UAP Files Podcast

In this episode of The UAP Files Podcast, I’m joined by Elliott Howey from Christchurch, New Zealand, who submitted a collection of photos and videos that seriously made me stop and stare.Some of what Elliott captured appears to resemble classic flying saucer shapes, while other footage looks more like glowing orbs moving in ways that are difficult to explain.Elliott also shares a wild encounter from his own backyard — describing an orb moving along his garden fence line, looping around a fixed lamp post, then suddenly shooting up into the sky and vanishing.We recorded this conversation at 2...

UAP Files Podcast S4|5 Blake Monteith joins me for a quick but fascinating recap of the recent Varginha UFO / “Moment of Contact” press conference at the National Press Club in Washington DC — and unlike most of us watching from home, Blake was actually in the room.We break down what it was like to experience the event in person, the emotional impact of the Brazilian witnesses’ testimony, and why the Varginha case continues to stand out as one of the most compelling incidents in modern UFO history. Blake shares what surprised him most on the day, who he saw in atten...

UAP Files podcast S4|E2 | Peter Osborne Chris Bledsoe is one of the most recognisable and talked-about figures in the modern UFO community. As the author of UFO of God and a regular presence across documentaries, television shows, and podcasts, his experiences—and the footage associated with them—have become a focal point for both belief and debate.Recently, new attention has been drawn to a piece of UFO footage connected to the Bledsoe family after my friend and regular collaborator Peter Osborne took a closer look at it. Peter comes from a technical art background and has spent many...

Today we look through the recent imagery the green orb captured by Chris Bledsoe at the State of the World Forum / Wrightsville Beach and enhanced by Peter Osborne (from Youtube channel "Truth In Focus UFO") Full Episode drops at 8pm GMT tonight!

UAP Files Podcast S4E1 The following is a conversation with Fred Pallesen, the CEO of Project Hessdalen.Project Hessdalen is a long-running research initiative focused on the unexplained light phenomena observed in the Hessdalen Valley in Norway.One of the project’s core goals is to capture measurable, verifiable data that can be shared openly with scientists and the public worldwide. Central to that effort is the Blue Box — the world’s first fully autonomous, multi-sensor anomaly detection system, which has been continuously monitoring the Hessdalen sky since 1998.As CEO, Fred helps coordinate operations, outreach, and events, and he bri...

UAP Files Podcast S3E58 | In this episode, I’m honoured to be joined by someone who truly needs no introduction in British ufology — Philip Mantle.Philip is one of the original figures of UK UFO research, someone who has been investigating, documenting, and writing about the phenomenon for decades. Long before the topic became mainstream, he was already on the ground, interviewing witnesses, examining cases, and helping to shape serious UFO investigation in the UK. He’s widely regarded as one of the country’s most respected researchers and authors on the subject, with a body o...

UAP Files Podcast S3E57 | Salvatore Pais | Today’s guest is Salvatore Pais — a physicist and advanced concepts engineer whose work sits at the far edge of propulsion, energy, and fundamental physics.Salvatore currently works within the U.S. Navy and has worked within Space Force, contributing to highly advanced research programs, and he’s publicly known for a series of patents exploring unconventional ideas involving high-energy electromagnetic systems, vacuum interactions, and spacetime engineering.Those patents later became closely associated with the public conversation around UAPs — often in ways that blurred the line between serious physics, speculation, and mythology.What mak...

In this special episode of The UAP Files Podcast, I’m joined in person for the very first time in our new studio by my good friend Peter Osborne.Pete is a true artist. After decades working as a sculptor, his journey took a fascinating turn when he began enhancing old black-and-white films. That skillset naturally led him into UFO imagery—where, in my opinion, he quickly became one of the very best in the world at what he does. Probably THE best. Today, we sit down for a relaxed and wide-ranging conversation. Pete walks us through some of his...

On December 26th, 1980—a night permanently stamped into the mythology of modern UFO history—the Rendlesham Forest Incident unfolded, now known worldwide as the “British Roswell.” Just miles from that forest, on that same charged night, a United States Air Force pilot stationed in the UK encountered something extraordinary. What he saw hovered in complete silence, impossibly close to him, before accelerating away in a manner that defied every known law of flight and propulsion. The object’s movement was not just advanced—it was non-human in capability and intent.Our guest tonight is Colonel Dan “TANNA” Isbell (ret.), a pilot whose ca...

In this episode, I speak with Ste, the creator behind the Bushcraft with Ste Outdoors YouTube channel. After seeing a remarkable piece of footage he captured — a group of glowing orbs moving in a triangular formation before separating but still maintaining formation — I knew I had to talk to the man behind the camera.Filmed in Manchester, the sighting was recorded using the GNG2K Night Vision scope, shown above. This compact night-vision unit (from Goyojo) allows for filming in complete darkness and played a key role in capturing the unusual behaviour of the objects Ste witnessed.Across a fast...

UAP Files Podcast S3E53 | In this episode I sit down with Kyle Vidmar, a U.S. Air Force veteran, former meteorologist, and DevOps engineer who supported the 175th Fighter Squadron A-10s during his enlistment at Warfield ANG Base. In the winter of 2023–2024, Kyle began noticing strange aerial anomalies directly above his home—patterns and movements he knew shouldn’t be there.Armed with a SIONYX Aurora Night-Vision-to-Color camera, he began recording three hours of footage every night, analyzing each clip and posting his findings to his X account the following day. In our conversation, Kyle breaks down what h...

Today’s guest is Dr. Dan, a counseling psychologist with a PhD who specialises in anxiety, OCD, and trauma. His professional work is grounded in science, but his personal story adds an unexpected dimension. In 2015, he had an encounter that set off a long, private journey — first trying to forget it, then trying to explain it away, and eventually realizing that what remained defied easy answers.Dr. Dan describes that process almost like moving through stages of grief: denial, bargaining, frustration, and ultimately a kind of acceptance. Not acceptance of loss, but acceptance of reality — a reality that turned out to...

Are anonymous online debunkers and forums like Metabunk quietly becoming the “official truth” — even over military pilots, scientists, and peer-reviewed research?In this video, I put Mick West’s Metabunk to the test… and they failed.This isn’t about attacking Mick West personally. This is about a growing problem:anonymous, unqualified forum users being treated as factual authorities by Wikipedia, Community Notes, journalists, and even AI models like ChatGPT, Gemini, and Grok (with its new “Grokapedia”).For years we’ve heard:“Don’t feed the trolls.”“Don’t engage with debunkers — you’ll never change their mind.”But it’s no longer just about opinions...

This video is a little different from my usual UFO/UAP content — but it’s one I really wanted to share.I recently had the chance to spend some time with Andrew (Andy) Goodall and the team at Warbird Experience, based in the UK around the midlands area. Andy kindly allowed me to film with him and his colleagues as part of a documentary coming out next year, which includes interviews with the crew, incredible footage of their aircraft, for a segment of the documentary that's coming out later next year and will feature a segment exploring the mysterious Foo...
