The 2025 UAP Hearing - Did It Move The Needle?

Recently-retired intelligence officer David Grusch did not want to become a UFO whistleblower. Grusch spent much of his life protecting the most sensitive secrets in the world, many of them housed inside Special Access Programs that were unknown, even to congressional overseers. When Grusch uncovered evidence of illegal activity within the intelligence community, related to UFO operations and programs, he reported his suspicions to the appropriate authorities and hoped that higher-ups would address the allegations. Instead, he became a target himself. Shadowy operatives inside the intelligence community and in league with powerful defense contractors, tried to silence, punish, and discredit him. Grusch not only learned startling truths about UFO research by government employees, but also uncovered evidence of a massive and ongoing disinformation effort created to mislead congress, the media, and the public. Days ago, Grusch stepped out of the shadows and spoke publicly for the first time. UFOs are real, he says, and they are here. More than a year ago, Grusch sought the advice of journalists George Knapp and Jeremy Corbell. In this episode of WEAPONIZED, Jeremy and George tell the inside story of their friendship with Grusch, why he risked everything by coming forward, and about other government insiders and whistleblowers who are prepared to follow in Grusch's footsteps.

What happens to us after we die? Can love transcend physical death? Are time and space mere illusions? Existential and philosophical questions are at the heart of the music produced by Lord Huron, an indie band based in Los Angeles. Fans have given them the nickname of "Cosmic Cowboys" due to the nature of the subjects addressed in their songs and albums. Ghost - both literal and figurative - make frequent appearances in their lyrics, along with ancient legends, malevolent spirits, cosmological lore, and a smattering of broken hearts and lost loves. Ben Schneider, the founder of the Lord Huron, is also its lead singer and principal songwriter. Schneider grew up in the shadow of the Great Lakes where he absorbed much of the rich history of the region and the Native Americans who've lived there for centuries. His music combines elements of folk, rock, country, punk, Asian, and even surf influences. The sound is lush and multi-layered, and the songs address complicated ideas not usually found in popular music. Music critics have struggled to find a specific niche for Lord Huron, but the fan base has no such problem. In this episode. Jeremy and George ask Ben Schneider about the inspiration for his songs, pay a visit to the hidden Whispering Pines recording studio, and share video clips from Lord Huron concerts, including the current tour.

In April 2021, dozens of US Marines stationed at the sprawling Twentynine Palms base in the Mojave desert witnessed what they describe as an unusual array of lights in the night sky. These Marines, many of whom work directly with flares and other ordnance, were at the base for an extended two month training exercise. Several of them said they saw the outline of a "craft" behind the lights and, in their opinion, the lights in the sky did not resemble any of the flares that are routinely used in training exercises or that they are familiar with. Last week, in an effort to generate additional information, WEAPONIZED unveiled several videos recorded by the eyewitnesses, along with low light photos which appear to show the outline of a triangular object. The episode set off a wave of UFO coverage by major news media, inquiries from congressional staffers, and, not surprisingly, significant criticism from online UFO personalities. In this episode, Jeremy and George will share new information and interviews with Marine witnesses who came forward to respond to social media speculations and will explain why this incident remains an open, active investigation.

In the spring of 2021, almost two years to the day, dozens of U.S. Marines being trained at the sprawling base at Twentynine Palms watched in awe as a massive, triangular-shaped object sat motionless in the sky for a period of more than ten minutes. Several Marines recorded images of the triangle on their cell phones, including phones equipped with low light features. Base commanders reacted quickly to the sighting. They mobilized ground units, dispatched helicopters, and fired off flares to try and illuminate the mystery craft. Jeremy and George have obtained multiple videos and photos recorded during the incident and also interviewed several of the Marines who were present. The witnesses alternately described the object as the size of a two story house and as long as half a football field. Despite the number of qualified witnesses and the excellent images recorded during the encounter, the case was not reported up the chain of command, nor was the information shared with AARO (the All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office), the government's formal UAP investigative agency. In this episode of WEAPONIZED, Jeremy and George describe the sequence of events, share videos and photos along with recorded statements from two eyewitnesses, and also review a few other recent developments related to UAP.

During the darkest days of the Cold War, leaders in the USSR publicly described the UFO mystery as a capitalist plot, unworthy of scientific study. But behind the scenes, communist dictators held a much different view. They authorized secret scientific studies of UFOs. For decades, individual scientists and academic groups throughout the USSR surreptitiously investigated UFO cases and incidents, at the risk of imprisonment - or worse. Most of their work wasn’t made public until the fall of the USSR in the early 90’s. Journalist George Knapp traveled to Russia twice in the 90’s and spoke with scientists who had never before appeared on camera to discuss their work. In this episode, he and Jeremy Corbell review the courageous work done by Russian scientists during dangerous times. GOT A TIP?

A U.S. Senate Subcommittee chaired by Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand heard testimony this week from AARO's Dr. Sean Kirkpatrick. Gillibrand and two fellow senators asked intelligent questions in the public session, but didn't get many answers from the AARO chief. Dr. Kirkpatrick said he's seen no credible evidence of any ET tech flying in our skies. He then unveiled video of an unknown object recorded by a DOD sensor platform in the Middle East, an object eerily reminiscent of the Mosul Orb - a genuine UAP captured on video over Iraq in 2016 (first unveiled by WEAPONIZED earlier this year). Jeremy and George discuss what was learned from the Senate hearing, what the future may hold for Sean Kirkpatrick, and why future congressional hearings might hold more promise. GOT A TIP?
