The sequence of events in this cultural moment is worth laying out. November 2025: the Age of Disclosure documentary featuring Grusch opens in theaters and brings UAPs to a mainstream audience on a screen rather than a congressional live stream. February 2026: Trump issues the executive order directing every federal…
On June 12th — three days after David Grusch stood on the Capitol steps and named specific species, specific recovered biological material, and specific slush funds — Steven Spielberg's Disclosure Day opens in theaters nationwide. The director of Close Encounters of the Third Kind. The director of ET. The filmmaker…
After the formal remarks ended, a reporter caught Rep. Tim Burchett in the post-conference scrum and asked him directly about the missing scientists — specifically about General McCaslin. Burchett said he'd heard nothing official, then without prompting added: of course something is going on. If 14 rabbis or 14 used…
Leslie Kean has been covering UAP longer than almost anyone in that room. At the Capitol Steps press conference, she made one specific ask that separated June 9th from everything before it. She said the conversation needs to shift from technology to biology. She said a former Congressional Intelligence Committee…
Chad Lewis thinks he has a theory on the Beast of Bray Road. Then another witness comes forward and resets everything. He thought it was aggressive — then someone describes it running away, as frightened of them as they were of it. Witnesses report something 150 pounds and man-like. Others…
David Grusch has now said publicly, under penalty of perjury, in congressional hearings and on the steps of the United States Capitol, that the government has recovered craft of non-human origin. What he said on June 9th went further than anything he has said before — and the specifics matter.…
Chad Lewis has investigated UFO crash sites from Roswell to Kecksburg to the Aztec site. He's also spent decades documenting cryptids across the world. And the longer he does both, the harder it gets to keep them in separate categories. Too many witnesses report seeing a UFO before, during, or…
On June 9th, 2026, a group assembled on the steps of the United States Capitol. No protesters. No advocates at a rally. Sitting members of Congress. The journalist whose 2017 New York Times story changed how the mainstream press covered UAPs. A filmmaker who has spent 30 years investigating on…
On June 9th, 2026, David Grush moved from testimony to action. What happened on those Capitol steps, and what was confirmed about Varginha, Brazil for the first time in thirty years, deserves its own episode. This is it. TIMESTAMPS 00:00 - Cold Open: Varginha 1996 & The Officer Who Died…
Chad Lewis was in Central America searching for the Tata Duende — a tiny forest protector with a machete, a sombrero, and no thumbs. Tuck yours in or he'll rip them off. But the locals also told him about their version of La Llorona: not a weeping woman on a…
We hit our goal of 1,000 YouTube subscribers — and the subscriber that pushed us over the line goes by "motherfucking princess" in the comments. She left a note saying she and her best friend helped get us to the last two. That's exactly the kind of community we're building…
Chad Lewis says the black dog phenomenon is worldwide — well-documented in the UK, parts of South America, even Central America. But the American hellhound, the spectral devil dogs people have been reporting across the Midwest for over a century, has almost no dedicated research behind it. Nobody has written…
The government can look through your camera whenever they want. CJ knows this. He's made peace with it. Because the FBI agent assigned to watch his footage has seen him playing with trading cards and obsessing over lizards for months. The man is bored out of his mind. He's not…
Early in his career, Chad Lewis was trained the standard way: separate witnesses, have them independently write and draw what they saw, and if the accounts aligned, that gave it credibility. Thirty years later he's flipped that completely. Four witnesses looking at the same UFO can each see a different…
On May 28th, a new government website went live. The opening text reads: "For sixty years, the US government has kept a closely guarded secret. Aliens have been walking among us, living in our neighborhoods and interacting with us in our daily lives." It then resolves into a live ICE…
Chad Lewis started out believing Bigfoot was a flesh-and-blood undiscovered species — something like a bear or a moose that science simply hadn't catalogued yet. Thirty years of witness interviews later, he's moved. The accounts that shifted him weren't the typical ones. They were witnesses describing Bigfoot vanishing mid-sighting. Being…
The Official Loch Ness Monster Sighting Register now has six validated entries for 2026 — already matching the entire total for 2025 with more than half the year still to go. A dark greenish-gray hump two feet out of the water near the Caledonian Canal. A shape photographed from a…
Chad Lewis holds a master's degree in psychology from the University of Wisconsin-Stout. When people ask if he believes in what he investigates, his answer is always the same: it depends on the day you ask him. His psychology background makes him both more skeptical and more open simultaneously —…
Researchers at the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology published findings showing that standard Wi-Fi routers can identify specific individuals with 99.5% accuracy by analyzing how radio waves reflect off human bodies. No active device required. You don't need to be connected to the network. Turning your phone off does not protect…
Nearly thirty years chasing the unexplained. Over twenty-five books. Multiple continents. Tonight Chad Lewis takes us down a few of his rabbit holes. TIMESTAMPS 00:00 - Introduction: 30 Years of Chasing the Unexplained 02:17 - Where It All Started: Elmwood UFOs & UW Stout 08:48 - How a Psychology Degree…
Chad Lewis was born and raised in Eau Claire, Wisconsin. In high school he heard stories about UFO sightings in Elmwood — a small town nearby with a reputation for strange lights in the sky. He drove out alone, found witnesses, and started interviewing them. That was the moment. He…
The Demon Core is the piece of the nuclear program with a human face. The piece that lets you understand what it actually costs in human terms to build the technology that appears to have drawn that attention. Daghlian was 24 years old. Slotin was 35. Both knew, by the…
On June 4th, NASA announced that the James Webb Space Telescope detected methane on interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS — the first time methane has ever been found on any object from outside our solar system. JWST also measured exceptionally high carbon dioxide levels, far beyond anything seen in comets born around…
