Project Palladium was a fascinating & successful effort to deceive adversaries & radar operators via electronic countermeasures, no doubt contributing to UFO confusion. Dr. Leon Davidson wrote about what we would later know as Palladium in ECM + CIA = UFO. 3/3 www.stealthskater.com/Documents/Da...

Simone Mendez, whose contact with what appeared to be an official document detailing detection of extraterrestrial craft by the US Govt when she was in the USAF caused her months of grief and the loss of her Top Secret clearance. We give Ms. Mendez a chance to tell her story.

Standards of evidence are important because they’re how we systematically compile facts. We may then speculate or rigorously debate what facts indicate, but if we have no means for establishing reliable evidence, it is all subject to becoming meaningless conjecture.

We'll start API Live in about 2 weeks with Episode 0. It will be largely unscripted, although some of the investigation deep dives will need some structure.

In 2020, Jack Brewer (@jackbrewer.bsky.social) & Erica Lukes (@ericalukes.bsky.social) addressed the ties between NICAP, ufology & the intel community. They stressed the importance of recognizing patterns over the decades that can help us see manipulation in the topic today.

It’s nearly impossible to explain evidence-based information to people who do not respect critical thinking & standards of evidence in the first place. To avoid ‘garbage in, garbage out’, we must first learn how to learn. We are otherwise ill-equipped for the internet labyrinth.
