American Alchemy – Details, episodes & analysis

James C. Fox is an American documentary filmmaker, and perhaps the most important UFO documentarian of all time: from classics like Out of the Blue (2003) to I know what I saw (2014) to the maybe seminal UFO documentary in history, The Phenomenon (2020), James has fearlessly documented UFO crashes and encounters with otheworldly beings around the world. So we decided to pay him homage and make him a (mini) documentary back!

He's won awards from the Royal Aeronautical Society in the Defense, Business, Technology, and Propulsion categories and is the last thing from a UFO nut. But in the early 90's he stumbled across an article about Antigravity that would change his life forever. This interview covers his decade long exploration into the most secretive compartments of aviation history -- the quest for antigravity. It takes him from Nazi Germany, to a forgotten American inventor named Thomas Townsend Brown until more contemporary gravity researchers today. Please enjoy this long form conversation with him!

David Grusch is a former 14-year high ranking intelligence officer who left government in early '23 to blow the whistle on UFO’s. In 2019, he was tasked by the National Geospatial Intelligence Agency and Pentagon to investigate UFO’s as part of the Unidentified Anomalous Phenomenon Task Force (or UAPTF). In that context, he slowly started to uncover a covert UFO reverse engineering program being concealed from the civilian government. In June of '23, he outed himself to the public. In July of '23, he testified before Congress. We sat down for hours and talked about the entire history of UFO's, UFO and Atomic secrecy, Presidents and their relationships to UFO's and the insane world of Anti-Gravity research.

Graham explores various archeological sites across the globe that show in fact our civilization is much older than this. In this raw longform interview we discuss the secrets of Atlantis, the ark of the covenant, DMT as a window into the spirit world and of course, UFOs and aliens.

Jacque Vallee is the legendary French UFO researcher who formed the basis for Steven Spielberg's eccentric scientist in Close Encounters of The Third Kind. He has worked with every prominent player in UFOology since the 60's including Dr. J. Alan Hynek who served as the Chief Science Advisor to project Blue Book, the Airforce's UFO investigation program from 52'-69'. Vallee has written multiple groundbreaking books that suggest "aliens" are actually interdimensional entities codirecting human evolution, not new visitors from Space. In this interview, he makes some fascinating new suggestions around the nature of these entities; we also discuss a real, secret project behind Project Bluebook, his model of reality and time and the commercial group that holds the secrets to the American UFO story.

I spoke to  @RedPandaKoala  and former AATIP (Gov't UFO program) director Lue Elizondo about the bizarre connection between Nukes and UFOs. Why do these mysterious flying objects consistently show up around around American nuke stockpiles and enrichment sites? We get into the work of journalist Robert Hastings who has documented 100+ cases and we also speculate on some of the reasons behind the strange connection. Spoiler alert: the lame explanations you've been given are probably not right!

Blake Lemoine is the recently fired Senior Software Engineer at Google who went public this summer with his concerns around Google’s natural language system LAMDA. Blake thinks LAMDA is both sentient and shouldn’t be under the sole supervision of a private corporation. This provoked a deep, philosophical conversation about the nature of intelligence, consciousness, what will happen with AI, whether it’s aligned with human values and whether human reality is simulated.

Martin Shkreli is America’s most hated pharma bro. In 2015 he bought daraprim which treats HIV and AIDS induced toxoplasmosis and raised the price dramatically. When questioned, he trolled reporters and the public, while actually accommodating a large majority of requests that needed the drug more cheaply. In doing this, he exposed behavior engaged in constantly by big pharma. In this episode, we talk heterodox health, biology and general science.

Alex Jones started the controversial media outlet infowars over two decades ago. He’s gotten a lot wrong, but also gotten a few things very right. And is a fascinating figure worth talking to.

We also talk about his long relationship with Joe Rogan, the possibility of them starting a media outlet together, weird science, UFO's, religion and the apocalypse. We drank tequila, painted rocks and did some fun trivia. Please enjoy!!!
