Bryan welcomes Nick Pope, author, commentator, and former employee of the British Government’s Ministry of Defense. He’s an expert on UFOs, conspiracy theories and outer space, and is known for his level-headed views. Pope is considered to be the media’s ‘go-to,’ person, having appeared on such TV shows as UFOs Declassified and Ancient Aliens. He also worked as a consultant on the films War of The Worlds, The Day the Earth Stood Still and The X Files.
The author of 6 best-selling books, Pope discusses what drew him into the paranormal world and then delves into a series of reported sightings focusing on three in particular. Rendlesham Forest in Suffolk, England is often billed as the ‘British Roswell,’ where it was claimed that alien craft landed there. However, the sighting has been the source of tremendous debate and speculation among UFO enthusiasts. Pope discusses the controversial Chilbolton Crop Circle that appeared in 2001, in Hampshire, England, on farmland adjacent to the Chilbolton radio telescope… home of the Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence Institute. The circle’s design is believed to be a response to the Arecibo message which SETI transmitted into space in 1974.
Pope also addresses the US/Soviet Union involvement in the search for alien life. He and Bryan then explore the 1994 Ariel School UFO incident outside Ruwa, Zimbabwe, where 62 school–aged children claimed they saw one or more creatures dressed in black, who approached them and telepathically communicated a message with an environmental theme.
