UAP Files Podcast S2E40 | Beyond UFOs and the Unknown | Director Paul Crowder

The following is a conversation with Director Paul Crowder discussing his the latest UFO show named Beyond: UFOs and the Unknown. Paul is an Emmy Award-winning filmmaker, director, editor and producer whose expertise spans music documentaries, sports films, aviation, and recent projects in the UFO subject. He’s also a musician and had a successful career in the music industry as well. Paul has so many credits to his name with exceptional films, many of which are award winning or nominated. So to take on the UFO subject has been incredibly exciting for many of us deep in to the UFO / UAP topic. Especially considering his previous work and considering the rest of the team behind this show including J.J. Abrams, Mark Monroe (who Directed two of the 4 episodes in Beyond), as well as Glenn Zipper, Kevin Lincoln, Maram Domzalski and many many more amazing filmmakers in one absolute A Team. In this episode we discuss the 4 part docuseries out now on MGM Plus Directed by Paul by Mark. We discuss Paul’s entry in to this subject, his thoughts now he’s been involved in this project and having spoken with the main players in the UFO field - from credentialed intel and military personnel and whistleblowers, to experiencers and researchers and if his opinions on where these UFOs may come from, or represent. A great conversation with an absolute legend in filmmaking.

The following is a conversation with Thomas L. Fessler. Thomas is the host and creator of the popular Disclosure Tonight live stream. He’s an advocate for disclosure, an experiencer and a software architect. Thomas does a lot of work with his co-host for his YouTube Channel Disclosure Mike, an anonymous investigative journalist, producer and podcast co-host and someone who I have followed on X for a long time. Lots of scoops and lots of realtime updates on the UAP subject using many sources in the intel and military world. This was a really informative and interesting conversation and a real good catch-up to where we are today in the lead-up to the Congressional hearing in a couple of weeks. #uapfilespodcast #uapfiles #uapnews #ufo #uap 

The following is a conversation with Kevin Day. Kevin is a retired U.S. Navy Senior Chief Operations Specialist and radar expert known for his involvement in the 2004 USS Nimitz "Tic Tac" UFO incident. At the time, he was part of the Nimitz Carrier Strike Group off the coast of Southern California, tasked with monitoring air traffic through advanced radar systems. Kevin and his team detected multiple anomalous, high-speed objects descending from extreme altitudes at speeds and manoeuvres beyond known technology. These objects were later visually confirmed by fighter jet pilots, including Commander David Fravor, who described the "Tic Tac"-shaped craft as manoeuvring in ways that defied physics, such as stopping mid-air and accelerating instantaneously. Kevin has since spoken publicly about the psychological impact the event had on him and his efforts to raise awareness about UAPs and their potential implications. His testimony has contributed significantly to the ongoing UFO discourse and recent government acknowledgment of UAP phenomena. Kevin is an open book, he wears his heart on his sleeve and is unapologetically honest and passionate about this subject - his experiences and his theories around what the UAP represent. He has also written equations and calculations which go towards explaining some of what this could represent. I will be posting a link to this in the description soon, which Kevin has agreed I can publish on the UAP Files Substack for people to see. #uapfilespodcast #uapfiles #uapnews #kevinday #ussnimitz #tictac #tictacufo #ufo #uap #davidfravor #navyufo #2004ussnimitz 

Oliver's Castle Crop Circle Analysis: The 1996 UFO Case Revisited The Oliver's Castle crop circle case, filmed on 11 August 1996, remains one of the most debated UFO cases. The video shows mysterious orbs seemingly creating a crop circle in real-time near Devizes, Wiltshire, England. While the footage was later dismissed as a hoax by its alleged creator, John Wabe—a supposed VFX expert—the story is far from simple. In this video, we break down: - The footage itself: Our frame-by-frame analysis reveals intriguing details and shows the orbs with more clarity than ever. - John Wabe’s account: Despite claiming responsibility, Wabe’s story has inconsistencies. He appears sporadically in film credits, his VFX experience is questionable, and his own backstory raises red flags. Join us as we explore expert opinions, footage analysis, and discuss whether this case is a hoax, a misunderstanding, or something unexplained.

In this episode, I sit down with Peter Osborne, a sculptor who creates custom pieces for high-end venues and cruise ships but also has a lifelong passion for UFOs and image/video restoration. Self-taught in computer image restoration, Peter has turned his skills to enhancing older, unclear UFO footage, revealing new details hidden within. Peter recently reached out to me after working on the famous Colombia UFO case from 2020 (Colombian airspace, near Medellín), where an unknown object was filmed from an Avianca Airbus A320. In this video, we discuss how Peter applied his techniques to clean and improve the footage, uncovering additional objects within the clip that had previously gone unnoticed. And those new images and objects never before seen.

The following is a conversation with Karen Alexander. Karen Alexander has almost three decades hunting, recording and decoding crop circles. She is a leader in her field (no pun intended) and with something as fascinating as crop circles that are inherently linked to UAPs, we’ve been very excited to talk to her and dig-in to some of the big cases. Karen is a researcher and expert on crop circles, co-running the website Temporary Temples. Along with her husband Steve Alexander, she has been documenting and studying crop formations, capturing them through aerial photography and writing about the phenomenon. Karen also speaks internationally, exploring the spiritual and cultural significance of crop circles, their connection to ancient sites, and their broader implications to the UFO/UAP discussion. #ufo #uap #cropcircles #oliverscastle #karenalexander #temporarytemples #uapfiles #uapfilespodcast #ufonews #uapnews #cropcirclenews #cropcircle  https://temporarytemples.co.uk/crop-circles/2007-crop-circles

The following is a conversation with Hattem Mattar. There are some podcast guests who i’ve struggled to connect with during our podcast interviews, Hattem just isn’t one of them. It was like two old friends catching up, talking UFOlogy over a drink. Such a fun and openminded buy, super intelligent and someone who i’ve been speaking to behind the scenes for some time, sharing thoughts and discussing UAP.. I’m so glad we connected. Hattam is a businessman, a martial artist, a farmer, a father, and so much more. There is no end to his talents.  In this conversation we dive in to Hattem’s own experiences, cultural differences in the UFO/UAP subject and speculate on cases and disclosure and what UAP may represent. #ufo #uap #nhi #hattemmattar #uapfiles #uapfilespodcast #podcast
