I've been involved in it since like 2015, 16. I was like a host, and I got to know the old owners, and I would host and participate. And so I've been going there. It's been my favorite week of the year for about 10 years. Is there anything else that you do? Are you a Burning Man guy? No. I've never done Burning Man. Now, I did do, you know, Contact in the Desert used to be like Burning Man.
It was literally physically in the desert. It was at Joshua Tree State Park. Cool. Literally. And you'd walk from like Little Hut to Little Hut to see the different speakers. It was 120 degrees outside. Yeah. Because it's in the desert. You're literally walking over cactus. Literally. And Joshua Trees. Yeah.
He's got nice shoes. Norrie and those guys have been going the whole time. They went out to the desert. Absolutely. Knapp's still legit, though.
Knapp's one of my favorite guys in the whole field, for sure.
He's a genuine investigator. We might get invited to his home. Great. We're trying to force it. He's in Vegas. Have you ever been? Not to his house, but I've seen him in Vegas.
You can digest a lot in those five days. That's how it was for me. I mean, when I first went to that, I saw a flyer once and all these names were on it, like Van Dan again.
Those guys like, I got to go see this. And then it was just like so much thrown at me at once. You can really ramp up your knowledge.
quickly in five days did you did you always were you always into ufos like what got you to all to all this you know i never had an experience i'm not an experiencer or anything like that but i've always had a curiosity to that i always like things that are unknown i like those shows in search of anything that's like that i liked art bell if you guys remember art bell he's my patron saint
There you go. I loved that stuff. And I kind of fell into a buddy of mine who had a podcast about UFOs. He's like, you're really into this. Why don't you come on? And then we did Truth Be Told together for years and years and years. So I just, and you know, the more you do it, every time you interview somebody, you learn that much more.
Maybe you read their book before they come on, or you read stuff about them, you watch their lectures, and you just, gross, gross, gross, gross.
You know, it's just one of those things. I was a personal assistant for 20 years, working for celebrities in Hollywood, so I I never really was in front of the camera or any of that.
And I'm the behind-the-scenes guy, absolutely. You know, I was always behind the scenes. But it doesn't bother me. I'm open to either role. You'd never guess.
You know, I've been doing this now for about 14, 15 years. I've interviewed all these guys. I've got to know some of them and become friendly with them. And we almost feels like to us that Contact in the Desert is sort of like a banquet for a community. You know, it's almost like an annual thing that we know we all go there. We all meet here. What have you been working on this year?
What have you been doing? You know, a lot of these guys know each other. Some of them don't see each other until Contact next year. I feel like there should be a yearbook. Almost.
Well, I'll tell you what. My whole life, I am right here, man. I am right in the middle. I am the middle of all of this. So I'm very skeptical, but I'm very open-minded. I am... A lot of these guys have gone on some of these other shows and they want me to say provocative stuff. They're like, what's the craziest thing you'll say?
And I'm like, you got the wrong guy. I'm not that guy.
Well done. Now, I will say this. I will say in the 15-year period that we're talking about, I have...
moved more towards belief that there's definitely something going on I've always thought there's something going on now I really feel you know what there's more to this than we see because it's one of those things you can't have a cursory knowledge of UFOs like if you talk to somebody on the street oh yeah I've heard of Roswell you don't know about UFOs when you interview these guys when you read these books when you deep dive into this it's a layered onion as you know so you start getting more and more knowledge in this area there's some serious shit going on here
And, you know, I've had the honor of talking to people like Avi Loeb. Yes. You don't get to be the top of astronomy at Harvard without knowing something. And he says it's most likely that somebody is going to be coming here. Why is he saying that? I give credence to these guys where I think some people dismiss those guys. And that's not right. Yeah.
OK, I'll tell you right now. I hate this because it's the cliche and I answer it the same always. But it is Roswell. And if you read the Roswell books that Don Schmidt and Tom Carey have put together. Their research is incredible, and they've interviewed these guys over and over, and they all fit into this perfect narrative.
