David Grusch, a former Air Force intelligence officer and UAP expert, shares his remarkable journey from skepticism to curiosity about UFOs after a CIA briefing. He discusses startling incidents involving unidentified objects, the stigma pilots face when reporting encounters, and the historical investigations into reverse engineering UAPs. Grusch delves into the secrecy surrounding government information and the moral obligation to disclose truths about extraterrestrial life, while also exploring broader implications of technology and consciousness in the universe.

David Grusch, UFO Whistleblower, appears on the Joe Rogan podcast, discussing unidentified objects' mysteries, origins of technological advancements, limitations of human-made craft, changing perception of UFO discussions, illegal document stealing, personal consequences and risks of speaking out.

Former intelligence officer David Grusch recently appeared before Congress, claiming that the US government possesses extraterrestrial vehicles and alien bodies. How credible are these claims and how should the government respond? Brian Dunning, host of The Skeptoid podcast and "The UFO Movie THEY Don't Want You To See," joins the discussion on UFOs and the government's knowledge.

In December 2017, the New York Times published a ground-breaking article titled “Glowing Auras and Black Money: The Pentagon’s Mysterious UFO Program.” The report was noteworthy not only for what it brought to light about the earnest government/military study of the UAP phenomenon but also that such a storied and seemingly no-nonsense newspaper like the New York Times finally took the subject seriously as well. We followed up in January 2018 with a two-part episode called “Imminent Disclosure?”  The question mark on the title indicated we weren’t sure when FULL disclosure would arrive, but drips and drops of astounding revelations were indeed on the horizon. Five and a half years later, since that watershed coverage made a splash, two of its original journalists, Ralph Blumenthal and Leslie Kean, have done it again. On June 5th, 2023, they published an article about a former intelligence official and whistleblower named David Grusch. That article is called “Intelligence Officials Say US Has Retrieved Craft of Non-human Origin.” The title alone should speak to the world-changing implications. Because this story needed daylight quickly, it was published on an independent news website called TheDebrief.org. As it turns out, our good friend and colleague, Micah Hanks, also co-founded that news organization. Thanks to Micah, we were fortunate to be granted an interview with Ralph Blumenthal to get the story behind the story. Following our discussion, we’ll hear from Micah, the Editor in Chief at The Debrief, and Chrissy Newton, their head of Media Relations and a long-time podcaster herself, to consider where we all go from here.
