Gene and cohost Tim Swartz present Graeme Rendall, a full time author and a commentator on Unidentified Aerial Phenomena (UAP).

In this episode, Rendall will also give his preliminary reaction to the book from former Pentagon UAP official Luis Elizondo, entitled "Imminent: Inside the Pentagon's Hunt for UFOs." Rendall is an acquaintance of Elizondo. In addition, he has been an aviation and World War Two history enthusiast from an early age, when he was given model aircraft kits "to keep him quiet." He is also a contributor to the "The Debrief," an American news website dealing with cutting edge science, tech and defense news, and a guest on various podcasts dealing with UAP. Rendall is also a member of UAP Media UK, a group advocating government transparency on the UAP issue.
