Clayton JamesHOST
30:37
I believe it was just called The Philadelphia Experiment.
Clayton JamesHOST
30:40
The problem with Moore's credibility is he later admitted to working with your friend, Richard Doty...
Stuart JamesHOST
30:52
Friend of the show.
Clayton JamesHOST
30:53
Friend of the show, Richard Doty.
Clayton JamesHOST
30:55
Yeah, you've got mixed feelings on Richard Doty.
Clayton JamesHOST
30:59
I can tell.
Clayton JamesHOST
31:00
So Richard Doty, who is he? He had been an agent of the Air Force Office of Special Investigations.
Clayton JamesHOST
31:07
And during his time there, one of his tasks was to spread disinformation about UFOs when people inadvertently observed classified military activities.
Michael JohnsonGUEST
111:39
You know.
Jesse MichelsHOST
111:39
Showed him Rick Doty.
Mario WoodsGUEST
111:41
Good job.
Jesse MichelsHOST
111:42
There's one thing that rings true across all of these cases.
Jesse MichelsHOST
111:46
The Air Force Office of Special Investigations, OSI, always shows up.
Jesse MichelsHOST
111:51
They swear the witness to secrecy, sometimes threatening them into silence.
Jesse MichelsHOST
111:56
But Mario's debrief involved perhaps the most infamous Air Force Office of Special Investigations agent of all time, Rick Doty.
Jesse MichelsHOST
112:08
For 37 years, Mario didn't know it.
Frank RogalaGUEST
44:56
Like when they start seeing what's in there, it's basically been just completely sealed over.
Frank RogalaGUEST
45:00
It's got everything in there from, you know, the statues, the there's gold, there's, and not, uh, you know, ancient advanced technology, which we also know that there's a ship The CIA's Richard Doty talked about it, but I've got other people that know that have been under the Egypt plateau.
Frank RogalaGUEST
45:23
There's a ship there.
Frank RogalaGUEST
45:25
They seem to be able to phase in underneath the ground.
Ryan GableHOST
23:35
There's a lot of things like that, though, in ufology especially.
Ryan GableHOST
23:38
And we know about the history of at least Richard Doty and Paul Benowitz and what they've done to – Since the 50s, and we have the report on that, the Robertson panel report, what the military and what the intelligence community has done to ufology.
Ryan GableHOST
23:54
They've infiltrated it.
Ryan GableHOST
23:55
And back then it wasn't ufology.
Ryan GableHOST
23:56
It was people that were scientists.
Ryan GableHOST
23:59
And now it's just a lot of people online selling fake stories.
Ryan GableHOST
24:03
And now the new congressional investigation to UFOs has also deteriorated, I think, to the point where it's almost like a Richard Doty is kind of running it.
Ryan GableHOST
24:15
You know, so many of the things that were presented to Congress have been turned out to be fake or Congress opens up these these these secret briefing rooms.
speaker_4HOST
43:06
And we don't just have documents.
speaker_4HOST
43:07
We have a primary source who actually executed these psychological operations on the ground, a man named Richard Doty.
speaker_3HOST
43:14
Richard Doty is one of the most fascinating and morally complex figures in this entire saga.
Katie DukeADVERTISER
43:19
He really is.
speaker_3HOST
43:20
He was a former Air Force special investigations officer.
speaker_3HOST
43:24
In a deeply unsettling documentary called Mirage Man, Richard Doty comes forward and flat out admits that his specific taxpayer funded job in the 1980s was to actively infiltrate UFO conspiracy circles.
speaker_4HOST
43:38
And the geopolitical objective behind this was brilliant in a deeply cynical Machiavellian way.
speaker_3HOST
43:45
Explain that.
Andy McGrillenHOST
127:55
... 'cause people might not have seen what this is from.
Andy McGrillenHOST
127:57
Chris Ramsey, Area 52, has just hosted, controversially for a lot of folks- Richard Doty on his show.
Andy McGrillenHOST
128:04
Richard Doty, um, infamously or famously may have been involved, or almost definitely was involved in a lot of misinformation, disinfo, PSYOP stuff that resulted in someone ending their own life, with him being directly involved in that person having issues essentially, right? Um, Chris Ramsay's hosted Rick Doty.
Andy McGrillenHOST
128:25
More power to him.
Andy McGrillenHOST
128:26
People can choose to watch it or not watch it, okay? However, during the interview, Doty's talking about beings and whatnot, Chris Ramsay shows him his phone.
Heather WoodardGUEST
39:54
Do you think, and this is something, oh man, you got me going because like I, There is a huge history with UFOs and the UFO community and mirage men, people who come in and they say one thing.
Heather WoodardGUEST
40:13
Richard Doty is like huge into that.
Heather WoodardGUEST
40:15
He came in saying that he was an FBI informant.
Heather WoodardGUEST
40:19
Then he was a government informant.
Heather WoodardGUEST
40:36
Yeah.
Heather WoodardGUEST
40:38
If you've been in the UFO, and I'm not even a ufologist, I'm just somebody that keeps track of things.
Heather WoodardGUEST
40:44
And there are HBO documentaries about Richard Doty and about how he claimed so many things that were just misinformation and that he was probably a plant.
Heather WoodardGUEST
40:54
But now everybody loves him.
Andy McGrillenHOST
40:38
I just thought...
Andy McGrillenHOST
40:39
I was just finishing up my point to say that anyone who hosts Richard Doty should be outcast from the whole community.
Chris RamsayGUEST
40:46
[laughs]
Andy McGrillenHOST
40:46
Uh, and then we go from there.

Dan ClearySOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
115:10

Chris RamsayHOST
3:59
You've got a lot, um, in your past in terms of ufology and your relationship to it, whether it's in a formal capacity or an informal capacity, uh, whether that's, uh, a hobby or a job.

Richard DotyGUEST
43:22
I went up to them.
Richard DotyGUEST
43:24
I, I'm a blunt guy, you know.
Richard DotyGUEST
43:26
I come up to him and I said, "Hey, uh, uh, you know, I'm, I'm Richard Doty." And, and they said, "Well, we know who you are." I said, uh, "You guys here on business?" And the captain, this is, was the one who was speaking, the female captain.
Richard DotyGUEST
43:42
Uh, and I never knew, I didn't know her before this.
Timothy Grieve-CarlsonGUEST
20:08
Right.
Timothy Grieve-CarlsonGUEST
20:08
Or I guess one way to put it might be if, if Richard Doty, if no one ever saw a UFO, right.
Timothy Grieve-CarlsonGUEST
20:15
Richard Doty's job would be a lot harder.
Timothy Grieve-CarlsonGUEST
20:18
Right.
Tanner F. BoyleGUEST
20:19
No, no, no.
