WEAPONIZED with Jeremy Corbell & George Knapp

Mystery drones continue to befuddle government officials, law enforcement, and alarmed residents across at least three states. The FBI admits it has no clue who is behind the persistent drone flights in and around New Jersey. Meanwhile, military officials in the UK remain perplexed by unknown objects that violated restricted airspace over three key air bases. In this episode, Jeremy and George explore possible explanations for the mystery drones and the curious lack of a more forceful response. Investigating the unknown can be daunting for professional journalists. In this episode, two courageous journalists from Australia describe their initial skepticism in pursuing a story about a series of bizarre events that troubled residents of one rural community. Danielle O’Neal and Piia Wirsu, reporters for ABC in Australia, found themselves deep down a UFO rabbit hole after asking questions about the appearance of “saucer nests” linked to UFO sightings. As they dug deeper, they discovered connections between the saucer nests of the 1960s and the crop circles that began appearing in large numbers in the 1980s. Reporting on UFO-related topics comes with its own set of risks, but the two persisted and produced a compelling five-part series that delves into the history of UFO lore and features contributions from some of the best-known investigators Down Under. ••• Check out Danielle and Piia’s EXCEPTIONAL journey of hardcore journalism into the wild wild world of all things UFO and SAUCER NESTS by listening to EXPANSE : UNCROPPED here : https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/expanse/id1635088231 ••• Watch the three-part UFO docuseries titled UFO REVOLUTION on TUBI here : tubitv.com/series/300002259 Watch Knapp's six-part UFO docuseries titled ALIEN INVESTIGATION on NETFLIX here : https://www.netflix.com/title/81674441 ••• GOT A TIP?

In this jam-packed episode Jeremy and George dive into multiple hot button topics that are still unfolding. Ace journalist Chris Sharpe is on the ground in the UK as military airspaces continue to be penetrated nightly by mystery objects described as “drones.” But if they are mere drones, who is flying them, what are they doing, and why do the sophisticated sensors and weapons of both the UK and US powerless to stop them, track them, or shoot them down? Also joining the podcast, underwater archeologist Rory Kremer describes how he and his team were able to record astonishing video of a UFO that became a USO when it descended from the sky and slowly slipped into the Pacific Ocean as a video camera recorded the performance. A brief clip of this encounter is featured in the Netflix series Investigation Alien. In this WEAPONIZED episode, the world will get a much longer look at the transmedium object and other unknowns seen by Kremer and crew out in “TIC TAC UFO” territory. And if anyone is still confused by the odd circumstances surrounding the recent congressional hearing into UAP - WEAPONIZED feels your pain. What if anything did we learn from that event? What was unfolding behind the scenes? And were clues dropped about where things might head next?

November 14th marks the 20th anniversary of what may be the most consequential UFO encounter of all time—the Tic Tac case. Sophisticated sensors on ships and planes in the USS Nimitz carrier group detected incursions by unknown objects over nearly two weeks. On the 15th, Navy radar operators finally locked onto one of the objects, and David Fravor, commander of the Black Aces squadron, was sent to investigate. Fravor’s stunning eyewitness encounter would later become a cornerstone of the largest acknowledged UFO investigation ever funded by the U.S. government, eventually inspiring renewed global interest in the UFO mystery. The consequences are still unfolding. To mark the 20th anniversary of the Tic Tac encounter, Dave Fravor sat down with Jeremy and George to recall what he saw that day, adding details never before made public. “All the king’s horses and all the king’s men…” ••• Watch the three-part UFO docuseries titled UFO REVOLUTION on TUBI here : tubitv.com/series/300002259 ••• GOT A TIP?

