Episode 45 - Trey Hudson: ASOG and The Meadow Project

Are we alone? Or are we simply looking for the wrong answers? In this episode of the official MUFON podcast, we sit down with a veteran of the U.S. Army Military Intelligence Corps and founder of the Anomalous Studies and Observation Group (ASOG), Trey Hudson. For years, the UAP community has focused on "nuts and bolts" craft analysis. Trey challenges this narrow perspective, sharing findings from a decade of deep-field research at "The Meadow" — a site of extreme high strangeness not unlike Skinwalker Ranch or Marley Woods. From disappearing heat signatures on thermal cameras to the harrowing physiological effects reported by his team, Trey explains why we must treat these phenomena as a complex, multifaceted reality that includes cryptids, consciousness, and anomalous environmental shifts. We dive into: The ASOG Approach: How to balance empirical data with human experience. Simulation Theory: Is our reality a manufactured experience? The 2027 Connection: Why some believe a major shift in our understanding is on the horizon. The Danger Factor: Why "disclosure" isn't just a political issue—it's a physical one. Join us at the MUFON Symposium 2026!!! We are bringing together the brightest minds in the field, including Trey Hudson and Commander Alex Dietrich, from August 27th to 30th.🔗 Get your tickets here: https://mufonsymposium.com
