RDR to Close

 

Very sad news today, the Roswell Daily Record is in administration and will probably have to shut down. The Record is a small local newspaper that has a regular readership of just twelve thousand, but it is the most famous journal in the world for any UFO enthusiast. This is because on July the 8th 1947 it published an article with the immortal title: "RAAF Captures Flying Disk". In my book, Roswell Rising- a Novel of Disclosure, the main character is the fictional reporter who writes it, see: https://hpanwo-bb.blogspot.com/2016/08/roswell-rising-is-here.html. I have sent review copies of Rising and its two sequels to the RDR. The Record was launched in 1903 by Charles Manson (not the serial killer) and Harvey Bear. Like all print newspapers it has been forced to downsize in recent years due to modern technology and media habits, and has reduced its frequency to three paper issues a week; but it kept going until July 2026. Its current publisher, Barbara Beck, has announced that its assets are in liquidation. There is an ongoing effort hopefully to sell it, but so far this has not been successful. Source: https://nmpoliticalreport.com/2026/07/13/the-newspaper-that-broke-the-roswell-ufo-story-is-shutting-down/. This is tragic. The Roswell Daily Record, for me, is one of the greatest newspapers in the world along with The Light, Nexus magazine and Fortean Times; if only because of its one-off revolutionary coverage of the UFO phenomenon. Surely somebody out there has the will and money to buy it. How about Robert Bigelow? He has the passion and the cash. Bob, if you're reading this, snap it up, mate! I hope somebody does so that this historical periodical can be saved.

New Skinny Bob Videos

 

I've never been terribly impressed by the "Skinny Bob" videos. This viral series was uploaded in 2011 by a YouTube user known only as "Ivan0135". We know nothing about who he really is. Mike Hallowell of UFO Matrix magazine quickly spotted some continuity errors and scale discrepancies in the videos too. The channel includes four short, black-and-white clips showing a grey alien in what looks like a government facility. Other clips show multiple beings walking and running outside a country house. The narration claims that these videos are leaked film reels from Russia dating back to the 1940's, held by the famous Soviet intelligence service, the KGB. There is no soundtrack except the whirring of a projector that must have been added for effect. Source: https://www.youtube.com/@ivan0135/featured. That was all we ever found out though. The source of the films never came forward and the original media stock has never been examined. Skinny Bob was mostly forgotten after a couple of years, but some new footage has recently surfaced that has reopened the debate. This time we have three new videos uploaded to a new channel called "qtecqot"; nobody has worked out what the name means. They were uploaded over a two month period and include a lot of cryptic narration. The implication in the text and the upload titles is that the footage is brief clips of UFO close encounters from much longer reels made between 1942 and 1969. They are highly classified and published under strict anonymity. The sources are listed by name and have unusual tags such as "Tin bird", "taxi", "pace lap" and "virgin". The first and second videos include the projector soundtrack; and the first is a view out of the window of a human military aircraft. It shows what looks like a shiny, metallic ovoid UFO flying alongside. A man can be seen in the foreground wearing epaulets with insignia that looks like that of the USSR. We see a brief scene of a grey alien pointing at some strange markings on a curved metal surface and then it cuts to a similar scene to the first, except this is in colour and dated "1961". There is some Russian language text embossed in the frame; hopefully some Russian-speaker will translate these. You can hear voices on the soundtrack very faintly behind the noise of the wind and engines. There is a spinning propeller visible. The second video shows a closer shot of a silvery UFO, maybe the same one, with markings visible that resemble the ones in the first video. The object is closer to the ground and some human or humanoid figures can be seen in the background beside an aircraft hangar. The place appears to be an airport or airbase of some kind. This cuts to the scene of a fire with black smoke rising from it. There is then a beach with both humans and greys walking around, although this is a short scene in which the frame pans chaotically, as if from a handheld camera in which the operator has lost control. We then see a grey lying on the sand, unconscious or dead. This implies that the fire at the start was from an ET vehicle crash. The video ends with a scene that looks like a continuation of the original Skinny Bob collection. We see a very similar creature, walking around, lying in a bed and sitting in a chair. The third video is the longest, at 2 min 26 secs, and the most interesting in my opinion. It is entitled "interior walkthru (sic) and examination 8mm disclosure footage ufo". The first scene shows somebody shining a torch around a dark room containing objects that I cannot recognize. There are what looks like black eggs, mushrooms, a crystal ball and a dark surface with simple abstract symbols on. Together with the title I gather this is the inside of the vehicle that crashed in the previous scene, or a similar one. The final scene is the most remarkable in the series. We see a tabletop with a notepad and what looks like medical tools on it. A human has placed their hand on it and next to it is a second hand that looks similar to the human's, but obviously is not quite the same. It is thin and only has four digits, including an opposable thumb. These are much longer and thinner than on a human hand. Another pair of hands appears from the top of the frame wearing rubber gloves and places a pulse oximeter on the little finger of the alien hand. To the right of both hands is a panel of electronic buttons or switches. This film is completely silent. Source: https://www.youtube.com/@qtecqot.
 
The quality of the videos is poor by modern standards and about what you would expect from amateur cine recordings in the mid-20th century. Apart from the brief scene in the first video, there is no original soundtrack and they are all in black and white. They match the format and style of the original 2011 Skinny Bob release perfectly. What we are shown appears to be part of a visual report on a crashed UFO and the retrieval of its occupants, Roswell style; although this example appears to be in Russia. There have been numerous UFO incidents reported in Russia, by far the largest country in the world, dating back throughout its history. Most of the best evidence was gathered when it was the central state of the Soviet Union, 1917 to 1991. The collapse of that regime led to a catastrophic leak of KGB files. Its successor, the FSB, has recaptured some of them, but not all. During the 1990's most valuable items of any kind in Russia fell into the possession of gangsters; and these were then touted on the black market. For a few years, anybody could buy a top secret UFO file for the right price; and indeed some people did, see: https://hpanwo-tv.blogspot.com/2020/04/russian-roswell-fact-or-fake.html. Therefore it is not theoretically unfeasible for these new Skinny Bob videos to be real. The problem is that without more information there is no way of knowing. Modern AI image creation is now so good that the best of it is indistinguishable from real photography. It is therefore also at least equally feasible that somebody created these videos with an image generator. Photographic evidence alone simply just does not carry the same weight that it used to. There are literally hundreds of images out there in social media similar to Skinny Bob that are proven to be faked; therefore we have a terrible signal-to-noise ratio problem. If we are seeing something real now then the publisher, through no fault of their own, is the ultimate little boy who cried wolf. Unless the creator comes forward and demonstrates what they did; or the person who found this secret movie footage goes public with the corroborating evidence, forensic examination of the reels or official documents etc, then this mystery cannot be solved.