Reporters who cover UFO-related topics know the risks of pursuing a subject that has been scorned and ridiculed for decades. Intrepid journalists know they risk their professional credibility, but there are other less obvious downsides. In this episode of Weaponized. Jeremy Corbell and George Knapp converse with two journalists who have been on the receiving end of unscrupulous and underhanded slams and insults. Chris Sharp, editor of The Liberation Times, shares details about his explosive reports looking into a multi-agency operation that pursues non-human technology in the world's ocean. Who is pulling the strings on USO secrecy? And Washington DC based congressional reporter Matt Laslo provides an update on the UAP Disclosure Act, which may NOT be dead after all. Both Sharp and Laslo say they have been targeted by trolls and provocateurs and why they are still hopeful that upcoming Congressional hearings can move the UAP subject forward. ••• Follow Chris Sharp's work on X at https://x.com/ChrisUKSharp and his publication at https://LiberationTimes.com ••• Follow Matt Laslo's work on X at https://x.com/MattLaslo and his publication at https://askapol.com ••• Watch the three-part UFO docuseries titled UFO REVOLUTION on TUBI here : tubitv.com/series/300002259 ••• GOT A TIP?

When Jeremy and George began recording this episode of WEAPONIZED, the proposed UAP Disclosure amendments to the Defense Authorization Act were still alive. By the time the recording session ended, Disclosure was dead for 2024. Nonetheless, the fight goes on. Last week, Jeremy Corbell met with several elected members of the House and key staff members to map out plans for upcoming UFO hearings. At the same time, an experienced lobbyist Lester Nare was also on Capitol Hill urging members to keep pushing for UFO transparency. Will such efforts keep the issue alive in Washington, in spite of significant pushback from powerful interests who prefer that UFO secrets stay buried? In this episode, Jeremy and George provide an update on what members of Congress are thinking, and Lester Nare shares his thoughts on how the fight may unfold in the coming months. ••• Follow Lester's work on X at https://x.com/LesterNare & https://x.com/UAPcaucus Reach out and see what you can do to help UAP Transparency here... https://UAPcaucus.com ••• Watch the three-part UFO docuseries titled UFO REVOLUTION on TUBI here : tubitv.com/series/300002259 ••• GOT A TIP?

The release of Lue Elizondo's bestselling book Imminent has refocused public attention on one of the strangest - and most disturbing episodes in UFO history. Elizondo recalls the moment when he first learned about the Colares UFO attacks, in which thousands of people in and around the Amazon River community of Colares were physically attacked by UFO objects that swooped down from the sky and occasionally from out of the water. Thousands of people fled their homes and as many as 2,000 reported suffering injuries after being hit by beams emanating from the unknown craft. The Brazilian Air Force launched a major investigation and many years later, their files were released to the public. In this episode of WEAPONIZED, Jeremy and George speak with Thiago Ticchetti, Brazil's top UFO investigator and author about the Colares attacks and what became of the once-secret files. Thiago alleges that astoundingly clear film footage and photos obtained by the Brazilian military were sent to the US but have never been shown to the public. The WEAPONIZED team also reviews assorted conspiracy theories and debunking efforts that have popped up in UAP circle in recent weeks, including some related to Elizondo's book. ••• For UFO cases related to Brazil, reach out to Thiago and check out his excellent work...

Jeremy Corbell hits the road to Las Vegas to reconnect with George Knapp and dive into the UFO projects that have been quietly brewing behind the scenes. The Weaponized team also took the opportunity to support rock star Dave Navarro, who made his triumphant return to the stage with Jane’s Addiction after years of battling long COVID. Though Navarro has always been intrigued by UFOs, he often approaches the topic with a healthy dose of skepticism. As the scorching Las Vegas summer heat blazed on, it marked a significant anniversary in the team’s ongoing quest for UFO truth. Thirty years ago this summer, a TV crew journeyed to the UK to investigate the mysterious crop circles that seemingly materialize overnight in grain fields. During this trip, they had a memorable encounter with a Ministry of Defense official - who would later become a prominent figure in UFO discussions - adding yet another intriguing layer to their search for answers. ••• Watch the three-part UFO docuseries titled UFO REVOLUTION on TUBI here : https://tubitv.com/series/300002259 ••• GOT A TIP?

