After the

You've entered the Paracast with your host, Jane Steinberg and David Beedney.

After reading the book that Philip Corso and William Burns wrote, I was on the fence.

And then everybody said, Corso has to be some kind of nutcase.

So what happens?

Well, I play the fifth anniversary edition of Out of the Blue, this documentary that amongst other people, James Fox, our guest produced.

And suddenly, I don't know about Philip Corso. He seems like a pretty straight shooter to me.

Really?

He comes off as credible in the video, Gene. I agree with you. I read the day after Roswell, and, you know, I'm reading it, and parts of the book I found very, very compelling. Other parts of it, and not, you know, the book overall, I thought was very credible.

There were certain things in there that I sort of shook my head and I thought, now how can that be?

Things about the timeline of the development of certain technologies

and how those timelines drive up with what Corso claims.

But overall, you know, reading the guy's words, you don't get the sense that on an external sort of a facade,

you don't get the sense that he's nonsensical. You see the footage

of him in out of the blue and he does indeed come across as someone who is genuine. But Gene,

you look at a guy like, he who shall not be named, Michael Horn, right? You listen to the guy

speak in a normal way and he seems like a reasonable cat. And then, Michael Horn, right? You listen to the guy, speak in a normal way, and he seems like a

reasonable cat. And then, you know, once you start to scratch at these guys and to try to peel

some layers back, then you start seeing true colors. And unfortunately, we don't have

Koso around to do that with, you know, in those interviews that in, out of the blue, he does indeed seem like, you say, a

straight shooter, but what happens when you put a tough question to him in person?

Unfortunately, we're never going to have that opportunity.
