663
00:35:49,520 --> 00:35:51,840
I'll give you a few, obviously.

664
00:35:51,840 --> 00:35:56,480
Position number five, we have been able to confirm that there is in fact a group known

665
00:35:56,480 --> 00:36:01,480
as MJ12, which operates at the White House National Security Council level.

666
00:36:01,480 --> 00:36:06,400
To the best of my knowledge, this group still uses the MJ12 designator.

667
00:36:06,400 --> 00:36:11,640
The level of security around this group is such that we have not yet succeeded in establishing

668
00:36:11,640 --> 00:36:17,400
whether or not its functions are UFO related or precisely how long it has been in existence.

669
00:36:17,400 --> 00:36:21,960
Along these same lines, none of our sources have indicated any knowledge whatsoever of

670
00:36:21,960 --> 00:36:28,720
terms such as Magi, Majesty, PL40, Plato, Garnet, or a number of other terms currently

671
00:36:28,720 --> 00:36:31,000
circulating within the UFO Great Byte.

672
00:36:31,000 --> 00:36:36,000
I feel like this also directly contradicts what he said in his speech.

673
00:36:36,000 --> 00:36:42,400
Yeah, well, it's like the documents themselves, like clearly identify when MJ12 would have

674
00:36:42,400 --> 00:36:46,200
been started, the original members, the orders to do it.

675
00:36:46,200 --> 00:36:50,120
I guess technically he's saying since these aren't authentic, this is all relied on an

676
00:36:50,120 --> 00:36:54,640
external, or sorry, not authentic, but not confirmed to be authentic.

677
00:36:54,640 --> 00:36:58,600
Therefore, he's relying on external sources that he's heard outside of those documents.

678
00:36:58,600 --> 00:36:59,600
I don't know.

679
00:36:59,600 --> 00:37:00,600
This is weird.

680
00:37:00,600 --> 00:37:02,240
I, isn't it weird?

681
00:37:02,240 --> 00:37:07,040
And like for him to give the position of I've never confirmed or denied like anything to

682
00:37:07,040 --> 00:37:08,360
do with MJ12.

683
00:37:08,360 --> 00:37:13,640
And then at the end, I do understand the separation here in that he's saying that the documents

684
00:37:13,640 --> 00:37:17,000
themselves have never been confirmed, nor have I ever said they're authentic.

685
00:37:17,000 --> 00:37:18,000
But it is.

686
00:37:18,000 --> 00:37:23,560
Anyhow, these authentic documents do tell me that MJ12 is real and MJ12 does still exist.

687
00:37:23,560 --> 00:37:25,520
And I've learned that from outside sources.

688
00:37:25,520 --> 00:37:26,520
Yeah.

689
00:37:26,520 --> 00:37:27,520
Okay.

690
00:37:27,520 --> 00:37:28,520
Fair enough.

691
00:37:28,520 --> 00:37:29,520
Bill Moore.

692
00:37:29,520 --> 00:37:32,480
The controversial MJ12 papers.

693
00:37:32,480 --> 00:37:37,000
These have now been examined by a number of question documents experts and other research

694
00:37:37,000 --> 00:37:38,960
on them is continuing as well.

695
00:37:38,960 --> 00:37:41,880
As you've just heard from my good friend, Stanton, I don't know.

696
00:37:41,880 --> 00:37:46,320
In the case of the Cutler Twining Memo found in the National Archives, I can state with

697
00:37:46,320 --> 00:37:51,240
reasonable certainty that it is an authentic document and that best evidence indicates

698
00:37:51,240 --> 00:37:56,280
that someone planted it amidst the papers in record group 341, knowing that there is

699
00:37:56,280 --> 00:37:58,480
a strong chance we would find it there.

700
00:37:58,480 --> 00:38:03,320
With respect to the so-called Eisenhower Briefing Document, there is no compelling reason to

701
00:38:03,320 --> 00:38:05,680
believe it is anything but authentic.

702
00:38:05,680 --> 00:38:09,640
On the other hand, its authenticity remains far from proved.