One year ago this week, members of Congress held an extraordinary public hearing in which credible witnesses testified about an enormous UFO coverup by the military and intelligence communities. The statements of David Grusch, David Fravor, and Ryan Graves made headlines around the world and members of Congress vowed to continue their inquiry. In the months since then, the Keepers of the Secrets have pushed back. An error-riddled report from AARO attempted to discourage Congress and the media from pursuing UFO truth. And the former director of AARO has claimed that nearly all UFO cases are now considered to be explained, and that so-called UFO whistleblowers are simply misinformed. In this episode, Jeremy and George are joined by former DoD analyst turned journalist Marik Von Rennenkampf who just recorded an illuminating interview with former AARO boss Dr. Sean Kirkpatrick, who shared his thoughts about famous UFO cases and renewed efforts by Congress to force the release of UFO files and evidence. ••• Marik von Rennenkampff served as an analyst with the State Department’s Bureau of International Security and Nonproliferation.

WEAPONIZED is supposed be on hiatus, but recent bursts of gaseous emissions from the folks at AARO have made it difficult to lounge by the pool and sip frozen concoctions. The recent release of documents related to a proposed UAP-related program within Department of Homeland Security (DHS) was hardly a gesture toward transparency by AARO. In this unscheduled, unexpected episode of WEAPONIZED, Jeremy and George review the true history of the proposed Kona Blue program, what it could have accomplished, and how AARO's former boss has blatantly misled the public about whistleblower testimony allegedly related to Kona Blue. And what about those continuing drone incursions over sensitive U.S. military air space, the whitewashing of a UFO incident under investigation by members of Congress, and other assorted tidbits?

In the Season Finale of WEAPONIZED, Jeremy and George look back at some of the key moments from the past thirteen months, including exclusive interviews with major insiders from government UFO investigations (Jay Stratton, Dr. James Lacatski, Dr. Colm Kelleher), disclosure proponents and journalists (Rep. Tim Burchett, Richard Dolan, Ross Coulthart, Bryce Zabel, UFO Joe Murgia), incredibly talented writers and artists (Robbie Williams, Dave Foley, Ben Schneider, Duncan Trussell, Whitley Strieber, John Long) and other surprises including leaked videos obtained from government files. In a fortuitous twist, the Pentagon's long-awaited report from AARO about the history of US investigations of UFOs was released just in time for our last episode. It turned out to be a perfectly predictable propagandized rewriting of history, punctuated by sloppy errors, blatant falsehoods, and the dismissal of testimony from dozens of witnesses. ••• Watch the three-part UFO docuseries titled UFO REVOLUTION on TUBI here : https://tubitv.com/series/300002259 ••• GOT A TIP?

This week, WEAPONIZED traveled to Washington D.C. to gain a sense of where the fight for UFO transparency stands at the moment. Debunkers, including former agency big-shots and social media nincompoops are scrambling to dissuade Congress from pursuing evidence about crash retrieval and reverse engineering programs. No further UFO hearings are on the schedule on Capitol Hill, but key members of Congress are confident such hearings will happen. In this episode, Jeremy and George share information gleaned from confidential meetings with members of Congress, key congressional staff members, and first hand witnesses who expressed concerns about where the topic might be heading. ••• Watch the three-part UFO docuseries titled UFO REVOLUTION on TUBI here : https://tubitv.com/series/300002259 Watch the video analysis by HERE SUDDENLY on YouTube of the Antioquia Colombia UAP video here : https://youtu.be/V4MzC2Rb6PU ••• GOT A TIP?