Steven Spielberg's Disclosure Day has been released onto home media. It can be purchased or rented on digital streaming platforms like Amazon Prime, Apple TV or Fandango. Alternatively you can buy the DVD; normal format, Blu-Ray or 4K UHD. This has not been released yet, but you can reserve a copy on pre-order. Source: https://www.disclosuredaymovie.com. Regular readers will guess which one I have chosen, see: https://hpanwo-voice.blogspot.com/2026/06/memory-holed-movies_0503601583.html. Hopefully they will be sent out soon. Obviously, like with all films, Disclosure Day has "proliferated". Anybody who searches for a while will find illegal websites where the film can be seen for free, usually on low quality streams with an infestation of ad-ware, in violation of the filmmaker's copyright. I ask readers not to use these and to pay the people who created this brilliant work of cinematic art for the product they made for you, fair and square. I'm still not sure how Steven Spielberg's new film will contribute to what Jeremy Corbell calls "shaping the emerging UAP narrative", but we're bound to find out soon.

Janet Coaches

 

Have you ever suddenly noticed something and than as soon as you do, you cannot un-notice it? I have; unmarked white coaches. I see them everywhere. They look just like normal coaches operated by National Express or Megabus, but they are plain white with no livery. Their windows are heavily tinted. This is not totally unprecedented; some private and charter coaches have this, but it is unusual. I call them "Janet" coaches after the mysterious white airliners that fly personnel to and from Area 51, see: https://hpanwo.blogspot.com/2022/12/area-51-portal.html. I don't know what their purpose is, but they have been seen delivering guests to migrant hotels, for example see: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=88LNN8hp8Ns. If this is their principle service then that is worrying because there are so many of them. I see them most days when I am at work or take a journey somewhere. There must be thousands of them nationwide. Even the most alarmist and pessimistic sentinel would not agree that this country contains quite that many illegal immigrants. However, I have only seen them since the migration crisis began in the late 20-teens; unless this is just an effect of awareness. As I said, I noticed them and now I see them everywhere. Were they also there beforehand, but I just didn't notice them? Either way, these furtive vehicles have some kind of purpose. They are moving people from one place to another and they are doing it all the time. Their operator, unlike most, does not wish to promote their brand to the public. Who are they carrying? Where are they going? And why? Readers, let me know if you have seen them too.

UFO Whistleblowers Freed!

 

A news story has broken that is almost unbelievable. I had to check thoroughly to make sure it was true. Fox News has reported that President Trump has directed all US federal agencies, intelligence outfits and military forces to waive non-disclosure security regulations for whistleblowers from the UAP legacy programme. This is an action by the US president that many people in the UFO community have hoped for over the last few years, but others have doubted would ever happen. It certainly taken a long time and those of us with less patience had given up. Despite that, the content of the waivers pretty much makes up for that. They specifically refer to crash-retrievals and reverse-engineering in as many words. This policy has been initiated as a result of the continuing pressure on the Trump administration from Congress following the hearings featuring David Grusch, Lue Elizondo and other UFO experts. Source: https://www.foxnews.com/politics/long-hidden-ufo-information-center-trump-push-free-former-officials. This is not the end of the story. The NDA waivers do not completely eliminate the risk whistleblowers face; and legal campaigners like Danny Sheehan are continuing the push for full legal immunity. The UFO community has responded the way you would expect. Enthusiasts like me are thrilled and the backslappers have doubled down on their cynicism. For some reason I'm finding their negativity far less tolerable right now, probably because this should be such good news for us all; in fact it's the very absence of this kind of news that the backslappers have been moaning about for years. Yet, they have simply moved the goalposts to avoid losing their pathetic poser cred. Astral Tweeted literally hours after the story dropped: "The excuses are already starting. Now it's that UFO whistleblowers won't come forward because Trump issued a directive instead of an executive order." Patrick from Vetted ReTweeted him with the quote: "Surprise surprise." Source: https://x.com/VettedPodcast/status/2079858187411263931. There is literally no pleasing the backslappers. If Tim Burchett wheeled an alien body into a press conference they would find something to whinge about. I don't think either Astral or Patrick have any training in law; if they did then maybe they would understand that eighty years of multilayered suppression cannot be undone in a couple of hours with a single new story. Saying so is not an "excuse". I wish these backslappers would get out of their own arses! Trump has not even put it on Truth Social yet which is where he usually makes new announcements. I don't know exactly where this new breakthrough will lead, but I'm watching it like a hawk. No doubt I'll be posting updates soon.

Burnham Scraps Digital ID

 

Thank goodness! Our new prime minister has shown himself to be a great moral and conscientious leader on his very first day in office! He has announced he is scrapping Starmer's flagship digital ID scheme. I was totally opposed to this Big Brother plan. How wonderful it is that Britain finally has a prime minister we can respect and admire. He's a true patriot and freedom fighter, just like Trump and Boris were originally, but Andy Burnham will not be corrupted like they were. He will remain true to his noble cause. Source: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c5y08z25q8eo.
Er... no! I'm afraid not. I do not really think for one moment that our new fearful non-leader, the Tweedle-dee to Starmer's Tweedle-dum, is doing this out of the goodness of his heart or his love for freedom. Burnham's appointment is simply the excuse to cancel a legislative drive to introduce a database state that was unworkable and grinding to a halt, as I explain in the background links below. In this week's Third Rail Radio show I assess Burnham's new government in more detail, see: https://hpanwo-radio.blogspot.com/2026/07/third-rail-radio-programme-247.html. The fast-tracked steamrollering of Burnham into power is simply a regrouping of the WEF/EU/Deep State's agenda to turn Britain into an island prison camp, a giant Alcatraz. He is a cardboard cut-out protégé of Tony Blair. I have no doubt at all that he has something else already arranged to replace the Digital ID bill. I am ready to resist when it comes to light, just like I did before; and so should you.