703
00:38:09,640 --> 00:38:15,320
So, in the final analysis, the scale remains balanced by the weight of arguments on both

704
00:38:15,320 --> 00:38:16,320
sides.

705
00:38:16,320 --> 00:38:20,640
If it's the real thing, it's going to take extraordinary evidence to convince even some

706
00:38:20,640 --> 00:38:22,080
of the more liberal skeptics.

707
00:38:22,080 --> 00:38:25,720
If it's a hoax, it's extraordinarily well done.

708
00:38:25,720 --> 00:38:30,480
In either case, there's a major story here and the controversy is far from over.

709
00:38:30,480 --> 00:38:36,760
As for the so-called Truman Executive Order of September 24, 1947, which is actually the

710
00:38:36,760 --> 00:38:42,040
final page of the portion of the Eisenhower document which we have, the analysts have

711
00:38:42,040 --> 00:38:43,840
come up with mixed results.

712
00:38:43,840 --> 00:38:45,360
I'm not yet disproved.

713
00:38:45,360 --> 00:38:47,720
This document presents the weakest case of the three.

714
00:38:47,720 --> 00:38:51,280
We are not yet prepared to release a final report on this matter.

715
00:38:51,280 --> 00:38:55,240
Before leaving it, however, I would like to at least comment on what has emerged as the

716
00:38:55,240 --> 00:38:59,120
most controversial aspect of the MJ-12 document affair.

717
00:38:59,120 --> 00:39:00,400
That of the date format.

718
00:39:00,400 --> 00:39:03,400
There are a couple of points I would like to make.

719
00:39:03,400 --> 00:39:07,880
Similarities between stylistic characteristics of the documents and my own writings are important

720
00:39:07,880 --> 00:39:11,120
and are not dissimilarities equally important.

721
00:39:11,120 --> 00:39:14,360
There are some, you know, even in the way the dates are written.

722
00:39:14,360 --> 00:39:19,760
Why do those who go to such pains to point out similarities not go to equal pains to

723
00:39:19,760 --> 00:39:21,880
point out dissimilarities?

724
00:39:21,880 --> 00:39:23,800
Could it, I wonder, be prejudice?

725
00:39:23,800 --> 00:39:26,720
Or does the word incompetence better describe it?

726
00:39:26,720 --> 00:39:31,400
We are by no means convinced that the date format is as critical an issue as others would

727
00:39:31,400 --> 00:39:32,400
make it out to be.

728
00:39:32,400 --> 00:39:36,640
While the style is admittedly unusual, it is not without precedent.

729
00:39:36,640 --> 00:39:41,720
To those of you who still harbor suspicions that I created the documents and I am perpetuating

730
00:39:41,720 --> 00:39:44,560
a hoax, I say thank you for the compliment.

731
00:39:44,560 --> 00:39:49,040
To those of you who think it is more likely that I am an innocent victim of an elaborate

732
00:39:49,040 --> 00:39:54,680
hoax, I can see that this remains a possibility which has not yet been entirely ruled out.

733
00:39:54,680 --> 00:39:59,880
I do really like actually that he is admitting he could very well have fallen for disinformation

734
00:39:59,880 --> 00:40:03,160
several times in there.

735
00:40:03,160 --> 00:40:07,160
Like about how the memo was planted in the archives for him to find probably.

736
00:40:07,160 --> 00:40:09,680
That was his stance on the MJ12 document.

737
00:40:09,680 --> 00:40:10,680
That's why I put it in there.

738
00:40:10,680 --> 00:40:14,320
At the time of the speech, that was his stance on the MJ12 documents.

739
00:40:14,320 --> 00:40:16,120
We do know how that ends.

740
00:40:16,120 --> 00:40:19,720
In the last episode.

741
00:40:19,720 --> 00:40:24,000
I'm just here telling you guys a story in an artistic way.

742
00:40:24,000 --> 00:40:25,000
That's the Mufon speech.

743
00:40:25,000 --> 00:40:26,720
Let's hold our comments for after.

744
00:40:26,720 --> 00:40:30,760
So after the Mufon speech, more all but disappears from the UFO world.

745
00:40:30,760 --> 00:40:32,480
I know that's a surprise.