As long predicted, the closer the public gets to the truth about UFOs, the harder the pushback will become. That day has finally arrived. Since the beginning of 2024, the keepers of UFO secrets within government, along with their allies in defense corporations, and subservient toadies on various media platforms have unleashed a torrent of devious, ill-informed, sometimes laughable attacks on truth, facts, members of Congress, curious scientists, diligent journalists, and the public itself. Former AARO Director Sean Kirkpatrick led the charge with a blistering denouncement of the program he directed and the members of Congress who created it. Dr. Kirkpatrick spent "a whole year" investigating UFOs but found "no evidence.” His demonstrably false allegations were quickly magnified in a seemingly coordinated series of articles written by like-minded friendly reporters. At the same time, a cabal of hard-core debunkers, masquerading as skeptics, had been outed for its secret takeover of all Wikipedia content regarding UFOs and prominent people who have investigated the subject. And on various social media platforms, where civil discourse is a rarity, a cohort of the usual suspects have participated in unleashing personal attacks that are vile, even by their own low standards. So, what's going on? Is all of this unfolding at the same time purely by coincidence? In this episode, Jeremy and George review some of the more glaring examples of the new era of pushback against UFO truth and give shout outs to some of the unsung heroes who are fighting hard to push back against the onslaught of propaganda. Plus, don't miss a special segment featuring Bob Lazar, who sheds light on the intriguing anatomy of a flying saucer.

Ernest Cline is the visionary best-selling author of Ready Player One, Ready Player Two, Armada, and the upcoming Bridge to Bat City, as well as the co-screenwriter of the blockbuster movie Ready Player One directed by Steven Spielberg, and co-founder of Readyverse Studios. Cline is a brilliant novelist and screenwriter whose books have earned worldwide acclaim and a legion of devoted fans around the world. Cline's first visionary bestseller Ready Player One was eerily accurate prediction of where AI and virtual reality tech are taking us. Cline worked with legendary director Steven Spielberg in creating a mega-hit movie based on the novel. Cline's deep research into UFO history and extraterrestrial scenarios culminated in a second best selling novel about an alien invasion, which has also been optioned for a future film. A sequel, Ready Player Two, topped bestseller lists in 2023 and is in development to become a film. In this bonus episode of Weaponized, George and Jeremy travel to Austin Texas to visit their pal and to tour his astonishing collection of iconic pop culture collectibles, movie memorabilia, and a vast library UFO and sci-fi books, films, and collectibles. Ernie also revealed his soon to be released next book, based on a true story from his home town. It's a fun peek into the life of one of America's best writers, sort of an episode of "UFO Cribs”.

In the fall of 2017, security personnel at a U.S. military base in Iraq detected a highly unusual intruder. The bizarre object was essentially invisible to all but a thermal imaging system. A thermal recording of the object as it flew across the base was made by astonished observers. Within minutes, a video feed of the episode was cut off from U.S. allies located within the same base. Intelligence assets at the base continued to monitor the object as it crossed the facility, then zipped over an adjacent body of water, stopped on a dime, plunged into the lake, then emerged 17 minutes later and blazed into the heavens at an astonishing speed. An attempt was made by the base commanders to collect and suppress all evidence of the incident. Witnesses were all sworn to secrecy. The full video files were seized, then buried. But somehow, a partial copy of the video was made and stored on an secret internal server. The object, dubbed "the spaghetti monster" by those who later saw parts of the video, seemingly resembled a jellyfish. It was widely viewed by base personnel in the months afterward. In this episode of WEAPONIZED, Jeremy and George reveal details about how and when they obtained a video of the sensational Jellyfish UFO, what steps were taken to try and discern what it might be, and also respond to spurious attempts to explain away the jellyfish UFO as something other than a legitimate UAP. That Jellyfish video exploded onto the UFO scene days ago and has now been viewed by millions of people around the world. Included in this episode are comments from one of the military personnel who was present at the base soon after the incident. ••• Watch the three-part UFO docuseries titled UFO REVOLUTION on TUBI here : https://tubitv.com/series/300002259 ••• GOT A TIP?

