Intention Podcast with Byron DeLear Byron DeLear

Welcome to Intention, this is Byron DeLear. This episode has a little of everything, Ken Cox of the business podcast Clicks and Bricks interviewed me with a focus on THE holiday for American freedom, Juneteenth. We also talk about our experiences in the music industry, clean energy programs, and the need to advance equity and inclusion to strengthen the American family. So, join Ken and me as we explore the power of intention - Let's get started!

Welcome to Intention this is Byron DeLear.

I'm very excited today to bring you a very special voice – a special episode of Intention. Now, for my listeners and viewers, I know there’s been quite a bit of time between episodes, this is because of other commitments. So, I just want you to know I appreciate your loyalty and patience – I’d like to think it’s about quality, not quantity.

Well, you’re in for a treat with this one. Last February, I helped organize and was honored to speak at the St. Louis City NAACP’s Civil Rights Conference; and now, in partnership with the NAACP, we bring you a poignant and moving talk by one of the nation’s finest legal minds, Debo Adegbile.

But this speech is not lawyerly, no — this presentation is an emotional tour-de-force through the history of American Civil Rights, and if you’re listening to the audio-only podcast, please take the time to pull up our YouTube Channel and see the short film that accompanies the talk.

You’ll also hear from my dear friend Adolphus Pruitt, President of the St. Louis City NAACP, sharing the impactful and momentous history of the St. Louis Chapter of our nation’s largest and most widely recognized civil rights organization.

This episode was a labor of love and I hope you enjoy this as much as I did in pulling it together.

The war for freedom rages on.

Russia’s despicable invasion of Ukraine has become the largest land war in Europe since the ravages of World War II destroyed the continent, 77 years ago.

The world has united in support of Ukraine – pouring in weapons, and other materiel, and imposing unprecedented economic punishment for the Russian banking system, oligarchs, and has begun to isolate the country. 

More needs to be done.

Fears of nuclear conflict between NATO and Russia have driven the West’s decision not to engage directly with Russian forces. The theory is, a no-fly zone would thrust NATO aircraft and military defense systems into directly destroying Russian military assets — an escalation which could lead to the hot war spilling out over the European continent, like 77 years ago.
 
World War III.
 
Today, we speak with Igor Novikov, a former advisor to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy.
 
Igor and his wife have courageously made the decision to stay in Kyiv with their two daughters, they’ve decided to take a stand, to stay in their home.
 
He has called this war, the first “Social Media” war and also the first “three-dimensional war” — being fought on three interacting fronts — economically, militarily, and through information technology.

Igor says there will be lessons learned from this war, and that his intention is to consolidate and help spur the changes needed — a defiant Ukraine against Russian aggression has united the world in knowing now that democracy and freedom cannot be allowed to slumber, or it will be gone.

The UFO report is out. The reviews, mixed.
 
The “preliminary assessment,” delivered to Congress from the Office of the Director of National Intelligence, landed like a Rorschach test.

On one hand, skeptics felt it confirmed there was nothing to the UAP phenomena. Just a bunch of fuzzy blurs.
 
On the other, believers heralded the report as the leading edge of an official change in UFO policy — seventy years in the making.
 
One thing’s for certain, questions remain, as the report essentially states the same thing as declassified military memos from 1947 — UFOs are real, frequent, but we do not know what they are.

Might there be something more elusive, more distant about the UFO phenomenon?
 
Perhaps something less material and more psychological, even spiritual?
 
On this 11th episode of Intention, we explore these more ephemeral aspects of the UFO subject.
  
Helping us on this journey is Reverend Doctor John Denker, author of The Quantum God. John has a Ph.D in range ecology and a master’s degree from the Iliff School of Theology at Denver University. 

He has been a minister with specialty in theology and philosophy in the United Methodist Tradition and now is an observant Jew in the reform tradition.
 
Undoubtedly, following any revelation concerning the presence of non-human intelligences, many human systems would be thrown into upheaval.

What religious traditions would survive this Copernican shift? 

...and will our understanding of reality itself change if we find we’re not alone?

It’s been a steady drumbeat toward disclosure. 
For the last few episodes of Intention, we have focused on the burgeoning UFO / UAP topic. A groundbreaking story that is gaining momentum as the U.S. Government is set to release an unprecedented official report on UFOs in the near future.  
People are picking sides. 
In the past, observers of this narrative typically fall into one of two camps — skeptics and believers. 
But with recent developments, is there now a third category of ufology? One that is backed by hard evidence.  
Some believe so, some don’t. 
Today, we speak with James Croft, Leader of the St. Louis Ethical Society – one of the largest Humanist congregations in the world. 
James is an accomplished humanist and a skeptic. We briefly debate the new evidence — the Tic Tac Nimitz Encounter, the Gimbal, and Go Fast videos, and the testimony of military professionals such as Lt. Ryan Graves and Luis Elizondo. 
A graduate of Cambridge and Harvard Universities, James was raised on William Shakespeare, Carl Sagan, and Star Trek; and it is in the spirit of famed humanist Gene Roddenberry, the creator of Star Trek, that we come to this episode’s guest on the topic of UFOs and the potential interaction between human, and non-human intelligent beings.
If these recent pivotal events prove to be consequential, the human identity will be in flux for years — how will worldviews change if we find we’re not alone? 

It’s a new era for the study of UAP. The UFO topic’s popularity, and legitimacy has been bolstered by recent comments from individuals in the highest echelons of power — and they’ve all been saying the same thing.

President Obama, CIA Chiefs John Brennan, James Woolsey, Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich, Directors of National Intelligence James Clapper, John Ratcliffe — the similarity in their message appears to be the leading edge of an official change in policy on UFOs; that the objects, performing otherworldly feats of aerodynamics, moving at thousands of miles an hour, pulling hundreds if not thousands of G-forces, are real, not imagined.

With the information that we know, what does this tell us about these vehicles, about this technology?
 
Today, my guest host Thomas Morrison and I, speak with Robert Powell, a founder of SCU — the Scientific Coalition for UAP Studies. SCU is an association of scientists unpacking the data and have authored peer reviewed papers on UAP performance. Undoubtedly, there is another group of analysts, a shadow SCU- type group operating from within the Pentagon, and as more data and testimony become public, it is likely these efforts will begin to merge.
      
This month, the U.S. Government will release an unclassified report on UAP… now that tens of thousands have turned into millions of people watching, what will it be like when we finally see the truth?