746
00:40:32,480 --> 00:40:35,600
Aside from an interview he wrote some articles.

747
00:40:35,600 --> 00:40:39,160
This whole speech was laid out in a Mufon UFO journal.

748
00:40:39,160 --> 00:40:41,640
I was able to take some stuff out of there.

749
00:40:41,640 --> 00:40:43,560
Weird it ended for him.

750
00:40:43,560 --> 00:40:47,120
However, Dodie is still somehow going real strong.

751
00:40:47,120 --> 00:40:49,640
Even what we know about Dodie.

752
00:40:49,640 --> 00:40:52,480
So it is odd that it ended for him here.

753
00:40:52,480 --> 00:40:53,480
Maybe it's.

754
00:40:53,480 --> 00:40:54,480
No, Dodie.

755
00:40:54,480 --> 00:40:58,360
Like I saw him in like interviews on major news networks this year.

756
00:40:58,360 --> 00:40:59,360
Like 2023.

757
00:40:59,360 --> 00:41:00,360
Yeah.

758
00:41:00,360 --> 00:41:01,360
Through to everything going on right now.

759
00:41:01,360 --> 00:41:04,280
I was just going to say what was that in regards to Taylor?

760
00:41:04,280 --> 00:41:08,240
Yeah, it was the David Grusk congressional statements.

761
00:41:08,240 --> 00:41:09,240
Weird.

762
00:41:09,240 --> 00:41:10,240
Yeah.

763
00:41:10,240 --> 00:41:11,240
Yeah.

764
00:41:11,240 --> 00:41:14,840
We might cover that in about 30 years or so.

765
00:41:14,840 --> 00:41:15,840
Yeah.

766
00:41:15,840 --> 00:41:16,840
Yeah.

767
00:41:16,840 --> 00:41:19,240
Give us some time to see how it settles.

768
00:41:19,240 --> 00:41:24,440
The few interviews he does after the speech not only says he's still a controlled informant

769
00:41:24,440 --> 00:41:28,440
1992 UFO volume seven.

770
00:41:28,440 --> 00:41:32,400
Number one, he also goes on to throw other people under the bus.

771
00:41:32,400 --> 00:41:38,400
Moore insisted that there were other ufologists engaged in the same game spreading bogus concepts

772
00:41:38,400 --> 00:41:41,760
that came to be tenants of ufology.

773
00:41:41,760 --> 00:41:45,160
What could he possibly mean by he wasn't the only one?

774
00:41:45,160 --> 00:41:47,840
Well he says that over and over in his speech for one.

775
00:41:47,840 --> 00:41:49,160
But you're in luck.

776
00:41:49,160 --> 00:41:55,200
June 11th, 1994 during an interview, Moore says there were a lot of other ufologists involved

777
00:41:55,200 --> 00:41:57,800
with this and I never discussed this before.

778
00:41:57,800 --> 00:41:59,320
He alluded to it a whole lot.

779
00:41:59,320 --> 00:42:00,960
One of those others was J.L.

780
00:42:00,960 --> 00:42:06,560
Lynn Heineck who did covert work who knew what he was doing and he was very much involved

781
00:42:06,560 --> 00:42:11,160
with one phase of disinformation operation that was used in the Benowitz affair.

782
00:42:11,160 --> 00:42:13,120
Heineck was part of this operation.

783
00:42:13,120 --> 00:42:18,320
He was under contract to the Air Force and I have a copy of that contract in case anybody

784
00:42:18,320 --> 00:42:19,880
wants to contest this.

785
00:42:19,880 --> 00:42:24,120
A general discussion of the Benowitz story followed on that interview after a commercial

786
00:42:24,120 --> 00:42:28,800
break the host asked him about alluding to other prominent ufologists involved in this

787
00:42:28,800 --> 00:42:32,640
information in Moore's 1989 Lupin speech.

788
00:42:32,640 --> 00:42:33,640
Moore says about this.

789
00:42:33,640 --> 00:42:34,640
Yes.

