Type III AudioNARRATOR
Anthropica the Good Guys by Ivan Vendrof Published on October 26, 2026 I'm writing these lines in Alamordo, New Mexico.
Type III AudioNARRATOR
I'm about as close as a civilian can get to the site of the Trinity Test, the first nuclear bomb detonation in history.
Type III AudioNARRATOR
I fled here from the San Francisco Bay Area.
Type III AudioNARRATOR
After two weeks of being back I just couldn't take it anymore.
Type III AudioNARRATOR
Everyone is checking their phone.
Type III AudioNARRATOR
Where are we? What's happening? When did this nightmare start? In a way I think it started on July 16th, 1945, not far from where I'm sitting now.
Type III AudioNARRATOR
I think it's impossible to understand anthropic without putting yourself into the shoes of the Los Alamos physicists huddling together at sunrise in the aftermath of Trinity.
Type III AudioNARRATOR
It must have felt like an initiation.
Neil deGrasse TysonSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
Do you realize we isolated the element plutonium in the year 1940? And within five years, it was weaponized.
Neil deGrasse TysonSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
And that was the first atomic bomb ever detonated at Trinity Site, New Mexico.
Neil deGrasse TysonSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
Shortly after that, a duplicate was made, perfected, and dropped in warfare.
Neil deGrasse TysonSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
All that happened within four or five years.
John WestNARRATOR
The place shuts down all the time.
John WestNARRATOR
Like back when the Trinity Test happened here.
John WestNARRATOR
That's right, the first detonation of an atomic bomb in modern history happened right here.
John WestNARRATOR
The detonation was initially reported to the public as an explosion at a munitions facility, and the true nature of the test wasn't revealed until after Hiroshima on August 6, 1945.

Jacques ValléeGUEST
in the middle of the forest, it's not military, was never classified.
Jacques ValléeGUEST
It went all the way to the Academy of Sciences of the United States as an unidentified case vetted by the Comden Committee and by Professor Comden himself, who was an atomic physicist who had been with Oppenheimer at Trinity, okay? What happened is that the witness was driving through this forest at night.
Jacques ValléeGUEST
It was almost freezing.
Jacques ValléeGUEST
It was raining.
44 MINS LATER
Jacques ValléeGUEST
Two hands.
Jacques ValléeGUEST
The hands were not exactly the same, but, you know, the eyes were not exactly the same.
Jacques ValléeGUEST
But, you know, we have witnesses at Trinity, Trinity cases.
Jacques ValléeGUEST
We've now answered all the questions about Trinity.
EnriqueHOST
Lo vamos a ver, ya llegaremos ahí.
EnriqueHOST
Trinity Site Monument, el obelisco erigido en la latitud exacta treinta y tres coma sesenta y siete grados norte.
EnriqueHOST
El monolito de roca volcánica que señala el lugar de la primera detonación atómica de la historia se ubica milimétricamente en el paralelo treinta y tres.
EnriqueHOST
¡Boom! Entonces, ahora comprendemos mejor por qué estaban las logias detrás del primer bombardeo de Nagasaki.
EnriqueHOST
Entonces, vemos cómo los marcan los grados también.
EnriqueHOST
Mmm.
EnriqueHOST
Entonces, si Trinity Site Monument en Nuevo México, Estados Unidos, este obelisco erigido en la latitud exacta treinta y tres coma sesenta y siete grados norte, norte, perdonar, marca la primera detonación de la bomba atómica, mmm, vemos que utilizan el paralelo treinta y tres para, chin chin, treinta y tres grados norte para lanzar las bombas y dejar claro quiénes son los que están detrás de eso.
EnriqueHOST
Y como lo que hablábamos tantas veces, al final, eh, eh, me encantaba, mmm, el Barón Rojo, hermano.
Zulekha NathooGUEST
There are also costs to not doing anything.
Zulekha NathooGUEST
The Trinity tests were conducted in secret, right? Nearby communities were not warned that an atomic bomb was going to be tested in 1945.
Zulekha NathooGUEST
and that there would be risk of radioactive fallout.
Zulekha NathooGUEST
No evacuation took place.
Zulekha NathooGUEST
So one of the people that we spoke with is a woman named Tina Cordova.
Zulekha NathooGUEST
Cordova co-founded the Tularosa Basin Downwinders Consortium.
Zulekha NathooGUEST
So she spent years rallying and organizing community members, downwinders, to demand acknowledgement from the government that these communities were indeed affected by the Trinity tests.
Zulekha NathooGUEST
And Cordova described her family's own experience with cancer.
Simon BownHOST
So this week I'm talking to Paola Harris about the book she wrote with Jacques Vallée.
Simon BownHOST
It's called Trinity, The Best Kept Secret.
Simon BownHOST
Paola has studied unidentified aerial phenomena since 1979 and is on personal terms with the leading researchers in the field.
Simon BownHOST
From 1980 to 1986, Dr. J. Alan Hynek entrusted her with his UFO investigations outside of the United States.
Paola HarrisGUEST
Well, thank you for inviting me, Simon.
Paola HarrisGUEST
It's always my pleasure to share information from my research.
Simon BownHOST
So we're going to be talking about the book, Trinity, The Best Kept Secret.
Simon BownHOST
But could you just tell us a little bit about your background?
Adam GorightlyGUEST
So according to Downer, the first of these three great works, which was the creation and destruction of primordial matter, this was achieved on...
Adam GorightlyGUEST
July 16, 1945, in Alamogordo, New Mexico, at the Trinity nuclear detonation site, which just so happens to be on, you guessed it, boys and girls? Would that
VyzygothHOST
be...
VyzygothHOST
Third degree.
VyzygothHOST
Right.
VyzygothHOST
Isn't it interesting, too, the use of the word Trinity, which also pops up in Dealey Plaza, I believe, as well? Mm-hmm.
VyzygothHOST
You have the triple overpass there, for instance.
VyzygothHOST
Yeah, and
Matt WhitmanHOST
Call of Duty had a couple of famous small maps.
Matt WhitmanHOST
One is, like, the town at the Trinity test site.
Matt WhitmanHOST
You know, the old nuke town that gets obliterated by the bomb in the movies and stuff.
Destin SandlinHOST
Yeah.
