I am fully aware that I am overdue for some real writing time, but hot diggity has life been busy lately, and that means my Substack is becoming the unofficial clearinghouse for MTS episodes.
I promise, I am going to MAKE TIME to write.
Yesterday, I put roughly 18 hours into the latest episode, though, from show prep to recording to post-production and editing and today will be promo work on all the available social platforms. I went to bed at 5AM this morning and I’m a little punch drunk and about to go head out to grab coffee with my daughter, who is in town this week. But before I do that, let me tell you what’s been going on.
On Tuesday night, Kale Zelden and I were also invited to go on Avoiding Babylon with my old pal Anthony Abbate and his co-host, “Catholic Rob.” We had a great time, a lot of laughs, and an interesting dive into the topics of Aliens and UAPs and AI and where they all seem to meet in the middle. If you’d like to see that, it’s here:
For this week’s episode of MTS, we did our promised deep dive into the most recent appearance of David Grusch, the former Air Force Major and US Intelligence officer who was tasked with investigating secret UFO-related programs inside the Department of Defense and related agencies.
Grusch has now come forward and said he’s seen videos within the classified setting of a UFO crash with non-human bodies. He’s been told stories by colleagues he trusts about battles between various species of non-human intelligence AND battles between US military personnel and some of those species.
I know it sounds crazy, but that’s why this conversation is necessary. Very serious people with impeccable credentials are saying astonishing things with no obvious benefit to themselves other than their commitment to get the truth out, and that demands to be taken seriously on its own terms.
And just this week, Grusch’s former boss, Jay Stratton, a man with over 32 years of military and government service who was the top man in identifying aerospace threats for the Department of War and spent over 16 years in an official capacity investigating UAPs for the government released his memoir, Out of the Shadows: Revealing the Truth About Non-Human Intelligent Life.
I’m five chapters in and fascinated. Again, very sober people with distinguished careers are saying things that sound absolutely kooky if you filter them through the lens of normalcy bias — which is why we have to adjust our epistemology to try to account for what’s going on.
Here’s Jay on Special Report With Bret Baier earlier this week:
So this week’s episode taps into all of this, as Kale and I try to make sense out of how normal people with jobs and families and religious beliefs and a healthy dose of skepticism for wild claims should approach all of this.
I even include footage I took in 2023 of my own UFO experience.
I’ll be writing more about these topics as I wrestle more time away from my other duties because this is important, it’s ongoing, and it’s seemingly building to a crescendo.

I'm only half way through the podcast, but two things...
In that first clip of David Grusch you played, he says he hopes this is the last interview he does "pre-disclosure". What?! I was surprised you guys missed that. It sounds like he expects a real disclosure is coming, and given he doesn't want to do any more interviews prior to that, how long could that be? One year? Two years? Months?
Which brings me to the second point. You keep mentioning how they may not want disclosure because of the shock it would cause. Well, like, unless, they prepare you for the disclosure. I mean what have we been going through? We're in the "pre-disclosure" phase. Even Spielberg's movie was doing his part of that.
They're in the phase where some say there's something moving under the carpet. And that phase includes gradually more and more details, including insane details, so that once the real disclosure comes, you've heard it all repeatedly already. They've been pointing at the thing under the carpet so long and telling you exactly what it is, that once they pull the carpet up, you aren't all that surprised by what you see.
Wow...TWO videos to watch. You made my day, although I admit that this stuff scares the bejeebers out of me. There doesn't seem to be an explanation that is 100% positive for humanity, no matter what the truth is.
You'll probably roll your eyes, but I count myself among those who believe "aliens" are most likely demons, and part of the "great signs and wonders" that "false Christs and false prophets" will show during the end times (which Jesus speaks about in the Gospel of Matthew).
In 2 Thessalonians 2:9-12, Paul says, "The coming of the lawless one by the activity of Satan will be with all power and with pretended signs and wonders, and with all wicked deception for those who are to perish, because they refused to love the truth and so be saved. Therefore God sends upon them a strong delusion, to make them believe what is false, so that all may be condemned who did not believe the truth but had pleasure in unrighteousness."
"All power," sounds like something pretty darn spectacular, and IF that is what is going on here, why wouldn't the preparation for it begin decades before the "big reveal?"
Paul even refers to Satan as "the prince of the power of the air." (Ephesians 2:2)
I'm NOT claiming with 100% certainly that that is what is going on here, but I think it's worth considering, at least as much as the idea that "it's all real."
In any case, I'm looking forward to watching both programs! It's always the best part of my week!