790
00:42:34,640 --> 00:42:38,960
There are others and one of them I just named off Mike and that will come up in focus and

791
00:42:38,960 --> 00:42:43,200
I'm sure that's going to be very controversial because that individual has written a number

792
00:42:43,200 --> 00:42:44,200
of books.

793
00:42:44,200 --> 00:42:47,880
It's about time some of these other people had to answer for some of the things they're

794
00:42:47,880 --> 00:42:48,880
doing.

795
00:42:48,880 --> 00:42:53,480
Then on August 10th, 2000 in Saucer Smear Moore said the following regarding the Benowitz

796
00:42:53,480 --> 00:42:58,960
affair in general two things which have never come to light in which might prove most interesting

797
00:42:58,960 --> 00:43:02,040
to ufology are the roles played by Dr. J.L.

798
00:43:02,040 --> 00:43:03,680
Lynn Heineck and Jacques Vili.

799
00:43:03,680 --> 00:43:09,960
I personally know that Heineck was still under contract of USAF consultant at that time and

800
00:43:09,960 --> 00:43:13,320
Vili had very close ties with the CIA and others.

801
00:43:13,320 --> 00:43:17,160
Although what his obligations to them may have been I do not know.

802
00:43:17,160 --> 00:43:21,480
Are those still hoping to uncover some hidden treasure in this whole mess?

803
00:43:21,480 --> 00:43:23,040
Here's a good place to begin.

804
00:43:23,040 --> 00:43:28,080
Heineck's hitherto unknown forte had to do with providing Benowitz a carefully crafted

805
00:43:28,080 --> 00:43:32,800
means of decoding the supposed alien transmissions he was intercepting.

806
00:43:32,800 --> 00:43:37,920
As for Vili, numerous clues pertaining to his particular specialty can be gleaned by

807
00:43:37,920 --> 00:43:42,080
a careful rereading of his book, Messengers of Deception.

808
00:43:42,080 --> 00:43:46,040
That's actually not where it ends in Greg Bishop's group project Beta.

809
00:43:46,040 --> 00:43:47,760
Moore contributed more thoughts.

810
00:43:47,760 --> 00:43:51,360
After the close of project Blue Book in 1969, J.L.

811
00:43:51,360 --> 00:43:56,960
Lynn Heineck had reportedly continued to receive $5,000 a year, one of thousands of academics

812
00:43:56,960 --> 00:44:00,280
the government keeps on payroll in case they might be needed.

813
00:44:00,280 --> 00:44:02,480
Sort of like egghead sleeper agents.

814
00:44:02,480 --> 00:44:04,760
There's more, but I think you get the idea.

815
00:44:04,760 --> 00:44:10,720
He just went on to be like, yeah, well, I'm not the only one into oblivion to the end.

816
00:44:10,720 --> 00:44:13,040
And I don't think anyone's heard from him.

817
00:44:13,040 --> 00:44:15,000
And that's when he rode off into the sunset.

818
00:44:15,000 --> 00:44:18,080
Yeah, so I'm sure he's living a happy life now.

819
00:44:18,080 --> 00:44:19,080
And that's my episode.

820
00:44:19,080 --> 00:44:20,840
How do we feel about that?

821
00:44:20,840 --> 00:44:24,280
That is actually the first time I've ever heard Jacques Vallée brought up with regards

822
00:44:24,280 --> 00:44:26,160
to disinformation campaigns.

823
00:44:26,160 --> 00:44:31,400
I don't exactly trust Bill Moore, so I will definitely have to look into this myself.

824
00:44:31,400 --> 00:44:36,960
He said that he had proof and it didn't provide any proof.

825
00:44:36,960 --> 00:44:37,960
No.

826
00:44:37,960 --> 00:44:38,960
Yes.

827
00:44:38,960 --> 00:44:44,560
And then the contract turned out to be a forgery provided to him by a disinformation.

828
00:44:44,560 --> 00:44:47,200
He found it in an archive though, so it must be real.

829
00:44:47,200 --> 00:44:50,120
Do you want to give us closing thoughts on the matter?

830
00:44:50,120 --> 00:44:57,200
Yeah, this has been more eventful than a name of Bill Moore would prescribe to such events.

