Whistleblowers 'fear being murdered,' author says | Reality Check
2026/11/11
Ross Coulthart explores mysterious untold stories using a fact-based approach to address various topics, from unidentified aerial phenomena to other mysteries that often go unreported. In this episode of "Reality Check," Coulthart sits down with David Burkett, author of the new book “Lies Above: How the Pentagon Misled Congress and Cost America Its Skies.” Burkett is a cybersecurity researcher at cybersecurity firm Corelight Labs and part of an aerospace defense team that earned the Defense Counterintelligence and Security Agency’s Cogswell Award.
He calls himself a lifelong skeptic who changed his mind after digging into the data. Burkett explains why he believes the government’s handling of UAPs is a scandal, starting with the 1967 Malmstrom nuclear missile shutdown and Dr. Sean Kirkpatrick’s later explanation that it was an electromagnetic pulse test. They also discuss the Condon Committee’s blind spot, the unexplained 2024 New Jersey drone incursions and the sensor data behind the 2004 Nimitz “Tic Tac” encounter. Burkett also explains why a break-in at a source’s home convinced him whistleblowers face real retaliation.

Ross Coulthart Q&A: UFO crashes, the 'face on Mars' and US midterm elections | Reality Check
2026/11/08
Ross Coulthart explores mysterious untold stories using a fact-based approach to address various topics, from unidentified aerial phenomena to other mysteries that often go unreported. Now, he is turning to viewers, answering their pressing questions each week.
In this week's episode, Coulthart tackles questions about whether the Trump administration is hesitating on disclosure and why he says NDA waivers only apply if whistleblowers go through the PURSUE initiative or All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO). He also takes on whether multiple nonhuman species could be fighting over Earth, whether the “face on Mars” could be artificial and why Avi Loeb’s science advisory committee is frustrated. He examines the long history of false flags, from Operation Northwoods to Wernher von Braun’s alleged “alien card” warning. Plus, Coulthart breaks down Tom DeLonge’s claim of a buried alien artifact in Alaska that is “suppressing consciousness.”

Inside the Pentagon's Anomaly Office | Reality Check
2026/11/03
In this episode of Reality Check, Ross Coulthart sits down with physicist Dr. Randy Bostick, former science advisor to the Pentagon office that investigates unidentified anomalous phenomena (UAP), the All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO), at the Scientific Coalition for UAP Studies conference in Toronto. Bostick explains what AARO does and does not hold, walks through his analysis of the Navy's Go Fast video, and describes Gremlin, the office's own sensor system built to watch the sky for weeks at a time. The conversation turns to the New Jersey drone incursions, objects reported over nuclear sites and weapons test ranges, and a presidential records release that tied military encounters with unknown objects to active radar jamming. Through all of it, Bostick returns to one problem: military aircraft and sensors detect these objects, and the data that could explain them is rarely saved.CHAPTER SUMMARY:0:00 Intro1:45 Inside the Pentagon's Anomaly Office3:45 Crash Retrieval Program Allegations6:51 Analyzing the Go Fast Video12:30 Glowing Orbs and Black Triangles13:37 Criticism and Project Blue Book16:59 The New Jersey Drone Incursions22:40 The Gremlin Sensor System26:53 Spectral Analysis of Unknown Objects29:58 Missing Data and Radar Jamming36:09 Objects Over Nuclear Sites39:17 Is Jamming a Flight Safety Threat?43:13 Why the Videos Are Redacted47:33 Judging the Office's FutureCREDITS:Host: Ross CoulthartExecutive Producer: Andy GipsonEditorial Producer: Meagan MedickProducer: Will TomasiResearch Producer: Rob JonesEditor: Kanyon LyonsSOCIAL TAGS:X: @rosscoulthart https://x.com/rosscoulthartInstagram: @rosscoulthart https://www.instagram.com/rosscoulthart/

In this episode of "Reality Check," Ross Coulthart sits down with Robert S. Martinez, a retired employment lawyer whose book, "My Most Unusual Client: The Shocking Truth of the Alien Agenda," recounts a case he took on in Albuquerque, New Mexico, in 1996. Martinez describes a client from Alamogordo, whose name attorney-client privilege still keeps confidential, who said he spent nearly 50 years with a government contractor at the White Sands Missile Range, first monitoring space and later helping coordinate the retrieval of crashed craft.
The client spoke of photographs from the 1947 Roswell crash and of American fighter jets lost in confrontations with unidentified craft, beginning in the Korean War and returning in the 1990s with encounters near commercial airliners over New Mexico. Martinez recounts bringing the case to Congressman Steven Schiff, who was pressing the Air Force for its Roswell records at the time. Within days of that meeting his client was dead and Martinez traces what followed, from a stolen case file to two incidents that put him and his girlfriend in the hospital.