Shining a Light

 

A week ago, on Monday the 13th, I had a very distressing experience, but shortly afterwards I was given a wonderful gift. It began when I entered a post office to deposit some cash. This is one of those small post offices embedded in a grocer and attended to by the shop's staff. I approached the counter and went through the usual procedure counting out the money and putting my bank card in the machine. I handed the cash over and said "There should be £120 there." The staff member then counted it out himself and replied: "No, there's only £100." I nodded, not challenging him. Although at the same time another part of my mind was yelling at me that he was plainly holding six £20 notes in his hands. As soon as I got out of the shop it hit me like an earthquake. The cashier had just paid in £100 when I gave him £120. He obviously thought he would try and see if he could fool me into being conned. He no doubt slipped one of the £20 notes into his pocket afterwards before putting the rest in the till. A series of horrible emotions ran through my head. Firstly, anger at him for his theft. Secondly, frustration at knowing that the moment I completed the transaction there is probably no way to correct it (although I have written to the Post Office to try). I also felt rage at myself. Why did I let it happen? Why was I not on my guard? This is not the first time I've been short-changed like this, far from it. In fact the number of times I've been ripped off in various ways are too numerous to list. A client still owes me £50 for a pub clean I did last year. A nightclub doorman once tricked me into paying double the entrance fee by telling me my friend had already gone in and not paid. I could go on for pages and pages. Despite all this, I still generally deal with strangers in good faith. This is the dark side of my genial nature, my "pathological bonhomie", my extraversion, my cooperative instinct. The cashier had exploited these; he had taken advantage of my personality. He is somebody who has served me numerous times and so has probably assessed me as a pushover; and is he wrong? The way I always smile and thank him, wish him a pleasant day... which I obviously will never do again. After a few minutes my anger turned to sadness. I know that I live in a society in which I will be considered the bad guy in this situation, not him. I will be chided for being so vulnerable and naive, for allowing myself to be conned; in fact I know some of you readers are thinking that right now. Those same people would probably not criticise the cashier if they ever met him; they might even congratulate him for a job well done. After all it's a "dog-eat-dog world!" isn't it? "Law of the jungle!" "Survival of the fittest!" See here for details: https://hpanwo-tv.blogspot.com/2025/09/bullies-reply-to-stefan-molyneux.html and: https://hpanwo-tv.blogspot.com/2020/02/humiliation-reply-to-stefan-molyneux.html. My sadness was then topped up with a terrible sense of isolation and loneliness. The violation I had just experienced in the form of barefaced theft reminded me of how different I am to most people. I would never do such a thing to anybody else; but this doesn't make me more valuable a person in my society, it makes me more worthless. I was reminded of other betrayals I had suffered; not financial this time, but personal, for example see: https://hpanwo-voice.blogspot.com/2023/10/am-i-gate-child.html. Alienation swept over me. I was walking down a familiar street, but it suddenly felt totally foreign. I felt like I was lost, like a man in a lifeboat in a rough sea. What followed next was something I very rarely feel and hope I never feel again: despair. Maybe the nihilists are right, I thought. Maybe I've been kidding myself all these years that life has any meaning. I always believed there was some kind of non-physical intelligence around who knew who I was and is concerned for my welfare. I now found myself doubting that. Maybe nobody is out there who is on my side. I am completely alone. I am doomed to be a helpless plaything of indifferent fate and the human malevolence, that only I am so stupidly sentimental enough not to practice myself, for the rest of my pointless existence.
 
I sighed and continued walking, heading for work to do my usual jobs, but at that moment I felt I was really now just a robot, acting out a program. I reached into my pocket and pulled out my mobile phone; and, lo and behold, the torch was on! That was strange; I hardly ever use the torch and when I do, I always make sure I switch it off afterwards. It has never turned on by itself before. I stopped walking and gasped. Was this some kind of answer to my subconscious prayer, my silent cry for help? Was somebody up there shining a light on me? I didn't allow myself to continue that train of thought straight away; I had work to do and so had to remain practical for the day. I switched off the torch, put my phone away and continued my walk to work. When I got home I began researching. I looked up the technical details of my mobile phone, using Google AI to help. Sometimes my phone does things I don't intend. I have occasionally suffered the very embarrassing problem of "pocket dialling". I always keep my phone screen-locked in my pocket, but it once dialled 999 by itself simply from rubbing against my leg. The emergency number can be accessed despite the screen being locked behind a passcode. Luckily the police just called me back to check I was alright and didn't punish me. An app that often goes off accidentally is the camera; this is because I have the shortcut as default on factory settings. I would need to disable it manually and have never bothered. However, there is no shortcut for the torch on my phone. A user can add one, but I never have. In fact the only way to switch on the torch is so complicated I sometimes forget and have to search for it. I have to swipe up from the display then swipe right and then press the correct button. I am careful to keep that page open while I shine it so I can turn it off easily when I'm finished. If I don't, then a temporary shortcut does automatically appear to remind me; but this is only if the torch is already on, not when it is off. I had to check my modes and routines in settings. I only have three active modes, apart from normal function: theatre, aeroplane and sleep. None of those three have the torch listed. This means there is no way in any of the workings of my phone that the torch could possibly have gone on in my pocket. I was stunned. Strangely enough, Google AI took an open mind to the possibility of psychokinesis. Had my mental turmoil somehow caused my mobile phone to trigger the torch? To be honest I had started the dialogue by asking the AI about Dean Radin, so I had prompted it a bit. Dr Dean Radin is a parapsychologist and author who researches "mind over matter" psi phenomena at the famous Institute of Noetic Sciences. He is featured in the film What the Bleep do We Know!? talking about his work, see: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RfqjyTRDj8A. He has done experiments which indicate that direct mental intent can alter the output of random number generators. Did I do something similar with my mobile phone? Possibly, if so that alone would be amazing. However, unlike Radin's system, a mobile phone is not designed to be altered by any kind of external influence; in fact it is specifically shielded against outside interference. Also, the effect Radin discovered was small compared to actually moving a hardware switch, which is necessary to turn on the torch. I did my due diligence as a researcher and eliminated "rational explanations"; so in the end I have to conclude that this is likely to be a piece of synchronicity. In the links at the bottom I give other examples. If this is synchronicity then it is the most extraordinary example I've ever experienced. It scores high on two factors. Firstly the unlikelihood, even impossibility, of the event occurring by normal means; and secondly, it happened at a moment of extreme personal significance. It was literally just a few minutes after I had left the shop and the first time I had looked at my phone following that incident. As I finished my investigation I leaned back in my chair and muttered "thank you!" Whoever, or whatever, did this for me is forever in my debt. Call it "God" or a different name, it's up to you. This is what I mean by it being a wonderful gift. If it had not happened I would have been on a downer for weeks, maybe permanently. I might have been seduced into a misanthropic and social Darwinist frame of mine myself, and decided that if I couldn't beat them I might as well join them. I could have become a thief myself; after all, why not? What does it matter? It's my victims' fault, not mine. I have been saved from that. Not that I feel total joy and delight about what was done to me. I will not be embracing the man who stole from me or blowing him kisses in the checkout queue. I am still angry and, as I said, I have written to the Post Office to complain. Actually I don't think these gifts are intended to make us appease injustice or ignore malevolent actions. However, my gift has made my torment much easier to live with. I am now £20 poorer, but I'd gladly have paid far more than £20 for this experience! This is the first time I have told anybody about what happened. I'm quite surprised at myself. Why have I not been yelling it out? I think the answer is that for me this experience is very precious and sacred, almost an intimacy between me and the universe. I felt I had to wait for the right time. It felt like the wrong time before now. I don't think I will ever forget last Monday. Its message will always be an influence on my life.