831
00:44:57,200 --> 00:45:03,400
He really turned out to be the quintessential asshole of the UFO community.

832
00:45:03,400 --> 00:45:08,560
Not only is he an asshole to everyone in a large conference, but then proceeds to throw

833
00:45:08,560 --> 00:45:13,600
everybody else under the bus and then say, there's only enough room in this room for

834
00:45:13,600 --> 00:45:18,720
me, the asshole, get out of here and then proceeds to leave the room.

835
00:45:18,720 --> 00:45:24,680
Yeah, that's been a boiled steak infused frenzy that is the Bill Moore saga.

836
00:45:24,680 --> 00:45:25,680
Thank you for this, Chelsea.

837
00:45:25,680 --> 00:45:30,200
I had no idea I needed to know about this man and then I would immediately forget about

838
00:45:30,200 --> 00:45:31,200
him.

839
00:45:31,200 --> 00:45:32,200
I really think we all needed to know about it.

840
00:45:32,200 --> 00:45:33,200
Yeah.

841
00:45:33,200 --> 00:45:37,520
Because all of these, like every single episode focuses on major topics that have been shaped

842
00:45:37,520 --> 00:45:44,600
and are still talked about within the conspiracy slash UFO community today without this context.

843
00:45:44,600 --> 00:45:46,720
Exactly without any question to it at all.

844
00:45:46,720 --> 00:45:50,480
It's really quite crazy and it's all ideas that are still out there today.

845
00:45:50,480 --> 00:45:55,040
And this guy basically seems to have like quietly apologized and admitted everything

846
00:45:55,040 --> 00:45:57,720
he's worked on has been bad or a fraud.

847
00:45:57,720 --> 00:45:59,560
Not without telling us that we were wrong.

848
00:45:59,560 --> 00:46:00,560
Yeah.

849
00:46:00,560 --> 00:46:01,560
For doubting him.

850
00:46:01,560 --> 00:46:06,080
Like heavily gaslighting us to make us feel bad about it.

851
00:46:06,080 --> 00:46:07,080
It was interesting.

852
00:46:07,080 --> 00:46:09,920
It was, this was a really fun one to do.

853
00:46:09,920 --> 00:46:15,240
It provided a lot for us and I feel like in a couple episodes when we forget about them,

854
00:46:15,240 --> 00:46:19,080
we'll still remember the stories that came from Bill Moore.

855
00:46:19,080 --> 00:46:20,080
Not the name.

856
00:46:20,080 --> 00:46:23,000
No, but not the name at all.

857
00:46:23,000 --> 00:46:26,960
Well, thank you for this Chelsea and this finishes off September for us.

858
00:46:26,960 --> 00:46:29,920
So we'll be moving into our Halloween stuff from here.

859
00:46:29,920 --> 00:46:30,920
I can't wait.

860
00:46:30,920 --> 00:46:34,560
Any final thoughts that you wanted to say about Bill Moore or has four episodes been

861
00:46:34,560 --> 00:46:35,560
enough?

862
00:46:35,560 --> 00:46:37,720
Four episodes has been enough, I feel like.

863
00:46:37,720 --> 00:46:41,560
And thank you Bill Moore for providing us your point of view on it all.

864
00:46:41,560 --> 00:46:43,560
It was such an easy script.

865
00:46:43,560 --> 00:46:44,560
Yes.

866
00:46:44,560 --> 00:46:48,120
It was really quite enlightening to hear it from your point of view.

867
00:46:48,120 --> 00:46:52,520
Thank you for making us feel horribly about thinking about, well, I mean, it can only

868
00:46:52,520 --> 00:46:57,440
go so far with what you're telling us to feel about it, Bill Moore, but you tried to make

869
00:46:57,440 --> 00:47:00,400
us feel horrible about doubting you, but I don't.

870
00:47:00,400 --> 00:47:01,400
Yes.

871
00:47:01,400 --> 00:47:03,960
And with that, I have been Taylor here with Chelsea.

872
00:47:03,960 --> 00:47:05,400

873
00:47:05,400 --> 00:47:07,640