2026/10/25
Ross Coulthart explores mysterious untold stories using a fact-based approach to address various topics, from unidentified aerial phenomena to other mysteries that often go unreported. Now, he is turning to viewers, answering their pressing questions each week.
In this week's episode, Coulthart tackles questions about whether the U.S. government has secretly worked with hybrid extraterrestrials for decades; Tim Taylor, the enigmatic NASA aerospace biomedical engineer widely identified as “Tyler D” in Diana Walsh Pasulka’s books; why he believes the Pentagon’s categorical denials only speak for the All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office, or AARO; and what legal basis allows the legacy program to be kept from presidents.

Witnesses say they saw low-flying, triangular craft over military sites | Reality Check
2026/10/23
The White House on Friday released the latest tranche of declassified UFO files that includes information about recent incursions over U.S. military sites. Some of the documents date back to the 1940s, 1950s and 1960s, but perhaps the most intriguing records on “unidentified anomalous phenomena” are from this year. They include three separate reports describing what the FBI and the Pentagon call a black, triangle-shaped craft flying over sensitive military sites. The object reportedly flew at an elevation of 200 to 300 feet and measured about 9-feet long, with a wingspan of approximately 13 feet.
The craft traveled roughly a mile and a half in less than three seconds while flying near military personnel. It reportedly had no obvious propulsion mechanism and produced no sound or lights. Some officials interviewed about the sightings said the U.S. may still be years away from developing technology comparable to what military personnel reported seeing with their own eyes. Other documents in Friday’s file release include reports of cylinder-shaped flying objects dating back to the 1960s and 1970s in Saudi Arabia, Sweden and other locations. Many of those records have never been declassified until now.

The Lakenheath drone incursions | Reality Check
2026/10/21
In this episode of "Reality Check," Ross Coulthart sits down with Mike Morgan, a former senior investigating officer with 30 years in British policing and the author of "The Silence is Deafening," and Liberty, a plane spotter who lives near Royal Air Force Lakenheath. The conversation centers on the objects reported over Lakenheath, Mildenhall, Feltwell and Fairford in November 2024, which officials called drones without naming an operator or releasing a single photograph.
Morgan explains what his Freedom of Information requests turned up, from a police helicopter's near-miss report to an investigation staffed by part-time officers who, by his account, made no inquiries of local drone operators. Coulthart presses both men on the case for Russian or Chinese involvement and on why bases associated with nuclear weapons might draw that kind of attention. Liberty describes the silent craft that crossed his field the day before the incursions began and the radio call he says he heard from one of the pilots sent up to chase them.

Ross Coulthart explores mysterious untold stories using a fact-based approach to address various topics, from unidentified aerial phenomena to other mysteries that often go unreported. Now, he is turning to viewers, answering their pressing questions each week.
In this week's episode, Coulthart tackles questions about Avi Loeb’s plan to deploy scientific sensors at orb hotspots, starting with White Sands, and why he believes the White House is working around the legacy program’s cover-up. He explains why older UAP accounts describe gears and shafts while modern ones don’t and why Europe’s UAP hotspots include Greece. Plus, he gives his take on Jake Barber’s new mothership video and the Cold War-era nuclear explosions that may have brought down a UAP.

'Archive X' and the impossible | Reality Check
2026/10/13
In this episode of "Reality Check," Ross Coulthart sits down with Jeffrey J. Kripal, the J. Newton Rayzor Chair in Philosophy and Religious Thought at Rice University and host of the new six-part series "Archive X: Unexplained Phenomena." Kripal oversees Rice's Center for the Impossible, formerly the Archives of the Impossible, a collection that holds the papers of John Mack and Jacques Vallée among more than a million items on telepathy, near-death experience, abduction and precognition.
The conversation opens with the nonverbal autistic children of the series' first episode and the place they call the hill. Then, moves to the abduction account of Karin Austin, the artist Andrew Paquette's dreams of disasters that later happened and Kripal's argument that the brain is a receiver of consciousness rather than its producer. Coulthart puts the harder questions to Kripal, including why a nonhuman intelligence would block a witness's memory, whether a future human civilization is behind the encounters and what to make of Christian arguments that the phenomenon is demonic. Kripal's answer runs through all of it, that these experiences cluster around trauma and love, that they have happened for millennia and that the task is to listen before reducing them to any worldview.

NASA chief says all UAP data released; Coulthart says no | Reality Check
2026/10/11
Ross Coulthart and Meagan Medick open with a “Reality Check” exclusive: NewsNation’s Nancy Loo sat down with NASA Administrator Jared Isaacman, who said the agency has already released all of its UAP data. Coulthart says that isn’t the case and he walks through the Apollo, Gemini and Skylab records he says are still unreleased.
In this week’s episode, Coulthart tackles questions about the Apollo 17 “blue dots” film still under Pentagon and NASA review, the Defense Intelligence Agency’s announcement that it has found missing files and Jake Barber’s new claim that a cylindrical “mothership” releases egg-shaped craft, which Coulthart compares to historic sightings over Tehran in 1976. He also examines whether artificial intelligence is the key to understanding the UAP phenomenon, from Dr. Beatrice Villarroel’s geostationary-orbit research to the possibility of an autonomous monitoring system watching Earth.