UFO Disclosure Game

 

I'm pleased to say somebody has decided to create a board game called the UFO Disclosure Game which is about what its name is. This is a tabletop knowledge trivia strategy game about historical UFO cases and how the information on them can be published. In this world of endless cyberspace entertainment I'm happy to see somebody go back to our entertainment roots. This game has good old-fashioned boards and cards. It is for three to six players and usually takes forty-five minutes to complete. It's perfect for a family evening or a group of friends having a night in. It reminds me of David Hodrien's UFO Wave, see: https://hpanwo-radio.blogspot.com/2023/04/hpanwo-show-504-podcast-dave-hodrien.html. A game is a great way of spreading serious information, like a book or film. This is why I think Disclosure Day is so groundbreaking, see background link below. The problem is the game has not yet been finished and so needs our support on Kickstarter. I'd like to ask all HPANWO readers to help out as much as they can, see: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/uapedia/ufo-disclosure-game-by-uapedia-trust-your-knowledge/.

Reed is Back!

 

Somebody has just reappeared in the UFOlogical media whom I never thought I'd see again. In 1996 Dr Jonathan Reed from Washington USA supposedly had an encounter with an alien in the woods where he was walking his dog. The dog was killed by the alien and Reed attacked the alien knocking it unconscious. He then took the stunned being home with him and made a series of videos of it. He also filmed the scene in the forest beforehand. In 2014 Reed totally disappeared off the scene shortly after appearing live in Felixstowe, Suffolk. I provided a video recording of the event for HPANWO TV, see: https://hpanwo-tv.blogspot.com/2014/11/dr-jonathan-reed-at-rendlesham-forest.html. I feel a lot of distress dealing with this subject for two reasons: firstly, it led to me experiencing some of the worst internet abuse I've ever had; and, as regular readers know, that's really saying something! Some of what people said about me bordered on criminal. I also had the video given multiple false-flags that almost cost me my channel. As a result I have privatized the YouTube upload, something I very rarely do. However, the recording is still available on all the HPANWO TV alt-tech pages. The second reason is that the video features my good friend and comrade Derek Savory who has since died, see: https://hpanwo-radio.blogspot.com/2024/04/hpanwo-show-545-podcast-derek-savory-in.html. He organized and funded Dr Reed's tour.
 
Perhaps because 2026 is the thirtieth anniversary, Dr Jonathan Reed has released a new documentary called Contact in the Woods- The Dr Jonathan Reed Story. This one hour documentary was allegedly created by anonymous filmmakers who are hiding their identity for the sake of their own security, because the government are still persecuting Reed and anybody else who helps him; however, according to its IMDB slot, the film is directed by Dr Reed himself. Google AI states that in secondary sources the producers are named as Brent and Blake Cousins, a pair of brothers who are well known characters in "UFOwood". They work closely with figures like Dr Steven Greer and Jaime Maussan. In fact Maussan is also credited in Contact in the Woods. The film does not provide much new information for anybody familiar with the case; but it presents the story with a series of new fictionalizations, including original animation. This brings the narrative to life very vividly in a way previous productions have not. Despite claims that Reed has never changed his story, in this film there are a few details that were not mentioned in previous publications, including his book Link- An Extraterrestrial Odyssey. According to the book, Reed told nobody about the alien in his freezer except his girlfriend; in the film he states that when he got back to his home in Seattle, he called his friend Gary and Gary came round and helped him capture the first footage of "Freddie" the alien. Source: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_CReSF8MOKc. A lot has changed since Reed's last engagement with the public twelve years ago. Robert Raith has died. Reed himself has visibly aged in this documentary, which you would expect considering the passage of time; however, he also does not look to be in good health. His voice has become weaker and his body is constantly trembling, as if he has a neurological problem like Parkinson's disease. His comeback has been accompanied by some interviews, like with Caspersight, see: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=POsDxJyoP1c. Many other pundits have had discussions about Reed. Not long after the incident originally happened Royce Myers, one of the first ever backslappers, published what he called an "exposure" that Dr Jonathan Reed was a fraud, see: https://www.ufowatchdog.com/jonathan_reed.htm. I did not believe Myers at first. At the time several other researchers were supporting Reed; but since then, especially after watching this new movie, I am fairly certain Reed actually did fabricate his experience. I'll probably go into more details in a future post. Obviously I'd love to be proved wrong on that!

Something strange has happened, something not altogether unwelcome. For some reason the frustrating algorithmic shackles on HPANWO Voice have mysteriously disappeared. As you can see in the illustration, which is a current screenshot from my stats log, at some time, traffic to HPANWO Voice radically increased. It has even cleared its pre-shadowbanning initial levels. This boost is confined to the Voice. I've not yet enjoyed such a blow up on HPANWO, HPANWO TV, Ben's Bookcase, HPANWO Radio or the HPWA. When exactly this cage door was opened is unclear. I just happened to look at my stats a couple of weeks ago and saw that when previously my articles were topping out at around fifty hits they were suddenly clearing a thousand within a fortnight. From the graph you can trace this increase on posts dating back to around mid-March. That doesn't mean the change happened then, only that posts after that time period are the ones benefiting. I suspect it happened more recently because I regularly look at my stats. Why has this happened? Is it necessarily a good thing? Well, this could simply be a change in Blogger's analytics system so my views are being counted more precisely than before; meaning the problem I raised in my article Fake Stats above has been solved. Then again, it could be that I've swum into the net of some tracker bots and that all my extra hits are not real people. To be honest, this makes sense because the number of comments I'm getting has not gone up in proportion to my views. I certainly have no reason to think anybody I know is helping share my online work more than they do already. Still, whatever is going on it's nothing to complain about. Thank you to every real user who takes the time to read HPANWO Voice. Much appreciated.

