Ryan SpragueHOST

Um, [laughs] I'm gonna read a little bit here, and it's not really a laughing matter.
Ryan SpragueHOST
21:03
So former Pentagon UAP official and imminent author, Lue Elizondo, has filed a federal lawsuit against his former best friend and business partner, Tucker Alger or Alger, I'm not sure how to pronounce that, following the collapse of their partnership in Bombshells American Cantina, a World War II-themed restaurant and cocktail lounge in Buffalo, Wyoming.
Ryan SpragueHOST
21:29
According to the complaint, Elizondo provided much of the initial financing for the venture, including money towards $55,000 liquor, liquor license-
Suzanne LandersHOST
21:40
Yeah
Suzanne LandersHOST
23:33
... looking around about what all was going on and how this could have happened.
Suzanne LandersHOST
23:37
And I think maybe let's talk about Tucker Alger first for a minute.
Suzanne LandersHOST
23:43
He owned a local gym, uh, called the Buffalo Athletic Club, and he was also, I think this is fascinating, Lue Elizondo's personal assistant and bodyguard off and on-
Ryan SpragueHOST
23:54
Whoa
NateHOST
16:10
Mike.

Luis Elizondo, he was a former U.S. Army counterintelligence officer, former Department of Defense official.
NateHOST
16:18
And he's been publicly associated with the Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Program, or AATIP, which is like A-A-R-O-N.

from that skit
Lex GordonHOST
24:03
And this was basically the government's party line from nineteen forty-seven at the Roswell crash until the m- the middle twenty tens or late twenty tens.
Lex GordonHOST
24:16
So there was this quiet continuation of military and intelligence interest, it would seem, because in twenty seventeen- When The New York Times broke the story with the help of Luis Elizondo, uh, we covered him in episode 74, Congressional and UFO Hearing Reaction and Analysis.
Lex GordonHOST
24:37
That was...
Lex GordonHOST
24:38
So that was, uh, at, back in episode 74 was one of the first times we, we dug into this modern disclosure, and now we're at episode 144, so, um, 70 later.
Lex GordonHOST
24:53
So anyway, and, and this is a whole, that was a whole show obviously of its own, but Luis Elizondo was cast as a sort of inside the Washington loop whistleblower.
Lex GordonHOST
25:07
But really you can go back and listen to that episode.
Lex GordonHOST
25:10
It's a good one.
Lex GordonHOST
26:31
So anyway, it was in 2017.
Idiot MysticHOST
7:54
That article is a huge reason that the modern UAP conversation exists in the form that it does.
Idiot MysticHOST
8:01
It puts names like Harry Reid, Robert Bigelow, Luis Elizondo, and Pentagon UFO research in front of people who had never listened to Art Bell at 2am while eating cold Pop-Tarts.
Idiot MysticHOST
8:15
Or maybe that was just me.
Idiot MysticHOST
8:17
But Skinwalkers at the Pentagon is very firm on this point.
Anthony SanchezGUEST
75:14
Um, uh, honestly, behind me on the shelf, there's a b- yeah, so it's the US Department of War, so if you go to war.gov/ufo, it'll bring it up.
Anthony SanchezGUEST
75:21
Behind me, there's the book Imminent by Lue Elizondo, and, uh, he's come under a lot of, uh, scrutiny because of some of the claims that he made.
Anthony SanchezGUEST
75:33
And he was, uh, outright debunked.
Anthony SanchezGUEST
75:36
There's a guy on YouTube called The Sneezing Monkey, and, uh, he does a YouTube channel where he debunks a lot of the UFO people.
Anthony SanchezGUEST
75:55
I believe that there are conspiracies around the world, that we are being gaslit by governments.
Anthony SanchezGUEST
76:01
And perhaps they are, uh, you know, tapping into these beliefs that we have and, uh, p- um, and, and using them against us.
Anthony SanchezGUEST
76:09
So yeah, but the book Imminent, you know, Lue Elizondo.
Anthony SanchezGUEST
76:15
I think, you know, once you're part of the intelligence apparatus, y- you are a part of the intelligence apparatus, and you cannot make the distinction.
Jason SomozaGUEST
42:49
And this is something I've made a big deal of saying recently because I've spent so much time on this World Commerce Corporation thing and it's going to be a five or six part series because there's so much to talk about here.
Jason SomozaGUEST
43:01
But one of the interesting things is If a private consortium stole this sensitive information from the war, from before the war, and monopolized it after the war, a group of people who didn't have any allegiance to any individual country, and through private interests, build something, then Luis Elizondo or whoever it is can go on Fox News and say, well, it's not Russian, it's not Chinese, and it's not American, right? And he wouldn't be lying because the actual technology isn't controlled by a sovereign nation state.
Jason SomozaGUEST
43:35
It's developed by private transnational interests that go above that.
Jason SomozaGUEST
43:41
and so i i wonder if that's one of the big dirty secrets is like you said whether it and i actually today i think there's probably multiple private groups who've who've had the breakthroughs i think after the war i i certainly think the the wcc is one of them and it's interesting to hear you say you think there might be another one too but i i think that's the story it's not really about nation states it's about something that cuts across those And maybe involves criminal elements as well, not just business, right? A mix of business, scientific, government, but maybe also criminal networks that represent something a lot darker.
