    011 - How the National Security and Intelligence World Thinks about UAP, with Larry Hancock

    GUEST INFO Larry Hancock is a board member of the Scientific Coalition for UAP Studies, and did his formal training is in history and cultural anthropology. Larry spent a career first in the United States Air Force, and then as a strategic analyst and consultant. After his retirement, his lifelong scholarly interests and his nature as a "document geek" led him to author several books on Cold War history, international relations, and national security, as well as several edited collections of CIA, FBI and military documents. He has been a board member of the Mary Ferrell Foundation, a major online interactive history archive. His most recent works include an books on covert action and deniable warfare ("Shadow Warfare"), command and control practices ("Surprise Attack"), and the national intelligence problem of UFOs ("Unidentified"). QUESTIONS - How do people in the intelligence and security world think differently about UAP from people doing history, or empirical science? - What are the assumptions, methods, and values at the foundation of how the intel and security worlds study UAP? - If we were writing a history of the relationship between the subject of UFOs/UAP and national security, where would it start? In what direction would it be heading today? - How can we know where to draw the line between reasonable and unreasonable ideas about what various government agencies might know about the UAP subject?

    GUEST - Brannon is a professor in the department of history at the United States Naval Academy, where he teaches the history of religion, and religious history of the Middle East. He has a PhD from the University of Chicago, and has published a staggering eleven scholarly books. His most recent book is on animal sacrifice and the origins of Islam, published by Cambridge University Press. His current research, however, focuses on the role of Non Human Intelligence in human history.

    009 - Robert Powell Explains SCU's Report Analyzing Over 60,000 UAP Cases

    QUESTIONS - What makes for a reliable UAP report, and what do the reliable reports tell us about the phenomena? - What "kinds" of UAP emerge out of the data on UAP encounters? - What are the trends in the form and behavior of UAP over the past 70 years? - What does the data suggest about the origin of these strange phenomena? GUEST INFO Robert Powell is a chemist, engineer, and researcher with a BS in Chemistry and nearly three decades of experience in engineering management in the semiconductor industry. As the former Director of Research for MUFON (2007–2017), Robert established its Science Review Board and co-authored detailed reports on notable UAP cases, including the "Stephenville Lights" and the 2013 Aguadilla, Puerto Rico incident.

    007 - Journalist Garrett Graff on What the Government Is and Isn't Covering Up

    Guest Info: Bestselling historian and Pulitzer Prize finalist Garrett M. Graff has spent nearly two decades covering politics, technology, and national security, and is now recognized as one of the nation’s most prolific and wide-ranging journalists and historians. His award-winning work—including nine books on topics ranging from presidential campaigns, Watergate, 9/11, and cybersecurity, to D-Day and the U.S. government’s Cold War Doomsday plans, as well as dozens of magazine articles, essays, podcasts, and documentaries—uses history to explain the story of today, illuminating where we’ve been as a country and where we’re headed as a world. Topics: - How do you decide when to trust government claims about the UAP subject when they admit they’ve lied to the public about it in the past?  - What are the most plausible first-contact scenarios? - Is it plausible that a reverse-engineering program could be hidden within the government for decades without detection until now? - Is there a middle path between total skeptics and total believers in the UAP phenomenon?

    Guest Info: - Doug is Deputy Chief Scientist of The Acquisition Innovation Research Center. Early in his career, he created the very first aerogel used by NASA. Doug is a member of SCU. Topics: - What tech systems do we need to do a better job sorting mundane UAP from genuinely anomalous ones? - Doug walks us through the steps and tools used to definitively identify a UAP as a party balloon. - He talks about his project of purchasing and studying anomalies at a piece of land near Skinwalker Ranch. - We argue over whether studying UAP is like studying dark matter, and whether dark matter is even “real”.

    005 - Chris Mellon on UAP, National Security, & Government Accountability

    Christopher Mellon is without a doubt one of the most important figures in the modern history of this subject. As Deputy Assistant Director of National Security for Security and Information Operations, he had access to America's most sensitive secrets and intelligence, and from that vantage point he determined that the UAP subject wasn't being given the serious attention that it deserved as a national security issue. After long efforts to raise the issue within the government, he brought unclassified military footage of UAP to the New York Times, which published it on the front page in 2017, reigniting serious public interest in a subject that had received little attention for decades. We take the opportunity to ask Chris to help us understand the government's complicated and often fraught relation to the UAP subject. Topics: - Is there a disclosure scenario that doesn't inevitably lead to a global disinformation war between enemy nations? - Do governments have perverse incentives to portray UAP as enemy threats (say, in order to encourage social unity)? - How can we know when to trust governments's statements about a subject that's so historically and politically fraught? - What is the future of the UAP subject in the US and globally? - In what ways is the UAP subject more than a national security issue?

    004 - Garry Nolan on Reverse Engineering UAP, SOL Foundation, and Paradigm Shifts

    Guest Info: Garry is a professor at Stanford Medical School, where he’s an immunologist and cancer researcher. He has published over 300 research articles, holds over 50 US patents, and has founded multiple publicly-traded companies listed on the NASDAQ. He’s also co-founder, with David Grusch and Peter Skafish, of the SOL Foundation, a policy think-tank, advisory board, and fund for serious research into UAP. Topics: - What is the SOL Foundation's role in the future of UAP research? - How do you think through the landscape of theories about what UAP are? - Is reverse engineering even possible if the tech is vastly more advanced than ours? Leonardo da Vinci couldn’t reverse engineer a smartphone, after all. - Is a materialist, scientific worldview getting in the way of studying anomalous phenomena? Links: - ⁠Garry Nolan's faculty page at Stanford Medical School⁠⁠: https://med.stanford.edu/profiles/garry-nolan - Follow Garry on X⁠: https://x.com/GarryPNolan Corrections: - Michael incorrectly suggested that the journal Limina was a publication of the Scientific Coalition of UAP Studies. It is not. Limina is a publication of SCU's sister organization, The Society for UAP Studies. Check them out here: https://www.societyforuapstudies.org/

    003 - Julia Mossbridge on the connections between ESP, AI, UAP, and Love

    Guest Info: Julia Mossbridge earned her MA in neuroscience from UC San Francisco, and her PhD in Communication Sciences and Disorders from Northwestern University. In addition to being the founder and research director of the Mossbridge Institute. She is the co-founder and board chair of The Institute for Love and Time, an affiliate professor at University of San Diego in the Dept. of Physics and Biophysics, the acting CEO of LightRoot Quantum, and a member of SCU. Topics: What do psi phenomena have to do with the study of UAP? Is the study of psi empirical science? I modern empirical science really as empirical as it pretends to be? What do AI, UAP, psi, and unconditional love have to do with one another?

    Guest Info: Dr. Kevin Knuth is professor of astronomy and physics at University of Albany, a science advisor for UAPx, a former NASA scientist, and a member of SCU. Topics: How do we rigorously study something we don’t have a clear conception of, like “unidentified, anomalous phenomena”? Do UAP demand a revolution in our scientific understanding of reality itself? Kevin explains his project of simulating star systems within our galaxy, to see how many produce civilizations that get off their planet and find Earth. What’s the most plausible theory about what UAP are and where they come from?
