Summary

Gene and cohost Tim Swartz present a return appearance from Brian Young, an open-minded skeptic , who is a researcher, writer, historian, lecturer and podcast host. He specializes in boxing history, Victorian crime, with a focus on The Whitechapel Murders (Jack the Ripper) and has had a life-long interest in the weird, the wild and the paranormal. Brian will be discussing with The Paracast team the latest revelations from the alleged Pentagon "UAP Whistleblower" David Grusch, and whether his claims can be taken seriously. The discussion will also turn to those "Ripper" legends, real or fake, and pop culture, with a special emphasis on those early movie serials, especially those about super heroes, that used to attract children to the movie theater.

0:00.0	You're in the Paracast.
0:18.0	You're in the Paracast, the gold standard of paranormal radio.
0:27.8	And now, here's Gene Steinberg.
0:32.6	Before we're joined once again by Brian Young,
0:48.3	whom, as you know, studies the paranormal, but also is an expert on boxing and wrestling, which may be paranormal subjects depending on your point of view. But before we do that, Tim and I want to talk about one thing ahead of that. Tim, you've been following in our
0:55.7	forums the discussion over the controversial book by the Lay and Harris Trinity, I gather, right?
1:04.6	Oh, sure. A guy named George Wingfield, who's been on the show, by the way, and has a theory
1:10.4	that some of these events

1:57.8	But in 1945, that seems to be a little too early for me for the United States to be
2:05.5	testing rockets and things like that. Now, you know, I suppose it could be a situation where
2:14.7	they may have been testing, say, like, some of the early versions of,
2:21.0	what is it, a jet fighter has the explosive escape if the plane's in jeopardy and, you know,
2:28.0	it shoots the pilot out. I mean, I know that they were experimenting and things like that
2:33.0	fairly early on, but I don't
2:36.8	know. It just seems to me that it's just a little too early for those kind of experiments