LHC Shutdown

 

CERN, the European Organization for Nuclear Research (Conseil Européen pour la Recherche Nucléaire), has decided to switch off the Large Hadron Collider. On the 29th of last month it powered down all the particle beams. The reason is to carry out major maintenance and an upgrade. This is called "LS3- Long Shutdown 3" and the work is scheduled to take around four years. Parts of the seventeen mile circular device will be dismantled and engineers will replace older components with new magnets and cryogenic lines. After the refit the machine will be renamed the High-Luminosity Large Hadron Collider, HiLumi LHC. With all its new capabilities the beams will be narrower and focused more tightly. This will increase the volume of particle collisions tenfold. Many people are wondering what effect this will have. Seeing as operations at the LHC have a timeline that matches perfectly the emergence of the Mandela Effect; presumably, if the LHC really is the cause of the Mandela Effect, that pattern will continue. Could it be that until the new collider is started there will be no new Mandela Effect experiences? It's interesting that examples of the Mandela Effect did not all appear at the same time. The original one in which people recall Nelson Mandela dying in jail in the '80's, which gave the phenomenon its name, was published by Fiona Broome in 2009, just a few months after the LHC started operations. Since then several hundred others have been collated, but not all at once. The original ones, Loony Tunes and Berenstain Bears etc, emerged soon after; but others, Mr Monopoly, Fruit of the Loom and KitKat, came later. I personally had never heard of the Blue Riband one until I saw this old TV advert on YouTube about three years ago, see: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rQnRgVipDTA. The comments section is full of people who remember the product as Blue Ribbon. I do too and I remember this very advert with its catchy song on TV as a child in the 1980's. Even though the video is seventeen years old, the comments are generally much more recent. New ones are popping up all the time. Is this because the people who experienced them never reported them earlier, or is it that they just appeared at that time because of something going on in the LHC? Interesting to note that when Run 2 began in 2015, with the collision power almost doubled from 7 TeV to 13 TeV, new Mandela reports skyrocketed. One of the stages of scientific inquiry is prediction; so if CERN is the cause of the Mandela Effect we should quickly see a decrease in new Mandelas until the machine is switched back on. It's worth bearing in mind that doing the Long Shutdown 3 other particle accelerators are continuing their collisions as normal; Fermilab, KEK, Brookhaven NL etc, are still smashing atoms and some are even upgrading at the same time as the LHC. Two of them are at CERN, the SPS and ISOLDE. It's as if there is some kind of global coordination at work so that in a few years these machines can come back to life and work as one for a collective enterprise. What kind? Who knows? The next four years will be revealing and I shall be doing my own study about what happens.

Will Tomorrow be Disclosure Day?

 

How many times have I written those words? I first raised this issue back in 2007; this is the first published post I can find, see: https://hpanwo.blogspot.com/2007/09/stephen-greer-article.html. Since then I've returned to it again and again, and it's become one of my favourite subjects. At the bottom is the huge portal where I've collated all my work on UFO Disclosure. I've even written three books about it. So I understand if readers groan at the title of this article; "Not again, Ben, please!" Bear with me! The reason I am bringing it up this time is because of some statements made by Mark Christopher Lee, a filmmaker who specializes in UFO documentaries. Back in February Mark made a stunning announcement, that President Trump was going to make a Disclosure speech very soon. He was given a specific date, the 8th of July. This happens to be World Disclosure Day and the seventy-ninth anniversary of the Roswell Incident. He said there would also be a revealing hearing on Mayday. He knew this because of an "insider at the White House". Mark would not name his source although there has been some suggestion that it is Bob Bigelow. Mark made this statement with so much confidence, putting his reputation on the line, that I and many others did sit up and take notice, see: https://hpanwo-voice.blogspot.com/2026/02/what-week-in-ufology.html and: https://hpanwo-radio.blogspot.com/2026/02/third-rail-radio-programme-234.html. It even reached the mainstream media. Obviously the skeptics and backslappers did not take this prediction seriously; and they were apparently vindicated when a couple of weeks later Mark published a full, unconditional retraction and apology. He said that he had made a mistake and might possibly been used to spread disinformation. He did this in a very dignified and mature way. He did not qualify his apology at all and I respected that, despite my disappointment. Source: https://open.spotify.com/episode/1EAJKbgbsBD4MkR4fsD4wL. True to form, the backslappers would not let it go and continued to dwell on the matter long after it was necessary in my view, but that's backslappers for you.
 
However, since then there has been a major development. Mark Christopher Lee has renewed his prediction for July the 8th. What's happening is that President Trump is currently in Turkey and tomorrow he is scheduled to attend a major NATO summit. This is the first time a US president has visited the country in over a decade. This is a high stakes event and Turkey's own President Erdogan will be in talks with him. Trump says he wants closer ties with Turkey to lure it away from Russian influence. However, when he takes to the stage in Ankara tomorrow he has the alien speech prepared. He may well deliver it after his main address, in a separate event at the end of the NATO proceedings. Turkey, a powerful nation on the cusp of Europe and Asia, would be a good strategic place to reveal the truth about UFO's. The fact that it is the Roswell anniversary will add pathos to the event. It also means that the PRG won't have to shift the date, see: https://hpanwo-voice.blogspot.com/2021/07/happy-world-disclosure-day-2021.html. Mark has made a new video about July the 8th 2026, see: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VWYUsf8GbiA. Will it happen? Well, Mark sounds extremely confident, and that really means something when you consider his past U-turn. If he were even the tiniest bit uncertain then he would no doubt show some caution after being bitten before. This alone gives Mark's new forecast extra validity. We shall see what happens tomorrow, but it has been in my diary for a while and I will be watching closely. Should anything significant happen I will report back immediately.

Botley Road (Non-Woo-Woo)

 