Mapping the Palomar transient hotspots | Reality Check
2026/10/06
In this episode of "Reality Check," Ross Coulthart sits down with astrophysicist Dr. Beatriz Villarroel, founder of the VASCO project at Nordita in Stockholm, and Vanderbilt's Dr. Stephen Bruehl, whose new paper suggests something in near-Earth space was flashing sunlight onto the photographic plates at Palomar Observatory years before Sputnik ever reached orbit. Projected back down to the ground, those flashes don't scatter at random. They cluster over some very familiar places, including the Pacific off Southern Mexico near where the Nimitz Tic-Tac encounter took place in 2004, the southern Gulf of Mexico off Tampico and the American Southwest around Sedona and White Sands Missile Range.
The nuclear connection gets even stranger. On the night before Castle Yankee, the 13.5-megaton hydrogen bomb detonated at Bikini Atoll in May 1954, 203 high-probability transients appeared over the Pacific, while the transients tied to Nevada tests fell over Arizona and New Mexico instead.
Coulthart plays the debunker for much of the hour, pressing the pair on plate defects, cosmic rays, radioactive fallout, survey bias and whether enough statistical tests will always turn up a hit. They also discuss independent work by former Hubble scientist Ivo Busko, whose plates from a German observatory show the same spike in transients on April 4, 1956, that appears in the Palomar data. By the end, Villarroel says she believes they're looking at some kind of surveillance system, Bruehl puts the odds of nonhuman monitoring at better than 50% and both confirm the three-letter agencies have taken notice.

In this episode of "Reality Check," Ross Coulthart sits down with Canadian documentary filmmaker Darcy Weir, whose films "Dark Alliance" and "Dark Alliance: The Next Generation" examine the secret space program stories promoted by Corey Goode, David Wilcock and the New Age conference circuit. Weir describes a 2022 deposition in which Goode stated he had never physically been to space, the copyright actions that took his earlier film offline and the 20 and Back, Dark Fleet and med bed accounts that spread through Gaia TV programming.
Coulthart and Weir separate that mythology from the documented record of covert space activity, from the Manned Orbiting Laboratory and the X-37B to Gary McKinnon's account of his NASA intrusion, before turning to David Wilcock's final years as a director at Stavatti Aerospace and a company statement, read on air, about an insider's "space fighter" drawing that turned out to be a canceled Navy attack aircraft. The final stretch covers orbital encounters witnessed by NASA astronauts and recorded by military satellites, including the Skylab 3 object, the Air Force Fast Walker database, DSP Flight 7 and STS-80 imagery now listed as unidentified in the government's Pursue release.

▶️ Rise of the TR3B: https://youtu.be/iAW7N5Q7vv4?si=vx4JHpXz6uWHIUkp
Over a 13-year career, Weir has produced over 20 independent documentary productions, including 18 feature-length documentaries and two specialized TV docuseries. While his work is widely accessible to mainstream audiences via major streaming giants, including Amazon Prime and Apple TV, he is also dedicated to releasing high-quality investigations directly to the public.
🌍 Puerto Rico's UAP
The 2013 Aguadilla Homeland Security incident is the most analyzed UAP footage ever captured. Hard data, real answers.

Weir has become a high-profile figure within the global "Disclosure Movement," highly respected for his ability to make complex, enigmatic information accessible and engaging to the general public. He focuses on the human element behind extraordinary events.
📡 Pascagoula 73
1973. Two fishermen. One encounter that changed everything. Still unexplained 50 years later.

Because of his investigative rigor, Weir is a frequent speaker at UAP/UFO conferences, a recurring guest on top-tier podcasts, and a lecturer on the findings uncovered throughout his filmmaking career. He approaches the subject with a critical eye, aiming to protect genuine disclosure by holding the community accountable.
🎬 Dark Alliance: The Next Generation
Not everything in the disclosure space is truth. This one teaches you how to tell the difference.

Ross Coulthart explores mysterious untold stories using a fact-based approach to address various topics, from unidentified aerial phenomena to other mysteries that often go unreported. Now, he is turning to viewers, answering their pressing questions each week.
In this week's episode of "Reality Check," Coulthart tackles questions about why he believes "catastrophic disclosure" may be inevitable, the science behind the wormholes in “Interstellar" following newly declassified Pentagon documents and the U.S. Space Force's surprise announcement that it deployed weapons to space. He also shares an Australian soldier's previously unreported UAP sighting from Afghanistan and dives into meditation, near-death experiences and consciousness research. Ross is also joined by a listener, who provides a deep dive into Steven Spielberg's father and uncle, who allegedly worked at Wright Field during the Roswell wreckage recovery and raises the question of whether Spielberg's films are a form of soft disclosure.