Despite remarkable events of the past six years, the UFO public is impatient when it comes to truth and disclosure. When do we get to see the craft and bodies? Where is the real evidence? Will more whistleblowers come forward? Esteemed historian Richard Dolan has heard these demands before. His meticulously researched books about the complicated politics surrounding UFO truth, including the heavy-handed tactics used by intelligence agencies, the DOD, and defense contractors, are widely regarded as the most comprehensive and accurate accounts of all time. What does Dolan make of recent whistleblower revelations, strident statements by members of Congress, and renewed interest within academic circles? In this far-reaching conversation, Jeremy and George ask Dolan about current events compared to previous periods in American history, about the global nature of UFO incidents, and about how the public might handle UFO disclosure IF the truth turns out to be far darker than we might imagine. Dolan also reveals details about his latest research project - a gargantuan investigation of USO cases, that is, incidents involving unidentified objects in or around bodies of water.

Long before the existence of AAWSAP or AATIP, there was another UFO investigation within the Dept. of Defense named ATP [the Advanced Theoretical Physics program], headed by a veteran intelligence officer named Col. John Alexander. Alexander and colleagues searched for hidden evidence of UFO crash retrieval/reverse engineering programs but didn't find any. For years afterward, Alexander was skeptical whenever "crashed saucers" were mentioned, but what about now? His detractors refer to Col. Alexander as "Dr. Death”. He is purported to have psychic powers and mind control abilities, is often associated with the shadowy "Aviary" group of UFO insiders, and is viewed with fear and suspicion whenever he attends a UFO conference, on a par with the Men in Black or Darth Vader. Alexander chuckles about how he is perceived by ufologists. He led special forces teams into combat during the Vietnam conflict, was involved with the US Army's remote viewing program, became the head of Non-Lethal Weapons research at Los Alamos lab, and in the 90's, hooked up with NIDS, the National Institute for Discovery Science which was created and funded by Las Vegas billionaire Robert Bigelow. Alexander was with Bigelow when the businessman purchased what came to be known as Skinwalker Ranch. In this episode, Dr. Alexander reveals to George and Jeremy how his view of the “crashed saucers” story has evolved, shares his impressions from the recent Sol conference, discusses previous attempts to achieve UFO transparency through congressional action, and gives his assessment of fellow intelligence officer Col. Phillip Corso. Check out Col. John B. Alexander's books here : https://www.amazon.com/stores/John-B.-Alexander/author/B001HCZBZY ••• GOT A TIP?

Congressional efforts to force the disclosure of legacy UFO programs and secrets ran into a political buzzsaw this month. Sweeping legislation was largely gutted at the last minute by a few key committee chairmen with strong ties to defense contractors, the very same companies suspected of housing Special Access Programs involving UAP crash retrieval/reverse engineering. Is this the end of meaningful disclosure efforts? Not even close. In this episode, Jeremy and George review the plusses and minuses of the political infighting in Congress, why the fight will almost certainly continue, what might comes next, and check in with Liberation Times editor/publisher Chris Sharp, whose hard-hitting coverage of the disclosure legislation names names and identifies the opposition in stark terms.

Inspired by the sworn testimony of UFO whistleblowers, Congress is grappling with legislation designed to force the disclosure of materials, craft, and bodies allegedly collected from crash sites. The current wave of whistleblowers is not the first to spill secrets about UFO crashes and reverse engineering efforts by military contractors. In 1997, a high-ranking Army Intelligence official Colonel Phillip Corso shocked the world with his account about a Pentagon office charged with dribbling bits and pieces of alien technology out to major corporations and labs. The tech, Corso said, came from crashes near Roswell New Mexico. Corso's book "The Day After Roswell" became a huge bestseller in 1997, the 50th anniversary of the Roswell events. But five years before he released a book, long before he was known to anyone in the UFO field, Corso told his story to George Knapp. Corso also sat down for two lengthy interviews conducted by personnel associated with NIDS, the National Institute for Discovery Science. The interviews were recorded, though the recordings were never released. In this episode of WEAPONIZED, Jeremy and George revisit the Corso tale and take a deep dive into the unreleased Corso tapes. ••• GOT A TIP?