Today I have a non-woo-woo article for you, very rare for me! It's one of only about a dozen I've ever written. It concerns Botley Road in Oxford. Something I seriously suspect that many people in the city have forgotten ever existed. This major throughfare is the principle traffic connection between West Oxford and the rest of Oxford. Anybody who lives in North Hinksey, Dean Court, Chawley, Cumnor and Botley are cut off from the city by all motor transport. It has played havoc with the bus routes and a number of services that normally terminate at Gloucester Green are currently tucked into a row of overcrowded and unsheltered stops by Osney Island. For example, see here for my recent trip to Swindon: https://hpanwo-tv.blogspot.com/2026/06/bases-2026-disclosure-conference.html. To drive to the city centre from West Oxford is possible, but only via a massive detour all the way north along the ring road or south Redbridge and to Donnington Bridge. This situation has been going on for so long I had totally forgotten how and when it started. I had to look it up; April 2023. The original plan was a joint endeavour by Network Rail and Oxon and Oxford City Council to expand the railway station, build a new railway bridge and lower the road level so double-decker buses could pass underneath it. This was estimated to take "just a few months!" It has now been over three years. The worksite has been a mysterious collection of hoarding, direction signs and weird tunnels and pathways that keep shifting, depending on what part of the place is being attended to at the time. Every time I pass by there I have to start anew finding the correct route through the chaos. The problem was that the project hit unexpected obstacles that caused massive delays. This does happen occasionally, for another example see: https://hpanwo-voice.blogspot.com/2013/12/mysterious-object-in-seattle-tunnel-dig.html. I regularly joke on HPANWO TV that they must have found a crashed flying saucer, but the reality is nothing so exciting. A series of water pipes had to be diverted along with sewers; these had to be kept separate to prevent contamination. There were also gas mains and electricity cables that "had not been mapped" which means nobody knows exactly where they were. That sounds strange. Were there no records? Surely the people who installed them originally could have told them. In some cases this happened a long time ago, over a century, but it is still odd to think that nobody knew where these utilities were despite the people of Oxford using them every day. No wonder it is perfectly plausible that strange creatures might live in them, see: https://hpanwo-voice.blogspot.com/2016/10/monster-in-sewer.html. 

The contractor, with the inopportune name of "Keir" wasn't even sure if the cables were isolated and could therefore be removed safely. Strangely, the electricity company didn't know either. To work it out a number of controlled discharges were tried. All this work had to be negotiated with Thames Water and this took even more time and money. The excavation of the road was hampered by a "Victorian arch", a very old brick structure designed to protect the road from the water table. Again, there was no information available about how big this construction was and how it could be removed. The deeper dip will also require special drainage. But even the darkest night ends with the dawn and now it has been announced that Botley Road will reopen at the end of next month. It will be improved too, apparently; with proper cycle tracks and even, eventually, an extra platform at the station. The cost of the original operation was said to be £161 million but have risen to £237 million, all funded by the Department of Transport... which means we, the taxpayers. Source: https://www.oxfordmail.co.uk/news/26251483.update-network-rail-botley-road-will-reopen/. I'm glad this huge construction venture will soon be at an end. Buses can once more travel to the city centre and people can drive to and from West Oxford. This saga is testimony to the old saying: to err is human, but to screw things up completely requires a committee.

The Most Reluctant Convert

 

Ever since I began following the work of David Icke I've become fascinated by people who experience a "kundalini" or spiritual emergence crisis, see: https://hpanwo.blogspot.com/2020/08/david-icke-portal.html. For these people, the experience is often not as it is depicted by the New Age. It can be unpleasant, chaotic and disturbing; but after it has happened I've never heard anybody say they wish it hadn't. One of the most interesting people to have undergone this process is CS Lewis, mostly because he is also a prolific and articulate writer and described his feelings in great detail. He wrote about it in a book called Surprised by Joy. This has been adapted into a stage play by Max McLean called The Most Reluctant Convert, and he has now made it into a film. It stars Max in the eponymous role, something he does very well. For an American actor his accent is perfect and he really gets inside the personality of his subject. I was familiar with CS Lewis as a child because his Chronicles of Narnia series were some of my favourite books; but when I grew up I took more of an interest in the man himself. In this movie Max McLean's portrayal of Clive Staples Lewis carries out a fourth wall monologue combined with drama; and often a blend of the two. He sometimes appears as an unseen character in the flashbacks to his childhood in Northern Ireland, or at school or as a student and fellow at Oxford. Living in Oxford myself I recognized the locations; The White Hart Pub on Broad Street, Queens Lane, the University Parks and Lewis' home in Risinghurst. Lewis' background was devout Ulster Protestant, yet he lost his faith as a child when his mother died and he fought in the Great War. He was a complete atheist and didn't start to question his disbelief until he was given private tuition by a very wise teacher whom he loved, William Thompson Kirkpatrick, nicknamed "The Great Knock". I expect the character Prof. Kirk in The Lion, The Witch and the Wardrobe is inspired by him. This is one of many intrusions of his fiction into his life story that I spotted. Despite having a very detailed and comprehensive conviction that atheo-materialism was true, he started to entertain alternative ideas. He had always described the world as full of misery and cruelty, but wondered why he thought that when there was nothing to compare it to. "I can't think of a line as crooked unless I know somewhere deep down there must be a straight line somewhere." as he puts it. At Oxford he had long discussions with his friend Owen Barfield and another he called "Tollers" who was actually JRR Tolkien, a fellow author, mystic and Catholic gnostic. This raised more questions in his mind.

It was obviously a strange experience, but CS Lewis describes this upheaval almost as a chase, with God trying to catch him and him trying to run away; this explains the title of the play and film. At the same time, paradoxically, he called this new revelation "Joy", hence the title of the book. This word distinguishes it from happiness or contentment, something that emerges from inside us instead as from outside; in this way it reminds me of my thoughts about melancholy, see: https://hpanwo-hpwa.blogspot.com/2026/03/being-sad.html. At the same time as feeling joyful he was also sad. He felt that something else he valued about the universe as he saw it was being worn away. The film does not cover it and I have not read the book, but like most people in his position, at that time, he was probably not easy to get on with. He may well have fallen out with friends and found his relationship with family become very rocky. Some of his mental breakthroughs came in strangely prosaic situations. One burst of revelation came when he was riding on a bus up Headington Hill. I've done the same many times and I've never had any sudden insights. It's a very pleasant part of Oxford, an avenue of great oaks and chestnuts with parks on either side; but I don't consider it transcendental. The final change came when he was travelling with his brother Warren to visit Whipsnade Zoo in 1931. He was sitting in a motorcycle sidecar and realized he was a Christian believer. (Lewis' biographer Alister McGrath claims this journey happened the previous year, 1930, but that the author got it mixed up. This comes from the chronology of Lewis' letters and chapel records from Magdalen College Oxford. Lewis was writing in 1955, many years later.) After that he was a regular in the congregation of Holy Trinity Church in Headington Quarry for the rest of his life, a short walk from where he lived. He was buried there when he died in November 1963. Oddly enough this happened on the 22nd, the same day as the Kennedy assassination, see: https://hpanwo.blogspot.com/2023/11/jfk-portal.html; and amazingly another esoteric writer, Aldous Huxley, also passed away that day, see: https://hpanwo-voice.blogspot.com/2008/07/everyone-knows-what-happened-on.html. What an intriguing coincidence! The Most Reluctant Convert- The Untold Story of CS Lewis is short for a feature film, just an hour and a quarter, but it is very entertaining, well acted and has great production design. It can be rented or bought on the usual platforms (but of course I recommend getting the DVD if you enjoyed it, see: https://hpanwo-voice.blogspot.com/2026/06/memory-holed-movies_0503601583.html) See: https://cslewismovie.com.

Something-Gate

 

It doesn't have a name yet. Before long it will get one, a witticism related to the topic with the suffix "-gate". What I'm referring to is a new drama scandal that has just broken out in the UFO community. Everybody is currently talking about it; and no doubt people will ask me for my opinion, seeing as I've confronted similar situations several times in my own work. However, despite all the social media noise, we know very little about it on a factual level. Yesterday Kelly Chase uploaded a video entitled Starlight Sickness, Gaslighting, Consent Engineering and How I Got Lost In UFOlogy's Hall of Mirrors. Forty-eight minutes in, she raises a personal issue that she previously referred to in a Tweet and audio short back in April. What happened was that Kelly broke all contact with her colleague Jay Christopher King when one of the female followers of their Cosmosis podcast contacted Kelly to complain that during a private conversation with her co-host in which this person revealed a lot of personal information, Jay "crossed sexual boundaries". Kelly had originally endorsed Jay and his organization, The Experiencer Group, and felt guilty. She stresses the need for ethical professional conduct at all times when counselling experiencers. She also claims to have suffered a sexual assault herself and was denied justice, and as a result found this even more traumatic. She has since talked to other women in the group about Jay's "deeply distressing" and "concerning" behaviour. Source:   https://open.spotify.com/episode/2OvK9qsGTuehjeitfn2hi8 and: https://youtu.be/7cvIzMW3xdA?si=cm3vRevZ-rOWQZ6H&t=2882. Despite this assertion, there is no record at all of Jay Christopher King being arrested by the police or being held under suspicion of any criminal offence.

The response to this matter has been exactly what always happens when the culture war reaches any institution. Kelly Chase will, regrettably, receive a torrent of online abuse from the UFO community's troll element; indeed, it has already begun on the Twitter link she posted to yesterday's video. I condemn this behaviour unconditionally and will do anything I can to prevent it. At the same time, as somebody who has been on the receiving end of slanderous false allegations, I cannot and will not conform to the politically correct foundational maxim of "believe the Woman!" A number of pundits have already closed ranks behind Kelly, especially the backslappers for some reason; maybe because this issue reinforces their own dark, cynical and misanthropic vision of UFOlogy. I will comment to the extent of saying that Kelly does not strike me as a typical spiteful mutant feminist, the kind of woman who would habitually tell lies like this about a man. I've actually held her in very high esteem. I thought her UFO Rabbit Hole podcast was one of the best out there and took positive interest in her new perspective, see: https://hpanwo-voice.blogspot.com/2025/02/kellys-new-start.html. I met her at Contact in the Desert last year and had a good conversation with her, see: https://hpanwo-voice.blogspot.com/2025/08/kelly-chase-at-citd-2025.html. Either these allegations are true or they are false; and both possibilities are very disturbing. However, despite the certainty of many current commentators, nobody knows for sure. For this reason I'm going to leave the matter there until more information comes to light. I will return to the subject after that.

Memory Holed Movies

 

Sony Playstation Store is a popular retailer that millions of people use to purchase computer games, software and other kinds of media, including films and TV programmes. I have never used it myself, but I have used similar sites like Amazon, ITunes and Vimeo; but I do so reluctantly for a good reason that I'll explain. A Facebook friend has informed me that Sony Playstation Store have started deleting some of their products. In fact 551 movies and TV series are now no longer available. By no longer available I don't just mean that they are no longer for sale; I mean that they have been deleted from the platform for everybody, including people who have already rented or bought them. The titles include such classics as First Blood, Terminator 2- Judgement Day and Bridget Jones' Diary. The reason for this is that Sony PS' licence with the distributor Studio Canal has just expired and has not been renewed. The users who paid for these products are receiving no compensation at all; no refunds, no discounts, no vouchers nothing. Users who "bought" the products are being treated as if they did not actually buy them; which in a strange way, they never did. You might think this is a violation of customers' statutory rights, even theft, and it should be; but technically it isn't. You see, when you buy an online movie it's not like buying a physical product. As an analogy, if I buy an apple from a greengrocer and walk out of the shop, the shopkeeper can chase after me and snatch the apple back, but in doing so he has to give me my money back by law. However, in the case of streaming service, all you are really buying is the right to stream the product from the site indefinitely, rather than for a fixed period of time, like with Amazon's rental. That purchase time period is indefinite, but not necessarily eternal. The platform retains the legal right to terminate that access at any time unilaterally. What's more the distributor can force them to do so. Your personal user licence agreement is therefore completely non-exclusive and revocable. Read the small print next time you're given the "purchase or rent the movie" option; it's completely watertight I'm afraid. Source: https://www.playstation.com/en-gb/legal/psvideocontent/.

I know many people who do not own a DVD player and discs, paper books or even read hard copies of newspapers. They live in a bare habitat of monitors and devices that provide all their entertainment and education from remote online sources. "It's ever so convenient!" they gush. "I no longer have shelves of bulky plastic cases taking up all the room in my house." They are perfect devotees of Klaus Schwab's proclamation that "You vill own nossingk und you vill be happy." Perhaps this news from Sony PS will make them think again and realize that although those shelves might be obtrusive and make your home constrictive, they are actually very precious because they contain media in digital or print form that you have purchased in the literal sense and once it is in your hands and the money has been exchanged it is completely isolated from any interference, recall or control from the retailing body. It is totally and one hundred percent your property. They cannot take it back and they cannot alter it. In previous eras before online streaming became a thing, what Sony and Studio Canal have done would be impossible. They would just have to cope with the fact that all the people who bought their products can keep them. This is why I cherish my huge collection of books and DVD's, see: https://hpanwo-tv.blogspot.com/2017/03/dvds-on-my-shelf.html and: https://hpanwo-tv.blogspot.com/2017/03/books-on-my-shelf-part-2.html. Short of an accident or theft or me deliberately ripping them up and shoving them down the toilet etc, these items are indestructible. Remember how oppressive regimes always ban books. When those regimes fell the books were always recoverable because inevitably somebody somewhere would have a copy that the censors will have missed. Imagine if modern technology had existed in those days! No need for flaming pyres in the street, the propaganda ministry would just need to press a button. There's more though. Even things you think you own on Netflix or Kindle, even if they are not withdrawn, they can be altered remotely without your knowledge or permission. This has happened to me, see: https://hpanwo-voice.blogspot.com/2020/12/1984-removed-from-kindle.html and: https://hpanwo-voice.blogspot.com/2023/03/roald-dahl-memory-holed.html. This is extremely sinister because it gives the authorities a capability to commit censorship more terrible than at any other time in history. So, please! Get DVD's, downloads and good old-fashioned paper books! I know this is tricky with movies because some home media releases aren't even doing DVD runs anymore; but the more people who buy the DVD's the more the studios will be encouraged to invest in them. People ask me why my own books aren't on e-book outlets; well, this is your answer. If you want to read Roswell Rising and its sequels then I'm afraid it's paperback or nothing, see: https://hpanwo-bb.blogspot.com/2016/08/roswell-rising-is-here.html.

Psionics the Movie

 

Psionics- The Minds that Summon UFO's is the long-awaited debut feature film by Patrick Scott Armstrong, well-known already in the UFO community as the presenter of the Vetted YouTube channel. Patrick has been working on this project for several years and has provided behind the scenes commentaries on his channel for all that time. He has travelled long distances across the United States and interviewed many people, including me! Rather than focusing on the usual stories of congressmen, whistleblowers and hearings, which is the more conventional UFO documentary these days, Patrick addresses the phenomenon of personal contact by visiting skywatchers, contactees, experiencers and those who study the consciousness connection to UFO's and aliens. The word "psionics" is a recent popular neologism, although it can be found in limited use from 1952; but it means something that has been delved into throughout the modern UFO era. It connects to psychical research and remote viewing. John Keel was an early pioneer of this field of study and that mission has been carried forward by many people in the modern world, including Jake Barber, a military helicopter pilot who recently made an amazing announcement that he had been involved in crash-retrievals. During this mission he has had telepathic communication with the object, see: https://hpanwo-voice.blogspot.com/2025/01/egg-ufo.html. He has since founded an organization called Skywatcher that does exactly what its name says. It has been the subject of a News Nation feature. During these events, usually at night, objects appear, most often luminous; and they perform manoeuvres and respond to the participants' voices or light signals. The best known method is Dr Steven Greer's "CE5 protocols". Skywatchers claim the viewers' mental attitude is a major factor. Positive thoughts attract more aliens. This adds to the idea that ET's communicate directly through the brain and can read our minds. Some places are what are known as "portal areas", like some places in Arizona, where a particular geology might be perfect for generating electricity which has an effect on the presence of ET's. Sometimes the people record strange noises too. These sounds are very similar to the ones picked up in English crop circles. Sometimes they allegedly contact us directly through walkie-talkies. This is not unlike the EVP or "phone calls from the dead" mystery. But aliens are alive and well, so why are they doing the same thing? Patrick and his assistant Gino try remote viewing and spoon bending, as I have done. It's strange how this also connects to extraterrestrial beings. Patrick was also accompanied on these expeditions by Ron James who has just made his own UFO themed movie, see: https://hpanwo-radio.blogspot.com/2026/05/hpanwo-show-632-ron-james.html.

Patrick's quest led him to last year's Contact in the Desert which I also attended, see: https://hpanwo-tv.blogspot.com/2025/06/ben-in-desert-2.html. He interviewed me there and a brief segment can be seen about seven minutes into the main feature; I also returned the favour at the same meeting, see: https://youtu.be/SsvSlRRR4sI?si=TG7AyZQdF4iYVm6V&t=2006. The film also features one of the many posthumous appearances of Nick Pope still waiting in numerous film cans. Patrick came across many people at the conference who were happy to report their experiences to him. Patrick is very cautious and rational the whole time. Psionics is essentially a scientific investigation and he even advises all the viewers to try these techniques for ourselves; and anybody can do this. We don't need the help or approval of the government. He interviews Mick West to learn about the skeptic side of the issue. However, Patrick remains open-minded and impressed by some of what he encounters. UAP interaction can have very positive benefits to a person's life. One man he met was healed of a drug addiction and criminal behaviour by his skywatching activity. UFO's are also nothing new. In a remote part of Utah, Patrick and Gino's guide show them ancient Amerindian rock art a thousand years old that appears to depict bizarre beings in the air and strange lights. They even carved one of the rocks into a seat in just the right place to observe the sky. What's clear in Patrick's new movie, and in many others, is that UFO's are far more complicated than we might previously have thought. It may not be as simple as creatures like us, but from another planet, visiting us; or at least not in all examples of the phenomenon. There seems to be a distinct overlap between UFO's and the rest of the paranormal. We are faced with a lot of contradictory evidence. Aliens have this aetheric element to themselves, like ghosts, who can appear and disappear or become invisible etc; but they are also obviously flesh-and-blood organisms that are closely equivalent to terrestrial animals. They make footprints where they walk and when they die they leave behind a corpse. Their vehicles are constructed of known metallic or ceramic elements, albeit with extraterrestrial isotopic ratios, and do seem to be mechanical in some way. What's the solution to this conundrum? Well, unfortunately there's still a very long way to go before we find one. Even Disclosure probably will not give us all the answers because I doubt the secret government has completely solved this mystery either. Hopefully time will tell. Psionics- The Minds that Summon UFO's has a somewhat poignant subtext for anybody who has followed Patrick on social media for a long time. This project took him several years and so much of the material could have been filmed as early as 2024. So we are seeing the last ever historical document of Patrick pre-backslapper, before he took his "second red pill". In the last few months Patrick's output has changed considerably. The man himself has reached the point, of which I sympathize, where the deficiencies of the Disclosure movement became too much to tolerate. As a result he has become cynical and bitter, even quite misanthropic towards many of the researchers and commentators whom most people rely on to keep us informed; especially those who are admittedly making money off their activities. For those of us who still maintain some positivity and patience with this process, it's getting harder and harder to justify our dogged optimism; and persuade detractors like Patrick not to quit. In my view, something is still rolling along, often behind the scenes. I have explained why many times, see: http://hpanwo.blogspot.com/2020/02/ufo-disclosure-portal.html. Ross Coulthart has a typically Australian bluntness towards his critics; that this is not some kind of entertainment for #UFOTwitter, it's a serious business and people directly uninvolved are not always entitled to know what's going on. If Patrick is proved right I will feel disappointed, but if I am proved right, Patrick will miss out on all the fun! He has uninvited himself from the party. Psionics- The Minds that Summon UFO's is now available on a house site for a reasonable fee, see: https://www.psionics.film. The basic payment also grants you access to the extended reel with longer form interviews with some of those featured... but not me this time.
